MILAN, Nov 6, 2024 – (JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) – Honda unveiled the world’s first* V3 motorcycle engine with an electrical compressor, at EICMA 2024 (the Milan Motorcycle Shows; Press days: November 5-6, Public days: November 7-10) in Milan, Italy.
The water-cooled 75-degree V3 engine is being newly developed for larger displacement motorcycles, and has been designed to be extremely slim and compact. It features the world’s first electrical compressor for motorcycles, which is able to control compression of the intake air irrespective of engine rpm, meaning that high-response torque can be delivered even from lower rpm. In addition, the electrical compressor allows a high degree of freedom of layout of all components in the limited space available on a motorcycle and efficient centralization of mass. It also does not require any form of intercooler.
Honda’s motorcycle business aims to provide products that meet the needs of various customers by offering a wide range of products from commuters to FUN models. In addition, Honda is taking on the challenge of developing advanced technologies by adding electric motorcycles and other products to its product lineup to meet the diversifying needs of today’s customers.
Honda sees the development of this V3 engine with an electrical compressor as a new challenge in the area of internal combustion engines, and its goal is to enable customers to further experience the joy of riding and owning a motorcycle. Honda plans to apply the new V3 engine to larger displacement models in the future, and will continue its development toward mass production.
Since its foundation, Honda has been committed to “creating a society that is useful to people” by utilizing its technologies and ideas. We also focus on environmental responsiveness and traffic safety, and continue to take on the challenge of realizing a sustainable future. For more information, visit https://global.honda/en/.

On Tuesday, May 24, Tokyo hosted the summit of the leaders of QUAD, an informal alliance of the United States, India, Japan and Australia aimed at containing the People’s Republic of China in the Indo-Pacific region. The summit mainly focused on discussing various anti-Chinese initiatives and the Ukrainian crisis.
The summit, in addition to the first persons of the QUAD states, was attended by many other statesmen. Among them was former Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, who left his post due to health reasons in September 2020. This February, amid the Ukrainian crisis and growing tensions between Taiwan and mainland China, Abe suggested that Tokyo consider the idea of hosting on the Japanese territory nuclear weapons.
Since the second half of the 1960s, Japan has adhered to the “Three non-nuclear principles” in its foreign policy, which are to promote the peaceful use of atomic energy, to work toward global nuclear disarmament, to rely on the extended U.S. nuclear deterrent.
However, in a conversation with a representative of the Indian TV channel WION, the former Japanese prime minister actually reiterated his call, noting that Japan should abandon the taboos associated with the possession of nuclear weapons. According to him, Tokyo needs “to understand how security is maintained around the world and not consider it taboo to have an open discussion.”
Abe also added that the U.S.-Japan alliance system needs to be updated and improved over time, but that nuclear deterrence would also help ensure Japan’s own security. However, Abe’s words were immediately denied by the current Prime Minister of Japan, Fumio Kishida. He stated that, in accordance with the three non-nuclear principles, the idea was unacceptable.
PIR Center will soon publish its new report New Nuclear Nine? Assessing Nuclear Proliferation Threats, which examines the risks of the new nuclear-weapon states emerging on the world map, including Japan. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Haiti’s children call for the attention of the world
6 March 2024Dr. Unni Krishnan, Plan International's Global Humanitarian Director, visited Haiti last week. Gang violence has displaced families, shut down schools and hindered food production, leaving children and girls highly vulnerable. He shares this message – Haiti urgently needs international support.
The UN’s Humanitarian Response Plan needs increased funding to deliver life-saving aid in Haiti. But there’s more to be done. Prioritising girls’ safety and education is critical. Programmes that provide safe spaces for learning and reduce violence against girls are essential for their future and Haiti’s.
“I want to become a doctor.” In the relative comfort of a child-friendly space in this conflict zone in Haiti, Sylvie*,13, shared her dream.
The impacts of armed gangs
The children told us that armed gangs have shut down their schools. None are allowed to go to school. These young tender minds can take only so much. Missing education limits future prospects.
Gonaïves is one of the flashpoints of the escalating gang violence that has engulfed this Caribbean Island nation. It is a tough terrain. A group of Plan International colleagues and I visited Gonaives last week, thanks to a biweekly UN helicopter service, the only safe transportation.
The escalating violence in the capital Port Au Prince in the past few days forced people to shut down shops, markets, and schools. Gangs burned down police stations and fired at aircraft. International flights were cancelled. We could not return as planned.
“Stepping outside one’s home means risking death from bullets, being kidnapped by armed gangs, or suffering unimaginable violence,” said Ulrika Richardson, UN Humanitarian Coordinator in a statement last week. The UN estimates that there are about 300 gangs active across Haiti.
Children are the worst affected
A Plan International Haiti study released ahead of International Women’s Day gives a narrative about the impact of gang violence. Separation of children from their families and poverty makes them vulnerable to sexual and gender-based violence.
Sylvie and her friends remind humanitarian agencies about their first task – to stand in solidarity and call the attention of the world.
Sylvie gave us a message to relay to the world, “Get schools to function and stop the violence”. This resonates with Haiti’s Humanitarian Response Plan for 2024, launched by the UN and the nation’s government in February in Port Au Prince. The plan calls for protection, particularly for women and girls who have suffered or are at risk of gender-based violence. An ambitious, yet under-funded UN plan aims to assist 3.6 million people who need urgent and life-saving humanitarian assistance.
Children make up almost 55% of the people displaced. Children should be school bound, carrying a backpack or playing football. Children told us armed gangs have recruited some of their friends. Some carry guns and are made to commit someone’s else crimes. Imagine children in New York, London, or Sydney in such a context.
Visits to Haiti leave you with mixed feelings. Amidst storms, earthquakes, and violence, you meet some of the most resilient children here.
I have always admired the local volunteers. With bare hands and unflinching grit, they pull out fellow Haitians from rubble and mudslides much before international aid arrives to the scene.
Most of my earlier visits here have been to support Haitian humanitarian workers, timed either after catastrophic storms or while Haitians are getting ready to embrace the next big one.
At the child-friendly spaces, children play, sing, and engage in theatre, art, recreational, and educational activities. Plan International Haiti staff and volunteers are working together tirelessly to support children, particularly girls, during this crisis.
Our child-friendly spaces offer a haven for them to play, learn, and receive psychosocial support. Trained staff can identify children needing support, referring them to specialised services, ensuring an opportunity for healing, play, and learning – the building blocks of a brighter future.
Haiti calls for international support
With dreams like Sylvie’s hanging in the balance, Haiti urgently needs international support. Increased funding for the UN plan will deliver life-saving aid. But for a lasting impact, empower girls. Invest in safe spaces and programmes that prioritise their education and safety. This may help to write a different future for Haiti, one where every child, not just Sylvie, can reach for their dreams. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
Turning the World Around
Girl and young women activists leading the fight for equality!
We spoke to over 1000 participants to find out what it’s like to be an adolescent girl or young woman activist leading the fight for equality today.
How are they treated? Do they feel safe? What keeps them going?
Girls’ right to speak out must be protected!
Activism comes in many forms and is a vital part of the democratic process.
At a time when civic space is both shrinking and shifting, progress on gender equality is stalling, and, in several of the countries where this research was conducted, the right to protest is severely restricted, girls’ and young women’s right to make their voices heard must be protected.
This study seeks to understand both the barriers that girl and young women activists face and the motivation and inspiration that drives them forward, in order to strengthen and support girl-led activism.
What we found out
- Gender equality is the single most important issue for girl activists. 60% of the girls we spoke to said gender equality or gender-based violence was a priority issue for them.
- One in five girl and young women activists have feared for their safety while carrying out their work.
- The single biggest barrier to girls’ activism is a shortage of funding. More than half of girls we surveyed named a lack of finances as the main factor holding their campaigning back.
- One in four girls cited negative views from members of their family or community as another frequent barrier.
- Activism takes a huge toll on girls’ mental health, and can come at huge personal cost. Many of the girls we spoke to have experienced anxiety, depression, burnout and emotional exhaustion. One in four say they’ve felt emotionally unwell or anxious while engaging in activism work, for LGBTIQ+ activists, this figure rises to one in three.
- Despite this, nearly all girl and young women activists (95%) say campaigning has had a positive impact on their lives, making them feel proud, empowered and capable.
- Girls are creating change. More than half of girls and young women we surveyed say the impact of their activism has met or exceeded their expectations.
What girls want to see
From tackling taboos around periods to stopping child marriage, girl activists are changing their communities for the better. But it’s not easy. Being a girl activist can be tough and unrelenting. Girls want to see power holders play their part. Here are some of their recommendations.

Psychology in poker
Most poker players think that in poker is all about the right strategy and luck. This is not entirely true. To be a successful real money poker player you need besides a strategic thinking and luck the right mental skills. Whether you play online or offline, if you pay attention you will notice that poker is also a mental confrontation.
In face to face poker games is obvious that the best players are always difficult to read because of that perfect “poker face” that hides all their feelings. They never go on tilt and you won’t see them over excited after winning a large pot.
On the other hand the fishes get excited if they are dealt strong cards and they usually get mad after a bad beat. Analyzing these situations is easy to conclude that the psychological factor plays an important role in the game of poker in addition to strategy and of course, luck.
Some players are born with these psychological skills, while others gain them on the way by cumulating a lot of game experience. By playing a lot of poker, your game can improve considerably, but besides practice you also need to read a lot. There are a lot of good reading materials on this particular subject so try to read as much as possible to fully understand poker psychology. After that will be easier to use it and with some practice will become something that comes naturally.
In real money online poker you might be tempted to think that psychology is not so important. Well, it is. Knowing poker psychology you can read other players just by the way they act at the table and you can beat them easier.
If you want to become a professional poker player or just to be a really good poker player learn as much as you can about poker psychology and you will get there faster. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
Victoria Launches Air Conditioning Discount Program
The Victorian government has introduced a significant initiative that promotes energy efficiency and sustainability.
The 2024 Air Conditioning Discount program encourages residents and businesses to replace old, inefficient air conditioning systems with modern, energy-efficient models. The discount program is part of the broader Victorian Energy Upgrades program.
The scheme helps households and commercial entities purchase split system air conditioners and other energy-efficient heating and cooling technologies.
The initiative’s primary objective is a reduction in energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions, thereby helping Victoria move toward a more sustainable future.
Victorian homeowners, tenants, and business operators are eligible for the discount if they replace their old air conditioning systems with newer, more efficient models.
Key requirements to participate in the Air Conditioning Discount program include:
- The air conditioning product must be listed on the VEU program registry.
- The property must be at least 2 years old.
- The home or business must be located in Victoria.
- Applicants must not have claimed a VEU air conditioning upgrade in the last two years.
- Applicants must be replacing an existing inefficient system.
The Victorian government offers a range of discounts on energy-efficient air conditioning systems. While the discounts are not full subsidies, they significantly reduce the cost of purchasing and installing eligible units.
The exact discount amount depends on the type, model, and size of the air conditioning system installed. But – on average – households that upgrade to energy-efficient air conditioners save between $120 and $1,100 on annual energy costs. These savings offset the initial investment over time, making the upgrade economically viable for practically anyone.
Applying for the Victoria Air Conditioning Rebate is a straightforward process. Applicants must verify their intended purchase is eligible under the VEU program. Then they need to contact an accredited provider authorised to perform installations under the VEU.
The provider will assess the applicant’s needs, recommend eligible products, and handle the administrative aspects of the application – including filing necessary documents. The seamless process makes sure participants easily can take advantage of the discount.
The AirCon discount program includes a variety of reputable brands and manufacturers, so participants can access high-quality and energy-efficient options suited to their unique situations. Brands like Daikin, Mitsubishi Electric, and Fujitsu are known for their high-quality models that qualify for discounts and rebates.
The Victorian Air Conditioning Discount offers a variety of advantages beyond upfront cost savings. Participants enjoy lower energy bills, increased property values, reduced carbon footprints, improved indoor air quality, and more comfortable living and working environments.
In addition to its primary benefits, the discount program covers a variety of additional services and offers, including:
- Comprehensive energy assessments identify the most beneficial upgrades. These assessments help pinpoint the best improvements for maximising energy efficiency and savings.
- Professional installation services are provided by accredited providers. Accredited professionals ensure that installations are done correctly and meet all regulatory standards.
- Ongoing maintenance and support keeps systems running efficiently. Regular maintenance services are provided to extend the life of your system and maintain optimal performance.
- Special offers are available for related energy-efficient solutions. Participants can take advantage of discounts on other energy-saving products like hot water systems and insulation.
- Flexible financing options make upgrades more accessible. Various financing plans are available to help spread the cost of upgrades over time, making them more affordable.
Simply installing an efficient air conditioner will save money and reduce emissions, but steps can be taken to maximise the benefits. To get the most out of energy-efficient air conditioning systems, participants should:
- Schedule regular maintenance checks. Routine maintenance helps keep your system running efficiently and can prevent costly repairs.
- Ensure proper installation by certified professionals. Proper installation is crucial for the system’s performance and longevity.
- Invest in smart thermostats for better control. Smart thermostats allow for more precise temperature control, improving comfort and energy savings.
- Improve insulation and seal leaks in their homes. Enhancing insulation and sealing leaks prevents cool air from escaping, boosting your system’s efficiency.
- Set optimal temperature settings for comfort and efficiency. Keeping your thermostat at an energy-efficient temperature can reduce energy consumption and costs.
Victorians are encouraged to schedule a free consultation with an approved provider like Efficient Energy Group. Then they can learn more about how they can benefit from the Air Conditioning Discount and other energy-efficient solutions. The consultation also can help identify the best products and services to maximise energy savings.
Take the first step toward a more sustainable and cost-effective future by booking an appointment online today. Learn how you can reduce your energy bills, increase your property’s value, and contribute to a greener environment.
Don’t miss out on this opportunity to upgrade your air conditioning system with significant savings. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Polish striker Robert Lewandowski has been recognised as 2020’s top player at the FIFA Football Best Awards. He won more votes than fellow nominees and football legends Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo.
2020 was undoubtedly the best year of Robert Lewandowski’s career. The Polish athlete managed to win the European treble, the Champions League, Bundesliga, and DFL Pokal with Bayern Munich, topping the scorer’s charts in every one of those competitions. Lewandowski has been awarded the title for best striker and footballer of the year for UEFA. In the passing year Lewandowski was successful both individually and alongside his team. In the last season of the German Bundesliga, the Polish striker managed a career best 34 goals. The gala itself was just a formality. Lewandowski outclassed such soccer stars as Cristiano Ronaldo and Leo Messi. Congratulations to the Pole came from all over the world, as well as from Polish President Andrzej Duda and Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki.
“Huge congratulations to the FIFA Footballer of the Year. Bravo, Mr. Robert. For me as well as for many fans, you have been the best footballer for a long time, and now you have received this grand title confirming this. You are going down in history once again – the first Pole to be the best footballer in the world.” tweeted PM Morawiecki.
Although this year is dictated by a pandemic, perhaps the historical success of the Pole will allow us to take a small breather. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
Flutterwave has officially received a Payment Systems Operator (PSO) license from the Bank of Uganda, marking a significant milestone in its expansion across Africa.
This development adds Uganda to Flutterwave’s growing list of countries where it operates, further solidifying its position in the continent’s digital payment landscape.
The announcement comes at a time when Uganda’s digital payment ecosystem is undergoing a transformation, driven by a youthful population—over 78% of Ugandans are under the age of 35. This demographic shift presents a unique opportunity for economic growth through enhanced financial inclusion and digital innovation.
Founded in 2016, Flutterwave has quickly become a cornerstone of Africa’s digital economy. The company aims to simplify payments and create endless possibilities for businesses and individuals alike.
With its advanced technology and deep understanding of African markets, Flutterwave offers a comprehensive suite of payment solutions tailored to meet the unique needs of Uganda.
The newly acquired PSO license will enable Flutterwave to provide a range of services, including payout solutions for disbursing salaries and commissions, invoicing tools for easy payment tracking, and mobile money integration—essential for Uganda’s predominantly mobile-first population.
This will streamline fund transfers and payment collections across various customer segments, allowing businesses to benefit from efficient and reliable payment solutions through Flutterwave for Business or SendApp.
Olugbenga ‘GB’ Agboola, Founder and CEO of Flutterwave, expressed his enthusiasm about the license, stating, “Securing this license in Uganda is a significant step towards realizing our vision of a financially connected Africa. At Flutterwave, we believe that the future of Africa lies in its ability to seamlessly connect its people, businesses, and economies through technology. We are excited to contribute to this journey, empowering Ugandan businesses and individuals to harness the full potential of digital payments and drive inclusive growth.”
Oluwabankole Falade, Chief Regulatory Officer at Flutterwave, added, “The acquisition of this license further solidifies our standing as a leading payment technology service provider in Africa. We are deeply committed to adhering to all regulatory requirements and maintaining a strong relationship with the Bank of Uganda to ensure our services remain safe, secure, and beneficial to the Ugandan people.”
Flutterwave’s entry into Uganda follows its recent acquisitions of payment licenses in Ghana and Mozambique, further expanding its footprint across the continent. As the company continues to grow, it remains focused on providing seamless and secure payment solutions that empower local businesses and foster economic development.
With the PSO license in hand, Flutterwave is poised to play a crucial role in shaping Uganda’s digital payment landscape, driving financial inclusion, and supporting the country’s economic aspirations. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

then with the temping- i am confused- the last 3 days its been 36.3 altho only the last 2 days have done it before i got up and started doing things- the day before that it was 35.3 even AFTER i'd got up and done stuff.
reading up on it 36.3 is low so does that mean i have not ovulated? if so what was with the 35.3 reading was that incorrect do u think? yes i had got up and had a cu of tea etc but wouldnt that make it higher not lower? can some women just have low body temps is it possible to be 36.3 after ovulation? i am so confuuuuuuuuuuuused | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
Yesterday, as I set the stopwatch on my iPhone to time how long it took me to get ready (20 minutes for showering/teeth brushing, etc; 40 minutes to get dressed, do my hair and put on makeup), I realized how much numbers have snuck into my life in the past few years. And despite being a journalism major–which means as few math classes as possible!–I’ve become addicted to them.
How fast can I get ready in the morning?
How fast can I walk to work? 18 minutes yesterday, 16 today–I totally PRed.
How fast can I run a mile? <— I actually have no idea because I usually run at least 3
How fast can I run 26.2?
How much can I grow my blog?
How much am I spending?
When I was losing weight–how much was I losing?
I’m not sure if the decision to lose weight influenced getting my life together in other ways (or this random love for numbers), or if I’m just a foot soldier in the whole quantified self movement, but it’s interesting to think about.

2. We found an issue where Envoy occasionally doesn't reconnect and prohibits user to sign post transaction (implemented logging to better troubleshoot)
4. We've made some improvements to some call logging flow to resolve delays or errors. 5. We have also made connection resiliency improvements for longer periods of time using or idling Elemental Chat.

This is a fantastic book and it kept my two sons occupied on a long car journey recently. Dinosaurs are always a favourite subject and this book did not disappoint. William who is 9 liked reading about the different types of dinosaurs and kept Luke, who is 5, entertained with his amusing dinosaur voices!
There is a good mix of activities in this large paperback book, stickers are always a favourite activity and this book has 200 of them so there was plenty to keep my two boys occupied. A wide range of puzzles, colouring pages and writing activities add to the enjoyment of this book. Luke is in Reception and especially enjoyed tracing over the outlines of the letters and numbers. It is a great way for children to learn without them actually realising it!
The illustrations are superb, they are colourful and detailed and William, who is a bit of a dinosaur expert, really enjoyed looking at the dinosaurs and reading the quirky rhymes about them.
This would be a great book to take on holiday as it would be good for entertaining children at the airport, on a plane or in a caravan as there are so many activities that appeal to children.

In today's digital age, creating a seamless home office environment is essential for productivity and comfort. Smart lighting and temperature control can play a key role in achieving this. By incorporating these technologies into your workspace, you can enhance focus, mood, and energy levels throughout the day. In this article, we will explore how to optimize your home office setup with smart lighting and temperature control solutions.
Lighting is a crucial aspect of any workspace, as it can greatly impact productivity and overall well-being. With smart lighting systems, you can easily adjust the brightness and color temperature of your lights to suit your needs. This can help reduce eye strain, improve concentration, and create a more pleasant work environment. Additionally, smart lighting can be programmed to mimic natural light patterns, which can help regulate your circadian rhythm and improve sleep quality.
Temperature control is another important factor to consider when designing your home office. Maintaining a comfortable temperature can prevent distractions and ensure focus throughout the workday. Smart thermostats allow you to remotely monitor and adjust the temperature of your workspace, ensuring optimal comfort at all times. Some systems even have features that learn your preferences and adjust settings automatically, saving you time and energy.
To create a seamless home office with smart lighting and temperature control, start by assessing your needs and preferences. Consider the layout of your workspace, the natural light sources available, and any temperature fluctuations throughout the day. Choose lighting fixtures that provide adequate illumination without causing glare or harsh shadows. Select a smart thermostat that is compatible with your HVAC system and offers the features you desire.
Once you have installed your smart lighting and temperature control systems, take the time to customize them to your liking. Create schedules for lighting and temperature adjustments based on your work routine. Experiment with different settings to find what works best for you. By fine-tuning these systems, you can create a personalized and efficient home office environment that promotes productivity and well-being. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
Become a Carer
In the realm of elderly and disabled care, private care services offer a more personalised and affordable option for those in North Lincolnshire, surpassing the capabilities of most agency care services in multiple significant ways.
The comforts of home can never be underestimated, particularly when we consider care for our aged or disabled loved ones. Being in a familiar environment undoubtedly helps maintain a sense of comfort, independence and normality, vital factors in enhancing their quality of life.
Unlike agency care services where frequent shifts and high staff turnover can mean a constant cycle of unfamiliar faces, private care through PrimeCarers ensures a steady, consistent carer. This continuity not only enhances the relationship built between the carer and the care receiver but also ensures a truly personalised service that accounts for all unique preferences and needs. PrimeCarers lets you have the final say in who comes into your home, allowing you to vet and choose the most suitable carer to ensure a comfortable and safe environment.
Private care services provided by PrimeCarers are also incredibly affordable. With a mere 12.5% fee for live-in care and 15-20% fee for hourly care, it offers a significant reduction of costs compared to many agency care services that often take a 30-50% cut of the fee. Budgeting becomes more manageable with transparent fees that ensure you fully understand what you're paying for and how much. PrimeCarers is committed to providing a valuable service rather than profit margins, ensuring your loved ones are well looked after at a reasonable price. More about the cost of home care in North Lincolnshire can be found here.
One of the major advantages of private care lies in the opportunity for clients to be cared for in their own home. Familiar surroundings can greatly reduce feelings of disorientation and anxiety that may arise from being in a foreign place.
Unlike agency carers who are usually designated based on availability rather than fit, PrimeCarers match each client with a carer based on over 80 different factors. This ensures that the unique needs, preferences and personality of the client are taken into account when matching with a carer, creating a more fulfilling care relationship. The complete guide to private carers can be further explored here.
Private care is also perfect for couples. Supporting both your parents at home doesn't need to be cost-prohibitive, with an average cost of £1,218 per week couples can receive the support and care they need without being separated. PrimeCarers offer detailed information on the consideration of carers for couples here.
Lastly, the beauty of having a personal carer is their ability to accompany and assist clients on outings. Carers from PrimeCarers are more than willing to accompany clients to local attractions, enabling them to maintain hobbies and interests and remain integrated within their community.
North Lincolnshire boasts a plethora of attractions perfectly suited to the elderly and disabled. These may include scenic spots like the picturesque Central Park in Scunthorpe, offering a calming environment perfect for light walks, and Normanby Hall Country Park, a beautiful 300-acre estate featuring gardens, woodland, and a Victorian country house.
For those with a penchant for history, North Lincolnshire Museum provides wheelchair access and a wealth of local history and exhibitions which can be explored at a leisurely pace. Additionally, Waters' Edge Visitor Centre in Barton-upon-Humber is also a fantastic destination for birdwatchers and offers numerous walking trails for all abilities.
In conclusion, when considering care for a loved one, private care must be at the forefront of your considerations. Offering personalised care in a familiar environment, with the consistency of a carer of your choosing, and a more affordable and transparent pricing model, all contribute to the appeal of private care. In North Lincolnshire, PrimeCarers stands out as the preeminent provider of such services, offering quality care tailored to individual needs and circumstances with an unrivalled commitment to comfort, continuity and comprehensive support.

You love the outdoors and would rather be out in the wide open spaces getting some exercise than sitting at a desk in an office. Whether you’ve always been active in sports or you’ve discovered a sport you love at an older age, an active lifestyle is good for your body’s health and for relaxing the mind. Exercise helps one sleep, improves one’s appearance and reduces the risk of risk health issues in the future. By participating in a sport, however, one does increase one’s chances of getting injured.
Sprained ankles, broken and fractured bones, knocked-out teeth, concussions, and pain old bruises and scrapes are injuries you’ve most likely heard of before and have come to accept. There is another common and painful injury that is common among athletes who participate in sports that involve much jumping and running. It is called plantar fasciitis.
What is Plantar Fasciitis
In short plantar fasciitis is the straining overuse of the plantar fascia tendon. This tendon is located on the bottom of the foot and connects the heel bone to the front part of the foot. When this thick band of connective tissue gets irritated, extreme pain, similar to that of heel spurs can occur. Common symptoms include severe heel pain first thing in the morning, heel pain when getting up from sitting, standing for a long time, after exercising or stretching the foot and pain when the sides of the heel or arch of the foot are pressed.
Sports That Can Cause Plantar Fasciitis
Plantar fasciitis can occur after participating in a variety of sports. Activities that involve continuous running, sudden movements and jumping can cause the plantar fascia tendon to get overused. Common sports that increase one’s risk of injury include:
- Track and field
Plantar fasciitis can also occur in winter sports like skiing and snowboarding as well as be the result of everyday habits and activities like standing or being on one’s feet all day at work.
This foot condition affects both male and female athletes as well as teen athletes and older, seasoned athletes.
Preventing Plantar Fasciitis
Wearing properly fitting footwear and running on flat, level surfaces are the best ways to prevent the occurrence of this foot injury. Additionally, foot insoles that provide arch support are a good option for those who are on their feet a lot for work. If you’re an athlete, proper, adequate warming up and stretching before one’s activity will also help minimize one’s risk of injury.
Plantar fasciitis is caused by overuse and this can occur when an athlete, particularly long distance runners, try to run too much, too far or too fast without proper, gradual warmup or preparation. If you’re new to a sport like running, it is best to start off slow and gradually build up distance.
Strong calf muscles and the strengthening of other muscles in the foot and ankle can also lower one’s risk of injury.
Plantar fasciitis is a common foot issue that affects athletes participating in a variety of sports. Those who aren’t athletes can also get this painful foot condition by being on their feet all day and doing much standing. Long distance running, soccer and football have been sports notorious for causing plantar fasciitis among athletes. Many other sports can increase one’s risk of as a result of excessive running and jumping. Running on flat, even surfaces, wearing properly fitting shoes, wearing arch supporting insoles, stretching and starting off slowly and gradually building up speed and distance can help prevent plantar fasciitis from occurring.
If you have severe heel pain that impacts your daily routine and life, schedule an appointment with your podiatrist today and get relieve. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

For many years you have dreamed of buying your very own dream home and finally after a lot of hard work and extensive house hunting you have found the house. It felt like you as soon as you walked through its front doors and moving into it feels like the completion of a very long project. However, the process is not over. A dream home needs to be decorated and designed so it looks exactly how you envisioned the house to be. You want to put your personal stamp on it.
Designing and decorating an entire home is a large undertaking and for some, it can feel quite overwhelming however, with the right approach, it is an exciting and fulfilling endeavour. If you are looking for a dream home to decorate, Niagara-on-the-Lake has many beautiful homes situated in a quaint and trendy community to choose from. By being organized and following a few simple steps you will learn to tap into your creative side, creating a home you love living in.
- Figure Out What You Like
We all have different tastes and aesthetic styles so it is important to really get to know yours before you set out to decorate the new home. If you already have a defined sense of style then you are a step ahead. If not, spend time leafing through home decorating magazines and searching the internet for ideas. You will see what calls to you and what does not. Go with your gut and remember it is your home so decorate it how you see fit.
- Find Your Inner Interior Designer
Even interior designers have to look outside of themselves for inspiration so do not expect it to be any different for you. If you have a colour printer print pictures and mix and match various genres. Pull pages from magazines and place them in complementary categories. This helps to start channelling your artistic side, as well as giving you the confidence needed to pull it all together. Blending genres is a fun way to create a dynamic and beautifully decorated home.
- Break the Home into Projects
The project is too big to do the whole house at once. Break it down into smaller parts and begin the design room by room. Keep the idea of flow in mind as the home should not appear disjointed. If you begin with the room you spend most of your time in and go from there it should come together nicely in the end. The living room or the kitchen are always good places to start as we often entertain guests in these spaces.
- Create a Contrasting and Complementary Colour Scheme
Paint is a key element to any design project so consider this when envisioning what the end product will look like. Decide whether you want walls that pop or if you prefer to keep it more neutral and use artwork, furniture and decor to be the central pieces adding colour and depth to the home. Using colour swatches and paint samples can aid you in deciding what colours work well together. The colours should be one of the first decisions you make.
- Choose Furniture Wisely
Furniture makes a room feel larger or smaller so be careful when picking pieces. Do not go too large as it can create a cramped looking area, but also do not go too small as the spaces will feel too empty and be less welcoming. Again there is a decision to make in regards to the colours you go with. Some people prefer more neutral tones like greys or browns, while others like to add a splash of red or blue. Looking through magazines can help with these choices.
- Do Not Stick to Only One Style Genre
It can be a mistake to opt for one design style and go with it throughout the whole house. Instead think about mixing and matching different ones for a more dynamic and modern look. Find the common themes in your favourite genres and pull elements from each. Being too literal with a style can create a home that looks like a showroom and this is not what you want. It is on trend to pull different themes together so have some fun with this.
- Personalize the Artwork
Spend some time in local galleries or on your vacations looking for original art and decor. Many artists and galleries offer pieces in print form instead of original so consider this for the walls instead of generic art from home decorating stores. Buy some framed prints for inexpensive personalized artwork. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
Study Abroad for Multilingualism (SAM). A longitudinal, mixed-method study of international students’ language attitudes, practices and competences (Forschungsdaten)
2024, Heinzmann, Sybille, Hilbe, Robert, Bleichenbacher, Lukas, Ehrsam, Kristina, Institut Sprachliche und Literarische Bildung, Ehrsam, Kristina, Robert Hilbe
The research project SAM investigates student mobility, which is still usually thought of and investigated in terms of a primarily monolingual focus on the TL as spoken natively, from a multilingual perspective. For decades, student mobility is enjoying increasing demand due to growing international connectedness. More recent research suggests that these programs cannot always live up to the high expectations regarding immersion into the target language. In many cases social contact with speakers of the target language are fewer than hoped for and language use more multilingual than anticipated, which can lead to disappointments among the study abroad students. This perspective largely ignores the learning affordances of multilingual language practices or of using the TL as a lingua franca. Through a mixed methodology of quantitative as well as qualitative approaches we will explore the relationship between students’ language attitudes, their social relations and their linguistic practices abroad with the aim of finding out (a) how effective different patterns of social relations and language use are for linguistic development and (b) what role students’ language attitudes play for the development of their social relations and linguistic skills. The insights from the study will benefit the (further) education of teachers, in particular when it comes to the expectations and assessment of student mobility. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
Two weeks removed from his first major victory at the US Open, Dustin Johnson once again crushed the field with his driver to win his 3rd WGC title. Johnson joined Tiger Woods as the only players to capture three of the four World Golf Championships.
Johnson always seems to project a certain calmness about him. Whether he’s driving it 350, or celebrating after holing a 10-footer, the 32-year old is always in a world of his own. It seems as if he’s simply playing a round with his friends. We’re probably a million times more nervous over 3-footers than he ever is, on or off the course.
At one point yesterday, Johnson was five shots behind leader Jason Day, yet he pounded his driver one after another, oblivious to the fact that he’s chasing the World’s No. 1 player.
Firestone was playing as tough as it ever has and DJ made it look way too easy.
If you’ve watched Johnson closely over last couple of weeks, you would’ve noticed that he’s hitting a lot of fades. That’s a switch the new World’s No. 2 player made last year.
Johnson said, “I’ve been drawing it pretty much my whole career on Tour, but… I’ve been fading it all year, this year. I feel like I hit a lot more fairways. Maybe the stats don’t say it, but I feel like I do, so I think that’s the most important thing. I just don’t feel like my misses are as bad.”
The change in his ball flight seems to be working wonders for him. He was second in driving distance and fourth in driving accuracy this week. The combination is lethal.
Notable drives for Dustin Johnson during Round 1:
342 yardsRound average: 347 yards pic.twitter.com/vULhPOkkMz
— PGA TOUR (@PGATOUR) July 1, 2016
Add to that, that he ranked 8th in Strokes Gained: Putting, and you pretty much have the perfect golfer.
Johnson uses a TaylorMade M1 10.5 degrees Driver, with a 45.75-inch Fujikura Speeder Evolution 2.0 Tour Spec 661X shaft and the two adjustable sole weights set in the neutral position. He was among the first players to switch to the M1 Driver when it was made available to Tour Players at the 2015 BMW Championship.
Coincidentally, Jason Day won the BMW, that week, using the M1. In fact Day used the M1 for about five months before switching to the M2 Driver at Pebble Beach. He switched back to the M1 at the WGC-Dell Match Play Championship and has used it since then.
The M1 and the M1 430 drivers both retail at $499.99.
Dustin Johnson is entering the British Open as the clear favorite. Don’t be surprised if you seem him wearing the same outfit, holding another trophy two Sundays from now.

We welcome you to learn a little about our history, who we are and why we’re different from the others. We’re more than just another carpet cleaning company.
Pro-Line began as a small, one man show. In 1987 Paul Funk (who still to this day maintains Pro-Line’s course) launched Pro-Line Cleaning Services. Carpet cleaning was the primary service, but soon after he added janitorial services. Paul was outfitted with a little equipment and a good set of quality standards; He took Pro-Line from being a single employee business with a few janitorial and carpet cleaning customers to a modern day local business. A local business that provides services across multiple counties and employs dozens of local residents.
Innovation is part of the foundation of Pro-Line and will always be part of who we are. We constantly are in search of the latest equipment, the newest methods, and what’s ahead.

The federal government is planning to give tax exemptions to local startups next fiscal year.
If approved, the exemptions would cover health technology, artificial intelligence, financial technology, and agriculture technology sectors, reported Dawn on Wednesday.
This initiative was discussed during a meeting chaired by Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif on Tuesday.
IT Minister Shaza Fatima Khawaja highlighted tax exemptions as a means to address the disparity between private individuals and startups. Currently, private individuals enjoy zero tax, while those associated with organizations face a 35 percent tax rate.
PM Shehbaz instructed the central bank governor to ensure that banks do not create obstacles for software exporters regarding debit cards and foreign currency issues. He also emphasized the need for private-sector consultations to support startups.
A target of $25 billion in IT exports was also set till 2029, with plans to expand tech services and captive IT businesses.
The premier was briefed that the Pakistan Digital Nation project aims to digitize state affairs and the economy. Additionally, a target has been set to train approximately 1.5 million individuals in the IT sector over the next five years.
The meeting was informed of plans for ensuring international certifications for IT professionals through public-private partnerships, establishing three IT parks, and setting up 250 e-Rozgar centers. The meeting also discussed enhancing mobile broadband coverage to 100MBPS and increasing fiber penetration to 12 percent.
Shehbaz underscored the potential of the IT sector in Pakistan and the critical role of entrepreneurs in its development.

Buying a home means scanning everything there is, inside and out. Apparently, paint is one of the least checked out part of any property. Perhaps, one can say something about how outdated the color theme is or why the previous homeowner chose such a color. Unfortunately, if you are looking at older homes, you might need to stop thinking about the color but what is contained in the paint. The existence of lead paint can make that dream house of yours go from hero to zero real quick. That is why a home inspection is both crucial and essential in a real estate transaction.
Before scientists discovered how dangerous lead can be, lead was a popular ingredient in house paint. If eaten or inhaled as dust particles in the air, this element can cause a wide range of health problems. Anemia, seizures, and worse, death, especially to children and highly sensitive individuals. Last thing you would want inside your home is this sneaky health perpetrator.
Let’s identify which homes have lead paint
In 1978, the federal government banned the sale of lead-based paint. Many people thought that houses built after the ban. However, many painters loved lead-based paint. This type of paint produces a glossier, more lustrous glow, and holds color better which appealed to both painters and homeowners. As soon as they learned about the banning, many of these painters stocked up on the harmful lead-based paint. This answers why home inspectors found the presence of lead-based paint in homes built in the 90s.
How to check out for signs of lead paint
You can’t really detect the presence of lead paint just by looking at it. Fortunately, a telltale sign will help you do so. Ever notice a scaly and cracked paint that looks like alligator skin? That’s one sign. It’s called alligatoring wherein the paint deteriorates, creating a scaly pattern. Finding these cracks is a good indication of lead. However, homeowners don’t leave these patterns on walls. Try to check out baseboards, window sashes, and basically anywhere a painter might have overlooked.
Lead paint testing
You can use a paint testing kit available at any local hardware store. Test your walls for surface lead by rubbing a solution on the wall. If the solution turns pink, that’s lead. However, the color pink will also stain the wall so it might not be a really good idea if you are just looking around.
The test has limits as well. It only finds lead on the surface, not when the lead-based paint has been covered up with new paint. Unfortunately, windows can still have exposed lead and lead dust disperses throughout the house when you touch the area.
Hire a home inspector to test for lead instead
A serious test is what you need to confirm if a home has lead-based paint. If the existence of lead is suspected, the inspector will use an X-ray to look through the paint layers. Because X-rays can’t pass through lead, it should be pretty easy to detect.
If you are not sure about who to hire, EPA.gov provides a list of certified lead inspectors near you and other relevant information on their lead abatement page. A certified home inspector can also do the job
Walking away from a house with lead might be a good idea. In the end, it will always be your final decision whether to continue with the purchase or not. You just need to do everything it takes to ensure the safety of you and your family’s health. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Fiber optical modules are extremely important in today’s optical fiber communication network. The development of data centers and cloud computing drive a large demand on the various rates of optical transceivers. However, the price of fiber optic transceivers is generally high offered by original equipment manufacturers (OEM) and brands, so many communication service providers favored third-party manufactures. Here comes the possible quality and performance issue when buying transceivers from a third-party supplier, so understanding how to test an optical transceiver is important. This post will introduce a performance testing system as the example of SFP transceivers of QSFPTEK, helping you get a full understanding of the optical transceiver testing procedure.
Working Principle of SFP Transceiver
Before introducing the testing system of the SFP transceiver, it is necessary to figure out its working principle. SFP transceiver is composed of optical components and functional circuits, which are designed for photoelectric conversion in optical fiber communication systems. The optical components include two parts of transmitting and receiving. On the transmitter (TX) side, the electrical signals are converted into optical signals and transmitted via a fiber link. Then on the receiver (RX) side, the received optical signals revert into electrical signals and transmit to switches and terminal routers. The working principle of the SFP transceiver is shown in figure 1.
Figure 1 – SFP Transceiver Working Principle
Key Parameters to be Tested
The main testing parameters of the SFP transceiver can be analyzed from two aspects of transmitter parameters and receive parameters. The major transmitter parameters include transmit (Tx) power and the quality of the eye diagram. The major receive parameter is receiving sensitivity. Measuring the performance, judging if the transceivers are measuring up to the quality standards and working properly are largely based on these parameters. Next, the post will explain these parameters in detail.
SFP Transmit (Tx) Power Test
The Tx power is the signal level leaving from that device, which should be within the transmitter power range. For example, the transmit power range of SFP-10G-SR should be between -7.3dBm to -1dBm. Either the Tx power is higher or lower than the standard, the transceiver can’t work normally. The transmit power is an important parameter of the transmitter, which directly affects the communication quality of the transceiver. The transmit power is measured with the testing device of the optical power meter.
SFP Eye Diagram Test
The eye diagram of the SFP transceiver displays in the form of a waveform diagram to show the transmit performance of the SFP transceiver. The problems of ISI ( intersymbol interference) and noise can be found in the eye diagram, further, the quality of transmitting signals is able to be evaluated. More exactly, in the ideal case without ISI and noise, the waveform is shown as an open and big eye with a thin and clear outline. Moreover, if ISI exists, the eye will partly be closed and the outline of the eye will become blurred under the influence of noise. Figure 2 shows the eye diagram of the SFP transceiver with weak ISI and noise. The eye diagram is measured by the testing device of the Oscilloscope.
Figure 2 – Eye Diagram of SFP Transceiver
SFP Receiver Sensitivity Test
Receiver sensitivity is the other vital parameter for measuring the performance of the transceiver, which is defined as the minimum signal optical power level required at the receiver to achieve a certain BER performance. The noise at the receiving end of the SFP optical module is the main reason affecting the receiver sensitivity. The receiver sensitivity is measured by the testing device of Bit Error Rate Tester.
Automatic Test System of SFP Transceiver
QSFPTEK designed an Automatic Test System to improve the accuracy and efficiency of the testing process. All testing devices including optical power meter, Oscilloscope, and Bit Error Rate Tester are integrated and controlled by a computer. All the testing data will be saved in the database for the convenience of checking by the company engineers and customers. The Automatic Test System includes two platforms, transmit testing platform and receive testing platform, as shown in figure 3 and figure 4.
Figure 3 – SFP Transceiver Transmit Testing Platform
Figure 4 – SFP Transceiver Receiver Testing Platform
The mentioned above has explained the key parameters that need to be tested for transceiver modules and introduced an Automatic Test System of SFP transceivers designed by QSFPTEK. I hope the post is helpful for you when choosing quality assured and high-performance transceivers from third-party suppliers. By the way, with the professional and comprehensive Automatic Test System of QSFPTEK, it is believed that QSFPTEK is a reliable third-party supplier. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
(it was adapted from the Juice Jug Rig wiki page)
We'll be using 1 gallon Tropicana orange juice jugs
These are strong enough to protect the cameras, and long enough so that the lenses won't hit the ground if the whole thing drops.
They're also made of softer plastic which is easy to cut. They look ripe for decoration and it's healthier to guzzle a gallon of orange juice than Coca-Cola.
This uses a T-bracket with 1/4" holes to hold two cameras side by side -- they're attached on using short 1/4" x 20 (thread) bolts, though I used some with knurled caps to make them easy to tighten.
Start by slicing the bottom off of a 1 gallon Tropicana orange juice jug
Holding the rig upside down, lower the cameras into the bottom until they rest against the "shelf" formed by the handle.
Pull the tether string out through the mouth of the jug and, holding it taut, close the jar over the string. Center the string so that the jug hangs without tilting to one side.
The jug should be sturdy, but if you're worried, you can tie a second tether around the handle. Just don't stop the first tether from hanging straight or the whole rig will tilt to one side.
Be sure the camera lenses are recessed enough that if the whole thing hits the ground, they'll be out of danger. Try extending the lenses to check.

Report: Farm Credit System needs an update
Friday, December 1, 2023
A new report calls for greater accountability in the system that provides funding to farmers in underserved communities. The research takes a dive into the Farm Credit System, examining the risks and suggesting improvements to make the system more fair and sustainable.
Report lead author Dr. Joshua Humphreys is a farmer and president of the Croatan Institute. He asserted that, despite the Farm Credit System making around 45% of all agricultural loans, there is no transparency in how much of the funding goes to small, midsized or socially disadvantaged farmers.
"Minority home buyers were deeply underserved," Humphreys pointed out, "yet no data demographically related to race, ethnicity or gender along the lines of other equal lending opportunity sectors are provided."
According to the report, most Farm Credit System loans go to very large operations, and fewer than 20% to small or beginning farmers. Humphreys said the findings can be an opportunity for the system to address the disparities.
The report also examines the system's lack of climate-related reporting, and suggests ways to make sustainability a bigger priority in lending. For the last several decades, farmers have dealt with increased risks -- from rising temperatures and more frequent severe storms to wildfires.
Report contributor David Beck, director of policy at Self-Help Credit Union, said as agriculture's Government-Sponsored Enterprise, more can be done to help farmers to transition to more eco-friendly practices.
"For instance, helping small farmers or even larger farmers switch to more regenerative ag practices that can require a lot of upfront cost," Beck explained. "So, maybe helping subsidize that switch to more sustainable ag systems."
The research touches on governance issues as well, such as board members serving expired terms. Humphreys added these challenges must be addressed, as taxpayers ultimately would bail the system out in the event of a crisis.
"Agriculture is not immune from a wide array of environmental, social and governance risks and opportunities," he insisted. "I think that's the key takeaway, is that we really want to encourage the Farm Credit System to end its laggard position among Government-Sponsored Enterprises."
The report recommends conducting more climate research, implementing Green and Impact Bonds, and establishing a grant set-aside program through a congressional mandate.

The link between the presidential election and future of SCOTUS
Monday, October 7, 2024
With a month to go before the presidential election, voters in swing states such as Pennsylvania are likely to hear more messaging about the outcome shaping the future of the nation's highest court.
In a recent Ipsos poll, four in five Americans said nominations to the U.S. Supreme Court will be an important factor when casting their ballot.
The court and its conservative majority have come under scrutiny over decisions regarding abortion protections and presidential immunity, as well as ethics issues.
Joe Hines - managing director of digital campaigns with the left-leaning advocacy group Stand Up America - said with four of the nine justices soon turning 70, another Trump presidency could push the court even further right.
"We are trying to make it clear to voters that when you're voting this year, you're not just voting for a president, you're not just voting for Congress," said Hines. "You're also voting for generations of decisions that will impact you, your family, your children, your grandchildren's fundamental rights."
As for public polling, a majority of Americans back the idea of Supreme Court term limits, but only a small percentage of Republican voters support expanding the court to 15 justices.
Most Democrats embrace that possible reform. Some GOP lawmakers have argued certain changes would be unconstitutional.
But advocates such as Hines contend there's a huge conflict of interest with the court right now.
"They'll continue to hear a lot of cases around voting rights - including, probably, cases around this very election, cases around the president's power," said Hines. "So, they'll be hearing a lot of cases that concern the people that are appointing them."
He noted that a handful of justices taking up these issues, especially matters directly involving former President Donald Trump, were appointed during Trump's term in office.
In the same Ipsos poll, more Americans said they think the court decides cases on the basis of political views than the law.

NMDA receptors are tetrameric ligand-gated ion channels comprised of GluN1, GluN2, and GluN3 subunits. Two different GluN2 subunits have been identified in most NMDA receptor-expressing cells, and the majority of native receptors are triheteromers containing two GluN1 and two different GluN2. In contrast to diheteromeric NMDA receptors, little is known about the function of triheteromers. We developed a method to provide selective cell-surface expression of recombinant GluN1/GluN2A/GluN2B triheteromers and compared properties of these receptors with those of GluN1/GluN2A and GluN1/GluN2B diheteromers. We show that glutamate deactivation of triheteromers is distinct from those of GluN1/GluN2A and GluN1/GluN2B and reveal modulation of triheteromers by subunit-selective antagonists ifenprodil, CP-101,606, TCN-201, and extracellular Zn(2+). Furthermore, kinetic measurements suggest variation in the ifenprodil binding site of triheteromers compared to GluN1/GluN2B diheteromers. This work provides insight into the distinct properties of GluN1/GluN2A/GluN2B triheteromers, which are presumably the most abundant NMDA receptors in the adult forebrain.

Child maltreatment can adversely affect brain development, leading to vulnerabilities in brain structure and function and various psychiatric disorders. Among the various types of child maltreatment, neglect has the highest incidence rate (76.0%); however, data on its sole adverse influence on the brain remain limited. This case-control brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) study identified the changes in gray matter structure and function that distinguish neglected children with no other type of maltreatment (Neglect group, n = 23) from typically developing children (TD group, n = 140), and investigated the association between these structural and functional differences and specific psychosocial phenotypes observed in neglected children. Our results showed that the Neglect group had a larger right and left anterior cingulate cortex (R/L.ACC) and smaller left angular gyrus (L.AG) gray matter volume. The larger R/L.ACC was associated with hyperactivity and inattention. Resting-state functional analysis showed increased functional connectivity (FC) between the left supramarginal gyrus (L.SMG) in the salience network (SN) and the right middle frontal gyrus (R.MFG) simultaneously with a decrease in FC with the L.ACC for the same seed. The increased FC for the R.MFG was associated with difficulty in peer problems and depressive symptoms; a mediating effect was evident for depressive symptoms. These results suggest that the structural atypicality of the R/L.ACC indirectly contributes to the disturbed FCs within the SN, thereby exacerbating depressive symptoms in neglected children. In conclusion, exposure to neglect in childhood may lead to maladaptive brain development, particularly neural changes associated with depressive symptoms.

Starting medical school involves more than just academic ability; it also calls for a planned and systematic approach to preparation. It’s important to form good habits to manage the demanding curriculum and foster success-oriented resilience and mentality.
This article will teach you five crucial habits that will enable you to successfully overcome the obstacles of preparing for medical school and set yourself up for a successful career as a medical practitioner. Let’s explore the below habits for effective medical school preparation.
Table of Contents
Strategic Time Management: Balancing Study and Self-Care
Med school prep requires extensive study sessions and thoughtful time management; it’s important to get the most out of every minute spent studying. Make a study plan that fits with your schedule by assigning distinct time slots to each topic.
Divide your study sessions into concentrated time slots, making sure to take pauses to keep your mind alert. Additionally, make self-care a priority in your daily routine. Getting enough sleep, exercising, and unwinding are crucial for preserving general well-being.
By using your time wisely, you’re not only preparing for medical school but also developing a long-term schedule that strikes a balance between academic rigor and the necessary aspects of self-care.
Active Learning: Moving Beyond Passive Study
In medical school, knowledge application and in-depth comprehension are valued more highly than memorization. Develop the practice of active learning, which is interacting with the content in an active way as opposed to just taking in knowledge passively.
Engage in active questioning, discussion, and teaching of the ideas to yourself and others, as opposed to only reading textbooks. To strengthen your comprehension, use a variety of educational tools, including practice questions, illustrations, and flashcards. Look for ways to get your hands dirty, whether it’s via volunteer work, clinical rotations, or research.
You’re not simply gathering knowledge when you practice active learning; you’re also building a strong comprehension of the subject matter that extends beyond simple memory.
Continuous Self-Assessment: Monitoring Progress and Adapting
Being ready for medical school is a continuous process, and the only way to keep track of your progress and modify your strategy as needed is to evaluate yourself regularly. Make it a habit to routinely evaluate your comprehension via practice tests, self-tests, and review sessions. Examine your advantages and disadvantages to determine what needs further work and improvement.
Analyze every examination as a chance to learn by exploring the reasoning behind right and wrong responses. Based on your results, modify your study methods, placing more emphasis on reinforcement in your weakest areas. Making it a habit to regularly evaluate yourself not only helps you stay responsible for your accomplishments but also enables you to concentrate your attention in the right places.
Effective Note-Taking: Transforming Information into Understanding
Taking notes is an essential part of getting ready for medical school, but it goes beyond just copying material; it involves turning it into a comprehension aid. Develop the skill of taking excellent notes by emphasizing the recording of important ideas, relationships between subjects, and your judgments.
As you write, actively interact with the content rather than just duplicating it. Think about structuring your notes so that they better represent the information’s logical flow and facilitate reviewing and understanding difficult subjects. To promote active memory during review sessions, annotate your notes with inquiries, observations, and connections.
Collaborative Learning: Harnessing the Power of Peer Interaction
Since medical school is a collaborative setting, developing a collaborative learning habit might improve your comprehension and point of view. Seek out study groups or have conversations with peers to exchange ideas, dispel concerns, and consider other ways to problem-solve. A group’s variety of opinions may introduce you to other points of view and help you develop a more thorough comprehension of the subject matter.
Moreover, imparting knowledge to your peers is an effective method of strengthening your comprehension. Beyond solitary study, this collaborative learning habit produces an engaging and dynamic learning environment.
By developing five vital habits for efficient medical school preparation, you’re laying the groundwork for success rather than merely adhering to a schedule. More than mere routines, strategic time management, active learning, ongoing self-evaluation, efficient note-taking, and collaborative learning are the cornerstones that will help you get through medical school’s difficulties.
By forming these routines, you’re not only getting ready for tests but also building the foundation for a successful, resilient, and adaptable path to becoming a medical practitioner.

A furious wife cooked her husband’s prized arowana pet because he kept delaying cleaning its tank despite her nagging him repeatedly about it. Yay or nay?
Wife Cooks Husband’s Expensive Pet Fish
Do you keep pets at home? There are so many people who enjoying having different kinds of pets. Though dogs and cats are among the most popular pets to have at home, caring for various species of fish come in third on the list.
Keeping fish as pets can actually be expensive, especially if you plan on picking a specific breed such as koi or arowana.
In fact, the platinum arowana is one of the most expensive breeds – costing as much as $430,000 per fish!
So, imagine the surprise that many netizens (especially fish enthusiasts) upon learning that an Indonesian woman named Mia Kurniawan cooked her husband’s expensive fish! Her reason? She was tired of nagging him about cleaning his tank so she took matters in her own hands.
According to Kurniawan, she had been nagging her husband about cleaning his fish tank because she doesn’t like its dirty appearance.
It’s unknown why her husband didn’t clean the tank, considering that arowanas are such expensive breeds. But what’s clear is that the angry wife couldn’t take it anymore.
The good news, somehow, is that she didn’t actually cook the fish immediately. She actually tried to clean the fish tank so it will look good.
But like many other fish breeds, the arowana needs to be accustomed to the waters it has to be moved to. When Kurniawan cleaned the tank, she didn’t know that and wasn’t able to follow the correct procedure.
Though she did it with good intentions, the arowana grew weak after she cleaned its tank. Considering how expensive it was, Kurniawan decided to cook the fish when it lost its life in the clean tank. What an irony.
Netizens were furious, but it seems that Kurniawan’s husband forgave her and is now looking for a new arowana. Let’s just hope he cleans the tank this time – or it might end up with the same fate as this poor fish.

200 Century Pkwy. in Mount Laurel — Courtesy: Wolf Commercial Real Estate
By Joshua Burd
A service firm owned by Lennar Corp. has leased 5,500 square feet at a Mount Laurel office building, according to Wolf Commercial Real Estate.
The firm, North American Title Co., is among the newest tenants at 200 Century Pkwy., WCRE said in a news release. Wolf Commercial Real Estate’s Leor Hemo represented the tenant in the deal.
The single-story building, also known as The Century Corporate Center, is owned and operated by Needleman Management. The property is located in the heart of the Mount Laurel business district and in close proximity to a host of retailers.
WCRE said the tenant, a real estate settlement service provider, chose 200 Century Parkway because of its location near Route 73, Interstate 295 and The New Jersey Turnpike. The firm includes both agent and underwriter operations, with backing from its publicly traded parent company. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

"Rebekah is an amazing photographer. She was so fun to work with during our engagement photos and all day during our wedding. She made us feel completely comfortable and captured our relationship and style perfectly. All of our photos are beautiful and look very natural. She and her staff are worth every penny and more and will keep us coming back for photos of memorable life moments for years to come."
and is the one vendor you don’t have to worry about! Our wedding day she captured every moment and did everything she could to make sure my husband and I got our dream pictures. Her photography is light, bright, whimsical, and is the perfect mix of traditional and edgy! "
I have followed her photos for years and dreamed that she would be the one to photograph our love story, especially considering our small history with photo shoots in the past! ;) I'm so thankful we made that decision! ....Every "what if" that I had, she had an answer for! She knows what she's doing and she's dang good at it! On our wedding day it was freezing cold and super windy but I can tell you that had absolutely no affect on our pictures what's so ever! ...
We could not have asked for a better photographer for our wedding! Rebekah is very professional and is able to take charge, while still making you feel calm and comfortable. She helped to make the day run smoothly and alleviated stress. Her sense of humor made the process of taking pictures fun and enjoyable. Our pictures turned out beautiful! We absolutely LOVE them! I highly recommend her.
Bekah is a sweet, thoughtful person through and through, and really takes the time to get to know her brides, the couple, and even our families and friends (three months after our wedding, and my mom and maid-of-honor are still talking about how much fun Bekah is!!). Most importantly, the photos we ended up with are so beautiful and capture the essence of the day perfectly. All in all, Rebekah and her studio are 110% recommended!!
Hiring her was the best decision outside of marrying my husband. I didn't have to worry about a thing. I was THAT confident in her character and her abilities. I'm not exaggerating when I say she's the best. I've referred her over and over and over again and she has delivered. You want fabulous wedding pictures, then do yourself a favor and stop looking. Trust me.
We just got our wedding pictures back and words cannot express the love I feel for the images. Bex was able to create a wedding gallery that so perfectly captured the day. She and her second Suzy were incredible! They were always "around" but never in the way and they captured the most stunning candid shots as well as the bridal portraits. I know budgets can be scary and weddings are expensive, but to me, the pictures are what last forever!
"She is worth every penny and was so fun to spend the day with and her work speaks for itself. So many photos I couldn't believe it was us!" | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

As therapists, we often hear our clients feeling like they are boxed in by their anger. This overwhelmed state of mind can leave them feeling resistant to strategies that can help reduce anger such as deep breathing, muscle relaxation, being able to engage in cognitive reframing of anger-related thoughts, or exploring underlying, primary feelings that drive anger (such as anxiety or shame).
The following, easy to visualize, empowering metaphor can quickly help clients free themselves from feeling trapped in by anger.
Free Yourself from Feeling Boxed in By Anger
Visualize your anger as a box you are climbing out of. Now imagine the soothing feelings you have by seeing yourself in open space — free to roam. Stay with this image, and now look back at the box that you stepped outside of. As you gaze back at the angry box that you left behind, visualize it progressively shrinking and being farther and farther behind in the distance.

Antarctic ice-core data reveal that the atmosphere experienced abrupt centennial increases in CO<inf>2</inf> concentration during the last deglaciation (∼18 thousand to 11 thousand years ago). Establishing the role of ocean circulation in these changes requires highresolution, accurately dated marine records. Here, we report radiocarbon data from uranium-thorium-dated deep-sea corals in the Equatorial Atlantic and Drake Passage over the past 25,000 years. Two major deglacial radiocarbon shifts occurred in phase with centennial atmospheric CO<inf>2</inf> rises at 14.8 thousand and 11.7 thousand years ago. We interpret these radiocarbon-enriched signals to represent two short-lived (less than 500 years) "overshoot" events, with Atlantic meridional overturning stronger than that of the modern era. These results provide compelling evidence for a close coupling of ocean circulation and centennial climate events during the last deglaciation. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
We present a one-dimensional coupled ring resonator lattice exhibiting a variant of the non-Hermitian skin effect (NHSE) that we call the anomalous Floquet NHSE. Unlike existing approaches to achieving the NHSE by engineering gain and loss on different ring segments, our design uses fixed on-site gain or loss in each ring. The anomalous Floquet NHSE is marked by the existence of skin modes at every value of the Floquet quasienergy, allowing for broadband asymmetric transmission. Varying the gain or loss induces a non-Hermitian topological phase transition, reversing the localization direction of the skin modes. An experimental implementation in an acoustic lattice yields good agreement with theoretical predictions, with a very broad relative bandwidth of around 40%.

This study characterized a lactic acid bacterium Leuconostoc mesenteroides HJ69 at biochemical and molecular level, isolate from traditional Korean fermented food Kimchi. Cell free supernatant (CFS) of L. mesenteroides HJ69 exhibited significant (P < 0.05) antibacterial effect as diameters of inhibition zones (14.34 ± 0.31 – 18.21 ± 0.23 mm) against the tested foodborne pathogenic bacteria with minimum inhibitory concentration and minimum bactericidal concentration values found in the range of 250–2,000 and 500–2,000 μg/mL, respectively. Further, CFS of L. mesenteroides HJ69 revealed its mode of action on membrane integrity as confirmed by the increased release of potassium ions (800 and 750 mM/L), loss of 260-nm absorbing materials (3.85 and 3.77 OD), and increase in relative electrical conductivity (8.6 and 8.2%) against two selected bacteria L. monocytogenes KCTC-3569 (Gram-positive) and Escherichia coli O157:H7 (Gram-negative), respectively. The above findings hypothesize that L. mesenteroides HJ69 compromised its mode of action on membrane integrity, suggesting its enormous potential in the food industry. Practical Applications: Asian countries have enormous use of fermented food products enriched with large populations of health-beneficial lactic acid bacteria (LAB). This study describes the isolation of a LAB strain Leuconostoc mesenteroides HJ69 from traditional Korean fermented food Kimchi along with its biochemical and molecular characterization. The cell free supernatant of L. mesenteroides HJ69 displayed remarkable antibacterial effect against various foodborne pathogenic bacteria with a hypothesized mode of action in several assays. These findings suggest that L. mesenteroides HJ69 could be an effective candidate for its practical application in food industry to control the proliferation of foodborne pathogenic bacteria as a natural antimicrobial agent. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Gutter cleaning is essential for every home owner to clean the gutters in their home every once in a while. This being a dangerous task, most people hire a professional company to do the task but with the right safety procedures, it’s very possible to do it yourself. You should use a gutter cleaning tool that keeps you from having to climb a ladder and even using your hands to grab the dirt and grime. Gutters should be cleaned at least twice in a year and at best four times in a year.
In order to decide on whether to do the cleaning yourself or seek professional help check on the status of your gutter. If is damaged, for example; loose nails and screws, has bends and breakage or gaps in the walls. then I would strongly advise to get professionals to clean.
Professionals will do the job better and faster, saving you money that you would spend on frequent repairs and buying of the equipment’s needed.
If you do however, decide to do it yourself, then there are important steps to for you to follow.
Gutter cleaning essentials.
One of the main essentials of gutter cleaning is to have the right gear. The right gear will aid you to work easier and faster without being self-conscious about getting an accident;
- Protective Eyeware–This will help protect your eyes from any thing that might fall on you
- Protective mask—For your nose and mouth to protect your from any discomfort that may occur due to the smell from the gutter
- Gloves—This will protect your hands from any cuts from sharp metals and also enable you to grab dirt and filth with no fear of infections. Or use a tool that you do not have to grab the product in the gutter.
- A Safe Ladder – Using a ladder designed to carry your weight and sets securely against the house is essential. Or you could use a tool that is designed to reach the gutter without a ladder.
- Old Work Clothes—This helps to protect your body thus it’s recommended to wear long sleeved shirts and pants.
- Tight Fitting Clothes—loose clothes can get caught by nails and other objects and cause serious accidents
- Sunscreen—you may have to be on the roof or outside for a long period of time thus it’s important to protect yourself from the sun. This will save you another trip to the clinic after you’re done.
- Gutter Cleaning Tool – There are many tools designed to make this job easier without getting on a ladder or hiring a professional. Go to this site for 8 of the Best Gutter Cleaning Tools. https://reviewrockers.com/best-gutter-cleaning-tools
Once you have all these things it’s time to begin cleaning.
Steps to gutter cleaning
A Gutter Cleaning Tool
- Ensure you have a scoop to help you collect all the dirt, junk and debris rather than using your hands to do it. This is especially so if there is a flood of water which will make it impossible to see what you are collecting.
- Most people go up to the roof with a tarp in order to put the garbage collected in. Well, as much as using a tarp is very essential, going up to the roof with it is one of the major causes of accidents.
- Leave the tarp at the bottom of your ladder and drop the junk in it from the roof.
- Once you’re done, flush out the gutter with your hose. This is because the remaining residue is small enough to be flushed out. Flush it out till only clean water is visible.
- Then to finish it off, clean the gutter completely! You might want to put 50% bleach in a spayer to clean any mildew off the outside of the gutter. https://reviewrockers.com/best-gutter-cleaning-tools/ | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
The Surprising Link Between Exfoliation and Collagen Production
When it comes to skincare, exfoliation is often praised for its ability to improve skin texture and appearance. But did you know that exfoliation can also play a role in promoting collagen production? In this blog, we’ll explore the fascinating connection between exfoliation and collagen and how incorporating regular exfoliation into your skincare routine can support a youthful, radiant complexion.
Collagen is a vital protein that provides structure, strength, and elasticity to our skin. It plays a crucial role in maintaining a smooth, plump complexion. Unfortunately, as we age, collagen production naturally declines, leading to the development of fine lines, wrinkles, and a loss of firmness.
The Exfoliation Effect:
While exfoliation itself doesn’t directly stimulate collagen synthesis, it can create an environment that promotes collagen support. Here’s how:
1. Enhanced Cell Turnover: Exfoliation involves removing dead skin cells from the surface of the skin. By eliminating this layer of buildup, exfoliation stimulates cell turnover, encouraging the growth of fresh, healthy skin cells. This turnover supports a more efficient collagen synthesis process.
2. Increased Product Penetration: Exfoliation creates a clean canvas by eliminating barriers like dead skin cells. This allows skincare products, particularly those containing collagen-boosting ingredients like peptides or retinol, to penetrate more effectively into the deeper layers of the skin. By reaching the appropriate skin layers, these products can promote collagen production and enhance its benefits.
3. Improved Blood Circulation: Exfoliation stimulates blood circulation to the skin’s surface. This increased blood flow carries vital nutrients, oxygen, and growth factors that can nourish the skin cells responsible for collagen production. The improved circulation can potentially optimize collagen synthesis and support its maintenance.
Choosing the Right Exfoliation Method:
To harness the collagen-promoting benefits of exfoliation, it’s important to select the right method for your skin type. There are two main types of exfoliation: physical and chemical.
1. Physical Exfoliation: This involves using a scrub, brush, or exfoliating tool to manually slough off dead skin cells.
2. Chemical Exfoliation: This method involves using chemical agents, such as alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs) or beta-hydroxy acids (BHAs), to dissolve the bonds between dead skin cells. AHAs are water-soluble and work on the skin’s surface, while BHAs are oil-soluble and penetrate deeper into the pores. Choose the appropriate acid and concentration based on your skin’s needs.
Exfoliation may not directly stimulate collagen production, but it certainly plays a supporting role in promoting collagen synthesis and maintenance. By incorporating regular exfoliation into your skincare routine, you can enhance cell turnover, optimize product absorption, and improve blood circulation—all of which contribute to a healthier skin environment for collagen support. Remember to choose an exfoliation method that is suitable for your skin type and consult with a skincare professional if you have specific concerns or conditions.
Unlock the power of exfoliation and embrace the journey to a more youthful, collagen-infused complexion. Your skin will thank you with a renewed glow and lasting radiance! | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Entering the Formula 1 Sprint Race at the Qatar Grand Prix McLaren wanted a one-two result to inch closer to the Constructors’ Championship.
They did just that, as Oscar Piastri took first followed by Lando Norris to lockout the front row for McLaren.
Norris, who has faced criticism for his inability to maintain a lead from pole position, did everything he needed on the opening lap to keep the lead over George Russell at the start. Just behind him, teammate Oscar Piastri made a tremendous move on Russell into Turn 3, getting around the Mercedes driver to give McLaren an early one-two at the front.
Russell, however, kept the pressure on Piastri, shaping a move on the McLaren driver on Lap 4. While he could not complete the overtake, his pace gave those on the McLaren pit wall something to think about over the next few laps. Norris eased his pace at the front to pull Piastri within one second of him at the front, trying to create a DRS train to pull Piastri around the track and fend off the Mercedes driver.
“I’m trying to give Oscar DRS every lap,” reported Norris over the radio to his team.
On Lap 13 fans were treated to a preview of 2025, as future teammates Charles Leclerc and Lewis Hamilton battled it out early in the lap, with Leclerc finally making the overtake stick on his future teammate to slot into P5.
Russell had another charge at Piastri at the start of Lap 14, nosing down to the inside at Turn 1, but Piastri slammed the door shut on the Mercedes to hold the position. Russell complained over the radio that Piastri’s defensive shape came “late,” but race officials did not take any action.
With four laps to go Norris noted that he was starting to lose the front tires, and the call came from the pit wall to “save” Piastri, and bring him back within DRS range to help him defend against Russell.
On the final lap Russell had another look at Piastri on the inside of Turn 1, but Piastri again slammed the door shut to hold on to P2. Right before the start/finish line Norris slid to the side, letting Piastri take the victory and taking second to give McLaren the one-two finish they wanted.
“We scored one-two, that’s what we were aiming for, we got maximum points,” said Norris trackside following the race.
“It was about defense for the whole race to be honest,” admitted Piastri after the race. “Nice to have a McLaren one-two.”
The move was likely a return of the favor from Norris, who captured the F1 Sprint Race in São Paulo as Piastri moved to the side, giving Norris an extra point. At that moment in the season Norris was still in pursuit of Max Verstappen in the Drivers’ Championship.
But with that title done and dusted the focus for McLaren is on the Constructors’ title. The one-two finish is what mattered today. With the 15 points, and results elsewhere, McLaren now hold a 30-point lead over Ferrari, and a 67-point lead over Red Bull, in that title fight.
McLaren needs to have a lead over each team of 45 points when this weekend is over to clinch the title.
Russell finished third behind Norris, with the Ferrari duo of Carlos Sainz Jr. and Charles Leclerc taking fourth and fifth, respectively. Lewis Hamilton took sixth, while Haas driver Nico Hülkenberg delivered a strong performance to take seventh, banking two critical points for the team in their fight for sixth.
Max Verstappen took the final points position, finishing eighth. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Regardless of the size of any community, there is always one thing that every community needs which are resident volunteers. April is National Volunteer Month and I am grateful for the wonderful homeowners who have generously given of their time to serve. Robson Ranch has volunteers serving in the capacity of a committee, advisory council, groups and clubs, charitable organizations, and simply neighbors to neighbors offering a helpful hand.
Successful volunteers have these common traits:
Kindness and genuinely likes people: A kind volunteer goes a long way because everyone can use more “nice things” in their lives.
Initiative and determination: A great volunteer isn’t afraid to take tackle projects because they take ownership in projects–there for the long-term to help organize. They are willing to look at timelines, how to do the project and who should be involved.
Excellent communication skills: They ask questions, listen and document their work. A great volunteer is willing to share knowledge and help others.
Active effort to promote the community: They may not have all the skills for a specific project, but they recruit help from others and participate where they can.
Willingness to learn new things: Volunteers have to adapt to changes along the way. They recognize that flexibility is key to getting the job done while building relationships along the way.
While the entire month of April is known for being National Volunteer Month, the week of April 23–29, 2017 is celebrated as National Volunteer Week (yes a whole week of celebrating!). Congratulations to all of the wonderful people we have at Robson Ranch who, regardless of frequency, have volunteered this past year. On behalf of the Board of Directors, myself and the entire staff–we all thank you very much!
If you have a volunteer story that you’d like to share with me I’d love to hear about it. Please contact me at [email protected]. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
Snow, Icy Roads to Hamper Travel Across Much of Wyoming [VIDEO]
Snow, wind and icy conditions are expected to make for difficult travel across much of Wyoming through Thursday.
K2 Radio Meteorologist Don Day of DayWeather, Inc., says Interstate 80 and mountain passes will see the highest impacts, while sections of I-25 and I-90 are also expected to be in poor shape due to the incoming weather.
Far western areas of Wyoming should see developing snow showers beginning late Tuesday. By Wednesday morning, snowfall will spread east to the Elk Mountain and Arlington areas along I-80.
Wednesday will bring snow showers across most of the state. The heaviest snowfall amounts are expected across the south-central portion of the state to include the I-80 and I-25 corridors, but also including Pinedale, Riverton, Shoshoni, Wright, Lusk and Torrington.
"While snowfall totals won't be terribly heavy, icy road conditions will be developing statewide," Day says.
Another storm system could bring snow to parts of Wyoming late Friday into Saturday, Day added.

How much meat can I expect to get?
The average ready-to-butcher Angus cow weighs 1,150 pounds. This can vary a lot, depending on breed, finishing and management of the producer marketing the animal.
Once the animal is butchered and hide, head and internal organs removed, it usually weighs about 62 percent of the live weight. This is called the hanging weight. On that 1,150 pound animal that would be about 713 pounds.
Most producers figure the quarter/half/whole price based on the hanging weight.
After the beef hangs and ages for two to three weeks, which tenderizes and develops flavor in the meat (and also shrinks a little as some of the water evaporates) the carcass is broken down further, and excess bone, connective tissue and fat is removed.
About 21 percent of the hanging weight is removed in this process, leaving about 563 pounds of edible meat from a whole animal.
So, if you pay (for example) $3.25 a pound, figured on hanging weight, the actual price per pound will be about $4.35, if it processes according to the averages. Most custom meat processors charge from $.90 to $1.20 per pound, hanging weight, to process, so you’ll be looking at about $5.12 total, per pound for processed beef.
Keep in mind that includes all steaks, hamburger, roasts, ribs, etc.
How much of that will be hamburger?
How much hamburger you get depends somewhat on how you order it. Hamburger comes from the parts of the animal that are too tough or difficult to cook, or are too small to cook as steaks or roasts. If you don’t cook roasts or flat iron steaks, for example, you can ask to have those ground. If you don’t ask for any special cuts, on average, about 38 percent of the edible portion of the animal will be ground into hamburger. So on our average 637-pound animal, you’d expect about 242 pounds of hamburger.
Can I buy just hamburger?
Maybe. Some people may be selling animals that are older and less tender than a typical butcher animal, and may be most suitable for hamburger, rather than cutting into steaks and roasts. In that case, unless they’re labeled for resale, those animals would need to be sold by the half or quarter as well.
What is “hanging weight”?
Hanging weight is how much the carcass weighs after it’s skinned and the head and internal organs are removed. This is usually about 62 percent of the live weight of the animal, and what most private beef sellers base their per-pound cost on.
The butcher shop wants “cutting orders.” What does that mean?
“Cutting orders” are how you want your meat cut and packaged. This includes how much fat you want in your burger (standard is usually 85% lean), how thick you want your steaks, how much hamburger you want in a package (usually 1-2 pounds) how many steaks per package, whether you want round steaks tenderized, cubed or left alone, what size you want the roasts, whether you want the ribeye as steaks or roasts. There are a lot of questions, and many processors have a “cut sheet” they ask the customer to fill out in person, or over the phone. You can also decide if you want the organ meats, like the liver, heart and tongue, plus soup bones, ox tail and tallow (extra fat they trim off). | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |
Law enforcement agencies made more than 1 million requests for wireless phone information last year, according to data provided by wireless companies to Sen. Edward J. Markey.
That’s leading to the Massachusetts Democrat making a new call for congressional action to make the process more consistent and transparent.
Markey’s been investigating the collection of cellphone data since his time in the House. He noted in a press release that major wireless carriers have different standards and requirements for providing information to law enforcement sources.
“We need a 4th amendment for the 21st century. Disclosure of personal information from wireless devices raises significant legal and privacy concerns, particularly for innocent consumers,” Markey said in a statement. “That is why I plan to introduce legislation so that Americans can have confidence that their information is protected and standards are in place for the retention and disposal of this sensitive data.”
On Monday, Markey outlined what he would envision being included in that legislative proposal:
1. Require regular disclosures from law enforcement on the nature and volume of requests.
2. Curb bulk data information requests such as cell tower dumps that capture information on a large group of mobile phone users at a particular period of time and require that any request be more narrowly tailored, when possible.
3. Require, in the case of emergency circumstances, a signed, sworn statement from law enforcement authorities after receipt of information from a carrier that justifies the need for the emergency access.
4. Mandate creation of rules by the Federal Communications Commission to limit how long wireless carriers can retain consumers’ personal information. Right now, no such standards exist.
5. Require location-tracking authorization only with a warrant when there is probable cause to believe it will uncover evidence of a crime. This is the traditional standard for police to search individual homes. | CC-MAIN-2024-51 |

Home Solutions Fluorite Flotation Process
Process methods of fluorite ore are gravity separation and flotation. Mineral processing equipment includes gravity separation equipment and flotation equipment; gravity separation equipment: jig, only jig can deal with the coarse fluorite ore. Fluorite flotation equipment is the similar with other mineral flotation equipment including crusher, ball mill, flotation machine etc..
Fluorite Flotation Process is applied for refractory fluorite with complicated properties such as high mud content, impurity containing, fine particle distribution etc..
The sulfide ore contained in fluorite is floated with xanthate collector, and then fatty acid collectors float fluorite. In flotation of fluorite, it can be also feasible to add a small amount of sulfide mineral to inhibit residual sulfide mineral, and ensures the quality of fluorite concentrate.
Mixed flotation of fluorite and barite flotation, and then separate them. In mixed flotation, obtain mixed concentrate with oleic acid as collector. Mixed concentrate separation can use positive or reverse flotation to obtain fluorite concentrate.
The fatty acid collects fluorite, and sodium silicate restrains quartz. The dosage of sodium silicate should be controlled properly; a small amount has activation to the fluorite, but inhibition function is not enough; excessive inhibits fluorite. Sometimes in order to increase the inhibitory effect of sodium silicate on quartz, some multivalent metal ions will be add.
A fluorite dressing plant in Hebei, the fluorite with low ore grade, high oxidation, fine granularity distribution and small hardness, the original production process was concentrate regrinding and seven times cleaning, concentrate grade of 88%, recovery rate of 75.56%. The poor dressing indexes seriously affected the production indexes and economic benefit of enterprise. Therefore, it commissioned Xinhai to reform technology. After fluorite beneficiation tests, Xinhai improved the flotation process and the inhibitors. Indexes comparison as follow:
After the reformation, the fluorite flotation indexes have been improved obviously, increasing the economic income of 3200000 yuan/year and the profit of 1500000 yuan/year.

Question by Chaotic: How fast is too fast to drink 750ml of vodka on your own?
Like a 2-6er of smirnoff vodka red 40% alcohol.
What about 375 ml with 40% alcohol?
And should I mix it with ________ or just have it straight up or on ice?
Does it even really matter? =P
I’m planning on drinking lots of water too to avoid hangovers.
I’m actually leaning towards getting some Smirnoff ice, but those two were better deals.. but at least i know my tolerance with Smirnoff ice.

Answer by passionate
I’m not really sure but why not drink it straight without the ice? Ice waters down the affect of the alcohol and you can drink some corn or vegetable oil before the alcohol to stop from getting real drunk as well . water seems to make you more drunk while drinking.
