Review: Ty Segall, 'Ty Segall'
|
Note: NPR's First Listen audio comes down after the album is released. At his best, Ty Segall is a master songwriter trapped in the body of a punk — although the limitations of his garage-inflected rock actually keep him grounded and focused rather than restricted. The California bandleader's prolific output over the past decade has grown increasingly ambitious in its own humble and rough-hewn way; at the same time, he refuses to set aside the gnarled riffs, spilled booze and busted knuckles of his most blistering work. That hasn't changed on his latest album (his second, after one in 2008, to bear the name Ty Segall). What's different is an even more ardent attempt at confining chaos and squeezing catchy, catastrophically massive pop gems out of it. "Break A Guitar" busts the album wide open right at the outset, as it harnesses a thunderous glam-rock stomp that barely conceals huge hooks and Segall's supple, helium-infused melodies. "Take my guitar / I'll be at the bar," he sings at the end, adding a Replacements-esque twist to an otherwise swaggering demonstration of rock 'n' roll overconfidence. The distortion grows even more corrosive in "The Only One," whose dueling guitar leads (between Segall and his longtime second guitarist Emmett Kelly) erupt gloriously into a fugue of frenzied abandon. "Thank You Mr. K" ups the ante even further, succumbing to a psychedelic-meets-hardcore attack that chugs along at the breakneck speed of a bad, bleak trip. But Ty Segall does more than throttle and thrash. "Talkin'," a pointed parable about self-absorption, is wrapped in softly strummed acoustic guitars. "Orange Color Queen" picks up on the same vibe, but with a more reflective bent; like a daydream on a rowboat in the middle of a slow-moving river, the song meanders through a vivid landscape of heartache while Segall does his best impression of a warbling angel. Mikal Cronin, the group's bassist (and an excellent bandleader in his own right), joins Segall on vocals in "Take Care (To Comb Your Hair)," another acoustic song whose plaintive, plucky tendencies shift deliriously from folky tenderness to needling, fuzzed-out riffage by song's end. The album's most ambitious moments, though, appear in "Warm Hands (Freedom Returned)." At 10-plus minutes, it's a break from Segall's standard three-and-a-half-minute hand grenades; heroically, it doesn't waste a second in its pursuit of pop-history synthesis, starting out as a paint-peeling ball of snarling menace before dissolving into a wonderfully sparse, spacious jam. "Papers" may not be as ambitious, lengthwise, but it stretches Segall's canvas in a different way. Keyboardist Ben Boye's piano is given a more prominent spot in the complex arrangement, and the entire song reflects a Beatles-like sense of sophistication, complete with cryptic lyrics and elusive melancholia. Segall's role models are still as plain as day — Marc Bolan, Ray Davies and Syd Barrett chief among them — but on Ty Segall, he's taken yet another strong step toward turning retroactive garage rock into high art.

The agency OK'd new labels for the drug zolpidem, a popular sleep aid that has been linked to motor and cognitive impairment the day following its use .
The FDA asked drug makers in January to lower the recommended dosage of the powerful pill, especially for women who have been found to take longer to break down the drug than men .
|
By . Daily Mail Reporter . PUBLISHED: . 16:00 EST, 15 May 2013 . | . UPDATED: . 16:01 EST, 15 May 2013 . The Food and Drug Administration has approved changes to the . label of popular sleep drug zolpidem that, in some cases, even include a . warning not to drive a car the entire day after taking the drug. On Tuesday, the regulator approved the changes for two . brand-name producers of the drug: Sanofi, which makes Ambien and Ambien CR and . Meda AB, which produces Edluar. The agency said patients who take zolpidem extended-release . drugs, such as Ambien CR, should not drive or take part in activities that . require complete mental alertness the entire next day. Lights out: The FDA has OK'd changes made to labels of brands of the sleep drug zolpidem at its own behest . The regulator said that women were more susceptible to the . risk because they eliminate the drug from the blood more slowly than men. Approved changes also include a lowered dose recommendation. The agency said that research had shown that the drugs . remain in the bloodstream at levels high enough to interfere with morning . driving, which increases the risk of car accidents. The FDA in January asked zolpidem manufacturers to reduce . recommended dosages on the drugs’ labels. They also said doctors should aim to . prescribe the lowest dose possible that will successfully treat insomnia. Strong: Zolpidem, the active ingredient in popular sleep aid Ambien, has been found to last far longer than first believed, which will now be reflected on labels . Today, the changes implemented by those manufacturers were . approved. The FDA recommended doses of 5 mg for women and either 5 mg . or 10 mg for men for immediate-release zolpidem products such as Sanofi's . Ambien. The initial dose of extended-release products is 6.25 mg for . women and either 6.25 or 12.5 mg for men, according to the FDA. The popularity of zolpidem has led to some highly visible . incidents caused by its use on recent years. Danger: The FDA says the extended release form of zolpidem can make driving dangerous for a full day after its use . Last July, Kerry Kennedy, daughter of Robert Kennedy and . ex-wife of New York Governor Andrew Cuomo was reportedly under the influence of . the drug when she smashed into a tractor trailer rig then fled the scene in . Westchester County, New York. Kennedy later claimed she inadvertently swallowed one of the . slim, white pills instead of a different, similar looking pill the morning before . the crash. Difference: Women were found to be especially susceptible to Ambien 'hangover' and labels have been changed to reflect that . Kennedy’s cousin, former Rhode Island Rep. Patrick Kennedy, . crashed his Ford Mustang into a barrier near Washington, DC’s Capitol Hill in . 2006 and would later attribute his disorientation that led to the accident to . Ambien. But the new FDA-approved guidelines prove disorientation . isn’t just a problem for the elite. The regulator also said women are more susceptible to the . risk of disorientation the day after use of zolpidem, as they eliminate the . drug from the blood more slowly than men.

Transformation behavior of two Ni–Mn–Ga alloys
|
Abstract The transformation behavior of Ni50.5Mn30.4Ga19.1 and Ni53.7Mn26.4Ga19.9 was studied with ac magnetic susceptibility, differential scanning calorimetry, in-situ optical microscopy and X-ray diffractometry. The liquidus, solidus and L1 ŕ B2' temperatures were detected for the alloys. The transformation enthalpies of melting, solidification and martensitic/reverse reactions were determined. In Ni53.7Mn26.4Ga19.9 the magnetic transition was clearly below the parent to martensite phase transformation and did not have hysteresis. The transformation sequence is suggested as Pparam ŕ Tparam ŕ Tferrom with reverse reactions in respective order. In Ni50.5Mn30.4Ga19.1 the temperatures of the magnetic transition and structural phase transformations are close to each other and the Curie temperature shows a hysteresis of 9 K during cooling-heating cycle. Based on the combined measurements, the transformation sequences are assumed to be during cooling Pparam ŕ 7Mparam ŕ 7Mferrom ŕ Tferrom and Tferrom ŕ Tparam ...

[A return to reason. The problematic of the construction of knowing how to discipline by means of nursing diagnoses].
|
This article is adapted from a conference paper in which some ideas were transmitted which will be made concrete in a problematic analysis on nursing diagnoses. This takes place upon perceiving the necessity in the process of professional development and nursing discipline, to shed some light and comprehend what other viewpoints bring to the understanding of assistance, teaching and investigative practices. Today more than ever it has become necessary to recuperate a problematic and critical thinking which permits us to go beyond that which has been presented to us as licit and true knowledge as "the only thought" on occasions. One perceives certain stiffness in the habitual forms of thinking about treatment (the objective of Nursing as a discipline) and an ostensible "loss of sense" in practice; and this crisis threatens a rigorous exam and a questioning of the traditional forms of thinking, describing, teaching and exercising treatment practice. This is the pretense of the following essay.

This paper outlines the various stages of spectrum policy in India and highlights the underlying principle of maximal usage of spectrum advocated in the policy. It argues that allocative efficiency is a more appropriate policy measure and illustrates the absence of allocative efficiency in the Indian mobile industry. Possible causes of allocative inefficiency including insufficient spectrum allocation per operator, underpricing of spectrum, and inefficient use of the radio access network infrastructure are highlighted. Corresponding policy implications and prescriptions are discussed.

Santi Denia
|
Santiago Denia Sánchez (born 9 March 1974), commonly known as Santi, is a Spanish retired footballer who played as a central defender, and is a manager.
He appeared in 297 La Liga matches over 11 seasons (two goals scored), with Albacete and Atlético Madrid. He won the 1996 league championship with the latter club.
Club career
Born in Albacete, Castile-La Mancha, Santi began playing professionally with hometown's Albacete Balompié. He made his La Liga debut at age 18, and automatically became an undisputed starter in a side that constantly managed to retain their top flight status.
In the summer of 1995, Santi signed with Atlético Madrid, being crowned league and Copa del Rey champion in his first season as part of a defensive line which also included club youth graduates Juan Manuel López and Roberto Solozábal. He appeared in 37 league matches during the campaign.
Following Atlético's 2000 relegation (he collected a career-worst 17 yellow cards), Santi gradually lost his importance in the team's plans. In 2004–05, after the signing of Pablo Ibáñez – who also came from Albacete – he featured in no games at all during the first half of the season, and was subsequently allowed to leave on loan in January 2005 for his first club. The move was made permanent in June and he retired after two more years, with Albacete now in the second division.
Santi eventually returned to Atlético Madrid in early February 2009, as assistant to newly appointed Abel Resino who had replaced Javier Aguirre. He was a caretaker manager for the game against RCD Mallorca on 24 October, before the appointment of Quique Sánchez Flores.
International career
Santi was capped twice for Spain, his debut coming on 11 October 1997 in a 1998 FIFA World Cup qualifier against Faroe Islands (3–1 in Gijón, playing the entire match). He still featured in a friendly win over Sweden in March 1998, but did not make the final cut for the final stages in France.
Previously, Santi appeared for the nation at the 1996 Summer Olympics.

Eastern Province Elephants
|
The Eastern Province Elephants (known as the Multisure Eastern Province Elephants for sponsorship reasons) are a South African rugby union team that participates in the annual Currie Cup and Rugby Challenge competitions. They are governed by the Eastern Province Rugby Union (EPRU or EP Rugby). The team represents the Western half of the Eastern Cape province, and they play their home games at the Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium in Port Elizabeth.
In February 2018, the EPRU announced that the name of the team would revert to Eastern Province Elephants for the 2018 season.
History
The Eastern Province Rugby Football Union was founded in 1888. The team was originally a representative team, drawing players from within the provincial union area's local clubs.
Professionalism and Super Rugby
However, with the advent of professionalism in rugby union in 1995, the team contracted players from various areas. The Eastern Province Elephants is a professional team run by the EPRU, who are also responsible for junior representative rugby teams and administrative matters in the region.
Prior to 2010, they were known as the Mighty Elephants, but in order to align themselves with the Super Rugby side the Southern Kings, who were also governed by the EPRU, they changed their name to Eastern Province Kings. After the 2010 World Cup, they moved their offices to the new Port Elizabeth Stadium to establish their new headquarters. The team is the primary feeder to the Southern Kings, which also incorporates the and the .
Financial problems and liquidation
After late payments of player salaries throughout most of the 2015 season, it came to a head in November 2015, when the EPRU failed to meet a final deadline imposed by the South African Rugby Players Association. All players' contracts were declared null and void, leading to an exodus of players. A few days later, the South African Rugby Union announced that they would take control of the affiliated Southern Kings Super Rugby franchise, and released an operational plan in early December which indicated that SARU would operate the franchise independently from the Eastern Province Kings.
After a petition handed to president Cheeky Watson, in which players announced their refusal to play for the Eastern Province Kings or Southern Kings until certain issues were sorted out, was not met, the South African Rugby Players' Association submitted a liquidation application in January 2016 against EP Rugby (Pty) Ltd on behalf of eighteen Eastern Province Kings players who were not included in the Southern Kings Super Rugby squad for 2016 and have not received their salaries since September 2015. The Port Elizabeth High Court provisionally liquidated Eastern Province Rugby in March 2016 and imposed a deadline of 10 May 2016 to pay outstanding player salaries, before the liquidation order would being made final.
The Eastern Province Kings submitted details of a rescue package to the High Court in May 2016, which saw the liquidation order being postponed until 4 August 2016. In July 2016, it emerged that the rescue package would not come to fruition and SARU withdrew their appeal against the final liquidation order. On 4 August 2016, the High Court ruled that the Eastern Province Kings should be liquidated.
Within hours of the liquidation being finalised, SARU released a statement that an Eastern Province Kings team funded by the Nelson Mandela Bay Municipality would continue to participate in the 2016 Currie Cup Premier Division.
Stadium
The team was originally based at St George's Park. This was also where the very first South African Rugby and Cricket Tests took place. They shared the ground with the Eastern Province cricket team.
In 1959, the EPRU decided to move the team to the then named Boet Erasmus Stadium and the inauguration took place in 1960 with the test between the Springboks and Scotland on 30 April 1960. The stadium was later named Telkom Park, due to a naming rights deal, and then renamed to the current name, the EPRU Stadium. The team played most home matches at the stadium, with a few hosted at other venues in Port Elizabeth and surrounding towns. During the late 2000s, the team shared the stadium with football (soccer) club Bay United.
In 2009, the team played its first match at their current home, the Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium.
Honours
The team's major tournament wins include the 2002 Vodacom Shield, 2010 Currie Cup First Division and 2012 Currie Cup First Division.
Results by season
The table below indicates the Elephants' recent finishes. This includes games played as Eastern Province, Eastern Province Kings and Mighty Elephants.

Will a bigger table make my computer faster?
|
I just received a call on our support line from an elderly gentleman.
He wanted to find out if having a bigger table would:
**A)** Make his computer faster.
and
**B)** Make it work harder.
I proceeded to tell him that as i do not know the specifications of said table nor the layout of his premises i can't make a judgement for him.
Strange day.

District Council of Stockport
|
The District Council of Stockport was a local government area in South Australia seated at Stockport from 1865 to 1932.
History
The council was proclaimed on 23 November 1865 and included land either side of the Gilbert River across the Hundred of Alma from Giles Corner in the north to the Gilbert's confluence with the River Light at Hamley Bridge in the south. The council area thus included south-western and north-western portions of the Hundred of Gilbert and Hundred of Light, respectively, as well as much of the Hundred of Alma. The inaugural councillors were John Lawrie, John Watts. Elisha Manuel, John Young, and Andrew Brakenridge.
On 12 May 1932 the council was amalgamated with the District Council of Gilbert to the north east and District Council of Rhynie to the north, to form the new District Council of Riverton.

While bitrate-reduction video transcoding is a mature research topic, we introduce a new paradigm for the old problem: designing a complexity scalable transcoder where computation can be gracefully traded off with transcoded video quality. Complexity scalability is important when a time-varying number of real-time transcoding sessions must be maintained by the transcoder simultaneously. We present a complexity scalable transcoding algorithm for H.263 based on coding mode transition probabilities. Preliminary results are presented to show potential tradeoffs between computation and transcoded video quality in PSNR.
|
In this paper, we study the problem of video transcoding from MPEG-2 to Windows Media Video (WMV) format, together with several desired functionalities such as bit-rate reduction and spatial resolution downscaling. Based on in-depth analysis of error propagation behavior, we propose two architectures (for different typical application scenarios) that are unique in their complexity scalability and adaptive drifting error control, which in return provide a mechanism to achieve a desired tradeoff between complexity and quality. We perform extensive experiments for various design targets such as complexity, scalability, performance tradeoff, and drifting control effect. The proposed transcoding architectures can be straightforwardly applied to the MPEG-2 to MPEG-4 transcoding applications due to the significant overlap between the MPEG-4 and WMV coding technology

Blockade of glutamate receptors of the NMDA type inhibits the sensitization to psychostimulant drugs, such as amphetamine, that occurs after repeated administration. Both associative (conditioning) and non-associative (pseudo-conditioning) mechanisms may contribute to sensitization phenomena. The aim of the present study was, thus, to determine which type of sensitization is influenced by blockade of NMDA-type receptors by examining the expression (manifestation) of sensitization. Locomotor activity was assessed and, in some experiments, extracellular dopamine in the nucleus accumbens was also assessed using in vivo microdialysis in non-anaesthetized, almost freely moving rats. Male albino Wistar rats of 225–250 g were given 1 mg/kg i.p. d-amphetamine every 2nd day for 7 days and with saline on the other days. Half the rats were exposed to d-amphetamine in the presence of conditioning stimuli (test cage, auditory and olfactory stimulus) and to saline in the home cage in absence of these stimuli, the other half were treated with saline and exposed to the conditioning stimuli and were placed into their home cages (without conditioning stimuli) after treatment with d-amphetamine. Ten days after the end of this treatment, both groups were exposed to the conditioning stimuli and half of each group were pretreated with dizocilpine [(+)-MK-801, 0.1 mg/kg i.p.], a blocker of NMDA receptors, 30 min before administration of 1 mg/kg d-amphetamine.
|
After repeated administration of psychostimulant drugs, a sensitization rather than a tolerance to the behavioral effects can be observed. In our own previous studies, it was shown that both blockade of NMDA glutamate receptors and inhibition of NO synthase selectively inhibited the expression of associative but not non-associative sensitization to D-amphetamine. The present experiments were performed in order to study whether a similar selective inhibition of expression of associative sensitization to cocaine can be observed after blockade of NMDA receptors by MK-801 or inhibition of NO synthase by L-NAME. MK-801 as well as L-NAME inhibited the locomotor activity in acutely cocaine-treated rats. Both drugs did not prevent the sensitization either in the associative or the non-associative group. The results suggest that the acute locomotor effects of cocaine were inhibited by both drugs whereas both the non-associative and the associative sensitization to locomotor effects were not inhibited by blockade of NMDA receptors or inhibition of NO synthase. Accordingly, the expression of neither type of sensitization to cocaine was inhibited by any of these drugs.

A simple process is defined and executed to achieve 20% efficiency for cells fabricated on 156 mm n-Cz Si wafers. The cell structure is n+np+ with the p+ emitter being formed over most of the rear surface by Al alloying, but extended to the wafer edges by a light doping with B. The n+ FSF is doped with P which makes the front surface easy to passivate and contact. B and P dopants are introduced into the wafer by ion implantation and are co-annealed in a single high temperature step, during which a passivating thermal oxide is also grown on the front and back surfaces. The back surface remains textured, and the entire process is additive as the cell structure is built layer-by-layer, with no subtractive steps needed for planarization, stripping diffusion glasses, or creating vias in dielectrics. A key benefit of the extended emitter is to improve p-n junction quality (since the depletion region is essentially confined within the interior of the silicon and does not intersect the surface), as indicated by the pseudo FF regularly exceeding 0.83. In addition, Jsc increases because of the reclaimed Si border area (Al to wafer edge). Cell parameters were found to be tightly distributed. The highest efficiency measured was 20.04% for a 239 cm2 cell with a selective FSF and five busbars. Interconnecting cells in a module could be done with 3M Cu tape or Schmid Tin Pad applied directly to backside Al.

Screen-printed high-efficiency industrial n-type rear-junction silicon solar cells were fabricated on 5-in commercial grade Cz wafers. A furnace-diffused boron emitter and a laser-doped phosphorous front-surface field were applied to produce n-type rear-junction cells with PECVD SiN x on the front and PECVD AlO x /SiN x on the back for surface passivation. All contacts were screen printed. An average efficiency of 20.33% was achieved, while the best efficiency was 20.65%. The initial results indicate that the potential for a higher FF can be achieved by improving the front pattern and optimizing the condition for metallization, enabling an even higher efficiency.

what percentage of louisiana's land area is covered by barrier islands

Fauna of Louisiana The fauna of the State of Louisiana is characterized by the region’s low swamplands, bayous, creeks, woodlands, coastal marshlands and beaches, and barrier islands covering an estimated 20,000 square miles (counting for 40 percent of Louisiana's total land area). Southern Louisiana contains up to fifty percent of the wetlands found in the Continental United States, and are made up of countless bayous and creeks. The Creole State has a humid subtropical climate, perhaps the best example of a humid subtropical climate of all the Southern United States with long, humid and hot summers and short, mild winters.

Consensus in One Communication Step
|
This paper presents a very simple consensus protocol that converges in a single communication step in favorable circumstances. Those situations occur when "enough" processes propose the same value. ("Enough" means "at least (n-f)" where f is the maximum number of processes that can crash in a set of n processes.) The protocol requires f < n/3. It is shown that this requirement is necessary. Moreover, if all the processes that propose a value do propose the same value, the protocol always terminates in one communication step. It is also shown that additional assumptions can help weaken the f < n/3 requirement to f < n/2.

Tufa Bridges The Tufa Bridges are two bridges made of tufa stone located in Schenley Park in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Built in 1908 by George W. Burke, the bridges currently serve as part of a footpath within the park. The idea for the construction of the two bridges came from George Burke, who was the Superintendent of City Parks for the Department of Public Works. Burke had no prior experience in architecture, engineering, building, or designing, but rather he was a horticulturist and city official. Burke was a Pittsburgh native and entered into work with the City of Pittsburgh in 1890
