In any construction of a realistic cockpit, high-performance avionic instruments can be said the next most important equipment next to the control stick, rudder pedals and gauges. However, choices available on the market are limited, especially to those designed for general aviation simulation purposes.
The CNT1 COM/NAV Radio by SIMAV8 is a new avionic equipment that is designed and built with this intention in mind.
In contrast to the bulky Saitek Radio Panel I have been using since 2000, the CNT1 Radio has an appearance of a real replica of a true-to-scale Bendix King Radio unit commonly found on most general light aircraft. Continue reading
Just about to place my order for the Nvidia GTX 1080Ti and found the Titan Xp has arrived.
Although the company claims the card using the new groundbreaking Pascal architecture is now the most powerful graphics card for gaming and VR on the market and can deliver up to 3x the performance of previous-generations, the $1,200 price-tag (wow, nearly double of the GTX 1080Ti) is way too much for most people, including me of course, to afford.
Moreover, the card is only available in the US, Canada and Puerto Rico regions from Nvidia directly for the moment. Continue reading
Nvidia has just announced the official release of the GTX 1080 Ti. With a relatively affordable price, the card even has some features better than the company’s flagship Nvidia Titan X.
Although I said in last May that I would not replace my 18-months old GTX 980 Titan X for the GTX 1080, this Ti one is definitely the card I’ve been waiting for. Aren’t you?
I sometimes receive questions asking me “Why the knobs on one of my FIPs don’t work? They used to be working fine.”
It is a bug in the Saitek driver. When the SaiFlightSimX.xml builds up to a certain number (most likely over 15 from my experience), the knob command assigned to the last gauge (or the last two gauges) becomes not functioning.
Suggested fixes are follows: Continue reading
A few days ago, Kim in Switzerland emailed me that he had built a touch-screen GPS using an iPad (see photo).
Frankly, even though I never thought about the idea of putting the GPS onto an iPad before, I have to admit that my immediate response to Kim’s approach was not excited because there are many apps available to turn the iPad into a second display for Mac or Windows computers.
From the many similar apps I tried before, none of them, in my opinion, was smooth enough to handle the data flow demand to and from FSX or P3D. Some of them even caused serious dragging to the simulator in return.
But after checking the information Kim provided, I found his iPad was wired to his computer, rather than wirelessly connected over the network.
After further Googling the app he recommended, I decided to give it a try. The result is surprisingly good. Continue reading
My system just updated to the latest 1607 version (aka Anniversary Update). As mentioned in my Post 348, I firstly unplugged the Optical Drive and all USB devices before the update. The process went smoothly and took about 30 minutes to complete.
Had a flight for another half hour and found no problem in either software and hardware. Can’t say my system now runs better with the update but the opening of some programs do get faster. Surely, some follow-up tunings are required for personal taste. But overall, I am quite happy with it.
Virtual Reality (VR) is no doubt the hottest topic among game developers and players these days. Last Sunday, I spent a few hours playing FSX-SE with FlyInside on my son’s HTC Vive setup using the “long-deserted” Eclipse Yoke digged up from my storage.
Wow…was my immediate response after entering my first fight over the Friday Harbor in FSX-SE, while I was physically sitting in my son’s living room with the huge VR goggle putting on my face. Continue reading
I have a spare FIP sitting around for quite some times, which is only used occasionally for various testings via my network computer. Yesterday, I decided to throw in the underused FIP to the system to see how it effects.
Actually, the main reason for me not including the spare FIP to my system in the past was because the “6 FIPs + 1 Radio Panel across the top roll” and “1 Switch Panel + 3 FIPs + 1 Multi Panel” on the bottom constituted a pretty symmetric appearance in my 2-stack instrument setup already. And I’ve been using this setup for a very long time. Continue reading
Nvidia’s GeForce GTX 1080 is rumored to be publicly released by the 27th of this month. Some technical websites preview it “twice as fast as a Titan X” but only priced around 60% of its predecessor. The company even calls the card “Gaming Perfected”.
Surely it’s just another marketing buzz word. But still, I can’t help looking forward to seeing what new level this next generation card is going to bring to the various flight simulation platforms nowadays, no matter it is FSX, FSX Steam, P3D or X-Plane. Sadly, it’s not likely that I will replace my Titan X for it, at least not in the coming year. | <urn:uuid:a1329029-e164-4e81-a05e-a731bf4e7a88> | CC-MAIN-2017-34 | https://fsxtimes.wordpress.com/category/hardware/ | 2017-08-20T15:25:25Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2017-34/segments/1502886106779.68/warc/CC-MAIN-20170820150632-20170820170632-00412.warc.gz | en | 0.949437 | 1,164 |

So far, so good.
I hoped I enraptured their attention spans as I played my cello with precision. To their credit, they certainly had more patience than the average listener of top 40 drivel; they were certainly unlike those classless bullies who derogated me at every turn for my musical tastes.
I played some tetrachords in this moment of my piece as I really felt like I was getting into the intensity of this part of the piece.
Then one note slipped as I thrashed my Strings with my bow.
I mentally shook my head.
I didn’t need to throw in some Karl Orff or even Tyondai Braxton in this symphonic movement. | <urn:uuid:e132346f-d94c-4ab1-8f6b-7db5c9115faa> | CC-MAIN-2022-27 | https://cmbbwrites.wordpress.com/2017/07/03/hollandus-landing-chapter-203-yasmina-chung-part-xviii/ | 2022-06-26T02:47:36Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-27/segments/1656103036363.5/warc/CC-MAIN-20220626010644-20220626040644-00238.warc.gz | en | 0.985075 | 152 |

Admiral™ Dog Waste Station
- Dispenser is available for roll bag or header bag
- Angled dispenser roof with drip edge for better drainage
- 11 gallon sealed waste can with specially sized shoot to keep non pet waste debris out
- Sturdy square post design
Complete Admiral™ Kit Contains:
- All kit items are individually boxed and then carefully packed in a single double walled extra durable cardboard box to ensure you receive a complete and undamaged station.
- Bag dispenser, 11 gallon vandal-resistant receptacle, sign, 8ft two piece square telescoping post, hardware and an installation instruction sheet.
Heavy Duty - Header bag dispensers have a heavy-duty, one piece spring that pushes bags to the front of the dispenser as they are used. The bag hangers are made from rugged 1/8” thick bolts for increased durability.
Vandal Resistant - Our receptacle chute opening was specially designed to allow pet waste bags in, while keeping most other trash out.
Rust Proof and Durable Finish - Receptacles, dispensers, signs, and hinges are all made from aluminum. All parts are powder coated (not painted). Taking the protection of your finished product to the next level, each pet waste station piece goes through a non-chrome seal rinse that adds to the corrosion resistance and creates better adhesion between the metal and the powder coating. This results in a clean finish and a longer lifespan for your station.
Smartly Designed - Dispenser roofs are sloped and sealed so that water runs off of the dispenser onto a drip edge to prevent your bags from getting wet. Any water that may enter the dispenser drains through special drainage holes at the bottom of the dispenser.
Accessible - Our specially designed roll bag dispensers were created with the end user in mind. Should your leading bag fall into the dispenser, you are easily able to retrieve it and resume use. This unique opening also leads to less wasted bags.
Sturdy - Our stations all come equipped with a two piece telescoping powder coated 8 ft square post. In our professional experience square posts are less likely to corrode than the industry standard u-channel post. In addition to providing additional support to your station, the square post also gives it a professional and polished look. | <urn:uuid:b0128321-8544-4d2c-9341-d897165a115c> | CC-MAIN-2020-05 | http://doodycallsdirect.com/pet-waste-stations/admiraltm-dog-waste-station.html | 2020-01-18T04:32:05Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-05/segments/1579250591763.20/warc/CC-MAIN-20200118023429-20200118051429-00552.warc.gz | en | 0.929788 | 473 |
The Global Impact of National and Regional Security Issues
8th International Student/Young Pugwash (ISYP) Conference
Istanbul, Turkey, 30-31 October 2013
On the occasion of the 60th Pugwash Conference on Science and World Af airs “Dialogue, Disarmament, and Regional and Global Security” International Student/Young Pugwash (ISYP) invites students and young scholars from around the world to participate in an international conference that will address, from a critical and interdisciplinary perspective, the relationship between national, regional and global security focusing on the global impact of national and regional security issues (for example exploring the impact of recent developments in the Middle East) on a broad range of topics.
ISYP exists to provide the young generation an opportunity to demonstrate that it is capable of thinking in a new way to find opportunities for cooperation to end continuous or renewed conflict. The 8th ISYP Conference seeks to provide a space for young international security professionals and scholars to engage in a dialogue and exchange ideas concerning national, regional, and global security and interact with the Nobel Peace Prize winning Pugwash Conferences on Science and World Affairs. The 8th ISYP Conference will gather participants from various disciplinary backgrounds that are developing and have acquired the expertise necessary to understand, analyze and influence national, regional and global security. The conference will address the following issues:
- Regional distrust with global impact
Turkey as a bridge between the Middle East and Europe. Iran’s role in regional and international security. The relationship between nuclear powers in South Asia. China, the United States, and the stability and security of the East Asia region.
- Nuclear energy and nonproliferation
The risks arising from the proliferation of dual-use nuclear technology. The future of nuclear energy after the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster.
- Nuclear arms control and disarmament
The arms control and disarmament agenda of the world’s nuclear powers and the role of non nuclear states. Nuclear weapons free zones and Turkey’s role as a leader in the Middle East.
- The clash of civil society and state security
The benefit and the extent and limits of social and civil society on security. Recent experiences in Iran, Egypt, Turkey and other states and regions. Pervasive surveillance, cyber security and the role of drones. | <urn:uuid:488e8a0c-151f-4009-a6c8-db1faeb1d2d8> | CC-MAIN-2020-29 | https://isyp.org/2013/11/01/2013-isyp-conference-istanbul/ | 2020-07-16T17:13:00Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-29/segments/1593657172545.84/warc/CC-MAIN-20200716153247-20200716183247-00449.warc.gz | en | 0.88614 | 469 |

This month I thought I’d create a blog different to those of the past. I have revisited the blogs I have written since November 2014 and looked again at the tools, techniques and resources that helped me write the stories I found in my family’s history. I hope very much these tools, techniques and resources help you with your family history…
My first blog was ‘We will remember them…’. It is fitting to take this as a starting point as my grand uncle Alfred lost his life this month, 101 years ago on the 26 August 1914.
The story I found
The story in the family, discovered in a box of family photos and documents was poignant:
Alf joined the army pre-war as a bandsman in the 2nd battalion of the Royal Inniskilling Fusiliers. He left Dover on 4th August 1914 as part of the 4th Division of the 12th Brigade. Killed in World War One [WWI] at 21 years old (battle of Le Cateau near Cambria on 26th August 1914), his death really shocked his brother John Edward Hatton and he used to visit his grave every year 1
Where to start?
I started with the 1911 Census, so close to the Great War it lists the vast majority of men and women participating. But it was my decision to look back from here another 10 years that produced a story the family had no knowledge of. I accessed the 1901 Census. I use two subscription websites (as I have found the indexing to be very different on both) and with thegenealogist.co.uk I soon tracked Alfred down, with his two brothers at the Central London District Schools, Hanwell 2. This is the workhouse school, where children were located away from the main workhouse. This discovery gave me a story that linked Alfred with his service in the Great War. Workhouse children generally learnt a trade or, for the musically minded, to play an instrument. It is likely Alfred took to music as he joined the Royal Inniskilling Fusiliers as a bandsman. Photographs of the Hanwell workhouse, and Central London Schools (plus workhouses across the UK) and details of their organisation and living conditions can be found on workhouses.org.uk.
The letter I found suggested Alfred was 21 when he lost his life. If we search for a death register entry on freebmd.org.uk we find no results. We have to access the Index to War Deaths 1914-1921 3. This index provides an official General Register Office (GRO) index reference, which we can use to order the relevant certificate (always use gro.gov.uk as the official and cheapest way of obtaining a copy birth, marriage or death certificate).
As an aside, why is the last date in the Index to War deaths 1921 and not 1918 – the end of the Great War as we know it? Perhaps this is linked to the same reason why some war memorials also feature the dates 1914-1921. On 25th August 1921 the United States of America signed a separate peace treaty with Germany; the Treaty of Berlin. Therefore the 1921 date is used as the end of the Great War.
Having obtained the death certificate from the General Register Office 4 and subtracting the date of death from Alfred’s date of birth 5 I confirmed Alfred was in fact 22 years of age when he died. I also noted he was recorded as ‘missing, presumed dead’. How did my grandfather John Edward Hatton visit his grave every year then?
Missing, presumed dead
A crucial source of information is the Commonwealth War Graves Commission (CWGC) 6. This organisation works tirelessly to honour the 1 million, 700 thousand commonwealth men and women who died in both world wars. Major work to restore the Great War (WWI) cemeteries has been continuing since before the centenary commemorations in 2014.
As well as locating Alfred’s grave, which confirmed that at some stage his body had been recovered (remember he was listed as ‘missing, presumed dead’ on his death certificate) further records on the CWGC website aided my understanding. These were released in August 2014. Although hard to read at times, the Exhumation and Grave 7 records reveal further information on your ancestors. Alfred Hatton is listed on these records:
– Date of exhumation: 15 September 1920
– Was a cross on the grave if so, give particulars and inscription if any: Yes. Two Englische Kreiger [English Soldier] 26 August 1914
– Effects found on the body: a visiting card found by a civilian in 1914.
This information may explain why Alfred’s medals weren’t claimed until 1922, perhaps after his body was found. This information was detailed on the back of his medal card 8. Remember with medal cards access the ancestry.co.uk website (if you don’t have a subscription and are a member of your local library, access ancestry.co.uk there). The back of the card (scanned by ancestry) may reveal further stories within your family.
I have been unable to trace the service records for Alf as they were probably destroyed with many others during a bombing raid on London in the Second World War. If the records do survive (the ‘burnt record set’) then you may be lucky to find a wealth of information. The service records include the following soldiers:
– Those discharged 1914-1920
– Those killed in action (kia) 1914-1920
– Those who served, but died of wounds/disease without being discharged to pension
– Those demobilised at the end of war
However bear in mind the following:
– If kia it is less likely there will be a file (most files were kept for pension details)
– A higher proportion of files survive for men who were transferred out to other units (unfit to fight at the front)
– The Honourable Artillery Company files seem to survive (on Findmypast.co.uk)
– Relatively few service records survive for men in Irish regiments
REMEMBER if you can’t locate the ‘burnt record set’ consult the ‘unburnt’ record set. These are files untouched or added to from other sources. They relate to the discharge of soldiers at end of service, on medical grounds or those that died after being awarded a pension. There are unlikely to be records for those who were kia if they did not claim a pension or have surviving dependants. Also those discharged from demobilisation sometimes didn’t claim a pension. But do check!
As with any research, revisit your records again. Revisit websites – many are continually adding new material. And revisit your storage files (electronic or paper). I checked my emails regarding Alfred and discovered a photograph scanned and emailed to me by another relative, that I had overlooked. I have added it here.
Having completed this research (for now) I do feel a bond with Alfred, and I have a better understanding of my Grandfather, John Edward (who I never knew). What stories might you find in your family’s history?

| Abstract|| |
Persistent apical periodontitis even after nonsurgical retreatment demands for a surgical approach. This requires a thorough diagnosis and planning to eliminate the pathology and induce healing. This is sometimes challenging when the pathology is present in close relationship to the vital structures. In such cases, modern, sophisticated technology such as three-dimensional (3D) printing can come very handy in patient education as well as for planning and mock-up preparation of the surgery. In this case, a nonhealing persistent apical periodontitis in relation to 16 was surgically treated. However, the pathology was in close association with the maxillary sinus hence fused deposition modeling-based 3D printed models were fabricated for patient education and to locate and determine the extent of the lesion. This was followed by the surgical enucleation of the lesion and apicectomy of mesiobuccal and distobuccal roots and mineral trioxide aggregate retro-filling and as the symptoms subsided after the follow-up full coverage metal crown was fabricated and cemented. This technology has opened a new horizon for the use of 3D printing in conjugation with endodontic principles for more predictable endodontic success.

| Introduction|| |
The principle objective of endodontic retreatment is to treat apical periodontitis caused by reinfection of the root canal system. However, apical periodontitis can still persist even after secondary root canal treatment. The reason for the failure can be attributed to various factors such as intricate anatomy, missed canals, and iatrogenic errors. Even the use of sophisticated armamentarium does not nullify the chances of failure; such cases may then require surgical intervention.,
The introduction of cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) specifically dedicated to imaging the maxillofacial region heralds a true paradigm shift from two-dimensional (2D) to three-dimensional (3D) approach to data acquisition and image reconstruction. Interest in CBCT from all fields of dentistry is unprecedented because it has created a revolution in maxillofacial imaging, facilitating the transition of dental diagnosis from 2D to 3D images, and expanding the role of imaging from diagnosis to image guidance of operative and surgical procedures. CBCT before endodontic surgery may allow the endodontist to identify accessory anatomy, untreated root canals, visualize the true extent of a periradicular lesion, and prevent damage to vital anatomical structures.,
3D scans using CT/CBCT imaging have not only been applied to the visualization of an object but also to the generation of a physical model. 3D-printing technology is used for making a physical model, also known as, rapid prototyping or additive manufacturing has provided new possibilities for the diagnosis, surgical planning, prosthesis design, and student education in medicine and dentistry. The technology is totally different from computer-aided design (CAD) to computer-aided manufacturing, and models can be made using stereolithography, fused deposition modeling (FDM), laminated object manufacturing, selective laser sintering, and direct metal laser sintering. In endodontic treatment, a physical tooth model fabricated by 3D printing has been used for patient education and also in various cases such as the diagnosis of atypical root morphology and deciding its management, guided access preparation for calcified canals, determination and locations of root resorption, and surgical planning, guided periapical surgeries, autotransplantation. Zehnder et al., Kfir et al., and Byun et al. also used CBCT and intraoral optical scans to produce 3D printed templates/models to gain guided access to root canals, management of anomalous teeth with atypical root morphology.
This case describes a surgical endodontic therapy, which takes advantage of 3D technology that is becoming increasingly accessible in dentistry.
| Case Report|| |
A 45 year old male patient with consent form reported to the department with a chief complaint of pus discharge in the upper right back tooth region for 1 year. The past dental history revealed a previously done endodontic treatment with 16. Clinical examination showed a draining sinus tract in the proximity of 16 [Figure 1]a. Gutta-percha (GP) tracing on radiograph showed area near the distobuccal root of 16 to be the cause of the infection with satisfactorily filled root [Figure 1]b. Tenderness on percussion was absent. Hence, the diagnosis formulated was previously treated 16 with chronic apical abscess (American Association of Endodontists 2013). Nonsurgical re-endodontic therapy with 16 was chosen as the first line of treatment. A multivisit re-endodontic therapy with GP removal followed by cleaning and shaping with rotary instrumentation (HyFlex CM) with copious irrigation of 3% sodium hypochlorite and saline with intermediate calcium hydroxide (RC Cal) dressing for 1 month was done and dressing was changed after every 7 days, and the healing of the symptoms were assessed. After the sinus tract healed and the canals were dry, obturation with GP (DiaDent) and resin sealer (AH Plus) with lateral compaction followed by a composite postendodontic restoration with 16 [Figure 1]c. However, the sinus reappeared after 2 months in the same region. Moreover, as the endodontic treatment had failed twice, a surgical approach was then planned. GP was removed again with the help of Protaper retreatment rotary files (Dentsply, USA), and CBCT was advised to rule out hidden pathology. However, the attempt was done for searching any missed canal with the help of radiograph (intraoral periapical radiography and CBCT) as well as dental operating microscope. CBCT was not showing any missed canal on its coronal sections. After confirming, calcium hydroxide dressing was given again until the surgery was done.

On CBCT evaluation, a periapical radiolucency was revealed extending from the mesial border of 16 to the mesial border of 18 [Figure 1]d, [Figure 1]e, [Figure 1]f. The lesion was in close proximity to the maxillary sinus lining with an indistinct separation between the two. Hence, it was a challenge for the operator to ascertain the extent of the lesion and conclude whether the lesion encroached the sinus lining or not. This dilemma and limited information on the surgical procedure and the expected outcome made it difficult for the patient to accept the surgical treatment when the same was explained to him. The above circumstances made us opt for 3D printed models. These models (full model, cross section, and pathology) of the concerned region were helpful for the operator to determine the exact location, extent, and relation of the pathology to the maxillary sinus. From surgical point of view, since the maxillary posterior region presents its own difficulties, the models helped in decision-making regarding the bony window size. These models proved to be a boon as a definitive and predictable treatment plan could be formulated, and it served as a handy patient education tool. The patient could understand the need of surgery and expected outcomes of the same. Hence, it helped both the operator and the patient in multiple dimensions [Figure 1]g, [Figure 1]h, [Figure 1]i. 3D models exposed the presence of a pathology that was distinct from the maxillary sinus and was 2 cm × 2.5 cm in dimension [Figure 1]i. After obtaining the patient's consent and the preliminary investigations, surgical enucleation was planned. However, before surgery, calcium hydroxide was washed away from the canal with the help of sodium hypochlorite and saline, and the canals were dried using absorbent paper points. This was followed by obturation of the canal by GP (DiaDent) and resin sealer (AH Plus) with lateral compaction and postendodontic restoration using composite resin. The pathology was then enucleated by reflecting a full-thickness envelope flap extending from distal border of 14 to distal border of 17 under administration of infiltration local anesthesia (lidocaine with 1:80000 epinephrine) [Figure 2]a and [Figure 2]b, and the mesiobuccal and distobuccal roots were resected at 2 mm. After that 3 mm of root-end cavity preparation with ultrasonic posterior retro tip, each followed by retrofilling with mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) was done [Figure 2]c. Cavity was then irrigated with betadine and saline protecting the MTA with the help of a gauze piece after which the flap was repositioned and sutured using 3-0 silk suture by intermittent suturing technique [Figure 2]d. Postoperative antibiotic regimen was prescribed, and sinus protocol was advised. The patient was also advised to maintain the oral hygiene and a regular dental checkup. The histopathological analysis of the excised pathology confirmed the diagnosis of a radicular cyst. The patient was then recalled after 1 week for suture removal and follow-up that showed a healed sinus tract. 1, 2, and 3 months of follow-up showed no recurrence of any signs or symptoms. Hence, a full coverage metal crown was fabricated and cemented with 16 [Figure 2]f and [Figure 2]g.

| Discussion|| |
Persistent apical periodontitis is preferably treated by root canal retreatment. However, posttreatment failure can still occur when treatment has been performed to a good standard. The infected site (s) may not be accessible by conventional therapy and therefore may require surgical intervention. This case presented a surgical dilemma that made it challenging to operate due to its location and proximity to the maxillary sinus, and it became mandatory to clear the understanding of the pathology present. CBCT scans helped in locating and determining the extent of the pathology. However, due to the closeness of the maxillary sinus and the consequences of the same, the patient was not convinced for the surgical treatment.
CBCT has increased accuracy, higher resolution, and reduced scan time. CBCT eliminates superimposition of surrounding structures. It has a rapid scan time as compared with panoramic radiography and gives complete 3D reconstruction and display from any angle. CBCT is accurate and reliable in detecting apical periodontitis, vertical root fracture, and resorptive defects and gives a better view of root and pulp canal anatomy when compared to radiography. The accuracy of CBCT was 86% compared to 66% for periapical radiographs. Even though CBCT helped in accurate diagnosis and in treatment planning, the experienced operator will face a problem when he/she is treating unusual/difficult cases.
Actually, 3D printed models are a replica of actual anatomy of the tooth which we get from CBCT. CBCT images are sent to 3D-printing laboratory in the form of DICOM files. In the laboratory, they are converted into Standard Tessellation Language (STL) format. STL images are represented in the form of Facets (collection of triangles) such as the CBCT images in the form of voxels. With the help of software after taking soft-tissue details, it is sent for the 3D printer for preparation of model. Model derived can be used as mock-up model, for patient education or for student's education or as a guide. Operators can perform the procedure on the model, and the same approach will be applied for the patient. In this case, the FDM technology 3D-printed model of different sections of the pathology was fabricated that alone gave an exact idea about the dimensions and position of the lesion in relation to sinus and was also helped in educating and convincing for the patient to go for the surgical treatment without any fear of entering the sinus. After enucleation, even the size of the excised lesion was almost similar to that of the 3D-printed model of the lesion , [Figure 2]e. This also approves of the accuracy of the 3D-printing technology as they have shown to have a discrepancy of < 0.1 mm. As the models were fabricated for the education and diagnosis purpose, FDM technology was used.
In the todays era of digital dentistry, intraoral and CBCT scanners are becoming more mainstream, and dental professionals are becoming well acquainted and adapt at working with large volumes of digital data. Hence, developments and access to scanner technology and CAD software have made this technology easier to use.
Enucleation was chosen as the treatment of choice due to good healing with primary closure of the wound and thorough evaluation of the cystic lining. Two millimeter of root resection followed by 3 mm of root-end cavity preparation with posterior retro tip was done. Edge of resection is flat (0°) since it minimizes apical leakage. MTA was used for retrofilling because of its biocompatibility and chemical bonding with the tooth and also bioactive potential. It shows the formation of calcium-phosphate precipitation at the interface. This interface layer reduces the risk of marginal percolation and gives promising long-term clinical success. Hence, 3-month follow-up after the use of a combination of novel 3D-printing technology and endodontic principles gave very satisfactory and promising results.
| Conclusion|| |
CBCT is a diagnostic tool that may allow for the management of teeth with complex anatomy. 3D-printed models may be a valuable aid in the process of assessing and planning effective treatment modalities and practicing them ex vivo before actually performing the clinical procedure. Unconventional technological approaches may be required for detailed treatment planning of complex cases. The use of 3D printing in diagnosis, treatment of unusual and complex anatomy, surgical planning, patient education, and as mock-up models are the various applications that can help us achieve accurate and more predictable success in endodontics.

The Czech Helsinki Committee:
The Czech authorities illegally detain the refugees
27. 9. 2015
Individuals who have not committed any crimes are being detained in prison-like conditions. Their cash and their mobile phones are illegally confiscated. It follows from numerous testimonies that they are being subjected to degrading treatment by the staff of the detention centres. In some cases, the Czech courts have decreed that the detention of refugees is illegal. The behaviour of the Czech authorities is in conflict with human dignity, which is protected by Czech law, says the Czech Helsinki Committee in its press release and continues:
During the recent meeting of the Council of Europe, Milan Chovanec, the Czech Home Secretary, gave support to the unacceptable behaviour of the Hungarian government which is under serious suspicion that it infringes basic rights and freedoms. The Czech government and the Czech opposition parties refuse to accept the jointly agreed numbers of immigrants. During the times when the Nazi and the communist dictatorships controlled the territory of the Czech Republic, the European countries provided refuge and protection for tens of thousands of the then Czechoslovak citizens. Today, we should show solidarity and help the European countries to take care of people seeking refuge.
The Czech authorities tolerate extremist statements by individuals who have threatened activists working for people in need with death. The "National Democracy - No to Brussels Party" has demanded that human rights organisations should be closed down and that publicly active citizens should be investigated for high treason, yet the Czech authorities and the Czech judiciary do not act. The parliamentary party "Dawn - Nationl Coalition" also publishes xenophobic statements and widely supports xenophobia.
Public service media, in particular Czech Television, have systematically failed to act against the rise of xenophobic moods in the Czech population.
We appreciate extensive help, given to refugees on the territory of the Czech Republic by individual volunteers and by civic organisations.
The current behaviour of the Czech authorities damages the good name of the Czech Republic. It is inhumane and it is in conflict with the Czech constitution. The Czech Helsinki Committee rejects such behavior and demands that the Czech authorities change their ways.

Corfu, or Kerkyra in Greek, is named after the Nymph Korkira, the daughter of the River God, Aesopos. According to a myth, Poseidon, God of the Sea, fell in love with Nymph Korkira, and brought her on this island. Archaeological excavations have proved that Corfu has been inhabited since the Paleolithic Era.
According to myth, Corfu was the island of the Phaeacians, where Odysseus landed on his return trip to Ithaca and met beautiful Nausicaa and he father king Alkinoos. In the ancient times, Corfu was a very important commercial centre. There was trading with all the towns of the Adriatic Sea, making Corfu a strong naval power and an important colonial town, known today as Paleopolis. The ruins of this ancient town are found right opposite the Mon Repos Palace in Corfu Town.

Under the plan, Vi will clear its outstanding dues to the infrastructure firm by converting its debt to equity if the amount remains unpaid in 18 months. The company’s shareholders approved the programme that will see the issue of up to 16,000 optionally convertible debentures (OCDs) with a face value of INR1 million apiece, each of which may be converted to 100,000 fully paid-up shares in Vi at a conversion price of INR10.
As previously reported by TeleGeography’s CommsUpdate, Vi has also agreed to convert regulatory dues totalling around INR161 billion into a government stake of roughly 33%, but the conversion process has been delayed due to the operator’s low stock price. Meanwhile, the company is facing mounting pressure to clear dues with other infrastructure and vendor partners before it can begin to deploy 5G technology. | <urn:uuid:367631eb-0899-46ef-8eaa-f781b9679a6e> | CC-MAIN-2023-06 | https://www.commsupdate.com/articles/2022/11/23/vi-shareholders-greenlight-atc-share-issue-plan/ | 2023-01-30T02:17:26Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2023-06/segments/1674764499790.41/warc/CC-MAIN-20230130003215-20230130033215-00409.warc.gz | en | 0.908169 | 230 |

It looks like China's App Store market is continuing to boom. In fact, for this year's first fiscal quarter (ending in March), revenues from China's App Store surpassed sales in Japan's for the first time ever. At this rate, it shouldn't be long until China's App Store becomes even bigger than the United States'.
The data comes from App Annie (via AppleInsider), which explains that China's booming App Store's growth has accelerated by around 2.2 times between Q1 and Q2 2015, and is continuing to rocket. Much of China's App Store growth is centered on in-app purchases (IAPs), which are popular among a number of the country's most-popular iOS titles. It seems China really has moved towards a “freemium” model, where games are free to download but riddled with IAPs. This is resulting in huge revenue from the country's App Store.
Indeed, revenue from China's App Store overtook Japan's revenue for Q1 2016, and it's the first time this has happened, ever. This is something of a miletone for China's iOS app economy, which has indeed been continuing to grow since its launch.
At this rate, revenue from the Chinese App Store is even on track to overtake revenue from the U.S. App Store. And this is a staggering thought. For now, there's still a big(ish) difference between the two markets: some 30 percent separates China from the United States. But despite this, as AppleInsider notes, “the country could assume the top spot as soon as this year, however, or possibly in 2017.” | <urn:uuid:caa26378-903a-4bc1-a513-aa2041c5f6b1> | CC-MAIN-2017-43 | https://appadvice.com/post/chinas-ios-app-store-overtakes-japans-and-is-continuing-to-rocket/711133 | 2017-10-17T17:15:27Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2017-43/segments/1508187822145.14/warc/CC-MAIN-20171017163022-20171017183022-00553.warc.gz | en | 0.978124 | 341 |

In the first months of 18(10 times were
tough on the CoiiHtock. The winter of
lS.V,)-lji) was terribly severe-, as all old
settlers well remember. Supplies could
not bebrouxhtover the mountains from
California, and before spring many on
the Cotustock went huturryto bed about
three nights in the week. That winter
n jolly crowd niadii their headquarters
in a cabin that stood on the hillside,
above the Ophir office, near the Cali
fornia shaft. The cabin was a sort of
cave-. In entering it ono went down
two steps. Tiio roof was composed of
a layer of brush, a stratum of dirt, and
over this a canvas cover to hold it all
in place. The cabin contained four
bunks, two on the South and two on
tho north side. John Maokey had tho
bunk on tho north side, and Alexander
Kennedy slept in tho upper one. Pat
S. Corbett at present United States
Marshal Corbett and Jack O'Brien
occupied tho south bunks.
At that timo Mackey, Kennedy and
others wero running the old Union Tun
nel, and wero working every day.
AS TIMES liKLW IKH'iiH
aud grub scarce, the number of lodgers
in tho cabin increased. Jack McCaU'ery
was taken in on tho understanding that
ho was to furnish wood for tho house
hold, and Johnnie Walker in considera
tion of his doing all the cooking. Tho
newcomers brought their blankets and
slept on the floor. Virginia City was
then a town of brush shanties and can
vas tents, and it was good to find
shelter anywhere. Lumber being $3W

As the winter wore away provisions of
all kinds became- scarce, and famine)
prices ruled for a time early in tho
spring. For a few clays a square meal
"down town" cost $2. Those of tho
boys in tho cabin who started in with a
littbi money had either got to tho end
of their string in keeping up their part
of tho expensea or had gambled off their
Jack McCaU'ery, who was to furnish
wood, began to makn night raids on
tiio wooil piles of tho neighbors in
order to keep up his part of the cabin
supplies, and, the weather being cold,
ho was sometimes prow ling about half

was his chief dependence. One stormy
night Jack was gone so long that his
cabin mates grew uneasy about him.
Johnny Walker, the cook, said Jack
had vhipered in his ear as ho left
that ho was going to the Ophir wood
pile. A search party was sent out, and
to their inquiring wiii-qiers they finally
got a faint reply. Following up tho
sound, they presently cumo upon poor
Jack. Blinded by tho driving snow,
he and a lig stick from the Opliir had
tumbled together into a prospect shaft.
With tho stick of wood on end and
standing on top of it, Jack's extended
hand still failed to reach the top of
tiio shaft by about two feet. Ho was
hauled out, bruised and nearly frozen.
Next morning there was no wood with
which to cook breakfast, but as thcro
w as not much to cook, a board or two
from tho bunks furnished sullicicnt

"I was just thinking," said Captain
R. J. Linden, superintendent of Pink
erlon's Detective Agency, "of the
wonderful will powerand uutirin? per
severance of Allen Pinkcrton. Verv
few persons, unless they wero inti
mately associated with him, would bo
lievo that nny person could possess
such a patient" persistence, which sur
mounted obstacles that to ordinary
men would appear liko impassable?
mountains. Major Pinkcrton was a
man with a big heart. I don't think
ho know how to do a mean thin;. He
was one of those honorable, fair-minded
mon, who, whilo giving everybody
their due, exacted the sumo for himself.
In matters of business ho insisted on
getting every penny that belonged to
him, and once ho made a promise it
was lived up to if it cost him every
penny ho owned in tho world. His
likes and dislikes wero intense. If ho
became your friend
NO AMOUNT OF CALUtfNT -
on the part of your enemy could
change his opinion; but if ho disliked
you, neither arguments nor entreaties,
could shake him an iota.
"Major Pinkerton's perscveranco anil
ingenuity wero tho secrets of his suc
cess in all his undertakings. If ho
could not accomplish his purposo by
one plan ho immediately resorted to
another, lus mind was wonderfully
fertile in expedients, and it was a raro
thing for him to fail when ho had onco
set his mind upon success. You can.
form some idea of his ready tact and
capacity for planning in tho caso of tho
colored murderer Johnson, of South
Carolina, who killed an enemy tinder
the most brutal circumstances. Major
Pinkcrton was pretty positive as to tho
man's guilt, but it was impossible to
obtain a complete chain of evidence.
With tho natural seeretiveness of his
race, Johnson refused to tail into any
of the man-traps laid for him and
mako a confession, which was Pinker
ton's object. After weeks of patient
but abortive work, a novel plan was
hit upon. Tho murderer was surprised
ono morning when ho went to tako a
plow into a field to find it spattered
with blood. In tho open held where
ho was to work tho murderer found
LITTLE POOLS OF l'.LOOD
along tho coursohc was to plow. When
ho went back to tho stable ho was '
startled by seeing the bloody imprint of
a human hand on the stable door.
Every hoe, or rake, or other farm im
plement that tho man picked up had
blood on it. When nightfall came tho
murderer was so paralyzed with fear
that his teeth wero chattering and ho
was afraid to go to bed. Ho believed
that tho spirit of his victim was haunt
ing him. The detective and his assist
ant noted these symptoms, and wero
confident that tho right plan had been
struck tit last. It had been after a
fashion, and thero was a horriblo proof
given the next day. Johnson was
found in tho barn with his throat cut
from ear to car. He had killod himself
rather than cndtiro the tortures of a
guilty conscience. I need not explain
that the blood marks which frightened
tho murderer's guilty soul wero tho
work of the detectives aud not of
"it was in that kind of detectivo
work that Major Pinkcrton excelled.
He could change his tactics so that tho
man or men ho was seeking would be
led into a trap when they really
thought they wero getting out of one.
There- are scores and scores of such in
stances, but the) have all been pub
lished from time to timo as they oc
curred, nnd I do nut suppose would
interest you. It was one of Major
Pinkerton's rules to conceal nothing
from the public of public interest, after
tlie work was done, and it was another
inflexible rule to tell the public nothing
before the job was finished or whilo it
was in progress. From this ho never
departed, and his sons, William and
Robert, who nro their father's success
ors, wili adhere to it as rigidly as tho
founder of the tigenev did." I'hiladd-

The left sido of the faco is the right;
statistics prove the paradox. Artists
idways put tho best touches, finest
shading, and most delicate tints on the
left side of the profile. Actors, act
resses, and public singers always mako
a half turn to the right when they wish
to impress their audiences. Young
ladies desirous of bewitching their
gentlemen friends always walk on tho
right hand side. Why? Because
science has shown that tho left sido of
the face is the more beautiful, or loss
ugly. The left hand is more magnetic
than the right, the left breast has a
more graceful contour than the oppo
site, and the glance of tho left cyo has a
hew itching power of which tho riht is
hopelessly innocent. Tho themo will
bear infinite expansion, but wo forbear
to pursue it. Tho remarkable part of
the now well-known fact is that tho

Looks: A scaled down version of the new Innovator X driver, because, says Benross, research tells us that by maintaining a similar look and shape throughout the Fairbrid family of clubs, golfers gain confidence and ultimately increased performance.
Feel/performance: I quickly adapted to the Fairbrid. It gave me confidence as I addressed the ball and didn't let me down during the round when I used it. Even off tight lies it sent the ball soaring on a high, floating trajectory to land softly and quickly. From the rough it was equally adaptable. The feel was more forgiving than a normal hybrid though less easy to shape shots than a fairway metal. however, this could be down to today's modern ball which is designed to fly straighter. | <urn:uuid:d669c5f7-441f-427b-a455-01746deb029e> | CC-MAIN-2022-27 | https://www.golfmagic.com/reviews/equipment/hybrids/benross-innovator-x-fairbrid/12061 | 2022-06-26T05:56:22Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-27/segments/1656103037089.4/warc/CC-MAIN-20220626040948-20220626070948-00240.warc.gz | en | 0.97294 | 209 |
The St. Bernard Coalition for Project Graduation is preparing for the 21st annual after graduation party for Chalmette High School on May 15. Currently, a run fund-raiser is being planned, and volunteers and sponsorships are especially needed.
The coalition will sponsor its first 5K walk-run, "Race to Keep Our Graduates Safe" on March 9, beginning at 9 a.m., at Sidney Torres Park in Chalmette. Awards for top finishers, gift basket raffles and a 50/50 raffle will be featured.
The early registration fee is $20 for teens through adults. Registration the day of the event is $25 for teens through adults. Children 12 and under are free. For information on the race, contact Paula St. Angelo at 504.400.9298 or firstname.lastname@example.org
Sponsorships and volunteers are needed for the race as well as the after graduation party.
Graduation is an all night alcohol and drug free party designed to give Chalmette High
graduates a safe alternative to celebrate their special night, said St. Angelo, who is spearheading the event.
The St. Bernard Coalition for Project Graduation will put on the all night party immediately after graduation. Buffet food, a disc jockey, games, a photo booth, and many prizes will be featured.
"Not only does it keep them safe since it is a drug and alcohol free event," St. Angelo said, "it will be the last night they truly get to act like a "kid" with the majority of their classmates. They get to dance, play games all night, receive free food and beverages, and at the end of the night, they have the opportunity to win prizes."
"Project Graduation has been going strong for over 20 years," St. Angelo said "Last year the class of 2013 brought the largest number of students into Project Graduation, approximately 240. We were very excited to see more than 50 percent of the class participate. On the flip side, we had fewer volunteers, which made it a bit difficult for us to keep all the games open and ready for the students to play."
"As a volunteer, the smiles on their faces and the laughter we share are what make all the hard work and dedication worth it," she said.
Volunteers are needed to plan and work the event. Volunteers are needed for ticket sales, publicity/promotion, set up, decorations, running games and other activities,
soliciting prizes, organization of prizes, arranging security, cleanup, food serving, and other tasks.
"We need our local community and parental support of this project for us to succeed," Simpson said. "Volunteers with all levels of experience are needed, not only for the day of the event, but the days and months prior, helping with various aspects of Project Graduation."
Meetings are held on the first Tuesday of each month at 7 p.m. in the Chalmette High home economics classroom. Residents interested in helping are encouraged to attend. | <urn:uuid:1bec88ed-86d6-44b9-ace2-6586f8e0c1e6> | CC-MAIN-2014-15 | http://blog.nola.com/stbernard/2014/02/st_bernard_project_graduation.html | 2014-04-17T00:56:30Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2014-15/segments/1397609526102.3/warc/CC-MAIN-20140416005206-00442-ip-10-147-4-33.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.964 | 629 |
A couple of rumours were floating around the speculative Internet this week, rumours we shared with you here. The first was the speculation that Simon Pegg was hinting at the possibility of playing Ant-Man in his buddy Edgar Wright’s Marvel film.
The idea was spurred on by an image Pegg posted on Twitter where he was outside the Marvel studios, and like Vin Diesel a few weeks earlier, posed next to an image of a Marvel character, only this time Pegg was pointing at Ant-Man. That point was obviously a clear indication he was about to star in Wright’s Ant-Man film, and couldn’t possibly be a simple gesture of excitement about his pals new film!
Anyway, Wright himself has cleared up the matter on Twitter saying: “No, Simon Pegg is not Ant-Man,”
Realising he may have caused a bit of an Internet meltdown, Pegg too felt the need to make things clear: “All I did was point at the central character in my friend’s next movie, because I’m excited for him. I am not Ant-Man.”
Another rumour which landed this week was that Hugh Jackman was going to be offered $100 million to appear in a further four X-Men films as Wolverine. These rumours have also been denied by Jackman himself.
He told EW on the set of X-Men: Days of Future Past: “No it’s not true,I would never do that. I’ve never done that mainly because, for the fans and for me, each time I’ve gone around there’s been a really good reason to do it and I don’t know what that reason is from here. I’m in the middle of making this and I just promoted the other and I’m really happy with the way The Wolverine came out.” | <urn:uuid:26482e87-3276-4474-bbbe-59a34a74e89a> | CC-MAIN-2020-05 | https://horrorcultfilms.co.uk/2013/08/rumours-quashed-simon-pegg-is-not-ant-man-and-hugh-jackman-not-offered-100-million-for-wolverine-return/ | 2020-01-26T12:32:06Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-05/segments/1579251688806.91/warc/CC-MAIN-20200126104828-20200126134828-00234.warc.gz | en | 0.982751 | 398 |

The destroyed primary school set to become the symbol of Tasmania's devastating bushfires will be rebuilt, the state government says.
Tasmania's Green education minister Nick McKim has pledged to rebuild the Dunalley school, although Prime Minister Julia Gillard stopped short of guaranteeing that would happen when she visited the site on Monday.
The school was one of around 100 buildings to have burned down across the state since Friday.
Its mangled shell was one of four locations in the town visited by Ms Gillard.
Mr McKim said the state government was committed to rebuilding the school.
"I want to reassure the Dunalley community that we will work closely with them to ensure the new school meets their needs," he said in a statement.
Asked if she could guarantee that would happen Ms Gillard, flanked by Tasmanian Labor premier Lara Giddings, was less forthright.
"There'll be a big process of work with local communities to see what people want to do next," Ms Gillard said.
"We've seen in Victoria and in other places ... that the best way is to get communities together and to work through how people want to see their community for the future.
"I'm not going to pretend standing here as prime minister, when I don't live here, that I can pre-judge that for this community."
The Tasmanian government has controversially flagged the closure of 20 schools around the state, but Dunalley is not on that list.
The prime minister was met by a grade three student from the school, Billee Hassett, and her mother Sharee Mills while touring the site.
Ms Mills said her nine-year-old daughter had been traumatised after they had been separated when her mother returned to Dunalley.
"I got a phone call from a friend where Billee was staying this morning saying she'd stopped eating and she was fretting for me and couldn't stop crying," Ms Mills said.
"(The police) said there was no way they were going to allow (her in) by car so I organised friends to pick her up ... and they brought her in by boat."
The family's was a good news story though.
"I was told at midnight that I'd lost my house," Ms Mills said.
"I live next door to the bakery and the bakery had exploded.
"I informed the children that we didn't have a home to go back to."
Ms Mills made it back to find her house, amazingly, intact.
"(It's) just luck," she said.
"(The bakery's) totally wiped out." | <urn:uuid:310b195f-7966-4348-9885-f17932fef152> | CC-MAIN-2013-20 | http://www.news.net/article/92080/Top%20Stories | 2013-05-24T01:16:54Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2013-20/segments/1368704131463/warc/CC-MAIN-20130516113531-00099-ip-10-60-113-184.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.991312 | 540 |
OK, a final few bits to do before my friend Ollie and I were going to push-off and head to the VW show in Ninove in Belgium. I had managed to get most things on my ‘to do list’ done, but as it was going to be a fair old drive, I was keen to make the most of my newly installed leisure battery, and get a few bits of audio kit installed into the camper so I had some music to listen to on the journey
I had some old skool Rockford Fosgate and Alpine components that I had used over the years, and some bits that I had been saving for when I had a camper on the road again, so I was keen to get some kind of system put together for the trip, plus maybe a few mix CD’s to keep things rocking on the journey! I managed to get a working system installed in the end, although some elements are installed in a temporary manner and location initially, but hey, I now have music for the journey!
As always, a bit of a mad rush to get everything sorted, but finally I managed to get everything sorted and packed, ready to head off for an overnight stop near the Folkestone Euro Tunnel, this way it would make the 6am booking a bit easier to make! So time to fill the tanks and do the 45 mile first stage of the journey to our overnight stop near Folkestone…
I had done some previous research and found a great old pub just near the Euro Tunnel terminal that had facilities for camping, or just for a simple overnight stay for those catching early trains or ferries. So we had booked a stay and a meal there as it had a unisex shower and toilet room separate from the pub which were available 24/7. It also provides 7 electric hook-ups, 14 touring pitches plus tents pitches in the summer. The site is mainly designed for people looking for a stop over before or after going across the Channel as the tunnel is only 5 minutes away (perfect for us!) and the Dover ferries 20 minutes away if you were towing a caravan.
We had a great welcome, nice food and some great local beer, so the trip had already got off to a perfect start! Highly recommended!
Next time I head off to Europe via the Chunnel, I will definitely be staying there again!
The Drum Inn, Stone Street, Stanford North, Ashford, Kent, TN25 6DN
Now all we need to do is get up on time in the morning, start the campers and head to the Chunnel, Ninove, Belgium, here we come! | <urn:uuid:5ca41762-ae3e-4e72-a77b-4e6173ff5f91> | CC-MAIN-2021-04 | https://www.vdubxs.com/no-sleep-till-ninove-and-maybe-not-that-much-more-on-arrival/ | 2021-01-20T09:12:21Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-04/segments/1610703519984.9/warc/CC-MAIN-20210120085204-20210120115204-00552.warc.gz | en | 0.981169 | 541 |

It’s time for TIF reform in New York State. TIF stands for “tax increment financing,” a community development vehicle that is widely used in states other than New York. While we’re one of the 49 states with a TIF law, ours is hardly ever used.
But most of you still don’t know how this works. The idea behind a TIF makes a lot of sense. Let’s take Midtown Plaza as an example. Here’s a prime piece of real estate in the middle of Rochester that is just waiting to be developed. Oh, there’s an asbestos-laden, largely empty, decaying shell in the way? Well, in the tradition of economists everywhere, let’s just assume that the building is gone. THEN we’ll have a nicely located, developable parcel. And that parcel, being developed, will generate tax revenue. And the land around it will generate more tax revenue, as it no longer sits next to a nearly-empty eyesore.
ASSUMING we could get rid of the building.
Here’s how a TIF district would solve the problem: The City of Rochester declares the Midtown parcel plus the adjacent blocks as a tax increment financing district. Rochester then issues bonds to address the problem (taking down the building, in this instance). The bonds are paid back not from general tax revenue but from the increase in property tax revenue earned from properties within the district. The bonds don’t affect the city’s bond rating as they aren’t backed by the “full faith and credit” of the city but, instead, the dedicated increase in tax revenue within the district.
There is a discipline about a TIF district that is appealing. The ability of the municipality to sell the bonds depends on the private market’s assessment of the wisdom of the project. Suppose it costs $65 million to take down Midtown. The bonds will be impossible to sell if potential buyers estimate that the increase in tax revenue will be insufficient to pay debt service on the bonds. Like conventional private market financing deals, there is a direct connection between the project and the payback.
The reason that New York’s law is rarely used is that it excludes school districts. As schools are typically responsible for the largest share of the property tax, the increase in property tax revenue from a development—the tax increment—is too small to pay back the bonds for any substantial project. So hardly any New Yorkers use TIF financing.
Assemblyman Robin Schimminger and Senator Catherine Young have sponsored a bill that would address this problem. While I don’t necessarily support the specific language in this bill, their goal is to add school districts to the TIF legislation and make other changes to the legislation to enable communities and developers to take advantage of this flexible, popular financing vehicle.
TIF districts are not universally applauded. There are problems with TIF that should be avoided by whatever legislation gets considered in New York.
First, let’s consider the effect of inflation on the “base” level of property taxation. Remember that the tax increment—the additional tax revenue—is dedicated to TIF debt service. Local governments (including school districts) continue to collect property tax revenue from TIF district property according to the value of property before the TIF-financed improvement. If this base value is fixed in nominal terms—without considering inflation—then these governments are disadvantaged relative to the TIF bond holders.
Suppose the value of property in a TIF district were $1 million when the district is created in 2007. Without an adjustment clause it would still be assessed at $1 million in 2027, the last payback year of a 20 year bond. The Federal Reserve may have tamed inflation, but it hasn’t killed it—it is a sure bet that $1 million won’t buy as much in 2027 as it buys today. The TIF district will be collecting both the increase in value due to the investment AND the increase in value due to inflation. A study recently completed in Chicago—a heavy user of TIF financing—illustrates the problem. Between 1986 and 2005, Chicago’s TIF districts received about $4.5 billion in revenue. Had the base been adjusted to inflation (as occurs in Massachusetts and California, for example), the TIF districts would have received $3.8 billion and local governments would have received $700 million.
Second, there is a temptation to change the TIF law to allow the dedication of additional revenues—not simply the incremental property taxes—to service the debt. This has the effect of shifting the risk from the bond holders to general taxpayers. The beauty of TIF is the disciplined connection between the initial investment and the investment outcome, a level of accountability that can be lacking in economic development incentive programs.
Those caveats aside, a reformed TIF law, particularly one targeted at urban redevelopment and brownfield remediation, can harness a new source of financing to the task of redevelopment our cities. They need the boost. | <urn:uuid:7f685884-3286-4cc8-82de-d690229ac3fd> | CC-MAIN-2018-17 | http://blog.cgr.org/kent-gardner/adopt-tif-reform-in-new-york-state/ | 2018-04-21T22:58:19Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-17/segments/1524125945459.17/warc/CC-MAIN-20180421223015-20180422003015-00413.warc.gz | en | 0.945652 | 1,053 |
How to Remove Carpet Stains 101: Essential Tips and Tricks for DIY Enthusiasts
Are you tired of dull and dirty carpets but hesitant to spend money on professional cleaning services? Look no further! In this comprehensive guide, we will delve into the world of DIY carpet cleaning. From essential tips and tricks to effective homemade solutions, we’ll help you keep your carpets looking and feeling fresh without breaking the bank. So, roll up your sleeves and get ready to learn the secrets of how to remove carpet stains!
1. The Importance of Regular Carpet Cleaning
Before we dive into the nitty-gritty of DIY carpet cleaning, let’s understand why it’s essential to maintain clean carpets in the first place. Carpets are an integral part of our homes, providing comfort, insulation, and aesthetic appeal. However, they also trap dirt, dust, allergens, and even pet dander. Regular cleaning not only enhances the appearance of your carpets but also improves indoor air quality and prolongs their lifespan. When in doubt always contact your carpet cleaning professional if the job is too much to do yourself.
2. Preparing for Carpet Cleaning
To achieve the best results, proper preparation is key. Here’s what you need to do before you start your DIY carpet cleaning project:
a. Clear the Area: Remove any furniture, toys, or other objects from the carpeted area you intend to clean. This will allow you to access the entire surface and prevent any damage to your belongings.
b. Vacuum Thoroughly: Use a high-quality vacuum cleaner to remove loose dirt, debris, and pet hair from the carpet. This step is crucial as it ensures that your cleaning solution can penetrate deeper into the fibers.
3. Homemade Carpet Cleaning Solution
One of the advantages of DIY carpet cleaning is the ability to use homemade solutions that are cost-effective and eco-friendly. If you want to know how to remove stains from carpet, here are some tried-and-tested recipes:
a. Vinegar and Water Solution: Mix equal parts of white vinegar and water in a spray bottle. Spray the solution onto the carpet and let it sit for a few minutes. Then, blot the area with a clean cloth or sponge. Vinegar helps remove stains, odors, and bacteria, leaving your carpets fresh and clean.
b. Baking Soda and Essential Oils: Sprinkle baking soda liberally over the carpeted area and let it sit for a few hours or overnight. Baking soda acts as a natural deodorizer and absorbs odors. For a fresh scent, add a few drops of your favorite essential oil to the baking soda before sprinkling.
4. Spot Cleaning Techniques
Accidents happen, and when spills or stains occur, it’s essential to act quickly. Here are some spot cleaning techniques for common carpet stains:
a. Coffee or Wine Stains: Blot the stained area with a clean cloth or paper towel to absorb as much liquid as possible. Mix a teaspoon of dishwashing liquid with a cup of lukewarm water. Apply the solution to the stain using a sponge or cloth, and gently blot until the stain disappears.
b. Pet Stains: Mix a quarter cup of white vinegar, a quarter cup of mild dish soap, and two cups of warm water. Apply the solution to the stained area and gently scrub with a soft brush. Blot with a clean cloth until the stain is gone.
c. Rub Spots out using CIRCLES! Blotting is ideal compared to rubbing side to side, but to really understand how to remove carpet stains to right way simply follow along below. Rubbing out spots side to side actually bends the fibers and pushes the spots down further. For extra scrubbing power without pushing the spot down deeper rub in circles. The idea is to draw the spot out of the carpet. Start by rubbing in circle motions clockwise then counter clockwise. The lays the fibers down on the side and draws the stain out. Circles in one direction, then circles in the opposite direction assures that you will get all sides of the fiber. NEVER rub side to side!
5. Carpet Maintenance Tips
To keep your carpets looking their best for years to come, follow these maintenance tips:
a. Regular Vacuuming: Vacuum your carpets at least once a week to remove dirt, dust, and allergens. Pay extra attention to high-traffic areas and pet-prone spots.
b. Use Doormats: Place doormats at the entrances to your home to reduce the amount of dirt and debris that enters. This simple step can significantly minimize the need for frequent carpet cleaning.
c. Professional Cleaning: While DIY carpet cleaning is effective for routine maintenance and thorough professional carpet cleaning is always the best and safest option.
6. How to remove carpet stains: Kool-Aid
Carpets add warmth and elegance to our homes, but accidents happen, and spills are an unfortunate reality. One of the most dreaded stains to deal with is Kool-Aid. Its vibrant colors and sugary composition can make it seem like an impossible task to remove from carpets. However, fear not! In this article, we will provide you with effective methods to tackle Kool-Aid stains and restore the pristine beauty of your carpet.
Act Fast: Time is of the essence when it comes to stain removal. As soon as a Kool-Aid spill occurs, grab a clean cloth or paper towel and gently blot the stain to absorb as much liquid as possible. Avoid rubbing, as it can push the stain deeper into the fibers.
Prepare a Cleaning Solution: For a homemade cleaning solution, mix equal parts white vinegar and warm water in a spray bottle. Alternatively, you can use a carpet stain remover from a reputable brand. Test any cleaning solution in an inconspicuous area of your carpet first to ensure it doesn’t cause discoloration.
Treat the Stain: Spray the cleaning solution directly onto the stained area. Allow it to sit for a few minutes to penetrate the stain. Then, using a clean cloth or sponge, gently blot the stain from the outside toward the center. Repeat this process until the stain begins to fade.
Rinse the Area: Once the stain has lightened significantly, dampen a clean cloth with plain water and blot the area to rinse off any residue from the cleaning solution. Be careful not to saturate the carpet, as excessive moisture can lead to other issues like mold or mildew growth.
Employ Baking Soda: For stubborn Kool-Aid stains, baking soda can work wonders. After rinsing the area, sprinkle a generous amount of baking soda over the damp stain. Allow it to sit for a few hours or overnight, and then vacuum the baking soda. This will help absorb any remaining moisture and eliminate odors.
Professional Carpet Cleaning: If the above methods don’t yield satisfactory results, it may be time to call in the professionals. Professional carpet cleaners have specialized equipment and knowledge to effectively treat stubborn stains, including Kool-Aid. They can provide a deep cleaning that goes beyond surface-level stain removal.
Prevention for the Future: Prevention is better than cure. Consider using spill-resistant mats or rugs in areas where spills are more likely to occur, such as dining rooms or children’s play areas. Encourage family members and guests to be cautious when consuming colored beverages near the carpeted areas.
Conclusion: Kool-Aid stains on carpets can be distressing, but with the right approach, they can be successfully removed. Remember to act promptly, use appropriate cleaning solutions, and follow the steps outlined in this article. By doing so, you’ll be equipped with the knowledge and techniques to know how to remove carpet stains like Kool-Aid and keep your carpets looking their best.
7. How to remove carpet stains: Urine
Accidents happen, especially when you have pets or young children in your home. Dealing with urine stains and the accompanying odor on your carpet can be a challenging task. However, fear not! In this article, we will explore several effective methods to help you get rid of the urine smell and restore freshness to your carpet. With the right approach and a little patience, your carpet will be clean and odor-free once again.
Act Quickly: When it comes to dealing with urine on your carpet, time is of the essence. The longer urine sits on the carpet, the deeper it penetrates, making it more difficult to remove the odor. As soon as you discover the accident, promptly begin the cleaning process to increase your chances of success.
Blot the Area: Start by blotting the affected area with a clean cloth or paper towels. Press gently to absorb as much urine as possible. Avoid rubbing the stain, as it may spread the urine deeper into the carpet fibers. Continue blotting until you can no longer extract any liquid.
Prepare a Cleaning Solution: Create a homemade cleaning solution by combining equal parts of white vinegar and warm water. Alternatively, you can use a specialized enzymatic cleaner designed specifically for removing pet urine odors. These cleaners are available at pet stores and are highly effective in breaking down urine molecules.
Test the Cleaning Solution: Before applying the cleaning solution to the entire stained area, it’s crucial to test it on a small, inconspicuous part of the carpet. This step ensures that the solution doesn’t cause any discoloration or damage. If the test area remains unaffected, you can proceed with confidence.
Apply the Cleaning Solution: Pour the cleaning solution onto the stained area and allow it to penetrate the carpet fibers. Use a brush or a clean cloth to gently work the solution into the carpet, ensuring it reaches all affected layers. Be thorough but gentle to avoid damaging the carpet.
Rinse and Extract: After allowing the cleaning solution to sit for a few minutes, rinse the area thoroughly with clean water. You can use a spray bottle or a damp cloth to rinse away the solution. Once rinsed, use a wet/dry vacuum or a carpet cleaner to extract as much moisture as possible from the carpet.
Use Baking Soda: To further eliminate any lingering odors, sprinkle baking soda liberally over the treated area. Baking soda is a natural deodorizer that can help absorb and neutralize unpleasant smells. Leave the baking soda in place for several hours, or preferably overnight, before vacuuming it up.
Consider Professional Cleaning: If the urine odor persists despite your best efforts, it may be necessary to enlist the help of professional carpet cleaners. They have access to specialized equipment and cleaning solutions that can effectively tackle stubborn stains and odors.

San Cisco : Between You and Me Review
By Bea Willis
Bringing us surf rock and indie pop sounds from down under is a band called San Cisco. The band started in 2009 under the name King George with their four original members, Jordi, Josh, Scarlett, and Nick. In 2018 bassists, Nick was replaced by longtime friend Jennifer. Now San Cisco is a three-piece comprising Jordi Davieson (guitar, lead vocals), Josh Biondillo (guitar, vocals), and Scarlett Stevens (drums, vocals). San Cisco is releasing Between You and Me via Island City Records/Nettwerk Music Group. This is their fourth studio album, which features eleven tracks.
“Skin” begins the San Cisco experience with synth sounds and a clean guitar bending out a melody. Davieson takes the lead on this one. His melody is supported by Stevens vocals too. The trio has a knack for writing catchy melodies and a beat that is pop-rock perfection. A tasteful guitar solo fills the golden ratio and builds to superb three-part harmonies. San Cisco’s sound is stronger than ever.
“Messages” has an upbeat rock feel with Stevens taking the lead. Her voice is airy and light, as the catchy melody delivers the lyrics. The hues of the song and inner brilliance of the lyrics carry the charm of this selection. This catchy, fun style runs through the album with its mild, but constant popping up to rock to make sure the musical magic can be felt.
Between You and Me is sublime in its pop-rock approach, San Cisco will take you on a musical journey for a musical delight. The retro-sounding music is what people are listening to in conjunction with the classic tunes, and San Cisco is a new gem. San Cisco is fun retro music with a little of today’s attitude and influence, Between You and Me.

Driving a car is a privilege and a responsibility. The Spring 2017 Sharjah Men’s campus’s (SJM) Safe Driving Campaign, entitled “Your Life is a Trust”, was intended to remind drivers of the importance of driving responsibly at all times and to wear seat belts.
Each year, far too many individuals in the UAE are injured or lose their lives as a result of risk-taking behaviours such as excessive speed, tailgating, showing off, not wearing seat belts, inattentiveness and using mobile phones/texting whilst driving.
The campaign included posters, a large banner at the campus entrance, a video, an information booth, and safe driving reminders dispersed throughout the campus. There was also a vintage UAE police car and a vehicle severely damaged from a major accident on display.
Energized members of the safe driving campaign greeted drivers entering the campus. The team of students and staff reminded drivers of the importance of road safety and wearing seat belts.
The campaign included an informative library display of print and electronic resources supported the safe driving theme and featured car accident photographs. The display caught the attention of students and encouraged discussion.
One image, in particular, drew a lot of attention. Dennis Samaniego, SJM Library Technician, knew the story behind the particular accident and was able to engage the students in dialogue about safe driving habits. The library team also encouraged students to submit stories or artwork reflecting on personal experiences with traffic accidents.
The campaign also featured First Lieutenant Ali Saleh and Lieutenant Ahmed Ali from the Sharjah Police. Their talk focused on the traffic system, road safety guidelines/advice and an overview of the black points system. It is known that young drivers are involved in a high percentage of accidents and they were reminded to be careful on the roads.
Ahmed Umran Ali, an Engineering student and campaign volunteer, said that “people often overlook the importance of safe driving. They should know that driving can change your life if done recklessly”.
He added that we must all be considerate when we get in the driver’s seat as one careless mistake could cause great physical and emotional pain for many. In other words, be smart when you drive.
Shaik Hussain, another Engineering student and campaign volunteer, said that some people enjoy the thrill of racing their cars and showing off.
“What they don’t think about deeply is the danger behind their risky passion. One wrong turn can take a life and that person will be someone’s relative and in some cases may be the driver’s relative”. He also made the point that people would not drive as fast if they knew they were driving to their deaths.”

A first look at Liz Lambert's Hotel Havana project as her team prepared for opening day. I fell in love with this hotel then and I still recommend it to everyone visiting San Antonio.
Oil and water. Fire and ice. Locals and tourists. Was there ever a rivalry so needlessly twisted? While visitors crave the authentic experiences enjoyed by the natives, we all but recede to distant hometown corners, and never the twain do meet, despite a shared fondness for the River Walk, the Spurs, and margaritas.
Given this state of affairs, imagine the local outcry when the historic Hotel Havana — and its rare gem of an underground cigar bar — closed up shop for renovations under new ownership, rumored to be from Austin. Protests and conspiracy theories abounded; what would happen to the downtown hotel bar that even (especially?) the locals loved? Just a week shy of the scheduled grand reopening, it’s time to pull back the wool on the whole affair.
Purchased for just $7,500 in 1909, the prime piece of riverbank the Havana occupies is situated near the Municipal Auditorium, which is slated to become the Bexar County performing arts center in 2013. The hotel first opened its doors in 1914, and for the next 70 years changed hands occasionally without significant structural changes. In 1992, Theresa Greer, a developer with an eye for restoration, bought the place, and in 1997, the Havana Riverwalk Inn reopened to the public. Soon thereafter, San Antonio’s movers and shakers discovered the basement bar, and established it as the de-facto drinking headquarters for the city’s downtown scene. Artist Jesse Amado fondly recalls the bar as an out-of-the-way, romantic nook where he courted his now-wife Melissa.
“It had that old-world charm,” he said. “It was a place you could just get away from everyone and be one on one. Or sometimes there’d be a dozen or more of us, and we’d get all the chairs and circle them around.”
Soon the bar, christened Ocho will open its slightly hidden doors again to the general public, and this time, we’ll be stepping into the 1950s-inspired Cuba-vision of Texas’ hottest hotelier, Liz Lambert. A spunky West Texas native, Lambert is responsible for the stratospheric success of Austin’s San Jose Hotel, the affordable kin to her other casually luxurious property down the street, the Saint Cecilia. Lambert also lays claim to a West Texas property called El Cosmico, an experiential lodging outpost where visitors can rent a hammock for the night, sleep in a teepee, or pitch their own tents.
“She’s kind of a Renaissance person,” says Amy Cook, an Austin musician and Lambert’s longtime girlfriend. “She’s just got this active mind that’s always exploring.” In addition to the Havana, Lambert is currently at work expanding El Cosmico’s trailer space and pondering a swimming pool, but today, she’s in San Antonio, dressed to sweat. A bandana is tied Hank-the-Cowdog style around her neck, and her cropped hair is rakishly mussed.
“I feel like I’m on a game show,” Lambert says, glancing around the barren lobby. “Ninety days or 120 days to re-do and re-open the hotel.” Armed with a savvy tribe of assistants and business partners, Lambert has led a complete renovation of the hotel in less than four months.
In that time, architects David Lake and Kim Monroe of Lake/Flato Architects orchestrated a pretty basic maintenance job on the property, including reshingling the cheery red roof and cleaning up the landscaping, while leaving intact the antique tiled porch and original palms and cypress trees.
Structurally, the hotel’s interior is the same as it ever was, but it now feels fresh and spacious by way of the careful detailing of the materials. The dark, antique wood floors and white walls have been smoothed to subtle perfection, while the candy-hued bathrooms and chrome-handled minibars are all colorful play.
Lambert says more than 95 percent of the furniture in the hotel remains from its previous ownership, but everything’s been refurbished and in many cases, reupholstered — as I chat with Lambert, we stand beside a pack of blood-red patent-leather wingback chairs and a shapely couch, now bedecked in wild orange mohair.
Sensory experiences are key for Lambert. When I first stepped onto the grassy lawn of the Saint Cecilia Hotel, I was surprised and delighted by the scent of Nag Champa incense in the air. At the Havana today, wearing a Creamsicle-colored coat and cowboy boots, is Robin Kelley, artist of taste and purveyor of all you eat, drink, and smell at the hotels. Everyone is oohing over her latest presentation: the Havana breakfast basket, which she describes as “a picnic delivered to your room.” Folded atop a tidy straw basket is a copy of La Prensa, and inside, carafes of hot Cuban coffee, warm milk, sliced fruit, and fresh pan dulce from El Sol Bakery in Southtown.
Encouraging guests to entertain in their rooms is a theme Lambert will continue at the Havana, and thesuites are designed for company. “Obviously, we can’t provision guests a full kitchen,” Kelley said, “but crack open a bag of chips, some salsa, open up the beverages, and call it a day.” The minibar is packed with local salsas, cane-sugar Cokes, and a haul of Mexican street snacks, some of which you’ll have to see to believe.
“We just want to restore the Havana to its Cuban roots, while adding some Old Mexico flair,” said Kevin Osterhaus, Liz’s partner at Bunkhouse Management, which oversees all of the properties. Osterhaus emphasized that San Antonians need not fear a distortion of the hotel or the bar that they love. “We’re not trying to do Austin in San Antonio,” he says.
Beginning April 1, the basement bar will be open from 5 p.m. to midnight, Sunday through Thursday, and 5 p.m. to 2 a.m. on the weekends. Reservations for rooms are available now at havanasanantonio.com. With rooms starting at just $149 a night, and an evening of rum and cigars even less, the Hotel Havana is poised to retake its title as the common ground for visitors and tourists alike on the banks of the River Walk. | <urn:uuid:03d020e5-445a-49d7-8c9a-0c743faf416e> | CC-MAIN-2018-34 | http://www.nataliaciolko.com/havana-social | 2018-08-18T22:37:01Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2018-34/segments/1534221213794.40/warc/CC-MAIN-20180818213032-20180818233032-00042.warc.gz | en | 0.94167 | 1,452 |

|Mendigo's 2009: Albums|
I've got a fucking cold.
Merriweather Post Pavilion
My #1 spot was pretty much clear to me since January. I'd say it's worth every ounce of praise it gets - this is pure sonic bliss and happiness, a new classic.
|2||maudlin of the Well|
Part the Second
"Part the Second" is hard to describe. It's both like Toby Driver's work with Kayo Dot and older maudlin of the Well and it is not. It is less intimitatingly avant-garde than his recent albums, but more accessible. straight-forward, elegant, crystal clear. But also the exact opposite: experimental, labyrinthine, challenging. In the end it's mainly just beautiful though.
|3||The Kilimanjaro Darkjazz Ensemble|
Here Be Dragons
"Here Be Dragons" shows a promising band flourishing. The Kilimanjaro Darkjazz Ensemble creates a mixture of jazz, electronic, ambient and horror movie soundtrack that is as creepy as music can be. Although mainly instrumental the album seems to have a tight narrative, telling a dark and haunting story about who knows what. Unlike their German doom jazz peers Bohren & Der Club of Gore, they have a truly huge array of techniques and tricks available for disposal and write songs that enhance each other but are also able to stand alone as unique and original masterpieces.
Only Built 4 Cuban Linx... Pt II
You need to have a hell of a lot of self-confidence to try recording a direct follow-up to a genre masterpiece that's almost 15 years old by now, especially with a legacy that hasn't really remained all that solid. But Raekwon and his partners in crime show no sign of dread. And no sign of age either, they really pull it off with energy and a record filled to brim with each track crispier and more inspiring than the one before.
Another band that has shown a constant evolution throughout their - in this case relatively young - career and reached their (temporary?) peak in 2009. Giant Squid show how great the result can be if you mix classical instruments and metal wisely. Over the course of ten tracks they play themselves through an array of different possibilities from heavy to soft, chaotic to tight, catchy to complex and win constantly.
Lyrically this album is a heartwrenching, nightmarish masterpiece. Songwriter Peter Silberman writes poems that wouldn't even need to be backed up with music to unfold their power. But the deadly appropriate mixture of lo-fi folk, ambient and post rock not only accompanies these frightening tales of hate, love and death in a hospital ward (or whatever the hell they are truly about), but enhances them to an even bigger emotional impact.
Axe to Fall
Since "Jane Doe" I haven't been really enthralled by a Converge album. They were still a good and enjoyable band but only now with "Axe to Fall" I've felt the same kind of frantic power jumping at me from all directions. The album captures all the musicians at the height of their technical abilities and they turn in a masterpiece of fucked up anger.
|8||Altar of Plagues|
Right when Wolves in the Throne Room have become a bit too heavy for their own good, Altar of Plagues stepped forward with an excellent atmospheric black metal debut. "White Tomb" might have an ambitious environmental concept, but its power stems from the music. Four epic songs with no fear of breaking boundaries or striking new paths.
|9||Sole and the Skyrider Band|
No doubt Sole is at the top of his game on here, spinning fascinating dystopian tales. But at least as much if not even more admiration goes out to the Skyrider Band. These pulsating walls of sound are carefully built with bricks of IDM, glitch, trip-hop, indie rock, and more stuff I've overseen and form the backdrop which gives the MC's lyrics the urgency they deserve.
L'Autopsie Phenomenale de Dieu
Initially I sort of dismissed it as "just another" one of those ambient albums with a little experimental touch. That was until I listened to it closer again. And again. And again. Then I realized what an amazing, dreamlike journey "L'Autopsie Phenomenale de Dieu" is. Surreal soundscapes, quirky but subtle ideas, ethereal moods, it's all there. Doom jazz and chamber music, experimental and modern classical, ambient and holy shit I don't know what else. A real beauty.
|11||Soap and Skin|
Lovetune for Vacuum
Anja Plaschg has created an intense and emotinoally exhausting debut. Musically it is an eclectic mix of impossible influences from classical piano etudes to Nico, post rock, electronic and what not. But what makes it the experience it is, is Plaschg's vocal work and the heartfelt emotions that ring true in every whisper and every cry.
|12||World Sanguine Report|
Third One Rises
A mixture of insane blues punk, avant-garde jazz, bar music, cabaret, chamber music, Tom Waits' evil twin brother, frightening lyrics, incredible musicianship, vocal contortions and lots of awesomeness. This one was surely recorded in the devil's very own jazz bar.
Underground metal bands obviously cannot be mysterious enough. But when you don't only leave your two 20 minute tracks on your new album untitled but won't even reveal in what fucking language you're singing them you sort of take the cake. It's all not that important though, since what counts is that Ea create some of the most incredible doom metal this side of Esoteric.
Monoliths and Dimensions
Happily marching on their way to eh... fame, Sunn O))) gather more and more attention with every new release. While still odd enough to be heavily polarizing, "Monoliths & Dimensions" shows the duo (or in this special case, uh, orchestra) not only at their most accessible but also at their most fascinating and in my very humble opinion at their best.
Isis are not big for surprises. Except maybe that they somehow manage to stay so true to their roots and still sound fresh and new with every record. So "Wavering Radiant" is pretty much what was expected of it, a typical Isis album but still in no way predictable or even boring. After all, they obviously still are at the forefront of their respective genre.
Who says black metal isn't inventive anymore? Panopticon, the one-man project of Austin Lunn, surely is. At times atmospheric with allusions to ambient and post rock, but also heavy and disturbing if it wants to. And then out of nowhere Lunn obviously loves to incorporate some - bluegrass. Should be done by more black metal bands I guess, since it works perfectly. Also, how many black metal artists manage to be so heavily political without coming off as ignorant assholes?
|17||Secret Chiefs 3|
Probably Trey Spruance should try out directing. The Severed Right Hands of the Last Men. Hell yeah. But no matter what, we've still got this album which even the masters of the Giallo and Spaghetthi Western soundtracks would have been more than proud of.
Code make quite experimental Norwegian black metal in the vein of Ved Buens Ende. Highly inventive and imaginative, clear and complex, a worthy successor to their exceptional debut album.
|19||Do Make Say Think|
Like all the great post rock albums "Other Truths" doesn't rely on the old boring loud/silent, crescendo/climax, atmospheric/heavy contrasts. Instead it experiments with jazzy ideas, chamber music, unusual sounds and rhythms and how to put all of that into coherent songs. Although being - well - "epic" with the shortest of the four songs ticking in at eight minutes, the album never turns into something overblown, instead there is a certain intimacy here which makes it all the more interesting to listen to.
As far as I know them, most attempts of mixing classical and rock fail one way or another, sounding too botched, using orchestration only as a meaningless backdrop or to blow everything out of proportion and all that. Tyondian Braxton, probably better known as the "frontman" of Battles, took a new and hugely successful path. "Central Market" is math rock dressed in classical clothes. Or something like that. Hell I don't have any idea whether I "got" what Braxton was after here, but I just love the unusual uses of instruments and techniques that usually don't fit together like that at all.
Kamaal the Abstract
Putting the whole ridiculous release history aside, what I really found fascinating about this is that it's so damn laid back and smooth that initially I was totally oblivious to how great it actually is. Radically different from the old A Tribe Called Quest material, often closer to nu jazz and neo-soul than hip hop, this is nevertheless an excellent and accomplished piece of work.
That this album was allegedly recorded with actual instrument and only later distorted until you'd swear it has never seen a piano or a drum set is just an amusing side note. What's important is that Chris Clark finally stepped out of Aphex Twin's long shadow with his new shortened moniker and released a piece of music that is as exceptional as it is unique. Abstract but catchy, aggressive but at times quite smooth, with a perfect sound and fantastic ideas.
|23||Orphans of Cush|
My knowledge about British hip hop lies around zero. But from now on I have one album I can absolutely recommend to anyone. "White Noize" is angry. And it is thoughtful, funny, angry, intelligent and engaging and generally doing pretty much everything a great hip hop album could do. The beats are superb and the lyrics are spit out with a huge amount of passion.
Recent studies have revealed that before the more badass Stone Age tribes went out slaughtering mammoths or less badass Stone Age tribes they put this album on to summon all their primeval energy and bow to the chaotic madness on display here.
Ugly as a blob fish, but just as fascinating. I cannot think of a more "extreme" album than this mixture of noise, drone, doom and whatever music is able to cause severe headaches. But they really know their shit and the album they have crafted works amazingly well throughout.
|26||Various Artists (Indie)|
Dark Was the Night
Not often is donating such a little amount of money a more selfish act than when you buy this album. "Dark Was the Night" brings together a large number of the bands that are currently on the forefront of the indie rock scene. A mix of stunning cover versions, wonderful originals and unlikely collaborations. With 2 hours length this sampler of course has its various low points but the majority of the tracks are at the very least admirable and absolutely mind blowing at their best.
My biggest complaint here is that I'd really love to actually understand the Polish lyrics. Other than that "Der Prozess" mostly delivers the goods for me. Somewhere in between (post-)hardcore and progressive punk, with its horn section (!) and long but focused compositions constantly setting it apart from the "usual" attempts at writing punk epics. Armia play around with styles and make themselves equally at home in orchestrated beauty and raw heaviness.
|28||The Flaming Lips|
I did like The Flaming Lips' delve into ridiculous indie pop but this change of direction towards something even more spaced out and considerably darker is a pleasant surprise nonetheless. "Embryonic" is a summer of love revival through and through, jazz rock jams and heavy psych, naked hippies and lots of drugs. The diversity and large amount of true gems guarantee that it won't show any signs of exhaustion in spite of its length.
In the Constellation of the Black Widow
Heavy, like in really heavy. At times chaotic and rather extreme, and I'm quite sure that grindcore on the brink of black metal is a more accurate deion than the other way round. Well, they surely know what they're doing and this album does not cease to hit hard again and again.
Strange Journey Volume One
A large collection of songs and instrumentals, just short of 80 minutes. But if there is a hip hop group which can get away with packing an album almost twice on one disc, it's CunninLynguists. Addictive and intelligent beats, wonderful rhymes and a endless amount of creativity, skits that are actually funny, songs that are in no way less engrossing in their instrumental version than with rapping and a bunch of noteworthy remixes. No doubt that Cunninlynguists truly are one of the essential hip hop groups these days. | <urn:uuid:a6a0d1eb-5e9e-45b6-9595-f5c64c4a6df3> | CC-MAIN-2015-18 | http://www.sputnikmusic.com/list.php?listid=36948&memberid=245321 | 2015-04-28T20:10:45Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2015-18/segments/1429246662032.70/warc/CC-MAIN-20150417045742-00277-ip-10-235-10-82.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.949442 | 2,689 |

Following the behemoth that was Avengers: Endgame, Ant-Man 3 is one of the many projects Marvel Studios currently has in the works. Not much is known about the project thus far, but we do know that the story has been figured out. Now, it would appear that the threequel has tapped has found a new cast member in the form of a Lovecraft Country star, and his character could have massive ramifications on the MCU moving forward.
Marvel Studios has reportedly tapped Jonathan Majors for Ant-Man 3, per Deadline. And according to the trade’s sources, Majors will play fan-favorite Marvel villain Kang the Conqueror. The sources also mentioned that Kang’s role in the Marvel Cinematic Universe could involve a twist or two that sets him apart from his comic book counterpart. However, it’s still believed that he will be a major villain in Ant-Man 3.
Ant-Man 3 is being produced by Kevin Feige and directed by Peyton Reed from a script by Jeff Loveness. Jonathan Majors will join a cast that includes the likes of Paul Rudd, Evangeline Lilly and Michael Douglas.
Jonathan Majors has been making a serious name for himself over the past few years. In 2020 alone, he starred in Spike Lee’s Da 5 Bloods and began headlining HBO’s critically acclaimed horror, fantasy series Lovecraft Country. He previously had roles in films like White Boy Rick and The Last Black Man in San Francisco.
Originally introduced in the pages of Fantastic Four back in 1963, Kang is a possible descendant of Reed Richards who hails from the 31st century. When the time traveler takes a trip to the 20th century, he comes into conflict with Doctor doom and even the Avengers. And in an attempt to return home, he goes too far into the future and returns to a war-torn Earth. With this, he manages to take control of the new world and dubs himself Kang the Conqueror. But he soon resolves to take over the Earth of the 20th century due to the fact that his own world is dying.
Kang the Conqueror is a classic Marvel Comics villain and one that fans have been wanting to see in the MCU for some time now. With Thanos now out of the picture, many assumed that Kang would take on the role as the MCU’s next Big Bad. Now, it seems that those dreams will be realized.
The vast presence of the Quantum Realm within the Ant-Man franchise could have something to do with Kang’s appearance, but that remains to be seen. Peyton Reed has, however, teased that this installment will be larger in scope than its predecessors, which means we’ll be in for more than a small and quirky story this time around. But whatever the case, news of Jonathan Majors joining as Kang is an exciting prospect, and he should be able to provide the gravitas necessary to bring the compelling villain to life.

Teen, 15, fights off shark in dusk surf
* By Nathan Mawby and Geoff Chambers
* From: The Daily Telegraph
* September 16, 2010 12:00AM
A TEENAGER almost had his leg bitten off by a 2m shark after a close encounter on the NSW North Coast.
Jake Davies, 15, was surfing with his dad and a friend near Fraser's Reef, near Iluka, on Monday night when he was attacked by the shark as he paddled on a wave about 5pm.
The shark grabbed on to his foot and pulled him down but the surfer kicked back and it released him.
The shark attempted two more attacks before the 15-year-old could ride a wave in and drag himself ashore.
Jake said it was a totally terrifying fight.
"I was just paddling and something grabbed me and there was a big shadow behind me," Jake said.
"At first I thought I had jammed my foot in a rock, but then I've thought that rocks don't close on either side of your foot."
He escaped by paddling on a wave while the shark turned to return for another attack.
"I got on my board and got out of there before it could come at me again," he said.
"I got out of there pretty quickly, but blood was all over the beach."
He was rushed to the emergency centre at McLean Hospital where he received a number of stitches and was treated for puncture wounds on his leg.
Despite the terror of his ordeal Jake has vowed that he won't let it keep him from getting back into the water.
"I've been surfing there for four years and there haven't been any attacks in 10 years so it won't stop me," he said.
Jake won't be returning to the water for the moment, with the stitches in his foot keeping him on crutches for a few weeks.
There have been a series of shark attacks off northern NSW in recent years, involving great whites, bull sharks and bronze whalers.
Last year, surfer Jono Beard had a 40cm chunk bitten out of his left thigh while surfing off Fingal.
And a 1.5m bronze whaler shark bit Zac Skyring at nearby Broken Head in July, inflicting wounds on his arm.

When Sophia returns to her family home, she is not prepared for the sight that greets her. In the garden, she finds her mother hanging from a tree and her father, close to death in a pool of blood. As far as the police are concerned, it is an open and shut case of attempted murder-suicide but Sophia is not convinced. When a few strange things start to happen, she begins to feel that there is someone watching her, leaving her to wonder just exactly what the circumstances are behind this terrible tragedy.
I loved Helen Callaghan’s previous book, Dear Amy, so was thrilled to have the opportunity to read Everything is Lies pre-publication. I was expecting something in a similar vein for the follow-up but Everything is Lies is completely different to what I was expecting although equally gripping. From the blurb, I envisaged a whodunnit with intrigue but from the moment we are introduced to the notebooks left by Sophia’s mum, detailing her younger life spent in an infamous cult, I knew that this story was going to go in a completely different direction.
At first, I was not totally enamoured with the notebook sections as I was desperate to know more about the investigation into the death of Sophia’s mum. I was soon drawn in, however, after realising that these notebooks would give the background knowledge to understand exactly what had occurred. I could imagine how difficult it was for Sophia, trying to visualise her quiet, neurotic mum as this free-willed young woman as portrayed in the notebooks. I think that deep down, Nina (Sophia’s mum) knew that there was more to this cult than met the eye, but the draw and excitement was too much for her to walk away from, even when the alarm bells began to ring for her.
The cult scenes were well-written, Helen Callaghan showing how easy it is for an impressionable young woman to be swept along with the whole situation. From the outside, looking in, it was apparent how self-centred and obnoxious the cult leader was, and I was willing Nina to come to her senses before tragedy struck. The other members of the cult were equally unlikeable but, in spite of this, the author manages to keep you reading, wanting to know more.
In the present day, as well as trying to find out the true cause of her mother’s death, Sophia is struggling with her own personal and work life after several incidents at the firm where she works. When her work appeared to be sabotaged, this added to the general unease she was already feeling. Was it related to her aborted assignation with a colleague or is it linked to the notebooks that her mother was seeking to publish? I got to the point where the only person I felt I could trust was Sophia herself as I tried to figure out exactly who was to blame for the numerous mysterious occurrences.
As the book progressed, I did have an inkling as to what the outcome would be with regards to one part of the plot and I was pleased to find I’d worked it out! My theory helped to add to the general unease I felt throughout the book as Helen Callaghan delivered more and more intriguing problems. Everything is Lies is definitely one to be watching out for in 2018!

Thurmont residents will once again have a second grocery store in town when Weis Markets opens behind McDonald’s this summer.
Since the Jubilee grocery store at Thurmont Plaza in the center of town closed several years ago, there has only been one grocery store in the town of 5,700 residents. The new grocery store broke ground Friday, though site work began early last week.
Weis Markets approached the town about finding a suitable site on which to build a store several years ago, Mayor Martin Burns said. Town officials had hoped Weis would build on the grounds where the Jubilee grocery store once stood across town from the Food Lion, but that site was not large
enough to accommodate a ‘‘superstore.” Weis will be 53,700 square feet, and will be located in the same part of town as Food Lion.
‘‘We’re really excited about it because we believe that competition is always good for our residents, and it will help drive prices down in both stores,” Burns said.
Amy Grube of Thurmont frequently drives to Emmitsburg to shop at Jubilee, and said the Food Lion, the town’s only supermarket, can get busy on weekends. Grube is the type of shopper who looks through ads and goes where the lowest prices are, she said.
‘‘I think having another grocery store here will be good for competition in town, and will bring some more jobs to the area, too,” Grube said.
The store will bring an estimated 150 full- and part-time jobs into the town, said Dennis Curtin, a Weis Markets spokesman. Weis hopes to open the store in mid to late summer.
While Cindy Long of Thurmont has never had a problem waiting in line at the Food Lion, she looks forward to having a second store in town.
‘‘It was better when they had two stores because you could shop between them,” Long said.
Carlisle Smith of Thurmont agreed that the town would benefit from having another grocery store there.
‘‘Yeah, they need another store here,” Smith said.
Smith shops at several grocery stores including ones in Frederick city and Emmitsburg. ‘‘I shop where the sales are,” Smith said.
The new store will be constructed using the chain’s newest store prototype, which is modeled to cater to the two distinct types of shoppers, Curtin said. The first type of shoppers eat most of their food at home, plan their meals for the week, and generally do all their shopping in one weekly
For this first variety of shoppers, the new Thurmont Weis Markets superstore will include a 500-item produce department with an organic selection of fruits and vegetables and a floral department.
It will have a full-service bakery, service seafood department, pharmacy, and self-scanning registers. There will also be a ‘‘center store,” where shoppers can purchase natural, organic, gourmet, and ethnic items.
The second type of shoppers come in at 5 p.m. and have no idea what to do for dinner, Curtin said. The supermarket will cater to this second variety of shoppers by offering ‘‘heat and serve” meals, like rotisserie chicken. The superstore will also have a large deli with a pizza kitchen, an
express register, a Hoagie Shack, and a sit-down eating area.
‘‘Our new store prototype offers customers tremendous one-stop shopping convenience in addition to outstanding value and variety,” Weis vise-chairman Jonathan Weis said in a press release. ‘‘As a company which operates multiple stores in Frederick and Hagerstown, we feel right at home in

Greetings, fellow coders and game designers! Today’s topic is how we can build a Unity AI inside a game by using visual scripting systems.
This post is an introduction, so we’ll keep things simple. We’ll compare two powerful tools: Playmaker and Behavior Designer (follow the links for their full reviews). For Pathfinding both of them use Unity NavMesh Agents, but the same approach applies for specialized assets like A* Pathfinding or Apex Path (you can see a comparison between those three pathfinding options here). Both Playmaker and Behavior Designer are excellent in their own right, but they differ from each other in several important aspects when applied to behaviors.
For the sake of simplicity, I’ll assume you are at least somewhat familiar with Unity, and that you know what Unity Assets are. We’ll start with the core concepts and afterwords compare the workflow in the two visual scripting tools.
AI in the Context of Gaming
When we talk about artificial intelligence in gaming, we don’t mean machines simulating human thought processes. The fields of machine learning and deep learning are profoundly interesting, but their theory and implementation remain on the cutting edge of academic research. It would be extraordinarily difficult to implement anything like Apple’s Siri or Amazon’s Alexa inside a game – and it would also be a complete waste of time.
But if that is the case, how do we create an intelligence inside a game? Well, we are game developers – so we cheat! 🙂
We don’t really need our non-player characters and units to “think” – we only need them to act as if they were thinking. By game AI we generally mean computational behavior, or the simulation of a specific purposeful activity. Put simply, we are interested only in the appearance of intellect. If it looks like a duck and quacks like a duck, then good job, fella, that’s a nice duck AI right there! 😛
Tools for AI Behavior: FSM vs Behavior Tree
Let’s outline a simple game example. Imagine a survival game where the player is walking in the forest and meets a wolf. How do we make the behavior of the wolf believable?
The classic approach in visual programming is to define states and transition between them when certain criteria are met. This model of computation is called a Finite State Machine (FSM) and is employed by popular Unity assets like Playmaker. Of course, FSMs are used not only to guide behaviors, but for general visual scripting. The beauty of this model is its simplicity and reliability: you always know what state the character is in. You can confidently use FSMs for simple interactions, but they tend to become unmanageable monsters in situations of high complexity.
A more advanced approach is to use behavior trees. This model is implemented by the Behavior Designer Unity asset (among others). Behavior trees are very similar to FSMs, but they use “tasks” instead of “states”. This approach has several advantages including more power (you can update a tree more easily than an FSM) and greater flexibility, e.g. your units can execute multiple tasks in parallel at the same time. Generally, you can use FSMs to create simple behaviors, but if your game AI is going to be complex, a behavior tree would save you a lot of hair-pulling later on.
Let’s map out the behavior of our wolf.
Making a simple FSM in Playmaker
Tip: when dealing with behavior, start by defining the most fundamental states and gradually build up the complexity.
In this case we only need two core states: Stalking and Attack. In Stalking, the wolf would wait close to the path. If the player enters into a predefined range, the wolf will transition to the Attack state. In practice, it is a piece of pie to implement this in Playmaker (although you could also write your own script and continuously check the distance between the positions of the wolf and the player in the Update function or better yet, inside a Coroutine).
Now, in the Attack state the wolf will go to the position of the player. The player can still escape if he exits the range of the wolf; if that happens, the wolf would go to the location of the last sighting and transition back to the Stalking state. And there you have it – a simple wolf behavior at a glance.
How does this look in Playmaker? Here is a screenshot of the Wolf FSM:
The Wolf FSM Explained
In the Stalking state we have 3 actions: Get Distance, Float Compare and Wait. This sequence determines whether the player is in the Wolf’s range (set here to 20). If the player is closer than 20, the FSM transitions to the Attack state, where the wolf would go to the player’s position (and presumably do damage). We are only looking at the behavior logic here, so we won’t be covering the pathfinding actions inside the Attack state. Let’s just say that you can use either Playmaker’s additional NavMesh actions (which implement Unity’s NavMesh and are available here), or the actions from your favorite Pathfinding tool like A* Pathfinding or Apex Path (Playmaker supports both of them).
Side note: while in the Stalking state, we could also check for a clear line of sight by ray-casting between the player and the wolf’s positions. However, a game designer should always try to think in the context of the game’s environment and avoid extra developing efforts. In this case, wouldn’t the wolf smell the player even without a clear line of sight? Just play the audio of a low creepy growl when the wolf detects the player (and if making a Fantasy, add a grinning, hungry “Ahrrr, I smell you-u…”). This would alert the player to the danger, make the game experience more immersive and – always fun – scare the bejesus out of him. Bottom line: think logically and try to add value, not complexity.
OK, so very easy stuff, right? Now let’s implement a behavior tree to make the wolf a bit more capable.
Creating complex behavior with Behavior Designer
Behavior Designer is a user-friendly and pretty powerful AI tool for Unity 3D. You can find a complete review of it here.
First, we add a Repeater task, which will keep executing the child tasks. Next, we add a Sequence, which runs its child tasks sequentially until one of them returns failure. The child tasks are Search and Attack. In Search the wolf will wonder around the forest, looking for the player. Once the player is seen or heard within the specified range, the Attack task be executed.
You can see how straight-forward the implementation is when using behavior trees. To make things even easier, Behavior Designer has 3 additional packs available: Movement, Tactical and Formations. In this particular tree, the Search task is part of Movement, and Attack is part of the Tactical pack. Their use is extremely simple – just connect them to the tree and tweak their parameters to your liking. By default, Behavior Designer uses Unity’s NavMesh Agent, but it also supports Unity’s more powerful navigation assets like A* Pathfinding and Apex Path.
With this example we conclude our Unity Game AI introduction. If you have never tried the tools above and feel a bit overwhelmed, don’t worry! All you need is to play around with Playmaker or Behavior Designer for a couple for hours and you will feel much more confident.
But be careful: if you somehow manage to create a functioning conscious artificial general intelligence, please make it more like WALL-E and less like Skynet ;).

Internships are a great way to gain work experience, but how do you get a good summer internship and what are employees looking for? We speak to Felix Lanceley, Director of Student Services and academic registrar at the University of Wollongong in Dubai, to get a few tips on how to go about obtaining a position that will stand the student in good stead once he or she has left full-time education.
“Ideally students will be well organised, and so will get the task of finding a suitable internship underway as early as possible,” Felix begins. “A good university will have staff who are in charge of finding employment and internship opportunities for its students, so that is a good first port of call. If there is a specific company where a student would like to undertake an internship, they should be willing to reach out to the HR department or other relevant staff to see if there are opportunities available. Students looking for internship opportunities should be persistent.”
When reaching out, of course, it is a good idea to be aware of the skills and attributes a company is looking for, with Felix continuing: “Attitude goes a long way. When an employer engages with an intern, they are not expecting the intern to know everything, but they are expecting the intern to have a positive disposition towards work, to pay attention, and be willing to learn. Employers look for interns who are proactive and can add value in the role given. A good candidate’s profile will be diverse in both academic and co-curricular activities – companies look for interns who are all-rounders.”
When applying, a good up-to-date CV is also important, as is pointing out availability and the strengths of the applicant, including what value they will be able to add to the organisation. “This would be in the form of a cover letter, stating why the individual wants to apply for the role, highlighting their strengths and areas of interest, Felix explains. “Applicants should focus more on the role or industry and how it would benefit and complement their degree. A good written reference and details of a dependable referee would also be beneficial.”
Finding the time to properly prepare for the interview is vital, too. “Like anything new at which you would like to excel, you need to practice, practice, and practice some more. Interviewing is an unnatural situation, so it is something that you need training with to hone your skills. Ideally the student’s university will have staff who can assist with interview skills, otherwise friends and family will have to do. Do your homework about the company, arrive early, and be confident and ready to clearly articulate how you will be of benefit to the company.”
And what if the student is not qualified, should an application still be made? “It depends on the kind of role that is on offer. If an internship requires the ability to communicate fluently in Arabic, and the student does not have that skill, then clearly it is not the right opportunity for them. On the other hand, if an internship requires a certain amount of experience, which the student does not have, but he or she can demonstrate the applicable skills and knowledge through other experiences – such as volunteering at university – then they can definitely apply,” Felix concludes.

Why is the conflict not being solved?
Many years have passed since 1948, but it still seems the most crucial date in the eyes of many Palestinian leaders and especially Hamas.
The conflict between Israel and the Palestinians is an old one, and its apparent
insolvability seems odd to most people, and especially to
This is because the way the Western world approaches this
conflict is based on two beliefs. The first is that human differences can be
solved via reason and dialogue, and the second, related belief is that most
human beings can overcome irrationality.
However, to better understand
the intractable nature of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict one needs to keep in
mind that at least with regard to the Middle East, this Western assumption of
rationality is subject to certain limitations. Rationality means to mainly focus
on the near future and consider how the greatest prosperity and good for all can
be attained. But can we say that this describes leaders in the Middle East?
Unfortunately, I have to say no.
Hamas’ rise to power was fueled by
Palestinian insistence on the need to “repair” the past, to undo the
consequences of the 1948 war between the Arabs and the new-born Israel. After
World War II, the United Nation recognized the right of the Jews to a country of
their own, and David Ben-Gurion, the first prime minister, announced its
Since the Arab defeat in 1948, they have been forced to
accept the fact that the Jews have their own country in the Middle
Many years have passed since 1948, but it still seems the most
crucial date in the eyes of many Palestinian leaders and especially Hamas. While
rationalism means acknowledging the consequences of past events and using them
to your own advantage, the leaders of Hamas are still mainly focusing on the
events of 1948.
Furthermore, in the speeches of the Arab leaders,
including the new Egypt prime minister, the word “Israel” is never
For the Arab leaders the near future is
What’s important is to change the past, the outcome of the
war of 1948 – or in the exact words of the Iranian leaders, to “wipe Israel off
Since the Israel Defense Forces left Gaza in 2004, the
Palestinians had another opportunity to build their nation. Gaza was left
without any settlements and without any Israeli soldiers.
Arab and Western leaders came to Gaza and contributed money for the future of
new country. Hopes were high and it was in the hands of the Palestinians leaders
to decide what their future country would look like.
Eight years on,
however, most Gazans live without hope for a better future. If you remember only
the 1948 war and live to “repair” its consequences, then of course it will be
tempting to blame Israel.
However, If your focus is on how to build a
better future for both nations, how to bring hope to miserable children in Gaza
or to Israelis forced to live in shelters, you must let go of the
Rationalism means acknowledging reality and assessing with reason
what you can and cannot achieve.
Acknowledging reality does not mean
forgetting the past, it only signifies that in our private relation with the
past we are not free to do as we will. | <urn:uuid:51a89681-a745-47fb-9d60-ce0538ebbb29> | CC-MAIN-2015-35 | http://www.jpost.com/LandedPages/PrintArticle.aspx?id=299366 | 2015-09-01T20:40:25Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2015-35/segments/1440645208021.65/warc/CC-MAIN-20150827031328-00314-ip-10-171-96-226.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.950861 | 707 |

The World Health Organization (WHO; //) is a specialized agency of the United Nations (UN) that is concerned with international public health. It was established on 7 April 1948, headquartered in Geneva, Switzerland. The WHO is a member of the United Nations Development Group. Its predecessor, the Health Organization, was an agency of the League of Nations. The constitution of the World Health Organization had been signed by 61 countries on 22 July 1946, with the first meeting of the World Health Assembly finishing on 24 July 1948. It incorporated the Office International d'Hygiène Publique and the League of Nations Health Organization. Since its creation, it has played a leading role in the eradication of smallpox. Its current priorities include communicable diseases, in particular HIV/AIDS, Ebola, malaria and tuberculosis; the mitigation of the effects of non-communicable diseases; sexual and reproductive health, development, and aging; nutrition, food security and healthy eating; occupational health; substance abuse; and driving the development of reporting, publications, and networking. The WHO is responsible for the World Health Report, a leading international publication on health, the worldwide World Health Survey, and World Health Day (7 April of every year). The head of WHO is Margaret Chan.
The 2014/2015 proposed budget of the WHO is about US$4 billion. About US$930 million are to be provided by member states with a further US$3 billion to be from voluntary contributions.

Microsoft pays a great deal of attention towards the security and privacy of the user of the system. Microsoft tends to make their system potentially secure along with the simplification of the user interface. Hence, with the release of Windows 10, Microsoft polished the login screen quite effectively. Also, some critical changes were made to the “Windows protected storage” service to increase the security of the system. Users of Windows can now use PINs or Passwords to access their system securely.
Unfortunately, unlike any other operating system available in the market, Microsoft Windows is not perfect and users of Windows find themselves struggling with a newfound bug every now and then. Some of these bugs are quite irritating and makes no sense. One of these annoying issues is “Windows 10 won’t accept password at login”. Multiple users have reported going through this problem. The reason behind this problem is so irritating is that the user knows the password of the system to be correct and put it correctly in the system, still being unable to loing to system. This issue can occur at the time of fresh boot or could be even after you access the system after multiple hours in sleep mode.
Users have also complained about Windows 10 having a similar issue while entering to Safe Mode.
Windows 10 Doesn’t Accept My Password
There could be multiple possible explanations behind this error. It could be either corrupted system files or some bad sectors generated in your hard drive which are not accessible by the operating system. In short, if the error is not caused by the human error from the user side, it can happen most probably because of the communication barrier between system and hardware. If you use an active internet connection on the system, the probable core of the issue would be desynchronization of the system with the cloud servers of Microsoft.
How to Fix Windows 10 won’t Accept Password
Here are some of the methods that you can try to fix this issue.
Method 1: Use virtual keyboard to enter the password
This might seem a little ludicrous, but it is possible that the keyboard you are currently using is the reason you are repeatedly entering the wrong password without acknowledging it. It could be because of the damaged keyboard membrane or some keyboard driver issue. So, It is better to rule out the common aberration before going any further.
- You can use the virtual keyboard by accessing the “Ease of access” option provided in the lower right corner of your screen.
- Once you click on it, it will open the list of available accessibility features. You will find “Virtual keyboard” option in the list.
- Click on the “”Virtual keyboard” option to open the keyboard. Use the software keyboard to enter your password.
If you have successfully verified that the reason behind the problem is not the keyboard, you can safely move forward to administer other solutions.
Method 2: Reset password using Microsoft online account recovery
You can apply this solution even if you are not able to log into your PC. You can use any other device with a secure internet connection and a browser to get this done. All you have to do is go to the address “account.live.com/password/reset“, and reset your password by following the instructions provided on the website.
You should have access to your email address or phone number which you used to create the account in the first place to be able to reset the password. Microsoft will send a secure one-time-password (OTP) on your registered email address or phone number which you can use to verify the ownership of the account. After that, Microsoft will allow you to change the password.
Once you have changed the password, try to enter the new password in your PC’s sign-in window. You should be able to successfully access the account now without any hassle.
Method 3: Use the secondary Windows 10 admin account
This method will surely get you out of this problem if you have a secondary account present in your system. You can either boot into existing secondary account or you can create one using the command prompt available in WinRE(Windows Recovery Environment). You can use the built-in admin account to resolve this issue without any trouble. All you have to do is remove your primary Microsoft account and add it again. This will resolve the desynchronization with the Microsoft servers that might be the cause of the problem.
To use your secondary account to solve this issue, Follow these steps:
- Log in through the secondary account. (if available)
- After you are in the system, right click on the start icon and click on the command prompt.
- Put the following command in the command prompt and press enter.
net user Administrator /active:yes
- Now, a sign-in account will be created named as “Admin”. If you log in through this account, you should be able to access the admin privileges.
- Now, to remove the Microsoft account, Open start menu and search “User accounts”
- Press enter to open the account management window.
- In the “Other People” section, you will see the Guest account. Left click on the account and then select “Remove” option to remove the account from your system.
- You should be able to add the account back again without any issue.
Method 4: Perform a Clean Boot
You can avoid the interference of third-party application at the time of boot by performing a clean boot. To perform a clean boot:
- Access the system using the secondary admin account.
- Click on start and type “msconfig” and press enter to open the system configuration window.
- In the system configuration window, click on “Services”. Then make sure that “Hide all Microsoft services” box is checked and click on “Disable all” button.
- Now, Click on “Startup”. Then click on “Open task manager”.
- Now, you can disable the startup services which you don’t require by simply selecting the service and clicking on “Disable”.
- Now, the system will reboot without any third-party application. (i.e., Clean boot). This will prevent the interference of newly installed software in the sign-in process and you should be able to enter the system.
Even after trying above methods if you still can’t login to your Windows 10, then last option left is to Reset Windows 10 or Reinstall. | <urn:uuid:e93c797b-7063-457c-a284-77691dcd048f> | CC-MAIN-2022-49 | https://www.blogsdna.com/29334/windows-wont-accept-password-at-login.htm | 2022-12-06T14:14:45Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-49/segments/1669446711108.34/warc/CC-MAIN-20221206124909-20221206154909-00419.warc.gz | en | 0.902937 | 1,345 |
Tragic school girl Kiera Beagle was today taken by a white-horse drawn carriage to be laid to rest in a white coffin with purple tassels.
Hundreds of mourners including her family and school pals paid their final farewell to the 13-year-old exactly two weeks after she collapsed in a PE class.
The Calderhead High pupil was described as an “exceptional, thoughtful, kind and intelligent girl” by Rev. Allan Brown who conducted the service at Calderhead Erskine Parish Church, Shotts.
A photo montage of Kiera was shown on a big screen as Charlene Soraia’s ‘Wherever You Will Go’ played before mourners sang ‘All Things Bright and Beautiful’ to end the service.
Kiera’s coffin was then carried from the church in a horse-drawn carriage to make her final journey where she was laid to rest at nearby Benhar Cemetery.
Pupils there formed a guard of honour in her memory.
The moving service was packed as mourners gathered to say their goodbyes to the bright and bubbly teenager who would have turned 14 this month.
Many wore purple in honour of the teenager described as a compassionate and caring girl.
Rev Allan Brown read from Kiera’s application to become a vice-captain when she was at the nearby Stane Primary as well as her list of New Years resolutions for 2016.
He spoke of how Kiera had made friends with people all over the world thanks to her love of role playing games on the internet and how she aspired to be a journalist when she was older.
He said: “Kiera was an exceptional girl; she was thoughtful, kind, intelligent and articulate.
“She loved animals especially her pet rabbit and had a great love of horses.
“Kiera was someone whose life we should celebrate. She touched the lives of everyone who knew her."
Several of Kiera’s friends held back tears as they paid their own tributes with a reading and a poem before Calderhead High teacher John Robertson spoke at length of how Kiera’s bright and bubbly personality made an impact on staff and fellow pupils.
Mr Robertson said: “Kiera was the emodiment of our school motto - Facta Non Verba - deeds not words.
“She always had a smile on her face, she was always trying to make people laugh and she was always kind to them.
“When a police officer asked me her surname I couldn’t answer, she was simply Kiera.”
Mr Robertson also announced that a cherry tree will be planted in the grounds of the school in Kiera’s honour. | <urn:uuid:4f8ebdfa-0da2-4a21-a7be-dcaf3231bd0d> | CC-MAIN-2017-51 | http://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/news/local-news/tragic-school-girl-kiera-beagle-8149769 | 2017-12-18T05:57:32Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2017-51/segments/1512948608836.84/warc/CC-MAIN-20171218044514-20171218070514-00558.warc.gz | en | 0.984747 | 569 |

I’m Jennie. My parents used to call me “Jennifer Jean the Dancing Machine”. I am a right brain cliché who married a left brain cliché. Somehow it works except neither of us know how to cook. I don’t like recipes (because they are bossy) so I buy CSA vegetables, mostly just for looks.
I love NPR, my podcasts are my coworkers. When I start to take it all too seriously I can count on my kids for a dance party or a sweet blanket fort. Whoever said having kids was “to decide forever to have your heart go walking around outside your body” was painfully correct. My kids are funny, creative, stubborn, (mostly) kind and always make me want to do better.
Our home is like another member of our family. When we found it, we loved it unconditionally despite its 47 varieties of wallpaper. On any given day you might find us renovating/repairing/painting something in our home. In turn I am completely inspired by the spaces people create for themselves. Walking into someone’s home is like reading a chapter of their book.
Despite my love for interiors, I will do anything to be outside in fresh air, ideally near/in/on some form of water. Somehow I always end up barefoot, does that make me a hippie? I don’t like labels. My current drug of choice is Instagram where I try to capture beauty in the small stuff.
Having a camera in my hand feels like an extension of my arm. Documenting is so ingrained in who I am, it always sounds wrong to call it work. I believe in GRATITUDE. I am grateful that you got to the end of this bio, if you are still with me… I would love to tell your story in a BEAUTIFUL and HONEST way. | <urn:uuid:034cba12-6355-4d4e-9d77-70dd3fe031dd> | CC-MAIN-2019-47 | https://sewellphotography.com/about/ | 2019-11-22T04:41:49Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-47/segments/1573496671239.99/warc/CC-MAIN-20191122042047-20191122070047-00065.warc.gz | en | 0.951062 | 391 |
In 2016, over 10 million people developed TB, and 1.7 million died of TB. Globally, 40% of these patients with TB did not get diagnosed or notified. In large part, this is because primary care providers, usually the first point of contact for most patients with TB, have little or no training in TB care, and are rarely engaged by TB care programs.
In many countries, patients begin seeking care from informal and private sector providers, and endure long, tortuous pathways to care. For example, in India, more than 50% of India’s TB patients seek care in the private sector, and private providers and GPs (i.e. family docs) are often the first point of care even for patients treated in the public sector. Most GPs in India are in the private sector and have not been engaged at scale by the TB control program.
Source: Madhukar Pai
Unfortunately, primary care practitioners, especially those in the private/informal sector, rarely adhere to national and international standards, and there is plenty of evidence that quality of TB care is often suboptimal. Cascade of care analyses and simulated patient studies show big gaps in quality of care. Only half of all patients with drug-sensitive TB get adequately diagnosed and treated, while less than one in five MDR-TB patients complete the cascade of care. Data also show that one in five children with TB fail to complete the cascade of care in some settings. Such broken care cascades result in emergence of drug-resistance, and also explains the high TB mortality rate in many settings.
Simulated patient (i.e. mystery client) studies in 3 countries show that most primary care providers are unable to diagnose TB and referral linkages to the national TB program (NTP) system are weak. In India, China and Kenya, only 28% to 45% of mystery patients were correctly managed by primary care providers. Even when a typical, textbook case of suspected TB was presented, most primary care providers were unable to diagnose TB or refer patients for adequate testing.
Thus,to reach the missing millions with TB, we must engage, educate and incentivize GPs and private practitioners. Education is an early, key step in engagement. With this in mind, in 2014, the first edition of Let's Talk TB was published online by GP Clinics, a publisher focused on education of GPs and primary care providers. This modest booklet contained 5 chapters on how to diagnose and treat TB.
With the addition of new material, a second edition was released in 2016, with 13 chapters. The third edition, released in 2018, has grown to include a total of 18 chapters, contributed by 20 experts and authors from many countries. The goal remains the same: to educate primary care providers on the best practices in TB diagnosis, treatment and follow-up. All articles are richly illustrated, and most include quizzes and CME questions for self learning. The 3rd edition includes new chapters on MDR-TB, adverse effects of TB drugs, adherence monitoring strategies, and nutritional support. There is also content on how to manage children with TB, care for patients co-infected with TB and HIV, how to read and interpret chest x-rays, and how to avoid common pitfalls in TB management.
By making the book free access, the authors and the publisher hope to make a positive contribution to improving quality of TB care at the primary care level, and hope the book will be widely read and shared.

I have recently got my hair colored-Balayege by Wella Professional. My hair stylist advised me to do bit of extra care for my hair by keeping them hydrated and nourished especially now when they are chemically treated. I took few extra treatments for my hair pre and post coloring them . I will be sharing all the details on my hair color in a separate post. While I was browsing on internet for best hydrating hair sprays I found Paul Mitchell Awapuhi Moisture Mist as must try.
One of my colleague gifted me Paul mitchell stuff year ago which was kept unopened since the day I got it. I just thought it to be a styling product or so, never that experimental with my hair so the products were resting unused. I looked up for the packet and spotted this Moisture Mist. I felt as I have rubbed out genie from a bottle checking in my wishlist.
I have been using this stuff since last two months. Here in today’s post i.e
Paul Mitchell Awapuhi Moisture Mist Review,Price
I will be sharing my experience with this hydrating mist that can be used both on hair and body.
Price~2000 INR for 250ml

AS CLAIMED BY BRAND
WHAT IT DOES
Deeply hydrates thirsty hair and revives dry, tired skin.
HOW IT WORKS
Lactic acid and Hawaiian awapuhi provide deep moisture and enhanced shine. Spirulina and plankton extracts rich in amino acids and vitamins make hair soft, hydrated and silky smooth, while sodium PCA balances moisture.
Reactivates styling products in hair, making it perfect for quick touch-ups.
My hair and skin are ridiculous dry. I feel bit uncomfortable sharing this but my hair tangle up at roots near my nape while sleeping because of dryness. Beside this while combing my hair, I can feel the dry loud sound which never existed before when my hair were softer and normal. Because my hair tangle up at roots, indicates the overall dryness of the hair cuticle. I wash my hair twice a week and follow up with regular conditioner. I am applying Macadamia deep conditioning Hair rejuvenating mask once in fortnight . Despite this,my hair will loose moisture and go extremely dry-post a day after hair wash. With impending summers, I could see them getting drier due to sun exposure. Plus I have got my hair colored. Considering all this , I have bought couple of hair products for ongoing care as well as for styling.
Paul Mitchell Awapuhi Moisture Mist is packaged in tall 8.5 floz white plastic bottle with turquoise blue accents and black lettering. Blue spray is covered with transparent plastic cap which keeps the opening hygienic. Pump works effectively and spritz out very fine mist.Though the mist can be used both on Hair and body, I mostly end up using it on my hair.
How I use?
- I hold the the bottle a scale length away from my hair and spray it on from mid shaft till the ends.After doing so , I just brush out my hair with my fingers to distribute the mist more evenly.
- At night, I spray it on hair roots towards my nape,massage a little to prevent morning tangles.
- I have also used it to catch fly- outs especially in dry weather.
- To enhance the results of styling product, I spray it pre styling . Wait for it to get absorbed completely before moving on to styling product.
- I have sometimes used it on my towel dry hair. My hair post drying feels softer,manageable,bouncy and healthy.
- For Blog purposes, I have tested it on my Body skin also. It hydrates and smoothens up dryness patches on my skin.
As you can see in FOTD above-It does not weigh down my hair. Post spraying hair with Awapuhi Moisture Mist-Neither they are greasy nor sticky. My hair are softer and silkier without a frizz or tangle. Somehow I have seen that it accentuates natural waves towards my hair ends.( Despite trying many times, I was not able to show in pictures the Before/After difference on my hair. But My hair definitely look healthy and hydrated from their normal self.)
It has lovely fragrance which is claimed to be of Hawaiian herb Awapuhi but I find mild notes of cucumber on top of sea kelp/sea breeze. Fragrance is refreshing and lasts for few hours in my hair.
VANILLA RATINGS 8/10
Paul Mitchell Awapuhi Moisture Mist Hydrating Spray replenishes moisture in my dry dull hair.My hair look vibrant and healthy than before. I use it on daily basis except on the days I wash my hair.On my body, I usually use it middle of the day to extend the hydration sometimes post shower also. I have not used it on my face for the fear of breaking out as my skin is quite erratic these days. Beside this I am kind of cynical on using a hair product on my face. It is expensive and not easily available in India. If you have dry ,dull ,damaged hair highly recommend this hydrating hair spray.
Have you tried Paul Mitchell Awapuhi Moisture Mist?
Any other favorite product from the brand!!
Do you know hydrating spray from any other brand-easily available in India?

I know I''m new here and I tend to keep my big mouth shut but this whole Caylee Anthony mess in Florida has got me pissed off! Adults have commited crimes against each other since the beginning of time and always will but when ya commit one against a defenseless 3yr old so that B*TCH mother can go out party and get wasted is where i draw the line. Caycee Anthony deserves the death penalty like no other, on top of killing her own child she wrapped her little body in a f**king garbage bag and threw it into the the woods and let her sit there for 4 months. It was like her daughter was just a piece of trash, when that waste of human flesh gets the death penalty they need to throw the lethal injection option out the window and make that dumb B*TCH suffer!!!!

Aug 25, 2019 Sports Comments Off on 1320 Heat is on today at South Dakota Circuit
Following all the hype, competitors will now have to produce with the 1320 heat International Drag race meet boosting off today from 09:00hrs at the South Dakota Circuit’s drag strip at Timehri.
Competitors were back and forth showing off their cars and their impressive times ahead of yesterday’s practice and qualification round but today’s race is a whole different story.
For the first time, cars have broken into 7 second bracket (unofficially) on the quarter mile with the absolute last run of the day featuring the rail car of T&T running a 7.9 second time.
Though the run featured a false start and an immediate disqualified time, today’s action brings about a mouth-watering prospect of speed.
Sheldon Bissessar, the Trinidadian who last year lost to the Team Mohamed’s GTR Goliath, admitted that he is back for revenge.
Still, there are an impressive array of machines for Bissessar and his rail car to fight through including the Transpacific Toyota Alteeza, Shawn Persaud’s Toyota Caldina as well as the ‘Mad Dog’ Toyota Supra to name a few.
And, then maybe he can reach the strip record holder known to many as ‘Godzilla,” the white Nissan GTR of Team Mohamed’s enterprise.
In addition to that, there are cash prizes for the fastest 11 and 12 second (DEL ICE CO) machines as well as fastest reaction time (Imran Auto Works) and best burn out (GT Tuners).
And as it stands, the club has confirmed readiness for the event with all the final put in place including reinforced emphasis on safety and crowd control.
“We saw what happed in the last instance with crowd control and we have surely put steps in place to correct that and to ensure that we have a great and safe day of racing. This is what it all boils down to. Leave all the talking for the line,” the club concluded in a statement.

The MIT Forum for Supply Chain Innovation and Infosys Global Risk Advisory Group announced that it has released preliminary findings from its global risk survey, led by MIT Professor David Simchi-Levi and conducted with Infosys President Ravi Kumar, co-leader of the Global Risk Group. The group will issue a full report on the results, titled, “The Risk of Complexity in a Digital Economy.”
In total, 70 participants completed the survey: 47 percent represented manufacturing companies, 37 percent the financial services industry, and 16 percent retail. Forty percent of the companies that responded were in Asia, 40 percent in Europe, and 20 percent in the United States.
By revenue, companies that responded were categorized as: revenue under $1 billion (62 percent); revenue of $1 billion to $10 billion (19 percent); and revenue greater than $25 billion (19 percent).
Ninety-two percent of companies surveyed think risk is changing due to the nature of the digital economy.
Key risk concerns: Complexity and cybersecurity
Companies that stated they believe ‘risk is changing’ were asked to rank their top risk concerns. Complexity, with a score of 5.73, was the number 1 concern, followed by: cybersecurity (5.04); business model disruption (4.28); globalization (4.04); more data (3.71); Internet of Things (3.04); and social media (2.85).
Companies were also asked if they thought risk would increase over the next two years. Ninety-five percent of respondents answered yes, with cybersecurity (10.65) and supply chain (8.36) ranked the highest of their risk concerns.
When companies were asked to rank their key concerns about cyber-risk, companies ranked loss of customer data (5.53) and reputational damage with customers (5.00) the highest.
Interestingly, 65 percent of respondents stated they have a good understanding of cybersecurity risk and ranked cybersecurity the highest (9.07) of the risk types increasing, followed by supply chain (7.13).
The data indicate that industry is concerned about increasing complexity in the digital economy, the increase risk of cybersecurity attacks and the risk of supply chain disruption, resulting in loss of market share.
From complex to chaotic
MIT Professor John Williams, who joined the MIT Forum and Infosys Risk Group in 2016, presented at the group’s February meeting on risk in the Internet of Things (IoT), cybersecurity, and complex and chaotic systems. Williams stated that “companies are at greater risk today due to increased complexity in systems, and I am concerned that more and more systems are chaotic but are being managed as if they are predictable and well understood.”
Williams and his group believe many business systems are being misclassified as simple systems when in fact they are either complex adaptive systems (never entering the same state again) or chaotic systems (systems where tiny initial perturbations grow exponentially) so that after their Luyapunov characteristic time they are unpredictable.
“I am excited to be part of the Risk Group,” Williams says. “It is very important for industry to understand and prepare for a more complex and digital world, where risk is increasing exponentially.”
Significant changes in risk strategies
Companies were asked if they expected their organizations to see changes in their “risk strategies” in the next two years. Fifty-eight percent of respondents stated they expect significant changes, with only 8 percent of companies expecting no changes. When companies were asked if their risk strategies were integrated with their business processes, only 7 percent stated they were well integrated.
Further, 62 percent of companies stated they believe data science can significantly help in quantifying and controlling the risks.
Risk Group shares research and industry use cases
“The data from our risk survey supports anecdotal evidence from industry that risk is not well understood and data-driven and integrated processes to expose risk are not widely implemented,” says David Simchi-Levi, founder of the Risk Group. “This is a huge concern in an economy that is increasingly complex and financially vulnerable to climate, supply chain, and cyber-risks. When companies experience a major disruption, they lose market share and, on average, take two years to recover fully from that disruption.”
“We have developed an advanced analytical method, Risk Exposure Index (REI), to expose and quantify risk for mitigation,” Simchi-Levi adds. “REI has been implemented at Ford Motor Company where it was used to analyze Ford’s global and complex multi-node supply chain. The results of the analysis were concerning, exposing two very small and low-level suppliers that could have disrupted Ford’s production with huge financial consequences. The results of the analysis were surprising, and the implementation of REI at Ford went on to win the 2015 Ford Engineering in Excellence Award. We thank Infosys and Ravi Kumar for supporting this risk initiative at MIT.”
Says Kumar: “We are currently at the intersection of the physical and digital world. In such an environment, cyber-physical products are going to get developed constantly, risk will be ever-changing and security will be of increasing concern. The MIT Global Risk Advisory Group, sponsored by Infosys, has been actively contributing towards research and building thought leadership with our clients in the area of risk. Our research has been further enhanced by leveraging Infosys’ strengths in advanced analytics and machine learning to help customers mitigate risk, gain competitive advantage and visibility in the industry.”
The Risk Group holds its next meeting Sept. 16.

Wangyue Tower, the Tower for Viewing the Moon is one of the major historical and cultural sites under state protection in Panzhihua city. It's a hexagonal minaret standing on a square base with a two story cornice. The old tower has a history of two hundred years and survived from the wind and rain and three great earthquakes during the Daoguang period of the Qing Dynasty. As an old mosque, Wangyue Tower is distinctive combination of Chinese architectural forms serving Islamic religious functions.
About 1,200 – 3,400 meters above sea level, Baiposhan nature preservation zone is located in Puwei, Miyi. The climate and vegetation there are vertically distributed with rich and conspicuous features into several types. The Yunnan pine is the major kind of trees in the virgin forest. Walking in the virgin forest you just feel like traveling in a mysterious and tranquil picture with flourishing azaleas and all kinds of other flowers and rare birds and animals.
Haita scenic area is situated at the headstream area of Longdong River. The scenic area is about 36 kilo meters from Miyi County. It is a basin surrounded by mountains, and is about 1,900 meters above sea level, covering an area of 30 square kilometers. "Haita", in Chinese, means "Sea and Tower". In this scenic area there is a man-made lake. It is called "Moon Sea" because of the moon-shaped appearance. The terrain of Haita looks like a huge ship. In order to prevent the ship from drifting away, people built a white tower with hexagonal eaves to tie the huge ship to. The Moon Sea and the white tower echo each other. So people call the place "Haita" (Sea and Tower).

Compiler Robert J. Conley’s encyclopedia on the Cherokees is not intended to be an exhaustive collection of information on the Cherokees but a quick reference tool. It achieves its goal; Conley, himself a Cherokee, covers many topics and people in this book.
The Cherokees are divided into three Federally recognized tribes or nations: the Cherokee Nation, the Eastern Band of Cherokees, and the United Keetoowah Band. There are others who claim to be Cherokees but are not members of any of the three recognized nations.
After a short introduction to the Cherokee people, Conley presents many entries in the typical A-to-Z encyclopedia format. He covers people, like chiefs, celebrities, contemporary Indian scholars, artists; places; and cultural and political terminology, like clan names and institutions. A sampling includes Joe Byrd, Sequoyah, Cherokee language, ghigau, Longhair, Anna Mitchell, Jane Osti, John Ross, Redbird Smith, Joe Thornton, Echota, medicine, removal, and many other entries. Most of the entries, which vary in length, are about people. There are many black and white illustrations throughout the book, and Conley provides see references (there is no cross-referencing). A bibliographical essay concludes the encyclopedia.
Robert J. Conley, a member of the United Keetoowah Band of Cherokees, has written more than seventy books. He has a bachelor’s and master’s degrees from Midwestern University, Wichita Falls, Texas and has taught at several colleges and universities as an English professor and as a director of Native American Studies. He is the author of The Cherokee Nation: A History (February 2008), Cherokee Medicine Man (2007), Sequoyah (2002), The Peace Chief (2001), Medicine War (2001), and many other works of fiction and nonfiction. This encyclopedia is highly recommended as a quick reference on the Cherokees to those interested in general Native American studies or the Cherokees in particular. Conley’s forthcoming The Cherokee Nation: A History will be complemented by this encyclopedia. | <urn:uuid:93ceb528-18e3-4551-81bf-7abd68febb3b> | CC-MAIN-2014-52 | http://www.curledup.com/cherokee.htm | 2014-12-23T00:49:30Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2014-52/segments/1418802777438.76/warc/CC-MAIN-20141217075257-00143-ip-10-231-17-201.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.931953 | 434 |

Opera for everyone
Here is a selection of outdated misconceptions, which should now be ignored…
The Grand Théâtre is too expensive!
No, there are prices to suit all budgets. This season, seat prices start at CHF 17.– at full price, thanks to a new partnership with la Mobilière, and for all performances! And then, there are other concessions such as “last minute”, “youth” (-50%) and “student” (-25%), which get you into our shows at low prices.
It’s always full!
The Grand Théâtre is not reserved only for season ticket holders, and you will find seats with an excellent view of the stage and remarkable acoustics in all seating categories of the Grand Théâtre. Most of the times, there will always be a seat available for you.
You have to be an connoisseur, I won’t understand anything!
Quite the opposite! Everybody can feel at ease. Our programmes, our conferences and our surtitling are there to give you the elements that will help you better understand the performances we present.
No time, young parents.
Would you like to take abreak for an evening? We’ll take care of everything. With the purchase of your ticket, babysitting is provided free of charge.

Women can be perhaps maybe not here for the intimate satisfaction.
You seriously as a potential partner, you need to change your whole attitude if you want anyone to take. Because to be honest, you currently noise and behave like a vintage pervert.
It really isn’t, im being serious. We control my urges mostly, or id have ended up venturing out and raping or something like that. Its simply all I see is every person else shagging around, plus the way that is only can too would be to pay it off, which gets way too high priced. In terms of perhaps perhaps not being here for the gratification that is sexual think thats just just what escorts ARE there for? I simply desire I experienced a girlfriend whom thought the exact same and may do things with and never having to spent a full weeks wages at the same time!
Can neither manage a account to at least one, nor have the right time and energy to visit one
Already do at great expense!
(Original post by Anonymous) just how do people deal with having a sex that is high, however when they can not get a gf?! And just how may I handle it?
Imagine if There Clearly Was Another Woman in Your Co Workers Life?
So what should you are doing if your married guy is showing signs and symptoms to be in deep love with you? Well first assess the specific situation. You need to begin to consider important concerns related to your self, the man that is married and their spouse. Is this one thing you need? Him, that is all fine and well if you are attracted to. If you were to think he could be in deep love with you are you currently need it, then chances are you eventually have actually two alternatives. He can be told by you the way you feel or you will need to bury the emotions and continue on with your daily life.
Being one other girl is a tremendously dangerous place in a man’s life that is married. Imagine the pain sensation of experiencing your beloved or moms and dad betray your trust and magnify that to 1000 times. Then go right ahead if you can withstand being the reason two people break up. This is when you really need to ask some relevant questions regarding the person along with his spouse. Will they be in the center of a breakup? Do they usually have a healthier wedding? May be the girl seeing other individuals also? If most of these responses appear to point out a wedding on the point of breaking, then it could perhaps not be so incredibly bad to begin dating a married guy.
You might think “Eh?? ” When reading that, but my solution for a long time was to employ escorts, ‘models’ and also girls wanting to get pregnant on sperm donor sites!! Trouble utilizing the first couple of options at the least is it is/becoming very costly, and also the latter option there isnt a lot of women shopping for the ‘natural’ method these times.
I can go several times over the course of a few hours, usually whoever im with gets too tired or sore to keep going and sometimes im still not even completely satisfied when I do have sex. As soon as im finished though, im ok for a fortnight, then again begin to obtain the urges once again before long and feeling horny, to the stage all I am able to think of is naked ladies and sex that is having. Within the final end I have more and much more frustrated,, and end up investing in sex all over again, plus the period begins over. Ive attempted sites that are dating. Ive attempted hookup sites like tinder and pof, but We never have messaged right right straight back by anybody, allow alone really talk with someone! So when away, noone is interested in me personally, and im exactly that friendly teddy bear girls will chat too, but just as a buddy. So once again, we wind up being forced to find somebody requiring the money and spending money on intercourse.
When I said, that gets expensive though with escorts and models frequently costing https://www.camsloveaholics.com/cam4-review between ?60-120 one hour, but i cannot assist myself! With no, masturbation simply does not cut it any longer
Their not the only person.
All i am going to state is as you can, not just women but guys as well-the more people you know the better chance you have that you need to get out more and meet as many new people. That knows, some guy buddy may know a solitary woman and set you right up. Does take time it is ought to be well well worth the time and effort! | <urn:uuid:84ccc502-5e33-4bb6-ad23-7302528ca17f> | CC-MAIN-2021-04 | https://www.ultimateweddingexperiences.com/2020/08/06/the-high-sexual-drive-although-not-gf-3/ | 2021-01-17T18:45:52Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2021-04/segments/1610703513144.48/warc/CC-MAIN-20210117174558-20210117204558-00054.warc.gz | en | 0.972031 | 958 |

Finds innovative ways to utilize biomass and plastic waste resources for production of value-added products
Professor Foston’s research program seeks to develop innovative and novel routes to exploit and utilize lignocellulosic biomass, taking advantage of materials involved in industries such as agriculture, papermaking, and forestry products. His primary research themes are:
- Sustainable conversion of biomass into chemicals using liquid-phase, heterogeneous catalysis.
- Interfacing the catalytic depolymerization of biomass with microbial utilization.
- Understanding how plant cell respond to mechanical stimulus
He is also faculty fellow in the NSF STC: Center for Engineering Mechanobiology. The center will train a new generation of scientists and engineers in the emerging discipline of Mechanobiology, specifically how to use mechanical force to engineer plant cell walls and how plant cell wall respond to mechanical force.
In 2012, Marcus Foston became a professor in the Department of Energy, Environmental & Chemical Engineering at Washington University in St. Louis. He received his PhD in Polymer Chemistry in the Material Science and Engineering Department at the Georgia Institute of Technology in 2008.

May 13– As hundreds of thousands of tourists flock to the Washington, D.C. area for their summer vacations and residents join them on city streets and at public gatherings, the Federal Aviation Administration has a clear message for everyone: Leave Your Drone at Home.
The FAA today announced a public outreach campaign for the region around Washington, D.C. to reinforce the message that the city itself, and communities within a 30-mile radius of Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport, are a “No Drone Zone.” The effort includes furnishing outreach materials to other federal, state and local partners around the National Capital Region. The agency wants to ensure residents and tourists all understand that flying an unmanned aircraft in this area for any purpose is against the law.
Rules put in place after the 9/11 attacks establish “national defense airspace” over the D.C. area and limit aircraft operations – including unmanned aircraft – to those with an FAA and Transportation Security Administration authorization. Violators may face stiff fines and criminal penalties.
The bottom line: Enjoy your visit to the Nation’s Capital. Bring your family, your cameras and plenty of sunscreen. Just don’t bring your drone.

4 US 225 Commonwealth v. Addison
4 U.S. 225
4 Dall. 225
1 L.Ed. 810
Supreme Court of Pennsylvania.
March Term, 1801
THE attorney-general made a motion, for a rule to show cause, why an Information should not be granted against the defendant, the President of the Courts of Common Pleas, in the fifth circuit; on the affidavit of J. C. Lucas, an associate Judge of the Court of Common Pleas of Alleghany county, stating that he had been wilfully prevented by Mr. Addison, from delivering his sentiments to the grand jury, after Mr. Addison, as President, had concluded his charge, &c.
In support of the motion, the attorney-general cited 1 Reeves. Hist. Eng. Law, 201. c. 4. 2 Ibid. 2. Jacob's L. Dict. tit. 'Chapitre.' 4 Bl. Com. 303. Const. Penn. art. 5. s. 4. 6 Mod. 96.
But, by the COURT:
We are, unanimously, of opinion, that the case does not present to our consideration an indictable offence; and, of course, it is not a case, in which an information ought to be granted. But we are (with the same unanimity) of opinion, that every Judge has a right, and, emphatically, that it is his duty, to deliver his sentiments upon every subject that occurs in Court. We add, so far as the expression of our sense of decorum may have weight, that we think, it would be indecent and improper, in any presiding Judge, to attempt to prevent his associates from the exercise of this right; from the performance of this duty. | <urn:uuid:16f591f1-0005-417c-b866-2fb7ef21cd88> | CC-MAIN-2016-18 | http://openjurist.org/4/us/225/commonwealth-v-addison | 2016-05-06T20:42:53Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2016-18/segments/1461862134822.89/warc/CC-MAIN-20160428164854-00061-ip-10-239-7-51.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.958908 | 368 |
We’ve all had times when we can’t recall a conversation someone else swears we had. Often, one person in a relationship is more adamant about their memory than the other person. Usually, those mini-disputes are minor blips in an intact relationship. But what if it’s no longer an intact relationship? What if the “he said/ she said” dispute becomes part of family law proceedings?
One party might be tempted to secretly record their conversations with their ex-spouse or partner. But, is that lawful, and even if it is, is it a good idea?
Is it lawful to intercept a phone conversation?
The short answer is no. It is a federal offence to intercept (or tap) a phone conversation or other form of telecommunication. There are, of course, exceptions for ASIO, the police and similar organisations, but those exceptions wouldn’t apply in a family law situation.
Similarly, Australian law generally prohibits the recording of a private conversation between other people, to which the person doing the recording was not a party.
But what if you’re a party to the conversation?
Whether or not it’s lawful to secretly record a conversation (phone or otherwise) to which the person doing the recording is a party depends on the State or Territory in which the recording takes place. That is, such secret recording are permissible in Victoria, Queensland and the Northern Territory. However, it is prohibited in the other States and Territories – the ACT, New South Wales, Tasmania, South Australia and Western Australia.
The penalties for breaching the laws about intercepting or secretly recording a conversation vary, but can include paying damages to the other person and a term of imprisonment.
Can a secret recording be used as evidence in the Family Court?
Again, that will depend on where the recording took place and whether it was lawful in that State or Territory. In other words, if the secret recording took place in Victoria, Queensland or the NT and was, therefore, lawful, that recording could be used as evidence in family law proceedings.
However, if the recording was made in one of the States or Territories in which it is prohibited (ACT, NSW, Tasmania, SA and WA), the Court would have discretion whether or not to admit the recording into evidence. The Court would weigh up the benefit to the determination of the case in admitting the recording evidence, compared to the detriment to the parties and the justice of the case in allowing one of them to rely on illegally obtained evidence. Further, just because the illegal secret recording is admitted into evidence, the person who made the recording may still be liable to prosecution or damages for their offence.
Even if it’s lawful, should you do it?
The answer to this question will, of course, depend on the particular circumstances of the individual case. In a case where there are serious, regular disagreements about who said what and when, perhaps because drug or alcohol abuse or significant mental illness are involved, secretly recording conversations might be justified, in those jurisdictions where it is legal to do so.
However, even in cases where the secret recording of conversations might be tempting or may even seem warranted, before embarking on that course of action, the person wishing to do the recording should consider the future impact of considerable breakdown of trust in their relationship with the other person. It would be difficult, if not impossible, to continue to trust someone if you find out they have been recording their conversations with you without your knowledge. Ongoing trust between a separating couple is particularly important where children are involved and the couple need to share a parenting relationship into the future.
A middle ground option to secretly recording conversations with an ex-partner, regardless of whether or not it is lawful to do so in the particular jurisdiction, would be to make detailed notes of the conversations, as soon as possible after the conversations have ended. Such notes would be of significant benefit in preparing evidence for any family law proceedings, without jeopardising trust by secretly recording the conversations.
Whether or not it is lawful to secretly record a conversation, phone or otherwise, with an ex-partner depends on the State or Territory in which the recording is made. If the recording is unlawful, not only is there a risk that it will not be admitted into evidence in family law proceedings, the person making the recording could be liable to both civil damages and criminal prosecution. Even if it is lawful to secretly record a conversation with an ex, it isn’t necessarily a good idea to do so. A safer course of action might be to make notes of, rather than secretly record, the conversation.

Self-congratulatory Journalism - Hot Copy #9
This is Hot Copy, and I’m Del Marbrook.
Historians would know for sure, but I’d be willing in my ignorance to make a small wager that a self-congratulatory society is unhealthy. Sure, we’re always selling each other snake oil, and maybe in a market economy it’s unavoidable, but too much of anything has got to be bad.
You remember President Bush telling FEMA Director Michael Brown, “You’re doin’ a heckuva job, Brownie,“ while New Orleans was drowning right in front of them? The President then went on to say—how many times is it now?—that everything’s going just swell in Iraq.
The spectacle of a bunch of suits who have just stepped out of private planes and helicopters standing around slapping each other on the back and telling each other how wonderful they are in the midst of human misery signaled to the country that something had gone badly wrong.
Unfortunately the press corps didn’t pick up on that signal until a relative newcomer, Anderson Cooper, followed his gut and interrupted Senator Mary Landrieu’s grotesquely inappropriate litany of praise for all the officials who had done next to nothing to relieve New Orleans of its pain. Here’s what Cooper said:
Excuse me, Senator, I'm sorry for interrupting. I haven't heard that, because, for the last four days, I've been seeing dead bodies in the streets here in Mississippi. And to listen to politicians thanking each other and complimenting each other, you know, I got to tell you, there are a lot of people here who are very upset, and very angry, and very frustrated.
And when they hear politicians slap -- you know, thanking one another, it just, you know, it kind of cuts them the wrong way right now, because literally there was a body on the streets of this town yesterday being eaten by rats because this woman had been laying in the street for 48 hours. And there's not enough facilities to take her up.
Do you get the anger that is out here?
And with that burst of spontaneity Anderson Cooper changed the course, at least for now, of American television, and possibly print journalism as well. The media had become the ugly toady of power and privilege, and Cooper was saying, in effect, Excuse me, you turkeys, for breaking into this photo opportunity, but there’s real suffering out there, in case you care.
Videotaping and writing about a gaggle of stiffs congratulating each other for once more horn-swoggling the people, with the media’s slavish help, have become all too familiar. The staged event is cheap to cover—it doesn’t cost much logistically or intellectually—and its inevitable corollary is the way television pats itself on the back again and again for the wretched job it’s doing.
You have noticed this, haven’t you? Your instructors are talking about it to you, aren’t they? You have heard them say, The best news team in television, the best commentators, the best... blah, blah, blah. We’re sick of it. If they were so good, why weren’t they questioning the premises for the Iraq war instead of beating the war drums? If they were so good, why weren’t they able to find anyone to calculate that the war would cost, not the $50 billion that Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld estimated offhandedly, but as much as the two-trillion-dollar cost we now calculate. That’s right. Two trillion dollars, $6,300 a year for every single taxpayer in the country. And rising every day. Where was this self-congratulatory press when we really needed a discussion about cost and just who would foot the bill? Was it so hard to discover that we would pay the bill by indebting our great grandchildren to China? What was so hard about figuring that out?
Night after night this self-congratulatory electronic press trots out the same tired experts from the same handful of hothouses to explain everything under the sun to us when we know perfectly well that some of these experts now telling us how badly things have gone wrong were the same ones who were telling us three years ago how invading Iraq was a good thing, a smart thing, a visionary thing. Where is their shame? Where is the shame of the hack editors and producers who drag these talking heads out of their cubicles to tell us what to make of things? Can you honestly say you have ever been enlightened by one of those retired generals explaining the war to you? Can you honestly say you’ve learned something useful? Of course not, because above all they’re taking care of number one. They’re not going to offend anybody who might butter their bread for them. They’re not going to criticize their former buddies and bosses. They’re just going to find ways to repeat themselves, when they haven’t said anything insightful in the first place.
This isn’t journalism. It’s theater. It’s cronyism. And above all, it’s cheap, because it doesn’t cost anywhere near as much as getting fresh facts and perspectives.
But, you know what, it’s a lot better than it was three years ago. It’s a lot better than it was before Anderson Cooper spoke for the entire population when he suggested to Senator Landrieu that maybe there was a slight disconnect between herself and reality.
And the reason that what Cooper did resonated so powerfully with the industry and its customers is that we all knew, instantly, that we had been watching this kind of sleight-of-hand until it had made us sick. Cooper simply spoke for all of us, and it could no longer be ignored. Shortly after that incident his own network, CNN, began to find some backbone. It began to ask spunky questions about the war, about politics, about the way our lives get messed up while the people who messed them up stand around and tell us how swell everything is.
You can look at what Cooper did in several ways. You can say he lost his cool and crossed the line into editorializing. You can say he merely pointed out the elephant in the room. You can say he engaged in populist journalism. Or you can say, as I do, that there are times when a journalist must say, Excuse me, sir, or madam, but this dog won’t hunt no more.
Remember, always remember, a dysfunctional, dishonest government didn’t get that way by itself. It got that way because you, the Fourth Estate, let it get that way. That’s why watching the same fatheads who condoned the Iraq war three years ago blabbering knowledgeably on television now about how badly it has gone is so frustrating. And it’s dishonest. It should be pointed out that they’ve changed their tune, and they should be asked why their personal journey from one viewpoint to another should not be held up to public scrutiny, inasmuch as they’ve been marketed to us as experts. But instead, night after night, they’re invited to yak knowingly while most of us remember what they said three years ago, even if the hapless TV anchors don’t. This isn’t journalism. It’s putting on the dog. It’s a game to convince you that you’ve learned something when you haven’t.
You are discussing all this in your journalism classes, right?
And are you discussing the make-nice, aren’t-I-cute behavior of the television anchors whose artful and more often awkward asides regularly cross the line from reportage to commentary to editorial? For example, the other day I watched a financial reporter say that the Dow Industrial Average had peaked at 12,000 points. Oh that’s nice, that’s what we like to hear, said the anchor. She could have said, What about the S&P 500 or Nasdaq? She could have asked if this means that the market had fully recovered from the 2000 recession. She could have said any number of helpful things, but instead she chose to be a silly cheerleader.
Now let’s turn to an equally difficult issue. If you aren’t discussing these questions in your journalism classes, if you aren’t exploring the reasons for these shortcomings, well then, as good journalists you need to ask yourselves why. And, more important, you need to ask your instructors and professors why. What, you may say, are you kidding, and risk bad grades and not getting their recommendations? Oh sure. And you’d be right to react that way. But still, if we’re going to have a decent Fourth Estate, the kind that makes the republic work, we’re going to have to face these issues and ask why they’re not being faced.
We’re going to have to look at the realities of the media industry, where newspapers are cutting back their staffs and using more and more canned reportage and punditry, more and more cheap infotainment, where networks are reducing the air time for news and cutting back on news coverage in the interests of their shareholders. And if your instructors are not helping you delve into these questions, then you need to raise questions about why they’re not helping you. The answers won’t be hard to find, I assure you. Money is the reason. The schools need the goodwill of the industry, of its shareholders. But that doesn’t justify them in not preparing you for the harsh realities of the industry, does it?
And this leads us directly to one of the toughest and most unasked questions in all of American journalism. Here it is. What is a moral profit margin? That’s right, when have you ever heard that question raised and seriously addressed in the popular media? Overwhelmingly the proponents of globalization, with all its competition, would answer the question by insisting that business must take all the profit it can get, and then some, in order to compete, and that might mean you will have no pension or health benefits. And when I say business, of course I include your future employers, the media. And if that definition, already widely popular, is accepted, it might mean the country won’t have much of a middle class to buy what business is selling. This is the question that will shape your lives. It is the question that will determine what kind of journalism you practice, what kind of journalism your bosses will let you practice.
I think you get the drift. I think you see why it’s not exactly the hottest topic in the media or journalism schools. But if you’re not thinking about it, you’re not thinking well enough to be good journalists, and maybe your should ask your school for a refund.

Apple iPhone 5 just released! New York Knicks' Iman Shumpert shatters a new iPhone 5 in an attempt to see how it performs as a basketball.

BEST OF MAXIM
AROUND THE WEB
What are two of the hottest topics around the Big Apple right now?You guessed it! Iman Shumpert's knee injury rehab, and the release of Apple's IPhone 5. Our funny friends at "The NOC" give an inside look at both in their latest production.In this spoof review, Shumpert examines the IPhone's features and abilities...as they relate to the physical game of basketball...

Previously on That NBA Lottery Pick, we mentioned that New York Knicks star Carmelo Anthony was in Thailand with his wife, LaLa.Well, Carmelo has continued his jet-setting ways in the past week. Check out this picture from the folks over at Beyond The Buzzer of Melo chillin' in a cabana in Puerto Rico:For the third straight year, Anthony was on the island to do press for his...
In light of the AARP Knicks New York Knicks recent rumor mill possibly acquiring Sheed or K-Mart — and in the process getting considerably older — it’s nice to hear some sort of noise about Iman Shumpert’s possible return from his horrid ACL injury last season. Via The New York Times: All signs Saturday [...]
The iPhone 5 just dropped but Knicks Iman Shumpert has a better use for it than talking, texting and flossing for your friends with it. Instead, Shump wants to see what type of basketball-like qualities it has. I think that may have hurt my heart. ::giggle:: Random, doesn’t Iman remind you of 80′s rapper Big [...]
For those of you still trying to score an IPhone 5, you may want to look away from this video since New York Knicks guard Iman Shumpert dunks one into a million pieces.This video come courtesy of our friends at Network of Champions in a segment called, "Will It Dunk?":
Stephon Marbury says he doesn't believe Amar'e Stoudemire and Carmelo Anthony can win together. He also had some interesting things to say about the Knicks' ownership.
Former Knicks’ guard and current TV analyst for MSG, Walt “Clyde” Frazier, had some opinions to lend about the current state of the New York Knicks and one of those opinions involves Carmelo Anthony becoming more like LeBron James.
The belief is that Carmelo needs to become more of a two-way player, or a jack of all trades, much like LeBron James has been in Miami, or even...
The visions that Knicks fans had of the Larry O’Brien trophy over a year ago when the team signed Amar’e Stoudemire and then acquired Carmelo Anthony have all but disappeared. After more than a season of sub-.500 ball together, it’s starting to look like the Knicks need more than just ‘Melo and Amar’e to contend for a title. In fact, many wonder if they will have to get...
Knicks guard Iman Shumpert tweeted a photo of himself and the original Queen Bee, Lil Kim. Maybe they’ll jump on a track together. In the meantime, check out his latest, “Do you love me” Check out his soundcloud to hear more. photos via Instagram
Between the Denver Nuggets abusing the New York Knicks front office during the Carmelo Anthony blockbuster trade to turning Raymond Felton to Andre Miller, not to mention all the picks, and of course joined to D-12 trade talks to snag Andre Iguodala, there stood one man.

Here are the basic ones from the kitchen, whether it be a grand affair in the home or a tiny space on a table in a dorm room.
Put the noodles in AFTER the water is boiling. Not before.
Don’t try and frost a hot cake out of the oven. It will just be upsetting. Wait ‘til it cools.
Squeeze out your sponge after every use and have some sort of draining stand for it to sit on and air out or you will have ‘stinky’ sponge hands every time you use it.
Cut and slice things on a cutting board, carefully away from your body and all extremities. Don’t slice the bagel in your hand with the bagel braced against your body. Think about it.
Use a different cutting board for meat than you do for vegetables, preferably a smooth unpitted one. This will limit cross contamination and help keep your food safe and your guests alive.
All dishes should be washed in hot, soapy water or a dish washer on a regular basis. Not weekly. You WILL attract bugs to your kitchen, no matter where you live, if you do not.
Follow the directions on the box, no matter what you are attempting to make or how sure you are that you are right and the manufacturer who made the product is wrong.
Baking soda and baking powder are two different things and should not be used interchangeably.
Tbsp.-is a Tablespoon and is the big one.
tsp.-is a teaspoon and is the little one.
A ‘cup’ when cooking is a specific measurement, and not just any old mug or cup filled to the brim.
Pie crusts can be just as good coming out of a box, and you will have so much more hair after your pie is done, as opposed to trying to make one your own.
An egg-separator can easily be an egg shell. You don’t need to buy one.
Kitchen tools you will need and use all the time-vegetable peeler, cheese grater, egg timer (not just for eggs), potato masher, can opener, a really good skillet with a lid, a really good sauce pan with a lid, a metal spatula, a whisk, microwavable dishes with fitting lids.
Waffle irons can be your best friends in a collage dorm room, and there is no better way to make friends on a Saturday morning in a co-ed dorm, than to be the bringer of fresh waffles.
A microwave should be clean inside. No, really, I’m not kidding.
Always keep eggs, fresh fruit, fresh vegetables, milk and cheese in your fridge and you will eat well.
Pay attention to all the food you are preparing, whether it is for you to eat or for someone else. Feeding yourself well is self-preservation. Feeding others well is an act of love and friendship and should never be taken lightly. | <urn:uuid:a37f05e6-0420-4011-9144-bcd1ffd814c5> | CC-MAIN-2022-49 | https://kitchenkickstart.com/basic-kitchen-tips-want-pass-son/ | 2022-11-30T14:30:21Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2022-49/segments/1669446710764.12/warc/CC-MAIN-20221130124353-20221130154353-00693.warc.gz | en | 0.936359 | 626 |

Uh-oh! We guess she didn't take too kindly to some of the speculation made about her comments!
Shortly after Britney Spears released her music video for Hold It Against Me, Katy Perry recently took some - what many perceived to be - digs at artists who blatantly fill them with product placement via Twitter!
However, what she wrote was apparently not meant specifically for Brit Brit, or as she now
backtracks explains, anyone in particular!
Dear tabloid media aka FILTH: pls note I expressed an overall feeling bout product placement, their roles in vids & the art of them being…complimenting or sticking out. Most, if not ALL popsters welcome deals w/products 2 offset costs of big budget vids in these recessional…music industry times. I'VE used them in MY vids before & am happy 2b able 2 make a better vid because of. Once AGAIN, stop pitting artists..against artist for ur sensational satisfaction & stick to what ur best @: lying, gossiping, exaggerating & overall lending a hand 2 the……deterioration of a generation.
Wowza! Some pretty serious words!
You know we love you, bb, but we don't think it's particularly fair for you to tweet about "some artists" and expect your readers to not wonder of whom you're speaking!

The new 'Need For Speed' trailer is here and provides an extended look at the upcoming adaptation of the classic video game. You can watch the trailer above and then go behind-the-scenes with us and star Aaron Paul, who took us into the film's editing room to give us a closer look at how they pulled off some of the scenes biggest stunts (spoiler alert: no CGI).
Considering that 2015 is looking like one of the biggest movie years in the history of cinema, it's surprising that studios aren't as afraid of 'Star Wars: Episode 7' as they were of 'Star Wars: The Phantom Menace.' Currently 'Episode 7' will open December 18, the same day as 'Warcraft,' and now 'Mission: Impossible 5' has announced that they'll be hitting theaters a week later on Christmas Day.
In what could be the strangest modern development in the comic-book universe, a poster has been revealed that hints at a 'Wonder Twins' movie starring two veterans of 'That '70s Show,' Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunis. There are a couple options for what this could mean, but it's more than likely we're being Justin Biebered.
Though the franchise was successful under Pierce Brosnan's run, when Daniel Craig became James Bond the series got a new life and a rebooting, with 'Casino Royale' starting just as Bond received his license to kill. The series has done a lot of work to integrate previous Bond lore with its more modern approach (and recently re-introduced Miss Moneypenny), but now it seems the path is clear for Bond's most famous nemesis Blofeld to return to the series.
The two names that have popped up most as the contenders for the lead roles in 'Jurassic World' have been Bryce Dallas Howard and Josh Brolin. But while Howard recently confirmed her involvement, it appears that Brolin won't be making a trip to Isla Nubar, and his shoes may be filled by Chris Pratt.
Though the film struggled to get the cast signed on, it looks like the 'Entourage' movie is heading forward with everyone in tow, and now the film is looking to cast its leading lady. Word is that model/actress Kate Upton is up for the part.
The news broke that 'Batman Vs. Superman' was looking for someone to play Robin only two days ago, and now there seems to be a leading contender for the role. 'Girls' star Adam Driver is being considered to play Batman's sidekick Robin, who's now going by the more badass name Nightwing.
On top of yesterday's news that 'Batman vs. Superman' is possibly looking for a Robin, word has leaked that they may want to get that much closer to the 'Justice League' goalpost by introducing Wonder Woman into the mix, and three actresses are currently in contention for the role.
Though it isn't due out until July 2015, it seems that Zack Snyder's 'Batman vs. Superman' (or whatever they eventually call it) has done some shooting, and is now auditioning people for the film. The latest scoop is that the film might feature Dick Grayson, also known as Robin or Nightwing.

“I For One Welcome Our New Robot Overlords”
Doug Klein, Union College
Should you be allowed to use genetic testing and engineering to ensure that your baby is not pre-disposed to certain genetically-linked illnesses? How about choosing the gender of your baby? Or eye color? Or height; strength; musical talent; intelligence?
What about machines? How intelligent can we make them? How intelligent should we make them? Can we make them intelligent enough that they can go on and make themselves more intelligent – sometimes called “the singularity”? Should we?
Science and engineering seems to know no bounds, and is rapidly developing the ability to do all this and more. Since there were humans, Humanists have speculated about the consequences of human actions – think Prometheus, Adam and Eve, through Frankenstein, or the Modern Prometheus and Carl Kapek’s robot play, “R.U.R.” In 2000, Bill Joy, the co-founder of Sun Microsystems, wrote an article for Wired, called “Why the Future Doesn’t Need Us.” In it he argues that technology will make humans obsolete. The Joy article (ironically named) is worth a look. Here is a response to Joy by John Seely Brown and Paul Duguid. You can decide which side has the stronger case.
All this points to the enduring question, “Do We Control Technology or Does Technology Control Us?” Wouldn’t it be ironic if the defining feature of humans – the use of tools – proves to be our undoing. Or, as Elizabeth Kolbert glumly concludes in her 2006 book, Field Notes from a Catastrophe, “It may seem impossible to imagine that a technologically advanced society could choose, in essence, to destroy itself, but that is what we are now in the process of doing.”
And so the question: What more can the Humanities contribute to tame this whirlwind? (Whatever it is contributing now does not seem to be enough.) Or is the role of the Humanities just to keep us distracted, content, and out of the way?

Eric Drexler, Engines of Creation
Assemblers will be able to make virtually anything from common materials without labor, replacing smoking factories with systems as clean as forests. They will transform technology and the economy at their roots, opening a new world of possibilities. They will indeed be engines of abundance.
Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi, “The Future of Happiness,” in James Brockman, ed., The Next Fifty Years: Science in the First Half of the Twenty-First Century, pp. 102-103.
In the past, we were like passengers on the slow coach of evolution. Now, evolution is more like a rocket hurtling through space, and we are no longer passengers, but its pilots. What kind of human beings are we going to create?
Kevin Kelly, What Technology Wants, p. 12
[The technium is] a self-reinforcing system of creation. At some point in its evolution, our system of tools and machines and ideas became so dense in feedback loops and complex interactions that it spawned a bit of independence. It began to exercise some autonomy.
Pandora’s Seed: The Unforeseen Cost of Civilization, Spencer Wells, pp. 52-53
We now come to the crux of what this book is all about. When our ancestors created agriculture around 10,000 years ago, they had no idea of what other changes they were setting in motion. They were simply responding to an immediate need for more reliable sources of food during a time of climatic stress, obviously making decisions about the future based on the near term rather than how events might ultimately play out. … Instead of relying on nature’s plenty, they were creating it for themselves. By doing so they divorced themselves – and us – from millions of years of evolutionary history, charting a new course into the future without a map to guide them through the pitfalls that would appear over the subsequent ten millennia.

So, here we are, back at the convention center. We’ve been on a journey, a return journey, of 13.7 billion years. I hope you agree that this is a powerful story. And it’s a story in which humans play an astonishing and creative role. But it also contains warnings. Collective learning is a very, very powerful force, and it’s not clear that we humans are in charge of it. | <urn:uuid:9bf2bf8b-de50-402f-bded-7bc0c5a05e96> | CC-MAIN-2017-17 | http://humeng2013.thatcamp.org/philosophy-technology-session/ | 2017-04-29T05:23:27Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2017-17/segments/1492917123276.44/warc/CC-MAIN-20170423031203-00469-ip-10-145-167-34.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.944151 | 1,085 |

The fragment antigen-binding (Fab fragment) is a region on an antibody that binds to antigens. It is composed of one constant and one variable domain of each of the heavy and the light chain. These domains shape the paratope — the antigen-binding site — at the amino terminal end of the monomer. The two variable domains bind the epitope on their specific antigens.
In an experimental setting, Fc and Fab fragments can be generated in the laboratory. The enzyme papain can be used to cleave an immunoglobulin monomer into two Fab fragments and an Fc fragment. The enzyme pepsin cleaves below hinge region, so a F(ab')2 fragment and a pFc' fragment is formed. Recently another enzyme for generation of F(ab')2 has been commercially available. The enzyme IdeS (Immunoglobulin degrading enzyme from Streptococcus pyogenes, trade name FabRICATOR) cleaves IgG in a sequence specific manner at neutral pH. The F(ab')2 fragment can be split into two Fab' fragments by mild reduction.
The variable regions of the heavy and light chains can be fused together to form a single-chain variable fragment (scFv), which is only half the size of the Fab fragment, yet retains the original specificity of the parent immunoglobulin.

The aim of Rwanda to become Africa’s technology hub is well on the way as Mara Group launched two smartphones describing them as the first “Made in Africa” models. The Mara X and Mara Z will use Google’s Android operating system and cost $190 and $130 respectively.
Mara Group CEO Ashish Thakkar said it was targeting customers willing to pay more for quality. “This is the first smartphone manufacturer in Africa,” Thakkar told Reuters after touring the company alongside President Paul Kagame of Rwanda.
Mara Phones just opened the first high tech, quality, affordable smartphone manufacturing plant in Rwanda. @MaraPhones strongly believe the Smartphone manufacturing will bring huge pride to the African continent being locally made in Africa.#MadeinRwanda #MadeinAfrica pic.twitter.com/mhPWTrSWw3
— Mara Phones (@MaraPhones) October 7, 2019
“We are actually the first who are doing manufacturing in Rwanda. We are making the motherboards, we are making the sub-boards during the entire process,” he said. “There are over 1,000 pieces per phone.”
Thakker said the plant had cost $50 million and could make 10,000 phones per day.
Mara Group hopes to profit from the African Continental Free Trade Agreement, a pact aimed at forming a 55-nation trade bloc, to boost sales across Africa, Thakkar said.
The agreement is due to begin trading in July next year, aiming to unite 1.3 billion people and create a $3.4 trillion economic bloc. But it is still in the very early stages and no timelines have been agreed for abolishing tariffs.
Kagame said he hoped the phone would increase Rwanda’s smartphone usage, currently at around 15%. “Rwandans are already using smartphones but we want to enable many more. The introduction of Mara phones will put smartphones ownership within reach of more Rwandans,” Kagame said. | <urn:uuid:f4a7509e-02b6-4b4d-b09f-47c31224d555> | CC-MAIN-2020-24 | https://www.techawkng.com/2019/10/10/rwanda-moves-to-become-africas-tech-hub-as-it-launches-first-made-in-africa-smartphones/ | 2020-06-06T10:06:58Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2020-24/segments/1590348513230.90/warc/CC-MAIN-20200606093706-20200606123706-00286.warc.gz | en | 0.952664 | 424 |

Owen County 4-H Fishing Team News
4-H Fishing Team Sponsor
On June 10, 11 and 12th, the 4-H Fishing Team went on a three-day camping trip at Beechwood Campground. There was fishing, boating, games, crafts, swimming and lots of good food. The theme night was “swamp.”
We ate catfish, frog legs, worm pudding and all the sides. They crawled like alligators through 20 gallons of JELL-O and relayed with swamp gooey stuff, just to mention a few swamp things.
The first catch of the trip was by Jerry Phillips. The largest catch, with a largemouth bass, was Dustin Freeman and the most inches was caught by Makayla Freeman.
Results from the games included: largest bubble blown – Autumn Lewis, second – J.J. Kinney; snowman sandcastle winners – Autumn Lewis and J.J. Kinney, second – Maryrose Farmer and Elizabeth Lewis and third – Makayla and Dustin Freeman and Jerry Phillips.
The three-legged sack race winners were, first place – Dustin Freeman and J.J. Kinney; second – Anna Michalow, Autumn Lewis and Tabby Sandline.
There were also boat wars, complete with water balloons, snowball fight with flour, jelly bean relays and several others.
It was a really good camping trip. Plans are being made to go camping again the end of July.
Boat war winners – Mayflower which included Dustin Freeman, Tabby Sandline, David Koch, Alana Michalow, Makayla Freeman and Rebecca Cain.
Jacob Seibert and Chad St. John were winners in the pudding eating contest where you fed your buddy.

New York City principals are up in arms over a new plan that gives bonus points this year to high schools based on graduates going to college — but doesn’t count those who join the military.The smallest problem here is the "only college counts" mentality.
Department of Education officials met with a group of principals last week to explain changes in Progress Reports coming out this fall. Schools that send more kids to community or baccalaureate colleges within six to 18 months will get extra credit.
When a principal asked about points for grads who choose to enlist in the armed forces, he was shot down.
“The military isn’t college. It doesn’t count,” the group was told.

The Miltary Isn't Good Enough For Dept of Education
Like Rodney Dangerfield, military service gets no respect: | <urn:uuid:6ae3a2d4-81cd-46fd-baf9-d7ae0e1b42fa> | CC-MAIN-2016-07 | http://rightontheleftcoast.blogspot.com/2012/03/miltary-isnt-good-enough-for-dept-of.html | 2016-02-14T05:54:39Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2016-07/segments/1454701169261.41/warc/CC-MAIN-20160205193929-00073-ip-10-236-182-209.ec2.internal.warc.gz | en | 0.933432 | 182 |
BIOMEDICAL IMAGING: Laser helps fill gaps in MRI scans
A patient with asthma lies in a magnetic-resonance-imaging (MRI) chamber, taking labored breaths as a doctor viewing a screen watches how the air moves in her lungs.
A patient with asthma lies in a magnetic-resonance-imaging (MRI) chamber, taking labored breaths as a doctor viewing a screen watches how the air moves in her lungs. The patient then sits up, takes a shot from her inhaler, and lies down again. The doctor can see immediately how much the inhaler has helped her breathing.
This was one of the tests performed by researchers at the University of Virginia (UVa; Charlottesville, VA), who are studying ways to improve their view into the body's cavities using MRI and hyperpolarized gas. Based on their work, the medical company Nycomed Amersham (Buckinghamshire, England) is preparing clinical trials in an effort to win US Food and Drug Administration approval for this method of imaging.

Magnetic-resonance imaging works by applying a magnetic field to change the spin of protons in water molecules in the bodyµfrom their usual rate of 4 kHz to 63 MHz. But when doctors want to examine a cavityµthe inside of the lungs or colon, for instanceµthey're hampered by the fact that they're looking at empty space. Two harmless gases, however, helium-3 (3He) and xenon-129 (129Xe), have physical properties that make them ideal imaging media (see photo).
The trick is to hyperpolarize the gases, said James R. Brookeman, professor of radiology and biomedical engineering at UVa. Using several gallium aluminum arsenide diode-laser arrays, researchers passed 749-nm beams through a quarter-wave plate and a collimator to circularly polarize them. They trained the light on a glass bulb filled with 3He laced with rubidium vapor. The photons transferred their polarization to the electrons in the rubidium, which has a D1 resonanceµa particular quantum-mechanical electrical stateµat 749 nm. That, in turn, polarized the 3He. When subjected to the MRI, the polarized protons spin at 48 MHz.
The process is only feasible for 3He and 129Xe because they are noble gases and have the right quantum-mechanical properties. "You can't do this with the regular stuff that you image the body withµthe hydrogen atoms in the water of the body," Brookeman said.
It takes several of the laser arrays, made by OptoPower (Tucson, AZ), to produce the 100 W of output needed for the process. Polarization with this method takes several hours, depending on the amount of gas to be treated. "It's just the laser you need," said Brookeman, "but these lasers were not available two or three years ago."
When the group first started, they were only able to polarize about 2% or 3% of a sample of 3He. Now they can polarize approximately 35%, so a patient has to breathe just 300 cc of the gas, instead of the liter that a 3% polarization required. The imaging therefore uses less gas, of which there is a limited supply.
The 3He is a decay product of tritium, used to make triggers for nuclear weapons. With the winding down of the Cold War, the supply of 3He is dwindling. Because 129Xe is a natural component of Earth's atmosphere, researchers would like to use that instead. Brookeman said they have not yet been able to polarize it more than 5%, but that will be the next target of research.
Lung imaging is not the only application for hyperpolarized gases and MRI. There has been some preliminary work on imaging the inside of the colon. By examining whether the colon wall is smooth or developing polyps, doctors might be able to predict the onset of colon cancer.
And because 129Xe attaches very easily to the hemoglobin in blood, gas dissolved in the bloodstream could provide other imaging opportunities. The dissolved gas only maintains its polarization for approximately 30 s, but because it only takes approximately 5 s to travel to the brain, there is enough time to get information, Brookeman said. | <urn:uuid:ea789049-30da-411e-8c3c-cefc67608c6a> | CC-MAIN-2019-30 | https://www.laserfocusworld.com/test-measurement/research/article/16548322/biomedical-imaging-laser-helps-fill-gaps-in-mri-scans | 2019-07-23T19:59:38Z | s3://commoncrawl/crawl-data/CC-MAIN-2019-30/segments/1563195529664.96/warc/CC-MAIN-20190723193455-20190723215455-00302.warc.gz | en | 0.93869 | 923 |
