Genetic data is often overlooked and geneticists are rarely at the top of the marine planning party guest list. This results in a significant gap in the protection of evolutionary processes, that are essential for the long-term survival species in the face of environmental change. Genetic tools provide unique information useful for marine protection in a way that complements other approaches, such as satellite tracks and habitat mapping.
So why isn’t genetics being systematically used in marine spatial protection? Research suggests that genetic data is considered valuable by planners and policy-makers, but because it is generally dispersed, inaccessible, or misunderstood. | [

Mountain Biking Highlight
Krasser and beautiful hill at the same time. Not far from the Rosentalpond and the suspension bridge you will find the Rosental hill. You can climb it on the hiking and mountain bike trail, which leads up like a serpentine. He has a great deal on the slopes, where you should take good care of the bike! At the top you have a great view. Another view is from the observation tower, which is located on the hill. One should be free from giddiness to climb the steel construction. The tower swings slightly, which is why it is also called Wackelturm.

Losing a loved one is an unimaginable and heart-wrenching experience that can shatter our world, leaving us with grief and questions that seem insurmountable. In these dark moments, finding solace and regaining trust in a higher power can be a daunting task.
However, it’s precisely during these times that trusting God becomes more crucial than ever. In this comprehensive guide, we’ll explore how to restart trusting God after losing a loved one.
Through prayer, community, scripture, and various spiritual practices, we’ll discover ways to navigate the turbulent waters of grief with compassion, faith, and hope. Join us on this journey towards healing and renewed trust.
How to Restart Trusting God After Losing a Loved One
Losing a loved one can test our faith in profound ways, leaving us feeling adrift in a sea of grief and uncertainty. In these challenging moments, finding a way to rebuild trust in God is a deeply personal journey. Here, we delve into practical steps that can help you reignite your faith and navigate this difficult path towards healing and renewed trust.
#1. Prayer and Meditation
The power of prayer and meditation in times of grief cannot be overstated. It provides a sacred space for you to connect with a higher power, share your innermost thoughts, and seek solace. And so the journey to trusting God after losing a loved one can often start with a simple prayer for peace and comfort and meditation.
Transitioning from the initial shock of loss to a place of trust in God often begins with heartfelt conversations. Share your feelings, doubts, and pain with the divine. Allow these moments of vulnerability to bring you closer to God’s presence. In these quiet moments of communion, you may begin to feel the comforting embrace of a loving God.
Example: Try setting aside a specific time each day for prayer and meditation. Whether it’s in the morning as the sun rises or before bedtime, creating a routine can help anchor your spiritual practice.
#2. Seek Support from a Faith Community
Grief can make you feel isolated, but remember, you don’t have to go through it alone. Your faith community can be an essential source of support and companionship during this difficult journey.
Attend church services, join prayer groups, or participate in faith-based events within your community. Surrounding yourself with people who share your beliefs can provide a sense of belonging. These connections can not only help you rebuild trust in God but also offer the comfort of knowing you are not alone in your grief.
Example: Engage in discussions with fellow members of your faith community. Share your experiences, listen to others, and find comfort in the shared stories of faith and resilience.
#3. Read and Reflect on Scripture
Scripture holds a wealth of wisdom and solace for those grappling with loss. Take time to immerse yourself in religious texts that resonate with your situation. These sacred writings often contain stories of faith, resilience, and divine guidance. Remember, trusting God after losing a loved one can include reading His word.
As you read and reflect, consider how these stories relate to your own journey. What insights can you draw from them? Allow the teachings to penetrate your heart and mind, helping you find your own path to trusting God once more.
Example: If you’re Christian, explore passages like Psalms 34:18 and Matthew 5:4, which offer comfort to those who mourn. Other faiths also have their own sacred texts with similar comforting messages.
Sometimes, trusting God after losing a loved one needs catharsis – pouring out of your feelings in a safe and private way. That’s where Journaling can help.
Journaling is a powerful tool for processing complex emotions and thoughts. In the midst of grief, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed and disconnected from God. Writing in a journal can help bridge that gap.
Pour your thoughts, prayers, and feelings onto the pages of your journal. Express your doubts and fears, as well as moments of hope and gratitude. Over time, you may notice patterns emerging and a deeper connection forming as you navigate your spiritual journey.
Example: Create a dedicated journal for your spiritual reflections. Write not only about your grief but also about moments of grace or signs that restore your trust in God.
#5. Spiritual Guidance
Sometimes, we need guidance from someone who has walked a similar path or possesses deep spiritual insight. Consider seeking the counsel of a trusted spiritual leader or counselor. They can provide personalized support tailored to your unique needs.
These advisors can help you explore your doubts, fears, and questions about your faith. They can offer perspectives and wisdom that can be invaluable as you navigate the complexities of grief and the process of rebuilding trust in God.
Example: Schedule regular meetings with a spiritual advisor or counselor to discuss your spiritual journey. They can provide insights, suggest practices, and offer a listening | [

I have been working with Somos Amigos Medical Missions since 1997. My job is to make food for them, prepare meals every day. We have shared so much that now they feel like family. We have changed so much since they’ve been coming, from the medicine, the dialogue. Each time new people come, so now it is up to more than 700 volunteers. We get to know new and different people, not just from the United States, but also from China, Haiti, and many parts. And each day we are even more enthusiastic about continuing our work with this group. | [

Probably the best strike in the world: beer manufacturers in Denmark have gone on strike because their bosses have changed a rule that allowed them to drink as much beer as they liked throughout the working day. Under new regulations workers are now only allowed to drink at lunchtime.
“We were not consulted,” slurred a union spokesman before adding, “We have never had a problem with accidents or anything involving alcohol” and “I love you, you’re my best friend”.
It’s the principle of the thing I suppose. One day you can drink all the beer you want while you work, the next you can only drink all the beer you want at lunchtime. And did anyone discuss this draconian attempt to cut down on free beer and people constantly running to the toilet? Nope. They just went and did it.
‘Nurses rarely protect their “rights” to a lunch break or pay progression. They may quietly moan but ultimately they will absorb change rather than confront it’
It would be a bit like nurses being told that they were not allowed to take proper lunch breaks, or had to work bank holidays, or had to tolerate a pay freeze. Hard to imagine I know, but if that happened nurses would surely strike
like beer producers. Single minded in their outrage, determined to draw a line around what is acceptable and what is unacceptable. Boy, would there be a strike. Wouldn’t there? Wasn’t there?
Of course nurses rarely protect their “rights” to a lunch break or pay progression. They may quietly moan now and then, and I know some nurses who could win cynicism medals for Britain should cynicism ever find its way into the Olympics. But, ultimately, either nurses are too nice to confront any erosion in their working conditions, or they feel too deep a responsibility to the patients and services they work for to do anything other than absorb change rather than confront it.
So far this election campaign has been predictable and dull. Lots of name calling and some tub thumping. Maybe there isn’t much to choose between the self serving rabble that call themselves politicians. Maybe it’s hard to see what any of these people actually believe because they are so desperate for your vote. But underneath the posturing and the promises, there are one or two warnings that perhaps signal that something unnerving and even dark might be happening.
One of the proposals the Tories have made is to freeze public sector pay and claw back some of the deficit by making unspecified cuts. Meanwhile, they plan to give a £1.2bn inheritance tax cut to the richest 2 per cent in Britain and to end the 50p top rate of tax, giving another £2.4bn to the richest 1 per cent. They also plan to cut taxes on the pensions of the rich, which will hand them another £3.2bn. Essentially, while the responsible working people will be asked to absorb the difficulties of a messy economy, the richest - they are the blustery ones shouting loudly about their financial needs - will be presented with money for nothing.
I don’t have much time for any politicians. But servicing the undeserving rich at the expense of public services? That isn’t just bad politics - it is immoral. | [

PragmatIC, a manufacturer of ultra-low-cost flexible electronics, and Schreiner MediPharm, a provider of specialty labels for the pharmaceutical and medical device industry, have entered into a strategic partnership to add smart labels based on PragmatIC’s ConnectIC® family of flexible integrated circuits into Schreiner MediPharm’s product portfolio.
”PragmatIC’s unique solutions will enable us to add connectivity and intelligence to a much wider range of products than was previously possible”, said Dr Thomas Schweizer, President of Schreiner MediPharm. “We are developing innovative smart labels for packaging and multiple device types that will improve usability and safety for both patients and healthcare professionals.”
The use of RFID in the pharmaceutical industry offers a variety of applications through the assignment of a unique ID, which is practically non-reproducible. For instance, secure identification and traceability of individual products in devices and processes. But to date it mainly has been adopted only in high value use cases because of cost. The revolutionary ConnectIC devices deliver RFID solutions at the lowest cost point in the market, sweeping away the cost issue. In addition, FlexICs are ultra-thin and flexible, which makes them suitable for embedding into a wide range of substrates used for the innovative functional labels of Schreiner MediPharm.
“This partnership with Schreiner MediPharm highlights how our ground-breaking ConnectIC product line is set to accelerate the deployment of RFID-based digital solutions in the healthcare sector,” commented Scott White, CEO of PragmatIC. “We are really pleased to see adoption of our technology by leading global suppliers like Schreiner MediPharm and look forward to working closely with them to develop new use cases for their products.”

IBM's supercomputer Watson is due to star in the upcoming Jeopardy episodes in February, pitched against the two most successful Jeopardy players, Brad Rutter and Ken Jennings.
The bout between man and machine is due over a three-day span from Feb. 14 to 16, 2011. IBM supercomputer is named after its founder Thomas J. Watson. The bout is reminiscent of the 1997 chess match between IBM's computer Deep Blue and Russian chess champion Gary Kasparov.
IBM said: The Jeopardy! format provides the ultimate challenge because the game's clues involve analyzing subtle meaning, irony, riddles, and other complexities in which humans excel and computers traditionally do not.
The prize money will be donated by IBM to charity.
David Ferrucci, the scientist leading the IBM Research team that has created Watson, said: Beyond our excitement for the match itself, our team is very motivated by the possibilities that Watson's breakthrough computing capabilities hold for building a smarter planet and helping people in their business tasks and personal lives.
The supercomputer has the ability to sift through vast amounts of data and return precise answers, ranking its confidence in its answers.
The difference in Watson's approach is that regular QA systems like Ask.com can answer random questions like Who wrote 'Hamlet but answering What Globe Theater playwright wrote a tragedy about an indecisive Dane? is tough cookie for these systems. Thus Watson would be taking on such questions at Jeopardy.
Watson uses massively parallel distributed computing architecture. The supercomputer will face impediments like use of common language for queries, assessing sources it needs to tap to answer the question, assessing human reaction and assessing accuracy of answers three times and having a wide domain of knowledge cutting across various subjects.
The famed 1997 chess match between Deep Blue and Gary Kasparov was won by Deep Blue. The first game between the two was played in February 1996 which Kasparov won but he lost eventually in a re-match in 1997. | [

Maldives National Defence Force (MNDF) has called on seafarers to take precautions against the weather when travelling as rough seas and high winds are expected over the next few days.
MNDF revealed the Maritime Rescue Coordination Centre of the Coast Guard has received 5 reports of accidents at sea within the last 24 hours. As such, MNDF revealed a person has been reported missing from a vessel travelling to Mandhoo, Alifu Dhaalu Atoll, while another fishing vessel had capsized due to the rough weather, with 9 people on board.
Noting the bad weather is expected to persist over the next 24 hours, MNDF called on seafarers to get the latest information on the weather before beginning a trip and to ensure all safety precautions are taken on the vessels. In this regard, MNDF urged seafarers to ensure lifejackets, communication devices and drainage pumps are present and functioning on the vessel. Boats and vessels have also been asked not to load cargo beyond the capacity and to take special precautions when travelling at night.
Maldives Meteorological Service revealed widespread rain with occasional heavy showers and thunderstorms are expected over the country during the next 24 hours. Winds are expected to vary between northwest/northerly at 13-23 miles per hour in the central and northern atolls and at 8-18 miles per hour in south, while winds may gust to 45 miles per hour during showers. Meanwhile, seas are expected to be moderate becoming rough during showers in southern atolls and rough over the rest.
MNDF has requested seafarers to report any accidents at sea to its hotline 191. | [

Mental health, and specifically anxiety, is a growing problem significantly impacting the well-being of adolescents in the United States. Thirteen percent of adolescent’s experience anxiety-related disorders annually (Hill, Waite & Creswell, 2016; Peterson, 2018). School districts are critical settings in which to provide the prevention and intervention of anxiety (DeKruyf, Auger & Trice-Black, 2013; Domitrovich, Durlak, Staley & Weissberg, 2017; Lendrum, Humphrey, & Wigelsworth, 2013; Warner et al., 2016). Using transcendental phenomenology, this study drew on the lived experiences of math and language arts teachers to show their perceptions of their role with students experiencing anxiety along with their background knowledge of working with anxious students. High school teachers directly educate students on a daily basis and can support students experiencing anxiety. Understanding the relationship teachers have with anxious students is essential for their success. The purpose of this study was to discover the lived experiences of math and language arts teachers as they educate high school students in high-poverty rural schools affected by anxiety. By investigating teachers lived experiences, the beliefs, attitudes and needs regarding their support of anxious students was drawn out. The analysis found several themes woven throughout the interviews of all eight participants. Those themes included: (a) teachers perceived role, (b) relationship building, (c) finding balance, (d) the learning environment, (e) changes in the classroom, (f) background knowledge and training, and (g) positive perceptions of the school counselor.
The themes revealed relevant information for teachers, counselors, and school leaders as they consider the phenomenon of adolescent anxiety and the practical implications it has on student learning, the learning environment, and student well-being. The implications focus on teacher skill development along with building teacher social and emotional competency to foster positive relationships with students.

HOW TO END A MARRIAGE IN CALIFORNIA
There are three ways to end a marriage or domestic partnership in the state of California:
Legal Separation and
There is no need for both spouses or domestic partners agree to end the marriage. Only one party, spouse or partner can decide to end it. The other spouse cannot stop the process. The divorce will go through even if one spouse or partner does not participate. The other spouse/partner will still be able to get a “default” judgment.
California is a "No Fault" Divorce State.
If a divorce is filed because the spouse or partner did something wrong, it does not have to be proven. Qualification for a no fault divorce requires one spouse or domestic partner stating the couple cannot get along. “Irreconcilable Differences” is the legal term for this. Planning and preparation needs to start immediately when the decision is made to end a marriage or domestic partnership. Before you contact a lawyer, this is crucial and can save you time and money during the process.
There is no advantage by the court to the first person to file. Also, there is no disadvantage to the person who responds to the case, by the court. A bifurcation (divorce) needs to be filed as well for legal separation. It also needs to be filed for an annulment for registered partnership or domestic partnerships. In addition to other restrictions, a limited exception may be made for domestic partners to end their relationship in a summary process through the Secretary of State if they have been registered for less than five years and they have no children, no real property, very few assets or debts and a written agreement on dividing their property.
Effect of Divorce on Domestic Partnerships
Domestic partnerships are not recognized by federal law for most purposes such as Medicare, immigration law, veteran’s benefits and federal tax laws. Federal purposes such as Social Security for domestic partners may be recognized. The same rights may not be available for domestic partners if they leave the state of California because other states may not recognize the domestic partnership. Consult an experienced divorce attorney serving all of San Diego County if you are ending a domestic partnership and any of these issues apply to you.

If “Sex and The City” had a Gen-Z counterpart, it would be Netflix’s “Emily in Paris.” Set in the present, the show follows the life of 20-something social media marketer Emily Cooper, played by Lily Collins. Cooper gets a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to revitalize the social media channels for the Parisian luxury brands in her company’s portfolio. No biggie.
Plot aside, everyone is talking about the show because of Emily’s outfits, which are curated by costume designer Patricia Field (yes, the same Patricia Field who costume designed “Sexy and the City”).

History: Omi/HtrA2 is a proapoptotic mitochondrial serine protease involved with caspase-dependent cell apoptosis, translocating from mitochondria towards the cytosol after an apoptotic insult. interventions (by silencing RNA of Omi/HtrA2) had been used to review molecular mechanisms involved with sepsis-associated Omi/HtrA2 translocation, cell apoptosis and BBB dysfunction. BBB function was evaluated by trans-endothelial electric level of resistance (TEER) and permeability to tagged dextrans (FITC-4kDa). Tight junction (TJ) integrity was evaluated by immunofluorescence, traditional western blotting and transmitting electron microscopic (TEM) analyses. Apoptosis was determined using movement TUNEL and cytometry assay. Mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) and oxidative tension had been also investigated. Outcomes: LPS impacts hCMEC/D3 TJ permeability inside a focus- and time-dependent way. LPS treatment resulted in a substantial disruption of BBB, as manifested by reduced TEER (by ~26%) and a parallel improved paracellular permeability to FITC- (4kDa) dextrans through hCMEC/D3 monolayers. The inhibition of Omi/HtrA2 by Omi/HtrA2 or UCF-101 shRNA decreased LY9 LPS-induced mind endothelial cell apoptosis, and led to significant improvement on LPS-induced BBB disruption aswell as reduced occludin, claudin-5 and Bepridil hydrochloride ZO-1 expressions. Omi/HtrA2 manipulated endothelial cell apoptosis by moving into cytosol and inducing X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis proteins (XIAP) degradation. UCF-101 Omi/HtrA2 or administration shRNA treatment do attenuate the degradation of XIAP, Poly Bepridil hydrochloride ADP-ribose polymerase (PARP) cleavage, and caspase-3 cleavage. Nevertheless, only UCF-101 partially avoided the mobilization of Omi/HtrA2 through the mitochondria towards the cytosol after LPS treatment. That abrogation of Omi/HtrA2 by Omi/HtrA2 or UCF-101 shRNA led to a substantial improvement on LPS-induced loss of MMP. Oxidative tension was considerably improved in the LPS treated group compared to the control or NC-shRNA group. However, abrogation of Omi/HtrA2 by UCF-101 or Omi/HtrA2 shRNA did not significantly improve oxidative injury. Conclusions: Our study indicated an important role of Omi/HtrA2 in manipulating LPS-induced cell apoptosis and BBB integrity by translocating from mitochondria into cytosol in brain endothelial cells. Omi/HtrA2 induced mitochondrial pathway apoptosis, which involves inhibition of an important antiapoptotic protein XIAP and influence on MMP. Therapeutic methods that inhibit Omi/HtrA2 function may provide a novel therapeutic measure to septic encephalopathy. inhibiting both caspase-9 and caspase-3 activation (Vaux and Silke, 2003). Studies have demonstrated that besides cytochrome c and procaspases, mitochondria contain several other proapoptotic molecules that are released during apoptosis, including the Smac/DIABLO and the mitochondrial serine protease Omi/HtrA2, which bind to X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis protein (XIAP) and result in their displacement from activated caspases, thus promoting caspase-dependent apoptosis (van Loo et al., 2002; Vaux and Silke, 2003). Omi/HtrA2 is formed as a precursor that translocates to the mitochondria, and after an apoptotic insult is released to the cytosol. Unlike Smac/DIABLO, whose pro-apoptotic effect involved its physical binding with IAPs, Omi/HtrA2 induced apoptosis by its inhibition of IAPs protease activity and its own immediate binding with IAPs (Srinivasula et al., 2003; Yang Bepridil hydrochloride et al., 2003). Omi/HtrA2s comparative aftereffect of IAP binding weighed against serine protease activity of Bepridil hydrochloride continues to be unclear, which depends upon cell and stimulation types most likely. The protease activity of Omi/HtrA2 could be depressed with a selective inhibitor, UCF-101 (Cilenti et al., 2003). It’s been recommended that UCF-101 reduces apoptosis in lots of vitro and research (e.g., S-nitrosoglutathione induced apoptosis in human being endothelial cells (Liu et al., 2010). It turned out also proven that Omi/HtrA2-knockdown can shield cell from all sorts of apoptotic stimuli (Hegde et al., 2002; Martins et al., 2002). Furthermore, some research have demonstrated that more impressive range of Omi/HtrA2 distinctly advertised apoptosis (Martins et al., 2002; Cilenti et al., 2003). Our earlier research indicated pre-treatment with UCF | [

By Aaron Humes: The Belize Motor Vehicle Registration and Licensing System (BMVRALS) is soon coming on stream.
Developed with the support of the Republic of China (Taiwan), Minister of Transportation and NEMO Edmond Castro says Belize is now on par with our neighbors in being able to track drivers and vehicles coming in and out of Belize.
Castro hailed the level of technology being implemented to standardize systems countrywide and said it removes a potential embarrassment in international travel.
The system is part of the Transportation master plan adopted by Government last year.

The unshakable affection of a pet is one of life’s few rewards. Pets are a great addition to any family and can drastically change the dynamics. Before obtaining a pet, whether a cat or a dog, make sure you’re prepared for the additional responsibilities.
Animals need a lot of care, including feeding, grooming, keeping in place, training, and affection. With the new pet owner checklist, you can ensure you are prepared to welcome a non-human member of the family into your home. It will be impossible to contain your animal companion’s admiration for you.
1. Determine Dietary Requirements
Determine whether your pet has any unique nutritional requirements before adopting them. Some pets enter new homes overweight or afflicted with diabetes and thyroid problems. A customized diet can assist pets with certain conditions in losing weight and avoiding nutrient-related complications.
Find out which foods are best for your pet’s species when it is with you at home. All animals should have access to a clean water source during the day.
2. Routine Veterinary Examinations
Your pet’s health is your responsibility as a pet owner, including providing regular veterinary treatment.
Choosing a veterinary early on is the most important thing for your pet. The best action is to see a local vet for a post-adoption checkup with your pet.
The health of your pet depends on these quick examinations, which are inexpensive. When a problem arises, Orivet can provide remedies you can use at home to treat your animals.
3. Make a Budget
The more animals you own, the more you’ll need to worry about setting aside money for unexpected expenses and necessary pet supplies. Make a list or paper that includes all potential costs for your pet for proper planning.
4. Fun Play
Play can only cultivate and strengthen the link between you and your pet. In addition to giving your pet a constructive outlet for their energy, fun play enables you to develop a satisfying and positive relationship with your pets. When pets play, they are less likely to become bored, frustrated, or exhibit behavioral problems.
5. Nurture Your Pet
Pet training is a constant responsibility for pet owners, and training should be a part of your routine. Pets must be trained to know what to do because they do not have the innate ability to act as you would like to stimulate your pet’s mind and body.
Positive reinforcement training is a brain-stimulating enrichment exercise for pets and a fun approach to training them. You can develop routines that check your pet’s manners, such as making them sit before meals.
6. Groom Your Pet
Being a conscientious pet owner involves maintaining your pet’s grooming. Your pet’s health depends on how they are groomed, from their coat to their nails.
Pets should be bathed regularly using shampoos and conditioners formulated specifically for them, and veterinarians can demonstrate how to do it. The frequency of your pet’s baths depends on their skin and usual activities.
Make A Checklist for Your Pet Now
It is important to remember that pet ownership requires a lot of care and responsibility. With a vast range of genetic services, Orivet strives to improve the lives of pet owners and their pets by providing a wide range of genetic services. | [

Peter O'Toole was relatively unknown when he was cast as Lawrence of Arabia. Here he is having a goodbye chat at the airport with his wife, the Welsh actress Sian Philips, before leaving to work on the film.
O'Toole was 30 when he played Lawrence of Arabia, the hero of David Lean's Oscar-winning epic that thrust him into the superstar bracket in 1962.
Shot in the Jordanian desert, it was his fourth film. O'Toole, who won a scholarship to the Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts (Rada), said his career began "quite by chance... not out of burning ambition but because of all the wonderful looking birds".
The success of Lawrence of Arabia saw O'Toole feature alongside some of Hollywood's biggest stars. He filmed How to Steal a Million with Audrey Hepburn in 1965.
O'Toole won earlier acclaim for his role as Hamlet at the Bristol Old Vic in 1955. Here he sits in the dressing room before a National Theatre production of the play in London in 1963.
O'Toole had two daughters with Sian Philips, before the breakdown of their 16-year marriage in the 1970s. The decade also saw an end to his excessive drinking when he was diagnosed with pancreatitis.
He returned to the stage in a blaze of publicity in 1980 to play Shakespeare's Macbeth. Crowds flocked to see him, making it a great financial success, despite being panned by critics.
He was nominated for an Academy Award on eight occasions, most recently for Venus in 2007. But O'Toole did not take home an Oscar until 2003 - when the actress Meryl Streep presented him with an honorary lifetime achievement award.
After immortalising his handprints in cement at Grauman's Chinese Theatre in Los Angeles in 2011, he celebrated with his eldest daughter Kate and his son Lorcan, who was born in 1983 after he had a relationship with the US model Karen Somerville.
In his final years, O'Toole bowed out of acting, announcing in the summer of 2012 that "it was time to chuck in the sponge".
With a career spanning 50 years, tributes poured in following the death of O'Toole, whose agent said he was "one of a kind in the very best sense and a giant in his field". | [

Yeast infections in the vaginal regions can be very irritating and annoying for any woman, and the first thing that comes to mind after their growth is how to find a way to get rid of it.
One of the solutions you can make that can eat up the yeast overgrowth in the area is that of hydrogen peroxide with water, which has strong oxidation properties and can be really dangerous, if not used the right way. Here we shall identify the advantages attached to using hydrogen peroxide for yeast infections.
Hydrogen peroxide is a chemical that is naturally produced by your vagina so that the optimum acidic properties in the region can be maintained to a good degree, and the growth of unwanted bacteria can be severely avoided. Yeast infections are often an indication of the inability of the body to produce enough hydrogen peroxide to make sure that the acidic environment is maintained.
This is why it might be a good idea to inject a dilute hydrogen peroxide solution unnaturally so that the deficiency is countered effectively.
The first reason for the selection of hydrogen peroxide for yeast infections is the fact that it is the same chemical which is secreted by the body itself, so the chances of it disrupting the natural model of the vaginal area are minimal.
Hydrogen peroxide is very reactive when it comes to bio-organism, especially yeast, which is another reason why it is the top pick. By simply injecting it into your body, you are allowing the rapid reaction to take away most of the overgrown yeast along with it.
The safety reason associated with the use of hydrogen peroxide for yeast infections is the fact that a very small amount is needed to react quite considerably with the yeast that grows in that area, which means that a sufficiently diluted solution should not pose any significant health problems to you.
Using the solution is quite simple as long as you prepare and inject it the right way.
Take a common douching bag and a cup. Fill up the cup with warm water and add roughly 1 teaspoon of hydrogen peroxide in it, mix thoroughly, and let the solution cool up a bit before pouring it into the bag. Make sure that the bag is clean because you do not want unnecessary particle going there.
Most people douche using the wrong way which ends up in them getting infected by the solution because it goes to the parts that connect the uterus with the vagina, which can be dangerous.
Simply place the spray sufficiently inside your vaginal area and spray with very slight pressure so that the solution simply squeezes out with less force instead of fountaining upward with dangerous consequences. Allow it to naturally discharge with as much reaction as it is able to do.
Follow these two steps and use the solution around twice a day so that the yeast infection is dealt with perfectly. | [

Phase and Shape Evolutions of Ion Beam Synthesized Ge Based Nanostructures
Synthesis and characterization of Ge based nanostructures are presented. Ion beam synthesis of pure Ge nanocrystals by 74Ge+ implantation into a silica matrix is presented and the strategy to narrow the size distribution by controlling the substrate temperature during implantation is discussed. The size distribution of the sputter synthesized Ge nanocrystals is compared with that of ion beam synthesized Ge nanocrystals. Co-implantation of 74Ge and 120Sn forms binary eutectic alloy nanocrystals. The morphology of the nanocrystals is characterized with transmission electron microscopy and the thermodynamic implication of the equilibrium shape is discussed. It is demonstrated that nanocrystals with a metastable state can be formed with a single excimer laser pulse. The detailed structures and crystallinity of both equilibrium and metastable states are characterized using Raman spectroscopy, scanning transmission electron microscopy, and extended x-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy. Initial composition dependent recovery of the equilibrium crystalline state upon heating of the metastable structure is investigated with ex-situ Raman spectroscopy and in-situ transmission electron microscopy equipped with a heating stage. The observed temperature tuning range extends from near room temperature to over 500 °C depending on the Sn content, indicating metal mediated lowering of the crystallization temperature. The phase maps of each phase transformation step of the GeSn alloy nanocrystals are shown using energy filtered transmission electron microscopy, and the position shift of the bulk plasmon peak is demonstrated. One dimensional binary eutectic alloy nanostructures, GeAu nanowires, are also synthesized and characterized. In GeAu nanowires, composition dependent post-growth engineering produced various types of morphologies due to the effectively infinite length for atomic diffusion in one direction. The possibility of creating nanostructures with a combination of ion beam implantation and electron beam irradiation is visited and remaining issues are discussed. | [

This picture of a multi-ring basin on Callisto was taken the morning of March 6, 1979, from a distance of about 200,000 km.
The complicated circular structure seen at left center is similar to the large circular impact basins that dominate the surface of the Earth's moon and also the planet Mercury. The inner parts of these basins are generally surrounded by radially lineated ejecta and several concentric mountainous ring structures that are thought to form during the impact event.
This multi-ring basin on Callisto consists of light floored central basin some 300 km in diameter surrounded by at least eight to ten discontinuous rhythmically spaced ridges. No radially lineated ejecta can be seen. The ring structures on Moon and Mercury have been likened to ripples produced on a pond by a rock striking the water. The great number of rings observed around this basin on Callisto is consistent with its low planetary density and probable low internal strength.

Italian Hilltop Village...A watercolor by Tom Herrin
The village painting you see opposite was painted from a photograph I took while I was in Italy in 2007. I took a lot of these pictures but only a few came out to be good compositions for a watercolor painting. I like this painting; however, I know it could be better. I may give it another shot before I call it a day painting this type of village. Or, I could go back to Italy and do some more research. Maybe? | [

One idea for mid-level college math classes (i.e. after calculus, before highly proof based courses) which I've seen people speak very positively of is to have a portion of the course consist of students producing conjectures on their own by coming up with examples and counterexamples until they have a viable conjecture.
This sounds like a great fit with, for instance, a discrete math course, where engaging with lots of examples is important to grasping the topic.
However every time I've tried this, I find myself serving as an oracle, because there's no "stopping point" if they get the answer right: if there's a counterexample, they might be able to find it if they looked harder, but once they have a right conjecture, the only tool they have for verifying it is asking me whether or not it's right. So every time they have a new conjecture, they ask me if it's right. (And, at its worst, we alternate between me giving a counterexample and them producing a new conjecture taking into account that one additional counterexample and then asking again.)
One thing I like about the concept is that it starts to move away from "professor as arbitrary decider of right and wrong" which many of my students have internalized. But when the definition of correct conjecture is "professor says you can stop now", it ends up reinforcing that notion instead.
My question is how to avoid this: for students who can't be asked to prove their conjectures, how do they know when to stop looking for counterexamples? | [

Harriet kicked off today with a beautiful poem inspired by John’s reading last week from Dorothy Wordsworth’s journal, describing a memorable journey in the rain. We also sang Happy Birthday to Martin, welcomed Peter and Rosa, ate flapjack and explored the map! Geoff and Joan particularly enjoyed looking closely at moments within the map from recent weeks.
Geoff found a moment from last week at Grasmere, his first glimpse of Uta’s blue sky in the rain.
Harriet read an extract from AE Houseman’s A Shropshire Lad – ‘From far, from eve and morning / And yon twelve-winded sky, the stuff of life to knit me / Blew hither: here am I’. And this led into working on the inner panels for the parasol……
The studio was full of beautiful shades of blue, and we very quickly got busy mixing colour inspired by the range of cloudscapes collages. Painted and printed pieces will be layered together and stitched into the inside of the parasol.
And throughout the afternoon, the parasol itself began to be transformed into the sky….
We ended the afternoon with a display of cloud paintings and prints and a discussion about the day. John had worked expressively in paint and with words – ‘in clouds of joy’. Mandy described feeling like a real artist, forgetting herself and just working really intuitively. Jack had struggled through a question about how to do it and resolved it! Geoff had brought photographs of him climbing in the French Alps and painted a mountain side reaching into the clouds. We talked about high walks and low walks and being out ‘whatever the weather’. Martin said he has always loving walking and described in detail a walk to Keswick many years ago. Annette communicated immense pleasure, and not just the pleasure of the moment of creative activity, but throughout the rest of the week she finds herself noticing more – looking up at the sky, looking at colours in nature. Pat was happy to be there, enjoying the buzz of conversation and activity. Nita worked on the parasol with great energy, at one point holding a paintbrush between her teeth as she used another to work paint into the cloth, maintaining a commentary throughout! Pat watched her with evident enjoyment.
At the end of the afternoon, Harriet crawled under the parasol and opened it up and we could see more of the sky that was growing – and have a look at the inside….lovely to see stains of painting flowing through. The parasol will find its way to Penrith on Tuesday for further transformation!
Harriet listened as we talked and created a poem from fragments of the conversation. Lovely to have creative activity and engagement reflected back to the group so beautifully. A wonderful afternoon.
We’ve been busy getting ready for the first practical session on Friday. The map now has a cover made with many of the sky photographs the group have taken over recent weeks….but take a look inside…..
Sections of the map have been opened up and the places we have visited can be untied and unfolded to create a visual narrative that describes moments from the project so far.
Images concertina out to overlap and connect. We took some photographs in the gallery on our first day and so several images of the eggs can be unfolded from Hawsewater, and these intertwine with images from Kendal, Orton Scar and Grasmere. Similar threads of imagery will unfold from Penrith and Carlise when activity begins there and a lovely feeling of creative connection across Cumbria will feel tangible! The map will provide an important moment at the beginning of every session. Maps are full of resonance and symbolic meaning, inviting exploration and recognition. Our map will help return us to previous experiences and locate us all in a moment of new activity.
Cloud collages have also been created which will form an important stimulus for creative activity.
And the square of fabric that covers the crown of the parasol has been used as a sample to look at how it takes paint and printing ink. Really looking forward to In the Moment on Friday!
The artist and designer Rachel Kelly led the session, beginning downstairs in Abbot Hall’s period rooms where the decorative cornicing on the plush red and sage green walls frame traditional oil paintings. She drew out a discussion about how the rooms have been designed to display these paintings, creating very particular spaces.
We moved through these “roomscapes” towards the watercolour gallery where we thought about perspective in dramatic landscapes by Turner and Ruskin and in townscapes full of people on market day. We thought about how these paintings were great descriptions of the world.
We went upstairs to Taking Flight and to very different paintings! The group began to think about how paintings can represent ideas, feelings and a sense of place and we chose our favourite works to describe. Some great words! The paintings were “fast”, “exciting”, “hypnotising” and “elemental”. And from these descriptions | [

In the ongoing battle to keep Santa Monica Airport from closing, on June 10 a group delivered more than 15,000 signatures to city hall to place a vote about the airport on the ballot later this year.
The city itself and even its own airport commission are pulling out all the legal stops in a bid to shutter the airport or severely curtail its operations by closing part of the runway. The reasons given are that the airport, with homes built hard up against the airport land, is causing too many noise, pollution and safety problems for adjacent residents. Only some of these residents live in the city of Santa Monica, while others are Los Angeles citizens because the city of Los Angeles abuts portions of the airport.
While the FAA believes that the airport land automatically reverts to the federal government if the city closes the airport, under agreements that date back to 1948, the city believes it can close 2,000 feet of the 5,000-foot runway as soon as next year and close the entire airport, without penalty, by 2023. The 1948 agreement requires the land to be operated as an airport in perpetuity.
Citizens Request Vote on Airport Use
In an effort to slow the city’s efforts to close the airport, a new group has formed–Santa Monicans for Open and Honest Development Decisions (SMOHDD). The group, funded in part by a $20,000 donation from the Aircraft Owners & Pilots Association, underwrote a signature-gathering effort to place a charter amendment for the city of Santa Monica on the ballot during the fall elections in November. The amendment simply asks Santa Monica citizens to vote to require the city to obtain their approval for plans to use the airport’s 227 acres for non-aviation purposes. Without such approval, the city would have to continue to use the land for an airport.
At least 9,000 signatures were required to place the amendment on the ballot, and SMOHDD obtained more than 15,000, which the group delivered to Santa Monica city hall on June 10. At city hall, Santa Monica city clerk Sarah Gorman accepted the two boxes containing the 15,000 signatures and assured the group’s representatives that they would be placed in the city vault for safekeeping, then counted and checked for accuracy.
Santa Monica resident and amendment proponent Flora Yin, who is also a lawyer for SMOHDD, said, “Voters like me are tired of the insider political game that has gone on too long. It’s a simple charter amendment, and people agreed with us and quickly added their names to our campaign. A few politicians and pressure groups are the only people opposed to giving voters a voice before the airport can be used for other purposes.”
After delivering the signatures to city hall, John Jerabek, an SMOHDD board member, said, “I’m grateful that everyone came together and worked to get all the required signatures and more filed today.”
Jerabek is well aware that the airport’s opposition will continue fighting to close the airport. “What do I think the opposition’s going to do?” he asked. “Everything and anything they can think of. The anti-airport groups’ leadership is a well oiled machine. They’re going to put out scare tactics and misinformation, and we’re going to work hard to make sure that the residents of Santa Monica get the facts. We want voters to go to smvotersdecide.com to read the issues and decide for themselves how the airport land is used in the future.”
SMOHDD’s effort to place the amendment on the ballot is the subject of a strategic lawsuit against public participation (SLAPP) filed in May by airport opponents represented by attorney Jonathan Stein. In response, SMOHDD filed a motion seeking to have the lawsuit thrown out and for the SLAPP proponents to pay legal fees and costs for the citizens and the city targeted in the lawsuit. “This SLAPP lawsuit is part of a pattern by the same political insiders who are desperate to keep voters from having a say on what happens to 227 acres of airport land,” said SMOHDD board member David Shaby. “They harassed and intimidated people during the signature process, they sued individual citizens and accused them of criminal acts, and they even sued the City. They will try anything, but they will not be able to keep the voters from speaking out.” | [

After days of often violent protests, a Tel Aviv court has ordered a halt to construction of a homeless shelter on top of an 18th-century Muslim burial ground in Jaffa.
The Tel Aviv District Court placed a temporary injunction on the demolition of the cemetery and construction of the shelter until the court hears the petition filed by the Islamic Council, which claims in part that the building permit on the shelter has expired, the Kan public broadcaster reported.
Police and protesters continued to clash on Wednesday despite the freeze, with protesters throwing rocks and spraying tear gas at police.
On Friday, a firebomb set the Tel Aviv municipal building on fire, causing serious damage to at least one office.
The cemetery was discovered in April 2018 as digging began for the construction of the foundation of the Center for the Homeless. | [

About the Journal
Unique Aspects of IJDL Submissions
IJDL publishes text, multimedia, and hybrid text/multimedia scholarly cases. All submissions to IJDL are reviewed in text format before they are accepted for publication. Each submission should clearly state the proposed final presentation format: PDF (text and/or multimedia) or multimedia.
- Text: These cases should include primarily text, but image and multimedia assets embedded in the document are permitted. The layout of the manuscript will be indicated by the author in the initial reviewed document. After the article is accepted for publication, the assistant editor will work with the author to format the document into the required layout for publication, including the journal logo, article abstract, and author bios. Text articles are generally between 5000 and 9000 words, and contain a number of illustrations or other multimedia assets.
- Multimedia: Submissions for articles meant to become multimedia presentations are first reviewed as a storyboard, including formatted text and images, in Microsoft Word or similar format. This drastically reduces the time needed to produce the final product. Multimedia cases may include audio, video, and animation as well as interactive components, but no live hyperlinks which lead outside the journal are supported. All assets must be submitted with the article after the review process, but in the initial submission, assets may be described in the storyboard. After the review process and acceptance for publication, primarily image or video articles should be then be completed in a multimedia authoring program (e.g., Adobe Flash, Adobe Captivate), and saved as a SWF, Multimedia PDF, or similar format. Spoken word or narrated portions of the presentation are generally one hour in total length, although non-interactive portions should be kept to a minimum to increase reader engagement. A transcript for accessibility, linked from within the document as an asset, is suggested to accommodate viewers who want or need it, but this is not required for publication of multimedia articles.
All assets or components of any article published in IJDL must be stored in the IJDL online journal system. IJDL does not permit external links beyond those used in standard APA references. IJDL articles include an American Psychology Association (APA) 6th Edition reference list and includes an abstract in both the Text and Multimedia formats.
Peer Review Process
Review Process and Publication
Design cases destined to be PDF or SWF formatted articles are reviewed in the same manner, by two blind reviewers. Please allow six weeks for reviews to be completed in either format. Once your article has been reviewed, and possible revisions have been completed on the manuscript, we ask the article be prepared for publication.
- The preparation of text articles for publication requires the use of the IJDL template, provided here in Microsoft Word 2007 format, and should be used to submit your manuscript for review. Styles and formatting suggestions are provided, but the document will be formatted by the assistant editor prior to publication if accepted.
- The preparation of multimedia articles for publication may require that reviewers' concerns be addressed while the article is still in storyboard format, if extensive multimedia assets are proposed. The example storyboard here shows an original marked storyboard and the revised version which went through review. The revised version of the storyboard may be commented on further if it appears that the revisions have not met the reviewers concerns. Once the reviewers concerns have been met in the returned storyboard, the author will be asked to create the multimedia article and amend this IJDL animation (fla version) to the beginning of the SWF. Please note that the text abstract of less than 250 words dos not apply to multimedia articles; in the case of the SWF submissions that abstract must be submitted in either PDF or MS Word formats as a separate document, and will appear on the journal's website.
Please note that this is an online journal with a significant amount of multimedia content, so publisher run-offs are not available.
Submissions can also be emailed as an attachment to the assistant editor at email@example.com

Oct 20, · Years ago when playwright Tarell Alvin McCraney wrote the deeply personal "In Moonlight Black Boys Look Blue" as a drama school project, little could he have imagined that it Author: Dan Allen. Moonlight is a American coming-of-age drama film written and directed by Barry Jenkins, based on Tarell Alvin McCraney's unpublished semi-autobiographical play In Moonlight Black Boys Look Blue. It stars Trevante Rhodes, André Holland, Janelle Monáe, Ashton Sanders, Jharrel Jerome, Naomie Harris, and Mahershala scottdwebgraphics.com by: Nicholas Britell. Oct 21, · Tarell Alvin McCraney: The play In Moonlight Black Boys Look Blue doesn’t exist because it was never a play form. I never tried to produce or publish it because it wasn’t meant for that. Playwright and actor Tarell Alvin McCraney is up for an Oscar for best adapted screenplay for the film "Moonlight," based on his play "In Moonlight Black Boys Look Blue." The film is up for a Author: WBUR. Moonlight is a American drama film directed by Barry Jenkins and written by Jenkins and Tarell Alvin McCraney, based on the previously unpublished play In Moonlight Black Boys Look Blue by McCraney A timeless story of human connection and self-discovery, Moonlight chronicles the life of a young black man from childhood to adulthood as he struggles to find his place in/5. Oct 26, · The film’s screenplay is based on In Moonlight Black Boys Look Blue a shelved play written a decade ago by Tarell Alvin McCraney, one of the recipients of Author: Anupa Mistry. Oct 21, · "Moonlight," written and directed by Barry Jenkins, was adapted from McCraney's play "In Moonlight Black Boys Look Blue." It tells the story of a black boy named Chiron living in the poor Liberty. Oct 18, · In 'Moonlight,' Growing Up Black, Gay And Poor In s Miami Directed by Barry Jenkins and adapted from a play by Tarell McCraney, Moonlight is an intimate, authentic portrait of.
Well, the third chapter doesn't, for sure. And what does it mean to wait for the touch of a person that also betrayed you — without giving too much of the film away. The greatest service you can do to a preexisting work is to be disloyal to it. Especially because, like in the film, people were telling me I was gay from the off. Retrieved May 26, Main article: List of accolades received by Moonlight film. Retrieved March 4, I didn't dislike it - I mean, it's literally the shooting script and I love the movie which is why I decided to read it!
A mutual friend in Miami passed along a copy of McCraney's play a few years ago, knowing Jenkins would be interested. Because it is not, it's just not. On February 27,, the day after the Academy Awards, Calvin Klein released an underwear advertising campaign featuring four of the male actors in the film. I was back as a six-year-old kid: I think he found a way to bring out something that I had not seen in so long. The silence doesn't tell us anything, it just asks us to feel sorry for him
When McCraney was a young boy they read the whole Bible together. Not exploitative but just getting at the sort of hard truths of things. Follow NBC News. I was 22 years old, so I wrote it in a kinda fevered pitch, I was really wanting to get down these memories as fast as I could, or try to put them in a certain order, and try to figure out the next steps of my life. We are sitting at a schoolyard bench in the Miami sun a few blocks and three decades away from that childhood memory. October 21, Retrieved January 24, That was really important to me, especially growing up. Yeah, but right now my focus is mainly on "Moonlight" and hoping we can reach as wide an audience as possible. | [

In this paper, the effect of the geometrical parameters of an electrical ring resonator(ERR) on the total absorptivity of metamaterial absorbers is analyzed. In particular, the effect of electrical ring resonator parameters, dielectric layer(spacer) thickness and electrical ring resonator thickness on the absorber of metamaterials are analyzed in detail. On this basis, the orthogonal experiment is set up to analyze the combined effects of several parameters and finally obtain the theoretical absorptivity of metamaterials. Based on the above results, the principle prototype of two metamaterial absorbers is prepared. The results show that the narrowband absorptivity of the prototype is higher than 98%, which provide guidance for the design of high performance absorber. | [

Whether you are from a human services shelter wanting to start your own foster program or an animal shelter looking to expand your foster services to help pets of people in crisis, check out what our partners say works for them!
Animal Welfare Organizations
Fostering Owned Pets is a Different Ball of Fur
Your animal shelter may want to start a Temporary Care Program for people in your community that are experiencing some sort of crisis. Some Temp Care Programs house the pets in their shelter, some are strictly foster-based, and some utilize both strategies. Regardless of the housing strategy you select, there are some things to consider about these pets.
Many of the pets that come in from human service organizations may have witnessed or been victims of domestic violence. This experience may have left them with some PTSD (post-traumatic stress disorder) or, at the very least, high-stress levels.
While your staff may have experience with anxiety and stress, your average foster parent may not. Choose your fosters wisely and prepare them for what behaviors they may expect from these pets.
Check out our Temporary Care Program foster agreement example in the Documents Library to see an example of what our partners are using. | [

Interesting debate on Thursday. Both of them, actually.
I will go ahead and get things rolling. Today is the 8 August as I type this. If the Republicans as of right now cannot understand that if they are going to nominate and run two old white guys on the 2016 ticket they have already lost, then this party might as well fold its tent and cease to be.
It is virtually certain that Hillary Clinton will be the nominee for the Democrats. With her ability to turn anything said about her into victimhood – I can already see any male candidate for the republicans that criticizes her being branded a sexist.
Republicans thank your lucky stars that Carly Fiorina is on your side. I am not enamored with her as a candidate, I know she will not win the nomination. She has flaws, but she is the only one that has the guts to go straight at Hillary. She knows Hillary will be the nominee for the Democrats. Carly is well spoken, actually ANSWERS difficult questions, and can hold her own in any situation. She easily won the early debate; if the GOP cannot see that as long as Hillary is the Democratic Nominee, that Carly HAS to be on the ticket then the Republicans need new leadership.
It was a gimmick when Walter Mondale tabbed Geraldine Ferraro as his VP nominee. Do not get me wrong, the late Ms. Ferraro was a fine candidate, but this election was already decided. Mondale was going to get smashed by the Reagan train no matter what.
Most of the republicans would like to forget John McCain bringing Sarah Palin to the forefront.
I can guarantee that in the two debates Thursday night the candidates faced more difficult questions than any Democratic debate in the last 3 election cycles. Most of the 17 people in the two debates have had nothing to do with the current situation in which our county finds itself. Yet they were being grilled as if they were caught red handed standing over the murder victim with the smoking gun in hand.
Donald Trump is a problem for the Republican party. Trump is appealing to an angry mob. The statistics on Trump’s support shows that the majority is uneducated males earning less than 50,000. Trump’s mouth and RINO status will eventually lead to his frontrunner status falling apart. Where Trump will be most dangerous is when he decides to run as an independent candidate. This type of reaction has never fared well for the Republican party. In 1912 Teddy Roosevelt ran under the Bull Moose party and split the vote with William Howard Taft, and that gave the US Woodrow Wilson. For my money easily the worst President the US has ever seen. Return to 1992 and H Ross Perot splits the voting and we find ourselves with Bill Clinton. I am hopeful that history will not repeat itself.
I am not taking anything of substance from the first debate, other than Carly needs to be on the main stage next time. The first debate with Mondale and Reagan, Reagan did not perform as well as was expected of him. The second debate Reagan came back and delivered one of the best debates ever and with his response of not holding Mondale’s youth and inexperience against him, even Mondale himself was laughing.
Chris Christie, Donald Trump, Jeb Bush (especially you Jeb) please get off the stage. You are either not electable or you will do something so stupid as to embarrass us worse than the current president. Actually I will save my rant for Jeb later.
I want to hear more from Ben Carson, Ted Cruz, and Marco Rubio. I will listen a bit more to Kasich and Walker. But the rest I am of the opinion you are not electable. Pick someone besides Trump to throw your support behind and get out of the way. | [

Nine year-old Eirik Skiftenes loves to be outside both day and night. Every night since June last year, Eirik has been sleeping outside in a hammock on the porch by himself. He has become somewhat of a local hero in Grimstad, because of this particular interest.
He faces some of the challenges of sleeping outside, like cold weather and mosquito bites. However, that won’t stop Eirik when he has warm winter clothing and mosquito nets!
Eirik wants to continue sleeping outside until this year at least, but the Grimstad native says that “Nothing is better than a night out in fresh air!” | [

Creating Videos with InVideo
The most significant advantage of InVideo is its intuitive interface. Here is a step-by-step guide to creating videos with this tool.
Select the Platform.
At the first stage of your video-making journey, InVideo will ask you to choose the platform where you intend to post the video. You also get to pick the placement. For example, the video created for the Facebook timeline will be different from those in Facebook Story.
Decide on the Theme.
Depending on the type of video you wish to create, you can choose the appropriate theme and templates. InVideo is one of the few editing tools that give you access to over 4000 video templates. The templates are neatly categorized, and you can find your perfect fit in no time. You can also choose a blank template if you wish to edit your video from scratch.
Customize the Video.
At the next stage, you customize the video by adding relevant texts, images, and music. InVideo has a music library consisting of millions of images, video clips, transitions, stickers, and animated effects. The tool gives you access to a media library that you can use to pick an appropriate royalty-free track for your video.
Export the Content.
After you are satisfied with the video, you can preview the content on InVideo and check the sizing, video duration, and other minute details. Post that, click on the ‘Export’ tab at the top right corner of the screen. You can then select whether you want the clip in 720p or 1080p format and export your video content.
The above steps clearly illustrate that InVideo simplifies the process of video creation and is an ideal choice for newbie editors.
Shortcomings of InVideo
At first sight, InVideo looks too good to be true. However, a deeper look at the functionalities would reveal a couple of flaws. Firstly, the process of exporting is time-consuming, and this is a challenge for frequent editors. Also, there is no mobile app for this tool, and you need to access it through a browser.
Moreover, InVideo does not offer you the luxury of switching between templates. For example, let us imagine a situation where you select a template and personalize it by adding relevant images and text. If you do not like the outcome, you will have to redo things from scratch as there is no provision of altering templates mid-journey.
Cost of InVideo
InVideo has multiple plans, and there is something in store for people of all budgets. The free plan is decent and gives you access to more than 3000 video templates. With the free version, you can also access all the items in the media library. With this, you can export videos in SD quality, and the videos will have the default watermark.

A Philadelphia police officer recalled in court Tuesday the morning last fall when he was shot after he had spotted a man with a gun on a Kensington street. Afterward Municipal Court Judge William Austin Meehan Jr. ordered the alleged gunman held for trial on charges of attempted murder, aggravated assault, and gun offenses.
Officer Paul Sulock said he and his partner were in a patrol car about 11 a.m. Nov. 7 when he saw Jerome Hill with a gun in his hand, crouching between parked vehicles on G Street, near Hilton, then getting up and walking backward. Hill was with another man, James Gauthney, Sulock testified at Hill’s preliminary hearing.
Sulock stopped his car at G and Madison Streets and he and his partner got out. Hill initially didn’t see the officers, but swung around and began “firing at my direction,” testified Sulock, who said he and his partner fired back.
Sulock recalled feeling a “burn” in his right thigh, where he said Hill shot him.
Sulock, 31, testified that he chased Gauthney while his partner, Officer John O’Hanlon, chased Hill.
Sulock caught up with Gauthney, then was taken to Temple University Hospital to be treated for his wounds. He was released the next day, returned to work in early March, and now is assigned to Highway Patrol.
During testimony by Police Detective Thorsten Lucke, Assistant District Attorney Shuaiyb Newton showed video clips from businesses and a residence near G Street. The footage does not show the shooting of Sulock, but shows Hill firing in the officers’ direction. As Hill runs south on G, he drops his gun, and O’Hanlon picks it up and chases him.
Under questioning by defense attorney Edwin Rivera, Sulock estimated that Hill was 10 or 15 feet away from him when he fired at the officers.
The judge also ordered Hill, 29, of Olney, held for trial on attempted murder and related offenses in relation to O’Hanlon.
Gauthney, then 19, of East Germantown, originally was arrested and charged with hindering Hill’s apprehension, obstructing justice, and unsworn falsification to authorities. He had faced an April 16 preliminary hearing before another judge, but prosecutors that day dropped the charges against him.
Ben Waxman, District Attorney Larry Krasner’s spokesperson, said by email Tuesday: “We conducted a thorough investigation and concluded that we could not prove beyond a reasonable doubt in court that Mr. Gauthney was guilty of the charges brought by our office in the case.” He declined to explain why Gauthney originally had been charged.
Gauthney remains in custody in an unrelated case from a February 2018 arrest. He pleaded guilty in March 2019 to felony drug-related charges and was sentenced to 11½ to 23 months in jail.
In 2009, Hill pleaded guilty to charges of aggravated assault and carrying a firearm in public. He was given credit for time served and sentenced to five years’ probation.
He violated his probation in 2011 when he was arrested again on gun charges. He pleaded guilty the next year to gun-possession charges and was sentenced to four to eight years in prison. | [

1. The Breakfast Club (1985)
This John Hughes classic set the bar for high school movies to come. The film is centered around five teens that are all spending an afternoon in detention. Even though each one comes from a different background and clique, the group bonds over the angst each feel. The Breakfast Club is a classic that proves that no matter how different we are from each other—we still have similar hardships to face.
2.The Perks of Being a Wallflower (2012)
Based off of the 1999 book by Stephen Chbosky this film examines the hard paths that youth often travel down when in search of themselves. Through the story everything from sexuality to mental health is depicted in order to show friendship and acceptance as the key pieces needed in order to fully find and embrace the people we are.
3. Pretty in Pink (1986)
Another 1980’s John Hughes depiction of life as a young adult, Pretty in Pink shows social class and how it changes dating, especially when you are young. A classic tale of class and image versus friendship and love—this film has remained relevant and relatable for almost thirty years. Pretty in Pink is an adorable, yet cliché romance story that perfectly depicts high school cliques and has a great feeling of nostalgia.
4. Dazed and Confused (1993)
Another timeless film that manages to still link to today’s young adult life–Dazed and Confused is a nineties movie that examines high school life in the seventies. It picks up on the last day of school for a group of upcoming seniors and incoming freshman. The idea of spending youth years ignorantly and using them only for days of fun and teenage mistakes is a constant theme through the film. Pop culture and breaking social norms seem to link the unlikely groups together.
5. Fast Times at Ridgemont High (1982)
An adaptation of Cameron Crowe’s book that was a collection of his experiences under cover at Clairemont High School Fast Times at Ridgemont High accurately and hilariously captures the minds of immature teens everywhere. The film chronicles one year of the lives of two sophomores and their older friends, along with a few subplots that shine a light on other social groups.
6. Sixteen Candles (1984)
This film focuses on the beautiful yet often time embarrassing memories that are created during the awkward teenage years. From romance to trying desperately to fit in—Sixteen Candles depicts these struggles so accurately. Another film by the master of the “coming of age” genre, John Hughes, this film is sure to last as relatable to teenagers for years to come.
7. Juno (2007)
A more modern look at teenage struggle, specifically through sexuality and its consequences, Juno is a blunt comedy that manages to add humor to life’s inconvenient situations. The film does a perfect job at weaving in both adult level and youth level soul searching elements. Much of the film’s story line is centered around the idea that you could constantly be looking for yourself and never truly find the right answer, this is explored through the life of a pregnant teen and a young couple. Though the subject matter is rather depressing the unique way of lightening the mood balances it out.
8. Rebel Without a Cause (1955)
A classic James Dean film that tries to depict a growing trend in rebellious teens that stray from common morals, Rebel Without a Cause has great lessons to offer. Questioning the way youths treat one another is one of the many ways this film depicts the decay of the “moralistic American teen”. Nearing sixty years old, Rebel Without a Cause has many themes that are still relevant today.
9. Heathers (1988)
Heathers is a dark teen movie that focuses on elements such as the desperate need to fit in. The film centers around a high school outcast who attempts to violently thrash his way to the in crowd. Teen violence and bullying are displayed avidly through out the film to create the more cynical, cult classic tone that the film is now known for. Sexuality, suicide and murder weave through the storyline in order to create a dramatically dark vision of high school and the burning urge to fit in..
10. Carrie (1976)
Though often times only thought of as a horror movie, Carrie harshly depicts the terrors of bullying. Though supernatural in nature, the film still accurately portrays the way that constant abuse can force someone to break under pressure. The desperate measures that some go to reach out to the title character are even later mistaken as something horrible. Though violent and gorey Carrie, similarly to its book counterpart, does not shy away from forcing the audience to witnesses some of the most horrifyingly realistic obstacles teens have to face.
11. Napoleon Dynamite (2004)
Napoleon Dynamite is a lighter and more hilarious look at the misfit groups of high school. The subject matter consists | [

Wheat Cutting has Reached Kansas
Joe Denoyer - June 17, 2021 8:06 am
In the weekly Crop Progress and Condition report, USDA National Agricultural Statistics Service noted 18 percent of the wheat crop was mature as of June 13, behind 28 percent last year at this time. Statewide, the agency rated the wheat crop’s condition at 64 percent good to excellent, 25 percent fair and 11 percent poor to very poor.
Rains delayed the start of harvest in Texas, and custom harvesters were slow to move through Oklahoma. But with the extreme heat this week, many of them are moving into the southern portions of Kansas. Some test cutting began over the weekend and into the first part of the week, but by Wednesday, harvest was in full swing in south central Kansas.
Ernie Theilen with OK Coop Grain Co. in Kiowa, reported wheat harvest in Barber County started on June 12, but it is just now picking up speed, with custom cutters starting to arrive in the area. Initial yields are down a bit from last year, but quality is comparable.
Theilen said this year’s growing season was decent with less impact than expected from the Arctic freeze, due to sufficient moisture or ground cover. Overall, he expects to see an average to above-average crop by the time harvest is complete. | [

It is New Year’s Eve when the storm of the century hits northern California. In a quiet neighborhood in San Francisco, amid the chaos of fallen trees and damaged homes, the lives of three strangers are about to collide. For Quinn Thompson, what happens in the storm’s wake will bring down a barrier he has built around himself since his wife’s death. For neighbor Maggie Dartman, it will spark friendship at a time when she needs it most. And for Jack Adams, a carpenter who will repair Quinn’s and Maggie’ s homes, the storm brings an opportunity: to help two people and to be repaid with the greatest gift of all.
As three lives come together and a unique friendship is forged, something extraordinary begins to happen…Maggie, still grieving a loss, slowly comes alive again–and Jack finally shares a painful secret he has hidden for years. But at the center of the friendship is Quinn. A man who has scaled heights of success in business, Quinn is now adrift, waiting as builders put the finishing touches on his newest passion, a 180-foot yacht he plans to sail around the world. Looking back at all he missed with his family while he built his empire, Quinn is consumed by guilt, focused only on escaping to the sea. But as his plans near completion, and his friendship with Maggie begins to change, Quinn faces a choice–between a safe haven and an adventure of the heart. The choice he makes will affect other lives as powerfully as his own. And it will take him on an extraordinary journey–and into a second, terrifying storm, one that will bring him danger…or deliverance.

From almost the beginning of the COVID-19 lockdowns and lesser restrictions on gatherings, there has been a low-level hum of hypocrisy that, at times, roared so loudly it couldn’t be seriously ignored.
Much of this hypocrisy has revolved around faith, especially religious services, marriage rights, burial rights, visitation with the sick and dying and other crucial human connections that transcend the day-to-day business of living.
In the early stages of lockdowns and requirements on social distancing, it was impossible not to recognize that while gatherings for religious services, even outdoors, were commonly limited or otherwise proscribed, thousands gathered in close contact in the streets for protests — a right, by the way, we fully support.
As the lockdowns became more nuanced in places like New York, with certain businesses deemed “essential,” the faithful were still kept in large numbers from their churches, synagogues and mosques.
Gov. Greg Abbott wisely recognized not only the hypocrisy but also the plainly unconstitutional nature of these limitations early on and maintained the First Amendment’s guarantee on religious freedom here. People of faith by and large have responded with responsible and careful impositions on their own gatherings, and there is no evidence places of worship are significant spreaders of disease.
But it has taken a 5-4 opinion from the Supreme Court, with a blistering concurrence from Justice Neil Gorsuch, to extend those protections more broadly to the nation, at least through temporary injunctive relief.
Gorsuch’s opinion, we hope, will be one for the ages. And we expect that, in time, even the most ardent proponent of locking down society will recognize the importance of the freedoms the court has wisely extended protection over.
In New York, where the Catholic diocese and Jewish synagogues sued for relief, Gov. Andrew Cuomo had sharply limited service attendance in “red” and “orange” zones. But in those same zones there were limited restrictions on getting together for a manicure, or to buy a bottle of liquor, or to see your accountant, or on and on.
“Who knew public health would so perfectly align with secular convenience?” Gorsuch wondered.
The question here isn’t whether there should be restrictions on gathering. It is, as Gorsuch correctly wrote, a matter of discrimination violating the Constitution’s protection on the free exercise of religious faith.
It’s worth quoting the justice at length here.
“The only explanation for treating religious places differently seems to be a judgment that what happens there just isn’t as ‘essential’ as what happens in secular spaces. Indeed, the Governor is remarkably frank about this: In his judgment laundry and liquor, travel and tools, are all ‘essential’ while traditional religious exercises are not. That is exactly the kind of discrimination the First Amendment forbids.”
If we were to add anything, it would be that when society fosters a culture where people freely sort through the moral questions of life and work to adhere to a set of ethics that are larger than themselves and grounded in moral precepts involving honesty, integrity, and respect for others we all tend to be better off. In this country you are free to believe or not, but recognizing that freedom is an essential element of our society. | [

As a volunteer counselor for crisis support services in my county, I answer calls from people in crisis who come from all different walks of life. Their stories reflect a tapestry of emotions, challenges, and social circumstances. I am often struck by a caller’s willingness to share their life experiences and struggles, and desire for human connection as part of their path forward.
Informed by this experience, I was interested to learn that these services would soon be readily available to more people in crisis. In 2020, Congress enacted laws and the Federal Communications Commission issued regulations that designate 988 as the new three-digit number for our national suicide prevention and mental health crisis hotline. The goal of this simplified number is to make it easier to remember for those who experience mental illness and their families, who might not otherwise know how to quickly access crisis help. It may make safety planning easier for clinicians and their patients who can feel paralyzed during a crisis and unable to remember a complex rescue plan.
988 comes at a critical time when the COVID-19 pandemic and the resulting economic recession have negatively affected many people’s mental health. With this transition, effective in July 2022, comes many benefits and some potential challenges.
The new emergency number presents an opportunity to create a continuum of care that ensures appropriate responses to mental health crises and increases equity when it comes to receiving mental health care. If operationalized successfully, more response services, such as mobile crisis teams, will be available regardless of who or where people are or why they are calling. There are many possible benefits and opportunities associated with this new resource:
- Reeducate the public about how to help those in crisis by using an easy-to-remember number, resulting in more people getting help in a timely and appropriate manner.
- Reduce stigma associated with mental illness and seeking out help.
- Use technology for real-time coordination across a system of care and leverage data for performance improvement, prevention strategies, and accountability across systems.
- Support the development of a system of regional or statewide crisis call centers that provide high-touch support to individuals and families in crisis.
- Reallocate law enforcement resources to be applied to non-mental health emergencies.
With change also comes challenge. Congress passed the National Suicide Hotline Designation Act, allowing states to administer small user fees to pay for the efficient and effective routing of calls, personnel, and the provision of acute mental health crisis outreach and stabilization services. States must identify funding to effectively operate and implement 988 and they are at different stages of this process.
Experts expect 988 to generate a greater call volume – from 4 million in 2021 to 13 million by 2026. With this growth, states and mental health providers are concerned about coordinating care and responses while providing services in a culturally competent manner. We know that the need for services will put greater demands on mental health providers, a profession facing countrywide shortages.
In Oregon and Washington, Kaiser Permanente is working with state leadership to access information about members who call 988 or their local crisis line so that we can coordinate immediate appointments with a health care clinician. Additionally, our Northwest region is increasing the number of behavioral health consultants in all primary care clinics to help meet the increased demand for mental health services.
While 988 holds the promise of significantly strengthening our country’s mental health crisis care, its success hinges on our nation’s crisis infrastructure and the ability of states and providers to respond to the call.

Whether you are in a field of engineering related to hydraulics or some other professional field, chances are that you work with hydraulic pumps. In this article, we’ll discuss how the hydraulics pump calculation formula can help you understand how to calculate the flow rate and pressure for your hydraulic pump.
The main technical parameters of the hydraulic pump
(1) pump displacement (mL/r) pump per rotation week, the volume of liquid that can be discharged.
(2) pump taenretcal capacity (L/min) in the rated number of revolutions, the maximum flow rate of the pump can be discharged per unit of time obtained by calculation.
(3) pump rated flow (L/min) under normal operating conditions; to ensure that the pump can operate for a long time the maximum flow output.
(4) pump rated pressure(MPa) under normal operating conditions; to ensure that the pump can operate for a long time the highest pressure.
(5) pump maximum pressure (MPa) allows the pump to exceed the rated pressure for a short period of time when operating at the highest pressure.
(6) pump rated revolutions (r/min) in the rated pressure, can ensure that the highest number of revolutions for a long time of normal operation.
(7) pump maximum revolutions (r/min) at rated pressure, allowing the pump to exceed the maximum number of revolutions for a short period of time when operating at rated speed.
(8) pump volume efficiency (%) the ratio of the actual output flow of the pump to the theoretical flow.
(9) pump total efficiency (%) the ratio of the hydraulic power output of the pump to the mechanical power input.
(10) pump drive power (kW) in normal operating conditions can drive the mechanical power of the hydraulic pump.
Hydraulic Pump Calculation Formula
PUMP OUTLET FLOW:
FLOW =RPM x PUMP DISPLACEMENT(Cu. In./Rev.)/231
Q = nd/231
PUMP INPUT POWER
HORSEPOWER INPUT = FLOW RATE OUTPUT(GPM) x PRESSURE(PSIG)/1714 x EFFICIENCY(Overall)
HP =QP/1714 Eff
PUMP EFFICIENCY(OVERALL IN PERCENT )
OVERALL EFFICIENCY (%) = OUTPUT HORSEPOWER/INPUT HORSEPOWERx 100
EffOV= HPOUT/HPINx 100
PUMP EFFICIENCY(VOLUMETRIC IN PERCENT)
VOLUMETRIC EFFICIENCY (%) = ACTUAL FLOW RATE OUTPUT(GPM)/THEORETICAL FLOW RATE OUTPUT(GPM)x 100
EffVOL =QACT./QTHEO.x 100
PUMP EFFICIENCY(MECHANICAL IN PERCENT)
MECHANICAL EFFICIENCY (%) = THEORETICAL TORQUE TO DRIVE/ACTUAL TORQUE TO DRIVEx 100
EffMECH = TTHEO./TACT.x 100
PUMP DISPLACEMENT(IN CUBIC INCHES/REVOLUTION)
DISPLACEMENT = (FLOW RATE(GPM) x 231)/PUMP RPM
CIPR = (GPM/RPM) x 231
PUMP TORQUE(IN INCH POUNDS)
TORQUE =(HORSEPOWER x 63025)/RPM
PUMP TORQUEIN (INCH POUNDS)
TORQUE = (PRESSURE(PSIG) x PUMP DISPLACEMENT(CIPR)/(2 x 3.14)
T=PSIG d/(2 x 3.14)
T=Pd/(2 x 3.14)
PUMP LIFE(B10 BEARING LIFE)
B10 HOURS OF BEARING LIFE=RATED LIFE HOURSxRATED SPEED(RPM)/NEW SPEED(RPM)x(RATED PRESSURE(PSIG))3/(NEW PRESSURE(PSIG))3
B10 = RATED HRS. xRPMr/RPMnx(P r)3/(P n)3
Hydraulic Pump Efficiencies
There are three categories of efficiency used to describe hydraulic pumps (and motors): volumetric efficiency, mechanical/hydraulic efficiency and overall efficiency.
Volumetric efficiency is determined by dividing the actual flow delivered by a pump at a given pressure by its theoretical flow. Theoretical flow is calculated by multiplying the pump’s displacement per revolution by its driven speed. So if the pump has a displacement of 100 cc/rev and is being driven at 1000 R | [

Concern over rising threat of landline scams
12 March 2019
HMRC is warning all households to be vigilant after seeing a rise in the number of phone calls from fraudsters pretending to be them. In the last six months the tax authority has received 60,000 reports of phone scams. This is an increase of 360% on the six months before this.
Ironically, it appears that HMRC’s crackdown on text and email phishing scams has left fraudsters no choice but to try to con taxpayers over the phone, suggested the financial secretary to the Treasury, Mel Stride.
He said: “If you receive a suspicious call to your landline from someone purporting to be from HMRC which threatens legal action, to put you in jail, or payment using vouchers: hang-up and report it to HMRC who can work to take them off the network.”
During the last 12 months, HMRC has worked with the phone networks and Ofcom to close nearly 450 lines being used by fraudsters using boiler room tactics to steal money.
The tax authority will only ever call you asking for payment on a debt that you are already aware of, either having received a letter about it, or after you have told them you owe some tax, for example through a self-assessment return.

The United States Department of Defense has confirmed that Ukraine's military has successfully shot down a hypersonic missile called “Kinzhal” (NATO reporting name Killjoy) using the Patriot air defense system.
The Pentagon spokesperson, Patrick Ryder, confirmed the news and stated that the system is part of a broader range of air defense assets that the United States and the international community have provided to Ukraine.
The Ukrainian Air Force Commander, Mykola Oleshchuk, had reported last week that the Patriot system had shot down a Kinzhal missile launched by Russia during a strike on Ukraine on May 4. Oleshchuk stated that a missile was fired by a MiG-31K aircraft from the Russian territory and was shot down over the Kyiv region.
Initially, the Ukrainian Air Force had denied the allegations made by the Ukrainian portal Defense Express that the AFU shot down the Kinzhal missile.
The Russian authorities call the Kinzhal missile hypersonic, and Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu claimed in August 2022 that the missile was “impossible to detect or intercept.”
The successful intercept of the missile by Ukraine's Patriot air defense system has proven otherwise.

Washington, DC (December 6, 2022) – In recent years, a refrain has emerged that attempts to hold providers of single-family rental homes responsible for all of the challenges confronting America’s housing market – from price appreciation, to competition, to rising rents, even to issues of community investment and economic impact. The latest example comes from the Department of Housing and Urban Development, which convened a panel discussion this month attempting to blame single-family rental homes, a vital component of America’s housing market for decades, for limiting access to homeownership. A particular concern for the panel: the role of institutions in the single-family rental home market.
The reality is, America needs more housing of all kinds, both owner-occupied and rental. Despite the rhetoric from the HUD panel, single-family rental homes are critical to the health and stability of our nation’s housing market. They provide individuals and families the opportunity to live in quality, affordably-priced housing located in high-demand neighborhoods,. Single-family rental home companies are simply responding to the demand for a greater range of housing options in those communities.
As for the HUD panel’s portrayal of single-family rental home providers, there are several key facts worth acknowledging:
First, single-family rental homes – whether owned by individuals or institutions – play an important role in ensuring Americans have access to quality, affordably-priced housing. As highlighted by the Wall Street Journal in a November 28, 2022 article, “As Mortgage Rates Rise, More People Choose to Rent Single-Family Homes”:
“Increasingly, U.S. consumers faced with inflation and the high price of homes are pressing the pause button on home buying. The rate on an average 30-year fixed mortgage is now 6.61%, more than double what it was in October 2021, according to housing-finance agency Freddie Mac…The trend has made consumers closely examine whether renting a single-family home currently is more economical than owning one. Nationally, it cost $888 a month more to buy an entry-level single-family home than to rent it, according to September data from John Burns Real Estate Consulting. A 30-year-fixed mortgage with 5% down (including principal, interest, taxes, insurance and maintenance) on such a home cost $3,058 a month, while the median monthly rent on such a single-family house was $2,170, based on John Burns research.”
Second, institutions account for a small fraction of America’s housing. Large institutions own about 450,000 single-family rental homes in the US. Third quarter 2022 data from the Census Bureau’s Estimate of the Housing Inventory show there are 143,613,000 residential housing units in the country, 43,575,000 of which are rental properties. This means, large institutions which own single-family rental homes account for about 0.3% of the nation’s housing and 1% of the total amount of rental housing. Said another way, 99.7% of the housing in the United States and 99% of the rental housing is accounted for by someone other than a large institution owing single-family rental homes.
Source: US Census Bureau; NRHC estimate based on member-provided data and market information
Third, America is facing a shortage of rental housing. The number of single-family rental homes in the US has been on the decline in recent years, falling from 14.5 million properties to 14.3 million between 2019 and 2021. This reflects a broader trend that has taken hold over the past few years: owner-occupied housing is increasing at higher growth rates than rental housing. Census Bureau data show the number of owner-occupied housing units in the US grew by 11.3% (8.6 million units) over the past five years while the number of rental housing units increased just 1.5% (636,000 units). This has led to a decrease in the share of rental housing in the country from 31.4% of the housing market to 30.3% during this timeframe.
Source: US Census Bureau; difference in rates between 3Q17 and 3Q22
Fourth, it is not the case that institutions have negatively impacted homeownership. Over the past five years, homeownership rates in the US have increased from 63.9% to 66.0%. According to data published in October 2022 by the Urban Institute, both Black and Latino homeownership rates increased between 2019 and 2021 – and in each case those rates exceeded that of White homeownership. Regarding home price appreciation, large institutions didn’t own a single property in seven of the ten states that experienced the fastest rates of home price growth in 2021. Lastly, many institutional owners are actually contributing to the growth in homeownership by helping their residents increase their credit scores through the reporting of on-time rent payments to the credit bureaus and providing access to financial literacy programs.
Finally, large institutions have been | [

The house for a psychologist, a nurse and their young daughter is designed as the extension of an existing one-floor building in the historic center of Polignano a Mare. While the old tufo facade remains almost unmodified, the new volume above is clearly defined through the use of lighter materials: a double skin system – made of glass/aluminum large windows screened by steel and wood retractable panels – allows natural light in, while preventing heating. About 4.000 movable wooden tiles create a reconfigurable front, and generate always changing shadows effects inside.
The project aims to open a dialogue between old context and contemporary language, while focusing on the importance of perception and phenomenological aspects in built space. The opposite ideas of the ruin and of the unfinished are expressed in the design as a link between past and future. | [

Greg Solk Named WJMK/WXRT Program Director
Solk most recently was Senior VP of Programming for Hubbard Radio until his exit last March. He had joined Hubbard with its acquisition of multiple markets from Bonneville in 2011. Outside of two years as PD of AAA 104.5 KFOG San Francisco in the early 1990s, Solk’s entire career has been spent in Chicago where he started as an intern at 97.9 WLUP and eventually served as VP/Programming of that station and was was instrumental in launching “97.1 The Drive” WDRV in 2001.
Solk fills the position at WXRT that had been vacant since the retirement of Norm Winer in early 2016. Todd Cavanagh gave up day-to-day programming of WJMK last month when he added those duties at Country “US 99.5” WUSN last month.
CBS Radio Chicago has appointed Greg Solk to the position of Program Director and Operations Manager for Triple A WXRT (93XRT) and Classic Hits station WJMK (KHits). Solk joins the Chicago team with a goal of building loyalty among KHits’ engaged adult listeners while also spearheading a new era of growth at XRT, one of Chicago’s most respected radio brands.
“Greg grew up listening to XRT as a teenager and spent decades programming against it. This is an unbelievable opportunity for us to have not only a true fan of XRT but a strategic thinker to make XRT the number one rock choice in Chicago,” said Todd Cavanah, CBS Radio Chicago VP/Programming. “His deep knowledge of music’s past, present and future will keep XRT evolving forward by remembering the heritage of this unique Chicago brand. For KHits, Greg brings tremendous knowledge to the Classic Hits format and we welcome him as a partner on our programming team.”
“I have been blessed in my career to work for some amazing stations in my hometown, but this opportunity is off the charts,” said Solk. “Everyone knows there is no station or staff anywhere in the world that can rival the 45-year heritage of WXRT — ‘Chicago’s Finest Rock.’ I am humbled to be a part of its brilliant legacy.
“To be asked to also take the reins of KHits makes this the most exciting move I can imagine. I can’t wait to join the great team of professionals at CBS Radio. I am honored by the confidence Tim Pohlman, Todd Cavanah and Chris Oliviero have placed in me.”
Solk, a 30-year radio programming veteran and Chicagoland native, began his career as a 15-year-old intern at WLUP Chicago in 1977. Most recently, he was SVP/Programming at Hubbard Radio overseeing seven markets including Chicago, Washington DC, Phoenix, Minneapolis-St. Paul, St. Louis and Cincinnati. His lengthy radio experience includes programming and building iconic Chicago radio brands including The Loop (WLUP), The Drive (WDRV), The Mix (WTMX), and KFOG-FM in San Francisco. | [

Pulse-Doppler Radar: Meteorological Application
The radar (a term derived from the English acronym “radio detection and ranging”) is a system that uses electromagnetic waves to measure distances, altitudes, directions and speeds of static or mobile objects such as aircraft, ships, motorized vehicles, meteorological formations and the terrain itself. Its operation is based on the emission of a radio impulse, which is reflected in the target and is typically received in the same position as the emitter (Long, Mooney & Skillman, 1990).
The use of electromagnetic waves allows detecting objects beyond the range of other types of emissions (visible light, sound, etc.). In meteorology, the radar known as “Doppler” is used. “The meteorological Doppler radar provides estimates of radar reflectivity, mean radial velocity, and the distribution of radial velocities of the scatterers in each radar resolution cell” (Trotter, Strauch, & Frush, 1980).
Its location system is based on emitting trains of pulses at a specific frequency and using the Doppler Effect to determine the relative transverse velocity of the objects. This type of radars present ambiguity in the measurement of distances, therefore, they are not very useful for location tasks (Zrinc & Mahapatra, 1985).
The Doppler Effect is a phenomenon in which an apparent change occurs in the frequency of sound, or in the wavelength of light, which is due to the relative movement of the entity that emits it in relation to an observer (Chan, 1970). “Doppler radar systems can provide information regarding the movement of targets as well as their position. When the radar transmits pulses of radio waves, the system keeps track of the phase (shape, position, and form) of those pulses. By measuring the shift (or change) in phase between a transmitted pulse and a received echo, the target's movement directly toward or away from the radar is calculated” (National Weather Service, 2007).
The magnitude and direction of the displacement allow us to determine the movement of the targets, which may be approaching or moving away from the radar. “This ability to detect motion has greatly improved the meteorologist's ability to peer inside thunderstorms and determine if there is rotation in the cloud, often a precursor to the development of tornadoes” (National Weather Service, 2017).
The Doppler Effect has a lot of uses in different fields, in the case of sound, it is very useful in the detection of objects that are out of the visual field as it happens with the radar and in the GPS satellite location. It is also used to locate objects submerged in seas and oceans or to determine the course and speed of military targets (Bech & Chau, 2012).
Pulse-Doppler radar operation
The Doppler radar is based on the fact that in objects in which there is movement respecting to the radar, right in the component that is placed perpendicular to the direction of illumination, produce an alteration in the frequency of the electromagnetic wave when it affects them (Zrnic, 2012).
The operating principle of the weather radar is to emit, through an antenna, a pulse of electromagnetic energy of certain duration and wavelength. This energy is concentrated in a beam that when emitted to the outside and by the effect of diffraction takes a conical shape. Inside that cone, the energy is not distributed uniformly but in the form of a lobe: it is much larger in the center and decreases rapidly as it moves away from it (Green, Gage, & Van Zandt, 1979).
Due to the impossibility to concentrate all the energy in the said cone, a part of it escapes out of it. As a result, the energy emitted is distributed in the form of a central lobe (which is the one that contains most of the energy) and a series of secondary lobes of lower energy. It is similar to the reception of electromagnetic signals received by a terrestrial TV antenna. (Trotter, Strauch, & Frush, 1980).
When that energy is intercepted by a 'target' (for example, a drop of water) it is scattered in all directions, so that a fraction is returned in the direction of the radar and picked up by the receiver (usually located on the same antenna). The distance to the 'target' is determined by recording the time elapsed between the emission and reception of the energy and knowing that this energy is transmitted at the speed of light. (National Weather Service, 2017).
Objects that come close to the source will positively influence the frequency of the echo they produce, and objects that move away will have a negative influence on this relationship, with the frequency of the wave emitted by the source being greater than that of the echo. The difference between the frequencies emitted and received allow us to calculate the speed of the moving object. The calculation of the speed is based on prior knowledge of the frequency of the radar, the speed of light, the number of pulses emitted per second and the difference between the frequency emitted and the one produced by its echo (Hilde | [

Lieutenant Governor Timothy Murray today announced that all state agencies that oversee professional licensing within the Patrick-Murray Administration have established guidelines to assist members of the armed forces, veterans, and their spouses as they prepare and apply for jobs in Massachusetts.
The announcement is a follow up to the authorization and implementation of “An Act Relative to Veterans’ Access, Livelihood, Opportunity, and Resources” (VALOR Act), signed by Governor Deval Patrick in 2012, which required certain areas of state government to establish military friendly practices for licensing.
“As our military servicemen and women sacrifice their lives for our country they also gain tremendous and unique job training skills that should never be overlooked when seeking employment,” said Lieutenant Governor Timothy Murray, Chair of the Governor’s Advisory Council on Veterans’ Services. “We look forward to working with all partners to ensure our veterans are made aware of these new resources as they transition home and into our workforce.”
MassDOT's Registry of Motor Vehicles is officially adopting the Military Commercial Driver License Skills Test Waiver that allows a qualified service member or veteran to apply for a CDL without road skills testing. The test will be waived for veterans with two years of military experience operating vehicles representative of the Class of license applied for, during the 90 days prior to discharge from the service. The implementation of this waiver comes after a successful pilot with the Massachusetts National Guard. Massachusetts will join 36 other states that have adopted this option.
“Easing the Commercial Driver Licensing process for our qualified military personnel and veterans is a tremendous customer service that MassDOT is proud to offer,” said Registrar of Motor Vehicles Rachel Kaprielian. “Our men and women will have access to greater employment opportunities with this valuable, marketable certification.”
A new website consolidating more than 200 state and federal benefits including all areas of state licensing benefits for the military is available at www.MassVetsAdvisor.org. MassVetsAdvisor provides access to programs for education, counseling, employment, health care and other services.

Compiled by the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration, the Interstate Passenger Carrying Driver’s Guide to Hours of Service concerns various regulations addressing service hours. These hours apply to all individuals when operating commercial motor vehicles in the United States no matter the vehicle’s destination or driving time involved. The purpose of these regulations is to prevent accidents caused by commercial motor vehicle suffering from fatigue, which is known to result in errors of judgment and inattentive drivers. This article will explain some of the most important elements of the Driver’s Guide to Hours of Service. It should be noted that the Hours of Service are contained in Section 395 of the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulations. It is important to understand that these are just federal regulations and that individuals must also follow applicable state laws when driving.
Parties to Whom the Hours of Service Regulations Apply
All commercial motor vehicle operators must follow hours of service regulations. A commercial motor vehicle is defined as a bus, motorcoach, or other passenger-carrying vehicles that is:
- Carrying Hazardous Materials. Involved in interstate commerce and transporting hazardous materials in a quantity that requires signage. Commerce involves any type of trade in which a person buys or sells good and services and can also include vehicles that move goods or passengers between places. Interstate refers to travel between states or countries.
- Carrying a Sufficient Weight. Involved in interstate commerce and weighs at least 10,001 pounds.
- A Patient Commercial Transport. Involved in interstate commerce and designed to transport nine or more individuals for compensation.
- A Patient Transport That is Not Commercial. Involved in interstate commerce and designed to transport 16 or more individuals, not for compensation.
Understanding Hours of Service Regulations
The hours of service requirements are calculated over a 168-hour period, or one week, and commence when a driver begins duty. Once duty has begun, a driver is required to follow several important restrictions, which include the following:
- 10 Hours. Each new duty period must begin with at least 10 hours previously off duty.
- 14-Hour Periods. The driver is limited to a maximum of 14 hours of driving each day. This 14-hour period includes the time that a person takes for breaks, fuel stops, and meals.
- 30-Minute Breaks. The driver must take a mandatory 30-minute break by the eighth hour of coming on duty.
- 60 Hours. Motor vehicle operators are permitted to work 60 hours out of 168 hours in a week. Drivers are able to work 60 hours on duty in seven consecutive days.
- Restart Period. Motor vehicle operators can restart the seven-day period once every 168 hours by taking at least 34 consecutive hours off-duty. This 34-hour period must include two consecutive periods must include two consecutive periods from 1 am to 5 am.
Penalties for Violating Hours of Service Requirements
If a motor vehicle operator is caught violating hours of service requirements, the resulting consequences can be particularly severe. These penalties can include:
- Criminal Charges. Criminal charges can be brought against a carrier that knowingly causes truck drivers to violate regulations.
- Fines. The truck driver might be forced to pay fines. Civil penalties can also be charged against the individual ranging from $1,000 to $11,000.
- Insurance Costs. The carrier’s safety rating can be decreased.
- Off-Duty Time. The truck may be taken out of service at roadside until the driver has accumulated enough off-duty time to operate a vehicle.

Items tagged with: INFINITE UNIVERSE THEORY
This is what I wrote in IUT: “By 1929, Edwin Hubble discovered enough galaxies to establish that the degree of redshift also was a rough inverse function of their luminosity, which is a measure of their distance… His greatest mistake was to promote Slipher’s speculation that this cosmological redshift always was due to the Doppler Effect. The title of his famous 1929 introductory paper says it all: “A relation between distance and radial velocity among extra-galactic nebulae.””
In other words, he initially assumed the cosmological redshift and the Doppler Effect were one and the same. But the Doppler Effect only occurs in a medium. Einstein had removed that possibility by his temporary rejection of aether. A single particle could not have such an effect. Nonetheless, regressive physicists and cosmogonists accepted Einstein’s eight ad hocs.Both BBT and SST assumed that light was a particle instead of what it really is: a wave in a sea of particles.

Still more light found at the “end of the universe”.... The observable “end of the universe” is the farthest we can see with our present telescopes, with the Hubble Space Telescope the current far-out leader. In “Infinite Universe Theory” I included this photo, pointing out that the spiral galaxies at a distance of 13.2 billion light years were no different than our own Milky Way, which is 13.7 billion years old:
IUT, Figure 9. Close-up of a small portion of the HUDF [Hubble Ultra Deep Field]. Note that these objects are various colors. Most are not red as implied by the misnomer “cosmological redshift.” Color is determined by frequency, not wavelength. Credit: NASA.
Of course, the Big Bang Theory claims that we should see younger and younger objects the farther we look out into space:
IUT, Figure 7. NASA’s official view of what the Big Bang universe should look like (seriously). Credit: NASA.
So far, there is no evidence to support that conjecture. Instead, the presence of the “elderly galaxies” in IUT Figure 9 above falsifies the theory. Now, Borlaff and others have done a computer analysis of the Hubble photos, coming up with this:
“The new version of Hubble's deep image. In dark grey is the new light that has been found around the galaxies in this field. That light corresponds to the brightness of more than 100 billion suns. Credit: A. S. Borlaff and others, 2019.” (Courtesy Mike Wall, Space.com).
Once again, it looks like there is more to the universe than previously recognized. In Infinite Universe Theory (p. 289), I predicted that “Improvements in instrumentation soon will result in the discovery of cosmological objects older than 13.8 billion years.” That is the currently accepted “age of the universe.” IUT Figure 7 will be severely tested when the Webb telescope replaces the Hubble after March 2021. Will that put the kibosh on the BBT? Unlikely. Cosmogonists no doubt will invent some new ad hocs to rescue the theory one more time. Readers might remember that my prediction is that the BBT will not be discarded until 2050.
Borlaff and others, 2019, The missing light of the Hubble Ultra Deep Field, v. 621, p. A133.

Independent samples from the fishery obtained through a diving campaign added to the information from the commercial diving and traps, during the months of June 1996 to May 1997, are analyzed. Also official catch records from 1980-2001 were reviewed. A claw -shell relationship was estimated, a comparative analysis of claws between two fishing communities (Isla Arena and Campeche) was studied. According to the official records, the private sector owns 78% of the traps, the rest belong to the social sector (22%). The highest percentage of regeneration of claws was observedin December (73 %), and the lowest in June and July (0%). The officially authorized fishing gear is the trap called "nasa", but in the region it is caught mainly by lung diving, most of all in the Campeche county.\Mature specimens started to appear in the grass beds in front of the city of Campeche, migrating North through the year towards Isla Arena. The highest frequency of females with exposed eggs occurred throughout June to October.\It was also observed that in the commercial catch both right and left claws are found, although this is denied by the fishermen, who claim they only take one. | [

On August 7th, we will reach the halfway point between summer solstice and autumn equinox in the northern hemisphere. This is one of four “cross-quarter” days that occur in our annual trek around the Sun
Many of our ancestors celebrated the harvest at this time of year. The Celtic people in the British Isles paid homage to the Sun God Lugh at this time. The first sheaf of wheat was harvested and ceremoniously ground and baked into bread for the festival of Lughnasadh. Bonfires were lit to honor the fiery energies of the Sun. The fruits of the harvest were celebrated and shared by everyone.
Later in Britain, the festival of Lughnasadh became Lammas Day. The festival of Lammas was held to honor the wheat harvest. The word Lammas comes from the Anglo-Saxon hlaf-mas or “loaf-mass.” On the day of Lammas it was customary to bring a loaf of bread made from the new crop to church in celebration and gratitude.
Many centuries before Lugh or Lammas existed, the Goddess Arinna was worshiped by ancient tribes living in the region that is now Turkey (1400 BCE). Arinna was their main solar deity and her consort was the weather god, Teshub. Arinna was honored for creating the natural abundance of our Earth and making human life possible.
Whether through honoring Arinna, Lugh or Lammas, our ancestors took time to express their gratitude for the bounty of the harvest every year. Their ceremonies were ritualized ways for the community to acknowledge and honor the food that grows when Father Sun unites with Mother Earth. Our ancestors lived closer to the Earth and the cycles of the seasons. They understood that all life on Earth depends on the magical union of sun, seed and earth.
What have you harvested this year? What are you grateful for? During this sacred time, take a few moments to express gratitude for all the abundance in your life.
And take time to thank Mother Earth and Father Sun for life itself. | [

WASHINGTON — Not all racial and ethnic groups have equal access to kidney transplantation, according to a study appearing in an upcoming issue of the Journal of the American Society Nephrology (JASN). The results indicate that the reasons for these disparities are varied and that more focused efforts are needed to address them.
For most individuals who develop kidney failure or end-stage renal disease, kidney transplantation is the best treatment option. Unfortunately, certain racial and ethnic groups are less likely to receive kidney transplants than others. Despite the increasing diversity of patients on dialysis who need kidney transplants, no prior studies had comprehensively compared the barriers to transplantation among different racial and ethnic groups.
Yoshio Hall, MD (University of Washington, Seattle) and his colleagues investigated the rates and determinants of waitlisting and deceased-donor kidney transplantation among 503,090 non-elderly adults of different racial and ethnic groups who initiated dialysis between 1995 and 2006. They followed the patients through 2008.
The researchers found that the annual crude rates of deceased-donor transplantation from the time of dialysis initiation were lowest in American Indians/Alaska Natives (2.4%) and blacks (2.8%), intermediate in Pacific Islanders (3.1%) and Hispanics (3.2%), and highest in non-Hispanic whites (5.9%) and Asians (6.4%).
The reasons for these differences in rates varied among racial and ethnic groups: blacks, American Indians, and Alaska Natives face continued difficulty in accessing transplant waitlists, primarily due to socioeconomic factors, while Hispanics and Pacific Islanders encounter delays from waitlists, which may be negatively influenced by regional organ availability, linguistic isolation, and perhaps cultural isolation. “Looking forward, our study suggests that interventions to address local population-specific barriers to transplantation may help to reduce overall racial, ethnic, and socioeconomic disparities in accessing kidney transplantation,” said Dr. Hall.
Study co-authors include Ping Xu, Ann O’Hare, MD (University of Washington, Seattle); Andy Choi, MD (University of California San Francisco); and Glenn Chertow, MD (Stanford University). Disclosures: Dr. Ann O’Hare reported receiving royalties from UpToDate, Inc. All other authors reported no financial disclosures.

Since the 2000s, China’s media industrialization and cultural globalization have encouraged a burgeoning “queer pop”——that is, a soaring proliferation of non-normatively gendered and/or sexualized narratives and performances, cultural productions and inventions, artistic expressions and gestures, and social relations and kinship systems in China’s media, cultural, and creative industries and spaces.

JSR remains an outlet for publications related to Southern Japan Seminar events that encourages submissions from a wide range of scholars in the field.
Over the past several decades, scholarship has challenged the traditional association between monarchies and pre-modern politics. Works by Takashi Fujitani and Maurizio Peleggi, for example, have explored some of the ways in which Asian monarchies responded to global changes and refashioned imperial authority for the modern era. This panel intends to build on these foundational works to explore the relationship between monarchies, imperial authority, and the development of modern nation-states in Asia.

"Recent Trends in robust geometric computing"
A geometric algorithm makes a combinatorial structure out of
combinatorial and numerical (hence continuous) data. This conversion
from continuous to discrete quantities poses problems when the
continuous data is the result of computations which do not yield
consistent values due to roundoff and approximation floating-point
errors. This leads the algorithm to enter inconsistent states and
sometimes to crash.
The talk will survey the problem and various approaches developed
recently to tackle it.
Alex Samorodnitsky, Rutgers University
"A Deterministic Strongly Polynomial Algorithm for Matrix Scaling
and Approximate Permanents"
We present a deterministic strongly polynomial algorithm that
computes the permanent of a nonnegative n times n matrix to
within a multiplicative factor of e^n. To this end we develop
the first strongly polynomial-time algorithm for matrix scaling
- an important nonlinear optimization problem with many applications.
Our work suggests a simple new (slow) polynomial-time decision
algorithm for bipartite perfect matching, conceptually different
from known approaches.
This is a joint work with Nati Linial and Avi Wigderson.

"A Self Organizing Bin Packing Heuristic"
Suppose there is a random process that generates items of various integer
sizes which we must pack into fixed size bins, and we wish to minimize
the total wasted space in the non-empty bins of the packing. If N is
the number of items generated, it is known that the total waste in
the optimal packing must grow either as O(N), O(sqrt(N)), or O(1),
depending on the probability distribution. Standard bin packing
algorithms such as Best Fit do not typically perform optimally (on those
distributions for which the optimal growth rate is known). This is even
true for offline algorithms such as Best Fit Decreasing.
We show that although in general it is NP-hard to determine the optimal
growth rate given a distribution, this problem can be solved in
pseudo-polynomial time (polynomial in the bin size) using linear
programming. We then describe a remarkably simple online algorithm that
we conjecture, based on extensive empirical tests, performs "optimally"
for ALL distributions. The audience will be encouraged to propose
This is joint work with Janos Csirik, Claire Kenyon, Peter Shor, and
Sanjeev Arora, Princeton University
"The Approximability of NP-hard Problems: A Survey"
Since many optimization problems are NP-hard, researchers have tried to
design approximation algorithms, which provably compute solutions whose
cost is within a small factor of the cost of the optimum solution. During the
past decade, very good approximation algorithms have been designed for
many problems. For some other problems, we now know that no good
approximation algorithms exist if P is different from NP. (In other words,
if a good approximation algorithm exists for these problems, then P is
equal to NP and hence an exact algorithm exists.)
The talk will survey these two areas of active research.

From the Roger Pielke Sr. has been saying this for years department comes this paper where Dr. Richard Betts of the UK Met Office is a co-author. h/t/ to Betts Twitter feed today. It is published in Climate Dynamics. Unfortunately, it has a $40 price tag, since it is part of Springer publications, so I can’t offer much more than the abstract. It does look interesting though, even though it is not observationally based, but model based. However, despite that limitation, when the climate modelers start looking at things other than CO2, that can only be a good thing.
Other efforts include this database from the Université de Lausanne that shows just how much has changed over the last nearly three millenniums: (1000BC to 1850 AD)
Clearly, it is a global scale forcing when viewed at this scale.
The money quote from the new paper is this:
Our results suggest that land-use changes over the past century may represent a more important driver of historical climate change then [sic] previously recognised and an underappreciated source of uncertainty in global forcings and temperature trends over the historical period.
Effective radiative forcing from historical land use change
The effective radiative forcing (ERF) from the biogeophysical effects of historical land use change is quantified using the atmospheric component of the Met Office Hadley Centre Earth System model HadGEM2-ES. The global ERF at 2005 relative to 1860 (1700) is −0.4 (−0.5) Wm−2, making it the fourth most important anthropogenic driver of climate change over the historical period (1860–2005) in this model and larger than most other published values. The land use ERF is found to be dominated by increases in the land surface albedo, particularly in North America and Eurasia, and occurs most strongly in the northern hemisphere winter and spring when the effect of unmasking underlying snow, as well as increasing the amount of snow, is at its largest. Increased bare soil fraction enhances the seasonal cycle of atmospheric dust and further enhances the ERF. Clouds are shown to substantially mask the radiative effect of changes in the underlying surface albedo. Coupled atmosphere–ocean simulations forced only with time-varying historical land use change shows substantial global cooling (dT = −0.35 K by 2005) and the climate resistance (ERF/dT = 1.2 Wm−2 K−1) is consistent with the response of the model to increases in CO2 alone. The regional variation in land surface temperature change, in both fixed-SST and coupled atmosphere–ocean simulations, is found to be well correlated with the spatial pattern of the forced change in surface albedo. The forcing-response concept is found to work well for historical land use forcing—at least in our model and when the forcing is quantified by ERF. Our results suggest that land-use changes over the past century may represent a more important driver of historical climate change then previously recognised and an underappreciated source of uncertainty in global forcings and temperature trends over the historical period.

Golden Fish: An Intelligent Stream Cipher Fuse Memory Modules
Lan Luo,QiongHai Dai,ZhiGuang Qin and ChunXiang Xu
Abstract: In this paper, we use a high-order iterated function generated by block cipher as the nonlinear filter to improve the security of stream cipher. Moreover, by combining the published rounds function in block cipher and OFB as the nonlinear functional mode with an extra memory module, we enable to control the nonlinear complexity of the design. This new approach fuses the block cipher operation mode with two memory modules in one stream cipher. The security of this design is proven by the both periodic and nonlinear evaluation. The periods of this structure is guaranteed by the traditional Linear Feedback Shift Register design and the security of nonlinear characteristic is demonstrated by block cipher algorithm design itself, which is remarkably safer than the previous designs of stream cipher. We also can find such design style at SHA3.

New Delhi/Washington, July 20 (IANS) Foreign and defence ministers of India and the US will hold the first edition of the “2+2” strategic dialogue on security and defense ties in Delhi on September 6, it was announced on Friday.
“Minister of External Affairs Sushma Swaraj and Raksha Mantri (Defence Minister) Nirmala Sitharaman will host the US Secretary of State Michael R. Pompeo and US Secretary of Defence James Mattis, in New Delhi on September 6, 2018, for the inaugural 2+2 dialogue,” External Affairs Ministry spokesperson Raveesh Kumar said.
“This new dialogue format is in pursuit of agreement reached between India and the US during Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s visit to Washington D.C. on June 25-26, 2017,” Kumar said.
“The 2+2 meeting will cover a broad range of bilateral, regional and global issues of shared interest, with a view to strengthening strategic and security ties between the two countries,” he added.
The twice deferred meeting was earlier scheduled to take place in Washington on July 6. But it had to be put off purportedly because US Secretary of State Mike Pompeo was to travel to North Korea for unscheduled meetings with officials of that country.
The first “2+2” meeting was to take place in April. That was also to be hosted by the US but was called off after President Donald Trump suddenly sacked then Secretary of State Rex Tillerson.
Also announcing the new date and venue, the US State Department said: “The inaugural US-India 2+2 Dialogue will be held in New Delhi on September 6.”
It said the two sides will meet “to discuss strengthening strategic, security, and defence cooperation as the US and India jointly address challenges in the Indo-Pacific region and beyond”.
US Ambassador in New Delhi Ken Juster said the US “look(s) forward to productive discussions between our two countries on ways to strengthen US-India strategic, security, and defense cooperation”.
The “2+2” dialogue for strategic level talks was agreed between the two sides during Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s June 2017 US trip. The new format replaces the Strategic and Commercial Dialogue between the foreign and commerce ministers of the two countries held during the Obama administration.
The sudden decision to call off the talks in July triggered speculation that it signalled a lower priority the Trump administration was according to the ties with India.
It was also said that the US may not have been happy with India going ahead with its plan to buy military equipment from Russia despite American sanctions targeting Moscow under the Countering America s Adversaries through Sanctions Act (CAATSA).
Sources in New Delhi said the two sides in their September 6 meetings will seek finalisation of key defence agreements like the Communications, Compatibility, Security Agreement (COMCASA) — a defence foundational pact that will enable India to obtain critical, secure and encrypted defence technologies from other countries.
The sources said Indian and the US ministers would also discuss developments and issues of mutual interest in Afghanistan, Pakistan and Iran. Russia and China are also expected to come up during the talks.
They said India would seek waiver from the CAATSA that can hit Indian military purchases from Russia and also the import of crude oil from Iran which has also been sanctioned.
The US sanctions against Russian oligarchs and companies have threatened India’s proposed purchase of five regiments of Russian-made S-400 Triumf advanced air defense system, a $5.5 billion military deal almost ready to be signed for a closure.
The US has said the CAATSA also prohibits American allies from dealing with sanctioned individuals and companies of Russia, and if New Delhi went ahead with its new military purchases, it would complicate “our ability to work out inter-operability”.
India’s deep military and strategic ties with Russia date back to the beginning of the Cold War even as New Delhi led a movement of “non-aligned” countries that declared their tilt with neither Washington nor Moscow. However, India always leaned toward the then USSR.
India still buys over 60 per cent of its defence equipment from Russia. At present, the Indian armed forces are 70 per cent equipped with Soviet or Russian weapons.
Defence Minister Sitharaman last week said the CAATSA, essentially a US law, was not binding on India and would therefore not affect India’s foreign policy and strategic decisions with other countries. | [

A continuous flow microfluidic demixing process is realized. It utilizes high external electrical fields that are applied over electrically floating noble metal electrodes in an otherwise straight microchannel. The process converts axial electrical potential gradients into lateral molecular selective transport via a structure oriented ensemble of numerous electrodes. While the individual electrodes locally modify the electrolyte distribution by nonlinear electrokinetic effects and concentration polarization, the directed orientation of the electrode array combines the individual polarization zones to a dedicated molecular enrichment against the generated concentration gradient. A homogeneously concentrated electrolyte can be separated into arbitrarily shaped laminae of increased and depleted concentration by the presented microfluidic demixer. | [

Russia’s first new nuclear plant since the Soviet era has been officially opened. More than 20 years after its conception, Rostov 1 is currently operating at low capacity. The reactor had been almost complete when the government froze construction on all Russian nuclear plants in 1990 following protests over the Chernobyl accident. However, amid increasing power shortages across the country, the Atomic Energy Ministry allocated funds in 1999 for the completion of several nuclear projects, including Rostov. The VVER-1000 is due to reach full capacity in July or August and commercial start-up is planned for October.
The country now has 10 plants that are producing about 12% of its electricity. The last launching of a nuclear power unit took place in 1993, when Balakovo 4 was put into operation. | [

In 2009, a team of astronomers used the Swift Spacecraft to measure the luminosity output of a distant Quasar, named S5 0014+81, and measure the mass of the central black hole. To their surprise, they found out that this black hole contains actually 40 billion solar masses, that is 10,000 times more massive than the black hole at the center of our galaxy. This makes it one of the most massive black holes ever discovered, more than six times the value of the black hole of Messier 87, which was thought to be the largest black hole for almost 60 years, and was coined to be an “ultramassive” black hole. The Schwarzschild radius of this black hole is 118 billion kilometers. In the picture above the event horizon of this ultramassive black hole is compared to oursolar system (i.imgur.com).

Analyzing the categories and characteristics of Ceramic substrate PCB
The use of PCB is quite common all around the world. However, there were times when only FR4 PCBs used to be installed in various appliances, whereas now the time has changed. Apart from the traditional material, ceramic PCBs are also gaining significant popularity.
Many reasons could have compelled people to opt for these PCBs, especially in the circuits requiring high density. The properties of ceramic make them suitable for PCB manufacture, which comprises being very stable, containing versatility, and at the same time offering insulation as well, which is very much required for circuit boards.
What is Ceramic substrate PCB?
Before ceramic PCBs were introduced, the traditional material was used to manufacture these PCBs; however, that was not able to handle harsh environments and hence was subject to flaws.
After the ceramic substrate PCB, this problem got resolved, and because of its capability to handle harsh environmental conditions, it is the best substitute for traditional materials. The most important property is its capability to handle a lot of pressure and high temperatures.
What are the categories of Ceramic substrate PCB?
Considering a detailed analysis of the ceramic substrate, PCB is divided based on two categories. One is the kind of substrate that will be used, and the second is the manufacturing process that will be undertaken. Here you will find a detailed analysis of both aspects.
There are many options, and each type of substrate has its property. So, below we discussed the three common kinds of substrates selected to create these PCBs, along with the properties they possess.
Because of its perfect thermal conductivity, an aluminum nitride is an ideal form of ceramic substrate used for PCBs. It has a coefficient of thermal expansion that even meets silicon which is also a plus point.
However, it is pretty expensive compared to other options. At the same time, it has one drawback: if even a little layer of oxygen enters it, the continuity of this kind of PCB is impacted.
Beryllium oxide is one of the most commonly used materials for ceramic PCBs, and it is used commonly for electronic appliances and produces high thermal circuit boards. However, after reaching 300 degrees, the temperature of this material drops very quickly, which is sometimes a problem with certain appliances.
Aluminum oxide is the best option to consider when manufacturing ceramic substrate PCBs. They are rich in the best chemical properties, have very high strength, and are suitable for various electronic appliances.
The best part is that using this kind of ceramic, different shapes can be manufactured, and at the same time, it could be subjected to technical manufacturing processes.
There are many kinds of manufacturing processes that can be chosen to manufacture the ceramic substrate PCB, and the prevalent ones have been discussed below:
The HTCC PCBs are such that no matter how high they cater to the temperature, they stay the same with no damage. In this method of producing ceramic substrate PCB, the first stage is the stage of fabrication, where the raw material of the ceramic substrate is used.
The temperature used for baking the HTCC process is somewhere between 1600 to 1700 degrees centigrade, which is quite a lot. This kind of PCB is backed with a very high melting point, and metals like manganese and tungsten are used for circuit traces.
In the case of LTCC, the ceramic substrate is used in combination with glass for a certain percentage. This is done so that the binding of the material is sufficient. This combined mixture is left on a surface so that it gets dried.
Once the substrate is dried, holes are drilled depending on what kind of design is in the layers of the circuit. The fabrication process is then carried out by baking it in an oven.
The direct bonded copper process is where there is a copper layer and a ceramic layer, and between these two layers, oxygen is introduced. This causes copper oxide to create a liquid, and the chemical reaction followed by a relatively high temperature makes a penetration between copper and ceramic to produce the PCB.
Direct copper plating is a process in which a copper metal layer is deposited on the ceramic substrate. The process through which this deposition process takes place is known as the vacuum coating process. Then a photoresist process is carried out, followed by etching to remove unwanted material.
As the name suggests, this method uses laser energy which ionizes the metal and the ceramic substrate together, creating a thick layer of PCB circuit.
There are various advantages of ceramic substrate PCB, and some of these advantages are discussed below:
● The performance of ceramic substrate PCBs proves to be relatively better than traditional PCBs.
● The PCBs made using ceramic substrate are featured with heat dissipation, increasing the life of the electronic appliances they will be incorporated into.
● The process properties of a ceramic PCB are good because the ceramic itself has outstanding mechanical strength, which helps make the best ceramic PCBs.
● Ceramic PCBs can withstand high thermal conductivity and high voltage and protect appliances from damage.

Baxter Dury + The Orielles
Win tickets to an exclusive gig, including the first performance of Baxter Dury's upcoming new material. Simply complete the competition form at the end of the post.
The son of punk hero Ian Dury, Baxter Dury has been part of British countercultural history since the age of five when he appeared on the cover of one his father's albums. Ahead of the release of his fifth album through Heavenly Recordings (in the UK), Baxter Dury will play London's iconic 100 Club, a venue synonymous with the rise of British punk and subculture.
The new album promises to further Baxter Dury's strong reputation for intelligent, honest and considered pop music. The singer explains the inspirations behind the album's emotional content:
“You can have loads of ideas or get all political, but actually there’s nothing more simply damming than heartbreak and nothing else is more life-changing. You could get shot and split up with your girlfriend in the same week and you’d still think about your girlfriend. So that happened, but I used it. Last year was tough, so I just spent my time concentrating on this, nothing else."
Feeling confident about his new songs, Baxter goes on to state:
“But I really like this record. My old man once said of a friend of mine: ‘Your friend has got pronoia. It’s the opposite of paranoia, it’s when you suffer from thinking everything is too brilliant.’ Well I’ve got a nice case of pronoia at the moment.”
Live support on the night will come from emerging Halifax trio The Orielles whose acclaimed DIY ethic and reinvigorated indie sound scored them a deal with Heavenly. The band recently released their single 'Only Bought It For The Bottle' and also sold out headline London gigs at The Social and The Finsbury.

WORLD WAR TWO. ARMOURED FIGHTING VEHICLES & SELF-PROPELLED ARTILLERY
The BAZ amphibious armoured car had a distinctive boat- shaped hull and mounted a 37mm gun, plus two MGs. (TM)
The earliest of these Aerosans light sled type vehicles, first deployed in the Winter War against Finland (November 1939 to March 1940), were only constructed from plywood and powered by obsolete aeroplane engines. They were used for moving vital supplies over deep snow, which was impassable to normal wheeled or tracked vehicles. Some of the OSGA-6 (also known as the NKL-6) and KM 5 Aerosans were also used, fitted with a roof-mounted machine gun on a ring mount to support raiding parties (four or five men on the sled and four more towed behind on skis). Later, improved versions, known as NKL-16/41 and 16/42 were produced and these led on to the production of an armoured version, the NKL-26 armoured Aerosan, with 10mm armoured plate on the nose. Organised into battalions, with forty-five Aerosans divided into three companies, they were used mainly in the north on fiat ground (over frozen lakes and rivers) as the sled had difficulty ascending hills.
The NKL-16/41 Aerosan could be fitted with a machine gun for raiding, but was mainly used for transporting men or stores. (TM)
From 1942 onwards, the Red Army produced a comprehensive range of SP assault guns and achieved major success, taking note of what the Germans had done, by keeping the number of different models to a minimum. They had begun development of SP artillery much earlier of course, in the 1930s, using tank chassis to mount a number of different weapons, ranging from 37mm anti-tank guns to 152mm ex-naval guns and even larger calibre howitzers. However, the muddled thinking of men like General Pavlov, combined with Stalin's savage purge of his real tank experts like Tukhachevsky, held back all development. It was not until the formation of the new tank and mechanised corps from 1942, that the desperate need for mechanised artillery to support them was fully realised.
The NKL-26 Aerosan was the armoured version used for raiding. It was normally fitted with a single DT machine gun on the roof. (TM)
The SU-76 self-propelled gun was known as the 'Suka' (the Bitch) by its crews as it lacked any overhead protection. A later version the SU-76B was better protected, but proved to be too heavy and did not enter service. (TM)
The SU-122 was a medium self-propelled gun. based on the chassis of the T-34 tank. It entered service in 1942. its main role was to support infantry (like the German Sturmgeschütz). (TM)
In fact, designing the first of these new mechanised guns had already begun as the armoured forces themselves had grown tired of the painfully slow progress being made by the Directorate of Artillery towards mechanisation caused in part, it has to be said, by the unreliability of many of the early means of mechanising the guns. In early 1942, development work had started on a light self-propelled gun using the T-60 light tank chassis and mounting the standard 76.2mm ZiS-3 divisional gun. It was called OSU-76 (Opytnaya Samokhodnaya Ustanovka - experimental mechanised mounting). The chassis was found to be too small, so work was transferred to the larger T-70 chassis. By moving the driver, engines and fuel tanks all to the front, it was possible to mount the gun on a slightly lengthened chassis, at the rear in a simple open-topped, box-shaped hull. Standardised as the SU-76 the first twenty-six were built in 1942. They were not a success, proving to be as unreliable as the early T-70 tank. This was mainly because of the engine arrangement, so it was decided to follow the same configuration as the T-70M, which had the two engines in line. Some hull modifications were necessary and the unproved SU-76M started to roll off the assembly lines in large numbers. It had only mediocre success in the anti-tank role, not only because the Germans started to use better armoured tanks, hut also because the effective range of the SU-76 was greatly reduced when tiring AP ammunition. In the infantry support artillery role, where it could use the over 11,000 metres range of the gun to full advantage, it performed much better. However, it was not liked by the crews, because of | [

Recombinant erythropoietin (r-EPO) was administered to 37 patients with advanced, transfusion-dependent and chemo-resistant multiple myeloma (MM), at the fixed dose of 10,000/U s.c., 3 times a week, for 2 months. Thirteen patients (35.1%) achieved a significant response in terms of complete abolition of red cell transfusions. Factors significantly predictive of response were: a) inappropriate production of endogenous EPO, as expressed by a reduced observed/predicted ratio; b) presence of a consistent number of circulating erythroid precursors BFU-E; c) low serum levels of tumor necrosis factor (TNF) and interleukin-1 (IL-1), cytokines with inhibitory activity on erythropoiesis; d) a single line of previously received chemotherapy. Renal failure, bone marrow plasma cell infiltration, serum levels of IL-6 and other main clinical and laboratory parameters did not affect significantly the response to r-EPO. High fluorescence reticulocytes (HFR) and soluble transferrin receptor (sTfR) values were useful to detect an early stimulation of erythropoiesis in responders, while a high percentage of circulating hypochromic erythrocytes (HE), as assessed by an automated counter, identified those patients developing functional iron deficiency during r-EPO treatment. We conclude that about one-third of severely anemic patients with advanced MM, unresponsive to chemotherapy, may benefit by r-EPO therapy. The clinical management of these patients can be accomplished using non-invasive parameters, such as sTfR, HFR and HE.
