Chevron sells Gulf of Mexico assets to Cox Oil
Oil major Chevron and a privately owned, independent oil and gas company, Cox Oil, have completed a transaction in which Cox Oil acquired a number of assets in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico from Chevron.
Cox Oil said that the acquisition included 19 fields and associated assets located primarily on the GOM Outer Continental Shelf and in Louisiana state waters.
“Today’s closing further demonstrates Cox Oil’s dedication to the Gulf of Mexico and the Outer Continental Shelf. We look forward to welcoming the more than 100 Chevron employees that will be joining our team,” said Brad E. Cox, Chairman and Founder of Cox Oil.
“This transaction contributes to our long term, strategic focus in the oil and gas industry. We are grateful to Chevron and their professional staff for their dedication and efforts in this process,” said Craig Sanders, CEO of Cox Oil.
According to Cox Oil, the asset acquisition package includes 170 active wells, 70 platforms, 70 caissons and other offshore structures.
The financial aspect of the deal was not disclosed. The closing date for the transaction was April 15, 2016. | [

Could a daily “baby” aspirin help ensure the safe delivery of healthy babies? Recent research examines what role aspirin may play in both reducing the risk of miscarriage, as well as reducing the risk of developing preeclampsia later in pregnancy. However, health care providers also warn expectant mothers, or those who are trying to conceive, not to start taking aspirin daily before talk to their provider. Chief of Women’s Services at Lovelace, Dr. Abraham Lichtmacher explains what this latest research means for women considering getting pregnant.
“The use of aspirin has been recommended for a variety of conditions related to pregnancy complications,” says Dr. Lichtmacher. Related to the study of more than 1,000 women with a history of miscarriage, a daily low-dose aspirin (81 mg) was found to slightly reduce the rate of miscarriage, but only for a subset of the study population. Overall, researchers discovered no difference in outcomes for those who took aspirin compared to a placebo. “Early miscarriage may be due to many different reasons. The use of aspirin might be beneficial to reduce the risk due to a small portion of these reasons, but the evidence so far is inconclusive.”
Women who suffered a single miscarriage before 20 weeks, who were prescribed aspirin and tried to conceive within a year of the miscarriage, experienced the most notable results. 78 percent conceived and 62 percent had live births, compared to 66 percent and 53 percent respectively with the placebo.
Meanwhile, 7 million women each year face a potentially fatal disorder when they develop preeclampsia. Women with this condition experience extremely high blood pressure, as well as protein deposits in the urine. A task force of volunteer health care providers, which advises government health agencies, found a daily aspirin regime after 12 weeks of pregnancy could reduce the risk of preeclampsia for high-risk women by 24 percent and the rate of preterm delivery by 14 percent. While the findings appear to be good news for women at high-risk, Dr. Lichtmacher says more needs to be investigated. “Although we know a lot more about the disease than before, the exact causes are still elusive, and so the use of aspirin might be helpful in some very specific circumstances for patients who have risk specific factors,” he says. “The bottom line, for the average patient who is thinking of getting pregnant, I don’t recommend anything beyond good nutrition and a vitamin supplement with folic acid and iron.” | [

Screenwriter, Film director
1904 – 1954
Who was Rupert Kathner?
Rupert Kathner was an Australian film director best known for newsreels and low-budget films. He worked with Alma Brooks, an ex-barmaid, who co-produced, operated the camera, edited, co-scripted and acted in their films. Kathner and Brooks were also "shady con artists and fugitives from the law", sometimes described as the "Bonnie and Clyde" of the Australian film industry.

The measurement and monitoring of shoreline changes are of great interest to coastal managers and engineers. Shoreline change information can be crucial for the assessment of coastal disasters, design of coastal infrastructure and protection of coastal environment. This chapter presents shoreline change monitoring based on multispectral satellite imagery and sub-pixel technique. Firstly, a brief introduction of shoreline definitions and indicators is given. Sub-pixel techniques for shoreline mapping on multispectral satellite images are then introduced. Following that, a brief review of existing research studies of long-term shoreline change monitoring based on multispectral imagery is given. Subsequently, a case study of sub-pixel shoreline change monitoring at the northern Gold Coast on the east coast of Australia is presented. By comparing the longshore averaged beach widths at seven representative transects from Landsat with those from Argus imaging data, the RMSEs range from 9.1 to 12.3 m and the correlations are all no less than 0.7. Annual means and variabilities of beach widths were estimated without significant differences from the reference data for most of the results. Finally, conclusions and recommendations for future work are given. | [

We've developed free online Occupational Radiation Exposure (ORE) material for all people working in medical facilities that use ionising radiation, for example, X-rays and CT nuclear medicine.
We run an annual Practical Reference Dosimetry Course for external beam radiotherapy. Running over four days, the course covers the theory and provides hands-on experience in all areas of radiation dosimetry for external beams.
In collaboration with the medical sector, we have produced a Radiation Protection of the Patient (RPOP) Module to increase understanding of the radiation safety aspects of medical imaging.
Any person who uses a source or facility must have appropriate training in radiation safety. To assist licence holders comply with this condition we recognise radiation safety courses approved by the state and territory regulators. | [

RAID is an abbreviation for CHEAPedundant Aray of Independent EASYisks. Initial, RAID is used as a hedging solution because it allows data to be written to multiple hard disks at the same time. Later, RAID has had many variations that allow not only to ensure data safety but also to significantly increase the speed of accessing data from the hard disk. Here are five commonly used RAID types:
In the past few years, from being a “luxury” component only on mainframe systems, workstations, servers, RAID has been introduced into desktop computers as simple integration. However, it is possible that a buyer knows his motherboard (BMC) has RAID technology, but not everyone knows how to use it effectively. This article introduces basic information about RAID as well as some experiences to use to increase PC power.

WHAT IS RAID?
RAID is an abbreviation for CHEAPedundant Aray of Independent EASYisks. Initially, RAID was used as a hedge because it allowed data to be written to multiple hard disks at the same time. Later, RAID has had many variations that allow not only to ensure data safety but also to significantly increase the speed of accessing data from the hard disk. Here are five commonly used RAID types:
You may be interested in: types of hard drives, Types of high-quality storage drives, How to test VPS performance
RAID can be quickly understood through the information below:– RAID should only work with hard drives of equal capacity.- Using RAID will consume more drives than usual, but in return, data will be more secure.- RAID can be used for any system which operator, from Window 98, window 2000, window XP, Window 10, window server 2016, MAC OS X, Linux…etc– RAID 0 is equal to the total capacity of the drives combined.- RAID 1 only maintains the capacity of 1 drive.- RAID 5 will have less than 1 drive capacity (5 drives using raid 5 will have a capacity of 4 drives).- RAID 6 will have a capacity of less than 2 drives (5 drives using raid 6 will have a capacity of 3 drives).- RAID 10 will only be created when the number of drives is even, there must be a minimum of drive cells or more. The capacity is equal to the total number of drives divided in half (10 drives, the usable space is 5 drives). For example, with 1 type of 1TB drive:- If you have 2 hard drives: You can choose RAID 0 (If 1 drive is damaged, data will be lost), the total capacity when installing Windows will be 1 drive 2TB. Test: Unplug 1 drive => Report error immediately.- If you have 2 hard drives: You can choose RAID 1 (broken 1 data drive is still safe), the total capacity when installing Windows will be 1 drive 1TB. Test: Unplug 1 hard drive => No errors.- If you have 3 hard drives: You can choose RAID 1 (broken 2 data drives are still safe), the total capacity when installing Windows will be 1 drive 1TB. Test: Unplug 2 hard drives => No errors.- If you have 3 hard drives: You can choose RAID 5 (broken 1 data drive is still safe), the total capacity when installing Windows will be 1 drive 2TB. Test: Unplug 1 hard drive => No errors.- If you have 4 hard drives: You can choose RAID 5 (broken 1 data drive is still safe), the total capacity when installing Windows will | [

Reviewer’s Note: Samples of the products discussed here were provided to me for reviewing purposes at no cost.
With National Picnic Month going strong and a much-enjoyed family beach trip still fresh in our memories, a recent shipment of Maille Cornichons could not have arrived at a better time. Maille is internationally-renowned for the line of gourmet mustards it has produced since 1747, however its many other food products and accessories are held in equally high regard.
Noticeable right away about the cornichons (petite gherkins) was that they are firmer in texture than the pickles to which many people may be accustomed. Whereas most supermarket gherkins are marketed to emphasize their sweetness, Maille cornichons are tart with a clean-tasting flavor bearing none of the weight imparted to other pickles cured in brines overpowered by sugar or dill. Here, it is the gherkins themselves you are tasting, and any faint briny elements come across as a pleasant afterthought that enriches the cornichon without displacing its inherent flavor. Any sweetness to be derived from this product comes in the form of the pickled pearl onions added to the jar amidst the gherkins. Their taste of minimal sugar with that same fresh, barely-there briny element provides a nice companion to the tartness of the cornichons.
Another notable quality worth mentioning involves the brine in which these cornichons are packed. Whereas many pickle purveyors care nothing about subjecting their product to bathing in vats filled either with cloudy fluid resembling formaldehyde or antifreeze-green liquid that practically glows, the brine in these jars of Maille cornichons is clear. The cornichons are crisper than standard or even similar pickled gherkins, with a crunch that somehow manages to feel rewarding and adds undeniable excitement to any meal they join. Having enjoyed them with toasted breads, assorted cooked meats and deli cuts, and a variety of chutneys and relishes (not to mention some velvety Maille Dijon mustard), I can say with confidence and honesty that Maille cornichons are likely to please anyone who enjoys petite pickles with firm texture and crunch. Served with pates, breads, cheeses, meats, they add a level of sophistication to picnic meals, snack times, or any other occasion to enjoy good food.

Photovoltaic Solar installations are becoming more and more popular as the cost for installation continues to drop and the efficiency of panels improves.
There are a few key things to consider when installing photovoltaic solar.
1. Where will the installation be roof/ground
2. How should it be mounted
3. Where will the inverters for the panels be located
4. How will the energy be synced with the grid and any other generators currently connected onsite
5. Are there grants/funding for solar in your location available
6. Does the site need battery storage?
Solar is a relatively simple solution to implement and if you blend it with other energy projects it can bring a substantial advantage to sites.
Allowing them to produce their own electricity and removing the reliance as much on energy providers to give competitive rates on their electricity and allowing the site to become self-reliant.
See some of the main things to check for solar photovoltaic installations in the image below.

We have spectroscopically determined the optical bandgaps and band offsets at epitaxial interfaces of BaSnO3 with SrTiO3(001) and LaAlO3(001). 28 u.c. BaSnO3 epitaxial films exhibit direct and indirect bandgaps of 3.56 ± 0.05 eV and 2.93 ± 0.05 eV, respectively. The lack of a significant Burstein-Moss shift corroborates the highly insulating, defect-free nature of the BaSnO3 films. The conduction band minimum is lower in electron energy in 5 u.c. films of BaSnO3 than in SrTiO3 and LaAlO3 by 0.4 ± 0.2 eV and 3.7 ± 0.2 eV, respectively. This result bodes well for the realization of oxide-based, high-mobility, two-dimensional electron systems that can operate at ambient temperature, since electrons generated in the SrTiO3 by modulation doping, or at the BaSnO3/LaAlO3 interface by polarization doping, can be transferred to and at least partially confined in the BaSnO3 film.

Advances in printing, ink and fabric technology have made grand-format textile printing a strong growth area, particularly in the retail, home goods and trade show industries. This growth is attracting both sign and graphic shops as well as manufacturing companies to the textile industry.
Mike Wozny, senior product manager for EFI, says that his company recently entered the digital textile printing market with its July acquisition of Reggiani Macchine, which is based in Bergamo, Italy.
Reggiani’s inkjet technologies have been rebranded as EFI Reggiani and provide an extensive lineup of industrial inkjet printers that use water-based inks to print on fabric for the fashion and home furnishing textiles markets.
BIGGER, STRONGER, FASTER
Every year, the industry requests direct to fabric printers that can do the job faster and with a higher quality but at a lower price. And every year, the industry delivers, Wozny says.
“We have made significant inroads in the garment and home décor markets. When you hit the speeds we are hitting at the acquisition prices we are offering, the total cost of ownership is one-fifth of what it was five years ago,” he says. “Digital is more stable but much more mainstream in that textile garment industry as a result. They are making inroads into what was traditionally an analog business. It is much more digital today. As a result of that, a lot more industrial applications are coming online. Instead of painting a wall, you can use fabric today to change the look and feel of a room or hotel or overall space.”
The EFI Reggiani line of printers can print with 4 picoliter ink drop sizes at 8,000 square feet an hour. Three years ago, those speeds were unheard of. That has a lot to do with advances in printhead technology.
“They are more reliable, more repeatable, more accurate printheads,” he says. “The data paths to drive those printheads; the amount of data required to drive that is significant. And then the ink technology, along with the architecture to support it, has come a long way as well. If you look at the ease of use on inks, the consistency, it is a much better situation today than five to 10 years ago.”
The fabrics that are available for soft signage are also more advanced. They are softer, brighter and are more likely to be used in a direct printing application, he adds.
“Now there’s a good line of direct fabrics that come online that still have a very soft hand or feel to them that receive the ink well and provide an excellent image quality,” Wozny says.
Terry Amerine, director of product marketing at Durst Image Technology US LLC, says that direct printing to fabric profit margin opportunities are increasing. Fabric is more appealing because the creases and crinkles disappear when fabric is stretched, so “it is much cleaner, sharper and more aesthetically pleasing.”
Amerine adds that while the visual appeal is a huge part of what drives the demand for printed textiles, fabric is also lighter than vinyl and easier and cheaper to ship cross country.
“If you look at the major retailers and the number of locations they are shipping to, it is a cost savings. They are focusing on their carbon footprint, their sustainability strategy and this plays into that,” he says.
Fabric is more sustainable than PVC. In the trade show industry, fabric banners can be folded up and reused, and they also can easily be cleaned.
“When you look at the aesthetics, freight savings and the durability … it is a better choice. It has a lot of advantages to it over a PVC banner,” Amerine says.
The home goods market has become a big buyer of printed textiles. Many companies are purchasing printed textile wall coverings and draperies. Backlit signs are also in huge demand.
In the past, most fabrics used a dye sublimation process, which is a little more complicated than printing directly onto fabric. With direct to fabric printing, the fabric is pretreated so that it will accept the dyes. In dye sublimation, there is an additional step that involves transfer paper.
Direct to fabric printing is cheaper because it eliminates the need for transfer paper, which speeds up the entire printing process. Printers also use water-based inks, which are more environmentally friendly.
Durst produces all kinds of wide-format fabric printers. Its Rhotek series 322 are inkjet printers that are great for industrial soft signage applications. Durst’s Alpha series printers are multi-pass inkjet printers designed for the home textiles and fashion industries. The Alpha 330 is a massive unit that can print 11,000 square feet of fabric an hour and is in high demand in the home goods market. The Alpha 180 TR is a dye-sublimation printer for polyester and polyester blends that can | [

The Perfect Fit
Forget about settling for a fit that’s just “good enough.” We analyzed every aspect of female cranial anatomy to create a fit specifically for women. Capably suited for any sport, it achieves a geometry that fits right, feels right and stays in place.
Two sizes of interchangeable nosepieces come with every frame, adapting for the perfect fit. Enduring® is functionally optimized with our renowned frame technologies, including components made of Unobtanium, a supple synthetic that increases grip with perspiration.
The Best Vision in Sports
Enduring® allows female athletes to focus intently on their purpose — taking achievement to new heights. The same way we revolutionize performance sight.
Oakley Hydrophobic™ is a lens coating that prevents water from leaving streaks and sheens, which can compromise vision. Whether it’s rain, sweat or splashing runoff, H2O can’t get a foothold. And that’s just half the story.
Skin oils, fingerprints and lotions are easily wiped away without leaving a residue, eliminating the haze that makes ordinary lenses a nightmare to keep clean. We even made the coating anti-static so it won’t attract dust and dirt like ordinary lenses.
High Definition Optics® (HDO®)
High Definition Optics® (HDO®) take advantage of patented innovations, like XYZ Optics® for unbeatable clarity at all angles of vision — even at the sides of lens contours that open peripheral view and optimize protection against sun, wind and side impact. HDO® lenses surpass ANSI Z87.1 standards for clarity, refraction and prism.
Enduring® features an interchangeable lens design that lets athletes optimize vision in any environment. Whenever the sun fades or flares just switch the lens and keep up with Mother Nature’s changing moods. Numerous lens options are available.
Lens Shape Options
Two different lens shapes let you choose the amount of lens coverage. You can even get lenses with venting for a cooling flow of air. Whatever your choice, the semi-rimless design ensures there’s no frame rim to block downward view.
Performance Lens Colors
Our high-contrast colors optimize depth perception, and our neutral transmission colors offer truer color perception. Choose Iridium® lens coatings to reduce glare and get the best vision in bright sun. For the ultimate in glare-cutting performance, get lenses with Oakley polarization. We make them with a process that eliminates the haze and distortion found in ordinary polarized lenses.
Enduring® Lens (Prescription)
Enduring® can be fitted with Rx implants. These ophthalmic lenses are integrated into the single-lens shields to provide corrective optics, custom ground for your prescription. | [

Description - Character as Form by Aaron Kunin
What if the Renaissance had the right idea about character? Most readers today think that characters are individuals. Poets of the Renaissance understood characters as types. They thought the job of a character was to collect every example of a kind, in the same way that an entry in a dictionary collects definitions of a word.
Character as Form celebrates the old meaning of character. The advantage of the old meaning is that it allows for generalization. Characters funnel whole societies of beings into shapes that are compact, elegant, and portable.
This book tests the old meaning of character against modern examples from poems, novels, comics, and performances in theater and film by Shakespeare, Moliere, Austen, the Marx Brothers, Raul Ruiz, Denton Welch, and Lynda Barry. The heart of the book is the character of the misanthrope, who, in Shakespeare's phrase, "banishes the world."

The Government must provide local authorities with the support and funding needed to make cycling and walking a priority in their areas, a new report says.
The Transport Committee report, published on 23 July, describes the impact of active travel on climate change, air pollution and traffic congestion as ‘huge’.
It calls on the Government to show ‘leadership and ambition’ – revising and increasing its current targets for cycling and walking.
The report also recommends a dedicated funding stream for delivering improvements which will increase levels of walking and cycling.
Lilian Greenwood MP, chair of the Transport Committee, said: “The Government must stand up for active travel. It must show real leadership by setting ambitious targets for cycling – and especially walking.
“It must give local authorities the support and funding they need to engage the public and make active travel a priority in their areas.
“It must do whatever is necessary to persuade more people to get on their bike.”
Action ‘urgently needed’
Responding to the report, an active travel alliance is urging the Government to seriously commit to funding significant improvements in active travel.
The Walking and Cycling Alliance (WACA) says cycling and walking have a pivotal part to play in reducing pollution.
Speaking on behalf of WACA, Paul Tuohy, chief executive of Cycling UK, said: “Investing in safe, convenient and attractive conditions for cycling and walking is a hugely cost-effective way to deliver a wide range of benefits.
“We commend MPs from the select committee for their diligence in understanding the urgency of this issue.”
WACA was established in 2018 and is made-up of six organisations: British Cycling, Cycling UK, Living Streets, Sustrans, The Bicycle Association and The Ramblers. | [

Lawmakers OK grace period for late license registration
Illinois lawmakers have voted to require extra time for motorists to renew license plates if state officials don't notify them.
The House voted unanimously Thursday to require a 30-day grace period after expiration if a motorist was not notified of the impending deadline by mail. The Senate voted 59-0 on the legislation in May.
The long-running state budget stalemate created an unexpected windfall for state coffers. Secretary of State Jesse White stopped mailing notices of license expirations last fall to save $450,000 in monthly postage.
The state collected more than $9 million in fines on more than 475,000 late registrations - more than double the total a year earlier.
The legislation has not been sent to Gov. Bruce Rauner.
The bill is HB4334. | [

This spring’s string of bear sightings in Montgomery County continues, with a black bear making an appearance Tuesday morning in Rockville. “Seasonal movement” is to blame, according to the Maryland Department of Natural Resources.
The bear was seen several times around 6 a.m. in the area of West Kersey Lane, Sunrise Drive and Bent Pine Court, according to the Rockville City Police Department. At least one picture showed the bear relaxing in a tree.
The Rockville City Police Department advises residents to stay alert, remain calm and not to approach, feed or attempt to capture the bear. To make their homes less attractive to bears, residents should secure food, garbage and recycling; remove bird feeders; and never leave pet food outdoors, the department recommends on its Facebook page.
The agency announced in a recent tweet that it was working with the state Department of Natural Resources to alert residents of more sightings. Residents should immediately call 240-314-8900 if they see the bear, officials advise.
Tuesday’s sighting is one of many black bear sightings in the county in April and May. One was spotted in Kensington eating trash on April 27 and 28, one appeared in Rockville on May 5 and one was trapped and relocated in Rockville on May 8. It’s unclear if the sightings were of the same bear or multiple bears.
According to the Maryland Department of Natural Resources, “It is not uncommon to see black bears in the central part of the state (Baltimore County, Harford County, Montgomery County, etc.) due to seasonal movement.” Additionally, the Department of Natural Resources urges people not to panic, saying that “most bears fear people and will leave when they see you.”

Visit to find out if any sex offenders are living near you in Tunica County.
Make sure that you read and acknowledge the disclaimer provided. Bear in mind that not all offenders follow the registration law. As such, you may get search results showing last known addresses of offenders or even incomplete ones such as just the block where the offender is located.
Bail and Bondsman
The “deposit” of money required by the court before granting temporary release to a defendant awaiting trial is called bail. This is part of the court’s way of guaranteeing that the defendant will return to court once the trial begins. If he/she violates the conditions of his bail, then the money is forfeited.
If the defendant cannot come up with the money to pay the bail, he or she can secure the services of a bondsman. The fee is usually 10% of the bail amount and this is not refundable. When hired, a bondsman can sign the bond on the defendant’s behalf, securing his release. If the defendant misses a court appearance, it will be the bondsman who will be responsible for paying the entire bond.

New tools predict monoethylene glycol injection rate for natural gas hydrate inhibition
Kamari, A, Bahadori, A, Mohammadi, AH & Zendehboudi, S 2015, 'New tools predict monoethylene glycol injection rate for natural gas hydrate inhibition', Journal of Loss Prevention in the Process Industries, vol. 33, pp. 222-231.
Published version available from:
In the oil and gas production operations, hydrates deposition leads to serious problems including over pressuring, irreparable damages to production equipment, pipeline blockage, and finally resulting in production facilities shut down and even human life and the environment dangers. Hence, it is of great importance to forecast the hydrate formation conditions in order to overcome problems associated with deposition of hydrate. In this article, an effective, mathematical and predictive strategy, known as the least squares support vector machine, is employed to determine the hydrate forming conditions of sweet natural gases as well as the monoethylene glycol (MEG) flow-rate and desired depression of the gas hydrate formation temperature (DHFT). The outcome of this study reveals that the developed technique offers high predictive potential in precise estimation of this important characteristic in the gas industry. Beside the accuracy and reliability, the proposed model includes lower number of coefficients in contrast with conventional correlations/methods, implying an interesting feature to be added to the modeling simulation software packages in gas engineering. | [

Cap tip to Astros County and the reader who pointed this story out to them, Steve. According to the Jackson County Floridian, RHP Rodney Quintero has signed with the Astros. Quintero is perhaps the team's most interesting post-20th round pick from this year's draft. According to MLB Bonus Baby's Andy Seiler, the 18-year old can touch 96mph on his fastball, although it sits in the low 90s when he starts. He has some projection left in his frame, too, with the possibility for more velocity in the future. He's a very raw pitcher, reportedly struggling with command at times and lacking quality secondary offerings. He may wind up in the bullpen, where his potential plus fastball would play up. If the Astros prefer to develop him as a starter, his ceiling could range all the way up to a top of the rotation pitcher, depending on how his secondary stuff and command develops, but his floor in that role is very low. | [

Received 4 May 2016; accepted 21 June 2016; published 24 June 2016
Humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae) are found in oceans globally and annually migrating between the high-latitude polar waters for feeding and the low-latitude tropical and subtropical waters for breeding - . In the North Pacific, summer feeding aggregation of humpback whales occurs in the Bering Sea, as well as near Alaska, British Colombia, and California . Winter mating and nurturing, on the other hand, occur around the islands or continental coastlines of Mexico and the Revillagigedo Archipelago , Hawaiian Islands , and Japan and Philippines - .
Commercial whaling conducted in the North Pacific in 1960s caused a significant decrease in the population of humpback whales inhabiting this area; Johnson and Wolman (1984) reported that, from 1905 to 1960, approximately 23,000 individuals were caught in feeding and breeding areas. Rice (1978) inferred that by 1966, when the International Whaling Commission (IWC) prohibited the commercial hunting of humpback whales, the population in the North Pacific was reduced to as few as 1000 individuals. However, this population has increased in recent years and in 2008, its status was down-listed from Vulnerable to Least Concern on the Red List of threatened species produced by the International Union for Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources (IUCN).
In 1975, after commercial whaling on humpback whales was prohibited, whale watching tours begun in New England and in Hawaii , and this had been one of the fastest growing tourism products worldwide . As the whale watching industry developed, the concern over its negative impacts on the whales increased - . Previous reports indicated the whales being watched presented behavioral changes, which were confirmed by close approaches of the whale watching vessels - . Berrow (2003) suggested that, in order to reduce the impact on whales by whale watching tours and to develop sustainable whale watching management, it was essential to obtain basic information on cetaceans, including information on their breeding ecology and behaviors.
In the North Pacific, studies on breeding ecology and behavior of humpback whales had been conducted for many years in breeding areas such as Mexico, Hawaii, and Okinawa - . In all these studies, males, females, and females with a calf were observed in the breeding areas every winter. Based on whaling data, previous studies suggested that the timing of migration between feeding and breeding areas varied according to the reproductive status of the whales . In addition, certain behaviors (e.g., complex sounds emitted by males) and group types (e.g., competitive groups), considered to be related to the breeding activities of humpback whales, were only observed in breeding areas. The complex sounds emitted by male humpback whales (song) mainly in breeding areas were considered related to the male’s mating display and to the intrasexual competition among males - . Competitive groups were considered as mixed groups of females and males in which males competed for the chance to mate with group females . Nevertheless, there was no direct observation of mating or birth of humpback whales and therefore the breeding ecology of this species was still poorly understood.
In the present study, we analyzed data collected during the winter breeding season of humpback whales in Okinawan waters for 22 years (1991-2012) in order to assess the peak periods of mating and birth behaviors, contributing to the development of a sustainable whale watching plan as well as an effective species conservation plan.
2. Materials and Methods
2.1. Boat Surveys
Surveys of humpback whales occurred during the winter breeding season (January-March), off the coast of Kerama Islands (1991-2012) and Ie (2006-2012) Island in Okinawa, Japan (Figure 1). Study sites in Kerama (26˚ 03'38''N, 127˚06'25''E, 26˚24'14''N, 127˚31'10''E) and Ie (26˚33'12''N, 127˚34'22''E, 26˚48'37''N, 127˚56'11''E) Island were surveyed using small vessels (3.2 - 4.9 t) with at least two observers on board, one at the each side of the vessel.
Figure 1. Ie and Kerama Islands in Okinawa, Japan. Study areas are indicated within boxes.
2.2. Data Collection
When whales were sighted, their tail flukes were photographed for identification by comparing photos with those cataloged for whales previously identified in both study areas. Photographed individuals identified in each year that did not match the whales identified in previous years were assigned a new identification number and added to the catalogs.

Therapy for Bipolar
Bipolar disorder is a mental health condition that affects millions of people worldwide. 40% of individuals diagnosed with depression are on the bipolar spectrum. It can be characterized by extreme mood swings, including episodes of manic highs and depressive lows. Going to therapy can help individuals with bipolar disorder learn how to manage their symptoms, develop coping strategies, and improve their overall quality of life.
Bipolar disorder affects some 2 to 5 percent of Americans, but how can they combat an illness when they don’t know what they have?
Bipolar disorder symptoms and behaviors include, among others:
- Increased energy and restlessness
- Excessively euphoric mood
- Extreme irritability
- Fast thinking
- Inability to concentrate
- Difficulty sleeping
- Poor judgment
- Increased sex drive
- Abuse of drugs
- Aggressive behavior
- Denial that anything is wrong
If you can relate to any of the above symptoms or behaviors, it may be time to consider individual counseling at Family Revelations. | [

Deepika Padukone’s engagement ring is as gorgeous as her wedding. See pics
The Deepika Padukone and Ranveer Singh wedding was held at Lake Como in Italy amid much pomp and show. The newlyweds finally shared their much-awaited wedding pictures post the Sindhi ceremony at Villa del Balbianello and had everyone in awe. Looking resplendent in a Sabyasachi bridal lehenga and jewellery, Deepika made for the most beautiful bride during the second rituals held on November 15. But what caught the attention of the world besides the Sanskrit quote on her dupatta, was Deepika’s huge solitaire which could be seen standing out of the many rings the actor wore for her nuptials. Looking gorgeous on her henna-laden hands, the rectangle solitaire set in platinum has got the town talking for its mere size.
It is to be noted, Deepika’s Bajirao Mastani co-star Priyanka Chopra, who is also set to tie the knot with singer Nick Jonas, on December 2, had caught the attention of the media and her fans with the rock on her finger. The engagement ring features a cushion-cut diamond set in platinum and is estimated to be around Rs 2.1 crore. If this sounds expensive, Sonam Kapoor had flaunted around Rs 90 lakh solitaire at the Cannes Film Festival soon after her lavish wedding in May this year. On the other hand, Virat Kohli gifted his ladylove Anushka Sharma an approximately Rs 1 crore diamond ring by an Austria-based designer.
Shilpa Shetty also proudly flaunts her 20-carat, heart-shaped solitaire given by husband Raj Kundra and is estimated to be around Rs 3 crore. Asin, however, is said to have one of the most expensive engagement rings – a 20-carat solitaire with her and husband Rahul Sharma’s initials etched under the diamond and the band of the ring. It was estimated to be around Rs 6 crore. Talk about actors and their engagement rings, one can’t miss Kareena’s 5-carat platinum band worth around Rs 75 lakh and Aishwarya’s 53-carat solitaire said to cost Rs 50 lakh approximately.
While Deepika had chosen red for the Sindhi wedding, Ranveer had also chosen a red sherwani from the same designer for the D-day.

This page is a collection of miscellaneous French 65 mm (2.56") [9-pdr] guns, none of which were of much importance. As detailed information for these guns is limited, rather than creating a page for each one, I have decided to combine them into a single page.
These older guns were the next step up from the 57 mm [6-pdr] Hotchkiss guns and were used as anti-torpedo boat guns on large ships. Fired a 9.0 lbs. (4.1 kg) projectile at a muzzle velocity of 2,346 fps (715 mps). Some of these were still in service in 1939. Actual bore length was 49.2 calibers. Some were transferred to the Army for use in the Maginot Line fortifications.

Riverbank Stability Assessment during Hydro-Peak Flow Events: The Lower Osage River Case (Missouri, USA)
The fluctuation of water level downstream from dams due to hydropower flow releases can negatively affect riverbank stability. This research aims to investigate riverbank instability resulting from the outflow variation of hydropower plants, using Bagnell Dam and the lower Osage River (Missouri, USA) as the basis of analysis. The effects of the water releases from the Bagnell Dam were investigated by computing a series of safety factors in relation to outflow events for 78 cross sections along the 130-km stretch of the lower Osage River using the BSTEM algorithm integrated into the HEC-RAS model package. The results showed that the rate of change in the flow magnitude at each cross section impacts the calculated safety factor. The flow release fluctuations will change the value of the safety factor along the river over time, as the safety factor value closely follows the variation in the flow rate. Also, the results show that the cross sections closer to Bagnell Dam are subjected to be more unstable than those farther downstream of Osage River.

Biogeochemical applications of compound-specific radiocarbon analysis

Compound-specific carbon isotopic (δ13C and Δ14C) data are reported for lipid biomarkers isolated from Santa Monica Basin (SMB) and Santa Barbara Basin (SBB) surface sediments. These organic compounds represent phytoplanktonic, zooplanktonic, bacterial, archaeal, terrestrial, and fossil carbon sources. The lipids include long-chain n-alkanes, fatty acids (as FAMEs), n-alcohols, C30 mid-chain ketols and diols, sterols, hopanols, and ether-linked C4o-biphytanes of Archaea. The data show that the carbon source for most of the biomarkers is marine euphotic zone primary production or subsequent heterotrophic consumption of this biomass. Two lipid classes represent exceptions to this finding. Δ14C values for the n-alkanes are consistent with mixed fossil and contemporary terrestrial plant sources. The archaeal isoprenoid data reflect chemoautotrophic growth below the euphotic zone. The biomarker class most clearly representing marine phytoplanktonic production is the sterols. It is suggested, therefore, that the sterols could serve as paleoceanographic tracers for surface-water DIC. The isotopic data are used to construct two algebraic models. The first calculates the contributions of fossil and modem vascular plant carbon to 5MB n-alkanes. This model indicates that the Δ14C of the modern component is +235% (post-bomb) or 0% (pre-bomb). The second model uses these values to determine the origin of sedimentary TOC. The results are comparable to estimates based on other approaches and suggest that ~60% of SMB TOC is of marine origin, modern terrestrial and fossil sources contribute ~10% each, and the remaining ~20% is of unknown origin.

Abington Memorial Hospital, an acute-care teaching hospital, has always been committed to implementing information technology to enhance patient safety. One of our first patient-safety initiatives was computerized physician order entry in 2001. Throughout the years, Abington has continued to develop its clinical information system with advanced decision support functionality such as alerts and medical logic modules.
Over the past two years, our effort has been transforming siloed documentation into a patient-centered record, embracing an interdisciplinary approach, clinical documentation integrates evidence base knowledge into daily processes. Clinical practice guidelines drive interventions and education ultimately impacting patient outcomes. The clinical documentation includes the patient profile, plan of care, assessment and intervention flow sheet, education record and outcome assessment. We developed a multiphase clinical charting rollout beginning on the medical and surgical nursing units.
In the critical-care nursing areas, we were faced with a new challenge. How could we best integrate the bedside monitoring devices with our robust, clinical information system? We established a multidisciplinary project team including nursing, physicians, biomedical engineering, clinical systems, interface technologies and technical services to select and implement the device-monitoring system in conjunction with the clinical documentation rollout. After an extensive review of vendors, we selected a device monitor solution that supported the integration to physiological monitors and other devices with clinical documentation. A server accepts raw data sent from the medical devices then filters the data and generates a standardized HL7 message to our clinical information system. The project implementation spanned a six-month time frame. A critical step in the project was developing extensive test plans to simulate and validate the accuracy of the information being transferred between the systems. In addition, after an evaluation of nursing workflow, we determined it was essential to place computers at the point of care. A computer was placed in every room allowing nurses to provide and document care right at the bedside. Each computer is hosted on a remote server allowing the IT team to troubleshoot problems without ever having to enter a critically ill patients room. The total project costs were approximately $270,000. | [

The Nord Stream 1 gas pipeline operating between Germany and Russia was shut down indefinitely due to an oil leak, hours before the gas supply was expected to resume. The indefinite closure means no gas will flow through the pipeline from Russia to Europe.
The pipeline was shut down for three days of maintenance on Wednesday, which was already met with scepticism in Europe. The announcement that the pipeline will remain closed means even more trouble for European gas prices.
The oil spill was found close to the Finnish border, where gas is put under high pressure so that it can flow through the pipeline through the Baltic Sea to Germany. The pipeline will remain stationary until the problem is repaired.
In a statement on Telegram, Gazprom said representatives of Germany's Siemens have also endorsed a report on the oil spill. Technicians should only be able to carry out repairs in a specialized workshop.
- Energy crisis: Postponement of Nord Stream 1 resumption has no impact on Belgium
- Two senior German officials suspected of spying for Russia
The Russian state-owned company says it cannot fix the leak due to a lack of parts covered by international sanctions against Russia. Gazprom posted a photo of cables with brownish liquid around them on its Telegram channel to illustrate the alleged problem.
The European Commission believes that Gazprom is blocking gas supplies under “false pretexts”, spokesperson Eric Mamer said on Twitter. There is the prevailing view that Russia uses the gas supply as political leverage, as the European Union has imposed numerous sanctions against Russia over the war in Ukraine, and this would be in retaliation.
Manufacturer disagrees with closure
According to German turbine manufacturer Siemens, an oil leak in a pumping system does not have to be a reason to close the Nord Stream 1 gas pipeline.
Siemens Energy stated that “an oil leak does not affect the operation of a turbine”. In addition, any repair can be carried out on-site and “routinely”. According to the German manufacturer, there are enough other turbines available in the Russian compressor station. | [

Xi3 Brings Style and Substance to the Data Center with FreeForm dataCENT3R Project
The whole schmeer measures about four to eight feet tall depending on how many drives are installed, and the structure is seven feet wide and two feet deep.
“For decades, I.T. Administrators and Professionals have been handcuffed into a paradigm that says Data Centers have to be built a certain way,” said Jason A. Sullivan, Xi3 founder, President and CEO in a press release. “That is no longer the case. With the birth of the Xi3 Computer Architecture and our small, energy efficient computers and servers, Data Centers no longer need to fit into traditional rooms and racks.”
Xi3 also says that the dataCENT3Rs are ambient air cooled, require less physical infrastructure, allow for reduced power consumption, and offer a movable and flexible solution that allows users to place the rack virtually anywhere in an office while allowing users to organize the drives in creative ways. They also support 64-bit, x86 operating systems including Windows 8 and most Linux and Unix OSes.
It’s hard to tell if the FreeForm dataCENT3R is a brilliant innovation or the answer to a problem that didn’t need solving, but in any case, that sure is a funky-looking cluster. | [

450 HD Polyoxford
Soft, PU coated polyester fabric made of 450 denier yarn in Oxford look.
Thanks to the fine structure, this development by Tatonka is extremely technical. The very tight, special weaving method of the 210 den fibres makes the fabric extremely strong, but it remains light at the same time. Perfect for our lightweight trekking and hiking rucksacks.
Lightweight, abrasion resistant polyamide fabric with fine patterning that resembles parent snow crystals. Thanks PU coating on the inside of the material is waterproof. T-Snow Crust is used in backpacks and bags.
The X Vent Zero system offers maximum control and the best possible ventilation with minimal contact with the back. Two x-shaped fibreglass rods (1) on the back of the packsack combine with waist straps (2) to make the supporting connection of the packsack. The tightening and releasing of the system is infinitely variable, which means it can be adjusted individually. If the system is loosened completely, then the backpack can also be positioned to fit close to the back. Thanks to the consistent reduction in the use of materials, this system makes every rucksack a lightweight. | [

The building, where the Kharkiv Regional Council, the Kharkiv Regional State Administration and some departments of the Kharkiv City Council worked, became the target of two Russian Kalibr missiles on March 1.
A direct hit by missiles killed 29 people. The building is significantly damaged, the floorings were destroyed, windows and doors were knocked out.
The House of Councils is located in the historical part of the city, on the Svobody Square, and is an architectural monument. It was erected in 1954 on the site of the building of the Provincial Zemstvo, significantly rebuilt under the "Soviets" and destroyed during the Second World War. It also suffered irreparable destruction, this time from the shelling of the Russian military. | [

Guidelines for Public Demonstrations under the First Amendment
The Chandler Police Department’s mission is to provide a safe community where people can live, work, and thrive. We are dedicated to ensuring the safety, security, and constitutional rights of everyone in our community.
When we work with groups before demonstrations, our community’s safety is improved, and everyone plays a shared role in the safety effort. Our department is willing to work closely with organizers to make sure their voices are heard, their rights are not infringed upon, and the entire group remains safe as they peaceably assemble in First Amendment-related activities. We believe an ongoing dialogue helps prevent issues before they arise and deal with issues that may occur during a demonstration.
The purpose of these guidelines is to inform the public about their respective rights and responsibilities during public demonstrations.
Persons and groups engaging in First Amendment related activities have the legal right to:
- Organize and participate in peaceful assemblies, including demonstrations, rallies, parades, marches, or other similar gatherings.
- Conduct these assemblies or gatherings in a designated public area.
- Express their political, social, or religious views.
- Freely associate with other individuals and collectively express, pursue, promote, and defend common interests.
As part of our duty to uphold the United States Constitution and the Arizona Constitution, the Chandler Police Department recognizes that officers have the responsibility to protect the rights of those engaged in their First Amendment right to peaceably assemble in a law-abiding manner. Our duties and responsibilities during these demonstrations are public safety, and our officers will:
- Protect life and property. This includes enforcing all applicable criminal laws under Title 13, Arizona Revised Statutes, and the Chandler City Code.
- Protect privacy, civil rights, and civil liberties of those assembling and of the general public.
- Practice fair and impartial enforcement of laws, statutes, and ordinances.
- Communicate important messages using a PA system or through other means, such as social media.
- If necessary, due to demonstrations that may bring out people with divergent views, use barriers or other strategies to keep opposing perspectives separated to ensure everyone remains safe.
To promote public safety and open dialogue with organizers, the Chandler Police Department would like to share activities that pose a danger to the public and our officers:
- Marching on public highways, freeway, or other thoroughfares is prohibited under Arizona law and may subject persons engaging in this activity to arrest.
- Committing traffic violations is prohibited. Using a vehicle to impede or block the normal and reasonable traffic movement is a violation of Title 28, Arizona Revised Statutes.
- Throwing projectiles, including water bottles, rocks, signs, etc., at any person or officer is prohibited under Arizona law, and persons engaging in this activity may be subject to arrest.
- Interfering with or obstructing officers attempting to arrest persons involved in criminal activity is dangerous to officers and other publicly demonstrating persons. If a criminal offense has occurred, officers will work to identify those involved in the illegal activity for arrest. They will also work to secure the scene to minimize further criminal activity that would threaten an individual or safety of a property.
- In the case of injury, fire, or medical emergency, the Fire Department must access an area to render aid. The Chandler Police Department will take all necessary and lawful measures to ensure that can happen.
- If an Unlawful Assembly is declared by police, everyone must leave. Lawful demonstrators will be given a reasonable amount of time to follow the dispersal order, including vacating private property, roadways, and sidewalks in the immediate area. | [

Last week we saw some real carnage in the gold and silver markets. In two days, April 12 and April 15, we saw the price of gold fall over $200 and many in the financial media came out of the woodwork saying the gold bull was over. Since that time we have had a move off the low of $1,322 reached April 15th to the current price of just over $1,470, a nice $140+ pop back up in price. Silver yesterday was up more than $1.30 to $24.24 This leaves investors wanting to know, have we hit bottom in gold and silver and will this be the 13th year straight of higher gold prices or will we continue the pattern of lower lows?
In September 2011, the dollar hit a low of 74.14 as seen in the following chart. Below that you will see the chart as to where the dollar is today, 4/25/13, currently sitting just below 83 on the index.
From November 2011 to today you can read my comments about the gold and silver markets in an article I wrote Monday; Gold and Silver Doom and Gloom or Crack Up Boom?
Some highlights from the article;
“I believe we get one more push down in gold and silver.” “Gold is still in its second and longest phase. The professionals will still try and buck you off the gold and silver bull.” “Market Makers love to move markets they can control.” “I fully expect over the next few months the Market Makers to test and break the 200 day moving averages lower.

MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) A man charged with killing a Memphis officer during a chaotic raid on his home in December 2012 didn’t know he was shooting at police, a defense lawyer said Tuesday as the man’s trial opened.
Treveno Campbell, 25, has pleaded not guilty to charges of killing Memphis Police Officer Martoiya Lang and attempting to kill five other officers. Lang, a 32-year-old mother of four, was one of four Memphis officers killed since July 2011 and Memphis’ first female officer slain in the line of duty.
Police said Organized Crime Unit officers armed with a warrant and wearing protective vests entered a home where drug trafficking was suspected on Dec. 14, 2012. According to police, Campbell opened fire with a 9mm pistol with a high-capacity magazine, striking Lang and another officer who survived, police said. Campbell was shot during the raid.
In Tuesday’s opening statements, defense lawyer William Massey said Campbell was asleep in bed after coming home tired from his job the day of the raid. “All of a sudden, he heard a crashing noise. Boom!” Massey told a jury of 12 and two alternates.
With his heart “beating out of his chest,” Campbell began shooting wildly, thinking his home was being invaded by people who were not police, Massey added.
Campbell fired shots in an attempt to scare off the intruders before he realized it was police who had bashed in the front door, according to Massey. He showed jurors a heavy police battering ram.
Campbell stopped firing and put his hands up when he realized he was shooting at police, Massey said. That’s when an officer shot Campbell three times, the lawyer said.
“The issue is if Treveno Campbell knew they were police,” Massey said. “He thought he was the victim of a home invasion.”
Massey alleged that officers were looking for a person who did not end up matching Campbell’s description.
In her opening statement, prosecutor Alanda Dwyer addressed jurors while wearing a black protective vest marked “police.” Dwyer said officers knocked before entering the home and they loudly identified themselves as police.
Campbell fired 11 shots at officers during the raid, “firing wildly down the hall where the officers were,” Dwyer said.
Dwyer described Campbell as someone who was obsessed with drugs and money.
Campbell faces charges of possessing drugs with the intent to sell, in addition to charges of first-degree murder in Lang’s death, attempted murder of the other five officers and using a firearm while committing a felony. Police said they found marijuana, a gun and cash in the house.
Judge James Beasley has issued a gag order in the case. He ordered lawyers, witnesses and law enforcement officials to refrain from speaking to media representatives or making comments on social media about the case.
Memphis police have said two officers involved in the investigation of Lang’s shooting were relieved of duty as the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation looked into their conduct. | [

We believe the purity and performance of the product matter. That’s why we take the time to double filter our smart toxin with a proprietary XTRACT Technology™ process.
The unique formula removes unnecessary proteins so the active ingredient contains only what is needed to smooth frown lines, treatment after treatment. Time is on your side, and so are we.
Frown lines form when facial expressions are made as the muscle under the skin contracts. Over time, as your skin ages, these repeated expressions cause lasting frown lines. Neurotoxins, such as Xeomin®, are prescription medications that block the release of chemicals that cause these muscle contractions so frown lines are softened.
Xeomin® is made through a unique precision manufacturing process called XTRACT Technology™, that uses two filtration steps to isolate the therapeutic component of the molecule and removes the complexing/unnecessary proteins that don’t play an active role in treatment. Xeomin® is a double filtered neurotoxin. Head-to-head studies evaluating the relative risk of immunogenicity due to the presence or absence of complexing/unnecessary proteins have not been performed.
Xeomin® (incobotulinumtoxinA) is a prescription medication injected into muscles and used to temporarily improve the appearance of moderate to severe frown lines between the eyebrows (glabellar lines) in adults. Xeomin® contains botulinum toxin type A, a protein purified from the bacterium Clostridium botulinum.
When you squint or frown, the muscles between your eyebrows contract, causing the skin to furrow and fold. Over time, as your skin ages and loses some of its elasticity, these repeated contractions can cause persistent frown lines. Botulinum toxin type A – the active ingredient in Xeomin®– acts on nerve endings in muscles to prevent muscle fibers from contracting. By reducing these contractions, Xeomin® can temporarily reduce the lines between your eyebrows.
Xeomin® was proven effective in two randomized, double-blind, multicenter, placebo-controlled clinical trials of 547 healthy, adult patients. The average age of patients in the study was 46 years. Patients received 20 Units of Xeomin® and were classified as responders if they had a 2-grade improvement on a 4-point scale as assessed by the physician and patient. Using these criteria, treatment success was higher with Xeomin® than placebo on Day 30 in both studies (60% and 48% vs. 0% for placebo in both studies). Based on these trials, Xeomin® received FDA approval for use in glabellar lines in 2011.
During treatment, which usually takes about 10-20 minutes, Dr. Samuels or an associate will inject Xeomin® into the muscles in your forehead that cause frown lines between your eyebrows. No anesthesia is required; however, we may use a topical anesthetic or cold pack to reduce any discomfort.
If you are an adult with moderate to severe glabellar lines, Xeomin® may be right for you. Talk to Dr. Samuels to discuss the benefits and risks of treatment. Do not use Xeomin® if you are allergic to botulinum toxin or any of the other ingredients in Xeomin®. You should also not use Xeomin® if you have had an allergic reaction to any other botulinum toxin product or have a skin infection at the planned injection site.
You may begin to see visible smoothing as early as 3-4 days after injection. The median first onset of effect was less than a week. The maximum effect occurred at 30 days. The typical duration of effect was up to 3 months in clinical trials but may last significantly longer or shorter in individual patients.
Xeomin® may cause serious side effects, including allergic reactions. Symptoms of an allergic reaction to Xeomin® may include: itching, rash, redness, swelling, wheezing, asthma symptoms, or dizziness or feeling faint. Contact Dr. Samuel’s office or seek medical help right away if you have wheezing, experience other asthma symptoms, or if you become dizzy or faint.In clinical trials of Xeomin® for the treatment of frown lines between the eyebrows, headache was the most common side effect. Xeomin® may cause loss of strength or general muscle weakness, blurred vision, or drooping eyelids within hours to weeks of taking Xeomin®. If this happens, do not drive a car, operate machinery, or do other dangerous activities. Tell Dr. Samuels if you have any side effect that bothers you or that does not subside. These are not all of the possible side effects of Xeomin®. Please ask Dr. Samuels for more information.
For more information about Xeomin or to see if you’re a good candidate for this procedure, schedule a consultation with Dr. Samu | [

A major intersection in Estonia's second city, Tartu, has seen 127 traffic accidents in the past year, causing insurance claims of around €190,000 according to statistics, making it the junction with the highest rate of accidents in the country, for the third year in a row.
The junction of Riia mnt and Ringtee roads, at the Lõunakeskus shopping mall in the city's southwestern approaches, has been earmarked for reconstruction in the next year or so, but this has been put back to 2024 at present. The junction's inability to cope with the volumes of traffic it experiences has been highlighted as one factor in the rate of accidents, slightly higher than at any intersection in the capital, Tallinn.
The emergency situation and consequent reduction in traffic does not seem to have diminished the accident rate at the junction, with 13 accident insurance cases in March, the same figure as last year, head of the Estonian Motor Insurance Bureau (LKF) loss adjuster's department Ülli Reimets said.
Around a fifth of accidents at the junction last year were fault collisions with another moving vehicle, ERR reports, and 63 percent were rear-end collisions, and the statistics suggest that the intersection cannot cope with the traffic volume.
"The high proportion of both rear-end collisions and faults indicates that there are capacity problems at the intersection. On average, Estonian intersections saw 47 percent of its accidents as rear-end collisions last year, 17 per cent were other collisions with other drivers and 16 per cent were accidents in traffic queues," Reimets went on.
The city of Tartu has submitted a request to the Ministry of Economic Affairs and Communications that the Riga roundabout be reinstated on the list of objects to be financed in the state road management plan for 2021.
The construction of a section of the Tartu western bypass of the Tallinn-Tartu-Luhamaa road was planned for the 2020-2021, the city government says, but when the state government approved its new road management plan for 2020-2030 in January this year, the construction was postponed to 2024-2025.
Reconstruction is likely to cost €22 million, according to ERR.
Accident rate comparisons
Over 120 accidents have happened at the Tammsaare-Rahumäe-Tondi junction south of Tallinn city center in the past year, costing around €180,000 in insurance claims.
Other accident-prone intersections in the capital include the nearby Delta Plaza traffic junction, the Tammsaare tee – Sõpruse puiestee intersection in Mustamäe, the Ülemiste and Sikupilli junction near the airport, the Endla – Luise –Tehnika junction in the city center, the Akadeemia roundabout in Mustamäe and the Viru junction in the city center.
Outside of the two largest cities in Estonia, the highest figure of accidents was recorded at a roundabout in the town of Jüri, about 15 kilometers southeast of Tallinn, with 75 in the past year.

The climb to the Ofenpass (Pass dal Fuorn in Rhaeto-Romance)
from Santa Maria takes place in the Münstertal (Val Müstair).
In this valley 60-80% of the population speaks
the fourth language of Switzerland.
After a quiet start of one and a half kilometers
there is a steep (9%) ramp in the village of Valchava.
Over the next three kilometers it goes uphill
but the road is gradually getting less steep.
Then four easy kilometers follow.
However, on passing the village of Tschierv climbing becomes a serious matter
and that does not change in the remaining five kilometers
to the pass.
The slope is with large (Swiss?) constancy 9-10%,
except for a less steep passage about a kilometer before the finish.
Unfortunately, the traffic is quite strong.
The broad valley is beautiful but not overwhelming.
The ascent can be extended with the stretch from Glurns (Glorienza)
in Italy to Santa Maria.
This brings another 14.4 kilometers, 474 meters of altitude and
climb effort points. | [

A professional psychotherapist just posted a video on YouTube in which she analyzed Amber Heard’s personality, calling her a ‘narcissistic liar’.
Some fundamental traits of the personality narcissist which has been attributed to Amber Heard have recently been analyzed by a psychotherapist Pro: Through a video posted on her YouTube channel called Rise Beyond Abuse, Angelica spoke extensively about how prone the Aquaman star is to lie.
“What I saw during this study are the symptoms of Narcissistic Personality Disorder. I agree with the diagnosis of borderline personality disorder“, began the psychotherapist.”He said he will stand his testimony until he dies. Of course, narcissists lie. What is the narcissist’s motto? You lie until you die. “
“It has been his way of life from an early age. One of his defense mechanisms is lying. She became what she became through emotional and physical abuse“explained the doctor.”Lying is part of his nature, it is a way of life. The whole process was a big lie on his part. Many of us, true survivors of domestic violence, agree on this“.
Amber Heard owes ex-husband Johnny Depp $ 8 million after losing the libel case: The jury decided that with the publication of her 2018 editorial on domestic violence, the actress defamed the Caribbean pirate star. | [

TUESDAY, JULY 10TH, 2012
The Seminole County Board of Commissioners held their Regular Monthly Meeting on Tuesday, July 10th, 2012 in the Superior Courtroom located on the second floor of the courthouse. Those present were Chairman Dell Shingler, Vice Chairman Roger Lane, Commissioner Brenda Peterson, Commissioner Darius Culverson, Commissioner Scott Miller and County Manager/Clerk Paula Granger.
The meeting was called to order by Vice Chairman Roger Lane.
The invocation was offered by EMS Director Toby Roland followed by the Pledge of Allegiance.

Mr. Arthur Jones requested use of the Rambeau Gym for a fund raising event for the Seminole County Training School Class Reunion for one day in July. Commissioner Shingler and Vice Chairman Lane both stated the gym was under the direction of the Recreation Committee. Mr. Herman Brookins responded to the request and provided some insight on the gym and the recent Rec Committee decision to close the gym. The lack of supervision at the gym is a big concern, as well as unreported damage to the facility, fighting, bathrooms left in deplorable condition, lights left on, and distribution of keys to the building. Mr. Brookins stated the Rec Committee voted unanimously to only operate the gym during basketball season for recreational basketball. Vice Chairman Lane informed Mr. Jones his request was denied.
Commissioner Peterson asked if a waiver could be signed, however, attorney Mills indicated waivers do not exonerate liability. Commissioner Culverson asked Mr. Jones the purpose of wanting the gym, he stated it would be a one day tournament. Mr. Jones requested the board reconsider use of the gym by private citizens. Following the discussion, Vice Chairman Lane requested the commissioners make a motion to overrule or uphold the decision of the Rec Committee. The board was unwilling to make a decision, the item was tabled.
Ms. Shelia Freeman of Spring Creek Health Cooperative addressed the board regarding continuation of services being provided to Seminole County. The proposal stated a two day work week would cost $1,548.71 per month. An analysis of medication used at the jail will be conducted to determine if this could also be included with the services of SCHC. On a motion by Commissioner Culverson and a second by Commissioner Peterson, the board agreed to pay ˝ of the monthly cost ($774.36) pending an agreement with Donalsonville Hospital to provide funding for the other ˝ of the cost. All in favor, motion passed.
Mr. Lindsey Register addressed the board regarding a land bank for Seminole County Training School. Commissioner Shingler made a motion to advertise the school for sale, motion failed due to lack of a second. Commissioner Peterson made a motion for County Manager Granger to research establishing a land bank for the Seminole County Training School and a second was provided by Commissioner Miller. All in favor, motion carried.
County Attorney Report
County Attorney Bill Mills discussed his status report with the Commissioners. Mr. Mills notified the board the Donalsonville News failed to publish the required notice for the Road Naming Ordinance, therefore, no action was taken on this item. The notice will need to be published twice prior to the meeting in August.
LOST distribution of proceeds has been finalized with the cities of Donalsonville and Iron City. Donalsonville Mayor Joe Burke stated the city council voted during their July meeting in favor of keeping their distribution at the current level of 33%. Vice Chairman Lane stated the city council of Iron City had also voted in favor of keeping their current distribution of 4% in place, Iron City Mayor Ronnie Ingram stated Mr. Lane was correct. The county portion of LOST proceeds is 63%.
County Manager Granger informed the board that repair costs from lightning damage at the Transfer Station totals approximately $40,000. Also included in | [

By completion of this tunnel, it will connect the Black Sea region to the Mediterranean Sea via Sivas city and will create significant advantages in this area.
Geminbeli tunnel will enter service in 2021
The governor of Sivas city, Salih Ayhan, visited tunnel construction site and get information from the 16th district director, Adlan Aslan, and technical staff about the work stages and the latest developments related to the Geminbeli Tunnel, which is still under construction.
The Governor Salih Ayhan also made statements about the project and said:
“We can see the advanced stages have our economy reached and the quality of services provided by our country.
The Geminbeli tunnel length is 8,600 meters, and it costs one billion TL. We strive to put this tunnel into service as soon as possible.
Sivas is one of the most fortunate Turkish provinces in terms of highway investments.
This tunnel is a too large project which connects northern Turkey with its south.
It is also very important to connect the Mediterranean with the Black Sea coasts.”

Modeling Automata with Classical Mechanics
A model of a moving mechanical device known as automata is carried out with an analytically solved system of differential equations. The system of equations used is that of two masses coupled through a spring. The system is solved by considering a center of mass - relative coordinate approach. Once a solution of the relative coordinate is effected, each mass's coordinate is obtained as a function of time. To model the automata one has to keep in mind that the spring must have an equilibrium length so as to mimic movement and to prevent the masses from overlapping. The masses in this model take the place of the automata's head and tail, respectively. Once initial conditions are provided, the masses' positions versus time are animated so as to simulate the automata's motion.

Reinforcement learning (RL) is a type of machine learning where an agent learns to make decisions by interacting with its environment. The agent receives feedback in the form of rewards or penalties, and uses this feedback to improve its decision-making over time.
In RL, an agent interacts with an environment, which is defined by a set of states, actions, and a reward function. The agent observes the current state of the environment and selects an action to perform. The environment then transitions to a new state and the agent receives a reward or penalty based on the new state and the action taken.
The goal of the agent is to learn a policy, which is a mapping from states to actions, that maximizes the expected cumulative reward over time. This process is often modeled as a Markov Decision Process (MDP), where the agent's policy and the environment's dynamics are both uncertain.
There are several algorithms used to solve RL problems, including value-based methods and policy-based methods. Value-based methods, such as Q-learning, learn the value of each state-action pair and select actions that maximize this value. Policy-based methods, such as REINFORCE, directly learn the policy and update it based on the observed rewards.
Recent advances in deep learning have led to the development of deep reinforcement learning (DRL), where neural networks are used to approximate the value function or policy. DRL has been successfully applied to a wide range of problems, including gaming, robotics, and autonomous vehicles.
Process of Reinforcement learning
The process of reinforcement learning (RL) can be broken down into several steps in a very detail way:
Initialization: The agent and the environment are initialized, and the agent's policy and value functions are initialized to some initial values. The agent's policy is a function that maps states to actions, and the value function is a function that estimates the expected cumulative reward from a given state or state-action pair. The initialization process can be done in various ways, such as randomly initializing the policy and value functions or using a pre-trained model.
Observation: The agent observes the current state of the environment. The state can be represented in various ways, such as a vector of features, an image, or a set of sensor readings. The agent's observations of the environment are used to update its internal representations of the state.
Selection of action: The agent selects an action to perform based on its current policy. The agent can select the action based on its current knowledge of the environment, or it can explore new actions to learn more about the environment. The selection of actions can be done in various ways, such as using a greedy algorithm, which selects the action that maximizes the current value function, or using a stochastic algorithm, which selects actions based on a probability distribution.
Execution of action: The agent executes the selected action, and the environment transitions to a new state. The transition function, which defines how the environment changes based on the agent's actions, can be deterministic or stochastic. The execution of the action can also have a cost associated with it, such as energy consumption or time.
Observation of reward: The agent observes the reward or penalty associated with the new state and the action taken. The reward signal can be provided by the environment, such as a score in a game, or it can be defined by the agent's objectives, such as reaching a specific location.
Updating the policy: The agent updates its policy and value functions based on the observed reward and the new state. This process is known as the learning step. There are many ways to update the policy and value function, such as using Q-learning, SARSA, or actor-critic algorithms.
Return to step 2: The agent continues this process of observing, selecting, executing, and updating, until it reaches a stopping criterion. The stopping criterion can be defined in various ways, such as reaching a maximum number of steps, achieving a certain level of performance, or reaching a terminal state.
Evaluation: Once the agent has learned a policy, it can be evaluated by running it on new instances of the environment. The evaluation process can be done in various ways, such as measuring the agent's performance on a set of test cases, comparing the agent's performance to a pre-trained model, or visualizing the agent's behavior.
One of the key challenges in RL is the trade-off between exploration and exploitation. The agent must balance the need to explore new actions to learn more about the environment with the need to exploit its current knowledge to maximize the reward. Exploration can be done in various ways, such as using an epsilon-greedy algorithm, which selects a random action with a small probability, or using a Boltzmann exploration, which selects actions based on their relative value.
Another challenge is dealing with large or continuous state spaces, which can be tackled by using function approximation such as neural network. Function approximation can be used to estimate the value function or policy, and | [

I have a Flip camera and recorded a bunch of my rides. Someone listening to the video asked if I was riding a lawnmower. He was commenting on the gear whine which is (in my opinion) noticeable. I live with it.
I get a little whine at certain speeds. Probably the most noticeable is at really slow speeds in 1st gear, like in a parking lot. Sounds more like final drive noise than transmission. Also hear some whine at around 60 mph that goes away by 70 mph.
'03 SS here and yes, it appears to be pretty normal. I've heard some refer to the bike as the "Singer" after the sewing machine. I've also been told that the noise can be altered by what kind of oil one uses, which there seems to be some truth to because, when my bro first bought his '06 Vulcan Classic 800 it didn't whine at all but, after an oil change it did have a very slight whine to it on acceleration.
I've sure never noticed it in an 07 c2. Even with quiet stock exhaust I just changed out my final drive oil with synth, but didn't notice it before either. Have you checked the level of oil in the final?
Many thanks for your helpful responses. I'm running 10w40 Havoline motorcycle oil in the crankcase, and will try Honda 10w30 to see if it makes a difference in the gear whine level. Will get back to you with the results.
I too hear a whine and i was wondering where it was coming from. i have an 08 750 c2. it is a high pitched sound,sounds like it is coming from the front of the bike. it shifts and rides fine was just wanting to know if this is what you are talking about?
revrat6, Yes, that's exactly what I'm talking about. Today I drained the Havoline 10w40 from the crankcase and refilled it with 10w40 Mobil 1 4T Synthetic Racing
oil. During a test ride there was no notable change in the level of gear whine. Evidently, the gear whine is a characteristic of 07-09 750 Spirits. | [

Substance use disorders in refugee and migrant groups in Sweden: A nationwide cohort study of 1.2 million people
Peer reviewed, Journal article
MetadataShow full item record
Original versionPLOS Medicine. 2019, 16 (11), e1002944. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pmed.1002944
Background: Refugees are at higher risk of some psychiatric disorders, including post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and psychosis, compared with other non-refugee migrants and the majority population. However, it is unclear whether this also applies to substance use disorders, which we investigated in a national register cohort study in Sweden. We also investigated whether risk varied by region of origin, age at migration, time in Sweden, and diagnosis of PTSD. Methods and findings: Using linked Swedish register data, we followed a cohort born between 1984 and 1997 from their 14th birthday or arrival in Sweden, if later, until an International Classification of Diseases, 10th revision (ICD-10), diagnosis of substance use disorder (codes F10.X–19.X), emigration, death, or end of follow-up (31 December 2016). Refugee and non-refugee migrants were restricted to those from regions with at least 1,000 refugees in the Swedish registers. We used Cox proportional hazards regression to estimate unadjusted and adjusted hazard ratios (aHRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) in refugee and non-refugee migrants, compared with Swedish-born individuals, for all substance use disorders (F10.X–19.X), alcohol use disorders (F10.X), cannabis use disorders (F12.X), and polydrug use disorders (F19.X). In adjusted analyses, we controlled for age, sex, birth year, family income, family employment status, population density, and PTSD diagnosis. Our sample of 1,241,901 participants included 17,783 (1.4%) refugee and 104,250 (8.4%) non-refugee migrants. Refugees' regions of origin were represented in proportions ranging from 6.0% (Eastern Europe and Russia) to 41.4% (Middle East and North Africa); proportions of non-refugee migrants' regions of origin ranged from 11.8% (sub-Saharan Africa) to 33.7% (Middle East and North Africa). These groups were more economically disadvantaged at cohort entry (p < 0.001) than the Swedish-born population. Refugee (aHR: 0.52; 95% CI 0.46–0.60) and non-refugee (aHR: 0.46; 95% CI 0.43–0.49) migrants had similarly lower rates of all substance use disorders compared with Swedish-born individuals (crude incidence: 290.2 cases per 100,000 person-years; 95% CI 287.3–293.1). Rates of substance use disorders in migrants converged to the Swedish-born rate over time, indicated by both earlier age at migration and longer time in Sweden. We observed similar patterns for alcohol and polydrug use disorders, separately, although differences in cannabis use were less marked; findings did not differ substantially by migrants’ region of origin. Finally, while a PTSD diagnosis was over 5 times more common in refugees than the Swedish-born population, it was more strongly associated with increased rates of substance use disorders in the Swedish-born population (aHR: 7.36; 95% CI 6.79–7.96) than non-refugee migrants (HR: 4.88; 95% CI 3.71–6.41; likelihood ratio test [LRT]: p = 0.01). The main limitations of our study were possible non-differential or differential under-ascertainment (by migrant status) of those only seen via primary care and that our findings may not generalize to undocumented migrants, who were not part of this study. Conclusions: Our findings suggest that lower rates of substance use disorders in migrants and refugees may reflect prevalent behaviors with respect to substance use in migrants’ countries of origin, although this effect appeared to diminish over time in Sweden, with rates converging towards the substantial burden of substance use morbidity we observed in the Swedish-born population. | [

Folkestone Gardens were created in the 1970s on the site of war-damaged housing, and is overlooked and completely surrounded by railway lines. The Grand Surrey Canal used to run past the northern end of the park from Camberwell to the Surrey Docks; it was filled in in 1972, having closed the previous year. On undulating ground, the park has grass, woodland areas, a belt of Lombardy poplars along the edge, and a group of sycamores in the centre. In the north-west is a large pond with an island with weeping willow. When it was restored in 1994, some of the pond-side plants were taken from the surplus at Hare and Billet Pond on Blackheath. The park supports a surprising diversity of plants and animals considering its size and location.

By the early C20th the area was heavily built up with housing, many occupied by railway employees and their families. In 1945 the area was badly bombed, destroying many houses and causing 52 deaths. In the late 1960s/early 1970s the houses were cleared and the park was laid out, named after one of the demolished streets.

Among the objects studied are the Sun, other stars, galaxies, extrasolar planets, the interstellar medium and the cosmic microwave background. Because astrophysics is a very broad subject, astrophysicists apply concepts and methods from many disciplines of physics, including classical mechanics, electromagnetism, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, quantum mechanics, relativity, nuclear and particle physics, and atomic and molecular physics. In practice, modern astronomical research often involves a substantial amount of work in the realms of theoretical and observational physics. Topics also studied by theoretical astrophysicists include Solar System formation and evolution; stellar dynamics and evolution; galaxy formation and evolution; magnetohydrodynamics; large-scale structure of matter in the universe; origin of cosmic rays; general relativity and physical cosmology, including string cosmology and astroparticle physics.
Astronomy is an ancient science, long separated from the study of terrestrial physics. For much of the nineteenth century, astronomical research was focused on the routine work of measuring the positions and computing the motions of astronomical objects. By 1860 the physicist, Gustav Kirchhoff, and the chemist, Robert Bunsen, had demonstrated that the dark lines in the solar spectrum corresponded to bright lines in the spectra of known gases, specific lines corresponding to unique chemical elements. Kirchhoff deduced that the dark lines in the solar spectrum are caused by absorption by chemical elements in the Solar atmosphere. In this way it was proved that the chemical elements found in the Sun and stars were also found on Earth. Among those who extended the study of solar and stellar spectra was Norman Lockyer, who in 1868 detected radiant, as well as dark, lines in solar spectra. Around 1920, following the discovery of the Hertzsprung–Russell diagram still used as the basis for classifying stars and their evolution, Arthur Eddington anticipated the discovery and mechanism of nuclear fusion processes in stars, in his paper By the end of the 20th century, studies of astronomical spectra had expanded to cover wavelengths extending from radio waves through optical, x-ray, and gamma wavelengths. In the 21st century it further expanded to include observations based on gravitational waves.
Observational astronomy is a division of the astronomical science that is concerned with recording data, in contrast with theoretical astrophysics, which is mainly concerned with finding out the measurable implications of physical models. It is the practice of observing celestial objects by using telescopes and other astronomical apparatus. Radio astronomy studies radiation with a wavelength greater than a few millimeters. Example areas of study are radio waves, usually emitted by cold objects such as interstellar gas and dust clouds; the cosmic microwave background radiation which is the redshifted light from the Big Bang; pulsars, which were first detected at microwave frequencies. The study of these waves requires very large radio telescopes. Infrared astronomy studies radiation with a wavelength that is too long to be visible to the naked eye but is shorter than radio waves. Infrared observations are usually made with telescopes similar to the familiar optical telescopes. Objects colder than stars (such as planets) are normally studied at infrared frequencies. Optical astronomy was the earliest kind of astronomy. In this wavelength range, stars are highly visible, and many chemical spectra can be observed to study the chemical composition of stars, galaxies and nebulae. Ultraviolet, X-ray and gamma ray astronomy study very energetic processes such as binary pulsars, black holes, magnetars, and many others. Neutrino observatories have also been built, primarily to study our Sun. Cosmic rays consisting of very high energy particles can be observed hitting the Earth's atmosphere. Observations can also vary in their time scale. On the other hand, radio observations may look at events on a millisecond timescale (millisecond pulsars) or combine years of data (pulsar deceleration studies). The study of our very own Sun has a special place in observational astrophysics. Due to the tremendous distance of all other stars, the Sun can be observed in a kind of detail unparalleled by any other star. The topic of how stars change, or stellar evolution, is often modeled by placing the varieties of star types in their respective positions on the Hertzsprung–Russell diagram, which can be viewed as representing the state of a stellar object, from birth to destruction.
Theoretical astrophysicists use a wide variety of tools which include analytical models (for example, polytropes to approximate the behaviors of a star) and computational numerical simulations. Theorists in astrophysics endeavor to create theoretical models and figure out the observational consequences of those models. Theorists also try to generate or modify models to take into account new data. Topics studied by theoretical astrophysicists include stellar dynamics and evolution; galaxy formation and evolution; magnetohydrodynamics; large-scale structure of matter in the universe; origin of cosmic rays; general relativity and physical cosmology, including string cosmology and astroparticle physics. Astrophysical relativity serves as a tool to gauge the properties of large scale structures for which gravitation | [

Pilot shortage a challenge for airports across the nation
Rapid City Regional Airport held the Black Hills Air Service Summit on Wednesday, to get the community up to speed on the airline industry and to learn about some of the challenges that are impacting our local air service development.
Rapid City Regional Airport Executive Director Patrick Dame says because of strong tourism, Rapid City has fantastic air service.
He says although there has been a reduction in seats, there has been an increase in passengers on airplanes coming in and out of Rapid City.
One challenge, though, is a pilot shortage issue that Dame says is a crisis that's facing the industry overall.
Dame says, "That does cause a challenge for us going forward in the next few years here. We think that there's potential for reduction system wide and with that we are constantly working with carriers to ensure that we don't see reduction in air service."
One of the speakers, Fay Malarkey Black, the President of Regional Airline Association says the pilot shortage is one of their biggest challenges, adding that it's a contributing factor in hundreds of communities losing departures across the nation.
Black says, "We need to reduce the high barriers of entry to the career and ensure that federal regulations on pilot hiring standards are data driven and truly enhance safety and don't represent an artificially high barrier of entry to the career and we need to do everything we can to support pilots and in fact all walks of the aviation career throughout their career to encourage more to come in to the pipeline."
Black says since 2013, 309 communities across the United States have lost ten percent or more of their departures, 208 communities have lost 20 percent or more and 52 communities have lost all air service. | [

Bollywood: Shah Rukh Khan's son Aryan denied bail in drug case
The actor's son, who allegedly confessed to addiction for the past 4 years, remanded in custody until Thursday
Indian superstar Shah Rukh Khan’s son, Aryan, was sent to the custody of the Narcotics Control Bureau (NCB) till Thursday by a court in Mumbai on Monday.
The NCB had sought custody of Aryan, 23, till October 11 to ensure that it is able to trace those who financed and supplied the drugs.
NCB sources told media persons that Aryan broke down during the interrogation.
He also reportedly admitted that he had been consuming drugs over the last four years.
The NCB authorities have found incriminating materials in Aryan’s mobile phone such as pictures and chats, which revealed links with international drug traffickers.
Aryan was detained by the NCB on Saturday (October 2) from a luxury cruise ship in Mumbai, where he was allegedly present at a rave party, where prohibited drugs such as hashish, cocaine and ecstasy did the rounds.
The NCB team boarded the vessel and arrested Aryan and seven others, including his close friend Arbaaz Merchant, Munmun Dhamecha, Ismeet Singh, Mohak Jaswal, Gomit Chopra, Nupur Sarika and Vikrant Chhokar.
Sameer Wankhede, the NCB’s zonal director, said Aryan and his friends were on the cruise ship when the agency team busted the rave party.
Shreyas Nair, who had supplied some drugs to the friends, has also been detained, Wankhede said.
Aryan’s lawyer, Satish Maneshinde, told the court that he had been invited to the party and did not even have a boarding pass as a regular passenger.
The NCB did not find any drugs on Aryan, he asserted.
“One of the grounds for asking custody is seizure of commercial quantity from other accused,” Maneshinde told the court.
“Commercial quantities seized from other accused cannot be foisted on Aryan. They are talking about international drug trafficking which is a very serious charge and has to be backed by evidence. WhatsApp chat without any recovery is not of significance... in several cases learned judges have granted bail and not tagged the entire seizure,” he added.
Jurgen Bailom, the president and CEO of Cordelia Cruise, told media persons that he was cooperating with the NCB. “There were about a thousand passengers when the ship (Cordelia Empress) left Mumbai,” said Bailom. He said he was not aware of the guests. The company had chartered the ship for a private event to a Delhi-based firm.
Several Bollywood celebrities have extended their support to Shah Rukh Khan. Salman Khan visited Khan at his home in Bandra on Sunday night. Suniel Shetty, Pooja Bhatt, Suchitra Krishnamurthy and director Hansal Mehta were among those who backed Aryan on social media.
“I stand in solidarity with you @SRK Not that you need it,” tweeted Pooja Bhatt. “But I do. This too, shall pass,” she further tweeted.
The case took a political turn on Monday.
The Congress accused that the NCB authorities had raided the cruise ship in a bid to divert attention from the massive seizure of nearly 3,000-kilogram (kg) of drugs by the Directorate of Revenue Intelligence (DRI) from Mundra port in the Bharatiya Janata Party-ruled Gujarat.
The Congress has demanded a Supreme Court-monitored probe into the drugs haul at Mundra.
Aryan was booked under provisions of the Narcotics Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act, 1985. Later, the NCB officials contacted Shah Rukh Khan and the father, and the son were allowed to speak for a few minutes in accordance with the law. | [

During the last years, timber-concrete composite (TCC) structures have been extensively used in Europe both in new and existing buildings. Generally speaking, a composite structure combines the advantages of both materials employed: the strength and stiffness of the concrete in compression and the tensile strength, lightweight, low embodied energy, and aesthetical appearance of the timber. The concrete slab provides protection of the timber beams from direct contact with water, which is crucial to ensure the durability of the timber beams, particularly when used for bridges. Different types of connectors can be used to provide force exchange between the concrete slab and the timber beam. The choice of a structurally effective yet cheap shear connection between the concrete topping and the timber joist is crucial to make the TCC structures a viable solution that can compete with reinforced concrete and steel structures. In this paper, the possibilities offered by TCC structures for short-span bridge decks are discussed. The technology of TCC structures and the general design rules are illustrated. Three case studies are reported, including a short-span bridge tested in Colorado, USA, with the timber layer being constructed from recycled utility poles and notch connection; a TCC bridge with glulam beams and triangular notches with epoxy-glued rebar connectors built in Portugal; and a TCC bridge with glulam beams and rectangular notches built in Germany. All the solutions were found to be structurally effective and aesthetically pleasing. They can all provide a sustainable option for short-span bridges.

XRP’s recent journey has been a mix of promise and uncertainty. Despite the optimism generated by the favorable ruling in the Ripple-SEC case, XRP’s price hasn’t surged as expected compared to the overall market trend. This divergence has left XRP holders in a state of ambiguity, hoping for substantial growth while witnessing the broader crypto market soar.
2024: Turning Point for Crypto Adoption
Amid this backdrop, Ripple’s vice president of global policy, Rob Grant, has made intriguing predictions. His projection of a major U.S. retailer embracing crypto payments before the year’s end sparks curiosity and hope within the crypto community. This prediction signifies a pivotal shift from speculative trading to practical utility for cryptocurrencies, potentially positioning them as a viable payment solution rather than solely investment assets.
Big changes are brewing for cryptocurrencies, especially with the upcoming launch of spot Bitcoin ETFs. This move could significantly boost how widely accepted cryptocurrencies become. While there’s no clear info yet on which major U.S. store will start taking crypto payments, Ripple’s focus on using XRP for global payments, according to Grant, might help make XRP and other cryptocurrencies more popular and useful.
CBDC Plays a Huge Role
In parallel to these predictions, Ripple’s projection of CBDCs emerging in 2024 adds another layer of anticipation. Grant foresees a G7 nation stepping into the CBDC arena, signaling a pivotal era where government-backed digital currencies take center stage. The introduction of CBDCs by major economies could revolutionize traditional financial systems, potentially validating and legitimizing the broader crypto landscape.
XRP Continues to Drop Amidst Positive Ripple Vibes
XRP, historically strong in the altcoin market, has struggled to maintain its 5th position amid the current bullish wave, with its price lagging. Despite brief spikes around early December, hitting $0.69, it dipped by 11.5% to $0.61 by December 20. Ripple’s recent ecosystem advancements, like the CBDC whitepaper and recognition by the Central Bank of Ireland, haven’t boosted XRP’s price. Experts anticipate a bearish trend, expecting XRP to dip below $0.60 shortly.
But If XRP’s price is to surge, bullish momentum needs to drive XRP beyond $0.75. A breakthrough above this level could propel XRP to $1, with potential rallies aiming for $2 and possibly $3.
Overall, Rob Grant’s predictions point to a changing world where practicality and widespread use could energize cryptocurrencies, possibly changing how we see and use digital assets like XRP.
Hence, the question is – With 2023 ending on such a note, will 2024 be any different? How high can XRP go in the new year? | [

Sage Jamadagni was once performing a yajna in his ashram.
He asked his wife Renuka, to get water from the river Ganga. Renuka went
to the river where she found some gandharvas (heavenly beings) enjoying
themselves. She stood looking at them and got late. Jamadagni was very
angry. He ordered his sons to kill their mother, Renuka. His sons were
shocked. They stood silent. This further enraged Jamadgni. Just then,
Parshurama, another son of Jamadagni entered with Renuka. Jamadagni
ordered him to kill his mother and his brothers. Without hesitating,
Parshurama raised his axe and chopped their heads off. By now,
Jamadagni's anger had cooled down. He was pleased with Parshurama's
devotion and gave him a wish. Parshurama asked him to bring his mother
and brothers from the wrath of his father.
Parshurama, the sixth avatar of Vishnu, had a violent
temper. When he heard of Rama breaking the bow at Sita's swayamvara, he
Parshurama, a master archer himself and a disciple of Shiva, could not
bear to hear of Rama's victory. Besides being a proud Brahmin priest, he
disliked the idea of 'Kshatriya,' a man belonging to the warrior class,
winning the challenge. He decided to meet Rama and challenged him.
On his way to Ayodhya, accompanied by Dasaratha, Laxmana and Sita, Rama
met Parshurama. Wielding his famous axe, Parshurama promptly attacked
Rama. Rama, on the other hand, countered it with his Kondanda bow, and a
fierce battle followed.
While the combat continued their eyes met and everything changed. There was love in place of range, and respect instead of hatred.
Recognising each other as different forms of the same supreme Vishnu,
they threw their weapons and embraced each other. | [

Season 2 of The White Lotus kicked off with a big mystery. No, not who died in the ocean — this specific question had to do with the behind-the-scenes mechanics of how one particular scene was filmed. After Theo James’ character Cameron dropped trou right in front of Harper, social media exploded as fans wondered how much of the full-frontal moment was real. Thankfully, Theo James finally revealed the truth about his White Lotus nude scene, confirming whether or not he was wearing a prosthetic.
James dished all the details about his buzzy moment during his Dec. 2 appearance on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon. After fans of the series spent over a month speculating about the scene, Fallon finally asked James if he was wearing a prosthetic. “Yeah, it’s a pee-pee prosthetic,” James confirmed.
He went on to detail his own shock when he first saw the piece he’d be wearing. “The lovely Rebecca, who was the makeup designer, comes up and is like, ‘You know, this is what they want to do, but obviously we want you to have some input.’ So I said, ‘Honestly, I just don’t want it to be distracting; it needs to be regular Joe,’” James recalled, explaining how he wanted the focus of the scene to be on the sexual power dynamics between Cameron and Harper. “And she says, ‘I got you, I got you. Regular Joe.’”
But James was in for a surprise when he finally saw the prosthetic. “So we get to set and she’s got like a hammer or something. I mean, it’s bigger than that, it’s like she stole it off a donkey in the field,” James said. “The thing is ginormous and me and the director, Mike White, are sitting there going, ‘That’s average, is it?’ We’re, like, calling our respective partners being like, ‘I’m so sorry.’ It was 9 inches flaccid and about 4 inches wide, and we were like ‘What the hell is that?!’”
The scene in the premiere wound up only showing a quick glimpse of the prosthetic, but James previously revealed that the nudity was originally much more NSFW before it was “toned down” in subsequent takes.
Well, that’s one White Lotus mystery solved. Now fans just have to figure out who’s about to die... and what Quentin might be up to. New episodes of The White Lotus Season 2 drop Sunday nights at 9 p.m. ET on HBO and HBO Max. | [

Stratasys Releases Financial Results for First Quarter 2017; Sees Increase in 3D Printing Consumable Revenue
As May moves past the halfway point, financial results from the first quarter are beginning to roll out from several 3D printing companies. Among the latest to release their financial information is Stratasys, which is just coming off a big week of announcements at RAPID + TCT. The 3D printer manufacturer saw a slight loss this time around, with total revenue of $163.2 million, compared to $167.9 million for the same period last year. It’s not a huge loss, and Stratasys isn’t overly concerned; there were still plenty of bright spots, like a 7% increase in consumable revenue.
“We remain encouraged by our performance within our key vertical markets during the first quarter, driven by our initiatives to drive customer engagement. In addition, we believe that strong utilization of our installed base of systems was demonstrated by steady growth in consumables and customer support revenue during the period, while improved focus resulted in reductions in our operating expenses,” said Stratasys CEO Ilan Levin.
Net GAAP loss was $13.9 million, which is far less than the net loss of $23.9 million the company saw in the first quarter of 2016. Non-GAAP net income also went up quite a bit, from $0.6 million to $2.4 million. So the news isn’t all bad, and in fact, the slight decrease in revenue from the first quarter of 2016 to the first quarter of 2017 is barely bad news at all. There have been plenty of highlights for Stratasys so far this year, too.
April alone was full of case studies as Stratasys collaborated with various partners, including Queen Elizabeth Hospital, where the company’s PolyJet 3D printing technology was used to make maxillofacial surgical guides and anatomical models; Siemens, which used a Fortus 900mc to 3D print custom production parts for trams; and McLaren Racing, which is using Stratasys 3D printers to produce parts for race cars. Cases such as these are signs of Stratasys’ gradual shift from prototyping to production-grade machines and materials, which could very well point in the direction of gains rather than losses in coming quarters.
Additional highlights from the year so far included the launching of the Expert Services Group, a strategic agreement with SIA Engineering Company (SIAEC) to establish an Additive Manufacturing Service Center in Singapore, and a strategic investment in LPW Technology. The LPW investment, as well as the early investment in and recently expanded partnership with Desktop Metal and activity through Stratasys Direct Manufacturing, also highlight Stratasys’ ongoing efforts in the growing metal additive manufacturing arena.
“We are pleased with the progress we are making in developing applications that are driven by the specific needs of our customers,” said Levin. “We believe that this deeper customer engagement will help us to provide significant value and grow the adoption our products and services. Our recent announcements with Siemens Mobility and SIA Engineering, as well as the early success of our collaboration with McLaren Racing, illustrate the potential value that can be created by our extensive knowledge and capabilities.”
Guidance for projected revenue and loss for the rest of the fiscal year includes:
- Revenue guidance of $645 to $680 million.
- GAAP net loss guidance of $53 to $39 million
- Non-GAAP net income guidance of $10 to $20 million

We spend about a third of our lives asleep. What really goes on during this time? The answer: more than anyone ever dreamed. This research is based on well-established findings that the brain doesn’t stop working when we sleep. During as much as 20 percent of our sleeping time, we exhibit rapid bursts of eye movements, and our brains are almost as active as when we are awake. Called REM (rapid eye movement) sleep, these are periods of vivid dreaming. During the rest of our sleep, even though consciousness is greatly diminished, our brain cells remain surprisingly active.
“Studies show that hallucinatory mental content is lowest during active waking and highest during REM sleep,” says Allan Hobson, a professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School. “The incidence of thinking is highest during quiet waking and lowest during REM sleep. The implication of these findings is that the sleeping brain can either generate its own perceptions or it can think about them. It cannot do both at the same time. Therefore, dreaming is as hallucinatory and thoughtless (delusional) as so-called mental illness.”
Think of that next time you try to make sense out of your dreams. | [
