Does Composite Decking Get Slippery?
Nobody wants to slip on their deck and end up with a severe knee or hip injury. These accidental falls, especially among older people, can be serious, painful and expensive. However, if you’re planning to install a deck by the pool, or if it frequently rains where you live, you first need to be concerned about the safety of your deck. Likewise, take the necessary precautions if you deal with long, cold winters that bring snow and ice.
What Makes Decking Slippery?
The primary reason for wooden decking becoming slippery is the growth of algae, lichen, moss and mildew. Leaves that pile up and rotting vegetation are contributing factors that support the growth of algae or lichen. These potential dangers might not be noticeable during dry weather, but they become a hazard in damp environments, making your deck very slippery. During winters, snow that melts into water that freezes into ice can also turn your deck into a dangerous ice rink. Some people might install composite decking and expect their deck to be completely slip-free, confident in the knowledge that algae will not grow on composite decking materials. While this may be true, keep in mind that pollen, leaves, dirt, and other debris that fall onto the composite decking surface can still cause mildew and mould.
Early Generation Composite Decking
Composite decking, also known as wood-polymer composite (WPC), synthetic decking or simply composite decking, has quickly become the preferred decking material over the past decades. Not only is it an environmentally friendly alternative to timber, but it’s also lightweight, requires low maintenance, is offered in a variety of colours and designs, and won’t splinter or rot. It is also known to be resistant to stain, moisture and weather. However, some brands of composite decking are not resistant to mould and mildew, particularly when they’re set up under the shade. Some composite decking products also have a reputation for slipperiness. Nonetheless, like most materials, composite decking has evolved and progressively improved over time. The early generations of composite decking were undeniably slick, but the material has been modified and upgraded into the slip-resistant options we have today. The following are early generations of composite decking that brought about its reputation for slipperiness.
First Generation Composite Decking
First Generation Composite Decking – These composite decking boards were made from shredded wood fibre and recycled plastic materials, but the mixture of wood and plastic was not as firm as timber planks and tended to crack, crumble and sag over time. These first products also absorbed moisture easily, which led to the growth of moss, mould and mildew and made the surface very slippery.
Second Generation Composite Decking
Second Generation Composite Decking – These were called PVC or plastic decking materials since manufacturers decided to remove the organic wood component and mainly use plastic. Unfortunately, plastic decking boards tend to become brittle, split when there’s a rise and fall in temperature and still cause mould when they are always wet. The plastic surface also made it slippery.
Shielded or capped composite decking also comes under the banner of second-generation composite decking. These boards come with a plastic protective layer, keeping the product durable and environment-friendly. The impermeable capping material on the surface of the composite decking keeps moisture out, making the boards less slippery. However, many designs with a plastic surface lacked traction to prevent skidding.
Capped composite decking is more expensive than wooden decking or traditional composite decking, but some brands offer cheaper options. The problem with cheap capping is some products have capping that’s not connected well to the core of the board, causing premature peeling. Other capping products are prone to scratching and gouging, allowing moisture to enter the material and creating slippery portions on the deck.
Does Composite Decking Get Slippery?
Compared to decks made of wooden or plastic decking, today’s composite decking boards are less likely to be slippery. Genuine timber decking boards are extremely absorbent, which becomes a problem when they’re wet. Decks become slippery because of algae growth on wooden and organic surfaces. Also, when not regularly maintained, wooden decking boards tend to have smooth spots that can be slippery when wet. Furthermore, when you clean wooden decking with a pressure washer, you open the deck’s natural grooves, making the boards more vulnerable to water absorption and consequently more slippery.
Most composite decking boards now have textured finishes that provide traction, making them slip-resistant (not slip-proof). Unlike the early generation of PVC decking boards, the composite decking’s fibre content reduces its plastic component’s tendency to split when there are fluctuations in | [

Continue with that fantastic counting by completing pages 3 and 4 of your maths workbook. If you need some support with question 1 on page 3, don't forget you have your number cards at home to help you. Lay them out in your number line to see which numbers come next in the sequence.
As another counting activity, ask an adult to draw a circle in the middle of a piece of paper. Can they write a number between 1 and 10 in it. Now can you add that number of petals to the circle to make a flower. You might use paint, felt tips, crayons to draw your petals or maybe you would rather use sweets, pasta shapes, playdough or beads to do so. Choose another number and do the same to another circle on your page. Fill up your page with colourful flowers, each with different amounts of petals.
Which flower has the most petals on your picture? Which flower has the least amount of petals? | [

I recently attended a conference on this topic at the Rutgers School of Social Work and found it very helpful. This topic is always relevant to relationships.When you are in a relationship or a marriage and there is someone else (any third party) involved in a negative way, that is called a “triangle”. A famous therapist, Murray Bowen, created this term many years ago and it is still relevant today.
Triangles are a part of human relationships and can sometimes serve a positive purpose: they may reduce anxiety and stabilize the couple “system”, for a time. But ultimately this 3rd person takes the focus of the couple off of each other and hurts their relationship by doing so. For instance, you and your partner are having problems, which results in tension, anger or anxiety.
To calm these emotions, a third person is “triangled” into the relationship. Maybe your mother-in-law is contacted by your husband and the problem is discussed with her. She is now part of the “emotional system” and has taken pressure off him by being added into the “anxious” system. Most likely, her own tension increases because she is now aware of the issues (or always has been) and feels bad about it. His mother may feel powerless to help or hesitant to be involved due to past attempts to help that were not well-received. Perhaps she favors your husband over you or there is a partnership between them that typically works against you. Triangling her in makes him feel better and probably makes you feel more anxious.
Children are also often triangled into their parents’ relationship, particularly babies, who suddenly change the parents’ lives in a big way and create unexpected stress. Kids “interfere” in a triangle by allowing the couple to focus on the child rather than each other. This is not good for the child or the couple.
A friend of yours or your partner may be triangled in to your relationship as a 3rd party, once one of you confides in her about the marital problems. This may temporarily help one of you, but it is best to not allow a triangle to happen in the first place. You should attempt with your partner to work to resolve the issue without the 3rd party. This will decrease that person’s influence and will be better for everyone.
Triangles are always present in some minor form but are more apparent at times of stress. Their purpose is to relieve tension in someone and “give” it to another person. There may be than one third party, which then forms a separate triangle. A good strategy for the 3rd party (which may be you) is to try to remain neutral and not take on someone else’s stress. The more you are drawn into the emotions in the triangle the more you will be affected by it. Do not take sides if you are triangled in! Try to remove yourself and be as neutral and as unemotional as you can. Therapists are often the 3rd party in the triangle of the couple and remain neutral to help the relationship problem.
Cheating in a couple paradoxically can sometimes temporarily help a relationship, by giving stress to the 3rd person and reducing it in the couple. For example, the harmed party in the couple may ignore the affair because it reduces tension in the couple. But this “fix” rarely lasts and not helpful in working towards a healthier marriage. A solid marriage foundation should be built on trust, honesty and a commitment to each other.
So, beware of triangles. You may not notice them and not realize that you facilitated creating them. Try and remember that your relationship is between you and your partner, and nobody else.

Things to Consider Before You Get A Dog
David P. Miraldi
In the United States over 4.7 million people are bitten by dogs each year. For that reason the Center for Disease Control and Prevention offers several suggestions for families before they get a dog. These recommendations are worth posting.
1 Consult with a professional (veterinarian or responsible breeder) to learn about an appropriate breed of dog for your family.
2 If a dog or its breed have a history of aggression, that dog or breed is not appropriate for household with children.
3 If it appears that one of your children is fearful or apprehensive around dogs, delay acquiring a dog.
4 Spend time with a dog before buying or adopting it.
5 Use caution when bringing a dog into the home with an infant or toddler and never leave infants or young children alone with any dog.
6 Spay/neuter virtually all dogs because this frequently reduces aggressive tendencies.
7 Do not play aggressive games with your dog, e.g. wrestling.
8 Train dog social behaviors such as rolling over to expose the tummy and relinquishing food without growling.
9 Immediately seek professional advice from veterinarians, animal behavorists, or responsible breeders if the dog develops aggressive or undesirable behaviors.
Following these steps should decrease the chances of your dog biting another family member or a third party.

Russia Develops ‘Microwave Gun’ Able to Deactivate Drones, Warheads
Russia has developed super-high-frequency gun capable of deactivating unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) and the warheads of precision weapons at an impact range of ten kilometers which ensures 360 degrees of perimeter defense.
Russia’s United Instrument Manufacturing Corporation (UIMC), part of Rostec Corporation, has announced that it developed a super-high-frequency gun for BUK missile systems
The newly-developed equipment is capable of deactivating the radio electronics of UAVs and the warheads of precision weapons, according to a representative of the corporation.
The equipment, informally named the microwave gun, has been developed for the needs of Russia’s Defense Ministry and will be demonstrated during the closed part of Army-2015, an international event organized by the Russian Defense Ministry, the Federal Space Agency (Roscosmos) and state technology corporation Rostec, which will be held on June 16-19.
The UIMC representative has not revealed all the technical characteristics of the equipment but has mentioned that the impact range of the equipment is ten kilometers and that its defense perimeter is 360 degrees. | [

Towards the end of our interview, Robert Mintak CEO of Standard Lithium (V.SLL), laid out Standard’s criteria for evaluating lithium opportunities, “You have to get the right project,” he said, “There needs to be infrastructure. You need a workforce. You need to access to water and reagents. You have to consider the jurisdiction and the permitting rules. Utilizing modern selective extraction, you need to not only pump large volumes of brine, you need to know if you will be allowed to re-inject the processed brine.”
Extracting lithium from brine is a well understood but highly technical chemical process. The conventional solar evaporation process developed in the 1960’s is how half of worlds lithium is produced. The challenges with solar evaporation are many, huge environmental footprint, massive consumption of water in fragile ecosystems, extremely long development times, highly inefficient – less than 50% recovery, and weather dependent. A number of companies are work on bringing this process into the 21st century, moving the process indoors so to speak. The extraction of lithium from brine then removing the impurities through selective extraction, be it nano-filtration, solvent extraction, ion exchange or a variation thereof, it is a cost-effective way that has been demonstrated to work but not commercialized. Finding lithium projects suitable to apply this type of technology on is the biggest challenge.
Everything from exploration costs, lithium concentrations, impurities, extraction expenses, infrastructure and jurisdiction are risks faced by all project developers when proposing using a modern process reducing or eliminating those risks become key determining factors.
Standard Lithium has done an end run around many of the risk factors involved in lithium brines by positioning itself squarely in the largest brine processing region of North America. The development friendly jurisdiction of southern Arkansas. The region has been producing and processing mineralized brine from the “Smackover Formation” for over half a century with really large chemical companies extracting bromine and other minerals from that brine.
It is not an industry secret that the “tail brine”, the waste brine post bromine extraction, from the large Arkansas brine operations, which is pumped back into the ground, contained recoverable amounts lithium. Albemarle, the worlds largest lithium producer, has a significant presence in Southern Arkansas and has publicly highlighted the region as a world-class lithium resource. This information plus pages and pages of drilling data, USGS reports, and more caught the attention of Standard Lithium.
The challenge for Standard was twofold, acquire a large land position and secure rights to existing infrastructure and production to access the large volumes of lithium rich tail brine.
Over a 10-month period they did just that. This past January they announced an agreement with NYSE listed Tetra Technologies to secure the lithium rights to the last large land package in the most productive fairway in south Arkansas
On May 9, 2018, Standard announced that it had signed a Memorandum of Agreement with “global specialty chemicals company LANXESS Corporation and its US affiliate Great Lakes Chemical Corporation, with the purpose of testing and proving the commercial viability of extraction of lithium from brine (“tail brine”) that is produced as part of Lanxess’s bromine extraction business at its three Southern Arkansas facilities.”
In this release, Dr. Andy Robinson, President and COO of the Company stated “This project provides the perfect opportunity to test modern brine processing technology on an existing lithium brine stream. We hope to move as quickly as possible towards deploying our Pilot Plant.”
The LANXESS bromine operation processes several hundred thousand barrels of brine a day. Its facilities have been in operation for decades.
“We spent about nine months putting these agreements together,” said Mintak. “We needed to establish the relationships. What we achieve with these agreements is a large land package, with significant historic data which we will quickly model and publish an NI 43-101 report and more importantly with the Lanxess MOU we have secured access to a large producing brine resource, add the ability to leverage the infrastructure of a permitted chemical process facility to build and demonstrate our proprietary extraction process.”
Mintak is happy to check off the deal’s advantages. “This is by most counts already permitted. The brine is already being extracted at commercial scale. There is steam, gas, water, and electricity at the site. Many of the reagents we need are already on site. There are trained engineers already working on site,” said Mintak. “We have access to data going back years. It is an amazing amount of data.”
With access to this data and with a demonstrations scale pilot plant to derisk the technology of the lithium recovery, Mintak is confident that Standard will be able to produce a strong 43-101 compliant resource in short order. “We expect to move to Measured and Indicated almost immediately.”
Essentially, Standard will run the tail brine through a demonstration scale pilot plant – which will be assembled in Canada and shipped to the site in containers – | [

As parents, we focus more attention on the potential dangers than on the potential benefits of electronic video games, but these games are a normal part of modern childhood. If you know what to look for, video games can be a powerful tool to help children develop certain life skills. They can help parents choose appropriate leisure-time games, help educators seek ways to supplement classroom teaching, and help game developers create games that teach.
Recently, I wrote a research paper called “Children’s Motivations for Video Game Play in the Context of Normal Development” that was featured in the Review of General Psychology. The research included results from studies I led at Harvard Medical School and survey data compiled from interviewing over 1,000 public school students. Based on my research, here are eight reasons why video games can be beneficial to your child’s growth and education
Video games can help children’s brain development. When my son was a young adolescent, I watched him play Legend of Zelda games. He had to search, negotiate, plan, and try different approaches to advance. Many recent games, such as Bakugan: Defenders of the Core, involve planning and problem-solving. “Modding,” the process by which players customize gamer characters’ appearance and develop new game levels, also allows for creative self-expression, deep understanding of game rules and structure, and new ways of highlighting personalities and interests. Video games don’t have to be labeled “educational” to help children learn to make decisions, use strategies, anticipate consequences and express their personalities.
Roughly one-third of the children we studied said they played video games in part because they liked to teach others how to play. As one boy’s dad revealed during research, “Most of the interaction my son has with his buddies is about solving situations within a game. It’s all about how do you go from this place to that place, or collect the certain things that you need, and combine them in ways that are going to help you to succeed.” Some children gain status as the “go-to” kid who knows how to beat the toughest parts of a game. Teaching others builds social and communication skills, as well as patience.
Recently, I watched a friend’s 10-year-old daughter teach her how to play Guitar Hero. The game happened to include favorite songs from my friend’s teen and college years, which helped draw her in. The best part was seeing the daughter become an expert and share gaming skills with her mom–a reversal of the usual parent-child roles. Now that some video game systems are friendlier to novice players, it’s increasingly possible to share game time together. Plus, playing a video game side-by-side encourages easy conversation, which in turn may encourage your child to share her problems and triumphs with you. | [

WEST MICHIGAN- After an incredibly mild and rather springlike day yesterday, we’ll flip the switch and return to winter weather during the day today.
We’re under a Winter Storm Warning in our northern counties shaded in the pink. This means the impacts are going to be slightly higher and more widespread than areas shaded in purple under the Winter Weather Advisory.
The rain/snow/mix line still remains to the north even around early afternoon. This will likely become the time where impacts are being felt just a bit more, especially in those areas that have received snow or a mix for several hours as temperatures begin to fall.
By this evening, more areas around Grand Rapids will remain free of frozen precipitation. Impacts remain to the north, so areas north of Rockford have the potential to be very slick at this time.
Heading out this morning? Impacts will be low as temperatures are above freezing. This evening….travel impacts are limited unless you’re on U.S. 131 north of Grand Rapids.
That change to freezing rain and sleet moves further south throughout the night. This will likely cause slick spots on the untreated roads very quickly.
As a refresher, everything begins as snow until it reaches different layers of warmer air near the surface. When it refreezes differentiates the precipitation we receive at ground level.
While frozen precipitation is still possible in the early morning hours in Grand Rapids and further northward, areas to the south in Kalamazoo, Battle Creek, and Coldwater may be dealing with thunderstorms!
Light snow may impact the colder side of this storm as it exits off to the northeast.
What to expect from the end of the storm? Most areas south of Wayland will see mainly rain. Around the immediate Grand Rapids area, sleet/snow will mix for up to an inch, and a light coating of ice is possible as well. The further north you go, the better chance for show you’ll see. This is a very sensitive line depending on how much freezing rain/sleet falls. We’ll keep you up to date as these numbers change throughout the day. | [

I'm really interested in learning some more skills, and seeing how technologies such as arduino, 3d printing, and robotics can be used. I really want to learn how to design and build things by doing it.
I am interested in helping co-create the Footscray Maker Lab. My experience with building machines is pretty basic, but I'm happy to turn a hand anywhere I can help. I can probably help in setting up controlling software, networks and the like, and my physics lab background could be useful in calibrating and testing equipment.
I like to build things to grok them, previously software systems and some basic robotics and electronics. I have an academic background in physics/maths and have worked writing software. | [

Quartzsite is a mecca for winter snowbirds in the southwest. Located about 15 miles east of the California and Arizona borders, this tiny town set surrounded by a vast desert landscape is where thousands of RVers flock together every January and February. If you’ve never been to Quartzsite, home to the world’s largest RV rally, here are eight reasons why winter camping in Quartzsite is a must for your RVing destinations list.
1. Quartzsite is the biggest RV rally on the planet.
You won’t believe the huge variety of rigs you’ll see at Quartzsite RV rallies, it’s a RV enthusiast’s dream! From vintage fiberglass trailers to painstakingly restored Flxible bus conversions to ultra posh Newell motor coaches, Quartzsite is the best place to see the amazing variety of RVs that people call home. As you hop from campsite to campsite, you’ll get whiplash from constantly turning your head to check out the amazing varieties of RVs.
2. You’ll get firsthand tips and tricks from other RV owners.
Each January Quartzsite becomes a hands-on learning session for RVers. Whether you decide to set down your jacks in an owner’s group rally for your particular RV, or you want to rally hop to different owner’s groups because you’re trying to pinpoint your dream rig, you’ll have dozens of formal and informal learning sessions that can give you the real scoop about the RV that you own or just ones that catch your eye.
3. RV manufacturers and vendors offer on-site servicing, tips and tricks.
Quartzsite is a great chance to get your rig in prime condition for the rest of the snowbird season and beyond. That’s because manufacturers know that the annual gathering is an easy way to showcase their RV goods and services to thousands of RVers, all camped out in one location with plenty of time | [

We explore the relationship between the hard X-ray and submillimetre populations using deep Chandra observations of a large, contiguous SCUBA survey. In agreement with other recent findings, we confirm that the direct overlap is small. Of the 17 submillimetre sources detected in this field at 850 mum, only one is coincident with a Chandra source. The resulting limits imply that the majority of SCUBA sources are not powered by acive galactic nuclei (AGN), unless the central engine is obscured by Compton-thick material with a low (<1 per cent) scattered component. Furthermore, since Chandra detects only ~5 per cent of SCUBA sources, the typical obscuration would need to be almost isotropic. The X-ray upper limits are so strong that in most cases we can also rule out a starburst spectral energy distribution at low redshift, suggesting that the majority of SCUBA sources lie at z > 1, even if they are purely starburst galaxies. Despite the low detection rate, we find evidence for strong angular clustering between the X-ray and submillimetre populations. The implication is that AGN and SCUBA sources trace the same large-scale structure but do not generally coincide. If bright submillimetre sources represent massive elliptical galaxies in formation, we suggest that (for a given galaxy) the major episode of star formation must be distinct from the period of observable quasar activity.

Various forms of silicone are used in cosmetics, especially leave-on skin care products and various forms of hair care products. Common forms of silicone may be cyclopentasiloxane and cyclohexasiloxane. Other forms include various types of dimethicone and phenyl trimethicone.
What is silicone?
Silicone is a substance derived from silica (sand is silica). Silicone has unique flow characteristics that make it extremely slippery, and in various forms, it feels like silk on the skin, imparts emollient properties to the skin, and even when the skin becomes wet A water binder that holds well. In other forms, it is also widely used for wound healing and improving the appearance of scars.
Silicone and acne
The claim that no form of silicone will cause or exacerbate acne has not been confirmed in published studies, and there have been no reports of silicone irritating or "suffocating" the skin. Almost all of these claims are based on myth or anecdotal evidence, which is not the best way to determine the safety or efficacy of any cosmetic ingredient.
Can silicone fill the skin?
How do we know that silicone will not suffocate the skin? Due to their molecular characteristics, they have both porosity and air resistance. Think about the silicones in skin care formulas, such as the cover of tea bags. When you immerse a tea bag in water, the tea and all its antioxidant properties are released. Silicone remains on the surface of your skin, while other ingredients are mixed with "steep" oil. All ingredients must be suspended in some basic formula. Some of these ingredients remain on the surface and some are absorbed. Either way, the "activity" will pass. Consider how many kinds of topical medicines are suspended in petroleum jelly or mineral oil. These active ingredients can definitely pass. Petroleum jelly is much more effective than silicone in preventing water loss. Silicones have been used in combustion devices for many years due to their unique healing, protection and breathability properties.
Moreover, the molecular structure of commonly used silicones makes them impossible to suffocate the skin. The unique molecular structure of silicones (larger molecules, with a wider gap between each molecule) makes them a barrier to breathability, and it also explains why silicones rarely provide protection against water loss, but they rarely The reason for feeling heavy or blocked.
Has silicone blocked the pores?
Interestingly, silicone has been shown to help counteract the drying and flaking caused by common anti-acne active ingredients (such as benzoyl peroxide) and topical antibiotics. (Furthermore, silicone fillers are sometimes used to improve the appearance of acne scars. If silicone is an ingredient that clogs pores, this will certainly not be the case.) Perhaps, the most convincing reason is that silicone does not clog pores And cause acne (or blackheads) because from a chemical point of view, most silicones are volatile substances. This means that their initial sticky (thick) texture quickly evaporates and does not penetrate the walls of the holes that form acne. Instead, they help ensure that other ingredients are used evenly and leave a silky, almost imperceptible feeling, which significantly improves the texture and appearance of the skin. You can think of it as a breathable barrier that protects the skin and is hardly felt.
Hangzhou Silva New Material Technology Co., Ltd. was established in 2014. It is a young but fast-growing company, specializing in the research, development, production and sales of silicone chemicals. Silway specializes in modified silicone and formulation technology, and the product line covers agricultural silicone additives, silicone waterproofing agents, cosmetic silicones, sealants and additives, modified silicone for die casting, etc. Welcome to order: | [

You might be wondering why you should recycle your used cooking oil but before looking at those benefits that might help you make your decision let’s take a closer look at what the end product from recycling used cooking oil is.
is a clean burning fuel that is formed by recycling cooking oil through a chemical process called ‘Transesterification’. It is a diesel fuel substitute that can be used in diesel engines made from renewable materials such as plaint oils and waste cooking oil. Bio-diesel is mixed with diesel to create a blend. This blend is comprised of pure bio-diesel, also referred to as B100, blended with petroleum diesel at varying concentrations (Bn). The n refers to the percentage of bio-diesel in the blend. In its pure form bio-diesel is known as B100 (meaning 100% bio-diesel; a mix with 5% bio-diesel is called B5).
When looking at the positive impacts that bio-diesel there are two main types of benefits which are Environmental and Economic.
There are several positive aspects of using bio-diesel instead of regular fossil fuels:
- Renewability: Bio-diesel is produced using renewable resources (used cooking oil) whereas fossil fuels are heavily dependent on non-renewable resources. Therefore, making bio-diesel a much better alternative when looking at the sustainability of the resource itself.
- Burns cleaner: Fossil fuels are known to emit harmful chemicals into the atmosphere and increase the emission of greenhouse gases (CO2, CH4, etc.) which are major factors to climate change.
- Diverts Waste: Instead of waste oils being dumped into landfills they can be recycled to create an alternative energy source.
There are many different ways in which businesses and the economy can benefit from using bio-diesel and recycling waste oils:
- Local Businesses: Bio-diesel can be produced locally in Canada and has the potential to provide local economies with a new market for their products and waste.
- Job Creation: If bio-diesel can be incorporated into the energy sector it will encourage new business opportunities, investments and employment.
- Individual Businesses: Signing on up with a waste oil collection company like EcoZero can provide businesses with a small revenue stream through payments for collecting their used cooking oil.
Although it is not a commonly used transport fuel, it promises to be viable alternative with the increasing pressures of rising oil prices and the need for a sustainable environment. By using bio-diesel and recycling used cooking oils companies can see the above benefits and increase the sustainability of their practices while reducing the dependence on foreign oil. | [

Sales of LCD (liquid crystal display) monitors will top US$20 billion in 2003, overtaking revenue from sales of conventional CRT (cathode ray tube) monitors this year, according to research released Wednesday by IDC.
The worldwide PC monitor market will grow by 4.8 percent this year, driven by improving economies and an expected spike in PC sales growth. Last year, sales growth for monitors was just 0.7 percent, IDC said.
LCD monitors are steadily getting larger as improved manufacturing technology helps achieve lower prices. The predominant LCD size now is the 15-inch screen, but by 2005 the market will shift to 17-inch screens.
As prices for LCD monitors continue to fall, and CRT manufacturers fail to explain the advantages of their products to end users, the shift to LCDs will continue, according to IDC.
Experts have stated that the human eye needs to see 25 frames per second to be tricked into thinking that motion is continuous, and LCD monitors have often failed to meet this specification, making them less attractive for showing fast-moving graphics such as those found in games.
The new Diamond View DV159 LCD monitor from Mitsubishi Electric Corp. has improved pixel response time and can show over 60 frames per second, the manufacturer has stated.
As prices drop, manufacturers will increasingly offer LCDs bundled with PCs, and the standalone LCD monitor market will begin to shrink, according to IDC.
The U.S. is currently the world's largest monitor market, accounting for 34.4 percent of monitors sold, followed by Asia with 24.6 percent of shipments, IDC said. | [

The Big Picture
The Empire State Strikes Back
By Nick Dager
As digital technology inexorably transforms the way movie theatres do business, exhibitors at times may feel singled out as they adapt to the challenges of the transition. Realistically, though, as things stand now no segment of the motion picture business has been altered more dramatically than post-production. In the 1980s both audio editing and video editing were drastically changed by the advent of digital tools and, at first, those who adapted were happy. By the start of the Nineties the post business was booming, driven by the high hourly rates that could be commanded for work done in editing suites that often cost a million dollars or more to equip. Even more dramatic change came at the end of that decade, though, as lower cost tools gradually forced many facilities out of business. From 2000 to 2010, the industry saw a 43.2 percent decline in the number of video post-production companies, according to a 2011 report from IBISWorld on the nation’s Top 10 dying industries. New York, always a thriving production center, was not immune to these changes. Today, though, there are growing signs that the state’s overall production picture is poised for a comeback. The Empire State is striking back.Read More >>>

Transient Photoreceptor Phototropism in Developing Mouse Retina
thesisposted on 2019-08-01, 00:00 authored by Vittoria Maneo
This work focuses on quantifying the response of mouse rod photoreceptors to a light stimulus during developmental ages. The purpose is to have a better comprehension of the physiological mechanisms underlying transient retinal phototropism. The three considered post-natal ages are 15, 17 and 19. During this period the increase of ROS length and rhodopsin concentration reaches its peak thus, I expected to see an associated increase in the amplitude of the phototropism elicited by the light stimulus. In particular, rhodopsin is suspected to be a key molecule as far as concern this phenomenon but its role is still unclear. The observation of mouse rod photoreceptors was achieved with Near-Infrared light microscopy, which allowed to have a clear image of the freshly isolated mouse retinae. The images where acquired at 100 fps and they showed a visible movement in response to the light stimulus. The results of the data analysis showed that the amplitude of the movement had a sharp increase between 15 and 17 PN days, while the difference between 17 and 19 PN days was statistically irrelevant. This results were consistent with expectations, as the peak of the growth of ROS has a sharper rise during the first two considered ages. The almost indistinguishable difference between 17 and 19 PN days may depend on the fact that the variables are already saturating to the adult value.

Welcome to the 217th Metamorphosis Monday!
This week for Met Monday, I’m sharing a crafty Before and After. I made a quick pass through Pottery Barn a few nights ago and spied some cute starfish napkin rings. It’s kind of hard to see in this pic I snagged from the PB site here, but the ring part of the napkin ring is covered in jute yarn. I couldn’t tell what the yarn was wrapped around while in the store. Upon returning home, I read online at the PB site, it’s wrapped around a metal ring. A little idea sparked and I thought, “I can make that.”
I wasn’t crazy about the red color for the starfish so I made mine in blue, aqua and white.
If you wish to make some of these for your summer dining, here’s what you’ll need.
- Jute Yarn (95-120 inches of yarn per napkin ring, depending on how wide you cut the ring)
- 2-3 empty bathroom tissue rolls (The ones I used were 1 7/8 inches in diameter. Paper towel roll may work, also.)
- Starfish (The least expensive place to find starfish is in Dollar Tree and Big Lots. If you don’t have those stores near you or they are out of them, check Marshall’s or TJ Max)
- Glue gun or Fabri-Tac
I didn’t buy anything for this project since I already had everything I needed. Since I wasn’t crazy about the red color of the starfish on the PB napkin rings, I decided to use the pretty blue, green and white starfish I already had. The blue and green starfish are resin and are from Big Lots last year. I bought the white starfish years ago on eBay.
Step 1: Cut your tissue rolls the width you wish to make your napkin rings. I just eyeballed mine and they ended up being approximately 1 1/4 inches wide. The PB napkin rings are skinnier, but I like a fatter napkin ring so I cut mine a bit wider.
I thought all tissue rolls were probably the same diameter, but they aren’t. I had two kinds of bath tissue in the house and I noticed the tissue I bought a while back was on a bigger roll. If I had used those rolls, the hole part of the napkin ring would have been bigger than I wanted for my napkin rings. So, I used rolls from the tissue I purchased the last time I was in the grocery store since they were smaller.
I can’t remember the brand now since I always take the tissue out of the packaging and store it in the bathroom cabinet. I measured a roll and it was 1 7/8 inches in diameter, from outer edge to outer edge. Hopefully the size you have will work fine for this project. Paper towel rolls would probably work fine, too…so if you have some of those laying around, you may want to try using those.
To clarify, the rolls I used were 1 7/8 inches in diameter and I cut the napkin rings approximately 1 1/4 inches wide.
I cut my tissue rolls using a sharp, serrated bread knife. If your cuts end up being a bit off, you can trim up the edges with scissors to make them more even. I was able to get three napkin rings out of each roll but it’s probably safer to just cut two from each roll. If you cut three, you have very little to hold onto as you make the cut for the third napkin ring. So I recommend only cutting two from each roll. Be careful to not cut yourself. If you don’t feel comfortable cutting the roll with a knife, use scissors instead.
Step 2: Once I had all the rings cut, I began by putting a drop of hot glue inside a ring. I pressed the end of the jute yarn into the glue. It dries quickly so you can get busy wrapping/making your napkin ring right away.
7-11-13 Update: I just discovered a glue called Fabri-Tac that’s known as “the glue gun in a bottle.” If you don’t want to fiddle with a hot glue gun, this glue is amazing. When you use it, it dries very quickly so it should be great for making these starfish napkin rings.
Step 3: Start wrapping the jute yarn around and around your ring, squishing each loop against the last loop so there won’t be any big gaps where the cardboard ring will end up showing through.
Tip: Since the yarn was sooo long (120 inches) I cut it in half and wrapped the first half of yarn around the ring, glued the end down, then repeated this for the other half of the yarn. You are doing all of your | [

Japan has arrange a working group to look at the problems raised by the potential launch of Fb’s Libra cryptocurrency mission.
The group, which began assembly final week, contains the nation’s central financial institution, the Ministry of Finance and the Monetary Companies Company, a high finance regulator, Reuters reported on Saturday.
The businesses will use the chance to debate the potential ramifications of Libra on fiscal coverage, monetary regulation, tax and funds forward of a gathering of the G7 nations’ finance chiefs on July 17-18 in Chantilly, France, the report mentioned.
With France – which at present holds the G7 presidency– having already moved to arrange a activity drive to have a look at cryptocurrencies together with Libra, the approaching assembly will put the difficulty excessive on the agenda.
When the duty drive formation was introduced in late June, Francois Villeroy de Galhau, governor of the French central financial institution, mentioned the physique can be led by European Central Financial institution board member Benoit Coeure and would study at how cryptocurrencies are regulated to keep away from cash laundering and different issues.
Nevertheless, Fb’s crypto was criticized by France’s international minister, Bruno Le Maire, final month over issues that Libra would possibly develop to switch conventional currencies. On the time, he referred to as for the G7 central financial institution governors to attract up a report on Fb’s mission for the July assembly.
“It’s out of query’’ that Libra be allowed “turn into a sovereign forex,” Le Maire mentioned on the time. “It will probably’t and it should not occur.”
Coeure is anticipated to current a preliminary report on the matter on the Chantilly assembly, Reuters mentioned.
Fb can also be dealing with heavy scrutiny within the U.S. this week as two congressional committees are holding hearings to query Fb over the Libra mission, amid calls from lawmakers within the nation to freeze the mission till extra will be decided about its potential advantages and dangers.
In attribute type, President Donald Trump additionally slated the mission in tweets final week. Trump mentioned Libra “may have little standing or dependability” and prompt ought to apply for a banking license and adjust to related guidelines if its goal is to turn into a financial institution.
Extra typically, the president additionally tweeted he’s “not a fan” of cryptocurrencies, including that they’re “not cash.”

New Particle Analysis Technique Paves Way for Better Air Pollution Monitoring
Efficient monitoring of airborne particulate matter (PM), especially particles with aerodynamic diameter less than 2.5 μm (PM2.5), is crucial for improving public health. Researchers in the group of Philip Russell at the Max Planck Institute for the Science of Light (MPL) now develop a new technique for continuously monitoring both the size and optical properties of individual airborne particles. They used optical forces to automatically capture particles in the air and propel them into a hollow-core fibre for analysis. The approach overcomes several limitations of existing methods by offering highly reproducible, real-time results and an unlimited device lifetime.
“The most unique feature of our technique is that it can count the number of particles — which is related to the level of pollution — while simultaneously providing detailed real-time information on particle size distribution and chemical dispersion,” said research team leader Dr. Shangran Xie. “This additional information could be useful for fast and continuous in-situ pollution monitoring in urban areas and industrial sites, for example.”
For the new analysis approach, airborne particles are trapped inside a laser beam by optical forces and propelled forwards by radiation pressure. The trapping force is strong enough to overcome the gravitational force acting on very small particles such as PM2.5 and automatically aligns the particles with a hollow-core photonic crystal fibre. Once aligned, the laser light propels the particle into the fibre, causing the laser light inside the fibre to scatter and create a detectable reduction in the fibre transmission. The researchers developed a new signal processing algorithm to retrieve useful information from the particle-scattering data in real-time. After detection, the particle simply ejects from the fibre without degrading the device.
The approach could offer a better way to monitor air pollution. It is especially promising for analysing fine particulate matter measuring less than 2.5 microns which can reach deep into the lungs and cause health problems. They have filed a patent on this technique and plan to continue to develop prototype devices, such as ones that could be used to monitor air pollution outside the lab.
For more information see the Optics Express article “On-the-fly particle metrology in hollow-core photonic crystal fibre” (https://doi.org/10.1364/OE.27.034496) and media coverage in English and German press.

About the Author
Tom Phillips is a farm boy from Mississippi whose grandfather was a circuit-riding preacher. His family’s spiritual heritage originated in the great awakenings throughout the Southeast beginning in Kentucky in the early 1800s. The Word of God as a daily guide for faith and practice bred a strong devotional life, a life of sharing God’s love through Jesus, and the joy in the Lord that historically changed the southeastern portion of the United States and eventually touched Tom’s family. Tom Phillips’ upbringing compelled him to share his faith as a young man. Desiring to help people, he began studying medicine with the intention of becoming a surgeon. But God intervened, calling him to share not physical healing but spiritual healing in the good news of Jesus Christ, a loving and forgiving Lord and Savior. Tom’s education quickly moved from medical school to seminary. Tom yielded to God’s call to a life of evangelism while in his second year of seminary. He realized the world had a desperate spiritual need, and a revived church could be the catalyst to renew society as had happened in previous revivals. God impressed upon Tom that he would share in a great revival to bring this nation back to Jesus’ love and forgiveness. God’s call opened to him a world of ministry and eventually the opportunity to serve with Billy Graham, where he saw millions surrender to salvation through Jesus. | [

This apartment in Kiev, Ukraine occupies an area of 120 m2. It is designed by Natalya Farnosova and Elena Samarina. The main artistic feature of the interior is the modern futuristic mosaic. The wide diversity of figures and lines, the graphics which is based on the dominance of white and black truly depict the artistic geometry and prove the simplicity. Even though the simple elements are not so sophisticated, the interior is pretty stylish due to the combination of all elements.
The apartment is small, so the architect obviously accentuated on the studio layout where the living room is combined with the dining room and the kitchen. Visually it seems that it was too hard to integrate all these kitchen cabinets and built-in appliances on the small area, however, the talented designers have managed to do that in a good manner. The eye-catching element of the area is the unusual table top of a dining table as it boasts a shape of a wave. The whole ceiling is covered with the material that looks like velours.
This small apartment reminds a salt cave because of the materials, extraordinary decorations and the original lighting system. The salt cave is quite cozy and undoubtedly it’s everybody’s dream. Designers put efforts into the nice work that is finished with white colour and minimalistic element. | [

Apologies for the very poorly written previous question.
We have a circuit that consistently burns out our MOSFETs when we attempt to use them at full power, 250V, but they seem totally fine at 200V.
The circuit is used to power a solenoid to make a small robot kick a ball. At the top, there is a capacitor charged up to 250V, next the solenoid with a snubber diode (unidirectional zeener with a 330v breakdown voltage). The MOSFET is off until we want a kick at which point we turn the MOSFET on and allow the cap to drain through the solenoid.
The mosfet we are using is the STD18N55M5, this one, it is rated to 16A continuously and 64A pulsed. The Drain source breakdown is 550V. I don't know exactly why there is a resistor or a diode alongside the MOSFET but I assume they are similarly for spike protection.
I am new to the project so I don't know a lot of the details but I have been tasked with trying to discover why our MOSFET keeps burning out above 200V. My initial instinct is that the 16A is just too low for 250V but I have no evidence to back this up. Another possibility is that the zeener is somehow breaking down at 250 rather than 330 and shorting the MOSFET between 250 and ground but that seems unlikely.
I don't really understand how one calculates the current through an inductor and MOSFET since there are no resistors in the path which seems like it would create infinite current which obviously isn't the case. Any insight or suggestions for things to try would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
EDIT: the cap is 1500uF, 250V. The flyback zeener is this one digikey.com/product-search/en?vendor=0&keywords=F4115CT-ND and the mosfet is the d package with no heat sink | [

In-Flight Entertainment That Begins With Wi-Fi
BY the end of this year, about 1,000 airplanes flying domestic routes will have Wi-Fi service, according to Aircell, the company that has done nearly all of the Wi-Fi installations so far. By the end of next year, 2,000 planes will have the service, Aircell says. That is roughly two-thirds of the mainline domestic fleet, which excludes regional jets.
So Wi-Fi is clearly going to become a new standard, even though there is no compelling evidence that more than a fraction of passengers will pay for the connection. With prices running as much as $12.95 a flight, it is unclear if customers will be receptive to another extra charge.
So how do airlines make this work long-term as a business proposition?
In the initial stage, the goal is just to encourage more business travelers to use Wi-Fi, once they know it’s going to be reliably available. Delta Air Lines, which says it will have more than 300 aircraft converted to Aircell’s Gogo Wi-Fi service by September, plans to offer discounts.
“This summer we’re going to launch a pricing concept where you can buy a monthly membership, with a pricing scheme designed for frequent travelers,” said Ranjan Goswami, Delta’s director of customer experience.
Mr. Goswami wouldn’t say how much a monthly pass would cost. Delta now charges $12.95 for Wi-Fi on flights of more than three hours; $9.95 for flights under three hours and, in a nod to the rapidly growing number of passengers who travel with smartphones enabled for Wi-Fi, $7.95 for hand-held devices on flights of any length.
In-flight Wi-Fi now offers Internet and e-mail connectivity. But airlines are looking at a possible second-generation market: using that connection for enhanced in-flight entertainment.
It costs about $100,000 a plane to install the Aircell system, which adds only 300 pounds of weight. Considering the far higher cost and weight for seatback digital video systems, financially struggling airlines face a tantalizing question.
As more people tote personal hardware on board, whether laptop, netbook, smartphone or whatever, can airlines avoid the cost of installing expensive seatback video?
Aircell’s Wi-Fi system uses a large-capacity server, “so don’t be surprised in the future to see more and more content being added,” said Jack W. Blumenstein, the chief executive. That means movies and other entertainment can be packaged on the ground and piped to the plane for viewing on passengers’ personal electronic devices, he said.
Another company, Row 44, offers a satellite-based system, which is being tested by Southwest Airlines. Wi-Fi sounds like a perfect solution for airlines facing a competitive need to remove those disliked old overhead screens and keep up with competitors who already have seatback video systems.
But it’s not a perfect solution for a customer. Laptops are difficult to use on a tray table in a cramped coach seat, while pocket-size smartphones and similar devices have screens that are roughly the dimensions of a playing card, or smaller.
Airlines wanting to compete in in-flight entertainment will probably have to consider a combination of digital seatback screens and Wi-Fi, said David Cush, chief executive of Virgin America, which recently installed Wi-Fi systems in 26 of its A320s and A319s.
JetBlue set the standard for domestic seatback video, including live satellite television. Some other airlines followed. Delta, for example, has seatback video systems on 100 of its mainline domestic aircraft and is considering whether to eventually install them on the other 200.
“We want to see how Wi-Fi goes, but we really like the results of our TV and video product in-seat,” Mr. Goswami of Delta said.
Most airlines that have Wi-Fi won’t say how many passengers are buying it. Mr. Cush of Virgin America said that 20 to 25 percent of its passengers use it on the San Francisco-Boston route, heavily used by business travelers. Across the board, the average is 12 to 15 percent, he said.
“The next step will be to integrate Wi-Fi into our seatback system,” he said.
“In the future, the devices most people bring onto the airplane are not going to be full-sized screens, they’re going to be BlackBerrys and iPhones,” Mr. Cush said. The company is planning to integrate Wi-Fi into its 9-inch seatback screen. “Sports is one of the most popular features on satellite TV,” he said. “Did you ever try watching a basketball game on a screen the size of a matchbook?” | [

The industry pursued the path of reformation quickly adopting to new ways of working, adopting modern method of construction and digitisation by the use of BIM and construction technology.
In our Bi-annual publication reporting the same we have revisited the cost trends, examined the Indian economy, reviewed the status of the construction industry and provided insights on the construction sectors, allowing our readers a summary of the past year.
The various sectors have reacted differently, and the market analysis has changed very unusually from previous trends. Some are emerging much stronger than others following in view of the changed circumstances of the pandemic. The past year has been dynamic which is likely to now smoothen with the vaccine rollout. The effect of this pandemic however will linger on this year while the world resets itself.
We hope our ‘Indian Construction Costs- A Bi-annual Review’ will be insightful and is a value add to the outlook of the industry in the present. | [

I used to be one of those people who always finished a book, even if they weren’t enjoying it. These days I regard it in the same light as eating everything on your plate: some meals just aren’t worth the calories.
Today’s post was meant to be a review of Julia Baird’s Phosphorescence, a beautifully written paean to nature’s ability to inspire awe and wonder. But five chapters in, I’d read enough to sustain me.
I’m just not that much of a nature lover.
My eyes are fixed on the horizon – I love a good sunrise or sunset, wild storm-tossed oceans (from a safe distance) and billowy cloud formations – but I miss altogether the minutiae of nature’s gifts. The wild orchids or native heath at my feet pass me by completely. Or more accurately, I trample blithely over the top of them. I love a bracing walk outdoors as long as there’s a decent coffee at the end of it.
I’m not proud of it. But there’s something liberating about publicly owning one’s shortcomings. It seems to come with age and the corresponding better understanding – and forgiveness – of one’s own nature. Much as I might wish I was one of those doughty mountaineers with their wiry frames and alpine walking sticks, I’m not. And looking down from a great height gives me vertigo. Give me a cobbled road, comfortable walking shoes and an object in the distance to aim for – like a really good apricot Danish – and I’m happy.
Comparing notes on Phosphorescence recently with a friend led us down various reading rabbit holes. Our conversation ranged from misery memoirs – we are over them! – to comfort reading. We concluded that this time of lockdown might be better spent nurturing our inner child than improving our minds. For my friend, that meant a return to the Chalet School series by Elinor Brent-Dyer. For me, Barbara Pym.
Barbara Pym sets her novels in villages with saints’ names.
She wrote them mostly in the 1950s, at a time of jumble sales and high teas at the vicarage. They were populated by single women in sensible brogues, roguish elderly gentlemen and the occasional young rake. Any whiff of sex always came from outside – a clergyman’s widow, good-looking and ‘rather too nicely dressed for her role’, or a naval officer’s wife with a largely absent husband – new to the village and in need of masculine protection.
Pym’s Excellent Women features one of each. The narrator Mildred – ‘an unmarried woman just over thirty, who lives alone and has no apparent ties’ – had no such whiff about her, but she describes the exotic newcomers beautifully. Her understatement – a Pym trademark – leaves the reader to fill in the blanks.
I have managed to find Mum’s copy wedged between the Mary Wesleys and the Anita Brookners, both of whom would feature near the top of my comfort reading list.
I’d been thinking about what appeals to me about the writing of these three authors when I found the email below. I had sent it to my mother during a six month house-minding stint in France in 2015. It encapsulates my feelings about all three authors, and gives an insight into where I got my love of reading. (Speaking of whom, you will need to know that my mother was infamous for falling asleep in the bath and drowning whichever book she was reading at the time.)
It seems that we are both travelling down that old memory lane with our reading and enjoying it equally well. It is quite possible that I have ‘Hotel du Lac’ at my place. And it may be of dubious providence. Because let’s face it, no one in their right mind would loan you a book in your bath days. On the other hand, I was always quick to borrow those of your recommended reads which had survived the rigours of dunking and subsequent mould.
I’m definitely bringing ‘A Misalliance’ home from France. I spent my first 2 mornings here lying in bed reading for an hour or two as my host and hostess are not early risers and my habits as house guest must be guided by theirs I think. With the result that I finished ‘A Misalliance’ yesterday. Such an exhilarating ending after pages and pages of nothing much at all. By which I mean pages and pages of exquisite detail of the mundanity of some people’s lives. How I love Anita Brookner.
What makes you think Barbara Pym is too slow moving for me? I’ve read most of her books and enjoyed them in the past. She takes small incidents and holds them to the light and pol | [

To have a government that exists with the singular objective of progress and development of the state, under the present circumstance, seems to be a farfetched dream, blurred by improbability.
However, distant or unlikely or it may seem, the power of giving ourselves efficient, unbiased and just political governors rests with us – the general population. We hold the key to drive the destiny of the next generation towards light and prosperity. As long as we shun the task at hand, we continue to deprive ourselves of the fruits of political freedom, democracy, and the riches of scientific advancement.
An eutopic realm in which a conscious and progressive government provides equal opportunity to all without the bias of cast, creed, colour and religion is what the founding fathers of our nation might have envisaged India to be.
The fact that even after 60 years of independence, we have failed to achieve even a quarter of what the nation is capable of, speaks volumes about our failure as one.
Today, however, times appear to be different. It is only conscious people that can elect a conscious leader. And this consciousness, with the advent of a liberal-intellectual thought process in the educated youth, appears to be growing.
If we come together and decide to cast our vote in favour of people who work for the sole purpose of collective economic development, only then can change begin to reflect in the true sense. Let the past performance of these leaders be the only testament to their abilities. Let us not be swayed by factional politics.
It has been observed over a significant part of the past century that such political ideologies of ‘me first’ or rather, ‘we first’ only ends up cancelling out overall national progress.
Having said so, the fact that a significant part of young India continues to be driven by caste politics, regional and religious polarisation is as much a reality as is the existence of acute poverty and illiteracy.
Case in point being, the young and charismatic face of the Patidar movement, Hardik Patel. A young man of not more than 24 who commands the support and respect of the vast Patidar community, Patel has championed the cause of OBC reservation for the Patidar community, for the past three years.
His agitation and the route taken by him for the attainment of demands is an excellent example of the ‘we first’ ideology – something that will surely end up cancelling our overall national progress. | [

Do the Berry Hustle!
It’s strawberry season, and CSA members know it. They zip into the Tin House, grab their quart containers, and head to the fields with purpose. “The Hustle” plays in my head as I watch them go. These members know the brevity of the season—that strawberries wait for no one. Layabouts will be disappointed, but hustlers will be rewarded.
This year the strawberries are in Chapel Field, the far-flung field with a beautiful view of the Manetto Hill Church. Dan and I had misgivings about planting berries so far from the Tin House, thinking that members would resent the longer walk, but so far the feedback has been overwhelmingly positive. In previous years, members could skirt most of the farm on their way to Pond Field, where the berries had always been planted, but now they stroll past peas, lettuce, carrots, and more. No doubt they are making dozens of discoveries along the way. Far from a punishment, the longer walk seems to be a pleasure. | [

Winter weather can be surprisingly hard on your lawn. After you have spent the rest of the year prepping and mowing and fertilizing and tending to your green lawn, the last thing you want is for winter to destroy all that hard work.
Prepping your lawn for the winter is actually called "winterizing" and there are some very simple steps you can take to learn how to do this process correctly.
These tips will help you take steps to protect your lawn this winter and even help your grass to be healthier and greener when spring returns.
1. Learn what type of grass is growing on your lawn.
As HGTV points out, in order to approach winterizing your lawn effectively, you must start by finding out what type of grass you are winterizing!
And if you are like so many homeowners who have inherited a lawn full of "mystery grass," getting confirmation of species can ensure your lawn care funds are well and productively spent.
But even if you think you know, it may be worthwhile to take a grass sample to your local garden store for confirmation.
This is because some lawn varieties grow fastest in spring and some grow fastest in fall. So they will need different care strategies over the winter.
2. Don't shave your lawn - cut it down gradually.
As LawnCare explains, you don't want to suddenly chop all the green away from the grass roots. This will cause your lawn to go into shock and weaken its defenses against winter's cold.
Instead, start gradually cutting back your lawn. Lower the mower blade a little at a time from one week to the next.
Then you can reduce the green part, which will otherwise likely become food for hungry rodents during winter's scarcity, without compromising the basic health of your lawn.
3. Make the investment into lawn aeration.
If you don't have an aerator, it is typically possible to rent one from a local home and garden center. Alternately, you can see if your regular lawn maintenance service provides this or hire a landscaper to do it for you.
Aeration is the process of breaking up compacted roots and soil so your lawn can breathe. For best results, water your lawn lightly first or do aeration after a light rain.
4. Add some compost and fertilizer to your aerated lawn.
This Old House describes the process of adding a light layer of compost and fertilizer to a newly aerated lawn.
Be sure to use fresh compost and a fertilizer that is appropriate to your grass type. Using a spreader is the best way rather than distributing it by hand - otherwise, you may end up with too much fertilizer in one area and not enough in another area.
If you need to add more grass seed to grow in patchy areas, do it after you have added the compost and fertilizer to your lawn. You can use the spreader to do this as well to make it quick and easy.
5. Work in the compost, fertilizer and grass seed with a rake.
While it is true that leaf blowers have replaced traditional rakes in many aspects of lawn care, a leaf blower won't work to spread the grass seed into your lawn.
For this, only a rake will do - unless you happen to have (or rent) a power over-seeder. This is like a seed spreader and a rake in one and can really come in handy if you have a large lawn!
6. Water your newly fertilized and seeded lawn.
The last step is simply to give your lawn some water so the fertilizer, compost and grass seed can settle in and start to work its combined magic.
With these simple overwintering lawn care steps, you can look forward to a vibrant green growing lawn when spring returns. | [

A vintage vehicle passes by in front of the U.S. Embassy in Havana, Cuba, January 12, 2017.
Cuba's foreign ministry said Sunday that it has not uncovered the cause of mysterious health symptoms that affected an official of the U.S. embassy in Havana last month and characterized the United States' decision to withdraw personnel posted there as "politically motivated".
US experts have yet to determine who or what is behind the mysterious illnesses.
The foreign ministry issued a statement with limited new details about the case, in which an employee at the US embassy reported having "health symptoms" hearing sounds in her home two days before.
Cuban investigators were sent to the home, but did not find the possible source of a sound and were not granted access to the USA official. Dr. Marc Siegel provides insight into the illness.
The individuals in the "potentially new cases" of a mystery illness that has plagued embassy employees have undergone medical evaluations and were not yet "medically confirmed", the official said.
USA officials have detailed how personnel in Cuba came to experience a variety of symptoms including sharp ear pain, headaches, ringing in one ear, vertigo, disorientation, attention issues and signs consistent with mild traumatic brain injury or concussion.

But Brazil stumbled in the semi-final back then, losing by a whopping 7-1 to eventual champions Germany. Once they touched down, a track suited Chechen leader Ramzan Kadyrov was among the first to greet Salah.
Kim, Trump arrive in Singapore for landmark summit
Secretary of State Mike Pompeo seemed to hint that the outcome of the talks might not be what Trump has promised in the past. All seven leaders had worked out a joint statement stressing the importance of a rules-based worldwide trading system.
"After more than a year of investigation led by specialized agencies and Cuban and U.S. experts, we can confirm that we have no credible hypothesis or scientific explanation that justifies the retaliatory USA measures", the foreign ministry said in a statement.
Two other officials said the individuals had been brought for testing to the University of Pennsylvania, where doctors have been evaluating, treating and studying Americans affected in Cuba past year as well as nearly 10 new possible cases from a USA consulate in China.
The officials weren't authorised to comment publicly and requested anonymity.
If confirmed by doctors to have the same condition, the two individuals would mark the 25th and 26th confirmed patients from the weird incidents in Cuba that were first disclosed previous year and have been deemed "specific attacks" by the US government. Cuba has denied any involvement in or knowledge of what may have caused the injuries.
"The Ministry of Foreign Relations reiterates that no evidence of the alleged incidents has been presented, and maintains its unwavering commitment to cooperate with USA authorities", Cuba said in a statement. "The Ministry of Foreign Relations reiterates that no evidence of the alleged incidents has been presented, and maintains its unwavering commitment to cooperate with United States authorities".
The US embassy in Beijing on Friday issued a health alert for its citizens after government employees were evacuated, the second alert in two weeks, sparking fear the case may be linked to events in Cuba.
Tesla has been garnering more criticism as it burns through cash and has suffered from a significant amount of production delays. Shortly after unveiling the new Roadster past year, Musk hinted at a future variant using rocket technology.
News reports said two women who appeared to be in their twenties were also wounded but their injuries were not life-threatening. The suspected attacker told police that he had attacked the passengers, according to Odawara police official Satoshi Oiye.
It worked. "The vast majority of people were having fun with the name change and were trying to solve the riddle", he said. The pancake chain has been coy about whether the name flip is permanent, saying Monday that it was "for the time being".
Professional acrobating might not be in her cards to be honest, but the little royal can definitely rock a pair of sunglasses. The Duchess, who gave birth to Prince Louis just seven weeks ago, looked sensational in her casual blue striped midi dress.

Liverpool have announced plans for a £60m expansion of the Anfield Road stand that will raise Anfield’s capacity above 61,000.
The designs, part of a public consultation exercise launched on Friday, are for a new 16,000-seat stand that will increase the stadium’s capacity by 7,000. A planning application for an extra 4,800 seats at Anfield Road was allowed to lapse in September in favour of the more ambitious scheme.
Liverpool’s plans are at the draft stage and do not include details such as an opening date, whether safe standing will feature or ticket prices, although the majority of the extra seats will be general admission. The development depends on the success of the public consultation, a second stage of which is planned for early next year, together with the planning application and the financial viability of the scheme. The club intends to pay for the construction via its existing banking facilities.
The redevelopment would leave Anfield’s famous Kop as the second-smallest stand at the stadium. Liverpool hope to submit a planning application in the spring. The club would apply in parallel for a permanent licence to host concerts and sporting events such as Gaelic and American football. It has a two-year licence for extra events and a permanent licence may prove a problem for local residents. Part of Anfield Road would be closed for good to allow for the new development, although there will be no intrusion into Stanley Park.
Liverpool’s chief operating officer, Andy Hughes, said: “I think it is clear we didn’t perhaps perform a consultation for the concerts as well as we could have done and we are always looking to improve. I think we did a really good job on the Main stand and the objective here is to run the best consultation process that we can.
“Our ambition is to increase the capacity of Anfield stadium and allow more fans to enjoy some of the best football in the world. We have always been looking at a long term development plan for Anfield and we have been looking specifically at Anfield Road as the next step post-Main stand.
“We have deliberately phased these investments as they are big projects in their own right. They require funding. Of the big steps we chose to do the Main Stand first, the training ground second and Anfield Road third. We are still in the development process for the training ground. That is looking to complete this summer so the timing to move on to design, planning and initiation of the Anfield Road development is right now.”
The £60m cost is Liverpool’s target figure and could be challenged by external factors such as Brexit. As with the £114m Main stand, the new Anfield Road stand would be constructed behind the existing structure before being joined together to minimise disruption to match days. A fan park would be located inside the new stand.
“There are three hurdles and they are all really important,” Hughes said. “It is all aspects of consultation with the local community, residents, local businesses and community groups. Getting through the planning process is equally important and also creating a financially sustainable model for the stand. Without any of those in place a build will not go ahead.” | [

When women ask to reclaim their space, this is what they mean- they should not have to step out of their house hoping and praying that they are not attacked for the simple reason of stepping out of their house. Sadly, we are daily reminded of how women in this country are not safe. While talking about the current situation of the country, Maulana Tariq Jameel shares his views on the ongoing rape epidemic.
The tragic Lahore motorway rape case highlighted how deeply entrenched shame culture, victim-blaming, and misogyny is in our society. It is beyond anyone to understand the pain that the victim had to go through during such a brutal act of barbarism.
On September 9, a mother of two was dragged to the nearest bushes and gang-raped by two men on the Lahore-Sialkot motorway while she was seeking help due to out of petrol in her car at the linked road near Gojra. The accused not only tortured her but also raped her in front of her children.
While talking on the issue, Maulana Tariq in a video expresses his deep condolences to the subject matter. Having no words to describe his abhorrence on the recent incident, he says that the authorities should take strict action against the criminals.
In the video, Maulana Tariq also blames the co-education for encouraging obscenity.
Netizens raise questions over Maulana Tariq’s comments on co-education
According to Maulana Tariq, co-education gives birth to the corrupt minds in our society. As he says in the video, “When the petrol and fire are put together, how can you not expect a fire to set?”
In addition to this, the religious scholar believes that the government should change laws and give exemplary punishment to sex offenders. However, some people seem to be enraged by Maulana’s point of view.
The juxtaposition of ‘aag aur petrol’ comes under fire
Why is it always the ‘behayai’ of women that get blamed but not the men?
One social media user also brought up the fact how despite segregated education in madrasas, some molvis rape children.
While on the other hand, a segment of society agrees with the Maulana Tariq
The emergence of rape culture has created an uproar on social media. Many Pakistani, including the veteran actress Bushra Ansari, earlier, urged Maulana Tariq Jameel to step in and address the nation about these issues.

KAIT is dedicated to providing Region 8 with the best team of meteorologists and the latest technology in our mission to keep you safe during severe weather.
As the Region 8 Storm Team tracks severe storms that move through this area, we have another tool to help keep you safe: The Central Nissan Storm Tracker. The most advanced vehicle in the Region 8 News fleet is a specially-outfitted Nissan Titan provided by Central Nissan in Jonesboro, Arkansas. Even at a glance, you'll see that this vehicle takes storm chasing to the next level!
Inside the Storm Tracker you will find the latest weather technology so our crews can get important information back to you. This technology was custom designed exclusively for the Central Nissan Storm Tracker making it the only one of its kind in the area. It’s one more reason that KAIT is the only station to turn to when severe weather threatens.
As severe weather moves in, members of the Region 8 Storm Team will take the Storm Tracker into the heart of developing severe storms. Radar data allows the field crew to see the exact same information we see in the Region 8 Storm Center. They see where storms are developing, how the winds are moving and where the largest hail may be falling. This, combined with what they see, is all relayed back to the station. They can also communicate directly to local county Emergency Management Agencies and the National Weather Service in Memphis and Little Rock.
Even when driving, that same technology that allows crews to track storms in the field also allows them to send back the most important information: what they see! The video equipment in the Storm Tracker also allows the crew to video what they see and send the live feed back to the television station to be used on the air.
We designed the Storm Tracker for this exact reason. It allows us to send meteorologists out in the field where the weather is happening.
We want you to get an up close look at our weather technology. If you are a teacher and would like to have a member of the Storm Team visit your school, or if you are planning an event and would like to have one of us stop by, just email us at email@example.com
Our Central Nissan Storm Tracker is just one more way that KAIT is working every day to be your First Alert! | [

- Denpasar — a bustling city, the administrative centre and transport hub of the island but not a major tourist destination
- Candidasa — a quiet coastal town, the Bali Aga and gateway to the east coast
- Kuta — surfer central, by far the most heavily developed area in Bali. Lots of shopping and night-life and the centre of lower-end party culture on Bali
- Jimbaran — sea-side resorts, a nice sheltered beach and seafood restaurants south of Kuta
- Legian — located between Kuta and Seminyak; also the name of Kuta´s main street
- Lovina — beautiful black volcanic sand beaches and coral reefs
- Padang Bai — a relaxed traditional fishing village with some touristic options. Great place to enjoy the beach, snorkelling, diving and eating fish.
- Sanur — sea-side resorts and beaches popular with older families
- Seminyak — quieter, more upscale beachside resorts and villas just to the north of Legian, with some fashionable upscale restaurants and trendy designer bars and dance clubs
- Ubud — the centre of art and dance in the foothills, with several museums, the monkey forest and lots of arts and crafts shops
- Amed — an area of peaceful, traditional fishing villages featuring black sand beaches, coral reefs and excellent freediving or scubadiving
- Bedugul — nice lakes in the mountains, a golf course, the botanical gardens and the famous Ulun Danu Bratan Temple
- Bukit Peninsula — the southernmost tip of Bali, with world class surfing, great beaches, and the can't-miss cliff-hanging Uluwatu Temple
- Kintamani — active volcano Mount Batur, great mountain scenery, largest Lake in Bali, cooler temperatures vegetable and fruit growing
- Mount Agung — highest mountain in Bali and the mother temple of Besakih
- Nusa Dua — an enclave of high-end resorts and a long, golden sand beach
- Nusa Lembongan — good diving, snorkeling and surfing and a great place to relax
- Nusa Penida — wild, rugged and untamed and as off-the-beaten-path as you will get in Bali
- West Bali National Park — trekking, bird watching and diving in Bali's only substantial natural protected area
Bali is one of more than 17,000 islands in the Indonesian archipelago and is located just over 2 kilometres (almost 1.5 miles) from the eastern tip of the island of Java and west of the island of Lombok. The island, home to about 4 million people, is approximately 144 kilometres (90 mi.) from east to west and 80 kilometres (50 mi.) north to south.
The word "paradise" is used a lot in Bali and not without reason. The combination of friendly, hospitable people, a magnificently visual culture infused with spirituality and (not least) spectacular beaches with great surfing and diving have made Bali Indonesia's unrivaled number one tourist attraction. Eighty percent of international visitors to Indonesia visit Bali and Bali alone.
The popularity is not without its flip side— like many places in the island's South, once paradisiacal Kuta has degenerated into a congested warren of concrete with touts and scammers extracting a living by overcharging tourists. The island's visibility has also drawn the unwanted attention of terrorists in 2002 and 2005; however Bali has managed to retain its magic. Bali is a wonderful destination with something for everyone, and though heavily travelled, it is still easy to find some peace and quiet if you like. Avoid the South of the island if you want a more traditional and genuine Balinese experience.
A consideration is the tourist season and Bali can get very crowded in August and September and again at Christmas and New Year. Australians also visit during school holidays in early April, late June and late September, while domestic tourists from elsewhere in Indonesia visit during national holidays. Outside these peak seasons, Bali can be surprisingly quiet and good discounts on accommodation are often available.
Modest dress is expected in Bali. Although bikinis are fine on the beaches and in hotel swimming pools, they are not appropriate while shopping, eating in restaurants.
The first Hindus arrived in Bali as early as 100 BC, but the unique culture which is so apparent to any current day visitor to Bali hails largely from neighbouring Java, with some influence from Bali's distant animist past. The Javanese Majapahit Empire's rule over Bali became complete in the 14th century when Gajah Mada, Prime Minister of the Javanese king, defeated the Balinese king at Bedulu.

EP: Brymo – Libel
Ọlawale Ọlọfọrọ, an R&B singer better known as Brymo, has released ‘Libel’, a five-track extended play (EP), wherein he addressed the ups and downs he has experienced in relationships.
The project, which was released on Thursday, has its artwork portraying a blood-drenched pant sitting on broken glass.
The tracks, one of which features Deborah Potest, a songstress, are marked for their soulful and melancholic tunes.
Among the titles that make up the project are ‘Ascendency’, ‘Love and Paradoxes’, ‘Messiah Complexes’, ‘The Phoenix’, and ‘Time’, some of which feature echoes and sound components typical of natural elements.
In April 2020, some Nigerian ladies had alleged that Brymo raped them but the singer dismissed the claims as false.
On the theme of one of the songs, Brymo had, while announcing the project’s release date in late October, said: “First single off ‘Libel’ is a song called ‘Messiah Complexes’.
“You get to hear me lay down my weapons, as I am tired of speaking up for lost causes. I just want to make plans with others and build useful and sustainable things from here on.”
Brymo, who started his music career in 1999 as a student, released his first studio album ‘Brymstone’ in 2007.
After signing a deal with Chocolate City in 2010, the contract was breached in 2013 after a heated controversy broke out between the two parties following claims by the singer that the label short-changed him.
Although Brymo later agreed he used the Chocolate City “Scandal” to sell his sound, the singer decided ever since to pursue his career without leaning on record labels.
In March 2018, he released his sixth studio album, ‘Oṣó’. The singer is best known for ‘Ara,’ his 2011 hit single.

(MENAFN- The Peninsula) QNA
Vienna:H E Sheikh Ali bin Jassim Al Thani, Qatar's ambassador to the Republic of Austria and Qatar's permanent representative to the United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO), said that the industrial sector in Qatar has great potential to lead growth rates over the next few years in light of the plans and strategies that have been developed and correspond to the new changes that have occurred in the global economic arena.
In a speech to the 17th session of the general conference of the UNIDO, the Ambassador said the State of Qatar had taken firm and strong steps in all areas of industry, whereas it has diversified the industry and developed supporting industries such as iron and steel, cement and food industries.
The Ambassador added that Qatar has also established an advanced infrastructure capable of servicing national industries and responding to their future needs and challenges, which helped to promote the industrial sector and increase its competitiveness in addition to the holding of mega-projects being developed in the areas of energy and desalination. He explained that economic development is a key element in the Qatar National Vision 2030, which is the engine of development by providing many opportunities and ensuring a better life for Qataris.
The Ambassador noted that the development of Qatar's economy means balancing the oil-based economy with a more knowledge-based economy in order to diversify the economy and ensure a stable and sustainable business environment.
The Ambassador pointed out that the State of Qatar pursues an open market economy policy, enacting appropriate legislation in order to create an environment conducive to legitimate competition away from monopolistic practices, and protecting industrial installations from dumping and harmful practices.
Sheikh Ali bin Jassim Al Thani concluded that the economic and social progress of modern societies is no longer subject to automatic development or being left to changing circumstances, but it's based on a long-term process with pre-defined goals, based on clear vision and sound planning, which has led Qatar to develop its comprehensive national vision 2030 in the interest of its present and future generations.

North Korea Successfully Tests Fusion-Powered Weapon.
An H-bomb, also known as a thermonuclear bomb, is a weapon energized by the nuclear fusion of hydrogen isotopes - deuterium and tritium. The bomb produces a much stronger blast, nearly hundred times more destructive than an atomic bomb, which relies on tearing heavy atoms such as plutonium and uranium apart - a process known as fission.
Even in H-bombs, the primary explosion needed to generate the energy that helps kick-start the fusion process is caused by a fission reaction, which later causes a secondary explosion, which is triggered by the fusion of the hydrogen isotopes.
Two (https://www.nbcnews.com/news/north-korea/north-koreas-kim-jong-un-claims-country-has-hydrogen-bomb-n477511) atomic bomb s were used to level Hiroshima and Nagasaki during World War II that killed more than 200,000 people.
On Sunday, South Korea's Kim Young-woo of the minor opposition Bareun Party said that the explosive power of the latest nuke apparently appeared to be much stronger than Pyongyang's fifth one estimated to have a yield of 10 kilotons. One kiloton is equivalent to 1,000 tons of TNT.
"(The North's latest test) is estimated to have a yield of up to 100 kilotons, though it is a provisional report," Kim Young-woo told Yonhap News Agency over the phone. "The test will be a very crucial political and strategic inflexion point."
The bombs dropped by the United States over Hiroshima and Nagasaki, which killed over 200,000 people, had yields of 13 and 21 kilotons, respectively.
Fusion-powered H-bombs can have yields measurable in megatons. The most powerful nuclear weapon ever detonated was the H-bomb "(http://gizmodo.com/5977824/the-biggest-bomb-in-the-history-of-the-world) Tsar Bomba," which was tested by the Soviet Union in 1961 and had a yield of at least 50 megatons, making it 3,800 times more powerful than the Hiroshima bomb. The bomb is 100 megatons and reportedly has a fireball radius of 1.88 miles and a radiation radius of 4.65 miles. To date, H-bombs have never been used in war.
While announcing Sunday's test, North Korea said its sixth nuclear test was a "perfect success." The confirmation came just hours after seismologists detected an earth tremor measuring 6.3-magnitude.
The test took place in Kilju County, where the North's Punggye-ri nuclear test site is situated. The "artificial quake" was 9.8 times more powerful than the tremor from the North's fifth test, Japan's state weather agency said.
Chinese authorities said two tremors were felt in a gap of few minutes, some are suspecting a tunnel collapse where the underground nuclear test was conducted. Concerns also grew about a radiation leak.
(https://twitter.com/JChengWSJ/status/904234698381058050) North Korea's state TV also said Sunday that the H-bomb can be mounted on an Intercontinental Ballistic Missile (ICBM).
"Our hydrogen fuel, which can be arbitrarily adjusted from tens to hundreds of kilotons depending on the target of the nuclear strike, not only exerts enormous destructive power," but can also explode at a high altitude, producing a "super powerful EMP [electromagnetic pulse] against a vast region," (https://www.rt.com/news/401850-korea-hydrogen-bomb-icbm/) North Korea's KCNA said.
Following the test, South Korea's Joint Chiefs of Staff (https://www.theguardian.com/world/live/2017/sep/03/north-korea-nuclear-test-south-korea-yohap-kim-jong-un-live) said in a statement that the country's military has "raised its alert status and stepped up its surveillance on North Korea."
This is not the first time North Korea has claimed to have tested an H-bomb. Last year in January, Pyongyang claimed to (http://www.ibtimes.com/north-korea-says-it-successfully-tested-hydrogen-bomb-announcement-follows-51-2250993) have tested an H-bomb, eliciting alarmed reactions from world leaders.
North Korea has carried out nuclear bomb tests since at least 2006 and has been subject to United Nations sanctions. Most recently, President Donald Trump threatened Kim Jong Un with | [

Want to decorate your garden so it looks great this summer. These tips will help ensure just that.
Inventory of Your Garden Furniture
Before you begin making inspiration board or start shopping, you need to take stock of the garden pieces that you already own. You need to determine which pieces can be repaired and which pieces should be replaced. One of the best times to purchase garden decor is preseason sales. It should be noted that prices increase when the weather begins to warm. Since outdoor living spaces are used as an extension of your house, you should opt for pieces that complement the design of your home’s interior.
Perennials are Perfect Plants
Weeds can be removed once the ground has thawed. When shopping for perennials, you should determine which plants will thrive in your area using the USDA Plant Hardiness Zone Map. In addition to this, you will need to determine the subclimate of the location where you will be planting. There are many conditions that can affect your plant’s ability to thrive. Using the USDA Zone Map and determining the subclimate can help to ensure your plants will do well in your location.
Once you have determined which zone you are in, you should determine what type of vibe you want for your garden (tropical, wildflowers, an English garden, etc.) and the color palette you want. You want to choose a few plants that will attract bees as these natural pollinators will keep your flowers blooming throughout the season.
If you do not have a large garden area, you can bring color to your backyard using containers. Containers filled with beautiful flowers will add a hint of color to your small porch, balcony or patio.
Next Step, Fire Pit
Creating a fire pit in your backyard is surprisingly easy and only requires a few inexpensive materials. Fire pits make the perfect place to entertain in the late evening and night when temperatures tend to become cool. Additionally, a fire pit makes an instant focal point and beckons visitors to gather around the fire pit.
You can build a wooden cover that can be placed over your fire pit to serve as a table for your drinks and snacks while the sun is up. Once the sun sets, the cover can be removed to reveal your firepit. Creating a double duty firepit can maximize your garden area.
Increase Your Shade
We know that the main thing that draws people outdoors during the warmer months is the sunshine; however, all-day sun exposure can be frustrating. Creating a space that includes areas of sun and areas of shade can maximize your outdoor living space.
There are many stylish options, so you do not have to settle for a patio umbrella. Adding a pergola to your outdoor area is the perfect place for relaxing or enjoying an outdoor meal. A Sun Sail can provide your outdoor spaces with a modern look while providing you with some much-needed shade.
Light It Up
Although a state of the art lighting plan that is installed by a professional would be great, there are many inexpensive lighting options available on the market. Additionally, you may already have some lights that can be used in your outdoor space.
You can wrap your trees with string lights to create an enchanted forest look. A hanging lantern or birdcage can be filled with string lights to provide a concentrated burst of brightness.
Solar powered LED pathway lights can illuminate your walkways or the edge of your patio. There are also solar powered spotlights that can illuminate your home, a fence or some foliage.
Use Outdoor Curtains to Create Outdoor Rooms
You can create the feel of an outdoor room by adding curtains. These curtains can help to enclose your outdoor space and make it feel much more intimate. Attach hooks to the underside of your porch, pergola or awning and hang curtains on a curtain rod.
Outdoor fabrics have better durability; however, if you want to create an ethereal effect, you can opt for transparent fabrics if you are willing to take them down when they are not in use.
Use Water to Create a Tranquil Spot
Adding a water feature from Outdoor Fountain Pros or windchimes is the perfect way to provide a soothing sounding backdrop. The trickling sound of water can help to create a zen-like experience. In addition to water and windchimes, you can increase the tranquility of your garden space using hanging baskets and sculptures to your garden.
Enjoying the outdoors has been shown to restore the mind and the body. Creating an outdoor space allows you to relax, unplug and enjoy the great outdoors. | [

Superior Producer wreck
One of our most popular trips is to the 50-meter long wreck of the Superior Producer, the best preserved wreck on Curaçao.
On September 30, 1977, the ship Superior Producer, built in 1957, was en route from St. Anna Bay to Isla Margarita (Venezuela), loaded with luxury goods such as whiskey, perfume, bags, jeans and other clothing. Upon departure from the port of Willemstad, the ship immediately ran into problems. The portholes were still open and the ship was overloaded and poorly loaded. Soon the ship began to sink. To prevent the ship from sinking in the harbor, it was towed westwards by a tugboat to where it is today, at an ideal depth of 30 meters for (advanced) divers.
Nothing remains of the ship’s cargo today. It was rescued (you could also say: looted) and drunk or worn by anyone who could get hold of it. Many inexperienced treasure divers had to pay for this with decompression sickness.
Today the wreck is exactly on the second mega pier, and can only be dived on when no cruise ships are docked.
The wreck is a beautiful artificial reef richly overgrown with various species of corals and sponges and attracts many fish such as tarpons, barracudas and mackerels, as well as much smaller marine life.
This trip is only suitable for divers with an Advanced certification or it can be done during an Advanced course. Usually we combine a dive on the Superior with the adjacent Double Reef, but we can also dive on the Superior twice, or only once. And for the real enthusiast there is also the specialty wreck diving.

Owners, players, and staff associated with football clubs are expected to take a financial hit after coronavirus brought the sport to a grinding halt earlier this month.
FIFA is going to convince clubs to a proposal that will see the summer transfer window remaining open as far as January, reports Telegraph.
Experts are predicting that with the coronavirus placing a strain on the financial resources of clubs, spending on transfers is expected to fall in the next transfer window.
Several clubs have mooted proposals to limit the monetary impact of the ongoing suspension of leagues by asking the players to take a pay cut voluntarily. However, nobody is sure how the players or the bodies that represent that are going to respond to the plea.
One of the reasons FIFA wants the club to agree to the proposal is to keep money flowing through football at a time when its scarcity is threatening the very existence of some clubs.
FIFA believes that having an extended transfer window might see the clubs spending big after the ongoing total break from football.
The world football governing body is aware that several clubs, most notably Birmingham among them, have already asked their players for wage deferrals.
But it is still hopeful that the market will see a flurry of activity from the wealthiest clubs in the world, with those at the bottom of the football pyramid not expected to be busy in the transfer window.
The news that FIFA are looking to expand the transfer window has come barely a week after it set up a working group to determine the potential impact of COVID-19 on transfers.
An announcement by the world football governing body claimed last week that the FIFA-Confederations working group will assess whether any amendments to FIFA regulations are necessary to protect both the players and clubs in this time of uncertainty.
The working group will also assess whether a potential support fund should be established to help clubs most affected by the pandemic. Issues like adjusting the registration periods of players, as well as the competition calendar, will also come under the spotlight during its discussions.
Dossiers for lover and hater. Triumphs, tragedies, embarrassments, victories of all Bundesliga clubs.

The Jersey City Council voted down a three-year, $4,276,001 contract for crisis interventionists for 911 behavioral health call services due to staffing and community concerns.
By Daniel Ulloa/Hudson County View
“Justice for Drew! Say his name! Our community is definitely crying for help,” said Tina Nalls, referring to when Andrew Washington was fatally shot by a police officer when he was having a mental health episode and wielding a knife in August.
“We were here the other night when you had the caucus. We wanted to hear your questioning of Robert Winston of the [Jersey City] Medical Center,” Ann-Marie Nazzaro, of Jersey City Together, explained.
She noted Public Safety Director James Shea spoke first on resolutions for more police officers and ammunition before leaving the meeting prior to the discussion on the mental health services contract.
Nazaro also claimed that Winston said at the caucus: “That’s what we’re proposing. But we haven’t been able to speak with Director Shea.”
“The resolution, as it stands, is not a standard the citizens of Jersey City deserve,” Carol Harris said to applause, calling on the council to vote it down.
She called for a new RFP for 24/7 services, police and emergency operator training, including mental health professionals, and funding from the Department of Public Safety instead of just the Department of Health and Human Services.
Robyn Gorman noted that the Jersey City Together proposal would have covered 160 hours a week versus the limited hours of 2.p.m. until 10 p.m. in the proposal. It also included police and mental health professionals training together.
She further called for a continued advisory committee process.
“The new RFP needs to be developed in a timely fashion but cannot be done with such speed that crucial aspects go unaddressed. We are over-policed in this city,” Gorman declared. “
Take some of the funding being wasted on the south side and please shift it towards more preventative measures.
Former Board of Education President Mussab Ali also asked for “Justice for Drew” and questioned if his family was involved in the process.
“Don’t you at least owe it to the family to listen to them and get their approval? What kind of program operates at some times on some days?” he questioned.
Ali also stood with others who called for a ceasefire in the war between Israel and Hamas Palestinians in the Gaza Strip.
Hudson County Democratic Socialists of America’s Issac Jimenez echoed that sentiment before adding: “I’m also doubting the competitive element. We need to stop putting bullets in our young men.”
“Vote this down. We absolutely need a brand-new RFP. What was put out by the Health and Human Services (HHS) Department was not sufficient,” Gina Davison claimed, calling for 24/7 service and 500 hours of training.
Activist Edward Perkins was critical of the resolution as well.
“His family called Jersey City Medical Center repeatedly. They were unable to respond. One time, Drew’s family had to wait 6 hours for Jersey City Medical Center to respond,” he said, noting that the contract would still be handled by the JCMC.
“We’ve looked at that Public Safety budget and it’s $208 million and for what? They can’t stop a shooting … or fentanyl. We definitely want an advisory board. We’re not going to be silent. Remember the resolution for the CCRB (Civilian Control Review Board) also. We want you to drag Shea back here also. We want to meet with you.”
Board of Education Trustee Younass Barkouch said the responsibility to provide this service falls on the council and agreed that the Public Safety Department should cover the costs. He also called for a ceasefire in Israel.
“You should call for the resignation of the director [Shea.] He’s clearly incompetent,” Jim Legge exclaimed at the podium.
“Justice for Drew. Thank you for revisiting the idea of mental health responder plan. No family should have to fear that a call for help will result in a loved one’s death,” activist Elena Little said.
However, she also considered the RFP to be inadequate, also citing an issue with the hours they would be on call.
“It’s extremely important for us to understand that the service is vital. Just listening to the representative from the medical center, there’s no cohesion. It’s just so much lack of communication, lack of dialogue. I feel for the community. I’m urging my colleagues to reject the bid as well,” Ward F Councilman Frank “Educational” Gilmore declared.
He was the one who initially asked for the vote on the contract to be delayed last month.

Andreas Lier, Managing Director at BASF Romania & President of AHK Romania, is set to become a speaker at the upcoming edition of Business Review’s Foreign Investors Summit. He will be part of panel dedicated to German investors in Romania titled “Building up Romanian Industry for centuries.” The session will start at 1:45 PM, after the opening keynote speech of the German Ambassador in Romania, H.E. Dr. Peer Gebauer. Claim your FREE VIP invitation and join an entire community of foreign investors, C-level executives and top business professionals.
After finishing his university studies with a degree in economics Lier got a job at BASF in Germany. Four years later, he took over as director General Manager in Russia for the same company. Subsequently, Andreas Lier held various management tasks for BASF worldwide, including in South Africa, Middle East, China, Eastern Europe. From 2012 to June 2019 he was general manager BASF Ukraine, after which he was appointed General Manager of BASF in Romania and subsequently also in Bulgaria.
“With full responsibility for Romania, I work closely with regional organisations and global associations, divisions and stakeholders, creating opportunities for further market development and enhancing the success of Romanian customers.” Andreas Lier says.
Andreas Lier also reminds us that the lack of financial means is often one important reason why individual ideas never get materialized and points out that BASF wants to support in this respect start-ups and innovators. “Postulates of the Green Deal are rather broad so we believe that numerous innovators will recognize that precisely their idea matches the project aims. Whether we are talking about solar energy and continuous discharge rating (CDR) batteries, smart transportation, or the most affordable and healthiest ways to produce food, BASF will give financial aid to support the development of the best idea”, pointed out Andreas Lier.
Among the achievements of AHK Romania’s 20 years of activity is the fact that Germany is now Romania’s main economic partner, with trade worth 35 billion euros. EUR and investments of 11 bn. EUR 11 billion, according to AHK Romania President Andreas Lier. He listed the main areas on which AHK focuses its activity: vocational training; sustainability, i.e. energy efficiency, renewable energies, waste management, city development; the Court of Arbitration, as an alternative to the usual judicial procedure; innovation. In the complicated global economic context, Andreas Lier looks optimistically to the future, taking as his trump cards people, successful companies and the energy vector (both green and fossil): “Let’s play our cards together for a strong Romania in a strong and progressive Europe,” he urged. | [

The San Luis Obispo County Sheriff’s office were called in after discovering that the lumbering animal had become separated from its group and was sitting atop a hill alongside Highway 1 in the coastal Californian city, as the San Luis Obispo Tribune reported.
After blocking off the road, deputies called in experts from California Fish and Wildlife and the Marine Mammal Center, who coaxed the massive animal down using large red paddles to grab its attention. Eventually, the elephant seal was reunited with the rest of its crew, lounging in the sand and along the water near San Simeon.
The Marine Mammal Center said the animal likely lost a fight with an older bull and wandered off to lick its wounds before getting lost.
The video of deputies helping guide the elephant seal to safety was posted to the sheriff’s office’s Facebook page and was shared more than 2,000 times in less than 24 hours.
Along with the video, the sheriff’s office shared a caption shedding some light on the day-to-day activities of their deputies.
“You never know what your day will look like when you put on your uniform,” it read. “Today it was one of our local elephant seals that needed help finding his way home!” | [

Between the 2000 census and last year’s census, the 18-to-34- year- old population in the St. Louis region grew by 28,365.
Like all shifts and growth spurts, it did not occur equally throughout the city of St. Louis and the surrounding seven counties. East-West Gateway’s December Map of the Month shows the changes in that age cohort in its monthly map. Strong increases in population were seen in the city’s central corridor, from downtown through the Central West End, as well as in the Soulard neighborhood. Increases were also seen in south St. Louis County, western St. Charles County, the vicinity of Union in Franklin County. Other growth areas were | [

Does Location Influence Accident Risk?
According to the Utah Department of Health, only 5 of the 29 recognized counties in the state are considered “urban,” with the others being classified as rural or frontier. These distinctions are based on population density: urban has greater than 100 people per square mile, rural has less than 99, and frontier has less than 6. Overall, urban counties make up about 80% of the state’s population.
However, it may be surprising to learn that just because urban areas have higher populations does not mean that crash severity will be greater. In fact, the likelihood that you will sustain fatal injuries in a crash dramatically increases in rural areas**.
Rural vs. Urban Crashes
The Utah Department of Public Safety (UDPS) released crash summaries in 2006, 2013, and 2018 showing how these rates have changed over time. In each, urban areas had significantly higher overall crash rates, but rural areas had higher rates of fatal crashes. While the number of fatal crashes is nearly equal, it’s important to acknowledge what this means when compared to overall crash rates. As of 2018, rural crashes were 2.8 times more likely to be fatal (although this has decreased from 3.5 in 2006).
Why Are Fatal Crashes More Common in Rural Areas?
There are several reasons why rural areas may experience higher rates of fatal crashes. For starters, the terrain and increased wildlife presence causes unique hazards on the roadways that aren’t as common in more urbanized counties. Along with this, drivers and passengers in rural areas are 3.4 times more likely to not be using a safety restraint at the time of the crash. According to the UDPS, unrestrained vehicle occupants are nearly 14 times more likely to be fatally injured.
Another aspect to consider is access to emergency medical services. A 2017 study found that with longer emergency response times comes a higher chance that someone will die in a car accident. It went further to show that the median wait time from when 911 is called to someone arriving on the scene may more than double in a rural setting.

This application is a Continuation-In-Part of my patent application Ser. No. 385,330 filed June 4, 1982 and the contents therein contained are incorporated by reference herein.
This invention relates to power generation through a wind machine. In particular the invention is directed to regulating the rotation of a wind responsive rotor of a wind machine during its normal operating phase and during startup and during wind overspeed conditions.
Among the many problems associated with power generation from wind is the difficulty encountered by variable wind conditions which results in a mechanical output from the wind rotor also being variable thereby making it difficult to obtain useful conversion of the mechanical energy into an electrical generator.
Many solutions have been suggested to overcome this problem including the provision of a variable pitch wind rotor whereby the pitch of the rotor will vary according to changes in wind speed. Mechanical and electrical arrangements to effect this variability, however are complicated, and thus it is preferable to employ a fixed pitch rotor.
Another manner of overcoming the variability of the wind speed has been suggested in the feeding of the mechanically generated energy from the rotor to the electrical generator through a hydraulic system which has the ability to accumulate energy and to subsequently release it.
These problems were realized and have been sought to be resolved in the systems for instance in U.S. Pat. No. 4,280,061 (Lawson-Tancred) and U.S. Pat. No. 4,274,010 (Lawson-Tancred). In the systems of both of these patents, however, there is still omitted the major need of providing a simple manner for conveying the hydraulic power effectively to the electric generator. Both these patents propose multiple pumps in the hydraulic feed line from the rotor with one or more, but not all, of the pumps being bypassed from the system as the rotor speed changes, without direct consideration of the wind speed. Additionally in U.S. Pat. No. 4,274,010 an accumulator piston cylinder arrangement is provided downstream of the multiple pumps for effectively accumulating and releasing energy. The output from the pumps is at a variable pressure and, therefore, of necessity, complex and multiple additional equipment is provided to ensure that the hydraulic power transmitted to turn the generator can be beneficially utilized. For instance in U.S. Pat. No. 4,280,061, a variable angle swash plate motor is used downstream of the multiple pumps associated with the rotor and receives the variable pressure hydraulic output from the multiple pumps to effect this transition of power. Multiple control systems are used to regulate the operation of the multiple pumps, the piston and cylinder accumulator, and the variable hydraulic motor. Additionally the pump means employed require relatively complex constructions, and by-passing of unneeded pumps necessitates an overall design and expense requirement for such multiple pumps which should be avoided.
Another earlier attempt at trying to resolve these problems is disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 2,539,862 (Rushing), and this system also employed hydraulic accumulators for storing energy and means for electromagnetically engaging different numbers of different sized pumps.
Inherently these systems only go part of the way to providing a practical, economical and viable means for utilizing the variable wind power on the rotor.
Consideration, has to the Applicant's knowledge not provided effective means for starting a fixed pitch rotor and for controlling the rotor in overspeed wind conditions which can result in destruction of the wind machine, and which is obviously essential to solve and thereby provide an overall efficient wind power generating system under all wind conditions.
There is accordingly a need for regulating the rotation of a rotor of a wind machine and for providing from a coupled pump a substantially constant hydraulic pressure which can be simply transmitted to a hydraulic system for, in turn, activating the hydraulic to mechanical energy conversion associated with a generator. Energy accumulation should be unnecessary. There is also a need to ensure effective starting of a wind machine and to provide means to brake the rotor of a wind machine during overspeed wind conditions.
The invention provides a multi-stage pump with intake and discharge means respectively connected to the intake fluid line and discharge fluid line so | [

It is only fitting that our very first podcast be with the biggest brUTE in the game, Tommy Hackenbruck. Tommy has been one of my best friends and mentors over the last several years. We have won the Crossfit Games together twice. We have done Sealfit together. We have gone through a lot.
The most impressive thing about Tommy is his mental game. The best example I can give of how tough this dude is is my experience with him at Sealfit. There are future Navy Seals in every Kokoro camp class. There were nearly 10 Games athletes. He blew everyone out of the water. Was he in pain? Yes. Did he show it? Not in the least.
I finally got to sit down on camera with him and ask him exactly what led to his mental toughness. We talked about steroid use in Crossfit and his experience at the Games as an individual vs. a team. | [

The recent collapse of the A1 GP series, has motivated Narain Karthikeyan to check out other racing options. The ex-F1 driver participated in the NASCAR ARCA series test which was scheduled from December 18-20 in Florida. On the first day of the ARCA series test he drove for the Starbeast Motorsports team. Narain also revealed that a line up of options are there for 2010 with the most significant among them being NASCAR.
The Times Of India newspaper carried quite a few quotes given by the Fastest Indian in its edition dated 24th December. Narain commented that it is a whole new ball game out there and he was lucky enough to be invited for a few sessions. He said that NASCAR racing is pure, more basic with its oval tracks and inclined speedways. It was a new experience for him in driving heavier cars with spotters speaking to you all the time.
Speaking about the collapse of A1 GP series, Narain said that the financial downturn has caused havoc but if it survives he will be there next year. According to him it is a great series with a lot of competition. Narain frankly admitted that if things remain the way they are then he will have to sit down and discuss the future course of actions.
Narain Karthikeyan is the only Indian driver to have raced in Formula One. His F1 drive with Jordan team lasted for an entire season after which he started driving for the Indian AIGP team. The future existence of A1GP looks doubtful as it currently faces a ‘pull out’ threat from its sole engine supplier Ferrari. This year he participated in quite a few Le Mans series races driving for the Kolles Audi team.

In this video tutorial, viewers learn how to prevent slice shots in golf. Slice shots are when the ball curves in the shape of a banana. A mistake that people make when they swing is that they drag their hands to far in front of the golf head, causing a slice shot. It also releases the head of the club too late and turn the club into another direction. The correct way is to swing and hit the ball at a straight line from the left shoulder to the club. This video will benefit those viewers who enjoy playing golf and would like to learn how to prevent slice shots. | [

Options for Water-Holding Lawns
Q: Can you give me ways to decrease water holding in my back lawn? Water comes from a small hill on the side of my house. Might a rain garden help soak up some of the water?
A: If your lawn has a wet area, grass won’t tolerate it. One option is to slightly excavate the area, to concentrate the water, then install plants that tolerate wet feet. I have lots of details on rain gardens, including a list of plants for damp soil and a rain garden manual at http://www.walterreeves.com/landscaping/rain-garden-designing/. | [

The Kingsmen conclude their two-part discussion on Avengers : Endgame in their first season finale. Taking the approach of looking at one meta-theme of the entire film, the topic focuses on the idea of Resurrection arguing that Antman returning back from Thanos’ snap is—in a way—a kind of resurrection. And since the capstone of the Christian faith is the historical moment when Jesus rose from death to life, we explore in what ways Endgame conveys the results of resurrection and its significance.

In many ways, the Marvel Cinematic Universe is the current culture and society’s mythology. And similar to how Inkling authors like C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien approached mythologies, the Kingsmen approach this the Marvel mythology with the question, “What in this story is true?”

I believe that the practice of chamber music should be made mandatory for all pianists. In quartet it is wonderful, and I was immediately in love with it, so much so that I made it my reason for living. I do not think there is a more beautiful, difficult and perfect ensemble of the string quartet. As Luciano Berio says, not only is it the symbol of western musical civilization, but also “a school of democracy that everyone should have attended”. Playing for me in quartet was the natural landing for my “desire for music”: I just needed to find three other fellows with the same ideal and, fortunately, I found them already at school (we have been together for over 35 years. I think it’s a record!). Playing in the quartet is very simple and very difficult at the same time, and the first thing you must do is always take a step back. Then you come to know how to listen, to follow in a natural way, to shape your idea by forging it with that of the other three, to have respect for the will of others, to try to assemble your sound with their sound, their intonation, their vibrato to the service of a commen purpose. You must dedicate yourself exclusively to this activity neglecting and leaving other things and … without ever thinking about money! In the end, you must have a great passion and a great spirit of sacrifice. The personal qualities are not enough: it’s a unique quality that has to come out … a four-person wedding and a unique instrument with sixteen strings … I see many guys who are dedicated to the quartet today and this fills me with joy, because only knowing that a musician tries to devote himself to the quartet gives me a sense of great respect. I must say it is very easy to start, there is enthusiasm, desire to play, infinite musical beauty … then there are the problems of music and nature. So, if you are not supported by two basic things, passion and spirit of sacrifice, sooner or later you will stop. For this reason, as I said before, we must always be able to take a step back in our decisions in favor of a common good. Finally, for the orchestra, I have to say that I do not have enough experience to be able to give any advice, but what I heard playing at La Fenice in these short periods of my youth has thrilled me, introduced me to the world of Opera and made me love this world. I think working with singers is one of the most important experiences: when you are lucky enough to meet a high quality singer, you have the opportunity to learn a lot. In my short experience it was when I could admire the soprano Leyla Gencer. Being able to hear those wonderful sounds was a very informative moment. But I always refused the idea of playing in an orchestra that did not have an important quality. Wasting years of studying and becoming a sort of music clerk was not in my expectations. I never liked the approssimation in music and I learned to never underestimate even the simplest theme and the one you know best, so I always looked for a preparation that would give me the opportunity to play so as I wanted to play and I always had studied the parts a lot, but this was not very common at all … I have always wanted to be in charge of what I was playing and I always tried to prepare to play it. At the time there were many orchestras that did not have this quality, and this prevented me even just being able to stay inside. Today the level is much higher in general, because there are many talented and talented young people who have given quality boost to many orchestras. I think being able to play a cycle of Beethoven’s Symphonies could be the dream of every musician, and I miss other great symphonic masterpieces, but in your live you can not have everything …
In your professional activity, have you got more satisfaction in playing or in listening to any of your good pupils?
They are two completely different experiences and one does not exclude the other. Playing a great masterpiece with my quartet gives me a joy and a great satisfaction, because it is the realization of my dream as a young artist. But I had many talented students and when I listened to them in concert (for example some soloists with the orchestra) I have always experienced a natural pride and a paternal emotion, but it is a different satisfaction from what you feel when your fingers give life to music … Very often I get very excited to hear a student of mine, because I see myself in him in many things. So I try to take off my teacher dress (not to fall into the error of listening with the critical ear) and I simply enjoy the moment.
If you were asked to organize a concert for elementary school children to present the cello, what would you play?
I would like to try to present the cello in the easiest way for children, without talking too much and | [

Changes in the cyclotron line energy on short and long timescales in V 0332+53
Institut für Astronomie und Astrophysik, Universität Tübingen,
2 Space Research Institute, Profsouznaya 84/32, 117997 Moscow, Russia
Accepted: 18 December 2017
We present the results of the pulse-amplitude-resolved spectroscopy of the accreting pulsar V 0332+53 using the NuSTAR observations of the source in 2015 and 2016. We investigate the dependence of the energy of the cyclotron resonant scattering feature (CRSF) as a function of X-ray luminosity on timescales comparable with the spin period of the pulsar within individual observations, and the behavior on longer timescales within and between the two observed outbursts. We confirm that in both cases the CRSF energy is negatively correlated with flux at luminosities higher than the critical luminosity and is positively correlated at lower luminosities. We also confirm the recently reported gradual decrease in the line energy during the giant outburst in 2015. Using the NuSTAR data, we find that this decrease was consistent with a linear decay throughout most of the outburst, and flattened or even reversed at the end of the 2015 outburst, approximately simultaneously with the transition to the subcritical regime. We also confirm that by the following outburst in 2016 the line energy rebounded to previous values. The observed behavior of the CRSF energy with time is discussed in terms of changes in the geometry of the CRSF forming region caused by changes in the effective magnetospheric radius.

Emilia Clarke is another surprise character that seemed to come out of nowhere and simply mystified people at the same time she was enchanting them. Since her meteoric rise, and it’s been just that without a doubt, she’s become something of a media icon and someone that you can’t help looking at whenever she shows up since she is quite lovely and in some ways very alluring. The roles she’s taken on during her career thus far have been quite diverse if you really look at them since in Game of Thrones her character has taken on a startling transition from being a weak young woman to a queen that doesn’t accept any nonsense from anyone. But throughout her time in the spotlight at this point she’s been overwhelmingly positive in the way she’s been seen and the impact she’s had on the industry.
Here are a few things you might not have known about Emilia. | [

Extreme Wave Events
Results of a 1:10 scale physical model were used to determine the horizontal and vertical pressure distributions on an elevated structure for nonimpulsive wave conditions. These experimental pressure distributions at the time of the maximum force for nonbreaking waves were extracted for a range of structural air gap conditions and compared with pressure distributions defined by the equations of Goda (2010) and Wiebe et al. (2014). Predicted forces were generally conservative compared to measured mean or significant forces due to regular or irregular waves. A simple equation to determine the vertical force based on the bottom-most horizontal pressure was developed. | [
