Detail of Shir-Dar (inside, to the Right of the Entrance). Samarkand
In the center of Samarkand is the Registan complex, consisting of three madrasah (religious schools). The second madrasah is the Shir-Dar, built in 1619–36 during the Bukhara Astrakhanid dynasty. Rectangular in plan, the two-story arcaded structure contained scholars’ cells along an interior courtyard. This view shows the remarkable ceramic decoration on the courtyard side of the main iwan arch. Panels of Perso-Arabic inscriptions in the cursive Naskh manner are set within strips of floral motifs. Especially notable is the faience mosaic in the center, with a vase supporting the intricate figure of a bush, or tree of life. Remnants of a similar design are visible on the inner face of the arch (on left). All the figures are surrounded by intertwined tendrils. The image is by Russian photographer Sergei Mikhailovich Prokudin-Gorskii (1863–1944), who used a special color photography process to create a visual record of the Russian Empire in the early 20th century. Some of Prokudin-Gorskii’s photographs date from about 1905, but the bulk of his work is from between 1909 and 1915, when, with the support of Tsar Nicholas II and the Ministry of Transportation, he undertook extended trips through many different parts of the empire. During a trip in 1911 he gave special attention to the Islamic architecture of Samarkand (present-day Uzbekistan).

The BCRA together with Casa de Moneda Argentina (Argentina’s Mint) designed a new banknote series that represents the return of historical personalities to paper money, thus honoring the national heroines and heroes who, at decisive times, forged our history.
The new banknote series was announced by the President of Argentina, Alberto Fernández; the BCRA’s President, Miguel Pesce; and the former BCRA’s President and current Head of the Federal Administration of Public Revenue, Mercedes Marcó del Pont, at the Bicentennial Museum of Casa Rosada.
New Banknote Series
The new banknote series has four denominations that include three women and three men who played a crucial role in nation-building, relevant figures who broke the mold of their times and fought for independence, development, inclusion and recognition of rights.
The unique and innovative feature is that two of the denominations pay homage to two personalities in the same banknote. The new series consists of the following banknotes:
ARS100: María Eva Duarte de Perón
ARS200: Martín Miguel de Güemes and Juana Azurduy
ARS500: María Remedios del Valle and Manuel Belgrano
ARS1000: José de San Martín
As well as recovering the historical personalities, another new feature of this series is that banknotes will once again be read horizontally on both sides.
The new series, which keeps the same colors for each denomination and the same size of the current banknotes, will be part of current money in circulation.
These new banknotes are the result of a joint work carried out by the design teams of the BCRA and Casa de Moneda Argentina.
ARS100. María Eva Duarte de Perón was the promoter of Law No.13,010 on women’s suffrage in 1947, a groundbreaking law that established equal political rights between men and women. She was a woman of great importance in the fight for the recognition of more social and labor rights in our country and highly respected at an international level. She got married to Juan Domingo Perón and actively participated in the campaign that resulted in his election as President of Argentina in 1946. Eva was not a traditional First Lady; she was fully involved in political and social activities. She founded the Partido Peronista Femenino (Peronist Women Party) and played a key role in the relationship with trade unions. A huge part of social aid was channeled through the Eva Peron Foundation until her early death in 1952. She left an indelible mark as an upholder of social and labor rights, and enthusiastic promoter of measures in favor of women's equality, and greater inclusion for the most underprivileged sectors.
ARS200. In this case, a hero and a heroine are together in the same banknote. Martín Miguel de Güemes was part of the reconquest and defense of Buenos Aires during the British invasions to the Viceroyalty of the Río de la Plata, and then he played an important role in the War of Independence. He was Governor of the province of Salta and leader of the Gaucho War, the fierce resistance that preserved the northern territories of the country. Los infernales, (the infernal fighters), his forces, made up of gauchos and countrymen on horseback, were able to stop numerous royalist advances. His successful defensive work allowed San Martín to organize the liberating army of the Andes. Juana Azurduy is one of the most important heroines of the independence. Her involvement in the wars against the royalists is recognized with honors by Bolivia and Argentina. She took up arms in a society that denied women's access to the militia, organized and commanded battalions and managed to mobilize thousands of natives and mixed-race people in favor of the cause of independence. Belgrano gave her his sword as a present. She reached the rank of lieutenant colonel and joined the troops of Martín Miguel de Güemes. In 2009, the Argentine government posthumously promoted her to the rank of General.
ARS500. María Remedios del Valle is a heroine of the War of Independence. She had to face all the prejudices and limitations of the time for being a woman and an Afro descendant. She was an assistant in the British Invasions and, after the May Revolution, she fought in the Army of the North. Belgrano appointed her Captain for her bravery. She received a gunshot wound, was captured by royalists and publicly flogged. After years of neglect and misery, her work was recognized and she reached the rank of sergeant major. In her honor, Law No.26,852 establishes November 8 as the National Day of Afro-Argentines. Manuel Belgrano, the creator of the national flag, was one of the | [

A Pharisee’s Primer on Free Will
For many people today it is astonishing that Jesus puts such a value on the sovereign rights of God’s electing freedom that he would speak the way he does to those who refuse him. He speaks in such a way as to prevent them from boasting that they can overrule the ultimate purposes of God. For example, in John 10:25-26 Jesus responded to the skeptics who demanded more and more proof: “I told you, and you do not believe. The works that I do in my Father’s name they bear witness to me; but you do not believe, because you do not belong to my sheep.” Think about this for a moment. Think about what it means, and think about the fact that Jesus would dare to say it to unbelievers….
Picture yourself as a Pharisee hearing the message of Jesus and saying to yourself, “If he thinks I am going to be sucked into this movement along with the tax collectors and sinners, he’s crazy. I have a will of my own and the power to determine my own destiny.” And then picture Jesus, knowing what is in your heart, and saying, “You boast in your heart that you are in control of your life. You think that you can frustrate the ultimate plans of my ministry. You think that the great purposes of God in salvation are dependent on your wavering will. Truly, truly I say unto you, the ultimate reason you do not believe is because the Father has not chosen you to be among my sheep.” In other words, Jesus is saying, “The final boast of unbelief is destroyed by the doctrine of election.” Those whom God chose, he also gave to the Son; and those whom he gave to the Son, the Son also called; and for those whom he called, he laid down his life; and to them he gave eternal joy in the presence of his glory. This is the Father’s pleasure.

A single parent is a parent who raises a child without another parent in the same household. Single parenthood may be a result of situations like divorce, prison, the death of a spouse, adoption, or artificial insemination.
Being a single parent is not easy. The following suggestions may help your family:
- Provide a stable home and steady child care. Check out child care options carefully before you choose one. Visit the child-care center or watch how the babysitter treats your child. Try to avoid changing caregivers at the same time you make other major changes.
- Create a daily routine and try to stick to it 7 days a week. It helps if your child wakes up and goes to bed at about the same time every day, and if you eat meals together on a regular schedule. It also helps to pick your child up from child care at an expected time. At the same time, don’t be too rigid with rules and routines. Children need to learn that sometimes things do change. Find a healthy balance.
- Plan regular visits with the other parent if possible. Staying in contact with the other parent, by phone or email, or by visiting in person, is usually good for your child. Your child will do better if he knows that both parents love him.
- Discipline consistently. Be specific about what is OK and what is not OK. Notice good behavior and praise your child. Use methods such as time-outs or job grounding when your child misbehaves. Job grounding means that you ground your child until he completes a job. Setting limits can be hard when you don’t have another adult to back you up. Don’t bribe your child or try to buy his affection.
- Don’t put your child in the middle. If you are raising your child in 2 different homes, don’t ask your child to carry messages between parents. Don’t ask your child to give you information about the other parent, or to choose sides in adult battles.
- Answer questions about the other parent briefly. Answer only the questions that are asked. If you are angry, scared, or hurt by the other parent, talk it over with another adult, not with your child.
- Spend time with your child each day. Spend at least 15 minutes a day one-on-one with your child without any distractions. Sit down on the floor and play with younger children. With older children, take the time to sit down with each of them and talk about the day, their friends or their problems. This can be calming and reassuring for both parent and child.
- Start and keep family traditions. For example, make a holiday ornament every year with the year’s events on it, have game night every Friday night, or make chili every Halloween.
- Set up a good support system. This is important for both you and your child. It may include extended family, a play group for your child, neighbors, friends, or parenting groups. Organizations such as Big Brothers or Big Sisters can help provide another adult in your child’s life. Raising children is not easy, and you need support when you are frustrated or exhausted.
- Be active in your child’s school. This helps you to meet other parents and have something to talk about with your child. Let your child’s teachers or school counselors know that you are a single parent. They can help watch for problems and support your child.
- Take care of yourself. Take care of yourself physically by eating right, exercising and getting enough sleep. Also, take care of yourself emotionally. Develop a social life separate from your child. This could include an exercise group, book club, or church group.
- Remember that your child is still a child. Even when you are lonely or sad, don’t turn to your child for sympathy or treat him like an adult friend. Talk with your family and friends, or see a counselor.
- Be aware of your child’s feelings when you start dating. Dating can be a challenge, depending on the age of your child. At first, it may be easier on your child for you to meet your date away from home. Your young child may get attached quickly to adults who spend time with them. This means that your child may get upset if you stop dating someone. Your older child may feel jealous or threatened if he has to share you with a stranger.
- Seek professional help if serious problems develop. Feelings of grief or loss are common after divorce or death of one parent. Individual or family counseling can provide support for both you and your child.
- Help your child learn about money. Going from a two-parent home to a single-parent home may mean less income. You may have to cut back on expenses. Explain about your finances, but try not to let your child worry. Find ways for your child to help, such as cutting out | [

This is the newest addition to our sword family, a pirate style cutlass with a solid design and intricate detail. The sword is almost perfectly balanced with a solid steel guard and full knuckle style guard. The fittings of the sword are very impressive with a detailed skull and cross bones on the scabbard throat. The sword was made to impress on all levels. A real pirate cutlass will have the hand guard, or "bell" on only one side, The reason for this is so that at night the sword could be fastened more securely to a wall, so all the rocking of the boat would not knock it down, also space was precious but you still want some hand defense. Because of this these swords will mount quite well on a wall in your home as well! The Cutlass was a short slashing sword, ideal for the close- quarters battles aboard great sailing ships. It has developed a reputation as the pirate weapon of choice and this version by Denix exploits this connection, with the Skull-and-Crossbones emblazoned on the scabbard throat. Excellent for piratical re-creations!

Gair is under a death sentence.
He can hear music – music with power – and in the Holy City that means only one thing: he’s a witch, and he’s going to be burnt at the stake. Even if he could escape, the Church Knights and their witchfinder would be hot on his heels while his burgeoning power threatens to tear him apart from within.
There is no hope…
… none, but a secretive order, themselves persecuted almost to destruction. If Gair can escape, if he can master his own growing, dangerous abilities, if he can find the Guardians of the Veil, then maybe he will be safe.
Or maybe he’ll discover that his fight has only just begun.
Songs of the Earth is another great 2011 debut. Harkening back to a more traditional fantasy feel, it made me feel warm and comfy in its pages. It felt both familiar and new, as there is a sort of ‘Chosen One’ feel about its protagonist Gair, but nobody comes out and says it. There is no prophecy he has to follow, no magical McGuffin to help him complete a quest. It really isn’t a prophecy-driven book; instead it’s just good old-school epic fantasy, in my opinion.
The world building in Songs of the Earth is fantastic. What really stood out for me were the pieces of scripture Ms Cooper created for the Eadorian Church. They give an authentic and well-rounded feel to at least the Church-side of this culture and through some of the chapters featuring Ansel and some of Gair’s discussions with Darin on Church history we get an even more well-rounded view. The same can be said of Ms Cooper’s magic system. This too is well-rounded, though still mysterious, with little of the actual ‘mechanics’ of the magic revealed. All we really know it’s song-based – everything has its own musical signature – and not everyone gifted with the ability to hear the Song, has the same aptitudes or strength in the powers at play. I’d love to see some more details on the mechanics, but that’s just because I love that sort of thing. Another strong point is the different nationalities and races found in the book. While the world of Songs of the Earth seems in a large part Western-European inspired, with its Northmen and Leahn, who feel somewhat Scandinavian in appearance and a religion which seems to have some familiarity with the Christian one, there are other cultures out there, such as the Southern desert peoples where Aysha came from, the sea elves Masen encounters and the Astolan people, with their White Court and long-lived people. And before you say, oh no elves, let me stress that what I particularly loved about the Astolan is how they are introduced into the narrative—without even any emphasis on any link to elves. Ms Cooper even has Tanith joke about it, when they discuss – inaccurate – Astolan descriptions in literature, telling Gair about Astolan ears: “Completely unpointed, as you can see”. That line definitely made me chuckle out loud.
Besides great world building, Cooper also manages to people her book with interesting characters. Gair is a great protagonist, somewhat naive, but definitely not stupid or too innocent for his age. I really liked his development; he grows up over the course of the novel from a somewhat naive young man to someone who has accepted the blows life has dealt him and risen above them. By the end of the book, Gair has a purpose and goal he wants to reach with his life and, though it might not be the wisest or most rational desire, I’m sure following him as he tries to attain his goal is going to be interesting. As stated above, there is a hint of the Chosen one about Gair and Alderan is the wise one to Gair’s Chosen one. He is the character who knows where Gair needs to go and what’s next, but at the same time he is shown to be fallible and admits it ungrudgingly. I liked the school setting of Chapterhouse where Alderan takes Gair, though we see remarkably little of Gair’s education. Instead of focusing on Gair’s lessons, Ms Cooper chooses to focus on Gair’s interactions and relationships with his fellow students, such as Darin, Arlin and Sorchal, and some of the Masters, such as Aysha, swords master Harlan, and Tanith, one of the healers. I loved the friendship Gair forms with Darin and the rapport he builds with Tanith. But I loved his relationship with Aysha the most. Both because I’m an incurable romantic and because, like Gair himself at first, I kept getting the feeling that it wasn’t right, that it would | [

The City of Woodbury is very fortunate to have lakes, wetlands and storm water ponds within the city. A total of 698 water bodies are currently counted as part of the surface water system in the city. Many of these are used for stormwater treatment. Urban development typically increases run-off due to the added impervious surfaces, such as roads and rooftops. For example, the total run-off from a one-acre parking lot is about 16 times that of an undeveloped meadow.
What is a Stormwater Pond?
Stormwater ponds are treatment ponds designed to improve water quality. Thick growths of algae or other nuisance aquatic plants in ponds and lakes typically come from various sources of pollution. Pollution sources could include:
- Dust and dirt
- Lawn clippings
- Construction sediment
- Oils, greases and automotive additives
- Lawn-care products such as fertilizers or pesticides
- Animal debris or waste
- Wind-blown chemicals
As these materials enter into the stormwater system, they can have a detrimental effect on water quality, resulting in blue-green algae blooms or excess weed growth.
Stormwater ponds are designed primarily for water quality treatment and flood control. Residents are prohibited from altering any aspect of a city owned and maintained storm water pond. Aesthetic issues on privately-owned ponds are the homeowner's responsibility. | [

The Paleo Diet - A Review from a Dietitian
Let’s chat about another diet that is still very popular in diet culture and needs to be debunked. The Paleo Diet. The Paleolithic Diet also referred to as the “caveman” diet is a diet centered around the idea that eating like our Paleolithic era ancestors from 12,000 years ago best aligns with our genetics and will lead to overall better health and decreased disease. The theory behind this diet arose from the idea that chronic diseases present in today’s society were due to the agricultural revolution. Proponents of the diet suggest that as society added grains, legumes, potatoes, refined sugars, vegetable oils, and dairy to their meals, chronic diseases and conditions rapidly rose. The claim is that as these foods appeared, it was associated with an increase in inflammation leading to chronic conditions such as heart disease, cancer, and diabetes. Let’s break down this diet a little more.
Concerns about the Paleo Diet
Some of the biggest concerns regarding the Paleo Diet is its elimination of some incredibly important food groups. The diet cuts out both dairy products and grains entirely from one’s diet. Not only does this type of elimination set you up for nutritional deficiencies, but it also may lead to an over focus on food leading to an unhealthy relationship with nutrition and possible disordered eating habits.
With the elimination of dairy products, this diet can put you at an increased risk for deficiencies in both calcium and vitamin D. These deficiencies are known to cause decreased bone health and conditions such as osteoporosis and bone fractures.
This diet also calls for the elimination of grains and legumes. Fiber-rich legumes, including beans, lentils, and peas are completely eliminated. However, research consistently proves the positive connection between these foods and reduced risk of chronic disease. Not only that, grains and legumes are essential for vitamins and minerals, energy, and fiber that can be incredibly important for proper nutrition. In fact, research actually shows that humans best benefit from getting a variety of foods in their diet. The elimination of these options in the Paleo diet decreases one’s variety and cuts out some very important nutrients.
The paleo diet is also incredibly restrictive. This diet, as mentioned before, cuts out entire food groups leading to a demonization of some really important nutrient-dense foods (i.e. carbs, legumes, and dairy). With this mindset of “yes” and “no” foods, one can begin to develop a restrictive mindset around nutrition in general. This restriction inevitably takes up a lot of headspace regarding food which can lead to an unhealthy relationship with one’s nutrition and body, possibly leading to disordered eating habits.
Another note that is important here is that people living in the Paleolithic period or “cave people” ate whatever their surroundings offered them. Thus, lumping the Paleo diet into a “high-protein” diet is inaccurate as Paleolithic people ate differently every single day depending on where they lived. Those people living thousands of years ago also did not live to the age where chronic diseases typically emerge. With that being said, we are not biologically identical to our Paleolithic ancestors and have access to foods that Paleolithic people did not have (thank goodness for farming and agriculture!). With that being said, people now are incredibly different today than they were then. With human advancement and life longevity has come a necessary and positive change to nutrition and lifestyle. Besides this, there is also no evidence that proves that the Paleo diet is beneficial to one’s overall health long-term.
Diets like the Paleo diet are never harmless. They can cause potential long-term damage to both one’s mental and physical health. The elimination of complete food groups not only can put one in nutritional deficiency but can also cause a continuation of the negative diet culture mentality. Plus, it further encourages the messaging that you don’t know how to feed your body. At Untamed, our recommendation will always be to embrace intuitive eating and begin to reestablish a healthy relationship with your body and nutrition separate from diet culture.

Budar named at Citroën
French squad announces Matton replacement
Pierre Budar has replaced Yves Matton as head of Citroën Racing.
Budar, a longtime employee of the French squad’s parent PSA Group, has been named Director of Citroën Racing following Matton’s decision to join the FIA as rally director.
He takes up the reins with immediate effect and will be in charge of the Citroën Total Abu Dhabi squad at next week’s opening round of the FIA World Rally Championship, Rallye Monte-Carlo (25 - 28 January).
“Groupe PSA has given me a unique opportunity to reconcile my passion for motorsport with an engineering career. I never imagined one day running one of the most prestigious competition teams in the world,” said 53-year-old Budar.
“I measure the challenge that is proposed to me at the head of an extraordinary team and I will strive to obtain the best of its talents.”
Budar joined PSA in 1989 as an engineer and drove for the Peugeot Talbot Sport team in 1991 in a Group N 309 car.
He worked in France and Asia before setting up the group’s road performance car development department in 2010.
He took on responsibility for the group’s customer competition activities in 2016 and was influential in the development of Citroën’s C3 R5 rally car.

One of the big benefits of using an app like Procreate for your art is having the power of technology behind you.
In this tutorial, we’ll be talking about how that power can be used to save time creating your art. How so? By optimizing your use of Procreat’s gesture controls. This lets you use Procreate’s default shortcuts, and then customize them to your own needs!
Let’s start by clearing something up. What we’re diving into in this tutorial is Procreate shortcuts. This is a general term we’re used to hearing that refers to buttons, actions, keystrokes, etc that activate a feature.
Procreate has a specific word they use instead of “shortcuts.” They use the word “gestures.” I may use the words shortcuts and gestures interchangeably since they mean the same thing.
Alright, let’s jump in!
There are a LOT of Procreate gestures, so I’ll try to run through them thoroughly, but expediently. At the end, I’ll also talk about my favorite ways of customizing my own gestures based on my experience using Procreate.
I’ve split these gestures and shortcuts into categories based on their essential functions. To get started, we’ll look at gestures you can use while drawing with your stylus in Procreate.
Undo and Redo
If you want to undo a brush stroke/action, or series of brush strokes/actions, use two fingers to tap on your Procreate canvas.
If you want to redo a brush stroke/action, or series of brush strokes/actions, use three fingers to tap on your Procreate canvas.
I have a full guide on Procreate’s undo and redo features that’s great to check out for more information on these awesome gestures.
The undo gesture is probably the Procreate gesture I use the most in my own work. Yes, I make a lot of mistakes, and love that I can undo them with a simple two finger tap!
Hold the Eraser to Change it to Your Current Brush
If you’re drawing with a brush you like, you can quickly and easily switch your eraser to that brush as well by holding down on the eraser icon.
This saves you the hassle of having to scroll through your brush library to find the one you want to use for your eraser.
Hold Down on the Brush Cursor and Move Away for Better Precision
If you want to adjust your brush size more precisely, hold your stylus down on the brush size slider. Start dragging your stylus across your canvas, away from your brush size slider. Then, move your stylus up and down.
You’ll notice that the farther away your stylus is from your brush size slider, the more precisely it will adjust your brush size as you move your stylus up and down.
Hold a Shape for QuickShape
Even if you have a brush’s stabilization settings dialed in, it can be really hard to draw shapes.
With QuickShape, just quickly draw your basic shape and hold your stylus down. Your shape will snap to a clean and crisp shape. You can then edit it from there if you need to make adjustments.
I have a full guide on QuickShape that you can dive into if you want to learn more.
Create a Perfect Shape with a Finger in QuickShape
After creating your QuickShape, before lifting up your stylus, tap a finger down on your canvas. This will make your QuickShape snap to a “perfect” version of that shape.
Once you tap your finger down, hold it there. Then, move your stylus around to adjust the size and rotation of your shape.
Now we’re going to look at Procreate gestures and shortcuts relating to layers.
Clear a Layer with Three Finger Scrub
If you want to clear the contents of a layer, use three fingers to scrub your canvas (swish your fingers back and forth like you’re scrubbing away dirt).
The shape you want to make with your three fingers as you scrub your canvas is similar to the one below.
This can take some practice though, especially if you have finger drawing turned on.
Alright, the rest of the layer gestures and shortcuts are going to be done within the layers panel. Tap on the square icon at the top of your screen to open your layers panel.
Pinch your Layers Together to Merge Them
If you want to merge your layers together, you can pinch them together.
For example, if you want to merge 4 layers together, put one finger on the first layer and your other finger on the fourth layer. Pinch these fingers together to merge these four layers.
This is really efficient if you have a number of layers you want to merge together in one swoop. Otherwise, you would have to merge them manually, one-by | [

Extinguishing with PYROsmart®
The PYROsmart® system is capable of more than just localizing fire hazards.
Unlike standard detectors, PYROsmart® can also trigger extinguishing with different types of extinguishing systems, as well as automatically control targeted extinguishing.
Multiple extinguishing systems can be implemented, ranging from deluge extinguishing systems and cooling specific areas through to automatic targeted extinguishing using a wide range of fire-monitor extinguishers.
PYROsmart® is a master at automatic targeted extinguishing
A hotspot that has been quickly cooled (“extinguished”) is the best protection against fires. Automatically extinguishing a possible source of fire in a targeted manner requires the maximum from the technology being used. Orglmeister’s development team has many years of experience in this discipline so is able to provide exceptionally reliable and intelligent control for fire-monitor extinguisher systems.
Control data comes from the 3D localization of hotspots in the monitored area. The pan/tilt system processes spatial data with pinpoint accuracy and is positioned at the installation site in such a way that it can optimally “see” and scan the detection area. Using the patented abiroVision® software, this creates panoramic thermal imaging with pinpoint localization of hazardous temperatures and/or hotspots. To prevent a fire as quickly as possible, specialized software uses infrared localization to control an electronically operated fire-monitor extinguisher.
This requires precision calculation of the direction as well as optimal nozzle positioning and delivery distance. The PYROsmart® software masters these requirements with special components and fire-monitor extinguishers. A single PYROsmart® system and fire-monitor extinguisher can then be used to provide fire protection monitoring and extinguishing for an area of approx. 5,000 m², and with minimal installation effort.
The merits of this type of firefighting are compelling:
- Early, targeted extinguishing of hotspots and emerging fires
- Minimal use of extinguishing agents
- Unaffected areas remain protected
- Operational interruptions are avoided
- No disposal expenses for large-scale extinguishing incidents
Any fire-monitor extinguisher system that can be controlled via IP or CAN bus connections can be integrated.
According to where a hotspot has been detected, the nearest fire monitor extinguishes it at a jet setting optimized for the distance. This achieves quick and optimal extinguishing via electronic water jet adjustment.
Minimal extinguishing agents are used, resulting in minimal damage to any stored goods. An intelligent and highly effective method of fire prevention.
PYROsmart® EXTING-eco is intelligent extinguishing software that independently triggers fire-monitor extinguishing and extinguishes the area around a detected hotspot.
PYROsmart® EXTING-pro is even more efficient and automatically adjusts control of the extinguishing system (smart extinguishing control). Compared to EXTING-eco, this means that more extinguishing agent reaches the source of the fire and thus offers maximum precision for “targeted fire fighting”.
Sector extinguishing and belt extinguishing
By using PLC extinguishing control, PYROsmart® can also trigger extinguishing of, for example, individual bays, chutes and bunkers, as well as conveyor belt extinguishing using spray nozzles. Extinguishing is then sector-based rather than targeted.
In the event of a hotspot being detected, intelligently adapted extinguishing strategies also enable preventive cooling of adjacent at-risk areas (e.g., gas tanks), thereby providing such areas with additional protection.

Wide range of extinguishing agents for fire fighting
Water is the most commonly used extinguishing agent because of its availability, and because it is harmless to humans, environmentally friendly and inexpensive. Water extinguishes because it cools burning materials. Evaporation of extinguishing water removes so much energy from the combustive reaction that it can no longer continue and the fire is hence extinguished.
Extinguishing success can be further improved by adding film-forming foaming agents. The cooling effect is enhanced because the surface-active agents contained in the foaming agent reduce the water’s surface tension, allowing it to penetrate deeper into the burning material. In addition to this cooling effect, the formation of a foam blanket cuts the burning material off from further oxygen supply, thereby suffocating the fire. Applications using foam extinguishing systems are for fire classes A and B, i.e., solid and liquid fires.
One disadvantage of foam extinguishing systems is that foam must be disposed of properly after use, resulting in extra expense. Targeted extinguishing reduces the required amount of extinguishing agent and minimizes disposal costs.
A special surface-acting agent can also be added to extinguishing water. This additive also significantly reduces the | [

How does interest rates affect real estate?
I have to write a 3 page paper about this. I already know the basics of this answer but what more can I write other than high interest rates make your mortgage more expensive in
- Anonymous6 years agoFavorite Answer
Lower interest rates allow more people to be able qualify to purchase a home, thus more people can afford to purchase. At the same time because more people are able to purchase homes it reduces the amount of homes on the the market (reduces the supply) which in turn pushes up the cost.
Conversely, when interest rates are high fewer buyers are able to qualify for a loan which increases supply. Over supply tends to push prices lower.
I've heard that whenever interest rates rise.25% it disqualifies about 100,000 people/families from being able to purchase. In times of high employment artificially low interest rates tend to over-heat the real estate market, and the economy in general, by increasing demand. We saw that a few years ago when the RE market balloon out of control and eventually blew up and prices tumbled and foreclosures skyrocketed.
Generally speaking lower interest rates effects home buying more favorably even if it tends to reduces the supply. The most negative factor that effects home values and purchasing a home is a high unemployment rate. In todays real estate market with both the lowest prices in recent times and interest rates at 50+ year lows, because of double digit unemployment rates the RE market is still in the toilet in most areas.
High unemployment also means more foreclosures which in turn forces values down because it increases supply. At the same time the high foreclosure rate reduces the supply of rentals, thus increases demand for rent units which helps drive up the cost of rentals..***:D
- glennLv 76 years ago
I have sold houses for 36 years. If interest rates go up it does make the homes less affordable. In the early 1980's one weekend the mortgage rates jumped from 9.5% to 13.5 % from Friday to Monday.
All the sudden people that thought they could afford a $150,000 home were instead having to look at a $90,000 home. The much lower demand also pulled sale prices down and drove builders out of business.
But a small rise in rates can actually drive buyers to buy quickly if they fear rates will go up even higher soon- sometimes a small drop in rates can entice people to wait to buy in case rates continue to go down. This is a pretty complicated relationship. | [

The city of Helena is looking to reconstruct two chaotic five-point intersections. They're so chaotic, they've even earned the term malfunction junction.
No one has been hit in either area this year. However, long wait times encourage some people to jay walk. Plus, the cross walks can be very confusing.
"They aren't extremely dangerous right now because the amount of traffic. You aren't getting the high speeds that can come in there, but it is an obstruction to pedestrians," said Ryan Leland, City Engineer.
However, public safety isn't the main push for altering routes. Two groups: the six-point neighborhood and the Business Improvement District say the street layouts limit access to businesses and homes in the areas.
They B.I.D. would like to make Last Chance Gulch a two way street and the neighborhood would like to see some traffic redirected. However, the solution isn't that simple.
"We don't really have an ideal solution because there's several solutions that are out there. Whichever one that will actually work for the community is what we’ll have to look at," said Leland.
He says says a roundabout might fix the downtown intersection. It's also possible an underpass could be installed to fix the intersection near Helena High. However, these solutions don't come cheap. It’ll cost up to $15 million to fix mini-malfunction junction, while its big brother could cost up to $30 million to mend.
“To get something like that we're either going to have to pass a very major bond, which its going to be hard to have a community this size do it, or we're going to have to get federal grants, and that can take a long time to be able to do," said Leland.
Robert Peccia and Associates are in the process of being hired to conduct the study, which could take about 12 months to complete. After that, Leland says it could be years before these malfunction junctions flow smoothly.
Similar studies on the area have been conducted in the past. Leland says the difference this time is Helena has a city commission whose not going to invest in a study without really trying to fund the project. | [

Supported multimetallic nanoparticles (NPs) are widely used in industrial catalytic processes, where the relation between surface structure and function is well-known. However, the effect of subsurface layers on such catalysts remains mostly unstudied. Here, we demonstrate a clear subsurface effect on supported 2 nm core–shell NPs with atomically precise and high temperature stable Pt3Mn intermetallic surface measured by in situ synchrotron X-ray Diffraction, difference X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy, and Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy. The NPs with a Pt3Mn subsurface have 98% selectivity to C–H over C–C bond activation during propane dehydrogenation at 550 °C compared with 82% for core–shell NPs with a Pt subsurface. The difference is correlated with significant reduction in the heats of reactant adsorption due to the Pt3Mn intermetallic subsurface as discerned by theory as well as experiment. The findings of this work highlight the importance of subsurface for supported NP catalysts, which can be tuned via controlled intermetallic formation. Such approach is generally applicable to modifying multimetallic NPs, adding another dimension to the tunability of their catalytic performance.

We Ranked the 10 Most Intriguing Portrayals of Marilyn Monroe and Can Hardly Agree on the Winner
Marilyn Monroe is probably one of the most iconic actresses of the 1950s, and audiences continue to be charmed by her. While fans were captivated by her beauty and impressed by her work, her personal struggles have also become a common topic when looking back at her life.
Over the past decades, numerous on-screen portrayals of the tragic Hollywood star have been released. From cameos and small homages to TV series, biopics, and serious dramas, we witnessed a variety of depictions of the famous blonde seductress. Today, we’re looking back at some of the most notable performances that are all unique and memorable for different reasons.
10. Blake Lively in Gossip Girl
Even if it was just a cameo and the Gossip Girl star didn’t have the chance to deep dive into Monroe’s character, we still found her performance sweet and enjoyable. Blake Lively delivered a fond tribute to the star as she channeled Monroe with poise, grace, and elegance. Unlike actresses who’ve played Monroe in more serious, dramatic roles, Lively seemed to have more freedom to come up with her own interpretation of the Hollywood legend. And viewers loved it, as it turned out to be one of the show’s most memorable moments.
9. Gillian Anderson in American Gods
Thanks to Gillian Anderson’s mastery, her portrayal of Monroe in American Gods managed to be humorous and respectful at the same time. Although the British actress doesn’t physically resemble Monroe much, her acting is still rather convincing. She managed to capture the essence of Monroe’s allure and the image of her that the majority of us see.
“I didn’t know all that much about Marilyn as much as we all know what’s in the greater consciousness,” Anderson explained, adding that she was surprised at how easy it was to immerse herself in the role.
8. Uma Thurman in Smash
In the TV series, Smash, Uma Thurman, Megan Hilty, and Catherine McPhee are all Broadway stars competing for Monroe’s role in a fictional play. Throughout the show, all 3 of them get their chance to play Monroe, but in the end, Thurman’s character lands the role. Thurman later admitted that playing the legendary Monroe was not an easy feat at all. “Marilyn’s a magical, mythical creature, so you just have to think magical, mythical thoughts when you play her,” she explained.
7. Poppy Montgomery in Blonde
Poppy Montgomery’s portrayal of Marilyn Monroe in the 2001 TV miniseries, Blonde, accurately depicted the tragic icon, especially the younger Norma Jean. Montgomery exuded the star’s wit, charm, and vulnerability. And her acting skills were so evident that we quickly looked past her lack of physical resemblance.
6. Ashley Judd in Norma Jean & Marilyn
The 2 actresses joined forces to portray Monroe in the 1966 movie, Norma Jean and Marilyn. With Ashely Judd playing the not-yet-famous Norma Jean and Mira Sorvino depicting the legendary actress after she rose to fame, they were equally convincing in their performances.
Additionally, Judd’s uncanny resemblance to the young rising star made it all more believable. Judd played the ambitious, daring Norma Jean with a lot of passion and matched the mannerisms of the young Monroe very well. For their roles, Judd and Sorvino were both nominated for Golden Globes and Primetime Emmy Awards.
5. Kelli Garner in The Secret Life of Marilyn Monroe
This 2015 TV series offers a closer look into Monroe’s troubled childhood and complex relationship with her mother, played by Susan Sarandon. The Secret Life of Marilyn Monroe lets us take a peek at Monroe’s darker side, while Kelli Garner’s performance elevates the movie. Her interpretation of the tragic icon is full of respect and vulnerability, which helps her morph into the character naturally without resorting to imitation. Garner believes that “every young actress has a little Marilyn in her.”
4. Catherine Hicks in Marilyn: The Untold Story
This 1980 TV movie starring Catherine Hicks shows the start of Monroe’s career and her difficult childhood. Hicks’ approach to the role was earnest, as her mannerisms, quotes, and even her voice accurately matched Marilyn’s. Hicks had already played Monroe in a few productions as a college student, and she felt that the iconic actress had remained a part of her. “When I think about her, I’m never thinking that it’s the adoration of a great movie star, but that she’s my older sister | [

Stuck on level 99 of Farm Hero Saga? Here are some tips!
You need to collect 10 apples in Farm Heroes level 99, with only 4 apples on the board at the beginning of the level. No more apples will fall from the top of the board which means that you need to make sure 4 apples turns into 14 by increasing their value.
First, you’ll want to make sure not to touch any of the apples until you’re sure you can get 14 points. If you move an apple, it could clear too early or make it impossible to clear all 4 later in the game. Just move other cropsies around your apples and make adjacent matches that will increase their worth.
One booster that is important to use in level 99 is the Shovel. The shovel will help you remove certain items that are in your way. Remember…you only have 14 moves, so you will want to make good use of them. Using boosters will help save your moves since using the shovel does not use up any moves. Plus this booster regenerates. If you’re finding it a close call with the green apples, you can also use the +1 booster to instantly add one bonus to any cropsy. So if you’re just one away from getting enough resources, go ahead and use it.
You’re going to have to focus a lot on making matches by the water buckets after you have collected the apples. Making matches next to the buckets three times will make them explode and add water drops to your board. Having enough water drops on the board will help you to create big matches, and meet your quota for the required water cropsies quickly.
Here's a helpful video:

Arnos Vale Cemetery Trust latest statement on coronavirus (COVID-19)March 11, 2020
Gaia, Spring and the Cemetery WildlifeApril 6, 2020
Content warning: pregnancy, birth, women’s medicine, disease, COVID-19, death, health and bowel movements.
These days, we all know that it is important to wash your hands regularly. However, in the early Victorian period people were not quite so convinced that hand washing prevented disease. Unfortunately without modern microscopes the idea of tiny ‘creatures’ or microorganisms that made you unwell was difficult to believe. In this blog we are going to introduce you to a man who saved lives through good hygiene.
When Hungarian doctor Ignaz Semmelweis suggested to his colleagues that they should wash their hands after touching a dead body to reduce maternal deaths, they had him committed to an asylum. In fact most scientists of the 19th century believed that diseases were spread through ‘Miasma’. This was a scientific theory that suggested nasty smells and rotting things caused disease. In general Victorian doctors did not subscribe to the idea that individuals could pass diseases to each other or that it is was important to wash your hands. Unfortunately for their patients, they worked with dirty hands, rarely wore masks and didn’t believe coughing or sneezing could harm their patients.
However there were a few doctors, including famed surgeon Joseph Lister, who did practice good hygiene. In fact Arnos Vale Cemetery is the last resting place of a less well-known but equally talented 19th century doctor. His name was Joseph Griffiths Swayne. Dr Swayne was the author of the wonderfully title ‘Obstetric Aphorisms for the Use of Students’. This book was a vital medical book in the 19th century for students working with women giving birth.
In addition he was involved in cholera prevention in Bristol during epidemics and helped trace the cause of the deadly disease. He was also an accomplished artist and drew images for a sadly unpublished anatomy manual. In fact the images for the book were drawings he undertook when dissecting cadavers. A medical marvel indeed.
A medical family
Dr Swayne came from a medical family; his father was a doctor and his mother was the daughter of an apothecary. Therefore it was natural that he followed in his father’s footsteps and he was apprenticed to his obstetrician father. Thankfully Joseph had great aptitude for the work and studied medicine in Bristol and Paris finally graduating in London. Whilst in Londn he received Gold Medals for his standard of learning in obstetrics. After he graduated he took a teaching job in Bristol Royal Infirmary. He was not only a lecturer in obstetrics, but also held the title of physician accoucheur -a male midwife.
A 19th Century Pandemic
His cholera research was also of great value during the 19th century and he helped advance the scientific field. Cholera was a terrifying disease which struck poor and rich alike and could kill healthy adults within hours. In Swayne’s time people didn’t know the cause; which we now know is the bacteria vibrio cholerae.
Unfortunate victims of cholera were convulsed with pain and suffered violent vomiting and uncontrollable watery diarrhoea resulting in severe dehydration. The victim eventually turned blue and died.
Death stalked the streets
From 1817 onward pandemics of cholera spread through England, hitting Bristol for the first time in 1831. Many thousands died and cities and towns like Bristol were simply not adequate facilities. Before the advent of large out of town cemeteries like Arnos Vale they struggled to bury the dead. The authorities also struggled to contain the spread, so they set up committees to help. During an outbreak in 1849 the City of Bristol a group of learned men were commissioned to reduce the death toll through scientific means. Swayne, along with a range of other medical professionals (some of whom will appear in a later blog, looking at you Dr William Budd), set about assessing why the disease spread so fast.
A board of experts
This board of medics and administrators went to areas where the outbreaks occurred, at great personal risk to themselves to find answers. One of their number, Mr J Williams caught Cholera whilst compiling the reports and sadly died. Swayne and his colleagues even examined the diarrhea of the afflicted and declared there were ‘crescentic bodies’ in their evacuations. It was wasn’t until the 1890’s that the cornerstone of modern medicine: Germ Theory began to fully make sense of this observation.
Even today Cholera affects an estimated 3–5 million people worldwide and causes roughly 28,800–130,000 deaths a year.
Saving women’s lives
Swayne’s main area of a research was pregnancy, birth and post-partum support. His obstetrics book was translated into 8 | [

Nicholas N. Rossis, a fellow author and colleague, invited me to participate in an international authors project, The Writer’s Process Blog Tour. He is the author of Amazon’s #1 Pearseus fantasy book series. This month, Nicholas published The Power of Six, a collection of short science fiction stories, and is working on Mad Water, book four of the Pearseus series.
He recently answered four questions about his work and process on his website, and nominated other writers to share in the same way. I was one of them so here goes. If you find the information of interest please pass it along to your social media followers. Thanks for stopping by my website!
1) What am I working on?
I’m editing Unelmoija: The Spiritshifter, the third book in the Weeia Miami urban fantasy series. I’ve also begun writing Unelmoija: The Timeshifter, the fourth book in the series.
2) How does my work differ from others of its genre?
I’ll focus on how it’s similar first: it’s a first person account by Amy, the lead character; the story takes place in Miami, an urban environment; there is mystery, action and light romance.
It varies from other urban fantasies I’m familiar with in that the story is about the Weeia, superhumans with extra abilities, as opposed to vampires, were animals, fairies or witches.
3) Why do I write what I do?
In a way Amy, the main character in the Weeia series, inspires me to share her story. I write urban fantasy because I enjoy reading urban fantasies, and watching programs and films based on urban fantasy books.
4) How does my writing process work?
Outline, write, edit, write, tweak outline, write, edit, repeat then edit, edit, edit.
Meet my author colleagues
With the psychological and cinematic vision obtained while attending the University of Southern California, Jose Arana found his artistic self. He cannot wait to share his work, including this epic fantasy tale brought to life through a magical comic book series.
Chronicles of a Necromancer is very dear to him, and he hopes you enjoy reading every page as much as he had writing it!

Is brick good for raised garden beds? Brick-raised beds will not rot like wood will over time. It is a durable and more permanent option for raised bed gardening.
Can you build a raised bed with bricks?
You can use bricks to create a plant bed that holds an area of nutrient-rich soil with good drainage in areas that are unsuitable for gardening.
Do I need to line a brick raised bed?
Brick or stone constructions should be lined with polythene to separate any lime in the mortar from plant roots.
Why raised beds are bad?
Raised Beds – the Con Side
They cost money to build. Soil dries out much faster in summer. Requires more watering. Less sustainable since you need to buy and transport walls and soil.
Is brick safe for vegetable gardens?
There is nothing in brick that would harm plants or contaminate soil. Nothing in cinder blocks (CMU's) either, although concrete products can leach lime. Lime is a common soil amendment and affects soil pH but other than that, has no deleterious affect on the plants.
Related advise for Is Brick Good For Raised Garden Beds?
Can you lay bricks without mortar?
ONE of the simplest and most attractive ways to install a paved walk or patio is to use bricks laid on a bed of sand without mortar or cement. Instead, the bricks should be laid on a bed of sand, as shown here, to provide a stable surface that will not allow the bricks to shift and to help insure proper drainage.
How do you line a garden with bricks?
How do you build a raised bed with brick retaining walls?
How much does it cost to put up a brick wall?
Cost to Build a Brick or Stone Wall
Building a brick or stone wall costs $4,918 on average with a typical range between $2,135 and $7,705. Brick walls cost $10 to $45 per square foot depending on thickness and type. Stone walls run $25 to $80 per square foot depending on thickness and style.
What do you put at the bottom of a raised garden bed?
The bottom of a raised garden bed should be a layer of grass clippings, leaves, wood chips, straw, and other organic material. The cardboard should be placed on top of that layer. The organic material will turn into compost, while the cardboard will prevent weeds.
Should I put rocks in the bottom of my raised garden bed?
You should avoid putting rocks or gravel at the bottom of your raised garden beds, or any of your planters or containers for that matter. With your buried rock layer trapping water beneath your soil, problems with fungal growths and root rot are more likely to occur.
Should I line my raised garden bed with plastic?
Avoid lining your garden beds with plastic, as this prevents drainage and could drown your plants' roots. If you have a weed and pest problem, consider installing a combination of metal mesh and fabric or hardware cloth and cardboard to get both benefits at once.
How deep should raised beds be?
A raised bed does not have to be very deep to be effective. Eight to 12 inches is usually adequate. If drainage is a problem, or if the plants you are growing prefer drier soil, the bed could be taller and filled with a porous growing medium. Vegetable beds should be 12 to 18 inches deep.
How do I keep my raised bed from rotting?
What is the point of a raised garden bed?
The Benefits of Raised Bed Gardening
Raised garden beds (also called garden boxes) are great for growing small plots of veggies and flowers. They keep pathway weeds from your garden soil, prevent soil compaction, provide good drainage, and serve as a barrier to pests such as slugs and snails.
Is mortar bad for soil?
The mortar is able to break up into smaller pieces in just a few years. The cement is made with lime, and this will reduce the acidity of your soil. The effect is slow and of low intensity. Nonetheless, some plants could show some negative response.
Is red brick toxic?
Bricks do not contain highly toxic compounds. Tests to evaluate the encapsulation of potentially damaging chemicals in waste materials have shown that no toxic compounds are leached from bricks. A brick is a 100 percent inorganic, inert material.
Is mortar bad for plants?
Cement has an adverse effect on the nutritional efficiency of soil because it badly affects the pH level of the soil. Thus, that kind of mixture can only be used for construction purposes and not for plants or crop production.
Can you lay bricks straight on dirt?
It really depends on the type of soil in your area, but laying pavers on dirt is simple as long as you ensure they won't move or sink over time. If the soil is very dry, wet it down to make compacting easier and use a spirit | [

INTRODUCTION: The dictionary definition of acid rain is “’rainfall made so acidic by atmospheric pollution that it causes environmental harm, chiefly to forests and lakes. The main cause is the industrial burning of coal and other fossil fuels, the waste gases from which contain sulphur and nitrogen oxides which combine with atmospheric water to form acids.” In Northern Europe and North America millions of trees have died because of the causes of acid rain. Some lakes contain so much acid that all the fish have died and the birds that relied on this fish for food have left. Acid rain also speeds up the rusting of iron and building made of marble, limestone and concrete have been severely affected. It is because of these reasons that acid rain is a big issue in today’s society.
CAUSES: Normal rain is usually slightly because of carbon dioxide in the air dissolves in rain to form carbonic acid, as in the equation: Carbon Dioxide + Water = Carbonic Acid. However large amounts of waste gases from industry and motor vehicles are making rain much more acidic than normal. Sulphur dioxide (SO2) dissolves in rainwater, like carbon dioxide, to form sulphurous acid. It also reacts with oxygen in the air to form sulphurous trioxide (SO3), which dissolves in rainwater as well to form sulphuric acid. Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2) does all of these things as well. Power stations produce these gases as waste and as these gases mix with the air and the rain water it forms acid rain that when it falls to earth it harms our environment. The sulphur dioxide from factories and the nitrogen dioxide from car exhausts are to blame for the acid rain. Acid rain can be written in the equation: Water + Oxygen + sulphur dioxide = Sulphuric acid or (H2O + O2 + SO2 = H2SO4) and likewise with nitrogen dioxide being (H2O + O2 + NO2 = HNO3)
EFFECTS: As explained in the introductory paragraph, the acid rain is killing our trees and our fish in rivers and lakes. It can also make forest soils very sensitive and therefore makes certain plants quite hard to grow. It also accelerates the decaying of buildings, statues and sculptures made out of limestone, concrete or marble. Acid rain can also have an effect on human health. Acid rain looks feels and tastes much the same as normal rain however the sulphur dioxide and the nitrogen oxides in the rain and in the air can be transported easily in our atmosphere via wind and can easily be inhaled into our lungs which can increase the amount of asthma and bronchitis going around. Another effect of acid rain is that because rivers are more acidic and rivers travel out to sea therefore the ocean has also been recorded as slightly more acidic than in previous years. Because of this the more fragile ocean-life such as the coral reefs has been seen as degrading much faster than normal.
SOLUTIONS: Based on what acid rain is doing to our environment there are many solutions that have been created. One of these is that many factories have started to not... | [

The Toyota 86 crept onto the market back in 2012 and was something fresh and bold for Toyota. One major selling point, besides its fantastic looks (inspired by the Toyota 2000GT), was the fact that the car was rear wheel drive. For the previous 20-or so years, the Celica was front wheel drive and well, that didn’t really do much for the driving enthusiast. The 86 came in at a nice weight, with great dimensions, a revvy motor and well, a heap of style. It was regarded as many, as the ‘perfect platform’.
It wasn’t long before international and national companies were finding ways to make the car go faster, make more power and handle better. The 86 was never about raw power, it was about balance.
Many of the cars found their way to track days, and this prime example is one such ride. The young owner, Lachlan Webster, was spending a heap of time doing circuit work, so it was inevitable that his car would end up being modified.
Looking to enhance the performance of his 86, Lachlan took small steps in upgrading the car to track the improvements. It wasn’t long before it was time to look at making some more power and all avenues of forced induction were researched. It was after a visit to Luke Pardini and the team at Youngs Performance that Lachlan discovered that the supercharger system that Harrop offered was just what the doctor ordered.
Designed and manufactured by Harrop to OE standards, the TVS1320 Supercharger system is exclusively designed for the FA20 engine which is in the FT86 derivatives – GT86/BRZ/FRS. It features superior engine bay integration and performance efficiency and to boot, the kit is supplied with an emissions compliant calibration.
Luke was on-hand at the shoot of the car to run through some of the specifics of the combination. “The supercharger is the Harrop TVS1320 which is based off Eaton’s 6th generation TVS technology. The standard kit comes with a 6PK designed pulley which is 95mm but there are other sizes available with the smallest size being 65mm. In the standard setup, the kits runs 8.7psi which tapers from 4.5psi @ 2000rpm to the 8.7psi @ 7400rpm. Using an inverted supercharger in the centre of the one piece manifold allows for more plenum volume both before and after the intercoolers,” Luke explained.
Fuel and air delivery are taken care of by the OEM setup mostly. The standard fuel rails and fuel injectors (both the port and direct) are retained in this kit with only the port injection needing to be swapped over from the original intake manifold to the supercharger. The air intake system is 50/50 OEM and Harrop. The front (or dirty side) of the air box is the original items as is the MAF card which is swapped into a newly designed rear (or clean air side) The original air filter is swapped out for a hi-flow BMC washable air filter.
“Overall this FDFI1320 kit has proven to be a fantastic addition to the FA20 engine. Not only in the power and torque gains (of more than 50% with a huge power increase of 65Kw and 93Nm of torque over standard) but also from the point that this kit has passed IM240 drive cycle emissions test. The supercharger really has transformed the driving experience of the 86 to create a performance package comparable to many higher price point sports cars. It is an achievement that Harrop and we at Youngs Performance are extremely proud. It represents their commitment to technical excellence in automotive performance in both design & manufacturing,” said Luke.
Young Lachlan hasn’t had the chance to get behind the wheel as yet but I am sure that the new gains will put a big, big smile on his dial.

Danger Within: Email And Security Awareness Training Strategies For Effective Account Takeover Protection
Malicious actors use phishing, social engineering and brand impersonation techniques to steal login credentials and compromise email accounts, creating serious risks of data breach and financial fraud.
Meanwhile, the rapid growth of cloud services, notably collaboration suites Microsoft 365 and G Suite, is fundamentally changing the organizational attack surface, creating challenges for traditional defensive strategies.
This whitepaper explores the account takeover threat in detail and suggests a comprehensive email security strategy to address both the human and technical risk areas. | [

The monitoring of slopes is generally carried out using an Inclinometer System which consists of an embedded consumable casing with keyways to guide a probe in a fixed axis. Boreholes are drilled parallel to the suspected falling plane and the casing grouted in place. Either a traversing probe or in-place probes are used to monitor deviation from original position. HMA Geotechnical use the RST Blue tooth probe system because of its light weight and technically advanced design. In place sensors are used if data logging of outputs is required.

PECKVILLE -- Police in Lackawanna County are looking for the bandit who made off with a donation jar meant for a local animal shelter.
Blakely police said the jar was stolen from the Discount Tobacco Shop last week.
At Griffin Pond Animal Shelter near Clarks Summit, dozens of dogs and cats are finding a temporary home. While they wait to be adopted into a loving home, the cost to care for and feed them isn't cheap.
“Just the basics, you're looking at vaccines, wormer, everyone knows how much flea treatment costs, and we also do microchip implants before the animals leave the shelter, along with spaying and neutering,” said Kate Andrews, adoption coordinator for Griffin Pond.
That's why it's so upsetting to hear that a donation jar holding roughly $1,000 meant for Griffin Pond was stolen from Discount Tobacco Shop in Peckville last Thursday.
Owner John Ciabocchi says whoever took the jar not only stole from the animals but his customers as well.
“We're all animal lovers here and a lot of our customers are,” said Ciabocchi. “Without the customers making the donations and helping it would be a pretty tough task to accomplish.”
Volunteers at Griffin Pond say they operate strictly on donations and every dollar counts. They say the shelter is so important because it's the only one serving both Lackawanna and Wyoming Counties.
“This is the only place a police officer can bring an animal in the middle of the night or a citizen that finds an animal,” said Andrews.
Ciabocchi has placed a new donation jar at the register inside his store. He's just hoping whoever took the jar will do the right thing.
“It'd be nice to have him come forward, I don`t know what the chances are of that,” said Ciabocchi.
Ciabocchi said he is even offering a $500 reward for the return of the money. | [

Success in B-17 revolves around taking care of and learning from your crew. Take time to notice how the computer-controlled gunners aim for the fast moving fighters and try to learn from their techniques. When you are being attacked, use Z and X to change to an enemy fighter, then SHIFT+F1 to see the battle from the fighter pilot's view. Make regular checks on the outside view to check your engines; if your co-pilot has been hit you don't get any warning. Fuel leaks can be critical to the success of a mission. If necessary you need to turn off an engine or two and drop out of formation to conserve fuel. If your engines are on fire point the nose at the ground and try diving at between 350-400 mph - this is useful in later levels when one fire extinguisher per engine isn't enough.
Make regular checks to ensure the crew is OK and that the guns aren't jammed - it's easy to miss messages in the heat of combat. Keep at least one pilot healthy because the plane can end up in a spin if it's in a turn when the pilot is hit, giving little time to bail out.
Make the radio operator send a MayDay message to improve your chances of survival when you're bailing out over the channel. Landing an engineless, bullet-ridden, flame-scorched B-17 after a mission is risky and difficult. Bail out over the channel to ensure mission success. Before landing, attempt to heal injured crew otherwise they are hospitalised. Having more than one crew member perform first aid on a casualty increases the chances of success.

FRIDAY: A Hero's Guide to Saving Your Kingdom
[I won this book from one of my favorite book blogs - From the Mixed Up Files of Middle Grade Authors]
Surely you know the stories of Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, Snow White and Rapunzel. What you may not know are the stories of Frederick, Liam, Duncan and Gustav. Those guys are the princes in those stories. All most people know about them is that they are princes - they aren't even called by their own names, just "Prince Charming."
This story starts after the fairy tales - Ella leaves to find adventure, Sleeping Beauty is a shrew and Liam can't stand her, Snow White asks for a "little space," and Gustav is bitter about being saved by a girl so Rapunzel leaves to use her healing powers on those who would appreciate her. The princes stumble into one another and stumble onto an evil plot. Through a succession of errors and disasters, they might just save the day after all.
4.5 out of 5 stars
This was great fun! I love fractured fairy tales, and this story was right up my alley. Each character is unique - the princes, the princesses - and they evolve as individuals and in some cases as couples in fascinating ways. My favorite moment in the story is when the guys realize how to work together instead of working against one another. This is another one that I can't decide if I should put it in the library or keep this copy for myself and get another for school. I hope there are going to be more stories for these characters! | [

Some of us are resigned to certain beauty calamities because we have learned to live with them. It’s a good thing some beauty brands are relentless in finding ways to make us as close to perfect. The prices are also surprisingly reasonable.

Local buses are shocking, don’t run where passengers want to go or late enough.
Why not run a circular weekend service that avoids the town centre to connect; Colchester Zoo, Tollgate Retail Park, Leisure World, Northern Gateway (when completed) with outer edges of the town. Customers prefer leisure on a weekend not just town centre shopping.
Why not run a weekday only service that connects the underutilised P&R site with Severalls Industrial Estate to attempt to alleviate rush hour traffic.
Build an actual usable bus station where buses can layover between trips. Not just glorified stops at the side of the road.
Convince operators to sign up to a Quality Bus Partnership scheme to provide even headway on common sections of route. The 8, 61, 65, 68 all take the same routing in th north of town but run at different frequencies.
Olympic Boulevard has a bus gate but no service has ever used it!
A consultation for locals to make suggestions and get all view would be ideal.

I'm a leader (Tawny Owl) at one of the local Brownie packs. As we have started new packs and have some girls going up to Guides soon, we now have a few spaces for new Brownies to come and join us. The spaces get filled quickly and there is often a waiting list so I just thought that SG'ers might like to know about it first.
Brownies is for girls aged 7 - 10 and is open to girls of all races, religions and abilities. For more information on what Brownies is all about these days (it's very much more exciting than it was when I was a Brownie!) have a look at the Girl Guiding website. If you know someone who'd like to join, whisper me or email our Snowy Owl at email@example.com. | [

If we’re talking about the housing market in the South and the United States generally, then it’s fair to say things have been kind of red-hot for the last few years. It’s very much a seller’s market in the country, meaning there is more demand for housing than there are homes to satisfy those demands.
That’s great for sellers, of course, but there could be no sellers if there were no buyers, and they’re the ones who have been having it rough. The COVID-19 pandemic complicated things, too, since lots of work shortages have made construction materials sort of hard to come by.
If we laser-focus in on the housing market in the South, we can see that many Americans have moved to Southern states over the last year and a half, particularly to places like Florida and North and South Carolina.
The bottom line is this: the most aggressive housing markets in the South feature homes worth median prices of between $627,000 and $1.5 million. read more : onlinewebworld24
But let’s drill down on some of the most popular or otherwise interesting Southern markets and give you some details about them.
New Orleans, LA
Let’s start with the always unique city of New Orleans, a city of about 391,000 in 2019. The median price of New Orleans houses for sale is $340,000.
As compared to other Southern markets, New Orleans is not a hugely competitive or hot market as of right now. A lot of that is due to the pandemic, which savaged many people’s ability to afford homes at all. The city is currently sporting a buyer’s market, meaning there are a lot of houses but not a ton of buyers.
However, New Orleans is indeed predicted to experience a long-term increase in home prices in the next five years, which is fine for the market, but it squeezes buyers even further as the city’s residents struggle to recover from pandemic-caused job losses.
If New Orleans is the city for you, though, watch the area in the coming years. Bigger things are coming.
Lots of people know Arlington, Virginia, for its Arlington National Cemetery, but the city features a lot more than that, including a decent selection of hot houses.
visit here to know more information : topworldzone
Overall, Arlington homes in 2021 are quite competitively priced, with the median cost being $705,400. On top of that, a decent amount of Arlington homes, just over 69%, are worth more than $500,000. The city’s population of about 233,000 is expected to grow by over 4% in the coming years, while those fairly high home prices might be experiencing a slight fall soon.
Arlington has an impressive story, though, having suffered a bit during the early stages of the COVID pandemic and then recovering from that quite quickly. Make no mistake: there’s strength in this market.
Highland Park, Texas
Finishing off this list is among the hottest, most competitive, most expensive and in-demand markets in all of the South: Highland Park, Texas.
The median home price there is a jaw-dropping $1,508,900, and over 90% of homes in the area are worth more than $500,000. We admit that’s a little nutty, but remember this: Highland Park is a ritzy area where the incomes average at just over $211,000. The population is just under 10,000, so there is some exclusivity there.
And although the median price of Highland Park homes has trended down since this time in 2020, you can be sure the market is remaining strong in comparison to just about any other place in the South.

Proper insertion and alignment of the IOL is an essential part of laser cataract surgery. Newer equipment had made it more precise than ever.
Dr. William Goldstein discusses eye conditions caused by aging, as well as symptoms and treatment options.
The most modern technique for cataract surgery is laser cataract surgery with phakoemulsification. This technique is the easiest on the eye, and most precise.
New IOL's (intraocular lenses) can act like bifocals or trifocals when used during laser cataract surgery. This leads to less need for glasses after surgery.
Laser cataract surgery requires lens implantation, and the newer lens implants can provide near and reading vision. One type of implant that can accomplish this is the Crystalens Accomodating IOL.
New technology for lens implant (IOL) calculations is available to ensure that patients will be more independent of glasses after laser cataract surgery
New IOL's (intraocular lenses) for cataract surgery can protect the eye from UV and blue light that can cause progression of macular degeneration
Multifocal iol's provide an extended range of focus without glasses after laser cataract surgery. The Tecnis Symfony is the latest of these lens implants
Itching, red eyes are very common this time of year....it's Itchy Eye Season! Allergy Eye also known as allergic conjunctivitis is very common this time of year.
The crystalens, when used with laser cataract surgery, provides near freedom from glasses. | [

The Micro-structure of Use of Help
Document Type Article
To see whether, from the user’s standpoint, muddling through with trial-and-error exploration of the interface actually works as well as consulting help, we analyzed video recordings of 14 subjects using Microsoft Publisher. We segmented their attempts at accomplishing four tasks into episodes, lasting from a few seconds to a few minutes, using four problem-solving approaches: help, recall, and trial-and-error. The subjects’ overall rates of success with trial-and-error were higher than with help. We present trends of use of the approaches across the four tasks, review the apparent causes of success and failure when using the approaches, and develop an affordance-knowledge model that helps to explain people’s preference for muddling through over using help. We conclude by discussing the model’s implications for developers of systems and writers of help. | [

Versatile Platform for Software Development Shortens Time-to-Market for Design Teams Using ARC EM Processor Cores
MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., May 29, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --
- Starter kit enables "out-of-the box" software development, debugging and system analysis for ARC EM Family of embedded cores
- Includes four pre-installed FPGA images for the ARC EM4 and EM6 processors, enabling choice of configuration and rapid bring-up time
- Supports broad range of hardware extensions via Digilent Pmod Compatible connectors including sensors, actuators, displays and communications devices
- Power-efficient DesignWare ARC EM4 and ARC EM6 32-bit processor cores are optimized for cost-sensitive embedded applications
Synopsys, Inc. (Nasdaq: SNPS), a global leader providing software, IP and services used to accelerate innovation in chips and electronic systems, today announced availability of the DesignWare® ARC® EM Starter Kit for the ARC EM family of embedded processor cores. The DesignWare ARC EM4 and ARC EM6 processor cores are optimized for use in embedded and deeply embedded applications such as sensors, storage devices, appliances, consumer electronics, and battery-operated devices where high performance, small size and minimal power consumption are essential. The EM Starter Kit provides a platform for rapid software development and code porting, as well as software debugging and system analysis for the ARC EM processors. It is also used for application and product prototyping and demos. The kit is ready for use "out-of-the-box" and enables designers to immediately begin writing code for their design.
The ARC EM Starter Kit includes a base board and daughter card. The daughter card features a Xilinx Spartan®-6 LX45 FPGA, an on-board 125 MHz clock generator, 128 MB of DDR3 memory and 16 MB of flash memory. The flash memory supports the storage of application software and contains four pre-installed ARC EM processor core bit files that can be selected with a dual in-line package (DIP) switch. The base board allows multiple connectivity and configurable I/O options, making it easy to add circuitry and build subsystems around the EM processors. This quick and easy system configuration capability enables software development prior to final SoC hardware availability. Example code, peripheral drivers and an MQX RTOS binary are available for the kit. A Secure Digital (SD) card slot on the base board offers additional application software and data storage. The kit also includes a Digilent Pmod™ Compatible board featuring an I2C 4-channel 12-bit A/D converter, an AC power adapter and a mini-USB cable.
"The combination of high performance, low power and small footprint of the DesignWare ARC EM4 processor made it ideally suited for our connectivity products," said Michael Mo, senior director of product marketing at Amlogic. "Synopsys' ARC EM Starter Kit offers a low-cost hardware platform that enables designers to quickly explore attributes of the EM cores and get an early start on the development of features that will differentiate their ARC-based designs."
The DesignWare ARC EM4 and EM6 processor cores are based on the ARCv2 instruction set architecture (ISA) and are characterized by their very small size and low power consumption, delivering up to twice the performance per milliwatt and per square millimeter as other processor cores in their class. Because of their performance efficiency, EM processors are often implemented alongside a high-performance CPU to offload tasks from the host processor and improve the overall efficiency of the chip. The cores are highly configurable so they can be optimized for each instance on a SoC, sharing a common programming model to simplify software development and task partitioning. The ARC EM4 core's small size (<10K gates) makes it ideal for applications such as sensors and actuators, deeply embedded processing and battery-operated products where power consumption and size must be kept to a minimum without compromising performance. The ARC EM6 processor core adds support for up to 32K of instruction and data cache. Both cores feature native ARM® AMBA® AHB™ and AHB-Lite™ interfaces, as well as BVCI interfaces to enable high system throughput. The ARC EM4 and EM6 processors deliver industry-leading performance efficiency of up to 1.71 DMIPS/MHz and can achieve speeds of over 800 MHz in a 28-nm process. The EM Family of processor cores is supported by a complete suite of development tools, including the ARC MetaWare Development Toolkit that generates highly efficient code ideal for deeply embedded applications, ARC simulators including nSIM and xCAM, and the ARChitect core configuration tool.

What To Do With Potato Leftovers… 25 November 2011
I made Twice Baked Mashed Potatoes again for Thanksgiving, and I got to keep the leftovers. Yum! But what to do with them?
Use them instead of an English Muffin with poached eggs!
Grits-and-Eggs Casserole 10 April 2011
I found this yesterday while reading Rachel Ray’s magazine at the hair salon. It looked so good – and simple! – that I copied the recipe onto my BlackBerry. (40 minutes is a long time to sit while hair color processes its magic, gotta find something to do!)
This morning I tried it, and it’s quite delicious!
* Don’t forget the salt when you boil the water for the grits. 😉
* Raw veggies added après baking is just as good! (Even better IMHO.)
* A dollop of cottage cheese on top of each serving adds a little something extra, and adds calcium!
Salt and Pepper
1 1/2 Cups quick-cooking grits
6 ounces sharp cheddar cheese, shredded (about 2 cups)
4 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 red bell peppers, thinly sliced
2 onions, thinly sliced
Hot Sauce, for serving
1. Preheat the oven to 350. Grease a 9×13 inch baking dish. In a medium saucepan, bring 3 1/2 cups water and 1/2 teaspoon salt to a boil. Stir in the grits, lower the heat and cook, stirring, until very thick, about 5 minutes. Stir in the cheese and butter until melted. Transfer to the prepared baking dish and smooth with a spatula.
2. Using the back of a spoon, make 8 evenly spaced wells in the grits. Crack 1 egg at a time into a small bowl and pour into each well. Bake the casserole until the egg whites are set but the yolks are still jiggly, about 20 minutes.
3. Meanwhile, in a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the bell peppers and onions and cook, stirring frequently, until the onions are browned, about 10 minutes; season with salt and pepper. Lower the heat to low and cook until the peppers are softened, about 5 minutes.
4. Serve the grits casserole with the peppers and onions; sprinkle with hot sauce.

Western Mac 28 November 2010
Not sure when this turned into a cooking blog 😉, but remember this?
1 package of Velveeta Shells and Cheese
1 lb. ground beef
1/4 cup chopped green peppers
1/4 cup chopped onion
1 6-oz. can tomato paste
1 16-oz. can whole kernel corn, drained
1/2 cup water
Dash of pepper
Prepare mac and cheese following directions on package.
Brown the meat, green pepper and onion; cook until tender.
Stir in tomato paste, water and pepper; mix well. Stir in corn.
Add macaroni dinner.
Pour into 2-quart casserole; bake at 350F for 15-20 minutes.
Of course, I do a few things differently. I prefer raw vegetables, so I don’t sauté them with the meat. I also love peppers and onions, so I put in a whole pepper and half of a red onion.
Side note: Did you know there are male and female peppers, and they taste better for different things? Male peppers have three feet on the bottom and are good for slicing to eat raw or cook in stuff. Female peppers have four feet and are good for stuffing. (Thanks, Pampered Chef demonstration lady!)
I also don’t usually bake it in the oven; if it needs to be warmed up, I just nuke it in a bowl for 30 seconds.
And thank you to whoever told me about buttering crescent rolls before rolling and baking them!
finally… 27 November 2010
Twice-Baked Mashed Potatoes 25 November 2010
My mom’s friend used to make these when we were little, and now they’ve turned into what I bring to Thanksgiving dinner every year. (Otherwise I get turkey and corn. That’s it. So I thought I should make something I actually like!) They are quite delicious and easy enough to make.
Start by boiling four pounds of potatoes for 20 minutes. (I leave the skin on because I’m too lazy to peel the potatoes, and it practically falls off after they’re boiled, anyway. And aren’t all the vitamins in the skin? ;-))
Pull the skin off and cut the potatoes into smaller pieces…
… making it easier to mash!

New York—Yes there is dramatic growth in Internet retail but it still accounts for well less than 10% of total sales. In fact, during the 2015 Holiday Season, 91% of consumers chose brick and mortar retailers to shop at.
According to its Holiday Consumer Purchasing Trends study released today by the The International Council of Shopping Centers (ICSC), the strength in brick and mortar is largely due to the technological advancements on the part of retailers and the savviness of consumers.
“Looking back at the holiday season, the major trend that emerged is the prevalence of the omnichannel consumer and the resulting convergence among brick and mortar and digital retail,” said Tom McGee, president/ceo of ICSC. “The story of bricks vs. clicks is an old one. The story is now one of a shopper getting the best of both worlds, using online research and capabilities to inform physical purchases. The American consumer has sent a clear message that the physical store remains at the epicenter of the shopping experience.”
Holiday Shoppers Cite Touching Merchandise and Convenience as Key Benefits
- Consumers continued to show resiliency this season, as 40% of shoppers say they spent more this season than in 2014, with 33% spending the same this season. Only 23% said they spent less than last year.
- 198 million American adults made holiday purchases at a physical store this holiday season (Nov. 1 – Dec. 25).
- Seeing, touching, and trying on merchandise was cited the number one reason to shop in store (32%), followed by the ability to browse (26%), and the ability to get the item right away (24%).
- Shoppers also embrace the ease of returning and exchanging products in store, with 20% of shoppers electing to shop in-store because of this advantage.
A Savvier Consumer Uses Mobile and Click and Collect
- 60% of holiday shoppers used their mobile device while shopping in-store to do such things as compare prices, check availability and view reviews/ratings.
- 56% of holiday shoppers researched products before they even entered the store, noting they arrived better informed and ready to purchase.
- Nearly one-third (32%) of holiday shoppers used the click and collect method –with 69% of these shoppers purchasing additional items in the store of collection and 36% making an another purchase in an adjacent store.
Gift Cards, Apparel, and Electronics Leading Gift Categories
- On average, 62% of holiday shoppers spent on gift cards, with an average spend of $145. 50% of all consumers received a gift card this season. Of those that received a gift card, February or later (43%) is the most likely time for them to redeem it, followed by January (39%) and the last week of December (18%).
- 48% of holiday shoppers made a purchase in the apparel/footwear and electronics/devices categories this holiday season.
About the ICSC Holiday Consumer Purchasing Trends Study
The 2015 ICSC Holiday Consumer Purchasing Trends Study was conducted online by Opinion Research Corporation on behalf of ICSC from December 28-30, 2015. The survey represents a demographically representative U.S. sample of 1,014 adults 18 years of age and older. | [

The U.S. Astronaut Hall of Fame is closing Nov. 2 to re-launch as part of "Heroes and Legends, " the Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex's new attraction.
(Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex)
— Twenty-five years after its doors first opened to the public, the United States Astronaut Hall of Fame is closing in preparation for its re-launch as part of a new interactive attraction late next year.
The institution, which since Oct. 29, 1990 has honored the nation's space explorers with the world's largest display of astronaut personal memorabilia, will close to the public on Nov. 2, officials announced on Wednesday (Oct. 21).
Located in Titusville, Florida, just south of the launch pads where its honorees departed for space, the Astronaut Hall of Fame is set to move up the road to the Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex, which has managed the hall as an off-site facility since 2002.
"Bringing the Hall of Fame and its educational programs to the visitor complex will allow a larger audience to explore the amazing achievements of the astronaut heroes, " said Therrin Protze, chief operating officer of the complex.
The highlight of Heroes and Legends will be a 4D omnidirectional theater, designed to make guests feel as though they are floating in the vastness of space.
The visitor complex is integrating the Hall of Fame into its newest attraction, which will celebrate the early astronauts and their missions by immersing guests in their history.
"Heroes and Legends, featuring the U.S. Astronaut Hall of Fame" will bring to life the stories of America's pioneering astronauts by inviting guests to experience their missions through high-tech displays and special effects – including simulated holograms.
"[The visitor complex's] mission... is to inspire minds of all ages through memorable space experiences, " said Protze. "The new Heroes and Legends, featuring the Hall of Fame, will immerse our guests in some of the most inspirational and remarkable space experiences in the world."
The highlight of Heroes and Legends is promoted to be a 3-D omnidirectional theater, designed to make guests feel as though they're floating in space. In the theater, images will envelop visitors as Hall of Fame astronauts, including Alan Shepard, John Glenn, Jim Lovell and Neil Armstrong, invite them to join in their historic space journeys. | [

Hopkinton is a somewhat small town located in the state of Rhode Island. With a population of 8,415 people and two constituent neighborhoods, Hopkinton is the 31st largest community in Rhode Island.
Also of interest is that Hopkinton has more people living here who work in computers and math than 95% of the places in the US.
Hopkinton is a good choice for families with children because of several factors. Many other families with children live here, making it a place where both parents and children are more likely to develop social ties with other families. The town’s good public school district and large population of college-educated adults provide an environment conducive to academic success. Many people own their own single-family homes, providing areas for children to play and stability in the community.

After the international community announced the cut of their assistance to the electoral commissions, the officials at the Independent Election Commission (IEC) set a one-month deadline for their staff in central and provincial offices to do their clearance with the commission. As a result of this decision, the IEC staff protested calling the commissioners responsible for the situation and asking them to step down
FEFA and the people of Afghanistan are seriously worried about the situation. The Free and Fair Election Forum of Afghanistan (FEFA) believes that as part a major of electoral reform process, there is need for reforms in electoral commissions. Additionally, FEFA also expressed serious concern over a number of professional and technical staff losing the electoral commissions. Over the last ten years, large amounts of money have been spent building technical and professional capacity of these staff. Thus, immediate dismissal of these technical staff is a big gap, which is difficult to be filled shortly.
Considering the situation and the concerns of Afghans, civil society and the members of parliament, FEFA present the following recommendations to the National Unity Government and the International Community:
• FEFA urges that the National Unity Government to fulfill the commitments it made on electoral reform process. The Electoral Reform Commission should start its work as soon as possible. Unfortunately, the current ambiguous status of electoral reform has increased concern of public as well as the international community on future of democracy and election in Afghanistan.
• Likewise, FEFA urges the government to immediately discuss the issue with the international community to convince it to continue supporting to the electoral commissions.
• Besides starting electoral reform process, the government must specify its decision on holding of upcoming parliamentary election as soon as possible. The immediate starting of Electoral Reform Commission work and specifying the date of parliamentary election are two major issues expected by people of Afghanistan and international community.
• While FEFA appreciates both financial and technical assistance of international community to the electoral commissions, it is urging for continuation of their assistance to the fledgling democracy of Afghanistan. Strengthening of democracy and democratic institutions in Afghanistan is a joint mission of the government of Afghanistan, and the international community. The cut of financial and technical assistance to electoral commissions that are the fundamental bodies for survival of election and democracy is a big rollback damaging the democratic and electoral achievements of people of Afghanistan.

The cement production line is composed of a series of cement production equipment, which mainly consists of crushing and pre-equalization, raw material homogenizing, preheat and decomposition, cement clinker and packaging process, and so on.

Inside the first chamber, there are stage liners and ripple liners as well as steel balls. The shell rotates so as to generate electricity, and this force brings ball to a certain height and then balls drop down by gravity, the impact is the grinding force to the material. After the primary grinding, materials go into the second chamber through segregate screen. In the second chamber, there are flat liners and steel ball. After the secondary grinding, material is discharged from the discharging mouth. Then the whole grinding process is ended.

An undemanding and non-invasive evergreen that thrives in damp or boggy soils, sweet flag, or sweet rush,is the perfect plant for a shady spot at a pond edge. Its strong cream variegation will remain vivid as it grows to 18 inches tall and 18 inches wide, even in deep shade.DK - Garden Design © 2009 Dorling Kindersley Limited
The striking variegation of the evergreen giant reed makes it a popular choice, although it is less vigorous and less hardy than the green form. In cold areas, plant it in a pot so you can enjoy it outdoors in summer, then bring it under cover for the winter. Giant reed will grow to 7 feet tall and 6 feet wide in ideal growing conditions: full or partial sun and moist or wet soil.DK - Garden Design © 2009 Dorling Kindersley Limited
Greater Quaking Grass
Also known as big or large quaking grass, greater quaking grass is easy to grow from seed. Its nodding flowerheads rattle in the lightest breeze, and its stems dry well for future arrangements. Quaking grass can tolerate a variety of soils, as long as it has full sun, and will grow to 12 inches tall and 9 inches wide.DK - Garden Design © 2009 Dorling Kindersley Limited
Feather Reed Grass
Feather reed grass makes a strong vertical accent in prairie-style planting, to 3 feet tall. Unfussy and sun-loving, the plant tolerates most soils and can produce a second flush of new growth when cut back in late summer.DK - Garden Design © 2009 Dorling Kindersley Limited
Reliable and variously suited to any number of habitats, evergreen sedges can fill in bare spots and draw attention to - or from - different areas in your garden. The yellow stripes of 'Evergold,' shown here, brighten up shaded, boggy areas such as poolside beds. Plant it beside the slender, coppery-brown leaves of leatherleaf sedge for nice contrast. Another yellow-leaved sedge grass, Bowles' golden, produces brown flower spikes, as does orange-tinted-leaved New Zealand sedge.DK - Garden Design © 2009 Dorling Kindersley Limited
Dwarf pampas grass can add sofening interest to even the smallest yard. 'Pumila,' shown here, is hardier and more free-flowering than the taller species. At 6 feet tall and 6 feet wide, it mixes surprisingly well in a border. 'Aureolineata' is even smaller, and has broad leaves with golden edges that become more richly colored as the season progresses. Pampas grass prefers full sun and well-drained or moist soil. Combing through their leaves with a hand fork in winter will keep clumps looking tidy.DK - Garden Design © 2009 Dorling Kindersley Limited
'Tatra Gold' Crinkled Hair Grass
Wavy hair grass forms slowly-spreading tufts of fine evergreen leaves. Tiny 'Tatra Gold' - which grows to 6 inches tall and 6 inches wide - grows well in moist shade, where its acid-green leaves look almost luminous. In summer, it produces a shimmering haze of red-brown flowers. Plant it in large drifts among bright leaved sedges for a dramatic effect.DK - Garden Design © 2009 Dorling Kindersley Limited
The blue-ish evergreen leaves and wheat-looking flowers of this slow-spreading grass look stunning against a gravel mulch. Growing to 18 inches tall and 18 inches wide in full sun and well-drained or moist soil, it needs winter protection in cold areas.DK - Garden Design © 2009 Dorling Kindersley Limited
A tough plant for tough situations, evergreen umbrella bamboo copes well with dry soils and sunny sites, and makes an effective windbreak or screen. The closely spaced, arching canes, which grow to 12 feet tall and 12 feet wide, are slow-spreading and well situated at the back of a border or in a container.DK - Garden Design © 2009 Dorling Kindersley Limited
One of those useful plants that look good year-round, the silvery-blue, needle-like leaves of blue fescue form neat, round mounds that look beautiful in a terracotta or metal container. In summer, the plant produces spikes of small blue flowers. Blue fescue grows to 12 inches tall and 24 inches wide in ideal growing conditions: full or partial sun and well-drained or moist soil.DK - Garden Design © 2009 Dorling Kindersley Limited
Golden Japanese Forest Grass
This beautiful slow-growing, deciduous grass from Japan deserves to be the centerpiece in a container or a dry gravel border. Its low-arching, thinly striped yellow leaves develop a warm reddish tinge in fall. Cut back in early spring to encourage new growth. | [

6.5w EnduraLED 453316 Dim
Click Image for Gallery
Philips 7 watt A19 LED provides 470 lumens of energy efficient illumination (58 lm/w), which is generally equivalent to the amount of light produced by a 40 watt incandescent, or a 9 watt compact fluorescent light (CFL) bulb. The 25,000 hour life will eliminate repeated re-lamping (incandescents typically last 800 to 1,000 hours, while CFLs typically last 6,000 to 10,000 hours). This high efficacy LED light contains no mercury, emits virtually no UV/IR light, will not fade colors, and will provide an even, diffuse light source. It is dimmable down to 10 percent of full light level. This lamp is considered omnidirectional, in that the light will be projected in all directions. | [

Morning Consult reports:
If the Capitol Hill showdowns over the statuses of Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) and House Republican Conference Chair Liz Cheney served as a window into the larger issues facing the Republican Party, the Wyoming Republican who successfully fended off a leadership referendum may have won the battle, but polling shows the controversial freshman from Georgia is taking ground in the larger war.
The share of Republican voters with opinions about Greene increased 13 points, with nearly all of the movement falling on the positive side. Three in 10 Republican voters hold favorable views of the freshman lawmaker, up 11 points in a week, while 23 percent view her unfavorably, virtually unchanged from the previous survey. The latest poll, conducted Feb. 5-7 among 1,986 registered voters, has a margin of error of 2 percentage points.

One drop of snow can ruin a gutter system of the house or a snow avalanche may cause damage to people and property. It is better for the snow to thaw on the roof rather than evacuating the whole roof by sliding and falling as an avalanche. Snow fences and snow guards are an important element that should be added to any house, particularly if it is situated in a demographic area which gets regular snowfall to prevent thawing or avalanching and damaging people and property.But, there is a difference between these two. Snow fences stop the sliding snow from falling, whereas, snow guards provide traction, which actually protects the snow from sliding. Usually, they are recommended for metal roofs, and they not only stop the rooftop avalanches, but also maintain the roof and the roof lines from getting damaged. If the right fence is chosen, then it would last as long as the roof lasts. Two different products are available in the 2H hex heavy nut for sale down and clamp to seam snow fences. Bolt down snow fences are suitable for homes where a great deal of snow should be held to the roof and also for the roofs which are slippery in nature, while, clamp to seam are suitable for standing seam metal panel roofs.Some More Info on Bolt Down Snow FencesBolt down snow fences isn't one piece that can be installed. It consists of L-type snow brackets, aluminium tubing, couplers, caps, collars and ice stops. The L brackets differ in size and shape depending on the type of roofing- with a steeping pitch where the snowfall is heavy or for lighter applications where there isn't much snow fall and snow retention. The main feature of this kind of product is the inclusion of L brackets. These L brackets are mostly made up of aluminium and are rust-free. These are called "bolt down", as these brackets are bolted down on the roof using screws and there are proper provisions given in them to insert the tubing along them. At times, instead of screws other fasteners are used based on the material of the roof. | [

New Brunswick based bluegrass darlings have charmed the East Coast with the release of their debut album “So It Goes” and now the quirky duo is taking on the world with their upcoming album, “I Go Where You Go”.
From high energy foot stompers and traditional folk, husband and wife duo John and Lisa McLaggan have layered the tunes with memorable melodies, gorgeous harmonies, and Lisa’s unique washboard /bass drum /tin can setup.
They have performed extensively throughout Canada and Eastern United States.
A port city is a place where cultures and histories collide, where goods and ideas are imported and absorbed into the local bloodstream. The trio of celebrated Nova Scotian songwriters who now call themselves Port Cities honour that tradition. Their chosen name isn’t just indicative of where they’re from (the harbour hamlet of Cape Breton) but what they do: fuse divergent styles and experiences into a singular roots-rock sound.
Port Cities is a collaboration six years in the making. The trio first crossed paths in 2011 at a songwriter’s workshop hosted by Gordie Sampson, the Nova Scotia native who has become one of the most in-demand writers and producers in Nashville. | [

Dry conditions are presenting challenges for the reforestation work of dozens of treeplanters working in the Burns Lake region in May.
“It’s drier than normal this year. Usually we get more rain,” as Earl Hughes, owner of forestry service company Waterside Ventures told Lakes District News.
“If it stays dry the soils compact and it’s harder to put the shovel in the ground. It’s not too bad right now because we still have moisture from the winter.”
The reforestation effort in the Nadina District will see more than 16 million seedlings planted this year, said Ministry of Forests, Lands, Natural Resource Operations and Rural Development (FLNRORD) spokesperson Dawn Makarowski.
Companies like Waterside Ventures will plant about 12 million, and BC Timber Sales around 4 million.
For the May-June contract period, Hughes’ company of 50-60 planters is scheduled to plant 3 million trees, mostly pine and spruce and some fir and larch.
Few deciduous seedlings will be planted this season, despite their role as natural firebreaks, and most Forest Stewardship Plans (FSP) for the Nadina District don’t call for the planting of deciduous species, Makarowski said.
“However, landscape level plans are being developed to address fire mitigation. Once those plans are developed in collaboration with the BC Wildfire Service, the FSP would be amended to incorporate the planting of deciduous species,” she added.
Hughes hopes the weather improves both for the sake of the tree seedlings and his staff.
“Survival of the seedlings will be tough without moisture. It affects the production too because if it gets hot people don’t want to plant.”
The planting blocks of Westside Ventures include areas in Topley and the west and south sides of Francois Lake.
Though the west side of Francois Lake was hit hard in last summer’s wildfires, Hughes’ blocks aren’t in those areas.
“Generally they wait until the second year after fires. It can happen where there are diseases and caterpillars that can eat the seedlings. We plant trees that were logged within two years or the following year.”
Other than those insect risks – particularly from the larvae of adult army cutworm moths – wildfires don’t affect the ability to put trees in the ground. In fact, before planting many areas are subjected to prescribed burning to remove organic material and slash and prepare it for reforestation.
However, “if wildfire intensity is very high, it can reduce the layer of organic material that protects the top of the soil, which also provides nutrients to seedlings,” Makarowski said.
With Waterside Ventures, tree prices range from 16 cents to 20-29 cents per tree, depending on the type of ground.
In favourable weather and good land conditions Hughes’ planters can put 2,000-3,000 trees into the ground in one day. | [

April 24th will come and pass without most Americans realizing its significance.
But it happens to be the day known as “Tax Freedom Day.”
|You'll believe anything!|
That sounds really cool.
This is a day for us to celebrate.
So why does it go unnoticed?
Well for one reason it’s not real.
We don’t stop paying tax on April 24th and in fact most of us will continue to pay taxes every day for the rest of our lives.
And taxes are taken out of every paycheck and collected on most if not all sales.
So how is April 24th a day of tax freedom?
Well if workers added up their entire gross salary for every day they worked from the start of the year and gave every penny to the government April 24th would be the day they have paid their entire tax bill for the year.
|April 24th? Hah!|
In other words they finally start working for themselves!
Of course if you add all the other costs you must pay then the day gets moved a little further down the calendar.
For example if you add up all the money you pay to insurance companies of all sorts and utility companies who must be fed you might actually be depressed to note that not even the first eight months of the year are yours to keep!
But let’s just talk taxes.
The above scenario only actually affects the middle class.
How can this be you might ask.
Well the poor and homeless among us do not earn enough to survive let alone pay taxes so they are not affected.
And large corporations and the wealthiest among us, or rather above us as they would prefer be called pay little or no taxes to begin with and in some case are even rewarded with subsidies as is the case with that poor indigent corporation Exxon.
For this group Tax Freedom Day actually comes and passes at the one second mark of January the first every year.
So armed with the knowledge that the middle class pays most of the taxes in America one might think that they are the most important group and should be protected.
Surely if they are not around anymore then America will not have enough revenue to operate!
So how come one political party in particular is trying to squeeze them out of existence?
We don't need no stinkin Glaciers!!
Perhaps it is for the same reason they also wish to ignore that Global Climate change is caused by human actions and could eventually ruin the environment so vital to our future.
And that reason is pandering to the wealthy!
Most large corporations and the people who run them make their money by ignoring the environmental consequences of their actions. Following rules and regulations can cut into your profit margin.
And if you are sued for negligence that causes a death here and there or an oil spill that kills thousands of creatures and pollutes the environment your attorneys can drag things out until the public forgets and a lawmaker is convinced to slap you on the wrist and move on.
You see when you don’t have to worry about money or taxes for that matter you are free to spend as you like.
And what better way to spend your money than to buy and own a government!
|Art Pope is not a Pope!|
When billionaire right winger Art Pope bought the elections in North Carolina he populated the legislature with his cronies and placed himself as the States’ Budget Director.
In that role he decided to stop funding the States education system. He also fired the head of the State’s education system for no apparent reason and then blocked certain courses from their medical school on what might appear to be religious grounds!
|Former head of NC School system|
Tom Ross never saw what hit him.
He was too intelligent to think
anyone could be so stupid!
The school, University of North Carolina, UNC was once considered the bright spot in the State and one of the top medical schools in the nation. It is now in danger of losing its accreditation as a medical school.
What a tremendous blow not only to education in North Carolina but to the State as a whole.
But megalomaniac Art Pope is not alone in his dream of total control. The Koch brothers are scheming to steal National elections and are currently working to place their favorite son, Scott Walker in the White House. (Please click the links for more information!)
|Vote for me|
AND MY FAMILY!
In a plot straight out of “The Omen” if this happens look out America, or rather look out American Middle Class!
When and if these men and others like them realize their dreams the American Dream will devolve into a nightmare.
And if that comes to pass Tax Freedom Day for those of us still around will most likely be pushed back to late December. | [

The first Russian woman to live aboard the International Space Station returned to Earth on Thursday, alongside a NASA astronaut and a Russian crewmate.
Cosmonaut Elena Serova was the last to emerge from the Soyuz capsule after its touchdown amid the foggy, snowy steppes of Kazakhstan, not long after sunrise on Thursday (10:07 p.m. ET Wednesday). She was preceded out of the hatch by the Soyuz craft's Russian commander, Alexander Samokutyaev; and the space station's outgoing commander, NASA astronaut Barry "Butch" Wilmore.
"The guys are great and worked very well," Reuters quoted Serova as saying as she went through her post-landing medical checks.
The homecoming came three and a half hours after the trio pulled away from the station, ending a nearly six-month orbital tour of duty. "Soft landing, guys. We're going to miss you," the station's new commander, NASA astronaut Terry Virts, told his departing crewmates via radio. Virts, Russia's Anton Shkaplerov and Italy's Samantha Cristoforetti will stay on the station until May.
A fresh trio will fly up at the end of this month, and two of those spacefliers — NASA's Scott Kelly and Russia's Mikhail Kornienko — are due to spend an entire year in orbit as a test for even longer-duration spaceflights to Mars.
Serova is only the fourth Russian woman to go into outer space, and the first since Elena Kondakova flew to Russia's Mir space station aboard the space shuttle Atlantis in 1997. In contrast, NASA has flown more than 40 women astronauts.

With everything that is going on, a control freak like myself feels like things are spinning out of control. So what do I do to regain that control: reorganize and rearrange. I started with our kitchen pantry, then moved on to the linen closet. After that, my craft corner. And this is where my story begins.
I purchased a Cricut Maker last summer and fell deeply in love. With this new craft maker came supplies, lots of supplies. I bought vinyl of all kinds: glossy, glitter, iron-on, holographic and so on. I bought tons of card stock: standard, textured, glitter, and metallic. I bought a foil burner and easy press (for iron-on). However, with all these supplies came no space to house them. My craft closet was already full. What was I to do? I made a space.
Here's how I did it.
- Bookcase- Fabric Cube Storage Bin 11"
- Drawer Dividers
- Thin trash baskets
- Spice jar grippers
- Wired wall baskets
- Thin plywood
- Hanging shelf
- Pen desk organizer
- Tablet stand
I haven't even been blogging for a week and I have already missed a night, but I had a good reason. I was making penguin cupcakes for a BBQ in Saturday. I know, it doesn't sound like a good reason, but at 12:30am I was still decorating them and they are not done. Anywhy, I won't go into too much details about it, this is a blog on a children's book website, is it not... although, there is a crafts corner tab on this site and this project fits perfectly into that section, so what the heck.
I received a creative cupcake book for Christmas a couple of years ago and have yet to actually make something from it. So I decided for this BBQ where kids would be in attendance, it would be a perfect opportunity. I chose the penguin recipe cause it seemed to be the easiest out of all I read. Little did I know. Starting this project at 7:30 at night after getting home from work, was probably not a good thing. However, I have my writing conference this weekend, so I will not have Saturday before the BBQ to work on them. Now thinking about it, it probably was a good thing, cause now I have a second night to finish. They're coming out ok, nothing like the pictures, but when do they ever. It's just a lot more work than I anticipated. And last night I asked: What did I get myself into?
Blogs are whatever we make them. Defining ‘Blog’ is a fool’s errand. | [

15-year-old migrant boy found dead in Rio Grande Valley buried in Guatemala hometown
Moises Castillo, Associated Press
SAN JOSE LAS FLORES, Guatemala — A 15-year-old Guatemalan migrant was buried in his hometown Saturday, nearly a month after he became a symbol of the perils facing unaccompanied children who have been flooding illegally into the U.S.
Residents of Gilberto Francisco Ramos Juarez's mountain hometown of San Jose de las Flores filled the house where he grew up to pay respects to the boy lying in a gray and silver coffin beside an altar filled with highland flowers and candles.
A monja blanca orchid, the national flower of Guatemala, was placed on the front door in a sign of mourning. Women prayed inside the house while men waited outside to carry Ramos Juarez's body to the mountaintop cemetery overlooking his village.
"Here, only sadness will remain," said the boy's father, Francisco Ramos.
The discovery of the boy's decomposed body in the Rio Grande Valley on June 15 highlighted the hardships that afflict young migrants as the U.S. government searches for ways to deal with record numbers of children from Central America who are sneaking into the country.
Gilberto was found with a rosary that his mother gave him still around his neck and a brother's Chicago phone number scribbled on the inside of his belt buckle. The body was less than a mile from the nearest U.S. home. He apparently got lost on his way north and likely died from exposure. An autopsy did not find signs of trauma.
His father said that the family had borrowed the $2,500 the boy needed to make the trip north and that they still owe the money.
The boy's uncle, Catarino Ramos, said workers make about $3.50 for a day's work where they live in the mountains of northern Guatemala.
"He left because of poverty, because he wanted to help buy his mother's medicine," Catarino Ramos said.

As the snow melted the sheep found their green grass again to eat. Many sheep keep the East Devon fields tidy in the winter when most of the cattle are not to be seen as they winter in the warm sheds on the farm, being fed the silage that had been made in the summer close to the village of Dalwood.
Some ewes on the Devon Farm have already had their lambs and can be seen in the fields with their mothers, you may think it is too cold for them but as long as their mums give them a good helping of milk to fill their bellys, they are fine out in the cold with their mums. These young ewes will not be lambing until March, so by then the days will be longer and brighter. A superb time for a holiday in the splendid holiday cottages.
We have many snowdrops that bring cheer to us, it shows us spring is on its way soon. The winter is a very beautiful time, the bulbs are moving up out of the ground and soon more flowers will be seen. A lovely sight for visitors alike that want to have a peaceful getaway staying at the luxury holiday accommodation near Honiton and Axminster.

Revolver FN Barracuda (Belgium)
FN Barracuda revolver with.357 magnum cylinder installed
FN barracuda revolver with both cylinders removed (.357 /.38 top, 9x19 bottom). Also shown are cartridges of respective caliber and steel clip for 9x19 ammunition
The "Barracuda" revolver was the only known attempt of famous company FN Herstal to produce a revolver. It was developed during early 1970s and offered for police sales in 1974. This weapon was developed as a versatile police sidearm, suitable for both European and American markets. At the time, US police market was dominated by.38 Special and.357 magnum revolvers, and European police market was mostly dominated by pocket-type automatic pistols with trends mowing toward 9x19 Luger caliber. Considering all that, as well as a very close similarity in bullet diameter of all those rounds, FN decided to produce a revolver that could interchangeably fire all those rounds. To change between "American".357 /.38 calibers and "European" 9mm Luger / Parabellum, one must simply install an appropriate cylinder to a basic gun frame. As the 9mm ammo is rimless, to achieve reliable extraction and fast loading, 9mm rounds are loaded using special star-shaped flat clips that hold 6 rounds together. Rimmed revolver rounds are extracted using their rims, and can be loaded one by one or 6 rounds at once using speedloaders developed for Smith&Wesson K-frame revolvers. 9mm rounds also can be loaded one by one without clip, but extraction would be problematic.
The FN "Barracuda" revolver is more or less traditional double-action revolver with swing-out cylinder. Firing pin is installed in the frame of the gun for better safety. It is of all-steel construction, with solid frame and heavy, lugged barrel. Only one barrel length of 3 inches (76mm) was available. Sights were fixed, with the front sight blade pinned to the barrel.

Robert Lewandowski has a contract with Bayern Munich until 2023, but there is a lot of talk about his future.
The Polish striker could leave the German club next summer and one of the clubs interested in acquiring his services is Barcelona.
Joan Laporta was questioned about Lewandowski by a fan at the Reale Arena to which he gave an interesting response.
"This one has more of a chance of coming," he said.
Several reasons may push the Pole to leave Bayern Munich and, according to L'Equipe, the player is not entirely comfortable at the German club.
On the one hand, he is not totally content about the fact the club doesn't want to offer him two more years with an even higher salary, but simply one season with the same wage.
According to the French newspaper, another meeting is scheduled for next week to discuss the issue.
In addition, according to L'Equipe, Lewandowski is also not comfortable with the coach and the system of play he has adopted. Despite being crowned the Bundesliga's top scorer for yet another season, the Pole believes that Julian Nagelsmann's footballing ideas are considerably reducing his involvement in the game. | [

Gov. signs transgender hate crimes bill into law
Crimes that target transgender person because of their sexual identify carry an extra penalty in Nevada.
Republican Gov. Brian Sandoval signed Senate Bill 139 into law Tuesday. The new law adds a person’s “gender identity or expression” to the list of motivating factors interpreted as a hate crime.
Defendants face the penalties for the actual crime committed, and up to an additional 20 years in prison for the motivation.
The bill breezed through the Senate with only one vote of opposition, and it passed the Assembly 30-11.
Democratic Sen. Pat Spearman of North Las Vegas was the primary sponsor of the legislation. | [

Deer hunting trip has long been a well-liked leisure activity. While some see it as a sport, others see it as an essential part of managing and conserving wildlife. Regardless of personal viewpoints, every hunter must comprehend the ethics of deer hunting to ensure they engage in the activity morally and responsibly. The morality of deer hunting will be discussed in this article, along with some essential information that every hunter should know.
Respect for the animal is one of the most crucial elements of ethical deer hunting. This entails ensuring the animal doesn’t suffer unnecessarily and that every part of the animal is used. The animal must be put to death as soon as possible while being handled humanely, which can be accomplished with the proper training and tools.
Fair chase refers to the idea that hunters should pursue their prey in a way that gives the animal a decent chance to flee. This entails avoiding unfair tactics like baiting animals or hunting in enclosed areas. To ensure that the activity is truly a test of skill and not just luck, it is crucial to maintain equality between the hunter and the prey.
Deer hunting should be regarded as a sustainable activity in a larger ecosystem. Hunters must know the significance of preserving a robust deer population and refraining from overharvesting in a particular area. This entails abiding by regional hunting laws, respecting hunting quotas, and preserving deer-friendly habitats.
The ethics of trophy hunting: In the hunting community, there is debate over hunting animals solely for their antlers or other body parts or trophy hunting. Others consider it an unethical and wasteful practice, despite some contending that it can be a valuable source of funding for conservation efforts. When deciding to hunt for trophies, hunters should carefully consider their values and beliefs.
Deer hunting trip effects on local communities can be both positive and negative. Deer hunting is one example. On the one hand, it can offer rural communities a crucial source of food and income. However, it may also cause conflicts with other land uses and hurt regional ecosystems. Hunters must be aware of these potential effects and take steps to mitigate any adverse effects.
Educating Upcoming Deer Hunters About Ethics:
Many people worldwide take part in the popular activity of deer hunting. For many hunters, deer hunting trip is a way of life passed down through the generations. However, given that hunting is becoming increasingly popular, it is crucial to ensure that new hunters are informed about the morals and obligations associated with the sport. New hunters can learn the skills they need to hunt safely and effectively from guides during guided hunts in New York, and they can also learn about the moral principles that should govern their behavior.
The fair chase principle is one of the most critical moral issues in deer hunting. When hunting, hunters should give their prey a fair chance to flee by giving them a fair chase. Avoiding unfair advantages like baiting or hunting in places where animals are confined entails doing this. Guided hunts in New York can help advance moral hunting habits and guarantee that the sport continues to be a test of skill and not just a matter of luck by educating novice hunters about the significance of fair chase as guided by hunts in New York.
Respect for the animal is a crucial ethical factor when hunting deer. This entails ensuring the animal doesn’t endure needless suffering and that every part of the animal is used. Guided hunts in New York can support ethical hunting habits centered on the sustainable use of natural resources by educating novice hunters about the value of respect for the animal. | [

गृहपृष्ठ ‘Media council bill to end aberrations in media’
‘Media council bill to end aberrations in media’
Chief Minister of State-5, Shankar Pokhrel, has said that it was a compulsion to bring bill related to media council to end increasing evils and aberrations in the media.
Saying the government was aware on how to make media strong and powerful, Chief Minister Pokhrel expressed the belief that the bill related to media council would help end the evils and aberrations plaguing the media.
On the occasion of 13th anniversary of Radio Madhya Paschim at Ghorahi today, he said that the government was active to make press strong and powerful as democracy could not be strong without independent press. ‘The state has brought this bill to make media stronger. The bill has no provision to curtail press freedom,’ he said.
Saying democracy would be in difficult if State becomes weak, the Chief Minister said that the state would be strong and powerful only if the people become strong. He said that the State would not carry out activities hampering press freedom as the role played by press for democracy was incomparable.
Chief Minister Pokhrel said that the State-5, out of seven states, is at the forefront in laws and periodic plan formulation, employment adjustment. (RSS)

City officials yesterday began dusting off emergency plans for Hurricane Floyd, which could sweep across New York’s shorefront as early as tomorrow night.
“It’s unclear now whether it will come this way,” Mayor Giuliani said of the powerful hurricane that hit the Bahamas and then blustered along the Florida coast.
The latest forecast from the National Weather Service predicts Floyd will be downgraded to an “extra-tropical storm” by the time it hits the metropolitan area – but that it will still do damage.
Four to six inches of rain are predicted with winds ranging from 40 to 60 mph tomorrow night and Friday morning. Gusts could reach up to 75 mph.
“We’re going to have to keep our eyes on this but it looks like it’s going to just be a very bad rainstorm,” said Mike Wyllie, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service.
“By Friday night, it should be completely clear of the area.”
Wyllie said there was still a chance Floyd could stay classified as a hurricane if the storm moves eastward instead of plowing into Charleston, S.C., as is currently forecast.
Jerry Hauer, director of the mayor’s Office of Emergency Management, said the worst-case scenario would see Floyd hitting New York as a Category-2 hurricane with winds up to 110 mph.
Firefighters and cops began distributing 50,000 pamphlets about hurricane preparedness in areas that would be hit hardest by the storm.
The neighborhoods include: all of the Rockaways in Queens; Edgewater, City Island, and Clasons Point in The Bronx, shore areas of Staten Island, and Brighton Beach and Coney Island in Brooklyn.
Board of Education officials were contacted to ensure that there would be enough temporary shelter space in various inland schools should coastal neighborhoods need to evacuate.
Hauer said the FDR Drive and the Belt Parkway could also flood if Floyd struck with any strength.
In 1996, Giuliani came within hours of implementing evacuation plans for coastline areas when Hurricane Edouard approached the city. | [

Cracking open a jar of Pink Boost Goddess is an olfactory wandering into a field of mint and not-quite-ripe strawberries. Terpinolene, a terpene found in the Jack and Haze strain families, provides a hint of orange rind alongside a woodsy floral aroma from the terpene ocimene. For Katie Jeane, this particular type of cannabis has continued to be a guide. Jeane has cultivated Pink Boost Goddess for the past seven years through her farm Emerald Spirit Botanicals and appreciates the insight it provides.
“What I’ve found is it helps me to go, in my life, into these kind of trickier, more challenging places and gives me a larger perspective to be able to find solutions,” she says. “That is unique for me, that this medicine offers that, and it offers it from a joyful place.”
Jeane, a former preschool teacher from Mendocino County, was called to work with the cannabis plant by her internal spirit guide. Following her “soul path” and listening to the insight she gained from beyond everyday consciousness led her to initially begin growing cannabis that was high in the cannabinoid CBD. After working with different cultivars (Dancing Sun, Equinox, Crystal Hope, and Harmony Rose) to bring them into a balanced 1:1 THC to CBD ratio, she was looking to explore other cannabinoids with unique medicinal properties and came across THCV.
THCV, or tetrahydrocannabivarin, has shown promise in animal studies for its ability to decrease appetite and speed up metabolism. These qualities mean the cannabinoid may help treat conditions like diabetes and obesity.
“THCV has been shown to restore insulin sensitivity in diet-induced obese mice models and [reduce] obesity by modulating the metabolic processes,” a 2020 study in the Journal of Cannabis Research reads.
Additional studies have also shown THCV has neuroprotective qualities and might be a promising therapy for delaying the progression of Parkinson’s disease. Unlike THC, which brings on the “high” associated with cannabis, a 2015 study in the Journal of Psychopharmacology shows THCV has a much more muted psychoactive effect.
“Because we were working with CBD there wasn’t necessarily this relationship to getting high like THC has, but [THCV] brings in gifts that cannabis has to offer in a different way,” Jeane’s son and business partner Joseph Haggard says. “I think what it’s doing for people is it’s bringing in a subtle difference in their cannabis experience. They’re not necessarily aware of what they’re missing, but they just like what it’s adding.”
Cannabis interacts with the endocannabinoid system so that our bodies can achieve homeostasis, or balance. Both Haggard and Jeane believe the best way to use cannabis as a medicine is through balanced cannabinoid ratios.
“When you look at the endocannabinoid system—which is a system inside our body which is responsible for balance—it’s responsible for homeostasis,” Haggard explains. “And so if we’re going to feed that endocannabinoid system—and that’s what we’re doing by using cannabis we’re essentially supplementing that system—we want to be supplementing that system with balanced cannabinoid ratios. That’s kind of our intuition.”
Cultivating a Goddess
Pink Boost Goddess is a cross of Black Garlic, Boost, and an unknown Goddess. The cultivar was created by Linda Lu and came to Jeane as a seed from friends. The first plants Jeane grew only had a small amount of THCV, but throughout the years she has bred the plant to show higher ratios of the cannabinoid.
With her plants now expressing as much as 11% THCV, Pink Boost Goddess has been recognized for its unique attributes. It won first place in the third-party certified sungrown category of the 2021 Emerald Cup and took home the highest THCV content award and regenerative farm award that year. In 2022, Pink Boost Goddess won the Emerald Cup’s sungrown category again and was honored with a Gold Ribbon in the California State Fair Cannabis Awards unique category.
Pink Boost Goddess is a medium-sized plant with long branches that Jeane describes as “dancing arms” with a quality of flexibility and movement. The leaves are relatively narrow, and the buds have magenta and pink pistils and are generally ready for harvest after eight weeks of flowering.
“Of course, it’s really good medicine for many people, but it’s like a special gift to me, a special medicine,” Jeane says of her long-term relationship with the cultivar and her belief that the plant is repaying her for all the years of love and support.

EDSA Bus Lane will be also be guarded by LTO flying squad
The EDSA Bus Carousel (AKA: bus lane) has been established by the government to rapidly move commuters by dedicating a lane specifically for buses on the main artery of Metro Manila. It’s been there for quite a few years now yet a lot of drivers and motorcycle riders continue to ignore the exclusivity of this lane and many times inhibit the flow of commuters.
The Land Transportation Office (LTO) had enough of these unruly motorists and will deploy additional personnel to assist the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority (MMDA) in enforcing the bus lane.
“It has already become a habit of a lot of motorists to abuse the EDSA Bus Carousel. We recognize the limited manpower of the MMDA to strictly enforce and while the LTO has the same problem, we will tap some of our enforcers to reinforce our brothers in the MMDA in keeping an eye on the EDSA Bus Carousel,” said LTO Chief, Atty. Vigor Mendoza II.
Mendoza also vowed to immediately penalize those who violate the EDSA bus lane.
The MMDA has repeatedly warned motorists that no private vehicles may use the EDSA Bus Carousel lane or the innermost lanes of EDSA. This lane has been reserved for city buses and vehicles being used for emergency response like ambulances, fire trucks, and police cars.
The difference with the LTO, however, is that they can actually confiscate driver's licenses while the MMDA does not.
Will this make a difference? A lot of motorists continue to defy these rules amid repeated requests and warnings. Will this act of the LTO also include the apprehension of private vehicles and their escorts with blinkers and sirens or wang wang – possibly from politicians – that continue to use the bus lane to avoid the traffic congestion along EDSA? | [

Crime Thriller Review: Hell And Gone By Duane Swierczynski
Duane Swierczynski is the author of several crime thrillers, including Severance Package which has been optioned by Lionsgate films. He is a very active writer in the comics world and has collaborated on several projects with Marvel Comics. He lives in Philadelphia with his wife and children.
Hell and Gone is the second book in a series shaped around the adventures of an ex policeman named Charlie Hardie. In the first book, Fun and Games, we get to know who Charlie is: He is deeply shaken by the fact that he got his partner on the Philadelphia police department and his family killed by members of a mob. He ends up in LA, where he meets a young actress on the run from The Accident People.
The second book, Hell and Gone, is a continuation of the story: Left for dead after an epic shootout, Charlie Hardie realizes that when dealing with The Accident People, things can get worse. Drugged, bound and transported by strange operatives of unknown origin, Hardie awakens to find himself captive in a secret prison that houses the most dangerous criminals on earth. Knowing that his wife and son could be next on the Accident People’s hit list, Hardie is forced to employ a strange strategy to get out of the trap.
This is one of those books in which can make a great thriller movie: You can sense, while reading, that the author has had this mind as well: Fast-paced from the start, a story full of non-stop mayhem and bizarre twists especially at the end. The author’s interest in comic stories shows itself in this noir thriller in a clear way. All these elements make Hell and Gone an enjoyable read. We recommend this book to readers who are looking for fast-moving thrillers with a touch of noir.

Let’s go to school on subsidies.
The starring case study: The student debt crisis.
Naturally, when you subsidize something you get more of it. With subsidized low interest rates on student loans, we’ve spurred more people to go to college than ever before.
But now 40 percent of them use loans to do so, and critics think we’re encouraging overborrowing.
Student debt has reached a not-so-cool $1 trillion. Young people saddled with big loan payments are putting off marrying and having children, and buying cars and houses, and they’re not starting businesses.
But the real lesson about subsidies hides behind deeper questions: Who really benefits from a subsidy? In whose pockets does the money end up?
In the Aug. 15 Rolling Stone, writer Matt Taibbi, notable for his take-downs of the financial industry, catches on to the student loan subsidy game.
One part of the article, headlined
“Ripping off young America: The college loan scandal,”
points out that the fight in Washington over keeping the relatively low 3.4 percent interest rate on student loans is a sideshow.
The real scandal is not, he writes, the cost of the loan, “it’s the principal, the appallingly high tuition costs soaring at two to three times the rate of inflation, an irrational upward trajectory.”
Washington politicians have been slow to tackle rising tuition, although just last week President Barack Obama
proposed a college rating system
that would tie federal student aid to the institutions’ performance.
Educators were lukewarm about it. And based on Taibbi’s article, it will be stillborn in Congress. Democrats get a lot of money from the education lobby while Republicans want interest rates and tuition set by market forces.
In his article, Taibbi links the soaring tuition to the subsidized student loan system engineered by politicians, bankers and educators.
Again, think through the question: In whose pockets does the money end up?
Consider that from 1984 to 2011, according to The Wall Street Journal, median U.S. household income rose 8 percent. But private college tuition is up 100 percent and public college tuition has soared 163 percent.
In the meantime, federal student aid jumped from just $234 million in 1964 to $105 billion today, and taxpayers back that $1 trillion in student loans.
The average student debt is now $27,000.
So say you’re a college president or CFO. And you know that potential students — and their parents! — can easily get a low-interest loan.
Isn’t it just natural to capture at least part of that subsidy? Wouldn’t you raise tuition because your customers can better afford it?
You get your tuition money and the banks get their cut. Graduates are burdened with debt to pay off years down the road with whatever educations they left with.
Taibbi says this is especially egregious in the case of “crappy” for-profit schools.
Educators tell Taibbi they aren’t to blame for the increase in tuition. In part, they’re right. Tuition has risen in recent years to make up for state funding cuts. But that’s just in recent years.
(Educators should look up the work of one of their own: Richard Vedder, who directs the Center for College Affordability and Productivity at Ohio University. WSJ carried
with Vedder last weekend.)
Despite the protestations of educators, I don’t think they’re immune from playing the subsidy game. It’s a game hard to avoid. It’s played when we buy a house, go to the doctor, and even buy food.
Do you think you really benefit from the mortgage loan interest deduction, a subsidy for the purchase of your house? Or from the Fed’s artificially low interest rates, in essence another subsidy?
Not as much as you think. The seller of the house just raises the price, often enough to wipe out whatever amount you save on taxes or interest payments for several years.
Health care insurance is also subsidized through the tax breaks your employer gets. And by the insurance payment mechanism itself, which makes it appear somebody else is picking up the bill.
Many economists say that’s why health costs continue rising. Hospitals and doctors feel no direct pressure to keep prices down. Instead they just pocket the subsidy.
We subsidize some farmers. But then they often overproduce, which lowers what they get for their crops.
The subsidy should flow to consumers in lower food prices. But raw materials make up a relatively small fraction of the ultimate food product.
The subsidy really benefits food processors, who get cheaper raw materials for their end products.
Subsidies do indeed help people, but keep in mind who wins the | [

Indoor Hydroponics Farm Setup
Indoor hydroponics farming is an innovative way of growing plants in a controlled environment, without the use of soil. It involves providing plants with nutrients and water through a nutrient-rich water solution. Here are some basic steps to set up an indoor hydroponics farm:
- Choose a suitable location: Select an indoor space that has sufficient lighting, ventilation, and temperature control. A spare room, basement, or garage could be good options.
- Select a hydroponic system: There are various types of hydroponic systems available, such as deep water culture, drip irrigation, nutrient film technique, and aeroponics. Choose a system that suits your budget, space, and the type of plants you want to grow.
- Choose plants to grow: Some popular crops grown using hydroponics are lettuce, tomatoes, herbs, and strawberries. Choose plants that are suitable for the hydroponic system you have chosen.
- Purchase hydroponic supplies: Purchase supplies such as nutrient solution, growing media, grow lights, air pumps, and water pumps.
- Install the hydroponic system: Follow the manufacturer’s instructions to install the hydroponic system. Make sure to test the system before planting any crops.
- Plant the seeds: Follow the instructions on the seed packet for planting. Make sure to plant the seeds in the appropriate growing media and provide them with the required nutrients.
- Maintain the hydroponic system: Regularly monitor the system to ensure that the plants are getting the necessary nutrients and water. Adjust the pH level and nutrient levels as necessary. Prune and harvest the plants regularly.
By following these steps, you can set up your indoor hydroponics farm and grow fresh, healthy crops all year round.
Types Of Indoor Farms
Vertical farms: These farms use stacked layers of plants to maximize the use of space. They can be set up in any indoor space and are often used in urban areas where land is limited.
Hydroponic farms: These farms grow plants without soil, using nutrient-rich water instead. This allows for precise control over plant growth and can result in higher yields.
Aquaponic farms: These farms combine hydroponics with aquaculture (raising fish) in a symbiotic system. The fish waste provides nutrients for the plants, while the plants filter the water for the fish.
Aeroponic farms: These farms grow plants in a mist or fog environment, with the roots suspended in the air. This allows for maximum oxygen and nutrient absorption and can result in faster growth.
Indoor greenhouse farms: These farms use traditional greenhouse methods, but are located indoors. They provide a controlled environment for plants, protecting them from pests, disease, and weather fluctuations.
Container farms: These farms are housed in shipping containers, making them easy to transport and set up in any location. They often use hydroponic or aeroponic systems and can be used for a variety of crops.
Plant factories: These farms use advanced technologies like LED lighting and climate control to create an optimal environment for plant growth. They can produce crops year-round and are often used to grow high-value crops like herbs and spices. | [

Ein grosses Problem bei vielen Paracordisten ist das genaue berechnen der flachen Länge eines Arm- oder Halsbandes. Auf der Seite „Tied In Knotz“ stand bis vor kurzer Zeit die wohl beste Erklärung dazu warum und wieso dieses Problem existiert und wie man vorgehen muss um jenes zu umgehen. Leider ist die Seite „Tied In Knotz“ seit einiger Zeit nicht mehr Online und ich habe hier einen Snapshop aus dem Webarchiv erstellt.
Once you have an accurate Wrist Size Measurement, how do you calculate the correct Flat Layout Length? Remember, Wrist Size is really just the circumference around the wrist where the bracelet will be worn. Wrist Size IS NOT the same as Flat Layout Length.
Making bracelets for yourself, and sizing them correctly, can usually be done by the old „trial and error method„. That is if you create your bracelet and it turns out too tight (or too loose); you merely make another one and adjust the length accordingly.
But what about when you are making a bracelet for someone else and all you have is their Wrist Size Measurement? Then you can’t use the „trial and error“ method. Rather you need to have a reliable way to calculate how long you need to make the bracelet, so that when it is closed around the wrist of the one you are making it for; it will fit just right. Learning how to make the needed calculation is not that hard, but it does involve some basic equations and mathematical axioms having to do with circles, circumferences, diameters and the mathematical constant known as pi (3.14159). To the best of my knowledge, the following information does not exist anywhere else on the internet.
The real secret to making a properly sized paracord bracelet begins with an understanding of three specific circles. In fact, the fabrication of any type of bracelet that embodies some significant thickness, requires an understanding of these three circles and the relationship between them. The thickness parameter can be anything including paracord knots, beads, chain links, twine or rope.
Circle A is the Outside Circumference of the bracelet.
Circle B is the Inside Circumference of the bracelet, and is equivalent to the desired Wrist Size, for a snug fit. To provide a bracelet that is just a little less snug, this Inside Circumference should be increased by 1/16 to 1/8 inch. Some might even prefer it to be a full 1/4 inch longer, but much more than that, and the bracelet becomes too loose to be comfortable. No one wants a sloppy fitting bracelet.
Circle C is known as the Pitch Circumference, and is an imaginary circle that is exactly half way between the Diameter of Circle A and Circle B.
Thickness of the bracelet is the lineal distance between Circle A and Circle B, also known as the cross-sectional distance. If the bracelet has a fairly constant thickness around the entire circumference, than this lineal distance may be represented by a single measured distance. However, if the bracelet thickness varies significantly, than it is advisable to take several measurements around the circumference of a sample bracelet, and then calculate an average thickness.
As with any circle, each of these circles also has an associated Diameter (d). As may be seen in the drawing above, these Diameters are represented as dA, dB and dC, and would be directly related to their associated Circumference values by the mathematical constant (pi) π (3.14159).
Since Circumference is equal to πd; C = πd, then it follows that d = C/π
The unknown parameter that every bracelet maker MUST be able to calculate is what I call the Flat Layout Dimension. And, the Flat Layout Dimension is the measurement from end to end when the bracelet is laid out flat on your bench or working surface. It turns out this Flat Layout Dimension is exactly equivalent to one of the three Circles I mentioned above. In fact, the Flat Layout Dimension is equal to the Circumference of Circle C. However, as you might recall, Circle C is the imaginary circle that is situated exactly half way between the Diameter of Circle A and Circle B. This is not a problem because as it turns out, we can easily calculate the Circumference of this imaginary circle, in terms of the other circle parameters that we do know.
If we do this one step at a time, you will see how we can arrive at the circumference of the imaginary circle, and thus obtain the appropriate Flat Layout Dimension for any given Wrist Size Measurement.
First, we calculate the diameter d of Circle B. We find the diameter dB | [
