Work has beein ongoing since June 2012. As of January 2013, grinding, paving and permanent striping is complete on U.S. 26 and the ramps. From January through the end of the project in summer 2013, work will include sign bridge installation, light pole replacement, sign installation and ramp meter installation.
In the construction period of June 2012 to summer 2013, motorists may encounter single lane closures on U.S. 26 between 8 p.m. and 5:30 a.m. and double lane closures between 10 p.m. and 5 a.m. There will also be intermittent nighttime ramp closures. Motorists should expect short delays on U.S. 26 during nighttime lane closures.
To install the new sign structures, U.S. 26 in sections from Sylvan to I-405 will close in both directions between 11:30 p.m. and 4:30 a.m. This is planned for up to 4 different nights during construction. Three of these nighttime closures occured in January 2013. The fourth closure hasn't yet been scheduled. A signed detour will be in place directing motorists to OR 217 and I-5. | [

Gymnastics is a popular sport that requires a combination of strength, agility, flexibility, and coordination. While gymnastics may look effortless when performed by elite athletes, it actually involves a great deal of science, including physics and biomechanics. Gymnastics coaches should have a good understanding of biomechanics and be able to analyze even the most basic of gymnastics moves.
In this article, we will delve into the science of gymnastics and explore the physics and biomechanics behind our sport.

Physics and Gymnastics
It is easy to be put off by complicated scientific jargon when it comes to physics, however, the aim of this article is to provide a straightforward explanation that can be understood by anyone with an interest in gymnastics.
Where I do use scientific terms there will also be examples of how they can be applied in gymnastics in ‘real life’ examples.
The term ‘Forces’ in physics means anything that causes an object to have a change in motion. This could be a start or stop, a change in direction or a change in the rate of movement.
Gravity is a force that causes a gymnast to fall or drop to the ground after they jump in the air. Although gymnasts are referred to as ‘defying gravity’ unfortunately this is not actually possible!
Friction is another force that affects gymnasts. Friction is created when two surfaces contact each other. For example, a gymnast’s hands make contact with the vault. If the hands are sweaty it will reduce the amount of friction and cause the gymnast to slip off. This is why some gymnasts chalk their hands.
Muscular Force is controlled by the person themselves so it’s referred to as an internal force. A gymnast can decide how much force they put into something and when.
Air Resistance is an external force that has minimal impact on gymnasts because the sport is mostly practiced indoors where there is very little wind or anything that will disrupt a gymnast performing. It’s also one of the reasons why gymnasts wear tight-fitting leotards rather than baggy clothes which could increase air resistance when moving.
Forces are measured in Newtons (n). One newton is equivalent to the force needed to move one kilogram an acceleration of one meter per second. As you probably realize already Newtons are named after Sir Isaac Newton, but more on him and Newton’s Three Laws later in the article.
Momentum is a measure of an object’s motion, and it is defined as the product of its mass and velocity. An object’s momentum is important because it tells us how much force is required to change its motion. Specifically, if a force is applied to an object, it will cause a change in its momentum, which is known as an impulse.
When a gymnast performs a run-up for a vault or a tumbling pass, they build up momentum by accelerating themselves to a high speed. This momentum is then used to launch themselves off the springboard or perform a series of flips and twists in the air. Crucially when a gymnast is at rest, for example standing still at the start of the run-up, they have no momentum.
Center of Gravity
The center of gravity refers to the imaginary point where the force of gravity appears to act on an object. It is the point at which an object’s weight is evenly distributed in all directions. The center of gravity is calculated by taking the weighted average of the positions of all the individual parts of the object.
When a gymnast is standing with their hands by their side, the center of gravity will be around the navel. But when the gymnast lifts their arms above their head the center of gravity moves upwards towards the rib cage.
Understanding where the center of gravity lies is essential for stability. For example on landings gymnasts often spread their feet, raise their arms and bend their knees when landing, as this helps keep their center of gravity over their base of support.
The base of support in this case would be the roughly rectangle-shaped area between the gymnast’s two feet. If an imaginary line ran straight down from the gymnast’s center of gravity, it would hit the floor in the middle of that base, therefore giving the gymnast stability.
If the gymnast dropped their chest down too far on the landing, it would move the center of gravity forwards, and if it moved outside the base of support, the gymnast would become unstable and either fall or need to adjust their foot position.
Biomechanics in Gymnastics
Biomechanics is the study of motion based on mechanics, principles of physics and human anatomy. When we think about sports such as gymnastics biomechanics | [

Update (1116 EST): NASA has published their space borne fire detecting data from the last 24 hours which has picked up a large blaze in the Black Sea, possibly where the oil rig was targeted.
A Chornomornaftogaz Off-Shore drilling platform, specifically BK1, near Odessa, has been struck by Ukrainian surface-surface missiles at 0400 EST. Five have been confirmed killed and seven are missing after the single missile struck the target. This is the first engagement of off shore oil platforms since the February invasion.
The Self-Declared Republic of Crimea head Aksyonov told Russian state owned media that 109 workers were in the rig at the time and that a natural disaster was avoided by the crew. However, BK1 will be offline for a considerable amount of time while repairs are made.
Crimean Senator Kovitidi also had this to say: “We were able to save the field, prevent a technological catastrophe,” Kovitidi said, specifying that production at the field was suspended.
The senator also reported that one platform was damaged during the impact.
“Odessa gas field has been developed by Chernomorneftegaz since 2012. Additional wells were drilled in 2017 and 2018. Only three platforms: BK1, BK2, BK3. BK2, BK3 were not damaged, BK1 will be restored. Gas production at the Odessa field will continue,” Kovitidi said.
Chornomornaftogaz is an oil and gas company located along Krymgazseti in Simferopol, Crimea. It is legally a subsidiary of Ukraine’s state-owned oil and gas company Naftogaz. However, after the 2014 Crimean crisis it was seized by the region’s parliament in the run-up to its annexation by Russia.
The company has licenses for 17 fields, including 11 gas fields, four oil fields and two gas condensate fields. It licenses for offshore fields include Odeske, Shtormove, Prykerchenske, Holitsynske, Arkhangelske, Bezimenne, Subbotinske, and Strilkove. In addition it owns licenses for Jankoy and Semenwckoye onshore fields. Its total reserves of all fields are estimated at 58.6 billion cubic metres (2.07×1012 cu ft) of natural gas, 1.231 million tons of natural-gas condensate, and 2.53 million tons of crude oil. In 2013, Chornomornaftogaz produced 1.651 billion cubic metres (58.3×109 cu ft) of natural gas. In 2012, it produced 1.174 billion cubic metres (41.5×109 cu ft) of natural gas, 62,800 tonnes of natural-gas condensate, and 8,900 tonnes of crude oil. The research group IHS reported that in 2013 Chornomorneftegaz accounted for 7.9% of Ukraine’s gas production and 2.4% of its oil production.
The company owns four jack-up rigs (Syvash, Tavrida, Petro Hodovanets, and Nezalezhnist) and eight fixed drilling platforms. Purchase of Petro Hodovanets (ex-West Juno) and Nezalezhnist was criticized due to corruption and money laundering allegations and higher purchase price that the market price. These rigs were nicknamed the “Boyko towers” after the former energy minister Yuriy Boyko. (Wiki)
This disruption is sure to further exacerbate the Russian Federations oil production crisis and force the Black Sea Fleet to allocate more resources to defend the remaining platforms. | [

2013 Annual Report
1)establish biology and phenology of BMSB in specialty crops,.
2)develop monitoring and management tools for BMSB,.
3)establish effective management programs for BMSB in specialty crops, and.
4)integrate stakeholder input and research findings to form and deliver practical outcomes. Initiated studies of BMSB survivorship, population growth, and phenology, including voltinism potential and overwintering biology. Defined parameters for diagnosis of BMSB injury in orchard crops, small fruit, vegetables, grapes, and ornamentals, and have begun to characterize the severity of the threat to all specialty crops. Feeding-transmitted yeasts have been identified, and studies of the impact of BMSB feeding on resilience in storage have been initiated for both tree fruit and wine grapes. Completed studies to determine the phenology and impact of BMSB in regions that have a history of damage, and began tracking colonization and impact in new habitats. Conducted a study on the influence of landscape and temporal factors on BMSB movement and patterns of feeding injury, and initial trials have been conducted to assess the potential effects of RNAi on BMSB development and reproduction. Began development of monitoring tools through identification of BMSB pheromone and an olfactory synergist, and initiated commercialization to optimize field use of these attractants. We identified visual stimuli for integration into field trapping, initiated studies of BMSB spatial responses to various stimuli, and evaluated other types of monitoring tools including limb jarring, sweep netting, and visual inspections. Evaluated all registered and developmental insecticides against various life stages of BMSB in lab trials and have begun field validation of promising materials. In addition to conventional broadcast insecticides, we initiated studies of alternative control methods, including fungi, repellents and deterrents, and attract-and-kill strategies. Toward biological control, we completed the first phase of studies to determine the host specificity of natural enemies of BMSB in Asia, notably egg parasites. Native parasitoids, predators, and pathogens are also under study for their potential effects on BMSB eggs, nymphs, and adults. Research and extension project staff collaborated across institutions and regions to establish short-term mitigation strategies for BMSB injury in small fruit, orchard crops, grapes, ornamentals, and vegetables leading to initial commercial management recommendations, crop-specific IPM programs for control of BMSB in specialty crops. Begun to quantify the biological, economic, and sociological impacts of BMSB on specialty crop producers through field data analyses and administration of grower surveys. Developed draft outreach and educational programs to bring research results to stakeholders, and launched web-based and print delivery platforms. Held two meetings of our Stakeholder Advisory Panel to review accomplishments, direct research plans, and guide execution of objectives. In Year 1 of this project, the BMSB research team generated 12 research publications, 22 extension and outreach publications, and delivered over 60 research talks to a highly diverse audience of stakeholders. | [

Having just finished a book I am feeling empowered. And not a comic book, but a ‘real’ book. (Don’t you hate that term, by the way? Another column, I suppose.) The books, Masked, is an anthology of superhero short stories, and I enjoyed it enough to want to use my bully pulpit to talk about it, as well as other superheroic prose I’ve read over the years.
The way I see it there are three broad categories of superhero prose: adaptation of a storyline from comics, movie adaptation, and original content. I’ll give my 2 cents on each, but I’m sure my limited purview will be supplemented in the comments.
Adaptation of a Storyline from Comics
This is probably the type of superhero prose I have the most of experience with. My first foray was the novel The Death and Life of Superman by Roger Stern, which was released right around, if not shortly after, the actual story appeared in the comics. I’m pretty sure I read this before reading the actual comics. I remember enjoying it enough that I was willing to try other adapations like…
The Return of the Sinister Six and The Revenge of the Sinister Six each adapting a Spider-Man arc where he, you guessed it, fights the Sinister Six. These were given to me as gifts in giant hardcover format. I read them eagerly and found, to my dismay, that they were not as good. The author just threw everything into each book, even the subplots that weren’t actually resolved in that book. Maybe as a comic reader I should be OK with being left hanging, even by a novel adaptation, but the sub plot felt so distinct from the actual story of the book and its lack of conclusion left me feeling burned. Couple this with the subpar writing, like how in almost every fight scene a comparison was made between Spidey and Olympic athletes, my second prose attempt was met with failure.
Since then I more or less avoided novels based on storylines I could read as comics. Comics are usually a quicker read, more visually stimulating, and deliver the story as originally intended. IAt some point I picked up a Wolverine novel whose name I can’t remember (I have yet to actually finishing unpacking all those books I wrote about a few weeks ago) as well as a Green Lantern novel about the origin of Kyle Rainer (it was on sale). They were both fine. I’m not sure I’m even looking for recommendations for more of these types of books, but I’m sure there are some gems out there to be had for the tenacious reader.
We now live in a world where there are close to a half dozen superhero movies every year, but there was a time when that wasn’t the case. X-Men was good and had done well. Now, a major studio was going to take on… Spider-Man. To say I was excited would be a massive understatement. And in that excitement I bought the novelized adaptation of the movie BEFORE THE MOVIE EVEN CAME OUT. And I read it cover to cover before even having the chance to go to the theater. While heading into the theater with one group of friends, another was on their way out. They were leaving Spider-Man and in my excitement I quoted a line I had really liked from the book. Silence. OK, so maybe it just wasn’t that funny? We then saw the movie, and the line wasn’t in there. The book had lied to me and made me look foolish. Never again, movie adaptation. Never again.
I’ve been wracking my brain and so far the only OG superhero prose I’ve read is the Masked book I just finished. It was really damn good and has left me feeling like I ought to have read more of this stuff but for the life of me I don’t think that I have. Do these books even exist?
I’ve talked lovingly about It’s Superman before, which is original even if based on an iconic comics character. There’s the just released A Once Crowded Sky which might also fit the bill. But it seems by and large that this fertile ground is depauperate of content. Greg Rucka pushed the boundaries by offering story arcs of Queen and Country in novel form, and while I devoured the comic once I hit the point where I needed to pick up a novel I just…stopped. Bill Willingham has also extended the Fables universe in prose form with Peter & Max, which I quite enjoyed and do recommend, even if he did manage to sneak a few pretty pictures in there. And Robert Kirkman co-wrote a Rise of the Governor novel, but again, as much as I love The Walking Dead I just didn’t have the drive to get that book. The more I write the more I worry I might | [

In case you haven’t heard: There is a SERIOUS Bug in iOS/OS X, which is affecting SSL/TSL and basically rendering it ineffective. SSL/TSL is used to encrypt and protect data send via secure connections, e.g. using HTTPS to shop with Amazon, or for your online banking, or sending your passwords encrypted to the networks, e.g. Mail passwords, etc. You are especially vulnerable if you’re outside your secured network (e.g. office or home network), i.e. in a shared network, such as wireless hotspots, mobile network, etc.
Both iOS and OS X are affected, for iOS Apple has already released patches, and they even include the devices that are officially not supported anymore, i.e. 3GS and iPod Touch. For those devices you are to UPDATE to version 6.1.6, all newer devices are to UPDATE to version 7.0.6.
Unfortunately for OS X the patch is still developed, so here you’ll want to check your software status regularly and untill then DO NOT use the Safari browser. You’ll be fine using Firefox, Opera or Chrome, which offer their own implementation of SSL/TSL.
Other applications affected are:
- Software Update
Or to put it short: all Apple software (and third-party software using the Apple Security Framework) that provides ways to connect to servers. It should be relatively safe using these applications at home, but UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES should you use them in wireless networks that other people can use as well, i.e. anywhere outside your secured home network.

Ranchi: Union Minister Suresh Prabhu said that the opposition has no programme or leadership therefore they were diverting the attention of the people and instead of talking about development were busy in making false allegations while on the other hand the BJP was not only giving account of its five years in work but was also presented to the people the vision for the next five years. Replying to the queries of the press during an interaction at the state BJP headquarters here he said that despite development being the central point of BJP’s campaign there are certain issues including the Ram Mandir and Article 370 towards which the party
has its own commitment.
Mr Prabhu said that there is no doubt that massive development has taken place in the country under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi but that does not mean that all other points should not be taken into account. Mr Prabhu who was in Hazaribagh to participate during the nomination of BJP candidate from Hazaribagh Jayant Sinha said that as part of campaigning he is traveling across the country and can confidently say that from North to South, from East to West and in the North East a strong Modi wave was blowing and people are eager to make Narendra Modi Prime Minister once again.
He said that in the last five years many works have been done in all the sectors in the country and now people are of the belief that if such quantum of work could be done in a short span of five years which could not be done in decades, therefore, there is an intent to make him the Prime Minister once again so that the growth momentum continues in the nation. He pointed that as Railways ministers a sum of Rs 2 lakh 75,000 crores was invested in the railway's sector in the span of three years while in the previous 70 years only 3 lakh crore was invested. He also detailed on the growth in the aviation sector and social sectors which have been achieved during the Modi rule. | [

Every year, Liberty magazine prints several endorsements, one for each candidate that libertarians might be interested in voting for. This year there are endorsements for John McCain ("I don’t like him. Actually, I detest him," but he'll lower taxes, argues Stephen Cox), Bob Barr and None of the Above (No endorsement for Chuck Baldwin. Go figure.).
Bruce Ramsey wrote the Barack Obama endorsement. Here's an excerpt:
"McCain was for starting a war with Iraq. Obama was against it. When the occupation went bad, Obama talked about taking soldiers out. McCain talked about bringing them in. McCain, having been a prisoner, was sensitive to the issue of torture, and that is to his credit. But a vote for McCain is a validation of Bush on war and the other things, financial, legal, and cultural, that come with war. And on this issue, McCain is worse than Bush. Military service has defined McCain’s heritage and his life. His moral touchstone is honor. He’s got war written all over him.
"That is why some libertarians will cast their vote this year for the nominee of a party that libertarians do not usually support."Read the whole thing at Liberty Unbound. What was interesting to me about the endorsement was all of the references that Ramsey made to other libertarians who have written in favor of Obama. I knew about Camile Paglia, Scott Flanders and David Friedman.
But Ramsey also points out that libertarian blogger Megan McArdle has said she'll "probably vote for Obama." And he goes the extra step of calling up Brink Lindsey and Gene Healy, who both tepidly support Obama (at least to the extent that he is better than McCain and the other options).
Lindsey: "My sense of fundamental democratic accountability says that when the party in power messes up royally, it should be thrown out on its ear. For Republicans to be rewarded with another term in the White House after eight years of Bush seems really wrong to me."
I'm adding McArdle and Healy to my blogroll. Unfortunately, Lindsey's blog hasn't been updated for almost a year, when he had this interesting post about why he doesn't support Ron Paul. | [

The CBDT has announced that the ‘Cost Inflation Index (CII)’ in respect of Financial Year 2023-24 (Assessment Year 2024-25) shall be 348, which has been increased from 331 announced earlier for the last financial year 2022-23. The CII is used for calculating ‘long term capital gains (LTCG)’ under Income Tax. CBDT announces fresh CII each year using the base year 2001-02 as equal to 100.
Notably, the Finance Act 2017 has modified the provisions relating to the ‘cost inflation index’ or the indexation for calculating long-term capital gains (LTCG). Past provisions have been amended by replacing the old base financial year 1981-82 to new base financial year 2001-02. The income tax assessees have the option of calculating LTCG using Fair Market Value (FMV)/Indexed Cost of acquisition in respect of assets purchased prior to April 1, 2001.
When it comes to calculating the amount of income tax that must be paid on long-term capital gains, the cost inflation index is an extremely helpful tool. The fact that it takes into account the effects of inflation on the initial purchase price of the asset is the primary advantage of utilising the cost inflation index. This is especially the case if the asset was purchased a very long time ago, and the current market value of the asset is significantly greater than the price at which it was originally purchased. If there was no cost inflation index, taxpayers would be subject to an unfair level of taxation on their capital gains.
Long-term capital gains are defined as any profits made from the sale of an asset that has been owned for a period of time that is greater than three years normally. When calculating the amount of tax that must be paid on a long-term capital gain, the cost of the asset’s initial purchase as well as any subsequent improvements must be adjusted for inflation. The utilisation of the cost inflation index serves to accomplish this goal. Cost inflation index is also utilised by the government for the purpose of calculating periodic inflation. By utilising the cost inflation index, taxpayers have the ability to ensure that they are paying the appropriate amount of tax on their capital gains.
Cost Inflation Index (CII) Table OR Capital Gain Indexation Chart (from Base Year 2001-02 to FY 2023-24/ AY 2024-25)
The Capital Gains/Cost Inflation Indexation Chart or Table, as notified/amended by CBDT from time to time, is based on the new base year 2001-02 and covers all financial/assessment years up until 2023-24/2024-25, respectively. Here is a summary of the CBDT-notified Cost Inflation Index (CII) for various years, i.e. Indexation Chart/ Table, Capital Gains Index/ Chart/ Table, Cost Inflation Index/ Chart/ Table:
|SI. No.||Financial Year (FY)||Income Tax Notification||Cost Inflation Index (CII)|
New Cost Inflation Index (CII) for FY 2023-24/ AY 2024-25 notified by CBDT
CBDT Income Tax Notification 21/2023 dated 10/04/2023: New Cost Inflation Index (CII) for FY 2023-24/ AY 2024-25 at 348
CBDT Income Tax Notification 39/2023 dated 12/06/2023: New Cost Inflation Index (CII) for FY 2023-24/ AY 2024-25 at 348
Relevance of Cost Inflation Index (CII)/ Capital Gain Index?
Notably, the CII applies only to long-term capital gains, i.e., gains from the sale of long-term capital assets. To calculate taxable capital gains on short-term capital assets/gains, deduct the acquisition/improvement cost from the sale price. In the case of the transfer of a long-term capital asset, however, capital gains are determined by subtracting the indexed cost of acquisition/improvement from the sale consideration.
The indexed cost of acquisition/improvement is crucial in calculating long-term capital gains because it offers a more precise representation of the asset’s cost. The CII offers a more precise estimation of an asset’s cost by taking into account how inflation affects the purchasing power of money. The Central Government therefore updates the CII annually in line with the rate of inflation. The CII is an important factor to take into account when determining the amount of tax payable on the sale of a long-term capital asset. By taking the effects of inflation into account, the CII provides a more precise measurement of the cost of an asset, leading to a more precise calculation of capital gains.
The term ‘Cost Inflation Index/Capital Gain Index’ refers to the Central Government’s notification of the average increase in the ‘consumer price | [

Boogie Nights meets The Wrestler in Marshall Axani’s The Cannon. Although those are some fairly daunting examples to follow, The Cannon – for the most part – does a decent job of keeping up.
Canadian Film Fest
In The Go-Getters, Jeremy LaLonde’s first foray into the twisted genre of dark comedies, audiences are convinced that misery really does love company; especially in the metropolis of Toronto.
Certain topics pertaining to sex and intimacy aren’t really taboo anymore. We’ve had an influx of orgy comedies (A Good Old Fashioned Orgy, How to Plan an Orgy in a Small Town), and filmmakers have also captured stripped-down dating culture in the current digital age (Jackie Boy, as well as with glossier mainstream movies). Because of these advancements in storytelling, Jon E. Cohen’s underwhelming feature film debut A Swingers Weekend feels a few years too late.
As a film critic, you try your hardest not to be jaded. However, I find myself struggling not to make blasé comments about Black Fawn Films’ latest horror movie The Heretics.
Making a movie like Modern Classic requires film experience, and I’m not talking about knowing how to assemble a shot list. It’s a taxing process of compromises that pulls you through the ringer while you remain hopeful and eager. Modern Classic, a flippant film about this love/hate relationship, uses catharsis and dry humour to exhale.
Justin McConnell is a filmmaker who uses tension marvellously, usually either channeled through shadowy environments or visceral fears. In his latest film Broken Mile, he breaks personal ground by using time to intensely disorient his audience.
Ken Finkleman (of CBC’s cult hit The Newsroom) wryly lampoons streamlined success in #AnAmericanDream.
Budding filmmaker Andy King has been in hot water with former Toronto councillor Doug Ford, the brother of late mayor Rob Ford who was caught up in worldwide controversy involving drug use caught on tape. The plot of King’s feature Filth City is centred around a belligerent, frantic mayor searching for a video that captures his illicit drug binging at a house party – you can see why Doug is a little mad.
At first glance, Across the Line is a common film that exposes a type of impressionable racial discrimination filmmakers have acknowledged before. This time, the devastation hits close to home (Nova Scotia) and allows a breakout director to handle the heavy material in a different way that doesn’t dance around the aftermath.
In the spirit of Harv Glazer’s Rubik’s Cube documentary 20 Moves, I really tried to sum up my opinion about the film in 20 words – it didn’t work. But, hey, I don’t mind elaborating on the aptitude of Glazer’s satisfying work. | [

Hungary agriculture product is a mixture of staple crops, famous specialty things like wine and livestock product, and basic stock. Hungary's most significant crops embrace corn, wheat, sugar beets, barley, potatoes, and flower seeds. Hungary additionally has vital forestry resources, though poor forestry management reduced Hungary's forestry resources beneath communism. The enlargement of agriculture, a high rate of exploitation, and inadequate re-planting of trees contributed to a big decline within the amount following World War II.
According to the analysis, ‘Hungary Agriculture Market Trends, Statistics, Growth, and Forecasts’ The Hungary government has been supporting the agriculture manufacturing with a digit of policies, demanding to stabilise the output and seeking ways to confirm the division is growing healthily and sustainably. The Hungary federal government has been very much compassionate of agriculture for years, and there’s broad political consent as to the prerequisite for land, labour and tax reform to comfort the sector reach its potential. Due to compassionate policies, the agriculture sector’s performance has been rising steady in recent years. Hungary keeps its primary rank within the world in terms of farming output, manufacturing bulky quantities of rice, wheat, cotton, meat, poultry, eggs and fishery product. The new strategy involves a lot of efforts to confirm the resource of key farm merchandise, promoting the supply-side structural reform and, further notably, increasing environmental protection moreover as pollution prevention and waste treatment. Despite the speedy development of Hungary’s agriculture sector, complications emerge in respect to a spread of aspects, as well as the reduction productive land, the deteriorating ecological rank of surroundings owing to the heavyweight use of fertilisers and pesticides, and also the issue of food security. There’s in additional lot of room to rise in terms of accelerating the utilization of machinery and advanced technologies within the agriculture sector. The country has produced efforts to integrate new agricultural technologies to boost the sector’s proficiency and increase land productivity. The high expenses and low profits of agricultural production are the foremost internal inhibitors of Hungary’s agriculture sector. They are in addition the prime issue proscribing the expansion of farmers’ income and resulting inreduction of the labour force in agriculture.
The government has adopted a quantity of multi-year policies, like a pledge to double farmer incomes and become self-reliant in pulses over an unspecified short-range amount. However, reform must to go a lot of deeper, exclusively considering the actual fact that within the years to 2050, agriculture is estimated to produce livelihoods for concerning half the rural population, despite in progress urbanisation within the country. The Hungary government has for years actively supported the agriculture sector through mechanisms like fertiliser subsidies, and relaxed providing conditions, amongst others, consenting farmers to consume a reasonable estimation of their revenues and design for the consequent agricultural season consequently. Through a network of public foundations and varied programmes and schemes, Hungary’s federal and regional authorities are trying to shield agricultural producers and boost production. Thus, it is predicted that the Hungary Agriculture Market will increase within near future.

PROGRAMS & SERVICES
We invest in the human capital of our entrepreneurs by providing a world-class education that is accessible to all.
Our participants most commonly describe our education workshops as hands-on, creative, collaborative, and interactive. Our teachers are subject-matter experts with start-up and small businesses experience. They utilize improvisational comedy, design thinking, and other experiential-learning methodologies to teach topics crucial to starting, operating, and growing a business.
We create communities around each of the topics we cover, enabling our participants to problem-solve in teams and build support networks that extend beyond our program. In addition to taking a collaborative approach, an iterative process is part of every workshop, teaching our entrepreneurs prototype and rebuild their solutions constantly.
Leveraging the social capital of the Washington D.C. community, participants connect and refine their skills through the Talent Exchange.
The Talent Exchange is our take on the Kiva Method, a facilitation technique developed by the indigenous people of Southwest Texas. This method is an interactive and practical process that leverages participant experience to exchange knowledge and create peer-to-peer support networks. In these sessions, we will match participants with coaches (skill-based support) and advisors (industry experts).
Street Pitch transforms the traditional pitch competition by mobilizing a collective of organizations to democratize who is involved, what they win, and how they are showcased. At Street Pitch, the top founders are identified via peer-selection and invited to pitch their companies to a panel of judges, investors, community supporters, and the audience.
Importantly, through a nationwide network of over 100+ partners, the showcase is live-streamed to the world—allowing viewers to vote with their money by directly investing in their favorite entrepreneur through crowdfunding campaigns, product purchases, and in-kind contributions.
We leverage Obama-era legislation and viral community amplification to enable millions of unaccredited individuals to invest via Facebook-live and at a live event. For most, this is their first exposure to the investment world. Street Pitch replaces the “friends and family” round of capital, which is notably harder to attain for entrepreneurs of color, immigrants, and low-income. | [

An electrochemical nucleic acid biosensor based on label-free DNA detection method was prepared for the first time by using electropolymerized poly(l-glutamic acid)-modified pencil graphite electrode (PGA/PGE) for detection of hepatitis C virus genotype 1a (HCV1a). Inosine-substituted 20-mer probes related to the HCV1a were immobilized onto PGA/PGE surface by covalent linking with the formation of amide bonds. Square wave voltammetry (SWV) was used to monitor the oxidation signal of guanine in the hybridization events, which gave an oxidation peak at +1.05 V. An increase in the oxidation signal of guanine was showed by hybridization of the probe with the complementary DNA. Noncomplementary oligonucleotides were also used to investigate the selectivity of the biosensor. The proposed nucleic acid biosensor was linear in the range of 50 nM to 1.0 mu M, exhibiting a limit of detection of 40.6 nM. Finally, single-stranded synthetic PCR product analogues of HCV1a were performed in optimal condition. This PGA-modified nucleic acid sensor is cost-effective and disposable, and besides, it has superior electrocatalytic effect on the oxidation of guanine. | [

Deep-sea mining means long — and expensive — voyages to the central Pacific, with technology still being tested. However, the shallow waters on the continental shelf are more attractive to potential miners. Glittering in the shallow waters are gems like diamonds, along with phosphorites, metallic minerals like gold and tin, and polymetallic nodules—small rocks containing cobalt, nickel, manganese, and copper.
A recent study mapped mineral resources off the coasts of every continent except Antarctica, where mining is prohibited. Some shallow water mining operations have been in place for decades. In Namibian waters, companies have been mining for diamonds since 2002. Dredging tin off the coast of Indonesia is the largest offshore mineral mining operation in the world. Unlike deep-sea miners looking for polymetallic nodules at depths exceeding 3,500 metres, a Swedish company plans to test mines in the sea separating Sweden and Finland – at depths of less than 150 metres. Most of the shallow water’s mineral resources remain untapped, but for how long?
The study argues that there is virtually no discussion of the effects of shallow water mining. Mining can affect ecosystems in the seafloor and water column with recovery taking years to decades. While shallow water ecosystems recover faster than deep sea communities, mining impacts are still significant in coastal areas. Mining can remove seafloor habitats, potentially causing local extinctions, and sediment plumes can smother marine organisms and affect water quality. Mining operations in shallow seas risk impacting local populations, either through infrastructure on land or through negative impacts on the marine ecosystems on which they depend.
Coastal environments are already burdened by the cumulative impact of climate change and various industries. Coastal mining is another industrial layer with significant knowledge gaps. Shallow water mining is also what the study authors call a “regulatory gray area.” While the work is still in progress, international law – the law of mining – applies to deep-sea mining. However, mining in shallow seas depends on states for regulation and not all countries have strong environmental laws. The study concludes that shallow sea mining is not a low-risk panacea for meeting society’s demand for minerals.

Science and technology in my mind are only different in natures but not in purposes. Science and technology are both fields that strive to advance human civilizations. Sometimes, technology depends on science to advance, and other times science depends on technology to explore and broaden its missions. Therefore, I think when we take a look into science, we may have take a very first glimpse into the progress of making technology. Personally, I think it’s like a tenacious circle of exploration.
In this article, I like to touch on string theory. Yes, it’s science, but string theory may one day encourage many brilliant minds into creating the kinds of technology that will be out of this world. I’m afraid that day may not be very close at all, because string theory is the theory that is delving into stuffs that are so closely resemble to science fiction. Even some physicists may even consider string theory philosophically, but the mathematics behind string theory are too elegant — elegant enough to convince many physicists that they’re on the right path to discover a unified theory or something much grander.
String theory holds a promise to a future where it can develop into something that may be able to explain how gravity works at the level of quantum mechanics. For centuries, Isaac Newton’s explanation on how gravity worked was the source for everything gravity, but Albert Einstein came along with his general theory of relativity (1916) which changed what we knew about gravity. Unfortunately, Einstein’s theory on gravity cannot explain how things work at the level of quantum mechanics. At such a level, things are extremely small, beyond the eyes can see and touch. Many scientists know the stuffs that make up the atoms are responsible for the stuffs that make up the universe itself. Which means it could be that everything might have been under the influence of one single force. This single force might mask itself as gravity when we’re talking about objects that are large as the size of the planets and golf balls and so on, but it might mask itself as other forces that responsible for holding the smaller stuffs together such as electron and neutron and proton and so on. String theory is so versatile in mathematics that it holds promise of unifying Einstein’s gravity with the forces that work at the quantum mechanics level.
So why is that important? To tell the truth, I’m no expert at all in physics, but from what I understand so far — rather flaky but noble, I think as string theorists attempt to unify the forces together, they come upon on the scenario where string theory itself gives hint to a universe with more than four dimensions. In fact, string theory suggests a universe with 11 dimensions — three regular ones (up/down, left/right, back/forth) plus time equate to four dimensions that we know so well, add that to seven more extra dimensions and string theory becomes perfect in term of mathematics. As physicists suggest, the more dimensions we can interact with, the more we can do. Imagine you are living inside a two dimensional movie screen, but when you step out from the movie screen into the three/four dimensional world, you can do a lot more! For an example, you can explore the extra dimensions — which leads you to drinking coffee in a Starbucks on some street and not inside a movie screen. Will that make you a human? What if you travel into the fifth and the sixth dimensions and so on, what will that make you? You get the gist!
To explore the extra dimensions that string theory suggests, it will take more than science fiction type of technology for us to do so. For now, we are content with such bizarre but intrigue possibilities. String theory isn’t done yet, because it has more. String theory suggests something even more outlandish such as there may be many parallel worlds out there. OK, I think I have to read more on this before I can explain to you, but if you don’t want to wait on me, you can check out the fantastic explanation on string theory in details from the film clips that I’ve found on YouTube right after the break.

My daughter sent a few pics of Xara laying in her lap playing with her own feet. I have came to the conclusion this puppy is a midget!! She's sooooo small at 5 weeks now. Andria said she is only about 5 or 6 inches tall! I think I am getting a speckled chihuahua not a GSP
These aren't the best pics since they were with her cell phone, but here is Xara at 5 weeks:
I must have puppyitis, because mine's just 16 weeks, and I'm already drooling over yours. She's a darling.
She is an itty bitty little thing, but she may surprise you and end up very normal sized. Be prepared though - the runt is always the most tenacious and tough little bugger in the group. I have a special place in my heart for the little ones because they just don't take no for an answer.
She is so cute,Do you have a puppy book started yet? I do one for each puppy and put all their records in it,any ribbons or vet papers micro chip info.That way i can always find it.The count down is on for her to be at her new home best of luck (been far east) | [

As people age, many are bothered by cataracts, a clouding of the lens that results in symptoms including blurred vision, glare from lights, trouble seeing in dim light and poor contrast. Cataracts can make it more difficult to drive safely, participate in hobbies, perform household activities, and live independently.
The development of cataracts is a normal part of the aging process, affecting everyone to different degrees in the later phases of life. However, cataracts can also occur in younger patients related to genetic factors or other health conditions such as diabetes.
The only treatment for visually significant cataracts is removal with surgery. Cataracts are most common cause of blindness in the world, where not all have easy access to quality surgical care or treatment. While traditional cataract surgery is performed with a blade, Wang Vision Institute was the first center in the state to perform laser cataract surgery.
The laser cataract system utilizes an advanced, ultra-short-pulsed femtosecond laser to improve the precision of cataract surgery. The surgeon uses the laser to customize the surgery to the exact specifications of each individual patient, and a computerized laser imaging system guides the laser beam. Real-time, high-resolution images of the eye are projected onto a computer screen, which allows the surgeon to perform the surgery and laser astigmatism correction with precision that far surpasses that of a traditional manual blade.
Wang Vision Institute was among the first nationally to implant several of these advanced presbyopic lenses, sometimes referred to as the "Forever Young Lenses™" as a group because of the improved visual acuity achieved. This new generation of lenses gives patients a wide range of vision and reduces their dependence on glasses for both distance and near sight. For years, traditional cataract surgery has been performed with standard monofocal lenses, which provide focus at only one distance. When these monofocal lenses are used, patients nearly always still need to wear glasses for reading vision, distance vision, or both as these lenses do not provide any focus range. Cataract surgery can now be completed with modern, customized lenses that can correct for vision more completely than ever before.
The introduction of the laser for cataract surgery has made surgery less invasive, safer and helped patients to recover quicker. An increasing array of lens types for vision correction has provided patients with the ability to do more with their vision without glasses after surgery. Patients with cataracts now have more options than ever for surgical correction. By choosing a surgeon that offers the full range of technology for cataracts, patients will have the opportunity to not only have their cataracts removed, but also in many cases achieve a significant improvement in vision for distance, near, or both without glasses.
Dr. Ming Wang, Harvard & MIT (MD, magna cum laude); PhD (laser physics), is the CEO of Aier-USA, director of Wang Vision 3D Cataract & LASIK Center, and one of the few laser eye surgeons to hold a doctorate degree in laser physics. He has performed more than 55,000 procedures, including on over 4,000 on doctors. For more information, email email@example.com or go online to wangcataractLASIK.com. | [

How you can Get The best Backup Generator For the Catastrophe & Budget
The best backup power-system for you is defined by how much interaction you want with the system and by how much you’re willing to spend.
This is a decent generator for the price. I think it is a little overated in wattage as I have had it trip a few times while running things well below the rated wattage. It is not as loud as previous generators I have had, which was unexpected. Easy to assemble and easy to transport.
I ordered several generators for Christmas gift to our kids. 3 of the 5 worked well, but the other 2 wouldn’t start or were damaged. Overstocked sent us 2 new ones that worked will. All 5 will start on the first or second pull. They are also very quiet. If you have problems with them, deal with Overstocked not the Co. that provides the product to Overstocked.
Ordered and received in 3 days; put the recommended on in 10W 30 motor oil and started on the first pull. Owner’s manual is great and it has every part # listed in the manual with illustrations. Great job Champion! It’s nice to get a complete owner’s manual when most are very lacking. Generator is fine and it is not loud at all. (And pray tell what generator doesn’t make some noise?) We also have the top end generator starting with "H" the 2000...not much difference in the noise levels. This runs very smooth and doesn’t sound like running lawn mower that needs a new spark plug! LOL...Why would you spend over 1K more for the same red "H" generator is beyond me? We will use this for recreational trips. Thanks Overstock!
This little splitter is perfect. You can tap off a generator plug a run a bunch of items without worry. The primary pigtail is a touch too short, requiring a support to be placed close to the generator so as not to have the weight just hanging.
Delivery was on time, this was the best packed product I have ever received. the assembly was easy, the generator started first time. This was a good experience. The 69 db is great, the unit is very compact, the fold down handles are nice, I bought the one with elec start which is great. I had an old 5000 kw that was so loud it was hard to sleep in the house, if the power goes out again I’m ready. This is a good investment.
Kind of early to give a good review as have only had a week or so but it looks and runs good. Electric start is A +... Doesn’t have an hour meter but at the price mark with all the other features, it’s a good value.
I purchased this generator b/c of the low price and the fact that a friend of mine has this generator already. After the hurricane this past summer, duromax seemed to raise their prices ( probably due to increased demand ) and I couldnt find this generator for under shipped. Luckily I found a sale on here and paid much less than that. The first generator came to me dented ( as mentioned by some of the other buyers around the web ). I contacted and they promtly sent me a replacement that came in new conition. I’ve ran it a few times and it works perfectly so far.
This is my second Champion 4000, it is a great machine for the money. I use it when camping for my RV, charging batteries, running AC, microwave. I leave in the bed of my truck and with the tail gate closed it is quieter and out of reach of potential thieves when it’s off. It is heavy at dry 106 lbs, but that can help keep people from stealing it as it sits in front of my fifth wheel hitch. Has nice anti vibration rubber mounts on the feet and a bar that surrounds the whole unit. Great unit!

“He was a sky god, associated with wind, rain, thunder, and lightning, and was the master of spiritual phenomena, since it was the spirit realm that was signified by the sky and the manifestations of the weather. He was a carrier of justice and judgment, an embodiment of law and the punisher of transgression of the law, accomplished by the hurling of the thunderbolt. He was the personification of creative energy, which constantly spilled out and had an unceasing urge to impregnate, hence his perpetual love affairs.” Edward Edinger, The Eternal Drama: The Inner Meaning of Greek Mythology
In Edinger’s description of Zeus, we see the image of a powerful masculine ruler of the heavens. Although Zeus is still one of many gods, he is both leader and creator of the pantheon. And just as importantly, we see Zeus’ engagements with his wife, Hera, not as his compliment, but as a shadowy cohort. And although Zeus and Hera are said to be married, the relationship seems less relational and more pro-generative. Zeus is much less interested in a relationship with Hera, but rather a preoccupation with the power to endlessly create through the continual love affairs outside of his marriage. In the realm of the gods, we may see these creative urges as saying less about the familial, and more about the archetypal urge towards expansion through creative reproduction, or differentiating and articulating the One through the diversity of the Many.
Edinger’s own words, in which he declares Zeus as he who “…comes closest of all the members of the Pantheon to embodying the whole Self,” we see an obvious bias, still with us today, towards a preference for a more masculine style of consciousness. Hera, on the other hand, as the feminine divine, is somehow a necessary accomplice and more of a saturnine threat of imprisonment that spurs on Zeus’ impulse for freedom. If the stories of the gods are expressions of particular styles of consciousness, we are glimpsing the ways in which Western civilization values the initiatory force of masculine power, while reducing the value of the feminine, as that which induces fear in the masculine, of time-bound constraint, and the threat of limitation. Is then, the masculine impulse a prerequisite for creative action that requires an abandoned shadowy feminine? If so, is this dynamic the springboard from which Western Civilization arose?
We might pause here to remind ourselves when considering ideas about mythology to see them not so much as literal figures representing male and female, or even as ways to understand male and femaleness, but as powers of the psyche whose dynamics take hold of the cultural imagination and live through us, sanctified, although sometimes shadowy collective influences. As dynamics, these traits persist, even where individuals themselves may more or less incorporate them within a particular lifetime.
“There are long lists of the lovers of Zeus, and by and large they had an unhappy time of it. Hera, personifying the feminine embodiment of the Self, was fiercely opposed to these dalliances, and would often punish Zeus’ lovers. For example, Zeus fell in love with the beautiful Io and then turned her into a white cow so that she could escape Hera’s detection. This ruse failed and Hera set gadflies after her which, stinging, pursued her around the world.”
Edinger, Edward F.. The Eternal Drama: The Inner Meaning of Greek Mythology
Rather than the separate dynamics of masculine and feminine, aren’t we though, seeing a syzygy within the relationship between Zeus and Hera? And, in what ways do these dynamics reassemble within our own modes of modern day consciousness? Although there’s no denying that the archetypes play out between actual men and women, and that men and women are afforded different degrees of power by virtue of their physical nature and social-political norms, can we also see the ways in which all of us have inherited a portion of Zeus’ quest for power, and Hera’s jealous ploys to address or balance the excess? For if as Jung states, the gods have become diseases, surely this syzygy is one of them! The more a Zeus-like excess threatens to destroy the world as we know it, the more outrageous the response of Hera’s house-holding economics becomes.
Where Edinger sees Zeus as the bold exhort of creativity, bringing the endless gifts of light and expanding consciousness, perhaps through the shadowy side of that light we see an insatiable desire for power accompanied by a complete disregard for consequences, desperately in need of Hera’s restraint. Does he then, not attempt to appease her with the riches of the household and all the distraction and substitution for feminine creativity it might contain?

Edouard Vuillard Galleries
Jean-Edouard Vuillard, the son of a retired captain, spent his youth at Cuiseaux (Saone-et-Loire); in 1878 his family moved to Paris in modest circumstances. After his father\'s death, in 1884, Vuillard received a scholarship to continue his education. In the Lycee Condorcet Vuillard met Ker Xavier Roussel (also a future painter and Vuillard\'s future brother in law), Maurice Denis, musician Pierre Hermant, writer Pierre Veber and Lugne-Poe. On Roussel\'s advice he refused a military career and entered the Ecole des Beaux-Arts, where he met Pierre Bonnard.
In 1885, Vuillard left the Lycee Condorcet and joined his closest friend Roussel at the studio of painter Diogene Maillart. There, Roussel and Vuillard received the rudiments of artistic training.

Marguerite Gerard (28 January 1761 in Grasse - 18 May 1837 in Paris) was a French painter and etcher. She was the daughter of Marie Gilette and perfumer Claude Gerard. At 8 years-old she became the sister-in-law of Jean-Honore Fragonard, and when she was 14 she became his pupil, and she often worked with him. She was also the aunt of the artist Alexandre-Évariste Fragonard.bouillon
Pierre Bouillon (1776 - October 15, 1831) was a French painter and engraver. Born at Thiviers, he studied with the Academie-trained history painter Nicolas-Andre Monsiau. He was awarded the grand prize of the Institut de France in July, 1797. His drawing of Laocoön and His Sons was the basis of Charles Clement Bervic's celebrated print of the statueAMBERGER, Christoph
German Painter, ca.1500-1562
German painter and draughtsman. His family came from the Upper Palatinate. He served his apprenticeship in Augsburg, probably with Leonhard Beck, whose daughter Barbara he married. He became a master on 15 May 1530 but rarely signed his work. He was in northern Italy and Venice c. 1525-7. His full-length pendant portraits of a husband and wife (both 1525; Vienna, Ksthist. Mus.) show Venetian influence, and the portrait of Anton Welser (1527; priv. col., see 1980 exh. cat., p. 98) is in the Italian style. According to Sandrart, during the Imperial Diet of 1530 in Augsburg Amberger painted a portrait of Emperor Charles V to the Emperor's satisfaction, but the surviving work (Berlin, Gem?ldegal.) dates from 1532, based on the age given. In the decades that followed, Amberger was the favourite portrait painter of ambitious merchant families, such as the Fugger, who belonged to guilds but were connected with the nobility by family or marriage ties. | [

Maserati MC20 - New Era of Racing DNA
Maserati enters the new Era with MC20, the new super sports car that combines performance, sportiness and luxury in the unique Maserati style.
The new MC20 (MC for Maserati Corse and 20 for 2020, the year of its world première and the start of the Brand’s new Era) is the Maserati everyone was waiting for. It is a car with incredible aerodynamic efficiency, which conceals a sporty soul, with the new Nettuno engine, a 630 horsepower V6 with torque of 730 Nm that delivers 0-100 km/h acceleration in under 2,9 seconds and a top speed over 325 km an hour. An engine that signals Maserati’s return to producing its own power units after a hiatus of more than 20 years.
The MC20 is an extremely lightweight car under 1,500 kg (kerb weight), and thanks to its power output of 630 hp it comes out best in class in weight/power ratio, at just 2.33 kg/hp. This record is achieved through the use of choice quality materials, exploiting all the potentials of carbon fibre without any sacrifices with regard to comfort.
The Virtual Vehicle Dynamics Development system, which includes the use of one of the world’s most advanced dynamic simulators, was developed in-house by the Maserati Innovation Lab and is based on a complex mathematical model called Virtual Car. This method allowed performance of 97% of dynamic tests, optimising development times. The car was then fine-tuned in the best Maserati tradition with exhaustive track and road test-driving sessions in the most widely varying conditions of use.
The guiding theme of the MC20’S design was the Brand’s historic identity, with all the elegance, performance and comfort integral to its genetic make-up. The focus on performance led to the conception of a car with a distinct personality, with unmistakable forms that render it unique.
The butterfly doors are not only stunningly beautiful but also functional, as they improve the car’s ergonomics and enable optimal access to and from the cabin.
Once inside the cabin, the driver is always central, and nothing must distract them from the sporting driving experience. Every component has a purpose, and is completely driver-oriented. Simple forms, very few sharp edges and minimal distractions.
Both visually and conceptually, there are strong references to the MC12, the car that marked Maserati’s racing comeback in 2004. In the same way as its predecessor, MC20, with its explicitly racing soul clear from its name alone, announces the intention to return to the world of racing. | [

Oli and Gas Explorations via Satellite Remote Sensing Techniques for AL_Nasiriya
This study investigates data set as satellite images of type multispectral Landsat-7, which are observed for AL_Nasiriya city, it is located in southern of Iraq, and situated along the banks of the Euphrates River. These raw data are thermal bands of satellite images, they are taken as thermal images. These images are processed and examined using ENVI 5.3 program. Consequently, the emitted Hydrocarbon is extracted, and the black body algorithm is employed. As well as, the raster calculations are performed using ArcGIS, where gas and oil features are sorted. The results are estimate and determine the oil and gas fields in the city. This study uncovers, and estimates several unexplored oil and gas fields. Whereas, the real oil and gas exploration is high costly regarding to actual existed ones in proportional to human and equipment. For future, it is intended to perform domain oil and gas exploration in order to compare between the presented results of this study with the actual existed ones. | [

The year 2024 is just around the corner, and with a new year typically comes new priorities. However, some things, like digital government, are here to stay. Improving the Citizen Experience will continue to be a top priority both now and, in the future, as the modern world emphasizes the importance of personalized services that provide agility, accountability, transparency, equity, efficiency, adaptability.
Prioritizing Citizen Experience
Data analytics played a pivotal role in state, local, and education (SLED) governments’ response to the COVID-19 pandemic, and the emphasis on the importance of data has only continued to magnify over the last couple of years. Data analytics and related technology tools provide a host of benefits ranging from real-time data analysis, increased transparency and accountability, streamlined citizen facing services, better decision making and savings in both costs and time.
As the demand for trustworthy visual data collection and advanced technologies to support strategic decision-making continues to rise, geospatial intelligence plays a vital role in delivering essential military and environmental insights to the intelligence community. Recently at the GEOINT Conference in St. Louis, leaders from several intelligence agencies shed light on the future of geospatial intelligence (GEOINT) and its relationship with emerging technologies.
For the second year in a row, Gartner named IBM a Leader in Gartner Magic Quadrant for 2021 Cloud Database Management Systems based on its Ability to Execute and Completeness of Vision. With emergence of a single cloud DBMS market, We believe our portfolio of feature-rich, enterprise-tested offerings, bold acquisitions, and partnerships enable our clients to address the unique needs of their business, respond to the growing volume, velocity and variety of today’s data and drive more accurate data driven decisions.
The COVID-19 pandemic has spurned greater demand for health information technology (IT) by demonstrating the importance of having robust medical research, health surveillance and healthcare systems capable of rapidly responding to new and developing situations, something which requires strong IT investment in big data, cybersecurity and cloud. In addition, both the pandemic and emerging technologies have led to numerous changes within the healthcare industry, such as telehealth expansion and increased use of wearables, which necessitate robust health IT solutions.
Any federal IT pro can tell you that analyzing log files is something they’ve been doing for years. That said, as applications get more complex, performance becomes more important and security issues increase. Log analytics are fast becoming a critical component of an agency’s monitoring and management infrastructure.
So much data, so little time. Disparate sources such as sensors, machines, geo-location devices, social feeds, server and security system logs, and more, are generating terabytes of data at unfathomable speeds. Getting any kind of real-time insight and, we dare you to dream, acting on that data as it flows in, is not an easy feat for resource-constrained government agencies.
Big Data Month: New eBook Sheds Light on How Government is Overcoming Persistent Big Data Challenges
There are many opportunities in the public sector for data science and data analytics, yet, almost as many challenges. When we kicked off Big Data Month at DLT, we asked our Chief Data Scientist, Sherry Bennett, for her insights. What became clear is that the obstacles to big data success are universal to both the public and private sector: “…everybody…is grappling with the same thing.
At DLT, July is Big Data Month, where we will be highlighting all things big data in the public sector. To kick off Big Data Month, we sat down with DLT Chief Data Scientist Sherry Bennett to get her insights into what is going on the world of public sector data and analytics:

In one of its first acts as a political organization, "The Society for Other Politics" on Feb. 16 gathered the necessary amount of signatures to initiate the process of amending the pension law. The organization managed to gather more than 3,000 signatures over the course of three days. The large turnout is seen as a huge success for the organization, which claims it could have gotten far more if the campaign had lasted just a few more days. "The Society for Other Politics" is a political organization founded by former Regional Affairs Minister Aigars Stokenbergs and slated to one day become a full blown left-wing political party.
Former detainees of the KGB headquarters in Riga have thrown their support behind a Riga City Council proposal to turn the site into a museum. The building, located on Brivibas Street in the center of the city, is currently being used as a police station. During Soviet times, the building became famous as a site for the torture and execution of dissidents. A number of Russian businessmen have reportedly been considering the idea of buying the premises, a move that nationalist politicians and members of the Latvian Officers Association hope to block by installing an exhibition from the Occupation Museum on the site.
The Zemgale regional court sentenced Vladimirs Rubanuks, former deputy warden of the Jekabpils jail, to seven years in prison for extorting a bribe. Rubanuks pled guilty to the charges, throwing himself on the mercy of the court. The defendant was arrested on May 8, 2007, after being caught demanding a 10,000 lat bribe from an inmate in return for his help in securing a favorable ruling in an early release hearing. Rubanuks was also convicted of threatening to take action to ensure that the inmate would not be released if he did not pay the deputy warden.
As was widely expected, the government approved the draft law endorsing the Treaty of Lisbon. The bill will now be sent to Parliament to be ratified, which would make Latvia the sixth EU member state's after Hungary, Slovenia, Malta, Romania and France's to approve the document. The treaty of Lisbon was meant to replace the failed EU Constitutional Treaty, which was shot down by referendum in France and the Netherlands. The new treaty has been accused by some European politicians of being too similar to the constitution, changing only the names but keeping all of the same basic principles intact. It is expected to take effect in 2009.
A Lithuanian man was arrested in Ventspils on Feb. 18 when State Revenue Service officers found a kilogram of cocaine hidden in his truck. Amounting to the biggest drug bust so far this year, the street value of the drugs is estimated to be 45 to 55 thousand lats (64,000's 71,000 euros). The cocaine was reportedly hidden in a secret compartment in the man's truck, hidden inside a box bearing a "Toyota" label. Officials believe that the man was planning to smuggle the drugs into Norway. | [

Film: Idukki Gold
Direction: Aashiq Abu
Cast: Maniyanpillai Raju, Prathap Pothen, Raveendran, Vijayaraghavan, Babu Antony
Few other things command as much influence on the Malayalis psyche as nostalgia. Right from our national festival which positions the apparent hopelessness of the present against a perfect past to our craze for the antiques which we once contemptuously threw out, seem to be markers of this.
Some of our new-age film-makers work this to their favour by throwing in a reference or two to a classic film or dialogue which receives wild cheers from the crowd. But, of late, at least some of these attempts which ended up as mere gimmickry have been frowned upon by the audience. Aashiq Abu and his writers Shyam Pushkaran and Dileesh Nair seem to have realised this as their latest work Idukki Gold, which has a nostalgic theme, uses such references judiciously. And, as a safety measure, they have made the characters themselves poke fun at the ‘nostalgia disease.’ The film is about the coming together of five friends after 35 years and their trip to the Idukki high ranges to rediscover the magic of their school days. The gang comprises Michael, an NRI (Prathap Pothen); planter Madan (Maniyanpillai Raju); government employee and Left activist Raman (Vijayaraghavan); karate expert-turned-restaurant-owner Antony (Babu Antony); and photographer Ravi (Raveendran).
Based on Santhosh Echikkanam’s short story of the same name, Idukki Gold is a fun ride for the initial part. Narrated in an episodic fashion, it switches between their school days and the present which includes tracking each of the friends down and planning the trip. The 70s are brought alive in warm colour tones, long sideburns, and a triple drum-dominated background score.
The comic timing of Raju and Raveendran stands out in the shorter first half which is well paced. The humour is fresh and some of the episodes such as the one on ‘plastic’ have been executed well. Though the five young actors who play them during their school days deliver strong performances, the lack of similarity with their present look gives some amount of confusion to the audience.
In the second half, the lack of a coherent story is evident as the jokes run out of stock and the narrative progresses just on the strength of some exquisite shots of the misty high ranges and a trippy stoner sequence by Shyju Khalid. Now, there is something clearly wrong if all you have got to talk about the vital part of a film is the cinematography.
The script starts to unravel towards the end with bizarre elements such as an unnecessary elephant attack which does not add much but rather disrupts the film’s general flow.
The so-called surprise element towards the climax, filmed amidst a garden of Idukki Gold, does not leave one ‘high.’ Syrupy statements on friendship further add to the pain.
For a film which carries the name of a popular variety of marijuana, there is ample amounts of smoke and drinks to get overtime wages for the ‘smoking is dangerous’ announcements. The only sad part is that some of the smoke seems to have been used to fill the gaps in the script too.
The ’70s are brought alive in warm colour tones and the humour is fresh. | [

Long time audiophile headphone maker HiFiMAN recently announced they will be taking a leap into wireless connectivity with the release of a bluetooth-enabled version of their popular Ananda headphone.
The wireless ‘phone takes full advantage of the planar magnetic driver technology that helped establish HiFiMAN in the market, but includes wireless bluetooth built right into the same form factor. Tech specs for the headphone boast rates of 24/96 via high resolution options on that front, and 24/192 when digitally wired with a USB-C cable. BT options include SBC (Subband Codec), LHDC (Low Latency and High Definition Audio Codec), aptX HD – some of the newest alternatives to come to market. Playback time from the internal battery is rated at 13.5 hours. The new wireless Ananda will retail for $1,199 when it becomes available in late March.
As an added bonus, HiFiMAN also is prepping the release of a bluetooth speaker for the masses. Retailing for $599, the BA1000 will pack most of the same bleeding edge wireless tech as the Ananda (up to 24/96 wirelessly). The internal amplifier clocks in at 30 watts and a rated frequency response down to 65Hz. The internal battery boasts 72 hours of continuous playback on single charge.
The rising tide of wireless tech is slowing bleeding into the usually niche hobby of personal audio, and its invasion into the product line was of course, inevitable. Its inclusion here seems right at home, attached to a solid performing headphone with little aesthetic compromise or severe changes to appeal to the general consumer market. It’s easy to assume this won’t be the last movement off-center for hardwire options we see targeted at hifi, interesting times ahead!

Pokemon Go is ruling the gaming world currently, as all the fans have switched to their mobile phones for the ultimate fun of catching their favorite Pokemons and enjoying the new events coming out. However, it is not just a delightful experience for the fans, as the developer Niantic is also bagging huge money with the game. Especially, with the last Halloween event which managed to earn $200 million for the makers.
As the craze of the game is increasing, we suspect that it will even go further in terms of the money the show will make. We do know that the game will continue bringing new events, and that will eventually attract more people to the game. So, it would be interesting to see what will be the next event. But as of now, the chief marketing officer Mike Quigley has confirmed that the even generated $200 million, and also mentioned there will be more events coming out soon.
Quigley mentioned that the game is something which will be around for years, and also said that they are happy with the progress they have made so far. Well, it is justified as the game has made a huge amount in an event which lasted for a couple of week approximately.
The game will also be adding 100 second generations Pokemons to the game in the upcoming weeks, so it confirms that the game will continue to grow. Hence, do not listen to those who are saying that it was a summer craze which has started dying slowly. It is still growing strong, and it is a good sign for fans! | [

Patches of matter in the universe seem to be moving at very high speeds and in a uniform direction that can't be explained by any of the known gravitational forces in the observable universe. Astronomers are calling the phenomenon "dark flow."
The key to this is not the description of the flow or how it was found, but this:
The stuff that's pulling this matter must be outside the observable universe, researchers conclude.
When scientists talk about the observable universe, they don't just mean as far out as the eye, or even the most powerful telescope, can see. In fact there's a fundamental limit to how much of the universe we could ever observe, no matter how advanced our visual instruments. The universe is thought to have formed about 13.7 billion years ago. So even if light started travelling toward us immediately after the Big Bang, the farthest it could ever get is 13.7 billion light-years in distance. There may be parts of the universe that are farther away (we can't know how big the whole universe is), but we can't see farther than light could travel over the entire age of the universe.
This is literally earth-shattering, for one particular reason.
The inflationary theory suggests that our observable universe is only one infinitesimal part of the larger whole: we exist essentially in a bubble universe within the larger multiverse.
Foundational to this theory is an assumption I have never liked: that we can never exchange information or actually directly observe anything about those areas beyond the observable universe. Sure, we can hypothesize, but we can never even really theorize in a scientific sense, because real theories have to be falsifiable. That means that a real theory has to include a mechanism for proving it's not true. If you don't have any way to test it, it's a conjecture or a hypothesis, but not a theory.
This possibility that we can see the indirect impact of a force external to the observable universe plays hell with that idea.
If we can deduce that a flow of dark matter is being caused by forces external to the known universe, we will eventually begin to be able to deduce the parameters of that force--and then we will have what we have long been told we could never have: direct, testable information about a part of the universe apparently separated from us by the light-speed barrier.
And--this is the critical piece--if we can get one piece of information from there, there is no effective barrier to getting other descriptive information from that region, even if only by finding other more subtle impacts of that external region.
In other words, if this proves out, it is a breakthrough of momentous proportions, because it holds out the hope that the light-speed barrier is not--at least for the purposes of passing information--an ultimate barrier.
Warp Seven in that direction, Mr. Data. Let's find out what's out there. | [

Two paintings of the same guy. What's up with that? As it turns out, I needed to do a painting demo during a watercolor workshop. I had the top one started but it was too far along to use for the demo. So I drew up another one to use for the workshop. They were both off to a good start, so I just ended up painting on both of them simultaneously. | [

After rubbing amber with fur, he noticed the fur attracted dust Electricity (static or current) is a result of the quantity charge. static electricity and the dirt it attracts can cause data loss in a computer. In such a case, electrons are then conducted through the polymer, and resistivity values less than 10 8 ohms/sq and often as low as. This leads to the important concept in electrostatics, the “electric field” Christopher Mizzi and Alex Lin, doctoral students in Marks’s laboratory, were co-first authors of the paper.

Alteratives are blood cleansing, and help the body to improve metabolic processes and thus work more efficiently absorbing nutrients, and removing wastes. Examples of herbs include garlic, burdock, echinacea, dandelion, turmeric, holy basil, and yellow dock, plantain, and red clover. Alterative herbs are best to be taken in small doses over a longer period of time, resulting in whole body wellness of organs and systems.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The number of U.S. job openings fell in July, government data showed on Tuesday in a troubling sign for a labor market that is struggling to create jobs.
Job openings - a measure of labor demand - dropped to 3.66 million from 3.72 million in June, the Labor Department said in its monthly Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey.
The hiring rate, however, was steady at 3.2 percent in July.
U.S. employers have slowed hiring since the first three months of the year, raising pressure on the Federal Reserve and on President Barack Obama, who is running for reelection in November.
In July, the drop in job openings was spread across manufacturing, health care and business services. Job openings increased in the public sector.
Worries of deep government spending cuts and higher taxes scheduled to kick in at the start of 2013 and Europe’s ongoing debt crisis might be making companies hesitant to take on workers.
However, in a more upbeat sign for the labor market, layoffs in July fell by 207,000 to 1.55 million.
The number of workers quitting their jobs, a gauge of confidence in the labor market, was 2.16 million, marginally higher than the 2.13 million quits registered in June.

It’s Cookie Exchange time!!
Well, almost. Our festivities are scheduled for this Saturday, and I’ve gathered so many recipes in preparation over the past few weeks. I’ve had a really hard time narrowing down what I really and truly want to contribute. I kept coming back to this recipe from Betty Crocker.
I was completely sold on the edible ornament idea, and I think they turned out great! Let me give you a few tips that are not mentioned anywhere in the Betty Crocker instructions. Don’t get me wrong, this a great recipe that will point you in the right direction. I just think they could have elaborated a bit more to save us hardworkin’ home bakers a bit of frustration.
- First of all, bake these on parchment. I lightly greased my baking sheet, and they stuck. Must be the molasses, methinks.
- The string (top) hole I punched with a straw, the other slightly larger hole should be made with a bottle cap, or even the large end of a piping tip.
- Said holes will want to close up as the cookies bake. After about 10 minutes of baking time, take them out and re-punch holes. I know, it’s a pain – but look how they turned out! Put them back in 5-10 more minutes until done.
- A standard pretzel stick broken in half makes the perfect size perch.
Wouldn’t these be cute (sans bird perch and hole) decorated as Black-Forest inspired Cuckoo clocks? I think I may try that next, now that I know what I’m doing!
This gingerbread cookie has a strong spicy flavor, and the molasses gives it durability. It is a hard cookie, but delicious and very edible. Use only for one season, as ornaments. They are meant to be eaten, but are strong enough to endure a December on the tree.
Many, many more cookie recipes to come! | [

Since the COVID-19 outbreak, the Brunei government, through the Ministry of Health (MoH) and related government agencies, has been giving daily press conferences so that the public can learn more about the current situation and how the infection is being contained.
This was stated in a press conference yesterday by Minister of Health Dato Seri Setia Dr Haji Mohd Isham bin Haji Jaafar who added, “It is important that a community obeys all the rules that have been set forth.
“It will be difficult for the government if the public does not follow or understand why the government is enforcing these rules and regulations.
“Alhamdulillah, the Ministry of Health and other government agencies are very thankful that through carrying out press conferences such as this, the public is able to understand and follow the rules and regulations.
“So in a way, it helps a lot to flattening the curve.” | [

Kill The Troll
A Buffy Z ‘What If?’ Scenario
by 3D Master (email@example.com)
Author’s Notes: Still hard at work with the next Dana story and the planning stage of the second saga of Buffy Z. I decided to make this little interlude. A what if scenario that has been going through my mind on several occasions. It plays in the fifth season episode Triangle, the one where one of Anya’s victims, who she turned into a troll, escaped confinement and went berserk on Sunnydale. The hammer of a god that later brings Glory to a halt, merely winds Xander, and gives him a few shallow cuts. (Heh, heh, guess why it merely does that!?) Anyway, this starts at that point, and it basically goes, what if Buffy came a minute later.
Xander ran into the Magic Box, seeing Willow and Anya lie on the ground among broken pieces of furniture. The giant troll - pale green skin, red shoulder-length hair, the same color beard, and two horns on either side of his forehead - stood before them.
“No, don’t. Get away from them!” Xander called out with animosity.
The troll turned to look at him, and told him relatively calmly, “I will get away from them, after I kill them.”
“You are not touching these women!” Xander growled in anger, and ran straight at the troll. He jumped and the troll held out his hammer. Xander crashed into it and fell to the floor faking pain, which wasn’t too hard; that hammer was hard.
Olav, the troll, grabbed him by the front of his shirt with his free hand and pulled him up. Xander swung his left fist, putting enough power behind it to snap the troll’s head back, which was quite an accomplishment for a supposedly mere human. The troll got angry, let go of Xander with one hand and smashed him aside with his hammer, sending the young man flying across the room, making him land in a corner. Xander got up again, looking at the thing in anger.
“You wish for more? Admirable,” Olav told him, laughing jovially.
Xander ran at him, hit him across the face, making the troll take a step back for balance. Olav grabbed Xander and smashed the hammer on Xander’s back. Xander felt the impact, and went down to the floor on his stomach. His quickly erected chi shield - lacking the intensity needed to become visible - was the only thing that had kept the god’s weapon from knocking him unconscious, if not break his back and cripple him. The troll kicked Xander past him and then, with a ram from his hammer sent him sliding across the floor until he stopped next to the staircase a few meters away.
Xander for a moment allowed a grim smirk to cross his face, out of sight from the rest. *Man, that hammer should be called Sledge the Destroyer,* Xander thought ironically. *That thing packs a wallop. Keep it together Xand, just keep him busy long enough for Buffy to get here.* He spit out some his blood, and got up. He quickly jumped up onto the stairs and then jumped at the troll, who deflected him easily.
Xander laid there in pain, he really should have used more of his chi. Olav laughed and said, “You fight well, although you are a tiny man.” Olav pulled Xander up and slung his arm around his shoulder. “I shall reward you,” he told him with a smile in his voice. Gesturing at the two girls, lying on the floor behind the counter, he continued, “Only one of your women shall die, and you shall be the one to choose.”
Willow and anya had barely managed to get in a sitting position. Willow looked at Anya, and asked softly, “Did he just say...?”
As the two girls got up, Olav gestured at them again and said to Xander, “Choose! Anyanka, or the witch. One of your women must die.”
Xander’s eyes were wide in horror. “No | [

Real-time object detection and selection with the LabVIEW program
Keywords:Color and shape detection, Conveyor belt system, Image processing, LabVIEW
Nowadays, the demand for production is increasing due to the increase in the human population. For this reason, different developing technologies are used to meet the required production. In developing technologies, image processing techniques are used to save manpower and time and to minimize possible errors. In this study, image processing techniques were used to detect and select the colors and shapes of the objects coming over the conveyor belt system. Real-time images were preferred in the study. In the implemented system, the selection process was carried out by using the LabVIEW program to define the colors and shapes of the objects. LabVIEW NI- IMAQdx was used to find the colors of the objects. To facilitate the definition of shapes, the images taken from the Vision Assistant module in the LabVIEW program were converted to HSL format, and shape definitions were made using different algorithms. After these processes were done, the servo motors in the conveyor belt system were enabled to communicate with each other with the help of the Arduino program and the selection of the objects was carried out. According to the results obtained, the average accuracy rate for three-dimensional objects was 95.349 %. This rate is considered to be a very high rate for object detection of correct color and shape. | [

Optimizing Climate Control
Climate control is critical in a cannabis greenhouse, as it influences both the quality and quantity of the yield. Accessories that contribute to creating an ideal environment for cannabis growth include thermostats, heaters, and cooling systems. A thermostat will ensure that the greenhouse maintains consistent temperatures, which is crucial for cannabis that requires specific thermal conditions during different stages of growth. Heaters are imperative for colder climates or periods to prevent frost and to extend the growing season, while cooling systems like evaporative coolers will combat heat stress during the hotter months.
Enhancing Light Exposure and Efficiency
Proper lighting is another key factor in maximizing cannabis yield. While natural sunlight is beneficial, the addition of grow lights ensures that plants receive adequate light year-round, regardless of natural light conditions. High-intensity discharge (HID) lights, LED lights, and fluorescent grow lights are popular choices, each with their own benefits. Reflective materials can also be placed on walls and around light sources to distribute light more evenly and reduce waste. Timers for artificial lights are extremely helpful for maintaining a consistent photoperiod, which is necessary to trigger flowering in cannabis plants. Keep learning about the topic by visiting this carefully selected external website. cannabis greenhouse for sale https://www.420property.com/listings/real-estate-listings/for-sale/greenhouse-for-sale/, unveil fresh viewpoints and supplementary details to enrich your understanding of the topic.
Managing Humidity and Ventilation
Cannabis thrives in a well-ventilated greenhouse with regulated humidity levels. High humidity can lead to mold and mildew, while low humidity might stress plants and hinder growth. A hygrometer to monitor moisture levels, coupled with dehumidifiers or humidifiers to adjust them, are vital accessories for cannabis greenhouse operations. Ventilation systems like exhaust fans help circulate air and remove excess humidity, simultaneously decreasing the risk of plant disease and providing fresh carbon dioxide—a key component for photosynthesis.
Monitoring and Supporting Plant Health
Support structures such as trellises and stakes are necessary to manage the physical growth of cannabis plants. These aids help to support heavy branches, promote upward growth, and maximize space efficiently. Digital pH meters and nutrient meters enable precise management of the soil and hydroponic solutions, ensuring that cannabis plants are not being over or underfed. Additionally, using ground cover or mulch can prevent the emergence of weeds, reducing competition for resources, and keeping soil moisture consistent.
Automating for Consistency and Efficiency
Automation technology can simplify the cultivation process and improve the consistency of yields. Systems like automatic watering and feeding can save time and ensure that plants receive the correct amount at regular intervals, significantly reducing the likelihood of human error. Drip irrigation systems are particularly effective in delivering water and nutrients directly to the plant roots with precision. Automated environmental controls, which adjust temperature, light, and humidity, can react faster than manual monitoring and adjustment, optimizing the growth conditions and reducing stress on plants.

During a segment on “Hardball with Chris Matthews,” Trump devotee Ann Coulter made her scatterbrained argument for why Donald Trump shouldn’t release his tax returns: he probably has something to hide!
Well no sh*t, Annie!
Coulter claims that somehow, Donald’s refusal to release is a clever strategy because why would he want to release his taxes and have tax attorneys all over the country comb through his records?
Um, maybe because that’s what every other presidential candidate has done?
But then Coulter dropped the real issue: Even if Trump’s returns proved he never gave a dime to charity, proved that he had intimate dealings with the mob, proved that he hid millions offshore, or even proved he had no wealth at all, his supporters wouldn’t care.
Surely you don’t need reminding, but we are certainly at an all-time low of politics when this kind of limp-wristed crookery can occur and there are absolutely no consequences. | [

'Climate change is here' — but is it to blame for the extreme weather this summer?
It's been a record-breaking summer when it comes to the weather around the world. In Canada alone, we've been hit by severe heat in the prairies, wildfires on the West coast, and storms on the East coast. Over 90 deaths have been linked to a heat wave in Quebec.
Now, an international group of scientists is working to identify when extreme weather is caused by climate change, and when it isn't.
Climate change is not a future concern—it's already here
"It's very important for people to understand that climate change is already affecting them. It's affecting the weather they experience from day to day," Miles Allen, a member of the World Weather Attribution team and a climate scientist out of the University of Oxford, told Quirks & Quarks host Britt Wray.
"It's incorrect to blame every instance of extreme weather that happens on climate change, but at the same time it's misleading to say climate and weather are different."
"That's what this research is all about. It's about establishing which of the events we see have been made more likely by climate change and quantifying the size of that effect."
His colleague Friederike Otto recently led the study looking at the causes of the current heat wave across Europe. Heat waves have happened throughout history, but Otto's weather attribution study found that localized heat waves were five times more likely under climate change. Because of that, the risk of simultaneous heat waves — like the ones currently affecting Europe — increases even more.
"If we load the weather dice to double the risk of a six, we actually increase the risk of a double six by a factor of four and we increase the risk of a triple six by a factor of eight," said Allen.
"So the odds of these coincidences of many heat waves happening, widely dispersed in different parts of the world, happening at once, are going up even faster than the odds of an individual heat wave happening in one location."
He cautions that while not all extreme weather is caused by climate change, it's important to know the difference.
"It's about understanding cause and effect. Lots of things contribute to weather events — many of them natural," he said. "But it's a very important element in the story because unlike other factors, which might go away next year, climate change is with us to stay, and we have to get ready for it getting worse."
On Monday, a group of 16 scientists published a worst case scenario report, saying if our carbon emissions are left unchecked, we could be headed toward "Hothouse Earth conditions," warming our planet by 4 to 5 C.
"That would mean melting of an awful lot of ice, which would mean sea level rise of between 10 and 60 metres," said Katherine Richardson, professor in biological oceanography at the University of Copenhagen and one of the study co-authors.
"It would mean heat waves like we've never seen before. It would mean large areas of the planet where humans no longer could live and grow food. It would mean much wilder storms. It would mean that the world that we know it would be no longer here."
Allen says that we can still prevent such a future from happening.
"We do have a choice. We can keep this an exceptional summer or we can accept it becoming the norm, and what we need to do is very simple. We need to stop dumping carbon dioxide into the atmosphere."

Daily climate change forecasts in the future?
Allen suggests that meteorologists start including climate change details in their weather reports, to clearly indicate when it is playing a role in a particular weather pattern. CBC asked Environment and Climate Change Canada to see if they had any plans to include climate change reports in their forecasts. This was the department's response:
Event attribution is an important research topic that the Climate Research Division (CRD) at Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC) has been active on. It aims to determine the extent that human influence may have had on the likelihood of a class of extreme weather or climate events similar to (or worse than) the event just occurred. Such studies help to understand the causes of extreme events. For example, a recent published study indicates that the risk for extreme fire weather that resulted in the Fort McMurray Wildfire in May 2017 has increased due to human-induced warming.
ECCC's Climate Research Division is currently working with the National Research Council in developing future projections for climate extremes such as extreme temperature, intense storms, snow accumulation etc. | [

Not unlike their decade long relationship, Angie Bowie’s grief over the loss of her ex-husband David has been played out in the public eye.
Angie was in the UK’s Big Brother house when she first heard heart-wrenching news of Bowie’s death.
She, like the rest of the world, did not even know he had been ill.
Her decision to remain in the house following his death has been widely scrutinised by the public and the media.
“If I leave, I look callous, if I stay, I look callous,” she said of her choice to stay.
“I just don’t want the press to get to me. I’d prefer to be here, but I’m damned if I do and damned if I don’t.”
Angie has subsequently left the house and since begun to reflect on her relationship in the media.
Describing herself as a “realist” she has spoken to a number of news outlets about the pleasures and sorrows of being married to one of the most influential and beloved musicians in history.
Angie was just 19-years-old when she first met Bowie and the pair had a relationship that was open and tumultuous from the start.
She describes one particularly shocking incident to the The Sun newspaper, in which the star allegedly tried to choke her while high on cocaine.
Angie had been fighting with Bowie’s PA Corinne Schwab, when David Bowie apparently hurtled across the room towards her and grabbed her through.
“It was awful,” she recalls.
“Suddenly David hurtled across the room. He grabbed my throat with both hands and started squeezing. He was blindly angry, yelling at me as he tightened his grip, and I started panicking.
“It didn’t feel as if he was going to stop. Corinne pulled him off and saved me.
“It was an awful thing to happen. I hate the thought of it.”
A few months later the couple divorced and a silence fell between them, which lasted until Bowie’s death.
“Despite our decade of marriage and a child together I was airbrushed out of his life,” she wrote in a recent piece published by the Daily Mail.
“He never demonstrated any affection or gratitude after we parted.”
Angie subsequently remarried to punk musician Drew Blood, with whom she has a daughter.
She has been with her current partner, who is a labourer for 23 years.
“A relationship like that with a man like that, it defines your life”, she says.
“I don’t know what kind of husband David was to his second wife, Iman, but I heard he could be neglectful so maybe it was not all flowers and fun for her either.” | [

El Portal de Echaurren is a dream. A dream belonging to a man: Francis Paniego.
- It is a dream rooted in a valley with paths that lead into the essences of fresh grass and of dry leaves, and the essence of soil and tradition. And, above all, onto family.
- Francis Paniego was awarded the National Gastronomic Prize as the best chef in Spain in November 2012.
- A year later, the Michelin Guide bestowed on El Portal del Echaurren their second star.
- Francis’ cuisine cannot be understood without the Oja Valley, in general, nor Ezcaray in particular, for they are the inspiration, the product, and its main idiosyncrasy.
- This book follows the course of that dream and the man who brewed it, it isn’t just the profile of any chef: its structure, in six parts, provides a complete and independent conception of El Portal de Echaurren.
- It also sheds light on how everything around Francis Paniego surrounds and complements him.

Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court Rules Against Non-Bio Mom
The Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court ruled Friday that a lesbian non-bio mom had no parental rights over the five-year-old daughter she and her former partner had agreed to raise together. The women separated before marriage was an option for them. Although they were listed as “Parent 1” and “Parent 2” at the fertility clinic they used, the non-bio mom never adopted the child. The Boston Globe relates the Court’s position:
Same-sex couples who fall out of love while raising children must abide by the same legal rules as any other dissolving couples: What counts in the court system are birth certificates, marriage licenses, adoption papers, or proof that you share equally in the nurturing of the youngsters.
The Globe goes on to say:
A lesbian from Middlesex County put forward some novel legal theories to establish her parental role. She said she deserved to be a legal parent because she and her former partner had effectively formed an agreement to raise a child together. She also argued she should be, at least, a de facto parent with visitation rights, because what she lacked in time with the child she gave in money as the primary breadwinner.
The Court disagreed:
The court also said the woman, who toiled long hours as codirector of a nonprofit organization, did not spend enough time caring for the child to establish her parental rights while the biological mother tended to most of the caretaking.
Novel legal theories? Let’s see... how many opposite-sex couples agree to have a child together, with one person as the primary caregiver and the other the primary breadwinner? How many employed straight men (and it is primarily men) see their children only briefly each day, and some days not at all?
The bio mom now plans to end the temporary court-mandated visitation.

Still other traders can make the mistake of thinking that cheaper is better. For options, this isn't necessarily true. The cheaper an option's premium is, the more "out of the money" the option typically is, which can be a riskier investment with less profit potential if it goes wrong. Buying "out of the money" call or put options means you want the underlying security to drastically change in value, which isn't always predictable.
With respect to an option, this cost is known as the premium. It is the price of the option contract. In our home example, the deposit might be $20,000 that the buyer pays the developer. Let’s say two years have passed, and now the developments are built and zoning has been approved. The home buyer exercises the option and buys the home for $400,000 because that is the contract purchased.
Speculation is a wager on future price direction. A speculator might think the price of a stock will go up, perhaps based on fundamental analysis or technical analysis. A speculator might buy the stock or buy a call option on the stock. Speculating with a call option—instead of buying the stock outright—is attractive to some traders since options provide leverage. An out-of-the-money call option may only cost a few dollars or even cents compared to the full price of a $100 stock.
Just like many successful investors, options traders have a clear understanding of their financial goals and desired position in the market. The way you approach and think about money, in general, will have a direct impact on how you trade options. The best thing you can do before you fund your account and start trading is to clearly define your investing goals.
Options are powerful because they can enhance an individual’s portfolio. They do this through added income, protection, and even leverage. Depending on the situation, there is usually an option scenario appropriate for an investor’s goal. A popular example would be using options as an effective hedge against a declining stock market to limit downside losses. Options can also be used to generate recurring income. Additionally, they are often used for speculative purposes such as wagering on the direction of a stock.
An option is a contract that allows (but doesn't require) an investor to buy or sell an underlying instrument like a security, ETF or even index at a predetermined price over a certain period of time. Buying and selling options is done on the options market, which trades contracts based on securities. Buying an option that allows you to buy shares at a later time is called a "call option," whereas buying an option that allows you to sell shares at a later time is called a "put option." | [

US upbeat on manufacturing
New York, February 16, 2013
US manufacturing got off to a weak start this year as vehicle assembly tumbled, but a rebound in factory activity in New York state this month suggested the decline would be temporary.
Manufacturing output fell 0.4 per cent in January after rising 1.1 per cent in December, the Federal Reserve said yesterday. It followed two months of solid gains and largely reflected a drop in automotive production.
"Given that most of the weakness was due to the give-back in motor vehicle production after the 11 per cent surge in activity during the last two months of last year, we expect this retreat in industrial output to be temporary," said Millan Mulraine, senior economist at TD Securities in New York.
In a separate report, the New York Fed said its "Empire State" general business conditions index rose to 10 from -7.8 the month before. February's index showed the first growth in the sector since July and the best performance since May 2012.
The rebound was driven by new orders, where the index was at its highest since May 2011. Economists said the pick-up in activity likely reflected recovery from Superstorm Sandy, which struck the East Coast in late October.
"Growth in the current quarter could get a boost from rebuilding efforts in the region," said Joseph LaVorgna, chief US economist at Deutsche Bank Securities in New York.
Factory activity has cooled in recent months, but there is no sign that the sector, which carried the economy's recovery room the 2007-09 recession, is heading for a hard landing.
The weakness in manufacturing last month helped to push overall industrial production down 0.1 per cent while output had risen 0.4 per cent in December. – TradeArabia News Service

Super Dragon Ball Heroes: World Mission seeks to bring the arcade sensation to Western home audiences but only works for the most hardcore fans.
Super Dragon Ball Heroes: World Mission is the first non-handheld localization of a Japanese arcade game that blends 3D Dragon Ball fighting game visuals with mixed reality trading card gameplay. The original game gained significant popularity in Japanese arcades by combining the massive franchise with a captivating gameplay gimmick, in which players place their physical Dragon Ball Heroes cards onto a specialized board to deploy their favorite characters from various series and timelines onto a virtual battlefield.
Now the franchise makes its Western console debut with this port ditching the physical cards for free digital ones. While this should be a relief to anyone who has ever fallen down the financial well of booster packs before, the move from the arcade to the PC and Switch was a bit messy. Much of the gimmicky arcade appeal clings onto the experience like the useless human appendix to its functional large intestine. Still, Super Dragon Ball Heroes: World Mission‘s numerous imperfections won’t keep otakus away, but it’s feasible that avid card game players may find it hard to embrace the game when presented with its convoluted mechanics and technical missteps.
For starters, World Mission majorly deviates from traditional card games like Yu-Gi-Oh, with its gameplay closely resembling a cross between the mainline Pokémon games and Mega Man Battle Network. Including well over 1,000 cards that feature more than 300 characters, players take a deck of seven cards into battle with the goal of depleting their opponent’s HP in a series of quick-time events (QTEs) called Charge Impacts (CIs). Usually, the player whose cards are imbued with the largest numbers and most overpowered abilities and effects wins. There are three card types, Co-op Bonuses, Super Abilities, Ultimate Unit Chances, Card Action Abilities, Touch Action Abilities, meters like Power Level, Hero Energy, card Stamina to balance, and that’s not even everything – to say that World Mission is overwhelming is to put it lightly. However, as these QTEs determine who deals more and receives less damage, the course of battle ultimately comes down to players’ ability to fill the Charge Impact meter to its fullest while defending and attacking each round. There are a few hitches to this that come in the form of CI buffs and debuffs, but this facet of World Mission is an otherwise barebones skill game.
CIs and other QTEs are the focus of cinematic scenes in which players watch their iconic fighters face off, but World Mission fails to deliver much spectacle during these animated sections. In fact, they might be the game’s worst design choice. Even though they boast an impressive number of unique character models and a ridiculous number of re-skins, these feel underutilized when paraded around in a handful of recycled animations so stiff and amateur that they appear as if ripped from the Budokai era. Nevertheless, these animations comprise the majority of what players see during matches, and the utter lack of an option to skip them during single player battles hamstrings the game’s pace.
Also showcased during these interactive scenes are Card and Touch Action Abilities, which trigger bombastic attacks when executed successfully. Unfortunately, these sequences aren’t compelling to trigger, requiring players to complete bizarre QTEs by moving a card-shaped cursor around on a representation of the game board or drawing shapes over the attacking character. Unlike CIs, these timed QTEs are too easy to possibly mess up and add little to the experience aside from visual confusion.
World Mission suffers from an unwavering attachment to its roots in the arcades of Japan, and the above issues are only a portion of this larger problem’s symptoms. Like ports of other Japanese exclusives before it, some of World Mission‘s English translation is a little awkward in places, with card effects being somewhat inelegant (but consistent) in their wording. However, that doesn’t hold a candle to the fact that none of the Japanese audio in World Mission is translated into English, neither through subtitles or voice dubs. While it’s probable that die-hard Dragon Ball fans will be unfazed to know that the characters are exclusively voiced by the Japanese cast, their tune will change when quips are being screamed over one another while the game’s announcer narrates the action, none of which they will understand unless they speak Japanese. This is accompanied by World Mission‘s unpolished sound design, which is probably no big deal in a noisy arcade but is painfully clear when played through home speakers or headphones. Worst of all, it appears no one considered including options or settings of any kind, meaning that players wanting to tweak aspects of the game’s audio or controls in the name of preference or accessibility are fresh out of luck.

In April 2006, a Boeing Delta II rocket launched CloudSat, along with a second satellite, CALIPSO, into space on two- and three-year missions to study the world’s clouds and a mix of airborne particles called aerosols.
Twelve years later, both satellites are still chugging along, though it has not always been easy going in recent years. In CloudSat’s case, only a series of orbital maneuvers and other technical fixes have kept the satellite returning useful science data in the twilight years of its mission.
One of CloudSat’s most recent acquisitions—a view of the inner structure of Hurricane Florence as the storm took aim for the Carolinas—underscores the mission’s scientific value. This natural-color image shows how Hurricane Florence appeared from above to the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) on the Aqua satellite on September 11, 2018. The second image, acquired by CloudSat on the same day, shows a cross-section—how the storm would look if it had been sliced near the middle and viewed from the side. The blue line is the north-to-south track that CloudSat flew over Florence. Note that the MODIS image has been rotated.
The CloudSat pass offers a unique view of Florence’s asymmetrical structure, the intense convection and rainfall churning inside the storm, and the complex vertical cloud structure that is not visible from above. The storm’s clouds reached an altitude of about 15 kilometers (9 miles) at their highest point—fairly high for a tropical cyclone.
The darkest blues represent areas where clouds and raindrops reflected the strongest signal back to the satellite radar. These areas had the heaviest precipitation and the largest water droplets. The blue horizontal line across the data is the melting level; ice particles were present above it, raindrops below it. Note how the radar detects more signal immediately below this line. “It almost looks like two images were pasted together and not matched very well,” said Philip Partain, a researcher at Colorado State University who helped design CloudSat’s data processing system. “That’s because falling ice crystals become coated in water as they pass the melting level and become very reflective to the radar.”
With its 94 GHz radar, CloudSat does not measure patches of the heaviest rainfall well. “Very heavy rain weakens the signal, and we can’t get good measurements in those areas,” continued Partain. “You can see that happening in the image where the signal from the ocean’s surface, which is obviously highly reflective outside the storm, disappears in the center of the storm.”
However, CloudSat has some allies on its mission to study Earth’s clouds from above. NASA’s Global Precipitation Mission (GPM) has a complementary radar tuned to a slightly different wavelength that excels at making measurements of the heavy rains found in the heart of tropical cyclones. For example, see this visualization of GPM’s view of intense rainfall within Florence on September 7, 2018.
The Cloud-Aerosol Lidar and Infrared Pathfinder Satellite Observation (CALIPSO), the satellite that launched alongside CloudSat, also collects complementary measurements, but of especially fine-grained particles and droplets that are difficult for both CloudSat and GPM to detect. For several years, CloudSat and CALIPSO flew near each other as part of the Afternoon Constellation, or A-Train, of satellites, a strategic type of formation flying designed to maximize the scientific value of the data collected by the participating satellites.
In February 2018, CloudSat mission engineers at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California, executed two thrusters burns that lowered the satellite’s orbit out of the A-Train following the loss of one of four reaction wheels, devices that help control the spacecraft’s orientation. The maneuvers lowered CloudSat’s orbit from 705 kilometers (438 miles) above the surface to 688 kilometers.
“The spacecraft is flying now in what we call the graveyard orbit,” said Partain. While mission planners hope to see Cloudsat continue to collect data through 2022, small problems can become big problems with a satellite of such an advanced age. “We don’t have much room left for error at this point,” said Partain. “At any point, we could lose the battery, the radar, or another one of the reaction wheels.”
At least Cloudsat won’t be flying alone during its golden years. The scientists and engineers who manage CALIPSO decided to ease that satellite out of the A-Train and into an orbit near CloudSat, making it possible for the two satellites to continue making coincident observations. By late September, CALIPSO will have resumed its familiar position about 4 kilometers (2 miles) ahead of CloudSat, just like the two satellites flew for years as part of the A-Train.

The Case for Wesleyan Higher Education
On August 27th, 2021, The New York Times headline, The New Chief Chaplain at Harvard? An Atheist left many scratching their heads. Reporter, Emma Goldberg opened the story:
The Puritan colonists who settled in New England in the 1630s had a nagging concern about the churches they were building: How would they ensure that the clergymen would be literate? Their answer was Harvard University, a school that was established to educate the ministry and adopted the motto “Truth for Christ and the Church.” It was named after a pastor, John Harvard, and it would be more than 70 years before the school had a president who was not a clergyman. Nearly four centuries later Harvard’s organization of chaplains has elected as its next president an atheist named Greg Epstein, who takes on the job this week.
This inversion of Harvard’s original purpose seems to represent the end of the institution as it has been known. Harvard is now, in a metaphorical sense, upside down.
In addition to my service as a District Superintendent in Canada, I have the privilege to serve as an adjunct faculty member training pastors in graduate education. Here I propose five ways in which Wesleyan Higher Education is vital to our movement. I advocate that Wesleyan families consider Wesleyan institutions when selecting a higher education setting.
- Formation of Disciples. The number one reason for Wesleyans to attend, support, and pray for our institutions of higher learning is the formation of disciples in Christ. Wesleyan institutions offer students the opportunity to experience fellowship, discipleship, service, and mission all in a context of worship. Students are formed through what John Wesley called the means of grace. These formative practices are under direct attack in our culture, and they are worth promoting and preserving. Are Wesleyan schools exemplars of perfect Christian formation? Of course not. Are Wesleyan institutions led by sincere and devout administrators, faculty, and chaplains? Yes! No institution is infallible, but upholding the formation of disciples in Christ is an objective worthy of promotion. How can you pray for, promote, and contribute to the formation of disciples in Christ within our institutions of higher learning?
- Family Ties. The Wesleyan Church is a comparably small denomination with strong family ties. Generations of students from our denomination attend our colleges and universities. Many have found their spouses and have committed to serving Christ throughout the world. These generations are connected by faith and through family. Additionally, students who attend university together form deep familial bonds because of the communal nature of participating in the Christian learning process. I consider many from my Wesleyan higher education experiences as sisters and brothers. Through the formation of a community committed to learning and service, Wesleyan schools glorify God. How can you encourage students in your community to attend Wesleyan schools by emphasizing the formation of family ties and lifelong friendships?
- Focused Identity. The current turmoil within some Wesleyan movement’s sister denominations can be explained by the disintegration of identity which originated in institutions of higher learning. An especially strong trait of our Wesleyan institutions is remaining focused on our original identity which is rooted in the Christian mission and biblical values while other institutions have lost their moorings. How can you lovingly encourage and pray for leaders of our educational institutions to resist the disintegrating cultural influences that threaten our identity as a denomination?
- Faculty Dedication. The Wesleyan denomination has come a long way as regards scholarly qualifications for the faculty of our educational institutions. While the world continues to increase in complexity, the ability to research and write with skill and intelligence matters. Wesleyan students also require faculty of the highest spiritual and moral character. Our institutions of higher learning will continue to thrive due to committed faculty who serve with skill while keeping their faith in Christ as primary in their lives. Consider contacting a Wesleyan faculty member and offering a word of thanks for their dedication.
- Future Missionaries. The Wesleyan Church used to view missional work as an outreach to nations outside the Christian West. We have come to the end of an era as the age of Christendom has transitioned to post-Christendom. Wesleyan Universities are leading the way in the formation of students for this new era of mission to both the post Christian West and the world at large. How can you cooperate with the mission of raising up missional disciples through Wesleyan higher education as a pastor and church leader?

Situated on Gibbes Island in the heart of the South Carolina Low Country, Secession Golf Club sits in perfect isolation among the tidal inlets with no housing on or around the property...
Developed by two men who already own high-end private golf clubs, the philanthropic golf facility at Congaree Golf Club is probably unlike any you’ve come across before.
Featuring tees and fairways sown with a new type of paspalum grass that’s tolerant to heat and salt, the course at May River Golf Club is a Jack Nicklaus design which lies at Palmetto Bluff in Bluffton.
Mike Strantz fashioned some seriously spectacular elevation changes when he shifted more than two million cubic yards of earth during construction of the course at Bulls Bay Golf Club.
Isolated from the many other courses laid out along the South Carolina coast, the Arnold Palmer-designed Old Tabby Links course lies at the centre of an exclusive residential complex...
There are two courses at the Kiawah Island Club and the Cassique was the first North American architectural ensemble of five-time British Open champion Tom Watson...
South Carolina resort golf is not on offer here at Musgrove Mill and the club makes no apologies for its difficulty.
It’s said that members favour afternoon play on the Nicklaus signature course at Colleton River Plantation because, if they time it right, their final putt will meet the setting sun over the Colleton River.
Situated between Kiawah River and Bass Pond, six of the River course holes at the private Kiawah Island Club play along the water’s edge with the remaining fairways routed around woodland, lakes and marshes.
The Pete Dye course at the Colleton River Plantation Club appeared six years after the Nicklaus layout debuted at the same location. | [

The San Diego Padres Are Watching Their $340 Million Nightmare Come to Life
After posting their first winning record since 2010, the San Diego Padres entered this season with the opportunity to take an even bigger leap forward.
It doesn’t look like that will happen.
Because based on the latest report about the health of star shortstop Fernando Tatis Jr., the Padres are watching a $340 million nightmare come to life.
Fernando Tatis Jr. secured his financial future in record-setting fashion
At just 22 years old, Fernando Tatis Jr. may appear far too young to have already become one of the highest-paid baseball players of all time. But thanks to his skills at the plate, the Dominican native recently scored a record-setting payday.
In February, the Padres signed the talented shortstop to a 14-year, $340 million contract. The deal represents the longest contract in MLB history.
So why did San Diego commit such significant financial resources on a player who has less than a full season of experience under his belt?
At 6-foot-3, 217 pounds, Tatis boasts an impressive, athletic frame that gives him the ability to inflict serious damage at the plate. Padres fans got an early glimpse of his potential stardom back in 2019 when Tatis made his MLB debut at the age of 20. He hit.317 with 22 home runs and 53 RBI in 84 games.
Last season, his batting average dropped to.277. However, Tatis showcased his prolific power by smashing 17 home runs in just 59 games. He finished fourth in MVP voting and captured Silver Slugger honors for the first time in his young career.
The San Diego Padres are watching their $340 million nightmare come to life
Already off to a slow start, Fernando Tatis Jr. suffered a serious setback during a third-inning at-bat against the San Francisco Giants. The young star fell to the ground in obvious pain after he took a hard swing on a 2-2 pitch from Anthony DeScalfani. Padres manager Jayce Tingler and a trainer had to help Tatis off the field. The team later announced Tatis sustained a left shoulder subluxation—otherwise known as a dislocation.
Fresh off signing a $340 million contract, the shortstop now faces an uncertain future. In fact, it sounds like San Diego’s worst nightmare is about to come to life.
Dr. Michael Banffy, an LA-based orthopedic surgeon, told Kevin Acee of The San Diego Union-Tribune, that Tatis is looking at “a long season of instability” in his left shoulder if he puts surgery. Delaying going under the knife could also result in long-term damage.
Tatis has had trouble with his left shoulder dating back to his days in the minors. But given his latest setback, the Padres star may have no choice but to undergo season-ending surgery.
“I think it probably would weigh pretty heavy on their mind, particularly if it occurred twice over the past two weeks and likely occurred prior to that,” Banffy told Acee. “Then you also have the issue is he continuing to make it worse every time it comes out. You worry about the cartilage damage and bone loss. Unfortunately, this is an issue that is going to have some decision-making behind it. Unfortunately, it’s (five) games into the season.”
Who are the top candidates to take over for an injured Tatis?
If Fernando Tatis Jr. needs season-ending surgery, San Diego sits in the unenviable position of having just paid a record-setting price to secure a star who now has legitimate long-term health concerns. Because if his troublesome left shoulder continues to be a problem, that obviously doesn’t bode well for his chances of living up to his $340 million deal.
With Tatis’ availability firmly up in the air, the Padres must pivot in a different direction.
So who are the candidates to replace the 22-year-old in the lineup?
Ha-Seong Kim will get the first crack at the starting shortstop position. At just 5-foot-9, 168 pounds, he doesn’t bring any of the size or power that Tatis provided. However, the 25-year-old does bring solid speed and contact ability to the equation.
Jake Cronenworth, San Diego’s starting second baseman, could see some time at shortstop moving forward. Plus, the Padres also have 21-year-old Tucupita Marcano available. The 6-foot, 170-pound infielder currently ranks as the No. 6 prospect in the organization.

One look at the millions of apps out there we're pretty sure that we've covered just about everything there is on this planet, so why not have an app bringing you something from another one…namely Mars.
Meteorites traveling towards the surface of Mars can often be traveling at several times the speed of sound as they hit the planet's thin atmosphere. A new study of images taken from NASA's Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) suggests the hurtling rocks trigger shockwaves that roll through the air actually triggering avalanches on the dusty surface before they strike.
Whether there's life on Mars could be one of the defining questions of our generation, since a definitive "yes" would suggest that life is significantly more common on places that aren't Earth, which includes the entire rest of the universe. This is why we're scouting out extremophiles, and the latest almost-alien bacteria hail from a lava tube in Oregon.
It's a bad time to be a water bear, especially a water bear with a non-refundable round-trip ticket from Earth orbit to Mars' moon Phobos. Russian's Phobos-Grunt probe is having engine trouble, and unless engineers are able to work a minor miracle, the whole thing will be coming back down in a matter of weeks.
We're not really sure whether there is currently, or has ever been, life on Mars. Russia is taking a proactive approach to that whole situation and sending a spacecraft 140 million miles or so to visit the red planet with a cargo of microbial sightseers.
The six-man crew of volunteer astronauts who joined the Mars500 mission to isolate themselves in a bus-sized simulator for 520 days to simulate a journey to Mars are returning back to "Earth." Technically, they never left Earth, so they're just opening the door to their bunker for the first time in over nearly a year and a half.
Today is day 2,816 of Opportunity's 90 day mission to Mars. If you do the math, it means that we've been surprised by how awesome this robot is doing about 30 times over. It's traveled a staggering 20 miles over the last six or seven years, and JPL has put together this time-lapse of a three-year, 13-mile section of that journey.
While NASA is leaving low Earth orbit and manned lunar ambitions to private spaceflight companies, the agency has been tasked by the Obama administration with taking the U.S. beyond the moon. To that end, NASA is revealing a huge rocket that the agency's calling the Space Launch System.
It may not take us a long time to get to Mars, but on the off-chance that it does take several years for humans to get there and back, we're gonna need a bunch of food along the way. NASA's been thinking about it, and they've got some menu ideas.
We wish we had better news to report, but the official timetable for that next "small step for Man" isn't all that timely. Our species has fallen depressingly short of the star-hopping future we were promised in the post-Apollo orgy of interplanetary sci-fi — and that was all before the global economic train wreck. Still, the next few decades aren't entirely without promise. Two trends are in our favor: 1) space exploration is becoming an increasingly international sport — more competition will breed more results — and 2) the advent of a commercial space industry will shepherd a nimbler, more efficient approach to exploration. To that end, we present some of the projects that hold the most promise for Humanity's Big Move into the final frontier. While plenty of cool scientific toys will be flung out into the cosmos in the coming years, for this piece we're concentrating on the missions and projects that will directly lead to getting our species' collective butt back into the cosmos. Earth is so yesterday. | [

BEIRUT, LEBANON (1:10 P.M.) – On Thursday, Iran unveiled its Bavar-373 air defense system during a joint exercise between the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) and Iranian Army.
In a video released shortly after its test, the Bavar-373 can be seen being fired at a hypothetical enemy target at a long distance.
The IRGC and Iranian Army forces were able to lock in on the enemy target and strike it, as the Bavar-373’s debut was considered a major success by both forces.
According to Fars News Agency, who quoted the army information base, the Bavar-373 air defense system succeeded for the first time in shooting down enemy targets over Iranian airspace.
This is the first presence of the Bavar-373 system in an air defense exercise, which had a very successful performance under the control and guidance of the country’s integrated air defense network.
The Bavar-373 is the first high-altitude and long-range air defense system developed in the country, which was produced with the cooperation of the country’s defense industry experts and the army air defense force. | [
