What are the 7 axioms?
What are the 7 Axioms of Euclids?
- If equals are added to equals, the wholes are equal.
- If equals are subtracted from equals, the remainders are equal.
- Things that coincide with one another are equal to one another.
- The whole is greater than the part.
- Things that are double of the same things are equal to one another.
What is a postulate in geometry?
A statement, also known as an axiom, which is taken to be true without proof. Postulates are the basic structure from which lemmas and theorems are derived. The whole of Euclidean geometry, for example, is based on five postulates known as Euclid’s postulates.
What is the theorem in geometry?
theorem, in mathematics and logic, a proposition or statement that is demonstrated. In geometry, a proposition is commonly considered as a problem (a construction to be effected) or a theorem (a statement to be proved).
How many axioms are there?
Answer: There are five axioms. As you know it is a mathematical statement which we assume to be true. Thus, the five basic axioms of algebra are the reflexive axiom, symmetric axiom, transitive axiom, additive axiom and multiplicative axiom.
What are axioms 9?
Euclid’s axioms. 1. Things which are equal to the same thing are equal to one another. 2. If equals are added to equals, the wholes are equal.
What are the 5 postulates in geometry?
- A straight line segment can be drawn joining any two points.
- Any straight line segment can be extended indefinitely in a straight line.
- Given any straight lines segment, a circle can be drawn having the segment as radius and one endpoint as center.
- All Right Angles are congruent.
What are the 4 theorems in geometry?
- Congruent Supplements Theorem. If two angles are supplements to the same angle or of congruent angles, then the two angles are congruent.
- Right Angles Theorem. If two angles are both supplement and congruent then they are right angles.
- Same-Side Interior Angles Theorem.
- Vertical Angles Theorem.
What is a theorem in geometry example?
A result that has been proved to be true (using operations and facts that were already known). Example: The “Pythagoras Theorem” proved that a2 + b2 = c2 for a right angled triangle.
What are the 5 theorems?
In particular, he has been credited with proving the following five theorems: (1) a circle is bisected by any diameter; (2) the base angles of an isosceles triangle are equal; (3) the opposite (“vertical”) angles formed by the intersection of two lines are equal; (4) two triangles are congruent (of equal shape and size …
Can a standard axiom be derived from a Frege axiom?
Each of Frege’s axioms can be derived from the standard axioms, and each of the standard axioms can be derived from Frege’s axioms. This means that the two sets of axioms are interdependent and there is no axiom in one set which is independent from the other set.
What are the two axioms of Frege’s PC?
Frege’s PC and standard PC share two common axioms: THEN-1 and THEN-2. Notice that axioms THEN-1 through THEN-3 only make use of (and define) the implication operator, whereas axioms FRG-1 through FRG-3 define the negation operator.
How many axioms are in Frege’s propositional calculus?
Frege’s propositional calculus is equivalent to any other classical propositional calculus, such as the “standard PC” with 11 axioms. Frege’s PC and standard PC share two common axioms: THEN-1 and THEN-2.
Can you use Hume’s principle as an axiom?
So by setting aside the problematic Basic Law V and the derivation of Hume’s Principle, one can focus on Frege’s derivations of the basic propositions of arithmetic using Hume’s Principle as an axiom. | [

At a recent Jefferson County WSU plant clinic, a client brought in fruit with tiny worms in them. The fruits were blackberry, strawberry and cherry. The plant clinicians suspected Spotted Wing Drosophila (SWD).
SWD is a soft fruit pest and has been spotted around the PNW since 2009
Since the larvae stage of the SWD is difficult to identify, the plant clinicians asked the client to set up a trap to collect the adults. The following link shows the best ways to trap and how to identify adults: http://cru.cahe.wsu.edu/
Once the pest is positively identified, the following links will be sent to the client for control and further information:
2 were SWDs ( one male and one female) and the third some kind of a tiny bee- link insect with a thick waist and striped abdomen. The red eyes were hard to observe, but the spot on the wing tip of the male was very obvious through a 10x hand lens. Vinegar turned out to be not the best preservative. It was interesting in that the larvae were almost translucent and had black mouth parts. They were tiny and very fast moving making them hard to see in the scope. We had better luck with a 10x hand lens.We were fairly certain that we had SWD from the larvae and read a caution to ID with adults only as larvae can be tricky until you have seen many. | [

Bluetick Coonhound - Dixie - Large - Young - Female - Dog
You can see it in the look on her face, Dixie is a happy, happy girl. She has a lot of personality and would be the perfect 'partner in crime' for an active person. Dixie would do well with an active family or single with a big fenced yard and time to work with training. She is enrolled in obedience classes and is amazing. Dixie is a little too focused on cats and would do the best in a home without them. Very small dogs could become a 'toy'... | [

Shadows, Mirrors and Flames. Three things we have all seen and not given much thought to. What if in each of these things you could find entire alternate planes of existance? Shadows move but what they are shadowing does not. Mirrors show us what others can easily see. Flames dance and twirl inviting you to dance only to scorch you when you get close. These three things hold much mystery. What if you could harness their powers? Heh...
In the middle of the sky over the land of Dankij there is a door. The door is fixed in an upright position and appears to be fastened to the very sky itself. Worldwide rumors say it has been there since The Creation. What could be behind this door?
When night falls, we find peace in the knowledge that daytime will return soon, and vice versa. But what if the world was split: daytime and night are two different, coexistent worlds, each with it's own laws and rules. At dawn and sunset, our soul switches to inhabit our other being, our 'twin'. | [

A new scientific study has further deepened one of the longstanding mysteries of solar physics. For decades scientists have struggled to explain why the solar wind accelerates as it moves away from the Sun in defiance of gravity.
In more recent years, theorists have suggested that so-called transverse magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) waves could explain both the problems of solar wind acceleration and anomalous coronal heating. However, for the first time researchers using the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) have directly measured the transverse wave motions in solar-polar plumes.
They have found that the energies of the so-called magnetic waves fall four to ten times below the minimum requirement to explain the acceleration of the solar wind. Dr. Michael Clarage weighs in on this discussion.

Understanding Optical Loss & testing concepts in fiber systems requires a general understanding of the following major components:
Glass fiber used for data communications comes in 2 general types:
- Single mode fiber is used to transmit 1270 - 1625 nm light over long distances and high data rates, most commonly at 1310 and 1550 nm. DWDM (Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing) systems operate in the C, S and L bands in the region of 1450 - 1625 nm, and CWDM (Corse Wavelength Division Multiplexing) systems operate over 1270 - 1610 nm. A single ray of light travels down the fiber core, with a mode field diameter of about 9.5 µm. Single mode fiber comes in varying grades typically designed to optimize cost, general loss, bending loss, chromatic dispersion, polarization mode dispersion, and with varying levels of water peak performance at 1383 nm.
Typical single mode loss is 0.35 dB / Km at 1310 nm, which with a typical link loss of 20 dB, gives a maximum link length of 57 Km.
The lowest loss region is at 1550 nm. Best performance is achieved with for example Corning SMF-28® ULL with <0.16 dB/Km. With a typical link loss of 20 dB, this gives a maximum link length of 125 Km The ability to achieve such long transmission distances between repeaters or optcal amplifiers is a major factor in the success of fiber optics.
Typical single mode fiber operates from 1270 - 1650 nm. Wavelengths below the "cut off wavelength" of 1260 nm are transmitted as multimode light by standard 9.5 µm core fiber, and specialist small-core fiber is required to achieve single mode operation below 1270 nm. Wavelengths above 1625 nm are more heavily attenuated.
Bend Insensitive Fiber offers improved bend tolerance for installation intensive FTTX applications.
Fig 2.2: Typical attenuation graphs for single mode fiber.
Note that the loss is sensitive to wavelength.
- Multimode fiber is commonly used to transmit light for shorter distances and moderate data rates usually at 850 nm, and less commonly at 1300 nm. Multiple rays of light travel down the core, which has a diameter of 62.5 µm or 50 µm. Modern 50u core types have higher bandwidth and couple well with VCSEL lasers at 850 nm. Older 62.5 µm core types give better coupled power from an LED, but significantly lower bandwidth. Multimode fiber comes in varying grades typically designed to optimize bandwidth or pulse dispersion. The core has a graded refractive index structure, to reduce pulse dispersion of the various light rays. It is therefore more complicated to manufacture than single mode fiber.

Fiber cable loss discussion
The above graphs show typical loss when the glass is mechanically unstressed. Additional loss will be created under stress, and this is termed "micro bend loss". Micro bend loss is typically caused by: kinking, tension, heat or cold, crushing, winding onto a drum, excessively sharp bending, defective manufacture, poor cable design, or defective cable manufacture. Micro bend loss for any given fiber stress, usually increases with increasing wavelength, particularly above 1550 nm. The above graph also fails to show rapidly increasing attenuation above about 1625 nm.
Multimode loss is inherently more uncertain than single mode loss, with additional variables as follows:
- Attenuation varies depending on the power distribution (beam geometry) across the fiber core. So there can be mismatch between the measured loss, and the loss experienced by an installed system. Therfore to be meaningful, both loss measuring and system performance specifications should use a defined modal distribution to ensure that results are repeatable across different meters and systems.
- When transmitting coherent light from lasers, coherent interference between multiple light paths creates instantaneously changing loss characteristics. This is readily seen with a power meter, where moving multimode patch leads around creates obvious power variations. For this reason, LED sources are preferred for loss testing multimode fiber systems, although LEDs are now rarely used on transmission equipment.
- LED test sources do provide more stable loss readings, but also have other uncertain characteristics. The center wavelength, spectral width and modal power distribution in the coupled fiber can vary significantly, resulting in varying loss measurements. So the characteristics of LED test sources should comply with various standards.
- Modern multimode systems almost invariably operate at 850 nm with VCSEL transmitters.
Connector & other device loss discussion
In medium to long distance applications, it is assumed that fiber attenuation will dominate any losses.
In short distance & PON networks, loss caused by devices such as connectors and optical splitters may dominate or require specific handling depending on the situation. For example, a 32-split PON network will have a spl | [

It’s been a very successful week of sports in the ACC. Virginia wins the national title in Men’s Tennis, North Carolina won the national title in women’s lacrosse, and Duke finished the hat trick with a national championship in men’s lacrosse. The NCAA baseball tournament seedings were released Monday, and the ACC is well represented with 8 teams, 5 regional hosts, and 3 National top 8 seeds. Could the ACC add a 4th and 5th National Title in a few weeks in baseball and this week in golf? Georgia Tech and Florida state are competing with 30 teams in the NCAA golf tournament. OK ACC bloggers what’s your take on things?
TarHeelFanblog is feeling pretty good after North Carolina got the NCAA baseball tournament’s number 1 seed and a Women’s national title in lacrosse.
StreakingtheLawn says meet man Mitchell Frank: The Clutch Cavalier. Who’s he? He’s the tennis player that down 5-3 and a break to UCLA’s Adrian Puget rallied to deliver Virginia the National Title.
The Florida State Seminoles earned a top 8 seed in the College Baseball tournament. Tomahawknation tells us the committee did the right thing by looking at the Noles body of work. I agree, but NC State still should have been a top 8 seed too.
By the way NC State blog Backing the Pack compares NC State to an Oregon Duck team that got the last National Seed over the Wolfpack. Do you think NC State deserved a national seed?
ShakintheSouthLand was prophetic in assessing Clemson’s poor chances of hosting a regional following a disastrous ACC tournament that saw the Tigers lose all 3 of their games. It turned out to be true. Clemson fans complaining about having to go to Columbia for the 2nd year in a row? Stop it… The Tigers had their shot and blew it with their poor play. Don’t leave it in the hands of the committee next time Tigers.
Lastly we couldn’t finish this post without mentioning the team and school most pumped about hosting a regional, the Virginia Tech Hokies. GobblerCountry says the Hokies have a chance to make history. | [

Lake Alfred commissioners balk at overnight rig parking
LAKE ALFRED -- A planning board recommendation would have allowed truck owners living in the city to park their rigs up to two hours in residential areas, but that motion was quashed by a unanimous city commission vote Monday evening.
At the same time, the commissioners added restrictions regarding truck parking in commercial areas. The main restriction dictates that truckers won't be allowed to park in C-1 or C-2 retail areas unless they are at a business to make a delivery.
The planning board previously recommended that truckers be allowed to park in C-1 and C-2 commercial areas.
As for C-3 commercial and M-1 industrial areas which govern outdoor sales businesses and light industries, truckers can continue to park in those zones.
The matter of whether to allow trucks and motorhomes longer than 25 feet to park in residential areas and certain commercial zones has been on the minds of commissioners and planning board members for nearly a year.
In that time, previous planning board recommendations were rejected by the city commission and sent back to the board for more work.
The board's revised plan came back Monday evening to the commission. Planners recommended that truckers be allowed two hours to park their trucks at home. This would allow the truckers time to unpack and wash their rig.
"A lot of citizens last night weren't happy with the planning board recommendations," said City Manager Jim Drumm. "They were out in force last night."
He said some in the audience were truckers who said they needed to be able to park in their yards to work on their trucks.
But there were others at the meeting who were not in favor of truck parking in residential areas. Some were concerned about the safety of children. Drumm said a petition with 260 signatures was presented.
"Then the commission amended the ordinance to read, no truck parking in residential areas at all. It is much stricter than what the board had recommended," he explained. "And in the end, the commission voted 5-0. Trucks can't park in commercial areas unless they are on business there."
Commissioner Rick Foster said a main problem with the board's recommendation was it left the times of parking wide open.
He was concerned that truckers would get in late at night from a long haul and then would clean out and vacuum the truck.
Noting there are at least 10 truckers who live in Lake Alfred, Foster added, "the truckers we have are good people. But our citizens are also good people. They spoke up and they said, 'look, we don't want this in our neighborhoods.' "
He said some in the audience tried to compare garbage trucks and school buses with semis.
"The garbage trucks are there to render a service," Foster explained. "But with the semis, there's more wear and tear on the streets. And some of the streets are already much narrower. But I don't blame the truck drivers, and I know it's a problem."
But he wants the city's resident truck owners to know that the city isn't singling out Lake Alfred's truckers, but neighboring cities also have similar ordinances that prohibit trucks from being parked in residential areas.
Among other things, a semi represents a man's business, Foster added.
"But if a resident wants to run a business in his residence, there are also regulations that do things such as limit parking. But you've got to be fair across the board." | [

Prime Minister Viktor Orbán said the novel coronavirus in Hungary is spreading at a faster pace than ever, putting the country under increasing pressure until a vaccine is at hand.
According to MTI, PM Orbán said that the government was ready to open additional hospitals and to assign more doctors and nurses “in an effort to keep up with the task”. The prime minister said he expected the second wave of the coronavirus epidemic to last longer and be more difficult than the first one. He said it would require restructuring while simultaneously increasing health-care workers’ capability of carrying burdens.
Commenting on the agreement reached between the government and the Hungarian Chamber of Doctors (MOK) on substantially raising the wages of doctors, PM Orbán said the chamber had been “pushing” its proposals to the government over several months, triggering a debate in the cabinet on whether a substantial wage hike in the sector would be in conflict with necessary economy protection measures.
“This is the moment when we need to stand together, when we need to achieve a breakthrough in improving doctors’ pay,” PM Orbán said, noting that on MOK’s proposal, gratuity payments were going to be eliminated from the system. | [

Pelagic (open ocean) species are those that are found in open ocean waters, rather than in waters close to shore or inland.
Away from the shoreline, Victoria’s deeper open waters support plankton, sea jellies, squid, large mammals including fur seals, Bottlenose Dolphins (Tursiops truncatus) and Southern Right Whales (Eubalaena australis), seabirds such as petrels, Australasian Gannets (Morus serrator), and Little Penguins (Eudyptula minor) and fish including pilchards, anchovies, barracudas, Silver Trevally (Pseudocaranx georgianus), and Jack Mackerel (Trachurus declivis).
Humpback whales in the open waters of Bass Strait 📷 Ken Flannigan (iNaturalist, CC-BY-NC)
Pelagic fauna may gather together (aggregate) for different reasons. Many pelagic fishes school as a means of protection against predators. Aggregation may also occur because many individuals are attracted to a particularly favourable habitat. For example, Orange Roughy (Hoplostethus atlanticus) aggregate around seamounts, pinnacles and canyons as they seek out habitats with particular hydrologic profiles. Southern Right Whales migrate from the Antarctic to Victorian waters and gather together in preferred nursery areas along the western Victorian coast to give birth and nurse calves.
Seabirds, predatory fish and marine mammals all congregate in areas where there is a reliable food supply, such as the upwellings. The Bonney coast of western Victoria is one of only 13 known areas of frequent aggregation for Blue Whales (Balaenoptera musculus).
Plankton and nekton
The water column in Victorian marine waters is a habitat for drifting plankton and for active-swimming animals including fish (also known as nekton). This habitat is obviously present throughout the Victorian marine environment, but it is considerably different along different environmental gradients.
The temperature of marine and coastal waters fluctuate seasonally. There are greater temperature ranges in bays and estuaries, as the smaller bodies of water are more quickly heated and cooled. Ocean temperature is influenced by currents and upwellings. The east of the state is influenced by the warmer East Australia Current, whereas the Otway and Central Victorian Bioregions are influenced by the temperate South Australia Current and Northern Bass Strait waters. The Flinders Bioregion is under the influence of the South Australia Current, East Australia Current, Northern Bass Strait and cold subantarctic surface waters.
Other important environmental gradients include greater wave action in shallower waters and greater turbidity closer to shore. In bays and estuaries, the habitat is highly influenced by nutrient runoff, suspended matter and freshwater inputs from rivers and other drainages.
Plankton are a major source of food for benthic (bottom-dwelling) invertebrates and nekton. They also play a key role in the carbon, nitrogen and other nutrient cycling in marine systems. The photosynthesising fraction of plankton, phytoplankton, is highly productive. In Port Phillip Bay it is responsible for at least two-thirds of primary production.
Diatoms and dinoflagellates are the dominant type of phytoplankton. The abundance of phytoplankton communities in Victoria varies depending on the season, with peaks during summer and lowest concentrations during winter. This is probably because temperatures are higher in the summer and more light tends to be available, while factors limit abundance during colder months.
Phytoplankton abundance is also limited by the availability of nutrients, particularly nitrogen. Concentrations of phytoplankton are often highest in estuaries and river mouths, where there is greater input of nutrient from terrestrial runoff.
Phytoplankton are preyed on by zooplankton (small, floating animals). Zooplankton include a wide variety of organisms, including amoeboids, crustaceans, jellyfish, invertebrate larvae and fish larvae. Crustaceans, particularly copepods and cladocerans, make up a large proportion of the zooplankton in Port Phillip. The composition of the zooplankton, similar to that of phytoplankton, shows some influence of seasonality.
In Victoria, active-swimming pelagic organisms, nekton, are predominantly fishes and cephalopods, but also include marine mammals, penguins and crustaceans (e.g. krill). Nekton play an important role in the trophic pathways of Victorian marine ecosystems. They facilitate the transfer of energy from plankton, through the food web, to higher order organisms; for example plankton are a food source for small nektonic species which in turn are prey for other predators.
High abundances of nekton are often | [

Part Three: Las Vegas Big Smoke Sunday Sessions
- November 12, 2008 |
- By Gregory Mottola
It doesn't take much to transform a ballroom into a cigar-rolling gallery. All you really need are a few tables, some tobacco and about 500 enthusiastic Big Smoke attendees ready to learn the art of cigar making.
Ernesto Perez-Carrillo of El Credito Cigars, the maker of La Gloria Cubana brand, has been turning hotel ballrooms into makeshift cigar-rolling factories for years by orchestrating the Big Smoke Roll Your Own seminar. Participants learn how to roll a cigar, gain greater appreciation for the craft and have fun doing so, but there is an added incentive. Prizes awarded to those who roll the best cigar, the grand prize being an all-expense-paid trip to Miami for a tour of the El Credito factory.
This year's seminar started late Sunday morning, as always, Big Smoke aficionados finished a well-needed gourmet breakfast put together by renowned chef Charlie Palmer. Most of the people filing into the room were operating on wild boar meat, coffee, cigars and the notoriously spicy Bloody Bull, a very potent mixed drink served with breakfast. Now that they had the essentials in their system, they were ready to roll a cigar like a professional. Each participant was handed a finished La Gloria Cubana Wavell cigar to smoke, a wrapper-less cigar for the rolling and a piece of wrapper leaf. Each mini rolling station was outfitted with a razor blade serving as a chavetta, a plastic board on which to work, a cup of water to moisten the leaf and a tiny cup of gomma, which is a natural gum used as an adhesive.
"Outside of the birth of your first child, this will be the best experience of your life," said Tim Black, last year's winner.
At center stage was guest roller Leo Peraza, whose inveterate hands were projected on two large screens showing the audience step-by-step how a cigar should be rolled. While the session is called Roll Your Own, the seminar really teaches you how to cut and apply the cover leaf. The bunch of long-filler tobacco has already been clinched with a binder and set in a mold, so putting on the wrapper is all that's left to do. But, as many of the prospective rollers found out, that one step was not so easy.
This man rolled a cigar dog.
The audience laughed. Many remembered from previous Big Smoke Weekends that this was part of his hosting style: sarcastic humor. Although the seminar was hosted by Perez-Carrillo, it was El Credito marketing director Mike Giannini who served as master of ceremonies. Giannini always adds a droll, game-show-style energy to the session.
All attention, however, was directed to the screens, where everyone could see how Leo cut the wrapper leaf, moistened and finessed the tobacco, positioned the cigar, and rolled. Leo made it look easy, rolling and finishing a cigar in a seemingly single motion. How many years of experience does it take before producing such perfect cigars becomes second nature?
The audience was instructed to first prepare the Ecuadoran Sumatra leaf by stretching it out, rendering it as wrinkle-free as possible without tearing it. Intermittent dabs of water made the leaf more pliable. The next step was to cut the perimeter of the leaf in order to smooth out the edges, then cut it into a sickle shape. After that, it was time to place the bunch on the wrapper leaf for rolling; to slightly stretch the leaf the apprentices were instructed to keep it taut. This produces a tighter seam around the cigar and a better-looking stick in general.
Perez-Carrillo paced the room, encouraging the amateur cigarmakers, but at the same time taking friendly shots at some of the sloppier rolled cigars.
"This cigar reminds me of something," said Perez-Carrillo, holding up someone's work. "It reminds me of when I go out to take my dog for a walk."
Ken Schnide, winner of the best-rolled cigar competition.
Among the eclectic group of cigars presented were many that turned out impressive. Runner-up contestants were awarded boxes of La Gloria Cubana Serie R and Reserva Figurado cigars. The best-rolled cigar was judged to be crafted by Ken Schnide. He walked away with two humidors filled with La Gloria Cubana 2006 Serie R Limitadas, and will be flown down to Florida for an extensive tour of the El Credito cigar factory with Perez-Carrillo as his guide, and ultimately immersed in the cigar culture of Miami.

Indexed on: 30 Sep '09Published on: 30 Sep '09Published in: International Journal of Obesity
Childhood obesity is a growing global epidemic. Recent studies indicate that obesity and related metabolic traits are highly heritable. Increasing evidence suggests that growth hormone (GH) and the insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) axis have important functions in regulating adiposity and insulin sensitivity. Five single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) at IGF-binding protein-3 (IGFBP3) were genotyped to find their associations with IGF-1 activity level and common clinical metabolic traits.We examined the associations of five SNPs at IGFBP3 with serum IGF-I and IGFBP-3 levels, as well as with obesity-related metabolic traits in 981 Hong Kong Chinese adolescents. Factor analysis was used to reduce the intercorrelated variables to five factor scores indicating body composition, blood pressure, IGF-I activity, triglyceride (TG)+high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) and total cholesterol (TC)+low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) factor scores.There was a strong association between the -202A/C polymorphism (rs2854744) and IGF-I activity (P=1.2 x 10(-6)) and TC+LDL-C factor scores (P=0.0085), corrected for age and sex. The C allele was associated with decreased IGFBP-3 levels (P=1.21 x 10(-13)), increased IGF-I/IGFBP-3 molar ratio (P=5.22 x 10(-6)) and decreased LDL-C (P=0.020). There was also a significant association between a G/A polymorphism at the 3' flanking sequence (rs13223993) of the IGFBP3 gene and the TG+HDL-C factor score (P=0.0013). The minor A allele carriers of rs13223993 had a lower HDL-C (P=0.0067) level and a tendency toward a high TG level. Haplotype analysis did not increase the significance of associations between single SNPs and phenotypes.Our results support the function of IGFBP3 gene polymorphisms in modulating IGF-I activity and lipid levels in adolescents. Given the prognostic significance of IGF-I, IGFBPs and lipids on risk of diabetes, obesity and cancer, long-term studies are required to clarify the clinical meaning of these findings.

Mr and Mrs Bo Jo Jones Author:Ann Head MR. AND MRS. BO JO JONES is an achingly familiar story in countless American homes. The bride is sixteen and pregnant, the groom is seventeen and astonished. — They're thrown together in a marriage of necessity which abruptly abbreviates the education-and social life-of both; which thrusts the football hero and his child-wife into a playhouse wi... more »th real problems, into a new adulthood where kids have to grow up fast.
They're high school juniors and they're in trouble. The kind of trouble you don't tell your parents about until you've fixed it up-one way or another. For Bo Jo Jones, it's the end of high school football and college. He's about to become a father. It's farewell to proms, expensive dresses, and the safe and comfortable life her parents have planned for July Greher. July is one of the 'lucky ones'; at least her child will be legitimate.
Ann Head has written an extraordinary novel of two young people-too soon adults. Quietly and humorously told, it is a story of real people in real life situations...and real problems.
Mr. and Mrs. Bo Jo Jones was selected as one of the recommended Young Adult titles by the American Library Association for 1967. It's a book mature young men and women ought to read.
"Mr. and Mrs. Bo Jo Jones is about high school marriages. Ann Head tells the story candidly, honestly and discreetly. Parents and teacher cannot possible take exception to a serious teenage problem handled with such good taste... | [

JAE is thrilled to offer a dance performance at Hope On A String’s summer fundraiser in NYC this July. We have partnered with this change making non-profit for over six years in Haiti, providing Haitian Folkloric dance workshops during their summer programming. HOAS provides free music and performing arts education in Arcahaie, Haiti and the organization has created a beautiful community at their arts center.
Join Hope on a String to celebrate the power of music and the arts to empower youth and revitalize communities, and support the organization's mission to foster social transformation in Haiti. The evening will feature music from HOAS students, and a special performance by Jean Appolon Expressions, a mesmerizing synthesis of Haitian folkloric dance and modern technique.
Landmarks Dance Night brings music to move by from diverse cultures to the Hatch Shell. Love, magicians, and ghosts haunt the flamenco ballet, El amor brujo, inspired by tales of the Romani people. The rhythms of Haiti and Vodou culture, and the drumming of the West African diaspora inspire Bostonians of disparate backgrounds to dance, from amateurs to established professionals.
Rain Date: Thursday, August 22, 2019. If it rains on August 22 as well, the concert will be held at an indoor venue to be announced.
FRIDAY, AUGUST 23 AT 6:15PM
Free, family-friendly, outdoor
Boston-based, Jean Appolon Expressions (JAE) celebrates and advances Haitian folkloric dance by building a contemporary cultural community that produces professional performances, educational opportunities, and dance training for people of all ages, abilities, and backgrounds.
JAE will be performing an excerpt of Vwayaj (The Travel), its latest portrayal of the immigrant experience. After years of political tremor, Appolon has woven his personal story together with those of other immigrants into this evening-length production. Dancers will tell these stories through bold Haitian contemporary dance set to evocative music composed by Haitian electronic music artist Val Jeanty. At the heart of Vwayaj is an inquiry into some of the most basic questions of the human experience: Where is home? What do we sacrifice when we leave home? What are we seeking on the other side? How do we create support within community? | [

I found these very cool birch plant pots on my last trip to IKEA and thought they'd be the perfect planters for my patio table. The wood is really awesome, but since my patio table is white, I wanted to accent with some color. I've seen a lot of people used acrylics to paint, but since I'm horrible with an artist's paintbrush, I stuck with spray paint.
WHAT YOU NEED
--wood or metal planters
--spray paint (I used Rustoleum in GLOSS Berry Pink)
WHAT YOU DO
1. Using painter's tape, mark off the planter with a geometric design.
2. Spray paint all sides of the planter, covering sides not being painted to prevent overspray.
3. Remove tape immediately for cleaner lines. DONE.
If you prefer a more subtle shot of color, you could simply paint the rim of the planter a bright shade to coordinate with your decor like in this picture.

Nuclear physics is the field of physics that studies the building blocks and interactions of the inner part of the atom, i.e. the nucleus. Early nuclear physics experiments include the study of natural radioactivity, at the end of 19th century, and the demonstration of the existence of the nucleus by the turn of the century. New elemental constituent was added in the following years with the discoveries of the proton and neutron, that also gave access to the estimation of nucleus binding energy. In ’30 some theoretical works proposed the existence of the strong nuclear force, an attractive force holding together the nucleons and acting by means of virtual particles called mesons, and of the weak nuclear forces, responsible for some nuclear decay; this forces are two of the four fundamental interaction in nature. Many different models were developed to explain the behaviour of the nucleons inside the nuclei, as a collective ensemble or as individual entities, and to justify the different properties of nuclei, such as mass, excitation energies, natural or induced decay modes. Nuclear models, fundamental interactions and nucleons properties were studied by looking at the different products coming out by induced nuclear reactions, in which nuclei and particles collides at every higher energy; particles accelerators became thus fundamental facilities for this research field, together with apparatus able to detect the reaction products.
Nowadays different interconnected research lines constitute the core of nuclear physics; properties of single nucleons and other strong interacting particles, equation of state of nuclear and hadronic matter and its behaviour under extreme conditions of pressure and temperature, liquid-gas and Quark Gluon Plasma (QGP) phase transitions, different reaction mechanisms, production of very exotic nuclei, study of nuclear structure, nuclear reactions of astrophysical interest are some examples of subjects studied from experimental and theoretical point of view.
At the same time nuclear physics strictly interacts with other research domains, as particle physics, the branch of physics that evolved of nuclear physics and studies the elementary constituents of matter and the interactions between them, astrophysics and astroparticle physics.
A direct application of nuclear physics can be found in nuclear energy, coming from fission or fusion, but the research field is also the basis for a far wider range of applications, including in the medical sector (e.g. nuclear medicine, magnetic resonance imaging, hadronic cancer treatment), in materials engineering (e.g. ion implantation, ion beam analysis) and in cultural heritage (e.g. nuclear method dating). Moreover, thanks to the continuous effort of improving the instruments used for the theoretical and experimental research, nuclear physics strongly contributes to the development of various other fields as high technology (e.g. cryogenic and high vacuum techniques), electronics, networking and computer science (e.g. the WEB and the GRID computing).
Nuclear physics is since always one of the main research area of the Department of Physics. In 1955 the “Centro Siciliano per la Fisica Nucleare e la Struttura delle Materia" (CSFNSM) bought with the University of Catania a 2 MeV Van de Graaf Accelerator that started the activity of experimental research in the Catania site. About 20 years later the Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare (INFN), the organization leading nuclear physics research in Italy since 1950 and already present with a Division inside the Department of Physics, decided to found in Catania one of its national laboratory, the Laboratorio Nazionale del Sud (LNS), devoted to the study of nuclear physics by means of two particles accelerators.
Today peoples of Department of Physics, in collaboration with the INFN, lead research in both theoretical and experimental nuclear physics in the Catania site as well as in many laboratories and research centres spread all over the Europe and the rest of the World, giving always a fundamental contributions in their research lines.

Hillsborough schools superintendent to step down next year
In a letter to school board members, Jeff Eakins said his last day would be June 30, 2020. Eakins said the decision was made so he could spend more time with his family.
Four years ago, the district faced one of its worst financial crises in history with 17 schools rated 'F' and declining graduation rates, Eakins explained. Now, four years later, he says the district's financial picture is much stronger, and there are fewer 'F'-rated schools along with a greatly-improved graduation rate. | [

Assignment word count: 1026/3000
If you at all relate to the above, welcome to my world.
I would consider myself a true master of very few things in life, but I could teach a comprehensive course on how to procrastinate.
I could write a great thesis on it, if I wasn’t too busy procrastinating.
Even in writing this post I am procrastinating from about 10 other things that I should be doing.
And maybe thats the problem. I think of myself as a ‘productive’ procrastinator. This means I procrastinate by doing things that are less urgent than the assignment I should be writing. The issue here is that it makes me feel like I am still technically doing something, and hence takes away some of the guilt and panic I feel about the 3000 word research proposal that I should have finished by now.
But the problem with being busy, and being a so-called productive procrastinator, is that there is never any shortage of things to do to procrastinate from the thing which has the most imminent deadline.
I have been asked many times how do I do everything I need to do, and still function as a coherent human being. And there is no easy answer, plus sometimes I don’t sleep, as evidenced by me currently writing this at 2am.
But there are some things I have picked up that help alleviate procrastination. These might seem obvious to some people who actually have their lives together* but it took me a while to learn.
*by this I mean people who do their laundry BEFORE they run out of clothes.
1. Try to love what you do.
This is easier said than done for some people. But this is the single biggest thing that has changed the way I work. If I actually give a shit about what I am working on, the chances of me actually finishing a task are much higher.
This applies across the board, and there are ways to change your work into something you care at least a little bit about. Wherever possible, pick an assignment topic you are actually interested in, as opposed to one you think will be easy.
If you are lucky enough to have a job you love, good for you (but also I sort of hate you). If not, try turning a retail or service job into something more interesting by making friends and finding the comedy in the mundane.
2. Try to plan ahead.
A calendar app on my phone has changed my life. Google Calendar is fine but I personally use the free app Sunrise because it lets you combine multiple calendars (including FB events) in one place. Set your reminders well and then you never have to remember a thing about your life ever again, because trying to remember things like meetings, birthdays and due dates is half the battle. Taking away that stress helps immensely.
3. Give yourself permission to have bad days.
Sometimes things just don’t go your way. Handing an assignment a day late or forgetting a deadline seems horrific at the time, but I can promise you will survive.
Theres nothing wrong with holding yourself to a high standard. But beating yourself up isn’t constructive.
Theres a fine line between acknowledging failure and clinging to it.

The overall objective of this project is to advance the development of technologies for detecting toxins that impact food safety and food defense and to determine their stability and bioavailability. Specifically, the project will focus on the following four objectives: Objective 1: Advance the development of structure- and activity-based detection methods for protein toxins. Subobjective 1A: Develop new antibodies (Abs) to botulinum neurotoxin (BoNT) serotype F, with serotypes C, D, and G as secondary priorities. Subobjective 1B: Determine the impact of different types of accessory proteins on the detection of BoNTs. Subobjective 1C: Develop activity-based detection methods for staphylococcal enterotoxin (SE) serotype E. Subobjective 1D: Develop monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) to Shiga toxin (Stx) subtypes and variants, including those from non-E. coli. Objective 2: Advance the development of detection methods for non-bacterial toxins. Subobjective 2A: Develop new detection methods for plant-derived protein toxins such as abrin. Subobjective 2B: Develop new detection methods for mushroom toxins such as amatoxins. Objective 3: Assess foodborne risks through examination of toxin stability and bioavailability in relation to intrinsic and extrinsic stresses. Subobjective 3A: Use activity-based assays to assess impact of food processing, matrices and accessory proteins on toxin activity. Subobjective 3B: Determine the factors that affect the bioavailability of toxins using rodent bioassay. Objective 4: Advance the development of instrumental, portable, and field-deployable testing methods. Subobjective 4A: Develop platforms such as optical array technologies to detect toxins. Subobjective 4B: Utilize instrumental methods to detect toxins based on mass spectra and/or other physicochemical characteristics.
Objective 1 has 2 general approaches: (1) Exploit ELISA and related technologies because of their versatility, robustness, and sensitivity. The mAbs developed for immunoassay will also be useful for sample preparation and for establishing design criteria for protective antibodies with clinical utility. (2) Develop activity assays for Stx2 variants and SEs. Activity assays will be especially useful to measure toxins in the presence of thermally inactivated and degraded proteins that are expected in processed food samples. Both approaches address practical analytical problems. The following hypotheses will be tested:(a) High affinity mAbs and recombinant Abs for BoNT serotypes and NAPs as analytical targets will provide useful reagents for ELISA and sensor methodology. (b) Neurotoxin-associated proteins (NAPs) influence the physicochemical properties of BoNT complexes, and their ease of detection in food matrices. These effects depend on the types of accessory proteins present. (c) A cell line can be engineered to provide a cell-based activity assay for SEE to measure active toxin in food matrices to replace bioassay and improve upon structure-based immunoassay. (d) New mAbs will be able to distinguish new subtypes of Stx1 or Stx2 produced by non-E. coli bacteria such as Enterobacter cloacae. Objective 2 will exploit immunoassays, especially ELISA and related technologies (as in Objective 1) and also develop and utilize activity assays. The mAbs developed for immunoassay will also have important utility for sample preparation. The following hypotheses will be tested: (a) High affinity variant-specific mAbs will provide useful reagents for ELISA and sensor methodology for detecting nonbacterial protein toxins like abrin. (b) High affinity toxin-specific and group-specific mAbs will provide useful reagents for ELISA and sensor methodology for mushroom toxins. Objective 3 will exploit activity assays and rodent bioassay to better define the vulnerabilities of our food supply and the analytical needs. The following hypotheses will be tested: (a) Food processing conditions, food matrices, and accessory proteins impact toxin activity. (b) The oral bioavailabilities of BoNT and abrin vary among subtypes of toxin and state of the toxin (pure, complexed, crude) and depend on the food matrix. Objective 4 will exploit instrumental and portable technologies for toxin detection. Some of these technologies will will utilize binding molecules and activity assays developed under Objectives 1 and 2. To advance the development of instrumental and field-deployable testing, the following hypotheses will be tested: (a) A robust cell-based activity assay for SEE in a food matrix can be developed using a small fluorescence-detecting charge-coupled device to read data. (b) Mass spectral data and other physicochemical properties are useful for detection of toxin proteins and peptides. Contingency plans are built into the Approach for each objective and sub-objective. For example, contingencies for Objective 1 include use of alternative immunogens, sample preparation strategies, and assay formats.
Under Objective 1A, following immunization and cell fusion experiments with recombinant derived peptide fragments of botulinum neurotoxin serotype F (BoNT/F), Researchers in Albany, California isolated nine monoclonal antibodies (mAb). The binding domain of each | [

The WFP has indicated that the prices of food and non-food items in Syria increased significantly in March as a result of Ukraine’s unfolding crisis and the conflict’s repercussions on global food and energy markets.
Pledges for the upcoming Brussels conference on the humanitarian crisis in Syria are expected to decrease in line with the downward trend of pledges since 2021 due to funding shortfalls, donor fatigue, and the potential impacts of the Russian-Ukrainian conflict.
By May, the UN's World Food Programme (WFP) will scale down a number of items in its monthly emergency food baskets to Northwest Syria, a move attributed to funding constraints and rising global food prices, which have surged as a result of the Ukrainian-Russian conflict and the protracted economic crisis in Syria.
A recent report published by a UN agency examines the economy-wide disruption and the limitations on humanitarian action caused by sanctions, as well as the impact this has had on the well-being and rights of children.
Amid an acute economic crisis, the prices of commodities – including cereals, key food items, oil products, and COVID-19-related items – have soared last year compared with 2020, according to the World Food Programme’s Market Price Watch Bulletin for Syria. Despite the fact that the government has increased public sector salaries, the purchasing power of Syrians is nonetheless unable to keep pace with the rising cost of living.
The U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control has expanded authorisations for nongovernmental organisations to engage in certain activities and transactions in Syria. | [

I have long been intrigued by the way we imagine ‘artificial general intelligence’ as some kind of inevitable future. One, perhaps, where humans – too – can be transferred into machines.
You’ll notice I used ‘general’ in that phrase. We throw plain ‘artificial intelligence’ (AI) around with reckless glee these days, meaning things like chatbots. But they’re one-trick ponies: a true artificial intelligence, allegedly, is capable of the same general abilities that we have.
The idea, of course, builds on the supposition that the brain and the computer work in much the same way – that ‘consciousness’ and ‘intelligence’ are products of circuit complexity and scale. This has been a central concept to the ‘model’ of mind for over a century. It began as a comparison with phone exchanges, and when computers came along the model was transferred to them. It’s since become axiomatic to assume that the brain works like a computer; or that computers, somehow, can be made in our own image. The ‘rogue AI’ trope in sci-fi is one example of how it’s enviegled its way into popular thinking.
There are many things wrong with that idea. Let’s start with the way AI research was pursued from the mid-1950s at the various Dartmouth Conferences and other get-togethers, culminating in Marvin Minsky establishing an AI lab at MIT in 1959. Back then the supposition was that it would take a grad student a few weeks over summer to show how it worked. Well, that didn’t happen.
The problem was twofold: a disastrous misconception about consciousness, and another disastrous notion of what constituted intelligence.
Let’s start with consciousness. We don’t know what generates it. There is some evidence of conscious awareness being an emergent property – a second-order product of the mind and body together. This, among other things, creates the illusion of ‘spirit’, independent of any physical housing. That isn’t so: consciousness relies absolutely on physicality to exist. But the relationship between ‘consciousness’ and how it’s generated is more complex than switch-flipping (which is how computers work). The body is also turning out to be a complete biochemical system. You know the adage about ‘gut feeling’? Well, turns out the gut has a huge biochemical influence on our sense of presence and much else.
The other issue is what constitutes ‘intelligence’. The usual western view is anthropocentric – a continuum of general ability from a dim awareness among worms, running on an ascending scale to humans (naturally) at the top. This too is turning out to be untrue: the way we think is particular to our biology, just as the way elephants think is particular to theirs. What’s more, the size of the brain was meant to be an arbiter of smartness – hence the supposition that ‘cavemen’ were ‘stupid’. And hence the surprise when it turned out that tiny-brained crows can solve logic puzzles. So can parrots – evidenced by the way New Zealand kea regularly wreak havoc with tourist property left in cars. And yet the term ‘bird brain’ is a perjorative. Really?
Could it be that birds just think differently?
The concept of ranked ‘single-factor’ intelligence was given cultural power by the ‘IQ’ test – a pernicious form of psychometrics, cooked up by ‘psychologists’ such as Alfred Binet (1857-1911) and since used largely (as far as I can tell) as another way of bashing people into pre-defined boxes. If you couldn’t answer the culturally-framed questions set by the ‘psychologist’, you were stupid. Or dyslexic, because IQ tests didn’t take cognitive differences into account either.
The conceit that these limitations have been overcome in ‘modern’ tests doesn’t reduce the false-premise on which ‘IQ’ rests in the first place. Intelligence is a multi-factor phenomenon. It cannot be reduced to a number, particularly one predicated on western conceits. Intelligence is mediated by many factors, including cognition. Are dyslexics stupid? Of course not.
Machines can do particular things far better than humans can. I have a computer that can recall data perfectly and churn it back, including the data required for it to operate. Does this make a computer ‘more intelligent’ than a human?
When that’s mixed with the fact that machines are artefacts – not biological – it becomes clear that (a) we don’t know how consciousness is generated; other than (b) it’s a product of whatever is physically producing it, but not in the direct sense of circuit-switching; (c) because our consciousness is biochemically based, that ‘emergent’ side is likely to be | [

GAYS, lesbians and transsexuals have been named as a new equity sub-group that universities must track for their progress in enrolment and retention.
The federal Education Department has asked universities to report back on improvements in rates of under-representation, even though there is no data to suggest this group participates in higher education at lower rates than the rest of the community.
"In fact, general surveys of gays and lesbians show high levels of educational attainment," said Andrew Norton, higher education director with think tank The Grattan Institute.
The document also asks universities to report on their work with people from non-English speaking backgrounds, although recent research has confirmed that this group, on average, has higher levels of participation and success than Australian-born students.
While universities are striving to meet the government-set equity target of 20 per cent of disadvantaged people holding a degree by 2020, the inclusion of these new equity indicators has raised eyebrows.
"Lots of universities have programs to improve inclusiveness, but sexuality is not an under-representation issue, its a social justice issue," said the Queensland University of Technology's equity director, Mary Kelly.
Ms Kelly said universities did not collect data on sexual orientation -- and would probably create a public outrage if they tried to. The only required areas were indigenous background, country of birth and disability. She said she thought the move was probably a result of ill-informed goodwill on the part of a federal bureaucrat rather than government direction.
The manager of student access and equity at Deakin University in Victoria, Jennifer Oriel, described using sexual orientation as an indicator of equity as "a nonsense". "My opinion is that disadvantage has to be produced by poor educational participation or outcomes," she said. "We need to keep in mind that higher education equity is about improving the outcomes from structurally disadvantaged backgrounds."
Included in the document, under the sub-heading "Gender", are women in engineering and computing and men in education and nursing.
Ms Kelly said while women in non-traditional areas was a hot topic, the debate on men in certain disciplines had been "won and lost" some time ago. "Men are not going into nursing and teaching because they are in other professions and the trades and they don't want to go into underpaid jobs." | [

Dogs Chewing Paws and Nails? Before you can stop your dog from chewing on their paws and nails, you need to be able to figure out why they’re doing it in the first place. Are they cleaning their paws? Are they experiencing some pain or discomfort? Are they feeling anxious and trying to cope with it? While there are plenty of reasons dogs might chew on their paws and nails, there are some key factors that will allow you to figure out which one applies to your pet’s behavior. Here’s what you need to know about the most common causes and how to stop your dog from chewing their paws and nails.
5 Reasons Your Dog Licks Their Paws
Dogs groom themselves by licking their fur, but sometimes they go a step further and lick their paws. Here are five reasons your dog might be licking their paws.
- Their paw pads are itchy. Just like you, dogs can get itch relief by scratching an itch. But since they can’t reach all parts of their body, they often lick instead.
- Their nails are too long. If your dog’s nails are getting too long, they may start to curl under and irritate the skin on the top of the paw. This can cause your dog to lick or chew at the paw in an attempt to relieve the discomfort.
- They’re bored or anxious. Dogs typically lick their paws when they’re feeling anxious or stressed.
- Your dog is infested with fleas or ticks. Certain pests, like fleas and ticks, can be carriers of deadly diseases like bubonic plague and Lyme disease. The last thing you want is your dog eating these pests off their fur and licking their paws in an attempt to relieve itchiness. If you find any trace of fleas or ticks on your dog’s body, have a vet take care of it immediately!
- Your dog has a medical issue. If you notice your dog licking their paws more than usual, it’s possible they might have an underlying medical issue, such as arthritis or something more serious. Consult your vet if you think your dog is developing an excessive licking habit that lasts longer than a week or two.
4 Common Reasons Dogs Chew Their Toes
Dogs lick and chew on a lot of things, including themselves. This behavior is natural and something every dog owner and lover recognizes. There are plenty of reasons dogs might chew on their paws and nails, from healthy grooming to coping with pain, inflammation, boredom, or stress. Let’s take a look at four common reasons dogs chew their toes.
- Habit – when you stop your pup from chewing their nails, they will do it more often for a while before finally getting the message.
- Joint Pain – this is actually an issue that plagues both people and pets alike. When the joint becomes inflamed or damaged, it can be hard for animals to get comfortable in any position besides standing up straight. Dogs can’t go out in public if they’re limping around because people will think they’re injured and call animal control! Instead of walking on three legs for long periods of time, many dogs will relieve some of the discomfort by licking the affected area which includes their feet as well as other joints like hips and elbows.
- Inflammation – similar to joint pain, inflammation can cause discomfort for dogs who will lick their toes or paws in an attempt to relieve some of that pain. This is especially common for older pets as well as those who have special dietary needs, like being fed a prescription diet without enough nutritional value. If your pet is chewing on their nails because they’re trying to relieve some of that joint pain, anti-inflammatory medications may be able to provide some relief instead of cutting off the dog’s access entirely.
- Diet – many pet owners are turning towards more holistic treatments for their animals including alternative diets designed around a mix of different proteins with fewer fillers and carbohydrates than traditional options.
5 Ways to Know If your Dog Is In Pain
- Your dog is whimpering or crying more than usual.
- Your dog is licking or chewing on themselves more than normal.
- Your dog is having trouble moving around or is walking differently than usual.
- Your dog is showing a change in behavior, such as being more aggressive or withdrawn.
- Your dog’s appetite has changed or they’re eating less than normal.
6 Tips for Reducing Paw Licking and Grooming
- Dogs might lick and chew on their paws due to allergies, boredom, anxiety, or other underlying health issues. If your dog is paw licking excessively, make an appointment with your veterinarian to rule out any medical problems.
- Allergies are a common reason for paw licking and chewing. | [

Purdue University has often had an adequate football program, muddled in the middle of an improving Big 10 conference and losing recruits to improving programs. While rivals Indiana University is grooming itself to possibly begin playing in bowls, it appears Purdue has regressed once again, as all the reasons for optimism were swiftly crushed by Cincinnati today, the final score being 42-7.
For Purdue, new coach Darrell Hazell was looking to groom a new offense around fifth-year senior Rob Henry. Although Cincinnati is a good team with plenty of potential, Purdue and Rob Henry especially, were embarrassed.
13 starters returned from last year, but it looked like a completely lost and distressed version of last year’s mediocre program, a damning sign for fans of the program.
Many fans of Purdue will remember Rob Henry from 2010, the last time he saw starting action. This iteration of Henry looked absolutely lost and even worse, incompetent. Backpedaling when pressured was a common theme as any additional pressure Cincy brought reached Henry with ease.
Henry’s decision making was also abysmal as he often found himself telegraphing throws and overthrowing Purdue’s receivers. Despite dropping back 35 times, Henry’s completion percentage was barely above 50%.
When they did actually have the ball, Purdue was seemingly adamant to give it right back. Four turnovers plagued Purdue, and made this a complete rout.
Going forward, the baptism by fire as it has been called for Purdue’s new coach will continue. Next week Purdue will host lowly Indiana State and likely gain its first victory of the year. From there, the Big Ten’s relentless schedule will have its way with Purdue, unless things change.

My wife went to an Open Day last year and spoke to me about the charity. I offered to help with the gardening, but once I said that I had helped at the Maidstone Churches Winter Shelter and had certificates for food safety, I was asked to help as a chef! I have always enjoyed cooking but have no formal training. I started volunteering at Dandelion Time in the autumn of 2022.
I work on Tuesdays from 9.00 to 1.30 in the kitchen. I prepare healthy food for the families and workers and serve it at 12.00. There are usually 3 or 4 families present at each session. It is nice when the families help with the food preparation and get involved in discussions about what they’d like to eat the following week. After we have decided what we plan to cook the next week, I check the store cupboard and put any shopping requirements onto the group What’s App for one of the staff to order in.
There is a very positive happy atmosphere at Dandelion Time and it is nice to be part of the team working with families. It is always nice to see the families learning how to make dishes such as pizzas, pasta and biscuits.
It was great to cook on the campfire one week and get the chance to enjoy the wonderful grounds and see the animals.
Being asked on the day to prepare nachos in the style of a Tik Tok video that one of the children had found was a challenge for all of us, but we managed it!
After working for only two weeks, I was asked to come in for an additional session and cook for the trustees who were meeting. This was a little daunting to envisage preparing a meal for 25 important people!
I enjoy working in the friendly and supportive environment at Dandelion Time and like to help the families who attend. I am looking forward to being able to use the space outdoors in the Spring. | [

Mobile Phone Signal Barriers
You will find the same thing being said at every office, “I can’t get a signal.” This is a common phrase uttered at seemingly every office regardless of how modern the technology is. It’s not unexpected. After all, we rely on devices and are connected more than ever before. Unfortunately, we still cannot get a signal in some of the most important places.
There are plenty of reasons for this. Perhaps one of the main reasons is our reliance on using building materials with superior strength and insulation. A lot of the building’s materials are chosen for these things and not for better signal. The signal isn’t a priority to architects and the overall construction.
All of the mobile phone networks use radio waves to communicate with one another. The difference between mobile and TV or Radio waves is the reliance on two-way communication. With mobile phones, the waves need to reach both the recipient and the device. The same isn’t true with radio and TV waves. Both signals don’t need to be strong enough, only the receiving signal.
There is a solution…
Mobile phone signals operate in different frequencies. These frequencies are known as mobile bands and they are maintained by cell phone carriers. The carriers divide all of the mobile bands up and use them for their customers. There are typically a few major carriers who also sublease to Mobile Virtual Network Operators known as MVNOs. The major carriers in the UK are O2, Vodafone, Three, and EE. The MVNOs are Giff Gaff, Tesco Mobile, Virgin Mobile, and others.
The higher the frequency, the more susceptible it is to obstruction. You can tend to see this very visibly with WiFi signals. That’s why you want to use 3.4Ghz bands when you are looking for the signal to reach longer distances and through non-porous materials. Whereas, if you have a shorter distance and you don’t have much obstructing the signal, 5Ghz would be both faster and preferred. Here are a few of the construction materials that can easily block signals from getting relayed.
1. Coated Glass
This is one of the things you want to look out for that may not seem to be the case. While plain glass won’t be a problem, the coated glass will. A lot of the modern designs for class have this coating on them for improved thermals and energy efficiency. The issue is, that it’s not only good at reflecting heat, but also at reflecting mobile signals. This can result in the building being a dead spot for mobile signals. While this glass looks great and premium, it can be a hindrance to a good signal.
2. Foil-Backed Insulation
The Kingspan style of foam is placed in between two different layers of foil. This can be a good option when it comes to improved insulation, but it’s not good for getting a good signal. The foam can be extremely absorbent which can block the mobile signal from reaching.
Some Of The Solutions…
1. Change Your Position
One of the oldest solutions in the book is by altering where you are standing. If you aren’t getting a good signal in a building, you would try to stand by a window. This can be a good way to limit the barriers to your signal reaching out. While effective, it’s not practical. This can be a very impractical solution especially if it results in you standing right near someone else’s desk. You also don’t want to have to rely on running over to a window whenever you need to answer your phone. As a side point, you may want to learn about mobile phones signal boosters. This is made up of three main elements – exterior antenna, amplifier, and interior antenna. They form a wireless system to boost cellular reception.
This is another more practical solution. It’s known as “Sure Signal.” Typically, you can get these directly from your mobile network provider. With a Femtocell, you can get a better signal. It works by creating a link to the carrier using the Internet and then broadcasting it. In most instances, you will need to register it to specific mobile devices that are to be used. This can be a very effective product, but you will need the Internet for it to work. Likewise, you can’t swap them out between carriers if you switch. Therefore, if you purchase one from Vodaphone, you would be stuck using that carrier unless you want to buy another when you switch. | [

Plant Care Tips
As with other perennials, care of coneflowers is easy. Making sure that they have the right conditions--plenty of air circulation, bright exposure and well-drained soil will give you best results. Echinacea are usually quite tall and would benefit from staking so that you can enjoy the spectacular blooms. Deadhead the plants regularly once blooming starts and you'll extend the bloom season considerably. While you can cut them back after they have finished blooming, remember that the lovely bronzy cones develop into seedheads which attract birds in the winter; you may want to wait until early spring before removing the dead foliage and flowers. Dividing the plants every 2 or 3 years keeps them vigorous and strong. | [

Victory of the bears – As the price of bitcoin (BTC) opened the day above $ 42,000, it lost $ 40,000 and fell to around $ 39,550 on Bitfinex today, April 11, 2022. It is trading at $ 39,950 in the time to write this writing and currently has a significant daily loss. of 7.37%.
The Daily Bitcoin (BTC) course is offered in collaboration with the Traing du Coin and its algorithmic trading solution finally accessible to people.
Bitcoin under $ 40,000 – the next $ 30,000 stop?
Analysts believe bitcoin is being tested reduction of the balance sheet of the US Federal Reserve. This move by the Fed to try to control inflation could reduce the attractiveness of bitcoin and other risky assets. Decentrader co-founder filbfilb believes that this Fed action could even weigh the price of bitcoin “for the coming months”.
Bitcoin also falls below $ 40,000 when the U.S. dollar (DXY) crosses the 100 mark for the first time since May 2022. Is this appreciation of the dollar permanent or temporary? The rise of the DXY seems, in any case, to have a clearly visible negative impact on the price of bitcoin.
What are the next minimum prices for bitcoin? Merchant Michaël van de Poppe defines $ 38,000 as a key levelafter this support break around $ 40,000.
Meanwhile, cryptocurrency trader Ed shares a scenario with the price of bitcoin the roller coaster in the coming days. Expect a first bitcoin bounce to $ 41,000, which would then be followed by a drop to $ 39,850. The next bounce would result in aa recovering $ 44,200 and morefollowed by a drop to $ 39,000.
Can Bitcoin Really Return Above $ 44,000 in the Very Short Term? Trader Rekt Capital shared a daily chart of the price of bitcoin, to show that the cryptocurrency is trading below the Pi cycle indicator. The latter now acts as a new resistanceas in December 2021 ”.
The Pi Cycle Top indicator, which uses the 111-day moving average, has been used to determine when the price of bitcoin hits market cycle peaks in three days. Then we should deduce that bitcoin came in a downward trend?
Some forecasts are, in any case, really pessimistic. BitMEX CEO Arthur Hayes stated in his April 10, 2022 post that Bitcoin should try the $ 30,000 “at the end of the second quarter of June this year.”
Therefore, the Fed will not only be able to break the significant support of $ 46,000 for bitcoin. It also broke $ 40,000 and therefore could have started the $ 30,000 bearish move.

Ultimate Sediment Concentrationby V.. Miguel Ponce, San Diego State Univ, United States,
Document Type: Proceeding Paper
Part of: Hydraulic Engineering
The sediment rating curve is used to relate sediment discharge to water discharge, under steady equilibrium flow conditions. The slope of the sediment rating curve is a measure of the suspended bed material sediment concentration. In this paper, the suspended bed material sediment concentration is referred to as sediment concentration, and it specifically excludes wash load. Typical sediment rating curves show a trend toward a constant (suspended bed material) sediment concentration at sufficiently high discharges. This maximum value of sediment concentration can properly be referred to as the ultimate sediment concentration. The ultimate sediment concentration is shown to be a function of a dimensionless (bed material) sediment transport parameter and a dimensionless flow parameter (the square of the Froude number). Alternatively, the Froude number squared can be expressed as the ratio of bottom slope and dimensionless Chezy friction factor.

ENCO debuts ‘studio in a cloud’ strategy at 2019 NAB Show
Subscribe to NewscastStudio's newsletter for the latest in broadcast design, technology and engineering delivered to your inbox.
Following the European debut of ENCO’s second-generation WebDAD platform at IBC in September, ENCO will showcase it as a key component of the company’s “studio in a cloud” strategy at the 2019 NAB Show.
Part of ENCO’s enCloud family of solutions, the enhanced WebDAD will be positioned as its central radio demonstration at the show, highlighting how broadcasters can now take direct control of studio operations from any remote location with a web connection.
WebDAD empowers cloud-based operation through an updated, HTML5-enabled user interface.
Users have the freedom of a fully-virtualized platform to remotely access and control their studio-based ENCO DAD radio automation systems — a benefit made all the more powerful with the addition of ENCO’s Presenter On-Air interface.
This interface further optimizes ENCO’s modular, touchscreen design for customizing production workflows and providing instant access to media libraries, playlists and more.
“WebDAD has evolved to support a true ‘Studio in the Cloud’ operation that removes the limitation of maintaining an on-premises physical workstation,” said Ken Frommert, president, ENCO, in a statement. “In addition to reducing operational costs at the station, WebDAD customers have broad control and playout capabilities across on-air presentation, playlist manipulation, voice tracking and other workflow tasks. With the powerful ENCO Presenter On-Air interface, WebDAD is the most powerful and comprehensive browser-based interface on the market.”
Frommert adds that WebDAD also helps stations work more freely with on-air and production talent around the world by making it easy to bring in part-time, contract, and remote staff to access the playout system from anywhere there is an internet connection.
ENCO will demonstrate the entire studio in a cloud workflow, including other radio solutions, at the 2019 NAB Show from April 8-11 in the Las Vegas Convention Center. ENCO exhibits at Booth N2524.

Often when I’m being interviewed about my career and music, I’m asked whether I am a feminist. What the interviewer means depends on who’s doing the asking and what their take on the feminist movement is. Sometimes it’s rhetorical. Other times, a thinly veiled indictment. My answer is always yes. I have never been apologetic about this, but rather deeply passionate. It is an honor to be considered a feminist.
The concept of feminism to me is a mandatory link in a chain toward wholeness, cohesion, maturation and functionality—certainly the feminist movement is one of the most powerful means to this greater end. I do believe, however, that the definition of feminism needs some refocusing, redefining and updating for this modern time, and for this new generation, and that the movement deserves a reorienting, intentionality and re-envisioning for what is possible and how to get there. We need a revolution to the feminist revolution. And it needs to be brought to the fore of our awareness in order to heal what ails our times on this planet.
Here’s why: So much of the movement has been about (often willfully, and for good reason) forcing justice upon a patriarchal system that too often reduces the feminine to maintain the reign of the disempowered masculine. The patriarchy has always seemed an ignorant and emotionally immature purgatory at best, and, at worst, a liminal despair-filled holding pattern carefully held together by resistance, hate, hostility and separatism—the cost of which is felt across every area of life, in women and men alike. | [

Dancers suspend from the arches of the Green Street Bridge over the Ipswich River as part of the weekend-long Ipswich Illumination Celebration. We’ve added a surprising NEW element to this year’s installation. Held in canvas slings and tied climbing rope, four dancers hover over the surface of the water framed in the arches of the stone bridge. The dance is daring and spectacularly beautiful.
Located at the Green Street Bridge on the corner of Green Street and Water Street.

Invisibility on crucible thanks to network issues.
I was playing crucible when all of a sudden I started to get network issues from destiny2. The game automatically reconnected me, however, when I started shotting I realized that I didn't deal with any damage neither that they could see me. I started recording and testing and it seems that environmental damage such as witherhoard effect and titan supers dealt damage and even gave progress to my bounties. It also seems that I can receive damage in this weird state. Lastly, it seems that my death in this mode makes me normal again. | [

A Guide to Sanitation Safety Planning in the Philippines: Step-by-step Risk Management for Safe Reuse and Disposal of Wastewater, Greywater, and Excreta
Asian Development Bank | December 2016
Sanitation safety planning is a preventive risk management approach that identifies potential risks that may arise during the operation of a sanitation system, including waste collection, transportation and conveyance, treatment, disposal, and reuse. After the highest priority risks have been identified, an incremental improvement plan establishes control measures to ensure that no one in the sanitation chain is exposed to the hazards related to wastewater, greywater, and excreta. This guide describes a six-step process for sanitation safety planning in the Philippines, based on the experiences of pilot projects by two water service providers, Baliwag Water District and Maynilad Water Services, Inc.

The local extension center
sponsors a few demonstration gardens
throughout our county.
These gardens feature native or Florida-friendly plants
and exhibit ways to enhance public places
using drought-tolerant and low maintenance plant materials.
This garden is directly outside of the extension office
in Bartow, the county seat.
This beautyberry is loaded
and surely must be a favorite of the birds.
The leaves on this amazing specimen
were as big as my hand!
They prefer swampy conditions.
This beach sunflower is not only drought resistant,
but is salt tolerant as well,
for those who live near the coastline.
This mimosa was simply amazing.
Its blooms remind me of "Horton Hears a Who".
So many textures, colors, varieties.
Garden tips are sprinkled throughout the area.
It helps that plants are identified.
It's no wonder the bees feel very welcome here.
I'm not big on roses,
but these were really sensational.
These gallardia look so vintage.
With such a variety of plants,
all kinds of visitors can find what they're looking for.
This perennial peanut is a wonderful ground cover
that can tolerate dry spells and heat.
It is affected by freezes, but it bounces back.
Would I love to replace our St. Augustine sod with this!
Read about the 9 principles here.
These homemade planters were a clever idea
for growing herbs or strawberries.
What a great use of recycled materials!
A large composting demonstration area
shows how to use common items to complete your project.
Whenever I visit these gardens,
there is always something new to see.
What a gift to the community and
to gardeners who crave to learn more! | [

|Title: ||Male reproductive health and environmental xenoestrogens|
|Authors: ||Toppari, J|
|Keywords: ||Male reproduction|
|Publication Date: ||1996|
|Publisher: ||National Institute of Environmental Health Science|
|Citation: ||Environmental Health Perspectives Supplements 104(S4): 741–803, Aug 1996|
|Abstract: ||Male reproductive health has deteriorated in many countries during the last few decades. In the 1990s, declining semen quality has been reported from Belgium, Denmark, France, and Great Britain. The incidence of testicular cancer has increased during the same time incidences of hypospadias and cryptorchidism also appear to be increasing. Similar reproductive problems occur in many wildlife species. There are marked geographic differences in the prevalence of male reproductive disorders. While the reasons for these differences are currently unknown, both clinical and laboratory research suggest that the adverse changes may be inter-related and have a common origin in fetal life or childhood. Exposure of the male fetus to supranormal levels of estrogens, such as diethlylstilbestrol, can result in the above-mentioned reproductive defects. The growing number of reports demonstrating that common environmental contaminants and natural factors possess estrogenic activity presents the working hypothesis that the adverse trends in male reproductive health may be, at least in part, associated with exposure to estrogenic or other hormonally active (e.g., antiandrogenic) environmental chemicals during fetal and childhood development. An extensive research program is needed to understand the extent of the problem, its underlying etiology, and the development of a strategy for prevention and intervention.|

Sex Diaries is a fortnightly series on HuffPost UK that asks readers to share their sex lives: to talk about the sex they’re having (or not). Interested in anonymously sharing your story? Email firstname.lastname@example.org
My birthday is 7 July. This year I’ll be turning 26 but I still haven’t had sex – in fact, I haven’t even kissed someone. I am a virgin but I absolutely despise the word; there’s so much stigma attached to it, but it’s honestly all bollocks. Why does society care so much? How do we even define sex? There are so many different ways people connect – is it really as simple as a penis in a vagina?
Sex just never happened for me, the opportunity never came up. I started having serious mental health problems when I was 10; one year I was even taken out of class and homeschooled. I missed out on the education, but it also meant I wasn’t socialising for a while. Then I was diagnosed as being on the autistic spectrum, and when I was put back into school I wasn’t participating – it was more just getting through those years. I was bullied too.
I went on to university, where I studied computing. It was very male dominated so I wasn’t meeting women then, and I suffered with social anxiety which meant I eventually dropped out. Between the ages of 20 and 23, I became housebound and was living with my parents, which I still do. There was just a prolonged lack of interaction with people. I meet people on social media and stuff but it’s not the same.
“I have phobias of things connected to my penis size and ability to ejaculate."”
Not only have I struggled meeting people but there were other reasons why sex hasn’t never happened: I have anxiety, problems with my body image and low self-esteem, as well as phobias of things connected to sex like my penis size and ability to ejaculate. My anti-depressants can have side effects – they’ve made me paranoid about my ability to perform.
At school, I also missed sex education lessons, which happened in the years I was taken out. I know most people’s experiences of sex ed aren’t great but I had none. I’ve learned everything I know from watching pornography so that has probably warped my view of what is normal in the bedroom as well, and masturbation now plays a large role in my sex life.
There have been a couple of times when perhaps something could have happened: people talk about going to parties and just getting drunk and going off with someone. But that situation doesn’t come up, because I don’t drink. Maybe I could have initiated things more but it’s hard when you’ve been knocked back and rejected; I’m on dating apps, but so far I’ve only managed to get one date.
I’m getting out of the house more and go to lots of workshops on sex positivity and sexual health – I have lost count of how many I’ve attended. It gives me an insight into that part of my life I haven’t had. I also know that having sex doesn’t necessarily make you experienced at sex so I’m trying to get experienced too. I’ve also had intensive therapy and my therapist helped me deal with some of my phobias. We did an anonymous Google survey where I asked if people would care about being with an older virgin: 95% said it wasn’t an issue so that was reassuring. But as I’m getting older the fear is still there.
“I ask myself – if someone walked in and said ‘I want to have sex with you’, would I do it?"”
At the moment, I have a few friends who are single and not having regular sex so I’m talking to them about that feeling. Of course it’s not quite the same but I can get their perspective on it. Lots of them are women and I think they’re more understanding than men. But I don’t talk to my family or parents about it – I think they definitely know I’m a virgin but we don’t talk about it.
I often ask myself – if someone walked in and said ‘I want to have sex with you,’ would I do it? Because I’m not looking for a one night stand, I am too insecure for that. I want a connection and a relationship, someone who understands how difficult things have been for me and what I’ve come through. I’d probably go for the one night stand and then massively regret it afterwards. It would open up a whole can of worms for me.
I want to meet someone who would like to build up to the sex part rather than go straight in. I guess that could happen tomorrow, or it could happen never | [

The Andhra Pradesh high court on Thursday reserved the judgment on the bail petition in the skill development case. The advocates from both sides placed their arguments before the court on the day.
The arguments continued for more than five hours. Additional advocate general Ponnavolu Sudhkar Reddy argued for the CID, while supreme court senior advocate Siddhartha Luthra argued for Chandrababu Naidu.
Siddhartha Luthra argued that the police had arrested Chandrababu Naidu just before the elections. The arrest was the political decision of the state government, he alleged. He also told the court that the ruling party was trying to keep Chandrababu Naidu in jail ahead of the 2024 general elections.
Sudhakar Reddy argued that the case is there since 2018. The money was transferred to fake accounts under the directions of Chandrababu Naidu. He further told the court that Naidu violated the bail conditions and took out a rally from Rajamahendravam central jail. He took out a rally in Hyderabad too, he told the court and added that the Telangana police have registered a case against Naidu.
He further said that the investigation is in the final state and Naidu has to be in jail. He asked the court not to consider the bail petition.
Siddhartha Luthra told the court that there was no need to take up investigation at this point of time. He also told the court that the CID’s forensic report was made only to fix Chandrababu Naidu in the case. He also told the court that the field verification was not done in this case, and it was mentioned by those who did the forensic audit.
He asked the high court to consider the bail petition and grant bail as investigation continues. He also told the court to take the health condition of Chandrababu Naidu into consideration and grant the bail. | [

First-Timers Find NEA Meeting Daunting
For many first-time delegates, the National Education Association’s annual convention can be overwhelming with its milling crowds, enormous Representative Assembly hall, and fast-paced debates.
“It’s quite intimidating,” said Ashley Bettas, a first-timer from Tacoma, Wash. Ms. Bettas said the sheer size of the gathering, which is populated by nearly 9,000 delegates alone, can be disconcerting. Still, she expressed excitement at being here in the nation’s capital in a room where so many people are working together to make decisions that they hope will benefit students nationwide.
from the NEA’s annual meeting:
NEA President Reg Weaver‘s introduction of Sen. Clinton. (0:35; MP3 format)
Excerpts from Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton‘s address at the NEA’s annual meeting. (4:26; MP3 format)
Gloria Buck, 30-year special education teacher, Lapeer Community Schools, Michigan. (1:23; MP3 format)
Coy D. Marquardt, 7th-grade teacher, Iowa City, Iowa, a first-time delegate. (1:15; MP3 format)
Nancy Ruth White, Redlands, Calif., retired 35-year educator and veteran delegate. (1:55; MP3 format)
Barbara Wilson, school librarian, Mineral, Virginia, 21-year NEA member. (1:40; MP3 format)
But other first-timers said that while the July 4-7 meeting was exciting, the novelty could be challenging, particularly if they had not received any kind of orientation to help them navigate the conference. Of the delegates interviewed by Education Week, most attended orientations in their states or at the beginning of the conference, but a few arrived with only a basic outline of what to expect.
“You’re definitely in a hotbed of issues,” said John Gilbert, a first-time delegate from the Salem, Ore., area. He spoke out, despite his initial hesitations, on the main assembly floor during a debate on dues increases, which he was leaning against. “I was scared until I got mad, and then it was easy to get up and speak,” said Mr. Gilbert, who represents 180 custodial workers and felt that he needed to address the issue. “I know when I go back [to my membership], that I’ll have to explain why I made my vote the way I did.”
Overall, first-timers said the get-together was well-run and they were impressed by the democratic structure that provided individuals with the ability to voice crucial concerns. A few, however, noted that logistical and technological limitations made understanding what was happening difficult at times.
For example, some delegates said that ease or difficulty in following the proceedings could depend on where their state organization was positioned in the Washington Convention Center hall. Others said the use of televisions to display amendment changes made it confusing to follow in print. Mr. Gilbert found the Representative Assembly’s discussions and votes a “little too fast.”
All the delegates interviewed acknowledged that one of the most difficult aspects was just keeping up with the business at hand. The language of many bills and amendments placed before the assembly can be difficult to understand, they said, equating the review of amendment revisions to sitting and listening to a lawyer.
Mark Horton, a first-time delegate from Reno, Nev., said he found it easier to get his bearings at the Representative Assembly because he was attending with a mentor who had six years’ experience.
“It would be overwhelming to come here by myself,” he said. “There’s a lot of information coming at you.”
The delegates said they would advise newcomers to request local orientations before attending the national conference, to be prepared to ask questions at the conference itself, and to try to hook up with a mentor who could help filter the vast amount of information.

is there one to acomidate the a pillar speaker on a 2014 chevrolet 2500 hd?
If you have a speaker on the pillar, we believe you may actually have a 2nd gen Silverado. GM usually changed the 1500 first, but the 2500/3500 HD models usually didn’t follow that change until the next year. We do have the 17118 (triple) and the 17117 (double) that do accommodate the A Pillar Speaker that you may want to look into. If anything, contact firstname.lastname@example.org and talk to a tech agent.

Mixing the spirit of Mr Smith Goes to Washington and Nayak — admittedly quite unintentionally, according to its makers — VIP, running in cinemas since Eidul Azha, is the only bona fide high-concept motion picture in our summer cinematic lineup.
The comedy with a touch of social message stars Haris Kamal (Zach), a good-hearted, goofy lower-middle class man who is picked up by three villains — a cigar-chomping land baron (Ehtashamuddin), a crafty lawyer with perpetual red eyes (Saleem Mairaj, excellent), and a hoodlum boss who always wears black shades (Akhtar Hasnain) — to be the next mayor of Karachi. There is a catch though — the juvenile, giddy and gullible idiot has to go to school first.
As silly as any South Indian film with its unorthodox plot — and shot with the same eye as far as visual attitude and atmosphere go — VIP is long-time cinematographer Rana Kamran’s directorial debut.
Rana has lensed Na Maloom Afraad, its sequel, Actor in Law, Load Wedding, Quaid-e-Azam Zindabad, Khel Khel Mein, Ishrat Made in China, Heer Maan Jaa, Mah-e-Mir, and hundreds of commercials, so the man knows his work quite well. His palette is clean, the colours (by colourist Jazib Junaid) are conventional and vibrant, the staging and blocking of the talent populate the frame quite well (which, by the way falls under his directorial duties), and the lack of complicated, unnecessary cinematographic shenanigans suit the tone and setting of the premise.
Donning multiple hats — he also produces and co-writes the screenplay with Saqib Zafar, who also gets a co-director credit (the story is by the leading man, Zach) — Rana forces quite a few creative decisions on editor Asif Mumtaz, like the abrupt sharp-cuts as a scene ends that leave little audio or video transitory breathing spaces between scenes. In fact, some scenes are so tightly stacked together that they leave little room for the viewer to attune their emotions from one scenario to the next.
One can see the reasoning for these decisions though — snipping heads and tails of scenes chomps off running time, which VIP is a tad indulgent on. The film runs to two hours and 17 minutes, but it could have easily been two hours, because despite the cuts, the story has an overlong sequence on Haris’ high school life.
Enrolled in school to qualify for the mayor’s position, Haris falls for the smart, young, beauty Rukhsana (Nimra), his teacher who comes from a humble, righteous family — her father, actor Akbar Islam, is a teacher as well. Sparks fly, chirpy songs are danced to, and the story grinds to a halt.
When the story gears up again, you know exactly how it is going to turn out — or wish, that in some events, how it could have turned out. For example, the villains could have just given Haris a fake degree.
Things are too easy for Haris, and there is never really much of a conflict that he has to overcome. Despite the buffoonery, this makes Haris a dud of a protagonist. Coupled with Zach’s amateurish performance, the hero himself puts a dent in what could have been a neat little package.
To counter the shortfalls, VIP puts the bulk of the weight on Ehtashamuddin, Mairaj, Hasnain and Irfan Motiwala in his most effective and well-acted role in years — he plays Haris’ personal assistant assigned by the baddies.
The casualness of the narrative, the fitting production quality, and the okay-ish soundtrack by Shani Arshad, do offset the lacks, though by how much depends on the individual viewer’s taste and preference.
Released by Hum Films and executive produced by S Syma, produced by Xpose Films, VIP is running in cinemas Pakistan-wide. | [

|標題:||Signal Remodulation Ring WDM Passive Optical Network with Rayleigh Backscattering Interferometric Noise Mitigation|
|作者:||Yeh, C. H.|

|關鍵字:||Rayleigh backscattering;WDM;passive optical network (PON);DPSK;OOK;sensitivity|
|摘要:||We propose and demonstrate a novel and simple signal remodulation ring-based wavelength division multiplexed passive optical network (WDM-PON) scheme with the capability to mitigate the Rayleigh backscattering (RB) beat noise in colorless signal remodulation operation. The effects of RB can be avoided since the backscattering effects and upstream signals travel in opposite directions. Here, 10 Gb/s DPSK downstream is used to launch into reflective optical semiconductor amplifier (RSOA)-based optical network unit (ONU) for signal remodulation at 1.25 or 2.5 Gb/s on-off keying (OOK). Moreover, the network performance has also been analyzed and discussed.|

From the classics to the exotic, over 100 unique cars were on display along Brant Street. Organizers picked Burlington for the First Annual Car Show because it is located between Oakville and Hamilton. Or as car enthusiasts would remember, located between the Oakville Ford plant and Hamilton’s former Studebaker plant. It’s been nearly 50 years since the last studebaker was made, yet people still remember where they came from. The car show paid tribute to Hamilton’s role in the car manufacturing industry.

How to Maintain a Healthy Friendship
Friendships are an essential part of our inner circle, they provide support, laughter, comfort and honesty. The intimacy and emotional bonds we have within our friendships are unique, each friendship you have is a puzzle piece that can complete who you are. But what happens when you lose that one piece in the middle or a piece becomes faded, the picture the puzzle has created is no longer complete.
This same thing happens in our friendships, we lose contact, rarely speak or even spend quality time with one another. Just as with any other relationship, good friendships don’t come without maintenance, accountability and intentionality. Being caught up in our busy schedules and woes of life can sometimes cause our friendships to be pushed to the sideline. These are a few tips I use to be more intentional with how I treat my friendships.
1. Communicate Regularly
One of the most important aspects of a healthy friendship is regular communication. Communication forms could be call, text or FaceTime, these conversations don’t have to be long but serve as a way to sustain your bond. This can vary from friendship to friendship, once a week or every other week.
2. Plan Dates
Making time for each other is essential in maintaining a friendship. Whether it’s a girls night at your house, coffee date or going on a hot girl walk, find the time to spend that one on one time with each other. Just as you would schedule or plan for any other obligation, make your friendships just as important.
3. Show Appreciation
Showing your appreciation in thoughtful gestures has a big impact on how you make your friend feel. Small simple gestures show that you are thinking of the other person and value the friendship. You can also show your appreciation by complimenting them, supporting them on their life endeavors or expressing your gratitude.
4. Being Honest & Open
Honesty is essential in all solid relationships. When you have honesty in your friendship, it’s easier to navigate misunderstandings or issues that come up in friendship. Being honest and open can help you be genuine, it is often difficult to be yourself around someone you can’t trust. When you are dishonest and closed off it changes the dynamics of the friendship and weakens the bond. Honesty also includes having hard conversations, being a good friend doesn’t equal being an always-answering-yes person. The healthiest friendships are those that can hold each accountable in love without fear of someone being upset.
5. Praying for One Another
Prayer is an aspect of friendship that can be done on your own time or with one another. There are things that your friend may not share in full detail, but you can use that information to pray on their behalf. | [

2018 Meeting Programme

|6-7 Dec 2018||Extended reach and frontier drilling operations/ technologies
Q418: Extended reach and frontier drilling operations/ technologies
Access to the world’s known energy reserves is constrained, therefore interest in both exploration and development drilling in remote regions continues to grow. A common feature of frontier drilling is access in a fragile or inhospitable environment, logistical challenges and high operating costs, all of which often require unique operating methods. In instances where offshore reservoir targets lie near remote shorelines, extended-reach technology have helped minimise the impact of drilling on the environment while still allowing access to reserves in sensitive areas. Since high departure wells are more complex and expose the rig, crew, BHA and tubulars to a unique set of drilling variables, cost effective operations usually require higher spec equipment, controlled drilling and tripping practices, enhanced reliability and a highly competent rig crew. Downhole ERD technologies are usually focused on overcoming drag forces that prevent pipe from sliding, managing friction to reduce torque requirements, maintaining pressure within equipment limitations, and keeping ECDs inside a narrow pore pressure / fracture gradient window.
The following topics provide areas of interest, but other suggestions relevant to the meeting theme are welcomed.

Do most people tell their partners they have herpes?
There are no black and white rules for telling your partner you have herpes, and everyone needs to make their own decisions depending on the situation, but the fact is more people are accepted by new partners than rejected for having genital herpes. Some people choose not to tell casual partners.
Should I tell my partner I have herpes?
If you need to tell a romantic and potential sexual partner that you have herpes, its essential that you do this before you have any sexual contact. Herpes can spread easily, and theres a real risk of transmission even if you arent experiencing an outbreak.
Is it harder for a woman to give a man herpes?
The general rate of transmission of a person who has had herpes to their regular partner is about 10 percent per year, but the annual rate rises if the infected partner is a male. Unfairly, the female partner has a 20 percent chance of becoming infected, while the male partners risk is less than 10 percent. | [

The answer came after we started running molecular tests that look directly at the microbial makeup of MLSS. Running these tests, we found obligate anaerobic bacteria growing inside high D.O. basins. We then did extensive work on AOB/NOB inhbition with various influents and MLSS from different systems. Here is what we found:
- D.O. meter placement
D.O. meters read oxygen residual in the water phase at the probe/water interface. D.O. residuals are subject to probe placement and mixing. Is your D.O. meter giving you a true average residual or D.O. you do manual checks at other locations to confirm readings?
- Impact of MLSS concentrations
The aeration basin is not a homogenous mixture. We have water phase and solids. For oxygen to get inside the floc, it must pass through EPS and move from the water column into the biofilm. Larger floc or higher biosolids mean lower oxygen residuals inside the floc compred to the water on the exterior.
- Floc EPS levels
Floc includes insolube organics, biopolymers, and inorganics. Increasing amounts of non-living materials result in lower oxygen transfer efficiency. Remember that high EPS levels can reduce how much oxygen moves into the floc. Check your EPS using India Ink for an easy on-site EPS test.
- Check D.O. residual manually to confirm in basin meter numbers
- Monitor D.O. meter numbers and see where you get needed activity from obligate aerobes (AOB/NOB). You can also look at denitrification or phosphate release/uptake that require anoxic and anaerobic zones.
- Run Microbial Community Analysis (MCA) which is a molecular test that identifies all bacteria present. The MCA tells you what is growing and functioning in the system. | [

US Airways, American Airlines Close To Merger Deal [Report]
The two airlines are currently negotiating a deal and neither airline has confirmed whether a deal will happen or not.
USA Today reports that the deal may be announced as early as next week, but other reports but the announcement a few weeks out.
Spokeswoman for US Airways, Liz Landau, stated that the airline has a non-disclosure agreement with American, preventing it from any comments on the situation. A spokesman for American Airlines also declined commenting.
Should they merge, the combined airline would be the largest in the world in terms of revenue. It would be worth more than $10 billion. United Continental is currently the biggest US airline by traffic, but that could also change if US Airways and American Airlines merge.
Forbes adds that the merger deal is not a guarantee and talks could fall apart at any time. But it appears that American Airlines’ creditors support the deal, so it is likely it will go through.
According to reports, the merger discussions are at an advanced stage. AMR (American’s parent company) Chief Executive Tom Horton and US Airways CEO Doug Parker, along with a small circle of advisers, are working together to negotiate the potential merger.
Should the merger go through, the majority of air travel in America would be under the control of American, Delta Air Lines, United Continental, and Southwest Airlines.
There is no confirmation from either company that a merger is in the works. | [

Comparative Hydrological and Geoelectrical Study on the Quaternary Aquifer in the Deltas of Wadi Badaa and Ghweiba, El Ain El Sukhna Area, Northwest Suez Gulf, Egypt
International Journal of Geophysics
El Ain El Sukhna area was selected in the last ten years to initiate many governmental and investmental programs. The different activities in that area depend mainly on the groundwater of the Quaternary aquifer, which forms the main water bearing strata. In the present work, twenty one geoelctrical soundings using the Schlumberger configuration are carried out at selected sites especially in missing parts from wells to delineate the groundwater setting in such sites. Eight of them are conducted
... them are conducted in the close vicinity of water wells, where lithologs and pumping test data of these wells are available to relate hydrologic and geoelctric measurements. The pumping tests data are analyzed by using AQTESOLV program and the geolectrical sounding data were interpreted by partial curve matching technique to obtain the initial parameters. The results indicated that, the transmissivity is found to be closely related with transverse resistance and the hydraulic conductivity with average transverse resistivity, while the salinity is inversely related with resistivity. Finally, priority map for drilling water wells is constructed to make the results more illustrative and useful for decision maker. The promising area for drilling is located at the western portion of the study region. | [

Health benefits of eating fruits are exceptional for perfect health. They are an excellent source of natural vitamins and minerals which are needed by your body for proper functioning. Nutritionists recommend inclusion of dietary fiber in your daily diets and fruits are the best source of gut-friendly fiber. It keeps your digestion and vent system work properly and protects from ailments like constipation, gastritis etc.
We know very well, the human body is knowledgeable construction and several disparate convoluted reactions takes place in every fraction of the moment. Today, everyone has a busy lifestyle due to that reason most of the people’s eating pattern become arranged with preservatives and processed foods, that are not only lacking imperative nutrients but can also responsible for the birth of noxious disease in the human body. When your body shows any health disorders or it falls ill, these kinds of concerns are recover or treated with a healthy diet which can be easily gained by eating various nutritious fruits.
Many fruits are also an excellent source of antioxidants. They help you fight free radicals which can protect you from many diseases. Many studies recommend that eating a diet rich in flavonoids can lower the risk of heart disease by a surprise 65 percent. Antioxidants may also help you improve the health and quality of your skin and hair.
Health benefits of fruits:
Fruits are absolutely cholesterol free
They are low in sodium and calories
Rich in potassium, Vitamin C, Folate
Dietary fiber in fruits helps reduce cholesterol and lowers risk of heart ailments
Fruits are also an excellent source of antioxidants
Our body digests fruits effortlessly and provides an instant supply of energy in the very short interval of time, it is considered a prime benefit of fruits that one can take advantage of busy schedules. Therefore, sports person, gymnastics, pregnant women and sick patients are mostly guided by doctors to add fruits to their balanced diet for the incessant supply of energy which required by the body in a natural manner.
Almost, every species of fruits have the spacious nutritional profile but you know, type and quantity of nutrients vary with the selection of different fruits in your diet. The nutrients in fruit are censorious for health and maintenance of your body. The potassium in fruit can reduce your risk of heart disease and stroke. Potassium may also decline the risk of developing kidney stones and help to decrease bone loss as you age.
The comfort of fruit for your hair health can be enjoyed through hair masks. Melon and banana hair masks are endorsed by many beauty professionals for hair care at home. You can also make a paste of lemon juice and aloe vera and apply it to your hair. Keep the paste on for approximately minutes and then exhaustively wash your hair with mild shampoo. These packs not only improve hair quality but also terminate scalp disorders like dandruff and itching.
Best way to consume fruits is to eat them raw and when they are ripe. Avoid cooking fruits as all the nutrients will be lost. Eating a diet rich in fruits may protect you from certain kinds of cancer. FODMAPs are found in dairy, wheat, garlic, onions, beans, some fruits, artificial sweeteners, and other foods. And some people simply aren’t able to digest them very well. | [

Learning differential equation models from stochastic agent-based model simulations
Nardini JT., Baker RE., Simpson MJ., Flores KB.
Agent-based models provide a flexible framework that is frequently used for modelling many biological systems, including cell migration, molecular dynamics, ecology, and epidemiology. Analysis of the model dynamics can be challenging due to their inherent stochasticity and heavy computational requirements. Common approaches to the analysis of agent-based models include extensive Monte Carlo simulation of the model or the derivation of coarse-grained differential equation models to predict the expected or averaged output from the agent-based model. Both of these approaches have limitations, however, as extensive computation of complex agent-based models may be infeasible, and coarse-grained differential equation models can fail to accurately describe model dynamics in certain parameter regimes. We propose that methods from the equation learning field provide a promising, novel, and unifying approach for agent-based model analysis. Equation learning is a recent field of research from data science that aims to infer differential equation models directly from data. We use this tutorial to review how methods from equation learning can be used to learn differential equation models from agent-based model simulations. We demonstrate that this framework is easy to use, requires few model simulations, and accurately predicts model dynamics in parameter regions where coarse-grained differential equation models fail to do so. We highlight these advantages through several case studies involving two agent-based models that are broadly applicable to biological phenomena: a birth-death-migration model commonly used to explore cell biology experiments and a susceptible-infected-recovered model of infectious disease spread. | [

When I attended the Relief Society Enrichment meeting last week, someone mentioned resurrection rolls. Intrigued, I went searching for them and found a great recipe! I just knew I had to make these!
Last night when we got home from Port Orchard, we gathered the boys into the kitchen and told them we were going to have a special Easter lesson/project. They were excited. Mike and I read the Easter story to them out of Matthew and explained harder vocabulary words to them. We read all the way up to the point where it says Jesus was in the tomb for three days. Then we stopped to make the rolls. We each got a triangle of crescent roll dough. The dough represents the linen that Jesus' body was wrapped in after he had died. Then we each got a large marshmallow, which represented the body of Jesus. We dipped our marshmallows in melted butter, which represented the embalming oils used. And then we dipped it in cinnamon sugar, which represents the spices used on his body. We folded the sides of the dough up and over the marshmallow and pinched it together to "seal" the marshmallow inside (they wouldn't seal perfectly). We repeated the process to use up the rest of the dough. Then we put the tray of rolls into the oven, which represents the tomb. The rolls were baked for 12-15 minutes at 350F, which represented three days in the tomb.
When they were done, I took them out of the oven and covered them loosely with a towel so that the kids wouldn't see them. I let them cool slightly and then chose the best looking ones (not the ones that had a lot of marshmallow "ooze" around them) and put them on a plate. We all sat at the table and continued on with our Easter story. We talked about Mary coming to the tomb and the angel had told her that Jesus was not there, that he had risen. We asked the boys to open the rolls and tell us what they saw. They mentioned that Jesus was gone! We said, "That is correct, because after three days' time in the tomb, he had risen and was resurrected."
We LOVED this activity and I think we may need to make this an Easter tradition!

‘Trapped in a jungle of crazy flesh eaters!’
Eaten Alive! – original title: Mangiati vivi! – is a 1980 Italian cannibal film written and directed by Umberto Lenzi (Nightmare City; Eyeball; Seven Blood-Stained Orchids; et al). The story is loosely based on the Jonestown Massacre of 1978. Alternative titles include Doomed to Die; The Emerald Jungle and Eaten Alive by Cannibals.
The film stars Robert Kerman, Janet Agren, Paola Senatore, Mel Ferrer, Ivan Rassimov and Me Me Lai.
Alongside Cannibal Holocaust and Cannibal Ferox, Eaten Alive! is one of the most notorious cannibal films. The film features scenes of nudity, castration, carnal assault, animal cruelty, graphic gore and mondo footage of a pain ceremony.
Most of the violent scenes from the film were lifted from other movies in the genre, namely Lenzi’s previous cannibal film from 1972, The Man from Deep River (footage of a mongoose fighting a cobra and a native woman being sexually assaulted); Ruggero Deodato’s Last Cannibal World (a tribal castration and fatal punishment scene, 1976) and Sergio Martino’s The Mountain of the Cannibal God (a python eating a monkey, 1978).
At Niagara Falls and then in Manhattan, a trio of men are killed by an Asian assailant with a deadly blow-pipe. The police are baffled…
Meanwhile, Alabama-born Sheila (Janet Agren) is searching for her sister Diana (Paola Senatore), who has disappeared in New Guinea. Sheila hires American dropout Mark (Robert Kerman), and they encounter many jungle perils, especially when one of their guides is eaten by a crocodile.
It transpires that Diana has joined a “purification” cult run by a “cruel sadist” named Jonas (Ivan Rassimov). Jonas physically and sexually abuses his followers and local people alike…
“This is not a good film by any means, and probably the most inept of all the Italian cannibal outings. And, as with most cannibal films, it contains the obligatory animal violence, which many find offensive. But, if you’re a tolerant film viewer, this can also be good, cheesy fun. The film is full of appalling dialogue, excessive gore and bad acting, with some gratuitous nudity added to the heady mix.” Digital Retribution
“So devoid of logic that it could be termed dreamlike if it were more technically proficient, Eaten Alive heaps on the gory goods […] Lenzi shot this one fast, loose and quick, so it’s a credit that, repugnant animal atrocities aside, the results turned out to be this fast-paced and entertaining.” Nathaniel Thompson, Mondo Digital
“As a fan of Italian horror from this time period, I did get a kick out of just how outrageous Eaten Alive! was, though I realize that opinion will likely put me in the minority. So, for everyone else, let me sum up by saying Eaten Alive! is an exploitative, mean-spirited, often sickening gorefest.” Dave Becker, 2,500 Movies Challenge
“The reflectionist commentary of Cannibal Holocaust is obviously missing here, and its collection of atrocities being visited on (mostly) female bodies is little more than standard gore-fare, but there is a certain urge to the film that is difficult to describe. It is almost as if the film could not quite decide what it wanted to be and attempted to cover its back by touching upon key genre elements…” HorrorNews.net
“So it’s a faster moving film than Ferox (the gory cannibal action happens much earlier) but comes across as a blander production with only the nudity and well handled gore holding the attention. Enjoyably cheesy but only really recommended to Italian trash cinema completists.” Beardy Freak
“The gore scenes housed within the film “proper” are laughably crude, but fairly mean-spirited and indicative of the era. To Lenzi’s merit, there has at least been an attempt to match in the stock footage, from the previously mentioned films, that helps gloss over their blatant pilferage.” M.C. Thomason, Sex Gore Mutants
“You saw a monkey do his job. The survival of the fittest. You’ll see a lot worse before this is over.”
“The whole world has to know that the stone age still exists. Not everybody’s living in the space age.” | [

Wine and Food Pairing by Foods
Salad : Sauvignon Blanc, Picpoul Pe Pinet, Italian Whites
There’s no need to spend a lot of money on wine to match with salad. Just pick a refreshing dry white (or perhaps a rose). Things like Picppoul de Pinet and most Italian whites work well. If you are looking to splash out on something pricier, avoid dressing with vinegear – use lemon juice instead.
Tomato Salad : New Zealand, Sauvignon Blanc
Tomatoes are tricky to pair with wine. Being high in acidity, they can easily overpower whatever you’re drinking with plenty of flavour and enough acid of its own. Sauvignon Blanc is an excellent choice, either from the Loire or, even better, New Zealand.
Patatoes, Winter Squash, Legumes : Chardonnay, Beaujolais, Barbera, Tempranillo, Shiraz
For simple roast or grilled vegetables, a full-bodied Chardonnay or a light, fruity red like a Beuajolais both work well. For legumes, you need something with more body, so opt for a Shiraz. If you’re making a baked dish, almost any high quality red will be great match – try something from a classic region of Italy or Spain.
Fish : Italian White or White Burgundy
It’s traditional but it works – most fish dishes taste best with white wines. Simple fish dishes are the perfect background for top quality whites from almost anywhere (try Italy), but for those in an richer sauce white Burgundy is your best bet.
Lean & Flaky Fish i.e. Seabass : Grüner Veltliner, Vermentino, Pinot Grigio, Chablis, Reisling
Sea bass and similar fish are perfect matched with fragrant, fine whites. Top quality Grüner Veltliner, dry Riesling and many Italian whites can be excellent. Just as important as the fish is the sauce with extra spice, choose a fuller-bodied Riesling. Go for Chardonnay with buttery sauces.
Lobster : Fine White Burgundy, Vintage Champagne
Lobster is a grand dish an a worthy partner for an equally grand wine. Fine vintage Champagne or top quality white Burgundy are classic matches.
Beef / Lamb : Beef – Amarone, Barolo Lamb – Bordeaux, Rioja
Roast beef and grilled steaks are ideally paired with full-bodied reds. Amarone, Barolo, Shiraz and Lebanon’s Chateau Musar spring to mind. Lamb needs a less full-bodied red, but | [

Gagosian will be participating in 8-bridges, a new online initiative created to highlight artists and galleries in the San Francisco Bay Area. Launching in October 2020, 8-bridges will present monthly exhibitions by Bay Area galleries, with a particular focus on artists and conversations relevant to the region. The platform will feature eight new presentations each month, and each cycle will also spotlight a local institution, starting with the Museum of the African Diaspora in San Francisco. Gagosian is pleased to be a member of the 8-bridges founding committee. The gallery’s inaugural presentation will be devoted to the work of Jay DeFeo.

October 1–31, 2020
I’ve always got to get down there and show what is underneath everything.
Gagosian is pleased to present works by Jay DeFeo on 8-bridges, a newly launched online platform created to highlight artists and galleries in the San Francisco Bay Area. Honoring the rich history of the Bay Area art scene, the inaugural presentation features selected works from the exhibition Transcending Definition: Jay DeFeo in the 1970s, on view at Gagosian, San Francisco, through December 11, 2020. DeFeo spent most of her life in the San Francisco Bay Area and remains an influential figure in the region. The 8-bridges presentation focuses on the artist’s output in the decade following the completion of her pivotal work The Rose (1958–66), when she was based in Marin County, just north of San Francisco. In her paintings, photographs, and works on paper of the 1970s, DeFeo fused the representational with the abstract, permeating her images of everyday objects—a camera tripod, a jewelry fragment, a shoe tree—with a sense of mystery. The artist described her works of this period as “beings suspended in space and time” that “transcend the definition of the literal objects from which they are derived.”

Civil society, including pro-democracy groups, have long been at the forefront of efforts, to challenge Nigeria?s ruling party?s dominance of the government.
People?s Democratic Party, PDP, according to the group, consistently manipulated the electoral process by controlling the police and the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC. They say it pays off would-be opponents to subvert the electoral process.
The PDP denies the charge and says it encourages civil society groups to provide election monitors.
Pro-democracy groups intensified their opposition to the government after President Umaru Yar?Adua acknowledged that the process that brought him into power was flawed.
Associations like the Transitional Monitoring Group, TMG, monitored the last election and said it fell short of internationally acceptable standards.
The associations say criticism of the PDP is an attempt to force the party to take its responsibilities seriously according to Innocent Chukwuma former chairman of the TMG.
Our objection to PDP is not personal
?It is largely a function of the disagreement we have with them about how the party which controls the government has piloted the affairs of the country over the past ten years of elected civilian government. [It?s a question of] how the party, through its policies and practices have practically closed the democratic space,"Chukwuma says.
In 1999, when the PDP assumed power, malpractices and irregularities in the electoral process were observed. However Nigerians gave the government the benefit of the doubt hoping the government structure, and the electoral process would improve.
?That has not happened,? says Mr. Chukwuma.
The ruling party on the other hand says civil society groups are taking the sides of the opposition because some of their members belong to the opposition.
According to Chukwuma PDP has dashed the hope of Nigerians to one day freely elect their leaders.
The ruling party denies the charge that it is refusing to speed up reforms, ready to be implemented in the upcoming election next year. Officials say the government is looking into a report on how to overhaul the entire process rather than taking a piecemeal approach.
But civil society groups say the government is not sincere since it retained the right to appoint the powerful head of INEC, the Independent National Electoral Commission.
The move disappointed millions of Nigerians.
"People expected the electoral process to be much more open and transparent. But what we are seeing is a hijacking of not just the electoral process but state institutions that would have put politicians in check," Chukwuma explains.

Curative Effects of Vitamin against Cisplatin Induced Nephrotoxicity in Male Albino RatsAuthor(s): Javed Iqbal*
Cisplatin (CP) is generally used as a chemotherapeutic agent due to its therapeutic effects against cancer. Vitexin (VIT) is an apigenin flavone having pharmacological effects along with its anti-oxidant, anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective activities which is a dynamic component of many traditional medicines around the Asian regions. The current study was designed to assess the curative potential of VIT on CP induced nephrotoxicity in male albino rats. Four experimental groups of 24 male albino rats were formed and treated as group I (Control), group II (Cisplatin; 10mg/kg injection at the first day of trial), group III (CP;10 mg/kg+VIT;10mg/kg) and group IV (VIT; 10mg/kg orally till the end of trial) for 30 days. Activity of catalase (CAT), superoxide dismutase (SOD), peroxidase (POD), glutathione (GSH), glutathione reductase (GSR), glutathione S-transferase (GST), level of lipid peroxidation (TBARS) level of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), urine and serum profiles, comet parameters and histology were observed in this study. CP treated rats showed considerably (p<0.05) reduced antioxidant enzyme activity, creatinine clearance, albumin and a considerable (p<0.05) increase in the level of H2O2, TBARS, urea, creatinine, urobilinogen, urinary proteins and tissue damage. CP injection also resulted in DNA fragmentation and abnormalities. While co-treatment of VIT with CP displayed considerable (p<0.05) recovery of damaged kidneys. VIT administrated rats showed normal experimental parameters and tissue histology. As a conclusion, VIT is considered as an effective curative compound because of its therapeutic potential against CP prompted nephrotoxicity.. | [

Can you program a quantum computer?
IBM provides a tool called Circuit Composer to write quantum programs by dragging and dropping gates individually on qubits. Developers can also program using Qiskit, an open-source quantum programming platform that uses Python.
What is a quantum bit in computing?
A qubit (or quantum bit) is the quantum mechanical analogue of a classical bit. In classical computing the information is encoded in bits, where each bit can have the value zero or one. In quantum computing the information is encoded in qubits.
How does a quantum bit work?
Quantum computers perform calculations based on the probability of an object’s state before it is measured – instead of just 1s or 0s – which means they have the potential to process exponentially more data compared to classical computers. A single state – such as on or off, up or down, 1 or 0 – is called a bit.
Does Google have a quantum computer?
Now, however, Google’s quantum computer has achieved something that could have real-world applications: successfully simulating a simple chemical reaction. “It shows that, in fact, this device is a completely programmable digital quantum computer that can be used for really any task you might attempt,” he says.
Is coding required for quantum computing?
To get started with quantum, you will probably need to know some programming basics. Although there are currently some programming languages that are completely designed to program quantum computers, you don’t need to learn such languages when you get into the field.
Who is the father of quantum computing?
David Deutsch, the Father of Quantum Computing, but who is he? Please note: This article contains affiliate links. Sure there is Wikipedia, but we thought we’d delve a bit more into the one person who might be described as the father of Quantum Computing.
How fast is quantum computing?
In 200 seconds, the machine performed a mathematically designed calculation so complex that it would take the world’s most powerful supercomputer, IBM’s Summit, 10,000 years to do it. This makes Google’s quantum computer about 158 million times faster than the world’s fastest supercomputer.
Can quantum computers break Bitcoins?
The notion that a quantum computer might someday break bitcoin is quickly gaining ground. That’s because quantum computers are becoming powerful enough to factor large prime numbers, a critical component of bitcoin’s public key cryptography.
Who owns a quantum computer?
IBM is one of the major quantum computing firms, and it’s a perfect way to get in contact with professionals in the field of research, theory, and computer science, which are three of the company’s core areas of expertise.
How much money does a quantum computer cost?
Head SpinQ A startup based in Shenzhen, China, called SpinQ has unveiled a quantum computer that can fit on a desk — and it costs less than $5,000, as Discover Magazine reports.
Is Python used in quantum computing?
Additionally, other packages and toolboxes like QuTiP (numerical simulations) and ProjectQ exist to make working with quantum systems even easier. Python is a great programming language to start learning if you’re interesting in working with quantum computers one day.
How does quantum bit work?
In a quantum computer, bits (binary digits) are stored not by transistors but by individual atoms, ions, electrons, or photons linked together (“entangled”) and acting as quantum bits called qubits. These quantum-scale “switches” can store multiple values simultaneously and work on different problems in parallel.
How does a qubit work?
Qubits represent atoms, ions, photons or electrons and their respective control devices that are working together to act as computer memory and a processor. Because a quantum computer can contain these multiple states simultaneously, it has the potential to be millions of times more powerful than today’s most powerful supercomputers.
What is a qubit physically?
A physical qubit is a physical device that behaves as a two-state quantum system, used as a component of a computer system.
What are qubits in quantum computing?
A qubit is a quantum bit, the counterpart in quantum computing to the binary digit or bit of classical computing. Just as a bit is the basic unit of information in a classical computer, a qubit is the basic unit of information in a quantum computer. | [

NCAA Baseball Championships:
DandyDon is proud to recognize David Toms as a great ambassador of the Tiger Nation.
4/20/14 5:30 am CT
Good morning, Tiger Fans, and Happy Easter.
The LSU baseball team came away with a huge 2-0 win yesterday to claim the series at Ole Miss and improve to 30-10-1 overall and 10-7-1 in the SEC play. Heading into the contest, Game 3 pitching was a huge concern for the Tigers, so it sure was nice to see an outstanding outing by starter Alden Cartwright and the three bullpen pitchers who followed him - Hunter Devall, Parker Bugg and Kurt McCune. The shutout was the Tigers’ 12th of the season, marking a new school record. It also marked the first time Ole Miss has been shutout this season.
Cartwright wasn’t really expected to work more than two innings in what was his first career SEC start, but ended up pitching four solid innings while allowing just two singles with no walks and two strikeouts. He retired the first 10 Rebel batters he faced before allowing back to back singles in the fourth and getting himself into a bit of a jam. Fortunately, Cartwright got out of the jam unscathed by inducing an inning-ending double play. I look for Cartwright to play a major role in the weekend pitching rotation moving forward.
Devall, Bugg and McCune followed Cartwright with outstanding outings of their own. Devall (1-0) was credited win the win as he entered the game to start the fifth and pitched 2.2 innings, limiting the Rebels to two hits with no walks and two strikeouts. Bugg relieved Devall in the seventh and pitched 1.1 innings, allowing only one hit. McCune worked the ninth and earned his third save of the season, allowing one hit with one strikeout.
The Tigers only collected five hits in the game, but swung the bat better than that sounds and seemed more aggressive at the plate then normal. Coach Mainieri made an interesting change the batting order and inserted freshman Jake Fraley in the three hole while moving Bregman down to 6th in the order. Unfortunately, the move didn’t help Bregman as he went 0-for-3 in the game. Fraley singled in his first at bat and went 1-for-4 on the day.
The Tigers were led at the plate by Connor Hale who went 2-for-3 with an RBI on a solo homer in the 8th. Hale has really been swinging the bat well and scored five of the Tigers’ seven runs in the three-game series despite not playing in Friday’s game.
Here are LSU’s video highlights of yesterday’s game. Check out Mark Laird’s remarkable catch at the 2:24 mark. He also made an outstanding catch in in foul territory that ended with a nice encounter with an Ole Miss cheerleader, but that one didn’t make the highlight reel. :)
The LSU softball team also came away with a big series win by defeating South Carolina 13-5 in the resumption of game one, which was suspended Friday, and then winning 14-1 in Game 2. The Tigers, who are now 27-19 overall and 8-9 in SEC play, will go for the series sweep today at noon from South Carolina’s Beckham Field.
In closing, I'd like to once again wish all of you a very blessed Easter Sunday. You know me, I tend to get a little reminiscent at holiday time, especially around Easter and Thanksgiving. For my family, both have always been very special holidays filled with traditions that I hope will be passed along to many future generations. As a kid, we would always get up early to see what the Easter Bunny brought, and then head to the early Easter mass before gathering with the extended family to share a good meal. And of course, we would always paque-paque eggs. For those of you who aren’t familiar with this Cajun tradition, it’s a contest whereby one person holds his hardboiled, dyed Easter egg, small side up, while the opponent takes his own egg, small end down, and gently knocks it against the other egg repeatedly. The loser (the person whose egg cracks) has to surrender his cracked egg to the winner. We used to always do this at my MawMaw and PawPaw Ardoin’s house in Ville Platte, and it seems like their country eggs would always beat our store-bought eggs. Now that I have chickens of my own, I’m eager to see how our yard eggs fare. In case you’re wondering, the term paque-paque (pock-pock) comes not only from the sound made by the knocking of the eggs, but also from the word for Easter in | [

Wikipedia in English
Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0789481596, Hardcover)This book tells of the billions of wandering objects, from dust-particles to moon-sized lumps of rock, and of the random but vital roles they play in the drama of our evolving solar system. To human beings on Earth, comets have always been objects of mystery and terror. This fear, once dismissed as superstition, is sometimes justified; comets really can bring catastrophes in their wake. Research show that comets are close relatives of both the space dust which forms meteors or shooting stars, and of the larger, inert rocks -- the asteroids -- which circle the Sun by the millions. Left over from the formation of the solar system, all of these objects have threatened Earth with massive impacts and "nuclear winters." However, they have also been part of the process by which the Solar System renews itself -- we may owe our very existence to the impact that destroyed the dinosaurs 65 million years ago. The threat of collision with the Earth has placed comets and asteroids at the top of the agenda for astronomers, the public, and, increasingly, for governments. Comets, Meteors, and Asteroids presents a fascinating and insightful exploration of these space wanderers of the cosmos.
