It is the music that enters your ears when you are a teenager that usually sticks in your mind the longest. Being a teenager during a certain decade, or just a part of it and listening to the music of the day just seems to stick with you forever. No exception here, spending a part of teenage years in the sixties, has made the music of that decade a personal favorite that simply doesn't go away.
Social distancing, lockdown quarantine, all are words we knew were there, just didn’t have much chance to experience them directly. Now we do. But another term remains the same - new music that should not be missed. It seems that now, in these hard times is the additional chance to experience it. After all, we have more time to experience it and, of course, those piles of music we are not so familiar with have been getting bigger and bigger. Time to try and slim them down and pick some more good music that otherwise might go completely unnoticed.
As any holiday season approaches, the piles of music to listen to grow exponentially and so do the chances of some great music just slipping by for no other reason than there is too much of it. The first reaction of any music fan is to go for the music they are somehow familiar with, something they know they will love, like a lavish reissue of one of their favourites.
These days, with streaming, downloads, and all the available formats, new and old, it is quite easy for good music to fall under the radar. In that respect, it is an almost an even field, whether music is something you seriously follow or you are just a casual fan. It often happens that your pile of vinyl or CDs just grows, or those downloads and possible streaming links are overcrowding your computer.
If you’ve seen videos for Beck’s “Devil’s Haircut,” Madonna’s “Bedtime Stories,” and quite a few others, you’ve encountered the work of Ash. It is no easy feat establishing yourself in the highly competitive field of music videos, but Ash has done it.
Ben LaMar Gay has been a continuous presence on the Chicago music scene for years now, he is a member of the prominent AACM (The Association of the Advancement of Creative Musicians) and he has been collaborating with the likes of George Lewis, Theo Parrish, and Makaya McCraven. Still, until 2018 his solo recordings were barely to be heard. | [

In this video you will learn how to:
- Execute 27 youth football running plays versus both an odd and even defensive look
- Adjust the plays so they can be run at the "Pee-Wee" youth level
- Implement simple blocking rules and how to change the rules as kids advance in age
- Adjust each play so it can be run from under center
Features : with Rick Stewart, former Porterville (CA) High School Head Coach.
Took three losing programs to playoffs. Led Porterville to four straight playoff appearances, back-to-back section championship appearances.
The Pistol Wing-T is a dynamic way to run an offense that has stood the test of time. Rick Stewart leaves no stone unturned in his overview of the Pistol Wing-T running game. You'll get a complete step-by-step process from drills to installation along with the progression of the run game system for the Wing-T offense.
Coach Stewart does an outstanding job going through the run series family and various plays to run off of those base plays. With just three "families" of plays you can deceive any defense with an arsenal of misdirection and "look alike" plays. He starts out with multiple formations and demonstrates 27 plays in the Sweep, Down and Belly "families." Using a chalk talk to thoroughly discuss the play, blocking combinations versus various defensive fronts, Stewart coaches you up on the key points that will make a big difference in the success of each play. You will get almost every play covered with The Lucky and Ringo no motion formations, which is perfect for the pee wee level.
Stewart follows up the chalk talk with a practice video of his 8th grade team running each play diagramed and chalked. You will see common mistakes made by young players and how to correct the mistakes.
Each play is drawn up against an even and odd defense. Coach Stewart goes in-depth in how to block against multiple defenses and how to adjust to different blitzes. Learn simple line calls such as "Tug, Gut, and Moses as well as the Down," that allow the offense to have blocking angles on any defensive structure which will allow for big plays in the run game. He also discusses in depth the run progression based on how the defense is reacting to the base play in each family.
This DVD will give coaches an inside look at everything you will need to install the Pistol Wing-T run game in your youth program. It can be incorporated into any level that is wanting a consistent progression in teaching the Pistol Wing-T running game. It gives you a complete step by step process from drills to installation along with the progression of the running game. Coach Stewart does a detailed progression that is second to none.

This was one of the designs developed by Mauser as an improvement on the tube magazine repeater. Because of the changing balance of the rifle as the magazine was emptied in the tubular type, Mauser conceived the idea of this box magazine (which is curved because the heads of the cartridges had rims) which would be inserted in the rifle from below and could be used to convert the 71 Model to a large capacity magazine rifle. This general type of magazine was later widely adopted and used by practically all nations. The first patent filed on a vertical box magazine was that of the American inventor, James P. Lee, in 1879.
This model was manufactured in tremendous quantities. In 1887, 550,000 rifles and carbines were delivered to Turkey alone. As in the case of the original single-shot Mauser rifle, the 71-84 was made both as a rifle and as a carbine. The carbine had a short upper forestock. This rifle was found being used in quantity in World War II, which provides a commentary not only on the original quality and value of the arm itself, but also on the ability of a country such as Germany to hide, store and preserve arms over long periods of time.

The infrastructure industry has welcomed Simon Stiell’s appointment as executive secretary of the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change.
UN secretary-general António Guterres has appointed Simon Stiell as the new executive secretary of the United Nations climate change secretariat in Bonn, Germany.
Simon Stiell served as a senior minister in the Government of Grenada holding the portfolios of minister for climate resilience and the environment for five years. He also served as minister for education and human resource development, minister of state with responsibility for human resource development and the environment, and as a junior minister within the ministry of agriculture, lands, forestry, fisheries and the environment.
Stiell began his career as an engineer and had a successful career in the technology sector, holding senior executive positions in a number of industry leading companies, from Silicon Valley based technology start-ups, to major corporations including Nokia and G.E.C before serving in Grenada’s senate as leader of government’s business.
Industry has welcome the appointment of a man who understands the importance and process of government administration, and the technology and engineering involved in turning fine climate commitments into outcomes on the ground.
Dr Nelson Ogunshakin OBE, chief executive of FIDIC – the international federation that represents the global infrastructure industry – said: “The global engineering community and wider related Industry is pleased to welcome Simon Stiell’s appointment to the UNFCCC. Rapid action is needed to tackle climate change and keep global warming to as close to 1.5°C as possible and this can only be achieved by bringing government and industry together to identify and facilitate the practical large-scale solutions. Simon’s background in engineering, technology and government administration will be invaluable to that and FIDIC stand ready to support him and his team with their vital mission.”
The United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) has 197 member nations and is the parent treaty of the 2015 Paris Climate Change Agreement. The main aim of the Paris Agreement is to keep a global average temperature rise this century well below 2°C and to drive efforts to limit the temperature increase even further to 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels. The UNFCCC is also the parent treaty of the 1997 Kyoto Protocol.
The ultimate objective of all agreements under the UNFCCC is to stabilize greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere at a level that will prevent dangerous human interference with the climate system, in a time frame which allows ecosystems to adapt naturally and enables sustainable development. | [

The Perseids are a meteor shower that happens every August, and is best seen from the Northern Hemisphere. It's caused by debris from Swift-Tuttle, a huge comet that swings through the inner part of our Solar System every 133 years and leaves behind a trail of dust and gravel.
When Earth passes through the debris, specks hit our atmosphere at 140,000mph and disintegrate in flashes of light. Some of the meteors are more spectacular than others - a fireball is when it's brighter than a star. Last night there was a brief break in the cloud and I managed to see one, despite the light pollution from London, which isn't too far away. Its tail was like a silver firework, very bright and a lot bigger than I expected. It was worth getting up at 3.30 in the morning to see it! | [

Depression is a complex multifactorial mental disorder. Its etiology involves many factors such as social environments, genetics, and psychology. Recent studies have shown that epigenetic modification may be associated with depression. Histone acetylation is one of the main mechanisms of epigenetic modification and plays an important role in genetic expression. In this study, we investigated the role of histone acetylation in the depression-like behaviors of rats undergoing chronically unpredicted stress (CUS) by detecting the mRNA and protein expression of histone deacetylase 5, cAMP-response element-binding protein, and the level of histone acetylated modification of H3K14, H3K23, and H4K16 in the prefrontal cortex and hippocampus of the rats. The results showed that significantly increasing depression-like behaviors were observed with a decreasing histone acetylated modification level, especially on acytelated-H3K14, acytelated-H3K23, and acytelated-H4K16, upregulating histone deacetylase 5 expression and downregulating cAMP-response element-binding protein expression in CUS rats, compared with control rats. The results indicate that the decrease in the histone acetylation modification level may be partly involved in the mechanism of depression-like behaviors of rats induced by CUS. | [

This video discusses the social and economic impacts (worldwide and in the US) of sea level rise caused by global warming (aired April 1, 2011).
Note: you may need to scroll down the Changing Planet video page to get to this video.
This is a polar map of permafrost extent in the Northern Hemisphere. A sidebar explains how permafrost, as it forms and later thaws, serves as both a sink and source for carbon to the atmosphere. Related multimedia is a slideshow of permafrost scientists from U. of Alaska, Fairbanks, collecting permafrost data in the field.
This lesson guides a student inquiry into properties of the ocean's carbonate buffer system, and how changes in atmospheric carbon dioxide levels may affect ocean pH and biological organisms that depend on calcification.
This video takes viewers high into the Rocky Mountain snowpack, where researchers dig snow pits to explore the source of Colorado's water supply. Highlights how important snowpack is to the supply of fresh water available in western and southwestern states. Snowmelt dynamics are discussed, including the impact of a warming climate on these dynamics.
This interactive shows the extent of the killing of lodgepole pine trees in western Canada. The spread of pine beetle throughout British Columbia has devastated the lodgepole pine forests there. This animation shows the spread of the beetle and the increasing numbers of trees affected from 1999-2008 and predicts the spread up until 2015.
This video features a number of different climate scientists describing the effects of the increasing amount of carbon dioxide on global climate and proposing a series of solutions to mitigate these effects. Video addresses health problems and other costs to humans associated with climate change.
In this activity, students learn about sea ice extent in both polar regions (Arctic and Antarctic). They start out by forming a hypothesis on the variability of sea ice, testing the hypothesis by graphing real data from a recent 3-year period to learn about seasonal variations and over a 25-year period to learn about longer-term trends, and finish with a discussion of their results and predictions. | [

Lunar Outpost Joins Lockheed Martin’s Consortium to Develop First Crewed Rover in Over 50 Years
18 April 2023
Lunar Outpost has partnered with Lockheed Martin to contribute technology and engineering expertise in the development of Lockheed Martin’s Lunar Mobility Vehicle (LMV). This next generation lunar terrain vehicle will give astronauts a front row seat to discoveries as they traverse unexplored regions of the Moon.
The Lockheed Martin-led team will be strengthened by Lunar Outpost’s mission heritage and rapid innovation and prototyping practices in end-to-end rover development and operations expertise. Lunar Outpost will be providing Stargate, a comprehensive mission control software for robotic vehicle teleoperation, data management and payload operations. In addition to leading this key role, Lunar Outpost will be contributing to the vehicle’s onboard navigation, advanced thermal management, lighting and dust mitigation technologies – creating a safe and efficient vehicle for Artemis astronaut exploration.
In 2025, the Artemis program will return U.S. astronauts to the surface of the Moon for the first time since the Apollo 17 mission in 1972. The addition of a crewed lunar rover to this mission will extend human mobility further than ever before across harsh lunar terrain.
Astronauts will use the vehicle to conduct critical scientific research and prospect for resources – offering opportunity and insight into fundamental aspects of the solar system. The LMV rover will also be operated autonomously without astronauts on board. Early rover missions will target the Moon’s South Pole, a previously unexplored region thought to have an abundance of water ice and other resources. Uncovering these resources would unlock the ability to build and maintain life support mechanisms for a sustained human presence on the Moon and beyond.
It has been over 50 years since the U.S. last visited the lunar surface, but Lunar Outpost is looking to change that sooner than most think.
“We have secured three missions to the Moon over the next three years and have flight-ready technology to execute those missions and perform numerous tasks including prospecting for resources,” said Justin Cyrus, CEO at Lunar Outpost, “We are excited to support Lockheed Martin’s LMV program with critical rover technologies that will have been demonstrated, tested, and operated multiple times on the lunar surface”.
Lunar Outpost’s three autonomous lunar rover missions include infrastructure, science, and resource prospecting activities - one of which will be the first ever rover to visit the lunar South Pole later this year as well as the first rover to ever collect and sell space resources through a deal with NASA. This mission will also serve as a scouting mission for Artemis astronauts. These missions all occur before the crewed lunar terrain vehicle is expected to be delivered to the surface on the Artemis mission. They bring the opportunity to test LTV software and technology on the lunar surface before deploying it on the human-rated vehicle.
In this consortium, Lunar Outpost joins the likes of General Motors, Goodyear and MDA. Together with Lockheed Martin, the consortium will use their strength in engineering and their innovative technologies to contribute to the expansion of space exploration and research. At the same time, Lunar Outpost is continuously working to apply these technologies as sustainable solutions for the benefit of Earth and humankind. | [

I can’t tell you how many times I’ve had this conversation…
“So, are you black??”
“No, I’m mixed.”
“You have black in you?”
“Yep. Italian, German, Black, and Cherokee.”
“Oh, well then, you’re black.”
Don’t you think if it was the same thing, I would’ve just said yes?! What was the point of even asking if you were just going to correct me anyways? Look, I know your point of saying being mixed is the same thing as being black, is to prove that you are “cool” with black people, but it’s offensive. When someone takes the time to correct you, it’s because they don’t identify as black. Mixed kids get labeled as white by the black kids, and black as the white kids. We can’t check just one box.
Mixed kids may not have even grown up with all of their races in their household, so when you just assume they understand whatever racial stereotype you are talking/joking to them about, and they give you a blank stare, it’s because they’re thinking to themselves, “What an idiot!” For some reason, people feel the need to bring up racial stereotypes in a joking manner, to prove that they are not racist. In reality, all you are doing is proving that you do believe the stereotypes. That you’re not as open minded as you think you are.
I am the only one that’s mixed in my family. My siblings have a different biological father, who happens to be my dad, so we all grew up together. (If you’re confused by this, don’t worry, I’m sure I’ll have a blog on being a dad vs being a biological father one day…) Everyone else in our house is white. I am very close with my brother, he’s one of my best friends. I remember the first time he introduced me as his half sister. My heart sank into my stomach. We don’t call each other half brothers and sisters. He only did it because he was tired of people giving us the crazy look we get, and the “Wait…What??? Y’all are…???” questions. When I did the same thing with my sister, she felt I was rejecting her. It hurt her for years, until I was able to explain myself.
It’s hard enough not being like the rest of your family, without the outside opinions of all the “super excepting” assholes out there. If you do live in a house with both sides of your heritage, you are most certainly not going to want to only claim one half and completely ignore the other. Both sides have shown you love, so why shouldn’t you be able to claim both?
Stop giving people a hard time because they don’t want to do that. I’m going to say this again, stop trying to make people check one box.
If you really want to be cool and accepting, try getting to know someone…in a normal fashion. Ask them questions about where they’re from; what kind of music they like; what their favorite food is. Don’t just assume they listen to Tejano and love tamales, they may be half French and half Venezuelan. Or they could be half German and half Mexican, and happen to love tamales. If they do love tamales, ask them if their Mom makes them, and then invite yourself over for dinner! This is totally cool AND accepting. | [

Classical Archives is honored to present an exclusive interview that our own Opera Joe McKesson recently recorded with one of today’s leading composers and conductors, Maestro José Serebrier.
How did Maestro Serebrier start his career? What must orchestras to today to hold the attention of audiences? Opera Joe and Maestro Serebrier delve into those questions, and many more.
Opera Joe tells us, “I was so very grateful that Maestro Serebrier took a moment to speak to me about his upcoming CD of world premieres and a new book of his brilliant life in stories. He first conducted an orchestra at the age of eleven. His New York conducting debut with the American Symphony Orchestra was at Carnegie Hall at twenty-seven. A progressive and melodic composer, his works have been greeted with kudos and excitement. He is one of the most recorded conductors in the world with 37 Grammy Nominations and 8 wins, including the Latin American Grammy for the “Carmen” Symphony.”
A new book, José Serebrier: Portraits of the Maestro will soon be released by Amadeus Press. We encourage you to pre-order your copy now. | [

Volotea has reached an agreement with DΔNTE Aeronautical to collaborate in the project to develop a hybrid-electric aircraft for transportation of passengers.
Volotea is partnering with DΔNTE on a long-term project for the configuration of a state-of-the-art hybrid-electric small aircraft suitable to operate small inexistent routes in the next decade.
The new aircraft will be eventually able to serve routes between small and mid-size communities, where traditional aircraft are not profitable and other transport alternatives are not available.
This environmentally friendly project is led by DΔNTE Aeronautical and in which, apart from Volotea, other renowned institutions like Instituto de Empresa in Spain, ALTRAN in Europe and University of Sydney and University of Adelaide in Australia are taking part.
This project intends to boost the economic development of rural environments and underserved touristic destinations constrained today by reduced transport alternatives.
Additionally, the new concept will reduce emissions significantly through the use of electric motors, fed by electricity stored by batteries or generated on board with a highly-efficient internal combustion engine.
Industry objectives like IATA´s reduction in net aviation CO2 emissions of 50% by 2050 (relative to 2005 levels) will only be possible by a change of paradigm. The introduction of alternative technologies to conventional jet engines and turbo propellers are key to achieve that goal.
“As part of our proactive environmental policy, Volotea will actively collaborate with DΔNTE Aeronautical in the development of this hybrid-electric aircraft, in order to support the reduction of carbon emissions and noise from aircraft operations. Volotea will provide DΔNTE with market analysis and technical data. Volotea engineers and commercial specialists have been appointed and made available to validate this market opportunity and provide technical support as well”, Carlos Muñoz, Founder and CEO of Volotea stated.
DΔNTE is an aerospace start-up with presence both in Spain and Australia, created to innovate in the aircraft industry with the integration of advanced manufacturing technologies, aerodynamics and electric power plants.
For that purpose, DΔNTE has commenced the design of a 19 to 35 passenger aircraft with all thrust provided by Distributed Electric Propulsion (DEP), batteries for energy storage and an internal combustion turbo-generator working as “range extender”.
It is envisaged that this technology will allow the commercialization of future full electric aircraft. Although DΔNTE´s plans include a future retrofit to a battery only power-plant, this approach is not deemed commercially realistic until the 2030´s. Instead DΔNTE considers its hybrid solution will reduce fuel consumption and emissions more than 50% much sooner than that.
“If we want to make aviation more sustainable, we need to find the sweet spot between ambitious emissions reduction targets and realistic economic propositions. A full electric aircraft is a nice long term goal, but it will have very little impact in the near term if it is just a niche product for wealthy individuals. Electric powerplants with additional hybrid range extenders represent instead a real opportunity to reduce emissions drastically in the shorter term, because they enable a new market for door to door regional air transport with competitive costs. In DΔNTE we are developing the right technology, and Volotea is showing the drive and interest to make it a commercial reality”, Miguel Madinabeitia, co-founder of DΔNTE Aeronautical.
DΔNTE will work with Volotea to define the specifications of this future air passenger commuter to better adapt the aircraft to the most promising markets and routes where the new technology may be introduced in the future.
In order to validate the market opportunity, DΔNTE and Volotea will working closely and also with business schools like Instituto de Empresa in Spain or University of Adelaide in Australia, to estimate and size a new air transport segment that could be monetised and create thousands of jobs.
Upon the successful completion of this first phase, DΔNTE will enter into the detail design and manufacturing of a scaled prototype to be flight-tested as a prior step to its full industrialization and future commercialization. Volotea and DΔNTE expect their hybrid aircraft will be a commercial reality by mid next decade.
A preliminary configuration is already in place but DΔNTE will work in coming months with top aerospace renowned engineering and research organizations, like ALTRAN in Europe and University of Sydney in Australia to validate all the technical hypothesis and have a basic design that will underpin a future flight test phase. | [

We analyze a unique data set and uncover a remarkable result that casts a new light on the home bias phenomenon. The data are comprehensive, security-level holdings of emerging market equities by U.S. investors. We document, as expected, that at a point in time U.S. portfolios are tilted towards firms that are large, have fewer restrictions on foreign ownership, or are cross-listed on a U.S. exchange. The size of the cross-listing effect is striking. In contrast to the well-documented underweighting of foreign stocks, emerging market equities that are cross-listed on a U.S. exchange are incorporated into U.S. portfolios at full international capital asset pricing model (CAPM) weights. Our results suggest that information asymmetries play an important role in equity home bias and that the benefits of international risk sharing are limited to select firms.From a prudence standpoint, U.S. ownership should be greater in firms with lower volatility. But investors may seek high-risk highreward stocks, GM and Falkenstein (1996) find a positive impact of volatility on U.S. institutionsa#39; domestic anbsp;...

Web Development or Web app development is actually a broad expression used to describe actions that get in website design chlapuchlap.pl intended for intranet. There is a common false impression that web development means advancement website which is exclusive of any designing elements. Website design is the central aspect of software development. The complete process of web design is dominated by style and content. The additional most commonly above looked spot is content designing and development.
Content creating is a very important feature of website development. Lots of the webmasters were slow to realize that articles decides the ongoing future of their on line existence. Content is the king of the internet jargon. Content material designing is one of the most glossed over areas in the web development. Content material designers or content coders are the individuals with specialized expertise who work hand in hand along with the programmers to produce a website or web application. Content designers are differentiated depending on the content format which they are producing for elizabeth. g.: Content designer dealing with the graphical content is referred to as graphical creator. Similarly, content material designer focusing on the program influenced content during application advancement is called developer. Content designers who write instructional texts like manuals and help text messages for web application are Technical internet writers. Content custom working on progress e-learning pages is called training designer. The term content designer is mostly linked to the writer who have designs contextual content designed for the websites.
Quality content determines the success of the webpage or perhaps web program. The quality content material is essential with regards to the success of a website. The success of virtually any website development or application development is caused by the precise ranking of the content material. A website design and style or request design can be termed as effective only if their contents are easier to find and guides the customer to the focused aim. A thorough knowledge of elements linked to specific spot can generate ideas through the initial stages of web design. These options develop into strong advertising angles which arrest the attention of this visitor. The powerful content material always has the capability to retain visitors whereas other contents are just used for encouraging the website. This content development, application development or perhaps web development method should be very well defined with arrangement of content. Content designers should outline many ways to post on the content regularly in order to make it interesting and appealing.
3 things that articles designer ought to keep in mind during content developing for the web development job
1. Articles designer will need to understand the relevancy of content material in particular site or world wide web application. Many times the items are created just to creep into search engines or maybe to grab the visitors focus whereas they do not deliver any particular advantages.
2. Much easier Navigation: Whether it is hard coded programming pièce during request development or possibly a simple text message in web development navigation is the central thing. Write down thier things that may be easily found and easily perceived. Most of the users will reach out to you through internet or customized internet application. Therefore write the text message that can be quickly found. Content material should have clarity, persuasiveness and logic.
three or more. The more worth your content gives to the visitor more they are going to stay on the web page. Adding value happy to your website app is important to maintain the customer.
Next time if you are outlining your web site development technique, put articles designing over a high base and decide the most important goal of your content. | [

It may be cold, but Wisconsin is still beautiful. Here are some stunning photos from the polar vortex
We're almost through the polar vortex. Temperatures are climbing all the way up to minus 2 degrees. While most of Wisconsin is hunkering down, not everyone stayed indoors.
Some ventured outdoors to take photos. The cold weather yielded beautiful sunsets, eerie silhouettes of condensation rising off the Great Lakes and strange ice formations. Plus one hilarious photo of someone in an iced-over car trying to escape (it really captures how we're feeling on day four of this weather).
Here are some of our favorite photos from Instagram. | [

Theme is defined as the underlying meaning in a work of literature. Authors develop theme to connect literature to our daily lives. “The Scarlet Ibis” by James Hurst, “A and P” by John Updike, and “Cold Equations” by Tom Goodwin, all have different themes, but place an important emphasis on the heartache and pain caused by learning the truths in life. In these short stories, each character has a realization about life and it changes their future perspective on the world. The theme in “The Scarlet Ibis” is the duality of pride, and the idea that although some pride is good, when you let it control you, it can be devastating.
David Foster Wallace and Ernest Hemingway are two American writers. Even though they come from different generations, both men argue about the same subject, abortion, which is controversial during their time. While both of their short stories using a third person narrative, Wallace portrays his characters’ actions and behaviours by making readers experience their thoughts in “Good People” while Hemingway portray his characters by allowing readers to observe them from the outside in “Hills Like White Elephants”. Firstly, their different writing styles can help the reader to either understand the characters relationship quickly or slowly. Next, it would seem that the involvement of reader to understand the characters in “Good People” is greater than in “Hills Like White Elephants”.
James Baldwin is a renowned author best known for his work of essays, books and short stories, particularly those which dwell deeply into important social and psychological issues of discrimination, gender inequality, homophobia and so on. One of Mr. Baldwin's most appreciated literary works is the short story 'Sonny's Blues'which focuses on two brothers who grew up together but take different paths in life. The story follows the narrator learning about his brother Sonny's incarceration due to the use and selling of drugs until his brother gets parole. Throughout the story, we learn about the relationship between the pair and are able to witness the narrators ultimate understanding of Sonny and his ambition. As we continue to observe the impressive short story, we find the most recurring theme to be that of sorrow.
People often view these feelings as “illegitimate or not real”, which is unreasonable, I also think it is clearly a reason why victims have a difficult time coping with such struggles. However, a helpful way to cope with the moral injuries or trauma is through storytelling. I think that story telling is a great way for victims to express their feelings rather than ignoring it. The importance of storytelling is also seen in a book I read by Tim O’Brien’s The Things They Carried. In his book, in a collection of short stories, he uses storytelling as an approach to cope with the trauma after the atrocities of the Vietnam war.
F Scott Fitzgerald uses topics like the past and inequality in society to make his theme of the decline of the american dream clear. This matters because this book is widely read and widely respected, people read this book and get attached with its characters. There are lessons in every chapter of this book that can teach you what the american dream is and how you can ruin it. This book allows people to learn from the mistakes of its characters, as to not make modern day society not like the society in the 1920s New York, East
Generally, a person is bullied because they are thought of as different, but if one isn't affected by this bullying, then they are honoring who they are on the inside. Standing out is rather okay if you are remembering that you are a single person. Also, this could be connected to an idea that Aristotle had, which was that everything posses its own “entelechy”, meaning that everything will eventually reach its highest potential. From there, this could be connected to the idea that everything happens for a reason, because everything has to happen for one to possess its greatest potential. Everything that occurs in life will either be a direct benefit or will be a learning experience, all of which will lead to something great.
Unbroken The author wrote this story to inform the reader of the life of Louis Zamperini, while also telling the story in an entertaining way. Hillenbrand demonstrated the main idea throughout the book by using rhetorical devices such as diction, syntax, imagery, and tone. Hillenbrand’s use of these rhetorical devices contribute to the book Unbroken by emphasizing the main character, Louis “Louie” Zamperini’s, life before, during, and after becoming a prisoner of war. In the novel, the author changes the tone throughout the book to add emotion to the story. In the beginning, she uses a depressing tone while also including statistics and the death rates throughout World War II.
Particular Purposes An author’s purpose is often revealed through the rhetorical strategies that he/she uses throughout their piece. David Sheff uses anecdotes and emotional appeal in order to achieve his purpose: to | [

Running Ethernet cables in a factory environment can present several challenges due to the unique characteristics and requirements of factory settings. Yet the Industrial 4.0 wave sweeping around the world demands faster and more prevalent ethernet connectivity. Benefits arising from a connected factory range from IIoT, remote monitoring, asset tracking, worker safety and productivity to the more obvious and talked about automation and robotics.
Challenges Presented by Ethernet Cabling – and the Solution
Meeting the growing demand for more bandwidth in challenging environments requires a more effective approach. The Airvine WaveTunnel system is a solution that addresses these challenges. It is a point-to-point-to-point backbone solution that operates wirelessly in the 60GHz frequency band, offering a range of up to 100 meters and a throughput of up to 2Gbps. The WaveTunnel’s unique signal can penetrate walls and steer 90 degrees around corners, simplifying deployment.
|Factories’ harsh operating environments, with extreme temperatures, dust, moisture, chemicals, vibrations, and other factors, can damage Ethernet cables. To maintain reliable performance, ruggedized industrial-grade Ethernet cables, which are more expensive, are required.
|Keep the network off the floor.
The WT nodes are mounted on the ceilings or high up on walls. No special cables are required, and in these locations the units are spared from much of the environmental effects.
|Factories can have complex layouts with various physical obstacles such as machinery, equipment, piping, and structural elements that can hinder the installation of Ethernet cables. Routing Ethernet cables through tight spaces, around obstacles, or in hard-to-reach areas may require careful planning and installation expertise.
|Get rid of the cables all together.
Mounted on the ceilings, the WT avoids all the equipment placement and routing issues involved when running a wire on the floor, or even worse under the floor.
|Ethernet cable length is limited based on the Ethernet standard used (e.g., copper or fiber), necessitating the use of additional networking equipment such as switches or repeaters in large factories to extend its range.
|If longer distances are needed, the WT can be deployed point-to-point-to-point for a reach of 200m. Add a fourth node and reach 300m and so on – with no signal degradation.
|Flexibility and Scalability
|Installing Ethernet cables in a way that allows for future flexibility and scalability can be challenging, as it requires careful planning, cable management, and documentation to ensure ease of maintenance and future modifications.
|Keep it simple.
The WT network is wireless, making it easy to relocate the WT node as the factory configuration changes or expand the floor space by simply moving, mounting, and plugging in the node.
|Safety and Regulations
|Compliance with safety regulations, such as electrical codes, fire codes, and safety guidelines, may require additional precautions, certifications, or specialized cabling solutions, which can add complexity and challenges to the installation process.
|Bypass the specialized cabling solutions.
With wireless CAT5 backbone powered by WT, complicated cabling regulations are a thing of the past.
|Maintenance and Troubleshooting
|In factory environments, maintaining and troubleshooting Ethernet cables requires specialized tools and expertise to minimize disruptions to production processes caused by issues like cable breaks, connector failures, or signal disruptions.
|Implement a wireless network.
There are no cable breaks to decipher and no switches to cool and a WT network can be designed to provide 99.99% availability.
In the future, fast and reliable connectivity will be crucial for the development of factories, and traditional wired approaches present challenges as outlined earlier. While Ethernet cabling will remain a component of factory networks, incorporating WaveTunnel nodes offers increased flexibility and faster upgrades.

Citigroup has appointed Carmen Haddad as chief executive officer (CEO) with responsibility for developing its business in Saudi Arabia, according to reports. The group is also said to be in advanced discussions with Saudi Arabia’s Capital Market Authority for an investment-banking licence to operate in the country. Citigroup lost a key banking licence when it sold its stake in Samba Financial Group in 2004.
Haddad leads Citigroup’s strategy and business development for the kingdom and her appointment as CEO for Saudi Arabia is expected to be made official once the group’s banking licence from the market regulator is confirmed. In the interim, she will continue in her role as CEO of Citigroup’s Qatar operations until a replacement is found and will also retain her position as a senior private banker in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) region, Egypt and the Levant.

This makes our ongoing lives surplus to requirements – and yet we go on to live another 20, 30 or even 40 years.
This is odd, because we’re meant to be physically slowing down, right? We’re meant to be taking it easy?
A fascinating new theory from evolutionary biologists and biomedical researchers at Harvard suggests that humans evolved to be active in their later years – to sustain a longer lifespan and ‘healthspan’.
According to ‘the active grandfather hypothesis’, physical activity later in life “shifts energy away from processes that can compromise health and toward mechanisms in the body that extend it”.
In other words, we’re meant to stay physically active, which protects against heart disease, cancers and problems such a type 2 diabetes.
Presumably, as social animals, in order to keep ourselves useful by helping out with raising our demanding youngsters. But there’s also the question of ‘wise authority’.
Older people tend to be psychologically healthier than younger people, in that they develop a ‘big picture’ view of life based on acquired perspective.
But to have some authority with their messaging to go-getting youngsters requires some physical vigour and confidence – and that comes from being active.
More than a pep talk
“It’s a widespread idea in Western societies that as we get older, it’s normal to slow down, do less, and retire,” said the study’s lead author, Professor Daniel Lieberman.
“Our message is the reverse: As we get older, it becomes even more important to stay physically active.”
The whole thing smacks of a pep talk from your GP.
But fossil evidence indicates that these extended lifespans “were common 40,000 years ago, contrary to the belief that human lifespans until recently were short”.
This certainly suggests we have evolved to live longer – from when Homo sapiens first appeared about 300,000 years ago in an archaic form. Modern Homo sapiens emerged about 160,000 years ago.
That we live longer today tends to be ascribed to better diet and health care – but that’s a complicated issue because, as The New Daily has previously reported, the Western diet, including that consumed by Australians, isn’t so healthy. See here, here and here.
Once we were couch potatoes
An intriguing part of this new theory is that we actually “evolved from couch potatoes” – and we’re no longer built to be couch potatoes.
This idea came from studying our ape cousins, “which usually live only about 35 to 40 years in the wild and rarely survive past menopause”.
They’re considerably less active than most humans, “suggesting that there was selection in human evolution not just to live longer but also to be more physically active”.
“We evolved basically from couch potatoes,” said Professor Lieberman, who has twice observed wild chimpanzees in Tanzania and been surprised by how much of their day is spent “sitting on their butts, digesting”.
By comparison, contemporary hunter-gatherers average about 135 minutes of moderate to vigorous physical activity a day.
This level of movement is “thought to be a key reason hunter-gatherers who survive childhood live about seven decades, approximately 20 years past the age at which humans stop having children, and also enjoy a longer ‘healthspan’, which is defined as the years of life spent in good health”.
Researchers examined two pathways by which lifelong physical activity reallocates energy to improve health.
The first involves “steering excess energy away from potentially harmful mechanisms, like excess fat storage”.
The second mechanism is how physical activity allocates energy to repair and maintenance processes”.
The paper shows that besides burning calories, physical activity is physiologically stressful, causing damage to the body at the molecular, cellular, and tissue levels.
The body’s response to this damage, however, “is essentially to build back stronger”.
The authors say this includes repairing tears in muscle fibres, repairing cartilage damage, and healing microfractures.
The response also causes the release of exercise-related antioxidants and anti-inflammatories, and enhances blood flow. | [

AG Nessel Joins Coalition in Fight for States' Power to Enact Public Health Policies That Will Protect Against Opioid Overdose Deaths
October 01, 2021
LANSING - Michigan Attorney General Dana Nessel joined a coalition of 11 attorneys general in a friend-of-the-court brief urging the Supreme Court to hear a case supporting states' rights to enact public health policies that can prevent opioid overdose deaths and treat those suffering from opioid use disorder.
The coalition, led by District of Columbia Attorney General Karl A. Racine, is asking the Supreme Court to review a ruling by the U.S Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit that prevents Safehouse, a Pennsylvania nonprofit, from operating a lifesaving "safe injection site" that can prevent opioid overdose deaths. This medically-supervised site would afford those who consume opioids immediate medical care in the event of an overdose. The Trump Administration sued to prevent Safehouse from operating the program.
"Preventing Safehouse and entities like it from operating will not save lives or reverse the harm inflicted by this ongoing epidemic - it only penalizes people struggling with an opioid addiction," Nessel said. "It should be up to individual states and communities to oversee and implement public health policies and I join my colleagues in urging the Supreme Court to hear this case."
Medical supervision saves lives because death can occur within minutes of using heroin or fentanyl, a dangerous synthetic opioid, often too quickly for emergency responders to arrive on the scene. These sites also reduce the risks associated with public usage and contaminated needles. Safehouse also plans to offer drug treatment options, primary medical care, and wraparound social services that can help treat those suffering from opioid use disorder. There are approximately 120 safe injection sites operating in ten countries around the world.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, 136 Americans die each day from an opioid overdose. Opioid deaths have been on the rise in the United States since 1999. The death toll now totals nearly 500,000.
In their brief, the attorneys general support Safehouse and urge the Supreme Court to hear this case because:
- This is an issue of national importance that requires innovation at the local and state levels: The opioid crisis affects every state in the nation, including the District, which has been disproportionately impacted by the crisis. States have reported startling numbers of overdose deaths and other dire consequences stemming from opioid use disorder. Many states and local governments are considering safe injection sites as one way to prevent overdose deaths and promote public health. The Court's decision about the future of Safehouse could impact the future of other similar sites.
- The ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has heightened the opioid crisis and reinforced the need for more solutions: According to the American Medical Association, every "state has reported a spike or increase in overdose deaths or other problems during the COVID-19 pandemic." And individuals with substance use disorders are at increased risk of COVID-19 exposure and of severe disease due to COVID-19. Safe injection sites like Safehouse offer users medical care along with life-saving support, including immediate access to sterile injection equipment, opioid reversal agents like Naloxone, and pathways into drug treatment programs.
- States have a well-established role in enacting public health and safety programs: States are on the front lines battling the opioid crisis and have historically enjoyed broad powers to protect public health. For example, many states have implemented Good Samaritan laws, which encourage victims and bystanders to seek help for those experiencing a drug overdose by offering limited immunity from drug-related charges. States have also implemented needle exchange programs, which provide clean needles to prevent the spread of diseases. It is crucial that states and localities maintain the flexibility to act quickly to adopt public health solutions that address their residents' needs.
Joining Attorney General Nessel in this brief are the attorneys general from Delaware, the District of Columbia, Illinois, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New Mexico, Oregon, Rhode Island, Vermont, and Virginia. | [

When we first checked in we were in the motel side of the building, and the room was smaller that what we anticipated and there was only one small slow elevator to get back and forth to the beach and pool, we were a little disappointed, my husband went to talk to the front desk manager and he upgraded us to the townhome and it was awesome! Beautiful on beach view, especially from the upstaris balcony. Nice walk to the pool on the Tiki hut board walk, easy beach access and kid friendly. The pool was outdoors, but heated so even in April we could swim. The cleaning staff was so friendly, we really enjoyed speaking to them everyday. Our refreigerator broke on the second day into our week vacation and they were prompt on getting a replacement. They provide a good amount of dishes and cookwear in the kitchen. Mexico beach is a very small beach area, when the tide comes in there is not much room to lounge on the beach, but it is very pretty and easy destination from Georgia. All in all we would visit again for a little getaway.... the hotel is older and could definately use some updating, but decent place to rest your head in between lounging on the beach.

Loonie hits 4-year low amid weak Chinese manufacturing data

The Canadian dollar was trading at its lowest level in more than four years early Thursday after a weak report on Chinese manufacturing and the Bank of Canada’s latest interest decision, before recovering somewhat in the afternoon.
The loonie traded as low as 89.35 cents U.S. in the morning Thursday, a level that it hadn’t reached since July 17, 2009 when it was at 89.32.
By 2:30 p.m., the Canadian dollar was worth 89.76 cents U.S., down 0.43 from Wednesday’s close.
In its latest economic reading on Wednesday, Canada’s central bank said it expects the Canadian dollar to remain strong and “continue to pose competitiveness challenges for Canada’s non-commodity exports.”
It stopped short of calling the currency overvalued, as it left its key interest rate unchanged at one per cent. The central bank also noted that inflation has been lower than expected and won’t return to its ideal target of two per cent until 2016.
“If it was the BoC’s intention to ease some of the pressure on the Canadian dollar, it was certainly not the tonic needed,” wrote Mark Chandler, head of Canadian FIC Strategy at RBC Dominion Securities.
Meanwhile, the results of HSBC’s preliminary survey of Chinese factory purchasing managers in January fell below the level indicating expansion for the first time since July.
The report came days after data showed China’s economy slowed in the final quarter of 2013

Social service provider Fale Pasifika o Aoraki is expanding its services in Oamaru.
The Timaru-based provider launched its Oamaru branch, as well as an anti-bullying project, in July 2014.
Manager Ofa Boyle said rolling out new programmes and services targeting family violence, youth, translators, health, education and leadership started in March and was working well.
“Pasifika people helping Pasifika people works very well.”
She said mainstream services were not always framed in a holistic way to meet the needs of Pasifika Oamaruvians.
Society worker Mele Siale said having Pasifika people who used to hold positions as teachers or translators back in their home countries helping out at a local level gave the service an edge.
“We will talk to someone and we can read between the lines,” she said.
“We are not known for being straightforward with our answers; we are body language people.”
Mrs Boyle believes her group will have an impact on family violence.
“Family violence is a hard subject to talk about, no matter if you’re a Palagi (European) or wherever you come from.”
She said there were issues with some local Pasifika groups when it came to rolling out anti-violence messages and literal interpretations in some Bible passages.
Mrs Boyle said the programme was designed to connect local Pasifika with relevant health and education providers to help them progress and make positive choices. | [

A grieving husband wants to honour a wish he and his deceased wife had to have a child and is claiming the costs of surrogacy in a High Court action following her death from cervical cancer.
The case against the HSE, three laboratories and a hospital centres on the alleged misinterpretation of the woman’s cervical smear sample in 2011 taken under the CervicalCheck national screening programme.
Padraig Creaven’s wife Aoife was around 20 weeks pregnant through IVF in 2014 when she found out she had terminal cervical cancer and her life expectancy was limited.
Today, the High Court heard how she had to travel to London and have the much-wanted pregnancy terminated as chemotherapy was the only option.
She and her husband, Mr Creaven’s counsel Jeremy Maher SC said, had “the most extraordinary and difficult dilemma” and the “necessary course of action was to terminate the pregnancy”.
Aoife Mitchell Creaven when she died over a year later on April 20, 2015, was 40 years of age and only five stone in weight.
Her husband, counsel said, was left alone with no child and a widower at 44 years of age and her death had a devastating effect on him.
Mr Maher SC, with Ciara McGoldrick BL and instructed by solicitor Cian O’Carroll, told the court that the cost of surrogacy is part of Mr Creaven’s claim.
Aoife Mitchell Creaven from Menlo, Galway, found out in November 2013 she and her husband were to become parents after years of IVF treatment and they were “deliriously happy”. But counsel in an opening statement to the court said their joy with the pregnancy after several unsuccessful IVF attempts was short-lived and Ms Mitchell Creaven found out she had terminal cervical cancer after discovering a lump on her neck in January 2014.
The couple, counsel said, had to tell Aoife’s parents Gabriel and Marcella Mitchell of her pregnancy and also that she was dying. Counsel said her father collapsed on the floor on hearing the news.
Surgery was not an option and Ms Mitchell Creaven required chemotherapy and counsel said there was a great concern about delay in treatment and in relation to the pregnancy.
He said the couple, when Aoife was dying, had to attend a medical conference in Cork where medics discussed her case and a decision was made that the termination under the legislation at the time could not take place in Ireland. The couple decided they would have to look outside of Ireland.
Ms Mitchell Creaven along with her mother went to London in mid-March 2014 and the termination took place, After that counsel said the couple tried to find anything to prolong Aoife’s life but she died in 2015.
Now, counsel said, Mr Creaven is determined to honour his wife's wish and proceed to have a child through surrogacy. The couple’s frozen embryos are in a fertility clinic in the Czech Republic and Mr Creaven wants to go to the US for surrogacy.
“It is the only way he can fulfill the wish they both had,” counsel added.
He told Ms Justice Deirdre Murphy there was no reason surrogacy costs should not be included in the claim.
The case, counsel said, also includes a claim for aggravated or punitive damages in relation to an alleged comment by a consultant to a member of Aoife’s family during a disclosure meeting in 2018 in relation to the result of a CervicalCheck audit of the 2011 slide. The consultant’s alleged comment "well, nuns don’t get cervical cancer", counsel said, was grossly insensitive.
Aoife’s husband Padraig Creaven has sued on behalf of himself and Aoife’s family.
Mr Padraig Creaven of Menlo, Co. Galway, has sued the HSE and three laboratories, Sonic Healthcare (Ireland ) Ltd with offices at Sandyford Business Park, Dublin; MedLab Pathology Ltd also of Sandyford Business Park and US laboratory Clinical Pathology Laboratories Incorporated (CPL) of Austin, Texas.
The case is also against Coombe Women and Infants University Hospital, Dublin.
Ms Mitchell Creaven had a cervical smear test under the CervicalCheck national screening program on August 8, 2011.
She was advised on August 31, 2011, that no abnormalities were detected.
On February 26, 2014, Ms Mitchell Creaven was diagnosed as having Stage Four cervical cancer at the time she was around 20 weeks pregnant following her fifth cycle of IVF fertility treatment.
It is claimed that a review of the 2011 cervical smear slide was carried out in 2014 but the Creaven Mitchell families were not told until 2018 by a hospital consultant that the smear slide was reported incorrectly.
It is claimed against the HSE and the three laboratories that there was an alleged failure to report that the smear slide of 2011 was abnormal and Ms | [

Nuclear Fusion Reactions
and the formation of 'heavier elements'
Know and understand that nuclear fusion is the joining together of atomic nuclei and is the process by
which energy is released in stars.
Compare the uses of nuclear fusion and nuclear fission,
but limited to the generation of electricity
and comparison of methods of generating electricity
Energy resources & uses, general survey & trends, comparing sources of renewables, non-renewables
At the extremely high
temperatures (107 oC = 10 million degrees!) in the 'heart' of stars the atomic nuclei have such enormous speeds
and kinetic energies that on collision they can fuse together - the nuclear
process of fusion.
Extremely high temperatures (and
needed to give the particles sufficiently high kinetic energy to overcome the natural and massive
forces of the two positive
nuclei involved e.g. two positive hydrogen nuclei (+) <==> (+).
The process by
which a heavier atomic nucleus is made from two smaller atomic nuclei is called
and these changes also release enormous amounts of energy.
In a nuclear fusion process two smaller
atomic nuclei may fuse into one larger nucleus or a larger nucleus that
either of the starting nuclei plus a smaller nucleus.
Either way a heavier nucleus is created.
One advantage of nuclear fusion over
nuclear fission is that little radioactive
waste is produced, BUT, technically, nuclear fusion has proved
technically very difficult to produce a continuous energy output, and we are
a very long way from a nuclear fusion power station generating electricity.
The lightest atom is hydrogen, this is converted to helium and gradually all the
other elements up to uranium must have been formed in stars like the Sun, but it
takes a massive star undergoing a supernova explosion to make the heaviest
Attempts are being made by
nuclear scientists and engineers to build prototype nuclear fusion reactors
BUT the task of maintaining nuclear fusion is proving extremely difficult.
You have to maintain an extremely high temperature and confine and control
the plasma of hydrogen atoms fusing into helium atoms with powerful magnetic
fields and this is proving technically very difficult, since you can't use a
So far, in a few experimental fusion
reactors, fusion has only been created for a
fraction of a second but cannot be controlled and sustained yet!
In fact its taking far more power to
create the fusion than any energy released, not a good deal for the consumer
at the moment!
Examples of fusion nuclear equations
(get the balancing?)....
===> hydogen-2 + positron (beta plus particle)
(initially a heavier isotope of hydrogen is formed and a positron)
+ hydrogen-2 ===> helium-3
two hydrogen-2 ===> hydrogen-3 + hydrogen-1
two hydrogen-2 ===>
helium-3 + neutron
===> helium-3 + neutron
===> helium-4 + two hydrogen-1
hydrogen-2 ===> helium-4 + neutron
helium nuclei fuse to form lithium,
then from carbon to oxygen etc.
and lots of alternative fusions like
(k) gradually building up elements with increasing atomic and mass numbers, and
finally the massive isotope of uranium,
the biggest 'naturally' occurring
(a), (b) and
are believed to be the main initial energy releasing fusion nuclear reactions in the Sun,
they happen quite nicely at 15 000 000oC!
main sequence stars, like our own sun, converting hydrogen to helium in nuclear fusion,
and also in red giants the elements from lithium (3Li) to iron (26Fe)
are formed from fusing heavier nuclei, BUT...
On 'Earth' super-heavy' elements
are being made in nuclear reactors by bombarding elements like uranium (atomic
number 92) with lighter particles
Elements heavier than
iron, (cobalt to uranium, atomic numbers 27 to 92), are only formed in a supernova
explosion of a red supergiant in a truly 'cosmic' scale explosion, where the temperatures are much higher
than the 15 million degrees of the Sun!
The positive nuclei of heavier
elements need enormous kinetic energies to overcome the massive repulsion
forces between the positively charged nuclei, and fuse to make an
even larger nucleus.
The hydrogen atomic bomb - the
ultimate nuclear weapon uses fusion, not fission
The hydrogen atomic bomb was developed
after WW2 in which fission bombs were dropped on the Japanese cities of
Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
As already mentioned, an extremely high
temperature is needed.
This is provided uses the energy from
uncontrolled nuclear fission to produce the necessary temperature for
So, the hydrogen bomb is triggered to
reproduce the energy releasing nuclear physics of a sun.
The hydrogen fusion bomb is many times
more powerful than a fission bomb.

DAB+ Network Implementation in the Czech Republic and Impact of the Audio Coding on Subjective Perception of Sound Quality
MetadataZobrazit celý záznam
Digital Audio Broadcasting (DAB+) is becoming a reality in the Czech Republic. The first nationwide DAB+ network, based on the regular broadcasting, is being completed. This paper presents the principles that were used to achieve a quick and efficient penetration of the DAB+ signal in the Czech population and the highways. Attention is focused on practical experience with the use of High-Efficiency Advanced Audio Coding (HE-AAC) emphasizing maximum efficiency of the multiplex. This is done with respect to the subjective perception of sound quality by the audience. Final audio processing and appropriate signal pre-processing are considered. The paper also focuses on how to use Forward Error Correction (FEC) coding to increase the reach of transmitters and the reasons for employing the specific transmitter network configuration, including indoor reception. The results of this complex method are demonstrated on the network rollout in particular periods, while the key assumptions were verified. The entire development process can be monitored on the maps of coverage.

The quote above from Matthew 6:13 was stirred by things I’ve been excruciatingly tempted to write in furious and sarcastic reaction to some of the ruinous ideologies being spun and enforced by those in power and by those claiming to be in the know.
But who am I to write about such things? I’m no expert. And how is getting myself all twisted up in a negative, emotional knot going to benefit anybody, including myself? It became obvious, then, to say to God, “Lead me not into that temptation,” or “Please don’t let me go that route, because I could make a horrible mess of things if I do.”
I can see why Jesus coupled “lead us not” with “deliver us from the evil one,” because temptation is the devil’s weapon of choice in messing us up. He used it on Adam and Eve, and again on Jesus – tempting Jesus to feel the need to prove he was the Son of God by magically turning rocks into loaves of bread, by flinging himself off the highest point of the temple wall to be saved by angels, and by grabbing the chance to create a new world order, a great reset that would solve all the world’s problems right away. All excruciatingly tempting.
I feel a pang of sympathy, therefore, for those in rulership and influential positions today, because they face enormous temptations too, having learned from the pandemic how much power they’ve got. They can shut down entire nations’ economies, and through fear and intimidation create compliance to their most draconian decrees. And the wealth they accumulated too, by forcing people to buy online rather than local businesses, and by claiming we’ll only be safe if everyone is injected, the profits from which have been (and still are) astounding.
Think of how tempting it must be, then, for those in government, media, and corporations to believe they have the power of gods. And to realize they can bully, lie, deceive and be hypocrites to their heart’s content, and amazingly get away with it. And if people resist, well that just plays into the hands of those seeking to set up a police state to control our every movement.
Imagine what having that kind of power, therefore, might tempt people into doing, that’s not only dangerous for us but for them too, taking into account Jesus saying “it’s easier to gallop a camel through a needle’s eye than for the rich to enter God’s kingdom” (Matthew 19:24) – and especially when the rich justify their quest for power and money with moral sounding platitudes.
But in this world it looks like the rich and powerful have got it made. Allowing themselves to be led by temptation, however, is dancing to the devil’s tune. He has them by the nose. And what strength do they have to resist? Do they even want to resist? Which is troubling because King David wrote in Psalm 37:35-36, “I (too) have seen a wicked and ruthless man flourishing like a green tree in its native soil, but he soon passed away and was no more; though I looked for him, he could not be found.” One day no one will know these ruthless profiteers of today even existed.
So I have to ask God to not let me fall for the temptation of hating them, because my hate won’t do them any good, or me. What they need, just as desperately as I need it, is the power to see temptation and resist it, because in “resisting the devil he will flee from you,” James 4:7. | [

Hi, any recs for Normal Heights? Staying for a week with my sister. She's vegetarian & I'm adventurous. Especially interested in ethnic places, i.e. vietnamese/oriental cuisines, russian/polish, greek/mid-eastern plus unusual venues.
I've heard about the mexican popsicle place across from LeStats & Mariposa for ice cream. Any other interesting treats in the neighborhood?
There's a new Thai place, Pinto's, near the Olde Soud, that's not bad, though I think Bankok Spices Thai on El Cajon is a bit better. Private Reserve/Rosie O'Grady's has surprisingly good Mexican food (not sure about veggie options there, though). And Cantina Mayahuel on Adams near 30th. If she eats shellfish/seafood, there's the Mariscos German taco truck at 35th+University. For middle eastern, there's Mama's on Alabama just south of El Cajon Blvd. And I think Pomegranate on El Cajon Blvd near Texas has many veggie dishes.
There is anew Asian restaurant on Adams Street called Tao next door to the Viva Pops, (which I think is the Popsicle place you mentioned). It is operated by the Chef of Dao Son, an inexpensive Vietnamese/Japanese restaurant on El Cajon Blvd.
I had read that they make their own tofu there. We tried a sample at a recent food festival and while I usually do not enjoy tofu, I thought theirs tasted very good.
Mariposa will hit the spot on these warm days.
We have a new el Zarape on Adams, owned by the same people as the El Zarape on PArk Blvd. They offer a different dining experience. There are no combo plates or fast food style dishes. They have a full bar and menu. I recently had the mole and wife had the Enchiladas. We were very pleased and their prices were under 14 per plate.
In Kensington you should also check out Blue Boheme. It is a very nice French Bistro.
Thanks for all the great suggestions. I'm really looking forward to this trip. I am going to forget all about watching what I eat & enjoy EVERYTHING!
My 13-year old son is has declared his theme for this trip to San Diego (his fourth) to be Strange Foods. I have a separate post for that &, other than the insects & fermented squid guts, it all sounds fabulous. Can't wait. | [

In case you missed the memo, Cassini is no more. Although it plunged through the Saturnian skies and fragmented into a million little pieces, the wealth of data it collected on its arduous, glorious journey will continue to lead to scientific papers, discoveries, and the occasional nostalgic, melancholic tear or two from space aficionados around the world.
Back in November, NASA unleashed a beautiful mosaic of images taken by Cassini, said to be its last ever shots before it met its dramatic doom. However, far from stopping there, NASA – almost grimly keen to show us the final few hours of the space probe’s deadly cascade in as much detail as possible – has set another image loose on the public.
Releasing a new image of Saturn’s night side, illuminated by sunlight reflected by its spectacular rings, a white oval adorns the image. This is where Cassini, driven to its own demise by those ruthless engineers at the venerable space agency, would ultimately pierce through the hazy clouds and begin pushing up the daisies on September 15, 2017.
This image, taken through a variety of spectral filters, is a composite, one that’s designed to look as much like the real thing as possible. They were taken on September 14 – less than a day before its personal apocalypse – at a distance of around 634,000 kilometers (394,000 miles) from Saturn.
Prior to its death, Cassini managed to build up a solid picture of the gas giant’s gravitational well and its enigmatic magnetic field, as well as helped to work out what the Solar System’s most aesthetically pleasing world is actually composed of. We also now have a better understanding of its satellites and its rings, particularly its inner slithers, which the spacecraft passed daringly close to multiple times during the appropriately named “Grand Finale” final mission stage.
Ending its 13-year-long exploration of the Saturnian system, and its 20-year-long overall journey through the shadows of space, the metal servant of humanity was purposefully piloted into the gas giant, ensuring that an accidental, contaminating crash onto one of its potentially habitable moons never took place.
NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL) noted that, shortly after entering the atmosphere at breakneck speeds, it “burned up and disintegrated like a meteor”, a send-off many of us, we’re sure, would like when the time comes.
Don’t expect this image to be the last of Cassini, by the way. It sent back reams of data during its mission, which will be thoroughly perused through and analyzed for years, and decades, to come. | [

A New TV Show for Nina Garcia
(NEW YORK) When it comes to television and Nina Garcia, Project Runway is only the beginning. The Marie Claire fashion director has a role in The Beautiful Life, the CW's new dramatic series about struggling models in New York which premieres on September 16. An executive producer for the network reached out to Marie Claire editor in chief Joanna Coles, who "thought it would be great for Nina," according to a magazine spokesperson. Garcia spent two days filming the series downtown and is confirmed to appear in one episode of the show (for now), which stars Mischa Barton, Sara Paxton and Elle Macpherson. Will Garcia's role be recurring? Only time--and ratings--will tell.

In their haste to increase user adoption and achieve ROI from CRM, executives sometimes set-up roadblocks to their own success. That’s right, company executives can frequently be the speed bump hampering their CRM success.
How can this be? The issue to companies’ lack of success with a CRM implementation comes subtlety after implementing a CRM software. For some reason, with the implementation of CRM software, companies shift the focus from results to CRM software utilization. Let me give you four examples:
1) Executives begin managing activities instead of results
Now that information is available in a CRM system, it is very tempting to try and measure everything related to front-line users’ activities. Phone calls, meetings, emails, opportunity steps, etc. all become available, and a subtle shift happens as companies’ begin to judge their front-line users based on their ability to populate their CRM system, rather than their sales and customer service success.
2) Executives demand detailed reports
Along the same lines, now that a company has a way to gather data, they tend to ask their front-line users to gather data for the sake of reporting. Now, I’m not against reporting, but I am against asking front-line users to enter data that is only necessary for reporting. My belief is that if the data is not useful to the user, the customer, or marketing, then don’t gather the data. Stay away from the temptation to be data gluttons.
3) Executives require CRM usage but don’t use it themselves
You may say, yes they do, our executives get reports from CRM every week; however, if your executive is calling and asking a front-line user for information he or she has already entered into the CRM system, they are telling the user that entering the information into CRM is not useful to them. For an executive to accelerate CRM usage, looking to the CRM system for all information related to the customer, and depending on CRM for executive decision making shows the front-line users that the CRM system is indeed a worthy tool.
4) Executives manage rather than coach users
One of the greatest opportunities due to the visibility of data in CRM is that executives should now be able to see where users may need additional coaching. For example, by looking at a sales funnel for an individual user, a manager may see where a particular front-line user is struggling and offer coaching to help them through a particular stage that may be causing trouble for that user. Another example is a manager reviewing large open opportunities and calling the front-line user to discuss sales strategies for the opportunities.
So what should you do? Define results and focus on those results, not clicks and activities. Do not give into the temptations of data gluttony and activity tracking. Finally, use the CRM system as the main source for information about the customer, and use the information to drive coaching of front-line users. | [

BUSINESS CLASS INTERNET
When we talk about Office Internet, what is the ideal connection you are looking for?
Your internet connection is your business’ lifeline. If your bandwidth can’t keep up with your organization’s needs, efficiency will suffer.
DEDICATED Internet is what we need for business connectivity, these bandwidth speeds are consistent in both directions, and the network is available 24 hours a day with no slow-down during peak times.
Let's have a look at your solutions to fit your Kenyan office internet needs.
So what are the benefits of Business Class Fiber connection that will ensure your organization can lead the pack and gain a competitive edge.
- Business fiber bandwidth is dedicated.
- Dedicated means your connection goes directly and only to your office location. You don’t share with neighbouring businesses.
- The result is faster speeds, less latency, and packet-loss.
- Business internet service offers static IPs.
- Static IPs are needed for hosting your own infrastructure like file and mail servers.
- Static IPs are more reliable and secure.
- Business fiber is symmetrical.
- Symmetrical means you can upload as fast as you download.
- Symmetrical connections are crucial for businesses that backup data to offsite centres and utilize cloud services.
- An SLA guarantees your business receives the service and speed as promised by the provider.
- If your connection degrades, the SLA gives the customer an opportunity to negotiate the terms and pricing of their service agreement. | [

The interior of the Volkswagen ID.Buzz is made of recycled and sustainable materials, which reduces carbon emissions by 32%. Volkswagen ID.Buzz will make its global debut on March 9.
Volkswagen has shared a glimpse of the interior of the ID.Buzz electric car that will make its global debut on March 9. Volkswagen has planned to offer two versions of this EV – a bus and a cargo van – inspired by the company’s popular Microbus. This new generation of electric Volkswagen Microbus has been completely revamped and redesigned with a spacious interior made of sustainable materials.
In both models, Volkswagen has replaced leather and animal-derived materials with sustainable materials that will give occupants the same properties and feel as: The steering wheel rim is made of polyurethane but has the same high quality look as leather and comes with a similar feel. Seat covers, floor coverings and headers in ID. The Buzz model is made up of recycled materials – materials made from recycled products. A fabric called Seaqual yarn has been used with threads consisting of 10% marine plastic and about 90% recycled PET bottles. Volkswagen says this results in a 32% reduction in carbon emissions compared to similar products.
The automaker says it doesn’t matter whether customers choose a bus or a cargo variant as both models are space efficient as it is based on the space-saving MEB concept. ID five seats. Buzz will give users space for 1,121 liters of luggage even with all passengers on board while ID’s maximum storage capacity. Buzz Cargo, with a partition behind the first row of seats, offers more than 3.9 square meters of space.
Volkswagen considers the ID.Buzz EV as an extension of its ID family. The company aims to reduce Europe’s carbon emissions by 40% per vehicle by 2030 and become a carbon-free carmaker by 2050.

As each year draws to a close and I ponder possibilities for the next, I try to find one particular word to carry into the newness. I wait for one that rises to the surface and won’t be quieted. For 2022, it was “surrender” and I have to confess, it was beautiful but also painful at times. Much like life in general. And now as I sit down to write post-holidays after a glorious time spent with family, I unfurl and unpack my one word for 2023, which happens to be “STORY” …
“A storyteller’s job is to find the common threads in this tattered world and hold them out so that a reader will grab and pull until the veil is torn in two and they behold the heart of God.” Robin Jones Gunn
I realize you may be wondering why “story” is suddenly so profound for one who spends her days writing actual stories as a fiction author! Truly, I count it an absolute privilege to be able to serve readers by writing books, particularly where hope and faith and truth are threaded through the pages, but we are all storytellers in real life—and this year I want to pay attention to story in fresh ways.
In an interview on the Make It Count podcast, I was asked what legacy I want to pass down to those I know and love. This was a tough question for me. After much consideration and deliberation, I decided upon a legacy of STORY.
(If you’d like to check out that podcast episode, you can find it here: MAKE IT COUNT with Sue Donaldson.)
After all, it’s through STORY that I am able to “write heartwarming encouragement for your soul” in my work life. But also, we humans love to listen to story, we are connected by story, traditions and cultures live on through story, Jesus Himself used story—there’s immense power in story!
“After nourishment, shelter, and companionship, stories are the thing we need most in the world.” Philip Pullman
Therefore, in 2023, I want to be more intentional with:
- WRITING— as a fiction author, I have a constant stream of stories coursing through my imagination! But I want to use my time and talents wisely, so I pray for wisdom in knowing which ones to pursue and which ones to put down. What needs to be included in a novel, and how much of my personal story to share elsewhere.
- READING— you all know I’m a fiction fan and adore reading for pleasure, but this year I want to weave more memoirs into the mix. Learn from the struggles and successes and loves and lives of others.
- LISTENING— there are times when we need to simply sit and hear someone share their experience. Feed them cake and listen to their story! Make space for them. Make time for them. It’s something I certainly need to work on…
- LIVING out my own story— fully and with integrity, in the most loving way possible, whatever that looks like. Showing others that God is the Author of my life and that I trust Him in all circumstances. Stretching and growing in every chapter.
“Like an open book, you watched me grow from conception to birth;
all the stages of my life were spread out before you,
The days of my life all prepared
before I’d even lived one day.” Psalm 139:16
Friend, we each have a unique story to be shared or used as a catalyst for empathy and understanding. We can all take time to listen to the story of others, to be attentive and compassionate and loving. (How I wish I’d listened more to those of my grandparents!) And through the meandering chapters of our very own life story, we can trust the Author to be faithful always.
“When life spins a bit wild—the best thing to do is fall wildly in love with the Author of Life, who is the author of your Life, and let Him write you a love story, your love story.” Ann Voskamp
I pray that God will give me courage and kindness in my written story, in my spoken story, and in my lived-out story this year and for years to come…
“Don’t forget – no one else sees the world the way you do, so no one else can tell the stories that you have to tell.” Charles de Lint
Do you have “one word” for 2023? We would love to hear in the comments below. ⬇︎
🎉 Happy New Year, one and all!
P.S. My latest STORY is a thrilling, hope-filled, heartwarming read—and I’m fairly sure it’s totally acceptable to still be reading about Christmas when there’s snow on the ground! � | [

Where is the market development prospect of polyester yarn?
With the development of the textile industry, textile technology continues to improve. Today, Tianzhu Textile introduces you to polyester yarn. The so-called polyester yarn is a kind of raw material for weaving.
The environmental impact of production activities. Polyester yarn is a kind of synthetic fiber, the scientific name of polyethylene terephthalate. Its main advantage is that it hardly absorbs moisture. The cloth woven from it is easy to clean and dry quickly. It is firm and hard to rise. wrinkle.
With the continuous rapid updating of modern equipment, in order to produce different cotton yarns that meet people's requirements, different processing procedures have been adopted, and different degrees of adjustment have been made in the process, such as spinning cotton yarn and polyester-cotton blended yarn. Due to the different raw materials used, the different physical properties of the various raw materials and the quality requirements of the products to be produced are also different, and different production processes are required for processing. The device can merge some of these processes together, making the actual observations less work that was previously necessary. Through the continuous innovation of people in textile technology, the quality of the products produced is more and more reassuring. | [

Pump body: including suction chamber and the pressure chamber.
Suction chamber: its function is to allow the liquid to flow evenly into the impeller.
Pressure chamber: its function is to collect liquid and send it to a lower impeller or guide discharge pipe. At the same time, reduce the velocity of the liquid, so that the kinetic energy becomes pressure energy. The pressure chamber has two forms: volute and guide wheel. The volute is named for the spiral shape of the runner. The liquid flows along the spiral line. With the increase of the flow section, the velocity decreases and the kinetic energy becomes pressure energy.The guide wheel is commonly used in the segmented multistage pump. In order to make the structure simple and compact, the guide wheel is used to transform the energy between the primary impeller and the secondary impeller, and the liquid flows along the flow path specified by the guide wheel to the inlet of the secondary impeller.
Impeller: it is the only element in the centrifugal pump to transfer energy to the liquid. The pump allows the mechanical energy to become the pressure of the liquid to increase the pressure of the liquid. The impeller is fixed on the shaft with the key, and the shaft is rotated by the original motive, passing the energy of the original motive to the liquid through the blade. According to the liquid flow impeller channel classification, it can be divided into single suction impeller (have an entry in the side of the impeller) and double suction impeller (liquid from symmetrically on both sides of the impeller flow in the impeller passage). According to the main flow direction of the liquid relative to the axis of rotation, the impeller can be divided into radial flow impeller, axial flow impeller and mixed flow impeller. According to the structure of impeller, it can be divided into the closed impeller, open impeller and semi-open impeller. The closed impeller consists of a number of blades and the wheel cover and wheel disk on both sides. The space between two adjacent blades and wheel cover and wheel disk is the flow path of the liquid. Open impeller only has the blade, without wheel cover and wheel; Half open impeller only is a wheel on one side of the blade.
Shaft: it is an important part of the transmission of mechanical energy. The torque of the original motive is transmitted to the impeller through it. The pump shaft is the main part of the pump rotor, the shaft is equipped with the impeller, axle sleeve, balance plate and other parts. The pump shaft is supported by both ends of the bearings, which is high-speed rotary in the pump. Therefore, the pump shaft should be capable of bearing capacity, abrasion resistance and corrosion resistance. The material of the pump shaft is usually made of carbon steel or alloy steel.
The seal ring is a sealing device installed between the rotating impeller and the stationary pump case (a combination of middle and guide leaves). Its function is to increase the resistance of liquid flow between high and low-pressure cavity in the pump by controlling the gap between them and reduce leakage.
Shaft sleeve: the shaft sleeve is used to protect the pump shaft from corrosion and wear. If necessary, the axle sleeve can be replaced.
Shaft seal: the stuffing box between pump shaft and front and rear cover is referred to as shaft seal, mainly preventing liquid leakage and air entering the pump, so as to seal and prevent the pump from cavitation caused by air intake. There are three types of shaft seals: rubber seal with the skeleton, packing seal and mechanical seal. | [

In one day, VicPD issued 50 tickets to distracted drivers with a $543 price tag — or the option to take a three-hour class and not pay up.
It’s the second time the VicPD and Restorative Justice Victoria have teamed up to educate first offenders about the dangers of looking at your phone while behind the wheel. Usually, a fine and penalty points on the driver’s licence is the consequence of being pulled over for distracted driving, but the voluntary course aims to have a longer impact.
“The goal is to change people’s behaviour,” said Gillian Lindquist, the executive director of Restorative Justice Victoria. “See it more as not just getting a fine, but like this is dangerous behaviour that could really change someone’s life, could end somebody’s life.”
We gave out 50 tickets yesterday for distracted driving. This was part of a pilot project with @RestorativeYYJ
— VicPD Traffic (@vicpdtraffic) October 11, 2018
At last count, 20 of the 50 drivers issued tickets on Oct. 10 have signed up for the program, but there’s still time for the rest to register. The first time the pilot project took place 32 of 34 drivers took the course.
The two course leaders include a woman whose daughter was hit by a distracted driver, and now lives with chronic pain and PTSD. The other is a retired fire department captain, who shares his experience responding to crash scenes.
Lindquist said drivers will learn dangerous driving statistics such as how far a vehicle can travel while they’re distracted, exercises to demonstrate how multi-tasking behind the wheel doesn’t work and how peripheral vision is impacted. Then they accept the responsibility for their actions and sign a pledge not to drive with a hand-held electronic device again.
“It really does impact people at a deeper level,” she said. “The goal isn’t to bring them in there and make them feel terrible and shame them about what they’ve done, but to create an environment where they can learn something and leave feeling motivated to change their behaviour. Hopefully, they’ll encourage the people around them, friends and family to do the same.” | [

[PAST EVENT] Physics Colloquium - Dr. Paul Black
Access & Features
- Open to the public
Dr. Paul Black, Wake Forest University, Title: Innovations in Surface Guidance Techniques for Radiotherapy Applications
About half of all cancer patients receive radiation therapy, which is delivered in a prescribed number of fractionated doses. As such, radiation therapy delivery requires accurate and repeatable patient positioning, ideally to sub-millimeter accuracy, for each fraction. This need for reproducible, consistent patient positioning becomes even more important as the plan complexity or the dose per fraction increases. Conventionally, patient positioning is verified before radiation delivery, but not actively monitored for changes during treatment. Positioning verification performed in real-time, concurrent with treatment, stands to improve on this methodology. Recently, groups have been working towards establishing methods for real-time verification of radiation treatment delivery. The two techniques presented use optical light to track patient positioning and verify radiation delivery.
When particles of sufficient energy travel through human tissue, light emission, known as Cherenkov radiation, is observable on the irradiated patient skin. This has been shown to correlate with ionizing radiation dose delivery in solid tissue, allowing real-time treatment verification. Cherenkov light images were acquired during radiation delivery to standard and anthropomorphic phantoms. Two clinical scenarios were tested: 1) observation of field overlaps or gaps in matched radiation fields and 2) patient positioning shifts during modulated dose delivery. The second technique investigated is Optical Surface Guidance (OSG), in which an optical light field is projected onto the patient surface and monitored using a multi-angle camera system. This technology can reliably monitor the patient surface in real-time, but cannot visualize radiation dose.
The detectability limit for determining radiation field placement and phantom position was investigated. For matched radiation fields, measurements of Cherenkov images agreed with known field separations. Detection of sub-millimeter positioning shifts was also demonstrated. For Cherenkov imaging, the major confounding factors were radiation angle of incidence, beam energy, and radiation type. For the OSG investigation, we verified sub-millimeter accuracy of the system, including rotational position changes. The combination of Cherenkov detection and OSG can be used in the development and refinement of a real-time patient and radiation delivery monitoring technique for clinical radiation dose delivery. | [

A good reason to become a cop in Italy
Traffic police patrolling a highway in southern Italy have a new employee benefit, driving the force's first Lamborghini Gallardo.
The gift from Lamborghini, in blue and white and marked with the word "Polizia", has a top speed of 192mph. It should have the edge in any chase on the Salerno-Reggio Calabria motorway. However, the car is just as likely to be used for emergency deliveries such as human organs for transplant.
The sleek two-seater, topped with a flashing blue light, has a six-speed tranny and a 500-horsepower engine designed to make the Lambo go from zero to 60mph in four seconds.
Donated by the Lamborghini factory in Bologna, its list price is $165,000, making it unlikely that the Italian police force will actually buy any. (info from the BBC) | [

Atlanta is a great place to live! Never was it more evident than when the winter weather hit this week … the snow storm that was supposed to “miss” Atlanta and fall south of the city, managed to hit us “head on!” Although it dropped less than three inches of snow, icy roads became the issue. In a city that rarely gets snow and has closed schools for the slightest threat of snow, we weren’t prepared for where the storm hit. We were supposed to get a “dusting” of snow, when in fact, we got a lot more!
I was on my way to show a home on Tuesday at 1 pm. After just a mile the road was so bad and slippery, I had to turn around immediately and cancel the appointment. That client’s mom had driven up from the next town over to view the home with them, and she was not able to return for two days!
As soon as it started to snow driving became unmanageable. There were dangerous, icy roads everywhere! Snow turned to ice on virtually all of our roadways creating a massive traffic jam, the likes of which most of us had never seen. It was a nightmare! One man walked 8 miles to his children’s school and ended up spending the night with the children and teachers at the school.
As school buses headed out loaded with children, many could go no further and had to turn back. Some ended up in a ditch or ran into other vehicles. Parents spent hours and hours picking up children who were 10 minutes away. Other parents couldn’t get home from work. Students were forced to spend the night at their schools.
Employers and employees everywhere left work in anticipation of the storm, but it was too late. Trucks and cars became stuck on ramps entering and exiting the freeways. People ran into each other while attempting to maneuver on sheets of ice. There were approximately 800 car accidents!
A baby was born in the car as driving became impossible! People were trapped in their cars overnight, stuck in gridlock with no food and water, and with children in their cars. It was a standstill on freeways and hundreds of cars were left by the side of the roads. Temperatures dipped into the single digits. Many people had 6 hour, 10 hour and even 21 hour commutes to go short distances to their homes.
In the midst of this awful scene, neighbors helped neighbors. Major grocery stores opened their doors to people who were stranded and allowed them to sleep in the aisles. Fire departments and restaurants opened their doors and made warm meals for those who were stranded. Teachers stayed overnight in schools with students, even with families of their own at home. People who lived close to the gridlocked traffic walked up and down offering food and water to stranded motorists.
People helped each other and made the best of the situation. Strangers helped strangers and friends helped both friends and strangers.
We all got through it. When the going got tough this week Atlanta showed the world what it is like to “love thy neighbor.” The experience made us all grateful. We are so very grateful to live in a place like Atlanta, where hospitality and kindness reigns! | [

Tomorrow, December 14th, at the Trevi cinema, is the day of the RdC Awards.
Special event: Carlo Verdone commemorates Sergio Leone. The screening of Sad Hill Unearthed will follow, a documentary on the footsteps of The good, the bad and the ugly
On December 14th, 2018, at 8.30 pm, the Awards ceremony of the Tertio Millennio Film Fest, organised by Fondazione Ente dello Spettacolo, will take place at the Trevi cinema. During the gala evening presented by Fabio Falzone, film journalist and critic for TV 2000, the 2018 RdC Awards (the awards of the Rivista del Cinematografo) will be assigned to the protagonists of the world of cinema, television and culture, along with the Toni Bertorelli Controluce Award, established in 2017 in his memory. It will be assigned to the actor and actress whose performance was particularly significant during the last year, and in some way similar to Toni Bertorelli’s style, that is, out of the usual aesthetic and acting canons. Moreover, the First Work Award – Sono arrivato prima! will be given to the best debut of the year according to the readers of the Rivista del Cinematografo and Cinematografo.it. The winners of the contest for short films “Noi ci siamo – Giovani, voglia di partecipazione e ricercar di senso” will also be announced. Surprisingly, there will be a Special Tertio Millennio Award.
The fourth day of the Festival still holds many surprises for the public, from the screening of the last film in competition Heaven Without People, directed by Lucien Bourjeily, to the Special Event with Carlo Verdone, who will commemorate Sergio Leone with the images of Sad Hill Unearthed, by Guillermo de Oliveira.
Here follows the schedule of Friday, December 14th, 2018.
- 3.00 pm Heaven Without People(90′) directed by Lucien Bourjeily, and meeting with the film director – Film in competition.
Josephine, matriarch of a sprawling family, is happy because for the first time in two years managed to gather everyone together for the Easter lunch. While everyone enjoys the meal together, an accident occurs and awakens all the latent tensions between the different members of the family, thus gradually unleashing chaos.
- 5.00 pm Sad Hill Unearthed(88′) directed by Guillermo de Oliveira – Carlo Verdone commemorates Sergio Leone. Special event.
October 2015, a group of fans of the film The good, the bad and the ugly (1966), directed by Sergio Leone, went to visit the location of the final scene of the film in Burgos (Spain). The site, covered by vegetation, remained completely abandoned for 49 years until the group started an initiative to bring the iconic cemetery of “Sad Hill” back to light.
- 8.30 pm RdC Awards (by invitation only) – Presented by TV 2000 journalist Fabio Falzone
The following awards will be assigned:
- Toni Bertorelli “Controluce” Award
- Navicella Cinema Italiano Award
- Premio Navicella TV Award
- 2018 Revelation Award
- Soundtrack Award
- Best vocal performance Award
- Diego Fabbri Award to the best film book
- Special Tertio Millennio Award for Communication

Today's Earth, with atmosphere, liquid surface water and other life-friendly conditions, only started to develop after the impact or impacts that formed the moon, so if that occurred late then life could only have developed late as well, she added.
"Our age places the impact(s) really early, which allow an hospitable Earth to develop much earlier as well," Barboni said.
The finding dovetails with related research showing early Earth was habitable earlier than previously thought, with the potential for life as far back as 4.1 billion years ago.
Having a moon-forming impact or impacts 4.3 billion years ago would leave relatively little time for life to evolve.
"At 4.51 billion years, you have much more time to transform the Earth from hellish to nice," Barboni said. "The age of the moon is indeed critical."
RELATED: Moon-Forming Earth Impact was a Direct Hit
To determine the moon's age, Barboni and colleagues used a new technique to examine eight zircon fragments left over from a previous study. Their uranium-lead dating method, used for the first time on lunar samples, corrects for cosmic ray exposure. The researchers also analyzed isotopes of the element hafnium, a silvery grey metal. | [

With the launch of events such as period parties, we’re welcoming girls into womanhood at an exceptionally rapid pace.
But what may seem like a celebration to most, has become a daunting conversation for others. Especially since girls are reaching puberty at earlier ages, with no real reason as to why.
According to an article at Jezebel, African American girls are 23% more likely to show signs of early development such as breast growth, by the age of seven, followed by 15% of Hispanic girls, 10% percent of Caucasian girls, and 2% of Asian girls.
With no connections for this sudden change, everything including stress, environment, and obesity are to blame.
For families who cannot provide any educational or emotional support for their children, this causes a sense of stress in many family homes who financially cannot support that their children that may need extra attention while journeying into adulthood.
Have you or your loved ones had to deal with a child who’s blossomed early? What did you do about it? | [

Symposium: The Conservative Mind at 60
In the final chapter of his final book, The Sword of Imagination, Russell Kirk writes that during his 75 years, filled with more honors and blessings than the most celebrated among us experience, he had sought three ends:
- To defend the Permanent Things against a strong often nihilist tide, seeking to “conserve a patrimony of order, justice, and freedom; a tolerable moral order;and an inheritance of culture.”
- To lead “a life of decent independence” enabling him to utter the truth and make his voice heard amidst the cacophony of modern life.
- To “marry for love and to rear children who would come to know that the service of God is perfect freedom.”
He expresses gratitude that his three wishes had been granted and that he had been given the strength to wield “his sword of imagination” against the follies of “the blighted twentieth century.”
Dr. Kirk—he earned the title at the University of St. Andrews—wrote those words some 40 years after he published his first and most enduring work, The Conservative Mind, without which there would be no modern American conservative movement. For those who would question that, let us consider the intellectual state of affairs in America in the early fifties.
In his introduction to The Liberal Imagination—published in 1950—the liberal critic Lionel Trilling wrote that “liberalism is not only the dominant but even the sole intellectual tradition” in America. The conservative impulse, he said, was not thoughtful at all but made up of at best “irritable mental gestures which seem to resemble ideas.”
Trilling was not alone in his dismissal of conservatism. In The Liberal Tradition in America, Louis Hartz explained that by conservatism what was really meant was European feudalism, something altogether foreign to the American experience. In Conservatism in America, Clinton Rossiter concluded that because America was “a progressive country with a liberal tradition,” conservatism was simply “irrelevant.”
Even William F. Buckley Jr. seemed to accept the liberal consensus, stating in his 1951 best-selling book God and Man at Yale that he was not a conservative but an “individualist.” He went so far in his rejectionof the word “conservative” as to become the first president of the Intercollegiate Society of Individualists.
Trilling, Hartz, and Rossiter cannot be blamed, my colleague Ed Feulner has pointed out, for their misunderstanding of conservatism. At the time there was only a small coterie of disparate conservative writers and thinkers whose philosophical differences seemed to far outweigh their similarities.
The classical liberal F. A. Hayek provided a powerful critique of economic planning in The Road to Serfdom but felt obliged to write an often-quoted essay “Why I Am Not a Conservative” in order to separate himself from conservatism. The one-time Soviet spy Whittaker Chambers (much admired by Bill Buckley) insisted he was not a conservative but a man of the Right.
The conservative movement was a movement without a name until Russell Kirk published The Conservative Mind that permanently changed the public perception of conservatism. The book stunned complacent liberals who had concluded that conservatism could express itself only in “irritable mental gestures,” and it brought up short gloomy conservatives like Chambers, who conceded he had joined the losing side.
Forty-seven of the first fifty reviews of the work in publications ranging from the New York Times and Time to the Saturday Review and the Yale Review were laudatory. Bill Buckley was so swayed by the near universal acceptance of Kirk’s Mind that in the first issue of his new magazine—launched some two years later—he declared that National Review would be “a vigorous and incorruptible journal of conservative opinion” [emphasis added].
The social scientist Robert Nisbet wrote Kirk that with one book, he had done the impossible—broken “the cake of intellectual opposition to the conservative tradition in the United States.” The conservative historian George Nash said that whereas other conservatives had constructed ”genealogies of evil men and pernicious thoughts, here, at long last, was a genealogy of good men and valuable thoughts.”
Throughout his life, Russell Kirk wrote about good men, like Edmund Burke and T. S. Eliot, and defended time-tested ideas like “a divine intent rules society as well as conscience,” and “change and reform are not identical”—society must alter slowly.
When young or old, lauded or ignored, Russell Kirk was proud to be a conservative, appreciative of what it stood for—tradition and custom—and what it rejected—ideology and hubris. In The Conservative Mind, he presented not the cruel caricature of a conservative—dull, boorish, bigoted and avaricious—but the portrait of the true conservative: a “resolute and strong- | [

Fluor Corporation has announced that NuScale Power (NuScale), in which Fluor is the majority investor, has received notice that its design certification application has been accepted for review by the U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC). By accepting the completed application for review, the NRC confirms that NuScale’s submission addresses all NRC requirements and contains sufficient technical information to conduct the review. NuScale’s small modular nuclear reactor (SMR) commercial power plant technology can deliver the energy diversity needed to power unique energy needs while also providing a safe, flexible, and carbon-free power generation solution.
NuScale’s small modular reactors include scalable plants, and the facility output can be incrementally increased depending upon the demand. The technology’s operational flexibility can also be integrated with other carbon-free renewable energy sources like wind and solar to provide consistent power and to help enable stable grid performance.
NuScale marked a major milestone on December 31, 2016, when the company asked the NRC to approve its SMR design, the first submitted in the United States. | [

The degeneration of Ag coatings on the polished surfaces of side-polished fibers (SPFs) with different surface topographies, and its inhibition by Au plating were studied by the time-dependent red shift of the resonance wavelength of SPF surface plasmon resonance (SPR) sensors. The surface topography determines the Ag-particle distribution, and affects the optical performance. The resonance wavelength of rough and smooth samples demonstrates a red shift over time. However, the service lifetime of an Ag-SPR sensor with a rough surface is less than 48 h because an abundance of coating flakes destroys the integrity of the Ag coating, and accelerates oxidation. Degeneration does not decrease its sensitivity. The smooth surface retards the degeneration rate. A thin Au plating decreases the resonance bandwidth for the rough surface, and provides a resonance wavelength near the middle of the ideal range between 533 and 620 nm. The position of the resonance wavelength can be adjusted by changing the proportions of Ag and Au in the compound coating. The Au plating retards the rate of Ag degeneration, where the maximum degeneration rate of a pure Ag coating is 3.5 times greater that of an Ag-Au compound coating between 96 and 192 h.

The amusing distorting mirrors in the adventure park will make the whole family laugh. The mirrors transform the own image into extremely big, thin or warped body shapes. In another mirror, guests can see themselves double, triple, quadruple, distorted and from different perspectives.
Distorting mirrors are deformed mirrors. Multiple distortions are caused by corrugated mirror surfaces. The partially bizarre effects had been previously used in cabinets of curiosities and carnivals to amuse the viewers. Here, at the adventure park in the Eifel, it makes for a welcome change for the whole family. | [

Year of study: 2019
Investor: Správa železnic
Place: Prague – Veleslavín Railway Station
Award: 2nd place in the architectural competition
Modernization of a new track Prague Veleslavín – Václav Havel Airport is an important and long-missing connection between the capital city of the Czech republic and the rest of the world. The essence of the connection itself is the main idea of our proposal, on the level of urbanism, architecture and detail.
On the level of urbanism, the railway station is a part of a new linear park of a metropolitan significance, which will replace the existing track to the centre of Prague after the underground track is built. This new green line will provide attractive connection of several recreation areas (Divoká Šárka, Hvězda, Prague castle, Letná, Stromovka).
On the level of architecture, the roof of the station rises above the surrounding terrain. The station is a pavilion in the green park and its side windows visually connect the interior and the exterior. For this purpose, lightweight roof is hovering over the platforms of the underground station and its massive structures. There is a gap of light, a space between these different structures, which brings exterior life and daylight into the station. The roof console naturally shields the platform from the bright sun in the summer months and creates a shelter in the parterre. The seamless shining material of the composite roof construction enhances the impression of levitating matter above the station, while its physical properties allow it to sit on subtle pillars that also form the exterior facade of the station. The way of roofing the above-ground platform and entrances to the station corresponds with the material of the station and its architectural concept and it makes the contrast of the new structures with the existing historical building of the station. The roofs of the station and its entrances together create the impression of pavilions in the park.
This park is designed as a simple public space with tall trees for residents of Prague 6, which is connected to a parterre of new buildings (restaurant, cafe, community centre, gallery, etc.). The passers-by or passing cyclists can also stop there. The theme of the park is focused on maximum utilization of the rainwater. In principle, we propose a linear polder over the entire length of the park, with the plants that can withstand occasional flooding. The water retain in the park as long as possible, where it gradually seeps in and serves as a watering for the surrounding vegetation.
Smaller public spaces are located in the park. These public spaces do not appear empty even with less occupancy. On the other hand, their interconnection and the possibility of using the surrounding green areas creates enough space for larger events (markets, public open-air lectures, concerts). | [

Japan restarted its controversial "fast-breeder" nuclear reactor on Thursday, more than 14 years after suspending operations following an accident, the Japan Atomic Energy Agency said.
Workers gather to restart a fast-breeder nuclear reactor at central control room in the northern fishing town of Tsuruga Thursday, May 6, 2010. (AFP Photo)
Operators reactivated the prototype reactor Monju, 350 kilometres (220 miles) west of Tokyo, at 10:36 am (0136 GMT), the agency said, showing a broadcast of the relaunch to media in the capital.
The facility was shut down in 1995, less than two years after it had started generating power, following a sodium coolant leak and a fire which the operator initially sought to hide from the public.
In its cover-up, the agency released altered video footage of the fire in the facility.
Delays in repairs, strong public opposition and legal challenges long delayed Monju's resumption until the government gave the green light this year.
Unlike regular light-water reactors that run on uranium, fast-breeders use a mix of plutonium and uranium, including waste from conventional reactors, and generate or "breed" more plutonium than they consume.
Major economies initially rushed to develop the "dream reactors", but technical problems, along with fears over the proliferation of weapons-grade plutonium, have led Western nations to withdraw from the projects. | [

SpaceX's Starship will be ready for 1st orbital flight in July, Elon Musk says
"Starship will be ready to fly next month. I was in the high bay & mega bay late last night reviewing progress," the billionaire entrepreneur said via Twitter today (June 14).
"We will have a second Starship stack ready to fly in August and then monthly thereafter," Musk added in another tweet.
Hardware readiness won't guarantee a July Starship flight, however; SpaceX still needs to secure a launch license from the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). And getting one won't necessarily be easy;

indian point radioactive leak
According to media reports Monday, radioactive material has leaked into the groundwater below a nuclear power plant north of New York City, prompting a state investigation and condemnation from governor Andrew Cuomo.
Cuomo ordered an investigation into “alarming levels of radioactivity” found at three monitoring wells at the Indian Point energy center in Buchanan, New York, about 40 miles north of Manhattan.
Cuomo’s office released a statement that emphasized that the leak didn’t post a threat to the public:
Our first concern is for the health and safety of the residents close to the facility and ensuring the groundwater leak does not pose a threat.
This latest failure at Indian Point is unacceptable and I have directed Department of Environmental Conservation Acting Commissioner Basil Seggos and Department of Health Commissioner Howard Zucker to fully investigate this incident and employ all available measures, including working with Nuclear Regulatory Commission, to determine the extent of the release, its likely duration, cause and potential impacts to the environment and public health.
Entergy also issued a statement, downplaying any risk to the public, and noted that they had reported the leak to authorities:
While elevated tritium in the ground onsite is not in accordance with our standards, there is no health or safety consequence to the public, and releases are more than a thousand times below federal permissible limits. The tritium did not affect any source of drinking water onsite or offsite.
While the effect of these elevated values is less than one-tenth of one percent of federal reporting guidelines, Entergy made voluntary notification to the NRC, state agencies and key stakeholders.
According to reports, one location radioactivity levels rose nearly 65,000%, from 12,300 picocuries per liter to over 8,000,000 picocuries per liter. The Environmental Protection Agency’s maximum contaminant level for tritium in drinking water is 20,000 picocuries per liter, though Entergy, the company that owns the plant, emphasized that only groundwater, and not drinking water, were contaminated.
The plant supplies roughly 30% of the electricity consumed by New York City. Indian Point had three emergency shutdowns in December, prompting the governor’s office to launch, and then expand, an inquiry into operations and safety standards at the facility.
There have been many tritium leaks at the plant in recent years, though Saturday’s leak appears to be the most serious so far. Public service commission chair Audrey Zibelman faces a deadline for the results of the pre-existing investigation by President’s Day, 15 February.
“This latest failure at Indian Point is unacceptable,” Cuomo said in a statement. “This is not the first such release of radioactive water at Indian Point,” he said, adding: “this failure continues to demonstrate that Indian Point cannot continue to operate in a manner that is protective of public health and the environment.”
Tritium is a radioactive hydrogen isotope that cannot penetrate the skin; however, it is considered a health risk for illnesses, including cancer.
The governor’s office did not immediately respond to request for further comment on the beginning of the leak and its duration. | [

A CIVIL engineering firm secured a £9million waste management deal.
Ruthin-based Jones Bros opened a new based in Sutton Courtenay, near Abingdon in Oxfordshire, after being awarded the three-year contract by Waste Recycling Group (WRG).
Under the regional framework, the Denbighshire company will carry out engineering work at eight WRG landfill sites across the south of England including Dix Pit in Stanton Harcourt, near Oxford, and Sutton Courtenay.
The firm is to construct new landfill containment cells and carry out earthworks. Artificially engineered geological barriers will be installed at the sites, along with synthetic artificial sealing liners and drainage systems.
Between 30 and 40 Jones Bros operatives will be working on the WRG sites in the
region at any one time.
Some 1,000,000 cubic tonnes of earth will be excavated during the first year alone.
Stuart Mitchell, senior engineering manager at WRG, said: “Jones Bros was awarded the framework contract following a highly competitive tendering process.”
“They have built a reputation with us based on quality, honesty and a proven track record.
“Their non-adversarial yet proactive approach is the main reason we are looking forward to continuing the close working relationship we have with them.”
In total 270 people are currently employed by Jones Bros, which is working on around 20 projects around the UK. Turnover increased by almost a quarter to £46m last year.
During 2010, the company opened regional offices in Swansea and Linlithgow, Scotland.
The latest base in Oxfordshire was established as a focal point for handling the WRG contract and represents Jones Bros’ latest regional expansion.
Jones Bros contracts manager Geraint Thomas, who will be based in Sutton Courtenay as manager of the WRG framework contract, said: “We have more than 20 years’ experience in landfill cell construction, and our record speaks for itself.
“This is the second regional framework contract awarded by WRG to Jones
Bros. The first was in Yorkshire in 2009. We are very pleased to be working for them again.” | [

The team matched me up with the Hi Barn model, and I couldn't be happier. It has an abundance of storage space thanks to the open layout, and the design is perfect on my property.
My new Workshop shed was an ideal option for me. It's perfect for keeping all my outdoor supplies in one place, and it makes a really convenient place for craft projects too.

Barrington, town (township), Bristol county, eastern Rhode Island, U.S. The town lies on the eastern shore of Narragansett Bay just southeast of East Providence and occupies two peninsulas separated by the Barrington River. As early as 1632, Plymouth settlers had established a trading post in the area on Sowams, then the fishing and hunting grounds of Wampanoag Indians. The first European settlement was made by John Myles, a Baptist clergyman, and his followers. In 1667 Myles's settlement, including Sowams, was incorporated as Swansea. The area became caught up in the Indian uprising called King Philip's War (1675 - 76). Swansea was incorporated in 1717 as the town of Barrington (named for John Shute, 1st Viscount Barrington, an English lawyer who advocated religious freedom) by the General Court of Massachusetts Bay colony. In 1746 - 47 Barrington was transferred to the colony of Rhode Island, forming a part of the town of Warren. In 1770 the western part of Warren was separated and incorporated as Barrington. Barrington (including the village of West Barrington) is mainly residential. Area 8 square miles (22 square km). Pop. (2000) 15, 819; (2010) 16, 310.
5 Things to Know Before Buying a Shed
You know you want a shed. But, before you start shopping for shed materials, make sure you've done your homework. If you know the answers to these quick tips you'll be able to pick a shed that best meets your needs and adheres to proper codes in your area.
1. Shed Covenants and Permits
Check the restrictions or covenants your neighborhood has for building sheds. For instance, many cities and neighborhoods will dictate the specific distance from a property line or fence line that a shed must be built. This may determine what type and size of shed you can build. Also, do you need to submit any architectural forms to your neighborhood HOA or acquire a building permit from your city?
2. Shed Purpose
Think about how you are going to use your shed to help determine what size of shed and features will work best. Are you building a shed for a workshop or gardening where you plan to spend a lot of time in the shed? If you're going to spend a lot of time inside, be sure to think about lighting, ventilation, and roof height needs. Many sheds have extra features like windows that open and full-length roof skylights.
Or, is it simply for storage? If it's for storage, what kind of storage? Large lawn equipment and hanging tools? Outdoor toys, bikes, or pool equipment? Or extra 'attic' type items like clothes and holiday items that are stored in bulky containers | [

Sounds like a typical day at a dog park. Sorry, it's just that this stuff happens all the time at dog parks which is why I avoid them. In this case you had two owners that were not neglectful and watching and a dog still got hurt. Your dog is old enough that she will not get screwed up in any way from this, she is just a dominant female. When she comes across other dominant females she needs to be controlled (on leash). Please make sure you do not get her around young females, as she will do some damage there. | [
