Café society
SmartCompany /
The sluggish cafes and restaurant sector is about to turn a corner – the growth prospects are now good. By Jason Baker of IBISWorld.
Over the past five years, growth in the cafes and restaurants industry has been slow, rising only 2.1% in the past five years, reaching $7633 million in 2006-07. But the outlook is more positive, with 3.2% growth in turnover expected annually until 2011-12.
Cafes and restaurants are sensitive to trends in leisure and recreation time and disposable income. High fuel prices and recent increases in interest rates and taxes have constrained growth in disposable income in recent years, which has led to reduced spending for luxuries like eating out.
For example, in 2002 Australians were eating out 83 times a year compared with 94 times a year in 2000. In 2002, the main reasons people gave as a reason for eating out were, “special occasion”, “break in routine”, and “meeting friends”. Two years before this “convenience” was the main reason for eating out.
But the growth of wealthy time-poor professionals will benefit the industry longer term. Young professionals eat a high proportion of their meals outside of the home because of long working hours, social lunches and dinners with friends.
In the next five years, as people tend to eat more meals away from the home, sales for cafes and restaurants will increase. The industry is also expected to benefit from increased levels of international tourism and innovation within the cafe and restaurant industry. Domestic tourism and international visitor arrivals will increase due to stronger global economic growth.
Competition is high and mainly based on price, due to the overwhelming number of small operators, which results in lower profit margins. The profit margin will remain low for this industry, but will fluctuate depending on establishment size, and in line with the economic cycle and the rate of disposable household income growth.
Franchising is dominating cafes and restaurants. Competition from foreign-owned franchised operators, like McCafes and Starbucks, and local franchises, like Gloria Jean’s, is also increasing. Revenue from franchising in Australia is expected to grow more than five times faster than revenue growth in the café and restaurants industry. (For more on franchising, see the Growth Resources section.)
While general unemployment is anticipated to remain low, the industry will continue to have problems in attracting and holding staff, particularly given the high casual employment component and the high demand for chefs.
While the outlook for this industry may not be as promising as some other industries, there is some growth ahead, and employees will still be able to put food on the table.

Homemade Soya Bean Milk
I've always thought making homemade soya bean milk is a difficult process and that you must own a soya bean milk maker machine to do the job. How wrong was I! If you have a food processor and a muslin/cheese cloth, you're good to go. It's really not difficult at all, just a little tedious and messy. That's what's great about blogging. I learn new things all the time. Though making homemade soya bean milk is nothing new to most Asian homecooks to shout about, it is a big deal for a noob cook like me. I can now proudly say I make my own soya bean milk from scratch! Haha!
To make soya bean milk, first you need to soak the beans overnight. The beans will swell to double its size. Rinse and drain and then place in the food processor. Add water just enough to cover the beans and blend. Squeeze and strain out using a muslin/cheese cloth. Put the strained pulp back in the food processor, add water to cover and blend again. This is to extract as much milk from the beans as possible. Strain soya bean milk into a pot, slowly bring to the boil while stirring regularly. Skim off any foam. Let it gently simmer for 10 minutes. That's it! Homemade soya bean milk. Thick and creamy and nothing like what you get from outside. You can add as much or as little sugar to your liking and even flavour the milk with pandan leaves. If you prefer a less thick soya milk, just thin it down with more water. Drink it warm or cold as you like. How great is that huh?
One thing to note. While cooling the soya bean milk, it will form a layer of 'beancurd sheet' on top. Do not try to stir it in the milk like what I did. You'll end up with clumpy milk. Just gently scrape it away. Discard the beancurd sheet or you can dry it and save for another use, but I've not tried that. You also need to strain the soya bean milk to get rid of any bits of beancurd sheet that might be left. For the smoothest texture, strain and strain again if you must. Store the soya bean milk in the refrigerator if you can't finish within the day its made. I've kept it for a couple of days and it was still okay.
Go here for the recipe and detailed step by step method. I used 250g soya beans and that yielded somewhere between 1 1/2 to 2 litres of soya bean milk.
1. Love soya milk ;) Yup , it takes a lot of work but the result's very satisfying :D
2. i made mine using blender..that's really a great thing to make our own soya bean..the taste is so natural..just unbeatable!

4. Hey people, got a good suggestion.
Want recipes and a 20-minute-sit-back-and-relax method to prepare soya milk?
Teaches you how to use a soya milk maker, and even features the different models of soya milk maker you can use for homemade soya milk

Today life without a cell phone, a laptop, or an Internet connection seems unthinkable. Tech has infiltrated daily life in so many ways that it's hard to remember entire generations found ways to reach others, stay up-to-date, and do their jobs without the technology innovations we take for granted.
PBS Nightly Business News took a close look at tech innovations and innovations from other fields. To celebrate its 30th year on television, the news show partnered with Knowledge@Wharton to select the top 30 innovations in the past 30 years -- innovations that may seem standard now, but whose creation changed the way business is conducted, directly affected quality of life, broke new ground, and more.
Here are seven technology innovations from that list.
RFID and applications (#23)
Long before Nike+ used radio frequency device to tell you how fast you're running, the technology was being used in World War II radar systems. In the '80s it was put to use in automated toll payment systems, enabling speedsters everywhere the ability to fly through the tolls.
GUI (#21)
The first graphical user interface was invented by Douglas Englebart in 1968, and in the late '70s and early '80s GUI design advanced, largely thanks to Apple. Because of these pioneers, we can take it for granted that we interact with our computer using a mouse and have easy-to-understand icons and other graphical controls instead of having to remember a bunch of computer commands.
Social networking via internet (#20)
Internet-based social networks really are very new. SixDegrees.com (1997) is the earliest social network site, according to PBS, but it wasn't until MySpace, which launched in 2003, that social networks began to appeal to the masses. Now, of course, there's Facebook, which gives you endless opportunities to have worlds collide, and Twitter, which empowers you to become your own paparazzi by dropping life tidbits, wisdom, and your comings and goings to your anxious followers.
Online shopping/ecommerce/auctions (#15)
Where would we be without Amazon, eBay and other online stores? Stuck in traffic on the way to the mall, that's where. Thanks to the Internet being opened up to commercial use, the ability for companies to capitalize on electronic transactions took off. As did our hunger for a more peaceful shopping experience.
Mobile phones (#3)
Take a look at your tiny little cell phone and be thankful. The first mobile phones, which Motorola unleashed on the market in 1983, were confined to the car (until a few years later when they became more mobile) and were the size of a briefcase.
PC/ laptop computers (#2)
1981 was a big year for computers: IBM launched the 5150 model (which it called a "personal computer") and the Osborne 1 became the first portable computer. Weighing in at 24 pounds, it challenges our current notion of laptop.
Internet/broadband/WWW (#1)
Coming in at #1 is the Internet. Our slavery to Google, our addiction to Twitter, our ability to keep up-to-date on any given news topic, our ability to send and receive far too many e-mails...The Internet enabled so many other phenomenon that it's startling to realize the Internet as we know it only arrived in the '90s. But it didn't take long to change our lives forever.

Moonlight Tower Detroit 4 It was a bright idea in its day.
A dazzling source of light perched on structures 165 feet tall. They were called moonlight towers and in the late 1800s the light illuminated the entire city of Detroit.
"Thousands of people would come in just to see them. Drive in on a wagon to go to town just to see the lights," said Father John Staudenmier, an administrator at the University of Detroit-Mercy and the editor emeritus of technology and culture.
One would think this antiquated approach to urban lighting would be long gone. However, the actual towers which once reached high above Detroit are now helping light another city.
That city will be named later in this article. First, let's get a science lesson at Lawrence Technological University.
Detroit's moonlight towers used carbon arc lighting
Physics professor Changgong Zhou has a smaller version of the arc lighting, the way Detroit beat the darkness in the old days.
"We know when you have opposite charges they attract one another," said Zhou.
If the electric charge is strong enough ...
Changgong Zhou arc lighting experiment "It turns air into conductors, so electric current can run through the positive end to the negative end," the professor said.
Downed wires can arc and light up the sky. That's what Detroit's towers did. By putting carbon rods together electricity would jump the gap atop the moonlight towers.
"If you look at the design of the moonlight towers, they are very tall towers and they cast this bright light over a considerable distance in a city," said Staudenmier. "So bright, for example, that if we had one in this room you couldn't film and we wouldn't be in here."
In 188, a writer bragged, "The press of this country has uniformly conceded Detroit to be the best lighted city in the world." However, Edison's incandescent bulb was proving far superior to carbon arc lamps.
Moonlight Tower Detroit 2 "The downside is A) they're pretty expensive to run and B) what are you going to do with them if you can't be 400 feet away from them?" said Staudenmier.
One wonders if many folks would have preferred being in the shadows.
"It's very harsh light ... and there is no relief from it wherever it is shining," Staudenmier said.
Detroit's moonlight towers still function in Austin
Moonlight Tower Detroit in Austin 2 By the 1890s, when Detroit looked like what you would see now at the Detroit Historical Museum, moonlight towers were on the way out. However, another city wanted Detroit's towers: Austin, Texas.
Today in Austin, the moonlight towers are not only functional, they are cherished landmarks in the Texas town, 117 years after their arrival from the Motor City.
"It's unique. It's something you only find in Austin and it's part of our cultural history. I mean, it's even been in movies, 'Dazed and Confused,' for example," said Frank Strong, of Austin.
Seventeen of the original 31 moonlight towers from Detroit are now serving as giant nightlights over Austin.
Moonlight Tower Detroit in Austin "All of the 17 remaining moonlight towers are going to be repainted," said Carlos Cordova, a spokesman for Austin Energy. "We're going to inspect them for cracks, any kind of wear and tear and we're going to fix them."
Carbon arc lighting has given way to a more modern system on the moonlight towers. However, the original structures are on the national Register of Historic Places.
"When we put new bolts and new nuts on them they have to look exactly like they did in 1895," said Cordova.

But the moonlight towers are going strong down in Texas. Maybe the city should have kept a few. | dclm_baseline | {'bff_contained_ngram_count_before_dedupe': '0', 'language_id_whole_page_fasttext': "{'en': 0.966184377670288}", 'metadata': "{'Content-Length': '91268', 'Content-Type': 'application/http; msgtype=response', 'WARC-Block-Digest': 'sha1:NCINGMVDZHOGWGNA5RWP7JWVIN4GA7IZ', 'WARC-Concurrent-To': '<urn:uuid:b21b1fd7-284d-4122-9a47-3db04c17bfac>', 'WARC-Date': datetime.datetime(2014, 4, 18, 2, 3, 51), 'WARC-IP-Address': '23.62.6.66', 'WARC-Identified-Payload-Type': None, 'WARC-Payload-Digest': 'sha1:PNOV6ECWM3PLWM2SB4TVKHCDM45MHBF7', 'WARC-Record-ID': '<urn:uuid:b3c286bb-7dcd-475b-9fd9-2370da2ce289>', 'WARC-Target-URI': 'http://www.clickondetroit.com/news/Detroit-s-historical-moonlight-towers-now-light-up-Texas-town/16612450?item=0', 'WARC-Type': 'response', 'WARC-Warcinfo-ID': '<urn:uuid:2efbc610-8a8a-43b5-a9cd-e8503010b892>', 'WARC-Truncated': None}", 'previous_word_count': '633', 'url': 'http://www.clickondetroit.com/news/Detroit-s-historical-moonlight-towers-now-light-up-Texas-town/16612450?item=0', 'warcinfo': 'robots: classic\r\nhostname: ip-10-147-4-33.ec2.internal\r\nsoftware: Nutch 1.6 (CC)/CC WarcExport 1.0\r\nisPartOf: CC-MAIN-2014-15\r\noperator: CommonCrawl Admin\r\ndescription: Wide crawl of the web with URLs provided by Blekko for April 2014\r\npublisher: CommonCrawl\r\nformat: WARC File Format 1.0\r\nconformsTo: http://bibnum.bnf.fr/WARC/WARC_ISO_28500_version1_latestdraft.pdf', 'fasttext_openhermes_reddit_eli5_vs_rw_v2_bigram_200k_train_prob': '0.15752851963043213', 'original_id': 'ca6367200e5bb0a8cc763d33118d02a43cd46cd11a3fbf6cf2eec43ce2f38509'} |
E3 2001: Sled Storm Impressions, Movies & Screens
Six sleds occupied the expansive courses, which have been beefed up with shortcuts and big trick opportunities a la SSX. While some sections are linear, enclosed by cliffs on either side, at times the track would open up into areas with ski lodges on either side, and you could ride the roofs through to big jumps. The button configuration was a little tricky when it came to performing tricks, though -- L1 and R1 were the buttons for a hard leaning turn, but also seemed to trigger the trick execution mode (could never do anything but a double seatgrab). You need those leaning turns, incidentally. Sled Storm gets a bit drifty at times, and you have to approach turns with a certain amount of care to avoid crashing into the walls.
The animation is sometimes obscured by deep or flying snow, which also hides the nicely highlighted sled bodies. The particle effects so far are pretty strong, as is the sensation of plowing through varying depths of the white stuff. On clearer patches, though, it seems that while the rider animation is good, tracking the movements of the sled accurately, the sled itself could use a little tuning, especially for smoother animation on the runners. As it is, they move rather digitally, pointing either straight ahead or at a 45-degree angle but with no frames between the two.
Its EA Big cousins seem to lend Sled Storm 2 some of the personality that the original lacked. The trailer drew some laughs at Sony's press conference with a cinematic pan across the starting line -- a thuggish rider grabbed a smaller opponent by the throat. It looks like a dash of SSX's attitude has infected Sled Storm's developers. If the racing is as strong as the original, that will be the icing on the cake, and EA Sports Big can notch another hit on its belt.

Ragnar’s 5th Class
The fifth class served mainly as a review in preparation for the test that will be conducted in the sixth and final class. The dogs and their handlers went through each part of the test as a sort of dry run so everyone will know which areas their dog might need a little more practice in before week six.
Ragnar handled most of the exercises nicely but was a bit distracted during the drill that requires him to walk on a loose leash around a series of cones. He stopped to sniff a spot on the floor that attracted the snouts of his classmates the whole evening, and he wanted to keep an eye on some of his friends who went outside for a bathroom break but were visible through the windows. Aside from his wandering attention during this one exercise, Ragnar demonstrated a reassuring preparedness for his final examination. His naturally inquisitive spirit sometimes steals his focus, but our buddy has come a long way with his ability to resist distractions.
We think Ragnar’s curiosity is a great asset when he’s at work though, it helps him pay close attention to the people around him. If he spots someone who is exceptionally emotional or behaving out of the ordinary, he will diligently go to visit with them. When he sometimes works off leash, he will often do this even without being prompted. Ragnar is truly a sweet, attentive boy! | dclm_baseline | {'bff_contained_ngram_count_before_dedupe': '0', 'language_id_whole_page_fasttext': "{'en': 0.9876943826675416}", 'metadata': "{'Content-Length': '24718', 'Content-Type': 'application/http; msgtype=response', 'WARC-Block-Digest': 'sha1:5M4IVBO42XYQ3UATAMLK6KZ7TWRX4P3Q', 'WARC-Concurrent-To': '<urn:uuid:5c77caee-686e-4002-bf49-198aec362334>', 'WARC-Date': datetime.datetime(2019, 4, 19, 1, 14, 2), 'WARC-IP-Address': '72.249.48.122', 'WARC-Identified-Payload-Type': 'text/html', 'WARC-Payload-Digest': 'sha1:QZ5TVOIFTKDVMTGGFGH57JVYDBE7U52I', 'WARC-Record-ID': '<urn:uuid:377a47fe-40a3-4616-b504-0b9a65a75369>', 'WARC-Target-URI': 'https://oakeys.com/ragnars-5th-class/', 'WARC-Type': 'response', 'WARC-Warcinfo-ID': '<urn:uuid:6a096a5d-38b5-49ec-8104-60a9b195eccc>', 'WARC-Truncated': None}", 'previous_word_count': '243', 'url': 'https://oakeys.com/ragnars-5th-class/', 'warcinfo': 'isPartOf: CC-MAIN-2019-18\r\npublisher: Common Crawl\r\ndescription: Wide crawl of the web for April 2019\r\noperator: Common Crawl Admin (info@commoncrawl.org)\r\nhostname: ip-10-93-200-49.ec2.internal\r\nsoftware: Apache Nutch 1.15 (modified, https://github.com/commoncrawl/nutch/)\r\nrobots: checked via crawler-commons 1.1-SNAPSHOT (https://github.com/crawler-commons/crawler-commons)\r\nformat: WARC File Format 1.1\r\nconformsTo: http://iipc.github.io/warc-specifications/specifications/warc-format/warc-1.1/', 'fasttext_openhermes_reddit_eli5_vs_rw_v2_bigram_200k_train_prob': '0.04547476768493652', 'original_id': '5c40c53e266ad15a993e434c064004c3d2dc0a610f3b95a318164fd0f046cad0'} |
Youtube Search n’ Review: Lesson Plan Example
confirmation kittooseA Youtube Search n’ Review is a great way to start a class. It’s interesting for the students, and it buys you time. Sip your coffee and clear your head while they work!
1. Do a YOUTUBE SEARCH on the topic of “Confirmation Bias” or “Confirmatory Bias.”
2. Watch TWO videos (must be under 4 mins, each). Use headphones. If you don’t have any, use the headphones in the bin in the back of the class.
3. After watching, in your class notes,
A) explain confirmation bias in your own words.
B. Give the video a Grade (A thru F) in TWO categories. Category 1: how clearly it explained it. Category 2: How fun it was to watch.
C) explain why you graded it this way.
Then, discuss. | dclm_baseline | {'bff_contained_ngram_count_before_dedupe': '0', 'language_id_whole_page_fasttext': "{'en': 0.8143215775489807}", 'metadata': "{'Content-Length': '46109', 'Content-Type': 'application/http; msgtype=response', 'WARC-Block-Digest': 'sha1:C4LS6KWKTCX4356RU5Q7WP264VGHNSGG', 'WARC-Concurrent-To': '<urn:uuid:10df35d8-4280-4a1f-97b1-59596de7341a>', 'WARC-Date': datetime.datetime(2019, 10, 22, 6, 40, 24), 'WARC-IP-Address': '192.0.78.13', 'WARC-Identified-Payload-Type': 'text/html', 'WARC-Payload-Digest': 'sha1:7VBSBZOY3HBJX4EKWTXYWHEFGEE4LLAV', 'WARC-Record-ID': '<urn:uuid:80d31e4d-5920-40a5-87e9-536ec9c7292c>', 'WARC-Target-URI': 'https://evanwolkenstein.wordpress.com/tag/confirmation-bias/', 'WARC-Type': 'response', 'WARC-Warcinfo-ID': '<urn:uuid:8d1bb19e-c610-49a7-b786-b8252a8f52f2>', 'WARC-Truncated': None}", 'previous_word_count': '133', 'url': 'https://evanwolkenstein.wordpress.com/tag/confirmation-bias/', 'warcinfo': 'isPartOf: CC-MAIN-2019-43\r\npublisher: Common Crawl\r\ndescription: Wide crawl of the web for October 2019\r\noperator: Common Crawl Admin (info@commoncrawl.org)\r\nhostname: ip-10-67-67-24.ec2.internal\r\nsoftware: Apache Nutch 1.16 (modified, https://github.com/commoncrawl/nutch/)\r\nrobots: checked via crawler-commons 1.1-SNAPSHOT (https://github.com/crawler-commons/crawler-commons)\r\nformat: WARC File Format 1.1\r\nconformsTo: http://iipc.github.io/warc-specifications/specifications/warc-format/warc-1.1/', 'fasttext_openhermes_reddit_eli5_vs_rw_v2_bigram_200k_train_prob': '0.9890510439872742', 'original_id': '2abd68f8ff1e14ee137d4ca54a3c9f668a98416fac578567d62fdf24f35144b1'} |
What’s the difference between 110v and 220v hot tubs?
One of the nicest things about 110v or “plug and play” hot tubs is that once it’s sitting in your backyard, all you have to do to enjoy it is fill it up and plug it in. You don’t need to hire an electrician and hard wire anything. Because it only draws 11 amps, it can be plugged into a regular outdoor outlet.
Additional benefits of 110v hot tubs:
Simple, fast set up. All you have to do is plug it in.
You can finally own a hot tub even if you’re renting your home, since you don’t have to alter any electrical wiring.
Because they can be plugged in anywhere, can easily rearrange your backyard or take your spa with you if you move.
Now let’s talk about converting a plug-n-play spa to 220 volts. A misconception that we hear all the time is that converting a spa to 220 volts will increase the jet power. That is completely false. Converting a hot tub from 110v to 220v has absolutely no effect whatsoever on jet performance. You will however see a difference in the heating time and pump power. When the hot tub is converted to 220v, the heater gets more power. With Freeflow spas, the heater goes from 1.5 horse power to 3.5 horse power.
Because of the added power of the heater, the spa is able to heat the water faster. This is really only a benefit when you are heating the water for the first time. Both 110v and 220v spas will keep the water hot around the clock.
220v spas can heat the water while the jets are on high or low. 110v spas can only heat the water while the jets are on low.
All Freeflow Spas come standard as a 110v plug-n-play hot tub, but can easily be converted to 220 volts by a licensed electrician. And regardless of your chosen voltage, all Freeflow Spas come fully insulated for maximum heat retention so your spa is always hot and ready, whenever you are.
Contact us when you’re ready to get pricing on a Freeflow Spa!

Labels And Name-calling
The internet is a wonderful thing. That is important to remember as we also note that the internet is one of the worst things that has happened to serious thinking and conversation. Its ability to shrink the world into near-instantaneous communication across the globe, to make the most remote places on earth our virtual next-door neighbors, is almost impossible to comprehend. Yet the problem comes in what we are frequently saying to our neighbors. The world of “social media” is all-too-often anything but social.
In the 140 character limit that is a Twitter tweet, or the typical five sentences or less than make up a Facebook post, or the captioned photo or illustration that passes for visual sharing, there is simply no way that any real information of any depth can be communicated. No existing belief will be changed, no new perspective will be embraced, no understanding of the breadth of multiple factors involved in any issue will surface. Within these snippets of word fragments, we simply see confirmation of our preexisting beliefs, or are enraged by someone’s contrary opinion. We are then reduced to “voting” our approval of what we already believe, or aggressively firing back verbally at the transgressor’s contrariness. Share; Comment; Reply All; Forward. In a split second, our opinion has digitally circumnavigated the globe.
Rather than meaningfully listening to and exchanging divergent views, we more typically stick labels onto the opinion, or engage in name-calling using words that would likely never be said in face-to-face dialog. The anonymity of the digital page creates a safe space for us to threaten others’ sense of personal safety. Especially on issues of politics, government, religious conviction, and personal lifestyle.
The most common dismissive labels are, of course, “Republican” and “Democrat,” along with the good old standbys, “liberal” and “conservative.” Each of these terms is used disparagingly to inherently invalidate a particular point of view (“typical liberal stance” or “those Republicans hate people”) without ever bothering to really consider that point of view. We do not distinguish between institutional Republicans or Democrats – the professional elected politicians and Party operatives – versus their rank and file registered voters with whom they may or may not be in sync. Or the many party “wings” that branch off the central platform: the Dixiecrats of the 1940s; the “Blue Dog” Democrats of the 2000s; the “silk stocking” moderate-liberal Republicans of the 1950/1960s, and the current “Freedom Caucus” in the House. Does Peter King (R-NY) really inhabit the same political planet as Louie Gohmert (R-TX)?
Hence the rise of the “independent” who currently has no place to call home. The socially progressive person who also believes that excess government debt is not a healthy position. The person who feels that government should be a last resort for action, but also believes we share a mutual responsibility to take care of one another and ensure our equal opportunity. The person who acknowledges that owning a gun is a protected legal right, but, like all other rights, is limited by demonstrating responsibility. The person that admires economic success and reward in our free market system, but also recognizes that greed is a human frailty that requires regulation and oversight to keep that market truly free. The person that believes in limited government, but that government is still required, especially as a counterbalance in a time when mega-sized and mega-rich organizations dominate the decision-making for their individual personal gain.
Growing up, a political “conservative” used to refer to someone with a preference for limiting government intrusion into our personal lives, and resisting any mandate that everyone live and think the same way. Today, many of those who call themselves conservative are the very ones advocating adherence to a single point of view, a single religious basis for our country, a single set of personal values and life-styles . All while allowing “the government” to be able to snoop into our privacy in the name of “national defense” with minimal constitutional oversight. It has now been turned upside down with “liberals” aligned with “libertarians” leading the fight to resist this intervention into the law and interference into the social fabric. How did such a fascinating role reversal come about with so little acknowledgement of it?
In our digital world, we skip over the effort of discussion and simply (re-)broadcast the billboards of our opinions. Hence someone against the recent nuclear treaty with Iran grandly pronounces that “John Kerry is the worst Secretary of State in history.” Reading that, I could not help but wonder whether that writer could even name six Secretaries of State prior to 1945, or how he would evaluate John Foster Dulles or Henry Kissinger. Similarly, Barack Obama’s presidency is pilloried as “a disaster,” yet more than a few past presidents would love to have achieved his factual economic percentages. Bernie Sanders is dismissed as anti-American because if his “socialist” beliefs, while many of those detractors could not define what socialism is and why it matters. Is Social Security/Medicare socialism, or the U.S. Postal Service, or the laws shoring up and protecting the antiquated oil/gas/coal industries? Donald Trump is dismissed as a “carnival barker and clown,” but in doing so do we simultaneously cavalierly dismiss the fears of millions of Americans who resonate with his declarations?
Some people think we should reduce government spending and debt, but it is always someone else’s government check that they want to reduce. People receiving food stamps are labeled as “takers” and “welfare loafers who should get a job,” skipping over that a substantial number of recipients are retirees who already worked all their life, and military families and the working poor paid too little to afford the American economy. One writer accused a U.S. Senator of being a hypocrite because of her supposed inconsistency in being “pro-choice” (i.e. the killing of fetuses) while supporting gun safety laws to protect school children – the writer not acknowledging that killing comes in many forms (war, death penalty, right-to-die, self-defense, etc.), each drawing us to separate moral judgments about the different ways we kill.
The issues we live with in human life are many, and they are complex. Trying to stake out a position, a solution, in 140 characters is like trying to stop a tsunami wave with a single sandbag. It cannot be done. All issues we face have many inputs, many considerations, many constituencies. Each must be considered and interwoven into the solutions we need. All the verbal grenades we throw at each other bring us nowhere closer to shared resolution, but only harden our separation.
We who self-servingly rail against the partisanship and polarizing so evident in America today need to first look inward. Then take an extra second before we speak – or press Share or Forward. We may make fun of speaking in politically correct-ese, but is not most political correctness simply speaking in kindness and being considerate of others? If we truly want to end the rancor, stop the polarization, and find genuine solutions, it all starts within each of us. We have to take down our soapbox banners, stop speaking in meaningless generalities, spend time listening to other perspectives, adjust our opinions, and rein in our belief of being 100% right. Then we can choose to turn away from those who are more invested in our division rather than our resolution. We can choose to hang around with listening people who like to think. Even if they think differently,

Q:
How to check if method is declared using reflection?
I'm thinking about possibility of checking if methods was declared? For example in code
class foo
{
variable.getSomething(true);
}
Can I check if method getSomething(true) was declared and what is value of boolean arrgument using reflection?
A:
You use the Class#getMethod() call for reflection. method_name is the method you are looking for. For the primitive you want to just use the lower case boolean.class. Boolean.TYPE will work as well for the primitive value. Boolean.class will not work at all because it is the object type.
Class<variable type> clazz = variable.getClass();
try {
//Boolean.TYPE can be used instead of boolean.class
Method m = clazz.getMethod("method_name", boolean.class);
//method exists
}
catch(NoSuchMethodException e) {
//method does not exist
}

First Comes Love: Nina Davenport Births a Son–And a Great Doc
July 24, 2013
Tell enough guys the premise of auteur-of-the-self Nina Davenport’s HBO doc First Comes Love, and at least a couple will confirm through their reactions just why First Comes Love matters. The inevitable carping: “Two hours about this unmarried woman’s decision to have a baby? How narcissistic!” Or: “A fortyish Manhattanite getting pregnant on her own is supposed to be news? I know four!” In the film—which is wise, warm, funny, open, and more interested in life as it’s actually lived than any other to debut this summer—that sort of why bother? is trumped by her own father. “Send for the abortionist!” he cries after Davenport tells him she’s pregnant. A couple seconds later, it becomes clear he’s not joking.
No more narcissistic than Proust, and concerned with nothing less than why the drive to mother surges with such power even in women who have built lives fully removed from what earlier generations would have dubbed proper, First Comes Love is, before anything else, a portrait of a longing so deep that even the commandingly articulate Davenport struggles to put it into words. “I have this biological compulsion to have a kid, and I don’t know why,” she says. Her friends, male and female, weigh in. One tells her it is a feeling stirred by all the love inside her; a single mother says, “I could live without being married. It’s disappointing. But if I did not have these kids, I don’t think I could have been happy. I don’t think I could have had a satisfying life.”
That answer may get to why so many men I’ve talked to seem quick to dismiss Davenport’s film. In an age of unprecedented freedoms, especially in a reason-minded blue state, even that most overriding of all impulses—to perpetuate the species—can come to look to the unsympathetic like a self-involved elective, a decision along the lines of taking yoga or going back to grad school. One of Davenport’s father’s objections is that Davenport, being a documentarian, doesn’t have the money to bring up a child in the comfort that she was raised in. His qualms, like even churlish viewers’ will, dissipate the moment he meets the child himself, a beaming dumpling of promise.
He’s cute, but this is Davenport’s story. We see her New York—BFFs and a one-bedroom and a boyfriend who gets involved with her after she’s pregnant with another man’s donated sperm. We see her parents, in home movies, larking on a honeymoon, and discover something of how her father came to be distant. She can’t say why she wants to be a mother. But as we watch her become one, it’s clear she’s made the right decision, that her own satisfaction becomes fully tangled up in caring for the life she’s created. We hear her pee on a pregnancy test, see her body swell up, even witness the baby plop right out of her, followed by a splash of rich fluid. That image of live birth, so often glossed over by a media that presumes it horrific, here is quick and revelatory. Through this mother’s tears and pain, a new self comes squalling out, another regular person whose story, if captured by a journalist/artist/whatever as certain as Davenport, might one day mean the world to us. | mini_pile | {'original_id': 'b76d2f195a0004e7e439e07a32948278935407758d3fb0f5a5ff8c15a3c32f30'} |
Creating Standard Operating Procedures
Summary:Standard Operating Procedure
A standard operating procedure (SOP) is a set of written instructions that describes in detail how to perform a laboratory process or experiment safely and effectively. SOPs are a requirement of Stanford University’s Chemical Hygiene Plan, as described in section 4.0.The scope of an SOP can cover:
• The specific use of a chemical or class of chemicals (such as a specific laboratory procedure).
• The generic use specific chemical or class of chemicals with similar hazards (for example, mineral acids).
• A generic procedure (such as distillation) that covers several chemicals.
The PI/Lab Supervisor is responsible for providing written Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) relevant to health and safety for laboratory activities he/she directs involving hazardous chemicals. Laboratory personnel working autonomously or performing independent research are responsible for developing SOPs appropriate for their own work using the guidance below.
Prioritizing SOP Development
Priority for SOP development should be given to any operation involving Restricted Chemicals, certain higher risk chemicals, such as particularly hazardous chemicals and highly reactive chemicals, and specified higher risk research procedures described in the CHP.
What to do? How to do this?
1. Prioritize SOPs to generate Consult with PI/Laboratory Supervisor on above guidance.
2. Create SOPs Use SU’s SOP Template or equivalent.If using SU SOP Template:
1. Complete Sections 1 -10.
1. The grey text provides guidance on how to complete the section. Guidance text may be deleted.
2. Some sections indicate blanks to complete.
3. Section #7, Emergency Procedures, provides the established Stanford University procedures to follow, with specific contact information to be added.
2. After completion, review the SOP with your Principal Investigator/Lab Supervisor. [NOTE: At any time, you are welcome to consult with EH&S (723-0448) during the development of your SOP.]
General Use SOPs
General use SOPs for the major classes of hazardous chemicals are available for you to incorporate into your own SOPs, as appropriate.
3. Maintain SOPs Maintain copy that is physically or electronically accessible to all lab members.
4. Revise SOPs Consult with PI/Laboratory Supervisor on SOP on timeframe for re-evaluating and revising SOP to ensure it reflects current best practices. | dclm_baseline | {'bff_contained_ngram_count_before_dedupe': '0', 'language_id_whole_page_fasttext': "{'en': 0.89700847864151}", 'metadata': "{'Content-Length': '28174', 'Content-Type': 'application/http; msgtype=response', 'WARC-Block-Digest': 'sha1:2Q2GCRRW7RGTKQD4DOK3LWMDHNSVE42C', 'WARC-Concurrent-To': '<urn:uuid:1675a3d4-e549-4aa9-8a83-da975441d16c>', 'WARC-Date': datetime.datetime(2014, 8, 1, 15, 52, 50), 'WARC-IP-Address': '171.67.215.200', 'WARC-Identified-Payload-Type': None, 'WARC-Payload-Digest': 'sha1:X3BOF23DOUGYGJPXNE6KGGFPP4YWCPEK', 'WARC-Record-ID': '<urn:uuid:c7ceb856-5e3b-48ed-9e8c-5e0842c920f0>', 'WARC-Target-URI': 'http://web.stanford.edu/dept/EHS/cgi-bin/lcst/creating-standard-operating-procedures/', 'WARC-Type': 'response', 'WARC-Warcinfo-ID': '<urn:uuid:a051a114-8f91-48a6-b6f9-5ebd9c0227ea>', 'WARC-Truncated': None}", 'previous_word_count': '348', 'url': 'http://web.stanford.edu/dept/EHS/cgi-bin/lcst/creating-standard-operating-procedures/', 'warcinfo': 'robots: classic\r\nhostname: ip-10-146-231-18.ec2.internal\r\nsoftware: Nutch 1.6 (CC)/CC WarcExport 1.0\r\nisPartOf: CC-MAIN-2014-23\r\noperator: CommonCrawl Admin\r\ndescription: Wide crawl of the web with URLs provided by Blekko for July 2014\r\npublisher: CommonCrawl\r\nformat: WARC File Format 1.0\r\nconformsTo: http://bibnum.bnf.fr/WARC/WARC_ISO_28500_version1_latestdraft.pdf', 'fasttext_openhermes_reddit_eli5_vs_rw_v2_bigram_200k_train_prob': '0.6423038244247437', 'original_id': 'a7148c58fea1cce0c6b1587c03d6dc28df4d4945298d2fa4afae10b8e52a8c02'} |
\section{Pointwise Scalar Multiple of Measurable Function is Measurable}
Tags: Measurable Functions
\begin{theorem}
Let $\struct {X, \Sigma}$ be a measurable space.
Let $f : X \to \overline \R$ be a $\Sigma$-measurable function.
Let $\alpha \in \overline \R$ be an extended real number.
Then the pointwise scalar multiple $\alpha f$ is $\Sigma$-measurable.
\end{theorem}
\begin{proof}
We want to show that:
:$\set {x \in X : \alpha \map f x \le t}$ is $\Sigma$-measurable for each $t \in \R$.
in each of the cases:
:$(1): \quad$ $\alpha = 0$
:$(2): \quad$ $0 < \alpha < \infty$
:$(3): \quad$ $-\infty < \alpha < 0$
:$(4): \quad$ $\alpha = \infty$
:$(5): \quad$ $\alpha = -\infty$
If $\alpha = 0$, then $\alpha f = 0$, and $\alpha f$ is $\Sigma$-measurable from Constant Function is Measurable, giving case $(1)$.
Suppose that $0 < \alpha < \infty$.
Since $f$ is $\Sigma$-measurable, we have that:
:$\ds \set {x \in X : \map f x \le \frac t \alpha}$ is $\Sigma$-measurable for each $t \in \R$.
Since:
:$\ds \set {x \in X : \alpha \map f x \le t} = \set {x \in X : \map f x \le \frac t \alpha}$
we have the theorem in the case $\alpha > 0$, giving case $(2)$.
Suppose that $-\infty < \alpha < 0$.
Since $f$ is $\Sigma$-measurable, we have from Characterization of Measurable Functions:
:$\ds \set {x \in X :\map f x \ge \frac t \alpha}$ is $\Sigma$-measurable for each $t \in \R$.
Since:
:$\ds \set {x \in X : \alpha \map f x \le t} = \set {x \in X :\map f x \ge \frac t \alpha}$
we have the theorem in the case $\alpha < 0$, giving case $(3)$.
Suppose that $\alpha = \infty$.
Then from the definition of extended real multiplication, we have:
:$\map {\paren {\alpha f} } x = \begin{cases}\infty & \map f x \ne 0 \\ 0 & \map f x = 0\end{cases}$
If $t < 0$, we have:
:$\set {x \in X : \alpha \map f x \le t} = \O$
which is $\Sigma$-measurable.
If $t \ge 0$, we have:
:$\set {x \in X : \alpha \map f x \le t} = \set {x \in X : \map f x = 0}$
From Measurable Functions Determine Measurable Sets and Constant Function is Measurable, we have that:
:$\set {x \in X : \map f x = 0} \in \Sigma$
So:
:$\set {x \in X : \alpha \map f x \le t}$ is $\Sigma$-measurable for each $t \in \R$
giving case $(4)$.
Suppose that $\alpha = -\infty$.
From the rules of extended real multiplication, we have:
:$\paren {-\infty} \times f = -\paren {\infty \times f}$
From case $(4)$, we have that:
:$\infty \times f$ is $\Sigma$-measurable.
From case $(2)$, we then have:
:$\paren {-1} \times \paren {\infty \times f} = \paren {-\infty} \times f$ is $\Sigma$-measurable
hence showing case $(5)$.

I am a 57 year old female. Perfect weight, 5'6 128 pounds. However, I have a very BIG PROBLEM with my EXTREMELY REDUNDANT COLON. I went for a routine colonoscopy when I was 50 but the doctor woke me up immediately after starting the procedure. He said in over 10 thousand procedures, he has NEVER seen a more redundant colon. He then advised me to never attempt to have a colonoscopy again because if I do then most likely, my colon would be perforated or the camera would get stuck and have to be surgically removed.
Since this experience my Mother not knowing of my ordeal attempted to have a colonoscopy and her colon was perforated and she died a few days later of sepsis. (Perhaps this extremely redundant colon is hereditary?)
I had a barium enema several years ago and the technician had a very difficult time because the barium was stuck in several of my colon loops and would not flow through properly.
Because of my severely redundant bowel, I am on Miralax (one scoop a day)
and that keeps my bowels moving once a day or sometimes every other day. Without it, I would go for 15 days with no bowel movement and become very distended and ill.
I had a Virtual Colonoscopy a few years ago and had much difficulty with the prep. With much delayed reaction to the prep, my bowels did not start to empty out until a couple hours prior to the procedure, and when they finally started to move, I had numerous explosive movements and I ended up wearing a diaper to the hospital, still having explosive movements up to the time of the procedure. They almost would not do the procedure because, I was still expelling brown water.
I recently had been having heartburn so my general doctor ordered an upper GI. That procedure went well and the doctor immediately saw reflux, however, even though I am taking the Miralax daily, 9 FULL SIZE BOWEL MOVEMENTS LATER, and 7 DAYS LATER, is when the BARIUM showed up in my stools. That means that poop is taking several days to travel out of my body. Like a backed up train, waiting for one car to exit at a time.
I don't know what to do, if there is anything that can be done.... but I would sure like to be normal. I am also fearful that with the bowel taking so long to empty through my digestive tract, that I could end up with colon cancer. | mini_pile | {'original_id': '46826e07ca6f15e4eea95f915d928e7453d27eb8aa65eb5fee36e80a903fa71f'} |

Mute #JesuisCharlie
22 janvier 2015
je-suis-charlieEveryday’s routine, it goes on…
Time hasn’t stopped. Nothing’s changed and yet everything is different.
It’s the same winter cold hurting your hands and preventing the blood to flow, the same people tapping their feet in the bleak morning, waiting for the train to pull up, trying to wake up, trying to figure out reality from their dreams, the same clock telling you to get up, you sleep walk through the routine, you close your eyes under the water beating down your neck, your back, your face, you stand in front of your closet trying to figure out what to wear, cursing yourself for not planning ahead, yesterday you should have thought about tomorrow. You should have known. Someone should have known.
You’re not hungry. You never are before you leave but now your stomach hurts.
Nothing seems real anymore, everything hurts, even more than usual, if you wake up the numbness will stop and it can’t, how can you go on, how can you accept the routine, the minutes, the days, how can life go on… If you wake up you will start feeling and anger will rush in, with frustration and the deafening noise of things left unsaid.
Please tell me… how to look down in my child’s innocent eyes and explain.
Something happened.
You can’t wrap up your mind around it.
Somewhere in your head, there’s a young girl screaming that this isn’t right. If someone came into your home, if someone pushed the door and walked and spread terror, what then, how would you go on… You often get angry when your kids don’t lock the door, they feel so safe and confident, probably thanks to you, they are very curious and unafraid, you and your inner barriers admire that in them. Look, all these people dead Maman, look at those mad men, why Maman, can’t they take a joke? Poor them then. The adults are so intense and weird. It’s a pretty harsh way to disagree over a bad joke.
They bend their head solemnly; somehow they got it quicker than you.
This is what it feels like. This is what happened
Someone walked into your home and killed people you had never met, even though you knew all their names and faces, even thought you had read their work, laughed at some of their jokes and frowned over others. Some one walked over your soul and reminded you that nothing is forever, they showed you how hard it is to remain true to freedom, how much courage it takes to unabashly laugh in spite of or because of how absurd our world is.
You who won’t speak, you who knows so well how to love and embrace the present, today you can’t cry over what is nor over what will never be. You are mourning in silence, knowing things must change but not quite sure where to start.
They had so much joy and irony in them, still, they had so much to do, to draw, to speak of.
They have been robbed of a future and you feel like you have been robbed too, that something that wasn’t quite yours but that you felt you could claim as yours was ripped away.
Today’s routine is about whys an why nots, it’s about never knowing when you will be home, where exactly will people be so afraid that they will call in a bomb scare, the threat is unreal and only exists in themselves, to you everyone is a potential companion whether is be for 5 minutes or a lifetime, today is about trains going backwards and people trapped and scared, today is about walking endless hallways and finding a way home… and when you forget your phone, you are truly even more peacefully alone than usual.
Life will go on. People will heal, they will forget, blindness is so much more comfortable. There will only be a few, like you, waking up in the middle of the night to wonder and cry for the lost ones and the darkness in the ennemy’s souls, for, so you think, they must have endured hell on earth to hate so much that the only answer would be to walk into someone else’s home, cross the sacred threshold and shed blood. There is no redemption, there is no going back and you have no answer and so, in your own innocent loneliness, all you can do is walk the hallways in the cold and find your way home to hold your children.
And when you arrive, they will look at you and say:
– They are not lost, they are dicks.
And they will be right. | dclm_baseline | {'bff_contained_ngram_count_before_dedupe': '2', 'language_id_whole_page_fasttext': "{'en': 0.956833839416504}", 'metadata': "{'Content-Length': '38870', 'Content-Type': 'application/http; msgtype=response', 'WARC-Block-Digest': 'sha1:KD2PXRBKDMOWFU56OLRGUTQZSSLPJFAB', 'WARC-Concurrent-To': '<urn:uuid:7c391098-4d54-4fa5-9aca-1adba7b5a8d2>', 'WARC-Date': datetime.datetime(2018, 12, 18, 17, 19, 23), 'WARC-IP-Address': '192.0.78.24', 'WARC-Identified-Payload-Type': 'application/xhtml+xml', 'WARC-Payload-Digest': 'sha1:6PKAZBH5MIZDYASWGZAT2JVMZNNHGH3S', 'WARC-Record-ID': '<urn:uuid:23dceed6-74a8-4f98-bdd2-ecb9c45e873b>', 'WARC-Target-URI': 'https://doigtsdencre.org/2015/01/', 'WARC-Type': 'response', 'WARC-Warcinfo-ID': '<urn:uuid:f1edd773-849e-4d29-ae64-6947e6808ee0>', 'WARC-Truncated': None}", 'previous_word_count': '788', 'url': 'https://doigtsdencre.org/2015/01/', 'warcinfo': 'isPartOf: CC-MAIN-2018-51\r\npublisher: Common Crawl\r\ndescription: Wide crawl of the web for December 2018\r\noperator: Common Crawl Admin (info@commoncrawl.org)\r\nhostname: ip-10-142-187-161.ec2.internal\r\nsoftware: Apache Nutch 1.15 (modified, https://github.com/commoncrawl/nutch/)\r\nrobots: checked via crawler-commons 0.11-SNAPSHOT (https://github.com/crawler-commons/crawler-commons)\r\nformat: WARC File Format 1.1\r\nconformsTo: http://iipc.github.io/warc-specifications/specifications/warc-format/warc-1.1/', 'fasttext_openhermes_reddit_eli5_vs_rw_v2_bigram_200k_train_prob': '0.6693741083145142', 'original_id': '75200718f7d9b2e7c29f9fb56b76362d54ab257bc67c2d44c2937114dec5cacf'} |

1. 2019 price update. FTG Nissan just quoted me $850 odd for a major service of my 2007 V36. Should be in and out in a day. $25 to hire a loaner car to cover petrol if I want. I didn't realise but my car has a timing chain, no need to change it.
2. Hey guys, My 2007 V36 Skyline is due for it's 100,000km service. I'm assuming this is similar to the R33/34's and the timing belt needs to be changed and other bigger items. I've been servicing my Skyline at an excellent (expensive!) independent mechanic although I feel I should go to Infiniti or a Premium Nissan dealer for this one. Was thinking of either Nissan Werribee, Infiniti Brighton or Nissan FTG. All of them a hassle to get the car to. I imagine they'll need it for at least a whole day, maybe more. I know FTG has a good little office I can bring my laptop and 'work from home' from, although what would be even better would be one that had a loaner car I could borrow during the service. Obviously I'd want someone who knows the car very well and will do a great job of servicing it most of all - potentially even flash the firmware and so on. Can anyone tell me what are the main things done in the 100km service, roughly how much (I figured $2k?) and personal experiences with V36's at these places? Thanks
3. Cool, I thought so. Mine gets really really filthy with trips out the country. I was thinking of combining both, a cheapie $99 Karcher pressure washer , this $45 suction hose kit (which is a rip off but required because it has the fancy valves in it to stop sucking in air and allow it to work against gravity) to first spray it all down and then use the rinse-less wash to 'wash' the car and perhaps a powerful air blower to dry it. I just can't see the rinse-less wash washing off splattered on bugs, heavy dirt and other hard to remove things like that. Combined with buckets and sponges it looks like I'd be spending near $200 just to wash my car at home, now I know why I've been using the $5 do it your things. Went to wash it at my nearest one but the queue was 3 cars deep, one of the cons of living inner city.
4. Gee that ONR stuff looks awesome. Does it really work? I've seen a few YouTubes and it's people using it to clean already clean looking cars. Mine is black, parked outside and looks TERRIBLE and filthy after a downpour. Hard to imagine it turning that into something clean with little friction based 'washing'.
5. Ok cool. Just the most basic one then. My current problem is finding a basic one that draws water from a bucket - the only one with the portable water source that I can see is the high end V36 battery powered Ryobi for $349 - 499... Wish I jumped on the Aldi one sooner.
6. Hi guys, I'm in a 70's apartment complex and I really wish I could hand wash my Skyline. I currently take it to the $1 wash places. I do have power but I have no water/tap nearby. Also, I don't want too much soapy water run off in the common driveway area, I'm sure a little is fine though. I'd like to know what type of high pressure washer would be best. I saw at Aldi there are some available that can source water from a bucket via a hose, and also at Bunnings there are these things these Ryobi 20L bladders. My questions are - how much pressure would I need to give my car a good wash? These things range from $99 up to $499 and brands Ryobi, Karcher, Gurni, etc. This Ryobi 1800W 2000PSI for $129 looks good, although it doesn't look like it can use a portable water source. Questions: I've noticed some have a soap tank and some a separate soap bottle attachment - either of these good or should I just stick with soapy water in a bucket? How quickly do these units use up the water? I mean, if I had a standard household bucket or the 20L bladder, would that be enough for a good wash or would I need to keep refilling it? What would be the minimum power / PSI I would want for a reasonable clean? Are any of the brands much better / worse than the others? Any recommendations on a mains powered portable water version? Thanks!!
7. Yes, there are two settings - don't ask me where they are though! I use a translator app on my phone. Phone via speaker seems fine really. It may actually work again via the car audio but I haven't tested it. Overall it works better like this, i.e. when I used to use Siri it would pause and flick over to the car's audio and was clunky, but just for music it's a smoother experience.
8. I lived with it for a long time, but have recently fixed it. All I did was unpair and re-pair the phone again and my issues went away. It does work slightly different now, I'm only using the audio streaming (Spotify, YouTube, Podcasts, etc) but not bluetooth for calls (I just use the iPhone speaker for that). Seems to work much better just like this.
9. Nah, unfortunately not. It has a compact flash card reader (to sync song names) and AV input for video display, but no USB input.
10. Hi guys, I've successfully paired my iPhone 6S to my 2007 V36 Skyline. It's worked well for years, although every now and then I wipe/reinstall iOS on my phone and have to do the painful pairing procedure again. It's paired, but problem is it keeps randomly disconnecting. In the past I solved this by doing a fresh iOS install on my phone and pairing it again, but this time the problem persists. I haven't noticed any pattern as to why it drops out, and I have to keep reconnected it by switching to radio then back to 'disc' (bluetooth) again. It's really annoying when I'm going on a long drive, it can happen as much as every 3-5 minutes or so. Any idea why this happens and how to fix it? Thanks!
11. Hi guys, I saw a second hand hybrid Q50 that was a 2013 model. It got me wondering, whats the deal with the batteries in these things now that they are 5 years old? Do they still work OK just hold less charge / use more petrol? How does it all work? Thanks!
12. BTW I was just quoted $350 + GST ($385) from a Nissan Melbourne dealer for a 20L drum of Nissan Matic S. I want to use the right stuff but ummm... yeah, nah. Nengun sell it for $190 AUD a 20L drum but my account doesn't work and I don't know if that's shipped or not. I can also see it on Alibaba Express direct from Japan but can't get a price without an account. My understanding is the Matic S, while a replacement for the J, is really only required for the 7 speed autos? Mine being a 5 speed I'm going to ask if they have Matic J in stock, how much and can I use that. Makes me wonder how old their stock is given S came around circa 2008-2009?
13. I thought they didn't ship internationally? "This product ships UPS ground only. WE CAN'T SHIP FLUIDS INTERNATIONALLY!!!!!!!!!"
14. I would highly recommend NOT letting this issue hold you back They are amazing cars for the money and you'll only read about the very small % of users on the forum who have an issue like this. I'm sure the vast majority of users have no problems at all.
15. OK, done the searching for you. It does seem there are special 'certified GTR dealers'. Find them here - http://www.nissangtr-nz.com/en/web_GTR/buying/buying_dealer.htm

There is no unique “Companionship Therapy.” It is not a therapeutic orientation in the sense of being a set of techniques, rather the term denotes that process resulting from a specific combination of interpersonal ingredients. The recipe can be stated roughly as: take a nonprofessional or paraprofessional counselor chosen for his interpersonal competence, orient him toward not giving advice, pair him with a client, structure frequent contact into the relationship that evolves, and have a professional oversee its progress.

Design Guidelines. City of Fulton, New York
2052052 City of Fulton Design Guidelines2The City of Fulton commissioned Laberge Group with Architectural Resources for the creation of a Phase II BOA Nomination Study and Design Guidelines and Streetscape Standards. The aim of providing design guidelines is to improve the character and quality of life in Fulton, to facilitate redevelopment, and to encourage residents and visitors to patronize businesses in downtown Fulton.
These guidelines enhance the sense of place and preserve the small town character of Fulton by supporting the development of mixed-use buildings in the downtown core, reinforce the downtown character as an attractive, family-friendly destination with safe, walkable streets, and facilitate a business-friendly environment in a more pedestrian-friendly atmosphere. Design elements such as street trees, building massing and orientation, landscaping and crosswalks, can strengthen a vibrant core that is already established. Historical development patterns that emphasize the automobile over the pedestrian often result in the removal of buildings that once formed the community’s center. These Design Guidelines seek to promote rebuilding in the character of the downtown as a region’s center, where the community’s collective goals include creating a safe and vibrant place to live, work and visit. The intention is to provide a framework for creating and maintaining a sense of place in Fulton while also expanding the local economy.
2052052 City of Fulton Design GuidelinesThe Design Guidelines outline methods to enhance significant elements of Fulton’s community character. The intent of the Design Guidelines is to protect or enhance the following elements of community character and accomplished the following goals:
• Clearly identifying downtown Fulton as a unique place within the Central New York region.
• Promoting a safe, diverse, lively and active street life in downtown Fulton.
• Enhancing the family-friendly environment.
• Providing convenient access to amenities.
• Encouraging and expand the pedestrian use of downtown Fulton.
• Strengthening private and public sector investments that keep Fulton healthy and vibrant.
• Encouraging new investment.

Officials of the congress expect an entry list of 1,000 teams. Such a number would constitute a new record. San Francisco has not been represented at a bowling tournament since 1905, but will send a five to Toledo. It will be made up of members of the Elks Lodge and will participate at the Elks' tourney in Chicago preceding the international event here. Prominent among the 1922 entries is the Saunders Five of Toledo which not only won the international five-men championship at Buffalo last spring, but which established a new world's record with a 3,636 three-game total. New York's representation will consist of 23 teams. Denver is increasing the number of its teams to three. Other cities to have large delegations will be Detroit, Buffalo, Chicago, St. Louis, Pittsburgh, Cincinnati, Milwaukee, Cleveland, Fort Wayne, Indianapolis, and Toledo. Entries will close February 1, according to announcement by A. L. Langtry, secretary of the congress. PORTLAND PITCHER WEDDED IN WINDSOR ANN ARBOR, Mich., Jan. 10.—Announcement of the marriage of Vernon H. Parks and Miss Violet Brandt at Windsor, Ont., is made here.

CHILL WINTER’S WINDS TURN SPORT DEVOTEES SOUTHWARD WHERE “IT’S JUNE IN MIAMI” President Harding, in his shirtsleeves, put his stamp of approval on the Miami golf courses when wintry blasts swept northern links. The devotee of open air sports who finds his occupation cone as the icy toasts of winter sweep the northern coast courses and violets fields has turned his attention towards winter brines, where winter brines no ice and snow. Because “it's June in Miami," the city farthest south on the mainland of the United States, the Florida winter resort has become the Mecca for thousands whose interests lie with field sports. Under the golden sunshine of Miami, the golf enthusiast like President Harding can make his round of the course in white flannels and shirtsleeves, in midwinter, when the northern golf player has decided to lay up his clubs because his club links are knee deep in snow or frozen slush. Miami opened its winter season early this year—just as soon as the first chill winds of winter sent the pleasure seekers scurrying south looking for warmth. The city that bakes in the gentle warmth that the crack polo teams of the United States will compete this year on the polo fields at Miami, Florida, the land of palms and sunshine, flows from the blue Gulf Stream. The golf course of the north was crowded with winter residents by mid-December, and the numerous golf courses were soon sprinkled with the enthusiasts who had been driven from their home links in the north by winter weather. When the clubhouses of the north are snowed under, the Miami Country Club is basking in the southern sunshine and preparing for its mid-winter golf tournament which this year will be held from January 2nd to 27. Polo, too, a typical summer sport, has taken hold at Miami and polo fields that cost hundreds of thousands of dollars lure the polo player and enthusiast from the north. Each year, hundreds of polo ponies are shipped to the Miami stables, and each year the Cuban polo team journeys to Miami to compete with American teams on a field that compares favorably with the older fields at Long Island and Meadowbrook. Of course, with June in Miami, winter sports are a great feature of life in the city. Farhest South in mid-winter, and weekly water sports tournaments are held on Miami's palm-shaded beaches. So now, when the cities of the north shiver in the icy blasts, the devotee of open-air sports turns his face toward Miami. NAMES OF NEWPORTLAND BALL PLAYERS OUT McCann, Charley High, Freeman and Greset to Join Klepper’s Club. PORTLAND, Ore., Jan. 10.—Bill Klepper’s plan of announcing the names of his new stars, coming from Detroit through purchase from the Athletics, blew up when somebody in Philadelphia spilled the beans. The shortstop on whom Klepper has been hanking so much is Emmett McCann last year with the Athletics, who fielded third among the junior league shortstoppers but who found the pitching a little hard to fathom hitting only 223. However, in the Class A A. International League the previous year, he hit 305, leading the shortstop with the fine average of.371. He is a right-handed hitter. When Klepper said that he had an outfielder coming who would scratch half of the pitcher in this league to death, he made no false statement. Charley High is the boy. He is a brother of Hugh High, the Vernon left fielder. High is a left-handed hitter. In 1912, he was with Atlanta in the Southern Association and hit 288. He continued to improve in his hitting when he joined the Athletics in the latter part of the season and hit 238. Last season, he was with the Columbus club of the American Association, where he hit 343 in 150 games. Klepper's $3.00 pitcher is Buck Freeman, a youngster who came from a small Michigan College and who was also with the Athletics last year. He won one and lost four games, his victim being the Cleveland Club. However, the youth is said to be a great prospect. Klepper's other player is Percy Gressett, a left-handed hitting outfielder who hit 328 for Sweetwater in the West Texas League and who hit 305 for Evansville in the Three-Eye League last year. Besides these, Klepper is negotiating for a big league catcher. STANFORD MAY TOUR JAPAN NEXT SEASO STANFORD UNIVERSITY, Cal. Jan. 11.- -Stanford's baseball team probably will tour Japan next summer, if it has a successful season this spring, according to present plans. An offer from several Japanese universities is being considered. The team, which will be practically the same as last season, plays the alumni in its first game February 1. Later, the varsity team of California will play the University of California. 'S Independents I San Francisco senti-p juI ms.

NEW YORK, Jan. 10. -Cordial relations between the East and Middle West developed by numerous inter factional games during The past foot ball season, may give way to a wide berth and eventual severance of religious. The controversy arose during the meeting of the National College Athletic Association over the seniority of the East on the track and field. Had feeling between the two sections was first engendered last summer, when it was charged that the East failed to take seriously the track and field games for the national championship held in Chicago. Athletic officials of the Midwest ruled that in the past the West had to send teams East to compete and when the East had a chance to reciprocate, it failed to do better. This year the Drake relays and the Pennsylvania are scheduled to meet the West. The West refused to bow to the East and the East refused to surrender its seniority. Both sides remained unchanged. Now the East claims the West is resorting to boycott in exacting a promise from Western schools not to enter Eastern meets. Ohio State, so far, is the only Midwest university that has entered the Pennsylvania relay, which bank, every year on a big Western representation. Western colleges also let it be known during the session that in the Eastern games not show more consideration in its actions it will refuse to send its football teams to the Eastern universities unless they enter into a home and home agreement.

Freedom & Emancipation
By: Nicholas Boston and Jennifer Hallam
page 1 | 2
Objections to slavery existed in the early colonial period. But opposition to slavery did not develop into an organized effort until the age of the Revolutionary War. As colonists demanded the rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness, they were forced to question and come to terms with the hypocrisy of slaveholding in their emergent free nation. Slaves also recognized the paradox of living in a country busy promoting fundamental rights while simultaneously holding blacks in bondage. Many of them used this moment of uncertainty to secure freedom. When the British forces called upon slaves to join their ranks and promised them freedom in return, black men enlisted. When the Colonial army made the same offer, black men joined their lines as well. Others, men and women, petitioned the courts for freedom, making their arguments on the same philosophical grounds that the patriots used to validate the war.

The Declaration of Independence not only declared the colonies free of Britain, but it also helped to inspire Vermont to abolish slavery in its 1777 state constitution. By 1804, all Northern states had voted to abolish the institution of slavery within their borders. In most of these states, however, abolition was not immediate. Instead, gradual emancipation laws set deadlines by which all slaves would be freed, releasing individuals as they reached a certain age or the end of a certain work period. This situation left some African Americans lingering in bonded servitude. Pennsylvania passed its Act for the Gradual Abolition of Slavery in 1780. Yet, as late as 1850, the federal census recorded that there were still hundreds of young blacks in Pennsylvania, who would remain enslaved until their 28th birthdays.
As they were emancipated in the first half of the nineteenth century, African Americans in the Northern states began to shape their lives as free people. They changed the names that had been given to them as slaves, they sought out educational opportunities, they founded institutions to provide for their spiritual and physical needs, and they formed communities that provided social support as well as the

opportunity for cultural growth. Moreover, many of these African Americans joined or established societies dedicated to freeing those blacks that remained enslaved in other parts of the country. Although the abolitionists, both black and white, were not directly responsible for ending the U.S. system of slavery, their support of the Underground Railroad helped thousands to escape to freedom and their vociferousness helped to define Northern attitudes toward slavery.
The clash between abolitionists in the North and slaveholders in the South was a contributing factor in the outbreak of the Civil War. Nevertheless, when fighting broke, President Lincoln insisted that the war's sole purpose was the preservation of the Union. In the early years of the war, Lincoln's actions with regard to slaves were motivated by military strategy and necessity.

In August 1861 he accepted the First Confiscation Act passed by Congress, which declared that slaves escaping to union lines would be considered contraband. Before the passage of this act, Union leaders had turned away blacks seeking to enlist and returned escapees seeking protection in the North to their Southern masters. Legally defined as contraband, and therefore subject to capture, thousands of slaves fleeing the South could now be put in the service of the Union army. The Second Confiscation Act, passed shortly after the first, gave the president the authority to recruit black men for the Union army. Although freedom was given to those who fought, it was considered a reward, not an intrinsic right.
In 1863, the nature of the Civil War shifted. On January 1st of that year, President Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation, freeing slaves in the Confederate states. The Proclamation applied neither to slaveholding border states that had remained loyal to the Union (Delaware, Kentucky, Maryland, and Missouri) nor to rebel states subdued by Union forces prior to its issuance. Nonetheless, its significance was profound. With the Emancipation Proclamation, the struggle between North and South transformed into a war to end slavery. Concurrent with the war's end in 1865, the thirteenth amendment to the U.S. Constitution was ratified. Slavery was declared illegal in every part of the newly restored Union. African-Americans across the nation were free.

Keith Ten Eyck
Born and raised in a small town in central Ohio, Keith grew up farming, hiking through the woods while also hustling poor decisions in the city amidst a throw-caution-to-the-wind era that seems forever ago.
Taking cues from other artistic family members, coupled with sheer boredom birthed from social ostracization due to belonging to a welfare family –Keith pursued art from an early age.
Increasingly frustrated with his cartoonish style, he eventually gave up
drawing as he fell in love with writing, playing music and skateboarding. Being in bands eventually lead to graphic design through band merchandising.
Now, an award-winning, internationally published multimedia designer,
his main passions are film making, writing and designing posters. | dclm_baseline | {'bff_contained_ngram_count_before_dedupe': '0', 'language_id_whole_page_fasttext': "{'en': 0.964572548866272}", 'metadata': "{'Content-Length': '50144', 'Content-Type': 'application/http; msgtype=response', 'WARC-Block-Digest': 'sha1:L3UH36IUEGV7Q4G4LPXMYQWZXD7DLMMN', 'WARC-Concurrent-To': '<urn:uuid:5d123f5d-2f4a-430b-80fa-1415e08c6409>', 'WARC-Date': datetime.datetime(2019, 3, 22, 20, 49, 27), 'WARC-IP-Address': '198.185.159.145', 'WARC-Identified-Payload-Type': 'text/html', 'WARC-Payload-Digest': 'sha1:ZADFQBCBID27DGAWVDBJ3YRH6PLP3IL7', 'WARC-Record-ID': '<urn:uuid:a846ff33-c9c4-49c4-aab5-49d151b5521b>', 'WARC-Target-URI': 'http://keithist.com/about-1/', 'WARC-Type': 'response', 'WARC-Warcinfo-ID': '<urn:uuid:fc312d26-d59e-4360-be22-849bdcde9ee6>', 'WARC-Truncated': None}", 'previous_word_count': '116', 'url': 'http://keithist.com/about-1/', 'warcinfo': 'isPartOf: CC-MAIN-2019-13\r\npublisher: Common Crawl\r\ndescription: Wide crawl of the web for March 2019\r\noperator: Common Crawl Admin (info@commoncrawl.org)\r\nhostname: ip-10-33-242-24.ec2.internal\r\nsoftware: Apache Nutch 1.15 (modified, https://github.com/commoncrawl/nutch/)\r\nrobots: checked via crawler-commons 0.11-SNAPSHOT (https://github.com/crawler-commons/crawler-commons)\r\nformat: WARC File Format 1.1\r\nconformsTo: http://iipc.github.io/warc-specifications/specifications/warc-format/warc-1.1/', 'fasttext_openhermes_reddit_eli5_vs_rw_v2_bigram_200k_train_prob': '0.10523319244384766', 'original_id': '76134d0fc7bbe92942691dd0a26e486ab9ec76dd9df4b35b0d12767215b73aca'} |

Has it really been three years since the first Avengers came out already? Considering the legacy its built for itself, it certainly doesn't feel like it. Ever since that teaser trailer dropped online featuring a creepy new rendition of Pinnochio's "I've Got No Strings", expectations for this film have been rather high. For those who've been living under a rock for the past few months, Avengers: Age of Ultron is the immensely-anticipated sequel to 2012's The Avengers, the eleventh instalment of Marvel's Cinematic Universe and the penultimate entry into their "Phase Two" of films. It's also the first big comicbook film of 2015, in what's set to be a fairly quiet year for the genre in comparison to the ones it sits between. The first Avengers may not have been particularly intricate or profound, but it could get away with its paper-thin plot and carefree nature because it was about payoff. It was a celebration. But now that the party's over, this film doesn't have the same excuses to fall back on. What can Age of Ultron do to warrant our attention? Considering that this will probably be the biggest film of 2015, let's hope the answer is something positive.
The Battle of New York has passed, and years later the Avengers are still fighting the good fight. While on a mission in the (fictional) European country of Sovokia, they retrieve the scepter of Thor's brother Loki, which contains a gem with supernatural powers. Shortly after returning to their headquarters, Tony Stark/Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr.) and Bruce Banner/the Hulk (Mark Ruffalo) discover an artificial intelligence within the gem. What starts out as just an unexpected discovery turns to great peril as the intelligence becomes sentient and takes over Stark's new global defence program, "Ultron". With a legion of robotic drones and the aid of the superhuman siblings Pietro (Aaron Taylor-Johnson) and Wanda Maximoff (Elizabeth Olsen), Ultron (James Spader) takes it upon himself to bring peace to the human race through the only path he believes in: their extinction.
One of the biggest things I can commend Whedon and co. for is for not following the usual Marvel route of making something that's nothing more than just a good time. While this is far from a dark movie by definition, this is Marvel's darkest outing yet. Some of the visions Wanda creates and puts our heroes into are downright chilling. It never crosses the line, but considering the usual bright, family-friendly nature of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, it's slightly surprising to see some of the things you do here. But even if some of it doesn't quite work, that same Whedon flavour of humour is very present (even if the laughs are never as big as they were three years ago), and while it's not quite as exciting the second time around, it's just great seeing the Avengers kick arse together again. Make no mistake, this is still generally a "fun" outing, but unlike a few other Marvel offerings, it doesn't feel like harmless filler to tide you over for two hours. The actions that take place here could affect the Marvel Cinematic Universe for years to come.
Between the more complex narrative, weightier themes, old and new characters and set-up for various future Marvel films, there is a lot going on in Age of Ultron. This means that the pace is quite rapid and the story tends to get muddled, but it's also somewhat of a miracle that it actually comes out feeling fairly coherent considering the massive amount of things being juggled here. It also thrusts quite a bit at the viewer that expects you to have seen most of the previous Marvel instalments, but you can still quickly grasp a basic understanding of these characters without having seen them all.
The action isn't exactly Man of Steel/Avengers 1 levels of awesome, but it's still as great as you would expect. The much-anticipated Hulkbuster fight is without a doubt one of the best action scenes we'll be seeing this year, and there's a slight emphasis on more teamwork this time around. For example, Captain America chucks his shield into the air, Thor slams it with his hammer, it goes flying into a horde of bad guys and nerds squeal. However, it's decidedly underwhelming to see the climax be made up of two overly-familiar Marvel tropes: endless waves of nameless enemies and yet another airborne threat to a city - for the fifth time, if my memory serves me correctly. Age of Ultron is also somehow even more action-heavy than its predecessor (guess Whedon's plans to go smaller and more personal didn't exactly work out. Studio pressure, maybe?). The climax we have here is one big, long and action setpiece that gets a just a tiny bit wearisome after a while, although it's rounded off fantasically. It also looks expensive. Really, really expensive. Seriously, look at the budget on this thing.
But surprisingly, some of the moments that shine the most in Age of Ultron are the quieter ones. Some character relationships take some fairly unexpected turns and an interval at a safehouse allows for certain ideologies to be explored and gives our heroes a stronger emotional centre than there ever was in the first film. Those who felt that Hawkeye (Jeremy Renner) barely existed in the first entry will also find much to love here. As a character who's been largely restricted to these films as opposed to having his own solo outings, the progression he experiences as a character is great to see.
Speaking of characters, the cast of this film is enormous. There's an abundance of cameos/extended cameos from other sides of the Marvel Universe that are nice to see, even if they do slightly contribute to the film's aforementioned crowded nature. There are also quite a few newcomers, including the aforementioned Pietro and Wanda Maximoff. Considering their usual heritage as heroes Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch respectively, it's no spoiler to say that they don't remain on the bad side for long. Quicksilver barely has a presence here, quite possibly due to Marvel unwilling to give him the spotlight when a rights issue has allowed the character to be utilised simultaneously in Fox's X-Men films. Scarlet Witch on the other hand is a very welcome new addition, as she arguably has the most appealing set of powers on the team, and goes through a fairly unexpected character arc that leads to one of the best scenes in the movie.
The third most significant newcomer to the team is Paul Bettanny as The Vision, who is fantastic, but the less said about him, the better. Just know that you won't be forgetting about him any time soon, and it's not because he has the colour scheme of a watermelon. I'd even argue that Scarlet Witch and The Vision are the coolest members on the team right now, at least until Spider-Man comes along and takes his rightful place.
But Ultron is the big cheese here. Since it's no secret that Marvel's cinematic villains have generally been quite lacking, and Ultron is a character largely unknown to the public, we cannot be allowed to say the same about this character. Thankfully, Ultron is one of Marvel's biggest successes in this regard (even if that isn't saying much). He's surprisingly human and James Spader's incredible voicework gives him more presence and character than any Marvel villain before him. But he's also never 100 percent convincing as a CGI creation, his relationship with Tony doesn't have any kind of payoff, and most importantly, the logic and motivations behind his plan are barely ever explored. He clearly has a deep hatred of the Avengers - particularly Stark - but why? What makes him feel so strongly about this when he seemingly gained consciousness and deemed them all scum of the earth in a matter of seconds? Was this cut and saved for the upcoming extended edition on Blu-Ray? If so, such a basic and essential aspect shouldn't have been left on the cutting room floor regardless. Without it, Ultron is a solid villain, but it's all due to his style and not his substance.
It has to be said that Age of Ultron is quite a flawed film. Continuity is apparently immaterial here: Tony's apparent retirement during the resolution of Iron Man 3 is literally never brought up. Sure, it was a stupid move to make in the first place but that's no excuse to ignore it completely. There was also certain content shown to us through trailers that made me wonder if Age of Ultron would be repeating certain elements from its predecessor, and it certainly does. There's the aforementioned familiar climax against an army of disposable enemies, the dull convenience of mind control is once again used to move things along when it should never have been in the first film, and our villain resorts to those "tear them apart from the inside" tactics that we know so well. In fact, Age of Ultron as a whole is a bit overfamiliar. It feels slightly more ambitious than the first but at the end of the day it's all the same song and dance, really. If that's what you're looking for, you're set, but those looking for something a tad more profound will only find that in fairly small doses here.
With that being said, Age of Ultron is far from a bad film. I'm sure others will be harder on it than I was, and it may not meet the skyhigh expectations some fanboys undoubtedly have. But there's some truly great stuff in here, and definitely enough to warrant its price tag even if its negatives are a little more complicated than its positives. But now that this behemoth is finally out of the way, what will Marvel do next? What brave, valiant hero will be next to step up after this massive juggernaut of a blockbuster?
What's that?

The amazing thing about Cory Schneider’s career is the lack of valleys along the way. You can’t point to a grouping of ten games in a row where Schneider’s performance has been substandard except for right at the start of his career.
I’ve organized a chart looking at Schneider’s career save percentage cumulative and from a rolling 10-game average. After the jump…
What struck me as odd is that this looks like a major junior goaltender. A good CHL goaltender will have a tough couple of years as a backup as a 16- or 17-year old, develop into an average starter by 18, and then have a great percentage in his 19-year-old campaign.
I looked at junior goalie Laurent Brossoit earlier in the season over at Buzzing the Net. Brossoit is a good example of this mould of goaltender, who posts a progressively better save percentage each season as he grows, learns the position as it relates to the league, and lets his talent take over. He’s currently in the middle of a playoff run with the Edmonton Oil Kings, on a collision course with the Kamloops Blazers for Western Hockey League superiority.
But it’s not necessarily a thing at the NHL-level. Steve Mason, for instance, was a pretty good junior goaltender who won a Calder Trophy after having an incredible first half of his rookie season. Since those first 40 games or so, he’s fallen off the map and re-surfaced in Philadelphia, a franchise known for making intelligent, data-driven decisions, particularly when it comes to goaltenders.
I think what’s scary about Schneider isn’t that his rolling 10-game save percentage is .958, it’s that .958 isn’t the highest 10-game segment in his career to date. After a .959 between Games 63-72 in his career, he wound up with a .928 in Games 73-82.
Advertisement - Continue Reading Below
The lowest 10-game segment of his career since the modest beginnings are Games 77-86, which began 1/19/2013 against Anaheim and ended 2/26/2013 against Phoenix. On, uh, 3/6/2013, I wrote a theory that the Canucks problems lay in goal, that they were playing the wrong goaltender and looking to trade the wrong goaltender.
Since then, Canucks goaltending has been excellent and the team has been winning.
Schneider’s a weird goalie to analyze. He’s played behind a pretty good PK for his career so his overall save percentage numbers work out to be a little higher than what you might expect from his even strength numbers (here’s a good bit on how the team influences save rates on the penalty kill). Eric T. has also looked at it from a predictive standpoint and noted that “until the goalie has about 150-175 starts, the two measures perform almost identically in predicting a goalie’s future—it doesn’t matter whether you use career SV% or career EV SV% early in his career.”
100 games isn’t enough, also, to determine whether Schneider will continue to grow at this rate. You need about 200 starts to really make the call, but the Canucks aren’t working with that kind of time, so there’s a bit of a gamble in going with Schneider.
Switching gears now, there’s only one goaltender who is on a similar career trajectory as Schneider as far as games played and shots faced. That would be Toronto’s James Reimer, a goaltender who is better than his surface numbers indicate because he’s played behind a god-awful penalty kill for his first two league seasons. His EV SV% has been near the top of the league since he showed up in the winter of 2011.

Look at Schneider’s 10-Game line in comparison to Reimer’s:
There isn’t too much different. Adjust that for Schneider’s great PK SV% and Reimer’s poor PK SV% and the lines act more in concert, except for a brief spell between Games 55-70 when Schneider was putting up league-high PK SV% numbers and Reimer was playing with a concussion.
There’s also the reality that Reimer isn’t on a hot streak like Schneider that’s bringing up his overall number. I do find it quite funny that there’s so much talk of Luongo’s natural destination being Toronto when we really know, from the data, about as much as Schneider as we do Reimer.
Anyway, here’s a look at some other goaltenders who finished a season before Age 26, with a similar number games played and shots against as Schneider, and how they performed in the future. Save % 1 is the early segment of their careers, and Save % 2 is everything since:
Save % 1 Shots Faced Save % 2 Shots Faced Josh Harding 0.915 2050 0.916 1042 Patrick Lalime 0.911 2474 0.901 7730 Mike Smith 0.910 2641 0.915 4568 Antero Niittymaki 0.896 2910 0.907 3689 Sebastien Caron 0.892 2684 0.877 57
Hockey Reference unfortunately can’t break things out by mid-season. Sebastien Caron hardly counts since he was below replacement-level coming in and has faced 57 shots since. Josh Harding is the same. Antero Niittymaki and Mike Smith regressed upwards while Patrick Lalime trended downwards.
Lalime’s even strength numbers are actually similar to both Reimer’s and Schneider’s when you adjust for league average after his first two seasons as a starter, and he was the only one in this group who was a starter, so…
Point is, goaltending is voodoo and tough to predict. Schneider appears to continually improve. Bold prediction: Probably, he’ll eventually fall back to earth and it will be during that sequence that Alain Vigneault loses his job.

Man charged in police-involved shooting on South Side
Police investigating the smell of marijuana smoke ended up shooting a man they chased down a South Side alley after he refused a command to drop his gun, authorities said.
The suspect, Donte J. Kenney, 26, remained at Advocate Christ Medical Center on Sunday, but has been charged with aggravated assault of a peace officer and unlawful use of a weapon by a felon, according to court documents.
Police saw Kenney standing at the mouth of an alley on 86th Street just east of Rhodes Avenue in the Chatham neighborhood and tried to stop him about 1 a.m. Saturday because they smelled marijuana, according to Assistant State’s Attorney Stephanie Buck and Fraternal Order of Police spokesman Patrick Camden.
Kenney, of the 7900 block of South Stewart Avenue, took off north in the alley holding his side, and one officer jumped out of the police car and chased him, according to Camden, Buck and court documents. The other officer tracked the chase north on Rhodes in his car.
Kenney ran into a gangway, Buck said Sunday, and the officer who had been driving got out of the car to chase him. | mini_pile | {'original_id': '1ca1a3d1fadba5a7f2093589ad23096bc586dadb558bcef829856d4e830acdce'} |

A Proposal has a very clear and singular purpose, of convincing the reader of that which is proposed. Hence it is a species of persuasive writing, tailored toward recruiting support for the plan it lays out. As such, a proposal needs to be compelling and cogent, capturing the reader’s attention and then holding it with a logically ordered and lucidly expressed argument. Now, by “argument”, we are not referring to some sort of disagreement or dispute but, rather, the philosophical meaning of the term, of using processes of reasoning to convince people of a certain position. It does not matter if your Proposal is intended for financial, technical, educational, training, research, or other purposes, the fundamentals of persuasive writing are the same. It is essential one understand these principles if hoping to author a successful Proposal. Firstly, a good Proposal needs to be extremely focused. Necessarily, it will be targeted to a specific readership and written with a clear understanding of their expectations and how to meet them. So, for example, a research proposal for a thesis would be written specifically for a specialist in the relevant field, an academic. With this knowledge in mind, one would accordingly seek to identify a research question which is interesting, relevant and rich enough to sustain extended scholarly inquiry. Next, one would want to formulate this question in the most compelling fashion, such as illuminates the key points at issue and does so in a stimulating way (academia has no want of dry or excessively convoluted theses). After this, you would go on to explain why your approach to the topic is the best to take, by explaining the benefit for the reader, what is to be gained. This last is absolutely crucial. Your Proposal will stand or fall on the advantages it can deliver. Your task, then, is to persuade the reader of these advantages and, furthermore, that you are the person to deliver them.
In an academic context, the advantage for the reader would likely be in some of form of meaningful contribution to the discipline; but all other types of Proposal would essentially come down to the same simple formula of establishing advantage for the reader. Such advantage needs to be explained precisely. Your Proposal should outline why following your plan represents a distinct boon for the readership, and do so tersely. You are courting advocacy for an exact line of action; you do not need to waste time on long-winded prose. Get straight to the point, highlight the benefits, clarifying how and why following your Proposal will deliver them. This might involves graphs and charts, bullet points, diagrams, or other visual aids; the goal is to ensure the reader is not left in any confusion. Keep your sentences short and snappy. Be ruthless with your prose. Anything that can be cut without altering the Proposal’s meaning should be cut. Hone your Proposal to the essentials and it will be more likely to succeed.

4 Science-Backed Reasons You Need More Alone Time
You might not want to take a break from life, but your brain does. Every day, your brain is overloaded with the sights and sounds of the modern world. It barely gets a chance to digest all this information.
Our constant state of mental overload is bad for brain health, but the solution is pretty simple: you need to spend some time alone. We all do. Regular time alone in peace and quiet can help your brain work better. So do your brain a favor, and take a break.
Here are four ways time alone can help you.
You’ll improve your emotional intelligence
Emotional intelligence is your ability to recognize, express, and control your feelings. Often thought of simply as self-awareness, emotional intelligence is all about knowing how you feel and why.
It’s extremely important for personal development, and improving your emotional intelligence can help you in pretty much every area of your life. High emotional intelligence can make it easier to manage personal hardship, develop interpersonal relationships, communicate better, and deal with issues like stress and anxiety.
Spending time alone is scientifically proven to be one of the best ways to improve your emotional intelligence. However, just being alone isn’t enough; you need to set aside some of your alone time for quiet contemplation – ideally in complete silence.
The general explanation for this is fairly straight-forward: by turning down the volume of external stimuli, you’ll be able to hear what’s going on inside your own head. By paying better attention to your own internal dialogue, you improve your emotional intelligence and become a more resilient person.
Your brain will grow
A little piece and quiet might help your gray matter. That’s according to this study from the National Library of Medicine, which found exposure to prolonged silence can stimulate the brain to grow new cells.
However, some quiet time won’t just make your brain grow; it’ll also make it work harder. This UCLA study found that time alone can help the brain boost its ability to process information.
Specifically, it looked at volunteers who meditated regularly and compared them to a control group. In particular, the researchers compared the rates of cortical folding. This is a process by which the cerebral cortex “undergoes changes to create narrow furrows and folds called sulci and gyri.”
“Their formation may promote and enhance neural processing,” the researchers explained.
They continued, “Presumably then, the more folding that occurs, the better the brain is at processing information, making decisions, forming memories and so forth.”
While the researchers noted their study was far from conclusive, they argued it provided strong evidence to suggest spending time alone in contemplation can help you absorb new information quicker, improve your memory, and make it easier to make rational decisions.
Your memory will improve
Improving your memory is a walk in the park – literally. According to University of Illinois’ neuroscience expert Professor Arthur Kramer, taking a walk alone a few times a week can help grow your hippocampus.
“The hippocampus supports an important aspect of memory called episodic or relational memory,” he explained in an interview with NPR.
“An example would be meeting somebody at a party and trying to remember their name, their face, what you talked about and so forth, the hippocampus plays an important role in that,” he said.
Kramer continued by explaining that as the brain ages, the hippocampus becomes weaker, leading to memory problems like Alzheimer’s.
“The hippocampus is one of the few areas of the brain that produces new neurons from adult stem cells, supergenitor cells. So neural genesis, or the birth of new neurons that become functionally integrated with old neurons, occurs in the hippocampus,” he explained.
This means that keeping the hippocampus healthy is extremely important for adults, particularly when heading into middle age.
Luckily, it turns out that keeping your hippocampus in good working order isn’t as hard as it sounds. According to research by Kramer, a 40-minute walk, three times a week is enough to keep your hippocampus growing. This can improve your memory, and keep your brain young.
You’ll be able to solve more problems
Ever had one of those problems you can’t seem to work through? Perhaps something at work, or just some stubborn everyday conundrum? The best thing you can do is forget about it, according to psychologist and author Sherrie Bourg Carter. “Solitude allows you to reboot your brain and unwind,” she explained.
This process allows your brain to take a break from being bombarded with new information, and instead work through the mass of knowledge it already possesses. By giving your brain this break time, you might find yourself making connections you wouldn’t have noticed otherwise. In quiet, your powerful subconscious mind can do its job correctly, and help you solve those niggling problems.
Unfortunately, in our modern society, the peace and quiet our brains need to function isn’t always so easily found. It’s too easy to get distracted by a phone or TV, omnipresent advertising and those endless to-do lists. The complexity of modern life isn’t always so kind to our over-worked brains.
“It’s hard to think of effective solutions to problems when you’re distracted by incoming information, regardless of whether that information is electronic or human,” Bourg Carter noted.
How much time do you spend alone, and how does it benefit you?

Why Prince Harry Talking About Mental Health is So Important
Prince Harry has hit the headlines quite a few times in his life - and not always for the best reasons. But a week or so ago he made the news again by finally opening up about his struggle with depression following the death of his mother, Princess Diana, 20 years ago.
Harry has always been my favourite Royal because, as well as being the same age as me, he seems like such a normal, down to earth bloke. Something as tragic as losing your mother at the age of 12 is bound to have an effect on a person's mental health - especially when they're then not allowed any privacy to grieve and have to come to terms with their loss in front of the entire world.
(Before I go any further, I just want to say that writing this post is making me feel quite uncomfortable because, even though Harry himself is extremely unlikely to see it and I'm saying something nice, I'm very aware that I'm writing about a real person, with real feelings. I'd never make a tabloid journalist, would I?)
When Harry admitted that he had suffered from depression, some people were shocked, others were understanding while some rolled their eyes and wondered how a young man from such a privileged background could claim to be 'depressed' when he has so much going for him. But I think his decision to speak out was so important because it shows that depression doesn't discriminate and mental illness can affect anyone, whether you're a prince or a postman (nothing against postmen btw; my dad is one).
He has always hated the media attention surrounding him and, while some people would argue that it's part and parcel of being a public figure, I would argue that he didn't choose to be a public figure - he was born as one. It's not like he went on Big Brother or Britain's Got Talent in the hope of becoming famous. Everything that has happened to him has been by circumstance. He was born in the public eye, lost his mother in the public eye and had to grow up in the public eye, being photographed falling out of nightclubs in his teens and early twenties (which I'm sure we all did, however we didn't end up on the front page of The Sun for doing so). I think, under these circumstances, some mental health issues are pretty much inevitable.
(What is this obsession with wanting to know every single little detail about famous people's lives, anyway? We should be concentrating on our own and not comparing them to other people's. But I digress...)
People like Princes Harry and William, as well as celebrities such as Lady Gaga and Zoella, being open and honest about their mental health is helping to remove some of the stigma surrounding these issues. It's much more acceptable now to admit you're suffering than it was even 10 years ago, and that can only be a good thing.
May 2017 is Mental Health Month so if a condition such as depression or anxiety has been affecting you, now is the perfect time to reach out to someone you trust and ask for help.
What are your thoughts on this? Let me know in the comments.

(1976) *** 1/2 Pg
119 min. United Artists. Director: John Avildsen. Cast: Sylvester Stallone, Burt Young, Joe Frazier, Lloyd Kaufman, Talia Shire.
/content/films/4055/1.jpgBy now, the tale has been often told: an underdog languishes for a seeming eternity, before seeing his shot and taking it—against all odds, he succeeds. It's the story of Rocky Balboa, the Philadelphia stumblebum wasting his life away as a loan shark's muscle whose unfulfilled dream of being a world-class boxer unexpectedly comes true. As most people know, it's also the story of Sylvester Stallone, an actor who couldn't get fired who wrote a red-hot script called Rocky and refused to sell it for hundreds of thousands of dollars, insisting instead that he play the lead for scale. Stallone's gamble paid off, unlocking a career of movie stardom and multiple opportunities to write and direct his own films.
For everything else that's come down the road, nothing has been better to Stallone than his baby, Rocky, which spawned a grand total of five sequels. The original film—directed by John G. Avildsen (who won the Oscar for his trouble)—sets the standard all others will follow. Beside the indelible character of Rocky, we meet his grizzled coach Mickey Goldmill (the beloved Burgess Meredith), undisputed World Heavyweight Champion Apollo Creed (Carl Weathers), Rocky's neighborhood friend Paulie (Burt Young), and Paulie's younger sister, beautiful but painfully shy pet-shop worker Adrian Peninno (Talia Shire). Adrian keeps her light under a bushel, but Rocky escorts her out into the open in a sweet romance that gives the film an extra helping of heart.
It's all here: the famous Bill Conti fanfare, the "Gonna Fly Now" training montage, the inevitable "David and Goliath" climax. The movie's primal populism tapped the zeitgeist and went all the way to the top of the box office charts and the Oscars, winning Best Picture (in a coup that has long left angry cineastes complaining, since Rocky beat out Bound for Glory, All the President's Men, Network and Taxi Driver). Of course, where there's money and success, there is franchising, and the sequels didn't take long to follow. But return visitors to Rocky may be surprised to discover that it's not all boxing-picture hooey: yes, it's mostly boxing-picture hooey, but between the film's two fight sequences is a character-driven urban drama that's more Saturday Night Fever than, say, Rocky V.

Aspect ratios: 1.85:1
Number of discs: 1
Audio: DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1, Dolby Digital Mono
Street date: 5/10/2011
Distributor: 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment
MGM's Digibook release of Rocky doesn't anything new to offer, other than the glossy 25-page Digibook, with essays, production stills, cast bios, quotes and trivia. Beyond that, it's the same Blu-ray released in 2006 and repurposed as the first, bare-bones disc in the 2008 Undisputed Collection set. The video presentation is mediocre, though certainly a step up from DVD: film grain hasn't been scrubbed away, which is nice, but color calibration isn't convincingly true to form, and the overall results can be a bit soft and a bit hazy in the shadows. The DTS-HD Master Audio mix likewise fails to dazzle, but gets the job done: the source materials sound their age and, while effects have been given some separation, the overall impression is rather narrow in terms of dynamics.

Biz~ thread pool may be created and maintained by business itself, most of which may be managed by system framework itself (for example, a web system runs under Tomcat container, Biz~ thread is maintained by Tomcat); IO~ stands for network data processing thread, which is created and maintained by IO framework (such as Netty, Grizzly). Dubbo Remoting’s default Netty implementation is NioEventloopLoopGroup. In addition, according to the binding relationship between Channel and IO thread, IO~ can also be regarded as an acceptable Channel for event messages. Asynchronous processing stages such as Biz and IO are abstractly described in JDK8 as completionstages.</p></li><li><p>As we all know, the way of data communication between threads is shared variables. The data communication between Biz and IO is Queue. Specifically to Dubbo, Biz put a task in EventLoop’s LinkedBlockingQueue in the client side implementation (i.e. the steps labeled in Figure 1 above), and the corresponding Thread in the EventLoop will keep iteration the Queue to keep on executing the information the task contains. Specific code can refer to SingleThreadEventExecutor (by the way, the default is to use in the Netty is capacity-free LinkedBlockingQueue, when the Biz processing rate higher than the rate of network, there seems to be a Memory Leak risk).</p></li><li><p>As shown in the figure above, a standard RPC call passes through four message (event) transfers of 1,2,3,4, respectively are the client business thread sending requests to the client IO thread, the server business logic thread receiving the server IO thread requests, the server logic thread responding to the server IO thread after processing, and the client IO thread receiving the results feedback to the business logic thread.</p></li></ol><h2 id=client-asynchronization>Client Asynchronization</h2><h3 id=background>Background</h3><p>In the Java language (other languages are not clear), a call of the local interface can be transparently converted into the call of remote RPC through the proxy mechanism. Most business parties prefer this programming method similar to the local interface to do remote service invocation. Therefore, although RPC is naturally asynchronous internally, users using Dubbo mostly use synchronization, while asynchrony becomes a minority use scenario. The advantage of synchronization is that the programming model is more in line with the “traditional” habits of the business side. The cost is that the current Biz~threads need to be blocked after the request event represented by 1 in the figure, and can not be awakened until the response processing represented by 4. In the process of 1,2,3,4, which is short in microsecond level and long in second level, the Biz~ thread will be blocked, which will consume thread resources and increase the overhead of system resources.</p><p>Therefore, the motivation of client asynchronization is to save thread resource overhead at the cost of understanding how asynchronization is used. In the synchronous mode, the return type of API interface represents a certain business class, while in the asynchronous case, the response and the request are completely independent events, so it is most suitable for the return type of API interface to be CompletionStage mentioned above, which is the inevitable asynchronization supported by Dubbo on asynchronization.

Another use for dual-core phone chips: Awesome photos
Multi-core chips in smartphones don’t just make the handsets faster; they bring useful new features that couldn’t easily exist without the extra processing power. Take the simple and fairly ubiquitous example of snapping a picture, for example. Faster mobile chips can turn the experience from a “point, shoot, and hope you got a good shot” into a smarter snap that nearly guarantees the perfect picture. Earlier this month at Qualcomm’s (s qcom) Uplinq conference, Scalado showed off its software that does just that, when paired with an advanced smartphone chip.
This video demonstration from the Android And Me enthusiast site illustrates how Scalado’s software, known as Rewind, works for group shots. Instead of hoping that everyone is wide-eyed and smiling when tapping the shutter button, the software uses a burst mode to capture five successive images in quick succession. To do this, a peppy processor is needed for the fast image capture. Once the picture is taken, the software uses facial recognition to zero in on each member of the group; tapping a face in the picture creates a circular control around the person’s image. A turn of the circle scrolls through all five images of the group member’s face so the best one can be chosen and seamlessly stitched into the final image.
Scalado’s solution applies to standard photos as well because no matter how fast you tap the shutter button on your smartphone’s camera, you don’t always get the perfect shot. Using a similar burst mode concept, Scalado’s app can take two images before you press the shutter button as it can constantly monitor images when the camera app is running. Tapping the shutter snaps the prior two image scans, the one during the button press and two more immediately after that, offering five image captures of the scene to choose from and save.
Since the software requires an advanced mobile phone processor and can enhance native camera functionality, Scalado is looking at handset makers to implement its camera solution. That means it’s likely to be an included feature on a smartphone, not a camera application that consumers can buy as a separate mobile application. Given that, the company has partnered with Qualcomm, I’d expect the software to first appear on handsets from HTC and HP (s hpq) as both companies power their current and upcoming smartphones with Qualcomm Snapdragon chips.
One Response to “Another use for dual-core phone chips: Awesome photos”
1. Sony Ericsson had the burst mode feature which took 4 photos before and 4 after the shutter depression with it’s BestPic mode that started on the K800. But the stitching software on the phone is what makes this one better for sure. | dclm_baseline | {'bff_contained_ngram_count_before_dedupe': '0', 'language_id_whole_page_fasttext': "{'en': 0.9181443452835084}", 'metadata': "{'Content-Length': '90468', 'Content-Type': 'application/http; msgtype=response', 'WARC-Block-Digest': 'sha1:BQ2WHNTWOPAJ5T46VOXMTM6RPGUGFIQA', 'WARC-Concurrent-To': '<urn:uuid:7920e7f9-fc14-4e1b-8080-6c4a67828569>', 'WARC-Date': datetime.datetime(2019, 3, 18, 20, 31, 40), 'WARC-IP-Address': '52.5.58.83', 'WARC-Identified-Payload-Type': 'text/html', 'WARC-Payload-Digest': 'sha1:OP5ZKYW4EH4WPPK7UOOWJNYCNQ566TFJ', 'WARC-Record-ID': '<urn:uuid:c48084cd-8a6c-464c-ad27-1f5139449bc5>', 'WARC-Target-URI': 'https://gigaom.com/2011/06/13/another-use-for-dual-core-phone-chips-awesome-photos/', 'WARC-Type': 'response', 'WARC-Warcinfo-ID': '<urn:uuid:6579eb3e-2d58-49b1-9c5e-0cd8629c9e09>', 'WARC-Truncated': None}", 'previous_word_count': '453', 'url': 'https://gigaom.com/2011/06/13/another-use-for-dual-core-phone-chips-awesome-photos/', 'warcinfo': 'isPartOf: CC-MAIN-2019-13\r\npublisher: Common Crawl\r\ndescription: Wide crawl of the web for March 2019\r\noperator: Common Crawl Admin (info@commoncrawl.org)\r\nhostname: ip-10-63-100-22.ec2.internal\r\nsoftware: Apache Nutch 1.15 (modified, https://github.com/commoncrawl/nutch/)\r\nrobots: checked via crawler-commons 0.11-SNAPSHOT (https://github.com/crawler-commons/crawler-commons)\r\nformat: WARC File Format 1.1\r\nconformsTo: http://iipc.github.io/warc-specifications/specifications/warc-format/warc-1.1/', 'fasttext_openhermes_reddit_eli5_vs_rw_v2_bigram_200k_train_prob': '0.03113412857055664', 'original_id': 'd4e39831ffde1a62a6f3837ec09759abcb063eebb20524d8b49e4481b89cc453'} |
How Does Satellite Internet Work?
Home Internet Cambridge
In the urban areas, fiber optic, cable and DSL Internet services are the most prevalent. However, when you go to the remote areas away from the urban centres, these cables are not available. Most Internet providers have not yet connected the rural residents to their cable networks. As a result, the only solution the rural residents have is that of relying on wireless networks. Satellite Internet is another option that is available in the rural areas.
satellite Internet
How does Satellite Internet Work?
As you may have guessed, the main piece of equipment in satellite Internet is the satellite. The satellite is in a geostationary orbit about 23,000 miles above the equator. You will be provided with a dish which receives the signals from the satellite and transfers that signal to your router in your home or office. The router then feeds the computer and other devices.
Why go for the Satellite Internet?
The main reason why satellite Internet is a viable option is when there are no terrestrial or any ground-based Internet services. Although it is possible to negotiate with the Internet providers to build a connection to your residence, the cost is often too great and Internet providers choose not to consider the option. At times laying down the new cable lines is impractical.
Satellite-based Internet is much easier to install in remote areas. A technician will mount the satellite dish on your home, align it to the satellite and then connect the dish to your router. You will be set within a few hours.
Although dial-up Internet service is available, the slowest satellite Internet connection is much faster than the dial-ups. With a dial-up, streaming videos and playing online games will be hectic and might not even work. Satellite mitigates this issue.
The cost of satellite Internet is high when compared to the cost of cable and dial-up Internet connections. Talk to Internet providers Ontario to know what you will be getting with the package.

Technical Limitations of the Satellite Internet
The main drawback of satellite Internet is that your ISP will limit the amount of data that you can use per month. Latency is another limitation. This is caused by the distance between the servers on the ground, the satellite, and your computer. You have to keep in mind that the signal sent from your computer has to travel 23,000 miles to the satellite and then an additional 23,000 miles down to the servers on the ground. Although this transmission is super quick, you will notice some delay when using satellite Internet.
The latency problem is more noticeable when playing network games such as Call of Duty. When browsing the Internet, you will notice this issue when it takes time for your browser to respond once you click on a link. All in all, the delays are not very significant. Bad weather can also make the connection worse.
Now that you understand how satellite Internet works, you can go ahead and pick the option that is right for you. The most important thing you need to do regardless of the service you choose to use is to select a reliable Internet service provider.

1765 Thomas Pitts Silver Epergne
Value (2013) | $15,000 Auction$50,000 Insurance
This was a gift to me from my godmother, who bought it on a trip that she made driving me to college. In those days, we took trunkloads of clothes and my mom and dad didn't have a station wagon, so the next-door neighbors, who were my adopted godparents, said, "Well, come on, we'll drive you." And after dropping me off, they went to Charleston, South Carolina, for a visit and they ended up buying this. And then when she was older, she gave it to me so that I could enjoy it while I was young enough to entertain.
Well, that was awfully nice. Do you ever serve any food on it or serve anything on it?
No, I've just used it for flowers.
Well, the original purpose of an èpergne was to be the centerpiece of a dessert service during what they called service à la française. As opposed to what you see on Downton Abbey today, which is called service à la russe, where you have lots of servants serving the individual dishes and taking things away. In service à la française, the people sat around the dinner table and they served themselves, and selected a piece of sugar candied fruit or some sort of delicacy from it. Every single piece of English silver had to be hallmarked with a series of marks. You have a mark for the lion passant, which means that it is English and sterling silver. You have the mark of the leopard's head crowned, which means it was made during the reign of King George III. And then the date letter, which is this Old English-style K within a shield, and that's specific to the year 1765. And the maker's mark of the initials is... the man's name is Thomas Pitts. But what's interesting about it too is that as you see, it has fruit on it. All of the decoration is fruits, which indicates the purpose that it was intended was to serve fruit in a centerpiece. If this were to come up for auction today, I would expect a presale estimate to be $15,000 to $25,000. Now, if it were to be in a retail shop, you might expect to see at least twice that, between $30,000 and $50,000 for replacement value.
Oh. My goodness, that's a surprise.

Self-Criticism (1)
"Some of the songs in this book... cannot be sung" — Charles Ives, "Postface to 114 Songs".
Not writing enough (i.e. almost no) songs. Why? A terrific fear of words (sounds, meanings of words, appropriate scansion, emphasis) and not being, myself, a singer. The last, in part, due to the highly gendered ideas about singing (i.e. boys don't, except rock stars) with which I grew up. But still no excuse.
The still-precocious Mr. Muhly has a useful handle on songs (here, amid sensational footage), focusing rightly on their plasticity & transportability (qualities common with currency — are songs the currency of dreamers?), their ability to survive intact in alternative arrangements. (All Along the Watchtower, anyone?) But still, the term "setting" is unnerving, as if one is taking words and putting them someplace so that they don't run away. You see, I want words, like sounds, to run away, to go to all the places they can take us, and fixing them to tunes can often tie them down to one meaning rather than another, making an uneasy balance of gains and losses. Perhaps that's why the best songs are seldom settings of the best poems: the loss of textual ambiguity is made up for in the added value of the music, which might even add ambiguity of its own (are there better examples than Schumann's In Wunderschönen Monat Mai and Ives's The River?).
Maybe the key is avoiding falling in love with a text. The more I read of the Georgics, for example, Virgil's incredible didactic poem about fields and groves and cattle and wine and honeybees and nymphs and gods and Orpheus and everything and everyone else, the greater my trepidation of committing to one aspect and not others and of tearing into the poem with the brutality necessary to make a song. I don't know a piece of music which contains as much of this world as this poem does, and I don't know that a piece of music can even have that ambition. And as much as I want to share my enthusiasm for these words, and am willing to be musically ambitous about it, the injury of the necessary excerpt is increasingly hard to accept. Composers: love words, but not too much!
Paul H. Muller said...
Music for the church simplifies things for the composer. Music there serves the scriptural texts so it is a bit more straightforward to get a direction. The words come as a relief to the composer, who can at least try to infuse the right emotion to the text.
I have always been thankful that my understanding of the passion story of Christ has been informed by the music of Bach rather than the movie by Mel Gibson.
Charles Shere said...
You reminded me of a passage I read a few days ago (see Song should be artless and spontaneous. | dclm_baseline | {'bff_contained_ngram_count_before_dedupe': '0', 'language_id_whole_page_fasttext': "{'en': 0.954224407672882}", 'metadata': "{'Content-Length': '130715', 'Content-Type': 'application/http; msgtype=response', 'WARC-Block-Digest': 'sha1:DOTPQ75WERFDUIF3QTJSFOQV6V2S7UKO', 'WARC-Concurrent-To': '<urn:uuid:c3aaaf68-f080-4225-a5da-bf149a958134>', 'WARC-Date': datetime.datetime(2014, 10, 30, 18, 9, 51), 'WARC-IP-Address': '74.125.228.43', 'WARC-Identified-Payload-Type': None, 'WARC-Payload-Digest': 'sha1:EJOFWDLIJHL3LLMFFSQKJO7UNMEK7A5L', 'WARC-Record-ID': '<urn:uuid:75ef873e-01fa-47a2-989b-ac79b2b0129a>', 'WARC-Target-URI': 'http://renewablemusic.blogspot.com/2009/02/self-criticism-1.html', 'WARC-Type': 'response', 'WARC-Warcinfo-ID': '<urn:uuid:765d46fd-f83d-4084-9b6a-b5dec847188c>', 'WARC-Truncated': 'length'}", 'previous_word_count': '464', 'url': 'http://renewablemusic.blogspot.com/2009/02/self-criticism-1.html', 'warcinfo': 'robots: classic\r\nhostname: ip-10-16-133-185.ec2.internal\r\nsoftware: Nutch 1.6 (CC)/CC WarcExport 1.0\r\nisPartOf: CC-MAIN-2014-42\r\noperator: CommonCrawl Admin\r\ndescription: Wide crawl of the web with URLs provided by Blekko for October 2014\r\npublisher: CommonCrawl\r\nformat: WARC File Format 1.0\r\nconformsTo: http://bibnum.bnf.fr/WARC/WARC_ISO_28500_version1_latestdraft.pdf', 'fasttext_openhermes_reddit_eli5_vs_rw_v2_bigram_200k_train_prob': '0.07483458518981934', 'original_id': '34b3aba232b369ca3103465c22c047e1cc168f0cf37c8fc5f79b6222ffcf6e8b'} |
Retrieving the path
The question is now, how to retrieve the path
and not err another thousand years away from your hearth
you were but a child when you had left the place
and now you’re lost in the midst of forests unfamiliar to your eyes
walk one step after another, carefully, listening to all the voices
of the landscape around you, and trying to determine which one
resonates with the deepest part of yourself
once you have found that voice, follow her no matter what
sometimes she will grow very weak, and you’ll come to a stop
perhaps even walk in the opposite direction
but sooner or later you will hear it again, as a beacon in the night
trying to guide you back home

How does mobile power help?
Identifying waste in a facility is the first step to eliminating it. Some examples include unnecessary walking, pre-printing too many labels, bottlenecks and over processing of goods. While people and buildings are pretty well fixed, there are ways to better utilize the existing infrastructure and improve processes that will positively impact the bottom line.

If my father knew then that he had been replaced, he never let it show. If he sensed any disappointment over valentines that didn't arrive for me, he just tried that much harder to create a positive atmosphere, giving me an extra hug and doing what he could to make my day a little brighter. My mailbox eventually had a rural address, and the job of hand delivering candy and cards was relegated to the U.S.Postal Service. Never in ten years was my father's package late-- nor was it on the Valentine's Day eight years ago when I reached into the mailbox to find a card addressed to me in my mother's handwriting. It was the kind of card that comes in an inexpensive assortment box sold by a child going door-to-door to try to earn money for a school project. It was the kind of card that you used to get from a grandmother or an aging aunt or, in this case, a dying father. It was the kind of card that put a lump in your throat and tears in your eyes because you knew the person no longer was able to go out and buy a real valentine. It was a card that signaled this would be the last you receive from him.

The fact that you are loling at that demonstrates my point. Even including chernobyl, deaths and injuries from nuclear power are miniscule compared to those from coal and gas and even lower than those from solar and wind. These reactors have survived an earthquake and tsunami 7 times larger than they were designed to withstand and still only caused a major problem for a relatively local area. And these are the older style from the 70s that are coming to the end of their lifetimes. The newer ones are designed in such a way that a lot of the problems that have occured are not physically possible.

Where did you think all that water they were pouring on would run off too? That IS under control, the legal limits are set with constant exposure in mind not a one off release, and are extremely conservative. The radioactive elements are a type that will rapidly decay and be hugely diluted by the sea. Levels of radiation found in food so far are completely safe and we have no reason to expect them to become dangerous whatsoever. Stop being paranoid about what might happen because you don't understand nuclear technology and how safe it is, and worry about those people who have lost everything including friends and relatives in the tsunami.

Q:
ORACLE SQL: Use a SELECT statement to pass a value to a function parameter
I have a function in Oracle that will convert a comma-delimited string into a table of values. It is usually called like this:
SELECT DISTINCT COLUMN_VALUE FROM TABLE(Comma_String_To_Table('abc,123,def,456'));
This call would return a table with four rows:
COLUMN_VALUE
abc
123
def
456
I use this many times to accept multi-value parameters from a front end web page, convert the parameter to a table, then join the table to filter my results, something like this:
SELECT *
FROM MYTABLE m
INNER JOIN (
SELECT DISTINCT COLUMN_VALUE FROM TABLE(Comma_String_To_Table('abc,123'))
) f ON M.STATUS = F.COLUMN_VALUE
Now, to the question... I am writing a piece of standalone SQL. I want to use this Comma_String_To_Table function to filter my results just like in the example above, except that I want the value passed to the function to be the result of a SELECT statement. i.e:
SELECT *
FROM MYTABEL m
INNER JOIN (
SELECT DISTINCT COLUMN_VALUE FROM TABLE(Comma_String_To_Table(SELECT VALUE FROM APPSETTING WHERE APPSETTINGID = 76))
) f ON M.STATUS = F.COLUMN_VALUE
The SQL SELECT VALUE FROM APPSETTING WHERE APPSETTINGID = 76 results in a single comma-delimited string value.
The error I am getting is:
ORA-00936: missing expression
Any help to get this to work would be much appreciated.
A:
Try this:
SELECT *
FROM MYTABEL m
INNER JOIN (
SELECT DISTINCT COLUMN_VALUE
FROM TABLE (SELECT Comma_String_To_Table(VALUE)
FROM APPSETTING WHERE APPSETTINGID = 76)
) f ON M.STATUS = F.COLUMN_VALUE

Modulation of blood cell gene expression by DHA supplementation in hypertriglyceridemic men.
Our previous study with docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) supplementation to hypertriglyceridemic men showed that DHA reduced several risk factors for cardiovascular disease, including the plasma concentration of inflammatory markers. To determine the effect of DHA supplementation on the global gene expression pattern, we performed Affymetrix GeneChip microarray analysis of blood cells [treated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) or vehicle] drawn before and after the supplementation of DHA from the hypertriglyceridemic men who participated in that study. Genes that were significantly differentially regulated by the LPS treatment and DHA supplementation were identified. Differential regulation of 18 genes was then verified by quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Both microarray and qRT-PCR data showed that DHA supplementation significantly suppressed the expression of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor and cathepsin L1, both of which were also up-regulated by LPS. DHA supplementation also suppressed oxidized LDL (lectin-like) receptor 1 (OLR1). However, LPS did not induce OLR1 mRNA expression. Enrichment with Gene Ontology categories demonstrated that the genes related to transcription factor activity, immunity, host defense and inflammatory responses were inversely regulated by LPS and DHA. These results provide supporting evidence for the anti-inflammatory effects of DHA supplementation, and reveal previously unrecognized genes that are regulated by DHA and are associated with risk factors of cardiovascular diseases. | mini_pile | {'original_id': '499e8fb799b86833717065cde5441e3c37a84f08dfa4d864760d344361fd2b58'} |

These outfits are adorned with different kinds of designs like mirror work, stone work, appliqué, god string, and so on Indian wedding saris are bright and adorned, conveying parcel of effortlessness and wealth. | dclm_baseline | {'bff_contained_ngram_count_before_dedupe': '0', 'language_id_whole_page_fasttext': "{'en': 0.9675162434577942}", 'metadata': "{'Content-Length': '78017', 'Content-Type': 'application/http; msgtype=response', 'WARC-Block-Digest': 'sha1:QZ3BQJBZENVEPNIYI2XEWGKQY7TOURLO', 'WARC-Concurrent-To': '<urn:uuid:e98424fa-c34c-47cf-8705-65fa251c315d>', 'WARC-Date': datetime.datetime(2022, 9, 30, 3, 39, 50), 'WARC-IP-Address': '104.234.171.248', 'WARC-Identified-Payload-Type': 'text/html', 'WARC-Payload-Digest': 'sha1:LR3S7TTLR3WRML4R3TLNEXBE737ONLJR', 'WARC-Record-ID': '<urn:uuid:b47003b0-858e-490c-bf28-fbaf6fe3b562>', 'WARC-Target-URI': 'http://bamboo-parc.com/2021/bridal-sarees-are-outstanding-to-look-at/', 'WARC-Type': 'response', 'WARC-Warcinfo-ID': '<urn:uuid:3edeba5b-10af-46ec-8fb0-67e56bb23f4c>', 'WARC-Truncated': None}", 'previous_word_count': '511', 'url': 'http://bamboo-parc.com/2021/bridal-sarees-are-outstanding-to-look-at/', 'warcinfo': 'isPartOf: CC-MAIN-2022-40\r\npublisher: Common Crawl\r\ndescription: Wide crawl of the web for September/October 2022\r\noperator: Common Crawl Admin (info@commoncrawl.org)\r\nhostname: ip-10-67-67-28\r\nsoftware: Apache Nutch 1.19 (modified, https://github.com/commoncrawl/nutch/)\r\nrobots: checked via crawler-commons 1.4-SNAPSHOT (https://github.com/crawler-commons/crawler-commons)\r\nformat: WARC File Format 1.1\r\nconformsTo: https://iipc.github.io/warc-specifications/specifications/warc-format/warc-1.1/', 'fasttext_openhermes_reddit_eli5_vs_rw_v2_bigram_200k_train_prob': '0.030771195888519287', 'original_id': 'bc43a0ac105fd4455d83d222e247ae041eec9272cffb5db78507ac5b8f056e75'} |

A Note to Parents
We understand that seeing a son or daughter off on a gap year or independent travel experience can be a distressing and worrying time for those left behind. Where you once had some control and therefore some ability to protect your family, that rug is pulled out from beneath you.
The countries now open to independent travel are much more varied and much more accessible then they once were; areas that only a few years ago were war zones, are now travel destinations.
The limited life-experiences of young people can land them in hot water, it doesn’t mean that they get in any real trouble, but it can put them at more risk. When they are far away from home even small problems are greatly magnified by unfamiliarity.
Our Independent Travel Safety & Cultural Awareness Workshop helps participants to understand and reduce these risks and provides an insight into what they can expect during their travel.
Two of the main objectives for our workshops are:
• To provide relevant information to independent travellers to enable them to travel more safely, having prepared sufficiently.
• To lessen the concerns of the family and friends they are leaving behind, in the knowledge that the participant has prepared effectively to reduce the risks associated with their travel.
Our workshop concentrates on the needs of those travelling, while affirming the importance of maintaining communication with those left behind.
Many parents take some comfort by their children enrolling with a gap year or volunteering company of which many have sprung up over the years. Some of these companies are excellent in both the work they do and the training and support they offer. However this should not be taken for granted and we strongly recommend that participants do independent research into the company and don’t rely on the glossy brochures. One recent survey suggested 3 out of 4 of these companies provided inadequate training for their participants.
Amongst the angst of a parent, it is easy to forget the benefits of a gap year or independent travel. We believe in promoting the merit of independent travel; the majority of participants experience nothing but positive life-changing experiences which help to develop confidence and a greater understanding of the magnificence of the world around us.
When gap years are constructive and well planned, they are recognised by the vast majority of employers as a positive contribution to an individual’s CV.
There is not a single gap year, volunteering project or independent travel experience which does not challenge the participant. These challenges can be difficult but once overcome they develop skills and confidence which is unique to those involved.
When your son or daughter returns home from a successful trip, the difference will be immediately obvious; the stories they tell, the attitude they have and the experiences they want to share, will easily compensate for the anxiety you may have felt.
If you have specific questions on which you would like our opinion, please do not hesitate to Contact Us, we will always do our best to assist you. Our Consultancy Service can also address the specific needs of individuals or groups with professional travel safety and planning advice.
Our objective is not to eliminate your worry, we know that is impossible. Our objective is to provide your son or daughter with some of the critical tools which will help them reduce those risks which are ‘predictable’ and meet the challenges they will face with the confidence to overcome them.
‘Gappers’ should take away from their travels overwhelmingly positive experiences, which they will cherish for a lifetime. | dclm_baseline | {'bff_contained_ngram_count_before_dedupe': '0', 'language_id_whole_page_fasttext': "{'en': 0.9574700593948364}", 'metadata': "{'Content-Length': '20540', 'Content-Type': 'application/http; msgtype=response', 'WARC-Block-Digest': 'sha1:CK4VG6OF6TVLO2EOHXP77G6EOVBJL5FO', 'WARC-Concurrent-To': '<urn:uuid:02f75da6-5f66-4bd9-988b-52539cd180b5>', 'WARC-Date': datetime.datetime(2020, 5, 29, 16, 8, 36), 'WARC-IP-Address': '217.146.95.69', 'WARC-Identified-Payload-Type': 'application/xhtml+xml', 'WARC-Payload-Digest': 'sha1:VYLXPYJMJKIZ4K453NULKVJXE4SI6DTW', 'WARC-Record-ID': '<urn:uuid:61d093e1-517d-49e0-8ddf-c408d87827fe>', 'WARC-Target-URI': 'http://safegapyear.co.uk/our_advice/a_note_to_parents', 'WARC-Type': 'response', 'WARC-Warcinfo-ID': '<urn:uuid:3a36bdcf-4ec3-4cce-b4ef-544b894f833d>', 'WARC-Truncated': None}", 'previous_word_count': '602', 'url': 'http://safegapyear.co.uk/our_advice/a_note_to_parents', 'warcinfo': 'isPartOf: CC-MAIN-2020-24\r\npublisher: Common Crawl\r\ndescription: Wide crawl of the web for May/June 2020\r\noperator: Common Crawl Admin (info@commoncrawl.org)\r\nhostname: ip-10-67-67-124.ec2.internal\r\nsoftware: Apache Nutch 1.16 (modified, https://github.com/commoncrawl/nutch/)\r\nrobots: checked via crawler-commons 1.1-SNAPSHOT (https://github.com/crawler-commons/crawler-commons)\r\nformat: WARC File Format 1.1\r\nconformsTo: http://iipc.github.io/warc-specifications/specifications/warc-format/warc-1.1/', 'fasttext_openhermes_reddit_eli5_vs_rw_v2_bigram_200k_train_prob': '0.02977430820465088', 'original_id': '073620cf2061ce1752c444eaca5be2a5ec631a7e601aa45d6fe8d1a87811d9f5'} |

Concentrate On Your Core
Exercise Your Body from the Inside-Out
-- By The American Institute of Cancer Research
Whenever you walk or run, your core muscles are active, keeping you upright, balancing your body as your weight shifts, and absorbing the impact as your feet hit the ground. Your body’s core forms the foundation of all your movement. If your core is weak, you are susceptible to poor posture and injury. Lower back pain is also more likely to occur.
Your core muscles lie deep within your torso and pelvis. They are layered, overlapping and connected to each other.
Unlike weight lifting, a core-strengthening program exercises your whole system at once. You also don’t need any equipment. The strength you use in holding a position, as well as the gravitational pull of your own weight, work out the core muscles. You’ll be surprised at how great an effect a simple routine can have on your daily living activities.
The Core Benefits
The major core muscle is called the transversus abdominis. It is deep in your abdomen and circles your torso. To feel it contract, pull your belly button toward your spine. Hold the contraction for 10 seconds, then release. Repeat several times. You can do this exercise anytime, anywhere.
Breathing is important while you do core exercises. Practice breathing deeply from your diaphragm before starting core exercises. Sit or stand with your back straight and shoulders relaxed. Exhale through your mouth for 6 seconds, expelling as much air from your lungs as you can. Then inhale for 6 counts, feeling your belly and chest expand as your lungs fill with air. Repeat 3 times, then breathe at a more normal pace throughout
your exercises.
The following core exercises are simple enough to do on your own. To be safe, you should always check with your doctor before trying any new exercises.
Leg Press
Lie on the floor with your knees bent and the soles of your feet on the floor. Raise your right leg off the floor with the knee still bent until your leg forms a 90-degree angle. Rest your right hand on the kneecap. Push against your knee with your right hand while pulling your knee toward your hand with your abdominal muscles. Hold for 3-4 deep breaths. Repeat with the left leg and hand.
Abdominal Crunch
Lie on your back and place your feet on the wall, so that your knees form a 90-degree angle. Cross your arms on your chest. Keep your gaze fixed forward. Using your abdominal muscles—not your neck—lift your chest as far as you can off the floor, even if it is only an inch or two. Hold for 2-3 seconds if you can, then release. Repeat 8 times. Remember to breathe deeply throughout this exercise. | dclm_baseline | {'bff_contained_ngram_count_before_dedupe': '41', 'language_id_whole_page_fasttext': "{'en': 0.9375481605529784}", 'metadata': "{'Content-Length': '9059', 'Content-Type': 'application/http; msgtype=response', 'WARC-Block-Digest': 'sha1:AK5GDMEQGZZ6UCAFX4TK2IP3FIKTMR7U', 'WARC-Concurrent-To': '<urn:uuid:af51e1af-b3d0-4368-a60e-c058a399c5ba>', 'WARC-Date': datetime.datetime(2014, 12, 22, 3, 50, 52), 'WARC-IP-Address': '209.173.139.2', 'WARC-Identified-Payload-Type': None, 'WARC-Payload-Digest': 'sha1:DTFXLK22RQSVAOJP2MK5WGHREDWJVUA5', 'WARC-Record-ID': '<urn:uuid:4cdc1028-f2bf-4be4-b83c-7fcbf7f61d50>', 'WARC-Target-URI': 'http://www.sparkpeople.com/resource/articles_print.asp?id=428', 'WARC-Type': 'response', 'WARC-Warcinfo-ID': '<urn:uuid:77ed98b2-ed3a-46fe-8945-b85b1b7016c0>', 'WARC-Truncated': None}", 'previous_word_count': '466', 'url': 'http://www.sparkpeople.com/resource/articles_print.asp?id=428', 'warcinfo': 'robots: classic\r\nhostname: ip-10-231-17-201.ec2.internal\r\nsoftware: Nutch 1.6 (CC)/CC WarcExport 1.0\r\nisPartOf: CC-MAIN-2014-52\r\noperator: CommonCrawl Admin\r\ndescription: Wide crawl of the web with URLs provided by Blekko for December 2014\r\npublisher: CommonCrawl\r\nformat: WARC File Format 1.0\r\nconformsTo: http://bibnum.bnf.fr/WARC/WARC_ISO_28500_version1_latestdraft.pdf', 'fasttext_openhermes_reddit_eli5_vs_rw_v2_bigram_200k_train_prob': '0.02127891778945923', 'original_id': 'c0c2f2f5575dd67a26c4b0644119f552fccaf2c23f21022c24b2bd800e8be859'} |

The overall goal of my research program is to determine the molecular and structural determinants of dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM), the leading cause for heart failure (HF) worldwide. Three major groups of cardiac proteins are involved in DCM: cytoskeletal, nuclear, and sarcomeric. Our group focuses on the study of mutations occurring in phospholamban (PLN), a membrane protein involved in calcium transport in the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR). PLN binds and inhibits the SR Ca-ATPase (SERCA), regulating heart diastole. PLN phosphorylation at Ser16 by protein kinase A (PKA) reverses the inhibitory effects, constituting the primary response to b-adrenergic stimulation in the heart. Disruptions in the phosphorylation cycle progress to HF. The R9C mutation (PLNR9C) and R14 deletion (PLNR14del), both located in the PLN cytoplasmic domain, prevent PLN phosphorylation and lead to DCM via an unknown mechanism. Using a battery of biochemical, molecular biology, and spectroscopic methods, we will characterize the structural and dynamic effects of these mutations in the formation of the PKA/PLN complex and link them to their cardiotoxicity. Specifically, we plan to decipher the PLN recognition and phosphorylation mechanisms by the kinase in the presence and absence of these deadly mutations. Moreover, we will elucidate the role of lipid membranes and spatial localization via myristoylation in the phosphorylation process. These studies will set the groundwork for understanding the physiology and pathophysiology of phosphorylation signaling in the heart. | mini_pile | {'original_id': 'e5b119d68d98a6a3020fd9684ae08034f6aea22f528d9f3b78496b3505d96cfe'} |

Play Time: The Evolution of Trust
Fun interactive game theory simulator shows how trust and mistrust evolve
The Evolution of Trust is an interactive presentation by Nicky Case that explores cheating and cooperation. The short narrative experience attempts to explain the rise of mistrust and suspicion in today’s society through the lens of game theory.
The Christmas Truce of 1914 was a remarkable show of charity, as soldiers from World War One laid down their arms and turned battlefields into soccer pitches. Recent attempts to recreate this event in Battlefield 1 failed. Figuring out exactly what made the truce possible is a central question of The Evolution of Trust.
To answer this question, Case proposes a thought experiment. There is a machine where two players are meant to insert coins. If both insert one coin, each get two in return. However, if one player withholds their coin and the other inserts their own, the cheater gets three coins instead. If both cheat, they get nothing. What is the optimal strategy? Cheating. There’s everything to gain and nothing to lose.
Case expands to add a variety of strategies to examine if cheating is truly optimal. There are players who only cheat after being wronged and those who copy the last action taken against them. As more play-styles are added, cheating becomes less viable. The Evolution of Trust starts to account for issues like human errors and repeated contact with other players. More complex behavior emerge, including forgiveness and cooperation. These behaviors starts to overwhelm those who always cheat.
According to the model, trust can overcome suspicion if there’s repeated interactions and the potential for win-win scenarios. It helps explain why certain games and their structures fail to encourage cooperation.
PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds makes repeated contact with other players nearly impossible from game to game, and the goal itself makes a win-win scenario literally impossible. As a result, cheating and betrayal are effective, while trust is risky.
The Evolution of Trust does an excellent job explaining why players cooperate and cheat. It’s a brisk look at the multiple ways someone can play a game and how different strategies can win out against others. If you want a good sense of how multiplayer games work, definitely give it a look.
The Selfish Gene by Richard Dawkins is dedicated to analyzing game theory scenarios like this.

Bonesetter interventions and consequences.
Delaying the treatment of bone and tendon injuries may cause unmanageable complications. Bonesetters continue to cause delays in treatment. The purpose of this study was to analyze the medical outcomes of delay due to bonesetter intervention and factors affecting patient treatment preference. Among outpatients treated at our clinic between January 2010-December 2012, bonesetter-intervened patients were included, and patient demographics, clinical outcomes, and possible social factors were retrospectively analyzed. Clinical examinations and radiological screening measurements were used to evaluate outcomes. Of the 162 patients, 97 (59.8%) were male, and mean age was 27.5±9.4 years. Eighty-nine (54.9%) of the patients lived in a rural area, and 108 (66.7%) underwent surgery. Bonesetter preference was dictated primarily by elderly relatives (47.6%) or neighbors (33.3%). Patients with a primary school education and unemployed patients mostly preferred bonesetters (p=0.03 and p<0.01, respectively), the explanation for which was the long treatment period and concern of being disabled (p=0.04). Complication rate among patients who were evaluated at a hospital was 33.9%. Despite being medically unreliable and often times harmful, bonesetting is still accepted as an alternative treatment modality among uneducated patient and thus remains an ongoing problem in Turkey. Improvements in average education level and increased dissemination of accurate information via various media and non-governmental organizations will be effective in the correction and prevention of the afore-mentioned complications regarding bonesetter interventions. | mini_pile | {'original_id': '4620e1f47b593d1d449085e096d43bbf88020fbc5bd346e36ccfff715e19b782'} |

Sampling: is meant to select a part of elements in population, and conclusions obtain may be about the entire population.
Probability Sampling: probability sampling is based on concept of random selection, a controlled procedure that assures that each population element is given a known non zero chance of selection.
Complex Probability Sampling: an efficient sample in statistical sense is one that provides precision while using a smaller sample size. A sample that is economically efficient and should provide desired precision and accuracy at a lower cost, that is to choose such a design that is cheap in data collecting (less travel and interviewer time). Complex probability sampling considers following four approaches; systematic sampling, stratified sampling, cluster sampling and double sampling.
Systematic Sampling
A better and versatile approach in this; every kth element in the population is sampled; starting with a random start ranging from 1 to k. this approach is flexible & simple. With using this approach, there is no need to assemble cards in a file, just to choose the total cards and sampling ratio, and random start; then begin drawing sample by using every kth card. Systematic sampling is statistically more efficient than simple random sample, when dealing with similar population elements grouped together. One difficulty with systematic sampling is periodicity; that may yield bias results. Another concern is the monotone population. That may yield to similar results.
Stratified Sampling
Populations are sub divided into sub populations or sub groups (starta). The approach by which this decision is made (that is: what elements to include from subgroups) is named as stratified sampling. The process follows the following steps. After dividing population into subgroups, a simple random sample can be taken out from each subgroup and there after results can be combined according to population. There are three main reasons to choose stratified sampling approach .
1. This approach increase statistical efficiency
2. This approach provides adequate analysis of sub populations.
3. This approach enable us to use different research method and procedure for each and every subgroup /starta.
This approach is statistically more efficient as compared to simple random sampling, this approach is also helpful when research aim is to study the characteristics of a particular sub division of population. This approach is also helpful when different methods of data collection are applied in different parts of population. While using this approach, usually a primary variable is chosen, for which we believe will correlate other variables too.
Cluster Sampling
This approach is defined as the division of population into groups of elements with some groups randomly selected for study. Two reasons behind using the cluster sampling are:
1. This approach is more economic efficient than simple random sampling.
2. This approach can be applied even in unavailability of a practical sampling frame.
This approach is statistically less efficient the reason is that clusters are usually homogeneous, but economic efficiency overcomes this less statistical efficiency.
Double Sampling
This approach is also named as “sequential Sampling” or “multiphase sampling” and is define as “to collect some info by using sample and then to use this information as a base to choose a sub sample for in-depth study” this approach is called as double sampling. This is mostly use with combination to stratified and cluster sampling approaches.
Double sampling process includes collecting data from a sample using a previously defined technique; based on the information found, selecting a sub sample for further study.

Why It Pays To Have Daily Affirmations
01 Sep 2016
Life getting you a little bit down? Here is why daily affirmations are key to boosting your mood and helping you make the most out of every day.
Your Mind, Your Greatest Muscle
Happy Monday! #firefliesadelaide #adelaidecentralplaza #flowersinthegardenoflife

According to The Huffington Post, a person has between 50,000 - 70,000 thoughts on average per day. Now you need to wonder, how many of these thoughts are positive? If we empower our minds with enough sources of inspiration, love and encouragement, then we're bound to ensure the majority of these thoughts will be good. How do we this? Start your day on a positive note, you seriously need to tell yourself...
I Am Awesome
This is your Monday reminder that you can handle anything this week throws at you 💪🏽 #strength #willpower #youcandoit #actuallyican #monday #inspiration #firefliesadelaide #southaustralia #adelaide

Repeat that daily! Replace "I can't" with "I can", focus on your blessings not your worries and remember that if there's a way, then there's a will. Exercising positive actions and thinking positive thoughts is how you attain the strength to move forward, keep productive, remove self-doubt and embrace the day with a willingness to do better.
Lift Yourself, Then Others
happy monday! ❤ open 9am - 5:30pm today #firefliesadelaide #inspiration #beautifulminds #inspire #love #qotd #monday #adelaide

As the wise saying goes "treat people the way you'd like to be treated". But when enduring hard times, abandoning our own needs and putting ourselves last - it becomes incredibly difficult to truly be strong for others (or even a better person). This is where the importance of 'me-time' fits into the life equation of happiness. After all, when you work toward the best version of yourself - you continue to develop a beautiful mind, which is sure to emanate from inside out. And if you're dealing with a battle of your own, remember it's okay to need a shoulder to lean on, it's okay to take the time out to heal yourself and it's definitely more than okay to put yourself first - in fact, we highly recommend it, which leads us to...
You Come First
Because it's the weekend - make it happy! #weekend #happy #dowhatmakesyouhappy

You sure do. You need to be able to get yourself out of bed, to carry your own weight, to be strong enough for those you love and kind enough to those you encounter, but first - you need to make sure you've put yourself on the right track. We've all experienced negative relationships, but as we grow - we understand that there does come a point when we need to value ourselves and our own needs. If the relationships you've built honour the right foundations of patience, loyalty and trust, then you won't feel bad about missing that coffee date or cancelling brunch. Instead, you'll tell yourself you have to do what you need to do.
We're not superheroes, we're humans and as much as we like to think we can do it all - we just can't. But you know what? That's perfectly okay. Because we're all on the same boat sailing the sea that's called life. So embrace the stillness just as much as the waves!
Science Says So?
Happy Friday - be the pineapple! #firefliesadelaide #adelaidecentralplaza #surpriseanddelight #anywonder

In a recent scientific study published by Social Cognitive and Affective Neuroscience, participants were examined through brain imaging in order to test the theory of self-affirmation. The results suggest that self-affirmation is strongly interdependent with brain activity, where "the participants in the self-affirmation condition responded better than control participants to the health messages, becoming more active in the ensuing month after the study, as measured by accelerometers they wore on their wrists". Meaning to say, that those who are in a state of self-affirmation actually attain a wider perspective, granting them the ability to better restrain from negatively responding.
At the end of the day, to be truly happy means to be content with what you have and who you are. Easier said than done, but we believe that with enough self-love, you eventually be come so comfortable that you're your own best friend.
With the help of Adelaide Central Plaza's iconic destination for all things beautiful, Fireflies "Any Wonder", open 7 days a week, now you won't just say your affirmations - you'll look at them too.

Halsey Steals the Show at DKNY Party With Stunning Dress
New York Fashion Week is in full swing, with dozens of stars heading to the Big Apple to take in the five days of shows and various events. On Monday, Sept. 9, Halsey attended DKNY's 30th birthday party, which she performed at.
For the party, the singer wore a slinky black dress by the brand that featured spaghetti straps, large side slits and laces that held the whole thing together. Halsey accessorized with a simple pair of silver earrings, strappy black heels and a short black bob hairstyle.
Other guests included Kendall Jenner, Alessandra Ambrosio, Kehlani and Cara Delevingne.

During the event, Halsey performed hits including "Without Me" and "Bad at Love." The 24-year-old also likely performed her new single "Graveyard," which is due out on Friday, Sept. 13. The song follows the star's latest release, "Nightmare," which marks a venture into more of a rock sound compared to her previous work.
In addition to performing, Halsey is also the face of DKNY's latest campaign, which celebrates 30 years of the brand.
“DKNY is the spirit of New York. It’s diversity and drive. It’s hard work and a pinch of destiny,” Halsey said in a statement, via Just Jared. “They say if a bee strays too far from its hive, it will die. DKNY keeps my home in my heart, and the magic in my mind. It’s an honor to be a part of their 30th birthday.”

In a video for the campaign, Halsey reflected on her time living in New York City.
"I was living in Brooklyn and I was living with people who were painters, or they were rappers, they were glass blowers," she recalled. "We were all hopping from couch to couch, studio to studio. I was surrounded by all these amazing artists, but I was really just a wallflower. I was just watching everybody else do their thing. It was like everyone else had it figured out but me. I was like a jack of all trades, master of none."
She eventually found her path when she realized that her given name, Ashley, could be rearranged to form the name Halsey.
"I just started thinking to myself, I was like, 'Halsey?'" she said. "And then it clicked, and I realized that it was just the same letters of my name, rearranged. So there was some voice in the back of my head that was saying, 'That's you. That's you, that's your identity, that's your name. You answer to that.'"

TRENTON, N.J. (AP) - New Jersey health officials say the state has had its first death tied to vaping.
The Health Department said in a statement Tuesday that a woman from northern New Jersey died in August. Her identity and details surrounding her death were not released.
The department says the death is one of two “probable” cases linked to vaping. Overall there are 14 cases of serious lung disease in the state associated with vaping.
More than a dozen people have died across the country from the mysterious lung illnesses and hundreds more have reported illnesses.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said last month its investigation into the outbreak is looking at products containing the marijuana compound THC.
A New Jersey task force report on vaping is expected later this week.

Looks like Taylor Swift isn’t the only one that can bring random celebrities onstage during a song for no real reason whatsoever. During his Chicago show Billy Joel started “Uptown Girl” and brought out a few dancers including Amy Schumer and Jennifer Lawrence. It’s definitely good for live concerts because now you have no idea who will be showing up during a random song by your favorite artist. | dclm_baseline | {'bff_contained_ngram_count_before_dedupe': '0', 'language_id_whole_page_fasttext': "{'en': 0.9611621499061584}", 'metadata': "{'Content-Length': '62729', 'Content-Type': 'application/http; msgtype=response', 'WARC-Block-Digest': 'sha1:SWNVMJS6BAQQ6FIXVM7GG5O2N7QIUWNS', 'WARC-Concurrent-To': '<urn:uuid:96edb042-7299-4a7a-b9fe-c8bce0e03d7f>', 'WARC-Date': datetime.datetime(2017, 8, 19, 15, 7, 3), 'WARC-IP-Address': '151.101.32.65', 'WARC-Identified-Payload-Type': 'text/html', 'WARC-Payload-Digest': 'sha1:AWBIQ36FI7J3AYVORYZP662Q3XAPAENJ', 'WARC-Record-ID': '<urn:uuid:35a25f3a-8e58-45e4-8923-4280f2a5eba3>', 'WARC-Target-URI': 'http://www.playboy.com/articles/amy-schumer-and-jennifer-lawrence-danced-on-billy-joel-s-piano-during-his', 'WARC-Type': 'response', 'WARC-Warcinfo-ID': '<urn:uuid:53a3294e-df40-49bc-a93d-9fc85b4b1e03>', 'WARC-Truncated': None}", 'previous_word_count': '67', 'url': 'http://www.playboy.com/articles/amy-schumer-and-jennifer-lawrence-danced-on-billy-joel-s-piano-during-his', 'warcinfo': 'robots: classic\r\nhostname: ip-10-145-170-239.ec2.internal\r\nsoftware: Nutch 1.6 (CC)\r\nisPartOf: CC-MAIN-2017-34\r\noperator: Common Crawl Admin\r\ndescription: Wide crawl of the web for August 2017\r\npublisher: Common Crawl\r\nformat: WARC File Format 1.0\r\nconformsTo: http://bibnum.bnf.fr/WARC/WARC_ISO_28500_version1_latestdraft.pdf', 'fasttext_openhermes_reddit_eli5_vs_rw_v2_bigram_200k_train_prob': '0.04362839460372925', 'original_id': '0b79be7804c923ec8e8db6736133fc18bf84ccf705aa2cff028e083231fb3116'} |
Talemzane crater
Madna or Talemzane () is an impact crater in Algeria, 40 km south-east of Hassi Delaa (a small city).
Explored for the first time in 1928, studied in 1950 and 1988 by researchers from the universities of Oran (Algeria) and Nice (France). It is 1.75 km in diameter and the age is estimated to be less than three million years and is probably Pliocene.

Ludei's HTML5 "PhoneGap Killer"
HTML5 maverick outfit Ludei has introduced an update to its CocoonJS platform, which claims to deliver 10 times the speed and performance of Adobe's PhoneGap. Positioned as "the first true PhoneGap alternative" for the developer marketplace, the company is bullish enough to suggest that the HTML5 versus Native debate is over.
The company says it has helped more than 20,000 game developers publish HTML5 on iOS, Android, and Amazon (and other platforms), with "native-like" performance and features.
"Performance in HTML5 is no longer a problem for developers," said Eneko Knorr, founder and CEO, Ludei. "Ludei's proprietary acceleration technology enables HTML5 apps and games to run at 60 frames per second on every mobile device. Now, finally, HTML5 is ready for cross platform app development."
Knorr aggressively asserts that thousands of HTML5 app developers have been using Adobe's PhoneGap and (as he puts it) have been "locked into a system" that requires considerable developer compromises in performance.
Ludei says that it also solves the challenge to run WebGL content on iOS devices. It does this by allowing WebGL developers to publish apps and games featuring the 3D content demanded by consumers, using WebGL.

Endometrial polyps
Updated: 4/11/2007 2:50 pm
Endometrial or uterine polyps (PAUL-ips) are soft, fingerlike growths which develop in the lining of the uterus, that usually occur in women over 40. However, women can develop them at any age after menstruation begins. Frequently, endometrial polyps are the cause of nonmenstrual bleeding. The doctor can find them by using a small telescope called a hysteroscope (HISS-ter-oh-scope), to look into the uterus. It's possible that an endometrial polyp may be rooted high in the uterus, with a stem reaching all the way to the cervix. This type of polyp is usually located and removed in surgery. Luckily, polyps tend to be easy to remove, because they're often loosely attached to the uterine lining. After the surgery, the endometrial polyp and some of the surrounding tissue are studied by the pathologist to make sure about the diagnosis. Doctors don't know what causes polyps, but in the uterus, they're usually harmless. However, if you have any unusual menstrual symptoms such as heavy or long periods, spotting between periods, or severe cramps, contact a health care professional for an examination.

How does a dryer moisture sensor work?
Quick Answer
Dryer moisture sensors determine if a tumbling load of clothes is dry by measuring the heat, weight or electrical conductivity of that load. Once the clothes are considered dry, the sensor initiates a cool-down cycle. It then shuts the dryer down.

Full Answer
Dryers have three different types of moisture sensors. One uses a thermostat, which is placed inside an opening near the drum. As the clothes dry, heat is released into that opening. When a set level of heat reaches the thermostat's sensor, the dryer starts its shutdown phase.
The second type of sensor consists of two prongs set near the back of the drum. Because wet clothes are heavier, centrifugal force causes them to spin close to the sides of the drum, which keeps the two prongs touching each other. As the clothes dry, they gravitate toward the center of the drum, which causes the prongs to open. The open prongs indicate the clothes are done.
High-end dryers usually use a conductive sensor that measures the electrical resistance in a load of clothes to determine if they are dry. Because water conducts electricity, wet clothes are less resistant to an electrical charge than dry. When a set resistance level is reached, the moisture sensor initiates the cool-down period and shuts off the dryer.

Don Carey was supposed to be at the Chesapeake, Virginia, home of one of his friends Thursday, mingling with a few dozen millennials, listening to their vision of the city’s future and brainstorming ways he could help make it come true.
He had another meet-and-greet planned for the next night, a fundraiser in one of Chesapeake’s up-and-coming neighborhoods that the former Detroit Lions safety hoped would help finance his bid for one of three open seats on the city council.
But on Monday, Virginia became the latest state to issue a stay-at-home order because of the coronavirus pandemic — a directive that will run through June 10.
The election is May 5.
“This is probably the craziest time I could have ever picked to run for political office,” Carey said in a phone interview with the Free Press. “I can’t get in front of my constituents. I can’t, as they say, shake hands, kiss babies.”
It’s a path almost everyone who knew him in Detroit expected he’d take. Former Lions coach Jim Caldwell even joked in a video at Carey’s retirement party that Carey’s next position would be as a mayor or congressman.
[ Chase Daniel will make the Detroit Lions' locker room better. Here's how ]
Except it also has brought him face to face with COVID-19, a foe even the most seasoned of politicians never could have imagined.
Carey — who played all but one season of his 2010-2018 NFL career in Detroit — is one of seven candidates, and said that even before the stay-home order, campaigning had been reduced because of social distancing guidelines.
“I’ll tell you what I’ve found in this political thing, I don’t care much for the politics of it, but I do love dealing with people, hearing the issues that matter to people and then getting something solved,” he said. “It’s tougher to hear those issues (now), so I’m left to tell people what I care about.
[ NFL planning for 'traditional' 2020 season despite coronavirus delay ]
"But thankfully, I’ve been around enough and I’ve talked to enough people that I kind of get an understanding of what the different areas, different neighborhoods of the city are needing. And the things that I care about aren’t too far off or aren’t different at all than what the different areas already need.”
Carey said he first considered pursuing a post-NFL career in politics in 2015 when he encountered red tape while trying to bring STEM programs to four Detroit-area schools as part of a charitable endeavor with the Lions.
“We were having some issues with logistics and the politics of things,” he said. “So I kind of went above dealing with just the one school and started dealing with the school board, and saw how influential the school board was to actually getting things accomplished inside of schools.
"And then I began seeing how the school boards were limited in their authority to do things, so I eventually went above even them and started working with different city council members in Detroit. So I’m like, ‘OK, I can see the extent and the power that a city council has in a particular city.' "
Caldwell put Carey in touch with former NFL receiver Steve Largent, who was an Oklahoma congressman for eight years. Carey said Largent has been a valuable sounding board, helping him navigate the political process and prepare for a campaign.
Carey said he also has adapted the coaching pointers he learned in the NFL to politics, including one of former Lions special teams coordinator John Bonamego’s favorite sayings: Gain the advantageous ground.
Carey used that approach to become one of the best special teams players in the NFL. In politics, it has led him to moves he hopes help get him elected.
Before coronavirus restrictions slowed campaigning, he raced to collect the 125 signatures required to appear on the ballot on Jan. 2, the first day allowed. Because he was the first to turn his signatures in, his name appears first on the ballot.
“Studies show that individuals in the No. 1 position get 5 more percent of the vote than (they would) if that individual is in any other position (on the ballot),” Carey said.
He had campaign material printed early, which allowed him to get signs out on the first day permitted, 60 days before the election. And he booked advertising space early on billboards and in local newspapers on dates he believed were strategic to the election.
Now, with in-person fundraising dried up, Carey has turned largely to a digital campaign. He’s accepting donations through his website, VoteDonCarey.com — he's not quite halfway to his fundraising goal, with 10 to 15 events like the ones he had planned for this week already canceled.
He spent a day last week working on letters to educate voters about the absentee voting process and how to stay safe in the age of coronavirus.
“Everybody’s locked down,” he said. “But I do think we’re going to tackle this thing soon.”
When Virginia’s stay-home order is lifted, he plans to be back in the community one way or another — and hopefully as the newest member of Chesapeake’s city council.
“I’m just going to throw my hat out there and see who they cheer for,” Carey said. “But I think we have a very good chance.”

This week we’re doing Amal El-Mohtar’s And Their Lips Rang with the Sun. This story is gorgeous, and if you google around the internets you’ll see I’m not the only one who thinks so. El-Mohtar does a lot of work with poetry and it shows in her prose – it’s always lush and evocative. In this story she’s basically showing off with a giant, “Hey, look what I can do.”
For this trip through the Craft Crucible, I want to dig into her choices if imagery and where those choices get deployed. We have the frame story and the story-story, and the narrative treats them differently. The frame story is in an aggressive second person while the story-story is a more traditional third. But that’s not the only difference; the imagery for the frame story is food centric, with spicy tea taking the lead and threading through all the frame-intrusions. The other half uses celestial imagery – it’s all sun and moon focused.
Had cinnamon been ground and rubbed into their skin, they could not have been more brown, more fragrant, more beloved of the wine-bright sky.
This line from the first paragraph of the story does a superb job of setting up the two sets of imagery. We’re in the frame story, though it’s too soon for the reader to know that yet, but we’re talking about the sun girls who will take center stage once we move out of the frame. And we see both sets if imagery, the cinnamon and wine for the frame, the sky for the nested tale. Imagery is something readers are rarely conscious of while they’re reading, so it’s easy to get sloppy in how it’s deployed. Done well, like it is here, it builds and gives a subtle structure that guides the reader’s experience through the story.
Have you ever tasted a fig? A pomegranate? You have not until you have tried your teeth against ours. Come into my house; sit down, friend, eat; let this old woman pour you a tea sweet as the sight of our Sun-girls while I tell you about them.
Food imagery as it pertains to describing women is a loaded subject and one that I am fairly confident El-Mohtar is aware of. Even if I didn’t know more about her than this story, she dodges most of the pitfalls by justifying the use of the food imagery in this case; it’s relevant because these women play a direct part in the presence of the food. Their task causes the weather that produces the crops, and so the relationship is one of mutual reinforcement. The story then takes the payoff from that work when, after using cinnamon, wine, figs, and pomegranates to give us a picture rife with associations of the women, we then describe the tea by referencing them. So the women cause the food in the story, the food describes the women to the readers, and then the women serve as a referent as we get back to the food. It’s a tidy cycle and you can see it starting to pay off in the first five paragraphs.
I like the use of the tea through the story here not just because it closes the loop on the women-food imagery, but because it provides a piece of business that pulls the reader through the frame. We’re being addressed directly even though it’s very clear by the end of the story that the “you” being addressed is not me. But are you going to explain to an old lady pressing spicy tea on you that you’re not whoever it is she thinks you are? I’m not.
Dear friend, console yourself; you are in a civilised country, among the learned and the wise. Drink your tea.
I especially like this use here, because the space between the frame and the nested story has collapsed. El-Mohtar is pausing a moment to dispel probable reader assumptions, i.e. that this exotic, numinous society shaped by a sun cult is abusive and barbaric. We need this not just because the story is pitched to a western audiences likely to make assumptions about societies patterned after Middle Eastern ones, but to collapse the spectrum of possibilities for the consequences of Lam’s dereliction of duty. If we’re expected her to be abused and tortured, it’ll undermine the genuine heartbreak of her isolation and estrangement from her companions. So here we gently pick on the reader a bit, get all that leg work done, and just to keep things from getting confusing, reference the tea to remind you that we’ve stepped back into the frame for a moment.
She taught dancing to the common folk, and grew to be a garrulous old woman among them, known for accosting strangers in the square and plying them with more spicy tea than their bladders can comfortably hold.
And this is where the tea imagery really starts to pay off, because it’s what we’re given as our first solid clue about the identity of the narrator. This is the first place where the story begins to acknowledge that the Lam of the nested tale and the Mal of the frame story (see what she did there?) are the same person. The tea doesn’t just navigate is through the weak places in the narrative where the frame interrupts, but it ties them together for the reader.
I’ll leave digging into the celestial imagery as an exercise to the reader. Feel free to share your results!

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Cam Newton will likely be the NFL MVP, and he played like it on Sunday. The Panthers defense was pretty darn good, too.
Newton threw for 335 yards and accounted for four Carolina touchdowns to power the Panthers past the Cardinals and into Super Bowl 50 with a 49-15 victory in the NFC championship game at Bank of America Stadium. The Carolina defense forced seven turnovers and held the NFL's top-ranked offense to 287 yards — 121 beneath their average.
The 49 points scored by the Panthers are the most by a team in a NFC championship game during the Super Bowl era. The seven turnovers are the most in a playoff game since the Rams forced eight turnovers in a 2001 win over the Packers.
The Panthers will face the AFC champion Broncos in Super Bowl 50 at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, Calif., on Feb. 7.
Just as they did last week against the Seahawks, the Panthers started fast in Sunday's NFC championship game against the Cardinals. The Panthers were the only team to go undefeated at home during the regular season and remained so by turning in one of their most complete games of the season.
The Panthers took advantage of four Arizona turnovers and got big plays from receiver Ted Ginn and Corey Brown to hold a 24-7 halftime lead at Bank of America Stadium.
After the Panthers got a 45-yard Graham Gano field goal on their first possession, Ted Ginn's 32-yard punt return helped spark Carolina's second series. The Panthers began their second drive at the Cardinals 49-yard line and took a 10-0 lead on Ginn's 22-yard touchdown run. Ginn took the end-around handoff from Cam Newton and got around Cardinals cornerback Justin Bethel before darting back across the field. Panthers receiver Corey Brown then got in the way of Jerraud Powers to allow Ginn to scamper into the end zone.
"Philly" found the end zone himself on Carolina's next possession. Newton threw a dart to Brown, who then sprinted past safety Rashad Johnson for an 86-yard score as the Panthers held a 17-0 lead at the end of the first quarter.
The Cardinals led the league in total offense and were second in scoring — behind only Carolina — but couldn't get anything going against an aggressive Panthers defense. Cardinals quarterback Carson Palmer was harassed all night and finished 23 of 40 for 235 yards with a touchdown and four interceptions and was sacked three times with two fumbles. Arizona's super receiver trio of Larry Fitzgerald, Michael Floyd and John Brown were held to a combined nine receptions for 90 yards.
A Kawann Short sack of Palmer caused a fumble, which was recovered by Panthers linebacker Luke Kuechly at the Carolina 38. The Cardinals defense forced a Panthers punt and the offense finally found a rhythm on the ensuing possession. The Cardinals went 79 yards on 10 plays to get on the board with a 1-yard David Johnson plunge.
The Cardinals defense forced another punt on the next Panthers series, but Patrick Peterson muffed the punt while trying to catch it on the run. After Teddy Williams recovered for Carolina, the Panthers converted the turnover into a Newton dive over the pile from a yard out.
Peterson tried to make up for his muff with an interception following another Palmer sack-fumble. Peterson return the pick 73 yards to the Panthers 22, but Palmer was intercepted by Kurt Coleman in the end zone on the very next play.
The Panthers lost a pair of defensive starters in the first half with linebacker Thomas Davis (right arm) and safety Roman Harper (right eye) ruled out for the remainder of the game.
The Panthers led 31-0 in last Sunday's divisional playoff game, but had to hold off a second-half Seahawks rally for a 31-24 win.
The Panthers opened the second half with an 11-play drive that spanned 80 yards and ended in a 21-yard Gano chip shot to put the Panthers up by 20. Newton powered the Panthers on their next scoring drive — running over Cardinals safety Chris Clemons to pick up 11 yards on a third-and-10 run. He then ran through the Cardinals defense on the next play for a 12-yard touchdown to give the Panthers a commanding 34-7 lead with 2:08 remaining in the third quarter.
The Cardinals found the end zone again early in the fourth quarter on a 21-yard touchdown pass from Palmer to tight end Darren Fells.
Coleman, who had seven interceptions in the regular season but gave up some big plays last week, recorded his second interception of the NFC championship game in the fourth quarter. Palmer was trying to hit John Brown deep, but Coleman jumped up to pick it off at the 1-yard line.
Following a 15-yard facemask penalty on Brown, the Panthers went 84 yards on nine plays — including a 54-yard pass to Greg Olsen — to further the rout with a 5-yard touchdown pass to Devin Funchess. On the first play of Arizona's ensuing possession, Panthers linebacker Luke Kuechly picked off Palmer and returned it 21 yards for a touchdown to send the 74,294 fans into a frenzy. | mini_pile | {'original_id': '4b94598c378bff9cb701659ea7479637dced3965920929ab1114121e9c494dda'} |

1.. Epidemiology
================
The incidence of congenital heart disease ranges from 7 to 8 per 1,000 infants. These defects are diagnosed through different techniques such as fetal echocardiography and postnatal referral to a specialized center. Forty-six percent of deaths due to congenital malformations are due to congenital heart defects (CHD), which also accounts for 3% of all infant deaths. CHD is the primary cause of prenatal and infant death from a congenital birth defect. Eighteen to 25% of infants with CHD succumb in the first year. Four percent of infants with congenital heart defects succumb by the end of adolescence ([@b1-etm-0-0-3167],[@b2-etm-0-0-3167]).
There are different types of CHD, the most common of which is a bicuspid aortic valve (BAV). The incidence of BAV is between 0.5 and 2%, however, it is rarely diagnosed when the child is an infant. Some of the other common defects include ventricular septal defects (VSDs), with an incidence of 4/1,000 and secundum atrial septal defects (ASDs) with an incidence of 2/1,000 births. Tetralogy of fallot is another common CHD, with an incidence of 0.5/1,000 births ([@b1-etm-0-0-3167],[@b3-etm-0-0-3167]).
When CHD requires surgery or catheter-based intervention in the first year of an infant\'s life, it is termed critical CHD (CCHD). CCHD includes ductal-dependent and cyanotic lesions. In children with critical CHD, there is an increase in morbidity and mortality when the infant is not diagnosed within a particular period of time. CCHD constitutes 25% of all CHD ([@b4-etm-0-0-3167]).
2.. Pathology
=============
The ductus arteriosus is a blood vessel that connects the aorta and the pulmonary arteries during gestation ([@b5-etm-0-0-3167]). The fetal blood circulation is dependent on this blood vessel, which normally closes shortly after birth. CHD issues are usually dependent on this vessel. Symptoms may not appear at birth due to the fact that the vessel may not be closed before the patient is discharged. Notably, in some cases doctors attempt to keep the ductus arteriosus open in order that children with CHD can maintain oxygen levels until surgeons are able to repair the issue. An example of such a case is if the CHD decreased blood flow to the lungs. CCHD involves surgery or catheter intervention in the first year of life. These heart defects, which are structural, lead to abnormal low blood levels of oxygen. When there are low blood oxygen levels, the condition is known as hypoxemia. Screening for these issues is carried out between 24 and 48 h post-birth. If these conditions are diagnosed any later, the infant with CCHD is at considerable risk for death ([@b6-etm-0-0-3167],[@b7-etm-0-0-3167]).
3.. Risk factors
================
Numerous factors, such as rubella infection at the time of pregnancy, maternal diabetes, use of alcohol and smoking, as well as certain medications are associated with an increase in the risk of CHD in infants ([@b7-etm-0-0-3167]). When these factors are present, a doctor should be cautious and attentive to the infant. Prematurity is a significant risk factor for all CHD, except isolated ductus arteriosus. The risk of CHD is 2- to 3-fold higher in infants born at \<37 weeks gestation when compared to infants born at 9 months. Family history is another risk factor for CHD. Infants with first-degree relatives with CHD are three times more likely to develop CHD. Genetic syndromes are common in infants with CHD. In one study, it was found that 7% of infants with CHD also had chromosomal defects. In addition, 22% of patients with CHD had extracardiac anomalies ([@b8-etm-0-0-3167]). Another risk factor for CHD is when the mother has certain diseases. These diseases include diabetes mellitus, hypertension, obesity, phenylketonuria, thyroid issues, epilepsy and connective tissue disorders. Furthermore, consumption of drugs by the mother during the gestation period such as phenytoin, retinoic acid, cigarettes and alcohol, it can lead to cardiac defects. Using assisted reproductive technology (ART) is another risk factor for CHD. Infections *in utero*, such as rubella, can also lead to congenital defects. If the mother, when pregnant, is infected with influenza or another flu-type disease, this is also associated with CHD. Viruses such as cytomegalovirus, coxsackie, herpes virus 6, toxoplasmosis gondii, parvovirus B19 and HIV may also lead to congenital cardiomyopathy ([@b9-etm-0-0-3167]--[@b11-etm-0-0-3167]).
4.. Diagnosis
=============
Most of the time clinicians, using fetal echocardiography, are able to diagnose CHD *in utero*. Risk factors need to be identified promptly in order that a referral can be made for fetal echocardiography, which is a routine antenatal ultrasound. This method includes examination of the fetal heart with a four-chamber view. However, studies in the last decade have indicated that \<50% of patients with CCHD are identified *in utero*. There are seven main CCHD screening targets. These targets are hypoplastic left heart syndrome, pulmonary atresia, tetralogy of fallot, total anomalous pulmonary venous return (TAPVR), transposition of great arteries, tricuspid atresia and truncus arteriosus. Tetralogy of fallot, double outlet right ventricle and transposition of the great arteries are particular difficult to identify. As research and screening recommendations have improved over the past decade, VCHD diagnoses in gestation have improved from 44 to 67% ([@b12-etm-0-0-3167],[@b13-etm-0-0-3167]).
A study ([@b14-etm-0-0-3167]) found that 33% of infants with critical CHD were diagnosed post-birth. These infants often have very serious issues, such as tetralogy of fallot, hypoplastic left heart syndrome, pulmonary atresia, total anomalous pulmonary venous return, transposition of great arteries, tricuspid atresia and truncus arteriosus, which can be life threatening and may need immediate intervention. Infants with CCHD may present no problems at birth and may not develop problems until they have been discharged from the hospital. The severity of the underlying lesions may determine when an infant with CCHD presents symptoms. Some of the CCHD reported later than normal are interrupted aortic arch, coarctation of the aorta, transposition of the great arteries, pulmonary valve stenosis, tetralogy of fallot and aortic stenosis. Some infants with CCHD can be diagnosed through a procedure known as pulse oximetry screening. Prior to the introduction of pulse oximetry screening, a third of patients with infants with CCHD were discharged without a diagnosis. In an infant with CCHD that is not diagnosed, the mortality risk is almost 30%. This constituted a risk to infants with ductal-dependent lesions, which can rapidly progress to a life-threatening state such as severe metabolic acidosis, cardiac arrest and cardiac shock ([@b15-etm-0-0-3167],[@b16-etm-0-0-3167]).
5.. The CHD model: screens and costs
====================================
It is predicted that in a population of 100,000 infants, 121 infants are likely to have CHD that was not diagnosed at prenatal screening ([@b17-etm-0-0-3167]). Post-birth, 82% of the CHD are detected by pulse oximetry screening and 83% are diagnosed by an echocardiography. However, only 39% of CHD are detected by clinical examination. Only 0.13% of infants with pulse oximetry are also diagnosed false-positive following screening for CHD. In addition, 5.4% of infants have a false-positive diagnosis when screened for CHD by echocardiography. While these procedures are necessary for the timely diagnosis of CHD in infants, these procedures are expensive. Clinical examinations cost \$450,000, pulse oximetry costs \$700,000 and echocardiography costs \$5.35 million per year. The detection rates of pulse oximetry and echocardiography are the key characteristics that determine whether these procedures are cost-effective ([@b18-etm-0-0-3167],[@b19-etm-0-0-3167]).
6.. Pulse oximetry screen
=========================
A pulse oximetry screen is performed on an infant within the first 24 h of life, and can easily and quickly determine whether an infant has CCHD. This procedure was developed in the early 1970s, and is dependent on the different absorption spectrum that exists between oxygenated and deoxygenated hemoglobin. Deoxygenated blood absorbs light in the red wavelength while oxygenated blood absorbs light in the infrared band. These light absorbance ratios correlate with the degree of saturation of hemoglobin in the blood vessels. A positive pulse oximetry screen is when the measured oxygen saturation is less than 90% and there is no need to repeat the test. If the blood saturations is \<95% or if there is a difference in blood oxygen level of ≥4% between the right hand and foot, the test should be repeated. Pulse oximetry screening does not identify all CCHD. Therefore, it is possible for an infant with a negative pulse oximetry screening to have CCHD ([@b19-etm-0-0-3167]--[@b21-etm-0-0-3167]).
7.. Fetal echocardiogram
========================
A fetal echocardiogram is an ultrasound of the baby\'s heart during gestation. A transducer, which is a small camera, is placed on the abdomen of the mother and ultrasonic sound waves allow the fetus to be imaged. These ultrasound waves bounce off organs, such as the heart and are transmitted to the camera and allow a video of the fetus. These waves also allow for the blood flow to the fetus\'s heart to be detected. Fetal echocardiograms are carried out particularly for fetuses that are more prone to develop CCHD. This includes risk factors such diagnosis of a first-degree relative with CHD or if there is a family history of disorders such Marfan\'s syndrome. Echocardiograms are also performed post-birth if an infant is tested positive for the pulse oximetry screen, which is used to confirm the diagnosis ([@b19-etm-0-0-3167],[@b22-etm-0-0-3167],[@b23-etm-0-0-3167]).
8.. Clinical examination
========================
A physical clinical examination is performed by a child\'s doctor when a heart condition is suspected. This involves a head-to-toe assessment. The doctor initially examines the head checking the anterior fontanelle, which is also known as the soft spot on the top of an infant\'s head. The anterior fontanelle is usually flat, soft and level with the rest of the head. The nostrils are also examined as many CHD can stress the lungs, which lead to difficulty in breathing. The degree of difficulty when it comes to breathing can be determined by observing whether the nostrils flare when the child breathes. Nostrils tend to open wider when the lungs are working harder than normal. Lip color is another characteristic used to determine whether a child has CHD ([@b23-etm-0-0-3167]). While normally the inside of the lips are pink, a blue or a purple color mean that the blood oxygen levels are low, generally between 80 and 87%. As low blood oxygen levels indicate CHD, lip color is a useful manner in which to determine the presence of a defect in an infant. The doctor also examines the neck. If the veins and arteries are visible in the neck, the heart may not be pumping efficiently.
Using a stethoscope, the doctor also listens to the heart and lungs of the infant. One of the most telling signs for an infant with CHD is retraction, which is an inward pulling of the lung muscles. Additionally, any abnormal sounds may indicate murmurs, clicks and beats. Abnormal sounds may also be present in the lungs, as fluid can accumulate and cause crackle-type noises or congestion sounds. The heart and breathing rates are counted as a difference in either is indicative the presence of CHD. Examination of the abdomen is important as many CHD cause problems with water homeostasis and cause swelling in organs such as the liver. An enlarged liver is indicative of CHD. The arms and legs, as well as the area around the groin, behind the knee or surface of the foot are examined for a pulse. A weak and a strong pulse may indicate heart problems. Cool skin temperature, as well as extremely blue or purple or widened nails are other symptoms that are considered ([@b24-etm-0-0-3167],[@b25-etm-0-0-3167]).
9.. CHD surgery: patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) ligation
========================================================
When the PDA does not close in infants, it can cause problems later in life. The opening may be closed using medication, although administering drugs is not always effective. The opening may also be closed using a non-surgical procedure, involving the use of X-rays. In the surgical procedure, a small incision is made in the groin and a wire is inserted into an artery in the leg and taken up to the heart. A device, which is sometimes a small metal coil, is then passed from the wire to the infant\'s PDA. This device blocks the blood flow and repairs the damage. Another surgical method to repair PDA is by making a small incision on the left side of the chest. Then, the doctor either ties or clips the ductus arteriosus, known as ligation ([@b25-etm-0-0-3167],[@b26-etm-0-0-3167]).
10.. CHD surgery: coarctation of the aorta repair
=================================================
One of the congenital heart defects occurs when a part of the aorta has an extremely narrow section and resembles a bow. The narrowing makes it hard for the blood to be pumped to the extremities, which can eventually lead to extremely high BP ([@b27-etm-0-0-3167]). This is repaired surgically by making an incision on the left side of the chest, cutting the narrow section and making it larger with a patch of Gore-tex. Another technique that can be employed involves the removal of the narrow section of the aorta and stitching the ends together, a method used in older children ([@b28-etm-0-0-3167]). Another method involves the subclavian flap, in which an incision is made in the narrow sectino. Subsequently, a section is taken from the subclavian artery and placed therein to enlarge the aorta. Connecting the enlarged sections of the aorta, which bypasses the narrow part of the aorta may also be utilized. A non-surgical method has also recently been used whereby a wire is taken up to the aorta through the groin. A stent is placed to open the artery, similar to the ones that are used for atherosclerosis ([@b29-etm-0-0-3167],[@b30-etm-0-0-3167]).
11.. CHD surgery: atrial and VSD repair
=======================================
In some CHD, there is a hole in the atrial septum wall, which is located between the left and right atria of the heart. This hole leads to the mixing of oxygenated and deoxygenated blood, which leads to medical issues and arrhythmias. In some cases, ASD can be closed without open-heart surgery. In this procedure, a wire is inserted into the groin and into the blood vessel that leads to the heart. Two small devices are placed on the right and left side of the septum, which closes the hole. More commonly, open-heart surgery is used to repair ASD. In this case, stitching the hole together or covering it with a patch repairs the septum ([@b31-etm-0-0-3167],[@b32-etm-0-0-3167]).
Another similar CHD is a VSD, which is a hole between the left and right ventricle of the heart. This hole, once again, allows the mixing of the oxygenated and deoxygenated blood, which eventually leads to heart problems. In most cases, the VSDs close by age 1. The ones that do not close require repair. Open-heart surgery is performed when a child has a large VSD, a small one in a certain part of the ventricular septum, or a hole that may cause heart failure or inflammation ([@b33-etm-0-0-3167],[@b34-etm-0-0-3167]).
12.. CHD surgery: tetralogy of fallot repair
============================================
Tetralogy of fallot refers to a heart defect that involves four defects and leads to cyanosis ([@b35-etm-0-0-3167]). The infant with this type of CHD requires open-heart surgery that can be performed between the age of 6 months and 2 years. A shunt procedure may also be performed, which is useful in keeping oxygenated and deoxygenated blood separate. This is carried out when the child is unable to undergo open-heart surgery as placing a shunt occurs prior to performing open-heart surgery. The first defect that is repaired is the VSD, using a patch. Subsequently, the pulmonary valve is opened and the thickened muscle removed. In addition, a patch is placed on the right ventricle and the pulmonary artery improves blood flow to the lungs ([@b36-etm-0-0-3167],[@b37-etm-0-0-3167]).
13.. CHD surgery: transposition of the great vessels repair
===========================================================
Transposition of the great vessels, another CHD, occurs when instead of the aorta being located on the left side and the pulmonary artery on the right side, the sides for the two are switched ([@b38-etm-0-0-3167]). Since this needs to be resolved immediately, the open-heart surgery required is performed shortly after birth. Repair takes the form of an arterial switch, which involves the aorta and pulmonary artery being divided. The pulmonary artery and aorta are then connected to the ventricles to which they belong ([@b39-etm-0-0-3167]).
14.. CHD surgery: truncus arteriosus and tricuspid atresia repair
=================================================================
In truncus arteriosus, the aorta, coronary arteries and pulmonary artery emerge from a common trunk. Thus, repair of the truncus arteriosus can be simple or complex; however, each case requires open-heart surgery performed in the first few days of life. The arteries are separated from the aortic trunk and defects are subsequently repaired. This procedure may be accompanied with a VSD as well. A connection is then made between right ventricle and pulmonary arteries. Tricuspid atresia occurs when the tricuspid valve is deformed, narrow or absent. The symptoms of tricuspid atresia include newborns being blue, as they cannot get the blood to the lungs. This severely restricts blood flow to the lungs, causing an inability for the blood to gain oxygen. Initially, the infant may be given shunts to correct the defect and allow the blood to reach the lungs. However, the surgeon may have to repair or replace the tricuspid valve ([@b40-etm-0-0-3167],[@b41-etm-0-0-3167]).
15.. CHD surgery: TAPVR correction and hypoplastic left heart repair
====================================================================
Total anomalous pulmonary venous return (TAPVR) is a misconnection ([@b42-etm-0-0-3167]). Instead of the pulmonary veins bringing oxygenated blood to the left side of the heart, it is taken to the right side of the heart. This condition is repaired with open-heart surgery, which is carried out shortly after birth in extreme conditions up to a maximum of six months of age. The pulmonary veins are re-routed to the left side and any abnormal connections are closed ([@b43-etm-0-0-3167]).
When the left side of the heart is poorly developed, this leads to a severe heart defect, which if left untreated, leads to death. The hypoplastic left heart requires hypoplastic left heart repair ([@b44-etm-0-0-3167]). Infants with hypoplastic left hearts require a series of three heart operations. The first one is a complicated surgery performed in the first week of the baby\'s life when one blood vessel, which carries blood to lungs and the rest of the body, is created from pulmonary artery and aorta. The following operation is performed when the baby is aged 4--6 months and the third operation is performed a year later, i.e., three surgeries are required to correct the problem ([@b45-etm-0-0-3167]).
16.. Conclusion
===============
Critical congenital heart defects, when undiagnosed constitute a risk factor and have a 30% mortality rate if left untreated. Techniques for diagnosis including pulse oximetry, echocardiogram and physical examinations have really improved the detection rates for CHD and CCHD. Surgical procedures such as PDA ligation, coarctation of the aorta repair, ASD repair, VSD repair, tetralogy of fallot repair, transposition of the great vessels repair, truncus arteriosus repair, tricuspid atresia repair, TAPVR correction and hypoplastic left heart repair are performed to repair CHD, and have greatly improved the survival rate for infants born with CHD. New screening and new non-surgical methods are to be investigated to treat this condition as not all infants are in a position to undergo intensive surgery immediately following birth.

Northside Hospital - Avoiding overuse injuries in youth sport
Avoiding overuse injuries in youth sport
By Dr. Mark Sakr
Are high school and middle school athletes susceptible to different injuries than adults?
Absolutely. Growing athletes are still undergoing structural changes in their muscles and bones. As children and teenagers grow, their bones lengthen quicker than the muscles can adapt, often leading to tense and tight muscles or tendons when exercising a lot. Injuries to the growth plate can occur from the repetitive use, causing lingering pain and inflammation. (While adults don’t get these growth plate issues, they can develop similar overuse injuries called stress injuries.)
What causes growth-plate injuries?
Growth-plate injuries can occur from a few different issues. Direct trauma or injuries like falls or significant impacts on the ends of bones can cause fractures or avulsion injuries (essentially, a tear or detachment) at growth plates. Also, overuse and repetitive pulling on a bone by the tendon attachments of muscles can cause inflammation and pain at those sites.
How can growth-plate injuries be avoided?
Overuse growth-plate injuries can be avoided by performing appropriate and directed stretching of muscles that are frequently used in a particular sport. Leg and ankle stretches in runners and, similarly, elbow and shoulder stretches by overhead athletes can be very helpful.
How can parents or coaches tell when a young athlete is injured vs. simply not yet used to working certain muscles?
It can be very difficult to tell the difference between injuries and de-conditioning. Most injuries and pain from working out that don’t have a specific cause, such as a fall, will improve with rest. If a few days of rest and a lighter exercise load don’t help, or if the pain lingers into day-to-day activities, it’s worth getting the issue looked at by a health care provider. De-conditioning usually improves with each consistent workout, so if there’s a big break over the summer, or even for just a few weeks, ease back into workouts gradually.
Are there guidelines on how many miles a week are safe at certain ages?
There aren’t any well-established research studies regarding an exact mileage limit on young athletes. The answer to “how much is too much?” truly depends on each individual athlete’s training and experience, as well as on many other factors. However, injuries tend to be more common during peak growth spurts, and some are more likely to occur if underlying biomechanical problems are present. Make sure that endurance athletes are stretching regularly, and having their gait and technique evaluated for proper mechanics is a valuable tool, when available.

Reducing the stress of moving home
Many people talk about the stress of moving home. The time the whole process takes, the constant tidying up so that your property is presentable for viewings and losing out on your dream home are just some of the things that contribute to making what should be an exciting time a living nightmare. have put together a few simple tips to help make your move a lot easier...
Whatever you do try not to set a timescale. Your move will depend on many external factors and third parties, such as waiting for a suitable buyer to make an offer, solicitors paperwork and mortgage lenders. These and many other aspects of the move are out of your control. I've noticed over the years vendors who are used to having control of situations at work or at home often find moving more stressful, if this is you it’s advisable to acknowledge that this situation needs to be handled differently given the many external factors involved. Your move is likely to be long term (the average time in a property is 13 years), so aiming to move in before Christmas is not always realistic. You will have many more Christmases to come in your new home and if your sale completes in the first week of January is that going to be the end of the world? Probably not.
Think of your sale as a project which might take 3 months, 6 months or 12 and during that time you may experience some ups and downs. Relaxing timescale expectations will make a huge difference to your mindset and stress levels.
Invest in a good solicitor. I'll repeat that, invest in a good solicitor. If you search for a solicitor on the internet in my experience you will find large firms who have an outstanding sales team, a low charge and they seem like the dream ticket. Often the sales team are very easy to get hold of but when you instruct the solicitors to go ahead you find it hard to contact the representative who is dealing with your case, that is usually because they are buried in paperwork (some solicitors deal with upwards of 50 sales at one time) thanks to being high on Google rankings, and that slick sales team and low fee. You will want to be able to speak with your solicitor fairly regularly, so ask how many sales they are dealing with right now and also make a point of asking them how quickly they can get back to you (same day? 3 working days?)
Ask your estate agent to recommend a solicitor. It's likely that they work with a firm they are able to communicate with regularly and this will speed up the whole process. You will probably pay around £200-£300 more for a good, communicative solicitor compared with the internet search options. This is the best investment you will make (apart from your estate agent of course!!)
Be flexible as you can, give your agent a key so they can do short notice viewings, that viewing could well be your buyer. Sellers make the mistake of thinking that buyers will come back and view their property another day 'if they like it enough they will come back', no they won't, not always. Sometimes they will buy a house which isn't as good as yours, the house the could view that day that ticks nearly all their boxes. They will never know that yours was better for them, because they've seen another one and they've compromised on the south facing garden.
Once you have agreed a sale don't delay in returning your paperwork to your solicitor. Yes, it's mountainous and yes, you don’t know any of the answers, but do you best to get stuck into it and get it back to your solicitor within 2/3 days maximum. Time saved at this end of the transaction will be a huge gain.
OK, obviously you can't forget about the money completely, but try to rationalise it. It always intrigues me as an agent how generally speaking in the UK we are not big on negotiating, we don't haggle when we go to the shops to buy food, clothes or jewellery. But when it comes to property (and cars I guess) we become or try to become hardcore negotiators. If you are selling a property for £500,000 and someone makes you an offer of £475,000 think about this for a moment. If you were selling a suit on eBay for £50 and someone offered you £47.50 would you take it? If you were selling a sofa for £500 and were offered £475 would you take it? If you were selling a second hand car for £5000 and were offered £4750 would you take it? Chances are you would. I'm not saying you should just accept low offers, your agent should be working hard to negotiate you the best price, but try to think about what you are trying to achieve. It could be that you are trying to secure your dream home which your family will live in for the next 15-20 years, if you have to go up by £10,000 or drop by £10,000 to make this happen, be decisive and eradicate the stress think about how you'll feel once you've got your dream home.

For me these are the main factors to take into consideration mood when selling, if you can bear these in mind it will go a long way to helping your move to be exciting and not stressful!

The Jared Dillian Letter
Don’t Be Afraid of Paying Fees
The best way to start investing—or investing the right way—is with mutual funds.
A mutual fund is a financial vehicle that's made up of a pool of money, collected from many investors. Unlike stocks, these don't trade on an exchange. Instead, you buy them from an issuer.
They invest your cash and give you fractional shares. Each shareholder participates proportionally in the gains or losses of the fund.
What you really get is professional asset management from people with MBAs and CFAs whose goal is to produce capital gains for you.
Sounds good, right?
The Feeling Isn't Always "Mutual"
Unfortunately, mutual funds have been in decline for 20 years as exchange-traded funds have gained popularity. There are a couple of reasons for that.
The first is that ETFs are easier to buy and sell because they trade on an exchange.
That makes it easier to make bad decisions. You can check the action every five minutes on your broker's smartphone app. There's such a thing as too much information… having less of it can help you make good decisions.
The other reason that investors pick ETFs over mutual funds is that there are no "loads."
A lot of investors gravitate to no-load funds at companies like Vanguard, Fidelity, T. Rowe Price, and Janus. That means there is no sales charge when you buy.
And having the option to NOT pay fees puts some people right back in "bad decision" territory.
You Get What You Pay For
Let's say you invest $100,000 in a load mutual fund. You pay a $3,000 sales charge, so your initial investment is $97,000.
That load is not a bad thing. The longer you hold that fund, the more you amortize that sales charge over time. Over 10 years, that's 3/10 of a percent per year.
If you keep that money in, you have no additional sales charges. If you do take that money out, you have to pay again if you want to put that money back to work.
If you're going to hold a fund for at least 10 years—and you should—you're more likely to choose wisely in the first place.
In other word, loads are good because they keep you invested.
“Free” Will End Up Costing You More
Fees eat into your performance initially, yes. But they don't determine your performance in the long run.
Remember, when you pay that $3,000 fee, you get professional asset management in exchange for it. Anyone who works at a mutual fund company has to get a Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) designation. There's a lot of competition for these jobs, and capabilities don't come cheap.
Plus, higher fees tend to discourage the kind of stupid behavior you're seeing with stocks right now. With zero commissions, people are making riskier bets—and a lot more of them—that they wouldn't make if they had to pay $8 every time they wanted to buy or sell.
It's easier than ever to buy mutual funds. Simply go to the issuer's website, link up your bank account, tell them what you want to buy, and sit back and watch your returns compound.
Mutual funds offer a good starting place for any investor. They can give you exposure to things like stocks, bonds, gold, and real estate. How much should you allocate to those? This guide can help you get started.

Next: Experimental Results Up: Design and Evaluation of Previous: Scheduling Prefetches
Experimental Framework
To experiment with prefetching, we extend our base R4000 architecture (described previously in Section 1.1) as follows. We augment the instruction set to include a prefetch instruction that uses a base-plus-offset addressing format and is defined to not take any memory exceptions. Both levels of the cache are lockup-free[17] in the sense that multiple prefetches can be outstanding. The primary cache is checked in the cycle the prefetch instruction is executed. If the line is already in the cache, the prefetch is discarded. Otherwise, the prefetch is sent to a prefetch issue buffer, which is a structure that maintains the state of outstanding prefetches. For our study, we assume a rather aggressive design of a prefetch issue buffer that contains 16 entries. If the prefetch issue buffer is already full, the processor is stalled until there is an available entry. (Later, in Section 4.3, we compare this with an architecture where prefetches are simply dropped if the buffer is full.) The secondary cache is also checked before the prefetch goes to memory. We model contention for the memory bus by assuming a maximum pipelining rate of one access every 20 cycles. Once the prefetched line returns, it is placed in both levels of the cache hierarchy. Filling the primary cache requires 4 cycles of exclusive access to the cache tags-during this time, the processor cannot execute any loads or stores.
Since regular cache misses stall the processor, they are given priority over prefetch accesses both for the memory bus and the cache tags. We assume, however, that an ongoing prefetch access cannot be interrupted. As a result, a secondary cache miss may be delayed by as many as 20 cycles (memory pipeline occupancy time) when it tries to access memory. Similarly the processor may be stalled for up to 4 cycles (cache-tag busy time) when it executes a load or store. If a cache miss occurs for a line for which there is an outstanding prefetch waiting in the issue buffer, the miss is given immediate priority and the prefetch request is removed from the buffer. If the prefetch has already been issued to the memory system, any partial latency hiding that might have occurred is taken into account.
As we mentioned before in Section 1, the benchmarks evaluated in this paper are all scientific applications taken from the SPEC, SPLASH and NAS Parallel benchmark suites. For four of the benchmarks (MXM, CFFT2D, VPENTA and TOMCATV), we manually changed the alignment of some of the matrices to reduce the number of cache conflicts.
The prefetching algorithm has a few compile-time parameters, which we consistently set as follows: cache line size = 32 bytes, effective cache size = 500 bytes, and prefetch latency = 300 cycles. As discussed in Section 2.1.2, we choose an effective cache size to be a fraction of the actual size (8 Kbytes) as a first approximation to the effects of cache conflicts (we consider the effects of varying this parameter in Section 4.2). The prefetch latency indicates to the compiler how many cycles in advance it should try to prefetch a reference. The prefetch latency is larger than 75 cycles, the minimum miss-to-memory penalty, to account for bandwidth-related delays.

Welcome, my name is Jochem Hummel and I am a final year PhD student at the KIN research group at the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam.
My Research
My research focuses on understanding the strategic mechanisms and practices used by organizations in complex multi-actor collaborations to pursue broad goals related to digital innovation. My first priority lies with doing highly rigorous, qualitative, empirical research. For example, my dissertation research concerns a longitudinal study of a collaboration between “big science” and “big business: called Helix Nebula, where I analyze how large scientific institutes (CERN, EMBL, ESA) collaborate with commercial cloud computing organizations (Atos, T-Systems), and public infrastructure providers (EGI, GEANT), to develop a European scientific cloud computing infrastructure.
I am a passionate qualitative researcher (case study and ethnographic methods). I typically do process research, and through my interest in micro-level dynamics I also have knowledge of practice theory. Driven by my determination for methodological rigor I have adopted digital methods for qualitative data as a complementary analysis technique.
Research Interests
Complex multi-actor collaborations, science and technology studies, organizational pluralism, organizational resourcing, framing, new ways of organizing, open innovation
Digital innovation, big science, science-business collaborations, platforms and ecosystems
Qualitative methods (case study and ethnographic methods), digital methods for qualitative data (topic modelling, text analysis, sequence analysis, cluster analysis)
Teaching Interests

The Greens
The Reliability Test
Author: Jackson Janes
It’s two months before the German election on September 24, and the Green Party is struggling to gain traction. Recent polls project single-digit support, with few indications of improvement. Not too long ago, speculation about a government led by Angela Merkel with the Green Party as a coalition partner was not unusual. That option seems less likely now, particularly with an apparent resurgence of the Free Democratic Party (FDP). And a remake of a coalition between the Social Democrats (SPD) and the Greens is probably out of reach given the low polling figures of both parties at this point. Of course, that could change. While anything can happen in today’s volatile political environment, the Greens appear to be facing another legislative term in the opposition seats in Berlin.
However, the Greens are stronger than they look at the national level—a trend that has been particularly observable in the past decade. Today the Greens are represented in the parliaments of fourteen states and in governing coalitions in ten state governments. Baden-Württemberg has a popular Green minister-president. The Greens have also shown flexibility in political coalitions, aligning with both the Christian Democrats (CDU) and the SPD in state and local governments. That has a lot to do with the decentralized and divergent nature of political issues—voters in Schleswig-Holstein have different concerns than those in Bavaria—but it also has to do with the competencies of states (Länder) versus the federal government. Green Party candidates may find greater resonance at different levels of government. Still, in the past three national elections, the Greens have not been as successful as they were in the late 1990s and early 2000s, when they helped the SPD win twice and joined it in the governing coalition for seven years.
First emerging in 1980 as a party primarily focused on environmental issues, the Green Party’s agenda has widened to include a spectrum of domestic issues and foreign policy positions. Under the leadership of then foreign minister Joschka Fischer, the Greens broke with a pacifist position and were supportive of German intervention in the Balkan wars. More than a decade later, the Greens have taken tough positions against the Russian annexation of Crimea and its intervention in Ukraine. However, there remains a good deal of intra-party frictions over policy directions.
In some ways, the Greens have seen some their primary agenda adopted by the two larger political parties who have devoted more attention to environmental issues as well as other social topics, such as same sex marriage, education, support for family policies, and, more recently, refugee issues. That has left the Greens challenged to redefine the party profile in a political arena in which party affiliation is less coherent and reliable among voters than it was in previous decades.
As of now, the Greens are dangerously close to the 5 percent hurdle they pass to stay represented in the Bundestag. Recent state elections do not all bode well. On the one hand, the Greens were unable to stay in the state parliament of Saarland in its most recent election. They also lost their coalition with the Social Democrats in Germany’s largest state, North Rhine-Westphalia. On the other, they did better in Schleswig-Holstein and are now part of a three-way coalition in Kiel with the CDU and the FDP. While such a coalition may be a less likely outcome on September 24, it does pose a precedent that could work nationally. To do so, the Green Party, which has always been an internally fractious party, will have to secure the support of its base.
While the chancellor might prefer a coalition with only the FDP, a coalition also including the Greens might conceivably be attractive to cover a larger number of agenda items. One of them is going to have to be the sustainability of the European project and on that issue, it is possible that consensus could be forged. Another might be the further evolution of the so-called Energiewende toward more renewable energy sources. And a third might be the continuing effort to forge a strategic approach to Germany’s global responsibilities.
Should Merkel lose her current lead in the polls, another scenario might be a coalition of SPD/FDP/the Greens. But combining those choices together would be a combustible mixture. One very knotty problem connected with all of those scenarios is the distribution of federal ministries within such combinations. That would be extremely complicated in the competition for power.
The two leading candidates of the Greens—Cem Özdemir and Katrin Göring-Eckardt—are experienced politicians. They are both seen as centrists within the party ranks and able to reach out to multiple constituencies. Both aim to reach a high enough level in the elections to have the cards to negotiate a coalition, be it with Merkel or in a larger arrangement with the CDU/CSU and the FDP. Göring-Eckhardt grew up in East Germany and might be able to strengthen the base in that region. Özdemir is the son of an immigrant family and exemplifies the changing fabric of German society. He also has the skills to handle foreign policy agendas. But both need to appeal to a larger set of voters to bring the party back into government.
The Greens have been out of governing power in Berlin for twelve years. The leadership wants another opportunity. The shifting sands of the political arena could make it possible. But the party has to make clear to voters why it can help deliver what many voters want: reliability. Merkel has been able to take advantage of that need so far. If they are going to be players again, the Greens need to figure out how they can convey that same message.

\section{Product of Subset with Intersection/Equality does not Hold}
Tags: Product of Subset with Intersection
\begin{theorem}
Let $\struct {G, \circ}$ be a group.
Let $X, Y, Z \subseteq G$.
Let $X \circ Y$ denotes the subset product of $X$ and $Y$.
While it is the case that:
:$X \circ \paren {Y \cap Z} \subseteq \paren {X \circ Y} \cap \paren {X \circ Z}$
it is not necessarily the case that:
:$X \circ \paren {Y \cap Z} = \paren {X \circ Y} \cap \paren {X \circ Z}$
\end{theorem}
\begin{proof}
Proof by Counterexample:
Let $a \in G$ such that $a \ne a^{-1}$.
Let $X = \set {a, a^{-1} }, Y = \set a, Z = \set {a^{-1} }$.
Then:
:$X \circ \paren {Y \cap Z} = X \circ \O = \O$
:$\paren {X \circ Y} \cap \paren {X \circ Z} = \set {a^2, e} \cap \set {e, a^{-2} } \ne \O$
so:
:$X \circ \paren {Y \cap Z} \ne \paren {X \circ Y} \cap \paren {X \circ Z}$
{{qed}}

The current therapy for control of elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) or ocular hypertension which is believed to be a factor in the onset and progress of glaucoma is typically effected with a variety of topically applied agents which fall within four categories: .beta.-blockers, sympathomimetic agents, parasympatho-mimetic agents and cholinesterase inhibitors. The adjuvant oral administration of a carbonic anhydrase inhibitor (CAI) is practised when the above-described topical agent's side effects limits its use and/or it fails to achieve adequate IOP control. The orally active CAI's can exhibit serious side-effects such as anorexia, gastrointestinal upset and parasthesias. Therefore an intense and ongoing search has been mounted for a topically active CAI that would not exhibit such side effects due to the route of administration and inherent target organ specificity. This search has resulted in the discovery of a class of compounds by Baldwin et al (U.S. Pat. No. 4,797,413) of general formula: ##STR1## wherein R and R.sub.1 are lower alkyl, especially dorzolamide, wherein R is ethyl and R.sub.1 is methyl.
U.S. Pat. No. 4,797,413 discloses a process for preparing the racemic modification of the alkyl 3-(thien-2-ylthio)butyrate and its homologs. The prior art process comprises addition of the 2-thienyl-thiol (II) across the double bond of a substituted acrylic acid (IV) to yield the acid I: ##STR2## followed by synthesis of the final diastereomeric product, the isomers of which must be separated and each resolved to obtain the most active (S,S)-enantiomer. The isomer separations result in an automatic loss of the bulk of the chemical product.
U.S. Pat. No. 4,968,815 discloses a process for preparing the acid of structural formula I: ##STR3## which comprises treating a nucleophile of structure II with a compound of structure III as shown: ##STR4## wherein the R groups are as hereinafter defined. U.S. Pat. No. 4,968,814 and Blacklock et al., J. Org. Chem., 1993, 58, 1672-1679 also teaches a process for preparing the chiral intermediate formula I. However, these prior an processes involve many steps, are expensive and very time consuming.
It is therefore an object of this invention to provide a process for the synthesis of acid (I) for the synthesis of a chiral final product (V), dorzolamide, more economically than previously possible. | mini_pile | {'original_id': '490ba6a217764e9f801600ceb064d4229af042cb1598b363757fa387d0f77c67'} |
reducing "Crew-caused"
approach and landing
Pilot-in-charge Monitored Approach
"First Officers' Minima" - Cross-checking the visual reference and land/go-around decision.
It has been claimed that one of the disadvantages of the PicMA procedure is that "there is no crosscheck of the visual cues and the land /go-around decision, which is done in traditional PF/PM procedures". This is discussed at some length in the section on Objections, but it becomes a significant issue during PICUS sectors.
When the F/O is "pilot flying" using traditional procedures, Captains will inevitably have a strong desire to confirm that indeed the F/O has made the correct decision. This is from a safety viewpoint if the decision is to land, and to avoid an "unnecessary" and potentially costly go-around from a commercial viewpoint.
Many operators whose crews routinely alternate sectors apply an additional restriction to F/Os' activities for PICUS flying - one might imagine this is part of the "method of supervision acceptable to the authority" which is part of the PICUS definition. For example, some state that only a Captain may make the decision to abandon a takeoff, and others impose different crosswind, visibility or other limitations, and PicMA procedures are no different in that respect.
Many operators currently using "monitored approach" procedures do so by specifying that monitored approaches are required below certain weather criteria, usually quite poor visibility and cloudbase, and in these conditions, it is specifically the Captain that must make the landing. Consequently, these operators' F/Os do not routinely experience taking control at a late stage in a flight, as it only occurs on the relatively rare occasions when the Captain must make the landing.
To expand the use of monitored approaches to all operations in IMC and at night, as the CFIT Training Aid recommends, it makes sense to look at this slightly differently. It can then cease to be a "very occasional, severe weather" procedure used when Captains must make the landing, but be used on F/O sectors ("PICUS") sectors as well.
During PICUS sectors, the "land or go-around decision is in principle no different to any other in that the Captain has an obligation to "supervise" it and confirm that indeed the F/O has made the correct decision.
The logical way to deal with this must recognise that a Captain may and indeed should want to cross-check, in order to if necessary over-ride or reverse a First Officer's judgment, even though the opposite - a F/O reversing Captain's visual assessment - is not possible.
That is what the Captain's command authority actually means - the Captain should have the final say in what happens. To reconcile these conflicting requirements and make it possible for the Captain to over-ride the F/O's decision, without the reverse being true, it's necessary to provide the Captain with an extra safety margin.
The basic problem is that the legal minima (DH/RVR combination) may not guarantee that "the pilot" will actually have sufficient visual cues to judge the flight path, in which case it certainly won't allow a subsequent confirmation.
Applying the PicMA procedure in an PICUS sector, based on the F/O's judgment of the visual cues, the F/O has two possible decisions - "Land" or "Go-around".
Training emphasises that a "Go-around" call by either pilot should normally result in almost automatic reactions to carry it out, in particular application of high thrust by the PF. Nearly all pilots would rightly consider it dangerous to reverse a go-around call-out, whatever the reason, and many operators specifically state that once initiated, a go-around must always be completed.
So although an "unnecessary" go-around by an F/O is undesirable from a commercial viewpoint, from a safety perspective, the only decision relevant decision that a Captain would want to be able to reverse would be to continue to land. If the F/O decides "Land", the approach status quo is maintained. Action can then be taken if the Captain considers it unsafe, based on the visual cues, and over-rides it with a go-around call.
By definition, the lowest altitude that a go-around can safely be initiated is the DH. As a consequence, it is inevitable that the F/O must make his or her decision earlier than that if the Captain is to have a legitimate opportunity to validate it. In other words, the F/O must make his or her decision above the DH published for the approach itself, e.g. if DH is 200ft (Cat. 1), the F/O should use perhaps 250ft.
But at 250ft in homogeneous fog with typical Cat 1 RVR minima of 550m/1800ft, the F/O's chance of seeing sufficient to make a "land" judgement are small, and go-around decision is very likely.
The numbers chosen need to achieve three things
1. a satisfactory approach success rate that minimises unnecessary go-arounds
2. not exposing passengers and crew to entirely unnecessary risks
3. not leaving Captains with a responsibility that they cannot actually carry out.
To do this, a number of criteria need to be met.
• The F/O will be able to have sufficient visual reference to assess the flight path in both planes. Horizontal is easy, but as seen in the section on low visibility transition, the vertical needs path needs sight of the aiming point.
• The F/O will have an extremely high probability of seeing the aiming point several seconds before the aircraft reaches the DH, so that the decision will be "land".
• The Captain will have a very easy task in temporarily relinquishing instrument monitoring to make his own assessment of the cues, prior to reaching the actual DH.
This can be achieved by having higher minimum visibility criteria for First Officers' landings, such that there can be a very high expectation that the touchdown point will be visible well before DH. For typical ILS approaches, an RVR of 1500-1800m (5000ft - 1 mile) should provide this, and fog of this density is unlikely to produce the dangerous reduction of visual segment that occurs with the most deceptive shallow fogs.
Even in operators that ostensibly do not have formal criteria for First Officers landings, in practical terms it is likely that such a system is imposed informally by Captains' discretion in deciding which sectors to assign to F/Os and which to operate themselves.
It seems unlikely that on encountering a new and inexperienced F/O for the first time, at the start of duty period that is likely to involve one landing in difficult conditions and one in benign conditions, the Captain will assign the difficult one to the inexperienced F/O. The criteria involved in making that decision will probably include the likely visibility at each destination.
Formalising such criteria even as guidance to Captains may prove unpopular at first in some operators. Going from "our F/Os operate to the same minima as our Captains" to "F/Os don't land in such severe conditions as Captains" could be perceived as indicating a lack of confidence in the F/Os' abilities.
But imposing higher minima for First Officers than for Captains is not a reflection on the First Officers skills - it is simply a recognition that the visual judgement cannot be properly supervised in the most limiting conditions.
It also recognises that from the passengers' point of view, the most experienced and senior pilot will be performing the most challenging tasks, and junior pilots are not "practicing hazardous manouevres" on the paying public. Where operators want to make sure that F/Os have some experience of critical visibility judgement prior to upgrade to Captain, the proper place for this is by training in the flight simulator, where the hazards can be safely demonstrated. | dclm_baseline | {'bff_contained_ngram_count_before_dedupe': '1', 'language_id_whole_page_fasttext': "{'en': 0.9470012187957764}", 'metadata': "{'Content-Length': '29180', 'Content-Type': 'application/http; msgtype=response', 'WARC-Block-Digest': 'sha1:AAPYJGAO5ZX3R4OJKADIXLHEDWBUSBFF', 'WARC-Concurrent-To': '<urn:uuid:e33a6572-d6b8-41c2-b7a5-f02799f92ac4>', 'WARC-Date': datetime.datetime(2020, 9, 27, 9, 17, 44), 'WARC-IP-Address': '91.103.219.227', 'WARC-Identified-Payload-Type': 'application/xhtml+xml', 'WARC-Payload-Digest': 'sha1:5VPRKED3QT476B7EVEPQGJ56QDGVF3MZ', 'WARC-Record-ID': '<urn:uuid:23ab7c88-8150-41a1-9a74-09d63b201ab2>', 'WARC-Target-URI': 'http://www.picma.info/?q=content/first-officer-minima', 'WARC-Type': 'response', 'WARC-Warcinfo-ID': '<urn:uuid:5da6b705-05b0-47d7-ba85-0be661fe4cb3>', 'WARC-Truncated': None}", 'previous_word_count': '1217', 'url': 'http://www.picma.info/?q=content/first-officer-minima', 'warcinfo': 'isPartOf: CC-MAIN-2020-40\r\npublisher: Common Crawl\r\ndescription: Wide crawl of the web for September 2020\r\noperator: Common Crawl Admin (info@commoncrawl.org)\r\nhostname: ip-10-67-67-103.ec2.internal\r\nsoftware: Apache Nutch 1.17 (modified, https://github.com/commoncrawl/nutch/)\r\nrobots: checked via crawler-commons 1.2-SNAPSHOT (https://github.com/crawler-commons/crawler-commons)\r\nformat: WARC File Format 1.1\r\nconformsTo: http://iipc.github.io/warc-specifications/specifications/warc-format/warc-1.1/', 'fasttext_openhermes_reddit_eli5_vs_rw_v2_bigram_200k_train_prob': '0.06382346153259277', 'original_id': 'db46ec5187ec122e74048810eac5ac2021d518ba84f90d69f2917f229c7cc592'} |

Jane O'Meara Sanders
Citing an unnamed source, Vermont Republican Party vice chair Brady Toensing alleged in a federal complaint last year that Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) "pressured" a bank to approve a loan application submitted by the senator's wife, Jane O'Meara Sanders.But in an interview withFriday, that source — Vermont House Minority Leader Don Turner (R-Milton) — disputed Toensing's characterization of their May 2016 conversation and called into question Toensing's allegation. Turner described the information he provided Toensing as nothing more than "hearsay" — and hardly evidence of wrongdoing."There's no way I'd file a complaint or anything like that," said the Milton Republican, who has not previously been identified as Toensing's source.Turner's remarks appear to undercut the most explosive charge that Toensing, a Charlotte attorney, has leveled in recent years at the senator and his wife. But they don't directly contradict another of the Republican official's allegations: that O'Meara Sanders committed federal loan fraud by overstating fundraising commitments when applying for a $6.5 million loan on behalf of Burlington College, the now-defunct school she once ran. As Seven Days has previously reported , the latter charge has prompted an extensive federal investigation that former college officials believe is focused on O'Meara Sanders and her 2010 loan application to People's United Bank. No evidence has surfaced suggesting that the feds are investigating the senator himself. He and his wife have denied any wrongdoing.Jeff Weaver, a longtime Sanders confidante who managed the senator's 2016 presidential campaign, said Friday that the discrepancy between Turner's and Toensing's accounts undermines the latter's credibility. Weaver said he was speaking for the family — not for Sanders' Senate office or reelection campaign."This revelation proves what most already knew. Brady Toensing, who was Trump's Vermont campaign manager, is a right-wing hack trying to impugn Bernie Sanders with no foundation whatsoever," Weaver said, referring to Toensing's service as President Donald Trump's 2016 state campaign chair. "He's the kind of guy that if he told you it wasn't raining, you'd look outside to see if you needed an umbrella."But Toensing, who confirmed toFriday that Turner was his source, declined to retract his charge."I stand by what I have said based on what I was told," he said. "It is time for the senator himself to end his silence and answer questions about what contact his office had with the bank about this loan."After accusing O'Meara Sanders of loan fraud in a January 2016 complaint to the U.S. attorney for Vermont and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, Toensing followed up that May with a second letter to the feds "As a result of my complaint, I was recently approached and informed that Senator Bernard Sanders' office improperly pressured People's United Bank to approve the loan application submitted by the Senator's wife, Ms. Sanders," Toensing wrote in his May 2016 missive. "Improper pressure by a United States Senator is a serious ethical violation."For the first time Friday, Toensing elaborated on the conversation that prompted his second letter."I was approached by Don Turner on Saturday, May 21, 2016 and told that a former People's Bank executive had told him that he was upset about the Burlington College loan because Senator Sanders' office had pressured the bank to make the loan and he felt it was improper," Toensing toldin a written statement. "I later asked Mr. Turner for more detail about the allegations. He explained that he was at a lunch with three bankers and the former People's Bank executive told the whole table about the pressure from the Senator's office and that the bank was told to 'make it happen.'"Turner confirmed tothat the subject came up during a meal he shared with three bankers at Montpelier's NECI on Main, but he denied that any of his lunch companions had disclosed firsthand knowledge of the loan — nor the senator's potential involvement."They said that they were aware or had heard that Bernie's office had helped get that loan — and that was it," said Turner. "It was just a hearsay, general conversation."Turner said he could not remember the date of the lunch nor the identity of the banker who suggested that the senator had acted improperly, but he said that person was not involved with the Burlington College loan and was not purporting to share firsthand information."I have never said I had any knowledge or evidence or anything," said Turner, adding that he has not been contacted by federal investigators.Daniel Johnson, a senior vice president for commercial lending at People's United, said Friday that he remembered dining with Turner and NBT Bank commercial banking manager Rob Roy in Montpelier, but he couldn't recall what they discussed. He declined to reveal the identity of the fourth person at the table."We got together. It was lunch. That's all," Johnson said. "I don't remember our conversation, frankly, what it was about. It was just light, general stuff."Johnson did not join People's United until October 2014 — years after the bank loaned Burlington College $6.5 million to buy a new campus on North Avenue. Roy could not be reached for comment Friday.Turner confirmed that he later mentioned the lunch to Toensing, but he claimed he was unaware until Friday that he had been the source of the federal complaint. Whenread a portion of it to the House minority leader, Turner said Toensing had not accurately described their May 2016 exchange."The statement you read to me was a lot more pointed than anything I said based on a conversation, I can tell you that," Turner said.In Toensing's written comments Friday, he seemed to contradict Turner's assertion that the legislator did not recall the name of the banker who allegedly shared the information about the senator."At one point, I asked Mr. Turner if he would reconsider giving me the banker's name and he said he would get back to me," Toensing said. "When he got back to me he said he had checked with the other two people at the lunch and said he did not feel comfortable sharing the executive's name because he did not want to get him involved."While the Vermont press corps has been covering the allegations against O'Meara Sanders for years , the story only caught fire in the national media last week, after published a story summarizing previous reporting . That prompted multiple cable news stations to query the senator about it."That is an absolute lie," Sanders told MSNBC's Chris Hayes on Thursday, referring to Toensing's charge that he pressured People's United to approve the loan.Weaver, who is serving as Sanders' spokesman on the matter, seized on Turner's remarks to dismiss Toensing and his allegations."What's sad is that his repeated baseless, politically motivated attacks against people like Bernie Sanders, Jane Sanders, former Vermont Attorney General Bill Sorrell, state Senator Chris Pearson, Bernie's presidential campaign and others all come at a huge cost to taxpayers because of all the time spent by government officials looking into them," Weaver said, referring to targets of Toensing's previous complaints. "Every time Brady Toensing tries to land a low blow with one of his political smears it's really hardworking taxpayers who take it in the gut." | mini_pile | {'original_id': '55ae43af66f9114958c076a6305e41feecd2e0196e170e42f6305ada2b3889b5'} |

1821 ஆம் ஆண்டில், செருமானிய இயற்பியலாளர் தாமசு யொகான் சீபெக்கு, இரண்டு வேறுபட்ட உலோகங்களால் ஆன சுற்றுக்கு அருகில் வைக்கப்பட்டிருந்த ஒரு காந்த ஊசி வேறுபட்ட உலோகச் சந்திப்புகளில் ஒன்றை சூடாக்கும்போது திசைதிருப்பப்பட்டதைக் கண்டுபிடித்தார். அந்த நேரத்தில், சீபெக் இந்த விளைவை வெப்பக் காந்தவியல் என்று இவ்விளைவைக் குறிப்பிட்டார். அவர் கவனித்த காந்தப்புலம் பின்னர் வெப்ப-மின் மின்னோட்டம் காரணமாகக் காட்டப்பட்டது. நடைமுறைப் பயன்பாட்டில், இரண்டு வெவ்வேறு வகையான கம்பிகளின் ஒரு சந்திப்பில் உருவாக்கப்படும் மின்னழுத்தம் மிகவும் அதிக மற்றும் குறைந்த வெப்பநிலையில் வெப்பநிலையை அளவிடப் பயன்படும் என்பதால் இவ்விளைவு ஆர்வத்தைத் தூண்டியது. மின்னழுத்தத்தின் அளவு பயன்படுத்தப்படும் கம்பி வகைகளைப் பொறுத்தது. பொதுவாக, மின்னழுத்தம் மைக்ரோவோல்ட் வரம்பில் உள்ளது, இதனால் பயன்படுத்தக்கூடிய அளவீட்டைப் பெற இவ்விளைவைக் கவனமாகப் பயன்படுத்த வேண்டும். மின்னோட்டம் மிகக் குறைவாக இருந்தாலும், ஒரு வெப்பவிணை சந்திப்பின் மூலம் மின்சாரத்தை உருவாக்க முடியும். வெப்பமின்னடுக்கு போன்ற பல வெப்பவிணைகளைப் பயன்படுத்தி மின் உற்பத்தி செய்வது பரவலான பயன்பாட்டில் உள்ளது.

உலோகக் கலப்புகளின் சில சேர்க்கைகள் தொழிற்துறைத் தரங்களாக பிரபலமாகியுள்ளன. இக்கலவையின் தேர்வு செலவு, கிடைக்கும் தன்மை, வசதி, உருகுநிலை, வேதிப் பண்புகள், நிலைத்தன்மை மற்றும் வெளியீடு ஆகியவற்றால் நிர்ணயிக்கப்படுகிறது. வெவ்வேறு பயன்பாடுகளுக்கு வெவ்வேறு வகைகள் மிகவும் பொருத்தமானவை. அவை பொதுவாக வெப்பநிலை வரம்பு மற்றும் தேவையான உணர்திறன் அடிப்படையில் தேர்ந்தெடுக்கப்படுகின்றன. குறைந்த உணர்திறன் கொண்ட வெப்ப இணைகள் (பி, ஆர், எஸ் வகைகள்) அதற்கேற்ப குறைந்த தெளிவுத்திறனைக் கொண்டுள்ளன. மற்ற தேர்வு அளவுகோல்களில் வெப்ப இணைப் பொருளின் வேதியியல் செயலற்ற தன்மை மற்றும் அது காந்தத்தன்மை கொண்டதா இல்லையா என்பதும் அடங்கும். சாதாரண வெப்ப இணை வகைகள் நேர் மின்முனையுடன் கூடியவை முதலிலும் (), அதைத் தொடர்ந்து எதிர் மின்முனையுடனும் கீழே பட்டியலிடப்பட்டுள்ளன.
நிக்கல்-கப்புலோக வெப்ப இணைகள்
ஈ-வகை
ஈ-வகை (E-type) (குரோமெல்–கான்ஸ்டான்டன்) என்பது அதிக வெளியீட்டுத்திறனைக் (68 µV/°C) கொண்டிருப்பதால், இது கடுங்குளிரியல் பயன்பாடுகளுக்கு மிகவும் ஏற்றதாக உள்ளது. அத்துடன், இது காந்தத்தன்மை அற்றது.
பரந்த வரம்பு −270 °C முதல் +740 °C
குறுகிய வரம்பு −110 °C முதல் +140 °C
ஜே-வகை
ஜே-வகை (J-type) (இரும்பு–கான்ஸ்டான்டன்) என்பது கே-வகையை விடக் கட்டுப்பாடான வரம்பையும் (−40 °C to +750 °C), அதேவேளை அதிக உணர்திறனையும் (50 µV/°C) கொண்டுள்ளது. இரும்பின் கியூரி வெப்பநிலை (770 °C) அதனுடைய பண்புகளில் ஒரு சீரான மாற்றத்தை ஏற்படுத்துகிறது, இதுவே உயர் வெப்பநிலை வரம்பைத் தீர்மானிக்கிறது. ஐரோப்பிய/செருமானிய எல்-வகை என்பது ஜே-வகையின் மாற்றீடாகும்.
கே-வகை
கே-வகை (Type K) (குரோமெல்–அலுமெல்) என்பது பொதுவாகப் பயன்படுத்தப்படும் வெப்ப இணை. இதன் உணர்திறன் ஏறத்தாழ 41 µV/°C ஆகும். இது மலிவானதும், −200 °C முதல் +1350 °C (−330 °F முதல் +2460 °F) வரம்பில் பல வகைகளில் கிடைக்கக்கூடியதாகும். இவ்வகை தற்போது இருப்பது போன்று உலோகவியல் அதிகம் முன்னேறாத காலகட்டத்தில் பரிந்துரைக்கப்பட்டதாகும், இதனால் வெவ்வேறு மாதிரிகளில் இவற்றின் குணநலன்கள் மாறக்கூடும். இவற்றில் அடங்கியுள்ள உலோகங்களில் ஒன்றான நிக்கல் காந்தத்தன்மை கொண்டது, காந்தத்தன்மை கொண்ட பொருட்களினால், வெப்ப இணை உருவாக்கப்படும்போது, அவற்றின் வெளியீட்டு மின்னழுத்தத்தில் கியூரி வெப்பநிலையில் (கே-வகைகளுக்கு 354 °C) திடீரென்று ஒரு வேறுபாட்டைத் தருகிறது.
என்-வகை
N வகை (நிக்ரோசில்–நிசில்) (நிக்கல்-குரோமியம்-சிலிக்கான்/நிக்கல்-சிலிக்கான்) வெப்பமின் இரட்டைகள் உயர்வெப்பநிலைகளுக்கு மிகவும் ஏற்றவையாக உள்ளன. 1200 °C ஐ விட அதிகமான வெப்பநிலைகளில் இவற்றின் நிலைப்புத்தன்மை மற்றும் உயர் வெப்பநிலை ஆக்சிஜனேற்றத்தை தாக்குப்பிடிக்கும் தன்மை இதனை உயர் வெப்பநிலைகளுக்கு உகந்ததாக்குகிறது. இதன் உணர்திறன் 900 °C இல் சுமார் 39 µV/°C ஆகும். இது K வகையை விட சற்றுக்குறைவானது. ஒரு மேம்பட்ட கே வகையாக வடிவமைக்கப்படும் இது அதிக பிரபலத்தை அடைந்து வருகிறது.
பிளாட்டினம் வகைகள் பி, ஆர் மற்றும் எஸ்
B, R, மற்றும் S வகை வெப்பமின் இரட்டைகள் பிளாட்டினம் அல்லது ஒரு பிளாட்டினம்–ரோடியம் உலோகக்கலவையை ஒவ்வொரு கடத்திக்கும் பயன்படுத்துகின்றன. இவையே மிகவும் நிலைப்புத்தன்மை வாய்ந்த வெப்பமின் இரட்டைகளாக உள்ளன. ஆனால் அவை பிற வகைகளை விட குறைவான உணர்திறனைக் கொண்டுள்ளன. உணர்திறனானது சுமார் 10 µV/°C ஆக இருக்கிறது. B, R, மற்றும் S வகை வெப்பமின் இரட்டைகள் உயர் வெப்பநிலை அளவீடுகளுக்கு மட்டுமே பயன்படுத்தப்படுகின்றன, இதன் காரணம் இவற்றின் அதிகமான விலையும் குறைவான உணர்திறனுமாகும்.
பி
B வகை தெர்மோகப்பிள்கள் ஒவ்வொரு கடத்திக்கும் பிளாட்டினம்-ரோடியம் உலோகக்கலவையைப் பயன்படுத்துகின்றன. ஒரு கடத்தியில் 30% ரோடியம் இருக்கிறது, அதேநேரத்தில் மற்ற கடத்தியில் 6% ரோடியம் இருக்கிறது. இந்த தெர்மோகப்பிள்கள் 1800 °C வரை அளவிட பொருத்தமானவையாக இருக்கின்றன. பி வகை தெர்மோகப்பிள்கள் 0 °C முதல் 42 °C வரையில் ஒரே மாதிரியான வெளியீட்டையே தருகின்றன. இதனால் அவற்றை 50 °C க்கு குறைவாக பயன்படுத்த இயலாது.
ஆர்
R வகை தெர்மோகப்பிள்கள் 13% ரோடியம் கலந்த பிளாட்டினம்-ரோடியம் உலோகக்கலவையை ஒரு கடத்திக்கும் மற்றொரு கடத்திக்கு சுத்தமான பிளாட்டினத்தையும் பயன்படுதி உருவாக்கப்படுகிறது. R வகை தெர்மோகப்பிள்கள் 1600 °C வரைப் பயன்படுத்தப்படுகின்றன.
எஸ்
S வகை தெர்மோகப்பிள்கள் 90% பிளாட்டினம் மற்றும் 10% ரோடியம் ஆகியவற்றால் ஆன ஒரு கம்பியையும் (நேர்மின் அல்லது "+" கம்பி) மற்றும் 100% பிளாட்டினத்தால் ஆன மற்றொரு கம்பியையும் கொண்டு (எதிர்மின் அல்லது "-" கம்பி) உருவாக்கப்படுகிறது. R வகையைப் போன்றே, S வகை மின்னிரட்டைகளும் 1600 °C வரைப் பயன்படுத்தப்படுகின்றன. குறிப்பாக, S வகையானது, தங்கத்தின் உருகு வெப்பநிலையைக் (1064.43 °C) கணக்கிடுதல் போன்றவற்றுக்கான தரநிலையாகப் பயன்படுத்தப்படுகிறது.
டி
T வகை (தாமிரம்–கான்ஸ்டான்டன்) மின்னிரட்டைள் −200 முதல் 350 °C வரம்புக்குள் அளவீடுகள் செய்ய ஏற்றவை. இது பெரும்பாலும் வேறுபாடு அறியும் அளவீடுகளுக்கு மட்டுமே பயன்படுத்தப்படுகிறது, ஏனெனில் தாமிரக் கம்பி மட்டுமே சோதனை முனைகளைத் தொடும். இரண்டு கடத்திகளுமே காந்தத்தன்மை இல்லாதவைகள் என்பதால், கியூரி வெப்பநிலை என்று எதுவும் இல்லை, எனவே பண்புகளில் சடுதியான மாற்றங்கள் ஏதுமில்லை. T வகை தெர்மோகப்பிள்களின் உணர்திறன் சுமார் 43 µV/°C.
சி
சி வகை (டங்ஸ்டன் 5% ரினியம் – டங்ஸ்டன் 26% ரினியம்) மின்னிரட்டைகள் 0 °C முதல் 2320 °C வரை அளவீடுகள் செய்ய உகந்தது. இந்த மின்னிரட்டைகளானது மிக அதிக வெப்பநிலைகளில் இருக்கும் வெற்றிட உலைகளுக்கு மிகவும் ஏற்றது. 260 °C க்கு மேற்பட்ட வெப்பநிலைகளில் இதை ஆக்ஸிஜன் வாயுவின் முன்னிலையில் கண்டிப்பாக பயன்படுத்தக்கூடாது
எம்
எம் வகை மின்னிரட்டைகள் ஒவ்வொரு கம்பியிலும் ஒரு நிக்கல் உலோகக்கலவையைப் பயன்படுத்துகின்றது. நேர்மின் கம்பியானது 18% மாலிப்டினமும் எதிர்மின் கம்பியானது 0.8% கோபால்டையும் கொண்டிருக்கும். சி வகையைப் போன்றே அதே காரணத்திற்காக இந்த வெப்பமின்னிரட்டைகளும் வெற்றிட உலைகளில் பயன்படுத்தப்படுகின்றன. உயர்ந்தபட்ச வெப்பநிலையாக 1400 °C வரை இதில் அளவிடலாம். மற்ற வகைகளை விடவும் இது மிகவும் குறைவாகவே பயன்படுத்தப்படுகிறது.
க்ரோமல்-தங்கம்/இரும்பு
க்ரோமல்-தங்கம்/இரும்பு வெப்பமின்னிரட்டைகளில், நேர்மின் முனை கம்பியானது க்ரோமலாகவும் எதிர்மின்முனை கம்பியானது, தங்கத்துடன் சிறிய அளவு (0.03–0.15 அணுக்கள்) இரும்பு கொண்டதாகவும் பயன்படுத்தப்படுகிறது. இதனை கடுங்குளிர் முறை பயன்பாடுகளுக்கு பயன்படுத்தலாம் (1.2–300 K மற்றும் சிலநேரங்களில் 600 K வரை). உணர்திறனும், வெப்பநிலை வரம்பும் இரும்பின் சதவீதத்தைச் சார்ந்துள்ளது. இதனுடைய மிகக்குறைந்த உணர்திறனானது 15 µV/K அளவுக்கு குறைந்த வெப்பநிலைகளில் உள்ள. மேலும் பயன்படுத்தத்தக்க வெப்பநிலைகள் 1.2 மற்றும் 4.2 K ஆகியவற்றுக்கு இடையே இருக்கின்றது.
மின் திறன் உற்பத்தி
தெர்மோகப்பிளானது மின்னோட்டத்தை உருவாக்கக்கூடும், அதாவது கூடுதலாக மின்சுற்றுகள் அல்லது மின் திறன் மூலங்கள் ஏதுமின்றி சில செயல்களில் நேரடியாகவே இந்த மின்னோட்டத்தைப் பயன்படுத்த முடியும். எடுத்துக்காட்டாக, வெப்பநிலை மாறுபாடு ஏற்படும்போது, ஒரு தெர்மோகப்பிளிலிருந்து உருவாகும் திறனின் மூலம் ஒரு வால்வை செயல்படுத்த முடியும். ஒரு வெப்ப மின்னிரட்டையில் உருவாகும் மின் ஆற்றலானது அதனுடைய வெப்ப சந்தியின் பக்கத்தில் உள்ள வெப்ப ஆற்றலில் இருந்து மாற்றிப் பெறப்படுகிறது. மின்னழுத்தத்தைத் தொடர்ந்து பராமரிக்க அந்த வெப்ப ஆற்றல் தொடர்ந்து செலுத்தப்பட வேண்டும். தொடர்ந்து வெப்பம் இருப்பது அவசியமாகும், ஏனெனில் தெர்மோகப்பிளில் பாயும் மின்னோட்டத்தினால், வெப்பமான பகுதி குளிர்வடையவும், குளிர்ந்த பகுதி வெப்பமடையவும் கூடும் ( பெல்டியர் விளைவு).
தொடர்ச்சியாக தெர்மோகப்பிள்களை ஒன்றிணைத்து தெர்மோபைல் ஒன்றை வடிவமைக்கலாம், இதில் எல்லா வெப்ப சந்திகளும் உயர் வெப்பநிலைக்கும், எல்லா குளிர்ந்த சந்திகளும் குறைவான வெப்பநிலைக்கும் உட்படுத்தப்படும். இதன் வெளியீடானது, ஒவ்வொரு சந்திக்கும் இடைப்பட்ட மின்னழுத்தங்களின் கூட்டுத்தொகையாகும், இதனால் பெரிய மின்னழுத்தமும் ஆற்றல் வெளியீடும் கிடைக்கிறது. மிக அதிக அணுஎண்களைக் கொண்ட தனிமங்களின் கதிரியக்க சிதைவை வெப்ப மூலமாக கொண்டு, இந்த அமைப்பானது, சூரியனிலிருந்து மிக தொலைவில் உள்ள இடங்களுக்கு விண்வெளி ஆராய்ச்சிக்கு செல்லும் விண்கலங்களில், சூரிய ஆற்றலைப் பயன்படுத்துவதற்கு பயன்படுத்தப்படுகிறது.
தரங்கள்
வெப்பமின் இரட்டை கம்பிகள் பல வேறுபட்ட உலோகவியல் கலவைகளாக கிடைக்கின்றன, பொதுவாக அவை துல்லியம் மற்றும் விலை ஆகியவற்றின் இறங்குமுக வரிசையில் கிடைக்கின்றன: மேலும் பிழைகளின் வரம்பு, தரம் மற்றும் நீட்டிப்புகள் ஆகியவற்றைச் சார்ந்தும் உள்ளன.
நீட்டிப்பு கம்பி
நீட்டிப்பு தர கம்பிகள் உயர்தர வெப்பமின் இரட்டை கம்பிகளின் அதே உலோகங்களைப் பயன்படுத்தி உருவாக்கப்படுகின்றன. இவை அளவிடும் கருவியை சிறிது தொலைவிற்கு அப்பால் வைத்து அளவிட உதவுகின்றன. இந்த இணைப்பில் வேறு உலோகங்களைச் சேர்ப்பதால், தேவையற்ற மின்னழுத்தம் உருவாக்கப்படுகிறது. ஆனால் நீட்டிப்பு கம்பிகளுக்கான இணைப்புகள், அதே உலோகங்களால் உருவாவதால் மின்னழுத்தத்தை உருவாக்குவதில்லை. ஆனால் பிளாட்டினம் தெர்மோகப்பிள்களில் நீட்டிப்பு கம்பியானது தாமிர உலோகக்கலவையாகும். ஏனெனில் பிளாட்டினத்தின் மூலம் நீட்டிப்பு கம்பிகளை உருவாக்க மிகவும் அதிகமாக செலவாகும். பயன்படுத்தப்படும் நீட்டிப்புக் கம்பியானது வெப்பமின் இரட்டை போன்றே மின்விசையின் (EMF) வெப்ப குணத்தைக் கொண்டிருக்கும், ஆனால் இவை வெப்பநிலையின் மிகக் குறைந்த வரம்பிற்கே இவ்வாறு செயல்படும்; இதனால் செலவு கணிசமான அளவு குறைகிறது.
வெப்பநிலை அளவிடும் கருவியானது, வெப்பமின் இரட்டையிடமிருந்து ஏதேனும் மின்னோட்டத்தை இழுக்காமல் இருக்க, அதிக மின்மறுப்புத் திறனைக் கொண்டிருக்க வேண்டும், அதனால் கம்பிக்கு இடையே மின் தடுப்பு மின்னழுத்தம் தோன்றும். தெர்மோகப்பிளின் நீளத்தில் ஏதேனும் ஒரு இடத்தில் உலோகம் மாறுவதன் மூலமாக (முடிவு பட்டைகள் அல்லது வெப்பமின் இரட்டை வகை கம்பியின் மாற்றங்கள்) புதியதாக வெப்பமின் இரட்டை சந்திகள் உருவாகி அளவீட்டின் துல்லியத்தைப் பாதிக்கக்கூடும்.
மின்னிரட்டைகளின் விதிகள்
ஓரியல்பு பொருட்களின் விதி
வெப்ப மின்னோட்டமானது, ஒரு ஒற்றை ஓரியல்பு பொருளினால் மட்டுமே ஆன சுற்றில், வெப்பத்தை அளிப்பதால் மட்டுமே நிலைத்திருக்காது, வெப்பமானது அந்த பகுதியில் எவ்வளவு வேறுபாடு கொண்டிருந்தாலும் இது பொருந்தாது. வேறு சொற்களில் கூறுவதென்றால், உள்ளீட்டு மற்றும் வெளியீட்டு கம்பிகளுக்கு இடையே உள்ள வெப்பநிலை வேறுபாடுகள் வெளியீட்டு மின்னழுத்தத்தைப் பாதிப்பதில்லை, இதற்கு எல்லா கம்பிகளும், தெர்மோகப்பிள்களைப் போன்ற பொருட்களினாலேயே செய்யப்பட்டிருக்க வேண்டும்.
இடைநிலை பொருட்களின் விதி
ஒரு வெவ்வேறு பொருட்களைக் கொண்ட சுற்றில் உள்ள வெப்பமின்னோட்ட விசைகளின் குறியியல் கூட்டுத்தொகையானது,
எல்லா சந்திகளும் சீரான வெப்பநிலையில் உள்ளபோது பூச்சியமாகும். எனவே ஒரு மூன்றாவது உலோகம் ஏதேனும் ஒரு கம்பியில் சேர்க்கப்பட்டால், மற்றும் இரண்டு சந்திகளும் ஒரே வெப்பநிலையில் இருந்தால், அந்த புதிய உலோகத்தால் எந்தவொரு மின்னழுத்தமும் உருவாக்கப்படாது.
தொடர்ச்சியான அல்லது இடைநிலை வெப்பநிலைகளின் விதி
இரண்டு வேறுபட்ட ஓரியல்பு பொருட்கள் அதன் சந்திகள் T1 மற்றும் T2 ஆகிய வெப்பநிலைகளில் உள்ளபோது வெப்ப emf1 -ஐ உருவாக்குகிறது மற்றும் அதன் சந்திகள் T2 மற்றும் T3 வெப்பநிலைகளில் உள்ளபோது வெப்ப emf2 -ஐ உருவாக்குகிறது என்றால், சந்திகள் T1 மற்றும் T3 ஆகிய வெப்பநிலைகளில் இருந்தபோது உருவாகும் emf என்பது emf1 + emf2 க்கு சமமாகும்.
வெப்பமின்இரட்டைகள் தேய்மானம்
மிக அதிக வெப்பநிலைகள் கொண்ட ஃபர்னஸ்களில் பெரும்பாலும் வெப்பக்கூறுகள் பயன்படுத்தப்படுகின்றன.
இந்நிலையில் நடைமுறையில் அவற்றின் ஆயுட்காலம் கணக்கிடப்படுகிறது. உயர் வெப்ப சூழல்களில் உள்ள கம்பிகளின் வெப்ப மின்னோட்ட கெழுக்கள் காலம் மற்றும் அளவு மின்னழுத்த குறைவு ஆகியவற்றைப் பொறுத்து மாறுகின்றன. ஒவ்வொரு கம்பியும் ஓரியல்பு தன்மை கொண்டதாக இருந்தால் மட்டுமே, இணைப்புகளின் வெப்பநிலை வேறுபாடு மற்றும் மின்னழுத்த அளவீடு ஆகியவற்றுக்கு இடையே உள்ள எளிமையான உறவு உண்மையாகும். ஆனால் ஒரு பழைய தெர்மோகப்பிளில் இந்நிலை இருக்காது. அளவீட்டு மின்னழுத்தத்தை உருவாக்க தேவையான உலோகத்தின் பண்புகள் வேறுபட்ட வெப்பநிலை
மாறுபாடுகளில் இருக்கும். ஒரு காலாவதியான தெர்மோகப்பிளை ஒரு உலையிலிருந்து சிறிதளவு வெளியே எடுத்தால், உயர் வெப்பநிலையில் உள்ள அதன் பகுதிகள் உடனடியாக வெப்பநிலை மாறுபாட்டுக்கு உள்ளாகும்,
இதனால் அளவீட்டு பிழை கணிசமாக அதிகரிக்கும். ஆனாலும், உலையின் ஆழமான பகுதிகளுக்கு ஒரு பழைய தெர்மோகப்பிளை நகர்த்துவதன் மூலம் துல்லியமான முடிவுகளை எடுக்க முடியும்.
வெப்பமின்இரட்டைகள் ஒப்பீடு
பின்வரும் அட்டவணையானது பலவகை வெப்பமின்இரட்டை வகைகளின் பண்புகளை விவரிக்கின்றன. தாங்குத்திறன் நெடுவரிசையில், T என்பது வெப்பசந்தியின் வெப்பநிலையை டிகிரி செல்சியஸில் குறிப்பிடுகிறது. எடுத்துக்காட்டாக, ±0.0025×T என்ற தாங்குத்திறனைக் கொண்ட தெர்மோகப்பிளானது 1000 °C -இல் ±2.5 °C தாங்குதிறனைக் கொண்டிருக்கும்.
பயன்பாடுகள்
2300 °C வரையிலான அதிக வெப்பநிலை வரம்பில் அளவிடுவதற்கு தெர்மோகப்பிள்கள் அதிகம் பொருத்தமானவை. மிகச்சிறிய வெப்பநிலை வேறுபாடுகள் அதிக துல்லியத்துடன் கணக்கிடப்பட வேண்டிய இடங்களில் இவை குறைவான பொருத்தம் கொண்டவையாகும், எடுத்துக்காட்டாக 0–100 °C வரம்பில் 0.1 °C துல்லியத்துடன் கண்டறிவது. இவ்வகையான பயன்பாடுகளுக்கு தெர்மிஸ்டர்கள் மற்றும் மின்தடை வெப்பநிலை டிடெக்டர்கள் அதிகம் பொருத்தமானவையாகும். இவற்றின் பயன்பாடுகளில் உலைகளுக்கான வெப்பநிலை கணக்கீடுகள், வாயு டர்பைன் புகைப்போக்கி, டீசல் என்ஜின்கள் மற்றும் பிற தொழிற்சாலை செயல்பாடுகள் ஆகியவையாகும்.
எஃகு தொழிற்சாலை
B, S, R மற்றும் K வகை தெர்மோகப்பிள்கள் எஃகு மற்றும் இரும்பு தொழிற்சாலைகளில் மிக அதிகமாக பயன்படுத்தப்படுகிறது, இவை எஃகு உருவாக்கும் செயல்முறை முழுவதிலும், வேதியியல் மற்றும் வெப்பநிலைகளை கண்காணிக்கப் பயன்படுகிறது. ஒருமுறைப் பயன்படுத்தக்கூடிய, மூழ்கி வைக்கக்கூடிய S வகை தெர்மோகப்பிள்கள் போன்றவை எலக்ட்ரிக் ஆர்க் ஃபர்னஸ்களில், டாப்பிங்குக்கு முன்பு ஸ்டீலின் வெப்பநிலையைத் துல்லியமாக அளவிட பயன்படுகிறது. சிறிய எஃகு மாதிரியின் குளிர்வடைதல் வரைபடத்தை ஆய்வு செய்வதன் மூலமாக, உருகிய நிலையிலுள்ள எஃகின் கார்பன் அளவைக் கண்டறிய முடியும்.
வெப்பமூட்டும் பொருட்களில் பாதுகாப்பு
போறணைகள் (ஓவன்) மற்றும் வெப்ப நீர் வழங்கிகள் (வாட்டர் ஹீட்டர்) போன்ற பல வாயு-செலுத்தப்படும் வெப்பமூட்டும் பொருட்கள், தேவையான போது முதன்மை கேஸ் பர்னரை எரிய வைக்க பைலட் ஃப்ளேம் என்பதைப் பயன்படுத்துகின்றன. இது செயலிழந்தால், இந்த வாயுவானது வெளியேற்றப்பட்டு, பெரும் தீ ஏற்படும் ஆபத்து உருவாகும். இதை தடுப்பதற்கு, சில வீட்டு உபயோகப் பொருட்களில், ஃபெயில்-சேஃப் சுற்றில் ஒரு தெர்மோகப்பிளை இணைத்துள்ளனர், இதன் மூலம் எப்போது பைலட் விளக்கு எரிகிறது என்று உணர முடியும்.
தெர்மோகப்பிளின் முனையானது, பைலட் கொழுந்தில் வைக்கப்பட்டுள்ளது, இது மின்னழுத்தத்தை உருவாக்கும், இந்த மின்னழுத்தத்தின் மூலமாக பைலட்டுக்கு வாயுவைச் செலுத்தும் வால்வ் இயக்கப்படும். பைலட் கொழுந்தானது எரிந்துக்கொண்டிருக்கும் வரை, தெர்மோகப்பிள் தொடர்ந்து சூடாக இருந்து, பைலட் கேஸ் வால்வைத் திறந்த நிலையில் வைத்திருக்கும். பைலட் லைட் அணைந்து விட்டால், தெர்மோகப்பிளின் வெப்பநிலை குறைகிறது, இதனால் தெர்மோகப்பிளில் உள்ள மின்னழுத்தம் குறைந்து வால்வ் மூடப்படுகிறது.
மில்லி வோல்ட் கட்டுப்பாட்டு அமைப்பு என்றழைக்கப்படும், சில அமைப்புகளில் இந்த கருத்தானது முதன்மை கேஸ் வால்வைக் கட்டுப்படுத்தவும் பயன்படுத்தப்படுகிறது. பைலட் தெர்மோகப்பிளின் மூலமாக உருவாக்கப்பட்ட மின்னழுத்தமானது பைலட் கேஸ் வால்வை இயக்குவது மட்டுமின்றி, முதன்மை கேஸ் வால்வை இயக்கவும் இது ஒரு தெர்மோஸ்டாட்டின் மூலமாக செலுத்தப்படுகிறது. இங்கு, மேலே விவரிக்கப்பட்டவாறு பைலட் ஃப்ளேம் பாதுகாப்பு அமைப்பை இயக்குவது போலன்றி மிக அதிக மின்னழுத்தம் தேவைப்படுகிறது, இதனால் ஒற்றை தெர்மோகப்பிளுக்கு பதிலாக தெர்மோபைல் பயன்படுத்தப்படுகிறது. இந்த மாதிரியான ஒரு அமைப்பு இயங்குவதற்கு, வெளியிலிருந்து எந்தவொரு மின்னாற்றலும் தேவையில்லை, எனவே மின்னாற்றல் இல்லாத நிலைகளிலும் இது இயங்கும், ஆனால் தொடர்புடைய எல்லா அமைப்பு உறுப்புகளும் இதை அனுமதிக்க வேண்டும். பொதுவான ஃபோர்ஸ்ட் ஏர் ஃபர்னஸ்களை இது உள்ளடக்கவில்லை என்பதை நினைவில் கொள்ளவும். ஏனேனில் இங்கு ப்ளோயர் மோட்டாரை இயக்க வெளிப்புற மின் திறன் தேவை. ஆனால் இந்த அம்சமானது மின் திறனற்ற வெப்ப பரிமாற்ற ஹீட்டர்களுக்கு மிகவும் பயனுள்ளது.
இதே போன்ற வாயு முடக்க பாதுகாப்பு செயல்முறையானது, முதன்மை பர்னர் குறிப்பிட்ட கால அளவுக்குள் எரிகிறது என்பதை உறுதி செய்யவும், சிறிது நேரத்துக்கு பின்னர் கேஸ் சப்ளை வால்வை முடக்கவும் செய்யும் விதமாக தெர்மோகப்பிளைப் பயன்படுத்தி செய்யப்படுகிறது.
தொடர்ந்து இருக்கக்கூடிய பைலட்டால் இழக்கப்படும் திறனைக் கருத்தில் கொண்டு, பல புதிய பொருட்களின் வடிவமைப்பாளர்கள், எலக்ட்ரானிக முறையில் கட்டுப்படுத்தப்படும் பைலட் இல்லாத இக்னிஷனுக்கு மாறி விட்டனர், இதனை இடைநிலை இக்னிஷன் என்றும் அழைக்கிறார்கள். தொடர்ந்து இருக்கும் பைலட் ஃப்ளேம் இல்லாததால், இவற்றில் வாயு சேகரமாகிவிடும், கொழுந்து பெரிதாக எரியக்கூடிய ஆபத்து இல்லை, எனவே இந்த பொருட்களில் தெர்மோகப்பிள் அடிப்படையிலான பாதுகாப்பு பைலட் பாதுகாப்பு ஸ்விட்ச்கள் எதுவும் தேவையில்லை. ஆனால் இந்த வடிவமைப்புகளில், தொடர்ச்சியான மின்சாரம் இல்லாத இயக்கம் போன்ற நன்மைகள் இல்லாததால், ஸ்டாண்டிங் பைலட்களும் இன்னும் சில பயன்பாடுகளில் பயன்படுத்தப்பட்டு வருகிறது. தற்கால மாடல் வாட்டர் ஹீட்டர்கள், கேஸ் பர்னர்களை எரியூட்ட நீரின் ஓட்டத்தின் மூலமாக மின்சாரம் தயாரிக்கப்படுகிறது, இதனுடன், வாயு தீப்பற்ற தவறினால் அல்லது கொழுந்து அணைந்து விட்டால் வாயுவின் பயன்பாட்டைத் தடுக்க ஒரு கட்-ஆஃப் சாதனமாக தெர்மோகப்பிளும் பயன்படுத்தப்படுகிறது.
தெர்மோபைல் ரேடியேஷன் சென்சார்கள்
தெர்மோபைல்கள், கதிரியக்கத்தின் அடர்த்தியைக் கணக்கிட பயன்படுத்தப்படுகின்றன, பொதுவான ஒளி அல்லது அகச்சிவர்ப்பு ஒளி போன்றவை, இவை வெப்ப சந்திகளை சூடாக்குகின்றன, அதே நேரத்தில் குளிர் சந்திகள் வெப்ப சிங்க்கில் இருக்கின்றன. வணிகரீதியாக கிடைக்கும் தெர்மோபைல் சென்சார்களைக் கொண்டு, ஒரு சில μW/cm2 அளவுக்கு கதிரியக்க அடர்த்திகளை மட்டுமே அளவிட முடியும். எடுத்துக்காட்டாக, சில லேசர் திறன் மீட்டர்கள் இம்மாதிரியான சென்சார்களை அடிப்படையாக கொண்டவை.
உற்பத்தி
மாதிரி மின்சார மற்றும் எந்திரவியல் பொருட்களை சோதிக்க பெரும்பாலும் தெர்மோகப்பிள்கள் பயன்படுத்தப்படலாம். எடுத்துக்காட்டாக, மின்னோட்டம் தாங்கும் திறனுக்காக சோதிக்கப்படும் ஸ்விட்ச்கியர்களில், தெர்மோகப்பிள்கள் இணைக்கப்பட்டு, வெப்ப இயக்க சோதனை செய்யப்படலாம், இது மதிப்பிடப்பட்ட மின்னோட்ட அளவுகளில் வடிவமைப்பு வரம்பை மீறிய வெப்பநிலைகள் எட்டப்படவில்லை என்பதை உறுதி செய்யப் பயன்படும்.
ரேடியோ ஐசோடோப்பு தெர்மோஎலக்ட்ரிக் ஜெனரேட்டர்கள்
ரேடியோஐசோடோப் தெர்மோஎலக்ட்ரிக் ஜெனரேட்டர்களில் மின்சாரத்தை உருவாக்கவும் தெர்மோபைல்கள் பயன்படுத்தப்படலாம்.
செயல்முறை நிலையங்கள்
வேதிப்பொருள் உற்பத்தி மற்றும் பெட்ரோலிய சுத்திகரிப்பு நிலையங்கள் பெரும்பாலும், வெப்பநிலையுடன் தொடர்புடைய செயல்களைப் பதிவு செய்யவும் கட்டுப்படுத்தவும் கணினிகளைப் பயன்படுத்துவார்கள், இந்த செயல்களில் பல வெப்பநிலைகள், பொதுவாக நூற்றுக்கணக்கான வெப்பநிலைகள் பயன்படுத்தப்படும். அம்மாதிரியான நிலைகளில், பல தெர்மோகப்பிள் முனைகள் ஒரு பொதுவான மாதிரி தொகுதிக்கு கொண்டுவரப்படும், (ஒரு பெரிய தாமிர தொகுதி) இதில் ஒவ்வொரு சர்க்யூட்டுக்கான இரண்டாவது தெர்மோகப்பிள் இருக்கும். இதில் அந்த தொகுதியின் வெப்பநிலையானது ஒரு தெர்மிஸ்டரின் மூலம் கண்டறியப்படுகிறது. அளவிடப்பட்ட ஒவ்வொரு இடத்திலும் வெப்பநிலையைத் தீர்மானிக்க எளிய கணக்கீடுகள் பயன்படுத்தப்படுகின்றன.

\section{Cycle does not Contain Subcycles}
Tags: Graph Theory
\begin{theorem}
Let $G$ be a cycle graph.
Then the only cycle graph that is a subgraph of $G$ is $G$ itself.
\end{theorem}
\begin{proof}
{{AimForCont}} that $G$ contains a subgraph $C$ such that:
:$C$ is a cycle graph
:$C \ne G$ is non-empty.
Then there exists some vertex $v$ that is not in $C$.
Let $u$ be any vertex of $C$.
Since $G$ is a cycle graph, it is connected.
Therefore there is a walk from $u$ to $v$ in $G$.
There must be some vertex $x$ that is the last vertex in $C$ along that walk.
Therefore, $x$ is adjacent to a vertex not in $C$.
Thus it has a degree of at least $3$.
But $G$ is a cycle graph and every vertex in a cycle graph has degree $2$.
The result follows by Proof by Contradiction.
{{Qed}}

NF-κB (Nuclear Factor κ B) is a nuclear transcription factor found in all cell types and is involved in cellular responses to stimuli such as stress, cytokines, free radicals, ultraviolet irradiation, and bacterial or viral antigens. NF-κB plays a key role in regulating the immune response to infection. Consistent with this role, incorrect regulation of NF-κB has been linked to cancer, inflammatory and autoimmune diseases, septic shock, viral infection and improper immune development. There are five members in the NF-κB family: NF-κB1, NF-κB2, RelA (also named p65), RelB, and c-Rel. RelA(p65) subunit of NF-κB is a crucial regulator of apoptosis. RelA subunit mediates resistance to programmed cell death induced by many stimuli, including TNF, chemotherapy agents and ionizing radiation, through inducing the expression of a wide variety of anti-apoptotic genes. NF-κ-B is a pleiotropic transcription factor which is present in almost all cell types and is involved in many biological processed such as inflammation, immunity, differentiation, cell growth, tumorigenesis and apoptosis. NF-κ-B is a homo- or heterodimeric complex formed by the Rel-like domain-containing proteins RELA/p65, RELB, NFKB1/p105, NFKB1/p50, REL and NFKB2/p52 and the heterodimeric p65-p50 complex appears to be most abundant one. The dimers bind at κ-B sites in the DNA of their target genes and the individual dimers have distinct preferences for different κ-B sites that they can bind with distinguishable affinity and specificity. Different dimer combinations act as transcriptional activators or repressors, respectively. NF-κ-B is controlled by various mechanisms of post-translational modification and subcellular compartmentalization as well as by interactions with other cofactors or corepressors. NF-κ-B complexes are held in the cytoplasm in an inactive state complexed with members of the NF-κ-B inhibitor (I-κ-B) family. In a conventional activation pathway, I-κ-B is phosphorylated by I-κ-B kinases (IKKs) in response to different activators, subsequently degraded thus liberating the active NF-κ-B complex which translocates to the nucleus. NF-κ-B heterodimeric p65-p50 and p65-c-Rel complexes are transcriptional activators. The NF-κ-B p65-p65 complex appears to be involved in invasin-mediated activation of IL-8 expression. The inhibitory effect of I-κ-B upon NF-κ-B the cytoplasm is exerted primarily through the interaction with p65. p65 shows a weak DNA-binding site which could contribute directly to DNA binding in the NF-κ-B complex.

Found in Translation
A lovely translation of my story "A Stretch of Highway Two Lanes Wide" has just appeared in the Chinese magazine Science Fiction World. I wanted to take a moment to introduce the two women who have been working on my Chinese translations. They previously worked on my novelette "In Joy, Knowing the Abyss Behind," and are tackling "And We Were Left Darkling" next.
Translation of fiction is not an easy task. It's not word for word. If you've ever put a phrase into Google Translate, you know that we haven't found a way to automate the process well. Good translators do so much more than substitute words in one language for another. They convey moods and concepts. They convey figurative language and idiom with no corollary. Georges Perec's La Disparition is an entire French novel written without the use of the letter E; the translation to English ("A Void") has to do the same thing, but the entire color palette changes. There are verb tenses that avoid E in French that do not in English. And yet the translator still has to maintain the intent of the author. If you read Ken Liu's translation of the Chinese novel The Three Body Problem, you may have noticed his thorough footnotes. Ken footnoted passages that might hold great significance to a Chinese reader, and none to most Americans. A uniform of a certain color might resonate in one culture, while to another it might be nothing but a detail of world-building. To make the book successful with American audiences he had to make us understand the significance of every sentence.
Translation is a collaboration. Working with the translators on "A Stretch of Highway…" (and earlier, "In Joy…") forced me into a more intimate relationship with my own stories. I would get emails asking specific questions I had never answered for myself. I needed to clarify whether a minor character was a younger sibling or an older sibling; the word in English was the same, but they were different in Chinese. Did "worked on his truck" mean "repaired the engine" or "drove his truck"? Both are reasonable readings given the context. And then there were the figurative sentences: infections with figurative teeth, artificial pathways. It's a figurative story; there was a lot of back and forth.
And then of course there are all the science fictional concepts. If I coin a new word or write a concept into existence, they're responsible for making sure it works in both languages. Have you ever tried to make a pun in your second language? It's tricky business.
Over the months that we worked together on these stories, we got to talk about other things as well. The places we live, the things we do outside of writing, our pets and families.
I asked both women if I could talk about them here. I wanted to give you their biographies and a little more, since I didn't want them reduced to a simple byline after all of their hard work.
Wu Shuang, or Anna Wu, is a science fiction, movie, and teleplay writer. She is from Jiangsu Province. She graduated from China University of Mining and Technology, where she majored in Chinese language and literature. She has already published several short stories in Galaxy's Edge, Science Fiction World Magazine, and Arts and Literature, and has worked with Yu Youqun to translate more than two hundred thousand words of English fiction by writers including Mike Resnick, Ken Liu, and Alyssa Wong. She asked me to say that she believes that imagination could change the world, and that the beauty and charm of science fiction will last forever in the universe and galaxy.
Abby (Yu Youqun) was born in 1985 in Sichuan Province. She graduated from China University of Mining and Technology, and received Bachelor and Master's degrees of Arts in 2009 and 2012. Her major was English language and literature. She has been teaching college for more than three years. Collaborating with Anna, she began to do translation of science fiction works. She says they work together happily. Abby is responsible for translating the English version into Chinese and communicating with the authors. Anna makes the Chinese version more fluent when Abby has finished her work. She asked me to say, "All of our published works were worked out by our pooling of thoughts. I believe reading science fiction is an amusing enjoyment. Imagination enlarges our world and horizon, makes everything to be possible. I hope this will be helpful."
I'm so happy to have been able to work with these two talented translators, and I look forward to working with them again in the future. I wrote these stories, but in their careful translations, they bring them to life for a new audience.
Nice blog! I´ve just read "A Strech of Highway..." (great title, by the way) in spanish, through Axxón (a magazine I absolutely love). Next I´ll get on with "In joy". It´s great what you are saying about translations (my native language it´s spanish, but I speak english as well). I find so many bad translations to spanish! Anyway... really glad I found you. I´m also a writer and I´ve written several short stories and novels. If you feel like, you can check my blog (it´s in spanish, though) See ya!

Poor headline kills paper's credibility
This Journal Sentinel online headline:
Asked about same-sex weddings, Gov. Walker talks of a relative's marriage
Could have read:
Walker declined to attend relative's same-sex wedding
We expect politicians to parse and spin, but newspapers should not do them the favor.
Anonymous said...
Walker is their guy -- no facts reported about Scott Walker there. It's not allowed. No one did more to create our divide-and-conquer governor than Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.
my5cents said...
Exactly, and instead of simply answering the question honestly, he said they attended the reception, and from there he went straight to the Wisconsin Constitution quoting that marriage was between a man and a woman. Someone else commented today on a TV show that people really need to look below the surface where Walker is concerned because what he is telling people is not the whole story about anything. I would suggest that they research his days as Milwaukee County Executive if they want to know what he is really like.
Jake formerly of the LP said...
It's been dead awhile, Jim.
As 5cents brings up- Walker's at the point now where he doesn't know where the story ends and the lies begin. And if being -15 in approval is an indication, both Walker and his J-S cheerleaders need to know the jig is up for most people back home.
Jim Bouman said...
Down deep…in the place where it really matters…he's shallow.
Just like the Journal Sentinel.
my5cents said...
While watching a video from a talk news show yesterday and after listening to how Walker actually answered that question, the so-called analyst ended up saying that "Walker attended a same-sex wedding." No, that is not what he said. People don't really listen anymore. Attending the reception is NOT attending the wedding. And, he only muttered something about the reception at that and very quickly moved on to say he believes marriage is between a woman and a man and then quoted the state constitution. | dclm_baseline | {'bff_contained_ngram_count_before_dedupe': '0', 'language_id_whole_page_fasttext': "{'en': 0.970015585422516}", 'metadata': "{'Content-Length': '125094', 'Content-Type': 'application/http; msgtype=response', 'WARC-Block-Digest': 'sha1:56IYNTMLHJUNNEW74UX27QM2X6SXKO2S', 'WARC-Concurrent-To': '<urn:uuid:f6c43b59-46e3-440b-bd0d-5cdb3487cfaa>', 'WARC-Date': datetime.datetime(2021, 9, 28, 8, 35, 40), 'WARC-IP-Address': '172.217.1.193', 'WARC-Identified-Payload-Type': 'text/html', 'WARC-Payload-Digest': 'sha1:QAG2EY23L6QTDC4TEYJQ34MSWP26PKY4', 'WARC-Record-ID': '<urn:uuid:bac9bb0e-a5f7-46f4-ab02-4bc6d9c5c29d>', 'WARC-Target-URI': 'https://thepoliticalenvironment.blogspot.com/2015/04/poor-headline-kills-papers-credibility.html', 'WARC-Type': 'response', 'WARC-Warcinfo-ID': '<urn:uuid:601bc71f-52f1-424e-85c6-b00301af6dff>', 'WARC-Truncated': None}", 'previous_word_count': '335', 'url': 'https://thepoliticalenvironment.blogspot.com/2015/04/poor-headline-kills-papers-credibility.html', 'warcinfo': 'isPartOf: CC-MAIN-2021-39\r\npublisher: Common Crawl\r\ndescription: Wide crawl of the web for September 2021\r\noperator: Common Crawl Admin (info@commoncrawl.org)\r\nhostname: ip-10-67-67-142\r\nsoftware: Apache Nutch 1.18 (modified, https://github.com/commoncrawl/nutch/)\r\nrobots: checked via crawler-commons 1.2-SNAPSHOT (https://github.com/crawler-commons/crawler-commons)\r\nformat: WARC File Format 1.1\r\nconformsTo: https://iipc.github.io/warc-specifications/specifications/warc-format/warc-1.1/', 'fasttext_openhermes_reddit_eli5_vs_rw_v2_bigram_200k_train_prob': '0.07119590044021606', 'original_id': 'df35dfbd6a4d9887034217beff466ce2e8df5c546c761bd31233a335577a0be6'} |

Christmas Stockings Many families will hang large brightly colored Christmas stockings over the fireplace or on the walls of their homes during Christmastime in the hopes that Santa Claus will fill them with toys, treats, and goodies. In fact, families have been hanging stockings for as long as there have been stockings!
It’s hard for kids to understand today, but for many hundreds of years, most people only had one or two suits of clothing to wear. When their cloths were dirty, they would be washed and then hung up (hopefully near a fire) to dry. Non-essential clothing, such as socks and gloves were especially valuable and a child was unlikely to have more than one pair and was expected to take good care of that one!
If a parent wanted to “hide” a treat (such as a small piece of candy) where they were sure it would be found, they would put it in a child’s stocking and it would be found the next morning.
When Clement Clarke Moore published his famous poem “Twas the night before Christmas” in 1822, the first paragraph talked about hanging stockings:
Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house
Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse.
The stockings were hung by the chimney with care
In hopes that St Nicholas soon would be there.
Eventually, it became a general tradition that Christmas gifts were left in the stockings hung up on Christmas Eve. Any parent who has a child can easily understand that the kids figured out that if they hung bigger stockings, they might get bigger or more treats, so the size of the stockings grew with each passing Christmas. Even when the families celebrating Christmas grew wealthy enough that they exchanged larger boxed presents, the tradition of hanging up stockings continued (as did the warning that if you were not well behaved, you might not get any presents – just a lump of coal in your stocking).
So be sure to hang up your stocking and hope that Santa Claus brings you a present instead of a lump of coal.

From To Everyone an Answer: A Case for the Christian Worldview
"Indeed they were so bold as to proclaim him messiah in Jerusalem -- the very place where there were numerous witnesses to his execution, which presumably should have scotched the rumor that he was more than an ordinary mortal."
Aside from the importance of what he's saying (roughly translated, that the disciples proclaimed Jesus was alive in the same city he was crucified), guess why I liked that sentence.
And in a different vein (still talking about Jesus):
"He came to make known something about God and something about humankind and something about their interrelationship in the crucible of a volatile environment in which proclamations about the intervening saving reign of God were dangerous and could get one crucified because of what such messages implied about one's own relationships of power to both God and God's people."
I have read that sentences, in general, should be no more than 15-20 words. A bit longer is okay to make a point, but longer sentences tend to lose people. This one has 59 words. I read it three times before I understood it at all. It's actually easier to understand now that I've taken it out of the paragraph. No wonder Apologetics is giving me a headache.

I have determined that the life span of a box of crayons in Children's Church is not more than 9 months. Actually, it's about 6 months of living and 3 months on life support.
About 9 months ago I bought 6 new boxes of crayons from Dollarama. (Before you begin to wonder just how cheap I am, understand that they are Crayola crayons and they are boxes of 24. These are not cheap crayons; they are simply inexpensive!) Three months ago I straightened out the boxes (again) and determined that I had 2 complete sets of crayons, 3 mostly complete sets, and 1 box of broken crayon pieces. I figured they would last a few more months before I needed to replace them. Last Sunday I noticed that no one has a complete set anymore, so I decided it's time for new ones.
Side note: I understand the broken crayons. I do not know how so many disappear. When I'm teaching we check the table, the chairs, and the floor for crayons. It's after I haven't been teaching that I need to go through the boxes for the kids and reorganize the sets so they have the right colours (yes I spoil them; your point is?) and that's usually when I find out how many are missing. I don't think everyone is as compulsive as I am about making sure we have all the crayons at the end of class. I bought new crayons. Six beautiful boxes. The kids will be very happy Sunday morning. The old crayons always go to the nursery unless the youngest Sunday School class wants them. I always feel a bit bad about that; basically I'm saying, "Here are some crayons that are no longer good enough for my kids so your kids can have them." On the other hand, we are talking about children who still eat crayons, so it's probably okay!

What's Making Me Happy Today
1. Getting off work early today (actually I got off at 5, but I've been working so many evenings that 5 feels early).
2. Finally finding that I'm understanding the apologetics text books. The more I read the more it makes sense.
3. Finding the "Stuff Christians Like" blog. If you head over that way, be sure to check out the comments as well as the posts; sometimes the comments are funnier.
4. E-mails from the kids. They make me smile.
5. Reading comics instead of apologetics for a while. | dclm_baseline | {'bff_contained_ngram_count_before_dedupe': '0', 'language_id_whole_page_fasttext': "{'en': 0.9771262407302856}", 'metadata': "{'Content-Length': '88548', 'Content-Type': 'application/http; msgtype=response', 'WARC-Block-Digest': 'sha1:2J36Y42OR2WJUR7D52KXQKELRKV2YTE5', 'WARC-Concurrent-To': '<urn:uuid:052ed2b0-013f-47d0-8a7d-c276f99ebf58>', 'WARC-Date': datetime.datetime(2017, 2, 26, 19, 3, 46), 'WARC-IP-Address': '172.217.1.1', 'WARC-Identified-Payload-Type': None, 'WARC-Payload-Digest': 'sha1:6WWTI4UL2ER6WV2KF2BAKKQSVETBYO2P', 'WARC-Record-ID': '<urn:uuid:9f602941-5c29-4b23-845b-605c91c79ff2>', 'WARC-Target-URI': 'http://dorothysthoughts.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html', 'WARC-Type': 'response', 'WARC-Warcinfo-ID': '<urn:uuid:8a17e0ef-0158-407c-9f84-bffadd4c0435>', 'WARC-Truncated': None}", 'previous_word_count': '632', 'url': 'http://dorothysthoughts.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html', 'warcinfo': 'robots: classic\r\nhostname: ip-10-171-10-108.ec2.internal\r\nsoftware: Nutch 1.6 (CC)/CC WarcExport 1.0\r\nisPartOf: CC-MAIN-2017-09\r\noperator: CommonCrawl Admin\r\ndescription: Wide crawl of the web for February 2017\r\npublisher: CommonCrawl\r\nformat: WARC File Format 1.0\r\nconformsTo: http://bibnum.bnf.fr/WARC/WARC_ISO_28500_version1_latestdraft.pdf', 'fasttext_openhermes_reddit_eli5_vs_rw_v2_bigram_200k_train_prob': '0.025306761264801025', 'original_id': 'c59e927d8f30bd60493837a2bd75abb6323f198a6d04059ee3224fc0636ac65a'} |
