How to speed up the search for new worlds? Gamify it!
One of the biggest challenges for any “citizen science” project, not surprisingly, is getting people to participate. A 2015 study of Zooniverse, a site that offers ordinary folks the chance to help with data-rich research projects ranging from moon hunting to snow-spotting, showed that the top 10 percent of contributors supplied (on average) 79 percent of the contributions. And fewer than one-third of people who sign up for a project return a second time.
A new exoplanet-seeking project will seek to overcome this problem by tapping into one of the more addictive leisure activities around: gaming. A 2014 Nielsen study shows that the average gamer played for more than six hours a week.
The new partnership is between a multiplayer game called EVE Online and scientists using data from the CoRoT (COnvection ROtation and planetary Transits) satellite, which searched for the signatures of exoplanets and studied the seismology of stars from 2007 to 2013. While this is not the first citizen science project related to extrasolar planets—Planet Hunters, Exoplanet Explorers and Disk Detective have been online for years—the CoRoT search is likely the first to team up with an existing multiplayer game.
“Most of the planets have been extracted from [the CoRoT data], but not all,” said Michel Mayor, a professor emeritus at the University of Geneva who co-discovered the first exoplanet orbiting a sun-like star, 51 Pegasi, in 1995. Mayor, who is advising the EVE Online and scientific teams building the exoplanet search tool, gave a presentation on the initiative at the recent EVE Fanfest in Iceland.
The inspiration for the partnership came from Foldit, an online video game where gamers make predictions concerning protein folding. In 2011, gamers decoded the structure of an AIDS-related enzyme called Mason-Pfizer monkey virus (M-PMV) retroviral protease, solving a problem that had baffled the scientific community for 15 years.
EVE Online already has a community of gamers that presumably are interested in space, given that its action takes place in a universe where space exploration, mining and combat are common. The mini CoRoT game will give players something to do when jumping between space stations, which can take several minutes to load. They will be given data and asked to classify them according to criteria yet to be established. The CoRoT module is expected to be released this spring.
Mayor said it’s unknown how many people will end up playing the mini-game, or whether they’ll be willing to participate with no guarantee of success. As of May 2013, the EVE service had 500,000 subscriptions, but there are some indications of a drop in subscriptions between then and 2015.
Mayor said it will take perhaps a dozen or more independent detections of a potential “planet” before scientists would take the time to check the raw data to see if it was a positive match. If a claimed planet does turn out to be real, there will be some way of acknowledging the gamers’ contributions in any published scientific paper, he said.
The aim is to include Kepler data in the EVE Online catalog as well. Other participants in the project include Massively Multiplayer Online Science (MMOS), the University of Reykjavik and the University of Geneva.

There is growing evidence that using cigarettes can also affect the brain. The latest study shows that smoking is associated with cognitive decline as early as age 45, and that male smokers may be more vulnerable to these mental effects than women. | 2019-04-24T00:26:43 | http://www.allprivatehealth.com/blog/cancer-treatment/ |

There is an oft-discussed obscure Formula One record: who had the shortest Formula One racing career? The driver most often cited for this record is Marco Apicella, the Italian driver who was knocked out of the 1993 Italian Grand Prix at the first corner. More clued-up fanatics will know that Ernst Loof’s 1953 German Grand Prix lasted all of two metres when his fuel pump failed at the start. But this fact wasn’t semi-common knowledge for a long time, and Apicella was credited with the record for years. His career arc echoed that of the man whose record he had supposedly beaten: Miguel Ángel Guerra.
Guerra (far right) makes his Formula 4 début in 1971.
Born in Buenos Aires on August 31st 1953, Guerra got his motorsport career started at the age of 18. These days, certain drivers already have thousands of miles in Grand Prix machinery under their belts by this age, but in the 1970s, this was not the case. Under the tutelage of Renault importer and tuner Osvaldo Antelo, Guerra entered his first Argentine Formula 4 race in 1971 in Nueve de Julio. He certainly made an impression on début, when he passed a swath of cars in a single corner. Unfortunately for Miguel, the stewards were less impressed, as he had made the move under yellow flags!
Nonetheless, Miguel proved himself to be rather deft behind the wheel and became a mainstay of the Argentine Formula 4 scene with his Crespi-Renault. In his first full season in 1972, he was the championship runner-up to Carlos Jarque, and in a similar turn of events, he finished behind Jorge De Amorrortu in 1973. Once both drivers left the series to drive more powerful machinery, Miguel was free to dominate the championship. In 1974 and 1975, he beat Agustín Beamonte to two consecutive Argentine Formula 4 titles. Like Jarque and De Amorrortu, Guerra was ready to move up in the world.
Guerra (right) posing with his Formula 2 car circa 1976.
In fact, in 1974, Miguel had already made his début in the Argentine Formula 2 Championship and promptly finished runner-up in the championship. As he won his second Formula 4 title in 1975, he also took his first Formula 2 crown. Going from strength to strength, he won the title again in 1976 and 1977. By then, he had also begun to drive in the Argentine Formula 1 series.
Fórmula 1 Mecánica Argentina – to refer to it by its proper name – was a series for Formula 1-styled single-seaters with 3-to-4-litre engines. The championship had notably been won by Nasif Estéfano and was contested by constructor Oreste Berta, who had made an abortive attempt at a World Championship entry in 1975. Argentine Formula 1 was a very competitive series, and it was driving a Berta that Miguel made his début in 1977. One of five drivers to complete the full season, Miguel scored three victories and seven podiums in nine races. However, this was not enough to beat defending champion Pedro Passadore, from Uruguay, who scored four wins and eight podiums.
In an era when the Argentine Grand Prix was a championship event and Carlos Reutemann was a major figure in Formula One, single-seater motorsport was very popular in Argentina. Feeling ready to move to Europe after his F4, F2 and F1 successes, Miguel found sponsors back home and got on a plane to Italy.
Miguel competed in Argentina’s premier single-seater series in 1977.
Miguel poses by the Everest Chevron that started his European career.
Arriving in Europe with few connections and an obscure reputation, Miguel began to search for a drive. His first opportunity arrived in the form of Scuderia Emiliani, a small Italian team looking for a driver to make their first appearance in Formula Three. Miguel jumped on the opportunity, and on May 14th 1978, he was on the grid at Imola for the European F3 Championship. Driving a Wolf-Toyota, Miguel qualified fourth in his heat and finished fifth, ahead of the likes of Arie Luyendyk and Huub Rothengatter. Starting the final in ninth place, he ran a clean race and finished seventh, half a second behind eventual champion Jan Lammers and just ahead of Michael Bleekemolen, by then already an F1 driver.
Miguel had also beaten two drivers by the name of Gianluca Bagnara and Marco Micangeli. The pair was driving for Scuderia Everest, the outfit owned by Giancarlo Minardi. Everest were also competing in European Formula Two, with a rotating cast of Italian drivers supporting Elio de Angelis. Impressed by Guerra’s performance on a track he had never driven before, Minardi offered the Argentine a drive for the rest of the season.
Two weeks later, Miguel made his European F2 début at Mugello in a Scuderia Everest Chevron-BMW. Qualifying 22nd, less than a second behind de Angelis in a Chevron-Ferrari, Miguel finished the race 16th of 23 finishers, ahead of fellow Argentine Ricardo Zunino and motorcycle legend Giacomo Agostini. The going was tough for Everest, as the team could only rarely hope to trouble the upper midfield. After Rouen, de Angelis left the team for the works Chevron concern, and Miguel was promoted to lead driver in the Ferrari-powered car. Results improved marginally, including seventh place at Donington.
In 1978, Guerra also competed in a season-ending race in his native Buenos Aires. He finished seventh.
No points were scored by the team that year, but the Donington result led to an invitation to Maranello to discuss engine development. During a meeting with Enzo Ferrari, Miguel – partially in jest – asked about the possibility of testing a Ferrari in the future. Il Commendatore reportedly replied: “You never know…” Miguel capped the season with seventh place in a non-championship F2 race in his native Argentina.
Miguel’s flashes of pace in 1978 led to a contract renewal, while Everest switched to a March chassis for 1979. Miguel would occasionally be joined by Clay Regazzoni, Gianfranco Brancatelli and Ferrante Ponti. The performance gains were immediately noticeable, as Miguel qualified in the top ten in Silverstone. He would spend most of the rest of the season starting from the sixth and seventh rows, with four exceptions: Hockenheim, Vallelunga, Pergusa and Misano. He retired from the Italian rounds, but starting from sixth in Hockenheim, he finished an excellent third behind Keke Rosberg and Rad Dougall. Along with fourth place in Thruxton and sixth place in Pau, Miguel finished the season with eight points in 14th position, tied with Alberto Colombo.

This return to form for Everest was associated with Giancarlo Minardi’s nascent partnership with a Milanese Fiat dealer called Piero Mancini. A wealthy benefactor who would later create Motori Moderni, Mancini’s much-needed funds allowed Scuderia Everest to become a manufacturer in its own right. Thus, Minardi was born.
The first Minardi, powered by BMW engines, was not at the same level as the Toleman, but its reliability (four retirements in 16 starts) allowed it to often beat the more fragile March entries. Guerra himself was extremely consistent, finishing nine of eleven races, all of them in the top ten and five of them in the points, though he did not score another podium. His ten points allowed him to claim ninth place in the championship, and an impressive run of five consecutive top-ten starts were a testament to his raw pace.
In 1979, Miguel had carried out testing for Osella in preparation for their return to Formula Two. Eddie Cheever went on to drive the car to fourth place that season, eventually following Osella into Formula One in 1980. As 1981 came about, Enzo Osella prepared a second entry, but Cheever had already signed for Tyrrell. One of the Osella higher-ups remembered Miguel’s Formula Two tests and suggested him as a possible driver alongside the Italian Beppe Gabbiani. Coupled with his 1980 results, Miguel was offered the drive on the condition that he find more sponsors. The promise of Formula One exposure and Miguel’s impressive run of form made this a mere formality, and by February, the deal had been secured.
Miguel’s first Grand Prix weekend at Long Beach ended with a DNQ, the first of three.
Unfortunately for him, time was short, and he only had the time to carry out a straight-line shakedown at a Turin airfield before the cars were transported to the first race at Long Beach. By the time Miguel made his Grand Prix début, he had not yet turned a corner in anger. The United States Grand Prix West confirmed that Osella would resume their 1980 role as a firm backmarker. Of the 29 cars present in California, Guerra was only the 27th fastest, setting a 1:22.673, 3.274 seconds behind polesitter Patrese and 0.460 behind Gabbiani. To make things worse for Miguel, Gabbiani had qualified 24th, taking the last spot on the grid.
The total absence of engineers at Jacarepaguá was difficult for Miguel and the Osella team.
The situation did not improve in Brazil. Enzo Osella had not sent the team’s only engineer to the circuit, and stayed in his hotel room from Saturday onwards due to the heat. Discounting March – who had a horrendous weekend where neither driver set a meaningful lap – Gabbiani and Guerra were the two slowest drivers. Guerra’s fastest qualifying lap of 1:40.984 was almost six seconds slower than Piquet’s pole and over a second from Ricardo Zunino in 24th place. However, he was only 0.275 seconds behind Gabbiani, at the very least pointing towards familiarisation with the Osella FA1B.
By the time the Formula 1 circus returned to Europe for the inaugural San Marino Grand Prix, Osella had taken a leaf out of Brabham’s playbook. The engineers had installed a hydro-pneumatic suspension system, allowing for a replication of ground effects and ride height control. However, this development occurred at the peak of the Lotus 88 fiasco, and the Sammarinese scrutineers did not take kindly to the system, or indeed to any attempt at bending the rules. Lotus were banned from the weekend, and all cars bar those of Renault, Ligier and Toleman were deemed illegal for various infringements.
Many teams changed their cars overnight, but those with hydro-pneumatic suspension didn’t. Observers were posted around the track to report unusual ride heights to the stewards, but they relented when it became clear that every team had such a system. Lotus’ withdrawal gave Osella a free pass to qualifying, and the new suspension system put them ahead of ATS and the new Toleman. Miguel set a 1:38.773 in qualifying, 4.250 seconds behind Villeneuve on pole and 0.471 seconds behind Gabbiani. Nonetheless, this was the 22nd-fastest time, and Miguel was cleared to make his first start.
…but a first-lap crash left him injured and trapped in the FA1B’s crumpled cockpit.
Starting just behind Miguel on the damp grid was another South American driver making his first start: Eliseo Salazar. All drivers got a clean start, but as the field rounded the fast left-hander at Tamburello, Salazar made contact with Guerra, sending the Osella head-on into the inside retaining wall. As yellow flags were waved, an ambulance was sent onto the circuit to help extricate Guerra from the wreckage.
Miguel spent the night at Enzo Osella’s family home, and when the pain continued, he went to the hospital where he was diagnosed with a double fracture of his left ankle. The injuries did not require surgery, but his recovery was long and painful. Osella hired Piercarlo Ghinzani and Giorgio Francia to replace him temporarily, as he was expected to return to the cockpit by the French Grand Prix. This didn’t materialise, and Osella instead hired Jean-Pierre Jarier as a permanent replacement. Guerra would never drive in Formula One again.
After Formula One: Back to F2!
Upon his recovery, Miguel began to test for Minardi’s F2 team again, the 281 chassis occasionally scoring points in the hands of Johnny Cecotto and Michele Alboreto. For his loyalty, Miguel was offered a free drive at Misano towards the end of the 1981 season. Out of racing practice, Miguel nonetheless qualified 16th, ahead of teammates Cecotto and Farnetti, but behind Alboreto. The race was harsher on the Argentine, and he finished 13th and last while Alboreto, already in a full-time F1 drive, won the race.
Michele Alboreto wins for Minardi, ending Guerra’s European career once and for all.
Miguel did not stop looking for drives in Europe after his recovery, but his job was made difficult by a worsening economic crisis in Argentina, drastically reducing his sponsorship budget. As 1982 appeared, with it came the infamous Falklands War. The conflict notably caused Carlos Reutemann to leave Williams and retire from Formula 1, while the resulting blow to Argentina’s economy and global reputation ended any chance of Miguel finding another Formula One drive.
Giancarlo Minardi – who had become a close friend – told Miguel not to despair, and that he soon would have his own Formula 1 team. Miguel responded: “How are you going to have your own F1 team when you don’t even have a bolt?” Offered only a couple of part-time F2 drives, Miguel returned to Argentina. There would be no Argentine in F1 until Oscar Larrauri in 1988.
Guerra (centre) wins the inaugural F2 Codasur race in Tarumá.
Upon his return, Miguel resumed his activities in Argentine Formula 2, by then being dominated by Guillermo Maldonado (no relation to Pastor). Once again driving a Berta-Renault, he scored four podiums, including a convincing victory at Concordia, and three fastest laps. He finished fifth in what would be the final season of Argentine F2. With most South American motorsport sanctioning bodies merging into a single confederation named Codasur, a new continental Formula 2 series would be created. Two exhibition races for the new series were held in late 1982. Miguel won the first of them in Tarumá, in Brazil.
Perhaps cautiously waiting to see if the series would be a success, Miguel did not compete in the first few races of the new championship. By the sixth race of 1983, held at Interlagos in June, over 20 drivers were regularly entering. Guerra tested a new Berta-Renault shortly thereafter, and he was on the grid in time for the next race in Rafaela. Against largely the same opposition as 1982, Miguel was immediately on the pace. Scoring two podiums in his first four races, he capped his season with victory and fastest lap in Buenos Aires. With 23 points, he finished the year in sixth place despite competing in only half of the races. The following season, he kept up his form, winning races in Rafaela and San Juan on his way to second place behind the ever-dominant Maldonado.
Miguel flaunted his consistency in F2 Codasur, including in 1985 with four podiums.
Miguel kept driving in Formula 2 Codasur in 1985, still in his trusty #46 UFO-sponsored Berta-Renault, but he struggled to keep the pace with the likes of Maldonado and Guillermo Kissling. Nonetheless, his ability to consistently perform allowed him to score four podiums, all third places, and finish a distant fourth in the championship with 22 points. The following year, Miguel’s race pace improved, leading to victories at Florianópolis and Buenos Aires. Three other podiums put him third in the championship behind Maldonado and Kissling. This would be the last season of Formula 2 Codasur, as dwindling interest led to a complete rebrand of the series.
Formula 3 Sudamericana was created in 1987, with the F2 regulars joined by new up-and-coming drivers in the same cars as the previous championship. Miguel had a lot of difficulty adapting to the new field. Only managing a single second place in the season-ending race at Villa Carlos Paz, he finished a lowly ninth. Aged 34, Miguel decided to bring an end to his open-wheel career.
While competing in Formula 3, Miguel had made a select few appearances in the Argentine TC2000 touring car series. His competitive performances in those outings encouraged him to pursue a new career path, and from 1988, Miguel would be driving in TC2000. Driving a Renault Fuego, Miguel made an impression on his full time début at Mar del Plata by holding up Guillermo Maldonado and Hugo Olmi, angering both drivers. Third place on début was a good indicator of Guerra’s pace, and with his trademark consistency, he scored another two podiums that year, including a maiden win at the penultimate round in Balcarce. He finished the season in fifth place.
In 1989, Miguel faced competition from Juan María Traverso, who won five races out of 12. However, despite winning only two races in San Jorge and Pigüé, Guerra scored four more podiums (as many as Traverso) and regularly finished well. At the final race in Mendoza, Guerra finished second behind Traverso and sealed the TC2000 title by eight points. The video embedded above shows the race itself and an interview (in Spanish) with Guerra.
Miguel’s 1996 Peugeot, which he drove to fourth place in the TC 2000 championship.
While this was Miguel’s last title, he remained competitive in TC2000 for a few more years. Finishing fifth in 1990, he switched his allegiance to Ford and Volkswagen in 1991 after almost 20 years with Renault. This led to a fourth place finish in 1991, including a race win, but as his results worsened, he changed again, this time to Peugeot. After a couple of difficult seasons, he returned to form in 1996, when two pole positions led to as many wins and four podiums.
In 1997, Miguel moved to the brand new South American Super Touring Championship. Competing for Ford, Chevrolet and Honda, the different cars didn’t help him to perform, as all five of his finishes were in the lower third of the top ten. For 1998, he signed full-time with INI Competición, taking the Chevrolet Vectra to a single pole position and tenth place in the championship. The following year, he set up his own team and returned to Peugeot. Top ten finishes were plentiful and culminated in victory at the penultimate round in Olavarría and ninth in the final standings. This would be Miguel’s final race victory.
The Super Touring championship already on its last legs, Miguel would drive in Turismo Carretera in the year 2000. He had occasionally won invitational races in the series throughout the 1990s, and driving a Chevrolet Nova, he scored podiums in Olavarría and Buenos Aires and finished the year in eleventh place. He continued to race into 2001, but by this point, he was 47 years old. With most of his early rivals already retired, he decided to end his career after four more races.
In 2004, Miguel became vice-president of the Top Race championship, another Argentine touring car championship. Overseeing the series’ rebranding to Top Race V6 in 2005 and the launch of two junior categories, he remained vice-president until his retirement in 2014 at the age of 61. Today, Miguel follows the career of his son Lucas Ariel, born in 1987, who won the Top Race Series in 2014 and now competes in Top Race V6.
Miguel still occasionally competes in races for veteran drivers.
Miguel Ángel Guerra is best remembered as a supremely consistent driver and one of the best Argentine drivers of his generation. Though he generally lacked the killer instinct and sheer pace to regularly contend for championships, he had enough talent and contacts to hold his own in Europe. His Formula 1 career was unlikely to last past 1981, even without his injury, but his friendship with Giancarlo Minardi is still strong. At the 2016 Minardi Day in Imola, Miguel was there to drive his old Formula 2 car. He may have regretted his decision to return to Argentina in 1982, as when Minardi finally became a Formula 1 team in 1985, Miguel was there at Jacarepaguá…to change the tyres for his old friend’s car. | 2019-04-21T16:23:02 | https://gprejects.com/drivers/miguel-angel-guerra |

I'm sorry I'm a tad late today.
Welcome to Keep In Touch. I am so glad you're here.
I removed some gold detail on porcelain and styled the living room for spring.
I put together a bunny centerpiece for a Pineterest Challenge.
My husband took two days off from work.
We had a beautiful trip out to the lake.
We briefly considered this house for a weekend place.
Does it look like it's sitting too low to you?
It's not been updated which is a plus.
It's got two lots in between it and the water which is a major down side.
Our feature this week is Penny from Penny's Vintage Home.
I love her spring vignette.
Thank you Katie for your 60th Keep In Touch. Always appreciated.
Hi Katie. Love your sweet party to see the fun inspiration. Wow to see the pretty purple at the lake. I cannot wait for us here in the midwest to begin to see life outside our windows again.
Thanks so much for hosting and thanks so much for stopping by!! I am feeling okay but if I do too much standing, my knee just kills me....I hope you have a good week!!
Sounds like you had a busy week! Thanks for taking the time to host the party.
I'm late to the party, Katie. Thank you for hosting and sharing with us. Happy first day of Spring!
I'm late signing in too but thanks for hosting and happy spring!

Pages and prints for my upcoming book “Lachrymose: pool of tears”. This was inspired initially by the idea of frozen sea and suspended water droplets seeming like frozen tears. Alice in Wonderland’s pool of tears made me think of preposterous conditions for swimming, and of tear drops as relics.
The pages are screen printed onto old magazine paper( L’Oeil) and carbon paper: some are printed over ink drawings. | 2019-04-23T03:54:41 | https://saratrilloartist.wordpress.com/2015/05/ |

There are a number of government offices that are involved in the marriage process in Ontario. The Municipality of North Perth issues marriage licences, while the Office of the Registrar General (ORG) is responsible for registering marriages and issuing marriage certificates.
Prior to a marriage licence being issued in Ontario, couples should be aware that a marriage must be solemnized under the authority of a marriage licence or the publication of banns.
Couples wishing to be married in Ontario must complete a marriage licence application form, signed by both parties to the marriage. The application form must be submitted, with the appropriate identification (see below), in person by one or both of the parties to the Municipal Office.
Provided that the information is complete and correct, the licence will be issued, and is valid anywhere in Ontario for a period of 90 days from the date of issuance.
Marriage License Application forms can be obtained at the Municipal Office.
The fee for a marriage licence a the Municipality of North Perth is $115.00 payable by cash, debit and cheque payable to the Municipality of North Perth.
Bring 2 pieces of government issued identification for each person getting married. One piece must include your photo.
No person under 16 years of age may be married. An applicant who is 16 or 17 years of age is required to have both parents or guardian(s) fill out a form at the Clerk's office at the time of applying for the marriage licence giving their written consent.
If either party's previous marriage ended in divorce, the original copy or a certified true copy of the Decree Absolute or Certificate of Divorce must be submitted to the Issuer of Marriage Licences. A Divorce Judgement or Decree Nisi is not acceptable. Certified true copies can be obtained from the court, which granted the divorce.
After the marriage, the marrying couple may receive a Record of Solemnization of Marriage.
This document includes the couple's names, the date of the marriage, the names of the witnesses and whether the marriage was performed under the authority of a licence or the publication of banns. This is not a legal record.
The person who performed the marriage must forward the Record of Solemnization of Marriage and the marriage licence to the Office of the Registrar General for registration.
Once your marriage has been registered, you may apply for a marriage certificate. Application forms can be obtained from the Municipal Office. Online registration is also available through ServiceOntario.

Migrant and ethnic entrepreneurship are increasingly seen as driving forces of regional economic growth in the US and Europe. Immigrants are overrepresented among company founders in technology parks (Saxenian, 1999, 2008) and more often self-employed than similarly skilled nativeborn workers (Borjas, 1986, Fairli & Meyer, 1996). Several explanations have been suggested, focusing on personal resources of migrants (e.g. demographic traits) or structural factors (e.g. ethnic opportunities). The goal of our study is to look at a new way to explain this phenomenon: improved opportunity recognition as consequence of the exposure to a foreign culture.
We hypothesize that the exposure to a culturally different context creates a learning environment for opportunity recognition. This learning process is realized on two levels: (1) intercultural experience allows the sojourner to build a more diverse knowledge pool. By interacting with a new business environment she can acquire knowledge about new markets, customer problems and ways to solve problems, allowing the brokering of knowledge about attractive opportunities. (2) Sojourners can also experience an increase in cognitive flexibility (Scott, 1962). A cognitive flexible problem solver is associated with considering several alternative interpretations to a given task, thus developing more and more creative solutions (Krems, 1995).

The AGC provides the functionality of handheld scientific calculators commonly used in the classroom. Operating on a flexible Windows platform and augmented with audio and tactile feedback, the AGC provides an alternative for people who cannot effectively use a handheld calculator, or those seeking a more interactive interface. The AGC is accessible to anyone who can use a computer, regardless of ability, allowing the user to concentrate on math, not on learning the tools to access it. | 2019-04-21T15:05:08 | http://www.woodlaketechnologies.com/Audio-Graphing-Calculator-p/vwp400.htm |
Over the past several months I have heard knocks in the woods behind my house. I live in the Berkshires in MA on a wooded 6 acre lot that borders a very mountainous area with over 100 undeveloped acres. In addition, I have had some rocks being thrown at night while I have been on my back porch. My most recent occurrence was a few week ago while standing on my back porch I heard some noises nearby in the woods.I scanned the area with my high intensity flashlight and saw some eye shine about 40 yards into the woods. I stared at it for a while and then the animal turned and moved deeper into the woods. I subsequently estimated that the eyes would have been on something at least 7-8 feet tall. In addition, my wife and I have heard knocks in the past and they even responded to my knocks on one occasion last fall. | 2019-04-24T14:07:42 | http://squatchable.com/report.asp?id=1935&title=Homeowner+sees+red+eyeshine+and+hears+wood+knocks+in+woods+near+Becket |
Last week's 26th July episode is in HD with a rental expiring on 9th August so it looks like they are now made availabe in HD for 14 days after initial broadcast.
Perhaps BT are trying to make me feel nostalgic for the early 90s when they used to show month old WCW Pro Wrestling on ITV?
It's up, and in HD.
I think we can officially give up on TNA on BT TV now, don't you?
Last week's episode (ie. the two week old episode) of Impact is still not up, today, Tuesday the 13th of August. When it does finally arrive, I'm sure if will be labelled the 9th of August as if everything is hunky dory. | 2019-04-20T02:47:15 | https://community.bt.com/t5/YouView-from-BT/TNA-Impact/m-p/957386 |
Quick denials of disability claims might mean big bucks for the doctors who review them in Tennessee. According to The Tennessean, around 50 physicians contracted by the state have made millions of dollars over the years by speeding through claims. And often they denied the claims, such that the state's 72% denial rate in 2017 was 6 points higher than the national average.
Contract physicians hired by Tennessee's Disability Determination Services are paid on a per-case basis -- incentivizing high pace. "The federal standard is 1.5 cases per hour. More than half of all Tennessee contract physicians exceeded that," the newspaper found. "One doctor averaged a case every 12 minutes." That same doctor reportedly made $2.2 million since 2013 with an 80% denial rate.
Besides the pay-per-claim model, The Tennessean identified other factors that could drive excessive denials: lack of oversight, heavy workload goals, and hiring physicians with a history of misconduct -- including one with three separate felony cocaine convictions.
North Carolina is sitting on an almost $29-million cache of unspent state-federal funds earmarked to improve nursing homes, reports North Carolina Health News.
This cash stockpile accumulated as federal investigators levied fines against nursing homes in the state. And nursing homes can apply for grants from this civil money penalty (CMP) but need approval from state and federal officials.
"Unfortunately, there are not enough applications for the use of these CMP funds," Emery Milliken, a deputy director of the Division of Health Service Regulation, told North Carolina Health News.
She said 22 of the 24 applications received were "ultimately" approved. But others pointed the finger at the bureaucratic red tape involved in gaining approvals.
First there was the woman in a decade-long vegetative state at Phoenix-based Hacienda HealthCare giving birth without the staff realizing she was pregnant. The firm's CEO then resigned after that story broke.
Now the New York Times reports that, beginning in 2016, state investigators have been probing $3.4 million in "suspicious and potentially fraudulent" Medicaid claims by Hacienda.
A spokesperson for the Arizona Health Care Cost Containment System said it "requested a variety of Hacienda's financial records, and sought enforcement of its administrative subpoena when Hacienda refused to comply with the request." Those records still haven't been turned over, said the Times, which also noted that the facility had been cited earlier for lapses in care.
Hacienda HealthCare has denied wrongdoing.
Baylor St. Luke's Medical Center in Houston drops three more top officials after yet another scandal, as reported in an investigation by the Houston Chronicle and ProPublica.
Baylor St. Luke's president, Gay Nord, and two other executives are leaving the hospital, following disclosures about a patient's death after receiving the wrong blood type during a transfusion. The hospital had previously been rocked by investigations showing high patient death rates in its heart transplant program, which once had been considered a national model.
The chairman of St. Luke's board of directors acknowledged the challenges the facility faced over the past year but said that "aggressive action" was necessary to right the hospital's ship.
Some researchers hoping to present their work at the 6th World Conference on Research Integrity were apparently so eager that they forgot what the conference was about, committing plagiarism in their abstract submissions.
Writing in Retraction Watch, co-organizers of the conference said they were tipped off by one of their reviewers who had spotted plagiarized material. They then used Turnitin, an application that many teachers and professors use to scour students' work for plagiarism, on all the submitted abstracts and found "12 suspected cases of plagiarism and 18 suspected cases of self-plagiarism."
Here's the best part: two of those abstracts had plagiarism as their topics. | 2019-04-18T22:20:02 | https://amp.medpagetoday.com/publichealthpolicy/ethics/77434?comment=true |
It's time to start making more.
So I'm 35 years old now. Almost 36. As pretty much anyone my age and older will probably tell the youth of our world, time flies.
Sure, I suppose time didn't fly while back in elementary school and high school, but after joining the work force or whatever, time seriously takes no Summer breaks.
I suppose time seems to go so fast these days simply because we are no longer on a set schedule of years and days in school. Now, it's just work work work, and then do the same thing over again the next week, month, year, etc. When you have yourself a 9 to 5 job, it's pretty easy to get complacent with time and then time most definitely will fly.
Well, I want to slow things down a bit, and as I have no special powers (aside from my power of flight), I think it's time to start making more projects so I can slow down time again.
2006 - My mom passes away.
2008 - Laid off from a creative job I cared about.
2008 - Shot a feature film with one of my best friends. We worked really hard on this thing.
2009 - Started working in a new (non-creative) field.
2010 - I did one of those 365 self portrait projects which actually turned out very satisfying. Some pictures stand out to me now 7 years old, and I still remember things I did that day because of the photos I took. 2010 was also the year the Giants won the World Series for the first time in 56 years. November 1, 2011. I have the picture to prove it.
2011 - Met my wife.
2012 - Met my nephew.
2014 - We got married and went to Paris.
So, these years are all sort of "dates" that I go by in terms of "periods of my life." It's nice to have most of them, a tracking system so to speak. Every single one of these moments mean something to me. I feel like if I start committing myself to larger projects with meaning, I can add more moments of importance to my memories, thus helping me remember and slow down time.
Okay, writing this might not make a whole lot of sense, but I'm okay with that. It started out as just 4 lines, but I ramble.
Anyway, if you got this far, thanks for sticking with me.
Perhaps I can look back at this in a few years and laugh at it. Whatever, that's not the point. | 2019-04-25T19:45:41 | https://www.andrewriddle.com/words/2017/12/18/lets-talk-about-making-things |

The aim of this article is to contribute to the discussion on the nature, scope and meaning of the concept of human rights1 by suggesting that the "rights" approach is not the best way to develop a positive and modern human rights culture. Consequently, emphasis on the meaning of rights is not even instrumental in discovering the very essence of the concept of human rights as it is being invoked and applied in almost all areas of legal regulation. Instead, a deliberate constitutionalisation in which the scope for human rights violations would be reduced it is argued here is the only way to protect human dignity. | 2019-04-26T00:30:14 | http://shura.shu.ac.uk/693/ |

A Golden Milk Latte is a delicious herbal elixir made from turmeric and other warming spices. Golden milk has been used for centuries in ayurvedic medicine and has recently made a resurgence in the health and wellness community.
Why should you drink golden milk?
Although you can find many different recipes and methods to make a golden milk latte, you need to try my version.
When I want to get the perfect latte texture, I blend the warm milk with coconut oil or ghee. Another key is to use a high-speed blender to give the elixir a frothy and creamy texture. You can also make this drink into a complete meal by adding collagen peptide protein powder; which will provide protein without affecting the texture or flavor. 2 Tablespoons of collagen peptides from Vital Proteins is equal to 18 g of protein.
You can purchase fresh turmeric root at most health food stores, Asian or Indian supermarkets. I like the flavor of this recipe best with fresh turmeric.
I hope you enjoy this recipe; it’s one of my clients favorites.
Add the milk, cinnamon, cardamom, and turmeric and heat over low for 15 minutes until warm. Do not boil.
Remove from heat and remove the cinnamon stick (you can reuse it up to 3 times). Strain the milk to remove the other herbs.
In a blender, combine the golden milk, lucuma, coconut oil, honey, ginger, black pepper and optional collagen peptides. Blend until smooth.
Pour into mugs and garnish with a sprinkle of cinnamon powder.
Pin it for a weekend warm-up!

Especially suited to tight access situations and small machining centers, the innovative OMP400 touch probe with optical signal transmission from Renishaw measures only 40 mm in diameter and 50 mm in length, combining miniaturization of the highly successful OMP40 probe with new advances in strain gage technology. Offering an unrivaled combination of size, accuracy, reliability and robustness, the OMP400 can bring the benefits of probing to many high accuracy applications, the company states. Using Renishaw’s exclusive strain gage technology, the OMP400 can achieve far greater levels of accuracy than possible from a standard mechanical probe, making it suitable for a range of applications where high precision measurement is a must.
The OMP400 offers particular advantages for machines with short Z-axis travel and spindles as small as HSK32. The probe’s diminutive size allows small machine users for the first time to benefit from the high accuracy of strain gage technology. The innovative probe allows operators of small machining centers to reduce set-up times, scrap and fixture costs, improve process control with high accuracy on-machine measurement, and realize "done in one" production efficiencies.
Strain gages allow the probe to trigger at much lower and highly consistent contact forces, resulting in less bending of the stylus and negligible pre-travel for greater accuracy. First seen on the MP700 spindle-probe, strain gage technology is unique to Renishaw and delivers superior probe repeatability, the company reports. | 2019-04-24T03:48:14 | https://www.moldmakingtechnology.com/products/compact-touch-probe |

Fish suspected of having ISA were slaughtered over the weekend 18-19 April.
The Locality is located in a control area for ISA which was created on January 12 2015.
The locality is situated in what is defined as a fighting zone. | 2019-04-20T01:17:57 | https://thefishsite.com/articles/new-isa-outbreak-suspected-in-halsa |
Calen Rayne is a Unitarian Universalist Lay Community Minister and Spiritual Director in Asheville, NC. He has trained with alchemists of the first religion of the Himalayas (nameless religion), known as “patterns of heaven and earth” or “sacred conventions.” Dr. Rayne builds labyrinths, designs and consults on sacred landscapes, and produces energy mandalas and altars for healing. He is a Veriditas-Certified Labyrinth Facilitator and co-founder of Earth Shamans. Scientific discovery is still catching up to ancient wisdom, and Calen Rayne is standing at the crossroads of the two. Calen works with this internal mapping system in a method he learned in the Himalayas, called “genesis point vibrational radiesthesia”, which enables us to identify a particular point at a sacred site where we can connect with the energetics of the land.

IDO is considered a promising therapeutic target for immunological cancer treatment. We found that the antihypertensive agent candesartan cilexetil inhibits IDO. The structural modifications provided a >10-fold more potent inhibitor. Structure–activity relationship and docking studies suggested that candesartan analogues uniquely bind to the entrance of the active site in IDO, and not to the haem region. Analogue synthesis, kinetic analysis and cellular activity are also described herein. | 2019-04-23T09:56:57 | https://pubs.rsc.org/en/content/articlelanding/2012/MD/c2md00278g |
The holidays have come once again and a new year is upon us. Aside from the typical festivities during the holidays, many couples tend to get engaged over the holiday season. What a great way to celebrate the season and a new chapter in life. If you are one of these couples and are thinking a destination wedding is in your future, we can help. We know that planning a wedding can be a daunting task all on its own, but a destination wedding can have a few extra elements of complication. To help make your big day a dream come true, we’ve got 5 tips for planning your destination wedding.
Keep in mind that determining the location for your destination wedding is probably one of the most important decisions for you wedding. Make sure you do your homework ahead of time to really understand the place you plan to exchange your vows. Think about climate, culture, transportation and other logistics, lodging, amenities and services in the area. If you forget something, will you be able to run by a store to pick it up? What are the transportation options for you and your guests? What do you need to pack and bring with you vs. what items can you pick up after arriving? There is much to consider when choosing where you will be celebrating your wedding day.
Choosing your location and booking your selected venue early will give you much more than peace of mind. Booking early will give you more opportunity for choices and variety. Have more options for dates, caterers, florists, wedding cake designers, musicians, photographers, etc. You get the point; the earlier you plan and book in the process, the less likely you are to be cornered with fewer choices your special day. Having the right experts on your team will make all the difference in the world. Get everything you need for your big day lined up early so you aren’t left scrambling to find a few missing pieces of the puzzle as you near your big day.
When you decide on your venue, it is vital that you understand exactly what is included. Ask a lot of questions. Are you getting more than the use of the facility or are there other services included with your rental? When can you access the facility to begin set up? What is the parking situation for your guests? Where will the bride and other members of the wedding party dress for the event? At Ridgewood Event Center, your rental fee includes high quality tables, wood chairs, linens, glassware, silverware and china, and a professional staff for consultation, set up, and cleanup of your event. We can also provide a beautiful event tent and other items for an additional charge. It's all designed to save you cost and hassle, so you can really enjoy everything about your wedding.
It is best for the happy couple to arrive a few days before the big event. This allows them to get acclimated to their surroundings and pull together any last minute pieces. These couple of days can be used to handle any problems that arise before your guests begin arriving. When the guests arrive, you can enjoy your time with them and not be forced to put out the fires.
Let your guests know about area attractions or activities planned for your event so they can plan ahead of time. If traveling for your big day, many guests may want to make a vacation out of their trip. Let them know ahead of time what vacation opportunities your guests may have outside of your wedding. Giving them a heads up on what to expect will be appreciated. | 2019-04-24T13:59:20 | http://www.ridgewoodevents.com/wedding-blog/5-tips-for-planning-your-destination-wedding/ |
Application Process: The application process for the UCF Community Geography and GIS REU Site is based on a highly competitive, nationwide search of talented undergraduate students. Previous coursework in geography, GIS and related disciplines is highly desirable, but not required. We also encourage students with skill sets in GIS, GPS, interviewing, qualitative data analysis, and/or facilitating focus groups. There is no minimum GPA requirement, but preference will be given to students with a 3.0 or higher GPA and who demonstrate significant potential for succeeding in a collaborative international research experience. No previous international field experience is required and foreign language skills are not necessary as Belize is an English speaking country.
Sunset over the Belize Barrier Reef off of South Water Caye, this is our research environment.
Commitment to Broadening Participation: The UCF REU Site is deeply committed to including students from all backgrounds, and will strive for inclusion of students from underrepresented groups, including women, returning non-traditional students, minorities, persons with disabilities, and first-generation college students. We especially encourage students from institutions that lack similar international research programs (e.g., non-research institutions, liberal arts schools, tribal colleges, community colleges, and historically black colleges and universities).
Enrollment Requirement and Citizenship Status: Each student must be an undergraduate enrolled in a college or university in the United States in the fall of 2018. Students graduating prior to the start of the UCF REU are not eligible to apply. As a program funded by The National Science Foundation, each student must also be a U.S. citizen or permanent resident to participate in the REU Site.
The Priority Application Deadline was Friday, March 2, 2018 at 5 PM EST. We are no longer accepting applications for the 2018 program. We thank the 547 applicants to this year’s program.
A complete application, includes: 1) an application form through Google Forms, 2) submission of a personal statement (limited to 3 double-spaced pages) and unofficial transcripts as attachments to belizereusite@gmail.com, and 3) submission of 1 reference letter from a faculty, employer, or mentor to belizereusite@gmail.com. The reference letter should be sent directly by the writer of the letter, not the REU student applicant.
Applications materials should be addressed to Dr. Timothy L. Hawthorne (REU Principal Investigator). Incomplete applications will not be accepted. Potential candidates may be contacted for a follow-up Skype interview within one month of the priority application deadline.
Importance of the Personal Statement: The personal statement is the most important component of a student’s application, so please give it some significant time and thought. The Personal Statement (limited to 3 double-spaced pages) should include: 1) a description of research interests, including how Belize might fit into these interests; 2) an explanation of what it means to engage in community research in a developing country; and 3) a discussion of potential post-graduation plans. The best personal statements will have a strong personal voice and demonstrate how your coursework and/or real-world experiences have prepared you for success in the Belize REU. When we read your statement we want to hear your passion about international work and community-based research. Please be sure to proofread your statement and consider having a faculty member at your home university/college provide you with helpful feedback prior to submission.
Decision Timeline: Within one month of the priority application deadline, the PI and Co-PI will contact a short-list of applicants for Skype interviews. We will choose a cohort of at least 8 students for the REU, and create a ranked alternate list of 4 additional students.

ISLAMABAD: The upcoming tax amnesty scheme would be the last chance for tax-evaders to declare their properties and assets and avoid any legal action which would be initiated against defaulters after the scheme is closed.
“The government is introducing asset declaration scheme to give people a chance for the final time,” official sources said, adding that it would not be applicable for individuals holding public offices.
The details of the schemes are expected to be revealed within a couple of days.
Sources further said that it would now be hard for tax evaders to hide their properties and assets, adding that the governments sources of acquiring information from different countries related to unregistered assets have improved considerably.
In addition, there have been considerable improvements inside the country as laws have been enacted to go after tax evaders. The Benami Act, which was not implemented by previous government, has been notified while rules for Benami have also been prepared and notices are being served.
The government is also introducing latest technology in the Federal Board of Revenue besides separating the tax administration and policy side to improve performance of the board. | 2019-04-21T20:23:56 | https://profit.pakistantoday.com.pk/2019/04/14/tax-amnesty-scheme-final-chance-to-regulate-properties-assets/ |
Whitefield Academy celebrates the opening of Morris Hall amid falling confetti and smiles. Pictured in the center are board of trustees member Allen Bell, Ida Morris, and headmaster Dr. John Lindsell.
Allen Morris believes in giving back to the community.
In addition to its employees volunteering and serving in leadership roles with the area’s most respected business and civic non-profit organizations, the company and its employees contribute financial support. All of the Allen Morris companies contribute a minimum of 10% or more of annual profits to the Allen Morris Foundation, which in turn, supports many civic non-profit, charitable, cultural arts and ministry organizations. These benefit the communities we serve, as well as initiatives around the country and the world. We also support primary and secondary education in facilitating the building of the L. Allen and Ida Morris Academic and Administration Building of Whitfield Academy in Atlanta, GA., named for the company founder. We are also proud to have donated The Allen Morris Brickell Parks to the City of Miami for public use and enjoyment. Allen Morris is also the creator and co-sponsor with the Coral Gables Chamber of Commerce of the annual George E. Merrick Award of Excellence to honor outstanding community leaders in Coral Gables.
All one has to do is walk through the lobby of Alhambra Towers, Allen Morris’ signature building and company headquarters in Coral Gables, Florida, to be convinced of the priority we place on art in our projects. We don’t build cookie-cutter, bland buildings. Rather, we strive to create aesthetic experiences through art and architecture that add meaning and uniqueness to the community. Our stated mission is to Inspire, Impress and Improve – and certainly that includes building office, multi-family, and mixed-use spaces that exude a sense of place and identity. The original stained glass from a church that once stood on the property was recycled into the design of the lobby, resulting in a warm, somewhat ethereal glow. The elegant space has been used many times for art exhibits and fundraisers.
During the 2004 Junior Orange Bowl Youth Arts Celebration, which was sponsored by Allen Morris, 150 talented young artists submitted their interpretations of Alhambra Towers.
In addition, the Allen Morris family has the largest private collections of paintings by esteemed Florida landscape artist A.E. “Beanie” Backus, and the company uses originals and reproductions of his work in our properties.
The family also founded The American Sporting Arms and Art Museum and loans exhibits to other museums and galleries for display. Currently, 60 Parker hand-engraved shotguns are on display for the public at the Cody Museum in Wyoming.
We are excited to announce that our newest apartment complex in St. Petersburg, Florida, called The Hermitage Apartment Homes, will showcase a gallery dedicated to Backus’ work.
Also, there will be a resident gallery in the lobby where local artists can display their work. The Hermitage, so named in honor of the famed Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg, Russia, the city’s namesake, is located in the heart of a burgeoning art scene close to the Salvador Dali Museum and across the street from the newly planned Chihuly Museum and the Morean Arts Center.
We believe a company is more than the business they do. It is what they stand for. Our core values are to improve the lives of the people and the communities we touch. Our green initiatives accomplish this by designing people-friendly green spaces and developing sustainable projects that meet Energy Star or L.E.E.D. certification standards.
We are first to create a non-government LEED Certified office building in North Florida.
See this project in the USBC directory.
We are first to create a LEED Certified log structure executive retreat in America.
See “A Floridian’s Cabin Escape” by the Wall Street Journal.
We are first to create a LEED Certified multi-family project in St. Petersburg, FL.
See “Biggest new apartment building yet set for construction in downtown St. Petersburg” by the Tampa Bay Times. Allen Morris has achieved and maintained Energy Star Certification for our multi-tenant office buildings: Alhambra Towers in Coral Gables, Pembrook Commons in Maitland, FL, and 135 Executive Circle in Daytona Beach.
Allen Morris is an Accredited Management Organization (AMO) with Certified Property Managers (CPMs) and trained engineering staff to maintain energy efficient sustainable operations in all of its buildings. We constantly evaluate new technologies such as LED lighting and HVAC system improvements to continually improve energy efficiencies. We also encourage and implement recycling programs in our buildings.
We are honored to have donated two parks for public enjoyment to the City of Miami, which the city has named The Allen Morris Brickell Parks, located in the Brickell Avenue area of Miami. | 2019-04-21T04:25:21 | http://www.allenmorris.com/community/community-involvement/ |
Six artists and a museum curator will visually and critically respond to the language and stories on refugees and refugee policies, including the language that is often embedded in the books we find in libraries.
RISE (Refugees, Survivors and Ex-Detainees) is run and controlled by refugees, ex-detainees and asylum seekers. Our Arts Programs seek to reclaim and challenge dominant narratives about refugees, while highlighting issues which our communities face.
‘Vessels To A Story’ Exhibition Launch: Wednesday, 1 June, 6pm to 8pm. “This exhibition is not a celebration of ‘multiculturalism’, nor is it a celebration of Melbourne as a ‘melting pot’ of cultures”.
In this talk, Mohamed will discuss his practice of combining material and industrial processes with traditional modes of storytelling. Through his work, Mohamed has explored design and traditional craft practice. His works have been a combination of hand made crafts and newer technologies, such as 3D printing and digital modeling, with a major focus in researching our changing history.
Vietnamese refugees: Differences within the Diaspora.
Join Dominic and R-Coo as they discuss and compare notes on being an adoptee and a second generation Vietnamese refugee.
Real Humans? Making political sculpture for the streets.
Join local Melbourne artist V-T-R (Van T Rudd) as he shares his methods and challenges of making his unique, human-like sculptures for the streets. From political theory and pencil sketches, to construction, he hopes to leave you inspired and hungry for challenging conservative forces in society.
Rather than targeting Peter Dutton’s racist and xenophobic comment, the media and refugee sector in Australia and overseas responded by “profiling” refugees with degrees & social stability. One of those profiled was not a refugee, instead his grandparents were refugees – REALLY ?
What about those refugees who are from working class backgrounds who never had the opportunity to study in war torn countries? Are they less than any other refugees? What about those refugees caught in the conflict areas without educational opportunities, no opportunity to learn another language, some even cannot read or write their language. Are they less than any other refugees?.
Profiling refugees who have degrees and social stability is an act of classism and one way of saying “these are good refugees” and patronising others. Also, it does not deal with the issue of Dutton’s comments. Refugees are refugees, despite if they do or don’t possess skills, degrees or social stability. Journalists and the refugees sector must target Peter Dutton’s inherently racist comments on refugees rather than being abiding by the politicians agendas and feeding the ignorance of the masses.
RISE:Refugees, Survivors and ex-detainees is alarmed by Australian Immigration Minister Peter Dutton’s race baiting comment that refugees are “illiterate and innumerate in their own language” and would take “Australian jobs”.
Mr. Dutton’s comment is backed by none other than Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull and his Foreign Minister Julie Bishop, a perfect example of the ingrained racism in his government. Such fear mongering tactics feed into conservative Australia, inciting xenophobia and hatred and endangers the lives of our people. Furthermore, we are appalled at how refugees are referred to as commodities to serve the political and economic interests of the privileged.
RISE calls on Trade unions, migrant and refugee/asylum seeker organisations and members of the public to condemn the race baiting language as well as the abusive and divisive wedge tactics used by Australian politicians against refugees during successive election campaigns for over a decade in this country.
RISE Arts is excited to present the artwork of Mahmoud Salameh, a Palestinian-Syrian-Australian cartoonist, animation filmmaker, graphic artist and ex-detainee.
Now based in Sydney, Mahmoud has had years of experience working as a professional artist in Syria, Lebanon and Australia. He has worked for well-know Arabic newspapers and magazines, such as Al Safir and Al Adaab, and film production companies such as Spacetoons and Tiger Productions.
Through his work Mahmoud tackles issues of border imperialism and refugees, displaced populations, domestic issues in Syria and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Using his art as a medium for social change and reflecting on his own personal transnational experiences, Mahmoud’s pieces send a powerful social and political message that seek to challenge dominant narratives around occupation, displacement and resistance.
Please join us on Thursday, May 19 at 6:30pm for the launch of this exciting exhibition. There will a Q&A session and an auction with proceeds going back to the artist himself and to RISE. An exclusive screening of Mahmoud’s short-animation, ‘From Trouble to Trouble’ will also be screened on the night at 7pm.
RISE: Refugees, Survivors and Ex-detainees is alarmed by a proposal by a “refugee advocate” Natasha Blucher and the President of the Norfolk Island chamber of commerce,John Brown to sign a deal with the Australian government to traffick refugees held hostage in Nauru and Papua New Guinea (PNG).
We condemn so-called refugee advocates, the refugee sector and other organisations who are bottom feeders constantly coming up with abusive “solutions” that treat our people who simply arrived to this country to seek protection as a “problem”. In 2001, John Howard came up with the “Pacific Solution” where refugees were trapped in Nauru and PNG; in 2008 Kevin Rudd came up with the “Indonesian Solution” and in 2012 Julia Gillard came up with the Pacific Solution Mark II and reopened the internment camps in Nauru and Manus.
The Pacific Solution Mark II was implemented after a horrific, militaristic proposal called the No-Advantage policy, made by a panel of “experts” that included another refugee “advocate” called Paris Aristotle. Since then, 3 refugees have died after being trafficked by the Australian government to these islands and hundreds have been abused.
RISE requests the Norfolk Islands and its community not to fall into a trap by accepting this xenophobic proposal of mass incarceration of asylum seeker and refugees. One needs only to look at Manus and Nauru to see what the consequences would be for our people.
RISE does not support any governments or organisations that take us back to square one and continue discriminating against our community. We demand that this proposal be withdrawn and organisations that claim to support us, condemn this proposal and take steps to end it. | 2019-04-23T12:57:20 | http://riserefugee.org/2016/05/ |

For years, OPPO has been continuously introducing breakthrough technologies to the smartphone industry. Most of which will most likely define the future devices that the company will create.
If you’ll recall, OPPO announced its exclusive 5x Dual Camera Zoom at MWC 2017 in Barcelona. This feature uses a telephoto and wide angle lens. The former applies a periscope-like structure, wherein its angle is rotated at 90 degrees, giving the lens an ample of space for a deep zoom.
This new construction also benefits dual-camera performance and at the same time, allows the device to be as thin as possible. The 5x dual camera module is in fact, only 5.7mm thick, that’s 10 times thinner than a traditional 2x optical zoom lens in other smartphones.
OPPO’s VOOC Flash Charge has been widely acknowledged as the safest and fastest charging technology in the world. The most iconic version being Super VOOC Flash Charge, launched at MWC 2016. Based on a brand new algorithm and a custom battery designed by OPPO, it allows a 2,500mAh battery to be fully charged in just 15 mins.
Back in January of this year, OPPO also announced the 5G pilot program in cooperation with Qualcomm Technologies. On May 10, the OPPO Global Research Institute in Shenzen successfully showcased the world’s first 5G Video Call using 3D Structured Light Technology. Along with 5G, these can carry potentially lifestyle-changing innovations in many areas, such as gaming and AR.
OPPO is committed to provide innovative application scenarios for new technologies down the road, with a particular focus on the needs of users, for consumers around the world.

SubscribeEnter your email address below to receive updates each time we publish new content. This is difficult to say right now as the first production electric cars with lithium ion battery technology are still very new, but most people agree they will last at least eight years before they reach what is called the 'end of life' – Vauxhall even has an eight-year warranty on the battery in its Ampera.But ‘end of life’ doesn’t mean the battery will stop working at that moment – ‘end of life’ is actually the point at which batteries reach 80% efficiency, so they'll still work pretty well for years after that. It does not matter how much you paid for your car or how advanced it is, but chances are that you are using a lead-acid battery.
Given that a quality car battery is expensive, you will obviously want it to serve you for days on end. After every 5000km, it is important to have your battery tested for voltage, that is, does it still discharge the required 12 Volts? Every few months, you need to give your battery terminals a rub down with a wire brush to keep them clean. Ensure that you purchase one that comes with heating options, as it will go a long way in shielding your car battery from the effects brought about by freezing and sub-freezing.
If you are storing the battery, then you have to make sure that the charge always stays at optimum, that is, 12.5 volts.
The capacity of an electric car battery depends on its size and the materials with which it was made.
Batteries with higher capacities are more expensive, and in some electric car manufacturers, such as Tesla Motors, you can choose which battery to have in your car.
Depending on your particular electric vehicle needs, there are different batteries you can choose from.
If you have an old electric car battery you would like to get rid of or recycle, you can't just set it out on the curb for the trash collector to haul it away for you. When you purchase a new electric car battery, you can often trade the old battery into the shop. In most cases, there is no paperwork to fill out and you can simply leave it with one of the shop's technicians.
We’re breaking new ground with the fleets of electric-powered and autonomous cars coming our way in the next 2 to 10 years. Another interesting question is about the lithium-ion batteries in electrical vehicles. How long will they last? Tesla Motors has a reassuring answer to the question of e-car battery longevity, according to Electrek. With all the power in reserve in Tesla models, those figures sound pretty good, but the company is going further.

Jo Borras I've been involved in motorsports and tuning since 1997, and write for a number of blogs in the Important Media network.

April 27, 2016 by Community Honda The service center at Community Honda is here to help you with all your maintenance and repair needs. If your battery is three years of age or older, it’s probably time to get an upgrade or at least have your battery tested.
Come visit Community Honda and let us check your battery’s condition and charge so you can drive with confidence! April 26, 2016 by Community Honda Here at Community Honda of Orland Park we have some important information that every driver should know, so read on for a few tips from the experts at our Tire Center on safety. Filed Under: Honda Parts & Service, Vehicle Maintenance Advice How Long Do Car Batteries Last? October 30, 2013 by Community Honda Car batteries usually operate at full strength for about four years. There are a few things that can have a direct negative impact on the lifespan of a car battery. Of course, if you bring your vehicle in to an auto service center for maintenance, make sure they inspect your battery whenever you bring your car in for an oil change – particularly if the battery is nearing the end of its expected lifespan. If you think your battery may need to be replaced, feel free to bring your car in to Community Honda of Orland Park.
As long as you have jumper cables, getting a dead battery to start shouldn’t be too difficult. To start, get the front ends of the car as close to each other as possible while still leaving room to work. Find the positive terminal on the dead battery, and attach the positive (red) end of one jumper cable. Now take one end of the negative jumper cable (black clamps) and attach one end to the good battery’s negative terminal. Now, just start the functional car and let it run for a few minutes, then start the car with the depleted battery. If the car still doesn’t do anything, you’ll want to get it towed to the Community Honda service center, where our highly-trained technicians will get you back on the road in no time at all. October 1, 2013 by Community Honda If you’ve ever tried to decode the strange string of numbers and letters stamped on the side of your car’s tires, chances are you ended up entirely mystified – and for good reason. There is quite a bit of information encoded in that short string of characters, but it’s not too difficult to figure out what it’s trying to tell you. The first number is the measurement is in millimeters and denotes the tire’s sectional width, or the distance from one sidewall to the other. If you just need a new set of tires, it’s easy enough to just bring your car into your local Orland Park auto service center.
September 4, 2013 by Community Honda In order to stay safe on the road, it’s important to keep your tires in good condition. The easiest way to find out if it’s time to replace your tires is to check their tread depth. In extreme cases, excessively worn tires can cause blowouts, or a loss of control in emergency braking situations.
Most tires need replacement because of wear, but some need replacement simply because they’re old. Precious metals insides the chambers of the car attract and catch these harmful compounds as they’re trying to escape, trapping them.
I really hope that most people are not here because you wanted to know what was stolen off the underside of your vehicle. Besides the obvious safety precautions for not getting your catalytic converter stolen, there are several ways you can detect a potential problem in your emissions system. If you’re having emission problems, feel free to make an appointment with Community Honda.
Filed Under: General Automotive Information, Vehicle Maintenance Advice What Kind of Oil Should I Put in my Car?
If you’d like to understand a little more about what your oil does for your car, read on. Many cars have a Tire Pressure Monitoring System in place for safety, but checking your air pressure is a good habit to get into regardless.
The first step to checking the air pressure in your tires is to find out what PSI your tires should be at. If you open your car’s manual to the contents, you should find a section about air tire pressure. When the time comes once again to get your vehicle’s oil changed, the question of whether to use synthetic or conventional motor oil is inevitable.
When it comes to which option is more environmentally friendly, it becomes a little unclear which one is your best bet. Synthetics also have been proven to generate less resistance, which make them more efficient. More sustainable options are also in the works, such as oil derived from vegetable oil, but that also creates it own set of problems like wasting crops needed for food. If you are having a difficult time decided which type of oil to use, contact Community Honda or check with your vehicle’s manufacturer to see what they suggest. The fourth generation of the iconic Range Rover made its global public debut at the Paris International Motor Show. In fact, some Ford Ranger EVs from the late 1990s with less efficient lead acid and NiMH batteries are still going, nearly 15 years later.Lithium ion should fare a lot better, which is just as well because a new battery is expensive right now – they’re the major reason electric cars cost so much to buy – but prices will fall as more electric cars hit the road. You should prepare some baking soda paste, dip the wire brush in it and then scrub your terminals gently, of course after removing the connectors. To successfully shield your car battery from soaking in too much heat, use a battery wrap, which goes a long way with protecting your battery from the damages emitted by your car’s hood. The best material to make an electric car battery at the moment is lithium, but this is also the most expensive variety.
One is A123 Systems—the first company in the United States to sell electric car batteries, they contracted with Chrysler in 2009 to supply the lithium ion batteries.
It is slowly becoming easier to find electric car battery manufacturers in the United States, but it is still easier to find them internationally.
A lithium ion battery or caustic lead acid batteries are toxic waste that the local waste disposal service is not equipped to handle. Many service centers or repair shops take old car batteries in on trade when installing new ones.
On this site you can simply enter the type of battery you want to recycle, along with your zip code, and you'll be shown a list of locations in your area where you can drop off your old electric car battery for recycling.
The recycling agent or drop off center will then dispose of the battery properly or send it to a battery remanufacturing plant so it can be refurbished and used again. Sure, they’re rechargeable, but so are laptop lithium-ion batteries, and we know they degrade and eventually wear out. All Tesla’s come with an 8-year, transferable, unlimited warranty on the batteries and the drive train. The survey used data from 495 vehicles that traveled 12,588,649 miles in total, and 17,214 miles per year on average. Tesla is partnering with Dalhousie University in Halifax, Nova Scotia, to find ways to improve lithium-ion battery cell longevity.

If you’re wondering about the condition of your battery, we can offer some helpful tips that can make sure you won’t be stranded due to a dead battery. It’s relatively easy to check your battery if you have a battery with a translucent section where you can see the fluid. Battery life cycles are generally three to five years, so pushing it beyond that range is dangerous. Remember that your tires might seem simple, but they’re one of the most important parts of your car – they are, after all, the only part of your car that touches the ground! Remove any bit of glass or other debris stuck in the treads to prevent possible future problems. If your tires have wear on one edge, then you probably need to change your tire rotation schedule.
You can schedule a service appointment with our mechanics right now to make sure your tires are performing perfectly – we can do any balancing, rotation, or tire replacement or repair necessary for your vehicle. If you live in a particularly hot climate or you tend to take short, infrequent trips, your battery may need to be replaced after just a few years. We can give your car a thorough inspection to check for other possible issues and take care of any necessary maintenance or repair. If you don’t have a set of cables in your trunk, don’t delay – as soon as you find a kind person willing to jump your car for you, drive to your nearest auto parts store and pick up your own jumper cables. Finally, take the other black clamp and attach it to a piece of exposed metal somewhere under the hood of the non-functioning car. The tire size code is precisely that – a code – and it doesn’t give up its secrets as easily as you might hope. But if you’re looking to find out a bit more about your tires, the tire size code is a great place to start. Proper inflation and periodic tire rotations can do a lot to keep your tires in suitable shape, but even the most well-maintained tires eventually need replacing. You can purchase an inexpensive tread depth gauge from any hardware store or auto parts store, but the easiest way to check is with a penny. Just schedule a service appointment online, bring your vehicle in, and we’ll have a new set of tires on your car in no time!
As you’re working towards the front, you should see a metallic cylinder box on the pipe. When your engine misfires, unspent vaporized gasoline travels through the emissions system and through the catalytic converter. While changing the oil is definitely one of the most important vehicle services, there is a lot of confusion surrounding it. Without it, it wouldn’t run too smoothly, and breakdown and disaster will soon follow. Friction means heat, especially when you’re running constantly anywhere from 3,000 rpm to 5,000 rpm. Different oils have different weights and densities and are designed to go into different sized engines.
The “W” just means “winter,” indicating that the oil was designed to function in lower temperatures.
Driving with soft tires increases the amount of emissions your car gives off, wastes gas and therefore lowering your fuel efficiency, and are safer to drive on. When tires are not properly inflated, traction abilities are impaired for hazardous driving conditions, and your tire is also more likely to fail (or blow out) while on the expressway. PSI stands for pounds per square inch, and is a method of measuring how much air pressure is held within your tire. Any auto parts store will have a huge selection of tire pressure gauges, and it’s important to get an accurate one. Most gas stations have air hoses for public use, and sometimes tire repair places will have air available for use as well.
There are several advantages and disadvantages to either choice based on a variety of factors like price and environmental impact. Although conventional oil is derived from petroleum, synthetics are still made from chemicals that are also not great for the environment. Because a vehicle that uses synthetic oil offers more horsepower, the car will be able to use slightly less fuel to do the same amount of work. With a synthetic blend, you get a small amount of the benefits of a synthetic but with a lower price like conventional motor oil.
While each type, including those that are still being developed, has benefits, you have to also weigh the consequences as well.
And Nissan says you're going to have to replace individual modules in the battery pack, rather than an entire battery, which will cost hundreds of ?s rather than thousands (or tens of thousands, if some reports will have you believe). Granted, every battery has a lifespan, but many batteries go down before they have lived their full life.
With that in mind, you will know when you need to recharge the battery when the lights start dimming or when the car fails to start.
If you live in South Africa or other countries where they experience winters, you will need to protect your battery from freezing.
Patrick admires the resilient spirit of the African people and would love to see all of Africa on wheels. Some vehicles require 12 to 24 batteries, depending on what they require for distance and speed.
Electrek noted that CEO Elon Musk has stated Tesla has a battery back in its lab with more than 500,000 simulated miles still operating at over 80 percent of its original capacity. If you see a warning light on, you should always check it out, but sometimes, any or all of your indicator lights that show could be related to a low or dead battery! You should probably check your tire’s pressure more often if the temperature or weather has changed dramatically or you’ve noticed any change in performance or ride. If you have erratic wear on other parts of the tire, then you might be having alignment or suspension issues.
Put the penny, head down, in the tread, and if the tread does not come up over the top of Lincoln’s head, then you need to replace your tires.
The frustrating thing about having your battery die is that you usually don’t see it coming – one day it seems to be working just fine, and the next it’s entirely useless. You can extend the lifetime of your battery by taking the time to inspect it every few months. If a technician at your local auto service center recommends a new battery, it’s usually best to go ahead and get it replaced.
The order in which you undertake these steps is important, so follow the instructions closely. Make sure you let the car run for a good half hour or so in order to completely recharge the battery. Just about every car on the road – except for big trucks – will have a “P” designation in their tire’s code. That number indicates the length of the sidewall height as a percentage of the sectional width.
In addition to being a safety hazard, worn tires affect the efficiency and performance of a car, so there’s a direct financial benefit to getting new tires.
With the heads side facing you, stick the penny between your tire treads with Lincoln’s head facing down. Without sufficient tread depth, your tires can loose contact with the road in rainy weather, causing a dangerous loss of control. If your tires are more than six years old, it’s probably time for a replacement – and tires over ten years old present a significant risk.
Originally developed by a french chemist to combat smog production in Los Angeles, the catalytic converter has been helping to cut back on vehicle air pollution since the 1950s. Check your tire pressure at least monthly, but preferably more often than that, to ensure you’re getting the most out of your tires. This can cause an accident at high speeds, so keeping your tire pressure at the proper inflation is important for safety! It’s literally the force exerted by all the little air molecules bouncing around inside your tire. If your tires are different than what originally came on the car, make sure you look on the tire itself for the PSI.
When you press the air hose to your valve stem, make sure you’re pressing firm and at a 90-degree angle to avoid damaging the valve stem. Here we will break down the positives and negatives of each option so it is easier for you to make that decision. Synthetic oil still lasts longer than the synthetic blend, though, so the lower price may not necessarily be worth it.
Usually, if the battery is, say, about 2 years old, you may need to recharge it if you have trouble starting the car. Even if you can't get a few dollars for the old battery, the garage and service center should be able to dispose of the old battery for you at no charge.
The way they’re built or tucked into vehicle chassis, switching them for new ones sounds like a considerable service effort and an even more considerable expense. The survey showed that on average the Model S lost about 5 percent of their power in the first 50,000 miles and that the degradation then slowed. Hot or cold climate variations don’t seem to play a role, neither does the type of driving (range vs.
There are, however, ways to predict when your battery will die so that you can replace it before it gives out completely. If the terminals appear to be dirty, you should clean the terminals with water and baking soda. Car batteries aren’t particularly expensive, and it’s a small price to pay for not having to deal with a dead battery at an inopportune moment.
A “T” indicates that the wheel is a temporary spare – which shouldn’t be on your car unless you’re on your way to an automotive service center. While pure gasoline would reduce down to simply CO2 and water, gasoline is chock full of impurities. You can find out what type of oil you should put in your car in your vehicle’s manual, as well as a huge drove of other important information. Oil manufacturers add special detergents to their oil to help pick up these particles and keep them away from moving parts.
For knowing when to exactly change your oil, go by the interval listed in your vehicle’s manual. Manual or digital doesn’t matter as much as accuracy, so do your research and get one that you can count on.
We offer many different services at Community Honda, and frequently offer specials on tires and tire repair, so come down during our convenient hours and get your tires checked. There is still an advantage to using synthetic because it can last up to three times longer, allowing you to dump less of it per year. You can also schedule a service appointment online now and let our team of service experts take a good look at your battery to make sure it’s ready to roll! If you notice corrosion or staining on the battery, chances are your battery is leaking and it’s time for a replacement.
These impurities get released into the air as nitrous and sulfurous oxides, the ingredients to smog.
Having sustained emission problems can ruin your cat, as well as cause major vehicle problems, including vehicle fires. If your exhaust isn’t in the parameters of normal exhaust, then the warning comes on.
If this is different than what the manufacturer’s tires are, then write it down in your manual for easy reference. After eight years the engine is a bit old and tired, perhaps a bit smokey, and doesn't have the same horsepower it had when new. If you don’t want to check this yourself, you can always bring your car into your local Orland Park Honda dealership and have the professionals check your tires. Following this up with a vehicle diagnostic can help you to avoid more expensive repairs, as well as a failure to a future emissions test.

A presentation in Portugal earlier this year highlighted the international role Orkney companies are playing in the evolution of marine renewables.
After working with 12 companies developing tidal and wave technologies, Aquatera was well placed to advise Portuguese Government ministers and business leaders interested in developing energy generation at sea.
"The experience we've built up in Orkney meant we could offer practical advice on the opportunities and the potential risks they face," said managing director Gareth Davies.
"We’ve developed a good understanding of the challenges involved in developing and deploying marine renewables – and the solutions needed to overcome those challenges."
Aquatera has played wide ranging roles on projects such as the installation of Irish company OpenHydro’s tidal turbine at the European Marine Energy Centre (EMEC), It has provided advice and expertise in areas as diverse as site selection; predicting wave conditions, safe operation of vessels and jack-up rigs, support during positioning operations, underwater inspection, seabed and wildlife surveys, control of marine operations, and risk assessment procedures.
"As a company, our experience has firm foundations in the offshore oil and gas, shipping, fish farming and marine recreation activities," Dr Davies explained.
"We understand how a development can affect the environment - and how the environment can affect a development. We also have extensive first-hand experience of many coastal waters, locally and further afield."
This has led to the company being invited to consider opportunities for wave and tidal energy generation in countries such as Canada, Chile and Taiwan.
With global experience already in areas such as the Mediterranean, the Caspian Sea, Sakhalin Island, the Falklands, the Faroes, the Baltic, West Africa and the Far East, Aquatera is keen to expand its international activities still further.

A jealous husband hacked his wife’s hair off and chopped at her neck with a meat cleaver before turning the weapon on the family dog in their Deepdale home.
Fiona Edgar, 43, thought her husband was trying to cut her head off as he chopped at her neck with the weapon, a court heard.
Army veteran David Edgar, 52, from Preston, has been jailed for seven and a half years for the attack at the home the couple shared in Tees Street, Deepdale.
Before the attack, Edgar told his adult stepson he was “going to Strangeways” as he searched the house for a suitable weapon to use on his wife.
He later said he cut his wife’s hair off because it was “her pride and joy”.
Jailing him, Judge Robert Altham said: “There was a significant degree of premeditation. You hunted around the house and settled upon what must have been the most ferocious weapon you could find.
Edgar denied causing grievous bodily harm to his wife but was convicted after a trial.
In a victim impact statement, Mrs Edgar said: “At the time I thought he was trying to kill me.
The jury heard on January 2 the couple had been drinking gin when Mrs Edgar started winding her husband up about another man she had been in contact with and her disappointment in their marriage.
She told Edgar a younger man would be able to give her children and said their marriage of ten years “was not as she envisaged”.
Edgar went upstairs and spoke to his son as he searched for a screwdriver to attack his wife. He then went to the kitchen knife drawer and picked up the meat cleaver before grabbing his wife by her hair and forcing her to her knees.
He hacked away at her hair, which she told the court was her pride and joy, and swung the blade at her neck and face, although she was able to protect her face with her hands.
In the confusion, the family dog, a terrier called Ice, bit Mrs Edgar on her leg, and Edgar swung the meat cleaver at the dog, leaving him with a wound which needed stitches and treatment at the vets.
Edgar then washed the meat cleaver and put it back in the kitchen drawer. When it was recovered by police later it was still wet, the court heard.
During the trial at Preston Crown Court, Mrs Edgar was allowed to give evidence wearing a hat as she had shaved off her remaining hair following the attack.
Edgar was convicted of causing grievous bodily harm with intent and also pleaded guilty to a charge of animal cruelty.
Judge Altham said: “The violence you used was utterly gratuitous and uncalled for but this was an offence that arose out of a particular set of circumstances.
“She (your wife) was at pains to point out this was not a relationship which was characterised by violence from you.
“The gratuitous degradation of Fiona Edgar, the cutting of her hair which she regarded as her pride and joy, was a particularly degrading action.
He jailed Edgar for seven and a half year for GBH with two months to run concurrently for causing unnecessary suffering to the dog. | 2019-04-22T00:49:45 | https://www.blogpreston.co.uk/2017/08/husband-attacked-wife-with-meat-cleaver-at-deepdale-home/ |
Soprano sang highest ever note by a human, and also the most notes in a single second.
On April 11 Russian vocalist Svetlana Feodulova set two Guinness world records while performing Mozart's Rondo during the Show Opera concert in Russia's cultural capital, St. Petersburg. Not only did she belt out the highest note ever recorded by a human, but she also sang 13 notes in one second - nailing another record.
The singer is no stranger to setting records. In 2010 Feodulova officially became "the highest coloratura soprano in the world." In 2013 she also participated in the popular Russian TV show The Voice (Golos in Russian) winning many fans in the process.
Born in Moscow in 1987 Feodulova studied music at home and abroad. As she said (link in Russian) in a recent interview, the key to maintaining her outstanding voice is a balanced between silence, diet, and sleep.
"Following such a regime helps the voice stay fresh," she explained. "It's also necessary to keep an eye on one's general state of health. One shouldn't feel anxious, try to remain level in stressful situations." She also revealed that she’ll soon open her own vocal academy in St. Petersburg. Next month a new video will be released for her new song: An anthem for the 2018 World Cup in Russia.

When I initially discovered about DoubleU Casino, I was a bit unimpressed.
There were virtually no DoubleU Casino commentaries in the media, and I didnt really know what to think of it.
Well, is it even possible to gain Free Chips if you play DoubleU Casino? Is there a reasonable number of opportunities to become the best at the game? Do we have any DoubleU CasinoFree Chips?
However, after setting up an account and practising for a reasonable amount of time, everything became clear.
It is a proper DoubleU Casino that allows you to play for days with Free Chips. It has a lot of great possibilities. And its waiting for you!
The thing that sets DoubleU Casino apart from other games is the opportunity to gain Free Chips. | 2019-04-21T15:11:13 | https://40kfom.com/2019/04/17/doubleu-casino-7331596-free-chips-is-it-worth-your-while-74/ |

I have made the difficult decision today to request that Orange Lounge Radio be removed from Stitcher Radio. Unfortunately, with the system that Stitcher uses, pulling our show onto their server, somewhere several months ago, our episodes started disappearing. As I've mentioned on previous episodes of Orange Lounge Radio and have mentioned on twitter, this has caused loyal listeners of the show to think that we have stopped producing them. Although I am all for getting our show out there to as many people as want to hear it, I cannot allow a platform to represent our show that won't accurately reflect the current status of our show. Attempts to correct this via our contact, via listener contact have continued to fail, and so I no longer believe Stitcher Radio should continue to list our show only to disappoint those looking for it.
Or literally any other podcasting app that isn't Stitcher.
Thanks for your support of Orange Lounge Radio. | 2019-04-23T10:49:02 | http://www.vognetwork.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=9&p=4653 |
Explain allows you to select a section of data and receive automated, machine driven, explanations of what is contributing to the data that was selected.
On a line chart you might see a spike, a dip, a rise, or a fall, using explain you can figure out which values in which dimensions are responsible for the observed trend.
Clicking on the star button in the highlight menu activates the Explain feature.
After selecting a feature of interest (a spike in the above example) a series of explanations are presented with possible actions.
In this case we can exclude the user Bearcat and immediately we see that the selected spike disappears.
Explain is not limited to the line chart. You can select any slice of data of interest and receive a list of driving factors.
Explain also has a specific mode to work when time comparison is enabled - Explain will analyze the difference between the current values and the comparison values.
Explain is domain agnostic, it builds a model of your data on the fly when activated and can therefore be used within any filter.
Change compare - suitable when a comparison is chosen it compares and finds the contributing factors in the current value vs the comparison. Change compare is automatically chosen when compare is selected.
Trend analysis - suitable when selecting a trend such as a spike, dip, rise, or fall. It will automatically detect the trend and then find the contributing factors.
Breakdown - suitable when selecting a singe slice of data (without specific reference). It will find the contributing factors to the selected slice.
The appropriate algorithm is automatically chosen given the selected data and other factors such as the filters and whether a comparison is used. | 2019-04-21T18:11:50 | https://docs.imply.io/cloud/visualize/explain |

We do not have a transgender bathroom. So don’t be caught in the wrong one. Thank you, Bob.
Schonauer had joined Freedom Oklahoma executive director Troy Stevenson at the roadside restaurant earlier in the day to verify that the sign existed. They had received a tip and ultimately posted a picture of the sign on Facebook.
But at the cash register Wednesday night, Warner’s employees praised him as a kind and wonderful man.
As Warner gave his TV interview, Flower and her coworkers answered a phone that rang every few minutes. Aggravated and seemingly intoxicated voices rang out on the other end.
Waitress Deanna Schultz sighed before going to clean the restrooms at the end of her shift.
Warner’s wife, Margie, chimed in.
What Bob Warner may not understand is how his sign — and particularly its emphatic underlining — has been interpreted by Schonauer, Stevenson and the offended parties dialing his catfish barn. He explained his intention in putting the sign up in 2016 after a man rushed into a Dallas-area bathroom to question a woman’s gender.
Warner said he only has the two bathrooms and can’t add a separate bathroom to be designated for trans patrons, even though that’s something no government agency or diner has asked him to do.
Warner’s explanation may not end the irate phone calls, and it may not be accepted by some. Asked if he worried about what might happen to him owing to media coverage of his sign, Warner said no.
“God will take care of me,” he said.
Schonauer said she hoped Warner would be willing to meet and talk about the issue further, perhaps broadening the octogenarian’s perspective.
Warner said he had only heard one complaint about the sign previously, but he said others have taken pictures of it and asked for copies.
“I wouldn’t know a transgendered person if I saw one, and it wouldn’t bother me at all,” Warner said.
Warner, who opened the restaurant three years ago at age 79, said he doesn’t particularly care about being popular. When it does come to what he’d like to see happen in Oklahoma and the United States as a whole, he focused on the economy.
“I would like to see a lot of people get their jobs back and the economy go forward,” he said. Warner runs a second restaurant location in Edmond. He ran a doughnut shop years earlier.
Schonauer identified the concept of “work” as a way Oklahomans from different backgrounds find common ground.
If Schonauer and Warner ever do sit down for that beer or coffee, they might be able to swap stories about trying to help others. Schonauer served as an Oklahoma City police officer and is now about to finish a master’s in social work.
Warner, an Edmond native, has a broad work background as well.
After a pregnant pause, Warner continued.
He told the story of meeting a woman in a restaurant who now cleans his house.
Warner shook his head thinking about the woman he met about five years earlier.
Schonauer said she knows that good people can often have blind spots in their lives regarding one issue or another. She said she hoped Warner would be open to listening to her perspective. | 2019-04-26T14:16:33 | https://nondoc.com/2017/03/16/transgender-bathroom-sign-opportunity/ |
Sifu Ho was of the second generation of Yip Man's students.
He spent his life as a student of Wing Chun and was one of the few men to complete the entire system under Yip Man.
Sifu Fong or Augustine Fong was born on the island of Macao, off the coast of southern China.
His instructor was the honorable Wing Chun master, Ho Kam Ming. Master Ho, a top student of the late grand master Yip Man, had, at that time, introduced the style to the Macao area. Augustine Fong, without a second thought, became one of his first students. | 2019-04-19T11:22:42 | http://www.lovelandkarateclub.com/wing.htm |

Stonington, CT – Aaren Simoncini plans to open The Beer’d Brewing Company to hearken back to long gone days when beer was purchased from neighborhood breweries.
Simoncini’s self-proclaimed “small” brewery is scheduled to open in mid Sept and will provide local craft beer enthusiasts with a constantly changing selection in limited runs. A business model Simoncini hopes will satisfy beer lovers’ thirst for variety.
“Don’t just stand out in the crowd, stand somewhere else,” says Simoncini, who hopes to serve what he feels is a geographically underdeveloped portion of the state’s craft beer industry.
The CT Beer Trail recently had the chance to chat with Simoncini about his plans, influences and general thoughts about local beer. The following is the list of questions and answers are an unfiltered look at the man behind the Beer’d Brewing Company and his aspirations.
Q: Why are you opening the Beer’d Brewing Company?
A: My drive to open The Beer’d Brewing Company has always been the result of my inability to settle for the expected. Everyone in life expects you to take a certain path, and while you may deviate slightly from said path, it is never too far. The Beer’d Brewing Company is my way of drawing outside the lines. When you look at the “beer map” of CT, there is a giant void in the Eastern section. Really when it comes down to it, Willi Brew and Cottrell are the only ones here. I want to create a company that is a throwback to the time when people purchased their daily beer from a small brewer down the street in South Eastern Connecticut.
Q: What will set you apart from your peers, what will you bring to the state’s craft beer community?
A: Because my facility will be so small, it will make it very easy to produce a wide variety of ales. Where larger brewers in the state may produce flagships and seasonals only, I plan to constantly rotate what is available from The Beer’d Brewing Company. I feel that craft beer drinkers are serial samplers and I plan to provide them with the variety they crave.
Q: What experience and background do you have in brewing?
A: I began my craft beer experience in college when I took a class called “Beers of the World”. The class was designed to expose students to the entire range of beers from around the world. There was a home brewing demonstration at the end of the course and that’s where I first learned that it was feasible to brew beer at home. After school in Rochester, NY, I moved back to CT for a full time job, and it was decided that I needed a time consuming hobby. That’s where home brewing came into my life. I very quickly became enthralled in the hobby. I moved from brewing with extract to using grain very quickly. I was at the point where I was formulating all my own recipes and brewing as often as possible. It wasn’t enough for me so I approached Cottrell in Pawcatuck, CT. After taking an impromptu tour with Charles Surney, the head brewer, I asked if I could come and watch him brew. He said I couldn’t come watch, but instead I could come help.
The rest is history. I scheduled as much time as I could away from my day job and volunteered that time at the brewery. As of recent I have not been able to spend much time there due to the planning process that comes with opening my own facility. They were extremely welcoming to me, and I cannot thank them enough.
Q: What will you brew? Set recipes? Seasonals?
A: The first beer that is set on the regular rotation is our Belgian Wit. It’s very dry, in the 5%abv range, 4.1 SRM, and very refreshing. The yeast runs the show as far as flavor profile, and there are also hints of curaçao orange peel involved. Other recipes up our sleeve for immediate release include an Oatmeal Stout, Saison and an IPA. Like I previously said, our small size lends itself to experimentation so if there is one takeaway from this; it’s to expect variety from The Beer’d Brewing Company.
Q: Who are you brewing influences?
A: This is a great question because I have two very solid influences! Rogue is my number one influence. Everything from their marketing to their involvement in the farm to brew kettle movement fascinates me. They consistently put out world class beers, while being very creative. I really love their clean flavor profiles and John Maier is a rock star of the craft brewing world!
The second most influential brewery for me is Allagash. They have done fantastic things as far as main-streaming the Belgian style of beer in America. Also, the last time I visited their facility, I saw their barrel aging room and was very impressed with not only it, but also the fact that they have a functioning coolship out back for spontaneous fermentation. Again I think experimentation is paramount in the craft beer world, and while some breweries have been satisfied to produce a few beers, these two are constantly releasing epic beers.
Q: Where will your brewery be and why did you choose that location?
A: The Beer’d Brewing Company currently calls The American Velvet Mill in Stonington home. The 2100 square foot space located at 22 Bayview Ave was picked not only due to zoning and utilities, but also due to its rich history. The American Velvet Mill was exactly as it sounds, a mill that produced velvet. Its connection with the town was very important as it employed a large amount of locals. Over time it has changed hands and served different purposes.
Establishing The Beer’d Brewing Company there is a way to revisit its rich manufacturing history, and hopefully rekindle its strong community ties.
Q: Will you be open for tours and tastings? When?
A: We do have plans to open our tasting room for tours and samples weekly. When we open, Friday evenings, Saturday and Sunday afternoons are slated for tours, tastings and growler hours. We want to see consumers as much as possible, face to face, and this will be one way to do so on a regular basis. One of the biggest outlets for experimental and new beers will be via growler hours, so we encourage anyone interested to visit on a regular basis once we open.
Q: Will your beer be available in package stores and bars?
A: Initially the main retail channel for our beers will be via the tasting room growler fills, and bars/restaurants. Anyone looking to keep up with what’s available and where, is encouraged to check our Facebook, website, and Twitter on a regular basis. Eventually we also plan to bottle condition seasonals in larger format bottles, but that is a little way off for us.
Q: What are your overall impressions on the current state of craft beer in Connecticut and what is your vision for its future? How will your brewery help get the community there?
A: I feel that the craft beer industry has come a very long way in the last few years. Support is now blatantly apparent among consumers and they seem to be thirsty for more. It doesn’t just seem to be support for craft in general though, I also think it’s amazing how much support has cropped up for domestic craft breweries in CT. I plan to join the scene, and help to fill the void that is Eastern CT. Cottrell and Willi Brew have done a fantastic job and I will be honored to serve Eastern CT with them. Also, I can’t wait to become an active member of the new CT Craft Brewers Guild. I feel that it is very important to organize as a guild to work together on things like equality with CT wine producers, event promotion and beer tourism in general.
Q: Will you embrace the CT Brewery Trail concept and make the Beer’d Brewing Co. a destination for tourists and beer travelers?
A: The CT Brewery Trail is the best thing since malted barley to happen for CT based brewers. I haven’t even opened yet and I fully embrace the concept. It is important for all domestic brewers to work as one when it comes to promoting beer tourism. I would love to see our CT based craft beer community reach a status similar to VT or Oregon. I think we are listed at 33 in the US for breweries per capita, and I don’t see that as anything but room to grow for the breweries in this state. | 2019-04-20T06:24:39 | https://pingroof.com/the-beerd-brewing-company-aims-to-be-your-local-brewery/ |
i totally agree! There’s 2 Tri Peaks and no Mahjong, except for holiday which is difficult to see the pictures on the cubes. I don’t like that game. I always played Mahjong to unwind and relax and now cant. Not fair HSN. Please bring it back! | 2019-04-24T02:05:59 | https://community.hsn.com/forums/hsn-arcade/mahjong/296274/ |
As I was driving home this evening, I could occasionally see the clouds to the west starting to be lit up by the setting sun. There are very few places on my relatively short commute with a clear, unobstructed view of the sky. Unless the clouds are high in the sky it’s not really worth stopping to take a picture. When I got to Norbeck Road, though, with the sunset in my rear view mirror, I stopped and took a dozen or so pictures. By the time I got home, it was done, so I’m glad I stopped when I did. I love the orange flare coming up the middle of this photograph.
Cathy and I went to work together today because the van was in the shop, having lost its serpentine belt in the rain on Saturday. Cathy likes to go to an exercise class on Mondays so we stayed for that. Before her class, however, at about 4:45, she called to ask if I could see the sunset. My office window faces north but I could see color out to the left. I took a few pictures from there and then went to the large conference room on the west side of the building on the next floor up and took some pictures from there. The color ws through the trees but it was really different to any sunset I’ve seen, as least anything in recent memory. To say is was spectacular is too simple. Also, this photo doesn’t really convey the overall feel, which was somewhat eerie. Donna, who works near the conference room asked if I had been outside. She said something strange seemed to be going on. I said, “It’s sunset, it happens every evening around this time.” But I was joking, this really was a strange sunset, and beautiful.
Sometimes you can see things lining up to make a nice sunset. Of course, even when things look right, it doesn’t happen, but this evening I could tell it was coming and it came. I took a few pictures of the clouds before there were any colors, just in case, but the colors came. The color extended pretty much over the entire sky from west to east. This photo was taken looking almost straight up with a 10mm lens (which on my APS-C-sensor camera is equivalent to a 16mm lens on a full frame sensor). The top of the tree showing at the top of the photo is behind me.
When it comes to taking a picture every day, there are—as you’ve probably noticed—when I have a hard time finding something to photograph. I could easily skip those days and no one would really miss them. On the other hand, by forcing myself to take pictures every day, I get out more often than I would. If I could say to myself, “It doesn’t matter if you go out today. You can just skip today like you’ve skipped other days.” But when I haven’t skipped other days, that won’t work.
Days when there are events are easier because I generally know I’ll be able to take pictures of people. Tonight was such an event and consequently I didn’t bother taking pictures all day. Instead I worked in my basement, sorting old papers and things (mine this time). I was pretty sure there would be people I know that I could photograph in the evening. Then, after driving to Bethesda with Cathy and Margaret, and after they went inside, I parked the car and saw the sunset. I still took pictures inside but these are going to be enjoyed by more people than pictures of people that a lot of folks don’t know. Not that a lot of folks actually see them, but whatever.
A little over five weeks ago I posted a picture of a waxing crescent moon, seen through trees and taken from my mother-in-law’s house. Today’s post is a waxing gibbous moon, although seen through tree branches but this time taken from out front yard. I had been out taking pictures of Eranthis hyemalis (winter aconite) and then noticed the moon. So, you’ll have to wait for another flower picture in favor of this one. The moon is nearing full and was quite lovely against the darkening blue of the sky and set off by the branches of a red oak tree (Quercus rubra) in our front yard.
The new moon was four days ago, on January 16. The synodic period (the amount of time between full moons, or new moons or whatever) is 29 days, 12 hours, and about 44 minutes. The sidereal orbit (the orbit around the earth without regard to the relative position of the sun) is a little more than two days shorter than that, of course. In the time it takes the moon to circle the earth, the earth has moved almost one twelfth of the way around the sun and it takes the moon that extra two-plus days to get back into the same position relative to the sun and the earth. During the first quarter of the cycle, the moon is a growing (waxing) crescent (less than half visible). The second quarter it is waxing gibbous (more than half visible).
On the way home from work I stopped at the grocery store to buy a few things. When I came out, the sun was setting and the light on the clouds was quite beautiful. I didn’t have time to get anywhere more open so I took a handful of pictures from the shopping center parking lot. With my 100mm lens I was able to avoid the buildings and parking lot lights and concentrate on the colors. This one turned out pretty well, I think. | 2019-04-21T05:03:30 | http://www.henryhartley.com/?tag=evening |

Following the success of Rob and Meenu Bains’ first store, which has seen sales rise by 25% since joining One Stop in 2014 and remains the closest franchise to One Stop’s hub of operations in Brownhills, they have opened their second store in Parkhill Road, Burntwood.
Their second store ‘One Stop Parkhill Local’ is located at Ryecroft Shopping Centre in Chase Terrace and officially opened its doors on the 6th April.

In addition, the store has created 4 new jobs in the local area.
The store boasted a grand opening weekend to celebrate, with local residents Mr Peter Tams (85 years old) and his wife cutting the ribbon. A launch featured a range of activities which included, face painting, complimentary snacks and drinks, Easter raffle, Easter egg treats, colouring competitions, and much more with all the money raised on the day going to the Stephen Sutton Trust in aid of Teenage Cancer. | 2019-04-19T20:24:54 | http://openaonestop.co.uk/press/press-release-bains-open-second-franchise.php |
ST. LOUIS -- Cardinals catcher Yadier Molina became the 34th catcher in Major League Baseball history to collect at least 1,500 career hits with a fourth-inning single in Saturday's 3-0 Cardinals win over the Brewers.
Molina singled to center off Brewers pitcher Jimmy Nelson to reach the milestone and received a standing ovation. He tipped his helmet to the crowd as he stood on first base after his only hit of the day.
While he'll remember the moment, it doesn't carry too much weight in his mind.
"Right now, it doesn't mean anything for me," Molina said. "All it means is that we got the win today and [Adam Wainwright] pitched a great game and we played good defense today. Obviously 1,500 is a lot of hits, but I've got to keep going."
"I think where he is in his career and the things he's been able to achieve, every one means a lot to him, because he's a student of the game and he understands that that's not very common," Cardinals manager Mike Matheny said. "There are not a lot of catchers who can say they've been able to do that."
The Cardinals' fourth-round pick in the 2000 Draft has has logged 1,540 career games. He has won eight consecutive National League Gold Glove Awards and has four NL Platinum Glove Awards to his credit.
"He's done so many great things," Wainwright said. "Fifteen-hundred hits would be [time to] throw a parade for a lot of people."
The seven-time NL All-Star collected two hits Friday night and one Wednesday as he inched closer to the 1,500-hit threshold. He began the season with 1,430 hits.
"He's been one of the greatest Cardinals ever, and he's been a treat for me to throw to every five days," Wainwright said. "We were excited for Yadier. That's a good mark for any big league player, 1,500 hits, and now we're trying to get him to 2,000." | 2019-04-21T06:18:22 | https://www.mlb.com/news/yadier-molina-singles-for-1500th-career-hit/c-187521892 |

Yeah, it may be a STIR-RETCH! But once again I'm Swimming in Synchronicity, or is it synchromesh? Since after all there's some racing cars from Weissach going round 'N round le Circuit de la Sarthe right now! Although Thar 919 Hybrid's 'lil 4-banger's gotz' a whole lotta more Giddy Up!
At the height of his "Cool" factor; Hey! Uhm, insert Fonz' pronunciation here? As obviously Dad's still cool, especially when 'Ol Huey Lewis croons 'bout Square's being Hip; Hya!
Thus the car in Questione was a brand spankin' new 1977 and-a-half, or as European designation of 1977.5 silver with black interior Porsche 924. Which reportedly was not only Porsche's first water cooled car produced, but also has the distinction of being the first front engine rear wheel drive vehicle and first ever automatic transmission; for which Pops' opted for, which was a 3-speed "Slushbox."
As it's funny what our memories retain, eh? Since I still vividly recall the silver paint and black vinyl front bucket seats, black door panels, etc. today, four decades later; whilst having completely forgotten it was billed as a 2+2 Coupe, and even worse yet totally don't remember that as a Wee' lad, I sat in the back seat; Huh? Which I'm told were miniscule at best.
When I asked Pops' what he recalled 'bout the car, he was pretty non-committal, other then immediately recalling the time the mechanic forgot to replace the valve cover cap after an oil change, which promptly caused hot oil to spew everywheres' in a smelly, hot, Smoke-On emitting cloud from underneath the bonnet!
Whilst my future Mum was less ecstatic 'bout the Porsche, noting the following issues with his 924. First telling me it was continuously Tinny sounding, along with always smelling of burning Oil.
Worse yet was the ridiculous $500 repair to fix the windshield wipers, which required removing the radio! For which the factory Dealership then broke the radio! And refused to repair it!
Presumably the burning Oil smell was attributed to that Cluck-up by the mechanic? While I'm no engineer, et al, but I've read that Porsche utilized two harmonic balancers to smooth out the normal vibrations four cylinder lumps' inherently produce, so might the tinny sound been a byproduct of this?
Speaking 'O Sounds, what I recall most, was never having any lengthy conversations in the car, since typically the sunroof was off, presumably during our brief, sunny summers!
And why do I still remember the black cloth bag in the hatchback's trunk for putting the removable sunroof panel in? Or the black plastic wind deflector on the leading edge of the roof's hole?
Along with us Rockin' out to one of two well played 8-Track tapes; EUREKA! Y'all recall 8-Track tape cassettes, right? As we seemed to gravitate between Joe Walsh or the Little River Band, to which my Hipster Dad introduced me to.
As the song Life's been Good is Joe Walsh's highest charting single, reaching No. 12 on the Billboard, on his album But Seriously, Folks, released in May, 1978.
While I tend to recall that it was the Little River Band from Down Under that got more "Play-time" in the radio's 8-Track, as I still remember the novelty of the radio's face-plate swiveling inwards for the 8-Track's insertion nestled in front of the automatic's T-handle selector in the center console.
Think we wore out the State side's version of Diamantina Cocktail, which I'll let Y'all look-up what that is Mates!
As I won't even try explaining the dichotomy of LRB's album releases Stateside, other than my introduction to the band was Thar first Top-40 single It's a Long Way There, which chimes in at 8:38, whilst Joe Walsh's Life's been Good is 7:57.
Hmm? It's interesting to Mwah how songs could routinely span 6-8mins duration during the 1970's - when we had longer attention spans, Pre-computer/Cell Phone era, as imagine listening to an 8min song today?
Meanwhile, it's always bemusing to Mwah what Pops' holds back, since while querying him on the 'Ol 924, he volunteered without prodding that it was the replacement to the 914; Uh huh. And when I told him I'd always liked the 944, he said yes, that's a more powerful version but it was also costlier; Correctomundo!
As I won't debate the merits or panning of it by Porschephiles', or try explaining its history, other than over 150,000 were produced during its twelve year production run as a vital income stream for Porsche.
While this chassis was the basis for the 924 Carrera GT racecar the late Peter Gregg was supposed to race in 1980 at Le Mans, which I've previously chronicled here in Nofendersville.
As thanxs for the memories Pops', and Happy Father's Day, Y'all! | 2019-04-22T00:07:22 | http://www.nofenders.net/2017/06/retro-my-fathers-porsche.html |

Edward Alexander (Aleister) Crowley was born October 12, 1875 in Leamington Spa, England. His parents were members of the Plymouth Brethren, a fundamentalist Christian sect.
Aleister grew up with a thorough biblical education and an equally thorough disdain of Christianity.
leaving just before completing his degree.
The Golden Dawn was an occult society led by S.L. MacGregor Mathers which taught magick, kabalah, alchemy, tarot, astrology, and other hermetic subjects.
It had many notable members (including A. E. Waite, Dion Fortune, and W. B. Yeats), and its influence on the development of modern western occultism was profound.
Crowley was initiated into the Golden Dawn in 1898.
He proceeded to climb up rapidly through the grades.
But in 1900 the order was shattered by schism, and Crowley left England to travel extensively throughout the East.
supplementing his knowledge of western-style ritual magick with the methods of Oriental mysticism.
In 1903, Crowley married Rose Kelly, and they went to Egypt on their honeymoon.
After returning to Cairo in early 1904, Rose (who until this point had shown no interest or familiarity with the occult) began entering trance states and insisting to her husband that the god Horus was trying to contact him.
As a test, Crowley took Rose to the Boulak Museum and asked her to point out Horus to him.
She passed several well-known images of the god and led Aleister straight to a painted wooden funerary stele from the 26th dynasty, depicting Horus receiving a sacrifice from the deceased, a priest named Ankh-f-n-khonsu.
Crowley was especially impressed by the fact that this piece was numbered 666 by the museum, a number with which he had identified since childhood.
He began to listen to Rose, and at her direction, on three successive days beginning April 8, 1904, he entered his chamber at noon and wrote down what he heard dictated from a shadowy presence behind him.
The result was the three chapters of verse known as Liber AL vel Legis, or The Book of the Law.
This book heralded the dawning of the new aeon of Horus, which would be governed by the Law of Thelema.
As the prophet of this new aeon, Crowley spent the rest of his life working to develop and establish Thelemic philosophy.
In 1906 Crowley rejoined George Cecil Jones in England, where they set about the task of creating a magical order to continue where the Golden Dawn had left off.
They called this order the A.'. A.'.
(Astrum Argentium or Silver Star), and it became the primary vehicle for the transmission of Crowley's mystical and magical training system based on the principles of Thelema.
This group of high-ranking Freemasons claimed to have discovered the supreme secret of practical magick, which was taught in its highest degrees.
Apparently Crowley agreed, becoming a member of O.T.O. and eventually taking over as head of the order when Reuss suffered a stroke in 1921.
Crowley reformulated the rites of the O.T.O. to conform them to the Law of Thelema, and vested the organization with its main purpose of establishing Thelema in the world.
The order also became independent of Freemasonry and opened its membership to women and men who were not masons.
However, his legacy lives on in the Law of Thelema. | 2019-04-20T20:09:55 | http://lhpriestess.tripod.com/practitionersofthelhpdarktexts/id10.html |
I have a question about Custom Fields that would be great to get help with please.
I have a custom field Radio button that offers 1 choice of a number of different values.
I have one called 'Intern' that I now need to call 'Associate'.
My question is. If I simply change the value in the Radio button option through custom fields, will that make everyone that has Intern assigned to them from before, get changed to Associate or is it just for those people from after I make the change?
I am trying to work out if I will get a mix of people, some who are Intern and others who are Associate. I'm not sure if the radio button stores as a number per value or the actual text.
My boss has instructed me that I need to change this value though very soon.
Am I right in thinking I can update those values to 'Associate' with an update query and then if I change the value in the radio button options list by over typing Intern with Associate, new people or renewals and updates will then select 'Associate' and either overwrite their old value or get the new one added?
Will those updated to Associate show in the Radio button if the spelling matches the Custom Fields config?
I realise I will need to do both the update query and then the text change at the same time or else people could still get added at Intern if I don't change it.

Korean rapper Psy will be performing his latest single "Gentleman" at the finale of "American Idol," which will be aired in the US on May 16.
The finale of the FOX show will decide who will be crowned as the new "American Idol" between finalists Candice Glover and Knee Harrison.
Besides Psy, other performers at the finale are former "American Idol" judge Jennifer Lopez and current judges Keith Urban and Mariah Carey, according to the "Idol" blog mjsbigblog.
"American Idol alum, Adam Lambert, will perform with Angie Miller. The Band Perry will sing with 5th placer, Janelle Arthur and Frankie Valli will perform with the Top 10 boys," it said.
Psy is in the US to promote "Gentleman." The song is at No. 36 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, down from No. 26 the previous week.
Last week, Psy talked about his success at Harvard University while Green Day's Billie Joe Armstrong dissed Psy, calling him "the herpes of music."
At Harvard, Psy talked about the success of "Gangnam Style" and "Gentleman."
“This is really weird, isn’t it?” After 14 years, who knew I’d come back to [give] a speech at Harvard? Isn’t life beautiful?” said Psy, according to the Harvard Magazine.
Psy told the audience that when he was attending Boston University School of Management in the 1990s, his nickname was "WWF," or "withdraw, withdraw, fail."
The magazine said Psy told the audience that when he wrote "Gangnam Style," his goal was to make people laugh.
“I tried my best to be as ridiculous as possible,” Psy said.
After "Gangnam Style," Psy released "Gentleman." The music video for the song has so far garnered 325 million views on YouTube since it was released last April 13.
“There should be a specific reason why people chose me. They didn’t choose me because I’m handsome, they didn’t choose me because I’m muscular… the reason why they chose me is because I have fun with the music, with the dance, with the video,” he said.
On the other hand, Armstrong uploaded a picture of Psy on Instagram and described him as the "herpes of music."
"This dude is the herpes of music. Once you think it's gone, it comes back. #herpes #flareup #pleasegoaway," he wrote. The post now has 2,889 comments.
Instead of getting pissed, Psy thanked Armstrong for the comment.
"I kind of like it, it's cool. I should say something to him. He's saying I'm like herpes, keep coming back. I think it's really cool and I appreciate that. Thank you," Psy told FUSE TV. | 2019-04-25T15:54:48 | https://www.koreaobserver.net/2013/05/psy-set-to-perform-at-american-idol.html |
Just like anything else in the dating world, hiring a matchmaker also comes with myths, and because of that, our New Jersey matchmakers will debunk the many myths and misinterpretations people have about hiring a professional matchmaker. We’ll also review the many real benefits that come along with having a personal matchmaker by your side when it comes to dating and finding love.
Wrong, Wrong, Wrong. Our clients are everyday people just like our matchmakers and yourself. If you go to any local grocery store, mall, or fitness center, the people you’ll see there are probably some of our clients. Each single man and woman is unique and comes with their own set of circumstances and each person has their own financial circumstance as well.
The truth is, our professional New Jersey matchmakers believe everyone deserves to find love and that’s why we specialize in creating compatible couples—successful and happy relationships. Our matchmaking team designs a program fit for each specific person and what they’re looking to achieve in their romantic life. Our matchmakers create custom packages to fit each client’s emotional and financial circumstance. These customized dating programs are designed to help each person find their dream partner without tapping into their everyday money. The truth is, hiring a professional matchmaking service is less expensive than a divorce would cost.
The oldest stigma about hiring a professional matchmaking service, “It’s only for losers,” is long gone. In fact, in New Jersey, hiring a professional matchmaking service is the new thing to do. Nowadays, (and we’re sure you’ve seen them) there are countless shows on matchmaking services (not that those shows represent what we do here at South Jersey Matchmakers), but we’re just saying, they’re so popular that even Hollywood wants in on the action.
As a professional matchmaking service, we screen out people who are not emotionally ready for a new and healthy relationship. No one wants to meet someone who has a lot of baggage from the past. “Everyone has some kind of baggage, but like with anything in life, it’s easier when someone lends you a hand.” The last thing our professional matchmakers want to do is set someone up for failure. If someone has too many issues from the past (ones that are preventing them from being successful in the dating world), our New Jersey matchmakers choose to help them work on those issues first—enter our invaluable professional dating coaching and guidance.
Of course you can hop on the internet and try browsing the personals or even jump onto one of those free internet dating sites, but they’re not really free. Think about all that time you have to invest into browsing those ‘free’ dating sites. First, you will have to create an over-the-top profile (something going to make you stick out from the thousands of other members), then you will have to weed through thousands of profiles looking for your perfect match. Once you find a few potentials, then you’ll have to spend time messaging each other back and forth and deciphering if they really are who they say they are—all time consuming and frustrating.
But here at South Jersey Matchmakers, we know how valuable your time is and we see wasted time as wasted money! And what about all that money you waste going out on disappointing dates who aren’t what you expected… The point is, just like anything in life, YOU WILL GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR!
This could be the truth for many matchmaking services, but this is only something some services do. Our New Jersey matchmakers welcome both men and women because everyone deserves to find love and happiness—and we welcome men and women who are willing to pay a fee, because to our team, that shows they are serious about finding love and they’re sincere about making it work. If someone wants to invest themselves financially with our services, we will welcome them with open arms, as long as they can past our extensive criminal and background checks to ensure they’re fit to date our existing clients.
The number one priority of our New Jersey matchmakers is to ensure each of our client’s privacy and confidentiality. With our services, clients can expect the same level of confidentiality they would receive from a doctor-patient or lawyer-client relationship. Our matchmakers are here to protect each member—no one will know they’re using our services unless they tell them themselves. And our matchmakers will never sell our client information to another company—this is something online dating sites are very well-known for doing—beware.
So the big old question is, who out there hires a professional matchmaker?
Again, everyday people (people just like you), hire a professional matchmaker. People who are busy with their careers, social lives, and families, hire a matchmaker—people who don’t want to spend thousands of hours browsing through online profiles hire a professional matchmaker. People who are sick and tired of being set up by family and friends hire a matchmaker. People that are frustrated in the dating world hire a matchmaker. People who don’t want to waste their precious time meeting the wrong people hire a matchmaker. But most importantly, people who take their dating life seriously and are sincere about finding someone they can spend the rest of their life with hire a matchmaker.
When you need to get your taxes filed, you hire an accountant. When you’re ill, you seek out the help of your doctor. When you’re facing a legal problem, you hire a lawyer. When you are sick and tired of being lonely, tired of wasting your precious time and money dating the wrong people—and when you are taking your dating life seriously and in a proactive way, you hire a professional matchmaking service. Why? Because that’s what intelligent people do. So before you decide not to hire a professional matchmaker on your quest to find love, read the facts and you’ll see that hiring a personal matchmaker could be the best decision you ever make in your life.
If you’re tired of trying to tackle the difficult dating world on your own, contact our New Jersey matchmakers today. Let our team of dating experts take the challenges out of dating—allowing you to continue on with your everyday life—allowing you to sit back and enjoy dating once again! | 2019-04-23T11:59:31 | http://southjerseymatchmakersreviews.com/matchmaking-myths/ |

High fidelity, high quality, great value - URC home control with CasaTunes music streams and CasaTunes music systems.
URC dealers finally have a good music solution for homes controlled by URC. Now, as a dealer, you can easily supply your customers with a reasonably priced music server.
Setup is simple and fast, using URC's Accelerator® software. Download the appropriate CasaTunes Streamer Module Package or the CasaTunes System Module Package (see below). The Module Packages include helpful documentation. You can always check for the latest versions on our downloads page.
With the Streamer Module, CasaTunes can supply up to 4 totally independent streams of audiophile quality music.
With the System Module you can integrate a complete CasaTunes music system into the URC environment. The System Module even comes with a tool to automatically pull in CasaTunes setup configuration, minimizing the amount of work needed for integration.
Which URC module should I use?
The CasaTunes music server can be configured as a music streamer, or as part of a complete music system.
Music Streamers - If you have previously used audio streamers in your projects, this is the mode you are probably familiar with. In this mode, each audio stream is an independent music player that can play music from internet music services, like Spotify, from local music stored on a PC, or from NAS device on the local network, or a stream from an iOS device via AirPlay.
A music streamer has no switching, volume or power control, just pure, independent streams coming out of the music server at pre-amp levels.

You can also use the System Module with our legacy CasaTunes CT Systems. These systems behave like regular CasaTunes music systems, but uses software to implement switching. With CasaTunes CT Systems, switching between internal streams and external outputs is built right into the music server software.
For music systems use the CasaTunes System Module for URC.
Every stream is a complete Music Player, offering endless music, and a powerful, but simple interface.
Use the lower cost CasaTunes CT-1 or CT-2 to provide one or two streams, or the more robust CasaTunes CT-3 and CT-4, for three or four independent streams, respectively.
Easily change what you are listening to by browsing through your music collection, searching for a specific artist or song, or clicking on a different song in your currently playing list.
Using our CasaTunes Air technology you can stream music from any music App on iOS devices to any stream.
Regardless of which CasaTunes Hardware Matrix Music System or CasaTunes Software Matrix Music System you are using, the System Module makes it easy to integrate with URC.

The world of kayak bass fishing got rocked to its core recently when the winner of a Kayak Bass Series tournament on Tennessee’s Dale Hollow Lake got caught using an altered measuring device.
The angler, later identified as Andrew Shepherd of Prestonsburg, Ky., was disqualified after tournament officials noticed something funny about the photos Shepherd turned in to have his tournament-winning catch verified. In kayak bass fishing, contestants are required to measure and photograph each fish on a “bump board,” a broad ruler that cradles the fish. A vertical stop at one end of the bump board ensures accurate measurement by making sure each fish’s nose gets placed at the same spot.
Sharp-eyed judges figured out that Shepherd’s bump board had had 4 inches removed from it, which had the effect of making the bass he caught appear 4 inches longer. Shepherd allegedly disguised the subterfuge by holding his hand over the fish in way that concealed the alteration.
Not surprisingly, Shepherd’s disqualification triggered a social media firestorm from indignant anglers.
One unanticipated side effect of the incident could be that anglers will lose confidence in so-called “golden rule” tournaments, which rely on anglers’ honesty in measuring and reporting their catches. I suppose that when hundreds or even thousands of dollars in prize money are at stake, verifying results takes on even more importance.
The Louisiana House voted 95-5 Wednesday to add the fluorescent color “blaze pink” as an alternative to the traditional “hunter orange” that hunters are required to wear under state law.
Bogalusa Rep. Malinda White, a hunter who sponsored the bill, says she thinks the addition would encourage more women to hunt. The Democratic lawmaker, who wore a pink shirt and glasses to debate the measure, says Wisconsin has passed a similar provision.
Rep. Neil Abramson, a New Orleans Democrat, worried about the safety of wearing pink, questioning if it would be visible enough.
The bill, supported by the Department of Wildlife and Fisheries, heads next to the Senate for debate.
The bottom line, to me, is whether the color prevents its wearer from being mistaken for game. Studies have shown that fluorescent pink shows up slightly better than orange, especially under low-light conditions. Fluorescent chartreuse shows up even better; that’s why road and construction crews wear it.
If lawmakers would detach themselves from gender politics and vote solely on the merits of the colors’ visibility, hunters might have their choice of fluorescent orange, pink or chartreuse clothing. My only question is what they’re waiting for. | 2019-04-25T20:33:40 | http://blogs.wvgazettemail.com/johnmccoy/page/2/ |
TEXAS KEEPER CIDER was started in 2013 by three long-time friends all born and raised in Austin, Texas.
Nick’s interest in orchards and cider started as a young kid being taken out to little hole-in-the-wall cideries by his father in Somerset, England. Nick worked in orchards and vineyards in New Zealand before studying winemaking at Lincoln University near Christchurch. He’s worked in small wineries in New Zealand, Northern California, and Oregon, but the goal has always been to get back to Austin. Nick is a winemaker turned cidermaker, and stoked about the complexity and approachability of craft cider.
Brandon’s been an avid homebrewer for over a decade, but his brewing practices have evolved to eschew recipes in favor of following his taste buds. He has a passion for cooking and brewing and the pairing of the two, and has a knack for whipping up cleverly tasty meals from whatever’s in his fridge. You’ll always see him with a big grin on his face.

I wish everyone would stop using NSAID drugs. They have killed and maimed enough people. But I know many people still take them because of the terrible pain of osteoarthritis.
You don't have to take these dangerous drugs to get relief. There are supplements that help. One of my favorites is Advanced Joint Support. And now there's something else you can add to your joint formula that will make it even more effective.
A small study on 133 patients in Denmark evaluated simple vitamin C. It was a double-blind, cross-over study. That means that neither doctor nor patient knew whether the patients were taking vitamin C or the placebo. The researchers also switched the subjects from C to the placebo or vice versa during the trial. And they didn't know that either.
The researchers gave the participants one gram of vitamin C (as calcium ascorbate) each day.
The patients who took the vitamin C reported significant improvement - unlike those on the placebo. The study kept a statistical score of pain. The researchers reported that vitamin C reduced pain about half as much as is commonly reported for NSAIDs. While that isn't as good as the drug, remember, the researchers found no side effects. And coupled with a strong joint formula could significantly boost effectiveness to levels well above NSAIDs.
Vitamin C is essential for collagen and cartilage formation. It's very inexpensive, and one gram daily is easy for almost everyone to tolerate without loose bowels. If you have osteoarthritis, please consider adding vitamin C to your daily regimen at a dose of one gram (1,000 mg) per day.

We have used one ingredients delivery service or another for around a year, now, and I love it for so many reasons.
First, it helps my mental health by removing the decision-making requirement of meal planning. When you live with chronic pain, your brain is only up to so many decisions in a day and I'd rather use mine for writing my novels!
Third, but not least, so,so much less waste! Even on my best day I could not plan our meals and shopping down to the last needed ingredient, like they do. In Japan we came close because where we lived, the supermarkets catered for single salarymen, so everything was in single lots and we simply bought two of everything. Here in Australia, though, except for the week of the farmers market, we have to buy our food at supermarkets, which still cater to that nuclear family of four, making variety either a complex puzzle, impossible, or wasteful!

I don’t like to start with a blank canvas so I use a digital image which I create on a laptop computer using 6 software programs, an Intous electronic table and stylus and a 44-inch Epson archival pigment inkjet printer. I print the image on special matte canvas at plus 50% inkflow, which gives me a very color intensive image with which to begin.
While the print is still wet, I draw on it by dripping bright acrylic paints with a sharp stick on the image, finding small images within the larger areas. I enhance these special areas with Posca paint pens, solid oil paint bars and stencils.
I seal the piece with 6 coats of high gloss acrylic varnish.
My process is from the inside out- meaning I am not trying to re-create something I am seeing (like a landscape), but something from my imagination which occurs as the work comes together. | 2019-04-25T16:26:46 | https://www.mainefarmlandtrust.org/artists/Petrea_Noyes/39143/ |
Hello. I'm wondering if - yet again - I'm doing something wrong. I've made some adjustments and saved as a LUT (Screen shot 'Adjustments applied'). When I copy and paste the adjustments to another photo, they are fine. When I load as a LUT, the resulting adjustment is nothing like what I thought I'd saved. The second screenshot 'LUT applied' shows the same image, with the original and saved adjustment layers disabledm, and the LUT applied.
Hello, Chris_K and thanks for your reassurance! Just for the sake of trying, I exported a set of adjustments as a .3dl file and it worked perfectly. I tried with a few others and they are all exactly as intended. I've attached one in case it's any use... Thanks again. | 2019-04-20T04:20:42 | https://forum.affinity.serif.com/index.php?/topic/46729-affinity-photo-beta-16082-look-up-tables/&do=findComment&comment=234422 |
Pharrell Williams married his girlfriend of 10 years, Helen Lasichanh, in Miami this weekend.
The producer/performer has enjoyed huge success in 2013 after appearing on both Daft Punk’s ‘Get Lucky’ and ‘Blurred Lines’ by Robin Thicke. He wed Lasichanh in a Miami ceremony on Saturday (October 12) according to the New York Daily News.
Paparazzi picture show the couple having their picture taken on a yacht by photographer Terry Richardson. The couple, who have a four-year-old son, Rocket Man Williams, have dated for many years. Williams was linked to Jade Jagger, daughter of The Rolling Stones frontman Mick Jagger, prior to meeting Lasichanh.
Earlier this year, Black Eyed Peas member and The Voice coach will.i.am was claimed to be counter-suing Pharrell Williams over his ‘i am OTHER’ YouTube channel. The suit comes after Pharrell filed a lawsuit against will.i.am earlier this year, asking the judge to protect his right to use the ‘I Am’ moniker. | 2019-04-21T19:05:25 | https://www.nme.com/news/music/pharrell-williams-66-1242681 |
In the second semester of 2013, five ARMI staff, one SNV advisor and two testers from DST and RENMI attended a stove testing training in Cambodia, organized by GERES. All ICS programme attendees agreed that the training was beneficial in improving their stove testing skills and understanding of the theory and practice of a range of aspects of stove testing.
In December 2013, a two-day workshop was organised at a producer’s production centre in Vientiane capital. Thirty-one people participated, including 16 producers (two of whom were women) and government partners. The workshop involved discussion and exchange of knowledge among stove producers, as well as the introduction of ICS production techniques and the Quality Control (QC) and Quality Assurance (QA) Protocols. The producers also discussed production plans for 2014 and opportunities to improve tools and their production areas, in order to be able produce large numbers of high-quality ICS. Attendees also agreed in principle to establish an association of stove producers at an appropriate time.
At the end of 2013, the programme had engaged 13 more producers across the three locations and 11 producers had produced a total of 6,760 ICS. Currently a total of 15 producers have been identified and five more producers are expected to join the programme in 2014. | 2019-04-22T16:27:29 | http://icslao.info/index.php?option=com_k2&view=item&id=48:result-1-producers-in-2013&Itemid=394 |

Some people are still skeptical about the importance of rehabilitation facilities hence they are not taking their family members to such centers for help. With increasing facilities dealing with addiction from different substances the choice for the right facility has become quite a challenge for many people. Drug rehab and substance abuse facilities do not offer the same kind of services which makes it necessary to spent some time in identifying the right facility to take your loved ones to receive treatment.

I'm continuing with my business book reading. One interesting concept I've just learned is the idea of "capabilities" (a pretty weird name, but the standard name, for this concept). There are three kinds of business capabilities: resources ("what"), processes ("how"), and priorities ("why").
Ignoring the awkwardness of calling people "resources," in this framework, resources include people, knowledge, and physical assets (like data centers for example). Resources are what finance types tend to do their accounting based on, including when they say "people are our most valuable resource," which is an entirely true statement, especially in a software company.
But most people don't account for processes and priorities when doing evaluations. Non-resource capabilities are very valuable. If you took the same people, removed them from their company, put them in a startup, and let them do whatever they want, that startup would not make nearly as much money as at their original company, at least not for a long time. The reason is that a big company has many processes (how do I get code deployed at scale? how do I decide how much to pay people? how does someone become a manager?) that, as much as we complain, mostly work okay. We also have a system for prioritizing projects and tasks and spending that, as much as we complain, also works okay (in that it prioritizes selling ads which then make a lot of money).
There are many companies without nearly the level of resources of a big company, that do quite well. The trick is that they make more out of those resources, using better processes and better prioritization. Because a big company has huge resources, they can afford to be worse at the other things.
And that's why it's possible for startups to have so little money and still outdo the big companies at some kinds of projects. Processes and priorities are cheap compared to resources, but you can't just buy them. They take a long time to form, and to change when you realize you have the wrong ones. | 2019-04-22T15:55:33 | https://apenwarr.ca/log/20170727 |
