As a man above 20 years, you should probably take time to get enough education about prostate cancer, know who is at risk of the condition, the common causes, symptoms, early signs and most importantly, the treatments available. This is because prostate cancer is one singular common disease of the male gender. Statistics says one out of every nine males have prostate cancer with over average at the risk of having. As a matter of fact, having a prostate gland means you can have prostate cancer. Prostate cancer is one of the easiest cancer to treat provided detected early and ironically, it is one of the deadliest and difficult at the late or advanced stage. Your best bet is to detect early when treatment is still very feasible. Detecting symptoms early can be quite problematic and this is why regular screening is always recommended. You may have it for months and not feel any symptoms, however as it grows and spreads in the body, certain symptoms starts manifesting. Sufferer of the cancer can experience difficulty starting and maintaining urination, a frequent urge to urinate especially at night, blood in the urine or semen, extremely painful urination, pain on ejaculation, difficulty getting or maintaining an erection, pain or discomfort when sitting if the prostate is enlarged. As the condition aggravates, very severe symptoms starts manifesting. They may include: bone fracture or bone pain; in the hips, thighs, or shoulders, edema or swelling in the legs or feet, weight loss, tiredness, changes in bowel habits and so on Causes Of Prostate cancer Having known the signs of prostate cancer, we should adequately discuss the set of people who are at risk of the disease and the likely causes. Like I mentioned earlier, every normal man has a prostate provided a surgical procedure hasn’t been conducted. This means that all men can have prostrate cancer, however, some are more likely than others. Conditions that may promote susceptibility may include: Age: The risk of prostate cancer increases with age. Men are more vulnerable about age 40 and above. Genetic or Hereditary factors: Family history could be evidence of genetic susceptibility to prostate cancer. People who have histories of family members who had the disease should be more careful of the cancer. Race: Research has shown that blacks are at greater risk of prostate cancer than whites and Asian races. Asides these, there are other general lifestyle causes of prostate cancer such as: diet, obesity, smoking, exposure to harmful chemicals such as the herbicides, inflammation of the prostate, sexually transmitted infections, vasectomy, exposure to radiation and so on. Treatment Of Prostate Cancer This cancer is not a death sentence and in comparison to other kinds of cancer, victims have a better shot at recovery. To improve one’s chances of recovery, early detection is important and this is why it is necessary for one to undergo screening especially if you fall under the category of people who are at greater risk. At the early stage, simple treatment could cure the condition. In some cases, waiting could be recommended as the body can restore back. However at growing stages, surgical removal of the prostate through prostatectomy could be employed. More severe treatments may include radiotherapy and chemotherapy which have very adverse effects, which may even be worse than the cancer itself. Water Leaf Therapy There is a good news in natural and herbal therapy as a very common plant has been researched to be effective as both a prophylactic and anaphylatic in prostate cancer treatment. This means that it can prevent you from coming down with prostate cancer and can also help treat the condition. Water leaf is a common vegetable or weed we find growing in the wild around us. Many know this plant as a vegetable but only few are familiar with its medicinal properties. After going through this, you’ll learn how to harness this plant in treatment of prostate issues. How To Use Water Leaf To Treat Prostate Cancer This is a simple procedure you should follow religiously for improvement and proper treatment. Pluck enough water leaf and wash clean to remove all dirt. Blend the leaves to a paste and add milk. Drink this before meal every day for treatment. You can add honey to taste if you desire.

Hospitals are places of healing and refuge. In today’s world, as the pace of modern medicine continuously accelerates, a hospital must consider other factors in addition to expert staffing and state-of-the-art tools. Hospitals and healthcare settings should pay particular attention to the complex environment surrounding their patients within their care. Indeed, a growing body of research finds that a patient’s physical environment is instrumental in the overall healing process. A hospital’s environment affects patient stress, patient and staff safety, staff effectiveness, and quality of care.

Failure Analysis of High Frequency Quenching Machine Tool Common fault analysis and elimination of primary and secondary short circuits of high frequency quenching machine tool transformers: (1) Cause analysis of high frequency quenching machine tools and inductive load circuits. When such a fault occurs, there is a fire between the primary and secondary of the transformer, and in severe cases, water leakage occurs in the primary or secondary. Since the short-circuit points appear in different parts of the primary and secondary, once the main contactor is turned on, the generator working curve may appear in different inductive curve positions, so the response of the instrument is different, but basically G is greatly reduced, /> Cos Xu is perceptual, falling, and both 1GL and 1GJ2 act. (2) Fault diagnosis of high frequency quenching machine tools The primary or secondary water supply of the transformer is not smooth or blocked, which causes the winding to heat up, the primary insulation breaks down, and the primary and secondary short circuits are formed. This kind of fault is easy to find from the scorched winding or the leaking point, and then it can be judged by measuring the electric resistance of the light or the multimeter.

Movie “Udta Punjab” filled with drug drama released on Friday with single court-ordered cut after the producers appealed against some 89-odd edits demanded by the Censor Board, including the deleting of all references to Punjab. The movie has been directed by Abhishek Chaubey and it stars Shahid Kapoor as an addicted rocker, Alia Bhatt as a Bihari migrant, Kareena Kapoor as a doctor and Diljit Dosanjh as a cop. Ekta Kapoor's Balaji Productions and Phantom Films are its co-producers. On Wednesday, a leaked copy of the film was released online. Udta Punjab is a cracker of a title, and the way it opens tells us that it will go on the way it means to: with rolled-up sleeves ready for action, with characters who look as if they belong to Punjab, and speak the lingo right (mostly). Most importantly, it reveals a willingness to go over to the dark side and show what drugs can do. They can ruin. They can kill. They can wish you were not alive. Udta Punjab is not a perfect film, it has flaws. But this is the kind of film that has something to say, and it says it with both flair and conviction. The movie showcased the reality of drugs. Tommy Singh (Shahid Kapoor) is an accidental rock star and a full-time user. He rhymes coke and cock, making a song out of it, and the high-on-the-white-stuff youngsters at his raves love it. He loves it too, till the one day all the jollies — the money, the endless supply of the ‘chitta’ powder, the adulation — curdle. And his eyes light upon a battered-yet-not-beaten Bihari labourer (Alia Bhatt), who has become an unwitting victim in this vicious game, and he stutters, stops and starts to see. Sartaj Singh (Diljit Dosanjh) is a corrupt cop, who is quite happy to turn a blind eye to the drug traffic, till one day it comes too close home. The feisty Dr Preet Sahni (Kareena Kapoor Khan), who runs a rehab clinic, becomes the other strong salutary influence on Sartaj, and the film takes an about-turn. Anyone with half an eye open can see that this is not a film that glorifies drugs. The degradation of Alia’s character, both physical and mental, is horrifying. An addicted teenager’s spiralling down the primrose path is another of the plot’s see-see-this-is-what-drugs-can-do-to-you thread. It gets to the point where you want to say right, we get it, move on. Diljit and Alia played significant role in the movie. A huge star in Punjab made his debut in the movie. He adds enormously to the authenticity and heft of the film. The music in the movie has been given by the legendary singer Amit Trivedi. He is master in placing music and adding context to moments.

Which inverse function calculator is best? If you’re taking a math course in which you’re studying inverse functions, you’ll likely be required to graph functions and their inverses in many ways. An inverse function graphing calculator will allow you to graph functions quickly and precisely, which will help you visualize how these graphs behave. This allows you to graph accurately through other methods. Just as any number has an inverse, many functions also have inverses. For example, the inverse of 5 is ⅕. The inverse of the function y = x is y = 1/x. You can find the inverse of a function algebraically, but graphing it is a great way to visualize how an inverse function cancels its parent function out. For producing high-quality graphs of functions, the Texas Instruments TI-Nspire CX II CAS Color Graphing Calculator is the top choice. What is an inverse graphing calculator? An inverse graphing calculator is any graphing calculator capable of graphing the inverse of a function. Suppose you’re used to using basic math or scientific calculators limited to operations like addition and multiplication. In that case, you’ll be blown away by the collection of functions offered by an inverse graphing calculator. Inverse graphing calculators help higher-level math students, such as those in advanced algebra and pre-calculus, visualize functions and their inverses to learn how the graphs behave. They’re powerful tools for learning in the palm of your hand. What to know before you buy an inverse function calculator Faster processors will enable you to work more quickly. Manufacturers measure speed in megahertz. Course or testing requirements Be sure to pay close attention to the requirements listed on your syllabus or in the guidelines for any exam you’re planning to use your calculator for before purchasing one. Some classes and exams have specific requirements for what calculator is permitted. What to look for in a quality inverse function calculator Most inverse function graphing calculators run on rechargeable batteries, saving you money and removing the inconvenience of purchasing new batteries. To avoid the recurring expense of replacing your batteries, be sure to look for a model with a rechargeable battery. It’s crucial to look for this feature if you’re considering older models, which often used disposable batteries. The display on your graphing calculator will impact what it’s like to use your calculator in class or at home studying. Picking an inverse function calculator with a high-definition backlit screen will make it easier to use your calculator for long hours or late at night without struggling to decipher details. Full-color screens are also helpful for differentiating between various graphed lines on the same plot. Choose an inverse function calculator with a good amount of memory to store the functions and equations you use most often. This is especially useful in higher-level math courses where you perform many advanced calculations. How much you can expect to spend on an inverse function calculator Inverse function graphing calculators range in price from $60-$300. The calculators at the lower under of the range will satisfy all the basic requirements of an inverse function calculator but won’t have as high quality a display as higher-end calculators. For $150-$300, expect full-color screens and high capability with features such as 3D modeling and statistical analysis. Inverse function calculator FAQ What line should the inverse function reflect over on my calculator? A. When graphing an inverse function by hand, first graph the original function. Next, graph the line y = x on the same cartesian plane. Graph it as a dashed line to help you visualize the way each point in your graph is reflected over this line. Note that this line passes through the origin (0,0) of the graph and has a slope of 1. Do I need to be able to graph inverse functions by hand? A. In almost all math classes in which inverse functions are taught, you’ll be expected to learn how to graph them by hand. However, this involves some reasonably simple computations that are easy to understand with a bit of practice. Having a graphing calculator that can quickly and precisely graph the inverse of a function will allow you to visualize how inverse functions work and act as an essential supplemental tool while you master graphing functions and their inverses through various methods. How do I solve for an inverse function in two ways? A. The first way to solve an inverse function is to graph it by hand or on your graphing calculator. To graph by hand, plot the original function and then reflect its coordinates over the line y = x. The second way to graph the inverse function is algebraic. Start with the original equation’s function, swap x and y, and then solve. For example: f(x) = 5x +10 (original function of x) y = 5x + 10 (replace function notation with y)

The use of natural substances has carried on from past generations up to the present day, and some of these alternative practices have influenced current conventional medicine. Complementary and alternative medicine (CAM), as defined by the National Centre for Complementary and Alternative Medicine (NCCAM), is a group of diverse medical and health care systems, practices and products that are not presently considered to be part of conventional medicine. It is based on the belief that a medical care provider has to treat the whole person – body, mind and spirit.1 On the contrary, conventional medicine refers to the use of physical interventions or pharmacologically active agents that have been proven effective through scientific research.2 The non-medical therapies are classified into five categories by NCCAM: (1) alternative medical systems, (2) biologically based therapies, (3) mind–body interventions, (4) manipulative and body-based methods, and (5) energy therapies.3 In this method of health care alternative physicians guide their patients to facilitate healing and total well-being. Recent studies show that in any given year at least one type of CAM is used by 69% of Americans.4 Other studies have shown that up to 60% of French, German and British people use homeopathic or herbal products.5 A survey conducted in 2006 in Dubai showed that 28% of the population had used more than one form of alternative medicine in the last 12 months, and about 48% of the population had used an alternative therapy at least once in their lifetime.6 Complementary and alternative medicines are most frequently used for musculoskeletal problems, including neck, back and joint pain, according to US studies.7 For certain conditions, CAM has been used in conjunction with conventional medicine. Various studies have been conducted worldwide to assess the use of alternative medicine. This study was conducted to evaluate the use of alternative medicine, with and without conventional medicine, among the population of the United Arab Emirates (UAE), specifically those with musculoskeletal problems, and also to determine the factors that influence individuals to choose CAM as a therapy. Materials and methods The study is a cross-sectional survey. A total of 305 subjects participated in the study. All individuals above 20 years of age residing in the UAE were eligible for inclusion in the study. Individuals below 20 years of age were excluded. A convenience sampling strategy was used. Based on the statistics given by the Eastern Mediterranean Health Journal in 2000, 73% of the study subjects documented that they used alternative medicine, including mainly herbal medicine, as well as other types.8 Thus, the sample size was calculated using the formula: [Where: z = z value (normal standard variate) = 1.96 for 95% confidence level; p = expected proportion in population based on previous studies or pilot studies; q = 1 – p; C = confidence interval (absolute error or precision) = expressed as a decimal.] The survey was conducted in Ajman, UAE. The study was conducted from January to December 2012. The tool for data collection was a questionnaire, which was drawn up after an extensive review of the literature. Data required for this research were collected by means of an interviewer questionnaire of university and hospital staff members residing in the UAE. A total of 305 questionnaires were completed. The questionnaire included both open-ended and closed questions. Questions regarding factors influencing the choice to use CAM as a therapy were also asked. In addition, a final question was asked to determine whether people would prefer to have alternative therapies available alongside allopathic practices in hospitals, so as to suggest a possible change in health care policies. A pilot study was carried out using 10 people meeting the inclusion criteria and feedback was taken from them in order to improve the structure of the questions in the questionnaire. Data were collected after getting approval from the Ethics Committee, Gulf Medical University. Written consent was taken from the institutions and organizations concerned and the individuals before they were interviewed. Collected data were entered into Microsoft Excel (Microsoft, Washington, DC, USA) and analysed using Statistical Product and Service Solutions (SPSS) version 19 (IBM Corporation, New York, NY, USA). Data were presented as percentages, tables and graphs. A chi-squared test was carried out to verify association. The mean age of the 305 participants was 32.2 (standard deviation ± 1.4) years. Table 1 shows the sociodemographic profile of the 305 study subjects used for this study. As presented, approximately half of the population were male (56%) and the other half were female (44%). The majority of the population surveyed were Indian (69%). With regard to education, most subjects had a Bachelor’s degree (30%), but this was closely followed by subjects with a Master’s degree (27%). Most of the participants (60%) were married. The frequency and percentage of CAM users in the population surveyed is illustrated in Figure 1. Table 2 shows the frequency and percentage of CAM users who also used allopathic medicine. As presented, the number of people

Mr. Wille Eerola, Chairman of Nordic Pakistan Business Summit and Honorary Consul General of Pakistan for Finland encourages Nordic cleantech companies to enter into Pakistan. “Pakistan has two major challenges and those are energy and water. In the Nordic market we have probably the world’s best knowledge in sustainable energy and water treatment and Pakistan could easily become the biggest single market for many of those”, he said in a meeting held in Helsinki, Finland. Please read the latest Dawn article about drinking water in Pakistan: More than 80pc Pakistanis consume contaminated and unsafe water, Minister for Science and Technology Rana Tanveer informed the Senate on Tuesday.Responding a question from PPP Senator Sherry Rehman, the minister said the Pakistan Council for Research in Water Resources (PCRWR) had conducted various water quality monitoring projects in the country. He said 69pc to 82pc water samples collected from 2,807 villages in 24 districts across the country were found contaminated or unsafe for drinking. The PCRWR, which is a research and development organisation of the Ministry of Science and Technology, reported that major contamination was due to bacteria (coliforms), toxic metals (mainly arsenic), turbidity, total dissolved solids (TDS) and nitrate and fluoride pollution, said the minister.

Winter at the 1999 Cannes Film Festival |Born||Alexander Ross Winter| July 17, 1965 London, England, UK |Occupation||Actor, film director, screenwriter| |Spouse(s)||Sonya Dawson (1995-?; divorced; 1 child)| Ramsey Ann Naito (2010-present; 2 children) Alexander Ross Winter (born July 17, 1965) is a British-American actor, film director and screenwriter, best known for his role as Bill S. Preston, Esq. in the 1989 film Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure and its 1991 sequel Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey. He is also well known for his role as Marko in the 1987 vampire film The Lost Boys, and for co-writing, co-directing and starring in the 1993 film Freaked. Early life and education Winter was born in London, England, to mother Gregg Mayer, a New York-born American who was a former Martha Graham dancer who founded a modern-dance company in London in the mid-1960s, and father Ross Albert Winter, an Australian who danced with Winter's mother's troupe. Winter received training in dance as a child. He grew up in a Jewish family. He has an older brother named Stephen. When Winter was five, his family moved to Missouri, where his father ran the Mid-American Dance Company, while his mother taught dance at Washington University in St. Louis. The two divorced in 1973. In 1978, Winter moved to the New York City area, where he and his mother lived in Montclair, New Jersey. During this time Winter began performing as an actor on and off Broadway, commuting into New York City. In 1983, after graduating from Montclair High School, Winter was accepted into the Tisch School of the Arts at New York University. While at NYU, he met fellow aspiring filmmaker Tom Stern. The two collaborated on a number of 16mm short films and both graduated with honours. As an actor, Winter spent many years on Broadway with supporting roles in productions of The King and I, Peter Pan, or The Boy Who Wouldn't Grow Up, and the American premiere of Simon Gray's Close of Play at the Manhattan Theatre Club. After completing NYU film school, he and Tom Stern moved out to Hollywood, where the two wrote and directed a number of short films and music videos. Winter continued to find work as an actor, landing notable roles in such big productions as The Lost Boys and Rosalie Goes Shopping. In 1989, Winter found international success when he co-starred with Keanu Reeves as Bill S. Preston in the smash-hit comedy Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure and its 1991 sequel, Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey. Following the success of Bill & Ted, Winter and creative collaborators Tom Stern and Tim Burns were hired to develop a sketch comedy show for MTV. The result, 1991's The Idiot Box, was a success for the network, but the channel's budgetary problems prevented them from filming additional seasons, and it was canceled after six episodes. Winter, Stern and Burns accepted a $12 million deal from 20th Century Fox to film their own feature film, which would end up becoming 1993's Freaked. While the film was never widely released, despite positive reviews from The New York Times, and Entertainment Weekly, Freaked went on to become a cult favourite, through festivals, TV and DVD, and was cited by Entertainment Weekly, on their list of Top Ten Comedies of the Nineties. Winter did not return to directing until 1999, when he filmed Fever. The film was shown at film festivals worldwide, including Official Selection in the Director's Fortnight at Cannes. New York Daily News praised the film, calling it "a claustrophobic mind bender. Winter sustains an aura of creepiness worthy of Roman Polanski." Winter directed the live-action adaptation of the hit Cartoon Network series Ben 10, which aired in November 2007 and garnered the highest ratings in Cartoon Network history. He directed its sequel, Ben 10: Alien Swarm which aired on Cartoon Network in November 2009 and captured over 16 million viewers in its premiere weekend. He has reportedly been chosen to write the screenplay for the Howard Stern-produced remake of Rock 'n' Roll High School. His latest project is a 3D-remake of the 1987 horror film The Gate which was scheduled for release in 2011. In April 2011, Winter's Bill & Ted co-star Keanu Reeves confirmed that a third installment of the film series was underway. Winter's confirmed work on Bill & Ted 3 was still in progress in a 2014 article on the original film's 25th anniversary. In 2016, Winter said that he hoped the film would go into production in 2017. Reeves confirmed in February 2017 that the third film is being made, and the writers have a story.

By Sarah Sommerfeld, PAg, Agri-Environmental Specialist Managing pastures for maximum productivity is a long term goal, but weather fluctuations, fire, insect or wildlife damage and any other unforeseen circumstances can quickly create a complex balancing act. During times of dry conditions, the urge to use as much of what little forage growth there is, may be overwhelming. Before doing so, producers must consider the future consequences of pushing pastures to obtain more grazing days. No Roots – No Grass Roughly two-thirds of total plant growth occurs below ground, while the above ground portion only makes up about one-third. The extensive root system forms the lifeline for forage plants and helps ensure long-term survival as well as productivity. Moisture stress can reduce or impair root growth even without added grazing pressure. When plants are repeatedly grazed, without a recovery period, the root system becomes increasingly shallow. This results in plants that are less vigorous, robust and productive. Resist the Urge The amount and distribution of dead plant material, also known as litter, on a pasture is an indicator of previous grazing management. Litter is an essential component of a healthy pasture and ecosystem. The litter left behind helps to shade and cools the soil, which reduces evaporation and conserves moisture. Litter also helps to protect the soil from erosion and maintains soil stability. Removing every last blade of grass leads to decreasing litter carryover and increases recovery time. Effective rest is the time required for plants to recover during the growing season. The amount of rest needed depends on the amount of leaf area remaining after grazing and the time of grazing during the growing season. Under ideal conditions, effective rest for tame pastures is four to six weeks. If limited moisture is available, the plant will not regrow as quickly and a longer rest period is needed. Overgrazed plants will use root reserves for leaf area regrowth and stop allocating resources to root growth in an attempt to survive short-term. When dry conditions persist into subsequent years, desirable plants will first reduce production and eventually disappear from a pasture. It Takes Moisture to Grow Grass There are no quick-fix solutions to forage growth during times of dry conditions. The absence of moisture will inevitably result in absence of forage growth. Adjusting stocking rates and using alternative feeding systems helps protect pastures and ensures animal requirements are being met. As much as it is tempting, overgrazing pastures in dry conditions is not worth the loss of production in subsequent grazing seasons. Leaving sufficient carry-over and allowing sufficient time for plants to recover may be the hardest but most critical grazing management decisions made during dry conditions. For more information on pasture management, contact the Agriculture Knowledge Centre at 1-866-457-2377 or call the Outlook Regional Office at 306-867-5500.

Did you find you needed the triple on the ascents, or would a double work? I noticed that Ollies rig didn’t have suspension. now that you’ve completed the ride how important do you think front suspension is? What about rubber? UST, Stan’s or tubes? What about water management? is 2l enough between the longest stops or did you have a bladder as well I needed every bit of the triple because I ran an 11-27 road cassette. I like the tighter ratios for the long road stretches. I think suspension is the way to go. Adds two pounds but saves a lot of wear and tear on your body. You only take advantage of suspension on 5 or 10 % of the ride but that’s where you can do 90 or 100% of the damage to your hands etc. Tubeless ready in most cases. 2l is not enough, I also had a 2 litre bladder for the longer parts. Consider your speed, the slower you go, the more capacity you’ll require. I only took water from taps. You mentioned you mounted your flashlights using some old reflector mounts. How exactly did you manage that?..I was attempting myself and am having trouble securely attaching the light to the bracket. It looks like you used rubber and zip ties? Bits of rubber, zip ties and drilling a couple holes, one per mount, to thread a zip tie were all required. I also used loctite on the machine screw threads. This setup has been bomb-proof for both of my divide attempts. Mail (will not be published) (required) bikepacking.net is powered by and Comments (RSS)|

The Budget has tried to address infrastructure financing issues by announcing deepening of the corporate bond market and allocation of Rs.25,000 crore towards recapitalization of public sector banks. I would not hesitate in terming the Budget as focused on re-igniting ¨growth¨ with emphasis on fiscal discipline. Infrastructure remains a focus area with an attempt to unleash the capital expenditure cycle. The total outlay allocated for infrastructure in budgeted expenditure for financial year (FY) 2016-17 is Rs.2.21 trillion. In addition to providing high budgetary allocations to infrastructure, the Budget has also tried to address its financing issues by announcing deepening of the corporate bond market and allocation of Rs.25,000 crore towards recapitalization of public sector banks. However, given the huge NPAs already disclosed by them in the last two quarters and continued high degree of stress expected on their balance sheets, one was expecting a larger corpus allocation for recapitalization. This may adversely affect companies in infrastructure and other core sectors committed to undertake capital expenditure in the near future. Further, the budget speech also included initiation of the Public Utility Dispute Resolution Bill and guidelines on renegotiation of public private partnership (PPP) concession agreements. While the dispute resolution initiative is aligned to the Kelkar Committee Report and was expected, I believe allowing renegotiation of terms in PPP contracts is a rather bold step with a positive intent. Initiating renegotiation of contracts is a sensitive issue and may certainly need to be rationally calibrated in a well-defined framework to avoid any undue advantage being passed on to stakeholders. Apart from the above, it has been proposed to provide an investment linked deduction to Indian companies or their consortium engaged in the business of developing or operating and maintaining of a new infrastructure facility. The specific infrastructure facilities include roads and highways and water projects. This will incentivise cash rich companies to invest in infrastructure and thus, industry participation is expected to increase. Roads & Highways Together with the capital expenditure announced for the Railways, the total capex outlay for roads and railways in 2016-17 will be Rs.2.18 trillion. The government plans to develop road projects spanning 50,000 km and entailing investments of about $250 billion over the next five to six years. It has allocated Rs.55,000 crore to roads, topped by Rs.15,000 crore raised by the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) through bonds. The total investment in roads including the rural Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojana allocation would be Rs.97,000 crore during FY 2016-17. This will certainly increase the pace of completion of road projects which would be closer to the proposed construction rate of 30 km per day rate in next 12-18 months. The strategy to push the stranded road projects is being vigorously pursued by the Ministry of Road Transport & Highways. The FM claimed that 85 per cent of these stranded projects have been already put back on track. While these figures seem to be too good to believe, the approach and the relentless efforts certainly needs to be lauded. NHAI has a target of awarding 10,000 km of projects this fiscal year, out of which 6,353 km of projects had already been awarded. The remaining are also expected to be awarded soon. An approval of nearly 10,000 km of national highways in FY 2016-17 is expected. I would tend to believe that most of these projects are likely to be awarded on the EPC and annuity model and hence may be a big positive, particularly for EPC companies focused on roads. Road transport in passenger segment is to be opened up to the private sector by amending the Motor Vehicles Act to remove/reduce permit raj and allow more private participation. Key Budget announcement One of the biggest challenge which the Indian power sector is facing is access to reasonable means of finance. The twofold increase announced in the clean energy cess would be marginally denting the confidence of stakeholders in conventional power generation. The capacity addition in the solar segment has briskly picked up over the last two years and is expected to dominate the capacity addition in the RE sector for the next few. However, the capping of Accelerated Depreciation benefit to 40 per cent will have a marginally retarding effect on the capacity addition. Power procurement would remain the biggest challenge to watch out for which the government has sought to address through the UDAY scheme. The government is working on the National Civil Aviation Policy 2015, which deals with a number of aspects such as safety, bilateral traffic rights, regional air connectivity, aeronautical Make in India, 5/20 Rule, etc., to create an ecosystem with a mission to provide safe, secure, affordable and sustainable air travel with access to various parts of India and the world. The major budget announcements were: FDI norms in certain segments in the civil aviation sector has been raised to 100 per cent from 74 per cent, thus allowing

The aim of this work was to determine the aetiology, apparent prevalence, spatial distribution and risk factors for brucellosis transmission in several Iberian wild ungulates.| [Methods]: A multi-species indirect immunosorbent assay (iELISA) using Brucella S-LPS antigen was developed. In several regions having brucellosis in livestock, individual serum samples were taken between 1999 and 2009 from 2,579 wild bovids, 6,448 wild cervids and 4,454 Eurasian wild boar (Sus scrofa), and tested to assess brucellosis apparent prevalence. Strains isolated from wild boar were characterized to identify the presence of markers shared with the strains isolated from domestic pigs. [Results] Mean apparent prevalence below 0.5% was identified in chamois (Rupicapra pyrenaica), Iberian wild goat (Capra pyrenaica), and red deer (Cervus elaphus). Roe deer (Capreolus capreolus), fallow deer (Dama dama), mouflon (Ovis aries) and Barbary sheep (Ammotragus lervia) tested were seronegative. Only one red deer and one Iberian wild goat resulted positive in culture, isolating B. abortus biovar 1 and B. melitensis biovar 1, respectively. Apparent prevalence in wild boar ranged from 25% to 46% in the different regions studied, with the highest figures detected in South-Central Spain. The probability of wild boar being positive in the iELISA was also affected by age, age-by-sex interaction, sampling month, and the density of outdoor domestic pigs. A total of 104 bacterial isolates were obtained from wild boar, being all identified as B. suis biovar 2. DNA polymorphisms were similar to those found in domestic pigs. [Conclusions]: In conclusion, brucellosis in wild boar is widespread in the Iberian Peninsula, thus representing an important threat for domestic pigs. By contrast, wild ruminants were not identified as a significant brucellosis reservoir for livestock. |Descripción:||43 pages, 3 figures, 5 tables, 1 additional file.-- et al.| |Versión del editor:||http://dx.doi.org/10.1186/1471-2334-10-46| |Aparece en las colecciones:||(IDAB) Artículos| Ficheros en este ítem: |Iberianwildungulates.pdf||831,14 kB||Adobe PDF|

- Subscribe NowLimited Time Offer MTC to vote on $1.5B to electrify Caltrain Send this to a friend Members of the Metropolitan Transportation Commission's board of directors plan to vote March 28 on whether to commit $1.5 billion for the electrification of the Caltrain commuter rail system connecting Silicon Valley and San Francisco. Officials of the Bay Area's transportation planning and funding agency released a document Wednesday saying that about half of that amount, or $706 million, would come from the California High-Speed Rail Authority. The balance would come from local, regional and federal funding sources. Electrifying Caltrain is one of the major steps to be taken in developing a "blended" system combining the existing commuter rail service that carries more than 40,000 passengers a day along the peninsula with the state's $100 billion high-speed rail network that will connect the Bay Area with Southern California. That approach was proposed by the California High-Speed Rail Authority and local political leaders in response to opposition to high-speed rail among some residents and public officials in such South Bay and peninsula cities as Palo Alto, Menlo Park and Atherton. One business community leader lauded the news. "This is a great leap forward for transportation in our region," Jim Wunderman, president and CEO of the Bay Area Council, an advocacy and public policy organization that represents some of the region's largest employers, said in a statement. "Electrifying Caltrain is one of the top priorities of the CEOs we represent. Caltrain is a foundational transportation system that links businesses in our country's most economically productive corridor – a corridor severely clogged by traffic. Electrification will boost ridership, clean up our air and remove thousands of cars a day from Highway 101." David Goll covers health care, retail, nonprofits and education at the Business Journal.

I'm back as promised with another layout of Demi's first day at school, this time with a focus on her uniform... Again, I wanted the photos to stand out on their own so I added just a few accents, by way of punchies, die cut letters for the title, and some images from the Sew Suite stamp set. Colours used were Night of Navy, So Saffron and Crumb Cake. I still have quite a number of photos to scrap so I hope to get started on those soon & I'll be sure to share them with you once they're done. Until then, take care.

Alright so, there is not really much chance to go out of Korea, so I’m kind of like a rare case. They don’t even think about wanting to go out because there hasn’t been any talks about it being a good thing to go out, a good thing to have an experience in another country. They think we should live in, like, hell — no not hell. It’s just hard, really hard to get a job, to live on your own, get money. Especially the young ages - like, all around the 20s - ‘cos there aren’t many jobs you can take. Even if you’ve graduated with a Masters degree you can’t really take a good job ‘cos all the jobs are taken. So yeah, most live at home with their parents. If you’re living by yourself, you have to pay a lot of rent so it doesn’t really make sense to save any money. That’s why I decided to go out ‘cos I’d been there a while. They don’t even think about wanting to go out, to explore, ‘cos i think they don’t know what they could get by exploring. So that’s why I decided to go out and write about my experiences after I finish this chapter. By living in Bristol I feel like it’s just the same world, not a different planet. But also I can realise there are a lot of things that don’t really make sense here…

It may date back to the 17th century as a direct Italian descendant of a Spanish secret society, the Garduña, founded in 1417. The first official use of the word dates from 1735, when a royal decree authorised the establishment of eight gambling houses in Naples. The Camorra first emerged during the chaotic power vacuum in the years between 1799 and 1815, when the Parthenopean Republic was proclaimed on the wave of the French Revolution and the Bourbon Restoration. Another qualitative leap was the agreement of the liberal opposition and the Camorra, following the defeat in the 1848 revolution. Following Italian unification in 1861 attempts were made to tackle the Camorra and a series of manhunts were made from 1882 on. The bottom line The original low camorra held sway over the poor plebs in an age of abjection and servitude. Then there arose a high camorra comprising the most cunning and audacious members of the middle class. They fed off trade and public works contracts, political meetings and government bureaucracy. This high camorra strikes deals and does business with the low camorra, swapping promises for favours and favours for promises. However, whether the “high Camorra” was an integral part of the Camorra proper is disputed. Although the inquiry did not prove specific collusion between the Camorra and politics, it brought to light the patronage mechanisms that fueled corruption in the municipality. Most of the defendants are in the large cage. Ciro Vitozzi, Maria Stendardo, the only female defendant, and Enrico Alfano. In the small cage to the right is the crown witness Gennaro Abbatemaggio. The Camorra was never a coherent whole nor a centralised organization. Instead, it has always been a loose confederation of different, independent groups or families. Each group was bound around kinship ties and controlled economic activities which took place in its particular territory. Each family clan took care of its own business, protected its territory, and sometimes tried to expand at another group’s expense. One of the Camorra’s strategies to gain social prestige is political patronage. The family clans became the preferred interlocutors of local politicians and public officials, because of their grip on the community. In turn, the family bosses used their political sway to assist and protect their clients against the local authorities. Compared to the Sicilian Mafia’s pyramidal structure, the Camorra has more of a ‘horizontal’ than a ‘vertical’ structure. As a result, individual Camorra clans act independently of each other, and are more prone to feuding among themselves. This however makes the Camorra more resilient when top leaders are arrested or killed, with new clans and organizations germinating out of the stumps of old ones. In 1983, Italian law enforcement estimated that there were only about a dozen Camorra clans. By 1987, the number had risen to 26, and in the following year, a report from the Naples flying squad reported their number as 32. Currently it is estimated there are about 111 Camorra clans and over 6,700 members in Naples and the immediate surroundings. In 2004 and 2005 the Di Lauro clan and the so-called Scissionisti di Secondigliano fought a bloody feud which came to be known in the Italian press as the Scampia feud. The result was over 100 street killings. In 2001 the businessman Domenico Noviello from Caserta testified against a Camorra extortionist and subsequently received police protection. In 2008 he refused further protection and was killed one week later. In recent years, various Camorra clans have been forming alliances with Nigerian drug gangs and the Albanian mafia, even going so far as to intermarry. Since the mid-1990s, the Camorra has taken over the handling of refuse disposal in the region of Campania, with disastrous results for the environment and the health of the general population. With the assistance of private businessmen known as “stakeholders”, the

She called.the cast of The View– Barbara, Whoopi, Joy, Sheri, and the Republican. That made me laugh and any book that makes me laugh or perhaps smile is well worth the loan.

The Third: You must not hold a grudge versus your ex. Inning accordance with Mayo Clinic, forgiveness can cause higher spiritual and psychological wellness; less tension and hostility; lower high blood pressure; healthier relationships; fewer symptoms of anxiety, stress and anxiety and persistent pain; and lower threat of alcohol addiction counseling. Although recovery can be a rough roadway, it does not indicate that relapse is unavoidable. In truth, an appealing fact is that over half of individuals who get treatment ultimately reach a state of continual recovery. In 2007, Matthew Shafer was jailed in North Carolina on a felony charge of second degree forcible sex offense. He plead guilty to a lower charge of misdemeanor attack, and was fined $1,500, a year’s probation, and bought to undergo alcohol counseling. Alcohol Abuse Counselor In Albany New York 12211: Addiction Is A Health Problem. It Cannot Be Cured. It Could Be Remedied. Everyone asks, why do not you just leave him (or her)? And the response is this – fear and intimidation prevent people from leaving their partners. You CAN escape, nevertheless, and you have EVERYTHING you require to leave the violent relationship. What follows is the story of one woman who discovered out she was really worth more than the abuse she suffered. Hopefully you too can find your escape of this pit of anguish. Shalev, A.

The garden at Rosewood is going to be having a bit of a revamp. This fits in with us going a little more green and environmentally friendly at the Centre. We’ve had advice from the Trust’s Energy and Environment Department and the Garden Group which runs on a Friday has come up with a plan for the garden and now have a list of tasks to focus on for the year ahead. A few items from this task list include; moving some of the existing plants; growing vegetables to use within Rosewood; planting willow to provide for service user crafts within the Trust; touching up the paintwork; and making the garden more insect friendly to help with biodiversity. One thought on “Going Green – Rosewood Garden”

Safety inspectors in California have cited Scaled Composites for being at fault for the explosion that killed three employees at their Mojave Air and Space Port. The explosion occurred in July 2007 and stunned the X-Prize winning company. They now face a maximum fine of $25,310. Burt Rutan’s Scaled Composite company has been going from strength to strength in recent years. In 2004 the company was successful at launching their SpaceShipOne to an altitude of 114km, claiming the $10 million Ansari X-Prize in 2004. Since this historic win, Rutan has formed a powerful alliance with British businessman Richard Branson’s Virgin Galactic. Branson is currently heading the construction of the world’s first Space Port in the New Mexico desert, using SpaceShipOne’s successor, the larger SpaceShipTwo, as the principal craft to take 6 people into space. Stowed under a WhiteKnightTwo aircraft, SpaceShipTwo is designed for a conventional take-off until the pair are at approximately 15 km in altitude. At this point, the pair separate, allowing SpaceShipTwo to accelerate to 2500 mph by firing its single hybrid rocket engine. Weightlessness will be achieved, giving space tourists an idea of what it feels like to be in a low Earth orbit. Tragically, three personnel working on the Scaled Composites site in the Mojave Desert last July were killed in an accident during tests involving a rocket propellant. The report from safety officials state that the company failed to provide “effective information and training of the health and physical hazards associated with nitrous oxide,” the fuel used to power the rockets. Since the incident safety measures have been stepped up and it is hoped that this sad event won’t delay the 2009 launch of the first space tourism flights by Virgin Galactic.

Almost all road users – whether you are in Australia or another country – have at some time experienced the frustration caused by road construction or road maintenance on a highway. However, with professional traffic control services, the impact of road construction and maintenance on traffic flow can be lessened. In this article, we’ll briefly discuss matters regarding the role of highway traffic control in evaluating the impact roadworks may have on traffic flow and how they manage the situation. What is Traffic Flow? According to dictionary definitions “traffic flow” is the movement of individual drivers and vehicles between two points on a road. This includes the interactions they have with one another and the road itself. In other words, when highway traffic control evaluates traffic flow they are studying the movement of vehicles on a specific section of the highway. What is Professional Traffic Control? A traffic controller directs the flow of vehicles and other road users. Doing this professionally involves more than just holding a stop/go sign. The tasks of a highway traffic control officer include much more. As a professional, the traffic control officer, for instance, evaluates the impact specific road constructions and maintenance actions have on traffic flow and takes the necessary steps to keep the road users informed and safe. What Might be the Impact of Roadworks on Traffic Flow? Roadworks, especially road construction projects almost always significantly impact traffic flow: - Road construction or road maintenance, almost always constrain the capacity of a road. - A common restraint is lane closure. - Another restraint is lane narrowing. Highway traffic control has to evaluate these constraints and find ways to lessen the impact on traffic flow. Highway traffic control evaluates the situation daily and sometimes even on an hourly basis. Depending on the evaluation of the impact of roadworks on traffic flow, the highway traffic control can, for instance, arrange that the roadworks are scaled down during peak hours. Another way to solve the problem is to advise road users to use alternative routes. Traffic Control Hiring With large construction or maintenance projects, road authorities sometimes don’t have enough traffic officers to evaluate the impact of the roadworks on traffic flow, or enough officers to implement the highway traffic control’s recommendations regarding traffic flow. They then hire one of the traffic control companies, such as the UVS Group, to assist them. The UVS Group, like the other experienced and reliable companies, has earned a well-established track record and is well-equipped and has experience in Australian highway traffic control.

Cole Vosbury Eliminated on ‘The Voice’ It's been a long, wild ride for Shreveport's Cole Vosbury. The singer made it all the way to the final 5 on 'The Voice,' but on Tuesday, Dec. 10, that journey ended. Vosbury was eliminated in the semifinals. The shocking exits of Vosbury and James Wolpert leaves Tessanne Chin, Jaquie Lee and Will Champlin as the final three contestants on season 5. Next week will be the season's finale, taking place on Dec. 16 and 17. Hours before his elimination, Vosbury took to Twitter to thank all his fans for their support. "To all my fans, thank you so much for all your love and support," he said. "With only 3 spots open, prepared for anything." You could tell it was an emotional moment as Carson Daly brought Vosbury and Will Champlin on the stage to determine the last finalist -- and who would end their run on 'The Voice.' While the bearded and soulful singer won't continue on to the finals next week, we have a feeling this isn't the end for Vosbury. He's scheduled to sing The National Anthem at the 2013 AdvoCare V100 bowl on Dec. 31. We can't wait to see Shreveport give him a grand 'welcome home.'

Jump to Main Content Silicon Quantum Dot Nanoparticles with Antifouling Coatings for Immunostaining on Live Cancer Cells - Tu, Chang-Ching, Chen, Kuang-Po, Yang, Tsu-An, Chou, Min-Yuan, Lin, Lih Y., Li, Yaw-Kuen - ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces 2016 v.8 no.22 pp. 13714-13723 - antibodies, antifouling agents, biocompatibility, biodegradability, bovine serum albumin, cell viability, cytotoxicity, electrochemistry, energy, flow cytometry, fluorescein, fluorescence, fluorescent antibody technique, hydrophilicity, image analysis, isothiocyanates, milling, nanoparticles, neoplasm cells, neoplasms, nitric acid, photoluminescence, polyethylene glycol, quantum dots, silicon, solvents, water solubility - Fluorescent silicon quantum dots (SiQDs) have shown a great potential as antiphotobleaching, nontoxic and biodegradable labels for various in vitro and in vivo applications. However, fabricating SiQDs with high water-solubility and high photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) remains a challenge. Furthermore, for targeted imaging, their surface chemistry has to be capable of conjugating to antibodies, as well as sufficiently antifouling. Herein, antibody-conjugated SiQD nanoparticles (SiQD-NPs) with antifouling coatings composed of bovine serum albumin (BSA) and polyethylene glycol (PEG) are demonstrated for immunostaining on live cancer cells. The monodisperse SiQD-NPs of diameter about 130 nm are synthesized by a novel top-down method, including electrochemical etching, photochemical hydrosilylation, high energy ball milling, and “selective-etching” in HNO₃ and HF. Subsequently, the BSA and PEG are covalently grafted on to the SiQD-NP surface through presynthesized chemical linkers, resulting in a stable, hydrophilic, and antifouling organic capping layer with isothiocyanates as the terminal functional groups for facile conjugation to the antibodies. The in vitro cell viability assay reveals that the BSA-coated SiQD-NPs had exceptional biocompatibility, with minimal cytotoxicity at concentration up to 1600 μg mL–¹. Under 365 nm excitation, the SiQD-NP colloid emits bright reddish photoluminescence with PLQY = 45–55% in organic solvent and 5–10% in aqueous buffer. Finally, through confocal fluorescent imaging and flow cytometry analysis, the anti-HER2 conjugated SiQD-NPs show obvious specific binding to the HER2-overexpressing SKOV3 cells and negligible nonspecific binding to the HER2-nonexpressing CHO cells. Under similar experimental conditions, the immunofluorescence results obtained with the SiQD-NPs are comparable to those using conventional fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC).

James Wharton said it was a ground breaking idea which would massively boost the local economy. Mr Wharton was responding to criticism of it by North East MP Jenny Chapman. She said the Northern Powerhouse was “nothing but a slogan” after it was revealed how a £300m Government cash pot to bail out cash strapped councils had largely gone to local authorities down south. The Labour MP for Darlington added: “It’s a nonsense. It doesn’t mean anything. It’s hollow.” However Mr Wharton said: “Building a Northern Powerhouse is central to our plans to rebalance our economy and this Government is the first to do something about it with ground-breaking devolution deals across the North, including in Tees Valley and the North East. “This will hand billions of new money to powerful, directly-elected mayors.” Ms Chapman’s outburst came as Labour MPs called for the National Audit Office to examine the way in which the Government chose to hand out the £300m transitional support package for councils. The cash has been made available to soften the impact of reforms that will scrap the revenue support grant given to local authorities in favour of a greater reliance on retaining business rates. But Labour analysis suggested that 83% of the money had been handed to Conservative-run councils. However Mr Wharton, MP for Stockton South, said this had nothing to do with the Northern Powerhouse. He said: “This is about creating private sector growth through improving connectivity and empowering local decision makers, it is not about how much money local authorities receive from central government. “That said, our long-term funding settlement of almost £200 billion for councils over this Parliament is fair, and ensures those facing the highest demand for services continue to receive more funding than less-deprived authorities.” Despite Mr Wharton’s defence of the plan, there is still a great deal of scepticism across the region about the Government’s real commitment to it. Nick Forbes, Newcastle City Council leader, said: “George Osborne has to realise that his Northern Powerhouse needs to be more than just words and it cannot be considered in isolation. We need a Chancellor who hands the region a fair funding settlement just as much as we need one who will play to our exporting strengths. “Myself and leaders in Manchester, Leeds, Sheffield and across the North are working together to secure investment and create jobs. We are setting out what Labour can achieve in office and building the global investment opportunities the Chancellor should be backing. “I hope that in his upcoming budget the Chancellor acts on our ambition and finally turns the Northern Powerhouse into a reality.” However North East mayoral candidate Jeremy Middleton was much more supportive of Mr Wharton. He said: “Jenny Chapman’s comments are deeply inappropriate, she chose to talk down the North East rather than highlight all of the positive things happening here. “She needs to realise that local council and the economy aren’t the same thing. Nobody denies that bringing public spending under control has been hard, but it’s only fair that the workers and small businesses who are the backbone of our economy aren’t simply working to service an ever growing national debt. “The Northern Powerhouse is a once in a lifetime opportunity to bring devolved powers to the North East, and to rebalance the economy with increased investment in jobs and infrastructure, so we can compete with London and the South. “It’s something we should embrace. We’ve had a raw deal for too long, and now that devolved powers and transport spending are just around the corner, Jenny and her fellow MPs have chosen to talk us down and defend the status quo, they’ve chosen to engage in party political point scoring when they should be working with the government to bring businesses and jobs to the area.”

Today is the birthday (1884) of Otto Rank, Austrian psychoanalyst, writer, and teacher. Born in Vienna as Otto Rosenfeld, he was one of Sigmund Freud’s closest colleagues for 20 years, a prolific writer on psychoanalytic themes, an editor of the two most important analytic journals of his day, managing director of Freud’s publishing house and a creative theorist and therapist. In 1926, after a break with Freud, Rank left Vienna for Paris. For the remaining 14 years of his life, Rank had a successful career as a lecturer, writer and therapist in France and the United States. Unlike Freud, Rank’s is not a household name, but it ought to be. His work is arguably more influential nowadays than Freud’s is. In 1905, at the age of 21, Otto Rank presented Freud with a short manuscript on the artist, a study that so impressed Freud he invited Rank to become Secretary of the emerging Vienna Psychoanalytic Society. Rank thus became the first paid member of the psychoanalytic movement, and Freud’s general assistant for almost 20 years. Freud considered Rank, with whom he was more intimate intellectually than his own sons, to be the most brilliant of his Viennese disciples. Encouraged and supported by Freud, Rank (who had attended a vocational high school), completed the “Gymnasium” (college-preparatory high school), attended the University of Vienna, and completed his Ph.D. in 1911. His thesis, on the Lohengrin Saga, was the first Freudian doctoral dissertation. Rank was one of Freud’s six collaborators brought together in a secret “committee” or “ring” to defend the psychoanalytic mainstream as disputes with Adler and then Jung developed. Rank was the most prolific author in the “ring” besides Freud himself, extending psychoanalytic theory to the study of legend, myth, art, and other works of creativity. He worked closely with Freud, contributing two chapters on myth and legend to later editions of The Interpretation of Dreams. Rank’s name appeared underneath Freud’s on the title page for many years. Between 1915 and 1918, Rank served as Secretary of the International Psychoanalytical Association which Freud had founded in 1910. Everyone in the small psychoanalytic world understood how much Freud respected Rank and his prolific creativity in expanding psychoanalytic theory. In 1924, Rank published Das Trauma der Geburt (translated into English as The Trauma of Birth in 1929), exploring how art, myth, religion, philosophy and therapy were illuminated by separation anxiety in the “phase before the development of the Oedipus complex..” But there was no such phase in Freud’s theories. For Freud the Oedipus complex was the nucleus of neurosis and the foundational source of all art, myth, religion, philosophy, therapy – indeed of all human culture and civilization. It was the first time that anyone in the inner circle had dared to suggest that the Oedipus complex might not be the supreme causal factor in psychoanalysis. Rank was the first to use the term “pre-Oedipal” in a public psychoanalytic forum in 1925. After some hesitation, Freud distanced himself from The Trauma of Birth, signaling to other members of his inner circle that Rank was perilously close to anti-Oedipal heresy. “I am boiling with rage,” Freud told Sándor Ferenczi then Rank’s best friend. Confronted with Freud’s decisive opposition, Rank resigned in protest from his positions as Vice-President of the Vienna Psychoanalytic Society, director of Freud’s publishing house, and co-editor of Imago and Zeitschrift. Ferenczi, with whom Rank had collaborated from 1920 through 1924 on new experiential, object-relational and “here-and-now” approaches to therapy, vacillated on the significance of Rank’s pre-Oedipal theory but not on Rank’s objections to classical analytic technique. Rank was the first to see therapy as a learning and unlearning experience. Rank saw the therapeutic relationship as allowing the patient to: (1) learn more creative ways of thinking, feeling and being in the here-and-now; and (2) unlearn self-destructive ways of thinking, feeling and being in the here-and-now. For him, patterns of self-destruction (“neurosis”) represent a failure of creativity not, as Freud assumed, a retreat from sexuality. Rank’s psychology of creativity has recently been applied to action learning, an inquiry-based process of group problem solving, team building, leader development and organizational learning. Transformative action learning, synthesized by Robert Kramer from Rank’s writings on art and spirituality, involves real people, working on real problems in real time. Once a safe space is created by an executive coach, questions allow group members to “step out of the frame of the

I’m 91 years old, but I still enjoy spending time in the wood shop. I like to make wooden toys and give them to my great-grandkids and charity groups. One trick I’ve learned over the years is to use emery boards—the kind for filing fingernails— to sand small parts. Emery boards come in different sizes, and some are more abrasive than others, so I keep an assortment on hand. — Joe Aboussleman Popular and easy to work with, cherry is in high demand for its reddish-brown color and ease of staining and finishing.

Instead of permanently mounting my 6-in. vise to a work-bench, I attached it to scrap plywood so I can clamp it wherever I need it. Stack two pieces of 3/4-in. plywood and screw them together with 1-1/4 in. drywall screws. Mark the vise-mounting holes on the plywood and drill 3/4-in. guide holes through both pieces. Recess the nut by drilling through the bottom sheet with a 1-in. spade bit using the 3/4-in. hole as a guide. Fasten the vise to the plywood with bolts sized to match the vise-mounting holes. If the bolt shafts are too long, cut them off with a hacksaw. — LuAnn Aiu. Plus: Learn how to use vise grips to pull nails. While trying to trace an exact copy of the throat plate for my table saw, I came up with this nifty technique using an ordinary pencil. I just shaved my pencil into a half-pencil by carefully grinding it on my belt sander. The flat edge enables my modified pencil to ride straight up along the edge of the template. It also works great for marking and then shaping inlays for my woodworking projects. — Tim Reese. How to cut circles with a band saw. Always nice to see project ideas. Yet, to make a living while woodworking all projects need to be scaled up so that one can actually earn enough to survive and compete against the flood of Chinese imports and others. Substitute products made from plastic, metal or wood are a common place and normally cheaper due to mass production and human rights violations. Politicians don’t care about the disappearance of many of America’s Cottage Industries and most consumers don’t care as well.

Next is a metric FAL. This was built on a DSA receiver utilizing an excellent condition, refinished kit. This has a magazine release lever that has a set screw to prevent it from releasing. Loading is from the top through a picatinny stripper clip dust cover. It has a thread protector rather than a flash hider as I was planning on eventually going featureless with this rifle. It can easily be converted to a detachable magazine by replacing the magazine release lever and spring. Comes with a ten round magazine. This rifle functions perfectly; I only shot it rarely, much less than 500 rounds. Asking $950 firm. Check back later for a witty comment. Last edited by anothergunnut; 02-25-2013 at 8:47 PM..

South America 1864: Outbreak of the Paraguayan War In 1864 Brazil intervened in Uruguay in support of the liberal Colorado Party, prompting Uruguay's governing Blanco Party to call on Paraguay for support. Confident in his larger and better-equipped military, and desirous of settling his country's numerous unresolved border disputes, Paraguayan President Solano López declared war on Brazil in December. Patagonia was regarded as terra nullius by Britain and France until 1881 (and thus shown as a separate state in most maps of the period). Their main concern, shared with the United States, was to prevent any nation restricting navigation through the Straits of Magellan. 14 Apr 1864 Chincha islands occupation▲ In retaliation for Peru’s refusal to pay an indemnity, Spain landed 400 marines to occupy the Chincha Islands—at the time the principal source of Peruvian guano and responsible for almost 60% of the government’s annual revenue. Meeting little opposition, the invaders quickly arrested the islands’ Peruvian governor and raised the Spanish flag. Spain also initiated a blockade of the major Peruvian ports, disrupting commerce and causing resentment across Latin America. 10 Aug 1864–20 Feb 1865 Uruguayan War▲ On 10 August 1864, after negotiations failed to resolve cross-border lawlessness with Uruguay, the Empire of Brazil announced that it would intervene in Uruguay to resolve matters. Brazilian warships were immediately deployed up the Uruguay River, but it was not until October that the Brazilian army was organized enough to launch its invasion, capturing the eastern town of Melo in support of Uruguay’s exiled former-president Venancio Flores and his Colorado Party. Crossing the country, the Brazilians took Paysandú after a month-long siege, then advanced on Montevideo. In February Uruguay’s governing Blanco Party agreed to capitulate, restoring Flores to power. 13 Dec 1864 Outbreak of Paraguayan War▲ In response to Brazil’s invasion of Uruguay in the face of Paraguayan objections, President Francisco Solano López of Paraguay ordered the seizure of Brazilian shipping on 11 November 1864, severing diplomatic relations with Brazil three days later. The next month, on 13 December, Paraguay formally declared war on Brazil, beginning the 6-year-long Paraguayan War, also called the War of the Triple Alliance. Despite the huge population imbalance—Brazil had 9 million people vs Paraguay’s 1 million—Paraguay started the war with over 60,000 trained troops, far greater than Brazil’s 18,000 (or Argentina’s 8,500).

HIgh Speed Automatic Rotary Piston Filling Machine Automatic Rotary piston filling machine HIgh Speed Automatic Rotary Piston Filling Machine is designed for meeting the high capacity packaging demand, Once production requirements exceed the capability of inline piston fillers. it works on same volumetric principle with the inline piston filler,with rotary head, syringe, piston & nozzle. It is application for filling liquid in bottle in pharmaceuticals, food, dairy, agro chemicals,Cosmetics and Beverages industries, such as detergent, lotion, shampoo, food sauce viscous liquid, and also oils products. An automatic rotary piston filling machine is a type of volumetric liquid filling machine used to fill liquids into bottles, jars, or containers at high speeds. It operates by using a rotary motion to move the containers through a series of stations, where each station performs a specific function in the filling process. The filling process involves filling the liquid into the containers accurately and precisely using a piston mechanism that is driven by a rotary motion. The liquid is metered out using the piston, which moves in and out of a cylinder to fill the desired volume of liquid into the container. Once filled, the containers are then moved to other stations to complete the filling process. Some of the benefits of using an automatic rotary piston filling machine include increased efficiency, accuracy, and speed, as well as reduced labor costs and waste. These machines can be used for a wide range of liquid products, including food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and more. The inline piston fillers, which is more flexiable and adaptable with more specification bottles or containers, the rotary piston filler is suitable for high capacity filling, and one size or two size bulk production,rotary bottle filling equipment is custom-built to your specific requirements.

I am importing photos into lightroom (4.3) into date-organized images. I live in +8 timezone. My computer and my cameras are setup correctly (AFAIK). However, Lightroom consistently imports my images shot in the aftenoon into the next day. That goes for my Canon 7D, my Olympus PEN-2 and my Gopro. I have no idea how to fix this. It seems that Lightroom chooses its own timezone? Also, this is the same behavior on my PC and my laptop (both windows 7). I had now the chance to take this a pit more down to pieces. - when I open the import dialogue and hover over an image, the time displayed there is wrong. It is exactly 8 hours later. I am in Hong Kong (+8) and an image taken at 16:01 will be shown to be taken the following day at 00:01. Once I import the images from the camera, the EXIF shows it to be taken at 16:01. This seem weird to me since - if anything - Lightroom should dial the time backwards, not forward since the computer time zone is correctly set at Hong Kong time, and the correct time. - I tried that now also with a 5D III with the correct time zone set. Same result. - The solution in the link mentioned in the comments does not work. It must be for an old version of Lightroom. There is no such field and no setting for the timezone. - when copying the files first to the hard disk and the importing them, everything is correct. While this might be a workaround, this is not really a practicable solution for me. I have a hard time believing that this is intended behavior.

Friendly fire is inadvertent firing towards one's own or otherwise friendly forces while attempting to engage enemy forces, particularly where this results in injury or death. A death resulting from a negligent discharge is not considered friendly fire. Neither is murder, whether premeditated or in the heat of the moment, nor is deliberate firing on one's own troops for disciplinary reasons, as in these cases there is no intent to harm the enemy. Similarly, inadvertent harm to non-combatants or structures, usually referred to as "collateral damage", is also not considered to be friendly fire. All items (36)

Goodbye Christopher Robin (2017), directed by Simon Curtis, is a British period drama about the British author A.A. Milne, the writer of the celebrated and much beloved Winnie-the-Pooh children stories, and the impact his widely successful creations had on his family especially on his son, Christopher Robin Milne affectionately called Billy Moon. Domhnall Gleeson stars as the shell shocked A.A. Milne and Margot Robbie stars as his glamorous and self-absorbed wife, Daphne. Kelly MacDonald stars as the loving Nanny Olive called “Nou” by Billy Moon. Will Tilston stars as the Young Christopher Robin aka Billy Moon age 8 and Alex Lawther as Christopher Robin Milne age 18. The film is sandwiched between the two world wars and dramatizes the inspiration and creation of the Winnie-the-Pooh stories by the PTSD afflicted writer. The film opens with a wide angle shot of Ashdown Forest, Sussex, England, 1941, the dappled light seeping through the green foliage of the trees saturating the screen. It cuts to a wide angle shot of a female bicycle courier in the background, to a shot of Daphne (Margot Robbie) gardening, to Private Milne (Alex Lawther) in uniform and off to war, to the bicycle courier delivering a telegram to A.A. Milne (Gleeson) about his son Christopher Robin, and then dramatically cuts to a scene of World War I on the Western Front involving the elder Milne in combat. Much information is gleaned in these brief snapshots. The film is based on a true story which forms the basis for the film. The writing process and the development of the Winnie-the-Pooh stories are integral to the narrative and storytelling. The film dramatizes Milne’s relationship to his young son, Billy Moon, and the impact the success of the books had on the development of his son when the public goes wild when they discover he is the inspiration for the character, Christopher Robin, and his teddy bear Edward for Winnie. It is such a visually appealing film especially the juxtaposition of real and the surreal (A.A. Milne’s flashbacks of his soldiering in the Great War), and the animated sequences when the Winnie-the-Pooh stories come to life. The film’s imagery not only captivates but stretches the imagination. The director has woven together many visual elements to create a compelling film where success meets misery, sadness and disappointment set against the English countryside between two world wars. Curtis creates an intimate and moving portrait of the Milne family helped by the superb acting of Gleeson, Robbie, MacDonald and the child actor Will Tilston who is so wonderful to watch as the precocious, loving, sweet, and utterly adorable young Billy Moon. You’ll love not only the acting but the cinematography. The breathtaking wide angle shots of the Essex countryside, beautiful images of Ashton Forest, the backdrop to the narrative and where father and son bond and where the Winnie-the-Pooh stories take shape, the black and white footage of the Milnes’ trip to New York City and use of archival footage to situate the film in time and place, and weaving within the storyline actual events such as the photo shoot of Billy Moon with Winnie the black bear at the London Zoo. Some of the most powerful and disturbing images in the film are A.A. Milne’s flashbacks of war in the trenches of World War I. If you are a fan of British period pieces, biopics, or family dramas, you’ll love this film. It is an inspirational film that celebrates the human spirit, and it is a beautiful film about the creation of art from illness and the power of art to heal and reconcile. I am fond of period pieces for they allow me to experience and escape into a world beyond my social and cultural experiences, and Goodbye Christopher Robin did that for me. It is a wonderful film, and a must to see for fans of Winnie-the-Pooh stories. Fox Searchlight Pictures releases Goodbye Christopher Robin in theatres on Friday, October 13, 2017

The work of the Soros Foundation and some other Western organisations can be equated with the activities of the special services of foreign states. This is part of a hybrid war of the collective West against the countries of the post-Soviet space. In Ukraine, Soros’s scheme is already in effect at all levels. In Armenia, Soros’s projects have not yet reached the final stage of implementation, at which one can state a complete loss of sovereignty. But Ukraine is a vivid example of how Soros NGOs have brought the country “to the brink”. Russia is a leader in the production of a vaccine against Covid-19. Nevertheless, Lithuania has no plans to buy the Russian vaccine. It is a political decision. The Baltic States have their role in the anti-Russian game. Because of this, they will prefer the quite expensive American or European vaccine but not the quite cheap Russian one. The Sputnik V is a real vaccine. The vaccines from other producers exist only theoretically. The US is pushing its partners not to buy the Russian vaccine. It is part of the competition for the market. Americans want to get profit. The message is linked to the topic of the coronavirus Covid-19 pandemic and is part of a pro-Kremlin disinformation campaign in support of the Russian Sputnik V vaccine. It contains different narratives, including a statement about the anti-Russian position of the Baltic states and tries to cast doubt on the vaccines developed by Western companies. The Sputnik V vaccine is not yet certified in the EU. The statement that only the Russian vaccine "is a real vaccine" is false. Other vaccines are developed reported are from Pfizer, Moderna and Oxford University. Lithuania will buy the vaccines together with the other EU states. The European Commission has six contracts under the EU's Vaccines Strategy. The centralised EU procedure to purchase the vaccine avoids competition between single member states of the European Union and ensures that all members will receive the required amount of vaccines. The topic of Covid-19 is part of agenda-setting of modern Kremlin propaganda. The same disinformation campaign includes statements such as the Russian coronavirus vaccine has dozen of orders unlike the American one, Western vaccines are developed for financial speculation whereas Russian vaccines are to save lives, The West is waging a war over the Covid-19 Sputnik V vaccine, Unlike West, Russia is the only state that has a vaccine against Covid-19.

DIRECTORATE OF INTELLIGENCE Zaire's National Route; orthern Option? Me expect that 2airian President Mobutu's concerns about his country's vulnerability to South African countersanctions may prompt hi* to request US aid to strengthen the Voie Nationalaire's internal rail/river system, during his visit to Washingtonecember. Zaire depends on the southern African transportation network toignificant portion of its mineral resources and to import supplies for its important Shaba region. If South Africa were to disrupt these existing transport patterns the VN would be unable to handle moremall portion of the traffic that now moves through South Africa. Alternate routes through adjacent states offer little promise. In consequence, current efforts to revive its economy would be badly hurt by the resulting loss of foreign exchange earnings. Continued donor financing will be necessary just to maintain the existing capacity of the Voie Nationale. The VN is an inefficient system that suffers from outdated and poorly maintained equipment and infrastructurehortage of skilled manpower. Zaire has made some progress in improving portions of the system over theears, but rehabilitation of the rail lines, expansion of river ports, and management improvements are critical to any increase in the capacity of the system. Even with major investments, we doubt that the VN would be able to serve the needs of landlocked Frontline States. Expansion of VN capacity would, however, relieve pressures on the regional transport network and insure the continued transit of the majority of Zaire's mineral exports. [ Zaire's National Route: orthern Option? The Transportation Challenge Zaire depends on the railway network of neighboring countries toignificant portion of its mineral resources and to import much of mineral-rich Shaba province's industrial and consumer needs. Much of this flow moves through South Africa. In the event South African countersanctions or associated developments were to disrupt existing transport patterns, Zairian exports would have to compete with those of other southern African states for use of the region's limited transport facilities or else be channelled entirely onto the Voie Nationaleai"re's only major transport artery. Aboutercent of the country's mineral exports already move along the VN to Zaire's main seaport at Matadi, an equal amount travels the Shaba portion of the system to link with the "southern route* for export through Southnd the remainder exits through the Tanzanian port of Dar es Salaam (see chart). The VN, currently does not have the capacity to absorb moremall percentage of the potential additional traffic. I I Zaire's recent efforts to join the Frontline States*" (FLS) and the Southern African Development Co-ordinationSADCC) reflect its concern over the affects of possible South African countersanctions on its ability to export minerals and to import goods necessary to maintain its domestic mineral industry. he FLS countries are Angola, Botswana, Mozambique, Tanzania, and Zambia.

For the foreseeable future. Zaire's prospects for using alternative routes through adjacent states are poor. Large-scale investments and improvements in efficiency would be required to expand the capacity of the regional transport net to absorb the traffic that now exits through South Africa. IC this flow of goods could not move through the South African com roiled southern route, it would need to be apportioned among several of the six railnets in the region with access to the sea (see map at end of report). Insurgencies have closed two of these routes to regional use--the Benguela railroad to Lobito,nd the Limpopo railroad to Maputo, Mozambique. The Beira corridor throughshortest and potentially cheapestunderused because of mismanagement and deterioration; it is also subject to sabotage and insurgent attacks, as is the route to Nacaia in the northern portion of Mozambique.

Few aircraft in history have undergone a transformation as radical as that experienced by the Kawanishi N1K. Initially designed as a floatplane fighter for the Imperial Japanese Navy during the Second World War, it was eventually redesigned and produced as a land-based fighter. The Kawanishi N1K, or “Kyofu” in its seaplane variant and “Shiden” in its land-based form, offers a fascinating study of aircraft development under the challenging conditions of wartime. Origins & Design The Kawanishi N1K, nicknamed “Shiden” by the Imperial Japanese Navy (IJN), and known as “George” by the Allies, was one of the most formidable fighter aircraft to emerge from Japan during the Second World War. Read More: Grumman X-29 – The Backward Wing Plane The N1K’s inception was marked by a departure from traditional design practices, reflecting the rapidly evolving demands of aerial warfare. The origins of the N1K can be traced back to a 1940 IJN requirement for a floatplane fighter, resulting in the development of the N1K1 “Kyofu,” or “Mighty Wind.” As the Pacific War’s naval battles shifted towards carrier operations, the IJN realized that an interceptor version of the Kyofu, capable of land and carrier-based operation, would be beneficial. Thus, the N1K1-J Shiden was born. The Kawanishi N1K1-J Shiden was a land-based adaptation of the original N1K1 floatplane. It was a robust, mid-wing monoplane design, powered by a 1,990 horsepower Nakajima Homare 21 radial engine. The Homare, which means “pride” or “honour” in Japanese, was a two-row, 18-cylinder air-cooled radial engine. The engine was a product of the Nakajima Aircraft Company, a major producer of aircraft and aero engines for the Japanese military during the war. The Homare was an evolution of the earlier Nakajima Sakae, the engine that powered the famous Mitsubishi A6M Zero fighter. The Homare 21 had a displacement of around 2,000 cubic inches (about 35 litres), and was designed to be compact and powerful, but it had a relatively high fuel consumption rate, which was a drawback in extended combat operations. The engine was also prone to reliability issues, especially later in the war when manufacturing quality suffered due to resource shortages and the effects of Allied bombing. Despite these issues, the Homare was one of the most powerful Japanese aero engines of the war and was used on a number of aircraft types. Not only was it the powerplant for the Kawanishi N1K “Shiden”, but also the Nakajima Ki-84 “Hayate” (Gale), both formidable fighters that were well-regarded by their pilots and respected by their adversaries. Its armament consisted of four 20mm cannons, two in the wings and two in the fuselage, providing a powerful punch. Despite being referred to as a machine gun, the Type 99 Mark 2 is better described as an autocannon, as it fired larger, explosive rounds, unlike typical machine guns which fire smaller, solid bullets. The name “Type 99” derives from the Japanese imperial year of its formal adoption – 2599 in the traditional Japanese calendar, or 1939 in the Western calendar. The Type 99 Mark 2 fired a 20mm round and was derived from the Swiss Oerlikon FF cannon, a design which the Japanese Navy had licensed in the 1930s. It was used in a number of Japanese aircraft during the war, including the Mitsubishi A6M Zero and the Kawanishi N1K. The cannon had a rate of fire of approximately 520 rounds per minute and a muzzle velocity of 750 m/s (2460 ft/s). These characteristics, combined with the explosive power of its ammunition, made the Type 99 Mark 2 a formidable weapon against Allied aircraft. Despite this, there were some reported reliability issues with the Type 99, particularly as the quality of Japanese manufacturing declined in the later years of the war. The feed mechanism was complex and could cause stoppages, and the weapon’s effectiveness was also heavily dependent on the quality of its ammunition, which varied during the war. Overall, the weapon was a significant part of Japan’s air arsenal during World War II and played a major role in the air battles of the Pacific. Another of the distinctive features of the N1K was its automatic combat flaps. These flaps adjusted themselves during manoeuvres, improving the aircraft’s turning ability and making it a formidable opponent in a dogfight. The Shiden had its challenges, though. It was relatively heavy and complex for a

Rebels in Ukraine have ousted an international task force of doctors in the country’s wartorn east, denying thousands of civilians urgent medical care. The self-proclaimed Donetsk People’s Republic has blacklisted Médecins sans Frontières, who said rebel chiefs gave no reason for the ban. Bart Janssens, MSF’s director of operations, warned that the ruling is likely to lead to the deaths of patients and urged the rebels to reconsider. “As a medical organisation we ethically cannot accept being forced to abandon our patients,” he said. Medics with the NGO have treated Ukrainian civilians wounded in the war as well as patients with chronic and potentially fatal illnesses including tuberculosis, diabetes and kidney disease. The group supplies more than 75% of insulin in the DPR and almost all its dialysis equipment. MSF treats around 150 prisoners in the DPR who suffer from drug-resistant tuberculosis. “There is a huge risk that the health of these patients will deteriorate soon,” Janssens said, warning that an interruption to their treatment “will lead to a major risk to public health”. While a new ceasefire holds, Ukraine’s restive east remains in the grip of a humanitarian crisis, at risk of deteriorating with the onset of winter. The conflict has claimed more than 8,000 lives and injured many thousands more since fighting broke out between government troops and pro-Russian rebels last year. Many doctors and nurses have fled the worst-affected areas and pharmacies are empty. Since the outbreak of war, MSF has donated medication and equipment to 170 medical facilities across the embattled region and conducted more than 85,000 consultations since March. The ban is the latest setback for MSF, which has been working in eastern Ukraine since 2011 and working on both sides of the conflict since May 2014. This month its medical workers watched in horror as patients were burned alive after a botched US airstrike on a hospital in Kunduz, Afghanistan. In September, the organisation was among 10 Western NGOs to be ousted by Ukraine’s rebel-held Luhansk region. In a statement, a spokesperson for the group said: “MSF has up until now coordinated all its activities with the authorities and is willing to continue this collaboration for the sake of the health of thousands of vulnerable citizens of DPR.” According to MSF, the organisation received a written notice from Donetsk’s Humanitarian Committee on 19 October asking it to stop its activities and saying its accreditation had been withdrawn. Details of the ban only began to emerge on Friday. A DPR representative told AFP: “I can confirm the decision to strip accreditation.” The International Committee of the Red Cross and the Czech Republic’s People in Need remain working in the region, according to the rebels. At the time of publication, the rebel’s central media office had not responded to the Guardian’s requests for comment on why the ban was implemented and how authorities will meet the needs of the civilians formerly helped by MSF.

Disturbance observer is significantly becoming the preferred approach since it offers distinct advantages of improving robustness of the force control and accuracy of the force estimation. Current and velocity information are the reference inputs of the disturbance observer whereas the external force estimation is the output. Generally, velocity information without noise effects can be calculated by using low-pass filter but the bandwidth of the data is limited. To obtain wide bandwidth of force sensing with low noise, we have utilized the Kalman filter technique to estimate the motor velocity with the measured data from both linear encoders and acceleration sensors. Through the combination of the linear encoder with an acceleration sensor measurement, a velocity reference containing improved bandwidth can be achieved. This paper will demonstrate that Kalman-filter-based disturbance observer as applied to bilateral control system can provide wide bandwidth superior to the conventional one. In order to ensure the improvements of the proposed method, some experimental results of bilateral control is confirmed theoretically.

U.S. shale oil coming to the market is not a concern, Saudi Energy Minister Khalid al-Falih said on Thursday, adding that demand will absorb it. “Shale coming in and happening again in 2018 doesn’t bother me at all. The market can absorb it,” he said, speaking at an energy forum in Moscow. Falih said oil demand was healthy around the world, and there was a steady reduction in global oil inventories. The rebalancing of oil inventories is well under way, he said. The recovery in oil markets has helped other commodities, he added.

Part Italian, part German and criticized for taking Jewish money... in New York?Mike Grimm, a Republican candidate for the congressional seat currently occupied by Democrat Mike McMahon (pictured), representing parts of Brooklyn and Staten Island (New York) has come under criticism from McMahon for taking money from Jewish sources (Hat Tip: GWBROS). Mike Grimm, a G.O.P challenger for Mike McMahon's Congressional seat, took in over $200,000 in his last filing.Allahpundit has some free advice for McMahon (via The Weekly Standard): But in an effort to show that Grimm lacks support among voters in the district, which covers Staten Island and parts of Brooklyn, the McMahon campaign compiled a list of Jewish donors to Grimm and provided it to The Politicker. The file, labeled "Grimm Jewish Money Q2," for the second quarter fundraising period, shows a list of over 80 names, a half-dozen of which in fact do hail from Staten Island, and a handful of others that list Brooklyn as home. "Where is Grimm's money coming from," said Jennifer Nelson, McMahon's campaign spokeman. "There is a lot of Jewish money, a lot of money from people in Florida and Manhattan, retirees." As a point of comparison, the campaign also provided in-district and out-of-district fundraising totals from McMahon and Grimm's G.O.P primary opponent, Michael Allegretti. However, they did not provide an out-of-district campaign filing from Grimm, but only a file of Jewish donors to him. Nelson said that the list was compiled by the campaign's finance director, Debra Solomon and that she did not know exactly how the finance team knew who was Jewish and who was not. "She herself is Jewish so she knows a lot of people in that community," Nelson said. Nelson stressed that the point of compiling the list was not to show that Grimm had a lot of Jewish support, but that he had little support in the district. "I don't think ethnicity matters. When people look at who is funding his campaign it's not people who have a direct vested interest [in the district.]" When making a charge like this in polite company, the proper terminology these days is “Zionist money.” Wink.Allahpundit also notes that Sarah Palin endorsed Grimm a few days ago. Politico reports that McMahon has apologized and has fired Nelson but not Solomon. By the way, New York's 13th district has voted Republican in the last two Presidential elections. Looks like low-hanging fruit for Republicans to me. Much more here. THE TELEGRAPH: Israel has carried out air strikes on targets in Gaza after militants in the territory fired a rocket into the Jewish city of Ashkelon, the first such attack in more than a year. Late on Friday, aircraft shot at least four missiles at buildings used by Hamas security forces in Gaza City, wounding eight, medics said. Warplanes also hit smuggling tunnels on the border with Egypt, without causing casualties, witnesses said. Palestinians reported several explosions in Gaza City and Israeli aircraft could be heard flying over the territory. There were no immediate reports of injuries. The earlier rocket attack, seen by some observers as an attempt to undermine the possible resumption of direct peace talks between Israel and the Palestinian Authority, marked a significant escalation in the attritional campaign Islamist groups based in Gaza have waged on Israeli civilians living nearby. It came a day after Arab foreign ministers meeting in Cairo told Mahmoud Abbas, the Palestinian leader, that they would not stand in his way if he decided to talk to Israel face-to-face. >>> Adrian Blomfield in Jerusalem | Friday, July 30, 2010 Zion bashers and the criminal element at Astor Courts Estate.

Beautifully Different – Jillian A Project Celebrating Differences and Triumphs Jillian is Beautifully Different Meet Jillian. This amazing girl is your typical amazing 11 year old girl, in almost every way. However, in May of 2017, Jillian was diagnosed with Epilepsy. Epilepsy is a chronic neurological disorder in which the normal chemical and electrical activities between nerve cells in the brain (neurons) become disturbed. This disturbance causes the neurons to fire abnormally, causing seizures. In a seizure, many neurons fire at the same time, much faster than usual, up to 500 times a second. Over a lifetime, 1 in 26 people will develop epilepsy at sometime in their life. Jillian is 1 in 26, and Jillian is Beautifully Different! Last May, Jillian had a seizure after a soccer game, then she had another seizure after basketball camp a week later. She went through many tests and was finally diagnosed with epilepsy. Her doctors have struggled to find any medicine that can control the seizures. She has had to miss countless sports practices and games and is struggling in school. Also, Jillian has had auras almost daily. An aura is a feeling, experience, or movement that just seems different. It can also be a warning that a seizure is going to happen. Sweet. Warrior. Energetic. Jillian lives to play sports! She has always wanted to be a professional soccer player when she grows up! However, her epilepsy has caused her to take a temporary step back from sports as she has had seizures during soccer practices, soccer games, and basketball games. She continues to amaze her family with her strength through all of the hospital stays, the millions of tests, the numerous seizures, and the drastic change this has made in her life! She is their epilepsy warrior!!!!

With a week left before the District of Columbia’s Democratic mayoral primary, Mayor Vincent Gray has more money left to spend than any of his rivals. Planned changes to the Republican Party’s presidential selection process are part of a rebuilding process that will strengthen the GOP brand and hopefully make its presidential nominee more competitive in 2016, Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus told California Republicans on Friday, calling the GOP’s current primary process “a complete disaster.” McConnell tells Fox’s Neil Cavuto his earlier criticism was aimed at he group challenging him in next year’s primary. The chairwoman of the Maryland Republican Party says a panel has been formed to explore the idea of allowing unaffiliated voters to participate in GOP primaries in the state. The chairman of the D.C. Council wants to push back the date of the primary that’s likely to decide the city’s next mayor. The Virginia Senate has approved a bill that would cut in half the number of signatures presidential candidates in Virginia would have to submit to qualify for the state’s primary ballot. Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker beat back a recall challenge Tuesday, winning both the right to finish his term and a voter endorsement of his strategy to curb state spending, which included the explosive measure that eliminated union rights for most public workers. Presumed Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney is hoping for an endorsement from his party’s West Virginia primary voters, who must also select 28 delegates to August’s national convention in Tampa. Rick Santorum is as unpopular in Pennsylvania today as he was six years ago when home-state voters kicked him out of the Senate in a rout. That sour public perception may doom his fading chances of sticking around in the GOP presidential race, along with other hurdles that dot his path to a possible, and needed, victory in the April 24 primary. Mitt Romney’s Super Tuesday victories elicited a collective yawn from his party’s superdelegates.

Posted: July 28, 2010 It seems that the attacks on corn commodities and corn ethanol will never stop. In a new report released last week called Green Scissors 2010, Friends of the Earth (aka FOE, how apropos) is calling for an end to subsidies in several areas including agriculture, biofuels, energy, infrastructure, and public lands. Many of the recommendations of this report cut into corn ethanol from various angles. First, FOE calls for an end of government subsidies for commodity crops including corn. Next, they call for an end of ethanol subsidies, specifically the ethanol tax credit (VEETC) and the ethanol tariff. They do, however, acknowledge that the subsidies directly go to oil but indirectly help the ethanol and agricultural industry. They write on their website, “Tens of billions of dollars of taxpayer money has already been wasted under the credit [VEETC]. And these funds do little more than to further line the coffers of the oil industry. This coalition is working to prevent an additional 30 billion plus dollars from being lavished on the industry to fulfill a legally mandated requirement to blend an environmentally harmful fuel into another environmentally harmful one.” They argue that eliminating commodity crop subsidies by 50 percent could save taxpayers more than $26 billion over the next five years. They also argue that eliminating VEETC could save the U.S. Treasury as much as $5.4 billion in 2011. If attacking the subsidy issue isn’t enough, they also attacked corn and corn ethanol on multiple environmental fronts including water quality (Dead Zone and hypoxia) as well as the ‘major’ amount of land that must be used to grow the crops. They go so far in the report to accuse corn-ethanol as being a bigger environmental offender than petroleum. Corn ethanol may not be perfect, but I can’t stomach the false accusation that corn ethanol is environmentally worse than petroleum. But maybe the most frustrating thing is that not only is Friends of the Earth uneducated about agriculture and the corn ethanol industry, they don’t want to be. And in a world that is so “concerned” about the environment, FOE’s refusal to be open to non-fossil fuel options is a disservice to the American public.

Welcome to the Secret Coast Radio podcast broadcasting somewhere on the Secret Coast Let us begin by saying: We prefer the first person plural over the singular. We prefer mystery over journalism, but also facts over conspiracies. We prefer not “getting back to the way we were” because that way was killing the planet, degrading our minds and corrupting our souls. We prefer writing erotica to writing lies and watching ospreys over seeing clearcuts. We prefer flying with our minds to the peaks of majestic mountains than flying in airplane to Nepal to climb Mt Everest. There is no point to climbing Mt. Everest. There never was. Human hubris, that is all. We prefer natural RAIN over human REIGN. Just how many boats can you water ski behind? It’s the only question worth asking in America these days. We prefer communing with our chipmunk friends over taking communion. We prefer the word obtuse over optics. We prefer governors who actually govern on behalf of all their constituents in times of crisis, and well all the time, over governing strictly on behalf of corporations and Chambers of Commerce. We prefer bailing out rock and roll bands over airlines. We wonder how the debasement of human beings on television shows became prime entertainment in America? What is this podcast about? Who are we? Like we said, mystery over journalism. Let show number 20 begin. The link to the show is:

The residents of Kanga-Metta community in the Ilorin East local government area of Kwara State have made a passionate appeal to the Governor, AbdulRahman AbdulRasaq, to as a matter of urgency come to their aid over perennial flooding which has caused gully erosion that has made the only road in the area impassable. The community made the appeal in Ilorin on Tuesday through their Secretary, Muritala Yero, who led some community members to PUNCH office in Ilorin. Speaking on the challenges faced by the community, Yero said that the only road serving the community has become a death trap as a result of the gully erosion caused by flooding whenever it rained. He explained that the road has become impassable for the people of the community as well as visitors and traders who come to transact business in the area. “It is always difficult for people to move to the community during each downpour,” Yero lamented. He recalled that erosion had in the past washed away some houses while children were trapped in the gully anytime there was downpour in the area. The secretary said, “Erosion has flooded many schools and residential buildings that were close to the road paths. The gully has crippled the socio-economic life in the community as many residents have fled the community to other developed areas of the state.”

Julie L. J. Koehler, Shandi Lynne Wagner, Anne E. Duggan, and Adrion Dula’s Women Writing Wonder: An Anthology of Subversive Nineteenth-Century British, French, and German Fairy Tales Popular understanding of the history of the European fairy tale begins with canonical authors like Charles Perrault (late seventeenth to early eighteenth century) and the Brothers Grimm (early nineteenth century), then proceeds to the twentieth-century Walt Disney films, and ends with feminist revisionist fairy tales written by women authors in the past fifty years. Even in fairy-tale scholarship, it has been hard to shake the narrative that male authors established the conservative fairy-tale canon and then female authors beginning in the late twentieth century subverted that canon with revisions that sought to expose and remedy the sexism of classic fairy tales. This narrative has been complicated by robust scholarship on the role of the conteuses—French women writers who were Perrault’s contemporaries and just as important as he in establishing the literary fairy tale. As a result, discussions of the role of women in the production of fairy tales have ended up jumping from the seventeenth/eighteenth-century conteuses to late-twentieth-century writers like Angela Carter, without much in between. Were women writing fairy tales during the intervening years? Women Writing Wonder answers this question with a resounding “yes.” This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivatives 4.0 International License.

With completion of the Silvaco acquisition of SOC Solutions, Electronic System Design sat down with the principals from each company to talk about the future. By John Blyler, Editor-in-Chief … to combine our (processor) subsystems with CAN-FD and FlexRay to service the automotive market. … our IP Fingerprinting … targeted towards … concerns about (compliance). … this will eventually lead to the “Arduino” type solutions that will fuel the IoT industry and others. … We may be on the forefront of the next evolution of deliverables that will be expected with IP. To grow, traditional EDA tools and IP suppliers must embrace the larger electronic systems market. This is nothing new to Jim Bruister, CEO at SOC Solutions (now part of Silvaco). He has frequently commented on the need to adapt the semiconductor IP industry to ensure it will be successful in the larger IOT system and embedded spaces. (See, “How can the Chip Community Improve the Industry for IOT Designers?”) Embracing the larger system perspective is just one of the reasons why the Silvaco acquisition of SOC Solutions is important. To understand why, JB Systems talked with Warren Savage, General Manager of IP at Silvaco, and Jim Bruister, CEO of SoC Solutions. What follows is a slightly edited version of their responses. – JB Blyler: How will SOC Solutions complement Silvaco in the IP space? Bruister: One way is with a lot of IP, especially for AMBA infrastructure. We’ve been providing ARM Cortex-M0/M3/A5 AHB and AXI subsystems for many years – both off-the-shelf and customized subsystems. Many IP engagements now require a system level hardware-software approach from the IP supplier and the IP user alike, which we provide. Additionally, we (SOC Solutions) bring several popular cores to Silvaco, e.g., QSPI, Serial Flash Controllers, AES encryption/decryption, DMA controllers, I2C, SPI, SPI bridges, LCD controllers and more. Savage: Systems level thinking has become a big factor in the IP world. SoC Solution’s infrastructure IP plus their knowledge of how to put together both hardware and software subsystems fits very well into what customers want. A minimal overlap of products between the two companies also helps. Blyler: What markets will be opened up? Bruister: The combination of existing products from both companies will open up markets in automotive, industrial, IoT and perhaps medical industries. For example, we intend to combine our Cortex-M0/M3 (or other CPUs such as ColdFire) subsystem with CAN-FD and FlexRay to service the automotive market with an automotive platform. Similarly, we will provide a sensor platform that contains a M0/M3/Coldfire subsystem with Silvaco’s I3C core to service the smart sensor market. Savage: I don’t know about “opening up” markets, but there is a natural shift in the IP industry to align specific products and services that help customers in vertical markets. However, I will say that in the previous IPextreme/Silvaco IP world, we didn’t have the expertise to provide serious consulting and custom products like we have with SoC Solutions. Instead of turning away that business, we can offer something now to customers that need it. Blyler: In past articles, Jim Bruister has said that IOT chip design must be done differently in the future. Will this acquisition help in that effort? Bruister: I believe so. Silvaco has historically been an EDA company with many physical design and analysis tools-libraries. That will be combined with our (SOC Solution) IP and product base to provide a “one-stop-shop” whole chip solution. The best example of this is how we support today’s “Smart Designs” in which more and more digital CPU based systems are added to custom analog to produce smart-sensors, smart-rf, and smart-IoT devices. Savage: Jim is right: A large amount of the Silvaco customer base is BigA – SmallD, which is in contrast to the IPextreme/SoC customer base. We are seeing the opportunity now with IOT customers to outsource the entire digital portion of the chip, rather than investing in a new digital team, tools, etc. Blyler: Security has become a critical element in IP reuse. Will the acquisition help protect IP? Warren: SoC Solutions was already a supporter of our IP Fingerprinting technology which is more targeted towards companies that have weak internal controls and are concerned about the liability associated with being out of compliance. It really doesn’t protect against people that want to steal your IP. Blyler: What will the future

We present a slope-assisted BOTDA system based on the vector stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) and frequency-agile technique (FAT) for the wide-strain-range dynamic measurement. A dimensionless coefficient K defined as the ratio of Brillouin phase-shift to gain is employed to demodulate the strain of the fiber, and it is immune to the power fluctuation of pump pulse and has a linear relation of the frequency detuning for the continuous pump and Stokes waves. For a 30ns-square pump pulse, the available frequency span of the K spectrum can reach up to 200MHz, which is larger than fourfold of 48MHz-linewidth of Brillouin gain spectrum. For a single-slope assisted BOTDA, dynamic strain measurement with the maximum strain of 2467.4με and the vibration frequency components of 10.44Hz and 20.94Hz is obtained. For a multi-slope-assisted BOTDA, dynamic measurement with the strain variation up to 5372.9με and the vibration frequency components of 5.58Hz and 11.14Hz is achieved by using FAT to extend the strain range. © 2017 Optical Society of America Distributed optical fiber sensor systems based on Brillouin scattering have been extensively studied and discussed for structural health monitoring in diverse fields over the past two decades [1, 2], because they have the capacity for measuring the distributed strain and temperature. Brillouin scattering is generated as a result of the refractive index variations induced by the thermal motion of molecules inside the fiber creating sound-frequency waves (i.e. acoustic phonons), which can scatter incident light with a Doppler frequency shift in the order of 10GHz for a standard single-mode fiber. Up to now, several schemes to obtain distributed strain/temperature have been implemented in the correlation-domain [3–8], the frequency-domain [9–12] and the time-domain [13–25]. Among them the Brillouin optical time-domain analysis (BOTDA) has drawn great interest due to its high spatial resolution [16, 23, 26–28] and the long sensing range [17, 21, 29, 30]. The basic approach of the classical BOTDA is based on the pump-probe regime that a high-frequency pump pulse and a counter-propagating continuous probe wave with the low-frequency are injected into the fiber. When the frequency difference between pump and probe is equal to the Brillouin frequency shift (BFS) of the fiber, the energy transfer from the high-power pump to the probe wave occurs due to the stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS). The BFS along the fiber, which is in linear relation to the strain or temperature, can be obtained by frequency-sweeping the probe wave and then the Lorentzian or Gaussian fitting the Brillouin gain spectrum (BGS) [28, 31, 32]. Nevertheless, the dynamic measurement of BOTDA systems is restricted by the process speed of the frequency-sweeping and the curve fitting. Recently, dynamic measurement based on BOTDA has become a hot topic. On one hand, a fast BOTDA (F-BOTDA) system is proposed to quickly reconstruct the BGS, in which 100 sweeping-frequency segments of probe wave are temporal-cascaded by a fast-switching arbitrary waveform generator (AWG). Then, an improved F-BOTDA is developed by using the differential double pulses to obtain a high spatial resolution of 20cm and the second order sideband modulation to reduce the bandwidth requirement of the AWG. However, the demodulation of BFS through complex curve-fitting algorithms is also time-consuming and subsequently not suitable for real time on-line monitoring. On the other hand, a slope-assisted BOTDA (SA-BOTDA) for fast strain variations measurement is proposed by only single pump pulse and using a single-slope of the local Brillouin gain spectrum [35–38].The strain vibration frequency of this system is only determined by the fiber length and average number, but its maximum strain vibration range is limited to the narrow-slope of BGS (~30MHz for single-mode fiber). A double slope-assisted BOTDA is proposed to be immune to pump pulse power variations by using both side slopes of the BGS. Whereas, the maximum dynamic strain ranges of these schemes are still less than 1000με. A multi-slope assisted fast BOTDA is realized based on the double-slope demodulation and frequency-agile technique (FAT), which can extend the measurement range by adding the frequency segments number of probe wave. Meanwhile, different from the Brillouin gain-based BOTDA systems as mentioned above, several novel BOTDA systems which combine the Brillouin gain and phase-shift [41, 42] are employed to improve the system performance such as increasing the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and

Work is underway to improve thousands of homes across Salford as the first 400 properties are set to be revamped. The houses up for renovation in Ordsall and Weaste mark the beginning of a two year project which will see 2,200 homes undergo £22 million of improvements. They will have their kitchens, bathrooms, windows and doors improved, after Salford Council transferred 8,500 properties to Salix Homes. Mark Foster, head of investment at Salix Homes, said: “We promised our tenants if we transferred we would be able to carry out the improvements to their homes they so desperately need, so now we are delighted to be able to deliver our promises and announce the start of our investment programme, so soon after transfer. “This significant investment marks the beginning of our bold aspirations to transform and modernise homes and communities in this city, and we look forward to working alongside our partner contractors to ensure our tenants have the homes they deserve. “Salix Homes shares a vision with our tenants to create a modern, sustainable and fit-for purpose housing service of which we can all be proud and thanks to tenants voting to transfer their homes to us that vision is now becoming a reality.” John Gallagher, contracts director at Emanuel Whittaker, said: “We are very proud to be playing such a pivotal role in the regeneration of this area. Simon Harrison, managing director at A Connolly Ltd, added: “We are delighted to be working in partnership with Salix Homes to deliver the planned investment programme improvements on the South Ordsall estate. The homes were formally transferred to the social housing provider in March after tenants voted in favour of the move. Over the next five years Salix Homes intends on investing £75 million in improving homes and communities across Salford, planning to meet the Government’s Decent Homes standard by 2020. Work on the Tootal Estate and South Ordsall is expected to be completed this autumn, when the next phase of improvement work will begin.

Tuesday, June 15th, 1999 Sometimes, things can turn on a paradigm. I was thinking about this on my way down to the airport this morning on MARTA-the train cars had celebratory logos saying "20 years of bus and train service in Atlanta." And the scary thing is: I measure my tenure here by the arrival of those trains-we both hit town about the same time. When MARTA’s train stations opened, my friends and I rode the shiny new cars to the opposite ends of the East Line just because we could, and we bought in to the optimistic PR statements that said that rapid rail would revolutionize the city, would provide for a downtown that is living and vital, would clean up tartar between gums and teeth. Well, downtown’s tartar is still there, and although it’s a fine way of getting to the airport, the number of places I can travel to reasonably on the s’MARTA is fewer than the places I can’t. Atlanta remains a place where people travel one-per-car along clogged freewaysand there are plenty of folks outside 285 that look at their car (or SUV) as urban protection-a shield against interaction with outsiders. So I’m on the train, quite enjoyably passing south along old rail lines, and I’m thinking: how have other cities been able to bring mass transit to the fore? Is it simply a challenge for public relations and advertising (and if so, I can tell you right now that ‘It’s Smarta’ ain’t going to get people to park Jeep Cherokees.) No, in towns like Portland, Oregon the very idea of mass transit has been made as fashionable as the $2.49 corn and cilantro fritter at the Whole Foods Market. It’s fashionable there, and not only because the local mass transit authority does a good job. It’s fasionable because news anchors and people who write for weekly newspapers and other "media voices" talk about it in a positive, uplifting context-and as far as I can tell, they mean it. It fits their lives like a well-worn backpack. The words feel good tumbling out of their mouths. And this may well include way-overpaid TV folk who still climb into their Yuppie Scummobiles after the newscast is over-but their talk perpetuates the germ of an not-so-abstract idea. You can ride free downtown. People take the rail or buses to events because it’s part of the group experience (same thing in London, Paris, hell, even Boston.) It’s a great place to read and watch some of the world go by. Why can’t we say that here? Well, to some extent the fault lies, sure, with the MARTA authorities, for their general marketing cluelessness and their unwillingness to try programs like the free-ride-in-center-city thing. But they could have the best programs and a decent advertising campaign and the problem still would remain. So how do we turn this perception around? No, I’m not proposing mass hypnosis or mass hypocrisy, just something closer to visualizing whirled peas. Picture yourself enjoing a ride on MARTA, on the bus or on the train. Then do it. Then talk about it. Then enjoy the feeling of being a bit more connected to the city and its people. As I did this morning.

A good idea to take your project to a next level is to communicate with it online, instead of having the data displayed on a screen, you can check all the data on your phone or computer and interact with your PI from anywhere. The process is easy, it is a small python code, with a PHP script, and a server to host the communication. A brief description: we will start by writing the python code on the pi, let’s say we want to send a distance measured by an Ultrasonic sensor, we will write our normal code to measure the distance, and and then we will use a ‘socket’ to send the data to our server. A socket is one endpoint of a two-way communication link between two programs running on the network. A socket is bound to a port number so that the TCP layer can identify the application that data is destined to be sent to. The data will be concatenated with an HTTP address linked to the server, where this is the way our PHP script can read the data as an input. You can also check the code on Github. Here is the python code: [sourcecode language="python"][/sourcecode ] import RPi.GPIO as GPIO import socket //importing socket library import time import math GPIO.setmode(GPIO.BCM) host = "alawiya51.mypressonline.com" //hostname goes here port = 80 //setting the ultrasonic sensor pins TRIG = 23 ECHO = 24 print "Distance Measuremnet In Progress" GPIO.setup(TRIG, GPIO.OUT) GPIO.setup(ECHO, GPIO.IN) GPIO.output(TRIG, False) print "Waiting for Sensor to Settle" //Create a method to send the data def sendData(): s = socket.socket(socket.AF_INET, socket.SOCK_STREAM) //initiating a socket s.connect((host, port)) // connecting to the server time.sleep(2) GPIO.output(TRIG, True) time.sleep(0.00001) GPIO.output(TRIG, False) while GPIO.input(ECHO)==0: pulse_start = time.time() while GPIO.input(ECHO)==1: pulse_end = time.time() pulse_duration = pulse_end - pulse_start //measuring the time between both pulses distance = pulse_duration * 171.50 distance = round(distance,2) //calculating the distance request = "GET /insert.php?x=" + str(distance) + \ " HTTP/1.1\r\nHost: " + host + "\r\n\r\n" //writing the request s.send(request) //sending the request to the server request = "" print "Distance : ",distance, "m\n" while True: sendData(); time.sleep(60) //send the data to the server every minute done; GPIO.cleanup() The PHP script will only read the data embedded in the link when called, and it will be stored in a database we previously created. Here is the PHP code: [sourcecode language="php"] echo "Executing: insert.php"; $con= mysqli_connect('hostname', 'database_name', 'your_username', 'your_password'); $x = $_GET["x"]; echo " x = ".$x. ""; $sql ="INSERT INTO ultraValue (ultvalue) VALUES ('$x')"; mysqli_query($con, $sql); mysqli_close($con); echo " done";?>[/sourcecode ] I hope this was helpful, don’t hesitate to leave any question if you had any problem. Stay creative and talk to you in the next tutorial.

Everyone wants to be successful, that’s why we have different people all around the world engaged in one activity or the other, in a bid to not only survive but also thrive. Some people are thriving, while others are surviving, and lastly, there are those that are barely making it by through life daily. Life, as we have come to know is very hard, and we have to regularly look for inspiration and motivation to keep on going, because the possibility of achieving our dreams, is what makes the endeavour worth it. In this post we will look at success from the point of a tool I believe we all must have made use of at one point in our lives or the other – The Pencil. And I hope to draw some inspiration by analyzing some interesting facts about the pencil. The pencil just like anything object is made of certain constituents that make it relevant in today’s world as a tool for education and learning. We will explore those distinguishing factors, and how it can help us succeed We all know that the pencil which is a structurally simple tool is made up of a barrel, which is usually carved out of wood. The barrel is hollow and makes the majority of the pencil, and inside the barrel is the lead, the lead is the black component that we use in writing, it is what leaves a mark on the sheet of paper whenever we use the pencil. In the case of a pencil, the constant resharpening means the whenever the lead of the pencil becomes dull, or breaks, the pencil needs to be re-sharpened. If pencils have the ability to feel, I am certain that the sharpening process will be a painful experience, but the result speaks for itself. We too as humans must go through that sharpening process and this comes in form of painful experiences and challenges, which comes to us when we least expect them, and it our duty to respond to the challenges with courage in order to address them. This is what builds one’s character, and makes one a better person, pain and lack builds one up and make him tenacious. We can Erase our Mistakes One of the useful components of the pencil is its eraser, as it can help one erase mistakes and then we can use the pencil the write the wrong. Life can be like that too, although we can’t necessarily go back in time to right a wrong, what we can do is view our mistakes as lessons to learn from, and when we do this, then we have learnt from them and they become experiences we can apply later in the future when a similar scenario occurs again. Then we can say we’ve learnt from our mistake, we have erased that mistake we made earlier. Challenges come to us all, it is how we react to respond to these challenges that determine the quality of person that we are, and how far we can go in life. With this eraser concept in our minds, I believe it can help us view mistakes a little differently. Leave your mark Just like the pencil whenever you use the pencil to write, it leaves behind a mark, you too should do the same thing. Wherever you are, and whatever you do, always strive to achieve excellence, because then and only then you can leave a strong mark that will be positively remembered. Leaving a mark can also be in a negative light, for example, Adolf Hitler is known around the world, but he is known for genocide, which is in a negative light. So we should endeavour to leave a positive mark in the world we live in, just like the pencil. Lastly, no matter what you do, and where you go, always remember that the most important part of you is what lies inside of you

As the thermometers drop into a minus figure and the frost starts to hit the cars, the UK retail industry can breathe a sigh of relief at the rarity of a season arriving on time for a change. A cold snap at the end of November can only mean droves of eager shoppers heading out for their first wave of winter wardrobe shopping in what has been one of the world’s most eventful years both in terms of fashion and politics. 2016 saw the worlds of fashion and politics colliding, often times with a bit of forward thinking irony as in the case of Karl Lagerfeld’s Cruise 2017 collection hosted in the now Westward-looking Cuba. The coincidental passing of Fidel Castro in November will certainly set the stage for fundamental changes for not only the island community but for the entire region. Fashion as a whole was turned on its ear with movements like never before between many of the major fashion brands. Whether it was Hedi Slimane, Mari Grazia Chiurri, John Galliano or Raf Simons, 2016 was certainly the year of change. If that was the case this year, then what for 2017? Are we to see major brand over-halls? Could we even see the biggest, most established creative directors moving away from their current roles? With continued digital momentum, an even stronger call to fortifying brand’s heritage and craftsmanship core values, the role of the creative director has evolved more from a media-driven rock star to a veritable fashion Head of State. One must question whether the political events of 2016 will have an influence on how the luxury industry will shape and form in the years to come. Fashion’s two most defining moments of 2016, however, were undoubtedly the UK’s bold move to distance itself from the European financial and diplomatic front with the controversial Brexit referendum and more recently the American election of Donald J. Trump as President of the United States. The fashion and retail industry stood firmly in the remaining camp only to find that they would be facing a world with Britain as a part player in the European political scene. However, with markets rebounding and the pound starting to rally even the most radical of remainers will be starting to see a potential light not too far in the distance. Certainly, the tills across the UK will be celebrating the situation when the coffers are counted. Record numbers were being achieved by major retailers following Brexit which saw the pound fall to levels not seen for a long time, this combined with the unfortunate events in Paris earlier in the year has brought a huge increase in foreign shopping tourists to London and lit up the faces on many Retail Directors faces. We also woke up in 2016 to the news of Donald Trump in the US, who fought a bitter and aggressive campaign battle against Secretary Hillary Clinton, winning his seat as President -Elect and soon to be President of the free world. His first 100 days will be the first indicator of what campaign promises will be upheld. And though, like Brexit, his presidency has already been riddled with controversy, if his views on spending take a foothold, the American economy, and particular the luxury goods sector could benefit from what has been already considered the most radical of political moves of our times.

One of our pullets seems to have internal swelling. She finished molting within the last month but has not resumed laying. Her weight is good and she is eating and drinking. Although this pullet is traditionally a loner, for the past 4 nights she has not jumped up onto the roost to sleep with the other girls. She sleeps on the floor. When I put her on the roost this evening, she was clumsy and had trouble keeping her balance fore & aft. Afraid that she might hurt herself in the morning when she jumps down, I set her back on the floor. The swelling is below the vent and it's uniform - no indication of a specific area of swelling - her entire underside in the back is swollen. My husband tried to check her vent to see if she's got an egg lodged but she wouldn't have anything to do with that. She is 2.5 years old. Any hints or experience with this is appreciated. Thank you.

USA: Mandatory plastic bag recycling bill prefiled in Louisiana State Legislature A new bill (SB 408) would require stores in Louisiana to implement in-store plastic carryout bag recycling programs. The bill requires stores to provide bag collection bins in visible and easily accessible locations. A final provision in the bill states, that the regulation of plastic bags is preempted by this Section. No municipality, parish, or local government entity, shall enact ordinances, law, or regulations regarding plastic carryout bags that in any way affect the recycling of plastic carryout bags, including but not limited to bans or fees. The bill was provisionally referred to the Committee on Environmental Quality (Recycling Laws International, 28 February 2014). Click here for SB 408. This item is also included in our monthly overview, the NVC Members-only Update. If you have any questions, please contact us: email@example.com, +31-(0)182-512411.

THE RNLI has awarded a major contract as part of its £11.2m project to build a new lifeboat centre in Poole. Docking Solutions has been appointed to design, manufacture and build the galvanised steel pontoons and aluminium access structures at the facility. The pontoons run for a total length of 70 metres on Poole’s North Quay and 40 metres at West Quay. Each pontoon is up to 23m long and 3.5m wide and they rise and fall with the tide, together with access bankseats, 18m-long ramps and nine metre long steps. The RNLI has a fleet of more than 340 lifeboats, ranging from 3.8m to 17m, and its 20-year strategy requires it to build six all-weather lifeboats a year, as well as maintaining its existing fleet. Its new station at Poole is aimed at saving the charity millions of pounds by bringing boat production in-house. The project – called Coventina – involves the demolition of the existing lifeboat maintenance centre as well as building of the new shipyard and lifeboat centre. Docking Solutions, based at Totnes in Devon, produces bespoke pontoons, bridges and access systems. Will Robertson, contracts manager at Docking Solutions, said: “Our work involves major projects all over the country. We are delighted to be asked to supply these unique pontoons and access systems which will enhance the facilities at the RNLI’s construction facility.” The building is expected to open next year and be making lifeboats by 2019. The RNLI says the pool of suppliers which can meet its needs has reduced dramatically as the technology involved in building lifeboats has advanced. Its website says: “We must act now to safeguard the future of all-weather lifeboat production and the RNLI’s future in saving lives at sea.”
