Voltage-gated sodium channels serve as a target for many neurotoxins that bind to several distinct, allosterically interacting receptor sites. We examined the effect of membrane potentials (incited by increasing external K+ concentrations) on the binding modulation by veratridine, brevetoxin, and tetrodotoxin of the scorpion α-toxin AaH II to receptor site 3 on sodium channels of rat brain synaptosomes. Depolarization is shown to differentially modulate neurotoxin effects on AaH II binding: Veratridine increase is potentiated, brevetoxin's inhibitory effect is reduced, and tetrodotoxin enhancement is evident mainly at resting membrane potential (5 mM K+). Both tetrodotoxin and veratridine apparently reverse the inhibition of AaH II binding by brevetoxin at resting membrane potential, but only veratridine is able to partially restore AaH II binding at 0 mV (135 mM K+). Thus, the allosteric interactions are grouped into two categories, depending on the membrane potential. Under depolarized conditions, the cooperative effects among veratridine and brevetoxin on AaH II binding fit the previously described two-state conformational model. At resting membrane potential, additional interactions are revealed, which may be explained by assuming that toxin binding induces conformational changes on the channel structure, in addition to being state-dependent. Our results provide a new insight into neurotoxin action and the complex dynamic changes underlying allosteric coupling of neurotoxin receptor sites, which may be related to channel gating. | [

Mid-week market update: I was wrong. I thought that the stock market was due for a pause and pullback last week (see A possible pause in the uptrend). Instead, it has strengthening on skeptical sentiment and improving breadth.
The combination of these conditions are suggestive that the current rally as a lot further to go in the short run.
Sentiment is still skeptical
I have been writing for several weeks about how sentiment readings have shown signs of skepticism. The latest data points come from Rydex and Mark Hulbert. The chart below of cash flows into Rydex defensive funds as a % of total cash flows indicate that caution is rising even as the market advanced. This is a classic sign of the market climbing the proverbial Wall of Worry.
As well, Mark Hulbert observed that his sentiment readings are incredibly subdued (vias USA Today):
To appreciate how subdued stock market optimism is right now, consider the average recommended stock market exposure among several dozen short-term market timers I monitor (as measured by the Hulbert Stock Newsletter Sentiment Index, or HSNSI). This average currently stands at 47%, which means that over half of the typical market timer’s stock market portfolio is in cash. That’s amazing, considering that the Dow is only 1.3% away from climbing to a new all-time high.
The mood then was far more update [I think he means upbeat] than it is today: The HSNSI that month got as high as 73%, which was one of the highest readings of the last two decades—and 25 percentage points higher than today’s level. Contrarians last summer were therefore not surprised by the market’s subsequent stumbles.
Josh Brown said the same thing, but at an anecdotal level:
The anger about the new all-time high the S+P 500 is currently approaching is palpable. Take my word for it, I read everything and everyone.
The 14.5% rally off the February lows, on nothing but worsening earnings and cuts to GDP forecasts has people utterly furious. I’m trying to remember a time in which stocks were on the verge of a breakout and people were so angry about it. The Dow just broke above 18,000 for the first time in nearly a year, and no one wants to even smile.
I call it skepticism. He goes further and calls it “anger”. Any way you look at it, there are way too many bears who haven’t capitulated.
Breadth confirms market strength
The stock market rally has been confirmed by improvement in market breadth metrics. The chart below shows that the SPX A-D Line, which is an apple-to-apples measure of breadth when compared to the NYSE A-D Line, making new highs even as the index advanced. Even though % bullish and % of stocks above the 50 day moving average (dma) did not confirm the market strength, other measures, such as NYSE new highs and % of stocks above the 200 dma did.
In his latest daily trading notes, Brett Steenbarger agrees with my interpretation of improving breadth. Moreover, he is not seeing signs of rising selling pressure:
Stocks moved to new highs for this run, with significantly expanded breadth. Across all exchanges, stocks making fresh 3 month highs vaulted to a new peak. (See below). The general rule is that peaks in breadth/momentum tend to precede price peaks for bull cycles. While breadth is stretched here–and indeed we’ve pulled back in overnight trade–we continue to see dips at successively higher price lows, which is what makes for bull moves…
A different way of looking at breadth tracks the number of NYSE stocks giving buy versus sell signals across a variety of technical trading systems. I keep those stats as a cumulative running total, which has also displayed unusual strength in recent sessions. (See below). What is equally noteworthy is that few shares are giving sell signals, which is a reflection of the low level of selling pressure evident in the upticks/downticks data. Bottom line, I’m not seeing signs of deterioration in this market at the present time.
A “good” overbought market
To be sure, the market is flashing overbought readings, which are cautionary signs. These charts from IndexIndicators tell the story of how extended breadth measures are. Here is the % of stocks above their 10 dma, which has retreated a bit from overbought extremes:
Here is a chart of the net 20 day highs-lows:
While these conditions show that the market is overbought, readings are not at excessively crowded long levels. This could be considered to be a “good” overbought state, where the market gets overbought and stays overbought for some time. The combination of investor skepticism and strong breadth also indicates to me that this | [

is sufficient, yet he is sovereign, and will use his own pleasure whether he will save you or not. If you put off salvation till hereafter, salvation will not be in your power. It will be as a sovereign God pleases, whether you shall obtain it or not. Seeing, therefore, that in this affair you are so absolutely dependent on God, it is best to follow his direction in seeking it, which is to hear his voice to-day: "To-day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your heart." Beware also of discouragement. Take heed of despairing thoughts, because you are a great sinner, because you have persevered so long in sin, have backslidden, and resisted the Holy Ghost. Remember that, let your case be what it may, and you ever so great a sinner, if you have not committed the sin against the Holy Ghost, God can bestow mercy upon you without the least prejudice to the honour of his holiness, which you have offended, or to the honour of his majesty, which you have insulted, or of his justice, which you have made your enemy, or of his truth, or of any of his attributes. Let you be what sinner you may God can, if he pleases, greatly glorify himself in your salvation.
which God has given to the Christian church to be their rule in all ages. And the precepts, that we find in those epistles are no more to be regarded as precepts intended only for those to whom the epistle was sent, than the ten commandments, that were spoken from Mount Sinai to the children of Israel, are to be regarded as commands intended only for that people. And when we are directed to follow the good examples of the apostle Paul by the Holy Ghost, it is not merely as we are to imitate whatever we see, that is good in any one, let him be who tians to follow the good examples of this great apostle. And it But there are spiritual obligations, that lie on Chrishath pleased the Holy Ghost in an especial manner to set up the apostle Paul, not only as a teacher of the Christian church, but as a pattern to other Christians. The greatest example of all, that is set before us in the scripture to imitate, is the example of Jesus Christ, which he set us in his human nature, and This is presented to us not

only as a great pattern, but as a perfect rule. And the example of no of Christ. man is set forth, as our rule, but the example which God himself set us, or the acts of the divine nature. We are commanded to follow the examples Ephesians v. 1. "Be ye therefore followers of God, as dear children." And Matthew v. 48. "Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father, which is in heaven is perfect." But the example of Christ Jesus, when on earth, is more especially our pattern. For, though the acts of the divine nature have the highest possible perfection, and though his inimitable perfection is our best example, yet God is so much above us, his nature so infinitely different from ours, that it is not possible that his acts should be so accommodated to our nature and circumstances, as to be an example of so great and general use, as the perfect example in our nature which Christ has set us. a divine person, was man, as we are men; and not only so, but he was, in many respects, a partaker of our circumstances. He dwelt among men. He depended on food and raiment, and such outward supports of life, as we do. He was subject to the changes of time, and the afflictions and calamities of this evil Christ, though world, and to abuse from men's corruptions, and to temptations from Satan, as we are; was subject to the same law and rule that we are, used the same ordinances, and had many of our trials, and greater trials than we. the example, that is chiefly offered in scripture for our imitation. we are, may in some respects be more accommodated to our But yet the example of some that are fallen creatures, as So that Christ's example is circumstances, and more fitted for our instructions, than the ex ample of Jesus Christ.

And we need an example, that shall teach and direct us how to behave towards Christ our Lord and head.

“Grow Together” held a community engagement event along with Barleythorpe Allotment Society on the 22nd May 2019, to do some worm charming and a soil survey. It was a lovely May evening and around 30 people came out in summer clothes for an early evening get-together! We sang, played drums, stamped our feet and dug holes to encourage any worms living in the new allotment beds to have a wriggle around!
Around six samples were completed and overall only three worms were found! This is not to say that worms don’t exist here, but as the allotments are a new site with builder’s rubble in the imported topsoil, this is not an ideal habitat for our worm friends.
More worms would be of real benefit for this growing space for food and flowers and would greatly improve the quality of the soil. Worms help to improve drainage and aerate the soil so that plants grow better allowing them to root more efficiently to draw up the water and nutrients that they need to grow.
It was evident that work needs to be done to enrich the soil on this new allotment site. No doubt this will be done as the older allotment site at Barleythorpe has a productive and thriving soil, growing food and worms in abundance!
We shall host the worm survey again next May after a year of growing and adding nutrition to the soil and hope that the worm population increases!
Thank you to Cllr Sue Webb for working on this project with Grow Together and to all for coming to the event and for thinking about maintaining good growing conditions for food for families for now and in the future. | [

New, greener, streetlights will roll out across Hammersmith & Fulham’s road network in coming weeks.
The LED lamps, which use less energy and produce a more natural white light, than the traditional orange street lamp glow, will replace all streetlights in the borough by April 2018.
The switch to LED lights forms part of H&F Council’s ambition to be the greenest borough in the country, by saving energy, but the more natural light range should also enhance safety.
- What are LEDs?
Light-emitting diodes are compound semiconductor devices that produce visible light when an electrical current passes through them.
- What are the advantages of switching to LED?
The advantages are numerous. Here are just some of the benefits.
- LEDs use much less electricity than other lamps or bulbs, reducing energy cost.
- Have extremely long lives compared to traditional lights.
- Produce very little heat.
- Produce much less carbon emissions.
- Contain no mercury.
- Can operate effectively in extremely cold and hot environments.
- Produces a white light for the human eye to see natural colours at night.
- Are much more directional than other lights reducing ‘sky glow’ and glare.
- LEDs are instantaneous and function at full output when switched on. No warm-up times as with most street lighting.
- Why now? Why LEDs?
LEDs, as a technology, have improved significantly for use in external street lighting applications in the last five years. Now that the demand is there, the costs for this technology have greatly reduced. Research and development has also improved light output making LEDs cost effective solution to street lighting.
LED lights are now competitively priced with existing light sources but are now able to provide the same amount of for approximately 50 per cent of the existing output, this results to an approximate 50 per cent energy costs. It is this combination that allows us to cost effectively use LEDs within the borough.
- What are the project’s phases?
The introduction of LED lighting to our highway network of roads is being undertaken in two phases and will replace only the lanterns on existing lamp column locations.
Phase 1, starting in February 2017. Phase 1 is programmed to replace our main road network with LED lights by April 2017.
Phase 2, residential roads. We are currently finalising the required design works for this phase.
Our current programme is:
- Design completion February 2017
- Procurement March 2017
- Implementation from June 2017
- Completion April 2018.
- How 'green' are LEDs?
LEDs produce the same output as a traditional light source with a lower wattage, i.e. a 30W LED will provide the required road lighting level as an existing 70W High Pressure Sodium light.
- Do LEDs reduce carbon consumption?
Using approximately 50 per cent of the energy will significantly reduce the carbon produced, reducing our carbon footprint.
- Will the changeover be noisy?
No, the works required will generally be undertaken during normal working hours.
- Will it make the road safer?
As LEDs produce a natural white light, this enables the human eye to see in colour. This will make your road look safer and should reduce crime and the fear of crime.
- Will LEDs be as bright?
LEDs are slightly brighter than traditional light sources, but the ability to direct light will minimise glare. The directional qualities also reduces light into and onto properties in majority of situations.
- If LEDs project light in specific directions, do they produce glare?
LED lights are designed to blend seamlessly within the environment. The lantern design delivers an improved light distribution that will softly wash our road network, providing much better uniformity of light than traditional light sources.
- What does LED lighting look like?
LEDs provide a more natural-looking light than fluorescents or other lighting generally used within our street scape. LED as an innovation enables people and their environmental surroundings to be seen in colour.
- Do LEDs produce heat?
LEDs produce very little amounts of heat compared to traditional light sources. Lower heat should improve the life of the LED and will significantly reduce failures.
- How long do LEDs last?
LEDs are notable for being extremely long-lasting products. Many LEDs have an expected lifetime of up to 80,000 hours. This is approximately four to eight times longer than a typical conventional street lighting lamp.
- Are LEDs more expensive?
The cost of LED lighting is now comparable, and in most road lighting cases is cheaper than existing lighting products. The project is currently costed at £3 million.
- How efficient are LEDs?
Compared to conventional technologies, LED lighting can currently deliver the same amount of light using approximately 50 per cent of the power required by traditional light sources.
- Is an LED a bulb or lamp?
In fact, it is neither. LEDs do appear to be bulbs but they are actually tiny semiconductors encapsulated in plastic | [

Effect of abiotic environment on the distribution of the attached and drifting red algae Furcellaria lumbricalis in the Estonian coastal sea/Punavetikas agariku (Furcellaria lumbricalis) kinnitunud ja triiviva vormi levikumustrit kujundavad abiootilised tegurid Eesti rannikumeres.
Furcellaria lumbricalis (Hudson) J. V. Lamouroux is an abundant member of the marine flora in colder waters of the North Atlantic and Arctic oceans. The species is one of the few rhodophytes that prevails in the brackish Baltic Sea (Novaczek & Breeman, 1990; Bird et al., 1991; Nielsen et al., 1995). Furcellaria lumbricalis is the only economically important red algal species in the Baltic Sea and has been exploited in the study area since the 1960s (Trei, 1978; Martin et al., 2006a). Besides its economic value, the loose-lying macroalgae enhance the diversity of macroinvertebrates by offering a secondary substrate for several true hard-bottom species (Kotta et al., 2000; Kotta & Orav, 2001; Orav-Kotta & Kotta, 2004; Lauringson & Kotta, 2006).
There exist attached and drifting forms of F. lumbricalis. Bird et al. (1991) give an adequate review on the morphological differences between these distinct forms. Furcellaria lumbricalis can be confused with Polyides rotundus (Hudson) Gaillon, but F. lumbricalis lacks discoid holdfast and has wider branching angles compared to P. rotundus (Waern, 1952; Dixon & Irvine, 1977; Guiry & Guiry, 2009). The attached form of F. lumbricalis can be found practically throughout the photic range on hard substrates at salinities down to 4 (Snoeijs, 1999; Martin, 2000; Kotta & Orae, 2001; Kostamo, 2008). The attached F. lumbricalis has sexual and sporangial reproduction (Austin, 1960a, 1960b). In particular, sexual reproduction occurs occasionally and clonality is a common phenomenon in the northern Baltic Sea (Kostamo, 2008). Besides the attached form the West Estonian Archipelago Sea hosts a drifting red macroalgal community dominated by F. lumbricalis (= forma aegagropila) and the drifting form of Coccotylus truncates (Pall.) M. J. Wynne & J. M. Heine. The community is truly unique in European seas and is likely maintained by the prevailing circular currents and the grid of islets that surround the area (Martin, 2000). Unlike the common attached F. lumbricalis, the drifting (also known as loose-lying, unattached, free-living, free-floating) form of the species appears only in sterility and reproduces only vegetatively, mainly by fragmentation (Austin, 1960c; Norton & Mathieson, 1983; Bird et al., 1991).
It is plausible that different environmental factors determine the patterns of attached and drifting forms of F. lumbricalis. In general, the large-scale distribution of F. lumbricalis is determined mainly by temperature. Within the optimum temperature range the species inhabits lower intertidal and subtidal hard bottoms and tolerates reduced salinities (Luning, 1990; Guiry & Guiry, 2009). Within the Baltic Sea salinity is likely the most important factor setting the regional distribution limits of algal species (Kautsky & Kautsky, 2000) and within the optimum salinity range substrate type is considered to be the most important factor regulating local macroalgal community structure, including F. lumbricalis (Eriksson & Bergstrum, 2005). Earlier studies on the Baltic Sea red algal communities have shown that the type of substrate, wave exposure, and depth mainly explain the observed distribution patterns of the attached F. lumbricalis (Reitalu et al., 2002; Martin & Torn, 2004; Becas et al., 2007). However, the importance of different environmental factors that govern the distribution of macroalgal communities may vary among water basins (Martin, 2000).
Nowadays, the drifting F. lumbricalis can be found only in semi-exposed habitats in the Baltic Sea (Martin et al., 2006b) but it may also occur in the lochs of Scottish and Irish seas (Leering et al., 1969: 421). The drifting F. lumbricalis was previously found in Polish waters but the community disappeared due to elevated eutrophication in the 1980s (Kruk-Dowgiallo & Szaniawska, 2008). Intensive harvesting decimated the stocks of the drifting Furcellaria | [

Air New Zealand boss Christopher Luxon has been appointed to Virgin Australia's board alongside its fellow investors in the Australian airline from Etihad Airways and Singapore Airlines.
Air NZ's Luxon, Etihad's James Hogan, and Goh Choon Phong of Singapore Airlines will join Virgin's board, representing their major stakeholder positions in Australia's budget carrier. Overall, 79 per cent of the company is split between the three airlines and Richard Branson's Virgin Group, the company said in a statement.
Auckland-based Air NZ lifted its stake in Virgin to 25.99 per cent last month, the maximum holding it is allowed in its agreement with the nation's foreign investment body, having first sought an alliance with the Australian airline in 2010 after a potential tie-up with Qantas was knocked back in prior years. Etihad holds a 21 per cent stake and Singapore Airlines sits on a 22 per cent holding, according to the most recent substantial shareholder notices on the ASX website.
Virgin adopted a nominee director protocol, in consultation with the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission and the Department of Infrastructure and Regional Development, to manage conflicts of interest and confidential information.

"We have put in place strong protocols in relation to confidential information and any conflict of interest," said Neil Chatfield, chairman of the Virgin board. "The board will retain its overall independence given that I, as current chairman, am an independent director and the company's constitution states that the chairman has a casting vote if there is an equality of votes at a meeting of directors."
Shares in ASX-listed Virgin Australia last traded at 42.5 Australian cents and have gained 12 per cent this year. On the NZX shares in Air New Zealand rose 0.5 per cent to $2.18 and advanced 32 per cent this year. | [

The testing program is now in progress at the Pendalian-3 well. Wireline data confirm that reservoir quality is excellent and three cased-hole drill stem tests of the likely oil zones in the Sihapas Sandstone section are expected to start this week. The program is designed to test a series of sandstone units, which are established producing reservoirs at these depths in nearby fields.
The zones that will be tested by DST's #3, #4 and #5 zones are analogous to zones that tested oil from Pendalian-1.
As anticipated, based on the interpretation of the wireline logs, the first test, DST #1, over the deepest interval has produced fresh water although there were minor indications of oil. The DST #1 and #2 equivalent intervals in nearby wells did not flow oil and DST #1 has confirmed that the interval is a fresh water zone. DST #2 has been deleted from the program.
Participants in the West Kampar Production Sharing Contract include Sumatera Persada Energi as the operator with 55% interest and Oilex with 45% interest.

To Catch a Thief
However, the trip and movie had to pay for themselves. Hitch already had box-office gold in Grace Kelly, making her third consecutive appearance in one of his films. The gold would go to platinum, however, if he could nab the perfect actor for the lead, Cary Grant.
Grant, unfortunately, had just announced his retirement from acting. For Hitchcock, though, he would at least hear him out over a poolside lunch. The director outlined the plot for the star; a jewel thief who became a hero in the French Resistance is suspected of taking up his old ways when a series of robberies plague the wealthy set. To keep the gendarmes off his back, he has to track down the real bandit. Grant agreed to read the script although he warned Hitchcock not to get his hopes up. Hitch kept the bombshell until the end of the meeting. "It might help you as you're reading, Grace Kelly has agreed to play the girl and a good part of the picture will be shot on the Riviera." Cary Grant may have been set on retirement, but he was only human. Who could turn down a job offer like that?
For the screenplay, Hitchcock collaborated with John Michael Hayes, who had penned his previous film, Rear Window. Hayes remarked (in The Dark Side of Genius: The Life of Alfred Hitchcock by Donald Spoto), "On To Catch a Thief he [Hitchcock] got involved in the script work every day, which had not been true of Rear Window. The work was a pleasure for most of the time. What made us a good team was that he had such brilliant technique and knowledge of the visual, and ego and conviction; and I think I was able to bring him a warmth of characterization." As a result the dialogue was extremely playful and witty, particularly memorable for its many sexual puns and double entendres. For example, there's the picnic scene when Kelly offers Grant some cold chicken, "Do you want a leg or a breast?"
Grant: "You make the choice."
Kelly: "Tell me, how long has it been?
Grant: "Since what?"
Kelly: "Since you were in America last."
Or the famous fireworks scene where Kelly approaches Grant in her sexy, strapless evening gown and says, "If you really want to see fireworks, it's better with the lights off. I have a feeling that tonight you're going to see one of the Riviera's most fascinating sights. I'm talking about the fireworks, of course."
Other memorable scenes from To Catch a Thief include the elaborate costume ball which Hitchcock wanted to film merely to showcase Kelly's shimmering gold gown and Grant's unmasking of the thief on the rooftop. "John Michael Hayes recalled that, during the filming of the final rooftop sequence, Hitchcock summoned him up to the high scaffolding. "Look at them all down there," the director said to his writer. "They think we're discussing something important or profound. But I only wanted to find out whether you're as frightened of heights as I am." (From The Dark Side of Hitchcock).
As expected, there was a potent on-screen sexual chemistry between Grant and Kelly. But while Grant may have been tempted by his co-star off screen she was definitely off limits. Besides, Grant was accompanied by his wife Betsy and Kelly by her boyfriend Oleg Cassini. However, Kelly's future husband was an off screen presence. During shooting in Monaco, Kelly spied a beautiful, walled garden she wanted to tour but arrangements with the owner, Prince Rainier, could not be made in time. Within a couple of years, Kelly would marry the Prince and be mistress of that garden.
Kelly's marriage was a boon to Monaco's royalty but a loss for movie acting as Grant learned during filming. "She reduced acting to its simplest form. Grace made acting look easy, the way Joe Louis made boxing look easy, so simple. Sometimes you see an artist work and you say, 'Oh, I could do that.' It's only those who have worked the hardest and longest who can make it look that simple."
Grant's praise could extend to To Catch a Thief as well. Critics, searching for deep meaning and themes in Hitchcock's work, were put off by this movie's effervescence, all beautiful people in elegant costumes delivering sexy, suggestive dialogue in lush, Technicolor surroundings. It all looks so easy but Grant and Hitchcock both knew that such ease could only be achieved by masters who know their craft very well.

"And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes; there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying. There shall be no more pain, for the former things have passed away." –Revelation 21:4
Something is wrong, here. Castiel can sense it, even as he feels the urge to be worshipped, to protect those who will bow to him. Even as he feels the power that soars in him, feels the strength and the desires of every soul he has collected. He knows it is wrong, knows that this is not what he wants, not really. What he wants is to be accepted, for once, by someone he considers his family. What he wants is to let it end, now that he has finally stopped the Apocalypse once and for all. What he wants is to have his brothers back. What he wants is his life with Dean and Sam and Bobby.
What is he asking for? Love and idolization are so very different than what he truly yearns for. He would never ask that. He would never insinuate that he is God, that he is a better Father than the one that he has called to countless times, that he calls to even now.
Father, stop me. I have become that which must be destroyed. Father…please.
He sees Dean's fear and disbelief, can feel it like a weight in the seat of his core, where his Grace has become something more and still remains rotted and scarred. How long has he been this way? How long has his Grace been so ill? How could he do the things that he has done to get to this point?
He knows that he has been steeling himself for this for months, that he took precious moments to strengthen his resolve after Balthazar fell under the weight of his blade.
He wishes that it would stop hurting. He wishes he could just end it. What he once was and what he has become, they seem to be separate entities and are both warring for dominance within his essence.
For a moment, he sees himself letting go and there is peace and tranquility. There is divine wrath raining upon those who would dare to defy him. There is his name, the name that his Father gave him, and it is no more—it is lost to him. There is Dean, and Sam, and Bobby and yet—and yet they are not individual. They are all fragments of a whole, the Host that he will now govern.
"Cas—this isn't you. Please."
The Cas catches hold of what he was and he sees the humans he has claimed to be his kin have fallen to their knees. Good that they bow to me now, lest I have to destroy them.
No. They aren't bowing—he is forcing them down. The gravity of his power is holding them to the ground, where they belong.
When have I ever asked Dean for more than simply his attention?
He feels the souls rising up, feels their power swell within him. They're unstable, angry, violent. He struggles against it, barely notices as Dean is able to struggle up to his feet as he himself collapses to his knees, gripping the angel sword in hand. It will no longer kill him, but maybe…maybe if he…
I just want this to be over. I just want this to end.
It no longer matters how.
He wills what he can of the old him, the Cas he remembers but cannot properly cling to, to use the energies swirling inside him. He pulls at pieces of himself, all of it coming undone. When the sharp tip of the blade pierces his flesh, he feels it so intensely that he chokes on a sob. When it tears along his vessel's chest, he gasps and vibrates apart. The light within him, the power and the souls, they all start to bleed bleed bleed away.
"Cas! Stop! What the hell are you doing?"
Saving us. Saving us all, Dean. I'm doing what I must, what I should have already done.
He is no longer righteous. He is no longer faithful. He has no place as the angel he once was, and he certainly does not deserve what he has become. It is beyond him. He simply desires Cas again. No more Castiel. No more worry, responsibility. No more death.
The souls are leaking away, leaving him pooled on the floor of the compound only inches away from where his brother had fallen hours ago. He shivers, sobs, and comes undone. The pain is tremendous, it is shattering. | [

News corporations attract viewers’ attention in order to make money, basically benefiting themselves. Networks attract viewers to increase ratings, so that when they would get more advertisers, meaning more profit that they will obtain. News bias make audiences reflect upon the truth of the stories that are being portrayed. There are several deception stories in which the News denied on releasing these types of stories, but in truth, they really are exaggerated perspectives of their own. TV news simply reflects only on one side of the story, and leaves the viewer the other side of the story untold; this is the reason why TV news is biased.
I would definitely say that Comedy Central's Daily Show with Jon Stewart and the Colbert Report are part of the "media" that affects people’s opinion. These television shows are a way to provide comedic relief to the issues our economy faces; however, these shows still have an impact of how the viewer will understand an issue at hand. It is very difficult for anyone to be completely unbiased and with constantly hearing other people’s opinion through the media. We cannot make a decision of how “we” feel about the topic. Thus, democracy and a fair voting group become tainted.
The editorial “Hollow Claims about Fantasy Violence”, written by Richard Rhodes and published in the New York Times the 17th of September in the year 2000, argues that there is not link between exposure to media violence and the development of violent behavior. Rhodes discusses that many Organizations and Politicians blame media for aggressive behavior. Rhodes claims that violence is learned in personal violent environment. Rhodes’ intended audience is New York Times’ readers, and more specifically people who tend to read editorial. This audience is normally people between 30-60 years old, parents, and educated people who can afford the payment of this newspaper.
The Secret Message of a Super PAC While watching the tremendous amounts of political advertisements flow out of a family’s television every day, it is quite amazing to see how many accusations and career ending facts that many of our leading politicians are faced with. Advertisements like those from the super Political Action Committees (PAC) known as Restore Our Future. Newt Gingrich and Rick Perry are two of the politicians that are being scrutinized by the super PAC’s advertisement titled, Too Much, December 21 2011. The main argument that the ad makes is that Gingrich and Perry both are too liberal on immigration and have too much baggage on ethics, and the intended conservative audience would agree that the politicians are not fit for
To prove this point we will examine The O'Reilly Factor, The Colbert Report, and Nightly News. First off, what is fair and balanced? Is it reporting the news with "no spin (zone)" or perhaps it is being truthful,honest, and reporting the facts without exaggerating the details. Well Bill O' Reilly does not do any of that for he is opinionated and loud willing do anything to get his point across to the world. Maybe that why his show is the highest rated show of the three major US 24-hour cable news channels and also that he began the trend of opinion-oriented prime-time television.
When significant things happen or the nation is on alert, we as Americans rely and trust what news reporters, radio stations, and newspaper journalists have to say. However, current media nowadays tend to report with more biased opinions and less fact. Often times, we would hear about celebrities such as their engagements, scandals, DUI cases in which all are sold to catch the media’s attention. As a society, we seem to always focus our attention to things that are less important to our lives, instead of being more cautious and aware of news that can affect our daily lives. The televised newscast selected to compare is CNN.
Every episode reminds us that we live in such an amazing country that allows us to exercise our right of freedom of speech in any way possible.The show also targets celebrities and politicians to shows that they are just like everyone else. South Park has the unique ability to update its audience with current events going on in our country or worldwide that most would overlook. South Park takes hard news, adds satire with raunchy humor; which then creates interest from the public. It also helps that South Park has a bigger audience base than CNN as well. South Park provides us with in your face politics with no apologies.

Growth hormone (GH) deficiency is associated with increased sensitivity to insulin, but the molecular mechanisms involved in this association are poorly understood. In the current work, we have examined the consequences of the absence of the biological effects of GH on the first steps of the insulin signaling system in vivo in liver of mice with targeted disruption of the GH receptor/GH binding protein gene (GHR-KO mice). In these animals, circulating insulin concentrations are less than 4 microIU/ml, and glucose concentrations are low, concordant with a state of insulin hypersensitivity. The abundance and tyrosine phosphorylation state of the insulin receptor (IR), the IR substrate-1 (IRS-1), and Shc, the association between IRS-1 and the p85 subunit of phosphatidylinositol (PI) 3-kinase, the IRS-1- and the phosphotyrosine-associated PI 3-kinase in liver were examined. We found that, in liver of GHR-KO mice, the lack of GHR and GH eff! ects is associated with: (1) increased IR abundance, (2) increased insulin-stimulated IR tyrosine phosphorylation, (3) normal efficiency of IRS-1 and Shc tyrosine phosphorylation and (4) normal activation of PI 3-kinase by insulin. These alterations could represent an adaptation to the low insulin concentrations displayed by these animals, and may account for their increased insulin sensitivity.

Insulin secretion and glucose tolerance were studied in 20-week-old male and female offspring of rat dams maintained on an isocaloric 20% or 8% protein diet during pregnancy and lactation after transfer to the same diet at weaning. Protein-restricted male and female offspring were also weaned onto a 20% protein diet. In males, post-absorptive insulin concentrations were suppressed by protein restriction from conception to adulthood (by 41%; P<0.001); however, basal insulin levels were 2.6-fold higher (P<0.001) if protein restriction was limited to gestation and lactation. Post-absorptive insulinaemia in females was unaffected by early or sustained protein restriction, but was lower than for males in the control group and the group exposed to protein restriction during early life alone (by 40% (P<0.001) and 52% (P<0.001) respectively). Plasma insulin/blood glucose ratios were higher in males compared with females in both control and early protein-restricted groups (1.6-fold (P<0.05) and 2.3-fold (P<0.001) respectively). A positive linear relationship existed between mean ambient insulin and glucose concentrations in males (r=1.0) and females (r=0.9), but the gradient was 12.4-fold greater (P<0.01) in males. beta-Cell function was evaluated after intravenous glucose challenge. In males, the acute insulin response and the suprabasal 30-min area under the insulin curve were dramatically higher in rats exposed to protein restriction during gestation and lactation alone (2.6- and 2.8-fold respectively; P<0.001). In contrast, these parameters were lowered by extending the exposure to protein restriction to adulthood in males, and by either early or prolonged exposure to protein restriction in females. The insulin resistance index was increased (2.5-fold; P<0.001) in male, but not female, rats exposed to protein restriction during gestation and lactation alone, and was not increased by extending the period of protein restriction to adulthood in either sex. Thus the data have demonstrated gender-specific lowering of insulin sensitivity due to protein restriction during early life only. The insulinogenic index (insulin response in relation to prevailing glycaemia) was increased in male, but not female, rats exposed to protein restriction during gestation and lactation alone (3.0-fold; P<0.001). A modest decline in insulin secretion in the female groups exposed to protein restriction until either the end of lactation or adulthood was compensated by increased insulin sensitivity, as demonstrated by significant decreases in the insulin resistance index in both groups (by 48% and 52% respectively; P<0.05). Glucose disappearance rates did not differ between the male and female control or early protein-restricted groups but were higher in both male (31%; P<0.05) and female groups (46%; P<0.001) exposed to protein restriction from conception to adulthood. Marked gender differences in glucose-stimulated insulin secretion were not associated with gender differences with respect to glucose tolerance. Our data therefore demonstrated that exposure to protein restriction during early life alone leads to relative insulin resistance and hyperinsulinaemia in adulthood, but this relationship is gender specific, observed only in males, and glucose tolerance is maintained.

How to tell whether the filter press is running normally from the oil pressure state?
There is no oil in the fuel tank. Considering the transportation and other issues, the hydraulic oil in the fuel tank must be emptied when the new machine leaves the factory. How can there be pressure without oil? The editor of Donglong Chemical Machinery will explain the lower plate and frame filter press oil pump for you. Normal working oil pressure.
1. The hydraulic oil is not added enough, resulting in no oil absorption, and the hydraulic oil should be added according to the position indicated by the liquid level gauge.
2. The adjustment position of the upper limit pointer of the electric contact pressure gauge is low, adjust it to the appropriate position, and adjust the relief valve to make it reach the desired pressure.
3. The relief valve adjustment pressure is low, loosen the relief valve lock nut, rotate the relief valve handle (rotate inward to increase the oil pressure, rotate outward to reduce the oil pressure) to adjust the oil pressure, and the ordinary pressure gauge model is adjusted to the rated value Working pressure, the electric contact pressure gauge model is adjusted to be slightly higher than the rated working pressure.
4. After years of use (3-5 years) of the filter press, the sealing ring installed on the piston in the oil cylinder is worn, and the pressure will not rise.
5. If there is oil leakage on the oil road, the pressure will not go up.

The New Sociological Imagination
Pine Forge Press, 2006 M02 7 - 240 pages
C. Wright Mills′ classic The Sociological Imagination has inspired generations of students to study Sociology. However, the book is nearly half a century old. What would a book address, aiming to attract and inform students in the 21st century? This is the task that Steve Fuller sets himself in this major new invitation to study Sociology. The book:
This book sets the agenda for imagining sociology in the 21st century and will attract students and professionals alike.

Single-Channel Benchtop Optical Meter
Feb 2009Newport CorporationRequest Info
Irvine, Calif., Feb. 17, 2009 – Newport Corp. has expanded its optical power meter and detector family with the introduction of the 1928-C single-channel benchtop optical meter. The compact power meter interfaces with all of the company’s photodiode detectors, thermopiles and pyroelectric detectors.
It measures from 11 pW to 20 kW of optical power and from 7 µJ to 20 kJ of pulse energy. The fast 100-kHz sampling rate ensures that the pulse measurements are accurate and that any fluctuations in the continuous-wave power are not ignored.
It incorporates various filtering to make the reading more stable. Advanced features include a highly visible color display, graphing, a strip chart display, statistics, data storage via internal memory or USB flash drive, and an analog output interface. The meter does not have an internal fan to cool it, an advantage in applications where the vibration of a fan motor could interfere with stability in an experimental setup.
The optical meter is also equipped with several environmentally friendly features. The circuitry results in low energy consumption, and the standby mode saves energy when the meter is not being used. It is reactivated with the press of any button on the front panel. It can display irradiance in “sun” units, enabling photovoltaic researchers to use it as a complementary tool to a reference solar cell.
The 1928-C was developed for users who do not need to measure extremely low light levels.

My grandmother was a truly remarkable woman. She raised three children almost single-handedly with child like enthusiasm and unfailing love. Divorced after thirty-five years of marriage, she flourished in her new found freedom. At fifty, she returned to university and became a counsellor, officially. Before that, she unofficially supported, loved and cheered on the underdogs, the unloved and the untouchable for many years. Finally, at the age of seventy, she became Dr Ann Crawford. She would work in academia for the rest of her life, writing curriculum and teaching with a passion and care that is incomparable. I have never seen, and never will see, a person more dedicated to the happiness and success of other people.
Two years ago, she was diagnosed with Myelodysplastic syndrome, or for the uninitiated, pre-leukaemia. My mother received a phone call on the ninth of April and was told that my grandmother had progressed from having two percent leukaemia cells to fifty percent leukaemia cells and was given two weeks to live. At around ten am on Saturday the thirteenth, I arrived at the hospital to view my grandmother’s body.
She has left a significant body of academic work, incredibly valuable contributions to pastoral care work and has touched countless lives on a personal level. That is how most people will remember her. But few people will remember her for the things I admire her for.
In December of 2014, we watched my aunt die of liver failure. I watched as my grandmother nursed and eventually buried her daughter. The two of them had a tumultuous relationship, as my aunt was a tumultuous person. I myself had ridden the roller coaster of emotions that my aunt built and felt the rage, disappointment and heartbreak she inspired. I saw my grandmother shower her with nothing but love and support, despite everything she had been put through. I was beside her when she read a eulogy for her child, and I was supported by her strength. It was perhaps then that I realised what a truly powerful person she was. That she could bury a child and still inspire me with her courage
I spent time with her while she was on her death bed. I had the honour of taking down her final wishes; what she wanted done with her remains, the distribution of her academic work and how the celebration of her life would run. She sat on Death’s doorstep and waited patiently to be invited in. Here again, was her quiet courage. While her family grieved she was there, still a constant source of calm and love.
She only faltered for a moment. I pointed out that she wouldn’t live to see me graduate, and I asked if there was anything I could do. Her face only fell for a moment, but it wasn’t sadness at her inevitable absence. It was disappointment on my behalf. She knew, as she always did, what it meant to me that she would not be there, and as always she knew what to say.
“Don’tworry about it. I’ll be there.”
I’m lost without our family matriarch. My mother and I often remark that we have to remind ourselves that she’s dead. But I can think of no one better to take on the baton than my own mother. While she would agree that she is not as diplomatic, nor as calm as my grandmother was, she nonetheless is as selfless and courageous as her mother before her. They are both people I can count on to share their strength and their unwavering support.
My mother is a truly remarkable woman. She is clever, articulate and headstrong. I don’t know that she believes she can live up to her own mother’s legacy. I hope that she discovers just how capable she is, and how many good qualities she has inherited.
Sometimes, I can’t help but dread a future where my mother is gone, too. I hope it’s a long time before I have to feel lost like this again. Will I be able to fill the shoes, so well-worn by the remarkable women that have come before me? In the midst of my grief, I don’t know. But what a privilege to have these shining examples to follow, and to be surrounded by such a crowd of incredible women | [

Submicron-integrated plasmonic power splitter
Using plasmonic waveguide for interconnects application is very promising direction to achieve high density integration a good size compatibility with electronic devices. Thus, proposing compact and efficient functional plasmonic devices is or prime essential to achieve the required system functionalities. Power splitters are widely used as one of the important component of the optical interconnects and integrated photonic and plasmonics devices. We propose a simple, ultra compact and wideband balanced power divider. The advantage of this device is compactness and ability to split the power over wideband with negligible imbalance. The device is based on plasmonic slot waveguide configuration and has submicron total foot print. To achieve the proposed optimized design, a simple and novel analytical model is utilized for modelling the behavior or any plasmonic structure using circuit model. © 2014 SPIE.

Every Jaw-Dropping Moment From Paula Abdul's BBMAs Performance
By Taylor Fields
May 2, 2019
Is Paula Abdul human? The pop icon held absolutely NOTHING back when she performed during the 2019 Billboard Music Awards and we found all the GIFs to prove it.
During her impressive choreography-packed performance, Abdul treated everyone watching to several of her biggest hits including "Straight Up," "Opposites Attract," and "Cold Hearted," while expertly executing the most jaw-dropping dance moves you've ever seen.
Abdul also made reference to her upcoming, just-announced Las Vegas residency, Paula Abdul: Forever Your Girl, which kicks off this August. She recently said of the forthcoming set of shows, "I love telling stories through music and dance, and engaging with the audience,” she says. “I'm taking the essence of the classic choreography that has become part of my legacy and I want to have a real experience with the audience so they leave knowing me a bit more."
No doubt Paula's Billboard Music Awards performance was a sneak peek at what fans can expect. Let's take a closer look at what went down (and up), shall we?
First of all, she got, shall we say, close with the audience.
She literally, accidentally hit Julianne Hough it the face with her hat... and Julianne was ecstatic.
Second of all... WHAT.
HOW IS SHE DOING THIS?!
SHE RECREATED ONE OF THE MOST ICONIC MUSIC VIDEOS OF ALL TIME.
She literally got dragged while on stage... in the best way.

Jan 01, 2020· PIR stands for Pyroelectic Infrared Radial Sensor or Passive Infrared Sensor. PIR is an electronic sensor which detects the changes in the infrared light across certain distance and gives out an electrical signal at its output in response to a detected IR signal. It can detect any infrared emitting object such as human beings or animals if it...
PIR sensors are rather generic and for the most part vary only in price and sensitivity. Most of the real magic happens with the optics. This is a pretty good idea for manufacturing: the PIR sensor and circuitry is fixed and costs a few dollars. The lens costs only a few cents and can change the breadth, range, sensing pattern, very easily.
PIR Motion Sensor With Arduino in Tinkercad: Let''s learn to sense movement in a room with a PIR motion sensor and Arduino''s digital input. We''ll connect up a circuit using a breadboard and use some simple Arduino code to control a single LED. We''ll use Tinkercad Circuits to simulate the circui…
Aug 03, 2019· PIR sensors are commonly used in security alarms and automatic lighting applications. Technically, PIR is made of a pyroelectric sensor, which is able to detect different levels of infrared radiation. For example, Everything emits varied level radiation and the level of radiation will increase with the increase of the object’s temperature.
Dec 12, 2008· PIR (Passive Infrared Receiver) merupakan sebuah sensor berbasiskan infrared. Akan tetapi, tidak seperti sensor infrared kebanyakan yang terdiri dari IR LED dan fototransistor. PIR tidak memancarkan apapun seperti IR LED. Sesuai dengan namanya ‘Passive’, sensor ini hanya merespon energi dari pancaran sinar inframerah pasif yang dimiliki oleh setiap benda yang terdeteksi olehnya.
Jun 02, 2018· Deskripsi PIR Sensor PIR merupakan sensor yang dapat mendeteksi pergerakan, dalam hal ini sensor PIR banyak digunakan untuk mengetahui apakah ada pergerakan manusia dalam daerah yang mampu dijangkau oleh sensor PIR.

PIR Motion Sensors. PIR motion sensors, albeit called sensors, are configured as switches in Tasmota since they basically report motion ( 1) or no motion ( 0) to the device. Most PIR''s are single wire and they require connecting to VCC, GND and one GPIO. In this guide we will use GPIO13 as the pin that the PIR output is connected to.

The Troubling Calculus of Human Value
For most of us we use only the numerical literacy necessary to stay employed. And even fewer of us think about numbers in a way where we can see their intrinsic value. We think about a million dollars, in a very loose, abstract way.
Pretty much any number after a thousand becomes mostly symbolic in our heads, rarely representative of the actual value in comparison to anything we could actually measure with our hands. | [

What is DISA?
DISA (Direct Inward System Access) is a VoIP feature that allows external callers to utilize internal PBX features on specific CO lines by entering a special code.
In the Yeastar phone system, DISA enables users to make calls via the PBX’s trunks from external sources, such as a mobile phone. If individuals outside the office want to utilize the company’s phone lines, DISA enables them to do so just like the system extensions. This cost-effective solution leverages the company’s PBX resources instead of making direct calls, resulting in significant savings.
How does it work in Yeastar phone system?
In Yeastar phone system, DISA operates by configuring the feature with a access pin code and authentication process.
Once set up, external users can make an inbound call and enter the designated DISA pin code. Upon successful authentication, the system responds to the incoming call with a dial tone, allowing the users to dial the desired external number they wish to call.

Jesse Estrada, with the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection, says firefighters aren’t just worried about the weather:
Ninety five percent of the fires in CDF’s jurisdiction are usually known to be of human cause.
Estrada says there is fire danger in both Northern and Southern California. In the North, lightening strikes on trees are causing problems. In the South, an abundance of dry grass and trees is providing possible tinder for fires. | [

Cholla Bay 4 Life
The summer that happened was because they were letting water out of damn upriver I believe somewhere on Tohono Oodem land. Also believe that was the summer that we had a real active monsoon. Took a girl that I dated for a couple of months down in late August or first week of September and when we went to go home at 8am we drove all the way to the border, couldn't get by on that secondary route and because they were in the middle of construction on main bridge we had to turn around and go all the way back to RP. Girl didn't want to stay another night so we returned LA COSTERA via San Luis. Hour wait there which is normal for San Luis and then on to Yuma, Phx. All in all, we got back to Scottsdale at 750pm at night. 12 hour one way trip.... Never again. Coastal highway was fun though...Any one remember the bridge that got washed out several years ago. Great short cut to avoid the town. Well the bridge is now rebuilt, in excellent condition, with lights and they have even graded the water bed to allow the water flow below it less likely to rise and go over the new bridge. I hate to say it but it is quite a good looking bridge. Amazing what you discover when you can't travel down to RP for months on end. | [

Cranberries are superfood filled with nutrients. These are delicious fruits, served as casseroles, dessert. Cranberry sauce is a traditional companion at Christmas and Thanksgiving dinner. This deep red, intense-colored berry is packed with vitamins and antioxidants. But can our guinea pigs eat cranberries? Let’s find out.
Guinea pigs can eat cranberries along with their skin. Avoid serving its jam, jelly, and sauce as those are terrible for their health. Cranberries contain a moderate amount of Vitamin C, dietary fiber, and manganese, which is vital for them. But due to its high sugar content, a small serving is crucial.
Unlike other berries, cranberries are hard, sour, and bitter. Its acidic taste beats its sweetness. Thus, some guinea pigs enjoy this while others don’t.
Feeding your guinea pig a healthy diet is crucial for their well-being. Thus, it is important that you learn everything about their diet and what goes into it. So, let’s get right into it.
Are guinea pigs allergic to cranberries?
No, guinea pigs are not allergic to cranberries.
Cranberries are unlikely to cause any sort of adverse effect. It is safe for them, till you feed them in moderation.
If you are feeding cranberries to your guinea pig for the first time, then keep an eye on their health for 24 hours.
And if you see any sign of discomfort like diarrhea, stomach ache, etc then you can remove cranberries out of their diet.
However, for the most part, you should not face any problem in feeding cranberries to your guinea pigs.
Do guinea pigs like cranberries?
Yes, guinea pigs like cranberries.
Cranberries have a deep red color, which makes them look intense and attractive. They usually like the taste of cranberries.
Cranberries give them bittersweet taste, which is a new and different taste from usual food.
It provides their mouth a blast and fantastic kind of feeling, which makes feeding fun.
Is Cranberry Toxic To Guinea Pigs?
No, cranberry is not at all toxic to guinea pigs.
Cranberries are usually safe for them. However, excess feeding can create serious health problems, such as obesity, diabetes.
Let us have a look at its adverse health effect:
- Digestion problem: Cranberries have sugar, carbs, and water. Due to the presence of these element guinea pigs can suffer from a digestive problem. Our little furry friend has a weak tummy, so they cannot process any kind of sugar and complex carbs in high amounts. So too much of cranberries can lead to stomach ache and indigestion.
- Diarrhea and constipation problems: Due to high-level sugar and carbs, health problems such as diarrhea and constipation can occur.
- Diabetes: Cranberry is naturally sweet and contains a high amount of sugar. Excess of them can lead to diabetes.
- Develops kidney stones: Cranberry may lead to a higher concentration of oxalate in urine. That could aid the formation of kidney stones in our guinea pigs.
You should not make cranberry as their daily diet. It does have the presence of all essential nutrients but with sugar, which is not suitable for guinea pig’s health.
Also, do not feed cranberry with other sweet fruits and vegetables.
Now let’s know how cranberries can be beneficial for guinea pigs.
Cranberry Health Benefits to guinea pigs?
Cranberry offers a range of benefits to guinea pigs. They are an excellent source of vitamins and antioxidants that are productive and essential for guinea pig’s growth and health.
Cranberry can benefit guinea pigs in the following ways:
- Managing UTIs: Cranberry has a high level of antioxidants proanthocyanidins (PACs), which helps prevent bacteria from sticking to the urinary walls. Thus, cranberry helps in preventing UTIs in guinea pigs.
- Reduces the risk of cardiovascular disease: Adding cranberry in guinea pig’s diet helps them manage the risk of heart diseases. It helps maintain systolic blood pressure, which is the blood pressure during a contraction of the heart muscle.
- Studies have also shown that cranberry also helps manage body mass index and improve levels of high-density lipoprotein.
- Reduces the risk of cancer: Compound present in cranberry has several beneficial effects on cancer-causing cells such as:
- Causing the death of cancer cells.
- Reduce the growth of cancer cells.
- Improves oral health: Proanthocyanidins (PACs) in cranberry help prevent the bacteria from sticking together in guinea pig’s teeth. It also helps in preventing gum disease.
- Presence of Vitamin C: Vitamin C is primary for guinea pigs. They need Vitamin C every day as they cannot produce it by themselves. Vitamin C can | [

Up to 600 dolphins have washed up on beaches along the Atlantic coast of France since the start of 2019. Although dead dolphins wash up on beaches in France every year, scientists say the situation is alarming.
Two different surveys, according to The Local, showed the number of carcasses found this year is between 400 and 600. Scientists said even 400 is higher than any previous year, adding the situation is alarming.
According to the French environmental charity France Nature Environnement (FNE), 93% of the found carcasses show signs that they have been captured by fishing vessels and their equipment such as mutilations, amputations and fractured jaws.
Researchers say these deaths could also threaten dolphin populations in the years to come, The Local reports.

Gevo and LANL are looking to develop a low-cost, catalytic technology that would be bolted-on to Gevo's existing isobutanol-to-hydrocarbons process to produce high energy density fuels (HEDFs). With the successful scale-up of this technology, it is believed that Gevo's HEDFs could be produced at a lower cost than the petroleum-based equivalent. If this project is successful in scaling HEDFs cost-effectively, there may be an even broader application in the general aviation sector, enabling higher energy density jet fuel that would provide superior mileage to traditional aviation fuels.
Gevo produces isobutanol, ethanol and high-value animal feed in Luverne, Minnesota, and has developed technology to produce hydrocarbon products from renewable alcohols. The company also operates a biorefinery in Silsbee, Texas, in collaboration with South Hampton Resources Inc., to produce renewable jet fuel, octane, and ingredients for plastics.

ETI programme manager Geraint Evans said: "Biomass is already one of the largest and most versatile sources of renewable energy in the UK. To keep the UK on the trajectory for scaling up domestic biomass production into the 2050s, there should be a steady increase in the planting of second generation bioenergy crops on marginal arable land or appropriate grassland in the UK by about 30,000ha per year.
Steadily increasing the planting of bioenergy crops in the UK would allow the sector to develop best practices. This approach will also help the sector monitor and manage impacts on other markets and the wider environment more effectively."

The five-year-old had been trained by Caroline to ring 999 in the event of her falling ill as she suffers from a rare neurological disorder which can cause her to lose consciousness in seconds.
So when Caroline suffered an attack at about 8.45pm that day, Leo used his mum’s phone to make the call that would save her life.
Speaking clearly to North East Ambulance Service (NEAS) call handler Lynn Worthington-Bianchi, Leo told her his address in Crook and that his mum was ill.
He then greeted police officers PC Scott Ruddick and PC Craig Mcguire, who went into the house and took over until paramedics arrived.
Caroline has now made a full recovery from the latest attack and was joined by other family members including Leo’s dad, Michael Cooper, and grandparents, for a special assembly at Sunnybrow Primary School in his honour on Friday.
PCSO Katie Martin, who was on shift at the time of the call, was joined by Inspector Ed Turner to present Leo with his Young Hero Award – a force-wide award which recognises young people who have gone above and beyond to make a difference.
The pair also talked to the children about how to call 999 and the importance of using it in an emergency before being joined by call handler Lynn and firefighter, Peter Chisholm, who all presented Leo with a variety of gifts and certificates.
Insp Turner said: “Leo is a fantastic young man and thoroughly deserves to be crowned a Young Hero. Well done Leo!”
Lynn added: “It’s been a joy to meet Leo as we rarely get to meet the people we help as call handlers. He’s a lovely boy and I’ve really enjoyed being able to recognise him on behalf of NEAS.”
Peter, who is watch manager at Crook and presented Leo with his own junior fireman’s uniform, said: “We have loved spending time with Leo today and presenting him with some goodies.”
His crew treated the children to a special tour of one of their fire engines, with Leo getting the first chance to turn on the sirens and beep the horn.
Leo’s story is now being made into a film by Caroline’s great uncle, Chris Anderson, who runs the film company, Crackin Toast, with his wife Rosie.
Head teacher Suzanne Binks said: “We are all really proud of Leo, he’s a real young hero.
“He’s a lovely young man and we think the world of him. We all loved learning about 999 too which is a really important message.” | [

The work is being carried out by Russia's NPO Pribor research and industrial association, which is affiliated with Rostec subsidiary TechMash (Russia's largest ammunition manufacturer), and is still in its early stages, with no projected initial operational capability (IOC) as yet.
The new Russian 57 mm ammunition will probably be along similar lines to the Rheinmetall Air Defence Oerlikon AHEAD (Advanced Hit Efficiency and Destruction) 35 mm ammunition, which is used by a number of air defence weapons. AHEAD 35 mm is programmed as it leaves the weapon and contains a number of small submunitions that are ejected at the correct time of flight in front of the target.
The Russian 57 mm round would be for a new mobile air defence weapon that is currently being developed as the Derivatsiya - PVO anti-aircraft artillery system, or ZAK-57. This is based on a modified BMP-3 infantry fighting vehicle fitted with a brand new turret.
The Derivatsiya's 57 mm cannon is probably the same as that installed in the ASU-220M Baikal remote-controlled turret (RCT), which has been developed by the Burevestnik Central Research Institute, part of the UralVagonZavod group. The ASU-220M RCT is also armed with a 7.62 mm PKTM co-axial machine gun (MG) and the weapons are coupled to a computerised fire control system (FCS), with both crew members provided with stabilised day/night sights incorporating a laser rangefinder.
The AU-220M turret has already been shown installed on a modified BMP-3 IFV hull and has been marketed to a number of countries overseas, especially in the Middle East.
Russian sources have confirmed that in addition to firing conventional natures of 57 mm ammunition it was also fire a guided 57 mm round to enable targets to be engaged at ranges beyond the 57 mm weapon's direct-fire range, which is quoted as 12 km when fired horizontally and up to 8 km when fired vertically. | [

Interfaces with subtle difference in atomic and electronic structures in perovskite ABO3 heterostructures often yield intriguingly different properties, yet their exact roles remain elusive. In this article, we report an integrated study of unusual transport, magnetic, and structural properties of Pr0.67Sr0.33MnO3 (PSMO) films and La0.67Sr0.33MnO3 (LSMO) films of various thicknesses on SrTiO3 (STO) substrate. In particular, using atomically resolved imaging and electron energy-loss spectroscopy (EELS), we measured interface related local lattice distortion, BO6 octahedral rotation and cation-anion displacement induced polarization. In the very thin PSMO film, an unexpected interface-induced ferromagnetic polaronic insulator phase was observed during the cubic-to-tetragonal phase transition of the substrate STO, due to the enhanced electron-phonon interaction and atomic disorder in the film. On the other hand, for the very thin LSMO films we observed a remarkably deep polarization in non-ferroelectric STO substrate near the interface. Combining the experimental results with first principles calculations, we propose that the observed deep polarization is induced by an electric field originating from oxygen vacancies that extend beyond a dozen unit-cells from the interface, thus providing important evidence of the role of defects in the emergent interface properties of transition metal oxides. | [

Restylane is a dermal filler made of hyaluronic acid. Hyaluronic acid is a natural substance that already exists in the human body. It attracts and binds to water, which plumps up the skin and reduces the appearance of wrinkles. Restylane is FDA-approved for facial wrinkles and folds.
Restylane is used to treat smile lines (nasolabial folds), marionette lines, and vertical lip lines. Restylane can also be used to fill hollow cheeks and aging hands.
Restylane filler results are typically seen immediately after the treatment. Some patients notice results after one treatment, while others require a follow-up treatment to achieve their desired results.
Restylane fillers help restore youthful fullness to the face by smoothing away wrinkles and folds. Restylane can also be used to add volume to the lips, enhancing their shape.
Restylane is an ideal treatment option for patients looking to restore youthful volume and fullness to their face and lips. The hyaluronic acid-based formula of Restylane works to plump and smooth out wrinkles, adding subtle volume to targeted areas.
Restylane can be used to address the following concerns:
- Stubborn Nasolabial Folds
- Thin Lips
- Thin, Wrinkled Skin Around Mouth and Nose
Restylane fillers are made of hyaluronic acid, which is a naturally occurring substance in your skin. Hyaluronic acid replenishes moisture in the skin, and it also helps your skin retain its natural collagen. Over time, your hyaluronic acid levels decrease, resulting in fine lines, wrinkles, and folds.
During the procedure, one of our dentists will carefully inject the Restylane filler into target areas on your face. The procedure takes about 30 minutes, and most patients experience minimal to no discomfort.
Once you’ve had your Restylane® treatment, your treatment provider will talk to you about what you can expect. This includes when you should schedule the next treatment, as well as what you should and should not do after your procedure.
Restylane® will normally begin to work right away. Within a few days after your treatment, you should notice that your wrinkles are much less noticeable. Most patients get the best results after their first treatment. | [

The singer doesn’t believe that Justin really loves his bride.
As told to the reporter
edition Hollywoodlife one of the girlfriends Selena Gomez, the singer in shock
from news about the engagement of Justin Bieber with Hailey Baldwin. Selena still can’t believe that Justin, with whom she
broke up a little over three months ago, ready to marry someone else! After all
at parting, he cried, he swore eternal love to her and claimed that he could not
live without her…
Selena was convinced that Justin
couldn’t fall in love again so soon and so seriously. She is sure that he actually just wants
to force her to torture, cruelly forcing him to be jealous of Haley. At the same time — and even
to prove that he really had time to Mature and is ready to be married
man. As for his betrothal, the betrothal is not a wedding.
Engagement can and break!
Recall, Selena and Justin,
which last met intermittently for three years, had resumed its
novel last fall. In order to reunite with Bieber
I broke up with her former boyfriend — Abel Thisteam that literally
wore it on my hands, and whom she was going to marry. While fans
Selena took solace in the hope that they will reconcile. Because, as you hinted then
singer, she did not consider her breakup with Bieber final. She thought that perhaps
they just need time to sort out their relationships and in themselves.

Effectiveness of Androgen-Deprivation Therapy and Radiotherapy for Older Men With Locally Advanced Prostate Cancer. By Bekelman et al 2015
Key sentence from the paper: “[W]e found that ADT plus RT was associated with survival benefits of similar magnitude in elderly men age 76 to 85 years with locally advanced prostate cancer and older men age 65 to 85 years with screen-detected high–risk prostate cancer.”
For the full abstract, see: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25559808
Commentary: Often when a patient is elderly, say, 80 years old, and found to have locally advanced prostate cancer (i.e., with his disease extending beyond the confines of his prostate gland) he is offered ADT as a solitary treatment. This study suggests that, if such patients have no other serious comorbidities, they will benefit from using some radiotherapy along with the ADT.

White Lines is a wild ride. It's a fast-paced, hedonistic, drug-laced mystery set against the backdrop of some of the world's most beautiful holiday destinations. The trailer for the Netflix series (which is available to stream now), starts off bold, showing off copious amounts of drugs, blood, sex, and, somewhere amidst that perfect storm, murder. It all feels like something out of an edgy music video, but there's still one burning question: is White Lines based on a true story?
The story focuses on one woman's search for the truth regarding her deceased brother. Zoe (Laura Haddock), travels to Ibiza to search for answers after the body of her missing brother, a famous DJ, turns up in Ibiza 20 years after his disappearance. She sets out to retrace his final steps, diving deeper and deeper into the holiday destination's lurid club scene and her brother's friend group, none of whom she trusts to give her a straight answer about her late brother.
The show seems to promise a great many twists and turns, but as far as true-to-life connections go, there don't appear to be any. Details surrounding the show have remained mum, as have any real-life inspirations. But the creator behind White Lines, Álex Pina, is no stranger to coming up with bombastic stories, either. His work on the thief-focused smash hit Money Heist (or La Casa de Papel) shows that he's more than up for the cllange of creating stories featuring seedy underbellies and unsavory types. White Lines is just the latest project he's working on for Netflix. | [

CuteCircuit: smart clothes on the catwalk at Maker Faire Rome
Smart clothes will make a difference at Maker Faire Rome with the exclusive catwalk that took place on the night of October 2. CuteCircuit amazed you with jackets, dresses, and skirts with LED weaving that can be controlled with a simple iPhone app.
These are examples of truly “interactive” and “intelligent” clothing capable of integrating new functionality with fashion through the use of technological fabrics and microelectronics. That was the future fashion event, indeed!
CuteCircuit is headquartered in Shoreditch, artistic heart of London, where the Creative Director Francesca Rosella, and CEO Ryan Genz are the design duo behind all of CuteCircuit’s amazing creations. They launched a Prêt-á-Porter line in 2010, bringing the first-ever technologically infused ready to wear to major fashion retailers.
CuteCircuit creations showed up on October 2 at 8:30 PM in the Cavea of the Auditorium Parco della Musica. The smart clothes were the protagonists of this exceptional gala event. One of the CuteCircuit products, the Hug Shirt, was recognized as one of the best inventions of the year by Time Magazine.
The latest creation, the GalaxyDress, the largest wearable display in the world, is currently on display at the Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago as part of the Fastforward show and was acquired for the museum’s permanent collection. | [

One of London’s biggest bus operators, Go-Ahead, has taken delivery of 39 new ultra-low emissions buses built as partnership with Alexander Dennis Ltd (ADL) and BAE Systems. How far is London ahead of Dublin in alternatively fuelled public bus transport. Indeed most UK cities are so far ahead, it should be questioned.
The first 39 Enviro400H double-deck buses with Series-E hybrid technology were delivered to Go-Ahead London last week.
The new model uses ultra-capacitor energy storage to reduce lifecycle costs and has achieved Ultra Low Emission Bus certification with 37 per cent lower emissions than conventional diesel buses.
Richard Harrington, Go-Ahead London Engineering Director, said, “With 245 [of them] already in our fleet, we know ADL and BAE Systems’ Enviro400H helps us improve London’s air quality. This experience gave us the confidence to place a volume order for the new Series-E version and we look forward to recognising its improved fuel economy and lower cost of ownership.”
The Series-E maintains the hybrid system in which the diesel engine acts only as a generator to produce energy for the electric drivetrain. This now uses a lighter and more compact motor, which no longer requires a speed reducing gearbox, increasing efficiency and minimising wear.
Due to this, and other improvements, it has been predicted that over 10 years, costs will be reduced by 53 per cent.
Passengers will enjoy smooth acceleration and braking, while pedestrians and local residents can benefit from the arrive-and-go mode which turns off the engine at low speed and at bus stops; reducing noise pollution and emissions.
The first 39 buses have gone into service on Transport for London route 36 between Queen’s Park and New Cross Gate. Another 26 are on order for routes 77 and 87.
Matthew Lawrence, BAE Systems Business Development Manager, said, “With Ultra Low Emission Bus certification, the Enviro400H with Series-E technology and ultra-capacitor energy storage not only suits London operators, but gives bus companies around the country the opportunity to apply for Department for Transport funding with a proven solution supported by existing infrastructure.” | [

Women Stop Multitasking: It Will Leave You Exhausted, Stressed And Dissatisfied
Various studies have proved that the women’s brain has been designed to handle multiple tasks simultaneously. Also, studies claim that women are good in socializing even in a busy atmosphere and she can switch from one task to another quickly in an organized manner.
WOW! It feels so good to read this. It has given females, one more reason to boast over themselves.
But don’t you think that the crown of multitasking is a beautiful hat society had made us wear or we ourselves have chosen to wear it. But, at the end, we are left exhausted and dissatisfied.
Once I had a hot discussion on this topic with my girlfriends. And I found every one of us, including me, multitasks.
Our discussion made us realize a truth that females today have become a part of an unwanted competition. We live under the pressure to be a perfect wife and a perfect mother. Also, we want a successful and wonderful career. We manage home, office, husbands, kid and relatives. And to be successful, we try to keep all of them together. We want to prove ourselves best in front of judging society. This desire has made our ‘to do work ‘ list very long. To complete all tasks we have to multitask.
But the question is, does multitasking helps???
There is a Russian proverb that if you try to chase two rabbits, You will end up catching none.
Many times I while talking to my client also am simultaneously writing an article and feeding my baby.
Somehow I manage to complete all the work together. But I found that most of the time I was unable to complete all these tasks properly. There were errors in my articles because of which I have to give an extra half hour to editing. My baby is half fed and becomes cranky. My attention shifts while I am talking to the clients and the flow of discussion interrupts.
Thus, my personal experience says that multitasking has its drawbacks. It affects either the quality of work and its output.
Same was the case of most of my other girlfriends. Even if they were able to accomplish more than they expected, they were unable to focus on anyone. At the end, the work productivity was affected and became a cause of dissatisfaction and stress. Thus, multitasking instead of our tool for success at the end leaves us strained, stressed and unsatisfied.
Research has shown that our brain is good at switching rapidly from one task to another fast but it can process only activity properly at a time. We, women, need to understand that we are not superhuman. Our brain cannot work haphazardly. If we will force it to do so it will get tired soon. Multitasking for a long time will only leave you scattered, messed up and frustrated. It may make you miss out important tasks. On the other hand, if you are doing one thing at a time with full concentration you will find that you will take almost same or even less time in completing all your tasks than the time you invested in multitasking. Also, the quality of task improves.
It’s a mother’s choice to be a stay at home mom, work at home mom or a working mom. But if you want to do something productive plan your schedule according to priorities and then concentrate on one task and try to complete it first. Better not to juggle but try to make a balance. This will help you manage different roles played by you as well as your life effectively. Also, we women need to understand that ideal life is impossible. We cannot attain perfection in every field. So stop worrying about judgments and your image in front of others. Be yourself, but stay focused. | [

So I've used my new sewing machines for two projects this week!
First, I made curtains for my bathroom. Nothing overly difficult, just hemmed some fabric, mostly to get a feel for the machine.
Second, I used this tutorial from Stitched In Color (which is one of my favorite blogs to read) to make a quilted pillow cover. This is the first time I've EVER quilted anything, so of course I dove right in and free motion quilted both pillow top and bottom. I tried to do this looped meandering stitch, but it is far from perfect. I chose thread that matched the fabric so the many imperfections are not really noticeable. Also instead of making a LOVE pillow (I'm mostly an ant-Valentine's Day type), I stitched part of my blog header onto it because I really like that design. The zipper isn't great, but the invisible zipper tutorial within the pillow tutorial is phenomenal and I suggest everyone bookmark it for future reference!
(this is the best picture I could get of the quilting =/)
Next up is a quilted chalk bucket that my friend Lauren in Nashville helped draft a pattern for! | [

Elecnor has won the contract to build a wind farm in the Magallanes and Chilean Antarctica Region of Chile, around 20 km north of the city of Punta Arenas (Cabo Negro), for the “Vientos Patagónicos SpA” power company formed by the Chilean state-owned firm ENAP and Pecket Energy S.A.-
The Vientos Patagónicos wind farm entails investment of around USD 22 million and includes the installation of three 69-metre turbines, each with a capacity of 3.45 MW, which will add just over 10 MW to the Regional Electricity System. The turbines, in line with industry standards, will have an estimated lifespan of 20 years.
Construction of the plant, on an EPC basis, will commence in the first quarter of 2019 and is slated to conclude at the end of the same year. According to ENAP, "this new project will contribute to the desired diversification of the energy matrix of Magallanes, enabling it to increase its use of renewable energy from 2% to 20%".
The project also has the backing of the Regional Government, which will contribute approximately USD five million via the National Regional Development Fund (FNDR). This project follows the recent construction by Elecnor of the San Juan wind farm.
This facility has a total installed capacity of 184.8 MW and is located in the Atacama Region.
These projects boost the Elecnor Group's activity in a country where non-conventional renewable energy projects (NCRE) have increased significantly over the past few years and are projected to account for 20% of total generation by 2025.
Elecnor reported a consolidated net profit of EUR 54.2 million for the first nine months of 2018, up 4.1% from EUR 52.1 million for the same period a year earlier. This growth was underpinned by the strong performances of the Infrastructure and Concessions businesses, the Group's two core mutually-enriching business areas.
At 30 September, Elecnor's consolidated sales totalled EUR 1,586.6 million, similar to the figure for the same period a year earlier of 1,585.4 million. Of total sales, 57% was achieved in international markets and 43% in the domestic arena.
The strong showing at international level is largely due to the activity of the Group's US subsidiary Elecnor Hawkeye, the construction of a wind farm in the Dominican Republic and two biomass plants in Portugal and the contribution of its wind farms in Australia. All complemented by the larger sales posted by the Infrastructure business in the domestic market, in particular in sectors such as telecommunications and power distribution.
The Spanish Concessions business saw its sales increase thanks to the strong production data of Spanish wind farms and the start-up of the revamped Malpica wind farm. The Concessions business outside Spain also posted improved sales year-on-year largely as a result of the start-up of the Charrua-Ancoa and Cantareira transmission lines in Chile and Brazil respectively.
At 30 September, the backlog stood at EUR 2,226 million, an increase of 3% from EUR 2,160 million at the end of 2017. Of this total, 78% (EUR 1,729 million) are international and the remaining 22% (EUR 497 million) domestic projects.
With a solid order backlog, the Elecnor Group is maintaining its overall 2018 target of surpassing last year's results.
Elecnor is one of the leading corporations in project development, construction and operation through two major mutually-enriching business areas: Infrastructure and Concessions.
Elecnor is firmly committed to the societies where it operates and to all its stakeholders, in order to promote a better future for coming generations. | [

Who or what can explain the rise and rise of Clive Palmer? Is his support a reaction to a crisis in public confidence in the major parties or does it say something about how our political culture is changing? Does it merely tell us that money can take you a long way, if you spread it around enough? And what is Palmer ‘about’, in political terms – other than his own business interests? Is he a dangerous extremist, or just a quirky opportunist flash in the pan? Is he Silvio Berlusconi, or just Joh Bjelke-Petersen?
Also, corruption has suddenly become a major theme in Australian political debate. Most of it is confined to New South Wales but even so both major parties are involved. Does this mean that our politicians are more corrupt than they've ever been or are they now just getting caught?

Now streaming on:
Werner Herzog made five films starring Klaus Kinski. No other director ever worked with him more than once. Midway in their first film, "Aguirre, the Wrath of God" (1973), Kinski threatened to walk off the set, deep in the Amazon rain forest, and Herzog said he would shoot him dead if he did. Kinski claims in his autobiography that he had the gun, not Herzog.
Herzog says that's a lie. Kinski describes Herzog in the book as a "nasty, sadistic, treacherous, cowardly creep." Herzog says in the film that Kinski knew his autobiography would not sell unless he said shocking things--so Herzog helped him look up vile words he could use in describing the director.
And so it goes on, almost a decade after Kinski's death, the unending love-hate relationship between the visionary German filmmaker and his muse and nemesis in five films. Herzog's new documentary "My Best Fiend" traces their history together. They had one of the most fruitful and troubled relationships of any director-actor team.
Together they made "Aguirre," about a mad conquistador in the Peruvian jungle; "Fitzcarraldo," about a man who used block-and-tackle to pull a steamship from one Amazonian river system to another; "Nosferatu" (1979), inspired by Murnau's silent vampire classic; "Woyzeck" (1979), about a 19th century army private who seems mad to others because he sees the world in his own alternative way, and "Cobra Verde" (1988), about a slave trader in Africa. All of their collaborations contain extraordinary images, but the sight of Kinski running wild inside an army of naked, spear-carrying amazons in "Cobra Verde" may be the strangest.
Reviewing "Woyzeck," I wrote: "It is almost impossible to imagine Kinski without Herzog; reflect that this `unforgettable' actor made more than 170 films for other directors--and we can hardly remember a one." Consider, too, that their strange bond began long before Herzog stood behind a camera.
Herzog told me how they met. When he was 12, he said, "I was playing in the courtyard of the building where we lived in Munich, and I looked up and saw this man striding past, and I knew at that moment that my destiny was to direct films, and that he would be the actor." Kinski was known for his scorn of both films and acting, and claimed to choose projects entirely on the basis of how comfortable he would be on the location. Yet when Herzog summoned him to the rain forest for "Aguirre," where he would have to march through the jungle wearing Spanish armor and end up on a sinking raft with gibbering monkeys, he accepted. Why? I asked him once, and he replied grimly: "It was my fate." Herzog believes in shooting on location, arguing that specific places have a voodoo that penetrates the film. "Fitzcarraldo" could have been shot in comfort, not 900 miles up the Amazon, with special effects and a model boat--but Herzog insisted on isolating his crew, and in hauling a real boat up a real hill. When engineers warned him the ropes would snap and cut everyone in two, he dismissed the engineers. That's all the more intriguing when you learn that Kinski was even more hated than Herzog on the location.
In "My Best Fiend," Herzog recalls that local Indians came to him with an offer to kill Kinski. "I needed Kinski for a few more shots, so I turned them down," he says. "I have always regretted that I lost that opportunity." He learned early about Kinski's towering rages. The actor actually lived for several months in the same flat with Herzog's family, and once locked himself in the bathroom for two days, screaming all the while and reducing the porcelain fixtures "to grains the size of sand." Only once, on "Aguirre," was he able to fully contain his anger in his character--perhaps because Aguirre was as mad as Kinski--and there he gave one of the great performances in the cinema. Herzog revisits the original locations, recalling fights they had and showing the specific scenes that were shot just afterward.
There must have been good times, too, although Herzog only shows one of them--a happy day at the Telluride Film Festival. "My Best Fiend" suffers a little by not having footage to cover more of Herzog's sharpest memories (Les Blank's legendary documentary "Burden of Dreams," shot on location during "Fitzcarral | [

In addition, the Rockford Road/I-494 interchange, including the ramps to access I-494, will be closed for the weekend beginning at 10 p.m. Friday, July 12 to allow for demolition of the bridge. Rockford Road will be closed between Vinewood and Annapolis/Berkshire lanes through the weekend.
All four ramps are set to reopen by 5 a.m. Monday, July 15, but the bridge will remain closed for the remainder of Phase 2.
Phase 2: Bridge Demolition and Reconstruction
Phase 2 involves demolition and reconstruction of the Rockford Road bridge over I-494 (the bridge will be closed for approximately 100 days).
All four ramps will be open to traffic during this phase, but motorists will not be able to cross over I-494. Motorists may turn right onto/at the top of the ramps. For example:
- To use the northbound I-494 ramp, motorists must come from the east and turn right onto the northbound I-494 ramp.
- To use the southbound I-494 ramp, motorists must come from the west and turn right onto the southbound I-494 ramp.
- To access Rockford Road east of I-494, motorists may exit northbound I-494 and turn right onto eastbound Rockford Road.
- To access Rockford Road west of I-494, motorists may exit southbound I-494 and turn right onto westbound Rockford Road.
Detour: Motorists should follow the posted detour routes during Phase 2, which include I-494, Highway 55 and Bass Lake Road. Local traffic detour route includes Highway 55, Northwest Boulevard (County Road 61) and Rockford Road. Download the Phase 2 Detour Map (PDF)
Phase 2 may require additional night or weekend closures of I-494. After the completion of this phase, the new bridge will be open to traffic. All dates and timing of phases are weather dependent.
The project will improve traffic flow and increase the capacity of the interchange. To best accommodate access for nearby businesses and residents traveling the affected area, the project will be completed in three phases.
In addition to replacement of the bridge, the project includes a wider bridge with dual, dedicated left turn lanes onto I-494, wider ramps with improved turn lanes onto Rockford Road and improvements for pedestrians and bicyclists.
Reminder: Support local business – please remember that area businesses are open during construction.

NEW ORLEANS – BP will pick up at least some of the legal bills the state of Louisiana incurred as part of a five-state settlement for the 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil spill, according to recent court order.
The order to pay the legal bills was included in a series of documents filed this week in U.S. District Judge Carl Barbier’s court that provides a framework for BP’s $18 billion settlement offer with the five Gulf Coast states affected by the oil spill. An appendix attached to a court order separate from the finalized settlement agreement has BP putting $20 million toward what Louisiana Attorney General Buddy Caldwell’s office has said is a $58 million legal bill to pursue state claims against the oil company. The amount for legal fees is in addition to the $6.8 billion the state is set to receive if Barbier approves the settlement agreement.
Much of Louisiana's legal costs were racked up by 11 private law firms Caldwell contracted to help the state with the case. The proposed settlement shows those 11 law firms that were selected through no-bid contracts combined for $28 million in legal fees over the five-year period following the oil spill.
Caldwell, who faces re-election to his seat in November, has faced criticism over the years for hiring dozens of outside law firms to perform legal work on behalf of the state. Much of this work has been awarded without being opened to public bid and has gone to Caldwell’s campaign contributors.
In the case of the BP settlement, state campaign finance records show that eight of the 11 outside firms contributed a combined $186,000 to Caldwell's election efforts.
Those eight firms include Usry, Weeks, & Matthews of New Orleans, whose lead partner, T. Allen Usry was Caldwell’s campaign manager in 2011. Campaign finance records show that the Usry firm's relatives and employees have given $115,000 to Caldwell’s political campaigns. State records show the Usry firm received $7.11 million in legal fees from the state for assisting in the case against BP.
Another firm with close ties to Caldwell is Shows, Cali & Walsh of Baton Rouge, whose lead partner E. Wade Shows has served as Caldwell's campaign treasurer. State records show that employees of the Shows firm have given at least $15,000 to Caldwell’s past campaigns. For its work on the BP matter, the law firm received more than $660,000.
Employees of Covington-based Henry Dart, Attorneys at Law PLC have given at least $35,000 to Caldwell's campaigns and the law firm in turn has billed $3.28 million to the state in connection with the BP case.
Campaign finance records reveal several other law firms working on the BP oil spill case have political and campaign finance ties to Caldwell, including New Orleans-based Spears & Spears; Mandeville-based; New Orleans-based Galloway, Johnson, Tompkins, Burr & Smith; solo practitioner Ceila R. Cangelosi, of Baton Rouge, and St. James-based The Edwards Group.
At more than $58 million, Louisiana’s legal bill is higher than any other Gulf Coast state’s legal costs related to the oil spill settlement. Court documents show Florida came in second, spending $52 million in legal fees, while the other three affected states — Alabama, Mississippi and Texas — spent a combined $26 million.
BP’s agreement to pay legal fees is provided for in an order separate from the pending settlement that has already been signed by Judge Barbier. The order stipulates that $20 million will be paid to Louisiana and in return, the state will give up all rights to additional legal fees.
In a press release issued this week, Caldwell's office said Louisiana's case against BP was handled at “absolutely no cost to taxpayers.” The press release does not mention the difference between the $20 million BP has been ordered to pay for Louisiana's legal costs and the $58 million the Louisiana Attorney General’s Office maintains was spent on the case.
Caldwell spokesman Aaron Sadler said the remaining balance in legal costs are incorporated in the pending settlement agreement and will be paid out over two years.
“The balance of $38.25 million will be paid in two equal installments–one in 2016 and the other in 2017,” Sadler said. “These payments are made pursuant to the terms of the Consent Decree.”
Sadler, however, did not respond to a request to point out specific language in the 360-page Consent Decree document relating to such payments. | [

|Major Colvile, 43rd Regiment, c.1865 (1)|
Unlike the military names Cameron, Greer, Grey, Hamilton, Harington, Durham, Monmouth which have been memorialized in Tauranga's streets, that of Major Fiennes Middleton Colvile of the 43rd Imperial Regiment will be less familiar to most local residents. Colvile arrived with the Tauranga Expedition in early 1864 from India, and was sent with a detachment of troops to Maketu, where he set up camp in and fortified the old, abandoned Pukemaire Pa (which still carries the alternative name of Fort Colvile). Consequently he was not present for the "Gate Pah affair," but returned to take an active role in the storming of the rifle pits at Te Ranga on 21 June. (2)
|Colonel Colvile, 43rd Regiment, c.1872 (3)|
The 43rd was then posted to Taranaki as part of Cameron's plan to reopen the coastal route. In October 1865 Colvile, by then a Colonel, was wounded during an attack near Warea, receiving a "gun-shot wound in the thigh, with bone fracture." The nature of his injuries meant that he saw no further active service in New Zealand, returning to England with the regiment in March the following year. Colvile subsequently commanded the 43rd regiment until 1875, the 53rd Brigade Depot until 1881, when he "retired" with the rank of Major-General, the Welsh Border infantry Volunteer Brigade between 1889 and 1892, and finally the Oxfordshire & Buckinghamshire Light Infantry from 1913. General Sir Fiennes M. Colvile, K.C.B., died in 1917, aged 84.
There are at least five known surviving carte de visite and cabinet card portraits of Colvile taken between c.1865 and 1906. All five, including the earliest | [

Navajo Ben Shelly signs veto to “Junk Food Tax” legislation
WINDOW ROCK, ARIZONA– On February 12, 2014, Navajo Nation President Ben Shelly penned his signature to veto the Healthy Diné Nation Act of 2013 and cited concerns with funding, regulatory considerations that were not included in the legislation passed by the 22nd Navajo Nation Council during the winter session.
The Shelly-Jim administration has focused on wellness and has healthy lives as one of the five main pillars of focus since taking office. However, the lack of sufficient regulatory provisions limited the legislation’s chance for approval.
After meeting with his general counsel and the Office of the Navajo Tax Commission (ONTC), President Shelly said the legislation would create an unfunded mandate, as there were no funds identified or appropriated to pay for the tax administration. In addition, the new responsibilities would increase the burden on the already underfunded tax office.
“There is no impact analysis. What’s the impact on the local businesses, especially the small businesses? Is this tax legislation going to become law without the Nation clearly understanding its impact on Navajo businesses,” he questioned.
The Navajo Nation is not ready for implementation of collecting taxes on junk food. President Shelly said we must explore other alternatives like focusing on education of health issues. Taxation is not the answer.
A January 23, 2014 memo from Martin Ashley, executive director of ONTC, responded to questions posed by the Speaker Johnny Naize on January 15 regarding the amount of funds collected from junk food items and the impact of the tax elimination on fresh fruits and vegetables.
“Office of the Navajo Tax Commission has not surveyed the retailers to determine how much of the sales is derived from junk food to answer the questions posed,” the memo stated.
ONTC provided a schedule with estimated percentages of junk food revenues based on FY 2013 gross retail sales on the Navajo Nation, which totaled $172.9 million. Included was a projection on the impact of eliminating taxes on fresh fruits and vegetables.
The matrix on was based on 50 to 80 percent of the FY 2013 gross retail sales. Multiplied against the prosed 2 percent tax, the revenue projections varied from $1.7 to $2.7 million.
Conversely, the sales tax elimination on fruits, vegetables, water, nuts and other healthy foods were projected against 10 to 20 percent the FY 2013 gross retail sales and multiplied by the proposed 5 percent tax break.
The amounts varied from $864,500 to $1,729,000 in decreased revenue to the Navajo Nation general fund. The cost estimates were based on 79 retail site locations on the Navajo Nation.
More research in these areas of concern need to addressed before the legislation is signed into law, President Shelly said, because Navajo businesses and consumers warrant due diligence on the matter.
Other considerations included the education of retail sales taxpayers on the legislation; communication with all retail outlets; changes in the tax forms and instructions; reprogramming cash registers to identify junk food taxable items; educating ONTC staff on compliance; and consistent regulatory operations.
“This proposed tax will be imposed on the Navajo people, not the food and beverage industry or its distributors,” President Shelly said. “The junk food importers will continue business as usual.
“The bottom line is that Navajo people will be taxed to pay for community wellness projects to address health concerns that are the trust responsibility of the federal government,” he added.
Other considerations included questions if restaurants, fast food chains and mutton stands would also be subject to junk food taxation. | [

Last October 31, 2019, Auro Chocolate and Jose Saguban made history for the Philippines as they won the first ever Top 20 Best Cacao Beans Award during the prestigious International Cocoa Awards (ICA) held in Salon du Chocolat Paris by the Cocoa of Excellence Programme (CoEx).
30 Oct 30 2019 ICA Awarding Night - Mang Jose Saguban received the Top 20 Best Cacao Beans Recognition together with the Auro Chocolate Team
ICA is a global competition organised by CoEx, recognizing the work of cocoa farmers and celebrating the diversity of cocoa flavours. For the 2019 Edition, CoEx received 223 samples from 55 cocoa-producing countries which were transformed into liquor and evaluated by the CoEx Technical Committee. among hundreds of samples, Mang Jose Saguban’s cacao beans was chosen as part of the Top 20 awardees. Winners were announced in Paris during Salon du Chocolat 2019 (SDC), the most anticipated and prestigious global event dedicated to celebrating chocolate and cacao.
Mang Jose together with the Reserve Collection - 70% Dark Chocolate Paquibato
Jose Saguban of Paquibato, Davao is one of Auro Chocolate’s original farming partners. The founders of Auro Chocolate, Jackie and Kelly Go and Mark Ocampo, first met Mang Jose in October 2015, and were impressed by his passion for cacao and leadership in the community. Mang Jose has been growing cacao since the 1970s and believes in planting cacao that he personally enjoys consuming and not just blindly following the advice of others. As a result, he has a lot of older varieties of cacao in his farm. While Auro’s founders saw the fine flavor potential of Mang Jose’s cacao, they also recognized that he needed a lot of training and guidance as he had limited technical expertise and post-harvest facilities. Mang Jose is currently exclusively supplying cacao beans to Auro Chocolate.
Since late 2015, Auro Chocolate has been working with Mang Jose and the Paquibato Tree Developer’s Cooperative (PTDC) on quality and post-harvest protocols that have been developed to maximize flavor. Auro Chocolate Team mentored and helped in preparing the data and samples that Auro Chocolate sponsored for entry into the competition. It was a joint effort with other members of the PTDC using Auro’s post-harvest protocols as a result of our partnership.
“We both screamed when Mang Jose’s Top 20 award was announced in front of global cacao industry leaders. It was the culmination of the long journey we have been on with Jose Sagoban of Paquibato Tree Developers Cooperative and all the other farmers who have placed their trust on the Auro Chocolate team since 2015. We are incredibly proud that we got to share the stage with Mang Jose that night, and feel inspired to continue taking the path less traveled to strive towards excellence so we can continue to help more farmers. ” - Kelly Go and Mark Ocampo, Co-Founders of Auro Chocolate
Mang Jose with the iconic Eiffel Tower of France
Upon finding out that Mang Jose’s cacao beans made it to the Top 50, Auro Chocolate decided to fly Mang Jose to Paris to personally receive his recognition. The trip was full of firsts not only for Auro Chocolate but most especially for Mang Jose, from his first time on an airplane to his first sip of red wine. The best surprise of the trip was when he also received the highest accolade of being part of the Top 20 Best Cacao Beans in the World - a first for the Philippines.
With Mang Jose’s win, Auro Chocolate hopes that it will inspire a new generation of farmers to continue their legacy. It is Auro Chocolate’s mission to empower farmers like Mang Jose to bring better recognition to more marginalized areas and people in the Philippines and to showcase the fine quality of our cacao on the international stage. | [

Tsunami waves topped 60 feet or more as they broke onshore following Japan’s earthquake, according to some of the first surveys measuring the impact along the afflicted nation’s entire coast. Some waves grew to more than 100 feet high, breaking historic records, as they squeezed between fingers of land surrounding port towns.
The tsunami was born when the magnitude-9.0 earthquake struck March 11 about 45 miles off Japan’s coast. The U.S. Geological Survey said the quake lifted and then dropped a slab of seafloor 50 miles wide and more than 180 miles long. The force shifted the seafloor nearly 80 feet westward above the quake center.

I would absolutely presume that all seawee/vegetables are contaminated. These are the ocean's filters. Which is why they are excellent sources of nutrition, but also why they are excellent points for accumulation of radioactivity.
A big bloom this year followed by a mass die-off would be handy.
Countries around the world have either banned or stepped up tests on imports from quake-stricken Japan after radioactive substances were found in its food and water following blasts at a nuclear plant.
Exposure to large amounts of radioactivity can cause nausea, vomiting, hair loss, diarrhea, hemorrhage, destruction of the intestinal lining, central nervous system damage, and death.
It also causes DNA damage and raises the risk of cancer, particularly in young children and fetuses.
Below are the three radioactive substances health experts are most concerned about, the detected levels in Japan, and what they mean for human health:
Leafy green vegetables in Japan were found this week to contain up to 22,000 becquerels of iodine-131 for every kilogram.
Such a level exceeds the limit set by the European Union by 11 times. Becquerel is a measure of radioactivity.
Eating a kilogram (slightly more than two pounds) of such vegetables would give half the amount of radiation typically received by the average person from the natural environment in a year.
Eating this amount every day for 45 days will accumulate 50 millisieverts, the annual radiation limit set for a nuclear plant worker. Millisievert quantifies the amount of radiation absorbed by human tissues.
Exposure to 100 millisieverts a year increases the risk of cancer. That is equivalent to about three whole body CT scans.
If inhaled or swallowed, iodine-131 concentrates in the thyroid gland and increases the risk of thyroid cancer. Children, fetuses and young adults are especially vulnerable.
The risk of thyroid cancer can be lowered by taking potassium iodide pills, which helps prevent the uptake of the radioactive iodine.
However, iodine-131 disintegrates relatively quickly and its radioactivity is halved every 8 days. This means it loses all its harmfulness in 80 days.
Cesium-134 and Cesium-137
Vegetables in Japan have also been tainted with up to 14,000 becquerels of cesium for every kilogram.
That exceeds the EU limit by over 11 times.
Eating a kilogram of such tainted vegetables every day for a month would accumulate radiation equivalent to a full body CT scan - or 20 millisieverts.
External exposure to large amounts of radioactive cesium can cause burns, acute radiation sickness and death. It can also increase the risk of cancer. Ingesting or inhaling cesium allows it to be distributed in soft tissues, especially muscle tissue, increasing cancer risk. It can also cause spasms, involuntary muscular contractions and infertility.
Unlike iodine, uptake of radioactive cesium cannot be prevented once the person is exposed.
This substance is of more concern than iodine-131 because it is very hardy and takes far longer to disintegrate.
Cesium-137 has a half life of 30 years, meaning it takes that long to reduce its radioactivity by half. It will take at least 240 years for this contaminant to exhaust all its radioactivity.
Cesium-134 has a half life of 2 years, which means it will take about 20 years for it to become harmless.
Below are the effects of short-term, high-level exposure to radiation, as published by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. Unlike cancer, these effects from acute radiation exposure usually appear quickly, causing what is known as radiation sickness, which includes symptoms like nausea, hair loss and skin burns. If the dose is fatal, death usually occurs within two months.
- Exposure to 50-100 millisieverts: changes in blood chemistry.
- 500: nausea, within hours.

Three young Benalla Rovers soccer players will represent the Albury-Wodonga region this season.January 31, 2014 4:18am
Three young Benalla soccer players have been selected to represent the region.
Benalla Rovers Soccer Club players Natalia Grima, 11, Ebony Massey, 10, and Josh Grima, 8, have all been chosen in the Albury-Wodonga Football Association representative team for the 2014 season.
The trio attended selections for five weeks at the end of last year before Natalie and Ebony were chosen for the under-12 girls’ team and Josh in the under-nine boys’ skills acquisition program.
While Josh said he was looking forward to meeting new people and kicking goals, Natalie and Ebony said they were excited to play in an all-girls team for the first time.
‘‘Playing in an all-girls team will be a very unique experience for them,’’ Natalie and Josh’s father Danny Grima said.
Benalla Rovers Soccer Club is one of the smallest clubs in the association, and Danny said it was a fantastic achievement for such a small club.
‘‘It should be a good promotion for the club, showing that we have players with such skills,’’ Danny said.
‘‘We had a good showing at all the trials, and it was really great to have the commitment from parents and players travelling that far,’’ Ebony’s mother Jo Cooper said.
The trio will train every second weekend throughout the season, with matches held as far away as Bathurst and Griffith.
The selection comes as Benalla Rovers prepares for a huge season, with the club nearly doubling in size.
‘‘We’ve gone from three junior teams to five, and from two senior reserves teams to a senior and senior reserves team in men’s and ladies,’’ Cooper said.
Benalla Rovers will hold registration days for its upcoming season on January 30 and 31 and February 6 and 7 from 6
Junior training will be held on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 6
The club will celebrate its 65th anniversary this year.

Recently, Huawei met with rigid pressure from the American authorities, actually having lost opportunities to normally produce smartphones. Nevertheless, the Chinese electronics manufacturer continues its own development of chipsets for the future.
As you know, after the introduction of sanctions against Huawei by the United States from cooperation with the company was forced to refuse Taiwanese TSMC, which made KIRIN branded processors for Huawei smartphones developed by the subsidiary of the Chinese Giant Hisilicon.
Nevertheless, according to the latest data, Huawei Technologies on April 22 submitted an application for registration of the Kirin Processor trademark, in the international classification, it refers to the category “9 scientific instruments”. Probably, the company did not leave hope to return to the market in the future.
According to some reports, Huawei develops a new generation mobile chipset KIRIN 9010, which is expected to be produced in accordance with the 3rd technological process. The design of a single-grip system must be completed by the company independently until the end of this year. The processor is focused on the use of the company’s flagship smartphones and tablets.
Taking into account the fact that the 3-nm TSMC technical process is still not enough, mass production will begin not earlier than 2022. It is possible that by that time Huawei will succeed in achieving certain agreements with the American authorities – if the company succeeds, the company will already be developed, ready to immediately produce. | [

A Special Report on Human Rights in Sulu:
Waiting for the Elusive
Last of 3 parts
many of the Moro people – not only for the MNLF forces under the command of
Chairman Nur Misuari – the government (GRP) has betrayed and continues to
violate the 1976 Tripoli Agreement and the 1996 peace agreement.
MATIMBUNG, Sulu - “For
seven and a half years to date, the Junior Cadre Officer Corps (JCOC) of the
MNLF waited in high hopes for the full and proper implementation of the Final
Peace Agreement (FPA) but in vain,” the JCOC stated in its manifesto.
The JCOC lamented that
since the signing of the FPA in 1996, no significant development was ever felt
in the poor Bangsamoro communities, particularly in the island provinces of the
Autonomous Region in Muslim Mindanao (ARMM).
Sometime in 2001, the MNLF
split into factions—the mainstream MNLF of Misuari, which Ustadz Malik claimed
that they are, and the Executive Council of 15 that is the breakaway group.
“They are the ones who went out of the organization, hence, they are the
breakaway group,” Ustadz Malik clarified.
All groups, however,
pronounced that they are still covered by the FPA as each group has been
embracing the peace provisions.
Yet, as MCPA put it, “The
massacre once again demonstrates the military’s utter disregard for peace and
civilian rights” noting that “If there was no other ulterior motive, the
government’s potent attitude would have been remorse and reconciliation. But
troop movements in the area proved otherwise. After the massacre, it seemed the
military was bracing for large-scale operations.”
“The boldness of the MNLF
to engage the government troops in a full scale war was the ultimate act of an
enraged people who had long tried to hold back their discontent over the
shameless and arrogant betrayal of the government to their cause,” MCPA further
stated. “And as if waiting for the right cue, the MNLF’s retaliation has been
used as pretext by the military to justify its call for a full-scale war in Sulu.”
In a public forum, Dr.
Abdulrackman Amin, MNLF Liaison Officer to the Organization of Islamic
Conference (OIC), cited some of the violations as such: military troop movements
in MNLF territories in the form of regular military operations or under the
guise of Balikatan Exercises; killings of known MNLF leaders and commanders;
sowing intrigue and fueling division within the MNLF leadership and organization
by electing the MNLF Committee of 15 -- an organ which was non-existent prior to
the signing of the Peace Agreement; undermining the MNLF organization by trying
to discredit and abrogate its position in the OIC; and continued incarceration
of Chairman Nur Misuari and the conspicuous cold-shoulder treatment of his case.
The JCOC also demanded a
separate MNLF formation in the AFP and pushes for the critical review of the FPA
with a view to institute remedial measures to whatever flaws and shortcomings in
the implementation of the process.
Meanwhile, the Kalinaw
Mindanaw Fact-Finding Mission concluded that there is a “blatant disregard of
the 1996 Final Peace Agreement on the side of the government.”
Long confronted with the
demands for justice and lasting peace, President Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo,
however, ordered no ceasefire since the outbreak. Kalinaw Mindanaw said,
instead, state terrorism is clearly manifested through the violation of peace
agreements and the international humanitarian law.
Meanwhile, the women sector
in Sulu calls for the end of military offensives and the pullout of military
troops. “The war has sent psychological trauma to our kids and they can’t go to
school now because most of the schools have been turned into military camps and
evacuation centers,” they said.
“If they can’t govern us
well, better yet, the government gives us our freedom and independence,” the
women’s group demanded. Bulatlat

In a study was published online in The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, the researchers from the Institute of Acoustics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (IACAS) proposed a passive broadband source depth estimation method using a single vector sensor in deep ocean. They took advantage of the depth-dependent modulation changes of the interference structure along the frequency domain at a certain arrival angle. Afterwards, the source depth could be estimated directly.
The researchers demonstrated this source depth estimation method by experimental data conducted in a sea experiment. They used explosive sources with nominal explosive depth equal to 200 m. The receiver was a four-component ocean-bottom seismometer (OBS) deployed at the ocean bottom. During the experiment, 14 sources were dropped from the rear deck of the ship and were distributed along a line from 0.5 km to 5.5 km distance from the receiver. In the depth estimation using the signal recorded by a four-component ocean-bottom seismometer for the source exploding at 4.21 km, all 14 estimated source depths were around the nominal source depth.
Different from the isovelocity model, the sound velocity changed with depth in the real environment. For sources at relatively short ranges, variation of the sound speed with depth had little effect on the frequency modulation period because the arrival angle was steep. While for remote sources, ray bending was non-negligible and the isovelocity model was no longer suitable.
Under such circumstances, more works, such as the frequency interference period modification considering the water stratification, are needed in the future to improve the accuracy of the source depth estimation for remote sources.

CANNES, France (AP) — Romanian model-turned-actress Madalina Ghenea had already grabbed attention at the Cannes Film Festival by featuring nude on the provocative poster for the film "Youth," with Michael Caine and Harvey Keitel looking on.
26-year-old Ghenea, who stars in the film, on Wednesday grabbed the limelight all over again, this time on the red carpet in a white mermaid gown for the movie's premiere on the French Riviera.
Ghenea appeared alongside the actresses Jane Fonda and Rachel Weisz.
But she more than held her own thanks to this fashion coup — a sheer, figure-hugging silk gown with pearl clusters which showed off her curves and flared stylishly at the knee with huge embroidered plumes.

Companion planting in your vegetable garden can discourage insects and produce higher yields. However, some vegetables are incompatible, and when planted near one another in your garden, they may contribute to reduced crop yields or increased disease and insects.
Beans are incompatible with chives, onion, garlic, fennel and leeks. Garlic and onion can stunt the growth of beans.
Keep beets away from pole beans and mustard in your vegetable garden. Beets and pole beans stunt each other's growth.
Broccoli is incompatible with lettuce and tomato. Both lettuce and broccoli attract the same aphids.
Celery is incompatible with corn, as they both attract beetles.
Keep your corn rows separate from your tomato and celery plants; they attract the same insects.
Onions grow best when they are planted away from beans and peas in your vegetable garden, as they can stunt each others growth.
Peas prefer to be planted away from garlic, leeks, onions, potatoes and shallots. Garlic and onions can retard the growth of peas.
Do not plant peppers near fennel or kohlrabi as they all attract the same insects.
Potatoes are incompatible with a variety of vegetables in your garden. Tomatoes, turnips, pumpkins, squash, radish and cucumbers can impede potato production. Potatoes and tomatoes are attacked by the same blight, so planting them close together creates double incentive for disease.
Plant your tomatoes far away from broccoli, cabbage, corn, cauliflower, fennel, kohlrabi and potatoes. Corn attracts a worm that also enjoys tomatoes; kohlrabi can stunt the growth of tomatoes.
Manually remove all weeds by hand out of your vegetable garden. Although it is time consuming, it is effective and organic. You must remove all weeds by the roots to keep them from coming back.
Boil water and pour it on your weeds in order to kill the weed and the seeds. Be careful to not pour boiling water on the vegetables.
Add mulch to your vegetable garden. Mulch will literally smother and kill weeds. Mulch also helps to retain water and nutrients in the soil.
Spray vinegar on weeds, being careful not to spray your vegetable plants.
Buy mushroom compost from a garden center or nursery.
Buy organic planting soil from a garden center or nursery. You can mix the compost with soil in your vegetable garden rather than purchasing new soil.
Mix the soil and mushroom compost using 2 parts soil to 1 part mushroom compost.
In the fall, put the organic soil and mushroom compost in your vegetable garden so it can age over the winter.
Adding a small amount of mushroom compost to fertilize the soil in your vegetable garden when you prepare it for planting is also good.
Mushroom compost is beneficial for all plants in your garden.
Mushroom compost contains high salt content that can damage vegetable seeds and prevent them from growing. Be sure to mix the compost with planting soil.
Choose six to eight different plants, all bush varieties if there is a choice. Green beans, peppers, carrots, radish, broccoli and peas are all suitable choices. One vining plant, like tomato or cucumber, can be placed in the middle of your circle.
Measure your circle to include six to eight pie-shaped wedges no more than 4 feet wide at the base. You will have walkways between each wedge and a circular planting area in the center of the garden.
Building the Beds
Create raised beds in your garden with bricks, cinder blocks or railroad ties. Fill the areas with topsoil mixed with compost and rotted manure. Make sure that the soil mixture is about 18 inches deep.
When the growing season has passed, pull all dead plants and cover all planting surfaces with a 6-inch layer of dead leaves or straw. In the spring this mulch can be turned into the soil to compost for additional nutrients.
The circular design is convenient because your vegetables are easier to reach and water, and there is less weeding in a raised-bed garden. The circular design also adds a decorative element to your landscaping.

Safety incidents at hospital, mental health and ambulance trusts were linked to more than 4,600 patient deaths in the last year, data shows.
The types of patient safety issues recorded by the National Reporting & Learning System (NRLS), which compiles NHS data, include problems with medication, the type of care given, staffing and infection control.
In total 4,668 deaths were linked to patient safety incidents, of which 530 deaths specifically linked to mental health trusts and 73 to ambulance trusts.
Guidance accompanying the data from the NRLS, which was set up in 2003, states deaths are not always “clear-cut” and cannot always be attributed to patient safety incidents. However, under the “degree of harm” section recorded on the system, there were 4,688 cases listed as death. In total, 4,356,277 reports of patient safety incidents were reported between November 2018 and October 2019. They are described as issues where unintended or unexpected incidents which could have – or did – lead to harm of a patient under the care of the NHS.
Other safety incidents had links to consent, paperwork, facilities, and in some cases patient abuse by staff or a third party.

A General Atomics official said the company is surprised by the Air Force’s plan to stop buying new MQ-9 Reapers in fiscal 2020, after expecting to gradually wind down the production line.
Chris Pehrson, General Atomics’ vice president of strategic development, told Air Force Magazine he anticipated the service would phase out purchases of its iconic hunter-killer drone over the next three to five years as the Air Force approaches the planned end of the 363-aircraft program. Instead, USAF revealed in its fiscal 2021 budget request that it wants to buy its last 24 Reapers this year, cutting the total buy to 337 MQ-9s. Those final Block 5 aircraft will be delivered in 2023 and 2024.
“In response to direction in the 2018 National Defense Strategy, which directs the services to accept near-term risk in exchange for long-term capability enhancements, the Air Force is shifting its investment towards improved readiness and increased lethality for operations against near-peer adversaries,” service spokesman Capt. Jake Bailey said Feb. 26.
In other words, the remotely piloted MQ-9 has helped the Pentagon gather intelligence and kill terrorists in airstrikes across the globe for about two decades, but it wouldn’t hold up against the advanced air-defense missiles and high-tech aircraft that countries like Russia and China own. Reapers have shaped modern warfare as an unmanned mainstay in the wars in Afghanistan, Iraq, and Syria.
The Air Force now wants to spend $302.5 million from 2021 to 2023 to close the line, after previously planning to buy another 100 Reapers between 2019 and 2023. Inside Defense first reported the production line shutdown Feb. 11.
“The abrupt shutdown of the production line without a transition plan does jeopardize the [intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance] enterprise,” Pehrson said. “You’ll see impact eventually, when combat lines have to be reduced or … the assets aren’t there for training.”
Cutting production off now would complicate General Atomics’s procurement decisions for its final batch of MQ-9As and disrupt its revenue stream, even as it continues to upgrade the existing fleet.
“We’re actually going out about 22 months ahead of delivery and procuring the long-lead item parts, … whether it’s [satellite communication] equipment or engines, … to negotiate the best prices and get the best deals for the government,” Pehrson said. “Having the rug pulled out from under your feet at the last minute kind of disrupts all your supply chain investments that you’re making.”
Closing a production line also means the company has to repurpose its manufacturing space by moving heavy equipment and tools over the course of about 36 months. The decision would cause a bigger workforce rebalancing than normal, but the company says it wouldn’t be too difficult to spread people around to other products.
“If they stop production today, say, that’s going to have an immediate impact on … the composite manufacturing team, but as time moves on, that impact is going to ripple throughout the whole labor force,” he added. “We’ll have unemployment or a layoff situation in certain skill sets if we don’t find a way to fill this decreased demand immediately with some other new product or new capability.”
General Atomics also leases its services to operate aircraft, is participating in experimental small drone efforts, builds similar Gray Eagle drones for the Army, is pursuing unmanned aircraft for commercial cargo delivery and other civilian applications, and is investing its own money into more advanced combat designs.
“Think of them as a next-generation, what the MQ-9 does today, but it can do it in a less-permissive environment,” Pehrson said. “There aren’t any formal requirements yet. This is kind of building something in anticipation of what the requirements will be.”
He declined to say whether the company has built prototypes of those designs but indicated the ideas are newer than GA’s Avenger, which first flew in 2009.
While MQ-9s also fly unarmed border security missions for the Department of Homeland Security and participate in humanitarian assistance efforts like firefighting and disaster relief, those tasks may not be enough to keep the line open. General Atomics is pushing its MQ-9 customers to transition to the newer, more advanced MQ-9B as well, saying it’s less efficient to build multiple MQ-9 variants at once.
Pehrson is optimistic that Congress will step in to change the Air Force’s plan. Lawmakers have added money to buy more MQ-9s in the past, such as when they recently doubled the Air Force’s 2020 request by funding 12 extra aircraft.
“I think this was strictly a budget drill,” Pehrson said. “We’ve always kind of been in the [Overseas Contingency Operations] funding line and | [

Recent neutron scattering experiments have
sharpened the picture of an algebraic spin liquid phase
in CsNiCrF6, originally proposed by Zinkin et al..
Anderson famously predicted that systems such as this,
with equal numbers of two magnetic species populating
a pyrochlore lattice, should favour configurations with
two of each type of ion present on every tetrahedron
With this in mind, we have studied a simple model of a
system comprised of equal numbers of two species of
Heisenberg spins, A and B, distributed randomly across
a pyrochlore lattice, but subject to the ice-rules like
constraint that each tetrahedron has two A and two B
type spins. We have characterized the ground state
magnetic behaviour for all possible combinations of the
three exchange interactions governing the system. This
reveals a large region of exchange parameter space for
which the system is in a spin liquid like state consisting
of a soup of single species, non-interacting,
antiferromagnetic loops. This configuration is robust
even in the presence of four ferromagnetic bonds per
tetrahedron. We demonstrate that the highly
constrained form of quenched disorder imposed on the
ion placement removes the possibility of a spin glass
transition from this cooperative paramagnetic regime.
We go on to discuss how the underlying structural
configuration leads to algebraic magnetic correlations,
manifested in the familiar bow-tie structure factor. This
model is also susceptible to strong finite size influences.
A system with finite size will be unable to develop the
correct loop distribution to produce the bow-tie structure
factor. We are currently investigating how such effects
manifest themselves and the implications for more
controllable arrays such as can be achieved with, for
example, artificial spin ice.

Good and neat rooms, 1 km away from Railway station, ideal for Group, business trips, neat and clean linens but complimentary breakfast is against order and no much choice, hotel charge with complimentary breakfast is very poor because in the same or lesser price other hotels are available in town. Otherwise it is good

I forced to stayed in the hotel for official purpose during April-18. The front office service is good but we cannot expect the same after entering in to the rooms. Its very poor. You won't get value for the money which you spend for the stay. They will not provide a single cup of tea between 10PM tol 7. 30AM. Tea kettle is readily available in the room but you should learn first how to prepare coffee without sugar and coffee sachet. No need to control AC temperature because it is fully automatic by pressing a single switch (remote control is missing).

This hotel is a bit away from Kollam. But it has nice rooms and staff is good. During my stay most of the rooms were not occupied. Only one issue I faced and it was Language. All staff members can't speak English or Hindi. Coffee and snacks are up to the mark.

SOLDOUT * for selected dates
Room booked for 2 people was only provided one towel and a soap. The hotel people don't know anything about room service and the room service line goes unanswered. The staff is ignorant of any languages other than mallyalam which as a toursit from other part of country was difficult for me. To order food or ask for some water. The restaurant attached to it was pathetic, the food was OK but service took 1hour to get the menu. No one to wait tables and no one or very few at reception most of the time. Boating service is not provided by the hotel although written in description of hotel.

Azure Data Factory (ADF) is the cloud-based ETL, ELT, and data integration service within the Microsoft Azure ecosystem.
In not-as-technical terms, Azure Data Factory is typically used to move data that may be of different sizes and shapes from multiple sources, either on-premises or in the cloud, to a data store such as a data lake, data warehouse, or database. This can be a component of a robust Modern Data & Analytics platform strategy using Microsoft Azure. There’s a slew of reasons to move this data into a data lake or data warehouse. Still, the primary goal is usually the aggregation and transformation of data into more powerful insights.
If you want a deeper dive into Azure Data Factory, when to use it, and all of its capabilities, I highly recommend you start by reading the introductory post from Microsoft. The rest of this post will assume readers have some familiarity with cloud ecosystems and will primarily focus on Azure Data Factory’s dynamic capabilities and the benefits these capabilities add for cloud and data engineers.
Parameterization in Azure Data Services and Its Benefits
In 2018, Microsoft released Azure Data Factory v2, and with this release, there were many notable changes to ADF. You can read about all of the changes in this release announcement by Microsoft. In this blog, we will primarily focus on exploring the ability to now create parameterized data pipelines within Azure Data Factory.
Parameterization is such a notable addition to ADF because it can save a tremendous amount of time and allow for a much more flexible Extract, Transform, Load (ETL) solution, which will dramatically reduce the cost of solution maintenance and speed up the implementation of new features into existing pipelines. These gains are because parameterization minimizes the amount of hard coding and increases the number of reusable objects and processes in a solution.
To get a general grasp of how parameterization is done and how it can maximize efficiency within an ADF pipeline, let’s take a look at some typical ADF architecture diagrams when using a pipeline without parameterization, and then compare them to a couple of architecture diagrams that increasingly use this added functionality.
The diagram above is a simple example of an Azure Data Factory pipeline and we will use it throughout the blog for demonstration purposes. In this example, we want to move a single CSV file from blob storage into a table stored in an SQL server database. This activity is done through an Azure Data Factory pipeline. ADF pipelines consist of several parts and typically consist of linked services, datasets and activities. They are:
A Linked Service is used to connect a data store to ADF. It is very similar to a connection string in that it defines the connection information needed for ADF to connect to external resources, such as blob storage or an SQL database.
A dataset is a named view of data that simply points to or references the data you want to use in your activities as inputs and outputs.
Activities in a pipeline define the actions you wish to perform on your data. For this example, we will focus on the copy activity which simply copies the data from one dataset to the other.
To create the example pipeline above a user would need to create all of the following:
- A linked service to allow ADF access to blob storage
- A dataset, which references the target CSV file in blob storage
- A linked service to allow ADF access to the SQL server database
- A dataset, which references the target table in the SQL server database
- A copy activity that will copy the data from the first dataset to the second
Once you have created all of the linked services, datasets and the copy activity, this pipeline will then populate the table in the SQL server database with the data that was in the original CSV file.
This simple pipeline works wonderfully for copying a single CSV file into the SQL table. Now let’s take a look at a diagram where we want to copy over two CSV files into two separate tables in the SQL database.
As you can see from the diagram above, adding in steps to copy an additional CSV file into a new table will require the user to create three other objects:
- A dataset to point to the new CSV file
- A dataset to point to the new table
- A copy activity, which will copy the data from the new CSV dataset to the new Table dataset.
* The linked services will not need to be replicated as Azure Data Factory access has already been granted to blob storage and the SQL Server database.
Before parameterization, for every additional file we wish to copy over into our database, we needed to create three other objects. It’s easy to see that if we had a large number of files we needed to transfer, it would require a lot of time to create all of these additional objects in ADF and might be prone to error given the scale of the work. Parameterization can solve these problems.
Below is a diagram of our example pipeline where the dataset objects are utilizing parameterization.
