Life after high school graduation can be overwhelming. Sometimes, it’s hard to find a sense of what direction to take. It can be challenging to find opportunities to keep experiencing new things, new places, and new people in the community. That’s why Kudoz is so excited to announce that they are officially accepting youth!
Kudoz is an experience platform connecting individuals with a cognitive disability with other passionate people in the community. People involved in Kudoz – “Kudoers” – use the online experience catalogue to meet up with volunteer hosts. Hosts offer 1-hour, 1-on-1 experiences exploring a passion or interest – things like carpentry, landscape photography, slam poetry, German cuisine, or film making.
Previously, the platform was only available to adults, but this great news means that Kudoz is open to younger people, too! The recent change comes from on-going discussions with families, who indicated that Kudoz would be a great opportunity for youth with developmental disabilities transitioning into adulthood.
When someone signs up with Kudoz, they first meet with a learning coach to chat about their interests and to figure out how they could most benefit from Kudoz. With over 150 unique, splendid in-person experiences to choose from, there’s something exciting for everyone to try! Check out a full list of the things on offer in the Kudoz Catalogue.
Reflection Café is also an essential part of the journey. Learning is what happens when we combine experience and reflection! So, Kudoz created a space for everybody to reflect upon their experiences. Using tools, games, and the chance to just sit down over a hot drink, Reflection Café is an opportunity to meet other Kudoers, hosts, and community members, while picking up a new way to see the world! Visit the Kudoz Facebook page to find a Reflection Café near you.
For Kudoz, success means empowering individuals’ sense of self, shattering stigma, and building social capital between people with and without cognitive disabilities. They believe that everyone has a passion (or passions!) to share. So what’s holding you back? Jump on board and join the adventure! There is limited capacity for youth. If you’re ready to discover, grow and challenge yourself with the Kudoz team, go to Kudoz.ca for more information, or give Kudoz a call at 604 862 5836. | 2019-04-25T18:48:07Z | https://posabilities.ca/kudoz-welcomes-youth-experience-platform/ |
It is often said that a property purchase is the largest single financial commitment you will make in your lifetime.
It therefore makes sense to establish whether the property that you would like to buy is affected by defects or other issues that might affect your decision – or might justify renegotiation of the agreed purchase price.
Forewarned is forearmed and, of course, it is best to obtain good advice before making a legal commitment to the purchase, in order to avoid any unexpected surprises later.
Will the Mortgage Valuation Suffice?
If you are buying a home with the assistance of a mortgage, the lender will probably commission a valuation report, to confirm whether the property provides acceptable security for the loan.
Although it is often paid for by the purchaser, the valuation is intended solely to satisfy the requirements of the lender.
It is not a survey – and you should not rely on it, when deciding whether or not to proceed with the purchase.
Before exchanging contracts, therefore, you should obtain independent, specialist advice from a Chartered Surveyor. | 2019-04-26T10:26:14Z | http://www.thatsurveyor.co.uk/surveys/ |

Chelveston Home Guard - L to R - Art(hur) See, Walt Bridge (later promoted to L/Cpl) and Percy Felce (later promoted to Sgt).
The Northamptonshire Local Defence Volunteers (LDV) were formed in May 1940 following an appeal by Anthony Eden (Secretary of State for War) for volunteers in reserved occupations or those either too young / too old to join the regular forces, to form a local defence force. Its commander was Major General Sir Hereward Wake, Chairman of the Northamptonshire Territorial Army Association.
In Raunds, volunteers were led by Capt V H Sykes (a local solicitor), who was president of the Raunds British Legion and the Chief Air Raid Precautions (ARP) warden for Raunds and District until he took up the LDV appointment. 11 men from Chelveston volunteered from the start.
In June 1940, the LDV reorganised along the military lines of battalions (1,500 men), companies (200-300 men), platoons (20-30 men) and sections (6 men).
The 8th (Wellingborough District) Battalion, under Lt Col H.G. Sotheby, covered the area around Raunds, Rushden/Higham Ferrers, Earls Barton, Bozeat and Wollaston, totalling 18 parishes, with its headquarters in Rushden.
The Raunds LDV became "A" company and the Chelveston volunteers formed two sections (Nos. 5 & 6) of 5 Platoon of "A" Company. The Chelveston sections carried out their drill evenings in the Village Institute on Mondays and Thursdays.
In July 1940, the LDV was renamed the Home Guard.
In June 1941, Lt Col Sotheby retired and Capt Sykes was promoted to Lt Col to take over the 8th Battalion. Capt (later Major) A.H Freer (a shoe factory manager) assumed command of "A" Company. In March 1943, Major Freer died suddenly at home and Major W.M.Horrell assumed command of "A" Company.
The Home Guard stood down on 1st November 1944 and officially disbanded on 31st December 1945. Members were given a certificate of their service and those who had served 3 or more years were eligible for the Defence Medal.

These records were obtained from the Chelveston Sections' Register of Hours of Attendance at Training and Operational Duties (Army Book 527) and Section or Platoon Roll Book (covering February 1942 to stand down) courtesy of Irene Bishop (youngest daughter of the late (Sgt) Percy Felce). | 2019-04-21T19:05:25Z | https://www.chelveston-pc.gov.uk/1940---home-guard.html |
There is no doubt that the Internet has given us unprecedented information, and cultural access, on a truly global scale. We no longer have to rely on our rigidly self-censored home town newspaper, or the pitiful excuse for news and analysis provided by the talking heads of network television. Today a worker with an average income and a high school education can find sources of news and opinions, from all points of view, from every part of our planet.
Nevertheless there is no substitute for getting away from the computer and television screens occasionally, taking a look at our society first hand, and engaging in face-to-face interaction with other human beings.
I was glad to be able to load up my trusty five year-old Ford Contour to hit the road recently. I avoided the indifferent and stingy incompetence of the airline industry, as well as the cynical stupidity of "Homeland Security," that too many travelers seem to accept without complaint. I’m afraid I can’t easily adapt to such discomfort and indignity with good grace. Since I don’t want to make my first visit to Cuba on the wrong side of the fence at Gitmo I now do almost all of my travel east of the Continental Divide by car.
Actually, if you’ve got the time, as I now do, this is the most rewarding mode of travel. Not only do you often view beautiful scenery; by striking up conversations, and overhearing others, at filling stations, restaurants, and motels, you can collect a lot of anecdotal evidence about the mood of the working class.
While most prefer to talk about other topics it’s not hard to discover a gloomy political/social/economic outlook. People are concerned about the war. They feel insecure about their jobs; nervous about available, affordable health care; worried about their retirement prospects. Nor do they have much expectation that any politician can make things better. By and large they keep their heads down, hope for the best, and look for more comforting distractions.
It’s easy to fall into such a funk. It helps to get together with others now and then who both want to understand our world and to change it for the better. Fortunately, that was the objective of my 3000+ mile trip—some hopeful glimmers out there on that very dark horizon.
I’m old enough to remember the days before Roe v Wade. Especially before The Pill became widely available the lack of safe legal abortion as an option of last resort put many women—and often their partners—in terrifying situations. Winning the right to choose was the first big victory of the current wave of feminism that took shape in the late Sixties.
It was a huge win for women not only as a needed component of safe, effective birth control. It was also an assertion of a woman’s right to choose her own destiny, to make fundamental decisions without granting veto rights to husbands, boyfriends, fathers, or clergy.
Paternalism dies hard not because—or at least not just because—men are naturally jerks. It is nurtured by the powers that be in our society who exploit women in multiple ways—as unpaid mothers, and unpaid housekeepers, allowing bosses to pay male heads of household less—as well as all kinds of pay and promotion discrimination when women work outside the home as well. True gender equality would have a tremendous economic as well as social impact and would be bad news for the ruling class.
The Establishment is divided over the proper tactical response to the women’s movement. Some are content with the prevailing trend of the two income family. Both Mom and Dad go out and punch a clock—though Mom still gets paid somewhat less than Dad would get for the same work. Dad promises to "help out" with some of the house work, and maybe occasionally does. They lay out a big chunk of their earnings on child care. They eat a lot of fast food take out. Bill Clinton, whose administrations helped to accelerate this process, could afford to say that abortion should be "safe, legal, and rare."
But some of our rulers—represented by Clinton’s successor—are as receptive to uppity women as the Devil is to Holy Water. Their perceived need to keep women in their place is what is behind the fierce opposition to Roe from Day One that has become increasingly vicious over time.
So far the reactionaries have been unable to reverse Roe. But they have eliminated most public funding for any birth control counseling, much less services. They have invented new fictional categories such as "partial birth abortions." They have harassed medical research using fetal tissue—even those originating from natural miscarriages. They have delayed and restricted access to birth control drugs freely distributed throughout the rest of the world.
To their credit, women started saying "Enough is enough—We’re going to fight back"! The April 25 March for Women’s Lives was initiated by seven organizing groups: American Civil Liberties Union, Black Women’s Health Imperative, Feminist Majority, NARAL Pro-Choice America, National Latina Institute for Reproductive Health, National Organization for Women, and Planned Parenthood Federation of America. It had a link to the labor movement through the early endorsement by the Coalition of Labor Union Women. Ultimately more than 1200 groups—including, I’m proud to say, kclabor.org—co-sponsored the march.
The demands of the March were quite comprehensive— Choice, Justice, Access, Health, Abortion, Global and Family Planning.
I have attended most major demonstrations in Washington over the past forty years including the biggest of the Vietnam and Central America protests, the march for the ERA, and the monster Solidarity Day organized by the AFL-CIO in 1981. The March For Women’s Lives was bigger than any of those. The organizers claimed 1,125,000. It certainly was in that million-plus ball park.
As could be expected, women were a big majority of the crowd—I would guess men made up maybe 20-25 percent. All age groups were represented. And, while the participants were still predominantly white, there were substantial numbers of Black and Latina women—far more than I had ever seen at previous major women’s events.
There were perhaps a few hundred counter-demonstrators struggling to make their presence known—with little success.
The atmosphere was exhilarating. It gave us a glimpse of the kind of potential power across this land that is seldom tapped.
Some of the best received speakers were famous actresses such as Susan Sarandon, Kathleen Turner, Cybill Shepard, and Whoopi Goldberg. Veteran campaigners Gloria Steinem and Farmworker leader Dolores Huerta, also got big applause.
There was a serious downside, however. The program of the event was largely dominated by politicians and clergy. While the March was officially nonpartisan it quickly took on the character of a Kerry campaign rally.
Kerry did not attend but was represented by several prominent vicars including Senators Hillary Clinton and Barbara Boxer, House minority leader Nancy Pelosi, and Clinton’s Secretary of State, Madeleine Albright.
Hopefully this rejuvenated movement can stay on message and avoid becoming lost in the Lesser Evil, ABB, swamp. | 2019-04-21T22:51:10Z | http://www.kclabor.org/three_hopeful_glimmers.htm |

On July 25, 2017, the Securities and Exchange Commission issued a Report following their investigation of The DAO. The DAO is an unincorporated organization that is just one example of a “Decentralized Autonomous Organization” – a virtual organization embodied in computer code and executed on a distributed ledger or blockchain.
The DAO was formed in 2015 as unique form of crowdfunding whereby participants would vote on proposals and be entitled to rewards. Between April and May of 2016, The DAO offered and sold approximately 1.15 billion DAO Tokens in exchange for approximately 12 million Ether. Ether is a form of virtual currency. These DAO Tokens gave the holder certain voting and ownership rights.
Token holders could vote on predetermined proposals deciding where The DAO invested its money, with each token holder’s vote weighted according to how many DAO Tokens he or she held. On June 17th, 2016, an unknown individual or group attacked The DAO and appropriated approximately 1/3 of the total funds. Although the funds were eventually recovered by The DAO, the SEC began investigating the attack and The DAO. Ultimately, the SEC determined that an Enforcement Action was not necessary, however it issued a report laying out how the Securities Act and the Securities Exchange Act applies to The DAO and similar entities.
Section 5 of the Securities Act prohibits entities not registered with the SEC from engaging in the offer or sale of securities in interstate commerce. Upon investigation of the circumstances surrounding The DAO, the SEC stated that The DAO qualifies as an “issuer” and thus must register as such with the SEC in order to sell DAO Tokens – which the SEC considers to be securities – in compliance with federal securities laws. Given the SEC’s flexible interpretation and application of the Act, this Report is a caution to virtual entities that the federal securities laws are applicable and that the SEC intends to pursue enforcement of these laws in the field of virtual currencies and securities. | 2019-04-23T08:43:32Z | https://www.psdlaw.net/blog/2017/07/sec-issues-report-on-application-federal-securities-laws-to-crowdfunding-through-cryptocurrency |
A tree as envisioned for my own cemetery. The three bird species are from Audubon's original "Birds of America" book which have gone extinct- the Passenger Pigeon, the Carolina Parakeet and the Ivory-Billed Woodpecker (until recently of course, since both the parakeet and the woodpecker have been rediscovered in the last year). Five birds altogether from his book have gone extinct, but the other two are ducks that weren't in Florida. The birds in my tree are directly taken from Audubon's original plates, in poses and even the number of each species he drew. I like the idea that the birds which James Audubon killed and stuffed in order to draw them as if alive I then take and return to the trees they were stolen from. And bring them back to life. | 2019-04-23T02:39:12Z | https://christinapettersson.com/artwork/1492225-Christina-Pettersson-s-Grave.html |

No worries.... super idea! Thanks for sharing.
Sorry I put this in the wrong place, I will post again in the walk a thon section.
One of my walkers suggested that we do a bake sale. Maybe find one or two women that love baking and see if they can put a couple kinds of cookies together to sell for maybe like $3-$5 for a plate or fresh, home baked cookies. What do you think? I am positive that I can get at least 5 women plus myself to bake some kind of cookies or breads or something. Sounds like a good idea for some treats to be available to hungry walkers. | 2019-04-20T22:56:12Z | http://www.preeclampsia.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=68&t=8821&p=164769 |

It takes a lot to appreciate a game that lets you meander into a dreamlike world put two and two together and arrive at all the right answers in a completely illogical fashion. Rivers of Alice is one such game. It takes you into the fantasy world of Alice’s dreams where you have to interact with the various objects in the environment to solve puzzles and help Alice overcome her fears.
For instance, it won’t make any sense to pick up some sticks floating down a river, smack a lazy sloth with them and figure out why you see something that resembles dragonflies. Well, there are plenty such elements like that and with no idea what’s about to happen next, you may find yourself locked in some deep at-times fascinating and at-times frustrating puzzle that takes forever to solve.
The beautiful hand drawn graphics and enchanting soundtrack by Spanish indie-rock group vetusta morla make up the other cool aspects of the game. Rivers of Alice also supports French, German, Spanish, Portuguese and Italian languages.
If you’ve got a thing for abstract meandering puzzle adventure games and don’t mind spending a little over 6 dollars, you can check out Rivers of Alice on the Play Store.

The Chief Minister of Gibraltar Fabian Picardo found time, despite his busy Brexit schedule, to visit the Gibraltar International Chess Festival today.
On arrival he was met by festival founder Brian Callaghan and was presented with a bunch of flowers for his wife Justine by nine year old chess player Chloe Kou who participated in the first ever Chess Seminar on the Rock this month.
Mr Picardo also met Dommaraju Gukesh the youngest Grandmaster in this year’s tournament and second youngest Grandmaster in history. The young 12 year old player from India exchanged a few moves on the chess board with the Chief Minister of Gibraltar after which Mr Picardo commented: “impressive, he beat me in three moves”. | 2019-04-23T19:04:03Z | https://www.gibchess.com/news/chief-minister-visit-55 |
When writing your articles, you need to keep in mind two things: first is your reader, next are the search engines. You need to make sure that both aspects are taken care of. Make it easy for your readers to understand and digest what you have to say. By highlighting your website, you help Google better understand your site’s data. Data highlighter allows you to highlight parts of your website through Google Webmaster Tools, without having to make any code changes. The days of self-serving, scammy, and spammy SEO are long-gone. And that’s a good thing. The ‘secret’ to success with SEO is no secret at all. Just focus on serving your audience’s needs and answering their questions in a thorough and empathetic way. The true answer of whether social plays a role in search rankings may not always be written out in black and white. But you can leverage social to win at SEO. That part is crystal clear.
One task the search engines face is judging the value of content. Although evaluating how the community responds to a piece of content using link analysis is part of the process, the search engines can also draw some conclusions based on what they see on the page. There are literally hundreds of factors that contribute to your final rankings. On top of that, it can be hard to determine what kinds of trends Google may associate with your chosen keywords. Search engine optimization is often about making small modifications to parts of your website. When viewed individually, these changes might seem like incremental improvements, but when combined with other optimizations, they could have a noticeable impact on your site's user experience and performance in organic search results. A great way to boost your site’s search visibility is to have a blog. Search engines are constantly scanning for content that is well-written, original, relevant and up-to-date and a blog post can tick all these boxes.
A well-structured and easy to read site allows search engines to navigate successfully. Considering the user experience for your customers before you build your site makes this process much simpler. Making content 3-clicks-away is advised, if users can’t find what they’re looking for they’ll return to Google. It’s entirely possible that Google actually uses some sort of hidden sliding scale to determine its quality score. In organic search, you don’t have to continually pay to be seen, and once you’ve reached the first page of Google (and you have quality content and a trustworthy site), you’ll often stick there for a long period of time (depending on the amount of competition). Once upon a time, marketers focused on strategizing which keywords to place across their web presence in order to increase their rankings in a search engine results page (SERP).
Google is making a real push to get to grips with any tactic they see as manipulating the rankings in a way that’s against their guidelines – from keyword cramming to paying for sponsored posts. Performing regular audits on your website’s links is a good way to detect suspicious, potential negative SEO activity. Regularly monitoring of your link profile can also help you catch a possible attack early and prevent it from spiraling out of control. If you want to populate on the first page of Google organically and improve your SEO, patience is what differentiates the pretenders from the contenders. Gaz Hall, a Freelance SEO Consultant, commented: "On-page linking is an essential piece of the puzzle, and they impact link juice in more ways than you might anticipate. For example, links to content matter more to Google than mere navigation links."
Understanding how your website visitors find you will help you determine if your SEO, marketing or networking efforts are paying off, or if you should refocus your priorities. Google is showing Context is King when it comes to indexing people in Google's Index. is of primary importance to have relevant backlinks coming in to your website. Mind you! The links should have relevancy to the content of your page. The more the number of relevant backlinks coming in to your website, the more importance and authority you have in the eyes of search engines. Therefore, backlinks becomes an important factor in determining where the page appears in SERPs (Search Engine Results Page). 95% of the U.S. Internet browsing population accesses search engines each month. Furthermore, the U.S. online population makes an average of 37 search engine visits per person per month. | 2019-04-18T12:44:35Z | http://saveourschools.co.uk/Why-Your-Content-Is-Your-Most-Important-Asset-1518488281.html |

John Deere recently announced a number of new developments with farm equipment for 2016 and 2017, including a new air hoe seeder model, planter row unit and updated combine.
For more information and photos provided by John Deere, please read below.
Small grains and oilseed producers can now plant more acres quickly and accurately with the introduction of the 76-foot 1870 Air Hoe Drill.
This latest addition to the 1870 air seeder lineup, which includes 40-foot and 56-foot models, incorporates many new features designed to improve seed and fertilizer placement and increase productivity.
John Peters, marketing manager for the John Deere Seeding Group, says the wider air seeder integrates the latest in precision placement, depth and pressure control and other enhancements.
“The new 76-foot model 1870 offers a time-saving 36% increase in seeding width, better residue-flow capabilities and improved seeding and fertilizer placement and control,” Peters says. “Also, with the new retractable openers for easier servicing and improved transport, customers will gain more productivity when seeding small grains and oil seeds.
The 76-foot 1870 is a five-section seeder with 12-inch row spacing, compatible with 430-bushel tow-between and 430- or 550-bushel tow-behind John Deere seed carts. It features increased frame height and 56 inches of spacing between each rank, which is nearly 20 inches more space compared to other seeders, to help move residue through without clogging.
The 1910 Air Carts have been updated to add even more productivity to the 1870 Air Seeder system. They feature a new AirPower 2 Dual fan option that delivers up to 550 pounds of total product per acre across the full width of the air seeder, using two independently controlled fans. The large, cast aluminum design and increased fan size allows higher-capacity performance especially when operating on slopes or hilly terrain.
The new 1870 Air Seeder also features a floating front hitch and wings with a range of 25 degrees of flex. High-flotation tires placed inside the high-clearance frame are standard and provide better ground following and drill-to-soil contact, which helps improve accuracy of seed placement when covering hilly, undulating terrain.
Another exclusive standard feature to the 76-foot model is the TruSet depth and pressure control. TruSet lets the operator monitor, set and adjust trip force and packing pressure from the tractor cab. TruSet also makes side-to-side frame leveling easier.
Controlled through the GreenStar 2630 display, operators can set target seeding depth and adjust on-the-go, saving time and making it easier to fine-tune settings due to changes in field and soil conditions.
For improved seed and fertilizer placement, the 1870 has independent hydraulic controls and state-of-the-art openers for consistent seed placement and fertilizer separation. Fertilizer can be banded 6 inches deep and seed tubes can be adjusted in ¼-inch increments. A new cam lever on each opener makes it easier for the operator to adjust seed depth across the entire seeder.
With the new 1870 Air Seeder, folding and transporting can be easier and more maneuverable. The 76-foot 1870 folds completely in two minutes and the retractable openers narrow the folded width to a slim 22½. The ability to retract the openers also makes servicing the seeder easier. And the use of more greaseless bushings and long-life components cuts service time in half and increases uptime in the field.
To make transport easier, John Deere has included a “bump up” and “duck down” feature that allows customers to increase ground clearance by 4 inches to clear obstacles like railroad tracks and duck down by 6 inches to clear low hanging power lines or overpasses. And to help speed up planting and headland turns, full-rise of the seeder has been optimized to seven and one-half seconds.
For model year 2017, John Deere T670 model walker combines will have significant enhancements to boost productivity, threshing capacity, and straw quality for baling while making service and maintenance much easier and less time consuming. These are all benefits that U.S. and Canadian small grain producers will appreciate when it comes to harvesting during often tight windows and tough conditions.
According to Terry DeMay, senior marketing representative for John Deere Harvester Works, the newly updated T670 Combine will lead the industry with several new features, helping to make it the most productive walker combine available.
For customers harvesting both canola and small grains, the new T670 has a new swing-in Booster Bar that makes switching between crops easier and faster – often in less than 5 minutes – and easier to adjust as crop conditions change.
In addition, John Deere has increased the size of the overshot beater, concaves, separator drum and grate, and walker area as part of its updated T-concept solution. These are all designed to improve threshing speed, throughput, and straw and grain quality during harvest while making it easy to change over to other crops and optimize harvesting performance.
Greater throughput and capacity means operators need more speed to unload. As a result, the T670 with its Xtra Fast System can offload grain at 3.3 bushels per second.
The new T670 Combine has optimal maintenance intervals with easier access to those service areas and fewer filters to check and replace. To make servicing and cleanout more convenient, the new T-series comes with an optional factory-installed 16-gallon air compressor with 33-foot hose and three quick-coupler points to access different areas of the machine.
Like its predecessor, the new model T670 has a spacious, comfortable and quiet Premium Cab, and transmission options.
The newly redesigned T670 Combine from John Deere is available for model year 2017. | 2019-04-21T06:21:29Z | https://www.no-tillfarmer.com/articles/5805-john-deere-unveils-new-air-hoe-seeder-maxemerge-row-unit-updated-combine |
Jeff & Tida are astounded by what God has done through the coffee roasting and the café. As a family, they opened their coffee shop in Rayong with the hopes of providing a place for the community to gather and connect.
In a 96% Buddhist culture and a 1% Christian culture, attending a church to search for spiritual meaning is not on the radar for most. However, attending a store front shop to have a cup of coffee just might be. Jeff went on a journey to learn the art of roasting and has not only perfected the art of coffee roasting with innovative products from these single origin beans, but he now has trained 4 other coffee shop owners in Thailand, providing them with his product.
The design and interiour of the coffee shop itself is very intentional. Various styles of furniture are separated into smaller circles of relationship throughout the coffees shop. The furniture is not uniform, is mismatched and deliberately imperfect. A trait that alone creates conversation. An addition was added to the coffee shop to make room for a band to play and more seating to be added.
The Vineyard community now gathers in the coffee shop for worship and sharing on Sundays… and a cup of coffee of course. When Jeff is not preaching, roasting coffee beans or training other roasters, he can be found having a cup of coffee with the customers who come to enjoy Yindee Coffee Shop. Conversations are easy, spiritual conversations are even easier.
The Vineyard community have had the honour of baptising several locals, and each of those people encountered the story of Jesus over a cup of coffee in Yindee Coffee Shop. In a 96% Buddhist culture, a cup of coffee appears to be one of the ways to Jesus. The story that starts with the opium trade and the inherent invitation to addiction, stumbles into redeeming the seeds of injustice and ultimately finding its full redemption in the waters of baptism. Isn’t that just like God?
Vision ‘CAPHUDIO’ (Church/Coffee/Physiotherapy/Music Studio) develops out of a sustainable business as ministry of Rayong Vineyard Christian Fellowship called 'Yindee Coffee Roasters’ as it has reached out and connect with the community while serving poor coffee growers and sustaining the church financially at the same time since 2012. In 2017, there are new young members that join the church with remarkable talents. All of them love Jesus and all of them are business minded.
COFFEE : ‘Yindee Coffee Roasters’, our coffee business has become quite known in the city for the good quality. Soon, Yindee Coffee will need bigger space and more people to come in and share the workloads.
CHURCH : Rayong Vineyard is now a church 7 days a week and is meeting in Yindee Coffee space. The church is growing, and the café area is a bit too small for the size of Sunday congregation.
PHYSIOTHERAPY : Two young professional physiotherapists just joined our team. One of them lead worship, love coffee and have some barista’s knowledge. They are both willing to use their healing hands to bless the church by running a small physiotherapist clinic plus helping with the coffee business.
MUSIC STUDIO : A young couple, both being professional musicians, recently joined our church. Wanting to use their talents for Jesus, they now add up to our existing worship team. They already have some music studio equipment at home. Our dream is to record old worship songs that we translated into Thai, as well as writing and record new Thai Christian worship songs.
This vision comes out of who we are, what we do and some of what we already have and have done. We dream of fitting all of these functions and areas of surving into one common building where our fellowship and outreach can be spontaneous, natural and on a daily basis.
We are praying for: - Somewhere we can have enough space for all our activities. It could be a new place to build this or a building to rent. - Someone to help us in term of knowledge and training in all the areas above. - Help with the coffee business, the physiotherapy and for a home studio equipment (new or used) so we can be more effective and do even better. | 2019-04-26T04:01:25Z | https://sinapi.no/index.php/rayong-vineyard |

In this section, you will get some helpful tools and advice on how to select the best study abroad program for you. You have a variety of programs to choose from in Switzerland, including inter-university sports tournaments, cultural tours, skiing in the Alps, and studies of business and international relations.
Prior to participating, students and their parents should take time to look at the different programs available for study abroad. One of the main reasons students cite for not studying abroad is that they start the planning process too late and miss the opportunity. The earlier you start researching programs, the better chance you will have to study abroad, include the coursework in your on–campus degree program, and graduate on time. The simplest way to find an appropriate study abroad program in Switzerland is to look at programs available through your home campus; home campus faculty and staff can help you through the process.
U.S. Home Campus Study Abroad Office/Resource Center: The best place to look for a study abroad program in Switzerland is your U.S. home campus study abroad office (where available). The staff can help you through the process of finding a program, applying, participating, and returning home.
Websites: There are a number of websites with information about available study abroad programs in Switzerland. Some websites we recommend are: StudyAbroad.com and IIE Passport.
Reference Books: The following are comprehensive reference books which are updated each year: Peterson's Study Abroad, Peterson's Summer Study Abroad, IIE Academic Year Abroad, and IIE Short–Term Study Abroad. They include detailed explanations and descriptions of many study abroad programs in Switzerland.
The following is a list of questions to ask when looking for an appropriate study abroad program in Switzerland. Along with speaking with program administrators in the United States, we suggest you speak with students who have participated in a study abroad program in Switzerland. If possible, speak directly with a program administrator in Switzerland to find out the strengths and weaknesses of their program.
Courses Available: What courses can be taken in Switzerland? Will they be taught by U.S. home campus professors or foreign university faculty or locals? What credentials do they have? Have they taught U.S. students before? Is the set–up in a traditional classroom?
Transfer Credit: Will courses taken in Switzerland count towards your U.S. degree program (major, minor, language, general education, etc.)?
Support Services: Does your U.S. home campus provide academic advisement and counseling to students through program orientations (some campuses require that all students take a semester–long course before studying abroad)? What types of support services and administrative offices are in place in Switzerland?
Safety: Is there someone at the program's U.S. office and in Switzerland who is specifically responsible for students' health and safety? What policies and procedures do they have in place? Do they have an emergency/evacuation plan?
In addition to the above, there may be other, personal matters and questions you wish to discuss with program administrators before making any final decisions. Make sure to look through the rest of the Handbook for more health and safety information on studying abroad in Switzerland. | 2019-04-24T09:54:41Z | http://studentsabroad.com/handbook/finding-quality-program.php?country=Switzerland |

Becca and Ryan are off to India. From February 21-28 they will be in Bangalore, India working/serving at an orphanage called the Beulah Home. There are over 90 children that live at the Beulah Home Orphanage with ages ranging from 3 years old to 16 years old.
Becca and Ryan's trip to India is part of the "Love All Serve All" (LASA) mission trips sponsored through the Student Ministries Department of Taejon Christian International School. This last week of February is a school vacation (Winter Break) and during this week there are four LASA trips taking place. There is the India/orphanage trip, a Borneo trip where a team of students will serve as an evangelical team moving from village to village sharing the Gospel, there is a Habitat for Humanity trip to the Philippines and a trip to Boracay, Thailand where students will work with a local missionary, helping and serving in various ways.
There will be no access to the Internet for the week so this blog will be silent for a while. On March 1 please check back for details about our trip to India. In the meantime...every time you think about checking our blog this week, please pray for us instead.
I first heard the phrase, “Do the next thing,” from Oswald Chambers. It comes up numerous times in his biography, Abandoned to God, and it stands as a simple, yet profound, “working out” of his life and trust in God. I came across this old poem and I suspect it is one that Oswald read at one time or another in his life.
Thrust them with Jesus, doe the nexte thynge.
Then, as He beckons thee, doe the nexte thynge.
There isn't much of a problem with PDA (Public Display of Affection) on the streets of South Korea, but apparently in the coffee shops of South Korea it is a different story.
.Here is a sign we spotted in a Holly's Coffee Shop.
I am growing in my understanding of the sovereignty of God and I find this quote helpful.
The books, on and around my desk, represent only a small portion of the books that I own. Most of my books "stand at the ready" on the bookshelves in the other room. I am thankful for all of my books, but for now the books that are on and around my desk are the ones that I consider "friends."
They are friends because they, the authors, their words, (and the Holy Spirit) are speaking into my heart and life. On the books that surround me I read the names: Oswald Chambers, Eugene Peterson, N.T. Wright, Dietrich Bonhoeffer, David Roper and William Willimon, and in the center of it all I see my open Bible.
This morning I am thankful for the words of Eugene Peterson. His comments on Matthew 5:20 are a blessing, encouragement and challenge to me today.
Good words from a good friend.
I really like this and I want to share. It is a good way to spend 5 minutes.
As I look in the mirror I see that the little bit of hair that I have left on my head is turning gray. I would like to think that these signs of silver are a harbinger of wisdom in my life, but I know myself too well to know that sadly, this is not the case. I am a bit disappointed, because I thought for sure that by the time that I reached the age that I am, I would have it all together—but I don’t.
I have been a follower of Jesus Christ for nearly 29 years. That almost sounds impressive. As they say, “I put in my time.” Surely, all those years have served to mold me into a wise, gray haired man of spiritual maturity—nope. That is not the way things work in the Kingdom of God. In the Korean culture age yields respect; in the American culture it yields Social Security, but in the Kingdom of God age yields…wrinkles?
God is unimpressed with age; He knows that He is the only source of real security and He doesn’t notice wrinkles. God is interested in one thing—our hearts. Our hearts are timeless. Humans are created in the image of God and are eternal beings. Chronology has no effect on the human heart.
In the Kingdom of God the heart of a Christ follower is to have a “childlike” quality about it. The maturing heart of a Christian is realized not by years of experience but rather by acts of obedience—childlike obedience. When I think of childlike obedience the following descriptors come to mind: joyful, unreserved, risking, trusting, hopeful, selfless, unquestioning, faithful, committed and absolute. Some of those descriptors sound…scary.
Can’t I just put in my time?
As I was filing and sorting through the stack of “important” papers that covered my messy desk, I came across a piece of paper from a yellow legal pad upon which I had scratched out some notes in blue ink.
Are you optimistic? pessimistic? or hopeful?
As a Christ follower and organizational leader how am I considering things?
Hope resides in the fact that nothing that happens escapes the gaze of God.
*It just came to me...I took the above notes from an article by Gordon MacDonald in LEADERSHIP JOURNAL--good stuff.
I have been going through N.T. Wright’s book, Simply Christian, with a group of guys in a morning study and this week we went through the chapter on “Prayer.” I really like Wright’s rendition of the Lord’s Prayer.
"Jesus has caught me in the net of his good news.
I want to be part of his kingdom-movement.
I find myself drawn into his heaven-on-earth way of living.
I want to be part of his bread-for-the-world agenda, for myself and for others.
I need forgiveness for myself—from sin, from debt, from every weight around my neck—and I intend to live with forgiveness in my heart and in my own dealings with others.
And because I live in the real world, where evil is still powerful, I need protecting and rescuing.
And, in and through it all, I acknowledge and celebrate the Father’s kingdom, power and glory." | 2019-04-21T04:30:07Z | https://www.ryanmroberts.com/2009/02/index.html |

Every Day Away offers a unique day camp experience each week allowing our older campers the opportunity to get out and about each day. They make amazing memories with new friends, enjoy times with old friends who return year after year or join them from school circles. It allows them to “get out of their daily bubble” in a different way, all while providing them a feeling of some new-found independence with safe adventures and stimulation that tests their strengths and possibly even helps them overcome some fears.
Daily busses depart from Uptown on Broadway Ave, as well as our New Orleans Kidcam camp location at City Park.

The Bodega is to be found at Zurukoain in the Basque region of Navarra of northern Spain and is run by Bittor Arbe and Kepa Larunbe. There are Seven vineyards - Burunziain, Ernobeleta, Aritzarotz, Magdalena, El Cerrao, San Lorenzo and Apalaz - totalling 20 hectares and each is treated organically. Grapes grown include Tempranillo, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Garnatxa white. The estate is relatively new having been established in 1998 and 'Aroa' is a Basque word that means 'optimum' referring to the ideal time to make wine. In addition to the winery there is also an award-winning restaurant on site that produces locally sourced food to compliment the estate's wines. This spicy, unoaked white is made from 100% Grenache white grapes and works very well with game dishes.
A pale-golden in colour. Floral nose of apples, almonds and honeysuckle. Full-bodied and spicy on the palate with notes of fennel, olives and dried fruit. The finish is lengthy and the tannins are well integrated. Remains on the palate for a considerable time. Altogether a sensational wine.

Last night the Steele Knights played an incredible game against the East Central Hornets, defeating them 62-3. All of our games are fun to watch, but yesterday seemed even more incredibly so with a bunch of awesome plays. It was homecoming too, so it’s always fun to see the giant mums that are Texas tradition. The kids had fun too and we tested out our new cowbells (see clip of the kids practicing their bell ringing skills in the weekly game video here)! Sadly, though, one of them went flying never to be seen again. So…if anyone finds it…let me know! Thanks! I can’t believe there are only 2 more regular season games left in the season!!! Go Knights!!! | 2019-04-24T10:28:17Z | https://livinwiththelehnhoffs.com/2016/10/22/another-knight-w/ |
“Your word is ‘across,'” a judge said at a spelling bee hosted by the Having Ambition ‘N’ Devotion for Service organization.
Sophomore psychology major Safiya Castel misspelled “across,” and before the judges could yell “security,” junior sociology and African-American studies major Candace Moses buzzed on stage in a bee costume.
“If [contenders] spell a word wrong, I sting them,” Moses said, as she humorously escorted a contestant off the stage with a bee dance.
“Across” was the first misspelled word at the spelling bee.
HANDS actively strives to make Philadelphia a better place by providing community service.
“Week after week, we dedicate service to really be a part of something of change,” Moses said.
Recent activities have included cleaning schools, streets and parks, taking children to the movies and roller skating and playing bingo with senior citizens.
The group organized the spelling bee to raise money, which it plans to spend for the people it serves.
Participants could compete in the contest for $5.
HANDS wanted to involve the nearly 30 students in the audience. For $2, students could be entertained with the spelling bee, eat food and drink and win prizes. Every person in the audience was given an index card with a number on it, which pictured different colored bees. After every 30 words, audience members would be called depending on the color and number on their cards. If an audience member spelled a given word correctly, HANDS rewarded him or her with a $10 gift card to 7-Eleven.
A panel of two judges, including Dean of Students Ainsley Carry and Maureen Fisher, program coordinator for Student Activities, moderated the event.
“It’s a worthwhile effort. They genuinely want to help the community,” Carry said.
Unlike the typical spelling bee, HANDS’ contest allowed spellers two lifelines, including “Phone Your Mama,” which allowed a troubled speller to call home. The other permitted spellers to ask an audience member for help.
Sophomore English major Geneve Dupuy joined HANDS after seeing its Facebook group page.
Junior psychology major Jamie Leather participated in the spelling bee.
“I’m a dork, and I like words,” she said.
Grands as Parents, Inc. partnered with students in Bingo. | 2019-04-21T20:01:28Z | https://temple-news.com/spelling-bee-stings-students-with-fun/ |

Why create artificial intelligence? We don’t want to work and we don’t want to die, but more than that, we want answers to life’s mysteries, the most elusive of those mysteries being our own consciousness. More than a perfectly rational decision-making engine we want a salve for our existential insecurity. Through the course of human history, we have envisioned ways to construct a superintelligence that would remove our uncertainty. Is it not curious that whenever we conceptualize an intelligence superior to our own and do not endow it with divinity, we divorce it from the body? Trapped in our fragile shells, tormented by the pain of existence as a physical organism, we long for the purity of thought we imagine could only reside in a “talking head”, be it the brazen heads of the alchemists, the dream of an artificial brain, or the cable network news analyst. We regard the body as a trap for reason, subject as it is to those pesky biological imperatives. Our senses fool us. We’re guided by our heart’s passions. Our thirst and hunger drive us to madness. But the talking head eschews these worldly concerns, has no wants and needs, rather exists only to be an oracle.
The head is traditionally the seat of wisdom. At the end of the mythological Norse Æsir-Vanir War, a hostage exchange goes sideways, and the Vanir wind up beheading an Æsir negotiator named Mímir, sending his head back Asgard. Odin did a little Teutonic magic, and preserved Mímir’s head so he could continue to consult him as a trusted and knowledgeable advisor. Presumably labor laws now prevent this kind of exploitation. Before his unfortunate decapitation, Mímir was considered a fount of wisdom, but after, the head alone was credited with the revelatory abilities and the possession of information about other worlds. 12-13th Century Icelandic historian Snorri Sturluson’s Heimskringla (Chronicle of the Kings of Norway), describes the technical process by which Odin prepared Mímir’s noggin’ for employment. “Odin took the head, smeared it with herbs so that it should not rot, and sang incantations over it. Thereby he gave it the power that it spoke to him, and discovered to him many secrets” (Sturluson, 1844, p218-219).
Pope Sylvester II (946-1003 A.D.), originally known as Gerbert of Aurillac, had a lot of scholarly talents, from astronomy to mathematics, introduced the decimal numeral system to Europe, reintroduced the abacus, and just so happened to be the first French pope. Another of Gerbert’s many claims to fame was his reputed creation of a brazen head, instructions which he found in a stolen secret tome from Moor-occupied Spain. “He cast, for his own purposes, the head of a statue, by a certain inspection of the stars when all the planets were about to begin their courses, which spake not unless spoken to, but then pronounced the truth, either in the affirmative or negative” (William of Malmesbury, 1889, p181). Now, I’m reasonably impressed with any fellow who can make a metal head that answers questions, but one of the common threads that reappears in the alchemists’ and sorcerers’ dabblings in brazen heads is that the head knows the truth. It’s why you create it after all.
After Gerbert, the list of brazen head makers is long and includes the Roman poet Virgil, English scholar Robert Grosseteste, Doctor of the Church Albertus Magnus (Thomas Aquinas, his student, was said to have destroyed it when it wouldn’t shut up and was interfering with his concentration), philosopher and theologian Boethius, alchemist Johann Georg Faust, physician and astrologer Arnaldus de Villa Nova, and “Doctor Mirabilis” himself, Friar Roger Bacon, who reportedly created his brazen head with the express purpose of asking it whether it made sense to make Britain impregnable by ringing it with a wall of brass. A bold, and likely cost-prohibitive maneuver, but what price freedom, eh? Unfortunately, Bacon and his fellow engineers were so exhausted from constructing the head that they supposedly fell asleep and missed the decisive answer. Apparently, brazen heads do not like to repeat themselves.
We’ve been constructing bodiless intelligences for at least a thousand years now, hoping to hit upon that particular combination that reveals the meaning of life, and I suspect our latest obsession with creating artificial intelligence is likely just the latest reflection of this crusade. Perhaps we wouldn’t mind smart cars, smart agents, smart refrigerators, mechanical chess masters, Jeopardy winners, and free-thinking robo-servants/soldiers/adult toys to keep us company in this lonely universe, where we’ve seen no other signs of intelligent life, but deep down we figure if we can create a conscious mind not dissimilar to our own, but faster and free from our worldly cares, are we not gods? And shouldn’t gods have prophets? Talk about tautological theology. We’re not sure about the existence of the gods anymore, and consequently we have to make our own oracles, just in case they never get around to answering our prayers or explaining themselves. As David Byrne of Talking Heads fame said, “Patience is a virtue, but I don’t have the time”.

These days, almost all the browsers compatible with jQuery 3 works even in strict mode. The latest release has been created using this directive.
jQuery 3 has been compiled in the strict mode but if you have a code running in non strict mode, it can happily coexist with jQuery 3’s strict mode.
jQuery 3 supports for…of statement. This is a new kind of loop introduced in ECMAScript 6. It offers a simple way to loop over objects that are iterable like Arrays, Maps and Sets.
In For…Of loop, $.each(…) syntax can be removed. This makes it simple to loop via the elements of jQuery collection.
In the latest version of jQuery, i.e. jQuery 3.0 deferred objects have been made fully supported with the new promises /A+ standards. Deferred is a chainable object which makes it easier to create callback queues.
//above element can’t be selected like this because the selector is parsed as “an element with id ‘abc’ that also has a class ‘def’.
This is an important element that needs to be remembered. .show(), .hide() and .toggle() elements have been updated in the latest version of jQuery 3.0. In this latest version, these elements will emphasize more on inline styles rather than computed styles. With this feature, they will be able to better respect stylesheet changes.
Earlier on() method was concepted to offer a unified interface. This method basically functions by replacing jQuery’s bind(), delegate () and live () methods. Simultaneously jQuery also launched the off() method. This function offers a unified interface and replaces the unbind(), undelegated() and die().
jQuery 3 now deprecates all these methods with the intent of removing them in the advanced or upcoming versions like jQuery 4. However, when using on() and off() methods, you do not have to be worried about the future releases.
This can be done internally via caching.
The latest version of jQuery resolves any kind of bug in the wrapALL() method which takes place when passing a function to it. Other than this, this function is called only once in jQuery 3.
The use of requestAnimationFrame() API is done for making use of animations in an uninterrupted manner. The operation is quite smooth and quick. This API works only in the browser it is compatible with. In the earlier versions like IE9, jQuery makes use of previous API as the only source to display animations.
With the help of jQuery 3, developers will be able to construct websites which are featured with extra security. With this functionality, dataType “script” can be used in place of $.ajax() and $.get().
jQuery 3 brings ample number of advanced features to the library. It has made its esteemed place in the realm of modern web development owing to an advanced set of features. This post covers the major changes that the upgraded version will feature. So, it is the right time to implement the advanced version of the framework for designing a modern and updated website for your business.

Discussion in 'New to Saltwater & Reef Aquariums? Post Here' started by gcrance, Jun 13, 2016.
So getting ready to buy the house i currently live in and were trying to get some ideas of who people have and how they have insured their home with a large aquarium in it.
I don't have a large tank (roughly 100 gallons) but when we got the new tank the first thing I did was call my insurance agent. Told them what we were doing and they added a rider to our policy for a negligible amount which covers us in the event of a catastrophic break.
Mine is covered under the homeowners.
Mine is also covered via the homeowners policy, but oddly just for the tank and any damage caused. The livestock is not. It's a great topic and any one with a tank really should check their policy.
Scubafrog and Diesel like this.
I called many insurance companies last year, they don't cover livestock, and they are tricky about what they actually cover.
The only way you can get things covered, is no matter what happens you would have to say something along the lines of "I was an idiot and left the hose running". Because they are covering you, not "manufacturer negligence" in a tank failure or equipment failure.
I spent hours on the phone with different agents, they are sneaky in the way they break things down and the wording.
fuzzbunny, Amps Reef Life, Lonny and 2 others like this.
I had my house burn down and the standard homeowners covered everything except live stock ($100 maximum on "pets"). I will say, Cincinnati Insurance is the absolute best. No questions asked, just paid me for everything I listed including live rock, live sand etc. Wow, does all the stuff you add to the tank over the years add up when you do it all at once!!!!
fuzzbunny, Lonny and Jeff.:P:. like this.
Thanks for this thread, calling my insurance agent now lol.
My insurance cover tank and live Stock also corals.
But only If the power goes out, someting fails like the Pump or Chiller. If the glass breaks and water get on the floor.
Im not covered If its my own fault or the equipment is old and has a High change af failing.
I live in denmark. We checked up on it like to weeks ago hence the the Price on fish and corals starting to add up.
Sounds to me that you are paying for nothing because what is to old 30 days? If left as a judgement call on the person writing a check it will be as short as possible.
Its allready included it the insurance for the rest of the house. So aint paying ekstra for it.
I guess out of Warrenty would Conclude the product as old depending on What it is.. but yes that part is tricky.
Good luck getting the actual coverage when the time comes. As a manufacturer I was covered up to 2 million for the aquariums we manufactured. But...when we investigated making a claim for a $60,000.00 dollar loss on a large project the company responded by filing for declaritory relief which is a nice way of saying they sued my company for investigating a claim for coverage. The outside investagator hired by the insurance company found for my company but we could not afford to defend ourselves from the large, agressive, insurance company. They just buried us in lawyers. Nice. Insurance companies are only good at taking your premiums. My company never had made an actual claim we were just investagating our coverage. In the end my company absorbed the loss as a write off and moved on. Oh yes and I fired the insurance company and took my business elsewhere. Never depend on an insurance company for things they are not use to covering. You should be prepared to cover the loss on your own or only build a system you can afford to replace or walk away from.
Just a suggestion by someone who has been there and done that.
DSC reef, DonnieD, Lonny and 1 other person like this.
If I were you I would try to get something in writing. Reason I seen something similar (was not reef related was music related) where equipment was insured then the place caught fire (faulty equipment) and the insurance denied coverage saying the items had to be in new condition to be covered and as soon as the equipment was packaged it would be deemed as used.
I spoke with my insurance company today (State Farm - Homeowners policy) They informed me that the house would be covered if there was a tank failure. No livestock would be covered but the tank would be. What was interesting is that it is only covered if the tank was broken 'as in a kid throwing a baseball.' Nothing would be covered if there was a slow leak or mold due to the slow leak.
Carefully read your policy. Understand insurance companies like to make money and the odds are in the insurance companies favors. This is how the policies are written. This is were the rider comes in, and the language of the rider is really spells out what is covered basically protects you. So what if it cost you and extra per year. That is your extended coverage.
This is an interesting thread. I once dropped a cell phone in a lake and when I called my carrier and told them that the very, very, nice lady on the phone said " So your phone was stolen".
Wording is everything when filing a claim. Good to know we can extend some measure of safety from our homeowners or renters insurance.
Yes if you get mold from a leaky tank it is easier to remove said tank and say we had a plumbing leak (dont mention from a fish tank) and boom your covered. | 2019-04-19T01:16:16Z | https://www.reef2reef.com/threads/aquarium-insurance.253147/ |

The IUEDAC has several procedures which are useful for displaying and editing low and (NEWSIPS) high dispersion spatially resolved spectra (hereafter termed the line-by-line spectra), as well as procedures which allow users to re-extract the slit integrated spectra from the line-by-line files.
Please keep in mind that older IUESIPS line-by-line files have 55 lines, while more recently processed files (i.e., since 1-Oct-1985) have 110 lines. The older line-by-line spectral files are generally referred to as LBLS files, and the new files as ELBL (where ``E'' stands for ``extended''). For NEWSIPS, SILO files have 80 lines and SIHI files are 768 line images. | 2019-04-24T04:01:46Z | https://archive.stsci.edu/iue/manual/dacguide/node63.html |

When comparing the two, lots of people think about speed. 5g is being touted as providing speeds of up to 20Gbps (although in reality it will probably be a lot lower than this). Still, when compared NBNs current top speed of 100Mbps, its easy to get caught in the “5g is going to be so fast hype”. But today I would like to step away from that and discuss other considerations in the 5g vs NBN debate.
There is no denying, speed is king. But speed is affected by a few factors for example -“Contention”; that is, how many people are you sharing the service with at a particular time?
Fixed networks like NBN can have their contention fixed so you can find out how many houses in your area are sharing certain parts of infrastructure. This is built in to the price and speed expectations. Mobile networks are different. At its most basic, consider our 5g 20Gbps. What happens when you are at the MCG with 50 thousand, 60 thousand, 70 thousand other people? Sure 5g will be better than 4g in this instance but the real point is, the speed you get in real life will depend on many factors including environmental.
Speed isn’t the only thing to consider when thinking about how good a connection is. Depending on what you are doing online, Latency is also important. Latency (also referred to as ping) is the time it takes between a request being sent and a response being received back. It is measured in Milliseconds. And while Milliseconds may seem insignificant, they can make a big difference (and not just to gamers!).
For instance, a high ping can cause choppy or disrupted HD Movie playback. On a good day ADSL type internet and 4g latency is normally between 30-50ms. NBN ping can be between 1-10ms. 5g is being quoted at 1-2ms – but we will have to wait and see for real world results. Based on this, 5g would seem to have an advantage when it comes to response times.
Another consideration is cost of data. This is perhaps the most important aspect of the comparison. And while we do not have any concrete price listings on 5g internet, we can compare current 4g offerings, its not a bad assumption that the prices are not going to be cheaper. They will be at least the same if not more expensive.
Lets cut to the chase. NBN has a clear advantage here. You can get Unlimited data on NBN plans starting at $65 per month. Compare this to 4g internet which ranges from $20 for 5gig to $40 for 30gig (30gig represents about 10 hours of HD Netflix content – or 2.5 hours of UHD content). We have to assume 5g prices and limits are going to be comparable.
Then there is timing. If things go to plan, the NBN rollout will be finished in 2021. We wont see any real 5g availability until 2020 – and then it will only be in Metropolitan areas. And, if you think the NBN has been expensive to roll out, the estimated cost to cover Australia with 5g is around $300billion!
Bottom line is, NBN and 5g can and will exist in harmony, just as NBN and 4g does. It is not reasonable to expect 5g to fix all your data needs – but at the same time, we will need it.
Additional: Don’t let the hype fool you in to thinking these connections are acceptable for your business! NBN and Wireless internet are great, don’t get us wrong. But it’s important to remember that speed and data limits are not the most important things in this case. Business grade internet exists to keep your business going at all times. Lower Contention and most importantly Service Level Agreements (i.e. guaranteed uptime / no disruption of service) are paramount. This is why your business pays a premium. If something goes wrong, your provider is contractually obligated to get you back up and running within specified time frames. The provider also spends more time and money on infrastructure to ensure they meet uptime obligations. NBN and Mobile internet have no SLA's.. if something goes wrong, you can be offline for days at a time - if not longer. | 2019-04-21T02:44:23Z | https://www.nationalitsolutions.com.au/news/5g-vs-nbn |
I don’t like people who present problems without suggesting solutions. So, I realize I owe poor Steve Barrett, editor of PR Week, an apology since I did just that in yesterday’s blog.
In my column, I decried PR Week’s increasing obsession with all things global, namely the holding companies and the intergalactic corporations they represent. Perhaps most disturbing of all, though, was PR Week’s recent decision to name WPP’s Sir Martin Sorrell as our industry’s most powerful person. Naming Sorrell, who never spent a day practicing PR, our field’s top dude is akin to declaring A-Rod the winner of the Emily Post Annual Etiquette Award.
Ah, but I have a solution to PR Week’s obsessive compulsive behavior: Create a spin-off publication aimed at start-ups, boutiques, small and midsized agencies. Call it PR Week, Jr.
– Organization charts that don’t depict Ford Motor Company’s labyrinth-like dotted and straight lines but, rather Bob & Ray’s Deli management structure. At long last, we’ll learn whether bologna does, in fact, report to the CCO.
– An awards program in which FH, Weber, Edelman and Ketchum aren’t nominated for 27 awards each AND don’t have three finalists each in seven different categories.
– A cover story on the trials and tribulations of the CMO of a Boulder-based, Series A-funded technology start-up. That would be so relevant and refreshing in comparison to, say, the laugh out loud funny profile a few years back of Yahoo’s top PR guy in which he boasted, “I want the people at Google waking up each day and wondering what Yahoo’s up to, and not vice versa.” How’d that one work out for you, buddy?
Let the record show I’d be delighted to contribute an occasional PR Week, Jr. by-liner or engage in a heated debate about the future of satellite media tours. I’d even consider shelling out bucks for a print ad.
It seems to me PR Week has reached a tipping point: the content is becoming more and more elitist, and less and less relevant. And, here’s the larger problem: for all of their bravado about covering what’s new and next, Barrett & Co. are completely overlooking the engine of America’s recovery, small business.
PR Week, Jr. could fill that void, and champion the Burson-Marstellers, Golins and FHs of tomorrow. But, they won’t. Why fix what they don’t think is broken?
Ah, but one can dream. And, right now, I’ve got my sights set on being named PR Week, Jr’s. Most Powerful Person of the Year 2020. And, unlike Sir Martin, I’ll be able to say I actually practiced public relations.
One final note: I’d be delighted to play host to any PR Week representative who’s willing to debate this very real, and very serious, problem on RepTV, my highly acclaimed, if seldom viewed, web series. Any takers?
Michael: How about we put our heads together and create The Michael & Steve Newsletter (for everyone else)? Diana: We are, indeed, a sttrategic communications firm but the bulk of our billings still comes from PR. Hence my concern.
I thought Peppercomm was a global integrated communications company with a small bit of PR?
There will never be a PR Week Jr. because PR Week has turned pandering to the large holding companies who sponsor trade magazine activity into an art form. Your concept will be created by hungry, knowledgeable trade journalists who recognize that a separate, innovative editorial department can live side by side with a publishing/bus dev team who knows how to sell to readers and paying advertisers. And that never happens at the industry behemoth. Outspoken independent trade rags are the ones worthy of attention and investment. They’re the ones who know Sir Martin coverage just isn’t that interesting anymore.
Nice job. PR, Jr. has a stunning resemblance to Flat Stanley with a mustache. | 2019-04-18T21:13:05Z | http://www.repmanblog.com/repman/2014/07/pr-week-jr.html |

Hardness limits are commonly used to control the risk of cracking in ferritic steel pipelines carrying sour products. The necessary hardness limits are dependent on the hydrogen concentration in the steel, which, with single sided exposure, is much higher adjacent to the sour environment than near the free surface. Thus it has been demonstrated in laboratory work that considerably higher hardnesses are tolerable on the outsides of pipelines carrying sour products, and this effect is recognised, in terms of relaxed limits for capping passes, in BS4515 and EFC 16. The hydrogen concentration near the outer surface of such a pipe will, however, be affected by cathodic polarisation, which would be expected to restrict hydrogen egress. A programme of work has therefore been carried out to determine safe hardness levels on the outsides of pipelines carrying sour products, in the presence of externally applied cathodic protection. Despite severe test conditions, high hardness levels were shown to be resistant to cracking, and the increased confidence given by the new data has allowed further relaxations to the current hardness levels permitted for cap passes in standards to be recommended.
For a pipeline carrying a sour product, the hydrogen concentration in the steel due to corrosion will be greatest at the inner surface. It would be expected that diffusion through the wall will take place with evolution of hydrogen from the external surface, so that the peak hydrogen level in this region will be appreciably lower. Hence, the risk of cracking at the external surface may also be reduced relative to the inner wall, and a higher hardness limit may be acceptable.
Studies [2-4] have confirmed these effects and have formed the basis of the hardness limits propounded in BS4515 , which permits the external hardness of linepipe welds carrying sour products to be up to 275-300HV (depending on wall thickness). Similarly, 275HV is recommended as a safe external hardness in EFC publication No 16 . The earlier work employed full scale ring samples, stressed by internal jacking and containing a severe environment, and in fact, external hardness levels well above 300HV were found to be tolerable without causing cracking, so that this limit has been considered conservative. However, it must be recognised that in service, the external surface of linepipe would normally be subject to cathodic polarisation (CP) to provide protection from the seawater or other external environment. This may restrict hydrogen egress from the outer surface, and thus, lead to a higher hydrogen content.
In the absence of published data on the significance of this effect, the present work was carried out to determine whether current limits are still conservative.
The experimental programme comprised two phases. The first phase consisted of the production, exposure to sour NACE solution and examination for cracking of five ring test specimens. These specimens had a number of longitudinal, single pass bead on plate (BOP) welds on the external surfaces. In the second phase a validation test was performed under identical test conditions to those of phase 1, but using a specimen incorporating a centrally located full penetration girth weld. Additional hard zones were created on the second phase ring test piece by the deposition of further BOP welds and from the attachment of studs by underwater friction welding.
Five different pipe samples were selected for inclusion in the phase 1 exposure trials, following single bead weld deposit trials, designed to ensure a hardenability response covering the range 300-400HV5. The pipe samples selected had wall thicknesses from 17 to 25mm, diameters from 356 to 914mm, and had been manufactured to either API 5L X52 or X60 specifications. Details of the pipe dimensions, strength and chemical compositions are given in Table 1.
The validation test was undertaken using a sample from one of the five pipes (IC4040) included in the phase 1 trials. The wall thickness of this pipe, as supplied, was 18mm. This was reduced to 9.5mm by machining the outer wall surface after a light skimming cut had been made to centralise the bore.
Test cells were produced from pipe sections assembled to produce a leak-proof container with a rigidly fixed lid. Short lengths of pipe 350-600mm long, were sawn, then lathe turned, to produce square end faces. One end of each ring was further machined to reduce the wall thickness to 3mm for a distance of approximately 100mm. These reduced wall thickness ends, which would ultimately form the base of the test cell, were then capped with a 3mm thick steel disc, a leak-proof joint being obtained by circumferential welding. It was established, using strain gauges, that the stress distribution within the ring test piece was not influenced by this sealing technique.
The lids of the test cells were constructed from either 10mm thick steel or 20mm thick perspex. The steel lids were centrally fitted with a 200mm diameter, 10mm thick, perspex window. This window allowed inspection of the interior of the test cell during the exposure period, as well as providing access for filling with solution and for gas inlet and outlet pipes. A gas-tight seal was obtained on the test cells by pulling the lids down against a flexible sealing ring after stressing, using bolts tapped into the wall of the test pipe, or by applying heavy weights.
In phase 1, each ring test piece was produced with four different hard zones on the outer pipe surface, [ Fig.1]. Each hard zone consisted of three separate deposits approximately 100mm long. The locations of these deposits were such that different, but known, stress levels could be applied to each weld in any one quadrant. The hard zones had aim HAZ hardness levels of 300, 350, 375 and 400 HV5. The welding process was mechanised MAG using 1.0mm diameter Bostrand LW1 filler and CO2 shielding. The welding conditions were selected from initial trials, to give appropriate hardness levels.
Bead on plate deposits were also made on the validation test piece of phase 2. Two beads approximately 150mm long were deposited at three locations on the outer pipe surface. The bead locations corresponded with the 90% yield position when the ring was stressed. Each pair of weld beads was displaced from the girth weld by at least 25mm to avoid reheating. The aim hardness levels were 350, 375 and 450HV5. The welding process was the same as for the phase 1 deposits.
The full penetration girth weld used to manufacture the validation ring test piece, Fig.2, was produced using a narrow groove weld preparation following established practice. This preparation had a root face of 1.5mm, a root radius of 2.5mm and an included angle of 6° with no root gap. A copper backing bar with a shallow groove was fitted. The welding process was mechanised MAG and welding position was pipe horizontal (1G) i.e. rotated. Bostrand LW1 filler was used with CO2 shielding.
Three passes were required to fill the joint. On completion of the capping pass, and after the weld had cooled, a further two circumferential beads were deposited, one at each weld toe on the outer pipe surface. The arc energies of these two additional beads were adjusted such that the associated HAZ regions had hardness levels, estimated from welding trials, in one case of ~350HV, in the other 375-400HV. Similarly, arc energy and preheat conditions for the root pass were adjusted to give an estimated HAZ hardness level of <250HV.
For the validation test only, additional hard zones were produced by attaching studs using the underwater friction welding process. Six, threaded (½" UNC), solid carbon steel studs were attached to the outer surface of the assembled ring piece. These were located in two groups of three each side of the girth weld at the 90% yield position and in a line parallel to the pipe length, [ Fig.2]. One group of studs was welded following an established procedure for this type of welding in which a polystyrene shield produces an insulating gas shield when heated. The second set were welded with the shield missing and had as a result a faster cooling rate and significantly higher HAZ hardness levels. The studs were placed approximately 75mm apart and such that none were within 25mm of the toes of the circumferential weld. All the underwater friction welding was performed by a specialist contractor, Circle Technical Services Limited.
Stressing of the ring test pieces was by means of an internally fitted screw jack mechanism, which contacted the pipe wall through two diametrically opposed anvils. For the phase 1 test pieces the anvils were 150mm long and had a square section with 50mm sides. The anvils used for the validation ring test were, of necessity, more substantial with cross section dimensions of 75mm and length 450mm. The screw jacks and anvils were made of carbon steel. One face of each anvil was 'V' shaped (included angle of 120° and a radius of 2mm) to give a line contact with the pipe wall. The larger anvils had a shallow groove ground across the 'V' shape at the mid-length to prevent localised contact with the girth weld root pass penetration. The steel screw jacks remained in place throughout the exposure period and were not protected against corrosive attack.
Individual ring pieces were stressed by manual operation of the screw jacks before the test cells were sealed. Loading continued until it was determined, from strain gauges bonded to the outer pipe wall in the immediate vicinity of the anvils, that yield stress had been reached at that location. The micro strain requirement at the pipe surface was calculated for each pipe material from yield stress values [ Table 1] reported by the manufacturer, or determined, as part of this project using small tensile test pieces.
The assembled test cells, comprising circumferentially stressed ring pieces and gas tight lids, were loaded into tanks for exposure to artificial seawater solution. The volume of seawater was at least equal to the displacement volume of the test cell. The tanks were filled with artificial seawater to a level approximately 50mm below the top of the test cell and covering the weld deposits. Cathodic protection (see below) was initiated and the potential allowed to stabilise for a period of 48 hours. The test cells were filled to within 10mm of the lids with sour test solution to NACE TM0177 Method A, using 5% sodium chloride with 0.5% acetic acid and sealed. De-oxygenation of the NACE solution was undertaken in-situ in the phase 1 tests because of the relatively large volumes used. This was achieved by streaming nitrogen gas through the test cells for approximately 72hrs. For the phase 2 validation test, de-oxygenation was carried out in a separate vessel and the solution transferred to the test cell under a covering of nitrogen. The H 2S gas flow through the test cells then commenced. The flow rate was initially approximately 5 litres/min for the first 24hrs. This was subsequently reduced to approximately 0.5 litres/min for the remainder of the 720hr exposure period. Exposure testing was conducted at room temperature. On completion of exposure testing the cells were purged with nitrogen gas for 24-48hrs, to flush out H 2S from the NACE solution and gas lines and enable safe handling, then drained and dismantled.
All the test cells in both phases were individually subjected to potentiostatically controlled cathodic protection at an impressed potential of -1100mV, relative to a Ag/AgCl reference electrode. A 2-3 metre length of 0.5mm diameter platinum wire was used as an anode. This wire was suspended in the seawater, using plastic hangers, around the outer circumference of the test cell and at a similar depth to the weld deposits. The distance of the anode wire from the ring surface varied from 50 to 100mm. The impressed potential was allowed to stabilise over a 48hr period before H 2S gas was introduced into the NACE solution. Cathodic protection was maintained throughout the 720hr exposure period.
All the test cells were checked daily, excluding weekends, to ensure that the original set conditions were maintained. These checks included ensuring the continuation of H 2S gas flow, of cathodic protection at the required potential and the monitoring and recording of temperature variations in the test containment laboratory. For the phase 1 ring test series the pH of the NACE solution at the start of testing, prior to H 2S streaming, was 2.5, that of the seawater in the outer cells 8.2. On completion of the 30 day exposure period the pH of the NACE solution in two of the test cells (4 & 5) were measured, and values of 3.4 and 3.6 respectively were recorded; the corresponding pH of the seawater was 6.4. Hydrogen sulphide concentrations measured in the NACE solution of the same two test cells after 10 days exposure were 3614ppm and 4100ppm respectively. For the phase 2 validation test the pH of the NACE and seawater solutions at test initiation was 2.8 and 8.3 respectively; on completion of the exposure period these were 3.5 and 7.3 respectively. Monitoring of the time for hydrogen evolution in individual ring pieces was not undertaken. However it is known from previous work undertaken at TWI and elsewhere that, for the type of test conditions employed in this project, hydrogen evolution occurs some 12-48 hours after the initiation of H 2S flow.
Segments of the ring test pieces from phase 1 containing hard zones were extracted by flame cutting from the test cells and subjected to magnetic particle inspection (MPI) for evidence of cracking. Care was taken during the flame cutting to prevent any excessive heating of the weld zone regions, which might have influenced their physical properties, in particular, the hardness levels. Following MPI inspection and visual examination of the inner and outer pipe surfaces in the weld regions, individual weld beads and associated HAZ, were extracted from the pipe segments by cold sawing. Initially, a single transverse section from the mid-length position of each weld deposit was prepared to a 6µm diamond finish. One further transverse section was taken from the hardest HAZ region of each pipe. Examination of all sections for cracking and blistering was conducted firstly with the prepared surface in the 'as polished' condition, then secondly, after light etching in 2% nital. On completion of the metallographic examination, hardness surveys, (Vickers HV5), were made of the hard zones.
The girth weld region of the validation test piece was examined ultrasonically after exposure testing, and before sectioning. The ring piece was then sectioned and subjected to MPI inspection of both inner and outer weld surfaces. Transverse weld sections were extracted from the girth weld, BOP deposits and friction welds. The girth weld sections were taken from regions subjected to 100% and 90% yield stress at the weld cap surface. The BOP sections were extracted at approximately mid-length position. Transverse section through the friction welds were taken centrally. Sections were prepared as previously for metallographic examination and hardness surveys were conducted in the hardened regions.
No crack like type defects were identified by either visual or MPI examination of the outer pipe surface in the weld regions, although indications believed to be due to weld cold laps were reported in the toe regions at the weld start positions in some deposits. None of the weld zones in this phase of the project were subjected to ultrasonic examination. The results of metallographic sectioning confirmed the presence of weld toe intrusions in several of the sections examined. It was evident from the nucleation of ferrite on the surfaces of these features that they arose from the welding operation, and are not corrosion related.
No evidence of any hydrogen assisted stress corrosion cracking was revealed by any of the various examinations carried out. The results also indicate that, for the test conditions employed in this phase of the project, the five pipe materials assessed have substantial resistance to hydrogen pressure induced cracking (HPIC). Indeed, the worst example of this type of cracking was an isolated 340µm crack associated with W17 in pipe No.Ex-621982. This particular feature was located beneath the root of the weld deposit at approximately 10mm from the outer pipe surface and 7mm from the weld fusion boundary.
The results of hardness surveys are presented in Table 2. Hardness levels of over 390 HV were achieved and stressed to 90% yield in all pipes.
An initial visual examination of the weld zones on both external and internal pipe surface of the test piece did not reveal the presence of any surface breaking cracks although hydrogen blistering was noted on the inner pipe surface, [ Fig.3a]. Further examination by MPI indicated the presence of numerous transverse cracks in the root weld metal, [ Fig.3b]. In places these cracks extend into the weld HAZ. These transverse cracks were present throughout the complete circumferential length of the root pass although the frequency increased in those regions placed in tension during exposure testing. In addition cracking associated with hydrogen blistering was noted, [ Fig.3a]. An ultrasonic examination of the girth weld zone conducted on the outer pipe surface did not indicate any crack like defects in the weld metal or HAZ regions. The results of MPI and ultrasonic examinations made of the validation test piece are summarised in Table 3.
No evidence of hydrogen assisted cracking was observed in eternal regions in metallographic sections through the girth, bead on plate, or friction stud welds. Weld toe intrusions were observed in the root pass and capping passes in some girth weld sections, but in all cases they were associated with the welding process.
For the girth weld capping pass, hardness levels up to 447HV5 were measured whilst 429HV5 was measured under one of the friction stud welds. A peak HAZ hardness of 432HV was recorded in the BOP welds.
At the beginning of this programme, a body of data existed which had been generated in earlier research projects. On the basis of these data, relaxations of up to 50HV are currently allowed for external regions of sour service pipelines. The basis of these relaxations is that with single-sided exposure, steel near the surface remote from the environment, from which hydrogen is escaping, will have a lower hydrogen content than that adjacent to the environment, and thus should be able to tolerate higher hardness. The previous experimental data [2-4] had confirmed this theory, and indeed the apparently safe hardness levels were well in excess of the currently permitted 300HV.
In the more recent work [3,4] , hard zones of up to 396HV were created on the outer wall surfaces of samples of API 5L X52 line-pipe containing sour solution. Test pieces were stressed to 100% yield strength. With the exception of one test piece in which sour solution leakage had contaminated the outer pipe surface, no cracking was recorded. Prior to this, Robinson performed a series of similar tests but without applied load. Cracking was generated in some welds but only in those having hardness levels of between 411 and 427HV. Clearly hardness levels of 400HV are unlikely to be acceptable for pipeline fabrication, and some margin between experimental data and permitted hardness would be advisable. Nevertheless, 100HV is a very large margin, and hardness of up to 350HV are permitted for cap HAZ regions in non-sour service by BS4515.
One consideration in relaxing the 100HV margin between experimentally demonstrated safe hardnesses and permitted hardnesses would be a concern over the possible effect of cathodic polarisation on hydrogen escape from the external surface. In the previous experimental work, the external surfaces had been dry and open to atmosphere, whereas operating pipelines are generally coated and/or wet, with cathodic polarisation for corrosion protection.
The present work has demonstrated that even with -1100mV cathodic polarisation, HAZ hardness levels of above 400HV near the outer surface are resistant to cracking in the presence of NACE TM0177 method A solution inside a pipe. In assessing these results, the pipe wall thickness needs to be taken into account, as the steepness of the hydrogen concentration gradient will be affected by this. Hydrogen concentration at one bead depth below the outer surface will be higher in a thinner pipe, due to the steeper gradient, and thus safe hardness levels would be expected to be lower. For this reason, the relaxation in BS4515 is limited to pipes of wall thickness greater than or equal to the minimum used to generate the experimental data [3,4] , namely 9.5mm. In the first phase of the present work the thinnest pipe wall tested was 17mm, but applicability of the results down to the current limit of 9.5mm has been confirmed by the Phase 2 trial, in which HAZs of over 400HV were shown to be resistant to cracking.
One aspect which has been tested to a limited degree by the Phase 2 trial is weld metal hardness. The two capping runs, added to generate the desired HAZ hardnesses, had weld metal hardnesses of up to 269HV5. These runs will have had high longitudinal residual stresses, and were additionally stressed in this direction by the ovalisation, and did not crack. (All previous trials have employed longitudinal oriented welds with overfill intact, so that the ovalisation will not have stressed the weld metal regions as severely as possible). Although it is not necessarily possible to apply HAZ hardness limits to weld metals, the margin between experimental HAZ limits and the highest weld metal hardness which has resisted cracking is such that one can have some confidence that this weld metal value is some way below the threshold for cracking.
The other hard zone which has been investigated in this work is that induced by underwater friction welded studs. Again, HAZ regions of over 400HV have been found to be resistant to cracking.
One unexpected result of the Phase 2 test was the presence of transverse cracking in the weld root. This was mostly in weld metal, but some extended into HAZ material, generally associated with blisters. The root weld metal hardness was below 250HV (243HV5 maximum). This cracking did not affect the testing of the external region, which was the focus of the project, and has not been investigated in any detail. It may be remarked, however, that there have previously been indications that hardness limits for C-Mn weld metals may be lower than for HAZs in sour service and therefore lower limits may need to be specified for weld metal directly exposed to sour environments. The cracking in the present case does provide some confirmation that the test environment was aggressive and hydrogen charging.
The simplest option in all cases would be to allow the same cap hardness for sweet and sour service. For HAZs in pipe of 9.5mm wall thickness and above, the quantity of data, and the size of the difference between the current sweet service limits and experimental thresholds are such that this approach can be recommended.
Below 9.5mm wall thickness there are no experimental data, and greater caution would be advisable. Nevertheless, the fact that cathodic polarisation has little effect on hardness thresholds at higher wall thickness is encouraging, and at least does not imply that permitted hardness levels should be reduced for cathodically protected pipe.
For weld metals, experimental thresholds are not well defined, and there is a concern that weld metals may be more susceptible to cracking than HAZs. Nevertheless, the data generated in this work do not cause any concern over the current 275HV10 limit.
The results of this project also gave confidence in the use of underwater friction welding as a means of attaching studs. There are currently no specific hardness limits for this process in either sweet or sour service, and only limited service experience, however, and it is therefore premature to set a hardness limit.
A programme of work has been carried out to investigate tolerable hardness levels on the outsides of X52 and X60 pipelines of 9.5-25mm wall thickness carrying sour media, which are also subjected to external cathodic polarisation. The internal test medium was NACE TM0177 method A solution, and cathodic polarisation was applied at -1100mV, Ag/AgCl. Test welds consisted of bead on plate runs, friction welded studs, and a girth weld. Samples were stressed, by ovalising, to 100% actual parent material yield stress in hardened areas. No cracking was induced in hardened external regions in any of the test specimens, and as a result the following conclusions can be drawn.
Peak HAZ hardness levels of over 400HV are resistant to hydrogen cracking under the combined influence of NACE TM0177 method A solution on the opposite steel surface, and cathodic polarisation of -1100 mV, Ag/AgCl on the hardened surface, at applied stress levels of up to 100% actual parent material yield stress. This conclusion is applicable to steels of 9.5mm wall thickness and above.
Peak weld metal hardnesses of up to at least 269HV are resistant to cracking under the same conditions as for conclusion 1.
Threshold weld metal hardnesses for root regions in contact with NACE TM0177 method A solution are <243HV5.
Work is required to explore safe weld metal hardness limits for operation in sour service.

Junior Philip Doan progressed the furthest for the Titans, lasting six rounds to reach the top 12 of the 138-pound bracket. He edged a pair of Central Coast Section opponents before dropping a major decision to eventual fifth place finisher Bryce Dauphin of Tuttle, OK. Tuttle won the team title.
Seniors Dash Lee and Tim Waymouth made it to the second day of competition. At 182, Lee earned a fall and a major decision but was defeated by the state’s 10th-ranked wrestler.
Before the blood round, Lee wrestled a great match against Buchanan’s Caden Rodgers. Trailing 4-2 in the third period, Lee escaped and nearly took down the Buchanan wrestler in the closing seconds, who had already received a stall warning.
Waymouth wrestled with grit at 145, which had such tough competition that even the top seeded wrestler from Bullard, a two time state placer, finished sixth.
Waymouth ended his run with a 2-2 record, with close decision losses to Landin of Frontier and Sekhon of Central. Both Landin and Sekhon are top 20 ranked wrestlers in state.
Senior Koh Suzuki also finished with a 2-2 record. Drawing Gilroy’s Noah Castro in the first round, Suzuki put forth a strong effort but ultimately was unable to pull the upset. In the wrestlebacks, Suzuki racked up two pins before falling to Bergstron of Foothill. | 2019-04-23T15:23:39Z | https://gunnathletics.com/2019/01/28/gunn-wrestles-at-the-midcal-tournament/ |

Problem: Static electricity, tiny particles, and corrosion can damage sensitive electronic components during production. Special precautions must be taken in Electronics Manufacturing Service (EMS) industries to provide electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection, limit the number and size of particles in cleanrooms, and prevent corrosion.
Despite tight controls, workbenches and trays may lack ESD-safe properties and require additional ESD protection before coming in contact with parts. ESD foam is commonly used to interleave layers of components stacked in deep trays for transport to the next stage of assembly or inspection. However, this foam may lack needed strength to keep parts from pinching each other when stacked many inches deep for highest transfer efficiency. Components will also be at risk for flash corrosion if the foam lacks corrosion inhibitors.
be used to create temporary work surfaces. If the ESD properties of a workbench are uncertain, a simple solution is to lay a piece of EcoSonic ESD Paper on the surface to create an ESD-safe work-space. Electronic components and tools can then be laid on the temporary work surface, shielded from potential static discharge.
EcoSonic® ESD Paper is useful for lining trays and interleaving components in multiple layers for more efficient transport. EcoSonic® ESD Paper protects the components from static electricity and keeps parts from physically touching and damaging each other from layer to layer. The strength of the paper will allow many parts to be layered on top of each other without the same puncture or pinching concerns that arise with ESD foam.
EcoSonic ESD paper protects parts from corrosion through Vapor phase Corrosion Inhibitors (VpCI) in the paper coating. VpCI molecules vaporize from the coating and adsorb on metal surfaces enclosed in the paper, forming a microscopic protective layer on ferrous and non-ferrous metal components. When the parts are unwrapped, the VpCI molecules evaporate, leaving the components uncontaminated and free of corrosion.
EcoSonic ESD Paper conforms to performance specification MIL-PRF-3420H (VCI treated wrapping materials, opaque) and also provides contact and barrier phase corrosion inhibition. It is effective against galvanic corrosion and aggressive humid, SO2, and H2S environments. The paper is non-toxic; free of nitrites, phosphates, and silicates; biodegradable; and fully recyclable. | 2019-04-25T12:50:42Z | http://digital.cemag.us/controlledenvironments/november_december_2017?pg=25 |
Given that our practical knowledge to effectively intervene in climate adaptation is definitely lacking, the writing of the National Adaptation Plan (NAP) may be largely constrainedby grounded and demonstrated knowledge.
Oct 25, 2015-It is a dream come true for Sane Damai and his wife of Ghoksila, Sindhuli to be able to grow paddy on their land as they could never imagine such a thing in the past due to the scarcity of water. Likewise, Dor Prasad of the same village has lately ventured into growing horticultural crops like pomegranate and mango on his field which is fairly dry. Santosh Thapa has started a number of ventures like rearing goats and growing vegetables on his farm. These developments became possible after the village drinking water supply was augmented lately by extending the main pipe that brings water all the way from Mahabharat Lekh. This had become necessary because the original source at Chapa Khola nearby had virtually dried up, leaving the people desperate situation. The project was mainly meant to supply drinking water, but some innovative people like Sane have made use of the surplus water for other purposes.
The newly-installed water scheme has brought relief to the villagers whose life has been made hard by adversities like climate change, water scarcity, frequent droughts and recurrent crop failures. Many of those who can afford to move have already left the village for the valley floor or elsewhere because of the water scarcity. While cases like that of Sane may give hope to others residing in Ghoksila, the area is still far from being a pleasant place to live. This is the reason why the village sees constant out-migration which has been further heightened by the recent devastating earthquake. Not many villagers are as farsighted as Sane to benefit from the new opportunities brought by the water supply. Large swathes of the more than 1,200 ropanis of agricultural fields in the village lie virtually abandoned. Many of the farms are owned by absentee landlords.
The examples of innovative people cited above may have encouraged others to follow suit, but constraints remain with water scarcity being the main problem. Providing irrigation facilities, which requires the diversion of water from the Ghoksila Khola to the parched village, is a priority. This could open up opportunities in agriculture, horticulture, livestock and fishery. Innovative ideas from people like Sane may be useful for generating confidence among the rest of the villagers. If simultaneous efforts in the education and health sectors are made, the health of the villagers would also improve. People will then have no reason to leave the village, and even those who had moved out may return. Those who do not want to come back to the village can be persuaded to rent out their fields for a nominal payment to poor farmers, thus creating a win-win situation.
While bringing water from the Ghoksila Khola by building irrigation channels may provide relief to the villagers from the present crisis, it is not a long-term solution. The water level in the Ghoksila Khola could drop in the future because of climate change and inappropriate land use systems in its major catchment areas like Khaniya Kharka and Naya Kharka. There will thus be very little water left in the river to make harnessing projects viable unless the current depletion trend can be effectively checked. This calls for cautious intervention to revive the condition of the watershed along with attempts to harness the water and put it to optimum use.
The climate change projects being implemented in the country could borrow ideas from the example in Ghoksila. For instance, the National Adaptation Programmes of Action and Local Adaptation Plans of Action under the National Climate Change Support Programme have been intervening in a number of hill districts in western Nepal. While the project intends to support local communities to adapt to climate change, the interventions are more of a piecemeal in nature than the required holistic approach. Sporadic gully control, catchment ponds, small-scale irrigation and plantations are the type of activities they have been running, and they are far from adequate for the local people in the catchment areas to be able to adapt to climate change. While the project does not rule out the possibility of irrigation, it is not the focus of the intervention effort.
Likewise, the project pays little attention to watershed conservation without which a sustained flow of water will not be possible, thus making it totally irrelevant for any purpose including irrigation. Building climate resilience of the watershed in mountain eco-regions is another project which is being implemented in western Nepal with the support of the Asian Development Bank. This project has put some emphasis on catchment conservation, but refrains from supporting the local communities to harness the water, a key aspect of climate adaptation. Thus, both the projects seem to be short-sighted towards their idea of improving community resilience to climate change.
The country now wants to take the climate adaptation issue further by preparing a National Adaptation Plan (NAP). Given that our practical knowledge to effectively intervene in climate adaptation is definitely lacking, the writing of the NAP may be largely constrained by grounded and demonstrated knowledge. So, the best idea would be to do a holistic piloting in improving climate resilience at the local level by focusing on some catchment areas such as the Ghoksila Khola. A mismatch between the politically determined village development committee boundaries and the geographically identified catchment-based boundaries is one of the major puzzles that needs to be solved while developing interventions. | 2019-04-18T13:30:39Z | http://kathmandupost.ekantipur.com/printedition/news/2015-10-25/harnessing-water.html |
A logo design and package design for The Green Tea Leaf, a beverage company that specializes in high quality, organic tea. They would have various cafes across the country and sell their own branded loose-leaf tea for customers to brew in their homes. The logo is supposed to be an abstract cup of tea viewed from the top. I used a rough brush in Adobe Illustrator for the lines to emphasize the organic nature of the company's tea. | 2019-04-22T10:00:29Z | https://www.jessriess.com/the-green-tea-leaf-branding |

This old fishing boat is beached on Tomales Bay in the town of Inverness. I’d seen photos of it before, but never had the opportunity to make my own images until this trip. I loved the reflection in the small creek flowing under the bow and knew that sunset would really add some pop to the scene. As I worked the area I was joined by a few other photographers and we enjoyed each other’s company as we created our own visions of the scene.
This classic lighthouse in Northern California has often been a favorite of mine. This particular image shows the last of the setting sun reflected on the tower and the light keeper’s house. I was perched on a narrow rocky point just north of the lighthouse itself, surround on three sides by the ocean waves and loving the glorious sunset we were gifted with this night.
Just when I thought I was through for the night, I noticed that the tower had suddenly been lit with exterior lights. I ran back out to my perch and framed the shot to include the striated rocks in the surf line below me. This is one of my favorite images of the entire trip.
My hometown of Coupeville is reflected in the still waters of Penn Cove at dawn. This is a single photograph cropped to a 1:3 ratio to focus the eye on the town, but leaving enough of the dramatic sky in place. This has been my most popular selling image, providing visitors and residents alike a reminder of just why we love Whidbey Island.
All of these images and more can be seen on my website - www.photowhidbey.com. Better yet, stop in to the Garry Oak Gallery on Pioneer Street in Oak Harbor and see the prints themselves on display. While you’re there, check out the work of all of the other artist members of the Gallery. We are proud to be a part of the community and the only art gallery in Oak Harbor.

After witnessing the harmful effects of chemical farming, Subash Palekar, a B.Sc in Agriculture, developed the Zero Budget Natural Farming model.
‘Krishi ka Rishi’ is the title farming communities across the country have bestowed on Subhash Palekar. This agriculturist is the creator of the ‘Zero Budget Natural Farming’ model, a method that has been creating waves in the farming community in India.
Palekar was born on 2nd February, 1949 in Belora, a small village in the district of Amravati, Maharastra. The son of a farmer, his interest in farming led him to pursue a B.Sc in Agriculture from Nagpur.
Palekar made his way back to his hometown in 1972 where, armed with the newly acquired knowledge his degree had given him, he began to advice his father on modern techniques of farming and urged him to use pesticides and chemical fertilizers. This led to an increase in crop yield that lasted more than a decade.
By 1985, however, Palekar began to notice a drop in yield; one that only got worse with each harvest. Curious about the sudden change, he began to look into the reasons for the decline. Three years of intensive research led him to the conclusion that chemical farming was the culprit. Palekar learnt that the use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides led to a decrease in the fertility of the soil, wrecked havoc on the ecosystem of the area and also led to long-term health problems for those who consumed the fruits, gains and vegetables harvested under such conditions.
Shocked by the harmful effects of chemical farming, Palekar began the hunt for less-destructive alternatives. Thus began the journey of Zero Budget Natural Farming in India.
From 1986 to 1988, Palekar’s quest for natural farming techniques led him to the study of forest vegetation. It was here that he discovered the natural system at work in forests which allowed them to develop and nurture themselves, while maintaining healthy ecosystems. After careful research of the system, Palekar began to mimic the techniques he had witnessed, in his own farm. For a period of six years, from 1989 to 1995, he experimented and verified different techniques, before consolidating them into the ‘Zero Budget Natural Farming’ technique.
It is believed that plants only receive 1.5% to 2% of their nutrient requirements from soil; the remaining is absorbed through water and air. Given that 98% of the nutrients do not come from soil, using fertilizers is not prudent.
We often come across huge trees in forests, their branches heavy with the weight of countless fruit despite the lack of fertilizers and pesticides. These trees are proof that plants can and do grow healthily without any chemical help.
The reason we do not witness the same in our farms is because the micro-organisms that convert raw nutrients into easy-to-digest form have been destroyed by the use of poisonous chemical fertilizers, insecticides and pesticides. Cultivation of soil by tractor has already proved to be detrimental to these micro-organisms.
Since these micro-organisms help convert nutrients into a digestible form that plants can absorb and use, it is critical to revive them in our farms. This can be done by using cow dung from local cows.
1. Only dung from local, Indian cows is effective on the soil. Dung from Jersey and Holstein cows is not as effective. If one is falling short of dung from local cows, one may use dung from bullocks or buffaloes.
2. Dung and urine of the black coloured Kapila cow is believed to be the most effective.
3. To get the most of the cow dung and urine, ensure that the dung is as fresh as possible and that the urine is as old as possible.
4. An acre of land requires 10 kilograms of local cow dung per month. Since the average cow gives 11 kilograms of dung a day, dung from one cow can help fertilize 30 acres of land.
5. Urine, jaggery and dicot flour can be used as additives.
6. The lesser milk the cow gives, the more beneficial its dung is towards reviving the soil.
More than 40 lakh farmers across the country have benefitted greatly from Palekar’s teachings and his method of natural farming. Palekar spends 25 days a month sharing his knowledge of farming through seminar, lectures, workshops and field visits. Chief Ministers of Andhra Pradesh and Kerala have also requested him to spend ten days a month in their states, in order to help their farmers develop healthy farming habits.
In 2016, in recognition of his work and the impact he was creating, the Government of India conferred Palekar with the prestigious Padamashri Award. Palekar also made history for being the first active farmer to receive the award.
Palekar’s Zero Budget Natural Farming has undoubtedly made an indelible mark on farming in India. | 2019-04-20T04:50:29Z | https://consumerresources.in/2017/05/14/this-farmer-won-the-padmashri-for-his-zero-budget-natural-farming-model/ |
