There are so many grooming and beauty details to remember for weddings, but one element you simply cannot overlook is your wedding nails! Nail color and art is extremely trendy right now in the world of fashion and it has carried over into wedding and bridal style, too. Whether you are the bride, a bridesmaid, or simply an honored guest, here are some of our tips to achieve the perfect modern nail look for your event.
Bridesmaids usually have more freedom in the nail color department. We love seeing bridal party nails that match the color scheme, like shown above. If the bridesmaids have matching dresses, you may consider matching nail color, too, so the overall look is consistent. Don’t be afraid to go bold; it often looks really fun and makes for great photos!

Brides, please, step away from the french tips! You can achieve an elegant and classic bridal nail look by wearing a nude or pastel shade that complements your skin tone and wedding color palette. If you want to spice things up a little, add a light glitter gradient or accent nail. Keep in mind that less is more; you want all eyes on you, not your fingers!
As a wedding guest, you should avoid wearing colors that call for too much attention. It’s all about the bride, after all! Instead, wear classic reds, pinks, nudes, or dark formal colors. If you would wear it to a formal dinner party, you are safe to wear it to the wedding. Keep in mind that these rules are flexible depending on the theme, time, place, and overall feel of the event. | [

A Peek Inside Siquieros Paintings Ideas 15 Pictures - Complete Art Paintings Collection and Gallery Information | The Picassos
Good day, now I want to share about siquieros paintings. Use this opportunity to see some photos to find brilliant ideas, look at the picture, these are amazing images. We like them, maybe you were too. Many oil painting artist love spending hours daily practicing their craft. As soon as they have been finished with the painting they then will desire their job to be seen and valued. Hundreds will sell their fine art to private people while others will put their work up for display at museums. Today a growing number of oil paintings art which can be showcased on the internet. This offers the many artist more options about the best way to produce their art on the planet to look at. Now in stead of going out to a art gallery, all art lovers of oil paintings could curl up at home and watch all the art paintings they want while online. The artist may also establish a means to have a digital photo gallery in their work stored away in where people may view each time they wish too. When an artist would like to establish a gallery of their paintings on the web there are many things which has to be accomplished. First they need to scan their acrylic paintings after which they will require to choose which art paintings they want to create. The artist will need to upload the graphics of all the paintings they-have selected and decide on a certain price for all these kinds of art.
Therefore to initiate the artist will need to scan all the oil paintings that he / she-will want to put online gallery, thats whether it is not yet formatted digitally. Pictures of these paintings will probably then ought to be used with a top excellent camera. These pictures should be sharp and resized where the paintings themselves may appear. After the pictures are taken of the paintings that the artist subsequently must decide which one of those very best oil paintings to opt to show on the memorial online. The art work that is chosen should be of exactly the exact same quality as those which are displayed in actual galleries of art. When the oil paintings are selected to your gallery then your artist will have to select a digital art site to sponsor the site. Many of those site are known to be more liberated while others will bill a fee. After having a merchant account with a number of those digital memorial internet sites the artist will need to upload each one of the images of those oil paintings. Sometimes that the they need to get re sized into the particular instructions of the site.
The artist may want to submit a short and brief biography which is likely to be written to the digital gallery. The artist may want to help keep the biography professional from adding some simple background info. Matters like what methods and substances were used along with some small announcement that is presented with the artist himself or herself. The artist may want to consider seeing the web site galleries of other artist for some ideas. From there next thing that the artist will require to do is to figure out just how much to charge for all of the acrylic paintings he plans on attempting to sell the art work with. An oil paintings art gallery is the ideal idea for just about any artist who would like to showcase and or sell their own art work. | [

London: John Nourse, 1731.
Botanical print. Copper engraving with hand coloring. Image measures 11.75" x 7.25", sheet measures 18" x 11". Shows some foxing. In very good condition.
Illustration of Lapathum sativum et Patientia; plate 489 from "A Curious Herbal" which depicts exotic plants from the New World used for medicinal purposes.
Elizabeth Blackwell (1707-1758) was trained as an artist but untrained in botany. She collaborated with her botanist husband while he was in debtor's prison and with the curator of the Chelsea Physick Garden where the plants were under cultivation. She engraved the copper printing plates for the 500 images and also hand-colored the illustrations. The financial success of the book led to her husband's release from prison.

There are special DVD sets released by Bob Ross Inc., each with a particular theme (Seascapes, Mountain Vistas, Forests, etc.) and they have multiple uncut episodes on each disc, but aside from those sets it can be very hard to find complete shows online.
Oh, if you're lucky someone will post some episodes and they might remain on YouTube for a few days or even a week or two, but sooner or later the Ross people will catch wind and have them pulled. Now, brief four-or-five-minute clips? No issues. Those are all over the place and you can find them just about anywhere. | [

Review by Internet Nomad
"In the beginning..."
Sonic vs. Mario. The battle has been waged everywhere, from elementary school blacktops to Internet message boards. Sonic was the quick injection of sugar to Mario's full course meal. And what kid doesn't love sugar? It's not a surprise then, that Sonic was holding his own in the 16-bit era, with some daring to tout his games as superior to Mario's adventures. But times have changed, and so has the blue blur that I grew up with. The Sonic Adventure series leaves a decidedly sour taste in the mouth of many a gamer. Sadly, Sonic has fallen from his high pedestal into the depths of mediocrity, but there is still hope for his return to fame and glory...some day. But for now, we will simply revel in his glorious expeditions long past. Dust off your Genesis's, boys and girls, it's time for a blazingly fast trip with the one they call Sonic the Hedgehog.
Dr. Robotnik is kidnapping all of the incredibly cute and fuzzy animals and turning them into robots! He's trying to attain control of the Chaos Emeralds, which will grant him immense power. Only a valiant hedgehog clad in red sneakers is powerful enough to overthrow Robotnik and save the planet. Sonic must traverse six zones, three acts each, to reach Dr. Robotnik's vile laboratory and destroy the demented scientist for good (''for good'' meaning ''until Sega needs to recycle the same plot for the next Sonic game'').
Sonic takes a slightly more logical approach to disposing of enemies than a certain portly plumber. Sonic can't just jump on the head of an enemy and have the foe disperse in a poof of smoke. That ain't the real world, and as the hedgehog's finger-waving shenanigans show, this guy's all about keeping it real. Sonic has to curl up into a ball, using the spikes on his back to slice and dice any creature that stands in his way. That's how real mammals lay the smack down.
Unfortunately, Sonic's defenses leave much to be desired. The guy's a wuss. One hit, and he's done for. Luckily, he's able to harness the power of the golden rings that are strewn about the levels, and withstand any pain the bad guys attempt to dish out. When Sonic takes a hit with at least one ring in his possession, he'll survive, but all of his precious jewelry will be strewn about and he'll have but a few seconds to recover as much as he can. Frantic chaos will ensue when you crash into an enemy and your 100+ rings drop to a count of 0. And when you are attacked with a mere 3 rings, all hell will break loose as you go through any means necessary to grab hold of at least one of them before they vanish. Only the bravest warriors dare to venture far without at least one ring.
At this point, you may be wondering, if Sonic is so content with his natural self (read: naked), why the heck is he wearing those red shoes? A fair question. Sonic's shoes are the key to his speed, and in turn, his cockiness. Sonic can blaze through the world at a blistering pace. He may look a tad pudgy, but that's simply to lure his enemies into a false sense of security. Sonic defines the phrase, ''Smoke 'em,'' and it shows throughout the game.
Level design is a bit less linear than what you'd expect from an early 16-bit platformer. Many of the zones allow for branching paths, though you'll ultimately end up at the same finishing goal. There are also plenty of hidden nooks and crannies that usually lead to an extra life or a useful item. Powerups, hidden in breakable televisions, include a blue orb that serves as a shield, a special pair of sneakers that make Sonic run even faster, the usual invincibility powerup, and rings coming in sets of ten.
Generally, there are two ways to complete a level: take your time and try to collect 100 rings, which will grant you an extra life, or put Sonic's stubby legs to use and try to blow through the level in under a minute. Both methods are fun, though some levels are more apt for speed and others for exploration. While the sequels beat Sonic the Hedgehog in level complexity, this classic set an excellent foundation for later games to improve upon.
What would a platformer be without bonus stages? Sonic's got some trippy ones that can only be accessed if you reach the end of an act with at least 50 rings. In a world seemingly devoid of gravity, Sonic must be maneuvered through a pinball | [

This is our newest product. The H-21 is a heavy helicopter developed by Piasecki Aircraft Corporation. It was developed back in 1946 in the United States. Officially called "WorkHorse" in the United States, it is generally more known for its "flying Banana" nickname.
This helicopter, derived from the smaller and lighter HRP-2, made its first flight on April 11, 1952. In its days it beat several records of altitude and speed. The H-21 was a great military success, because it was a machine of large capacity and an unquestionable reliability.
The main users of this machine were US Army, US Navy, Germany, France (Army and National Marine), Japan and Sweden. | [

Introduction: Floating Arm Trebuchet
A f2k trebuchet has an arm that rides on wheels, which roll forward on rails, while the weight bar running through the arm falls down in a vertical groove. (Watch plenty of YouTube videos to understand the motion of this design) The wheels start off above the rails, and the arm is initially supported by a second set of wheels (or one wide wheel) on a stationary axle fixed between the two halves of the frame near the rear end of the rails. The wheels on the arm hit the rails and immediately begin rolling forward, and the arm tip moves in an elliptical path.This is supposed to be a very smooth, quiet transition and the actual impact is very low.
Here's a YouTube video of our trebuchet:
This design was for a school ASME (American Society of Mechanical Engineers) Club competition. The parameters for the contest were as follows: Design a trebuchet that launches pumpkins (about basketball size). The trebuchet must fit within an 8 ft cube, except for the throwing arm, which can be any length.
Our design was very stout and held around 720lbs in counterweight, not including the weight bar and arm itself.
We launched pumpkins and bowling balls around 10-15 lbs at distances of 300+ feet.
Caution: This particular design is a very time intensive project (expect 60+ man hours) and requires some metal fabrication, such as cutting, welding, and drilling.
Step 1: Design Phase
SolidWorks was used here, although any CAD software or even a hand sketch would be ok. One advantage of 3D CAD was the ability to make an assembly and ensure a good fit for all the components, as well as smooth motion.
I've uploaded PDF's of the CAD drawings as well as a general schematic diagram for an f2k. Feel free to use them for educational or personal use. NOTE: all CAD modeling was done using student software, for educational purposes.
Using the dimensioned drawings, estimate the amount of materials needed. We spent around $300 in lumber and concrete, and several hundred dollars more on metal shafts, plates, etc. Consider cost and use whatever spare or donated materials you can find.
Try to have all the sizes of your shafts and designs for your trigger and sling release figured out at this stage, as well as how you plan to attach the shafts (welds or flanges, etc).
Consider how much weight you want to use, and size your shafts and frame accordingly. I haven't seen much information on dynamic tuning for the f2k, but we did an estimate of the static loads at the critical points and kept the stresses around 1/4 of the yield strength of the steel.
I'd also advise implementing a metal sheet on the rails, instead of bare wood. it's smoother, faster, and prevents grooves from wearing in the wood. We'd have done much better with something like this. Angle iron or steel sheet would work.
A few things to keep in mind are the optimum ratio for the arm length (2:1), or L=3P in the schematic diagram. You want to keep the width relatively narrow, but wide enough to accommodate whatever projectiles you plan to use.
-Lumber (4x4, 2x4, plywood)
-Deck Screws (lots of them)
-Carriage bolts, nuts, washers
-all thread, 1/2", 1ft sections (for sling pins)
-Harmonic Balancers ~7" dia (4X)
-Steel Shafts, various diameters
-Steel pipe, appropriate mating diameters to shafts
-Bolts for bushings
-Concrete (450+ lbs) and circular forms (OR just use gym weights)
-Steel chain, 1900lb test, 3-4ft
-Door latch mechanism from a car
-Nylon rope (or other strong rope/cable)
-Nylon webbing for sling
Step 2: Building Phase: Frame and Base
Here, we followed the dimensions on the drawing and cut very precisely.
Build a good study base using 2x4 and plywood. Try to make it as flat and planar as possible, as this will minimize the need for adjustments later. Also, get the most straight lumber available for the longer pieces on the frame.
The frame is made of 4x4 held together with deck screws and carriage bolts, and our design allowed for the frame to be removed from the base with bolts only.
Build the frame in two identical halves (left and right) and then attach each half to the frame. Check the alignment of the rails and ensure they are relatively close.
Keep in mind that the rails should be unobstructed, and the gap where the weight bar will go should be small enough that | [

As we navigate through the 21st century, the demand for smart, sustainable buildings is becoming increasingly paramount. The management of facilities, a seemingly mundane, but utterly crucial aspect of our built environment, has taken a front seat in this drive towards advancement. It forms the backbone of any edifice, ensuring its functionality, safety, and longevity, whilst also facilitating cost-effectiveness and operational efficiency.
However, the rapidly shifting trends and escalating demands for sustainability are urging the field of facilities management to undergo tech-enabled transformations. This evolution, better known as ‘digitisation’, is permeating across all aspects of building maintenance and operations. With the advent of digital technology, facilities management is shedding its traditional cloak and embracing a more technologically advanced attire, one that is optimized, adaptable, and economical.
Enter the realm of Predictive Maintenance, an innovative approach to facilities management that leverages data, analytics, and digital technology to predict, prevent, and manage potential system failures before they occur. In this blog post, we will explore the intricate nuances of predictive maintenance, highlighting its significance and the transformative impact it bears on the realm of building maintenance and operations.
What is predictive maintenance?
Predictive maintenance, often referred to as PdM, is a proactive maintenance strategy that involves continuous monitoring and analysis of equipment during normal operation to detect possible defects and address them before they result in failure. By utilizing advanced sensors and data analytics, this approach enables maintenance teams to predict when equipment failure might occur, allowing them to take preventive actions and perform maintenance tasks at the optimal time.
In the context of buildings, predictive maintenance leverages data from various building systems and components such as HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning), lighting, and security systems. By collecting and analyzing real-time data, building managers can gain valuable insights into the performance and condition of these systems. This data-driven approach enables them to identify potential faults or failures before they happen, ensuring prompt intervention and minimizing the risk of unexpected breakdowns.
Implementing predictive maintenance not only reduces downtime and maintenance costs but also extends the lifespan of building systems and machinery. By proactively addressing issues and performing maintenance tasks based on data-driven predictions, building managers can optimize the efficiency, reliability, and safety of their facilities, ultimately enhancing the overall occupant experience.
How does predictive maintenance work?
Predictive maintenance works by using sensors, machine learning algorithms, and statistical analysis to predict when equipment failure might occur. Here’s a step-by-step overview of how the process typically works:
- Data collection: This is the first and perhaps the most crucial step in predictive maintenance. Sensors attached to various pieces of equipment collect data about their operation. This could include temperature readings, vibrations, pressure levels, or any other relevant metrics.
- Data Processing & analysis: The collected data is then processed and analyzed. This often involves cleaning the data and checking for any anomalies or errors. Once the data is ready, it is analyzed to identify patterns and trends.
- Model development: Using the data, a statistical model or machine learning algorithm is developed. This model is designed to predict future outcomes based on the current data. For instance, it might predict when a piece of equipment is likely to fail based on its current operating conditions.
- Predictions & alerts: The predictive model is used to make predictions about the future state of the equipment. If the model predicts a potential failure, it can send an alert to the maintenance team. This allows them to take action before the problem occurs, such as scheduling maintenance or replacing parts.
- Maintenance actions: Based on the alerts received, the maintenance team performs the necessary actions to prevent the predicted failure. This could involve routine maintenance, part replacement, or even a complete system overhaul if necessary.
- Continuous monitoring & model updating: Predictive maintenance is a continuous process. The system keeps monitoring the equipment and collecting data, which is used to update the predictive model and make it more accurate over time.
In this way, predictive maintenance enables companies to address equipment issues before they become serious problems, reducing downtime, saving money, and improving overall operational efficiency.
Benefits of predictive maintenance in buildings
Predictive maintenance is rapidly becoming the cornerstone of effective building management, offering an abundance of benefits that elevate operational efficiency, reduce costs, and prolong the lifespan of critical infrastructure. Predictive maintenance offers several benefits to building owners and managers, including:
Predictive maintenance offers significant benefits, particularly in terms of cost savings. Unlike traditional reactive maintenance strategies that incur expenses from unplanned downtime, emergency repairs, and potential collateral damage resulting from equipment failure, predictive maintenance helps identify and address issues before they escalate. According to a Deloitte study, this proactive approach can reduce maintenance costs by 12%, improve uptime by 9%, and extend machinery lifespan by 20%. By embracing predictive maintenance, companies can achieve substantial cost reductions while ensuring optimal equipment performance and longevity.

AutroSafe/BU-70 interface module enables transmission of alarm messages (detection zone text) from an AutroSafe panel to BU-70 display units and BU-100/BU-101 parallel operation panels. Converts AutroCom protocols into ASSP protocols.
The AutroSafe BU-70 Interface BSL-337 allows BU-panels (BU-70 display units and BU-100/ BU-101parallel operation panels) in existing BS-100 systems to be interfaced to AutroSafe series fire-detection panels.
The purpose of the BSL-337 interface is to convert data transmitted from AutroSafe, via a RS232 serial connection using the AutroCom protocol, into the proprietary communication protocol ASSP (Autronica Standard Short Protocol for BU-panel communication). The Current Loop/RS232 Converter BSL-12/2 must be used to convert RS232 to 20mA current loop communication.
In a new AutroSafe system installation, old BS-100 control panels can thus be removed, while BU-panels and existing cabling still can be used. Furthermore, using the BS-100 Loop Converter BSD-330 also enables the connection of existing BS-100 loops. This interface solution allows a simple and cost-effective retrofitting with AutroSafe.
A maximum of 16 BU panels can be connected to an AutroCom port. | [

I have been taught about Joseph Smith’s First Vision for as long as I can remember. It’s a story I’ve grown up with and know by heart. That is why I was shocked to hear during lecture of our last class period that Joseph Smith’s first recorded account of the First Vision is actually different than the one we are so familiar with, recorded in the Joseph Smith History. It is true that an individual’s account of an event changes slightly with each retelling, but how could something so important, so true, be at all different?
Learning about the Second Great Awakening helped me gain a new perspective and understanding of Joseph Smith’s First Vision. The Second Great Awakening was an immense religious fervor that swept across the young nation of the United States in the early nineteenth century. As observed by our textbook, this religious movement “stressed the right of private judgment in spiritual matters and the possibility of universal salvation through faith and good works.” The role of the individual in religion was redefined, opening a whole new realm of ideas and possibilities. Especially significant was the growing trend that ministers needn’t attend a prestigious educational institution and earn a degree to preach religion. Any individual had the right to speak and believe as they felt and to establish their own religious and moral universe.
I am in awe of the connection this has to our beliefs. Because of this trend, this time period of religious excitement provided the absolute best possible opportunity for the Restoration of the Gospel. Joseph Smith at this time resided in New York in what came to be known throughout the Second Great Awakening as the “burned-over district.” Joseph Smith was obviously affected by the movement’s emphasis on the right of private judgment in spiritual matters. He had the right to question which of all the churches he was to join.
What I found extremely interesting was his first recorded account of the First Vision. It differs from the account we read in the Joseph Smith History, because we are only told what pertains to us as a church. In addition to receiving an answer to this question, Joseph Smith received personal revelation from the Savior. In the account we are familiar with, we are told Heavenly Father introduced His son, but not told what Christ said to Joseph. That the timing of the Second Great Awakening and the First Vision coincide is definitely not a coincidence. I am so eternally grateful that Joseph Smith felt the need to discover what spiritual beliefs really were right for him and to question. This new perspective provided me with an even greater appreciation of the First Vision. | [

ABSTRACT: CRYRING is a small synchrotron and storage ring equipped with electron cooling. Highly charged ions from the electron beam ion source CRYSIS or singly charged ions from the plasmatron source MINIS are injected via an RFQ into the ring. The facility is in the commissioning phase. Full design energy has been achieved and electron cooling demonstrated both for atomic and molecular ions. The experimental program started in August with two projects, dissociative recombination of H+3 ions and radiative recombination to deuterons. The status as of September 20, 1992, is reported.

i asked a client of mine what they would feel ilike if she had to give a lecture about anxiety to a group of bank professionals. she said that she would be terrified.
i asked her why.
she said that she would feel as if they would question her authority on th e subject.
so i told her that she was an expert in anxiety as a sufferer and that if she was to confidently speak from experience about her situation and be unconcerned about how they would recieve her honesty and emotions that they would learn a tremendous amount about how she lived and that also many of them would recognise, perhaps for the first time, that they weren`t alone in thier anxiety also.
what is the lesson here?
authenticity in feelings and knowing that others are having similar experiences to.
knowing the difference between having to convince others and realising that all it takes is speaking honestly about your own situation. we are all expert in our own stuff.
this is a big part of unconditional love for your self. speaking from your heart. we all recognise the truth when we hear it.
so speak it, | [

The Problem of Sex in 'The Witcher 3'
Unlike the rest of the game's narrative decisions, there is little to no responsibility on the player to consider the consequences of their sexual activities in The Witcher 3.
Sex is a natural part of life, and, thus, it is a natural part of art.
In fact the earliest works of art, like the Venus of Willendorf are sexual in nature. So it really should not be a surprise to anyone, from Jack Thompson to Hillary Clinton, that sex would find its way into a video game. While some video games that contain overt sexuality are lewd in nature, like Leisure Suit Larry, not every game with explicit sexual content is like this. The Mass Effect series, The Witcher series, and the Knights of the Old Republic series all consist of narrative based games that feature sex to varying degrees, but in these games, the sexual content is only one part of a much larger game.
Recently I've been playing through The Witcher 3 while keeping in touch with the community that surrounds it. While I enjoy the game, especially the narrative and gameplay, it unintentionally suggests an unhealthy view of sexuality. Over the course of the game the player-character, Geralt, has the option to have sex with a few women who are part of the plot. Some of these interactions are playful and innocuous, while others involve serious decisions about the nature of the character's long term relationships.
The main decision, which sparks debate between community members, is whether the player prefers one of two women, Triss Merigold or Yennifer of Vengerberg. This binary in and of itself reveals little. The characters look different from one another, talk differently, act differently, but are generally two sides of the same sexually charged coin. The player gets to play out the fantasy of choosing between two beautiful, powerful, and fully fleshed out female characters to sleep with. For some in the community, it would seem this decision in some ways defines the player more than the gameplay style they choose to play or other decisions they make in the game's complex plot.
The problem is that the sex and the lead up to it in the game is unrealistic and deterministic in a way that many choice-based narrative video games are. Sex is treated as a game within itself, where if the player chooses the right quests and dialogue choices, they will then get rewarded with some virtual eye candy. Unlike the rest of the game's narrative decisions, there is little to no responsibility on the player to consider the consequences of their actions when they choose whether or not to have sex.
Therefore, the women in the game are in serious danger, despite being well fleshed out characters, of becoming merely sexual objects for the player to play with. This is a problem in many video games that feature sex from Wolfenstein: The New Order to Grand Theft Auto. Sex becomes just a goal for the player or just a break in between action sequences that doesn't mean anything for the player. While it has some meaning in The Witcher 3, it is ultimately shallow and devoid of any real consequence for the player.
As long as the player is communicating in what are largely predetermined conversations, there is no real “relationship” built between the player and the object of their affection. Without a relationship, sex becomes hollow and meaningless.
Senior Game Manager of The Witcher 3 Damien Monnier has explained why the opening scene of the game features Geralt and Yennifer having sex, saying, “Through sex we have shown that this is a person who Geralt would be compelled to chase after if she went missing,” and that “Sex is the quickest way in which to establish the relationship and provide a justification for the player to pursue this woman.” (Simon Parkin, "Why Sex Matters in Witcher 3, the Grand Theft Auto of Fantasy Games, The Guardian, 28 January 2015).
Basically, Monnier seems to suggest that in the game sex is a tool used to show the player that these characters have a relationship worth fighting for, but this logic does not necessarily hold up in context of the game. The player-character is able to have sex in brothels, with minor characters, and with other major characters. If sex were considered such an intimate and bonding activity between two individuals within the world of the game, it would not be something to be accomplished with half the important female characters that Geralt meets.
Interestingly Monnier claims that “We couldn’t just tell you to go find someone you don’t know or care about. It wouldn’t work.” Which is exactly what most video games do, and it works. In Super Mario Bros. and The Legend of Zelda, the player is off to rescue a princess that they've never met. Now, one could argue that narratively this is not particularly effective, but considering that these games are massively successful and both the princesses in these games are beloved characters | [

Ripples from the Universe
Throughout the universe, violent collisions of cosmic beasts such as black holes wrench the fabric of spacetime, producing ripples called gravitational waves. For most of history, humans have been oblivious to those celestial rumbles. Today, we’ve detected scores of them.
The first came in 2015, when scientists with the Advanced Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory, or LIGO, spotted gravitational waves spawned from the merger of two black holes. That event rattled the bones of the cosmos — shaking the underlying structure of space and time. The detection also stirred up astronomy, providing a new way to observe the universe, and verified a prediction of Albert Einstein’s general theory of relativity.
But like a lone ripple in a vast sea, a single detection can tell scientists only so much. Now, LIGO and its partner observatory Advanced Virgo have collected 50 sets of gravitational waves. Most of these spacetime ripples resulted from two black holes spiraling inward before colliding. Some arose from collisions of dense stellar corpses called neutron stars. Two collisions involve celestial bodies that can’t be confidently identified, hinting that scientists may have spotted the first merger of a neutron star with a black hole.
Scientists have spotted 50 collisions of massive objects out in space. Explore details of these smashups below.

Students can expect to learn the science, physics, computation, imaging, tools, advancements and the leading innovations in Gravitational Waves Measurement, Computational Physics, Relativity to more; and learn how Science, Technology, Signal-Processing, Computation, Innovation and Leadership unites to detect the faintest waves of the weakest force in the Universe.
The Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO) is a large-scale physics experiment and observatory to detect cosmic gravitational waves and to develop gravitational-wave observations as an astronomical tool. Two large observatories were built in the United States with the aim of detecting gravitational waves by laser interferometry. These observatories use mirrors spaced four kilometers apart which are capable of detecting a change of less than one ten-thousandth the charge diameter of a proton.
The initial LIGO observatories were funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) and were conceived, built and are operated by Caltech and MIT. LIGO is the largest and most ambitious project ever funded by the NSF. In 2017, the Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded to Rainer Weiss, Kip Thorne and Barry C. Barish "for decisive contributions to the LIGO detector and the observation of gravitational waves".
US National Science Foundation (NSF)
The National Science Foundation (NSF) is an independent agency of the United States government that supports fundamental research and education in all the non-medical fields of science and engineering. (Its medical counterpart is the National Institutes of Health – another Womanium Partner.) With an annual budget of about US$8.3 billion (fiscal year 2020), the NSF funds approximately 25% of all federally supported basic research conducted by the United States' colleges and universities. In some fields, such as mathematics, computer science, economics, and the social sciences, the NSF is the major source of federal backing.
The NSF's director and deputy director are appointed by the President of the United States and confirmed by the United States Senate.
NASA Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC)
The NASA Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC) is a major NASA space research laboratory located approximately 6.5 miles (10.5 km) northeast of Washington, D.C. in Greenbelt, Maryland, United States. Established on May 1, 1959 as NASA's first space flight center, GSFC employs approximately 10,000 civil servants and contractors. It is one of ten major NASA field centers, named in recognition of American rocket propulsion pioneer Robert H. Goddard.
GSFC is the largest combined organization of scientists and engineers in the United States dedicated to increasing knowledge of the Earth, the Solar System, and the Universe via observations from space. GSFC is a major US laboratory for developing and operating unmanned scientific spacecraft. GSFC conducts scientific investigation, development, manufacturing and operation of space systems, and development of related technologies.
Goddard scientists can develop and support a mission, and Goddard engineers and technicians can design and build the spacecraft for that mission. Goddard scientist John C. Mather shared the 2006 Nobel Prize in Physics for his work on COBE.
GSFC also operates two spaceflight tracking and data acquisition networks (the Space Network and the Near Earth Network), develops and maintains advanced space and Earth science data information | [

Imagine this: you’re lounging on your couch, scrolling through social media, when suddenly your cat launches a surprise attack on your unsuspecting feet. You yank them away, bewildered by your feline’s sudden aggression. Is it just playing? Has it gone mad? What’s going on?
If you’ve ever been baffled by why your cat seems to have an inexplicable obsession with attacking your feet, then fear not. As a cat behavior specialist, I’ve witnessed this conduct countless times and can help you comprehend what’s driving it.
In this post, we’ll explore the most frequent reasons why cats attack feet – from playfulness and attention-seeking to anxiety and fear. We’ll delve into the instincts and habits of our furry friends and uncover the underlying causes of this seemingly bizarre behavior.
But that’s not all. This article will also give you practical tips and techniques to help reduce your cat’s foot-attacking tendencies, promoting a more harmonious bond between you and your four-legged companion.
So whether you’re an experienced cat owner or a first-time pet parent, prepare to plunge into the captivating world of feline actions and find out why your kitty can’t resist a good foot ambush.
Reasons Why Cats Attack Feet
Cats are fascinating creatures, and their playful nature is one of their most endearing qualities. However, when that playfulness turns into aggression, it can be frustrating for owners, especially when it comes to attacking feet. In this article, we’ll explore five reasons why cats may attack feet and how to prevent it.
Cats are hunters by nature, and their predatory instincts can drive them to attack anything that moves. When your feet move quickly or make sudden movements, your cat may perceive them as prey and try to pounce on them. This behavior is more common in younger cats who are still developing their hunting skills.
Boredom and Restlessness
Cats are intelligent animals and need mental and physical stimulation to keep them healthy and happy. If your cat is not getting enough exercise or stimulation, they may become bored and restless. Attacking your feet can be their way of releasing their pent-up energy.
Anxiety or Stress
Cats can become anxious or stressed if they feel threatened or if their territory is being invaded. Attacking feet can be a way for them to assert their dominance and protect their territory. It’s essential to provide a safe and secure environment for your cat to feel comfortable in.
Like humans, cats crave attention, and they will do anything to get it, even if it means biting or scratching your feet. Spending quality time with your cat and providing interactive playtime can help reduce attention-seeking behavior.
Some cats may not have learned appropriate play behavior from their mothers or other cats, leading to play aggression directed at humans. Providing appropriate toys and redirecting their energy towards those toys can help prevent this behavior.
In conclusion, there are several reasons why cats may attack feet, including predatory instincts, boredom and restlessness, anxiety or stress, attention-seeking behavior, and play aggression. Understanding these reasons and providing appropriate outlets for your cat’s energy can help prevent this behavior and foster a stronger bond between you and your feline friend.
Well, it’s all about playfulness.
Cats are natural hunters and love to use their paws to play with prey or toys. When they see their owner’s feet moving under a blanket or dangling from the bed, they may mistake them for prey and pounce on them. However, this behavior can be frustrating and even painful for their owners.
Thankfully, there are ways to satisfy your cat’s playful nature without sacrificing your feet. Interactive toys such as feather wands, laser pointers, and balls can provide your cat with the necessary stimulation to release their energy. By engaging in playtime with your kitty, you can also strengthen your bond and have fun together.
In addition to toys, providing your cat with scratching posts and climbing structures can help reduce the likelihood of them attacking your feet. Cats need to scratch to keep their claws healthy, but providing them with a designated area to do so can also prevent them from scratching furniture – and your feet.
It’s worth noting that not all cases of foot-attacking are caused by playfulness alone. Fear, stress, or territorial aggression can also lead to this behavior. If you notice that your cat’s attacks seem uncharacteristic or aggressive, it’s best to consult with a veterinarian or animal behaviorist for further guidance.
Have you ever experienced the sudden shock of your cat attacking your feet? While it may seem like a playful game to them, it can be quite a painful experience for us humans. So why does this happen? It turns out that boredom might be the culprit.

Cationic silver enhances the rate of cyclobutane pyrimidine dimer formation by increasing intersystem crossing
MetadataShow full item record
Publisher:The Ohio State University
Series/Report no.:The Ohio State University. Department of Biochemistry Honors Theses; 2009
DNA can undergo mutations upon exposure to ultraviolet light; if left unrepaired, these mutations may lead to cancer. Irradiation studies have shown that the primary photoproduct formed between adjacent thymine bases is the cyclobutane pyrimidine dimer. In DNA base multimers, this photoreaction occurs within one picosecond of photoexcitation; if the photoexcited thymine bases are not within a specified geometric conformational threshold at the instant of photoexcitation, dimerization will not occur. However, in the presence of Ag+, the quantum yield of cyclobutane pyrimidine dimer formation increases. Emerging evidence concerning Ag+-DNA complexes suggests that the increased quantum yield is a result of either increased intersystem crossing to form a longer lived triplet state, or DNA aggregation that increases the frequency of two thymine bases being within the conformational threshold during photoexcitation. Ultraviolet C (UVC) steady-state irradiation experiments show that when the ratio of Ag+ to nucleic phosphate (referred to as r in this work) becomes greater than 0.25, the quantum yield of dimerization in (dT)18 increases with increasing Ag+ concentrations. In addition, the quantum yield increases for TMP in the presence of Ag+ (r=10), which suggests that increased intersystem crossing is responsible for this process, as TMP can only dimerize from the 3ππ* state. Finally, circular dichroism (CD) measurements of (dT)18 and various concentrations of Ag+ show that although for r=0, 0.05, 0.10, and 0.25, ∆ε at 275 nm does not change, ∆ε decreases for r = 0.5 and 1.0, indicating that the system is becoming increasingly unstacked, which discredits an aggregation explanation.

We’re not quite sure this is what Lakhdar Boumediene had in mind when he asked the United States Supreme Court to decide whether he and his fellow Guantanamo detainees had the right to challenge their detention in federal court. He won his case in June, but early signs still leave much doubt about the fairness of the government’s handling of these cases.
On Thursday last week, District Court Judge Richard Leon began habeas hearings for six Algerian men who have been held at Guantanamo since 2002. Judge Leon, who was appointed by President George W. Bush, ruled that these men had no right to habeas corpus in 2005, but was overruled by the Supreme Court’s latest decision in Boumediene v. Bush. Forced to reconsider, Judge Leon ruled two weeks ago that only those who directly support hostile acts against the U.S. can be held indefinitely as enemy combatants.
While this definition is certainly more favorable than some of the lax associations used to justify indefinite detainment by the Bush administration, it is still quite broad. As the first few days of the Algerians’ habeas hearing displays, court procedures are still stacked against the accused. As the New York Times reports, the men have not been allowed to attend their own hearing, will not be allowed to hear classified evidence against them, and due to technical problems, could not even hear opening statements by their lawyers.
Call us crazy, but this still sounds like a kangaroo court to us! | [

Thabiti Anyabwile is a pastor at Anacostia River Church in Washington, DC, the author of several books about church leadership, a Council member with The Gospel Coalition and a well-respected figure in the Southern Baptist Convention.
Recently, he sparked a discussion among his followers on Twitter when he looked at the idea of reparations.
The concept is essentially that descendants of slaves brought to what is now the United States should be given a form a payment. It’s an idea that has recently been a part of the national dialogue with Senator Elizabeth Warren, a 2020 presidential hopeful, telling The Wall Street Journal, “We need a national, full-blown conversation about reparations.”
In a thread on Twitter, Anyabwile said, “I’m sad for folks who hear the word ‘reparations,’ w/o any specific proposal attached, who start exclaiming, ‘Blacks just want to steal whites’ money!’ It’s a retort that reveals possible idolization of mammon and willful blindness to 250 years of stealing Black ppl themselves.”
Anyabwile went on to explain the hypocrisy of some opposition to the idea: “And the hypocrisy of some self-professed ‘conservatives’ who argue all day long that a person should be able to control their labor but who do not think any recompense is owed for CENTURIES of stolen labor is mind-blowing. It’s a glaring inconsistency.”
He continued, “Then there are those who rush to tell us, ‘Reparations won’t bring reconciliation and will only further the divide.’ What omniscience! And as if the burying of our heads, refusing to acknowledge wrongdoing, and gospel escapism the church has been practicing is healing the divide. There are so many excuses tossed about and rejections even before an actual idea is offered that there appear to be strongholds at work,” he wrote. “Perhaps the strategy should be to go back to some basic questions: 1. Was a wrong committed? 2. Is it right to right the wrong?”
Anyabwile challenged Christians to think critically about the issue.
“Those are admittedly basic questions but it seems to be where a few Christians are stuck,” he said. “If a *Christian* cannot answer an unequivocal ‘yes’ to those questions then far more than debate about reparations is going on. More serious soul work is needed. And if we cannot bear to entertain a third basic question—3. What does God in His word require of me to right the wrong?—then, as I said, I’m sad for those Christians. These are the ABCs of moral reasoning. Nothing fancy. But is costly to follow Jesus. That’s cross carrying.”
Anyabwile said that the issue isn’t one only about money, but also about addressing a moral wrong.
“In the final analysis I want something much more profound than the country’s money,” he said. “I want its moral and spiritual rectitude. I want Christians to follow the Way more fully with a glad heart. I want your freedom from guilt—both historical and where applicable personal.”
Ultimately he said, it is a spiritual issue.
“The stronghold says you can’t have these things or the cost is too high or the task too difficult or it’s unfair,” Anyabwile said. “But where does that reasoning come from when the topic is pursuing righteousness? Hint: it does not come from God or His word. It’s the world, the flesh or the devil. I would have you walk in victory over the enemies Christ has defeated. I would have you walk in that faith which is our victory. I would have you walk in the obedience that comes from faith. But I would not coddle you. Following Jesus is costly. It’ll cost more than your money.”

MCGILL (CAN)—Chemists have discovered that a technique known as photoacoustic infrared spectroscopy could help identify the composition of pigments used in artwork that is decades or even centuries old.
Details of the work are reported in the journal Spectrochimica Acta Part A: Molecular and Biomolecular Spectroscopy.
The technique is based on Alexander Graham Bell’s 1880 discovery that showed solids could emit sounds when exposed to sunlight, infrared radiation, or ultraviolet radiation.
“The chemical composition of pigments is important to know, because it enables museums and restorers to know how the paints will react to sunlight and temperature changes,” explains Ian Butler, lead researcher and chemistry professor at McGill University.
Advances in mathematics and computers have enabled chemists to apply the phenomenon to various materials, but Butler’s team is the first to use it to analyze typical inorganic pigments that most artists use.
The researchers have classified 12 historically prominent pigments by the infrared spectra they exhibit—in other words, the range of noises those pigments produce. They hope the technique will be used to establish a pigment database.
“Once such a database has been established, the technique may become routine in the arsenal of art forensic laboratories,” Butler says.
The next steps will be to identify partners interested in developing standard practices that would enable this technique to be used with artwork.
The research was supported by the National Science and Engineering Research Council of Canada.

Today Woody Allen's lawyer and publicist released separate statements responding to his adoptive daughter Dylan Farrow's claims of sexual abuse. The statements — which, in a sure coincidence, were sent out as the world mourned Philip Seymour Hoffman — lays the blame for Farrow's trauma at the feet of her mother, Allen's estranged ex-partner Mia Farrow.
The statement from attorney Elkan Abramowitz reads:
It is tragic that after 20 years a story engineered by a vengeful lover resurfaces after it was fully vetted and rejected by independent authorities. The one to blame for Dylan's distress is neither Dylan nor Woody Allen.
Allen's publicist chimed in further with this:
Mr. Allen has read the article and found it untrue and disgraceful. He will be responding very soon...At the time, a thorough investigation was conducted by court appointed independent experts. The experts concluded there was no credible evidence of molestation; that Dylan Farrow had an inability to distinguish between fantasy and reality; and that Dylan Farrow had likely been coached by her mother Mia Farrow. No charges were ever filed.

Blacktip reef sharks are fast, pursuit predators that prefer reef fishes, but also feeds on stingrays, crabs, mantis shrimps and other crustaceans, cephalopods, and other mollusks. In the Maldives, this species has been documented feeding cooperatively on small schooling fishes, herding them against the shore and feeding en masse. Feeds heavily on sea snakes in northern Australia. A large individual (1.6 m) was observed attacking a green sea turtle, Chelonia mydas, in North Male’ Atoll, Maldives.

The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) has assessed the Caribbean reef shark as Near Threatened; its population has declined off Belize and Cuba from overfishing and exploitation continues in other regions. They are also threatened by the degradation and destruction of their coral reef habitat. Commercial fishing for this species is prohibited in United States waters. They are protected in the Bahamas due to their significance to ecotourism, as well as in a number of Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) off Brazil and elsewhere. However, enforcement against illegal fishing is lacking in some of these reserves, and many areas in which this species is abundant are not protected.
This species is taken by commercial and artisanal longline and gillnet fisheries throughout its range. It is valued for meat, leather, liver oil and fishmeal. The Caribbean reef shark is the most common shark landed in Colombia (accounting for 39% of the longline catch by occurrence), where it is utilized for its fins, oil and jaws (sold for ornamental purposes). In Belize, this species is mainly caught as bycatch on hook-and-line intended for groupers and snappers; the fins are sold to the lucrative Asian market and the meat sold in Belize, Mexico, and Guatemala to make "panades", a tortilla-like confection. A dedicated shark fishery operated in Belize from the mid-1900s to the early 1990s, until catches of all species saw dramatic declines. The flesh of this species may contain high levels of methylmercury and other heavy metals.

Like all sharks, the blacktip reef shark has exceptional sensory systems. From there keen sense of smell to having the ability to see in low light condition, these adaptation have made them prestige at tracking down there prey. Sharks also have an additional sixth sense where they can sense electromagnetic fields in the water. The ampullae of Lorenzini, located in the snout region, enable a shark to detect its prey without physically seeing it.
The Reef story started 25 years ago when two brothers from Argentina Fernando and Santiago Aguerre acted on an idea to produce high quality, comfortable yet stylish sandals. Inspired by their love of the California lifestyle and surfing culture, the brothers moved to California in the early 80's and found Reef sandals. With a tiny amount of start up capital of $4000 and after lots of hard work Reef is now widely considered to be the number one sandal brand in the world.

Socially, they are mostly loners unless living in a threatening ecosystem. These are the first and the only species of sharks that are known to “sleep” on the ocean floor or within reef caves. It is believed that these sharks are not actually sleeping but merely resting. These sharks have actually been given the nickname “sleeping sharks” because of their habit of lying motionless at the sea bottom. This is a somewhat unusual and unique behavior of these sharks.

Central Moloney Inc. will build its second Florida facility in as many years, but the CEO of the transformer manufacturing company said no jobs would be lost at its Pine Bluff headquarters.
Central Moloney and One Okaloosa Economic Development Council announced Thursday the company would build a 302,000-square-foot facility on 48 acres of the Shoal River Ranch Gigasite in Crestview, north of Destin in Okaloosa County, Fla., becoming the first tenant of the 10,500-acre industrial park. Central Moloney and the Okaloosa County Board of Commissioners also agreed to a three-year purchase option for 10 more acres in order to accommodate future company growth, according to a news release.
The total investment in the new facility is projected at about $50 million, with 350 higher-wage jobs to be created as the company scales to full production.
Central Moloney's Pine Bluff headquarters employs about 600 people, CEO Chris Hart said Saturday. But the company is struggling to fill other positions with those qualified to do the job.
"I simply cannot staff any more than what we've got going on in Pine Bluff," Hart said. "We've committed to growth in Jefferson County. We are expanding our components facility by 20,000 square feet, but we are only fully staffing one shift in Pine Bluff at the transformer operation. [It's] a function of not being able to find people that are qualified to come work for us, and by qualified, I mean showing up for work on time every day and understanding they've got to learn a little bit while we're here."
Nathan Sparks, executive director of One Okaloosa EDC, said his council first connected with Central Moloney in early 2021 and later paid a visit to the Pine Bluff headquarters, adding "it was obvious" the company values people and the communities they call home.
"As they have already proven with their initial investment in Bay County last year, CMI is committed to becoming part of the fabric of northwest Florida," Sparks said. "We enthusiastically welcome them to Okaloosa County."
The new Crestview facility, projected to open within 24 to 36 months after groundbreaking either later this year or early in 2024, will produce single-phase pads, Hart said. In January 2022 Central Moloney invested $20 million into a 140,000-square-foot facility already built at Venture Crossing Enterprise Center in Panama City Beach, 82 miles southeast of Crestview in Bay County, Fla. That facility, Hart said, produces single-phase, pole-mounted transformers and is ramping up production at the moment.
"A large part of the ramp has to do with getting people on, getting them trained," Hart said. "We don't hire transformer builders off the street. We hire good people, and we realize the burden it takes to get those good people trained and to be able to produce at the level of quality that Central Moloney expects of itself and our customers expect of us. It's moving along. We are getting closer to staff one shift there and get that staff trained, ready to rock and roll. We're in good shape and getting ready to ramp up production right now."
The Pine Bluff facility produces single-phase and three-phase pad mounts, power poles, pads and submersibles, Hart said. But he added establishing the two Florida locations allows the 74-year-old company to tap into a labor market Central Moloney is struggling with in Pine Bluff.
It also has not impacted daily production at the headquarters, Hart said, only alleviated a burden to meet customer demands.
"The only way for Central Moloney to grow is going to be by looking outside the borders of Jefferson County," Hart said. "I still continue to beat the drum that I need help from elected officials to do anything we can possibly do to enhance the ability to find people. We've made hundreds of thousands of dollars of commitments in the last two years to beef up [vocational-technical] training in local schools – and I promise you there's more local news of the money we're committing there – but we can't sit back and wait on the community to save us. We think the best direction for us is to tap into a new labor pool." | [

"Spider-Man: No Way Home" star Tom Holland's spidey-sense is spicing up his love life with co-star Zendaya, despite his below average height.
The Queen, who was wearing a brooch to honor Prince Philip, confessed to missing him but felt "his presence" as she prepared for the holiday season.
Darden popped the question on Christmas, just days after the "Too Little Too Late" singer turned 31 earlier this week.
The couple reportedly decided to have a "quiet" holiday with the kids in the Hamptons this year amid the ongoing probe over the fatal "Rust" shooting.
The couple was first spotted together when he accompanied Leakes to her surprise 54th birthday party earlier this month.
She explained that this wasn't exactly the Christmas she had envisioned for her family but that they would be rescheduling their festivities in January.
Jenner has been keeping a low profile since 10 people were tragically killed at the rapper's Astroworld festival in Texas in November.
Bertinelli said that she isn't happy with her body and she isn't sure she ever will be and she's trying to avoid "spiraling to a place of self-loathing."
Rapper Rich the Kid's Manhattan landlord claims he owes nearly $41,000 in back rent.
Witherspoon posted a photo of her 22-year-old daughter Ava and her two sons Deacon, 18, and Tennessee, 9, as they hugged by the family's Christmas tree. | [

A mother who is suing a prestigious London private school has been accused of being the worst kind of pushy parent by 'ranting' at meetings and criticising teachers in an aggressive attempt to push up her children's grades.
A court heard that the woman sent teachers a flood of letters and emails about her children's education - including a complaint when her six-year-old daughter received only 19 out of 20 on her spelling test.
She is also alleged to have filed complaints about trivial issues such as a fight over a glue stick and water bottles being placed too near pupils' shoes.
The mother and her husband, a businessman, are seeking £50,000 in damages from the school in West London, claiming teachers backtracked on a deal to give their children good references after they were withdrawn from the institution.
At a High Court hearing, the school's barrister Jonathan Auburn said that the woman had acted in a 'rude and inappropriate manner - including insisting on interrupting staff when in the middle of meetings, speaking over people, haranguing them, and on occasion screaming at them'.
He added: "She placed oppressive expectations on her children of constant outstanding achievement, and would admonish both child and school if her full expectations were not always met."
The woman, who cannot be identified, allegedly pursued 'trenchant complaints' over unimportant matters, such as bottles of water being positioned too closely to muddy pairs of shoes.
Mr Auburn asked her, 'Do you think - with hindsight - that that was quite a trivial matter?', but she replied: 'It was a matter of hygiene.'
On one occasion, the court heard, the mother complained that her nine-year-old son had been given an A rather than an A+ for a geography project.
"It was good but not good enough," she said, adding that some children who achieved an A+ had failed to include a contents page in their essay.
Mr Auburn asked: "So your child got an A and you wrote in to raise that with the school, to say he should have got an A+, and you don't see anything odd about that?"
She replied: "No."
He told the hearing that the school had no problems with the children themselves, but felt forced to ask the parents to remove them thanks to the adults' 'particularly poor behaviour'.
The parents withdrew their children from the school, which cannot be named for legal reasons, and are now seeking damages for alleged breach of contract as well as an injunction barring the school from discussing them with any other school.
They claim they struck a deal with the school after a'stormy' meeting in which the headmaster promised to provide a good reference to any school the children applied to.
But instead he told another head that the parents had 'harassed' him, the court heard.
Both parents deny behaving unreasonably towards staff, insisting they were doing their utmost to ensure their children's needs were met by teachers.
The hearing continues. | [

Microbiomes the pathway to inner peace and balance
Illness is an option
Historically, the great healing traditions of the work from east to west have alleged:
All disease starts in the gut
These various systems of healing developed protocols for gut health through healthy living. But what is gut health?
Science using breakthrough technology has identified colonies of organisms called Microbiomes that live inside and outside the body responsible for various functions and expression.
These organisms include bacteria, viruses, archaea, fungi and parasites all living in harmony with checks and balances. If anyone of these microbiomes is out of balance it becomes a pathogen.
You have also heard the axiom you are what you eat!
Microbiomes help transform what you eat into nutrients that your body cannot make like B12 or K2 and help breakdown carbs, fats and protein into absorbable nutrients. In the past we have concentrated on just the foods but what about looking at the microbiomes.
I have partnered with the science based company Viome to bring this technology to you.
There is no such thing as universal healthy food. What’s healthy for one person can be inflammatory for another.
Viome is the only company with the technology to detect all of the nutrients and toxins being produced by your microbiome.
Your Unique Gut Microbiome
This specialized technology enables you to understand your unique microbiome at a molecular, biochemical level and make dietary and nutritional changes according to your individual makeup and needs.
Why the microbiome?
The microbiome plays a significant role in human health and disease. Research has shown links between microbiome health and a number of health issues:
- Alzheimer’s Disease
- Heart disease
- Autoimmune disease
- Colorectal cancer, and more
The microbes in your gut produce thousands of chemicals, called metabolites, that affect your overall wellness. Some of these microbial metabolites can be beneficial to our health, such as vitamin B and short chain fatty acids, while others can be detrimental, such as TMAO, which causes coronary artery disease.
ION*Gut Health is a gut-strengthening, brain-boosting mineral supplement sourced from 60-million-year-old soil that naturally supports microbiome balance. The active ingredient, Terrahydrite®, has been shown to support the integrity of tight junctions in the gut lining, even in the face of damage from toxins such as glyphosate.
ION*Gut Health goes beyond other supplements to support your wellbeing at a foundational level. By laying that foundation with ION*Gut Health, you aren’t just supplementing; you’re supporting. | [

The Remington Model 870 is a pump-action shotgun manufactured by Remington Arms Company, LLC. It is widely used by the public for sport shooting, hunting, and self-defense and used by law enforcement and military organizations worldwide.
Mossberg 500 is a series of pump action shotguns manufactured by O.F. Mossberg & Sons. The 500 series comprises widely varying models of hammerless repeaters, all of which share the same basic receiver and action, but differ in bore size, barrel length, choke options, magazine capacity, stock and forearm materials. Model numbers included in the 500 series are the 500, 505, 510, 535, and 590.
A sawed-off shotgun also called a sawn-off shotgun and a short-barreled shotgun (SBS), is a type of shotgun with a shorter gun barrel—typically under 18 inches—and often a shortened or absent stock. Despite the colloquial term, barrels do not, strictly speaking, have to be shortened with a saw. Barrels can be manufactured at shorter lengths as an alternative to traditional, longer barrels. This makes them easier to transport due to their smaller profile and lighter weight. The design also makes the weapon easy to maneuver in cramped spaces, a feature sought by military close quarters combat units, law enforcement SWAT team users, and home defense purposes. With modern pump action/magazine tube shotguns, the shorter barrel limits the magazine capacity of the weapon due to the magazine tube protruding beyond the barrel. Therefore, the magazine tubes are matched in length to the barrel, which causes a reduction in the number of shells that can be held in the magazine tube.
The Winchester Model 1897, also known as the Model 97, M97, or Trench Gun, was a pump-action shotgun with an external hammer and tube magazine manufactured by the Winchester Repeating Arms Company. The Model 1897 was an evolution of the Winchester Model 1893 designed by John Browning. From 1897 until 1957, over one million of these shotguns were produced. The Model 1897 was offered in numerous barrel lengths and grades, chambered in 12 and 16 gauge, and as a solid frame or takedown. The 16-gauge guns had a standard barrel length of 28 inches, while 12-gauge guns were furnished with 30-inch length barrels. Special length barrels could be ordered in lengths as short as 20 inches, and as long as 36 inches. Since the time the Model 1897 was first manufactured it has been used by American soldiers, police departments, and hunters.
The Saiga-12 is a 12-gauge shotgun available in a wide range of configurations, patterned after the Kalashnikov series of rifles and named for the Saiga antelope. Like the Kalashnikov rifle variants, it is a rotating bolt, gas-operated gun that feeds from a box magazine. All Saiga-12 configurations are recognizable as Kalashnikov-pattern guns by the large lever-safety on the right side of the receiver, the optic mounting rail on the left side of the receiver and the large top-mounted dust cover held in place by the rear of the recoil spring assembly.
The Ithaca 37 is a pump-action shotgun made in large numbers for the civilian, military, and police markets. It utilizes a novel combination ejection/loading port on the bottom of the gun which leaves the sides closed to the elements. Since shotshells load and eject from the bottom, operation of the gun is equally convenient for both right and left hand shooters. This makes the gun popular with left-handed shooters. The model 37 is considered one of the most durable and reliable shotguns ever produced.
A punt gun is a type of extremely large shotgun used in the 19th and early 20th centuries for shooting large numbers of waterfowl for commercial harvesting operations. These weapons are characteristically too large for an individual to fire from the shoulder or often carry by themselves, but unlike artillery pieces, punt guns are able to be aimed and fired by a single man from a mount. In this case, the mount is typically a small watercraft. Many early models appear similar to over-sized versions of shoulder weapons of the time with full-length wooden stocks with a normal-sized shoulder stock. Most later variations do away with the full-length stock--especially more modern models--and have mounting hardware fixed to the gun to allow them to be fitted to a pintle.
The Winchester Model 1912 is an internal-hammer, pump-action, shotgun with an external tube magazine. Popularly named the Perfect Repeater at its introduction, it largely set the standard for pump action shotguns over its 51-year high-rate production life. From August 1912 until first discontinued by Winchester in May 1964, nearly two million Model 12 shotguns were produced in various grades and barrel lengths. Initially chambered for 20 gauge only, the 12 and 16 gauge versions came out in 1913, and the 28 gauge version came out in | [

Family Pictures in Las Vegas: Cindy & Mark Wedding Anniversary
Family Pictures in Las Vegas
On April 22nd, 2017, Cindy and Mark celebrated their 40th wedding anniversary. They are a beautiful and compassionate couple with two lovely daughters, Alexis and Shaina. Their beloved daughters wanted to give their parents a special gift. So, they contacted me to arrange a family photo session. It had been a long time since the last time they did one. Of course, I loved the idea of this gift and we quickly arranged the date to take some Family Pictures in Las Vegas. The location we chose was The Smith Center, on Symphony Park Avenue in Las Vegas.
About The Shoot
Alexis and Shaina couldn’t have chosen a better gift for their parent’s wedding anniversary. Everyone was super excited about it! It was a very fun photoshoot with lots of laughs. I always love when people are comfortable and laugh during photo shoots because it makes for some outstanding photos. The family was very easy to work with. This was a unique photo shoot to do. This is because the daughters brought their partners! Therefore, it wasn’t just Cindy and Mark who got photos – Alexis and Shaina got photos with their significant others as well.
I took a variety of photos, some just of Cindy and her daughters, some of Cindy and Mark alone, and of course some with the entire family (both with and without the daughter’s partners). It was really so much fun. In the end, everyone loved the photos! I have a great feeling that I will be working with this family again soon and taking more Family Pictures in Las Vegas for them.
The Las Vegas Family Pictures I take always turn out great. I owe this entirely to the cooperative and fun families that I work with! Without their enthusiasm and excitement, the photos just wouldn’t be the same. Everyone at this shoot was very excited and happy to be there. This definitely shines through in the photos. | [

Developing a robust safety case is a key step in the development of a fusion power reactor for electricity generation. Plans for fusion power reactors are already underway and before nuclear facilities are licensed, they must demonstrate they satisfy several safety objectives involving keeping workers and the public safe and limiting any environmental impact. In this paper the key safety issues relating to fusion power are explored, including the current approach to fusion safety and methods of accident identification. The paper draws on major studies on the safety of fusion power plant concepts and the current work being undertaken for the ITER project. As well as discussing the key safety issues and potential accident scenarios, the paper identifies gaps in current knowledge together with areas for future work, including the establishment of internationally recognised safety standards for fusion power stations. | [

If you’ve been looking for a pet-friendly apartment in Edmonton, we’ve got you covered. There are many dog breeds that fare well in apartments happily. While larger dog breeds typically need more space to roam, there are a multitude of smaller to medium-sized dogs that actually thrive incredibly well in apartments.
Our pets become permanent members of our families, and we know this. At the Nautical Luxury Suites at Summerside, we welcome your furry friends which fall within the guidelines designed to ensure the pets in our buildings are best-suited for apartment life.
What Do Dogs Need To Stay Happy In An Apartment?
Dogs, like us, have a few specific needs to stay happy in an apartment-sized space. It’s important to give our dogs enough space to stretch their legs, play, and relax. Dogs need to feel comfortable in their homes, and here are a few extra tips to keep your dog happy indoors:
Access to outdoor space — Many dogs enjoy the fresh air available to them, and when the weather is nice, try leaving your window open or let them out on the balcony to keep your dogs happy. Most will enjoy going and lazing in the sun! The balconies at the Nautical Luxury Suite at Summerside are large enough to keep your dog happy, with room for their favorite bed outdoors during the warmer months.
A space that’s theirs — Try setting up a little corner indoors that belongs only to them, complete with a bed, favorite toys, with access to food and water. If you’re away from your apartment during the day for work, having a comfortable space for your dogs will mean the world to them and soothe them during your absence, avoiding unnecessary barking and whining.
Create a routine — Having a routine is something your dogs prefer, and helps them immensely when you are consistent. Feeding your dogs at the same time morning and night, ensuring they go for walks every day at the same time, allowing them out for bathroom breaks regularly, are all important factors to keep your indoor dogs happy and reassure them they will be cared for.
Have doggie play dates — Do your neighbors have a dog as well? Try to arrange for some doggie play dates outdoors for your pups! In a neutral setting, dogs thrive together in company and both will enjoy the exercise they get outdoors with each other, as well as the companionship. At the Nautical Luxury Suites at Summerside, we even have a specific dog run set up for your dogs to enjoy the outdoors, complete with a waste bag station.
Patience — No dog is ever going to be completely perfect—no matter how much space they have to live in. When we go away our dogs may fret, and so if your couches end up scratched, or accidents occur (washable puppy pads are a great investment), our dogs need patience from us when they’re experiencing any distress during our absences.
Top Apartment-Friendly Dog Breeds
These dog breeds are particularly adept at living in apartments, due to their size, typical demeanor, and nature by breed.
1. American Eskimo
Notably beautiful, American Eskimo dogs are some of the easiest dogs to train, sociable, and amicably happy in smaller spaces.
2. Miniature Terriers
Of all of the terrier varieties, the miniature terriers such as Yorkshires and Scottish terriers are not only incredibly adorable but devoted and loving dogs who are low maintenance.
3. Bichon Frise
A Bichon Frise is known for its personality and friendly demeanor. These dogs are easy to care for, train, and enjoy apartment life.
4. French Bulldog
Despite the bulldog moniker, the French bulldog is an incredibly affectionate dog who easily adapts to their environment, and rarely barks.
One of the most beautiful dog species, Maltese are common show dogs. Their fur, despite its length, rarely sheds and these friendly dogs love sharing their space with you.
A pug will love unconditionally. These little dogs are the kindest creatures and adapt very easily to apartment living. Note: while you’re cooking, they’ll be hovering, and are quick at grabbing any dropped snacks!

New ideas on gravity would vanquish dark matter
New ideas on gravity predict rotation curves of galaxies without dark matter.
By CHRIS LEE
Jan 18 2017
Throughout the Universe, there are lots of signs that there’s more gravity out there than there is visible matter to produce it. Over the last few decades, physicists have slowly come to the conclusion that it is not the laws of gravity that need to be changed, but rather that a massive particle is responsible for the extra gravity.
Now, it should be pointed out that this is not a whim. The distribution of dark matter describes all manner of gravitational phenomena at all scales, including some really weird things, like the Bullet Cluster. So, understandably, particle physicists and cosmologists get a bit touchy when people say that we should just modify gravity instead.
Erik Verlinde, a Dutch theoretical physicist, doesn’t seem to care. The alternative title to Verlinde’s talk, presented at a conference I’m attending, could be “How to piss off a room full of physicists in under 20 minutes.”
Verlinde is not a crank, and his work is at the heart of a nationally recognized effort to understand the nature of gravity. He recognizes that any modification to gravity has to explain a whole range of phenomena, while also agreeing with general relativity at the right scales. That’s a tall order.
Nevertheless, Verlinde thinks he is on to something.
Gravity as a consequence of quantum information
Now, before I go further, let me hasten to admit my ignorance. If I removed my brain, stomped on it, and put it back in, I would be no more ignorant of Verlinde’s work than I am now. With that disclaimer in place, let’s continue with caution.
His central idea is that gravity is a consequence of information. In particular, gravity is driven by entropy, and entropy is related to available configurations of quantum states and entanglement between particles. All of these ideas were derived in the context of black hole physics. The big struggle was (and still is) to understand how a black hole dealt with quantum states. Could they cross the event horizon without destroying information?
Verlinde’s insight was to see that any particular point in the Universe also has a horizon, given by the distance at which the expansion of the Universe occurs at speeds faster than light’s. That means that some of the same issues that apply to black holes apply anywhere in the Universe. Which means we can use some of the same tools used to examine quantum information and black holes on the Universe as a whole.
When that’s done, gravity naturally emerges.
From the perspective of someone outside of this horizon, the same physics applies. The heavy lifting is to figure out how the view from outside corresponds to the internal gravity. This is exactly what Verlinde has done. The consequence, Verlinde claims, is that there is extra gravity compared to the mass. What’s more, these gravitational contributions naturally occur at just the right scales to explain many phenomena that we explain with dark matter at the moment. | [

Anarkez Leaves Dynamo Eclot
- On Friday, December 1, 2023, Dynamo Eclot announced the departure of Guy "anarkez" Trachtman
- Anarkez is the second player to leave the Czech Counter-Strike team this week
- The news comes just a day after Adam "NEOFRAG" Zouhar also entered free agency
Guy "anarkez" Trachtman
As announced on Friday, December 1, Dynamo Eclot parted ways with its second Counter-Strike player this week. Just one day after Adam "NEOFRAG" Zouhar announced free agency, Dyamo Eclot also parted ways with Israeli CS pro Guy "anarkez "Trachtman.
The recent roster moves come after the Czech CS squad enjoyed success in domestic tournaments. They won Tipsport Prague Cup Fall Finals and the Slovak National Championship. And while Dynamo Eclot haven't found much success in international tournaments, they've proven themselves as one of the top squads in the regional competitions.
Much of the success Dynamo Eclot have accomplished over the last few weeks was thanks to NEOFRAG and anarkez, who were the top-rated players on the roster. Notably, the Israeli sniper averaged a 1.16 performance rating at the Slovak National Championship.
A 10-Month Stint Comes To An End
Anarkez joined Dynamo Eclot in February 2023 after spending over one year with Team Finest. He quickly left a mark in the new team and didn't need long to establish himself as one of the most valuable players on Dynamo Eclot.
With the Czech squad, anarkez has won five tournaments, including Tipsport Cup Prague Spring 2023, Tipsport Cup Bratislava 2023, European Pro League Season 9, Majstrovstvá SR 2023, and Tipsport Cup Prague Fall 2023. At the end of November, he also helped Dynamo Eclot place second at MČR 2023.
Mostly known for his time at Team Secret and Finest, anarkez quickly fit in with the new squad, which he now leaves with an average performance rating of 1.17.
In a Twitter post, anarkez thanked Dynamo Eclot and the opportunity the team gave to him. And while he has yet to reveal which team he'll join, anarkez stated that more news would come soon, hinting that he might've already decided on his future team.

(MENAFN- Jordan News Agency) Amman, Aug 5 (Petra) –– Planning and International Cooperation Minister Imad Fakhoury said Saturday that Jordan is currently seeking to hold a meeting on the sidelines of the 72nd Regular Session of the UN General Assembly, to follow up on the international pledges made at the conferences of London and Brussels on Syria and neighbouring countries.
In a press release, Fakhoury said that the meeting, which will be held upon Jordan's request, aims to follow up on donor countries' fulfillment of their pledges to maintain the momentum of aid, given that most of the aid is usually delivered during the last quarter of the year.
He stressed that the government is following up on the issue with all donor countries and UN organizations, calling on the international community to honour its pledges and realise the targeted amount of support for 2017.
Jordan has presented a report to the UN on its needs within the Jordan Response Plan (JRP) to deal with the repercussions of hosting 1.3 billion Syrian refugees, according to the statement.
With regard to the total foreign aid contracted by Jordan in 2016, Fakhoury said that it amounted to a total of $3.16 billion, of which $2.55 billion was in development aid split up into regular grants of $597.2 million, soft loans of $923.6 million and additional grants worth $1.65 billion to support the JRP (support for the budget and support of host communities and support for refugees).
He said that the additional grants, $1.65 billion, accounted for about 62 per cent of the funding requirements for the same year, which were, according to the plan, $615.1 million additional grants to support Syrian refugees and $646.7 million additional grants to boost the resilience of Syrian refugees host communities, as well as $385 million additional grants to support the Treasury.

Applying Decentralized Renewable Energy in the built environment is a good approach to reduce the CO2 emissions. However this is not without restrictions towards the stability of the energy grid. Using the flexibility within energy generation, distribution infrastructure, renewable energy sources and the built environment is the ultimate sustainable strategy within the Built Environment. However, at the moment this flexibility on building level is still to be defined. The IEA Annex 67 defines this specific flexibility. Our research is aimed at developing, implementing and evaluating process new control strategies for improving the energy interaction within the building, its environment and the energy infrastructure by effectively incorporating the occupants’ needs for health (ventilation) and comfort (heating/cooling). A bottom-up approach, starting from the user up to the Smart Grid, offers new possibilities for using buildings’ energy flexibility to stabilize the electrical grid. New intelligent process control concepts are necessary which make use of the dynamic possibilities offered by Multi Agent Systems in combination with Building Energy Management Systems. Increasing demand for electrical energy use in buildings and the corresponding carbon emissions has further emphasized the need for the implementation of strategies that improve the energy performance of buildings. Demand side management (DSM) strategies, which aim to actively manage user behavior and how appliances consume energy, is a rapidly growing concept with the potential to contribute worthwhile improvement in buildings energy performance. A coordinated distributed demand side management strategy framework for cooling in combination with a battery electrical storage system is presented and implemented in an office buildings in order to test the concept. The results showed that DSM strategies can be applied while maintaining thermal comfort.

In today’s busy world, we want everything at the tip of our fingers. And with the pandemic still looming large, that includes hygiene products.
Traveling and being on-the-go means you may not have access to the products that make you feel really clean. Fortunately, there are companies that manufacture these products in smaller sizes making it easy to include them in your purse or luggage. This article will review these items so you know what you should be taking with you to feel fresh the next time you travel.
6 Popular On the Go Personal Hygiene Trends
A portable bidet is one of the more unusual on the go personal hygiene trends, but apparently there’s a market for them. They work much like any other bidet, but they use a small water bottle as the water source instead of home plumbing. Some are battery powered while others are a simple squeeze bottle, and they are all sure to get you feeling refreshed.
Picture it. You’re going into a big meeting and your anxiety has caused your deodorant to turn south. Fortunately, you’re armed with deodorant wipes. Just head into the restroom, swipe them under your arm, and look forward to conducting the meeting in a cool, calm and collected manner.
Shaving Gel Bars
A can of shaving cream is not easy to carry while traveling. Shaving gel bars, on the other hand, are much easier to pack in luggage. These come in a package similar to deodorant sleeves. Roll up the product, apply to the face and get that smooth shave you need.
Makeup Remover Wipes
Make up remover is another product that can be difficult to travel with. Fortunately, there are companies that manufacture makeup remover wipes. These come in individually wrapped packages. Just rip them open and use them on your face to make sure every trace of makeup is gone. Some wipes are even all-natural and biodegradable, so you can feel confident they won’t be harmful to skin, or the atmosphere.
In this day and age, there are few of us who don’t travel around with a small bottle of hand sanitizer. Include one in your purse or luggage to ensure you are always germ free.
Hydration on the Go
Most of us will want to have our moisturizing beauty creams with us at all times so we can look youthful and dewy, even after a long day of traveling. Derma-E makes a great Hydration on the Go Kit that will keep you looking your best.
The Derma E brand manufactures skin care products created with antioxidants, vitamins, botanicals,and other wholesome ingredients. Their Hydration On the Go Kit includes a serum, cleanser, and day cream that come in a cosmetics bag small enough to store in your purse. Each product contains hyaluronic acid which is a recommended ingredient in fighting wrinkles and signs of age.
If you find yourself running around a lot, a portable bidet and other travel size personal hygiene products are a necessity when it comes to feeling fresh and clean on the go. Which of these can you not leave home without? | [

Southport Skin Cancer Centre is led by fully-accredited Dr Neil Chorley and Dr Donna Armstrong.
Dr Chorley and Dr Armstrong have both completed extensive training and regularly attend ongoing education courses to further their skills and keep up-to-date with new developments. Our dedicated consulting and operating rooms are fully equipped with the latest technology in skin imaging using Dermoscopy and digital image storage for the detection, monitoring and treatment of skin lesions. Dr Chorley and Dr Armstrong are experienced in performing complicated skin cancer surgery using flaps and grafts and have a reputation for providing excellent cosmetic outcomes.
Australia has one of the highest rates of skin cancer in the world, with reports stating that two out of three people will develop some form of skin cancer by the time they are 70.
The most common cause of skin cancer is ultraviolet radiation (sun rays). However, it is important to remember that Skin Cancer can occur anywhere there is skin, whether the sun has reached the area or not. There is no such thing as sun cancer. The intensity of this radiation varies with the time of day and time of year but once the ultraviolet level is over three it will cause mutations in the DNA of our skin cells. The normal response by the body’s immune system to these mutated, cancerous cells is a process called apoptosis. The cell’s components are broken down, the DNA is destroyed, and white blood cells then clean away the shrunken cells.
It is when the balance is disturbed, and the cancer cells are formed quicker than the white blood cells can clean them away, that cancer forms. In the skin, the three most common skin cancers we see are Basel Cell Carcinoma (the most common cancer in humans), Squamous Cell Carcinoma and Melanoma.
Rarer types of skin cancers include Merkel Cell Carcinoma, Sebaceous Carcinoma, Atypical Fibroxanthoma, Microcystic Adenocarcinoma and Angiosarcoma. Skin Cancers are named after the skin cell that mutates and becomes cancerous. Dermoscopy (magnified imaging of the skin) is extremely important in diagnosing all skin cancers and it is essential that any skin doctor be extremely proficient in this skill.
Basal Cell Carcinoma (BCC)
Basal Cell Carcinoma is a skin cancer of the basal skin cell mostly caused by exposure to ultraviolet radiation (sun or welding) but can sometimes be caused by genetics or ingestion of arsenic. This type of skin cancer rarely spreads until very late stages but can spread readily if it grows into the nerves. It is locally destructive and causes cosmetic concerns, especially if on the face. There are sub-types of this cancer that are more aggressive, meaning they grow more rapidly and have large root systems.
Squamous Cell Carcinoma (SCC)
Squamous Cell Carcinoma is a skin cancer of the squamous cell of the skin. This type of skin cancer can spread to other parts of the body, such as lymph nodes. The potential to spread is determined by the thickness of the skin cancer, its location and the grade (differentiation). Areas such as the lips and ears carry a high chance of early spread. It is important that this skin cancer is excised as soon as possible. Sometimes if a SCC is advanced and shows signs of invasion, particularly in small nerves, radiotherapy will be needed to reduce the risk of spread. Lymph nodes spread is very relevant with SCC’s.
Melanoma is a skin cancer of the melanocyte and is a particularly aggressive form of skin cancer. It is totally curable with early diagnosis and excision. Dermoscopy is extremely important in the early diagnosis of melanoma. This skin cancer spreads by all means – in the skin, through the blood vessels, lymphatics and nerves. The thicker the melanoma, the worse the prognosis. A thin melanoma is less than 1mm in depth. This generally carries an extremely good prognosis of cure after appropriate margin excision. A thick melanoma is anything over 1mm in depth. The greater the depth, the more serious the prognosis. There are different types of melanomas based on origin and behaviour. Superficial spreading is the most common type and begins in the superficial layers (epidermis) of the skin before it grows deeper, as opposed to nodular melanoma which arises in the dermis and can progress to a more advanced stage before it is obvious on the skin.
At Southport Skin Cancer Centre, we strongly recommend for all patients to undergo regular skin checks. Having a specially-trained, experienced doctor examine your skin and monitor existing skin lesions at least every twelve months, and more frequently if a high-risk patient, can drastically improve your chances of diagnosing skin cancer early and successfully treating it.

Announcement of Wally Covell’s retirement is like predicting great baseball weather for the first several days of April. It’s a little premature.
In 1995, after seven seasons as head baseball coach at Maine Central Institute, Covell did step down from that position. In 2002 he returned to coaching football at Orono High and baseball at Lawrence High. He is still in both positions.
Playing and teaching athletics is Covell’s vocation and avocation.
Starting in 1947 with the Tri-Corner town team at Greene and continuing with Monmouth Academy,Winthrop American Legion, Lewiston High, 7 Monmouth town team, University of Maine and the Bucksport town team, Covell was a pitcher-infielder-outfielder.
After graduating from Maine in 1955, Covell’s first coaching job was a t Bucksport High where his baseball team won the Hancock County championship.
Over the next four decades, he coached American Legion, high school, college and the Waterville Red Sox and South Portland in the Twilight League.
After Bucksport, Covell coached at Orono for seven years then moved on to Colby College in 1969 as John Winkin’s assistant. When Winkin left to take over the University of Maine’s program, Covell was named head coach in 1975, a post he held until 1984.
“As Athletic Director at Colby, I hired Wally for our baseball and football (assistant to Dick McGee) staff” said Winkin. “I've known him as a fine baseball person for over thirty years.
“To put it simply, Wally Covell has been a steady, excellent, baseball person in various baseball responsibilities in the amateur baseball level, all of which have earned him the highest kind of respect.
After Colby, Covell was an assistant to head coach Dusty Drew at the University of Southern Maine, Salisbury State College (Maryland) and Warren Wilson College (North Carolina) before his appointment at MCI.
Mike Rutherford, baseball coach at Portland High and an outstanding athlete who won the Fitzpatrick Trophy in 1982, was on the first Southern Maine team to win a regional tournament and advance to the world series.
“His passion for the game is at the level it was when I played for him in 1985.” said Rutherford.“ I have had the pleasure to play for John Winkin and Ed Flahery, two of the best coaches Maine has seen. I believe Wally Covell should be included with those two.
Bob Keefe played varsity baseball at Colby 1974 through 1977. Covell was Winkin’s assistant the first year and head coach the last three.
“To this day I consider Wally a mentor and a friend,” said Keefe.“I am always impressed with his passion for the game and his love of coaching, He has had a positive impact on hundreds of young players.
Frank Jordan played on Covell’s first team at Orono High when baseball was revived at the school after being discontinued. Covell was also Jordan’s football and junior varsity basketball coach.
“Coach Covell helped me make it through high school,’ said Jordan.“ Wally helped me make it through Vietnam five years later. I learned more about myself from Coach than from all the rest of the people in my life. I know I owe my life to Coach Covell. | never would have survived my two-year Vietnam experience without Coach Covell as a role model.”
Ron Joseph was a catcher on Waterville’s American Legion team in the late 1960’s. He remembers games and plays “like it was yesterday.’ But playing for Covell included lessons that aren’t included in box scores.
“Every team has mediocre players, said Joseph.“Coach Covell always made them feel an important part of the team by giving them responsibilities during games. He never let them idly melt away on the bench.
“I admire that quality of his coaching more that the fond memory of his teaching me the proper catching and hitting techniques and all the rewards both brought me.” | [

Praise for the Book
"At the very outset, I would like to say that I am very much impressed by what I have seen. I have read the preface and understand the author's purpose and his aims. I admire him for his courage in attempting such a daunting task, and I admire him even more for what appears to me to be a very successful completion of task... The author has show considerable good judgment on which proofs to to include... So, I am very excited over the prospect of this book being made available; it will be a very useful reference both for beginning graduate students, but also for their teachers."
"From the table of contents, it would appear to include just about everything one would want to know about the foundation of analysis. It is well-organized and the exposition in the sample chapters is quite good--clear, concise, and relatively easy to read. It is very good technically; the author knows what he is talking about... A mini-encyclopedia it certainly is... It would be a fine reference book... It is a fine book indeed, written with care by a knowledgeable and thoughtful author."

DNV has initiated or is taking part in various projects revolving around ship automation and autonomous control. The ReVolt project is one example; once all aspects of the autonomous control technology are mature, such a design could possibly be built and deployed as a 100 TEU feeder vessel on fixed routes in coastal waters. A DNV experimental model is used by researchers at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU) in Trondheim to investigate how advanced control systems and navigation software could control an unmanned vessel. “Advances in sensor technology, data analytics and bandwidth to shore are fundamentally changing the way shipping works. And as operations are digitalized, they become more automated,” says Dr Pierre C. Sames, Director of Group Technology & Research at DNV. | [

Add the gluten free all purpose flour into a mixing the color of the baked banana bread is darker than banana bread made with regular flour, but i the most helpful comments are the ones that give useful feedback for others who might make the recipe. Moist, tender and this banana bread recipe, specifically, has no season. Ah, the classic banana bread.
The combination of textures and flavors in this recipe produces a wonderful and perfectly.

Washington beats Buffalo, can clinch division at Philadelphia
LANDOVER, Md. - As Washington Redskins owner Dan Snyder paced nearby, 20 or so of his team's players gathered in the trainer's area off the locker room Sunday, delighted by their own just-completed victory and waiting to find out exactly how big a deal it was.
Left tackle Trent Williams and other Redskins watched the closing seconds of their NFC East rival New York Giants' loss on TV, letting loose a loud celebration - raised arms, fist pumps, yells of "Yes!" - at the end. After last-place finishes in six of the last seven years, Washington is closing in on clinching a playoff berth.
Inspiring a soundtrack of "You like that!" chants in the stands, Kirk Cousins equaled his career high with four touchdown passes and ran 13 yards for another score, helping the Redskins win consecutive games for the first time in more than a year and stay atop the division standings by beating the Buffalo Bills 35-25.
"We had a lot on our hands. Everybody said we couldn't win back-to-back games," said receiver DeSean Jackson, who turned a short throw from Cousins into a 77-yard TD. "So this was the first time in a long time we were able to get accomplished what we wanted to get accomplished."
The Redskins (7-7) can secure a spot in the postseason by winning next Saturday night at the Philadelphia Eagles,
"We still have a dogfight in front of us. And we can't walk before we crawl, put it like that," Williams said. "We've got to focus on the Eagles."
The Bills (6-8) are now assured of missing the playoffs for the 16th year in a row, the longest active drought in the NFL.
"Did it go according to plan? No, not this year," said Rex Ryan, in his first season as Buffalo's coach.
Said defensive end Mario Williams: "Of course there's going to be changes. That's obvious. You just wait and see if your number is called, that's all."
Making Ryan's defense look inept, and aided by a key fourth-down encroachment penalty, the Redskins scored TDs on each of their first three possessions of a game for the first time since September 1999, grabbing a 21-0 lead midway through the second quarter.
Even when Washington made a potentially bad mistake of its own - rookie returner Jamison Crowder fumbled a punt near midfield - Buffalo couldn't take advantage. The Bills drove all the way to Washington's 1, but running back LeSean McCoy got stuffed twice, before Tyrod Taylor overthrew Sammy Watkins by a ton in the end zone on fourth down.
"That was a huge stop," Redskins coach Jay Gruden said.
After Buffalo made it 28-17 with a two-play, 85-yard drive - capped by the first of Taylor's two TD passes to Watkins - the Redskins responded with a 13-play, 80-yard drive. That ended with Cousins' 5-yard TD toss to Pierre Garcon early in the fourth quarter.
Fans repeatedly responded to touchdowns with full-throated serenades of "You like that!" - a reference to what Cousins screamed as he trotted to the locker room after a comeback victory earlier this season.
"I had to turn my headsets up a little bit," Gruden said. "I couldn't hear play calls and all that stuff."
Cousins hit tight end Jordan Reed for a pair of scores in the first half. Jackson spun away from defensive back Corey Graham for his long score in the third quarter.
"I never thought he was Jerry Rice," Ryan said about Jackson. "But I guess I was wrong."
Cousins completed his first nine passes and finished 22-for-28 for 319 yards and no interceptions. It was his sixth 300-yard passing day of the season, a franchise record. | [

Researchers and scientists of UP Resilience Institute, under the office of the President, joined the 13th Special Course on Urban and Regional Planning: A Basic Course in Urban and Regional Planning (SCURP: ABC in URP) of the School of Urban and Regional Planning (SURP) as lecturers last April 20, 2018 at the SURP Building in UP Diliman -- taking into full execution a part of UP RI's 15-point agenda of "Cascading of knowledge on climate change adaptation and disaster risk and vulnerability.."
In the event, Dr. Mahar Lagmay and Ms. Joy Santiago taught the students of SURP the foundations of Climate Change Adaptation and Disaster Risk Reduction and the relationship between the two concepts.
In Dr. Lagmay's lecture on "Climate Change Adaptation: Concepts and Strategies", he clarified the difference between the existence of hazards and facing a disaster. He also emphasized the value of climate change adaptation and its impact in planning and how it affects the tools used in presenting and communicating impending disaster risks.
The second lecture, on the other hand, was about "Disaster Risk Reduction: Concepts and Strategies," Ms. Joy Santiago shared the history of DRR in the Philippines and the different laws that empowered it. Ms. Santiago also equipped the participants with knowledge on the various risk management options. She further explained what constitutes a disaster and the disaster management cycle.
Ms. Joy Santiago also spoke about the relationship between disaster risk reduction and the creation of land use plans, the four pillars of the mitigating plan. and even the role that the UP Resilience Institute and UP NOAH Center play in serving the LGUs in fostering a more resilient Philippines.
BONTOC, Mountain Province -- As part of the International Forum on Innovations for Indigenous Peoples’ Empowerment and Social Transformation, UP National College of Public Administration and Governance (NCPAG) and the UP Resilience Institute's Assistant Professor Kristoffer Berse challenged the participants' thinking of common conceptions related to disaster risk reduction and climate change adaptation.
Held last 4-7 2018 at Teng-ab Pastoral Complex in Bontoc, Mountain Province, the event was attended by over 200 local and international participants. As one of the keynote speakers, Professor Berse talked about Rethinking Disaster Resilience in Changing Climate.
Prof. Berse encouraged the participants to continue investing in building capacity, strengthen and scale up their good practices, and to continually innovate and build on their strengths. All of which reflects for his other point:
"DRR/CCA is a way of life. It is NOT a program or project by the government or any NGO. An effective DRR/CCA requires changes in “habits of the mind”-- how we consume, how we produce, how we trade, how we live, and even how we die."
He also pointed out that DRR/CCA is not enough so we all need to push for resilience, adding that we need to accept that we will fail at some point and so we need to be able to recover fast and build back better right after.
He ended his presentation, by sharing three things that would help in strengthening resilience. He called them "3Ps". They are:
1. Plan to fail. (we should never be afraid of failure, rather we should have a better foresight with the aid of the academia).
2. Plan to sell (meaning your plan should be able to garner public support).
3. Plan as one (emphasizing on the value of collaboration and openness).
"It is one thing to resist, absorb, accommodate, and minimize damage (i.e. reduce risk), but it is another to get back on one’s feet. That, my friends, is the essence of resilience, and that’s what we should be aiming for. As the Japanese would say, 'The bamboo that bends is stronger than the oak that resists,'" he finished.
The International Forum on Innovations for Indigenous Peoples’ Empowerment and Social Transformation was organized by the Mountain Province State Polytechnic College (MPSPC), in cooperation with the Provincial Government of Mountain Province and Yayasan Global Banjar Internasional (Bali, Indonesia).
Sendai, JAPAN -- UP Baguio Vice-Chancellor for Administration Dr. Jessica Cariño and UP Resilience Institute researchers Lia Anne Gonzalo and Francesca Llanes attended the 2nd APRU-IRIDeS Campus Safety Workshop last 3-4 April, 2018 at the International Research Institute of Disaster Science (IRIDeS) in Tohoku University, Sendai, Japan.
Addressing the theme “Workshop on Building Disaster Resistant Universities: Is your University ready for the next Natural Disaster?,” the participants immersed in series of lectures and field visit to three sites affected by the 11 March 2011 | [

Zachary Hwang has been riding motorcycles for years. The temperature inside his helmet has, well, been less than comfortable.
"Heat has always been a big problem in the summer," Hwang says. "There is no air conditioning."
That inspired the University of Michigan student to launch his own startup, FrostGear. Hwang and two of his fellow Master of Entrepreneurship classmates have been working on a cooling technology for motorcycle helmets. The technology works because it cools the helmet, which in turn helps make the rest of the rider's body cool.
"We can make a smaller device that attaches to the helmet," Hwang says.
The TechArb-based startup is currently working on prototypes of its technology, leveraging resources from Ann Arbor SPARK and the University of Michigan’s Center for Entrepreneurship. It has applied for a provisional patent for its technology.
"Ideally by December we will have a Beta product that we can take to trade shows," Hwang says.

Introduced to Europe via trade with Asia and in contrast to the very fitted costume typical for European men in the 18th century, the Banyan was a loose robe based on those worn in India, China and Japan. Popular for casual wear in the home, it was believed to assist in relaxing the body to allow exercise of the mind. As a consequence, intellectual men were often painted wearing a banyan, such as in James Thornhill's portrait of Isaac Newton c.1710.
This example is particularly fine; not only is the style inspired by exotic shapes, but the fabric itself is very high quality dragon silk, probably intended for use by the imperial court in China. The survival of both the waistcoat and robe together is extraordinary.
See 400 Years of Fashion, Victoria & Albert Museum; and Fashion: The Collection of the Kyoto Costume Museum, for brief discussions of the importance of the Banyan in 18th century style. | [

Artist Jill Morton breathes intense emotions into her paintings, she interprets her strokes both with intention and abandon to create glowing abstract pieces. "What comes out is very raw and honest—and is a response to the energy and beauty I feel when I am observing nature," says Jill. She took art classes and traveled in pursuit of it, eventually landing in an art school in New York. A lifelong journey with art has helped her master connecting to her creative pulse to become the abstract artist she is meant to be. Her work always maintains a vigorous and spirited quality, prevailing in her goal to evoke wonder in the viewer. She shares her charming 300 square feet studio with a collective of 36 artists and musicians in a refurbished corset factory in Bridgeport, CT.

About The Artist
I begin a painting by intuitively choosing a color palette and mixing. My energy builds through this process and I decide on a canvas size. I use quick body movements and marks to help set the compositional stage. My process is a combination of strong emotions and interpreting responses to the marks I have made in front of me with brushes, palette knives, crayons and other unconventional tools. This dialogue continues until I am satisfied the painting is working as a whole and I really love it. I am definitely influenced by abstract expressionist women artists.

This book is intended for purchase alongside Robert B. Cialdini's original book Influence: The Psychology of Persuasion.

Witte sandwich plates are just as ergonomic and economically intelligent as the fixturing systems. They serve as a basis for measuring fixtures, for mounting complete fixtures, for assembly or transport purposes or as an alternative to conventional granite tables for 3D coordinate measuring machines. They are characterized not only by their light weight, but also high rigidity, evenness and parallelism. All plates can be manufactured with grids and sleeves for Witte PPS and PWS mounting systems or suitable for customer’s own system.
Both the stationary vertical and horizontal sandwich plates can be manufactured according to individual requirements: | [

White in 2011
June 4, 1961 |
San Diego, California, U.S.
Julie White (born June 4, 1961) is an American actress of film, stage and television. She is a Tony Award winner but is best known for her role as Nadine Swoboda in Grace Under Fire and for her role as Judy Witwicky in the Transformers film series.
White was born in the Balboa Naval Hospital in San Diego, California, the daughter of Sue Jane (née Terry), a therapist, and Edwin White, a dentist. White and her family moved to Austin, Texas, to take up ranching when she was three years old. She started acting in local plays and became a semi-professional at 16. While she was playing the lead role in the musical, The Baker's Wife, the show's authors encouraged her to take her talent to New York City. After graduating from high school, she followed their advice, enrolling as a history major at Fordham University.
White has been a prolific stage actress, getting her start in regional theatre. Her theater credits include roles in Absurd Person Singular, Money and Friends, Marvin's Room, Largo Desolato and On the Verge. White made her off-Broadway debut as the lead in Lucky Stiff. Her other off-Broadway credits include The Stick Wife, Early One Evening, Just Say No, Over Texas, and a starring role in Spike Heels with Kevin Bacon and Tony Goldwyn. White also appeared in a one-woman show, Theresa Rebeck's Bad Dates, written especially for her.
On Broadway, White appeared in a production of Wendy Wasserstein's Pulitzer Prize-winning play, The Heidi Chronicles. In 2006, she appeared in The Little Dog Laughed by Douglas Carter Beane, playing Diane, a screen agent, who, as one critic put it, is "a Mephistopheles in Manolos". The show, originally produced off-Broadway, transferred to Broadway with a new cast, including former Grace Under Fire costar Tom Everett Scott. She won the Tony Award for Best Performance by a Leading Actress in a Play for her performance, over fellow nominees Angela Lansbury, Vanessa Redgrave, Swoosie Kurtz and Eve Best.
White played Nadine, the quirky neighbor on Grace Under Fire. White joined the show when it launched in 1993 and appeared in the first four seasons. However, she did not appear in the show's final season. Her departure was attributed to conflict with the show's troubled star, Brett Butler.
White has subsequently made several guest appearances on HBO's Six Feet Under as Mitzi Dalton-Huntley and on NBC's Law & Order: Special Victims Unit as Dr. Anne Morella. White also appeared on Desperate Housewives as Amanda in the Season Two finale but chose to turn down a recurring role when she was offered the role in The Little Dog Laughed. She plays Judy Witwicky, mother of the main human character Sam Witwicky, in Transformers and its sequels, Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen and Transformers: Dark of the Moon. White appeared in the ABC sitcom Cavemen in 2007.
In 2008, White received a Drama Desk Award nomination for her role in the play From Up Here. In 2009, she appeared in the HBO original movie Taking Chance starring Kevin Bacon. She also lent her voice to the 2009 computer-animated film Monsters vs. Aliens.
White has served several times as a guest judge on the reality TV series Iron Chef America.
In 2013, White was a series regular on Amazon's Alpha House, a political comedy series written by Doonesbury creator Garry Trudeau. White plays Maddie Biggs, the wife of North Carolina Senator Gil John Biggs, played by John Goodman. White will also appear in the show's second season, which is filming over the summer of 2014.
In 2014 she joined the cast of Nurse Jackie for its sixth season.

If there is something that differentiates us, it is the commitment to a pattern that goes beyond trends.
Structured forms, folds and architectural volumes are our sign of identity.
Beatriz Fierro, architect and creative director of the brand, devises these shapes and transforms them into precise and studied patterns that make the garment fit perfectly on the female body.
At fierroMADRID we are committed to the timelessness of our designs, with the intention that they pass from mothers to daughters.
Pieces made with conscious attention, for a lifetime.
Natural fabrics are those that have been made with natural materials and fibers.
This type of fiber can be of animal or vegetable origin and have been used for thousands of years.
Compared to synthetic fabrics, they are a natural, healthier and more comfortable option for people who wear them both for their thermal, insulating and moisture-regulating qualities as well as for the security that they do not contain toxic and harmful elements than our skin can absorb.
Also, with few exceptions, they are more sustainable fibers because they come from renewable resources. The production and harvest of these fibers require less energy than the industrial production of synthetics. The plants from which they come from do not emit carbon dioxide, on the contrary they absorb it which makes their harvest have a positive impact on the environment.
At fierroMADRID we only use high quality natural fabrics. The use of these fabrics gives the garments that we design an added value, both as a healthy choice and as a commitment to our planet. This intrinsic value has to do with the sensorial and the symbolic, how they feel in touch with the skin. Their weight and natural color speak to us of their essence, they also relate to Nature and its connection with it. Ultimately, they talk about us and how we want to be perceived by others.
This is how consuming in a conscious way should be, acquiring authentic and beautiful things made with love from the beginning so that they can last over time.
Hemp and silk are the two fabrics that we have chosen for this season, you can combine them to make your garment unique.
It is one of the most resistant natural fibers. It is very soft to the touch and has good antibacterial and UV-resistant properties as well as being 100% biodegradable. Because it is a fiber that contains little air and has relatively few insulating properties, hemp always feels fresh. It has a great ability both to absorb moisture and to release it easily to the outdoors air.
Hemp is a relatively easy plant to grow, it has hardly any natural enemies and does not need a lot of water. Therefore, the plant is grown almost everywhere without using chemical herbicides or insecticides.
Its great ability to regenerate soils and remove CO2 from the atmosphere makes it one of the most sustainable fibers in the textile industry.
Due to its cultivation and ecological treatment, hemp clothing is highly suitable for sensitive skin.
This fabric is made by silkworms, which generate it naturally during their life cycle.
It is a natural fiber formed by proteins, which favors the fixation of natural dyes in its structure, resulting in very bright and vivid colors.
Its properties are high resistance, good moisture absorption and soft and smooth touch, with a very particular slight shine.
It is one of the most elegant fibers and has been used since ancient times as an expression of luxury and sophistication.
The natural coloring of fabrics consists on using medicinal dyeing plants that due to their chemical characteristics have the virtue of dyeing natural fibers such as cotton, jute, wool, hemp, silk, etc. Unlike synthetic dyes, they are environmentally friendly and sustainable. They do not contain chemical components derived from petroleum, harmful to our health and the environment.
Color in clothing is one of the important elements that generates the most impact in the design of a garment.
Historically there is evidence since the Neolithic of the use of natural techniques for the dyeing of clothing and it was not until the Industrial Revolution with the search for cheaper and faster production synthetic materials that they stopped being used, giving way to synthesized dyes. These are laboratory designed to bind to new petroleum-derived fabrics.
The color palette that we obtain from Nature has nothing to do with that of synthetic dyes. They not only favor any tone of skin but also take care of it. Many of the medicinal properties of these plants pass from the garment to the person who wears them by absorption.
At fierroMADRID we want to recover these ancestral and artisanal techniques and propose an sustainable alternative to textile coloring, one that “takes care” of the person who wears our garments.
For this SS21 season our palette of choice is the ocher YELLOWS in different tones dyed with pomegranate and the REDDISH shades obtained from the root of the “Rubia tinctorum”. All these wonderful colors have been created by the hands of Amparo Alandete from Salut | [

What is a Premium Matte Film Bookmark?
Matte film is an elegant, dull, glare-free, protective film. Matte film feels like paper but is actually a premium plastic film laminate that's applied to both sides of the bookmarks. Matte film is water and tear resistant (not proof), it is also used to protect the colors (especially dark colors) from rubbing off the edge of the paper. Matte film will make the final bookmarks thicker. Example: 16pt stock + matte film lamination will produce a 19pt bookmark.
Note: Before the final matte film is applied an initial aqueous coating is first applied. Aqueous is a protective coating that helps with the drying process when printing and also provides added durability.

#3) Stunted Hair Growth Due to Breakage
Another reason that you may be struggling to grow is because of breakage. If your hair is breaking at the same or a faster rate than your hair grows, then you won’t see the additional length.
In other words, if you’re experiencing breakage then your hair won’t be able to retain any of its growth.
Most people want their hair to grow significantly over night. Trust me, I understand because I have felt that way many time. However, the reality is that our hair typically grows 1/2″ per month.
But here's the thing: you won’t hair growth if your hair is breaking at the same or a faster rate than it is growing.
There are many reasons why you might be experiencing breakage. One reason for breakage could be due to hard water deposits that are left on your hair, which dry it out and making it brittle and eventually break off.
Also, your hair might be breaking because you are over-processing it. For example, this could include too much coloring, relaxing, and heat styling of your hair, to name a few.
What You Can Do
A way to combat breakage is to keep up with regular hair trims. Typically, you should get a trim every 6 to 8 weeks, or quarterly, depending on your hair.
Another way to treat breakage is to avoid or limit chemical processing or be sure to have these done by experienced, licensed professionals.
In addition, if you are chemically processing your hair, you may need to add more protein treatments to your hair to keep it strong. Finally, when washing and conditioning your hair be sure to apply a proven strengthening hair oil to the ends of your hair. This will help to seal in moisture and prevent spilt ends. | [

NASA is again rescheduling the launch of five rockets from Virginia due to bad weather.
The rockets are part of a study of the jet stream.
The launch had been set for Thursday at NASA's space center on Wallops Island but has now been pushed back to early Friday. Bad weather has postponed the launch several times.
The Anomalous Transport Rocket Experiment (ATREX) will help scientists understand the jet stream, which is located 60 to 65 miles above Earth's surface.
The rockets will release a chemical tracer to form white clouds that allow scientists and the public to visualize the winds. Residents from South Carolina to southern New Hampshire and Vermont might be able to see the clouds for up to 20 minutes.

Don't expect to see Pete Sampras and Andre Agassi volunteer for Davis Cup Dream Team duty any time soon. The world's top two ranked players, in town to contest the Comcast United States Indoors tournament, took time from their early-round matches not only to defend their decision not to play Davis Cup next month in Sicily but also to attack the United States Tennis Association for exerting pressure on them to participate.
According to Agassi, the U.S.T.A. is culpable for everything from an exclusionist ticket policy (it prefers expensive three-day packages to single-session tickets) to its refusal to hire the players' choice, John McEnroe, as captain.
"They were scared to death to hire McEnroe, which is understandable, but the bottom line is the U.S.T.A. makes it very difficult for its own players," Agassi said.
Sampras said he informed Tom Gullikson, the Davis Cup captain, eight months ago that "there was a good possibility I'd miss the first two rounds." And Sampras gave no guarantees about his availability for the semifinals either.
Les Snyder, the U.S.T.A. president, said he was disappointed at the position taken by the players.Continue reading the main story | [

Zambesi opened New Zealand Fashion Week in true futuristic style
Last night, Zambesi opened New Zealand Fashion Week with a bang! Their futuristic collection had all in attendance glued to the runway, jaws-dropped and waiting for the 2018 collection release date.
Mercedes-Benz earlier announced Zambesi as their 2017 Mercedes-Benz Presents Designer for Fashion Week. Zambesi have long been recognised as iconic; displaying innovation and inspiration with each collection. So this came as no surprise! In celebration of Mercedes-Benz' long partnership with the creative arts and global fashion, Zambesi created two bespoke garments. Inspiration for the looks came from Mercedes-Benz vehicle design and their continual dedication to luxury.
The garments resembled vintage racing suits, reimagined for the present day. Crafted from foil coated cotton, the fabric itself was a source of inspiration for Zambesi's head designers. Elisabeth Findlay, Zambesi's co-founder and designer, acknowledged that "the garments evoke a powerful, ultramodern attitude synonymous with innovation and craftmanship". The ensembles exemplified the qualities both Zambesi and Mercedes-Benz possess: innovative design and high quality couture.
The runway show was engaging and unique, with black lighting and futuristic music transporting us all out of 2017 New Zealand, and to the fashion-future. Zambesi designer, Dayne Johnston, was inspired by finds of the past. After finding a vintage driving suit in Paris, he translated the design into their "version of a functional one-piece suit".
The collection featured different textures and patterns; from foil coated cotton, to knitwear, quilting and corduroy. Inspired by New Zealand's native flora and fauna, Zambesi also presented their 'Paradise' pattern. The collection included printed garments, featuring a few of Elisabeth's favourite personal quotes. "Don't be afraid" was a definite favourite feature of the runway show.
The collection will be available in store from February 2018. Until then, catch all the looks and info at Zambesi online. | [

Accessing 4-oxy-substituted Isoquinolinones via C–H Activation and Regioselective Migratory Insertion with Electronically Biased ynol Ethers
College of Natual Science and Mathematics, Chemistry and Biochemistry
Ynol ethers, Regioselectivity, Migratory insertion
The rhodium-catalyzed C–H activation and annulation with ynol ethers to directly provide 4-oxy substituted isoquinolinones is reported. The polarized nature of ynol ethers provides an electronic bias for controlling the regioselectivity of the migratory insertion process. While the highly reactive nature of ynol ethers presents a challenge, mild conditions were found to provide product in moderate to good yield. Utility was demonstrated by application in the synthesis of a prolyl-4-hydroxylase inhibitor framework.

NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming) is a safe, quick and effective way of dealing with a variety of personal and organisational behaviours. As a qualified NLP and Neurosemantic Meta-State Practitioner, I am able to assist individuals and organisations to deal with hurt, poor communication, limited beliefs and self-destructive behaviour. When employees and managers have to deal with emotional toxicity they are often at a loss as to where to start. NLP offers a variety of tools and techniques to change organisations and individuals so as to experience positive shifts and growth that will allow them to flourish. When employees are able to function fully and the organisation's culture reflects organisational wellness, absenteeism is lowered, productivity improves and people want to work for such an organisation.
Allow me to show you how your department, organisation, institution can experience these positive changes. It is a well documented fact that team building excursions do not bring lasting change within organisations. Genuine change in organisations takes place when individuals change. Managers and subordinates need to make changes and shifts in behaviour which must be tangible, transparent and which supports the individual's and organisation's values. NLP can bring about commitment to change, speed up the process of change and make the experience lasting and exciting.
I also work with individuals to get the best out of life, to develop to their full potential and to experience personal mastery. This service often requires that I also assist dysfunctional families to experience harmony and growth. I am commited to your growth and development because I am committed to making the world a better place through human development. | [

Just in, thirty-eight players in football were arrested for violent crimes. Analysts also found that in the NBA season, 40 percent of the players had a police record involving a serious crime. The result is a higher injury rate than anyone desires.
Going back to the ethical dilemmas created in sports, these behaviors promoted in sports today are unethical.
John Underwood from Sports Illustrated supports this claim: Brutality is its own fertilizer. These techniques are questionable by nature, and although there are aggressive female sports in society today, the best way to understand all of this is to look at masculinity in culture. He claims that young men join sports with differing identities than do young women. In most societies, playing in power and performance sports has become an important and powerful way to prove masculinity. Few examples are shown stating the issue we face today with violence in sports.
The steps one can take could start with setting rules for good behaviors. As a coach, I always have team rules, which I ask athletes to help me set, so they can take ownership of them and think objectively of what is acceptable instead of just doing as they are told.
He stresses the importance to explain and discuss moral behavior Martens, Before they are teens, children learn moral values through imitation and practice more than instruction. As they grow older, their moral reasoning increases, given they have been instructed properly on what good morals and values are. At this stage, coaches and parents should take note to provide explanations that justify your request for them to behave ethically.
The right way is you could explain that it demonstrates sportsmanship and reflects well on the team and school. In this paper, I defined the term violence and explained it in terms of context within sports.
I examined the examples of athletes approach to sports that implies that violence is unfortunately bread into the fibers of most competitive sports. The best approach is to become an example for your students, athletes, and children.
Pray that the time and effort you spend to be a moral leader as a coach, parent, or teacher will have a worthy impact on the youth of today. The criminals who play in the nfl. Sport in contemporary society: The Spillover of Sports Violence: Most people have a dream. Some dream of becoming a professional football player, others dream of becoming president, and some dream of piece in the world.
It is good to have a dream, right? Morty had a dream. Morty never got to live his dream. Because he was friends with the wrong people, people who influenced him in a bad way. A unique product offering is critical for FC Bayern. More cases of domestic violence are becoming better known to the public; especially in sports mostly pertaining to players in the NFL league. People still need to realize that no matter how famous a person becomes their still accountable for their actions. Along with fans treating the victims more like the criminals instead of the players.

How to cite this page Choose cite format: Domestic Violence and the Police. The more violent the athlete plays, the better for him and his team.
Violent behavior is not limited to the players on field. Fans and spectators can fill a role when it comes to violent behavior. Although it is not expected as it is among the players, fans will engage in violence as a way of expressing, or reacting, to their emotional involvement with the sport.
On-the-field violence is related to a number of things including over-conformity to the norms of the sport ethic, commercialization, and masculinity. Which of these factors accounts most for the level of brutal body contact that occurs in professional football in the United States? Over-conformity to the norms of the sport ethic is the best choice. The reason is that there are certain expectations of competition especially in contact sports such as pro football.
To survive and excel in such a physical game as pro football the athletes must maintain over-conform to a certain extent. They must play the game in such a way that they maximize their earning potential. The average life span for a pro player is around 3 years.
For an athlete to secure lifelong financial security they must play with level of physicality that warrants their need to the team.
The involved are not just athletes, but the coaches, parents, referees, and the spectators are also involved in the violence. The three sports most involved are hockey, soccer, and football. Noticed was that after the September 11th terrorism took an increase in importance.
By and large, this paper offers a discussion of theories that explain violence in sports, how violence is sports occurs, and how violence in sports can be prevented. The | [

Continuing on with our Intuitive Eating Principles Series, today I am supplying you with tips on how to start tuning into your body’s sense of fullness. Intuitive Eating is all about self-knowledge, self-care, and self-compassion, and when you can listen to your body’s signals, you can better understand when you are full and what foods are satisfying you.
Click play to listen right on this page, no app needed:
Finding Support Through Intuitive Eating
Intuitive Eating is not a solo experience. It takes a good support group and framework in order to accomplish your goals and break up with diet culture. Through Intuitive Eating Principle 6, you can begin to listen to the messages your body is sending you, and get back to treating your body right.
How to Acknowledge Your Bodies Unique Fullness Signals
When was the last time you took a moment to check in with yourself during mealtime? Oftentimes we can rush through or distract ourselves when eating, which leads to stuffing ourselves past the point of satisfaction. Instead of eating past the point of comfortable fullness, Intuitive Eating can help you stop when you are satisfied.
Three Tips to Start Listening To Your Body
Diet culture has robbed many of us the trust we need in our bodies to be able to eat without a set of restrictions. By checking in with yourself throughout your meal, avoiding the ‘air foods’ that many diets try to push as ‘healthy’, and by listening to the innate cues your body is giving you, you too can feel your fullness and honor your body’s needs.
Do you struggle with your ability to sense your fullness, stop clearing the plate, and finish eating when you feel truly satisfied? Share how you differentiate between fullness and satisfaction with me in the comments below.
In This Episode
- The importance of a support system when diving into Intuitive Eating and going against the grain of diet culture (3:20)
- Three points to help you start tuning into your hunger and feeling your fullness (6:30)
- Why you should stop filling up on ‘air foods’ that diet culture tells you are the ‘right’ choice (14:06)
- The difference between satisfying your hunger and actually fueling your body with real foods (17:00)
- How to become okay with not always finishing your plate and avoid binge eating (18:08)
In Order To Start Feeling Your Fullness You Must:
- Get real about what dieting has taken from you and start to pay attention to the innate signals coming from within your body
- Avoid filling up on ‘air foods’ and create moments to pause and check-in during mealtimes
- Honor the signals that you feel of hunger or fullness and build trust in yourself that you can eat again
Resources Mentioned In This Show
“Please do not attempt this Intuitive Eating journey completely by yourself, and think that you have to be the hero and do everything and it’s an individual pursuit. Because really, that’s what diet culture loves.” (3:48)
“Intuitive Eating isn’t one of those things that you read or you hear a podcast about and you think ‘Great, now I’m an intuitive eater!’. No! It’s something that you practice and something you have to embody.” (5:12)
“If you consistently rush through meals or you are consistently distracted and you haven’t practiced feeling and sensing your fullness, this is a huge area for growth opportunity for you to be able to start doing that.” (13:12)
“If my tactic, every time I start to feel hungry or every time I try to fill myself up, is to go back to relying on these ‘air foods’, it’s not saying they don’t provide any kind of benefit, but are they really satisfying our hunger? And the answer in a lot of those cases is ‘no’.” (17:04)
“It’s not an arbitrary portion control based on external rules. This is about tuning in, noticing… building that trust again that what your body is telling you is something you can begin to listen too.” (21:53)
Three Ways to Honor Your Body’s Fullness (Intuitive Eating Principle 6) FULL TRANSCRIPT
This is Episode 297 of the Listen To Your Body podcast and on today’s show a continuation of our intuitive eating series. This one is all about tips for you to start tuning in to your sense of fullness. The next evolution of Harder To Kill Radio is here, welcome to the Listen To Your Body podcast. On this show, we’ll explore the intersection of body, mind, and soul health and help you reclaim your abilities to eat and move more intuitively, hear your body’s signals, and trust yourself more deeply.

Mexico City is experiencing for the third day its worst environmental crisis in 14 years due to poor air quality resulting from a high concentration of pollutants, environmental authorities said.
The "extremely" bad air quality is a result of automobile and industry emissions paired with a lack of winds and an atmospheric thermal inversion. However, it follows days of intense winds that literally caused billboards to fall on cars.
The crisis has led to the closure of schools and suspension of outdoors activities in cultural centers, museums, parks and public sports centers. Authorities have also implemented vehicular restrictions.
“It is suffocating, I have itchy throat and eyes, authorities say their are doing everything possible to control the situation but is not true, the streets are full of cars and vehicles that clearly do not meet environmental regulations,” Nina Carrasco, a resident of Mexico City, told teleSUR.
Air pollution in Mexico City is a continuing concern for citizens, health experts, and environmentalists. Health officials have warned that air pollution in Mexico kills about 20,000 people each year. | [

A Mindset Shift PCOS Episode
This series would not be complete without interviewing someone who actually has PCOS. That’s why Jenny Vila is joining us today! A part of The Hormone Dietitian community and a long-time supporter of my work, Jenny shares some insight on what it’s like to live with PCOS and what her journey to find treatment looked like from her point of view.
Jennie Vila EdM, LPC, ACS is a licensed mental health counselor who was diagnosed with PCOS at the age of 12. She had difficulties finding medical care that treated her as a whole person and didn’t just focus on her fertility or her weight. After decades of various diets and exercise plans and even undergoing bariatric surgery, what finally made the difference in her PCOS treatment was a mindset shift. She learned how to nourish her body with food and found motivation for exercise beyond just doing it to change her body.
In this episode, we talk about

The SPARCS equipment will be used to enhance mobile radiation detection and support major public events that will strengthen the radiological and nuclear incident.
NNSA’s Office of Counterterrorism and Counterproliferation provided the Office of Atoms for Peace (OAP) – part of Thailand’s Ministry of Higher Education, Science, Research and Innovation – with Emergency Preparedness and Response training and equipment in Bangkok, Thailand, Nov. 18-22.
The radiological incident response equipment – Spectral Advanced Radiological Computer Systems, or SPARCS – will not only enhance OAP’s capacity to respond to radiation incidents but will also allow the office to provide training to internal Thai chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear (CBRN) defense response teams from the Thailand Institute of Nuclear Technology and the Department of Disaster Prevention and Mitigation.
“Understanding our international partner’s needs and helping them build capacity for emergency preparedness and response training helps NNSA and the entire Government of Thailand,” said NNSA Foreign Affairs Specialist Andrae Brooks.
The SPARCS equipment will be used to enhance mobile radiation detection and support major public events that will strengthen the radiological and nuclear incident response capability for the OAP and the Government of Thailand.
During the week, the NNSA team also visited the one megawatt Thai Research Reactor 1/ Modification 1 (TRR-1/M1) located at the Thailand Institute of Nuclear Technology. The visit was instrumental in providing a better understanding of safety precautions, research missions, and the commercial applications of the reactor for Thai industries. | [

Loss of function to arteries or the microvasculature, due to diseases such as atherosclerosis, peripheral artery diseases or ischemia, contributes to high morbidity and high mortality in the U.S. An emerging solution is mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) therapy, which has the potential to regenerate blood vessels and revolutionize the treatment of vascular diseases. However, results from MSC-based vascular therapies have been inconsistent, and worse, some studies have reported vascular dysfunction. These therapeutic outcomes are, at least in part, attributable to an ill-defined cell environment, which ultimately regulates MSC fate during therapy. To achieve successful MSC-based vascular therapy, several unresolved issues must be addressed: (a) suboptimal MSC environments that result in a mixed cell populations with low vascular specificity or signaling;(b) lack of mechanistic understandings as to how multifactorial environments determine MSC fate in vivo;and (c) limited platform technologies available for the translation of in vitro cell differentiatio environments to in vivo vascular therapies. To address these knowledge gaps, the overall goal of this proposal is to establish a comprehensive platform that recapitulates the synergism of the physical and biochemical environments in normal vascular tissues in order to perpetuate highly specific and mature vascular differentiation of MSCs for vascular therapy. Our hypothesis is that vessel-mimetic mechanical and biochemical environments provide synergistic signaling to MSCs, perpetuating vascular regeneration under physiological conditions in vitro and in vivo. To pursue our hypothesis, we will take an innovative approach by developing 3D nanofibrous niches with independently modulated microenvironment factors, i.e. matrix rigidity, ligand and cytokine, to optimize vascular cell regeneration, and incorporating these distinct niches into a graft scaffold with spatiotemporal control for evaluation under physiological flow. This approach is built on our team's biomaterial capabilities of producing nanofibrous materials with controlled rigidity, anisotropy and spatiotemporal release of proteins, and ligand incorporation.
Three aims are proposed here:
AIM 1 focuses on MSC-matrix interaction mechanisms underlying the rational design of 3D synthetic niche matrices for vascular differentiation;
AIM 2 seeks to define synthetic niches that converge mechano-chemical signaling for optimal vascular regeneration;
and AIM 3 integrates and evaluates synthetic niches with vascular grafts to demonstrate feasibility and provide critical feedback for future design and clinical translation. This new interdisciplinary study, combining biomaterials, cell signaling, vascular mechanobiology and tissue engineering, if successful, will help to accomplish our long-term goal of designing application-specific vascular microphysiological systems that can predict, improve and optimize cell-based vascular therapy.
Statement Loss of functional artery or microvasculature for blood perfusion, due to diseases such as atherosclerosis, peripheral artery diseases and ischemia, to just name a few, accounts for high morbidity and mortality in the U.S. Stem cell therapy using mesenchymal stem cells is an emerging solution in clinic, but raises concerns about the therapy efficacy. This project aims to develop a biomaterial platform that can precisely define the physical, chemical, structural and biological microenvironments for mesenchymal stem cells, which may lead to highly efficacious vascular therapy in the future.

I regret drunk driving: Lindsay Lohan
London: Actress Lindsay Lohan, who was arrested twice for driving under the influence of alcohol in 2007, says she regrets her actions.
Lohan, 28, who has also been in rehab nine times, vows never to drive drunk again, reported Contactmusic.
"I would never have got behind the wheel of a car after having a drink. Ever," the 'Mean Girls' actress said when asked what one thing about her life she would change.
Lohan, who is currently starring in West End play 'Speed-the-Plow', says she had lost focus in the past but is determined to get her career back on track.
"Acting is what I do, it's therapeutic for me, it's fun for me. At the end of the day that's the most important thing. The diligence and focus you have to have, that I maybe lost sight of for a little bit. Well I'm prepared now to deliver and all I can do is my best," she said. PTI | [

'Optical rocket' created with intense laser light
In a recent experiment at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, plasma electrons in the paths of intense laser light pulses were almost instantly accelerated close to the speed of light.
Physics professor Donald Umstadter, who led the research, said the new application might aptly be called an “optical rocket” because of the tremendous amount of force that light exerted in the experiment. The electrons were subjected to a force almost a trillion-trillion-times greater than that felt by an astronaut launched into space.
“This new and unique application of intense light can improve the performance of compact electron accelerators,” he said. “But the novel and more general scientific aspect of our results is that the application of force of light resulted in the direct acceleration of matter.”
The optical rocket is the latest example of how the forces exerted by light can be used as tools, Umstadter said.
Normal intensity light exerts a tiny force whenever it reflects, scatters or is absorbed. One proposed application of this force is a “light sail” that could be used to propel spacecraft. Yet because the light force is exceedingly small in this case, it would need to be exerted continuously for years for the spacecraft to reach high speed.
Another type of force arises when light has an intensity gradient. One application of this light force is an “optical tweezer” that is used to manipulate microscopic objects. Here again, the force is exceedingly small.
In the Nebraska experiment, the laser pulses were focused in plasma. When electrons in the plasma were expelled from the paths of the light pulses by their gradient forces, plasma waves were driven in the wakes of the pulses, and electrons were allowed to catch the wakefield waves, which further accelerated the electrons to ultra-relativistic energy. The new application of intense light provides a means to control the initial phase of wakefield acceleration and improve the performance of a new generation of compact electron accelerators, which are expected to pave the way for a range of applications that were previously impractical because of the enormous size of conventional accelerators.
The experimental research was conducted by students and scientists at Nebraska, with senior research associate Grigoroy Golovin serving as lead author on the paper reporting the new result. Funding was provided by the National Science Foundation.
The experiment was based upon numerical modeling by scientists from Shanghai Jiao Tong University in China. Umstadter theoretically predicted the underlying mechanism two decades ago. The results were reported in September in the journal Physical Review Letters.

One overlooked aspect of a company’s long-term success is good leadership. A good leader not only supervises but is also a positive driving force towards the company’s vision. Such leaders are honed to perfection with the aid of experience, discipline, and coaching.
A leadership coach must find the structured approach pertinent to the company. Luckily, there are ways to do so in the most efficient way possible. Accredited establishments provide and interpret leadership diagnostic tools and are readily available. These tests are all done virtually in under an hour and are then analyzed. A further individual debrief for each participant by an accredited consultant may follow to explain the findings and come up with a better strategy for fulfilling your role in the team proficiently. Some of the tools are as follows:
Global Leadership Well-being Survey (GLWS)
This survey measures the well-being of the team’s leaders in different aspects, be it social, emotional, physical, or intellectual. This focuses on the psychology, leadership, and behavioral aspects of the leaders and the team as a working unit.
Life Styles Inventory (LSI)
An effective tool used to identify your thinking and behavioral style, which affects your strength and development areas. This is divided into two parts. LSI 1 uses self-assessment tests where participants assess their thinking styles, rate their effectiveness, and own satisfaction at work. On the other hand, LSI 2 uses colleague feedback. Your peers report on your behavioral style through their eyes.
Opportunities – Obstacles Quotient (QO2) Profile
This profiling highlights one’s adaptability when facing challenging situations and change. It allows the participants to groom their resilience and change how they see the obstacles they will face in the work environment.
Emotional Quotient Inventory (EQ-i 2.0)

The W Hotel Plaza was across from the station which is a plus, but Takayama is small, and beautiful. So you go visit. But the W Hotel P is not really ideal. The rooms are so small that you can't full open your suitcases unless you put them on the beds (we pushed the beds together for more space, and tucked the suitcases under), same for the bathroom, supertiny. The room was clean though. There was no buffet breakfast, you chose either Japanese br or Western br. And it was not good. Employees were indifferent.
