Tea gardens play a significant role in the global tea industry, providing employment to millions of workers worldwide. However, tea garden workers often confront numerous challenges that impact their livelihoods, well-being, and overall quality of life. This blog delves into the problems faced by tea garden workers and proposes potential solutions to address these issues.
Low Wages: Struggling to Make Ends Meet
Low wages are a significant issue faced by tea garden workers, leaving them struggling to make ends meet. Many workers in tea gardens are paid minimal wages that do not adequately cover their basic needs. This situation perpetuates a cycle of poverty, making it challenging for workers to provide for themselves and their families.
The consequences of low wages extend beyond financial hardships, affecting nutrition, healthcare, and education. Workers often find it difficult to afford nutritious food, leading to malnutrition and health problems. Additionally, the limited income restricts access to proper healthcare and education, depriving workers and their children of essential services and opportunities for a better future.
To address this problem, it is crucial to establish fair wage policies that ensure tea garden workers receive remuneration that meets the cost of living. Governments, plantation owners, and labor unions should collaborate to set minimum wage standards and ensure their implementation. Collective bargaining can empower workers to negotiate better wages and working conditions.
Embracing fair trade practices, such as fair trade certification, can also contribute to fair wages for tea garden workers. By enhancing the financial well-being of tea garden workers, we can uplift their quality of life and enable them to meet their basic needs while also fostering a more equitable tea industry.
Poor Working Conditions: Affecting Health and Well-being of Tea GardenProblems faced by tea Garden workers and Solutions Workers
Poor working conditions in tea gardens have a detrimental impact on the health and well-being of tea garden workers. They are many times subjected to long working hours and physical exhaustion, which can lead to fatigue, musculoskeletal issues, and overall diminished productivity. Additionally, exposure to hazardous chemicals and pesticides used in tea plantations poses serious health risks, including respiratory problems, skin diseases, and long-term complications.
Several solutions can be implemented to counter these challenges. Firstly, ensuring safe and healthy working environments is essential. Secondly, proper safety measures and training should be introduced to educate workers about potential hazards and how to mitigate them. Thirdly, access to clean drinking water and sanitation facilities should be prioritized to maintain hygiene standards. This can be achieved through the provision of clean water sources and the construction of adequate toilet facilities.
Limited Access to Healthcare and Social Security
Limited access to healthcare and social security is a significant challenge faced by tea garden workers. These workers often reside in remote areas, making it difficult for them to access quality healthcare services. Moreover, their limited income and lack of awareness about available healthcare options further exacerbate the problem. The absence of social security benefits, such as insurance and retirement plans, adds to their vulnerability and uncertainty about their future.
To address these issues establishing healthcare services in or near tea garden areas can provide better access to medical facilities. Furthermore, awareness programs should be conducted to educate workers about available healthcare resources, preventive measures, and the importance of regular check-ups.
Lack of Skill Development and Education Opportunities
Tea garden workers many times face limited access to education and skill development opportunities. Many tea gardens are located in remote areas where educational facilities are scarce. Illiteracy and limited skills can perpetuate a cycle of unemployment and hinder the workers’ ability to seek better employment opportunities beyond the tea gardens. The lack of education also limits their ability to advocate for their rights and negotiate better working conditions.
To counter this problem establishing education and skill development centers within or near tea garden communities can provide formal education and vocational training to workers. These centers can offer basic literacy programs, numeracy classes, and courses on various skills such as agricultural techniques, computer literacy, and entrepreneurship.
Furthermore, encouraging public-private partnerships can help fund and support training programs specifically designed for tea garden workers. Plantation owners can invest in training initiatives to enhance the skills of their workforce and create a more efficient and productive tea industry.
The problems faced by tea garden workers are complex and require multi-faceted solutions involving various stakeholders, including governments, plantation owners, labor unions, and civil society.
By addressing low wages, improving working conditions, ensuring access to healthcare and social security, eliminating exploitative practices, and promoting education and skill development, we can work towards creating a more equitable and sustainable tea industry. It is crucial to prioritize the well-being and rights of tea garden workers to achieve a fair and prosperous future for all.

Sacred means valued due to involvement with holiness. Holiness, or sanctity, is generally the state of being holy or sacred. In other situations, “objects are frequently considered ‘holy’ or ‘sacred’ if used for spiritual purposes", such as the worship or service of gods.
These terms can also be employed in a non-religious or semi-religious context. It is often credited to people (“a holy man” of spiritual occupation, “holy prophet” who is respected by his followers), objects (“sacred object” that is venerated and blessed), times (“holy days” of spiritual introspection, such as in winter holidays), or places (“sacred ground”, “holy place”).

Wow, since Sept 21st? Are they still accepting deposits? If so, they're probably so financially strapped they need the increased cash flow to pay out the winners. Try not to play it back and wait to see if they finally pay (that's if they survive). There's nothing else you can do unfortunately as they are just another unlicensed casino in Costa Rica.

# Let d(n) be defined as the sum of proper divisors of n (numbers less than n which divide evenly into n).
# If d(a) = b and d(b) = a, where a != b, then a and b are an amicable pair and each of a and b are called amicable numbers.

People, buildings and industry are densely packed in cities. Heat gets trapped, meaning the ambient temperature is often higher than the immediate surroundings. This is known as the Urban Heat Island (UHI) effect, and scientists expect it to intensify as the climate warms further.
Not all towns and cities are the same. Research by Bin Zhou from the Potsdam Institute for Climate Research finds the summer UHI effect is closely related to the size of the city. But other factors such as the layout, how much vegetation exists and the proximity of the city to the sea (where breezes have a cooling effect) all affect how big the UHI is, other research suggests.

An electrical device used to charge rechargeable batteries. Chargers come in a variety of configurations, depending on the need. Many chargers are limited to certain types of batteries (such as NiCad, NiMH, or LiPo), or a certain number of cells. Chargers range in complexity from simple adapters that plug directly into an outlet (overnight wall chargers) to Multi function units that discharge, condition, charge, peak, then maintain your cells according to your settings. There is probably even a charger out there that can warm up your sandwiches while you wait for your cells to peak.
When charging different kinds of batteries, you may need to use different suitable leads.You may find varies types of leads and connectors to satisfy your need of charge.

# Sets (Page 2/2)
Page 2 / 2
$A=\left\{\text{x: x is a vowel in English alphabet}\right\}$
$B=\left\{\text{x: x is an integer and}\phantom{\rule{2pt}{0ex}}0
The roaster equivalents of two sets are :
$A=\left\{a,e,i,o,u\right\}$
$B=\left\{1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9\right\}$
Can we write set “B” as the one which comprises single digit natural number? Yes. Thus, we can see that there are indeed different ways to define and identify members and hence the flexibility in defining collection.
We should be careful in using words like “and” and “or” in writing qualification for the set. Consider the example here :
$C=\left\{\text{x:}x\in Z\phantom{\rule{2pt}{0ex}}\text{and}\phantom{\rule{2pt}{0ex}}2
Both conditional qualifications are used to determine the collection. The elements of the set as defined above are integers. Thus, the only member of the set is “3”.
Now, let us consider an example, which involves “or” in the qualification,
$C=\left\{\text{x:}\phantom{\rule{2pt}{0ex}}x\in A\phantom{\rule{2pt}{0ex}}\text{or}\phantom{\rule{2pt}{0ex}}x\in B\right\}$
The member of this set can be elements belonging to either of two sets "A" and "B". The set consists of elements (i) belonging exclusively to set "A", (ii) elements belonging exclusively to set "B" and (iii) elements common to sets "A" and "B".
## Example
Problem 1 : A set in roaster form is given as :
$A=\left\{\frac{{5}^{2}}{6},\frac{{6}^{2}}{7},\frac{{7}^{2}}{8}\right\}$
Write the set in “set builder form”.
Solution : We see here that we are dealing with natural numbers. The numerators are square of natural numbers in sequence. The number in denominator is one more than numerator for each member. We can denote natural number by “n”. Clearly, if numerator is “ ${n}^{2}$ ”, then denominator is “n+1”. Therefore, the expression that represent a member of the set is :
$x=\frac{{n}^{2}}{n+1}$
However, this set is not an infinite set. It has exactly three members. Therefore, we need to specify “n” so that only members of the set are exclusively denoted by the above expression. We see here that “n” is greater than 4, but “n” is less than 8. For representing three elements of the set,
$5\le n\le 7$
We can write the set, now, in the builder form as :
$A=\left\{x:\phantom{\rule{1em}{0ex}}x=\frac{{n}^{2}}{n+1},\text{where "n" is a natural number and}\phantom{\rule{1em}{0ex}}5\le n\le 7\right\}$
In set builder form, the sequence within the range is implied. It means that we start with the first valid natural number and proceed sequentially till the last valid natural number.
## Some important sets representing numbers
Few key number sets are used regularly in mathematical context. As we use these sets often, it is convenient to have predefined symbols :
• P(prime numbers)
• N (natural numbers)
• Z (integers)
• Q (rational numbers)
• R (real numbers)
We put a superscript “+”, if we want to specify membership of only positive numbers, where appropriate. " ${Z}^{+}$ ", for example, means set of positive integers.
## Empty set
An empty set has no member or object. It is denoted by symbol “φ” and is represented by a pair of braces without any member or object.
$\phi =\left\{\right\}$
The empty set is also called “null” or “void” set. For example, consider a definition : “the set of integer between 1 and 2”. There is no integer within this range. Hence, the set corresponding to this definition is an empty set. Consider another example :
$B=\left\{x:\phantom{\rule{1em}{0ex}}{x}^{2}=4\phantom{\rule{1em}{0ex}}\text{and x is odd}\right\}$
An odd integer squared can not be even. Hence, set “B” also does not have any element in it.
There is a bit of paradox here. If the definition does not yield an element, then the set is not well defined. We may be tempted to say that empty set is not a set in the first place. However, there is a practical reason to have an empty set. It enables mathematical operations. We shall find many examples as we study operations on sets.
## Equal sets
The members of two equal sets are exactly same. There is nothing more to it. However, we need to know two special aspects of this equality. We mentioned about repetition of elements in a set. We observed that repetition of elements does not change the set. Consider example here :
$A=\left\{1,5,5,8,7\right\}=\left\{1,5,8,7\right\}$
Another point is that sequence does not change the set. Therefore,
$A=\left\{1,5,8,7\right\}=\left\{5,7,8,1\right\}$
In the nutshell, when we have to compare two sets we look for distinct elements only. If they are same, then two sets in question are equal.
## Cardinality
Cardinality is the numbers of elements in a set. It is denoted by modulus of set like |A|.
Cardinality
The cardinality of a set “A” is equal to numbers of elements in the set.
The cardinality of an empty set is zero. The cardinality of a finite set is some positive integers. The cardinality of a number system like integers is infinity. Curiously, the cardinality of some infinite set can be compared. For example, the cardinality of natural numbers is less than that of integers. However, we can not make such deduction for the most case of infinite sets.

होम > राज्य > उत्तर प्रदेश > शामली > शामली : खाप पंचायत के घेरे में बीजेपी विधायक के बेटे, देश से माफ़ी नहीं तो होगा बहिष्कार
गठवाला खाप के चौधरी बाबा राजेंद्र मलिक ने खाप के लोगों के साथ एक मीटिंग कर यह फरमान सुनाया है कि अगर विधायक के बेटे ने देश और खाप से माफी नहीं मांगी तो उनका खाप से बहिष्कार कर दिया जाएग
शामली: मुजफ्फरनगर की बुढ़ाना विधानसभा सीट से भारतीय जनता पार्टी के विधायक उमेश मलिक की मुसीबतें कम होने का नाम नहीं ले रही है जहां एक तरफ उनके बेटे ने देश के प्रति विवादित टिप्पणी को लेकर वह पहले से ही विपक्ष के निशाने पर थे और अब खाप भी मैदान में उतर गई है। गठवाला खाप के चौधरी बाबा राजेंद्र मलिक ने खाप के लोगों के साथ एक मीटिंग कर यह फरमान सुनाया है कि अगर विधायक के बेटे ने देश और खाप से माफी नहीं मांगी तो उनका खाप से बहिष्कार कर दिया जाएगा। खाप चौधरी ने कहां है कि अगर माफी नहीं मांगी तो वह सरकार से यह भी आग्रह करेंगे कि विधायक के बेटे की भारत की नागरिकता खत्म कर दी जाए और उसके खिलाफ देशद्रोह का मुकदमा दर्ज किया जाए।
उमेश मलिक के बेटे ने देश के प्रति विवादित टिप्पणी की
दरअसल, आपको बता दें कि पूरा मामला जनपद शामली का है जहां पर सदर कोतवाली क्षेत्र के गांव लिसाढ़ में गठवाला खाप के चौधरी बाबा राजेंद्र सिंह ने खाप के लोगों के साथ एक मीटिंग की और मीटिंग कर यह निर्णय लिया की बुढ़ाना विधानसभा सीट से बीजेपी के विधायक उमेश मलिक के बेटे ने देश के प्रति जो विवादित टिप्पणी की है वह सरासर गलत है इससे देश का ही नहीं अपितु खाप का भी अपमान हुआ है। बाबा ने बीजेपी विधायक के बेटे के खिलाफ एक फरमान जारी किया है और कहा है कि अगर विधायक के बेटे ने देश और गठवाला खाप से माफी नहीं मांगी तो वह विधायक और उनके बेटे का खाप से बहिष्कार कर देंगे क्योंकि जिस प्रकार का बयान विधायक के बेटे द्वारा दिया गया है वह बेहद शर्मन
विधायक के बेटे की भारत की नागरिकता को समाप्त कर दिया जाए
इससे खाप की छवि धूमिल हुई है और लोग खाप पर सवालिया निशान खड़े कर रहे हैं। खाप के चौधरी ने यह भी कहा कि अगर विधायक के बेटे द्वारा देश और खाप से माफी नहीं मांगी जाती है तो वह सरकार से यह भी आग्रह करेंगे कि विधायक के बेटे की भारत की नागरिकता को समाप्त कर दिया जाए और उसके खिलाफ देशद्रोह का मुकदमा भी दर्ज किया जाए। बाबा ने यह भी कहा कि देश और खाप में ऐसे लोगों की जरूरत बिल्कुल नहीं है जो अपनी खाप के साथ-साथ पूरे देश को भी शर्मसार कर दें और विधायक के बेटे का इस तरह की टिप्पणी वो भी उस देश के खिलाफ जहां पर उसने जन्म लिया और जिस देश ने उसे पाल पोस कर बड़ा किया।
गठवाला खाप के शामली क्षेत्र में ५२ गांव हैं
आपको बता दें कि बीजेपी विधायक उमेश मलिक का गोत्र मलिक है और मलिक गोत्र गठवाला खाप में आता है और गठवाला खाप के चौधरी बाबा राजेंद्र सिंह है जो कि शामली की सदर कोतवाली क्षेत्र के गांव लिसाढ़ में रहते हैं और गठवाला खाप के शामली क्षेत्र में ५२ गांव है जिनके चौधरी बाबा राजेंद्र मलिक है।
देशद्रोह का मुकदमा दर्ज करने की मुख्यमंत्री से मांग
बाबा राजेंद्र का कहना है कि बुढ़ाना विधायक उमेश मलिक के बेटे शुभम ने भारत के खिलाफ जो भी टिप्पणी की है वह निंदनीय है और शर्मनाक है इस मामले में ख्वाब का अपमान हुआ है और अगर विधायक के बेटा माफी नहीं मांगता है तो उसके खिलाफ देशद्रोह का मुकदमा दर्ज करने की मुख्यमंत्री से मांग करेंगे और भारत की नागरिकता समाप्त होने की भी हम मांग करते हैं क्योंकि आज तक वह इसी देश में पला बढ़ा हुआ है ऐसे में देश और ख्वाब का अपमान करना गलत है अगर वह माफी नहीं मांगता है तो हम उसके पिता उमेश मलिक व उसके परिवार का खाप से बहिष्कार कर दिया जाएगा।
अमेरिका में रहकर कोई बड़ा नहीं बन जाता-राजवीर सिंह
राजवीर सिंह का कहना है कि अमेरिका में रहकर कोई बड़ा नहीं बन जाता है तो भारत का ही रहने वाला लेकिन जो भी उसने देश के खिलाफ टिप्पणी की है वह गलत है और उसके पिता को बेटे को समझाना चाहिए कि सामने आकर खाप और भारत देश से माफी मांगे अगर वह माफी नहीं मांगता है तो उसके परिवार का बहिष्कार कर दिया

You may have heard that the COVID vaccine causes infertility – that’s not true. There’s no evidence that the vaccine negatively affects fertility in any way. Many thousands of women have gotten pregnant and had healthy pregnancies after getting COVID vaccines. While one study found that the COVID vaccine was associated with a small, temporary change (less than a day) in menstrual cycles, this shouldn’t affect fertility. To protect yourself and your pregnancy from COVID, get the vaccine right away if you’re trying to conceive, pregnant, or planning to get pregnant in the future.
Does the COVID-19 vaccine affect fertility?
No, there’s no evidence that the COVID vaccine (or any vaccine) causes fertility problems for women or men. It’s important to get your COVID vaccination and booster whether you’re pregnant, trying to get pregnant, or planning to get pregnant in the future. And there’s no need to delay conception after getting a COVID vaccine.
If you’re concerned about fertility after receiving a COVID shot, consider:
Loss of fertility hasn’t been reported among participants in any of the COVID vaccine trials. In fact, about two dozen people in the Pfizer vaccine trials became pregnant while participating in the studies.
Animal studies show no signs of infertility after COVID vaccination.
A report tallying data from the CDC’s v-safe safety monitoring system found that 4,800 people had a positive pregnancy test after receiving their first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine.
There’s no evidence that the pandemic has changed fertility patterns.
One study found no differences in pregnancy rates among women who had COVID-19 antibodies (from vaccination or infection) and those who didn’t have antibodies. It confirmed that COVID vaccination or infection doesn’t prevent embryo implantation or early pregnancy development and concluded that neither COVID nor antibodies made from vaccination will cause sterility.
The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG), the American Society for Reproductive Medicine (ASRM) and the Society for Maternal-Fetal Medicine (SMFM) released a joint statement in February 2021 asserting that COVID vaccines do not impact fertility.
Will getting COVID-19 or the COVID-19 vaccine affect my menstrual cycle in any way?
Some people have reported changes in their menstrual cycle after having a COVID-19 infection. More research is needed, but it’s possible that when the body launches a fight against the illness, hormonal function may be affected, resulting in a change to the menstrual cycle. (We know that many factors – including stress – can affect your period.)
In one small study of COVID patients, nearly one-fifth of them had a menstrual volume decrease or longer cycle (time between periods). Those with severe COVID illness reported longer cycles than those with mild illness. The researchers tested levels of sex hormones and found no significant difference between those with COVID-19 and those without.
In another small study, 16 percent of participants with COVID reported a change in their period. Those who reported changes were more likely to have COVID symptoms such as fatigue, headache, body aches and pains, and shortness of breath than those who didn’t report menstrual change. The change most often reported was irregular menstruation (60 percent), followed by an increase in premenstrual syndrome symptoms (45 percent) and infrequent menstruation (35 percent). The researchers underlined that the study was limited because of the small size and possible confounding factors that they didn’t adjust for.
Data so far shows that most people return to their normal menstrual cycle in a month or two after their COVID-19 infection.
Menstrual cycle information wasn’t collected during the COVID-19 vaccine trials (as is unfortunately standard for any vaccine trial). More studies are needed to determine if the vaccine might affect your menstrual period in any way.
One study of almost 4,000 people who received the COVID-19 vaccine (Moderna, Pfizer, or Johnson & Johnson) concluded that the vaccine was associated with a very small and temporary (0.7 days) change in cycle length (the time between periods) but not in menses length (the total time the period lasts).
It’s common for menstrual cycles to vary slightly from month to month, and they can be affected by stress. We also don’t know if other vaccines might affect a menstrual cycle. (Most vaccinations are given in childhood or during pregnancy, which makes this harder to determine.)
Why do some people think the COVID vaccine affects fertility?
There’s no plausible explanation for how the COVID vaccine would affect fertility.
The widespread myth stems from the idea that the vaccine would cause the body to attack a protein (called syncytin-1) that’s crucial to the formation of the placenta. Proponents of this myth, mostly discussing the topic on social media platforms, claimed that there were significant similarities between syncytin-1 and the spike protein of the COVID virus. But the proteins are not remotely similar. And serum from vaccinated women (thus with antibodies) does not react with the syncytin-1 protein in lab studies.
Although there’s no evidence to support a link between the COVID vaccine and fertility, many people cite it as a reason for not getting vaccinated. According to one study, 58 percent of unvaccinated survey respondents were worried about unknown long-term adverse effects, and 41 percent of those believed that the vaccine can negatively impact reproductive health and/or fertility.
Is the COVID vaccine safe if I’m going through fertility treatments?
Yes, the COVID-19 vaccine is safe while you’re getting fertility treatment, such as in vitro fertilization (IVF) or intrauterine insemination (IUI). According to ASRM, there’s no evidence that vaccination before or during fertility treatment will affect the treatment in any way.
Because you may have some minor side effects after the vaccine, however, you might want to time your vaccine so that it’s not within a few days of any of your procedures so that symptoms of one and the other can be distinguished and so that you feel your best during treatment. You can talk with your reproductive endocrinologist throughout the process to determine what’s best for you.
If you’re donating eggs or sperm, you can still do so after having a COVID vaccine.
Can male fertility be affected by COVID vaccination?
There’s no evidence that the COVID vaccine affects male fertility. One small study of men who received the COVID-19 vaccine found that there were no changes to sperm, such as their number or their movement , before and after vaccination.
Having COVID may negatively affect male fertility, however, including sperm production. Researchers are looking into this. One review of the medical literature on COVID-19 and male fertility, for example, concluded that COVID-19 infection can cause a temporary reduction in testosterone production.
More studies are needed, but at this point it looks like if you’re concerned about fertility, it’s most important to get a COVID vaccine and booster and avoid a COVID-19 infection.
When should I get the COVID vaccine if I’m trying to conceive?
You should get the COVID vaccine right away if you’re trying to conceive. Getting vaccinated now will help protect you from becoming ill with the virus while you’re pregnant. Pregnant women who get COVID are at increased risk of preterm birth and perhaps other pregnancy complications, such as preeclampsia and stillbirth. They’re also at higher risk of severe illness – including intensive care admission, mechanical ventilation, and death.
Be sure to follow up with your booster at the scheduled time, too. It’s safe to receive both your vaccine and your booster shot at any time during pregnancy.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) For eDiscovery Services
Artificial intelligence (AI) may not be rendering any jobs obsolete in the legal field — they definitely can’t consult or build a discovery-to-trial strategy — but they can be used to improve a number of different legal tasks. In particular, the process of eDiscovery can be made both better and faster with the application of some advanced algorithms and data analysis. Here are three of the ways that AI takes eDiscovery services to a whole new level:
1. Using AI to Conduct Narrow Searches of Large Data Sets
If there’s one area in which AI truly shines, it’s in big data mining. AI can leverage the superior resources of a cloud-based infrastructure to comb through and analyze large data sets, looking for narrower and more relevant information — and it can do it all while keeping the data safe and secure. The process of eDiscovery Services often require more information than is strictly relevant at the time; it can be very difficult to manually narrow down these exceptionally large sets of materials into something workable and usable. AI can be used to prioritize documentation based on the likelihood of relevance, so that the process of discovery can start within a narrow spectrum and branch out slowly, rather than having to incorporate all of the provided materials at once. It’s often the case in eDiscovery Services that the most pertinent information can be buried underneath large volumes of non-essential and only vaguely associated documentation.
2. Using AI to Automate Mundane, Routine, and Labor Intensive Tasks
In the past, paralegals and secretaries would be asked to summarize documents selected for discovery to speed up the review process for attorneys. The concept was that a single paragraph could help the attorney determine whether or not more time should be invested in reading the actual document. Attorneys generally billed more, so the time spent by the initial reviewer was considered a ‘savings’. These routine but labor intensive Discovery tasks, (especially eDiscovery due to the potential volume) don’t just slow down the process; they also make the process even costlier. For smaller firms without a lot of manpower on hand, the ability to automate these mundane tasks can make all the difference. Advanced AI algorithms can even use OCR and extracted document text to determine relevancy across millions of documents after attorneys review just a few. This kind of AI works best when Continuous Active Learning (or CAL) is used, which allows reviewers to re-train the algorithm for increased accuracy.
3. Using AI to Perform eDiscovery Services Faster and More Thoroughly
AI can be used to radically reduce the sheer volume of discovery documents that need to be sorted, filed, cataloged, and analyzed — thereby significantly reducing the amount of time that eDiscovery takes. Advanced technology features such as data reduction strategies and de-duplication make it easy to drill down to the most significant documents without potentially losing anything of importance or relevance. AI can be used with eDiscovery Services to automatically cluster documents by content type, highlighting information of potential importance, and trimming away any superfluous materials that have no relevance to the matter at hand. In other words, artificial intelligence paired with the right review platform optimizes the entire process of eDiscovery Services on all levels, providing for a more manageable and more useful experience for any legal firm.
Are your current eDiscovery services draining your firm of hours? Improving upon your technology could be the answer to providing better service even faster to your clients — and reducing the strain on your employees and partners.

| Last week our kitchen ceiling fan and light combo decided to stop working. We don’t like eating in the dark, so I was compelled to do some immediate troubleshooting. As an engineer with training in the workings of electricity I have a great respect for it. I’m well aware of potential hazards, and I took a necessary precaution before taking things apart and disconnecting wires. I made the long haul down the stairs to the basement, opened the circuit breaker in the electrical panel, and disabled the flow of electricity to the kitchen. My fears of potential electrocution having been eliminated, my only remaining fear was of tumbling off the ladder while servicing the fan.
Just as I took the precaution to disconnect the power supply before performing electrical maintenance in my home, workers in industrial settings must do the same, and a chief player in those scenarios is the motor overload relay discussed last week. It automatically shuts down electric motors when they become overheated. Let’s revisit that example now.
Our diagram in Figure 1 shows electric current flowing through the circuit by way of the red path. Even if this line were shut down, current would continue to flow along the path, because there is no means to disconnect the entire control system from the hot and neutral lines supplying power to it, that is, it is missing disconnect switches. Electric current will continue to pose a threat to workers were they to attempt a repair to the system. Now let’s see how we can eliminate potential hazards on the line.
In Figure 2 there is an obvious absence of the color red, indicating the lack of current within the system. We accomplished this with the addition of disconnect switches capable of isolating the motor control circuitry, thereby cutting off the hot and neutral lines of the electrical power supply and along with it the unencumbered flow of electricity.
These switches are basically the same as those seen in earlier diagrams in our series on industrial controls, the difference here is that the two switches are tied together by an insulated mechanical link. This link causes them to open and close at the same time. The switches are opened and closed manually via a handle. When the disconnect switches are both open electricity can’t flow and nothing can operate. Under these conditions there is no risk of a worker coming along and accidentally starting the conveyor motor.
To add yet another level of safety, disconnect switches are often tagged and locked once de-energized. This prevents workers from mistakenly closing them and starting the conveyor while maintenance is being performed. Brightly colored tags alert everyone that maintenance is taking place and the switches must not be closed. The lock that performs this safety function is actually a padlock. It’s inserted through a hole in the switch handle, making it impossible for anyone to flip the switch. Tags and locks are usually placed on switches by maintenance personnel before repairs begin and are removed when work is completed.
Now let’s see how our example control system looks in ladder diagram format.
Figure 3 shows a ladder diagram that includes disconnect switches, an emergency stop button, and the motor overload relay contacts. The insulated mechanical link between the two switches is represented by a dashed line. Oddly enough, engineering convention has it that the motor overload relay heater is typically not shown in a ladder diagram, therefore it is not represented here.
This wraps up our series on industrial control. Next time we’ll begin a discussion on mechanical clutches and how they’re used to transmit power from gasoline engines to tools like chainsaws and grass trimmers.

| Imagine a doctor not washing his hands in between baby deliveries. Unbelievable but true, this was a widespread practice up until last century when infections, followed by death of newborns, was an all-too common occurrence in hospitals across the United States. It took an observant nurse to put two and two together after watching many physicians go from delivery room to delivery room, mother to mother, without washing their hands. Once hand washing in between deliveries was made mandatory, the incidence of infection and death in newborns plummeted.
Why wasn’t this simple and common sense solution instituted earlier? Was it ignorance, negligence, laziness, or a combination thereof that kept doctors from washing up? Whatever the root cause of this ridiculous oversight, it remains a fact of history. Common sense was finally employed, and babies’ lives saved.
The same common sense is at play in the development of the FDA’s Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP) policy, which was developed to ensure the safe production of commercial food products. Like the observant nurse who played watchdog to doctors’ poor hygiene practices and became the catalyst for improved hospital procedures set in place and remaining until today, HACCP policy results in a proactive strategy where hazards are identified, assessed, and then control measures developed to prevent, reduce, and eliminate potential hazards.
In this article, we’ll begin to explore how engineers design food processing equipment and production lines in accordance with the seven HACCP principles. You will note that here, once again, the execution of common sense can solve many problems.
Principle 1: Conduct a hazard analysis. – Those involved in designing food processing equipment and production lines must proactively analyze designs to identify potential food safety hazards. If the hazard analysis reveals contaminants are likely to find their way into food products, then preventive measures are put in place in the form of design revisions.
For example, suppose a food processing machine is designed and hazard analysis reveals that food can accumulate in areas where cleaning is difficult or impossible. This accumulation will rot with time, and the bacteria-laden glop can fall onto uncontaminated food passing through production lines.
As another example, a piece of metal tooling may have been designed with the intent to form food products into a certain shape, but hazard analysis reveals that the tooling is too fragile and cannot withstand the repeated forces imposed on it by the mass production process. There is a strong likelihood that small metal parts can break off and enter the food on the line.
Next time we’ll move on to HACCP Principle 2 and see how design engineers control problems identified during the hazard analysis performed pursuant to Principle 1.
| My wife and I have an agreement concerning the kitchen. She cooks, I clean. Plates and utensils are easy enough to deal with, especially when you have a dishwasher. Pots and pans are a little more challenging. But what I hate the most are the food processors, mixers, blenders, slicers and dicers. They’re designed to make food preparation easier and less time consuming, but they sure don’t make the clean up any easier! Quite frankly, I suspect the time involved to clean them exceeds the time saved in food preparation.
Food processors on a larger scale are also used to manufacture many food products in manufacturing facilities, and being larger and more complicated overall, they’re even more difficult to clean. For example, I once designed a production line incorporating a dough mixer for one of the largest wholesale bakery product suppliers in the United States. A small elevator was required to lift vast amounts of ingredients into a mixing bowl the size of a compact car. Its mixing arms were so heavy, two people were required to lift them into position. It was also my task to ensure that the equipment as designed was capable of being thoroughly cleaned in a timely and cost effective manner.
Food processing machinery must be designed so that all areas coming into contact with ingredients can be readily accessed for cleaning. And since most of the equipment you are dealing with in this setting is far too cumbersome to be portable, the majority of the cleaning must be cleaned in place, known in the industry as CIP. To facilitate CIP, commercial machinery is designed with hatches and special covers that allow workers to get inside with their cleaning equipment. Small, portable parts of the machine, such as pipes, cutting blades, forming mechanisms, and extrusion dies, are often made to be removable so that they can be carried over to an industrial sized sink for cleaning out of place, or COP. These potable machine components are typically removable for COP without the use of any tools and are fitted with flip latches, spring clips, and thumb screws to facilitate the process.
Everything in a food manufacturing facility, from production machinery to conveyor belts, is typically cleaned with hot, pressurized water. The water is ejected from the nozzle end of a hose hooked up to a specially designed valve that mixes steam and cold water. The result is scalding hot pressurized water that easily dislodges food residues. Bacteria doesn’t stand a chance against this barrage. The water, which is maintained at about 180°F, quickly sterilizes everything it makes contact with. It also provides a chemical-free clean that won’t leave behind residues. Once dislodged, debris is flushed out through strategically placed openings in the machine which then empty into nearby floor drains.
As a consequence of the frequent cleanings commercial food preparation machinery requires, their parts must be able to withstand frequent exposure to high pressure water streams. Parts are typically constructed of ultra high molecular weight (UHMW) food-grade plastics and metal alloys such as stainless steels, capable of withstanding the corrosive effects of water. And since water and electricity make a dangerous combination, gaskets and seals on the equipment must be tight enough to protect against water making its way into motors and other electrical parts.
Next time we’ll look at how design engineers of food manufacturing equipment use a systematic approach to minimize the possibility of food safety hazards, such as product contamination.
| Ever wonder why the burger you get at your favorite fast food chain never looks like the one on TV? The bun isn’t fluffy, the beef patty doesn’t make it to the edges, and the lettuce is anything but crisp. Well, it’s because a professional known as a Food Stylist, working together with a professional marketing firm and production crew, has painstakingly created the beautiful, bright and balanced burger used to lure you in. The process can take days or even weeks to create and has nothing to do with reality. The burger you’re really going to get will look more like a gorilla sat on it.
Many of the same issues must be dealt with when mass producing food. Chances are human hands will never even touch the product, like they did when creating the prototype in the test kitchen. In the world of food manufacturing, the “look” part can be extremely challenging. How do you get machines and production lines to create visually appealing food that entices prospective buyers to make an investment in it? How do you get it to taste good, or at least acceptable to the palate?
The “taste” part of food manufacturing can be even more challenging. For example, in the test kitchen of a pastry product manufacturer, a recipe will be developed using home pantry products like flour, butter, and eggs. Ever made bread or a pie crust? The stickiness factor is enough to drive many insane. Even nimble human fingers have a hard time dealing with it. Now enter food processing machinery and conveyor belts into the scenario. This brings the possibility of stickiness to a whole new level. Huge messes that gum up the machinery are common, and production line shutdowns are the result.
When faced with these challenges, plant engineers have to work closely with chefs in the R&D kitchen to come up with some sort of compromise in the recipe or final form of the food product. The goal is to cost effectively produce food products acceptable to consumers for purchase, and it’s often an iterative process involving many successive changes to recipes and equipment designs, coupled with a lot of testing and retesting, before success is finally met. If testing ultimately proves that the product appeals to consumers’ tastes and flows nicely through production lines, then there’s a good chance it will be a commercial success. In any case, cost is the dictating factor as to whether the food product will successfully make it onto the shelves of your supermarket. A margin of profit must be made.
But this success is only part of the design process. Before full commercial production can commence, processing equipment and production lines must be designed so that they:
Next time we’ll explore how cleanliness requirements factor into food manufacturing equipment design.
| If you’ve ever read a book to a small child on the subject of food or digestion, you’ve probably come across the analogy that our stomachs are like a furnace and our digestive system much like an engine. We explain to the youngster that what we eat is important, because our body needs the right fuel in order to operate properly. If little Susie or Danny insisted on eating only candy day after day, their bodies would become weak and sick.
In much the same way a coal power plant is like a living organism, eating fuel in order to function. But instead of meats and vegetables, it eats coal, and the coal handling department of a power plant acts as a dinner table. It’s where the food is placed and prepared before it enters the diner’s mouth.
The coal our power plants consume comes from one of two places, underground mines or strip mines. It all depends on the particular geology of the area from which the coal is harvested. According to the US Energy Information Administration, underground mines are more common in the eastern United States, while strip mines are more common in the western states. The coal from underground mines is excavated by means of shafts and tunnels which are dug deep beneath the earth’s surface in order to provide access to the buried coal deposits. In strip mines the deposits are just below the surface, so the topsoil is merely stripped away with heavy earthmoving machinery, like bulldozers, to reveal the coal. In both types of mining activity excavating machines and conveyors are required to remove the coal from the mine so it can be loaded for shipment to its ultimate destination.
Once harvested, coal is shipped to power plants primarily by train, river barge, or ship. Its journey can cover thousands of miles. It culminates in delivery to a power plant, where it is unloaded by means of a huge piece of machinery called a rotary dumper. This machine is capable of grabbing onto 100 ton railcars and turning them upside down. The coal spills into a large collection hopper positioned next to the railroad track.
If the coal has found its way to a plant located near a waterway, that means of transport was most likely have been made by flat barge or ship. In this case a large crane with a clamshell bucket is used for unloading. The crane drops its bucket into a pile of coal located within the ship’s hold, takes out a large bite, then hoists and dumps its contents into a large collection hopper next to the crane.
To get an idea of how coal flows within the coal handling system of a power plant, let’s refer to the flow chart in Figure 1.
Figure 1 – Schematic Diagram of the Coal Handling System
Collection hoppers and have slanted bottoms which allow coal to easily spill out onto a conveyor belt. Within the plant coal is transported by means of conveyors into what’s known as a “breaker building.” This building lives up to its name because it contains a very large machine whose job it is to break the chunks of raw coal that have been harvested from mines into smaller chunks which the boiler can work with.
Once broken down, the coal will go to one of two places, either directly into silos or coal bunkers in the power plant building for short term storage, or into an outside storage pile, usually a prominent feature of a power plant due to its formidable size. The coal pile can be several stories tall and much larger than a football field. It acts as a reserve supply should the regular delivery of coal be interrupted by labor strike, natural disaster, or equipment failure. When necessary, the coal is removed from the pile and sent into the plant to fill the coal silos. Coal from the silos is used to feed the power plant boilers.
Next week we’ll continue to follow coal’s journey, on its way to arguably one of the most important pieces of equipment in a power plant, the boiler.

Methods for volcanic dating
Pratt goes on to challenge many of the basic tenets of the plate tectonic theory to include the most fundamental concept of plates sliding over the lubricating asthenosphere.It seems as though the lithosphere, which makes up the solid plates, averages 70 km thick beneath the oceans and at least 125 to 250 km thick beneath the continents.In other words, pulling or pushing forces would crush or fracture the crust before the forces could be transmitted to the rest of the plate.It is somewhat like trying to pull a train engine with dental floss.Evidence for significant amounts of submerged continental crust in the present-day oceans provides another major challenge to plate tectonics.
IMAP president David Rothman said that doctor's who took part were violating their oath to 'do no harm'.
The two-year report from Ethics Abandoned: Medical Professionalism And Detainee Abuse In The War On Terror - supported by the Institute on Medicine as a Profession (IMAP) and the Open Society Foundations - lays the blame squarely at the door of the Department of Defense and the CIA.
The 19-man panel claims that the DOD and the CIA ordered their physicians to engage in 'abusive interrogation' techniques, including 'consulting on conditions of confinement to increase the disorientation and anxiety of detainees'.
It refers to the gravitational sinking of the subducted slabs as they slide under the edges of continental shelves.
Of course, subduction does not happen for the edges of plates that are largely continental because continental crust cannot be subducted due to its relatively low density.

biocompatability, biofunctionalization, glucose sensor, implantable, silicon carbide
A continuous glucose sensor employing radio frequency (RF) signals is presented using the biocompatible material Silicon Carbide (SiC). Unlike biosensors that require direct contact with interstitial fluids to trigger chemical reactions to operate, this biocompatible SiC sensor does not require a direct interface. The sensing mechanism for this SiC sensor is based upon a shift in resonant frequency, as a function of change in glucose levels, which electrically manifests itself as a change in blood permittivity and
conductivity. For in vivo applications the antenna sensor needs to operate inside the body environment, and it has been found that the best operational location of this biocompatible SiC sensor is within fatty tissue in close proximity to blood vessels. To test glucose levels, measurements using synthetic body fluid (SBF), which is electrically equivalent to blood plasma, were performed. Changes in sensor performance to varying glucose levels were measured and a shift in resonant frequency to lower values observed with increasing glucose level. In vitro sensor performance demonstrated that the sensor showed a dose dependent response to glucose concentration from 120 mg/dl to 530 mg/dl. A shift of 40 MHz was observed corresponding to a 97 kHz shift per 1 mg/dl change in blood glucose. Similarly the blood glucose levels were measured in pig blood using the same SiC based antenna sensor. The dependence of glucose concentration on resonance frequency observed with pig blood followed the same trend as the bloodviii
mimicking experiment discussed earlier. The sensor performance was linear with the frequency shift being a direct function of glucose concentration.
An in vivo experiment for foreign body response to subcutaneously-implanted antenna has been conducted using a pig/swine animal model. Tissue histology analysis showed that all-SiC antenna and poly ethylene glycol (PEG) coated Ti/Au antenna did not have any inflammatory immune response for 30 days. However, some inflammatory signs were found on bare Ti/Au antenna. The histological tissue analysis on a-SiC coated and single crystal 3C-SiC samples did not show any significant inflammatory response.

तेलंगाना के भाजपा विधायक राजा सिंह ने भंसिया की हिंसा को धार्मिक बताया है और मुस्लिम संगठनों पर निशाना साधते हुए यह कहा है कि ओवैसी के इशारे पर इस घटना को अंजाम दिया गया है।
मामला तेलंगाना से जुड़ा हुआ है जहां पर भाजपा के एकमात्र विधायक ने एक सनसनीखेज जानकारी प्रस्तुत की है, राजा सिंह ने यह जानकारी दी है की तेलंगाना के निर्मल जिले के अंतर्गत आने वाले स्थान भंसिया में कुछ हिन्दू घरों में लूटपाट के बाद घरों और वाहनों को आग लगा दी है, यहाँ लोगों के साथ भीषण शारीरिक हिंसा को भी अंजाम दिया गया है।
भुक्तभोगी लोगों के अनुसार दंगाइयों ने हमारे घरों में जबरन घुस कर तोड़फोड़ की और हमारी घरों की महिलाओं के साथ बदसलूकी की गई, हमारी संपत्तियों को पूछताछ करके आग के हवाले किया गया, स्थानीय लोगों ने बताया कि ये वारदात दरअसल इज्तेमा में आये हुए बाहरी लोगों द्वारा स्थानीय लोगों की शह पर किया गयी। उन्होंने बिना किसी वजह के हमारे घरों में घुसकर तोड़फोड़ की और विरोध करने पर मारपीट भी की।
लोगों के अनुसार चूंकि बाहरी लोगों को कुछ समय के लिए ही यहाँ आना था और कार्यक्रम के बाद उन्हें बाहर चला जाना था इस लिए जानबूझकर उनके द्वारा हिंसा को अंजाम दिलाया गया ताकि स्थानीय लोगों पर उंगली न उठा सके।
इस स्थानीय हिंसा कराने के लिए भाजपा नेता पी मुरलीधर राव ने एआईएमआईएम (ऐमीम) और टीआरएस (ट्र्स) के द्वारा कराया गया सँयुक्त कार्यक्रम बताया और तेलंगाना के एकमात्र विधायक राजा सिंह ने इसे साफ-साफ ओवैसी की पार्टी द्वारा मुसलमानों को भड़का कर इस वारदात को कराने वाला काम बताया है, इसी फेरहिस्त में में निजामाबाद से भाजपा सांसद अरविंद धरमपुरी ने कहा कि ये काम ओवैसी की पार्टी का ही है।
मामले पर अपनी उपस्थिति दर्ज कराने के लिए विधायक राजा सिंह ने मौके पर पहुँच कर पीड़ितों से मिलना चाहा लेकिन प्रशासन ने उन्हें वहां जाने से रोक दिया और राजा सिंह के अनुसार उन्हें अपने घर मे ही कैद कर लिया है ताकि वो पीड़ितों का हाल दुनिया के सामने न रख सके।

# Sum of five odd numbers is 30 how it is possible can you explain (hint- you can repeat the numbers)
1
2014-09-25T15:46:23+05:30
All the odd are always exist in the form 2x + 1 , where x = 0,1,2,3,........
so ,let the five odd numbers are 2n+1, 2m+1, 2p+1, 2q+1, and 2r +1, ,where
m, n, p, q, and r are belongs to all natural numbers, or m,n,p,q,r= 0,1,2,3,4.....N
A/Q,
(2n+1) +(2m+1)+(2p+1) + (2q+1) + (2r+1) = 30
or, 2(m+n+p+q+r) + 5 = 30
or, 2(m+n+p+q+r) = 25
or, m+n+p+q+r = 25/2 = 12.5
Here m,n,p,q and r are whole number ,whose sum will always be a whole number,But here it's a fraction.Therefore sum of five odd numbers never will be 30.
It's not possible.

Review of the Methodology Proposed by the Food Safety and Inspection Service for Risk-Based Surveillance of In-Commerce Activities: A Letter Report (2009)Board on Agriculture and Natural Resources
Each report is produced by a committee of experts selected by the Academy to address a particular statement of task and is subject to a rigorous, independent peer review; while the reports represent views of the committee, they also are endorsed by the Academy. Learn more on our expert consensus reports.
The Food Safety and Inspection Service of the U.S. Department of Agriculture is the agency responsible for enforcing federal regulatory statutes applicable to meat, poultry, and egg products. The goal of the regulations is to ensure that the products are wholesome and safe for human consumption. This letter report, produced at the request of the Food Safety and Inspection Service, reviews new methods the agency has proposed to organize its inspection of businesses and their facilities. The report concludes that a risk-based approach for surveillance activities is an appropriate goal and commends the Food Safety Inspection Service for its efforts to develop a systematic approach to surveillance of businesses. The report offers several recommendations for the agency to consider for improving proposed methods.
- It was difficult for the committee to evaluate fully the concept and use of the inherent hazard risk consideration because of insufficient description and lack of clear direction for its use in categorization of facilities into risk groups.
- Surveillance by other authorities may be the primary risk consideration as a selection criterion for surveillance prioritization.
- The 13 business types identified by FSIS adequately cover the array of in-commerce facilities that handle meat, poultry, and egg products.
- The committee found that the consumer susceptibility risk consideration is not equally applicable to all institutions. This limits the value of this risk consideration in prioritizing surveillance frequency for all types of institutions, some of which serve less susceptible populations.
- The committee agrees with most of the food defense vulnerability rankings, but it believes rendering facilities could also qualify for the high risk category.

Ankle instability is a chronic condition characterized by a recurrent slipping of the outer side of the ankle. It usually results from repeated ankle sprains. It is generally noticed during movement of the ankle joint but can also occur during standing as well.
Repetitive injury of the ankle ligaments on the same side is the most common cause of ankle instability. Inadequate healing of the sprained ligament or incomplete rehabilitation of the affected ligament can result in instability of the ankle. Recurrent injury of the ligaments further weakens them and aggravates the instability which predisposes to the development of additional ankle problems.
Pain is the most common symptom and is associated with swelling and tenderness of the ankle. There may be a persistent discomfort and instability in the affected ankle joint. The ankle is unstable and may turn repeatedly while walking on uneven surfaces or during a sporting activity.
A complete medical history, including a history of any previous ankle injuries, and a physical examination is essential for an accurate diagnosis of the condition. An X-ray may be ordered to confirm the diagnosis. Other imaging tests may also be used to evaluate the injury.
The management of ankle instability depends on the findings of physical examination and the activity level of the patient.
Conservative treatment includes physical therapy for improving the strength, balance and range of motion of the joint, bracing to support the affected ankle and prevent further sprain, and non-steroidal anti- inflammatory (NASAIDs) to reduce the pain and inflammation.
Surgery is recommended in patients with a high degree of instability and in those who have failed to respond to non-surgical treatments. Commonly used surgical procedures involve repair or reconstruction of the damaged ligament.

You have been thinking of getting into UI/UX design. Your research on what it entails has you doing tons of research. It is a commendable move because it allows you to prepare yourself. Without a doubt, it is an exciting path with possibilities for career growth. If you are in this position, you are in the right place.
Our article will share 7 skills every effective UX/UI designer must-have. Let’s dive into a more in-depth exploration of the topic.
UX VS UI, understanding the difference
Some people use UX and UI interchangeably. Yet, there is a distinct difference between the two. The User Experience (UX) refers to how a customer interacts and experiences a product or service.
Take a website, for example. What is the experience for the end-user when they visit the site? Is it user-friendly and easy to navigate? Do the pages load quickly and is the information relevant. All this will determine the experience the user has when interacting with the brand on that specific platform.
UI, on the other hand, are the specific factors that lead to a pleasant UX. Think about it as what happens in the background. For the website, we would look at typography, color, functionality, and even visual elements.
Even with the differences, some of the roles may overlap. So, both UX and UI designers must possess specific skills.

One of the things you will have in your coursework when you sign up for expert training courses is research skills. Both fields require both qualitative and quantitative data to guide their processes.
It is the best way to understand the market and audience needs. Planning, research skills, and analysis will be a part of your daily activities.
2. Ability to visualize
Both UX and UI designers should have the ability to visualize. Creating scenarios that are translatable into the end product is essential. Things like layout, color, icons, and typography start with visual conceptualization.
3. Wireframing and prototyping skills
A wireframe is a blueprint. It gives you an idea of how the final product will work.It has nothing to do with the final look. You must have a good idea of what elements or components you want.
A prototype is all about ensuring functionality before constructing the final product. Let us take the example of coming up with a web page. You need to check things like navigation and site functionality. The designers use mockups for such purposes.
Both processes require the designers to make quick decisions. You decide what to add, omit and how to position the different elements. All these go towards ensuring an excellent experience for end-users.
4. Writing skills
Writing skills are especially critical for UX designers. You should be able to translate and communicate the client’s needs well in the final messaging. Remember, the end-user has no use for coding language. They may not even be aware of what it entails. However, concise copy that shows product attributes and functionality is vital to them.
5. Coding and development skills
It is important, though not an absolute necessity, to have some coding knowledge. Think about your long-term career path. Learn basic coding languages like CSS and HTML. It frees you from depending on other people for tasks you could complete with minor coding knowledge. It also helps with communicating with the software engineers.
You will need to learn how to use different design tools. Such include Sketch, Axure, Webflow, Craft, and Adobe. Every designer has their preference, and you will find what works for you as your career picks.
6. Persuasion and business skills
Design is one aspect but getting the end-user to use the product is the next? The UX and UI designers should have excellent persuasion skills.
The modern world requires designers to have a good understanding of the business environment. Strategy meetings, presentations, and even financial management are critical skills to have.
7. Soft or interpersonal skills
Soft skills are an innate part of your human nature. Such include situational awareness and emotional intelligence.
- Collaboration and teamwork
There is a lot of work that goes into UX and UI designs. Design, coding, marketing, and project management are some of them. Teamwork and collaboration will ensure project success. You must learn to communicate clearly.
Listening to others and accepting input is also important. Giving and accepting criticism will also make the collaboration process better.
Empathy allows the UX and UI designers to view the processes from the end-users perspective. The designers can only provide a solution if they understand the problem.
- Continuous learning and curiosity
Designers have a thirst for knowledge and the desire to create constantly. The right product could always become better. One solution is not enough; end users need more options. It could explain why the career path is so exciting.
- Critical thinking
If the brain of a critical thinker were a street, it would be a very busy one. Concepts are always flying around. Analysis, synthesis, observations, and reasoning lead to action. You cannot sell an assumption or idea to a critical thinker without them questioning it. You must also have excellent foresight and a good understanding of your mental processes.
Flexibility requires you to not exist only within the boundaries you have set for yourself. It requires you to embrace or at least accept feedback. It is about recognizing you could be wrong and could use some help. You should also be able to adapt to situations when the need arises.
We have looked at 7 skills every effective UX/UI designer must-have. Both work at providing solutions to identified customer needs. There is a lot of personal development before you fully realize your potential as a designer.
Soft skills are essential in these careers. Communication, flexibility, empathy, and curiosity are vital. Creativity and a constant search for knowledge and solutions are critical.
The industry is always evolving. With technology comes new ways to do things. Without a doubt, you will enjoy your career.

Videocasts: Randomness & Fossil Dating
The BioLogos mission is to be a leading voice reconciling the realms of science and faith, so it’s essential that we provide resources that reach people of all ages and backgrounds in the conversation. Our latest videocast project, now headed by student intern Joy Walters, does just that. Seeking to engage her peers at the university level (and in the church in general), she explores the difficult questions that come up when thinking through evolution in regard to Christian faith.
Speaking on issues she’s personally grappled with, Joy clarifies the scientific ideas and evidence for evolution, while addressing the seeming problems and contradictions it poses to God’s Word. The videocast utilizes both audio and visual components (pictures, videos, and animations) to take viewers on a journey as they explore specific questions such as, “Is evolution a random process?” and “What are the limits of evolutionary theory?” What’s more, these videos are specifically designed so that someone can understand the material being presented without prior knowledge of the subject. The first video in the series (Randomness and Evolution: Is There Room for God?) tackled the common misconception that evolution is a random process, while explaining why this scientific theory does not discount God’s sovereign guidance of creation. This month’s addition—Hominids Lived Millions of Years Ago, but How Can We Tell?—investigates the process of fossil dating, highlights a couple of field cases where fossils of ancient human ancestors (called hominids) were clearly dated, and explores some theological questions that human evolution raises, if true.

जैसा कि, आप इस आंदोलन के नाम से ही अंदाजा लगा चुके होंगे कि, ये आंदोलन किसी चीज से चिपकने के विषय पर आधारित है, आप सही भी हैं। जिस तरह कोई भी आंदोलन शुरूआत में महज एक विरोध की आवाज होती है वैसे ही ये भी एक कंठ से निकली हुई वाणी मात्र ही था, लेकिन समय ने इसे वो शक्ति दी जिसने इसे एक आंदोलन का रूप दे दिया।
ये बात आजादी के कई वर्षों पूर्व सन १९२७ की है, देश में पहली बार वन अधिनियम १९२७ को लागू किया गया था। इस अधिनियम के कई कानून ऐसे थें जो कि, वनों में रहने वाले आदिवासी जनजातियों आदि के खिलाफ थें। यानी की इन नियमों का सीधा असर उनके दैनिक जीवन पर पड़ने वाला था। चूकिं अधिनियम लागू कर दिया गया था तो इसका विरोध होना भी लाजमी थी। हुआ भी वैसा ही, उस वक्त के टिहरी जिले में जो अब उत्तराखंड के जंगलों में रहने वाले स्थानीय लोगों ने इसका विरोध किया। सन १९३० में टिहरी में एक बड़े ही भव्य रैली का आयोजन किया गया और वन अधिनियम के कड़े नियमों का विरोध किया गया।
वन अधिनियम के खिलाफ जंगलों में रहने वाले और पर्यावरण से प्रेम करने वालों के सीने में एक आग सुलग चुकी थी। उस वक्त महात्मा गांधी की एक शिष्या सरला बेन भी सन १९६१ में इस विरोध को एक अभियान का रूप दिया और देश भर के लोगों को इस अभियान से जोड़ने का फैसला किया। ३० मई १९६८ तक देश भर के कई आदिवासी समूह और पर्यावरण के रक्षक इस मुहिम से जुड़ गयें और देश भर में कई जगहों पर अलग अलग आंदोलन होने लगें। तब तक ये मुहिम छोटे छोटे मशालों की तरह अलग अलग जगहों पर जल रही थी। इसका असली ज्वाला बनना अभी बाकी थी।
देश भर के उन सभी हिस्सों में जहां कहीं भी जंगल और वन थें वहां तलक इस अधिनियम के विरोध की बात पहुंच चुकी थी। लेकिन उस वक्त तक भी सब कुछ बेहद ही शांत था। लेकिन सन १९७४ में वन विभाग ने जोशीमठ के रैणी गांव में स्थित ६८० हेक्टेयर जंगल को एक ठेकेदार के हाथों नीलाम कर दिया। इस नीलामी का मुख्य उद्देश्य जंगल को काटकर मैदान में बदलना था। इसके लिए रैणी गांव के कुल २४५९ पेड़ों को चिन्हीत किया गया था। जंगल के पेड़ों पर निशान लगाये जा चुके थें।
वनों में रहने वाले भी विभाग की मंशा को समझ चुके थें। वो इस बात से वाकिफ हो गये थें कि, जिन पेड़ो पर निशान लगाये जा चुके हैं उन्हें जल्द ही काट दिया जायेगा। वो समय भी आया जब लोगों को एकजुट होना था, २३ मार्च सन १९७४ को गोपेश्वर में पेड़ों के कटान के विरोध में एक विशाल रैली का आयोजन किया गया। इस रैली का नेतृत्व एक महिला जिनका नाम गौरा देवी था, उन्होनें किया।
वन विभाग जगह जगह पर हो रहे रैलियों और विरोध प्रदर्शन से अवगत था। वो जानते थें कि, यदि अचानक से गांव में घुस कर पेड़ों की कटान शुरू की गयी तो उन्हें ग्रामिणों के कोप का भाजन बनना पड़ेगा। क्योंकि ये सर्वविदित है कि, वनों में रहने वालों की असल पूजी वन ही होती है। इसके लिए वन विभाग ने एक सुनियोजि चाल चली। विभाग की तरफ से पेड़ों के कटान के बाद ग्रामिणों को मिलने वाले मुआवजे की तारीख तय की गयी, वो तारीख थी २६ मार्च। विभाग की योजना के अनुसार मुआवजे का वितरण चमोली जिले से किया जाना था। विभाग इस बात से अवगत था कि, इस दिन गांव के सभी पुरूष चमोली में रहंगे और गांव में विरोध करने वाला कोई भी नहीं होगा।
आज का ही दिन था २६ मार्च, वन विभाग ने अपनी योजना के अनुसार स्थानीय समाजिक कार्यकर्ताओं को एक वार्ता के लिए जिले पर बुला लिया था और मजदूरों के समूह को गांव की तरफ रवाना कर दिया था। एकमात्र लक्ष्य था चिन्हीत पेड़ों का कटान। लेकिन इसी बीच मजदूरों के आवागमन की जानकारी एक लड़की को लग गयी। उसने इस बात की सूचना तत्काल गांव के गौरा देवी को दी। गांव से सभी पुरूष चमोली जा चुके थें। पेड़ों की रक्षा करने वाला या फिर विभाग का विरोध करने वाला कोई भी रैणी गांव में नहीं था।
लेकिन गौरा देवी ने हिम्मत नहीं हारी उन्होनें गांव के सभी महिलाओं को एकत्र किया और पेड़ों की रक्षा की जिम्मेदारी अपने उपर ली। उन्होनें महिलाओं को इस बात के लिए राजी किया कि, चाहे कुछ भी हो जाये, हमारी जान ही क्यों न चली जाये लेकिन हम अपने जीते जी पेड़ों को कटने नहीं देंगे। बताया जाता है कि, उस वक्त गांव में महज २१ महिलायें और कुछ बच्चे ही मौजूद थें। उन सभी को लेकर गौरा देवी जंगल की तरफ निकल पड़ी। दूसरी ओर मजदूरों की टोली और विभाग के लोग जंगल पहुंच रहे थें।
इस दौरान गौरादेवी का सामना विभाग के लोगों से हुआ, विभाग के लोगों ने गौरा देवी को समझाने का प्रयास किया। लेकिन वो अपने फैसले पर अडिग रहीं, यहां तक कि, उन्हें डराया और धमकाया गया लेकिन उन्होनें अपना फैसला साफ तौर पर सुना दिया और जंगल के एक पेड़ से जाकर लिपट गयीं। उन्हें देखकर उनके साथ आयी हुई सभी महिलाएं एक एक करके चिन्हीत पेड़ों से ऐसे लिपटी जैसे एक बच्चा अपनी मां से, या मां अपने बच्चे से लिपट जाती है।
विभाग के लोगों को इस विरोध का अंदाजा भी नहीं था। वो तय नहीं कर पा रहे थें कि, आखिर पेड़ों को किस तरह काटा जाये। लाख प्रयास के बावजूद उन महिलाओं ने पेड़ों को नहीं छोड़ा और तब तक चिपकी रहीं जब तक विभाग के लोगों का हौसला नहीं टूट गया। आखिरकार वन विभाग, ठेकेदार और मजदूरों को बैरंग वापस लौटना पड़ा और यहीं से शुरूआत हुई उस महाज्वाला की जिसे दुनिया चिपको आंदोलन के नाम से जानती है।
एक साधारण सी दिखने वाली महिला गौरा देवी के हिम्मत के आगे मर्दों की टोली का बैरंग लौटना इस बात का पुख्ता सबूत था कि, ये विरोध जल्द ही आंदोलन में बदलने वाला था। ये खबर चारो तरफ फैल गयी और अलकनंदा से उठे विरोध के इस बुलंद आवाज ने नैनीताल, अल्मोडा हर जगह घर कर लिया।
बाद में टिहरी से सुंदरलाल बहुगुणा ने इस आंदोलन को हवा दी। उन्होनें जन समूह के साथ सन १९८१ से १९८३ तक ५००० किलोमीटर ट्रांस हिमालय पदयात्रा की। इतना ही नहीं, इस आंदोलन को उन्होनें भव्य रुप दिया और वो आमरण अनशन पर भी बैठें। उनकी मांग थी कि, इस इलाके में वनों की कटाई को रोक दिया जाये। लोगों के तमाम विरोध और आंदोलन के बाद आखिरकार सरकार को घुटने टेकने पड़े और सरकार ने अगले २० वर्षों तक इस इलाके में पेडों की कटाई पर रोक लगा दिया।

We consider wavelet estimation of the time-dependent (evolutionary) power spectrum of a locally stationary time series. Allowing for departures from stationary proves useful for modelling, e.g., transient phenomena, quasi-oscillating behaviour or spectrum modulation. In our work wavelets are used to provide an adaptive local smoothing of a short-time periodogram in the time-freqeuncy plane. For this, in contrast to classical nonparametric (linear) approaches we use nonlinear thresholding of the empirical wavelet coefficients of the evolutionary spectrum. We show how these techniques allow for both adaptively reconstructing the local structure in the time-frequency plane and for denoising the resulting estimates. To this end a threshold choice is derived which is motivated by minimax properties w.r.t. the integrated mean squared error. Our approach is based on a 2-d orthogonal wavelet transform modified by using a cardinal Lagrange interpolation function on the finest scale. As an example, we apply our procedure to a time-varying spectrum motivated from mobile radio propagation.
We derive minimax rates for estimation in anisotropic smoothness classes. This rate is attained by a coordinatewise thresholded wavelet estimator based on a tensor product basis with separate scale parameter for every dimension. It is shown that this basis is superior to its one-scale multiresolution analog, if different degrees of smoothness in different directions are present.; As an important application we introduce a new adaptive wavelet estimator of the time-dependent spectrum of a locally stationary time series. Using this model which was resently developed by Dahlhaus, we show that the resulting estimator attains nearly the rate, which is optimal in Gaussian white noise, simultaneously over a wide range of smoothness classes. Moreover, by our new approach we overcome the difficulty of how to choose the right amount of smoothing, i.e. how to adapt to the appropriate resolution, for reconstructing the local structure of the evolutionary spectrum in the time-frequency plane.
With this article we first like to give a brief review on wavelet thresholding methods in non-Gaussian and non-i.i.d. situations, respectively. Many of these applications are based on Gaussian approximations of the empirical coefficients. For regression and density estimation with independent observations, we establish joint asymptotic normality of the empirical coefficients by means of strong approximations. Then we describe how one can prove asymptotic normality under mixing conditions on the observations by cumulant techniques.; In the second part, we apply these non-linear adaptive shrinking schemes to spectral estimation problems for both a stationary and a non-stationary time series setup. For the latter one, in a model of Dahlhaus on the evolutionary spectrum of a locally stationary time series, we present two different approaches. Moreover, we show that in classes of anisotropic function spaces an appropriately chosen wavelet basis automatically adapts to possibly different degrees of regularity for the different directions. The resulting fully-adaptive spectral estimator attains the rate that is optimal in the idealized Gaussian white noise model up to a logarithmic factor.

प्रधानमंत्री नरेंद्र मोदी की तारीफ पर तारीफ किए जा रहे हैं अरशद वारसी, जानिए क्यों , फिल्म अभिनेता अरशद वारसी ने प्रधानमंत्री नरेंद्र मोदी की सराहना करते हुए उनके स्वच्छता अभियान कार्यक्रम की जमकर तारीफ की। अरशद वारसी अभी हाल ही में तब चर्चा में आये थे जब उन्होंने हॉलीवुड फिल्म पायरेट्स ऑफ़ कैरेबियन में जैक स्पेरो बने जानी डेप के लिए हिंदी डब वर्जन में अपनी आवाज दी।
मुंबई में हुए एक कार्यक्रम में उन्होंने कहा कि हमलोग अगर हर रोज़ कचरा अलग अलग कूड़ेदान में डाले तो इससे सफाई के अभियान में और आसानी होगी। इतना मैं जरुर कहूंगा कि मोदी जी की मेहरबानी से काफी सफाई हो गई है। यह दिखाई देता है कि मुंबई अब काफी साफ़ है, जोकि बहुत अच्छी बात है।
उन्होंने कहा कि बस यही बात है कि हमें कूड़ा-कचरा नहीं फैलाना चाहिए। इससे देश को काफी फायदा होगा। हमलोग हमारे घर में वह सब नहीं करते जो कि देश में करते हैं । घर में हम लोग कोई भी चीज यहां-वहां नहीं फेंकते लेकिन गाड़ी से चलते वक्त पता नहीं क्यों बाहर फेंक देते हैं। देश को अगर हमलोग घर जैसा समझेंगे तो दिमागी रूप से ठीक हो जायेंगे।

Top Ten Proofs That Bigfoot Is Fake
Why are the cameras so bad? - RoseWeasley
Why can't we get a clear shot of him? Is that too much to ask for? Apperantely so. Instead of getting a clear view, we get blurry pictures two miles away from the beast. - Puga
Bigfoot is still real thou.
So bigfoots are apperantely scattered all around North America. Why aren't they all over the place? - Puga
So the Bigfoot apperantely snacks on deer and berries in the wild. So shouldn't the number of deer and berries be going down and down? Yes. Do they? No. - Puga
Basically the reason above. - Puga
The best piece of "proof" of him is fake. there is clearly a zipper on the costume visible. - Puga

उड़िया भाषा में लिखे गये साहित्य को उड़िया साहित्य कहा जाता है।
उड़िया साहित्य का आदियुग ११वीं शताब्दी से लेकर १६वीं शताब्दी के मध्य तक माना जाता है। इसे इतिवृत्त युग या सारलादास युग भी कहा जाता है। परन्तु इसके पूर्व के 'बौद्धगान ओ दोहा' प्रचलित थे जिन्हें उड़िया साहित्य का प्रारम्भिक रूप माना जाता है। इस युग में धार्मिक तथा तन्त्र साहित्य मिलते हैं। कालिका तन्त्र के चार में से एक स्वरूप ओड्डियान या ओडियाण का भी इसमें उल्लेख किया जा सकता है। सप्तांगयोगधारणम् नाम से एक पुस्तक भी है जिसके बारे में कहा जाता है कि यह गोरखनाथ द्वारा रचित है। इसमें सात वारों की स्वरसाधना है। मादलापांजि नामक पुस्तक पुरी के जगन्नाथ मंदिर में रखी है जिसमें उड़ीसा के राजवंशों तथा मंदिर के नियोगों का इतिहास है। जिस प्रकार सप्तांगयोगधारणम् के गोरखनाथ द्वारा लिखे जाने की किंवदन्ती है उसी प्रकार एक किंवदन्ती है कि गंगवंश के प्रथम राजा चोडगंगदेव ने १०४२ में मादलापांजि का लेखन शुरू किया था। परन्तु कई अन्य विद्वान मानते हैं कि १६वीं शताब्दी में रामचन्द्रदेव के शासनकाल में इसे लिखवाया गया था। १३वीं-१४वीं शताब्दी की एक पुस्तक रुद्रसुधानिधि भी आंशिक रूप से उपलब्ध है। नारायणानंद अवधूत नामक एक योगी ने इसे लिखा था। यह एक शैव ग्रंथ है जिसमें एक योगभ्रष्ट योगी के जीवन पर लिखा गया है। इसकी शैली पर मतभेद है। कुछ इसे वृत्तगन्धि गद्य में लिखा मानते हैं तथा कुछ दण्डिवृत्त में। उसके बाद हास्य रस में लिखा वत्सादास की पुस्तक कलशा चौतिशा है।
उसके बाद सारलादास युग का प्रारम्भ होता है जो सही अर्थों में उड़िया साहित्य के आदि काल के प्रतिनिधि लेखक हैं। वह अपने अज्ञानी और शूद्रमुनि कहते थे। उनका वास्तविक नाम था सिद्धेश्वर परिडा (खण्डायन)। उन्होंने कवि होने के बाद स्वयं को सारलादास कहना प्रारम्भ किया क्योंकि वे कटक जिले के झंकडवासिनी देवी चण्डी सारला की कृपा से कवि हुए थे। चौदहवीं-पन्द्रहवीं शताब्द के ही उनके समसामयिक कवि थे कपिलेन्द्रदेव। उनकी तीन प्रमुख कृतियां हैं - विलंका रामायण, महाभारत तथा चण्डीपुराण।
इस युग की अन्य पुस्तकों में अर्जुनदास का काव्य ग्रंथ रामविभा, चैतन्यदास की विष्णुगर्भपुराण तथा निर्गुणमाहात्म्य प्रमुख हैं। चैतन्यदास अलखपंथी निर्गुनिया सम्प्रदाय के संत थे।
१६वीं शताब्दी के मध्य से १९वीं शताब्दी के मध्य तक उड़िया साहित्य का मध्ययुग रहा। इस मध्य युग का प्रथम भाग १८वीं शताब्दी तक चला जिसे पूर्वमध्ययुग कहा जाता है। इस काल को भक्तियुग या पंचसखायुग भी कहा गया है। उसके बाद के मध्ययुग को उत्तरमध्ययुग कहा गया। इसे रीतिकाल या उपेन्द्र-भंजयुग के नाम से भी जाना जाता है।
पूर्वमध्ययुग ज्ञानमिश्रा तथा योगप्रधान भक्तियुग है। पुरी जगन्नाथ को ही कृष्ण और उपास्यदेव माना गया। इसके पूर्व के शून्यवाद का शून्य भी जगन्नाथ जी को ही माना गया। चैतन्य महाप्रभु बंगाल से यहां आये थे तब उस समय के वर्गीय वैष्णव उन्हें छोड़कर भाग गये थे। पांच लोगों - बलरामदास, जगन्नाथदास, यशोवन्तदास, अनन्तदास तथा अच्युतानन्ददास ने उनसे साख्य स्थापित किया जिसके कारण ये पंचसखा के नाम से प्रसिद्ध हुए। इन्होंने उड़िया में अनेक ग्रंथ लिखे जिसके कारण उड़ीया साहित्य के इस काल को पंचसखा या पंचवैष्णव युग भी कहते हैं।
सोलहवीं शताब्दी के पूर्वार्ध में दिवाकरदास जैसे जीवनी लेखक और कवि हुए। सत्रहवीं शताब्दी में ईश्वर दास ने चैतन्य भागवत लिखा। सालवाग नामक मुसलमान भक्त कवि ने भी काव्य रचे थे। धार्मिक साहित्य इस काल की विशेषता है परन्तु लौकिक काव्य का प्रारम्भ भी इसी काल में हुआ जिसमें प्रतापराय रचित शशिसेणा का उल्लेख किया जा सकता है।
उसके बाद रीतिकाल आया जिसमें पौराणिक तथा लौकिक दोनों तरह के साहित्य की रचनाएं हुईं। नायिकाओं के वर्णन से यह भरपूर है। उपेन्द्रभंज (१६८५-१७२५) ने श्रृंगार को एक नयी ऊंचाई दी जिसके कारण इसे उपेन्द्रभंज युग भी कहा जाता है। कहीं-कहीं उनका श्रृंगार सीमाओं का उल्लंघन कर अश्लील भी हो गया। उपेन्द्रभंज के पितामह घुमसर के राजा धनंजयभंज (१६३७-१७०१) ने भी ऐसा साहित्य रचे थे जिसमें रघुनाथविलास-काव्य, त्रिपुरसुन्दरी, मदनमंजरी और अन्य लौकिक काव्य रचे थे।
दीनकृष्णदास द्वितीय मुकुन्ददेव (१६५१-१६६८) तथा दिव्यसिंहदेव (१६८६-१७०३) ने भी अनेक महत्वपूर्ण ग्रंथ लिखे थे जिनका काव्य उच्चकोटि का माना जाता है। वृंदावनी दासी ने कृष्ण भक्ति पर पूर्णतम चन्द्रोदय नामक रचना की।
बाहर से आये लोगों में भूपति पंडित नामक एक सारस्वत ब्राह्मण का उल्लेख किया जा सकता है जिन्होंने उड़िया सीखी और प्रेम-पंचामृत नामक ग्रंथ लिखा जिसमें कृष्णलीला है।
लोकनाथ विद्यालंकार ने अनेक ग्रंथ लिखे जिनमें रीतिकालीन काव्य ही अधिक हैं। ब्रजनाथ बडजेना और भीम भोई के नाम भी उल्लेखनीय हैं। भीम भोई उड़ीसा के प्रख्यात लोगों में रहे जो जन्म से अंधे, निरक्षर कन्ध आदिवासी थे परन्तु उनके द्वारा रचित स्तुतिचिंतामणि में अद्भुत ब्रह्मनिरुपण मिलता है। वे कुम्भिपाटिआ या महिमा धर्म के अनुयायी थे।
१९वीं शताब्दी के मध्य से उड़िया साहित्य के आधुनिक युग का प्रारम्भ हुआ। मुगलकाल और मरहट्टा काल की समाप्ति के बाद अंग्रेजी शासन आया जिसका प्रभाव उड़िया साहित्य पर भी पड़ा। इस काल के एक प्रमुख कवि हैं राधानाथ राय, जो एक स्कूल इंस्पेक्टर थे, और उनपर अंग्रेजी साहित्य का प्रभाव था, जो उनके काव्य में आया। उनके महापात्र नामक काव्य में जॉन मिल्टन का प्रभाव देखा जा सकता है। इस काल में गद्य और अनुवाद लेखन भी काफी हुए।
इसी राधानाथ युग में एक विवाद खड़ा हो गया कि उड़िया स्वतंत्र भाषा है या नहीं। बंगाल के विद्वान राजेन्द्रलाल मित्र आदि आन्दोलन चला रहे थे कि उड़िया एस स्वतंत्र भाषा नहीं है। इसके विरोध में फकीरमोहन सेनापाति आदि ने प्रति-आन्दोलन चलाया और कहा कि यह एक स्वतंत्र भाषा है। फकीरमोहन ने उत्कृष्ठ गद्य उपन्यास लिखकर उसकी भाषा और शैली को प्रतिष्ठित किया। उन्होंने पद्य भी रचे और रामायण, महाभारत तथा छान्दोग्योपनिषद् का उड़िया में पद्यानुवाद भी किया।
एक अन्य स्कूल इंस्पेक्टर थे मधुसूदन राय। वे इस काल के प्रमुख उड़िया कवियों में एक हैं। वे एक भक्त कवि थे।
इस काल में उड़िया नाटकों का उद्भव हुआ। रमाशंकर राय उस काल के एक प्रमुख नाटककार थे।
प्रकृति के कवि गंगाधर मेदेर, पल्लीकवि नन्दकिशोरवल, प्राबंधिक और सम्पादक विश्वनात कर, व्यंग्यकार गोपालचन्द प्रहराज भी प्रमुख उड़िया साहित्यकारों में गिने जाते हैं।
उसके बाद उड़िया साहित्य का सत्यवादी युग प्रारम्भ हुआ। स्वतंत्रता आन्दोलन, महात्मा गांधी और कांग्रेस राजनीति का प्रभाव उड़िया साहित्य पर पड़ा। सत्यवादी युग के प्रवर्तक हैं गोपबन्धु दास। अनेक साहित्यकारों का मानना था कि पूर्व के अनेक काव्यों ने उड़िया इतिहास और उसके जातीय चरित्र को कलंकित किया है। इसलिए इस युग के रचनाकारों ने इतिहास और जातीय सत्य को प्रतिष्ठित करने का काम किया जिसके कारण इस युग का नाम सत्यवादी युग पड़ा। इस युग के अन्य प्रमुख साहित्यकारों में थे नीलकंठ दास, गोदावरीश मित्र, पद्मचरण पट्टनायक, हास्यरसिक लक्ष्मीकान्त महापात्र और नारी कवि कुन्तला कुमारी।
उसके बाद रोमांटिक युग आया। मायाधर मान सिंह इस युग के प्रधान कवि हैं।
उसके बाद पांच रचनाकारों - कालिन्दीचरण पाणिग्रही, वैकुण्ठनाथ पट्टनायक, हरिहर महापात्र, शरच्चन्द्र मुखर्जी तथा अन्नदाशंकर राय ने सबुज युग का प्रारम्भ किया। वाद में ये बिखर गये और अलग-अलग हो गये।
उड़िया साहित्य का प्रगति युग उसके बाद आया। इस युग के प्रमुख रचनाकार हैं - सच्चिदानन्द राउत राय, गोपीनाथ मोहन्ती, कान्दुचरण मोहन्ती, नित्यानन्द महापात्र, राधामोहन गडनायक, क्षुद्र गालिक, और गोदावरीश महापात्र।

Shower Massager: A Luxurious Shower Experience
Last Updated On: 13 January 2021
Showering is an everyday occurrence for most of us. A lot of us don’t even spare a second thought about it. But over the years technology has improved a lot and has spread in all branches of life. This technology has improved our showering experience a lot because now we have shower massager.
Shower massager is a device made for making your shower experience more luxurious. There are a lot of different types of shower massagers and their use is also different. In this article, we will talk about different types of shower massagers and their benefits and disadvantages.
History of Hygiene:
Ancient humans were not very into cleanliness. Bathing every day was a religious taboo because it was considered vain. Hence so many people were infected by the plague. Now we know that being clean is essential to living a good life. Bacteria and germs can spread easily in a dirty environment. So even if you don’t shower every day it is important to shower at least two or three times a week.
In the past showers had a simple design and served only one purpose. But now showers have a lot of features that serve different purposes. Showers now have steam, LEDs, sprinkles and other options. Shower massager is one of these options. Shower massager is one of the settings on a modern shower head. There are a lot of different types of massagers to choose from. So you should choose what is best for you.
There are a lot of advantages of using a shower massager.
Advantages of a shower massager:
1. Regular shower heads are good for daily use but on special occasions when you need a little extra pampering shower massagers are the best.
2. If you have a nine to five job or if you are a student you don’t have a lot of time to waste on showering.
3. Regular shower heads cannot reach the hard to reach parts of your body. So if you want a cleaner, better shower experience you should invest in a shower massager.
4. A modern shower head can range from a single mode to multiple modes. Depending on the brand and the number of modes prices can vary. There is a general mode which is a shower setting. You can use this mode for a quick shower. There are options for both hot and cold water.
5. There enjoy some of them are also a lot of unique modes. There is a mode called mist which is basically just steam. If you have a cold or any kind of skin congestion a steam shower will work greatly. There is also power spray, mixed spray, rain shower and many more modes. Depending on the shower you buy you can either or all of them.
6. To heighten your shower experience it is wise to invest in a good shower massager. Some shower heads can not only spray water in one mode but also can spray water on two three modes simultaneously. That is what one would call a smart shower.
7. The main difference between a regular shower head and a shower massager is that a shower massager is more powerful therefore in can ensures more relaxation and can guarantee a much better shower experience. So if you are renovating your bathroom or have some extra money we highly recommend a shower massager. It can change your whole shower experience.
8. A shower massager will not only be useful to you but also to the other members of your family. There are also modes for your pets or your kids.
9. If you have any back or shoulder pain a shower massage will be of great use to you. The pressure and temperature of the water will relax your muscles.
10. A shower massager is also great for having a spa day at home. But there are also many modes that can be used daily. A shower massager has a lot of modes and a lot of different uses. So based on your budget and personal preference choose a shower massager which is the best suitable for you.
Since we all shower almost every day a good shower massager can be a good investment. But be careful since there are a lot of low quality products in the market.
There is no object on this planet without mixed blessings. A shower massager also has both advantages and disadvantages.
ALSO READ: BENEFITS OF COLD SHOWER
Disadvantages of a shower massager:
1. The main concern about the shower massager is that it wastes a lot of water. No matter what kind of showers you use there is always a chance of some water getting wasted.
2. Some shower heads are difficult to install. So that might be hard for some people.
3. A lot of modern shower heads are on the pricier side. So not everybody can afford them.
4. Since shower massagers are so relaxing people tend to spend more time in the shower. Which can lead to high electricity bills.
5. If you have arthritis or any similar diseases showering for a long period of time can be bad for your health.
6. Our body has a natural moisture barrier which protects us from heat, dirt and bacteria. If we shower for too long our body gets stripped from its natural oils which can lead to our skin feeling irritated, dull even many skin problems. So we must remember to shower quickly.
7. Experts say that a ten minute shower every day is more than enough. We must not exceed this time limit. But with a shower massager maintaining this time frame can be quite difficult since it is so relaxing. Also if you live in a rental home then installing a new shower head might be quite difficult for you since a lot of rental houses have strict policies.
If you can work around these few complications then you can completely enjoy the luxuries of a shower massager.
Should you buy a shower massager?
Since a lot of people are not really familiar with a shower massager we will discuss both advantages and disadvantages of a shower massager then decide if it is worth the hype.
1.Price: A good quality shower massager can be expensive but it can last longer than a normal shower. A shower massager has many modes. So, if you want a spa- like experience in your own home you can achieve that with a shower massager. So, it really is worth the money.
2.Energy Saving: A shower massager is notorious for wasting water. But if you are conscious and don’t spend more than 10 minutes in the shower it won’t matter. But if you like to take long showers than a shower massager is not really for you.2.
3.Safe to Use: One of best things about a shower massager is that it has many features. Many shower massages have self- cleaning abilities. With constant water supply bacteria and mold can grow inside a regular shower head. These can contaminate the water, which can cause many skin problems. On the other hand, a shower massager can control your water’s pH and protect your skin. So, if you are suffering from any kind of skin problem a shower massager is the best option for you.
4.Functionality: Most of the shower massagers are very easy to use and install. To install a shower massager all you have to do is remove your old shower head and screw a shower massager to your massager. So, if you are nervous about installing a shower massager, don’t be. It’s really easy. You can install a shower massager yourself.
5.Suitability: Our skin has a natural moisture barrier which protects us from bacteria, heat and dirt. If we shower for a long time our moisture barrier gets destroyed and our skin gets irritated. But there is an easy way to avoid this. Use body lotion after you have showered. This will moisturize your skin.
6.Relaxation: A shower massager is very relaxing to use. If you have any kind shoulder or back pain you will find a shower massager very helpful. The water pressure in a shower massager is very high so when the water hits your body the muscles relax. But if you have any pre-existing skin condition, standing in the shower for a long period of time may aggravate it.
7.Family Friendly: A lot of people think that a shower massager cannot be used by kids. It is not true. A shower massager has a lot of modes which is suitable for children and pets. So, a shower massager can be enjoyed by the whole family.
After reviewing both advantages and disadvantages of a shower massager you have to deciede whether you want one or not. If you want to buy a shower massager do your research beforehand. A good shower massager will be useful to both you and your family.

Large Baler Research and Storage Ideas
by Ronald T. Schuler, Extension Agricultural Engineer
Many alfalfa producers look to harvest their alfalfa as intermediate (about 30 inches × 30 inches × 5 feet) square bales. This is an excellent method for handling dry alfalfa hay especially if it is going to be marketed.
Because the intermediate square bales are denser than small square and large round bales, the recommended storage moisture is two to three percent less than small rectangular bales. Recommended bale moisture levels for storage with minimal losses may be difficult to attain in humid Wisconsin weather conditions. Harvesting large square bales above 17 percent moisture will require a preservative for good bale storage or plastic wrap may be used to maintain forage quality.
Preservative Research Results (Wisconsin)
In 1997 and 1998, Shinners studied preservatives and ventilation holes for intermediate square bales at moistures from 14 to 28 percent. The preservatives were propionic acid and a bacterial inoculent. Ventilation holes of three and five inches in diameter were two treatments evaluated for reducing dry matter loss and maintaining forage quality. Four different trials or cuttings were evaluated. Following are his findings:
- Bales treated with propionic acid remain higher moisture during storage,
- Propionic acid produced less heating at the higher moisture content,
- Ventilation holes in the bales did not produce less heating.
- None of the methods reduced dry matter loss, and
- Dry matter loss was less than 4% when baling at moistures below 16%.
Bale Wrapping Research Results (Wisconsin)
At the Lancaster Agricultural Research Station, plastic wrapping of intermediate bales was evaluated for bales at 21 to 40% moisture during 1997. Undersander and others studied the effect of time between baling and wrapping and the number of plastic layers. Following are their results:
- Bales (800-1200 lbs) need to have 2 to 3% less moisture at baling than small squares,
- Bales should be wrapped within 24 hours after baling,
- Plastic wrapping bales at 21 to 38% moisture adequately preserved them, and
- Four layers of 1.5 mil plastic (50% overlap, twice over) was adequate.
Bale Silage Storage Using Plastic (Wisconsin)
In a study conducted in the late 1980’s, Straub and others evaluated plastic covers, bags and wrap with round bale silage. The plastic covers were used to protect the bales stacked three high in a triangular formation. Bale bags were designed to enclose one bale each. Also the use of propionic acid was evaluated. They found:
- Bale wrapping produced the most reliable results, and
- A preservative is needed with bale bags and covers.
Limited research results are available on bale tubes and line wrapping. The key to their success will be their ability to seal the bales and prevent any air from getting inside the plastic.
Some preservatives that have been used are anhydrous ammonia, inoculants and buffered propionic acid. Although anhydrous ammonia costs less, handling and safety problems make propionic acid a better preservative. The recommended application rates for large square bales are listed in Table 1, where the propionic acid concentration is 75 to 80 percent. If the acid concentration is less more chemical will need to be added.
If the solution contains other acids such as acetic or citric acid, it will be less effective than a solution containing only propionic acid. Acetic acid is considered to be about one third as effective as propionic acid. Therefore, you would need three times more acetic acid to have the same effect as the recommended rate of propionic acid. For bacterial inoculants, the manufacturer’s recommendations should be followed.
The estimated cost for the acid solution is about $1.20 per pound. The cost of the spraying system including a pump, tank, valve, nozzle and other miscellaneous parts should added to the values in Table 1 but should be less than $1.00 per ton. Costs will be less when the acid is purchased in the off season in large quantities.
The key to selecting the correct application rate will be determining the forage moisture content. An accurate method must be used and good representative samples must be obtained. There can be a large variation in forage moisture in the windrow so sampling will be very important.

रैंप वॉक के दौरान यामी गौतम ने किया कुछ ऐसा, जमकर हो रही तारीफ़ - राम वॉक ऑफ यमी गौतम
रैंप वॉक के दौरान कभी ड्रेस का खिसकना तो कभी मॉडल का गिरना कोई नई बात नहीं है, लेकिन अभिनेत्री यामी गौतम ने रैंप वॉक के दौरान जिस तरह की स्फूर्ति और संतुलन दिखाया है, वाकई कमाल का है। फैशन शो में रैंप वॉक के दौरान अपने लड़खड़ाते कदमों को यामी ने जिस सहजता से संभाला उसके लिए सोशल मीडिया पर उनकी जमकर तारीफ हो रही है।
फिल्म उरीः द सर्जिकल स्ट्राइक की एक्ट्रेस यामी गौतम ने हाल ही में लक्मे फैशन वीक २०१९ में रैंप वॉक किया। पीच कलर की ड्रेस में यामी बेहद खूबसूरत लग रही थीं, उनके लुक ने सबका दिल जीत लिया, लेकिन इसी बीच रैंप वॉक करते हुए यामी का पैर उनकी ड्रेस में फंस गया और उनका बैलेंस बिगड़ गया, हालांकि वो गिरती इससे पहले ही उन्होंने खुद को बड़ी ह सहजता से संभालते हुए वॉक खत्म किया। मुस्कुराते हुए जिस खूबसूरती से यामी ने खुद को शर्मिंदगी से बचाया इस बात के लिए यामी की हर कोई तारीफ कर रहा है।
लक्मे फैशन वीक में यामी डिजाइनर गौरी और नयनिका के लिए रैंप वॉक कर रही थीं।
आपको बता दें कि यामी गौतम फिल्म विकी डोनर से बॉलीवुड में कदम रखा था और फिल्म हिट हुई थी। इसके बाद यामी गौतम ने २०१४ में एक्शन जैक्सन, २०१५ में बदलापुर, २०१६ में सनम रे और २०१७ में काबिल में नजर आईं। हाल ही में रिलीज उनकी फिल्म उरी बॉक्स ऑफिस पर धमाल मचाए हुए हैं। कम ही लोग जानते हैं कि यामी ने हिंदी फिल्मों के अलावा कन्नड़, तेलुगू, पंजाबी, मलयालम और तमिल फिल्मों में भी काम किया है। यामी बनना तो चाहती थी आईएएस ऑफिसर लेकिन किस्मत ने उन्हें अभिनेत्री बना दिया।

सोर के विषय में दु:खद सन्देश: हे तर्शीश के जहाज़ों, दु:ख मनाओ! तुम्हारा बन्दरगाह उजाड़ दिया गया है। (इन जहाज़ो पर जो लोग थे, उन्हें यह समाचार उस समय बताया गया था जब वे कित्तियों के देश से अपने रास्ते जा रहे थे।)
हे समुद्र के निकट रहने वाले लोगों, रुको और शोक मनाओ! हे, सीदोन के सौदागरों शोक मनाओ। सिदोन तेरे सन्देशवाहक समुद्र पार जाया करते थे। उन लोगों ने तुझे धन दौलत से भर दिया।
वे लोग अनाज की तलाश में समुद्रों में यात्रा करते थे। सोर के वे लोग नील नदी के आसपास जो अनाज पैदा होता था, उसे मोल ले लिया करते थे और फिर उस अनाज को दूसरे देशों में बेचा करते थे।
हे सीदोन, तुझे शर्म आनी चाहिए। क्योंकि अब सागर और सागर का किला कहता है: मैं सन्तान रहित हूँ। मुझे प्रसव की वेदना का ज्ञान नहीं है। मैंने किसी बच्चे को जन्म नहीं दिया। मैंने युवती व युवक को पाल कर बड़े नहीं किया।
मिस्र सोर का समाचार सुनेगा और यह समाचार मिस्र को दु:ख देगा।
तेरे जलयान तर्शीश को लौट जाने चाहिए। हे सागरतट वासियों! दु:ख में डूब जाओ।
बीते दिनों में तुमने सोर नगर का रस लिया। यह नगरी शुरु से ही विकसित होती रही। उस नगर के कुछ लोग कहीं दूर बसने को चले गये।
सोर के नगर ने बहुत सारे नेता पैदा किये। वहाँ के व्यापारी राजपुत्रों के समान होते हैं और वे लोग वस्तुएँ खरीदते व बेचते हैं। वे हर कहीं आदर पाते हैं। सो किसने सोर के विरुद्ध योजनाएँ रची हैं।
हाँ, सर्वशक्तिमान यहोवा ने वे योजनाएँ बनायी थी। उसने ही उन्हें महत्त्वपूर्ण न बनाने का निश्चय किया था।
हे तर्शीश के जहाज़ो तुम अपने देश को लौट जाओ। तुम सागर को ऐसे पार करो जैसे वह छोटी सी नदी हो। कोई भी व्यक्ति अब तुम्हें नहीं रोकेगा।
यहोवा ने अपना हाथ सागर के ऊपर फैलाया है और राज्यों को कँपा दिया। यहोवा ने कनान (फिनिसियाँ) के बारे में आदेश दे दिया है कि उसके गढ़ियों को नष्ट कर दिया जाये।
यहोवा कहता है, हे! सीदोन की कुँवारी पुत्री, तुझे नष्ट किया जायेगा। अब तू और अधिक आनन्द न मना पायेगी। किन्तु सोर के निवासी कहते हैं, हमको कित्ती बचायेगा। किन्तु यदि तुम सागर को पार कर कित्तीमजाओ वहाँ भी तुम चैन का स्थान नहीं पाओगे।
अत: सोर के निवासी कहा करते हैं, बाबुल के लोग हम को बचायेंगे! किन्तु तुम बाबुल के लोगों को धरती पर देखो। एक देश के रुप में आज बाबुल का कोई अस्तित्व नहीं है। बाबुल के ऊपर अश्शूर ने चढ़ाई की और उस के चारों ओर बुर्जियाँ बनाई। सैनिकों ने सुन्दर घरों का सब धन लूट लिया। अश्शूर ने बाबुल को जंगली पशुओं का घर बना दिया। उन्होंने बाबुल को खण्डहरों में बदल दिया।
सो तर्शीश के जलयानों तुम विलाप करो। तुम्हारा सुरक्षा स्थान (सोर) नष्ट हो जायेगा।
सत्तर वर्ष तक लोग सोर को भूल जायेंगे। (यह समय, किसी राजा के शासन काल के बराबर समय माना जाता था।) सत्तर वर्ष के बाद, सोर एक वेश्या के समान हो जायेगा। इस गीत में:
हे वेश्या! जिसे पुरुषों ने भुला दिया। तू अपनी वीणा उठा और इस नगर में घूम। तू अपने गीत को अच्छी तरह से बजा। तू अक्सर अपना गीत गाया कर। तभी तुझको लोग फिर से याद करेंगे।
सत्तर वर्ष के बाद, परमेश्वर सोर के विषय में फिर विचार करेगा और वह उसे एक निर्णय देगा। सोर में फिर से व्यापार होने लगेगा। धरती के सभी देशों के लिये सोर एक वेश्या के समान हो जायेगा।
किन्तु सोर जिस धन को कमायेगा, उसको रख नहीं पायेगा। सोर का अपने व्यापार से हुआ लाभ यहोवा के लिये बचाकर रखा जायेगा। सोर उस लाभ को उन लोगों को दे देगा जो यहोवा की सेवा करते हैं। इसलिये यहोवा के सेवक भर पेट खाना खायेंगे और अच्छे कपड़े पहनेंगे।

Purpose:Tumor-stroma ratio (TSR) serves as an independent prognostic factor in colorectal cancer and other solid malignancies. The recent introduction of digital pathology in routine tissue diagnostics holds opportunities for automated TSR analysis. We investigated the potential of computer-aided quantification of intratumoral stroma in rectal cancer whole-slide images. Methods: Histological slides from 129 rectal adenocarcinoma patients were analyzed by two experts who selected a suitable stroma hot-spot and visually assessed TSR. A semi-automatic method based on deep learning was trained to segment all relevant tissue types in rectal cancer histology and subsequently applied to the hot-spots provided by the experts. Patients were assigned to a ‘stroma-high’ or ‘stroma-low’ group by both TSR methods (visual and automated). This allowed for prognostic comparison between the two methods in terms of disease-specific and disease-free survival times. Results: With stroma-low as baseline, automated TSR was found to be prognostic independent of age, gender, pT-stage, lymph node status, tumor grade, and whether adjuvant therapy was given, both for disease-specific survival (hazard ratio = 2.48 (95% confidence interval 1.29–4.78)) and for disease-free survival (hazard ratio = 2.05 (95% confidence interval 1.11–3.78)). Visually assessed TSR did not serve as an independent prognostic factor in multivariate analysis. Conclusions: This work shows that TSR is an independent prognosticator in rectal cancer when assessed automatically in user-provided stroma hot-spots. The deep learning-based technology presented here may be a significant aid to pathologists in routine diagnostics.

If you go for walks around the Cotswold Water Park, you will probably have encountered stacks of logs in areas where the CWP Trust Rangers have been removing trees which have become unwanted for various reasons (cutting out too much light from water courses, or wind damage being two examples). These are known in the conservation trade as ‘habitat piles’ and have been left for a reason; they are not piles of free firewood and don’t need removing to tidy up the site! Dead wood is an important piece in the ecosystem jigsaw.
Habitat piles provide much needed homes and food for a vast array of wildlife. Amphibians, reptiles and small mammals will all find shelter and safety in them, fungi will start to grow on them and invertebrates will be present in increasingly large numbers as the wood decomposes. Invertebrate numbers have declined steeply, partly due to the use of insecticides but also because of the recent trend of ‘over-tidying’ the countryside (often in the name of health and safety); so these stacks of wood assist them to flourish on a local level. They are an important part of the food chain; providing meals for many birds, mammals and other wildlife. Piles of brash and smaller branches are sometimes also left for the same purpose, they may not look neat and tidy but over manicured countryside is not natural and supports much lower levels of wildlife.
The removal of wood from the habitat piles is always annoying and often involves a couple of logs being carried away by someone who is just unaware of their purpose; it is easy to look at them and think ‘what a waste’, without appreciating their importance. However, we have experienced cases of whole stacks being loaded onto vehicles and taken! It’s not even good firewood; as we frequently use willow for these piles, which is well known for spitting sparks in all directions.
Sometimes the rangers leave entire felled trees intact on the ground (mimicking natural tree-falls), to gradually rot down and become an important addition to the ecosystem. Almost unbelievably, we have experienced people with chainsaws cutting these up to take them away in the belief that they are in need of a good home. The assumption should always be to ask the landowner first, as many of these piles can play host to legally protected species. And please do remember that land with public access is not necessarily publicly owned land.
Dead wood, both on the ground and standing, is a natural yet sadly declining part of a healthy landscape; we try our best to encourage and support a great diversity of wildlife in the Cotswold Water Park, a more widespread understanding of what a habitat pile is, and achieves, will hopefully lead to more of them remaining in place for the species that need them.

रिपब्लिक डेस्कः अक्सर लोग बुढ़ापे में मिल रहे पेंशन से बाहर घूमने चले जाते हैं या फिर अपने बचे हुए जीनव को बेहतर जीने में खत्म करते हैं. पर बहुत कम ही लोग होते हैं, जो अपने पेंशन से किसी को शिक्षा की रोशनी प्रदान कर सकें. ऐसी ही एक ७० वर्षिय महिला प्रोफेसर (चित्रलेखा मल्लिक) हैं, जिनका दावा है कि उन्होंने २००२ से पश्चिम बंगाल राज्य के विभिन्न शिक्षण संस्थान को तकरीबन ९७ लाख रुपये दान दिये हैं. प्रोफेसर को प्रति माह पेंशन में ५० हजार रुपये मिलते हैं.
इस मामले में एक मीडिया संस्थान को दिये साक्षात्कार में प्रोफेसर ने कहा कि वह आर्थिक सहायता की आवश्यकता होने पर शोधकर्ताओं की मदद करना चाहती हैं. ९७ लाख रुपये में से मैंने ५० लाख रुपये पिछले साल जादवपुर विश्वविद्यालय के अपने शोध मार्गदर्शक पंडित विधुभूषण भट्टाचार्य की याद में दिया था. वहीं शहर के राजाबाजार इलाके में स्थित विक्टोरिया संस्थान में संस्कृत की पूर्व प्रोफेसर मल्लिक ने कहा कि उन्होंने अपने शोध मार्गदर्शक की पत्नी हेमवती भट्टाचार्य की याद में स्थापित छात्रों के लिए छात्रवृत्ति के मद में छह लाख रुपये दिए थे.
साथ ही उन्होंने बताया कि उन्होंने अपना पहला दान ५०,००० रुपये का किया था, जो उन्होंने २००२ में विक्टोरिया संस्थान में राष्ट्रीय मूल्यांकन एवं प्रत्यायन परिषद के सदस्यों के दौरे से पहले बुनियादी ढांचा विकास के लिए दिया था. उन्होंने अपने माता-पिता के नाम पर हावड़ा में इंडियन रिसर्च इंस्टीट्यूट फॉर इंटीग्रेटेड मेडिसिन के लिए ३१ लाख रुपये की बड़ी राशि दानस्वरूप दी थी.

The City of Whittier has a diverse and colorful history beginning with the Gabrielino Indians who first inhabited the area during the City’s pre-history. Later, Spanish California (1769-1821) would influence the region with the establishment of both missions and large ranchos. It was the Spanish land grant given to retired solider Jose Manuel Nieto in 1784 that would encompass part of present day Whittier. After Mexico gained her independence from Spain, she ruled California (1821-1848) during an era of thriving ranchos. Mexico continued the Spanish practice of granting land to citizens in good standing to encourage settlement in California. This was accomplished by secularizing the old Spanish missions and dividing up the mission lands to establish new ranchos. In doing so, it ended the influence of the California mission system on the region’s inhabitants. One of the recipients of these Mexican land grants was Juan Crispin Perez, who established Rancho Paso de Bartolo in 1835. Perez’s rancho would later form part of the future City of Whittier.

When Mexico’s rule of California ended in 1848, American westward expansion and settlement into California began in earnest due to such influences as the discovery of gold in the west and the U.S. Homestead Act of 1862. The Homestead Act streamlined the process of granting public land to private owners. The earliest grantee of Homestead Act land in present day Whittier was German immigrant Jacob Gerkins, who acquired 160 acres in 1868. Gerkins built a small home on the property that is still partially extant today and forms part of the historic Johnathan Bailey House.

One of Gerkins’ neighbors at the time was Pio Pico, the last Mexican Government appointed Governor of California. Pico purchased Rancho Paso de Bartolo in the early 1850s and re-named it “El Ranchito.” The ranch house is now a State Historic Park in Whittier.
By 1879, Gerkins sold his property to John Thomas, who established a 1,259-acre ranch in present day Whittier. The Thomas Ranch was subsequently sold in 1887 to the Pickering Land and Water Company who subdivided the ranch and sold lots to establish a “Quaker Colony” under the stewardship of Johnathan Bailey, John Painter, Hervey Lindley, Aquila Pickering and T.E. Newlin. Although Whittier was established on Quaker (Friends) principals, the Pickering Land and Water Company often donated land to non-Quaker congregations to develop their churches as well. The Company also reserved 20 acres of land for a future college that would later be named Whittier Academy or Whittier College as it is known today. Since then, schools and churches have been an integral part of the community. It was during this period that the Whittier State School, later re-named the Fred C. Nelles Youth Correctional Facility, was also developed. Whittier pioneer Hervey Lindley facilitated its development in 1891 by the State of California (at an estimated cost of $150,000) as a means of providing jobs and growth for the new community. In 2004, the facility was closed by the State of California.

As the community’s Quaker foundation soon took root, it led to the City of Whittier’s incorporation in 1898 with 585 residents. The City’s name was chosen to honor the 19th Century Quaker poet, John Greenleaf Whittier. With the community’s early growth and prosperity tied to its agriculture (lemons, oranges and walnuts) and oil industries, the successful conveyance of water into the community in 1890 by Simon Murphy’s East Whittier Land and Water Company along with the arrival of the Southern Pacific, Pacific Electric and Santa Fe Railroads all provided critical infrastructure to enable Whittier to thrive into the 20th Century.

As Whittier’s population steadily grew to 14,822 by 1930, so did the diversity of goods and services provided within the City along with the rise of substantial new public and private buildings like the Murphy Memorial Hospital (1921), First National Bank (1923), and the Hoover Hotel (1930). Most of Whittier’s new development during this period still remained concentrated in the greater Uptown area, with residential development becoming increasingly dense around the City’s commercial core.
During the 1920s and 1930s, residential and commercial development was becoming increasingly geared toward accommodating the automobile. This became evident as residential garages replaced barns and streets were widened and paved with parking spaces to accommodate automobile traffic as the use of public rail for transportation waned and eventually ended in Whittier by 1938. This ultimately gave rise to the automotive commercial-retail strip that became the primary expression of the automobile’s impact on the mid-20th Century landscape in the City and resulted in the explosion of development away from the greater Uptown area in favor of Whittier Boulevard and other surrounding street thoroughfares.

Like other communities, Whittier’s growth slowed during the Great Depression (1929-1941). However, the City’s agriculture and oil industries remained active. Although new construction was limited during this period, the federal Works Progress Administration (WPA) provided assistance with funding and jobs for public projects. An example of the WPA’s work in Whittier is readily found in the numerous improvements constructed throughout Penn Park that are still used today.
Although the City’s agriculture and oil industries declined after World War II (1939-1945), Whittier’s growth continued to accelerate as distribution and manufacturing became important industries in the community because of its proximity to Los Angeles, major road networks and a large worker population. New construction also flourished during this period.
Between 1940 and 1960, Whittier’s population more than doubled from 16,115 to 33,663 residents. Vast new tracts of residential homes and apartment buildings were being developed in conjunction with commercial, industrial, medical and institutional uses that were replacing the former agricultural land and oil fields that were once the backbone of Whittier’s economy.
By 1970, the City’s population climbed to 72,863. Several annexations of unincorporated areas into Whittier during the 1950s and 1960s were partially responsible for this large population increase. Whittier was also experiencing the same kind of rapid growth that was occurring throughout Southern California after World War II. This growth was induced in part by an influx of returning soldiers, new families moving into California and rising birth rates. The City was now a firmly established bedroom community with a well-developed infrastructure and the ability to provide its residents with numerous goods and services. However, to maintain the aesthetic appeal of the City and to entice new growth and development into the community, rehabilitation and redevelopment would play a major role in the future of the City as the 1970s dawned in Whittier.

What is Spine Tumour?
A spine tumour is the abnormal growth of uncontrolled tissues or cells in and around the spinal cord. Tumours can either be cancerous (malignant) or non-cancerous (benign). Tumours that begin in the spine are called primary spinal tumours. Tumours that spread to the spine from other parts such as the breast, prostate, lung, and other areas are called secondary spinal tumours.
Types of Spine Tumours
Some of the commonly occurring benign spinal tumours are osteoma, osteoblastoma, haemangioma, and osteochondroma. Most commonly occurring malignant spinal tumours are chondrosarcoma, Ewing’s sarcoma, lymphoma, osteosarcoma, and multiple myeloma.
Symptoms of Spine Tumours
You may experience persistent and chronic back pain, numbness, burning and tingling sensation, loss of sensation in your arms, knees, legs, and ankles, difficulty in balancing, and experience bladder or bowel control problems.
Causes of Spine Tumours
The cause of primary spinal tumours is not known but may occur with genetic defects.
Secondary spinal tumours occur when the cancer cells arise from the kidneys, lungs, breasts, and spread to the spine. The other causes may include:
- Rapid division of cancer cells in the nerves, bones or cartilage of the spine
- Exposure to radiations and chemicals
- Hereditary tumours including neurofibromatosis, a tumour of the spinal nerves
Diagnosis of Spine Tumours
Spine cancer can be diagnosed by neurological examination, which identifies the exact location of the tumour. Other imaging tests ordered may include cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) examination, myelogram, spine computed tomography scan, spine magnetic resonance imaging scan and spine X-ray. In addition to these tests, a bone scan and positron emission tomography (PET) scan are also done. Once the tumour is found, a biopsy is performed to identify the type of tumour and provide necessary treatment.
What is Spinal Decompression?
Spinal decompression is a treatment to relieve pressure on one or many “pinched nerves” in the spinal column. It can be achieved either surgically or by non-surgical methods. Spinal decompression is used to treat conditions that cause chronic backaches such as herniated disc, disc bulge, sciatica, and spinal stenosis.
What is the Non-surgical Method of Spinal Decompression?
A safe and non-invasive form of spinal decompression therapy nearly 15-24 treatment sessions to achieve the best results.
When undergoing spinal decompression, you will be made to rest on a therapeutic table. This is connected to a computer, which sends electronic information to stretch and decompress the spinal structure. A padded harness is worn and during the spinal decompression session, gentle force is applied to the spinal column, focusing on the area that is being treated. The pressure is applied to decompress the spine, intervertebral discs, and joints. You will experience multiple cycles of treatment lasting for 2-3 minutes at each spinal decompression session. The machine is monitored by a technician.
Even though you may experience relief in a single therapy session, you should complete the full treatment cycle plan to gain complete healing of the injured disc.
What is the Surgical Method of Spinal Decompression?
Surgical spinal decompression is performed by two procedures:
Micro discectomy: This is a minimally invasive procedure that involves the removal of a portion of a herniated nucleus pulposus by a surgical instrument or laser.
Laminectomy: This is a procedure in which a small portion of the arch of the vertebrae is removed to relieve pressure on the pinched nerve. This is performed as a last resort when conservative treatments fail to provide relief from back pain.

If regular physical activity benefits the body, then it goes without saying that an inactive lifestyle does the complete opposite, thereby increasing the chances of becoming overweight and developing various chronic diseases. According to studies conducted by a team from the Centres for Disease Control (CDC) and Prevention, inactivity is closely associated with approximately 9 million cases of cardiovascular disease each year. Further studies have concluded that individuals who spend more time each day sitting and watching television, or riding in vehicles have a greater chance of dying prematurely compared to individuals who spend more time upright and active. Researchers consider that sitting for extended periods of time may alter an individual's metabolism in ways that promote sleep disorders, anxiety and depression, diabetes, obesity, heart disease, and other chronic conditions.
It seems that being a couch potato may even be damaging for individuals who participate in regular physical exercise. A recent Nurse's Health Study, being just one of numerous studies conducted to try and find a strong association between watching television and obesity, followed more than 50 thousand middle aged women for six years documenting their daily diet and activity. The conclusion was that for every two hours the women spent watching television each day, they had a 14 percent higher risk of developing diabetes, and a 23 percent higher risk of becoming obese. The study also revealed that it made no difference that some of the women were enthusiastic exercisers. This study highlighted the fact that the more television these women watched, the more likely they were to develop diabetes or gain weight. So basically, while regular physical activity is essential to gaining the required physical fitness, be very conscience of extended periods spent sitting as this also increases the risk of diabetes and obesity.
The physical activity guidelines we often see posted at healthy establishments are general suggestions aimed at the general population to encourage more participation in becoming active. The problem with guidelines is that they attempt to cover as many individuals as possible, in other words, they are not an accurate measure of activity for anyone in particular. How much physical activity or exercise you need depends on how fit you are currently, your diet, your current muscle to fat ratio, your genes, and your capability for exercise. If you are looking to evade middle aged spread, then adequate physical activity is as vital as monitoring your diet. There is no hard and fast rule as to how much regular physical activity you will require to maintain a healthy weight. Many healthy individuals seem to require at least 2.5 hours of moderate intensity activity a week to maintain a stable weight. If you are looking to remove a few kilos, then slightly increase to 3.5 hours per week, but do not cheat yourself of even one minute!
A study conducted of more than 7 thousand men revealed that older individuals, those who are unfit, or those with disabilities can gain as much benefit from 30 minutes of slow paced walking or other low impact exercises, as younger fitness fanatics gain from the same 30 minutes of high intensity activity. It just goes to show that if an exercise routine feels tough, then it is most certainly doing your body a huge advantage even though it may not fall into the moderate intensity category. If you are currently inactive or unfit, the thought may be overwhelming to start out with 30 minutes a day of physical activity for five days a week. Try beginning with a shorter, less intense session of activity, and then gradually increase this over time until you have reached or exceeded the goal. This begin slowly method and build up over time advice for regular physical activity applies to everyone, but is especially true for older individuals as beginning slowly may assist in avoiding the risk of injury.
Do not fall into the trap of cheating yourself from gaining a good workout session, over time as your body adapts to the exercise routine, you will need to increase the intensity or time spent doing the routine to gain the same beneficial cardiovascular workout. Many individuals begin with focussing too much on counting rather than their form when exercising, this is just another way to cheat yourself, if you are just doing 20 of this and 20 of that and not concentrating on performing the movement correctly, then you are just creating wind. If you are going to spend 30 minutes of exercising, then make every minute count, it is for your benefit! Please be aware that your 2.5 hours of activity should be in addition to the light activity that is part of everyday living, but any moderate to vigorous everyday lifestyle activity can certainly count toward your weekly total if the activity is sustained for at least 10 minutes or more.
Regular physical activity or regular exercise is one of those rare things where the hype actually meets reality. Getting regular physical activity is arguably the most excellent action you can do for enhancing your health. Any measure of physical activity is better than none, although the more you get, the better the advantage. Always keep in the back of your mind that sitting for long periods of time is detrimental to your health, so get upright and look for solutions to reducing the amount of time that you sit!

I would try to get rid of the trigonometric functions, and rather rewrite the system as a polynomial system. If $x_j=\cos(\phi_j)$, then $\cos(\phi_j(2\ell+1))=T_{2\ell+1}(x_j)$, where $T_k$ is the $k$-th Chebychev polynomial of degree $k$. So your system of equations is $$0=1+2\sum_j T_{2\ell+1}(x_j),\;\;l=1,2,\dots,m,$$ with the requirement that $0<x_j\le 1$. Such a system can be discussed via Groebner bases, see here how to do that with Sage. For $m=n\le4$ there are only finitely many solutions. Among them pick those which fit your inequalities. For instance, for $m=n=4$, an approximation of a solution seems to be \begin{align*} x_1 &= 0.963494595276259\\ x_2 &= 0.852773246361416\\ x_3 &= 0.600336170417163\\ x_4 &= 0.058262327046178 \end{align*} Of course, you can use this technique also to handle the original case, where $t_j$ need not have length $1$. For instance, for $n=2$ one can show that $m\le4$, and and approximate solution for $m=4$ is $t_1=0.466916296430820 + 0.717248344919154i$, $t_2=0.856453001234213 + 0.445264622297009i$.
One cannot expect simple expressions for the $t_j$. For instance, the absolute values of the $t_j$ are roots of an irreducible (over the rationals) polynomial of degree $60$.

“Three things tell a man: his eyes, his friends and his favorite quotes.”
Hubert H. Humphrey (American Politician)
Date of Birth:
May 27, 1911
Date of Death:
January 13, 1978
Hubert Horatio Humphrey, Jr. was the thirty-eighth Vice President of the United States, serving under President Lyndon B. Johnson. Humphrey twice served as a United States Senator from Minnesota, and served as Democratic Majority Whip. He was a founder of the Minnesota Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party and Americans for Democratic Action. He also served as mayor of Minneapolis, Minnesota, 1945–1949. In 1968, Humphrey was the nominee of the Democratic Party in the United States presidential election but narrowly lost to the Republican nominee, Richard Nixon.
In a renowned speech, Humphrey told the 1948 Democratic National Convention, "The time has arrived in America for the Democratic Party to get out of the shadow of states' rights and walk forthrightly into the bright sunshine of human rights," winning support for a pro-civil-rights plank in the Party's platform.

Funeral sayings are short sentences or phrases that are related to life, death, dying, or a recent loss that do not necessary rhyme but are though-provoking. They may be taken from old proverbs or said by a famous person such as a past President.They can also come from ancient books, biblical books and well known historical figures. Sayings can be generic, faith based or secular. From a person reading it who was not acquainted with the deceased, it may not make sense to them but what is important is that it is important to the immediate family and close friends.
The Funeral Program Site creates word art from many funeral sayings in an elegant presentation. Each word is carefully given the honor it deserves by the typeface and style created. The use of script and coordinating combinations of lettering style give the end resulting saying an amazing and appealing presentation. They can also be printed and framed and used as a decorative item in a home or office. Most people are attracted to lovely words written in a lovely fashion however, you do not need to present any of the following sayings in that way. They can simply be written out in a simple, easy to read font face and still make the profound impact it does. It is purely by personal preference on which way you like.
You can also add to this list by using a saying your loved one was known to say. It does not have to makes sense to everyone but the family and friends who knew the deceased will remember the words clearly. Funeral sayings can be written and included in your printed memorials or said aloud at the end of a reading or eulogy. Including it somewhere within the service or personalized on a memorial keepsake creates an added special touch for any ceremony.
Here are a list we've compiled for popular funeral sayings. If you use them in a printed document, please remember to credit the person responsible for coining the saying.

Lead exposure can lead to Alzheimer’s – a progressive disease that destroys memory and other important mental function, scientists at the Indian Council of Medical Research-led National Institute of Nutrition (ICMR-NIN) have established through laboratory-based studies.
Lead is a common pollutant that can get into environment from a number of commonly used materials like paints, cosmetics, batteries, glass and low grade toys, and is known to affect the central nervous system after prolonged exposure.
Its role as a risk factor in development of neurodegenerative diseases is also established through various studies globally.
“Recent lab-based studies conducted at ICMR-NIN have now established the possible link between lead exposure and Alzheimer’s disease,” said ICMR in a statement.
A team led by ICMR- NIN’s senior scientist Dr Suresh Challa has shown the molecular mechanism involved in the development of lead induced Alzheimer’s disease through in vitro studies.
“In fact, Alzheimer’s Disease has a complex pathophysiology which involves initially formation of beta amyloid plaques and tangles in the brain. In addition, oxidative stress and inflammation are known to be involved in the progression of the disease, with loss of memory and neuronal cell death. In this scenario, our study investigated the basic molecular mechanism behind the involvement of lead in Alzheimer’s disease,” said Dr Challa
The scientists simulated brain cells in vitro with beta amyloid peptides like in Alzheimer’s disease and the effect of lead exposure was then studied. It showed increased cell death and increased levels of pro-apoptotic marker proteins.
Also, the proteins involved in neurodevelopment and regeneration have depleted. Such effects led to decreased expression levels of synaptophysin (membrane protein), finally leading to loss of memory as in Alzheimer’s disease.
“Maternal exposure to lead during pregnancy can cause developmental reprogramming which can lead to higher risk and early onset of Alzheimer’s disease in later life of the child. Since lead exposure is an important public health concern, the current findings could be another piece in solving the puzzle towards understanding the intracellular mechanism of Alzheimer’s disease. Such findings may as well help in developing preventive and management strategies for elderly,” said Dr R Hemalatha, director, ICMR-NIN.

CPSLD records dated between 1969 and 1975 focus on the development of library standards, facilities and resource sharing. Material dated between 1976 and 1983, primarily concerns the Management Indicators Project. In 1976, the Deputy Minister of Education requested CPSLD produce standards that would be acceptable to the Ministry and to the BC college community. A Standards Committee was established with representation from BC post‐secondary libraries, the BC Association of Colleges, college principals, and the Ministry's Academic and Management Advisory Councils. Five areas were taken into account: budget, staff, facilities, services, and Audio‐Visual equipment. An interim report was submitted in 1980.The committee was asked to take into account: multi‐campus operation, proximity to other LRCs and access to other learning resources, proportion of full‐time to part‐time students, types of educational delivery systems in use, program mix, and the effect of outreach programs. A final report [Welwood Report] was submitted 1981. After 1986 the issues of automation in libraries and electronic resource sharing are addressed.

बैक हिन्दी - विज्ञान - मोटापा ले सकता है बच्चों की जान
ब्रिटिश हर्ट फॉउंडेशन में हृदय रोग की वरिष्ठ नर्स डोइरन मैडॉक बॉडी मास इंडेक्स के अनुसार जिन बच्चों का दो साल की उम्र में बॉडी मास इंडेक्स २०.५ है उन्हें काफी मोटा माना जाता है लेकिन अगर किसी १८ साल के लड़के का इंडेक्स 3५ है तो उन्हें भी बहुत मोटा माना जाता है.
शोध में कहा गया है, सबसे बुरी खबर यह है कि १२ वर्ष से कम उम्र के मोटे बच्चों में हृदय रोग के लक्षण दिखाई दिए हैं.
ब्रिटिश हर्ट फॉउंडेशन में हृदय रोग की वरिष्ठ नर्स डोइरन मैडॉक का कहना है, हालांकि यह काफी छोटा अध्ययन है, फिर भी इस खबर से निराशा होती है.
डोइरन मैडोक का कहना है, .

बच्चों को दवा देते समय रखें सावधानी - ज्ञानईज्ञान
होम हिंदी लाइफस्टाइल बच्चों को दवा देते समय रखें सावधानी
बच्चों को दवा देते समय पूरी सावधानी रखनी चाहिये नहीं तो वे बार बार बीमार पड़ेंगे। अक्सर जब आपके बच्चे बीमार पड़ते हैं तब आप उसे डॉक्टर के पास लेकर जाते हैं, और डॉक्टर के द्वारा गई दवाओं और उनके दिशा-निर्देशों का पालन करते हैं। इसके बाद भी कभी-कभी अभिभाव कुछ गलतियां कर बैठते हैं जिसका नुकसान आपके बच्चे को भुगतना पड़ता है। दरअसल जब बच्चे बीमार होते हैं तब आप सोचते हैं कि वह कितनी जल्दी ठीक हो जाएं, और वह हो भी जातें हैं। जब आप डॉक्टर के द्वारा दी गई दवा का पूरा खुराक या कोर्स पूरा नहीं करते हैं, तब वह बच्चों में जल्दी और दुबारा बीमार होने के कारण को पैदा करता है।
कई मामलों में ज्यादातर अभिभावक बच्चों को बीमारी से आराम आते ही दवा खिलाना बंद कर देते हैं क्योंकि, उन्हें लगता है कि अब बच्चे ठीक हो गए हैं तो ज्यादा दवा देना सही नहीं है लेकिन, कई बार ऐसी चीजें गलत हो जाती हैं, क्योंकि जब आप दवा के कोर्स को अधूरा छोड़ देती हैं तो परिणाम यह होता है कि बच्चे फिर से बार-बार बीमार पड़ने लगते हैं।
हालाँकि, इन मामलों में डॉक्टरों का मानना है कि बच्चे को दवा की पूरी खुराक नहीं देना ही बच्चों के बार-बार बीमार पड़ने की वजह होती है।
ऐसे में हमेशा दवाई की पूरी डोज दें
जब आप किसी भी दवा की खुराक पूरा नहीं करती हैं तब इस तरह के संक्रमण का खतरा रहता है क्योंकि, जब तक बच्चे के शरीर में दवा का असर रहता है तब तक वो ठीक रहते हैं और जैसे ही आप दवा बंद करती हैं वैसे ही संक्रमण दुबारा से शरीर पर हमला बोल देते हैं। इसलिए डॉक्टर के अनुसार आप दवा की पूरी खुराक अपने बच्चे को दें।
बीमारी जड़ से नहीं मिटती है
यह बिल्कुल सच है कि जब आप डॉक्टर द्वारा बताई गई दवा का कोर्स पूरा नहीं करती हैं तब बीमारी जड़ से खत्म नहीं होती है। कुछ मामलों में बच्चे ठीक होने की बजाय और अधिक बीमार होने लगते हैं।
अक्सर आपने देखा होगा कि हर दवाई का एक खुराक होता है, जिसे पूरा करने पर ही वह शरीर में असर करता है। इसलिए डॉक्टर हमेशा डोज को ध्यान में रख कर ही किसी को दवा लिखते हैं, क्योंकि उन्हें पता होता है कि कौन से दवा का कितना डोज दिया जाना चाहिए हालाँकि, अभिभावक बच्चों को दवाई देने और बंद करने से पहले डॉक्टर की सलाह जरूर लें क्योंकि, आपकी एक गलती बच्चों के लिए हानिकारक साबित हो सकती है।

Bad news for those who have replaced books with e-readers - new research suggests that if you use light-emitting e-books before bed, it could be having a negative effect on your sleep, which in turn could cause some pretty serious health issues down the line.
This year in America, 28 percent of adults have read at least one e-book, up from 23 percent at the end of 2012, and they currently make up about 2 percent of the total book market. According to The Australian, they now represent at least 12 percent of the Australian book market, and in Britain, the proportion of e-book sales is around 16 percent. It’s pretty clear that they’re becoming a regular part of many people’s lives, so it’s more important than ever to figure out if the switch from paperback to digital is causing any adverse health effects that we should be aware of
As reading is most often done in bed right before we doze off, researchers at Harvard University and Penn State University in the US conducted a small study to test the effects of light-emitting e-books on sleep. They split a group of 12 physically healthy young adults into two groups - one would read a light-emitting e-book on an iPad set to maximum brightness in a dimly lit room for four hours every night before bed over the course of five days, and the other would do the same, but with a printed book. After the five days, the two groups would swap.
Throughout the experiment, the participants’ melatonin levels were measured, and their brain activity was monitored to figure out how long it took each of them to all asleep, and how long each stage of sleep lasted throughout the night.
Melatonin is a brain chemical that’s emitted when we spend time in a dark environment, so when we expose ourselves to bright light, we’re actively suppressing our melatonin levels. Which is pretty dangerous, as melatonin controls our daily night-day cycle, and this regulates several crucial biological processes, including how we sleep. That’s why melatonin is often used as a treatment for those with problems getting to sleep.
As Nicholas Bakalar reports for The New York Times, the researchers found that exposure to the bright light of e-readers dramatically suppressed the release of melatonin in their 12 participants. It also decreased sleepiness, and reduced the time spend in REM sleep - commonly referred to as dream sleep.
“We found the body’s natural circadian rhythms were interrupted by the short-wavelength enriched light, otherwise known as blue light, from these electronic devices,” said lead author and neuroscientist at Penn State, Anne-Marie Chang, in a press release. “Participants reading an [light-emitting] LE-eBook took longer to fall asleep and had reduced evening sleepiness, reduced melatonin secretion, later timing of their circadian clock and reduced next-morning alertness than when reading a printed book.”
The results were published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
Although iPads were used in the study, the team also measured similar devices that emit blue light, such as eReaders, laptops, smartphones and LED monitors. But, as George Dvorsky points out at io9, they didn’t actually test these other devices with their volunteers, so we can’t draw any conclusions related to these devices just yet. And as the iPads used in the experiment were cranked up to full brightness, perhaps by simply turning the brightness down, we could effectively lessen the negative effects.
On the other hand, four hours of screen exposure before bed is an unrealistically modest amount of time, if we’re thinking about actual people’s lives, as Dvorsky explains:
“The four-hours of exposure to LE eReaders prior to sleep is not indicative of reality these days. Most of us experience far more than that - typically around seven to eight hours. In future, I'd like to see the study repeated, but with real world conditions, an assortment of devices (the effects of each measured individually), and at varying rates of illumination. Also, melatonin rates should be measured after the end of each night rather than at the end of the five-day session."
It’s still early days, but preliminary results suggest that we need to seriously reconsider our commitment to screens in the hours preceding bedtime if we want to ensure our ongoing health.
“Much more has to be known about the kind of impact these devices have on our health and well-being,” Chang told Bakalar at The New York Times. “The technology moves quickly, and the science lags.”

Human beings are good at detecting patterns around them. Sometimes these patterns are real, like a predator rustling in a bush or the point-origin of cholera in London in the 1850s. Other times, the human pattern recognition systems make a false positive identification, such as faces on the Moon, the virgin Mary on a peace of grilled cheese sandwich, satanic backmasking in songs and so on. Therefore, it is very important to make sure that you validate a putative pattern before you announce your discovery to the world. If you do not and you are wrong, then you might just end up being criticized on a blog somewhere.
A video posted on Youtube earlier this month has been making its way across the Internet. It was put together by self-identified UFOlogist Scott C. Waring and allegedly shows what Waring thinks is a rodent on Mars. As we will see, it is just a rock that, if you zoom in, has a couple of features that kind of remind you of a rodent of some sort. However, the original large image has been selected among 100+ images and the data has been made less fine-grained by the zooming procedure. Among thousands and thousands of rocks of different shapes and sizes, some rocks are bound to look like something we know especially when our natural tendency for pareidolia has been enhanced by grainy data. Not to mention the fact that a rodent could not possibly survive on Mars.
Let us go over all of the reasoning errors, in order of appearance, performed by Waring in this video.
Confirmation bias and unchecked pareidolia
Here is how Waring describes his approach (0:23 – 1:01):
Now, I went to the Internet to try and prove that this object looks like a squirrel and there you go [showing a photo of a squirrel – Emil Karlsson’s note], there is the photograph, right there. It is in the same position. You see the arms, the pinkish around the hand, the pinkish around the nose, and the eye. Now, what is really unusual about this is look around the eyeball. Around the eyeball around this animal there is light color around it. Now look up here [at the rock – Emil Karlsson’s note] around the eyeball, there is lighter color around it, it becomes lighter. This story is getting harder and harder for NASA to deny.
Notice how Waring says that his mission was to try and prove that this object was a squirrel. An unbiased investigator would rather attempt to establish whether or not this object was a squirrel. This shows that Waring starts with his preferred interpretation of the data, and then goes out to find evidence supporting such an interpretation. In addition, he focuses exclusively on things that appear to confirm this position, rather than things that count against it. This is clear from the fact that he only looks at one reference photograph of a squirrel and most discuss the ways in which the rock resembles a squirrel and not the ways in which it is different from a squirrel. To his credit, Waring does point out that the “squirrel” rock does not have a long tail, but instead of letting this come in the way of his belief, he dismisses it by saying that NASA probably just cut it off.
From his conclusion that the rock kinda looks like a squirrel, Waring concludes that it is, in fact, a squirrel on Mars. He does not even stop to consider that his assessment of the resemblance is due to pareidolia. Instead, he moves straight to discussing how this “squirrel” has gotten on Mars.
His main “explanation” for how this “squirrel” (which is actually just a rock) ended up on Mars is that NASA took a squirrel from earth, placed it into a state of hibernation and transported it to Mars on the Mars Rover for animal experimentation. The rationale for this is supposedly that NASA wanted to see how long a squirrel would survive on the planet with the radiation, heat and lack of food and water etc.
However, Waring is forgetting one important thing: squirrels, like all animals, require oxygen or they die. The atmosphere of Mars consists of 95% carbon dioxide and only trace amounts of oxygen. This means that a hypothetical squirrel placed on Mars would not be able to survive long enough for radiation, heat or the lack of food and water to become an issue. Death due to suffocation would occur within minutes.
The notion that this “squirrel” is part of an animal experiment by NASA to test animal survival on Mars also has another flaw: it is possible to recreate the large-scale physical conditions of Mars in the lab. An agency like NASA would probably not waste a lot of money for something that (1) can be done in a lab setting faster and cheaper and (2) wont be of any scientific relevance since the squirrel will suffocate to death pretty fast (so it is not possible to study squirrel survival in a Mars-like environment using accurate atmospheric conditions anyways).
Waring later provides an even more astonishing hypotheses: the “squirrel” represents an actual rodent species native to Mars. This has the same problems as before: how can a mammal that is large compared with organisms that acquire oxygen though passive diffusion survive in an atmosphere that is 95-96% carbon dioxide and hardly any oxygen? Further, what kind of food does it eat? On earth, squirrels eat plant material such as seeds and nuts, but there are no such plants living on Mars. Although Waring does admit that this is a far-fetched idea, I am not sure he understands exactly how ludicrous it actually is.
Fun with zooming and data dredging
Waring then zooms out from the zoomed-in photograph of the squirrel-like rock to give viewers a larger view. From a larger view (although not large enough to fit the entire photograph), the squirrel-like rock appears to be nothing more than a common rock. I fact, it is barely noticeable. This means that it would have to have been identified either by chance or by scanning an enormous amount of zoomed in frames in order to find one that looked good. Thus, the result may be due to data dredging: looking at tens of thousands of zoomed in shots, one is bound to find some false positives. If you highlight these false positives and ignore all the other frames that just look like rock-covered surfaces, one is guilty of this kind of dishonest data mining.
He also goes through the process of how he got the zoomed in frame in question. He downloaded the full-size photograph from the NASA website, enlarged it, and went through repeated 80% resizes until the squirrel-like rock is visible. While such a process may prevent or reduce the risk of the image becoming pixelated, it does nothing to prevent what is known as interpolation. Basically, the moment you enlarge a picture, you create more pixels. But what are these pixels filled with? As it turns out, the image editing software makes an interpolation: it estimates an approximation based on the color, intensity etc. of surrounding pixels. Every time an image is resized, interpolation cause a loss in image quality. The less image quality a photograph has, the higher is the risk of pareidolia.
It is just a rock.
Almost every part of Waring’s inquiry is fraught with error: he starts from the position he wants to prove, selectively focus on evidence that supports his idea while dismissing evidence that does not, unchecked pareidolia, data dredging and a profound ignorance of biology and scientific research. In addition, he does not even take into account the very real problem of interpolation.

Do you see the entire path or flight of your next shot, or do you see a straight line? How you see your next shot – and the style and fit of your clubs – can substantially affect your success!
According to Australian teaching professional Paul Buchanan, there are 2 significant ‘shot-reading’ styles that players use and both are effective in different ways. One is called “Linear”, the other is “Path”, and each is affected by the style and fit of your clubs – especially in the short game. I recently had the opportunity to work with Buchanan on a shot-reading clinic in Bridport, Australia, and the results were quite telling in terms of how players intend to play their shots vs. their results, and even how their clubs are fit.
For example, Linear shot-reading players normally aim straight for the pin and try to make their shots go straight. Linear players read putts straight and speak in terms of inches or feet of break on either side of the hole. Linear players are more likely to be aggressive putters much like Tom Watson, with a never-up-never-in mentality. They aren’t worried about running the ball past the hole as they see the return putt also straight.
Linear players see straight lines, have trouble with the concepts of trying to curve the ball, and have difficulty understanding why a ball above or below your feet would go off line. Linear players typically have angles on their putters, with offset ‘goose-necked’ hosels and strong alignment lines.
Linear players are less likely to worry about fitting their short clubs, preferring to rely on their swing to carry the day and not blame equipment. When practicing they are concerned with distance control and will practice straight putts with straight-line training aids. Linear players may benefit more from traditional straight-line putting instruction, and will take more time to line up the lines on the ball and the alignment of their club and body.
On the other hand, Path players see their putts and shots in curves and flight paths. They can see where the ball will be anywhere along the path or flight of the ball, and are more receptive of curving techniques.
Path players tend to be less aggressive and prefer to work with the slopes they face with the ball dying in the hole, much like Ben Crenshaw. If they do go past the hole they are likely to watch the ball as it goes by to get an idea of how it might break coming back. Path players have less angles and less offset hosels, and use less lines and alignment guides on their putters – or no lines at all.
Path players will pay more attention to fitting their short clubs, especially the lie angles, and will include fitting their putters. Path players will assess their shots more quickly, and see influences that Linear players might miss. Path players will more easily understand curves and slope influences, and may be better putters from long distances.
Path players tend to more readily understand the differences in fitting variables of their clubs, and understand that the more loft there is from club to club the more direction is lost by either an ill-fitted lie angle or a slope on the course. They know that driver fitting is important, and fitting their scoring clubs is at least as important, if not moreso.
Path players generally take less time to play their shots, translating what they see in path into a feel or a procedure much more quickly, suggesting that they are more into the procedure and movement than the alignment.
How Path vs. Linear affects learning and play is important: Linear players are more likely to set up alignment sticks and practice hitting straight shots, but may have more trouble on slopes and with different grass conditions. Path players put more emphasis into the movements and paths necessary to perform, and may be better on different slopes and grass conditions.
So are you a Linear player, or a Path player? According to Paul Buchanan, how you see your next shot has a big effect on how your clubs are fit, and on how you play your next shot.

As explained earlier, the name Mordan is derived from a book by Dutch SF author Tais Teng. However, a proper etymology for this name is still lacking. Though I have proposed that “Mordan” might refer to the island of Saint-Martin, I have yet figured out a better and more satisfying etymology. Continue reading Mardonius
Earlier we developed the theory of public property as a special case of co-ownership. Property includes the rights of usus, fructus and abusus. This piece will discuss the nature of the everyman’s right or the freedom to roam within the theory of land as common property. Continue reading Everyman’s right
In this document we outline the principles of public policy. These principles are:
- equitable society
- permanent education
Here we will give a short overview of Mordan Property Law. Since this is still a proposal, we restricts this discussion the essential features of Mordan Property Law. We will cover three topics: immovable property, movable property and animals.
All land is the inalienable property of the people. Though the government will be responsible to manage this on behalf of the people, it will be incorrect to refer to land as “state” or “government property”.
With the exception of animals (see below) the law on movable property will not differ much from most terrestrial legal sytems. Full ownership of both personal and capital goods will possible and expropriation is not allowed without due cause and adequate compensation.
Under Mordan law animals cannot be owned by humans, as they are not things but sentient beings. Nevertheless people can keep, under certain limitations, animals. However, this relation will be a type of guardianship rather than ownership.
Since animals are not property, they cannot be sized for the settlement of debts. The forfeiture of animals is only possible for the sake of animal welfare or public health.
Blue stands for loyalty, white for purity or integrity and green for hope. The heptagram represents the seven initial states of Mordan.
Adjective: Mordan (example: the Mordan constitution)
Inhabitant: Mordan (example: two Mordans walk on the street)
Zelfstandig naamwoord: Mordan (dus niet Mordanië)

At Sumo Logic we use the Scala programming language, and we are always on the lookout for ways that we can leverage its features to write high-quality software. The type class pattern (an idea which comes from Haskell) provides a flexible mechanism for associating behaviors with types, and context bounds make this pattern particularly easy to express in Scala code. Using this technique, we can extend existing types with new functionalities without worrying about inheritance. In this post we introduce a motivating example and examine a few different ways to express our ideas in code before coming back to type classes, context bounds, and what they can do for us.
Machine learning example: fixed length feature vector representation
Consider a machine learning setting where we have a very simple binary linear classifier that classifies an item according to the sign of the inner product between a weight vector and a fixed-length feature vector representation of that item. For this classifier to work on elements of some type T, we need a way to convert an instance of T into an Array[Double] for our inner product calculation. Converting some object of interest into this more abstract representation is a very common pre-processing task for machine learning algorithms, and is often handled in the simplest possible way, which we introduce as Option #1.
Option 1: require the caller to convert their data to Array[Double] before calling our code
This is the simplest possible approach, but it has a few disadvantages. First, we’re forcing the caller to do the conversions and bookkeeping around the association between the original objects of type T and their corresponding feature vectors. We are also disregarding the assistance of Scala’s type system – it could be possible to accidentally train the same classifier on incompatible types T1 and T2, because the classifier only knows about Array[Double]. Extending this idea, consider a NearestNeighbors class that uses feature vectors to return the k nearest neighbor training examples for a given test example. This class could potentially return feature vectors constructed from different original types than T, which may not be the desired behavior.
Option 2: add a parameter T => Array[Double] that allows us to compute a feature vector from an instance of T
This has some advantages over Option #1: the caller no longer worries about the associations between instances of T and Array[Double]. We also gain the benefits of Scala’s type-checking, in that a LinearClassifier[T1] will complain about being asked to classify a T2. However this approach also introduces additional burdens:
- if we call other methods that require this functionality, we need to continue passing the function around, or we need to evaluate it and pass its result (an Array[Double]) around, essentially assuming the bookkeeping burden from Option #1.
- if we want to enrich the our feature representation with more information (e.g., an IndexedSeq[String] describing each feature), we would need to add another function or another output to this function. This could quickly become messy.
Option 3: define a FeatureVector trait with a method features: Array[Double], adding the type bound T <: FeatureVector
Now we are getting somewhere – this design alleviates the two stated disadvantages of Option #2. However, this unfortunately assumes that the original definition of T must have been aware of the FeatureVector trait in order to extend it. Alternatively, the caller could define and instantiate some “wrapper” class that extends FeatureVector. One hazard of the wrapper approach is that it could become unwieldy if we want to further augment T with other functionality. We would either need separate wrappers for every combination of functionalities, or we would need to nest wrappers somehow. If we did decide to use wrappers, we could use Scala’s implicit machinery to automate the wrapping/unwrapping with a view bound T <% FeatureVector.
The concept of sub-typing is usually associated with an is-a relation: the bound T <: FeatureVector asserts that our code can treat T as a FeatureVector in the sense that T will supply a features() method. A type class can be thought of as a has-a relation: we would like to ensure that type T has some associated type FeatureVector[T] capable of computing features(x: T) for any given instance x of type T. This design facilitates separation of concerns while still leveraging the type system: instead of having our item T know how to turn itself into an Array[Double], we can easily drop in different implementations of FeatureVector[T] that may compute features(x: T) in different ways. Also, by supplying separate T-parametrized types for different functionalities, we can mix and match behaviors onto our pre-existing type T more easily than we could with wrappers. A classic example from the Scala standard libraries is the Ordering[T] trait: Rather than requiring instances of T to supply an implementation of compare(x: T), we can rely on the existence of an Ordering[T] capable of computing compare(x: T, y: T).
Option 4: define a type FeatureVector[T] and use the context bound T : FeatureVector
In this version, we have a type-parameterized trait FeatureVector[T], which we define as being able to compute features(x: T) for instances of our type T. Similar to a view bound, the context bound LinearClassifier[T : FeatureVector] asserts the existence of an implicit instance of type FeatureVector[T] in the scope of the caller, and then threading it through to all further calls. If no FeatureVector[T] is available, we will get an error at compile time. For a full runnable example using this approach, see this gist.
Note that we could use this design without context bounds or implicits by explicitly passing around an instance of FeatureVector[T], similar to how we passed a function around in Option #2 above. Like Option #2 however, we would have the burden of passing an extra argument around, and this inconvenience might discourage us from factoring our code in this way.
This has been a slightly circuitous journey, but I hope the running example and discussion of different alternatives has helped to illustrate the usefulness of the type class pattern and context bounds in Scala. See the references below for more details.

UH Manoa researchers look to the horizon of future planet searchesUniversity of Hawaiʻi
School of Ocean and Earth Sciences and Technology
Nader Haghighipour, (808) 956-6880
UH Institute for Astronomy
HONOLULU - In a paper published this week in the journal Science, three University of Hawaii at Mānoa researchers and their colleagues review the prospects for discovering smaller planets more like Earth, some of which may even have conditions suitable for life. Astronomers reported the first planet around another Sun-like star in 1995 and since then have found more than 200 such planets, all thought to be "gas giants" made mostly of hydrogen and helium like Jupiter and Saturn in our Solar System.
"The most successful technique for discovering planets to date spreads light from the host star into its constitutive wavelengths (colors)" said lead author Eric Gaidos, who is an associate professor in the Department of Geology & Geophysics and the NASA Astrobiology Institute at UH Mānoa. "A shift in wavelength, analogous to the change in pitch of the horn of a passing automobile, reveals any motion of the star along the line of sight. Monitoring of a star can detect periodic motion caused by the gravitational pull of any unseen, orbiting planet."
Improved techniques and the ability to monitor fainter stars now enable astronomers to discover smaller planets, particularly planets orbiting much closer to their host star than the Earth is to the Sun. New computer simulations such as those performed by Sean Raymond, co-author of the paper and NASA Postdoctoral Fellow at the University of Colorado Boulder, show how such planets could form further out and then "migrate" inwards to such orbits.
Another method now used to find planets is to observe the slight decrease in light from the star as an orbiting planet passes in front of it. This happens only for those planets whose orbits by chance are seen edge-on. Jupiter-sized planets can be found this way using telescopes on the ground, but Earth-size planets might be detected by the European CoRoT spacecraft, now in orbit, and NASA‘s Kepler spacecraft, scheduled to launch in 2009.
"These methods can sometimes be combined to estimate the density of the planet, which will tell us whether the planet is composed mostly of rock and metal, like Earth, or something else such as water ice," said Gaidos.
Computational simulations by co-author Nader Haghighipour, a planetary dynamicist at the Institute for Astronomy and the Astrobiology Institute at UH Mānoa, have shown that smaller Earth-sized planets can indeed exist in such tight planetary environments.
According to the paper, planets orbiting much closer to a star like the Sun will be much hotter and, like Mercury and Venus in our Solar System, inhospitable to life. However, many stars are much less bright than the Sun, and planets close to them could still orbit within a "habitable zone" where surface temperatures could permit stable liquid water.
"Explaining the formation of habitable planets in such environments is a challenging task. However, our simulations have been successful in determining condition under which planets similar to Earth can form in the habitable zones of less bright stars," said Haghighipour.
Future space observatories beginning with NASA‘s James Webb Space Telescope have the potential to study such planets and determine whether they have atmospheres or oceans.
Added Gaidos, "The discovery of another life-bearing planet would be a scientific triumph for humanity, but the study of many lifeless, un-Earthly worlds would nevertheless tell us about how planets form, and help us appreciate the Earth all that much more".
Other researchers contributing to the paper were John Rayner of the Institute for Astronomy at UH Mānoa, Eric Agol of the University of Washington and David Latham of the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics.

Purpose: Enalapril maleate (EPM), was used for hypertension and congestive heart failure. In this way, an innovative delivery system with mPEG–PCL was synthesized and the release profile of the EPM from the drug-loaded polymersomes was evaluated.
Methods: Di-block methoxy)-poly (ethylene glycol) - Poly (caprolactone) (mPEG-PCL) copolymers were synthesized and used to prepare of polymersomes for controlled release of EPM as hydrophilic model drug. MPEG-PCL copolymer was characterized in vitro by HNMR, FTIR, DSC and GPC techniques. The resulting polymersomes were characterized further by various techniques such as dynamic light scattering (DLS) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM).
Results: The results of TEM shows the polymersomes formed had spherical structure and the size of nanoparticles is 80 nm. The loading and encapsulation efficiency of EPM were determinate by HPLC at 215 nm with loading and encapsulation efficiency 19.8% ± 2.12% and 85.6% ± 1.26%, respectively. Study on DSC results exposed strong interaction between EPM and copolymer. In vitro release of EPM from polymersomes was clearly sustained in all the time tested for this purpose. The sustained release of drug was hypothetically due to the entrapment of EPM in core of polymersomes. Polymersomes also showed acceptable stability for long periods of time.
Conclusion: The results indicate the successful formulation of EPM loaded m-PEG/PCL polymersomes. Overall, the results was showed that m-PEG-PCL polymersomes can be considered as a promising carrier for hydrophilic drugs such as EPM.

As Conference Chair I am delighted to announce that NCAD will be hosting a Cumulus Conference in November 2013.
The conference theme is More for Less – Design in an Age of Austerity.
“Less, but better.” Dieter Rams
“Ideas create wealth, and the intellectual property they develop not only improves lives, but will also power us out of recession.” James Dyson
Today’s global recession forces design practice, research and education to address a number of questions:
- How can design find a balance between excess and austerity?
- How can design help the education of the next generation?
- How can we use design to create places and spaces for renewal and growth?
- How can design improve our wellbeing and welfare?
- How can design bring local communities together to work on projects that improve how we live, work and play?
We propose that in the deepest recession since the great depression of the 1930s we need to turn the modernist mantra ‘less is more’ on its head as the reduced budgets of governments, business and people demand ‘more for less’, and develop a ‘New Deal’ for design.
Vibrant economies are built on innovation, but with this comes an ethical responsibility that Design, the engine of the previous decades unsustainable consumerism and excess needs to address. This conference hopes to stimulate discussion on how design researchers, practitioners and educators can respond to today’s fiscal constraints, and stimulate growth and renewal in our economy, culture and society. After all you can’t impose austerity on the imagination!
This international conference is intended to act as a platform for sharing ideas and concepts about contemporary design research in this age of austerity. Contributors are invited to submit research that addresses contemporary approaches to design research. The conference is open to research through, for and into design.
The conference coincides with Dublin Design Week and I do hope you can join us for this major event.

Overpopulation means that the population of a place is too high. Specifically, there are too many organisms of a certain species in a habitat, so the number of organisms living there is larger than the carrying capacity of the habitat.
The habitat cannot support these numbers over time without hurting itself. Population essay in simple english.

adding up the field sizes in the physical model. For example, each record in the PERSON table is 400 bytes long. With SQL Server 7.0, you need to add at least 10 bytes per record to account for administrative overhead. You can plug the numbers into this little formula:
(RecSizeBytes * EstNoRecs) / BlockSize = Num_Blocks_Storage
Using a block size of 8096 bytes for SQL Server 7.0 and rounding up to the next integer value (SQL Server doesn't let you store part of a record on a block), you'll need 36 blocks to store the data in the PERSON table. To give you a starting point for figuring out how much disk space you'll need (and whether you want to use file groups or striped sets to enhance performance), perform the following calculations for each table. To get the total space requirements for the user data, add the number of blocks needed for each table in the physical model. Add 10 percent of this total number of blocks for the system and database catalogs (start with a minimum of 25MB), and add 35 percent of the user data size for the transaction log. Then add space for indexes, various log files, snapshot and archive relations, and database backup files. This additional space might be as little as 20 percent of the user data size, or as much as 100 percent, depending on how many indexes you want to create, how many snapshot and archive relations you plan to set up, and so on. The final value will help you select the best physical storage devices and estimate the cost of both immediate and long-term data storage. By knowing roughly how much user data you'll have, you can also better estimate the type and cost of your backup and recovery schemes.

More than 50 million people in the United States speak Spanish. Around the world, there are over 400 million Spanish speakers. As a result, no matter what kind of career you would like to pursue, most businesses, government agencies, and non-profit organizations welcome applicants who are competent in Spanish.
Spanish majors and minors at SUU gain proficiency in reading, writing, and speaking Spanish. They also learn about Hispanic peoples and their cultures through a wide variety of upper division courses, and gain knowledge and skills that can help them succeed in many different career fields.
Are you already majoring in another area? Consider a double major in Spanish. Employers and graduate schools see applicants with double majors as doubly prepared!
Are you already fluent in Spanish? If so, having a major or minor in Spanish on your transcript is proof of your skills and abilities.
Are you planning to go to graduate school, medical school, or law school? Studying Spanish will help you prepare! The Modern Language Association (MLA) states:
Did you know that studying a second language can improve your skills and grades in math and English and can improve entrance exam scores -- SATs, ACTs, GREs, MCATs, and LSATs? Research has shown that math and verbal SAT scores climb higher with each additional year of foreign language study, which means that the longer you study a foreign language, the stronger your skills become to succeed in school. Studying a foreign language can improve your analytic and interpretive capacities.
Are you interested in studying abroad? Virtually all courses taken at approved programs in Spanish speaking countries will apply to your Spanish major or minor at SUU.
The Spanish faculty at SUU hold doctorate degrees in varied areas of Hispanic Studies, such as linguistics, literature, film, and second language acquisition. We encourage you peruse their individual pages, or stop by their offices in the General Classrooms building to chat further about the advantages of studying Spanish.

The LLT Lab empirically investigates the argument structures found in a sample of decisions from the Board of Veterans Appeals and the U.S. Court of Appeals for Veterans Claims in the United States. This is one product of the Lab’s Veterans Claims Project (“VCP”), which begins in 2016. When it comes to analyzing argument and reasoning patterns in such decisions, traditional formal logic generally proves inadequate because it can represent very little of the natural language patterns found in actual decisions, and it does not provide useful heuristics for interpreting actual sentences in text as elements of argument structures. The Lab addresses both of these problems by proceeding from actual texts to develop patterns that can explain all or most of the text.
You can access our analyses of reasoning passages in particular cases by navigating through the rule tree for proving service connection for a disability. The rule tree analyzes the proof for service connection into its component parts, and focuses in particular on proving that posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is connected to the veteran’s service.

The short answer is “no.” But there is a long answer.
Sports drinks contain a fairly large amount of energy—a little more than half as many calories as the average soft drink. And, like soft drinks, sports drinks get most of their calories from sugar. These facts inspire many label-conscious runners to avoid using sports drinks during training. They see their workouts as opportunities to burn a lot of calories, and they don’t want to “counteract” that effect by taking in a lot of calories at the same time.
This is a reasonable way to think, but it’s mistaken, for more than one reason. First, research has shown that when people consume carbohydrate (such as the carbs in sports drinks) during exercise, they eat less during the remainder of the day. For example, at study conducted at Colorado State University found that when subjects consumed no carbohydrate during a workout, they ate 777 calories at their next meal. But when they took in 45 grams of carbs during a workout, they ate only 683 calories in their next meal. What’s more, the subjects consumed fewer total calories—including workout carbs—during the day in which they exercised with carbs than they did during the day when they exercised without carbs.
A second reason not to avoid using a sports dring during your runs simply because of the calories they contain is that the carbs in sports drinks enable you to run faster and longer, so you burn more calories in you workouts. Runners choose their pace by perception of effort. Consuming carbs during runs reduces perceived effort, so that the runner automatically runs faster at his or her chosen effort level. Studies have shown that athletes self-selected faster workout speeds when they consume carbs during exercise and thus burn more calories in a given time period.
Some runners have begun to avoid sports drinks during exercise not because of weight concerns but for a different reason. When carbs are consumed during exercise, the muscles burn less fat. Some runners fear that relying on sports drinks habitually during workouts will artificially limit the general increases in muscular fat-burning capacity that occur in training. This could conceivably limit endurance and hamper performance in longer races such as marathons.
RELATED: Sports Drinks vs. Water
Again, while such reasoning can’t be faulted, it is unfounded. This was proven in a 2011 study performed at the Australian Institute of Sport. Researchers divided a pool of trained cyclists and triathletes into separate groups and had each of them go through a 28-day block of training, with one group consuming carbs during every workout and the other group abstaining from carbohydrate intake during workouts. Performance was measured before and at the end of the training block in a cycling time trial. The researchers found that performance improved equally—7 percent on average—in both groups despite greater increases in fat-burning capacity in the no-carb group.
While this short-term study found that training with carbohydrate improved simulated race performance by the same amount as training without carbohydrate, literally scores of studies have found that consuming carbohydrate in races and time trials significantly enhances performance compared to competing without carbs. This fact points to one more reason not to avoid using sports drinks in training. Unless you don’t care about your finish time, you’re definitely going to use a sports drink during your races. Naturally, you’re not going to do anything during a race that you haven’t practiced in training. The more often you use a sports drink during training, the more comfortable you will be doing the same in races.
RELATED: Energy Drinks vs. Sports Drinks
To summarize, there are no fewer than four reasons to go ahead and use a sports drink in your training runs “despite” the calories it contains:
1. It will reduce the amount you eat the rest of the day.
2. It will make you run faster and burn more calories.
3. It will not impede improvements in your fitness by limiting your muscles’ fat-burning capacity.
4. It will give you valuable practice for using a sports drinks during races, which is essential.
