Some drivers also like to have their own special car plate. When you use a special number plate maker, you can design a car plate for your car that is unique to you. Many people want to add in a variety of images that represent the things they like, such as a cartoon character badge or the logo of a favourite sports club. It’s all possible, just as long as the required legal number and registration information is included on the plate.

The starting point is to navigate to proplates.co.uk and choose from a variety of styles that appeal to you. There are hundreds to choose from. The only hard part is deciding on the style that you like best. Once you have the style down, the next thing to choose is the background. This can be a favourite colour or a pattern. After this, you can choose a custom border, which can really bring attention to your plate design.
Many people have a favourite logo, insignia, or flag that they really love and would enjoy displaying on their car’s number plate. This can be added too on the number plate maker website, where you’ll find a wide selection of templates and logos that can be added to your bespoke plate as you are customising it.

Dubai: The massive gas discovery announced by the UAE authorities on Monday combined with recent oil and gas finds are expected to make the country energy self-sufficient while boosting the oil-GDP [gross domestic product] and external balances, according to economists and oil industry experts.
The economic impact of this discovery will largely depend on how quickly commercial production can begin.
The Jebel Ali reservoir located between the two emirates has 80 trillion cubic feet of gas resources. The new discovery, experts said is the largest in last 15 years. The last major discovery was in 2005, when the Galkynysh field was found in Turkmenistan - the world’s second-largest gas field.
“The new gas find is an important step towards energy self-sufficiency for the UAE that will certainly have positive long term impact on the economy. The size of the (gas) find is significant and the shallow nature of the reserves makes it easy to extract gas at substantially lower costs. The economic impact of this discovery will largely depend on how quickly commercial production can begin,” said Monica Malik, Chief Economist of Abu Dhabi Commercial Bank.
Analysts say the UAE is moving fast to become self-sufficient in gas supply by 2030, a step that would allow it to break its reliance on imports from Qatar.
“This is an important project on a grand scale that could help secure the UAE’s gas and electricity needs for years to come,” said Mohamed Elewa, Advisory Partner, Grant Thornton.
According to the official announcement, Abu Dhabi National Oil Co (Adnoc) will jointly develop the new reservoir with the Dubai Supply Authority (Dusup). Dubai-owned Dusup distributes gas in the emirate. Adnoc has already dug 10 wells as part of the initial works related to the project. The reservoir is within an area between Saih Al Sidirah and Jebel Ali.
In November last year the UAE had announced the discovery of major oil and natural gas reserves taking the country to the sixth spot in both global oil and gas reserves ranking, according to a recent statement by Abu Dhabi’s Supreme Petroleum Council (SPC).
The SPC, the highest governing body of the oil and gas industry in Abu Dhabi, said late last year that new reserves include 7 billion barrels of oil and 58 trillion cubic feet (1.64 trillion cubic meters) of conventional gas.
This contributed to the UAE moving to sixth spot - up by one - globally in terms of global oil and gas reserves, with a total reserves of 105 billion barrels of oil, 273 trillion cubic feet of conventional gas and 160 trillion cubic feet of standard non-conventional gas resources.
“The Jebel Ali reservoir has 80 trillion cubic feet of natural gas, making it the fourth-largest in the world, according to Bloomberg. It is unclear how long it will take to develop the field, but increasing natural gas production would boost hydrocarbon GDP, helping to mitigate the impact of oil production cuts,” said Khatija Haque - Head of MENA Research at Emirates NBD.
In addition to recent large discoveries, there have been smaller gas finds such as the one announced by Sharjah National Oil Corporation and its Italian partner ENI in late January this year at the Mahani field in Sharjah. The discovery of at Mahani-1 exploration well has a flow rates of up to 50 million standard cubic feet per day.
The Jebel Ali gas discovery is enormous by all standards, according to experts. The announced resources would make it the fourth-biggest gas field in the Middle East behind Qatar’s North Field and Iran’s South Pars and Abu Dhabi’s Bab field.
Analysts said the new gas discovery is a positive development for the UAE economy. However, it should be noted that it is not a short-term game changer.
“The new gas discovery marks a significant milestone for the UAE and its journey towards gas self-sufficiency. At the current juncture, technical recovery levels from the depository remain unclear and further appraisals are needed to provide quantifiable evaluations," said Ehsan Khoman, Head of MENA Research and Strategy at MUFG.
"Critically, market supply-demand fundamentals as well as gas price dynamics will be central in determining the commercial viability of extraction levels. What is clear however, is that this development will provide a further positive impetus to the UAE’s medium to long-term economic growth trajectory,” he added.

Sunil was one of the ace comedians who could put a smile on our faces in any given circumstance. But later he chose to entertain us becoming a hero. He recently enthralled the audience with his latest offering Jakkana, which released on July 29th.
The film opened to a decent response and had made a good collection at the worldwide box office. The film has recorded career-best openings for Sunil till date as Jakkana collected 3. 78 Crores share on its opening day. Despite of the drop in its second day, the collections have shown high jump from the third day to twelve days of its release. So, far the film collected 15.28 Crore share at the box office.
Producer Sudharshan Reddy buoyed by the great response over the film. In a recent media interaction, Sudharshan said, “We are extremely pleased with the way ‘Jakkanna’ has been received by the audiences. Although the film opened to divided talk on the first day, it picked up steam and managed to rake in a share of Rs 7.3 Crore in the opening weekend worldwide”.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE The amount of dissolved iron in oceans bordering the world’s continental shelves varies far more between regions than realised, researchers say, with implications for future climate prediction. LONDON, 19 July – British scientists say estimates of the amount of iron dissolving into seawater around some of the world’s coasts may be drastically wrong. They say there is no standard, one-size-fits-all way to measure how much iron enters the water in different parts of the globe. Instead, they say, the amounts may vary by up to ten thousand times between one area and another, with profound implications for the impact of the iron on the oceanic carbon cycle. This uncertainty, they say, has probably led to iron’s impact being both exaggerated and underplayed. It is compounded by another discovery: that the iron enters the water by two mechanisms, not the one thought so far to be solely responsible. Iron is key to the removal of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere as it promotes the growth of microscopic marine plants (phytoplankton), which mop up the greenhouse gas and lock it away in the oceans. But the new study, led by researchers based at the National Oceanography Centre Southampton, UK, has found that the amount of dissolved iron released into the oceans from continental margins – the zone of the ocean floor that separates the thin oceanic crust from thick continental crust – varies in ways not currently captured by ocean-climate prediction models. This, they say, could alter predictions of future climate change, because iron plays a key role in the global carbon cycle. The study found that the amount of iron leaking from continental margin sediments varies between regions because of local differences in weathering and erosion on land. The results of the study are published in Nature Communications.
Adding sugar to tea
“Iron acts like a giant lever on marine life storing carbon,” says Dr Will Homoky, lead author and postdoctoral research fellow at University of Southampton Ocean and Earth Science, which is based at the Centre. “It switches on growth of microscopic marine plants, which extract carbon dioxide from our atmosphere and lock it away in the ocean.” Continental margins are a major source of dissolved iron entering the oceans. But until now measurements have been taken only in a limited number of regions across the globe, all with low oxygen levels and high sedimentation rates. The Southampton study focused on a region with contrasting environmental conditions – in Atlantic waters off the coast of South Africa. “We were keen to measure iron from this region because it is so different from areas studied before. The seawater here contains more oxygen, and sediments accumulate much more slowly on the seafloor because the region is drier and geologically less active”, says Professor Rachel Mills, co-author of the study. The team found substantially smaller amounts of iron being supplied to seawater than measured anywhere before, challenging preconceptions of global iron supply. They also found two different mechanisms by which rocks are dissolving on the seafloor, by measuring the isotopic composition of the iron using a technique developed with co-authors based at the University of South Carolina. “We already knew that microbial processes dissolve iron in rocks and minerals”, says Dr Homoky. “But now we find that rocks also dissolve passively and release iron to seawater, a bit like sugar dissolving in a cup of tea.
“…The presence or absence of iron supply from continental margins may be enough to drive Earth’s transition between glacial and interglacial periods”
“The fact that we have found a new mechanism makes us question how much iron is leaking out from other areas of the ocean floor. If certain rocks are going to dissolve irrespective of microbial processes, suddenly there are whole regions that might be supplying iron that are presently unaccounted for. “Model simulations indicate that the presence or absence of iron supply from continental margins may be enough to drive Earth’s transition between glacial and interglacial periods. “Therefore these findings could certainly have implications for global climate modelling – to what extent is yet to be determined. “Our study shows that the amount of iron coming off different margins might vary by up to ten thousand times. In some regions we are probably over-estimating – and in others under-estimating – the influence of sedimentary iron supply on the ocean’s carbon cycle”. The study is highly topical now as debate continues over where the heat caused by greenhouse gas emissions is going. Some claim that climate change is at a virtual standstill, because atmospheric heating has slowed a little. Others say the heat is going into the oceans. Intriguingly, it remains unclear which group can claim the study supports it. The study formed part of GEOTRACES, an international programme designed to improve understanding of biogeochemical cycles and large-scale distribution of chemical elements and their isotopes in the marine environment. – Climate News Network

(And of course the Stoeger Luger, being .22 caliber, is blowback; it does not need or have the locked breech of the original gun.)
+1. On a "real" Pistol Parabellum or Luger pistol, the barreled receiver and the toggle linkage recoil together for a short distance before the toggle linkage strikes ramps in the frame, unlocks from the barreled receiver, and hinges upward. On the Stoeger .22, the barrel and receiver don't move upon firing; the pistol operates as a pure blowback, but with a toggle linkage to operate the bolt rather than a more conventional straight coil spring.
Also, AFAIK the Stoeger .22 uses an internal hammer rather than the original Luger's spring-loaded striker and peculiar side-pivoting sear.
One final note: the Stoeger .22 should not be confused with the pre-WWII Stoeger-imported
"American Eagle" Luger pistols, which were the Real Thing, made by DWM in Germany.

This work presents an analytical study of the flow and energy loss immediately downstream of rectangular sharp-crested weirs for free and submerged flows, using the theory of plane turbulent jets and the analysis of some relevant studies. The flow regimes downstream of the sharp-crested weir is characterized as the impinging jet and surface flow regimes. Based on the flow characteristics and the downstream tailwater depths, each flow regime is further classified, and the relative energy loss equation is developed. It is found that significant energy loss occurs for the regime of supercritical flow and the upper stage of impinging jet flow. The energy loss for the submerged flow regime is minimal.

Authors´ conclusions: MMR vaccination was associated with reduced rate of hospital contacts related to laboratory-confirmed RSV infection. Further research on the association between MMR vaccination and other unrelated pathogens are warranted.
Reviewers´ commentary: the results of this study show a non-specific protective effect of the MMR vaccine, with a decrease in the incidence of respiratory syncytal virus (RSV) infection in children, to a greater extent when more time passed from the day of vaccination. Although this is a cohort study, with the risk of bias, it meets the quality criteria required for this type of study. When informing parents about vaccines, we could tell them that the MMR vaccine could decrease the risk of serious RSV infection, an illness with high incidence in early life.

While Jenner and her family remains mum regarding her rumored pregnancy, a source reportedly told HollywoodLife that Jenner's brother-in-law Kanye West talked to Scott to reiterate the importance of family, since the couple is rumored to be fighting because he is spending lesser time with her.
But Kendall proved that she was rising above fans' comments in the most stylish possible way with her latest Instagram snap - which cheekily gestured to the rumours. She was also missing from family's Keeping Up With the Kardashians Christmas special and she was missing from their 25 Days of Christmas photoshoot, too.

It is the simplest thing in the world to sell your soul. Every hour of every person’s life is spent doing just that. Would you understand why it’s so much more difficult if I asked you to maintain your soul? Here is the collection of some finest Pure soul quotes that you can share with your friends and family.
30 Pure Soul Quotes
“nainam chindanti shastraninainam dahati pavakahna chainam kledayanty apona sosayati marutah” (Bhagwat Gita: Chapter Two verse 23)
MEANING: Weapons cannot pierce the Soul, Fire cannot burn it, Water cannot wet it, and Wind cannot dry it.
So the mighty soul is described in different perspectives in the following pure soul quotes.
The soul is placed in the body like a rough diamond and must be polished, or the luster of it will never appear.
Beauty isn’t about having a pretty face, it’s about having a pretty mind, a pretty heart, and a pretty soul. – pure soul quotes
What keeps life fascinating is the constant creativity of the soul.Sometimes the most evolved souls take the most challenging paths.
Beauty is not who you are on the outside, it is the wisdom and time you gave away to save another struggling soul like you.
You will never follow your own inner voice until you clear up the doubts in your mind.
If you don’t take risks, you’ll have a wasted soul.
Even the tiniest actions should involve your heart, mind, brain, and soul. This is the key to achieving success.
We must never give up on our dreams. Dreams nourish the spirit in the same way as food nourishes the body.
The soul can only be revealed via mystery and madness.
True Character Saying
Never work just for the sake of gaining power or money. They won’t help you sleep at night or save your soul.
Nothing is wrong with you…not even the darkest corner of your lovely soul.
Beauty is a light in the heart, not a pretty face.
Beautiful thoughts result in a lovely spirit. There’s always something lovely to see, no matter where you go.
The body grows slowly and steadily, but the soul expands quickly. It may grow to its full size in an hour.
Evil has a difficult time capturing the unconsenting soul.
Mankind is the greatest and most reliable artist of all, and history, as it reveals, is in fact an artistic process, a full-fledged expression of the beautiful soul. – pure soul quotes
Allow my soul to smile through my heart and my heart to smile through my eyes so that I might spread joy to sorrowful souls.
A room devoid of books is like to a body devoid of soul.
As a result, the unwilling soul sees what is concealed, whereas the ever-wanting soul only sees what it desires.
Pure Soul Quotes
The richest asset is the depth of one’s soul.
Wisdom Is Better Than Silver Or Gold, Don’t Gain The World But Lose Your Soul.
A lovely soul’s only worth is its own existence.
There is a trail of pleasant recollections wherever a beautiful soul has been.
Ordinary wealth can be taken, but true wealth cannot. There are immensely valuable things in your soul that no one can take away from you.
Beauties may roll their pretty eyes in vain; charms may catch the eye, but merit wins the heart.
You are devoid of a soul. You are a person with a soul. You have a physical body.
There is a field beyond the concepts of wrongdoing and rightdoing. I’ll be waiting for you there. The world is too full to talk about when the soul lies down on that grass. – pure soul quotes

A chunk of ice four and a half times the size of Manhattan fell off an Antarctic glacier. This marks the second time in two years that a huge iceberg has calved from the area. The break-off could speed up the loss of more ice, eventually eating away at a barrier that prevents land-based ice from flowing to the sea.
The Pine Island Glacier is located in West Antarctica, and has been one of the largest contributors to sea level rise on the continent, since it’s been losing ice at an accelerating rate over the past 40 years. In 2015, a 224-square-mile iceberg calved from the glacier. The latest cleavage, which was photographed by satellites over the weekend, has resulted in an iceberg about 103 square miles in area. It was the fifth big calving event since 2000, says Stef Lhermitte, a satellite observation specialist at Delft University of Technology in the Netherlands.
These chunks of ice are breaking off a floating portion of the glacier, so they don’t raise sea levels by themselves. Floating ice shelves are like ice cubes in a glass of water: when the ice cubes melt, the water level in the glass doesn’t rise. But the floating ice shelves do create a barrier, which keeps the ice that’s hanging out on land from flowing into the sea. Without the barrier, the extra water from the continent could mean higher seas. Pine Island Glacier alone could raise sea levels by 1.7 feet if it all melted, according to The Washington Post. That’s why scientists are keeping an eye on it.
Icebergs calve off Antarctica all the time, but the chunks of ice that broke off Pine Island Glacier are somewhat unusual. The latest iceberg, for instance, cracked off from the center of the ice shelf rather than the sides. That could be because warmer ocean waters are eating away at the ice from beneath, weakening the glacier, The Washington Post says. Following the recent break-offs, it looks like the glacier is retreating.
Scientists will keep monitoring Pine Island Glacier, as well as other ice shelves that are producing some of the biggest icebergs ever created. The whole of West Antarctica alone might contribute 10 feet of sea level rise. So if the trend continues, that could spell doom for cities like New York and Miami.

(5.00 from 3 reviews)
I am she, the natural mother of all things, the mistress and governess of all the elements. The initial progeny of worlds, chief of the powers divine. The principle of them that dwell in heaven, manifested alone and under one form, of all the gods and goddesses; at whose will the planets of the sky the wholesome winds of the seas, and the lamentable silences of hell are dispersed. I am, that I am.

God: always has one in the hole…
Revelations 5:4-7 (KJV) “And I wept much, because no man was found worthy to open and to read the book, neither to look thereon. And one of the elders saith unto me, Weep not: behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, hath prevailed to open the book, and to loose the seven seals thereof. And I beheld, and, lo, in the midst of the throne and of the four beasts, and in the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb as it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth. And he came and took the book out of the right hand of him that sat upon the throne”.
There are times that we look upon the things we need to accomplish in life and the task of getting it done seems impossible and out of the reach of resources we have and the folks at hand to do it.
The job is important and there has to some manner or wherewithal of accomplishing it, but the insight into doing this is not visible, so we end up settling for a measure that will get it done, but not in the way we would choose.
Likewise in the spiritual realm, the man of God saw the job to be accomplished and he was perplexed because no one was available or suitable to do so; but in hindsight and considering a view from the eyes of God, there was someone and He was suitable and HE was chosen by God.
The Lamb that was slayed before the world began was selected and was available to accomplish the task He was created for. The Father and Son reconciled to each other and still standing in the gap for mankind.
Rejoice in the Lord for His goodness to the children of men.

By producing a large number of droplets containing different reagents in slightly different concentrations, it is possible to generate a high resolution map of how a reaction proceeds from different starting conditions. Here, Anthony Genot, a Physicist explains how they interpret the data obtained from the experiment. (Image Credit: Limms Japan)
In a revolutionary advancement, researchers have developed a droplet-based microfluidic technique for simultaneously testing – different, complex biochemical reactions. The work published in Nature Chemistry, is an international collaboration of Japanese and French scientists of interdisciplinary fields under the LIMMS CNRS/University of Tokyo unit and led by Yannick Rondelez.
Complex biochemical systems need to be studied in different conditions (e.g., different concentration of reagents) not only to understand the biochemical processes but to provide viable diagnostic solutions.
Currently, this kind of study is carried out by computer simulations or laboratory experiments; each with their own set of drawbacks. Simulations, although capable of testing millions of conditions, are based largely on assumptions and might not be able to cover the minute details of real-life biochemical processes. On the other hand, hands-on experiment, even for a simple design is a time-consuming and a labor intensive job.
Keeping these in mind, this novel technology uses microfluidic technology that surmounts the problems of the existing methods by providing information on thousands of reactions, at a lesser amount of volume and reduced sample volume, time and effort.
Microfluidics is the technology of fabricating devices with micro channels for work with fluids of very small volume (microliters to picoliters) being utilized for a wide range of applications such as inkjet printers, biochemical assays, chemical synthesis, drug screening, etc. Compared to traditional technologies, microfluidic technology offers precise control and manipulation of fluids, reduced sample volume and process time.
10,000 windows using a microfluidic platform
Using a micro-fluidic device, the team produced uniform, micron-sized droplets containing random concentration of reagents and obtained around ten thousand data points. The device consisted of inlets for aqueous phase (containing reagents) and oil phase (with surfactant) to make water-in-oil droplets, which is stabilized by the surfactant used with oil.
A single layer of droplets was then immobilized between glass slides and was characterized using fluorescence microscopy, which reads out the fluorescent signal associated with the particular reagent and presents the reactions by a colorful array of dots. This high resolution map so generated, gives the information of the dynamic biochemical reactions and their optimized condition.
Dr Anthony Genot (a CNRS researcher at LIMMS) elucidates, “It was difficult to fine-tune the device at first. We needed to generate thousands of droplets containing reagents within a precise range of concentrations to produce high resolution maps of the reactions we were studying. We expected that this would be challenging. But one unanticipated difficulty was immobilizing the droplets for several days it took for some reactions to unfold. It took a lot of testing to create a glass chamber design that was airtight and firmly held the droplets in place.” It took them almost 2 years to optimize the device and put it to use.
“The map can tell us not only about the best conditions of biochemical reactions, it can also tell us about how the molecules behave in certain conditions. Using this map we’ve already found a molecular behaviour that had been predicted theoretically, but had not been shown experimentally. With our technique, we can explore how molecules talk to each other in test tube conditions. Ultimately, we hope to illuminate the intimate machinery of living molecular systems like ourselves,” said Rondelez.
One of the biggest potential applications of this exciting innovation that the team anticipates is the development of diagnostics for molecular reactions. Bringing together the French (specialists in molecular engineering) and Japanese scientists (microfluidics expert) on the same platform, the versatile technology with current capacity to simultaneously map 10,000 reactions is overwhelming already. However, the researchers are aiming to increase this window even further by employing a microscope which is quicker than the one used in the current study.
To further cater to your interest, watch the video below of the beautiful process and the effort involved, released by LIMMS.

Who we are
We are a growing private nonprofit space interest group formed in 1997. We are composed of current and former astronauts, cosmonauts, scientists, artisans, educators, students, and members of the general public from all over the world with an interest in ensuring future space exploration
We have progressed to a time when technology is no longer the major obstacle to space exploration it is the political decisions and cost issues that will drive any future space ventures by promoting international cooperation in space we not only lower the costs for individual nations but go a long way towards promoting international understanding and a peaceful future
Our Motto: Let's Go!
The famous words of the first human to enter space Yuri Gagarin as he sat inside of his spacecraft waiting to begin the trip that would signal the beginning of the space age like him we are tired of the debating the bickering the delays and excuses if there is to be future exploration of space we must begin taking concrete steps now and get on with pursuing humanity's natural instinct for exploration

Early life and career beginnings
T.I. was born Clifford Joseph Harris Jr. on September 25, 1980, in Riverdale, Atlanta, Georgia, the son of the late Clifford "Buddy" Harris Sr. and Violeta Morgan. He was raised by his grandparents in Bankhead, Atlanta, Georgia. His father lived in New York and he would often go up there to visit him. His father suffered from Alzheimer's and later died from the disease. T.I. began rapping at age seven. He attended Douglass High School, but later dropped out. As a teenager, he was a drug dealer. He was once known as Rubber Band Man, a reference to the custom of wearing rubber bands around the wrist to denote wealth in terms of drugs or money. By age 14, he had been arrested several times. He was nicknamed "Tip" after his paternal great-grandfather. Kawan "KP" Prather, a record executive, discovered and signed T.I. when he was a teenager. Upon signing with Arista Records subsidiary LaFace Records in 2001, he shortened his name to T.I. out of respect for label mate Q-Tip.
2001–2002: I'm Serious
T.I. released his debut album, I'm Serious, in October 2001 through Arista Records. The album spawned the eponymous single, which featured Jamaican reggae entertainer Beenie Man. His debut single, "I'm Serious," was released on June 26, 2001. The single received little airplay and failed to chart. The album included guests appearances from Pharrell Williams of The Neptunes (who called him "the Jay-Z of the South"), Jazze Pha, Too Short, Bone Crusher, Lil Jon, Pastor Troy, P$C and Youngbloodz. The album featured production from The Neptunes, DJ Toomp, Madvac, and The Grand Hustle Team. Despite the album's guests appearances and production team, the album peaked at number 98 and only sold 163,000 copies in the United States. Critics pointed to the fact that many of the tracks sounded the same and that a few were blatant rip-offs. Other critics commented saying, "T.I. claims to be the king of the South, but fails to show and prove. He does, however, have potential. If his talent ever matches his confidence, he may be headed for stardom."
Due to the poor commercial reception of the album, T.I. was dropped from Arista Records. He then formed Grand Hustle Entertainment and started releasing several mixtapes with the assistance of DJ Drama. He resurfaced in the summer of 2003 with fellow Atlanta rapper and former label-mate Bone Crusher's song "Never Scared." His mixtapes and mainstream exposure from "Never Scared" eventually recaptured major label attention and he signed a joint venture deal with Atlantic Records.
2003–2005: Trap Muzik and Urban Legend
T.I. released his second album Trap Muzik on August 19, 2003 through Grand Hustle Records; it debuted at number four and sold 109,000 copies in its first week. It spawned the singles "24s", "Be Easy", "Rubberband Man", and "Let's Get Away". The album featured guest appearances by Eightball & MJG, Jazze Pha, Bun B and Macboney and was produced by Jazze Pha, Kanye West, David Banner, Madvac and DJ Toomp. In March 2004, a warrant was issued for T.I.'s arrest after he violated his probation of a 1997 drug conviction. He was sentenced to three years in prison. While imprisoned in Cobb County, Georgia, he filmed an unauthorized music video. One month later, he was allowed a work release program.
T.I. released his third studio album, Urban Legend, in November 2004. It debuted at number seven on the Billboard 200, selling 193,000 copies in its first week. The album's official lead single, "Bring Em Out", was released in January 2005 and became his first top ten hit, peaking at number nine on the Billboard Hot 100, while the second single "U Don't Know Me" peaked at number twenty-three on the Billboard Hot 100. His third single "ASAP" reached number 75 on the U.S. charts, number 18 on the U.S. R&B/Hip-Hop charts and number 14 on the Rap chart. T.I. created a video for "ASAP"/"Motivation". However, "Motivation" only made it to number 62 on the U.S. R&B/Hip-Hop singles chart. He was featured in Destiny's Child's 2004 single "Soldier" along with Lil Wayne, peaking at number three on the U.S. Hot 100 and the U.S. R&B Charts.
In 2006, T.I. received two Grammy Award nominations for Best Song Collaboration ("Soldier" w/ Destiny's Child & Lil Wayne) and Best Rap Solo Performance for "U Don't Know Me" at The 48th Grammy Awards. That same year he won Rap Artist of the Year, Rap Album Of The Year, Rap Album Artist Of The Year, Rap Song Artist of the Year and Video Clip Artist of the Year on the Billboard Music Award and Best Male Hip-Hop Artist on the BET Awards.
2006–2007: King, T.I. vs. T.I.P. and federal weapons charges
T.I.'s fourth album, King, debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 chart in the first half of 2006, selling 522,000 copies in its first week. T.I. released "Front Back" and "Ride with Me" as a promotional singles prior to the release of the album. The singles garnered little attention, but helped to promote not only the album, but also ATL. The album also included the singles, "What You Know," "Why You Wanna," and "Live in the Sky," plus a remix of "Top Back." King earned numerous awards and nominations including a Grammy Award nomination for Best Rap Album. He was also featured in the single "Shoulder Lean" by Young Dro reaching the top ten on the U.S. Hot 100 and #1 on the U.S. Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs and Hot Rap Tracks.
"What You Know" won a Grammy Award for Best Rap Solo Performance and was nominated for Best Rap Song at the 49th Grammy Awards. Also that year, T.I. collaborated with Justin Timberlake for "My Love," which proved to be a worldwide hit, and won a Grammy Award for Best Rap/Sung Collaboration with Justin Timberlake at the 49th Annual Grammy Awards and also won Best Male Hip-Hop Artist at the BET Awards for the second straight time. He then served as a featured performer on "We Takin' Over" by DJ Khaled also featuring Akon, Fat Joe, Rick Ross, Birdman and Lil Wayne.
T.I. released his fifth album, T.I. vs. T.I.P., on July 3, 2007. The first single from the album was "Big Things Poppin' (Do It)," which was produced by Mannie Fresh and was released to radio stations on April 17, 2007. The second single, "You Know What It Is" featuring Wyclef Jean, was released June 12, 2007. T.I. vs. T.I.P. sold 468,000 copies in the United States, according to Nielsen SoundScan, and debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 and the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart. It was T.I.'s second chart-topper in a row: King opened at number one on the Billboard 200 with 522,000 copies in late March 2006. The album included guest performances by Jay-Z, Busta Rhymes, Wyclef Jean, Nelly, and Eminem, and production by Eminem, Jeff Bass, Mannie Fresh, Grand Hustle, The Runners, Just Blaze, Wyclef Jean and Danja. Absent from this album's production lineup were T.I.'s longtime producer DJ Toomp and The Neptunes. In October 2007, T.I. released his third single, "Hurt," featuring Busta Rhymes and Alfamega.
On October 13, 2007, federal authorities arrested T.I. four hours before the BET Hip-Hop Awards in Atlanta. He was charged with two felonies — possession of three unregistered machine guns and two silencers, and possession of firearms by a convicted felon. The arrest was made in the parking lot of a downtown shopping center, which a witness identified as the Walgreens drug store at the corner of North and Piedmont Avenues. T.I. was arrested after allegedly trying to purchase the guns from a "cooperating witness" with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. According to federal officials, the witness had been cooperating with authorities a few days prior to the T.I. arrest, when the cooperating witness was arrested on charges of trying to purchase guns from a federal agent. The witness had been working as T.I.'s bodyguard since July, authorities said. T.I. walked out of the Atlanta United States District Court after appearing before U.S. Magistrate Judge Alan J. Baverman on October 26, 2007. Judge Alan J. Baverman required T.I. post a $3 million bond, $2 million in cash and $1 million in equity on property he owns. The rapper was required to remain at home except for medical appointments and court appearances. The only people allowed to live with him were his girlfriend and children. Visitors were required to be approved by the court.
2008–2009: Paper Trail
T.I.'s suppression hearing was scheduled for February 19, 2008. The performer later pleaded guilty to U.S. federal weapons charges. He was sentenced to an undefined prison sentence, a year of house arrest and 1,500 hours of community service. In an interview with MTV about serving jail time, T.I. stated, "Presumably, while I'm there, I'll be able to strategize my comeback." He went on to say that he would not "just be sitting still doing nothing". At that time T.I. collaborated with Mariah Carey on the "I'll Be Lovin' U Long Time" remix, peaking at number 58 on the U.S. Hot 100 and number 36 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs.
While under house arrest, T.I. began writing lyrics down on paper for his following album. The first promotional single from the album, "No Matter What," was released in April 2008. The music video was released on June 2008 on MTV's FN Premieres. The second promotional single was "Swing Ya Rag" which was produced by and featured Swizz Beatz. The official lead single was "Whatever You Like," was released on July 2008, and became his most successful single of his career so far, breaking the record for the highest jump to number one on the Billboard Hot 100, jumping from number 71 to number one. Also becoming T.I.'s first solo number one on the chart. He released his sixth album, Paper Trail, in September 2008. The title of the album refers to the lyrics he had written down on paper. Like many other rappers, T.I. abandoned this style of rapping after his debut album I'm Serious by just memorizing lyrics. His representative explain that T.I. wanted to "take more time to really put something down [this time]". The album debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 selling 568,000 copies in the United States.
The second single, "Swagga Like Us", featuring Kanye West, Jay-Z and Lil Wayne, debuted and peaked at number five on the Billboard Hot 100. With the third single "Live Your Life" featuring Rihanna, T.I. broke his own record on the Billboard Hot 100 when it jumped from number 80 to the number one. The fourth single "Dead and Gone", featuring Justin Timberlake, peaked at number two for five weeks on the Billboard Hot 100, eventually going on to be nominated during the 52nd Grammy Awards for both "Best Rap/Sung Collaboration" and "Best Rap Song". During the 51st Grammy Awards, he was nominated for four Grammy Awards, eventually winning Best Rap Performance by a Duo Or a Group for "Swagga Like Us". "Remember Me", featuring Mary J. Blige, was released digitally on July 7, 2009. It was the planned first single off the re-release of T.I.'s sixth studio album, "Paper Trail", but the re-release was eventually shelved. The single peaked at number 29 on the Billboard Hot 100. On October 6, "Hell of a Life" was released digitally and went on to peak at number 54 on the Billboard Hot 100. In 2009, T.I. appeared as himself on an episode of Kathy Griffin: My Life on the D-List. On the episode, he took the comedienne to Roscoe's House of Chicken and Waffles in LA and gave her a lesson on how to "swagger."
2010–present: King Uncaged
On March 26, 2010, T.I. was released from the halfway house. He is also currently in the studio working on his seventh studio album titled King Uncaged. Jim Jonsin, the producer who previously worked with him on his single, "Whatever You Like" and R&B singer Trey Songz, are scheduled to work on the project..
In February 2010, T.I. made his first public appearance since prison, stepping out with fiancée Tameka "Tiny" Cottle in support of her Alzheimer's research fundraiser "For the Love of Our Fathers" at Atlanta's Opera venue. "I am very well, very happy to be seen," said T.I., who joined Cottle onstage at the end of the benefit. T.I. released a new street single titled "I'm Back" on March 8, 2010. The single has made a Hot Shot Debut at #44 on Billboard's Hot 100 charts.
On May 13, 2010, T.I. appeared on Larry King Live to discuss with Larry King about his nine month prison term on federal gun charges and other topics. T.I. released a promotional soundtrack single entitled, "Yeah Ya Know (Takers)" on May 24. The song is set to appear on the official soundtrack for Takers and his album. It made a debut at #44 on Billboard Hot 100 and number 68 on Canadian Hot 100. His official single off the album entitled; "Got Your Back" which also features American R&B singer Keri Hilson was released on June 1. It debuted at number 38 on Billboard Hot 100 and 48 on Canadian Hot 100.
On May 27, 2010, T.I. released a mixtape entitled "Fuck a Mixtape"; the move was somewhat controversial, due to its title with many feeling he was insulting the Mixtape format. T.I. has addressed the issue by stating that it was a response to all the people who told him to just focus on an album and not on a mixtape. T.I. further defended his decision to release a mixtape by saying:
"I already have 60, 70 songs. A lot of these songs are period pieces that speak volumes to what's going on right now. If I hold onto them next year or the year after, they'll be dated, because my life will be in another direction. If I'm not gonna put it on the album — and they all can't make the album — then they might as well have another platform to present it to the world".
On October 14, 2010 T.I. helped talk down a twenty-four year old man, who was standing on a ledge on the edge of a 22-story building. He heard about the situation on the radio and drove to the scene at Atlanta's 400 Colony Square Building. He released a new single entitled, "Get Back Up" featuring Chris Brown on the same day that he was sent back to prison for violating the terms of his probation.

Hydropower development: Producing power sans conflict
Increase in electricity production from river flow has fulfilled energy demand of growing population, but hydel projects often become a cause for conflict. Appropriate water allocation is the key to developing hydropower projects without conflict
Hydropower is normally portrayed as an environmentally benign, clean-green, renewable and sustainable source of energy. Yet, conflicts between the proponents and opponents abound in almost all the hydropower projects. Benefit sharing and offering financial share to the people in the affected areas in these projects have been proposed to reduce the degree of conflict.
Scientific and appropriate water allocation for competing demands is the key to developing hydropower projects without conflict. Based on numerous interactions with the stakeholders and analysis of data, including environmental flow (e-flow) assessment and potential climate change impacts on river flow, the Conflict and Cooperation in the Management of Climate Change (CCMCC) Project has developed a simple conceptual model to address the core issue related to hydropower development sans conflict.
One of the major sources of conflict is reduction in water availability when local residents need it. During the monsoon reason, due to abundant rainfall, there is plenty of river flow. Over-abundance of water, in fact, becomes a problem to everyone. However, during the dry season, the scarcity of water in the rivers creates conflict among different water users.
Secondly, long stretches of dry river beds are yet another source of conflict. Compared to the storage type, the run-of-river (ROR) type hydropower projects are considered relatively less damaging to the environment and socio-cultural aspects of the project area. However, when the ROR type projects are constructed in cascade, with the tail-water of the upstream project directly tapped by the downstream project, the stretch of the dry river bed becomes very long and can have a severe adverse effect on the environment and socio-cultural parameters. Similarly, institutional unwillingness to update and implement policies and rules also causes conflict. The institutions involved in the formulation and implementation of the policies, acts and rules related to the hydropower development are aware of the impacts of climate change on river flow and the potential negative impacts from the hydropower plants if the e-flows are not released from the plants. However, the current system of hydropower design process does not require consideration of the impacts of climate change; if a particular hydropower plant is willing to fully comply with the e-flows, there is no mechanism to financially compensate for the reduced energy production. Since the downstream release is not monitored, in effect, the rule breakers are indirectly awarded. When the e-flows are not released from a hydropower plant, the life and livelihood of the downstream residents are adversely affected, which could invite conflict.
Likewise, unpredictable and unwarned sudden increase in the river flow downstream from the tailrace. The storage type and the peaking ROR type hydropower projects release a large volume of water from its tailrace. The release is suddenly stopped when they store water. This on-again off-again release of water at a particular river section, on a daily basis, leads to stress in the life cycle of aquatic living beings. Many people also lose lives when they are caught off-guard due to sudden increase of water. Many local residents find it challenging to coordinate with the dam operators, and the resulting unpredictable and unwarned sudden increase in river flow results in death and damage to properties, including damage to wild life. Some simple steps, however, can be taken to reduce the conflict emanating from disparity in water allocation associated with a typical hydropower plant.
As a part of the outputs of the project, a simple conceptual model for better water allocation has been developed, in consultation with the stakeholders and analysis of data, including e-flow assessment and potential impacts of climate change on river flow. Application of this spreadsheet based model can be used as a tool in roughly estimating the amount of water that will be available in each month for hydropower generation at a particular river section.
Similarly, a mandatory minimum distance between the tailrace of an upstream project and the intake of a downstream project should be set so that the dry river bed length is not very long. This provision enhances better access to the river water and hence reduces conflict between the local residents and the hydropower proponents.
The design guidelines of the hydropower project should clearly mention the requirement of climate change assessment in the water availability for energy generation. This provision will prevent under/over-estimate of design discharge. Similarly, the licensing institute must require the hydropower developers to submit daily gauge height data at river sections upstream of the intake site and downstream of the tailrace site and periodic discharge measurement and sediment sampling data for the entire duration of the licensing period. Additionally, proper e-flows assessment should be conducted before awarding the license.
These provisions will enable proper monitoring of the operation modality of the hydropower plants, encourage the plant operators to abide by the regulations, ensure release of e-flows, and result in reduced conflict.

This application is a divisional of U.S. application Ser. No. 09/707,862, filed on Nov. 7, 2000 now U.S. Pat. No. 7,112,115.
1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to a light emitting device having an element in which a light emitting material is sandwiched between electrodes (hereinafter referred to as light emitting element), and to a method of manufacturing the same. More particularly, the present invention relates to a light emitting device using a light emitting material with which EL (electro luminescence) can be obtained (hereinafter referred to as EL material).
2. Description of the Related Art
In recent years, a light emitting device (hereinafter referred to as EL display device) using light emitting elements utilizing an EL phenomenon of a light emitting material (hereinafter referred to as EL element) has been advancing. The light emitting element of an EL display device itself can emit light. Accordingly, differently from a liquid crystal display, no back light is necessary. Further, since the viewing angle thereof is wide, the EL display devices are suitable for outdoor uses.
Light emitting materials that can be used for an EL element include inorganic materials and organic materials. In recent years, organic materials which can be driven with low driving voltage, have been attracting attention. However, when the organic material is used for the EL element, there is a problem in that deterioration thereof develops rapidly. Since the organic material is oxidized, the efficiency of recombination of carriers becomes extremely worse, and thus, the EL phenomenon can not be obtained.
For the purpose of preventing the deterioration of the organic material used for an EL element, various ideas have been attempted. Generally, a method is known in which an EL element is covered with a ceramic material or a metal material to seal up the EL element in a space to shut out the outside air. EL displays manufactured by Tohoku Pioneer Co., Ltd. employ this method. Tohoku Pioneer Co., Ltd. provides a drying agent in the space.
Further, as the other means, technology disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-open Nos. Hei 9-35868 and 11-54285 are known.
The present invention has been made in view of the above, and therefore has an object thereof to improve the throughput and the yield in a method of encapsulating a light emitting element for protecting it against the outside air, and to reduce the manufacturing cost of a light emitting device using the light emitting element.
According to the present invention, by using a multilayout process for forming a plurality of light emitting devices from a large-sized substrate, the manufacturing cost of a light emitting device using a light emitting element may be reduced. In particular, the most remarkable feature of the present invention is to make it possible to divert an existing line for manufacturing liquid crystal cells to the process of encapsulating light emitting elements according to the present invention, which can greatly reduce the manufacturing cost including the investment in plant and equipment.
The present invention has an advantage in that, by employing the process of encapsulating light emitting elements similar to that of forming liquid crystal cells, existing apparatus used in a process of forming cells can be diverted to apparatus used in that of encapsulating light emitting elements with small modifications. Further, since the process of forming liquid crystal cells has already gotten enough results of mass production, its diversion greatly improves the yield thereof.
More specifically, by forming a sealing material on an insulator (such as a substrate) having a light emitting element formed thereon and bonding a covering material thereto using the sealing material, a portion surrounded by the insulator, the covering material, and the sealing material is made to be a space which can be sealed off (hereinafter referred to as cell), and the cell is filled with resin or liquid. Such resin or liquid used for this purpose is herein referred to as encapsulant (or filler). It is characterized in that the encapsulant is filled using vacuum injection. The resin may be injected into the cell when it is on the liquid phase and may be cured thereafter.
It is to be noted that a light emitting device using an EL element herein described includes a light emitting device for displaying character information or image information (hereinafter referred to as EL display device) and a light emitting device used as a light source (hereinafter referred to as EL light emitting device).
In the accompanying drawings:
A case where a plurality of active matrix EL display devices are manufactured on a large-sized substrate according to the present invention is now described. Reference is made to plan views of
First, as illustrated in
The first sealing material 13 may be formed using a dispenser method or a screen printing method which are conventional in a line for manufacturing liquid crystal cells. Here, as illustrated in
Next, spherical spacers 15 are scattered over the whole surface of the substrate 12. As the spacers 15, conventional ones can be used. The spacers 15 may be scattered in a conventional wet or dry method before or after the first sealing material 13 is formed. In any case, the distance between the substrate 12 and a covering material to be disposed over the substrate 12 is secured by the filler (not shown) or the spacers 15.
It is to be noted that to make the spacers 15 hygroscopic is effective in suppressing the deterioration of the EL elements formed in the pixel portions 11. Spacers formed of a hygroscopic substance represented by barium oxide may be used. Further, it is preferable that the material of the spacers 15 transmits light emitted from the EL elements.
In the present embodiment mode, a region 16 surrounded by the first sealing material 13 includes a pixel portion containing an EL element and a TFT electrically connected to the EL element. Further, together with the pixel portion, a driving circuit for transmitting an electric signal to the pixel portion may also be included. Of course, the structure may be that only the pixel portion is provided inside the first sealing material 13 while the driving circuit is provided outside the first sealing material 13.
Next, as illustrated in
As the covering material 17, a substrate (or a film) having the same area as that of the substrate 12 may be used. As the substrate (or the film), a glass plate, a quartz plate, a plastic plate, a plastic film, an FRP (Fiberglass-Reinforced Plastics) plate, a PVF (polyvinyl fluoride) film, a Mylar™ film, a polyester film, or an acrylic film can be used.
Depending on the direction of light emitted from the EL element, it may be necessary to use a transparent substance. When a film is used as the substrate 12, it is preferable that ultraviolet curing resin is used as the first sealing material 13.
After the covering material 17 is adhered, the substrate 12 and the covering material 17 are cut. When the substrate 12 and the covering material 17 are cut, a conventional cutting device can be used. Typically, a scriber, a dicer, or a laser can be used. A scriber is a device which, after a narrow groove (scribe groove) is formed in a substrate, impacts the scribe groove to generate a crack along the scribe groove and to cut the substrate. A dicer is a device which cuts a substrate by bringing a hard cutter (also referred to as a dicing saw) which rotates at a high speed into contact with the substrate.
In the present embodiment mode, an example where a scriber is used as the cutting device is illustrated. With regard to the procedure to form scribe grooves in the substrate 12 and in the covering material 17, first, scribe grooves 18 a are formed in the direction shown by arrows (a), and then, scribe grooves 18 b are formed in the direction shown by arrows (b). Here, scribe grooves which pass nearby the openings 14 are formed so as to cut off the first sealing material 13. Since this makes the openings 14 appear at the end face of the cell, a subsequent process of injecting encapsulant is facilitated.
After the scribe grooves 18 a and 18 b are formed in this way, a resilient bar such as of silicone resin impacts the scribe grooves to generate cracks and to cut the substrate 12 and the covering material 17.
It is to be noted that, in the present embodiment mode, if the viscosity of the encapsulant is not low, since the encapsulant is injected by vacuum injection, it takes a very long time to complete the injection. In this case, it is effective to inject the encapsulant after the encapsulant is heated to lower its viscosity.
Further, though it is preferable that resin which has low hygroscopicity is used as the encapsulant 21, a material which can be use for the first sealing material 13 may also be used. It is to be noted that, depending on the direction of light emitted from the EL element, it may be necessary to use a transparent substance.
Further, it is preferable that, as the encapsulant 21, one the viscosity of which is as low as that of liquid crystal is used. More specifically, it is desirable that the viscosity of the encapsulant 21 is 5-100 cp (preferably 10-30 cp). Encapsulant having such viscosity may be selected, or, encapsulant having higher viscosity may be diluted with a solvent or the like to have desired viscosity. Further, by adding to the encapsulant in advance a hygroscopic substance as a drying agent, deterioration of the EL elements can be further prevented.
Further, in case a material having high viscosity is used as the encapsulant, it is effective to inject the encapsulant after the encapsulant is heated. Even if the encapsulant has viscosity as high as 1×104 cp, it can be used in vacuum injection by heating it to 70-100° C.
In this way, the encapsulant 21 is filled as illustrated in
After the encapsulant 21 is filled as described in the above, the encapsulant 21 is cured to further enhance the adherence between the substrate 12 and the covering material 17. If the encapsulant 21 is ultraviolet curing resin, ultraviolet is irradiated onto the encapsulant 21, while, if the encapsulant 21 is thermosetting resin, the encapsulant 21 is heated. It is to be noted that, in case thermosetting resin is used, it is necessary that the heat resistance of the organic EL material is taken into consideration.
Then, scribe grooves are again formed in the substrate 12 and in the covering material 17. With regard to the procedure to form the scribe grooves, first, scribe grooves 22 a are formed in the direction shown by arrows (a), and then, scribe grooves 22 b are formed in the direction shown by arrows (b). Here, the scribe grooves are formed such that, after the cutting, the area of the covering material 17 is smaller than that of the substrate 12.
After the scribe grooves 22 a and 22 b are formed in this way, the scribe grooves are impacted as described in the above to cut the substrate 12 and the covering material 17 into cell forming substrates 23-26.
Finally, as illustrated in
In the process described in the above, an EL display device as illustrated in
The active matrix type EL display device of the present invention will be explained in Embodiment 1 with reference to
Denoted by reference numeral 408 is a connecting wiring for transmitting a signal to be inputted to the source driver circuit 401, the gate driver circuit 402, and the pixel portion 403. The connecting wiring receives a video signal and a clock signal from an FPC (Flexible Print Circuit) 409 serving as a connecting terminal to an external equipment.
As shown in
Next, the pixel electrode 302 is formed of a transparent conductive film and functions as the cathode of the EL element. An insulating film 305 is formed on each end of the pixel electrode 302 to thereby further form a light-emitting layer 306, and a hole injection layer 307. Further, the anode 308 of the EL element is formed of a transparent conductive film thereon.
As a film formation method of the light emitting layer 306 and a hole injection layer 307, any known means may be used and not only an organic material but also an inorganic material can be used as the material. Also note that, though the structure shown here is composed of the light-emitting layer and hole injection layer, it may be a laminate structure in which an electron injection layer, an electron transportation layer, a hole transportation layer, and the like are combined.
Further, in the case of the present embodiment, the anode 308 functions as a common wiring shared by all the pixels, and is electrically connected to the FPC 409 via the connecting wiring 408.
Next, according to the present invention, the first sealing member 405 is formed using a dispenser or the like, and a spacer (not shown) is sprayed, followed by bonding the covering member 404 by the first sealing member. The filler 407 is then filled into the space surrounded by the active matrix substrate, the covering member 404, and the first sealing member 405 by vacuum injection.
In Embodiment 1, barium oxide as a moisture absorbent material is added into the filler 407 in advance. Note that though the moisture absorbent material is added into the filler used in Embodiment 1, it can be massively dispersed and sealed within the filler. In addition, it is also possible to use a moisture absorbent material as the material of a spacer not shown in the drawing.
After curing the filler 407 with ultraviolet irradiation or heat, an opening portion (not shown) formed in the first sealing member 405 is sealed up. Then, the second sealing member 406 is disposed so as to cover exposing portions of the first sealing member 405 and the filler 407, and a portion of the FPC 409. The second sealing member 406 may be formed from the same material as the first sealing member 407.
By sealing the EL element within the filler 407 using the method as described above, the EL element is completely cut off from external and invasion from the outside by substances that accelerate the oxidation degradation of the organic material, such as moisture and oxygen, can thus be prevented. Accordingly, an EL display device of high reliability can be manufactured.
Because the production line of existing liquid crystal display devices can be redirected by employing the present invention, a sharp reduction in the cost of maintenance investment is possible. A plurality of light-emitting devices can be fabricated from one piece of substrate through a process of high yield, resulting in making a substantial cutback in manufacturing cost.
In the present embodiment, a passive matrix EL display device manufactured according to the present invention is described with reference to
Further, an insulating film 503 is formed orthogonally with respect to the cathodes 502 arranged like stripes. The insulating film 503 is also provided between the cathodes 502 so as to insulate and separate the cathodes 502 from one another. Therefore, the insulating film 503 is patterned to be matrix-like when viewed from the top.
Further, a bank 504 formed of resin is formed on the insulating film 503. The bank 504 is formed in the direction perpendicular to the plane of the figure so as to be orthogonal to the cathodes 502. The bank 504 is processed to have an upside-down triangular shape (an upside-down tapered shape).
Next, a light emitting layer 505 and an anode 506 formed of a transparent conductive film are continuously formed. Since the light emitting layer 505 is easily affected by moisture or oxygen, it is desirable that the light emitting layer 505 and the anode 506 are continuously formed in a vacuum or an inert atmosphere. Though the light emitting layer 505 may be formed of any conventional material, an organic polymer material is preferable from the viewpoint of the simplicity of film formation. Further, it is preferable that the anode 506 is provided by vapor deposition. Both the light emitting layer 505 and the anode 506 are formed along grooves formed by the bank 504, and are arranged like stripes in the direction perpendicular to the plane of the figure.
It is to be noted that, though not shown in the figure, it is effective to provide between the light emitting layer 505 and the anode 506 a hole transport layer or a hole injection layer as a buffer layer. As such a hole injection layer, copper phthalocyanine, polythiophene, PEDOT, or the like can be used.
As described in the above, an EL element is formed on the substrate 501. It is to be noted that, since, in the present embodiment, the lower electrode is a cathode which does not transmit light, light generated by the light emitting layer 505 is emitted to the upper surface side of the figure (the side opposite to the substrate 501). However, the structure of the EL element may be upside down and the lower electrode may be the anode formed of a transparent conductive film. In this case, light generated by the light emitting layer 505 is emitted to the lower surface side of the figure (the side of the substrate 501).
Further, an IC chip 507 is provided on the substrate 501 by a bump method. The IC chip 507 is provided as a driving circuit for transmitting an electric signal to the cathode 502 and to the anode 506, and processes a signal from an external apparatus by an FPC (a flexible print circuit) which is not shown.
After that, the EL element is encapsulated according to the present invention. In the present embodiment, ultraviolet curing resin is used as a first sealing material 508, a glass substrate is adhered as a covering material 509, and encapsulant 510 is filled by vacuum injection. As a hygroscopic substance 511, barium oxide is added to the encapsulant 510. It is to be noted that, in the present embodiment, epoxy resin is used as the encapsulant 510. Further, in case light generated by the light emitting layer 505 is emitted to the lower surface side, the covering material 509 is not required to be transparent.
After the injection of the encapsulant 510 is completed in this way, the opening (not shown) provided in the first sealing material 508 is closed, and a second sealing material 512 covers the exposed portions of the first sealing material 508 and the IC chip 507. Here, though not shown, the second sealing material 512 may be provided so as to cover a part of the FPC.
By encapsulating the EL element in the encapsulant 510 using the method described in the above, the EL element can be completely isolated from the external, and substances such as moisture and oxygen which promote oxidation of the organic material can be prevented from entering. Therefore, a reliable EL display device can be manufactured.
Further, according to the present invention, since an existing line for manufacturing liquid crystal display devices can be diverted, the cost of the investment in plant and equipment can be greatly reduced, and a plurality of light emitting devices can be manufactured from one substrate in a process having a high yield, and thus, the manufacturing cost can be greatly reduced.
In the present embodiment, a case where encapsulant is formed in a different way from that described with reference to
Then, encapsulant 604 is dropped on the pixel portion 602 in the region surrounded by the first sealing material 603. Of course, a hygroscopic substance (not shown) may be added to the encapsulant 604 in advance. As the hygroscopic substance, the ones described in the embodiment mode can be used. The dropping process can be carried out by using a film forming applicator such as a dispenser used in forming the first sealing material 603.
Further, the process of dropping the encapsulant 604 is preferably carried out in a glove box and in an inert atmosphere such as nitrogen or argon. Here, it is desirable that the concentration of oxygen in the inert atmosphere is as low as possible, preferably 1 ppm or lower (more preferably, 0.1 ppm or lower).
Then, as illustrated in
As described in the embodiment mode, when the encapsulant is injected by vacuum injection, if the viscosity of the encapsulant is not low, there is a fear that the throughput may be lowered. However, in the present embodiment, since the encapsulant is dropped and then fills the closed space when pressed down, there is an advantage that, even if a highly viscous material is used, almost no problem arises.
After the covering material 605 is adhered as described in the above, similarly to the case of the embodiment mode, the substrate 601 and the covering material 605 are cut by a scriber, a dicer, or a laser, and an FPC and/or an IC chip is attached to complete an active matrix EL display device or a passive matrix EL display device.
It is to be noted that the present embodiment may be implemented both with the active matrix EL display device described in Embodiment 1 and with the passive matrix EL display device described in Embodiment 2. Further, since a line for manufacturing liquid crystal display devices can be diverted without adding special equipment, the manufacturing cost can be greatly reduced.
In the present embodiment, a case where encapsulant is formed in a different way from that described with reference to
Then, as illustrated in
After that, by bringing encapsulant in contact with the opening 704, the capillary action injects the encapsulant (not shown) into a cell 708. In this way, the present embodiment is characteristic in that the capillary action is utilized in injecting the encapsulant.
The process of injecting the encapsulant is preferably carried out in a glove box and in an inert atmosphere such as nitrogen or argon. Here, it is desirable that the concentration of oxygen in the inert atmosphere is as low as possible, preferably 1 ppm or lower (more preferably, 0.1 ppm or lower).
After the encapsulant is injected, by carrying out processes similar to those illustrated in
The present invention is implemented for a light emitting device in which an EL element is provided on an entire surface of a substrate. Such a light emitting device (EL light emitting device) can be used as the light source for light emission in face shape and used as a back light of a liquid crystal display device (liquid crystal display).
In an EL light emitting device according to the present embodiment, it is very important to seal an EL element, so that it is preferable to use the present invention for a sealing technique.
Examples of a light emitting device using an EL element are described in Embodiments 1 to 5. Further, the present invention can be used for an EC (Electrochromics) display device, a field emission display (FED), or a light emitting device comprising a light emission diode using semiconductor.
In particular, with regard to an EC display device, since a material indicating EC phenomenon is easily affected by oxygen or moisture in the same as an EL element, it is preferable to keep air tightness by being cut off from air. At the time, by implementing the present invention, production yield can be largely improved and further the manufacturing cost can be reduced.
In the embodiment mode and Embodiments 1-6, since it is important not to expose the light emitting element to oxygen and moisture after the light emitting element is formed, the encapsulating process according to the present invention is, in all cases, carried out in an inert atmosphere or in a vacuum.
An inert atmosphere is a space filled with nitrogen or rare gas (representatively, helium, argon, or neon), and is sometimes referred to as a glove box. In the present invention, since the series of processes described with reference to
For example, in a clean room, the place where an apparatus which carries out the series of encapsulating processes described with reference to
Further, it is also possible to make the clean room, where an apparatus which carries out the series of encapsulating processes described with reference to
A light emitting device formed by implementing the present invention has superior visibility in bright locations in comparison to a liquid crystal display device because it is a self-emissive type device, and moreover its angle of vision is wide. Accordingly, it can be used as a display portion for various electronic equipment. For example, for appreciation of TV broadcasts by large screen, it is appropriate to use a display of the present invention incorporating the light emitting device in its casing and having a diagonal equal to 20 to 60 inches.
Note that all displays for exhibiting information such as a personal computer display, a TV broadcast reception display, or an advertisement display are included as the display incorporating a light emitting device in its casing. Further, the light emitting device of the present invention can be used as a display portion of the other various electronic equipment.
The following can be given as examples of such electronic equipment: a video camera; a digital camera; a goggle type display (head mounted display); a car navigation system; an audio reproducing device (such as a car audio system, an audio compo system); a notebook personal computer; a game equipment; a portable information terminal (such as a mobile computer, a mobile telephone, a mobile game equipment or an electronic book); and an image playback device provided with a recording medium (specifically, a device which performs playback of a recording medium and is provided with a display which can display those images, such as a digital video disk (DVD)). In particular, because portable information terminals are often viewed from a diagonal direction, the wideness of the angle of vision is regarded as very important. Thus, it is preferable that the EL display device is employed. Examples of these electronic equipment are shown in
Note that in the future if the emission luminance becomes higher, the projection of light including outputted images can be enlarged by lenses, optical fiber, or the like. Then it will become possible to use the light emitting device in a front type or a rear type projector.
The emitting portion of the light emitting device consumes power, and therefore it is preferable to display information so as to have the emitting portion become as small as possible. Therefore, when using the light emitting device in a display portion which mainly displays character information, such as a portable information terminal, in particular, a portable telephone and an audio reproducing device, it is preferable to drive it by setting non-emitting portions as background and forming character information in emitting portions.
The range of applications of the present invention is thus extremely wide, and it is possible to apply the present invention to electronic equipment in all fields. Furthermore, any constitution of the light emitting device shown in Embodiments 1 to 6 may be employed in the electronic equipment of Embodiment 8.
In case an electric apparatus having as its display portion a light emitting device according to the present invention is used outdoors, of course the display portion is viewed sometimes when it is dark and sometimes when it is light. Though, when it is dark, what is displayed can be sufficiently recognized even if the luminance is not so high, when it is light, what is displayed may not be recognized if the luminance is not high.
With regard to a light emitting device, since the luminance varies in proportion to the current or the voltage for operating the element, if the luminance is required to be higher, the power consumption has to be increased accordingly. However, if the level of the luminance of light emission is adjusted to be so high, when it is dark, the display is much brighter than needed with the power consumption being unnecessarily large.
In order to provide for such a case, it is effective to provide a light emitting device according to the present invention with a function to sense with a sensor the brightness of the environment and to adjust the luminance of light emission according to the extent of the brightness. More specifically, the luminance of light emission is made high when it is light, while the luminance of light emission is made low when it is dark. As a result, a light emitting device which can prevent the power consumption from increasing and which does not make the user feel fatigued can be materialized.
It is to be noted that, as such a sensor for sensing the brightness of the environment, a CMOS sensor or a CCD (charge-coupled device) can be used. Such a CMOS sensor may be conventionally integrally formed on a substrate where a light emitting element is formed, or a semiconductor chip having the CMOS sensor formed thereon may be attached to the outside. Further, a semiconductor chip having such a CCD formed thereon may be attached to a substrate where a light emitting element is formed, or a part of the electric apparatus having as its display portion the light emitting device may be structured to be provided with the CCD or the CMOS sensor.
A control circuit for changing the current or the voltage for operating the light emitting element in response to a signal obtained by the sensor for sensing the brightness of the environment is provided, by which the luminance of light emission of the light emitting element can be adjusted according to the brightness of the environment. It is to be noted that such adjustment may be made either automatically or manually.
It is to be noted that the structure of the present embodiment can be implemented in any electric apparatus described in Embodiment 8.
By implementing the present invention, in a multilayout process for manufacturing a plurality of light emitting devices from one large-sized substrate, the throughput and the yield can be improved.
Further, since an existing line for manufacturing liquid crystal display devices can be diverted, the cost of the investment in plant and equipment can be reduced, and the manufacturing cost can be greatly reduced. Since the manufacturing cost can be reduced, the cost of the light emitting device can be reduced, and further, the cost of an electric apparatus using such a light emitting device can also be reduced.

The following letter was recently discovered in the Palo Alto Historic Association files. It was sent by the Palo Alto Historical Association at some date in the late 1940's or early 1950's. It prefaces the following lists of names suggested to the City Council for use in naming streets and parks at a time of great growth in the City.
William H. Clarke
City of Palo Alto
In accordance with your letter of August 22, I have proceeded to formulate plans to meet your request as covered in your letter.
A meeting of an Ad Hoc Committee of Board members of the Palo Alto Historical Association was held on August 28 at the Chamber of Commerce offices. At this meeting a copy of your letter and attachment was handed to the committee members. It was agreed that each member would submit a list of names to me by August 31, the date of our regular board meeting. The committee consisted of the following:
Judge Egerton Lakin
H. L. "Pete" Anderson
Mr. Emmett Fitzpatrick, Vice President of the Association, was also in attendance.
We had a thorough going discussion of the request and according to the agreed upon procedure, member's lists were submitted and have been consolidated in the attached report prepared by Ken Wilson.
In considering the names submitted it was decided to also include those submitted by Wally Carroll, Assistant to the City Manager, so that no candidate would be overlooked. An attempt has been made in the attachment to list the names in some order of preference in accordance with your request. As you might well imagine, this is a difficult thing to do. As it stands, it merely represents the order of rank determined by the names submitted on the members lists, i. e. , if all members were in agreement on a candidate, he would receive a count of eight, and so on in order.
In proceeding in this manner, unscientific as it is, it will give ycu some indication of preference, although names included in some of the categories were the individual choice of certain members. Under these circumstances it was decided to include all names submitted. Thus, you will note under "Prominent Citizens", the names listed under the heading were endorsed by two or more members, then follows the balance of the names submitted.
Undoubtedly, there are many other names that are worthy of consideration, particularly under the "Founding Fathers" category for Stanford. We do not consider the report as the last work on this subject. It would be better labelled as a beginning. Your committee and other members of the Council could well have disagreement with the selection and have qualified views on omissions and additions.
Two other related matters came up as a part of our discussion about which you might wish to give consideration. The first had to do with the possibility of a downtown park associated with the proposed site of the new library. If such is the case it has been suggested that the names of Julia Gilbert and Ann Hadden be considered. As you know, both were engaged in early day library activities and made outstanding contributions in this respect. The other suggestion had to do with street names. Originally, when the City was plotted, many of the streets were named for famous authors. Since then there have been many well- known authors as citizens, such as Howard Pease, Helen Roberts, Francis Rand Smith, Pansy Alden and her son Raymond Alden, the Norrises, Albert Gerrard, Edith Merrilees, Marjory Bailey, William Herbert Carruth, Edward Beach and others. The thought here is that there may be some possibility to use these names in some future sub-division within the City.
I sincerely hope that our meagre efforts will be useful in your task of naming public facilities. If we can be of any further service in this respect we will be most happy to be your devoted servants.
Guy P. Wallick,
Ad Hoc Committee on Place Name, Palo Alto Historical Association

When He Still Has Feelings For The Other Woman
Author: Katie Lersch
I often get emails from people who are trying to heal from infidelity in their marriage. Despite the shock and the pain, they are willing to do the hard work to save the marriage. However, there is a very big something that is standing in their way – and that is, their husband still has feelings for the other woman.
I often hear things like: “my husband says he wants to stay and wants to save the marriage after the affair. The problem is that he recently admitted to me that he still has feelings for the other woman. How am I supposed to trust that he actually wants to be with me and isn’t longing for her? Am I just wasting my time? Am I just setting myself up for heartbreak here? What should I do?” I’ll share with you the advice that I often give in the following article.
Focus On You And Your Husband, Not On Your Husband And The Other Woman: I know that you’re often going to want to ask your spouse how he’s feeling right now or if he (or she) is thinking about, fantasizing about, or dreaming about the other person.
Try very hard to resist this urge. The last thing that you want to do is to draw his attention back to the other person or to let the thought or conversations about them impede your progress. This is YOUR spouse. This is YOUR marriage. This other person has no business having a place here.
Although you may know this intellectually, emotionally this can be a real struggle. I understand this. But, you must talk about this in your journal or with a trusted friend, not with your spouse. Because dwelling on this is destructive on so many levels and your lack of confidence is going to make you feel more doubtful and less attractive and these things can so easily bleed into your marriage and in your attempts to save it.
People will often say to me, “yes, but shouldn’t I be honest? Aren’t we supposed to be telling each other how we are really feeling? Yes, that’s true. But there is fine line between moving forward and stepping back. You want to move toward the future, not in the past. You should absolutely share your feelings, but it’s so much better to focus on the feelings between the two of you, not the two of them. Because if you do, you run a real risk of making him think about her far too much.
You don’t want to give him any reason to contemplate her and you do not want to contribute toward him defending her. Basically, you want to give the impression that you are worried about him and you, not about you.
Does Absence Make The Heart Grow Fonder?: I had a wife make a really good point to me the other day. She said “if I try to keep him away from her or his mind off of her, won’t that just make him want her more? Isn’t it better to sort of let him get her out of his system so that we don’t just keep on revising this? I think that this is a very dangerous way of going about it. This is just allowing him to live in the past and allowing him not to make a choice.
In truth, if he still has really strong feelings for her, then he should resolve this before he commits to saving this marriage. With that said, it’s normal to feel some sense of loss when a relationship (however wrong it was) must abruptly end without “closure.” Some people will mistake this for remaining feelings. Often, if you just leave this alone, it will lessen over time and you will look that much more attractive and will be in a much better position as the result.
Your real goal should be to make your marriage a newly fulfilling one with new discoveries and things to look forward to so that he no longer needs to dwell in the past. Sometimes, there will be an adjustment period until you get over the hump and can start doing this. Just wait it out. Because if you keep bringing every discussion back to her, you’re giving her way more power than she deserves. Bring his attention to you, not to her.
What If My Spouse Is Pouting Or Distant Because They Are Missing The Person They Cheated With?: The other day, I had a man say that his wife was just not participating in the marriage because she was struggling with missing the other man. I told him to give it a few days to see if she would eventually snap out of this. But, after a while, he should just tell her that it’s very obvious that she isn’t present in the marriage or interested in saving it and that she should perhaps take a break or have some alone time to sort out her feelings.
Because it wasn’t fair for anyone to continue on like this. Either this wife wanted to go forward with the marriage (even with her doubts and unresolved feelings) or she didn’t. The husband of course felt that this was too risky. He was afraid that she would decide to stay with the other man during her break.
But guess what, he did it anyway, even though he was terrified. And guess what else? She eventually showed up at their home full of apologies and pleas that he allow her to work with him toward saving the marriage. Of course, one of the requirements for this was that she was sure she could leave the other man behind. She assured him that she could. I firmly believe that they would not be at this place if he hadn’t demanded that she make this choice. You deserve his or her full attention, but it may take a little while to get to this place.
I know that even contemplating your spouse’s “other person” is painful and difficult, but make sure that you don’t give them more power than they deserve. And, healing is often closer than you may think. It took a lot of work and patience, but today my marriage is actually stronger than it ever was before. I also did a lot of work on myself and am happier as the result. Our bond and intimacy is much stronger and my self esteem is at an all time high. I no longer worry my husband will cheat again.

Some workers are getting big pay rises, but many are not
Australia is facing a two-speed wage economy with workers in some sectors including finance, law, accounting and construction notching up big pay rises while others, like nurses, struggle to hit even 2 per cent a year.
The Reserve Bank of Australia wants to see broad wages growth north of 3 per cent to feel confident inflation is sustainably within its target band, which has not happened since March 2013.
The average fulltime worker in mining would need a $4200 raise this year to top 3 per cent; people working in health care and social services need about $2650; while those working in retail would need a $2000 bump.
Professional white-collar workers would need about $3200 more a year, and the anecdotal evidence suggests they may get that, and more. Some firms are offering pay rises of between 10 per cent and 40 per cent to keep staff.
The RBA itself admitted this week it was struggling to keep economists and analysts who can earn many multiples of their public sector salaries working for private finance firms.
Andrew McKellar, chief executive of the Australian Chamber of Commerce and Industry, said the picture for wages was still “quite mixed” but his instinct was that broad 3 per cent pay rises were “absolutely possible.”
Labour market economist Jeff Borland warned against drawing conclusions from anecdotal evidence in specific sectors. Workers in so-called “other services”, for example, experienced the strongest wages growth in the year to June 30, but account for just 3.8 per cent of total jobs.
“The fact there may be competition in hospitality or professional services doesn’t mean that will result out in a higher rate of wage inflation overall,” Professor Borland said.
“In the June quarter there was a lot of discussion about demand imbalance, yet wage inflation was only 0.4 per cent [over the quarter and 1.7 per cent over the year], what it was before COVID-19.”
Just three sectors recorded wage price growth above 2 per cent in the year to June 30: construction, professional and scientific services and other services, which includes professions such as hairdressers and beauty salons.
More than 70 per cent of jobs had wages growth below 2 per cent.
Professor Borland said it was quite likely there would be higher wages growth over the six months to March 30, 2022 due to various “imbalances” in the labour market, including the closed international border.
“In the short term, we may see wage inflation at the 3 per cent level, in late 2021 or early-2022, but we have to be careful about how much of that is just temporary factors rather than long-term. It is possible we will not see overall wage inflation but higher wage inflation in some sectors,” he said.
But two of the biggest employing sectors – health and education – are facing dire wage prospects in coming years despite strong demand for labour. This is because they are limited by state government wage caps, which in NSW, for example, amounts to pay rises of up to 2 per cent a year.
Brett Holmes, secretary of the Nursing and Midwifery Association in NSW, which employs the most health care workers of all the states, said a 3 per cent pay rise was in effect not possible given the state wages cap.
“Because of those low wage outcomes [in the public hospitals] the private sector now sees no need to continue to offer further increases,” Mr Holmes said. The sector only has to keep pace, it doesn’t feel it needs to compete … certainly nowhere near the 3 per cent rate.”
The country’s biggest health care operator, Ramsay Healthcare, delivered wage rises of 1.5 per cent and 2 per cent a year to NSW nurses in its latest agreement voted up this year. Epworth Healthcare paid 3963 nurses increase of 2.4 per cent a year in a four-year agreement approved recently.
Independent Education Union federal assistant secretary Anthony Odgers said nationally the sector was bargaining agreements with average pay rises of 2.5 to 2.8 per cent for the next two to three years.
Mr Odgers said the non-government school sector, aside from a small group of elite schools, were in parity with government schools on pay, meaning the state wage caps were “by far the single greatest determinant” of wage rises.
Health care, social assistance accounts and education and training account for about 22 per cent of jobs (both filled and vacant), according to the latest June Labour Account published by the Australian Bureau of Statistics.

When Sony first announced its 24-inch, 240Hz PlayStation 3D Display at E3 back in June, the included game was heavy-hitting shooter Resistance 3. That has since been replaced with MotorStorm Apocalypse, but the $499 bundle now has a set release window of November and pre-order bonus of Resistance 3 if you place the order by September 30th. Funny how things come full circle.
Of course, if you might've already guessed as much if you checked out the listings via Amazon, Walmart, or GameStop. Soon after Sony made the switch in early August, those retailers started touting the threequel as a pre-order bonus. That deal is now official by way of Sony, as well.
The PlayStation 3D Display is one part 3DTV and one part "SimulView" multiplayer for two players getting separate fullscreen images at the same time (glasses required for both players). So far only two games have been announced to support the overlapping output — you'll never guess which. For a more visual explanation, check out the new promo video after the break.

Hand Woven Bag from Mexico. These Manos Zapotecas bags are hand woven in the mountains of Teotitlan, a Zapotec community of Oaxaca, Southern Mexico. Each bag is a traditional design and each weaver is identifiable. THIS bag was woven by Maria Luisa and finished by her Husband Louis. Each bag is Fair Trade certified. • This is the Diamond and Arrow Design, approximately 18" x 14" * Double leather handles • Lined Interior • Interior pocket • Zipper closure • 100% wool • Hand dyed • Hand woven • Fair Trade Zapotec people have had weaving in their blood stretching back to 500 B.C. Before the Spanish conquest in the 1500′s, their fine cotton textiles were traded all over Mesoamerica. Later the Spanish brought sheep to the weavers in Teotitlán del Valle, so they could make blankets out of wool. The friars taught the Zapotec men to treadle upright looms, and the tradition of weaving wool blankets and serapes became an integral part of daily life. Prior to the 1548 introduction of wool by the Spanish, Zapotec weavers used cotton, cactus fiber, and horse hair. The introduction of wool however gave the weavers a new material- New is relative, being more than 400 years ago. Traditional patterns were literally woven into the new materials. ...Maria Luisa enjoys every part of the weaving process, it’s combining colors that really makes her artistic heart sing. Her purses are studies in subtle and complementary color-blocking and traditional patterns. José Luis didn’t begin to weave until he married Maria Luisa more than 20 years ago. One of 11 children in a farming family, he had learned to sew when he was a student in Veracruz. He does the stitching and leather finish, with near-perfect seams and detailing. The family lives in Tlacochahuaya, a small town just a few miles away from Teotitlán del Valle, where most of the other Manos Zapotecas weavers live. “Weaving is our life now,” she says, “and it is a life full of color.” When you walk into a family home in Teotitlan, you will feel like you have walked back in time. There are usually at least four large treadle looms, the same type brought by the Spaniards so long ago. Each loom will have a different work on it, with various family members devoting hours each day to the long process. you will also see hanging skeins of yarn in shades of every imaginable color. Many of the families in Teotitlan are completely devoted to using only natural dyes which are concocted from a large variety of plant, animal and mineral sources.

The Supermarine Spitfire Mk.XIV was a single engine, single seat fighter which served with the Royal Air Force during the Second World War. In 1941 the Spitfire Mk.IV was the first Spitfire to be trialed with the new Rolls Royce Griffon engine. By the time the Griffon Spitfire entered service with the RAF in February 1943, subsequent modifications had redesignated the aircraft as the Spitfire Mk.XII. As successful as this new Spitfire was at low altitudes, the Mk.XII’s performance was actually inferior to the Merlin engine Mk.IX at medium and high altitudes. Thus, the Spitfire Mk.XIV entered service as an interim fix. Fitted with a Rolls Royce Griffon 65 with two-stage supercharger producing 2050 hp, the Mk.XIV immediately corrected many of the performance shortcomings suffered by the Mk.XII. The fuselage was strengthened to harness the powerful engine and a five bladed Rotol propeller replaced the earlier four bladed examples. Early models were fitted with the Type C wing although later Mk.XIVs were equipped with the Type E wing housing two 20mm Hispano cannons and two .50 caliber Browning machine guns or four 20mm cannons, as well as a high visibility teardrop canopy. A common modification to the Mk.XIV was the clipped wing, which increased roll rate and gave a marginal increase to speed, but at the most of rate of climb. The Spitfire Mk.XIV entered service with Nos. 91, 322 and 610 Squadrons in southeast England where it saw notable success as an interceptor against V-1 Flying Bombs but also as part of the 2nd Tactical Air Force in operations over occupied Europe. Spitfire Mk.XIVs were also planned for use in the Far East but whilst a number of airframes were shipped to Burma, none were operational before the end of the war. The Spitfire Mk.XIV met mixed reviews from its pilots; whilst there was no doubt of the huge performance increase the new variant offered, it was uncomfortable to fly and lacked the balance and control harmonization of earlier Merlin engine Spitfires. Just under 1000 Spitfire Mk.XIVs were produced with exports being employed by the Air Forces of India, Belgium and Thailand.

By becoming aware of how you run your life, and why, you can begin to CHANGE YOUR LIFE and have it look the way you want it to.5/5(2). The religion of life force energy By Marcia Montenegro, May, The concept of energy and vibrations is at the heart of New Age and occult beliefs, especially New Age and occult healing.*.
Pantheism fosters a mind that accepts the world: a mind alert to vibrant reality, in touch with the senses, receptive to the energy of the body and the universe. A mind fully awake to nature, open to new knowledge, responsive to the beauty of the natural world.
The New Age pantheist, however, sees that energy as the ‘all is One’ that is a non-personal God.” 20 Endorsing Dr. Harold Saxton Burr’s Electrodynamic Theory of Life, Kline concludes that “there is a deeper level of life beneath the physical and chemical levels we normally measure — an electrical level that is ultimately responsible.
SYNOPSIS: Essentially a self-help workbook on creativity, this life-changing book coaxes readers along a spiritual, artistic path. With tasks to complete at the end of each chapter, reading this book Missing: Energy.
The word energy comes from the Greek “en” (in, within) + “ergon” (work), in its simplest form energy is defined as the capacity, ability or power inherent within to do work or produce change. I especially love that last part, the power inherent within it that enables it to accomplish a specific end.
Defining the concept of God as energy. causing collisions between the fragments, releasing further energy Energy somehow gave rise to life. Life adapted and evolved itself by mutation and intercourse. As more work is carried out in the scientific field and the religious field, I think that energy and God will gradually fuse together.

They can teach us, move us, give us. These four claims do all bear on some kind of larger argument connecting religion and spirituality to physical health, but they do not do so in the same way. Each is embedded in a very distinct culture of biomedical or behavioral research, and each stands in quite a distinct relationship to religion.
Until the s (for reasons I will discuss in. Biological life would not be possible without chemical interactions. In turn, chemical interactions would not be possible without physical interactions, and no physical interaction occurs that does not involve an energy exchange; consequently, all biological processes depend upon energy exchanges.

Birmingham gets the Habit
Benjamin Britten, sailing uncomfortably close to the wind with his new opera, Death in Venice, seeks advice from his former collaborator and friend, W H Auden. During this imagined meeting, their first for twenty-five years, they are observed and interrupted by, amongst others, their future biographer and a young man from the local bus station.
Alan Bennett’s new play is as much about the theatre as it is about poetry or music. It looks at the unsettling desires of two difficult men, and at the ethics of biography. It reflects on growing old, on creativity and inspiration, and on persisting when all passion’s spent: ultimately, on the habit of art.
The Habit Of Art is Alan Bennett’s fifth play for the National Theatre. His last play, The History Boys, opened at the Lyttelton in 2004, toured nationally (including a sell-out run at The REP) and internationally, and played for two seasons in the West End and on Broadway. Among its many awards were the Laurence Olivier, Tony and Critics Circle Awards for Best Play and the South Bank Show Award for Theatre.
Desmond Barrit and Malcolm Sinclair lead the cast of The Habit Of Art as W H Auden and Benjamin Britten respectively. The production is directed by Nicholas Hytner and is designed by Bob Crowley, with lighting by Mark Henderson, music by Matthew Scott and sound by Paul Groothuis.

Theres a very good reason why the IG go low-tech with communications aside from environmental, resources and technical reasons- signals intelligence.
You only give comm gear to specialists, because they're trained to scuttle it in the event that the gear is or might be captured, in the event every Joe Guard is running around with a bug in his ear, all it takes is just one of them to fall into the wrong hands by any means and that's it, your whole communications system is wide open and you will be completely boned.
Admiral Yamamoto, flying along quite happily- got blown up by P38's because they got through the low level encrypt on his movements. Battle of Midway, JN-25 was cracked by the allies and the Japanese failed to roll out a new codebook- 4 to 1 losses to their fleet which they never recovered from. Capture of U-559, most of the crypto & its enigma machine captured, massive amount of bombe machines where made to crack German codes for the rest of the war as the possibility of it being cracked was the 'least of all security problems'
Look at how Osama bin Laden went low tech for years sending out messages, he used couriers with a USB stick that wandered into internet cafes or to other cells and while it was known he used them, they where next to impossible to intercept due to the 'physical' aspect of someone just delivering it manually. I worked for 5 years in a technical role 'finding' (mostly f**king horrible) people with signal intercepts and traces, 5 years on, still write the application architecture, ops proceedures and deliver projects in that scope from time to time when new technology comes in. If theres one thing to be learned from that is that you mostly catch the 'smart' ones when they screw up and the dumber ones never figure out just how wide open they are, all the time.

Central Tri-State Tollway fix moving forward
A $4 billion project to widen the Central Tri-State Tollway (I-294) is gaining momentum.
Members of the Illinois tollway's Customer Service and Planning Committee approved a proposal to add a lane in each direction of I-294 between 95th Street in the South Suburbs and Balmoral Avenue in Rosemont. The tentative plan also calls for a "Flex Lane" that could involve using the inside shoulder lane for express buses or traffic in gridlock situations.
Tollway Chairman Robert Schillerstrom said the project wouldn't require raising tolls and will improve gridlock, but it faces opposition. Towns along the I-294 corridor such as Oak Brook are concerned about lowered home values and air pollution.
The full board will consider the proposal Thursday.

Next year, 2009, will be the 150th year since evangelism began in 1859 in Yokohama. The Kyodan considers this to be an appropriate year to regard with special remembrance. Of course, celebrations are being planned not only by the Kyodan but also by the wider Japanese Christian community, such as a gathering under the theme "Commemorating 150 Years of Mission" being planned by the Japan Evangelical Association and the National Christian Council in Japan and the "150 Years of Protestant Evangelism" event to be held by Kyodan volunteers.
"The History of the Founding of the Kyodan," which was released on Oct. 26, 1956, records that "evangelical Christianity in our country originated with the evangelistic activities of a foreign missionary who arrived in 1859 (the sixth year of the Ansei Era); and on Feb. 2 (according to the old calendar) in 1872 (the fifth year of the Meiji Era), the Nihon Kirisuto Kokai was founded in Yokohama as the first Christian church." One opinion held is that the evangelism done in Okinawa by an Episcopalian missionary, Bethelhiem, should be regarded as the "beginning of evangelism in Japan," but at that time Okinawa was the Ryukyu nation and not part of Japan, so this date was not adopted. Also, in the past, 100 years of evangelism was celebrated in 1959; and the fact that many churches celebrated the 50th year and the 100th year of evangelism, recognizing 1859 as the beginning date, requires a like appraisal of history.
The Kyodan Executive Council, at its third meeting of the 35th General Assembly period, approved the establishment of a "committee on preparation of events commemorating the 150th year of evangelism in Japan" and elected Kobayashi Tadao, a member of Kusakabe Church, as chairperson and Fujikake Junichi, pastor of Yokohama Shiro Church, as secretary. In subsequent Executive Council meetings, reports from that committee have been received and approved.
In naming related events in the past, the word senkyo (missionary preaching and teaching) has been used, but it would seem that this word indicates consciousness of "unfolding teachings" through the work of missionaries sent by overseas mission bodies. However, as we approach the 150th year of commemoration today, most of the foreign mission organizations have withdrawn; and it has become an age of independent dendo (communication of the way) by Japanese people. So deliberately and with an awareness of these developments, it has been decided to hold the events as a commemoration of "the 150th year of evangelism (not mission) in Japan."
The main plans are for the following:
?? (1) The theme of the events:? "Christ Indeed My Savior"
? ? ? ? Scripture:? I Corinthians 1: 18~25
? ? ? ? The aim:? To affirm that our salvation is in the forgiveness of sin through the cross of?
?? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? our Lord ?
?? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? Jesus Christ, and to stand firmly in that salvation and develop a new evangelism
? (2) Commemorative events:?
?? ? ? ? ? ? 1. A 150th year of evangelism in Japan ceremony on ? Nov. 23, 2009?
?? ? ? ? ? ? 2. A 150th year of evangelism commemorative worship service on June 24, 2009,?
? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? celebrating the foundation of the Kyodan
? ? ? ? ? ? 3. The publication of a "150th year of evangelism in Japan" commemorative book?
?? (3) Commemorative fundraising.? Goal amount:? 5,000,000 yen? (Tr. RB)
Katsuyama Ken'ichiro, executive secretary

Reports show that 2.4 million b/d of refinery capacity is confirmed shut and a total of 4.4 million b/d of operable refinery capacity. According to S&P Global Platts reports also say that, “Occidental declares force majeure as cold shuts in Permian oil 50% of wind power still down Shell confirms Deer Park, Texas facility has shut down due to unprecedented weather. The most reliable form of energy through this crisis which is natural gas has been hampered because of the inability to heat crude and pipelines because the fact that wind and solar failures have caused a great unbalance to the grid.” For the futures markets in oil and gas and distillate, this is why we are seeing those prices hit 13-month highs.
Yet while the weather is speeding up the process, the reality is that the fundamentals of oil and gas have been bullish. With more vaccine rollouts and global demand rising, we are seeing the market move towards a global deficit situation. The Biden administration is not encouraging investment in any fossil fuels which will help add to the deficit. While OPEC has spare capacity and plans to raise output in April, the trend of the supply curve means that we’ll probably too late to avoid a squeeze.
Besides, Saudi Arabia seems like they are in no hurry to get there. Saudi Arabia’s energy minister Prince Abdulaziz says, “it’s too early to declare victory against the virus” and caution needs to be taken. The football match is still being played, and it is too early to celebrate and declare any victory against the virus. The referee is yet to blow the final whistle,” said the prince according to Reuters.
The $63.00 mark is a big resistance for WTI. We have options expiring on oil! Be on guard for another spike higher! We believe some wounded bears may have to cover. Don’t underestimate the possibility of another leg higher. RBOB gasoline futures are roaring as pump prices should jump 9 to 10 cents a gallon at the pump and maybe more if they can’t get the refineries back online.
March natural gas is above $3.00 and if this cold blast happened a month ago, the would have been above $4.00. Power producers may be forced out of business after these record surges in spot prices.

Systematic Sampling at Novo’s Egina Mining Lease Yields Positive ‘MAK’ Gold Results
VANCOUVER, British Columbia, July 08, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Novo Resources Corp. (“Novo” or the “Company”) (TSX-V: NVO; OTCQX: NSRPF) is pleased to report positive mobile alluvial Knudson (“MAK”) sampling results from across its 100% owned Egina mining lease, M47/560, indicating widespread gold potential within terrace gravels. The Egina mining lease is a small part of the Company’s overall terrace holdings, representing approximately 5 sq km out of nearly 2,500 sq km, but these systematic sample results provide an encouraging picture of how gold might prove to be distributed over broader parts of the project. Novo’s 2020 Egina exploration program is now ramped back up to full capacity.
Summary:MAK sampling has continued apace since Novo resumed its 2020 field season a few weeks ago following a minor delay resulting from COVID-19 restrictions which have since been eased. A further 342 MAK samples have been collected and processed from targeted terrace gravels across much of M47/560. Novo’s 2019 exploration program focused on MAK sampling, trenching and bulk sampling within a restricted test area focusing on a swale in the north-eastern corner of this mining lease (Figure 1). MAK sampling currently continues across the mining lease, but areas sampled thus far in the north-west and south are painting an encouraging picture.Discovery of new gold targets during MAK sampling at Northwest EginaThrough MAK sampling, Novo has identified significant expanses of gold-bearing gravels in the northwestern quadrant of M47/560 immediately north of an area of low rolling hills (Figure 2).Gold-bearing gravels are indicatively tested by excavating approximately 1 tonne grab samples from shallow, 1-2 m deep pits dug across the gravel profile that are then processed using Novo’s MAK test equipment. Gold is reported in point counts of particles captured in concentrate.The next phase of exploration in this area will encompass bulk sampling of 30-50 cubic m of gravel that is then processed through the Company’s IGR 3000 alluvial test plant to quantify grades.Aggressive sampling work is being conducted on the Egina mining lease early in the 2020 exploration program because, given that M47/560 is a granted mining lease, the Company sees this area as a suitable location and fastest path for trial bulk extraction and processing of gravels.Broad areas of encouraging MAK results from South EginaSimilar to MAK sampling results from Northwestern Egina, Novo is seeing encouraging MAK samples from expansive areas within the southern portion of M47/560 immediately south of the low rolling hills mentioned above.MAK sample results in several locations display higher point counts than MAK samples from the 2019 test swale.Infill MAK sampling is on-going at South Egina and will help guide future larger scale bulk sampling in which coherent gold zones will be subject to collection of 30-50 cubic m bulk samples that can be processed through the Company’s IGR 3000 alluvial test plant. Like Northwest Egina, the Company sees opportunity for trial bulk extraction and processing of gravels at South Egina given that M47/560 is a granted mining lease.IGR 3000 alluvial test plant resumes operationNovo anticipates processing at least 120, 30-50 cubic m bulk samples through its IGR 3000 alluvial test plant over the next 6 months.In the near-term, such bulk samples will be collected from the newly recognized Paradise gold-bearing gravel target approximately 12 km north of the Egina mining lease as well from the areas on M47/560 discussed above.Later in the season, Novo anticipates collecting bulk samples for processing from additional new gold-bearing gravel discoveries recognized by MAK sampling.2020 Field season plansMultiple additional prospective gravel targets have been identified across the greater Egina terrace gold project. Novo will conduct MAK sampling at these targets within previously heritage-cleared areas. At least 1,100 MAK samples are scheduled for completion.Additional new heritage surveys are tentatively planned for this calendar year, including extensions to the Paradise gold-bearing gravel target. New heritage survey areas will be further prioritized as exploration progresses. Novo is currently targeting further heritage surveys with the Kariyarra Aboriginal Corporation to begin in September 2020, COVID-19 dependent.Novo’s team has recently identified prospective gravels at the Aspen target on Exploration License E47/2502. These gravels are possibly linked with those discovered at Paradise, approximately 5 km to the south, earlier this year (please refer to the Company’s news release dated May 26, 2020)Late in 2020, Novo anticipates collecting and trucking some bulk samples to its mechanical sorting plant at Purdy’s Reward, approximately 50 km south of the city of Karratha, once commissioned. Mechanical sorting of Egina gravel material is seen as a potentially viable means of gold recovery.As a demonstration of best practice environmental land management, all MAK sampling pits and bulk sample sites will be progressively rehabilitated in line with Novo’s intent to demonstrate this deposit can be excavated and reclaimed to its original state in a responsible manner.“We are seeing expansive areas within the Egina mining lease that are yielding MAK results as good or better than our test area of 2019,” commented Quinton Hennigh, President and Chairman of Novo Resources. “In comparison, the 2019 test area is now clearly small in light of what we are discovering in the northwestern and southern parts of M47/560. Setting aside the area of low hills in the west central region of the mining lease where we cannot conduct sampling, it appears that perhaps around 30% of the terrace displays MAK gold point counts in line with the 2019 test swale, and, importantly, surrounding areas display appreciable low level gold point counts similar to those seen outside the swale last year. This data gives us our first real impression of how gold may be distributed within this system, and we are very encouraged, especially given the vast size of this target. With our IGR 3000 test plant back on line, we are eager to commence large scale bulk sampling on the mining lease very soon.” Description of MAK sampling process:MAK samples are collected from pits spaced approximately 50 m apart across targeted areas. Pits are dug by track hoe and range up to 3 m depth. Targeted sample size is approximately one tonne. Samples are placed in wooden crates lined with bulka bags and transported to Novo’s Station Peak camp where they are processed through a mobile alluvial Knudsen centrifugal concentrator plant. Concentrates are panned down to reveal gold for point counting and further study.Description of bulk sampling process:Large scale, 30-50 cubic m bulk samples are collected from pits approximately 6 m wide and 6 m long. Depth of pits varies from about 1-3 m. Sandy soil overburden is generally stripped prior to gravel extraction.

Over the last few days, I have been thinking much about the founding documents of the United States, the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution. There actually is another document that most people forget about (since it is not binding today in any way), the Articles of Confederation. This was the treaty that bound together the very independent “countries” (States) from shortly after the Declaration until the Constitution was adopted in 1789.
What has always impressed me in these documents, besides the language, has been their simplicity. One could almost see Franklin, Adams, and Jefferson sitting in their rooms in Philadelphia (the rooms, if I recall correctly, still stand not far from Independence Hall and are a moving visit) and tacking a sign up on the wall: “Keep It Simple Stupid!” Likely, though, they would have used somewhat more formal language.
The Articles of Confederation were superseded not because their language or structure itself failed, nor due to their rigidity, but because the structure they meant to embody was unworkable. The States were placed at each other’s throats, usually competitive, sometimes physically, the federal government was too weak to deal with any real external threats or even negotiate with any authority, and the entire structure was at risk of imploding. The Articles themselves, though, were clear and concise, laying out large borders of responsibility and authority.
The Constitution, while longer, is still tiny by the standards of modern law, let alone the still-failed EU Constitution. The US Constitution consists of ~4,000 words over 11 pages; the EU Constitution is 70,000 words long and runs over 800 pages, including all the declarations and definitions and preambles. The most recent large US legislation, the Affordable Care Act, is nearly 380,000 (!) words long, not including regulations written and yet to be determined.
There are two key related reasons to go for simplicity in any mission statement, vision, founding document, or law:
- Flexibility: simple guidelines give lots of freedom and room for individuals to work with the law as times evolve, rather than fight it, ignore it and eventually try to overhaul it. This gives it greater acceptance and staying power, i.e. longevity.
- Readability: Any reasonably educated person can read and understand the Declaration and Constitution; the Declaration is almost poetry in its ability to move people. Complex laws and statements, on the other hand, can only be read and understand by a professional class. Just about any person in the United States knows what the First Amendment is, and what “freedom of association” means. People can and do debate the limits and how they apply, but the principles instill themselves in people and motivate them.
In the business world, the same principle of simplicity holds. Microsoft’s famous vision of “a computer in every home,” inspired e at Microsoft, from CEO Gates down to the newest recruit. They understood and imbibed the mission and worked towards it. Conversely, companies with complex (often big-consulting-firm-driven) vision statements centered around details of their offerings often find themselves bogged down, with unmotivated people and difficulty selling. I had a client who tried to write a 3-line paragraph for a vision; I was able to turn it into a phrase of 6 words. Convincing them to use it, however, was another story; they were enamoured of their offerings, rather than the vision that would enable them to sell those offerings. As the saying goes, fall in love with solving the problem, not your solutions.
If you want your people, and your customers, to adopt your vision, believe in it, and work towards it, and give your organization longevity and growth, as Thomas Jefferson might say, “Keep It Simple.”

Why using Caustic Drain cleaners must be avoided
It’s easy to understand why a lot of people prefer using caustic drain cleaners for whatever type of drains they have in their house since the applications is very simple. All you have to do is pop open the container then pour the solutions into the drains and voila! The drain line is cleaned and it’s free from clogs. The truth is that using such chemical-based products must be avoided at all cost. Listed below are the reasons why you should not use caustic drain cleaners.
The chemicals can actually damage the pipes
A lot of people are not aware that the chemicals they’re using to clean the drains can actually deteriorate the pipes. It’s not just the drain pipeline that can be affected but the sewer pipes as well. Do note that some pipes may last longer than other types of pipe materials. For example: vitrified clay pipes can last longer than metallic types simply because clay pipes have higher resistance to corrosion. In the end, regular exposure to the caustic chemicals will render any pipes to damage and corrosion.
Chemical vapours can actually cause respiratory damage
The pipes are just secondary issues compared to how the chemical vapours can actually harm your respiratory system. The degree of damage will depend on how long you have been exposing yourself to the fumes, how sensitive you are when coming in contact with these chemicals, and the how much of the toxic compounds are in the drain cleaner you’re using. Either way, the potential harm brought by the caustic chemicals shouldn’t be ignored. If you are very allergic if you’re exposed to chemical compounds then you should really stay away from these chemical-based cleaners.
Harmful to the environment
Knowing how household products can affect the environment can be an issue for some homeowners. Using chemical-based cleaners has a negative effect on the environment since the compounds don’t decompose and will most likely become hazardous over time. Also, there is also a risk of the chemical compounds contaminating your water supply ―— especially if the drain pipes are near a water supply line.
It can kill the needed bacteria in your septic system
If you use a septic system in your home then you probably know the importance of having bacteria to process the wastes that are pumped in the septic tank. The chemicals from the cleaners can kill off the needed bacteria if it’s flushed in the septic tank ―— that’s how strong and harsh the components the cleaner is made of. The septic tank won’t be able to process the wastes effectively without the much needed help of the bacteria.
There are plenty of ways to maintain or clear the clogs without resorting to harsh drain cleaners. Using plungers or augers to clear the drains might seem like a lot of a work than using chemicals but it’s certainly safer, cleaner, and more effective. Furthermore, there are many homemade solutions that can help in cleaning and clearing the clogs without using strong chemicals.

For over a decade, the automotive media has been talking up "the electric car revolution" - a world where cars run on electric powertrains, can be re-charged for pennies, and where petrol and diesel consumption is all but eradicated. But until recently, it has been something of a pipe dream.
Now, however, UK sales of pure electric (EVs) and plug-in electric vehicles (PHEVs) has surpassed the 10% milestone, bolstered, no doubt, by the impending 2030 ban on sales of petrol and diesel cars.
In the UK, the best-selling PHEV is the Mitsubishi Outlander, comfortably ahead of the best-selling pure electric, the Nissan Leaf (the British version of which is built in Sunderland).
So is now the time to buy your first EV or PHEV?
Here are some reasons why you might consider it...
Charging up is cheaper than filling up
Over the course of its life, an EV will cost considerably less to keep charged up compared to a petrol or diesel vehicle. This is simply because on a per-mile basis, electricity is a lot cheaper than petrol.
Electric engines are simpler than internal combustion engines (ICEs); fewer moving parts equals less maintenance (and less cost to you).
Electric vehicles do not pollute the environment with CO2 the way petrols or diesels do. EVs are especially green if the electricity they use is also green - e.g. from wind, solar or hydro. There are some caveats, however: see below.
On Evs with CO2 emissions of less than 50g/km, a minimum top speed of 70mph, and a maximum price of £35,000, there is a grant of up to £2,500 available. This may change in the future (for instance, the maximum grant has already been lowered by £500, while the maximum price has been lowered by £15,000).
If you only travel a short distance to work every day, an EV could be ideal. For a daily drive of 30-40 miles, you'll probably only need to charge up once a week.
To put it crudely, the government will eventually outlaw the sale of new petrol and diesel cars. Equally, manufacturers will wind down production of ICEs in the coming years. This means you have less than nine years to make the switch.
There may come a time when no-body will want to buy a petrol or diesel car any longer. It may therefore be wise to sell yours before second hand prices collapse - although we are a long way off from that at present.

Established car makers like Nissan (Leaf) and Renault (Zoe) have built reliable, affordable EVs, while Tesla has dominated the higher-end segment with its Model 3 and Model X, with stiff competition from BMW (i3, 330e). But there's a whole host of exciting new EVs just around the corner. The all-electric Lucid Air will soon be debuting in the US, while Nio's EC6 SUV EV has been making waves stateside too. These models - and others - will eventually reach the UK. The idea is that manufacturers will plough profits from their higher-end models into cheaper production models.
With an EV you won't have to pay the London congestion charge or the ULEZ charge. Other UK cities are adopting similar charges for polluting vehicles, which you'll avoid with a pure EV.
The UK charging network is still developing, so it's not easy to plan long journeys. Charge points are nowhere near as common as petrol pumps, so you could end up stranded if you run out of "juice".
The Tesla Model S 'long range' costs from £73,990 to £138,990, while the mid-range BMW 320D costs around £35,000. One of the cheapest EVs though is the Renault Zoe, at £25,670, with 220 miles of range.
There could be range issues. With most affordable EVs offering around 200 miles of range, you'll need to make sure you can charge up when on longer trips.
It’s worth noting that the severity of these problems is lessening as technology and infrastructure develops.
Manufacturing an EV still uses a lot of resources, resulting in some emissions. It's worth noting that moving away from the internal combustion engine won’t eradicate oil production; oil is still required for making heating oil, jet fuel, petrochemical feedstocks, waxes, lubricating oils, and asphalt. Crude oil is also often used for making plastics - some of which may find their way into your EV.

Zvezda Shipyard lays down yet another Aframax tanker for Sovcomflot
It is the sixth in a series of 12 Aframax ships ordered to Zvezda
Rosneft says Shipbuilding Complex Zvezda (Zvezda Shipyard in Bolshoy Kamen of the Primorsky Territory) has laid down the sixth Aframax tanker in a series of 12 ships ordered to the shipyard. The lead ship has already been launched.
The ceremony was attended by the shipyard management and employees, representatives of the customer and partners. Zvezda General Director Sergey Tseluiko, and Sovcomflot representative fixed the keel-laying plaque to the keel section of the future tanker.
The ship will be named the Okeansky Prospect after the central street of Vladivostok, the capital of the Primorsky Territory and the Far East District.
In September 2018, in the framework of the Eastern Economic Forum, Rosneft Oil Company, Zvezda Shipbuilding Complex, Arctic Leasing LLC (a VEB Group Company) and SKF ECO LLC (a Sovkomflot Group Company) signed a number of agreements for construction of two new generation Aframax crude oil tankers with their subsequent long-term chartering. The delivery of the first tanker is scheduled for 2022.
With the dimensions of 250 m length, 44 m width, and 114 thousand tonnes deadweight, Aframax tankers will be the first vessels of this type built in Russia. Equipped with the most advanced Class A automation system, green Aframax tankers are designed to transport crude oil in an unlimited navigation area thanks to the propulsion machinery that can run on liquefied natural gas in accordance with high environmental standards.
The Zvezda Shipbuilding Complex is constructed by the Rosneft-led Consortium upon the instruction of President of Russia Vladimir Putin. The Shipyard’s order portfolio amounts to 39 vessels (59 vessels including options) at the moment. The Shipyard’s pilot throughput is provided for by Rosneft that placed an order for 28 vessels. Zvezda’s product line will include vessels of up to 350 tonnes displacement, components of marine platforms, ice-class vessels, commercial vessels for cargo transportation, specialty vessels, and other types of marine equipment of any complexity, characteristics and purposes, including those that had not previously been produced in Russia due to the lack of required launching and hydraulic structures.

By Danny Cox
University of South Carolina head coach Steve Spurrier believes that the University of Alabama Crimson Tide football team is good. He believes they are very good. In fact, he believes they are so good that they could possibly beat some NFL teams if they were to play them on the field.
“Alabama, gosh, they look like they could beat a couple of those NFL teams that I’ve watched on Sundays,” Spurrier said Wednesday on “The Dan Patrick Show.” “I think a lot of the oddsmakers out there that usually know what’s going on, I’d guess Alabama would be favored by a little bit.”
Number one ranked Alabama is set to travel to Tiger Stadium in Baton Rouge, Louisiana on Saturday to face off with number five LSU. That is no easy accomplishment by any stretch of the imagination.
Last year, the Tigers and Tide split games. LSU won in a game of field goals in the regular season. Still, it was Alabama that won when it truly counted by shutting out LSU in the BCS National Championship Game.
Spurrier may be a little off in his idea that Alabama would be favored against some NFL teams though. RJ Bell of Pregame.com decided to see how it would be if Alabama was pitted up against the 1-6 Jacksonville Jaguars on a neutral field, and it wasn’t very much in the favor of the Crimson Tide.
Alabama would actually be 24-point underdogs.
The thing is, Alabama has a deep talent pool and has ever since head coach Nick Saban showed up on campus. Last season alone, there were four first-round picks in the NFL Draft. Everything is there for the argument of how Alabama would fend against some NFL teams, but that is just what it would be…an argument.
Seattle Seahawks, and former USC Trojans, coach Pete Carroll doesn’t quite see the same thing in Alabama that Spurrier does.
“I was confronted with that at times [at USC] and the falsehood is to think that that could ever take place,” Carroll said Wednesday at his weekly news conference. “It ain’t even close. Alabama’s got a great team and Nick is a fantastic coach, but when you match up the interior lines against regular NFL teams on either side of the ball, it wouldn’t even be close.”
Carroll was no slouch as a coach in the college ranks so he has all the right in the world to speak on the subject at hand.
While at USC, Carroll won national titles in both 2003 and again in 2004. The 2004 title has since been vacated due to violations in NCAA football, but it still technically happened. With as much talent as Carroll had on his USC squads, it appears as if he doesn’t believe that a college team could ever hold their own against an NFL squad.
The NFL and the NCAA are two completely different beasts. Looking at research and studies, less than three percent of college football players end up going pro. All of those that are on an NFL team deserve to be there and had to fight to be there.
That exact same thing can be said for college football teams, but there is a larger percentage of high school players landing on college squads. It would be interesting and Alabama may make it seem competitive at times, but they most likely would not be able to defeat, or even really hang with, and NFL team.

News media works to present the news to the recipients and in doing so, to ensure that the news is presented in an unbiased way. However, the concept of framing the news for the audience would ensure that news is presented in a certain way for the audience. For instance, some news is presented in a way where the audience would be able to understand how the builders are scammed nz website the news is presented in a way which highlights that the police and authorities have to be more active. Different representations are presented to the people by these news source. nz has paid advertisements on its website that benefits from the advertisements, and the website will hence have to ensure that they present news that is popular and is current. It has to provide news that would attract visitors to read its news and this tactic hence reveals a commercial interest for the site. In a way, these articles also add to a form of marketing for the site.
Now consider those sites such as that of Deloitte, ANZ and the Identity Support Service care idCare. Now these sites have a mutual obligation to the customers that they work with. Although it might not be a contract or a written rule, these companies would have an obligation to inform their clients and the people they work with of information that would be pertaining to the business that they conduct with them. Now companies such as Deloitte directly presents financial services to the people and hence the company would have to work on ensuring information on these forms of scams reaches the people they work with. These issues would not only affect the people and their businesses but would directly and indirectly affect Deloitte as well. So in this case the news representations of Deloitte have a motive which is to inform its customers and also retain the good name they have in the industry. On the other hand, such news and information sharing would be good for the brand name of companies such as Deloitte as the customers would think it to be a news worthy brand that has the current information in the industry, the opportunities, and the threats, etc. On a similar note, the websites such as idCare publish news on the scamming issues and these websites do present the issues in a more controlled way compared to that of Deloitte.

Resilience, Sustainability and Development: Some as Yet Undefined Issues
I have enjoyed reading the papers of John Paul Lederach and Jill Simone Gross. The concept of resilience as put forward in them, both in dealing with issues related to displacement and violence and related to development, is new to me and as such a bit abstract. Perhaps that is why I have not fully grasped the concept. As such, I can only share some experiences that I feel are of relevance.
John Paul Lederach’s Paper:
John Paul Lederach draws his arguments and conclusions from his work with displaced people. In my opinion the most important statement he makes is “by its very nature then, to be displaced forces a journey of discovery”. My understanding of this journey is, one, the question and assertion of identity, and two, adapting to change and creating and exploiting opportunities. Very often these two conflict. Being a refugee myself (though I refuse to call myself one) I can give numerous examples of this conflict. However, I will limit the examples to three and due to a lack of space and clarity I will not offer an analysis.
- The Lyari Expressway along the Lyari River in Karachi is almost complete. It has displaced more than 25,400 families and 8,000 plus commercial enterprises 1, in addition to schools, places of worship, and community facilities. It has disrupted the schooling of 26,000 children and 40,000 jobs have been lost as a result of the demolition of the commercial enterprises. The settlements along the Lyari Corridor were of three types. One, more than a century and a half old villages (some still survive) which are now part of urban Karachi. These are ethnically homogenous with a strong sense of identity. Their leadership is traditional and patriarchal; they have comparatively low social indicators as compared to other low income settlements; weak linkages with Karachi’s economy and a strong affiliation with regional political parties. But their ancestral graveyards are adjacent to them.
- The second type of settlements were created by informal developers and none of them were more than 40 to 45 years old. They expanded slowly over time. These settlements were multi-ethnic, had no traditional leadership, they were politically divided, they had comparatively better social indicators than the first type of settlements and many of their residents worked in Karachi’s services sector and ran informal businesses and industry. These settlements had no graveyards of their own.
- The third type of settlements were “shanties” the majority of whose population (men, women and children) worked in the garbage recycling industry as scavengers and many women also worked in the neighbouring middle class settlements as domestic help.
- The three settlements have reacted differently to displacement. The first type of settlements have been able to resist eviction. Some of them are still in existence in spite of seven years of pressure from the government agencies. Their resistance is holding up the completion of the project. Those in this category that have been evicted have failed to successfully build their homes or acquire infrastructure at the relocation sites to which they have been transferred as compared to other communities. The second type of settlements could not collectively resist eviction. They were demolished within two years. Many of their members went to court individually against the eviction order and failed to win their cases. However, at their relocation sites they have built better homes and acquired better municipal services than other communities. This they have done through a process of involving political parties in their negotiations with government agencies and by catering to the bribe market. The third type of settlements have for the most part relocated to other informal settlements where they and their employers can continue with the garbage recycling business. Many of the affectees have sold the plots that were given to them or have arranged for some family member to live in them till such time that they can fetch a better price. They did not resist eviction.
- Here you have three very different reactions to the same violence. Different types of resilience? Maybe this is worth discussing.
- In the aftermath of the Pakistan Earthquake in 2006, different communities reacted differently to the rehabilitation process. The economy of Pakistani Kashmir is heavily dependent on remittances from Karachi where most of its migrants work as drivers, cooks, waiters and in working class jobs in the services sector. As a result of the earthquake, extended family and clan relationships weakened (collapsed in certain cases) and a very large number of residents moved out of their villages and used the compensation money for reconstructing their homes on their individual farmlands, something that was not normally done before 2. The areas of the North-West Frontier Province (NWFP) affected by the earthquake, also have a remittance economy but the majority of the migrants work as building site and unskilled industrial labour. They and their families had, unlike the Kashmir case, considerable problems in dealing with official procedures for compensation and reconstruction of their homes in spite of stronger community cohesion. However, this cohesion could not be effectively utilised by NGOs and relief agencies because of the complex nature of the rules and regulations developed for accessing compensation and technical support. As a result, development work in Kashmir has been far more effective in spite of less cohesive community organisations.
- Large scale migration to Pakistan from India in 1947 3 as a result of the partition of the Subcontinent has marginalised old communities. This is true of cities like Karachi and Delhi. In both cases, there were other reasons as well since both of them became capitals of newly independent states. A study of two neighbourhoods in Lahore’s walled city (one of a pre-1947 community and the other of a neighbourhood of migrants) showed that the migrants were upwardly mobile and economically better-off 4. A conversation I had with a village elder in the Punjab sums it up. When I asked him about conditions in his village, he responded that there was “affra-taffri” (anarchy). When I asked him to elaborate, he said that in his village a few days back a “dhobi’s” (washerman’s) daughter had married an Arain (agriculturist). “What greater anarchy” he added. When I asked him the reason for this anarchy, he responded that it was due to the refugees who with migration had lost the link between profession and caste and as a result social values have collapsed 5. Many sociologists, like my friend Talat Aslam, editor of the Daily News, are of the opinion that the “challo” (upwardly mobile, with it) culture of the areas in which the refugees settled is the result of migration and the cause of the marginalisation of older communities. This view has been supported by my earlier work on social change 6 and my more recent research work on migration and small towns in Pakistan 7. My question is why could not the local communities resist marginalisation in spite of strong community organisations and institutions?

I had a deep cleansing facial earlier this year, and while the salon is on the small side I really can't say I was distracted by the road outside - in fact the location is very handy for me. Anna was thorough and pleasant and the price was very competitive - overall I was happy with the service.

Abhinav Mehra represents ID Capital, which invests in Agtech and Foodtech in Asia Pacific. In his GEC Lab, he discussed with participants on the challenges that entrepreneurs face in implementing innovations in the agriculture and food industry, and the potential ways in which entrepreneurs could partner with various stakeholders to bring forth the necessary innovations to resolve agriculture and food issues in the country.
The common challenges faced by entrepreneurs as Abhinav mentioned in his lab session are resistance by farmers in adopting new farming techniques and practices, the lack of motivation in adopting new techniques and practices results in entrepreneurs having to incur high costs in running pilot tests with farmers to educate and persuade them to see the effective results seen with innovation, overall lack of financing available to raise capital and funds, aside from government-related financing (Agrobank) and R&D grants, monopoly by large domestic and multi-national companies which makes it difficult for entrepreneurs to work directly with them unless the companies have a vested interest or have a vendor relationship with the start-ups.
As a result, there is no platform available for entrepreneurs to collaborate with large companies in developing new innovations.
In November 2017, Mekong Agriculture Technology Challenge (MATch) was launched. MATch aim to support agricultural startups for the Mekong region’s agriculture. Agriculture and food tech industry in Mekong is expected to be more competitive and sustainable, in the future.
There are two challenges in MATch which is the MATch Startup Accelerator and the MATch Market Access Accelerator.
The MATch Startup Accelerator is focused for agritech startups and traditional agriculture businesses which at their early stages with their business models that can be scale up, in Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar and Vietnam.
As for international agritech which is mature enough, The MATch Market Access Accelerator aims to expand them into the Mekong region. Hence, participants will receive mentiorship and assistance with their expansion plans. This includes product adaptation and driving relationships with partners and investors in the region.

Puymin Roman Site
The Roman remains at Vaison-la-Romaine are all in good condition for tourists to visit. First, there is the 2,000-metre-square villa of Apollo, which boasts the remains of marble flooring and a thermal bath. Secondly, an immense 3,000-metre-square house, La Maison à la Tonnelle, which was divided into a public section for entertaining, a private home for the family and another part that housed animals and grain. The third attraction is a sanctuary where Roman people could pay homage to local and national personalities and the architecture reflects this; it’s full of grand doorways, elegant columns, a big pool and many statues of Emperors and their wives. Finally, wander the remains of the Roman theatre, which was probably built in the first century AD and which has been protected as a historical monument since 1862. This last is an impressive relic of a bygone age when it could entertain up to 3,000 spectators at a time. It was probably used until the fifth century at which time (in the year 407) Emperor Honorius ordered the dismantling of any pagan monuments. The whole site is currently undergoing restoration and is well worth a visit.

Eigenmode analysis of phased-coupled VCSEL arrays using spatial coherence measurements
We apply the modal coherence theory to evaluate the spatial mode structure of a 2 × 2 phase-coupled array of vertical cavity surface emitting lasers (VCSELs). The eigenmode structure is extracted for different pump currents by measuring the degree of spatial coherence of all VCSEL pairs in the array. The results reveal the impact of optical disorder and spatial hole burning on the modal discrimination. The approach is useful more generally for the evaluation of spatial mode content of other laser array.

Arizona Medicare plans include Original Medicare Parts A and B, Part C (Medicare Advantage), Part D (prescription drug coverage), and Medicare Supplement (Medigap) coverage. To make the most of your coverage, it is essential to understand your options to make an informed decision when selecting your health plan.
Medicare is designed to provide and reduce the cost of healthcare in the United States. You are eligible for Medicare in Arizona if you meet one of three criteria:
If you meet one of the above criteria, you qualify for Medicare in Arizona and can apply. Continue reading to learn about Medicare plans in Arizona, essential enrollment periods, and how to find the health coverage that fits your health and budget.
There are several types of plans available under the umbrella of Medicare plans in Arizona, including Original Medicare (Parts A & B), Medicare Advantage (Part C), and Medicare Supplement insurance (Medigap). These plans are a mix of public and private Medicare plan options.
Arizonans have access to the public option provided by the federal government, referred to as Original Medicare. Original Medicare includes Part A (hospital insurance) and Part B (medical insurance). These public plans don’t protect you from high out-of-pocket costs and lack comprehensive dental, hearing, and vision coverage.
Because of these shortcomings, most people enroll in a private health insurance plan approved by Medicare. These private plans include Medicare Part C (Medicare Advantage plans), Medicare Part D (prescription drug coverage), and Medicare Supplement plans (Medigap).
We’ll dive into what each public and private plan option covers so you can find the best combination for your health and budget needs.
Original Medicare Part A (hospital insurance) is a part of Original Medicare and, in most cases, is premium free. Whether it’s premium-free or you must pay, it covers medically-necessary services delivered by a Medicare-assigned healthcare provider – in a Medicare-approved facility.
Part A covers but is not limited to the care you receive in the following settings:
If you choose to enroll in a private Medicare Advantage plan, it must provide the same coverage as Original Medicare Part A.
“Original Medicare does not have a cap on out-of-pocket expenses which is why most Medicare beneficiaries enroll in a Medicare Advantage or Medicare Supplement plan.“
While Medicare Part A provides hospital insurance, Medicare Part B provides your Original Medicare medical insurance. If you qualify for Medicare Part A, you can also enroll in Medicare Part B. However, Medicare Part B is not premium-free. You should expect to pay a monthly or quarterly premium.
Medicare Part B has a standardized premium for Arizona, as with the rest of the country. The standard premium is based on your or your spouse’s income history. And one or both of your incomes will determine the cost of your Medicare Part B premium. For instance, if you make over a certain amount or your income fluctuates, you may need to pay an Income Related Monthly Adjustment Amount (IRMAA) in addition to the premium.
Your Part B also comes with out-of-pocket expenses. These include an annual deductible and coinsurance. Medicare Part B covers 80% of costs, but you are responsible for 20% of coinsurance. Unfortunately, Original Medicare does not cap its out-of-pocket expenses, which is why most Medicare beneficiaries enroll in either a Medicare Supplement (Medigap) or Medicare Advantage plan.
Your basic medical needs are covered by Medicare Part B. These include, but are not limited to:
As of November 2022, 48% of Arizonans are enrolled in a Medicare Advantage plan. There are 1,428,746 Medicare beneficiaries in Arizona, and 683,738 are enrolled in a Medicare Advantage plan. Medicare Advantage plans, also known as Medicare Part C, provide all the benefits covered by Original Medicare plus additional coverage such as comprehensive dental, vision, hearing, and more.
These plans are offered by private insurers approved by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS). Medicare Advantage plans typically include prescription drug coverage.
To qualify to enroll in a Medicare Advantage plan in Arizona, you must be enrolled in Original Medicare Parts A and B and live in the plan’s service area.
Original Medicare sets the standard for Medicare coverage. That means that while private insurance companies offer Medicare Advantage plans, they must match the coverage provided by Medicare Part A and B. While Original Medicare does not have a cap on out-of-pocket costs, Medicare Advantage plans do. These plans have set deductibles, coinsurance, and copays within limits established by the federal government.
With a Medicare Advantage plan, you limit out-of-pocket expenses and protect yourself from high and surprise medical bills. Once your Medicare Advantage hits its out-of-pocket limit, including the deductible, the Medicare Advantage plan pays 100% of covered healthcare expenses for the remainder of the year.
Medicare Advantage plans are available on a county level. This means that the plans in one county may not be available in another. In one county alone, there are many plan options to choose from. You will likely have Health Maintenance Organization (HMO), Point of Service (POS), and Preferred Provider Organization (PPO) plan options available to you.
There are 157 Medicare Advantage plans in the state. Between 2022 and 2023, there was a 1.3% change in plan options (155 plans in 2022). Between 2021 and 2022, there was a 29.2% change in plan options (120 plans in 2021).
With 157 plans available, there are numerous options to find the right plan for your health and budget.
Most Medicare Advantage plans include extra benefits that Original Medicare doesn’t offer. These benefits include comprehensive dental, vision, and hearing, plus innovative offerings like wellness and healthcare planning, rewards and incentive programs, and more. Most plans also include prescription drug coverage that you’d need to purchase separately (Part D) if you went with Original Medicare. Medicare Advantage plans that include prescription drug coverage are called Medicare Advantage Prescription Drug plans (MAPD).
Medicare Advantage Prescription Drug plans provide your hospital, medical, and prescription drug coverage through one plan. In 2023, the majority (89%) of Medicare Advantage plans nationally include prescription drug coverage. And, on average, you may have 35 Medicare Advantage Prescription Drug plans.
If you need help or more information about Medicare Advantage plans, Connie Health can help. Call (623) 223-8884 to speak with a local licensed agent.
While you must sign up for Original Medicare Parts A and B, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) also requires you have creditable prescription drug coverage. If you don’t have prescription drug coverage, you could face penalties. The source of this coverage could come from Medicare Part D, a Medicare Advantage Prescription Drug plan (MAPD), work, or another source.
Medicare Part D works with Original Medicare Parts A & B. Therefore, if you sign up for a Medicare Advantage plan, you’ll likely get drug coverage through that plan. Part D is provided by private health insurance companies that contract with CMS, similar to Medicare Supplement and Medicare Advantage plans.
Plans are available on the county level, so the cost and availability of a stand-alone Part D plan will vary. There is 28 Part D plans to choose from in 2023. Most plans also require you to pay a monthly premium, annual deductible, copayments, and coinsurance.
There are programs that can help you afford Part D or your prescription medications. Extra Help could provide you with the assistance you need. In fact, 25% of Arizonans enrolled in a stand-alone Medicare Part D plan get Extra Help (Low-income subsidy).
A local licensed Connie Health agent can ensure that your Medicare plan covers the prescriptions you rely upon. If you need help choosing the right plan or seeing if you qualify for Extra Help paying for medications, call (623) 223-8884.
Did you know that you could end up paying penalties if you don’t sign up for a Medicare Part D plan when you turn 65? It’s true. But don’t worry—there are ways to prevent those pesky Part D penalties. Let’s take a look at how to avoid them.
The current penalty system is based on the time since your Initial Enrollment Period (IEP). The IEP is a seven-month window that begins three months before your 65th birthday and ends three months after. If you enroll in a Medicare Part D plan during this period, you won’t be subject to any penalties.
However, if you miss your IEP or decide to wait until later to sign up for a plan, you may be charged a penalty in addition to your plan premium when you eventually sign up for coverage. This penalty is determined by how long it has been since the start of your IEP; for every month without coverage, after your IEP ends, 1% will be added to your monthly premium for as long as you have that plan.
Ensure that you won’t incur late enrollment penalties. Speak with a local licensed Connie Health agent who can review your Initial Enrollment Period and ensure you have prescription drug coverage. Call (623) 223-8884 today.
If you missed your IEP and have now decided it’s time to get coverage, all hope isn’t lost.
You can still enroll in a Medicare Part D plan through Special Enrollment Periods (SEPs). SEPs allow eligible individuals to join or switch plans outside their IEP window without facing additional penalties due to late enrollment. Some examples of qualifying circumstances include moving outside of the service area of your current plan, qualifying for low-income subsidies, or losing other creditable prescription drug coverage (such as through an employer).
It’s important to note that signing up during a SEP does not waive any existing late enrollment penalties; these will still apply unless they are waived due to extreme circumstances like incarceration or living abroad. However, SEPs allow seniors to avoid any new late enrollment penalties from accruing while they figure out which Medicare Part D plan works best for their needs.
So make sure you take advantage of them. Signing up during a SEP can help ensure you stay covered with quality prescription drug coverage while avoiding costly late enrollment fines and fees.
Original Medicare doesn’t cap its out-of-pocket costs. That’s where a Medicare Supplement can help.
Suppose you’d like to stay on Original Medicare. In that case, a Medicare Supplement (Medigap) plan can help pay for some or all of the out-of-pocket costs, such as copayment, coinsurance, and deductibles. Medicare Supplement plans are sold by private insurance companies approved by CMS but do not include prescription drug coverage.
Because there isn’t a cap on out-of-pocket expenses with Original Medicare, most beneficiaries have additional coverage through a Medicare Supplement or Medicare Advantage plan. Either of these plans can protect you from unknown and surprising medical costs.
A Medicare Supplement plan should be purchased during the Medicare Supplement Open Enrollment Period. If you choose to enroll in this plan type later, you may need to undergo underwriting, which may lead to a more expensive plan premium or plan rejection.
Want to ensure you don’t miss the window to enroll in a Medicare Supplement plan? Call to speak with a local licensed agent at (623) 223-8884. We can help you choose the best plan for your health and budget.
When selecting an Arizona Medicare plan, it is essential to understand your options to make an informed decision based on what best fits your budget and lifestyle needs. There are several types of plans available under the umbrella of Arizona Medicare plans, including Original Medicare (Parts A & B), Medicare Advantage (Part C), and Medigap Insurance policies which help pay for some or all out-of-pocket expenses associated with Original Medicare like copays, coinsurance, and deductibles.
Before making a final decision on an Arizona medicare plan, assess if any additional coverages such as vision care or dental care are needed, as well as take into account any existing medical conditions or prescription medications to ensure that they meet your needs. With these tips, you can make the most of your Medicare coverage.
You may be wondering when the enrollment deadlines are for Medicare. Knowing the deadlines is important so that you don’t miss out on any potential coverage or benefits that may be available. To help, let’s look at the different enrollment deadlines for Medicare in Arizona.
The Initial Enrollment Period (IEP) for Medicare begins three months before your 65th birthday and lasts for three months after your 65th birthday. During this period, seniors must sign up for Part A and Part B of Medicare if they choose to do so. It is important to note that failure to enroll during this period could result in penalties being applied when signing up at a later date.
Not sure when your Initial Enrollment Period is? We’ve created an eligibility quiz that clarifies that question. Enter your birthdate to discover your seven-month Medicare enrollment window.
Not sure if it’s the right time to enroll in Medicare Part A and B? Explore your options with a local licensed agent. Call (623) 223-8884 to speak with an agent today.
If you don’t sign up during your Initial Enrollment Period (IEP), you can still enroll during the General Enrollment Period (GEP). The GEP runs from January 1st to March 31st of every year and is open to anyone who did not sign up during their IEP. If you sign up during this enrollment period will have coverage beginning July 1st of that same year. Note that if you enroll during the General Enrollment Period, it likely means that you missed your IEP and may incur late enrollment penalties.
The Initial Enrollment Period and General Enrollment Period are when you’ll most likely enroll in Medicare. However, there are additional enrollment periods that you should be aware of. These allow you to switch to a different plan – often optimizing based on health, budget, or even moving changes. These enrollment periods include:
There may be numerous Arizona Medicare plans for you to choose from. And essential deadlines for you to know. It may seem overwhelming, but Connie Health is here for your entire Medicare journey.
With information about your current doctors, specialists, prescription medications, and extra benefits you’re seeking, a Connie Health agent can find the plan that’s right for your health and budget. Have a local licensed agent guide you through your Medicare journey. Call (623) 223-8884 to speak with an agent today.

Two out of 4 injectors were reconditioned but the mechanic put the injectors back incorrectly and reprogrammed them to the ECU, even though this problem has been resolved, the car is not now running well and I am wondering could the ECU have been damaged by previous mistake?
My car has 120000 miles.
My car has a manual transmission.
Hello. The ECU could not have been damaged by moving injectors to different cylinders. The injectors are not programmed to be in a particular cylinder of the engine. Having only two injectors reconditioned is the most likely cause for running bad. You should have all injectors cleaned to be the same flow. Only one injector not flowing as much fuel as the other three will cause the engine to run rough.
Our certified mechanics come to you ・Backed by 12-month, 12,000-mile guarantee・Fair and transparent pricing

Modern houses and buildings have sophisticated plumbing and mechanical systems, apart from central cooling, heating, and ventilation. There are many ways to evaluate the efficiency of your heating and air conditioning units. This efficiency is measured in SEER for air conditioners and HSPF for heat pumps.
An expert furnace company will be able to help you choose the right units, whether you need them installed or not. For the unit to work safely, reliably, and efficiently, proper maintenance is just as important as its installation. A reliable HVAC system is essential for your home and business. While you could use a space heater and a fan on certain days, a reliable HVAC system is essential for most of the year.
Here are some tips to help you choose the right Heating and Air Conditioning Contractor.
If you're looking for an air conditioner or heating contractor, it is a good idea to ask your family and friends who live in the same area as you. They might be able to recommend someone they have had a pleasant experience with.
Many Professional associations have websites that provide information about heating, cooling and ventilation contractors in all parts of the world. It is important to choose contractors with technicians who are certified by a reputable agency.
A qualified estimator will inspect your hose and base his proposal on heat load calculations. An estimator can also help with old installations.

Planning on decorating your boy or girl’s room in a contemporary style? Consider a color palette including blue. “Blue color is everlastingly appointed by the Deity to be a source of delight”, said John Ruskin. Blue is the most liked color by both men and women. It has the most complex symbolism of all colors, as its meaning changes with its hue. A dark shade of blue can “make you feel blue”, while a light shade can be reminiscent of the sky and the sea, inspiring tranquility.
Generally, the color is believed to be dependable and trustworthy. In business attire, wearing a dark blue suit is customary. The color is also believed to be royal, as aristocracy is blue-blooded. We associate blue with boys and pink with girls. However, in Belgium, it’s the other way around. If you are looking for color inspiration, you can find it in our selection of ten contemporary blue rooms for boys. Have a look, let the color blue seduce you.
1. Experiment With Tones
A color palette featuring blue works wonders in boys’ contemporary bedrooms. Try to mix up different tones of blue, both light and dark to create contrast. Also, an all blue room can feel quite cold. Think about adding a few touches of warm color to neutralize this effect.
2. Interaction With Light
If you are going for darker shades of blue, make sure the room receives plenty of natural light. If not, artificial lightning is always a solution. Try to find the balance between the two.
3. Gray And Blue Combined
Gray is a neutral and will always complement the adjacent color, borrowing some of its properties. When combining gray and blue, expect the first to gain a bluish tone. This boys’ bedroom combined nuances of gray and blue perfectly, creating a fun and balanced setting
4. Accents Of Color
This room works with a neutral dominated color palette, putting an emphasis on blue. The blue accents on the floor are communicating strongly with the gray frames on the wall, creating flow
5. Contemporary Bedroom
This contemporary bedroom doubles as an office. Supposedly, one spends a lot of time in this environment, therefore it should be inviting and comfortable. The blue color palette inspires calm and tranquility, reinforced by the sea picture of the wall
6. Warm And Cool
Every element in this bedroom contributes to creating a lovely nautical theme. Cool and warm colors are perfectly balanced. In a blue dominated room, manages to steal the spotlight with its intensity.
A bright red accent wall immediately captures the eye’s attention. However, its striking effect is counterbalanced by the rhythm of the blue and white striped carpet.
8. Lightning Matters
Lightning drastically changes the tones of a blue. Natural light has a certain coldness to it. If your room doesn’t receive much of it and you want a natural effect, go for a white, neon light. If you just want to warm up the cool blue, try warm artificial lightning.
9. Touches Of Blue
A few accents of blue and your boys’ room will change in an instance. Depending on the shade of blue used, you can create a calm or cheerful environment for your child to indulge in.
10. Neutrals, Blue And Red
If blue doesn’t appeal very much to your taste, you can take inspiration from this lovely bedroom. Gray takes all the attention from the few touches of blue scattered across the room.
What do you think about using blue to decorate your child’s bedroom?

A multiple installation of 27 litre gas water heaters on a single manifold is possible, using a parallel plumbing
arrangement, where large volumes of hot water are required. It is good practice, but not essential, to install
the water heaters in an Equa-Flow® plumbing arrangement. The installation may operate on a dead leg
system or a circulated flow and return system.
If a circulated flow and return system is installed, the circulator must be sized and set to provide a minimum
flow rate of 3.0 L/min through the circulated hot water flow and return system and be either thermostatically
and / or timer controlled. The circulator must not be set to operate continuously, i.e. 24 hours per day.
The cold (or solar preheat) water and hot water manifolds must be designed to balance the flow from each
water heater. To achieve this, there are basic installation requirements and principles which must be
1. The maximum number of water heaters in a bank should be 6. Only one bank can be installed.
2. The water heaters must be of the same model.
3. The cold (or solar preheat) water line, cold (or solar preheat) and hot headers and hot water line must be
sized to meet the requirements of both AS/NZS 3500.4 and the application. The gas line must be sized
to meet the requirements of AS/NZS 5601 and the application.
Minimum header pipe sizes at the installation are:
Cold (or solar preheat) and hot header pipe size
Note: Water and gas supply pipe sizes to the installation may be required to be larger than the minimum
pipe sizes at the installation to meet the requirements of the Standards and the application.
The recommended branch line size for the cold (or solar preheat) and hot water and gas pipes is DN20.
4. A full flow gate valve or ball valve and if required a pressure limiting valve must be installed on the cold
water line to the system. A non-return valve or stop tap must not be installed.
Note: The gate valve or ball valve and pressure limiting valve are not required if this is an in-series gas
booster installation to a solar water heater.
5. A full flow gate valve or ball valve (not a stop tap) must be installed on both the inlet and outlet branches
of each water heater. A non-return valve must not be installed.
6. An isolation valve must be installed on the gas branch of each water heater.
7. An adjustable pressure reducing valve (PRV) (RMC model SYR 312 / 20) must be installed on the cold
(or solar preheat) branch to all but the first water heater.
Each PRV is to be adjusted so that each subsequent water heater is staged to operate only after the
required hot water flow rate increases by intervals of 13 litres per minute (refer to “Pressure Reducing
Valve Commissioning Procedure” on page 29).
8. Non-return valves or pressure limiting valves must not be installed on the branch lines to the water
9. It is good plumbing practice for all fittings, valves and branch lines to be matched sets all the way along
10. Sufficient space must be left to enable access, servicing or removal of any water heater.
The water heaters can be installed side by side with minimal clearance between them. The AGA has
approved the installation of the water heaters with an exemption from the 300 mm minimum clearance
requirements between flue terminals, as stated in AS/NZS 5601, clause 184.108.40.206.
A second rating label is attached to the inside of the front cover of each water heater. This can be
referenced to determine details of the water heater.

Thirteenth years are completed since RIALTO Theater introduced a series of open air music events at Heroes Square, with the primary goal of developing and cultivating tolerance and acceptance of diversity. Since then the colorful Ethnic Festival has grown, diversified and renamed to Cyprus Rialto World Music Festival, but it still remains a meeting of music groups and sounds from different countries.
Since 2011 the Festival has been a member of the European Forum of World Wide Music Festivals and for the second consecutive season the festival is honored with its inclusion in the 17 Cypriot Festivals that have joined EFFE - Europe for Festivals, Festivals for Europe. This is an important achievement of the Festival in the «European Cultural Map», which offers new perspectives for cooperation and further development.
Rialto Theatre hosts, every summer in July, groups and musicians from all over the world at Heroes Square. The multicultural World Music Festival aims to create a musical board between the audience and the music of different traditions. The Festival presents every year music groups with common starting points and influences that draw their inspiration from the tradition of each country and Cyprus appears as a bridge between them.
With all its events being open to the public, the festival itself is a colorful music meeting, attended by not only musicians from different countries but also viewers of all nationalities who either live permanently or occasionally visit our country.

Click on the video footage of this strange music and you might feel flickers of exhilaration, followed by a tiny thud of ennui. Even if our polar ice stays frozen, few of us will ever be able to travel to the bottom of the planet to hear this otherworldly wishing well in real life.
Does that make the pyew-pyew any less real? Even if we didn’t get to hear Aretha Franklin sing “Amazing Grace” from inside the New Temple Missionary Baptist Church back in 1972, listening to the recording helps trick us into thinking we’ve truly experienced it, right? This is the mystery-cloud that floats over the music of Beatrice Dillon, a British composer-producer whose meticulous new album sounds like it was recorded in an impossible, nonphysical no-space. Now, here it is in ours.
It’s called “Workaround,” which feels right for Dillon’s hyper-clinical approach to sound editing, but not for the weirdo wonderment that it sparks. Imaginative and hygienic, Dillon’s digital rhythms are punctuated by acoustic instruments — cello, tabla, steel guitar — that pop up and vanish, playing peekaboo with the void. When saxophonist Verity Susman materializes during a song called “Workaround Two,” it’s as if Dillon and her guest have discovered a way to activate the nonexistent air of digital space. How does a saxophonist blow a note in a vacuum? Like this.
At first, that illusion of airlessness feels nice, maybe even generous. As the hellhounds of the information age continuously yip for our increasingly divided attention, here’s 40-odd minutes of music that we can funnel into the privacy of our respective headspaces without having to venture out into a world of glacial melt, coronavirus outbreaks or the new Justin Bieber album.
But the feeling doesn’t last. Roughly halfway through the tracklist, Dillon’s dance floor fluency begins to reveal itself. Phantom pulses begin forming in the negative space. You might only be able to hear them inside your head, but they’re real-world nightlife rhythms — the kind that invite you to move your body through a familiar, enchanted darkness.
It doesn’t necessarily have to be inside a club. Instead, find a good pair of headphones, locate a strollable path that’s safe after dark, cue up “Workaround” and get walking. You’ll be striding through reality in all its wonder.

The North American Arms Corporation, 1480 Birchmount Road, Toronto, Ontario (NAACO). In September 1959 Major General Chris Vokes was elected to the Board of Directors of the new corporation. The Brigadier pistol was developed to meet Canadian requirements for a service handgun in the aftermath of World War II. It was based largely on the FN GP35 Hi-Power self-loading pistol of 1935, but scaled up significantly. Whereas the Hi-Power used the 9 mm Para cartridge, the NAACO Brigadier used a new long-case .45" round of much greater power than the then-standard .45 ACP. With a standard 230-grain (15 g) bullet, the .45 NAACO cartridge could produce muzzle velocities of up to 1,600 feet per second (490 m/s), or almost twice as fast as the .45 ACP. In order to keep weight down, the pistol used an aluminium slide, but still weighed more than four pounds, unloaded. Its box magazine could carry eight rounds of ammunition. A removable trigger module allowed for a fully automatic configuration, complete with an attachable butt-stock. This would produce a sub-machine gun configuration called the Borealis. Gunsmith Robert Herman and Designer Russell Sutherland spent a year developing the prototype. The company also produced the .308 caliber Grizzly and Homestead rifles, along with a 12 gauge pump action shotgun, the Mallard and La Salle. NAACO's President was R. J. Cavanagh. On December 18, 1962 the assets of the bankrupt company were sold at auction by J. Spadafora and Company on the Birchmount Road premises.
In the end, the project fell victim to NATO standardization, and the company folded in 1962. Only one prototype was built, and the weapon never entered service; the Brigadier's rarity makes it pricey on the gun market. It is unlikely that it would have seen much success in any event, as military doctrine of the day would have roundly criticized the adoption of such a heavy service sidearm. However, given the success of the Desert Eagle in recent years, it may be that the Brigadier was simply before its time, and presented to the wrong market (besides, the heavy recoil would have made impractical as a military side arm). The .45 NAACO cartridge sank into obscurity, but was revived in the 1970s by Winchester as a long-range target round. Ballistic performance was nearly identical to the original, and the cartridge was christened .45 Winchester Magnum. It has since been used in a number of handguns.

On February 8, 1996, DoD removed 308 files claiming that the files must undergo rigorous review for classified information despite their earlier electronic publication. Under pressure from veterans groups and the raised visibility of front page coverage in the New York Times, DoD returned 82 of these files to the website on August 30, 1996. The rest of the missing GulfLINK files remained hidden behind vague claims of national security.
When Patrick G. Eddington, a former CIA analyst, submitted the manuscript for his book, Gassed in the Gulf to the CIA for review for classified information, as he was required to do, the CIA objected to his use of these Missing GulfLINK files. In response, Mr. Eddington filed a lawsuit, Eddington v. CIA, DIA, and, on October 30, 1996, Insignia Publishing posted these files on this World Wide Website. These actions forced the CIA and the Department of Defense to announce, on November 1, 1996, that they would repost the Missing GulfLINK files on the GulfLINK website.
ALL 308 of these files are republished here on this website. The files are presented here as they were on the GulfLINK website, prior to their removal in February, 1996. The cryptic file names make it difficult for first time perusers to navigate the collection, however, partial document titles are provided to provide some relief. Those files returned to the DoD GulfLINK website in August, 1996, are marked with an asterisk.
The GulfLINK files returned by CIA/DoD to the GulfLINK website ARE NOT exactly the same as they were when the files were originally posted. Mr. Eddington has examined and compared the two sets of files and his report on the results is available on this website.

This last weekend I was able to teach and paint with a couple of my sweet Chicago friends (we actually met in college, but are now all married and live in Chicago.) We had such a great time! At least I did; I can't speak for them necessarily. ;)
We worked on the same composition of flowers together so that I could walk them through the process step by step. They were naturals; I was SO impressed with their abilities and creativity. It's always amazing to see how two paintings of the same thing from two different painters, or even twenty different painters, can look so different and have its own spice and flair. Personality shines in impressionism!
When I went the the store to I couldn't get over the color in this bouquet, but I didn't even realize just HOW great the color was until we were getting into the real juice of the painting. We kept mixing colors saying together, "oooh! This is the prettiest!" and then on the next color saying, "no! this is prettiest!" We wanted dresses made in every color. It was so fun; the perfect welcome into a REAL springtime painting.
Above: One of their paintings! Incredible, right?
Above: The bouquet! So perfect. And a detail of my piece.
Above: My dear friends and their masterpieces! They painted so beautifully! Great job, girls! So proud.

Ian B. Cooper and Bridgette A. Barry
In oxygenic photosynthesis, photosystem II (PSII) is the multisubunit membrane protein responsible for the oxidation of water to O2 and the reduction of plastoquinone to plastoquinol. One electron charge separation in the PSII reaction center is coupled to sequential oxidation reactions at the oxygen-evolving complex (OEC), which is composed of four manganese ions and one calcium ion. The sequentially oxidized forms of the OEC are referred to as the Sn states. S1 is the dark-adapted state of the OEC. Flash-induced oxygen production oscillates with period four and occurs during the S3 to S0 transition. Chloride plays an important, but poorly understood role in photosynthetic water oxidation. Chloride removal is known to block manganese oxidation during the S2 to S3 transition. In this work, we have used azide as a probe of proton transfer reactions in PSII. PSII was sulfate-treated to deplete chloride and then treated with azide. Steady state oxygen evolution measurements demonstrate that azide inhibits oxygen evolution in a chloride-dependent manner and that azide is a mixed or noncompetitive inhibitor. This result is consistent with two azide binding sites, one at which azide competes with chloride and one at which azide and chloride do not compete. At pH 7.5, the Ki for the competing site was estimated as 1mM, and the Ki′ for the uncompetitive site was estimated as 8mM. Vibrational spectroscopy was then used to monitor perturbations in the frequency and amplitude of the azide antisymmetric stretching band. These changes were induced by laser-induced charge separation in the PSII reaction center. The results suggest that azide is involved in proton transfer reactions, which occur before manganese oxidation, on the donor side of chloride-depleted PSII.

The influence of different anions on the binding and oxidation of manganous and ferrous cations was studied in four mutants of bacterial reaction centers that can bind and oxidize these metal ions. Light-minus-dark difference optical and electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopies were applied to monitor electron transfer from bound divalent metal ions to the photo-oxidized bacteriochlorophyll dimer in the presence of five different anions. At pH 7, bicarbonate was found to be the most effective for both manganese and iron binding, with dissociation constants around 1 μM in three of the mutants. The pH dependence of the dissociation constants for manganese revealed that only bicarbonate and acetate were able to facilitate the binding and oxidation of the metal ion between pH 6 and 8 where the tight binding in their absence could not otherwise be established. The data are consistent with two molecules of bicarbonate or one molecule of acetate binding to the metal binding site. For ferrous ion, the binding and oxidation was facilitated not only by bicarbonate and acetate, but also by citrate. Electron paramagnetic resonance spectra suggest differences in the arrangement of the iron ligands in the presence of the various anions.

In oxygenic photosynthesis, PSII carries out the oxidation of water and reduction of plastoquinone. The product of water oxidation is molecular oxygen. The water splitting complex is located on the lumenal side of the PSII reaction center and contains manganese, calcium, and chloride. Four sequential photooxidation reactions are required to generate oxygen from water; the five sequentially oxidized forms of the water splitting complex are known as the Sn states, where n refers to the number of oxidizing equivalents stored. Calcium plays a role in water oxidation; removal of calcium is associated with an inhibition of the S state cycle. Although calcium can be replaced by other cations in vitro, only strontium maintains activity, and the steady-state rate of oxygen evolution is decreased in strontium-reconstituted PSII. In this article, we study the role of calcium in PSII that is limited in water content. We report that strontium substitution or 18OH2 exchange causes conformational changes in the calcium ligation shell. The conformational change is detected because of a perturbation to calcium ligation during the S1 to S2 and S2 to S3 transition under water-limited conditions.

Effects of adding monovalent alkali metal cations to Ca2+-depleted photosystem (PS)II membranes on the biochemical and spectroscopic properties of the oxygen-evolving complex were studied. The Ca2+-dependent oxygen evolution was competitively inhibited by K+, Rb+, and Cs+, the ionic radii of which are larger than the radius of Ca2+ but not inhibited significantly by Li+ and Na+, the ionic radii of which are smaller than that of Ca2+. Ca2+-depleted membranes without metal cation supplementation showed normal S2 multiline electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) signal and an S2QA− thermoluminescence (TL) band with a normal peak temperature after illumination under conditions for single turnover of PSII. Membranes supplemented with Li+ or Na+ showed properties similar to those of the Ca2+-depleted membranes, except for a small difference in the TL peak temperatures. The peak temperature of the TL band of membranes supplemented with K+, Rb+, or Cs+ was elevated to ∼38°C which coincided with that of YD+QA− TL band, and no S2 EPR signals were detected. The K+-induced high-temperature TL band and the S2QA− TL band were interconvertible by the addition of K+ or Ca2+ in the dark. Both the Ca2+-depleted and the K+-substituted membranes showed the narrow EPR signal corresponding to the S2YZ+ state at g=2 by illuminating the membranes under multiple turnover conditions. These results indicate that the ionic radii of the cations occupying Ca2+-binding site crucially affect the properties of the manganese cluster.

This simple DIY organization tool came into being at the the spur of an inspired moment.This one is particularly for the girls out there with a ton of Hair Clips to pretty them up and then later store them safe and sound. Just like any other little girl, mine too has a bunch that used to be thrown into a bowl. There was nothing wrong with it except, most of the times the ones on the top was chosen and rest of them forgotten about and left tangled at the bottom of the bowl.
At the beginning of this month we were brainstorming if to include some storage solutions in the next edition of Malayali, I thought of our mess of hair accessory storage. Though the "storage solution" idea was put on hold, our hair clip situation lingered in my mind. Thus was this solution born.
So, off to our great clip storage.
-- Embroidery Hoop/ Any Ring or an Empty Frame-- Floral Wire / Metal wire
-- Hot Glue
-- Fabric / Even heavy craft paper would do fine.
I believe most of these things would be at hand if you have even a slightest affinity towards crafting.
This is how I proceeded. First I wrapped the Floral Wire around the Hoop in a random way, starting with a loop at one side and pulling it tight to another side. I continued this until I had the whole ring covered. Like So.
Then I cut the fabric to size and glued it on to the frame of the hoop. Finished off by tying a piece of yarn to hang up. This is not going to be super heavy so didn't need a fastener or hardware to hang up.
That's it, a pretty quick Clip Organiser is ready.

Apply both dynamic and static light scattering for size and molecular weight measurement
Malvern Instruments’ detector range for gel permeation/size exclusion chromatography (GPC/SEC) now includes the Zetasizer µV, a versatile size and molecular weight detector that can be added to any system to boost experimental productivity by maximizing information flow from a single experiment. Complementary to Malvern’s established Viscotek range, which includes detectors for concentration, intrinsic viscosity and absolute molecular weight measurement, the Zetasizer µV is a dual integrated light scattering system with particular value for protein characterization. It is easily connected to an existing GPC/SEC system using standard chromatography tubing and results reporting and analysis are efficiently handled through Malvern’s powerful OmniSEC software.
With GPC/SEC the productivity of analysis is directly impacted by the number of detectors applied to the eluting, fractionated samples. The Zetasizer µV uses dynamic light scattering to secure precise molecular size measurement while at the same time offering static light scattering for absolute molecular weight measurement. In protein characterization these capabilities support the detailed study of aggregation and conjugation and the flexibility to use the detector in cuvette mode is an important added bonus, one that allows the characterization of discrete samples with just 2 µL of material.
The versatile Zetasizer µV can be added to any protein SEC system to bring absolute molecular size and molecular weight capability to the chromatography experiment, and avoid the need to calibrate the column. In addition, the change over from chromatography detector to ultra-sensitive batch DLS takes just a few seconds, maximizing the overall productivity of the instrument.

Objective To evaluate the MR compatibility of three metal acupuncture needles (a standard stainless steel needle, a gold needle and an austenitic stainless steel needle) by comparing their imaging artefacts, radiofrequency heating effects and ease of operation.
Methods The MRI artefacts of the three metal needles were first evaluated by placing them in an agar gel phantom and performing MRI of the phantom. The increase in temperature during MRI was recorded using an MR-compatible fibreoptic thermometer. MRI of acupuncture at SP6 was performed using the MR-compatible gold needle and the austenitic stainless steel needle.
Results The standard stainless steel acupuncture needle produced large imaging artefacts on MRI. The gold needle was superior for MRI but not rigid enough for some clinical applications such as scalp acupuncture. The austenitic stainless steel needle is non-ferromagnetic and compatible with MRI. None of these acupuncture needles introduced radiofrequency heating during MRI.
Conclusions The evaluation of MR compatibility showed that gold and austenitic stainless steel needles are MR-compatible and therefore can be used for MRI of acupuncture.
Statistics from Altmetric.com
Acupuncture, an important component of Traditional Chinese Medicine, has gradually been recognised and accepted by the Western medical community. However, the underlying mechanisms of acupuncture have not yet been fully established. With the development of functional MRI (fMRI), investigators have begun to explore the correlation between acupuncture points and specific functional areas of the brain.1–7 Traditional metal needles made of ferromagnetic materials8 ,9 are not MR-compatible and generate large artefacts on MRI. Because of the lack of MR-compatible acupuncture needles, researchers have been unable to study the effects of stimulation acupuncture points on the upper torso or the head, such as GV24 Shenting, LI20 Yingxiang and GV14 Dazhui, or scalp acupuncture points used for stroke treatment using MRI. Ferromagnetic needles experience magnetic force within the MRI scanner which may lead to needles being pulled out of tissues and pose a risk to the subject, especially to the head or eyes. In addition, metal acupuncture needles may act as electrical conductors and induce a temperature increase during radiofrequency (RF) transmission in MRI.10 In order for MRI technology to be applied to acupuncture research, needles must be non-magnetic and non-susceptible to RF-related heating that could damage tissues adjacent to the inserted needle.
Beissner et al11 recently evaluated several acupuncture needles and concluded that conventional acupuncture needles should not be used in the MRI environment and suggested that non-ferromagnetic or plastic needles may be used as alternatives. However, the plastic needle they assessed has some disadvantages in comparison with metal needles—for example, it cannot be used for electroacupuncture.
In this study we performed experiments to evaluate MR compatibility of three metal acupuncture needles, including a standard stainless steel needle, a gold needle and an austenitic stainless steel needle, by comparing their imaging artefacts, RF heating effects, cost and ease of operation. In vivo MRI of acupuncture at the lower leg acupuncture point SP6 Sanyinjiao was performed using MR-compatible gold and austenitic stainless steel needles.
Materials and methods
Metal acupuncture needles
The metal acupuncture needles used in this study were a traditional stainless steel acupuncture needle, a 75% pure gold needle and an austenitic stainless steel needle customised for MRI of acupuncture. Details of these three needles are summarised in table 1.
The length and diameter of the standard stainless steel needle and the gold needle were 4 cm and 0.3 mm, respectively, whereas the austenitic stainless steel needle was slightly longer and thicker (5 cm long with a diameter of 0.32 mm).
In vitro MRI evaluation of metal acupuncture needles
Experiments were performed to compare MRI artefacts of the needles and to measure temperature increases in an agar gel phantom during MRI scanning. MRI scans were obtained on a whole body 3 T MRI scanner (MAGNETOM Trio Tim, Siemens, Erlangen, Germany) equipped with a body coil for RF transmission.
The needle was inserted into the phantom and a gradient-echo fast low angle shot (FLASH) sequence12 ,13 was used to obtain T1-weighted MRI with TR 100 ms, TE 2.86 ms, field of view (FOV) 150 mm×117 mm, flip angle 70°, matrix size 256×320, slice thickness 5 mm and in-plane resolution 0.6 mm×0.5 mm. Five slices around the needle were obtained to evaluate the imaging artefacts of the needles.
To measure the temperature variation during MRI scanning, the needle was removed from the phantom and attached to an MR-compatible fibreoptic thermometer with a sensitivity of 0.01°C. The tip of the thermometer, where the sensor is situated, was attached to the needle and the attached needle and thermometer were inserted into the phantom. The temperature was recorded every 5 s during MRI scanning. The MRI pulse sequences included: (1) a T2*-weighted echo planar imaging (EPI) sequence14–16 with TR 2000 ms, TE 30 ms, FOV 150 mm×150 mm, flip angle 90° and slice thickness 3 mm; and (2) a T1-weighted gradient-echo FLASH sequence with TR 8 ms, TE 2.86 ms, FOV 150 mm×117 mm, flip angle 70°, matrix size 256×320 and slice thickness 3 mm, which can produce a high specific absorption rate (SAR) to induce a potential heating effect. In both MRI sequences the number of measurements was set to 700 and the total scanning time was 23 min and 32 s (700 TRs). The temperature records were processed using MATLAB 2010 (Matlab, Asheboro, North Carolina, USA), in which the temperatures at every 12 consecutive time points were averaged; 23 average temperatures were obtained and presented as a curve of temperature versus imaging time.
In vivo MRI of acupuncture using metal needles
After MR evaluation of the compatibility of the three needles in the phantom, the gold needle and the austenitic stainless steel needle were used for in vivo MRI of human acupuncture; the standard stainless needle was not used because of the in vitro imaging artefact (see below). SP6, located on the medial side of the leg 10 cm above the tip of the medial malleolus and posterior to the medial border of the tibia, was chosen for needle insertion by a professional acupuncturist. Two orientations, the coronal and transversal planes, were scanned using a fast spin echo sequence with TR 700 ms, TE 27 ms, flip angle 120°, matrix size 512×435 and slice thickness 2 mm.17 ,18 The FOV of the coronal plane was 300 mm×201 mm, while the FOV of the transversal plane was 300 mm×120 mm. After MRI of acupuncture, the needle was removed from the acupuncture point.
In vitro phantom experiment
The T1-weighted MRI of acupuncture needles in the phantom are shown in figure 1. The MRI results show that the standard stainless steel needle produced a large artefact, where most signal generated by the needle and its surrounding was missed. The gold needle generated a relatively small artefact, and the austenitic stainless steel needle also induced relatively small artefact on the images, which provide clear data at most regions within the FOV.
The temperature increases of the three needles during 700-TR MR scanning are shown in figures 2 and 3. For the EPI sequence, all of the temperature curves were almost horizontal, indicating no RF heating risk when using these metal needles (figure 2). For the FLASH sequence, the slope of the increase in temperature was slightly larger than for EPI scanning (figure 3), but the temperature variation was still small and should be safe for patients. The temperature evaluation of the three needles was repeated at least four times.
Comparing the temperature changes of the three metal needles, we found that all the temperatures tended to increase, but the maximum rise was less than 0.5°C and should not be perceptible to the patient nor influence the MRI.
In vivo MRI of acupuncture
The coronal and transversal planes of the in vivo MRI are shown in figure 4. The MRI showed that the gold needle (figure 4A) produced a smaller artefact than the austenitic stainless steel needle (figure 4B). However, it was difficult to determine the exact depth of insertion of the gold needle, especially in muscle, since the contrast between the needle and its surrounding is low. In addition, the gold needle is less rigid than the stainless steel needle and bends during insertion under the skin, particularly in areas of resistance such as the scalp.
Acupuncture needles evolved originally from bian-stone, bamboo and bone to metals such as bronze, gold, silver and stainless steel. However, the same acupuncture manipulation with different kinds of needles may produce different effects. Among these materials, the stiffness and toughness of copper, gold and silver needles is less than that of stainless steel needles. As fMRI is being increasingly used for acupuncture studies, MRI-compatible metal needles have attracted increased attention from investigators. Plastic needles can be used for MRI of acupuncture,11 but they are not commonly used in the clinic because of their low elasticity and extremely low electrical conductivity. Standard stainless steel needles are widely used in the clinic; however, they generate serious artefacts and may experience a magnetic force inside the MRI scanner. Evidence from previous work11 and our present study confirms that standard stainless steel acupuncture needles are unsafe and generate a significant artefact, so cannot be used in MRI scanners. Our experimental results show that the gold needle is superior because of the small imaging artefacts and the high level of safety in MRI. However, it is soft and tends to bend during acupuncture, which makes it difficult to control the insertion depth when being used for certain treatments. In addition, the higher cost makes it less practical for widespread use in the clinic.
The austenitic stainless steel, which differs from the standard stainless steel in its composition and molecular structure,19 is a possible option as an MR-compatible material. The austenitic matrix changes the susceptibility of the normal stainless steel, resulting in a reduction in magnetic field distortion and imaging artefacts.20 In addition, it is stiffer than a gold needle, so it is easier to manufacture and to use for acupuncture studies.
Previous studies have shown that long conductive wires can induce RF heating in the surrounding tissue during MRI.15 ,21 Some investigations showed that the effect may lead to an increase in temperature of more than 60°C at the tip when the resonance conditions were met for an antenna.21 In our study, two commonly used sequences for fMRI of acupuncture, the EPI and FLASH sequences, were used for temperature measurement. EPI is a fast data collection sequence with multiple echoes in an excitation, and the TR of EPI should be set long enough to meet its acquisition scheme.13 The EPI sequence therefore has a lower SAR value, so the RF heating power could spread out during a long TR. To ensure the safety of the needles with regard to heating, we designed our second test at a critical condition using a FLASH pulse sequence with a short TR and high SAR. Although all the temperature measurements showed a tendency to increase, none of the three needles produced an increment larger than 0.5°C during 20 min MR scanning, indicating that none of these metal needles induced RF heating problems during MR scanning. However, it is necessary to conduct further tests to evaluate the safety of MRI when the needles are connected to a long cable for electrostimulation.
In conclusion, we performed a series of in vitro and in vivo experiments to evaluate MR compatibility of three metal acupuncture needles made of standard stainless steel, gold and austenitic stainless steel, respectively. The experimental results showed that the traditional stainless steel needle is not MR-compatible and thus is not recommended for use in MRI. The gold needle and the austenitic stainless steel needle demonstrated higher MR compatibility and smaller imaging artefacts. None of the three needles showed RF heating risk during MRI of acupuncture. The clinical use of gold needles is not practical due to their high cost and softness. The austenitic needle is inexpensive, strong enough to penetrate thick skin such as the scalp and appropriate for electrical stimulation, so it is the most practical type of acupuncture needle for MRI of acupuncture.
We compared the performance of standard, gold and austenitic stainless steel needles in MRI.
The temperature increase was <0.5°C for all three needles.
Standard needles gave an obscure image and so were unsuitable for MR; the other two types are MR-compatible and austenitic stainless has some advantages over gold.
Contributors BQ and LM designed the experiment. LM performed the experiment, assisted by YD and HY who were licensed acupuncturists. The austenitic stainless steel needle was provided by WY. After the experiment, LM and XL processed the data and wrote the paper which was finally revised by XL, BQ and LJS.

My friend, Jenny Feldon, wrote a book, got published (published!!), and in honor of her release, I allowed her to poke a little bit of fun at me…..
Jenny’s book, Karma Gone Bad, is based on her moving to India (India!!) for her husband’s job. To someone who likes to remain stateside, I could not even imagine. Actually, neither could Jenny in the beginning. Her initial response went something like this:
“India?” [she] repeated. “India, like the country?”
Jenny, being much braver than I could ever imagine, chucked her Jimmy Choo’s and packed up her dog (dog!!) and went to India. I did not get to know Jenny until after she returned to the states, had a couple of babies, and started writing a blog (like me). We originally met through our blogs, but quickly realized we had friends in common (the power of the internet hard at work). We started to form a bond over the waves of the internetz, and finally made a plan to meet up at Blogher ’12 in NYC.
This is where the poking fun at me starts. The following is Jenny’s retelling of our initial meeting which happened to coincide with her GETTING A BOOK DEAL.
I’d been “online” friends with Rachel (with real-life mutual friends that made our connection feel even more cosmic) for what felt like forever before I finally met her in person at BlogHer ’12. She’d become a good friend in the virtual world and I couldn’t wait to give her a hug and turn our friendship into the real world kind. Minutes before I got on the subway to meet her at Starbucks for coffee, my agent told me we’d gotten our first offer on Karma Gone Bad. Rachel was the first person I told.

HIV infections up in Europe and Central Asia
Stockholm: HIV infections in Europe and Central Asia increased by eight percent in 2012 compared to a year earlier, the European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control announced Wednesday.
The rise of 131,000 new cases was driven by a nine-percent increase in the Eastern Europe and Central Asia region which accounted for 102,000 new infections -- around three-quarters of them in the Russian Federation alone.
In the European Union and Iceland, Liechtenstein and Norway, new infections rose by less than one percent to 29,000, according to the joint report by the EU agency and the World Health Organisation (WHO).
Almost half of the new cases were detected at an advanced stage of the infection which raises the risk of transmission to others.
Among the reasons for the increase is the lack of awareness of anti-retroviral treatments.
"We know that providing antiretroviral therapy earlier will allow people with HIV to live longer and healthier lives, and will reduce the risk that they transmit HIV to others," WHO regional director for Europe, Zsuzsanna Jakab said.
AIDS cases were down by 48 percent in Western Europe between 2006 and 2012, while in Eastern Europe and Central Asia, the number of newly diagnosed cases of the disease caused by HIV increased by 113 percent.
According to the report, only one in three people in need of anti-retroviral therapy was receiving in last year, despite improved figures compared to 2011.
In 2011 there were 2,300,000 people living with HIV in Europe and Central Asia, according to the WHO

Container traffic increases after port operator upgrade
The Autonomous Port of Phnom Penh (PPAP) saw an increase in demand for container ships last month after an upgrade in sea container handling and loading capacity. Some 32,441 twenty-foot equivalent units (TEUs) passed through the port in October, an increase of more than 57% from the same month last year.
A TEU is based on the volume of a 20-foot-long (6.1-meter) container, which can be easily transferred between different modes of transportation, such as ships, trains, and trucks.
There was a 7.3% increase in freighters last month. Demand for cargo and gaseous fuel increased 9.7 percent. There were no passengers because there were no boats to transport them.
For the first 10 months of the year, container volume increased by more than 19%, compared to the same period a year earlier, to reach 288,848 TEUs. Cargo ships fell 0.05%, but cargoes and diesel increased nearly 5%. Again, there were no passengers or passenger boats, compared to 9,733 passengers on 126 ships in January-October 2020.
PPAP launched a new container terminal in September, increasing its full container handling capacity to 400,000 TEUs per year.
Construction of the $ 18.4 million container terminal began in 2019 and was completed in mid-2021. It covers 2.75 hectares of land and is capable of handling 100,000 TEUs of containers per year.
In 2019, PPAP processed some 290,000 containers.
PPAP shares are traded on the main board of the Cambodia Stock Exchange. They ended Friday’s session up 0.67% to 14,980 riel per share.

Foreword:- It is surprising that we would have liked to attend so long for a model new book that gives an entire treatment of chlor-alkali manufacturing technology. Technologists are largely nonetheless making do with the classical book edited by Sconce, nevertheless that is larger than thirty years earlier. On the time of its publication, metallic anodes have been merely beginning to appear, and ion-change membrane technology was confined to laboratories. The numerous encyclopedias of industrial technology have additional up-to-date information, nevertheless they’re primarily restricted of their scope. Schmittinger simply recently provided an outstanding shorter treatment of the broad topic of chlorine technology and functions. After discussing electrolysis and the principal varieties of cell, this, too, offers considerably momentary protection to brine and product processing. It then follows on with descriptions of crucial derivatives and direct makes use of of chlorine and a dialogue of environmental factors.
The ultimate perform named above has relieved the authors of this work of the obligation to cowl functions in any aspect. Instead, they provide a concentrated treatment of all parts of technology and coping with instantly related to the merchandise of electrolysis. It covers the sector from a historic previous of the business, by way of the fundamentals of thermodynamics and electrochemistry, to the treatment and disposal of the waste merchandise of manufacture. Membrane cells are thought-concerning the state of the paintings, nevertheless the book does not ignore mercury and diaphragm cells. They’re thought-about every from a historic perspective and as examples of current technology that is nonetheless evolving and enhancing. Expensive to the center of a director of Euro Chlor, the book moreover pays specific consideration to protected coping with of the merchandise, the obligations of Accountable Care®, and course of safety administration.
Totally different important topics embrace corrosion, membranes, electrolyzer design, brine preparation and treatment, and the design and operation of processing facilities. Perhaps uniquely, the book moreover contains a chapter on plant commissioning. The protection of membranes is every elementary and utilized. The underlying transport processes and smart experience with current varieties of membrane every are coated. The similar is true of electrolyzer design. The book explores the important electrode processes and the fundamentals of current distribution in electrolyzers along with the traits of the primary cell designs. The authors have chosen to cope with the essential matter of brine treatment in two separate chapters. The chapter on brine manufacturing and treatment first covers the sources of salt and the strategies used to arrange brine. It then explains the mechanisms by which brine impurities affect cell effectivity and descriptions the processes by which they’re typically eradicated or managed. Whereas mentioning the scarcity of elementary science in so much of the tactic, it describes the numerous unit operations phenomenologically and discusses methods for sizing gear and choosing provides of improvement. The chapter on processing and coping with of merchandise is equally full. As soon as extra, it is nice to see that the authors have included a protracted dialogue of protected methods and facilities for the coping with of the merchandise, notably liquid chlorine. Whereas the dialogue of the numerous processing steps consists of the topic of course of administration, there’s moreover a separate chapter on instrumentation which is additional hardware-oriented.
Totally different chapters deal with utility strategies, cell room design and affiliation (with an emphasis on direct current present), numerous processes for the manufacturing of each chlorine or caustic with out the other, the manufacturing of hypochlorite, industrial hygiene, and speculations on future developments in technology. There’s an Appendix with chosen bodily property data.

Bad news for those of you anticipating Arkane Studios' and Valve's "crossplay" FPS The Crossing (and for those of you with good memories). After the two-year anniversary of the game's debut passed earlier this year, we renewed our attempts to get some information on the innovative shooter. In case you don't remember, The Crossing promised to merge single-player and multiplayer gaming (hence the "crossplay" moniker). Two years ago, the premise seemed impossibly ambitious; now, after the success of Valve's Left 4 Dead (and, specifically, its Versus mode) we're a lot more confident the approach could work.
So, what happened to the project? "We ran into an unexpected financial challenge some months ago and we had to put The Crossing on hold," Raphael Colantonio, CEO and creative director of Arkane Studios, told us. "Since then, we shifted our efforts to other very good projects." Two of those projects are reportedly underway at Arkane's Austin studio, an FPS RPG and a "casual strategy game" for the iPhone, under the direction of Deus Ex-alum Harvey Smith.

Love is Our Highest Calling - Prayer Tents
4They lie awake at night, hatching sinful plots. Their actions are never good. They make no attempt to turn from evil. 5Your unfailing love, O LORD, is as vast as the heavens; your faithfulness reaches beyond the clouds.

Design-basis threat (DBT)
A profile of the type, composition, and capabilities of an adversary. The NRC and its licensees use the DBT as a basis for designing safeguards systems to protect against acts of radiological sabotage and to prevent the theft of special nuclear material. The DBT is described in detail in Title 10, Section 73.1(a), of the Code of Federal Regulations [10 CFR 73.1(a)]. Nuclear facility licensees are expected to demonstrate they can defend against the DBT. For further detail, see Protecting Our Nation.

It will be assigned to the actor and actress whose performance was particularly significant during the last year, and in some way similar to Toni Bertorelli’s style, that is, out of the usual aesthetic and acting canons. Moreover, the First Work Award – Sono arrivato prima! will be given to the best debut of the year according to the readers of the Rivista del Cinematografo and Cinematografo.it.
