[Mix engineer] Anyone who records and mixes professionally has done this at least once in their career—you tweak a snare or vocal track to perfection only to discover later that the EQ was bypassed the whole time. Or you were tweaking a different track. And if you’ve been mixing and playing around with … whether you’re a professional or just a hobbyist, if you’ve been doing this for a few years and you haven’t done that, then you’re lying. Yet you were certain you heard a change! Human auditory memory and perception are extremely fragile, and expectation bias and placebo effect are much stronger than people care to admit. | 2019-04-24T08:08:27Z | http://www.citizenanalog.com/2010/05/leave-it-to-leavity.html |
Overlooking its obvious flaw, Samsung’s Galaxy Note 7 was one heck of a smartphone with a terrific display. At the time, renowned smartphone display expert and DisplayMate President Dr. Raymond M. Soneira found the flagship to have the most innovative and high performance display of any handset.
That’s some stiff competition to tackle but according to Soneira, Samsung has done just that with the Note 7’s successor.
In a report on the matter, Soneira notes that the Galaxy S8 steals the crown as the most innovative and high performance smartphone display they’ve ever tested in the lab.
Soneira found that the Galaxy S8 matches or sets new smartphone display records for highest peak brightness (1,020 nits), largest native color gamut (113 percent DCI-P3 and 142 percent sRGB / Rec.709), highest contrast rating in ambient light (227), highest (infinite) contrast ratio and lowest screen reflectance (4.5 percent), just to name a few.
The screen expert recalls that the first notable OLED smartphone they looked at, the Google Nexus One, came in last place in their 2010 smartphone display shootout. In the span of just seven years, mobile OLED technology now has a commanding first place lead on the industry and continues forging ahead.
The culmination of that is the Galaxy S8, the first in a new generation of OLED smartphones. Samsung is setting the stage for 2017 flagships as they’ll all likely use full screen display designs with flexible OLED technology.
Samsung’s Galaxy S8 and S8+ smartphones go on sale April 21. | 2019-04-19T20:24:22Z | https://www.techspot.com/news/68801-samsung-galaxy-s8-earns-grade-best-performing-smartphone.html |

Overwatch, PUBG, CS:GO, Quake Champions, Killing Floor 2... the volume and variety of great first-person shooters has never been greater.
Don't look now, but right now might be the best time ever for multiplayer FPSes. I'm old enough to have experienced the [to the tune of Bryan Adams] 'FPSummer of Ninety-Nine' that gave us, egad, Quake III, Unreal Tournament, Team Fortress Classic, and the beginning of Counter-Strike. I think 2017 surpasses that.
An Arma mod on steroids is the most popular FPS on Steam. PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds is a story generator that balances intense firefights with goofing around. It's a 100-person free-for-all on a massive map that also respects your time. This week PUBG is running its first major tournament at Gamescom, with a $350,000 prize pool.
Even with PUBG alongside it, Arma 3—an intricate and often demanding sim—averages about 22,000 concurrent players daily. That's five times the playerbase it had at launch in 2013.
Blizzard's first FPS is colorful, competitive, and inclusive. But maybe most noteworthy is the tenacity and transparency with which Blizzard has iterated on Overwatch over time: it's been patched more than 120 times since launch, with seven seasonal events so far.
Investment money is pouring into Blizzard's Overwatch League, which will hopefully lay the groundwork for stable team rosters and great tournaments.
Tribes isn't dead, it was just sleeping.
Valve's support for CS:GO has been inconsistent, but the shooter has nevertheless cemented itself as an insanely deep competitive game. You could spend months working on your grenade technique alone. With its massive tournaments and a little help from online gambling, CS:GO has paved the way for all other FPS' esports scenes.
Quake is back. Even with a free-to-play business model, rentable characters, and 'ultimate' abilities attached to each champion, Quake Champions bunnyhops and talks like a pure Quake game.
One of the biggest game publishers in the world made a multiplayer-only, PC-first, tactical FPS and has supported it well for two years. Rainbow Six Siege has 2.3M daily players on all platforms.
One decade after Halo 2, Destiny 2 is coming to PC.
Tripwire and Antimatter Games are quietly making some of the best FPSes on this list. Killing Floor 2, which just ran a great summer event, deserves some sort of blood-soaked Emmy for its gore system and gun animations. Rising Storm 2: Vietnam represents one of the best midpoints between authenticity and accessibility, continuing the series' ambitious focus on asymmetry.
Battlefield 1, with easily the best infantry combat in the series, chugs along with paid expansions.
March's Day of Infamy is a worthy successor to Day of Defeat, with great co-op to boot.
Unreal Tournament is being remade as a unique collaboration between modders and Epic.
Expect a major update to Team Fortress 2 when it turns 10 on October 10.
Call of Duty: WWII is getting a beta on PC.
20 years after GoldenEye came out on Nintendo 64, the best version of it exists on PC and is maintained by a team of passionate fans. It's free.
Most of these games are funded by cosmetic microtransactions that don't affect gameplay, rather than expansions or map packs that would fragment the player base.
The 144hz monitors you should play these games on are getting cheaper.
I'm accepting counter-arguments in the comments. | 2019-04-20T14:35:22Z | https://www.pcgamer.com/2017-shooters/ |
Maintaining of engines is important to get the best performance out of an engine. When you drive the engine you are partly responsible for maintenance during stationary at depots. small workshops are direct accessible for drivers to perform small repairing and restorations. The workshop is also responsible for the engine as well where the engine is based. | 2019-04-23T16:15:53Z | http://steamtrainsunlimited.net/06-engine-maintenance/ |
Hey, wanna see my mesh.
"adding 3D effect to web.."
Photo of original teapot being modeled.
Wouldn't it be nice if there was a simple way of taking photographs of objects and magically transforming them into 3D objects? Well D Sculptor isn't it, but it does do a darn good job if you're willing to put in some work. D Sculptor is a new product from a new company called D Vision Works Limited in the UK. It was created by people with a whole bunch of photogrammetry experience and responsible for Geometra a previously reviewed product.
D Sculptor doesn't work by finding corresponding points of objects in photographs like most of these types of programs. Rather you find corresponding points of a reference set of points, marks on a table and then you outline the object in each of the photographs. If you have a lot of photographs this can get quite tedious but quality is never easy to obtain.
Object after outlining and mesh generation.
Final 3D object with extracted texture applied.
D Sculptor costs £500 (UK pound sterling) which is approximately $723 (US Dollars), it's not cheap but for a highly specialized modeling program like this, it's not bad either.
Position the object you want to model on a dot pattern.
Take photos of the object from a number of different angles.
Import these photographs into D Sculptor.
Point out the dots on the dot pattern in each photo.
Mark out the outline of the object in each photo.
Let D Sculptor calculate the 3-D model for you.
Export the 3-D model for use with other software packages as required.
Marking the dot patterns is no big deal and just a tad tedious. Outlining the objects, as you might imagine, could be a horrendous task. It's no fun but it's made much easier by the addition of a "stiffness slider" that let's you use a slider which causes D Sculpt to help you identify the edge boundaries of the photograph.
After you've gone through the photography, and dot patter matching and outlining process you can generate the mesh. On the bottom of the interface is a "P" and "M" for the two major modes. Photo mode and Model mode. Photo mode is where you do the outlining and pattern matching. Model mode is where you manipulate the model in 3D and refine the mesh. Also in Model mode you can adjust the rendering of the 3D object to display a solid object, flat or smooth shading.
A particularly nice feature is a slider that let's you control the density of the triangular mesh. You can use this to generate levels-of-detail for use in your run time delivery system. The following images illustrate teapots with progressively reduced numbers of polygons. The first contains 3000, then 1002, 504 and finally 105 triangles.
An equally important feature is the ability of the system to extract a texture map from the photographs. The original texture of the object is preserved and is mapped onto the mesh resulting in a photographic quality end product, the 3D model that looks like the real thing. Finally when you're all done D Sculptor has a rich set of export file formats such as: Direct 3D, DXF, Java (compressed Java graphics .cjg), VRML 2.0, Wavefront (.obj), JPG, BMP, TIFF.
The D Vision Works web site contains a number of example screen shots illustrating a D Sculptor mesh used in Maya and Bryce.
Happy modeling and may your meshes be efficient and all your polygons coplanar. | 2019-04-22T09:01:37Z | https://www.sandyressler.com/about/library/weekly/aa031401a.htm |
Two cemeteries in Washington County are prime examples of the wealth of history that graveyards can hold -- and the hard work required to maintain it.
Amid the hubbub of shopping centers and the din of traffic from nearby Hwy. 61, the cemetery sandwiched between McDonald's and Tires Plus seems jarringly out of place.
Few pause to notice the prim patch of well-tended green, bounded by an iron fence, that holds some of Cottage Grove's earliest pioneers.
The cemetery, designated a historic site by the Washington County Historical Society, has ties to the founders of Mars Inc., the giant candy manufacturing company.
Across the county, another cemetery lies hidden along a gravel road on one of the steep hillsides above Afton. It also holds many of that city's pioneers. Among them are several Civil War veterans, including one known as "the fighting reverend."
Lonely and forlorn, ravaged by vandals and threatened by encroaching buckthorn and other overgrowth from a nearby woods, it is a cemetery in a battle for its life.
Though Atkinson Cemetery in Cottage Grove and Mount Hope Cemetery in Afton are of the same vintage, historic significance and background, their fates have taken decidedly contrasting turns.
The status of Minnesota's historic cemeteries is reflected in these two graveyards.
There are more than 4,000 cemeteries and farm burial grounds in Minnesota; many are abandoned or under threat of vandalism and neglect, their history forgotten. "I would call it a significant problem," said Bonnie McDonald, executive director of the Minnesota Preservation Alliance.
In 2002, the alliance placed Mount Hope Cemetery on its Top 10 list of most endangered historic sites in the state. The cemetery had been abandoned, and Washington County was considering the site as a location for a new radio tower, McDonald said.
Since then, the graveyard has been removed from the endangered list: the county placed its antenna elsewhere because the city's title to the cemetery land was unsettled.
While that may be good news in the short term, McDonald said, Mount Hope still faces the same problems as other historic cemeteries across the state.
"Reinvesting or donating money to preserve cemeteries is a harder sell" compared to buildings, McDonald said. "It takes people."
Two people, E. Katie Holm and Ken Martens, have taken a special interest in two of Washington County's oldest graveyards, and their work insures that the cemeteries' history won't be lost.
It's not just dry dates and facts, but poignant stories of pioneer lives.
Helped by a grant from the Independent Feature Project, Holm, a Minneapolis writer and photographer, spent about a year researching and documenting the history of Atkinson Cemetery and the lives of the city pioneers who lie there. For her efforts, she was named the city's preservationist of the year in 2005.
"My family has always had an interest in cemeteries and genealogy," Holm said. Specifically, she credits her grandmother for sparking her interest in the stories that cemeteries have to tell.
"Cemeteries show the history of each place -- where it started and where it's been," she said. "They show how people care for their memories."
The cemetery, Holm found, was probably founded on heartache. John Atkinson had been one of Cottage Grove's first arrivals, in 1846. He founded the Universalist Church, set up a private school in his home and became an early city leader. When his 16-year-old son Martin drowned in 1854, he was likely buried on a parcel of land Atkinson owned. That site grew into the cemetery.
In the early 1970s, before the area around it was developed, Atkinson Cemetery had been abandoned for 60 years, so overgrown no one even noticed it was there, Holm said.
Once it was rediscovered, the city, joined by families and the city's Lions Club, began major restoration work. Most of the vegetation, save for a majestic oak tree, was removed. Grave markers were replaced, Holm said, but after years of vandalism and lost records, it's not certain that gravestones were put back in their original spots.
The effort was aided by Forrest Mars, head of the giant candy company whose family -- inventors of M&Ms and Milky Way and Snickers candy bars -- is from the Newport/Cottage Grove area. A large monument in the cemetery pays tribute to the Mars ancestors, though it's unknown if any are actually buried there.
"I would assume there's more people there than there are records for," Holm said. Notably, there is no gravestone for John Atkinson, but it's likely he's somewhere in the cemetery bearing his name. "As far as I know, no one knows where he's buried."
Martens, a local historian who is active in the Afton Historical Museum, first visited Mount Hope Cemetery with his father as a boy, in 1967. The pair hiked up the hillside on Halloween day. "And we had to look for it, because there was no improvement here."
As with Atkinson Cemetery, the first burials at Mount Hope were in 1854, four years before Minnesota became a state.
Among the Civil War veterans buried here, Martens said, is the Rev. Simon Putnam, whose fiery ardor for the Union cause helped recruit dozens ofsoldiers. Many joined the First Minnesota Infantry, the unit credited with turning the tide at the Battle of Gettysburg.
"I call him the fighting reverend," Martens said. Putnam, who founded the Congregational Church in Afton and whose house still stands across from the Afton Historical Society Museum, enlisted at age 39, bringing his 16-year-old son Myron along as a drummer boy.
The Putnams ended up with the Third Minnesota Volunteers. While fewer than 20 members of the unit died in battle, nearly 300 died of disease. That was the case for both Putnams.
The cemetery is actually two distinct areas, Martens said: A Victorian-era cemetery with more ornate stones and formal burial sites and, further into the woods, a primitive burial ground with cruder homemade stones and telltale depressions in the earth with no markings.
"It's been lost and forgotten a lot of times, and then rediscovered and lost again," Martens said. There are 33 burials in the newer portion, though archaeologists suspect there could be 100 more.
Vandals have made it a frequent target, and their damage is still evident. Buckthorn and other vegetation also are encroaching on the site, despite volunteers who occasionally mow it and Boy Scouts who do frequent cleanups, Martens said. "Nature takes over faster than you can clean it up."
Martens has spent much time over the past 40 years poring through records and piecing together the stories of the people buried at the cemetery. "I feel like I'm a detective trapped in a time machine," he said.
Partly through his work, there may be hope for Mount Hope Cemetery.
The city of Afton is in the process of getting a clear title to the land. Once that's done, the cemetery could get the regular care that it needs, said Ken Johnson, head of the city's Public Works Department.
That prospect tantalizes Martens. "There's still mysteries to be solved here," he said. "If we could preserve it, we could probably get to the answers someday." | 2019-04-26T16:54:51Z | http://www.startribune.com/graveyards-where-history-lives-on/98983959/?elr=KArks%3ADCiUHc3E7_V_nDaycUiD3aPc%3A_Yyc%3AaUUr |

LA JOLLA, Calif.--(HSMN NewsFeed)--Traversa Therapeutics, Inc., a privately held developer of RNAi delivery technologies, announced today the completion of a $2 million Series A financing led by the San Diego Tech Coast Angels and joined by investors Mesa Verde Venture Partners and Morningside Group.
Traversa was founded with technology developed by Professor Steven F. Dowdy, Ph.D., and his research group at the Howard Hughes Medical Institute and the University of California San Diego (UCSD) relating to siRNA delivery and the induction of RNA Interference (RNAi).
“There is a great need for novel short interfering RNA (siRNA) delivery platforms. This technology has shown outstanding delivery characteristics in pre-clinical models, as well as in vitro delivery to nearly all cell types and entire cell populations assayed in a non-cytotoxic fashion. These cell types include primary cells, T cells, B cells, Macrophage, huESC and tumor cells, where other delivery approaches have failed,” noted Dr. Dowdy, co-founder of Traversa.
Dr. Francois Ferre, co-CEO of Althea Technologies and lead angel investor, has joined the board. Both Dan Wood of Mesa Verde Venture Partners and Roger Flugel of Sanderling Ventures are board observers. Sanderling Ventures and a Morningside Group entity are limited partners of Mesa Verde Venture Partners.
Traversa Therapeutics, Inc. is a La Jolla, California-based biopharmaceutical company engaged in the discovery, development and commercialization of RNAi delivery technologies. The company strives to rapidly advance siRNA platform delivery technologies for use internally and by other pharmaceutical companies in targeting a wide variety of acute, chronic and infectious human diseases. Traversa also markets its technology for high throughput RNAi screening applications.

"Pare, you're so thin!" I greeted my friend this afternoon. What happened?
Turns out my friend started exercising this year -- 20 minutes on the treadmill on weekdays, 45 on weekends. Every. Single. Day.
Why the sudden need to be athletic? He was surprised to find out that his blood pressure was 160 over something.
I got scared when I found out that even though he had such high blood pressure, he didn't feel that anything was wrong with him. He actually felt good (except for a stuffy nose, but that was it).
So how'd he bring it down to a respectable 120/80? Nope, not medication. Just exercise (lots of walking) and a sensible diet.
Which reminds me of those P.E. classes about maintaining 60% to 80% of your Maximum Heart Rate for about 30 minutes. Remember that thing about 220 minus your age?
Anyway, there's another Max HR formula that deals with your age and 5% of your body weight in pounds. It's called The Best Fit Formula for computing your maximum heart rate.
Okay. Enough typing in front of the computer. It's time to walk around more. See ya! | 2019-04-22T16:48:28Z | http://www.viloria.com/secondthoughts/archives/00000158.html |
"Bill Eger is a flight attendant who has suffered from debilitating back pain on and off for 15 years. After just three SLM Bodywork sessions he is functioning like a normal person again and is so impressed he has signed up to do the SLM therapist training, initially as a part time job and then full time as he retires from flying in the coming years."
"My career as a World Champion Boxer was destined to be cut short by hand problems before I discovered SLM. I had consulted some of the best surgeons, physiotherapists, chiropractors, acupuncturists and massage therapists for help but none could relieve my pain and keep me fighting until I found Steve Lockhart and SLM Therapy."
Three times World Boxing Champion.
"Steve thanks for all the miracles you have performed for me this year, without them I would have never have won the World Cup."
For almost a year I struggled with a nagging groin injury that seemed as difficult to diagnose as it was to treat. After countless visits to anyone with a different perspective and method of treatment for this enigmatic injury, my girlfriend sent me to Steve Lockhart. He not only addressed and removed imbalances in my body (allowing me to move strongly, securely and painlessly once again), but educated me on how to prevent them from plaguing me in the future. Steve has given me an extra 5-6 years of work in a demanding industry.
"After suffering a mountain climbing accident my lower back become a chronic problem. I had many treatments from Chiropractors, Physiotherapists and Osteopaths all to no avail. I felt that the exact nature of the injury and consequent symptoms were overlooked. No one even came close to Steve's ability in reading the body and feeling the knotted spasms in the muscles, providing instant relief. Steve was able to diagnose and then correct this imbalance. For those with any type of injury , weather muscular or joint, I would not hesitate to send them straight to Steve. SLM has been the difference of regaining my previous strength, flexibility and peace of mind. He has also assisted greatly in strengthening my core muscle group and provided welcome advice on how nutrition helps the rehabilitation process."
"As a former National Track and Field Athlete I incurred an injury which I sought treatment for over a period of 5 years. I supposedly saw the best of the best- physiotherapists, acupuncturists, sports doctors, massage therapists, alternative therapists and so on. After years of running around and spending thousands of dollars no one could help my injury. I saw Steve intensively for just one month and he not only understood the dynamics of my injury he worked to alleviate my pain in this short period of time. And the results have lasted. I recommend Steve as the most knowledgeable and talented massage therapist I know. He is in tune with the body, passionate about his work and dedicated to fixing any problem you have. A truly amazing healer!"
"When Dave ruptured the disc at L4/ L5 in his lower back the top neurosurgeon and physiotherapist he saw told him there was no way he could avoid surgery as his injury was as bad as they had seen.
Desperate to avoid the knife he chose SLM Bodywork and 4 months later he is well on the way to a full recovery, back at work and improving every week. The doctors now cannot believe his improvement in such a short time, see for yourself." I am sure you would agree if I could help Dave fix a ruptured disc and avoid surgery then I can help you with your back problem.
"Deborah was having lots of problems sleeping with her back pain which came on after she broke her rib. She had been suffering for 8 weeks before she had her first SLM treatment and hasn't looked back.
Just wanted to let you know how excited I am about the results I am getting from your program. I have had really terrible sciatica pain for a year and have tried physio, acupuncture, osteo, chiropractic and various other remedies all with no results, until I got your book and DVD.
I started the SLM Yoga exercises about three weeks ago and started noticing improvement within days and now some days are completely pain free. I am looking forward to a complete recovery soon. I was getting really desperate for some relief from the pain until I found your program on the internet.Thank you so much.
I commenced Steve's program on 5th December, 2006 with the objective of correcting a long standing pelvic imbalance. I experienced an immediate relief in several tight, painful areas after the first session, and by week three, my pelvis had rotated forward and my 1cm leg discrepancy was almost corrected. Steve's program contains the most coherent, constructive advice and self-help treatment plans I have ever found on this subject. I am delighted with my progress so far, and am highly motivated to continue. I encourage others who want to help themselves to use this program as a path to regaining wellness.
Graduate Certificate Infection Control FRCNA (Ret'd).
Just wanted to say a quick thank you for your Self-Treatment program. I have been using this for about about a month and have noticed a big improvement all round!
I was being treated by a chiropractor for a workplace injury I sustained some 12 years ago. My pelvis was unaligned causing fairly severe pain over the past few years. Anyway I received your self-treatment program and am thrilled. I have much more mobility on a day to day basis, as well as essentially non-existent pain (comes and goes, but greatly reduced). When a feeling of soreness or stiffness comes, I pop down onto the floor, do some SLM Yoga and the pain is gone. Thank you so much!
I have followed your DVD conscientiously nearly everyday, and have benefited quite noticeably- better posture, stronger muscles and therefor better spinal support resulting in freedom from pain and more mobility.I keep reading portions of both books as there is such a lot of practical information in them both.
My scenario is- am 74, suffered a lumbar disk lesion about 40 years ago, and, to avoid surgery, spent some weeks in traction. Have consulted many chiropractors and various therapists with (as you would expect) only marginal results, and, really have learnt mainly by painful experience what I can and cannot do, and am really grateful that eventually I came in contact with you.
I've been in trouble with my back for almost 4 years & have only recently been able to function again socially, dress myself etc. I still can't put my own shoes on, or look after my own hygiene properly without my husbands assistance. I haven't launched completely into the program, but I have been using the SLM Yoga now for several weeks once a week.
My first reaction to using the SLM Yoga, is that it is so........ easy to do. I have always found stretching to be hard work for so little gain, but the SLM Yoga technique feels good while I'm doing it. It just feels right. The biggest problem I have is muscle spasms in the QL's, & it feels fantastic to actively isolate them and work on them. Not to mention how great it feels in every other tight part of my body. (Which by the way is everywhere from my neck to my toes) In the last two weeks I've discovered also that by doing the SLM Yoga workout after I have a flare up (which is at least once every few weeks that I go into Spasm & irritate the disc in L5/S1), that the technique relaxes the spasms & minimizes the effects of the flare up. So I get back on track much quicker.
I've also passed you web link on to two work colleagues who have recently developed problems with their back. I recommend it highly to people. I strongly believe in your theory in relation to muscle imbalance. It just makes a lot of sense to me & has helped me make sense of what is going on in my body.
I used to participate in competitive sport, specifically, alot of cycling. I have had a 'bad back' for years, but always dismissed it as just something I have - and then, after a significant injury 2 years ago (snowboard related), I thought I would never cycle again. I was on the floor for weeks at a time, in pain, unable to move. After considering as many options as I could and visiting many different therapists, Myotherapy proved to be the most helpful.
Still with the occasional day with a crook back, I was eager to try the SLM Yoga system. The benefit was immediate: from being on the floor to sitting up and capable of moving about - after just one session. After practising the yoga for several weeks now, it is evident to me how muscular imbalances play such a significant part in the pain associated with, and the recovery from, an injury.
The SLM yoga system has helped me deal with both the chronic back pain I have had for years, and also recovering from an injury that at one point I was considering having surgery to try and fix.
I can now ride my bike again :-) and did the Gong ride on the weekend: the first 'event' I've done in 2 years.
I'm very appreciative Steve, that you have developed such a helpful system. It has helped me immeasurably, and I have learnt alot in the process.
I am a triathlete who has achieved success on the world stage in the 40-44 age group on two occasions. I got hit by a car on my bicycle June 2005 suffering compressed fractures of L4 L5 and nerve /muscle damage. I would be happy to endorse your self treatment program as I feel that I have progressed and really know what you are on about with the treadmill of practitioners. To me my body is still recovering but I am achieving this thru your program and a positive outlook.
I have experienced a BIG learning curve since my Sciatic pain played up several months ago thanks to your Meditative Exercise - SLM Yoga CD plus read your books and found them filled with very easy to follow common sense information for the lay-person.
Somehow I knew the information was out there in this technological world but I was really looking for something natural and simple - bringing things back to basics - which you succinctly do.
Armed with the new information on your exercise regime and a change of a better choice of foods - your meditative exercise program now has been given a greater chance to do its magic.
With my new awareness of these various facts I can now play tennis again as my body feels healthier and lighter.
A lot of studies have been done by his father Dr. James D'Adamo on the Anthropology of Blood types.
I realised that my cupboard was half full of foods that had been bought just because I had been conditioned to do so. You guess it - some were thrown out - and the rest to the chooks.
My next change will be to try the detox regime you recommend in Dr. Sandra Cabot's book "The Liver Cleansing Diet" to give my body an even better head start and get it back to its normal healthy perfect state.
I am very happy to tell my friends about your program and hope they also try it not just when they have pain but as a preventative measure.
After years of upper back and neck pain I am finally getting some relief with your self treatment program. I've been to chiropractors for years getting immediate relief but always had to go back and never actually fixing the problem. Your SLM yoga hits the exact spots where my weaknesses are, you can actually feel it being so good for your back and strengthening it where it is weak. The rubber ball massages are great too, can't believe I can actually give myself a deep tissue massage, as soon as I get a pain from the gym or sport I get the rubber balls onto it and it goes away, normally my vertebrae would be affected. I get great benefit from the exercises that also hit the exact areas that need strengthening. After getting an SLM massage my back and neck were unbelievably pain free, I had never had a massage like it, you can actually feel the whole of the muscle letting go. Thanks Steve so rapt to be able to see light at the end of the tunnel and finally be pain free.
Thank you for your follow up after my purchase of your wonderful system. I think your program has helped me greatly and I would be happy to endorse it.
I am 53 this year. About 20 years ago I use involved in an automobile accident that left me with fractures in my pelvis, a broken shoulder, 8 broken ribs and a punctured lung. I also sustained many internal injuries. Considering the extent of the damage, I have almost no physical complaints today except nagging aches in my lower back and right shoulder. Also, my right leg became 1/2" shorter then before. I count myself truly lucky.
However, as a typical 53 year old American woman, I have spent years at a job that required a long commute to and from the office as well as hours each day sitting at a desk. Lots of sitting, stress, and old trauma add up to pain that simply wouldn't respond to typical treatments. I have had physical therapy, x-rays, massage. Nothing could find the real problem or help for very long.
However, after 5 sessions with your video, I can feel my lower back gaining strength and balance that I haven't felt in years. For the first time in a long time, I sleep through the night without pain. I am still sore in the morning but that is lessening now. I think very soon I will feel like really exercising again.
I have told my massage therapist about your program and he wants to see your tape thinking it might be able to help other clients of his.
Thank you for producing this "help yourself" system. In my case, it's been really wonderful.
I am extremely pleased that I am now capable of a good days physical work.
Almost two years ago I pinched my sciatic nerve and could barely move an inch because of the intense pain. With much difficulty I managed to drive to the doctor who informed me there was not much I could do but allow it to heal and he gave me a local anesthetic to remove the pain. That was fine for about eight hours and the pain returned. I began alternate day visits to the chiropractor and many good dollars later, in my frustration I researched to find out the cure and I located your site.
Since then the road to my recovery has been only positive. I am amazed at how well I have improved my physical being and learned to manage the back pain that I have suffered in total for approximately ten years. My wife and I do the wall sits together and then follow with the stretching SLM yoga style. Each morning I have been driving to our block of land and working a full days manual labour. My latest project is treefelling some very large grey gum trees which requires constant back fatigue and lots of backbending work.
When the day is complete it becomes a relief to get home and complete the SLM yoga program and feel the relief of any pain.
I still have a constant awareness of my spine. In all activities I am thankful that I now have a confidence that soon I will have a complete and total recovery. Till then we will continue to benefit from this treatment.
This product has my full recommendation to it.
For the first time in over two years, I've not taken any painkillers for 3 weeks straight. The tingling and numbness in my feet has gone as has the pain down my legs. I can now walk at my normal speed for several hundred metres. I have started swimming again, doing the exercises as suggested in the book. The ball exercises for my back are the best thing that I have ever learnt. None of the specialists like physios, osteopaths, doctors, chiropractors ever suggested anything like it. The exercises you have given in your book are the best I've ever used - this is evidenced by better walking and better sleeping.
I started the exercise program as soon as I finished reading the 'Do It Yourself Guide'. Your guide confirmed everything I believed was happening with my back and reinforced to me how it should be treated. Your book is the sort of information I have been looking for, for a long while. A book that takes a holistic approach to not only your back but your body and its health in general. Your book just makes so much sense. I have also recommended to people I have met to visit your web site.
I am much more in tune with the muscles and certainly notice the difference under stress.
Thank you very much Steve, I almost lost hope for a while and contemplated surgery, which of course all the physio's and chiropractors I had seen were saying.
Just completed the SLM Yoga session. Wow what a good workout. I can certainly feel area's were I am weak and need some strengthening. So will definitely try and do it on a regular basis now.
I have been prone to mid back pain for more than 10 years & in that time with the help of a good chiropractor I have been pain free for long periods.
In recent times it has been taking more sessions with my chiropractor & more intensive treatments to attain the same level of relief.
This time when my back pain returned I had purchased your self treatment book & with it & your clear answers in the forum I was able to treat the pain myself for the first time in 10 years without the need for any other outside help & for less than the cost of one visit to my chiropractor.
Just wanted to let you know how effective I have found this program in a short period of time.
Thanks Steve, I've been using the self-help program for 3 days now to correct rhomboid pain which has been ongoing for 3 months now. This is the second episode, the first one last 8 months in 2005/06!!!. I have had something like 30 chiropractic adjustments over the last few months, the effects of which barely lasted a few days. Also, I have been doing stretching programs for this entire period with little success. I have had really good results in just the 3 days since starting your program. I have found that doing the rubber ball work has really helped, just like your book says. Also my triceps in my left arm are still quite sore (again as the book outlined they would be).
I had a perforated disc incident just over 20 years ago from which it took about a year to recover. I never had back problems again until now with this reoccurrence of sciatica down the right side, from the lower back to the ankle. My doctor prescribed an anti-inflammatory, which helped somewhat but not for long. After about 4 months of this I sent for your book, then your SLM program.
I had major relief within two weeks of starting the exercises and also found the ball treatment very effective. It is now about six weeks and have virtually complete recovery except for the occasional niggle at the buttock.
In my opinion this type of treatment should be the first thing anyone with a back problem should try. I was prepared to put up with the pain forever before considering having surgical intervention, as I have seen the sad results of surgery on two friends, one of which as been virtually bedridden for the past 5 years.
Thank you for your program.

I work at a desk on a computer for about 9 hours a day and am fairly sedentary. As a result of this I have been suffering pain in the upper back which radiates to the front of my left shoulder I have put up with this for 18months. On holidays in November, I pulled something? in my lower back and my movement was severely restricted. Since then I have been having fortnightly visits to my chiropractor, mobility returned, but has been still somewhat restricted.
I received your self help program about a month ago. I have been following the yoga program about 3 times per week. Last week I forgot and missed my Chiro appointment, my back felt pretty good hence the appointment wasn't in my mind. I visited her (Chiro) yesterday. I sat on her bed as usual and she gently prodded my lower back, spine area, normally this is very painful but this time nothing. She then felt the area in my middle back that is always inflamed and swollen and asked me what I have been doing. She said my lower back and pelvis is back in alignment and she didn't need to do anything and my inflamed and swollen bits of my spine had improved significantly. She praised me for taking control of my own pain and told me to keep doing what I have been doing. Thanks Steve, although I was at first skeptical and reneged purchasing the program and SLM Yoga DVD, I am now very happy indeed.
I want to say to you, that I am most impressed with your SLM system. In place of a SLM therapist here in Toronto, which I would happily visit once a month for tuneups, I've had good success with a shiatsu therapist, along with faithful adherence to SLM bodywork. Your two books and the DVD are exactly where it's at for my back and sciatica problems. They present the needed solutions, not understood in my experience with two medical doctor and three chiropractor visitations over a period of years. Your theories and knowledge of how muscles work, and how to cater to their needs for long-term relief of my pain has, to say the least, been most gratifying. Had you been available with your SLM system forty years ago ( I'm 74 now ), I'm confident that my pain-free years would have been increased by 40.
Again, thanks Steve for the results of your successful efforts in the art of bodyworkings.
Sorry for taking so long to get back to you....been a busy few weeks.
Yes, its been 4 weeks (at the time of this email) since I started your program. I've been really impressed! After 4 weeks of following your advice, I'm at the stage where I am back to around 95% recovered. Some minor pain occasionally but I still working on getting rid of that!
I previously had the same disc buldge injury some 9 months ago & did lots of intense physio to fix the problem. This took 4 months before I was at the stage where I am now.
I would highly recommend your book & advice to anyone with any sort of back problem.
I have found that your program makes perfect sense and have done a little with results felt immediately. My knees and hips no longer give so much pain when I walk. A little stiffness near the end of my hour of walking instead of constant pain. I still have a shoulder problem that has been giving me problems for over a year and many visits to chiropractors has done nothing to help.Now that I have sold my business I intend to spend some time getting myself back in shape using your program. I have lost 8kgs by walking and improving my diet and I have been able to avoid blood pressure medication by getting my blood pressure down. I will send a picture etc when I come back from my Easter break to Mildura. I am going to try to see one of your therapists as well.
Please note: Results are not typical and may vary depending on the effort and time they are done and also on a persons age, condition and general health. People who carry out the exercises and follow the advice on this site do so at their own risk and those with existing health conditions should always consult their Doctor before they undertake the exercises in the programs or videos contained on this site. | 2019-04-21T00:36:17Z | http://www.sciaticpain.com.au/getrehab/ |

Incorporating your business transforms it into a legal entity separate from you, capable of starting a lawsuit, buying property or even committing crime. Of course, the decision to incorporate depends on your business and your needs and it isn’t right for every business.
Business owners who do decide to incorporate gain many potential benefits, including lability protection, a range of tax benefits and an easier time getting financing and investors. To help you decide if incorporating is in your best interest, here’s an easy comparison of the pros and cons.
Limited liability protection. This is probably the biggest reason many small businesses end up incorporating, whether they incorporate in Delaware or the state in which they operate. As long as you operate your company according to the laws and regulations set in place, your corporation becomes a legal entity of its own with its own separate debts and liabilities. You can’t be held personally responsible for the corporation’s debts if it becomes unable to pay debts or liabilities, even after a lawsuit. With a partnership or sole proprietorship, on the other hand, personal assets may be seized to pay off the debts from the business.
A range of tax benefits. Corporations are taxed at a significantly lower rate than individuals, although it’s important to remember there are a few types of companies, each with different tax structures. With a C corporation, for example, only the first $50,000 of the company’s taxable income is taxed at 15%, compared to an individual who may be taxed up to 27%. Salaries, employee bonuses, education benefits, health insurance benefits, dependent care assistance and more are also fully deductible, whereas many things are only partially deductible by a partnership or sole proprietor.
Easier access to investment capital. Incorporation usually gives you more flexibility in terms of raising capital. You won’t need to actually borrow money anymore and pay interest; instead, you can choose to sell stock or equity interests. Investors are much more interested in investing after you’ve incorporated.
Your business lives on. For some, the idea that their company can live on after they pass is a strong incentive to incorporate. With a partnership or a proprietorship, the company disappears when the owner dies. Corporations, on the other hand, will keep going on.
Of course, everything has it’s disadvantages, including incorporating your business. There are three primary things you should consider before you make your decision.
Complex rules and laws. Forming a corporation can be challenging, although the real work is the maintenance. Corporations must remain in good standing by filing the necessary paperwork, keeping detailed records and through proper accounting. Failure to follow the established rules and you can lose your liability protection or incur hefty fees.
Possible double taxation. Depending on how you incorporate, you may face double taxation when the company’s profits are first taxed as income to the company and then as income to the shareholders once it’s distributed in the form of dividends. You can avoid this by forming an LLC or electing the S corporation status — provided you meet qualifications.
Advice is usually necessary. During the incorporation process, you may choose to hire a corporate service company like USA Corporate Services to help you choose the right entity based on your business type and then file the necessary paperwork. Once your company is incorporated, you’ll also want to get professional advice and guidance to make sure your business stays complaint. | 2019-04-26T06:16:55Z | https://www.businessblogshub.com/2013/01/the-pros-and-cons-of-incorporating/ |
I'm thinking of applying for a BSc with QTS, but I have already completed 2 years of a BSc Chemistry degree. If I do not complete my Chemistry degree, are my current credits transferable so that the course length is shortened or would I have to complete the full 3 years of the BSc with QTS?
You are unlikely to be able to shorten the length of the teaching course.
You should think very carefully about withdrawing from the Chemistry course if you are more than half way through. Talk to your tutors. They may be able to help you.
You could do a one year PGCE after a three year Chemistry course and qualify earlier than stopping the BSc and re-starting on a BEd.
You now need to take advice from parents, counsellors at Southampton, course tutors.
Russian wife of British Citizen, doing PGCE, will I get a bursary?
I am interested in the teaching course for adults and would be very grateful for any advice you can give me? | 2019-04-21T11:04:59Z | https://www.thecompleteuniversityguide.co.uk/ask/answer/2874/undergraduate-credits |
Not exactly. Discrepant checksums mean only that the file has changed. As well as data corruption it can mean that file was changed deliberately.
For example: when you have edited and saved a document, the records in data base have changed, or the new records have been added. So you can also use FastSum to identify the list of changed files. It is useful when you need to synchronise a large amount of files between different locations.
For more information about the receiving the changed files list see the Documentation. | 2019-04-24T20:30:38Z | http://www.fastsum.com/support/md5-checksum-utility-faq/checksums-do-not-match.php |
I have graduated and moved to University of Texas at Austin. You can still reach me via emailrudi@robot-learning.de.
Rudolf Lioutikov joined the Intelligent Autonomous System lab on November, 1st 2013 as a Ph.D. student. His research includes imitation-learning, skill learning, motion segmentation and human-robot interaction for non-experts. During his Ph.D., Rudolf worked on the 3rd Hand Project where he developed and evaluated new approaches in the field of semi-autonomous human-robot collaboration tasks. Combined, the developed methods form an imitation learning pipeline.
The Probabilisitic Segmentation (ProbS) method segments initially unlabeled demonstrations are segmented into sequences of movement primitives, while simultaneously learning a library of primitives. ProbS is an Expectation Maximization method, where the E-step computes a new segmentation of the demonstrations given the current model and the M-step learns a new model given the current segmentation. The model is defined as a mixture of primitives. The segmented demonstrations and the learned primitive library are used to induce a Probabilistic Context-Free Grammar for primitive sequencing. The grammar structure is learned using an Markov chain Monte Carlo optimization, where a novel prior based on three Poisson distributions was introduced. The induced grammar serves as an easily comprehensible representation of the capability of a robot with respect to the primitives learned from the demonstrations. The grammar can now be used to generate new sequences of primitives from the library. Finally, the induced grammar is improved through reinforcement learning approaches in order to improve the grammar such that previously unseen tasks can be solved by the grammar and the primitive library.
Before his Ph.D., Rudolf completed his Master Degree in Computer Science at the Technische Universitaet Darmstadt focusing on robotics and machine learning with a minor in bionics. In his masters thesis Rudolf investigated robust and safe policy search methods under the supervision of Gerhard Neumann and Jan Peters. He developed a new policy update approach entitled Information Theoretic Stochastic Optimal Control.
Rudolf is also looks into approaches for anticipatory robot behavior, active learning for human-robot interactions, infusing semantic meaning into learned movement grammars, task and role identification in collaborative human-robot scenarios and robot-assisted learning of human motor skills. Another big interest of Rudolf is the application of machine and robot-learning methods in prosthetic devices. Such intelligent prostheses could improve the adaptation process, the capabilities and the quality of life of the respective person. | 2019-04-21T08:05:51Z | https://www.ias.informatik.tu-darmstadt.de/Member/RudolfLioutikov |

READ BEFORE BIDDING Budget less than $100, maybe a little bit higher but do not waste time sending me a $150+ offer.
Hi, I am looking for someone to build a custom script that will allow me to enter the amount of boxes per item and the size.
This item must also be able to work with all my other plugins and have no conflicts. I must also be able to specify the amount of items fit in each box.
Amount of boxes Amount of items that fit per box (using the cart amount).
Any overflow goes another box.
It should not interfere with products that are already entered. Meaning i do not want all products to all of a sudden stop working because this is installed.
I also need to be able to set an oversize handling fee. So there would be an area that i would just select yes and i would enter a fee of example $12 to be added to the order. I would either automatically add in the shipping price or just add as a seperate cart fee (like above taxes and sub total). I also need this to be based on quantity, example it would add this fee every 1-4 quantity, meaning if they order 5, it would be $12x2.
Just to clarify something, i should be able to setup multiple package sizing and estimated price received back. Like one box is 2x4x5 @ 5lbs and other is 96x4x10" @ 14lbs See screen shot that shows example. You are also required to provide support for any updates.
Who ever wins this i have another project after for custom price matrix. | 2019-04-26T05:14:49Z | https://www.freelancer.com/projects/php/extend-fedex-plugin-functions-for/ |

The American Civil War began in South Carolina on April 12, 1861, when Confederate batteries in Charleston Harbor opened fire on Fort Sumter; the first shots fired in a war that would claim over 600,000 American lives. The State of Connecticut did not falter in its support of the federal government. Over 55,000 young men from Connecticut served in uniform during the war. Connecticut industry supplied the armed forces with firearms from the Colt Firearms Company and many independent contractors produced a plethora of weapons. Approximately 10% of the Connecticut men who served in the war died while in service, over 2,000 of them in battle. Almost 700 Connecticut soldiers died in Confederate prisons. The women of Connecticut stood by their men at war by creating Soldiers Aid Societies. The Hartford Ladies Aid Society was one of the largest in the nation during the war.
The men serving from Connecticut were present at nearly every major engagement of the war from the First Battle of Bull Run to Appomattox. Connecticut regiments fought with distinction at Antietam, Drewry’s Bluff, and Cold Harbor. As with the nation itself, Connecticut’s bloodiest day came on September 17, 1862, at Antietam, Maryland.
The sacrifices of Connecticut men and women can be witnessed firsthand in the collections of the Connecticut Historical Society. View the diary of Sergeant Samuel Grosvenor of the 16th Connecticut Regiment and learn of his trials and suffering during a 7-month imprisonment at Andersonville. Read the words of Major Edward Blake’s family, who were in search of their lost son after his disappearance in battle in Virginia. Witness the affection, hope, and dreams for the future of couples like Frederick Lucas and Jennie Wadhams, or John Best Cuzner and Ellen “Nell” Sperry. These and countless other stories are found in documents in the library of the Connecticut Historical Society.

The 50-level hotel and residential tower will be built for Melbourne's ICD Property, a developer known for its passion for innovative and forward-thinking design.
Woods Bagot Principal, Peter Miglis says the building couldn't exist anywhere else.
"Inspired by New Zealand's extraordinary geology and fauna, this will be a simple, confident building form on the city skyline that also provides a companion to the existing Sky Tower.
"Sightlines to culturally significant landmarks, the height of the streetscape, pedestrian connectivity to key destinations and Auckland's weather have all been carefully considered to create a structure that could only sit within this particular location.
"We see this building, on this site, as an important moment to add a defining piece of architecture to Auckland's cityscape."
Richard Goldie, Director of Peddle Thorp explains that the building's lower level has been designed to fit the future vision for its surrounds in the city.
"Federal Street is already a 'destination' for the public within Auckland's CBD and that will only be enhanced through its transformation into a pedestrian-focussed laneway. A building's character at street level is as important as its impression on the skyline."
The lobby to the hotel is located at the top of a podium, freeing the lower street levels to be highly public focussed. A key feature will be a ground level marketplace offering the finest New Zealand food and beverage. Elevating the 'sky lobby' also gives the public an opportunity to enjoy the building and city from another aspect.
The 180-metre-tall building will occupy a 1600 square metre site at 65 - 71 Federal St, between Victoria and Kingston Streets, just to the north, seaward side of the Sky City complex.
Only a few metres shorter than Auckland's tallest planned development, the Seascape in Customs Street (also designed by Peddle Thorp), the tower will combine retail space, a hotel with more than 200 rooms, investor apartments and owner occupier penthouse suites.
"The building's orientation towards the ocean is a unique gesture that speaks to our place in the Pacific," says Richard Goldie.
The design features the extensive use of timber in its public spaces which again is a strong expression of place.
"Our major civic buildings, the Auckland Museum and Auckland Art Gallery both use timber to stunning effect. It's the material with which we privilege our most significant buildings."
And the winning design is notable for its respect of the Sky Tower.
"The Sky Tower is the primary marker that locates the city centre. Our design respects the Sky Tower, in the way we respect 'first arrivals'. We do this by ensuring our building protects views to the horizon from the Sky Tower's observation deck.
"The brief called for a scheme complying with a floor surface ratio of 13:1, and another at 18.5:1. We recognised that to achieve the higher number we would need to achieve Auckland Council's vision of 'design excellence'.
"Our solution delivers exemplary design combined with public amenity. We believe this kind of thinking is what Aucklanders expect and deserve when it comes to the architecture of our significant buildings," says Richard Goldie.
The building will be green-rated to the highest possible level with an embedded power network.
Parking will all be underground, while above the hotel there will be apartments for rent and lease with the top 15 floors being luxury owner occupier apartments.
The tower will be clad in curtain wall glass - a glazing system with aluminium mesh between the panes of double glazing to improve the building's performance acoustically and structurally.
With open balconies not possible at high levels because of the wind strength, inside conservatory winter gardens with angled façade panels will provide the feel of an outdoor environment.
The development, which is expected to cost around $200 million should be completed by the end of 2022. | 2019-04-19T16:49:21Z | https://wrightcommunications.co.nz/news/woods-bagot-and-peddle-thorp-tower-over-competition/ |

The final list consists of roll number of candidates selected for Indian Administrative Service (IAS). As per the result, Anudeep Durishetty topped the UPSC IAS 2017-18 examination, followed by Anu Kumari, on the second rank. Anu Kumari is topper among all the female candidates too.
As per the result IAS 2017-18 final result the top 25 candidates include 17 men and 8 women. The background of these candidates belongs to Engineering; Sciences; Anthropology; Management; Law; Mathematics; Medical and Commerce. Also, these top 25 candidates have graduated from premier Institutions of country.

The Civil Services Main Examination is the second stage of the Civil Services Exam. Only those candidates who clear IAS Prelims are eligible to sit for IAS Mains. It comprises 9 papers, out of which marks for only 7 are taken into consideration while preparing the merit list & the remaining 2 are merely qualifying in nature.
Each candidate who is eligible for taking the Main Examination has to choose an optional subject, in addition to General Studies & Essay Paper, which are mandatory for all candidates.
The Civil Services Exam is considered to be the mother of all exams. The syllabus is very vast and each part of the syllabus calls for a detailed strategy which may be unique for each candidate. However, Onlinetyari has set out a new initiative wherein we guide IAS aspirants by providing detailed strategies to tackle the IAS Exam.
As per UPSC, the General Studies papers are so designed as to test the general awareness of a candidate on a variety of subjects. These subjects have been so chosen that they would be relevant for a career in the Civil Services. The nature & standard of questions asked would be such that a candidate would need no specialized study to answer them.
The Civil Services Mains exam calls for simply a basic understanding of issues that are relevant to the exam. What this essentially means is that, you have to be aware of the issues that are relevant from the exam point of view and know certain basics around them. Since, there are issues too many, you can not afford to get into the details of all of them. IAS Mains syllabus would come in handy here. Always remember to go through the UPSC Syllabus while you prepare.
Merely remembering facts around the issues is not sufficient. Candidates must be able to analyze those events in context of the larger picture.
All candidates besides knowing and analysing issues must also have the ability to form their own opinion around them. This is very critical to your scores in the General Studies Papers. As a candidate, you would have to look at all issues from a very balanced perspective. You can not afford to have a partisan approach. While framing your opinions, it is always advised that you must weigh both the pros and cons and then come to a conclusion.
How to crack General Studies for IAS Mains?
All those candidates who give relevant, meaningful and succinct answers to the questions asked are likely to score better than the rest. UPSC is very serious around the Word Limits that are predefined for each question. Besides, the number of questions that are asked in the General Studies Paper is also a lot. Thus, there is a time constraint that you need to take care of.
So, remember, as an IAS aspirant, you do not need to have a doctorate in each of the subjects that are a part of IAS Mains syllabus to crack General Studies for IAS Mains. Just make sure you read the question well, write only relevant & succinct answers, present them wonderfully.

What is the objective behind conducting the Main Examination?
According to the UPSC Civil Services Notification, the objective of the Main Examination is to assess the overall intellectual traits and depth of understanding of candidates rather than their information, memory and recall only. This means the candidates are evaluated not only on the basis of the information they possess but also their ability to understand, analyse and relate their knowledge in the context of the questions asked.
What is the Nature & Standard of Questions asked in the IAS Mains Exam?
As regarding the nature and standard of questions asked in the IAS Mains Exam, the general opinion that prevails is that UPSC can ask anything & everything under the sky. This is because they feel that the UPSC Syllabus leaves nothing untouched. However, there is a science behind this and the questions asked in the Civil Services Mains Examination are not so random after all.
There would be two papers for Optional Subjects in IAS Main Examination. One for Paper-I & Paper-II each and both would be 250 marks each. i.e. If you have Sociology as your optional, you'd need to appear for Sociology Paper-I & Paper-II. Same goes for all optional subjects.
The scope of the syllabus for optional subject papers (Paper VI and Paper VII) for IAS Mains is broadly of the honours degree level i.e. one level higher than the Bachelors' degree and lower than the Masters' degree. In the case of Engineering, Medical Science and law, the level corresponds to the bachelors' degree.
Each of the Candidates sitting for UPSC Mains Examination has to choose one optional subject from amongst the list of optionals provided by the Union Public Service Commission. It is not mandatory to choose your Optional Subject, the same as your Graduation/Post-Graduation subject. For example, an Electrical engineer can choose to appear for IAS Mains with Kannada as an Optional Subject, a Doctor can pick History as his/her optional, a humanities student can choose Medical Science if he so likes.
Each of these Optional Subjects comes with its own detailed syllabus.

Rodriguez’s murder topped a spectacularly violent week, in which victims in public thoroughfares were shot during peak business hours, businesses were firebombed and the bodies were dumped with intimidating messages in public places.
El Diario de Juarez journalist Armando Rodriguez Carreon was well-known for countless stories about gangland killings in his hometown of Ciudad Juarez, Chihuahua. For years, the 40-year-old police beat reporter tirelessly published pieces about the latest executions in a violence-torn city.
Rodriguez launched his journalistic career as a technician and photographer for the Ciudad Juarez Channel 44 television station before moving into print during the early 1990s. His newspaper career closely paralleled the violent rise of the Juarez drug cartel and the women’s slayings that became known worldwide as femicides. Popularly known as “El Choco,” Rodriguez was among the first reporters to write about the discoveries of raped and slain women on the outskirts of Ciudad Juarez.
Rodriguez’s stories, which relied a lot on police sources and often did not implicate any particular suspects, were characterized by an almost matter-of-fact quality that kept to the narrative even as violence kept escalating. On Thursday morning, Nov. 13, Rodriguez became a victim himself when he was shot outside his home by a gunman who reportedly fled in a waiting car.
No possible motive for the homicide was publicly disclosed, but it was reported that Rodriguez received a text threat on his cell-phone earlier this year. His killing occurred one week to the day that a severed human head was discovered at a monument to journalists in Ciudad Juarez.
Local media, government officials and Mexican and international journalist organizations quickly condemned Rodriguez’s killing, which carried the trademark of organized crime.
Numerous public commentaries about the murder were posted on news websites in Ciudad Juarez and neighboring El Paso. The Rodriguez slaying was covered on the Nov. 13 prime-time newscast of the U.S.-based Spanish language television network Univision, which reaches millions of viewers.
Rodriguez’s murder topped a spectacularly violent week in Ciudad Juarez and the state capital of Chihuahua City four hours down the highway to the south. Incidents included the gunning down of victims in public thoroughfares during peak business hours, the firebombing of businesses and the dumping of murdered bodies with intimidating messages in public places.
The Rodriguez murder also came amid a new wave of threats and pressures against the Ciudad Juarez press. For instance, CEPET reported that the Ciudad Juarez daily El Mexicano was the target of intimidation by individuals purporting to be agents of the Chihuahua state attorney general’s office last week.
According to CEPET, a state police officer identified as “Perez” and accompanied by other men in official vehicles strolled into the newspaper’s office Nov. 4 and demanded to interrogate columnist Mario Hector Silva about sources the writer used in a story. When informed that Silva was not on the premises, the officers allegedly grew angry, threatened other employees and threw a photographer’s camera in the trash.
With the Rodriguez killing, at least six journalists have been murdered in Mexico this year so far. Other victims include Oaxaca radio announcers Teresa Bautista Merino and Felicitas Martinez Sanchez, Tabasco radio man Alejandro Zenon Fonseca Estrada, Michoacan newspaper director Miguel Villagomez Valle, and Chihuahua writer David Garcia Monroy.
An international observer mission spearheaded by the Committee to Protect Journalists, Article 19, Open Society Institute and other press advocacy organizations traveled to Mexico this year to investigate conditions confronting journalists. Despite legal reforms, the mission concluded that Mexican journalists are in dire circumstances due to violence, impunity and governmental indifference.
Most of the 2008 journalist murders, as well as earlier cases like the 2006 murder of U.S. journalist Brad Will in Oaxaca, remain unsolved and unpunished. In a statement issued on November 11, Will’s family and lawyer took strong issue with the contention of the Office of the Federal Attorney General (PGR) that the documentarian’s killers are in custody.
Criticizing the arrests of anti-government activists for the murder, the Will family said the PGR ignored forensic evidence and eyewitness accounts that point to pro-government paramilitaries and public officials as the probable killers.
Only hours after Armando Rodriguez was murdered, the PGR informed the Mexican media that the same special unit assigned to investigate the Will homicide was looking into the killing of the Ciudad Juarez journalist.

Best Friend just called to ask if I was cold. He was still stuck on the weather which possibly meant he was stuck with that mood. I played it safe. I was always cold, writes Upala Sen.
Best Friend left on an official trip for an “indefinite period”. Now he is the sort who starts feeling homesick the moment he steps out of south Delhi. So when he called to enquire about the weather “back home” (he had been away for two days) I decided to indulge him.
The hot dude was away, so the mercury had plummeted in grief — I thought he could do with some extra niceness. Response: Grunt. I dropped the cute act and then asked him matter-of-factly if he had reached home. What I meant was, had he left office? But no sooner were the words out of my mouth than he bit my head off. “This is not home. This is a house, just a guest house.” Ouch! What did I say?
Mercifully for my self-esteem bbsonline.org says that the words children use are words children hear, and not so much the words they prefer. Point to be noted.
Likewise, I would get confused between home and house.
According to mtannoyances.com (the full name is mother tongue annoyances) home is “anywhere you live -- your home may be a mobile home or an igloo” whereas, a house is “a physical structure with walls and a roof and a door”. I would think the difference goes deeper, where words lose their efficacy.
The other day we were at a photoshoot. The model was friendly and as she wielded those makeup brushes with Van Gogian élan we chatted. “I am from New York,” she told us. It sounded crisp and smart and…to the point, 'Nu York' (as she put it) or for that matter New Delhi or Bombay. Take a peek into wordlab.com, it is full of exotic place names. And to think whenever I was asked where I was from I had to say Bandel. No, I have no problems owning up that I am a small-towner, but the name of my small town is undeniably a phonetic horror.
So sometimes I mentioned the nearest city, at other times the state, and for the really really insistent I took a lesson in map pointing before I gave out the name. Till one day, for a change, someone asked me what my home town was like. And that got me thinking. Let's see: birthday parties with oily chips and return gifts, a magnolia tree outside my room, a-rupee-a-ride cycle rickshaws, early morning squatters dotting the Hooghly… Bandel was interminable childhood, certainly not worth sacrificing at the altar of phonetics. Besides, as per msgboard.snopes.com there are people who live in places called Gayville and Bitsch.
We had shifted house five times when we were in Bandel. Come to think of it they were all homes.
Some years back I was taking the Blueline from Tughlagabad to Dwarka, when a friend called. I had just moved to the city and was still feeling unsettled. And when she hung up abruptly with a “there’s someone at the door” it occurred to me that here I had no door of my own.
I never mixed up those words again. And soon after I moved into a home. | 2019-04-22T04:38:20Z | https://www.hindustantimes.com/india/it-is-real-cold-outside-my-friend/story-4By15NKIe9YrEW7j0wvPnI.html |

In the mid 1980s the Office of Public Archaeology excavated a series of sites in Clear Creek Canyon in central Utah in advance of I-70 construction. A tip by a local resident resulted in the discovery and subsequent complete excavation of a massive Fremont Village, later labeled Five Finger Ridge. In addition, excavators sampled or fully excavated a series of shelters and other residential Fremont sites in the canyon. The abundance of new data and rich artifact yield led directly to the establishment of Fremont Indian State Park across the canyon. This book relates the history of this work and presents the findings of the research.

Minergate, one of the largest multi-currency mining pools, has recently added the Ethereum mining feature to its mining client.
The main idea behind Minergate is the ease of use and approachability for amateur miners, without any associated drawbacks for professionals. Variable difficulty, a defining feature of the pool, adapts the difficulty to the power of a user’s CPU/GPU, which allows for efficient mining even on some weaker equipment.
Minergate was launched in 2014 by a team of cryptocurrency enthusiasts. It consists of more than 100,000 active users mining a number of cryptocurrencies - Monero, Bytecoin, Bitcoin, and now Ethereum.
Solo miners and pools alike have been mining Ethereum since the generation of its Genesis block on 30 July 2015. The ever-growing popularity of the coin has reached an unprecedented height, when it hit $1B market capitalization in March 2016.
It is no wonder that there are many people out there who would like to join in on the profits from the nascent industry: the total hashrate of Ethereum network is estimated to be 2.4TH/s and growing, with most of that amount spread across several major pools.
As it was with Bitcoin, the popularity of the cryptocurrency is creating nigh-impregnable barriers to entry for independent non-professional miners.
Even now, the GeForce GTX 960, one of the most popular GPUs, would have to mine Ethereum for about 5 months before it just breaks even, and the difficulty is only expected to increase.
What that means is that the focus will gradually shift towards mining pools, which allow their members to join resources and thus increase the predictability of the gains, as opposed to relying on luck while mining solo.
It is for that reason that the pool’s GUI miner has been one of the most simple to use in the industry, with a single-click mining feature.
The pool’s developers kept the same idea of accessibility in mind during the implementation of Ethereum mining.
Cointelegraph talked to Claude Lecomte, Minergate`s CEO, about the mining industry and Minergate’s new features.
According to Lecomte, Minergate has a 1-click GUI miner that eliminates the barriers for entering the mining world. Minergate software doesn’t require configuring the system or studying tutorials. The user downloads the app and clicks “start mining”.
This is important as many users don’t know how to deal with console miners, but still potentially have significant mining power. In the case of Ethereum, they are often gamers that usually have powerful graphic cards.
Lecomte considers Ethereum “one of the most advanced technologies nowadays.” He considers the secret to its success to be the fact that it isn’t positioned as “modern cryptocurrency” with some “killer features”. It is a blockchain platform that allows for creating value added applications on top of it.
Although Minergate’s Ethereum mining feature is targeted to amateur miners, professional miners can successfully connect and efficiently mine on the pool, using console miners, like ethminer, the official Ethereum mining client.
Now that Minergate has added Ethereum to their 1-click GUI miner, it is possible to start mining in a couple of seconds and make profits mining on ordinary computers.
When it comes to mining pools, a question is often raised about their intrinsic discrepancy with the core philosophy of any cryptocurrency: decentralization. By joining hashrates in massive amounts, pools centralize power, and thus endanger the security of the entire network.
Lecomte believes market laws will help to mitigate this threat by providing a better market supply for the growing demand.
Lecomte notes that the market is changing rapidly, introducing cryptocurrencies with various underlying algorithms. The protocols can sometimes be improved even in existing coins, which usually affects mining. Still, MinerGate’s job will be focused on driving adoption for the promising technologies by creating the most comprehensive mining services on the market. | 2019-04-19T06:23:52Z | https://cointelegraph.com/news/ethereum-mining-made-possible-on-weak-pcs |

While my law practice in Atlanta is focused on representing people who are seriously injured when they are hit by commercial trucks and buses, I get a lot of calls from truck drivers all over the country who are concerned about employers requiring them to drive unsafe equipment or to drive beyond their legal hours of service.
Partly to save myself some time on the phone, below the break is a copy of 49 US Code, Section 1536.
I don’t personally handle these matters. If you are a truck driver concerned about such issues, I suggest that you read this post, then contact Truckers Justice Center , 900 West 128th Street, Suite 104, Burnsville, MN 55337, Telephone 952.224.9166, Fax 678.791.1728.

Apr 27 – Opening Day!
4-6 – Tee Ball – Saturdays only, starting at 8:30am. We will attempt to schedule make up games on Sundays. This is an introduction to baseball fundamentals—throwing, catching and hitting. Game days are split between practice as a team and a short game afterwards against another league team.
9-10 – Baseball- Tuesday and Fridays, 2 games per week. This is live position play baseball.
11-12 – Baseball- As we have done in the past three seasons, this group will play in the Upper Chesapeake Baseball Recreation League. This league is run out of the Fallston program. Last year, we had 5 Bel Air teams that played in this league. There are 2 games per week; Tuesday AND Thursday.
13-15 – Baseball- The 13-15 age group plays in the Central Harford Baseball League. Bel Air has typically been able to provide 2-3 teams in this league. Not only will the Bel Air teams play each other, but also against other area rec councils as well. If you are a Sophomore or older playing on your high school's JV baseball team, you will not be eligible to play in this league. In addition, players who play in the spring/summer 2018 on a Club, Tournament, or similar team are not permitted to play. Typically games are played twice each week on Mondays and Wednesdays. Occasionally teams will play on a Sunday night at 6pm in lieu of a Monday game.
There are two different ways to register for travel baseball.
Register directly for your age group for travel try outs – this is for returning players or new, who are not interested in playing rec. If you’re not selected for the team, you still have the option to play rec, and registration fees will transfer.
Register for your age group in rec – this is for the rec player who is potentially interested in trying out. A coach will reach out (and you can reach out too – contacts HERE) and answer any questions you may have. If you are selected for the team, your registration fees will transfer.
If you’re in the 13U-17U age groups, those teams operate on a different schedule to not conflict with H.S. Baseball. You will receive information about registration directly from your coach. | 2019-04-26T13:41:14Z | http://belairrec-baseball.assn.la/Page.asp?n=93218&org=BELAIRREC-BASEBALL |
Macrolithic technologies for grinding, pounding and otherwise pulverising foodstuffs have their origins in the very earliest of percussive technologies: it is well established that non-human primates use stones in extractive foraging, thus it requires no great leap of the imagination to connect our earliest hominid forebears with this technology as well, and indeed the morphology of the earliest stone tools suggests that they would function suitably as plant-processing tools. And yet ‘grindstones’ (to use a shorthand term) are widespread among human societies even today, particularly in small-scale agricultural groups, to whom the grindstone is an essential domestic object, situated alongside the pot, the spoon and the fire as objects without which we simply cannot do. Were it not for a grindstone, many families in sub-Saharan Africa, for instance, would not eat.
The importance of these objects appears to have been constant: in southern Africa, grindstones are ubiquitous on hunter-gatherer sites, and yet paradoxically we know very little about them. Their very ubiquity has rendered them invisible and in archaeology we see them used solely as proxies: they have been variously (and contradictorally) cited in the literature as evidence of behavioural modernity, domestic presence on site, or presence on site of domesticates. My doctoral research aims to interrogate these neglected yet important objects, focussing on items from a 40,000 year occupational sequence at the rockshelter of Ha Makotoko in western Lesotho (southern Africa), using functional analysis (residues and usewear) as well as techno-typological research, in order to understand their full biographies and place in human lifeways. I argue that the grindstone is the most important object to our understanding of the interplay between the ‘gathered’ and the ‘gatherer’.
An essential component of this analysis is experimental work and ethnoarchaeology: since we know so little about hunter-gatherer grindstones, I wished to take advantage of the long tradition of agricultural grindstone use maintained in Lesotho to the present day. While bearing in mind questions regarding uniformitarian assumption, there appear to be enough similarities between the use globally and historically of grindstones to warrant a comparison. Creating an experimental suite of grindstones (overseeing every step from raw material provisioning through to use and discard) with the advice and guidance of local Basotho women, I would be able then to compare these examples with the morphologically different archaeological sample from the same geographical region. I based my plan for fieldwork on previous research in the same region, which had both answered and provoked questions on contemporary economic use of gathered resources (primarily plants).
Although in principle an uncomplicated task, in reality issues of course arouse: other components of my doctoral work (primarily residue analysis of archaeological grindstones) necessitated my presence in the laboratory in Oxford, and I was unable to spend more than six weeks on fieldwork, which was not long enough to compile the corpus of experimental examples. I was extremely fortunate in finding an excellent Mosotho research assistant, Ms Soldart Khantsi (a recent graduate of the cultural heritage studies programme at the National University of Lesotho) who agreed to help me. Following several months in which I devised a suitable programme of experiments, aided by Soldart’s feedback, Soldart then travelled to her home village along the Sebapala river in the mountains of south-western Lesotho and began to create experimental grindstones with the input of local women (who use grindstones themselves every day of their lives) on local raw materials. Soldart documented her work audiovisually and with written notes, and at the beginning of April 2014 I was able to travel to Lesotho to finish up the experimental work and begin in-situ analysis.
Based initially in the university town of Roma, western Lesotho, I travelled south to Quthing district: the unavailability of four-wheel-drive vehicles for rental within Lesotho made things more difficult and so it was that I travelled on dirt roads, up hairpin bends and into the mountains. Arriving with Soldart in her village, Sekhutlong-sa-Lineo, I proceeded to analyse the experimental corpus with a USB microscope, DSLR camera and residue swabs. I was able to see grindstone use in action, observing the way the whole body is used in a skilled and learned way to process various plant materials: to use the language of André Leroi-Gourhan (following Marcel Mauss) the actions and gestures that go to make up the techniques of the body in a societally specific way. Although the techniques of grindstone use are widespread within Lesotho, use in the future will probably be limited due to the advent of mechanised grinders, yet until now the behaviours of use have not been codified either in the academic or lay communities, making the documentation of this living heritage both a privilege and a unique opportunity.
Following the stay in Sekhutlong, once back in Roma, I conducted some further experiments fashioning some grindstones more morphologically similar to those found at Ha Makotoko, in order to compare the bodily actions involved: it emerges that hunter-gatherer style grindstones are unsuitable for the kind of high-intensity and high-efficiency grinding permitted by the Basotho-style variants which much provoke questions as to their use and place in hunter-gatherer lifeways. The residue component of my DPhil is designed to explore questions based on these experimentally generated predictions and is ongoing. At this stage I can say that it offers tentative support for the predictions: grinding of wild grasses is established in the Middle Stone Age at Ha Makotoko, but this is relatively low-intensity in nature, unlike contemporary processing of domesticates (primarily maize and sorghum).
Apart from creating the experimental corpus, I was also able to collect plant reference material from the area surrounding Ha Makotoko and from Kirstenbosch Botanical Gardens in Cape Town: these reference specimens are essential in order to determine the uses of archaeological grindstones, since residue work is carried out on a morphological basis. Although the area around Ha Makotoko has been substantially diminished by the completion of the Metolong Dam (which has flooded the rockshelter itself, ending use of the cave which has lasted over 40,000 years and into the present day) it was possible to obtain samples of a number of edible geophytes. Samples obtained from Kirstenbosch broaden my collection still further as do those kindly provided by a number of colleagues.
Without funding from the Horniman Award, none of this would have been possible. Travel alone to southern Africa is prohibitively expensive, but thanks to the RAI I was able to comprehensively complete the fieldwork necessary for my DPhil: the experimental work provides a necessary anchor for the residue and usewear analysis, allowing the generation of predictions which the functional analysis can then verify.
I believe that this work will enable me to make a substantial contribution to our understanding of hunter-gatherer lifeways in southern Africa, which for so long has been biased towards the ‘hunted’ end of the spectrum at the expense of the ‘gathered’, a state which is at odds with our understanding of contemporary and historically known hunter-gatherer groups. My DPhil is the first to examine botanical residues of lithic technology in Lesotho, and very much in a minority in southern Africa more generally. It is also among the first to examine grindstone technology (from a functional perspective) within sub-Saharan Africa, which I believe is a key component of the ‘gathered’ part of this lifeway. The coupling of relatively new microresidue techniques in an understudied area, on a very poorly understood class of material culture, is already overturning our understandings of hunter-gatherer lifeways, and the experimental component of this project is an essential part of this.
The experimental material is not the only contribution however: the living (often termed ‘intangible’) heritage of daily life in Lesotho and other areas globally is threatened by large scale development and extractive resource projects as well as increased globalisation. Introduction of mechanised processing increasingly diminishes the need for the ancient craft of grindstone use. While it is hoped that this may make life easier for the women who use grindstones today, as use of this technology diminishes (catalysed also by projects which render raw material sources inaccessible – grindstones cannot be obtained from riverbeds 60m under water) so too do the stories, traditions and beliefs that accompany it. Processing and knowledge of wild plants for medicine and food will also decrease and a rich (and far from intangible) part of heritage will be lost. Documenting this heritage while it is still relatively vibrant will not compensate for this loss, but accessibly archiving for both the source communities and academia, can mitigate it to a certain extent. | 2019-04-18T19:22:11Z | https://therai.org.uk/awards/past-awards/emslie-horniman-award-luiseach-nic-eoin |

It is a common feeling among many people: The amount of money one has determines the level of happiness, confidence or energy that person has. That is, with enough or so much money, a person generally tends to be upbeat, gregarious and emotionally stable. And the less money one has, the more depressed, aloof and irritable that person becomes. Well, at least, from experience, this seems to hold true 8 out of 10 times, although there are a few “money-less” people we know who remain content with their lot. But they are the rare exceptions.
The National Foundation for Credit Counselling in the US found out that a staggering 79% of people say financial worries make them lose sleep, more than other concerns such as their marriages, kids or job stability. Sleepless people certainly make for unhappy families. That survey just confirmed our previous statistic.
Money, of course, is not the true source of happiness or contentment. Financial confidence or power comes from having understood the dynamics of financial principles and the steps by which they can be harnessed for our own benefit. Simply said: Financially powerful individuals have the cunning ability to see and know what needs to be done to turn money to their advantage.
There are those who may have gotten so much money, like lottery winners, who never had the slightest idea as to how to manage money and simply go about spending or even investing in some deals but do not know exactly how the entire process of maintaining financial power works. And so these people often end up where they were before, penniless and powerless.
But there are a few tips to help the ordinary person to gain a reasonable amount of power over money.
Habits influence a major part of how we handle money. What we learned from our homes and from early schooling enhanced or diminished our capacity to make money work for us. Many of us often fall into a financial trap, such as overspending or borrowing to buy luxuries, because we inherited the tendency from somewhere in our past or in our immediate environment. The shame or guilt that arises from falling over and over again into the same trap builds up and yet we feel powerless to cut the cycle.
Forgiving ourselves for our inadequacies can lead us to ultimately overcome a bad habit and the guilt that comes with it. Deal with each unproductive habit one at a time. Tell yourself that the shame or guilt it brings Is worse than the actual burden of not having money and feeling powerless. Why carry so much weight emotionally and financially? Solving your financial status will also bring emotional relief.
Grab the power by controlling money like it were a slave or tool that it is. If it means getting a menial job so you can pay debts, so be it.
As we said, our past determines how we deal with money. There is a pattern in everything that we do: whether in cooking a favourite recipe, going on a vacation or even reading a book. Some prefer to read a real book and not an ebook. Others enjoy doing it in a hammock or on an easy chair. And some read a chapter a day; others finish a book in one sitting. So with how we use money. Some get enough joy gambling a small amount of money regularly. Others gamble away their fortunes.
Keep a journal on how you spend money and learn more about yourself than you ever did before. You might find yourself behaving as if you were your mother or father who had certain peculair habits with regard to money. Or, you may have your own unique patterns hard to decipher where you got it but may have arisen during an extremely stressful time in your life. Just as some people started drinking or smoking during a traumatic moment in their past, you could have developed the habit of buying on credit during a time when you felt emotionally down or powerless. Or simply envious of your friend or neighbor.
Those “emotional money triggers” are, in general, within your power to eradicate or change to benefit you financially.
When everything else fails, you might get some relief from a professional financial adviser. Since we already noticed that our financial habits are closely tied to our emotional conditions, it should convince you to get a financial counsellor, particularly one who understands the psychological motivations that push us to do what we do with our money.
Positive money habits do not come by accidents. Children of Chinese businesspeople have to work during summer vacation and derive precious training not just in business management, in general, but in essentially appreciating the real value of money through how it is earned and how it is invested back into a profitable venture.
Business people are also good sources of advice, especially if you plan to go into business. The simple joy of being debt-free and having control over your budget can be gained from those who have had the discipline of making money grow or, in other words, building wealth.
Creating wealth starts from developing the right money habits. It is never too late to start gaining power over your own life through proper money control.

A jaundiced, dying man was brought to her on a stretcher. It was his last wish that he meet with her and be blessed by her gracious presence. "A lot of artists would not consent to meeting with a dying man," she said, "but I've been through enough in my life that I can relate to people very well. I'm not tough. I'm strong." In her case, tough describes a trait, strong depicts a virtue.
Who is this woman who is the object of a dying man's final request? And what has she lived through that has given her such strength?
Eilleen Regina Edwards was born on August 28, 1965, in Windsor, Ontario. Her parents divorced when she was just a toddler. Her mother, Sharon, then took Eilleen and the older daughter to live in Timmins, Ontario. There, in this poor mining town about 250 miles north of Toronto, she married an Ojibwa Indian, a father of two boys. The new family of six was reduced to five when Eilleen's older sister left home at 14. Eilleen thus became, in her words, "the older sister by default."
The family experienced excruciating poverty and the children learned painfully well what it means to be hungry. Eilleen would take a mustard sandwich to school for lunch. Her indigence made her feel embarrassed and isolated.
Tragedy struck when Eilleen was 21. Her mother and stepfather were killed in a head-on collision with a logging truck. The grim and numbing accident left Eilleen with custody of her two teenage siblings and the responsibility for raising them.
Catholic poet Thomas Traherne asserted, "A Christian is an oak flourishing in winter." The adversity surrounding Eilleen's life made her strong. She abandoned her first name for the Ojibwa word Shania, which means "I'm on my way." She retained her stepfather's surname, Twain. In this way, she took the name by which her millions of fans know her Shania Twain.
She was indeed "on her way." Shania Twain has become one of the most successful female singers in history. She is the first woman to have consecutive albums sell more than 10 million copies in the United States. She has won innumerable awards including the Country Music Association's "Entertainer of the Year" and a Grammy Award in 1999. She was also named the "Most Beautiful Canadian Woman of the Century."
Shania has not allowed her fame and wealth to obscure her past hardships or lead her to ignore the hardships of others. Her compassion for others is as strong as she is strong as an individual. During some of her singing tours, she donates proceeds from each of her concerts to local charities that aid hungry children. "My goal," she states, "is to save kids the humiliation, the anguish of feeling inferior." Hers is the compassion that is worthy of the approbation of a St. Augustine. The Bishop of Hippo wrote in his Confessions: "Although he that grieves with the grief-stricken is to be commended for his work of charity, yet the man who is fraternally compassionate would prefer to find nothing in others to need his compassion."
In helping to reverse the misfortunes of others, Shania is doing through music what Charles Dickens did through his novels. Her compassion for hungry children has not abated because, as she tells us, "I was that hungry kid."
Shania Twain's most personal song is "God Bless the Child," and she has pledged all royalties it earns to children's charities. The original title of the song was less catchy, though more instructive of its message: "Hallelujah, God Bless the Child Who Suffers."
The term compassion is commonly misinterpreted in our society to mean pity. The compassionate person, as the word indicates, suffers with the suffering person. And more than that, the compassionate person suffers for the suffering person. Pity causes a person to distance himself from the sufferer. There is no moral union between the one who pities and the object of his pity. Consequently, pity is inclined to end suffering by removing the sufferer. Compassion intuitively understands the redeeming value of suffering.
Marie Antoinette, born and raised with an aristocrat's indifference toward the plight of her indigent neighbors, suggested that they "eat cake" when informed that they had no bread. Compassion is formed in the real and heartrending experiences of deprivation. Shania Twain's adversity formed her compassion and her strength, and it is to her honor and credit that it retains priority in her heart far above all the trappings of her extraordinary success.

Love and passion are emotions we all want to feel with someone else. Human beings are social animals who crave affection and the feeling of being special to someone else.
No matter how many times love hurts us, we still keep looking for more.
With the ending of the old year and the beginning of a new one, it is time to leave any and all heartache and mistakes in the past and prepare yourself for a fresh romance.
Astrologers predict that 2018 will be a good year for love all around. Here are the signs and people you’ll need to watch out for based on your birth month.
People around you admire your ambition and hard work but the person you’ll fall for in 2018 will serve to remind you that there is more to life than work. They’ll do everything they can to help you achieve your goals but they will also make you relax and care for yourself.
This romance will come as a surprise because you’ll fall for a person you’ve already known for quite some time but haven’t viewed in that way till now. They’ll arouse your interest in such a relaxed manner that you won’t realize it till it hits you. They’ll love you for your energy and light but will also help you by encouraging you to express yourself better and take risks at times.
After a long time, you’ll meet someone who will want to make you happy. With them, you’ll never have to disregard your own needs like you’ve been doing all this while. This person will want to look after you and do whatever brings you joy without expecting any rewards. You’ll fall for them hard and fast.
You’ve always been quite self-aware and sure of your opinions. This intimidates people but now you’ll meet someone who will make you feel like you don’t have to tone yourself down for their sake. Earlier you might have felt a little apprehensive about the way you are always ready to express yourself honestly and at time bluntly but this person will see this as one of your best qualities.
You’ve always been someone who’s determined, dedicated and always up and about. Your bucket list is huge and you are constantly traveling. But you need an anchor and in 2018 you’ll meet the person who will help you become grounded. Earlier you’ve always had a feeling that your partner is holding you back from doing your best but now the person you’ll meet will make it seem possible to achieve great things while settling down at the same time.
The upcoming year will give you the relationship you’ve dreamed of for a long time. You’ll meet someone kind and caring who never loses your interest or makes you feel restless. This person will be understanding enough to know that underneath all your humor, you’re incredibly vulnerable. They’ll make you feel comfortable enough to open up to them about anything and everything. | 2019-04-24T10:06:16Z | https://themindsjournal.com/the-romance-waiting-for-you-2018/ |
The International Police Motor Corporation (IPMC) organises annually the International Police Motor Rally. Each year, the motor rally takes place in a different European country and city and all those who enjoy police motor sports for example; Policemen/women, the Gendarmes, Customs Officials, the Judicial Branch, the National Guard, the Border Police, the Military Police, the Guardia Civil, the Carabinieri, and all executive officials from various countries, provinces, communities and members of the police sports organisations are warmly welcome to participate.
Originally, when founded in 1930, only executive officials who owned their own automobiles were allowed to take part at the police motor rally.
From 1936-1951, World War II thwarted the meeting of these European executive officials who owned their own automobiles and motorcycles. In 1952, the Austrian police had enough courage to organise the revival of the meeting which had been formerly been banned in 1934. 600 police from 6 nations drove under great strain to Salzburg and reminded the colleagues of the idea founded in Hamburg in 1930; that ideas, friendships, contacts, and the everyday life interest in the lives of the police and their families should be shared across all borders, if only to forget for a few short hours; in order to give fresh impetus.
If we look at the 60 international police motor rallies in nearly 80 years, we can see that usually around 1.000 executive officials and their families met together. By now one should, dear reader and dear colleague, have asked oneself - why haven't I joined in yet!?
A membership or members subscription, which is common in other organisations and clubs, is not required by the IPMC for taking part at a rally. The International Police Motor Corporation does not compete with other private police organisations. Often, the IPMC motor rallies are organised together with other police organisations. The IPMC is politically neutral and completely independent from other police organisations.
Get your announcement for the next meeting and join us with your family for the next IPMC motor rally! We would be more than happy to welcome you at the next police motor rally. | 2019-04-24T20:46:48Z | https://www.ipmc.org/index.php/en/motor-rallies |

As a result, 3P UK stocks the very widest range of rainwater harvesting filters and components, water butts and stormwater treatment devices in the UK. 3P supplies everything needed for domestic or commercial rainwater harvesting (RWH) systems, except underground tanks. In particular, 3P UK has developed a variety of sophisticated white-label controllers. These Pump Controllers,built and programmed at the 3P base in Cardigan, are used in RWH and pressure boosting applications. Many of these systems use our Steelpumps for pumps, class leading Automatic and Manual steel bodied pumps.
For over a decade 3P has developed a range of treatment products for stormwater management. These treatment devices are designed for deployment within a SuDS treatment train. These products include fully DiBT-approved (and the lesser NJDEP/NJCAT approved) storm water filtration systems. These treatment train devices are sold via Lead Partners in the UK and Ireland. The SuDS water quality treatment sector is undergoing great changes. These surface water runoff Proprietary Treatment Devices form part of the SuDS treatment train.
3P Technik also offer to trade, a continually growing range of garden water butts and accessories, all shipped from the 3P UK base in Wales. These are increasingly used as SuDS planters, in attenuation schemes.

Tehran, Iran, June 23, 2018 - Saber Kazemi served up a treat and sent the home fans wild to help Iran secure another VNL win and send Bulgaria crashing 3-1 (25-22 25-15 23-25 25-14).
Kazemi hit four aces in his total of 14 points and with Saman Faezi and Morteza Sharifi hitting 16 a piece, the Iranians had enough healthy contributions from all over the court to shoot down a Bulgarian side who came through a physically testing five set match with Germany on Friday.
This deserved victory in front of the fanatical supporters means Igor Kolakovic’s side go into their final game against Germany tomorrow with a 6-8 record in the VNL.
Another triumph could see them finish in the top half of the table, a decent return for a side who were pitted against some of the best volleyball sides on the planet but have won plenty of plaudits with some courageous displays.
Bulgaria were flattened in the second and fourth sets but showed signs of their quality in a dramatic comeback in the third.
Rozalin Penchev finished with 16 points while Nikolay Uchikov scored 13 but it wasn’t enough.
The Iranian’s power game - they finished with 53 -46 in the spike count while they also out-blocked and out-served the Europeans who now have a record of 5-9 going into the final day of action ahead of the finals in Lille at the start of July.
Fired up by the pumping home atmosphere, Iran raced out of the blocks and stormed ahead 10-3 and although Bulgaria staged a creditable comeback with the score at 24-21, the writing was on the wall for Konstantino Plamen’s team.
Kazemi saw one spike blocked at the net but it was left to the excellent Faezi to seal with the deal with his sixth point of the set.
You could see the confidence surging through the Iranian ranks and not before long, they had 10 set points in the bag and although the first was saved, a wild serve from Uchikov saw Kolakovic’s men slump 2-0 down and on their way to another straight-sets defeat.
Credit to the Bulgarians though. Penchev was able to galvanize the team in a razor-tight third set which could have gone either way with the scores locked at 22-22.
Valentin Bratoev served long and Iran were suddenly 23-22 ahead but it was left to Penchev to fire home the winner and give the Bulgarians the set their display deserved.
It was Iran though who put their foot on the gas in the fourth and it was fitting that a Kazemi ace, his third of the game, sealed a win which sent their devoted fans home very happy. | 2019-04-25T08:30:26Z | http://www.volleyball.world/en/vnl/news/kazemi-serves-up-something-special-for-home?id=76273 |
It was pretty easy to grow potatoes and lots of fun for the kids to dig them up.
I started with some organic, store bought potatoes in various colors.
I cut them into small chunks, making sure each piece had at least one potato "eye" - this is where the new potato will sprout.
I let them sit out over night so that the skin developed a hard film before planting.
Then we planted them in our small planter, which is about two feet deep. I layered them (although I think the deeper ones didn't sprout.) And then watered them weekly.
I read online that you can dig for them when the shoots reach a few feet high for small potatoes or dig for them once the shoots have started to die for larger potatoes.
I let them grow and grow for seven months (I think?) until the first shoot started to yellow.
Then we began to dig. It was like digging for buried treasure. We had no idea how many we would find or how big they would be.
This is our harvest. Six very small potatoes!! But I'm still really proud of them.
Here they are next to my sunglasses so you can see just how small they are!

The Republican presidential candidate, taking a turn on the world stage, called London's problems with Olympic Games preparation "disconcerting." That prompted Cameron to retort Thursday that doubters would "see beyond doubt that Britain can deliver." And London Mayor Boris Johnson told tens of thousands gathered in Hyde Park: "There's a guy called Mitt Romney who wants to know if we are ready. Are we ready? Yes we are!"
A one-term Massachusetts governor with limited foreign policy experience, he is hoping to show voters back home he is ready to represent the U.S. strongly and smoothly at a time of global economic turmoil and security troubles. He also wants to emphasize his own tenure running the 2002 Winter Games in Salt Lake City by attending this year's opening ceremonies. And he hopes to draw subtle contrasts with Obama. | 2019-04-22T06:03:57Z | https://www.lubbockonline.com/world/2012-07-27/romn-ey-stirs-olympic-tiff-european-tour-begins |

Kimiko Domoto-Reilly, MD, is a neurologist in the UW Memory and Brain Wellness Center, where she diagnoses and treats people with neurodegenerative diseases. She has expertise in frontotemporal degeneration spectrum diseases (FTD), including primary progressive aphasia and the behavioral variant of FTD. In collaboration with ADRC researchers, she studies cases of familial cases of autosomal dominantly-inherited neurodegenerative diseases, in order to better understand the factors influencing variation in age of onset, genetic penetrance, and disease progression.
As a faculty researcher on the UW Integrated Brain Imaging Center, she works to develop tau positron emission tomography (tau PET) imaging as a research tool for understanding the role of tau proteins in Alzheimer's disease and FTD. She also leads two clinical trials at the UW: the AVID autopsy study and the Imaging Dementia — Evidence for Amyloid Scanning (IDEAS) Study, which is assessing the clinical usefulness and impact on patient-oriented outcomes of a brain amyloid PET scan that detects amyloid plaques, a core feature of Alzheimer’s disease, in patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) or dementia of uncertain cause.
Dr. Domoto-Reilly also leads the ADRC Outreach, Recruitment, & Education Core's team efforts to raise awareness of Alzheimer’s disease and provide relevant education to community members, particularly to local and reservation-dwelling American Indians. | 2019-04-24T16:42:21Z | http://depts.washington.edu/mbwc/about/profile/kimiko-domoto-reilly |

The university campus was not the real reason as to why I went to Bunkyo, but rather the roller coaster at LaQua which ranks 9th on the 10 tallest steel roller coasters in the world. Wiki already warned me that it is standing but not operating, but I went nonetheless, stared at it, and regret not having tried it while it was still operational. Maybe in the future it would once again be open to the public. What makes it stand out is that section that goes through a wall of LaQua. Before I reached this part of Bunkyo, though, I spent around an hour taking a stroll at the University of Tokyo, as though I belonged.
The campus would seem boring at first because the designs of the buildings are rather standard, with little variation from one to the next. All of them seem patterned after some western architectural design that makes you think of Hogwarts at times because of the archways that flow into one another. Yes, I guess that is the right term, it felt ‘western’ as though you were not in Japan. It looks like one of those Ivy League universities you see on TV series from the US. There must be more hidden somewhere in the campus, but the only structure I noted as traditionally Japanese was the gate to the north.
What I am not sure of is if the University of Tokyo has other campuses, as there is a specific name for the one in Bunkyo. Perhaps, it is the main campus? Although there were not a lot of people when I was there, one can just feel the academic atmosphere, hmm, reminiscing my university days. I walked the streets as if I belonged in there, which would probably just be a dream in this lifetime because the tuition fee is exorbitant, as well as the living expenses. Maybe if and when I decide to get back to the academe and take it seriously through a master’s degree. For now, I was okay with just feeling the campus as if it were my own. It was a nice and quiet alternative to riding a roller coaster, although I find both very therapeutic.
I was not able to get inside one of the buildings. I did not know how access works in that campus, and so I just walked farther to find the roller coaster, which does not seem to be so far from the campus. Lack of better things to do. Exiting through the north gate, I turned left, and reaching the first corner, one would see the tracks of the roller coaster to the far right. Follow that path and you end up at LaQua, which is a big mall a la Greenbelt with open air establishments and some rides (which GB does not have).
There is a giant Ferris wheel that must give a commanding view of the city, but the price is around 800 yen, or was it a thousand? No, thanks. The area guarantees a good walking tour because it is connected to the Tokyo Dome, where baseball matches are held. You could find an elevated park connecting the two areas, with some picturesque views from an elevated vantage point. Back to LaQua, they also have a water splash ride similar to EK’s log jam. You can also ride a carousel. Or shop. Next to Tokyo Dome, on the other side of LaQua is a mall amusement park with a mini Anchor’s Away ride, along with some establishments, and arcade gaming, if I am not mistaken. | 2019-04-18T13:28:20Z | http://www.ihcahieh.com/2012/10/bunkyo-01-stroll-at-university-of-tokyo.html |

(Bloomberg) -- After eating the dust of its German rival for past three years, BMW AG is getting a faster start off the line in early 2019.
BMW sales rose 2.9 percent in March and were roughly flat in the first quarter, as surging demand for X3 compact crossovers helped the brand surpass Daimler AG’s Mercedes-Benz. A slump for the small GLA crossover and GLE sport utility vehicle sent Mercedes sales down 9.3 percent for the first three months of the year.
Fresh off a year in which it trailed Mercedes by fewer than 5,000 vehicles, BMW ended the first quarter with a luxury sales lead of 2,717 units.
Toyota Motor Corp.’s Lexus had the best performance among the top luxury automakers in March, with a jump in RX SUV deliveries pacing an 8.2 percent increase. The brand boosted sales 4 percent in the quarter.
Volkswagen AG’s Audi bounced back from a five-month streak of falling deliveries with a 1.1 percent gain in March, driven by the Q5 and Q7 SUVs. Deliveries are still down 3.9 percent so far this year. | 2019-04-21T14:15:26Z | https://www.bloombergquint.com/business/bmw-pulls-ahead-of-mercedes-in-u-s-luxury-race-as-lexus-gains |
