{"text": "Refinery is the newest font in the Evanston Collection of square typefaces. With a similar capital structure to Tavern and Alehouse, Refinery includes both lowercase and small caps, making it an ideal typeface for paragraph text settings. It also comes in a wide array of weights and widths, with 85 font files in total.\nDESIGN Refinery has it’s roots in early 20th century signage and saloon typography, but has been modernized - even future-ized - to fit the 21st century digital landscape. The design was aimed at providing a type family that could work in many modern design fields, from sports, tech and military to gaming, HUD, virtual reality and augmented reality.\nENGINEERING Essentially. Refinery is a simple mono-linear square design has been expertly refined into an easy-reading sans serif typeface. It was designed to be used in both display and text settings. From hairline to black in ultra-narrow or extended, the wide array of weight and width options makes it easy to find the right font for each text need.\nSPECS Refinery not only includes 85 font files, but each one include a wide array of Opentype Extras that allow even further customization.\n• Stylistic Alternatives: Letters A W Y have a styling variation that rounds the pointed apex into a square curve. The S and 2 variation straightens the spine, making all curves in the alphabet read as 90º angles.\n• Small Capitals: A shortened version of the capitals for alternate header settings.\n• Titling Alternatives: In this typeface, this feature turns on lifted small caps. Take the small capitals, raise them to level with capitals and underline at the baseline. When multiple lowercase or small capital letters are typed in a row, the underlines connect, creating unique ligatures.\n• Figures: There are different figure styles for different text needs. Options include, proportional lining, tabular lining (for math), old style and small capitals.\n• Discretionary Ligatures: A little funk to this otherwise serious typeface. Letters with a long baseline or cap height stem - F, L, T - get elongated to hug a small capital vowel. Other ligatures include Co. and No.\n• Catchwords: These are common words that bring emphasis to a design. In English these words include ‘and’ ‘as’ ‘by’ ‘in’ ‘of’ ‘the’ ‘to’ ‘when’, among others. Refinery also includes multilingual catchwords of ‘el’ ‘la’ ‘oder’ ‘go’ ‘para’ ‘pour’ ‘und’ ‘y’, among others. For the full list, please check out the specimen images.\nEXTRAS To round the typeface off, a set of over 150 ornaments, icons, arrows, patterns and line breaks is included to provide complimentary graphics.

{"text": "Halloween Tutorial: Pixel-Art with Andrew Scaife\nHalloween is getting closer and closer. Lucky for us that we recently stumbled across Andrew Scaife’s fantastic pixel artworks of famous Horror-TV-Shows like “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” and “The Walking Dead”. That’s why we gave him a call and asked him if he could show us how to create such fantastic LucasArts-style pixel images. And he said “Yes!” Enjoy this step-by-step tutorial and make sure to check Andrew’s blog for more of his wonderful work!\nThis picture is part of an ongoing project called Point & Click, where I take episodes of my favourite TV shows and re-imagine them as classic LucasArts point and click adventure games, like Monkey Island. I use the large Wacom Intuos Pen & Touch and create in Photoshop CC.\nStep 1: Setting up the canvas & rough layout\nI use reference pictures from the episode to help me design the layout and colour pallet.\nThe Photoshop canvas I set up is tiny; just 320x200 pixels – the same resolution used in old Amiga games. When the canvas is this small, everything looks pixelated.\nI use the Pencil tool in Photoshop, which enables me to select individual pixels without any blurring at the edges.\nI enable the pressure sensitivity of the tablet so I can be ‘looser’ when roughing out the layout, until I’m happy with the perspective and where everything needs to be.\nStep 2: Filling the shapes\nI deselect the pressure sensitivity and fill in all the shapes with colour. Each one in its own layer, starting with the sky at the back, then the tree line, buildings etc., eventually working my way to the front of the picture.\nStep 3: Rendering each layer\nI set up a new layer on top of each of the shapes. Then right click on the layer in Photoshop and set it as a clipping mask. This means that anything I draw in that layer will only show within the boundaries of the shape underneath it. This basically means I no longer need to worry about colouring in over the edges.\nI enable the pressure sensitivity and then paint in each shape. For the trees, I started with a darker green and shaded the tones of the branches. I did this quite quickly; it didn’t need to be too precise. I then went a bit darker and reduced the pencil size, adding more detail each time. Finally, I picked out the highlights with a lighter green following the same process.\nStep 4: Adding the characters\nI always think this step is going to be the quickest and always ends up taking the longest.\nThe characters are roughed in the same way as the background. I then set up a layer behind them and draw in a bright blue colour. This makes them easier to see against the background.\nI deselect the pressure sensitivity (this needs to be precise). There’s lots of trial and error and not many pixels to use as I try to make the faces and body shapes work.\nStep 5: Shading the characters and adding final details\nI set up clipping masks over the character layer, but set it to Multiply and change the opacity to around 30%. Using black, I add shadows. I then set up another layer, set to Overlay at a 50% opacity and use white to add highlights. The items in the inventory at the bottom are added in this same way.\nFor the wire fence here, I picked a mid-grey tone and drew in the criss-cross lines. I then lowered the layer opacity to 20%, set up a clipping mask and shaded the fence in relation to what was behind it; darker in front of the sky, lighter in front of the trees.\nAfter flattening the image, I changed the image size and made sure that ‘Nearest Neighbour (hard edges)’ was selected. This made sure all the pixelated edges stayed, no matter how big I made the final image.\nAnd that’s all folks – Happy Halloween!\nFor more free tutorials and eBooks from skilled artists visit www.wacom.com/createmore.\nAndrew Scaife is an UK based writer/illustrator/comic-drawer.

{"text": "General agreement among researchers suggests that poor seating posture may predispose individuals to developing low back pain. A variety of methods such as ergonomically designed chairs have been developed to assist people to maintain good posture and preserve the ‘natural’ lumbar curve. The aim of this study was to compare lumbar curvature on an ergonomically designed kneeling chair (EKC) with that on a standard computer chair (SCC), with reference to the standing lumbar curvature. The study used a repeated measures, within-subjects design. A convenience sample of twenty participants was recruited aged 18–35 (9 male and 11 female). Lumbar curvature was measured using the ‘Middlesbrough Integrated Assessment System’ (MIDAS) postural assessment tool in three different postures; sitting on a SCC, sitting on an EKC set at +20° inclination and standing as the reference measurement. Results were analysed by a repeated measures oneway ANOVA (1 factor) with 3 levels followed by the Bonferroni post hoc test. The results showed a statistically significant difference between standing lumbar curvature and lumbar curvature produced by both of the chairs (p<0.05). There was also a statistically significant difference between the two seated positions (p<0.05). This study suggests that ergonomically designed kneeling chairs set at +20° inclination do maintain standing lumbar curvature to a greater extent than sitting on a standard computer chair with an overall mean difference of 7.633°.

{"text": "As the temperature drops, it’s time to embrace the latest women’s fashion trends for Fall 2021.

Whether you’re looking for cozy layers for your daily commute or elegant options for a night out, we’ve rounded up the must-have fashion trends you need in your wardrobe this fall.\nThe Trending Fall Colors\nAs the leaves change and the brisk air sets in, so too does the color palette of our wardrobes. This year, the trending fall colors are all about warm tones and earthy hues that evoke feelings of comfort and coziness.\nRich Reds and Oranges\nWhen we think of fall, these bold colors immediately come to mind. This season, we’re seeing deep burgundies, burnt oranges, and rust tones dominating runways and street style alike. These fiery shades are perfect for adding a pop of warmth to any outfit.\nMuted Greens and Blues\nIf you’re looking for something a bit more subtle, consider incorporating muted greens and blues into your wardrobe. Sage and olive greens are particularly popular this year, while dusty blues and navy offer a sophisticated alternative to traditional neutrals.\nNeutral Beiges and Browns\nPerhaps the most classic fall color palette of them all, neutral beiges and browns are a timeless choice for autumn. This year, we’re seeing an emphasis on rich, chocolatey browns and creamy, camel-colored beiges, which pair perfectly with cooler weather fabrics like wool and cashmere.\nThe Cozy Cardigan\nFall is finally here and it’s the perfect time to start incorporating cozy cardigans into your wardrobe.

They come in a variety of styles and materials to choose from such as suede, leather or velvet. Not only will they keep you warm, but they’ll add sophistication to your outfit effortlessly.\n2. Over-The-Knee Boots\nIf you’re looking for a statement footwear, then over-the-knee boots are the perfect choice. Not only will they keep your legs extremely warm but they also elongate them and make any outfit look chicer. Coming in different styles, from flat to heeled, they’re perfect for dressing down with skinny jeans or up with a mini skirt. You can’t go wrong with this style.\n3. Combat Boots\nCombat boots are a great option for those who want to give off a more edgy vibe in their look.

Keeping your boots clean and protecting them from rain and snow may not seem like a big deal, but it can extend the life and appearance of them. Pick up a shoe care kit to make sure they last for seasons to come and let’s step into fall in style!\nDress Like a Boss\nLooking professional and fashionable in the office is a must, especially during the fall season. Here are some fall prints and styles that are most fashionable in the office and how to rock them:\nPlaid is always a classic choice for fall and can be worn in so many ways.

You can wear a tweed jacket with a black pencil skirt and heels or with a pair of dark jeans and loafers for a business casual look.\nIt’s a Wrap! Scarf and Accessory Trends\nAs leaves start to fall, it’s time to wrap yourself up in warm and cozy accessories. Scarves are a great way to add a touch of style to an outfit while keeping yourself warm during the chilly weather. Here are some of the best scarf and accessory trends to incorporate into your fall wardrobe:\n1. Blanket Scarves\nNothing says fall quite like a cozy blanket scarf. These oversized scarves with their bold patterns and colors are perfect for wrapping up on colder days. They can be worn in a variety of ways, from draped over the shoulders to wrapped around the neck.\n2. Embellished Scarves\nIf you’re looking to add some extra sparkle to your fall wardrobe, try an embellished scarf. These scarves feature added details like sequins, beads, or embroidery, which can take your outfit to the next level. Pair with a simple sweater or jeans to let the scarf shine.\nBandanas have made a comeback in recent years and are a great addition to any fall outfit. Whether tied around the neck or worn as a headband, this small accessory can add a pop of color or pattern to an outfit. They’re also a great alternative to a full-sized scarf on milder days.\n4. Statement Jewelry\nAccessories aren’t just limited to scarves. Statement jewelry can also be a great way to add some personality to your fall wardrobe. Look for bold earrings or necklaces in warm tones like gold or bronze to complement your seasonal look.\n5. Belted Scarves\nTired of the same old ways of wearing your scarf? Try belting it instead. This trend is all about incorporating your scarf into your outfit and less about just keeping warm. Belting your scarf is a great way to accentuate your waist, and also create a unique and stylish look.\nPants or Skirts? Why Not Both\nAs fall approaches, it’s time to start thinking about updating your wardrobe for the chillier weather. While summer fashion is all about effortless dresses and sandals, fall and winter fashion present a fun opportunity to experiment with layers, textures, and patterns. This season, take a cue from the runway and mix things up with unexpected combinations of pants and skirts. Whether you prefer sleek trousers or flowy skirts, there’s a way to incorporate both into your fall wardrobe.\nPants Trends for Fall\nWhen it comes to pants, you can’t go wrong with classic cuts and daring patterns. Straight-leg trousers in neutral tones like black, navy, and camel are a perennial favorite and can easily be dressed up or down. For a more daring look, try a pair of wide-leg plaid pants paired with a tucked-in blouse. Plaid is a popular pattern this season, and it adds a touch of sophistication to any outfit. Leather pants are another trend to consider this fall. They’re edgy and versatile, and can be paired with everything from a chunky knit sweater to a printed blouse.\nSkirt Trends for Fall\nFor those who prefer skirts, the options are just as exciting. Classic A-line skirts in corduroy or wool are perfect for fall, and can be paired with a turtleneck and knee-high boots for a cozy and on-trend look. Midi skirts in plaid or houndstooth are also a popular choice for fall. Pair them with a denim or leather jacket for an effortless and chic look. For a more daring option, try a leather skirt in a bold color like red or mustard. It’s unexpected and will add a pop of color to any fall outfit.\nWhy Not Both?\n- One way to wear both pants and skirts is to layer them. For example, pair a midi skirt with straight-leg pants and a chunky sweater for a cozy and textured look.\n- Another way to mix up your wardrobe is to pair unexpected patterns together. Try mixing plaid pants with a printed skirt, or a floral top with a leather skirt.\n- Don’t be afraid to mix different textures as well: pair a tweed blazer with a satin midi skirt, or a fuzzy sweater with corduroy pants.\n- Lastly, consider adding a pair of statement shoes to pull the whole outfit together. This could mean anything from a pair of chunky platform boots to a sleek pair of kitten heels.\nFrequently Asked Questions\n|Q: What are the must-have fashion trends this fall?||A: The must-have fashion trends for women this fall include oversized coats, sweater vests, leather pants, plaid prints, and chunky boots.|\n|Q: Where can I buy these fall fashion trends?||A: You can buy these fall fashion trends at popular stores like Zara, H&M, Nordstrom, and ASOS, as well as many online retailers.|\n|Q: Can these fall fashion trends be worn for different occasions?||A: Yes, these fall fashion trends can be dressed up or down depending on the occasion.

{"text": "Dam battery sites mapped\nResearchers saw small dams in rural Australia could function as unconventional “batteries”.\nIn Arras, France, the Goudemand apartment building uses a flat rooftop pool to store water. The water is channelled to five basement tanks, with a total capacity of around 50,000 litres.\nWhen released, this water powers a turbine, generating approximately 3.5 kilowatt-hours of electricity, equivalent to several hours of energy consumption in an average Australian household.\nSolar and wind energy are employed to replenish the rooftop reservoir when weather conditions allow.\nThe building is an example of a micro-pumped-hydro energy storage system, this time using a rooftop as a reservoir. The primary purpose is to reduce the load on the building’s lithium batteries.\nRecent economic analysis suggests that such micro-pumped-hydro systems could be built at water reservoirs.\nExperts say that thousands of potential reservoirs are scattered across rural Australia, but they must meet specific criteria.\nThey must either exist in pairs or be linked with a river to enable water flow for energy generation and storage. Additionally, suitable reservoirs need a minimum slope of 17 per cent between them to drive turbines efficiently and should be within 500 metres of each other to remain practical and cost-effective.\nA team of engineers from UNSW led by Dr Nicholas Gilmore recently conducted a comprehensive mapping exercise to identify suitable reservoir pairs.\nThey concluded that there are over 30,000 potential reservoirs that meet these criteria, with an average energy storage capacity of approximately 30 kilowatt-hours.\nAlthough practical constraints may reduce this number, many viable candidates remain.\nTo keep costs down and compete with traditional batteries, the researchers designed a simplified system using a single pipe connecting two water bodies and a reversible pump-generator.\nThis system, already implemented in a Belgian prototype, is cost-effective on a per-kilowatt-hour basis compared to lithium batteries.\nWhile household batteries excel in providing immediate power and handling higher loads, micro-pumped-hydro systems offer the advantage of storing substantial amounts of energy, extending the usability of solar power over extended periods.\nHowever, these systems are not without limitations. Droughts can restrict the amount of water and, consequently, power that these systems can store.\nMeanwhile, other researchers, such as Professor Andrew Blakers from the Australian National University, have identified potential sites for paired reservoirs in Australia, some with gigawatt-hours of storage capacity.\nThese sites could significantly contribute to the country's energy storage needs, surpassing them by up to 300 times.\nProjects like converting old mine pits into pumped hydro storage dams show promise, offering free and substantial water reservoirs.\nThe Australian Energy Market Operator (AEMO) has identified energy storage as a top priority in the coming decade, emphasising the role of large-scale pumped hydro in grid stability.", "label": "Yes"}

{"text": "International Science Index\nFailure Cases Analysis in Petrochemical Industry\nIn recent years, the failure accidents in petrochemical industry have been frequent, and have posed great security problems in personnel and property. The improvement of petrochemical safety is highly requested in order to prevent re-occurrence of severe accident. This study focuses on surveying the failure cases occurred in petrochemical field, which were extracted from journals of engineering failure, including engineering failure analysis and case studies in engineering failure analysis. The relation of failure mode, failure mechanism, type of components, and type of materials was analyzed in this study. And the analytical results showed that failures occurred more frequently in vessels and piping among the petrochemical equipment. Moreover, equipment made of carbon steel and stainless steel accounts for the majority of failures compared to other materials. This may be related to the application of the equipment and the performance of the material. In addition, corrosion failures were the largest in number of occurrence in the failure of petrochemical equipment, in which stress corrosion cracking accounts for a large proportion. This may have a lot to do with the service environment of the petrochemical equipment. Therefore, it can be concluded that the corrosion prevention of petrochemical equipment is particularly important.\nCollapse Load Analysis of Reinforced Concrete Pile Group in Liquefying Soils under Lateral Loading\nThe ultimate load analysis of RC pile groups has assumed a lot of significance under liquefying soil conditions, especially due to post-earthquake studies of 1964 Niigata, 1995 Kobe and 2001 Bhuj earthquakes. The present study reports the results of numerical simulations on pile groups subjected to monotonically increasing lateral loads under design amounts of pile axial loading. The soil liquefaction has been considered through the non-linear p-y relationship of the soil springs, which can vary along the depth/length of the pile. This variation again is related to the liquefaction potential of the site and the magnitude of the seismic shaking. As the piles in the group can reach their extreme deflections and rotations during increased amounts of lateral loading, a precise modeling of the inelastic behavior of the pile cross-section is done, considering the complete stress-strain behavior of concrete, with and without confinement, and reinforcing steel, including the strain-hardening portion. The possibility of the inelastic buckling of the individual piles is considered in the overall collapse modes. The model is analysed using Riks analysis in finite element software to check the post buckling behavior and plastic collapse of piles. The results confirm the kinds of failure modes predicted by centrifuge test results reported by researchers on pile group, although the pile material used is significantly different from that of the simulation model. The extension of the present work promises an important contribution to the design codes for pile groups in liquefying soils.\nEvaluation for Punching Shear Strength of Slab-Column Connections with Ultra High Performance Fiber-Reinforced Concrete Overlay\nThis paper presents the test results on 5 slab-column connection specimens with Ultra High Performance Fiber-Reinforced Concrete (UHPFRC) overlay including 1 control specimen to investigate retrofitting effect of UHPFRC overlay on the punching shear capacity. The test parameters were the thickness of the UHPFRC overlay and the amount of steel re-bars in it. All specimens failed in punching shear mode with abrupt failure aspect. The test results showed that by adding a thin layer of UHPFRC over the Reinforced Concrete (RC) substrates, considerable increases in global punching shear resistance up to 82% and structural rigidity were achieved. Furthermore, based on the cracking patterns the composite systems appeared to be governed by two failure modes: 1) diagonal shear failure in RC section and 2) debonding failure at the interface.\nEvaluation of Wind Fragility for Set Anchor Used in Sign Structure in Korea\nRecently, damage to domestic facilities by strong winds and typhoons are growing. Therefore, this study focused on sign structure among various vulnerable facilities. The evaluation of the wind fragility was carried out considering the destruction of the anchor, which is one of the various failure modes of the sign structure. The performance evaluation of the anchor was carried out to derive the wind fragility. Two parameters were set and four anchor types were selected to perform the pull-out and shear tests. The resistance capacity was estimated based on the experimental results. Wind loads were estimated using Monte Carlo simulation method. Based on these results, we derived the wind fragility according to anchor type and wind exposure category. Finally, the evaluation of the wind fragility was performed according to the experimental parameters such as anchor length and anchor diameter. This study shows that the depth of anchor was more significant for the safety of structure compare to diameter of anchor.\nFailure Analysis and Fatigue Life Estimation of a Shaft of a Rotary Draw Bending Machine\nHuman consumption of the Earth's resources increases the need for a sustainable development as an important ecological, social, and economic theme. Re-engineering of machine tools, in terms of design and failure analysis, is defined as steps performed on an obsolete machine to return it to a new machine with the warranty that matches the customer requirement. To understand the future fatigue behavior of the used machine components, it is important to investigate the possible causes of machine parts failure through design, surface, and material inspections. In this study, the failure modes of the shaft of the rotary draw bending machine are inspected. Furthermore, stress and deflection analysis of the shaft subjected to combined torsion and bending loads are carried out by an analytical method and compared with a finite element analysis method. The theoretical fatigue strength, correction factors, and fatigue life sustained by the shaft before damaged are estimated by creating a stress-cycle (S-N) diagram. In conclusion, it is seen that the shaft can work in the second life, but it needs some surface treatments to increase the reliability and fatigue life.\nExperimental Investigation on Cold-Formed Steel Foamed Concrete Composite Wall under Compression\nA series of tests on cold-formed steel foamed concrete (CSFC) composite walls subjected to axial load were proposed. The primary purpose of the experiments was to study the mechanical behavior and identify the failure modes of CSFC composite walls. Two main factors were considered in this study: 1) specimen with pouring foamed concrete or without and 2) different foamed concrete density ranks (corresponding to different foamed concrete strength). The interior space between two pieces of straw board of the specimen W-2 and W-3 were poured foamed concrete, and the specimen W-1 does not have foamed concrete core. The foamed concrete density rank of the specimen W-2 was A05 grade, and that of the specimen W-3 was A07 grade. Results showed that the failure mode of CSFC composite wall without foamed concrete was distortional buckling of cold-formed steel (CFS) column, and that poured foamed concrete includes the local crushing of foamed concrete and local buckling of CFS column, but the former prior to the later. Compared with CSFC composite wall without foamed concrete, the ultimate bearing capacity of spec imens poured A05 grade and A07 grade foamed concrete increased 1.6 times and 2.2 times respectively, and specimen poured foamed concrete had a low vertical deformation. According to these results, the simplified calculation formula for the CSFC wall subjected to axial load was proposed, and the calculated results from this formula are in very good agreement with the test results.\nQuasi-Static Analysis of End Plate Beam-to-Column Connections\nThis paper presents a method for modelling and analysing end plate beam-to-column connections to obtain the quasi-static behaviour using non-linear dynamic explicit integration. In addition to its importance to study the static behaviour of a structural member, quasi-static behaviour is largely needed to be compared with the dynamic behaviour of such members in order to investigate the dynamic effect by proposing dynamic increase factors (DIFs). The beam-to-column bolted connections contain various contact surfaces at which the implicit procedure may have difficulties converging, resulting in a large number of iterations. Contrary, explicit procedure could deal effectively with complex contacts without converging problems. Hence, finite element modelling using ABAQUS/explicit is used in this study to address the dynamic effect may be produced using explicit procedure. Also, the effect of loading rate and mass scaling are discussed to investigate their effect on the time of analysis. The results show that the explicit procedure is valuable to model the end plate beam-to-column connections in terms of failure mode, load-displacement relationships. Also, it is concluded that loading rate and mass scaling should be carefully selected to avoid the dynamic effect in the solution.\nEvaluation of Applicability of High Strength Stirrup for Prestressed Concrete Members\nRecently, the use of high-strength materials is increasing as the construction of large structures and high-rise structures increases. This paper presents an analysis of the shear behavior of prestressed concrete members with various types of materials by simulating a finite element (FE) analysis. The analytical results indicated that the shear strength and shear failure mode were strongly influenced by not only the shear reinforcement ratio but also the yield strength of shear reinforcement and the compressive strength of concrete. Though the yield strength of shear reinforcement increased the shear strength of prestressed concrete members, there was a limit to the increase in strength because of the change of shear failure modes. According to the results of FE analysis on various parameters, the maximum yield strength of the steel stirrup that can be applied to prestressed concrete members was about 860 MPa.\nCritical Analysis of Heat Exchanger Cycle for its Maintainability Using Failure Modes and Effect Analysis and Pareto Analysis\nThe Failure Modes and Effect Analysis (FMEA) is an efficient evaluation technique to identify potential failures in products, processes, and services. FMEA is designed to identify and prioritize failure modes. It proves to be a useful method for identifying and correcting possible failures at its earliest possible level so that one can avoid consequences of poor performance. In this paper, FMEA tool is used in detection of failures of various components of heat exchanger cycle and to identify critical failures of the components which may hamper the system’s performance. Further, a detailed Pareto analysis is done to find out the most critical components of the cycle, the causes of its failures, and possible recommended actions. This paper can be used as a checklist which will help in maintainability of the system.\nAnalysis of Flexural Behavior of Wood-Concrete Beams\nThis study presents an overview of the work carried out by the use of wood waste as coarse aggregate in mortar. The paper describes experimental and numerical investigations carried on pervious concrete made of wood chips and also sheds lights on the mechanical properties of this new product. The properties of pervious wood-concrete such as strength, elastic modulus, and failure modes are compared and evaluated. The characterization procedure of the mechanical properties of wood waste ash are presented and discussed. The numerical and tested load–deflection response results are compared. It was observed that the numerical results are in good agreement with the experimental results.\nThermal Effect on Wave Interaction in Composite Structures\nThere exist a wide range of failure modes in composite\nstructures due to the increased usage of the structures especially in\naerospace industry. Moreover, temperature dependent wave response\nof composite and layered structures have been continuously studied,\nthough still limited, in the last decade mainly due to the broad\noperating temperature range of aerospace structures. A wave finite\nelement (WFE) and finite element (FE) based computational method\nis presented by which the temperature dependent wave dispersion\ncharacteristics and interaction phenomenon in composite structures\ncan be predicted. Initially, the temperature dependent mechanical\nproperties of the panel in the range of -100 ◦C to 150 ◦C are\nmeasured experimentally using the Thermal Mechanical Analysis\n(TMA). Temperature dependent wave dispersion characteristics of\neach waveguide of the structural system, which is discretized as a\nsystem of a number of waveguides coupled by a coupling element, is\ncalculated using the WFE approach. The wave scattering properties,\nas a function of temperature, is determined by coupling the WFE\nwave characteristics models of the waveguides with the full FE\nmodelling of the coupling element on which defect is included.\nNumerical case studies are exhibited for two waveguides coupled\nthrough a coupling element.\nNonlinear Finite Element Analysis of Optimally Designed Steel Angelina™ Beams\nWeb-expanded steel beams provide an easy and economical solution for the systems having longer structural members. The main goal of manufacturing these beams is to increase the moment of inertia and section modulus, which results in greater strength and rigidity. Until recently, there were two common types of open web-expanded beams: with hexagonal openings, also called castellated beams, and beams with circular openings referred to as cellular beams, until the generation of sinusoidal web-expanded beams. In the present research, the optimum design of a new generation beams, namely sinusoidal web-expanded beams, will be carried out and the design results will be compared with castellated and cellular beam solutions. Thanks to a reduced fabrication process and substantial material savings, the web-expanded beam with sinusoidal holes (Angelina™ Beam) meets the economic requirements of steel design problems while ensuring optimum safety. The objective of this research is to carry out non-linear finite element analysis (FEA) of the web-expanded beam with sinusoidal holes. The FE method has been used to predict their entire response to increasing values of external loading until they lose their load carrying capacity. FE model of each specimen that is utilized in the experimental studies is carried out. These models are used to simulate the experimental work to verify of test results and to investigate the non-linear behavior of failure modes such as web-post buckling, shear buckling and vierendeel bending of beams.\nFailure Modes and Bearing Capacity Estimation for Strip Foundations in C-ɸ Soils: A Numerical Study\nIn this study, typical c-ɸ soils subjected to loadings were assessed with a view to understand the general stress distribution and settlement behaviour of the soils under drained conditions. Numerical estimations of the non-dimensional bearing capacity factors, Nq and Nγ for varied angles of friction in the soil mass were obtained using PLAXIS. Ultimate bearing capacity values over a Ф range of 0-30 degrees were also computed and compared with analytical results obtained from the traditional simplified uncoupled approach of Terzaghi and Meyerhof. Results from the numerical study agree well with theoretical findings.\nDiagonal Crack Width of RC Members with High Strength Materials\nThis paper presents an analysis of the diagonal crack widths of RC members with various types of materials by simulating a compatibility-aided truss model. The analytical results indicated that the diagonal crack width was influenced by not only the shear reinforcement ratio but also the yield strength of shear reinforcement and the compressive strength of concrete. The yield strength of shear reinforcement and the compressive strength of concrete decreased the diagonal shear crack width of RC members for the same shear force because of the change of shear failure modes. However, regarding the maximum shear crack width at shear failure, the shear crack width of the beam with high strength materials was greater than that of the beam with normal strength materials.\nOn the Evaluation of Critical Lateral-Torsional Buckling Loads of Monosymmetric Beam-Columns\nBeam-column elements are defined as structural members subjected to a combination of axial and bending forces. Lateral torsional buckling is one of the major failure modes in which beam-columns that are bent about its strong axis may buckle out of the plane by deflecting laterally and twisting. This study presents a compact closed-form equation that it can be used for calculating critical lateral torsional-buckling load of beam-columns with monosymmetric sections in the presence of a known axial load. Lateral-torsional buckling behavior of beam-columns subjected to constant axial force and various transverse load cases are investigated by using Ritz method in order to establish proposed equation. Lateral-torsional buckling loads calculated by presented formula are compared to finite element model results. ABAQUS software is utilized to generate finite element models of beam-columns. It is found out that lateral-torsional buckling load of beam-columns with monosymmetric sections can be determined by proposed equation and can be safely used in design.\nNumerical Simulation of Punching Shear of Flat Plates with Low Reinforcement\nPunching shear failure is usually the governing failure mode of flat plate structures. Punching failure is brittle in nature which induces more vulnerability to this type of structure. In the present study, a 3D finite element model of a flat plate with low reinforcement ratio and without any transverse reinforcement has been developed. Punching shear stress and the deflection data were obtained on the surface of the flat plate as well as through the thickness of the model from numerical simulations. The obtained data were compared with the experimental results. Variation of punching stress with respect to deflection as obtained from numerical results is found to be in good agreement with the experimental results; the range of variation of punching stress is within 5%. The numerical simulation shows an early and gradual onset of nonlinearity, whereas the same is late and abrupt as observed in the experimental results. The range of variation of punching stress for different slab thicknesses between experimental and numerical results is less than 15%. The developed numerical model is useful to complement available punching test series performed in the past. The results obtained from the numerical model will be helpful for designing retrofitting schemes of flat plates.\nFoundation Retrofitting of Storage Tank under Seismic Load\nThe different seismic behavior of liquid storage tanks rather than conventional structures makes their responses more complicated. Uplifting and excessive settlement due to liquid sloshing are the most frequent damages in cylindrical liquid tanks after shell bucking failure modes. As a matter of fact, uses of liquid storage tanks because of the simple construction on compact layer of soil as a foundation are very conventional, but in some cases need to retrofit are essential. The tank seismic behavior can be improved by modifying dynamic characteristic of tank with verifying seismic loads as well as retrofitting and improving base ground. This paper focuses on a typical steel tank on loose, medium and stiff sandy soil and describes an evaluation of displacement of the tank before and after retrofitting. The Abaqus program was selected for its ability to include shell and structural steel elements, soil-structure interaction, and geometrical nonlinearities and contact type elements. The result shows considerable decreasing in settlement and uplifting in the case of retrofitted tank. Also, by increasing shear strength parameter of soil, the performance of the liquid storage tank under the case of seismic load increased.\nStudy of Debonding of Composite Material from a Deforming Concrete Beam Using Infrared Thermography\nThis article focuses on the cycle of experimental studies of the formation of cracks and debondings in the concrete reinforced with carbon fiber. This research was carried out in Perm National Research Polytechnic University. A series of CFRP-strengthened RC beams was tested to investigate the influence of preload and crack repairing factors on CFRP debonding. IRT was applied to detect the early stage of IC debonding during the laboratory bending tests. It was found that for the beams strengthened under load after crack injecting, СFRP debonding strain is 4-65% lower than for the preliminary strengthened beams. The beams strengthened under the load had a relative area of debonding of 2 times higher than preliminary strengthened beams. The СFRP debonding strain is weakly dependent on the strength of the concrete substrate. For beams with a transverse wrapping anchorage in support sections FRP debonding is not a failure mode.\nDesign for Safety: Safety Consideration in Planning and Design of Airport Airsides\nDuring airport planning and design stages, the major issues of capacity and safety in construction and operation of an airport need to be taken into consideration. The airside of an airport is a major and critical infrastructure that usually consists of runway(s), taxiway system, and apron(s) etc., which have to be designed according to the international standards and recommendations, and local limitations to accommodate the forecasted demands. However, in many cases, airport airsides are suffering from unexpected risks that occurred during airport operations. Therefore, safety risk assessment should be applied in the planning and design of airsides to cope with the probability of risks and their consequences, and to make decisions to reduce the risks to as low as reasonably practicable (ALARP) based on safety risk assessment. This paper presents a combination approach of Failure Modes, Effect, and Criticality Analysis (FMECA), Fuzzy Reasoning Approach (FRA), and Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process (FAHP) to develop a risk analysis model for safety risk assessment. An illustrated example is used to the demonstrate risk assessment process on how the design of an airside in an airport can be analysed by using the proposed safety design risk assessment model.\nSimulating the Interaction between Groundwater and Brittle Failure in Open Pit Slopes\nThis paper presents the results of a study on the\ninfluence of varying percentages of rock bridges along a basal surface\ndefining a biplanar failure mode. A pseudo-coupled-hydromechanical\nbrittle fracture analysis is adopted using the state-of-the-art code\nSlope Model. Model results show that rock bridge failure is strongly\ninfluenced by the incorporation of groundwater pressures. The\nmodels show that groundwater pressure can promote total failure of a\n5% rock bridge along the basal surface. Once the percentage of the\nrock bridges increases to 10 and 15%, although, the rock bridges are\nbroken, full interconnection of the surface defining the basal surface\nof the biplanar mode does not occur. Increased damage is caused\nwhen the rock bridge is located at the daylighting end of the basal\nsurface in proximity to the blast damage zone. As expected, some\ncracking damage is experienced in the blast damage zone, where\nproperties representing a good quality controlled damage blast\ntechnique were assumed. Model results indicate the potential increase\nof permeability towards the blast damage zone.\nBuckling Resistance of GFRP Sandwich Infill Panels with Different Cores under Increased Temperatures\nThis paper presents numerical analysis in terms of\nbuckling resistance of GFRP sandwich infill panels system under the\ninfluence of increased temperature on the foam core. Failure mode\nunder in-plane compression is studied by means of numerical analysis\nwith ABAQUS platform. Parameters considered in this study are\ncontact length and both the type of foam for core and the variation of\nits module elastic under the thermal influence. Increment of\ntemperature is considered in static cases and only applied to core.\nIndeed, it is proven that the effect of temperature alters the mechanical\nproperties of the entire panel system. Moreover, the rises of\ntemperature result in a decrease in strength of the panel. This is due to\nthe polymeric nature of this material. Additionally, the contact length\nalso displays the effect on performance of infill panel. Their\nsignificance factors are based on type of polymer for core. Therefore,\nby comparing difference type of core material, the variation can be\nYoung’s Modulus Variability: Influence on Masonry Vault Behavior\nThis paper presents a methodology for probabilistic\nassessment of bearing capacity and prediction of failure mechanism\nof masonry vaults at the ultimate state with consideration of the\nnatural variability of Young’s modulus of stones. First, the\ncomputation model is explained. The failure mode corresponds to the\nfour-hinge mechanism. Based on this consideration, the study of a\nvault composed of 16 segments is presented. The Young’s modulus of\nthe segments is considered as random variable defined by a mean\nvalue and a coefficient of variation. A relationship linking the vault\nbearing capacity to the voussoirs modulus variation is proposed. The\nmost probable failure mechanisms, in addition to that observed in the\ndeterministic case, are identified for each variability level as well as\ntheir probability of occurrence. The results show that the mechanism\nobserved in the deterministic case has decreasing probability of\noccurrence in terms of variability, while the number of other\nmechanisms and their probability of occurrence increases with the\ncoefficient of variation of Young’s modulus. This means that if a\nsignificant change in the Young’s modulus of the segments is proven,\ntaking it into account in computations becomes mandatory, both for\ndetermining the vault bearing capacity and for predicting its failure\nFEM and Experimental Modal Analysis of Computer Mount\nOver the last few decades, oilfield service rolling\nequipment has significantly increased in weight, primarily because of\nemissions regulations, which require larger/heavier engines, larger\ncooling systems, and emissions after-treatment systems, in some\ncases, etc. Larger engines cause more vibration and shock loads,\nleading to failure of electronics and control systems.\nIf the vibrating frequency of the engine matches the system\nfrequency, high resonance is observed on structural parts and mounts.\nOne such existing automated control equipment system comprising\nwire rope mounts used for mounting computers was designed\napproximately 12 years ago. This includes the use of an industrialgrade\ncomputer to control the system operation. The original\ncomputer had a smaller, lighter enclosure. After a few years, a newer\ncomputer version was introduced, which was 10 lbm heavier. Some\nfailures of internal computer parts have been documented for cases in\nwhich the old mounts were used. Because of the added weight, there\nis a possibility of having the two brackets impact each other under\noff-road conditions, which causes a high shock input to the computer\nparts. This added failure mode requires validating the existing mount\ndesign to suit the new heavy-weight computer.\nThis paper discusses the modal finite element method (FEM)\nanalysis and experimental modal analysis conducted to study the\neffects of vibration on the wire rope mounts and the computer. The\nexisting mount was modelled in ANSYS software, and resultant\nmode shapes and frequencies were obtained. The experimental modal\nanalysis was conducted, and actual frequency responses were\nobserved and recorded.\nResults clearly revealed that at resonance frequency, the brackets\nwere colliding and potentially causing damage to computer parts. To\nsolve this issue, spring mounts of different stiffness were modeled in\nANSYS software, and the resonant frequency was determined.\nIncreasing the stiffness of the system increased the resonant\nfrequency zone away from the frequency window at which the engine\nshowed heavy vibrations or resonance. After multiple iterations in\nANSYS software, the stiffness of the spring mount was finalized,\nwhich was again experimentally validated.\nDevelopment of a Numerical Model to Predict Wear in Grouted Connections for Offshore Wind Turbine Generators\nIn order to better understand the long term\nimplications of the grout wear failure mode in large-diameter plainsided\ngrouted connections, a numerical model has been developed\nand calibrated that can take advantage of existing operational plant\ndata to predict the wear accumulation for the actual load conditions\nexperienced over a given period, thus limiting the requirement for\nexpensive monitoring systems. This model has been derived and\ncalibrated based on site structural condition monitoring (SCM) data\nand supervisory control and data acquisition systems (SCADA) data\nfor two operational wind turbine generator substructures afflicted\nwith this challenge, along with experimentally derived wear rates.\nResistance and Sub-Resistances of RC Beams Subjected to Multiple Failure Modes\nGeometric and mechanical properties all influence the\nresistance of RC structures and may, in certain combination of\nproperty values, increase the risk of a brittle failure of the whole\nThis paper presents a statistical and probabilistic investigation on\nthe resistance of RC beams designed according to Eurocodes 2 and 8,\nand subjected to multiple failure modes, under both the natural\nvariation of material properties and the uncertainty associated with\ncross-section and transverse reinforcement geometry. A full\nprobabilistic model based on JCSS Probabilistic Model Code is\nderived. Different beams are studied through material nonlinear\nanalysis via Monte Carlo simulations. The resistance model is\nconsistent with Eurocode 2. Both a multivariate statistical evaluation\nand the data clustering analysis of outcomes are then performed.\nResults show that the ultimate load behaviour of RC beams\nsubjected to flexural and shear failure modes seems to be mainly\ninfluenced by the combination of the mechanical properties of both\nlongitudinal reinforcement and stirrups, and the tensile strength of\nconcrete, of which the latter appears to affect the overall response of\nthe system in a nonlinear way. The model uncertainty of the\nresistance model used in the analysis plays undoubtedly an important\nrole in interpreting results.\nDynamic Risk Identification Using Fuzzy Failure Mode Effect Analysis in Fabric Process Industries: A Research Article as Management Perspective\nIn and around Erode District, it is estimated that more\nthan 1250 chemical and allied textile processing fabric industries are\naffected, partially closed and shut off for various reasons such as poor\nmanagement, poor supplier performance, lack of planning for\nproductivity, fluctuation of output, poor investment, waste analysis,\nlabor problems, capital/labor ratio, accumulation of stocks, poor\nmaintenance of resources, deficiencies in the quality of fabric, low\ncapacity utilization, age of plant and equipment, high investment and\ninput but low throughput, poor research and development, lack of\nenergy, workers’ fear of loss of jobs, work force mix and work ethic.\nThe main objective of this work is to analyze the existing conditions\nin textile fabric sector, validate the break even of Total Productivity\n(TP), analyze, design and implement fuzzy sets and mathematical\nprogramming for improvement of productivity and quality\ndimensions in the fabric processing industry. It needs to be\ncompatible with the reality of textile and fabric processing industries.\nThe highly risk events from productivity and quality dimension were\nfound by fuzzy systems and results are wrapped up among the textile\nfabric processing industry.\nSeismic Analysis of URM Buildings in S. Africa\nSouth Africa has some regions which are susceptible\nto moderate seismic activity. A peak ground acceleration of between\n0.1g and 0.15g can be expected in the southern parts of the Western\nCape. Unreinforced Masonry (URM) is commonly used as a\nconstruction material for 2 to 5 storey buildings in underprivileged\nareas in and around Cape Town. URM is typically regarded as the\nmaterial most vulnerable to damage when subjected to earthquake\nexcitation. In this study, a three-storey URM building was analysed\nby applying seven earthquake time-histories, which can be expected\nto occur in South Africa using a finite element approach.\nExperimental data was used to calibrate the in- and out-of-plane\nstiffness of the URM. The results indicated that tensile cracking of\nthe in-plane piers was the dominant failure mode. It is concluded that\nURM buildings of this type are at risk of failure especially if\nsufficient ductility is not provided. The results also showed that\nconnection failure must be investigated further.\nDetermining Occurrence in FMEA Using Hazard Function\nFMEA has been used for several years and proved its efficiency for system’s risk analysis due to failures. Risk priority number found in FMEA is used to rank failure modes that may occur in a system. There are some guidelines in the literature to assign the values of FMEA components known as Severity, Occurrence and Detection. This paper propose a method to assign the value for occurrence in more realistic manner representing the state of the system under study rather than depending totally on the experience of the analyst. This method uses the hazard function of a system to determine the value of occurrence depending on the behavior of the hazard being constant, increasing or decreasing.\nAn Optimal Bayesian Maintenance Policy for a Partially Observable System Subject to Two Failure Modes\nIn this paper, we present a new maintenance model\nfor a partially observable system subject to two failure modes,\nnamely a catastrophic failure and a failure due to the system\ndegradation. The system is subject to condition monitoring and the\ndegradation process is described by a hidden Markov model. A\ncost-optimal Bayesian control policy is developed for maintaining\nthe system. The control problem is formulated in the semi-Markov\ndecision process framework. An effective computational algorithm is\ndeveloped, illustrated by a numerical example.\nParameters Affecting the Elasto-Plastic Behavior of Outrigger Braced Walls to Earthquakes\nOutrigger-braced wall systems are commonly used to provide high rise buildings with the required lateral stiffness for wind and earthquake resistance. The existence of outriggers adds to the stiffness and strength of walls as reported by several studies. The effects of different parameters on the elasto-plastic dynamic behavior of outrigger-braced wall systems to earthquakes are investigated in this study. Parameters investigated include outrigger stiffness, concrete strength, and reinforcement arrangement as the main design parameters in wall design. In addition to being significantly affect the wall behavior, such parameters may lead to the change of failure mode and the delay of crack propagation and consequently failure as the wall is excited by earthquakes. Bi-linear stress-strain relation for concrete with limited tensile strength and truss members with bi-linear stress-strain relation for reinforcement were used in the finite element analysis of the problem. The famous earthquake record, El-Centro, 1940 is used in the study. Emphasize was given to the lateral drift, normal stresses and crack pattern as behavior controlling determinants. Results indicated significant effect of the studied parameters such that stiffer outrigger, higher grade concrete and concentrating the reinforcement at wall edges enhance the behavior of the system. Concrete stresses and cracking behavior are too much enhanced while less drift improvements are observed.", "label": "Yes"}

The body always feels well controlled and its pretty refined too with wind and road noise fairly well contained for the most part.\nBut this perky performance doesnt come at bank-breaking cost as the efficient little engine will also deliver more than 55 miles per gallon on average and carbon emissions of 119g/km mean tax bills are low.\nGetting comfortable to drive should be easy for most people as the steering wheel adjusts for reach and rake while the supportive drivers seat is height adjustable.\nAll the key equipment, too, is sensibly and well-laid out and there is plenty of space for front seat passengers.\nIt is tighter in the rear, however, where the raking coupe-style roofline of the SC body means that headroom is limited and leg room is quite tight.\nThe boot, though, is perfectly serviceable for a supermini and would have no problem coping with a weekly shop or babys buggy, for instance, while the 60/40 split folding rear seats also mean that the load space can be extended.\nKit on this range-topper includes stability and cruise control, trip computer, heated wing mirrors, electric windows, air conditioning and a stereo with aux-in socket all of which help to make the SC FR, at around s13,500, pretty good value for money.\nFamilies may be better served looking at the ST estate version, but for young singletons and couples after a relatively cheap car that looks good and is fun to drive this is a real contender.\nMechanical: 105PS, 1,197cc petrol engine driving front wheels via a 5-speed manual transmission\nMax Speed: 118mph\n0-62mph: 9.8 seconds\nCombined mpg: 55.4\nInsurance Group: 12E\nCO2 emissions: 119g/km\nBik rating: 14%\nWarranty: 3 years/60,000 miles", "label": "Yes"}

Check out the list of the most famous fashion designers of all time:\nHe was born and brought up in Mumbai, and was studying to graduate in commerce whilst decided to alter his field and therefore applied for National-Institute-Of-Fashion-Technology New-Delhi. After graduation won the Best Student Award! Launched his label ”Manish-Arora” & started vending in India. Manish symbolized India at HongKong Fashion Week, in the year 2000 and also participated in the first Indian-Fashion-Week held in New-Delhi. In the next year he launched his other label “Fish Fry” , it was shown in six topmost Indian-cities. His future in our space stimulated line at Wills-India-Fashion-Week fascinated many international viewers, in 2007. Arora is an industrious man who’s always on the go! Because of his intellect and beautiful sense of styling, MAC has enrolled him to team up on a new project, the Raj-inspired-beauty-range. He also introduced his jewelry collection in 2012 that was much loved. He’s recognized for his eccentric amalgamation of western&Indian clothing that assemble perfectly!\nA leading name who embarked on the world of fashion in 1980’s. She won the Yuv Rattan Award and is counted among the modern-designers of the country. Best known for her theme collections, and focuses on silhouettes and is always busy in experimentation and introducing new trends! Rina-Dhaka has arranged shows in Paris, London, Singapore, Hong-Kong, New-York, Jakarta & Dubai . Rina’s Singapore shows in 2001 nd 2002 were her major victory! Even “Vogue” and “Elle” (International megazines) have featured ‘er work and fashion-designing is now her family business as her brothers Shantanu and Nikhil also joined her in late 90’s.\nA pattern maker (also referred as pattern master or pattern cutter) drafts the shapes and sizes of a garment's pieces. This may be done manually with paper and measuring tools or by using a CAD computer software program. Another method is to drape fabric directly onto a dress form. The resulting pattern pieces can be constructed to produce the intended design of the garment and required size. Formal training is usually required for working as a pattern marker.\nOver in London, things were distinctly more aggressive: Punk and themes of dissonance could be felt strongly (Brexit, much?), with plenty of tartan, more safety pins than even Johnny Rotten could handle and Vivienne Westwood staging an entire protest about climate change for her show. The strong mood could clearly be felt over the Channel, too, as British designer Sarah Burton's vision for Alexander McQueen this coming season established the poshest and most brilliantly executed iteration on punk we've seen in a long, long time. And talking of being combative, if you don't pick up on the \"army\" theme of many of the season's biggest shows (Bottega Veneta, Chloé, Miu Miu) and end up buying a pair of combat boots, I'll eat my bucket hat.\nThe first true “Chanel suit” was produced in 1925; Coco used chains to weigh down the fabric, so that it hung “just so”. She favored ornamentation such as ribbons, pretty buttons, and ropes of pearls. Her feminine touches added style and impact to her wearable designs; in fact, even vintage Chanel designs remain remarkably timeless and easy to wear.\n“Intuition is a strong feminine quality. I have applied that instinct to my career“. This is one our favorite quotes by Carolina Herrera and we think she is a true inspiration to women in fashion, and more, around the world. Carolina started to be known by regularly appearing on the International Best Dressed List in the 80’s. Her trend marks are classy pieces like pencil skirts paired with crisp white cotton shirts. In 2008 she was awarded the Lifetime Achievement Award from the Council of Fashion Designers of America.\n“We love the body of a woman. Coco Chanel was wrong when she said that men were unable to design for women. Women know too much about women and they transpose their needs onto women’s clothes” The idea of women power and women shapes is as good to Dolce and Gabbana as it is for us. In 1985, their first collection was shown in Milan and built their themes on screen sirens, Sicilian widows and a rosary of Catholic kitsch. Dolce and Gabbana are arguably the most powerful and influential designers of our time.\nIn the fashion industry, every fashion designer should follow fashion design development process to design a new dress. Fashion design mainly influenced by cultural and social attitudes, and it has varied over time, place and religion. Fashion designing knowledge is mainly comes from the theoretical background. Students are learned step by step fashion design development process from their institute. All of these information’s are very important for the beginner. When developing your designs for a new collection involves many components like inspiration, drawing, color, design functionality, technical package, garment patterns and so on.\nFashion design collection is a range of garments, accessories or products that are designed and produced for sale to retailers or direct to the customer. It is grouped by theme, colour or fabrication, creating a strong fashion statement. This range of items may be inspired by trends and theme. Cultural and social influences are reflecting on design. Designs are usually done for the special occasion or season. Collection is a grouping of outfits that are present for catwalk, online web pages. For the wholesale market, the collection will be shown at trade shows or in-house events. For the general customer designer give their collections on press or magazine by attractive photographs.\nFashion designers attempt to design clothes which are functional as well as aesthetically pleasing. They consider who is likely to wear a garment and the situations in which it will be worn, and they work within a wide range of materials, colors, patterns and styles. Though most clothing worn for everyday wear falls within a narrow range of conventional styles, unusual garments are usually sought for special occasions such as evening wear or party dresses.\nIt is all about showing off your best features. Let all the best things about your out there to get the attention of male. Mostly accompanied by heels, shorts or tight skirts, this style leaves the bare minimum for imagination. Exposure is to be at the maximum and as much as skin is shown. Tight fitting tops are chosen to show off the features like breasts and stomach. This is the type of fashion which is not every woman’s cup of tea. You got a lot of guts to pull off this one.\nA-line has been administering the design world for quite a while, and it is certainly on the ascent, particularly for the resort season. It looks best when brandished with a touch of the 70s for somewhat of a bend. A fun loving blend of manly coats with modernized flower prints or beautiful crisscrosses, trimmed cuts, and high-waisted flared fits or straight-leg pants worn with mentors, can leave no uncertainty. A-line jumpsuits, and dresses, or skirts with weaving, matched with shirts or sews, are ladylike, thus 2019!\nA big hello to my intimates! Here I have another article of great consequence, yeah it is pertaining to the best Indian fashion-designers. As the time is eluding, trends are changing and we’re getting slaves to fashion! It’s an era of style and vogue, where dressing well is considered a form of good manners! Therefore every year , in every season fashion designers launch their prêt-line. Designers endeavor to design dresses that are both functional and aesthetically satisfying. The fashion-industry of India is flourishing by leaps and bounds and has got successful in achieving fame and popularity through the world as a fashion-centric-nation! Previously , not many people knew about India and it’s fashion but it’s emerging and mounting industry has made it’s mark not only in the neighboring countries but in the international fashion-industry as well! And it is because of it’s designers that India is now in the top list of countries. Specially Indian fabric and it’s attire called “Saree” is well liked and admired throughout the world.\n\"Leather has become a key player in our wardrobes; it’s now much more accessibly priced and the breadth of styles means we can wear it all year long. Designers manipulated this fabrication which draped and felt like wool, cotton or silk,\" says von der Goltz. \"Faux leather continues to be a rising trend, with Nanushka leading the way. Nearly half of our Nanushka buy for A/W 19 is made up of vegan leather looks.\"\nLondon designer Mary Quant was not only an iconic fashion design but also the imortal creator of the miniskirt. Mary had an art-school background and had been designing and manufacturing her own clothes since second half of the twentieth century. She was convinced that fashion needed to be affordable to be accessible to the young, she opened her own retail boutique, Bazaar, on the Kings Road in 1955, introducing the “mod” era and the “Chelsea look.”\nIf there's one styling trick that was put on the map at the tail end of 2018 and looks set to continue well into this winter, it's the idea of the double jumper, or scrumper, as we called it (because it's essentially about tying another jumper around your neck as a scarf). The concept has extended even further since then, with many designer using super-cosy knits from head to toe. The chicest and easiest way to do it is with the same colour or pattern.\nValentino Garavani, better known as Valentino, was born in northern Italy in 1932. From childhood, he was interested in fashion, and he pursued apprenticeships and training from family and local designers. By his late teens, he was ready for Paris. His parents helped him to move there, and when he arrived, he began to study art and design in preparation for his chosen career.\nChristian Lacroix directs his devotion and talent for fantasy and theatrics to create true design spectacles. Lacroix arrived in the 80s with the opening of his fashion house and immediately set the world on fire with unexpected mixes of colors and patterns. “The idea of seeing everybody clad the same is not really my cup of tea“. This is one of the best quotes of Lacroix, fighting for unique and irreverent pieces in the world of fashion.\nValentino started his brilliant and admirable career in the world of fashion in 1950 when he moved to Paris to study design. His classically elegant and feminine designs made women look utterly glamorous. The Italian maestro worked at houses Dessus and Laroche before going back to Rome to set up his business in 1959. By the mid-1960s, Valentino was a favorite designer of the world’s best-dressed women, including Jacqueline Kennedy. Among his signatures is a particular fabric shade, known as “Valentino red.”\nFamous Italian fashion brands include Gucci, Armani, Prada, Dolce & Gabbana, Valentino, Bottega Veneta, Roberto Cavalli, Costume National, Brunello Cucinelli, Diesel, Etro, Fay, Fendi, Salvatore Ferragamo, Fiorucci, Genny, Iceberg, Kiton, La Perla, Loro Piana, Marni, Missoni, Moncler, Moschino, Richmond, Ermanno Scervino, Tod's, Trussardi, and Versace.\nResearch is a journey of questioning, exploring, conceptualizing and visualizing information generated by observation and investigation. Record the all research information’s and creates a rich visual archive which can be used to inspire your designs from theme to final detail. Research is the key direction to good design development. It is actual guideline to start fashion design development process.\nUntil the 1950s, fashion clothing was predominately designed and manufactured on a made-to-measure or haute couture basis (French for high-sewing), with each garment being created for a specific client. A couture garment is made to order for an individual customer, and is usually made from high-quality, expensive fabric, sewn with extreme attention to detail and finish, often using time-consuming, hand-executed techniques. Look and fit take priority over the cost of materials and the time it takes to make. Due to the high cost of each garment, haute couture makes little direct profit for the fashion houses, but is important for prestige and publicity.\nFashion design is generally considered to have started in the 19th century with Charles Frederick Worth who was the first designer to have his label sewn into the garments that he created. Before the former draper set up his maison couture (fashion house) in Paris, clothing design and creation was handled by largely anonymous seamstresses, and high fashion descended from that worn at royal courts. Worth's success was such that he was able to dictate to his customers what they should wear, instead of following their lead as earlier dressmakers had done. The term couturier was in fact first created in order to describe him. While all articles of clothing from any time period are studied by academics as costume design, only clothing created after 1858 is considered as fashion design.\nBorn Gabrielle“Coco” Bonheur Chanel, she is a excellent French fashion designer, founder of the well known Chanel brand, whose modernist thought, practical design, and pursuit of expensive simplicity made her an important and influential figure in 20th-century fashion. She was the only fashion designer to be named on Time 100: The Most Important People of the Century.\nIt’s not hard to point out a gal that wears the cowgirl fashion style! In this particular style, there’s a few staples that are an absolute must for the wardrobe: undoubtedly an adorable cowgirl hat, typically in either some shade of brown or pink, a pair of flared blue jeans with western themed leather belt, denim jacket to match, a pair of cowgirl boots, and a few white t-shirt and plaid button-ups.", "label": "Yes"}
{"text": "Ancient Rome’s urban design\nRomans build majestic cities that accommodated millions of people. The cities’ designs were superior and highly complex with sophisticated streets and pavements. The streets accommodated many people because it was uniquely designed to ease congestions and facilitate efficient movements of people and carts. Most roman cities were created with two major streets running across it. One street run from east to west and cut across from north to south. The streets met at an intersection which acted as a center of commerce of the city. The streets were paved and smoothened to ensure easy movement. Importantly, Roman cities had schools and libraries to facilitate learning (Nicholas, 10). The roman republic had a significant influence on the nature and designs of the cities. During the reign of Nero, city planning and designs resembled patterns of military camps. Walls were built around the towns to ensure security and reduce the threats of invasion from the barbarians.\nThe roman cities had political and military influence, the roman city planning and design were done with political safety in mind. The planning and design integrated defenses into street systems and styles. The walls and direction of the streets were laid concurrently to help improve security and prevent attacks. In the early times, the public buildings across the cities were financed and constructed by wealthy families. They received honor and respect by funding the construction of magnificent buildings. For the roman emperors, city designs and styles served the purpose of consolidating power as it ensured trusted nobles control the city center and ensure collection of tax. Importantly, roman cities ensured easy access to basic amenities such as food and clean water. In the 4th century BC, roman cities received adequate water from rivers. In places where rivers did not pass close to the cities, Romans build aqueducts to bring water close to the city.\nNicholas, David.

{"text": "Flower crowns, tipis and more…\nThis wedding is the perfect inspiration for any boho bride-to-be! Amy & Tom tied the knot in September at St Catherine's church in Burbage, followed by a stunning reception in a listed barn at Bosworth Battlefield Heritage Centre in Leicestershire. The couple adored the natural beauty of the setting and were able to transform the venue to suit their personal style. They worked with some fabulous suppliers, making it the day of the dreams with plenty of décor including festoon lighting, beautiful blooms and lots of personal touches. Their big day was relaxed and intimate - the exact vibe that Amy & Tom were aiming for! Go on, get stuck into the gorgeous gallery…\nTELL US ABOUT YOUR VENUE…\n“The Heritage Centre is nestled in miles of Leicestershire countryside close to where the Battle of Bosworth took place. It’s a beautiful area, steeped in history that we often visit for long country walks, so when we found out the barn (usually a visitor pit stop) is available for wedding hire, we were sold! It’s not a venue often associated with weddings and we loved that it’s slightly off the beaten track – quite literally! With its country setting and intimate feel, it was the perfect choice.”\nDESCRIBE THE STYLE OF YOUR WEDDING…\n“The style of our wedding was natural and rustic with a hint of luxe. We wanted to keep the day as intimate as possible, so we had a small wedding breakfast and a big party at night.\nGuests were entertained throughout by the amazing Richie Phillips, who deserves a major shout out. There’s no tune Richie (and his guitar) can’t pull off and he turned to the decks later on, ramping up the party vibe with amazing tunes into the night.\nWhile it was a rustic, country style wedding we wanted to style it in a modern way, so we chose neutral tones of ivory and green for our colour palette with touches of rose gold. Our wedding stationary, hand drawn by the New York illustrator Toby Triumph, was foil blocked in that colour which really made his amazing illustrations pop. We also hung lots of calligraphy signage around the barn created by Kayleigh Tarrant and the Leicestershire hire company The Lanes leant us – among other gems – a polaroid camera, which went down a storm with the guests. We also dotted tea lights around the venue, in jam jars collected by my colleagues, which complimented festoon lighting inside and outside the barn.”\nWHAT DID YOU ALL WEAR?\n“I chose a dress by Wtoo by Watters, bought from Tilly Trotters Brides in Leamington Spa. I wanted a gown somewhere between boho, romantic, contemporary and fun (not asking much!) and this ticked all the boxes, especially when the boutique’s team adapted it to be backless. The dress was also really comfortable to wear, perfect for dancing the night away! It was finished off with rose gold shoes and a foliage crown created by my friend and florist Hannah Ricci of Bloom Fleuriste. Hannah also made our beautiful natural bouquets and arrangements around the venue. We didn’t want the wedding to feel too formal, so the bridesmaids wore individual dresses in ivory and the groomsmen chose their own suits in shades of blue, to match Tom’s. He added a grey Reiss waistcoat which really set it off.”\nWHAT DID EVERYBODY EAT AND DRINK?\n“We had an outdoor fizz reception with classic canapés, but as it was a September wedding, we chose comfort food associated with Autumn for the main meal. Guests tucked into a roast and at night we served up bacon and sausage rolls which proved very popular!”\nHOW DID YOU ENTERTAIN YOUR GUESTS?\n“From acoustic performances to an amazing DJ set, Richie Phillips was the perfect choice for entertainment. We also hired lawn games from The Lanes, along with a polaroid camera, which got A LOT of use! Guests posted selfies alongside messages in our guest book (and a lot also made their way on to Instagram, too!) which brings back all the fun of the day!”\nANY WORDS OF ADVICE FOR FUTURE BRIDES & GROOMS?\n“Enjoy every moment. It’s amazing (and so rare) to have all your favourite people together having the best time ever and it FLIES so try and take a quiet moment together in all the madness to soak it all up. Definitely the best day of our lives!”\nYou’ll find even more wedding inspiration on the blog!

{"text": "Custom made french doors\nOur french doors are usually made to order to ensure you get the exact size and style you want.\nGenerally a set of doors would be between 1100mm and 1600mm wide and usually just over 2 meters high. However adding sidelights (extra fixed panels on the sides) or fanlights ( windows on top of doors) you can create a unit to fit most spaces.\nOur doors are solid timber and come in clear cedar or primed finish and with safety glass fitted. Exterior facings are supplied free of charge and delivery can be arranged (free in the Wellington area).\nWe believe we offer a superior quality product at an affordable price.\nIf purchasing french doors for the first time there are a number of points to consider.\nSize: With french doors you have two doors alongside each other. To keep the unit looking proportional and not overly wide it is a good idea to look at doors no wider than 750mm each. This will give you a french door frame approx 1500mm wide x 2050mm high. If you need wider then you may want to consider going higher than the traditional 1980mm high door to retain the proportions. If your space is much larger then consider using sidelites to take up extra width and fanlites to fill in the extra height.\nConstruction: Make sure your doors are manufactured for exterior use. Some 'exterior' doors are specified for sheltered conditions and are not solid timber construction. Stiles (door frames) should be 115mm wide and the bottom of the door should be approx 190mm high. These dimensions ensure strength and stability in the door frame and also ensure all locks can be fitted.\nMaterial: We firmly believe that exterior doors should ideally be made from clear cedar. It is a stable material with minimal movement over the seasons and is light and strong. Beware of doors made of pine, it is notoriously unstable and expands and contracts with the change in the weather. Cedar has stood the test of time and many doors and windows in Wellington homes are over 100 years old.\nGlazing: Doors should ideally have safety glass fitted (including both sides of double glazing) as standard. Double glazing is increasingly popular but does add to the overall weight of the door, so staying with the 750mm range (see above) is also important to reduce stress on the hinges.\nPrices are relevant to style, glazing, size and configuration but a typical single pane (one piece of glass per door) french door is between $1800 +GST and $2500 +GST", "label": "Yes"}

{"text": "Junqiao Wu received his BS from Fudan University, MS from Peking University, and his PhD from UC Berkeley, and was a postdoctoral researcher at Harvard University. He is currently a faculty member in the Department of Materials Science and Engineering and Co-Deputy Director of the Tsinghua-Berkeley Shenzhen Institute. Dr. Wu was a recipient of the Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers (PECASE) from the White House in 2013. The Wu laboratory explores novel materials properties and applications, phase transitions at the nanometer scale, and thermoelectrics and optoelectronics of semiconductor films, nanostructures, interfaces and composites.\nJunqiao Wu was a 2020 Bakar Prize recipient.\nBakar Prize Project\nContinued from the Spark Award Project detailed below:\nJunqiao Wu’s Bakar Prize project is centered on addressing a building energy efficiency challenge. They aim to create a roof coating that can effectively regulate indoor temperatures, keeping homes cool during the summer and warm in the winter, ultimately reducing the energy consumption associated with heating and cooling.\nApproximately 20% of total energy usage is dedicated to heating and cooling buildings. To harness the natural cooling potential of the sky, they have developed a solid film that autonomously adjusts its thermal radiative properties in response to varying ambient temperatures, requiring no external energy input. This temperature-adaptive radiative coating (TARC) efficiently absorbs solar energy and dynamically alters its thermal emittance. When temperatures are below 22 degrees Celsius, it maintains a low emittance of 0.2, retaining heat below the surface. However, when temperatures exceed 27 degrees Celsius, it switches to a high emittance of 0.9, facilitating radiative cooling of the surface. Simulations have indicated that TARC surpasses existing roof coatings in terms of energy conservation, particularly in regions with significant seasonal temperature variations.\nWu’s work, published in Science in 2021, has garnered considerable attention from the scientific community, industry stakeholders, and social media. Building upon this success, they have achieved significant milestones: (1) they’ve submitted two US patents, (2) secured a research grant from BASF, (3) obtained a STTR grant from the federal government in collaboration with industry partners, and (4) initiated an entrepreneurial venture with a dedicated core team. Ongoing discussions and partnerships with building and construction industries are actively underway.\nThis research direction represents a shift from their previous work funded by the Bakar Spark Award, where their focus was on enhancing the sensitivity of infrared sensing and imaging. Although that project yielded exciting results, resulting in publications and patents, its market potential was limited, and it faced substantial barriers to commercialization. Leveraging similar materials and working principles, they successfully transitioned their efforts to develop the TARC technology with the support of the Bakar Prize.\nSpark Award Project\nMulti-Smart Thermal Materials\nWe propose to develop, understand, and exploit a special class of phase transition materials as multi-functional coatings for smart thermal management. Thanks to a thermally-driven metal-insulator phase transition, these materials switch their thermal radiation reflectivity and thermal conductivity at the transition temperature, and the transition temperature can be tuned by the material composition. These unusual switching properties enable self-regulated, intelligent management of heat exchanges (both heat radiation and heat conduction) of a system with its environment for much improved thermal energy utilization. The technology would save a large amount of energy that is currently wasted due to poor heat management in those systems. For example, currently in buildings, ~ 50% of the energy consumption is used for heating and air conditioning, while in transportation, ~ 60% of the heat produced in combustion engines is directly wasted. If the coatings we develop would improve efficiency of these processes by only 5%, the net effect would save energy costs in the USA on the order of billions of dollars.\nJunqiao Wu’s Story\nSmart Materials: Getting the Sun to Pull Down the Shade\nMarch 6, 2018\nBy: Wallace Ravven\nWhen a car seat heats up on a hot day, it just gets…. hot. But some materials become totally transformed by the sun’s heat. They undergo a kind of Jekyll and Hyde reversal called a phase change. They turn from insulators to metals.\nIn theory, a compound that makes this radical change could provide a novel form of air conditioning. Early in the day, windows coated with the material would be transparent to infrared light, which accounts for about half of the heat streaming in with the sunlight.\nBut if the room warms beyond the desired temperature, the alchemy would kick in. The magic material would switch to its metallic state and start blocking infrared light, preventing the room from heating up any more. In effect, the sun’s heat would turn on the air conditioning.\nJunqiao Wu, professor of materials science and engineering is exploiting the most remarkable of these compounds, called vanadium dioxide, to devise ways to cool buildings, winter-proof car engines, and even create novel sunglasses.\nActually, many compounds go through a phase change, but for most of them, the temperature at which this occurs is very far away from room temperature often above about 210 or below about -180 degrees Fahrenheit.\nVanadium dioxide changes phase at 150 degrees Fahrenheit, but by adding discrete amounts of the element tungsten to the compound, Wu can get the material to change phase at room temperature.\n“By adding tungsten, we can ‘tune’ vanadium dioxide to change phase at precise temperatures,” he says. “If it’s tuned to change at room temperature, it will be transparent to infrared light in the cool morning, but opaque — blocking the infrared light — when the day gets hotter.”\nThe key feature, he says, is that it’s “switchable.” Every day, at the pre-tuned temperature, the window would switch from transparent to opaque – automatically, with no mechanical or electrical input.\nWu estimates that if such coatings improved the efficiency of heating, air conditioning and combustion in engines by just five percent, the savings in energy costs in the U.S. would be in the billions per year.\nHe and his postdocs have demonstrated the strategy with miniature prototype models of houses, one “building” window coated with the tungsten vanadium oxide and one not.\nWith funding from the Bakar Fellows Program he plans to ramp up the proof-of-principle experiments.\n“I hope with the Bakar Fellows Program’s support, we can demonstrate the technology’s promise, and its practicality,” he says. “We want to secure a patent for the process we are developing and publish good papers to share the technology with other researchers in universities and in industry.” Wu makes the tungsten-vanadium dioxide concoction in extremely thin films, about 100 nanometers thick, or about one hundredth the width of a human hair.\nIn addition to regulating incoming infrared light, tungsten-vanadium dioxide can also switch from insulating against heat in one phase to conducting heat more in the other. If a car engine were coated with it, Wu says, the material would protect the engine from overnight freezing temperatures, but then switch to its heat-conducting phase when the engine is started to help warm up the engine.\nThe material also has an electrical resistance that is extremely sensitive to temperature. A slight temperature rise can drive the materials from electrical insulating toward conductive. This property, Wu says, can be utilized to make sensitive infrared detectors, called ‘bolometers’, that, unlike conventional ones, do not need special cooling.\nAlso on the drawing board: switchable sunglasses with lenses that could instantly change from light to dark with the flip of a switch, depending on the light conditions. In many professions, such as construction work or trucking, the sun’s glare can pose sudden and serious trouble. An instant change of the lens’s transparency, instead of a gradual shift as glasses currently allow, could help on the job, and even save lives.", "label": "Yes"}

{"text": "Hall 8, Stand B03 – 8th – 10th March\nStorage capacity in warehouses and logistics centers is often in short supply so it is increasingly important for managers to maximise every square metre. At Logimat 2016, taking place in Stuttgart, Germany from 8th – 10th March, Forklift manufacturer Hyster will be showcasing solutions for warehouses that are short on space, including a special pallet truck and stacker that can be used in narrow aisles, as well as the Hyster Tracker fleet management system to help optimise their operations.\nIn Hall 8 at stand B03, Hyster and their regional partner, dealer Württemberg, Hald & Grunewald, will introduce the rugged Hyster Rider Pallet Truck RP2.0-2.5N Series. This pallet truck enables the driver to adjust their driving position while cross-docking with a new system for the seat and backrest, allowing the driver to sit on long journeys or stand or lean when loading a truck at the touch of a button. The seated postition provides the operator with high stability, visibility and security and the lateral seat also helps with reverse travel.\nRP2.0-2.5N for demanding applications\nThe new series has been designed for intensive use and is especially suited for demanding applications in warehouse operations. Its rugged construction makes the new pallet truck ideal for use in all sectors, even under harsh conditions. For example, food industry warehouse operations, where reliability and durability for pallet transport over medium to long routes are crucial.\nStable device for cross-docking applications\n\"The Hyster® RP2.0-2.5N is particularly suitable for unloading trucks at warehouse ramps,\" says Dominik Vierkotten, Hyster Area Business Director Central Europe. \"Its robust and durable construction is designed for cross-docking operations with intensive use, where drivers often have to work against the clock.\"\nIn collaboration with the Hyster Engineering Concept Centre, the new powered pallet truck has been specifically designed for use in warehouse operations where space is limited offering a far more compact construction than an electric pallet truck with a folding platform.\nLow vibration and high operating comfort\nSpecial attention was paid to three key areas when developing the new Hyster® RP2.0-2.5N series; accessibility for the driver, low whole body vibration when accelerating and compactness.\n\"The driver's area of our new truck has an innovative design where we have placed emphasis on accessibility for the driver, the seat and easy operation,\" says Vierkotten. \"Especially in intensive applications where the driver is frequently getting on and off, the cab must be easy to access.\"\nHyster Reach truck: The warehouse all-rounder\n\"Reach trucks are the most important product in many warehouses and are at the core of many materials handling operations,\" says Vierkotten. The Hyster® R1.4-2.5 Reach Truck series is designed for lifting loads of up to 12.5 meters and is equipped with the latest technology, including a new mast and a modular cab.\nThanks to the patented design of the mast, the residual load-bearing capacity is retained at greater heights, even in the 1.4 tonne model. \"In the past you would have chosen a 2 tonne reach truck – not necessarily to lift 2 tonnes, but to lift smaller weights higher,\" explains Vierkotten. The Hyster reach truck offers faster lifting and lowering speeds with reduced friction between the mast stages. In addition, the total height of the reach truck, which is currently also available with a quadriform mast, can be reduced, in order to pass through low doors, for example.\nReliability, low operating costs and ease of maintenance make the reach truck an all-rounder for demanding applications in the warehouse. Depending on user requirements, the truck can be equipped with different cabs, including a version for narrow aisles. Even for the toughest cold store conditions a fully enclosed cab, which can be equipped with different front windows, is available for the standard width model.\nHyster® Tracker Telemetry system\nHyster offers the Hyster® Tracker for effective fleet management. The telemetry system is designed to improve the efficiency of trucks used in demanding application areas, such as warehousing and logistics centers. The system can be used to track performance and uses the wireless tracking technology to increase uptime and productivity for robust Hyster forklifts.\nThe Hyster® Tracker monitors the fleet, controls driver access and helps ensure that the operator pre-shift checklist was processed before a shift begins. The main advantages of the system include asset protection, efficient cost management, reduced downtime control and the wireless cost tracking through the HysterTracker.com portal, which can be accessed from a PC, laptop or tablet. The Hyster Tracker can be integrated into existing WiFi networks or alternatively use cellular signal for data communication.\n\"The Hyster fleet management system provides managers with valuable information regarding the operation and maintenance of Hyster forklifts, thereby ensuring an increase in productivity,\" explains Dominik Vierkotten, Area Business Director Central Europe. Operating hours, operating costs, periodic maintenance and error codes can be tracked. When there is a high impact, for example, automated e-mails can be sent and logged, making it easier to review incidents and related product damage. The Wirelsss Access function enables idle shutdown as well as operator access control.\n“The Hyster® Tracker can restrict access so that only those trained to use that equipment are able to,” explains Vierkotten. “This helps to increase driver accountability, which can help to improve driving behaviour and is proven to reduce damage to equipment and to stock.” To prevent operators from leaving running equipment unattended, the idle shutdown feature powers off the equipment following a pre-identified amount of time if the equipment is tracked as idling or unattended. This also helps to reduce excess fuel costs.\nWireless Verification includes an Operator Pre-shift Checklist with tracking functionality for an on-board, prompt-based verification of equipment issues. This enables any issues to be addressed and resolved as quickly as possible, reducing expenses and potential downtime. Hyster® Tracker can also be used to support any make of materials handling equipment and is part of the wider aftermarket offering from Hyster, which includes spare parts, batteries and added solutions to help further enhance operations.", "label": "Yes"}
{"text": "Aveline Flooring August 07th, 2017 - 18:34:48\nYou can choose furniture coasters from a vast array of styles at most any hardware, home improvement or house ware shop. Styles and techniques range from special materials that are circular, oval, and rectangular or square which peel and stick to smooth surfaces with special materials attached to metal frames which can be used in your wooden floor surface`s care by hammering them into the legs` bottoms of furniture. An alternative would be to make furniture coasters for your hardwood floors and wooden floors` care. Coasters can also be used to protect the tops of wood furniture against circles which form from glasses or cups containing liquids.\nOf all the wood flooring, the most often installed is the parquet tile. They consist of square interlocking wood strips, held together with glues and/or metal wires. Often they come as single 6\"x6\", or multiple 12\"x12\" square tiles, about 1/4\" thick. They are glued directly to the sub-flooring, and are strong enough to span small deviations in it. The wood is often prefinished, and requires little maintenance. Parquet floors are a cheaper alternative to strip flooring, providing the same warm, durable surface.\nMost popularly used in bathrooms, kitchens, laundry areas and entryways are vinyl sheet, or linoleum floorings. This type of flooring cones in a vast array of colors, textures and patterns, in sheet sizes of 12 foot widths with varying lengths, and made from a vinyl composite, covered with a surface coating. It is installed by applying covering over the sub-floor, usually mahogany or particle core sheets 4`x4` in size, to which the vinyl is glued to. It can also be installed directly onto concrete floors, in areas such as basements. Joining two sheets together is a standard practice when the room width exceeds 12`, or under doorways. Sheet vinyl is a good flooring in areas where water tends to accumulate, like around bathroom fixtures or at entry ways. It is fairly durable, and often maintenance free. Linoleum is one of the cheapest types of flooring to install.\nAll joists must extend at least 1-1/2\" on to a bearing assembly, of either a beam or full height wall, unless metal hangers are installed to provide proper bearing support against other structural components. Beams, which support the floor joists over greater spans, are constructed in the form of laminated joists often referred to as built up beams, or one piece solid load bearing beams, cut from logs or manufactured. Electricians and plumber may often cut or drill into the joist work to install utilities, and this is accepted, so long as they do not remove more material than what is required by codes. This type of floor system is usually the cheapest to install.", "label": "Yes"}

{"text": "Silk sarees are the jewel on the crown, an outfit that could never let you down! If you’re under the assumption that a plain silk saree is too boring, think again! With ethnic fashion trends taking over the world, very few garments can be styled in as many unique styles as a beautiful silk saree.\nYou can adorn a silk saree for almost any occasion, with a few simple styling tips in mind. Since silk sarees are often quite grand, you’ll need to keep in mind tricks to hold the saree in place as well. Once that’s covered, you can get started on the best part: accessorizing your look with chic jewelry, royal blouses, and iconic footwear!\nTips and Tricks to Glam up Your Silk Saree\nThere are many ways to style your wedding saree, but silk sarees aren’t only meant for weddings! This article discusses the best ways to style your indian wedding dresses for any occasion!\n- Pick Matching Jewelry: When it comes to Indian jewelry, it can be extremely hard to choose a few to go with your outfit. However, with silk sarees, picking delicate jewelry adds a soft and well-balanced look. Especially if you pick a heavily embroidered blouse or wear a heavy saree like the Banarasi silk saree, wearing light jewelry is key.\nHowever, if your saree is very simple, you can jazz up the look with heavy earrings and a heavy, choker necklace. If you’re looking to dress up for a cocktail party, keep it light and minimal to add class to your look.\n- Think Outside the Box: When you think of accessories, you don’t have to limit yourself to jewelry and handbags. For example, adding belts to your saree has become a popular trend in the fashion industry. To make a statement, drape your saree as you usually would and add a belt at the waist.\nThis not only helps glam your look but also holds your pallu at the waist. For more traditional looks, you can add traditional belts like a Kamarband in the same manner! Pair a plain saree with a statement blouse and matching belt to complete this look.\n- Pant-Style Drape: Another popular trend of styling sarees is to drape your saree in the style of pants. It is a modern, sleek and comfortable way of draping the saree that stays true to traditional chic. Many celebrities and designers have adorned this look in fashion shows and other events, showing off the ultimate modern and traditional blend.\nWear pants underneath your saree, and begin to drape it from one leg. Leave one side of the pants visible. You can wear this look for any occasion.\n- Embroidered Blouses: Blouses are the greatest key to adoring a subtle, classy yet ethnic look. Wearing a plain silk saree with a heavy brocade or even a Banarasi silk blouse can add a lot of grace and charm, helping you pull off an extraordinary look. Team this look with elegant and chic jewelry, a minimal clutch, and stilettos or pumps to finish this uber chic look!\n- Keep your pallu in Front: If you’re looking for an outfit that makes a modern statement, tie your pallu in the front. This look works exceptionally well for women with slim waists and is quite a daring look. You can drape your saree in a way in which the pallu of it falls in front of your shoulder.\nThis look is truly head-turning in all senses and brings out the essence of your saree. With this look, opt for a heavy silk saree with a heavily embroidered pallu for the best use of this style.\nThese are 5 simple tips to keep in mind when you’re looking to rock a plain silk saree. Remember, no matter what the occasion, there is a silky smooth look to be styled for them all! So if you don’t own your silk saree yet, wait no longer!", "label": "Yes"}

{"text": "Already a prolific maker of wristwatches with tiny, intricate automatons – with tropical birds and magic lotus being part of its repertoire – Jaquet Droz has turned to the realm of Middle Earth for its latest creation. Featuring an automaton with nine mechanical animations, the Jaquet Droz Dragon Automaton was designed by Canadian illustrator John Howe.\nWhen it comes to dragons and fantasy lands, Mr Howe’s credentials are impeccable. Amongst his past roles was one of the two chief designers of The Lord of the Rings trilogy. And aside from the Dragon Automaton, another of Mr Howe’s most recent works was designing The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power, the Amazon production that’s the most expensive television series in history.\nDragons are a common theme on watches, but usually of the East Asian kind and typically in the Year of the Dragon of the Chinese Zodiac – a simple reflection of where most demand for luxury watches originates. A dragon of the European fantasy genre is less common; in fact, I cannot recall another watch that depicts themes from the fantasy genre.\nThis makes the Dragon Automaton unique, both figuratively and literally. The motif is usual and esoteric so its appeal will certainly be niche at best.\nBut that is exactly the point, since each Dragon Automaton will be a one-of-a-kind creation that’s made to order, with the client able to customise the dial in terms of materials and decoration. Such custom watches are Jaquet Droz’s focus now, so this watch is a perfect fit for the brand’s philosophy.\nIt is also tangibly impressive because Jaquet Droz excels at automatons and intricate dial decoration. But that impressive mechanical complexity comes at a cost – the watch is enormous at almost 17 mm thick and also well into six figures in terms of price.\nMiddle Earth in miniature\nAlthough Canadian by birth, John Howe has lived in Neuchatel for three decades, putting him a thirty minute’s drive from La Chaux-de-Fonds, the home of Jaquet Droz. Over his career Mr Howe has created the illustrations for various books relating to J.R.R. Tolkien’s fantasy series, but his best known work is unquestionably the distinctive visual atmosphere that define The Lord of the Rings films and television series.\nHis role in the creation of the Dragon Automaton was similar. He envisioned and drew the dial motif, which was the refined in collaboration with Jaquet Droz, which finally transformed his vision into a miniature mechanical wonder.\nThe pusher at four o’clock activates the mechanical dragon on the dial, which is made up of nine individual animations: “The sacred animal’s spine undulates like its tail; its eye and jaw open and close; its tongue moves; its crest rises and falls; its claws grasp a continuously rotating stone.”\nEach of them start and stop at random during the 10-15 second cycle of the automaton, so the motion of the dragon is unique each time. According to Jaquet Droz, this makes the Dragon Automaton amongst the most complex wristwatch automatons ever made – a credible claim.\nWhile the automaton itself is a permanent part of the motif, the rest of the watch can be customised. Amongst the choices are the dial material, engraving on the dragon and case, or even a case of clear sapphire crystal.\nRealising the miniature automaton required a two-part movement. The time-telling portion is actually a small automatic calibre originally developed for a ladies watch. Having a power reserve of only 38 hours because of its compact size, the base movement is visible at 12 o’clock on the back.\nThe automaton, on the other hand, is a huge module that surrounds the base movement. All of the moving parts within the automaton module means it has 78 jewelled bearings within, compared to just 29 jewels in the base movement.\nBecause of the tremendous energy required to run the animation, the automaton module has its own mainspring that is manually wound. And like minute repeater, the automaton has its own governor to regulate the speed of the animation as it unfolds.\nKey Facts and Price\nJaquet Droz Dragon Automaton\nRef.

{"text": "Adobe Photoshop is a graphics editor that can be used to create a variety of digital images. This software can work on Windows and Mac computers. In this article, we’ll help you to understand how to work with Photoshop.\nInstalling Adobe Photoshop is relatively easy. The first step is to download the correct version of Photoshop from Adobe’s website or from the App Store. After the download is complete, you can open the file and follow the on-screen instructions to install the software. Once the installation is complete, you may want to crack the software. To do this, you should go to the Adobe website and download a crack for the version you are using. After the crack is downloaded, open it and follow the instructions to apply the crack. Once the crack is applied, you can start using Adobe Photoshop.\nWouldn’t it be exceptionally helpful to have not only a Content Material-Target Retouch tool, but also a tool to create new textures, as well as a better Content-Based Adjustment tool? Yes, it would. Fortunately, with the latest version of Lightroom, you can now add textures as an extra layer or you can use the Content-Based Adjustment tools to add new textures to an image. In addition, you can create new textures from scratch. However, I can’t say I’ve ever used the textured brushes that are offered in the Brush tool. I also can’t say I’d use those to create new textures. In other words I use the default brushes in Brushes, which are really good for a lot of things, not texture creation. The same can be said about the Droplet brushes in the Brush tool. I’ve noticed the Droplet tool is similar to the Content-Based Adjustment tools in that users can choose either from a preset or a color. However, I’ve not found the Droplet brushes to be much more useful than the standard brushes provided out of the box.\nOne of the greatest things about the legacy interface, which differs so greatly from the new interface, is its ability to bring back some of the old previews from the earlier Lightroom releases. Otherwise, the new interface is identical to the one it held as with the previous releases of Lightroom. Here are the main titles, as seen in the Layers and Book panels: Brush, Effects, Info, Lens, Paths, and the New.]\nLightroom continuously displays text in the status bar to notify photographers of the available content-based adjustments and groups. This is a helpful tool to keep an eye on, as it typically shows you the benefits of using each adjustment. You will also see the original camera files in the bottom left hand corner of the window, along with the different adjustment sliders for each. This is a welcome change from the old interface because it shows you exactly where you are in the image adjustment process. Previously, this was hard to see and hard to read. I actually had to look for the camera files to get a clue to what adjustments had been made. This new interface is also much smoother and feels more responsive. I believe this is primarily because of the implementation of new technology called\nAdobe Photoshop is one of the tools that I use daily. At my job, I am constantly working with photo editing. At my school, I use it to grade assignments. At work, I enhance the layout of a web page using Adobe Photoshop.\nIn the following project, students will apply the concepts of color theory to design.

Another feature allows you to import a topic into Photoshop and automatically create additional files for use in a project. Canvas Size Settings assist you in accurately measuring the size of the canvas allowing you to accurately scale the canvas to fit specifications, and blend your design into any correctly sized background.\nPhotoshop for Android will enable you to bring a professional experience for mobile. You can convert RAW images, create panoramas, and import and edit mobile device content into Photoshop.

For many years, Photoshop and other advanced file formats and tools have remained the province of the professional. The new trend toward open-source imaging software also is progress toward democratizing photo editing and making it much easier for people with little or no photography expertise to get the most out of their cameras, smart phones, and apps.\nAlthough we recommend you ditch the app store if you aren’t already, the App Store is great for downloading and updating Photoshop Elements. Among other features, it lets you easily install the new version from the web right from the app. But if you’re looking to update to a new version of the software, you can download the standalone installer from Adobe directly.\nApple’s macOS 10.14 Mojave not only catapults Yosemite to a well-deserved retirement, but it also brings native GPU-acceleration to the Mac for people with a compatible Mac. This move is largely being made in an effort to encourage better performance for macOS users outside of Apple’s ecosystem of Macs and iOS devices, particularly on machines with NVIDIA or AMD GPUs. For various reasons, the shift to the native macOS GPU is full of caveats; not everyone is guaranteed to see performance benefits, and the feature is still early in its development.\np>The reason for inclusion of a graphic editor tool is that it can be used to edit the interface of a logo or to create shapes on pictures. On the other hand, if you want to chop up image parts and place them in a new place, Photoshop can help out in doing so.\nAnother primary reason for the inclusion of a photo editor is that it can help in editing a photo. It can be used to crop the picture to make the number of pixels uniform, edit a picture in a background or of another object, add a new colour or simply resize if needed. In other words, a photo editor is usually used to correct or improve a photo with a few tweaks.\nMost of the modern graphic designing tools offer a tool for adding various visual effects to a design. In addition to this, Photoshop includes several filters to boosts the look and impact of the image. This does not mean that these tools will make the design look bad. The opposite is what is observed. Using these tools, you can use the same design to convey totally different meanings and use the same image to create one of the best looking designs.\nThis deal with a picture and can be applied to resize or crop an image. It is the important part of photo editing and makes the image look more professional. This can be best used in website designing and other related areas. Having it helps in making the image look better organically and not in a forced way.\nThis tool is meant for applying the effects to a specific detail of the design. It is a feature of the photo enhancement tool that helps in changing the reflections depending on where it is applied.\nWith Adobe Photoshop, you can work with many different types of digital media in many different ways. You can open, work on, and save both RAW and JPEG files. You can edit photos, resize them, remove blemishes, fix flaws, and do much more. You can even combine photos, video, text, and other media into powerful presentations.\nPhotoshop is the industry standard for visual effects and designing on the web. The original version of Photoshop is unique in that it brought creators of any skill level into its fold, including those who were without any computer design experience. This photo editing software is one of the first desktop image editing software to realize this vision, and still holds up as the industry standard for a wide range of functions.

In total, you’ll complete thirty exciting creative projects.\nThe book is divided into simple, step-by-step lessons that let you focus more on what you love about art: making things—and that’s what this book is about. That’s the easy way to learn how art is created, from start to finish. You’ll learn to use the tools of the trade and master the digital art form of your choice: painting, drawing, and digital photography, for example.\nFrom the moment you work on Photoshop, you’ll be amazed at the new features like adjustable brush options, custom menu layouts, and design elements that enable you to lend your design to all the latest trends. Photoshop CC is a powerhouse of innovative tools that can be used on any workspace, from larger corporate websites to a one-man shop in a basement.\nPhotoshop CC, like classic Photoshop, is also cross platform. So you can download and install Photoshop CC (for Windows, macOS, or iOS) and get up and running quickly. If you install Photoshop CC in your Parallels desktop, you can work on your “browser” desktop whether that’s running Mac OS or Windows OS.\nThe iPhone or iPad version only works natively on iPhone and iPad, but the Android version will play on any Android device. And yes, you can install Photoshop CC on Android even if you don’t have a computer to run it. You can sync the files back and forth between your computer and your mobile device by downloading the desktop version of Photoshop first.\nWorking in Photoshop has never been easier; just remember to put some planning and design ahead of the Photoshop and CS4 installation process. The biggest positive for many is that the new applications are cross-compatible, so they can work together, and the same software can be used on all devices using the same operating system, including tablets, smart phones, and the most modern PCs.\nPhotoshop CC now makes it easier to learn quickly and move forward, while saving time working with the most powerful tools, thanks to a redesigned interface for making powerful image-editing actions. An action is a button on a panel, the right click menu or other menu in Photoshop that creates a repeatable, or iterative, workflow for resizing, retouching and retagging a photo. With actions, you can recreate your workflow quickly and repeatedly. For example, you can resize 25 photos as part of one action.\nOur most important task is to provide the world’s most widely used graphics software with the innovation, leadership, and tools you need to empower creatives and designers to make better projects with greater success. With our new innovations in Photoshop today, we aim to give you more control over your images, enable creative collaboration in your team environment, and deliver incredible experiences your clients will love.\nHere’s our compilation of the most frequently asked questions we received while writing the book:\n- How do I open an image and a document with Photoshop?\n- How do I save a file?\n- What is a layer?\n- How do I work with layers?\n- How do I flatten an image?\n- How do I switch between apps on my computer?\n- How do I use the ruler?\nWe will teach you the basic concepts of using Photoshop and how to master the tools available to you. We don’t cover only the use of Photoshop, but the entire Illustrator, InDesign, and Lightroom. So, we will also cover how to use the native features of the software such as the menu bar, panels, brushes, and preferences.\nThat’s a lot, and we do need to keep to these sub-headings for a better keeping of the answers, but remember, we have designed this book to be a quick reference with the answers to most questions that you will encounter when you start using Photoshop, and you might have a few to ask in the wild.\nLet’s get into the details of what this book is about. This book is your comprehensive guide to using Photoshop the way you’ve always wanted. It’s designed to take you from a complete novice to someone who can master Photoshop in no time.", "label": "Yes"}
{"text": "Direct air capture of carbon dioxide is a method that takes carbon dioxide out of ambient air, as opposed to carbon dioxide that is captured from the point of emissions, say, from the smokestack of a coal-fired power plant.\nLackner and his team are developing a device they call an air extractor, modeled after what is most abundant in nature: the leaf of a tree. There is about 0.5 liter of carbon dioxide in a cubic meter of atmosphere. When the extractor is dry, it loads itself with carbon dioxide from the air; when it's wet it releases carbon dioxide it has captured.\n“We can do this at a cost of about $30 a ton of carbon dioxide”, says Lackner, “we have designed a box that can extract about a ton of carbon dioxide a day; it fits into a shipping container”. “If we had 100 million of them\", Lackner adds, “we could extract more carbon dioxide out of the air then is currently put in.”\nThe carbon can be stored in the form of mineral carbonate rock or it can be injected deep in the ground. Alternatively, the carbon dioxide can be used, e.g. by turning it into a fuel. Airplanes will likely need to be powered by fuel for a long time, so captured carbon dioxide could be used to more sustainably produce synthetic jetfuel.\nIn his lab at Columbia's Engineering School, Lackner has built a small greenhouse, demonstrating that air extractors loaded with captured carbon dioxide can be placed inside a greenhouse; the humid atmosphere inside the greenhouse will make that the carbon dioxide is released. Adding carbon dioxide to the air inside greenhouses is beneficial for plant growth; the plants will take the carbon dioxide out of the air and use it to grow.\n- Prof. Klaus Lackner Takes Step Toward Workable Carbon Capture Technology\n- Klaus S.

{"text": "As the Ladue School District neared completion of the $75,000,000 expansion and renovation of the Ladue Horton Watkins High School in St. Louis, Mo., the design and construction team determined the budget lent itself to pursue replacement of its athletics facilities. The project had many elements involved in the full renovation. Specifically, there were updates made to the school’s football stadium (with a new grandstand, synthetic turf and a new scoreboard). The renovations made to the stadium building included updates to the press boxes, coaches’ boxes, viewing/filming decks, elevator, storage, and future locker room spaces below the new seating for 1,998 spectators.\nThe project also called for renovating the Nielson Gymnasium entrance and converting the locker rooms to public restroom facilities.\nAlthough each piece of the project had its own unique set of challenges and considerations, the design and implementation of the outdoor lighting for the athletic field was particularly complex. The track and field renovations called for sports lighting for the first time in the facility’s history, requiring 50 foot-candles from four 80’ poles. The biggest hurdle, however, was the physical location of the sports facility itself. With its close proximity to a residential neighborhood, the lighting needed to be designed in a very specific way. The new lighting would need to be bright enough to allow activities and competitions to take place at night but regulated to the point where there would not be an excess of spill lighting that negatively affected those that lived in the nearby neighborhood.\nSports lighting for the facility was a sensitive issue with the neighboring property owners. To mitigate any concerns, the lighting design was addressed with the city and its citizens very early in the design process. The McClure Engineering team met with the neighborhood association prior to submitting construction documents so they could voice any potential concerns, and so that the lighting design team could address any issues ahead of time. The team supported these discussions with technical information and pros/cons of different design features that were considered. Considerations were taken about how the lighting would affect the neighboring properties during the seasons of the year when the tree foliage is at its minimum coverage. Furthermore, the School District was completely transparent with information and offered extensive restrictions on the number of dates and hours that the lights would be used. Once all considerations were discussed, the McClure lighting design team designed a LED lighting system that provided an exceptional light level cut off at property lines. Though all code requirements were exceeded, the system was designed with individually dimmable fixtures so potential future complaints could be addressed easily and with minimal cost impact.\nOne of the first considerations that needed to be addressed was the height of the poles. Naturally, the initial thought from the neighborhood and school district was that lower poles would be the ideal choice. In fact, the community was initially pushing for the poles to be as short as possible. However, after further analysis and modeling, the team showed that if the poles were too short, it would be impossible to control the spill light. And controlling the spill light was the number one priority in keeping the neighborhood and school district satisfied with the ultimate results. After negotiating down from 100 ft. to 80 ft., the team could focus on the type of lighting that would best meet the needs of all parties involved.\nThe first thought was to use metal halide lighting due to its cost effectiveness. Unfortunately, the design team could not meet the spill light requirements for the community with this approach. Next, the team considered LEDs with optics to see how those would fare given the situation. Still, there was an excessive amount of spill light present. Then, McClure’s lighting designers tried optics with visors. By pairing specific optics with visors, the playing surface received the required light levels and uniformity required for televised sports while avoiding unnecessary spill into the neighboring dwellings.\nThe next challenge was an aerial one. In football, there are times when the ball is kicked so high that it may travel above the area that the lighting reaches given the use of visors. The team believed they needed uplights when using visors. The uplights would be installed roughly 15 feet above finished grade. Although this would fall into meeting specifications for dark sky requirements in the area, it was not a good situation for the community to have uplighting. The nature of the topography of the land precluded it. The grade change from the facility to the adjacent neighborhood would have resulted in the uplighting being in direct view by residents. At that point, the strategy of using optics and visors was nixed.\nIn the end, the team specified fixtures for each pole that had a dozen LEDs each, with each diode containing a TIR (Total Internal Reflective) optic. The goal was to establish the best optical control possible while still providing for aerial sports. This control allowed the dark sky requirements to be met, and the energy/light intensity to be completely regulated. Metal halide lighting is not dimmable, but with the LED lights, every fixture can be tuned. If one is too bright, that particular fixture can be dimmed. In years past, the facility would have had to wait for all the spectators to leave before shutting off the lights. Now with the control, the lights can simply be dimmed. The dimming can also be used to provide lower light levels for other activities such as practice without operating at 100 percent. This saves energy too!\nThe heads were also laid out in a specific, unbalanced way to control spill lighting. The design team determined that by putting a different number of heads on each pole (more lights on the visitors’ side to shoot light across the field away from the neighborhood, using the grandstand as a blocker) all of the lighting goals were met.\nIn addition to the challenges of the lighting, the existing facility was originally designed to be just above the flood plain, but could not be raised enough to completely avoid future flooding. In order to combat this issue, electrical components outside the building and in the flood plain were installed at a higher elevation on the poles and exterior walls.\nWhen the project was complete, both the school district and neighborhood were thrilled with what was ultimately delivered. It really does go to show that with the proper expertise and just as importantly, good communication from the start, these types of successful outcomes are regularly achievable.", "label": "Yes"}

{"text": "George Nelson was the man perhaps most embedded in the history of mid-century design. As both writer, architect and designer he understood intimately the vital importance of a home’s composition and the interplay between the structure and its interior elements.\nBorn in 1908, he got is first big break when he was named editor of Architecutral Forum magazine. This followed a stint in Europe as an architectural student where he had the temerity to seek out some of the leading lights of modernist design there. Taking this knowledge to the magazine, he was instrumental in introducing America to the f some of the key modernist proponents.\nThrough his work at Architectural Forum, Nelson’s ideas soon gained the attention of D. J. De Pree the founder of the Herman Miller furniture company (especially an article of Nelson’s on the Storagewall, a modular storage system that was the forerunner of systems furniture). De Pree convinced Nelson to be his Director of Design, which in turn prompted Nelson to found his own design firm, George Nelson & Associates.\nTogether they made some of the true furniture icons, of not just the mid-century style but design overall.\nGeorge Nelson’s Coconut Chair was named as such because of its resemblance to a coconut segment. It was designed in 1955, at the height of its designer’s creative collaboration with the Herman Miller furniture company (where he also produced other playful icons such as the L-shaped desk and the Marshmallow sofa).\nPerhaps the most pleasing aspect of the chair is the militantly spare use of materials and minimal design: just a bent steel base propping up foam rubber and simple upholstery (at its best with the high-quality black leather). Yet this simplicity is not at the expense of comfort. Indeed, the curious design also affords a remarkable freedom of movement and flexibility.\nLike the Coconut Chair, George Nelson’s Cigar Lamp was called as such because of its resemblance to its namesake, this time a fat cigar. First designed in 1947, the bulging shape is accentuated by subtle parallel lines.\nThe intricate spacing of these lines lends the structure a firmness not often evident in such light fixtures, while their subtle colouring diminishes what might otherwise seem like an overly harsh and utilitarian design (something further diminished by the playful name). The result is a rich diffused glow perfect for a bit of supplementary mood lighting.\nThe Platform Bench is a gorgeously simply piece of design from the great architect and designer. With the potential to serve as both surface and seat, the flexible bench design featured in Nelson’s first Herman Miller Collection in 1946. The wooden slates are closely spaced, while still letting sufficient light and air through, casting a beautiful shadow on the nearby floor, with finger joints creating a strength that is apparent just from looking at it.\nThis is the kind of furniture piece that really speaks to Nelson’s architectural background: emphatically celebrating functionality and firm structure.\nDo you live in a mid-century or modernist-inspired contemporary house and want to be featured on MidCenturyHome?

{"text": "Japanese Gardens: Development through the Ages\nJapanese gardens are renowned the world over for their beauty, intricacy, and depth of meaning. The construction of gardens became an important cultural art form in and of itself and is a great source of national pride of Japanese people and a great source of enjoyment for all who visit Japan.\nLike any art form, the style and design were heavily influenced by the prevailing philosophies and politics of the era. Over the last 1000+ years, Japanese gardens have evolved into a variety of styles and served a variety of purposes from the strolling gardens for the recreation of feudal lords during the Edo period to the dry stone gardens used for religious meditative purposes by Zen monks.\nEarly Japan (Before 794 AD)\nOne of the earliest garden forms in Japan were sacred places in the midst of nature, which humans marked by pebbles. Before Chinese culture was introduced to Japan, this early garden form can be recognized at some ancient Shinto shrines, for example at the Ise Shrines, whose buildings are surrounded by wide pebbled areas.\nThe adoption of Chinese culture and Buddhism from the 6th century onwards heavily influenced the design of Japanese gardens. Gardens were built at imperial palaces for recreational purposes, namely the entertainment of the emperor and aristocrats. Focal points were often ponds and streams which attempted to reproduce miniature representations of famous landscapes. They contained many Buddhist and Taoist elements and reflected these philosophies in their design.\nUnfortunately, none of these early palace gardens dating back more than 1500 years survive. However. the East Palace Garden at Heijo Place (below) was meticulously reconstructed based on archaeological findings in Nara and opened to the public in the 1990s.\nHeian Period (794-1185)\nDuring the relatively peaceful Heian Period, the capital was moved from Nara to Kyoto where the aristocrats devoted much of their time to the arts. They began building Shinden Gardens at their palaces and villas, large gardens which were used for elaborate parties and for recreational activities such as boating, fishing, and general enjoyment.\nShinden Gardens were described in detail in the classic novel Tale of Genji. Designed after Chinese concepts, the gardens featured large ponds and islands connected by arched bridges under which boats could pass. A gravel covered plaza in front of the building was used for entertainment, while one or more pavilions extended out over the water.\nNot a Shiden Garden, but Ritsurin Garden (above), dating back to 1625, carries on many influences from the Heian Period.\nKamakura and Muromachi Periods (1192-1573)\nAt the beginning of the Kamakura Period, political power in Japan shifted from the aristocratic court to the military elite. The military rulers embraced the newly introduced Zen Buddhism and the prevailing philosphies of the ruling class shifted from consumption and recreation to a disciplined mindset. Zen Buddhist concepts would exert a strong influence on garden design.\nGardens were no longer built as an extension of aristocratic courts but were built attached to temple buildings to help monks in meditation and religious advancement rather than for recreational purposes. Gardens also became smaller, simpler and more minimalist, while retaining many of the same elements as before, such as ponds, islands, bridges, and waterfalls.\nThe most extreme development towards minimalism was the Karesansui Dry Garden which uses nothing but rocks, gravel, and sand to represent all the elements of the garden landscape. They still attempted to represent famous landscapes but water is symbolized both by the arrangements of rock forms to create a dry waterfall (karetaki 枯滝) and by patterns raked into sand to create a dry stream (karenagare 枯流).\nWith their lack of flowering plants, the gardens monochrome nature was intentionally similar to ink monochrome landscape paintings, in particular those from the Chinese Northern Song dynasty (960-1126). Like the 2D paintings, the gardens are meant to be viewed from a single, seated perspective, quite the departure from the strolling gardens of leisure that came before them.\nLafcadio Hearn was a Greek born, but Irish raised writer who, after a year in New York, moved to Japan for the rest of his days and became a Japanese citizen and took the name of Koizumi Yakumo. He famously achieved a high level of fluency in Japanese and wrote many books describing Japanese culture as understood from the perspective of an outsider. As such he helped many Japanese to better understand the essence of what it is to be Japanese and as such, he is perhaps the most celebrated and historically significant of all foreign writers in Japan. On the topic of Japanese rock gardens, he wrote:\n“In order to comprehend the beauty of a Japanese garden, it is necessary to understand — or at least to learn to understand — the beauty of stones. Not of stones quarried by the hand of man, but of stones shaped by nature only. Until you can feel, and keenly feel, that stones have character, that stones have tones and values, the whole artistic meaning of a Japanese garden cannot be revealed to you. Not only is every stone chosen with a view to its particular expressiveness of form, but every stone in the garden or about the premises has its separate and individual name, indicating its purpose or its decorative duty.” Lafcadio Hearn (1850-1904)\nMany of the original gardens from this period still survive in Japan, especially in Kyoto‘s leading Zen temples, such as Ryoanji, Daitokuji, Tenryuji and Kokedera. Some older examples are also found in Kamakura, including the early Zen gardens of Zuisenji and Kenchoji.\nKaresansui Dry Garden (Ryoanji Temple in Kyoto)\nAzuchi-Momoyama Period (1573-1603)\nTea gardens (Chaniwa) had already appeared in previous periods but reached the height of their development during the Azuchi-Momoyama Period when the contemporary tea masters refined and perfected their design. They were imbued them with the spirit of “wabi” or rustic simplicity, for which they are recognized today.\nTea gardens are simple and utilitarian often with a stepping stone path leading from the entrance to a tea house. For lighting and decorative elements, stone lanterns were used, while a wash basin (tsukubai) is used for ritual cleansing. Many tea gardens can be found in Japan today, although many of them are incorporated into larger garden designs.\nEdo Period (1603-1867)\nDuring the Edo Period, garden design departed from the minimalism of the Muromachi Period as the ruling class rediscovered its likings for extravagant design, consumption, and recreation. The product of this changed culture was the creation of many large strolling gardens with ponds, islands and artificial hills that could be enjoyed from a variety of viewpoints along a circular trail. Many strolling gardens also included elements of more simple tea gardens and even the use of large rocks carried on from the Muromachi period.\nThe regional feudal lords constructed strolling gardens both in their hometowns and at their secondary villas in Edo (current day Tokyo). Therefore, strolling gardens today can typically be found in former castle towns and scattered around Tokyo. Among the most celebrated strolling gardens are Kanazawa’s Kenrokuen, Okayama’s Korakuen, Takamatsu’s Ritsurin Koen, Kyoto’s Katsura Imperial Villa and Tokyo’s Rikugien and Koishikawa Korakuen.\nIn contrast, Tsuboniwa are small gardens that became popular among the urban population. A tsubo is a unit of measurement of internal floor space, still used in real estate and property rentals in Japan today. A tsubo refers to the aire of two standard tatami mats. Tsuboniwa were 2 tsubo (four tatami mats) in size and this mini gardens often filled in the courtyard spaces within buildings or between townhouses.\nMuch like the pebble and rock-based Zen gardens, they were not were supposed to be viewed externally and not entered, but this was largely due to their limited size rather than purposes of mediation. They featured decorative elements, often including a small water feature and provided light, fresh air and a touch of nature through the middle of traditional houses that often were in densely populated areas.\nTsuboniwa can be seen in some of the historic merchant residences that are open to the public. They also remain a popular type of garden today among people who wish to incorporate a small green space into their homes but lack the luxury of abundant space.\nModern Gardens (1868 to present)\nIn the Meiji Period, Japan entered an age of rapid modernization and Westernization and many western-style city parks were built. Many of the formerly private strolling gardens were opened to the public. The construction of new gardens, previously driven by aristocratic, military elite, Buddhist monks and feudal samurai lords was now driven by politicians and indistrialists.\nNew private strolling gardens which often contained western gardening elements such as flower beds and expansive open lawns. Many of these gardens were built in the new capital of Tokyo, for example, the Kiyosumi Teien.\nSome modern garden designers also tried their hand at creating more traditional types of Japanese gardens, although they often included some new ideas into them. Good examples are the Zen gardens of the Tofukuji Temple in Kyoto and the stone garden in the back of Kongobuji Temple on Koyasanwhich date from the 1930s or the even more recent gardens of the Adachi Art Museum near Matsue.\nAdachi Art Museum near Matsue\nAny trip to Japan will no doubt include a visit to some Japanese garden, but for those particularly interested in experiencing the best Japan has to offer on a small group tour, with an English speaking knowledgeable guide accompanying throughout, you might want to consider our “Gardens of Japan” tour.

{"text": "Bold Colors Meet Mid-Century in an Arizona Townhouse\nCan't-Miss House Tours Straight to Your Inbox\nKeep up with our latest house tours each weekday with our House Tour of the Day newsletter\nName: Lalita Adkins\nLocation: Phoenix, Arizona\nSize: 2,2000 square feet\nYears lived in: 5 years; Owned\nFive years ago, Lalita moved into her husband’s townhouse while they were still dating. Before she got her hands on it, she says it was a bachelor pad, with occasional traces of the ghosts of girlfriends past. As a lifelong design lover, Lalita recognized the possibilities in the unique and open layout of the home.\nHer search for the home’s architect was fruitless, but there are some clues to suggest it could be a Ralph Haver. Whoever the designer is, the home is a beautiful example of mid century design.\nThe Adkins’ style is anchored in the idea that a home should be an ever evolving space that doesn’t need to be finished now, if ever. “Almost every time I clean I change something around, or I’ll add colors that are hot at the moment. Even if it’s just flowers.” They spend most of their time in the master bedroom, a serene space with no clutter. Lalita likes to surround herself with the things she loves, but can’t stand a muddled look, so she’ll continually rotate in a few select curios from the cabinet in the living room. One of the product lines she reps, Cab Deco, affords her the opportunity to add new occasional chairs when the mood strikes her.\nThey also adhere to the philosophy that waiting to find the ideal piece of home decor is far better than settling on a cheaper, instant solution. “When you buy stuff all the time, it’s so hard to justify the purchase of that perfect thing when you finally find it. Like a really cool rug… it’s a thousand dollars, but we can’t afford it because we bought all these cheaper ones we thought we needed at the time.” The Adkins understand they have a lifetime to adorn their surroundings, and that wisdom has helped them craft a truly lovely home, and one I look forward to watching evolve.\nApartment Therapy Survey:\nMy Style: I’d like to think it’s The Golden Girls meets the Eameses, but mostly it’s just a combination of our styles and the things we’ve collected that we’ve tried to bring together in a way that makes sense to us, and feels like home. I try not to make things too fussy, but it’s hard because my style is definitely a moving target, hard to pin down, changing from one week to the next.\nInspiration: All the bright colors of Mexico and India. My mother, and her sisters, who all have strong personal style, and take so much pride in decorating and improving their warm and colorful homes.\nFavorite Element: Our lush interior atrium that is the heart of the home, and connects the adjoining spaces of our living room, dining room and office\nBiggest Challenge: My husband and I are both pack rats, and despite having tons of closet space, it seems like our personal collections of stereo components, half-finished inventions, tools, instruments, tchotchkes, bags and clothes always seem to burst into our living areas.\nWhat Friends Say: Everyone loves the large open layout, and all the old finishes that we don’t have the heart to remove, like the canary yellow enamel kitchen sink, our 60s bathroom tiles, wire glass shower doors, anodized gold mullions, funky bright laminate, and our sunken master shower that has a huge picture window that opens up to hanging vines and bright flowers.\nBiggest Embarrassment: The pedestrian looking ceramic tile that dominates much of the downstairs. It’s sad that my husband was talked into removing the original 8″ x 8″ white saltillo that was installed, to replace it with a tract home looking product.\nProudest DIY: The refurbished and rewired $4 chandelier that hangs over our dining room. When it came into our lives the patina was practically black, there were no crystals, and it was likely a fire hazard. My husband and I worked together to find vintage crystals, and I boiled the individual arms and pieces that we took apart in vinegar to remove the patina. He masterfully ran brand new wiring through the lamp. Lastly, I hand twisted all the bronze wire to hold the crystals and attach them to the lamp. I know it looks like everyone else’s brass chandelier, but to me it looks like our little work of art.\nBiggest Indulgence: Our new wooden floors in our master bedroom, stairs and upstairs.\nBest Advice: Don’t rush into any purchases or remodeling projects. You’ll know when the piece is right and the time is right. I think it takes years to acquire a collection of pieces you love, and that have meaning to you. The best ideas evolve over time.

{"text": "WE INVITE YOU TO THE III EDITION OF FASHION CULTURE\nFrom Psychedelic Alice in The Wonderland through wicked trip on LSD to a toy store. That sentence would perfectly describe what is happening on The Fashion Culture runway shows. You’ve never been a part of it? You should. It’s like following the white rabbit but not to its hole but to The White House in West London where Britney Spears and Lady Gaga are releasing their horrendously expensive video clips. Fashion Matrix. A zone between fantasy and the reality. Would you like to get a blue or a red pill? The red one will keep you in the place you are now. The blue one will transfer you into the world of textures, materials, images. Into the world of fashion. Into the world of Fashion Culture.\nThe Fashion Culture project is an innovative platform created to support young, promising designers by paving their way into the fashion industry. After successful two editions it’s time to make a third round. The baldest and the most crazy ever. I bet the Little Mermaid would pick to attend the show over her love to Prince Eric. I bed Cinderella would pick the show over her Prince as well. Because our project is a Prince Charming for your mind.\nThis year’s contestants, just to name a few, included Nadia & Zehra – twins representing Polimoda in Florence, Yojiro Kake from Japan, Erik Bkerkesjo who hails from Stockholm and Anna Wilhelmi who began in Berlin. The 16 young hopefuls were presenting a mix of womenswear and menswear. Fashion Culture show exposed their brands to some of the industry’s most influential movers and shakers. And they all delivered the best fashion menu you could have imagined. Because fashion is like food. It feeds your eyes, spirit and the soul.\nIII Edition of Fashion Culture Project took the place on the 14th of June in the White House palace in London and it was a ride that the guests won’t forget so fast. From satin dresses to contemporary vision of men’s suits to weird furry coats and streetwear mixed with the roots of hip hop and glamour. It was a fashion wrestling between the best competitors and the debuting ones who came out as strong as the regular ones.\nThe White House is a re-creation of a palace in Poland, which was owned by Prince John Zylinski’s grandmother. During World War II she was expelled from her palace by the Communist Government who burnt it to the ashes. After a spell in a Concentration Camp she went to London, where her grandson John was born. Brought up on stories of this wonderful Polish Palace, John promised her when he was 6 years old that he would rebuild it. Prince John kept his promise to his grandmother. The White House construction was completed in May 2009. Imagine a place sinking in gold ornaments and posh, heavy curtains like from “Gone With The Wind”. Scarlett O’Hara would love to be there and walk on the runway – if she had ever existed. But instead of Scarlett, Britney Spears, Rihanna and Lady Gaga were filming their videos there. And the palace became a great place for Fashion Culture. It became a part of its bedtime story for naughty children.\nThis year the public’s award went to Victoria Rowley from London College Of Fashion who has described her collection as a crazy trip happening inside someone’s mad mind. The beautiful dresses, straight from a fairytale, were made out of 30 or 60 meters of the material. But they weren’t ordinary dresses – each, made of a delicate chiffon had a graphic on it of a massive fingers, human organs or penises. The audience was taken by the storm.\nSince the beginning, Fashion Culture has been supported by many influential representatives from the wide circles of art, culture and diplomacy, such as Prince Jan Zylinski and Republic of Poland Ambassador to the United Kingdom – Witold Sobkow.\nPartners of the third edition of the project include:\nUniversity of the Arts – London College of Fashion and Central Saint Martins College of Art and Design (UK) Beckman’s College of Design (Sweden) , Polimoda (Italy) Flanders Fashion Institure (Belgium), ESMOD (Germany) Cracow School of Art and Fashion Design and Cracow School of Art and Fashion Design -SAPU (Poland).\nThis is just the beginning of the journey. Come, sit down with us. Look around, listen to the sound of the music. Listen to your heart. Are you graduating this year? Scream. Shout. Shout your talent. We can put you down in our menu. Hoping that the audience will enjoy the meal you are serving. Because Fashion Culture is not only the next big thing. We are the must-to-visit place on the map of Europe.", "label": "Yes"}

However, the decision on the practical implementation of this technology in specific projects will be made only based on the results of the contract - no earlier than the end of 2023\n- he said.\nIt is assumed that the first VNEU will be installed on Project 677 Lada submarines, which has already been repeatedly announced. The use of an air-independent installation on the Amur-1650 submarines intended for export is also being considered. Russia proposed to build such diesel-electric submarines for India.\nIt should be noted that in addition to the Rubin Central Design Bureau MT, the Malakhit Marine Bureau is also developing its own air-independent installation for diesel-electric submarines, and the work is being carried out on an initiative basis.\nThe use of VNEU relieves the ship from the need to float to the surface to recharge the batteries and replenish the air supply necessary for the operation of diesel generators in a submerged position.

The new aircraft is being designed to replace all three bombers currently in service with the Russian long-range aviation, including the Tu-22M3 long-range bomber and the Tu-95 and Tu-160 (aka the White Swan) strategic bombers.\nThe photo above shows the Tupolev Tu-170 Stealth Bomber.\nThe PAK DA is being developed by the Tupolev Design Bureau. The new bomber will be significantly different from the Tu-160. It will have a flying wing design. The new bomber will be subsonic. The loss in speed will be compensated with advanced stealth and electronic capabilities.\nThe new bomber is expected to make its first flight sometime before 2021, with the first deliveries starting in 2023.

{"text": "Founders of Wreaths\nUncommon Ways to Use Christmas Wreaths in Holiday Decor\nChristmas traditions often become set in stone and, over time, many people stop looking for new ways to decorate for this major holiday. This year, change things up a bit by purchasing multiple wreaths and using them throughout the home. Don't simply hang one on the door and assume the work is done. This decorative item can be used in a variety of locations and unique ways with great results.\nDo you have plants in the home? The saucers for these plants may not add to the overall appeal of the space, and a wreath is a great way to hide the saucer during the holidays.\nTake a wreath, turn it sideways and attach rope in three or four locations evenly spaced around the edges. The rope may then be attached to an outside beam or ceiling to use the wreath as a decoration. Some opt to hang ribbons from the wreath and turn it into a seasonal mobile, while others prefer to add various decorations around and on top of the wreath. It's all a matter of personal preference, as the ideas are endless when this common item is employed in this unusual manner.\nTake three wreaths of varying sizes and turn them into a snowman. Add embellishments for the accessories and have a one-of-a-kind decoration that others are certain to love.\nTake an ordinary, round clock and turn it into seasonal decor with the help of a wreath. Simply place the wreath on the outside of the clock and the work is done. If there are no clocks in the home suitable for this purpose, inexpensive ones can be picked up at a discount store and used year after year easily. Simply store them with the holiday decorations for yearly use.\nHosting a holiday party this year? Place wreaths around bowls of food for a festive touch. Make certain the wreaths do not come into contact with the food, and choose bowls according to the wreath size. Add some plastic cranberries to the wreath or other removable decorations, if desired, as this allows the wreath to be changed yearly, depending on the theme of the party.\nTurn to Worcester Wreath Company (WorcesterWreath.com) for christmas wreaths and numerous other decorative balsam items perfect for the holidays. Many Americans know of this company. as they are the Founders of Wreaths Across America. In business since 1971, the company remains a family owned organization, and they are the only wreath supplier with their own forest.

{"text": "Months before this project had gotten underway I asked irrigation contractor Vinny Catoggio to meet with me on the site to review the landscape plan. This meeting is the first critical step in planning an automatic sprinkler system that is customized to the planting plan as well as to the unique characteristics of the site. Vinny and I spent almost 2 hrs. together discussing each aspect of the design. We consider the exposure, grades and plant types of each area, and then mutually agree on an irrigation strategy. From there an irrigation plan is drawn for the project and a budget prepared.\nVinny and I both know that there will be modifications to the irrigation design once the project is far enough along and the irrigation phase begins. It is the preliminary discussions a landscape designer has with the irrigation contractor, along with the tactical changes made while the system is being installed that makes for a truly “site-specific” and efficient automatic sprinkler system.\nOf all the things to consider when planning an irrigation system, there is one key point that all should follow: Always separate the lawn sprinkler zones from the planting area zones. This universal rule deserves a thorough explanation of what goes into a professional, well-designed automatic sprinkler system. And yes, this will be another report I look forward to writing for LandscapeAdvisor.\nAbove you’ll see one of three manifolds being built. This particular one has 4 valves – each of which controls a sprinkler zone. These manifolds are built below grade and are housed in plastic valve boxes with covers for access. This project has a total of 14 valves (zones) and they are divided almost evenly between lawn zones and planting zones.\nIn the second picture a technician is installing a sprinkler head for a lawn zone. Notice he’s working in front of the plantings where he’ll position the head. When installed, the coverage of the head can be adjusted to only water up to the grass edges and not the nearby planting areas.", "label": "Yes"}

{"text": "Lexus ES VS Jaguar XE\n- Outstanding ride and handling\n- Great horsepower for your buck\n- Though, good looks\n- Rear seats are tight\n- Small boot\n- Optional safety tech\nCT, IS, GS, LS, RC, LC. Yes, that list of letters looks like something you’d read when getting your eyes tested at an optometrist, but they are actually all Lexus models.\nOk, you may have known that already, but did you know that those are just their initials? They actually have full names, too; Compact Touring, Intelligent Sport, Grand Sport, Luxury Saloon, Racing Coupe, Luxury Coupe.\nAnd so this review isn’t just on the new-generation ES, but on the Elegant Sedan, which made it to Australia in 2018. And, as if hinting at things to come, it’s available in ES300h petrol-electric hybrid guise only.\nThis is the seventh-generation of a model that has been part of the Lexus line-up since the very beginning, way back when the luxury arm of Toyota first stepped onto the world stage in 1989.\nSo, does the ES300h live up to its Elegant Sedan name? Does being hybrid-only in Australia mean it loses its powerful presence? And is there any reason why you’d get one over a Mercedes-Benz E-Class or BMW 5 Series?\nSo many questions, but after living with the ES300h in top-of-the-range Sports Luxury guise for a week, we now have all the answers.\nRead More: Lexus ES300h Luxury 2019 review: snapshot\n|Fuel Type||Premium Unleaded Petrol|\nMercedes-Benz has the C-Class, BMW has the 3 Series, Audi has the A4 and Jaguar has the one people in Australia seem to forget – the XE.\nYep, the default setting we seem to have when it comes to buying a prestige car is as strong as buying the same brand of milk every week.\nThere’s a decent choice of milk, but it can sometimes seem that there are only three brands and we tend to zero in on the same one again and again. Same with prestige cars.\nBut all milk is the same, I hear you say. And I’m inclined to agree, and that’s the difference, cars vary greatly despite them having the same purpose.\nThe latest version of Jaguar XE has arrived in Australia and while it’s very similar in size and shape to its German rivals there are some big differences, and some compelling reasons to add it to your shopping list.\nI promise, there are no more mentions of milk.\n|Engine Type||2.0L turbo|\n|Fuel Type||Premium Unleaded Petrol|\nThe ES300h is outstanding in terms of ride comfort, refinement and value. If you’re looking for a true driver’s car then a Lexus RCF is probably a better tree to bark up, but if you’re looking to ferry passengers in a serene, prestigious and fuel-efficient way, then look no further.\nIs the Lexus ES300h in the same league as a BMW 5 Series or Mercedes-Benz E-Class? Tell us what you think in the comments below.\nThe Jaguar XE is a dynamic, prestige mid-sized premium sedan, for those who are more concerned with engaging driving than cargo space and rear legroom.\nThe sweet spot in the range is the entry R-Dynamic SE. Buy that one and option the handling pack, and you'll still come in under the costs of the HSE.\nWould you pick a Jaguar over a Mercedes-Benz, Audi or BMW? Tell us what you think in the comments below.\nIf you think all Lexus models look the same, then pop on over to the Audi, BMW or Benz websites and take a peek at their line-ups. Compared to the ranges from those prestige car makers, Lexus models look wildly different from each other.\nOpinions on that ‘Spindle Grille’ are as polarising as views on politics or religion. Personally, I like how upfront and brave the grille design is, but what seems odd to me is that it’s almost as if this was the only place on the exterior where designers were allowed to be a bit adventurous. The rear, while cleanly styled is a bit plain. The bottom just doesn’t match the face.\nThe ES300h’s roofline in side profile is beautiful as it sweeps almost fastback-style to the boot lid. Again, not the most dramatic styling, but it’s still pleasing in the sense that the design flows well together. The same can be said for the fit and finish – the panel gaps are near-perfect.\nThis perfection continues into the cabin, where the materials and craftsmanship matches German prestige rivals in places (the door handles, leather and digital instrument cluster, for example), only to be let down in other areas which disclose its budget Toyota family connection (the air vents, steering wheel and display screen).\nThe ES300h’s interior design isn’t going to set everybody’s world on fire, but there will be those who adore its asymmetrical styling with different textured surfaces that fold, swoop and jut up against each other’s space. Have a look at the images, they’re of the Sports Luxury which sits above the Luxury in the two grade line-up.\nThe differences visually between the grades is minimal. The Luxury has 17-inch alloys, while the Sport Luxury has 18-inch.\nNew colours for this generation include Glacial Ecru (the sandy hue of our test car in the images) and Radiata Green. Both grades’ interiors come in a variety of colour schemes, including Black, Chateau, and Topaz. Exclusively for the Sport Luxury cabin is Rich Cream, too. The Sports Luxury steering wheel has wood trim.\nOne of the more peculiar design elements of the ES300h’s cabin design, and there are a few, are the controls for the drive modes and traction control. They sit like horns on the instrument cluster hood, as though these are things the driver will constantly be reaching for, when in reality most people will never touch the traction control button.\nA new-generation car means new foundations, and the ES300h is built on the GA-K platform which underpins the Camry. The platform is part of the latest global architecture which Toyota and Lexus are now using to build its vehicles.\nThe dimensions of the ES300h, if you’re wondering if it will fit in your garage, are just under 5.0m long, 1.9m wide and 1.4m tall.\nThis freshen up of the XE sees a sharper, wider look for the mid-sized sedan with sleeker headlights and tail-lights, plus redesigned front and rear bumpers.\nFrom front-on the XE looks low, broad and planted, a black mesh grille and the way it’s flanked by much larger air intakes is tough, and the signature Jaguar long bonnet curving down towards it looks magnificent.\nThe rear of the car has benefited greatly, too. Gone are those overly simple tail-lights, replaced by more refined units with a strong resemblance to the F-Type's.\nHow much smaller is the XE than its big sister the XF? Well, here are the dimensions. The XE is a mid-sized car at 4678mm long (276mm shorter than the XF), 1416mm tall (41mm shorter in height) and 13mm narrower at 2075mm wide (including the mirrors).\nThe XE’s cabin has been updated, too. There’s the new steering wheel which has a more minimalist and cleaner design than the previous tiller, the rotary gear shifter has been replaced with an upright trigger-grip device (another functional improvement), and there’s the 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster.\nNew materials and trims are used throughout the interior. Both grades have premium carpet mats, and aluminium trim around the centre console.\nIn the SE four types of two-tone leather upholstery can be specified as non-cost options, while another four which are $1170 options in the base grade are available free in the HSE.\nThe standard cabins of both grades feel luxurious and premium.\nThe Lexus ES300h is a five-seater sedan, but it’s really designed to sit two comfortably in the back, given there’s a large driveshaft hump in the floor and that the outboard seats are divided by a fold-down control panel/armrest.\nLegroom in the second row is ample. I’m 191cm tall, and I had about 20mm of space between my knees and the seat back when it was in my driving position. Headroom gets tight with that sloping roofline, but there’s just enough space thanks to the low hip point of the rear seats.\nCabin storage is excellent. The fold-down armrest for the rear seats has a storage tray and two cup holders, while the large centre console bin has a lid which can open towards the driver and also to the front passenger (I spent way too long marvelling at how it worked). There are two cup holders up front and decent-sized door pockets, too. Those rear doors open wide for easy exit and entry.\nBoot space in the ES300h is 454 litres (VDA), beating the 410-litre cargo capacity of the BMW 530e.\nAs far as power outlets, you’ll find two USB chargers in the centre console storage bin and a Qi wireless charging pad, which is awkwardly situated making it hard to place larger phones onto it.\nMid-sized sedans have a tough job on their hands when it comes to practicality – they need to be small enough to park and pilot in the city but big enough to carry at least four adults comfortably along with their luggage.\nI’m 191cm tall and while space up front for me is plentiful, space behind my diving position is limited. Headroom in the second row is getting tight, too.\nThe small rear doors also made entry and exit a bit of a challenge for me.\nBoot space is also not the best in the class at 410 litres. I’m being kind. See, the Mercedes-Benz C-Class has a cargo capacity of 434 litres, while the BMW 3 Series and Audi A4 have 480 litres volumes.\nUp front you’ll find a USB and a 12-volt outlet, but if you want the wireless charger for your iPhone or Android device you’ll need to option it for $180.\nPrice and features\nYes, and don’t let anybody tell you any differently. The Luxury lists for $59,888 and the Sports Luxury is $74,888. Both are bargains when you consider the quality and features.\nIf it was my money, I’d go for the Luxury which is almost indistinguishable visually but doesn’t come with as many tech and convenience features as the Sport Luxury.\nStill, the Luxury gets the 12.3-inch screen with sat nav, a 10-speaker Pioneer stereo system with digital radio, a head-up display, dual-zone climate control, wireless charging, 10-way power adjustable front seats, privacy rear windows, a moonroof, proximity key and LED headlights.\nThe Sports Luxury takes all of that and adds a Mark Levinson 17-speaker sound system, leather seats, heated and ventilated 12-way power adjustable front seats, heated and power reclining rear seats, three-zone climate control, heated steering wheel, power rear sunshade and manual side rear window shades, gesture-open boot and cornering LED headlights.\nThe Sports Luxury also comes with noise reducing 18-inch wheels – they contain what’s called a Helmholtz resonator which cancels out the drone that can be produced when driving.\nIs there anything missing? When I saw the rear fold-down armrest with the control panel I instantly thought the ES300h must have had seat-back screens, but nope. Also, it’s annoying that Lexus still doesn’t have Apple CarPlay and Android Auto as part of its package. This will change we hear, but it has been slow on the uptake.\nThe Lexus ES300h’s direct rival is the Infiniti Q70 Hybrid GT Premium for $82,900, but it also challenges the likes of Mercedes-Benz E-Class, which starts at $91,900, BMW’s 5 Series, which begins at $92,990, and the Audi A6, which kicks off at $81,900.\nThere are two members of the Jaguar XE family: the R-Dynamic SE which lists for $65,670, before on-road costs, and the R-Dynamic HSE for $71,940. Both have the same engine, but the HSE has more in the way of standard features.\nComing standard on both cars is a 10.0-inch screen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, LED headlights with auto high beam and direction indicators, metal treadplates with R-Dynamic branding, dual-zone climate control, ambient lighting, digital radio, sat nav, proximity key with push button ignition, reversing camera, Bluetooth connectivity and power front seats.\nThe R-Dynamic HSE grade adds more standard features such as a second touchscreen below the 10.0-inch display for climate control, swaps the 125W six-speaker stereo in the SE for an 11-speaker 380W Meridian system, also adding adaptive cruise control, and an electrically adjustable steering column.\nThe only other difference is that the SE has 18-inch alloy wheels while the HSE has 19-inch rims.\nIt’s not incredibly good value as far as standard features go and you’ll have to option privacy glass, wireless charging, the head-up display and a 360-degree camera on both grades.\nEngine & trans\nThis combines a 2.5-litre four-cylinder petrol engine making 131kW and 221Nm, with an electric motor that has an output of 88kW and 202Nm. The 244.8V nickel-metal hydride battery has been moved from under the boot floor in the previous generation car to under the rear seats, so it no longer eats into the cargo space.\nThe ES300h isn’t a plug-in hybrid, so battery recharging is done through regenerative braking.\nA continuously variable transmission means seamless and smooth low-speed driving using just the motor, but under heavy acceleration the engine activates and you’ll hear that drone associated with CVTs.\nThere’s one engine for both the R-Dynamic SE and R-Dynamic HSE – a 2.0-litre turbo-petrol four cylinder making 221kW/400Nm. Drive is sent to the rear wheels via an eight-speed automatic transmission.\nThe four-cylinder felt strong and all that torque arrives low in the rev range (1500rpm) for good off-the-line acceleration. The transmission is also excellent, shifting smoothly and decisively.\nIt’s a shame the V6 isn’t offered anymore, but 221kW is a lot more power than you’ll get for this money in a BMW 3 Series or Mercedes-Benz C-Class\nThis is the point of a hybrid, right? To save fuel? The electric motor can power the car at low speeds around car parks or in bumper-to-bumper traffic, and I found that after 104km of both urban and open road usage my fuel economy in the Sport Luxury was 5.4L/100km.\nLexus’ official combined fuel economy figure for both the Luxury and Sports Luxury is 4.6L/100km.\nJaguar says that the XE will use 6.9L/100km of premium unleaded petrol when driven on a combination of open and urban roads.\nAfter my time with it the trip computer was reporting an average of 8.7L/100km. Not bad considering the test drive would have been thirsty work for the four-cylinder turbo engine.\nTwo words: quiet and comfortable. Well that’s three words, but that sums up the ES300h on the road. Yes, rivals may have intelligent adaptive air suspension and leather made from free range cows, and they are supremely tranquil and sumptuous places, but challenging them is this ES300h.\nEven with its regular shock absorbers and steel-spring suspension, the ride was outstanding for its comfort and composure on the worst roads Sydney could throw at it over the week we tested the car.\nFront and rear seats were supportive and comfortable over long distances, too. From a driver’s perspective the experience was serene – this was an easy and relaxing car to pilot.\nI’m not a huge fan of petrol-electric hybrid powertrains, but it suits the seamless personality of the ES perfectly, adding to the smoothness of the ride as it slipped silently through traffic.\nJust don’t expect the ES300h to be rewarding from a dynamic driving perspective. The steering was heavy and a little numb, and while the handling was good, I felt disconnected from the road. And whenever I needed to move quickly the combustion engine would splutter to life and the CVT would begin to drone.\nThe launch took place on twisty country roads snaking away from the coast in Northern NSW, but I was only a few corners in before it became darn clear the R-Dynamic HSE was talented dynamically. Impressively so.\nThe HSE I tested was fitted with the $2090 'Dynamic Handling Pack', which adds bigger front brakes (350mm), adaptive dampers and configurable settings for throttle, transmission, chassis and steering.\nSteering which felt a tad heavy in town became the XE's secret weapon as the roads curled through the hills. The confidence the steering, delivering great feedback and accuracy, gives the driver can’t be overstated.\nThis combined with the XE’s excellent handling and powerful four-cylinder engine makes it a clear dynamic standout among its competitors.\nA comfortable ride even, on potholed roads, but flat handling regardless of how hard it was pushed through corners amazed me.\nSure, optional adaptive dampers were fitted to our test car, but considering the work out they were getting without skipping a beat, their response was impressive.\nFollowing this I dropped into the seat of the red R-Dynamic SE you can see in the images. While this wasn’t fitted with the handling package the HSE had, the only real difference I could feel was in the comfort – the adaptive dampers were able to produce a more composed and cushioned ride.\nHandling, however, felt sharp, sure and the steering gave me the same confidence I experienced in the HSE.\nThe Lexus ES300h was awarded the maximum five-star ANCAP rating when it was tested in September 2018. Coming standard on both the Luxury and Sports Luxury grades are 10 airbags, AEB with pedestrian detection, lane keeping assistance and adaptive cruise control.\nBy stepping up to the Sports Luxury you’ll also get adaptive high beams which is fair enough, but you’ll also gain equipment which really should be on the base grade, too, such as blind spot warning and rear cross-traffic alert - which come standard on a Camry SL for half the price.\nYou’ll find two ISOFIX mounts and three top-tether anchor points across the second row which we used for our four year old and his car seat.\nThe Jaguar XE was given the maximum five-star ANCAP rating when it was tested in 2015. Both the R-Dynamic SE and R-Dynamic HSE come with AEB, lane keeping assistance, rear cross traffic alert, traffic sign recognition and automatic parking.\nThe HSE adds blind spot assist which will steer you back into your lane if you’re about to change lanes on top of somebody else; and adaptive cruise control.\nThe lowish score is due to the need to option safety equipment – it’s becoming the norm for advanced technology to be included as standard.\nThe Jaguar XE is covered by a three-year, 100,000km warranty. Servicing is condition-based (your XE will let you know when it needs a check-up) and there’s a five-year/130,000km service plan which costs $1750.\nAgain a low score here, but that’s because of the short warranty compared to the five-year coverage which has become an industry expectation and while there is a service plan there’s no service-by-service price guide.", "label": "Yes"}

{"text": "How Design Sprints reduce risk, cut through inertia, and facilitate a more customer-centric product development.\nBy Tim Höfer\nI am a Berlin-based designer, working at the intersection of user-centric design, business, and innovation. I am mostly interested in what makes products succeed or fail, and what sets successful product companies apart.\nA lot of people I've encountered stumble over the term \"Design Sprint\" at first, so let me get it out of the way right at the start:\nBluntly put, the Design Sprint is a structured, time-boxed process for applying human-centered design and Design Thinking to tackle complex challenges by ideating a promising solution, turning it into a prototype, and then testing it with users and collecting their feedback.\nThe Design Sprint originated in Silicon Valley. A team at Google Ventures (now GV) used the process to help portfolio companies solve problems, learn faster, and build better products. Since then, companies all over the world have adopted Design Sprints.\nWhy should you trust me?\nBecause I don't just talk the talk, but actually walk the walk. I have run Design Sprints for companies all over the world since 2016. I have experienced hundreds of Design Sprints end-to-end, from the perspective of a participant, faciliator, prototyper, and researcher. There has been hardly a week where I didn't either take part in the delivery of a Design Sprint or its preparation. Along with my colleagues at AJ&Smart, I also contributed to innovations and tweaks to the original Design Sprint process. Some of these are now used by practitioners all over the world (such as our improvement to Storyboarding, or our remote Sprint delivery). Last but not least, I share my experience in Design Sprint delivery with other practitioners in trainings and coaching calls. With that out of the way, let's dive in!\nRunning a Design Sprint workshop\nAgain, it's important to clarify this right at the start: Design Sprints are not for coming up with (visual) design or branding ideas. They can be used for that, but they are a lot more versatile and useful when used strategically.\nA startup, for example, might use Design Sprints to validate the value proposition and product/market fit of a new, innovative product, without spending time and resources on building an untested idea. It also decreases time-to-market, because the product can launch with the features that are most valuable to users first. As an additional benefit, the outcomes of the Sprint can also be more effectively pitched to investors than an abstract business case.\nA company's product team might use a Design Sprint to come up with feature ideas and test ideas before committing time and resources to build them. Opportunity costs are high, and rather than betting everything on an uncertain path, a Design Sprint gives you an idea of the direction that will have the biggest impact.\nAn enterprise might use a Design Sprint to align teams, improve internal processes, and build a customer-centric culture of innovation. The list could go on. The versatility of Design Sprints is one of the reasons they have taken the world by storm since 2015.\nIn a Design Sprint, a mass of diverse ideas is created. But the most important outcomes are the insights, and the clarity you get by testing a prototype of some of the ideas with people from the target group.\nBesides rapidly creating ideas, the Design Sprint is an excellent way of learning through experimentation. I really like this way of describing it: Imagine you are in a room with the lights switched off, and your task is to hit a dartboard in complete darkness. It's very likely you'll miss on the first try, but once you switch on the light, you see how far off you were — so you'll be much closer when you do it again. The Design Sprint allows you to switch on the light and repeat your throw without any risk.\nLet me unpack quickly what exactly you hold in your hand at the end of a Design Sprint.\nAlignment on and validation of the most critical problems to solve\nAlignment on an ambitious long-term goal, that serves a North Star for the team during the Design Sprint, but can form the base for product KPIs or team OKRs\nA mass of diverse ideas from the team, each potentially a solution for the problem, and a way to reach your goal\nA high-fidelity prototype of the most promising ideas, which makes the solution idea more tangible. It builds rapidly, but looks real enough to get you feedback in the user test\nFeedback on the solution prototype from a group of users. This feedback gives you clarity on the next steps\nThe best use of a Sprint is to work on the biggest, most complex and most unclear challenges. At the beginning of every Design Sprint, the team explores the problem space and aligns on a focus area.\nFor teams, this alignment and clarity is extremely valuable, because it creates clear priorities among the many problems they are facing.\nThe key challenges are then framed in a standardized way that doesn't prescribe a solution. As a result, the group can create a more diverse range of ideas how to solve the problem.\nThen, every participant in the Sprint creates their own, individual approach how the problem might be solved. The entire group will quietly sketch and map out their individual ideas. However, the ideas don't need to be fully detailed, and the sketches don't have to be pretty. The important thing is to get the idea across as clearly as possible.\nFrom this mass of ideas, the group picks one or two thatchave the highest potential to solve the challenge. By focusing on just one or two ideas, it's possible to spend more time to work out missing details, and map out how to turn the idea into a prototype that can be tested.\nProduct Design Workshop\nNow that you have decided on an idea, it's very important to test it. Otherwise you miss out on a valuable opportunity to learn if you are going in the right direction.\nLikewise, just describing the specs of an idea to users isn't enough, as the potential for misinterpretations is too high.\nSo, to get useful feedback on your idea, you turn it into a prototype. It should look and feel very close to what the real product might look like.\nAt the same time, it should be simple enough to test it as soon as possible. At this point, you still don't know if your idea is valid or not. To avoid a waste of time and effort, the prototype is created quickly, within just one or two days. It entirely consists of interlinked images that look like the interface and frontend of an app, product or website.\nCreation of a Prototype\nThe ideal prototype is interactive and looks real and refined enough to make your testers forget that they aren't dealing with a real app or website, and give you a mass of insights and critical, but useful feedback.\nAt the same time, the prototype is simple enough to be able to create it quickly, and focuses on the most important features and key user journeys you want to get feedback on.\nAt the end of a Design Sprint, you show the solution prototype to a group of testers in qualitative interviews that yield you valuable insights.\nEach of the testers is recruited to match your target market's demographic and background and is interviewed for up to one hour long while they interact with the prototype.\nOnce you show a prototype of your ideas to people from your target group, everything becomes a lot clearer and the next steps become a lot easier to plan.\nThis feedback can be utilized to iterate and improve your solutions, prioritize a feature roadmap or sharpen the value proposition.\nConducting a user interview\nI have run successful Design Sprints for multinational enterprises like American Express and Daimler, tech companies like Google and Twitter, to startups like N26 and Zero.

In this video, our knitting expert Jen Lucas explains one way to create the horizontal braid and encourages you to try to incorporate it into your future projects.\nWORKED IN THE ROUND\nWork horizontal braid on the next round as follows:\n1. With the left needle, make one by lifting strand in between stitch just worked and the next stitch, bringing the needle from front to back and knitting it, knitting through the back loop (1 stitch increased).\n2. Slip one stitch purlwise from right needle to left needle.\n3. Bring right needle behind the first st on the left needle, knit second stitch on left needle through the back loop, leaving the stitch on the needle.\n4. Knit the first stitch on left needle, completing the stitch and taking both the first and second stitch off the left needle.\nRepeat Steps 2 – 4 around to beginning of round marker.

{"text": "Clover Tracing Wheel - Serrated Edge\nThe Clover Tracing Wheel is an essential tool for copying your original indie and commercial sewing patterns. Instead on tracing the patterns in the conventional way, the Hemline Dressmakers' Carbon paper will allow you to trace around the pattern pieces with a tracing wheel, with the markings transferring on to paper.\nFor transferring the pattern outline directly on to the fabric:\n- Use a scrap to test transfer (markings are permanent)\n- Place the Hemline Dressmakers' carbon paper, carbon side of the sheet face down on the wrong side of the fabric, and then put your paper sewing pattern on top.\n- Use a tracing wheel, such as the Serrated and Blunt Clover Tracing Wheels, and follow the outline of the pattern pieces. The Serrated wheel will leave small dots, and the blunt edge will leave bigger dashes.\n- Also use the same process for transferring dart and pleat markings, pocket placement etc.\nFor transferring the pattern outline onto tracing paper:\nWhile you can use carbon paper to transfer a pattern and markings straight onto fabric (using a Clover tracing wheel), many sewists use this transfer method to copy their original indie and commercial sewing patterns. Place the Hemline Dressmakers' Carbon Paper under the original pattern, carbon side facing down, and then under the carbon paper you place the tracing paper. As you apply pressure with the tracing wheel, as you go around the pattern pieces, the outline of the pattern will be transferred to the tracing paper.

{"text": "A collaboration on a global scale, the French luxury-goods maker Hermès has teamed up with the Australian industrial designer Marc Newson and the Japanese writing-instrument company Pilot to create the Hermès Nautilus pen. Though Hermès has created a number of desk accessories in the past, including stationery, leather mouse pads, and even a pencil, the Nautilus is the first pen from the 177-year-old brand.\nThe project began in 2009 with a meeting between Hermès’s artistic director, Pierre-Alexis Dumas, and Mark Newson, during which the two discovered a shared love for the retractable-nib pens that Pilot first created in 1964. Both men also shared an aesthetic sensibility shaped in part by the works of science-fiction writers like Jules Verne—the pen itself takes its name from Captain Nemo’s submarine in Twenty Thousand Leagues under the Sea. After working on the design for a year, the pair traveled to Japan to enlist Pilot’s help in manufacturing the pen.\nThe resulting writing instrument is the essence of simplicity, with smooth curved lines, no clip, and a hidden nib that extends and retracts with a gentle twist of the barrel. The pen is made from aluminum and stainless steel, and its barrel is semicircular on one side and flat on the other, giving it a horseshoe-shaped cross section—perhaps a nod to Hermès’s heritage as a saddlemaker. Each pen can be supplemented with a calfskin-leather case (for an extra $500) that carries additional ink cartridges in special colors like H red, ebony, and Hermès blood orange. The Nautilus is available as either a fountain pen ($1,650) or a roller ball ($1,350) and comes in three colors: black, blue, and burgundy. (www.hermes.com)", "label": "Yes"}

{"text": "Man, this round is taking forever. I feel like I should be done tatting it, but I'm only about half way around. I have, however, taken a few breaks from tatting, so that is probably a big part of why I'm not done with this round. I went on a camping trip last weekend with my dad, his girlfriend and my brother so I didn't get any tatting done then. The doily isn't exactly a portable item anymore, and I didn't want to risk it getting damaged, dirty or smokey smelling. I took the socks I've been slowly working on and some crochet projects. I ended up working on the crochet projects. As it happens, I continued working on crochet projects for most of this past week. I also discovered a new crochet technique which I'll hopefully get to.\nNot really much to say about the Monsterpiece Doily.\nAs you can see, I am almost halfway around the doily. As I said, it's taking forever to complete. On the plus side, I have the pattern memorized for the most part so I don't have to constantly look at my written notes now. Since I'm waiting for a book arrive, I hope to continue working on the doily. Thread stats: Manuela no. 20 colour #a055.\nOn the crochet front, I managed to finish or almost finish several projects. The first is a cycling cap. It looked kinda cool, but I don't know if I will actually wear it though.\nThis isn't quite finished. I need to stop at a fabric store to get some interfacing to stiffen the brim. If/when I get to that point, I'll share a photo of it being worn. I used some Knit Picks Wool of the Andes Superwash yarn in Camel Heather. The pattern is on Ravelry/loveknitting.com by Emma of Steel and Stitch.\nThe next item are crocheted Beer Cozies.\nI don't know if it was me or what, but pattern didn't quite work for me. The cozy on the left is made as the pattern is written, using two strands of worsted weight cotton yarn and a 4 mm hook. It is way too big. I may wrong, but I don't think the size of beer/pop cans differs significantly between the US and Canada. The can I used is 355 ml which is equal to 12 ounces, which I think is a standard can size. The cozy on the right is made following the pattern with an extra row using one strand of cotton yarn and a 3.5 mm hook. It fits the cans perfectly, though it is not as thick as the other one. I'll probably have another go at this pattern later, as I do like it and it would make great guy friendly gifts. I used Bernat Cot'n Corn yarn for the cozy on the left and Bernat Handicrafter yarn for the blue one. The pattern is by Pan and can be found on Crafty here.\nThe last crochet item is more of a sneak peek of more to come.\nYes, they are coasters, but its how they are made that is special. They were made using the technique of \"Hard Crochet\". That is, using specific yarns and a very specific hook size (2.75 mm) to create a crocheted fabric that is stiff and can hold its shape without the used of stiffeners. The coaster on the left isn't quite right, as my gauge was out, and the coaster isn't as stiff as it should be. The one on the right is in the right gauge range. Both coasters were made using Red Heart Super Saver yarn. The technique comes from the book Hard Crochet by Mark Dittrick. You can see the book on Amazon here. I came across the book accidentally-I think Amazon actually suggested it to me. I'll go into more detail another time, but if you are curious and want to learn more, Sandy Marie of Mom's Crochet has been working on modernizing the technique. You can find her hard crochet tutorial here. She has several patterns available using the technique, including the coasters above, and you will see another one of her designs once I get the yarn. I also have many ideas for this technique too and will of course try some of the patterns from the book when it arrives. Stay tuned.\nThat's it for now. I'll try and post a few photos from my camping trip in my next post. I got a pretty bad sunburn which I'm still nursing. Till next time.", "label": "Yes"}

It has a memory of 16 GB with about 2 GB of memory being reserved only for system files, the memory can be expanded to up to 128 GB. The most exclusive feature of the Samsung S5 is that it is water proof and once the flap covering the charging point has been closed, you can actually drop it into water and it will work fine after that.\nThe phone lets out a beep alarm if the water resistant covers have not been closed properly.

The camera has been upgraded to a whopping 16 mega pixels and makes it the best smart phone yet to hit the market.\nThis is arguably the biggest release from Samsung this year but it does have to compete with rivals from Apple, LG. there are plenty of upgrades that make the phone a powerful and very useful one such as an improved screen, a redesigned software and a better camera.\nThere are some downsides in the S5-for example, the heart rate sensor seems pointless for most users, the fingerprint scanner seems to be a bit too tricky to handle. The screen is AMOLED as it is brighter and clearer, and most of the improvements in the S% can also be found in the latest smart phone offerings from HTC and Sony.\nDespite this, the Samsung S5 is a great alternative for the HTC and Sony phones but it is a less stylish one and you will also have to get used to the many foibles of the TouchWiz interface.

{"text": "Sasanian Minting Practices\nThe Sasanian Empire's minting practices\nWhile Iranian kings had minted coins from the early Achaemenid period, the Sasanian dynasty mastered the art of coin-making. The first Sasanian coins were minted by Ardashir I after his rebellion against the Arsacids. He modified the Arsacid design, placing an anchoring image on each side: a royal portrait on the obverse and a Zoroastrian fire altar flanked by soldiers on the reverse. By doing so, he created a clear association between state and “church,” or more accurately, the office of the king and the Zoroastrian faith. Ardashir's successors used this template for their own coins, though each modified it in some way to reflect his accomplishments and values. While the fire altar image remained largely unchanged, the royal portraits evolved to mark each new reign. Incoming Sasanian monarchs chose a new crown for themselves, often featuring architectural, animal, or astral symbols. The minor differences between the royal crowns make each member of the dynasty easily identifiable (check out our \"Activities\" page to view a chart depicting every Sasanian crown).\nThe Sasanians built a sophisticated mint network to produce their coins. Under their rule, coin minting operations were highly centralized. This is reflected not only in the unique designs created for every ruler, but also in the remarkable consistency found throughout the Sasanian monetary system. In addition to stylistic benchmarks, Sasanian coins were nearly identical in terms of design, denomination, material, and weight. The only thing differentiating a coin minted in the empire's western regions from one minted in the east was the \"mint mark\" - an abbreviation, in Pahlavi (Middle Persian), of the coin's place of origin. The increasing number of mints which were established and incorporated into the coin-minting network, demonstrated the organizational efficiency and administrative power wielded by the Sasanian king and his court.", "label": "Yes"}

{"text": "Photoshop academic: why to apply photoshop\nWith regards to photograph enhancing, adobe photoshop is known as enterprise trendy. its use is barely exceptional from other software’s, as many people have problems with how to get started. even after analyzing the ebook or using the video academic, it appears as though something is lacking. photoshop tutorials are being released to assist with this. the gain of this type of education on the internet is that the pupil can easily ask any questions. one pupil can also communicate with some other.\nFirst, permit’s get a few preferred dialogues, first query. why use photoshop\nWhat’s photoshop? although no longer precisely accurate, each person has some ideas. even the individual that does not use a computer. that is what its recognition says. in a phrase, the world’s number one software for photo editing. on this manner, the problem is cleared up more than it’s miles a hoax. what are photograph modifying matters? who does it? why do I want it? and so on.\nImage layout, whose job it is to paintings as a clothier or to earn money, they use photoshop for advertising, leaflets, magazines, book covers, posters, all kinds of layout work. the whole thing is outlined, something is proven on television, the whole lot is placed on the net, there is a danger to work in photoshop.\nFolks that paintings on video enhancing or animation have to paintings here. for use on 3D models, the entirety from material to 3-D portray, computer graphics may be executed in photoshop.\nProgrammers, web designers take photos of them in photoshop. photographers pair their pictures in photoshop.\nIf none of that is what you want, consider the interest. there’s without a doubt interest in taking photos on digital cameras (or on a cell smartphone). and be aware that your image does not shine vivid, like an image in a wealthy magazine. they use pricey cameras, but another thing to say is that the photo isn’t always honest, even after remembering that it is efficient. the activity is done in photoshop (or the sort of software program).\nOr need to provide someone your card in wedding ceremony-birthday-eid-Christmas-worship. need to put an image of yourself or a person you adore or a picture of your flower. you may try this within the pleasant software program.\nAnd in case you flow directly to bigger matters, like virtual painting then photoshop. consider the image at the canvas as one of those who have carried out repute. everything they use can be utilized in photoshop.\nPhotoshop is in which the image is right now. print, net, multimedia, video anywhere.\nPhotoshop is all correct, the exceptional component to do, understanding that every other element is better. its not very clean to use. there are many image editing software programs to be had which might be simpler to apply than photoshop. photoshop has been created for specialists.\nSo if you want to get the first-class results with the satisfactory software program then you have to spend some more time, attempt, expertise. it’s far only after years of effort that one becomes gifted in photoshop. if there are objections, it’s miles higher to select a simple software program.\nCurrently the ultra-modern model of photoshop cs-1. you can ask if the final model isn’t required or if the preceding version will work. the new edition method more effective computers.\nPeople who do painting work use the vintage version. for example, the biggest comedian maker inside the international makes use of model 7 or 5 using marvel. ask acquainted image designers in the event that they recognize that in addition, they use an older version. in maximum cases, version 5. so that you do not have to use the modern version. there may be no cause to assume that the vintage model has the entirety in the antique version. because the cs3 model has the opportunity to apply 3D, there are many new special functions, inclusive of clever fill. even the quality use of advanced pictures playing cards for the pleasant overall performance is available. those blessings can’t be located in the old concept.\nLet’s make it easy. if feasible use the new version. if the laptop isn’t powerful enough then there may be no harm in the old model. all of the essential paintings may be achieved. any model after version 1.zero may be used.\nPhotoshop works in addition to home windows and mac. these tutorials are for home windows but you could without problems work on mac. so the first factor you want is a pc on a windows or mac working machine. installing photoshop software there.\nNew edition photoshop is quite big software. therefore, it desires to have a strong processor, sufficient memory, and sufficient space at the hard disk. if shopping for a brand new pc, look for things like faster processors, greater memory, larger video display units, higher portraits cards, And many others. advanced mouse calls for precise work. the use of pressurized touchy photo pills (can be waxed) for drawing will make working greater stunning and best.\nA scanner is required to apply snapshots from paper. except, I want to have a camera if I want to take snapshots. virtual cameras are extra convenient than film cameras.\nIf the whole lot isn’t cited, start running only with photoshop hooked up on your computer.\nBefore using photoshop, understand some theoretical records. the pics that we see on the laptop are duplicate, bitmaps, and vectors. photoshop works with a bitmap picture and alternatively works with a software program like illustrator, Corel draw, and vector. evaluate the bitmap with the colored picture and the vector with the pencil picture (though there are variations). you can not change it after putting a spot on the bitmap in plain language, it could be changed from vector to bend.\nA bitmap image is created with a small dot known as a pixel. if you appearance intently at the newspaper photos, you may see that they’re manufactured from small dots. they’re seen while the density of the dot is low, the dot isn’t always understood if it is excessive. the better the density, the better the image first-class.\nThe dimensions of the photo are calculated on a pc display or some other display with a pixel. in case your display’s resolution is 124-1, then a photo of 524-6 pixels will be incomplete view at five% view. the print time is calculated in inches or centimeters. the scale of any picture may be adjusted in photoshop, though it’s going to continually be displayed on the display as a pixel.\nPhotoshop’s personal record layout PSD (photoshop record). this means that through giving the direct shop command, it will likely be stored on this layout. this layout provides the first-rate value. the disadvantage is that it calls for photoshop to be used and the document length is just too big.\nTrendy format jpeg (jpg, jpeg) for use everywhere. the document length may be without problems scaled down. useful for different computers, web, multimedia, etc. the save as command must be saved in this format.\nJpeg layout is not used for print because the photo pleasant is corrupted. if photoshop’s design is meant for print, then use photoshop or tiff or every other handy format.\nInside the bitmap, there are numerous pix like images that aren’t available in vector layout. the trouble with bitmaps, however, is that it breaks whilst enlarged (in the traditional language). that is not the case with vectors. regardless of how huge it’s far, the value remains equal. adobe’s vector-based software illustrator is used to help with unmarried.\nAllow’s have a look at real examples. you’re growing a touring card in photoshop. photoshop is captivating and everything

from this problem, if you change the font to a photograph, it’ll appear broken.

{"text": "It is easier to design a growbox yourself than it seems. And it is not necessary to design it at all. Any wardrobe, drawer unit or small pantry will do. If there is nothing suitable, the structure can be assembled from chipboard sheets. The main thing is that there is enough space for plants inside.\nTo improve the quality of cannabis lighting, the inner surface of the grow box is sheathed with reflective material. It can be foil, penofol or white acrylic paint.\nLighting in a growbox\nWhen choosing a light source for a grow box, it should be borne in mind that the heat emanating from the lamp negatively affects the internal microclimate. A lamp close to the plants can burn them. An incandescent lamp should be excluded immediately, as it is not suitable for plants in terms of light spectra and emits too much heat.\nSuitable lamps for grow boxes are:\nHPS – light spectra are favorable for plants, but the lamp heats up very much and is environmentally dangerous;\nESL – it is better to install two such lamps, at 2700k and at 6400k. Then the plants will receive lighting suitable for the spectra. ELS lamps almost do not heat up and do not harm plants;\nLED – emit uniform light, do not heat up, economical, suitable for plants. Not so long ago, special LED lamps appeared on the market, which emit light of only the required spectrum;\nSince the grower will have to maintain a constant cannabis light regime in the growbox, to simplify the task, you can set a timer that will independently turn on and off the lighting according to a given schedule.\nThe main task of ventilation is to remove hot air and renew the interior. Any fan will work for a grow box, but a duct fan is most commonly used. The main thing is that it makes as little noise as possible.\nConditions for growing cannabis in a grow box\nInside the growbox, its own microclimate is created, on which the growth and yield of the planted plants directly depends. Therefore, it is necessary to create the best growing conditions suitable specifically for cannabis.\nThe temperature in the grow box must always remain constant and be between +18 and +27 degrees. When the light is off, the temperature can drop to the lower mark, when it is on, it is advisable to keep it at +24 degrees. This temperature is considered to be the most favorable for cannabis.\nThe required light regime depends on the variety of the variety. If the cannabis variety is autoflowering, then during its entire life cycle, the day should be 18 hours, and the night – 6 hours. Photoperiodic varieties require different light conditions for the growing and flowering stages – 18/6 and 12/12, respectively.\nThe optimum humidity is considered to be 40-60%. However, to reduce the risk of bud formation during the flowering stage, it is best to keep buds between 45% and 55%.\nFor plants to grow healthy and enjoy a bountiful harvest, they need minerals and trace elements. The main minerals for feeding are nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium.\nPhosphorus is essential for marijuana during the flowering stage. It influences the formation of cones, promotes the growth of roots and inflorescences.\nNitrogen is essential during the growing season – it contributes to the development and growth of the plant.\nPotassium is responsible for plant immunity, promotes the movement of nutrients, and improves the quality of the crop.\nPH and EC\nThe acidity (pH) indicator monitors the available amount of ionic elements that cannabis needs for healthy growth. Cannabis grows well at a pH of 5.5-6.5.\nThe conductivity index (EC) is used to determine the concentration of nutrients (salts) in the soil. This indicator must be maintained at a stable level so that the plant does not suffer from an excess of nutrients. The EC value must be between 0.75 and 2.0.\nFinally, I would like to add that not every grower wants to spend time and effort creating a grow box. Especially if you don’t have the right materials at hand. In this case, a ready-made solution will come to the rescue – growbox 80-250 Cocos. Along with the awning itself, the set includes lamps, ventilation, automation, a tissue pot with a substrate, devices for monitoring pH and EC levels, fertilizers, calibration solutions and special additional equipment. It has everything a gardener needs to start a carefree grower’s career.", "label": "Yes"}

{"text": "Bathrooms experience high levels of humidity and moisture despite the installation of exhaust fans and ceiling fans. For this reason, bathroom door materials should be chosen with careful consideration to ensure that you don't end up putting in too much work to maintain them and extend their usable life. Polyvinyl chloride, commonly known as PVC, is one of the best materials that you should consider using for your bathroom doors. PVC has the following features that make it a worthwhile investment during your bathroom renovation project.\nPVC is a man-made plastic material that does not degrade in the presence of moisture. This makes it superior to wood and other materials that contain absorbent fibers which can degrade in value when exposed to water and humidity environments. With no natural fibers to absorb water, problems of rotting, warping, and mold growth is eliminated, and your bathroom door can last for years without showing any physical signs of degradation due to exposure to moisture.\nLow maintenance requirements\nMany homeowners hardly pay attention to the maintenance needs of their bathroom doors. Instead, they are occupied with exterior doors and windows which are paramount to maintain the security of the home. Choosing a high-maintenance material such as wood for the bathroom door is a bad idea unless you are up for the task. Why not opt for PVC which is practically maintenance free. Wiping the door clean every once in a while is all you need to maintain its aesthetics.\nMany people choose corrosion resistant metals such as steel and aluminium for their interior and exterior doors. However, even the metals with high corrosion resistance can corrode if they are poorly maintained or exposed to weather and corrosive elements. PVC is an anti-corrosive material, which means that it cannot corrode or rust regardless of the environment it is exposed to. This makes them the suitable option for bathroom doors since the humid environments can degrade most metals over time. Also, chemical spills from bathroom products cannot eat into the plastic as they do with metal.\nAesthetics are an essential aspect of every interior fixture, and you should ensure that your bathroom doors complement your bathroom design. PVC doors can be painted in any color to match or complement your home or bathroom décor. You can also get creative with patterns and textures to achieve a particular rustic, modern, contemporary, or country look. PVC bathroom doors can even be painted to mimic other materials such as wood or stone.\nBathrooms are heavy traffic areas that experience high levels of humidity. PVC material can give you a functional and durable bathroom door without worrying about aesthetics and high maintenance requirements.Share\n24 August 2016\nAlmost everybody engages with industry and manufacturing in some way or another.

{"text": "Canonical, the company behind the highly popular Ubuntu Linux distribution, unveiled its Ubuntu Netbook Remix yesterday at the Computex show in Taiwan. The Remix is based on Ubuntu Mobile Edition and is designed specifically for mobile computers with a subnotebook form factor.\nThe Asus Eee PC completely changed the game for budget mobile computing. Following in the wake of the Eee's success, a number of competing products have emerged with similar features and pricing models. Many of these are offered with some version of the open-source Linux operating system. A customizable Ubuntu-based platform that is designed specifically for such systems could attract considerable interest from hardware makers.\nAlthough the Remix hasn't been released yet in its entirety, the source code is already available for several core components of the unique user interface. We managed to put the pieces together and get a working Netbook Remix desktop environment running on a regular Ubuntu 8.04 system. Unlike the Maemo interface, which uses the lightweight Matchbox window manager, the Remix interface is designed to overlay seamlessly on top of Ubuntu's conventional GNOME desktop environment. The implementation is, overall, quite ingenious in many ways, but there are still places where it feels a bit clunky. The project is clearly early in its development and we will likely see the rough spots even out as it evolves.\nReady to launch\nThe heart of the Remix user interface is its customized Ubuntu Mobile Edition (UME) Launcher which replaces the desktop and provides access to applications and other important system functionality. A series of application categories are displayed on the left side of the launcher and each category provides access to a set of application icons. Conceptually, it is very similar to the Eee's basic mode interface. The contents of the launcher, like the categories and the applications they contain, are taken directly from GNOME's main menu.\nThe layout and design of the launcher is effective and it is very easy to use. The large size of the buttons makes it finger-friendly, so it will work well on touch-screen devices. Aesthetically, the launcher has a lot of nice visual flourishes like gradients, translucency, and subtle animations, but those are drowned out by the fecal brown that is typical of Ubuntu artwork. Although the launcher is strong conceptually, the implementation still needs some work. The icons look blurry, the text is too small, and the whole thing is a bit too sluggish and processor-hungry. These mostly seem like kinks that can be worked out, so there are no intractable problems.\nA glance at the source code reveals that the launcher is programmed in C and uses Clutter, a highly promising rich graphical interface library designed by OpenedHand that is built with OpenGL and provides a GObject-based API. Clutter is still fairly new but is generating considerable excitement in the GNOME development community because it supplies a lot of much-needed graphics functionality that simply isn't supported natively by GTK+. Several prominent GNOME developers have advocated making Clutter a central piece in the next-generation GTK+ toolkit. Clutter is already being used on the desktop by Ubuntu eye-candy expert Mirco Muller to create Ubuntu's experimental new GDM face browser.\nThe version control system commit logs indicate that a lot of the programming on the launcher is being done by Neil Patel, a software developer who is well-respected in the Ubuntu community and was recently hired by Canonical. Patel is known for his work on the Avant Window Navigator, a very nice Mac OS X panel clone for Linux that takes advantage of cutting-edge compositing functionality and is currently in vogue among GNOME users.\nThe other major component of the Remix user interface is its unusual window switcher, which is designed to mimic the look and feel of tabs. Program windows are all permanently maximized. Each window places an icon in the window switcher bar and the active window is highlighted as though it is a selected tab. To the right of the icons, the rest of the space is taken up by a single tab that displays the title of the active window and a close button. This is a lot like the way that the Matchbox window manager works in the Maemo environment, except that the window icons are at the top instead of along the side.\nThe window switcher implementation in the Remix interface is particularly clever. The black bar at the top of the window is a regular GNOME panel and the window switcher tab bar is a panel applet. The permanently-maximized window state is handled by a program called Maximus that runs silently in the background. The Remix environment is still using the regular old Metacity window manager. Users access the launcher by clicking the Home panel applet, which is the Ubuntu logo in the top left-hand corner. The developers were able to create a completely different windowing experience by repurposing standard GNOME components. It's a good approach, because it gives the user a lot of flexibility and makes it possible to keep the regular GNOME panel system.\nAlthough the windowing model is good for devices with small screens and the implementation is clever, the Maximus program is still a bit of a hack and doesn't really work well in certain corner cases. The most visible place where it breaks down is when testing The GIMP, which uses floating palettes. These get maximized and overlap each other, obscuring the main program content and making it impossible to use. Those kinds of bugs will have to be worked out before the software is ready for widespread adoption.\nThe Netbook Remix is more than just a pretty face. The Remix will also provide extensive support for hardware components typically found in subnotebook computers. Canonical has worked closely with Intel through the Moblin initiative to ensure strong support for the Atom processor. Intel hopes that Atom will be used with Linux in a wide variety of contexts including Mobile Internet Devices and even vehicle \"infotainment\" systems.\n\"At Intel, we see netbooks as an opportunity to expand basic Internet usage throughout the world through simple and affordable devices for consumers,\" said Intel software and solutions group vice president Doug Fisher in a statement. \"The combination of Ubuntu Netbook Remix with Moblin technologies optimized for the Intel Atom processor will deliver a good Internet and media experience on Intel-based netbooks.\"\nCanonical's mobile strategy\nThe Netbook Remix is part of Canonical's broader strategy for Ubuntu mobility. The company has also partnered with Nokia to work on an experimental Ubuntu ARM port that will bring the distribution to Nokia's Internet Tablet devices and similar products. According to Ubuntu founder Mark Shuttleworth, portable computing is a high priority for Ubuntu 8.10—codenamed Intrepid Ibex—which is scheduled for release in October.\n\"Our goal is to deliver a superb user experience while making it simple and cost-effective for device manufacturers to be able to bring their devices to the consumer marketplace,\" Shuttleworth said in a statement. \"Ubuntu has in a very short period transformed the perception of the Linux desktop experience. Many more people will experience Linux for the first time through these devices so working with Canonical, using our UI and leveraging software from the Moblin project is the best way to ensure the netbook experience is a success.\"\nCanonical is positioning itself to take the lead on software in the subnotebook market, but a big piece of the puzzle is still absent: customers. Although Canonical is working closely with Intel on reference designs, there is no word yet about potential commercial adopters for the Netbook Remix. No major OEMs have revealed plans to use it yet and Canonical is still actively looking for new partners in the hardware space. Regardless of whether it gets picked up by hardware makers like Asus, it is sure to be a big hit with Ubuntu's fans. The fact that so many users are installing the regular desktop version of Ubuntu on their Eee laptops is strong indication that there is demand for Ubuntu on subnotebooks.\nFor additional discussion about Linux-based mobile computing, I invite you to join me and Intel open source technologist Derek Speed in the Directions Symposium.", "label": "Yes"}

{"text": "Unless you’re planning any of these special events below, you may have to focus your creativity on other party planning ideas.\n|personalized custom beverage napkins|\nIf you happen to be planning one of these events, here are some ways you can use personalized supplies to make your client’s experience unique.\nThere’s nothing like custom beverage napkins with the bride and groom’s faces on it on a wedding day. It may be cheesy, but it’s one way to remind everyone that it’s their day. And if that’s not the print that they want, the couple can always think of other things to print on their wedding supplies. For example, they could have special quotes from their vows printed on utensils. They can have nuptial photos printed on souvenirs like cups and mugs. Because getting printed supplies for weddings is not an uncommon practice, you can even negotiate prices with the printing company for smaller weddings.\nOn the other hand, debuts are even more grandeur, especially for high-society communities. On the day a young woman turns 18, she has to dress up pretty and perform in front of a whole audience. Other traditions allow young women to celebrate their debuts with a bunch of other celebrants. For high class events like these, elegant, printed napkins are a definite must-have. There won’t be any colorful prints or grand images, but since the event will require delicate China, it’s only fitting that the utensils are matched with high-class, event-appropriate accessories.\nHave you heard of a restaurant that doesn’t have its own personalized supplies? Most restaurants that want to survive the business have to invest in its own supplies. If they haven’t started printing plates and cups, they will have to do it soon because getting people to see their logo is part of the branding process. Restaurants usually aim for customized plates, cups, utensils and even personalized napkins. Bigger restaurants and franchises need these personalized supplies for marketing and branding purposes.\n4. Children’s Birthday Parties\nBirthday parties are fun to plan. If you’re aiming for Disney or cartoon themes for the party, then you can definitely count on personalized supplies to keep the kids entertained. Some stores sell ready-made printed cups and plates for special occasions. But if your client wants a different kind of design, you can always get a supplier of affordable cups and plates to help you print the designs you want.", "label": "Yes"}

Intracanal monitors BD4.2 from the company Lear performed using 6 radiators in each earpiece, 2 of them – dynamic and 4 – with balanced armature (rebar). In addition, the headphones are made in an unusual open IEM embodiment, as well as possess the function of adjusting the bass.\nI have already talked about the company Lear in the review of their gorgeous headphones LUF-4 , so I will not repeat too much, you can read the previous review. In short, the experience in manufacturing IEM company has, therefore, with the ambitious idea of BD4.2 was implemented very successfully. The fact that in this flagship model uses an unexpected dynamic scheme with two radiators and a special acoustic low-pass filter. Traditionally, the “reinforcement” provide mid and high frequencies with the necessary detail and clarity, and dynamic emitters – energetic percussive bass. But innovation is not limited to Lear unusual choice of radiators.\nСнова с X5\nBD4.2 use four separate the sound: two for bass, one for medium and one for high frequencies, while the last two are inside the metal tubes that remove unwanted resonance of the sound with acrylic housing. Radiators for bass made without it, because the LF is not affected by this issue. Such a construction, firstly avoids unpredictable interference of sound waves, and secondly, if desired, allows users to customize sound using acoustic filters.\nAlso BD4.2 will please the buyer the ability to change the amount of bass with a special controller in their rear. A simple turn of a screwdriver to complete, you can turn BD4.2, as in the neutral-monitor solution, and in the incredible bassist headphones that will satisfy the most avid “baskhedov.” Of course, there are plenty of intermediate options.\nOrder BD4.2 as possible in the universal body, and in the form of “custom bikes”, ie headphones, molded from a cast of your ear. The last option for $ 140 more expensive than the already very expensive generic version (the price is very tangible in 1260 dollars), but it is clearly preferable as an ideal soundproofing and landing for these headphones is very important to maximize the quality of sound.\nOf course, with a price tag of BD4.2 attributable to the segment absolutely top solutions, few other headphones can compete with them on price. This is – the choice of those who want to get an uncompromising solution and is willing to give him any money. What does a Lear instead?\nImpedance: 8Ω – 33Ω @ 1 KHz\nFrequency Response: 20 Hz – 20 kHz\nRadiators: 2 dynamic, 4 rebar in each earpiece\nCable: Removable, symmetrical, 1.3 m\nPackaging and delivery\nBD4.2 immediately give the impression of a very expensive device (otherwise they can not be). Stylish black box of cardboard with silver embossed hides the inner case. His role is played by high-impact plastic PelicanCase, reliably protects the headphones from damage. Also included was a place for a velvety cover on puffs, a microfiber cloth to clean the headphone jack, a small screwdriver to adjust the bass, brush with a loop for cleaning and a large assortment of accessories. Last complete put a lot because in the universal headphone housing is harder to pick up, and a variety of attachments for different effects on the sound. Complete with BD4.2 you get the following tips:\nTrehflantsevye silicone. Are the reference option, recommended by the Lear, if your ears allow them deep landing.\nDouble-flange silicone. Neutral-balanced sound.\nSingle flange silicone in several sizes. Bright sound, rich HF.\nTapered foam. Neutral warm sound\nFoam rounded. Warm and dark sound with an emphasis on bass.\nSeparate kind words deserves the supplied cable. This is a proprietary development of Lear, cable, made of silver-plated copper. In English it is called «tinsel wire», and the literal translation of “tinsel” it is quite suitable. The cord is very light and soft, but durable and not prone to tangling and microphone effect. A special coating protects it from oxidation and discoloration, ensuring that your cable will always be silver-shiny. Part, directly adjacent to the terminals provided with a memory effect that allows you to create a comfortable “zaushiny.”\nDesign and comfortable to wear\nSince BD4.2 exist in the universal and of Custom versions, they are made of transparent acrylic. Workmanship – at the highest level, there is no trace of poor casting or errors. developers offer a wide choice of colors, as well as the extra money can make the outside of the headphones (so-called feyspleyty) of carbon fiber, denim, wood and many other materials. This option is called True Texture and looks just fine. BD4.2, the former in my review, made in the option “default” of a transparent dark gray acrylic on the outside – the golden logo of the manufacturer.\nIn these headphones transparent body – the same design element, such as special windows in Swiss watches. A very complex internal structure BD4.2 interesting to consider – in a lot of radiators, sound guides and crossover elements, obtained here is decoration for avid gadzhetomana.\nHeadphones are large enough, in fact taken in a lot of things, so make them smaller volume – hard physically. In Lear rightly decided that there should be a good fit, and the headphones did a relatively small area. The entire volume has been achieved due to the increase of thickness monitors, they are quite noticeably protrude from the ears, but it is the case that would not otherwise happen.\nКрупно с насадкой\nWith proper selection of nozzles headphones worn very comfortably even extended listening does not cause problems. Despite the presence of a vent in the back of BD4.2, next to the low-frequency sound insulation on a very good level.\nTo listen to the following equipment:\nResonessense Labs Concero HP as a DAC and headphone amplifier;\nApple MacBook Pro Retina 2013 as a source;\nAudirvana Plus 2.0.1 as a player;\nHiFiMan 901 and Fiio X5 as portable players;\nVSonic Gr01 and HiFiMan Re600 as headphones for comparison;\nRecording high-resolution Lossless-formats (Dr. Chesky The Ultimate Headphone Demonstration Disc and others).\nIt should be borne in mind that the description of the sound of these headphones, I “found fault” to them more than usual, because the high price simply requires them to be better than the model in 2 or more times cheaper. All that I have said below – it is rather a feature of their sound, rather than disadvantages. In developing BD4.2 (incidentally, this is not the first revision), as well as in many foods such level, the master tried to achieve not only the incredible quality, but also to show their vision. I can say that they did it: headphones sound very high quality, but they have a unique sound signature.\nHome Terms produce absolute returns from BD4.2 – is to ensure their proper fit with complete isolation. Desired landing you can easily “recognize” the vacuum that will be obtained when trying to get the headphones. Simply put, the headphones should accrue to the smacking sound. Do not be afraid to experiment with nozzles incompleteness, I’ve heard good reviews about the sound of the headphones with hybrid nozzles (silicone foam under it), but the real field for experimentation – a lot more. The second option – just order a custom version of BD4.2, once devoid of these problems.\nI for myself have found the optimal sound using trehflantsevye nozzle.\nBass control, used in BD4.2, surprises with its efficiency. Setting is performed in the LF range up to 1 kHz (generally, of course, is much lower), and allows to adjust the level of the low frequency range up to 24 dB. At the minimum position you get the MF and HF with a minimal amount of bass, achieving almost the monitor sound. This option is not for me, but sometimes it sounds very interesting, for example, on vocal compositions or recordings of small string ensembles. In maximum position you get a bass lover’s dream: two dynamic transducer with a proprietary acoustic filter can give as much bass, that will not find anyone.\nAfter experimenting with the bass control I left it in the position for 8 hours, and it gave me the following sound.\nLF is very shock, it is felt that the two dynamic drivers shake a considerable volume of air, giving him as articulate and collected bass. Some entries, such as Japanese drummers of Ondekoza, sound completely vovlekayusche, no other headphone insert have not been able to create a clear picture of the different sound of the drums. Of course, clean reinforcing headphones little benefit in terms of resolution of LF, but they very much lack the power and musicality of the bass, so I think that hybrid headphones still benefit from the perception of bass and BD4.2 bypass all that I have heard.\nMids – also on the level. Every nuance of the music and the harmonic voices – passed very well. The main thing in the MF at BD4.2 find position bass control, which will suit you, and they will reveal all the details: rustles lecterns with notes, creaking chairs, fingers on the strings, and much more. Instruments are well separated, perfectly positioned in the space, their character is transmitted with the required accuracy.\nTreble – detailed, clearly defined, to complain about their lack of just do not have, in a poorly recorded tracks they might be even a lot, which can cause sibilance. But if your audio material is of decent quality, then be unhappy RF you do not have: the headphones act out the slightest reverberation, damping and light airy notes on the abolition of the level. Composition just filled with air. If you like a darker supply – acoustic filter or resistor will allow you to mute the RF to the desired amount.\nС Fiio X5\nVery good BD4.2 cope with the transmission volume: spatial positioning of objects clear, and the group whose music is filled with special effects (for example, Yello and Enigma), – sound great.\nС Concero PH\nNaturally, headphones are universal genre, no problem they will give any music from energetic metal and easy to chamber ensemble. In some cases, you can use the adjustment of bass, but for me personally comfortable position at 8:00 is versatile and suitable for all.\nHeadphones are absolutely not designed for use with low-quality sources and records of poor quality. All material deficiencies will be served to you with maximum sincerity and directness. But, in general, buying headphones for the money – obviously need to be concerned about acquiring a good player or DAC to the amplifier. Headphones shows extremely sources with low output impedance (less than 1Ω), otherwise the amount of HF will decrease (although it can if desired be used to produce softer sound).\nС Concero PH 2\nAt an altitude showed himself Concero HP from Resonessense Labs, proving once again that it is ideal for a variety of IEM.\nAs befits a flagship present, Lear BD4.2 are expensive, well made, play very well and pleasing user innovativeness. This headphones, which are unlikely to get bored you with their sound even if the usual sound pall, you can use the bass control, other nozzles, acoustic filters of the sound, and even connect them through a resistor to provide a different character of the sound.\nAnswer this Question\nYou must be Logged In to post an Answer.\nNot a member yet?

Logistically, the details of making this park a reality were much more complex as it would be built over an existing freeway and would require a public fundraising effort. Squires & Company was retained to design a system of fundraising materials and develop a brand that would introduce the park to potential donors, and eventually the general public.\nCategories:Branding, Collateral, Motion Graphics\nIndustries:Community, Non-Profit, Parks & Recreation\nThe campaign began with creating an inspiring trademark. The logo we created symbolizes the fundamental elements that make up the park: air, water, land and people. These elements are reprised graphically throughout the various pieces we crafted–presentation decks, flip book and carrier system, barricade graphics, event graphics, videos and support materials. The park needed to be tangible to potential donors and the materials needed to paint a vivid picture of what was to come.\nIn October 2012, Klyde Warren Park opened to the public and has become a Dallas landmark and an epicenter of activity in the heart of our city. It now exists alongside other great public green spaces like Millenium Park, Bryant Park and Mellon Square.

{"text": "The California Cycleway: A Tollway For Bikes\nThe California Cycleway was a short-lived, tolled, “bike highway”, not unlike the linear parks of today, minus the tolls at least. It first opened in 1900, and was planned to run nine miles in length between Los Angeles and Pasadena, CA.\nDespite its failure, the Cycleway would inspire future highway design, and was an early example of grade separation between pedestrian traffic and automobiles and trains.\n|California Cycleway looking south from Hotel Green, c.1900|\nIts 15 cent toll was too high to attract riders, but too low to fund more than 1.4 miles of construction, of what was a 9 mile proposal, which included a never built casino at one end. The cycleway was financed entirely by private parties, unlike road projects of today.\nWhile the idea sounds far-fetched by today's standards, the world was a much different place in 1908, and no one knew for sure if cars were going to be the way of the future.\nHistorian Peter Norton discussed the parkway with Business Insider, \"Many experts and ordinary people agreed that cars didn't really belong in cities,\" he said. \"They made a lot of sense in the country, but in the city, they demanded too much space, drove pedestrians off the streets, and injured too many people.\" Of course, in the recent decade, people are beginning to re-think vehicle-centric cities and suburbs in favor of transit-oriented design and active transportation.\nThe cycleway closely followed the present day route of the Arroyo-Seco Parkway, or CA-110. One could consider the California Cycleway a predecessor to the movement for modern roads in the early 20th century, which truly began with the Long Island Motor Parkway in 1908, on the complete opposite end of the United States.\nThanks as always for reading!", "label": "Yes"}

{"text": "It's been a while since I last posted, so I have a lot of updates to add!\nFirst off, there was a trip to the Public in West Bromwich to look at the exhibition space we will have. For some years the MA show has always been held here, but Tracey Emin has exhibited here too recently, so the lecturers are abuzz with the extra crowds that will potentially pull into the building while our show is on. However, this is not your traditional art gallery. The Public is really a huge modern multi purpose community building with extensive gallery spaces and interactive exhibits, that specialises in visual media display with loads of flashing lights and projectors and hosts the odd belly dancing class. The architecture is very modern and somewhat whimsical, with a spiralling structure/layout inside, and many of the visitors I have seen have been young families enjoying playing with various cameras and press the button displays. Very clearly this is a place not just for viewing, but joining in, so making my display interactive (through tea drinking) will hopefully appeal to the audience here!\nWe had a good look around to try and find spaces within the building that might suit our work, and to start to work out the practicalities of our display to fit this - or at least, that was the theory! In essence, I had already planned to transplant my own custom made space into the existing space, so all it needed was enough floor and height clearance with a convenient nearby plug socket and good lighting from above. Although in my case, a convenient sink and kitchen area would be preferable!\nThese are some shots of the gallery space often occupied by fine art students. The spaces had good lighting, alcoves, and were very airy with plenty of open spaces, so they had the potential for neatly fitting my installation in, and the contrast between the stark, airy open spaces and my cosy, rustic tea house would have been really interesting and striking to visitors.\nThis spot would have been brilliant, right in the entrance to the upstairs gallery, if it wouldn't have contravened fire exit rules............\nThis is another interesting space just to the side of the entrance which had a lot of nice natural wood around which would have complimented my theme, but it wasn't very convenient; you can see it lacks plug sockets and is off to the side of where people would normally walk.\nThere was also a similar space on the opposite side of the entrance.\nIn the end it was decided the ceramics students would all go in the black room halfway up the spiral, as it has suited previous MA ceramic exhibitions, and we could have a cohesive display in our own space. It turned out that not only I had decided on an installation style display, but at least three other students also wanted to set up installations, and there were others who wanted to use specific displays to help convey the ideas behind their work, so we could all be curated into a kind of tour through different zones and a mini exhibition within an exhibition. It would also mean good plug socket access for me, and access to a kitchen area where I could fill a kettle and boil water. The area also had a dedicated lighting track overhead.\nIt was also the space Tracey Emin was in!\nAs for the tea house, here you can see my scale model before I added the shelves and bamboo beams. This was used to help explain what I wanted to the woodwork technicians who helped me build the full scale version!\nThe design is quite simple, the tea room has a display alcove and a window/ light fitting to help give some atmosphere, and it will allow me to display one set of work in the alcove for viewing while another is out on a tray/low table in the centre being used to serve tea. Luckily, the boards I need to construct the walls were kindly donated/rescued from a trip to the skip, as the university were throwing some out, saving me a cost of £100 for new ones, although they were a bit on the battered side. The bamboo and lighting had also turned up, as well as the washi paper for the window, so I had almost everything I needed. The bamboo looked great, but I had fun fitting it as not a single length was straight!\nI also seemed to have made a miscalculation with the window, as the inner ring did not match up with the outer ones forming a recess where the light would go, but since it fitted the hole made for it, this was not so important. The lighting could be raised up on padding, since the LEDs generate very little heat.\nStage one: Corner wall pieces screwed together\nThe tea house finally under construction in the wood workshop next to the finished scale model.\nAfter all the boards are joined together (the flat sides with butted edges were done last with metal plates and screws) Bryn cut the hole for the window.\nAfter that, it was time to make and fit the distinctive Japanese zig zag shelf.\nAnd then on to drilling the holes for the ties to go through for binding the bamboo beams over the joints they are supposed to conceal. I purchased black linen thread for the purpose for a couple of quid, and it did an admirable job of being both strong enough and vaguely authentic looking. Each tie criss crossed over a joint in the beam to try and imitate Japanese construction techniques. It also helped stop the bamboo moving around, as these are also the fattest parts of the beams.\nAt the end of the day I just piled everything into the tea house for storage ready to finish construction and proceed with painting. As soon as the walls were up the space took on a very den like feel, and it was fun to turn it into a base camp while I was working! Already it felt cosy and intimate, and strangely, personal as well.\nAfter this, the window needed to be painted then glued together, and the wall covering decided on, purchased and applied, which is currently in progress. More about that tomorrow! Night night", "label": "Yes"}

This material is three things at the same time: strong, beautiful, and sturdy. This material is popular because this is perfect for establishing an island or Asian design theme or a traditional theme for the living room. Furniture that use this material will be very expensive as this grass does not grow locally, they have to be imported. Moreover, the process of preparing bamboo for constructing any kind of furniture is a long process that involves stripping bamboo, boiling the strips and gluing the strips together is also what makes bamboo furniture expensive.\nAs a general guideline it is preferable to have a minimum of two feet around each side of the coffee table and it should be reachable, without standing, from each of the seating areas. Some people also suggest that your coffee table should be no larger than sixty percent of your sofas length. The height that you choose very much depends on what you intend to use it for.

{"text": "OFF THE GRID\nWelcome to one of Canada's greenest homes.\nFrom the rough gravel road, the house looks more like a thick underground bomb shelter than a family home.\nMost of the house is buried under tonnes of earth, except for the thick cement walls and windows on the south and west sides. Apart from a small \"room\" that pokes through the grass that covers the sloping roof, most would almost miss the Robinson family's home while driving from the east on Township Road 4.\nThe home's unusual appearance, however, serves a very definite purpose. A labour of love that took one year from groundbreaking to completion, Mike Robinson's new home may very well be the \"greenest\" house in Canada.\n\"It's kind of an accumulation of what I've done for my whole life,\" the environmental engineer said. \"It feels really good. This is fulfilling our dream.\n\"This is our legacy. We're helping educate people.\"\nThe most obvious evidence of the home's \"green-ness\" is the lack of wires connecting the home to the usually ubiquitous power lines. Being completely \"off the grid,\" Robinson's home relies on a combination of solar and wind power to provide the electricity for his flat-screen television and microwave. The combination of the home's small 1.3-kilowatt wind turbine and its three-kilowatt solar array is wired into a 48-volt system of batteries in the nearby garage.\n\"It stores all the power in the battery pack right here,\" Robinson said. \"We're good for a week without any sun or wind. We've got a lot of storage capacity here.\"\nMany people envision \"off-the-grid\" sustainable living as involving some sort of deprivation, imagining Birkenstock-wearing families huddling together for warmth in dank cave-like homes. The reality is far from this misconception.\nThe interior of the Robinson home is, for lack of a better word, stunning. From the finely polished bronze-coloured concrete floors to the parging on the walls, the expansive 223-square-metre (2,400-square-feet) house wouldn't look out of place in Home & Design magazine. One only has to look at the two-person Jacuzzi tub in the Robinson's main-floor bathroom to realize there is very little in the way of deprivation.\n\"I don't think people attribute that to off-grid living,\" said wife Trish Robinson, who was sitting in the living room with their 12-year-old daughter Julie. \"They think you have to compromise.\"\nOf course, all of the appliances and fixtures in the home are the most efficient available. As an added precaution against phantom loads -- the electricity consumed by appliances while supposedly switched off -- Mike Robinson has even installed \"kill switches\" in each room that turn off the outlets. On this particular Tuesday, the control panel in the Robinson living room showed the entire house was consuming about as much power as an average light bulb.\nThe design of the home -- a collaboration between Mike Robinson and Guelph architect David McAuley -- also contributes to its impressive energy efficiency. The almost 45-centimetre-thick core-slab cement blocks and the home's earth covering offer a natural insulation that helps keep the interior temperature at a comfortable level.\n\"It's what's called a net-zero home,\" Mike Robinson said. \"We have no air-conditioning costs and very little heating costs in the winter. The main idea of the house is thermal mass. It's like heating a piece of granite by the fire; it retains the heat for a long, long time.\n\"That's the idea with all the concrete -- no fluctuations in temperature.\"\nThe solarium along the north side of the home -- a long row of wide \"krypton-filled\" windows -- helps provide natural light while creating what Mike Robinson called \"the heat engine of the house.\" As for the winter months, the Robinsons have two water tanks for the home's in-floor heating -- one that's warmed by propane and a secondary tank that uses solar-thermal tubes.\nWhile his new home is the culmination of a dream, it's also an expression of Mike Robinson's professional life. His company, Natural Power Products Inc., designs and installs \"alternative power generation' technologies such as wind turbines and photovoltaic arrays for homes and businesses. His home, then, is also a showcase for just what can be done with the available technologies. With the investments made, the Robinson family hopes their home will achieve a platinum certification in the exacting Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design system.\n\"We figured we were going to take it one step further,\" said Mike Robinson, who used to base his company in Kitchener. \"We're going the sustainable living way. It's a bigger scope.\"\nFrom eating locally grown foods to using expensive Forest Stewardship Council-certified lumber in the construction of their home, the Robinson family intends to do as much as they can to leave as little impact as possible. While the cost for one of the country's \"greenest\" homes was considerable -- the house itself cost about $500,000 while the property and renewable energy technologies added another $500,000 -- the Robinson family wants to inspire by example. Sure, most people can't afford to invest $1 million in green technologies but steps can still be taken for homes to be a little \"greener.\"\n\"It is something to achieve,\" Mike Robinson said.\nAnd despite the expense, there are some obvious advantages to their one-of-a-kind home: no electricity bills, no blackouts and the kind of durability normally associated with bomb shelters.\n\"There's nothing to replace here for hundreds of years,\" Mike Robinson said. \"I don't have to change the roof; I just have to mow it once in a while.\"", "label": "Yes"}

But they are not since Traxxas has put them down.\nWith one click on the top of the wheel, you can open the body and see the chassis.\nThe Middle and the Rear\nThe middle of the Traxxas Ford F150 TRX-4 comes with so many details like the windscreen wipers made of chrome, the black windows, as well as the side mirrors, the door handles as well as the top headlights.\nAlso, you can see the chrome line surrounding all around the car with some small stickers about the identity of the vehicle.\nThe rear of the Traxxas Ford F150 TRX-4 is stunning as well.\nYou can see those cool taillights in addition to the center plate with the FORD written on it. This plate is also surrounded by chrome.\nFinally, there is the chrome bumper just like the front one with a license plate in the middle.\nUnder the Body\nOnce you remove the body use the clipless system that allows you to remove the body with one click.\nUnder the body, you’ll find an internal cage, this cage can be used for extra protection as well as organizing the headlights and taillights wires in addition to the clipless function.\nTraxxas Ford F150 TRX-4 Dimensions\nAs you know, this RC car is a high-trail edition like the previous one, which means that it has big dimensions.\nLength: 22.30 inches (566mm)\nWidth: 10.60 inches (270mm)\nCenter Ground Clearance: 4 inches (99mm)\nWeight: 7.34lbs (3.33kg)\nHeight: 10.82 inches (275mm)\nWheelbase: 13.23 inches (336mm)\nTraxxas Ford F150 TRX-4 Colors\nThe Traxxas Ford F150 TRX-4 comes in two colors which are blue and brown.\nTraxxas Ford F150 TRX-4 Wheels and Tires\nThe Traxxas Ford F150 TRX-4 tires are some of the biggest in the Traxxas fleet! They are the Pre-mounted 2.2” Canyon Trail tires.\nThey have a high grip that helps you crawl anything you want! The wheels are also 2.2” slotted mag wheels.\nTraxxas Ford F150 TRX-4 Chassis\nThe chassis of this RC beast looks, in general, the same as the one on the Bronco and the TRX-4 RC crawlers in general.\nThe design of the chassis is amazing and shows you how careful the engineers were in building this masterpiece to give you maximum performance.\nYou have the motor in the front right after the tires, the receiver box, and the shift and steering servos on the sides in addition to the ESC.\nThen, you can see all the driveshafts starting from the motor to the rear wheels.\nIf you look from the bottom, you’ll see that the car is filled with so many axles which are important for off-roading and drive modes.\nThe frame is made of steel, it is extended to increase rigidity and stability, especially with the wide wheelbase.\nPlus, the Traxxas Ford F150 TRX-4 is higher than the 1979 Bronco, have you noticed yet?\nThe difference between the two RC cars is about over 1 inch. And this is because of the installed lift kit that makes your RC car higher.\nBut how did they do that? Well, it’s easy, they just added the extended GTS shocks by 110 mm to increase the ground clearance and be able to overcome high obstacles with no problems.\nThe wheels and tires have also contributed to this height by adding bigger tires than those with the 1979 Bronco.\nIn the end, the Traxxas Ford F150 TRX-4 chassis will amaze you with its engineering and creativity. The upgrades and new things that have been added are crazy enough to make fall in love with this RC beast without even trying it off-road!\nWhat about the performance?\nTraxxas Ford F150 TRX-4 Performance\nLet’s go try this beast! First of all, the Traxxas Ford F150 TRX-4 comes with a Powerful Titan® 21T reverse rotation, Trail-tuned XL-5 HV Waterproof Electronic Speed Control using 2/3s Lipo batteries.\nAdditionally, there is a two-speed transmission to select the drive modes like the low range and the high range.\nPlus, you can control always the differentials that have different modes you can see from the transmitter including the trail mode and the crawl mode special for off-roading.\nHere are all the parts that come with the Traxxas Ford F150 TRX-4:\nAll these electronics that make this RC car powerful are waterproof and can handle anything you put them through!\nPlus the high ground clearance thanks to the shocks and the tires, you can now climb anything you want! This will give you the ultimate RC car!\nYou can drive through snow, water, mud, rocks, and rain with no problems at all. This can be a great RC car for your kid, it will handle him so much better, and it will be safer than a monster truck that goes at high speed.\nBy mentioning the high speed, the maximum speed of the Traxxas Ford F150 TRX-4 doesn’t exceed 12 mph like any TRX-4 crawler. So, enjoy crawling in slow motion!\nTraxxas Ford F150 TRX-4 Transmitter and Receiver\nThese two are some of the most important parts you should have, otherwise just throw that car in the corner of the room/\nThe transmitter that comes with the Traxxas Ford F150 TRX-4 is the TQi™ 2.4GHz 4-channel transmitter.\nThis transmitter comes with all the features that Traxxas has concerning the RC crawlers like the drive modes as well as the low and high-range modes mentioned earlier.\nAlso, you can always enable the Traxxas Link that helps you read more info about your RC car on your phone including the speed and the temperature.\nBut this requires also the receiver which is the 5-channel micro receiver with a failsafe offered with this RC car. It does require also the Traxxas Link device that you can buy from Traxxas.\nTraxxas Ford F150 TRX-4 Upgrades\nYou may say that this is a new RC car, so new aftermarket updates aren’t available yet.\nBut, the bright side is that this RC car has so many parts of the previous TRX-4 except for some parts like the extended shocks.\nOther than that, you can upgrade almost everything you want.\nIf you’re a beginner, one of the best upgrades you can do are the light kit which is available on the website of Traxxas.\nGreat Features of the Traxxas Ford F150 TRX-4\nIn this off-roading RC car, there are so many details and features that you may not know and care about, but have a big impact on the performance!\nSuperior 45° steering angle: This is a cool feature that makes the steering angle bigger for better control.\nCrawl Mode and Trail Mode: These two are available only on the off-roading RC car and crawlers, you can enable them and enjoy them!\nLong 336 mm wheelbase for improved stability: The wheelbase of the Traxxas Ford F150 TRX-4 is longer than the previous TRX-4 versions.\nTraxxas Ford F150 TRX-4 Price\nFor the price, it seems like Traxxa is still keeping the same pace, we can’t say that this RC crawler is cheap, but it has the same price as the previous TRX-4 generations.\nThe price is high, however, I don’t think you’ll regret this ever, the look and the performance are stunning!\nCheck the price by clicking the button below:\nSo, Should You Buy It?\nThe answer is clear, YES! you should! This is so far the best TRX-4 RC car you can buy with new technology and smart engineering techniques.\nI’m afraid you’ll regret not buying this beast, especially since its price is the same as the price of the previous TRX-4 RC cars and not more!\nSo, just go ahead and buy it!\nWhat do you think? Will you buy it? Is the price convenient? Let me know your opinions in the comments below!", "label": "Yes"}
{"text": "Mr. Ernestos Bratis, Art Director & Co-Owner of Bratti Company, answers 3 important questions about the bratti signage design process.\n1. What is the greatest satisfaction for you when designing signs?\nBut of course to satisfy our customers. The method we follow in the signs' design starts with a brainstorming of Creative Department, always keeping in mind to create and produce the best result in every project we undertake. For all of us at bratti, the value is the result of a project that was properly studied, produced with the appropriate quality materials and perfectly suited to the aesthetics of the space for which it was designed.\n2. What specialties does the Creative Department of your company consist of?\nOur specialized team consists of architects, interior designers, industrial designers and graphic designers. Therefore, we have the know-how and the required experience to develop a professional signage result. We design signsages for each of our clients, according to the needs of the building in order the signs to perfectly match its architecture and add value to it.\n3. What are the stages of a comprehensive Marking Study?\nA comprehensive Study of Signage is carried out in three stages. First is Creative Study stage, where we study and decide on the construction materials, the type of font, the style of the pictograms and other symbols, the shape and design of the signs. Also, the color of the signs and the presence or absence of lighting are chosen, so that they match and enhance the architecture of the building. Then we procced to Wayfinding Strategy stage, where we define all the signage points in order to provide easy and immediate information and also guidance to the visitor. Moreover, the flow of traffic is determined based on specific destinations, such as rooms, reception, elevators, evacuation plan, restaurants, spa etc., as well as the direction to other buildings of the hotel and its exterior places. Finally, there is the Construction stage, where we precisely determine the size and construction specifications of each sign, which concern its design, the selected materials and its placement point, taking into account the weather conditions. Also, at this stage, the lighting study of the signage is completed, as well as a study of the support of the signs.\nFor more information on how you can upgrade the signage at your property, contact Bratti Hotel Signage company on +30 210 9656500 or email firstname.lastname@example.org.", "label": "Yes"}

{"text": "In 1932, Gaston L. Vuitton, the third-generation descendant of Louis Vuitton, designed a sturdy, durable, and elegant bag to meet the needs of a champagne and wine merchant. This design eventually evolved into what we now know as the bucket bag, specifically the Noe handbag and Lockme Bucket handbag. Although the bucket bag appears small, its original size was capable of carrying a total of 5 bottles of champagne, with 4 bottles placed upright and 1 bottle inverted in the center. The drawstring closure ensured the bottles were securely held in place, preventing any potential impact that could lead to breakage.\nThe SAC NOE GM LOUIS VUITTON VINTAGE is a timeless bag that showcases elegance and vintage charm. This iconic piece from Louis Vuitton offers a spacious interior and unique design. Understanding the appropriate shoulder fit and considering one’s height are essential aspects when choosing and wearing this bag. Let’s explore its internal and external structure while addressing these factors.\nThe SAC NOE GM is designed for comfortable shoulder wear, thanks to its adjustable strap that accommodates various body shapes and sizes. It’s important to find the right strap length to ensure a secure fit without discomfort. Additionally, consider your height when choosing the bag size. Taller individuals may prefer the larger GM version for a balanced look, while those with a petite frame may find the smaller NOE sizes more proportionate and flattering. By considering these factors, you can achieve a confident and stylish carrying experience.\nInternal Structure: The SAC NOE GM features a spacious interior that can accommodate a variety of belongings. The bag’s main compartment is roomy and can hold everyday essentials, making it a practical choice for daily use or travel. Additionally, it includes a drawstring closure that provides both security and convenience.\nExternal Structure: Externally, the SAC NOE GM showcases Louis Vuitton’s signature monogram canvas, reflecting the brand’s rich heritage. The bag features a sturdy base and reinforced corners, ensuring durability and longevity. Its iconic bucket shape adds a touch of vintage sophistication to any outfit.\nWhen considering the SAC NOE GM LOUIS VUITTON VINTAGE, finding the right shoulder fit and considering your height are important factors to ensure a comfortable and stylish experience. With its spacious interior, adjustable strap, and timeless design, this bag combines functionality with vintage charm, making it a beloved choice for fashion enthusiasts.", "label": "Yes"}

Colours. Make sure you keep hopping all the way around!\nEvery second and fourth Wednesday of the month at 7 pm (AEDT), a new colour swatch will be uploaded to the Facebook Colour INKspiration Group and the Colour INKspiration Crew will get the ball rolling by providing inspiration for each challenge with a blog hop.\nAll entries will be via this Facebook group so make sure you add your creation there.\nIt's been a very long time since I sat & stamped. Everytime I tried, things just got busy & I gave up. Today I thought I would join the the Colour INKspiration blog hop & literally made myself sit down & stamp. I started with a card sketch & worked on 2 cards to add to this weeks hop. When it's been a while I find it easier to create from a sketch or CASE the catalogue. Today it was just SO hard to even get started!\nHere is the gorgeous colour swatch we are working with this time around.\nThis photo conjures up vingtage lace & pretty flowers for me, however I just didnt have the mojo to actually create those things! I have to admit, my cards are quite simple today but I am proud I actually made something. Here are my two cards similar in design yet different in essence.\nFor my first card I have clear embossed the cake from Cake Soiree in Chocolate Chip. I used the Garden Green & Blushing Bride markers to colour the flowers & embossed the back ground using the Sequins embossing folder. I also sprinked some wink of stella over the sequins & flowers for extra shine, but it's not easy to see here.\nMy second card uses the lovely new Springtime Foils DSP from the new Sale-A-Bration offerings. It is such a lovely DSP & colours well. I used the markers once again on this flower & cut it out. The background is embossed using the Petal Pair embossing folder. I've added some Garden Green ribbon & the sentiment is from A Good Day stamp set from the Occasions Catalogue.\nI really wasnt that happy with these cards, they were just not what I had pictured making, so I made another one. This one was more what I had in my head. I wanted a chocoltate cake as soon as I used the Chocolate Chip ink so I knew I had to have one more try.\nThanks for visitng today.

{"text": "The term “tiny home” emerged as a buzzword a couple of years ago, on the heels of the McMansion era, as a few well-to-do people began downsizing to minimal quarters. Tiny homes are now a burgeoning movement here in Denver, where the larger architecture community is aware of it — but perhaps with different motives than those that popularized the movement nationwide. Homelessness (and the increasing Denver homeless population), the criminalization of poverty, and a lack of affordable housing are a few of the primary political and social issues that have galvanized volunteers into tiny-home-construction-action. Based on the premise that providing someone with a small home is more affordable than the less-desirable options of either a) putting them in jail, or b) providing services to them while they are living on the streets, organizations like Denver Homeless Out Loud and Architecture for Humanity have begun building and planning out the first tiny home community in Denver. Little Denver is tentatively located at the junction of Court Pl and Washington St in the Five Points neighborhood.\nThe tiny homes are based on designs by Backyard Bungalows, who worked with the Oregon Building Department to create 27 tiny code-compliant homes for Opportunity Village in Eugene, OR. With volunteer labor, the homes cost $2,500 to build:\nTiny homes finished and/or under construction in Denver, CO:\nThis year, DHOL also participated in the Biennial of the Americas with an interactive exhibit entitled “The Struggle for Space: Homelessness and the Politics of Dys-Appearance in American Cities.” Volunteers built a Conestoga Hut — a simple micro-housing unit designed by Community Supported Shelters in Eugene, OR — within the span of 2 hours, using inexpensive materials:\nFor further information or to get involved with building tiny homes in Denver, e-mail firstname.lastname@example.org (DHOL) or email@example.com.", "label": "Yes"}

Choose \"US Paper\" size from the default options. It's a good starting point for creating your gold medal. Also choose \"RGB\" colour mode and 300 pixels-per-inch as the resolution. This way, you can use the gold medal for printing, or reduce its file size to use it on the Web.\nGo to the Toolbar (on the left side by default) and activate the \"Custom Shape\" tool. It is bundled together with the Rectangle, Line and other shape-drawing tools. Type the \"U\" key and it will activate that set of tools.

It's the first of three such options in a row on the left.\nLocate the option for \"Shape\" followed by a small thumbnail preview. Click the small, downward pointing arrow next to the thumbnail, and options for different custom shapes will open. Near the top is a shape called \"Seal,\" which nicely resembles a gold medal.

With the Custom Shape tool still active, go to the box marked \"Color\" on the right of the tool options bar at top. Click on it and choose \"black.\"\nClick and drag across your document to draw the seal. Try and fill the document. Hold the \"Shift\" key down while you are drawing the seal.

{"text": "The 2021 Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance played host to a special class of Porsche 917 race cars. That this gathering — 50 years after the 917’s overall win at Le Mans in 1971 — would occur there, rather than in the paddock of some storied racing circuit, is significant. We spoke with Revs Institute founder Miles Collier, whose own 1967 917K was among those gathered, about what it meant to see 13 of these iconic cars on the show field at such a prestigious event.\nWhat was learned from seeing so many iconic Porsche 917s grouped side-by-side at Pebble Beach?\nI think many spectators and exhibitors at Pebble Beach became exposed to the notion that vintage race cars are important and beautiful purpose-built artifacts of history. These cars are increasingly popular among young people, and collector interest is growing. The fact that these 917s were on the field at the most significant concours in the world tells us winds may be shifting.\nThe 917s and the Can-Am variants displayed at Pebble Beach represented the most important examples of these storied Porsche race cars, including the famously recognizable Gulf cars, Dr. Fred Simeone’s “Hippie Car” and Chris McAllister’s 917 016, the winningest 917 of all time. The 1971 longtail “Langheck” was the best aerodynamic iteration of the 917 — it was super fast on the straights and handled magnificently. This tail inspired the design that turned out to be used later on the 936, 956 and the 962.\nTell us about the whimsical (if not radical) paintwork on some of these 917s.\nThe livery schemes of 917s from this era each have their own story. The late 1960s was a time when design as a whole was radical and brave — if not lurid. During this era, the colors of psychedelic graphic designer Peter Max impacted Porsche road cars. It was not unusual back then to see a road-going 911 painted in Lilac or Lime. Often, these colors were considered a safety aid because they were so visible.\nTony Lapine, head of Porsche design, was influential in the livery of many of the vintage 917s displayed at Pebble this year. Perhaps the most infamous and notorious example of Lapine’s work is the “Pink Pig,” aka “Big Bertha” or “Truffle Jäger.” The next most well-known 917 is Dr. Fred Simeone’s “Hippie Car” that was displayed at Pebble. Lapine’s colorful designs also heavily influenced the Gulf team and Porsche Salzburg, which turned into the famed Martini team for 1971.\nWhy is the 917 so legendary? What is the backstory of these iconic race cars?\nWhen the 917 came to the market in 1969, they were diabolical and dangerous. Porsche offered two versions of the car, both with a removable tail. Word spread quickly about the new 917. Renowned Porsche race driver Brian Redman received calls from the Porsche factory inviting him to drive the new 917. In a risky act of defiance to Porsche brass, he politely declined the offer. He later said the 917 was “incredibly dangerous, using all the road at high speed.”\nOther notable drivers of the era echoed Redman’s concerns. Vic Elford described the car as “pretty unstable and really not very nice.” Jo Siffert was a little more direct in his description: “Unstable and bloody dangerous.” Hans Hermann commented after the test day at LeMans in 1969 that “the cars are a catastrophe.”\nBecause of the flawed aerodynamic design from the factory, team owners and Porsche itself quickly subjected the Porsche 917 to trial-and-error tail redesigns. As a result, the 917 swiftly evolved from diabolical to magnificent.\nThe 917’s flaws initially became apparent during the Championship of Makes race in Austria in 1969. Along with the 917K, Porsche was also getting its feet wet with its Can-Am PA car. After that fateful race, a 917 testing session was conducted at the same track. It turned out that the Porsche Can-Am PA cars were actually materially faster than the 917K.\nJohn Wyer’s team and various Porsche Works mechanics made aerodynamic improvements to the 917 on the fly. Together they pounded out new aluminum sheets and used pop rivets, tape and clay to create what became the successful K tail that we know today. The design configuration of the Can-Am PA car inspired the design of the K tail. In short order, Wyer succeeded in sorting the whole mess out.\nThe original design of the 917 was predicated on Ferdinand Piëch’s dogmatic view that all Le Mans cars should have very low drag coefficients. His concept was they could whistle down the Mulsanne Straight and go slower in the turns. This approach would maintain higher average lap speeds than the competition, with lower risk of accidents in the turns. This strategy would also burn less fuel and require fewer pit stops. The 917 certainly had a low Cd, but it did not handle well and was undriveable. In the final analysis, Piëch’s theory was great, but the problem was the 917 didn’t work.\nIn the late 1960s, the knowledge and understanding of automotive aerodynamics were in their infancy. Aviation aerodynamics were sophisticated, but these wind-tunnel findings did not directly convert to the automotive world. In aerospace, you don’t get complicating factors from the interactions between the ground plane and the boundary layer — this automotive dynamic makes aero optimization way more complicated. The ongoing development of the 917 by teams, drivers and the manufacturer coincided with the “a-ha” moment of aerodynamics’ crucial role for racing cars performing at well over 200 mph.\nThe collective subsequent adjustments to the 917 tail ultimately made the drag coefficient higher, but it didn’t matter because the outcome was so positive. In 1971, Porsche came up with another slightly different tail design for the Martini team, which proved to be an even more sophisticated aerodynamic solution. This evolution of the 917 tail had low drag and maintained the same downforce as the “high tail” that Wyer had previously improved. My 917K Martini car has this 1971 flat tail with vertical rudders. This tail adjustment was so good that even Wyer adopted the Martini tail for the Gulf cars during the 1971 season.\nIn a concours environment, graced by the likes of Hispano-Suizas and Bugattis, what role do race cars play?\nA concours d’elegance is about elegance. Vehicles like a Duesenberg, Bugatti or a coachbuilt Packard are indisputably — even quintessentially — elegant. In contrast, race cars are raw and minimalized for functionality and are generally anything but elegant.\nOn the other hand, what is more elegant than the law of nature? Race cars derive their aesthetics in a different way from road cars. Race cars solve for the very limits that nature permits, given constraints. Road cars are more analogous to sculpture, where line, form, curve and relationships determine the ultimate effect. Race cars pit the laws of nature against the various restrictions imposed by rule makers.\nIn the late 1960s, the rules did not keep up with the emerging engineering capability, and as a result, the cars were effectively unrestrained. In contrast, today we have strict design and comprehensive safety standards. Because modern rules significantly impact design, we will likely never again see the beauty of racing cars like the 917.\nThe race cars from this less-regulated era represent great things in the human mind and spirit. Each car is stunningly beautiful in its own way and, as such, these rare hand-built artifacts deserve their place on the lawn at Pebble Beach.\nWhat does the future of collectible race cars hold?\nIn the future, historically significant race cars should continue to gain collectors’ respect, and they might someday be considered more exciting and compelling than road cars. Production road cars are fully industrialized and mostly mass-produced. In contrast, competition cars tend to have a huge amount of hand labor in them — they are truly hand–built automobiles. You can see this seductive hand-made quality in many of these absolutely gorgeous artifacts, including the Ferrari P3 or P4, which are stunning examples of this dynamic.\nWhen forward-thinking collectors like Peter Sachs were buying used Ferrari race cars decades ago, nobody cared. They were cast off and outdated and had no financial value because there was nothing you could do with them. There was no place to run them. Yet they were — and remain — staggeringly beautiful cars. Today some of them are priceless legacy artifacts. As the years roll on, race cars like the 917 will only become more attractive to all stakeholders in the collector-car universe. ♦.", "label": "Yes"}

{"text": "as promising as on earth, but cooling is also required\nTwo years before Sharp, in 2011, the American company Solar Junction has already released similar batteries, but with an efficiency of 43.5%, the elements of which had a size of 5 by 5 mm, and focusing was also performed with lenses, concentrating the light of the sun 400 times. The photocells were germanium-based triple junction cells, and the group even planned to create five and six junction photocells to better capture the spectrum. Research is carried out by the company to this day.\nWhat's the point?

[This can be difficult to understand at first: only a door assembly – a door panel and a frame – can have a fire-rating. The intent of the code is to require a door panel that would pass a 20 minute fire-rated assembly test IF it had been installed in a fire-rated frame and installed in a fire-rated wall, neither of which is required by the code.

I was a bit apprehensive ordering these for delivery through a shipping company but they arrived in good order and without a scratch on the boxes. The Gladiator system will hold large items and a LOT of weight, but I did learn that my trusty peg board is better for numerous small items since you can pack the smaller items more densely on the light peg board hooks. The Gladiator system works great but its tailored for larger/heavier items that are packed less densely on the wall. I placed a strip of this gear wall under some Gladiator wall cabinets and above some floor cabinets. Due to the storage density noted above I have very little hanging on this system in this location, but the sections hanging on an open wall are well used for hanging hedge trimmers, blowers, saw horses, etc. My solution was to use a peg board on one wall section and gear track in other areas in order to maximize my storage options. I would definitely buy again, but I would pay careful consideration to exactly where you will put these sections because they are costly and are not a perfect one-size-fits-all wall storage solution.\nDid you scroll all this way to get facts about whisk broom?

{"text": "The New York Times has dropped new renderings of the Rogers Stirk Harbour + Partners-designed One Beekman, Richard Rogers’ first residential building in the U.S. Although the 25-story mixed-use tower began rising in Tribeca in 2017, this is the first time that polished renderings have been released–including a glimpse at the spacious interiors.\nOne Beekman is rising at the intersection of Park Row and Beekman Street diagonally across from City Hall Park. The entire building has been oriented for this view, with the circulation core shifted south, allowing each living room in the 31 condo units to look out on the park through oversized windows. This was also borne out of necessity; COOKFOX’s 54-story Park Row will be rising directly behind One Beekman.\n“We pulled the core right to the back, where there isn’t any view, and made the building very solid there,” Graham Stirk, the partner leading the project, the Times.\nThe newly revealed aluminum facade extrudes from the tower’s bulk and divides to frame individual windows, aping SoHo’s cast-iron buildings and giving residents access to their own park-facing loggias. Perforated copper screens will infill the spaces between the building’s framing and the facade, the warm color of the metal referencing the brick and terracotta of the Beekman Hotel across the street.\nRetail space will go up on the first two floors, with office spaces on the third and fourth, amenities for condo owners on the fifth, and residential units proper starting on the sixth floor. Moving the residential section upwards has the beneficial side effect of preserving views of the park for the tower’s residents.\nInside, Rogers has used a clean and light material palette for the residential areas. White oak flooring, “Tundra Grey” marble, and white-grey concrete lends the whole space an airy feel, and condo owners can expect a gym, yoga studio, common outdoor terrace, and an entertainment space on the fifth floor.\nDeveloper Urban Muse and real estate firm Compass are launching sales later this month, with prices ranging from $2 million all the way up to $14 million. Construction is moving swiftly, with One Beekman expected to top out this month and wrap construction in the middle of 2019.

{"text": "Needlepoint pillows can instantly change the way your room looks like. If you want a quick room makeover that wont cost you much then consider adding these decorative pillows in your room. If you have seats in your bedroom then you can use these modern pillows in much the same way you use couch pillows on your sofa.\nWhen choosing embroidered pillows for your room your main consideration should be color. Feel free to use bold colors. Youre not going against decorating guidelines as long as you use colors that have a similar shade in your room or even in the adjacent room. Keep in mind that interior design guidelines have very few restrictions since the most important consideration is your personal preference. So even if the furniture in your room has bold geometric designs, you can still use accent pillows with small needlepoint prints as long as the accent has a color in a similar shade with anything in the room.\nHowever, if clashing needlepoint patterns arent your thing then you can create a subtler effect by using needlepoint decorative pillows with self embroidery. These are usually embossed with needlepoint designs in the same color and maybe even using the same thread or needlepoint finishing.\nThese home decor pillows also come in various needlepoint designs. One of the most popular themes is the animal theme. A lot of people really go for needlepoint dog pillows, needlepoint cat pillows, needlepoint bird pillows, and needlepoint rooster pillows. Needlepoint floral pillows are also popular.\nAside from the needlepoint patterns and needlepoint designs, the size and shape of the needlepoint cushion are also some of your considerations. For example, a standard needlepoint cushion, with a size of 18×18 will give a different effect from a small rectangular needlepoint cushion that measures 11×15.\nOne way to improve the effect of these throw pillows is through a method called piggyback. This involves two identical decor pillows, of which one is of a bigger size. Use them as a set or group. Position them in a way that one is almost on top of the other. Another design idea is to group several needlepoint pillows of the same theme but that are not identical. For example, you can group toss pillows of different nature designs to come up with a nature theme.\nProduct Reviews for Needlepoint Throw Pillows\nOf course, if youre the creative type and have the skills for it then you may want to make your own needlepoint decorative pillows. You can make them in any design you want, and you can even personalize them. However, if youd rather have it easy and just purchase some, you may want to check out the following brands:123 Creations C728E.1818 inch Zebra in Brown Needlepoint Pillow 100 Percent Wool. Priced in medium range, this needlepoint toss pillow can make a great gift for your friends and family. It is durable as it is made of 100% wool needlepoint on the front and of cotton velveteen at the back, with a filling of polyester insert. It comes in the standard size. The needlepoint finishing is brown and white, but you can easily replace the cover as the cover comes with a zipper.\nBull Frog Needlepoint Throw Pillow. A Michealian Home product, this needlepoint throw pillow costs a lot. This dcor pillow would make a great addition to your nature-themed needlepoint toss pillows. You can count on it to beautify your room for a long time, as its face is made of 100% wool and its back of cotton velvet. It also has a zipper in the back and comes with a removable polyfill stuffer.\nYou may also want to look into home decor pillows from Bolster Pillows, but if youd rather make your own then you might find the Bucilla Needlepoint Kit handy.\nSpruce up your room with needlepoint accent pillows.

{"text": "It's the trend that first appeared on the New York catwalk, and is now taking over London Fashion Week for autumn/winter 2003.\nLast night, after three years in Paris, the design couple Clements Ribeiro brought the style to the London catwalk.\nHusband and wife Inacio Ribeiro and Suzanne Clements moved their own label show to the French capital following their appointment as designers at Cacharel. While their work at Cacharel makes sense in Paris, their own label never fitted in. Moving back to London will ensure their reputation is restored.\nTheir look for autumn/winter is the playful one of a short length that proved to be not that revealing because of some key details. Mini dresses, either tunic shape in coloured panels, or printed with off-kilter designs, were worn with tights and polo-neck combination.\nThe prints often looked like an abstraction from the image of an artist's palette, something that was shown last season at Gibo by Julie Verhoeven. They also showed good Marc Jacobs-like coats, complete with big buttons, but best of all was the knitwear. Clements Ribeiro became a cult label because of its cashmere. This season the graphic designs high lighted the retro-futuristic feel of the collection.\nEarlier, Roland Mouret presented some excellent coats and introduced a very commercial range of denim. But with its space-age mini dresses, again worn with tights, the show missed out on the draping skills that made his name. Hence, it was also missing some of his much admired signature that has made him one of London's most promising designers.\nAlso strong were the cut of his jeans and Prince of Wales check trousers, which were fitted without ever being restrictive.\nBut Mouret needs to retain conviction in his particular skills and not follow trends if he wants to step up to the next level.", "label": "Yes"}
{"text": "Interactive floor plan: Fabrica exhibition at Villa Necchi, Milan\nIn 1932 Milan’s social scene was abuzz with glamour and decadence when socialite sisters Gigina and Nedda Necchi enlisted local architect Piero Portaluppi - the man behind much of the Milanese cityscape - to build a grand villa in the centre of the city. Located amid lush gardens, the ensuing building was completed at the height of the Italian Rationalist movement and is one of the finest twentieth century villas in the city.\nThe audacious three-storey home combines austere, neo-classical details with rich materials. The Necchi sisters, and Gigina’s husband, Angelo Campiglio, were avid collectors, and filled its interior with an impressive collection of art and design, both antique and modern (Italy was just becoming known for its design prowess at the time). When the last Necchi sister died, the villa was donated to Italy’s non-profit artistic and natural heritage organisation, Fondo Ambiente Italiano (FAI), who restored and re-opened it for public enjoyment, and the building regularly plays host to Salone del Mobile and fashion week events.\nNow, in homage to the character and lifestyle of the Necchi-Campiglio family, the Benetton Group’s communication centre Fabrica have created an object for each room, inspired by the existing architecture, evocative of the sister’s lifestyle, sponsored by brands from Alessi to Nodus. The project, which kicked off during last week’s Salone (and was one of the major highlights of the week), explores ‘the relationship between past, present and future, between architecture and design, between the hosts and guests of yesterday and those of today,’ explains Fabrica.\nCommitted to capturing the soul of the home, the young designers frequently visited the villa, attentively researching the history. The result is a beautifully considered collection of 25 eclectic objects that insightfully capture the sentiment of the house, while having a good dose of humour.\nFrom specially designed perfumes, reflecting the characters of the family, to tableware the echoes the pattern of the ceiling in the dining room, Fabrica have conceived a fascinating collection of pieces that shed new light on this impressive building.

{"text": "Solar Refrigeration Using Peltier Effect\nPublished on Aug 21, 2023\nIn the recent years, we have many problem such as energy crises and environment degradation due to the increasing CO2 emission and ozone layer depletion has become the primarily concern to both developed and developing countries. Our project utilizes the solar energy for its operation. Solar refrigeration using thermoelectric module is going to be one of the most cost effective, clean and environment friendly system. This project does not need any kind of refrigerant and mechanical device like compressor, prime mover, etc for its operation. The main purpose of this project is to provide refrigeration to the remote areas where power supply is not possible.\nFrom last century till now refrigeration has been one of the most important factors of our daily life. The current tendency of the world is to look at renewable energy resources as a source of energy. This is done for the following two reasons; firstly, the lower quality of life due to air pollution; and, secondly, due to the pressure of the ever increasing world population puts on our natural energy resources.\nFrom these two facts comes the realization that the natural energy resources available will not last indefinitely. The basic idea is implementation of photovoltaic driven refrigerating system powered from direct current source or solar panel (when needed) with a battery bank. In 1821, the first important discovery relating to thermoelectricity occurred by German scientist Thomas Seebeck who found that an electric current would flow continuously in a closed circuit made up of two dissimilar metals, provided that the junctions of the metals were maintained at two different temperatures.\nWithout actually comprehending the scientific basis for the discovery, Seebeck, falsely assumed that flowing heat produced the same effect as flowing electric current. Later, in 1834, while investigating the Seebeck Effect, a French watchmaker and part-time physicist, Jean Peltier found that there was an opposite phenomenon where by thermal energy could be absorbed at one dissimilar metal junction and discharged at the other junction when an electric current flows within the closed circuit. Afterwards, William Thomson described a relationship between Seebeck and Peltier Effect without any practical application.\nAfter studying some of the earlier thermoelectric work, Russian scientists in 1930s, inspired the development of practical thermoelectric modules based on modern semiconductor technology by replacing dissimilar metals with doped semiconductor material used in early experiments. The Seebeck, Peltier and Thomson effects, together with several other phenomena, form the basis of functional thermoelectric modules. Thermoelectric Refrigeration aims at providing cooling effect by using thermoelectric effects rather than the more prevalent conventional methods like those using the ‘vapour compression cycle’ or the ‘gas compression cycle’.\nThe Seebeck coefficient is the ratio between the elecric field and the temperature gradient. The Seebeck coefficient can be thought of as a measure of the coupling between the thermal and elecrical currents in a material. The Peltier coefficient of the junction is a property depending on both materials and is the ratio of the power evolved at the junction to the current flowing through it. The Thomson coefficient is the ratio of the Power evolved per unit volume in the sample to the applied current and temperature gradient.\nThe construction setup of the refrigerator is as follows,\n1. Thermo-electric module\n2. Refrigeration chamber\n4. Solar cell\n3.1 Thermo-electric module\nA thermo-electric module (TEM) is a solid state current device, which, if power is applied, move heat from the cold side to the hot side, acting as a heat exchanger. This direction of heat travel will be reversed if the current is reversed. It is a phenomenon that is opposite to the Seebeck effect. Combination of many pairs of p- and n-semiconductors allows creating cooling units - Peltier modules of relatively high power. A Peltier module consists of semiconductors mounted successively, which form p-n- and n-p-junctions. Each junction has a thermal contact with radiators.\nWhen switching on the current of the definite polarity, there forms a temperature difference between the radiators one of them warms up and works as a heatsink, and the other work as a refrigerator. A TE module is composed of two ceramic substrates that give foundation and also electrical insulation to p-type and n-type semiconductors. The TE module is composed of silicon bismuth semiconductor cause this pair gives the highest COP. Specification,\n1. Material used- Silicon - Bismuth\n2. A = 0.04 x 0.04 = 0.0016 m2\n3. Q max =33.3 watt\n4. V max = 14.8 v dc\n5. I max =6 amp\n3.2 Refrigeration chamber\nThe chamber used is same as that of the chambers used in conventional refrigeration. The chamber can be of any volume, shape and size. For experimentation purposes the volume of the chambers is kept low. Insulation provided to the chamber is done by polystyrene. And aluminium casing is done in the inner side of insulation to provide better cooling. We have used specific chamber and is as follows,\n1. The size of the box is,\nWidth - 28.7 cm,\nLength - 31.8 cm,\nHeight - 33.7 cm.\n2. The power capacity is 60 W\n3. The capacity of cooling chamber is 7.8 L.\n4. The voltage is 240 V to 220 V AC and 12 V DC.\nThe battery is an electrochemical converting chemical energy into electrical energy. The main purpose of the battery is to provide a supply of current for operating the cranking motor and other electrical units. Specification,\n1. Voltage 12v\n2. Current 7.2Ah\n3.4 Solar cell\nThe direct conversion of solar energy is carried out into electrical energy by conversion of light or other electromagnetic radiation into electricity.\n1. The dimensions of the panel are-\nLength – 48.5 cm,\nWidth – 35 cm.\n2. Number of sub-cells used is 72\n3. Dimension of the sub-cells is,\nLength – 4.8 cm\nWidth – 4 cm.\n4. Maximum power is 20 W\n5. Voltage is 17 V\n6. Current is 1.16 A\nWorking of Thermo-electric module\nIt is an equipment, which work on principle of conversion of solar energy into electrical energy. A solar cell is used to develop 17 V & 1.16 amps current DC supply and 20W. This electrical energy is stored in a battery which is of 12volts DC supply which then supplies the power to transformers.The transformer control three fan out of which two-fan work as exhaust fan & remove heat from heat sink plate.\nThe third in side fan work as heat extractor, this fan remove heat from system and add to heat sink.During operation, DC current flows through the TEM causing heat to be transferred from one side of the TEC to the other, creating a cold and hot side.The p-type semiconductor is doped with certain atoms that have lesser electron than necessary to complete the atomic bonds within the crystal lattice.\nWhen electrons do this, they “holes” which essentially are atoms within the crystal lattice that now have local positive charges. Electrons are then continually dropping in and being bumped out of the holes and moving on the next available hole. In effect, it is the hole that are acting as the electrical carrier now electron move much more easily proper conductor but not so easily in semiconductor. When electron leave the ptype and enter into the copper on the cold side, hole are created in the p-type as the electron jump out to the higher energy level to match the energy level of the electron already moving in the copper. The extra energy to create this hole comes by absorbing heat. Meanwhile, the newly created hole travels downwards to the copper on the hot side.\nElectrons from the hot side copper move into the p-type and drop into the hole, releasing the excess energy in the form of heat the n-type semiconductor is doped with atoms that provide more electrons than necessary to complete. The atomic bonds within the crystal lattice. When a voltage is applied, this extra electrons are easily moved into the conduction band. However additional energy is required to get the n-type electrons to match the energy level of the incoming electrons from the cold side copper.\nThe extra energy comes by absorbing heat. Finally, when the electrons leave the hot side of the n-type, they once again can move freely in the copper. They drop down to a lower energylevel, and release heat in the process.The COP for heating and cooling are thus different, because the heat reservoir of interest isdifferent. When one is interested in how well a machine cools, the COP is the ratio of the heat removed from the cold reservoir to input work. However, for heating, the COP is the ratio of the heat removed from the cold reservoir plus the input work to the input work:\nThis project’s aim is to investigate the feasibility and produce prototype of a rapid-cooling device using Peltier technology. As project is based on peltier effect our first main step is selection of right peltier module. For selection of module following factors should be consider,\n1. Its operating temperature must be within required limits.\n2. Heat rejected by hot side of module should be less than its total power capacity.\n3. For desired cooling proper heat sink should be provided on hotter side.\n4. Peltier module should be selected according to the volume which has to be cooled.\nThe overall short term aim was to develop a small, inexpensive and compact coolerbox using a TEC heat exchanger. As has already been explained in section above an important design parameter should be the ability to function under variable input power conditions. By using a coolerbox, all the power provided by the PV system could be utilized during the day, achieving very high overall efficiency for the PV system.\n1. To make use of environmentally friendly refrigeration system.\n2. To investigate the cost and effectiveness of the design or TE module.\n3. To identify the improvements on the experiment.\n4. To study the results coming out from this project.\n5. To compare results with theoretical result.\n6. To look at commercially available 12VDC coolerboxes.\n7. To construct a test on the behavior and specifications of a TEC heatexchanger operating in a cooler box environment.\nAdvantages of the machine\n1. Light weight and compact for very small heat loads.\n2. No moving parts, eliminating vibration, noise, and problems of wear.\n3. Reversing the direction of current transforms the cooling unit into a heater.\n4. Operates in any orientation. Not affected by gravity or vibration\n5. Very low cost device for cooling in small appliances.\n6. Precision temperature control capability\nDisadvantages of the machine\n1. Limited to very small refrigeration volume.\n2. Compared to conventional refrigerators cooling achieved is less.\n3. Heat sinks required to conduct heat to and from the thermoelectric modules become very heavy and bulky as the refrigeration capacity increases.\nApplications of the machine\n1. Medical field- Pharmaceutical industry, medicine and medical equipment storage, etc.\n2. Military- storing of consumable goods in war affected zones, rural area, etc.\n3. Dairy (milk) industry.\n4. Mechanical industry.\n5. Scientific and Laboratory Equipment— cooling chambers; freezers; cooling incubators; temperature stabilized chambers; cold laboratory plates and tables; thermo-calibrators; stage coolers; thermostats; coolers and temperature stabilisers for multipurpose sensors\n6. Restaurant and hotel.\n7. Vegetable, fish, fruit, beverage, etc. storage.\n8. Electronic— miniature cooling units for incoming stages of highly sensitive receivers and amplifiers; coolers for high power generators, laser emitters and systems, CCD cameras, parametic-amplfiers, vacuum and solid-state photo detectors and CPU coolers.\nThe TE devices can act as coolers, heat pumps, power generators, or thermal energy sensors and are used in almost all the fields such as military, aerospace, instrument, biology, medicine, industrial or commercial products. The major challenge faced in TE cooling is lower COP especially in large capacity systems. However, as the energy costs are elevating and environmental regulations regarding the manufacture and release of CFCs have become more firm with time, the scope of TE effect has revived, especially in the developing countries or the third world where the energy is not surplus.\nTE chilling of beverage can be done at the farm level to inhibit any enzymatic or microbial change in quality of the beverage. Research in `the field of thermoelectricity and experimentation with different materials is required to improve the COP of the TE cooler. In the coming years thermoelectricity has a lot of potential to create energy saving and effective solutions for the industry and commercially as well.The minimum temperature achieved was found to be 15◦c for cooling and the maximum temperature was 65◦c for heating in this experiment.\nProject Done by Prof. Pushkarny B.H., Divyesh Patel, Akshay Parulkar, Hitesh Rai, Nadeem Khan\n International Journal of Engineering (IJE), Volume (5): Issue (1): 2011, Riffat SB.

The remodeling of the existing building includes expanding the multipurpose room to seat more people, new porcelain tile, revamped restrooms and kitchen and a new art room.\n“Basically for us what the expansion will do will make a bigger center for cultural and art events,” said Donna Gray Banks, the city’s community resources coordinator, whose office is in the “Babe” James Center, said Friday. “It will fit approximately 250 people comfortably for weddings and pastoral events and community events.”\nIn addition to an after-school program, the center is home to classes such as Tech Bridge, where people ages 16-21 learn how to make resumes, perform mock job interviews and prepare to take the General Educational Development test. Daytona State College also holds a GED class at the center, Gray Banks said. The New Smyrna Beach Police Athletic League also provides a number of programs for children there.\n“The new building also has a much larger entrance where people can wait and pick up their kids,” Pendergast told commissioners.\nCity commissioners last year reallocated $450,000 that was originally set aside for a business incubator on Washington Street for the “Babe” James renovation. An additional $200,000 has also been appropriated for possible additions to the design that could include a new sound system for the multipurpose room and gym, and new air conditioning system for the gym.\nThe project could be put out to bid next month. When construction begins, city officials say they will look at temporary locations to host the programs normally held at the “Babe” James Center. Possibilities include the Minerva Civic Center or leasing portables and placing them at Pettis Park.\nConstruction on the 15,885 square foot “Babe” James Center began in 1998 and was funded by more than $1.1 million in Community Development Block Grant funds, according to the U.S. Housing and Urban Development’s website.\nA number of meetings were held in Westside neighborhood to get feedback from Westside residents about the center’s expansion.\n“I really felt like the input was in there and it really worked out, and I think it’s going to be a great project,” said Commissioner Kirk Jones, whose zone includes the Westside neighborhood.", "label": "Yes"}

{"text": "Pickering Polished Concrete Flooring (YO18): Polished concrete flooring was something that was in general only previously seen in basements, commercial buildings and supermarkets, but these days residential properties in Pickering quite often benefit from this useful material. The aesthetic appeal of polished concrete has been elevated recently by the state-of-the-art ability to colour and seal the concrete, meaning that, much less expensively, it's able to rival the previously more widely used stone flooring options such as slate, marble and granite. Therefore an array of benefits and solutions can be enjoyed by building contractors and home renovation specialists by the use of polished concrete flooring.\nSustainability is among the leading advantages of polished concrete flooring in these days of environmental concern. Polishedhas a comparatively low effect on the environment. All that's necessary in most cases is the sanding, sealing and buffing of the existing concrete base (in homes which have one), with no additional costly wanted. Also very few chemical vapours are emitted by the compounds used in polished concrete, consequently the internal air quality and the outside environment is not harmed by the process. Also, there is no permanent smell released by the products sealing and polishing sealing and polishing concrete floors.\nConcrete floors also offer great value for your money. Concrete's been the most cost effectiveoption out there for many years. The chances are that your property will already have a concrete floor, because most houses in Pickering are built on a big concrete chunk. More familiar materials like vinyl, tiling, wood and carpets have been laid on top of it for comfort and diversity. With a perfectly good which only needs to be treated, little else could be achieved at less cost. Even on the warmest of summer's days, a concrete floor will remain cool, reducing the need for any sort of expensive cooling or air-conditioning. The incredibly reflective qualities of polished concrete surfaces might also reduce the necessity for lighting, consequently allowing you to save more expense.\nA fantastic plus side to polishedis that it is very low maintenance. The continual cleaning needed with commonplace floor materials is a key inconvenience. As an example wooden flooring needs waxing and polishing, rugs and carpets need constant vacuuming and marble floors are vulnerable to scuffing and need chemical cleaning products. In stark contrast a polished concrete floor is highly immune to scratching and tarnishing, and generally just needs a quick mopping. Time and money can be saved along with the added practicalities of this attribute.\nDurability is certainly one of the key characteristics of concrete flooring. Some of the toughest floors in Pickering homes are made of treated concrete. As reported by scientific studies concrete floors that are correctly treated are anticipated to last for a minimum of 100 years. Because of this, those individuals with that knowledge in Pickering have for some time employed this type of floor surface for high-footfall areas like factories, gyms, offices, restaurants, public buildings and high street shops. Moisture damage and rotting is hardly ever a problem as the concrete has the capacity to \"breathe\". Various other kinds of flooring such as vinyl or tile can trap water, causing expensive repairs and replacements.\nThere can also be health rewards gained with the implementation of polished concrete floor surfaces. Allergies and breathing problems are known to be induced by dust mites. The problem is that viruses, bacteria and mites can quickly multiply in the long fibres of carpets and the cutouts and joints of tiles and wooden floorboards. There's nowhere for these things to accumulate with polished concrete floors, as the final surface is smooth and seamless. If you're aiming to end up with an allergy-free environment thenconcrete floors are definitely the way to go.\nAs concrete is so adaptive, it offers Pickering householders umpteen options and alternatives. The a variety of treatments which are available mean that you're able to generate pretty much any look that you desire. Surface penetrating silicon based sealers can be used to acquire the popular \"wet\" look, which is perceived as the hallmark of polished concrete floors. Polished concrete floors can be fashioned to mimic a faux tile effect. If the desired appearance is floor boards a wooden plank pattern can be stamped into the concrete. The concrete can beto reveal a cross section of the aggregate stones with spectacular results.\nResin Flooring Pickering\nPickering residents and business proprietors alike can benefit from the beauty and durability of resin flooring as a flooring choice. It consists of synthetic resin and a diverse array of specialist aggregates. The cure time of each resin type varies. Depending on the type and application, it may be necessary to use a primer before applying the other layers.\nResin flooring can mimic concrete, quartz stone or granite. It is durable and can withstand harsh cleaners, heat from equipment and intense foot traffic. In comparison, concrete deteriorates rapidly and is prone to damage due to chemicals. It's vital to choose a resin floor that can withstand such stresses and still look great.\nResin flooring is an excellent option for businesses in Pickering that require a floor covering that is resistant to high temperatures, chemicals and collisions. It can be used in many industries, including manufacturing, retail, construction and supermarkets. Some leading manufacturers of resin flooring use solvent-free solutions and produce extremely low quantities of VOCs. These qualities make resin flooring a great choice for the environment. However, it is important to note thatrequires proper installation to benefit from its many advantages.\nResin flooring can be costly, so it is important to shop around. Don't hesitate to seek guidance from a professional flooring specialist in Pickering if you have any questions regarding the best flooring option for your specific requirements.\nPolished Concrete Tiles Pickering\nThe understated elegance and luxury of polished concrete tiles have recently become more popular in contemporary properties in the Pickering area. They're suited to use in kitchens, bathrooms and sleek modern living areas as either floor or wall coverings. When harmonised with suitable lighting a wall adorned with polished concrete tiles can make a design statement all by itself.\nWhichever design scheme and decor you might have, there are polished concrete tiles to match; from brilliant white or dark granite natural finishes, to attractive colours to show off your individuality. The versatility of the material from which these tiles are made means they can be fashioned to any desired size and shape for your particular style; embedded decorative features, different textures and bold cut-outs are all achievable with polished concrete tiles.\nPolished Concrete Finishes\nCreating a stylish and distinctive look for your property in Pickering is possible with polished concrete flooring and the wide array of finishes that are out there. To complement your interior design plans perfectly, there are several different concrete flooring strategies which you can use. No matter if you're starting with a blank slate, or polishing an existing concrete slab, there are a number of different facets which can be tailored to give the perfect finish to your flooring.\nWhen you get right down to it, every single polished concrete floor in Pickering is unique and different, regardless of the finishes and procedures you implement. The final look of your flooring can even be influenced by the locale of your home, and exactly where the sand and aggregate originates from. Fundamentally, bronze polished concrete, silver polished concrete, gold polished finishes, and platinum finishes, are the most important polished concrete finishes. You can produce various different finishes by using different aggregates, employing stained concrete overlays and changing the level of grind.\nStaining a Concrete Floor\nConcrete floor staining is an affordable way to give a room a brand new look. Create a polished, enduring look for your floors with a variety of colour options available in concrete stains.\nProperly prepping the concrete surface is crucial to the success of the staining process. This involves thoroughly cleaning the surface and repairing any cracks or damage. It's significant to shield the surrounding locales with tape or plastic sheeting to prevent any incidental marking.\nOnce the surface has been prepped, it's time to apply the stain using a brush or sprayer, ensuring even coverage with each pass. To ensure evenness, it's crucial to work in small sections and blend each one into the next.\nWhen the stain is entirely dry, it's advisable to apply a sealer that will safeguard the surface and enhance the hue. With regular care and maintenance, a stained concrete floor can remain durable and stylish for the years ahead. Proper and routine maintenance is crucial to the upkeep of a, and this can entail sweeping or vacuuming frequently, wiping up spills promptly, and refraining from using abrasive cleaning agents that can cause damage.\nis a flooring option that is distinctive and elegant, and it has gained popularity for its durability and unique appearance. Terrazzo flooring, which originated in Italy during the fifteenth century, has remained a much sought-after choice for both commercial and residential buildings in Pickering, even as it has evolved over the years.\nThe binder used in terrazzo flooring is usually cement or epoxy resin, and the materials that are embedded in the binder include quartz, glass pieces, marble chips, and other aggregates. This blend of materials creates a surface that is both beautiful and functional. The floor surface is polished after being ground down to achieve a smooth and glossy finish.\nDesign flexibility is one of the most striking features of. It can adapt to any interior design scheme or aesthetic, facilitated by the wide selection of aggregate choices and colours available for customisation. The flexibility of this feature ensures it can be integrated into various spaces, from historic buildings to modern offices, shops, and even contemporary homes in Pickering.

{"text": "User Equilibrium Route Assignment for Microscopic Pedestrian Simulation\nFor the simulation of pedestrians a method is introduced to find routing alternatives from any origin position to a given destination area in a given geometry composed of walking areas and obstacles. The method includes a parameter which sets a threshold for the approximate minimum size of obstacles to generate routing alternatives. The resulting data structure for navigation is constructed such that it does not introduce artifacts to the movement of simulated pedestrians and that locally pedestrians prefer to walk on the shortest path. The generated set of routes can be used with iterating static or dynamic assignment methods.\nKeywords: dynamic assignment, pedestrians, microsimulation\nA model of pedestrian dynamics in the simplest case has to include three separate elements: 1) a method to determine the main walking direction towards the destination, 2) a method to avoid collisions respectively to resolve conflicts between pedestrians and 3) a method to avoid bumping into walls and even more important to avoid passing through walls.\nThese operational models of pedestrian dynamics usually also address issue 1). They might apply different methods to solve it, but normally they assume that it is the direction of the shortest path (fewest meters) to destination which pedestrians are heading for. Quote from : “He/She wants to reach a certain destination as comfortable as possible. Therefore he/she normally takes a way without detours, i.e., the shortest possible way.” See subsection 3.3 for a description of two very common ways to implement this principle.\nThis idea may be correct or at least a good approximation in situations with a very low pedestrian density. However, at higher densities and in particular with locally varying densities collision avoidance and conflict resolution imply discomfort and time delays. If collision avoidance and conflict resolution are required over proportionally often along the shortest path the more comfortable and/or the quicker path to destination may be along some detour.\nObviously when pedestrian density is moderate to high only few, if any, pedestrians can really walk on the shortest path. Everyone else has to do some additional meters. In models of pedestrian dynamics as referenced above these extra meters result from collision avoidance or conflict resolution which in the simplest case is just a hard-core exclusion. However, such deviations from the shortest path are not detours in the sense of the previous paragraph. Detours in the sense of the previous paragraph are paths which result from pedestrians trying to spread out to reduce density, increase comfort, and reduce travel times. For the matter of models of pedestrian dynamics: a simplest case model of pedestrian dynamics is extended by an element which makes pedestrians avoid having to avoid collisions or prevents pedestrians having to resolve conflicts.\nThere are various approaches to address this problem. Some of these will be discussed in section 3 on previous work.\nThe approach adopted in this work is to create a relatively small set of routing alternatives between origin and destination. With the help of intermediate destinations each pedestrian is made to walk along one of the routes. While approaching an intermediate destination a pedestrian can be controlled with one of the operational models mentioned above. In particular each pedestrian can walk into the direction of the shortest path. Navigation along the shortest path is simple and computationally cheap because the map of distance to (intermediate) destination is a constant contrary to the metric of estimated travel time to (intermediate) destination [14, 15, 16, 17]. The detour compared to the shortest path between origin and destination only results as a consequence of sequentially approaching a number of intermediate destinations. Therefore the proposed approach aims at combining the efficient navigation along the shortest path with pedestrians who are able to walk detours between origin area and destination area by passing a sequence of intermediate destinations.\nTwo routes between the same origin and destination can be different, but are still not perceived as actual routing alternatives by a pedestrian or car driver because they are not sufficiently distinct [18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23]. An example from road traffic can easily exemplify this: let’s say the best or at least a good route – judged on travel time or distance or some other factor or a combination of many factors – from Paris to Berlin passes by Cologne. A naïve computation of the second best route would probably bring up a solution where some 100 meters of the highway are replaced by the parallel section via a highway parking place. However, the user of a navigation device would not actually perceive this as a real (substantial, relevant) alternative to the first solution, but rather a route maybe via Antwerp or Frankfurt although both of these routes have a higher expected travel time than the route via the highway parking place near Cologne. The routing alternatives computed by the method proposed in this work are mutually distinct not only in the sense that they cannot be transformed one into the other with a homotopic operation, but mutually distinct by a configurable minimum degree – they are substantially different, respectively pose relevant alternatives.\nLast but not least the intermediate destinations are computed geometrically such that locally they do not change pedestrian behavior in particular not introduce unnatural artifacts into the movement dynamics. I.e. someone observing an animated visualization of the simulation could not tell the presence of an intermediate destination.\nIn the remainder first a motivation for the proposed method is given. The consequent section contains a discussion of preceding relevant work. This is followed by the section which defines the method. Finally the method is applied to an example. In the appendix we give definitions for the phrases we use in this work.\nA note to readers who are not entirely familiar with all topics which are touched in this paper: it may be easier to read first the section giving an example (6) as it should give an intuitive understanding of the properties of the simulation system as well as the results of the method which is proposed and only then proceed here.\n2 Motivation: Computing User-Equilibria\nFinding and evaluating the user equilibrium network load for road networks (traffic assignment) is one of the core tasks of traffic planning. After Wardrop had formulated the principles nowadays named after him  various algorithms to solve this problem have been developed over the years [25, 26, 27, 28].\nThe main hindrance for the application of these algorithms with pedestrian traffic is that all these algorithms are formulated for application with discrete networks, i.e. they compute flows on a node-edge graph. Pedestrians on the contrary can and do move continuously in two spatial dimensions. Their walking area can have holes (obstacles), but this does not change the fact that even when loops are excluded there are infinitely many possible paths for a pedestrian to walk from an origin to a destination.\nThere are two ways to face the resulting challenge: either one develops an entirely different assignment algorithm for pedestrian traffic – this was done for example in [29, 30] – or one extracts from the pedestrian walking area in a well-grounded suitable way a graph structure which can be used with existing assignment methods. The routes computed with the method presented in this contribution can be seen to be such a graph structure.\nA user equilibrium can only be found in a mathematically thorough way with an iterative method. Any non-iterative (one-shot) method can only come close to an equilibrium by chance and will work better in one scenario and worse in a different one. “Iterative” means that the results of one iteration step are used to determine the route choice ratios (i.e. the loads for the routes) in the next iteration step111An iteration step can comprise of one or more simulation runs. In the latter case the results are aggregated over the various runs to get the foundation for the next iteration step.. “Non-iterative” means that route decision ratios are dependent on what happens or has happened in the same simulation run.\nThe resulting graph of the method proposed in this paper cannot only be used with such iterated methods that aim for the user equilibrium, but also with other route choice problems and methods. However, iterated assignment aiming to find a user equilibrium can be seen as the “core business” of the method presented in this paper222At least this is currently the authors’ opinion. Time might show that the routes computed with the methods of this article are more often used outside the scope of iterated assignment. This would not limit the relevance of the method at all. Just for the moment we are excited to have the foundation to combine long standing models of pedestrian dynamics with iterated assignment.. The reason for this is that there are more non-iterative (“one-shot”) approaches for route choice. The section on existing work will discuss some of these and clarify this claim. With more alternative options available the method presented in this work appears to be less essential. For that reason in the following three paragraphs we motivate the formulation of the routing graph generation method of this paper by emphasizing the relevance of the user equilibrium in pedestrian traffic.\nSo, how relevant is user equilibrium in pedestrian traffic? After all on vehicular road networks a near-equilibrium state occurs day by day because of the commuters’ workday by workday experience with a traffic system which is near or beyond its capacity. Are there comparable situations (repeated near-system-capacity demand which makes pedestrians accept to walk considerable detours to reduce walking time) for pedestrians as well? It is probably safe to say that there are less such situations and that they can be less clearly spotted compared to the daily vehicular rush hour. However, they can exist for example in large metropolitan stations  and will more often occur there in the future considered the contemporary global urbanization dynamics .\nEven in situations where one cannot assume that a user equilibrium is realized because there is no repeated experience with the situation there can be a clear benefit in knowing the user equilibrium. Take as example emergency evacuations. Emergency evacuations are a highly relevant application case for pedestrian simulations and emergency evacuations are the exact opposite of commuting regarding experience: even if emergency evacuation trainings are held frequently one can say that a real emergency evacuation usually is the first time experience for all occupants at least concerning the particular building. For usually the user equilibrium will be the more efficient solution than the distribution which emerges naturally in an emergency evacuation, a planner can take measures to shift the system toward the user equilibrium. In emergency evacuation planning this could for example be done with additional or different route signage. 333One might ask if it was more desirable then to know the system optimum distribution (for which the routes computed with the method of this article could also serve as a base). However, particularly for emergency evacuation planning attempting to implement with signage the system-optimal distribution rather than the user equilibrium raises an ethical question: is it allowed to send a few people on paths which are suboptimal for them to benefit many others? The second argument against going for the system optimum is a question of its relevance: the experience in vehicular road traffic is that in realistic networks often there is not much of a difference between user equilibrium and system optimum . Despite the existence of Braess’ Paradox in vehicular road traffic  and despite the fact that one can construct examples with counter-intuitive effects for pedestrian traffic as well  one can suspect that for realistic examples the user equilibrium can serve as a good solution and thus as benchmark to compare other solutions with.\nAs a third argument in favor of the relevance of user equilibrium assignment for pedestrian traffic simulations one can hypothesize that pedestrians at least in certain situations have an intuitive understanding of how a pedestrian flow situation will evolve even if they are faced with the particular situation for the first time and that they will distribute close to the user equilibrium.\nOf course pedestrians do not in all situations distribute according to the user equilibrium. Pedestrian route choice can depend on many other factors, including the availability and distribution of landmarks as well as social aspects . Universality, however, is not required that a method to compute it is relevant. It is sufficient if these situations exist and planners have an understanding which situations these are.\n3 Existing Work\n3.1 Models of Operational Pedestrian Dynamics\nThere is a great number of models of operational pedestrian dynamics which route pedestrians on the spatially shortest path. These models fall into a number of categories. For example so-called Cellular-automata models are manifestly formulated in discrete space and discrete time [37, 9, 13]. Different to these force-based models as the Social Force Model [1, 4] and most other force-based models [3, 5] are formulated in discrete time and discrete space. Usually their temporal aspect can be discretized or has to be discretized as the only way to solve the system equations is a numerical integration . For an overview of these and other operational models of pedestrian dynamics see for example [39, 40]. These models are interesting here in so far as – according to the motivation stated above – they lack an important element which is supplied with the method proposed in this paper. The sheer number of these models underlines the relevance of our method yet on the other side makes it impossible to discuss or even just mention all of them here. Instead we will shortly discuss some models and methods which address the same issue as our method does.\n3.2 Models of Pedestrian Dynamics which Include Elaborate Route Planning Methods\nTo the authors’ knowledge so far there has not been proposed another general method that analyzes and computes pedestrian routing alternatives in a thorough way such that it can be used with existing methods for iterated assignment of a microscopic pedestrian simulation without introducing artifacts into the movement of pedestrians. However, if the stated properties are contrasted with their opposite – iterated vs. one-shot, microscopic vs. macroscopic, discrete route vs. continuous space, and time interval vs. continuous time – then there has been a number of contributions which aim in the same direction of making simulated pedestrians avoid having to avoid conflicts.\nAn iterated assignment in continuous space and time with a macroscopic approach has been proposed Hoogendoorn and Bovy in . The paper – together with  – also gives a good problem formulation and overview of the fundamentals of pedestrian assignment. Different to our method and as usual for continuous space approaches this method does not make route choices explicit in the sense that it generates routes as identifiable data objects. One can assume that such a method is computationally very demanding as it considers infinitely many routes instead of singling out relevant route choices to work with these.\nKemloh Wagoum et al. proposed a dynamic one-shot route choice method with discrete routes which distinguishes between locally and globally optimal routes and between shortest and quickest path . A node-link network structure is extracted from the geometry where rooms are nodes and doors or corridors are links. Pedestrians with a (locally) quickest routing strategy observe other pedestrians in the same node (room) and their current speed. Based on this they make an estimation on what is the quickest route. The focus of the work clearly is set on modeling the “internal state” of a pedestrian – if he or she is in a hurry or not or patient or not – and thus applies a shortest or a quickest path strategy. It is furthermore modeled in an elaborate way how he or she selects a reference pedestrian and draws conclusions from this pedestrian’s current walking speed. There is on the contrary no discussion of the semantics of a walking infrastructure. It is implicitly assumed that rooms and corridors (or doors) can always be identified easily and uniquely, hereby assuming that doors or corridors are the bottlenecks, i.e. the capacity limiting elements and that rooms are spill-back and jamming areas, which have no effects on capacity. These assumptions hold for functional building infrastructure as for example office buildings. Station halls, airport terminals and urban public spaces as examples on the contrary usually are comprised of a mixture of obstacles and walking spaces which does not allow such a clear distinction between room and corridor respectively node and link. As a consequence the possibility to distinguish – in the sense of the algorithm – between global and local gets lost. The algorithm proposed by Kemloh et al. may be applicable in such a scenario or at least a share of such scenarios. Then, however, the node-link network would have to be created specifically for this application in a particular scenario. The paper does not give a general method for its construction, i.e. the focus of this paper is not a method to produce routing alternatives, but on the method to decide which route to take.\nAnother approach is to base navigation on a visibility graph  or a graph derived from it  and either use – in a one-shot approach – the pedestrian densities in the vicinity of the links to estimate current travel times and thus navigate pedestrians on the instantaneously estimated quickest route [46, 47] or the travel times on the links in the previous time interval of the same simulation run or the travel times on the links in a previous iteration in an iterative approach. Problems arise from the visibility graph only offering navigation points. This inescapably leads to problems which will be discussed below. Furthermore a visibility graph also includes route alternatives generated by very small obstacles like litter bins which can be handled by the operational part of a simulation model.\nA continuous space, continuous-time, one-shot method was introduced by Treuille et al. in . Crowd movement here is determined by the computation of an optimal path under consideration of distance, travel time (resp. speed), and discomfort, which results in one single “dynamic potential” respectively its differential form the “unit cost field”. While pedestrians are represented microscopically the interaction between them is exclusively transferred via the common dynamic potential i.e. in a macroscopic manner. The model therefore can arguably be referred to as a mesoscopic model. This method as well does not generate routes as identifiable data objects.\nBased on the principle of least effort referring to energy consumption Guy et al. proposed a related continuous-time, one-shot method in which a strong congestion avoidance behavior emerges . In this model it is the current average speed in the vicinity of the links of a precomputed node-link roadmap444Only few details on the nature of the roadmap are given in the paper. which determines the expected energy to traverse a link and thus route choice. One could consider this method as “almost continuous space” as the pedestrians are moving in this way, while the route choice determining effects are transmitted via a node-link graph.\nAnother continuous space, (almost) continuous time, one-shot method for use with microscopic simulation has been introduced by Kretz et al. in [50, 51]. In this approach a map of estimated remaining travel time to destination (called “dynamic potential”) of which the pedestrians use the negative gradients as their desired walking direction to walk into the direction of the quickest path. This desired walking direction then is used in a variant of the Social Force Model . This implies interaction between identified individuals and therefore that the whole model is truly microscopic. The dynamic potential is computed in instantaneous time, i.e. for locations ahead of a pedestrian the current conditions are used as input for the computation and not (estimated) future conditions of the time when the pedestrian (potentially) will be there. This is not necessarily a drawback for the degree of realism, as real pedestrians also have only a very limited capacity to guess future conditions beyond a few seconds unless the situation can be recognized to be about steady-state in which the dynamic potential approach also works fine. While the simulation results appear realistic, the approach does not indicate if the evolution of the simulation is close to an equilibrium solution.\nRelated to the continuous space, one-shot methods is an idea by van Toll et al. to explicitly measure density on polygon-shaped, discrete, non-overlapping areas and compute from these densities expected travel times along a navigation map .\n3.3 Navigation Methods\nThere is a large amount of literature on navigation methods for the simulation of pedestrians or control of robots . Navigation means to guide a simulated pedestrian or a robot to a given destination while considering obstacles. A simulated pedestrian or a robot should neither bump into obstacles nor get trapped in a dead-end and not find out anymore. There are mainly two methods to solve this problem: with sparse navigation graphs or with distance maps also called static potentials. We understand navigation here as the element of a method which sets the basic direction of movement. There can be other elements in a model of pedestrian dynamics which modify this basic direction. For example for the Social Force Model we think of the driving force term as incorporating the navigation aspect while the forces from other pedestrians are a refinement which one could call “sub-navigational”.\nThe idea of navigation graphs is to have a small set of vertices – navigation points – of which at each time each pedestrian has one where (s)he is heading for. The vertices are connected to a graph in a way that a link exists, if two vertices are mutually visible, i.e. there is no obstacle in the direct line of sight. As visibility is the guiding principle in the construction of such a graph it is usually called a visibility graph 555Another variant to construct a basic graph is to compute the (generalized) Voronoi diagram of the obstacles . An elaborate variant introduced in  for example largely reduces the problem of artificial bottlenecks, but still navigation elements (in said paper called‘navigation graph edges) generally introduce artifacts to the local motion as illustrated in section 4.. Further construction principles are that the graph should have as few nodes as possible and that navigating a single pedestrian from node to node allows navigation on the shortest path666A navigation graph could also be applied with a different paradigm for example that the walking direction should have a minimum angle with some landmark. However, most of the time walking distance is the decisive criterion. to the destination for any origin position. Once a navigation graph is computed the shortest paths on it can easily be computed using for example Dijkstra’s algorithm  Figure 1 shows a simple example of a navigation graph which leads the shortest way around one single obstacle to a destination.\nNavigation graphs are an intuitive and almost self-suggesting approach for navigation in simulation of pedestrians and control of robots . The method works well to navigate individuals. Problems occur when it is used to navigate groups – crowds or swarms. As swarms of robots are rare – although this has begun to change  – the method usually works well in the field of robotics. To navigate crowds of pedestrians (or swarms of robots) the method can become problematic. Having the navigation graph and the correct sequence of nodes to the destination is not sufficient. At each time step of a simulation one has to select one of the nodes as current destination node.\nThe simplest way is to define an arrival distance to which a pedestrian has to get close to a navigation node and if the pedestrian has come that close or closer in later simulation time steps the next node is used as destination node. If only a single pedestrian is moving in the vicinity of a navigation node the arrival distance can be set at a small value (about a body diameter). It even has to be set such small as a larger arrival distance would make the pedestrian proceed too early with the subsequent node and eventually make him bump into a wall, even get trapped in a dead-end. If on the contrary there is a large group of pedestrians heading for a navigation node in reality not all pedestrians pass by the node really close. If one has set a small arrival distance a navigation node poses an artificial bottleneck: one after the other pedestrian of the group has to pass by close to the navigation point to be able to proceed – compare the discussion in  and for example figure 6 of . One might attempt to fix the problem by adjusting for each navigation node individually the arrival distance depending on the surrounding pedestrian density, but this is a rather complicated and computation intensive fix which takes away much attractiveness from the original approach drawn from its simplicity.\nA second possible way to select a navigation point is to make pedestrians always head for that navigation node which is a) visible from the pedestrians current position and b) closest to the destination area. This immediately fixes the problem of pedestrians possibly getting stuck or bumping into a wall at the cost of having to permanently do costly visibility computation throughout the simulation. For the purpose of this contribution this second way to choose navigation node is ruled out for another reason which is illustrated and explained in figure 2.\nAs a consequence of these difficulties the approach of a navigation graph is discarded as a whole for the purpose of this contribution. Distance maps respectively potential fields are chosen instead as base method.\nThe method of distance maps or static potentials has been popular for modeling pedestrian dynamics in particular in use with cellular automata models [9, 10, 11, 12, 62, 63, 64, 65, 66]. The reason for this is probably that the data structure of the distance map fits well to the spatial representation of cellular automata models: a regular usually rectangular grid. Figure 3 visualizes an example of a distance map.\nIn cellular automata models the distance maps are usually used such that pedestrians move with higher probability to a cell which is closer to the destination. In other modeling approaches which do not directly operate with space, but rather with velocity or acceleration as for example the force-based models do777An example for a model where the gradients are used for the velocity instead of he acceleration (as in force-based models) is discussed in , pedestrians follow the negative gradient of the distance map at their current position. “Follow” here means that this direction is used as preferred or desired or base direction and may be subject to modifications as consequence of influence of for example other pedestrians or limited acceleration ability. Figure 4 shows an example for the field of gradients.\nFor reasons of simplicity and computation speed some models of pedestrian dynamics compute the distance map using a simple flood fill method: at the destination area all grid values are set to zero. Then a “flood” is driven outward simply either moving only over common edges or over common edges and common corners from cell to cell. In each of these steps a counting parameter is increased by one. The value of this counting parameter is set as grid cell value when the flood front passes the grid cell. The resulting metric is not Euclidean, but either Manhattan metric (if in the flooding process only common edges are passed) or checkerboard metric (if also common corners are passed). A detailed discussion of these methods and variants can be found in .\n4 Problem Illustration\nImagine a walking geometry as shown in figure 5. In this case it is easy to make pedestrians pass the obstacle on either side by introducing on each side of the obstacle an intermediate destination area. This is shown in figure 6. With the intermediate areas and the routes which include them, it is possible to route pedestrians locally into the direction of the shortest path, but still make a given fraction of pedestrians detour.\nIn figure 6 the lower intermediate destination area was not necessary. Having a route directly leading from the origin to the destination area would have the same effect as long as pedestrians basically follow the direction of the spatially shortest path. In this case the lower intermediate destination area does not change the path of the pedestrians on that route compared to the case without any intermediate destination area. This is not in general the case. In general it is difficult to shape the intermediate destinations such that the path on the in principal shortest route is not distorted compared to the case without intermediate destination. Figure 7 shows such a case. It is concluded that the intermediate destination areas cannot be of trivial shape (rectangles) in general.\nThe basic idea is now that the intermediate destination areas need to be shaped along the equi-distance (equi-potential) lines of the destination area distance map (static potential). This is shown in figure 9. For if an intermediate destination area is shaped along the equi-distance lines of the next downstream (intermediate) destination area the equi-distance it produces itself are – in some surrounding of the intermediate destination – in line with the ones of the next downstream (intermediate) destination. This implies that the gradients of both distance fields locally are identical. Thus the preferred walking direction remains unchanged no matter which of the two (intermediate) destinations a pedestrian is heading for.\n5 Method Formulation\nThis section introduces a method for usage in simulations of pedestrian dynamics that computes for a given origin and a given destination area the shape of intermediate destination areas. as well as the routes which these are a part of. The method includes a parameter which determines the approximate diameter above which an obstacle or a hole in the walking area creates a routing alternative. Figure 10 shows as an overview the steps which are explained in the following subsections.\nThe first step is to compute a distance map for the destination (respectively for all destinations; this option is implied in the following) for which alternative routes ought to be computed. Next the modulo display of this potential as it is shown on the right side of Figure 3 is computed. This is not only a useful display to see the properties of the distance map clearer, but its structure also plays a crucial role in finding the intermediate destination areas. Figure 11 shows the same potential for various modulo values .\nFigure 12 shows a modification of Figure 11. The gradual color change from black to white has been omitted. Instead one range from black to white is shown in one and the same color and the next range in a different one. In this way areas which are within some distance range from the destination are grouped.\nThe coloring of Figure 12 (left and center figure) is the key for the further steps in the method. All regions which share the property of the magenta colored region have to be identified. These are regions, which are unique for their range of distances to destination, but which have two unconnected regions directly neighbored which are closer to the destination than they are.\nRelevant origin positions of a pedestrian in a simulation of the scenario of Figure 12 are the light and dark orange and the magenta regions as well as the light and dark cyan regions which are further away from the destination than the magenta area. If a pedestrian’s origin position is on a cyan area which is closer to the destination than the closest orange area no route alternatives are generated.\nIn almost all simulation models of pedestrian dynamics the base direction is set into the direction of the shortest path. This implies that it is determined by the origin position if a pedestrian passes the (red) obstacle to the right or to the left side. If we want to choose freely if a pedestrian passes the obstacle either to the left or the right side, the magenta region in Figure 12 is the critical one. Once a pedestrian has passed it on the intended side of the obstacle, the shortest path paradigm will take the pedestrian on this very side to the destination; the pedestrian will not turn around anymore and pass the obstacle on the other side.\nTherefore the two light orange regions immediately neighbored to the magenta region are made intermediate destination areas. Each of the two is assigned to one route, generating a route choice. Sending a pedestrian over one of the two routes ensures that he passes the obstacle on the intended side.\nObviously not only the shape of the additional intermediate destination areas depends on parameter , but first and foremost if it exists at all. The right figure of Figure 12 shows no additional intermediate destination areas because the value of parameter has been chosen too large.\nParameter therefore has the role of a wave length: just as an object cannot be seen if it is smaller than the wave length of light which is shed on it. Just as a ship which is smaller than the wave length in the surrounding sea is just going up and down but not disturbing and reflecting the waves, an obstacle which is smaller than the value of parameter remains invisible in the sense that it has no effect (of creating an additional intermediate destination).\nThe choice of the value of parameter at first might appear to be arbitrary and its existence therefore as a major downside of the method. However, first, simulation models of pedestrian dynamics usually contain elements to deal with obstacles: pedestrians walking around them, keeping some distance, etc.. For small obstacles these elements can make pedestrians pass on either side even if the model of pedestrian dynamics has no elaborate route choice method included. Thus, for small obstacles no additional route choice method is required. Second, for the purpose of computational efficiency and limited computation resources, in large simulation projects it can be desirable to not consider every existing routing alternative, but only the major ones. Then one may set the value of parameter to larger values to maintain a feasible simulation efforts.\nAt the very end of this contribution we show that there are geometries where it would be favorable to have a small value for parameter . However, for the reason to be able to select the size of obstacles which create route alternatives and because we think that the approach with the areas created by integer division of distances is very illustrative we stick with it and will discuss later also how to fix the emerging problem.\nThe left side of Figure 12 suggests that there is some arbitrariness in selecting the regions which are directly neighbored to the magenta region as intermediate destination areas. Why not two of the dark orange or the other two light orange regions? The answer can be found by considering pedestrians who have an origin position somewhere on the dark orange or light orange regions. It is desired to be able to also assign such pedestrians a route which leads over an intermediate destination area on the opposite side of the obstacle. If that intermediate destination area was moved toward the destination, some pedestrians would approach the intermediate destination from the back side. This implies an unrealistic trajectory and is therefore not desired. In fact because any intermediate destination area has a finite depth, there can be a small area where this occurs although the region closest to the magenta region has been made an intermediate destination area. This problematic region is the larger, the larger the value of parameter is. Realizing this it is important to realize as well that only the shape of the front side of an intermediate destination is relevant. The function of parameter is to determine existence of intermediate destination areas not their depth. The depth can be reduced to the point that it is still guaranteed that any pedestrian heading to the intermediate destination does not have to slow down to step on it for at least one time step. Nevertheless for the remainder of this contribution we will not modify the shape of intermediate destination areas in this way. The unmodified shape simply gives a clearer impression of the idea.\n5.2 Multiple Obstacles\nIn the previous subsection the basic idea of the method was demonstrated in an example with just one obstacle. One has to give some additional thoughts on the usual case with more than one obstacle.\nIf there is more than one obstacle in a scenario the basic idea presented above has to be applied recursively. This is shown in Figures 13 to 15. Figure 13 shows the initial computation step for and with the potential. The dark orange regions are identified as intermediate destinations to pass the downstream obstacle, the light orange regions have the same role for the upstream obstacle. However, the shape of the upstream regions is computed with respect to the destination. If we want to be able to send pedestrians without artifacts in their trajectories on routes which lead from an upstream intermediate destination area to that downstream intermediate area which is more remote respectively, we have to calculate the shape of the upstream intermediate destination areas with respect to the downstream intermediate destination areas. For one of the two downstream intermediate destination areas this is demonstrated in Figure 14\nThe brown region in Figure 14 – the region which is closer to the destination than the downstream intermediate destination area – marks the region where pedestrians’ origin positions do not generate routing alternatives. Also when the map of distances – the potential – is computed beginning at the downstream intermediate destination area, the brown region must not be intruded. For the computation of routing alternatives – not later in the simulation – it is therefore treated as if it was an obstacle. If the brown region was intruded during the computation of the potential then short cut paths could result which would lead to unrealistic movement and thus spoil the intended effect of the method. Figure 15 finally shows all resulting intermediate destination areas and resulting routes.\nIn Figure 15 one can see that the original route without intermediate destinations is preserved – it is the route which ends at the central of the nine destination dots which are depicted in green. Of the nine routes the one to the first green destination point from bottom, second, third, and fifth from bottom basically are identical as they either have no intermediate destination point or if they have then they are along the globally shortest path.\nThe third, fifth, and seventh route from bottom (those with only one yellow marked intermediate destination, no intermediate destination, and only one cyan marked intermediate destination) can be identified easily within the algorithm as ones which multiply existing routes. As within the first iteration step on the search for upstream intermediate destinations four results are found (yellow and cyan downstream as well as the two magenta ones) one can erase the route without intermediate destination. As within the second iteration step starting at the downstream yellow (cyan) area two more intermediate destinations are found, one can erase the route with just one yellow (cyan) intermediate destination. Put in a different way: said three routes only result if one considers an intermediate destination area which was dealt with in the n-th recursion step also in the n+1-th recursion step, even if in the n-th step one or more upstream intermediate destinations were found.\nWhat remains are the two magenta intermediate destinations. These cannot so easily be identified as routes which only double the effect of other routes as they could be required if route choice was nested (see next subsection).\nFor these remaining double routes the question is if they imply a problem or an inefficiency in an assignment method? It is surely not a serious problem with respect to assignment methods. Most assignment methods can deal with multiple identical routes. In realistic networks there are always routes which overlap. Assignment methods have to cope with this. Identical routes are simply routes which overlap by 100%.\nGenerally the recursive search for further upstream intermediate destination areas comes to an end when the potential (the distance map) covers the entire walking area888In principle one can already stop when the starting area (or all starting areas) is covered. For this, however, one has to know for sure when executing the algorithm where the starting area is. If this is not known or if it can change one has to consider the whole walking area., but no further area with properties as the magenta areas in the example is found.\nThe next two subsections consider further termination considerations for the recursion.\n5.3 Nested route choices\nFigure 15 raises the question, if the intermediate destination areas whose edges are colored magenta could be dropped together with their routes. Obviously the two routes do not actually add an alternative path choice. So is it sufficient to always just consider that routing alternative which is currently closest to destination (in Figure 13 marked by the dark orange areas in the lower figure) for further process and omit any more remote one (the light orange areas in Figure 13)?\nThe answer is“no” and the reason for this is that there are cases where route alternatives are nested; or in other words: it cannot necessarily be decided what is “upstream” and what “downstream”. Figure 16 demonstrates this with an example. Note that this example is not much different from the one in the previous subsection. The topological genus is the same. One can transfer one example into the other one by stretching and shrinking the geometry.\nIt can – of course – always be decided which of two points is spatially closer to a destination. However, in terms of travel time this is different. One can easily imagine in the third and fourth figure of Figure 16 where there has to be a jamming crowd of pedestrians to make the indicated path the quickest to destination although it implies and includes a spatial detour.\nIn reality people can walk loops. However, in planning tools – be it for vehicular or pedestrian traffic – one wants to exclude the emergence of loops from the algorithms unless the planner takes explicit measures to force loops occurring with a specified frequency. The method proposed so far produces sequences of intermediate destinations which lead to pedestrians walking in loops. This and how to avoid this will be discussed in this subsection.\nThe intermediate destination areas which are computed in the examples of this work share some properties: one could describe them as slightly distorted rectangles. Each rectangle has an upstream edge which is mainly adjacent to pedestrian walking space and in some cases partly to obstacles. The opposing side is the downstream side, also neighbored to walking spaces and maybe partially to obstacles. The other two mutually opposing edges – and that is the relevant point here – are neighbored to obstacles or more general to spaces where pedestrians cannot walk. These common properties are not accidental in the examples of this contribution. Only when the intermediate destination areas are clamped between two obstacles they clearly separate the local environment into upstream and downstream. In other words: only when two opposing sides “touch” obstacles the other two sides can take the role of an upstream and a downstream side, only than can the area implicitly define a direction.\nThis raises the question how to deal with intermediate destinations where one or even both “obstacle edges” do not touch real obstacles, but a virtual obstacle – an area as the one marked brown in Figure 14 – emerging from the algorithm itself. Figure 17 shows that and how this can actually happen.\nIf such an intermediate destination area emerges from the algorithm it can and needs to be ignored together with the route which is linked with it. The algorithm recursion can terminate at this point. The reason for this is that such a construct can be interpreted as a loop in the route. The virtual obstacle in fact is a more downstream region. An intermediate destination area which is immediately neighbored to such a region implies that a pedestrian who is located on the intermediate destination area immediately next to the virtual obstacle with one small side step could skip a part of his route, respectively if he or she still would carry it out would walk a loop. Any pedestrian who is located somewhere else on the intermediate destination area could move on the intermediate destination area toward the virtual obstacle area. This should always be possible as intermediate destination areas are constructed to guide around bottlenecks, but do not contain some themselves. Therefore the reasoning applies for the whole intermediate destination area and not only the part next to the virtual obstacle.\n5.5 Location and the finite extent of intermediate destination areas\nFinally we have to come back to the previously mentioned problem that there are geometries, where the value for parameter in principle has to be very small. Figures 18 and 19 shows such an example. In fact it is not just an arbitrary example, but one of a class where the problem is most pronounced. This is the case when one or more of the detouring routes includes a u-turn. Put in different words: scenarios are problematic which include sharp turns respectively strong zig-zagging.\nThis problem is for three reasons not as severe for the method presented in this contribution as it might appear at first. The first reason is one of relevance: typically structures where pedestrians move are built such that pedestrian paths are curved but principally forward-bound, i.e. looking at Figure 18 one has rather to deal with situations similar to movement from the origin on the right side to the destination than from the origin on the left side. In these cases there is no problem no matter how large the value of parameter might be.\nThe second argument is that albeit in this contribution for purely illustrative reasons we have determined the extend – to be precise: the depth – of the intermediate destination areas from the value of parameter this is anything but required. The depth of the intermediate destination areas can be set independent of the value of parameter . The downstream edge does not even have to be bended in line with equi-distance lines, but could be a straight line. In many cases the problem will vanish if one chooses a depth for the intermediate destination areas which is just large enough so a pedestrian cannot jump over it within one simulation time step. In the extreme case of a simulation time step of one second and a pedestrian speed of 3 m/s the required depth would be 3 m. More typical would be a simulation time step of 0.1 seconds and a speed of 1.5 m/s resulting in a minimum required depth of 15 cm.\nReducing the depth of the intermediate destination area will not help for the example of Figure 18 as already the upstream edge is located too far downstream. However, these cases can be found and can also be fixed. One first has to check if every point on the edge of the starting area – or more general: the next upstream intermediate destination area – is closer to the upstream edge of the particular intermediate destination area. If this is not the case one has to shift the intermediate destination area upstream. So the third argument is: in those rare cases when the problem occurs it can reliably be found and fixed.\nStill the issue might re-enforce doubts on the benefit of parameter . To accept the additional effort described in this subsection that has to be done as a consequence of this approach, we have to recall that with the function related to parameter we can determine the order of size of obstacles which trigger an explicit routing alternative. In other words: it is in this way possible to define for agents (pedestrians) moving not on links but freely in 2D which two routes are sufficiently distinct. The modulo approach with parameter is about the existence or non-existence of intermediate destinations. This is highly beneficial. The side-effects concerning the position of the intermediate destinations compared to that are small and can furthermore be fixed.\n6 A small example\nAs this contribution focuses on the construction of the intermediate destination areas and the route alternatives we only present a minimal example of application with an assignment calculation. Figure 20 shows the geometry of the example. There are two large obstacles which have just an intermediate size that they can be seen as obstacles in one large room or as walls separating two different rooms. In addition there are four smaller obstacles which we want to have handled by the operational simulation model of pedestrian dynamics.\nThe algorithm proposed above gives the routes and intermediate destinations as shown in figure 21.\nIt can easily be seen in figure 21 that for the origin area as existing in this scenario routes 1, 3, and 6 as well as routes 2 and 5 in general imply the same routing for pedestrians999However, note that if the origin area was located somewhere else, for example in the upper left corner this would be different.. Transferring a concept from road traffic network assignment we can say they have a commonality factor of 1 , although a strict and general definition of the commonality factor for pedestrian routes will not be given here. Whereas the problem of routes with a high commonality factor is known from and relevant in vehicular traffic assignment, routes with a commonality factor of 1 do not exist there, respectively the problem is irrelevant. Such routes in road traffic could easily be spotted and eliminated as the data defining them would typically be identical (the same set of links).\nWith the line of argumentation pointed out in subsection 5.2 one could drop routes 1, 2, and 3. So in this example all routes with a commonality factor of 1 could be dropped. For this initial example we will, however, also investigate the case with six routes to get an idea of the effect of routes with a commonality factor of 1.\nFirst we will present the results of assignments iterations with only the routes 1, 2, and 4 respectively 4, 5, and 6. In these two cases no two routes do identical routing. The former case (1, 2, 4) includes routes with as few intermediate destinations as possible (i.e. much “freedom” for pedestrians or better said for the operational simulation model of pedestrian dynamics), the latter case includes routes with a maximum of intermediate destinations (i.e. as few freedom as possible).\nIn each computation the inflow on the origin area is on average 12,000 pedestrians per hour. This is over the capacity of the shortest path, but well below the total capacity of all paths. The relevant time interval is t=300 .. 600 seconds after simulation start. In each iteration only one simulation run has been carried out. The travel times of all pedestrians who arrive in this interval are considered for the assignment in the next iteration. The iteration process was continued until the difference between the longest and the shortest average route travel time was 0.5 seconds or less or until the shifted route choice ratio was smaller than 0.0005. These are rather strict conditions for termination. Yet for this example we are interested in all effects that occur in the course of many iterations.\nThe computation of the route choice ratios from the travel times was deliberately done rather simple. Between the pair with the longest and the shortest travel times ( and ) the following probability was shifted (obviously from the route with the longer to the route with the shorter travel time):\nwhere is a general sensitivity factor which was chosen to be in all computations and is a dynamic adaptation factor which usually was , but was decreased when the routes with the longest and the shortest travel time were identical in subsequent iterations and which was increased when they exchanged roles in subsequent iterations.\nFigures 22 and 23 show the results for two different initial distributions when only routes 1, 2, and 4 are utilized. When nearly all pedestrians are assigned to route 1 (i.e. the original route without intermediate destinations) in the first iteration the process terminates after iteration 19 with a weighted average travel time of 61.4 seconds. Beginning with equal distribution results in a travel time of 62.2 seconds after 15 iterations.\nFigures 24 and 25 show the corresponding results when only routes 4, 5, and 6 are utilized. When nearly all pedestrians are assigned to route 6 in the first iteration the process terminates after iteration 23 with a weighted average travel time of 62.0 seconds. Beginning with equal distribution results in a travel time of 61.2 seconds after 8 iterations.\nTable 1 summarizes the results of the cases when only three routes are utilized. It can be seen that under different conditions the results of the assignment process agree closely. This is a good sign for the quality of the algorithm that computes the intermediate destination areas: obviously it does not make a difference if pedestrians are sent via route 1 or 6 and respectively route 2 or 5. Figure 26 shows a comparison of the 1, 2, 4 and the 4, 5, 6 routes computations during the first iteration step when nearly all pedestrians are sent via route 1 respectively 6.\nTo get an estimation what the remaining differences for mean travel times in table 1 imply we have done four more computations with different initialization values for the random number generator of the pedestrian simulation for the “4, 5, 6, equal” case. The minimum average travel time of the overall ten computations was 61.2 s, the maximum 65.6 s and the average 63.7 s with a standard deviation of 1.3 s. This shows that the results given in table 1 are not more disperse than for one and the same case with only different random numbers.\n|initial||Route 1||Route 2||Route 4||Mean|\n|98% route 1||0.480||61.5||0.399||61.4||0.121||61.1||61.4|\n|Route 6||Route 5||Route 4||Mean|\n|98% Route 6||0.480||62.0||0.411||62.0||0.109||62.4||62.0|\nIf the iteration process is done utilizing all six routes, there is the additional difficulty that three routes (1, 3, and 6) and two routes (2 and 5) effectively contain identical navigation information as long as no phenomenons as shown in figures 26 occur. We have started the assignment process three times with different initial assignment: a) 95% on route 1 and 1% on each of the other routes; b) 34% resp. 33% on routes 1, 3, and 6 and 1% on each of the three remaining routes; c) equal distribution for all routes. Table 2 shows the results\n|init. distr.||R 1||R 2||R 3||R 4||R 5||R 6||Mean|\n|Travel Times [s]|\n|Route Choice Ratios||Final Iteration|\nReading table 2 carefully one sees that for initial conditions a) the maximum travel time difference is 0.6 and not 0.5 or smaller as required for termination of the process. This is not because there were no more changes to the route choice ratios. Instead the reason is that for initial conditions a) starting at about iteration 165 the assignment process entered a loop in which the termination condition was not fulfilled and thus the iteration process would continue forever. An effect of that phenomenon can be seen in figure 27. This is a problem of a) having strict termination conditions101010If the termination condition had been 1.0 seconds then termination had occurred after at most 21 iterations instead of something between 160 and infinity. and b) the assignment method which we deliberately chose to be simple for this initial work on the topic. To fix this one could do more than one simulation run per iteration and calculate rout choice ratios based on the averages of these runs. Another fix would be to elaborate the assignment method by for example considering not only the last iteration step when calculating new route choice ratios but also the second last or even more to the extreme of considering all iterations. Here we do not elaborate the assignment method, but simply chose to take that iteration step as result for initial conditions which a) which was as close as possible to the termination conditions.\nInteresting in table 2 is also that – while the sum of both is similar – the route choice ratios for routes 2 and 5 show large differences with respect to the initial conditions: for initial condition a) route 5 is used heavier, while for b) and c) route 2 is made more use of. This is different for routes 1, 3, and 6 for which the route choice ratios end up comparable if they are compared across all three initial conditions. Looking in figure 28 at the evolution of the route choice ratios in the course of iterations one can recognize another difference: while the sums of route choice ratios (1, 3, and 6 as well as 2 and 5) both quickly are very stable this is only the case for the individual routes 2 and 5 while the ratios for particularly the routes 3 and 6 keep changing for many iterations for at least two of the three initial conditions.\nThat there is no unique solution for the route choice ratios of routes 2 and 5 when the iteration process terminates does not indicate a problem. It rather confirms that in fact and as intended the intermediate destinations which were introduced have no artificial impact on local walking behavior. If they had, they would most probably also have an impact on travel times and if that was the case the travel times for routes 2 and 5 would not be identical. Only if they are identical there is no unique solution for their choice ratios. Put in different words: The intermediate destination which is part of route 5, but not of route 2 does neither de- nor increase the travel time of pedestrians on route 5 compared to pedestrians on route 2. If it would do so route 5 would always be a better or always be a worse choice than route 2. Than route 5 over the iterations would by and by gain or lose choice ratio compared to route 2 and this in all three cases of initial conditions. That this is not the case is a good indication that the intermediate destination area which is part of route 5 but not of route 2 is shaped such that it does not introduce artifacts to the movement of pedestrians. Strictly speaking we have this indication only for this one single intermediate destination area, but one can be confident that this is as well the case for all other intermediate destination areas.\nDoes this on the contrary imply that on routes 3 and 6 there is a delay due to locally different movement behavior introduced by the intermediate destinations? This cannot be the case, as route 6 for two of the initial conditions has a higher load than route 3, although it has an additional intermediate destination. The cause is rather the phenomenon shown in figure 26. Particularly the intermediate destination between the rectangle wall and the largest circular obstacle – which is part of routes 3 and 6, but not 1 – imposes reduced flexibility for all pedestrians who have to reach for it. This can increase the average travel time on routes 3 and 6 because of a few pedestrians who experience extended delay times instead of passing the largest obstacle to the left, effectively walking on route 2 or 5. Still, their travel time will be recorded as belonging to route 1. If a pedestrian at the very same spot had been assigned to walk route 3 or 6 instead of route 1, he or she had not turned around (proceeding effectively on route 2 or 5), but had waited long to walk the intended path. Thus in this high demand situation average travel times on routes 1, 3, and 6 are different. This is an indication that generally in a case with a number of routes with a commonality factor of 1 it might be more consequent to keep the route with most intermediate destinations and drop the others.\n7 Summary and Conclusions\nWe have introduced a method to generate the geometry of intermediate destinations and routes utilizing these in a two dimensional movement (walking) environment. Simulated pedestrians can follow the routes intermediate destination by intermediate destination from their origin to their destination. The shape of the intermediate destination is such that the pedestrians do not make turns when they reach an intermediate destination. This is because the intermediate destination is shaped along equi-distance lines of the next downstream (intermediate) destination. Thus someone following the animation of a simulation would not realize where intermediate destinations are located but just see pedestrians utilize many different instead of just the spatially shortest route.\nFor one example the resulting route set was applied in an assignment computation: a travel-time based user equilibrium was found by iterative simulation. The result was similar for different initial conditions. The example showed that the method works as intended.\nFuture work includes finding a method to eliminate the remaining routes with a commonality factor of 1 and the development of a more efficient assignment method specifically for pedestrian simulation. In the latter task one has to consider that here we do not start with a node-link network as it is the case in road traffic assignment methods where the available routes are typically computed with a classical shortest path search. Instead we already set out with a set of routes, but lack the node-link network. This is one of the reasons for another important fact to consider: the capacities on each route are unknown which in turn is one of the reasons why no differentiable volume-delay functions are available. From this follows that there is no other way to get information on travel times than to carry out the full simulation which is expensive in terms of computation time. Thus it can be concluded that assignment methods are best suited which first adapt the route choice ratios of all routes in the network and only than carry proceed with another iteration step, i.e. simulation run.\nAppendix A Definitions\nMicroscopic simulation is understood here as an algorithm in which the movement of individual entities is computed according to a given scheme. For our purpose this scheme is defined in some way such that the entities move locally similar as pedestrians move in reality (simulation of pedestrians). The interaction between entities is at least in parts computed individually (as opposed to interaction of an individual with a mean field).\nSimple polygon is understood in this contribution not only as the line segments defining the polygon, but also as the enclosed region.\nIt is assumed that areas in which pedestrians walk as well as obstacles which exclude access can be defined with a principally unlimited number of simple polygons. The total walking area is the unification of all polygons defining walking areas subtracting the unification of all polygons defining obstacles. In other words: if one or more polygons defining walking space and one or more polygons defining an obstacle overlap the overlap area cannot be accessed by pedestrians.\nIt is assumed that the space in which pedestrians move can be modeled two-dimensionally. This implies that it is neglected that in reality in a projection along the z-axis a pedestrian and an obstacle may overlap.\nStairwells and multiple floors could be connected piecewise in this way, i.e. the third spatial dimension can be approximated for all planning needs with a number of distinct sets of two-dimensional planes. However, higher floors and stairwells are not considered further in this paper.\nThe origin of a particular pedestrian is the coordinate at which he is set into the simulation at time . This coordinate can be one of a set which is as well a simple polygon called origin area. Different pedestrians will be set into the simulation at different times and at coordinates within the origin area.\nConcerning the assignment computation aspect in this paper: the origin time is an extrinsic parameter for all pedestrians, i.e. demand is inelastic.\nThe destination is as well modeled as a simple polygon called destination area. The actual destination of a particular pedestrian is a coordinate within the destination area. A pedestrian is considered to have arrived at his destination when he is for the first time (time ) located on a coordinate which is element of the destination area. This implies that each part of the destination area111111respectively each part of the edge of the destination area is of equal value for a pedestrian. Which coordinate of the destination area the pedestrian is heading for is not a property of the destination area.\nAn intermediate destination area is a simple polygon to which pedestrians are heading for before they are walking towards the destination area. Therefore intermediate destination areas have a very similar purpose as destination areas and they have the same effect on pedestrians except that pedestrians are not taken out of the simulation when they have arrived at a destination area. Instead they continue to walk to the next destination area or to their (final) destination area.\nA route is a sequence of simple polygons which begins with an origin area, then has an arbitrary number of intermediate destination areas and ends with a destination area. Contrary to trajectories routes are understood to be extrinsic parameters for the operational simulation model, i.e. routes are input data.\nTo be distinguished from a route has to be a trajectory. A trajectory of a pedestrian is defined as a curve in space which is parametrized with time. In a microscopic simulation which progresses in constant, discrete time steps – as is the case here – a trajectory of pedestrian is a set of coordinates with . This implies that a route – or better the set of all routes – is input data for the simulation, while trajectories are output data.\nFor completeness: a path is a trajectory stripped of its time aspect and relation to a specific pedestrian.\nRoute decisions are objects which hold two or more routes and a probability for each route that it is chosen by a pedestrian. When a pedestrian is set into the simulation a route decision is carried out for him. This means that among a defined set of routes which usually is different for each origin area one is chosen probabilistically and assigned to the pedestrian. Like routes route decisions are input data for the operational level of the simulation. The route decision probabilities are numbers which are external input data. The values are not affected by anything which happens within a simulation run, they are in principle fixed over time. However, there can be different time intervals in which the route decision probabilities have different values. Concerning the assignment computation aspect in this paper: if there is more than one time interval for the route decision probabilities, i.e. if the route decision probabilities are not constant throughout the simulation, the assignment is a dynamic assignment. As it is a micro-simulation the time intervals in principle can be arbitrarily small which is an advantage if demand varies on short time scales. However, for usage with an iterated assignment method the time intervals need to be sufficiently long to produce a meaningful statistics (average) of travel times. If this is not given one cannot expect convergence of the assignment process.\nAn OD matrix is the integrated representation of demand, routes, and route decisions. The lines of the matrix comprise of the origin areas, the columns of the destination areas. Each entry of the matrix contains the absolute demand volume that within a given time interval is meant to move from origin area to destination area.\n-  D. Helbing and P.

{"text": "EMF-Compare is a really cool framework to identify differences between EMF based models in no time. Together with two collegues I am currently writing an article to show the main facts and how the results could be used in a MDSD-approach. In our first step we created a class to trigger the Match- and DiffService to have a Diff-Model as a result. After having that, we wanted to use the generator-framework openArchitectureWare to generate a more readable report of the differences. For that reason we used the serialized diffmodel as input for the generator. After playing around with that, we saw that it is annoying to have two different steps. One for the creating the diffmodel and one for generating the report.\nThe first thing you might think of when you have this use case is creating an ant-script. In our case we wanted to integrate the creating of the diffmodel in the generator-workflow. For that reason we implemented an custom workflow-component.\nI was wondering how fast an easy it could be to do that. You only have to extend the Class AbstractEmfWorkflowComponent and fill the method invoke(WorkflowContext ctx, ProgressMonitor monitor,Issues issues). By doing that you could reuse the already done configurations from the workflow. For example the loading of the necessary metamodels and so on .\nIn our special case we wanted to have special parameters. To do that you only have to have getters and setters for that stuff. After implementing the method checkConfiguration(Issues issues) it was possible to check it the necessary parameters have been passed to the Component.\nThe next thing that was really cool is that we do not have to persist the diffmodel any more. We only have to pass the result to the modelslot of the Workflow. By doing that the diffmodel could be used by following Components within the Workflow.\nAs you can see from the screenshot of the Workflow the new Component is now well integrated and no extra step is necessary.", "label": "Yes"}

{"text": "As an architect, photographer, composer, and member of the giant Lebanese rock band Mashrou’ Leila, Carl Gerges can be deemed a true multi-hyphenate. His latest venture tests the waters of high fashion: this past April, Gerges collaborated with Bottega Veneta in Dubai for a three-night event, which featured a live performance. He was tasked with designing a space that drew upon both Middle Eastern design and the iconic Italian brand’s identity. Born in Beirut, Gerges tells me that he always grew up with an affinity for building things, recalling the toy models he used to tinker with when he was young. In 2008, he co-founded his band while studying architecture at the American University of Beirut. He officially launched his studio, Carl Gerges Architects, in March 2020.\nFRONTRUNNER speaks Gerges about his most recent project with Bottega Veneta and beyond.\nYou have so many different creative processes. How do you keep your architectural work separate from your other creative practices, like music and photography? How do you connect them, especially during your recent collaboration with Bottega Veneta?\nI work in an industry where so many different worlds intersect. Even if I wasn’t fully conscious of it, music, art and architecture have always been inextricably intertwined during my life. Rather than trying to separate these disciplines, when I created Carl Gerges Architects, I naturally approached my projects in a theatrical way, as if they were a series of moments rather than a series of spaces. My collaboration with Bottega Veneta was the perfect way of linking these passions as a means to push forward a community of artists and thinkers in an architectural intervention. Based around the Arabic term majlis (symbolising gathering and togetherness) the space I designed has elements from a traditional conversation pit, interwoven with modern-day conversations and settings.\nAnd you obviously did that with the green thematics, which is heavily associated with the brand’s contemporary image.\nExactly, the idea was to integrate a green square – inside the cubic venue – emphasising the square within a square structure and creating a subtle arabesque pattern.\nHow else did you incorporate the brand identity? I know that Daniel Lee just left and the creative direction got switched over to Mattieu Blazy, so what was it like working with Bottega during this turnover?\nI worked very closely with the Bottega Veneta team and with the head of worldwide events and partnerships, Alexandre-Camille Removille. It was a smooth process that felt very natural. Inspired by the brand’s fabric that is both ancestral and innovative, my intervention presented a theatrical space that paid tribute to Italian architecture whilst reflecting the hospitality, warmth and colloquialism of a local gathering. The seats were made out of this beautiful Bottega Veneta fabric. It was important to add this refined layer where people would be seated; it added texture and delicacy to the space. The speaker towers around the conversation pit were also custom designed.\nThey’re massive too!\nYes, they were massive! They were a crucial element of the scenography, not only because of the amazing sound quality that they produced, but also because of their monumentality – they balanced the empty green cube. They were also a hint at the old Hi-Fi systems that we found in the 60’s homes.\nApart from the design aspects, the space itself acted as a meeting place for a lot of different talent. Did you have a favorite act (if you’re allowed to say whether you did)?\nAs the pop-up was happening during the holy month of Ramadan, we hosted poets, artists and intellectuals from eclectic backgrounds: rooted in both traditional and contemporary disciplines. From the Yemeni-East African visual storyteller Shaima Al-Tamimi (who screened her short film Don’t Get Too Comfortable, a letter to her late grandfather contemplating their pasts and future as Arabs in the diaspora), to Asma Al-Badawi (a Sudanese-British spoken word poet, known for advocating for inclusivity and diversity in women’s sports), to Mustafa the Poet (a Canadian poet/songwriter whose genre-defying work surrounds his life, loss, and identity as a Black Muslim artist) and finally Solemann Haddad (a Syrian Dubai-based chef who curated the culinary experience for our guests.) I didn’t really have a favorite performance. The event was over the course of three days. The first night was intimate, we had a controlled amount of guests, the artists were getting comfortable, the conversations were very personal. For the third night, we decided to open up the space to a hundred people, the dynamic really changed, It was a completely different experience. When you have more people occupying different areas of a space the emotions in the space change and this is where it gets interesting.\nWith all of that said, was it a gratifying experience? Do you recommend that Bottega continues to do this in the future?\nIt was very gratifying that our collaboration got the attention it deserved, we got a lot of press and a lot of exposure. It was quite a unique event for the region because it was not centered around showcasing products or merchandise. Instead, it focused on real people and real stories. We received a lot of positive feedback, Bottega even decided to take this concept further and travel with it to cities such as Tokyo, São Paulo, Shanghai.\nYou’re the designer to helm the travelling project, so congratulations! Apart from Bottega, what kinds of things, architecture and otherwise, do you want to do in the future?\nThank you! My dream is to someday design cultural or wellness projects. In contrast to residential and commercial projects, these projects have something transcendent about them. The quality of these spaces, their proportions, their form and function, allow people to access states of being or understanding that are spiritual – feelings such as calmness, awe, wonder, enlightenment, wellbeing, wholeness, joy.", "label": "Yes"}
{"text": "Whole Home Remodel for Growing Family\nPacific Beach, California\nIn this budget-conscious remodel for a family with young children we used an open format and creative planning to maximize interior space, while keeping house footprint small to preserve a large back yard. On the exterior, we kept 50% of walls and the single-story structure in keeping with Coastal Commission requirements.\nBay windows in the living room, new master suite and new bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms add more square footage by extending over the setback distance.\nThese windows double as reading nooks and gave us space to add shelves and storage beneath. In the children’s bedrooms we also added nooks above the closets, accessible by ladder, to showcase books, collections or toys.\nIn the kitchen, ceiling beams define the space and add visual interest and an L-shaped island creates the heart of the home. The island also serves as the back of a built-in banquette – with drawers for storage – and on the other end, offers space for barstools so friends and family can gather.", "label": "Yes"}

{"text": "A team of researchers have taken inspiration from water strider insects to develop a robot capable of leaping from the surface of water.\nThe team included researchers from the Seoul National University, Korea (SNU), the Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences, and Harvard's Wyss Institute for Biologically Inspired Engineering.\nWater striders are small, semi-aquatic insects which jump off the water's surface to move themselves around. Jumping on water is a complex maneuver. However, the water striders easily float along the water's surface and use their legs to produce a sufficient amount of upward thrust to become airborne.\nAlthough the idea of walking on water may sound strange, many tiny creatures use the surface tension of water to move from one place to another. Now, inspired by this natural water-based locomotion, the researchers have designed an innovative robotic insect capable of leaping from the water's surface. This latest development has shed new light on the natural mechanisms that enable these insects to leap from both fluid water and stiff ground with equal amount of height and power. The study results have appeared in the July issue of Science.\nJumping on Water: Robotic Water Strider\nHarvard University | Youtube.com\n\"Water's surface needs to be pressed at the right speed for an adequate amount of time, up to a certain depth, in order to achieve jumping,\" stated Kyu Jin Cho, the study's co-senior author and Associate Professor in the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering and Director of the Biorobotics Laboratory at Seoul National University. \"The water strider is capable of doing all these things flawlessly.\"\nWater striders have legs with slightly curved tips, and use a rotational leg movement to jump off from the water's surface. This was discovered by Ho-Young Kim, the co-senior author, Director of SNU's Micro Fluid Mechanics Lab, and Professor in SNU's Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering. Kim is also a former Wyss Institute Visiting Scholar who worked with Eunjin Yang, the study's co-first author and a graduate researcher at SNU's Micro Fluid Mechanics lab.\nHe collected these small insects and took videos of them to study the mechanism that allows these insects to float and jump off the water's surface. Following much trial and error, and by utilizing robotic models to test their theories, the researchers were finally able to interpret the mechanics of these semi-aquatic insects.\n\"If you apply as much force as quickly as possible on water, the limbs will break through the surface and you won't get anywhere,\" said Robert Wood, Ph.D., who is a co-author on the study, a Wyss Institute Core Faculty member, the Charles River Professor of Engineering and Applied Sciences at the Harvard Paulson School, and founder of the Harvard Microrobotics Lab.\nBy comparing their robotic insect prototypes to the studied water striders, the team found that the most suitable way to jump off from the water’s surface was to ensure that contact is maintained between the leg and water for as long as possible during the jump motion. The new robotic insect mimics these mechanics and can apply as much as 16 times its body weight on the surface of the water without falling beneath the surface.\n\"Using its legs to push down on water, the natural water strider exerts the maximum amount of force just below the threshold that would break the water's surface,\" stated Je-Sung Koh, Ph.D., the study's co-first author, who is now a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Harvard Paulson School and the Wyss Institute. A large number of organisms, including the water strider, can easily perform unique styles of movements such as floating, flying, jumping or swimming on water despite lacking any complicated cognitive skills.\nThis is due to their natural morphology. It is a form of embodied or physical intelligence, and we can learn from this kind of physical intelligence to build robots that are similarly capable of performing extreme maneuvers without highly-complex controls or artificial intelligence.\nCho, co-senior author\nThe researchers developed the robotic insect by leveraging a torque reversal catapult mechanism, which was inspired by the manner in which a flea moves and jumps, thus enabling this type of unique locomotion without using any intelligent control. Wood, Cho, and Koh first reported this locomotion in 2013 at the International Conference on Intelligent Robots and Systems.\nTo make the robotic insect to jump off the water’s surface, the catapult mechanism uses a burst of momentum combined with restricted upward thrust to push the robot from the water without actually breaking the water's surface. An automatic triggering mechanism was developed from actuators and composite materials, and this was used to trigger the lightweight catapult.\nIn order to create the body of the robotic insect, a technique called pop-up manufacturing was utilized to produce folded composite structures, which self-assemble in a similar way to the foldable parts that pop up in 3D books. This creative layering and folding process was developed by engineers at the Wyss Institute and the Harvard Paulson School, and helps in the rapid development of microrobots as well as a wide range of electromechanical instruments.\n\"The resulting robotic insects can achieve the same momentum and height that could be generated during a rapid jump on firm ground - but instead can do so on water - by spreading out the jumping thrust over a longer amount of time and in sustaining prolonged contact with the water's surface,\" said Wood.\n\"This international collaboration of biologists and roboticists has not only looked into nature to develop a novel, semi-aquatic bioinspired robot that performs an new extreme form of robotic locomotion, but has also provided us with new insights on the natural mechanics at play in water striders,\" said Wyss Institute Founding Director Donald Ingber, M.D., Ph.D.", "label": "Yes"}

{"text": "Looking to start aquascaping the nano tank, but not sure where to begin? You’re in the right place. In this guide, we’ll show you the ropes of creating a vibrant and proportional nano-tank aquascape that is pleasing to the eye and suitable for its inhabitants. Discover the fine art of selecting compatible plants and creatures, and learn how to maintain the delicate balance within your tiny ecosystem. Get ready to embark on a journey that makes a big impact in a small space.\nNano tanks, typically less than 10 gallons, offer a compact and affordable way to explore aquascaping without the space or maintenance requirements of larger aquariums.\nDesigning a nano tank involves creatively using rocks, driftwood, and carefully selected plants to create a beautiful, balanced miniature ecosystem that’s both pleasing to the eye and functional for its inhabitants.\nFor a thriving nano tank, choose appropriate equipment and occupants based on their size and needs, and maintain the tank with regular water changes, nutrient management, algae control, and plant pruning.\nExploring Nano Tanks: Small but Mighty\nThe world of nano tanks is an intriguing one, a petite reminder of the vast aquatic wilderness. A nano tank is essentially a small tank, or a nano aquarium, usually holding less than 10 gallons of water. The smallness of these nano aquariums is their biggest charm, enabling you to create a pocket-sized slice of nature. They are perfect for planted tanks, creating a verdant, tranquil oasis that is both visually stunning and perfect for smaller aquatic creatures. In contrast to a large tank, small tanks like nano tanks require less space and maintenance, making them an ideal choice for many hobbyists.\nSelecting a nano tank extends beyond its compact size; it also involves delving into the craft of small-scale aquascaping. These tanks, affordable and manageable, present a distinctive challenge for crafting petite aquatic landscapes. Their compactness makes them an ideal choice for those with space constraints, providing an opportunity to enjoy the invigorating pastime of aquascaping without the concern of bulky equipment or spatial limitations.\nWhat is a Nano Tank?\nWhat defines a nano tank? These miniature aquariums, generally holding less than 10 gallons, serve as the perfect setup for a planted aquarium. Their diminutive size belies the infinite possibilities they offer to aquascaping fans. Ideal for those with spatial limitations or those keen to begin on a smaller scale, nano tanks truly embody the essence of ‘less is more’. Despite their size, they brim with potential and aesthetic allure.\nThe beauty of a nano tank lies in its versatility. It can house a range of aquatic flora and fauna, creating a microcosm of an aquatic ecosystem. The small scale allows you to experiment with different aquascaping styles and designs without the commitment of a larger tank. Whether you’re a seasoned aquascaper or a beginner, a nano tank is a perfect canvas to unleash your creativity.\nWhy Choose a Nano Tank?\nOpting for a nano tank as part of your aquascaping adventure boasts plenty of benefits. A key advantage lies in their affordability. Initial setup and ongoing maintenance costs of nano tanks are budget-friendly. Additionally, they use less water and electricity, positioning them as an environmentally friendly and economically wise selection for aquascaping devotees.\nNot to mention, nano tanks are an excellent option for beginners. Their smaller size makes them less daunting to set up and maintain. It’s the perfect platform for you to learn and understand the basics of aquascaping before venturing into larger tanks. Plus, the small size of nano tanks makes them fit into any living space, allowing you to bring a piece of nature into your home, no matter how limited your space might be.\nDesigning Your Nano Tank Aquascape\nDesigning your nano tank aquascape is where the fun begins. It’s like painting a picture, but instead of paint, your palette includes rocks, driftwood, and a variety of nano aquarium plants. The goal is to create a visually appealing design that perfectly mimics the beauty of natural aquatic environments. The design of your nano tank will not only impact its aesthetic appeal but also its functionality.\nAs you design your nano tank aquascape, bear in mind that this is your canvas. You possess the liberty to craft any scene - be it a verdant jungle, a peaceful meadow, or a rugged landscape. The design ought to harmoniously incorporate hardscape elements, plants, and aquatic life, forging an environment that captivates visually and caters to your aquatic dwellers.\nHardscape elements constitute the foundation of your aquascape design. They encompass rocks, driftwood, and other non-living materials that contribute structure and depth to your aquascape. Commonly selected elements for nano tank aquascaping are Dragon stone, Seiryu stone, and River stones for rocks, alongside Manzanita wood, Malaysian driftwood, and Mopani wood for driftwood. These hardscape elements elevate the aesthetic charm of your nano tank and also serve as hiding and spawning places for your aquatic residents.\nWhen placing your hardscape elements, aim to mimic natural environments. Rocks and driftwood can be arranged to replicate mountain ranges, riverbeds, or forest floors. Remember to create a sense of depth and balance in your layout. The hardscape should guide the viewer’s eye through the tank and create focal points that draw attention.\nAfter arranging your hardscape, it’s time to prepare them for the tank. For driftwood, this means soaking it and changing the water when it gets dark from tannins.\nChoosing the best plants for nano tank is vital. You need plants that are fitting to the tank’s diminutive size and won’t clutter the aquarium. Optimal choices for nano tanks are diminutive, slow-growing plants such as:\nHemianthus callitrichoides ‘Cuba’\nEleocharis sp. ‘Mini’\nThese plants not only snugly fit within the limited space of a nano tank but also enhance its aesthetic allure in a planted tank setting.\nWhile choosing your aquatic plants, also consider their care requirements. For instance, Hemianthus species require regular fertilization and some amount of CO2 for optimal growth. The goal is to create a verdant, lush environment that is both visually pleasing and capable of supporting the health and wellbeing of your aquatic inhabitants.\nBalancing Aesthetics and Functionality\nBalancing aesthetics and functionality is a crucial aspect of nano planted aquarium. While the visual appeal of your nano tank is important, it should not come at the expense of its functionality. The key is to create a design that looks good and is also practical for the inhabitants of your tank.\nTo achieve this balance, consider the placement of your plants and hardscape elements. They should be placed in a way that facilitates easy movement for your fish and shrimp, provides hiding spots, and does not hinder the filtration or heating systems. Also, avoid using large leaf plants as they can throw off the balance and depth of the nano tank.\nThere are no strict rules for designing your nano tank, so feel free to be creative and experiment with different ideas. Whether it’s minimalistic or densely planted, the choice is yours. It’s all about experimenting and finding what works best for you and your aquatic buddies.\nStocking Your Nano Tank: Choosing the Right Inhabitants\nUpon setting up your nano tank, the next step involves selecting its inhabitants. This decision is as critical as the tank’s design as appropriate inhabitants breathe life and dynamism into your tank, boosting its overall charm. When picking out inhabitants for your nano tank, take into account their size, mutual compatibility, and care needs.\nThe ideal inhabitants for nano tanks, perfect for those who love aquarium fish, are:\nSmall fish species like ember tetras and ruby red pencilfish\nInvertebrates like red, yellow, orange, and blue varieties of shrimp\nSnails, which make for great tank inhabitants due to their algae-eating abilities and low bioload.\nBest Fish for Nano Tanks\nWhen it comes to fish for your nano tank, size does matter. Small, hardy fish species are the best choices. They are easy to care for and can comfortably live in the limited space of a nano tank. Endler’s livebearers, for instance, are a perfect match for nano tanks. They are small, hardy, and come in vibrant colors, adding a lively vibe to your nano tank.\nAnother great species for nano tanks is the Pygmy Corydoras. These little guys are not only small in size but also excellent cleaners. They feed on food and bloodworms that end up at the bottom of the tank, helping to keep your tank clean. Remember, when choosing fish for your nano tank, consider their size, temperament, and care requirements to ensure they live a happy and healthy life in their new home.\nShrimp and Snails: The Unsung Heroes\nShrimp and snails may be small, but they play a big role in maintaining the health and cleanliness of your nano tank. These little critters are efficient algae eaters, helping to keep algae growth in check. Shrimp varieties like Cherry Shrimp, Neocaridina Shrimp, and bee shrimp are great choices for nano tanks. They are small, good at keeping algae at bay, and come in various colors, adding a splash of color and liveliness to your tank.\nSnails too, make for great tank inhabitants. Snail varieties like:\nMalaysian Trumpet Snail (MTS)\nare great choices for nano tanks. They are excellent algae eaters and work well in small aquariums. Remember, while shrimp and snails add to your tank’s biodiversity, they also contribute to its bioload. So, ensure you do not overcrowd your tank and maintain a balance.\nEssential Equipment for Nano Tanks\nTo ensure your nano tank flourishes, certain vital equipment is required. This encompasses an apt filter, heater, and lighting system. These apparatuses help uphold optimal conditions within your tank, guaranteeing the health and wellbeing of its occupants.\nWhile choosing your equipment, keep in mind the size of your tank and its inhabitants. For instance, most filters are made for larger tanks and may not be suitable for a small nano tank. You would need to choose a filter that is the right size and efficient enough to maintain water quality in the tank.\nNano Tank Filtration\nFiltration is crucial in a nano tank. Given their small size, water conditions in nano tanks can change more easily compared to larger tanks. Therefore, an efficient, reliable filter is key to maintaining water quality. A good filter should be simple, the right size for the tank, and give off enough heat, like 5 watts per gallon of water. The Cobalt Aquatics 25 watt heater, for instance, is known for its accurate temperature control, making it an excellent choice for nano tanks.\nWhen choosing a filter, it’s not just about efficiency, but also aesthetics. After all, a bulky filter can take away from the visual appeal of your nano tank. Therefore, choose a filter that blends seamlessly with your aquascape design and doesn’t obstruct the view of your tank.\nHeating Solutions for Nano Tanks\nJust like filtration, heating is also an essential aspect of nano tank maintenance. Given their small size, nano tanks are more susceptible to temperature fluctuations. Therefore, a reliable, accurate heater is essential to maintain the ideal temperature within your tank.\nWhen choosing a heater for your nano tank, consider the following factors:\nAccuracy: The heater should accurately maintain the desired temperature.\nReliability: It should be reliable enough to prevent any sudden temperature changes.\nSize: The heater should be small enough to fit comfortably within your nano tank without taking up too much space or disrupting the aesthetics of your small tank aquascape.\nLighting for Plant Growth and Aesthetics\nLighting is another crucial aspect of nano tank maintenance. The right lighting not only enhances the visual appeal of your tank but also supports plant growth. When choosing lighting for your nano tank, consider the needs of your plants. Different plants have different lighting requirements. Therefore, the lighting system you choose should cater to the needs of the plants in your tank.\nApart from plant growth, lighting also plays a key role in enhancing the aesthetics of your nano tank. It brings out the colors of your fish and plants, making everything pop, and adds depth to your aquascape, making it look more vibrant and lively.\nMaintaining Your Nano Tank: Tips and Tricks\nOnce your nano tank is established and filled with inhabitants, you face the true challenge - its upkeep! Regardless of their small stature, nano tanks necessitate frequent maintenance to assure the health of the inhabitants and maintain the tank’s appearance. From routine water changes to nutrient control and plant care, maintaining a nano tank demands some effort, but the outcome is undoubtedly rewarding!\nMaintenance activities for nano tanks include:\nRegular water changes\nMonitoring and managing nutrient levels\nControlling and preventing algae growth\nRegular pruning and care of plants\nBy keeping on top of these tasks, you can ensure your nano tank remains a healthy and vibrant ecosystem for its inhabitants.\nWater Changes and Nutrient Management\nWater changes and nutrient management are fundamental aspects of nano tank maintenance. Regular water changes are crucial to maintaining water quality and preventing the buildup of toxins and waste. Aim to change the water in your nano tank every week to two weeks, depending on the tank. Remember to also keep an eye on nutrient levels. Too many nutrients can lead to problems like algal blooms.\nIn addition to water changes, managing the nutrient levels in your nano tank is also crucial. A healthy nano tank requires nutrients like:\nKeeping a balanced nutrient profile in your tank can help keep algae in check and promote healthy plant growth.\nAlgae Control and Prevention\nAlgae is a common issue in nano tanks. If left unchecked, it can quickly overtake your tank, causing a host of problems. Therefore, controlling and preventing algae growth is essential. Regular water changes, proper lighting, and nutrient management can all help keep algae growth in check.\nIn addition to these measures, certain tank inhabitants can also help control algae. Shrimp and snails, for instance, are effective algae eaters. By including a few of these in your tank, you can keep algae levels under control and maintain a healthy, clean environment for your other tank inhabitants.\nPlant Maintenance and Pruning\nProper care and maintenance of the plants in your nano tank are crucial. Regular pruning helps keep your plants healthy and your tank looking neat and tidy. You should trim your plants around three to five weeks after setting up your tank, and then whenever the plants start getting unruly.\nIn addition to pruning, regular fertilization is also important. Plants in a nano tank require micronutrients and macronutrients for healthy growth. Regularly dosing liquid fertilizer can help keep your plants thriving. Also, remember to remove any dead or decaying leaves as these can affect water quality.\nIn conclusion, nano tanks offer a world of possibilities for aquascaping enthusiasts. Despite their small size, they provide a platform to create stunning aquascapes that are both visually appealing and functional. From choosing the right tank and designing the aquascape to selecting the perfect inhabitants and maintaining the tank, each step of the process is an opportunity to express your creativity and create a slice of nature right in your own home.

{"text": "This page is part of a three-piece project consisting of a basic skirt and three different bodices.

{"text": "Home / Dining Furniture / amish dining room furniture that you must have / Farmhouse Table With Breadboard Extensions Farmhouse Kitchen Table Sets Amish Dining Table With Self Storing Leaves Solid Wood Dining Room Furniture Manufacturers Farmhouse Dining Room Table\nFabienne Dining Furniture February 27th, 2018 - 11:02:55\nSolid wood dining room furniture is the best you can get due to its strength, rigidity and hard-wearing properties. However, there are many different woods than can be used, and many different designs, so here is some advice on choosing the furniture for your dining room that best suits your needs, with specific reference to your tables and chairs. You must first decide on how many you want to seat at your table, bearing in mind that some tables can be extended to seat more for special occasions. This question might be answered by the size of your dining room, or perhaps yours is large enough for any size of dining table. Most choose from six to eight: two to four chairs each side and one at each end. However, you can choose larger if you prefer.\nChoosing the best dining furniture for your home is a wonderful investment that requires creativity, patience, and resourcefulness. After all, a dining room can be used for a variety of functions, and can be used by people other than the family members living inside the house. Therefore, it is imperative that you are able to choose dining room furniture that will stand the test of time, and will fit into any occasion or event that you choose to hold in it - whether it`s a dinner party, a business meeting, or an intimate family dinner.\nAs you can see, shopping for dining room furniture is really a serious undertaking that you have to really think through before investing in. Never forget these elements when you go shopping, and never go impulse shopping. Always keep your priorities and must-haves in mind, and you will definitely get yourself quality dining room furniture. Never settle for anything less than good quality - you don`t have to get yourself the most ostentatious dining room furniture out there; you just need to get one that is most suited to your lifestyle and sets a positive mood at the dining room table, especially during mealtimes.\nMost suppliers of solid wood dining room furniture offer you the chairs to match, although there is no reason why you cannot purchase your table from one maker and your dining room chairs from another. If you get the wood the same, then the maker is immaterial, and it is not uncommon for people to find a table with which they instantly fall in love, but don`t like the chairs that come with it. In such cases, keep looking until you find chairs that you are happy with: it`s worth taking your time when you are spending money on furniture for your dining room. You will live with it for a long time.", "label": "Yes"}

From the beginning of the production of the pipe, we have conducted a special study in consideration of every link in the installation of the railing. This is a problem that we pay special attention to, to ensure the production of qualified quality products, the bad factors caused by packaging, the collisions caused by short-distance transportation, and the problems arising from shipping, etc., comprehensively considering the combination of product quality and cost, and finally got the most Good packaging method:\nEach tube is placed inside a plastic sleeve.\nThe plastic sleeve is the whole production, not the disjointed splicing. The tube is well protected in the plastic sleeve and there are no unnecessary scratches, so that you get the perfect ideal tube.\nThe package can withstand all kinds of bad weather such as rain, frost, snow and heat.\nOn rainy days, the tube can be hidden, no further packaging is required, the package is taken out of the package, dried with a cloth and dried properly, and it can be processed immediately.\nUnlimited storage in dust, dirt, and oil felt environments. Although the exterior of the package is dirty, when you peel off the cartridge, it will shine like a new one without wiping the surface. Although it is placed for a while, it does not affect the easy making of money.\nEach tube is packaged in color coded\nThe black mark means the \"EPAI\" tube and the anti-counterfeit laser stamp is attached to the tube.

{"text": "I made a replica of my wife's Kitchen Aid stand mixer for her, and a copy of my cordless drill for myself.\nI began this project with just a few bits of scrap wood, and after many hours of work, these are what I ended up with. I hope you like them. Thanks for taking the time to check this out.\nStep 1: Shaping the Drill\nI drew out the shape of a drill on some scrap material, and used a jigsaw to cut it out. I used my rotary tool to further carve down the shape. Sanding attachments were used to smooth out the shape, and it was finish sanded by hand.\nClamps were used to carefully hold down the item to my table as I worked on it.\nStep 2: Painting Base Coat on Drill\nLight coats of yellow spray paint were added. The key to a good finish is to spray on many light coats rather than a couple of heavy ones.\nStep 3: Mixer Top Section\nWood filler was used to fill in cracks, and a small dowel was added to complete the front detail of the mixer top.\nStep 4: Mixer Stand\nI used my rotary tool to carve down the shape and sand it smooth. Wood filler was used to fill in any gaps and cracks, and the piece was finish sanded with 220 by hand.\nStep 5: Mixing Bowl\nStep 6: Connect Mixer Top to Stand\nStep 7: Painting Base Coat on Mixer\nStep 8: Drill Details\nA 1/16\" bit was glued into the drill using super glue.\nStep 9: Mixer Details\nThe knobs are the ends of sewing pins, painted and glued into pre-drilled holes.\nThe bowl was glued to the mixer base with wood glue after the paint was scraped away from the areas to be glued. A small piece of dowel was painted and added to represent the mixing attachment.\nAfter all the paint and sharpie marks were thoroughly dry, both the drill and the mixer were sprayed with a few coats of crystal clear acrylic gloss spray to finish them off.\nStep 10: Finishing Touches\nThat's it.

{"text": "Dan Mahoney & Saumon Oboudiyat\nDS x YN is inspired from the unique spatial configuration of the Jane Addams Place recreation space, yet responds to a deeper discussion of shelter, privacy, and spatial control within a shelter environment. Our product directly affects the day to day lives of guests and staff members by offering a system of units that can expand the possibilities of recreational, educational, personal, and social functions.\nIn the context of the Jane Addams Place, DS x YN will provide opportunities of imagination, leadership, and cognitive development by encouraging users to engage and customize design spaces for various activities. Staff members may engage with guests through tutoring outdoors, creating obstacle courses for the children to play around, and offer shaded space for rest during warmer months to name just a few possibilities.\nAlthough we have provided graphic proposals for its use, we encourage children, teens, and adults alike to explore the hidden configurations latent within the design to best satisfy individual and group needs. We are excited to offer chalkboard writing capabilities on the palette systems. This gives users a sense of empowerment, voice, collaboration, and transparency in their daily interaction with the product and each other.\nBeyond the Jane Addams Place, our product can serve all shelter environments by becoming flexible privacy spaces for shelter environments in both interior and exterior environments, particularly in over-flow rooms where customization of privacy plays a crucial role in the comfort of families looking for refuge.\nDS x YN is a trauma-informed approach which attempts to proactively move its user(s) through the positive events, experiences, and effects that one may experience in overcoming trauma. Our initial approach to the design was to establish a product that would manifest the six key principles, through the process of interaction.\nIn the event of encountering the DS x YN within the shelter, for first time and accustomed users, we hope the spaces can foster a community of trust and transparency where feelings and ideas can be safely shared. The assemblage of the product reinforces the value of collaboration and mutuality by expediting the speed and effort it would take for a group to assemble the product versus an individual. Naturally, collaboration brings light to cultural, historical, and gender differences. For example, a group of children from different backgrounds may learn how to overlook preconceived stereotypes through collaboration.\nThe desired effect of our product is to empower individuals to develop leadership, safety, judgment and cognitive skills. Moreover, peer support can be nurtured by means of communication and emotional management skills in how groups interact in and around the formed spaces. Fundamental social skills in children, such as sharing and compromising, can be addressed in how a group may choose to arrange components of the product.\nDS x YN is an original concept, no material citations applicable.\nThe flexibility of our product allows for private spaces or collaborative arrangements to form at the control of any user(s). This gives guests the option to balance their individual needs within a communal space with those of the larger community. In a larger scope, the DS x YN proposes a paradigm shift in what shelter environments could be, where spaces are formed in real-time around the needs of the guests as opposed to guests being fostered in inelastic spatial arrangements that are often constricting or too “open” for certain activities.\nThe very impact of the product is based around this idea, where guests (especially children) can control how their environment is shaped and what activities are carried forward. In a recreational setting, we envision children creating new activities with our product: obstacle courses, tracks for small car races, outdoor classrooms and even event spaces to host social activities. Ultimately, we hope the DS x YN becomes the agent of control that shelter guests desire, in how they carry out their day to day effort to overcome trauma.\nThe trauma-informed standards which our product strives to maintain include stress reduction and the creation of predictable (user-controlled) environments, which we understand to be essential to the remediation of trauma-induced patients. We believe this product revolutionizes the shelter environment in serving as perhaps the most malleable and user-driven physical space within the Jane Addams Place, and potentially, in shelters of other communities. Immediately, the product responds to the common denominator and perhaps the most fundamental desire of humans: creating spaces we can call our own.\nOur product requires the manufacturing of each pallet unit and the canvas roofing component. We estimate the assemblage would take up to 5 days for each pair of pallets and the canvas “roof”, assuming two people are working on the fabrication of the product. Add-on component construction and multiple units would increase the fabrication period.\nDo the production costs decrease as the number of units produced increases?:\nSpace and Staffing Required:\nNo staffing required, the design is intuitive and multi-purpose. The product is designed with the outdoor recreation space in mind, yet is adaptable to other interior and exterior shelter applications. The product also requires minimal storage space.\nDoes your product require training of shelter staff to use appropriately?:\nAs the designers, we are focused on ensuring the quality of each component can withstand exterior weather conditions if left uncovered in the elements and is easy to clean. The only funding needed to sustain the product in the future will be if any parts of the product break through wear-and-tear. If well maintained, the product should require no further funding. Any parts that require replacement can be easily acquired and fixed.\nOur product would be quite well-suited for other shelter environments. As previously touched upon, the fundamental components of our product offer flexibility in how shelters can arrange spaces, programs, and privacy.\nThe canvas “roof” component protects children against certain weather conditions while playing outdoors. In an interior application, the DS x YN can create private spaces for mothers, quiet spaces for reading or learning, or serve as partitions for sleeping arrangements.\nThe impact of our product could be measured through a number of ways. In observing the change in character of children, staff members can observe how students will assume responsibility and control over spaces they choose to engage with. By creating a space that allows children be active and social amongst each other, mothers may find opportunity to socialize with one another, and continue their path towards overcoming trauma.\nDepending on the levels of success with the product, units can be manufactured and customized to create a large array of arrangement options to cater the needs of other larger or smaller shelters. We envision shelving and/or seating units becoming a potential add-on element in future iterations of the design.", "label": "Yes"}

There are certain elementary things to be considered before chalking a plan for your patio; if you have an existing patio and you want some improvisation you must focus on the present view of the patio, the weather and the point where the sun hits during summer and winter. In such cases, it’s ideal to be creative in improvising the existing designs to make best use of the view and then make some possible changes to it.\nIsotta Milani Fireplace, 2018-02-10 00:57:52. For instance, if you have an older home with a traditional fireplace, then a mantel made from natural wood or stone would be best suited to complement the fireplace. For a more contemporary home, a sleeker wood or laminate may best offset the beauty of the fireplace and make the type of statement befitting of your home.

When a homeowner purchases a home and wishes to change the mantel, there are a number of ways in which to go about it.\nLodovica Padovano Fireplace, 2018-02-10 00:49:56. These electrical heating appliances perform well while functioning in the correct parameter. Therefore you should always educate yourself and make sure to consider the measurements concerned with installation and use.

The important thing to remember when refacing a fireplace is to understand your local code. Combustible materials such as wood mantels and paneling must be kept a certain distance from the firebox (generally 6 inches or more). The building code also limits how far these materials project from the face of the fireplace, how large the hearth extension must be, and so on. Codes vary around the country - it is important to evaluate your project relative to the codes enforced in your area.\nAny content, trademark/s, or other material that might be found on this site that is not this site property remains the copyright of its respective owner/s.

{"text": "The ‘Spirit of Innovation’ officially became the world’s fastest all-electric aircraft in January this year, when speeds of 387.4mph reached during test flights in November 2021 were officially verified by the Federation Aeronautique Internationale – breaking three separate world speed records.\nThis achievement was the result of a long-term partnership between Rolls-Royce, YASA and Electroflight – a British aviation energy storage specialist and Amorim Cork Composites to develop a highly fire-proof light-weight material for the battery casing using a cork lining. This unique material, now patented, has the added benefit of being made from natural sustainable materials – a vital consideration given the overall objective of the ACCEL project: to accelerate aviation on the path to decarbonisation.\nTo see a film of Spirit of Innovation in flight see: https://youtu.be/kd-RDX1IjuM\nElectroflight designed the entire powertrain and integrated battery system for the Spirit of Innovation, using three YASA 750 R axial-flux electric motors and more than 6,000 Murata VTC6 18650 NCA cylindrical cells. They needed to find a material for the battery case that would not only be structurally robust, but would also be light and extremely fire resistant.\nDouglas Campbell, Technical Director for Electroflight, explained: “The battery case was an extremely challenging piece of engineering, as the entire powertrain is connected to the front of the aircraft. The battery case is therefore doing an extremely important job, not just providing containment in the case of a battery fire, but also keeping the front of the aircraft connected to the fuselage structure. On top of that, we had to keep weight to an absolute minimum, and ensure that the product used for the battery case was highly fire-resistant.”\nElectroflight worked with Amorim Cork Composites to develop a fire-proofed agglomerate for the battery case internals made from cork lining. This unique invention, now patented, had the added benefit of being made from natural sustainable materials – a vital component given the overall objective of the ACCEL project: to accelerate aviation on the path to decarbonisation.\nAntónio Rios de Amorim, Chairman and CEO of Corticeira Amorim, said: “In the wake of COP26 last November, the need for electrification has never been clearer and aviation is one of the top priorities. It has been an honour to work with world-class businesses such as Electroflight and Rolls-Royce to further progress on the journey to aviation decarbonization, and the fact that we have created a new invention that could now help others down this path is extremely rewarding. We look forward to even more projects in this space that will champion the use of cork, one of nature’s most sustainable products.”", "label": "Yes"}

{"text": "It’s already October 9th! That means there’s only 22 more sleeps until Halloween! Do you know what you want to be yet? Well you’d better make up your mind. It’ll be Halloween before you know it and you don’t want to be part of the last minute scramble for a costume.\nOne of my favourite series of movies of all time is the Lord of the Rings Trilogy. I saw each film several times in theaters and I’ve watched the extended version on DVD more times than I should probably admit to. But what’s not to love? There’s magic, fighting, romance, orcs, hobbits and of course elves! This weekend, I was watching Legolas toss his majestic head of hair again and it occurred to me that we have everything you would need to put together a pretty decent elf costume in the shop.\nSo that’s exactly what I did! Or more specifically I put together a unisex accessory pack that could be the start of a most excellent elf costume. It begins with a green panne cloak. You could really use any colour cloak you want but green translates to elf for most people. Next we have a pair of prosthetic elf ears and green contacts. The ears are totally necessary but the contacts are optional. I find that they add a touch of other worldliness to the costume but the idea would still come across without them. I also added a pair of black velvet glovets. Again the glovets are not necessary but I think they help to give an air of royalty and elegance to your elf costume. Finally I topped the outfit off with a green glass potion holder because I just really just love the potion holders.\nNow you may have noticed that setup isn’t a complete outfit. If you wanted to you could just wear a pair of black pants and a black shirt or a black dress underneath and you would totally look like an elf. However if you wanted to step it up then I would suggest a pair of brown vegan leather bondage pants with Jamie’s white button-up poet shirt and some boots. Alternatively, you could go for more of an Arwen look with green satin mermaid gown and some Victorian inspired boots.\nSo what are you going to dress up as this Halloween? An elf?

{"text": "It was the peace advocate and poet Mattie Stepanek who said,\n“Even though the future seems far away, it is actually beginning right now.”\nThose words perfectly capture our feelings when it comes to 3D printing. It is the medium that the future will be built with, and we are already utilizing it today.\nWhat Can You Use 3D Printing For?\nWhat is 3D printing, anyway? In a nutshell, it is a form of manufacturing physical objects through a device that sculpts materials through the adding method. The machine decides how to create the finished projects by translating a digital file specifically designed for 3D printing.\nAnyway, since you’re reading this now, chances are you already know what 3D printing is. You just want to know what you can use it for. Well, it has a lot of practical applications, like the following:\nLet’s face it. Prototyping is one of the most resource-heavy steps in manufacturing. It wastes materials, time, and labor.\nFortunately, 3D printing can significantly cut down your resource spending by allowing you to produce your products using cheaper and reusable materials, like wax and biodegradable plastic, print them out and make adjustments on the fly. This speeds up your production schedule by weeks, and most of all, it will only require a small team to do so.\nWhat’s even better than prototyping is that 3D printing also allows for the actual manufacturing of your finished products. You just need to switch out your prototype medium with the actual material that you want to use and voila! You have end-use products for retail.\nFinally, you can also use 3D printing for repair and restoration. If you have a piece of equipment that broke down and you can’t find replacement parts, don’t worry. As long as you can find the digital design file of that part (or create one for it yourself), you can easily reproduce them with the use of your 3D printer. Problem solved.\nAside from the practical applications we have mentioned above, 3D printing is also making waves in different industries, such as the ones below:\nWe believe that 3D printing will resculpt various industries, but it will be most impactful and revolutionary when it comes to the healthcare industry.\nFrom printing out prosthetic limbs to personal protective equipment, 3D printing will be able to produce health gear twice as fast and allow specific adjustments without wasting exhaustive amounts of materials and time. This is especially important for an industry where fast-paced production and delivery mean the difference between life and death.\nIf there’s one thing that has been holding innovators back, particularly in the areas of engineering and technology, it’s this: pitching an abstract idea is difficult. You can create computer simulations of your idea at work, true, but it’s still not going to be concrete proof that your idea will actually translate well if and when it’s actually in action.\nWhat’s even more difficult is convincing investors to invest in your idea—to fund the prototyping of your idea and test if it will work. Fortunately, you can skip this part altogether. Innovators can now test their ideas, create working prototypes themselves, and produce a solid proof that their ideas do work even before they pitch it to investors for mass production.\nBetter yet, they can even produce the finished products themselves, as we have shared above. Sure, it might not be as wide-scale compared to an actual corporation handling the manufacturing, but you will be able to control how the product is presented and distributed, as well. Not to mention, you’ll reap all the benefits for yourself.\nSpeaking of translating ideas to life, before inventors can even come up with their world-changing ideas, they would have to obtain a certain degree of learning first. This is the reason why we can’t even express how much assistance 3D printing can give to the education sector. Never before has it been this easy for students to test out their ideas, especially those aiming to be a part of engineering and design.\nThe bottom line is, 3D printing is a vehicle in turning abstract into reality. Learning about 3D printing is not just learning how to create sculptural pieces. It’s learning how to build things from scratch. It’s learning how to construct a building, not just by knowing how to put bricks together but by knowing how to make your own bricks if you don’t have access to them.\nIn fact, we haven’t even fully explored the tip of the iceberg yet. There are still a lot of possibilities in 3D printing that we haven’t been able to discuss, and we’re sure that there are still a lot of possibilities that have yet to be discovered. It really is the future, and we can’t wait until we get there.", "label": "Yes"}

Users should be doing studies to visualize how far you probably wind up upon this pretty good AMD. Intel controversy.

Much more pertinently, they wouldn’t necessitate a ludicrously high-end motherboard to approach the better game. The above mentioned appears to mean users can splurge more on other items like a healthier GPU or a significantly larger SSD. If clients give deep stuff regarding quality and profitability doesn’t seem like a strategic decision variable for yourself instead of Intel’s Core i9 10900K and Core i5 10600K, it seems to be where you’d like to set your sights.\nThe latter implies users will most presumably provide a new Z490 or B550 motherboard. Meanwhile, AMD has introduced its latest B550 boards, offering PCIe 4.0 assistance at a more reasonable cost than a high-end X570. We’ll be sifting these other choices as we get through checking them. However, someone’s preference for a gaming motherboard will significantly affect one’s build’s components, not the lowest percentage of one’s PC’s diameter.\nHere are unbiased and experience-based reviews to provide you with proper help to choose the best motherboard for gaming so that you may not feel disappointed after a wrong selection while building your smart gaming PC.\nOur Recommendations for Best Motherboard for Gaming\nWe’re checking out ASUS’s new Crosshair VIII Formula motherboard along with a Ryzen 7 3700X processor; AMD prepped the X570 chipset, which provides one Ryzen Generation 3 processor an even more carefully designed perspective. The current model has been constructed in liquid cooling blocks, 5 Gbps Ethernet, and AX WIFI. The X570 motherboard for the third generation AMD Ryzen processors reigns supreme in the high-end motherboard spectrum.\nWhen AMD launched Zen’s 12 nm update, called Zen+, the memory compatibility issues were mostly gone, of course. With the launch of Ryzen 3000, Ryzen’s 3rd generation products, AMD is about to rattle the cages with a massively competitive and robust processor lineup. A topic of dialogues has been chipset integrity.\nIndeed ultimately, if users have a Series 300 or 400 chipsets AMD motherboard, they must aspire to a BIOS/firmware version from their motherboard’s producers. The users will spot a spectacular feature-laden motherboard, DDR4 A-XMP characteristics, PCIe 4.0 PCI slots, and a myriad of PCIe 4.0 integrated M.2.

Soon 2.5Gbps LAN will become the norm, with Gigabit being either a backup or a failover option as we see high-end boards equipping up to 10Gb ports now. With all the technical information out from under the fashion, just let the new Taichi B550 boot up.\nThe B550 Taichi comes with seven massive fan headers; the red rounded fan header is 3A worthy of connecting stuff like liquid refrigerating supplies or fast draw turbines. The sky blue connector is the header ranked at 1A for CPU fans. The gold connectors are prototype headers capable of 2A each for motherboard or water cooling, but all the ports can alarm-detect if a 3-pin DC or 4-pin PWM system is mounted.\nThe power waves are DRMos SiC654 50A modules and are supported by 60A voltage regulation inductors for the CPU and SOC. Some two-phase VRM memory operated by the uP1674P controller and the MOSFET dual Onsemi N-channel. The CPU / SOC PWM master, the ISL229004, also gets a closer shot. And now, we have the Bios Flashback regulator, which enables you to upgrade the UEFI after installing a compatible CPU.\nThe ASRock B550 Taichi has almost the same Polychrome RGB, Software Store, and Motherboard resources we tested as we protected the other ASRock boards. The entire motherboard overclocks, and the motherboard program allows for adjustment.

The Aorus Master has enhanced our Ryzen 9 3900X to 4.6 GHz at stock environments utilizing default configuration and the new BIOS. Overclocking ran perfectly, bringing our CPU to 4.3 GHz, while also running our 3600 RAM 4x8 GB RAM pack.\nWe see three (of eight) 4-pin PWM / DC fan headers alongside two (of five) RGB headers across the end. In the amendment to the three top titles, just underneath the 24-pin ATX adapter, you can find three further. On the Aorus Master output 1A/12W, we presume all fan IP header, as it is manual / instructions do not mention that instead. The RGB headers are a mix of three-pin RGBs and 4-pin-addressable.

For Vcore, that’s eight quadrupled stages, and one for the SOC. For the Vcore phases, the Godlike Intersil ISL69269 PWM driver, which can operate 12 separate degrees, is combined with ISL6617A doublers. Also, it indicates not only a LAN of 2.5 Gb / s but also a LAN of 10 Gb / s. The MSI MEG Z490 Godlike also features various networking solutions, including two rear I / O Thunderbolt 3 ports.\nIt has 10 fan headers, four stacked in the top-right corner, one just under the VRM, two in the middle of the right side, and three kindly supported their outstanding Trident Z Neo kit across the lower end of the table. It will be introducing a new testing methodology along with the latest hardware. The motherboard is also a stunning panel with outstanding RGB LED execution while retaining quickly matching neutral tones of color.\nSome may take issue with the significantly higher parameters vs. MSI’s own MEG Z490 integrate, but that essentially boils down to the toothed heatsink that gives the Godlike much more versatility at the expense of slight overall temperature rise at stock settings. The last thing to worry about, though, is the price. It places among a group, also called Radiance products at around US$ 750.\nThe H470 AORUS is a real monster of motherboards, with the best-quality elements, and GIGABYTE R&D refers to identifying.

It runs the OS (operating system) like Windows and Linux. These components let us customize and adjust the system called settings such as RAM frequency and fan speed. UEFI is base on an advanced system that has replaced the older BIOS system because it supports a more modern GPT partitioning scheme. Its firmware is capable of reading files from a small FAT system.\nThe motherboard component consists of a set of electronic elements designed to work with a specific family of microprocessors that manages the data flow between the processor and external devices. In other words, it allows the various parts of a motherboard to communicate with each other. That is why it determines the compatibility of a motherboard.\nPeripheral Component Interconnect Express slots, abbreviated as PCIe slots, are the components that accommodate add-in cards like graphics cards, dedicated sound cards, and SSD cards, etc. The slots come in different physical configurations and are measured in the lengths as x1, x4, x8, x16, x32. The number with the x indicates how many lanes that PCIe slot has. A PCIe x1 slot has one lane, and a PCIe x2 slot has two lanes that can move data at one bit per cycle in x1 and can move data at two bits per cycle in x2 (and so on), but the maximum possible data transfer rate move on 16 lanes and the measurement x32 means x16 for both card (2 x 16).\nThey are groups of pins or connectors placed on a motherboard that allows us to add additional USB ports to a computer via an appropriate set of header connectors, wires, and a USB port. Each pin on the header supports data flow to a wire inside a USB cable. The data is transferred through the D+ and D- connectors, while Gnd and Vbus connectors supply power to the USB device.\nSerial Advanced Technology Attachment ports are enclosed with two ports, the data connector and the power connector one is placed on the drive and another on the motherboard. It is an interface that connects storage devices like HDDs, Optical drivers, SSDs, etc. in a motherboard.\nDual In-Line Memory Module Slots abbreviated as DIMM Slots is a type of computer memory, placed with RAM on a motherboard. It has a 168-pin connector to support a 64-bit data transfer path in desktop PCs, laptops, printers, and other devices. The number of total slots takes part in the maximum amount/memory of a RAM.\nThere are numerous motherboards for PC installation, so it is difficult to choose the most compatible one. We often get confused, especially when we want to select the best one at a reasonable price. All of them are good in some respects. The users are often confused while building a gaming PC, so the reviews we have given above are based on entirely unbiased and experience-based performance taken by our team of gamers and engineers about the motherboards.

Discover how we uphold the highest standards in providing you with reliable knowledge.\nA lugger is a sailing vessel rigged with a lug sail; the name refers more to the rigging type than the vessel design as such. Lug sails belong to the “fore and aft” family of rigs in that they are orientated along the vessel's keel line. Sharing similarities with gaff rigs, lateen sails, and traditional square sail rigs, lugger rigging features a square sail suspended from a yard or gaff and secured below with a tack and a single sheet. The yard is attached to the mast at a point approximately two thirds of the way along its length, thereby giving the lug rig its characteristic “pitched up” appearance. Lugger rigs may be used on a variety of vessel sizes with single- or multi-mast configurations and offer the benefits of shorter mast lengths, less complex rigging, and good performance with smaller crews.\nLug sail rigs may be used on a wide variety of vessels ranging from small, single mast yawls to large multi-mast designs. This variant is a traditional fore and aft rig, i.e, the sails are aligned along the boat's keel line or lateral axis and not perpendicular to it as is the case in square rigged designs. Lugger sails are of a basic square shape and set or suspended along their top edges from a long beam or yard. The clew or lower rear corner of the sail is secured to the hull with a rope or line known as a sheet. The tack, or lower forward corner of the sail, is secured to the hull or mast with a tack line.\nThe yard and sail are hoisted up the mast with a line known as a halyard. The mast connection point or parrel on the yard is situated around two thirds of the way along its length which, when hoisted, sees the sail pitched upwards toward the rear giving and it its characteristic profile. The sheet and tack line are then used to adjust the sail according to prevailing wind conditions. In the case of larger lugger rigged vessels, a smaller lug sail may be set above the main sail. Lug sail rigging may be used on a wide variety of vessel sizes of both single- and multi-mast design.\nLug sails can be set up in three ways: standing, balance, or dipping. The standing lug rig is effective and easy to manage and sees the yard set to one side of the mast and only with the tack located close to or against the mast. The balance lug includes an additional spar or boom along the lower edge of the sail which typically extends some distance forward beyond the mast. This is a fairly powerful lug rig but quite difficult to handle. The dipping lug so setup that the yard is moved or “dipped” from one side of the mast to the other whenever the vessel is turned into the wind or brought about.\nLugger rigs are known for their relative ease of use and efficiency, thereby combining the best characteristics of square and fore/aft rigs. Their uncomplicated rigging means smaller crews are needed for any given vessel and sail size. The pitched yard profile also allows masts to be used which are shorter than the sail.", "label": "Yes"}

{"text": "Although the HA-NFS data service example described in this article is a simple case, the methodology presented is pertinent when creating more complicated data service setup scripts. Determining what changes need to be made to local files on each cluster node and what changes are made to the cluster environment, is key to understanding on which cluster nodes setup scripts need to run. By examining the dependencies between various cluster setup operations, you can develop the sequence of the steps required.\nAny well planned setup script should check the current configuration of the cluster before it runs operations that change the configuration. Since you cannot assume that logical device names are always identical, even between similar hardware configuration, you should probe the cluster's physical devices to find out what logical device names they are assigned, rather than specifying hard-coded logical names. Tips for writing scripts that check the cluster status and probe devices were provided along with scripting examples.

Our Long-Handled Spun Iron Wok utilizes the thinner metal that is essential to wok cooking, but instead of the traditional rounded bottom this flat bottom wok can be used on flat cooking surfaces such as an electric or induction stove.\nThe 7 ¾” long wooden handle is designed for classic one-handed stir-frying action and has a hole for a strap or hook. Spun iron is formed by spinning a disc of hot iron on a lathe. The result is generally half the weight of cast iron. It heats quickly, holds heat beautifully, and is nearly indestructible. Pre-seasoned with flax oil, it will season further the more you use it, eventually developing a virtually non-stick surface. Made in Shropshire, England.

In fact, urban gardening is a creative adventure for any city dweller, turning even the tiniest spaces into lush, green sanctuaries.

Group them strategically on windowsills, balcony railings, or shelving units to create a captivating display of greenery. Our hand-painted pots, available in various sizes and designs, are perfect for showcasing your favourite blooms or plants without overwhelming limited space. Let the colours and patterns of our pots infuse your small garden with character and vibrancy.\n3.

By integrating climbing plants into your outdoor area, you optimize space and add a touch of nature to your living areas. It's a seamless blend of form and function, turning your outdoor zone into a canvas for your urban garden. Stakes can add a fun quirky element to your outdoor area.

Small pots and containers are ideal for growing herbs like basil, mint, and rosemary. These herbs not only thrive in confined spaces but also add a burst of flavour to your cooking. Choose from our large range of small to medium pots for a playful and functional herb display that brings joy to your kitchen.\n6. Blossoming Balconies: Urban Oases Above the City\nIf you're fortunate enough to have a balcony, make the most of it. Transform it into a blooming retreat with different sized planters that line the edges, leaving the central space open for relaxation. Consider incorporating our space-efficient windspinners, adding a touch of kinetic art to your balcony oasis. Try filling a bucket or large pot with sand to pop the windspinner into. It's about creating a space that reflects your style and brings the serenity of nature to the heart of the city.\nIn conclusion, urban gardening is a testament to the creativity that flourishes in limited spaces. With these tips and the versatility of our handcrafted products, you can turn your urban dwelling into a green haven. Embrace the possibilities, plant by plant, and decoration by decor, and watch your small-space garden flourish into a vibrant, living testament to the beauty of green living. 🌿🏙️", "label": "Yes"}

Someday I’m going to have a real tree skirt, but until I get around to making one, I just use some fabric (with small white stars on it) draped around the bottom.\nI really wanted to have a garland of some sort on our tree this year. Most of the ribbon I found was too shiny for what I wanted and I couldn’t find exactly what I had in mind. You can actually buy burlap ribbon, but I couldn’t find any in the stores, I was too impatient to order some and wait for it to arrive, and I new I could make my own for much cheaper. So I ended up just cutting strips of burlap and draping the around the tree like ribbon. The edges aren’t nice and neat, but that’s ok with me.\nI also used the burlap and make a bow for the top of the tree. I’ve never had a tree topper because I’ve never been able to find or make one that I like, so this is our first one and I really like how it turned out (I need to get my handy husband to trim of that top branch though, huh?)\nGrowing up my mom made some cinnamon ornaments that smelled so amazing year after year. I found out it is really easy (mix equal parts applesauce and cinnamon, roll out like dough, cut with cookie cutters, and bake on a cookie sheet at 200* until dry) and they made our house smell amazing! I made a bunch of little stars.\nI also found these great paper ornaments at Hobby Lobby that looked like barn stars (stars are kinda my thing, if you haven’t noticed) so I gave them a turquoise base coat and then dabbed some red on top with a paper towel.\nOf course I had to play around and practice taking pictures of the tree (I never can quite capture in a picture the way the tree looks in real life).\nA Christmas tree is definitely my favorite Christmas decoration!", "label": "Yes"}

The ‘La Porte Enchantee’ Collection is Gwendolynne’s most delicately and refined beaded collection to date.

Staff were also invited to contribute to the design scheme by selecting finishes, artworks and artefacts.\nThe design emphasises the unique architecture of the iconic Fort Dunlop building, and maximises views from the building.\nWilmington eschewed a traditional reception area in favour of a dynamic space focused on hospitality, refreshment and welcome.

It was an unusual journey working through the lockdown period, but our inhouse project manager and Estilo Interiors made it happen.\n“The space was designed before COVID to be more than just desks. It seems strange to me that it’s taken a pandemic for everyone to start talking about how to entice people into the workplace. Judging from the amazing feedback from my colleagues who have visited in the last couple of weeks we’re ahead of the curve and they can’t wait to return!”\nLucy Hansell, from Estilo’s business development team, said: “At the forefront of the design was the need to introduce variety and space to allow for future flexibility. This approach has already delivered freedoms following the challenges of COVID-19. Wilmington do not need to make any material changes to support staff back into the office – the environment itself is encouraging employees to look at returning with positivity.\n“Estilo won this prestige brief against stiff competition from national competitors. Wilmington left no stone unturned or corner cut to deliver a first-class workplace for its team. It was great to share the journey with them.”\nEstilo Interiors, based in the Jewellery Quarter, specialises in commercial interior design, fit-out, refurbishment and furniture provision. Established in 2003, the business turned over £20.4million in its last financial year and is on track to grow to £25million by 2021.", "label": "Yes"}

But WPF’s control library shipped with NET 4.0 data binding support is very limited, it is a lot better than WinForm, but still it’s not enough for bindable MVVM, I would say it’s power is about 30% of what is needed for bindable MVVM. … In short: MVVM is not pointless, it’s great.\nIs MVC a react?\nReact isn’t an MVC framework. React is a library for building composable user interfaces. It encourages the creation of reusable UI components which present data that changes over time.\nWhat is MVC approach?\nModel–view–controller (usually known as MVC) is a software design pattern commonly used for developing user interfaces that divides the related program logic into three interconnected elements.\nWhat is difference between MVP MVC Mvvm in Android?\nDifferences to MVP. MVVM uses data binding and is therefore a more event driven architecture. MVP typically has a one to one mapping between the presenter and the view, while MVVM can map many views to one view model In MVVM the view model has no reference to the view, while in MVP the view knows the presenter.\nWhat is difference between MVP MVC MVVM model?\nWell-known frameworks such as iOS use the MVC pattern, and Android development, Ruby on Rails, whereas ASP.NET web form applications make use of MVP development. On the other hand, MVVM is used by Silverlight, nRoute, Caliburn, WPF and more.\nWhy is MVP better than Mvvm?\nThe advice hides rather in data-binding. In cases where binding with DataContext is not possible, most developers prefer MVP (Windows Forms being a great example). MVVM is of preference in cases where binding with DataContext is possible, as there are less interfaces and less code to maintain.\nShould I use MVVM?\nModel-View-ViewModel (MVVM) is a client-side design pattern. It guides the structure and design of your code to help you achieve “Separation of Concerns.” Implementing MVVM requires a bit of a mind-shift in the way you think about the functionality of your application.\nWhat kind of pattern is MVC?\nIn the MVC design pattern, the view and the controller makes use of strategy design and the view and the model are synchronized using the observer design. Hence, we may say that MVC is a compound pattern. The controller and the view are loosely coupled and one controller can be used by multiple views.\nWhich is better MVC or MVVM?\nConclusions. Both MVP and MVVM do a better job than MVC in breaking down your app into modular, single purpose components, but they also add more complexity to your app. For a very simple application with only one or two screens, MVC may work just fine.\nWhat is MVC MVP and MVVM pattern?\nMVC, MVP, and MVVM are three most popular design patterns. … All these design patterns by and large help in developing applications that are loosely combined, easy to test and maintain. However, there’s a framework called MVVMCross that allows you to integrate MVVM design pattern to Android and iOS platforms.\nWhat is MVP coding?\nA minimum viable product (MVP) is a concept from Lean Startup that stresses the impact of learning in new product development. Eric Ries, defined an MVP as that version of a new product which allows a team to collect the maximum amount of validated learning about customers with the least effort.\nWhat is MVP and MVC?\nMVC (Model — View — Controller) and MVP (Model — View — Presenter) are the two most popular android architectures among developers.\nWhy MVP is better than MVC?\nThe only difference of Presenter in MVP from the Controller in typical MVC is that it also decides what will happen when you interact with the View. That’s why it is easier to unit test it by mocking the View and Model. … MVP in Android is widely used design pattern as it is more testable and readable.\nIs react MVVM or MVC?\nThat is why MVC model is still popular along with Model-View-Presenter (MVP) and Model-View-View-Model (MVVM). Angular is based on the MVC architecture, while React has just “V” (view) of MVC.\nWhat is the advantage of MVVM?\nIn Android, MVC refers to the default pattern where an Activity acts as a controller and XML files are views. MVVM treats both Activity classes and XML files as views, and ViewModel classes are where you write your business logic. It completely separates an app’s UI from its logic.\nDoes Android use MVC?\nMost Android developers use a common architecture called MVC, or Model-View-Controller. This pattern is classic, and you will find it in the majority of development projects. It’s not the only software pattern, but it’s the one we’ll study in this course and apply to our TopQuiz application.\nWhat does Mvvm stand for?\nModel–view–viewmodelModel–view–viewmodel (MVVM) is a software architectural pattern that facilitates the separation of the development of the graphical user interface (the view) – be it via a markup language or GUI code – from the development of the business logic or back-end logic (the model) so that the view is not dependent on any …", "label": "Yes"}
{"text": "Table of Contents\nIn today’s business landscape, having an online presence is crucial for successful development. However, with a vast number of competitors, it is effortless for a brand to become overshadowed and overlooked.\nHence, businesses are actively seeking effective strategies to enhance the visibility and appeal of their brand to existing and prospective customers. Building a personalized mobile application is one of the choices they consider.\nTailor-made mobile applications assist businesses in delivering a personalized user experience, fostering customer loyalty, and establishing a coherent and comprehensible brand image.\nNevertheless, in the absence of a clear vision regarding the desired appearance and functionality of a company’s mobile application, the development process can lead to inefficiencies and squandering of financial and resource investments.\nHow to Start Developing a Mobile Application?\nThis article will offer a comprehensive, step-by-step guide on initiating the development of a mobile application with effectiveness and efficiency in mind.\nThe inception of every software development process begins with an idea for an application. Typically, when businesses contemplate developing a bespoke mobile solution, they already possess a certain vision of the app’s aesthetics and functionality.\nPrior to engaging with a mobile development team, it is advisable to outline the fundamental concepts of the product. This practice facilitates a more precise definition of the product idea and significantly simplifies its presentation to the development team.\nThe following are key areas of focus:\nMobile app objective: This entails assisting companies in determining the purpose of their mobile solution and how it will enhance their workflow processes. This may encompass improving customer service, optimizing internal business operations, enhancing supplier search and management, and various other objectives.\nTarget audience: The subsequent crucial aspect to address is identifying the potential users of the digital solution. They may include internal staff, retail customers, B2B clients, and various other individuals or groups.\nMobile App Features: It play a vital role as they define the functionality of the application, impact the budget, and determine the necessary resources for app development.\nMarket research is closely intertwined with outlining the project idea, making it worthwhile to initiate the research process before scheduling a meeting with the development team.\nDuring this phase, businesses delve into assessing the potential demand for their mobile app in the market and explore the offerings of their competitors. To achieve this, businesses can:\n- Conduct comprehensive research of the global market and its existing offerings to identify mobile app solutions that are similar to the one being developed.\n- Examine the points of differentiation between the developed product and its competitors, ascertain the target audience needs it addresses more effectively, and evaluate its overall market value.\nMarket research is an ongoing endeavor that extends beyond a single instance. It can be conducted during the app development process and after the desired solution is built. For instance, while the mobile app is being developed, the company can opt to swiftly construct a minimum viable product (MVP) and gauge the responses of the target audience. Alternatively, in the post-production phase, a SWOT analysis can be performed on competitors’ digital solutions to gain insights into enhancing the existing app and identifying valuable features to incorporate.\nIn their pursuit of creating highly competitive and high-performing mobile apps, certain businesses may occasionally exceed the optimal threshold by attempting to incorporate an excessive number of features.\nWhile each additional feature incurs an increase in development costs, it does not guarantee an improvement in the overall efficiency of the app.\nTo determine which features are crucial for the app and which ones can be added later, many companies commonly begin by developing a Minimum Viable Product (MVP).\nAn MVP embodies a fundamental version of the digital product, encompassing essential functions that can be swiftly launched into the market.\nBy introducing the product to end-users during the early stages of development, businesses can acquire valuable feedback from their customers.\nConsequently, they can promptly incorporate app improvements and more effectively align the developed solution with user requirements.\nHere are a few questions that can aid in making better decisions regarding the essential features of an MVP:\n- What business objectives will it assist in achieving?\n- What functionalities will your mobile app encompass?\n- Who will be the users of your app: regular users, administrators, or technical support personnel?\n- What are the compelling reasons for people to choose and use your app?\n- Who will comprise your target audience?\nPrototyping is a crucial component of the app development process, where designers and stakeholders collaborate to create mock-ups and wireframes that illustrate the intended functionality and appearance of the future app.\nThis enhances the clarity of mobile app design and demonstrates the interconnections between app screens. Prototypes also facilitate an understanding of the simplicity and intuitiveness of app navigation, as well as the clarity and logical structure of the user flow.\nDuring the creation of prototypes, designers meticulously focus on the aesthetics of the app, carefully selecting contemporary color palettes, design elements, and various other visual aspects.\nWhen it comes to UI/UX design for mobile apps, designers adhere to certain general principles to ensure a consistent and seamless user experience.\niOS or Android?\nChoosing the platform on which the developed solution will operate is a crucial aspect that should be carefully considered from the outset of mobile app development.\nThis is because the platform dictates the development stack comprising tools and programming languages that will be utilized to create the app.\nThe two primary platforms for mobile app development are iOS and Android, both deserving of companies’ attention due to their ability to attract distinct categories of users.\nHere are some key points to consider about the iOS and Android platforms:\nAndroid: A dominant platform in the market with over 3 billion active users. The Android app development market offers several advantages, including smartphones available at various price points, extensive customization options, an up-to-date file system, support for over 100 languages, monthly security updates, and more. The Android development stack typically includes tools and programming languages such as Android Studio, Android Debug Bridge, Eclipse, Native Development Kit, Java, Kotlin, Python, C/C++, and many others.\niOS: iOS is the second most popular mobile platform with over 1 billion users worldwide. The iOS app market is known for its emphasis on quality, superior retail support, absence of bloatware, biometric authentication capabilities, and more. The primary iOS development tools and programming languages include Xcode, AppCode, CocoaPods, Transporter, Swift, and others.\nNative or Hybrid?\nWhen a company decides to develop a mobile app for both Android and iOS platforms, it must choose between two software development approaches: Native or Hybrid.\nEach approach has its own set of advantages and disadvantages, which will significantly impact the subsequent app development and maintenance processes.\nThe primary distinction between a native and hybrid app lies in the programming languages they utilize, the associated budget, and the project’s objectives.\nHybrid apps offer advantages in terms of a unified codebase, cost-effectiveness, and time efficiency.\nMobile app development always necessitates significant investments. However, if the developed solution can generate revenue, it can assist companies in recouping their costs at a faster pace.\nHence, businesses should determine the most suitable monetization options to incorporate into their mobile apps.\nThere are various options for monetization to consider:\n- Freemium apps (available for free download, but with optional in-app purchases to unlock advanced features);\n- Premium apps (require purchasing the app from the store);\n- In-app purchases or ads;\n- Sponsorships (this option becomes viable once you attain a certain user base volume).\nThe mobile app launch is a crucial phase wherein the final product’s success is truly tested. Therefore, it is of utmost importance to lay the groundwork for a seamless app release.\nDuring this stage, companies can endeavor to attract the maximum possible audience prior to the app launch.\nFor instance, they can establish an official app page and consistently share information regarding app features, planned updates, previews, design solutions, and more. This approach aids in gathering user feedback, identifying unnecessary features, and allowing for potential redesign if certain features prove to be confusing.\nAdditionally, it is essential to bear in mind that the majority of mobile apps are discovered through organic search. Therefore, businesses should proactively plan their app store optimization by providing an informative app description, relevant keywords, compelling screenshots, and a preview video. By taking these steps, the product launch can be executed smoothly in the market.\nDeveloping a customized mobile app is a powerful strategy for businesses to differentiate their brand from competitors, expand their reach to broader audiences, and boost both revenue and market share.\nHowever, the process of app development demands substantial investment, resources, time, and expertise. Therefore, companies must meticulously plan each development step to ensure the initial success of their mobile app and mitigate any unexpected expenses.\nIf you are also considering the development of a custom mobile solution, we trust that this article will assist you in adequately preparing for your discussion with the development team.\nIf you are currently in search of mobile software developers, we recommend considering the expertise of SYSTAFF’s mobile development specialists.\nOur team of mobile app developers boasts more than 20 years of experience in creating diverse projects for both iOS and Android platforms, as well as developing cross-platform solutions of varying complexities.", "label": "Yes"}

{"text": "The Beauty and Benefits of Epoxy Resin\nEpoxy resin has gained immense popularity in the crafting and DIY community. Its versatility and stunning finish make it a go-to material for a wide range of projects. In this blog post, we will explore what epoxy resin is, its various uses, tips for working with it, a step-by-step tutorial, advantages and disadvantages, and inspiring project ideas.\nWhat is Epoxy Resin?\nEpoxy resin is a type of synthetic polymer that is created through the reaction of resin and hardener. It is known for its durability and glossy finish, making it ideal for various applications. Epoxy resin is available in both liquid and solid forms, allowing for different uses and techniques.\nUses of Epoxy Resin\nThere are numerous ways to utilize epoxy resin in creative projects. Here are some popular uses:\n1. Resin Art and Jewelry: Epoxy resin can be used to create stunning artwork on canvases or wooden panels. It allows for the incorporation of pigments and dyes to achieve vibrant and unique designs. Additionally, epoxy resin can be used to make beautiful jewelry pieces like pendants and earrings.\n2. Tabletops, Countertops, and Bar Tops: Epoxy resin can provide a protective and glossy coating for surfaces like tabletops, countertops, and bar tops. It enhances the aesthetics and durability of the surface while providing resistance to heat, scratches, and stains.\n3. Personalized Keychains and Coasters: Epoxy resin can be used to make personalized keychains and coasters by embedding small objects, such as photos, flowers, or trinkets, in the resin.\n4. Encasing Objects for Preservation: Epoxy resin can preserve delicate objects, such as flowers, leaves, and insects, by encasing them in a clear resin block or pendant. This technique allows for long-term preservation and display of these objects.\nTips for Working with Epoxy Resin\nWorking with epoxy resin requires careful attention to detail and proper technique. Here are some useful tips:\n1. Safety First: Always wear protective gear such as gloves, safety glasses, and a respirator when working with epoxy resin, as some resins can emit fumes and may cause skin irritation.\n2. Measure Accurately: Follow the manufacturer's instructions and measure the epoxy resin and hardener accurately for the proper mix ratio. A digital scale is always recommended for precise measurements.\n3. Prevent Air Bubbles: To achieve a smooth and bubble-free finish, use a heat gun, torch or IPA (Isopropyl Alcohol) to lightly pass over the surface of the resin to remove any trapped air bubbles.\n4. Practice Patience: Epoxy resin takes time to cure properly. Follow the recommended curing time provided by the manufacturer and ensure the workspace is free from dust and debris during the curing process.\nStep-by-Step Tutorial: Creating a Resin Art Piece\nLet's walk through the process of creating a resin art piece:\n1. Gather Materials: You will need epoxy resin, hardener, a mixing container, pigments or dyes, a canvas, stirring sticks, gloves, and a heat gun or torch.\n2. Prepare the Workspace: Ensure your workspace is clean, well-ventilated, and free from dust and debris. IPA (Isopropyl Alcohol) can be a great way to disinfect and ensure a clean surface. Protect the surface with a plastic or silicone mat.\n3. Mix the Resin: Follow the manufacturer's instructions to mix the resin and hardener in the proper ratio. Stir the mixture thoroughly, scraping the sides and bottom of the container to ensure a proper mix.\n4. Adding Pigments/Dyes: If desired, add pigments or dyes to the resin to create your desired colors. Stir well to incorporate the color evenly.\n5. Pour and Spread: Pour the resin mixture onto the canvas in desired patterns or designs. Use a stirring stick or a heat-resistant spatula to spread and manipulate the resin to achieve the desired effect.\n6. Removing Air Bubbles: Pass a heat gun or torch over the surface of the resin to remove any trapped air bubbles. Move the heat source quickly and at a safe distance to avoid scorching or burning the resin.\n7. Curing and Finishing: Allow the resin to cure according to the manufacturer's instructions. Once fully cured, you can add additional layers, apply a varnish for added protection, or attach hanging hardware if desired.\nAdvantages and Disadvantages of Epoxy Resin\nLike any material, epoxy resin has its own advantages and disadvantages:\n* Highly durable and resistant to scratches and impact.\n* Provides a glossy and professional finish.\n* Allows for customization with pigments or dyes.\n* Can be used in various applications, from art to functional items.\n* Longer curing time compared to other materials.\n* Some resins can yellow or become discolored over time, especially when exposed to sunlight.\n* Requires careful handling and proper safety precautions.\nInspiring Epoxy Resin Projects\nHere are some project ideas to inspire your creativity:\n1. Geode-Inspired Resin Art: Create a stunning geode-inspired resin art piece with vibrant colors and sparkling crystals.\n2. Ocean-Inspired Resin Tray: Design a resin tray with swirling hues of blues and greens, resembling the ocean waves.\n3. Resin-Coated Wood Furniture: Give new life to old wooden furniture by applying a glossy resin coat for a modern and sleek look.\n4. Resin Pendant with Real Flowers: Preserve delicate flowers from a special occasion by encasing them in a resin pendant.\nRemember, the possibilities with epoxy resin are endless. Let your imagination run wild and explore the beauty and versatility of this incredible material!\nConclusionEpoxy resin is a captivating material that allows artists and crafters to bring their creative visions to life. Whether you're creating resin art, coating surfaces, or preserving special objects, epoxy resin offers a wide range of benefits. By following proper techniques and safety precautions, you can unleash your creativity and produce stunning epoxy resin projects.

{"text": "Is it time for Toronto to build some new monuments?\nPublic Works looks at public space, urban design, and city-building innovations from around the world, and considers what Toronto might learn from them.\nLast week, architect Frank Gehry and theatre impresario David Mirvish announced a plan to build three massive 80-plus storey condo towers near King Street West and University Avenue. This is Frank Gehry, so we’re not talking glass econo-boxes: the preliminary models were appropriately offbeat, with each massive tower unique, and the podium beneath resembling a crumpled Metro tossed by a sloppy commuter.\nDespite fanciful exteriors, Gehry structures aren’t full of tesseracts and staircases to nowhere. They’re actually pleasingly functional. The proposed Toronto towers would include not only condos, but an art museum, a new OCAD facility, green terracing, and features intended to integrate the buildings into the street and the city.\nNevertheless, the Gehry towers can be considered one of those class of structures intended not just to serve a purpose, but to draw attention, to start conversations, and to be tourist attractions in their own right. They would be, in part, spectacles.\nShowpiece buildings, as a concept, have a long history. Consider the iconic Eiffel Tower, the railway bridge tipped skywards that was once considered a monstrous scar on the face of the City of Light. Or, more recently, the giant Ferris wheel that is the London Eye (you’ll recall a similar idea for the Toronto waterfront, hatched in a fit of originality by Councillor Doug Ford).\nOr for that matter, the Pyramids of Egypt. There’s no reason the Pharaohs couldn’t have parked their mummies under a simple-yet-elegant headstone.\nAll of the above have long since returned their investment in hype and tourist cash.\nBut for the price of a single Gehry building, you could probably throw up half a dozen Lake Shore-style clone condos to further monotonize the Toronto skyline. And what if everyone hates the Gehry complex?\nIs betting the farm on attention-grabbing architectural marvels a good idea?\nWe used to think so.\nToronto’s claim to fame was once the CN Tower. For 30 years, it was The World’s Tallest Free-Standing Structure, until a younger, taller competitor pushed it from the number-one spot. The Burj Khalifa in Dubai achieved full erection in 2010, leaving our Tower little more than a massive phallic anachronism, yin to the open-roofed yang of the Rogers Centre next door, their never-to-be-consummated yearning destined to be pondered by an ever-dwindling number of jaded, Burj-diverted travellers.\nDubai, of course, is the king of architectural bling. That’s its thing. It lacks oil wealth, and until the 21st century, it was principally known for its high-end airport mall, and for governance slightly less misogynistic and repressive than that in neighbouring Saudi Arabia.\nUnsatisfied with being the place where Russian tourists bought their Rolexes on the way home from elsewhere, Dubai went deep on wondrous mega-projects designed to lure travellers out of the departure lounge.\nApart from the Burj Khalifa, there’s the Dynamic Tower, an 80-storey rotating skyscraper; the World Islands, a group of artificial islands roughly shaped like the world; and Dubailand, an ambitious complex of shopping and theme parks the size of a city. There have been a lot more huge projects there, besides. Too many to mention.\nAlas, hubris, mismanagement, and the 2008 financial crisis have left Dubai, for all practical purposes, bankrupt. Most of the mega-projects have gone quiet. Not a shovel has been lifted for the Dynamic Tower, and the World Islands are uninhabited, a single show home occupying the global archipelago.\nWhile this cautionary tale is worth noting, Toronto is not Dubai. Any undertakings of such scale will be, like the Gehry proposal, driven by the private sector, and funded with care by cautious silver-haired Canadian bankers. There will be no gravy trains taking us down the track to ruin.\nSo yes dammit, bring the towers and a dozen more. We Torontonians deserve our own icons, our gigantic steel and glass fetishes, monuments to our collective creativity and daring, and magnets for the awestruck yokels of less-favoured metropoli.\nThe days of timid deferential Canadianism are long gone. Let’s build the absurd, beautiful, interesting city we want to live in.", "label": "Yes"}

{"text": "The Current Landscape\nCollectible card games like Magic The Gathering and Hearthstone are still very popular games up to this day, but they miss a crucial functional marketplace. Obtaining new cards and trading cards is quite a hassle. Blockchain can provide a solution here with NFT’s (Non-Fungible Tokens).\nNFT’s are unique tokens. Of each token, only a limited amount exists. The amount is fixed when the NFT is minted.\nNFT’s can be used to register a unique item, owned by a specific player, like a specific playing card, with specific value and functionality. When these items are registered as NFT’s, they can be traded and, if there is demand, have value.\nCollectible card games and blockchain form a perfect match, so naturally a new collectible card game is being built on the Tezos blockchain: “Emergents”.\nAs announced on Twitter, the first cards will be minted and presented in June, during a virtual Comic-Con. The game itself will not be far behind, and is expected to launch in early fall.\nThe game itself will be preceded by NFT comics that are based on Emergents to bring some of the characters in the game to life. This publishing line will also be presented in June alongside the first NFT mints.\nThe line of comics will be adding a unique form of interaction with the readers.\n“By tapping into the power of Tezos, fans will experience unprecedented new ways to interact with and shape the narrative of those three titles through community governance systems.\nReaders of the comics will be able to participate in choices that range in scope from the “cosmetic to the cosmic” from issue to issue.\nBut that’s not all, besides the first playing cards of Emergents and the launch of the comics series, a skill-based gaming platform will be launched end of April.\nThe first game is a variation of Solitaire and will also involve NFT’s. This will be:\n“the first in a series of games that will allow users to stake their tez in a prize pool, play the game, and have rewards distributed on a verifiable, secure network.”\nEmergents has been in development for a while. Besides fun and challenging to play, one of the objectives of the developers of the game is to make it enjoyable to watch.\nThis makes it not only more accessible and easier to learn, but it will also make contests and tournaments way more interesting.\nThis will help grow a thriving community. If we look at Magic the Gathering (one of the most successful collectible card games) and its community as an example, we see that it has an exceedingly high level of engagement with Magic’s creators.\nFor Emergents, community involvement will be encouraged as the Tezos governance model will be applied in Emergents:\n“Players will be given a voice in community decisions based on a combination of what they own and what they have accomplished, as appropriate to the current decision.”\nAs with most card games, you can buy playing cards.\n“Cards in a Coase CTG (Collectable Trading Game) are auctioned off using a multi-lot, single price, increasing bid auction with a token bonding curve implemented as a smart contract on a blockchain.”\nThe number of specific cards will be limited.\nThis will enable players to build a unique collection of cards, perfectly shaped for their playing style. The value of a card is tied to its scarcity.\nBesides scarcity, usability will determine its value. Nothing new here, but the cards of the game developed by Coase, will be registered on the blockchain. And doing so, extra info of its accomplishments will be registered too.\nCertain milestones can be reached which will unlock options, modifications and premium levels. So playing will also increase its value, both in gameplay- and in trading value.\nEasy, accessible and a low threshold to learn the gameplay\nOne of the objectives is to make it more watchable, which will make it not only more accessible and easier to learn, but it will also make contests and tournaments way more interesting. Besides that, the game will be mobile friendly.\nGameplay, community engagement, an easy access functioning marketplace, should capture a lot of what makes physical card games great. Combined with the possibility to unlock certain potential of cards Emergents should be a very interesting game to play. The team behind the game justifies high expectations of the game itself. The creative minds behind Emergents are:\n– Brian David-Marshall:\nWriter and creator for Marvel Comics, Magic: The Gathering Pro Tour Historian, and a former player. He is one of the founders of Gray Matter Conventions, one of the first Magic: The Gathering tournament organizers, and Neutral Ground, formerly the largest gaming location in New York City. Currently he is mostly involved in the collectible card game industry. Brian is one of the premiere commentators and consultants for Magic: The Gathering, the first collectible card game.\n– Zvi Mowshowitz:\nFormer professional Magic: the gathering player and ranking in the hall of Fame. Involved in the collectible card game industry through research and development and consulting for various games.\n– Alan Comer:\n“Chief Technical Officer, built AI and rules engines for popular franchises like Pokémon and Magic: The Gathering online edition. He has over 20 years of experience building rules engines and digital card games. He most recently worked at Valve Games, one of the most successful gaming companies in the US.”\n– Kathleen Breitman:\nCo-founder of Tezos", "label": "Yes"}

{"text": "In this post from the elements and principles of art series on Art Class Curator, see varying examples of unity in art. From harmony with shape to unity using texture, find all of your unity in art examples in one place!\nUnity in Art\nUnity (also called harmony) is an important principle of design that gives the artwork a sense of cohesion or coherence. It is the wholeness or completeness of a picture. Unity and harmony in art are used by artists to tie a composition together and help the composition make sense as a whole piece of art.\nThe principles of design are ways to organize the elements of art (line, shape, color, form, space, value, texture) to create a wide range of effects. To create unity or harmony in art, artists arrange the similar components and elements of art to create consistency. Unity or harmony can also be created by merging the form and the meaning of the artwork together.\nUnity and variety in art are often discussed together, because ultimately an artwork must contain both unity and variety to be a successful work of art, and there must be balance between the two.\n“The essence of the beautiful is unity in variety.” – William Somerset Maugham\nUnity can be very subtle when done well. A unified artwork will just look right, complete, and pleasing. Principles of art unity is not necessarily just a repetition of the same element over and over again, but it is the pleasing combination of elements to create the big picture.\nBotero creates unity in The Musicians with form, shape, color, line, and space.\nDownload the Free Elements and Principles Printable Pack\nThis pack of printables was designed to work in a variety of ways in your classroom when teaching the elements and principles of art.

{"text": "Our tax resolution client, Community Tax, receives an overwhelming 1000 leads per day for tax preparation and resolution. Taxes are intrinsically involved in human life & most individuals and businesses are burdened with managing them due to the complicated processes. Community Tax wanted to help such clients using a CRM System to manage their end-to-end customer journey. We helped them automate the various manual process to build a great user and customer experience.\nThe founders wanted to implement a system that runs the entire tax service company instead of solving the micro-level needs for efficiency in sales and marketing. Moreover, the customer experience is essential for stressed-out individuals with tax issues.\nSolving for customer experience becomes crucial because each client has 8-10 touchpoints. These touchpoints arrive across various departments, having different yet simultaneous processes. Most of the workflow processes were manual tasks which also required a broader perspective of the problem.\nSugarCRM provided the level of customizations and integrations that best served the company requirements. Community Tax associated with SugarCRM solutions partner Nablasol to execute their strategy. They sought to improve both customer and user experience by implementing automated workflows as a top priority.\nThe high-touch processes at Community Tax were all automated using integrations and uniques customizations. These processes consisted of marketing and lead management; initial screening (sales); approval and enrollment; billing and financing; investigation; tax prep; resolution; and ongoing monitoring. Now, the team was able to keep the client engaged throughout the customer journey. They had greater visibility and integrated data across all the touchpoints leading to better customer service and automation.\nNablasol helped Community Tax design an automated workflow and a more engaging process that used a custom app to search for a case number. The application auto-fills all the fields and emails the customer a secure link to sign the required documents. This happens while the customer is still on call with the sales team.\nAnother automation feature developed was a seamless workflow to help customers navigate the telephone system or reduce getting transferred multiple times. We integrated their phone system SugarCRM that aided the identification of clients using caller ID ahead of time. It also helped in determining the stage they are in, the service agent they talked to, and automatically route them directly to the employee.\nImpact on Business\nCommunity Tax now enrolls 80% of their clientele on the same day and sometimes even closes business on the first call.\nThe various automation provided a macro-, departmental-, and user-level visibility of the customer journey. Nablasol, as the company’s Digital Transformation partner, played a crucial role in developing the customer experience fit of the tax service company.\nRead the full case study here – SugarCRM Case Study", "label": "No"}

{"text": "Storage Cabinet. Sunday , December 17th , 2017 - 22:00:06 PM\nRegular Storage Cabinets are similar in strength to their metal garage cabinet counterpart in load capacities per shelf and overall unit capacity. The real advantage they do have is the selection they offer to the consumer. There is a great selection and advantage of storage cabinets in regards to sizes, styles, options and colors. If the cabinet has to have leveling legs for the uneven surface of the garage, this option exists for storage cabinets...typically $5 per cabinet to add on. Cabinets come with adjustable shelving and fixed shelving options, with shelf capacities being a bit higher with fixed shelving. An example would be for a 36\" wide shelf, the fixed shelf is 230 lbs of load where the adjustable is 180 lbs.\nIf you are looking for durability, you should opt for steel cabinets. But wooden cabinets are elegant and attractive. Usually, wooden cabinets are acquired for small offices or for home offices because in such offices, these cabinets will not be used as frequently as in bigger offices. For adding safety, you can also have types in which the drawers are interlocked. You also have fire-proof storage cabinets. Another point you should remember while buying your file storage cabinets is that you may have an expansion program of your company and you should have enough space for such an expansion.\nFixed or Adjustable Shelving. When choosing between what type of shelving to get for your cabinet, remember that fixed shelving will have a lower load capacity plus you cannot layout your shelves in any creative height order. Typically, adjustable shelves will allow you to move in 2\" increments from the center which allows a user to be flexible with its storage items. Locking mechanisms. There are various locking mechanisms for storage cabinets today from handles to recessed, push button or even digital keypad. It depends on whether you just need to store the items or if you need to securely store the items that will be your ultimate decision maker on this topic. If higher security is the issue, we would recommend a cabinet that has a recessed handle or Medico pick resistant lock.\nAny content, trademark/s, or other material that might be found on this site that is not this site property remains the copyright of its respective owner/s.

It’s used at the product level in several places, with his Discord, Uber Eats, Bloomberg, and Instagram iOS apps being prime examples of commercial implementations.\nReact Native code may contain HTML-like syntax, but it doesn’t actually use HTML. Rather, it uses an interpreter to create and manipulate views based on the device’s native requirements.\nThis guide will walk you through setting up a barebones React Native app from scratch for your Android machine. I personally don’t have an iPhone or iPad, but from what I’ve seen the methodology is pretty much the same.\nHow I Ditched Expo For Pure React Native\nThis is the part where many developers who use his React in general get confused. We know React Native uses React.js, but to what extent?\nWhat many people don’t realize is that there is another library called ReactDOM that adds web support to React.js. This is because React.js itself is platform independent. In fact, this is the library that builds the component tree used by the “bridging” libraries for specific platforms such as web and mobile.\nIn the context of React Native, there is a React.js part and a Native part to allow native app development across platforms.\nReact Native Without Expo · Issue #1858 · Pmndrs/react Three Fiber · Github\nWhen it comes to setting up React Native, you have two options: the Expo CLI quickstart or the React Native CLI quickstart.\nThis tutorial uses Expo.

Besides, up to 80% of the code can be reused for developing the same app for other platforms. These are not the only reason why you should invest in a cross-platform app, below are some more:Broader Market Reach\nDeveloping a cross-platform mobile app allows you to target multiple platforms, including Android and iOS. These two platforms have already dominated the global mobile market. Targeting more audiences means tapping into a wider user base, which enhances your brand’s visibility and expands potential customer reach.Cost-Efficient\nCross-platform apps can be developed using a single codebase, which significantly shrinks the development costs and time. It also streamlines the development process and saves effort and resources.Faster Time-to-Market\nHaving a unified codebase saves development time, and developers can quickly launch the app among targeted audiences. With this, businesses can seize opportunities to stay ahead of the competition.Easier Maintenance\nCompared to native apps, where developers write the code for each platform, cross-platform apps require maintaining and enhancing only one codebase. Any change made to one platform will automatically reflect on the other platforms. It ensures consistency, seamless functionality, and an unmatched user experience.\nHere are some of the latest frameworks, databases, frontend and backend technologies, and testing tools developers rely upon for cross-platform app development:\nThe team of developers at Quytech uses Xamarin to create a cross-platform app codebase that is easy to share across different platforms. It also offers complete hardware support to enable high-performance app development.Ionic\nIt is an open-source SDK that allows our developers to build performant, user-friendly, and interactive cross-platform mobile applications with a native-like look and feel by integrating different plugins.React Native\nLeveraging React Native, our skilled and experienced developers develop flexible and scalable cross-platform mobile applications with an engaging and rich user interface and advanced features.Flutter\nQuytech’s team of developers utilizes Flutter to facilitate faster and more seamless cross-platform app development with its built-in cross-platform app builder tool and several user interface components.\nQuytech’s expert and skilled developers follow React’s component-based approach and frameworks like React Native and Electron to build cross-platform apps’ front end with complete flexibility and customization.Angular\nOur professional developers make the most of the Angular framework that offers a wide range of features, tools, and TypeScript to develop high-performance cross-platform mobile apps.Vue\nOur developers utilize Vue’s simplicity, adaptability, versatility, and component-based architecture to create a reusable codebase and manage UI elements to make highly efficient and interactive cross-platform mobile apps.Flutter\nThe team of developers at Quytech brings the most out of Flutter’s strengths, the hot reload feature and pre-designed widgets and customization, to create visually appealing cross-platform applications.\nQuytech’s developers use MS-SQL, the popular Microsoft database, to develop interactive and feature-rich cross-app mobile apps that run seamlessly on Windows, macOS, Linux, and other platforms.MySQL\nWe make the most of MySQL’s strengths, such as performance, scalability, and ease of use, to design and develop top-performing and powerful cross-platform applications for Windows, Linux, and other platforms.PostgreSQL\nOur professional and experienced developers hold expertise in creating cross-platform mobile apps leveraging this open-source RDBMS that facilitates easy integration with cross-platform mobile applicationsMongoDB\nQuytech’s developers utilize MongoDB’s USPs, such as scalability and flexibility, and native drivers to build highly interactive and future-proof cross-platform mobile applications for multiple platforms and devices.Oracle\nOracle offers drivers and connectors to facilitate seamless communication between cross-platform apps and its database.

This agility makes sure an enterprise stays ahead in the dynamic business landscape.\nHere are some of the differences between native apps and cross-platform apps:\nNative mobile apps use programming languages such as Swift/Objective-C for iOS and Java/Kotlin for Android. On the other hand, cross-platform mobile apps use frameworks, such as React Native, Xamarin, Flutter, etc., to prepare a single codebase and then deploy it across different platforms.\nNative apps offer completely native UIs. Developers design the native apps’ UI considering the guidelines of specific platforms. On the contrary, cross platform apps share a single UI codebase, which may not reflect the native-like look and feel on all platforms.\nNative app development requires dedicated teams to build the app for Android, iOS, and Windows. It occupies resources and may also increase development time and costs. On the contrary, cross-platform apps allow a single team of developers to create a unified codebase, which minimizes development time and costs.\nNative apps leverage platform-specific features and capabilities, which enhances their performance. Cross-platform apps might have performance issues due to the involvement of various screen sizes, operating systems, and devices.\nCross-app mobile app development renders many benefits, like code reusability and low development time and costs. However, it also includes many challenges and some of them are as follows:Performance Optimization\nIt might be challenging to optimize the app’s performance across all platforms due to different device capabilities, screen sizes, device configurations, and operating systems. While frameworks like Flutter and React Native strive to offer a native-like performance, various complex tasks may not deliver desired results.Platform Limitations\nCross-platform frameworks aim to offer native device features, but they may not support all the latest functionalities of different platforms. Moreover, multiple platforms have different features and APIs, which may become a roadblock to successful cross-platform app development.Issues with Debugging and Testing\nAnother common challenge that developers face with the best cross-platform mobile application development is complex debugging and testing. It happens due to the involvement of multiple platforms, devices, screens, etc.UI/UX Limitations\nEnsuring a consistent and native-like UI/UX across different platforms is challenging. Multiple cross-platform frameworks provide built-in UI components; achieving pixel-perfect design while adhering to platform-specific requirements is a big challenge.Issues with the Codebase\nAs your business grows, you might need to add new features and functionalities to the app, which increases its complexity and size. A unified codebase may become intricate to manage at this complexity level.Learning Curve\nDevelopers with little experience may face a learning curve when working with unfamiliar languages, backend systems, databases, and frameworks. And not being able to provide them required training is another challenge linked to cross-platform app development.\nThe most viable solution to overcome all these challenges is to hire a reliable cross-platform mobile application development company with considerable experience in this domain.\nWhen hiring a cross-platform app development company, consider the following factors to make sure you select the right company for your project:Technical Expertise\nLook for a company with proven expertise in cross-platform app development technologies, such as frameworks, backend and frontend systems, testing tools, and platforms. Review their portfolio and explore their case studies to check the quality of their work and the type of projects they have delivered.Client Reviews and Testimonials\nLooking into client reviews and testimonials of a custom cross platform mobile application development company will help you to check its reputation and client satisfaction. Look for feedback that includes their development process, project management skills, and ability to deliver projects on time.Customization\nCustomization ensures the company develops your app according to your distinctive business requirements. It will target your business’s unique goals and the pain points you want to solve via the app.Communication and Project Management\nThe cross-platform development company should have means to establish effective communication and transparent project management. Ask if they provide regular updates on the project’s progress. Moreover, they should also be responsive to your concerns and questions.Development Cost\nDon’t forget to discuss your app’s scope, custom business needs, and budget with the app development company. Ask the company to share a detailed breakdown of the cost and inclusions in the package.Support and Maintenance\nCheck if the cross-platform mobile development company offers post-launch support and maintenance services. It is essential to regularly update the app with new features and functionalities and troubleshoot technical glitches that may occur after the launch.", "label": "No"}

{"text": "- Version: 1.0.3\n- Size: 8.79MB (apps2SD enabled)\n9 Innings: Pro Baseball 2011 features three different modes of play; exhibition, league, and homerun derby. The exhibition mode lets you play a quick 9 innings without worrying about your roster, player stats, etc. During homerun derby mode, you’ll get 5 “outs” to hit as many homeruns as possible (anything but a ball or a homerun is an out). You’ll earn points based on how far each ball goes and extra points for back-to-back homeruns. Each round has a points goal you’ll have to accrue in order to qualify for the next, more challenging round. Finally, in league mode you act as the owner and manager of your chosen team. Create lineups, adjust the starting rotation, and check up on your team’s record, ranking, and achievements.\nAs you play, you’ll find yourself earning points for many achievements e.g. a 4 batter hit streak or bunting to advance a runner. These points can then be spent to acquire new players, upgrade current players, etc. There are currently over 700+ MLB player profiles to choose from. Each player has their own card (just like collectible trading cards) with their image and detailed stats. Plus, with the points you earn, you can even buy “booster packs” to pull random player cards.\nIn terms of gameplay, the controls are quite simple to use. When you’re batting, just tap the screen to swing. Depending on the pitch, it might take you a little while to get the timing down. There are also graphics/buttons for bunting if you so choose. When the ball is in play, two on-screen buttons will appear allowing you to control the baserunners. When pitching, select the type of pitch to throw and then drag the ball to the specific location you’d like it to go. When the ball is in play, use the glove graphics over home-plate and first, second, and third base to direct your players’ throws.\n- Three playing modes: exhibition, league, and homerun derby\n- 700+ real MLB player profiles and full team rosters\n- Straightforward on-screen controls\nAreas for improvement:\n- Some rosters aren’t up-to-date for the 2011 season\n- Improve/smooth out graphics to enhance playability\nConclusion: A competitive, multi-feature baseball Android game reminiscent of 1990s style baseball video games.", "label": "No"}

{"text": "Master of Science\nGilliland, Jason A.\nPark-related research has gained much attention in recent years, yet not enough studies have focused on the inequity of park accessibility and quality. These are crucial elements that influence youth’s park use, which in turn influence their physical, mental, and social development. Existing literature uses park size as the supply level to examine park accessibility but fails to consider any other park characteristics (e.g., amenities, general condition). This research developed youth-informed and quality-aware measures to consider the influence on park attraction by its quality and size rather than size only. This was implemented by consulting a youth advisory council to determine the relative importance of park features and the travel threshold used in the analysis to better understand park attractiveness for youth. Then, an accessibility score for each population unit is computed to represent the level of park accessibility, using the two-step floating catchment area (2SFCA) method. The proposed method can better differentiate higher accessibility from lower accessibility, providing more detailed accessibility results. The social equity analysis results indicated that median household income was not strongly correlated with the level of park accessibility. The research outcomes bring critical insights for park planners to improve park and recreational facilities in the city and promote healthy living among youth.\nSummary for Lay Audience\nYouth are spending less time playing outdoors and connecting with nature. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), 3 in 4 adolescents worldwide do not meet the global recommendations on physical activity for health (Bull et al., 2020). It is widely acknowledged that parks and recreation facilities provide space for outdoor activities, build connections with nature, and promote physical activities for youth. Given the context, there’s a clear need in developing more park research to better understand park accessibility in relation to youth. However, research has confirmed that residents in modern cities have unequal access to parks and recreation facilities. This makes youth a particularly vulnerable age group that requires adequate access to quality parks as their physical, social, and cognitive developments are closely related to their exposure to green space.\nThe overarching goal of this thesis is to gain a better understanding of the provision, quality and spatial accessibility to urban parks using geospatial data in London, Ontario and Halifax, Nova Scotia, and further investigate whether and how spatial accessibility to parks are associated with socioeconomic factors. Focusing on the population under 19 years old, this thesis is part of a national park research project ParkSeek, which provided the park quality data. A scoring system is used to reflect park quality based on feature availability, and a weighting scheme is developed to incorporate youth perspectives on park quality. Combining those two procedures, a youth-weighted park quality score is developed to represent the overall quality of parks for youth. In previous park accessibility research, size is the most common variable used to reflect park attraction. However, size is not the only element that influences park visitation. The features, conditions and overall quality can all impact the attractiveness of a particular park. This thesis modifies the traditional methods of measuring park accessibility to consider not only park size but also park quality.\nMethodology developed in this study highlights the importance of quality in park accessibility research, as well as the significance of youth engagement. Findings of this research may provide insights into supporting positive youth development, building stronger communities, promoting social justice, and fostering more sustainable and inclusive urban environments.\nChang, Zhe, \"Developing Youth-informed and Quality-aware Spatial Accessibility Measures to Urban Parks Using a Survey-based 2SFCA Method in London, Ontario and Halifax, Nova Scotia\" (2023).

Rigid couplings are designed to provide a solid, non-flexible connection between two shafts, making them suitable for various types of shaft orientations.\nHorizontal Shaft Arrangements: In horizontal shaft arrangements, the two shafts are positioned parallel to the ground or at a slight incline. Rigid couplings are commonly used in horizontal setups as they efficiently transmit torque and maintain precise alignment between the shafts. The horizontal orientation allows gravity to aid in keeping the coupling elements securely in place.\nVertical Shaft Arrangements: In vertical shaft arrangements, the two shafts are positioned vertically, with one shaft above the other. This type of setup is often found in applications such as pumps, compressors, and some gearboxes. Rigid couplings can also be used in vertical shaft arrangements, but additional considerations must be taken into account:\n- Keyless Design: To accommodate the vertical orientation, some rigid couplings have a keyless design. Traditional keyed couplings may experience issues with keyway shear due to the force of gravity on the key, especially in overhung load situations.\n- Set Screw Tightening: When installing rigid couplings in vertical shaft arrangements, set screws must be tightened securely to prevent any axial movement during operation. Locking compound can also be used to provide additional security.\n- Thrust Load Considerations: Vertical shaft arrangements may generate thrust loads due to the weight of the equipment and components. Rigid couplings should be chosen or designed to handle these thrust loads to prevent axial displacement of the shafts.\nIt’s essential to select a rigid coupling that is suitable for the specific shaft orientation and operating conditions. Proper installation and alignment are critical for both horizontal and vertical shaft arrangements to ensure the rigid coupling’s optimal performance and reliability.\nUse of Rigid Couplings for Motor-to-Shaft and Shaft-to-Shaft Connections\nYes, rigid couplings can be used for both motor-to-shaft and shaft-to-shaft connections in mechanical systems. Rigid couplings are designed to provide a solid and non-flexible connection between two shafts. This characteristic makes them versatile for various applications, including motor-to-shaft and shaft-to-shaft connections.\n1. Motor-to-Shaft Connections: In motor-to-shaft connections, a rigid coupling is used to connect the output shaft of an electric motor to the driven shaft of a machine or equipment. This ensures direct power transmission without any flexibility. Motor-to-shaft connections are common in applications where the motor’s rotational motion needs to be transferred to the driven equipment with high precision and efficiency.\n2. Shaft-to-Shaft Connections: In shaft-to-shaft connections, a rigid coupling joins two shafts directly, providing a solid and immovable link between them. This is beneficial in applications where precise alignment and torque transmission are essential, such as in precision motion control systems or heavy-duty industrial machinery.\nRigid couplings are available in various designs, such as one-piece, two-piece, and split types, to accommodate different shaft arrangements. The type of rigid coupling used depends on the specific application and the shaft sizes to be connected.\nAdvantages of Using Rigid Couplings:\n– Zero backlash ensures accurate motion transfer and positioning.\n– Efficient power transmission without loss due to flexibility.\n– Minimal maintenance requirements due to their simple design.\n– High torque capacity suitable for heavy-duty applications.\n– Tolerance to misalignment (within design limits) enhances versatility.\n– Provides system stiffness, reducing the risk of resonance and vibration-related issues.\n– Suitable for high-speed applications.\n– Versatility for various industrial applications.\nWhether it’s connecting a motor to a driven shaft or joining two shafts together, rigid couplings offer reliability, precision, and efficiency, making them a popular choice in numerous mechanical systems.\nWhat is a Rigid Coupling and How Does it Work?\nA rigid coupling is a type of mechanical coupling used to connect two shafts together at their ends to transmit torque and rotational motion without any flexibility or misalignment accommodation. Unlike flexible couplings, rigid couplings do not allow for angular, parallel, or axial misalignment between the shafts. The main purpose of a rigid coupling is to provide a strong and solid connection between two shafts, ensuring precise and synchronous power transmission between them.\nStructure and Design:\nRigid couplings are typically made from durable materials such as steel, stainless steel, or aluminum, which can withstand high torque and load applications. The coupling consists of two halves, each with a cylindrical bore that fits tightly onto the respective shafts. The two halves are then fastened together using bolts or set screws to ensure a secure and rigid connection.\nThe working principle of a rigid coupling is straightforward. When the two shafts are aligned precisely and the coupling is securely fastened, any torque applied to one shaft gets directly transferred to the other shaft. The rigid coupling essentially makes the two shafts act as one continuous shaft, allowing for synchronous rotation without any relative movement or play between them.\nRigid couplings are commonly used in applications where precise alignment and torque transmission are essential. Some common applications of rigid couplings include:\n- High-precision machinery and equipment\n- Robotics and automation systems\n- Precision motion control systems\n- Machine tools\n- Shaft-driven pumps and compressors\nThe key advantages of using rigid couplings include:\n- High Torque Transmission: Rigid couplings can handle high torque and power transmission without any loss due to flexibility.\n- Precision: They provide accurate and synchronous rotation between the shafts, making them suitable for precise applications.\n- Simple Design: Rigid couplings have a simple design with minimal moving parts, making them easy to install and maintain.\n- Cost-Effective: Compared to some other coupling types, rigid couplings are generally more cost-effective.\nDespite their advantages, rigid couplings have certain limitations:\n- No Misalignment Compensation: Rigid couplings cannot accommodate any misalignment between the shafts, making precise alignment during installation crucial.\n- Transmits Vibrations: Since rigid couplings do not dampen vibrations, they can transmit vibrations and shocks from one shaft to the other.\n- Stress Concentration: In some applications, rigid couplings can create stress concentration at the ends of the shafts.\nIn summary, rigid couplings are ideal for applications that require precise alignment and high torque transmission. They offer a robust and straightforward solution for connecting shafts and ensuring synchronous power transmission without any flexibility or misalignment accommodation.\neditor by CX 2023-10-19", "label": "No"}

{"text": "Aftermarket Automotive Electronics Specialist Mods4cars has further improved the wiring adapter harness that comes with the SmartTOP controller offered for Volkswagen EOS. The new Ultra-Plug-and-Play adapter makes installing the kit even easier than before. “Using the new wiring harness installation has become extremely quick and easy. The 3M T-Tap connectors are no longer required.” explains PR-Manager Sven Tornow.\n“This means that anyone can now install our add-on kit quickly and easily and enjoy the added benefits of the SmartTOP module.“ Sven Tornow continues. With the kit installed, it is possible to control the top from the center console switch while driving at slow speeds of up to 44km/h (~28mph) and with one-touch convenience. The usual emergency stop to raise the top at the first sign of impending rainfall is no longer necessary.\nAdditionally the top can be raised or lowered from afar, using the original key fob remote. “On hot days our customers can drop the top while still approaching their car.” Sven Tornow explains. Likewise it is now possible to close the top of the parked car from the remote. In order to get these features, it is not necessary to modify the original fobs or the receiver system.\nThe SmartTOP Convertible Top Controller for the Volkswagen EOS comes with a lot of bonus features, all of which are programmable according to each user’s tastes. Windows and sunroof can be controlled from the remote. Locking and unlocking of the car can produce a brief audible signal. The hazard flashers can be activated during remote operation. It is also possible to reverse the direction of the console top switch.\nAnother nice feature is the ability to enable top operation with the hitch installed. A park-assist feature can lower the passenger mirror when shifting into reverse gear. The programmable extended mode allows a top operation to continue while the engine is being started or stopped. The entire module can be temporarily disabled while retaining all other user settings for when it is re-enabled later. With the new Ultra-Plug-and-Play wiring adapter the kit can eventually be removed without leaving any trace or damage.\nAll SmartTOP modules come equipped with a USB port. They can be configured or updated using a PC or Mac. Firmware updates as well as support software are available online, free of charge.\nSmartTOP kits are available for almost all popular brands and models: Alfa, Audi, Bentley, BMW, Ferrari, Ford, Infiniti, Jaguar, Lamborghini, Mazda, Mercedes-Benz, Mini, Nissan, Opel, Peugeot, Porsche, Renault, Volvo and VW.\nThe Add-On module for Volkswagen EOS retails for 269 Euros + tax.\nA product demonstration can be seen here:\nMods4cars was founded in 2002 with the idea to add a highly demanded feature to the otherwise almost perfect Porsche Boxster: Comfort One-Touch roof operation while driving at slow speeds. The resulting product offered not only that, but also allowed quick and easy installation by just swapping out a relay box, thus leaving no traces and no permanent changes on the vehicle. The first SmartTOP roof controller was born.\nThe success of their first products in Germany and Europe prompted them in late 2004 to move operations to the USA, to be able to serve the American market as well as all other English speaking countries such as Australia, UK and South Africa from one central location. Their business has grown to a full-fledged international corporation with an office in Las Vegas and a full line of innovative products as well as distributors and installation partners all over the globe.\nBeing highly specialized in the development and distribution of aftermarket roof- and comfort controllers since 2002 allows them to offer an unsurpassed level of competence and product quality. Their main goal is optimization of each individual product to a maximum in compatibility, usability and intuitive operation. They put greatest effort into development and quality checks of all their products to achieve this goal and meet all expectations of their customers.\nThe extraordinary success of their products is also based on the great communication with their customers, which usually already starts for each new product during the development and prototyping phase.", "label": "No"}

All-dielectric means that the optical cable uses all-dielectric materials. Self-supporting means that the strengthening member of the optical cable itself can bear its own weight and external load. The all-dielectric self-supporting ADSS optical cable provides fast and economical transmission channels for power communication systems due to its unique structure, good insulation and high temperature resistance, and high tensile strength. ADSS fiber optical cable can be erected in the state of overhead power line without power failure, and the design, construction and maintenance are also more convenient, and it has been widely used in the built overhead power line systems. ADSS fiber optic cable can be connected to existing access points and related equipment without additional planning and engineering improvements, which can effectively reduce the deployment cost of the last mile of FTTH networks, maximizes the installation ease and enhance the accessibility to the fiber.\nADSS Fiber Optic Cable feature\nADSS Fiber Optic Cable Product\nThere are two kinds of sheaths for ADSS optical cable. When the line voltage is lower than 110KV, choose PE sheath. When the line voltage is higher than 110KV, choose AT sheath.\nThere are two structures of ADSS optical cable. In the case of small span, ADSS optical cable with uni-tube structure can be used. In the case of medium and large span, stranded ADSS optical cable can be selected.

It is widely used for different (outside plant) deployments.\nADSS cable can be used for applications ranging from short span (40-50 meter) distribution lines to long-span transmission lines (300-500 meter spans) to extraordinary spans required by some river canyon crossings exceeding 1,800 meters.\nSince it is a non-metallic optical cable, ADSS cable can be directly suspended on the overhead power pole and tower. It can be widely used on 220KV, 110KV, and 35KV voltage transmission lines, especially on established lines. It is a direct use of high voltage lines for the power sector.\nHigh-voltage power lines\nlightning prone area\nLong-span aerial installation\nyour trusted partner\nInnovation, Quality, Service and Responsibility\nYou ask, we answer\nUnlike traditional transmission cables that are supported by metal wires or poles, ADSS cables are made of optical fibers and are self-supporting, meaning they do not require any external support structure.\nThis makes them ideal for use in areas where it is difficult or impossible to install metal support structures, such as in wetlands or over water.\nThe minimum order quantity of fiber optic cable is 1km.

In the method, data on the movement of the vehicle and data on accident risks in the vehicle's surroundings are acquired, the acquired data are evaluated and assigned a specific accident risk category, and an alert message is output depending on the assigned accident risk category. The invention further relates to an associated driver assistance system and to a vehicle with such a driver assistance system.\nDescription of the Background Art\nDriver assistance systems or modules for such system, which support the driver of the vehicle during the task of driving, are being employed increasingly in vehicles. The driver assistance systems for this purpose comprise sensors in order to detect events in the vehicle's environment, its interior, or events generated by in-vehicle devices. The data produced by the sensors are evaluated and converted into signals, which support the driver during driving of the vehicle. The generated signals can result in the outputting of information or warnings. Further, the signals can also intervene directly in the driving process, for example, by activating the vehicle's brakes in a defined manner.\nMeanwhile, there are many driver assistance programs for accident risk detection, which are used in vehicles. These include, for example, a lane adherence assist or lane adherence support, adaptive cruise control (ACC), a collision radar, a device for automatic emergency braking, an anti-lock braking system, traction control, an electronic stability program, and a parking assist system.\nIf many driver assistance programs are used in a vehicle, the need arises for the most intuitively comprehensible presentation of the system outputs. With the growing number of driver assistance modules, the handling and reading or acquisition of program outputs are becoming increasingly more difficult.\nDE 10 2007 029 033 A1 describes a method for outputting warnings for a motor vehicle with a plurality of driver assistance systems. To enable a simple information assimilation for the driver, the warnings are divided into at least two different time criticality categories and displayed as a function of these. The outputting of the warnings occurs via the display of protection circles, which show different protection zones formed around a graphic representation of the vehicle. The individual protection circles correspond to the time criticality categories. Time-critical warnings are visualized by a protection circle lying farther to the inside and preferably depending on the time criticality signaled not only visually, but in addition haptically and/or acoustically.\nDE 102 44 205 A1, which corresponds to U.S. Pat. No. 7,515,056 and to U.S. Pat. No. 7,145,441, describes a method and apparatus for preventing collision of vehicles, in which motion parameters of the vehicle are detected by means of sensors. A failure-to-yield criterion and a collision risk criterion are derived from these, from which a risk level is ascertained. At a low risk, the driver can be made aware of the risk situation by optical and/or acoustic signals. In further escalation stages, in addition haptic signals can be output and the brakes and/or the steering can be prepared or in fact influenced for their imminent use.\nU.S. Pat. No. 7,579,942 B2 describes an apparatus for supporting the safe operation of a vehicle. In this case, a collision prediction can be generated by means of a plurality of sensor signals and a model. An alarm is output if a collision risk above a specific risk threshold is determined.\nSUMMARY OF THE INVENTION\nIt is the object of the present invention to provide a method for outputting alert messages of a driver assistance system and an associated driver assistance system, which enable simple information assimilation by the driver of the vehicle.\nIn an embodiment, the method of the invention is characterized in that a planned movement of the vehicle is derived from the detected movement of the vehicle, and it is checked whether a collision of the vehicle with another object will occur without a change in the planned movement of the vehicle. The manner of outputting the alert message is then carried out depending on the result of said collision check. The differentiated outputting of the alert message has the advantage that the driver can be informed in a simple manner whether the alert to be output refers only to a general risk, which may not occur at all, or whether the alert refers to an acutely imminent collision that will occur without intervention by the driver. The driver can be addressed even more selectively with the method of the invention, if his intervention, particularly a specific intervention such as, e.g., a full stop or evasive action, is definitely necessary.\nThe data on the vehicle's movement can comprise the vehicle's speed and direction. The movement can be assumed to be, for example, linearly constant depending on the situation. Further, longitudinal and lateral accelerations of the vehicle can also be considered. For example, immediately preceding changes in the speed magnitude and/or steering angle, e.g., a constant steering radius, are taken into account.\nThe data on accident risks can comprise position data and/or movement data of objects in the surroundings of the particular vehicle, which are compared with the data on the movement of the particular vehicle. From this conclusions can be drawn whether the vehicle is threatened with a collision with another object.\nAccording to an embodiment of the invention, two different types of accident risks can be differentiated, namely, imminent collisions and risk zones. Whereas in the case of imminent collisions, a collision is assumed on the part of the system if the planned movement of the vehicle is not changed; in the case of detected risk zones it is not assumed with certainty that a collision will occur.\nFor this purpose, not only is the detected accident risk itself analyzed on the system side but in addition the planned vehicle operation is also considered. This comprises in particular the detection of a normal situation, which takes into account the driver's reactions during the routine execution of the upcoming driving task. Thus, it can be derived from the determined course of the street and/or an entered navigation route whether, for example, a vehicle is entering a curve. It should be evaluated in particular in the collision check whether the driver is performing this driving task according to the normal situation. In this case in particular a linear movement of the vehicle is not to be assumed. The process can be carried out on the system side in a similar way, for example, during parking or during already started braking before a traffic light in that the planned driver reaction is considered according to a normal situation for the planned vehicle movement.\nFurther, the data on accident risks also comprise conditions that usually promote an accident and thus represent a general risk. For example, a fog bank is regarded as a latent risk for a collision, whereby, because of the reduced visibility, a collision cannot be predicted with certainty. Other risks are, e.g., wet or slippery conditions due to which the risk of the vehicle skidding or overturning can exist even without a collision obstacle.\nIn an embodiment of the method of the invention, it is provided that the manner of outputting the alert message is differentiated visually depending on the result of the collision check. A visual differentiation has the advantage that the alert message can be configured even in an early warning stage as a visual information output and the driver learns the differentiation feature(s) in a relatively noncritical situation. On the one hand, in this warning stage he usually has a rather high comprehension in order to perceive and memorize the differentiation depending on the collision check. On the other, it is also prevented that even in an early warning stage the driver is encumbered with rather obtrusive output modalities, e.g., acoustic signals.\nIn an embodiment of the method of the invention, it is provided that the alert message comprises a display of rings, particularly circular rings, and/or ring segments, particularly circular ring segments, which symbolize the vehicle surroundings. The manner of outputting the ring image is carried out here depending on the result of the collision check, whereby the number of rings and/or ring segments is independent of the result of the collision check. A ring image has established itself as an especially intuitively graspable “protective shield” metaphor, as has already been described in the above-cited DE 10 2007 029 033 A1. The retention of the circular ring structure independent of the result of the collision check supports the standardization of a plurality of warning systems and a high recognition level for other warning parameters, particularly different escalation stages. It is advantageous further, if in addition the entire screen splitting, contours, and scale of the circular ring image do not depend on the result of the collision check in order to increase the recognition level.\nIn an embodiment of the method of the invention, it is provided that the visual display of the alert message differs in color, brightness, degree of transparency, and/or its time pattern. Time patterns comprise, e.g., flashing, dimming, or a change in color. These features can be rapidly grasped, without the driver having to concentrate his attention explicitly on the visual part of the alert message. Especially intuitive is a color selection of a yellow shade if the collision check is negative, and a red shade if the collision check is positive.\nIn an embodiment of the method of the invention, it is provided that the length of time to reach a position of accident risk and/or to a point in time at which a change in vehicle movement is necessary to avoid a collision is determined and the accident risk is assigned a time criticality level depending on the determined length of time. The manner of outputting the alert message is then carried out depending on the assigned time criticality level. In particular, a ring image or circular ring image is selected for the visual part of the alert message and each time criticality level is assigned a corresponding ring or circular ring. The alert message is advantageously differentiated furthermore depending on the assigned time criticality level by haptic and/or acoustic features. The alert messages can be flexibly configured in this way for the individual time criticality levels.\nIn the assignment of the time criticality levels, in one embodiment of the method of the invention, in addition a normal reaction time is considered which is dependent on the particular driving situation and driving task. Said normal reaction time can be selected as relatively long, for example, for confusing or complex driving situations, e.g., in city traffic. It can be set as relatively short for simple driving situations or in driving tasks in which the driver expects specific collision objects, such as, for example, during parking. The configuration of the time criticality levels can be adjusted so that independent of the particular driving task averaged over many standard traffic situations a similar probability distribution shows that a specific time criticality level has been reached. In this way, the driver can assign the alert messages better to the actually existing risk.\nIn an embodiment of the method of the invention, it is provided that no acoustic and/or haptic differentiation of the outputting of the alert message occurs for a first time criticality level independent of the result of the collision check and that there is an acoustic and/or haptic differentiation of the output of the alert message for a second time criticality level depending on the result of the collision check. In particular, for the lowest time criticality level no haptic and/or acoustic signals are output, so that the alertness of the driver is not reduced in this regard over time. At higher time criticality levels, the alert messages for situations in which a collision is imminent without intervention by the driver, are differentiated from general risk situations without a definite collision by the provision of additional haptic and/or acoustic signals. In this regard, according to one embodiment, acoustic and/or haptic signals, which are output in general risk situations, will be more intense in the case of an imminent collision.\nIf the length of time until the position of the accident risk is reached falls below a critical threshold, optionally automatic vehicle control occurs, if it was determined by means of the collision check that without a change in the planned movement of the vehicle a collision of the vehicle with another object will occur and that the time interval for a driver's reaction is too short. The beginning of the automatic vehicle control is reported to the driver, so that he understands the prevention of the corresponding driving task. After the automatic vehicle control ends, the driver is again given back the driving task, i.e., complete control over the vehicle, about which he is also informed. The informing during the prevention and/or return of the driving task occurs advantageously visually, optionally with acoustic support, e.g., in the form of a plain text message.\nIn an embodiment of the method of the invention, a driving situation category is determined from the direction, speed, the steering, and/or transmission setting of the vehicle. The perspective of the vehicle surroundings symbolized by the ring image is changed in the visual outputting of the alert message with a change between two driving situation categories. The image is adjusted to the particular situation, without reducing the recognition level. Driving situation categories differ particularly between forward and reverse driving.\nIn an embodiment of the method of the invention, a parking or maneuvering process is detected and the ring image is changed to a plan view with a change in the parking or maneuvering process. This adjustment for a parking or maneuvering process is expedient to sensitize the driver to risks in all possible angle ranges in the vehicle surroundings.\nParticularly for parking and maneuvering processes with great steering wheel angles, concealment of the display area used thus far can occur. Further, a driving situation can require the driver to change his view direction. He needs to look backwards or to the side, for example. Therefore, it is provided in another embodiment that with a change between two driving situation categories the ring image of the vehicle surroundings is shown alternatively or in addition at a changed display position, e.g., on a further display disposed in the vehicle.\nThe driver assistance system of the invention comprises a plurality of sensors for acquiring data on the movement of the vehicle and data on accident risks in the vehicle's surroundings. The driver assistance system of the invention comprises further an evaluation unit with the aid of which the acquired data can be evaluated and assigned to a specific accident risk category, and an output device for outputting alert messages, particularly one or more displays, a loudspeaker, and haptic output output device. It comprises further a control unit which is connected to the evaluation unit and to the output device and which controls the output device in such a way that the alert messages can be output depending on the assigned accident risk category. The driver assistance system of the invention is characterized in that a planned movement of the vehicle can be derived by means of the evaluation unit from the detected movement of the vehicle and it is checked whether a collision of the vehicle with another object will occur without a change in the planned movement of the vehicle, and the output device can be controlled by the control unit in such a way that the manner of outputting the alert message is carried out depending on the result of said collision check. The driver assistance system of the invention is particularly suitable for carrying out the method of the invention. Therefore, it also has the advantages of the method of the invention.\nAccording to the invention, a vehicle is equipped with such a driver assistance system.\nFurther scope of applicability of the present invention will become apparent from the detailed description given hereinafter. However, it should be understood that the detailed description and specific examples, while indicating preferred embodiments of the invention, are given by way of illustration only, since various changes and modifications within the spirit and scope of the invention will become apparent to those skilled in the art from this detailed description.\nBRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS\nThe present invention will become more fully understood from the detailed description given hereinbelow and the accompanying drawings which are given by way of illustration only, and thus, are not limitive of the present invention, and wherein:\nFIG. 1 shows a view of the cockpit of a vehicle with a driver assistance system according to an exemplary embodiment of the invention;\nFIG. 2 shows schematically the basic structure of the driver assistance system shown in FIG. 1;\nFIG. 3 shows a flowchart of the method for operating a driver assistance system according to an exemplary embodiment of the method of the invention for outputting alert messages of a driver assistance system; and\nFIGS. 4-9 show visual displays of alert messages depending on the result of a collision check, the assigned time criticality level, and the driving situation category according to an exemplary embodiment of the method of the invention for outputting alert messages of a driver assistance system.\nA view of the cockpit of a vehicle 1 with a driver assistance system according to an exemplary embodiment of the invention is shown in FIG. 1. The driver assistance system uses combination display 2 of vehicle 1 to display alert messages visually, e.g., in form of circular ring images 20, as will be explained in still greater detail in conjunction with the method of the invention. The alert messages in this case can be shown on a freely programmable display area between round instruments 3. Further, a multifunction display 4 is arranged in the upper area of the center console on which the alert messages can also be displayed.\nTo differentiate the alert messages for the driver of vehicle 1 according to the risk situation and an associated accident risk category so that he is well informed or alerted as appropriate for the situation, without this being perceived as annoying, a number of other multimodal output device are provided in the cockpit of vehicle 1. A light rail 5 runs along the dashboard, e.g., at the point of contact with the front windshield; this is, for example, a light guide or a string of LED lights (LED=Light Emitting Diode), which can light up or flash in different colors and patterns according to the accident risk category. A loudspeaker or signal tone generator and different haptic device, e.g., a vibration motor in the steering wheel and on the foot pedals (not shown), are provided as further output device.\nThe schematic basic structure of the driver assistance system is shown in FIG. 2. The driver assistance system has a plurality of driver assistance devices. A control unit 7 receives data on accident risks in the vehicle's surroundings via distance sensors 9 and via a camera system 10. Distance sensors 9 are placed, for example, in a manner known per se in the front and rear bumpers of vehicle 1. Camera system 10 comprises, for example, an attachable camera module, which is placed in the area between the roof liner and front windshield. Data on the movement of vehicle 1 are received, on the one hand, via the engine control (not shown) and, on the other, are acquired from a GPS receiver 11 (GPS=Global Positioning System) and sent to control unit 7. General data on the surroundings of vehicle 1, e.g., in regard to bridges, tunnels, roadwork, or traffic jams, can also be received via GPS receiver 11. These data can be sent alternatively or in addition from a navigation system with a digital geographic map.\nAn evaluation unit 8 is integrated into control unit 7 in which the data acquired via distance sensors 9, camera system 10, and GPS receiver 11 are combined and evaluated. In this regard, individual accident risks are identified and assigned corresponding accident risk categories. In particular, the planned and probable movement of vehicle 1 is derived proceeding from the detected movement of vehicle 1 from the upcoming road section detected by sensors and by means of the stored navigation route. For this purpose, the spatial and time differences in the movement of vehicle 1 from a normal movement according to the navigation route are determined. A driver can be warned early on about blind curves, when he deviates from the ideal route. Further, it is checked whether a collision of vehicle 1 with another object will occur without a change in the planned movement of vehicle 1.\nControl unit 7 then generates the associated alert messages and controls different output device connected to control unit 7 to output the alert message, as will be explained in still greater detail hereafter in conjunction with the method of the invention.\nThe output device comprise combination display 2, multifunction display 4, and light rail 5 for the visual outputting of alert messages, which have already been described in regard to FIG. 1. Furthermore, a loudspeaker 6 or signal tone generator for the acoustic outputting of alert messages can be controlled via control unit 7.\nFurther, different haptic outputs of the alert messages can be generated via control unit 7. For this purpose, control unit 7 is connected to steering wheel 12, gas pedal 13, and brake system 14, particularly the brake pedal and brake hydraulic system. Haptic signals can be controlled by means of control unit 7 at steering wheel 12, e.g., as a slight shaking or vibration, in order to reach the driver with the alert message via this modality. The acceleration resistance of gas pedal 13 can be controlled by means of the control unit so that it is changeable. In addition, the brake pressure in the brake hydraulics can be increased by means of control unit 7 or brake system 14 can be controlled to bring about a full emergency stop.\nThe generic process of the method of the invention according to an exemplary embodiment will now be described with the use of a flowchart with respect to FIG. 3. The driver assistance system, for example, described with respect to FIGS. 1 and 2, can be used to carry out the method. The method is, for example, part of a permanently installed program of the driver assistance system. It is especially suitable to be used as an overall routine of an alert module for a number of different traffic alert programs and support programs for vehicle control.\nThe driver assistance program is initialized in process step 30. This occurs, for example, when the ignition key is inserted or the engine is started, so that the driver even at the start of driving profits from the overall concept of the alert module.\nA driving situation category is determined first in process step 31. For this purpose, evaluation unit 8 accesses different currently valid data for vehicle control. It evaluates in particular the speed, steering angle, and transmission setting of vehicle 1. A parking or maneuvering process, e.g., with engaged reverse gear and/or at low speed with an extreme and changing steering wheel angle, city driving, and highway driving, e.g., when a specific speed is exceeded, can be identified in this way. The driving situation category is stored as a parameter for the further program sequence.\nThe accident risk determination is carried out in process step 32. For this purpose, the received data on the surroundings of vehicle 1 are compared in evaluation unit 8 with the data on the movement of vehicle 1. In this regard, the data from the different distance sensors 9 and from camera system 10 can also be checked for consistency among each other. In particular, stationary or moving objects in the vehicle surroundings are identified in this way or the condition of the surroundings as a potential accident risk is determined. For example, fog, poor visibility, or a slippery road surface is determined in the direction in which vehicle 1 is traveling. It is determined in particular whether the view in an angle range is so poor that the road condition and/or objects in this direction can no longer be detected with sufficient certainty; i.e., it also cannot be determined whether or not a collision is impending.\nIn process steps 33 and 34, each identified potential accident risk is assigned an accident risk category by evaluation unit 8. In this regard, in process step 33 it is checked for each potential accident risk whether a collision of vehicle 1 with another object would occur without a change in the planned movement of vehicle 1, i.e., without braking or steering being performed by the driver or automatically. The category classification of accident risks distinguishes especially two types of accident risks: those in which a collision is definite or very likely without intervention in the vehicle control, therefore an alert should be given of a specific collision risk, and those where a collision is not definite, only a general risk alert should be given.\nIn process step 34, the length of time until the position of the accident risk is reached is determined for each potential accident risk. In the case that the position cannot be reached with certainty (i.e., that a collision or entry into the risk zone is not necessarily given), the length of time can be considered that passes until the shortest distance to the position of the accident risk is reached. Depending on the length of time thus determined, the accident risk is assigned one of three time criticality levels. In particular, it is also considered according to the accident risk whether vehicle 1 including the driver's reaction time can still be brought to a stop before the position of the accident risk.\nThe assignment of the time criticality levels can occur further as a function of the determined driving situation category. Thus, the driver will expect very specific accident risks, for example, during parking and possibly will react more quickly than in comparable situations in moving traffic. The determination of the length of time, however, occurs independent of the result with which the collision test was ended in process step 33.\nIn the case of highway driving, it proved to be a useful classification that the lowest time criticality level is achieved when the length of time is still greater than 3-10 seconds, e.g., 5 seconds. During this time period, the driver can still take up information without a great time pressure and handle it sensibly and responsibly. The upper limit can be established according to the situation or left open. In the latter case, the lowest time criticality level is reached when the potential accident risk was identified for the first time. The former case, particularly for highway driving with a low traffic volume, is a possible option for not utilizing the lowest time criticality level ineffectively. No advance warning would then be given in the case of a vehicle that is ahead on the horizon.\nIf this length of time is shorter, but is still above a second threshold, between 1.5 seconds and 3 seconds, e.g., at 2 seconds, the second time criticality level is reached. During this time period, the driver still has the option of acting responsibly, particularly if he previously had the opportunity to be informed or forewarned in the lowest alert level.\nIf this length of time is shorter still, but is still above a third threshold value between 0.5 seconds and 1.5 seconds, e.g., at 1 second, the third and thereby highest time criticality level is reached. During this time period, the driver usually has only the possibility of acting reflexively.\nIf the driver still does not intervene, from the system side the driver can be temporarily released, completely or partially, from his driving task. E.g., an automatic full stop is executed.\nIn process step 35, finally a consolidation of results is performed in which the alert message to be output is based on the most critical accident risk. If a number of potential accident risks are determined, it should be prevented that the driver of vehicle 1 is overwhelmed with an abundance of signals. The selection of the most critical accident risk depending on the embodiment can be based on the time criticality or on the result of the collision check. Depending on the driving situation category, it can be expedient to give the driver a priority alert of a time-critical risk, e.g., imminent driving into a fog bank, or of a collision object still far ahead, e.g., tail end of a traffic jam.\nIn process step 36, finally an alert message is provided depending on the assigned accident risk category. The manner of providing the alert message depends on the result of the collision check, particularly depending on whether the collision check is positive or negative during the consolidation of the results in process step 35 in the case of the most critical accident risk. To this end, control unit 7 controls one or more output device, i.e., the display areas of combination display 2 and multifunction display 4, light rail 5, loudspeaker 6, or the haptic device in steering wheel 12, gas pedal 13, and braking system 14.\nThe method is continued iteratively, whereby data on the surroundings of vehicle 1 and data on the movement of vehicle 1 are determined continuously according to process step 32. The determination of driving situation category 31 may optionally not be included in the iterative process, but only considered when certain criteria trigger a corresponding event. For example, going into reverse is such an event, as a result of which a triggering signal is sent to control unit 7 in order to change to the driving situation category “parking/maneuvering.”\nThe visual outputs of alert messages depending on the result of the collision check, the assigned time criticality level, and the driving situation category are shown in FIGS. 4 to 9. The provision of the alert messages is further also differentiated acoustically and haptically, particularly depending on the result of the collision check and the assigned time criticality level.\nIn order to provide the driver with a standardized presentation of a plurality of driver assistance programs, a basic type of the visual alert message is provided independent of the particular driving situation category. The basic type is based on an intuitively perceptible circular ring image 20 as a so-called “protective shield” metaphor, which symbolizes the vehicle surroundings. Each time criticality level is assigned a circular ring which is divided into segments. The segment division can occur according to angle ranges detectable by single distance sensors 9 or camera system 10. In the shown case, there are four 90° sectors for a warning direction forward, to the back, to the right, and to the left.\nDepending on the achieved time criticality level, the corresponding circular ring segments 21A-21G are visually emphasized. The number of shown circular rings is independent of the collision check result. Three circular rings are used for all images in order to leave no doubt for the driver as to the escalation phase of the system.\nSituations during highway driving are shown in FIGS. 4-8. Circular ring image 20 is selected as a perspective view from the bird's eye perspective in the direction of travel and circular ring image 20 is shown on combination display 2. For this driving situation category, the back circular ring segments in the vicinity of the vehicle rear are not shown. The perspective can be changed optionally as a function of the vehicle speed. The perspective can be selected, flatter for highway driving than for city driving, for example.\nIn FIG. 4 the evaluation provides the data in vehicle 1 that there is an accident risk ahead. As soon as the condition for the first time criticality level is reached, circular ring segment 21A is visually emphasized. The background is shown in a color 22A, for example, in a pale gray shade. Furthermore, information on the upcoming accident risk can be displayed. In this stage, it is assumed that the driver can still visualize the situation without time pressure. At this stage, this can still be any possible accident risk. An acoustic and haptic outputting of the alert message does not occur.\nProceeding from FIG. 4, vehicle 1 in FIG. 5 has come closer to the risk zone and the condition for the second time criticality level is reached. The collision check is negative, i.e., even without a change in the movement of vehicle 1 a collision is not certain. Evasive action or braking is not necessary. The accident risk is, e.g., a hazardous stretch of road, e.g., a frozen-over section of a bridge, a section of roadwork, or a fog bank. Circular ring segment 21B is now visually emphasized in addition to circular ring segment 21A. Because there is no specific risk of a collision, but only a general risk, the color 22B, e.g., yellow, is now selected, for the background. The driver intuitively connects a general risk alert with this. In addition to the display on combination display 2, light rail 5 is illuminated in yellow (not shown). An acoustic and haptic outputting of the alert message does not occur.\nAlternatively to FIG. 5, the collision check according to the situation shown in FIG. 6 is positive this time, i.e., a collision will definitely occur without a change in the movement of vehicle 1. The accident risk is, e.g., a broken-down vehicle or a tail end of a traffic jam. In order to make the driver aware of the need for evasive action or to prepare him for braking, not only is the circular ring segment 21B visually emphasized, but a signal color 22C, e.g., red, is additionally selected for the background. The driver intuitively connects a real risk with this. In addition to the display on combination display 2, light rail 5 is illuminated in red (not shown) and a single chime signal is output via loudspeaker 6. The chime signal is to warn the driver, on the one hand, but on the other, it is to be so unobtrusive that a reflexive reaction by the driver, which is not yet needed at this point in time, is avoided.\nIn FIG. 7, a situation is shown in which the condition for the third time criticality level was reached and the collision check is negative. This situation can have arisen from the situation shown in FIG. 5, in that the vehicle has come closer to the hazardous section of road. Alternatively, this situation can also have arisen from the situation shown in FIG. 6, in that the driver, e.g., has successfully taken an early evasive action, so that now he is no longer on a collision course with the broken-down vehicle. Circular ring segment 21C is now emphasized visually in addition to circular ring segment 21A and 21B. Because this is again only a general risk, the color 22B is again selected for the background. The illumination on light rail 5 is increased in brightness and begins to flash, in order to make the driver realize the physically close risk (not shown). An acoustic outputting of the alert message does not occur. It can be provided optionally, however, to warn the driver haptically to the effect that gas pedal 13 is acted upon by an increased counterpressure. The driver is reminded thereby that a speed reduction in the increased risk zone can generally reduce the accident risk and also the severity of the accident.\nAlternatively to FIG. 7, according to the situation shown in FIG. 8, the collision check is again positive, i.e., that a collision will definitely occur without a change in the movement of vehicle 1. In order to now make the driver aware of the last possibility to begin taking evasive action or braking himself, not only is circular ring segment 21C visually emphasized and the signal color 22C selected for the background, but furthermore the illumination of light rail 5 is intensified (not shown) and a 2 kHz warning sound is output via loudspeaker 6. In addition, the alert message is output haptically in that steering wheel 12 is caused to vibrate slightly and the brake pressure in braking system 14 is increased.\nInstead of the visual differentiation or in addition to the visual differentiation by the different background colors, in particular the color, brightness, and/or the degree of transparency of the circular ring segments can also be different, depending on the result of the collision check.\nA situation during a parking or maneuvering process is shown in FIG. 9. At the end of a trip, it is detected, for example, that the vehicle has been stopped. Thereupon, the driving situation category is determined again and circular ring image 20 is changed from the perspective view to a plan view. In this way, the driver is informed that now accident risks from all directions are to be increasingly expected. In the shown case, reversing was engaged and an accident risk in the back sector of the vehicle is determined. Depending on which time criticality level is assigned, circular ring segments 21D-21F are visually emphasized. Depending on the result of the collision check, the outputting of the alert message is differentiated. In the case of a positive collision check, in addition to the visual outputting of the alert message, an acoustic signal is output via loudspeaker 6.\nDuring a parking or maneuvering process, circular ring image 20 is shown not only on combination display 2, but also automatically on multifunction display 4 and optionally on other displays. This assures that in case the view of combination display 2 is blocked by inconvenient steering wheel angles, the driver can read circular ring image 20 in another position.\nThe invention being thus described, it will be obvious that the same may be varied in many ways. Such variations are not to be regarded as a departure from the spirit and scope of the invention, and all such modifications as would be obvious to one skilled in the art are to be included within the scope of the following claims.", "label": "No"}
{"text": "Shooting in S-Log is one of the most common traits of achieving a cinematic look. Generally, enabling this mode lets you take advantage of the full dynamic range of your camera whether it’s a Red Dragon, Sony FS-7, Arri Alexa, Canon C300, Sony A7s or any other camera capable of shooting Log. One of the biggest drawbacks in this particular situation, however, is that inevitably you have to apply a look-up table (LUT) to your footage or, at least, do some basic colour adjustments in order to be able to display the images accurately in Rec.709 colour space on your production monitor.\nIn terms of workflow, there are a couple of options you have when dealing with Log recording. You can either import and edit your clips directly in DaVinci Resolve, or you can do some initial colour grading of the footage, generate a custom 3D LUT and apply it in your NLE of choice.\nHere’s a quick tutorial produced by Make Your Media that demonstrates how to apply a custom look-up table in Premiere Pro CC.\nThe beauty of using look-up tables is that you don’t have to create a separate one for each clip. This is great because it allows you to create a particular look that you can apply very quickly eliminating the necessity to render all of the clips after applying the initial colour corrections. Adjusting S-Curves, brightness, contrast and colour saturation of your clips is a good place to start. After you get rid of the flat and washed out look of your footage, you can export a custom table from DaVinci Resolve.\nThankfully, Resolve makes it really easy to create a LUT. All you have to do is to color-grade your shot as you normally would, and then right-click on the thumbnail of your file, and click on Generate 3D LUT.\nOpen your S-Log clips in Premiere Pro, navigate to the Effects Panel and type Lumetri. Drag and drop the Lumetri effect onto your clip. In the window, you need to locate and pick the LUT you’ve just created.\nAlternatively, you can add an Adjustment Layer on top of your clips and drop the Lumetri Effect there instead. This will save you the effort to add the look-up table every time you add a new clip on your timeline.\nEither way, when the effect is applied, you should be able to see the same stylised look you’ve got in DaVinci Resolve. Now you can continue with further editing your clips.\nUtilising custom LUTs is a true time-saving technique, as this is one of the most efficient ways to get the most tonal range out of the sensor of your camera, thus achieving a truly cinematic look without compromising on pre-visualisation of your footage while maintaining its proper exposure and colours throughout the edit.\n[source: Make Your Media]\nClaim your copy of DAVINCI RESOLVE - SIMPLIFIED COURSE with 50% off!

{"text": "For just over a decade, I’ve been working entirely remotely. Some key personal benefits have been the lack of an hour-long drive to the office and back, plenty of cost savings due to that lack of a commute, reduced distractions, and an improved work-life balance. I’ve worked with colleagues and clients from across the world, exposing me to diverse perspectives and opportunities for professional growth.\nFor the majority of that time, one thing has been missing in implementing remote work: those key watercooler moments that spark creative ideas and solutions to problems. But no longer. Rubber duck debugging is excellent, but bouncing ideas off a colleague without needing to schedule a meeting can be invaluable. Plenty of teams do all-hands sessions, but certain personality types dominate the discussion in those meetings.\nPixar’s building was famously designed with an open floor plan and common areas, such as a central atrium, a cafe, and a screening room, intended to encourage chance encounters and informal conversations among employees. The aim was to create a space to facilitate the sharing of ideas and foster a sense of community and collaboration among the team.\nHow can we help promote this type of creativity and collaboration online?\nFor the past decade, the answer has been text-based communication. A lot of teams followed a progression that started from IRC, which is still near and dear to my heart, then moved to the now defunct HipChat, and from there, most people moved to Slack or Teams. Some brave souls even transitioned into Discord, used primarily by gamers but quickly picking up steam in the business world.\nAt first, these communication platforms offered only text-based communication, and you would bolt on meetings through Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, or Zoom. As the platforms evolved, they added support for video and voice calls, and plenty of teams implemented “team rooms” that you could drop into for collaboration. Still, these solutions have yet to help provide a mechanism for those chance watercooler moments.\nAt Opreto, we have a RocketChat instance for text-based communication. But, we have been experimenting with Spatial Audio based applications for increased collaboration and those hard-to-create watercooler moments. After testing some applications, we finally landed on Kumospace.\nOur Kumo allows us to create a layout like in an actual office, with shared spaces and personal offices that you can customize. You only hear the audio of people in your audio zone based on either proximity or the room you’re currently in. You can move throughout the layout, dropping in and out of different conversation zones as needed. Of course, you can go into a ‘head down’ mode, where nobody can interrupt you, or you can close the door to your office.\nBut has it created those watercooler moments?\nKumo has been a game-changer for our team, successfully increasing the watercooler moments that are so important to us. Since implementing Kumospace, we’ve seen a marked increase in the frequency of chance encounters, leading to more innovative ideas and solutions. Our team has been so impressed with the platform that we’ve moved most of our meetings onto it.\nVirtual Office platforms offer an exciting new way to build community and foster creativity. As a fully remote company, exploring new tools and strategies for promoting collaboration and innovation among remote teams is essential. I’m excited to see how this technology will continue to evolve and transform how we work, and these applications will play a significant role in shaping how we work.", "label": "No"}

{"text": "We offer tailored battery solutions for both off-grid and grid tied solutions to suit your individual requirements.\nBattery technology and the range of solutions’ available have been evolving rapidly in recent years. The development of Lithium-ion technology presents significant increases in performance, longevity and efficiency over conventional battery technology.\nIntegrating a battery facility into a Solar system is an effective way to maximise the benefit from your Solar generated energy because it allows the home owner to capture surplus daytime generated that is not immediately used by the home, which would otherwise be exported for a credit. Because the value of an exported kWh of energy to the grid is significantly less than what its costs to purchase back that same kWh from the Grid in non-productive evening hours, this is the best way to maximise the financial return from your investment in Solar. In many cases the most important benefit is to provide an emergency power supply in the event of a Grid failure. All of which provide a significant benefit to the home owner.\nAdding batteries to a system incurs extra investment, however they are steadily becoming more cost effective and now offer a greater return on investment. This is due to a shift away from conventional lead-acid and Gel technology to the significantly greater performance properties of lithium-ion technology (ten-year warranty in most cases), and higher yield of energy from new technology have made battery investment a more viable proposition.\nThere are now a range of scalable battery solutions’ available. These are modular solutions that allow the home owner to invest in a modest size battery facility. This flexibility enables you to test the return on investment before committing to larger system, or simply to spread the capital investment over a period of time. This may also occur for example, if your average daytime consumption decreases, or if you choose to expand the size the rooftop array, thereby generating more surplus energy.\nMany of our clients choose to future proof for battery integration at a later date by investing in a Hybrid inverter that has extra functionality above a normal String Inverter to manage a battery facility, so that they have the option to integrate batteries when they choose to do so.", "label": "No"}

This is beyond a \"springy\" floor and into a dangerous floor, especially with heavy tiles on top of it as well. Floors are usually supported with 2x8 or even 2x10 joists. The picture shows just how much less support you get from a flat 2x4 than from a 2x8 on edge. What you can't see in a photo is how much the flat 2x4 springs while the 2x8 on edge does not. Something that fulfills the requirements of the code span tables must be put under this strange floor, or the entire floor riped out and rebuilt right. (Some engineered wood floor joists could give you the same strength with less depth than the 2x8s.) An important detail is that the joists themselves must be supported by something that will carry the weight down to the walls of the foundation, or at least to the floor of the basement.

{"text": "An artist Audrey Flack created a painting in 1987, Wheel of Fortune, that is an artwork that puts out the presence of death and tarot cards to create a message of that fate is apart of the cycle of life that is all played out by chance (page 16). The artist attended the Cooper Union to study art and years later she was recruited by an artist. Flack graduated from Yale University, and while attending that university she mainly focused on doing abstract expressionist. Flack was the first to project a photo into a painting called photorealism painting, she started a movement. Other styles of artwork she worked with are graphic realism, new realms, and sculptures. This painting is also referenced as, What Goes Around, as another title for it …show more content…\nOne of the most important elements in Wheel of Fortune is the combination of horizontal, diagonal, and vertical lines. It is the repetition and combination of the three different types of lines that molds everything in the painting into the pattern of a wheel, a symbolic image of the piece. There is also an important and implied line in the piece that is the line of sight that skull has when looking at itself in the mirror directly across from it. Color is a very important element of design displayed in this painting. There are many different hues of what appears to be different high-key colors in the painting that are used to give it the appearance of reality, and the striking detail that Flack achieved using the colors definitely identifies the artwork as being realistic. The shapes in Wheel of Fortune are mostly organic, as they are mostly rounded, but there are some geometric and rectilinear shapes such as the square dice. It is through the shapes and colors in the painting that realistic textures such as that of the skull's teeth are able to be seen. Many of the principles of design are also seen in Wheel of Fortune. Both variety and unity are displayed; variety in the different objects that are in the \"wheel\" and unity through the color scheme. Rhythm and direction of the painting are shown in the \"wheel\", and how the lines move from\nAudrey Flack’s Wheel of Fortune is a perfect example of the balance that artists have to find between unity and variety. At first glimpse, it seems as though Flack has merely painted many random objects. However, if the viewer goes beyond a quick glance and spends time closely examining the painting, connections can be made to help understand the vanity of life. The meaning behind Wheel of Fortune brings unity to this otherwise unstructured painting.\nThe element of art being most emphasized is color. There is a contrast in the artwork in the negative, The wall has cool and high key tones which contrast with the Egyptians and food that has warm and neutral colors. Although the artwork is not symmetrical, the light green color shown in the small details such as the carvings on the wall, necklaces, and food contribute a balance of colors within the artwork. In the artwork, there is a variation of curved lines and shapes that also bring the piece together. For examples, the lines are curvacious on the elbows, shoulders, and necklaces of the Egyptians and the objects around them. There are rhythm and pattern shown through the lines and shapes because most of the art piece has a bulbous form like the rounding of the shoulders or the circular shape of the heads. The art piece also seems to be scratchy because of the chips in the stone and the edges of the stone have faded limestone. The two men sitting and facing each other have a contrast of color to the rest of the art piece making them emerge into a more noticeable figure than the rest.\nEvery painter has a certain style of painting, whether it's intentional to paint abstract or unintentional to paint as a modernist. I analyzed Abigail Kuchar’s artwork. She is an artist at Western Washington University. Currently, she is enrolled as a student and working on her Bachelor of Fine Arts. Recently, she exhibited her work in a Symbiotic Qualia, Western Gallery (group BFA Thesis Exhibition). Her ideas on visuals are very unique as compare to another artist. Her work is heavily influenced by reoccurring natural forms and patterns, representing, the specific shapes that have been successful in a variety of different applications. For example, the formation of bubbles, lichen, barnacles, anemones, spores, pollen, and seed pods, all have similar compositions. By creating work that includes these forms, the viewer is presented with something unusual, but vaguely familiar. Her material used in the artwork is environment-friendly.\nEver since the late 1990s Cari Casper-Bassler, Rob Thornberry, and Dan Krause have been a positive and productive teachers in the Belleville West Art Department. Each sharing load of teaching Photography, Ceramics, Intro To Graphic Arts, Graphic Design, and Painting. Those who are apart of the art community know very well what each teacher teaches, However a sudden change this year is shaking things up and leaving many students confused.\nIn this painting, two visual elements stand out over all the rest. These elements are that of color and texture. Color in art is an element that has to be phenomenal in order to get recognition and true appreciation from the viewers. In this painting, the colors are rich, vivacious and standout as dark, but bold representations of the uniqueness of it all. The use of brown and yellow and green and grey and white all come together in a harmony of color and unity. As for the texture in the painting, it is that of brisk and roughness that is nature. The sharp edges of the bucks rack and the cold, rough edges of the dead tree show\nThe primary focus of this section is to explain the “act of painting.” Flack begins her book with notes on the creative process and what it means to be an artist. Everything from the perception of color to confronting a blank canvas is addressed in this section. Audrey Flack briefly touches on the spiritual\nThe value of color in every object is presented with different shades of light and darkness to present both texture and how light is played in the piece. For example Hede uses different shades of a color on the table cloth to show both texture and chiaroscuro. The texture painted on the bronze tableware show that its patterned using metal art such as filigree, and cloisonné.\nLots of thick and many thin lines that are connected with no division. The outline of objects and people are a lighter tone to represent the shadows. Many curvy lines to show the figures of the women in the room by their strong stands with the pool table waiting for their turns to go. There are many shapes in present but the one that was used the most was the rectangle and circle. I feel as if hatching played a huge role in the drawing just by looking real close at the characters’ clothes and the details on their arms. Nothing in the painting really stood out so they didn’t put the focus on one specific thing, which makes you get an eye full at one time. The use of color ranges from the primary to the secondary colors and that is also low in the saturation as well. The painting is polychromatic because there was a lot of different colors used throughout the painting. It’s hard for me to get a texture feel of this painting because it seems more symbolic than a statement or the people seem more like a documentation of people at a certain time and\nThe two principles of design that I see in this artwork are unity and variety. The repetition of the plank boards give unity to the room, repeating the shape and colors gives it balance. All\nLiz Larner creates art that has a presence and that shows instability. Her art is influenced by poetics. This is shown through the overlap in some sculptures as well as breakage in others. The art that she produces gives a sense of flow and completeness. Using instability as part of her work is something that brings a sense of change to her work as well as almost never using the same techniques. Her relation of her art work to real life shows her beliefs in the balance of reality and illusion.\nOne very significant element is the contrast in color, at the center, toward the right there are bright, warm colors such as, oranges, pinks, and yellows. Around that, there are cooler colors for example, blacks, blues, and purples. There is also a line that divides the artwork in half, separating the sky from water and land below. Some wavy lines appear on the water, land and clouds also some straight and wavy\nThroughout our tour it had been mentioned repeatedly that Olana is a masterful “three dimensional painting” by Frederic Church. Initially, this sounded like a cliché and unimaginative way to describe the grandeur of the house, until I understood how true the statement really was. In actuality, the description was not only directed towards the ornate home, but instead referred to the entirety of the historic site, which includes the 250 acres of surrounding land. What allowed me to understand the validity of the comment was knowing that in the process of building his home Church planted thousands of trees onto his estate and even carefully designed and created the lake for the purpose of beautifying the land. In other words, not only the house, but\nThe artwork that I did was by an artist named Sue Andrew. Sue makes paintings of beautiful Paraguayan landscapes and tropical scenes. Her artwork has won many awards and she has sold some of her artwork. Her paintings include portraits and landscapes. The painting that I remade was inspired by the trip the Sue took to Paraguay, it shows her sense of the country and how she believes that Paraguay is magical. The painting is very colorful and captures the true image of Paraguay and how beautiful the place is. I chose this painting because I thought that all of Sue’s paintings were very imaginative and creative. Sue’s paintings were very different than the other paraguayan paintings.\nAudrey Flack emerged in the late 1960s and is best known for pioneering the art genre of photorealism. During this time period photorealism was looked down upon and heavily criticised by artists which lead to the isolation of Flack for her contribution to the movement. Flack painted her first portrait based on a photograph, imitating its colours and appearance while her paintings concentrated on highly emotional social and political themes. These were both cultural and social influences, seen most famously in her painting ‘Marilyn Monroe’. Consistent through Flack’s career is her emphasis on symbolism in which she tries to make her work “universal,” something that all audiences can relate to with many of her photographs coming from documentary", "label": "No"}

{"text": "To master in HTML, you have to understand the meaning of HTML tags and the way it function. If you’re not aware of HTML tags it is impossible to make an online page. Every HTML document is structured by tags.\nFirst, do you know what HTML is? So HTML is ” Hypertext Markup Language “.\nHTML is not a complicated programming language. It is a language used for creating web pages using text. HTML tags are like keywords that define how a web browser will format and display the content. With the help of tags,\nEvery website webpage is an HTML document or file. Although it’s simply a text document, it is a file. However, the contents of the file comprise HTML tags. It is also required to save using the file extension .html or .htm.\nWhat is HTML Tags? | HTML Tags Working?\nHTML tags are similar to keywords, or hidden keywords. The web browser must be able to determine how it displays the contents. The majority of tags comprise three primary components that are open tags and a center content and close tag.\nFor instance, the start tag is the beginning of the tag. The content is there… along with the closing tag. By using HTML tags web browsers can differentiate between HTML content and standard content.\n<body> This is just an example of the body tag </body>\nNote, Open tags <>are from less than and greater than a symbol. And the close tag\n</>is a forward-slash between the less than and greater than symbols\nThe close tag contains the same text as the open tag, but with an additional forward-slash (/) character. You can interpret it as the “end” or “close” character.\nEach HTML file contains the required valid (valid) tag so that the web browser can understand it, and display it correctly. But there are some tags that do not have a closing tag, they are also called empty tags.\nHTML is the use of tags for its syntax. Below is an HTML document code, which has all the required tags. You copy the code below. And paste it in your HTML code editor, and save the web page as tutorial.html.\n<html> <head> <title>Tutorial</title> </head> <body> This is where website content happens! www.topfaida.com </body> </html>\nIf you are searching for the best code editor for web development then watch this video:\nThis is a root tag, which defines the HTML document.\n</html>tag and ends with tag.

The HTML5 standard doesn’t require lowercase tags, but I recommend you try using lowercase.\nDon’t forget the end tag\nThere are some HTML tags that the web browser displays correctly even without the end tag. Because some closing tags are considered optional. For example, the paragraph\nCopy the code below and run it:\n<html> <body> <p>This is a HTML paragraph <p>Tutorial in Hindi </body> </html>\nAfter saving this code in an HTML document, when viewing in a web browser.

The above chart is everything I personally bought for the car and how much it ran me at the time. For anyone doing their own B284R/LP9 rebuild, I think this chart should be a decent reflection of what you’ll be looking at.\nNow, granted, I opted for almost new OEM everything. You could def save some money there, and some components I only bought ’cause I broke the original lol. On the other hand, I didn’t buy some parts I could’ve (such as pistons, thermostat housing, etc.) and I didn’t add everything I did buy (such as fluids, new battery, not engine stuff). So with those two points, maybe it levels out.\nI also added tool costs, as for me personally, it was somewhat significant. But I imagine that’ll be a nonissue for most people rebuilding an engine (unlike me lol). I also bought some extraneous stuff: like the gold Mishimoto intercooler was 100% not required ?.\nIt was definitely a “fun” project for me (though I wanted to push the car off a bridge many times). I had to do a lot of research and compiling during the process. And this is that. Hopefully, this chart comes in handy for anyone also rebuilding their engine in the future ??.

They had already bought a starter kit QA0011, and the LR Device it includes had simply convinced the teachers.\" The ifm Board of Directors have decided that ifm will provide the college with free components. On 4 March 2019, the components were handed over officially by Rainer Fuchs and Stefan Lachenmayer, Sales Engineer Applications ifm Vertrieb Bavaria.\n\"We have provided each workstation with an LR Device licence to show how easy it is to set parameters via IO-Link through the PLC\", says Rainer Fuchs. \"Different from the starter kit, we have chosen the AL1300, a Dataline device, for the IO-Link master. This makes it possible to use the Y path PLC / cloud.\" The reason: The goal of the class is to integrate both IO-Link into the PLC work and to gather data via JSON using a Raspberry PI and to store it in a database.\nWith regard to sensors, the following devices have been chosen:\n- Photoelectric distance sensor O5D150 since it is also included in the starter kit and because it is very easy to create IO-Link events with it.\n- Temperature sensor TV7105 since it is already equipped with the smart sensor profile for measuring sensors V2.\n- Inductive sensor IG6616 to show how devices that so far could only switch can become measuring devices.\nAccording to the motto \"ifm - close to you\", \"we have decided to also supply the cables required for sensor connection, voltage supply and network connection\", said Rainer Fuchs.\nClick here for more information.", "label": "No"}

{"text": "Most businesses want to do more with less. Digital transformation consulting will guide you towards an all-in-one solution to help you streamline processes, improve efficiency & ultimately increase profits for your business.\nFrom an in-depth business audit, through to IT strategy and application development, the importance of strategic planning is crucial for a successful transition to digital.\nIn this post, we will discuss the three main components of a successful digital transition for any business.\nReview of current business processes\nIn order to plan a digital strategy, one must fully understand and identify opportunities for change within the current business system. Furthermore, the expectation and demands of consumers are changing. Therefore, companies need to readjust their customer relationships. Businesses can’t just rely on delivering a product or service but build platforms to provide an experience for the customer.\nAfter a thorough review and understanding of your business process, you can identify the challenges and build a strategy for a multiyear roadmap looking ahead. This lays the foundation and provides direction for key changes within your organisation.\nYou can generate new strategic ideas that meet the demands of today’s customer by leveraging data. Essentially, during this phase, you will discover what your customers really want, and identify new opportunities to deliver and delight them.\nThe importance of strategic planning\nDigital transformation consulting is not only about technology but more about strategy. The digital strategy is crucial to building the infrastructure and providing the frameworks, tools, and processes to successfully make the transition to digital.\nWhereas traditional digital agencies are known to end the relationship after they’ve built and delivered the product, quality digital transformation consulting will provide critical post-launch strategy support and planning.\nDigital transformation consulting should include ongoing support and guidance ensuring the solution is not only effective but is fully sustainable for the future.\nSoftware & application development\nIf it turns out your digital strategy requires the build of specific software or an application, then the appropriate app development software should be carefully designed with the help of user experience (UX) expertise.\nHowever, such products should only be provided if they are absolutely necessary. After all, not every solution requires an app! But beware, because many digital agencies will convince and charge you otherwise. But great digital transformation consulting will inform you whether or not application development or software is necessary. Sometimes, the functions of a mobile responsive website are all that is required.\nWhat is best for your organisation will be revealed throughout the business process audit and business strategy phrase.\nNow, obviously there is a lot more involved an organisation’s complete transition to digital, but this three-step process should serve as a blueprint for when employing a digital transformation consulting expert or agency.\nContact us today to see how vLinkD can help your business transition to digital or simply improve productivity.", "label": "No"}

The technology has been successfully used to make complex parts, such as medical implants, engine parts and aerospace components. Till now, most of the objects fabricated using AM are made of polymers and metals. Additive manufacturing of ceramic materials and ceramic- based composites is still at an embryonic stage and faces many challenges due to the fundamental difference in ceramic processing and properties, as compared to those for polymers and metals.\nThe proposed research is to explore and understand the fundamental mechanisms involved in the additive manufacture of ceramic matrix composites for gas turbine applications.

The automated alignment algorithms optimize the position in short time while the measurement values are assigned to each product.\nThe feedback sensors include optical power measurement (in the visible, near and mid infrared spectrum), polarization measurement, beam profiling, optical spectrum analzers, wave meters and MTF values.\nAutomated Resin Dispensing and Curing\nDispensers apply the resin as required. Small volumes of down to 5 nl will be dispensed as accurately as larger volumes in the ml regime. During the UV curing process, the motion system can compensate the unavoidable shrinkage of the resin.\nWhen NanoGlue works as a single station, the devices will be loaded with trays which carry one or several sets of components.

No. 2000-87188, the contents of which are hereby incorporated by reference.\n1. Field of the Invention\nThe invention relates generally to a method for reducing power consumption in a mobile radio terminal such as a radio telephone, and more particularly, to a method for reducing power consumption in a standby mode of a radio terminal when the radio terminal is operated in a slotted paging mode in a CDMA (Code Division Multiple Access) radio telephone system.\n2. Description of the Related Art\nThe slotted paging mode is a form of DRX (Discontinuous Reception) operations for a mobile radio terminal actuated by a battery such as a cellular radio telephone. The mobile radio terminal is adapted to radio communication with at least one remote base station in the radio telephone system. In the slotted paging mode, when the radio terminal (also referred to as a mobile station) is in an idle mode (or is not in conversation), the radio telephone is generally in a low power state without continuously monitoring a paging channel.\nThe slotted paging mode is important in the battery life of the radio telephone. It is an object of operating the slotted mode to reduce the operating time of a radio apparatus into the smallest amount and interrupt the power of the radio apparatus as little as possible during a sleep period. In an idle mode, the radio telephone wakes up only in a previously allocated slot by the radio telephone system or for treating certain other conditions such as a user input.\nIn returning from the sleep period, the radio apparatus should re-acquire an RF (Radio Frequency) link with the base station of the radio telephone system. Acquisition of the link and other operations including communication protocols for such a system are defined in air interface standards. An example of such a standard may include the TIA/EIA (Telecommunications Industry Association/Electronic Industry Association) IS-95: “Mobile Station-Base Station Compatibility Standard for Dual-Mode Wideband Spread Spectrum Cellular System.” The IS-95 defines a DS (Direct Sequence)-CDMA or CDMA radio telephone system.\nIn order to re-acquire the RF link, the radio telephone of the CDMA system synchronizes with the system time that is maintained by the base station and a network controller of the CDMA system. The timing for a forward link (base station to mobile station) should be maintained by the radio telephone in anticipation that the radio apparatus is promptly started when an allocated slot is generated. The timing uncertainties are modified and the paging channel is acquired to prepare for treatment.\nThe synchronization with the forward link includes an alignment of a PN (Pseudorandom Noise) sequence transmitted to a pilot channel by the base station and a locally generated PN sequence. The transmitted sequences include a “short PN” sequence, which is repeated every 26⅔ ms, and a “long PN” sequence, which is repeated every 41 days. The radio telephone includes a sequence generator for generating short and long PN sequences same as those used by the base station. The radio telephone uses a searcher receiver or other mechanism for aligning the short PN sequence with that received from the base station. Once the pilot channel is acquired, the radio telephone acquires a synchronizing channel and the paging channel. Then, the radio telephone correctly demodulates a traffic channel to establish a full-duplex link with the base station.\nIn the start after the sleep time, the radio telephone synchronizes with the long PN sequence and the short PN sequence. The PN sequences and a frame boundary are repeated with a logical frequency in the IS-95 system. The frame boundary is generated in every third PN roll boundary. The PN roll boundary is defined by a short PN sequence which reverse rolls to the initial value thereof. In the mobile station, the short PN sequence and the long PN sequence are defined as a linear sequence. The short PN sequence and the long PN sequence are generated by using a LSG (Linear Sequence Generator). The LSG is described as a polynomial, and obtained by using a shift register and an exclusive OR gate. Since the short PN sequence is repeated only in every 26⅔ ms, the LSG, when withdrawing from the sleep state, can be conveniently stopped in a specific phase of the sequence until the phase has a correlation with a system PN. Then, the short PN LSG synchronizes with the system timing and starts again.\nHowever, the long PN sequence is repeated only once in every 41 days. It is unpractical that the long PN generator of the radio telephone is stopped (for example, when entering the sleep state) and then the generator is clocked at high speed to catch up the long PN of the system in the start thereafter.\nSince the short PN sequence and the long PN sequence are transmitted by the system which varies predictably according to time, the PN sequence acquisition requires that a correct reference time is maintained in the mobile station during the sleep mode. A PN sequence can be suitably determined for the correlation with the system PN sequence in withdrawing from the sleep mode. However, maintaining a precise timing reference requires a relatively high power consumption which is contradictory to the sleep mode designed for low power consumption.\nIn addition to withdrawing from the sleep mode during the allocated slot, the radio telephone is also required to start for handling other asynchronously generated events in the radio apparatus or for responding to the same. An example of this type of event can include a user input such as pressing a keypad of the radio telephone. The response to such an input should be prompt without any delay which can be recognized by the user.\nAs it is important in the foregoing related art, a technique for reducing power consumption uses a method in which a receiver in a standby mode is activated only at a pre-designated time to perform a receiving operation during a certain time and then returns to the low power mode by using the slotted paging mode supported by the system. Here, even in the low power mode, minimum clocking is required for the purpose of maintaining synchronization with the system being re-activated and responding to the external input such as an interrupt.\nHowever, while an edge timing should be suitably used in order to use the low frequency clock, actually a mode operated in a high frequency clock is present between receiving modes to maintain the correct edge timing required by the system. Such a mode is referred to as catnap mode in the following description. The operation of this catnap mode is defined with a certain period, and this period is defined via a trade-off according to an experiment.\nHowever, if the operating period of the catnap mode is shorter than required, a loss is caused in power consumption, and if too long, the system may not be suitably synchronized in some cases.\nAs described hereinbefore, since the catnap mode, which is used for low speed clock compensation to reduce power consumption, is fixed with a certain value, unnecessarily high power consumption may take place or on the contrary abnormal synchronization to the system may take place.\nIt is therefore an object of the present invention to provide an adaptive method of updating a catnap period so that a stable synchronization to the system can take place without an unnecessary power consumption.\nAccording to an embodiment of the invention to obtain the foregoing object, an adaptive method for reducing power consumption in a standby mode of a digital radio communication terminal is provided. The method comprises the steps: calculating the difference of edge timings between a main clock and a low clock; comparing the calculated timing difference with a predetermined difference reference value; and upgrading or downgrading a catnap period according to the result of the step of comparing.\nThe above and other objects, features and advantages of the present invention will become more apparent from the following detailed description when taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, in which:\nA preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described herein below with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the following description, well-known functions or constructions are not described in detail since they would obscure the invention in unnecessary detail.\nThe present invention is applicable to a digital radio system supporting a slotted paging mode. First, an example of the radio terminal system and the radio terminal will be described in detail in reference to\nThe base station 102 transmits a spread spectrum signal to the radio telephone 104. A symbol of a traffic channel is spread by using a Walsh code in a process that is known as Walsh covering. The mobile station such as the radio telephone 104 is allocated with a characteristic Walsh code by the base station 102 so that a traffic channel transmission to each mobile station perpendicularly intersects every traffic channel transmission to a different mobile station. The symbol is spread by using a short PN sequence or code repeated every 26⅔ ms or a long PN sequence or code repeated every 41 days. A communication via an RF (Radio Frequency) link between the base station and the radio telephone 104 has the shape of a chip having a velocity of 1.2288 Mega-chips per second. The chip is a data bit.\nThe radio telephone 104 includes an antenna 106, an analog front end 108, a modem 110, a call processor 112, a timing controller 114, an oscillator 116, a user interface 118 and a battery 150. The battery 150 supplies operating power to other components of the radio telephone 104.\nThe antenna 106 receives an RF signal from the base station 102 and other neighboring base stations. The received RF signal is converted into an electric signal by the antenna 106, and then sent to the analog front end 108. The analog front end 108 includes an RF section 109 including circuit devices such as a receiver and a transmitter which can be powered off in the slotted paging mode. The analog front end 108 filters the signal to provide a conversion to a base band signal.\nThe analog base band signal is sent to the modem 110 where the base band signal is converted into a digital data stream for the following process. The modem 110 generally includes a rake receiver and a search receiver. The search receiver searches for a pilot signal which is received by the radio telephone 104 from a number of base stations including the base station 102. The search receiver despreads the pilot signal by using a correlator together with a system PN code generated in the radio telephone 104 by using a local reference timing. The search receiver includes at least one sequence generator such as an LSG 120 to generate the PN code. The modem 110 correlates the locally generated PN code with the received CDMA signal. The modem 110 detects a system timing indicator transmitted by the radio telephone system 100. In particular, the modem 110 detects a PN roll over boundary and sends an indication of the PN roll over boundary to the timing controller 114. The modem also includes a circuit device for transmitting data from the radio telephone 104 to a base station such as the base station 102. The modem 110 can be constructed of conventional elements.\nThe call processor 112 controls functions of the radio telephone 104. The call processor 112 is operated in response to a stored command program, and includes a memory for storing commands and other data. The call processor 112 includes a clock input 122 for receiving a clock signal and an interrupt input 124 associated with the timing controller 114 for receiving an interrupt request signal. The call processor 112 receives an interval from the base station 102, in which the radio telephone should search for a page. The radio telephone can monitor the paging channel for 160 ms during this interval, but cannot be in a sleep state. The call processor 112 adjusts an event in the radio telephone required for entry and exit into/from the sleep mode. Such an event includes steps of continuously tracing a system time, proceeding to the LSG state, restarting the oscillator 116, enabling power to the RF section 109 of the analog front end 108 and restarting the clock from the timing controller 114 to the modem 110. The call processor 112 is associated with other elements of the radio telephone.\nThe user interface 118 allows the user to control the operation of the radio telephone 104. The user interface 118 typically includes a display, a keypad, a microphone and a receiver. The user interface 118 is associated with the call processor 112 by a bus 152.\nThe timing controller 114 controls the timing of the radio telephone 104. In particular, the timing controller 114 controls an entry/exit into/from the slotted paging mode by the radio telephone 104 and a synchronization of the local timing of the radio telephone 104 with the system timing of the radio telephone system 100. The timing controller 114 has a clock input 130 for receiving a clock signal from the oscillator 116, an interrupt input 131 for receiving an interrupt request from the user interface 118 and an interrupt input 132 for receiving an interrupt request from other components of the radio telephone 104.\nThe timing controller 114 has a timing input 134 for receiving the timing signal from the modem 110 and a timing output 136 for sending the timing signal to the modem 110. The timing signal (designated as “PNSTROBE” in\nThe oscillator 116 is a reference oscillator for generating a reference clock signal at a first velocity. In the disclosed embodiment, the oscillator 116 generates a precise clock signal having accurate resolution such as a clock signal of 16.8 MHz. The timing controller 114 has a control output 138 for sending a control signal to the oscillator 116. In response to the control signal, the oscillator 116 is activated and inactivated. When inactivated, the oscillator 116 enters the low power mode. The timing controller 114 further sends the control signal (designated as “RXCTRLB” in\nIn such a method for reducing power consumption of the radio telephone 104 of the radio telephone system, a certain period has been given to the catnap mode so far which operates in the high frequency clock, even in the receiving mode, to maintain a correct edge timing as required by the system to suitably use the edge timing with the low frequency clock.\nThe present invention adaptively adjusts the operating period of the catnap mode to prevent that the operating period of the catnap mode from having a power consumption loss if in practice, the operating period of the catnap mode is shorter than necessary or the operating period of the catnap mode is not suitably synchronized to the system if too long.\nIn step 402, it is determined if the edge timing difference “DIFF” of the main clock and the low frequency clock calculated above is over a predetermined difference reference value “DA (Difference Allowed).” Being over the difference reference value “DA”, the process proceeds to upgrade the catnap period calculation variable “TTEMP” by using the difference value “DIFF” and “SFI” in step 403, which is followed by proceeding to step 405. Conversely, if the edge timing difference “DIFF” is less then or equal to the predetermined difference reference value “DA” in step 402, the process proceeds to downgrade the “TTEMP” by using “DIFF” and “SFD” in step 404, which is also followed by proceeding to step 405. Steps 402 to 404 are repeatedly calculated in the catnap generated in the low power mode during one slot cycle.\nIn step 405, a calculated result is compared to a predetermined value as the maximum critical value “TU.” If the calculated result is greater than the maximum critical value “TU”, the process proceeds to step 406 to shorten the catnap period “T” to prevent any unsuitable synchronization to the system. Conversely, if the calculated result is less than or equal to the maximum critical value “TU”, the process proceeds to step 407. In step 407, the calculated result is compared with a predetermined value as the minimum critical value “TL.” If the calculated result is less than the minimum critical value “TL”, the process proceeds to step 408 to lengthen the catnap period “T” to reduce an unnecessarily consumed current.

{"text": "Anyway, a lot’s happened since we first wrote about the company’s Kickstarter campaign. It’s racked up nearly 2,500 backers and met its funding goal, raising more than $150,000 (compared to the $40,000 it was hoping to raise). It’s also announced a slightly more expensive version of the device in white — for people who want to be a little bit more fashionable, I guess.\nWith that success already behind it, the team behind Poppy is thinking about other things that can be done with the device, looking to go beyond just taking and viewing 3-D photos and videos. One possibility is to provide its customers with 3-D-based games, and it’s courting game developers to make that a reality.\nFounders Joe Heitzeberg and Ethan Lowry see an opportunity for augmented reality and virtual reality games being made to work with Poppy. While it works to shoot photos and videos, it would also work equally well as a viewfinder for games that wanted to layer AR images on top. Developers could even use the iPhone’s volume buttons, available at the top of the device, for controls. At $49, Heitzeberg says, the device could be a poor man’s version of the Occulus Rift, particularly for casual games.\nTo be honest, there’s nothing really to stop developers from building for the device. It doesn’t require any special API or anything, just visualization that takes into account the two sides of the screen that get combined in the viewfinder.\nOf course, it will help to actually get Poppy into developers’ hands so that they can test it out themselves and refine whatever they hope to build. On that front, now that they’ve reached their funding goal, the guys working on Poppy are hoping to start moving into production and hope to have units shipping by the holidays.\nThe Kickstarter’s still going for another week.

No. 11/353,882, which in turn claims priority to a provisional application entitled “Electro-magnetic Scanning Imager,” filed on Feb. 15, 2005 and having a Ser. No. 60/653,228, which is herein incorporated by reference. Both of these applications are herein incorporated by reference in their entirety.\nThe present invention relates generally to imaging systems, and methods of imaging, and more particularly, to such systems and methods that can be utilized to acquire images of objects hidden behind visibly opaque obstructions.\nA variety of conventional systems are available for obtaining images through visibly opaque materials. For example, X-ray systems have been utilized to acquire images of objects that are hidden from visual inspection by visibly opaque materials (e.g., anatomical structures or objects within a luggage). X-ray systems, however, have many disadvantages. By way of example, such systems can be expensive and bulky, and can utilize ionizing radiation that may pose health hazards to humans. Moreover, X-ray systems typically detect a beam that has been transmitted through a target sample, thus requiring access to both sides of the target.\nUltrasound imaging systems, in turn, require the presence of a continuous, high quality acoustic transmission path between a transducer and a “hidden” object of interest. In many cases, however, such acoustic transmission paths may be not be available.\nMillimeter-wave imaging systems have recently been developed for securing screening applications. Such conventional millimeter-wave systems are, however, complex, costly and bulky.\nAccordingly, there is a need for enhanced imaging systems and associated image acquisition methods for obtaining images of objects behind visibly opaque obstructions, e.g., images of interiors of walls/floors/ceiling, boxes, suitcases and the like. There is also a need for such imaging systems that are field portable. Further, there is a need for such systems and methods that can be utilized for screening luggage and other containers for hazardous substances, e.g., explosive materials and devices.\nThe present invention generally provides imaging systems operating in a frequency range of about 1 GHz to about 2000 GHz that allow acquiring, and displaying, images of objects, and particularly of objects that are hidden from view by visibly opaque materials.\nIn one aspect, the present invention provides an imaging system that includes a source of electromagnetic radiation that is capable of generating radiation with one or more frequencies in a range of about 1 GHz to about 2000 GHz (one or more wavelengths in a range of about 0.015 mm to about 30 mm). The imaging system further includes an optical system that is optically coupled to the source so as to focus radiation received therefrom onto an object plane. The optical system directs at least a portion of the focused radiation propagating back from the object plane onto an image plane. A scan mechanism is coupled to the optical system for controlling thereof so as to move the focused radiation over the object plane. A detector, which is optically coupled to the optical system at the image plane, detects at least a portion of the radiation propagating back from a plurality of scanned (illuminated) locations in the object plane, thereby generating a detection signal (typically a time-varying signal). And a processor, which is in communication with the detector, generates an image of at least a portion of the object plane based on the detection signal.\nThe terms “object plane” and “image plane” are known in the art. To the extent that any further explanation may be needed, the term “object plane” can refer to plane—which can contain one or more surfaces (or surface portions) of one or more objects—whose image is desired. And the image plane can refer to a plane on which the image of the object plane (or a portion thereof) is formed, e.g., the surface of a detector. In some cases, the object and image planes can have not only a two-dimensional extent but also a depth, e.g., one associated with depth of focus of the radiation on the object plane.\nA variety of radiation sources and detectors can be employed. Some examples of suitable radiation sources include, without limitation, Gunn oscillators, magnetrons, IMPATT diodes, Dielectric Resonator Oscillators (DROs), and MIMICs. Some examples of suitable detectors include, without limitation, various types of circuitry incorporating a non-linear device such as a schottky diode. In some cases, the radiation source and the detector are formed as a single transmit/receive module operating in the frequency range of interest. By way of example, a Gunnplexer can function as such a transmit/receive unit.\nIn a related aspect, the imager further includes a position sensor coupled to the scan mechanism for determining a position thereof relative to a reference position. The position sensor is in communication with the processor to communicate the position of the scan mechanism, and consequently the location of the focused radiation on the object plane, to the processor. The processor, in turn, maps variations of the detection signal to one or more respective locations in the object plane from which the back-propagating radiation giving rise to the detection signal originates. The processor utilizes this mapping to generate an image of at least a portion of the object plane illuminated by the radiation.\nIn another aspect, the imager includes a display in communication with the processor for displaying an image of at least a portion of the object plane generated by the processor. By way of example, the processor can apply image drive signals to the display to cause display of a plurality of pixels, each corresponding to a location on the object plane, where the intensity of each pixel is proportional to the strength of the back-propagating radiation originating from that location.\nIn a related aspect, the scan mechanism can be adapted to cause the optical system to generate a variety of radiation scan patterns on the object plane. Some examples of such patterns include, without limitation, a generally elliptical (e.g., circular) pattern, a spiral pattern, a floret pattern or a raster pattern.\nIn another aspect, the imaging system is adapted to be moved by a user so as to scan the radiation, in combination with the scan mechanism, in two dimensions in the object plane. In such a case, the detection signal generated by the detector corresponds to back-propagating radiation originating from the scanned locations in the object plane. The processor maps variations of the detection signal to those scanned locations so as to generate an image of a region in the object plane, which includes those locations. Further, for each image point coordinate corresponding to one of the scanned locations, the display presents, in response to image drive signals provided by the processor, a brightness proportional to a strength of the detection signal corresponding to the back-propagating radiation from that scanned location.\nIn a related aspect, the imaging system includes means for generating data indicative of locations and orientations of the system (e.g., relative to a reference location/orientation), as it is moved by a user (e.g., over a wall surface) and for communicating that data to the processor. Such means can include a variety of sensors, such as tracking balls with orthogonal rotation encoding devices and inertial sensors. The processor utilizes the data for mapping the detection signal to the scanned locations over the object plane.\nIn some cases, the processor correlates a plurality of partially overlapping image frames to form an image of a portion of the object plane. By way of example, the processor can utilize one or more pixels in an overlap region between two image frames as reference for determining relative positions of the other pixels in the two image frames. This process can be repeated for other overlapping regions so as to build an entire image.\nIn another aspect, the imaging system can comprise a portable housing, preferably handheld, in which various components of the system (e.g., radiation source, scanner, lens) are disposed. The imaging system can comprise an electronic processing and display module (EPDM) that includes the processor and/or the display. The EPDM can be integrated within the portable housing containing the other optical components, or can be contained within a separate enclosure that is in communication with the portable housing.\nIn another aspect, the imaging system comprises a focus drive mechanism coupled to the optical system for varying an axial distance between the optical system and the transmit/receive module so as to focus the radiation at a plurality of axially separated object planes. In some embodiments, the source is capable of being frequency tuned (e.g., via a tuning mechanism) so as to allow focusing the radiation via a longitudinal chromatic aberration of the optical system onto axially separated object planes.\nIn a related aspect, in the above imaging system, a position sensor is in communication with the focus drive mechanism for determining an axial position of the optical system relative to a reference position. The position sensor can communicate the optical system's position to the processor, which can, in turn, utilize this information to temporally correlate a detection signal at a given time to a respective object plane.\nIn another aspect, the imaging system includes a mechanism coupled to the source for modulating its radiation frequency. By way of example, the radiation frequency can be modulated over a range of about 24.1 GHz to about 24.2 GHz (e.g., about 100 MHz). By way of example, the modulation frequency can have an amplitude (i.e., excursion about a center frequency) that is about 1% of the center frequency.\nIn other aspects, a portable imager is disclosed that includes a source for generating electromagnetic radiation with one or more frequency components in a range of about 1 GHz to about 2000 GHz. The imager further includes means for directing radiation from the source to an object plane and for directing at least a portion of the radiation propagating back from the object plane to an image plane. Further, the imager includes means coupled to the radiation-directing means for controlling thereof so as to scan the radiation over at least a portion of the object plane, and means for detecting radiation propagating back from a plurality of scanned locations in the object plane and generating a detection signal. The imager also includes means for analyzing the detection signal so as to generate an image of at least a portion of the object plane.\nIn another aspect, the invention provides an imaging system that includes a handheld housing. The housing contains a source of electromagnetic radiation, a focusing system, a scan mechanism, a detector and a processor. The source is capable of generating radiation with one or more frequency components in a range of about 1 GHz to about 2000 GHz. The focusing system directs radiation generated by the source onto an object plane and directs at least a portion of the radiation propagating back from the object plane onto an image plane. The scan mechanism is coupled to the focusing system for controlling thereof so as to provide a one-dimensional scan of the radiation over the object plane. The detector is optically coupled to the focusing system at the image plane to detect at least a portion of the back-propagating radiation so as to generate a detection signal (e.g., a time-varying detection signal). The processor is coupled to the detector to receive the detection signal, and to analyze that signal. The housing is adapted for movement so as to scan the radiation, in combination with the one-dimensional scan, over a plurality of locations in a two-dimensional region of the object plane.\nIn a related aspect, in the above portable imager, the processor generates an image of the two-dimensional region based on the detection signals corresponding to the scanned locations. For example, the processor maps the detection signals temporally to respective scanned locations for generating the image. The imager can further include a display, mounted to the housing or remotely located, that is in communication with the processor for displaying the image.\nIn another aspect, the invention provides an imaging system that comprises a transmit/receive module capable of generating and detecting electromagnetic radiation having one or more frequency components in a range of about 1 GHz to about 2000 GHz. An optical system is coupled to the transmit/receive module for focusing the radiation onto a focal plane and for directing a portion of the radiation propagating back from the focal plane to that module for detection. The imaging system further includes a drive mechanism coupled to the optical system for varying an axial distance of a focusing element thereof relative to the transmit/receive module so as to axially vary a position of the focal plane. The transmit/receive module generates a detection signal corresponding to the radiation propagating from the varying focal plane. A processor is coupled to the transmit/receive module to analyze the detection signal for generating an image of an axial region over which the focal plane is varied.\nIn a related aspect, in the above imager, the position sensor is coupled to the drive mechanism for determining an axial position of the focusing element relative to a reference position. The position sensor communicates the information regarding the focusing element's axial position to the processor. The processor, in turn, analyzes the detection signal temporally as a function of the focusing element's axial position so as to map the detection signal at a plurality of time intervals to the axial locations of the focal plane. The imager can also include a scan mechanism coupled to the focusing element for scanning the radiation over a surface of the focal plane substantially perpendicular to the axial direction, and a scan position sensor that can determine the position of the scan mechanism relative to a reference. The processor analyzes the detection signal temporally as a function of the focusing element's axial position so as to map the detection signal at a plurality of time intervals to axial locations of the focal plane. Further, the processor can employ information from the scan position sensor to correlate detection signal originating from a focal plane to various coordinate points within that plane.\nIn another aspect, an imaging system is disclosed that includes a housing adapted for movement over a surface located at a distance from an object plane. A transmit/receive module (e.g., a Gunnplexer) disposed in the housing generates and detects electromagnetic radiation. The imaging system further includes an optical system that is optically coupled to the transmit/receive module to focus radiation received therefrom onto the object plane, and to direct at least a portion of the radiation propagating back from the object plane onto the transmit/receive module. A scanning system coupled to the optical system rotates a focusing element thereof about a rotation axis, thereby moving the focused radiation over a region of the object plane. The imaging system further includes a position sensor in communication with the scanning mechanism to generate signals indicative of the position of the focusing element relative to a reference position. And a subsystem disposed in the housing generates signals indicative of location of the housing on the surface as the housing is moved over that surface. By way of example, the subsystem can comprise optical or inertial sensors. The imaging system further includes a processor in communication with the transmit/receive unit, the position sensor and the location-determining subsystem, which generates an image of at least a portion of the object plane based on the detected back-propagating radiation and signals generated by the position sensor and the subsystem.\nIn a related aspect, the imaging system can further include a display that is in communication with the processor for displaying the image. In some cases, the optical system and the scanning mechanism, as well as the processor and the display, are disposed in the same housing. In other cases, the processor and/or the display can be disposed in a separate housing.\nIn a related aspect, the processor generates a set of image point coordinates in a coordinate space of the object plane based on signals received from the position sensor coupled to the focusing element and the location-determining subsystem. Further, the processor applies a plurality of image drive signals to the display to effect the display of an image corresponding to those image point coordinates. The processor generates each image drive signal based on a strength of the detected back-propagating radiation originating from a location on the object plane corresponding to one of the image point coordinates. Each image drive signal, in turn, causes the presentation of an image point on the display, where the image point exhibits a brightness corresponding to the strength of the detected signal associated with a respective image point coordinate. The location of a displayed image point in the display is based on the position of the focusing element and the location of the housing at a time when back-propagating radiation originating from an object plane location corresponding to that image point is detected.\nIn a related aspect, the focusing element in the above imaging system comprises a diffractive optical element. In some cases, the diffractive optical element can comprise diffractive zones that are disposed about an optical axis that is offset from the element's rotational axis, which can be substantially centered relative to the emitting aperture of the transmit/receive module. A variety of diffractive optical elements can be employed, such as amplitude zone plates and phase zone plates. While in some cases, the optical and rotational axes of the focusing element are substantially parallel, in other cases, they can intersect at the aperture of the transmit/receive module.\nIn a related aspect, the emitting aperture of the transmit/receive module, the focusing element, and the focused radiation in the object plane generated by the focusing element are disposed in a confocal configuration.\nIn another aspect, the transmit/receive module comprises a frequency-modulating subsystem for modulating the frequency of the emitted radiation in response to a control signal.\nIn other aspects, an imaging system is disclosed that includes a transmit/receive module for generating and detecting electromagnetic radiation. The system further includes a telecentric lens system that receives and focuses the radiation onto an object plane. The lens system can comprise an eccentric rotatable lens disposed at a selected distance from a fixed lens. Further, the lens system directs radiation propagating back from the object plane onto the transmit/receive module for detection. A scanning mechanism is coupled to the rotatable lens for rotating the lens about a rotation axis, thereby moving the focused radiation in the object plane. The imaging system further includes a processor coupled to the transmit/receive module for generating an image of at least a portion of the object plane, which is illuminated by the radiation, based on the detected back-propagating radiation.\nIn a related aspect, the eccentric lens is disposed at a distance substantially equal to its focal length from the emitting aperture of the transmit/receive module. The eccentric lens collimates radiation received from the transmit/receive module and directs the collimated radiation along an off-axis direction to the fixed lens. The fixed lens, in turn, focuses the off-axis radiation onto the object plane.\nIn another aspect, the invention provides a method of imaging that includes providing a source of electromagnetic radiation that is capable of generating radiation with one or more frequency components in a range of about 1 GHz to about 2000 GHz. The radiation is focused from the source onto an object plane, and the focused radiation is scanned over at least a portion of the object plane. At least a portion of the radiation propagating back from the object plane is detected, thereby generating a detection signal, which is typically a time-varying signal. The detection signal is analyzed to form an image of the scanned portion of the object plane. The image can then be displayed.\nFurther understanding of various aspects of the invention can be obtained by reference to the following detailed description, in conjunction with the associated drawings, which are described briefly below.\nIn this embodiment and some that follow, without any loss of generality, the functioning of the imagers according to the teachings of the invention are discussed by considering acquiring images within a depth of a wall (or other obstructions) that is opaque to visible radiation. Such imagers can, however, be also utilized to acquire images of other objects. For example, the imaging systems of the invention can be utilized to image objects within containers.\nThe source 12 and the detector 14 are disposed on opposite sides of a beam splitter 23 such that the propagation axis 20 associated with the source and the detection axis 24 associated with the detector typically intersect at an approximately 90-degree angle. The beam splitter 23 is perpendicular to a plane formed by the propagation and the detection axes and is oriented such that a normal to its surface bisects the angle between those axes, e.g., it typically forms a 45-degree angle with each of those axes. The radiation emitted by the source passes through the beam splitter to be directed by other optical components onto a region of interest, as discussed below.\nBy way of example, the beam splitter 23 can be preferably implemented as a polarizing beam splitter having a polarization axis that is preferably oriented either parallel or perpendicular to a plane defined by the propagation and detection axes. In some embodiments, a so-called wire grid polarizer (WGP) is employed, which can be made, e.g., of a one-dimensional array or grid of very fine parallel electrically conductive elements disposed upon a suitable transparent base material or, e.g., by a grid of fine parallel wires strung on a frame. By way of example,\nReferring again to\nIn some embodiments of the invention, the BFL includes four steps each providing a ¼-wave phase delay. By way of example,\nReferring again to\nIn some embodiments, the QWP 36 can be implemented as a grooved dielectric plate, such as that schematically depicted in\nIn this exemplary embodiment, the QWP 36 is disposed perpendicular to the propagation axis of radiation from the source 12 with its fast axis preferably oriented at +/−45 degrees from the plane of polarization of the outgoing radiation. As is well known in the art, linearly polarized radiation passing through a QWP oriented in this manner emerges from the QWP as substantially circularly polarized.\nThe imager 10 further includes a scan mechanism 38 coupled to the lens 32 for rotating the lens about its rotation axis (herein also referred to as the lens's physical axis). The lens is preferably disposed relative to the source such that its rotation axis is substantially coincident with the propagation axis of the outgoing radiation. As noted above, an optical axis 40 of the lens is displaced from its rotation axis by a predetermined distance, e.g., by about ½ of the radius of the lens. The optical axis of the lens can be parallel to its rotation axis, or alternatively, it can intersect the rotation axis at the emitting aperture of the source. As discussed in more detail below, the rotation of the lens 32 allows scanning the radiation at the focal plane of the lens over a path in an object plane.\nA variety of scanning mechanisms can be utilized in the practice of the invention. For example, referring to\nIn this exemplary embodiment, various components of the imager, such as those discussed above, are disposed in a portable, preferably handheld housing 44. An optional window 46 (e.g., formed of a material transparent at the operating wavelength) is coupled to the housing 44 through which the radiation generated by the source can be transmitted to illuminate interior portions of the wall, as discussed further below. In other embodiments, no window is provided.\nIn operation, the lens 32 directs radiation generated by the source 12, after its passage through the beam splitter 23, via the QWP 36 and the window 46 into the interior of a wall (or other obstruction, or a region behind such an obstruction) to illuminate portions thereof, such as the object region 48. Preferably, the lens 32 forms an image of the source so as to create an illuminating focused point (e.g., an area of maximal radiation intensity) at a distance from the lens that is less than infinity and more than one focal length of the lens. In many embodiments, the radiation from the imager is focused onto an object plane (e.g., object plane 50) within the wall, and the radiation returning from that object plane is detected and analyzed to form an image thereof, as discussed in more detail below. In general, the object plane 50 has an axial extension (a depth) corresponding to the axial extension of the focal volume, as schematically illustrated by volume 48, which represents a portion of the object plane.\nIn this exemplary embodiment, the lens 32 is placed at a distance from the source substantially equal to twice its focal length, thereby forming an image of the source at a distance of approximately two focal lengths from the lens. Accordingly, the image is displaced radially from the rotation axis by twice the displacement of the lens's optical axis from the rotation axis. As shown schematically in\nIn some embodiments, it is preferable to operate the imager with a small tilt angle (e.g., approximately 7 degrees) between a scanning plane (e.g., a plane perpendicular to the lens's rotation axis) and a translation plane (i.e., the plane over which the imager is translated to build up an image of an area). For example, as shown schematically in\nReferring again to\nAs noted above, the combined rotation of the lens and the translation of the imager over the wall surface results in illuminating various locations within the interior of the wall. As the illuminating radiation impinges on an object that is not transparent to the radiation, e.g., a metal pipe and/or electrical wiring within the wall, at least a portion of the radiation is reflected or scattered. In the frequency range of about 1 to about 2000 GHz, most objects specularly reflect, rather than scatter, the radiation. Hence, at least some of the radiation incident on such objects within the wall is reflected back towards the imager, e.g., depending on the “look angle” of the illumination and a normal to the reflecting surface at the point of illumination. The lens collects this back-propagating radiation (or at least a portion thereof), after its passage through the QWP 36, and directs that radiation, as a converging radiation beam, to the beam splitter 23. As is known in the art, the passage of the returning radiation, which is circularly polarized (or at least substantially circularly polarized, as the reflection of the incident radiation may have cause some change in the polarization) through the QWP results in conversion of its polarization to linear polarization with a polarization axis normal to that of the linearly polarized radiation generated by the source. As such, the beam splitter directs this linearly polarized back-propagating radiation to the detector 14. In this embodiment, the detector 14 operates in heterodyne mode, that is, it mixes the returning radiation with radiation from a local oscillator 62 to generate an intermediate frequency (IF) electrical signal whose strength is proportional to the intensity of the returning radiation and whose lower frequency can be more readily processed by electronics circuitry. A variety of detectors and local oscillators can be employed. For example, in some embodiments, a receive diode of a Gunnplexer can be employed as the detector. In some other embodiments, a small portion of the transmit oscillator power can act as an oscillator for the receiver. In such a case, a single oscillator can be used for microwave emission as well as detection.\nThe detector 14 transmits the electrical signal generated in response to detection of the returning radiation to a digital data processor 64. The digital data processor is also in communication with the scan position sensor 42 and the location sensors 60 to receive information regarding, respectively, the angular rotation of the lens (herein also referred to as A(t)) and the location of the imager on the wall surface (herein also referred to as P1(t) and P2(t), where P1(t) denotes the information from the first location sensor 60 and P2(t) denotes the information from the second location sensor 60). The digital data processor employs the received data to map the time-varying detection signal to a plurality of respective locations on the object plane from which the back-propagating radiation originates. More specifically, the electrical signal, herein also referred to as I(t), is typically a time-varying signal whose strength at any instant is proportional to the intensity of the returning radiation detected by the detector 14 at that time. The intensity is related to the reflecting properties of the object that is at that time at the location where the illuminating radiation is directed. It will be understood by those familiar with the art of scanning image sensing that signal I(t) varies as a function of time because the lens is scanning the radiation in time over the object space. That is,\nwhere x(t), and y(t) define the instantaneous position of the illuminating radiation in the object plane. In the remaining equations, the time dependence is dropped for convenience.\nDigital data processor 64 transforms/inverts, and combines, the measurement A, P1(x,y), and P2(x,y) to generate x and y. In the exemplary embodiment of\nX r =d cos(A), and\nY r =d sin(A)\nwhere Xr and Yr are the x and y coordinates of the lens relative to the axis of rotation in the frame of reference of the imager housing, and d is the off-axis distance to the imager spot.\nSimilarly, Xh, Yh, and θz coordinates of the imager housing can be calculated from P1 and P2, where it is understood each of P1 and P2 comprises an x- and a y-measurement (x1, y1; x2, y2). For example, if the location sensor P1 is selected as the housing reference point, then\nwhere θ0 is the initial angle relative to the x-axis passing through P1 of the line connecting P1 with P2.\nFinally, the position of the imaging spot can be calculated by adding the following three vectors: (1) a vector representing the rigid body displacement of the housing, (2) the position of the axis of rotation relative to the housing reference point, and (3) the displacement of the image point due to the angular rotation of the lens. More specifically, x and y can be obtained by employing the following relations:\nx=x 1 +D[ cos θz cos θ0−sin θz sin θ0 ]+d cos A, and\ny=y 1 +D[ cos θz sin θ0+sin θz cos θ0 ]+d sin A,\nwhere D is the distance between P1 and the axis of rotation.\nThe processor 64 is also adapted to generate image position drive signals suitable for application to an image display 66. The image position drive signals cause the display of a plurality of image points, each having a brightness that corresponds to the detected signal strength from a respective coordinate point in the object plane. In operation, a complete image is built up on the imaging display 66 as the imager's housing in moved over the wall surface (or in proximity thereof) while the imager's lens is rotated to scan the beam over an interior swath of the wall.\nIn some embodiments, relative locations of the pixels in an image obtained by combined rotation of the lens and translation of the imager are determined by acquiring a plurality of partially overlapping image frames, and tracking one or more pixels in the overlap regions. By way of example,\nBy way of example and only for illustrative purposes,\nAlthough in the above embodiment, the processor 64 and the display 66 are housed within a single housing with the other components of the imager, in other embodiments, the processor and/or the display can be disposed in a separate housing. In embodiments in which the processor/display are disposed in a separate enclosure, one or more communications channels can be provided to allow the processor and/or display to communicate with one or more imager components disposed in another enclosure. In some cases, the communications channels employ wireless channels that utilize known wireless protocols.\nThe implementation of an imager according to the teachings of the invention is not limited to the embodiment described above. In fact, such as imager can be implemented in a variety of different ways. For example,\nReferring again to\nThe lens 92 is rotated about a rotation axis (illustrated as RA) by a scan mechanism 108, such as those discussed above in connection with the previous embodiment. Similar to the previous embodiment, an optical axis (OA) of the lens 92 is displaced relative to its rotation axis by a selected distance, e.g., about one-half the lens's radius. The rotation axis is generally centered on the emitting aperture of the transmit/receive unit 78 parallel to general direction of propagation of the radiation (parallel to the central ray of a cone-like bundle of rays). The optical axis can be parallel to the rotation axis, or may form a non-zero angle with the rotation axis so as to intersect that axis at the emitting aperture of the transmit/receive unit. The rotation of the lens causes the image of the source, generated by the lens, to scan a selected path (e.g., a generally circular path) over an object plane, in a manner similar to that discussed above in connection with the previous embodiment.\nIn some embodiments, the emitting aperture of the transmit/receive unit 78, the lens 92, and the image of the emitting aperture are preferably disposed in a confocal configuration. That is, the illuminating radiation is focused onto a small region in a plane of interest (e.g., the object plane), and the reflected (or scattered) radiation reaching the detector (the transmit/receive module in this case) is limited to those rays that originate from the illuminated region. In some embodiments, such a confocal imaging system is employed to reject stray light by utilizing, for example, two strategies: (1) by illuminating a single point (small area) at any given time with a focused beam such that the focused intensity drops off rapidly at axial locations away from that plane of focus (e.g., in front or behind that plane), and (2) by utilizing a blocking or a pinhole aperture, or a point detector, in a conjugate receiver plane so that light reflected (or scattered) from the illuminated object region is blocked from reaching the detector.\nWith continued reference to\nThe output electrical signal is communicated, e.g., via a communication channel 100, to an electronic processor 102 (e.g., a digital data processor), disposed in an electronic processing and display module (EPDM) 104. While in this embodiment the EPDM is contained in a separate housing, in other embodiments, it can be integrated with the head 76 within a single housing. The processor 102 includes a signal processing module that is adapted to convert the output signal generated by the transmit/receive unit 78 into image strength drive signals suitable for application to an image display 106.\nIn addition to communicating with the detector, the processor 102 is also electrically coupled to a scan position sensor 110, e.g., via a communications channel 112, that can sense the position of the scan mechanism, and thereby that of the lens 92, relative to a predetermined reference position. A variety of scan position sensors, such as those discussed above, can be employed. The position sensor communicates the information regarding the position of the lens to the processor.\nSimilar to the previous embodiment, the imager 74 further includes a body location-determining subsystem 114 for determining the rigid body location of the head 76 on a surface (e.g., wall surface) over which it is moved to build up an image of a region behind the surface. The subsystem 114 can be in optical and/or mechanical communication with a surface over which the imager is translated. Typically, the subsystem 114 estimates the location and orientation of the head 76 via three parameters “Xh”, “Yh” and “θz”, where X, Y and Z denote orthogonal Cartesian coordinates. The X and Y denote coordinates in a plane (e.g., a planar surface of a wall over which the head is translated) and θz denotes an angle about the Z-axis that is perpendicular to that plane. By way of example, the origin of the coordinates can be established as the location and orientation of the imager upon its initial placement on the plane. This can be done automatically or by a user-issued command (which can also be employed to reset the location of the origin, if desired). The location-determining subsystem can then determine subsequent locations and orientations of the imager relative to the origin. A number of location-determining subsystems can be utilized. For example, in some embodiments, the subsystem can comprise two computer-mouse sensing mechanisms, separated by a known base line. Alternatively, the subsystem can be implemented by employing a plurality of inertial sensors.\nThe location-determining subsystem 114 transmits signals indicative of the location of the imager's head to the processor 102, e.g., via a communications channel 116. The processor utilizes these signals, together with those transmitted by the lens position sensor, to generate a set of image point coordinates in the coordinate space of the object region. The processor further correlates these image coordinates to the time-variation of the signal received from the detector to generate a reflectance image of the illuminated portion. In addition, the processor derives image position drive signals, based on the image coordinates and intensity of reflected signals originating from those coordinates, for application to the display 106. The image drive signals cause the display to present an image in which the brightness of an image point corresponds to the intensity of the detected reflected radiation originating from a coordinate point (e.g., an area or voxel in vicinity of that point) mapped to that image point.\nIn some embodiments, the frequency of the radiation generated by the source (e.g., the above transmit/receive unit 78) is modulated by a control signal. For example, in the above Gunnplexer 80 (\nIn some embodiments, the imager can provide an image of a two-dimensional area while the imager (e.g., imager housing) remains stationary (i.e., without the need to physically move the imager). One such exemplary embodiment 118 shown in\nA scan mechanism 126 scans the radiation, which is directed by the lens to the region 124, over a plurality of locations in that region. Preferably, although not required, the radiation is collimated or nearly collimated before entering scan mechanism 126. The lens and the scan mechanism can be configured to produce a plurality of radiation scan patterns to cover (illuminate) at least a portion, e.g., an object plane 124 a, within the region 124. The scan mechanism typically moves the radiation within a plane (e.g., a plane perpendicular to the lens's optical axis) so as to generate a desired radiation scan pattern. By way of example,\nBy way of example,\nAs another example,\nThe two reflective elements 201B and 202B are typically disposed in a periscope arrangement; that is, as shown in\nAs reflective element 201B rotates about axis C, the normal to the surface sweeps out a cone in space, where the vertex angle of this cone is twice the angular displacement, cc, between the normal and axis C. As the normal to the surface sweeps out this cone, the angle of incidence of the incident radiation and angle of reflection (and therefore the direction of the reflected radiation) varies in accordance with the laws of basic geometry. Circular arrow 210 notionally depicts the angular sweep of the beam reflected from reflective element 201B.\nA similar process occurs at reflective element 202B. Convoluted arrow 212 notionally depicts the complex angular sweep of the beam propagating toward lens 122.\nAs with the previously described two-dimensional scanner, disposing the two reflective elements in series, coupled with appropriate design and mirror drive commands, permits any scan pattern to be achieved. In this exemplary embodiment of a two-dimensional beam scanner the most natural area scan pattern is a floret scan similar to that illustrated in\nIn some embodiments of the invention operating at the wavelengths of interest, refractive prisms can be replaced by their diffractive counterparts, diffraction gratings.\nFinally, it will be understood by one of skill in the art that the embodiment of the Binary Fresnel Lens illustrated in\nIn each embodiment of two-dimensional scan mechanism discussed herein, the two scanning elements can be individually equipped with sensing devices (illustrated collectively as item 132 in\nWith reference to\nFurther, the processor generates a plurality of image drive signals for application to a display 136 for displaying the calculated image. In this embodiment, the processor and the display are disposed in separate enclosures with communication channels coupling the processor to the transmit/receive unit as well as the lens position sensor. In other embodiments, the various components of the imager can be housed in a single, preferably handheld, enclosure.\nIn some embodiments, an imager according to the teachings of invention is capable of acquiring images of a plurality of object planes located at different axial locations (e.g., at difference depths within an obstruction, such as a wall). For example,\nIn some embodiments, both transmit/receive unit 142 and lens are axially translated, while preferably maintaining the separation between the transmit/receive unit and the lens, to focus the radiation on planes at different axial locations.\nThe radiation reflected from each object plane can be detected by the transmit/receive unit, which generates an electrical signal in response to such detection and transmits the signal to a processor 150 for analysis. The imager further includes at least one lens position sensor 152 coupled to the rotational scanner and the focus-drive mechanism for determining the axial position as well as the rotational orientation of the lens (in some embodiments, the functionality of the position sensor 152 can be provided by two separate sensors, one for determining the lens's axial position and the other for determining the lens's rotational orientation). By way of example, the lens position sensor can be implemented as a shaft encoder. The sensor 152 transmits the information regarding the lens's axial position and rotational orientation to the processor 150. The processor employs this information to temporally correlate the detection signal generated by the detector to different object planes, and for each object plane, to a plurality of coordinate positions in that plane. In this manner, the processor can build up a plurality of images, each corresponding to a different depth within the object region. The processor can further generate image drive signals for application to a display 154 for displaying these images, e.g., as a three-dimensional image. In some cases, the processor can cause the display to present selected ones of these images, or present them in a selected sequence, or in any other desired manner.\nAlthough a transmit/unit is employed in the imager 138, in other embodiments, separate source and detector can be employed to generate and detect the radiation, for example, in a manner shown in the above imager 10 (\nIn another embodiment, the longitudinal chromatic aberration of the lens can be employed to focus radiation from a source at a plurality of at different depths (e.g., onto a plurality of object planes located at different axial distances from the lens). For example, the frequency of the radiation generated by a source can be varied (tuned) such that the chromatic aberration exhibited by the lens would result in focusing different frequencies at different axial locations from the lens.\nBy way of example,\nIn the exemplary imager 172, the lens 176 is disposed relative to an emitting aperture of a radiation source 182 at a distance equal to one of its focal lengths. The lens 176 converts an expanding cone of radiation generated by the source into a generally collimated radiation beam, and directs the collimated beam in a predetermined off-axis direction, as shown schematically in\nPreferably, the separation between the lenses 176 and 178 is substantially equal to the focal length of the fixed lens 178. In such a case, the fixed lens 178 forms the image 184 with an imaging cone of radiation whose chief ray is parallel to the optical axis. When the lens 178 is axially moved, the separation between the two lenses can deviate from this preferred value, although in some embodiments, both lenses can be moved so as to provide a depth of scan of the radiation while maintaining the separation between the lenses substantially equal to the preferred value.\nA prototype imager made based on the above teachings of the invention is discussed in the following example for further illustration of various aspects of the invention. It should, however, be understood that this is intended only for illustrative purposes, and not for indicating optimal performance of imagers according to the teachings of the invention, or to suggest that the specific arrangement of the various optical components and other design parameters utilized in the prototype are in any way meant to limit the scope of the invention.\nThe prototype imaging system based on the teachings of the invention was fabricated by utilizing a Gunn oscillator operating at a frequency of 24.15 GHz (a wavelength of about 12.4 millimeters) as the emitting source. The Gunn oscillator was coupled to a 10 dB feedhorn, with an exit aperture having dimensions of 15 by 11 mm, so as to output a cone of linearly polarized radiation at a power of 5 mW with an angular spread of +/−57 degrees.\nAfter passage through a 45-degree wire grid polarizer (composed of 30 gauge wires with 0.8 mm center spacing disposed on an Acrylic frame), the radiation from the oscillator was focused to a focal point by an F/0.6 quarter-wave focusing lens, formed of Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE). The lens was configured to image the radiation at a focal spot approximately 100 mm off the lens's optical axis. The distance of the source from the lens (about 125 mm) was substantially equal to that of the image from the lens, thus resulting in a magnification of about 1.\nA 32 mm thick birefringent quarter-wave plate, composed of an array of 2.5 mm wide slots cut into a LPDE sheet, was placed between the lens and the focal point. The slots of the quarter-wave plate were oriented at 45 degrees relative to the polarization axis of the incident beam, thus converting the beam's linear polarization to circular polarization. Upon reflection from an object at the focal point and a second passage through the quarter-wave plate, the beam's circular polarization was converted back to linear polarization, albeit with a 90-degree rotation relative to the polarization axis of the incident beam. The back-propagating radiation was then transmitted by the wire grid polarizer to a second Gunn oscillator having an integrated mixer (receiver). The optical system effectively operated in a confocal mode, where the diffracted radiation spot served to illuminate an object and radiation reflected (or scattered) from the object was focused back through a small aperture (the feedhorn entrance) to the mixer detector.\nThe emitter and receiver Gunn oscillators were tuned to have a frequency mismatch of approximately 2 MHz. This frequency mismatch causes radiation reflected by an object at the focal point and relayed to the receiver to generate a 2 MHz beat frequency signal. The beat frequency was amplified, low-pass filtered (frequency cutoff was about 500 Hz) and rectified. The rectified signal was, in turn, fed to a computer data acquisition system.\nBy rotating the lens at 300 revolutions-per-minute (rpm), a circularly scanned “probe spot” was generated. A magnet and a Hall effect sensor were utilized to measure the rotational position of the lens. Object imaging was accomplished by moving objects transversely through the scanning focused spot. A sheet of gypsum wallboard having a thickness of about ⅝ inches (15.9 cm) was placed between the lens and the focal plane of the probe spot. Radiation passing through the wallboard interacted with various test objects (e.g., wires, pipes, human skin, etc). A software program was utilized to use the rotational position of the lens so as to determine the Cartesian Coordinates of locations on the focal plane from which the detected reflected radiation originated. This information was utilized, in a manner discussed in detail above, to construct images of objects that were moved transversely through the scanned field.\nAs noted above, the above prototype was discussed only for illustrative purposes. The particular selections and arrangements of the optical components (e.g., source, lens and receiver) were made only by way of example. Alternative components and arrangements can also be utilized. For example, sources operating at other wavelengths can be employed.\nIt should be understood that various modifications can be made to the above illustrative embodiments without departing from the scope of the invention. For example, a variety of different lenses can be utilized. The lenses can be fabricated, e.g., as zone plates, parallel metal plates, dielectric materials. Further, the optics can be designed as confocal, near confocal, telecentric, or dark field. The scanning of the radiation can be one or two-dimensional (radial, tangential, raster, or a combination thereof). The camera body location-determining subsystem can be internal or external to the camera body. Further, the location sensing technology can be mechanical, optical, RF or any suitable mode.\n|Patente citada||Fecha de presentación||Fecha de publicación||Solicitante||Título|\n|US3401232 *||17 Abr 1967||10 Sep 1968||Chicago Aerial Ind Inc||Fiber optic scanning apparatus|\n|US3754271||3 Jul 1972||21 Ago 1973||Gte Sylvania Inc||Broadband antenna polarizer|\n|US3836258||15 Dic 1972||17 Sep 1974||Grumman Aerospace Corp||Angular orientation measuring apparatus|\n|US4227807||28 Abr 1978||14 Oct 1980||The Boeing Company||Holographic angle sensor|\n|US4850693||23 May 1988||25 Jul 1989||The United States Of America As Represented By The United States Department Of Energy||Compact portable diffraction moire interferometer|\n|US4995102||10 May 1988||19 Feb 1991||Hitachi, Ltd.||Scanning method used by laser radar and laser radar for carrying out the method|\n|US5020886||15 May 1989||4 Jun 1991||Japan Atomic Energy Research Institute||Fresnel lens type complex reflection system having a lens function|\n|US5081456||13 Abr 1988||14 Ene 1992||Hitachi, Ltd.||Method of detecting unknown object and apparatus therefor|\n|US5104225||25 Ene 1991||14 Abr 1992||Mitutoyo Corporation||Position detector and method of measuring position|\n|US5227800 *||24 Sep 1991||13 Jul 1993||Millitech Corporation||Contraband detection system|\n|US5493222 *||5 May 1993||20 Feb 1996||Mitsubishi Gas Chemical Company, Ltd.||Reflection type magnetooptic sensor head with faraday rotator|\n|US5541727||24 Feb 1995||30 Jul 1996||Rando;

{"text": "Dala is a two-player abstract strategy board game from Sudan, and played especially by the Baggara tribes. The game is also called Herding the Cows (or Herding the Bulls). It is an alignment game with captures similar to that of the game Dara. Players first drop their pieces onto the board, and then move them (herding the cows) orthogonally in an attempt to form 3 in-a-rows which allows a player to capture any of their opponent's piece on the board.\nThe player who reduces their opponent's number of pieces to two is the winner. The opponent can no longer form a 3-in-a-row with two pieces or fewer.\nA 6x6 square board is used. Each player has a set of 12 pieces of which one set is black, and the other is white.\nTraditionally, the board was played on a raised soft mud, and the lines of the board were drawn onto it and marked by holes called \"Nugar\". Each player had 12 sharpened sticks that would be placed into the holes during play. To differentiate the sticks, the bark was removed on one set of the sticks, while the other set would retain its bark.\nGame Play and Rules\n1. Players decide who will play the black and white pieces, and who will start first.\n2. A 3 in-a-row is defined as exactly three pieces of the same color adjacent to one another in an orthogonal direction. The player who forms the 3 in-a-row is allowed to capture one of their opponent's piece from anywhere on the board. This is known as a \"ta'na\". 4 in-a-rows or more are allowed to be created, but do not allow the player forming it to capture a piece from their opponent. The 3 in-a-row must be in an orthogonal direction, and therefore, diagonal 3 in-a-rows do not count also.\nTwo or more 3 in-a-rows can be formed in a single move by a player, however, it may only allow that player to capture a single piece from their opponent. No source clearly clarifies this matter.\n3. The Drop Phase is the first stage of the game. Players alternate their turns placing each of their 12 pieces, one piece per turn, onto the board. However, the four central squares of the board must first be filled. Afterwards, players may place their pieces on any vacant square on the board. During the Drop Phase, players can form 3 in-a-rows which allows for that player to capture an enemy piece from anywhere on the board.\n4. After each player has dropped their 12 pieces, the Movement Phase begins. Players alternate their turns moving one piece orthogonally onto a vacant adjacent square. The piece can form a 3 in-a-row by either moving onto a row or column of two adjacent pieces of its color, or leaving a row or column of four adjacent pieces of its color and thus leaving behind three adjacent pieces in-a-row.\n5. A special situation exist when a player has three of their pieces (that are adjacent to each other) on a row next to another row of two adjacent pieces (of the player's also) whereby one of the pieces of the former row can move back and forth between the two rows to form a 3 in-a-row on every turn, and thus capture a piece from the opponent on every turn. This situation is known as a \"bull\".", "label": "No"}

{"text": "Since 1997, the Srinagar – Barallulla Rail Link Project is one of the most challenging and costly projects. The Chenab railway bridge is a part of this project. This route covers some of the unthinkable terrains that make the project more perplexing. When the then-Prime Minister HD Deva Gowda started the project, he never assumed that it would take until 2021 to complete the highest railway bridge of the world connecting Kashmir with rest of India.\nHistory of Chenab Bridge\nAlthough proposed in 1997, the project was initiated in 1989 by Dogra rulers of the region. However, their idea was connecting Kashmir with Jammu with a rail link. Due to the partition of Indo-Pakistan into two countries, they halted the project for several decades and it was planned again in 1970 to connect the two destinations via Pathankot of Punjab.\nIn the past, the project was expected to be completed by 2002. However, the deadline missed and an extended time grace was given to be completed in 2007. However, due to several safety concerns, the process was temporarily halted in 2008. Later, a new deadline was given for the project as 2015. Sreedharan IRSC (ret) also called as Metro Man brought out the idea that the project was not safe to hold the bridge during landslide or earthquake. His suggestions were taken in and the project was restarted in 2016. Subsequently, several deadlines were missed in 2016 – 2017 and in 2019.\nAccording to Sanjay Gupta, the Managing Director of the Konkan Railways, the new deadline for this project is December 2021. New resources and enormous efforts are put by the department to complete this project within time. A huge chuck of work related to building this 359m tall bridge is in completion stage, according to Gupta.\nCost of Chenab Bridge\nThe cost of this project is estimated to come around INR 12,000 crores by the end of the deadline. This whooping cost is due to the tough manual work in a harsh terrain and life-threatening conditions. Best technologies and expert engineering minds are hired for the work, from around the world. According to Chief Engineer of Konkan Railways, R K Hedge, the rail project will be a marvel in the world of railways, once it is completed. More than 4000 technical staffs and low-level laborers are involved in this project, struggling through tunnel collapse, landslides, sand erosion, flooding, mudslide, and others.\nThis project runs through three different geographical regions namely, the Pir Panjal Thrust, Reasi Thrust, and Murree Thrust. Each thrust zone has a different geographical feature like faulted sand stone, loose conglomerate, silt stones, and others. This change in geology added additional challenges to the project, which is already riddled with problems like extremely cold temperature, very high altitude, harsh terrain, earthquake-prone zone, and others. Many new and extensive engineering inventions were made for building tunnel portals, bridges, approach roads, deep cutting, and others.\nRole of Konkan Railway Department\n53.6 km long section of the Katra-Dharam project is assigned to Konkan Railways for proper execution. This includes 46 km of tunnels, 4.6 km of bridges, and the remaining distance is filled with embankments, cuttings, and others. In addition to that, the department is also in charge for constructing roads and tunnels for the temporary bridges that currently provide access to the Katra-Dharam project region. This includes 160 km of roads. 70% of the road project is already completed, according to Gupta.\nThis project is assumed to provide considerable boost to tourism in this area. With better connectivity of Jammu and Kashmir with rest of the country, the economy of the region will increase too.\nRole of Indian Defence Force\nDue to the geographical location of the bridge in a politically unstable region, the risk of anti-national forces attacking the bridge is very high. Thus, the DRDO (Defence Research & Development Organization) and Indian Railways are working together to create a bridge which can with stand any major attack, including blasts. According to top officials, the bridge is currently being built with a special grade steel of 63mm thickness, which can withstand blasts.\nInteresting Facts about Chenab Railway Bridge\nDimensions of the Bridge:\nThis bridge is the tallest and longest railway bridge in the world. The bridge is 359m tall and has a length of 1,315m. For comparison, the height of Eiffel Tower of France is 324 m. Chenab Railway Bridge is a part of Srinagar – Barallulla Rail Link Project, which connects Kashmir with Udhampur. Chenab Railway Bridge is built over Chenab River.\nStrength of the Bridge\nThis project when completed will have a lifespan of 120 years and more.The bridge is built to resist high seed winds up to a speed of 260 km per hour. This is the first Indian bridge to be built with steel arches.The bridge can withstand a freezing temperature of -20 degree C.The steel is blast-proof providing security for terrorism activities. The bridge can withstand an earthquake with zone 5 intensity(the highest ever recorded in India).\nChallenges in Constructing the Bridge:\nThe bridge's main challenge is to be built without obstructing the Chenab River flow. Thus, the bridge is built in straight and curve designs, with changing radius. More than 1500 works are working around the clock with this project.\nUse of the Bridge\nJammu to Srinagar travel take 11 hours via road. After the construction of this bridge, the rail distance between the two destinations will fall to just five hours. This is expected to boost the economy and tourism in the region.", "label": "No"}

An ice dam is a ridge of ice that forms at the edge of a roof, preventing melting snow (and therefore, water) from draining off the roof. This water backs up behind the ice dam and can leak into your home, causing significant damage to walls, ceilings, insulation, and more\nIce and water shield is usually composed of a rubber membrane and a slip-resistant coating, depending on the manufacturer. It is extremely versatile and can be installed on a variety of steep slope roofing products such as asphalt shingles like 3-tab, composition shingles, architectural shingles, tile, slate, metal panels, and standing seam roofing systems. It is generally 3 ft. wide and is distributed in 1–2 sq. rolls in this region.\nWhat are benefits of ice and water shield?\n- Seals around fasteners: Due to the rubberized membrane, it resists leakage.\n- Adhesion to the decking: It firmly bonds to the decking of the roof without heat or special adhesive.\n- Watertight lapping: All laps in the product make water tight bonds due to the adhesive backing and rubber membrane construction.\n- Protects decking under all steep slope roofing products.\n- Potentially re-roofable: Due to the rubberized nature of the product, it is potentially re-roofable and can be left in place after tear-off of a roof surface.\nIce and water shields can be required by local building codes\nIf you have a closed valley configuration on your roof, a product like this is required by local code. All closed valleys require a valley liner per municipal code to protect into the event of wind-driven or ice-driven water penetration. In Kansas, we are far enough south that code requirements of ice and water shield being installed on eaves, rakes, hips, and ridges do not apply. In the northern region of the United States, this is required per municipal codes.\nPay attention to underlayment in roofing estimates\nThis is one very specific item to review in all your proposals for roof replacement to ensure it is included to meet minimum code requirements or as an upgraded feature to your roof replacement. Even if you have metal valleys, this product can still be installed and will provide superior protection.\nLooking for a new roof or need a roof inspection in the Wichita, KS area?\nIf you are seeking a roof replacement and would like a free inspection of your existing roof system (some exclusions apply), please do not hesitate to reach us at (316) 665-8482 or request a quote online.", "label": "No"}

{"text": "Deep learning models often encounter the problem of overfitting when the amount of training data is limited, for example, one can expect that the given training data is insufficient compared to the complexity of deep models. The idea of meta-learning  can be employed to alleviate this problem. Meta-learning methods randomly sample data from the training set to simulate a test scenario, which is called a task or an episode hereinafter. Note that one episode contains a support set and a query set, the former of which consisting of a small number of labeled samples, while the latter consisting of unlabeled samples with labels to be predicted. In a meta-learning paradigm, thousands of randomly constructed tasks are used to train the model so that learned parameters can extract transferable knowledge, which makes a learned model generalize on unseen tasks.\nOn the basis of meta-learning, many recently proposed few-shot classification methods [20, 17, 11, 15, 14, 18] have gained better generalization abilities than universal deep learning models in few-shot paradigms. Some of them [11, 15, 14] make use of distance metrics to measure distances between embeddings of two samples; however, they can not make full use of the overall information of support samples and a query sample.  treats few-shot classification as a sequence-to-sequence problem, which does not suffer from the shortcomings of those using distance metrics. Notably,  proposes an attentive meta-learner called SNAIL with the help of temporal convolutions  and soft attention . It claims to be able to learn a more flexible strategy. However, when dealing with few-shot learning tasks, SNAIL requires the embeddings of samples to be fed into the meta-learner as a sequence with each time step of the sequence being a sample-label pair. However, samples in each task are not spread across time, therefore it is hard for SNAIL to learn a feasible model. It is also reported in  that the authors didn’t train the model successfully with an LSTM-based  meta-learner on miniImagenet  with a 4-layer feature extractor.\nTo overcome the problem that some metric-based few-shot learning methods can not make full use of the overall information of support samples and a query sample. In this paper we propose to construct a channel vector sequence which is combined with the whole information of support samples and a query sample. In this paradigm, each sample is sent into a convolutional neural network, and a corresponding multi-channel feature map is generated. After that, each feature map is converted into a embedding vector (We will call this vector as channel vector, hereinafter) of a specific scale through a fully connected network. At last, the channel vector sequence is spliced by the corresponding channel vectors of support samples and a query sample in the original channel order. After the channel vector sequence is generated, the rest to do is to extract the internal relationship among the channels and use such information to perform few-shot classification. A natural idea is to apply LSTM  or GRU  on channel vector sequence to infer the relationship.\nExperimental results show that the spliced channel vector sequence with LSTM or GRU model can get similar results with the state-of-the-art methods in few-shot classification tasks on CUB  and cross-domain scenario . This is because channel vector sequence contains distinguish features which implicit the relationship between query sample and support set samples, and the sequence relationship can also be established on channel vector sequence through back propagation method . However, both LSTM and GRU have a disadvantage. They need to use the output of previous step as the input of current step, so none of these methods support parallel training.\nTo solve the problem that LSTM and GRU cannot train channel vector sequence in parallel and get more distinguishing features, we proposed forget-update module constructed by forget-update blocks, which uses 1-dimensional causal dilated convolution as base block, so it can be trained in parallel. And every single forget-update block has two parts: a forget block and a update block. Fig. 1 give the motivation of forget-update module. Specially, the forget block equipped with a forget gated activation  which can optimize existing information, and the update block equipped with an update gated activation  which can generate new information and establish dense connections. Experimental results demonstrated the effectiveness of forget-update module on few-shot classification benchmarks. The proposed forget-update module can get state-of-the-art results in few-shot classification tasks.\nThe main contribution of this paper is twofold. First, we proposed to use the channel vector sequence which contains the overall information of support samples and a query sample to infer categories of query samples. When the proposed channel vector sequence combined with sequence prediction methods, such as LSTM  and GRU , the relationship between the query samples and the support samples can be inferred. Experimental results show that we can get competitive results with the state-of-the-art few-shot learning methods on CUB  and cross-domain scenario  when combines channel vector sequence with LSTM  or GRU . Second, we design forget-update module stacked of forget-update blocks, which can produce more distinguish features in few-shot classification tasks. Experiments show that when combines the forget-update module with channel vector sequence, we can achieve state-of-the-art results on miniImagenet , CUB  and cross-domain scenario .\nCode and datasets will be released once the article is accepted.\n2 Related Work\n2.1 Metric-based Few-shot Leaning\nA number of few-shot classification methods are metric-based, i.e., they learn a set of projection functions that project the inputs to an embedding space, and a certain distance metric that measures the distance between any two embeddings. Those methods aim to make the samples from the same category closer in the embedding space, while those from different categories being distant from each other. For instance, Siamese Network  extracts features from a pair of samples and calculates the similarity relationship between the two feature vectors, thus the classification is done by comparing the samples in the query set and the support set in such a manner. Prototypical Network  is based on Euclidean distance metrics and uses the mean of embeddings from the same category as the prototype of that category. Relation Network  is similar to Prototypical Network, except that it employs a neural network to learn a deep instance metric, instead of using a fixed one.\n2.2 Meta-learner based Few-shot learning\nSome other methods construct a meta-learner that learn to make updates to the parameters to a traditional learner designed for scenarios with a great amount of data.  provided a method to initialize the parameters of the traditional learner in a way that a few gradient descent steps with a small amount of training data from a new task will lead to good generalization performance on that task.  proposed to use the embedding vectors of the newly seen samples to imprint weights for the new classes on the rear of the base network. The traditional learner used in [qiao2018few] is a convolutional-network-based network, and the method proposed in [qiao2018few] learns to update the parameters of the last full-connected layer of the base network, based on the newly seen samples.\n2.3 Time Series Prediction Methods\nAside from the recurrent neural networks (RNNs for short), a lot of recently proposed methods have been proven to work well in time series tasks, and some of them even show better performance than RNNs do. proposed a network architecture called Transformer to solve the sequence to sequence problem. The Transformer is built based on attention mechanism instead of RNNs, which makes it more parallelizable and requires less time to train. Recently, a 1-dimensional convolutional neural network architecture named TCN  is proposed by Bai et al. and shows its effectiveness in sequence modeling problems. By combining causal convolution, dilated convolution, and shortcut connection, TCN is able to make use of information in a long history.\n3 Proposed Approach\nIn this section, after defining the problem, we describe the channel vector sequence construction module, the causal dilated convolution block, the forget-update module and the prediction module used in our method one by one in detail. The overall framework of the proposed method is shown in Fig. 2.\n3.1 Problem Definition\nWe first give the general setup and notations of few-shot classification in this paper. The purpose of few-shot classification is to build a model\n, which can classify unlabeled samples with the help of a few labeled samples. Each few-shot classification task(or episode) contains a labeled support set , an unlabeled query set and an output set , which satisfies that the elements of and do not intersect. The output set is the set of the labels of all the samples in . We only consider -way -shot few-shot classification paradigm in this paper. In such a paradigm, every support set contains exactly type of class and each class has samples, the query set contains some unlabeled samples that belong to the classes in . The output set includes the corresponding labels of elements in the query set .\nwhere is the number of classes, is the sample number of each class in support set , and is the size of the query set. The subscripts of indicate that is the -th sample in the -th support class.\nAs in other state-of-the-art few-shot classification methods [11, 20, 15, 14, 18], our method trains a meta-learner to fit the few-shot classification task through minimizing the loss of its predictions over the query set as in Equation 4.\nwhere indicates the meta-learner and\nis the loss function. We need to train the meta-learnerwith thousands of randomly sampled tasks under the constraint of loss function .\n3.2 Channel Vector Sequence Construction Module\nFor each task , we first extract the feature map of each sample in the support set and the query set . When deal with -shot tasks where , for each class we calculate an element-wise average over the feature maps of all the samples in that class to form a class-level feature map. The class-level feature map for the -th class can be formulated by Equation 5.\nwhere is a feature extractor ( for grayscale images and for RGB images). We use where is a 4-layer 2-dimensional convolution block and is a dimension reduction block. The output of is a feature map consisting of channels. then squeezes the information in each channel to a -dimensional vector use two consecutive fully-connected layers. Note that we adopt and according to experiments.\nAfter that, we perform channel-level stitching between all class-level feature maps in the support set and feature maps of images in the query set . Equation 6 shows how to stitch channels.\nwhere is the channel concatenate function which is used to splice according to the order of channels. , is the number of channels, and is the feature dimension of each sample. is called channel vector sequence in this paper.\nThen, we transform few-shot classification problem into a sequence prediction problem on the channel vector sequence. We formalize the prediction model as Equation 7.\nwhere indicates -th element in query set , c is the -th channel in , is a sequence prediction model, is the label of .\n3.3 Causal Dilated Convolution Block\nThe causal dilated convolution blocks are the basis of the proposed method. We use causal dilated convolution blocks on channel vector sequence. Causal convolutions produce an output of the same length as the input and the newly generated data only depends on the data information before the current point. In addition, dilated convolution is also adopted to improve the range of receptive field on the channel vector sequence. The dilation factor increased exponentially and can be formalized as Equation 8.\nwhere is the kernel size and indicates the -th layer of forget-update module. The detail of forget-update module is described in section 3.4.\nWith the help of causal dilated convolution block, we can cover a very large receptive field with a few layers. Causal dilated convolution block is first used for generating raw audio in .\n3.4 Forget-Update Module\nForget-update module consists of stacked forget-update blocks. The detail of forget-update module is described in Algorithm 1 and the forget-update block is illustrated in Fig. 3. The forget block is designed to upgrade existed information and the update block is designed to reproduce new information and establish dense connection. The forget block generates data which has the same size as the input. Forget block can be formalized as Equation 9.\nwhere is causal dilated convolution function,\nis a sigmoid function,is dilated rate, is kernel size, is the i-th input to the i-th forget-update block in forget-update module.\nThe update model will generate data which has the same sequence length as the input, and the dimension of each channel vector is set to . The channel vector sequence is used as the input of the first forget-update block in the proposed model. The output channel vector sequence will be used as input for the next forget-update block. The process of update block can be formalized as Equation 10,11,12.\nis hyperbolic tangent activation function.\nAnd finally, we stitch and in feature dimension direction as the output of forget-update block.\n3.5 Prediction Module\nThe prediction module is a three-layer fully connected network, which uses Relu as the activation function. The weights of the prediction model are initialized using the method described in  and weight normalization  is applied. The prediction module predicts values which represent the similarity relationship between the query sample’s feature map and the class-level feature maps of those support classes.\n4 Experiments and Discussion\nIn this section, we evaluate the proposed method and some state-of-the-art few-shot classification methods in three scenarios, including generic object recognition, fine-grained classification, and cross-domain scenario classification.\n4.1 Datasets and Scenarios\nFor the scenario of generic object recognition, we use the widely used miniImagenet dataset . miniImagenet is a subset of Imagenet  and consists of 100 classes, each of which contains 600 images with a size of 8484. We follow the split used in  and split the dataset into 64, 16 and 20 classes for training, validation and testing, respectively.\nFor the scenario of fine-grained classification, we use the CUB dataset . It contains 11,788 images from 200 classes in total. In our experiments, we split the dataset into 100, 50 and 50 classes for training, validation and testing, respectively.\nFor the cross-domain scenario (miniImagenet CUB. For simplicity, we will call it cross hereinafter), we follow the setting used in , which uses miniImagenet as the training set while using the 50 CUB validation classes for validation and the 50 CUB testing classes for testing. This is to test out the performance of our method when the effect of domain shift is relatively significant.\n4.2 Implementation Details\n first describes the meta-learning training setup in few-shot classification areas. All the methods in this paper are trained with meta-learning strategy. Specially, each prediction in a task (or episode) only relies on a corresponding support set. In the meta-training process, we train 60,000 episodes when using CUB or cross as the dataset, and 120,000 episodes with miniImagenet. We adopt the -way -shot few-shot classification paradigm. In each episode, we randomly choose classes to use in this episode. We then randomly sample images for each previously chosen class to make up the support set. The size of the query set is fixed to 16. 1-shot and 5-shot classification are evaluated on miniImagenet dataset. 1-shot, 3-shot and 5-shot classification are evaluated on CUB and cross datasets. In the meta-training process, the model, which has the best accuracy when evaluated in validation set, is saved. And the saved model is used to evaluate the test accuracy. In the meta-testing process, we test the model with 600 episodes and adopt the average of all the prediction results as the testing accuracy.\nIn this paper, all the methods are trained from scratch and adopt Adam  as optimizer. The optimizer takes an initial learning rate of 0.001, and we reduce the learning rate by 10% when the testing accuracy stagnates in 7 consecutive training steps. For each convolutional layer in , a Batchnorm  regularization module is inserted between the convolution and the activation function. All the convolutions uses 64 kernels and the activation function is ReLU . A max-pooling operation is added to the first two layers. We only apply normalization, scale and center-crop operation on the input images without data enhancement. We reimplemented MatchingNet , ProtoNet  and RelationNet  on CUB and cross.\nThe proposed model contains two forget-update modules. Every forget-update module contains () forget-update blocks. The filter_size of all forget-update blocks in the first and second forget-update module is set to 16 and 32, respectively.\n4.3 Experiment Results\nOur Experiments are designed in the purpose of to answer these questions:\nHow does the proposed method compare to exist methods?\nEvaluate the effects of forget block and update block.\nTo validate the effectiveness of the proposed method, we compare it with MatchingNet , ProtoNet  and RelationNet  on miniImagenet, CUB datasets, and cross-domain scenario. In addition, we also compared with MAML  and SNAIL  on miniImagenet.\nTable 1, 2, 3 illustrate the object recognition capability on miniImagenet, CUB and cross-domain scenario, respectively. All the methods use a 4-layer convolutional network as backbone. Table 1 shows that the proposed method achieves the best performance in 5-way 1-shot paradigm and achieves the second-best performance in 5-way 5-shot paradigm. ProtoNet has a big improvement over the proposed method. This is most likely because ProtoNet is trained in a 20-way 5-shot paradigm, and tested in a 5-way 5-shot paradigm, as a result, it gains greater discrimination on object recognition task in 5-way 5-shot paradigm. Table 2 shows that the proposed method has made great progress on both 5-way 3-shot and 5-way 5-shot tasks and achieve a second place on 5-way 1-shot task. Table 3 shows that the proposed method has a larger improvement on 5-way 1-shot and 5-way 3-shot tasks than the comparative methods, and achieves sub-optimal result on 5-way 5-shot task.\nTable 4 shows the results of the ablation experiments. TCN  is the baseline method which uses causal dilated convolution with identity connection  and uses similar channel configuration as the proposed method. +update method uses the proposed update block but no forget block. The proposed method uses the forget-update module and put channel vector sequence as input. Table 4 shows that the forget block and update block can improve the prediction performance on miniImagenet, CUB and cross.\nTable 5 shows the prediction results of GRU  and LSTM  methods with the proposed channel vector sequence as input. LSTM and GRU hidden layer dimensions are both set to 512, the number of layers are set to 2 and bidirectional mode are both set to false. Table 5 shows that most results of LSTM and GRU methods have a better performance than the state-of-the-art few-show classification methods in CUB and cross-domain scenario, and the performance of LSTM and GRU on miniImagenet have competitive results with matchnet . It reflects that the proposed channel vector sequence can be combined with time sequence models, and this method can be used to infer the similarity relationship between query sample and support set samples. It also indicates that the proposed method almost completely exceeds LSTM and GRU, which means that the proposed forget-update module is more suitable for the proposed channel vector sequence than LSTM and GRU.\nFrom the experimental results, we find that the pipeline which uses channel vector sequence as input and uses forget-update module as relation discriminator can get state-of-the-art results for few-shot classification. We think that the update block is equivalent to a dense connection mechanism, which can generate new information when passing through each update block. The forget block can modify existing information with learned weight. The combination of LSTM and GRU with the proposed channel vector sequence can get state-of-the-art results on CUB and cross-domain scenario, indicates that the similarity relationship between class-level features and query sample’s feature is implicated in the proposed channel vector sequence.\nIn this paper, we study the spliced channel vector sequence of support samples and a query sample. Experimental results show that putting the spliced channel vector sequence as the input of LSTM and GRU can get competitive results with state-of-the-art few-shot classification methods in the CUB dataset and cross-domain scenario (miniImagenet CUB). This shows that the sequence prediction methods can be used to infer the similarity relationship with the help of channel vector sequence. We also proposed a forget-update module, and the proposed module shows promising results on few-shot classification tasks when using the proposed channel vector sequence as input.\n-  Diederik P.

{"text": "Brabus 850 6.0 Biturbo: Enlarged motor gives E63 AMG 625kW/1150Nm to play with\nFew have accused the Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG of being underpowered, but that hasn't stopped Brabus from giving the fastest factory E-Class a bit more spice.\nThe new 850 6.0 Biturbo is seen by Brabus as a replacement for the 800 E V12 but, instead of its predecessor's 12-cylinder engine, the new car is powered a twin-turbo V8.\nBased on the 5.5-litre unit used in the E63 AMG, the 850's engine has been bored and stroked to 5.9 litres. Equipped with two Brabus turbochargers the 5.9-litre V8 churns out 625kW or 850 metric horsepower, hence the name. Brabus claims that the highly modified V8 can produce 1450Nm of torque, but has been limited to just 1150Nm in order to preserve the rest of the drivetrain.\nA seven-speed dual-clutch automated transmission sends all that \"Sturm und Drang\" to either the rear wheels or all four. Rear-wheel drive 850s can complete the 0-100km/h standard in 3.7 seconds, while all-wheel drive versions take only 3.1 seconds to do the same dash. Top speed is electronically limited to between 300km/h and 350km/h depending on the owner's choice of tyres and final drive ratio.\nIn comparison the E63 AMG S-Model offers only 430kW/800Nm from its 5.5-litre twin-turbocharged V8. This allows the big sedan to run the 0-100km/h sprint in 4.1 seconds in rear-wheel drive form and in 3.6 seconds when fitted with all-wheel drive.\nThe 850 6.0 Biturbo is available as either a sedan or wagon; both versions are fitted with a carbonfibre aero kit as standard.

{"text": "Oct 28, 2009\nSure… just come on over!\nHere is the “nightmare” before paint, but fully assembled. (There is a moon but it’s not going to be painted the same color so I have not glued it in yet.\nAh! I knew I had seen it.\nNo cake. I'm on a diet.\nMassey, I have zero experience or knowledge of 3D printing.\nIs that full thickness, or hollow underneath?\nHow many watts is the printer draw?\nAnd if you don't mind my asking, what is the approximate material cost of resin for printing that one scene?\nWatts… not sure, never calculated it. The printer is a Ender 3 V2 and the print took 41 hours 34 minutes. I have 20% fill so not hollow, but not solid either. It used about 1/3 of a 1kg roll of filament. It was the largest thing I have printed to date. So the cost would be less than $5 since I paid about $20 for the roll of filament. I am going to run this again in all black and that filament was about $30 for a 1kg roll so it will cost about $6 for that print.\nI have printed about 50 40’ containers so far and that has cost me about $5. Commercial containers are about $25 for 3. Now granted the detail is a bit better and they are already painted, but the ones I have been printing are for a container yard and detail isn’t as big of an issue. Small things like tunnel portals, bridge pads, and abutments will cost me pennies to make myself, and I get the options of scaling them however I see fit for my model.\nSo the filament is like a thread, not a liquid resin?\nSounds very economical.\nCan you post a picture of the bottom?\nPHOTO CROPPING TABLE\nHas anyone used an old school photo cropping table as a sort of DupliCutter?\nI found this photo cropping table at a thrift store, a whole $4.00. It measures 14\"x17\" overall.\nThe back side has an adjustment for border width. A Fiskars rotary mat slid under the frame to the boarder stop, leaves zero clearance under the fixed edges of the frame. This will keep sheet goods from going under the frame to the boarder stop.\nI've been working on some ideas for mounting a few tools and fixtures on a board the same size as the catch tray of my watchmakers bench. It would be interchangeable with catch tray. I could slide the tray out, slide the fixture board in and be dimensioning walls or strip wood without digging through drawers to retool.\nIt might be a couple months before I get back to this but I will post an update.\nSo in the case of this printer the medium that I print with is a spool of plastic. It’s about 1/8th inch in diameter and it is melted and extruded onto the build surface. This is just one type of 3D printing, it good for larger things, and has more strength than the resin type. And speaking of resin type printers, they use a liquid that hardens when exposed to UV light. I also own this type of printer, but I don’t use it for large things, it’s better suited for high detail items. The resin printer can create some really detailed models, but the resin is not as strong as the PLA is.\nS4 complete with decoder swap. Runs butter smooth now at slow speed. Replaced the plastic grating over the nose vent with a metal etched section cut from some box car roof walks I had. A little panel line detail added as well to the vents and louvers for some added depth\nHere's another DCC conversion. I forgot I had this Kato M250 which is part of a set I bought new a decade or so back. Never ran as I'd already converted to DCC when I got this but I thought it was kind of unique so I had to get it. Pretty straight-forward install where I was able to re-use the factory light board with some surgical cuts to the wire traces, add a jumper then wire from the cab back to the container section. One of the few installs where I didn't have to add my own lights for the effects I wanted so that sped things up a bit. I still have to add a light decoder to the other end of the train which is a dummy unit version of this engine.\nRight now I'm using an ESU micro-next18 lokpilot but plan to swap it out with their sound decoder once I get another in hand. I finally get to see this work after 10 or so years of ownership lol.\nHaving just got in some lighted signals I was chomping at the bit to go through a dry run of setting up a couple to see if I thought of everything I needed to get it all working via the DCC bus. I'm getting everything ready for a new layout I like to get this all planned so I can minimize surprises as I'm going through the build process.\nI use the ESU Cab Control command station which contains presets in the accessory screen for all the different types of signals I plan to use. That is a good first step. Next is the signal decoder. I stuck with ESU for two reasons: I already have the lokprogrammer hardware/software which makes setting up the decoders a cinch (kind of... once one gets the hang of it) and the second reason being that again they have all the presets in the lokprogrammer for the signal types I plan to use.\nSo with all that it's a simple matter of firing up the programmer software then dragging and dropping the different presets on the screen where one can then follow the resulting wiring schematic or customize lighting outputs such as when a block signal and distance signal need to be setup to work in tandem. There was a bit of trial and error to start as this was my first time going through the process but mostly due to terminology and english not being the first language of whoever authored the manual.\nOnce the decoder is programmed I move it over to the command station, create the signal using their presets in the accessory panel and done... simple as that. Later I can add in block detection for the signals I want to automate.\nNow that I've gone through the setup and am a bit more familiar with the signal decoder I'm finding that it can also be used for other layout lighting with or without special effects in place of NCE light it decoders I normally use. NCE has a few more built in effects but most can be simulated adjusting parameters in the signal pilot programming interface.\nSummary: I have everything I need to get the signaling on the layout except a few more signals which are on backorder.\nThis setup is really slick and the signals themselves are top notch.\nYard shunting signal:\nYard exit signal:\nSo the other day I got some parts from Kato… but you already know that, I posted about it on the “Latest Purchase” thread. Well the other day I installed the new light board and a new coupler on the train wreck that is my Kato TGV Thalys. Well tonight I installed a decoder into the locomotive. It was NOT plug and play like it should have been. This set has lived a pretty rough existence so I had to basically rebuild the locomotive electrically, and secure the light board with capton tape. I finally got it good, so I decided to put the entire 10 car train on my little loop… and then the locomotive struggled to get around the loop. Once it got back to me, I found a truck that didn’t look right, and sure enough a bent wheel. Great… one more thing to repair.\n@Massy... crap! Are you going to get all new axles for the truck or just the one that is bent? Maybe the insulation (plastic insulation ring) on the wheel has gone to poop?\nI did a DCC upgrade to a steamer that I hadn't ran in years. Get it all installed and pickup was horrible. As I was taking it apart to investigate I noticed some of the plastic covering the pickup plates (engine and tender) looked a little melted. Then my memory came back that it had shorted on the track and fried the contact strips which is why I shelved it. This was over 10 years ago and back then I had to go through the dealer for parts which none were ever able to get for me. Now the manufacturer sells parts direct and fortunately I was still able to order what I needed. Super lucky as the pickup systems are usually the first thing to sell out and become unobtanium for these older locos.\nSo the axle itself is bent, the wheel is all good as far this has no traction tire or anything like that on it. The truck frame seems fine now that the axle is out of it. I’m hoping to just have to replace the one bad axle but we will see what I can find.\nYou know the old saying,,\n\"One bad axle ruins the bunch!\"\n(Sorry I couldn't keep that to myself.)\nApplied decals and mirrors on the tractor.\nOne of the things that I really like about Micro-Trains products is that you can always get replacement parts for them.\nWhen I noticed that a hatch had gone missing from one of my favorite covered hoppers I ordered some spares from the factory.\nThese came un-painted, about 15 in a small bag. I found a close enough match in my selection of paints.\nAfter painting and installation, the covered hopper is ready to be returned to service.\nThat's really neat. I like the slowed pace of the signal aspect changes, with realistic dimming and brightening sequences just like the real thing.\nYeah, I'm super pleased with how well it works... ESU did an excellent job to the point where I see no need to change the default settings other than setting up night mode (that had some cool surprises too). Originally I was going to use all semaphore style signals but I had to try these more modern versions and glad I did... not to mention they are also less spendy lol.\nSound upgrade complete in the Kato M250. Added in a TCS power pack to help with dirty track spots. Zimo 8mmx12mm speaker/enclosure makes excellent sound/presence. I couldn't find video of a 250 sounding it's horn so I did a little extrapolating with other Japanese locos which many seem to use similar horns as to here in North America.", "label": "No"}

{"text": "LD Series Autonomous Mobile Robots\nSelf-navigating autonomous Mobile Robot (AMR).\nYou are currently viewing the Omron| How 5G technology can expand your options for autonomous mobile robots page.\nThe world has been abuzz for the past couple of years over the deployment of 5G (short for “fifth generation”) networks. The topic came up in a recent episode of our podcast featuring special guest Mike Chen, Omron’s Senior Director of Solutions and Technology Development, and he provided insights into how 5G could transform automation.\nOne thing that came to mind immediately was the Omron autonomous mobile robot (AMR) solution. Let’s take a look at how these robots complete their tasks and how a 5G network can enhance their operation.\nOmron AMRs have proprietary software and controls that let them intelligently navigate around people and unplanned obstacles. Designed for developers, integrators, and end users, an AMR system can be customized for a variety of applications and payloads and can be fully functional within a day.\nEven without a 5G network, autonomous mobile robots are an extremely versatile solution that can optimizing routing and adapts to changing conditions on the fly. These fully autonomous, intelligent vehicles increase throughput, reduce machine dwell time, eliminate errors, improve material traceability, and allow employees to focus on tasks that require complex human skills.\nOmron’s mobile robot technology has always been managed on a local network in a facility where everything must be on Wi-Fi and all the job assignments must be done via a Wi-Fi network. However, the space over which AMRs can be deployed will be even greater with a 5G network. In fact, 5G is expected to provide the following AMR-related benefits:\nAs 5G technology becomes more prevalent in the future, our customers will be able to utilize their private 5G networks to locate every single robot on their facility and securely manage all jobs without needing to create a predefined layout. Basically, this results in a layout-free facility where customers can physically optimize their production floor while deploying AMRs.\nWhat’s great about a private 5G network is that it can be deployed with a much wider footprint. You’ll be able to deploy your robots in a wider space without having to be extremely careful about where the cutoff point is. With Wi-Fi, determining the cutoff point can require quite a bit of effort.\nIn addition, the built-in security measures that 5G technology enables are a major advantage. You can use the authentication function on the 5G network to make sure that the job assignment is being presented from the right source and that you’re reaching the right robot.\nInterested in learning more about our AMR technology?\nMike Chen, Sr. Director of Solutions & Technology Development, joins hosts Carrie Lee and Kenny Heidel to talk about the evolution of factories with advanced production capabilities and other new tech...\nHow do we make sense of terms like Industry 4.0?

Including when it was REALLY close to release in April.\n“Well, when Specter Knight came on the Switch and did really well, we were like ‘Woohoo, now we can do whatever we want with King of Cards’ and so it kind of turned into a big celebration of all the Shovel Knight games and all the things that we wanted to put in. Everything that didn’t make it in was because we didn’t have time or for some other reason. Basically, just like every idea that we ever had, we just stuffed it all into King of Cards. And so, as a result, it became this big, giant, overblown thing with a bunch of levels. It’s funny, and it’s strange, and there is a giant card game minigame. But that also kind of blew the schedule out a little bit.\nThere are the amiibos, Shovel Knight Showdown, and King of Cards, and we decided that none of those elements were gonna come out until all of those elements were ready.

{"text": "Monitoring PM 2.5 Air quality dashboard\nLike most people believe or think, Indoor air quality monitoring sensor data visualization tools is not just about knowing about visible pollutants like smoke or smog. Volatile Organic Compounds popularly abbreviated as VOC is difficult to trace and are extremely dangerous to human health. If exposed to on a daily basis, it can compound long-term health effects and can even hamper day-to-day activities. Hence it is important to monitor VOC and other harmful pollutants on a regular basis in order to ensure a productive industrial work environment. Proper ventilation of indoor spaces as a means to reduce exposure to SARS-CoV-2 has received considerable attention – an EU study\nHow Indoor air quality impacts the spread of infections\nIt is an alarming fact that the quality of the air has a large influence on industrial worker productivity. Studies and research conducted worldwide affirm the fact that the worse the air quality, productivity was directly proportional. Be it ozone levels outdoor or particulate matter (PM 2.5) indoors, both had a direct impact on worker efficiency and productivity. Maintaining good indoor air quality should be a priority across industries or verticals and I am sure you also might have felt uneasy while working in an environment with high levels of particulate matter.\nWhat is Indoor air quality & wellbeing?\nThough PM concentration level increase is a concern outdoors as well, the effect is much worse indoors due to poor ventilation. The particulate matter compounds are generally undetectable to the human eye but can have an adverse effect on health when inhaled. Most modern buildings are centrally air-conditioned and have generally a sealed environment.\nIndoor Air quality, infection control, and virus protection\nindoor air quality problems. This lack of ventilation will allow the particulate matter to settle inside the space which may be initially unharmful but can be harmful if rises to alarming levels. In most countries, this is becoming a major concern across each industry and vertical. The productivity issue is more so evident in public places such as hospitals, restaurants, warehouses, factories, etc, where the people move around in a confined area or space. As a result, they are constantly exposed to pollutants matters and thus the risk of virus spread.\nBenefits of monitoring, and improving indoor air quality\nMost companies still feel that anything related to indoor air quality monitoring improvement is a high-cost technology, and refrain from implementing the same. But the reality is vastly different, as studies have shown that companies that opted to implement methods to improve indoor air quality have saved close to $20 billion annually due to an increase in productivity. The sensor data visualization tool provides the necessary alerts and notifications.\nIndoor air quality dashboard with sensor data visualization tools\nWhat is acceptable indoor air quality dashboard alert ? The primary aim of any company should be to curb the pollutants in any which way possible. But no matter how much you try to clean your indoors and even HVAC units, there would be a residual particulate matter that affects the air quality. Especially on a factory floor, where there would be work going on 24*7, it is y important to know the level of particulate & CO2 levels at a given point in time. Proper ventilation is extremely important, and one must ensure that there should be a constant flow of air inside the premises. Our Bluetooth sensors provide alerts when the indoor air quality turns poor, so the operations take corrective measures. Integrating our sensor modules into existing BMS solutions through the MQTT API will help in controlling exhaust fans and other air control devices.\nMy indoor air quality dashboard – Global studies have pointed out that indoor air quality can play a big part in improving well-being and reducing the spread of viruses and infections. But for that, the organization must have technologies deployed to monitor IAQ values at regular intervals. Indoor air quality monitoring solutions can help you assess vital data which in turn can aid in improving your organization through reduced absenteeism, healthcare costs, loss of productivity, etc. To summarize, the better the indoor quality of air, the greater the workforce productivity and well-being and the reduced risk of infection and virus spread.\nCall us to know more about Indoor air quality in schools, and monitoring dashboard solutions.", "label": "No"}

It was important to ensure uniform heating and reliable temperature maintenance.\nFor this induction heating scenario UltraFlex engineers recommended the use of an induction heater from the UltraFlex UltraHeat S series. UltraHeat S are small and efficient 2kW induction heaters that operate with a water-cooled or air-cooled remote heat station. All systems utilize the latest switching power supply technology and adaptive digital phase control, which efficiently operate in wide frequency ranges.\nThe efficiency of two different induction coils had been evaluated in this induction heating scenario. At kW of power, the preheat cycle for the smaller tube was accomplished within 7 seconds and for the bigger tube - within 8 seconds.

{"text": "In today’s digital landscape, e-commerce has become a crucial part of many businesses’ strategies, and it’s essential to monitor and enhance the checkout experience to maximize sales and customer satisfaction.\nThe Checkout Journey report in GA4 is specifically tailored to address these needs.\nTable Of Content\nWhat is Checkout Journey report?\nCheckout Journey report is a valuable tool for website owners and marketers to understand how users navigate through the checkout process on their website. This report provides insights into the steps users take as they progress from adding items to their cart to completing a purchase.\nThe funnel in the Checkout journey report is a closed funnel; it includes only users who began at the first step (the Begin checkout step) and didn’t begin at another step in the funnel.\nUtilizing the Checkout Journey Report\nThe Checkout Journey Report serves as a valuable tool in assessing and optimizing the checkout process within your digital commerce ecosystem. It plays a pivotal role in recognizing potential bottlenecks that may hinder a seamless checkout experience for your customers. Identifying these issues is instrumental in enhancing user satisfaction and ultimately boosting conversions.\nAccessing the Report\nTo access the Checkout Journey Report and leverage its insights, follow these steps:\n- Sign in to Google Analytics: Begin by logging into your Google Analytics account to gain access to the suite of analytical tools and reports.\n- Navigate to Reports: From the left-hand menu, locate and click on the “Reports” section.\n- Select the Checkout Journey Report: Within the “Reports” section, you’ll find the Checkout Journey Report categorized under either the “Monetization” topic within the “Life Cycle” collection or the “Drive Online Sales” topic within the “Business Objectives” collection.\nIt is imperative to understand the data sources that fuel the Checkout Journey Report. To ensure the report provides meaningful insights, the following ecommerce events must be correctly implemented within your online store:\n- begin_checkout: This event corresponds to the initiation of the checkout process and is responsible for populating the “Begin Checkout” step within the report.\n- add_shipping_info: As users progress through the checkout, the entry of shipping information triggers this event, thereby populating the “Add Shipping” step in the report.\n- add_payment_info: When customers input payment details during the checkout process, the “Add Payment” step is populated within the report through this event.\n- purchase: The final step in the checkout journey, “Purchase,” is populated with data from this event. It signifies the successful completion of the transaction.\nUnderstanding the Checkout Journey Report\nThe Checkout Journey Report is a handy tool that comes equipped with a funnel chart and a data table, making it easier for you to analyze and break down your data in a structured manner.\n1. Identifying Abandoned Steps\nOne of the key insights you can gain from this report is understanding how many users abandoned each step in the checkout process. We measure this using something called the “Abandonment Rate,” which you’ll find right below each bar that represents a step in the funnel.\nFor example: If you had 1000 users who successfully completed the first step but only 700 users moved on to the next step, then the abandonment rate for the first step would be 300, which is also equivalent to 30% (since it’s a percentage).\n2. Tracking User Retention\nOn the flip side, we also want to know how many users were retained after each step, and we use the “Retention Rate” to measure this. You can spot the retention rate in the header of the next step in the process.\nFor instance: In our previous example, where 1000 users completed the first step and 700 moved on to the next, the header in the next step would display a retention rate of 70%.\n3. Getting Detailed Information\nThe report also allows you to dive into more detailed information. When you hover your cursor over a specific step in the report, you’ll see the exact number of users who successfully completed that particular step.\nFor example: In our scenario, when you hover over the first step, you’ll see that 1000 users completed it, and when you hover over the next step, you’ll see that 300 users made it to that point.\nDimensions in the report\nYou can choose from the following dimensions, which update the dimension values in the table.\n|Dimension||What it is||How it’s populated|\n|Browser||The browser from which user activity originated. Typical browsers include ‘Chrome’, ‘Edge’, ‘Firefox’, ‘Internet Explorer’, ‘Opera’, and ‘Safari’.||This dimension is populated automatically.|\n|City||The city from which user activity originates. For example, if someone visits your website from New York City, the text ‘New York’ populates the dimension.||This dimension is populated automatically.|\n|Country||The country from which user activity originated. For example, if someone visits your website from the United States, the text ‘United States’ populates the dimension.||This dimension is populated automatically.|\n|Device category||The type of device from which user activity originated. Device categories include ‘desktop’, ‘mobile’, and ‘tablet’.\nThis is the default dimension in the report.\n|This dimension is populated automatically.|\n|Language||The name of the language of a user’s browser or device (e.g., ‘French’, ‘English’).||This dimension is populated automatically.|\n|Region||The geographic region from which user activity originated. For example, if someone visits your website from New York City, the text ‘New York’ populates the dimension. If someone visits your website from England, the text ‘England’ populates the dimension.||This dimension is populated automatically.|\nIn conclusion, GA4’s Checkout Journey Report is a powerful tool for e-commerce businesses to gain deep insights into user behavior during the checkout process. By leveraging the data and strategies outlined in this blog, you can optimize your online store, reduce cart abandonment, and ultimately drive higher conversions and profits.\nNew to GA 4?\nVisit our GA4 guide today and embark on a journey to data enlightenment.

{"text": "Modular Homes Sales\nModular homes have been popular since the first types of easily transported homes have been in use since the early 1920’s. People appreciated the fact that they could move around with all the conveniences of home attached to their wagons in the form of wagon trailers. As time advanced, so did the technologies of these mobile homes, but there are certain events throughout history that have created spikes in modular homes sales from these early periods to the present.\nWhen they were first introduced on the market in the 1920’s, the forerunner to the modern day modular home was an instant success. The novelty and convenience of these additions were not lost on the general public. They offered people a great benefit and were fairly innovative for the time, since they offered such a large storage space and since people wanted to be able to travel more freely, these devices really helped them with their plans. Sales stayed pretty level until after the second world war, when there was once again an explosion in sales of the next stage of evolution in terms of the modular home: the mobile home.\nWhen soldiers returned home from the war, they were disappointed to find housing lacking, and the housing that was available was usually far too expensive for them to be able to afford. This was quite discouraging until the market was supplied with a cheap, effective alternative. The mobile home was introduced and was very popular among the young men who had returned home from the war. They were much less expensive than stable homes but they were also sized well enough to accommodate an entire family within the confines of the mobile home. Since work was always in question it was very convenient to be able to pick up and move your whole family to be relocated wherever the work was.\nAs the 1980’s approached, the mobile home had gone through a series of changes within the last decade. From the lost of the wheels that made them mobile, to the introduction of the custom designed floor plans, the modular homes sales began to increase again with the promise of stability, reliability and comfort. But towards the end of this decade things began to level out in terms of sales, and many companies felt the hurt of this decline.\nIn the late fall months of 2005, modular homes sales increased sharply. This was due to the reaction that was in place due to the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina. The modular homes sales increased so rapidly because FEMA, insurance companies and other corporate identities were trying to make up for the damages incurred by many of the southern residents who lost their homes during the hurricane. As a result, many of the surviving victims were given trailers or modular homes, which was what produced the sharp increase in the modular homes sales that many companies noticed that quarter.Natural and man made disasters have been the causes to a great extent when it come to the increase of different types of manufactured homes sales figures. It is unsure for certain what may cause the next spike or decline, but with the regulations in effect in regards to the modular homes, people can rest assured that the companies will be able to handle the demands efficiently and effectively.", "label": "No"}

{"text": "US 7957621 B2\nA multifunctional optical film for enhancing light extraction includes a flexible substrate, a structured layer having nanoparticles of different sizes, and a backfill layer. The structured layer effectively uses microreplicated diffractive or scattering nanostructures located near enough to the light generation region to enable extraction of an evanescent wave from an organic light emitting diode (OLED) device. The backfill layer has a material having an index of refraction different from the index of refraction of the structured layer. The backfill layer also provides a planarizing layer over the structured layer in order to conform the light extraction film to a layer of an OLED display device. The film may have additional layers added to or incorporated within it to an emissive surface in order to effect additional functionalities beyond improvement of light extraction efficiency.\n1. A multifunctional optical film for enhancing light extraction from a self-emissive light source having a surface that outputs light, comprising:\na flexible substrate substantially transmissive to light emitted by the self-emissive light source;\na structured layer of extraction elements having a first index of refraction,\nwherein the extraction elements comprise nanoparticles disposed in a surface layer manner on the substrate, and the extraction elements form a non-planar surface of the structured layer, and\nwherein the nanoparticles comprise first nanoparticles having diameters within a first range and second nanoparticles added to the first nanoparticles and having diameters in a second range less than and non-overlapping with the first range; and\na backfill layer comprising a material having a second index of refraction different from the first index of refraction, wherein the backfill layer forms a planarizing layer over the nanoparticles on the non-planar surface of the structured layer, forming a planar surface on a side of the backfill layer opposite the nanoparticles,\nwherein a substantial portion of the extraction elements are in optical communication with the light output surface of the self-emissive light source when the planar surface of the backfill layer is located against the light output surface of the self-emissive light source,\nwherein the structured layer and backfill layer are in sufficient proximity to the light output surface of the self-emissive light source when the planar surface of the backfill layer is located against the light output surface of the self-emissive light source in order to at least partially enhance the extraction of light from the light output surface, and\nwherein the first range of diameters is 60 nm to 10 microns, and the second range of diameters is 3 nm to 40 nm.\n2. The multifunctional optical film of\n3. The multifunctional optical film of\n4. The multifunctional optical film of\nOrganic Light Emitting Diodes (OLEDS) are the basis for a new display and lighting technology, providing a good match for high resolution or high pixel count high definition display applications, and for efficient, broad area, flexible lighting applications. OLED devices include a thin film of electroluminescent organic material sandwiched between a cathode and an anode, with one or both of these electrodes being a transparent conductor. When a voltage is applied across the device, electrons and holes are injected from their respective electrodes and recombine in the electroluminescent organic material through the intermediate formation of emissive excitons.\nIn OLED devices, over 70% of the generated light is typically lost due to processes within the device structure. The trapping of light at the interfaces between the higher index organic and Indium Tin Oxide (ITO) layers and the lower index substrate layers is the major cause of this poor extraction efficiency. Only a relatively small amount of the emitted light emerges through the transparent electrode as “useful” light. The majority of the light undergoes internal reflections, which result in its being emitted from the edge of the device or trapped within the device and eventually being lost to absorption within the device after making repeated passes.\nEfforts have been made to improve the internal quantum efficiency (number of photons generated per electron injected) of OLEDs by means such as modifying the charge injection or transport layers, using fluorescent dyes or phosphorescent materials, or by using multilayer structures (see, for example, K. Meerholz, Adv. Funct. Materials v. 11, no. 4, p 251 (2001)). Light extraction efficiency (number of photons emerging from the structure vs. the number generated internally) can be influenced by factors external to the emission layers themselves.\nA bottom emitting OLED may be thought of as consisting of a core containing high index of refraction layers (organic layers for light generation, carrier transport, injection or blocking, and, typically, a transparent conductive oxide layer) and a low index of refraction substrate material (typically glass, but could be a polymer film). Therefore light that is generated within the core may encounter two high index to low index interfaces where it might undergo internal reflection. Light unable to escape the core as a result of encounter at the first interface is confined to a waveguide mode, while light passing through that interface but unable to escape from the substrate as a result of reflection at the substrate-to-air interface is confined to a substrate mode. Similar optical losses occur due to interfaces in top emitting OLEDs.\nVarious solutions have been proposed to affect light reaching the substrate-to-air interface by disturbing that interface (e.g., microlenses or roughened surfaces). Others have introduced scattering elements into the substrate or into an adhesive (see Published PCT Application No. WO2002037580A1 (Chou)), thereby interrupting the substrate modes to redirect that light out of the device. There have even been some preliminary attempts to disturb the core-to-substrate interface by introducing scattering or diffractive elements at this interface. Detailed analysis has shown that scattering or diffracting structures will be most effective in extraction light when located at this interface (M. Fujita, et al.; Jpn. J. Appl. Phys. 44 (6A), pp. 3669-77 (2005)). Scattering efficiency is maximized when the index contrast between the scattering or diffractive elements and the backfill material is large and when the length scale of the index contrast variations is comparable to the wavelength of the light (see, for example, F. J. P. Schuurmans, et al.; Science 284 (5411), pp. 141-143 (1999)).\nFabrication of defect-free OLED devices in contact with this light extracting layer will require a smooth planar surface, so planarity of the top surface of a light extraction film is important. There has been, however, some work on corrugating the electrode structure in order to couple light out of the OLED (M. Fujita, et al.; Jpn. J. Appl. Phys. 44 (6A), pp. 3669-77 (2005)); the resultant effects on the electric fields in the device are expected to have deleterious effects. So great care must be taken to not adversely affect the electrical operation of the device while disturbing this interface. Practical solutions to balancing these conflicting issues have not yet been proposed.\nSimilar problems in external efficiency exist with inorganic light-emitting diodes (LEDs), where the very high refractive indices of the active materials can severely limit the extraction of internally generated light. In these cases, there have been some attempts to utilize photonic crystal (PC) materials to improve the extraction efficiency (S. Fan, Phys. Rev. Letters v. 78, no. 17, p. 3294 (1997); H. Ichikawa, Appl. Phys. Letters V. 84, p. 457 (2004)). Similar reports on the use of PCs in connection with OLED efficiency improvement have begun to appear (M. Fujita, Appl. Phys. Letters v. 85, p. 5769 (2004); Y. Lee, Appl. Phys. Letters v. 82, p. 3779 (2003)), but previously reported results have involved time-consuming and costly procedures which do not lend themselves incorporation into existing OLED fabrication processes.\nAccordingly, a need exists for a product which can enhance light extraction from OLED devices in a form which is compatible with fabrication processes for these devices.\nA multifunctional optical film for enhancing light extraction, consistent with the present invention, includes a flexible substrate, a structured layer, and a backfill layer. The structured layer of extraction elements has a first index of refraction, and a substantial portion of the extraction elements are in optical communication with a light emitting region of a self-emissive light source when the optical film is located against the self-emissive light source. The extraction elements include nanoparticles of different sizes. The backfill layer has a material having a second index of refraction different from the first index of refraction, and the backfill layer forms a planarizing layer over the extraction elements.\nA method of making a multifunctional optical film for enhancing light extraction, consistent with the present invention, includes coating a layer of a material having a first index of refraction onto a flexible substrate. Nanostructured features of different sizes are imparted into the organic material to create a nanostructured surface. The organic material having the nanostructured features is cured. A backfill layer is then applied to the nanostructured surface to form a planarizing layer on the nanostructured surface. The backfill layer comprises a material having a second index of refraction different from the first index of refraction. Alternatively, a thin layer of nanoparticles may be distributed on the surface of the film and then overcoated with an essentially planarizing material of a different index.\nThe accompanying drawings are incorporated in and constitute a part of this specification and, together with the description, explain the advantages and principles of the invention. In the drawings,\nEmbodiments include methods to form light-extracting nanostructures, or other nanostructures, in a polymer replication process, a direct deposition of nanoparticles, or other processes to make a light extraction film for OLED devices. The multifunctional film product can, in addition to enhancing light extraction, serve additional functions such as a substrate, encapsulant, barrier layer, filter, polarizer, or color converter and may be employed either during or after manufacture of an OLED device. The film construction is based upon photonic crystal structures, or other nanostructures, for improved efficiency of light extraction from the devices by modifying the interface between high and low index layers within the device.\nElements of the invention include the provision of structures of dimensions comparable to or less than the wavelength of the light to be controlled, the provision of a material with contrasting index of refraction to fill in the areas surrounding the structures and also to planarize the structure in order to present an essentially smooth surface to come in contact with the OLED structure, and the location of this index-contrasting nanostructured layer within a small enough distance from the light-emitting region to be effective in extracting the light that would otherwise be trapped in that region.\nLight incident from a high index material onto an interface with a lower index medium will undergo total internal reflection (TIR) for all incidence angles greater than the critical angle θC, defined by θC=sin−1(n2/n1), where n1 and n2 are the refractive indices of the high- and low index regions, respectively. The electromagnetic field associated with this light reflected by TIR extends into the lower-index region in an evanescent standing wave, but the strength of this field diminishes exponentially with distance from the interface. Absorbing or scattering entities located within this evanescent zone, typically about one wavelength thick, can disrupt the TIR and cause the light to pass through the interface. Therefore, it is preferable that the nanostructured index contrast layer be located within the evanescent zone if it is to be most effective in causing extraction of the light from the emission region by scattering or diffraction. Alternatively, the nanostructured index contrast layer need only be in optical communication with a light emitting region of the self-emissive light source when the optical film is located against the self-emissive light source. The term “optical communication” means that a significant or substantial portion of the generated optical field from the light source is capable of reaching the scattering particles or nanostructure.\nReplication master tools can be fabricated with regular or random structures of the required average periodicity for light extraction, 200 nanometers (nm)-2000 nm, over increasingly larger areas. Combining this tooling capability with microreplication processes such as continuous cast and cure (3C) enable the formation of the photonic crystal structures, or other nanostructures, on the surface of a film substrate. Examples of a 3C process are described in the following patents, all of which are incorporated herein by reference as if fully set forth: U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,374,077; 4,576,850; 5,175,030; 5,271,968; 5,558,740; and 5,995,690.\nThe terms “nanostructure” or “nanostructures” refers to structures having at least one dimension (e.g., height, length, width, or diameter) of less than 2 microns and more preferably less than one micron. Nanostructure includes, but is not necessarily limited to, particles and engineered features. The particles and engineered features can have, for example, a regular or irregular shape. Such particles are also referred to as nanoparticles.\nThe term “nanostructured” refers to a material or layer having nanostructures.\nThe term “photonic crystal structures” refers to periodic or quasi-periodic optical nanostructures interspersed with a material of sufficiently different index of refraction that will enable the structure to produce gaps in the spectrum of allowed electromagnetic modes in the material.\nThe term “index” refers to index of refraction.\nThe term “backfill” refers to the material incorporated into a structure, and of a different index from the structure, to fill in voids in the structure and planarize the structure.\nThe term “extraction elements” refers to any type and arrangement of nanostructures enhancing light extraction from self-emissive light sources. The extraction elements are preferably not contained within a volume distribution.\nBottom Emitting OLED Display Device\nThe substrate 114 is composed of a material, substantially transparent (transmissive) to the desired emitted wavelengths, that provides sufficient mechanical support and thermal stability for the device. Substrate 114 preferably comprises a flexible material. Examples of substrate materials include the following: glass; flexible glass; polyethylene terephthalate (“PET”); polyethylene naphthalate (“PEN”); or other translucent or transparent materials. Substrate 114 can optionally also function as a barrier layer. Also, substrate 114 can optionally contain dyes or particles, and it can be tentered or include prismatic structures.\nThe optional barrier layer 112 effectively blocks or helps prevent permeation of oxygen and water to the layers of the device, particularly the organic layers. Examples of barrier layers are described in U.S. Patent Application Publication Nos. 2006/0063015 (describing boron oxide layers with inorganic barrier layers) and 2007/0020451 (describing diamond-like glass (DLG) and diamond-like carbon (DLC)), both of which are incorporated herein by reference as if fully set forth.\nThe electrodes 102 and 106 can be implemented with, for example, transparent conductive oxide (TCO) such as indium tin oxide (ITO) or metals with the appropriate work function to make injection of charge carriers such as calcium, aluminum, gold, or silver.\nThe organic layers 104 can be implemented with any organic electroluminescent material such as a light-emitting polymer, an example of which is described in U.S. Pat. No. 6,605,483, which is incorporated herein by reference as if fully set forth. Other examples of suitable light emitting materials include evaporated small molecule materials, light-emitting dendrimers, molecularly doped polymers, and light-emitting electrochemical cells.\nThe light extraction film 116 in this embodiment is composed of substrate 114, optional barrier layer 112, low index structure 110, and high index structure 108. The high index structure uses a backfill medium to effectively provide a planarizing layer over the low index structure in order to make the light extraction film sufficiently planar to allow OLED fabrication. The backfill layer can alternatively have other optical properties. Also, the backfill layer material can function as a barrier to moisture and oxygen or provide electrical conduction, possibly in addition to having barrier properties, depending upon the type of material used. The backfill layer can alternatively be implemented with an optically clear adhesive, in which case the extraction film can be applied to top emitting OLED device, for example. A stabilization layer can optionally be coated on the device before applying the backfill layer.\nThe low index structure 110 has a material with an index substantially matched to the underlying layer, typically the substrate. The low index structure 110 is composed of a nanostructured layer, which can have a periodic, quasi-periodic, or random distribution or pattern of optical nanostructures, including photonic crystal structures. It can include discrete nanoparticles. The nanoparticles can be composed of organic materials or other materials, and they can have any particle shape. The nanoparticles can alternatively be implemented with porous particles. The distribution of nanostructures can also have varying pitches and feature size. At least a portion of the extraction elements or nanostructures are preferably in contact with the flexible substrate, and the extraction elements may have voids beneath them. The layer of nanoparticles can be implemented with nanoparticles in a monolayer, with a layer having agglomerations of nanoparticles, or in a multi-layer.\nIn some embodiments, the addition of small SiO2 nanoparticles to suspensions of larger SiO2 nanoparticles for low index structure 110 can significantly improve the uniformity of the larger nanoparticles in coatings made from the suspension. For example, low index structure 110 can include the additional of 5 nm diameter SiO2 nanoparticles in coatings made from suspensions of 440 nm diameter SiO2 nanoparticles. These small and large nanoparticles can be surface treated or non-treated. The large nanoparticles can comprises two or more different sizes of large nanoparticles. The large nanoparticles preferably have diameters in the range of 60 nm to 10 microns, or 100 nm to 1 micron, or more preferably 100 nm to 500 nm. The small nanoparticles preferably have diameters in the range of 3 nm to 50 nm. The nanoparticles can comprise one or more of the following: metal oxide particles; organic polymer particles; metal particles; or composite particles.\nUsing a distance of the nanostructures on the order of the evanescent wave from the organic layers can result in coupling of the evanescent wave to the nanostructures for extraction of additional light from the device. This coupling preferably occurs when the light extraction film is adjacent to the light emitting region of the self-emissive light source. When the backfill layer has a lower index than the structured layer, then the backfill layer preferably has a thickness substantially equal to the extraction elements. When the backfill layer has a higher index than the structured layer, then the backfill layer can be thicker than the extraction elements provided it can still interact with the evanescent wave. In either case, the structured layer and backfill layer are preferably in sufficient proximity to the light output surface in order to at least partially effect the extraction of light from that surface.\nThe nanostructured features in layer 110 can be fabricated using any printing techniques for replication of submicron features such as the following: imprinting; embossing; nanoimprinting; thermal- or photo-nanoimprint lithography; injection molding; or nanotransfer printing. Another technique for fabricating the extraction elements is described in Example 18 in U.S. Pat. No. 6,217,984, which is incorporated herein by reference as if fully set forth.\nThe high index structure 108 is a high index material providing index contrast to the adjacent low index nanostructured layer and provides an effective planarization layer to it. The index of refraction mismatch between nanostructured layer 110 and backfill medium 108 at the emission wavelength(s) is referred to as Δn, and a greater value of Δn generally provides better light extraction. The value of Δn is preferably greater than or equal to 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, or 1.0. Any index mismatch between the extraction elements and backfill medium will provide for light extraction; however, a greater mismatch tends to provide greater light extraction and is thus preferred. Examples of suitable materials for backfill medium 108 include the following: high index inorganic materials; high index organic materials; a nanoparticle filled polymer material; silicon nitride; polymers filled with high index inorganic materials; and high index conjugated polymers. Examples of high index polymers and monomers are described in C. Yang, et al., Chem. Mater. 7, 1276 (1995), and R. Burzynski, et al., Polymer 31, 627 (1990) and U.S. Pat. No. 6,005,137, all of which are incorporated herein by reference as if fully set forth. Examples of polymers filled with high index inorganic materials are described in U.S. Pat. No. 6,329,058, which is incorporated herein by reference as if fully set forth. The backfill layer can be applied to form the planarizing layer using, for example, one of the following methods: liquid coating; vapor coating; powder coating; or lamination.\nFunctionality can be added to the construction by depositing on it a transparent conductor such as ITO (n≈1.9-2.1) with high index, high transparency and low sheet resistivity, to serve as the anode for the OLED device. The ITO can even be used as the backfill for the structure, if the layer can fill the structures and form into a smooth layer without adverse effects on the optical or electrical properties. Alternatively, after backfilling and smoothing, alternating metallic and organic layers may be deposited to form a transparent conductive overlayer (on the backfill layer) in the manner as described in U.S. Patent Application Publication No. 2004/0033369, which is incorporated herein by reference as if fully set forth.\nAdditional flexibility in the functionality of the extractor pattern of the photonic crystal structures or nanostructures can be obtained through the use of photonic quasicrystal structures. These quasicrystal structures are designed using tiling rules; they have neither true periodicity nor translation symmetry but have a quasi-periodicity with long-range order and orientation symmetry, examples of which are described in the following reference, which is incorporated herein by reference as if fully set forth: B. Zhang et al., “Effects of the Artificial Ga-Nitride/Air Periodic Nanostructures on Current Injected GaN-Based Light Emitters,” Phys. Stat. Sol. (c) 2(7), 2858-61 (2005). The photonic quasicrystal structures offer the possibility of a pseudogap for all propagation directions, and they exhibit unique light scattering behaviors. In particular, these patterns of quasiphotonic crystal structures can eliminate artifacts resulting from the regularity of conventional photonic crystal structures, and they can be used to tailor unique light emission profiles and possibly can eliminate undesirable chromatic effects when working with broadband OLED emitters. Photonic crystal structures are described in the following patents, all of which are incorporated herein by reference as if fully set forth: U.S. Pat. Nos. 6,640,034; 6,901,194; 6,778,746; 6,888,994; 6,775,448; and 6,959,127.\nEmbodiments can involve the incorporation of the diffractive or scattering nanostructures into a film product which could be continuously produced, for example, on a web line having a polymer film or ultrabarrier coated film substrate fed to a 3C replication process followed by deposition of a high index backfill medium. Alternate ways to incorporate the diffractive or scattering nanoparticles into the film include solution coating a dispersion of particles. This film can be designed to be used directly as the substrate on which a bottom emitting OLED is fabricated, enabling the production of a film capable of many uses in addition to enhancing light extraction.\nAdditional functionality could be incorporated into the light extraction film product by forming the extraction structures on an optional ultrabarrier film, which provides excellent moisture and oxygen barrier properties. Ultrabarrier films include multilayer films made, for example, by vacuum deposition of two inorganic dielectric materials sequentially in a multitude of layers on a glass or other suitable substrate, or alternating layers of inorganic materials and organic polymers, as described in U.S. Pat. Nos. 5,440,446; 5,877,895; and 6,010,751, all of which are incorporated herein by reference as if fully set forth.\nMaterials may also be incorporated within the film to enhance light extraction through scattering or to filter, color shift, or polarize the light. Finally, surface coatings or structures, for example functional layers 115, can be applied to the air surface of the light extraction film in order to further increase the functionality and possibly value of a light extraction film. Such surface coatings can have, for example, optical, mechanical, chemical, or electrical functions. Examples of such coatings or structures include those having the following functions or properties: antifog; antistatic; antiglare; antireflection; antiabrasion (scratch resistance); antismudge; hydrophobic; hydrophilic; adhesion promotion; refractive elements; color filtering; ultraviolet (UV) filtering; spectral filtering; color shifting; color modification; polarization modification (linear or circular); light redirection; diffusion; or optical rotation. Other possible layers to be applied to the air surface include a barrier layer or a transparent electrically conductive material.\nTop Emitting OLED Display Device\nThe light extraction film 142 in this embodiment is composed of substrate 122, optional barrier layer 124, low index structure 126, and high index structure 128. Low index structure 126 and high index structure 128 can be implemented with the exemplary materials and constructions described above. Layers 128 and 130 can optionally be implemented with a single layer.

Layers 192 and 194 can alternatively be implemented with a single layer.\nHigh Index/Low Index Regions and Surface Configurations\nExamples of techniques for making extraction elements are described in U.S. patent application Ser. No. 11/556,719, filed Nov. 6, 2006, which is incorporated herein by reference as if fully set forth.\nAdditional techniques could include using lithography or interference lithography to expose nanoscale regions in a photosensitive polymer deposited on a flexible polymer web. After the exposure and development steps, the remaining photosensitive polymer would then define a nanostructured surface. Alternatively, this nanostructured photosensitive polymer surface can serve as an etch mask for exposure of the surface in an etching process. This etching technique would transfer the nanoscale pattern into the surface of the underlying polymer web or into a layer of a harder material, such as a silicon oxide, which had been deposited on the polymer web prior to the lithographic steps. The nanoscale surface defined in any of these manners could then be backfilled with an index contrasting medium to form the light scattering or diffracting layer.\nDistributions of Nanoparticles for Light Extraction\nThis embodiment provides enhanced light extraction from an OLED using an index-contrasting film with randomly distributed high index nanostructures created by coating nanoparticles such as, for example, ITO, silicon nitride (Si3N4, referred to here as SiN), CaO, Sb2O3, ATO, TiO2, ZrO2, Ta2O5, HfO2, Nb2O3, MgO, ZnO, In2O3, Sn2O3, AlN, GaN, TiN, or any other high index materials on a substrate used in OLED fabrication or encapsulation, and then applying a low index coating, such as SiO2, Al2O3, DLG, DLC, or polymeric materials over the nanoparticles to provide the index contrast needed for scattering or diffraction efficiency and to planarize the surface. The randomly distributed nanostructures can be in contact with the substrate, proximate the substrate, grouped together in places, or in any random configuration proximate the substrate. A converse construction, potentially providing similar effectiveness, can comprise a random distribution of low index nanoparticles or nanostructures such as SiO2, porous SiO2, Borosilicate (BK), Al2O3, MgF2, CaF, LiF, DLG, DLC, metal particles such as silver or gold particles, poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA), polycarbonate, PET, low index polymers, or any other low index materials with a contrasting high index filler material such as vapor deposited Si3N4 or a solvent-coated particle-filled polymer or a high index polymer. The substrate can optionally have one or more of the following coatings: an antistatic coating; or an adhesion promotion coating.\nCoating processes such as dip coating, knife coating, dye coating, and roll-to-roll coating may be used for distributing the nanoparticles on the surface, and a similar process may be used to coat the backfill/planarization layer. The use of such techniques should render the process simple, easily scaled for manufacturing, and suitable for incorporation in film products manufactured via web line or roll-to-roll processes.\nThe roll-to-roll continuous process fabrication of light extraction films can include assembling monolayer or sub-monolayer coatings of low index nanoparticles on a plastic substrate, the applying an overcoat of high index material. An example of such a roll-to-roll process includes coating bare functionalized silica nanoparticles on plastic (PET) substrates and then overcoating those nanoparticles with a high index backfill material. The high index backfill materials can be obtained by loading epoxy or acrylate polymers with high index nanoparticles such as ZrO2 or TiO2. Additional high index materials are described in U.S. patent application Ser. No. 12/262,393, filed Oct. 31, 2008, which is incorporated herein by reference as if fully set forth.\nOne particular manufacturing method involves applying nanoparticles having a first index of refraction onto a flexible substrate and overcoating a backfill layer on the nanoparticles to form a planarizing layer over them. The backfill layer comprises a material having a second index of refraction different from the first index of refraction. Preferably, a substantial portion of the nanoparticles are within an evanescent zone adjacent to a light emitting region of a self-emissive light source when the optical film is located against the self-emissive light source. For example, a substantial portion of the nanoparticles can be in contact with the substrate to be within the evanescent zone, although in some embodiments the substantial portion of the nanoparticles in the evanescent zone need not be in contact with the substrate.\nApplying the nanoparticles can involve coating the nanoparticles dispersed in a solvent onto the flexible substrate and allowing the solvent to evaporate before overcoating the backfill layer. Applying the nanoparticles can also involve applying them in dry form to the flexible substrate and then overcoating them with the backfill layer. An alternative to the method involves using substrate with a release agent, in which the particles are applied to a substrate with a release agent, the substrate with the particles is applied to a device substrate with the particles in contact with it, and then the substrate is released to transfer the particles to the device substrate. On particular method involves a single process to coat the substrate with nanoparticles, dry it, coat the backfill layer, dry it again, and then cure the resulting film. Yet another particular method involves a first process to coat the substrate with nanoparticles, dry it, and wind up the coating film, and then a second process to unwind the film, coat the backfill layer, dry it again, and then cure the resulting film.\nOne solution for forming a master tool having nanostructures involves the use of interference lithography. Regular periodic features as small as 100 nm-150 nm can be quickly written using this method. An advantage involves being able to write these patterns over larger areas, which can make the process more amenable to manufacturing.\nProduction of a master tool for replication of the pattern can involve the following. A substrate is coated with an overlayer of photoresist and then illuminated with one or more UV interference patterns to expose the resist in a regular pattern with the desired feature sizes. Development of the resist then leaves an array of holes or posts. This pattern can subsequently be transferred into the underlying substrate through an etching process. If the substrate material is not suitable to be used as a replication tool, a metal tool can be made using standard electroforming processes. This metal replica would then become the master tool.\nAnother method involves forming a master tool having randomly-distributed nanostructures. A solution is prepared comprising nanoparticles of the appropriate size and with the appropriate surface modifications to prevent agglomeration. Methods for preparing such solutions are generally specific to the particular nanoparticles to be dispersed; general methods have been described elsewhere, including U.S. Pat. No. 6,936,100 and Molecular Crystals and Liquid Crystals, 444 (2006) 247-255, both of which are incorporated herein by reference as if fully set forth. The solution is then coated onto a flexible substrate using one of a variety of solvent coating techniques, including knife coating, dip coating, spray coating, dye coating, or roll-to-roll coating. Pretreatment of the substrate using methods such as plasma etching may be required in order to assure uniformity of the solution coating. After solvent evaporation, the nanoparticles should be distributed in a way that is microscopically random but macroscopically uniform. As was the case with the uniform tool fabrication process described above, this pattern could then be transferred to an underlying substrate material through an etching or embossing process, or a metal tool can be made using standard electroforming processes.\nIn any of these cases, if a flat master tool has been produced, it or its replicas may then be tiled together to form a larger tool, as described in U.S. Pat. No. 6,322,652, incorporated herein by reference as if fully set forth, or may be formed into a cylindrical tool for compatibility with a roll-to-roll replication process.\nOnce a master tool has been produced, replication of the structure into a polymer can be done using one of a variety of replication processes, including the 3C process. The substrate for this replication could be any polymer sheeting compatible with the chosen replication process; it may be already coated with the ultrabarrier film as described above. Backfilling would then be performed downstream in, for example, a chemical vapor deposition (CVD) or sputtering process which can deposit a high index material, such as SiN or ITO, which is capable of filling the structures and then leveling out into a smooth layer. If SiN is used, this might then be followed by an ITO deposition process if a conductive upper layer is required. Alternatively, the downstream backfilling may be performed in a solvent coating process using suitable materials.\nDispersions of spherical silica nanoparticles with nominal diameter of 190 nm were obtained from the Nissan Chemical, 10777 Westheimer, Suite 830, Houston, Tex. 77042, U.S.A. The nanoparticles were treated with polyethylene oxide (PEO and dialyzed, 142971-86-4, 190 nm silica with PEO covered and dialyzed, 33.6% solids).\nThe process details of treated 190 nm SiO2 nanoparticles with PEO are as follows. 363 grams of Nissian MP-4540 (100 grams of silica) was added to a reaction vessel along with 7.5 grams of A1230 polyethylene oxide silane from Momentive Performance Chemicals. The mixture was reacted for 16 hours at 80° C. The reaction mixture was then dialyzed to remove any unreacted silane and other impurities. The solution was place in a 2 Spectra/Por Dialysis membrane having a MWCO (Molecular Weight Cut-Off) of 12-14,000. The material was dialyzed for 24 hours against constantly flowing tap water.\nThe resulting nanoparticle suspension was diluted in 1 methoxy 2 propanol to produce suspensions having 2 percent by weight solids content. The 190 nm SiO2 nanoparticle solution was coated on a PET substrate by a dip coating (coating speed: 65 mm/min). It was shown from SEM images that there was a de-wetting issue resulting in regions of the substrate having no particle coating.\nA 2 wt % suspension of 190 nm SiO2 nanoparticles was prepared as described in Example 1, but with the addition of 1.1 wt % of 5 nm SiO2 (treated by PEO: 147426-45-01, 5 nm silica particles treated with Silquest A1230). The 190 nm SiO2 nanoparticles were coated on a PET substrate by a dip coating (coating speed of 65 mm/min as in Example 1). Through comparison of SEM images from Example 1 and this sample, the uniformity of the coating was shown to have been improved by adding the small nanoparticles, although the de-wetting of the nanoparticles coating had not completely disappeared.\nA 2 wt % of 190 nm SiO2 nanoparticles was prepared as described as in Example 1, but with the addition of 1.1 wt % of 5 nm SiO2 (unmodified small 5 nm SiO2 nanoparticles from Nalco Company, Nalco 2326). It was clearly shown from SEM images that unmodified small SiO2 nanoparticles can significantly improve the large nanoparticle coating uniformity.\nA 2 wt % of 190 nm SiO2 nanoparticles was prepared as described as in Example 1, but with the addition of 1.1 wt % of 5 nm SiO2 nanoparticles modified with isooctyltrimethoxysilane and methytrimethoxysilane. (The 5 nm nanoparticle powder was first dissolved in isopropanol to produce suspensions having 10 percent by weight solids content). As was shown through SEM images, the coating uniformity was improved, although the de-wet of the nanoparticles coating had not completely disappeared.\nDispersions of spherical silica nanoparticles with nominal diameter of 440 nm were obtained from the Nissan Chemical (Houston Office (Chemical Business), 10777 Westheimer, Suite 830, Houston, Tex. 77042, U.S.A. The nanoparticle solution was diluted in 1 methoxy 2 propanol to produce a suspension having 5 percent by weight solids content. The 440 nm SiO2 nanoparticles were coated on a corona-treated PET film (6-8 mil thickness) by roll-to-roll-process using a 5 mil coating gap (web speed of 10 fpm, ind. pump speed of 1.2 cc/min). The resulting coating was first dried in air at room temperature, then subsequently further dried at 180° F.\n2.5 wt % of 440 nm SiO2 nanoparticles were prepared as in Example 5a, but then 1 wt % of modified 5 nm SiO2 nanoparticles, prepared as in the Example 2, was added. The 440 nm SiO2 nanoparticles were coated on the corona-treated PET film using the same conditions as in Example 5a.\nMaterials used in the Examples included silica nanoparticles of 93 nm nominal diameter obtained from the Nalco company, and dodecylbenzenesulfonic sodium salt (DS-10) surfactant obtained from Aldrich. Using these materials with different coating conditions, close-packed monolayers of nanoparticles, or sparse discontinuous layers, could be achieved.\nA silica nanoparticle dispersion produced by diluting a 2 wt % nanoparticles dispersion in H2O to 1 wt % nanoparticles with DS-10 was coated on a corona-treated PET film (6-8 mil thickness) by the roll-to-roll process using a 5 mil gap (web speed of 10 fpm, dispersion delivery rate of 3 cc/min). The coating was dried in air at room temperature, and then subsequently it was further dried at 180° F. It was shown through a SEM photo of the resulting nanoparticle that a uniform and close-packed monolayer of silica nanoparticles was produced.\nSilica nanoparticle dispersion as above was coated on corona-treated PET film (6-8 mil thickness) by the roll-to-roll process with a 5 mil gap and lower dispersion delivery rate (web speed of 10 fpm, dispersion delivery rate of 1.5 cc/min). The resulting coating was dried in air at room temperature, and subsequently further dried at 180° F. on the web.\nIn order to quantitatively evaluate the OLED efficiency enhancement due to the nanoparticle, 300 nm Si3N4 layer was applied over the silica nanoparticle coating using plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD, Model PlasmaLab System 100 available form Oxford Instruments, Yatton, UK). Conditions used in the Si3N4 deposition are shown in Table 4.\nNext, 110 nm of ITO was deposited on the silicon nitride through a 5 mm×5 mm pixilated shadow mask to serve as the OLED anode. Subsequently, a simple green organic emitting layer and cathode were deposited to complete the OLED. The OLEDs were fabricated by standard thermal deposition in a bell-jar vacuum system. The OLED layers were deposited through a 40 mm×40 mm shadow mask covering the 5 mm×5 mm ITO pixels in the following order: TNATA:FeCl3 (3000A, 5% FeCl3)/NPD (400A)/Alq:C545T (300A, 2%)/Alq (200A)/7ALiF/Al.\nThe 5 mm×5 mm shadow mask was then realigned, and 250 nm of Al metal was deposited to form the cathodes contacting the tops of the pixels. This process provided OLED devices containing several independently addressable 5 mm×5 mm pixels with 4 pixels disposed over nanoparticles.\nElectroluminescence measurements showed enhanced OLED light extraction from the nanoparticle coated pixels. An improvement of 50% at current densities between 2-20 mA/cm2 was shown with this modification.\n50-60 wt % of 10 nm ZrO2 nanoparticles (refractive index of 1.85) were dispersed in acrylate to form a high refractive index (1.68) backfill polymer (obtained from Brant U. Kolb, 145840-77-38F). This high index polymer was mixed with 1 methoxy 2 propanol (10 wt %) and was then coated over the nanoparticles previously coated on PET by a roll-to-roll process with a 5 mil gap (web speed of 10 fpm, dispersion delivery rate of 1.6 cc/min). The resulting coating was dried in air at room temperature; subsequently, it was further dried at 180° F. on the web. The target thickness of the high index polymer was 300 nm; SEM images indicated an actual thickness of about 300 nm in excellent agreement with the target thickness. The surface of the roll-to-roll coating was shown to be very smooth compared with Si3N4 deposited by plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition.\nPreparation of Nanoparticle Coating by Roll-to-Roll Process\nDispersions of 93 nm silica nanoparticles were obtained from the Nalco company. Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA, 98 mole % hydrolyzed, MW 78000) was obtained from Polysciences, Inc., and was dissolved in water with 1 wt % solid content for the related experiments. Dodecylbenzenesulfonic sodium salt (DS-10) surfactant was obtained from Alderich.\nA silica nanoparticle (NP) dispersion solution (93 nm, 1 wt %, 0.1-1 wt % DS-10) was coated on PET film (6-8 mil thickness) by a roll-to-roll process using a 5 mil gap (web speed of 10 fpm, dispersion delivery rate of 3 cc/min). The coating was dried in air at room temperature, and then subsequently it was further dried at 180° F.\nPreparation of 60 nm SiN Stabilization Layer by Plasma-Enhanced Chemical Vapor Deposition\nThe silica-nanoparticle-coated film was then over-coated with a 60 nm thick layer of silicon nitride by plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD), for stabilization of the NPs (PECVD, Model PlasmaLab™ System 100 available form Oxford Instruments, Yatton, UK). The parameters used in the PECVD process are described in Table 5.\nIn a glass jar, 4.5 g of ZrO2HIHC prepared as above, 6.78 g of 50 nm TiO2 dispersion, 24.4 g of 2-butanone, 16.62 g of 1-methoxy-2-propanol were mixed together. The mixture was stirred to form a homogenous white coating solution. The coating solution was applied on above sample (60 nm SiN on 93 nm nanoparticles/PET) using spin-coating at 4000 rpm for 40 seconds (Karl Suss spin coater, spin coater model CT62 from Suss MicroTec, Inc.), resulting in transparent high-index coatings. The coatings were cured using a Fusion UV-Systems Inc. Light-Hammer 6 UV (Gaithersburg, Md.) processor equipped with an H-bulb, operating under nitrogen atmosphere at 100% lamp power at a line speed of 30 feet/min (2 pass). The thickness of the high-index coating was measured to be approximately 150-200 nm. The refractive index of the high index coating is measured as 1.85 using Metricon Prism Coupler.\nAt the completion of the TiO2-polymer backfill coating, a light extraction layer containing the low-index scattering nanostructure planarized with the high-index backfill was produced.\nFabrication of OLED\nApproximately 110 nm-thick ITO was deposited onto the backfill-coated NPs structures through a 5 mm×5 mm pixilated shadow mask to define the anode geometry.\nSubsequently, a simple green organic emitting layer and cathode were deposited to complete the OLED. The OLEDs were fabricated by standard thermal deposition in a vacuum system at base pressure of ca. 10−6 Torr. The following OLED construction was deposited: HIL (300 nm)/HTL (40 nm)/EML (30 nm, 6%)/Alq (20 nm)/LiF (1 nm)/Al (200 nm). After completion, the OLED was encapsulated with 3M encapsulation barrier film employing SAES getter as a desiccant and oxygen scavenger in between the encapsulation film and the OLED cathode.\nThe 5 mm×5 mm shadow mask was then realigned, and 200 nm of Al metal was deposited to form the cathodes contacting the tops of the pixels. This process provided OLED devices containing several independently addressable 5 mm×5 mm pixels with 4 pixels disposed over nanoparticles.\nElectroluminescence measurements showed enhanced OLED light extraction from the nanoparticle coated pixels. An improvement of 50-100% was shown with this modification.", "label": "No"}

{"text": "Anyone who’s had a flooded basement knows the detrimental effects that harsh weather can have on a building. And when your business relies on a certain location, weatherproofing for your commercial building should be prioritized to prevent problems and interruptions in your workflow. Moisture, temperature, or climate conditions can cause costly repairs and other problems.\nA high standard of weatherproofing has numerous advantages. Your building and its occupants are protected. It also reduces utility costs and the risk of damage from extreme weather or pests. In light of the recent weather anomalies occurring since 2021, here are some helpful tips that will ensure your building is safe during extreme weather in the future.\nImprove the Insulation\nInsulation is one way that businesses can reduce their energy consumption costs significantly. By increasing insulation, they can slow down the heat flow from inside the building, which in turn lowers heating costs. On the other hand, insulation is also essential during the colder months to keep any heat generated inside. Insulate the exterior walls in a layer of waterproofing material such as fiberglass or polyurethane. Insulating a building properly provides a significant financial benefit when it comes to heating and cooling costs.\nEnsure the Roof is Weatherproof\nCommercial buildings need to be protected from the elements. Investing in a quality roof that can be easily replaced and repaired is the best way to weatherproof a roof on your commercial building. Diverse types of roofs are available. You will need to select one that fits the specifications of your commercial building, the cost, and the climate. Elastomeric sealants and roof coatings are another option for commercial roofs. Companies like Everest Systems offer durable roof coatings such as silicone and acrylic. These types of coatings are easy to maintain and repair over time, making it a great long-term choice.\nInsulate All Pipes\nPipelines transport water, steam, oil, and gas from one point to another. Pipes that are not properly insulated can cause a major problem for building owners if the temperature of the pipes drops low enough to freeze. This can cause a pipe burst, which would make the water in your building unavailable. Proper insulation is the best way to keep the temperature of your building’s piping systems at a constant level.\nCheck the Interior Climate Control\nMake sure the HVAC system is working properly. The first step is to check your roof for leaks. If you know about it, you can take steps to fix it before it becomes a problem. Next, make sure all your windows are properly sealed and don’t fog up in winter weather or let too much heat in during hot weather. Finally, ensure that all your doors are properly sealed so that no heat or cold escapes through them.\nSince a commercial building is a large, multi-story complex that’s challenging to maintain, it’s essential to weatherproof it with the steps outlined here to save expenses over the long run and ensure building safety. Your employees and business success alike will benefit greatly from this change.", "label": "No"}

{"text": "Hey y’all, welcome back! I know it’s been a minute since I wrote on the blog but I wanted to create space for Black voices online. Even though I’m back to posting, I don’t plan on things looking exactly the same. I want to continue to share Black-owned businesses and start featuring them more on the blog. I’m also going to continue to post about social justice on social media. With that being said, today’s post is 6 outfits I’ve been wearing and loving lately.\nPink Swiss Dot Dress\nThis dress is a lightweight, light pink dress in a swiss dot fabric. It is super comfortable and because of the weight of the fabric, it’s perfect for all the hot days we’ve been having in Boston. It’s essentially a huge t-shirt, but looks dressed up, which is perfect for my online classes and working from home. I styled this dress with simple silver jewelry and sparkly sandals.\nCasual Tennis Skirt\nIn a recent blog post, I shared three tennis skirt outfits. I’ve been wearing my tennis skirts a lot because I love the freedom of a skirt and the breathability of athleisure. It’s such a comfortable, feminine outfit perfect for the summertime. I wore this outfit with my hair in a low pony, pearl jewelry, and sneakers.\nLight Blue Lilly\nThis Lilly skort is one of my favorite pieces from the After Party Sale last fall. Unfortunately, I only got to wear it once or twice after buying it before I had to put it away for the winter. I’m so glad I got to pull this one back out because it is so fun and summery and looks adorable with this little blue tank from Target. I paired this outfit with silver jewelry, sparkly sandals, and a matching scrunchie.\nI recently picked up this dress from the LoveShackFancy for Target collection and I love it. The flowiness is perfect for sticky days like we’ve been having lately. This dress definitely looks short because of the cut, but is a perfect length for me. I wore this dress with silver jewelry and sparkly sandals.\nIf you know me, you know I’m not a huge fan of rompers because I think they’re mostly too short. That’s why I love Lilly’s romper dresses. They look like dresses but have the functionality of rompers. I love this one because it’s so simple and girly. I wore this romper with a matching scrunchie, gold jewelry, and sparkly sandals.\nCute and Colorful\nI am definitely not afraid of color in my wardrobe and I love being able to pull out my favorite fun dresses during the summertime. I picked up this cute Lilly shift in the After Party Sale last fall and I love it because it’s the anniversary print so it tells the story of the brand. I wore this dress with silver jewelry, a pink scrunchie, and nude sandals.\nI hope y’all enjoyed my summer outfit picks and that you’re staying safe wherever you are.\nLove from Boston,", "label": "No"}

{"text": "LinkedIn as a Public Relations tool\nWhile there is no ‘one-fits-all’ model in the sphere of digital B2B public relations, LinkedIn is arguably the most adaptable social-media platform in terms of strategic, specialist community-focused communications and message dissemination.\nFor communications professionals a LinkedIn presence has effectively become de rigueur. According to PR News Online, a 92% of journalists are now on the platform. This fact considered, in the context of public relations, it is crucial for result-driven practitioners to see beyond LinkedIn as a networking portal and engage with it as a communications platform.\nPR objectives: In the context of a PR campaign, before engaging with LinkedIn as a communications tool it is essential to define the objectives of the effort, in terms of campaign or organisational aims.\nIdentifying communities: Central to defining your objectives when using LinkedIn as a campaign tool is to evaluate the relevance of the platform to your target audience. Does your audience constitute a community on LinkedIn? Is it possible to construct a community from a cohort of users for the purposed of your campaign, or the organisation’s long-term public relations and marketing strategies?\nIdentifying thought leaders: In order to maximise on the effectiveness of your strategy it is important to identify the key members of your target community, or the presence of pivotal competitors or comparative organizations or individuals who have developed an effective model for harnessing LinkedIn for PR and marketing purposes. Building relationships with influential users can result in the establishment of mutually beneficially links and endorsements across several platforms.\nDefine your message: It is important to ensure that your campaign or brand message, as it is to appear on the platform, is clearly defined. The message should encapsulate the core objectives of the wider campaign or the organisation. It should also sync with the organisation’s brand in terms of language and image. In this regard a professional level of copy writing is key.\nPlan your content: Expanding from the definition of the company / campaign message and brand language, is the importance of the appearance of your LinkedIn page. This is defined by the categories, text mass, and elements (logos, images, links etc) that are relevant for inclusion. Again, good copy writing is vital: readers should not be over whelmed with extraneous detail; each element should be finely distilled, precise and uniform in tone.\nThe campaign / brand face: In order to create greater interest and reader engagement, brand confidence and though leadership status, it is productive to feature prominent team members. Profile text should be concise yet informative and accompanying images should appear professional. Each linked employee page should be policed to ensure that it is uniform in terms of content and brand language.\nLinking platforms: In terms of using other social-media platforms, as with LinkedIn you must decide if they are relevant to the PR campaign or the organisation and if they actually contribute to achieving your objectives. In terms of company pages, plug-ins to twitter feeds and RSS feeds to company or employee blogs, are of unquantifiable value for the dissemination of messages; particularly if each element is managed in tandem and carries the same branding / message throughout.\nBuilding your thought leadership status: Factors that are key to achieving thought leadership status include engaging with the discussions initiated by substantial voices in the community that are relevant to your campaign / brand. Posting regular blogs and initiate discussions with your relevant communities constitutes the next stage. Also, employing the variety of tools available on LinkedIn, such as Answers, will encourage readers to engage with content and return to the page – seeing it as an informative forum that also values their point of view.\nThese are just some of the many factors for consideration in the use of LinkedIn in a public relations campaign. At the end of the day, getting your hands dirty and exploring LinkedIn will develop your proficiency and creativity in this regard. However, the crucial hurdle to clear, it the key reevaluation of LinkedIn’s function, and the embracing of its capacity for communicating a campaign message and building brand awareness among relevant communities.", "label": "No"}

Reaction-bonded silicon nitride can be formed using ultra-fine silicon powder. This system exhibits rapid, low temperature, near net shape processing. However, rapid reaction rates encountered when nitriding these fine powders requires the introduction of more sophisticated process control than that offered by traditional processing techniques. A computer controlled nitriding system has been implemented that allows intelligent real-time control of the nitriding process. Control is based on an analytical process model which predicts a gas uptake curve for optimal processing. The molar volume of gas introduced as the reaction proceeds is monitored and controlled, as are the temperature and pressure. The control system uses this information to modify the heating rate and the concentration of nitrogen in the system, which controls the reaction kinetics on a real-time basis.", "label": "No"}

Even in the warm weather, they look classy and chic. Thinking of ways of making the right style statement? We bring you the best looks that captivated our attention. These stars not only exude style but also know how to carry any look effortlessly.\nOne of the most celebrated actors of this generation, Saba Qamar is busy promoting her upcoming movie Ghabrana Nahi Hai, slated to release this Eid. The actress has the ability to pull off both traditional and contemporary looks with finesse. She is giving off boss lady vibes in one of her promotions sporting a bespoke tailored grey suit. The actor has accessorized her look with minimal jewelry and a micro purse. As for her hair and makeup, she is flaunting soft tousled waves, soft eye makeup and light pink lip colour. Saba effortlessly rocks this outfit.\nThe ever-stylish actor Sanam Saeed, who recently appeared in the movie Ishrat: Made in China pushes the envelope further by carrying off a classy and clean silhouette. She is seen wearing a nude colored kaftan that looks more like a trench coat and completed her look with white trousers and beige heels. However, her maroon statement earrings add a hint of colour and we are all for it. Her hair tied in a high ponytail and perfect winged eyeliner complement her overall look as both classy and chic.\nThe model takes it to the next level by rocking a white sleeveless top paired with brown leather pants. Take a cue from Sona Rafiq and add some luxe accessories — think Louis Vuitton bag and sparkly Les Petits Joueurs sandals and you are all set to go. As for her makeup she went with winged eyeliner and a coral lip colour. As for her hairstyle, she opted for tousled waves with a centre parting. Minimal and simple, she elegantly rocks this look. All we can say - it’s chic, edgy and summer appropriate.\nThe Superstar actor and one of the official ambassadors for the British Asian Trust was recently in London to attend the Peace of Mind Campaign. While the event was to help raise awareness and break the stigma around mental health across South Asia, we saw Mahira Khan pulling off a traditional look. The floral khaddi silk front-open peplum with maroori work and matching lehenga by Sania Maskatiya is definitely fun and versatile. As for her makeup, she sported shimmery pink lids and kept the rest of her look fresh and peachy. You can opt for a similar look and be a head-turner this Eid.\nThere’s nothing like a pop of colour to help your simple outfit stand out. Take some inspiration from actor Maya Ali, who adds a touch of pink through her makeup and Amina Muaddi heels. Seen here wearing a crisp white cotton shirt with printed jeans, Maya Ali certainly looks beautiful sporting candy pink eye makeup with matching lip color and half-up ponytail and beachy waves.

{"text": "RAF Dumfries and the Bomber War\nThis exhibition is all about our home airfield. In it, we tell the story of the airfield itself, why it was built and the role it would play in WW2. We also tell the story of the people who worked here, both servicemen and women from all over the country as well as civilians working in the repair depots on site. The men and women of the Air Transport Auxiliary are mentioned, as they were constantly delivering and collecting aircraft to our various units on the airfield. We also cover the maintenance units, both for aircraft storage and repair and for material, which were busy throughout the war.\nHowever, we make a feature of the story of the training units that were based here, and the instructors and pupils who passed through their doors. Navigation, gunnery and bomb-aiming were the principal courses delivered by experienced staff, often on a break from front-line service. The pupils who completed their training most likely went on to serve in Bomber Command, and we try to show a little of what that experience would be like once they joined a squadron. You can look at the conditions a crew would face on a mission in our Halifax cockpit replica and examine our restored Frazer Nash gun turret.\nWe also cover the other main airfields in Dumfries & Galloway, telling a little of the activities carried out at each one, from training and bombing trials through to anti-submarine patrols over the Atlantic Ocean.", "label": "No"}
{"text": "Efficient analysis of business case study\nThe case study analysis is a popular way of critical thinking development in students, especially those ones, who master business studies. Case study in learning process is a complex method that consists of several stages:\nfamiliarization with the text of the case;\n- Case study analysis;\n- Discussion of the case, discussions, presentations;\n- Estimation of panelists;\nSummarizing the results of the discussion.\nFirst and foremost, the proposed guidelines are not the only way to solve case studies. Each business problem is unique to some extent. Below, we consider the most important common elements that can be used to analyze any business situation.\nStep 1: Read and re-read the text of the case\nEach case is a review of the business problem, which requires the development of a number of solutions to overcome it. Decisions should be based on an understanding of the facts presented in the case. Therefore, the main objective of the first stage of consideration of any business case is a careful reading of its terms.\nDuring the first superficial reading of the case, the student must get the gist of the situation told, mark the basic facts but not draw neither any conclusions nor decisions. During the second course of the next reading of the text, a student may take short notes or use a symbols or drawings that will help to convey the key moments of the text. It is important to ask questions in order to identify the problem of the case.\nStep 2: Identify the main problems\nWhile reading a text of the case, try not just to assimilate the information given, but also analyze it critically and respond the following questions:\n- What is the problem?\n- What are the reasons that have led to this situation?\n- What kind of action should be taken in this situation?\nStep 3: Analysis of the facts\nOnce a student read case twice and answer the questions, she should proceed to analyze the facts in order to identify the most important parameters that affect the environment and the company and find issues and causes that root in the problem.\nThe difficulties associated with the identification of problems and the causes begot them, depend on the situation described in the case. In many situations, the problem is located at the surface. What is described as an obvious seemingly perceived as a problem may be only a symptom of a deeper and more fundamental problem. Therefore, it is vital to reread the text twice.\nBe aware, that the real problem and the reasons that might lead to their emergence, detected in the course of scrutiny and analysis of the basic facts of the case. Stage of defining the problem is critical for all of the following stages of analysis. In addition, the time spent will be compensated in the future.\nStep 4: Hypothesis development and finding alternative solutions\nThe study of the decision-making process shows that most people are limited to only one part of the information and begins to act in one direction only. Experienced managers analyze all available information and detect a variety of ways to overcome problems or implementing opportunities to achieve their goals. The next step after identifying problems is the generation of possible alternative ways to proceed. Some of them may be imperfect and quickly disregarded from further consideration, but at least three main alternatives (strategic directions) must be found and deeply analyzed.\nStep 5. Evaluation of alternative solutions to case study\nStrategic directions should be deeply analyzed in order to solve the problems. There should be a list of strengths and weaknesses of each alternative. It is useful, for example, to analyze the profitability goals of the company, demand in the market in which it operates, the attitude of buyers, their motivation, a behavior of competitors, marketing environment in general, the main economic indicators of the company.\nStep 6: Decisions and/or development of recommendations\nThe real market conditions indecisiveness can be fatal for the company. Therefore, when considering the case study, a student must choose and justify scientifically the way to solve the problem and her solution implementation. The choice should be characterized by transparency, clarity of arguments, facts, analysis perfection.", "label": "No"}
{"text": "Tutor profile: Hannah H.\nSubject: US Government and Politics\nThe United States Constitution as we know it, was preceded by a different governing document: what was that document? What are the key differences?\nThe United States Constitution was preceded by the Articles of Confederation. The first major difference between the Constitution and the Articles of Confederation is that under the articles each state retained sovereignty where the Constitution requires each state surrendering certain powers to the central government. In addition, the Constitution included an interstate clause which allowed the government to deal with disputes in a better way than before. It is also important to note that the Articles of Confederation set up a unicameral body while the Constitution set up a bicameral legislative body.\nSubject: US History\nWhat were the major challenges to reconstruction at the end of the American Civil War?\nAmong the major challenges to reconstruction were the ideological differences between the north and the south. These ideological differences include, but are not limited to, differing opinions on slavery, states' rights, and taxes. Another major challenge is the economic discrepancy between the north and the south following the war. The south's economy had been crippled by the war while the north was prospering and had little sympathy for it's counterparts. Finally, reconstruction was hurt by the attitudes that each side had developed toward the other while at war.\nSubject: Criminal Justice\nWhat are the core components of the criminal justice system? How do they interact with one another?\nThe criminal justice system in made up of three main components: police, courts, and corrections. The police are responsible for enforcing laws, investigating crimes, and providing emergency services. The courts are responsible for maintaining impartiality and fairness, determining guilt and innocence, and upholding the law. Finally, corrections are responsible for rehabilitating, reforming, and reintegrating offenders and providing humane conditions for offenders. Each branch requires the others to effectively operate and each branch has to be responsible for just their duties in order to keep the justice system running effectively and efficiently.\nneeds and Hannah will reply soon.", "label": "No"}
{"text": "I stepped out of a mist and I knew I am. I am what I am. And then I thought, ‘But what have I been before?’ And then I found that I had been in a mist, not knowing to differentiate myself from things; I was just one thing among many things.”\n~ Carl Jung, The Red Book\nI used to think about Jung and bird dreams whenever I watched rafts of ducks sleeping on Lake Merritt in Oakland, their heads tucked back under wings as they swept the lake like feathered Roombas.\nI wondered if they were, as Jung suggested about human dream states, creating psychic wholeness by connecting their conscious and unconscious realms. Externally, for us, there’s serenity in birds flocked together for slumber … Canvasbacks revealing just one wary red eye, Ruddy Ducks spinning with their sail of a tail, Scaup males waking before the rest and rustling the females to breakfast and mollusks. They utter the lightest peeps in their own language as their unconscious dream life meets life’s surface tension.\nIn the comments section of a 2001 MIT newsletter, a reader asked:\n“Does the ability to dream require a level of self-consciousness or at least the ability to conceptualize an objective world-view? How, otherwise, does the animal brain construct a dream experience that is not a carbon-copy of events simply regurgitated through synaptic pathways, but a ‘creative’ narrative employing events and data in a new narrative?”\nThis question was in response to a study where MIT researchers found that rats who’d been trained to run through mazes, exhibited brain activity in their sleep which suggested they were re-processing their day’s events, or collating multiple events, to produce the same brain response as if they’d been running the maze physically.\nAt the University of Chicago in 2000, researchers working with Zebra finches found similar replication of brain-wave activity in bird sleep. They concluded that the finches were rehearsing their songs in their dreams, possibly related to enhanced success in mating, given the song’s importance in courtship.\nSo, when ducks dream, do they replay their best dives and dabbles? Do they work through the trauma of evading a hunt, or evoke all sensory pleasures in memory of distant rice fields? Are they forming universal and species intelligence through some process of the collective unconscious, like the 100th monkey learning to wash sweet potatoes? Or are they releasing their brains to create something magnificent and transcendent that their feathered, webbed bodies can never manifest on this earth plane?\nLast month, I saw a flock of Western Grebes floating on Elliott Bay, their necks all tucked into plumage in characteristic S-curves. A work boat sped past their raft and jolted the crew out of slumber.\nYou can barely see the grebes behind the boat in this crop.\nThrough my telephoto lens, with distance compressed, it was difficult to say just how close the vessel got, but it was close enough that the grebes scattered toward me and the shore.\nI think about how often this occurs in their lives — and how precious a night it is, for those of us lucky enough to sleep without having one eye open, without our plumes bristling in the wind. That is, to sleep in a fully altered consciousness, in a bed, undisturbed by predation or guns or weather or hunger or motor boats.\nLao Tzu said that “life is a series of natural and spontaneous changes. Don’t resist them; that only creates sorrow.” In my time with our wild brothers and sisters, I have concluded that they are better attuned to this flow than we’ll ever be, whether one attributes their facility of adaptation to instinct or enlightenment. Watching birds sleep and dream and then be roused — and then reform like a galaxy, swirling back into rafts on a distant swell — makes me believe that they know they are “just one thing among many things,” as Jung declared. Even as they are firmly rooted in their individual survival, they organize their experience around the unity of an avian archetype. Perhaps they are aware that existence is ephemeral, their heightened sense of danger a burden, but also an antidote to the complacency that allows us to do things like drive motorized vessels through rafts of dreaming birds.\n[My grebe shots were photographed with the Olympus OM-D + Lumix 100-300mm. In the middle photo, the center grebe is looking up at an eagle passing high overhead. The collage was post-processed in Lightroom and Photoshop.

{"text": "secsh (SSH client) is a program for logging into a remote machine and for executing commands on a remote a machine. You can also call this program as ssh. secsh is intended to replace rlogin and rsh, and provide secure encrypted communications between two untrusted hosts over an insecure network. X11 connections, arbitrary TCP/IP ports and Unix-domain sockets can also be forwarded over the secure channel.\nsecsh connects and logs into the specified hostname. The user must prove his/her identity to the remote machine using one of several methods depending on the protocol version used.\nFirst, if the machine the user logs in from is listed in $ROOTDIR/etc/hosts.equiv or $ROOTDIR/etc/shosts.equiv on the remote machine, and the user names are the same on both sides, the user is immediately permitted to log in. Second, if .rhosts or .shosts exists in the user's home directory on the remote machine and contains a line containing the name of the client machine and the name of the user on that machine, the user is permitted to log in. This form of authentication alone is normally not allowed by the server because it is not secure.\nThe second authentication method is the rhosts or hosts.equiv method combined with RSA-based host authentication. It means that if the login would be permitted by ~/.rhosts, ~/.shosts, $ROOTDIR/etc/hosts.equiv, or $ROOTDIR/etc/shosts.equiv, and if additionally the server can verify the client's host key (see $ROOTDIR/etc/ssh_known_hosts and ~/.ssh/known_hosts in the FILES section), only then login is permitted. This authentication method closes security holes due to IP spoofing, DNS spoofing and routing spoofing. [Note to the administrator: $ROOTDIR/etc/hosts.equiv, ~/.rhosts, and the rlogin/rsh protocol in general, are inherently insecure and should be disabled if security is desired.]\nAs a third authentication method, secsh supports RSA based authentication. The scheme is based on public-key cryptography: there are cryptosystems where encryption and decryption are done using separate keys, and it is not possible to derive the decryption key from the encryption key. RSA is one such system. The idea is that each user creates a public/private key pair for authentication purposes. The server knows the public key, and only the user knows the private key. The file ~/.ssh/authorized_keys lists the public keys that are permitted for logging in. When the user logs in, the secsh program tells the server which key pair it would like to use for authentication. The server checks if this key is permitted, and if so, sends the user (actually the secsh program running on behalf of the user) a challenge, a random number, encrypted by the user's public key. The challenge can only be decrypted using the proper private key. The user's client then decrypts the challenge using the private key, proving that he/she knows the private key but without disclosing it to the server.\nsecsh implements the RSA authentication protocol automatically. The user creates his/her RSA key pair by running secsh-keygen This stores the private key in $USERPROFILE/.ssh/identity and the public key in $USERPROFILE/.ssh/identity.pub in the user's home directory. The user should then copy the identity.pub to ~/.ssh/authorized_keys in his/her home directory on the remote machine (the authorized_keys file corresponds to the conventional ~/.rhosts file, and has one key per line, though the lines can be very long). After this, the user can log in without giving the password. RSA authentication is much more secure than rhosts authentication.\nA variation on public key authentication is available in the form of certificate authentication: instead of a set of public/private keys, signed certificates are used. This has the advantage that a single trusted certification authority can be used in place of many public/private keys. See the CERTIFICATES section of secsh-keygen for more information.\nThe most convenient way to use public key or certificate authentication may be with an authentication agent. See secsh-agent for more information.\nIf other authentication methods fail, secsh prompts the user for a password. The password is sent to the remote host for checking; however, since all communications are encrypted, the password cannot be seen by someone listening on the network.\nWhen a user connects using the protocol version 2 different authentication methods are available. Using the default values for PreferredAuthentications, the client will try to authenticate first using the public key method; if this method fails password authentication is attempted, and finally if this method fails keyboard-interactive authentication and password authentication are tried.\nThe public key method is similar to RSA authentication described in the previous section and allows the RSA, DSA, ECDSA, or ED25519 algorithm to be used: The client uses his private key, $USERPROFILE/.ssh/id_dsa, $USERPROFILE/.ssh/id_ecdsa, $USERPROFILE/.ssh/id_ed25519 or $USERPROFILE/.ssh/id_rsa, to sign the session identifier and sends the result to the server. The server checks whether the matching public key is listed in ~/.ssh/authorized_keys and grants access if both the key is found and the signature is correct. The session identifier is derived from a shared Diffie-Hellman value and is only known to the client and the server.\nIf public key authentication fails or is not available a password can be sent encrypted to the remote host for proving the user's identity.\nAdditionally, secsh supports hostbased or challenge response authentication.\nProtocol 2 provides additional mechanisms for confidentiality (the traffic is encrypted using AES, 3DES, Blowfish, CAST128, or Arcfour) and integrity (hmac-md5, hmac-sha1, hmac-sha2-256, hmac-sha2-512, umac-64, umac-128, hmac-ripemd160). Note that protocol 1 lacks a strong mechanism for ensuring the integrity of the connection.\nWhen the user's identity has been accepted by the server, the server either executes the given command, or logs into the machine and gives the user a normal shell on the remote machine. All communication with the remote command or shell will be automatically encrypted.\nIf a pseudo-terminal has been allocated (normal login session), the user may use the escape characters noted below.\nIf no pseudo tty has been allocated, the session is transparent and can be used to reliably transfer binary data. On most systems, setting the escape character to none will also make the session transparent even if a tty is used.\nThe session terminates when the command or shell on the remote machine exits and all X11 and TCP/IP connections have been closed.\nWhen a pseudo terminal has been requested, secsh supports a number of functions through the use of an escape character.\nA single tilde character can be sent as ~~\nor by following the tilde by a character other than those described below.\nThe escape character must always follow a newline to be interpreted as\nThe escape character can be changed in configuration files using the\nconfiguration directive or on the command line by the\nThe supported escapes (assuming the default ~) are:\nList forwarded connections\nBackground secsh at logout when waiting for forwarded connection / X11 sessions to terminate\nDisplay a list of escape characters\nSend a BREAK to the remote system (only useful for SSH protocol version 2 and if the peer supports it).\nOpen command line. Currently this allows the addition of port forwardings using the\n-L, -Rand -Doptions (see above). It also allows the cancellation of existing port-forwardings with -KL[bind_address:]portfor local, -KR[bind_address:]portfor remote and -KD[bind_address:]portfor dynamic port-forwardings. !command allows the user to execute a local command if the PermitLocalCommand option is enabled.

This is normal, and happens because secsh creates a proxy X server on the server machine for forwarding the connections over the encrypted channel.\nsecsh will also automatically set up Xauthority data on the server machine. For this purpose, it will generate a random authorization cookie, store it in Xauthority on the server, and verify that any forwarded connections carry this cookie and replace it by the real cookie when the connection is opened. The real authentication cookie is never sent to the server machine (and no cookies are sent in the plain).\nIf the ForwardAgent variable is set to yes\n(or, see the description of the\nForwarding of arbitrary TCP/IP connections over the secure channel can be specified either on the command line or in a configuration file. One possible application of TCP/IP forwarding is a secure connection to an electronic purse; another is going through firewalls.\nsecsh automatically maintains and checks a database containing identifications for all hosts it has ever been used with. Host keys are stored in $USERPROFILE/.ssh/known_hosts in the user's home directory Additionally, the $ROOTDIR/etc/ssh_known_hosts file is automatically checked for known hosts. Any new hosts are automatically added to the user's file. If a host's identification ever changes, secsh warns about this and disables password authentication to prevent a trojan horse from getting the user's password. Another purpose of this mechanism is to prevent man-in-the-middle attacks which could otherwise be used to circumvent the encryption. The StrictHostKeyChecking option (see below) can be used to prevent logins to machines whose host key is not known or has changed.\nDisables forwarding of the authentication agent connection.\nEnables forwarding of the authentication agent connection. This can also be specified on a per-host basis in a configuration file.\nAgent forwarding should be enabled with caution. Users with the ability to bypass file permissions on the remote host (for the agent's UNIX-domain socket) can access the local agent through the forwarded connection. An attacker cannot obtain key material from the agent, however they can perform operations on the keys that enable them to authenticate using the identities loaded into the agent.\nSpecifies the interface to transmit from on machines with multiple interfaces or aliased addresses.\nRequests compression of all data (including standard input, standard output, standard error, and data for forwarded X11, TCP/IP, and Unix-domain connections). The compression algorithm is the same used by gzip and the compression level can be controlled by the CompressionLevel option (see below) for protocol version 1. Compression is desirable on modem lines and other slow connections, but will only slow down things on fast networks. The default value can be set on a host-by-host basis in the configuration files; see the Compress option below.\nSelects the cipher specification for encrypting the session.\nProtocol version 1 allows specification of a single cipher. The supported values are 3des, blowfish, and des.\nFor protocol version 2, cipher_spec is a comma-separated list of ciphers listed in order of preference. See the Ciphers keyword for more information.\nSpecifies a local \"dynamic\" application-level port forwarding. This works by allocating a socket to listen to port on the local side, optionally bound to a specified bind_address. Whenever a connection is made to this port, the connection is forwarded over the secure channel, and the application protocol is then used to determine where to connect to from the remote machine. Currently the SOCKS4 and SOCKS5 protocols are supported, and secsh will act as a SOCKS server.\nIPv6 addresses can be specified by enclosing the address in square brackets. Only the superuser can forward privileged ports. By default, the local port is bound in accordance with the GatewayPorts setting. However, an explicit bind_address may be used to bind the connection to a specific address. The bind_address of localhost indicates that the listening port be bound for local use only, while an empty address or * indicates that the port should be available from all interfaces.\nAppend debug logs to log_file instead of standard error.\nSets the escape character for sessions with a pty (default: ~). The escape character is only recognized at the beginning of a line. The escape character followed by a dot () closes the connection, followed by control-Z suspends the connection, and followed by itself sends the escape character once. Setting the character to none disables any escapes and makes the session fully transparent.\nSpecifies an alternative per-user configuration file. If a configuration file is given on the command line, the system-wide configuration information in the registry is ignored. The default for the per-user configuration file is stored in the registry.\nRequests secsh to go to background just before command execution. This is useful if secsh is going to ask for passwords or passphrases, but the user wants it in the background. This implies -n. The recommended way to start X11 programs at a remote site is with something like ssh -f host xterm.\nAllows remote hosts to connect to local forwarded ports. If used on a multiplexed connection, then this option must be specified on the master process.\nSelects the file from which the identity (private key) for RSA, DSA, ECDSA, or ED25519 authentication is read. Default is $USERPROFILE/.ssh/identity in the user's home directory. Identity files may also be specified on a per-host basis in the configuration file. It is possible to have multiple\n-ioptions (and multiple identities specified in configuration files).\nsecsh will also try to load certificate information from the filename obtained by appending -cert.pub to identity filenames.\nSpecifies which smartcard device to use. The argument is the device secsh should use to communicate with a smartcard used for storing the user's private RSA key.\nEnables GSSAPI-based authentication and forwarding (delegation) of GSSAPI credentials to the server.\nDisables forwarding of GSSAPI credentials to the server.\nSpecifies that the given port on the local (client) host is to be forwarded to the given host and port on the remote side. This works by allocating a socket to listen to port on the local side, and whenever a connection is made to this port, the connection is forwarded over the secure channel, and a connection is made to host port hostport from the remote machine. Port forwardings can also be specified in the configuration file. IPv6 addresses can be specified by enclosing the address in square brackets. Only root can forward privileged ports.\nSpecifies the user to log in as on the remote machine. This also may be specified on a per-host basis in the configuration file.\nAdditionally, for protocol version 2 a comma-separated list of MAC (message authentication code) algorithms can be specified in order of preference. See the MACs keyword for more information.\nRedirects stdin from /dev/null (actually, prevents reading from stdin). This must be used when secsh is run in the background. A common trick is to use this to run X11 programs on a remote machine. For example, ssh -n shadows.cs.hut.fi emacs & will start an emacs on shadows.cs.hut.fi, and the X11 connection will be automatically forwarded over an encrypted channel. The secsh program will be put in the background. (This does not work if secsh needs to ask for a password or passphrase; see also the\nDoes not execute a remote command. This is useful for just forwarding ports (protocol version 2 only).\nControl an active connection multiplexing master process. When the\n-Ooption is specified, the ctl_cmd argument is interpreted and passed to the master process. Valid commands are: check (check that the master process is running), forward (request forwardings without command execution), cancel (cancel forwardings), exit (request the master to exit), and stop (request the master to stop accepting further multiplexing requests). -ooption\nSpecifies options in the format used in the configuration file. This is useful for specifying options for which there is no separate command-line flag.\nSpecifies the port to connect to on the remote host.\n-Qcipher | cipher-auth | mac | kex | key\nQueries ssh for the algorithms supported for the specified version 2. The available features are: cipher (supported symmetric ciphers), cipher-auth (supported symmetric ciphers that support authenticated encryption), mac (supported message integrity codes), kex (key exchange algorithms), key (key types).\nQuiet mode. Causes all warning and diagnostic messages to be suppressed. Only fatal errors are displayed.\nSpecifies that the given port on the remote (server) host is to be forwarded to the given host and port on the local side. This works by allocating a socket to listen to port on the remote side, and whenever a connection is made to this port, the connection is forwarded over the secure channel, and a connection is made to host port hostport from the local machine. Port forwardings can also be specified in the configuration file. Privileged ports can be forwarded only when logging in as root on the remote machine. IPv6 addresses can be specified by enclosing the address in square brackets.\nBy default, the listening socket on the server will be bound to the loopback interface only. This may be overridden by specifying a bind_address. An empty bind_address, or the address `*', indicates that the remote socket should listen on all interfaces. Specifying a remote bind_address will only succeed if the server's GatewayPorts option is enabled (see secshd.\nIf the port argument is 0, the listen port will be dynamically allocated on the server and reported to the client at run time. When used together with\n-Oforward the allocated port will be printed to the standard output. -Sctl_path\nSpecifies the location of a control socket for connection sharing, or the string none to disable connection sharing. Refer to the description of ControlPath and ControlMaster for details.\nMay be used to request invocation of a subsystem on the remote system. Subsystems are a feature of the SSH2 protocol which facilitate the use of SSH as a secure transport for other application (eg. sftp). The subsystem is specified as the remote command.\nForce pseudo-tty allocation. This can be used to execute arbitrary screen-based programs on a remote machine, which can be very useful, for example, when implementing menu services. Multiple\n-toptions force tty allocation, even if secsh has no local tty. -T\nDisable pseudo-tty allocation.\nVerbose mode. Causes secsh to print debugging messages about its progress. This is helpful in debugging connection, authentication, and configuration problems. Multiple\n-voptions increases the verbosity. Maximum is 3. -Whost:port\nRequests that standard input and output on the client be forwarded to host on port over the secure channel. Implies\n-N, -T, ExitOnForwardFailure and ClearAllForwardings. Works with Protocol version 2 only. -x\nDisables X11 forwarding.\nEnables X11 forwarding. This can also be specified on a per-host basis in a configuration file.\nX11 forwarding should be enabled with caution. Users with the ability to bypass file permissions on the remote host (for the user's X authorization database) can access the local X11 display through the forwarded connection. An attacker may then be able to perform activities such as keystroke monitoring.\nEnables trusted X11 forwarding. Trusted X11 forwardings are not subjected to the X11 SECURITY extension controls.\nWrites log information to the application event log. By default, this information is sent to the standard error stream.\nForces secsh to try protocol version 1 only.\nForces secsh to try protocol version 2 only.\nForces secsh to use IPv4 addresses only.\nForces secsh to use IPv6 addresses only.\nsecsh obtains configuration data from the following sources in the following order: command line options, user's configuration in the Windows registry, and system-wide configuration (stored in the Windows registry and configured with the PTC MKS Toolkit control panel applet). For each parameter, the first obtained value will be used. The configuration files contain sections bracketed by Host specifications, and that section is only applied for hosts that match one of the patterns given in the specification. The matched host name is the one given on the command line.\nSince the first obtained value for each parameter is used, more host-specific declarations should be given near the beginning of the file, and general defaults at the end.\nThe configuration file has the following format:\nEmpty lines and lines starting with # are comments.\nOtherwise a line is of the format keyword arguments.\nConfiguration options may be separated by whitespace or optional whitespace\nand exactly one =; the latter format is useful to avoid the\nneed to quote whitespace when specifying configuration options using the\nsecsh, scp, and sftp\nThe possible keywords and their meanings are as follows (note that the configuration files are case-sensitive):\nRestricts the following declarations (up to the next Host keyword) to be only for those hosts that match one of the patterns given after the keyword. * and ? can be used as wildcards in the patterns. A single * as a pattern can be used to provide global defaults for all hosts. The host is the hostname argument given on the command line (that is, the name is not converted to a canonicalized host name before matching).\nSpecifies which address family to use when connecting. Valid arguments are any, inet (use IPv4 only), or inet6 (use IPv6 only).\nIf set to yes, passphrase/password querying will be disabled. This option is useful in scripts and other batch jobs where you have no user to supply the password. The argument must be yes or no. The default is no.\nSpecifies the interface to transmit from on machines with multiple interfaces or aliased addresses. Note that this option does not work if UsePrivilegedPort is set to yes.\nWhen CanonicalizeHostname is enabled, this option specifies the list of domain suffixes in which to search for the specified destination host.\nSpecifies whether to fail with an error when hostname canonicalization fails. The default, yes, will attempt to look up the unqualified hostname using the system resolver's search rules. A value of no will cause secsh to fail instantly if CanonicalizeHostname is enabled and the target hostname cannot be found in any of the domains specified by CanonicalDomains.\nControls whether explicit hostname canonicalization is performed. The default, no, is not to perform any name rewriting and let the system resolver handle all hostname lookups. If set to yes then, for connections that do not use a ProxyCommand, secsh will attempt to canonicalize the hostname specified on the command line using the CanonicalDomains suffixes and CanonicalizePermittedCNAMEs rules. If CanonicalizeHostname is set to always, then canonicalization is applied to proxied connections too.\nIf this option is enabled and canonicalisation results in the target hostname changing, then the configuration files are processed again using the new target name to pick up any new configuration in matching Host stanzas.\nSpecifies the maximum number of dot characters in a hostname before canonicalization is disabled. The default, 1, allows a single dot (i.e. hostname.subdomain).\nSpecifies rules to determine whether CNAMEs should be followed when canonicalizing hostnames. The rules consist of one or more arguments of source_domain_list:target_domain_list, where source_domain_list is a pattern-list of domains that may follow CNAMEs in canonicalization, and target_domain_list is a pattern- list of domains that they may resolve to. For example, *.a.example.com:*.b.example.com,*.c.example.com will allow hostnames matching *.a.example.com to be canonicalized to names in the *.b.example.com or *.c.example.com domains.\nSpecifies whether to use challenge-response authentication. The argument to this keyword must be yes or no. The default is yes.\nIf this flag is set to yes, secsh will additionally check the host IP address in the known_hosts file. This allows secsh to detect if a host key changed due to DNS spoofing. If the option is set to no, the check will not be executed. The default is yes.\nSpecifies the cipher to use for encrypting the session in protocol version 1. Currently, blowfish, 3des, and des are supported. des is only supported in the secsh client for interoperability with legacy protocol 1 implementations that do not support the 3des cipher. Its use is strongly discouraged due to crytographic weakness. The default is 3des.\nSpecifies the ciphers allowed for protocol version 2 in order of preference. Multiple ciphers must be comma-separated. The supported ciphers are\n3des-cbc, aes128-cbc, aes192-cbc, aes256-cbc, aes128-ctr, aes192-ctr, aes256-ctr, firstname.lastname@example.org, email@example.com, arcfour, arcfour128, arcfour256, blowfish-cbc, cast128-cbc, firstname.lastname@example.org\nThe default is\naes128-ctr,aes192-ctr,aes256-ctr, email@example.com,firstname.lastname@example.org, email@example.com, arcfour256,arcfour128, aes128-cbc,3des-cbc,blowfish-cbc,cast128-cbc, aes192-cbc,aes256-cbc,arcfour\nThe list of available ciphers may also be obtained using the\n-Qoption of secsh.\nSpecifies that all local, remote and dynamic port forwardings specified in the configuration files or on the command line be cleared. This option is primarily useful when used from the secsh command line to clear port forwardings set in configuration files, and is automatically set by scp and sftp. The argument must be yes or no. The default is no.\nSpecifies whether to use compression. The argument must be yes or no. The default is no.\nSpecifies the compression level to use if compression is enabled. The argument must be an integer from 1 (fast) to 9 (slow, best). The default level is 6, which is good for most applications. The meaning of the values is the same as in gzip Note that this option applies to protocol version 1 only.\nSpecifies the number of tries (one per second) to make before falling back to rsh or exiting. The argument must be an integer. This may be useful in scripts if the connection sometimes fails. The default is 1.\nSpecifies the timeout (in seconds) used when connecting to the SSH server, instead of using the default system TCP timeout. This value is used only when the target is down or really unreachable, not when it refuses the connection.\nEnables the sharing of multiple sessions over a single network connection. When set to yes, secsh will listen for connections on a control socket specified using the ControlPath argument. Additional sessions can connect to this socket using the same ControlPath with ControlMaster set to no (the default). These sessions will try to reuse the master instance's network connection rather than initiating new ones, but will fall back to connecting normally if the control socket does not exist, or is not listening.\nSetting this to ask will cause ssh to listen for control connections, but require confirmation using the SSH_ASKPASS program before they are accepted (see secsh-add for details). If the ControlPath cannot be opened, ssh will continue without connecting to a master instance.\nX11 and secsh-agent forwarding is supported over these multiplexed connections, however the display and agent forwarded will be the one belonging to the master connection i.e. it is not possible to forward multiple displays or agents.\nTwo additional options allow for opportunistic multiplexing: try to use a master connection but fall back to creating a new one if one does not already exist. These options are: auto and autoask. The latter requires confirmation like the ask option.\nSpecify the path to the control socket used for connection sharing as described in the ControlMaster section above or the string none to disable connection sharing. In the path, `%L' will be substituted by the first component of the local host name, `%l' will be substituted by the local host name (including any domain name), `%h' will be substituted by the target host name, `%n' will be substituted by the original target host name specified on the command line, `%p' the destination port, `%r' by the remote login username, `%u' by the username of the user running secsh, and `%C' by a hash of the concatenation `%l%h%p%r'. It is recommended that any ControlPath used for opportunistic connection sharing include at least %h, %p, and %r (or alternatively `%C'). This ensures that shared connections are uniquely identified.\nWhen used in conjunction with ControlMaster, specifies that the master connection should remain open in the background (waiting for future client connections) after the initial client connection has been closed. If set to no, then the master connection will not be placed into the background, and will close as soon as the initial client connection is closed. If set to yes, then the master connection will remain in the background indefinitely (until killed or closed via a mechanism such as the secsh -O exit option). If set to a time in seconds, or a time in any of the formats documented in secshd, then the backgrounded master connection will automatically terminate after it has remained idle (with no client connections) for the specified time.\nSpecifies that a TCP/IP port on the local machine be forwarded over the secure channel, and the application protocol is then used to determine where to connect to from the remote machine. The argument must be a port number. Currently the SOCKS4 protocol is supported, and ssh will act as a SOCKS4 server. Multiple forwardings may be specified, and additional forwardings can be given on the command line. Only the superuser can forward privileged ports.\nSetting this option to yes in the global client configuration enables the use of the helper program secsh-keysign during host-based authentication. The argument must be yes or no. The default is no. This option should be placed in the non-host-specific section. See the secsh-keysign reference page for more information.\nSets the escape character (default: ~). The escape character can also be set on the command line. The argument should be a single character, ^ followed by a letter, or none to disable the escape character entirely (making the connection transparent for binary data).\nSpecifies whether secsh should terminate the connection if it cannot set up all requested dynamic, tunnel, local, and remote port forwardings. The argument must be yes or no. The default is no.\nSpecifies whether the connection to the authentication agent (if any) will be forwarded to the remote machine. The argument must be yes or no. The default is no.\nSpecifies whether X11 connections will be automatically redirected over the secure channel and DISPLAY set. The argument must be yes or no. The default is no.\nSpecify a timeout for untrusted X11 forwarding using the format described in the TIME FORMATS section of secshd. X11 connections received by secsh after this time will be refused. The default is to disable untrusted X11 forwarding after twenty minutes has elapsed.\nWhen this option is set to yes, remote X11 clients have full access to the original X11 display.\nWhen this option is set to no, remote X11 clients are considered untrusted and prevented from stealing or tampering with data belonging to trusted X11 clients. Furthermore, the xauth token used for the session are set to expire after 20 minutes. Remote clients are refused access after this time.\nThe default is no.\nSee the X11 SECURITY extension specification for full details on the restrictions imposed on untrusted clients.\nSpecifies whether remote hosts are allowed to connect to local forwarded ports. By default, secsh binds local port forwardings to the loopback address. This prevents other remote hosts from connecting to forwarded ports. GatewayPorts can be used to specify that secsh should bind local port forwardings to the wildcard address, thus allowing remote hosts to connect to forwarded ports. The argument must be yes or no. The default is no.\nSpecifies a file to use for the host key database instead of $ROOTDIR/etc/ssh_known_hosts.\nSpecifies whether user authentication based on GSSAPI is allowed. The default is no. This option applies to protocol version 2 only.\nForwards (delegates) credentials to the server. The default is no. This option applies to protocol version 2 only.\nIndicates that secsh should hash host names and addresses when they are added to $USERPROFILE/.ssh/known_hosts. These hashed names may be used normally by secsh and secshd, but they do not reveal identifying information should the file's contents be disclosed. The default is no. Existing names and addresses in known hosts files are not converted automatically, but may be manually hashed using secsh-keygen.\nSpecifies whether to try rhosts based authentication with public key authentication. The argument must be yes or no. The default is yes. This option applies to protocol version 2 only and is similar to RhostsRSAAuthentication.\nSpecifies the protocol version 2 host key algorithms that the client wants to use in order of preference. The default for this option is:\nfirstname.lastname@example.org, email@example.com, firstname.lastname@example.org, email@example.com, firstname.lastname@example.org,email@example.com, firstname.lastname@example.org,email@example.com, ecdsa-sha2-nistp256,ecdsa-sha2-nistp384,ecdsa-sha2-nistp521, ssh-ed25519,ssh-rsa,ssh-dss\nSpecifies an alias that should be used instead of the real host name when looking up or saving the host key in the host key database files. This option is useful for tunneling ssh connections or if you have multiple servers running on a single host.\nSpecifies the real host name to log into. This can be used to specify nicknames or abbreviations for hosts. If the hostname contains the character sequence `%h', then this will be replaced with the host name specified on the command line (this is useful for manipulating unqualified names). The character sequence `%%' will be replaced by a single `%' character, which may be used when specifying IPv6 link-local addresses.\nDefault is the name given on the command line. Numeric IP addresses are also permitted (both on the command line and in HostName specifications).\nSpecifies that secsh should only use the authentication identity files configured in the secsh_configuration, even if secsh-agent offers more identities. The argument to this keyword must be yes or no. This option is intended for situations where secsh-agent offers many different identities. The default is no.\nSpecifies the IPv4 type-of-service or DSCP class for connections. Accepted values are af11, af12, af13, af21, af22, af23, af31, af32, af33, af41, af42, af43, cs0, cs1, cs2, cs3, cs4, cs5, cs6, cs7, ef, lowdelay, throughput, reliability, or a numeric value. This option may take one or two arguments, separated by whitespace. If one argument is specified, it is used as the packet class unconditionally. If two values are specified, the first is automatically selected for interactive sessions and the second for non-interactive sessions. The default is lowdelay for interactive sessions and throughput for non-interactive sessions.\nSpecifies the file from which the user's RSA, DSA, ECDSA, or ED25519 authentication identity is read (default $USERPROFILE/.ssh/identity in the user's profile directory for protocol version 1 and $USERPRFILE/.ssh/id_dsa, $USERPRFILE/.ssh/id_ecdsa, $USERPRFILE/.ssh/id_ed25519 and $USERPRFILE/.ssh/id_rsa for protocol version 2). Additionally, any identities represented by the authentication agent will be used for authentication unless IdentitiesOnly is set. secsh will try to load certificate information from the filename obtained by appending -cert.pub to the path of a specified IdentityFile.\nThe file name may use the tilde syntax to refer to a user's home directory or one of the following escape characters: %d (local user's home directory), %u (local user name), %l (local host name), %h (remote host name) or %r (remote user name).\nIt is possible to have multiple identity files specified in configuration files; all these identities will be tried in sequence. Multiple IdentityFile directives will add to the list of identities tried (this behaviour differs from that of other configuration directives).\nIdentityFile may be used in conjunction with IdentitiesOnly to select which identities in an agent are offered during authentication.\nSpecifies a pattern-list of unknown options to be ignored if they are encountered in configuration parsing. This may be used to suppress errors if the configuration contains options that are unrecognised by secsh.\nSpecifies wheter to use keyboard-interactive authentication. The argument to this keyword must be yes or no. The default is yes.\nSpecifies the list of methods to use in keyboard-interactive authentication. Multiple method names must be comma-separated. The default is to use the server specified list. The methods available vary depending on what the server supports. For an OpenSSH server, it may be zero or more of: bsdauth, pam, and skey.\nSpecifies the available KEX (Key Exchange) algorithms. Multiple algorithms must be comma-separated. The default is:\nfirstname.lastname@example.org, ecdh-sha2-nistp256,ecdh-sha2-nistp384,ecdh-sha2-nistp521, diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha256, diffie-hellman-group14-sha1, diffie-hellman-group-exchange-sha1, diffie-hellman-group1-sha1\nSpecifies a command to execute on the local machine after successfully connecting to the server. The command string extends to the end of the line, and is executed with the user's shell. The following escape character substitutions are performed: %d (local user's home directory), %h (remote host name), %l (local host name), %n (host name as provided on the command line), %p (remote port), %r (remote user name), %u (local user name), or %C by a hash of the concatenation %l%h%p%r.\nThe command is run synchronously and does not have access to the session of the secsh that spawned it. It should not be used for interactive commands.\nThis directive is ignored unless PermitLocalCommand has been enabled.\nSpecifies that a TCP/IP port on the local machine be forwarded over the secure channel to ths specified host and post from the remote machine. The first argument must be a port number, and the second must be host:port. Multiple forwardings may be specified, and additional forwardings can be given on the command line. Only the superuser can forward privileged ports.\nGives the verbosity level that is used when logging messages from secsh. The possible values are: QUIET, FATAL, ERROR, INFO, VERBOSE and DEBUG. The default is INFO.\nSpecifies the MAC (message authentication code) algorithms in order of preference. The MAC algorithm is used in protocol version 2 for data integrity protection. Multiple algorithms must be comma-separated. The default is\nemail@example.com,firstname.lastname@example.org, email@example.com,firstname.lastname@example.org, email@example.com,firstname.lastname@example.org, hmac-sha2-256,hmac-sha2-512, email@example.com,firstname.lastname@example.org, email@example.com, firstname.lastname@example.org,email@example.com, hmac-md5,hmac-sha1,hmac-ripemd160, hmac-sha1-96,hmac-md5-96\nThis option can be used if the home directory is shared across machines. In this case localhost will refer to a different machine on each of the machines and the user will get many warnings about changed host keys. However, this option disables host authentication for localhost. The argument to this keyword must be yes or no. The default is to check the host key for localhost.\nSpecifies the number of password prompts before giving up. The argument to this keyword must be an integer. Default is 3.\nSpecifies whether to use password authentication. The argument to this keyword must be yes or no. The default is yes.\nAllows local command execution via the LocalCommand option or using the !command sequence in secsh. The argument must be yes or no. The default is no.\nSpecifies the port number to connect on the remote host. Default is 22.\nSpecifies the order in which the client should try protocol 2 authentication methods. This allows a client to prefer one method (for example keyboard-interactive) over another method (for example password) The default for this option is: hostbased,publickey,password,keyboard-interactive\nSpecifies the protocol versions secsh should support in order of preference. The possible values are 1 and 2. Multiple versions must be comma-separated. The default is 2,1. This means that secsh tries version 2 and falls back to version 1 if version 2 is not available. The default is 2.\nSpecifies the command to use to connect to the server. The command string extends to the end of the line, and is executed using the user's shell exec directive to avoid a lingering shell process.\nIn the command string, %h will be substituted by the host name to connect and %p by the port, and %r by the remote user name. The command can be basically anything, and should read from its standard input and write to its standard output. It should eventually connect an secshd server running on some machine, or execute sshd -i somewhere. Host key management will be done using the HostName of the host being connected (defaulting to the name typed by the user). Note that CheckHostIP is not available for connects with a proxy command.\nSpecifies that ProxyCommand will pass a connected file descriptor back to secsh instead of continuing to execute and pass data. The default is no.\nSpecifies whether to try public key authentication. The argument to this keyword must be yes or no. The default is yes. This option applies to protocol version 2 only.\nSpecifies the maximum amount of data that may be transmitted before the session key is renegotiated, optionally followed a maximum amount of ! time that may pass before the session key is renegotiated. The first argument is the number of bytes, with an optional suffix of K, M, or G to indicated Kilobyes, Megabytes, or Gigabytes, respectively. The default is between 1G and 4G, depending on the cipher. The optional second value is specified in seconds and may use any of the units documented in the TIME FORMATS section of secshd. The default value for RekeyLimit is default none, which means that rekeying is performed after the cipher's default amount of data has been sent or received and no time based rekeying is done. This option applies to protocol version 2 only.\nSpecifies that a TCP/IP port on the remote machine be forwarded over the secure channel to the specified host and port from the local machine. The first argument must be a port number, and the second must be host:port. IPv6 addresses can be specified with an alternative syntax: host/port. Multiple forwardings may be specified, and additional forwardings can be given on the command line. Only the superuser can forward privileged ports.\nSpecifies whether to request a pseudo-tty for the session. The argument may be one of: no (never request a TTY), yes (always request a TTY when standard input is a TTY), force (always request a TTY) or auto (request a TTY when opening a login session). This option mirrors the\n-tand -Tflags for secsh.\nSpecifies whether to try rhosts based authentication with RSA host authentication. The argument must be yes or no. The default is yes. This option applies to protocol version 1 only.\nSpecifies whether to try RSA authentication. The argument to this keyword must be yes or no. RSA authentication will only be attempted if the identity file exists, or an authentication agent is running. The default is yes. Note that this option applies to protocol version 1 only.\nSpecifies what variables from the local environment should be sent to the server. Environment passing is only supported for protocol 2. The server must also support it, and the server must be configured to accept these environment variables. Refer to AcceptEnv in secshd for how to configure the server. Variables are specified by name, which may contain wildcard characters. Multiple environment variables may be separated by whitespace or spread across multiple SendEnv directives. The default is not to send any environment variables.\nSets the number of server alive messages (see below) which may be sent without secsh receiving any messages back from the server. When this threshold is reached while server alive messages are being sent, secsh disconnects from the server, terminating the session. The use of server alive messages is very different from TCPKeepAlive (below). The server alive messages are sent through the encrypted channel and therefore are not spoofable. The TCP keepalive option enabled by TCPKeepAlive is spoofable. The server alive mechanism is valuable when the client or server depend on knowing when a connection has become inactive. The default value is 3. If, for example, ServerAliveInterval (see below) is set to 15 and ServerAliveCountMax is left at the default, and the server becomes unresponsive, secsh disconnects after approximately 45 seconds. This option applies to protocol version 2 only.\nSets a timeout interval in seconds after which if no data has been received from the server, secsh sends a message through the encrypted channel to request a response from the server. The default is 0, inidicating that these messages are not sent to the server. This option applies to protocol version 2 only.\nSpecifies which smartcard device to use. The argument to this keyword is the device secsh should use to communicate with a smartcard used for storing the user's private RSA key. By default, no device is specified and smartcard support is not activated.\nSets the octal file creation mode mask (umask) used when creating a Unix-domain socket file for local or remote port forwarding. This option is only used for port forwarding to a Unix-domain socket file.\nThe default value is 0177, which creates a Unix-domain socket file that is readable and writable only by the owner. Note that not all operating systems honor the file mode on Unix-domain socket files.\nSpecifies whether to remove an existing Unix-domain socket file for local or remote port forwarding before creating a new one. If the socket file already exists and StreamLocalBindUnlink is not enabled, ssh will be unable to forward the port to the Unix- domain socket file. This option is only used for port forwarding to a Unix-domain socket file.\nThe argument must be yes or no. The default is no.\nIf this flag is set to yes, secsh will never automatically add host keys to the $USERPROFILE/.ssh/known_hosts and $USERPROFILE/.ssh/known_hosts2 files, and refuses to connect to hosts whose host key has changed. This provides maximum protection against trojan horse attacks. However, it can be somewhat annoying if you don't have good $ROOTDIR/etc/ssh_known_hosts and $ROOTDIR/etc/ssh_known_hosts2 files installed and frequently connect to new hosts. This option forces the user to manually add all new hosts. If this flag is set to no, secsh will automatically add new host keys to the user known hosts files. If this flag is set to ask, new host keys will be added to the user known host files only after the user has confirmed that is what they really want to do, and secsh will refuse to connect to hosts whose host key has changed. The host keys of known hosts will be verified automatically in all cases. The argument must be yes, no, or ask. The default is ask.\nSpecifies whether the system should send TCP keepalive messages to the other side. If they are sent, death of the connection or crash of one of the machines will be properly noticed. However, this means that connections die if the route is down temporarily, and some people find it annoying.\nThe default is yes (to send TCP keepalive messages), and the client notices if the network goes down or the remote host dies. This is important in scripts and many users want it too.\nTo disable TCP keepalive messages, the value should be set to no.\nSpecifies whether to use a privileged port for outgoing connections. The argument must be yes or no. The default is no. Note that you need to set this option to yes if you want to use RhostsAuthentication and RhostsRSAAuthentication with older servers.\nSpecifies the user to log in as. This can be useful when you have a different user name on different machines. This saves the trouble of having to remember to give the user name on the command line.\nSpecifies a file to use for the user host key database instead of $USERPROFILE/.ssh/known_hosts.\nSpecifies whether to verify the remote key using DNS and SSHFP resource records. When this option is set to yes, the client implicitly trusts keys that match a secure fingerprint from DNS. Insecure fingerprints are handled as if this option was set to ask. When this option is set to ask, information on fingerprint matches is displayed, but the user stills need to confirm new host keys according to the StrictHostKeyChecking option. The argument must be yes, no, or ask. The default is no. This option applies to protocol version 2 only.\nWhen this flag is set to yes, an ASCII art representation of the remote host key fingerprint is printed in addition to the hex fingerprint string at login and for unknown host keys. If this flag is set to no, no fingerprint strings are printed at login and only the hex fingerprint string are printed for unknown host keys. The default is no.\nSpecifies the location of the xauth program. The default is /usr/X11R6/bin/xauth.\nsecsh will normally set the following environment variables:\nThe DISPLAY variable indicates the location of the X11 server. It is automatically set by secsh to point to a value of the form hostname:n where hostname indicates the host where the shell runs, and n is an integer >= 1. secsh uses this special value to forward X11 connections over the secure channel. The user should normally not set DISPLAY explicitly, as that will render the X11 connection insecure (and will require the user to manually copy any required authorization cookies).\nIs set to the path of the user's home directory.\nIs a synonym for USER; is set for compatibility with systems that use this variable.\nIs set to the path of the user's mailbox.\nIs set to the default PATH, as specified when compiling secsh.\nIf secsh needs a passphrase, it reads the passphrase from the current terminal if it was run from a terminal.

These files contain sensitive data and should be readable by the user but not accessible by others (read/write/execute). secsh will simply ignore a private key file if it is accessible by others. It is possible to specify a passphrase when generating the key which will be used to encrypt the sensitive part of this file using 3DES.\nContains the public key for authentication (public part of the identity file in human-readable form). The contents of the $USERPROFILE/.ssh/identity.pub file should be added to ~/.ssh/authorized_keys on all machines where you wish to log in using protocol version 1 RSA authentication. The contents of the $USERPROFILE/.ssh/id_dsa.pub, $USERPROFILE/.ssh/id_ecdsa.pub, $USERPROFILE/.ssh/id_ed25519.pub, and $USERPROFILE/.ssh/id_rsa.pub file should be added to ~/.ssh/authorized_keys on all machines where the user wishes to log in using protocol version 2 DSA/RSA authentication.

These files are never used automatically and are not necessary; they are only provided for the convenience of the user.\nLists the public keys (RSA/DSA/ECDSA/ED25519) that can be used for logging in as this user. The format of this file is described in the secshd reference page. In the simplest form the format is the same as the .pub identity files (that is, each line contains the number of bits in modulus, public exponent, modulus, and comment fields, separated by spaces). This file is not highly sensitive, but the recommended permissions are read/write for the user, and not writable by others.\nSystemwide list of known host keys. This file should be prepared by the system administrator to contain the public host keys of all machines in the organization. This file should be world-readable. This file contains public keys, one per line, in the following format (fields separated by spaces): system name, public key, and optional comment field. When different names are used for the same machine, all such names should be listed, separated by commas. The format is described on the secshd reference page.\nThe canonical system name (as returned by name servers) is used by secshd to verify the client host when logging in; other names are needed because secsh does not convert the user-supplied name to a canonical name before checking the key, because someone with access to the name servers would then be able to fool host authentication.\n- HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/Mortice Kern Systems/etc/ssh_config\nSystem-wide configuration. This provides defaults for those values that are not specified in the user's configuration file, and for those users who do not have a configuration file. The values here are normally configured from the PTC MKS Toolkit control panel applet.\nThese files contain the private parts of the host keys and are used for RhostsRSAAuthentication and HostbasedAuthentication. Since they are readable only by root, secsh must be setuid root if these authentication methods are desired.\nThis file is used in .rhosts authentication to list the host/user pairs that are permitted to log in. (Note that this file is also used by rlogin and rsh, which makes using this file insecure.) Each line of the file contains a host name (in the canonical form returned by name servers), and then a user name on that host, separated by a space. On some machines this file may need to be world-readable if the user's home directory is on a NFS partition, because secshd reads it as root. Additionally, this file must be owned by the user, and must not have write permissions for anyone else. The recommended permission for most machines is read/write for the user, and not accessible by others.\nNote that by default secshd will be installed so that it requires successful RSA host authentication before permitting .rhosts authentication. If the server machine does not have the client's host key in $ROOTDIR/etc/ssh_known_hosts, you can store it in ~/.ssh/known_hosts. The easiest way to do this is to connect back to the client from the server machine using secsh; this will automatically add the host key to $USERPROFILE/.ssh/known_hosts.\nThis file is used during .rhosts authentication. It contains canonical hosts names, one per line (the full format is described on the secshd reference page). If the client host is found in this file, login is automatically permitted provided client and server user names are the same. Additionally, successful RSA host authentication is normally required. This file should only be writable by root.\nCommands in this file are executed by secsh when the user logs in just before the user's shell (or command) is started.

This is done because the ~/ directory might not be available for the case of a domain machine that cannot contact a domain controller. Note that the secure shell service continues to use the ~/.ssh directory to store configuration files. In particular, note that there are effectively two known_hosts files: one under $USERPROFILE/.ssh/known_hosts, and a second one under ~/.ssh/known_hosts. There is no guarantee that the directory to which the USERPROFILE environment variable points is on an NTFS partition, and thus there is no guarantee that the keys in this location can be properly secured.\nUsing the secure shell client in a console window where the screen buffer width is larger than the window (that is, the console window has a horizontal scrollbar) does not work well. It is recommended that the secure shell client be used from console windows where these two widths are the same.

{"text": "chromosome (krōˈməsōmˌ) [key], structural carrier of hereditary characteristics, found in the nucleus of every cell and so named for its readiness to absorb dyes. The term chromosome is usually reserved for the structure when it is condensed and readily visible during cell division (see mitosis). At other times the chromosome appears as a fibrous structure, called the chromonema, consisting of accumulations (called chromomeres) of chromatin, the dye-absorbing material. During nuclear division, when each chromosome splits, each of the duplicate chromosomes is called a chromatid. A certain number of chromosomes is characteristic of each species of plant and animal; e.g., the human has 46 chromosomes, the potato has 48, and the fruit fly Drosophila has 8. Each of these chromosome numbers is the so-called diploid number, i.e., the number found in the somatic (body) cells and in the germ cells that give rise to the gametes, or reproductive cells. When the germ cells divide in the two-step process of meiosis, the chromosomes are separated in such a way that each daughter cell receives a haploid (half the diploid) number of chromosomes. Fusion of the male and female gametes in fertilization restores the diploid number in the fertilized egg, or zygote, which thus contains two sets of homologous chromosomes, one from each parent. The principal constituents of the chromosomes are nucleoproteins containing deoxyribonucleic acid, or DNA (see nucleic acid). Chromosomes appear microscopically as a linear arrangement of genes, the factors that determine the inherited characteristics of all living organisms. The very large chromosomes in the salivary gland cells of Drosophila and other insects have furnished valuable material for the study of genetics.\nThe Columbia Electronic Encyclopedia, 6th ed.

They maintained a rapid pace of industrial improvement additionally within the second half of the 20 th century, however, the colonies were gradually lost. In the first half of the century, after 1917, some international locations such because the USSR and the People`s Republic of China with a very completely different financial mannequin have been additionally established. They additionally underwent industrialization, nonetheless, they had a centrally deliberate economy and their dominant and only official ideology was communistic. After the World War II a range of USSR`s satellite international locations joined this method which officially had been known as “socialistic republics” or “folks`s republics”.\nLearn more about education in Latvia:\nBy 1945, Latvia was as soon as once more beneath total Soviet occupation and pre-warfare Soviet rule was reinstated. By the late 1100s, Latvia was increasingly visited by traders from western Europe who used Latvia’s longest river, the Daugava, as a commerce path to Russia. At the shut of the twelfth century, German traders arrived, bringing with them missionaries who tried to convert the pagan Baltic and Finno-Ugrian tribes to the Christian religion. Out of loyalty to their historical pantheistic beliefs, the Balts resisted the imposition of a international religion, particularly the ritual of christening. When information of this reached the Pope in Rome, he ordered a army Crusade against the Baltic peoples.\nThe Roman creator Tacitus remarked upon the “Aestii” peoples, thought to be inhabitants of the trendy Baltic lands, suggesting that they had been abound with formidable, yet peaceable and hospitable folks. The Latvian peoples remained comparatively undisturbed until Papal intervention via the Germanic, Teutonic Order colonized Kurzeme (Courland in English, Kurland in German), starting in the latvian women first half of the 13th century. Papal decrees ordered the Teutonic Order to unfold the “Word of the Lord” and the Gospel of Christianity all through “uncivilized”, “Pagan lands”. Though these attempts to Christianize the population failed, and the Teutonic Order ultimately redeployed southward, to the area of what was as soon as known as East Prussia.\nAs a part of the independence course of in the early Nineties, Latvia (as well as Estonia) introduced language laws to guard the language from extinction. It belongs to the Indo-European family of languages, and shares a distinct trait with Lithuanian dialect, within the sense that additionally it is non-Slavic and non-Germanic. Due to its previous association with the Soviet era, Russian is the most-extensively used minority language. The concept of an independent Latvia became a reality firstly of the 1900s. As the First World War spread to Latvian territory and instantly engaged the entire Latvian population, a strong professional-independence motion developed.\nMeinhard, a monk from Holstein, landed there in 1180 and was named bishop of Üxküll (Ikskile) in 1186. The third bishop, Albert of Buxhoevden, with Pope Innocent III’s permission, founded the Order of the Brothers of the Sword in 1202. Before they merged in 1237 with the Knights of the Teutonic Order, they’d conquered all of the Latvian tribal kingdoms. Latvian is one of two extant Baltic languages, a gaggle of its personal within the household of Indo-European languages.\nMore than hundred and forty thousand took refuge from the Soviet army by fleeing to the West. On March 25, 1949, greater than forty thousand rural residents had been deported to Siberia in a sweeping repressive motion. An in depth Russification campaign started in Latvia and many administrative obstacles were created to hinder using the Latvian language. Latvia’s longstanding strategic importance to the USSR was underlined with the signing of the so-referred to as ‘Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact’ on August 23, 1939.\nIn Europe, they’re burning witches once more\nThirty-five thousand individuals suffered Soviet repression within the first yr of Soviet occupation. At the beginning of the 1700s, the Great Northern War broke out, largely on account of the Russian Empire’s want to expand its territorial claims to the strategically important lands of Latvia.\nLatvia nonetheless among poorest in EU\nIn the primary 12 months of Soviet occupation about 35,000 Latvians, particularly the intelligentsia, were deported to Russia. The multiplicity of parties within the Saeima (22 in 1922 and 24 in 1931) made it inconceivable to type a steady authorities; and in 1934 Ulmanis, prime minister for the fourth time since 1918, proposed a constitutional reform. This was angrily opposed by the Social Democrats, the communists, and the nationwide minorities.\nBut Liepaja was nonetheless occupied by German troops, who the Allies wished to defend East Prussia and Courland (Kurzeme) in opposition to the advancing Red Army. Their commander, General Rüdiger von der Goltz, intended to construct a German-controlled Latvia and to make it a German base of operation in the struggle against the Soviets.\nOnly Latgale remained in Red arms; but this province was quickly thereafter cleared of Red troops. After the conquest, the Germans fashioned a so-known as Livonian confederation, which lasted for greater than three centuries.

{"text": "And when Jesus entered Capernaum, a centurion came to Him, imploring Him, and saying, \"Lord, my servant is lying paralyzed at home, fearfully tormented.\" Jesus said to him, \"I will come and heal him.\" But the centurion said, \"Lord, I am not worthy for You to come under my roof, but just say the word, and my servant will be healed. For I also am a man under authority, with soldiers under me; and I say to this one, 'Go!' and he goes, and to another, 'Come!' and he comes, and to my slave, 'Do this!' and he does it.\"Those who read this passage may immediately be wondering, So...where is homosexuality in all of that? The key in the argument is the original Greek of verse 6:\nNow when Jesus heard this, He marveled and said to those who were following, \"Truly I say to you, I have not found such great faith with anyone in Israel. I say to you that many will come from east and west, and recline at the table with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven; but the sons of the kingdom will be cast out into the outer darkness; in that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.\" And Jesus said to the centurion, \"Go; it shall be done for you as you have believed.\" And the servant was healed that very moment. [Matthew 8:5-13; NASB]\nκαὶ λέγων κύριε ὁ παῖς μου βέβληται έν τῇ οἰκίᾳ παραλυτικός δεινῶς βασανιζόμενοςThe centurion refers to his \"servant\" with ὁ παῖς (shown in bold). The argument is that the Greek word refers to a homosexual lover. To quote one presentation on this argument:\nIn the most common English translations, we read this passage and have no idea the context of this encounter between the Roman centurion and Jesus. The key word is \"pais\", which is often translated as \"servant\" or \"boy\". However, most scholars believe that the term pais in the ancient world was a well-known idiom referring to a male concubine (often younger) and an explicitly homosexual relationship.Let's review the problems with this argument in two parts...\nKenneth J. Dover, noted authority on ancient Greece, in his book, Greek Homosexuality, tells us the younger partner in a homosexual relationship is called pais or paidika.\nDr. Robert Gagnon, arguably the foremost anti-gay scholar of our day, writes that pais can refer to a partner in a homosexual relationship. He writes:\n“boy” (pais) could be used of any junior partner in a homosexual relationship, even one who was fullgrown.” Dr. Robert Gagnon (The Bible And Homosexual Practice, p. 163, footnote 6.)\nIn fact, the overwhelming historical evidence (and perhaps, the implication of Luke 7:2, which literally translates as \"had much love for\") is that the Centurion and his \"pais\" were likely involved in a homosexual relationship that was very common in the ancient world. It is worth noting that this kind of relationship is one that today, we would almost universally condemn since it was between and older man and a young pubescent boy. However, these relationships were very common. [source]\n1) The Lexical Game\nThe \"lexical game\" is what I refer to when a person takes the various definitions of a word, finds the one they like best, and essentially ignores the context or use of the word in the individual passage. While παῖς is indeed the word used here in Matthew's account of the faithful centurion, it is not the only time the word is used in the Gospels. Some other times the exact form of παῖς is found:\n- In Matthew 12:38, in reference to Christ\n- In Matthew 17:18, in reference to the young man whom Christ expelled a mute demon from for the boy's father\n- In Luke 2:43, in which it talks of \"the boy Jesus\" staying behind in Jerusalem\n- In Luke 8:54, in reference to the young girl whom Christ raises from the dead\n- In John 4:51, in reference to the nobleman's child rising at Christ's command\nDoes the word even mean a \"young homosexual lover\"? I'm sure in some parts of ancient Greece it might have been written to refer to such a person, but the question is whether or not it could be understood here. Some comments from various concordances and lexicons regarding the word:\nchild, maiden, servant, young man. - Perhaps from paio; a boy (as often beaten with impunity), or (by analogy), a girl, and (genitive case) a child; specially, a slave or servant (especially a minister to a king; and by eminence to God) -- child, maid(-en), (man) servant, son, young man. [Strong's Exhaustive Concordance]As we can see, most basic Biblical sources point to it referring to a young man or \"boy.\" John Gill and A.T. Robertson likewise say that the word παῖς is used here in reference simply to a youth, with no sexual connotations.\nDefinition - a child, boy, youth [NAS Exhaustive Concordance]\nDefinition: (a) a male child, boy, (b) a male slave, servant; thus: a servant of God, especially as a title of the Messiah, (c) a female child, girl. [biblos.com]\nThe Greek term here is παῖς (pais), often used of a slave who was regarded with some degree of affection, possibly a personal servant... [from the NET notes on Matthew 8:6]\n2) Does Luke 7:2 mean anything?\nThe author of the quoted article states that there is \"implication\" in Luke 7:2, as it says the Centurion \"had much love for\" his παῖς. However, this is just one translation - in fact, I couldn't find a translation that bore those exact words. The closest translation that comes to it is the KJV with \"who was dear unto him.\"\nThe Greek word used in Luke 7:2 which the author translates as \"have much love for\" is actually ἔντιμος, which means \"to regard or value highly.\" Many translations - such as the NASB, NIV, NRSV and ESV - translate the word in Luke 7:2 in such a manner. Various cases of the word are used across the New Testament, including 1 Peter 2:4 and 6, Luke 14:8, and Philippians 2:29. A quick examination of the context of all these passages will show that it does not refer to the kind of eros love which the article's author is trying to promote. When the passage says that the Centurion had much ἔντιμος for his servant, it meant that the Centurion had much respect and care for those who worked under him - not that the Centurion had any kind of sexual interest in him.\nOne notable factor about Luke 7:2 that those who make the παῖς argument seem to miss is that Luke has the Centurion refer to the boy as δοῦλος. He then uses παῖς in verse 7 in reference to the same person. What does this mean? That δοῦλος and παῖς are being used interchangeably (as some Greek words often are), and therefore the true context of παῖς is a young male servant...not a young homosexual concubine.\nAll in all, there are no homosexual connotations in this passage. Anyone who argues so is either playing lexical games or reading too much into the text.", "label": "No"}

{"text": "We need to look at the volatility of any investment and understand what factors influence it. When investing in the stock market or other financial instruments, the volatility must be calculated and predicted. How to predict market volatility?\nThe more volatile a market is, the riskier it will be to invest in it and the less predictable. Some strategies work well in volatile markets, while others are useless.\nThere are a lot of factors that affect an instrument’s volatility. In this article, we’ll look at the most important ones.\nEven when you buy a real asset like a house, you should evaluate how volatile the investment is.\nRelated article: Inflation and real estate: should you buy a home?\nLiquidity affects volatility\nThe biggest thing that affects a financial instrument’s volatility is its liquidity. The general rule is that the more liquid an asset, the less volatile it is.\nThere will be times when some very liquid instruments become highly volatile. But most of the time, very liquid stocks tend to be more stable and move slower. We’ll look at other factors that can cause violent movements later.\nWhen an instrument is liquid, big investors buy and sell, so supply and demand are balanced. Stocks such as bluechip stocks have a lot of trading throughout the day.\nRelated article: Small-cap stocks vs. blue-chip: two different approaches\nBlue-chip stocks have a very high capitalization compared to so-called small-cap stocks. Banks, hedge funds, brokers, and big traders will be interested in buying and selling blue chips every day.\nA heavily capitalized stock is more liquid and less volatile. Apple or Microsoft are examples of large capitalized stocks, and you can find these in thousands of other financial products like ETFs or investment funds.\nLiquidity affects the spread between the bid and ask\nA large blue-chip sell order from a broker will undoubtedly find a counterparty and not cause the price to move quickly.\nLet’s take a simple example. A trader placed a large sell order at $ 100, but the stock was barely traded, and there were only a few buy orders at $ 90.\nA large spread between the bid and ask has just been created in the stock book. If the trader needs to sell, he’ll have to lower the selling price to $ 90, where the few interested buyers are. In this way, the share will rapidly drop by $10 in a few seconds, losing 10% of its value.\nThis is an example of pure fantasy, but it serves to understand why low liquidity makes prices move quickly.\nBy analyzing the stock’s book, you can predict the volatility. When a stock has a lot of big orders at different price levels, it usually trades slowly. The market will absorb each order; it will be liquid and stable.\nSome news can create a lot of volatility.\nSince liquidity and capitalization are the most important factors, other elements influence volatility.\nEvery day there are news and analyses about the stock market or a particular company. Some of this news has no impact; it serves only to entertain the public. But some of them are real market movers.\nGlobal news that influences volatility\nSome news can make a national or even global stock market move massively. A natural disaster, a diplomatic incident that can lead to a world war, a pandemic are just a few examples.\nThe more sudden and unexpected the news is, the more violently the stock market will react and the greater the volatility. In finance, the terrible news is called “black swan”.\nSome black swans are sudden, like the earthquake and tsunami in Japan in 2011. Other news is more predictable, as the generalized lockdowns in the covid emergency. Bad news creates more volatility as markets tend to drop very quickly and then rise slowly.\nAfter the news, the stock market will try to settle down and absorb the loss or continue in its direction. The tsunami in Japan will have a different impact than Covid. The more unpredictable the effects of an event are, the longer the period of high volatility.\nRelated article: Thoughts on COVID-19 Global Financial Management\nSay there’s a natural disaster, and we can figure out how it’ll affect the economy and the stock market. Stock prices will fall, and they’ll keep falling until they get to a point where the price will balance out and settle down.\nIf an event has multiple implications and no one can predict what will happen, it’ll be a different story. We will see rapid declines and then equally rapid rises over long periods. Each new piece of information will lead the market to rise or fall, creating uncertainty and, therefore, volatility.\nCentral banks’ monetary policies and volatility\nNews that could increase volatility relates to the choices on monetary policies by large central banks such as the Fed or the ECB.\nAnalysts usually do their homework before announcing anything, so it’s rare to see any real surprises. But sometimes, the market can get nervous about specific things. Investment banks often use these movements to take advantage of large sell and buy orders, artificially creating volatility.\nEarnings and volatility\nAmerican stocks report earnings every quarter, and the news is highly anticipated. Again, earnings are preceded by hundreds of financial analyst forecasts and analyses. The rule is that the more earnings deviate from analysts’ forecasts, the more volatility is likely to be created.\nSome stocks always react nervously to their earnings, so we can easily predict their volatility and trade with options. In addition to earnings, any news can come out on equities and increase volatility.\nAgain, the more surprising the news, the more volatility it will create. Furthermore, the smaller the share, the more its price will be influenced by news.", "label": "No"}
{"text": "Skinner was the great Universalist social prophet of the twentieth century. He was born in Brooklyn, New York on March 23, 1881. He grew up in a family of actors and theater people. His father, who was a reporter, also wrote plays and was a drama critic. Young Clarence took part in plays at Erasmus Hall High School, and also at St. Lawrence University, where he started in the fall of 1900. Skinner was also active in the Universalist Church in Canton, New York, where his classmate Clara Ayres played the organ. After they graduated in 1904, Skinner was leaning towards the ministry as a career, and he went to work at the Universalist Church of the Divine Paternity in New York. He was in charge of the Sunday School and youth programs. He also attended programs at the University Settlement, and eventually taught classes there in current events. Skinner was ordained in New York on April 8, 1906, and accepted a call that summer to the Universalist Church in Mt. Vernon, New York. That fall he and Clara were married.\nSkinner’s ministry in Mt. Vernon was a success, as a building was erected, and the church school prospered. He continued to be involved in the University Settlement, and also finished an M.A. from St. Lawrence. Soon thereafter John Haynes Holmes was settled in New York, and he and Skinner became friends. They agreed that the church must broaden its orientation toward reforming all of society. At this time congregations were taught about many of the social injustices of the day, and public forums became popular. Christians across the country were applying Christ’s teachings to the social problems of the day calling it the Social Gospel. This reform impulse was spearheaded in the Universalist denomination by Skinner. In 1910 Skinner helped form the Universalist Social Service Commission, and served as secretary for six years. The following year he left Mt. Vernon to accept a call to Grace Universalist Church in Lowell, Massachusetts. Here, in a community where the industrial revolution had started, Skinner had more first hand experience in dealing with social problems. He tried to bring labor and management together for discussions and sponsored many forums. He was also named president of the Massachusetts Universalist Sunday School Association. Then in 1914 he was appointed to the new position of Professor of Applied Christianity at Crane Theological School at Tufts. This was the beginning of a long relationship with Tufts. Although some were concerned about Skinner’s social radicalism, he was a popular teacher with the students. After he was there for only a year, his major work on The Social Implications of Universalism, was published (1915). Here Skinner wrote, “The true social objective is the perfecting of human character by the progressive improvement of those conditions and environments which are within the social control.” (Skinner, Social Implications, p. 33)\nIn 1917 the denomination approved a Declaration of Social Principles that Skinner had written. That year was a difficult one for Skinner, as his stand against World War I and his avowed pacifism was unpopular with much of the campus. After the war he once again joined forces with Holmes, when together they formed a Community Church of Boston, similar to Holmes’s venture in New York. Both believed that the church must move beyond sectarian boundaries, and serve the broader community with a ministry that addresses social problems in the world. Organized in 1920, Skinner remained there for seventeen years as leader.\nDuring the 1920’s Skinner was especially active in the defense of Sacco and Vanzetti, who he felt were unjustly convicted of murder based on their political radicalism. In 1929 Skinner was made vice-dean of Crane, and then Dean Lee McColllester resigned three years later. There was some opposition to Skinner taking the position, but finally he received the appointment. He continued to teach during his term of twelve years as dean. The school also continued to grow and improve academically. After the stresses of World War II, and ill health, Skinner decided to resign from his position. He died four years later on August 26, 1949. After his death many of his ideas on worship and spirituality were gathered from previously unpublished material in Worship and the Well-Ordered Life (1955). His teaching and writing in addition to his concern for social justice, also contained a vision for a new Universalism as a religion of universals transcending all particulars, and some of this was articulated in Religion for Greatness (1945). Like his famed nineteenth century predecessor Hosea Ballou, Skinner saw salvation as only possible when the entire world is saved, and not isolated individuals.", "label": "No"}

{"text": "Today, we celebrate St. Patrick’s Day. It’s fun to wear green and color shamrocks, but do you know much about St Patrick, the man? I bet not, so here is the real story of who he was and why we have a holiday named after him.\nMany, many years ago, there was a young boy named Patrick who lived in the country of Wales. His parents took Patrick to church and tried to bring him up to love God and be a good person. One day though while Patrick was outside, he saw some bad men come into their town. They were mean and cruel, and that night they set fires to some of the town’s people’s homes. But even worse, these were Irish pirates, and they kidnapped some of the people in the town and took them to Ireland as slaves. Patrick was one of them.\nCan you imagine what it was like for Patrick to be taken away at the age of 16 from his parents, family, community and become a slave? Patrick was sold to an Irish king. He had to work in the pasture tending sheep for no pay and very little food. Patrick prayed to God for help. One day, Patrick heard God’s voice in his head, and God told him to just walk off from where was, go to the town, get on a ship, and sail back to his homeland. Patrick wasn’t sure about this, but he decided he had better do what God said, so he just left the field of sheep, found a ship sailing to Wales, got on it, and with no problem was soon back home. Patrick had been a slave for six years.\nHe decided that he wanted to become a Priest, so he studied hard and committed himself to God. Then do you know what God told him to do? God told Patrick to go back to Ireland and preach the good news of Jesus to those people that were so mean to him. God gave Patrick the courage to return and forgive those people, and even though he was almost killed several times, God always kept Patrick safe. Because of Patrick’s work and preaching in Ireland, slavery was ended there, and Christianity spread across the whole country. Patrick lived to be a very old man. He lived to see Ireland transformed by God’s message of love and forgiveness. After his death, Patrick was honored for his work by becoming St. Patrick, and that is why we celebrate St. Patrick’s Day even now.\nGod saw and heard Patrick in his darkest times just like He sees and hears us when we are sad, scared, or feel helpless. God answered Patrick’s prayers, and Patrick had the courage to do what God told him to do. God blessed him for that. Remember to ask God for His help and not be afraid to do what He says. God will never leave or forsake you and will bless you too for doing His will.\nLet’s say a prayer. Dear Heavenly Father, thank You for giving us the example of St. Patrick. Through Your direction and his courage, many people were brought to believe in You. Help us to be like St. Patrick and ask for Your help and direction when we need it as well. In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen.\nAnn Moody is pastor of Wilkesville First Presbyterian Church.", "label": "No"}
{"text": "Drug debacle- Diclofenac was not the last threat for India’s vultures\nSixteen years after India banned the veterinary use of diclofenac to save its vultures, three other drugs revive the old challenge\nOn March 14, the Bombay Natural History Society (BNHS), India’s oldest biodiversity conservation group, wrote a letter urging the Union Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change (MoEF&CC) to ban the use of three veterinary drugs known to kill vultures in the country.\nThe letter warns that the rampant use of the three non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS) threatens to undo the Centre’s two decades of work to arrest the dwindling vulture population in the wild. Surprisingly, the three drugs—aeclofenac, ketoprofen and nimesulide—were introduced as alternatives to diclofenac, the NSAID that India banned in 2006 for animal use because it caused widespread vulture deaths.\n‘Deaths caused by NSAIDS are invisible. Birds die two-three days after ingesting the medicine, making it difficult to establish a clear link,’ says Chris Bowden, co-chair, Vulture Specialist Group at the International Union for Conservation of Nature. He says India has slowed down vulture mortality rate, but not stabilised the population.\nVultures were quite common till the 1980s. Currently, eight species in the country face extinction, says Rinkita Gurav, manager, raptor conservation, World Wide Fund for Nature, India. The country’s vulture population crashed from over 40,000 in 2003 to 18,645 in 2015, as per the last vulture census conducted by intergovernmental body Bird Life International.\nEven diclofenac, which is only permitted for human use, is being misused for cattle treatments. ‘Such treatments are usually prescribed by quacks,’ says Vibhu Prakash, deputy director, Bombay Natural History Society (BNHS).\n‘You do not need a prescription to get your hands on diclofenac or any other NSAIDS here,’ says Dau Lal Bohra, wildlife researcher and head of department, zoology, Seth Gyaniram Bansidhar Podar College in Rajashtan’s Jhunjhunu district.\nIn 2005-06, a little over 10 per cent of cattle carcasses had diclofenac residue. This came down to below 2 per cent by 2013, except for Rajasthan where it was still over five per cent, claims India’s second National Vulture Conservation Action Plan (2020-25), released by MoEF&CC. Vulture populations are considered safe if the diclofenac prevalence in carcasses drops to below 1 per cent.\nBohra estimates Bikaner, home to the Jorbeer vulture conservation centre and animal carcass dumping site, has a vulture population of 1,795 (give or take 137). In the absence of a national death registry, Bohra has kept a log of vulture deaths in the district for research. He has counted 184 vulture deaths in the district in 2020, which is roughly 10 per cent of the total vulture population in the district.\n‘In the majority of cases, the postmortem report shows the deposition of white precipitate on the kidneys and heart of vultures, indicating death by NSAIDS,’ he says. Almost 30 cattle carcasses are dumped at the Jorbeer reserve daily.\n‘Even if one of them has traces of NSAIDS, it will be consumed by 45-50 vultures,’ he says. Radheshyam Bishnoi, a conservationist in Jaisalmer, says the district saw 120 vulture deaths last year. In some years, the number goes up to 300. ‘At least 20 vultures have died this year. Some of them have died due to electrocution, while some others have died due to the consumption of NSAIDS,’ he says.\nWhen Times of Nation visited Rajasthan’s second-largest cattle shelter in Bhadriya village, Jaisalmer, it found that diclofenac and other NSAIDS are part of its treatment process for cattle. ‘They are effective against seasonal flu. We also use them as painkillers. There are 20-30 cows that undergo treatment at a point of time,’ says a compounder at the cowshed, which has over 50,000 heads of rescued cattle. The cowshed dumps almost five carcasses a day.\nPesticide poisoning also threatens vultures across the country. On March 17, 2022, Kamrup district in Assam reported 97 vulture deaths after they consumed two pesticide-smeared carcasses that had been kept by farmers to kill stray dogs.\nIndia’s vulture conservation action plan for 2020-25 recommends a ban on the veterinary use of the three drugs. It adds that the Drug Controller General of India (DCGI) must institute a system that removes a drug from veterinary use if it is found to be toxic to vultures.\nThe country is also a signatory to the Convention on Migratory Species’ Multi-species Action Plan to Conserve African-Eurasian Vultures, which recognises NSAIDS as a major threat to vultures in India. Still, little seems to have moved on the ground.\n‘The drugs have been deemed to be safe for livestock by the Central Drugs Standard Control Organisation. We have reached out to DCGI (which heads the department) to ban them. They have a technical committee to make such decisions, but the process is lengthy,’ says Prakash.\nHe adds that BNHS has written to the chairpersons of the vulture breeding and conservation centres in Uttar Pradesh and Haryana to garner support to ban the drugs in the states. ‘We have also reached out to the Wildlife Department,’ he says.\nTill recently, train collision was a major reason for vulture deaths in Jaisalamer and Bikaner. It was arrested in 2019 by the construction of walls along the railway tracks. ‘Stray cows would often forage near the railway tracks and get hit by trains. Then vultures would come to eat the carcasses and get run over by trains,’ says Bishnoi. In January 2018, Jaisalmer saw 42 vulture deaths because of train collision.\nIn 2015, Tamil Nadu became the first state to ban the veterinary use of ketoprofen in Nilgiri, Erode and Coimbatore districts. ‘The government wants us to produce more scientific evidence to put a state-wide ban,’ says Subbaiah Bharathidasan, cofounder of non-profit Arulagam.\nHe says the impact of the ban will be felt in the long-run as vultures are slow breeders who lay only one egg a year, which has a survival rate of about 60 per cent.\nSources- Bird Life International and media reports\nIn 2020, Goa’s Directorate of Animal Husbandry and Veterinary Services urged the Food and Drugs Administration Department to consider a ban on ketoprofane and aceclofenac for treatment of animals.\nThere are also safe drug alternatives available to treat cattle. The vulture action plan recommends meloxicam over diclofenac. Prakash says tolfenamic acid is the other safe option.\nThe challenge, though, is a lack of awareness. Bohra says he conducted a study in 2014-15 in Bikaner and found 7,500 vials of NSAIDS were being used for cattle treatment every month. ‘The district, like most others in the country, has limited trained veterinarians and a high number of quack doctors who prescribe drug overdoses,’ he says.\nHe says cowsheds should maintain medical records and note down the time of death of their animals. The treatment should decide whether the body is to be cremated or sent to a dumping ground.\nThis article was first published in the 1-15 April, 2022 edition of Times of Nation\nWe are a voice to you; you have been a support to us.

{"text": "I vividly remember the day I first saw a raven in the wild. A raven can’t be compared to a hawk, because it doesn’t have a hooked beak or talons—it is better described as a menacing, regal, eagle-sized crow. Ravens are strange and otherworldly. John James Audubon’s raven portrait, one of many prints on temporary display at the Peabody Museum of Natural History until July, perfectly replicates this bizarre majesty. Audubon wasn’t purely an artist, or purely a scientist: he combined the two disciplines in fascinating ways.\nAt the centerpiece of the Peabody exhibit are two books on loan from the Beinecke: rare early prints of The Birds of America, Audubon’s masterwork. In fact, Yale’s copy is one of only 110 intact sets that remain. The book, published in four huge volumes (it’s called the “elephant” folio because seemingly no other adjective could conceive of its gigantic size) is a testament to Audubon’s limitless passion, bordering on obsession. The Birds of America contains 1,055 life-sized illustrations of birds—including every species known to exist in America, plus 37 species and subspecies that Audubon discovered himself.\nWhat’s immediately intriguing about the Peabody’s exhibit is the prints’ unshakeable emotional resonance. Although every bird is a scientific specimen, these prints are not pure visual documentation. The birds are dynamic figures; even when they’re standing still they are contorted, opening their wings, craning their necks. The graceful, vibrant creatures are often fighting and swooping in for prey, positioned against sharply bristling greenery and stark, expansive landscapes. Not only is Audubon portraying the birds with a naturalist’s eye for realism, but he also conveys their raw beauty.\nAudubon’s adult life was defined by his passion for birds. Born the illegitimate child of a French slave-owner in Haiti, Audubon grew up in France amidst the chaos of the French Revolution. As a young businessman he resettled in America, where he was immediately and inexplicably enchanted with America’s rich variety of birds. Audubon soon devoted himself to naturalism, living a pioneer lifestyle and crossing the country to document new species. The Peabody’s exhibit effectively portrays this long and arduous livelihood. Because Audubon ensured that his paintings depicted perfect anatomical accuracy, it was crucial for him to see each bird (dead) in the flesh. Audubon travelled extensively to observe birds in their natural habitat. But, if he got word of a new species in a far-off territory that he couldn’t feasibly visit, he always found a way to obtain the bird’s carcass. As we learn in the exhibit, the anatomical accuracy in Audubon’s prints is stunning.\nAccording to Richard Kissel, Director of Public Programs (Exhibitions and Education) at the Peabody Museum, the intersection of art and science in Audubon’s work makes it truly fascinating. In fact, Kissel argues, The Birds of America not only shows an intersection of art and science—it exemplifies how the two disciplines are inextricably intertwined. Kissel writes in an email: “Humanity is a part of nature, so I view all art as falling within the realm of natural history; you can’t remove a species or its product from its broader context.” As Kissel explains, central to Audubon’s paintings are “certain elements of dramatic flair, eliciting emotion from viewers as he captured the beauty and (sometimes) brutality of nature.” After viewing the prints at the Peabody, I find this scientific artistry is evident. Audubon was profoundly skilled at portraying the harsh beauty of nature.\nThough Audubon’s work is artistic, many view Audubon’s scientific contributions as paramount to his legacy. Michael Anderson, the Museum Preparator for the Peabody, explains Audubon’s lasting significance as attributable to the paintings’ unprecedented realism. Even today, “[one] can still go to an Audubon print and accurately count the primary feathers and find the exact shape, length and contour of any bird’s feathers.” Anderson likens Audubon’s innovations to today’s revolutions in 3-D printing. As one closely examines the perfect attention to detail in these elephant folios, it is difficult to conceive of Audubon’s profound devotion to his project. The Birds of America is no less than the product of an entire life of fieldwork. As I examined Audubon’s life-sized raven print, which meticulously replicates not only every physical detail but the true essence of this strange and majestic bird, I began to understand why Audubon has secured such a prominent place in the American imagination.", "label": "No"}
{"text": "Overview of Type 1 and Type 2 Diabetes\nGenerally, diabetes patients suffering from a complete lack of insulin are known as Type 1 diabetes and another one is when the patient have an insufficient amount of insulin or can’t utilize the insulin properly are known as Type 2 diabetes.\nType 1 diabetes\nType 1 diabetes was formerly known as insulin-dependent diabetes, it is an autoimmune state where the body’s immune system cannot identify the pancreatic cells and though attacks it. As the pancreatic cells produce insulin so this attack lead towards very little or no production of insulin.\nType 2 diabetes\nType 2 diabetes was formerly known as non-insulin-dependent diabetes. In this condition, the body couldn’t utilize the insulin effectively. This Type 2 diabetes is usually common among children with overweight, it happens when the insulin produced by the body couldn’t fulfill the required quantity, and the body cells don’t respond properly to the insulin, this syndrome is often known as the insulin resistance.\nType 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disease that happens when the immune system of the body attacks the beta cells of the pancreas. As the beta cells of the pancreas produce insulin, so destroying these cells results in slowly reducing the ability of the body to produce sufficient amount of insulin that regulates the blood glucose levels. Though the exact reason behind this disease is unknown but it is being believed that a person born with a certain combination of genes and the environment around made the genes become active is the cause of Type 1 Diabetes.\nType 2 diabetes is a multifactorial disease that inherits from genes but it get active with obesity and other dietary issues, in this condition the body does not produce sufficient amount of insulin, and the cells of the body resist themselves from the effect of insulin, from this glucose build-up in the blood cells and the cells remain starved for energy. Type 2 diabetes is caused by high glucose levels in blood and also because of obesity, lifestyle disorder, and dietary issues. While consumption of more sugar in diet lead towards excess demands of insulin production and eventually that tends towards insulin resistance over time. The receptor cells that become less resistant to insulin couldn’t remove the glucose from the blood and that lead towards high blood glucose and more demand for insulin production.\nThe major symptoms of Type 1 diabetes start appearing when the blood sugar gets higher. The symptoms of Type 1 diabetes are like unusual thirst, frequent piddling, fatigue, rapidly losing weight, the feeling of numbness in the feet, hunger, and blurred vision. Having higher levels of blood sugar can cause rapid breathing or some breathing problem, nausea, having a fruity breath, and dry skin.\nOn the other side, the major symptoms of type 2 diabetes just don’t show for many years and keep ravaging the patient’s body without their concern. Some of the early symptoms of Type 2 diabetes are like getting frequent infections, fatigue, frequent piddling, unusual thirst, hunger, and blurred vision; sometimes it may include erectile dysfunction in men, and numbness in the hands and the feet. Some other consequences of higher blood pressure are kidney failure, blindness, cardiovascular issues and neurological diseases.\nBoth in type 1 and type 2 diabetes some of the symptoms are similar to feeling thirsty, frequently piddling, fatigue, rapidly losing body weight, uncontrollable urge to eat, weakness, and irritability.\nType 1 Diabetes\nThe Type 1 diabetes, commonly known as juvenile diabetes, usually develops in young people and adults. In this type of diabetes, the body cannot produce insulin or more appropriately sufficient amount of insulin because the immune system of the body that protects us from several infections by getting rid of germs, viruses, bacteria, and some other harmful substances get attacked, and the cells that produce insulin are being destroyed.\nThe treatments for type 1 diabetes are:\n- Taking injections, of insulin.\n- Taking oral medicines.\n- Adopting a healthy diet.\n- Being physically fit and active.\n- Controlling blood pressure levels.\n- Controlling cholesterol levels.\nType 2 Diabetes\nThe Type 2 diabetes, formerly known as the adult-onset diabetes, usually it affects people of all age groups and even children’s also. Generally, Type 2 diabetes results from overweight and inactiveness. This type of diabetes begins with insulin resistance; it is a condition that happens when the fat, muscle, and the liver cells cannot utilize the insulin to carry glucose into the cells of the body that is being used to get energy. And so the body requires more insulin to help glucose enter into the cells. In the initial stages, the pancreas keeps on adding the demand by producing more insulin. But over time, the pancreas stops responding to the demand for more insulin, and it makes an increase in the blood sugar level.\nThe treatments for type 2 diabetes are:\n- Regular intake of diabetes medicines\n- Adapting healthy diet choices\n- Staying physically fit and active\n- Controlling blood pressure levels and checking it on a regular basis.\n- Controlling and regularly checking up the cholesterol levels.\nBitter gourd, widely known as bitter melon, is quite useful for controlling diabetes because of its blood glucose lowering effects. It helps to increase pancreatic insulin secretion and also prevents insulin resistance. It is beneficial for both Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes as well, but in cannot be used instead of a complete insulin treatment.\nAs powdered cinnamon contains bioactive components in it so it can help to prevent and fight diabetes by lowering the blood sugar levels by stimulating insulin activity. Some studies show that Cinnamon can work effectively in lowering blood sugar levels in cases of Type-2 diabetes.\nFenugreek is a common herb that is being used for ages to control the blood sugar levels. It has some medicinal values and apart from that the hypoglycemic activity helps to improve the glucose tolerance level and lowers blood sugar levels. It also controls the secretion of glucose-dependent insulin. As it is rich in fiber, so it slows down the absorption of carbohydrates and sugars.\nIndian gooseberry, a wonder herb it is rich in nutrients, iron, calcium and vitamin C. It also helps to lower the blood sugar levels with its daily use.\nIndian BlackBerry or it is also known as Black plum helps to control the blood sugar level as it contains ellagic acid, anthocyanins, and hydrolysable tannins. The seeds of black palm contain alkaloid jumbo line and glycoside jambosine that helps to control the blood sugar levels.\nThere are three types of Diabetes:\n- The Type 1 Diabetes\n- The Type 2 Diabetes\n- And the Gestational Diabetes\nType 1 diabetes\nThe Type 1 diabetes happens when the immune system attacks and destroys the beta cells present in the pancreas and eventually results in a very little amount of insulin secretion. For this reason, sugar starts to build up in the blood instead of being used in the form of energy. This kind of Diabetes is very rare only 5- 10% of people have Type 1 Diabetes.\nType 2 diabetes\nThe Type 2 diabetes happens when the body couldn’t properly utilize the insulin that is released or could not produce enough insulin. It results in, sugar build up in the blood instead of being used in the form of energy. Type 2 diabetes is quite common among people with diabetes; about 90 % of people with diabetes suffer from type 2 diabetes.\nThe third type of diabetes is known as gestational diabetes this temporary condition happens during pregnancy. Approximately 2 to 4% of ladies get affected by this during their pregnancies resulting from an increased risk of diabetes for both mother and fetus.\nGenerally, blood tests are done in the initial stages after getting some symptoms to confirm the diagnosis of both Type 1 and 2 diabetes. Testing let the doctor know and treat diabetes before any other complications arise, and can prevent type 2 diabetes from developing.\nThe following tests are done for diagnosis of type 1 or type 2 diabetes:\n- Fasting plasma glucose (FPG)\n- Oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT).\nAnother blood test which is rarely done to diagnose diabetes during regular health checkup is the random plasma glucose or the (RPG) test. The doctor diagnoses diabetes when the Random plasma glucose or the (RPG) measures 200 micrograms per deciliter or more than that.\nMedications for type 1 diabetes\nIn type 1 diabetes the body cannot produce insulin of its own. So the patient is treated to replace the insulin that the body cannot produce.\nInsulin is mostly used for the treatment for both type 1 and type 1 diabetes it is one of the common types of medication used for diabetes treatment. The dosage is given by injections and is available in many types and forms. The forms of insulin are as follows:\n- Short-acting insulin\n- Rapid-acting insulins\n- Intermediate-acting insulin\n- Long-acting insulins\n- Combination insulins\nPramlintide is an amylinomimetic drug that is usually injected before meals. It helps to delay the time human stomach takes to empty it. And also prevents glucagon secretion after meals.\nMedications for type 2 diabetes\nIf someone has the type 2 diabetes, and the body could not produce enough insulin, then the patient is treated to substitute the insulin. The forms of medicine that are used to prevent or lower diabetes level are as follows:\n- Alpha-glucosidase inhibitors\n- Dopamine agonist\n- DPP-4 inhibitors\n- Glucagon-like peptides\n- Sodium-glucose transporter (SGLT) 2 inhibitors\nPeople with type 1 and type 2 diabetes often need to take other medications to prevent the issues that are common with diabetes. These medicines include:\n- Aspirin for cardiac issues\n- Medicines to control high cholesterol\n- Medicines to treat high blood pressure\nConsult your Health Expert\nThere are several medicines available in the market for the treatment of both type 1 and type 2 diabetes. But one need to consult with a health expert to know which diabetes medicines are best suited in accordance to the symptoms. The doctor will recommend medicines and tests according to the type of diabetes, health issues, and other factors the patient have.\nThere are no such preventive measures for type 1 diabetes. Some of the possibilities are using the stem cells and pancreas transplant. Whereas for type 2 diabetes preventive measures like losing weight and daily exercising can act as a cure.\nSo Type 1 diabetes is insulin-dependent diabetes, and the Type 2 diabetes is the noninsulin dependent diabetes. Type 1 diabetes occurs when the beta cells attack the pancreas, and the Type 2 diabetes is genetically inherited. The symptoms of both Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes is almost same like unusual thirst, frequent piddling, fatigue, rapidly losing weight, the feeling of numbness in the feet, frequent urge to eat, and blurred vision.\nThe treatment for both types of diabetes is also same the treatment involves taking injections, of insulin, taking oral medicines, adopting a healthy diet, being physically fit and active, controlling blood pressure levels and controlling cholesterol levels.

{"text": "In 1700 the native peoples, whom the Europeans called Indians, demographically dominated the North American continent north of the Rio Grande. If we are to believe the best estimates, they numbered at least 1.6 million, nearly five times the 330,000 or so Europeans and Africans huddled along the Atlantic coast. A century later, by 1800, these proportions had been radically reversed: the inhabitants of North America with European and African ancestry had multiplied dramatically since 1700 and now numbered 5.5 million, over five times the number of remaining indigenous peoples, nine out of ten of whom now lived west of the Mississippi, with most of the eastern Indians having become the victims of war and especially disease.1\nThese startling demographic statistics form the basic setting for understanding European–Indian relations in eighteenth-century America. They also form the background for Alan Taylor’s extraordinary book about white–Indian relations on the northern borderland at the end of the eighteenth century.\nTaylor, a professor of American history at the University of California at Davis, who is among the most distinguished American historians, has written before about the northern borderlands of America. His first book, Liberty Men and Great Proprietors (1990), dealt with the violent protests of settlers against rich and powerful land speculators in the frontier territory of Maine during the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. His next book, William Cooper’s Town, which won the Bancroft Prize and the Pulitzer Prize for history in 1996, was a sensitive study of the great eighteenth-century land speculator who founded Cooperstown in upstate New York and was the father of the novelist James Fenimore Cooper.2\nTaylor is obviously fascinated with borderlands, which are nearly as important a subject for historians these days as that of Indians. He has turned his remarkable gifts for historical recreation to studying the complicated ways in which the various Indian nations of the Iroquois, the rapidly growing numbers of white settlers, and the different governments of New York, the United States, and Great Britain all interacted and clashed during the late eighteenth century in the territory of the Six Nations of the Iroquois—the Mohawks, Oneidas, Tuscaroras, Onondagas, Cayugas, and Senecas.\nDuring the past thirty years or so the Indians have become increasingly central to early American historical scholarship, especially to the period of the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. Not that the Indians have been ignored by most historians, but most of the earlier historical studies were written from the white settlers’ point of view and dealt with what Indian scholars now call the “policies and attitudes” of the whites toward the Indians. The Indians were important, but only for their part in the history of white society; indeed, the native peoples often became simply a means by which the advantages and deficiencies of white civilization could be measured. Some distinguished historians even ignored them altogether.

{"text": "The Guatemalan school year for public and most private schools begins in January and ends in October. This year’s fight against COVID-19 has disrupted the school year for many students in Guatemala. Teachers were preparing to enter the second trimester and grade exams. How many teachers are out of work and unable to interact with their children. Children are now missing necessary instruction to improve critical math and reading skills. This is especially evident in the rural parts of Guatemala. In Chontala, El Quiche, we spoke with Tomas Tol Perez to gain insight into how students are managing their studies during these challenging times. His daughter is among one of those students striving to finish middle school while engaging in distance learning.\nCOVID19 has demonstrated to many people that accessing the internet continues to be a barrier for those with scarce resources. Kids in rural Guatemala are seeing this more than any sector in the country. Specifically, in Chontala kids in primary school are no longer receiving any kind of instruction. This is due to many factors, some that are simple, other factors are more complex. Lack of access to the internet, the cost of internet access, lack of technology fluent family members are among the factors. However, it also does not help when you have a school system that never implemented technology in its everyday instruction to begin with. So, most primary school populations are completely and indefinitely without any kind of instruction.\nIn contrast, secondary and older school age youth are receiving some type of instruction. The amount and complexity of that instruction differs according to how available resources are in the corresponding community. In Chontala, the older youth are receiving homework, turning in assignments, and receiving occasional instructional videos from their teachers via the application WhatsApp. These exchanges between teachers and students happen around 2 to 3 times a week. These older students are considered fortunate because their futures are considered less hazy.\nIn Chontala and other communities, parents, students, and teachers are very worried. Many of these concerns overlap. In Guatemala, some teachers are paid by the local parents and not the government. These teachers usually teach subjects such as English. In Chontala, the English teacher is without a salary because parents can’t afford to pay for a teacher who is not able to teach their children because of COVID-19. Other teachers that are paid by the government are receiving their salaries. Parents, whose children are in primary schools are worried about whether or not their children will pass their current grade. Will there be midterms or final exams? If so, how can you test a child who has not been receiving any type of instruction? Will they be graduated automatically or forced to repeat a grade? If Guatemala finishes our shelter in place period before the school year ends, will parents be able to pay certain teachers? If they are not, who will or will students have a shortage of teachers?\nMany of these questions concern an uncertain future and a future that the government is ill equipped to handle. Life in Guatemala for most has always been a balancing act of falling into an abyss or staying afloat to survive. For many, that is even more the case in these times.", "label": "No"}
{"text": "The type of chicken feed you give to your hens will depend on size - a normal sized hen will need about 110g to 170g of grain a day & bantams will need about 50 to 85g a day. However if your hen is really free range and is allowed to wander free around your garden supplementing its diet with juicy grubs, insects and vegetation, 100g or less will suffice.\nYou can also supplement their diet with left over food – they have a hankering for carbs such as rice, pasta, bread and potatoes. They will also eat vegetables, fruit, seeds, hard cheese, meat etc. However avoid salty food, banana skins, uncooked potato peelings, chocolate and fish bones in your chicken feed. Like children they can be faddy eaters though – so try experimenting with different leftovers.\nGrain & Corn\nChickens need a good balanced \"Layers Mash\" or \"Layers Pellet\" which contains all the grains, vitamins, minerals and proteins a hen needs to maintain good health and performance and can be acquired from any animal feed store or online. Pellets are easy for chickens to eat, however they may get bored if they are in a confined area; whereas mash keeps them happy for hours. As a treat you may like to give your chickens some mixed corn which is best scattered around on the ground. This encourages them to scratch around and take in grit which they need for digestion (see chicken digestion). Only use corn as a treat as they need to eat their mash or pellets to produce the maximum amount of eggs.\nGrit & Oyster Shell\nChickens do not have teeth so they must have access to grit which the hen stores in the gizzard and uses to aid digestion (see chicken digestion).\nFresh clean water is essential for your chickens and should ALWAYS be available. It is important to regularly check the water supply, particularly in hot weather to ensure it's not run dry, as well as freezing conditions to ensure the water isn't frozen.", "label": "No"}
{"text": "It may not count as a near miss, but there’s an asteroid passing very close to Earth today. How close? 66,000km close. That may sound like a long way away, but to give you some idea of where that distance falls in line with other close proximity objects we know about, our satellites orbit at around 20,000km, and the Moon is around 356,000km away. Therefore the asteroid will be classified in the top 20 of closest passes on record.\nThe asteroid is called 2012 BX34 and measures roughly 11 meters in diameter. It did cause a few astonomers concern when it was initially discovered. Observers thought BX34 would pass much closer to Earth at around 20,000km, but the predictions were off and we are not going to lose any satellites. A collision with Earth definitely won’t happen so we can all relax.\nIf you’re trying to visualize how big an 11 meter wide asteroid is, the BBC refer to it as about the same size as a double-decker bus:\nEven so, when it passes by at around 11am EST (4pm GMT), you won’t be able to look up and see it with the naked eye. However, if you’re an amateur astronomer with a decent telescope set up, you could catch a glimpse of it speeding past.\nGareth Williams of the Minor Planet Center has some further reassurance for us. A bus-sized asteroid may sound huge, but in the grand scheme of things it is relatively tiny, and even if it did have a course that saw it travel into our atmosphere, it would most likely break up into smaller pieces.", "label": "No"}

Here are just some of the things Glen Rose has been using VideoScribe for.\nUsing VideoScribe to promote your school\nScribes are so easy to make that younger students are putting them together in class. Older students, like the girls from the Lady Tigers volleyball team, make scribes from scratch. The highlight for us was definitely hearing about the video of the Glen Rose volleyball team projected on the big screen at the school stadium. It's great to see a scribe video up in lights!\nUsing VideoScribe in the classroom\nVideoScribe in action in the 4th grade classroom. Even young children take to scribing in no time. Working together on an interactive whiteboard makes scribing a fun, tactile experience.\nUsing VideoScribe on your intranet\nOne of Patti's first scribes explains the ways that Glen Rose is innovating its classrooms by embracing new technology. Teachers upload their videos to the school intranet so that students can access valuable learning resources from home. VideoScribe is perfect for supporting flipped classrooms, giving the students a chance to consolidate their learning by making their own scribes at home.\nUsing VideoScribe for learning resources\nCan you guess the US monuments? Teachers and students have worked together to produce activities like these to support the students' learning. The results from our AB testing last year showed that young people watching scribe videos were up to twice as likely to remember the answers to questions than students watching regular talking head videos. They also had better recall in 4 out of 5 memory tests.\nInnovate your classroom\nThank you Patti and everyone at Glen Rose School for embracing VideoScribe and sending us your wonderful videos.

{"text": "What Is Sleep Apnea?\nSleep apnea is a condition that occurs when a person experiences pauses in their breathing while asleep. People who have sleep apnea may stop breathing numerous times at night, often for a minute or longer. This can lead to dangerous side effects and long-term health risks if left untreated. Our dentists at Kois Dentistry offer advanced dental care solutions to effectively treat sleep apnea, helping patients manage the condition and prevent the cessation of breathing. To learn more about the condition and how our team customizes snore guards to treat mild to moderate sleep apnea, visit the sections below.\n- Sleep Apnea in Children\n- Sleep Apnea Symptoms\n- Sleep Apnea Causes\n- Sleep Apnea Side Effects\n- Sleep Apnea Treatment\nSleep Apnea in Children\nSnoring occurs in more than 10 percent of children, often due to allergies or an acute respiratory illness. Snoring can also indicate a more serious problem known as sleep-related breathing disorders (SRBD), which can include sleep apnea. According to the American Sleep Apnea Association, 1 to 4 percent of children suffer from sleep apnea. Since an adequate amount of oxygen cannot reach the lungs, this can cause children to snore loudly, experience pauses in breathing, and wake up throughout the night.\nAs more and more children have been diagnosed with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) over the past 10 years, research has shown that many do not actually have the condition. A recent study indicates that, instead, many of these children have a sleep-related breathing disorder that is causing similar behavioral problems.\nThis study, which was published in the journal Pediatrics in 2012, followed over 11,000 children starting when they were six months old and continuing for six years. Those with SRBD were at least 40 percent more prone to developing behavioral issues similar to ADHD by the age of seven, compared to kids without any breathing problems.\nThis study shows that children with symptoms similar to those of ADHD should be evaluated to determine if poor sleep quality could be a factor in their behavioral problems. Signs that children may suffer from sleep apnea or another breathing disorder include having abnormally high bursts of energy, a poor attention span, and difficulty cooperating—all of which are also experienced in those with ADHD.\nWhat Are the Symptoms of Sleep Apnea?\nSleep apnea can be a particularly difficult problem to diagnose because many sufferers do not realize they have it. In many cases, a family member or partner is the first one to notice the altered breathing habits while their loved one is sleeping. Common signs that an adult has sleep apnea include the following:\n- Loud snoring\n- Choking or gasping for air at night\n- Chronic headaches in the morning\n- Persistent fatigue every day\n- Restless sleep or insomnia\nWhile adults typically feel tired due to interrupted sleep, children often have behavioral problems due to their poor sleep quality. No matter one’s age, having sleep constantly interrupted by breathing issues will affect their ability to function normally. Symptoms specific to children that may indicate they have sleep apnea or a sleep-related breathing disorder include the following:\n- Loud snoring\n- Long pauses in breathing while asleep\n- Choking during the night\n- Frequent tossing and turning\n- Teeth grinding\n- Waking several times in the night\n- Having night panics\n- Pattern of bed-wetting\n- Drowsiness during the day\n- Difficulty paying attention during school or at home\n- Other behavioral issues, often similar to those of ADHD\nIf one or more of these symptoms have occurred, you should talk with your doctor about a possible sleep-related breathing disorder and have your child evaluated.\nWhat Causes Sleep Apnea?\nObstructive sleep apnea is the most common form of the condition. This is often caused by the soft tissues and muscles in the back of the throat relaxing and closing the airway. Children with a sleep-related breathing disorder like sleep apnea experience frequent interruptions in their breathing while they sleep, since soft tissues like the tonsils or tongue can partially block their windpipe. When sleep apnea occurs, these tissues may vibrate as air passes, causing the sound of snoring. Patients may also gasp to catch their breath at night or stop breathing for extended periods of time. This breathing disorder is typically worse at night as people sleep on their back, causing the jaw to shift backwards and their tongue to rest closer to the airway. Excess weight and obesity tend to exacerbate this problem, since fatty tissue in the soft palate can decrease the airway opening.\nAre There Any Side Effects to Sleep Apnea?\nSince sleep apnea prevents sufferers from getting enough quality sleep at night, there are a number of side effects that can occur due to the continually interrupted sleep. This can include:\n- Weight gain\n- Memory loss\n- Drowsy driving\n- Sexual dysfunction\n- Gastric reflux\nWhen an individual experiences numerous breathing pauses while sleeping, this decreases the amount of oxygen in the bloodstream needed to reach the organs. This is how sleep apnea can become a life-threatening condition when left untreated.\nOver time, the combination of poor quality sleep and inefficient oxygen flow can increase a person’s risk of developing serious health concerns. From hypertension and diabetes to stroke and heart disease, sleep apnea has been linked to a wide range of diseases—and even cardiac arrest in severe cases. Fortunately, it can be easily managed if diagnosed.\nHow Is Sleep Apnea Treated?\nTo receive a sleep apnea diagnosis, people must participate in a sleep study with a specialist, which is conducted to evaluate their sleep patterns. If mild to low moderate sleep apnea is detected, individuals can visit Kois Dentistry to obtain a custom-made snore guard to help manage their condition. These sleep appliances are custom-fitted to your unique anatomy to ensure your breathing passages remain open at night. As a result, patients are able to get a significantly better night’s sleep, feeling well-rested in the morning. When young patients are diagnosed with sleep apnea, they can often benefit from a type of child orthodontic treatment, like palatal expanders, depending on their stage of growth. Since they are still growing, the bone structure of their mouth can often be widened to allow for improved airflow.\nFor more severe sleep apnea cases, CPAP therapy or surgery may be necessary. CPAP (continuous positive airway pressure) therapy is a common form of managing sleep apnea. It works by delivering pressurized air via a tubing and mask system to help prevent the collapse of soft tissues in the airway. While effective, CPAP therapy is known as being an uncomfortable method of treatment, causing many individuals to not wear the device as needed. Since this system will only work if properly utilized, some patients may be better candidates for surgery. Treating sleep apnea with surgery typically involves removing excess or unnecessary tissues located near the back of the throat, such as the adenoids or tonsils. When surgery is performed for sleep apnea, the airway is able to remain more open at night, since enlarged tissue no longer blocks the breathing passages.\nAlthough appliances like snore guards and CPAPs are not a replacement for healthy functional anatomy, seeking treatment with these solutions can often alleviate side effects and reduce the risk of severe health problems in the future.

{"text": "Krakatoa Volcano Information\nKrakatau / Krakatoa Volcano Information\nThe renowned Krakatau volcano lies in the Sunda Strait between Java and Sumatra. Caldera collapse, perhaps in 416 AD, destroyed the ancestral Krakatau edifice, forming a 7-kilometer-wide caldera. Remnants of this volcano formed Verlaten and Lang Islands; subsequently Rakata, Danan and Perbuwatan volcanoes were formed, coalescing to create the pre-1883 Krakatau Island.\nCaldera collapse during the catastrophic 1883 eruption destroyed Danan and Perbuwatan volcanoes, and left only a remnant of Rakata volcano.\nThe post-collapse cone of Anak Krakatau (Child of Krakatau), constructed within the 1883 caldera at a point between the former cones of Danan and Perbuwatan, has been the site of frequent eruptions since 1927.\nThe Krakatau edifice grew as one or more stratovolcanoes of dominantly hypersthene-augite andesite composition. The geology of Krakatau has been described by Effendi and others (1985, 1986), who identified five main evolutionary periods. Period 1 was an early growth phase that included accumulation of lavas and pyroclastics. Period 2 was marked by caldera formation, accompanied by pyroclastic flows and partly welded tuffs (ignimbrites). The cones of Rakata, Danan, and Perbuwatan grew during the third period and were largely destroyed during the fourth period, which included the paroxysmal eruption of August 1883. Another growth phase (period 5) began by December 1927, when Anak Krakatau was first noticed in submarine eruption. …\nSeveral years of regional seismicity culminated in the famous caldera-forming eruption of August 1883 (Verbeek, 1886; Judd, 1888). Earthquakes were felt in west Java and eastern Sumatra 5-6 years before the 1883 eruption, and in northern Australia in the 3 years before the eruption. On 1 September 1880, a strong earthquake damaged the First Point lighthouse on the west end of Java (70 kilometers south-southwest of Krakatau). more earthquakes were felt at First Point on 9-10 May 1883 and at Katimbang (40 kilometers north-northeast) during 15-20 May 1883. None of the above-mentioned earthquakes is known to have been of volcanic origin and centered beneath Krakatau; more likely, they reflect a buildup and release of tectonic stress in the sunda Strait area.\nA mild ash and steam eruption began from Perbuwatan on 20 May 1883, and similar eruptions continued for 3 months. At times several vents were in eruption simultaneously. On 11 August, vigorous ash-laden gas columns rose from the main crater of Perbuwatan, the former vent of Danan, and from the foot of Danan; in addition, “no fewer than eleven other foci of eruption could be observed on the visible portions of the island, from which smaller steam-columns issued and ejections of ash took place” (Judd, 1888, p.13). At least some of the early ash was basaltic, suggesting that intrusion of basaltic melt into the silicic reservoir may have played a role in initiating these eruptions (Francis and Self, 1983). The small eruptions intensified on 24 August 1883 and culminated in the famous, climactic explosion of 27 August 1883 (Verbeek, 1886; Judd, 1888; Simkin and Fiske, 1983).\nEarthquakes and rumbling, not demonstrably from Krakatau, were noted in 1898 (Koninklijk Magnetisch en Meteorologisch Observatorium te Batavia, 1899). On 13 August 1913, a strong tectonic earthquake occurred in the Bantam-Krakatau region, damaging the First Point lighthouse. Fishermen where were on the islands of Krakatau reported that part of the caldera wall collapsed. They also reported that at 1000 hours a “column of fire” rose out of the crater, whereupon they heard a cannonlike sound and fled (Visser, 1920). There are no independent reports of eruptions of Krakatau in 1913, and we suspect that only a landslide occurred.\nEruptions from December 1927 to 1981, mostly of basaltic andesite, built the Anak Krakatau (“child of Krakatau”) cone in the center of the 1883 caldera …\nThe August 1883 eruption of Krakatau is often cited as a classic example of caldera formation by collapse following eruption of large volumes of pumice (Williams, 1941; Williams and McBirney, 1979; Self and Rampino, 1981, 1982; Francis and Self, 1983). However, other workers have suggested alternate mechanisms for formation of the Krakatau Caldera. Yokoyama (1981, 1982) concluded that the caldera formed by explosive destruction and reaming of the preeruption edifice, and Camus and Vincent (1983) and Francis (1985) favored an origin by large-scale collapse of the northern part of Krakatau Island (similar to the volcanic landslide at Mount St. Helens on 18 May 1980). Regrettable, much of the evidence is sumbmarine and inaccessible, but we are impressed by the similarity of Krakatau and other, better-exposed calderas (for example, Crater Lake) that are thought to have formed by simple collapse following voluminous pumice eruptions. The volume of magma erupted in the plinian eruption (9 cubic kilometers) is adequate to explain the caldera without invoking a landslide origin.\nVolcanic Explosivity Index (VEI) is a scale that describes the size of an explosive volcanic eruption. VEI is analogous to the Richter magnitude scale for earthquakes. In the 0 to 8 scale of VEI, each interval represents an increase of a factor of ten. An eruption of VEI 4 is 10 times larger than a 3 and one hundred times larger than a 2. Key characteristics that define VEI include:\nVolume of ash produced\nHeight of eruption cloud above the vent\nDuration of eruption\nKrakatau, Indonesia, 1883\nVEI 6 (Very Large)\nBulk Volume of Erupted Products: 4 cubic miles\nAshfall thicknesses vary greatly within a single VEI category due to differences in eruption and wind conditions. Typically a VEI 6 will produce:\nEruption column height above vent: greater than 80,000 feet\nApproximate ash thickness at 10 miles: 10 feet\nApproximate ash thickness at 100 miles: 1 foot\nApproximate ash thickness at 300 miles: 1 inch\nArticle above taken from Volcanology USGS Gov\nKrakatau tour or krakatoa Volcano tours the journey will start from carita beach crossing sunda strait by speed boat double engine to the volcanic island of Krakatoa-Cracatoa-krakatau which about 45 miles a way and the journey will Takes about 1,5 hours on the way sail to Krakatau volcano possibility to see group of flying fish, Tuna, dolphin come to the surface and jump, for while the view of Sumatra and java island can be see as well, the fishing house nearby Carita beach and fisherman with traditional wooden boat make completely scene of Sunda strait, the Sunda strait is busy shipping land. the first destination is anak krakatau (child of Krakatau), sail around the anak Krakatau to see the kind of larva and the smoke can be seen come out from the VAN and from the sloven of Krakatau the new crater now is on the side toward to the west since November 2007, the boat will stop for view minutes to take time and give chance to get picture of smoking steam crater and the continuing journey to the land of Anak Krakatau volcano, landing at the Krakatau beach mostly clear water with soft and hot black sand, after take rest for a few minute continuing tracking, hiking and climb up to the top of Anak Krakatau, the normal tours to Krakatau climb up only to the first level (the first elevation) at about 180m from sea level, also possible to climb up to the second level (highest elevation) at about 300 m from sea level need authority permit. the journey will takes about 30-40 minutes to climbing first level of anak Krakatau and will takes about 90 minutes climbing Krakatau – Cracatoa Volcano to the highest elevation. the fabulous view from the elevation one of your proudly if you can reach the first elevation its also be our proudly to take you to the elevation of Krakatau volcano. from here we can see the view of outer Island of Krakatau and one of the best place to take a picture of Krakatau and other island around Krakatau (Sertung Island, Rakata Island, and panjang island) Sumatra and Java can be seen when the weather are clear. the hot volcanic sand and smoke steam come out from rock hole “Van” make the completely of your trip to krakatau volcano tours or Krakatoa tour, the next destination we will visit Rakata island (The Mother of krakatau) for skin dive / snorkeling at the Legon Cabe “chili bay” coral reef here we will try to see kind of colorful coral fishes after skin dive we will landing on the beach for lunch, swimming and sun bathing the beach at Rakata island mostly clear glassy and blue water here is last destination the tour completely and sail back to Carita beach end of tour. to make your experiences and adventure tours more impressing about Krakatau we suggest you to visit Anyer light house here you will see the ruin of old light house which destroyed by Tsunami of Krakatau and the new light house was built in 1885 2 year after Krakatau explosion.\nThe Krakatoa Volcano – Krakatau Volcano Indonesia this group of island consists of three islands and one volcano. These islands and volcano were formerly a single giant ancient Krakatoa – Krakatau volcano. It believed that the ancient volcano erupted at around 600 AD and tore apart in to 3 islands which now surrounded the current active volcano. Due to the volcanic activities, once again the southern part of he remain grew up and formed a new volcano, followed by the growth of other two volcano to its north and joined up together formed a 9 km of length and 3 km of width of fire island.\nAugust 27, 1883 was recorded as the biggest eruption the volcano ever made. Killed more than 36.000 peoples, devastated the surrounding area with it’s 30 -40 m high of tidal wave. The two volcanoes on the north plus half cone of the southern volcano were gone.

A series of eruptions 185 m below the surface of the sea resulted in the emergence of tree new island, one after the other. They were all soon destroyed by surf. A fourth emerged from the sea on August 12th 1930. It remained above water, and was aptly named Anak Krakatau ( Child of Krakatau ). its grew by the accumulation of ash, and suffered a devastating eruption in 1952, and another very destructive one in 1972. It is now 300 m high and 2 km in diameter, and is still active. The northeast coast, north forel and and east fore land are now vegetated; the succession of vegetation is still at an early stage, over 200 species of higher plants Casuarina Equisetifolia (Cemara ) being the dominant trees and 36 kinds species of birds was recorded at 1980.\nThe three outer islands of the present Krakatau volcano group (Rakata, Sertung and Panjang) are though to be the remnants of one previous huge volcanic island called “Ancient Krakatau” . it was 11.000 m in diameter and 2000 m high, according to records in the Javanes BOOK OF KING it exploded and collapsed, perhaps in prehistoric times but possibly as recently as 416 AD.\nType and Typical of Krakatau (Krakatoa) volcano Sunda Strait Indonsia\nName : Krakatoa Volcano – Krakatau Volcano\nLocation : Sunda Strait, between Java and Sumatra, Indonesia\nSummit elevation : 813 M (2.667 ft), Anak Krakatau 300 M\nVolcano type : Caldera\nLast eruption of Krakatau : 1530, 1680, 1684, 1883 (Plinian eruption), 1927-30 (reborn of anak Krakatau), 1931-32, 1932-34, 1943, 1944, 1945, 1946, 1946-47, 1949, 1950, 1952, 1953, 1955, 1958-59, 1959-63, 1965, 1969, 1972-73, 1975, 1978, 1979, 1980, 1981, 1988, 1992-93, 1994-95, 1996, 1997, 1999, 2000, 2001, Oct 2007 – March 2008, 24th March 2009 till October 2009, Now October 2010… !,\nKrakatau typical eruption : Explosive, Contruction of chinder cone island (Anak Krakatau) inside caldera formed by the Krakatau 1883 eruption. frequently strombolian activities.\nKrakatoa tour – Krakatau tour the new up date information about Krakatau volcano:\nThe Krakatoa Volcano – krakatau volcano are active with explosion and tossed the hard material\nsince 24th March 2009 till to October 2009, Now..

{"text": "All students of City Vision University must follow our Standards of Academic Integrity, which include avoiding all forms of plagiarism. Plagiarism has serious consequences, up to and including dismissal from the course after the second offense.\nPlagiarism includes more than simply copying text from a website, book, encyclopedia or other source and not referencing the place from which you copied it. Plagiarism is not just intentional deception or fraud – there are other ways that you can use sources improperly when writing for college.\nBelow is a list of some of the most common forms of plagiarism, from What is Plagiarism?\nturning in someone else’s work as your own\ncopying words or ideas from someone else without giving credit\nfailing to put a quotation in quotation marks\ngiving incorrect information about the source of a quotation\nchanging words but copying the sentence structure of a source without giving credit\ncopying so many words or ideas from a source that it makes up the majority of your work, whether you give credit or not\nTake note particularly of the last type of plagiarism: you can be considered to have committed plagiarism if you take most of the ideas for your writing from a single source, even if you give credit to the source.\nThe majority of the words in your assignments, including forum posts, must be your own for you to receive credit for the assignment. If you take most of the words for a forum post from a single web page or other source, that will be considered plagiarism, even if you provide a link to the website or another reference.\nColleges like City Vision University care about plagiarism for several reasons:\nCopying work from other people without giving credit is not tolerated in the business environment any more than it is in college. The specifics of how to give credit may be different but the principle is the same. In this way, we hope to prepare you for your future career.\nCopying from other sources and pages that you find on Google doesn’t demonstrate that you’ve learned the material in your courses. Having to explain an idea or concept in your own words shows that you actually understand it, and will help you remember it after the course is over.\nGiving credit to others for their work when you use it in your college writing is the standard practice that makes academic work possible. You are building on others’ research, thoughts and ideas in what you say and others in turn may build on what you say. This can only continue if people know where the ideas originally come from.\nFinally, the more obvious forms of plagiarism (such as copying others’ writing and presenting it as your own) are simply a question of honesty: we are a Christian institution, and we value students’ being honest about what is their own work.\nSince plagiarism is such a significant issue, how do you avoid plagiarism? Fortunately, most forms of plagiarism can be avoided by letting people know where you are getting your words and ideas from – this done through citations.\nCity Vision uses the APA format for citations in Addiction Counseling & Ministry courses. Nonprofit Management & Business courses use citations similar to what might be used for a business plan or grant application. For more on how to do each kind of citations, see our Writing Requirements page.\nNote that it is not sufficient to put in citations at the end of your paper, but not use any in-text citations. You have to put in the in-text citations so that people reading your paper know which specific source a quotation comes from.\nIn Discussion posts, you can use web links instead of citations to reference your sources. Just put the URL (the part in the browser bar that usually starts with “http” or “www”) in parentheses.\nSee here for a list of tools that can make it easier for you to create citations, like CitationMachine and Zotero.\nThe following 2 articles will help you know when to cite a source:\nEvidence – look specifically at the “How Can I Incorporate Evidence in My Paper?” section\nThe entire second article is very helpful, but the most important part of it is the following:\nIn order to decide if the [information] you want to use in your paper constitutes “common knowledge” [and doesn’t need to be cited] you may find it helpful to ask yourself the following questions:\nDid I know this information before I took this course?\nDid this information/idea come from my own brain?\nIf you answer “no” to either or both of these questions, then the information is not “common knowledge” to you. In these cases, you need to cite your source(s) and indicate where you first learned this bit of what may be “common knowledge” in the field.\nNote that the exact words of an author always need to be cited. However, in many circumstances, you should not use an author’s exact words, but instead should take their ideas and rewrite them into your own words.\nThis is called a paraphrase if it is roughly the same length as the original, and a summary if you shorten it by just covering the key ideas from what they said. Quotations should mainly be used when you are discussing the words themselves. For more information on this, see When to Quote, Paraphrase or Summarize a Source.", "label": "No"}

Without them we are nothing.\nOriginally pencils weren’t made of wood. The first pencil was a soft metal rod, often lead, used by the Romans to leave a mark on papyrus. Graphite came into being when it was discovered in the Lake District in the 16th century. It was softer, cheaper and didn’t turn you mad if you chewed the end of it. The name ‘graphite’ stems from the Greek word ‘graphein’ meaning 'to write'.\nThe increased softness required a wrap, which came in the form of a two part wooden barrel. Originally they were left bare, to showcase the quality wood, but as pencils became more mass-produced, the wood was painted over and branded too. Yellow, still commonly used to paint pencils, was used because it represented ‘respect’ in China – where much of the graphite was coming from.\nNowadays we chew/draw through 14 billion pencils a year. That’s a lot of trees. Some people use them as a medium to work with, and here are our favourites, alongside some other useful links.\nNimble fingered New Zealand artist Peter Trevelyan makes incredible sculptures, large and small, using pencil leads of varying thicknesses.

{"text": "Destination List > Colonial National Historical Park\nColonial National Historical Park\nPhoto by Ken Lund\nColonial National Historical Park protects and interprets several sites relating to the Colony of Virginia and the history of the United States, ranging from the site of the first landing of the English settlers who would settle at Jamestown, to the battlefields of Yorktown where the British Army was finally defeated in the American Revolutionary War.\nSiege of Yorktown\nThe siege of Yorktown, also known as the Battle of Yorktown, the surrender at Yorktown, or the German battle (from the presence of Germans in all three armies), began on September 28, 1781, and ended on October 19, 1781 with a decisive victory over the British Army.\nThe combined forces of the American Continental Army troops led by General George Washington and Gilbert du Motier, Marquis de Lafayette, and French Army troops led by Comte de Rochambeau defeared the British Army troops commanded by British Lieutenant General Charles Cornwallis.\nThe siege proved to be the last major land battle of the American Revolutionary War in the North American region, as the surrender by Cornwallis, and the capture of both him and his army, prompted the British government to negotiate an end to the conflict.\nIn 1780, about 5,500 French soldiers landed in Rhode Island to help their American allies fight the British troops who controlled New York City.\nFollowing the arrival of dispatches from France that included the possibility of support from the French West Indies fleet of the Comte de Grasse, disagreements arose between Washington and Rochambeau on whether to ask de Grasse for assistance in besieging New York or in military operations against a British army in Virginia. On the advice of Rochambeau, de Grasse informed them of his intent to sail to the Chesapeake Bay, where Cornwallis had taken command of the army. Cornwallis, at first given confusing orders by his superior officer, Henry Clinton, was eventually ordered to build a defensible deep-water port, which he began to do in Yorktown. Cornwallis' movements in Virginia were shadowed by a Continental Army force led by the Marquis de Lafayette.\nThe French and American armies united north of New York City during the summer of 1781. Both armies began moving south toward Virginia, engaging in tactics of deception to lead the British to believe a siege of New York was planned.\nFrench officer Comte de Grasse sailed from the West Indies and arrived at the Chesapeake Bay at the end of August, bringing additional troops and creating a naval blockade of Yorktown. He was transporting 500,000 silver pesos collected from the citizens of Havana, Cuba, to fund supplies for the siege and payroll for the Continental Army.\nIn the beginning of September, de Grasse defeated a British fleet led by Sir Thomas Graves that came to relieve Cornwallis at the Battle of the Chesapeake. As a result of this victory, de Grasse blocked any reinforcement or escape by sea for Cornwallis. He also provided the heavy siege guns required by the allied land forces. By late September, Washington and Rochambeau arrived, and the army and naval forces completely surrounded Cornwallis.\nAfter initial preparations, the Americans and French armies began the attack. With the British defense weakened, on October 14, 1781, Washington sent two columns to attack the last major remaining British outer defenses. With these defenses taken, Franco-American bombardment became more intense.\nCornwallis asked for surrender terms on October 17. After two days of negotiation, the surrender ceremony occurred on October 19; Cornwallis was absent from the ceremony. With the capture of more than 7,000 British soldiers, negotiations between the United States and Great Britain began, resulting in the Treaty of Paris of 1783.", "label": "No"}

Here in the Rockies plants are blooming an average of 2-4 weeks earlier than normal. The dry La Nina winter has been warm and dry in the Colorado Front Range, leading to a series of fires this last week and early but not lush vegetation growth. Black bears are already coming out of hibernation! Just this last week tulips, grape hyacinths and other garden bulbs have started flowering, green ashes are in bloom now and crabapples and plums are covered with white or pinkish blooms. Forsythia is in full bloom now. All are about 3 weeks early this year. We are having day after day of temperatures in the 70's or even 80's, whereas normal is closer to 50-60 degrees.\nCherry Blossom Blitz: Reports are beginning to trickle in of chokecherries, sweet cherries, and Japanese cherries beginning to bud out or to bloom, first in the south, but more in northern areas as well. In my yard the sweet cherries and the chokecherries have swelling buds this week. Every day new plants become active -- its the best time of the year to be watching plants!\nPhenology in the Garden\nThis time of the year, as garden soils are thawing out, and budding plants are everywhere it's a good time to consider another value to knowing when plants start budding out or sending out their first flowers. Phenology is an ancient science, and was practiced long before there was much scientific understanding of what clues plants use to determine when to start their spring growth. For early agriculturists it was a matter of survival. Phenology was used to determine when to plant crops, and to time other activities on farms or ranches.\nFor gardeners and homeowners today phenology can be used to determine when to start various treatments in lawns or gardens, and are much more accurate than using some general date on the calendar. For example when Forsythia is in bloom is often used to indicate when to start worrying about treating weed seeds in lawns. Soils need to reach about 35 degrees before seeds of lettuce and onion may be expected to germinate. This temperature can be determined by which species of wildflower are active. Flowering of dandelions can be used to estimate this time period. Some other examples of how phenology can be used in the garden:\nplant potatoes when dandelions are in bloom\ntransplant melons and peppers when irises are in bloom\nplant tomatoes when lily of the valley (Convallaria majalis) is in full bloom.\nOf course like a lot of hints provided to complex phenomena in nature the devil is in the details. These rules of thumb vary depending on where you live, and the specifics of your home or garden. But you can see that if you keep careful records on the phenology of your garden as well as wilder places around you, you can develop your own rules for when to do various tasks in the yard or garden. As our weather and climate continues to gyrate wildly from year to year these clues may become a lot more useful than the typical generic guidelines you see in gardening publications.\nProject Budburst is all about becoming closely connected with and in touch with your local environment. This knowledge can have practical advantages too!\nMore examples of garden phenology", "label": "No"}

{"text": "Eighty percent of the tea drunk in the U.S. is bottled tea, meant to be served cold.\nWho invented iced tea?\nIt’s possible that centuries ago, some wealthy* person (or servant) in the tea-growing nations of Ceylon, China, India or Japan may have taken some ice from the ice-house to cool down a cup of hot tea.\nIf it ever happened, the practice didn’t take hold, and no old recipes exist for it.\nIced Tea Enters The Recipe Books\nWe don’t know who made the first iced tea, but we can approximate when it happened.\nThe oldest known recipe for “sweet ice tea” (with lots of sugar) was published in 1879, in a community cookbook called “Housekeeping in Old Virginia” by Marion Cabell Tyree.\nThe recipe calls for green tea, which was popular in the Colonies (Benjamin Franklin mentions it in his autobiography) before falling out of favor—likely because milk and sugar, the popular accompaniments, taste better in black tea.\nThere’s also a newspaper clipping recounting the menu served at the 1890 Missouri State Reunion of Ex-Confederate Veterans, which included iced tea.\nWhat you’ll most likely find in books and online is that iced tea was inadvertently “invented” in St. Louis at the 1904 Louisiana Purchase Exposition (often called the 1904 World’s Fair, but that term was not yet in use).\nAs the story goes, Richard Blechynden, a tea merchant, was having limited success getting people to taste his hot tea in the intense summer heat and humidity of St. Louis. He had the idea to add ice into the tea, thus creating a refreshing, cool drink.\nBlechynden is sometimes referred to as a tea plantation owner, but in fact, he was an Englishman employed as the India Tea Commissioner. He headed an initiative, begun in 1896, to publicize the black teas of India and Ceylon (modern day Sri Lanka) to Americans.\nAccording to TeaUSA.org, Blechynden and his tea samples were in the elaborately designed India pavilion. When he realized that it was too hot to get the crowds to taste free samples of his hot tea, Blechynden and his team did something ingenious.\nThey didn’t toss ice into the tea, as is commonly written. Instead, they created a cooling apparatus, filling several large bottles with brewed tea and placing the bottles upside-down on a stand that allowed the tea to flow through iced lead pipes, emerging chilled.\nThe “iced” tea was a hit at the fair, and a real boon to India tea awareness. After the fair, Blechynden took the lead pipe apparatus to New York City, offering free iced tea to shoppers at Bloomingdale Brothers’ department store.\nGreen Tea Fades Away…For 80 Years\nWord spread, and iced black tea became a popular summertime drink. It led to recipes for tea punch, which included simple syrup, fruit juices (cherry, grape, lemon, orange and/or pineapple), lemon and/or orange slices, maraschino cherries, fresh mint and canned or preserved fruits.\nBlechynden’s efforts also raised the popularity of black tea as a hot drink. Interest in green tea faded—except to those who visited Japanese restaurants beginning around 1970—until the health-conscious 1990s.\nComments are closed.", "label": "No"}
{"text": "Beardsley (1872 – 1898) was an English artist and illustrator of the Aesthetics movement, the British equivalent of the European Decadent movement, and was one of the artists whose work went on to inspire the art nouveau movement.\n\"I have one aim — the grotesque. If I am not grotesque I am nothing.\"\nAubrey Beardsley died very young at the age of 26 from tuberculosis, and was only artistically active for a period of around 6 years, though was very prolific during that time.\nAubrey Beardsley's distinctive style is characterized by its simple graceful lines in black ink and with high contrasts. Large areas of Beardsley's drawings would be blacked out where others would be left a blank white. Though not only did Beardsley contrast light and dark but also high detail and stark bareness. His female figures were normally tall graceful and powerful woman, whereas his rarer male figures were comparatively diminutive and grotesque.\nBeardsley's emphasis on erotic art is present in many of his later drawings, but most famous were his illustrations for Lysistrata and Oscar Wilde's Salome. Beardsley's style is often compared to Japanese Shunga which no doubt inspired him. Though the story of Lysistrata does include the theme of grossly engorged genitals, the enormous genitals in his ink drawings for Lysistrata were a common theme in Shunga art.\nLysistrata was a Greek comedy written in 411BC by Aristophanes. The story line revolves around the women of Greece attempting to bring a peaceful end to the Peloponnesian War by depriving their partners of sex until they agreed to end the war peacefully. Beardsely's drawings show men of the war with enormously engorged penises due to their wives' chastity.\nThese erotic drawings, among many others, were considered too obscene for polite society, which even Aubrey Beardsley himself accepted in the end. One of his last acts after converting to Catholicism was to plead with his publisher to \"destroy all copies of Lysistrata and bad drawings...by all that is holy all obscene drawings.\" His publisher, Leonard Smithers, not only ignored Beardsley wishes, but continued to sell reproductions and outright forgeries of Beardsley's work.", "label": "No"}
{"text": "He Had A Hunch Something Was Hidden, So He Takes Out Metal Detector, Finds Rare Black Box\nWouldn't it be cool to be an archeologist? If you have ever found yourself dreaming of finding treasures in the Earth, you can live vicariously through Dr. Tones in Dirt Fishin’ America. He had a hunch something was hidden, so he took out his metal detector and finds a rare black box. In the short video featured on All Tips Ideas, we see the people in Dirt Fishin' America pull several interesting artifacts out of the ground. With metal detectors and digging tools in hand, they head off to ghost towns and surrounding areas where camps were set up to find items that may have been left behind. Sometimes they find something quite big like the black box from Boise, Idaho. These black boxes were given to people by banks who wanted their business. People would store their money in the locked black box and then take it to the bank to deposit it. The black box was found by one of the guys in Dirt Fishin' America and it was a nice piece of history for them to find. They were also able to find an old Chinese coin and a weight for a scale, perhaps to weigh out the gold that had been found in the area.\nWhen it comes to waste and recycling, junk metal can stay in the ground for decades, if not centuries. It takes a very long time for metal to decay, and so it would be better off recycled into something else so it can be used. There are many ways to recycle metals. You can take them into a metal worker who could possibly use it for a project, or, you could perhaps use it for a project yourself. For items like the ones that they are finding, you could try bringing them into local antique collectors or museums to display for others to look at and potentially purchase. Often antique dealers will pay for the treasures that are found, but it's more often a donation when dealing with a museum. You can always keep your own personal collection to enjoy as well. Waste and recycling methods will usually take waste materials and melt them down into their original form and then add it to other similar metals to make new items. Copper, silver and gold are the most sought after metals and some people specifically only search for precious metals or scrap metals to sell them for a profit.\nIf you would like to try your hand at Dirt Fishin' you could pick up your very own metal detector and get to work, just like Dr. Tones and his crew. It could be one of the new, fun activities to do in your area and find out about your local history in a hands-on way. Other activities to do could be to mine for crystals and semiprecious stones like quartz or amethyst. Sometimes there is a little mine that is open to the public where people can dig for the crystals and then pay for them after. Some people just find out where there could be deposits of stones or artifacts and head out with their tools to find some treasure. The equipment isn't too expensive to purchase either, so if you want to pick up a new hobby, this could be it. Plus, you get to enjoy lots of time outdoors enjoying the sights and sounds of nature.

{"text": "Born on December 10th, 1830, Emily Dickinson was a prolific and reclusive poet whose writing ranged from descriptive and observational to introspective and theoretical and touched on themes of flowers, death, and religion. Though very few of her works circulated during her life, over 1,800 poems hand-bound into “fascicles” were discovered in her room after her death. These pieces had unique punctuation and were unbound and arranged chronologically for their first publication, with standardized punctuation added to replace the dashes Dickinson frequently used. However, several researchers have worked to reconstruct the original fascicles and republish Dickinson’s poems with the original punctuation.

Brooks, herself an influential and acclaimed poet, made extensive annotations in most books that she read. This was especially true for works of poetry, in which Brooks would go so far as to rewrite lines in her own and other writers’ poems in the margins.

{"text": "Lecture date: 20 Sep 2011\nDe Waal argues that morality is older than religion. All religion did was appropriate innate human nature. Among people who do not believe in evolution, many contest this view. In the US, where De Waal now lives, Creationists believe that God created man, and that we only have morality because of God. Even some American scientists claim that Moral Law cannot be explained and will never be explained by evolutionary biology.\nThis does not prevent Social Darwinists from applying so-called Darwinist ideas (survival of the fittest) to society: “if you can’t afford it, tough.” But De Waal argues that the approach of these Social Darwinists is incorrect: it does not correctly reflect either what Darwin proved or our true nature as humans. If our ancestors had not cooperated millions of years ago, we would not be where we are today.\nSince Darwin, the morality debate has divided the world of biology into two camps: cooperation – the outcome of natural selection – is seen as a result either of being nasty by nature or of being innately social. The Veneer Theory (the accepted Darwinist view from the 1970s until 2000) argues that morality is a departure from nature, uniquely human and calculated. Humans are fundamentally nasty at the core with a moral veneer. Morality is all about the pay-off, altruism is hypocritical and the key question is “What’s in it for me?”\nDe Waal used a Monty Python sketch from the 1970s to illustrate this view, which he considers narrow and outdated. For example, science now proves (through brain scans) that humans derive pleasure from merely anticipating helping others. This would appear to suggest that we are somehow pre-programmed to reach out to others, which leads us to the second theory: Evolved Morality. Darwin and De Waal believe that morality is a product of evolution, continuous with other animals and emotionally based. Humans are fundamentally social animals with innate morality. Since 2000, Darwinists view humans as super-cooperators.\nTo illustrate his findings, De Waal shared some findings of his research, starting with the position of humans in the evolutionary chain. Humans descend from a long line of group-living primates. DNA now proves we are more closely related to chimpanzees than gorillas. However, most scientists still prefer to believe otherwise. Is it because they are uncomfortable about the aggressive side of chimpanzees? This is also portrayed in popular culture – take the recent blockbuster Planet of the Apes. De Waal points out that although chimps do fight and kill each other, they also reconcile (and need eye contact during reconciliation just like humans); they care for each other in social groups; they laugh and use facial expressions (the subject of De Waal’s first book in 1982, Chimpanzee Politics) in much the same way that we do; and like humans and other apes, they commonly show empathy.\nEmpathy starts with synchronisation, which is ancient and exists throughout nature: fish do it, birds do it and humans do it. We are the most synchronised beings on earth – dancing, walking, even following our leaders. Yawn contagion exists in humans and chimps, and yawning is related to empathy. Psychology (one of the subjects De Waal teaches) tends to view empathy one-sidedl, while De Waal sees empathy as the synchronisation of two channels: the primary/emotional channel (we mirror another’s physical behavior, sad/sad, happy/happy, cry/cry – human babies do this from birth) and the cognitive channel (perspective taking, self/other distinction, and the ability to offer consolation).\nLike humans, chimps recognise themselves in a mirror. But is this true of other empathic animals? Elephants display strong prosocial behavior, as a film of adult elephants rescuing a stranded baby elephant proved. So De Waal introduced an elephant to an appropriately elephant-size mirror and proved that elephants recognise themselves too. What does this tell us? that empathy and self-recognition go together and result in smart responses: doing the right thing in the right circumstances.\nAnother experiment with elephants showed that they work together and freeload, again similar to humans. Research conducted 10 years ago with Capuchin monkeys revealed that they are sensitive to fairness. If a pair of monkeys working on the same task were rewarded differently, they protested. Inequity aversion (an irrational/emotional reaction once believed unique to humans) is sensitivity to effort. Through his research, de Waal has proved that morality (reconciliation, empathy and consolation, self-awareness, altruism, cooperation and reciprocity, and fairness) comes naturally to a great variety of animals, including humans.\nHis conclusion: Darwin was right. Morality is deeply seated in primates. It is emotionally driven, involving ancient brain areas and gut feeling. Fairness and justice are innate to humans, and we developed morality as a means of survival.\nDownload the interview (mp3)\nAbout the speaker\nDr. Frans B. M. de Waal is a Dutch/American biologist and primatologist known for his work on the behavior and social intelligence of primates. His first book, Chimpanzee Politics (1982), compared the schmoozing and scheming of chimpanzees involved in power struggles with that of human politicians. His scientific work has been published in hundreds of technical articles in journals such as Science, Nature, Scientific American, and onther publications specialised in animal behaviour.\nHis popular books — translated into many languages — have made him one of the world’s most visible primatologists. His latest books are Our Inner Ape (2005, Riverhead) and The Age of Empathy (2009, Harmony). De Waal is C. H.

{"text": "Reading this, I’m fascinated by the use of a cloud chamber as a conceptual analogy for Abstract\nExpressionism. I am also interested in the idea of a scientific demonstration to illustrate the work of an artist.\n‘In discussing the action paintings of Jackson Pollock, Brad (a student) set up a visual and conceptual analogy through performance art. Constructing a cloud chamber as it is used in a physics laboratory to track the movement of sub-atomic particles being released from small amounts of radioactive material, he placed an isotope (radium) upon the head of a pin. Imbedded in a cork, the pin was suspended in the cloud chamber below a small piece of alcohol-soaked cloth. Brad sealed the cloud chamber onto a metal plate, which was then placed on a block of dry ice. Next, the intensified light of a slide projector was projected though the chamber. The alcohol condensed and formed a cloud layer over the cold metal plate. As subatomic particles dispersed from the isotope and passed through the cloud, they created additional condensation through their paths, thus making their movement visible. Brad’s non-art gesture in the art history class provided a metaphor by which to understand Pollock’s dynamic movement and drips of paint as an entropic process where matter is continually dispersed in nature.’\n‘Brad’s use of a cloud chamber from the physics laboratory to reveal particle dispersion as a metaphor of Jackson Pollock’s action paintings… represent examples of live conundrums…‘\nThe word entropy and it’s usage here is the most interesting to me. The word itself can have many meanings. I would say the meaning here is:\n(A British Dictionary definition) A lack of pattern or organization; disorder\n- (on a macroscopic scale) a function of thermodynamic variables, as temperature, pressure, or composition, that is a measure of the energy that is not available for work during a thermodynamic process. A closed system evolves toward a state of maximum entropy.\n- (in statistical mechanics) a measure of the randomness of the microscopic constituents of a thermodynamic system. Symbol: S.\n(in data transmission and information theory) a measure of the loss of information in a transmitted signal or message.\n(in cosmology) a hypothetical tendency for the universe to attain a state of maximum homogeneity in which all matter is at a uniform temperature (heat death)\na doctrine of inevitable social decline and degeneration.\nSince Pollock learnt to ‘curveball his drips’ – he had a control over his paintings – they were visually chaotic to the untrained eye, but, I assume, to him, he could describe every choice and mark he made. This, again, reminds me of Joyce describing ‘Finnegan’s Wake’ – Despite Joyce’s revolutionary techniques, the author repeatedly emphasized that the book was neither random nor meaningless; with Ellmann quoting the author as having stated: “I can justify every line of my book.”\nThen, we see this quote from Pollock himself:\nWith experience it seems to be possible to control the flow of paint, to a great extent, and I don’t use – I don’t use the accident – ’cause I deny the accident.. ..it’s quite different from working, say, from a still life where you set up objects and work directly from them. I do have a general notion of what I’m about and what the results will be. I approach painting in the same sense as one approaches drawing, that is, it’s direct.\n“William Rubin: ‘Actually, Pollock’s work was incredibly, highly controlled. And it took him years to perfect the technique’…’People might say: ‘Anyone can pour paint,’ well that might be true. But, anyone can go up to a piano and push the note ‘c,’ and your ‘c’ will be as good as Rubinstein’s or Horowitz’s. And by the same token, if you spill a little paint, that’s going to be as good as Pollock’s for just that little spill. What makes Horowitz, or Rubinstein is the succession of accents, and the control and and interrelations of these accents as they come one after another. That is what we call the ‘touch’ of the pianist. But the (single) ‘tone’ is the same for you and for Pollock’…”\nI’m interested about this. All I would say is a pianist has to learn to sight read, and play something that is already set accurately. I could write a piece, and hear someone play it to me, and know when a wrong note has been played. It wouldn’t just be me who could distinguish that a ‘wrong note’ had been played – it would be most musicians with well-trained ears.\nCould we have put Pollock to the test to see if his drips were really incredibly ‘controlled?’ If he, indeed, could ‘flick paint with the accuracy of a cowboy with a lasso’ – we could have him set the positions on a large canvas and ask him to drop the paint in these small places. Pollock would ‘pre-set’ these positions, then paint them in order. I feel like I’d be doing a sort of James Randi test on Pollock!\nThis would be a move towards a truer equivalence between sight reading and Abstract Expressionism.\nIs it a false equivocation? You could say one is particularly disciplined, with each note being played back perfectly – modern art is a relaxation of the idea that you need to ‘learn a craft with vigorous discipline over decades’… Hmm……\nPerhaps I’m wrong! I’m just thinking about it…", "label": "No"}

My thought was as long as they give credit to the past, is it a big deal? Then the fact was brought up about money and intellectual property. How people want others to pay for the use of their “original” idea. Are the precious songs or material actually original or were they inspired by something else in the past? I can see both sides of the argument. Many people work very hard to produce their own materials and do not see any profit from their work. While the other side of Aaron Schult’s argument is we should share and connect to help grow our world.\nSo what does this mean for me as a teacher?

Give the deck to a Volunteer to shuffle, and afterwards have the Volunteer take the top 12 cards and give you the rest. Sometime during the next step you should sneak a peek at what the bottom card is in the rest-of-the deck. This can best be done by holding your hand casually so the bottom card is face-up enough for you to see, but it looks like you’re just holding them up before placing them down at the end of the next step.\nThe Volunteer should then look at their 12 cards, not showing them to you, and pick any four of them. [This is a good time to be glancing at the bottom card in the pile you hold in your hand!] Those four get laid face-up in four separate piles on the table, and the poor unchosen eight get put face down in another pile. You put the rest of the deck on top of that pile.\nNow think a moment, perhaps idly shuffling the top bunch of cards in the pile [just not the bottom 9], and say that you are going to have the Volunteer lay out some cards and you will predict the last one. Concentrate, and then write the name of the bottom card that you so sneakily looked at before on a slip of paper, fold it before the Volunteer can read it, and give it to the Volunteer for safekeeping. Also give the Volunteer the remaining pile of 48 cards.\nNow the Volunteer should look at each of the face-up cards, start with that number, and place cards face-down on each while counting up to 10. For example, if one of the cards is a 7 then the Volunteer would place 3 cards face-down on top, counting “8, 9, 10″. Picture cards count as 10 already, so no cards would be placed on top of those. Be sure that you can still see the original face-up cards.\nWhen all four face-up cards have piles on them, have the Volunteer add the values of the face-up cards. For example, if the cards were a 7, a King, an ace, and a 4 then the total would be 7+10+1+4=22. The Volunteer should count off that many cards face-down from the top of the remaining deck, and then turn over the very last card (the 22nd card, in the case above). Have the Volunteer then look at the folded paper that you wrote on earlier, and Lo and Behold you’ve predicted that very card! Woo hoo!\nLike yesterday’s trick, this one is a variation from card-trick.com. Thanks site!", "label": "No"}

{"text": "Depending upon cause and pattern in which the bone breaks, fractures have been classified into different categories. Not only this helps physicians to communicate better but also to plan the treatment and gauge the prognosis. Today we would discuss open and closed fractures.\nFractures could be either closed fractures or open fractures. These were previously called simple or compound fractures.\nA simple fracture by definition, is the one where the fracture hematoma does not communicate with the surroundings.\nWhat does that mean?\nIt means that the blood that is collected after the fracture is collected in the closed space formed by tissues around the bone and is not communicating with external environment. But if the same fracture is accompanied by a external wound which is continuous with the fracture hematoma (means the fracture hematoma is no more closed, it can communicate to exterior now because the tissues surrounding have also been injured and allow a passage to be formed where blood can trickle to outside.\nA mere presence of a wound does not make a fracture an open fracture. There should be some continuity between this wound and fracture inside. However, that needs a trained eye to differentiate between the two.\nFor all practical purposes, all fractures with a wound over the skin should be treated as open fractures, unless proved otherwise.\nIn a similar fashion, a fracture may also communicate with the internal cavity, such as abdomen. These are also called open fractures. It commonly happens in fracture of pelvic bones.\nThere are two ways in which a fracture might become open fracture. Either the trauma, usually high velocity may damage the external tissue that surrounds the bone and lay a path for communication. This commonly happens in missile injuries or high velocity trauma.\nIn other case, the spikes of broken bone may pierce the skin and other tissues from inside and lay a communication path.\nA open fracture may have a wound size ranging from a pin prick to complete baring of the bone. Open injuries have been further classified according to their severity and helps the treating doctor to plan the treatment and measure the prognosis.\nDo not get deceived by the size of the wound accompanying the fracture. All open injuries, whether a prick or bigger wound, by all means are surgical emergencies in contrast to closed where only a few are surgical emergencies and can be managed for sometime just by splinting.After providing primary splintage, these patients should be rushed to nearby trauma center/ hospital where proper management can be done.\nRemember! Earlier you take these patients to the hospital, better it would be for them.\nUntil there is a severe soft tissue loss, most of the open fractures have a fate that is almost equivalent to their closed counterparts. But because it is open, there would be increased chances of contamination and infection.\nThat is why they are the surgical emergencies.\nTerms open and closed are also used in dislocations of the joint and impart similar meaning like open fractures and closed fractures.\nGet more stuff on Musculoskeltal Health\nSubscribe to our Newsletter and get latest publications on Musculoskeletal Health your email inbox.\nThank you for subscribing.", "label": "No"}
{"text": "What is PBIS?Positive Behavior Interventions and Support (PBIS) is a systems approach to enhancing the capacity of schools to support and educate ALL STUDENTS. It is a proactive approach to school-wide discipline that is based on three levels of prevention/intervention to address the needs of all students. PBIS is not a curriculum, intervention, or practice, but rather a framework or approach for assisting school personnel in adopting and organizing evidence-based behavioral interventions into an integrated continuum that enhances academic and social behavior outcomes for all students.\nMission:The mission of the Dunleith PBIS team is to foster and promote a safe and positive school environment that enhances student learning through teaching and recognizing positive behavior.\n- The staff of Dunleith Elementary School believes that students learn best in a structured, orderly environment.\nWe further believe that the education of the child is the responsibility of the school with the support of the parents.\nTherefore, students are expected to conduct themselves in a manner which is conducive to learning and in a manner that does not interfere with the teacher's right to teach or other students' right to learn.\nWe believe, through self-discipline, students learn to accept responsibility for their decisions and the resulting consequences.\nOverviewPositive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS) is an evidence-based, data-driven framework proven to reduce disciplinary incidents, increase a school’s sense of safety and support improved academic outcomes. More than 19,000 U.S. schools are implementing PBIS and saving countless instructional hours otherwise lost to discipline.The premise of PBIS is that continual teaching, combined with acknowledgement or feedback of positive student behavior will reduce unnecessary discipline and promote a climate of greater productivity, safety and learning. PBIS schools apply a multi-tiered approach to prevention, using disciplinary data and principles of behavior analysis to develop school-wide, targeted and individualized interventions and supports to improve school climate for all students.

{"text": "RELATED TERMS: Story (fabula) and Plot (sjuzet or sjuzhet)\n“the world has always been in the middle of things in unruly and practical conversation, full of action and structured by a startling array of actants and of networking and unequal collectives.” (Donna Haraway, The Promises of Monsters)\nMeir Sternberg (1992) counts Aristotle as taking the earliest and least explicit, but possibly the least unreasonable, anti-chronological position on narrative. This is due to his subordination of events to effects. Aristotle’s Poetics views the arrangement of events in functional terms, as a means to an end, or, more properly, in teleological terms: poetic ends determine or explain means, so as to inform their form. This teleo-logic runs all the way through from Aristotle’s universals of art to his plot rules and variables, silently incorporating temporal (dis)order.\nThus, at the most general level of teleology, the definition of art as mimesis finds its rationale for Aristotle in the universal pleasure felt in things imitated. As Aristotle’s argument descends from art through literary narrative or fiction to tragedy, it progressively refers specific forms and options of mimesis to their specific informing pleasurable effects, kinds of structure to kinds of pleasure, such as unity, surprise, catharsis.\nTwo of those steps, which concern the relation between chronology and teleology, bear further examination. The first lies within the arrangement of the “whole” (holos); and the second lies within the disarrangements open to “plot” (mythos).\nThe analysis of action outlined in the Poetics, starts by deriving the need for events to form a “whole”, which is marked by its beginning-to-middle-to-end (chrono-)logical concatenation, from the law of poetic unity. The whole will then cohere as a necessary or probable sequence between well-defined poles of human fortune and experience.\nAristotle’s “wholeness” opposes poetic structure to the mere alignment of events in history writing (chronicle, biography), with its allegedly misguided equivalents in history-like epic, because they abandon the chrono-logic of action for the chronology of an era, a life, or some other time-span covered in serial fashion to yield a “sum” or “total” of episodes.\nFor Aristotle, then, the opposition of integrative “whole” to additive “sum” in event linkage is all the more principled and value-laden because it ranges from the shape of chronology (tight versus loose) to its intelligibility (universal versus particular), from formal and perceptual aesthetics to ontological sense and coherence.\nThe next step advances from “whole” toward “plot,” no longer uniform but multiform in sequence and, ideally, even disordered for a time out of wholeness, again on poetic grounds.\nChrono-logic bends, temporarily at least, in response to a stronger, more determinate teleo-logic. Since tragedy and high epic aim for pity and fear, such effects are best produced when the events come on the reader/audience by surprise. Given this demand for surprise, the “whole” action needs to be “complicated”, i.e. in effect dechronologised, into “plot”, by way of discovery and/or reversal (Sternberg, 1992: 476).\nThe “complex” plot outranks the “simple” plot for Aristotle not because it breaks or deforms the natural temporality that the other preserves, but because its broken temporality best serves, indeed maximizes, the effect common to both types as tragic plots: catharsis.\nLike the fiat of chrono-logising the action, the recommended dechrono-logising of the actual dramatic or epic presentation serves a purpose beyond itself: the teleology remains in control across forms and levels of sequence.\nTo become viable, indeed a virtue or a clear gain, disordering in these mimetic genres must involve the twisting of the “whole” into complex “plot” movement in the service of determinate and determinative tragic ends: catharsis, above all.\nWhile the Aristotelian argument for the complex plot may well be found wanting, its logic may not. The positive thrust of this (teleo)logic culminates in the recommendation of deformed-and-reformed sequence for intensity. Given the first premise, all the rest follows by a long chain of reasoning from desired poetic end to necessary or contributory means: from pity and fear to surprise effect; from there to discovery (anagnorisis) and reversal (peripeteia); and from there to the twisting or “complication” of the chrono-logical “whole” (holos) into (de-chrono-logised) optimal “plot” (mythos).\nThus, as Meir Sternberg (1992: 479) explains the matter, the key antithesis for Aristotle’s conception of narrative is that between the chrono-logical “whole” (holos) and the optimal “plot” (mythos), the former twisted or “complicated” into the latter to form a complex plot, which is Aristotle’s preference because it better delivers, through plot surprise, the required effect upon the audience, ultimately catharsis.\nSternberg (1992: 481) notes that it is Aristotelian wholes that “begin at the beginning,” not plots. Plots may begin anywhere. Indeed, plots should preferably begin at a point later than the chronological beginning. This assists in developing both complexity and compactness. Furthermore, Sternberg continues, Horace’s in medias res originally urges the epic poet to select a coherent action, for example, that of The Iliad, from a loose extra-literary chronicle, for example, the Trojan War. The Horatian advice, then, bears on the ordering of the whole into unity, not on its disordering into late-before-early plot. It therefore derives, rather than diverges, from Aristotle.\nSternberg, M. (1992). Telling in time (II): chronology, teleology, narrativity. Poetics Today, 13 (3), 463–541.

{"text": "With more and more of us using our mobiles, tablets and computers on a daily basis, it also seems that vision-related problems are on the rise. Although researchers suggest that staring at screens won’t cause permanent damage, frequent use can exacerbate problems with eyesight, from eye strain to more severe conditions such as presbyopia.\nWhat is presbyopia?\nPresbyopia is an age-related long-sightedness caused by the thickening and loss of elasticity of the lens of the eye. The onset of presbyopia normally comes from around 40 years of age and unlike environmental-related conditions, it cannot be prevented.\nIt’s believed that presbyopia is caused by the proteins in our lens breaking down through age, hardening the lens and reducing elasticity. These problems extend to the surrounding muscle tissues, which makes it harder for the eye to focus close up.\nAs we are more heavily reliant on screens for general reading and day to day tasks, it could be that conditions such as presbyopia are being exacerbated. Worldwide, around 1 billion people suffer from presbyopia, however research from the World Health Organization has predicted that 1.4 billion people worldwide suffering from presbyopia by 2020, to 1.8 billion people by 2050.\nHow presbyopia affects everyday life\nFor those of us who frequently use screens, symptoms may include:\n- Eye discomfort or strain (ESI)\n- Itchy eyes\n- Dry or watering eyes\n- Burning sensations\n- Changes in colour perception\n- Blurred vision\n- Difficulty focusing\nThese symptoms are similar to those of presbyopia – people may develop eye strain, headaches, feel fatigued or unable to focus when performing close up work. Those who don’t get the suitable treatment for presbyopia and continue to frequently use screens, could be increasing their impaired vision.\nVision correction for presbyopia\nUncorrected presbyopia can greatly affect the quality of an individual’s everyday life. However your optician will be able to provide the required eye examination and treatment, to allow you to clearly see close up items and carry out normal activities without causing further damage.\nGlasses with bifocal or progressive addition lenses (PALs) are the most commonly used solution. Bifocal glasses provide prescriptions for both near and distance vision. The main part of the lens aids distance vision, and the lower part of the lens allows for close focus. PALs also offer two points of focus but provide a more gradual visual transition between the two, with no visible line between them. Another option for presbyopia is reading glasses, which will simply be worn when performing near work.\nGetting routine eye examinations and the appropriate treatment from your optician is essential to reduce the effects of visual impairment caused by presbyopia.

{"text": "Cooperation = working together independently.\nCollaboration = working together dependently.\nResearchers such as Dillenbourg et al. (1996) and Roschelle and Teasley (1995) agree that it is important to make a distinction between cooperation and collaboration. While cooperative learning can be defined as “working together to accomplish shared goals” (Smith 1995), collaborative learning is “a method that implies working in a group of two or more to achieve a common goal, while respecting each individual’s contribution to the whole” (McInnerney and Robert 2004, 205). Roschelle and Teasley (1995) describe cooperative work as a task that is accomplished by dividing it among participants, where “each person is responsible for a portion of the problem solving,” and they see collaborative work as “the mutual engagement of participants in a coordinated effort to solve the problem together.\"\nThe key difference between these approaches to group work is that cooperation is more focused on working together to create an end product, while successful collaboration requires participants to share in the process of knowledge creation (Dillenbourg et al. 1996; Roschelle and Teasley 1995). In other words, cooperation can be achieved if all participants do their assigned parts separately and bring their results to the table; collaboration, in contrast, implies direct interaction among individuals to produce a product and involves negotiations, discussions, and accommodating others’ perspectives. According to Nelson (2008), cooperation is “a protocol that allows you not to get in each other’s way” as you work. He uses the example of an assembly line and reaches the conclusion that “a cooperative enterprise could in some way be done, as long as you had enough time or other resources, by a single person.”", "label": "No"}

{"text": "Abraham Lincoln could not vote for his own reelection in 1864. His home state of Illinois required all voters to physically present themselves at the polling station in order to exercise their franchise. In the midst of a national emergency—the Civil War—the president of the United States could not leave the capital and thus was effectively disenfranchised.\nVoting rules denied the leader of the nation his right to vote. Voting rules should not similarly disenfranchise Americans during the COVID-19 emergency.\nAlong with Illinois, the states of Indiana, Delaware, New Jersey and Oregon limited the right to vote in the election of 1864 only to those who physically went to the polls. This meant that many of the soldiers fighting to preserve the union were disenfranchised just like their commander in chief. Seventeen states, however, changed their voting rules to permit one form or another of the “soldier vote” from the field.\nNow is the time to consider if and how we change our rules so that COVID-19 does not disenfranchise Americans. Two facts are undeniable: we are in the midst of a national crisis of indeterminate length, and every American has the right and responsibility to cast their vote. Now is the time to start preparing for COVID-19’s impact on the November 3, 2020 election.\nIn the current emergency, there is a national policy against large gatherings. If you do go out, six feet of social distancing is recommended. Queuing in long lines at polling stations in order to enter a small enclosure just vacated by someone of unknown health is not in keeping with prevailing medical advice.\nHopefully, the COVID-19 crisis will have run its course by November—although increasingly we are being warned to expect its return in the fall even if it does lessen in the summer. Our government was apparently unprepared for the novel coronavirus despite warnings; let us not repeat that again when it comes to the election. With election day eight months away, what are we doing now to prepare to protect our citizens’ right to vote (and the health and safety of poll workers)?\nTwo days after the November 1864 election, Lincoln reflected that “until now it has not been known to the world that this [election] was a possibility.” As if speaking to us today, he said, “We cannot have free government without elections; and if the rebellion could force us to forego or postpone a national election, it might fairly have claimed to have already conquered and ruined us.”\nOur test is similar: could COVID-19 “conquer and ruin” our defense of the most basic democratic right? Will the world’s bedrock of democracy protect the key to democracy? Thus far this year, multiple states have delayed their primary elections. There is much less flexibility insofar as the national election. Congress in 1845 established the first Tuesday after the first Monday in November as the date of the general election. The 20th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, guiding off that schedule, mandated that the new Congress convene on January 3 and the President be inaugurated on January 20.\nThe message here is simple: we have an eight-month head start. Let’s not treat protecting the exercise of the democratic franchise as something that sneaks up on us. Denying the potential problem or waiting to see whether COVID-19 reappears in the fall before we act is not a solution. While some complain voting by mail and other solutions will cause confusion and the potential for fraud, one sure way to assure problems is to ignore until too late the reality we can now readily identify.\nSenators Ron Wyden (D-OR) and Amy Klobuchar (D-MN), along with 24 other senators have indicated they intend to introduce the Natural Disaster and Emergency Ballot Act of 2020 to allow for national vote-by-mail as well as the expansion of early voting. That all the sponsors are Democrats illustrates how the issue has often been perceived as partisan. Yet 33 states currently give their citizens the right to vote-by-mail without any extenuating excuse. Colorado, Washington State, and Oregon have all-mail elections.\nThe effect of opening the franchise to soldiers in the field was partisan in 1864 as well. The Democrats felt they would benefit from the soldier vote. After all, their candidate was former Union commander General George B. McClellan and surely his former troops would stand with him. “We are as certain of two-thirds of that vote for General McClellan as the sun shines,” one Democratic newspaper publisher predicted.[i] Lincoln expected to lose. He even had his cabinet sign a pledge to continue to work to preserve the union in the period after his defeat but before the inauguration. In the end, however, it was the Republican Lincoln who won 55 percent of the popular vote, including 75 percent of the soldier vote.\nLincoln’s concern that the national crisis “could force us to forego or postpone” the election made him stand firm to protect it. He—and the Republican Congress—could have, but did not, change the date of the election. [ii]\nUltimately, the democratic right to vote was protected in 17 states because leaders stepped up and made the statutory changes necessary to assure citizens their franchise. Now is the time to anticipate the challenge that will confront us in only a few months and act once again to preserve the franchise.\n“You cannot escape the responsibility of tomorrow by evading it today,” Lincoln once observed.

{"text": "In January through April 2005 the First Nations Studies Program at the University of British Columbia hosted a set of eight lectures exploring the issues of land claims in BC and associated governance issues. British Columbia is unusual in Canada in having very few historical treaties. Canadian courts at the close of the 20th century have recognized what First Nations have long known–that, in the absence of treaties, land was never surrendered. In this evolving circumstance, First Nations, governments, and other entities have engaged in several kinds of processes to negotiate differences over land–treaty processes, court cases, and other forms of negotiated settlements. While several excellent academic books address aspects of these situations, this series brings forward the perspectives and expertise of community leaders, lawyers, and others who have been actively involved in crucial aspects of these situations.\nYou can begin exploring this archive through one of the sample topics noted below, or by opening the IVT viewer, clicking on the Session Menu button for short descriptions of the sessions, and exploring the session of your choice (if the IVT does not seem to work properly, see IVT Browser and Troubleshooting Information for help).\nSession 3, which focuses on the court cases that have shaped the legal landscape for land claims in British Columbia, from two lawyers central to them (Land Claims 3,2).\nA snapshot of modern treaties: in 2005 the Nisga’a treaty had been concluded and implementation was underway, and the Tsawassen Treaty, since concluded, was still in progress.

{"text": "What is an EPR, and Does it Even Work?\nby Theresa Christine Johnson on 02/17/2020 | 4 Minute Read\nChances are, you already know what an EPR is—at least, you’ve likely encountered it before whether you realized it or not. Short for “extended producer responsibility,” you’ve seen it and used it with products like car batteries or old television sets. Manufacturers or producers of a particular product get tasked with managing the end of the life cycle for these items. This means they must handle the treatment or disposal of post-consumer products, and with that added responsibility, the overall hope is that they’ll put more consideration into reducing waste from the very beginning by designing a product and packaging with eco-friendliness in mind.\n“Basically, it transfers the cost from either the city, town, or individual themselves who contract to have their waste or recycling picked up to the brand owner who actually puts the product on the market,” explained Victor Bell, US Managing Director of Environmental Packaging International/Lorax Compliance.\nEPRs started in Europe—Sweden, to be exact, in 1990—and today they are mandatory in many countries there, as well as the Middle East. Places like Brazil and Colombia are starting to put EPRs into place, and China and India will have them in 2022. Our northern neighbor, Canada, has heaps of them (reports say at least 200 programs), but it just hasn’t quite caught on here in the good ol’ U. S. of A.\n“One of the difficult things with the United States is it would have to be passed on a state-by-state basis,” Victor said. “There’s also been very strong lobbying against it in the past, but we’re seeing a big change now.”\nAs consumers became more eco-minded than ever before in recent years, big brands decided to make some big promises. By 2025, McDonald’s wants all its packaging to come from renewable, recycled, or certifiable sources. Starbucks has targets for 2030, including shifting to reusable packaging and cutting emissions. Other brands like Unilever, Aldi, and The Estée Lauder Companies have made similar promises—and as those dates close in, brands are trying to find ways to achieve their goals.\n“The only way these major companies can make these commitments is if the infrastructure gets updated, as well as the cost of using it,” Victor stated. That’s where an EPR comes in.\nAn EPR can take many forms, from recycling to a buyback program, but one of the most significant movements in the world of ERP is called eco-modulation. Brands face higher fees on products that are more difficult to recycle or not as good for the environment, whether it be the material or the emissions needed to transport it.\nFor instance, in France—a country Victor called “the king of eco-modulation”—fees are in place for materials like PET packaging using mineral opacifiers, glass with a non-magnetic steel closing system, or reinforced cardboard. At the same time, there are discounts for packaging made from at least 50% recycled material, or switching to mono-materials which make recycling significantly easier.\n“Even if you do advertising or put a certain recycling logo on it,” added Victor. “If you have an ad that includes ‘please recycle,’ then the brand can get another bonus.”\nYou can find a prime example of EPRs at work in Canada, particularly British Columbia, where the EPR only costs $14.55 US dollars per capita. “What they’ve done is they’ve taken over the recycling programs from cities and towns,” Victor explained. “All of the cost of collecting and managing that material is paid for by the fees, which is a pretty low per capita cost. They’ve, in turn, combined material processing facilities and infrastructure to make it more efficient.”\nOver 1,300 companies, from Apple Canada to Procter & Gamble, joined forces to create Recycle BC to carry out residential recycling. At their plants, brands can even test for new materials—such was the case with Keurig when it wanted to switch to a recyclable material for its pods, allowing them to be recycled across the province.\nVictor confessed it took British Columbia a while to reach this point, starting the EPR journey back in 2014. But according to the CSSA Report to Stewards 2019, the material recovery rate is 78.1% in British Columbia. It is the highest recycling rate in the country.\nWill we see mandatory EPRs in place in the United States soon? In January 2020, the California Senate voted against an EPR for beverage companies, but Victor said interest is still growing there, as well as in places like Maine and New York. “We’re already seeing a number of the retailers and brand owners who were leery of EPR, and now they’re more open to embracing it,” he said. I think we're going to see brands leading this effort to move this forward because of their problem.”\n“They know that unless something like this happens, they are not going to be able to meet their goals,” he added.", "label": "No"}
{"text": "By now, you've probably heard the news that fermented foods are great for us, and we should all be eating more of them. But why, exactly?\nShredded cabbage, water, salt. That’s it. You throw them together in a glass jar, and then you add the final ingredient: time. Once the mixture has settled for a while, you might see tiny bubbles beginning to form along the sides of the jar if you look closely enough. If you had a microscope, you’d even see the friendly bacteria latching onto the plant material.\nIf you studied the jar for long enough, you’d see that waves of different bacteria proliferate in the jar over time, releasing byproducts that change the acidity and enzymes inside. And you’d end up with a mixture of your shredded cabbage with lactic acid, some acetic and propionic acid, a cocktail of gases (mainly carbon dioxide), a trace amount of alcohol and aromatic esters. In other words, a fantastic batch of fermented sauerkraut.\nWhat the heck is fermentation?\nFermentation is the process by which carbohydrates, like those in plant material, are converted to acids, gases and/or alcohol. In the case of sauerkraut, the micro-organisms responsible for kicking off the process are lactic acid bacteria (LAB)—a diverse group of bacterial species (mainly Lactobacillus, Leuconostoc and Pediococcus) found naturally on the surface of plants, which produce lactic acid as their main metabolic end product.\nYogurt and some other fermented foods on store shelves are produced in highly controlled environments, so scientists know exactly which strains of bacteria they proffer. But in home fermentation, friendly microbes from the vegetables, the air and the hands of the maker all combine to produce a microbially different batch every time. Although most fermented foods contain strains of bacteria that are potentially beneficial, these live cultures do not fit the accepted definition of a probiotic, since they are simply a random, unnamed mix.\nFermentation is considered very safe, since LAB naturally produce substances that inhibit the growth of food-spoiling bacteria. If you try fermenting at home, however, it’s smart to learn how to tell the difference between benign kahm yeast (a harmless fermentation byproduct) and potentially harmful mold.\nHealthy fermented foods have been eaten for millennia. In the beginning, fermentation was a way to preserve. Human groups throughout history then discovered that certain ways of storing food came with an added bonus: changing the food’s flavor and texture.\nOnly later with advances in microbiology did we come to understand how the bacteria were doing their work in favorite fermented foods like kimchi.\nSo why are fermented foods healthy?\nSince the mix of bacteria in each batch is individual and complex, fermented foods are a difficult subject of controlled laboratory study. What scientists know for sure, however, is that the live cultures in fermented foods are key to their health benefits.\nCertain bacterial strains, which are present to a greater or lesser extent in a serving of fermented food, have distinct health benefits when tested in isolation. In healthy adults, these bacteria can help prevent acute upper respiratory tract infections, as well as urinary tract infections and allergies, and they can lower cardiovascular disease risk.\nYet a fermented food is more than just the sum of its micro-organisms. Some evidence suggests the food matrix may help boost the beneficial health effects. And when it comes to fermented veggies, the fiber they contain could act as a prebiotic and magnify the effects of the good bacteria, helping them proliferate and produce health-boosting short-chain fatty acids.\nStudies have even linked fermented food consumption to mental well-being, with outcomes including lower social anxiety and decreased reactions to negative events, though more comprehensive studies are needed to verify these effects in humans.\nWhat about fermented supplements?\nFermented foods aren’t the only way we can ingest beneficial bacteria. In fact, some research shows that you’d need to eat a whole lot of fermented foods in order to get the dose of bacteria shown to produce health benefits in clinical trials.\nProbiotic supplements offer an easy way to consume well-researched, precise bacteria strains in large quantities. For example, the probiotic Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG, which is commonly found in supplement form, can help with intestinal issues and stimulate immune responses in many people.\nFermented supplements, like fermented vegan proteins and fermented mushrooms, are a bit different. When it comes to making fermented supplements, bacteria can degrade substances like oxalate, phytate and tannins, making some of the nutrients more available. These supplements don’t contain live micro-organisms when you take them.\nWhat are true fermented foods?\nNot all fermented foods contain live organisms when you consume them. In some cases (as in transforming cocoa beans into chocolate), live bacteria are eliminated by the time the food is eaten. In other cases (as in kombucha), the bacteria are alive at the time of consumption. The term “fermented foods” generally refers to those that contain live micro-organisms upon ingestion.\nTrue fermented foods are not shelf-stable, so when you’re buying them from a grocery or health food store, look for them in the refrigerator section. Live cultures should be listed on the label, and the food should have an expiration date clearly marked.\nFermented foods have a long history of use, and they offer so many benefits—for both your health and your taste buds. They represent not just the preservation of a food, but also a moment in time: a microbial snapshot. So what are you waiting for? Dig into that delicious kraut.", "label": "No"}
{"text": "What You Need to Know About Colon Cancer\nAmong cancers that affect both men and women, colorectal cancer (cancer of the colon or rectum) is the third leading cause of cancer deaths in the United States. Every year, about 140,000 Americans are diagnosed with colorectal cancer, and more than 50,000 people die from it. The overall lifetime risk for developing colon cancer is 1 in 20. But the good news is that this disease is highly preventable with proactive screening and management of risk factors.\nWhat are the risk factors?\nYour risk for colorectal cancer may be higher than average if:\n- You or a close relative have had colorectal polyps or colorectal cancer.\n- You have inflammatory bowel disease, Crohn’s disease, or ulcerative colitis.\n- You have a genetic syndrome such as familial adenomatous polyposis (FAP) or hereditary non-polyposis colorectal cancer.\nSpeak with your doctor about when to start screening and how often you should be tested if you think you’re at high risk for colorectal cancer.\nWhat are the symptoms of colorectal cancer?\n- People who have polyps or colorectal cancer don’t always have symptoms, especially at first. Someone could have polyps or colorectal cancer and not know it. If there are symptoms, they may include:\n- Blood in or on your stool (bowel movement).\n- Change in caliber of stool, more narrow stool or constipation.\n- Pains, aches, or cramps in your stomach that don’t go away.\n- Losing weight and you don’t know why.\nIf you have any of these symptoms, talk to your doctor. They may be caused by something other than cancer. However, the only way to know what is causing them is to see your doctor.\nHow can you screen for colorectal cancer?\nScreening tests help prevent colorectal cancer by finding precancerous polyps (abnormal growths) so they can be removed. Screening also finds this cancer early, when treatment can be most effective.\nHow often you need to get screened depends on your risk for colorectal cancer. It also depends on which kind of screening you get. There is more than one kind of screening test for colorectal cancer. Some involve analyzing stool for blood, while other procedures, such as the colonoscopy, provide a detailed look at the interior of the colon. Talk with your doctor about which test is right for you.\nWhat does a colonoscopy entail?\nA colonoscopy entails using a scope to examine the inside of your colon. A colonoscopy uses a long, flexible and slender tube attached to a video camera to monitor to view your entire colon and rectum. If any suspicious areas are found, your doctor can pass surgical tools through the tube to remove polyps.\nColonoscopies are essentially painless. Patients are sedated for comfort while blood pressure, heart rhythm, and oxygen level are closely monitored by an anesthesiologist. Medication may be adjusted throughout the procedure to ensure adequate sedation.\nWhat should I discuss with my doctor?\nVisiting the doctor can be stressful. It helps to have questions written down ahead of time. You may also want to ask a family member or close friend to go with you to take notes.\nBelow are some helpful questions to discuss with you doctor:\n- What is my risk for colorectal cancer?\n- When do you recommend that I start getting tested?\n- How often do I need to get tested?\n- What are the different types of screening tests for colorectal cancer?\n- Which screening test do you recommend? Why?\n- What happens during the screening? How do I prepare?\n- Are there any dangers or side effects of screening?\n- How long will it take to get the results?\n- What can I do to reduce my risk of colorectal cancer?\nStarling’s Department of Gastroenterology is here to address your questions and concerns. To schedule an appointment or screening, please contact us at (860) 224-6249 . Your primary care provider can also be a valuable resource to discuss risk factors and screening options.", "label": "No"}
{"text": "Alexander Paterson, youth work and prison reform. Alexander Paterson (1884-1947) had a profound influence on social policy in Britain. Now remembered as a prison reformer, he was also a key figure in the establishment of TOC H and an influential figure in boys’ club work. Paterson’s book Across the Bridges (1911) was also an important exploration of poverty and social conditions of the dockland districts of South London. Here we explore his contribution.\ncontents: introduction · alexander paterson and the oxford and bermondsey club · across the bridges · toc h · alexander paterson and prison reform · conclusion · further reading and bibliography · links · how to cite this article\n‘Sir Alexander (Alec) Henry Paterson (1884-1947) was born on November 20, 1884 in Bowden, Cheshire, attended Bowden College, and went up to the University of Oxford in 1902. From an early age he appeared to be set for a ‘career’ in (Liberal) politics. Clement Atlee recalls him coming up to his college (University College) in his second year. He has commented, ‘Although younger than most of those of his year he very soon became an outstanding influence in the life of the college… [H]is greatness consisted essentially in the power of his personality’ (writing in Ruck 1951: 7). At Oxford Paterson took honours in Greats and became an officer of the Union (the other officers included William Temple and Herbert du Parcq) (Ruck 1951: 12).\nIn his freshman year at Oxford Paterson encountered Dr John Stansfeld who had pioneered the Oxford Medical Mission (later known as the Oxford and Bermondsey Club) and a range of boys’ work in Bermondsey. He invited Paterson to visit and to give the Mission a fortnight’s trial – and Paterson was moved by what he saw. As Ronald Selby Wright (1951: 28) put it, Alexander Paterson became the leader of ‘a very small but quite remarkable group’ at university.\nIt was a group of men whose true greatness was partly to be found in their almost deliberate obscurity; only the inner circle know how much they have given to the world at large. Barclay Baron, George Troup, Donald Hankey, Roland Phillips, for example with Alec Paterson himself as the king of them all, are known and loved in the wide yet reserved world of Boys’ Clubs, and Toe H. and Social Reform. Yet even among those who most benefited by them, so often their names are but names: and that I submit surely is part of their greatness. Not one of them sought fame, but all of them earned it; none sought riches, but how great are the riches they have bestowed on the world! They did not talk about fellowship and service : they served their fellows without hope or desire of reward—except the only reward really worth having—that of knowing that they did God’s will. They served their fellows without fear of the consequences. (op. cit.)\nAlexander (Alec) Patterson was to live in Bermondsey for 21 years – and was in touch with the work there throughout his life. On leaving Oxford he took up a minor Civil Service post. Initially he lived at the Mission – but he soon moved out into a two-roomed tenement close by ‘in the worst building he could find and in the roughest riverside street’. There he fought ‘an unequal battle with vermin’ and became ‘will-nilly, the adviser of his teaming neighbours and the godfather of many of their children’ (Baron 1952: 163). He also gave up his post in the Civil Service and became a supernumerary, unpaid, teacher in a local elementary school (using his savings and a gift from his mother). He was later to write about the experiences of local people in moving terms in Across the Bridges (1911) and to call upon the better-off to take action.\nNot surprisingly given the connections of many of the residents of the Oxford and Bermondsey club, Alexander Paterson’s growing expertise around and knowledge of the lives and children and young men became known to Herbert Samuel who was drafting the Children Bill (which became the Children Act 1908). As a result Paterson wrote more than twenty amendments to the draft – all of which appeared in the final Act.\nAlec Paterson’s concern with the prison system also dated from around this time. One of the club members ‘Jimmy’ (who lived in considerable poverty) killed his young wife (in 1906) (later described by Paterson in Ruck 1951: 32). Paterson understood the circumstances, and viewed ‘Jimmy’ as a friend. He fought on his behalf throughout his trial, stood by him during his long imprisonment and looked after his baby. He also paid for Jimmy and his child to emigrate on his release. Baron comments ‘It was this love for men, this capacity for walking beside them, linked with a bold imagination and a stubborn will, which he now dedicated to the reform of the criminal system and of the penal system’ (1952: 165). In 1909 Winston Churchill, then Home Secretary, recruited Paterson and to discuss with discharged convicts their futures. It was the first experiment in after-care for convicts. He also became Assistant Director of the Borstal Association (in 1908).\nDuring this time he remained deeply involved in the work of the Oxford and Bermondsey Club. As war approached along with a number of others involved in the club he joined the local territorials (22nd Battalion of the Queen’s) and was soon in action. He was twice recommended for a VC, was badly wounded when rescuing a comrade and eventually came home a Captain with a Military Cross. As a result of his injuries he was in constant pain which, according to Baron (1952: 166) he suffered in silence. Along with some other members of the Oxford and Bermondsey Club (notably Barclay Baron) Alec Paterson was to become involved in the formation of TOC H as a movement.\nAfter the war he joined the Ministry of Labour for a short while (at first as a Principal Officer) but then, in 1922, was appointed Commissioner of Prisons and Director of Convict Prisons. His appointment didn’t go without comment – there was significant opposition to his progressive ideas. He believed that prisons should focus on rehabilitation rather than punishment. One of his famous statements was that : ‘Men are sent to prison as a punishment, not for punishment’ (quoted by Ruck 1951:13). Alexander Paterson had a major impact on the direction and conduct of Borstals and upon the work of the prison system as a whole.\nAlexander Paterson retired as Commissioner in 1946. and was knighted in 1947. However, as Baron comments, he was ‘utterly worked out in body and mind’. He died on died November 7, 1947 a few weeks before the passing of the Criminal Justice Act that bore many of his ideas. Paterson Park, Bermondsey was named after him.\nBarclay Baron (1952: 162) has commented that John Stansfeld and Alexander Paterson were drawn together at once:\nBoth headstrong, both prolific in new ideas that could not easily be reconciled, they argued often enough but never came to into any conflict of consequence. For the Doctor respected the powers of the younger man as much as he loved him, and the lieutenant was always loyal to his chief.\nWhen Paterson saw Bermondsey he was ‘conquered’:\nHe came as a Unitarian, militant in this as in all the principles he held, but a short spell alongside the Doctor changed this deep-founded family tradition: ‘You simply can’t walk the streets of Bermondsey with him’, he said one night to a friend, ‘and not know that Jesus is Divine.’ (Baron 1952: 162)\nBarclay Baron (op. cit.) goes on to comment, ‘There was no trace of theological argument about this but a conviction by which a man could, and did, live’.\nAt the Oxford Medical Mission, boys’ club work was growing quickly. The Mission had taken over an old corset factory (134 Abbey Street) in 1903. Downstairs was a dispensary, upstairs on the first floor a boys’ club. There were also rooms for resident missionaries on the top floor. John Stansfeld’s visits to Oxford Colleges had attracted a remarkable collection of young men to Bermondsey to visit. There is a picture of the officers at a summer camp (at Horndon in 1907) organized by Stansfeld. The group includes Geoffrey Fisher (later Archbishop of Canterbury), Alec Paterson (later Prison Commissioner); Barclay Baron (a key figure in the organization of Toc H) and Stansfeld himself. Other people associated with the work in the first two decades of the twentieth century included William Temple (Archbishop of Canterbury), Clement Attlee (later of the Labour Party and Prime Minister), ‘Tubby’ Clayton (who founded TocH) and Basil Henriques and Waldo Eagar – both later central figures in the boys’ club movement. The Mission was to move out of medical work (with the departure of Stansfeld) and to focus on boys’ and men’s work. First known as the Oxford and Bermondsey Mission, then as the Oxford and Bermondsey Boys’ Club its work and those associated with it had a profound effect on the boys’ club movement (for more on this see the piece on <href=”#club”> Stansfield).\nPaterson was never warden of the Oxford and Bermondsey Club but was a constant presence and dominant influence once Stansfeld had left. This wasn’t always a comfortable experience for the wardens as Eagar has noted. W. McG Eagar was a resident before the First World War and took over as Warden after. Alec Paterson questioned Eagar’s efforts to involve the Oxford and Bermondsey Club with the London Federation of Boys’ Clubs and similar other bodies. He also ‘strongly disapproved and held aloof from the subsequent formation of the NABC [National Association of Boys Clubs]’ (Eagar 1953 236n). However, other wardens such as Baron (1952) have spoken in glowing terms of Paterson’s influence. Basil Henriques was also to later talk about his first encounter with Paterson:\nIt would be foolish of me to try and describe his extraordinary magnetic personality, none of which he has lost in the past twenty-five years. With great vision, with great humour, and with great originality, the man emphasised what I had got from his book [Across the Bridges – see below]. ‘There is a spot of work to be done in Bermondsey; you might as well come and do it’ – no pressure, no undue urging, but the kind of impression: ‘Well, if you haven’t got the decency in you don’t trouble about it’. (Henriques 1937: 20-1)\nAfter Paterson had died, Henriques was to describe him as ‘the greatest inspiration of my life’ (Loewe 1946: 14).\nAlec (Alexander) Paterson became convinced of the need to communicate something of the poverty, bad housing and waste experienced by local people. He was also keen to share something of the warmth and potential of south London life. His object was to stir an ‘unheeding world’ and ‘shame its conscience for heedlessness of these things hitherto’ (Baron 1952: 163). The result was Across the Bridges (published in 1911). It’s committed, insightful and sympathetic account of local life and experiences (especially concerning children and young people), and his call for personal action hit a chord. Alexander Paterson used stories and observations to make his points and there was little of the rhetoric and moralizing that infected many accounts by other philanthropists. Indeed, Across the Bridges is often witty and humorous. It went through 11 printings – that last of which was in 1928 – and remains a classic of its genre.\nThe opening pages of the book capture it tone:\nIt is said by the man who goes down the Strand that across the bridges of the Thames there lies a quarter of London where it is not possible to find a good tailor or a big hotel. Yet in this seeming desert, which stretches for eight miles along the banks of the river, live all but two millions mothers and fathers and children. Their life is full of incident, yet not adventurous. Goodness abounds, but there is little greatness. Few memorable buildings exist on the south bank to attract sightseers from the countryside or colonies. Few streets seem suited for a royal procession. Even the best features have the sombreness of the second-rate. The part that lies closest to the river is far poorer tan the rest. On these streets poverty has set a seal, and its many problems have sunk their tangled roots deep into the life of the people. It is of the hopes and troubles that come to those who live here that these pages will speak. They will be content to trace the life of the average man by the river-side, to show his worth and possibilities, and will fall far short of suggesting the remedies which might transform his character and chances. (Paterson 1911: 1-2).\nFrom there Alexander Paterson goes on to explore local street life, family life, and customs and habits. The central part of the book examines the experiences of childhood with chapters on birth and infancy, education at an elementary school, school influences, and child-life outside school. All these are written with considerable sympathy and based in sharing in the lives of those he writes about. From here he turns to the working lives of boys and young men and how they spend their spare time. There are also chapters of character and religion and youthful offenders. The last part of the book explores marriage, the life of working people and failures. However, Paterson keeps returning to ‘the natural goodness’ of the local people:\nIn spite of every stupidity and mistake , in spite of the failure and wreckage of weak souls, here, born of the struggle of life, unfold those lives of love and perseverance, that are to the traveller that has eyes to see as the golden furze on the bleakest slope of the mountainside. (Paterson 1911: 262)\nThe book ends with a call to action on the part of those who have wealth and influence:\nThe first great struggle is for men to realize that across the bridges there is a great need, which is a reproach to their common sense because it is a great waste of strength and goodness, and to their manliness because it is unutterably sad. Some, moreover, need to learn that there is a bridge, after all, which will bear them to these countless homes of poverty. They will find the way across the river if they come, natural and unassuming, with a pure heart and ready hand, anxious only to serve and learn. They cross, perhaps, in fear and wonder, but find on the other side a happiness which makes [t]hem stay. They meet there gentler spirits with more indomitable courage than their own, and others who are more weak and sinful than they can understand; slowly they begin to share and join hands with all, and in the end rejoice that are as other men. (Paterson 1911: 272-3)\nThe book has some interesting omissions. First, the area where Paterson lived and upon which he based much of his writing had a large Irish, Catholic population – and it was these who were among the poorest. Indeed, the tenement where he lived was just a few yards from a large Catholic church and convent. Yet no attention is given to this in the book. We can speculate about the reasons for this. Perhaps Alexander Paterson, knowing that many of his readers would harbour significant anti-Catholic prejudices, left this out so as not to colour their reaction to his central message. Perhaps he thought the religious and cultural background of local people was of little significance. This leads on to a second key omission – the failure to discuss in any sustained way the structural and political reasons for the existence of poverty and hardship on the scale he experienced in Bermondsey. It might be that as his was, in significant part, a call for personal action on the part of those with money and influence that attention to the underlying forces helping to structure people’s lives was deemed unnecessary.\nReaction to the book was strong. Eagar comments that was ‘outstandingly popular, and ‘stung the minds and wrung the hearts of dwellers in Mayfair and the comfortable suburbs’ (1952: 382). It became required reading for those at Eton seeking confirmation. Eagar continues:\nIt conveyed a vast reproach by depicting not only the essential decency but the greater goodness of the river-side poor, whose generosity, unselfishness and uncomplaining cheerfulness made all the more tragic the weary round of casual employment, ill-health and destitution, and the merciless crushing of youthful capacity and hopefulness. (ibid.: 383)\nThe book certainly drew people into Bermondsey and similar areas ready to contribute and learn. Basil Henriques was a prime example. He describes the book as holding him ‘spellbound’ and as calling him to ‘cross that bridge’ (1937: 20). The Oxford and Bermondsey Mission, then Club, was able to augment its already strong and influential group of residents and supporters. Clement Atlee, also, has talked of staying with Paterson at the Oxford and Bermondsey Mission (while attending an Officer’s school in Bermondsey) and discussing the book (Atlee 1954: 24). Across the Bridges became a key reference point in debates – and stood alongside the best of the outpouring of books about the position of the young in urban areas e.g. Bray’s The Town Child (1907) and Urwick’s Studies of Boy Life in our Cities. It even invited a sequel – London Below Bridges written by Hubert Secretan, then the warden of Oxford and Bermondsey, and published in 1931. Paterson, in his introduction to the book, comments, ‘Transformation has been effected in so short a time. The homes are better, parents are more concerned in the education of their children. The restriction in hours of public houses has given two hours more sleep to every man, woman and child. The schools are based on leadership rather than regulation’. Yet, he continues, ‘There is still waste in South London because human personality is starved in spirit and cramped in growth by the crudeness of its environment and the scarcity of leaders’ (xii-xiii).\nThe TOC H movement grew out of the efforts of Philip Clayton, an army chaplain who had previously been associated with Stansfeld and the Oxford Medical Mission. He had set up a soldier’s rest-house behind Allied lines in Belgium at Gasthuisstraat in autumn 1915. This house – Talbot House (or ‘Toc H’ in signaller’s jargon) – with its chapel in the hop loft at the top of the building, was experienced as a unique place of fellowship and sanctuary. Friendships were formed across ranks – and many discovered a reality in religion for the first time (Rice and Prideaux-Brune 1990). The House remained open until spring 1918 when German advances brought it directly into the battle zone.\nSuch was the effect of the house, that a number of those who had passed through it wanted to re-create its atmosphere and ethos in peacetime. As Rice and Prideaux-Brune have commented it was two particular aspects that people want to preserve:\nFirstly, there was the fellowship of Toc H, something deeper than the much-talked-of ‘comradeship of the trenches’. People found they could create real friendships with those who, in other circumstances, they would never have met. And they realized that such friendships could transform society. One of them wrote afterwars: ‘To conquer hate would be to end the strife of all the ages, but for men to know one another is not difficult, and it is half the battle’.\nAnd then there was the impact of that Upper Room. The chapel was Anglican, but it was not narrowly denominational. The house was Christian, but it offered a welcome to all who entered it. And so those who entered it wanted to preserve a spirit which would overcome the hostility between the different Christian traditions, and would offer a place, within a Christian community, to those who had no clear Christian beliefs. (1990: 10)\nIt is easy to see why those involved with Oxford and Bermondsey such as Barclay Baron and Alexander Paterson would be part of such efforts. They ran in parallel with their own concerns in Bermondsey. It was not an ex-servicemen organization but an attempt to cultivate and sustain fellowship and an inclusive Christianity for future generations. Indeed Philip ‘Tubby’ Clayton had been a frequent visitor to Oxford and Bermondsey and involved in the work and was later to say that Bermondsey was ‘the true candle of Toc H’ (Baron 1952: 208).\nAlec Paterson became the first chairman of Toc H. The earliest statement of the aims of Toc H was drawn up by Tubby Clayton, the Rev ‘Dick’ Sheppard of St Martin-in-the-Fields, and Alexander Patterson early in 1920. The four points of the compass (as they became known) stressed:\n1. FRIENDSHIP: To love widely.\n2. SERVICE: To build bravely.\n3. FAIRMINDEDNESS: To think fairly.\n4. THE KINGDOM OF GOD: To witness humbly. (The full statement can be found in Philip ‘Tubby’ Clayton and Toc H).\nToc H was to grow into major movement developing a range of local groups and establishing a number of national houses and holiday homes. It also spread to a number of other countries.\nAfter the First World War there was considerable pressure for change in the prison system. Of particular note was was a report by the Prison System Enquiry Committee edited by Stephen Hobhouse and Fenner Brockway (both of whom had been conscientious objectors and imprisoned during the War). As Edwards and Hurley have noted, the publication of the report coincided with the appointment as chairman of the Commission of Maurice Waller; the foundation of the Howard League for Penal Reform by Margery Fry; and the appointment as a Commissioner of Alexander Paterson. They continue:\nPaterson was unique amongst Prison Commissioners in having no official connection with the prison service before his appointment…. He is chiefly remembered for his impact on the borstal system but he was also the driving force behind many of the more general reforms of the twenties and thirties.\nThe impact of new Commissioners was swiftly felt. The convict crop and the broad arrow were abolished, reasonable facilities were made for shaving (until then not even a safety razor had been allowed), the silence rule was greatly relaxed, educational facilities were extended, and provision was made for male prisoners to receive visits from prison visitors. Efforts were made to improve the work available to prisoners, which had fallen off after the end of the war, and a seven-hour working day was introduced in 1923. In 1929, with the help of the Howard League, a pilot scheme for the payment of a small wage to prisoners working in the mat-making shop at Wakefield was established. Public funds were made available for this purpose in 1930 and the scheme was gradually extended. The period of separate confinement was phased out from 1922 and abolished in the Prison Rules 1930. In 1936 all prisoners were allowed to have tobacco, a privilege previously reserved for those serving sentences of four years or more.\nThe basic idea underpinning Paterson’s approach was that the primary aim of detention was to educate the offender. ‘Deterrence and retribution were achieved by the deprivation of liberty’ (Ruck 1951: 13).\nNot surprisingly given his previous experience, Alec Paterson had a special interest in the reform of the borstal system. Established as part of the criminal code in 1908 the Borstal sentence had been built upon a military model of discipline and authority. In contrast Alexander Paterson looked to the public school system as a template with its ‘conception of building discipline from within, by encouraging the boys’ social instincts of loyalty and esprit de corps, and stimulating their latent capacity for leadership’ (Ruck 1951: 13). He knew the approach worked from his time with the Oxford and Bermondsey Mission.\nOne of his chief weapons was his influence in making appointments, particularly of the new grade of ‘housemasters’ (also known as assistant governors). He believed that success in any organization was ‘dependent absolutely on the quality of the staff’ (Ruck 1951: 13). The result, over time was a significant shift in the character of borstal regimes. His aim was to reform, ‘reclaim’ and train those who found themselves in Borstals. Edwards and Hurley summarize the achievements as follows:\nIn 1924 uniform for borstal officers was abolished, and officers generally were encouraged to involve themselves with the boys in a wide variety of activities, many of them of a leisure time character. Summer camps became a feature of borstal life. The Commissioners’ annual report for 1929 foreshadowed a new borstal establishment to cope with the demands for places. This new establishment was inaugurated by the famous march undertaken in May 1930 by a group of staff and boys from Feltham borstal under the leadership of the governor W.W. Llewellin to found the first open prison establishment in England, at Lowdham Grange in Nottinghamshire. In 1935 Llewellin led a similar march from Stafford to Freiston near Boston, Lincolnshire, where a second open borstal, North Sea Camp, was established. A third was started in 1938 at Hollesley Bay, Suffolk. In 1936 adult prisoners from Wakefield slept in open conditions for the first time at New Hall Camp which was in continuous occupation from January 1937. These developments attracted no serious criticism from the public.\nHaving effected change within the borstal system, Paterson then sought to apply his principles to elements of the prison system. In particular he looked at the experience of the ‘Star class’ of prisoner – adults imprisoned for their first offence. Part of Paterson’s success lay in the sheer length of time he was Commissioner. A further aspect lay in the connections he had made both at Oxford and through the networks associated with ‘Oxford in Bermondsey’. When this was added to his expertise with regard to the experiences of young men and his ability to choose and motivate those charged with the running of borstals. One of Paterson’s oft-quoted sayings was that the secret of discipline was motivation. ‘When a man is sufficiently motivated, discipline will take care of itself (see Ruck 1951)’. It was this plus a concern with education and training rather than a focus on punishment that characterized his contribution. However, Alexander Paterson did recognize that some were ‘incorrigible’ and that society needed protection from such people (clauses in the Criminal Justice Act 1948 around preventive detention owed their existence largely to him).\nAlexander Paterson was a man of considerable courage and charisma. He had a profound ability to inspire others and to call them to work on behalf of those less fortunate than themselves. Ruck (1951: 14) comments:\n[H]e was not the empirical sentimentalist he was sometimes represented to be. At first a leader and man of action who happily brought to realization some preconceived ideas of reform, he was also a student and thinker.\nHe had faith in the value and potential of all, a faith that had been strengthened by his experience of living among poor people, and of serving in the trenches during the First World War. This capacity to join with people, to share in their lives, allowed him to develop a far more rounded appreciation of social questions than most within his class. His Christian faith provided the motor for action. The result was a contribution that spanned a number of fields – youth work, the needs and experiences of people in deprived areas, prison reform and establishment of Toc H.\nAtlee, C. (1954).

{"text": "War and Peace (Ack-Ack Fire near a Russian Aleut Grave), Wm F Draper, 1942\nMemorial Day is one of the bookends of summer. It's easy to forget what Memorial Day honors - which is all of the men and women who have died in military service to our country.\nFrom the US Memorial Day webpage:\n\"Memorial Day was officially proclaimed on 5 May 1868 by General John Logan, national commander of the Grand Army of the Republic, in his General Order No. 11, and was first observed on 30 May 1868, when flowers were placed on the graves of Union and Confederate soldiers at Arlington National Cemetery. The first state to officially recognize the holiday was New York in 1873. By 1890 it was recognized by all of the northern states. The South refused to acknowledge the day, honoring their dead on separate days until after World War I (when the holiday changed from honoring just those who died fighting in the Civil War to honoring Americans who died fighting in any war). It is now celebrated in almost every State on the last Monday in May (passed by Congress with the National Holiday Act of 1971 (P.L. 90 - 363) to ensure a three day weekend for Federal holidays), though several southern states have an additional separate day for honoring the Confederate war dead: January 19 in Texas, April 26 in Alabama, Florida, Georgia, and Mississippi; May 10 in South Carolina; and June 3 (Jefferson Davis' birthday) in Louisiana and Tennessee.\nTraditional observance of Memorial day has diminished over the years. Many Americans nowadays have forgotten the meaning and traditions of Memorial Day. At many cemeteries, the graves of the fallen are increasingly ignored, neglected. Most people no longer remember the proper flag etiquette for the day. While there are towns and cities that still hold Memorial Day parades, many have not held a parade in decades. Some people think the day is for honoring any and all dead, and not just those fallen in service to our country.\"\nAleutians Campaign, Wm F. Draper\nBoxing Match, Wm F.

{"text": "One in six inhabitants of the Caribbean Netherlands are smokers, one in eight are heavy drinkers and over six in ten are overweight. Half of the population are getting sufficient exercise. Women smoke and drink much less than men, but are more likely to be obese and exercise less. These are some conclusions from the Health Study which was conducted in the Caribbean Netherlands in 2017.\nIn collaboration with the Public Health departments of the public entities Bonaire, St Eustatius and Saba, Statistics Netherlands (CBS) and the National Institute for Public Health and the Environment (RIVM) conducted a health monitoring survey in the Caribbean Netherlands in 2017. This Health Study Caribbean Netherlands was held to gain insight into the overall health status of the island population and into common infectious diseases, as well as to examine whether the population is well-protected against the infectious diseases against which they are vaccinated as part of the National Vaccination Programme. A total of 1,900 people participated in the study.\nFew heavy smokers\nOf the Caribbean Dutch population, 17 percent say they smoke. Only 2 percent are heavy smokers, i.e. with an average of 20 or more cigarettes per day. Women are much less likely to smoke than men. Smoking behaviour varies per island. On Saba, 24 percent of the population are smokers, versus 17 percent on Bonaire and 13 percent on St Eustatius. On all three islands, the number of heavy smokers is relatively small.\nIn the Caribbean Netherlands, 11 percent of the non-smoking residents are exposed to second-hand tobacco smoke indoors for at least one hour per day. On Bonaire, this is 12 percent; on St Eustatius 3 percent and on Saba 11 percent. This includes children. On Bonaire, for example, 9 percent of 0 to 11-year-olds smoke passively for at least one hour per day; of the non-smoking 12 to 15-year-olds, this share is 14 percent. On St Eustatius and Saba, fewer children seem to be exposed to other people’s smoke.\nShare of heavy drinkers much smaller among women\nOne in eight residents of the Caribbean Netherlands are heavy drinkers: 8 percent of women versus 17 percent of men. Women on all three islands drink less alcohol than men.\nSt Eustatius has the lowest share of heavy drinkers at 8 percent. On Saba and Bonaire, the shares amount to 16 and 12 percent respectively.\nMen exercise more\nHalf of the population (49 percent) of the Caribbean Netherlands meet the Dutch Physical Activity Guidelines (NNGB). The share meeting this standard is higher among men (59 percent) than among women (38 percent). Women on Saba turn out to be physically much more active than those on Bonaire and St Eustatius: 58 percent of the female population on Saba meet the activity standard, as against 38 percent of women on Bonaire and 32 percent of women on Statia.\nNearly half of all women on Statia are obese\nMore than six in ten residents of the Caribbean Netherlands are overweight, of whom half are obese. Women and men are equally likely to be overweight, but obesity is relatively more common among women: 36 percent, as against 26 percent of men. St Eustatius has the highest share of obese women, namely 46 percent.\nHigher obesity rates in the Caribbean Netherlands\nDue to methodological differences, the above results cannot be compared one-on-one with the figures for the European Netherlands. However, it can be concluded that there are relatively fewer active smokers in the Caribbean Netherlands. Conversely, non-smokers are significantly more likely to inhale other people’s smoke compared to the European Netherlands (this share is even 4 times higher in children). Furthermore, there are many more obese people in the Caribbean Netherlands, with the obesity rate at least twice as high.\nStatLine – Lifestyle and (preventive) health examination, European Netherlands", "label": "No"}
{"text": "Athens vs. Sparta, Pro Sparta\nHey all you ladies out there! I know you would much rather have a say in politics, but over in Athens, men all the decisions. You were considered “invisible”, but that exactly the opposite of what girls want. Here in Sparta, girls can own LAND! That means we could turn it into a spa or salon. Speaking of a spa, you can also take part in business. We took part in physical fitness training so we could bear strong sons for the military. We were born into equal rights, unlike Athens women, who had to work their way up to equal rights, just like slaves. As you can see, if you were a woman in Greece in ancient times, Sparta is the better choice.\nBut that’s not the only reason Sparta was a better living environment. We also had outstanding health. We were very strong, physically and mentally, because of a bootcamp for young soldiers. The bootcamp was harsh, but it taught us at a young age to survive on our own, and live in times of hardship. Besides bootcamp, Spartans took part in gymnastics, music and physical training. In Sparta, plague and disease rarely came to us because we were all very healthy, whereas Athens was often sick. Infact, 1/3 of Athens’ population died because of a plague. Including much of Athens’ population, the plague killed their leader, Pericles. Pericles had a very strong impact on Athens, and trade and businesses relied on him for support. After his death, Athens struggled with despair and loss of leadership, making it hectic. Wouldn’t you rather live in a place\nwhere health abounds and we are self-disciplined enough to stay clam and composed in situations.\nSince we had such good health, our military was strong. We dominated Athens, and most other polis, at war. This allowed us to conquer lots of land for military camps. The Spartan warriors were brave and stood strong in war, playing a key role in many Persian Wars. A part of Athens’ defeat was because of our strategies. We formed a blockade at the Athenian port for trade. It was one of their only resources for food, causing most of Athens to die of starvation. Those who didn’t were killed and beaten by us Spartans. The Athenians relied mostly on their navy in times of war, which could be a major con if we were fighting on land. In most cases we won wars with only a few Spartans killed. In war, Sparta is the better choice.\nIn Sparta, your attitude was tough, silent and grim. The city’s needs came before your own, and members of the community were treated as equals. All Spartans were selfless and composed individuals who fought for our city. If anyone got sick, which rarely happened, we would care for them and cure the illness. Athens focuded on thig less important than surviving, like arts and poetry. We were actually not bloodthirsty, we were selfless. Sparta is a safer, better place to live in general, and we are happy to have you. Just remember, you’re fighting for the city, yourself, and freedom.

{"text": "The Motion Picture Association (MPA) is an American trade association representing the five major film studios of the United States — Universal Pictures, Paramount Pictures, Walt Disney Studios, Sony Pictures, Warner Bros., as well as the video streaming service Netflix. Founded in 1922 as the Motion Picture Producers and Distributors of America (MPPDA) and known as the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) from 1945 until September 2019, its original goal was to ensure the viability of the American film industry. In addition, the MPAA established guidelines for film content which resulted in the creation of the Production Code in 1930. This code, also known as the Hays Code, was replaced by a voluntary film rating system in 1968, which is managed by the Classification and Rating Administration (CARA).\nMore recently, the MPA has advocated for the motion picture and television industry, with the goals of promoting effective copyright protection, reducing piracy, and expanding market access. It has long worked to curb copyright infringement, including recent attempts to limit the sharing of copyrighted works via peer-to-peer file-sharing networks and by streaming from pirate sites.

{"text": "le carnaval de la mi-carême, Nantes (France) – photograph: MaxPPP/France-Soir\nThe noun Shrovetide denotes the period comprising Quinquagesima Sunday, or Shrove Sunday, and the two following days, Shrove Monday and Shrove Tuesday, which immediately precedes Ash Wednesday, the beginning of Lent.\n(The word Quinquagesima is short for ecclesiastical Latin quinquagesima dies, fiftieth day, because, counting inclusively, Quinquagesima Sunday is the fiftieth day before Easter Sunday.)\nIt was formerly customary, in preparation for Lent, to attend confession during Shrovetide. The element shrove is from the verb shrive, which meant, of a priest, to hear the confession of, assign penance to, and absolve, from Old English scrífan, to prescribe penance. (In Shrovetide, the use of the past shrove is anomalous but can perhaps be compared to that of spoke, past of speak, in spokesman.)\nThe verb shrive is related to Dutch schrijven and German schreiben, which both mean to write. These three verbs are based on Latin scribere, meaning literally to scratch, engrave with a sharp point, hence to write (cf. script and scribe). To mean to form by carving, to write, Germanic languages such as Dutch and German replaced their native verbs by those based on the Latin scribere, whereas English has retained the native write and uses shrive in a specialised sense.\nIn Shrovetide, tide has the sense of a festival of the Church, as in Yuletide for example. The primary meaning of tide, which is related to time, is portion of time. The use of the word to mean the alternate rising and falling of the sea arose from a particular application of the sense fixed time.\nThough named for their religious significance, Shrovetide, and Shrove Tuesday in particular, were marked by feasting and celebration traditionally preceding the observance of the Lenten fast. This is why, from the element Shrove-, the verb shrove was coined to mean to make merry, especially in to go a-shroving. For example, in a letter dated 12th February 1620, John Chamberlain (1553-1628) wrote to Sir Dudley Carleton (1573-1632), English ambassador to the United Provinces (the Netherlands):\nWe hear the king will be here within this fortnight, and spend all the Lent hereabout. They pass the time merrily at Newmarket, and the running masque reigns all over the country, where there be fit subjects to entertain it; as lately they have been at Sir John Crofton’s, near Bury; and, in requital, those ladies have invited them to a masque of their own invention, all those fair sisters being summoned for the purpose; so that on Thursday next, the king, prince, and all the court, go thither a shroving.\nThe Mirror of Literature, Amusement, and Instruction (London) of 28th February 1829 described humbler festivities:\nCollop Monday is the day before Shrove Tuesday, and in many parts is made a day of great feasting on account of the approaching Lent. It is so called, because it was the last day allowed for eating animal food before Lent; and our ancestors cut up their fresh meat into collops, or steaks, for salting or hanging up until Lent was over; and even now in many places it is still a custom to have eggs and collops, or slices of bacon, for dinner on this day.\nIn Westmoreland, and particularly at Brough, where I have witnessed it many times, the good people kill a great many pigs about a week or two previous to Lent, which have been carefully fattened up for the occasion. The good housewife is busily occupied in salting the flitches and ham to hang up in the “pantry”, and in cutting the fattest parts of the pig for collops on this day. The most luscious cuts are baked in a pot in an oven, and the fat poured out into a bladder, as it runs out of the meat, for hog’s-lard. When all the lard has been drained off, the remains (which are called ‘cracklings’, being then baked quite crisp) resemble the crackling on a leg of pork, are eaten with potatoes, and from the quantity of salt previously added to them, to preserve the lard, are unpalatable to many mouths. The rough farmers’ men, however, devour them as a savoury dish, and every time “lard” is being made, ‘cracklings’ are served up for the servants’ dinner. Indeed, even the more respectable classes partake of this dish.\nPig-fry. This is a Collop Monday dish, and is a necessary appendage to ‘cracklings’. It consists of the fattest parts of the entrails of the pig, broiled in an oven. Numerous herbs, spices, &c. are added to it; and upon the whole, it is a more sightly “course” at table than fat cracklings. Sometimes the good wife indulges her house with a pancake, as an assurance that she has not forgotten to provide for Shrove Tuesday. The servants are also treated with “a drop of something good” on this occasion; and are allowed (if they have nothing of importance to require their immediate attention) to spend the afternoon in conviviality.\nIn French, Shrove Tuesday is le Mardi gras, in which the adjective gras is not used in its usual sense of fat. Traditionally, un jour gras denoted a day on which consumption of flesh, of meat, was allowed by the Roman Catholic Church, and faire (or manger) gras meant to eat meat. This is why Shrovetide is les jours gras in French. Conversely, un jour maigre (cf. English meagre) denoted a day on which abstinence from meat was ordered and faire maigre meant to abstain from meat.\nSimilarly, a dish known as choux gras was made of cabbage prepared in meat gravy. The familiar French phrase faire ses choux gras (de quelque chose), literally to make one’s ‘choux gras’ (out of something), means to use (something) to one’s advantage.\nThe word carnival denotes an annual festival before Lent in Roman Catholic countries, involving processions, music, dancing and the use of masquerade. The word is from Italian carnevalo, carnevale, (whence French carnaval), an alteration of Medieval Latin carnelevare, meaning the putting away of flesh (as food), from Latin caro/carn-, flesh, and levare, to put away. The name was originally proper to the eve of Ash Wednesday, but was commonly extended to the last three days or the whole week before Lent. In France it comprised le Jeudi gras, le Dimanche gras, le Lundi gras and le Mardi gras, i.e. Thursday before Quinquagesima, Quinquagesima Sunday, Shrove Monday and Shrove Tuesday; in a still wider sense it included the time of entertainments intervening between Twelfth-day, or Boxing Day, and Ash Wednesday. In France, le carnaval de la mi-carême, Mid-Lent carnival, is still a festivity held on the middle Thursday of Lent, from the tradition of celebrating, on this day-long respite from Lenten fasting, the fact that the first half of that season was at an end.\nThe French noun carême, meaning Lent, is from an unattested Late Latin quaresima, alteration of ecclesiastical Latin quadragesima (dies), fortieth (day) (before Easter Sunday). In English, Quadragesima (Sunday) denotes the first Sunday in Lent.\n—Lent runs from Ash Wednesday to Holy Saturday, and so includes forty weekdays: Ash Wednesday, the Thursday, Friday and Saturday that follow it, and six days in each of the following six full weeks. It was forbidden to fast or do other forms of penance on the Sundays—and not simply on Easter Sunday—because they are days to celebrate Christ’s Resurrection.", "label": "No"}

Especially when they are still at the formation stages, your students learning will be enhanced a great deal. You can create your own worksheet by following some simple steps. You can be having a template to assist you while creating fonts, shapes of the grid, and many more. You can also choose how your letters will be replaced after your students have completely have filled them to ensure that it’s used for learning purposes again.\nAnother key in writing worksheets is the amount of time a student will spend on them. If you prepare worksheets with several pages, they may end up bringing them to home and losing the interest to finish answering them. So be keen on preparing one at all times. When your child is first introduced to the letters of the alphabet, those letters are usually related to pictures of items that start with that letter. You will find ’Annie Apple’, ’David Dolphin’, and similar terms used throughout the world to introduce children to sounds and letters. Unless you’re artistic and can draw, printable worksheets may be an easier solution – and generally more affordable than a book.\nSchools use worksheets from printing to cursive writing of letters to the writing of words. There is also online help to show the children how to exactly form a letter or word. After showing the students or children the way of writing, you can print the worksheets and give them practice on how to write exactly the right way. Children will be interested to do the activity because they had fun watching the software that you showed them.\nLearning to Read – Many early reading books use pictures to replace new or difficult words. If your child can recognize a red apple, they will be able to read a sentence with a picture of a red apple in it. Recognizing certain objects by their color as well as their shape helps your child learn how to read.\nCreative Expression – Color is a vital part of creative expression, and while it is important that your child learn that the sky is blue and the grass is green, it is also important that they be allowed to experiment with color. Mixing paints and having free rein to color a picture any way they want to, allows children to express themselves creatively, so don’t always insist that they use color accurately.\nThere are many types of writing worksheets. There are the cursive writing worksheets and the kindergarten worksheets. The latter is more on letter writing and number writing. This is typically given to kids of aged four to seven to first teach them how to write. Through these worksheets, they learn muscle control in their fingers and wrist by repeatedly following the strokes of writing each letter.\nTag Cloudconsumer math word problems high school math curriculum order grade 4 mathematics 5th grade math test questions 10th grade math book kumon math level o kindergarten assessment 6th grade math homework help fun math quiz questions practical math skills learn 7th grade math mathematics teacher math quiz worksheets counting on worksheets first grade math in everyday life", "label": "No"}

{"text": "Meteorologists are trying come up with ways to calm down hurricanes. One method would be to blast them with a nuclear weapon. “The answer to that is a hurricane is bad enough without making it radioactive,” says Hugh Willoughby, of the International Hurricane Center. “The only benefit would be is it would glow in the dark and it would be a lot easier to see at night.” But Peter Cordani of Dyn-O-Mat, who invented an absorbent powder that can make a thundercloud release rain, thinks he can solve the hurricane problem too.\nA TV station’s weather radar confirmed that a cloud lost moisture after an airplane dropped $40,000 worth of Dyn-O-Gel granules into it. Now Cordani wants to develop a powder that’s thousands of times more absorbent, so that when dropped into the eye of a hurricane, it can suck out the moisture. He says, “We’re trying to break the momentum of that spin, of that rotation.”\nBut Willoughby says huge amounts of the powder would be needed to make even a minor change in a hurricane. “It would really take all of the military heavy-lift aircraft that the United States has to carry the material, and there would be a major air traffic control problem around the eye,” he says. “The big danger would be a major collision, and it would be hugely expensive for not much benefit.”\nThe U.S. government thinks Cordani’s proposal is one of the better ones it’s received, but has decided not to try it.

{"text": "Collection No 1\nWhen language influences economics\nKeith Chen, Associate Professor of Economics at the Yale School of Management, is working on ground-breaking research on how languages influence savings patterns. Chen’s approach to research is to use adventurous, genre-blurring tools to see how economics, linguistics, and psychology might affect each other. His most current studies look at the relationship between how the concept of the future, as reflected in national languages, might cause people to behave in certain ways. We discussed his findings, with a focus on Mandarin.\nIn your recent TED Global presentation and in your research at Yale, you use Mandarin as an example of a language that does not have a future tense. What are the key differences between such a “non-futured” language and “futured” ones?\nThe feature of language that I study is how much a given language forces or does not force its speakers to mark time as they talk. One way to understand this feature of languages is to note that Mandarin doesn’t have tenses in the same way English does, and this allows Mandarin speakers a lot more flexibility in the way they speak about time. For example, if I wanted to explain to an English-speaking colleague why I can’t attend a meeting later today, I could NOT say “I go to a seminar.” English grammar would force me to note that this is in the future, and say “I (will go, am going, have to go) to a seminar.” If on the other hand I were speaking Mandarin, it would be quite natural for me to say Wo˘ qù tı¯ng jia˘ngzuò (I go listen seminar). I could easily have said the same thing if I was talking about a seminar I was at yesterday, as long as the context was clear. English forces its speakers to habitually divide time between the present and future in a way that Mandarin (which has no tenses) does not. Of course, this does not mean that Mandarin speakers are unable (or even less able) to understand the difference between the present and future, only that they are not required to attend to it every time they speak.\nCan you summarize how speaking a non-futured language such as Mandarin generally correlates with spending habits?\nWhat I wondered when I became aware of these differences is: Could how you speak about time affect how you make choices across time? In my work, I study whether being required to speak in a distinct way about future events (as English requires) leads speakers to take fewer future-oriented actions like savings or minding their health, because it subtly encourages them to think of the future as something distant from the present. Put another way, I ask whether a habit of speech that disassociates the future from the present can cause people to devalue future rewards. What I find is really strong patterns all around the world consistent with this hypothesis. All around the globe, there are pockets of futureless language speakers like the Chinese. And all around the world these people turn out to be, by and large, the world’s best savers. This not only appears across countries, but also appears within countries that have multiple languages, like Belgium, Burkina Faso, Ethiopia, Nigeria, Malaysia and Singapore. This tendency also does not abate no matter how many characteristics of people accounted for: wealth, level of development, age, weather, family structure, or even religion.\nDoes speaking a non-futured language correlate with other habits, too? For example, does it correlate to health-related behaviors?\nYes, it turns out it does. One way to think about this is that we have to do many things in our lives, like exercise, that are a lot like saving. Saving is giving up money today in exchange for money tomorrow; exercising is giving up time today in exchange for health tomorrow. And when you look at these health behaviors, all around the world you see the exact same patterns.\nfrog is a global design and strategy firm.

Early in its history, \"A Mighty Fortress is Our God\" served as a rallying cry for the Reformation movement. So powerful was the song's message that the reformers drew strength from it in even the darkest times. More than a few martyrs went to their deaths singing out, \"The body they may kill: God's truth abideth still. ...\" In time, the hymn earned the title \"The Battle Hymn of the Reformation.\"\nLuther based the hymn on the forty-sixth Psalm and wrote it in his native German tongue. Some sources claim that he and his supporters sang it as they prepared to face the Diet of Worms in 1521. Others say that he penned a few months later while hidden away for his safety in Wartburg Castle. Still others contend that Luther wrote the hymn as a tribute to his friend Leonhard Kaiser, who was burned at the stake in 1527 for his religious beliefs.\nWhatever the hymn's origins, the oldest printed copies of it date back to 1531, with the first English translation making its appearance in 1539. The common English version below was translated by Frederic H. Hedge in 1853:\nA mighty fortress is our God, a bulwark never failing;\nOur helper He, amid the flood of mortal ills prevailing:\nFor still our ancient foe doth seek to work us woe;\nHis craft and power are great, and, armed with cruel hate,\nOn earth is not his equal.\nDid we in our own strength confide, our striving would be losing;\nWere not the right Man on our side, the Man of God’s own choosing:\nDost ask who that may be? Christ Jesus, it is He;\nLord Sabaoth, His Name, from age to age the same,\nAnd He must win the battle.\nAnd though this world, with devils filled, should threaten to undo us,\nWe will not fear, for God hath willed His truth to triumph through us:\nThe Prince of Darkness grim, we tremble not for him;\nHis rage we can endure, for lo, his doom is sure,\nOne little word shall fell him.\nThat word above all earthly powers, no thanks to them, abideth;\nThe Spirit and the gifts are ours through Him Who with us sideth:\nLet goods and kindred go, this mortal life also;\nThe body they may kill: God’s truth abideth still,\nHis kingdom is forever.", "label": "No"}
{"text": "Many people flee hurricanes; some birdwatchers flock to them\nBy Karin Brulliard\nThe Washington Post\nSunday, September 23, 2018\nAs thousands of North Carolina residents were hunkering down or fleeing from Hurricane Florence on Thursday, 21-year-old Alec Hopping got into his car in Ithaca, New York, and headed toward it.\nHis Toyota Prius was loaded with three cans of gasoline, first-aid supplies, snacks, cameras, binoculars. His phone was loaded with radar apps to track the storm. His destination was the eye of the hurricane, where he and a friend, Logan Kahle, hoped to witness something known as \"fallout.\"\nFallout, in this case, meant birds, lots of birds, and strange ones at that — seabirds on shore, shorebirds far inland, tropical birds way out of their range.\nHurricanes, with their high winds and ocean tracks, can be roller coasters for birds. Those caught in them are whipped around, and experts say many probably die of exhaustion. But some make it — either by getting stuck in the calm eye or by sheer luck — and then land far from their home habitats. Some passionate birders — the kind who keep detailed lists of species they spot — are there to greet them.\n\"It's very exciting for birders when that happens,\" said Walker Golder, the National Audubon Society's program director of Atlantic Coast flyway strategy.\nStorm-birding, or hurricane-birding, is not for the casual birdwatcher. It can involve getting very wet, and it sometimes involves risk. Hopping and Kahle, for example, retreated from an area 20 miles from the North Carolina coast when power lines started falling, then headed inland to Buckhorn Reservoir, east of Raleigh.\nThe eye seemed stuck offshore, but they had studied reports on websites including eBird of remarkable bird sightings during past hurricanes. They figured they would head to a reservoir where unusual birds had shown up during past storms. They slept in the car. On Saturday morning, after waves of various species of seabirds called terns showed up in front of them, Kahle shouted out, \"Trindade petrel!\"\nThe Trindade petrel is a dark-bodied, white-bellied seabird that breeds on islands hundreds of miles off Brazil and otherwise rarely touches land. But it roams the Atlantic and often hangs out over Gulf Stream waters off North Carolina. Only twice before, as far as Hopping knew, had it been recorded inland in North America, in 1996 and 1933.\nOn this morning, it \"basically just materialized out of the sky\" at Buckhorn Reservoir, Hopping recalled. His camera had broken, so he quickly used his phone to take photos through his spotting scope that \"look like they were painted by Monet really far away.\"\n\"Oh, it was really worth it,\" said Hopping, a Cornell University junior studying environmental science and sustainability. \"We were really lucky .... It was shocking and so cool.\"\nHurricanes affect birds in other ways. In the Carolinas, it's possible that Florence damaged pine forests that species such as the endangered red-cockaded woodpecker depend on for nesting and foraging, Golder said. Hurricanes can submerge river islands where some seabirds nest, and erosion can prompt worried humans to harden shorelines, removing more habitat that migrating birds use as stopovers during long journeys south.\nBut there are upsides, Golder said. Some seabirds nest in sandy spots with sparse vegetation — the kind of habitat that washover from storms like Florence can make on barrier islands. In general, birds shelter as best they can, said Golder, who noted that migrant warblers were busily foraging in his Wilmington, North Carolina, backyard when the rains stopped, then retreated again — to where, he does not know — when they resumed their trip.\n\"Birds have been dealing with hurricanes for as long as there have been birds and hurricanes,\" he said.\nAs for those sought-after birds displaced by storms? Unless they're banded and tracked, their fate is unclear, Golder said. They probably try to follow rivers back to the ocean. But without their usual seafood diet, they might not have the energy to make it, he said.\n\"It's tough being a bird,\" said Nathan Gatto, the owner of Wright's Backyard Birding Center in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. \"It's always something you think about when you see a really lost bird.\"\nGatto, 30, didn't go straight into Florence to look for rarities, although he is the type of birder who has driven 19 hours each way to try — and fail — to spot a Ross's gull that had been reported in New York. But when it came to a hurricane in his state, he said, he didn't want to be that birder who got in trouble and required rescue.\nNevertheless, he spent six very rainy hours Saturday and eight sopping hours Sunday looking for birds at a lake near his city, outside the storm's path. He was rewarded with several terns, including the second recorded royal tern in Wake County and \"cool little shore birds\" called red-necked phalaropes.\nHis birding gear, he noted, is waterproof. \"We still got pretty wet,\" Gatto said.\nOf course, many people in the storm's path got a lot more than wet. Florence dropped 8 trillion gallons of water onto North Carolina, leading to mass flooding and the storm-related deaths of at least 37 people in three states. Knowing that sort of devastation can happen means sightings come with mixed emotions, birders said.\n\"I know every birder in North Carolina had this sort of hope that it was going to come right over and mess some stuff up and bring some birds through, but you feel a little bad about it,\" said Sam Jolly, 21, a North Carolina State University student who spotted a very rare arctic tern and other oceangoing birds at a lake southwest of Raleigh during the weekend.\n\"When birders are hoping for a storm, they want it to pass as a weak Category 1, or maybe a tropical storm,\" said Jolly, adding that he was \"not that hardcore\" to want to head into the storm itself.\nHopping, a Colorado native who said he has loved birds since third grade and went to Cornell because of its renowned ornithology lab, previously traveled alone to South America to look for birds. But he and Kahle had never birded a hurricane before, and it didn't take long to realize that it wasn't wise to stay in the thick of it.\n\"Shingles were ripping off houses. Parts of rooms were ripping off. You could lean over at a 45 degree angle and just kind of hang into it,\" he said of the winds closer to the coast on Friday. \"Once power lines started going down ... we got out of there.\"\nBut the reservoir proved fruitful. There, according to his eBird checklist, he and Kahle saw 36 species, nearly one-third of which Hopping logged as \"hurricane birds.\"\n\"I don't know if I would do the same thing again,\" Hopping said of his storm-chasing. \"But for a one-time thing, it was really awesome.\"", "label": "No"}
{"text": "Source Dr. Mercola:\nThe Scary Trend Of Boomer Addiction\nThe picture of a drug addict in your head is probably not one of a grey-haired grandmother or grandfather, a middle-aged professional or a soon-to-be retiree.\nBut the face of drug addiction in the United States is changing, and a significant number of older adults, particularly those in the baby boomer generation, are struggling with both illicit and prescription drug abuse …\nConventional Medicine Turning Seniors Into Drug Addicts\nThe National Institutes of Health (NIH) has reported that the number of people in their 50s who are abusing illicit drugs more than doubled from 2002 to 2010, going from 2.7 to 5.8 percent in this population. Among those 65 and older, 414,000 used illicit drugs in 2010.1\nOne reason for this, NIH suggested, is that baby boomers were more likely to use illicit drugs in their youth, which may make the drugs seem more acceptable now. This certainly appears to be the case … but it doesn’t help that in many cases their physicians are the ones doing the “dealing.”\nYou see, the illicit drugs mentioned by the NIH are not only the “street” drugs that the name implies. This category also includes prescription medications, abuse of which has become so severe among seniors that the NIH has devoted a new section of its Web site to address its effects.2\nAmong seniors, the risks of all medications are increased, because the body takes longer to break down and get rid of the drug than it does in a younger person. As a result, the drug stays in an older person’s system longer, where it can cause even greater damage.\nMorphine, codeine, oxycodone, hydrocodone and fentanyl all fall into this category. These drugs are not only addictive, they can lead to slowed breathing and death if too much is taken.\nUsed to treat anxiety and sleep disorders, medications such as Valium, Xanax, Ambien, and Sonata are also addictive, and cause side effects like confusion, drowsiness and impaired coordination. This can be especially risky among seniors, as it increases the risk of accidents and falls. Further, if these drugs are combined with alcohol or pain medications, the results can be deadly.\nThese include drugs such as Ritalin, Concerta and Adderall (the latter of which actually contains amphetamine, known and sold on the street as “speed” or “crank”), which are often used to teat ADHD, narcolepsy and even sometimes depression. Along with being highly addictive, stimulants sometimes lead to feelings of hostility and paranoia, along with risks like irregular heartbeat, heart failure and seizures.\nWhen a stimulant is combined with another medication, such as an over-the-counter cold medicine that contains a decongestant, it can cause dangerously high blood pressure or irregular heart rhythms.\nMedications to Treat Normal “Aging” Cost More Than Costs of Most Chronic Disease\nIn a study presented at the annual meeting of the American Public Health Association (APHA), it was revealed that spending for medications to treat conditions associated with normal aging, such as mental alertness, sexual dysfunction, menopause, aging skin and hair loss, tallies up to more than the costs of treating most chronic diseases!4\nUse of such drugs jumped 18.5 percent, while costs increased close to 46 percent, from 2006 to 2011. Among those on Medicare (ages 65 and up), usage increased 32 percent.\nIn 2011, the study found, costs for these drugs ranked third in annual prescription-drug costs among commercially insured individuals, which was surpassed only by costs of treating diabetes and high cholesterol! If only more people realized that they could improve their mental abilities, sexual dysfunction, symptoms of menopause and more using healthy foods instead of drugs, the outcome of the study would be much different, as would, likely, their health …\nMore Prescription Drugs Typically Mean More Health Risks\nAccording to statistics from the Kaiser Health Foundation, seniors aged 65 and older fill, on average, 28 prescriptions per year.5 There’s no doubt that the United States has been manipulated into becoming a “polypharmacy nation.” The word ‘polypharmacy’ simply means “many drugs,” but refers to instances where an individual is taking too many drugs — either because more drugs are prescribed than are clinically indicated, or when the sheer number of pills simply becomes a burden for the patient.\nMany Americans are being impacted by polypharmacy, with unforeseen effects on their health – and this is now, before a new era of government-sponsored healthcare is likely to be ushered in, making drugs even more accessible and promoted as the only legally sanctioned treatment option; or worse, mandatory, as is already the case for certain types of pediatric cancers “requiring” chemotherapy be used, or compulsory flu vaccines during a state or federally declared health emergency.\nMore medication is often viewed as a strategy to improve health, but those taking the most prescription drugs are at the greatest risks from adverse drug reactions, some of which can be worse than the disease they’re intended to treat, and which cause a downward spiral of additional prescriptions being given in order to “treat” the original drug-induced symptoms.\nOn average, if you take one prescription drug you’ll be exposed to 70 potential side effects. Some of the more commonly prescribed drugs average around 100 side effects each — and some drugs even carry over 500! If you multiply this by multiple drugs, and then factor in the unforeseen effects of taking multiple drugs at one time, the health risks are astronomical. Dr. Michael Stern, a specialist in geriatric emergency medicine at New York Presbyterian Hospital/Weill Cornell Medical Center, told the New York Times:6\n“Polypharmacy is responsible for up to 28 percent of hospital admissions and, if it were classified as such, it would be the fifth leading cause of death in the United States.”\nIn a study released last year by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMSHA), officials emphasized that people should assume there IS risk in prescribed medicines.7 And, for the first time, deaths from properly prescribed drugs even outnumber traffic fatalities in the United States …\nTeens Getting High From Drugs in Mom and Dad’s Medicine Cabinet\nIn another study presented at the annual meeting of The American Public Health Association, 10 percent of 7th to 12th graders surveyed said they had abused over-the-counter medications, such as cough syrups containing Dextromethorphan (DXM) and decongestants, to get high.8\nThis is yet another concerning trend, as teens will even go so far as to mix a variety of prescription pills together in a bowl at a party and take a mouthful of them like candy! The kids think this is a safe way to get high, since they see their parents taking the same medications all the time, but it often turns out to be a literal prescription for disaster, the side effects of which include permanent disability and death.\nWhat many fail to realize, whether a senior or a teen, is that prescription drugs can be just as addictive and deadly as illegal drugs. The painkiller Fentanyl, for instance, is approximately 100 times more potent than morphine.\nAlso, in many cases there’s no difference between a street drug and a prescription drug. For example, hydrocodone, a prescription opiate, is synthetic heroin. It’s indistinguishable from any other heroine as far as your brain and body is concerned. So, if you’re hooked on hydrocodone, you are in fact a good-old-fashioned heroin addict.\nWith teens, the problem is that prescription and over-the-counter drugs do not have the same stigma as illegal drugs, plus they’re easier to access because their parents take them … and even if you take the recreational aspect out of it, the average child aged 18 and under in the United States still takes more than four prescription drugs a year!9\nYou Can Feel Great Without Drugs\n…In fact, many report feeling better than they have in years once they’re able to wean off of their medications (which is something you should do only under the guidance of your health care practitioner). Staying well naturally, without the use of drugs or even frequent conventional medical care, is not only possible, it may be the most successful strategy you can employ to increase your longevity. If you adhere to a healthy lifestyle, you most likely will never need medications in the first place.\n- Proper Food Choices: For a comprehensive guide on which foods to eat and which to avoid, see my nutrition plan. Generally speaking, you should focus your diet on whole, unprocessed foods (organic vegetables, grass-fed meats, raw dairy, nuts, and so forth) that come from healthy, sustainable, local sources, such as a small organic farm not far from your home.For the best nutrition and health benefits, you will want to eat a good portion of your food raw. Personally, I aim to eat about 75 percent of my food raw, including raw eggs and humanely raised pastured organic animal products that have not been raised on a CAFO (concentrated animal feeding operation).Nearly as important as knowing which foods to eat more of is knowing which foods to avoid, and topping the list is fructose. When consumed in excess, sugar acts as a toxin and drives multiple disease processes in your body, not the least of which is insulin resistance, a major cause of accelerated aging.\n- Comprehensive Exercise Program, including High-Intensity Exercise like Peak Fitness: Even if you’re eating the healthiest diet in the world, you still need to exercise to reach the highest levels of health, and you need to be exercising effectively, which means including not only core-strengthening exercises, strength training, and stretching but also high-intensity activities into your rotation. High-intensity interval-type training boosts human growth hormone (HGH) production, which is essential for optimal health, strength and vigor.I’ve discussed the importance of Peak Fitness for your health on numerous occasions, so for more information, please review this previous article.\n- Stress Reduction and a Positive Attitude: You cannot be optimally healthy if you avoid addressing the emotional component of your health and longevity, as your emotional state plays a role in nearly every physical disease — from heart disease and depression, to arthritis and cancer.Effective coping mechanisms are a major longevity-promoting factor in part because stress has a direct impact on inflammation, which in turn underlies many of the chronic diseases that kill people prematurely every day. The Emotional Freedom Technique, meditation, prayer, social support and exercise are all viable options that can help you maintain emotional and mental equilibrium.\n- Proper Sun Exposure to Optimize Vitamin D: We have long known that it is best to get your vitamin D from sun exposure, and if at all possible, I strongly urge you to make sure you’re getting out in the sun on a daily basis. There is preliminary evidence suggesting that oral vitamin D may not provide the identical benefits, although it’s still better than none at all.\n- Take High Quality Animal-Based Omega-3 Fats: Animal-based omega-3 fat is a strong factor in helping people live longer, and many experts believe that it is likely the predominant reason why the Japanese are the longest lived race on the planet.\n- Avoid as Many Chemicals, Toxins, and Pollutants as Possible: This includes tossing out your toxic household cleaners, soaps, personal hygiene products, air fresheners, bug sprays, lawn pesticides, and insecticides, just to name a few, and replacing them with non-toxic alternatives.\n- Avoid Prescription Drugs. Do your homework. You can start on this site by using the search engine at the top of every page, which links to previous articles we have written over the past 15 years. Just type in the name of the drug or condition you are taking it for, and you will likely come up with dozens if not hundreds of pages of information that will help you develop a strategy to stop using the drugs by changing your lifestyle to take control of your health\nThe real truth about the money paid to Cathal Grant by the drug Companies\nNotice Dr. Cathal P Grant MD, Bedford, Texas is paid by Eli Lilly, Johnson & Johnson, AstraZeneca, Cephalon, GlaxoSmithKline, and Pfizer to push their drug in our opinion it is clear what Dr. Cathal P Grant MD, Bedford, Texas is doing, prescribing drug if you need them or not.\n- Texas Tribune: Drug Company Payments to Texas Doctors Raise Questions\nDoctors Paid Big By Drug Companies?\nOne patient statement about Dr. Cathal P Grant MD, Bedford, Texas:\n“We found out that he gets paid to speak for almost every drug company out there, even if the drugs are competitors. He is out to make the money and it is apparent the way patients are herded through the practice with no regard for the patient’s needs. Beware if he tries to prescribe you a “new” drug on the market, it probably means they are paying him now. “\nIn our experience Dr. Cathal P Grant MD, Bedford, Texas, does not tell you one big fact that you the patient has and that is Informed Consent, Dr. Cathal P Grant MD, Bedford, Texas, does not discuss this or wants you to know about this, in our experience so he can get you hooked on psychotropic medications so you can do nothing but feed you greed for money, and you do not care at all what you do to the patient’s life.\nThis video proves what we are saying in our opinion about Cathal Grant’s medical practice, it also shows how Cathal Grant does not want you to have informed consent in your visit with him, and he does not tell you the truth, as the video below shows:", "label": "No"}
{"text": "Raz’s theory is that interests justify rights and rights justify duties.\nBut whether there are duties or not depends on factors that are independent of a person’s interests. My interest in receiving an education is the same whether the people in my society can afford it or not. If they have to chose between education and eating, they might well have no duty to build schools, even though I have a strong interest in receiving an education.\nRaz tries to get around this difficulty by distinguishing between general rights, which do not logically entail the existence of corresponding duties, and particular rights, which do entail corresponding duties. But since he also holds that rights are sufficient to justify holding others under duties, it is hard to see how he can call general rights rights. (see Raz, pp. 211-212)\nNote: Raz and Hart do not mean the same thing by “general rights.” Sorry.\nThis raises a broader problem: what do rights do in Raz’s theory? For example, why couldn’t we just replace them with very important interests that can be protected by holding others under duties? If we can make that replacement without losing anything important, then it seems that Raz’s theory does not actually explain what is distinctive about rights, that is, what rights do that other moral concepts do not.\nI passed out a short article critical of Raz's theory in class. I think that the criticism is, basically, the point we made about general rights.\nIf you're interested but weren't there, you can find it on JSTOR. The citation is: Margaret Holmgren, “Raz on Rights” Mind 94 (Oct., 1985): 591-5.\nIn the end, I think that Hart and Raz are really trying to answer two different questions.\nHart’s question is “what is distinctive about rights?” His answer is: they give those who have them control over others’ freedom.\nRaz’s question is “what feature do all rights share?” His answer is: they protect interests by imposing duties on others.", "label": "No"}

{"text": "It doesn’t have to be Black History month to learn about Langston Hughes for kids! James Mercer Langston Hughes was born in 1902 in Joplin, Missouri and lived with his story-telling, loving grandma until he was 12. He was often alone, and his grandma instilled a love of books in Hughes. He moved around with his mom and her new husband until after high school, when he began working. His jobs, including those on freighters, allowed him to travel to Mexico, and various countries in Europe and Africa. He finally settled in Harlem, New York in the 1920s. The Harlem Renaissance was an intellectual, social, and artistic explosion of culture; Harlem was the black mecca in the US at that time. Langston Hughes was an important figure during the Harlem Renaissance and he enjoyed sitting in clubs and listening to the blues and jazz as he wrote poetry. He was a leader, and devoted his life to writing about the Black experience in the United States.

Hughes wrote the poem from the perspective of an black – but it could have been either a slave, a free man in the Jim Crow South, or even a domestic servant. Reading this poem is as relevant now as it was when it was written. Many people think that “I, Too” was a response to Walt Whitman’s Poem “I Hear America Singing,” since Hughes admired Whitman’s work, but more importantly, because Hughes believed that even though the circumstances are different for blacks, of course they also deserve to experience patriotism.\nOther Books by Langston Hughes for Kids\nThe Book of Rhythms, by Langston Hughes teaches kids to find rhythms and write poems about everything that surrounds them, whether it’s in nature or their dining room.

{"text": "Vietnam is one developing nation believed to be using cyberattacks to generate money\nAs banks and financial institutions are increasingly targeted by financially motivated malicious actors the world over, protecting these organizations from cyberthreats is increasingly important, yet expensive. While developed and more affluent nations are able to invest in external-facing security systems, those financial organizations in developing countries are more vulnerable to attack, according to a new report published by IntSights.\nThe “Banking and Financial Services Threat Landscape Report“ found that banks and financial services organizations were targeted in 25.7% of all malware attacks last year, more than any of the other 27 industries tracked.\nIn the last year, threat actors have most frequently targeted banks and financial institutions in developing regions of the world. Those organizations in Latin America, Africa and parts of Asia that are lacking external facing security capabilities, are far more susceptible to attack. According to Charity Wright, former NSA and a threat intelligence research analyst at IntSights, cybercriminals are able to exploit financial institutions in developing nations rather easily, which could prove problematic for the global threat landscape.\nThe Consequence of Limited Resources\nWhile the web is bereft of boundaries, the digital world mirrors the geopolitical and economic landscape of the physical world. Financial institutions in developing nations may be leveraging mobile banking, but the lack of comprehensive security systems has left organizations in developing nations “bleeding out money,” Wright said.\nThe issue is limited resources. In 2018, Kenya suffered an estimated loss of $297.9 million to fraud and cyberattacks. Not surprisingly, banks were among the top victims, the report said. Last year also saw a cyberattack on a bank in Pakistan, in which criminals were able to steal 2.6 million Rupees from customer accounts. Then the second largest bank in India lost $13.5 million because of unauthorized interbank transactions.\nOrganizations that are running legacy systems without the means to keep those systems up to date are prime targets for malicious actors. Cybercriminals are known to go after the lowest hanging fruit, and “with fewer barriers, cybercriminals are able to exploit organizations in developing nations with far greater ease,” the report said.\nEven those countries that are able to adopt new technologies are vulnerable because, “in many cases, cybersecurity efforts have lagged behind advances in business operations, leaving organizations in this region to guard expansive attack surfaces without the necessary defense resources.”\nWhen Cyber Levels the Wrong Playing Field\nOf great concern is the potential for malicious actors in these developing nations to see cyber as a way to level the playing field. “They look to larger countries like China and see that the economy is fueling the cyber world, but they are also starting to see that cyber can fuel the economy,” Wright said, adding that Vietnam’s growing threat landscape is a prime example.\nWright authored research that looked specifically at the rising cyberthreats from Vietnam and found that “[r]ecent investments in the domestic development of technology have attracted skilled tech workers from foreign countries to Vietnam. This rapid economic growth and expansion naturally attracts undesirable attention in the form of cybercrime and cyber espionage.”\nAs the cybercriminal landscape of Vietnam has evolved, Wright said she has seen an uptick in threat actors targeting foreign multinational organizations operating inside Vietnam. “One group [APT 32, also known as Ocean Lotus] appears to be acting in support of Vietnam’s interests by creating economic advantages through cyberattacks on competitors.”\nCambodia is notably one of those competitors targeted by the group. Last year, OceanLotus was believed to have carried out cyberattacks on foreign nations who have the potential to threaten Vietnam’s economy. The report cited evidence of additional attacks on global organizations, including Toyota, suggesting that OceanLotus could be associated with the Vietnamese government and that its goal is to disrupt the business operations of their competitors.\n“Cyber warfare is an opportunity to level the playing field. Vietnam has the potential to develop into a cybercriminal outpost,” Wright wrote. “Increasing numbers of Vietnamese internet users are choosing anonymity through the deep and dark web, and are seeking information on cryptocurrencies, dark web usage, and access to cybercrime jobs.”", "label": "No"}
{"text": "Primordial germ cells (PGCs) are the precursors of sperm and eggs1. In most animals, segregation of the germ line from the somatic lineages is one of the earliest events in development2; in avian embryos, PGCs are first identified in an extra-embryonic region, the germinal crescent, after approximately 18 h of incu- bation. After 50–55 h of development, PGCs migrate to the gonad and subsequently produce functional sperm and oocytes3,4. So far, cultures of PGCs that remain restricted to the germ line have not been reported in any species5,6.

{"text": "Researchers from LSTM have shown that the mechanism by which the main vector of malaria in Africa, the Anopheles gambiae mosquito, becomes resistant to one class of insecticide, makes them more susceptible to others.\nIn a paper published last week in the journal BMC Genomics, the team, led by Dr Victoria Ingham, have shown that the transcription factor Maf-S, is the driving force that leads to an increase in the production of proteins that detoxify insecticides from the pyrethroid class, meaning that they stop being as effective at killing the mosquito. However, the team have discovered negative cross resistance due to the same transcription pathway, meaning that as the mosquito becomes more resistant to one insecticide class, pyrethroids, it becomes more susceptible to another, organophosphates.\nMalaria intervention programmes are responsible for a huge reduction in malaria cases and deaths across Sub-Saharan Africa, with long lasting insecticide treated nets and indoor residual spraying accounting for 81% of that reduction since 2000. Despite the reliance on these interventions, only four classes of public health insecticides are licensed for use in indoor residual spraying and only one, the pyrethroids, for insecticide treated nets. Senior author on the paper, LSTM’s Professor Hilary Ranson said: “Insecticide treated nets are in about 79% of houses across sub-Saharan Africa, and this level of exposure is obviously impacting on resistance among mosquito populations with over 75% of countries monitoring the problem reporting pyrethroid resistance. Understanding the mechanisms by which resistance occurs has never been more important and yet, prior to this study, almost nothing was known about the processes controlling metabolic resistance to insecticides”\nThe results of the lab trials also highlighted an important phenomenon seen previously in the field, which is that high levels of resistance to pyrethroids seems to lead to increased susceptibility to organophosphates, a particularly important find given the current pressure on public health insecticides. “Using organophosphate insecticides in indoor residual spraying may have a high impact on vector populations and therefore malaria control.” Continued Professor Ranson. “The paper demonstrates that transcriptional control is not only important in insecticides resistance, but that exploring the genetic reasons for that resistance can lead to important answers with operational impact.”", "label": "No"}
{"text": "Binge eating or out-of-control eating is a way of eating and using food that has no relationship to hunger or to nutrition and is a form of self-abuse. The size of the binge eating population group is under-estimated at 3.5% of women and 2% of men. Keep in mind that most binge eaters do not report their problem in a way that gets included in an “official” statistical headcount. A more accurate estimate is that binge eaters represent anywhere from 20% to 40% of the dieting population. Buy vyvanse\nIf you’re a binge eater, you know it. For those of you who need a definition, it’s this. Food is rapidly eaten over a short period of a time, usually within an hour. Eaters are agitated during a binge, meaning they may be pacing, frequently getting up and down, or they may go out to buy food. Eaters experience a sense of being out-of-control with food and eat way beyond fullness, often to extreme discomfort. They often feel like they’re in an altered state or mind or trance. Binges are usually done in secret or at least out of sight of others. The difference between pigging out and binge eating is that binge eating occurs more frequently and regularly, at least once a week. And lastly, binge eaters often feel shame and guilt after an eating episode.\nBinge eating disorder (or BED) was just recently designated as an official mental illness in 2013. Since then it’s been aggressively promoted on TV as a real, treatable disease by Shire Pharmaceuticals. Shire, of course, is the maker of Vyvanse, the first drug specifically developed to curb binge eating. Because it’s an amphetamine, Vyvanse is a controlled substance and has a high potential for abuse and dependence. Vyvanse works by elevating levels of endorphins and other neurotransmitters, which can make you happier. The drug, however, can also work against you by causing anxiety, increasing blood pressure, heart rate and other undesirable side effects.\nIn addition to the side effects, reliance on a drug treatment is highly controversial because it doesn’t cure the problem, it just masks it. In fact, all treatments for Binge Eating Disorder are highly controversial. There are two basic but radically different theories to consider.\nTheory #1 is that binge eating is a food addiction, and like all other addictions, the cure is to abstain from the substances that make you crazy with food and that you can’t control. This includes all foods made with caloric sweeteners and wheat products. It may also include abstaining from alcohol because alcohol enhances appetite and allows eaters to forget the intention to abstain from trigger foods. People who believe they’re food addicts have great success with this approach and quickly normalize their eating practices and weight.\nTheory #2 is that binge eating is an emotional disorder, and underlying emotional problems have to be solved. The specific foods you eat have little role in treatment. Even more, avoiding so-called trigger foods is thought to exacerbate binge eating, and the “all or nothing ” approach of abstinence is perceived as extreme and unreasonable. The most popular treatments are cognitive behavior therapy (CBT), other psychological treatments, or some combination of talk therapy and drugs.\nCBT is a particular form of talk therapy that relies on educational and behavioral interventions to teach eaters how to regain control over eating. It has a strong clinical success record and is often featured in many psychologically-oriented books about binge eating. The biggest complaint with all talk therapies is that they don’t always result in weight or shape change, and they can also take a long time.\nWhich cure is best? You have to choose for yourself. A practical and useful way to get started on this is to consider conducting an experiment of one. The easiest approach is to focus on diet. Simply abstain from foods made with caloric sweeteners and wheat for one week, and see if it’s too hard or if it makes a difference. After your short one-week experiment, you’ll have a baseline reference point for making a longer-term decision.", "label": "No"}
{"text": "Preventing Mosquito Problems\nSevere illness is arising from mosquito bites is on the increase in Australia and it is not just a northern Australian problem. Keep updated on the recent spread of mosquito-borne birth deformities being reported around the globe.\n1. Remove Mosquito Habitats Around Your Home and Workplace\nMosquitoes need water for 2 stages of their life cycle so it is important that you monitor any standing water sources around your place. Here are some tips:\n• Get rid of any unintended standing water in gutters that may be clogged by leaf litter, old tyres, buckets, toys etc – any other container that this small creature can breed.\n• Empty completely and change the water in bird baths, fountains, wading pools and pot plant base trays often i.e. at least once a week to eliminate any mosquito habitats.\n• Keep swimming pool water and spa water treated and circulating.\n• Think like a mosquito – look for potential breeding grounds.\n2. Prevent Your Exposure to Mosquitoes\n• Use mosquito repellents when necessary and follow directions and precautions closely.\n• If in an area where mosquitoes are known to be e.g. damp areas, mangroves etc. wear appropriate clothing. Cover any gaps in your clothing when mosquitoes can access your skin.\n• In areas with high mosquito populations (e.g. the tropics – rain forest or coastal strips) it is advisable to wear long pants and long sleeves and use head nets if venturing out to bushwalk or go fishing.\n• In areas where there is a mosquito-borne disease warning in effect, it is advisable to stay indoors at sunrise and sunset. It is at these times that mosquitoes are most active.\n3. Use Structural Barriers to Protect Your Family from Mosquito-Borne Diseases\n• Fill the gaps in window frames, doors and walls to prevent them from entering.\n• Check that your fly screens are truly insect-proof – no holes, no gaps.\n• Completely cover baby cots, carriers and prams with netting.\n• Install mosquito nets above the children’s beds – they can be made to look great and an exciting hide-away for the child.\n• Sling a mosquito net from a tree branch in your garden over summer. Ensure it can be taken down easily at the end of the day. Create an inviting space under the net this would entice anyone outdoors.\nJan Couper M.Ed.,M.Env.", "label": "No"}

{"text": "- This topic is empty.\nThe ocean is a vast body of saltwater that covers over 70% of the Earth’s surface. It is home to a diverse range of marine life, from tiny plankton to enormous whales. The ocean plays a critical role in regulating the Earth’s climate and weather patterns, as well as in providing food, transportation, and recreation for humans.\nThe ocean is divided into five major basins: the Pacific, Atlantic, Indian, Southern, and Arctic. It is also made up of different zones, including the sunlit zone, twilight zone, midnight zone, and abyssal zone, each with its unique environmental conditions and species.\nThe ocean faces many challenges, including overfishing, pollution, climate change, and habitat destruction. These issues threaten the health of the ocean and the many species that call it home, making it crucial for humans to take action to protect and preserve this valuable resource.\nThe ocean ecosystem is a complex web of interconnected organisms and environments that exists within the ocean. It encompasses everything from the smallest plankton to the largest whales, and from the sunlit surface waters to the dark, cold depths of the abyss.\nThe ocean ecosystem is divided into different zones based on depth and light availability. The uppermost layer is the euphotic zone, where sunlight penetrates and supports photosynthesis by plants and algae. This zone is home to many different types of marine life, including fish, sea turtles, dolphins, and sharks.\nBelow the euphotic zone is the twilight zone, where light is limited but some organisms are still able to survive. Here, you can find bioluminescent animals, like lanternfish, that produce their own light to attract prey or mates.\nThe midnight zone is the deepest part of the ocean, where sunlight cannot penetrate. This zone is home to some of the most unusual and fascinating creatures on Earth, such as the anglerfish, which lures prey with a bioluminescent “fishing lure” attached to its head.\nAt the very bottom of the ocean lies the abyssal zone, which is characterized by extreme cold and high pressure. Despite these harsh conditions, a variety of organisms, such as giant tube worms and deep-sea crabs, have adapted to thrive in this environment.\nThe ocean ecosystem is a delicate balance, and human activities, such as overfishing and pollution, can disrupt this balance and have a negative impact on marine life.\nWonders of the Ocean\n- Coral reefs – These underwater structures are home to an incredible diversity of marine life, and are often referred to as the “rainforests of the sea.”\n- Bioluminescence – Some species of marine organisms are able to produce light, creating beautiful displays of bioluminescence in the ocean.\n- Deep-sea trenches – The ocean is home to some of the deepest parts of the Earth, including the Mariana Trench, which reaches depths of over 35,000 feet.\n- Whales – These magnificent creatures are the largest animals on Earth, and can be found in oceans all around the world.\n- Underwater volcanoes – The ocean floor is dotted with volcanic vents and geysers, which support unique ecosystems that are not found anywhere else on Earth.\n- Sea turtles – These ancient creatures have been around for over 100 million years, and are known for their incredible journeys across the ocean.\n- Giant squid – These elusive creatures are the largest invertebrates on Earth, and are rarely seen by humans.\n- Shipwrecks – The ocean is home to countless shipwrecks, many of which have become artificial reefs that support a wide variety of marine life.\nTreasures of the Ocean\n- Shipwrecks – The ocean is littered with thousands of shipwrecks, many of which still contain valuable artifacts, such as gold, silver, and precious gems.\n- Lost cities – There are several underwater cities that have been lost to the ocean over time, including the ancient city of Alexandria in Egypt and the legendary city of Atlantis.\n- Pearls – Pearls are formed by oysters and other mollusks in the ocean, and have been highly valued for their beauty for centuries.\n- Sunken treasure – Pirates and other adventurers have hidden treasure in the ocean for centuries, and many of these treasures are still waiting to be discovered.\n- Fossils – The ocean floor is rich with fossils, including those of extinct marine creatures, such as ammonites and mosasaurs.\n- Precious metals – In addition to shipwrecks, the ocean also contains vast deposits of precious metals, such as gold and silver, which can be extracted using specialized equipment.\nLost cities of the ocean\n- Atlantis – Perhaps the most famous of all the lost cities, Atlantis was first mentioned by the ancient Greek philosopher Plato over 2,300 years ago. According to Plato’s account, Atlantis was a powerful and advanced civilization that sank beneath the waves in a single day and night.\n- Thonis-Heracleion – This ancient Egyptian city was submerged for over 1,000 years before being rediscovered by archaeologists in 2000. Located in the Bay of Aboukir, Thonis-Heracleion was a thriving port city that was once a center of trade and commerce in the region.\n- Dwarka – According to Hindu mythology, the city of Dwarka was built by the god Krishna over 5,000 years ago. The city was said to be home to over a million people and was considered one of the seven most sacred sites in India. Today, the remains of Dwarka are believed to lie off the coast of Gujarat in western India.\n- Yonaguni Monument – This underwater structure off the coast of Japan has been the subject of much debate and speculation. Some researchers believe that it is a natural rock formation, while others believe that it was built by an ancient civilization.\n- Pavlopetri – Located off the coast of Greece, Pavlopetri is believed to be the oldest known underwater city in the world.

{"text": "Cannabinoids are active compounds that are found in the cannabis plant and are responsible for its medicinal and recreational properties. You may have heard about the main cannabinoids, cannabidiol (CBD) and tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), but there are many other cannabinoids that are equally important.\nWhat are cannabinoids?\nThere could be as many as 113 different cannabinoids found in the cannabis plant. The most researched of these cannabinoids are by far CBD and THC. The cannabinoids in the marijuana plant are stored in the trichomes, or the crystals of the plant. It’s the trichomes in the cannabis buds that give the plant a specific shine. Most growers focus on producing strains of cannabis with high levels of THC. It’s THC that is responsible for the euphoric “high” feeling you get when you consume marijuana. The other main cannabinoid is CBD. It doesn’t have any psychoactive properties and is 100% legal in many countries around the world. Some other exciting cannabinoids are cannabigerol (CBG), cannabinol (CBN), and cannabichromene (CBC).\nThe endocannabinoid system and how it works\nEndocannabinoids are cannabinoids which are naturally produced by the body. The word “endo” stands for endogenous, which means originating within the body. However, these cannabinoids are different from the cannabinoids found in cannabis, even though they share similar effects and properties. They interact with the same pathways in the body, brain and the central nervous system. These pathways are known as receptors. The most studied endocannabinoids are the anandamide and 2-AG. Some of the other endocannabinoids are Noladin Ether, Virodhamine, and N-Arachidonoyl dopamine (NADA). All those endocannabinoids are responsible for maintaining balance within the body.\nThe endocannabinoid system is made up of cannabinoids and cannabinoid receptors. The cannabinoids are like keys. They bind with the cannabinoid receptor, unlocking them and causing changes to cell functioning. These changes lead to a variety of different effects throughout the body. When you consume cannabis, THC and CBD enter the endocannabinoid system and bind with the cannabinoid receptors. The two types of cannabinoid receptors are CB1 and CB2. Most of the CB1 receptors, which THC binds with, are found in the brain. CB2 receptors, on the other hand, are spread out throughout the rest of the body, and it’s those receptors that CBD binds with.\nWhat are the major cannabinoids?\nThere are two main types of cannabinoids. Endogenous cannabinoids, which are produced naturally in our bodies and Exogenous cannabinoids, also known as phytocannabinoids because of their origin from plants.\n- Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC)\nThis cannabinoid is most commonly associated with marijuana. It can be found in marijuana concentrations of up to 30-40%.\n- Cannabidiol (CBD)\nThe next major marijuana cannabinoid is CBD. It has no psychoactive properties and in fact works to lower the effects of THC.\n- Cannabinol (CBN)\nCBN isn’t produced by the cannabis plant but is a result of incorrect storage of THC. When THC is exposed to excessive light or heat, the chemical structure changes and it becomes CBN.\n- Cannabichromene (CBC)\nCBC often appears as the second most prevalent cannabinoid after THC. Just like CBD, CBC does not bind with the CB1 receptors in the brain, which means that it has no psychoactive properties.\n- Cannabigerol (CBG)\nThrough the enzymatic process, CBG acts as a foundation for the other cannabinoids found in marijuana.\n- 2-Arachidonoylglycerol (2-AG)\n2-AG is an endocannabinoid that activates the CB1 receptors that are located in the brain. 2-AG is also produced by the body and metabolized after.\nAnandamide is another endocannabinoid, found in the human body. Many scientists believe that it is responsible for the “high” levels of adrenalin many people experience after they workout. It plays a major role in our moods and how we feel.\nCannabinoids are a diverse group of molecules. They share common character traits. Endocannabinoids are produced naturally by our bodies and interact with the endocannabinoid system, binding with our CB1 and CB2 receptors. These interactions produce different reactions, all of which can have positive effects on our health and well being.\nWhat are phytocannabinoids?\nPhytocannabinoids are cannabinoids, which are found in both cannabis and hemp. There is a big movement in the scientific community in favor of the medicinal properties of phytocannabinoids. Many countries around the world have started to question the way they view cannabis and its many applications.\nAlthough marijuana was praised for its medicinal properties for centuries, early in the 1900s it was classified by many governments as a narcotic. Only recently have countries turned back to marijuana and its benefits.\nSome of the more popular phytocannabinoids are (THC), and cannabidiol (CBD). All cannabinoids which are produced by plants are known as phytocannabinoids.\nSome researchers believe that it was a hemp-based diet which allowed our ancestors tens of thousands of years ago to develop an intricate endocannabinoid system we enjoy today.\nsome of the more common phytocannabinoids and how they react and interact with our endocannabinoid system:\nCBG is considered to be the precursor to most of the other phytocannabinoids. It is believed that it has a wide variety of different therapeutic applications, proving it to be more effective than CBD in managing neuropathic pain. Enzymes located in the trichomes convert CBG into one of the 112 other cannabinoids found in the cannabis plant. After this process, there is very little CBG remaining in the mature plant, normally less than 1%. Read more about CBG here.\nCBDV is another non-psychoactive cannabinoid. It is an analogue of CBD and is made out of 3-carbon molecules (propyl), instead of 5-carbon ones (pentyl). CBDV shares many characteristics with CBD, and currently research into its use as an anticonvulsant is being undertaken.\nOne of the more well-known phytocannabinoids, CBD has the widest therapeutic application and is currently one of the most studied phytocannabinoids. It’s non-psychoactive, which means that it won’t get you high, like THC would. This makes it legal to buy and possess CBD in many countries around the world. It is currently used to help a variety of different conditions. CBD is utilized as an anticonvulsant, immunostimulant, anti-depressant, antioxidant and as antitumor, anti-psychotic, anti-inflammatory, anti-insomnia, anxiolytic.\nTHC is probably the most well-known phytocannabinoid of them all! When you consume marijuana and get high, the THC in the marijuana is what is affecting you. When the THC binds with the CB1 receptors in the brain, it stimulates the release of endocannabinoids which regulate both our mood and our appetite. THC is also a powerful anti-inflammation remedy, as its efficacy is twenty times bigger than that of an aspirin. THC`s psychoactive properties led to lobbying to have cannabis classified as a narcotic. Read more about THC here.\nCBC is another therapeutic phytocannabinoid found in cannabis. It is considered by many to be the most powerful anti-cancer cannabinoid. CBC interacts with CB2 receptors in tumor cells, and from that interaction surface antigens are produced. Another interesting fact about CBC is that it is the only phytocannabinoid which is believed to stimulate the growth of brain cells. This wasn’t even considered possible until the late 90s! So this belief has fueled research into the use of CBC as an anti-Alzheimer therapy.\nPhytocannabinoids play an important role in our endocannabinoid system, but research into them is still in an early stage, because of its impediment in the last century. As the legalization of cannabis and its reclassification for medicinal purposes continues to grow, more and more research and studies into it are being undertaken.\nWhat is THC?\nTHC, or tetrahydrocannabinol, is the compound found in cannabis or marijuana that’s responsible for high levels of stimulation on the human brain. An Israeli chemist, Raphael Mechoulam, first isolated and synthesized THC in 1964 by using Lebanese Hashish. His work lead to the discovery of other cannabinoids and also enhanced the research into the endocannabinoid system and its receptors. You may be surprised to learn that our bodies all produce endocannabinoids naturally. One does not even need to smoke cannabis!\nTHC binds to the receptors in our brain and central nervous system, creating a chemical reaction which many people experience as a psychoactive high. There are also many other reactions which scientists are only just beginning to understand.\nWhen you first experiment with THC, it’s important to take it slowly. Some people may find that using THC can have a relaxing and calming effect; other people experience higher levels of anxiety and paranoia. One interesting fact is that CBD, another cannabinoid found in cannabis, can help lessen the effects of THC. Different cannabis strains will give you different reactions, so it is important to take small steps until you understand how your body reacts.\nEffects of THC\nSome of the short-term effects of THC usage may include:\n- Pain relief\n- Memory impairment\n- Increased heart rate\n- Dry mouth\n- Red eyes\n- Slowed perception of time\n- “Couch-lock,” or feeling heavy\nTHC has many medicinal benefits that are only now being researched. Hundreds of studies into cannabis and its health benefits are being undertaken. Cannabis` rise in popularity and its legalization for medicinal use have been fueling innovation across the medical and pharmaceutical industries.\nHealth benefits of THC\nThere are several medical conditions, the key to which may be THC:\n- Neuropathic and chronic pain\n- Crohn’s disease\n- Alzheimer’s disease\n- Multiple sclerosis\n- Sleep apnea\n- Appetite loss\nWhat is CBD?\nCBD or cannabidiol is extracted from the hemp or marijuana plants. It is one of the most important cannabinoids that is found in the cannabis plant. It is not like THC that will cause psychoactive effects.\nYou will not get high with CBD\nThe only thing common between CBD and THC is that they are both cannabinoids and they affect the receptors of the brain. They are naturally produced by the human body as well which makes them the part of the endocannabinoid system. It helps to maintain different types of physiological processes. These receptors are naturally found in the nervous and immune system of our body. Once CBD interacts with these receptors you get the effects.\nNot only CBD is different from THC, but also research has claimed that CBD can help control the more negative effects of THC like anxiety and paranoia. That is why individuals who are looking for weed with THC will prefer to have the strain that has a reliable ratio of CBD and THC. It helps to maintain the effects THC has on our body and mind.\nWhat does CBD do?\nIt is important to turn our attention towards what this little yet powerful compound can do before we can get into further details. Recently, CBD is dominating the conversations related to applications od cannabis and CBD in the medical field. However, it does not mean that recreational users do not value the product. There are some unique qualities in CBD that can make it an important part of our daily routine. Using CBD is a natural way of reducing stress and pain. It can help the body feel more relaxed and comfortable by affecting the release of receptors in the Central Nervous System.\nWhat is CBN?\nLike tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), and cannabidiol (CBD), cannabinol (CBN) is one of those 113 cannabinoids. CBN`s properties are similar to those of CBD, because CBN has no psychoactive effect on the brain. So, if your goal is to get high, you may want to pass on CBN. Nevertheless, CBN has other seriously interesting and potentially life-changing medicinal benefits.\nCBN is often found in higher amounts in older cannabis plants. As THC ages, or is exposed to oxygen over time, it switches to CBN. So, if you leave cannabis plants unattended for months or years, it is very likely for the THC in them to turn into CBN.\nSome of the benefits which scientists and researchers, who are studying CBN, have discovered, include:\n- Pain relief\n- Promoting the growth of bone cells\n- As an appetite stimulant\nOne of the most promising aspects of CBN is its sedative effect. Research into CBN`s properties has gone so far as to suggest that 5mg of CBN could be the equivalent to a 10mg dose of diazepam. CBN`s benefit over diazepam is that the former is a plant-based pain relief and sleeping aid, and the chances of addiction are minimal. Many opioid-based pain relief products also come with severe side-effects and a higher chance of addiction, especially among younger people.\nIf you like to get a good night’s sleep by using cannabis, a little bit of CBN could be one of the most effective sleeping aids available! Unlike THC, CBN does not affect your brain and will leave you with a clear head. Still, there is a downside to CBN - it isn’t present in nature the same amounts as THC or CBD. While cannabis flower or bud can contain up to 30% THC or CBD, it usually contains less than 1% CBN.\nWhat is CBC?\nLike CBD, CBC isn’t going to get you high or leave you “couch locked” as THC does. It’s a non-psychoactive compound, but nevertheless has a variety of potential health benefits. CBC binds poorly with the CB1 receptors located in the brain. It is more likely to bind with the vanilloid receptor 1 (TRPV1) and the transient receptor potential ankyrin 1 (TRPA1), which have been linked to pain perception. When you consume CBC and it binds with these receptors, the body`s natural number of endocannabinoids increases.\nLike other cannabinoids and endocannabinoids, scientists believe that CBC works better when it’s combined with variant cannabinoids. CBC`s reaction to CBD and THC has not yet been researched properly. The growth in the legal medical marijuana markets and the progressive legalization of marijuana around the world is fueling a rise in research and studies.\nCBC’s medicinal potential\nWhile research is still ongoing, there are already some potential medicinal benefits linked to CBC. While marijuana has been used medicinally for centuries, it’s classification as a narcotic in the early 1900s has stunted the research on how it works with our bodies and how cannabinoids affect our endocannabinoid systems.\nCBC and cancer\nCBC could potentially be a very powerful ally in the fight against cancer. This is because CBC interacts with our endocannabinoid system and with anandamide. Anandamide has proved as vital in the fight against breast cancer and CBC could lower its rate of absorption into the bloodstream, which means that anandamide could circulate throughout our bodies for longer periods of time. One study conducted recently showed that CBC could also slow and inhibit inflammation and tumor growth.\nCBC pain and inflammation\nCBC blocks both inflammation and pain, both of which are associated with osteoarthritis. Using cannabinoids can be a healthier way to handle pain and inflammation, avoiding the nasty side effects associated with prescription medicine and opioid pain relief.\nCBC and brain cells\nA study from 2013 showed that CBC had a positive effect on mice`s neural stem progenitor cells (NSP cells). Those cells are essential for the healthy functioning of the brain. This could be an important breakthrough in the fight against Alzheimer’s Disease.\nCBC and acne\nMany cannabinoids, including CBC, have shown to be powerful inhibitors for acne and other skin conditions.\nCBC and depression\nCBC works well when partnered with THC and CBD as a weapon to help fight mental health conditions such as anxiety, stress, ADD, PTSD, and depression.\nWhat is CBG?\nCBG is similar to CBD in that it contains no psychoactive properties and won’t give you that feeling that you experience when you consume strains of cannabis with high levels of THC. CBG is usually only found at very low levels, approximately 1%.\nThe interesting thing about CBG is that both CBD and THC start out as CBG. The cannabis plant produces cannabigerolic acid (CBGA), which is the precursor to three of the most important cannabinoid acids - THCA, CBDA, and CBCA. The enzymes within the cannabis plant turn the CBGA into either CBDA or THCA. The respective acid is then activated by light or heat and turns into CBD or THC. With most strains of marijuana, the CBGA is converted quickly into CBDA or THCA.\nIn an attempt to get strains of cannabis with higher amounts of CBG, growers and breeders have been experimenting with cross-breeding of plants and genetic manipulation. In order to recover more CBG from cannabis plants, the latter need to be harvested in a certain time during the growing cycle. Growers need to pinpoint when the maximum amount of CBG is present, which is normally six weeks into the eight-week growing cycle.\nThe potential medical benefits of CBG\nCBG influences specific areas of the body, and there has been a lot of promising research focused on this area.\nCBG and Glaucoma\nCBG is a very powerful vasodilator and has many neuroprotective benefits. As there are endocannabinoid receptors located within the eye structure, it is believed that CBG is one of the best cannabinoids for supporting glaucoma by decreasing the intraocular pressure in the eyes.\nCBG and Inflammatory Bowel Disease\nDuring a recent study on mice, scientists discovered that CBG was effective in decreasing the inflammation characteristics of inflammatory bowel disease.\nCBG and Huntington’s Disease\nHuntington’s disease is characterized by nerve cell degeneration and damage in the brain. During a 2015 study on mice, researchers discovered that CBG protected the neurons and hindered the nerve cell degeneration.\nCBG and Cancer\nCBG has, too, proved valuable in the fight against cancer – it blocks the receptors which are responsible for cancer cell growth and inhibits that growth.\nWhat is 2-AG?\nBeing one of the most abundant endocannabinoids in our bodies, 2-AG plays an important role in the regulation of appetite, pain management, and immune system functions. There are several different ways to boost the levels of 2-AG in your body. Cannabis is one of those options, but there are also ways to help your endocannabinoid system without cannabis:\nBecause 2-AG is essentially made from fats, or metabolized linoleic acid, you can eat foods high in linoleic acids like eggs, poultry, grains, and hemp seeds. To boost your levels of 2-AG, diets high in omega-6 essential fatty acids is a great way to start. Remember to consume equal amounts of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids to get the most benefits for your endocannabinoid system.\nSome research suggests that probiotics help to increase the function of CB2 receptors located in the gut. You can eat pre-biotic foods like leeks, artichoke, onions, and garlic. It also helps to eat a lot of high-fiber green vegetables.\nSleep is an essential ingredient in maintaining the balance in your endocannabinoid system. Make sure that you are getting regular amounts of good sleep every day.\nWhat is Anandamide?\nN-arachidonoylethanolamine (Anandamide), is an endogenous analog of THC. Interestingly enough, anandamide is also known as the “bliss molecule”, or the body`s own version of THC. Anandamide is produced by our bodies and is very similar to THC in its chemical content. It binds itself to the same receptors in the endocannabinoid system and could act as neurotransmitter and mood-enhancer.\nUnlike THC, CBD, CBN, anandamide is an endocannabinoid. Cannabinoids are found in the cannabis plant, while endocannabinoids are produced naturally by our bodies. Anandamide is produced inside the cell membranes and tissues of the body. It’s synthesized from N-arachidonoyl phosphatidylethanolamine and broken down by fatty acid amide hydrolase, an enzyme.\nAnandamide interacts and binds with both types of cannabinoid receptors in the brain (CB1 and CB2). Anandamide is considered a fragile compound as, once absorbed by the body, it quickly breaks down to its components. Anandamide is produced in the part of the brain which is responsible for memory, movement control, and advanced thought processes. Moreover, anandamide plays an important part in many physiological processes such as managing the appetite, managing pain, as well as fertility.\nHow anandamide works in the human body\nAnandamide works by interacting with the receptors which are part of the endocannabinoid system. These receptors are located in the brain and throughout the torso. They act like locks, and the cannabinoids and endocannabinoids act like keys to these locks – the cannabinoids and endocannabinoids bind with the receptors and create chemical reactions. In the central nervous system, the anandamide mostly binds with CB1 receptors, while in the peripheral it binds with CB2 receptors.\nAccording to an article published in the Journal of Clinical Investigation in 2005, anandamide was believed to help promote neurogenesis. The article stated that anandamide, among other cannabinoids, promoted neurogenesis in the part of the brain which is responsible for managing our memory, our ability to learn, and our emotions. They were also shown to have some antidepressant-like effects.\nA 2007 paper which was published by the research department at the University of Michigan stated that anandamide plays an important role in establishing our eating habits and in generating feelings of pleasure and motivation. The study showed that a certain amount of anandamide, injected into the forebrain of a mouse, later doubles the span of its reaction when it received a reward for completing a set task. Nevertheless, the anandamide did not affect the mice`s reaction when they didn’t receive a reward.\nOther studies, carried out at the University of California and the University of Connecticut, discovered that increased amounts of anandamide in the human brain could help with the relief of the symptoms associated with anxiety and depression.\nWays to increase anandamide levels in your body\n- Eating dark chocolate\n- Eating truffles", "label": "No"}

{"text": "Today, I saw seven patients - middle schoolers, high school students, and college students. Although they were all there for different anxiety problems, one theme ran through my day: anxiety about Election Day. Even my youngest patients have been voicing concerns for months about who is going to win the election and what the consequences of that outcome will be. These worries seemed particularly palpable today, with only two weeks to go until Election Day.\nThe New York Times published an interesting article about last week called, Talking to Your Therapist about Election Anxiety. It is a great read, but I felt it was important to write about some tips for kids and teens who might feel even more anxious than adults because they can't even vote!\n-Acknowledge what our kids are feeling. Anxiety is all about the unknown and at this late date, the probable outcome of this election seems to depend on the source that one consults! Not knowing makes people feel uncomfortable. It is okay to say to kids, \"Yup, it is hard to not know. It makes me feel uncomfortable and worried too.\"\n-And, to the extent that we can, boss back that anxiety! Although we do not know who will win the election until Election Day, we can remind ourselves that our government is set up to prevent really bad things from happening. Kids have been expressing their worries in my office for months and I find that we can boss back many of these worries by saying, \"Not gonna to happen!\". The media has stirred up so many worries and kids need a reminder that there are checks and balances in place to prevent many bad outcomes.\n-For some kids, DOING something in service of the electoral process makes them feel more empowered. One of the kids I met with today decided she would like to volunteer for her preferred candidate with her mom over the next few weeks. Many kids value going into the voting booth with their parents. Although they aren't casting a vote per se, they feel they have contributed by participating in the family vote.\n-For other kids, tuning out is a better strategy. If reading the newspaper or watching the news is causing your child undue anxiety, it is okay to encourage him or her to stop for the next two weeks. If Election Day is going to be excruciating (especially for kids who have the day off of school), make a plan to keep your kids' brains busy with something else. Go to a museum. See a movie. Set up some playdates. Logging on to the computer every few minutes to check the polls is likely not a good strategy for making it through the day (for adults or kids!).\n-Coach kids through the complex social aspects of this election season. Many of the kids who I work with have told me about conflicts among friends due to the candidate that their families are supporting. Some kids have told me that they have noticed an increase in disrespectful behavior toward girls and female teachers during this election season. Kids need our help with these situations. The best way to do this is to model appropriate discourse with our own friends, relatives, and work colleagues. We need to model to our kids how to respect people who hold different opinions than us.\nYesterday, I attended the Scholastic book fair at our school with my almost 9-year old son. Although he is drawn to those huge, pricey Star Wars books that come with mini-figures, we had already agreed that these were off limits! I find it interesting that he is drawn to totally different books than my 11-year old daughter. Whereas she loves fiction, he wants to learn about history, wars, how things work, and so on. This brings up a controversy in my house -- does reading fiction build better reading skills than reading non-fiction?\nThis morning, I decided to turn to the literature to find out. Here is what I learned:\nSmith was diagnosed at that age with OCD—obsessive compulsive disorder. But he didn’t receive proper treatment for his mental disorder until he was 31 years old, when he came to McLean Hospital’s Obsessive Compulsive Disorder Institute.\n“I lost 31 years of my life to some extent, so I really feel like I was reborn after [getting treatment] because living in the moment was completely foreign to me,” he said. “When I got better, I felt like an alien. It’s really strange, and it’s still amazing.”\nNow 38, Smith returned Boston on Friday as a spokesperson for the International OCD Foundation, which has its headquarters here. The IOCDF is celebrating its 30 years as an organization and just commemorated the end of OCD awareness week.\nThe IOCDF has made great strides for people with OCD in the last 30 years, but it still has a long way to go, said Executive Director Jeff Szymanski.\nThe IOCD started in Connecticut where a group of people with OCD participated in one of the first studies about the disorder, Szymanski said. The foundation moved to Boston in 2008 to be closer to its vibrant medical community because the organization focuses on financing OCD research. (Although there is no cure for OCD, the compulsions can be managed).\nThough the foundation has made great strides in terms of growing OCD awareness—more than 1,600 people attended IOCDF’s annual conference this year, four times as many as the first conference in 1993—Szymanski said the mental health community still struggles with the diagnosis and how to treat it.\nSmith was lucky that he was correctly diagnosed so early. More than 3 million adults live with OCD in the United States, but physicians misdiagnose patients 50 percent of the time and mental health professionals a third of the time, Szymanski said. It took Smith 17 years to receive proper treatment, and that’s a common reality.\nSzymanski said the average time between a diagnosis and proper care is between 14 to 17 years.\n“If you had cancer, who is waiting 14 to 17 years? It’s not acceptable anywhere,” he said. “Yet, it’s the state of things with OCD.”\nBoth Smith and Szymanski highlighted how OCD has been warped in the public’s eye: It’s not about being “neat” or liking things a certain way. It’s a debilitating medical disability stemming from obsessive, anxious thoughts.\n“When we’re in our rituals, we don’t want to be doing them,” Smith said. “No one wants to wash their hands 100 times. We know it’s irrational, but we believe we have to do it anyway.”\nAfter his diagnoses, Smith met with multiple different therapists, but none of them had ever specialized in OCD treatment or were able to refer him to a specialist. “What I mean by proper treatment is that a general psychologist is not equipped to treat OCD but roughly most of them think that they are,” Smith said. “And attempting to treat OCD by doing psychotherapy, called talk therapy—well, what happened was it ultimately made my OCD worse and harder to treat in the future.”\nSzymanski worked as a clinical psychologist at McLean’s OCD Institute before joining the foundation. He explained that while most therapists are trained in psychotherapy—where you talk through your issues and try to uncover how they may have started in your childhood—that’s actually damaging for OCD patients.\nInstead, professionals need to be trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and specifically a subset of that called “exposure and response prevention.” In that practice, those with OCD are forced to confront the very things giving them anxiety and prompt their obsessive thoughts. Instead of giving in to their compulsions to ease their anxiety, the patient is forced to sit with it.\nIf someone’s OCD centers around germs, for example, the therapy would involve them touching the floor or something else they consider germ-infested without allowing them to wash their hands repeatedly. “The best way to get over a phobia is to repeatedly expose yourself, and over time your brain stops putting out those anxiety signals,” Szymanski said.\nSmith, who underwent the therapy while living in Boston, described it as “torture.” But it’s the reason he’s alive today, he said. He had told his mom that if he ever got better—and for a while, he never thought he would—he wanted to help others like him.\n“Coming back to Boston and being able to speak in Boston, where I struggled so much, on a national stage, it’s full circle and emotional, but it’s also extremely gratifying,” said Smith, who now lives in Los Angeles where he works as an actor. “This is where I discovered the strength and power of the human condition. This is where I learned what I was made of as a person.”\nI am a licensed psychologist working with kids, teens, and adults with anxiety disorders.", "label": "No"}
{"text": "Written by Davina Duffield - RVN\nYou may have heard in the news recently about a disease in dogs called Babesiosis caused by the microscopic parasite Babesia transmitted by ticks. The disease is only spread by the Dermacentor tick which, although the species is usually only found in Europe, has recently spread into the UK.\nBabesiosis can lead to red blood cell destruction and can produce clinical signs such as lethargy, pale gums, red urine and fever. If you notice any of these signs in your pet or that your pet is unwell, please see a vet immediately.\nThe best way to avoid the disease is to protect your dog against ticks. It can be transmitted very quickly (within 24 hours), so we recommend using a fast-acting prescription-strength tick product such as Bravecto, Seresto or Advantix. Although Babesiosis is very rare in cats, we still advise prompt tick removal to avoid any potential infections in our feline friends.\nAlthough serious, it can be treated however severe cases may require blood transfusions and further complicated treatments. We can, however, perform a blood test to confirm or rule out infection in any dogs showing potential symptoms.\nPlease be aware that the latest confirmed case is in our local area, in Bramcote, Nottingham so further precautions should be taken to protect your furry friends.\nIf you would like some advice about tick treatments or need help removing a tick from your pet, please call us ASAP at either our Ilkeston branch on 0115 9329322 or our West Hallam branch on 0115 9326056.

{"text": "After a great many years of neglect, photographic historians are gradually uncovering and sharing the individual histories of early women photographers whose lives and work have been languishing in the shadows. As yesterday marked the 125th anniversary of the death of Henrietta Ross (1815-94), this seemed a good occasion to write a little about her life and photographic activities. Some of this has appeared in my 2004 article on Horatio Ross, and Henrietta will be treated in more detail if I ever manage to finish writing Horatio’s biography, but in the meantime I have put together this brief sketch in the hope that it interest some readers.\nHenrietta Macrae was born on 17 April 1815 in Demerara, an island off the north east coast of Brazil which was ceded to Great Britain under the terms of the Anglo-Dutch Treaty. Her father, Colin Macrae (1779–1854), had helped broker the treaty, which was signed in London on 13 August 1814. Colin hailed from the West Highlands: his parents were Farquhar Macrae of Inverinate, and Mary, daughter of Alexander Mackenzie of Davochmaluack. As head of the Inverinate branch of the family he had a rightful claim to be recognized as Chief of the Clan Macrae. Like many young Scotsmen he sailed abroad to seek his fortune, finding work as a merchant and planter in Demerara. He became a colonel in the colonial militia and was also appointed to the colonial legislation. His status is indicated by his marriage in 1805 to Charlotte Gertrude, daughter of John Cornelius Vandenheuvel, Dutch Governor of Demerara from 1765 to 1770.\nThey resided at Cumingsburg, in the capital Stabroek (later renamed Georgetown) where they raised a large family of eleven sons and daughters, many of whom went on to take prominent positions in the colonies. Some of their time was spent in New Haven, Connecticut. Colin Macrae published a short tract, Suggestion of a Plan for the Effectual Abolition of Slavery in all of the British West India Colonies in 1830 and soon after returned with his family to Scotland, where he divided his time between Edinburgh, Perth and Nairn. Henrietta was in her late teens when she met her future husband, Horatio Ross (1801-86), who was then MP for Aberdeen Burghs and one of the more remarkable men of his age.\nRoss’s accomplishments were extraordinary. His father Hercules – like Colin MacRae – had left Scotland as a young man to seek his fortune overseas. Through a blend of enterprising trade and marine activities bordering on piracy, Hercules Ross made a fortune in Jamaica, where he succeeded in winning the friendship of the young Captain Horatio Nelson, then a naval lieutenant. Hercules Ross returned to Scotland on his own 32-gun frigate, a wealthy man, and married Henrietta Parish, a beautiful heiress whose portrait was painted by Raeburn. They settled near Montrose on the east coast of Scotland and set about building Rossie Castle.\nThey had four daughters before a son was born in December 1801. Nelson agreed to be godfather to Ross’s son – hence the name Horatio. Hercules Ross was an enthusiast for the volunteer movement, and after an embarrassing scene when five year old Horatio ran away at the sound of guns on the lawn at Rossie, he had his valet fire guns daily over the head of his son. Horatio developed an interest in shooting and turned out to be a brilliant marksman. His feats with a gun became the thing of legend and he was reckoned the best pistol shot in the British Empire. In 1821 he joined the army but grew bored with barrack life and resigned in 1826. He was then able to devote himself fully to the sporting and shooting activities which were his joy, among the most notable of which include the first ever recorded steeplechase, a 97 mile non-stop walking competition and some astounding feats of marksmanship with both pistols and rifles. Some of these were documented in my article, ‘The Delight of their Existence’: the photography of Horatio Ross of Rossie (1801–86) Studies in Photography (2006) and will be treated at greater length in my biography of Horatio Ross, which I hope to complete one day.\nPerhaps in need of a greater focus for his talents he stood as a Reform candidate for Aberdeen burghs and was returned in 1831. His contributions to parliamentary debate reflect his interests in rural affairs – he spoke forcefully on matters such as game laws and hemp tax, but was also appointed to a commission of inquiry into child labour in factories. Other members included Robert Peel, who became Prime Minister a few years later and remained a friend. Ross was well-connected and moved among high social circles. He dined with Thomas Carlyle in London, corresponded with leading peers of the realm, and took part in adventurous sporting activities with aristocratic gentry from both Scotland and England.\nAlthough now in his early thirties, he had still not found a wife. Although it was later said that he sought a wealthy heiress, the woman with whom he fell in love was far from that. Henrietta Macrae was in her late teens when they met. She married Ross in Nairn on 26 December 1833. They had five sons: Horatio, Edward, Hercules, Colin and Robert Peel.\nHaving left politics in 1835, Ross was in possession of a little more leisure time when photography was invented four years later and unsurprisingly was one of the first in Scotland to take it up. Beginning with daguerreotypes, he switched to the calotype process, but continued to concentrate on landscape photography. Naturally, he was fond of hunting scenes, and took numerous photographs of deer both living and dead. Some of these photos were used by his friend Sir Edwin Landseer as an aid for painting. Henrietta appears in one of his earliest known images, an 1848 daguerreotype entitled ‘Craigdarroch’ which show her with a rifle in the (clearly posed) act of shooting a stag.\nMany of Horatio’s photographs are labelled Glen Dibidale, which was the site of a lodge in the Ross-shire highlands at which they spent much of their time. Some years ago I acquired Henrietta’s own Bible, which was signed and inscribed while she was staying. The Bible is of interest because it contains many marginal notes and pasted in scraps, giving some idea of Henrietta’s own spiritual inclinations.\nQueen Victoria’s residence on Deeside had made this part of the country increasingly popular, but Ross had already been shooting deer here for over two decades. Horatio and Henrietta Ross joined the royal household for a shooting party at Mar in October 1850; Her Majesty noted in her diary that ‘Mrs Ross is a very pretty ladylike person, & an excellent shot herself, but without any ‘prétention’. Her husband, no longer a young man, is considered the best deer stalker & best shot in Scotland.’ (Journal entry for 5 October 1850.)\nAs well as being an excellent shot, Henrietta soon began to try her hand at photography. Her husband did a great deal to promote Scottish photography and in 1856 Ross helped found the Photographic Society of Scotland (PSS). This gave a great boost to photographic activity in the country, bringing photographers together for meetings and talks, allowing them to discuss methods and arrange for annual exhibitions. Although she was not a member of the Society, Henrietta displayed her work at some of the PSS exhibitions, as the comments below indicate:\n‘Mrs Ross of Rossie’s works are not alone in showing that photography has been most succesfully pursued by the fair sex.’ Scotsman 21st December 1857\n‘Mr and Mrs Horatio Ross also exhibit a considerable number of well chosen river and burn scenes. To portray running water properly by the camera – more particularly falls – is a difficult matter; indeed, the latter cannot be accomplished with any degree of success – the rapid motion of the descending and broken water giving a blurred appearance to the picture. In No.348, ‘Highland Burn and Waterfall’ by Mrs H. Ross, may be observed what we regard as a great improvement when a better cannot be offered. The falling water is touched by the pencil, which gives it much better effect, and throws a spiritedness into the photograph which it would otherwise lack.’ – Caledonian Mercury, 25th December 1857\nRegarding another photograph on waxed paper, Cat. No. 350 ‘Highland Burn’ – probably the same image of that title that Henrietta exhibited at The British Association for the Advancement of Science’s meeting at Aberdeen in 1859 (cat 161, waxed paper) – critics noted its ‘pleasing landscape… sugar-white stones on the heathery brae… gleam on the water\nAt the third exhibition in December 1858 Henrietta Ross had on show a fine portrait of her husband entitled A Photographer in His Studio, depicting Ross in the act of preparing a collodion plate. Apart from its clever composition, making use of the overlapping ‘V’-shape of tripod legs, deer antlers and a funnel, the picture is also of interest for demonstrating the sheer size of a contemporary camera. This image was later designated a self-portrait by Horatio Ross, although there are grounds for disputing this.\nHenrietta’s sons inherited their parents’ shooting skills. Edward was the best, winning the Queens Prize at Wimbledon in 1860 and taking a prominent role in the development of the National Rifle Association. Colin and Hercules also joined their father at shooting competitions during the 1860s. The youngest son Peel took less interest in shooting and entered the Church, being ordained a priest of the Church of England in . He was Rector of Drayton Bassett from until when he retired to Inverness and took up residence at Druim, a short distance from where his parents lived at Rossie Lodge on the banks of the River Ness.\nHoratio and Henrietta celebrated their Golden Wedding anniversary in December 1883. Ross was now 82 but still succeeded in shooting a stag on his 83rdbirthday the following year. He was out for the Glorious Twelfth in 1884 but that was the last time. His health gradually declined, and he spent his last few months arranging his photographic negatives at Rossie Lodge before dying here in September 1886.\nHenrietta left Inverness for the other end of the country, moving down to Portsmouth to be near her eldest son Horatio Jr, who worked in the Bank of England in Portsmouth. She took a house at in Southsea where she died on 17 October 1894.\nThere is much more to be written about Henrietta, some of which I may do another day – this has been cobbled together somewhat in haste, as most of my boxes of research notes on Ross are inaccessible following the house move. Commemorative dates are always a good spur for writing something, however, and if I can raise a little more awareness of Henrietta Ross then this raggedy little blogpost will have done some good.", "label": "No"}
{"text": "Research on Landscape and Conservation- Yiyi Wei, BFA Glass, 2019\n“When we see land as a community to which we belong, we may begin to use it with love and respect.”\nA Sand County Almanac\nOn July 1st, the first day of my internship, I met with my WCS supervisor Liang in Dali, Yunnan, (an adjacent province to Tibet) where my first part of internship took place. Liang established a plan in the first month, aiming for an immersive understanding of conservation and its systems. In these first 10 days, I was assigned to dive in to books/articles and a presentation, in order to get an overview of wildlife conservation’s broad spectrum. For me, this part of research is constructed on an awareness of ‘Landscape’— its broadness, diversity, inclusiveness and the problems that it’s encountering.\nGeographically, Chang Tang is an area covers not only northern part of Tibet, but also western Qinghai Province, and the southern part of Xinjiang. At North, it goes as far as Kunlun mountain range and Kekexili; at East it includes Sanjiangyuan (literally means the source of three rivers, which are Yangtze, Yellow and Mekong.) Water flowing out from this region of Tibetan Plateau goes through China and countries of Southeast Asia, from Myanmar to Vietnam.\nLarger than 270,000 square miles, Chang Tang’s land is like a vessel, encompassing mountains that expand to neighbor countries, glaciers supporting human and wildlife as well as regulating temperature of the area, animals that are migrating or dispersing, and human being, who has been living in some locations for generation after generation.\nTibetan’s lives are deeply interlocked with the wildlife and the environment up at the high lands.\nPermafrost [rocks and soil that contains ice] determines distribution and quality of pasture, which determines the well being of herbivores like domestic yak and sheep, wild yak, chiru [Tibetan antelope], pika, Marco Polo sheep and more. These animals then affect carnivores such as wolf, Tibetan brown bear, fox, snow leopards and tigers. Glaciers, lakes, mountains and valleys create important habitats for migration and breeding.\nSpeaking broadly, pressing problems come from two major perspectives— climate change and human activity. Warmer temperature from climate change, a phenomenon that is responsible globally, creates negative feedback loops on the environment that supports life, affecting both domestic herds as well as wild animals. Melting glacier increases glacier avalanche that destroys animal habitats, meanwhile causing water level to rise up in lakes, flooding pastures and roads. Retreating glacier also leads to water shortages in villages that are dependent on it as water source. Increasingly warmer winter decreases vegetation’s growing season as well, contributing to pasture/meadow’s degradation.\nHuman activity on the other hand, such as hunting, mining, increasing population, as well as constructions like roads, fences and settlements are obstructions among wildlife habitats and migration routes. Developments that help improving the local living standards are crucial, nonetheless sometimes these developments can negatively affect human just as much as wildlife. Decrease in wild herbivores due to human activities mentioned above, results in carnivores preying on domestic herds, which leads to revenge-driven huntings toward carnivores. And this phenomenon is only one of the many.\nTherefore, I think maybe to conserve a species, is to preserve the soil that it’s stepping onto—the same soil that we are also standing on; to vitalize the food that it’s seeking for, and to understand the people whom it’s living with—the people who plays a crucial role in conservation with their behavior and awareness.\nHuman is an element of an interlocked, interconnected, interactive system that consists of many other elements. While we are affecting non-human entities, the consequences also reflect back to us. The first step to understanding conservation is to discern interconnected elements of the land— from ground to sky, from the disappearing animal to local government politics, from ecology to anthropology.", "label": "No"}
{"text": "“Courageous Leadership” by Bill Hybels reflects what he has learned and continues to learn about Christian leadership in his many years as pastor at Willow Creek Church. His message takes on eternal significance as he recounts his belief that “the local church is the hope of the world, and its future rests primarily in the hands of its leaders”. One of the great tragedies in our church today, according to Hybels, “is its failure to recognize the importance of the spiritual gift of leadership”.\n“Courageous Leadership’ helps readers unpack the tools, tasks and challenges of their calling. Chapter 9, which focuses on self-leadership, reminds readers that leading well means leading well in all directions. The compass provides a powerful image of the magnetic need for the 360- degree leader to develop effective relationships with their supervisors (north), with the people they supervise (south) and with their peer groups (those on the east and west). In addition to learning how to lead up, lead across and lead down, this chapter guides readers in the rigorous work of self-reflection and inner growth. Issues such as clear vision, passion, the development of gifts, character, pride, fear and the interior issues that undermine leadership, are explored insightfully by the author as he shares some of the victories and setbacks he has experienced in his own courageous leadership journey.\nReviewed by Pamela Bosworth", "label": "No"}
{"text": "What is EdTech?\nEdTech or Education Tech is the concept of fusing educational principles with technology to enhance both learning and teaching, deepen engagement, and offer an interactive educational experience beyond classroom-based learning. Education Tech extends its popularity and reach by providing adaptable, affordable educational solutions that cross global divides.\nThe practice of inclusive learning is quickly gaining popularity and is being implemented by many institutions of higher learning. Technology bridges the communication gap between teachers and students, enabling inclusive learning. EdTech makes routine tasks entertaining and simplifies challenging schoolwork. Teachers no longer need to hand mark dozens of worksheets and exam papers, register students in schools, or tediously arrange assignments using various systems.\nVirtual learning has become much easier because of mobile devices, computers, and tablets. The use of educational technology can improve the learning environment in addition to the learning process itself. EdTech is transforming classroom-based learning by integrating technology into routine educational tasks. It aids in redesigning the classroom and improving the educational process for educators, students, and administration.\nHow is EdTech Transforming Teaching Methods?\nEdTech has evolved and dominated the educational environment. It establishes inclusive learning between teachers and students.\n- Digital Resources: Textbooks are converted to digital files and shared online so students can easily read them on their smart devices. It gives students more time and flexibility to study whenever they want. No papers are used in the process, which helps protect the environment.\n- Smart Classrooms: The infrastructure of the smart classroom makes it simple for teachers to switch the classroom from traditional to digital with only minor alterations. It allows teachers the freedom to select and combine several teaching philosophies according to the subject, topic, and students’ learning capacities.\n- Webinars and Online Sessions: Students have the opportunity to ask questions, express their ideas, and complete assessments, allowing for a two-way conversation.\n- Online Assessments: It gives flexibility to teachers for grading exam papers.\nBenefits of EdTech\n- Instant Results\n- Remote and virtual learning\n- Easy access to digital resources\n- Simple procedures for institutions and learners\n- Personalized and adaptable learning\n- Reduced Infrastructure costs\nDisadvantages of EdTech\n- Limits real-life social interactions\n- Affects students handwriting\n- Excess screen time\n- Unawareness of teachers with new technologies\nТhе Glоbаl EdTech Mаrkеt is estimated to be UЅD 126.0 Bn іn 2022 and is projected tо rеасh UЅD 280.4 Bn bу 2032 аt а САGR оf 15.12%.\nKey Market Insights of EdTech:\n- Based on Type: The market is segmented into Hardware, Software, and Content, based on type.

Branches or roots that ‘trespass’ across legal boundaries can be lawfully removed back to the boundary only (not beyond the boundary).\nProperty owners or occupiers are not permitted to cross over the boundary to remove branches or access/climb into the tree without the tree owner’s permission. Crossing over the boundary to remove branches or gain access to a tree without the owner’s permission, could be interpreted as trespass. We always recommend that where possible the two parties involved communicate with each other to prevent unnecessary confrontation or misunderstandings before any pruning works.\nAll branches and arisings (cut wood) that cross over a boundary line are still the property of the tree owner and must be offered back to them. The tree owner is not obliged to accept the branches or arisings from the person who has removed them. If the tree owner does not accept them then they must be disposed of in a responsible way (not throwing them back over the fence).\nTree roots from neighbouring property or land\nRoots are also covered under Common Law rights and can be legally removed back to the boundary. However, you should consider this carefully because excessive pruning of branches or roots could lead to the decline, death or destabilisation of a tree. If a neighbour causes a tree to fail through excessive pruning of roots or branches, they may be liable for damages and costs.\nCommunicating with neighbours\nTree owners should be given the opportunity to prevent or abate (reduce or remove) a nuisance, eg branches touching a roof or damaging a neighbour’s building. This could be done by informing the tree owner of the issue, verbally or in writing.\nWe recommend that any claims regarding subsidence damage or damage to drainage should be dealt with through the owner’s or occupier’s insurance provider. This helps to produce a clear record of events, and usually involves specialists who carry out thorough investigations before deciding what action to take.\nIf you are concerned about the safety of a neighbour’s tree, you need to inform the owner of your concerns in writing.\nA tree owner has a duty of care under the Owners and Occupiers Act to prevent harm coming to property or people from trees in their ownership and/or management. Tree owners are responsible for having their trees inspected and maintained to an acceptable level of risk to prevent foreseeable harm or damage occurring.\nArboricultural consultants are qualified professionals who can undertake detailed tree safety inspections.\nDamage caused by neighbouring trees\nAlthough trees provide many benefits, they can sometimes cause damage to property either directly through the roots and branches, or indirectly through altering soil moisture.\nWe always encourage reporting the damage to the tree owner first to provide them with the chance to resolve the issue and informing your insurers who will often pursue it on your behalf.\nIf a tree that is suspected of causing damage is on the roadside, roadside verge, social housing land or a public site, please report as follows:", "label": "No"}

{"text": "If a person asks disturbing questions about an individual's private life including marital status, sexual turn-ons and orientation, probity or physical appearance (https://www.paperdue.com/topic/physical-appearance-essays), it is also a major feature of the sexual harassment behavior. Moreover, if sexually open or nasty material is exhibited in a public place or placed in the work area of an individual, it crystal-clearly portrays the sexually annoying behavior.\nThe research here would try to recognize any fine lines between bigotry and sexism and highlights the consequences that follows a practicing sexist bigot. Through analyzing various crimes and deviances, we will try to figure the connection between prejudice and discrimination. What is Bigotry and Sexism? Bigotry is intolerance towards those who hold different opinions from oneself. (Google, 2016).It is also stated that the word \"bigot\" refers to a prejudiced, closed-minded person who is intolerant or hateful toward people of a different group, especially racial or religious.\nMost victims find the experience embarrassing. These sentiments were echoed in J Mampru V PUTCO where it held that: “Sexual harassment may take many forms, it may be trivial, it may be verbal but gross, or it may be physical, again varying from trivial or gross. It may be a single act or the act may be repeated. The actions as such disclose a total disregard for the feelings and the integrity of the recipient” ii) Do you want a lover tonight?” Do these words constitute sexual harassment? And if it does, is it\nDiscrimination is defined as a behavioral manifestation of negative attitude, judgment or unfair treatment towards members of one group ( Williams, Spencer, Jackson, 1999). Discrimination can also be defined as any behavior, judgment or action that creates and encourages relations of oppression or conditions that marginalize or exclude the lives of those who are discriminated (\nThe American Heritage College Dictionary defined Racism as the belief that race determines the human character and the human ability. To me, racism is done or committed when one believes that one race is superior to other races. It brings division to races because of the issues and conflicts on who is to be the one who is superior and who is the one to be inferior. Racism in the form of discrimination is still grows and prevails in the society today. According to Avila (2014), the separation of people through a social division into some aspects for the purpose of discrimination but are not necessarily related to races is considered as Racial Discrimination.\nBesides sexual harassments have extremely antagonistic effects on individual, social and mental existence of the victims. Because of sexual harassment, victim's social life gets to be exasperates. Sexual harassment likewise impactsly affects working capacities of the victims. All in all sexual harassment influences an individual's employment, meddles and aggravates the performance. Thus, hostile and unfriendly environment become an integral factor.\nRacism, the act of “…prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism directed against someone of a different race…”, is a major problem today. It gives people fear, doubt, shame, and sometimes guilt. In addition, racism gives people an awful perspective of life and sometimes, if one is looking up to a racist, the racist’s point of view begins to alter the person’s judgement. Racism could also lead to great conflict arising from those who heavily despise that race and maybe even mass killings, which foreshows that racism needs to be stopped and ended completely. The first step we should take towards demolishing racism is to allow children, starting at the age of 7, to learn more about the impact of racism, specifically by having to watch a program that he/she will watch 24/7 all about anti-racism.\nBullying is a problem in our society because of the negative affects it has on others. There are many divergent types of bullying. For example, there is physical bullying, cyber bullying, and verbal bullying. Physical bullying is any bullying that injures or detriment 's possessions. Some examples of physical bullying is stealing, shoving, hitting, fighting, and destroying property.\nGender discrimination happens every time sexes are handled unequally. Discrimination is not only based on gender differences but on how people negotiated differently because of their sex. An online source entitled \"The Causes, Effects & Remedies for Gender Discrimination (2018)\" tells us that gender discrimination is an illegal act and different laws are provided to lessen discriminatory practices. To continue, gender discrimination is the unequal treatment of an individual because of gender. Gender discrimination strikes men and women.\nAccording to Stone (2013), discrimination is when another person is differentiate from another groups based on their sex, race, disability, marital and parental status. In the anti-discrimination legislation, it is known as making a group in advantaged and the other are in disadvantaged. Employment discrimination happens when employees and job applicants were discriminated because of their weaknesses, their family medical history, women that are pregnant, or the connection with a certain individual. (Doyle 2017). Discrimination has a lot of type such as discrimination by the society, discrimination that are indirect, harassment, and victimisation.", "label": "No"}
{"text": "A short look back at a travelogue from the year 1907 by Wilhelm Rickmer-Rickmers\nWhen Ella Maillart visited Central Asia, all activities in the Central Asian Soviet Republics were dominated by the fulfilment of the first five-year plan. During this time, Maillart still writes of the region as Turkestan, which had been called Russian Turkestan before the Bolsheviks‘ conquest. The German explorer Rickmer-Rickmers had described the region as Duab with colonial gestures in 1907 during his lecture to the Royal Asian Society.\nThe word means ‚two rivers’, and was chosen by me on the analogy of Punjab, or ‘five streams’. Its outline is easily remembered, for the two mighty rivers, the Oxus, or Amu, and the Yaxartes, or Syr, form the greater part. To complete this boundary, we have only to draw a straight line connecting the estuaries in the sea of Aral, and another, along the watershed from the sources of the Oxus to where the Naryn, or Upper Syr Darya, comes out of the Ferghana Mountains.Rickmer-Rickers, Impressions of the Duab (1907)\nRickmer-Rickmers called the region the ‚California of Russia‘ in 1907 because of the enormous agricultural potential of irrigated farming. He found it positive that the land was completely controlled by the strict Russian rule and was increasingly developed by railways, roads and canals. Industrialisation and modern urban development were, in Rickmer-Rickmer’s view, only a matter of time. He was accompanied by his wife, the Austrian mountain climber and photographer Cenzi von Ficker and his translator Makandarov. However, he also foresaw a future in which the rivers Amu Darya and Syr Darya would no longer reach the Aral Sea.\nAfter the commercial boom will come industry and mining. But, above all this, there looms large the work of the country – the result of a century – irrigation. The waters of the Oxus and Yaxartes still flow into Lake Aral. The great task of the future will provide work until the last drops of these rivers have been diverted to agriculture. Realize this: not until Lake Aral is dry, we need to expect an end to the development of the country between the rivers; until then we can expect a steady increase of produce and population. Realize this, and you then know what it means to speak of the future of the ‘Duab’.Rickmer-Rickers, Impressions of the Duab (1907)\nThe short passages in which Rickmer-Rickmers refers to cotton growing in Russian Turkestan show how closely speaking about space is linked to the practices carried out in it. Rickmer-Rickmers already speaks of an almost hysterical attitude of the English press, business and military towards the economic and military measures of tsarist Russia in Central Asia.\nBoth Rickmer-Rickmer’s 1907 lecture text and Ella Maillart’s much more detailed reportages, which are far less determined by a colonial view of Central Asia, are particularly interesting if one wants to analyse space as a product of social-communicative actions.\nElla Maillart’s visits to the cotton plantations and cotton villages of the Uzbek Soviet Republic in 1931\nThe unique approach of the Swiss traveller Ella Maillart is that she takes an almost ethnographic approach. And she has access to women. This means that many of her observations are often in contrast to everything that men from Europe have written about the social worlds of Central Asian cultures. The German reporter Egon Erwin Kisch had already interviewed women in 1929, but mainly female officials. Maillart, on the other hand, also talks to many women from the regular working-class and writes about them in her book.\nArtificial staging of cotton in propagandistic anniversary publications of the Soviet era.\nShe visits the Durmen-Baumann-Kolchose, a cotton village about 15 kilometres from Tashkent. In 1930, this kolkhoz, covering an area of almost 200 hectares, had delivered 219 tonnes of cotton, which meant an allocation of twenty-five tonnes of bread.\nSome of the irrigation canals she sees there are said to date back to pre-Christian times – Ella Maillart emphasises that only with the introduction of the Soviet system has there been greater justice, with the same working hours for everyone and equal pay. After all, tsarist Russia had also allowed local feudal lords who subordinated themselves to the Russian system to continue to exploit the inhabitants of the villages arbitrarily. However, Ella Maillart also gives negative opinions about the intensified transformation of the agricultural area under the Soviet system:\nDo you know what they were doing here? They have given orders to plant cotton everywhere. Then the plough went over the rice fields. It destroyed all our little irrigation canals that had been built and maintained with so much effort for so long. Then, when it turned out that the grain from Siberia was not so easy to get, they said, ‚Grow a third of rice again. But that is no longer possible; all the old water channels are dead.Ella Maillart, Turkestan Solo (1934)\nMaillart reports that in 1913 the Ministry of Agriculture of Tsarist Russia had already estimated the length of the canals at over 40,000 km. In a report, the responsible official had expressed admiration for this enormous cultural achievement of the people of the region. During the period of the first five-year plan, the canals were extended many times over. The sowing of cotton began in mid-April, the harvest in July, and lasted until November when frost forced the last capsules to open.\nThe transformation of the diverse socio-economic cultural space of Central Asia into an area of cotton monoculture required massive human labour and led to a fundamental transformation of established traditional cultural practices.\nThe women Ella Maillart talks to work on a piecework basis and pick an average of 24 kg a day. They contribute the largest part of the family income. In the beginning, her husbands had opposed the woman taking off her veil and working for the collective farm in the fields. After all, the money the women earned had probably changed almost everyone’s mind. The state takes care of the children while the women work.\nThere are the pickers; all of them, young and old, look over to me laughing as they see me photographing them. Their faded skirts are turned up and bursting with the snow-white cotton […]. They pick while walking with short, secure handles. […] At one corner of the field, each has her sack, which she fills little by little. I walk through a row of undeveloped parcels to the place where the babies, […] are looked after during working hours.Ella Maillart, Turkestan Solo (1934)\nPropagandistic presentation of child care in the Soviet Uzbekistan of the 1930s\nThe living conditions in the villages described by Ella Maillart are more than poor during this time. Nevertheless, she likes the small houses. In winter, the rooms, which are built entirely of clay, are kept warm by pouring glowing coal into a rectangle embedded in the ground. Then a table is placed over it and covered with a blanket. In this way, the warmth is maintained while the family sits around the table.\nSouth of the Aral Sea, in Khwarazm, cotton cultivation is also increasing steadily, although the area does not seem to have been safely under Soviet rule at the time that Ella Maillart visits it. Again and again, she reports of attacks by the so-called Basmatchi. This ambiguous description of the group goes back to the Basmatchi, who had initially fought as allies of the Bolsheviks for their cultural self-determination and national independence during the October Revolution of 1917. However, due to the incompatible political goals, an irreconcilable enmity quickly developed between the social-revolutionary Bolsheviks and the Basmatchi. During the civil war from 1919 to 1924, those loyal to the Bolsheviks then called their opponents Basmatchi. In their ranks fought rebels from all kinds of social contexts. They were farmers, descendants of members of the pre-colonial state apparatus or nomads. Until 1920, large parts of Central Asia escaped Soviet rule, although strong Red Army units were operating there. The centres of resistance were the areas around Ferghana, Khiva and Bukhara. Due to the massive Red Army deployment, the Basmatchi armed uprising turned into a gang war by the mid-1920s. The mobile, mostly mounted Basmatchi units were difficult to capture in the steppe and mountains with military and police operations.\nMilitary and economic violence was also used to enforce the cotton economy by linking the right to buy everyday goods and food in the collective shops to participation in the cotton collectives. Ella Maillart’s interlocutor reports:\nThey have been promised all kinds of benefits. But in practice, they were forced to do so if they wanted to buy anything at all in the cooperatives. These cooperatives have the power of disposal over grain and all other products. The farmers are often told which parts of the land they can plant with barley, maize, rice or fruit trees.Ella Maillart, Turkestan Solo (1934)\nTo make socialism attractive, the shops of the cooperatives, for example in Turtkul, the then capital of Karakalpakstan, are better equipped with goods than the centres. What is mainly lacking, however, is grain – this is the negative consequence of the massive introduction of cotton growing, as Ella Maillart describes in many passages of her travel report.\nThe Aral Sea region in the 1930s\nAt the beginning of her trip through today’s Uzbekistan, the Swiss traveller visited the editorial office of the newspaper ‚Pravda Vostoka‘ in Tashkent, which was also the headquarters of the propagandistic support of the Soviet cotton offensive. Here, on the one hand, she realised how much the fate of all of Turkestan depends on the fulfilment of the five-year plan: Because the supply of grain and thus the supply of bread is tied to the fulfilment of the plan – a threat from Moscow that nobody in the country doubts will be fulfilled. On the other hand, by fulfilling the plan, Moscow is also addressing the entire Western world and its economic system:\nI have today‘, said the editor-in-chief, ‚published the translation of an article in the ‚Frankfurter Zeitung‘ which says that the eyes of the whole world are turned to our Central Asia. We are ruining American and Egyptian trade by producing our own cotton. The example of our republics, freed from the imperialist yoke, will incite the Asian colonies now dominated by France and England to revolt…‘Ella Maillart, Turkestan Solo (1934)\nTo be continued…\nText: Stefan Applis (2020)\nPhotos: Taken from the propagandistic anniversary volumes on the development of the Central Asian Soviet Republics\nElla Maillart (1934).

This mysterious illness can affect dog of any age, size, or breed. The most common signs of SCI are lethargy, vomiting, and diarrhea all within 72 hours of walking in woodland. This can be a fatal illness, so be alert and aware of your dog's symptoms, and consult your veterinarian if conditions worsen.\n-Layering Up for the Colder Weather: A natural response for dogs in colder seasons is to grow thicker hair to keep themselves warm. But in the fall, their bodies may not respond so quickly to the changing air temperatures. Consider investing in rain-proof coats for evening walks in the rain and wind. Also, look for ways to keep your dog active inside the house.

{"text": "De politieke kracht van het darwinisme\n(chapter in Irena Tallon, Michael Briga e.a., Evolutie vandaag, VUB Press, Brussels, 2005)\nThe chapter I contributed to this book from the University of Brussels is on the political power of Darwinism. The point made is not that Darwin, in working out his theory of evolution, was himself politically inspired or motivated. There is little or no convincing proof that he was. Still, Darwin indeed underwent the influence of the political economy of his day as represented by Smith, Malthus and Ricardo. That influence, however, is a matter of heuristics.\nWhat Darwin did, though, is to apply his biological theory in the social and political domain, in a similar way, more or less, as several of his followers did. Notably in his The Descent of Man (1871) Darwin transposed his theory of evolution to humanity’s recent cultural development. On the one hand he argued that ruling out or softening the effects of natural selection in modern society would result in modern man’s degeneration. On the other hand he made it clear that social and political ties and communities were the result of evolution by natural selection.\nIt is remarkable that Darwinism was used as a new political argument, or a new strategy to prove political legitimacy, by almost every political movement; the more or less fundamentalist Christian politicians were the only notable exception. It obviously was attractive for politicians and political thinkers to appropriate the scientific authority of Darwinism. The political application of Darwinism is not limited to liberalism. It can even be found in anarchism or conservative nationalism. Such application, then, was a rather eclectic affair: everyone picked out the elements that would suit them best. Besides, Darwinism’s political influence was indirect; as far as I know there were no political parties or governments who deliberately called themselves Darwinist. In this sense Darwinism never was an overt political ideology.\nNevertheless, the list of politicians and political thinkers who claimed political inspiration by Darwinism is a long one. The list contains prominent names like Walter Bagehot, Arthur Balfour, August Bebel, Eduard Bernstein, Joseph Chamberlain, Keir Hardie, Karl Kautsky, Peter Kropotkin, James Ramsay MacDonald, David Ritchie, Theodore Roosevelt, Herbert Spencer, Albert Schäffle, Wim Treub, Emile Vandervelde, Graham Wallas and Sidney Webb. In addition there are three influential thinkers, while partly building their arguments on Darwinism, were a strong influence in politics: the Wagnerian Houston Stewart Chamberlain, the sociologist of conflict Ludwig Gumplowicz, and the theorist of Lebensraum Friedrich Ratzel.\nDarwin’s Origin of Species (1859) was published at a moment in history when the main political ideologies experienced considerable turmoil. Socialism was strongly rising, while it still had not completed its theoretical foundations. The theories of Marx and Engels were gaining influence. ‘New Liberalism’ was beginning to develop, while traditional liberalism was redefining its view on the role of the state, revising the former strictness of laissez faire. Political anarchism was being defined. The simple but fundamental question ‘revolution or evolution’ was, at the time, highly relevant. In this general atmosphere of ideological turmoil it became popular to claim for the scientific soundness of political ideas by referring to Darwin and Darwinism, or to sociological theories emulating Darwinism. The positivism of Comte and Spencer made it seem very convincing that social science was, and had to be, defined as social physiology, solidly based on biology.", "label": "No"}

{"text": "Q & A: Minds of Their Own\nExploring the emotional and moral lives of animals\nHumans have long tried to imagine what other species think and how they may feel, projecting our own perspectives and emotions onto the animal experience. The sight of a hawk spiraling effortlessly on an updraft or horses cantering side by side in a field is enough to inspire wonder about the inner lives of other creatures. And to people who observe their pets’ activities and moods, the existence of cat and dog emotions—in the form of joy, grief, even jealousy—seems beyond question.\nWhat seems blatantly apparent to many animal lovers, however, is challenged by some scientists as nothing more than sentimental anthropomorphism. Portrayal of animals as lesser beings without thought or emotion dates at least as far back as the days of Aristotle, who believed that animals existed solely for the benefit of humans and were incapable of feeling beyond mere sensation and appetite.\nBut ethologists engaged in the study of animal behavior are drawing from a growing body of evidence to build a case to the contrary. On the forefront of the burgeoning field are renowned scientists Jonathan Balcombe and Marc Bekoff. After years of researching the emotions of animals, Bekoff began exploring the concepts of morality and justice in their societies, basing his work on animals’ adherence to their own sets of rules and the application of punishment in their play. Balcombe studies pleasure in animals—a concept rarely considered within the scientific community—and what it means for our treatment of them.", "label": "No"}

{"text": "Saffron Books’ forthcoming Cho Dong-il’s History of Korean Literature is a magisterial work, perhaps the most comprehensive narrative on the subject in any language other than Korean, encompassing milestones, events and personalities in one of the most engrossing bodies of world literature, writes Sajid Rizvi, Publisher and Editor-in-Chief of Saffron Books. This monumental book, published in conjunction with the Academy of Korean Studies, Seoul, is part of Saffron Korea Library Series. Visit SaffronBooks.com.\nThis English translation of the six-volume original serves as a foundation for and stepping stone to further study of Korean literature. In developing this edition, Saffron has introduced numerous features that are not part of the Korean edition, including comprehensive indices. The cover of the book features a painting by the author.\nTranslated by Charles La Shure, Cho Dong-il’s History of Korean literature offers a comprehensive examination of the history of Korean literature, both written and oral, and inquires into its relationship with world literary history. He places Korean literature within its proper cultural, philosophical, and political contexts, tracing the threads that run through it from ancient times to the 20th century.\nCho Dong-il’s History of Korean Literature traces the development of Korean literature from its beginnings in paleolithic times through the ancient and medieval eras, the important transition from medieval to modern Korea, and the Japanese colonial period, which ended in 1945.\nDr Cho, a pre-eminent scholar of Korean literature, demonstrates how inextricably the threads of history, literature, and philosophy are interwoven, providing the necessary background to understand Korean literature as an unbroken tradition of thousands of years. His theories of literary branches and tendencies, as well as his unique understanding of the relationships between historical eras, provide a deeper and more flexible framework for interpreting Korean literature than traditional genre and periodization systems. Lastly, he goes beyond regional boundaries to examine the place Korean literature occupies in world literature.\nThis edited translation serves as an introduction to Korean literature, maintaining the important theoretical framework and underlying theories that make Dr Cho’s work the premiere textbook that it is in Korea, but also focusing on the more significant aspects of Korean literary history so as not to overwhelm the reader.\nAbout the Author\nProfessor Cho Dong-il has been teaching Korean literature for 45 years, primarily in Korea but also in France, Japan and China. He has spoken to academic audiences in sixteen countries around the globe. His contributions to the fields of Korean literature and Korean Studies include over seventy books and over two hundred papers; of his recent books, A Theory of Learning (2012), serves as an approachable introduction to and summary of his vast body of research, while Where Now for Literary History? (2015) offers his thoughts on the future of the discipline. He is currently professor emeritus at Seoul National University and a member of the National Academy of Sciences of the Republic of Korea.\nAbout the Translator\nCharles La Shure holds a doctorate in classical Korean literature with a specialization in oral literature from Seoul National University. In addition to his academic research, he works as a translator of academic and literary texts from Korean into English; recent previous translations include the novel Black Flower, by Kim Young-ha, and the novel Scenes from the Enlightenment, by Kim Namcheon. He is currently a professor in the Department of Korean Language and Literature at Seoul National University.\nPreface by Cho Dong-il\nThis book is an abridged translation of my Hangungmunhaktongsa (A Comprehensive History of Korean Literature). The first edition of that book was published between 1982-1988*, the second edition appeared in 1989, the third edition in 1994, and the fourth edition in 2005. All editions of the book have been published by Jisik Sanup Publications, Seoul. Hangungmunhaktongsa comprises six volumes, including an extensive and separate appendix. It deals comprehensively with all aspects of Korean literature and delves deep into the specifics of research in the field, and thus is not suited for the wider foreign audience. For some time I had felt there was need for a single-volume version of this substantial body of research and had begun work towards that objective early on. My long collaboration with Dr Daniel Bouchez resulted in the 2002 publication of Histoire de la littérature coréenne des origines à 1919 (History of Korean literature from its beginnings to 1919) through the French publishing company Fayard. We were co-authors and co-translators of this book.\nI began a similar collaboration with Dr Marshal Pihl in the United States, but the project sadly was abandoned after Dr Pihl’s passing. I resumed my search for a collaborator to continue the project. My efforts, fruitless at first, were finally rewarded and my hopes fulfilled when I met my collaborator for this volume, Charles La Shure, an American academic colleague.\nAfter coming to Korea, Charles La Shure entered the graduate school at Seoul National University and received master’s and doctoral degrees. He is familiar with both the Korean language and Korean literature, and during the long time he spent studying with me, he gained a detailed understanding of my academic theories. He has taken my lectures and also helped in my research. He majored in creative writing as an undergraduate in the United States, and his English writing skills are excellent. He also has experience translating Korean literary works into English, and has achieved outstanding results through these efforts. He is the most qualified individual for the task of creating an English edition of Hangungmunhaktongsa. The Academy of Korean Studies did not hesitate to support us with a grant, allowing us to begin the project.\nThe French edition and this English edition differ in a number of ways. The French edition is based on the third edition of the original, while the English version is based on the fourth edition. Up until the third edition, I dealt only with Korean literary history, but in the fourth edition I dealt more with the relationship between Korean literature and world literature, so the contents of the translations differ in that regard. In creating the French edition, the original edition was condensed and rewritten, but in creating the English edition, we selected the most important content and translated this more or less in full. The French edition deals only with literature up to 1919, while the English edition extends through the Japanese colonial period, but places more emphasis on later literature than earlier literature. The two editions are complementary to each other, and reading both will provide a more complete picture.\nIn creating the English edition, we divided up the work load. I handled the general selection of material to be translated, while Dr La Shure took care of the smaller details. After Dr La Shure translated sections of the book, I read and examined these translations, and we worked together to address and correct any problems or issues. Of course, Dr La Shure invested the greater effort in this process.\nThe primary aim in selecting content was to make the finished translation easily understandable for English-speaking readers. We decided not to include content that was too complex or intricate, making it difficult to translate or requiring too many unfamiliar terms and proper nouns. We dealt in brief with early literature and in more detail with later literature. Both the main text and passages quoted from literary works were translated with readability in mind. The bibliographies included at the end of each section in the original work have been omitted. For these reasons, the English edition has not a few inadequacies. It is our hope that this book will serve rather as a guide to Korean literature for English-speaking readers, and that readers wishing to explore Korean literature further will make an effort to study the Korean language and read the original Korean edition, Hangungmunhaktongsa.\n[Thanks to Drs Cho and La Shure for providing this translation]\n이 책은 Cho Dong-il이 한국어로 쓴 한국문학통사 (A Comprehensive History of Korea Literature) 의 축약 번역본이다. 한국문학통사는 1982-1988년에 제1판이, 1989년에 제2판이, 1994에 제3판이 나왔다. 전면 수정한 제4판이 2005년에 나왔다. 출판사는 계속 서울의 지식산업사이다.\n한국문학통사는 별책 부록을 포함해 모두 6권의 분량이다. 한국문학의 전 영역의 수많은 사항을 거의 빠짐없이 다루고, 연구 상황을 자세하게 소개해 외국인이 이용하기는 어렵다. 한 권으로 축약해 외국어로 소개하는 작업이 필요하다고 여겨 일찍 착수했다. 오랜 노력 끝에 Cho Dong-il과 Daniel Bouchez의 Histoire de la littérature coréenne 가 프랑스 파리 Fayard 출판사에서 2002년에 나왔다. 우리 두 사람이 그 책의 공저자이고 공역자이다. 같은 방식으로 영어판을 만드는 일을 미국인 학자 Marshal Pihl 교수와 함께 하다가 애석하게도 세상을 떠나서 중단하지 않을 수 없게 되었다. Marshal Pihl 의 뒤를 이을 분을 찾다가 뜻을 이루지 못했다.\n그러다가 Cho Dong-il 은 다행히 미국인 동학 (academic colleague) Charles La Shure 를 만나 소원을 성취하게 되었다. 이 사람은 한국으로 유학 와서 서울대학교 국어국문과 대학원에 입학해 한국고전문학 전공으로 석사학위를 받고 박사학위 과정에서 공부를 계속하고 있었다. 한국어와 한국문학을 잘 알고, 오랜 기간 동안 함께 공부해 내 학설을 소상하게 이해한다. 강의를 수강하면서 내 연구에 동참하기도 했다. 미국대학에서 문예창작을 전공해 영어 문장력이 뛰어나다. 한국문학 작품을 영어로 번역한 경험이 많고 그 성과가 뛰어나다. 한국문학통사 영어판을 만들 수 있는 가장 적임자이다. 한국학중앙연구원에서 번역비를 지원해주어 주저하지 않고 착수할 수 있었다.\n불문판과 영문판은 몇 가지 점이 서로 다르다. 불문판은 제3판을, 영문판은 제4판을 대본으로 했다. 제3판까지에서는 한국문학사를 그 자체로 다루다가 제4판에서는 한국문학과 세계문학의 관계를 더 많이 취급했으므로 옮겨놓은 내용도 달라졌다. 불문판을 만들 때에는 원문을 축약해 재집필했으나, 영문판은 대부분의 중요한 내용을 가려내서 번역했다. 불문판은 1919년까지의 문학만 취급하고, 영문판에서는 그 뒤의 문학을 더욱 중요시해 큰 비중을 두었다. 두 책을 함께 읽으면서 특성을 서로 보완하게 하면 도움이 될 것이다.\n우리 두 사람이 영역본을 함께 만들면서 일을 약간 분담했다. 번역할 내용을 가려내는 일은 Cho Dong-il 이 주로 하고 Charles La Shure가 세부적인 사항을 맡았다. Charles La Shure가 일단 번역한 원고를 Cho Dong-il 이 읽어 검토하고 문제점이 발견되면 함께 수정해 완성했다. 그 과정에서 Charles La Shure 가 더 많은 수고를 했음은 물론이다.\n영어권 독자들이 이 책을 쉽게 이해할 수 있도록 하자는 것이 축약의 기본방침이다. 내용이 너무 복잡하고 까다로워 영어로 옮기기 어렵거나 고유명사가 너무 많이 들어간 대목은 넣지 않기로 했다. 이른 시기의 문학은 간략하게, 가까운 시기의 문학은 자세하게 다루었다. 인용 작품이든 본문이든 적절하게 의역해 읽기 쉽게 하려고 했다. 세부항목마다 갖추어져 있는 참고논저는 생략했다. 그렇기 때문에 미흡한 점이 적지 않다. 이 책을 안내서로 삼아 한국문학을 공부한 독자가 장차 한국어를 본격적으로 공부해 한국문학통사 원문을 읽기를 간절하게 바란다.", "label": "No"}
{"text": "Storytelling in Presentations\nSurrounded by tablets, smartphones and AI, it’s hard to imagine we have anything in common with our ancestors from the Stone Age. But surprisingly, it’s only a small evolutionary step from the mammoth hunt to management level. Storytelling is as important today as it was thousands of years ago.\nStorytelling in presentations:\nWhy you should send your audience on a mammoth hunt\nRegardless of whether, when, where and why sales have risen or fallen – we are still hunters and gatherers in our DNA. We’re fascinated by stories of an exciting hunt or close escape.\nHow do we know this? Through stories we hear around the campfire.\nStorytelling gives us life lessons. Even though most of us never find ourselves sitting around a campfire or confronted with predators, storytelling is still an important part of our culture. And a good storyteller can put that skill to good use no matter the situation.\nHow? By bringing the campfire to your next presentation and becoming a storyteller.\nWithout emotions, facts fall by the wayside:\nMovies vs. PowerPoint presentations\nWe live in a world where communicating and sharing information is more important than ever – and presentations are a popular tool for this. In most presentations though, a lot is said and truly little is remembered. But why?\nThink of the last movie that really grabbed you. You were immersed in the action. Your pulse raced when the killer chased the victim or when the hero saved the world. You were invested in the journey! Who cares that it was all pure fiction and had nothing to do with the reality of your life.\nAnd now think of the last presentation you attended. The situation was probably a little different. Though what was told was important and pertained to reality, it was no doubt hard to stay focused.\nWhy does this happen? Even with the best content, there’s a good chance an audience will tune out. This information often doesn’t even get past the brain’s “bouncer”. The bouncer in this case is the amygdala – the part of our brain essential to our ability to feel certain emotions.\nThe amygdala wants a good story. Only then can our brains stay focused. So, when you want to effectively communicate facts, you need to link them to emotions. And if you want to present successfully, you need to be a storyteller.\nExperiments at Stanford University have shown that stories are remembered up to 22 times more than facts alone.\nIn short, stories sell.\nStorytelling for the primitive brain:\nWhen the rival company becomes a saber-toothed tiger.\nTurning the current sales figures into an exciting story is not as difficult as it sounds.\nMost stories follow a certain pattern.\nThis is when the scene is set and we’re introduced to the protagonists – their wishes, their goals, their personalities.\nThe plot develops. There is a crisis, a problem, a mission, and perhaps one or two nemeses. There is a struggle and sacrifices have to be made.\nIn the end, victory awaits. Or if all fails, disaster.\nThis storytelling model can also be applied to less spectacular scenarios. With a little thought and creativity, you can turn your company’s current situation into Act I. Employees, competitors and customers become heroes, opponents and prey. Act II’s mission is to conquer the market leaders. If you succeed, Act II will end with your company’s success and triumph for all employees. So, let’s go on the adventure!\nThis kind of storytelling structure has a completely different effect than simply presenting the company’s figures with the no-brainer conclusion that things could be better and more effort is needed.\nA story provides explanations\nPeople like stories because they provide explanations and context.\nConspiracy theories are a good example of this. They’re extremely popular during uncertain times because they offer explanations for the inexplicable, simple solutions for complex problems and a clearly defined image of the enemy. As crazy as it sounds, a conspiracy theory is simply a good, clear story.\nConspiracy theories don’t have to be large-scale stories, they can also be gossip told around the water cooler.\nStorytelling in PowerPoint Presentations:\nThe presenter leads the way\nSo how can we apply storytelling to presentations? When only facts are provided, the audience will draw their own conclusions. If the how and why, right and wrong, beginning and end are not given by the presenter, the audience will create them.\nAs a result, the unavoidable restructuring of a department may be interpreted as just ruthless cost cutting. The new sales strategy may be seen as a direct criticism of the current strategy. So instead of motivating, engaging and empowering your audience, the exact opposite might happen. By leaving too much room for interpretation, you lose control of the narrative. But by creating a story, you set the course and take your audience along for the ride.\nA story is only as good as its narrator\nAnyone who uses storytelling presentations needs to think about his or her own role in the process. One’s own experience and motivation are what drive the story. It’s what makes the presentation credible and trustworthy. So, don’t just tell a story, tell YOUR story.\n- What are you hunting?\n- How do you face adversaries?\n- Why are you doing this?\n- Or in other words: Why should people buy into your story?\nCredibility always requires a certain passion. If content is reduced to just a shopping list of content, the effect fizzles out. If you want a story to work for you, you have to commit to storytelling. Not everyone is a born storyteller, but it can be learned.\nLearn from the best\nThere are many exemplary storytellers – Steve Jobs, Barack Obama, Elon Musk – all passionate presenters who use storytelling to inspire their audiences. Even Donald Trump, whose statements are not exactly considered intellectual, successfully sold his followers the story of the wall as a solution to all of America’s problems.\nStorytelling with PowerPoint can work in almost any setting, and when skillfully applied, it can inspire and captivate an audience. As the Argentinian author Jorge Bucay so aptly puts it:\nWe tell stories to children so that they fall asleep – and to adults so they wake up.”", "label": "No"}

Games are not all for the kids anymore either, with many titles carrying adult content warnings, and following storylines that appeal to the adult gamer, it came of little surprise to us to discover that 37% of Canadian gamers are 55+ years of age. Canada has now, solidified its place as a “gaming” country, as 58% of Canadians proudly call themselves gamers.\nCentre for Arts and Technology offers two animation programs; 2D Animation & Digital Art and Animation for Game, Film & Visual Effects, and graduates from these programs pursue various careers in the animation and video game industries. This infographic confirms that there will continue to be growth in both of these sectors, great news for our animation grads and alumni.\nThese stats may be simply interesting to you, but they mean a great deal more to our staff at Centre for Arts and Technology, particularly the animation department.

{"text": "Finland Population 2015\nFinland is one of five Nordic countries located in Northern Europe, where it's bordered by Norway, Sweden, Russia, Estonia and the Gulf of Finland. Finland has an estimated population of 5.46 million in 2015, which ranks 115th in the world.\nThe most recent confirmed population figures date to the 2010 census, which found an official population of 5.36 million. The population of Finland has since grown to an estimated 5.46 million in 2015. The country has a very low population density of 18 people per square kilometer (46/square mile), which ranks 201st in the world and makes Finland one of the most sparsely populated country of the European Union.\nThe largest city and capital is Helsinki on the shore of the Gulf of Finland. Helsinki has a population of 625,000 and a metropolitan population of 1.4 million. The Helsinki metro area is the 4th largest Nordic metropolitan area after Copenhagen, Stockholm, and Oslo.\nFinland Population History\nRecorded Finland population figures date back to 1750 and have been faithfully updated ever since. They would clearly appear to have been rounded either up or down too and in 1750, it is shown that there were 421,000 people living here.\nTen years later, those numbers had climbed to 490,000 – a rise of just over sixteen per cent and similar increases through the rest of the 1700’s took the population of Finland to 837,000 at the start of the 19th century.\nThe population of Finland climbed above one million for the first time by 1820 and as the 20th century began, figures within the country had increased to 2,655,900. This pattern of steady increases has continued ever since to the point where the Finland population in 2012 is rapidly approaching 5.5 million.\nIt is reported that population growth slowed in Finland after World War Two with average family sizes falling from 3.6 in 1950 to 2.7 by 1975. Therefore, while there is still growth here, it is considerably slower than it has been in the past.\nFinland is very ethnically homogeneous. Most of the population is ethnic Finnish. The earliest inhabitants of the area were hunter-gatherers, most closely related to the modern-day Sami people of Finland. There are about 4,500 Sami left in Finland who are officially recognized as a minority. The Sami people have been living north of the Arctic Circle for over 7,000 years and account for a 5% minority in the Lapland Province. Finland does not keep official statistics on ethnicity.\nJust 3.5% of the population is made up of foreign citizens, which is one of the lowest rates in the European Union. Most foreign citizens are from Estonia, Russia, and Sweden. Children of foreigners born in Finland do not automatically receive Finnish citizenship unless they cannot get citizenship in another nation.\nBased on population figures in 2009 of 5,351,427, the CIA World Factbook suggests that 16.6% of the Finland population were aged between 0 and 14 years. In addition, 66.4% were aged between 15 and 64.\nAs evidence of the slowing down of population growth, Finland also has a high percentage of people aged over 65 – 17% in 2009 and that is considerably higher than the world’s average.\nFinland Population Growth\nOverall, however, the picture is still one of growth in terms of a decade by decade situation. Therefore, it could be that the population of Finland may come very close to the six million figure by 2020.", "label": "No"}

Mindfulness simply involves deliberately paying attention, and being fully aware of what is happening both internally (mind, body and heart) and outside yourself (your environment). It is awareness without criticism or judgement.\nMindful eating simply involves paying full attention to the experience of eating, by connecting more deeply with, and enjoying your food, before, during and after your meal.\nMindful eating is a life skill we can all learn, which leads to a more satisfying, healthy and enjoyable relationship with food. Unlike food rules or diets, with mindful eating there is no right or wrong ways to eat, but instead varying degrees of consciousness about what we are eating and why. The goal of mindful eating then, is to base our meals on physical cues, such as our bodies’ hunger signals, instead of emotional ones (comfort eating).\nWhy is it so important to eat mindfully?\nMindful eating enables us to hear what our body is telling us about hunger and satisfaction. It helps us become aware of ‘who’ out of the mind, body and heart is really hungry, and how and what is best to nourish it.\nThis is important because the busyness of life today often keeps us in our head, instead of the present which equates to mindless eating. Mindless eating eventually becomes habitual, and can lead to food addiction which is the most prevalent type of addiction today. Addiction is simply the opposite of awareness.\nIf you want to begin eating more mindfully, then join my 3 keys holistic health and fitness program at www.h360.online", "label": "No"}
{"text": "We can’t emphasize this enough: Whenever your kids are on wheels–skating, scooting, cruising, riding, gliding, unicycling, etc–they must always wear a helmet. Every day, countless kids are saved from serious injuries or worse simply because they put on their helmets properly. So whether they’re riding in the driveway or they’re cruising around the block, make sure their heads are protected. Here’s how.\n- When riding, scooting, or skating, always make sure your children wear a helmet, even if they are the passengers in a trailer bike or bike seat.\n- Make sure your child’s helmet meets the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission’s (CPSC) standards. Look for the CPSC certified label on the box.\n- Let children choose their own helmets. They will be more likely to wear them every time they ride. Encourage them to pick brightly-colored helmets, so that drivers can see them.\n- Is your child wearing the right size helmet? If the helmet rocks forward, backward or side-to-side, it is not the right size.\n- If your child is between 2 sizes, pick the bigger one. Most helmets come with extra pads to help you get a good fit.\n- Replace any helmet that is damaged or has been involved in a crash. Impact crushes some of the foam. Although the damage may not be visible, a helmet that has been involved in a crash is less protective.\n- You can make sure the helmet is on correctly by following these steps:\n- EYES: Have the child look up while wearing the helmet. S/he should be able to see the bottom rim of the helmet. The rim should be one to two finger-widths above the eyebrows.\n- EARS: Make sure the straps of the helmet form the letter \"V\" under your child’s ears when the straps are buckled. The strap should be snug, but comfortable.\n- MOUTH: Have your child open his/her mouth wide. The helmet should hug his/her head. If not, you need to tighten the straps and make sure the buckle is flat against the skin.\n- Since the straps of a helmet can get caught on things, be sure to teach your children to remove their helmets before using playground equipment, to avoid risk of strangulation. For more information on strangulation risks, go here.\nWearing a bicycle helmet can lower the risk of head injuries by up to 88%.\n- Nationwide Children’s Hospital", "label": "No"}

James went on to point out that no person is master of himself without the capacity to control attention and reign in a wandering mind.Since the time of William James, science and research methods have advanced, enabling clinicians to measure with increasing accuracy the neurological and psychological effects of mind-wandering.

Killingsworth has collected thousands of pieces of data to show that a wandering mind is correlated with an unhappy mind.\nIf Killingsworth is correct, the problems of divided attention, mind-wandering, and distracted focus do not simply hinder us from attaining our academic and professional goals; rather, these problems actually hinder us from achieving well-being and happiness.\nFor some practical recommendations on how to reign in a wandering mind, see Rick Hanson's Huffington Post article '”Is Your Mind Wandering?”\nFor an informative and accessible survey of the brain mechanisms behind mind-wandering and divided attention, see Jean-Philippe Lachaux talk at TEDx 'Attention, distraction and the war in our brain.'\nFinding your mind wandering when it comes to setting up your study plan?

{"text": "Native American History of Geneva County, Alabama\nDiscover your family's story.\nEnter a grandparent's name to get started.\nGeneva County is located in southeastern Alabama. When created by the Alabama legislature in 1868, a Walter H. Yonge, a native of Switzerland suggested that it be named after Geneva, Switzerland. Its county seat is also named Geneva. It is bordered on the south by Holmes County, FL and on the southwest by Walton County, FL. To the northeast is Dale County, AL and northwest is Coffee County, AL. Houston County, AL is to the east, while Covington County, AL is to the west.\nThe Choctawhatchee River flows through the center of Geneva County and flows southward into Holmes County, Florida. Much of Geneva County is in its drainage basin. The original Creek name of the Choctawhatchee River was probably, Chakato-hachi (=Chatot River,) but was misinterpreted by English-speaking settlers to be Choctawhatchee. The Choctawhatchee’s main tributaries in Geneva County are Double Bridge Creek, which joins the river just north of the town of Geneva and the Pea River, which joins the river just south of the town of Geneva.\nThe Gulf Coastal Plain stretching from Mobile, AL to Cedar Key, FL was known as Am-Ixchel by Native Americans, when first explored by the Spaniards in the 1500s. The word was written as Amichel in Castilian and means “Place of the Moon Goddess” in Chontal Maya. This evidence along with many surviving Itza and Chontal Maya place names in Georgia and the Southern Highlands, suggests that the sea-going Chontal Maya merchants were familiar with present day northwestern Alabama.\nEvidence of Native American Occupation\nThere is archaeological evidence that present day Geneva County was in the past a major center of advanced Native American occupation. The location of the town of Geneva was the head of navigation for large sea-going trade canoes that traversed the Gulf Coast. A Native American town site is located one mile below Pate’s Landing on the Choctawhatchee River. It contains two mounds that are still around 10 feet high. Around these mounds is extensive evidence of houses and long term occupation. Downstream about two miles is another mound, which is about 16 feet high. It also is surrounded by evidence of houses. Geneva County has received very little attention from professional archaeologists. It may contain many other Native American settlement sites, that are yet to be discovered.\nAlthough most popular literature describes the aboriginal occupants of Geneva as being Muskogee-Creeks, these Native peoples were immigrants, who entered Alabama along with other branches of the Creeks in the 1700s and early 1800s. Because of population and territorial losses among other Creek branches, the Muskogee-Creeks came to dominate a confederacy of Native provinces in the Lower Southeast in the late 1700s. The actual Muskogee-Creeks were indigenous to the Middle Chattahoochee River Basin, but their language was eventually adopted as the diplomatic language for the Creek Confederacy.\nMany ethnic groups probably lived in Alabama’s Gulf Coast Plain from time to time. The primary inhabitants of present day Geneva County, when the Spanish explored the region in the 1600, were the Chatot. The Chatot apparently spoke a dialect of Yama or Mobilian Trade Jargon. The name Choctawhatchee suggests that either Choctaw speaking towns once occupied the county, or else the Chatot were confused by early settlers to be Choctaws.\nGeologists believe that Alabama was once part of Africa. However, the ancient rocks that the Alabama Panhandle shares with the northwest coast of Africa are buried over 10,000 feet beneath the surface. Above them are bands of sedimentary rocks created by the accumulation of sea life, sand and soils washed down from the Southern Highlands. No dinosaur fossils have been found in Alabama because the region was under water until about 45 million years ago.\nDuring the Pleistocene Epoch or Ice Age, the coast of the Florida Panhandle was as much as 100 miles south of its present location. Botanical evidence suggests that the climate was much more isothermal than today (less differences between seasons.)\nThe Holocene Epoch began around 10,000 years ago, as the glaciers in northern North America started to retreat. Around 8,000 years, ago the Gulf of Mexico began rising. By around 1,500 BC the shoreline was only about five feet lower in elevation than today. However, even at a five feet difference, the Florida Panhandle extended about 20 miles farther south than today. By that time, however, most of southeast Alabama’s rivers and springs had formed in similar conditions to today. The shoreline stabilized around 1000 AD, but in recent decades the level of the Gulf of Mexico has begun to rise again.\nNative American Cultural Periods\nArchaeologists believe that humans have lived in Geneva County for at least 13,000 years, perhaps much longer. During the coldest periods of the Ice Age, the Gulf Coast region would have been one of the few areas of North America that could be comfortably inhabited by homo sapiens. Evidence of the earliest humans may be buried of accumulated soils or under the sea bed as much as 100 miles out from today’s shoreline. Nevertheless, the oldest known human remains found in the Southeast (roughly 10,000 years old) were discovered in the sediment under a cenote (sink hole) in Sarasota County, FL. They included a skull still containing brain matter.\nClovis and Folsom points, associated with Late Ice age big game hunters have been found in southeastern Alabama. During the Ice Age, herds of giant mammals roamed the river bottom lands. The mastodons, saber tooth tigers, giant sloths and other massive mammals died out about 8,000 years ago. The ethnic identity of the Clovis Culture hunters is not known. They were long presumed to be American Indians from Siberia, but recent research by anthropologists has revealed many similarities with the big game hunters of Western Europe. An ice cap on the North Atlantic Ocean may have permitted early humans to move back and forth between continents by paddling, while gaining sustenance from hunting sea mammals and fishing. The big game hunters of both continents may have been a hybrid people with mixed Mongoloid-European physiologies.\nArchaic Period (8,000 BC – 1000 BC)\nAfter the climate warmed, animals and plants typical of today soon predominated in this region. Humans adapted to the changes and gradually became more sophisticated. They adopted seasonal migratory patterns that maximized access to food resources. The coastal areas were probably avoided during hurricane season. Archaic hunters probably moved to locations along the Gulf Coast and rivers during the winter, where they could eat fish and shellfish, if game was not plentiful.\nEarly Woodland Period (2000 BC – 500 BC)\nSoutheast Alabama was a location of some of the earliest permanent villages in North America. A sedentary lifestyle was made possible by abundant natural food sources such as large game, fish, freshwater mussels and the cultivation of gardens. Archaeologists have labeled the Early Woodland peoples of southeastern Alabama as the Deptford Culture. The Deptford Culture extended over much of northern Florida, Alabama, Georgia and South Carolina.\nDeptford Culture villages were relatively small and dispersed. Some were permanent bases while others were seasonal hunting, fishing or gathering camps. There was probably much socialization among these villages because of the need to find spouses that were not closely related. Houses were round and built out of saplings, river cane and thatch.\nThe Early Woodland Period peoples of the region built numerous mounds, although few are visible today because the sandy soil of the Gulf Coastal Plain erodes quickly. Apparently, most of these mounds were primarily for burials, but may have also supported simple structures that were used for rituals or meetings. They were constructed accretionally. This means that the mounds grew in size over the generations by piling sand, soil and detritus from the village over recent burials.\nDeptford Culture style pottery and artifacts were made in some parts of the Lower Southeast as late as 600 AD. This suggests to anthropologists that they were made by an aboriginal ethnic group that was gradually marginalized as Muskogean communities expanded in number and territory.\nMiddle Woodland Period (500 BC – 600 AD)\nArchaeological evidence in the Chattahoochee River Valley suggests that the first Muskogean farmers entered southeastern Alabama and western Georgia around 500 BC, after originally migrating from west-central Mexico via the Lower Mississippi. Alabama was probably already occupied by Southern Siouan ethnic groups such as the Biloxi or people related to the Ciboney of Cuba. Anthropologists currently believe that the Ciboney settled Cuba from the Gulf Coastal Plain and Florida Peninsula.\nAround 500 BC, the Santa Rosa Culture began evolving in the Florida Panhandle and extreme southern Alabama. It is named after Santa Rosa Island in Santa Rosa County, FL. Early Santa Rosa Culture villages are characterized by permanent architecture, community spaces and evidence of trade contacts with other parts of eastern North America. In particular, archaeologists have discovered trade items associated with the Midwest, as Santa Rosa villages grew in size and sophistication.\nAround 100 BC, the inhabitants of present day Geneva County began showing increasing cultural influence from the Swift Creek Culture, which originated in Georgia. Geneva County was particularly affected by this influence because it was a few days walk from the emerging Kolomoki ceremonial town site. The Santa Rosa-Swift Creek Culture people built permanent towns with horseshoe shaped plazas for playing ball games along the Choctawhatchee River.\nAnthropologists outside the Southeast often link the Swift Creek Culture with the Hopewell Culture because of the similarity in chronology. However, the Hopewell Culture in Ohio was clearly obsessed with death and contained very few, if any, permanent villages. The architecture of the two cultural zones was very different. Santa Rosa-Swift Creek earthworks were often earthen pyramids oriented to the solar azimuth. The Santa Rosa-Swift Creek peoples became increasingly dependent on agriculture and therefore generally located their villages and towns in fertile river bottomlands.\nSwift Creek Style pottery is considered some of the most beautiful ever made in North America. The Swift Creek People were also known for their finely crafted copper tools, weapons and ornaments. They built both ellipsoid shaped accretional mounds and some large pyramidal mounds for temples. The pyramidal mounds differed little in shape and function from what was being built in Mexico at the time.\nAround 250 AD, the Santa Rosa-Swift Creek Culture villages in Geneva County began evolving into the Weeden Island Culture. Weeden Island villages and ceremonial towns continued many Swift Creek traditions, but there were distinct changes in the pottery that seem to reflect Caribbean influences. Weeden Island sculptures created hollow human figures, while this was rarely, if ever, done by Swift Creek ceramicists.\nThe Swift Creek Culture collapsed in Georgia’s and Alabama’s Coastal Plain around 600 AD. Virtually, all villages below the Fall Line suddenly disappeared, but some Swift Creek villages in the mountains continued to be occupied to as late as 1000 AD. The sudden depopulation near navigable waters suggests attacks by sea craft from the Atlantic Ocean, but to date, no evidence of specific foreign invaders have been discovered by archaeologists.\nLate Woodland & Transitional Period\nThe Weeden Island Culture villages declined in population after 600 AD, started declining around 750 AD, but were not completely abandoned to until around 900 AD. Significant declines in population seem to have coincided with the rise of a very advanced culture near Lake Okeechobee, Florida.\nThe period when Weeden Island Culture disappeared and the Lake Okeechobee Culture (Belle Glade III) rose, is now known to have been a time of drought in Yucatan. Most of the large Maya cities were abandoned by this time. The Long Calendar dates were no longer inscribed on stelae. This drought may have caused Maya commoners to flee northward into the Southeastern United States, where conditions were less hostile.\nEarly Hierarchal Period (900 AD – 1150 AD)\nAll of the cultural traits, including large scale cultivation of corn, beans and squash that were associated with the “Mississippian Culture,” appeared on the Chattahoochee River in Russell County, AL and at the Ocmulgee site at Macon, GA around 900 AD. “Mississippian” style houses and mounds were not constructed at Cahokia until around 1050 AD. Therefore, the generic term “hierarchal” is a more accurate description of the cultural changes that appeared in southeastern Alabama around 900 AD. They obviously were introduced by peoples from the south, not the Mississippi River Basin.\nThe town and village sites, founded around 900 AD, in or near present day Geneva County, initially had very similar pottery and architecture to that of Ocmulgee. They probably were founded by the same ethnic group. The pottery was similar to the Plain Style Redware produced by Maya commoners that is endemic around the edges of Maya cities. The architecture was almost identical to that built by the illiterate Chontal Maya along the coast of Tabasco State in Mexico. The Chontal Maya only built earthen mounds and were illiterate during the Classic Maya Period that ended around 900 AD.\nArchaeologists generically label all of the hierarchal towns in northwestern Alabama as the Fort Walton Culture, after a mound at Fort Walton Beach, FL. However, since there has been so little professional study of the Native towns in Geneva County, it may have contained people belonging to another culture. By this time, most Muskogean provinces in the Southeast cultivated corns, bean and squash on a large scale, built mounds and evidenced hierarchal societies.\nArchitectural historians have identified four distinct cultural zones where there were extensive contrasts in architecture and town planning. These were the Pensacola-Perdido Bay Area, the Choctawhatchee River Basin, the Chattahoochee-Apalachicola River Basin and the Red Clay Hills-Fort Walton Region. These four zones, interestingly enough, correspond to four separate ethnic groups who were present when the Spanish first explored the region.\nAlong the Chattahoochee-Flint-Apalachicola River System there were three cultural phases in which architecture and cultural traditions were significantly different. The populations of these three phases, or at least their elites, may have been different ethnic groups. This basin was occupied by the Apalachicola when the Spanish arrived on the scene.\nIn the Choctawhatchee River Basin, eastward to the west bank Chipola River in Jackson County, FL the mounds are smaller and similar to those found concurrently on the coast of Georgia. Apparently, the lands between the Choctawhatchee and Chipola rivers composed a frontier between two branches of the Muskogeans.\nMiddle Hierarchal Period (1150 AD – 1300 AD)\nAt the same time that Arawak village sites first appeared in northeastern Florida, Ocmulgee and many Muskogean mound sites in southeastern Alabama were abandoned. By 1200 AD several town sites on the lower Chattahoochee River were temporarily abandoned, while others began evolving cultural traits more like those of later proto-Creek towns.\nArawak villages may have also been located in Geneva County. In the mid-1700s there were still some Arawak towns in central Alabama. These people were known as the Taosi or Tawasee In 1901, a Taino (Puerto Rican Arawak) stella was found near Atlanta, GA at a hilltop shrine overlooking the Chattahoochee River, Obviously, the Arawaks initially penetrated deep into traditional Muskogean territory, and probably caused the collapse of some provinces.\nThe ethnic identity of the Native people, occupying the Choctawhatchee River Basin during this era is not clear. The Chatot were possibly an original band of the Pensacola, who developed their own identity over the centuries.\nLate Hierarchal Period (1300 AD – 1539)\nThere was another wave of burned temples and/or town abandonments in the Chattahoochee Basin in the period between 1250 AD and 1300s AD. These seem linked to a war between indigenous Muskogeans and those migrating eastward from the Mississippi Basin. Much of the central Mississippi Basin was abandoned during this era. After 1300 AD, few, if any, pentagonal mounds were initiated. Mounds built thereafter tended to be rounded on the edges to the point that many had oval footprints.\nThe architectural evidence suggests that during the Late Hierarchal Period ethnic groups were located in the same regions, when encountered by Spanish explorers in the 16th century. These were the Pensacola around Pensacola and Perdido Bays; the Chatot, along the Choctawhatchee River; the Apalachicola along the Lower Chattahoochee and Apalachicola and Flint Rivers; and the Apalachee in the Red Clay Hills region southward to Fort Walton Beach.\nSpanish exploration and missions (1539 AD – 1705 AD)\nThe Kingdom of Spain claimed all of the Chattahoochee and Choctawhatchee River Basins, including Geneva County, from 1513 until 1745. This claim was based on Narvaez Expedition (1538,) the Hernando de Soto Expedition (1539,), the Tristan de Luna Expedition, the Juan Pardo Expedition (1567,) and a surveying expedition authorized by Governor Don Benito Ruiz de Salazar Vallecilla of the Province of La Alabama around 1647. The surveying and gold prospecting expedition followed the Chattahoochee River to its source at Unicoi Gap. The Governor then established a trading post in the vicinity of the Chattahoochee headwaters.\nIn 1675 the Spanish established four missions among the Chatot. They were probably located in present day Holmes and Jackson Counties, FL although some sources locate them in Apalachee territory, fifty miles to the east. Some Apalachicola villages eventually accepted visits by missionaries, but the ethnic group as whole stayed extremely hostile to the Spanish.\nEnd of Spanish occupation 1705 – 1763\nOnce the Chatot were officially Spanish allies, they became subject to repeated slave raids by the Cherokee and Creek allies of the English. After two invasions by British troops, combined with Native Allies of Great Britain, wiped out the Apalachee and Timucua mission system, most of the Chatot fled to Mobile. After the French lost Louisiana in 1763, most of those Chatot in Mobile moved to Texas. After that point, they disappear from historical records.\nThe Hogeloge and Tongora Bands of Yuchi People were originally located in the Upper Tennessee River Valley and Cumberland Plateau. In the late 1600s, Rickohocken Indians from Virginia and Kentucky were pressed southward into northeastern Tennessee by European settlers and Iroquois raids. After the Rickohockens became the core of the Cherokee Alliance in the early 1700s, Cherokee expansion forced the Yuchi’s to either join the alliance or move southward after the Yamasee War (1715-1717.) Many Yuchi moved to the Choctawhatchee River. Repeated conflicts with the Choctaw forced them to move northward to be among Creek Confederacy towns, but they returned to the region in the early 1800s. Most Yuchi eventually ended up in Texas or Mexico, where they disappeared from historical records.\nAfter 1705 the emerging Muskogee Confederacy increasingly controlled the hinterlands of the Alabama Panhandle to the point that the Spanish garrison was isolated in Pensacola. Creek bands hunted and settled there. At the close of the Yamasee War in 1717, many Muskogean towns in eastern Georgia relocated to the Lower Chattahoochee River or what is now southwestern Alabama. By necessity, the isolated Spanish community and their new Muskogean neighbors developed better relations. The Spanish no longer tried to forcibly convert the Muskogeans to Catholicism.\nAfter the American Revolution\nThe Florida Panhandle, including what is now extreme southern Alabama, reverted to Spanish ownership in the treaty ending the American Revolution. Spain had been an ally of United States. Strangely, France got almost nothing but the “last laugh” for its enormous contribution to the American Patriot’s victory. By this time, northwestern Alabama was solidly under the occupation of the now-powerful Creek Confederacy. During the late 1700s, the Creeks even built a navy to patrol the coast of the Alabama Panhandle. It was based in Creek towns along the Lower Chattahoochee-Apalachicola River.\nAs the Creek Confederacy lost more and more land in Georgia, many Creek towns moved down into Alabama. The Creek Confederacy towns in and around Geneva County that had entered earlier in the 1700s also were predominantly Apalachicola. They had originally spoke a language that was different from either Muskogee-Creek or Choctaw, but by this time were switching to Muskogee.\nThe majority of people in southern Alabama today, who call themselves Muskogee-Creeks, can be descended from numerous North American tribes. These include Eastern Creeks who spoke Itsati; Lower Creeks who originally spoke Apalachicola; or Yuchi, who spoke an entirely different language. Also, in the late 1700s and early 1800s hundreds of Carolina Native Americans relocated to northwestern Alabama. Some were Muskogeans, while others were Siouan or Algonquin. These immigrants often had assimilated European culture and had some European heritage. They married other races and became associated with those races; joined the Creek Confederacy; or else became labeled as Seminoles, even though they may not have had Muskogean ancestry.\nSpain ruled West Florida (which included Alabama below the 31st Parallel) until 1821. Several Creek towns and many mixed blood Creek families moved in this virtually uninhabited region after 1793, when the Creek Confederacy ceded all of its lands in eastern Georgia. Southeastern Alabama was soon viewed as traditional Creek territory by white Americans, even though their presence was relative recent.\nDuring the second Spanish colonial period, it was quite common for the Creeks, Carolina Indians, Europeans and Africans to be neighbors. There was much intermarriage between ethnic groups. Most of the Natives did not have direct political ties with the Creek Confederacy, but also did not practice semi-traditional lifestyles like the Seminoles. However, they were often labeled Seminoles.\nWhen the War of 1812 broke out, British agents working out of the Spanish town of Pensacola tried to persuade the Native Peoples of Alabama and southern Alabama to become allies of Great Britain against the United States. The Geneva County Indians had no incentive to become belligerents. Their lifestyles differed little from those of white settlers, and most were part European anyway.\nEventually, the combination of British offers for support, along with the persuasive speeches of the Shawnee leader, Tecumseh, influenced a minority of Creek towns to rebel against the national government of the Creek Confederacy. Most of the insurgents were Upper Creeks from the hill country of northern Alabama. Initial battles were between these so-called Red Sticks and the pro-American majority of the Creek Confederacy. However, after the killing of virtually all the white and Indian inhabitants of Fort Mims, Alabama, the war spread to become one between the Red Sticks and the United States. The last phase of this bloody war occurred in the Choctawhatchee Basin.\nFirst Seminole War and later Creek Wars\nAfter the catastrophic defeat of the Red Sticks at the Battle of Horseshoe Bend, surviving insurgents fled southward. A Red Stick Chief named Geneva led his town to the Choctawhatchee Basin. His town was accused of continued raids on white settlements. General Andrew Jackson also accused the Spanish of intentionally supplying him munitions to continue the Red Stick War. In 1814, Major Uriah Blue led a regiment into the future Geneva County to destroy the main town of Chief Geneva Red Stick Band.\nIntermittent raids by paramilitary units among Creeks, Seminoles and whites continued along the Alabama, Georgia-Alabama War after the official end of the Red Stick War in 1814. Like most Itsati (Hitchiti-Creeks) towns, the Miccosukee did not consider themselves to be Muskogee-Creeks.\nItsati towns continued to occupy some areas of southwest Georgia. In 1816 fighting broke out between the Miccosukee’s of southwest Georgia and American troops. The cause of this war was the Treaty of Indian Springs in 1825. Without authority of the Creek National Council, a small group of minor Muskogee in Georgia gave away virtually all of Creek sovereign lands in Georgia, including the sacred site of Ocmulgee Old Fields. Most Itsati towns had been consistent American allies. This further strengthened their position of not being bound by treaties with the Creek Confederacy.\nFort Scott was established on the Lower Chattahoochee River to guard the border with Alabama. When Americans started farming Miccosukee lands east of the Flint River, their leaders ordered them to leave. A Miccosukee town was located 15 miles east of the fort. The refusal of the garrison’s commander to comply resulted in escalating guerilla warfare. The U.S. Army sent 250 men to attack Fowltown, the Miccosukee village. They were beaten off the first day, but succeeded in burning the settlement on the second day. The next week, the Itsati attacked a riverboat bringing supplies to Fort Scott, killing most of the crew and passengers.\nAn army under Andrew Jackson invaded Spanish West Florida in 1818 and attacked Native American and African settle across the northern tier of the Spanish territory. A considerable portion of the fighting was in what is now Geneva County, AL and Holmes County, FL. Peaceful farmsteads of Creeks, Yuchi and Carolina Indian families were attacked by paramilitary bands from Georgia. This provoked them to join the hostile Creek towns. Much of the fighting in what was to become Geneva County was conducted by small bands in skirmishes.\nThis first Muskogean-American war is called the First Seminole War. However, the majority of Native American belligerents did not consider themselves “Creeks” or Seminoles. The large American army quickly crushed Native resistance. Survivors fled southward. They became allied with Muskogean towns that had been living in Florida for many decades. At the same time, the United States government labeled all Muskogeans in Spanish West Florida as being “Seminoles” regardless if they were Muskogees or Itsati’s.\nThere were two more Creek Wars and two more Seminole Wars. The Creek wars were relatively short events and of limited geographical scale. The later Seminole Wars involved fighting over much of the Florida Peninsula, but very little combat, if any, took place in Geneva County.\nThe ultimate result of the six Muskogean wars was that many peaceful Native Americans were forced out of the Alabama. While there was originally much tolerance and intermarriage between the races within Alabama, the bad feelings of these wars caused the new white majority to abuse and disfranchise Native Americans and Free Blacks. Historians believe that most Native American families, who left Geneva County in the 1820s, 1830s and 1840s, either went to the new Republic of Texas or Louisiana. The mixed-bloods easily mixed in with its multi-ethnic population.\nDescendents of Geneva County’s early 19th century Native American settlers remain in the region. The state recognized Machis Lower Creek Tribe, based in New Brockton, AL probably represents a small percentage of the total number of southeastern Alabamans with legitimate Creek Indian heritage.", "label": "No"}

You’ve already seen how you can use differential equations to find an equation that calculates the position of the pendulum at any time in the future.\nWe often say that the motion of the pendulum is deterministic: it precisely follows Newton’s laws of gravity, and there is no randomness or probability. Watch the pendulum swinging, and try to predict what it’ll do next!\nNow let’s try to make things a bit more interesting by attaching a second pendulum to the first one – this is called a double pendulum.\nOnce again, watch its motion, and try to predict what it will do next. You can even close your eyes for a few seconds … was your prediction correct?\nThe double pendulum still follows Newton’s deterministic laws of gravity, but the motion seems to\nThis becomes every more apparent if we look at multiple pendulums. Let’s add three more pendulums behind the first one, each with a tiny, imperceptible change in their initial angle (less than 0.1°). Press play again and watch what happens!\nAt the beginning the four pendulums move along the same path – but after a few seconds they\nMathematicians call this behaviour\nIt is important to realise that chaos is very different from randomness. The double pendulum contains no element of chance or probability. It follows the precise, deterministic laws of gravity, and nevertheless moves completely unpredictably.\nChaos appears in many unexpected places in nature and mathematics. In this course, we will explore some of these examples, and discover how mathematics can help us understand them.\nThe Butterfly Effect\nIn 1962, the mathematician\nLorenz had developed an algorithm that took current weather data like temperature, humidity and wind speed as inputs. It then calculated how these values would change a few minutes into the future. By repeating the process over and over again, he was able to predict the weather days, or even weeks into the future.\nOne day, Lorenz decided to run parts of his simulation a second time, with the same input data. To his surprise, the weather predictions created in both cases were completely different!\nAt first, Lorenz thought there must be a bug in the code – but he quickly worked out what was actually going on. When running the simulation a second time, he had rounded some of the input values to fewer decimal places (for example 0.506 instead of 0.506127). Even though the difference is tiny, less than 0.1%, it seems to have been enough to cause the simulation to make completely different forecasts.\nLorenz called this the butterfly effect: even the flap of a butterfly’s wings in Brazil might change the weather conditions enough to set off a tornado in Texas, at some point in the future.\nUsually, you’d expect a small change to the input parameters to also lead to a small change in the output. For chaotic systems, like the weather or the double pendulum, the opposite is true. Even tiny changes can grow quickly, and lead to huge differences.\nThis is why weather prediction only works for a few days into the future. After that, slightly inaccurate weather data can lead to completely different forecasts.\nThere is an important difference between knowing the physical laws of a system, and being able to predict its behaviour. Newton’s laws of gravity tell us exactly how the double pendulum should move. The differential equations of fluid dynamics should, in principle, allow us to calculate the weather at any time in the future.\nUnfortunately, for this to work in practice, we would have to measure the initial state of the pendulum with infinite precision, or know the exact position of every particle in the atmosphere – and that is clearly impossible. Over time, tiny measurement errors will completely throw off our predictions. In other words, we can never have a perfect weather forecast!\nOf course, a butterfly doesn’t actually cause a tornado – but it might change the conditions of the atmosphere just enough so that a tornado happens now rather than at some other time in the future.\nYou could think about it as a series of dominoes with increasing size. A small action that topples the first domino later leads to the largest domino falling:\nYou’ve already seen that the double pendulum and the weather behave chaotically, but there are countless other examples in nature and technology:\nChaotic behaviour has also been found in electronic circuits, evolutionary biology as well as dripping water taps, and scientists around the world are researching many other applications.\nBut in all these examples, the existence of chaos means that there are fundamental limits to how well we can predict the future. This is often called a prediction horizon, beyond which it is impossible to make any accurate forecasts.\nThe weather forecast currently has a prediction horizon of approximately one week, and even with much better technology in the future, we might never surpass two weeks of accuracy.\nInstead, scientists can use probability to predict averages: for example how often they’d expect certain weather events (like a tornado) to occur in a year. These averages can be very accurate, even if we don’t know when exactly a tornado might happen.\nLet’s summarise the key properties of chaos that we have discovered so far:\n- A chaotic system follows precise,\nlaws, often described by one or more differential equations.\n- Chaotic systems are highly sensitive to change.\ninitial differences multiply over time and can lead to differences in the result.\n- The behaviour is unpredictable and non-repeating. It might even look random, but only because it depends on imperceptible changes or measurement errors.\nChaos theory tells us that we can never predict the future, or know in advance what outcome our actions might have. This can be worrying if you consider how much in our world depends on mathematical predictions: from modelling the wind flowing around airplanes or skyscrapers, to assessing the impact of climate change.\nOn the other hand, chaos theory and the butterfly effect were such simple and powerful ideas, that they soon started to appear in books, music lyrics, and even in movies:", "label": "No"}

The decided memory advantage for generated targets relative to read ones is known as the generation effect. The present research is designed to study the generation effect for cues, following a depth-of-processing interpretation. The task described is to produce a word, opposite in meaning to the cue, given the cue and target with two interior adjacent letters missing. Thirty-two undergraduate students viewed a cue-target pair for five seconds, wrote the target word, and viewed the completed target for three seconds. Control subjects received the cue and the entire target, wrote the target, and reviewed the target for three seconds. All subjects received twelve items and provided data on free recall, cued recall, and recognition. Half were tested for recognition of targets, and half for recognition of cues. Results showed that the generation effect does apply to cues as well as responses, although the effect for cues is weaker, suggesting that depth of processing cannot be the only process contributing to the generation effect.

{"text": "Psychologist Howard Gardner developed the theory of multiple intelligences in the 1990s, in which he identified seven areas in which students best connect to and process information. One of those is musical intelligence, in which a student exhibits skills in composition and recognizing musical tones. Activities that promote listening skills and tie music to other lessons can enhance these students' learning experience.\nActivities involving music should be interactive. Children need opportunities to create music, so allow them to explore with simple instruments, such as drums, maracas, tambourines or rhythm sticks. Young students can learn about counting as they tap on a drum or patterns by creating rhythms with their instruments. Invite students to create their own instruments using materials from the classroom. Children can learn about comparing and contrasting by discussing the sounds the instruments produce.\nTeachers help develop listening skills by using music in the classroom. One way to increase this ability is by playing a listening bingo game. Students are given bingo cards filled with pictures of familiar objects or instruments. The teacher plays a recording of the sound each object or instrument makes and students listen to each sound. They cover the picture of the object making that sound on their bingo board as they hear it. The first person to cover all of their pictures or to get five in a row wins the game.\nYoung children are naturally drawn to music, so it can be an important tool for teaching new skills. Music can help develop language skills as students recite familiar words or learn new vocabulary. Children learn about rhyming words by singing songs, and music can help students remember new concepts. Songs can help students transition from one activity to another and help children become familiar with a classroom routine. Adding movements to songs can also engage motor skills, further developing children's abilities to use music to express themselves. Singing can be integrated into almost every subject area in a classroom to allow those with musical intelligence to learn best.\nWriting Poetry or Songs\nChildren with musical intelligence seem to find and recognize patterns, rhythms and music in almost everything they hear. Teachers can help these students connect to lessons by asking them to create a poem or song for the topic they are studying. By putting the information to a rhythm, it will become more meaningful to students with musical intelligence and they will be more likely to remember it. Ask students to explore different genres of music as they create their songs, such as rap, classical and rock.", "label": "No"}
{"text": "“Trauma reactions are normal reactions to abnormal events.”\nThere are no right and wrong ways to respond to a trauma; and your symptoms may include the following:\n– Shock, numbness, disbelief, or even denial\n– Difficulties with focusing, paying attention, concentrating and remembering\n– Powerful unpredictable mood swings\n– Anger and rage\n– Irritability/ having a short fuse\n– Intense fear and anxiety\n– Panic attacks and anxiety attacks\n– Guilt, shame, and (inappropriate) self-blame\n– The desire to isolate yourself\n– Sadness, sorrow and regret\n– Hopelessness/ an inability to see anything good in the future\n– Insomnia, nightmares, and broken sleep\n– Hypervigilant/ hyperalert/ agitation/ being on edge\n– Racing heart\n– Difficulty breathing, and regulating breathing\n– Tingling in hands and feet\n– Pain and muscle tension.\nSome of these symptoms point to PTSD, where your nervous system’s stuck in a state of constant shock. This prevents you from processing the trauma properly.\nIt is best if you can get professional help to deal with this, so you slowly start to heal (thought it’s going to take time.)\nHowever, there are also some things that you can do as well – some tips to help with your trauma recovery. They include:\n1. Get moving. Trauma dysregulates the body’s equilibrium so you’re stuck in a state of high arousal and fear. Often, exercise can help to repair the disruption, and especially if modulates your breathing and heart rate. (Yoga, and activities like walking, running, dancing and swimming are thought to be especially helpful for this.)\n2. Fight the tendency to isolate yourself. Connecting with others helps you slowly start to heal (even though you’ll likely feel that you’d much rather withdraw). You don’t have to share your feelings, or to talk about what happened. Just engaging with others helps to normalize your life.\nHowever, you will also need a person who will listen without judgment (a therapist or counsellor, a friend, or family member). This is absolutely crucial. You can’t bear this on your own.\nAlso, many people find it helps to join a group for survivors who have shared the same experience and, therefore, understand.\n3. Prioritize self-care. This includes doing your best to get some quality sleep (although PTSD often makes this difficult); making sure your diet’s healthy; spending time in nature; and doing things that help you to unwind and relax.\n“Take all the time you need to heal. Moving on doesn’t take a day. It takes a lot of little steps to break free of the past, and heal your broken self.”\nIn this post we will briefly answer a question that was asked by one of our clients.\nHere’s today’s question …\n“Why do I struggle with shame over my partner’s betrayal? He was the one who broke his promises, yet I feel completely worthless and ashamed. Why is that?”\nThere could be a number of answers to this question. Here are a few possibilities:\n1. Think about bullying, or abuse in general. When we’re singled out for some kind of mistreatment, we pick up the message “I am not worth treating well.” (Note: You are worth treating well but this is the faulty message we believe in response to being mistreated.) That message is especially powerful if it comes from someone very close to us – like a parent or spouse.\n2. If we think highly of someone, and their attention or approval means something to us, then we treat them with great respect and care. Think of the way royalty, celebrities or CEOS are treated.\nIn contrast, if we are ignored or treated badly, we feel that we don’t matter. That we’re not important. That we’re not worth respecting or caring about.\n3. We honour our partner by being faithful to them, and treating them as someone who is special to us. After all, we’ve deliberately chosen to enter into a exclusive relationship with them, and them alone.\nHence, when our partner betrays us, it communicates the message “You’re not really that special after all. I don’t just want to have sex with you”. Hence, we feel inadequate, as if we have failed, as if we are faulty, and not worthy of love (and not certainly not exclusivity).\nThis affects our self-esteem, and our identity. Here’s what Brene Brown has to say about shame:\n“I define shame as the intensely painful feeling, or experience, of believing that we are flawed and therefore unworthy of love and belonging – something we’ve experienced, done, or failed to do makes us unworthy of connection.”\nNote: You could substitute faithfulness for connection, here.\nIf you have been betrayed by your partner or spouse, then this sense of shame is absolutely not deserved. You need to resist it with all your might.\nDon’t let the lies become your own beliefs.\nDon’t let that person define your worth.\n“Know your worth. Know what you deserve. Don’t ask for it. State it.”\nEveryone has heard of the word eureka. That sudden, unexpected insight into a tough problem.\nFinding the solution that has always seemed elusive. The magic missing piece that changes how we look at things.\nEureka’s been attributed to Archimedes, a leading scientist in classical antiquity. But did you also know Eureka’s California’s motto? I guess they used to shout it when the diggers found some gold.\nAn Aha! moment\nIn daily life, we often talk about an Aha! moment. That wonderful experience when the scales fall from our eyes. The lightbulb flashes on and what was murky fog, or darkness, now suddenly makes sense and seems quite clear and obvious.\nThe Brain and Trauma\nOur brain is changed by trauma. We become a different person. We’re on a roller coaster and we’re triggered constantly. We struggle with anxiety. Our sleep is often broken. We’re always sensing danger, and we’re hypervigilant.\nWe find it hard to trust, and we feel lost and isolated. We cannot trust our judgment, and we think we’ll be deceived. Our self-esteem’s been damaged and we think we have no value.\nWe’ve lost our map and compass for a balanced, normal life.\nIs There an Answer or a Remedy?\nI wish there was an answer, a straightforward quick solution. A sharp click of the fingers. A eureka, Aha! moment.\nYes, there are bursts of insight, and occasional moves forward. But often we feel stuck, and thus unable to move on.\nComing Face-to-Face with Reality\nThe fact is, Aha! moments are unusual and uncommon.\nBut you can make real progress, and recover over time.\nIt takes great perseverance – but it’s worth the work and effort.\nFor bit by you’ll start to heal, and find yourself again.\n“Recovery is a process. It takes time. It takes patience. It takes everything you’ve got.”\nWhen your partner is battling a sex addiction, establishing boundaries is absolutely crucial. They are not going to silence all your doubts and fears, but they do give a sense of accountability. They are a fundamental part of re-establishing some trust (although, let’s be honest, that’s going to take years).\nEssentially, boundaries are important as they help protect our relationships from becoming unsafe.\nSo, what might boundaries look like to you?\n– Insisting that your partner or spouse regularly sees a counsellor\n– Insisting that your partner or spouse has an accountability partner\n– Insisting that you are the person who has administrative rights for the family computer\n– Having all the passwords to your partner or spouse’s laptop, phone and devices\n– Having your partner or spouse remove all dating apps from their ipad and phone, and insisting he deletes any accounts with companies like sex.com or Ashley Maddison\n– Insisting you have the freedom to check your partner or spouse’s messages and texts anytime you want\n– Having access to all his bank accounts – and going through statements together each month\n– Going through credit card statements together each month\n– Having your partner or spouse be accountable for his time – so you know where he is, who he is with, and what he is doing, anytime you are apart\n– Requiring your partner or spouse to break off all contact with anyone he has had a previous relationship with\n– Requiring your partner or spouse to tell you if someone from a previous relationship ever tries to contact him.\nSome of these suggestions might seem a bit extreme, but it all comes down to your peace of mind. And there are other boundaries you might want to put in place, specific to your relationship. (These different boundaries might change as time goes on.)\nDon’t hesitate to ask for what you want.\n“Boundaries are crucial. They are at the heart of every healthy relationship.”", "label": "No"}
{"text": "For decades, space experts have worried that a speeding bit of orbital debris might one day smash a large spacecraft into hundreds of pieces and start a chain reaction, a slow cascade of collisions that would expand for centuries, spreading chaos through the heavens.\nIn the last decade or so, as scientists came to agree that the number of objects in orbit had surpassed a critical mass — or, in their terms, the critical spatial density, the point at which a chain reaction becomes inevitable — they grew more anxious.\nEarly this year, after a half-century of growth, the federal list of detectable objects (four inches wide or larger) reached 10,000, including dead satellites, spent rocket stages, a camera, a hand tool and junkyards of whirling debris left over from chance explosions and destructive tests.\nNow, experts say, China’s test on Jan. 11 of an antisatellite rocket that shattered an old satellite into hundreds of large fragments means the chain reaction will most likely start sooner. If their predictions are right, the cascade could put billions of dollars’ worth of advanced satellites at risk and eventually threaten to limit humanity’s reach for the stars.\nFederal and private experts say that early estimates of 800 pieces of detectable debris from the shattering of the satellite will grow to nearly 1,000 as observations continue by tracking radars and space cameras. At either number, it is the worst such episode in space history.Continue reading the main story\nToday, next year or next decade, some piece of whirling debris will start the cascade, experts say.\n“It’s inevitable,” said Nicholas L. Johnson, chief scientist for orbital debris at the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. “A significant piece of debris will run into an old rocket body, and that will create more debris. It’s a bad situation.”\nGeoffrey E. Forden, an arms expert at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology who is analyzing the Chinese satellite debris, said China perhaps failed to realize the magnitude of the test’s indirect hazards.\nDr. Forden suggested that Chinese engineers might have understood the risks but failed to communicate them. In China, he said, “the decision process is still so opaque that maybe they didn’t know who to talk to. Maybe you have a disconnect between the engineers and the people who think about policy.”\nChina, experts note, has 39 satellites of its own — many of them now facing a heightened risk of destruction.\nPolitically, the situation is delicate. In recent years China has played a growing international role in fighting the proliferation of space junk. In 2002, for instance, it joined with other spacefaring nations to suggest voluntary guidelines for debris control.\nIn April, Beijing is to play host to the annual meeting of the advocacy group, known as the Inter-Agency Space Debris Coordination Committee. Donald J. Kessler, a former head of the orbital debris program at NASA and a pioneer analyst of the space threat, said Chinese officials at the forum would probably feel “some embarrassment.”\nMr. Kessler said Western analysts agreed that China’s new satellite fragments would speed the chain reaction’s onset. “If the Chinese didn’t do the test, it would still happen,” he said. “It just wouldn’t happen as quickly.”\nLast week in Beijing, a foreign ministry spokeswoman failed to respond directly to a debris question. Asked if the satellite’s remains would threaten other spacecraft, she asserted that China’s policy was to keep space free of weapons.\n“We are ready to strengthen international cooperation in this regard,” the spokeswoman, Jiang Yu, told reporters.\nCascade warnings began as early as 1978. Mr. Kessler and his NASA colleague, Burton G. Cour-Palais, wrote in The Journal of Geophysical Research that speeding junk that formed more junk would produce “an exponential increase in the number of objects with time, creating a belt of debris around the Earth.”\nDuring the cold war, Moscow and Washington generally ignored the danger and, from 1968 to 1986, conducted more than 20 tests of antisatellite arms that created clouds of jagged scraps. Often, they did so at low altitudes from which the resulting debris soon plunged earthward. Still, the number of objects grew as more nations launched rockets and satellites into orbit.\nIn 1995, as the count passed 8,000, the National Academy of Sciences warned in a thick report that some crowded orbits appeared to have already reached the “critical density” needed to sustain a chain reaction.\nA year later, apprehension rose as the fuel tank of an abandoned American rocket engine exploded, breaking the craft into 713 detectable fragments — until now, the record.\nAmid such developments, space experts identified the first collisions that threatened to start a chain reaction, putting analysts increasingly on edge.\nOn Jan. 17, 2005, for instance, a piece of speeding debris from an exploded Chinese rocket collided with a derelict American rocket body that had been shot into space 31 years earlier. Warily, investigators searched though orbital neighborhoods but found to their relief that the crackup had produced only four pieces of detectable debris.\nA year later, Mr. Johnson, the chief scientist for NASA’s orbital debris program, and his colleague J. -C. Liou, published an article in the journal Science that detailed the growing threat. They said orbits were now so cluttered that the chain reaction was sure to start even if spacefaring nations refrained from launching any more spacecraft.\n“The environment is unstable,” they wrote, “and collisions will become the most dominant debris-generating mechanism.”\nIt was in this atmosphere of rising tension that China last month fired a rocket into space that shattered an old weather satellite — its first successful test of an antisatellite weapon.\nDavid C. Wright, a senior scientist at the Union of Concerned Scientists, a private group in Cambridge, Mass., calculated that the old satellite had broken into 1,000 fragments four inches wide or larger, and millions of smaller ones.\nFederal sky-watchers who catalogue objects in the Earth orbit work slowly and deliberately. As of yesterday, they publicly listed 647 detectable pieces of the satellite but were said to be tracking hundreds more.\nThe breakup was dangerous because the satellite’s orbit was relatively high, some 530 miles up. That means the debris will remain in space for tens, thousands or even millions of years.\nMr. Kessler, the former NASA official, now a private consultant in Asheville, N.C., said China might have chosen a relatively high target to avoid directly threatening the International Space Station and its astronaut crew, which orbit at a height of about 220 miles.\n“Maybe the choice was to endanger the station in the short term or to cause a long-term problem,” he said. “Maybe that forced them to raise the orbit.”\nEven so, the paths of the speeding Chinese debris, following the laws of physics and of celestial mechanics, expanded in many directions, including upward and downward. As of last week, outliers from the central cloud stretched from roughly 100 miles to more than 2,000 miles above the Earth.\nA solution to the cascade threat exists but is costly. In his Science paper and in recent interviews, Mr. Johnson of NASA argued that the only sure answer was environmental remediation, including the removal of existing large objects from orbit.\nRobots might install rocket engines to send dead spacecraft careering back into the atmosphere, or ground-based lasers might be used to zap debris.\nThe bad news, Mr. Johnson said in his paper, is that “for the near term, no single remediation technique appears to be both technically feasible and economically viable.”\nIf nothing is done, a kind of orbital crisis might ensue that is known as the Kessler Syndrome, after Mr. Kessler. A staple of science fiction, it holds that the space around Earth becomes so riddled with junk that launchings are almost impossible. Vehicles that entered space would quickly be destroyed.\nIn an interview, Mr. Kessler called the worst-case scenario an exaggeration. “It’s been overdone,” he said of the syndrome.\nStill, he warned of an economic barrier to space exploration that could arise. To fight debris, he said, designers will have to give spacecraft more and more shielding, struggling to protect the craft from destruction and making them heavier and more costly in the process.\nAt some point, he said, perhaps centuries from now, the costs will outweigh the benefits.\n“It gets more and more expensive,” he said. “Sooner or later it gets too expensive to do business in space.”Continue reading the main story", "label": "No"}
{"text": "The global digital skills crisis is worsening and here’s why – in 10 years time, according to the World Economic Forum (WEF), the jobs of 1.2 billion employees worldwide – the equivalent of half of the global workforce – will have undergone varying levels of change due to the adoption of technologies, such as automation and artificial intelligence (AI).\nWhile most staff will operate alongside machines rather than being replaced by them (only 5% of the workforce), a huge nine out of 10 will require digital skills to be able to work effectively, exacerbating a shortage of expertise that is already troubling.\nTo make matters worse, another WEF report entitled ‘Accelerating the Digital Inclusion in the New Normal’ indicates that 47% of the world’s population currently remains “unconnected”. This means that in lower-income economies, an average of only 32% of the population has basic digital skills, which includes being able to send emails.\nEven in higher-income economies, the figure rises to less than two thirds at only 62%, before dropping back down to 44% in relation to standard skill levels, which includes being able to create an electronic presentation.\nSo on the face of it, the situation does not look good. However, initiatives are taking place all around the world in a bid to do something about it. At a panel event during techUK’s London Tech Week conference, spokespeople from the European Union, Singapore and India all talked about the work being undertaken in their areas to boost digital skills uptake.\nIn the European Union (EU), 44% of citizens lack basic digital skills. But even among people with medium to advanced skill levels, there is still inadequate expertise in fields like data analysis, particularly in industries that are considered key to the future, such as advanced manufacturing. Vincenzo Renda, Senior Policy Manager for Digital Industrial Transformation at DigitalEurope, a membership body representing the digital tech industry, explains:\nIn advanced manufacturing, there’s a lot of machinery with sensors but we don’t have enough operators or technicians to understand what these digital solutions do. So there’s a strong need to ensure that the existing workforce has the skills not just at shop floor level but also among people like mechanical engineers as they need to know about data and how to interpret it.\nAs to what is being done to address this situation, he cites a number of examples: The Finnish government, for example, worked together with industry and academia to create a six-week-long massive open online course (Mooc) called “Elements of AI’, which it unveiled in 2018.\nThe aim was to encourage 1% of the 5.5 million-strong Finnish population to learn the basics of AI, but the course has now officially been made available to members of other European Union states – although the lack of geographic restrictions means it can actually be accessed globally.\nA second EU-funded initiative, meanwhile, comprises the Sector Skills Alliances. These Alliances consist of a consortium of public and private sector organisations from at least three EU countries.\nTheir role is to identify labour market needs and support the design and delivery of both transnational vocational and training content as well as teaching and training methodologies at the local level. In a tech context, the three key areas of focus consist of blockchain, cybersecurity and software services.\nBut Renda is also a fan of the European Center for the Development of Vocational Training’s AI-based skills forecasting software, although he points out:\nWe’re not pumping enough into forecasting what future skills we’ll need by looking at existing data and drawing inferences from it as to skills requirements over the next five to 10 years. But the advantage of doing so is that it helps better prepare training systems by pointing out the direction of travel going forward and helping providers align future offerings.\nSingapore takes very seriously the WEF’s contention that the half-life of any job skill is five years. As a result, the government encourages the practice of lifelong learning among its 5.9 million citizens and provides each of them with annual credits to support this upskilling process.\nIt also offers 25,000 online courses, 6,000 of which focus on key topics that the state is keen to focus on moving forward: data analysis, digital media and advanced manufacturing. But a number of initiatives have likewise been introduced to provide a skills leg-up to those who might need it.\nFor example, the government’s Future Skills programme includes a Career Conversion scheme for mid-career workers, which it sees as being demographically most prone to digital disruption given their current experience and salary levels. The initiative, which is 70%-subsidised, consists of a mix of classroom and on-the-job training and helps with new job placements if required.\nA second, COVID-19-related scheme, which is 80% funded by the government, is likewise intended to support 100,000 young graduates – the equivalent of 3% of the total workforce – as they have been most affected employment-wise by the pandemic.\nIn order to make such initiatives as relevant as possible, both were born of a public-private partnership arrangement. With a similar idea in mind, the government has also started working with long-term resident, big tech vendors, such as Google, in a bid to boost employment elsewhere too.\nIn July, the two partners launched a news jobs and skills training initiative called the Skills Ignition SG, which consists of two different schemes. The first targeted 2,400 mid-career professionals, who are being given the chance to upskill by attending full-time training courses in cloud computing and digital marketing. Each course lasts for six months and participants receive a monthly training allowance of US$1,097.\nThe second programme provides 600 job-seekers and graduates with three months of online vocational training followed by six months of on-the-job training opportunities and a further six months of hands-on work experience. Google will offer 100 employment places and the rest will be provided by key partners.\nBut even despite these initiatives, YC Choy, Regional Vice President of the Economic Development Board of Singapore, still believes the city-state has a long way to go skills-wise if it is to truly become the commercial, tech and innovation hub it aspires to be. What it really requires, he says, is individuals not just with digital skills, but also with sector expertise – especially in fields, such as healthcare, biotech, and energy sustainability – and sufficient knowledge and experience of working with data to know how to unlock its value. As a result, he states:\nA solution is not that simple. There’s a global bottleneck and competition between different countries, industries and companies. So this is an offer and call to action to create digital unicorn talent. To do so, we need cross-pollination across different entities, such as innovation centres and universities in places like Singapore and London. This means different countries coming together and working on a talent pipeline to enlarge the pie for everyone.\nIndia’s digital skills challenges are quite different from those of more developed countries in that, far from having an ageing workforce, it is expected to add 100 million people to its current working population of 470 million over the next 10 years.\nSome 4.3 million of these workers are currently employed in the tech industry, a sector that Amit Aggarwal, Vice President and Chief Executive of the IT-ITES sector skills council and co-architect of the National Association of Software and Service Companies’ Future Skills platform, describes as “one of the country’s shining lights”. But he also acknowledges that a high percentage of India’s population currently lacks even basic digital skills, despite the benefits technology could bring in terms of improving citizen services, such as healthcare.\nNonetheless, he says that the country, after being “inspired” by Singapore’s actions, is now launching a programme to provide scholarships to 400,000 individuals in order to help them learn about emerging technologies. Some tech companies and training providers are also being good corporate citizens by offering people digital courses for free or at a discount, while academic institutions are likewise providing virtual skills training.\nBut, like Choy, Aggarwal believes much could be gained at a global level by collaboration:\nLike the AI course in Finland, once it’s built it can be used by every citizen in the world at very little incremental cost. So local countries could develop a platform and then open up their educational resources to help reskill people across the world. It’s possibly about a year and a half away from everything being solid enough, but if everyone made public resources for the world, we’d all get a lot of value.\nWhile each country and region may have come up with its own solutions for how to best support digital skills development, a clear message to come out of the discussion was that ultimately collaboration is the most effective way forwards. In other words, this is a global problem and so, rather than reinvent the wheel in multiple countries across the world, everyone would benefit from learning from each others’ lessons, experience and offerings. Because as we all know, the whole is always so much better than the sum of its parts.\nBest Places in China that are Worth Visiting\nTU Women’s Leadership Collective Programs Offer Mentorship, Skill-Building Opportunities\nGraduate Studies Launches Institute for Professional Development", "label": "No"}
{"text": "ONE cloud that seems to hang over an otherwise sunny hamburger-and-hot-dog-bar becue day is all the talk about burnt meats containing carcinogens.\nDr. Michael Pariza, director of the Food Research Institute at the University of Wisconsin at Madison, says there are two issues here. First, where there is smoke, there may be a carcinogen called benzopyrene.\n''When fat from, for instance, a hamburger, drips onto the coals, the combustion causes smoke to come up and be absorbed into the surface of the meat,'' Dr. Pariza explained. ''The smoke contains benzopyrene,'' he said. In pure form, it has caused cancer in laboratory animals.\nThen there are substances in food that, when cooked, may be dangerous. Proteins burned to a crisp beget mutagens, gene-damaging chemicals that have caused cancer in laboratory animals.\nOther carcinogenic substances, creatines, are created when meat from mammals is subjected to regular cooking temperatures.Continue reading the main story\nDr. Pariza said, however, that to equal the levels of such carcinogens that produced tumors in laboratory animals, people must eat ''tons and tons'' of hamburger, a feat even the most Wimpy-like among us would find difficult.\nLong-running research in several university laboratories, including one at the University of Wisconsin, has shown that the diets of the animals whose meat we barbecue may affect the cancer-causing nature of those meats. There also is a natural cancer inhibitor in meats known as CLA, or conjugated linoleic acid.\nIt sounds confusing and serious, but barbecue aficionados need not worry if they follow some common-sense guidelines about how, and how often, to barbecue.\nThe most important preventive measure you can take is to invoke the rule of moderation, in the temperatures at which you barbecue, in the frequency with which you eat barbecued foods and in the types of foods you barbecue; too much meat, regardless of how it is cooked, may increase your cancer risk.\n''If you eat barbecue twice a day, there might be problems,'' said Florence Antoine, a science writer at the National Cancer Institute in Bethes da, Md. But there is no evidence that eating barbecued meat once a week increases cancer risks.\nThe Cancer Institute suggests cooking foods at lower temperatures. This means raising barbecue grills and lowering broiler racks.\nIf you intend to use wood when you barbecue, get hardwoods like maple or hickory rather than soft, resinous woods like pine. And stay away from the European practice of cooking over pine-cone fires. Pine cones and soft woods deposit large amounts of benzopyrene on food.\nMesquite wood deposits slightly higher levels of benzopyrene than other hard woods, but Dr. Pariza said that is not a problem for the average ''Kiss the Chef'' barbecuer, who throws a handful of mesquite chips on the coals.\nDr. Barry Commoner, the director of the Center for the Biology of Natural Systems at Queens College, said he knows of no advantage lava rocks - reusable coals - have over regular charcoal. ''If they're hot and fat drips on them you'll get nasty things,'' he said, as with charcoal.\nDr. Commoner, a serious barbecue fan, is having a special vertical barbecue made for him. The meat is hung on a folding rack between two vertical piles of coals. The fat drips down, avoiding the coals.\n''It all comes down to how you're cooking,'' said Dr. Pariza. And what you are cooking on. ''Proper air circulation is very important,'' he said. That is something you are more likely to achieve with a good kettle-style barbecue than with a small hibachi.\nAnticancer cooking tips are given in a publication from the National Cancer Institute called ''Diet, Nutrition and Cancer Prevention: The Good News.'' Write the Office of Cancer Communications, Building 31, Room 10A-24, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, Md. 20892. Ask for publication No. 87-2878.\nMs. Antoine said that to balance your dietary karma, you can eat broccoli, brussels sprouts or other high-fiber, vitamin-rich green vegetables, which are known allies in the war on cancer. Such vegetables don't lend themselves to grilling, but are worth the trouble it takes to boil water.\nFish is still a good choice for barbecuing, since it seems to form few mutagens during cooking and contains fats shown to protect against cancer.\nOf course, you can't wear your cancer wisdom as a shield against burns. To keep yourself in the backyard and away from a hospital emergency room, use a decent grill, not the $4.99 specials whose legs bow out under the weight of a few briquettes. You will just end up dumping hot coals all over your bare feet, which brings us to another caution: wear shoes and fireproof mitts. When Grilling, Don't Get Burned\nDON'T use kerosene or gasoline to start a barbecue. To pep up a dying fire, take a few briquettes, put them in a pie plate and soak them with starter fluid. Add them to the pile already in the grill, and relight. You can go natural -using paper, twigs or sticks - to start a fire. Or try the chimney-style canister starter, with paper at the bottom and coals on top, to get things going. If you decide to use an electric starter, observe the usual precautions against shock.\nTo make your barbecuing experience as healthy as possible, don't burn or char meat. Barbecue or not, any pan searing or prolonged exposure to heat will result in pretty thorough charring. So it's better to cook on a metal grill than, for instance, in a cast-iron skillet, since the skillet increases contact with hot metal.\nUse lower-fat cuts of beef so that fat doesn't drip on coals and cause flare-ups.\nCook food on foil on the grill. This prevents contact with flame.\nMove food away from the heat source. In an oven, lower your broiler pan on the rack. On a barbecue, raise the grill.\nBarbecue in a well-vented place, where smoke can waft away instead of accumulating on food. Be sure plenty of air circulates around cooking food.\nIf you barbecue with wood, know where the wood came from. Don't use wood from known pesticide-treated areas.

{"text": "Mozart or Mendelssohn, or our own Purcell, must be accounted for on the ground partly of his extra- ordinary exertions, but still more of the privations to which he was subjected from his very earliest years. His productions are enormous, even when measured by those of the two great German com- posers just named, or even of Beethoven, who lived to nearly double his years. At an age when Beethoven had produced one Symphony, he had written ten, besides all the mass of works great and small which form the extraordinary list in the Appendix to this article. ' Fairer hopes ' ? Had he lived, who can doubt that he would have thrown into the shade all his former achieve- ments ? But as we have endeavoured to explain, his music came so easily and rapidly that it was probably not exhausting. It was his privations, his absolute poverty, and the distress which he naturally felt at finding that no exertions could improve his circumstances, or raise him in the scale of existence, that in the end dragged him down. His poverty is shocking to think of. Nearly the first distinct glimpse we catch of him is in the winter of 1812, supplicating his brother for a roll, some apples, or a few halfpence, to keep off the hunger of the long fast in the freezing rooms of the Convict. Within a year of his death we catch sight of him again, putting up with coffee and biscuits because he has not 8%d. to buy his dinner with; selling his great Trio for 1 75. 6d. and his songs at lod. each, and dying the possessor of effects which were valued at little more than two pounds. Beside this the poverty of Mozart the first of the two great musicians whom Vienna has allowed to starve was wealth.\nSuch facts as these reduce the so-called friend- ship of his associates to its right level. With his astonishing power of production the commonest care would have ensured him a good living ; and that no one of his set was found devoted enough to take this care for him, and exercise that watch over ways and means which Nature had denied to his own genius, is a discredit to them all. They prate of their devotion to their friend, when not one of them had the will or the wit to prevent him from starving ; for such want as he often endured must inevitably have injured him, and we cannot doubt that his death was hastened by the absence of those comforts, not to say neces- saries, which should have nursed and restored the prodigal expenditure of his brain and nerves.\nWe are accustomed to think of Beethoven's end as solitary and his death as miserable, but what was his last illness compared to Schubert's ? Officious friends, like Pasqualati, sending him wine and delicacies ; worshipping musicians, like Hummel and Hiller, coming to his deathbed as if to a shrine ; his faithful attendants, Schindler, Hiittenbrenner and Breuning waiting on his every wish ; the sense of a long life of honour and renown ; of great works appreciated and beloved; the homage of distant countries, ex- pressed in the most substantial forms what a contrast to the lonely early deathbed, and the apparent wreck of such an end as Schubert's ! Time haa so altered the public sense of his merits\n��that it is all but impossible to place oneself in the forlorn condition in which he must have resigned himself to his departure, and to realise the darkness of the valley of the shadow of death through which his simple sincere guileless soul passed to its last rest, and to the joyful resurrection and glorious renown which have since attended it. Then an intelligent and well- informed foreign musician could visit the Aus- trian capital and live in its musical circles, without so much as hearing Schubert's name. 1 Now memorials are erected to him in the most public places of Vienna, institutions are proud to bear his name, his works go through countless editions, and publishers grow rich upon the pro- ceeds even of single songs, while faces brighten and soften, and hands are clasped, as we drink in the gay and pathetic accents of his music.\nFor even his privations and his obscurity have now been forgotten in the justice since done to him, and in the universal affection with which he was regarded as soon as his works reached the outside world an affection which, as we have conclusively shown, has gone on increasing ever since his death\". In the whole range of composers it may be truly said that no one is now so dearly loved as he, no one has the happy power so completely of attracting both the ad- miration and the affection of his hearers. To each one he is not only a great musician, not only a great enchanter, but a dear personal friend. If in his ' second state sublime ' he can know this, we may feel sure that it is a full compensation to his affectionate spirit for the many wrongs and disappointments that he en- dured while on earth.\nThe very wide field over which Schubert ranged in poetry has been more than once alluded to in the foregoing. It would be both interesting and profitable to give a list of the poems which he has set. Such a list, not without inaccuracies, will be found in Wurzbach's ' Biographical Lexi- con,' vol. xxxii. p. 94. Here we can only say that it includes 634 poems, by 100 authors, of whom the principal are :\nGoethe 72; Schiller 54; Mayrhofer48; Miiller 44; Holty 25; Matthisson 27; Kosegarten 20; F. Schlegeli9; Klopstockip; Korneri6; Schober 15; Seidl 15; Salis 14; Claudius 13; Walter Scott 10 ; Rellstab 9 ; Uz 8 ; Ossian 7 ; Heine 6 ; Shakspeare 3 ; Pope I ; Colley Cibber I ; etc. etc.\n�� ��VOL. III. PT. 3.\n��Compared with the literature on other com- posers that on Schubert is not extensive.\nBiographical. The original sources are scat- tered in German periodicals and elsewhere.\n1. The first place must be given to Ferdinand Schu- bert's sketch, entitled 'Aus Franz Schuberts Leben,' four short papers which appeared in Schumann's period- ical, the 'Neue Zeitschrift fur Musik,' in Nos. 33-36 (April 23 May 3), 1839. These are written with great simplicity, and apparently great exactness ; but might\ni Tha allusion la to E. Holmes, the biographer of Mozart, who passed some time in Vienna in the spring of 1827, evidently with the Tiew of finding out all that was best worth knowing in music, and yet does not mention Schubert's name.

{"text": "August 18, 2017\nThe book of Esther explains the origin of the Jewish holiday called “Purim.” The name is taken from the Persian word “Pur,” which meant “lot.” After Haman was promoted by King Xerxes (“Ahasuerus”), he was enraged by Mordecai the Jew’s failure to bow down at his passing. He determined to go before the king with a scheme to murder not only Mordecai, but the entire Jewish population within Persia. The casting of lots (“Pur”) was called for by Haman in order to determine the most fortuitous date for carrying out his scheme. Yet, even though the name of God is not named even once in the book of Esther, His hand is clearly seen in the result of the lot falling twelve months later. For this gave both Mordecai and Esther time to mediate for the Jewish people and ultimately save them from Haman’s plot. As the proverb is written, “The lot is cast into the lap, but its every decision is from the Lord” (Prov. 16:33). Even when the Lord is apparently absent, He is still working behind the scenes His purposes to unfold.\nAugust 19, 2016\nWhen the evil Haman convinced the king of Persia to issue a decree to annihilate the Jews, Queen Esther asked her fellow Jews to fast and pray for three days. One night during this time of prayer and fasting, the king couldn’t sleep. He asked his servants to bring his book of chronicles and memorable deeds and read them to him. Perhaps he hoped to fall asleep to their bedtime reading. However, the section they read reminded him of how Esther’s relative Mordecai had helped save him from an assassination conspiracy. This led to him honoring Mordecai and eventually, hanging Haman. What a coincidence that the king’s insomnia led to reading the exact report concerning Mordecai. This little book of Esther, which is notable in that it never mentions God, is filled with such “coincidences.” While God’s people fasted and prayed, He worked behind the scenes to move the king’s hand.\nAugust 19, 2015\nThe orphaned Esther won King Xerxes’ beauty contest and was crowned as his queen. She went from being a Jewish orphan to a Persian queen. Yet, her cousin, Mordecai, who had raised her as his own when her parents died, asked her not to forget her people and to consider God’s purpose for her new position. When God elevates us to a new job or position, we should always consider how we might use it as a platform for doing His will. “Who knows?” Perhaps God put you just where you are today, so that you might tell someone about the One who can rescue them from sin and death.\nAugust 18, 2014\nThe book of Esther is unique not in what it names, but in what it doesn’t. For the name of God is not mentioned. Yet clearly, God can be seen between the lines of every chapter. When God’s people find themselves under persecution, they often feel that God has abandoned them. They don’t see that He is at work behind the scenes. Esther, whose Hebrew name was Hadassah, became the queen of Persia, not by accident, but by God’s purpose in order to save the Jews from genocide. This little orphaned Jewish girl was adopted by her cousin Mordecai and chosen by King Xerxes to be Queen. She was the winner of the king’s Miss Universe contest. Her Persian name, Esther, means “star” (the word “aster” as in “asteroid,” is derived from the same root.). She was indeed a “star” in Persia and in the history of the Jews, as God used her to influence Xerxes decision to save them. Why has God given you your position of influence? Perhaps it’s for more than you think.\nAugust 20, 2012\nNoted for the absence of God’s name in its text, the book of Esther describes the origin of the Hebrew holiday of Purim. While God is not mentioned specifically, His help and favor are implied between the lines. I wonder how often God is at work in our lives without getting credit?\nAugust 19, 2011\nEsther won a beauty contest to become queen of Persia. God used her position to save her people. Why have you come into your position? Is it for your edification or is it a platform from which to announce the coming King?", "label": "No"}
{"text": "Synthetic fertilizer use contributes to manatee, dolphin, and pelican deaths\nSynthetic fertilizer running off into the Indian River estuary may have contributed to disrupting the balance of its rich marine ecosystem. Recent nitrogen spikes in the water have caused large algal blooms, which blanket the estuary and kill the underwater sea grass fields that are the main food source and habitat for the estuary fauna. Sea grass is a large part of the manatee diet, and its disappearance has coincided with Banana River manatee deaths, potentially caused by algae consumption. In the past year, 280 manatees have died, accompanied by pelicans and bottlenose dolphins. While the specific causes of these deaths remain elusive, many scientists hypothesize that the algal blooms are responsible. The estuary is badly overloaded with nitrogen, an essential plant nutrient found in fertilizers, containing 45 percent more nitrogen than is acceptable.

{"text": "Unprecedented disclosures from the University of California recently hit the scientific world. The Vegetal DNA Biologic Unit, led by professor Jason K. Sirztlig, published an article on the Tree Journal, demonstrating a common genetic code between humans and plants. Sirztlig claims vegetal life was thriving on our planet well before the first animal ever set paw or hoof on its surface. Algae formed 3.4 billion years ago while the first animals showed up 2.8 billion years later.\nIf this new theory, supported by scientific evidence (still waiting for approval) is going to be correct, the Radix Communis by Ernst Haeckel, considered the most accurate evolutionary map for more than 150 years, must be entirely reconsidered.\nThe tree of life – Sirztlig sustains – starts from a tree. “It’s not a coincidence we have been using the tree, with all its branches, to illustrate a metaphor of our evolution”. Sirztlig has been studying sequoia trees for 50 years. What initially was, in his words, a flight of imagination, soon became a lifetime’s obsession. “For many years nobody considered even for a second my theory” – Sirztlig explained at a TED conference last month – “even my closest collaborators in Prague were skeptical. Then, in the spring of 1987, I met these guys from the Brandpowder Team. They immediately showed a keen interest for my ideas and introduced me to Karl Mutt, then director of the Bio Genetic Lab at UCLA. He was the only one willing to listen to my story and to give me the necessary support. In a matter of few weeks I had ten people working for me on the project. I was asked to work in an underhand manner. The whole thing was partly financed by private investors and pharmaceutical companies that were paranoid about information leaks.

When he speaks of human blood and its “shared roots” with chlorophyll, for instance, he ventures to say our blood was originally green, only to turn red, its complementary color, two million years ago.\nTruth is, many aspects of Sirztlig’s theory remain still foggy if not unclear. To admit sequoia trees are in some ways our relatives is a bit too speculative, but all of us at Brandpowder are still happy to have been helpful to Mr Sirztlig because new theories are always welcome, especially when they challenge the corrupted status quo of the scientific world.\nProfessor Jason K.

University of Nebraska-Lincoln.\nThough media portrayal of lesbian, gay, and bisexual individuals has increased significantly in recent years, the representation has brought and cemented harmful stereotypes along with it. People who are discovering their identity as sexual minorities might consume media that portrays LGBTQ individuals negatively, or even kills them in many cases, and believe that they are doomed to the same outcome. Literature is no exception to this influx of negative stereotypes. The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of stereotypes in LGBTQ literature on those who identify with the characters presented in the text to the same extent that LGBTQ stereotypes in television have been explored. This study employs priming to determine if negative or positive biases in literature excerpts cause readers to perceive their sexuality negatively or positively respectively, with a neutral text as a control condition. By contacting over 100 LGBTQ resource centers at universities across the country and having their leaders send the survey to their listserv, 50 participants were recruited to respond to the survey.

{"text": "By Ana Theresa F. Basilio-Williams\nYour thyroid is a but-terfly-shaped gland located at the base of your neck just below your Adam’s apple. Goiter is an abnormal enlarge-ment of your thyroid gland. Al-though goiters are usually painless, a large goiter can cause a cough and make it difficult for you to swallow or breathe.\nThe most common cause of goiter worldwide is a lack of iodine in the diet. In the United States, where the use of iodized salt is common, a goiter is more often due to the over- or underproduction of thyroid hormones or to nodules that develop in the gland itself.\nTreatment depends on the size of the goiter, your symptoms and the under-lying cause. Small goiters that aren’t noticeable and don’t cause problems usually don’t need treat-ment. And with the big size of goiter that Miss BB has, she certainly needs an operation soon because of the presence of dyspnea or difficulty in breathing.\nYour thyroid gland pro-duces two main hormones — thyroxine (T-4) and triiodothyronine (T-3).\nThese hormones circu-late in your bloodstream and help regulate your metabolism. They maintain the rate at which your body uses fats and carbohydrates, help control your body temperature, influence your heart rate, and help regulate the production of proteins. Your thyroid gland also produces calcitonin — a hormone that helps regulate the amount of calcium in your blood.\nYour pituitary gland and hypothalamus control the rate at which these hormones are produced and released.\nThe pro-cess begins when the hypothalamus — an area at the base of your brain that acts as a thermos-tat for your whole system — signals your pituitary gland to make a hormone known as thyroid-stimu-lating hormone (TSH). Your pituitary gland — also located at the base of your brain — releases a certain amount of TSH, depending on how much thyroxine and T-3 are in your blood. Your thyroid gland, in turn, regulates its production of hormones based on the amount of TSH it receives from the pituitary gland.\nHaving a goiter doesn’t necessarily mean that your thyroid gland isn’t working normally. Even when it’s enlarged, your thyroid may produce normal amounts of hormones. It might also, however, produce too much or too little thyroxine and T-3.\nAside from iodine defi-ciency, you have thyroid gland enlargement when there’s too much thyroid hormone or hyperthyroi-dism leading to Graves’ disease. Another common cause is Hashimoto’s disease or the opposite of Graves’ where there’s underactive thyroid known as hypothyroidism.\nMultinodular goiter, solitary thyroid nodules, thyroid cancer, pregnancy and thyroiditis or inflam-matory condition of the thyroid gland all can lead to goiter.\nHEALTHWATCHING: Cast all your anxieties unto Me (Jesus Christ) because I cared for you. 1 Peter 5:7", "label": "No"}
{"text": "We all know what its like to be on the inside and on the outside. High school was full of various ups and downs that made us feel on top of the world one day and at the bottom of the food chain the next. Some of us have gone through life feeling on the outside, without anywhere to turn. In Rabelais’ Gargantua and Pantagruel, Montaigne’s Essays, and Shakespeare’s Othello, the experiences of being on the inside with that of being on the outside are often hard to differentiate. In Francois Rabelais’ Gargantua and Pantagruel, the distinction between the outside and the inside involves the outside of Pantagruel’s mouth with the world inside his mouth. When Alcofribas first descended into Pantagruel’s mouth, he discovered a man planting cabbage.\nHe found that there were several people living in Pantagruel’s mouth that fed off of the birds that flew in and the food that Pantagruel had eaten. The people had learned to survive in there for some time. Alcofribas soon discovered that the world in Pantagruel’s mouth was not that different from the world outside. The citizens still had to work and provide for themselves. However, he liked it better than the outside world because he was not required to do much and it was mostly a safe place to live, aside from the robbers in the valley.\nAlcofribas stayed much longer than he had planned because it turned out to be so much easier for him to live inside Pantagruel’s mouth. Eventually, Alcofribas wrote about his feelings of the world inside titled History of An Elegant Throat Land, which he had named the land inside Pantagruel. Alcofribas never stated which world he would rather live in, but only says of the two: “And I began to think how true it was that half the world has no idea how the other half lives, seeing as no one has ever written a thing about that world down there, although it is inhabited by more than twenty-five kingdoms… .” (The Norton Anthology, 1920).\n... fall open. A wave of fresh air rushed inside the train.People inhumanly crammed, buried under incredible ... -weary, desperate cries. Heads push through the windows, mouths gasp frantically for air. They draw a few breaths, ... were a superior race destined to rule the world. Hitler drilled this thought into the minds ... to mind. To be more specific, many world-changing events have occurred. Many of them have ...\nThe comparison of experiences between the outside and the inside in Gargantua and Pantagruel is very similar in that the people in both worlds do what they must to survive. Also, both worlds think that they are the most important, mainly because they have never experienced the other world. The people inside Pantagruel’s mouth knew of an outside world, but they were mainly concerned with how they lived and what came from that world that helped them. Those that lived in the outside world were not even aware that another world apart from theirs existed. Rabelais used this to draw attention to the fact that we assume that we are the only ones in this world and that where we live is the most important. In Gargantua and Pantagruel, the literal outside world thinks that they are on the inside figuratively and the literal inside world thinks the same thing, but neither realizes that one is no better than the other.\nIn Montaigne’s Essays, “Of Cannibals” is related to European society of that time. Montaigne compares and contrasts Europe with a band of natives that practice cannibalism. He criticizes what he sees as social flaws, such as “treachery, disloyalty, tyranny, and cruelty,” (Norton, 1939) and expresses rage at what he sees as society’s acceptance of these “ordinary vices.” Throughout the essay, Montaigne’s words become more harsh towards the Westerners. He also lets us know that the natives are not as pure as he led on when he reveals the reason for their cannibalism, stating “this is not, as many people think, for nourishment… it is to betoken an extreme revenge.” (Norton, 1938) He appallingly uses this knowledge to show how much worse his own culture is by describing the torture Westerner’s inflict on their own enemies.\n... manner we have been conditioned and programmed.

In the same way, in Brave New World, people feel sickness and are disgusted with looking Linda. Contrast to ... people in Brave New World, Linda! s aging, senility and ugliness makes ...\nMontaigne adopts the natives’ view that Westerners are “much greater masters than themselves in every sort of wickedness.” He also writes against his people, saying, “So we may call these people barbarians, in respect to the rules of reason, but not in respect to ourselves, who surpass them in every kind of barbarity.” (Norton, 1938) Montaigne also said that there was more barbarity in eating a man while he was still alive, which the Westerners did, than in eating him while he was already dead, which the natives did. Montaigne once again compares this to the European society of that time, saying “we have not only read but seen within fresh memory, not among ancient enemies, but among neighbors and fellow citizens” (Norton, 1938) He was an outsider in a world and at a time when it was dangerous, speaking out against the so-called “insiders” in Europe. In William Shakespeare’s Othello, the comparisons of being on the outside with that of being on the inside are more blunt and outright. We are aware from the beginning that Othello is a different race from the others by Iago’s remarks that he is “the Moor”, “the thick lips”, a “barbary horse,” and an “old black ram” (Norton, 2116-2119) They also refer to Othello as “he” and “him” when mentioned, never out rightly saying his name.\nOthello is the outsider from the beginning, but he proves to be the better man throughout the play. Iago is the one on the inside of their society, but he proves to be a bad man. Othello is on the outside from the rest of his society in a good way as well. Everyone looks up to him for his conquests and heroic efforts. When the Duke hears from Barbanzio, he is ready to convict the man who stole Barbanzio’s daughter, until he hears it is Othello. He then gives him a chance to defend himself, showing the respect that the people feel for Othello, saying “What in your own part can you say to this?” (Norton, 2124) Othello then woos the crowd with words, as he did with Desdemona.\n... of Iago leads him to almost get away with the systematic murder of four people. As well as turning the noble Othello into ... that another has conspired to ruin Othello s honeymoon. When Brabantio confronts Othello, Iago takes his place as Othello s one and only loyal ... by individuals. One can clearly see these flaws in Othello when Iago pours lies into his head about Desdemona and Cassio. In ...\nOthello has a good heart, but lets his jealousy get in the way too often, resulting in tragedy. The whole story begins with Iago’s jealousy of Othello and how much the people respect him, even though he is black. Even back then, people were still showing indifference towards people of various races. Iago wanted the crowd to think of him like they thought of Othello, or he wanted to have inside what Othello did. Iago tried to take the exterior of Othello and use it to his advantage and Othello’s disadvantage. In the end, Othello’s exemplary blackness among the whites in Othello proved to be the basis for all that happened throughout.\nIf Iago had not used the racial names in the beginning, then Barbanzio would not have gone into such an uproar and Othello and Desdemona would have lived. There is a saying that comes to mind when I analyze these stories: What is popular is not always right, and what is right is not always popular. This phrase could describe Rabelais’ Gargantua and Pantagruel in that Rabelais’ wrote about what was unknown at the time, saying that we may not be the only people living, and that there could be various worlds that exist that we don’t know about. When I read Montaigne’s Essays, I immediately thought of that quote because Montaigne wrote about the cruelty of the people in Europe of that time, despite what the people would think of him. As for Shakespeare’s Othello, Iago was the one on the inside of the crowd and he had the worst heart of anyone, while Othello was on the outside of the crowd and possessed the best heart of anyone.\nThroughout these stories, it is right to say that each of these authors wrote against what the rest of their countries were doing wrong at that time. They are now being praised for being on the outside of what is considered right.", "label": "No"}

{"text": "Army officials at Camp Edwards believed they were being eco-friendly when they started using a \"green bullet\" that contains no lead — a move meant to prevent polluting an aquifer beneath the base.\nBut six years later, after a million rounds have been fired at the base's shooting ranges, new information suggests the green bullets may not be much better for the environment than the lead ones.\n\"It's frustrating,\" Col. William FitzPatrick of the National Guard's Environmental Readiness Center said Thursday. \"You're doing what you think are the right things. As science evolves, you wonder, 'Am I in front of the curve, or behind?\"'\nThe green bullets are made of nylon and tungsten, a metal that supposedly does not seep into ground as quickly as lead. That's important because the aquifer below the base supplies upper Cape Cod with drinking water.\nBut conventional wisdom about tungsten has been challenged by tests done in recent years at the Stevens Institute of Technology in Hoboken, N.J.\nLab tests there found in 2002 that tungsten was not insoluble and that it could travel through soil under certain conditions.

{"text": "Our most pleasurable hobbies are often some of the most expensive--this is especially true for those who are fortunate enough to own their own aircraft. Between hangar fees, fuel, and general maintenance, the costs can reach into the tens of thousands of dollars at years' end--and many look to find ways to save money. This leads to one of the most common questions we hear at Aviation Oil Outlet: Can you substitute automotive engine oil for aviation oil?\nThe short answer is no.\nThe differences between automotive and aircraft engines\nAutomotive engines are water cooled, while most aircraft engines are air cooled to keep the overall aircraft weight down. An air-cooled engine depends on the oil to carry heat away from the cylinders, to the cylinder head, and/or out to an oil cooler to help manage the heat. There can be a 300-degree temperature difference from the oil-cooled cylinder head to the cylinder base in an aircraft engine. This is why aircraft engines have to have large clearances: they allow the metal within the cylinder to become distorted. The larger clearances will, by design, allow oil to pass through the cylinder and be burned.\nWater-cooled engines, on the other hand, carry away the heat using a coolant system. This allows for much better temperature regulation and tighter tolerances within the engine. Tighter tolerances mean the engine oil is less likely to burn. The oil used in this type of engine does aid in cooling the engine by carrying away heat, but its primary function is to lubricate.\nAir-cooled aircraft engines are also prone to what is called \"shock cooling,\" which happens when an aircraft is descending from cruising altitude on approach to land. The aircraft is throttled back, producing less heat from the engine, but gaining airspeed, causing the engine to cool down very quickly. Rapid reduction in temperature can cause cylinder heads to crack, but by using the above-mentioned oil cooled cylinder heads, this problem has been reduced dramatically. The oil still passing through the cylinder head remains warm, slowing the rate of temperature decrease within the head.\nSo now that we know what the oil's primary roles are in these two engine types we can now discuss the difference in the oil itself.\nAutomotive vs. Aircraft Oil\nAircraft engines were designed before ashless dispersants were being added to the oil, and little has changed since. Ashless dispersants help prevent the formation of metallic ash and disperse contaminants so they are suspended in the oil, preventing them from clumping together and forming sludge. These contaminants are then passed through the oil filter and removed from the oil. The benefits of using ashless dispersants were recognized first in automotive engine oils and were quickly adopted for aviation use.\nThe main difference in aircraft engine oil and automotive engine oil is the additives. The great divide between automotive and aviation oil occurred with the addition of zinc anti-wear and detergents containing metal: these metal containing additives did not bode well in the high-heat environment of an air-cooled piston engine. As mentioned above, these type of engines burn a large amount of oil, and any detergents containing metals and anti-wear compounds like zinc can form metallic ash deposits in the combustion chamber. This can cause pre- ignition within the chamber and actually burn holes in the tops of pistons...the results would be catastrophic to the engine. This is not something you want to happen while cruising along at an altitude of 15,000 feet. This is the main reason why aviation oils as we know them today remain ashless.\nWhile certain additives have been found to be extremely beneficial in automotive engine oils, such as zinc for antiwear, they should not be used in aviation oil. There are specific non-ash-containing additives designed specifically for use in aviation oil; while the purpose of the additive is the same, the chemical makeup is entirely different.\nUnfortunately, aviation lubricant additives can be up to 10 times higher in cost than traditional metal-containing automotive additives, which is why the price of aviation oil is, for the most part, more expensive than passenger car motor oil.\nAlthough the difference in price might tempt you to save some money maintaining your aircraft, any potential savings do not outweigh the potentially catastrophic costs. If you're looking to save some money, do yourself a favor and avoid cutting corners: rent out your aircraft when you are not enjoying it or get rid of the hangar and tie it down on the ramp. Either option is a much cheaper alternative than cutting corners on correct maintenance.", "label": "No"}
{"text": "Development of intuitive rules: Evaluating the application of the dual-system framework to understanding children’s intuitive reasoning\n935 - 953\nMetadataShow full item record\nTheories of adult reasoning propose that reasoning consists of two functionally distinct systems that operate under entirely different mechanisms. This theoretical framework has been used to account for a wide range of phenomena, which now encompasses developmental research on reasoning and problem solving. We begin this review by contrasting three main dual-system theories of adult reasoning (Evans & Over, 1996; Sloman, 1996; Stanovich & West, 2000) with a well-established developmental account that also incorporates a dual-system framework (Brainerd & Reyna, 2001). We use developmental studies of the formation and application of intuitive rules in science and mathematics to evaluate the claims that these theories make. Overall, the evidence reviewed suggests that what is crucial to understanding how children reason is the saliency of the features that are presented within a task. By highlighting the importance of saliency as a way of understanding reasoning, we aim to provide clarity concerning the benefits and limitations of adopting a dual-system framework to account for evidence from developmental studies of intuitive reasoning.\nAuthorsOsman, M; Stavy, MOR\n- Psychology", "label": "No"}
{"text": "Clemens said, “History never repeats itself, but it does often rhyme.” It may also have meter. One century ago there was a rhythmic beat of discontent in Germany following the surprise announcement of surrender on the Western Front.\nPeople were shocked. They were totally unprepared for that news. German generals had known for most of 1918 that the war was lost. Soldiers were being overtaken in the trenches by an influenza that was horribly lethal and easily spread in the wretched conditions of the battlefield. Nonetheless, the bubble of wartime propaganda repelled all contradictory information and fed the populace a steady diet of great victory über alles.\nIn the Wagner opera Götterdämmerung, Siegfried is speared in the back by his enemy Hagen. In post-1918 Germany, the act of a hero stabbed this way was called Dolchstoßlegende. That became the new national narrative, peddled by the same German generals who had spent the previous years inflating minor victories, insisting they were “undefeated in the field,” and repackaged the armistice as treacherous, stab-in-the-back defeatism and diplomatic retreat. The Kaiser was forced to abdicate. Three juggernaut blame games — lack of patriotism and faith in the Aryan bloodline, communists, and global cabals of Jews — were seized upon by patriotic brown-shirted war veterans and right wing fanatics. The Wiemar Republic was so de-legitimized by the viral stab-in-the-back myth that the 1933 burning of the Reichstag and ascent of Hitler were virtually assured.\nWe should remember that the Reichstag fire was not the first attempt at power by German radical nationalists. The History Channel recalled:\nBy November 1923, Hitler and his associates had concocted a plot to seize power of the Bavarian state government (and thereby launch a larger revolution against the Weimar Republic) by kidnapping Gustav von Kahr (1862–1934), the state commissioner of Bavaria, and two other conservative politicians. Hitler’s plan involved using Erich Ludendorff (1865–1937), the right-wing World War I general, as a figurehead to lead a march on Berlin to overthrow the Weimar Republic. Hitler’s proposed putsch was inspired by the Italian dictator Benito Mussolini (1883–1945), whose march on Rome in October 1922 had been successful in ousting the liberal Italian government.\nHearing that von Kahr was scheduled to address a large crowd in the Bürgerbräukeller, one of the biggest beer halls in Munich, on November 8, 1923, Hitler took hundreds of his followers and surrounded the hall that evening. The Nazi Party leader and about 20 of his associates burst into the hall, and Hitler fired a shot into the ceiling and declared a “national revolution.”\nLudendorff attempted to salvage the situation by calling on Hitler’s followers for a spontaneous march on the city center. He led about 2,500–3,000 supporters in the direction of the Bavarian Defense Ministry. On their way, the marchers were blocked by a group of state police officers. The two groups exchanged fire, and four police officers were killed along with 16 Nazis. Hitler suffered a dislocated shoulder when he fell to the ground. He crawled along the pavement and was taken away in a waiting car, leaving his comrades behind.\nIn November 2018, marking the 100th anniversary of Armistice Day, IMF Chair Christine Lagarde noted striking similarities to our times:\nThen, as now, rising inequality and the uneven gains from technological change and globalization contributed to a backlash. In the run-up to the war countries responded by scrambling for national advantage, forsaking the idea of mutual cooperation in favor of zero-sum dominance. The result was catastrophe — the full weight of modern technology deployed toward carnage and destruction…. As John Maynard Keynes — one of the IMF’s founding fathers — wrote in response to the Versailles Treaty, the insistence on imposing financial ruin on Germany would eventually lead to disaster. He was entirely correct.\nWhether the Capitol Riot of 2021 is to be a turning point or a prelude may well depend on the willingness of the Senate to affirm Articles of Impeachment against the now US President, even if he is no longer sitting by the time they try the matter. If they fail to bar him from holding public office in the future, no one can say for sure that his 74 million voters and 80 million Twitter followers could not be stirred to action once more, and rather than admit they had been deceived about the China virus, the federal bureaucratic swamp, fake news and all the rest, believe they had been stabbed in the back by Satan-worshiping pizzagate pedophile elites disguised as a political party, who with bankers and blacks have control of the Deep State.\nRight now that could go either way.\nAs the world confronts the pandemic and emerges into recovery, there is growing recognition that the recovery must be a pathway to a new carbon economy, one that goes beyond zero emissions and runs the industrial carbon cycle backwards — taking CO2 from the atmosphere and ocean, turning it into coal and oil, and burying it in the ground. The triple bottom line of this new economy is antifragility, regeneration, and resilience.\nHelp me get my blog posted every week.

{"text": "Vinyl Chloride In Cigarettes\nVinyl chloride is one of the many harmful chemicals found in cigarette smoke. Sometimes known as chloroethene, vinyl chloride is a colourless, flammable gas.\nVinyl chloride does not occur naturally, instead it is a man made substance that is used in manufacturing to produce the polymer polyvinyl chloride, or PVC. PVC is one of the most common synthetic plastics in the world and is used to make pipes, doors, windows and non-food packaging.\nA number of health risks have been linked to vinyl chloride exposure, including liver and bone damage. Vinyl chloride has also been classified by the International Agency for Research on Cancer as a Group 1 carcinogen. This means that exposure to vinyl chloride has been proven to cause cancer in humans.\nVinyl chloride is used in the manufacture of cigarette filters. Studies have shown that low levels of vinyl chloride are present in both firsthand and secondhand cigarette smoke.\nVinyl Chloride Exposure\nVinyl chloride in cigarette smoke is just one of the ways that we are exposed to vinyl chloride in our day to day lives. Inhalation is the most common way that vinyl chloride enters the body, so breathing contaminated air is the main source of this toxic chemical. Vinyl chloride can also be ingested from contaminated water sources, but this is far less common than inhalation.\nThere are generally very low levels of vinyl chloride in the air around us, but these levels can rise dramatically in certain locations. Factories where plastics are produced are one of the biggest sources along with landfill sites where hazardous waste from plastic production is disposed of.\nAs you’ve probably already guessed, cigarettes are the most obvious way that we’re exposed to vinyl chloride, unless you work in a plastics factory or live near an industrial waste landfill.\nVinyl Chloride in Cigarettes\nThe vinyl chloride found in cigarette smoke is actually at low levels, less than thirty nanograms per cigarette. The vinyl chloride is used to make cigarette filters and as smoke passes through the filter it picks up small amounts of vinyl chloride.\nBut the health risks associated with vinyl chloride are still a problem even at low levels. Research has shown that long term exposure to low levels of vinyl chloride increases the risk of developing cancer as well as organ damage.\nCancer And Other Risks\nThere are a number of different factors that affect how dangerous exposure to vinyl chloride can be to our health. Some of these are obvious, like the level of vinyl chloride we’re exposed to and the duration of the exposure, but some might be less obvious.\nVinyl chloride is a gas at room temperatures and inhalation is both the most common form of exposure and the most dangerous. The amount of vinyl chloride found in water and food is at extremely low levels and this harmful chemical is absorbed rapidly into the body through the lungs. Vinyl chloride can also be absorbed through the skin.\nLike other toxic chemicals, the age and health of the person exposed as well as what other chemicals they’re exposed to are also factors in how quickly it can cause health problems. Younger and healthier bodies will be able to get rid of vinyl chloride faster and will be damaged less quickly, but this damage can still build up over time. Smoking increases the risk of health problems because cigarette smoke contains a large number of harmful chemicals that the body has to deal with.\nAfter being absorbed into the bloodstream through the lungs, vinyl chloride is carried to different organs around the body. The liver and kidneys end up with the highest concentrations, followed by the lungs and spleen.\nVinyl chloride is mostly processed by the liver and removed from the body in urine. When processing vinyl chloride, the liver produces a variety of substances which linger, reacting with other chemicals in our bodies and causing further health problems.\nLow levels of exposure to vinyl chloride can cause flu like symptoms including, headaches, dizziness, nausea and drowsiness. Over time exposure can also damage the central nervous system and lead to depression and cardiac arrhythmia.\nExposure to vinyl chloride in cigarette smoke can also cause irritation to the eyes, throat and lungs. And studies of the effect of vinyl chloride on animals have shown that long term exposure can reduce sperm count and mobility.\nExposure to higher levels of vinyl chloride as well as long term exposure to this toxic chemical can cause organ damage, neurological problems and cancer.\nResearch has shown that high levels of vinyl chloride in the body can damage the liver, lungs and kidneys as well as weakening the heart and inhibiting blood clotting. In industrial environments where exposure to vinyl chloride is at its highest, workers have developed nerve damage as well as neurological disorders.\nVinyl chloride has been classified as a Group 1 carcinogen by the International Agency for Research on Cancer. This means that there is sufficient evidence to prove that exposure to vinyl chloride can cause cancer in humans.\nThere are a number of cancers associated with vinyl chloride exposure including, liver, brain and lung cancer as well as lymphoma and leukaemia. Long term exposure has also been linked with cancers of the blood a well as rare forms of liver cancer.\nWhat It All Comes Down To\nWhile it may only be present at low levels, vinyl chloride can cause serious health problems over time, including cancer, organ damage and even death. Reducing our exposure to this toxic chemical helps reduce our risk of developing health problems.\nVinyl chloride is just one of a huge number of harmful chemicals found in cigarette smoke. On their own these chemicals can all cause damage to our bodies and together they are more dangerous as our bodies can only process so much toxic chemical at a time. Quitting smoking is a great way to reduce our exposure to vinyl chloride as well as these other dangerous chemicals.", "label": "No"}

{"text": "Lilac bushes (Syringa vulgaris) are low-maintenance shrubs prized for their fragrant purple, pink or white blossoms. These shrubs or small trees thrive in U.S. Department of Agriculture plant hardiness zones 3 through 9, depending on the variety. Read on for information about how to harvest lilac seeds and lilac seed propagation.\nDo Lilac Bushes Have Berries?\nIf you ask: “Do lilac bushes have berries,” the answer is no. Lilac bushes do not produce berries. However, they do produce seeds.\nGrowing Lilac Seeds\nLilacs produce seeds in seed heads. Lilac bushes can be propagated from those seeds. The seed heads form after the flowers finish blooming. They are brown, large and not very ornamental.\nYou will not get seed heads the first year you plant your lilacs, nor, probably, the second. The lilac bushes do not bloom immediately after they are established. It usually takes at least three years before you get blooms on your lilacs.\nOnce your lilac bush starts flowering, your plant will start producing lilac seed pods that, in turn, start growing lilac seeds. If you are thinking of growing these bushes from lilac seed propagation, you will have to wait until your bush produces seed pods.\nHow to Harvest Lilac Seeds\nIf you want to grow additional lilac plants, collecting and storing seeds is an efficient and inexpensive alternative. But first you have to learn how to harvest lilac seeds.\nIf you want to plant seeds, your best bet is to handpick seeds from the best lilac blooms. Selecting lilac seed pods from the most attractive flowers ensure healthier and more beautiful plants.\nLilac bushes generally bloom in springtime for several weeks. Once the flowers are wilted, the lilacs produce clusters of brown, nut-like fruit. This fruit also dries in time and splits open to reveal the lilac seed pods within.\nThe basic procedure for how to harvest lilac seeds is simple. You pull seeds from the dried lilac seed pods after the flower blooms have dried on the bush. You can store the seeds until you are ready to plant them.\nLilac Seed Propagation\nThe lilac seeds sprout quickly, but before you rely too heavily on lilac seed propagation, check and see if your lilac is a hybrid. Plants grown from hybrid seeds rarely grow true to the parent plant. Since most lilacs are hybrids, lilac seed propagation can often be disappointing. If this is the case, perhaps growing lilac cuttings would prove more effective.", "label": "No"}

{"text": "What is Acne Fulminans?\nAcne fulminans is an advanced and severe acne condition. It develops most frequently from advanced cases of acne conglobata as a side effect of acne conglobata’s treatment options. It is characterized by its spread to other systems of the body beyond the skin, causing severe inflammation of joints and the swelling of the lymph nodes. It frequently culminates in painful open sores on the torso, ignoring the areas acne most usually frequents on the face, chest and back.\nAcne conglobata may not always be linked to cases of acne fulminans. Acne fulminans may occur as a result of steroid reactions, as well, or spontaneously. As consequence, it can also be regarded as an independent chronic acne condition.\nWho gets Acne Fulminans?\nAcne fulminans is a derivative of acne conglobata. Individuals that have not suffered acne conglobata are far less likely to develop acne fulminans, as acne fulminans primarily develops from a reaction to acne conglobata treatment. That said, acne fulminans may afflict anyone. It may be more likely to occur in individuals that have received steroids for treatment or abused them for other purposes, but the link between these things is not fully understood. There is no apparent genetic link that makes acne fulminans more likely.\nWhat causes Acne Fulminans?\nCases of acne fulminans most frequently culminate from a reaction to treitonin being used to treat a case of acne conglobata. Acne fulminans may also culminate from the use of prescribed steroids for treatment or the abuse of steroids for other purposes, although this is not yet clearly understood. Acne fulminans may develop from acne conglobata without an allergic reaction to treatment beforehand, and it may also occur spontaneously, originating as an independent acne condition.\nWhat does Acne Fulminans cause?\nAcne fulminans causes the extreme swelling of the joints and lymph nodes, frequently making hospitalization and protracted care necessary for recovery. The swelling of the joints is very painful and limits mobility when it does not completely restrict mobility. The swelling of the lymph nodes, additionally, can cause rigidity of the neck, resulting in extreme discomfort and labored breathing. In later stages, the open sores on the torso are very likely to scar, and their nature (open, oozing pustules, as opposed to the enclosed blemishes more commonly found in acne) make them far more prone to infection. There is also a risk that clothes and sheets will be stained.\nThe restriction of limbs may result, over an extended period of time, in the loss of muscle or bone mass. Additionally, the restriction of breathing that may be caused by the swelling of lymph nodes can slowly cripple other internal organs. The pain caused by acne fulminans can be quite persistent and quite debilitating, helping to emphasize its classification as a serious disorder.\nHow serious is Acne Fulminans?\nAcne fulminans is a very serious medical condition that requires immediate intervention if extended hospitalization is to be avoided. It can restrict the movement of the limbs and neck as well as make breathing very difficult, which can result in innumerable secondary complications. Said complications include the loss of muscle mass and depression of organ systems due to minor, persistent hypoxia. The severe discomfort inflicted by acne fulminans is frequently quite crippling, and will generally leave the afflicted unable to work; the open sores pose an extreme sanitation hazard in its more advanced stages even if the afflicted manages to remain mobile and at work in spite of their condition. While acne fulminans is not contagious, other blood and fluid-borne ailments are, making such sores untenable in any workplace, regardless of industry, thus making acne fulminans more than just a personal risk. Altogether, it is not an ailment to be taken lightly.\nWhat does Acne Fulminans treatment look like?\nAcne fulminans treatment involves careful application of steroids. There is no over-the-counter solution to alleviate the symptoms of acne fulminans; it must be handled in all capacities by a medical professional. The anti-inflammatory effects of the steroids generally alleviates the discomfort to some extent, and the immuno-suppressive effects temper the spread of the ailment. This treatment is spread over an extended period of time, and there is no fast solution. Laser treatment may be necessary to eliminate granulated tissue in advanced cases of acne fulminans.\nHow do I know if I have Acne Fulminans?\nThe symptoms of acne fulminans are distinct; while it frequently stems from cases of acne conglobata, it does independently arise as well. Self-diagnosis is nearly impossible, as many different conditions may cause similar symptoms, but the signs of acne fulminans are equivalent to its symptoms: stiffness of the joints and swelling of lymph nodes coinciding with bad acne breakouts. Any ailment causing the swelling of the lymph nodes should be brought before a medical professional as soon as possible.\nWhat is the Recommended Acne Treatment?\nThere are many treatments available for acne of all types. However, in our experience, the most effective is Dermasil for Acne. Dermasil for Acne is a unique treatment option that approaches the problem of acne from a different angle, and can effectively supplement all other forms of treatment, or be used on its own.", "label": "No"}

{"text": "What are hemorrhoids?\nHemorrhoids, commonly known by the layman as piles, are when the veins in the lower rectum and anus swell and dilate. These dilated veins may bulge out of the anus and get irritated when you pass stool. It is a very common condition affecting about 50% of adults by the age of 50. 75% of people will develop hemorrhoids at some point in their lives.\nHemorrhoids are one of the most common causes of rectal bleeding. They are not dangerous but can be, although rarely. Hemorrhoids can be classified into two types: internal or external. In internal hemorrhoids, the dilated veins are located within the anus or rectum whereas in external hemorrhoids, the dilated veins develop outside of the anus or rectum.\nHemorrhoids are not something nice to have. They are itchy, painful, and irritating and make it hard to sit. Luckily, hemorrhoids are a treatable condition.\nDo hemorrhoids go away?\nIf your hemorrhoids are small, the symptoms may clear up on its own without any treatment. You will only need to make some changes in your diet and lifestyle.\nIn the severe form of hemorrhoids, they become so big that they pop out of the anus. These are called prolapsed hemorrhoids. This form of hemorrhoids requires treatment and may take a longer time to heal. Pregnant women are at a higher risk of developing hemorrhoids. The reason for this is that the enlarging abdomen increases the pressure inside their abdomen, especially during the last three months of their pregnancy. As a result the veins in the lower rectum and anus dilate, and this leads to hemorrhoids.. The hormonal changes during pregnancy contribute to this. So if you develop hemorrhoids during pregnancy, the symptoms may continue as long as the abdominal pressure is high and will only stop after you give birth to your baby.\nSo do hemorrhoids go away? Yes, they can and do, but how long they take in each case depends on the severity of the condition. If you want to get rid of them faster, you have to treat them sooner. If they are left untreated, they will get worse over time, increasing the time they will take to heal.\nHow long do hemorrhoids last?\nOne cannot say definitely for how long hemorrhoids may last, because sometimes, the hemorrhoids may not actually go away without surgery. You never know what will happen. However, most people will feel better after about 2 weeks. The duration of the hemorrhoids depends on the various factors that affect healing.\nIf the external or internal hemorrhoid is small , it may take only up to about 7 days to heal. However, severe internal hemorrhoids, which enlarge and protrude out of the anus, may require at least 2 months to heal completely. A thrombosed hemorrhoid would need more time to heal--at least about 3 months.\nIf you have developed hemorrhoids for the first time, the time it will take for you to heal will be much shorter than for a person who has had several episodes of hemorrhoids in the past. People who have had recurrent episodes of hemorrhoids will take at least 2 weeks or more to completely recover.\nThe duration it takes for hemorrhoids to heal also depends on the underlying primary cause that led to the development of hemorrhoids in the first place. For example, if you developed hemorrhoids due to pregnancy, then the hemorrhoids may persist until the pregnancy is completed or terminated and there is no pressure being applied on the veins.\nWhat is an external hemorrhoid?\nDilated veins that develop outside of the anus or rectum are referred to as external hemorrhoids. They are found beneath the skin that surrounds the anus. This type of hemorrhoids is more painful than those that develop internally because there are many nerves that are sensitive to pain in the skin outside the anus. So they will hurt really bad and may even lead to bleeding.\nThere are several reasons why external hemorrhoids develop, but the most common cause of hemorrhoids is straining while passing stool. This is usually due to severe cases of constipation. When you strain, blood moves in and out of the lower rectum and anus and leads to the accumulation of blood and enlargement of the blood vessels in that location. Thus, dilated veins result beneath the skin outside of the anus. Another common cause of external hemorrhoids is pregnancy. Because of the enlarging gravid uterus applying pressure on these veins, pregnant women have a higher risk of developing hemorrhoids.\nAn external hemorrhoid may last from a few days to a couple of weeks. However, the signs and symptoms of hemorrhoids will take about one week to disappear. If external hemorrhoids do not go away within a week or so, then you may require surgical intervention.\nWhat is an internal hemorrhoid?\nInternal hemorrhoids lie inside the rectum, and therefore, they are not seen or felt. Because the inside of the rectum does not have many pain-sensitive nerves, internal hemorrhoids do not hurt as much as external hemorrhoids. Bleeding may be the only sign indicating that you have hemorrhoids. The amount of bleeding will vary from one person to another. While some may have only mild spotting, others may develop continuous profuse bleeding. However, with time, internal hemorrhoids can get worse and produce those typical hemorrhoidal symptoms that are really hard to ignore.\nAs the internal hemorrhoids progress, they may protrude out of the anus. This condition is known as prolapsed hemorrhoids. This can be similar to an external hemorrhoid in that they may produce symptoms like swelling and itchiness. Because prolapsed hemorrhoids and external hemorrhoids look similar, it is really hard to tell which is which without a professional doctor’s diagnosis.\nDo hemorrhoids bleed?\nYes, they do. Bleeding from the rectum is one of the most common symptoms of hemorrhoids. However, bleeding while passing stool cannot lead to a definite diagnosis of hemorrhoids, because there are other conditions that may cause bleeding while passing stool. Bleeding while passing stool is a major cause for concern, and therefore patients who have this symptom should seek medical advice as soon as possible.\nThe commonest cause for bleeding while passing stool is hemorrhoids. However, it can be seen in life-threatening conditions like anal and colorectal cancers. This is why you should seek medical advice if you notice blood in your stool.\nBleeding in hemorrhoids can be different from person to person. The amount of bleeding will vary. While some may have only mild spotting, others may develop continuous profuse bleeding.\nHow do you know you have hemorrhoids?\nYou can tell that you probably have hemorrhoids if you have the following signs and symptoms.\nBleeding while passing stool – If you experience bleeding every time you pass stool, or if you notice blood after passing stool, it could be a sign of hemorrhoids. The blood is usually bright red in color, but the amount of blood will vary from one person to another. Some may only have mild spotting whereas the others may have continuous bleeding through the anus.\nItching around the anus – Itchiness is generally seen in both types of hemorrhoids (internal and external), but it is more prominent with external hemorrhoids. Itching causes great discomfort in the anal region.\nFeeling lumps around the anus – This is typically noticed with external hemorrhoids and prolapsed internal hemorrhoids. These lumps are usually painful to the touch. They are usually pink in color, but sometimes, these lumps can give a purple or bluish discoloration indicating that there has been thrombosis of your hemorrhoids. If you have thrombosed hemorrhoids, they will be a lot more painful and uncomfortable.\nHow do you prevent hemorrhoids?\nThere are many ways you can avoid hemorrhoids. Most of them are just making changes to your lifestyle and diet, things you can do immediately.\nEat more fiber-rich food such as fruits like mangoes, apples, pears, and raw strawberries, and vegetables like broccoli, peas, Brussels sprouts, black beans, lentils, and split peas. Doing this will increase the amount of soluble fiber in your diet. Fiber helps food material to move through your digestive system and softens and bulks up stool, thus helping patients with constipation. Fiber also helps you have more regular bowel movements.\nIt is also important that you drink plenty of water every day. This will help maintain consistent bowel movements.\nIncrease your physical activity\nDo not spend your sitting and lying down on the bed the whole day. Move around and exercise more. This is an important and very helpful tip to avoid hemorrhoids. Also, obesity increases your risk of developing hemorrhoids. therefore, maintain a healthy body weight. This way, you can avoid the development of hemorrhoids.\nDo not strain\nIf you are constipated, do not strain to pass the stool. This will only add more pressure to the dilated veins in the anus and cause them to swell even more. Therefore, relax and allow the stool to pass naturally. You can also apply some petroleum jelly to the anal sphincter to make the passage of stool smoother, with less discomfort and irritation.\nWhat is a thrombosed hemorrhoid?\nA thrombosed external hemorrhoid is when blood pools within the engorged veins and leads to the formation of a thrombus, also known as a blood clot under the skin. This is a really painful condition that results in a firm lump in the anal region. Due to thrombosis, the lump develops a bluish or purplish discoloration.\nYou may be at a higher risk of developing a thrombosed external hemorrhoid, if you have recently had an episode of constipation or a traumatic vaginal delivery. It is quite a common condition experienced by many people.\nThe symptoms can be reduced by conservative management, which includes the use of stool softeners, increased intake of fiber in the diet, increased consumption of fluids, topical medications, and warm baths. However, surgical intervention is the only thing that can put a complete stop to it. In surgery, the entire thrombosed external hemorrhoid will be excised. This has lower recurrence rates as well as lower complication rates. Not only that, but patient satisfaction and acceptance are high as well.\nWhat does hemorrhoid cream do?\nThe pain and itchiness of external hemorrhoids can be relieved with the use of creams or ointments. One cream used for hemorrhoids is 1% hydrocortisone, which should be applied on the outer surface of the skin of the hemorrhoid (not inside). Hydrocortisone is a steroid drug, and therefore should not be used for more than a week unless your doctor tells you to.\nYou can also apply some petroleum jelly to the area so your sphincter opens more easily.", "label": "No"}
{"text": "If you ask someone if they’ve cleaned their teeth today, chances are the answer you’ll get is “yes, of course.”\nIf you ask if they did yesterday as well, you can probably expect the same response.\nTeeth and gum health is important, so spending a few minutes a day in front of the bathroom sink to keep your mouth clean doesn’t seem like a big deal.\nBut how many people exercise every day? Isn’t your overall health just as important?\nAndrew Simmons, the founder of Vision Personal Training, wants people to start thinking about exercise more as a daily habit, and not a burden.\n“I’d like exercise to go onto everyone’s toothbrush list,” Simmons told Business Insider.\n“If you’re prepared to spend a few minutes every day to look after your mouth, why are you not prepared to spend a few minutes every day to look after the health of your brain, your heart and your body?”\nIt’s a fair point, and something many Australians are avoiding.\nData from the Department of Health shows nearly 30% of Australian adults (aged 18-64) engage in low levels of regular physical activity (150 minutes in the last week) and almost 15% were completely inactive.\nPhysical inactivity, and the health impacts of it, are a huge burden on the national health system due to the increased risk for chronic disease.\nThe Department of Health (DOH) recommends adults undertake 30 minutes of moderate intensity physical activity per day, but it doesn’t even need to be that much to have significant health benefits – both for the people and the system.\nAccording to the DOH, “if all Australians did an extra 15 minutes of brisk walking for at least five days each week, this would reduce disease burden due to physical inactivity in the population by approximately 13%.\n“By increasing this to 30 minutes, the burden of disease attributed to physical inactivity could be reduced by 26%.”\nWhen looking at specific illnesses, research has attributed 6.4% of cancers to physical inactivity, which is preceded only by tobacco, high body mass and “dietary risk factors” — which you could argue is all about fitness too.\nSimmons said that often one of the greatest barriers for people who need to improve their health is knowing how to get started, and having the courage to ask for help.\nThe founder built Vision Personal Training on the simple premise that walking into a gym shouldn’t be intimidating, and support systems should be as robust as possible for people at any fitness level.\n“In the early part of my career I tried to turn this training into rocket science, and in order to fuel your ego you try to make things too complicated, to show that your way is the best way,” Simmons said.\n“But at the end of the day, I realised that the genius is turning the complicated into the simple.”\n“Ultimately with most people in our society now, if all they do is eat better and move more they’ll get results.”\nSimmons thinks the fitness industry also needs to better accommodate for underconditioned, injured or less able people.\n“We’re very good as an industry at catering for the fit, all of the new trends and brands popping up tend to only appeal to avid exercisers,” he said.\n“For [Vision], our target market is the unconditioned individuals that can come into a small, friendly studio where everyone knows your name.”\nHe added that all it takes is that first step, and after that every small success counts.\n“It takes the average person years and years of bad eating and no exercise to put on that belly, so they can’t expect to see wholesale changes overnight.\n“They need to be fair on themselves, have patience and not expect quick results.”\nUltimately, Simmons would like to see an Australia where exercising is just part of the many daily habits we have to stay healthy — even if it’s 20 minutes a day.\n“Unfortunately, we have so many silly old analogies like ‘go hard or go home’, but too many people go home because they think that they need to do a heap of exercise to make it count.\n“Make small changes so that they become habits.”\n*This journalist was invited to do the Vision 9 Week Transformation Program compliments of Vision.\nNOW WATCH: Executive Life videos\nBusiness Insider Emails & Alerts\nSite highlights each day to your inbox.", "label": "No"}
{"text": "|Known for||influenced the Bhakti movement|\nKabīr (also Kabīra) (Hindi: कबीर, Punjabi: ਕਬੀਰ, Urdu: کبير) (1440–1518) was a mystic poet and saint of India, whose writings have greatly influenced theBhakti movement. The name Kabir comes from Arabic al-Kabīr which means 'The Great' - the 37th name of God in Islam.\nApart from having an important influence on Sikhism, Kabir's legacy is today carried forward by the Kabir Panth (\"Path of Kabir\"), a religious community that recognizes him as its founder and is one of the Sant Mat sects. Its members, known as Kabir panthis, are estimated to be around 9,600,000. They are spread over north and central India, as well as dispersed with the Indian diaspora across the world, up from 843,171 in the 1901 census. His writings include Bijak, Sakhi Granth, Kabir Granthawali and Anurag Sagar.\nThe story is told that on one particular day of the year, anyone can become a disciple by having a master speak the name of God over him. It is common for those who live near the Ganges to take their morning bath there in the sacred waters. The bhakti saint Ramananda was in the habit of arising before dawn to take his bath. On this special day too, he awoke before dawn and found his way down to the steps of the Ganges. As he was walking down the steps to the waters, a little hand reached out and grabbed the saint's big toe. Ramananda was taken by surprise, and he involuntarily called out the name of God. Looking down, he saw in the early morning light the hand of the young Kabir. After his bath, he noticed that on the back of the little one's hand was written in Arabic the name Kabīr. He adopted him as son and disciple and brought him back to his ashram, much to the consternation of his Hindu students, some of whom left in protest.Not much is known of Kabir's birth parents, but it is known that he was brought up in a family of Muslim weavers. He was found by a Muslim weaver named Niru and his wife, Nima, in Lehartara, situated in Varanasi. They adopted the boy and taught him the weaver's trade.\nNot much is known about what sort of spiritual training Kabir may have received. He did not become a sadhu, nor did he ever abandon worldly life. Kabir chose instead to live the balanced life of a householder and mystic, a tradesman and contemplative.\nKabir's family is believed to have lived in the locality of Kabir Chaura in Varanasi. Kabīr maṭha (कबीरमठ), a maṭha located in the back alleys of Kabir Chaura, celebrates his life and times. Accompanying the property is a house named Nīrūṭīlā (नीरू टीला) which houses Niru and Nima's graves. The house also accommodates students and scholars who live there and study Kabir's work.\nKabir was influenced by the prevailing religious mood of his times, such as old Brahmanic Hinduism, Hindu and Buddhist Tantrism, the teachings of Nath yogis and the personal devotionalism of South India mixed with the imageless God of Islam. The influence of these various doctrines is clearly evident in Kabir's verses. Eminent historians like R.C. Majumdar, P.N. Chopra, B.N. Puri and M.N. Das have held that Kabir is the first Indian saint to have harmonised Hinduism and Islam by preaching a universal path which both Hindus and Muslims could tread together. But there are a few critics who contest such claims.\nThe basic religious principles he espoused are simple. According to Kabir, all life is an interplay of two spiritual principles. One is the personal soul (Jivatma) and the other is God (Paramatma). It is Kabir's view that salvation is the process of bringing these two divine principles into union. The incorporation of much of his verse in Sikh scripture, and the fact that Kabir was a predecessor of Guru Nanak, have led some western scholars to mistakenly describe him as a forerunner of Sikhism.\nHis greatest work is the Bijak (the \"Seedling\"), an idea of the fundamental one. This collection of poems elucidates Kabir's universal view of spirituality. Though his vocabulary is replete with Hindu spiritual concepts, such as Brahman, karma and reincarnation, he vehemently opposed dogmas, both in Hinduism and in Islam. HisHindi was a vernacular, straightforward kind, much like his philosophies. He often advocated leaving aside the Qur'an and Vedas and simply following Sahaja path, or the Simple/Natural Way to oneness in God. He believed in the Vedantic concept of atman, but unlike earlier orthodox Vedantins, he spurned the Hindu societal castesystem and murti-poojan (idol worship), showing clear belief in both bhakti and Sufi ideas. The major part of Kabir's work as a bhagat was collected by the fifth Sikhguru, Guru Arjan Dev, and forms a part of the Sikh scripture Guru Granth Sahib.\nKabir composed in a pithy and earthy style, replete with surprise and inventive imagery. His poems resonate with praise for the true guru who reveals the divine through direct experience, and denounce more usual ways of attempting god-union such as chanting, austerities, etc. Kabir, being illiterate, expressed his poems orally in vernacular Hindi, borrowing from various dialects including Avadhi, Braj, and Bhojpuri. His verses often began with some strongly worded insult to get the attention of passers-by. Kabir has enjoyed a revival of popularity over the past half century as arguably the most accessible and understandable of the Indian saints, with a special influence over spiritual traditions such as those of Sant Mat, Garib Das and Radha Soami.\nA considerable body of poetical work has been attributed to Kabir. And while two of his disciples, Bhāgodās and Dharmadās, did write much of it down, \"...there is also much that must have passed, with expected changes and distortions, from mouth to mouth, as part of a well-established oral tradition.\"\nPoems and songs ascribed to Kabir are available today in several dialects, with varying wordings and spellings as befits an oral tradition. Opinions vary on establishing any given poem's authenticity. Despite this, or perhaps because of it, the spirit of this mystic comes alive through a \"unique forcefulness... vigor of thought and rugged terseness of style.\"\nKabir and his followers named his poetic output as ‘bāņīs,’ utterances. These include songs, as above, and couplets, called variously dohe, śalokā (Sanskrit ślokā), or sākhī (Sanskrit sākşī). The latter term, meaning ‘witness,’ best indicates the use that Kabir and his followers envisioned for these poems: “As direct evidence of the Truth, a sākhī is… meant to be memorized… A sākhī is… meant to evoke the highest Truth.” As such, memorizing, reciting, and thus pondering over these utterances constitutes, for Kabir and his followers, a path to spiritual awakening.\nThere are several allusions to Kabir's poetry in mainstream Indian film music. The title song of the Sufi fusion band Indian Ocean's album Jhini is an energetic rendering of Kabir's famous poem \"The intricately woven blanket\", with influences from Indian folk, Sufi traditions and progressive rock.\nDocumentary filmmaker Shabnam Virmani, from the Kabir Project, has produced a series of documentaries and books tracing Kabir's philosophy, music and poetry in present day India and Pakistan. The documentaries feature Indian folk singers such as Prahlad Tipanya, Mukhtiyar Ali and the Pakistani QawwalFareed Ayaz.\nKabir's poetry has appeared prominently in filmmaker Anand Gandhi's films Right Here Right Now and Continuum.", "label": "No"}

{"text": "Artistic education has been lacking for years\nEducation policies have consistently recognized the value of art in society. At least 47 states have arts education mandates and another 48 have art education standards, all thanks to Clinton’s Goals 2000 Educate America Act passed in 1994. This act is what set the ball rolling on the school reform agendas that took place during both the Clinton and Bush eras.\nIn 2001, art was officially included as one of the ten core academic subjects that public schools should teach. This designation effectively qualified arts programs for numerous federal grants. But education policies and mandates are one thing; implementing these policies in the classroom is, of course, a different story.\nArtistic education may not be a priority in certain parts of the world, but its importance cannot be understated. Art may not have the power to solve society’s problems. However, it does have the ability to make society aware of the challenges within it. Teaching art to children while they are still young is also one of the best ways to develop their emotional intelligence and academic achievement.\nIndeed, early involvement in the arts is linked to gains in reading, cognitive ability, verbal fluency, enhanced confidence, self–esteem and improved critical thinking skills. Arts have also been proven to enhance motivation, teamwork, and concentration. The inherent pleasures and stimulation of the art experience typically do more than improve the quality of one’s life.\nArt connects human beings in ways other things cannot; it opens people to new ways of seeing things, thus creating an excellent foundation for people from all walks of life to bond and unite.\nSadly, despite these well-known art facts, its education is not as prevalent as you would think. There is an evident lack of a strong arts program in many public schools.\nOn the flip side, children of the affluent are usually exposed to art education whether or not their schools provide it to them. From paid programs such as toddlers in tutus to family trips to galleries and museums to having vast art collections in their homes, children from low-income homes typically do not have exposure to such excellent opportunities.\nWhen there are art education programs in public schools, it provides kids from financially challenged backgrounds to have a more level playing field with their peers from well-to-do backgrounds. But incorporating art education programs in public schools hasn’t been as easy as it should be.\nArt education has been slipping by the decade due to tight state budgets, a crammed classroom curriculum, and the public sense that art has always been nice. However, it’s never been important enough; not as important as other subjects such as math or the sciences.\nThankfully, this popular unpopular opinion is beginning to change. As mentioned earlier, art education and academic achievement are interlinked. As a result, comprehensive, innovative arts initiatives are starting to become the norm rather than the exception in a growing number of public schools across the country. Many of these initiatives are based on findings in brain and cognitive research that art can and should be used as a tool for learning.\nWith more and more schools working to establish an environment that is rich in arts and culture, as well as ensuring hands-on art instructions, there is hope for the world yet. It is true that most of the existing art initiatives in schools are still at their infant stages, but many are producing some impressive results.\nIn many parts of the country, art education has suffered immensely for so long that it will take decades to undo the massive damage that has been caused. In addition to time, enormous investments will also have to be made to fix the mess. If things are to change, legislators need to make art education a priority in any school reform plans. The states also need to make a more concerted effort to connect more students with the vast cultural resources that we have at our disposal.\nAll schools in the country should offer some type of art instruction and cultural programming. This is the only way that great strides will be made to revitalize arts education. The process of enforcing art education will not be easy. It will require outstanding leadership, innovation, extensive partnerships and collaborations, and support.\nIn many parts of the country, for instance, communities are creating partnerships with their arts and cultural resources to infuse public schools with rich, comprehensive art programs. The point is to develop sustainable programs, not those that come and go with the annual budget or depend on the whims of an administrator.\nIn other parts of the country, though, a coalition of art advocates, educators, business people, and philanthropists are working together to get art programs infiltrated all through the communities, especially low-income ones.\nArt is one of the hardest things to appreciate\nArt is one of the hardest things for people to appreciate, and it affects all levels of society and academic education. Some brilliant and accomplished individuals see no value in art. Why? Because they don’t appreciate it or bother to.\nArt appreciation is something that goes beyond hanging a beautiful painting or visiting a gallery or museum. The truth is that we are surrounded by art all the time; it is everywhere that we look. If people simply opened up their eyes to that fact, then the world would be a much different place.\nSo what exactly is art appreciation? Art appreciation is anything that:\n- Gives you the ability to gain the knowledge to understand art.\n- The willingness to acquire the methods and materials needed for one to discuss art verbally.\n- The knowledge allows one to pick out the movements from ancient art to today’s contemporary art.\nLearning how to appreciate art is a vital cultural foundation needed to enable individuals to critically analyze art, different art forms, and how various cultures use art. For one to appreciate art, they must have the capacity to view it throughout history, paying close attention to the people and the cultures they subscribe to, as well as how art developed through various periods. It is almost impossible to understand art if one does not understand the culture, materials used and the beauty it provides.\nAll individuals are born with the innate ability to create art, yet so few are given the training needed to foster their talent. As we’ve talked about above, art education is not only critical for an individual’s comprehension and development but also their emotional well-being. Art allows people to have diverse points of view while still understanding how people lived in the past. More importantly, art connects the issues that people experience in modern life. The history of the world is the history of art.\nThe great thing about art appreciation is that anyone can appreciate art and because art appreciation is so subjective, there is really no right or wrong way of doing it. Different art forms will appeal to different people; they are supposed to. Art appreciation, on the other hand, allows one to explore various art forms despite what one has already been exposed to.\nWhy is it so important that people learn to appreciate art?\nAppreciating art is vital for various reasons. For instance, art appreciation is one way to understand the history behind a piece of painting or sculpture and the period in which the artwork originated. It is no secret that artists often reflect on the problems that they have faced and the issues surrounding their societies.\nWhen one takes the time to appreciate art, they are essentially placing themselves in the shoes and minds of the artists so that they can better understand how society functioned at that time and how things have changed today. This is the only way one can empathize and relate to the issues that other people face on a deeper emotional and personal level.\nArt is designed to stimulate conversation and spark debates between observers. When people reflect on a piece of art, it allows them to delve further into their own experiences. That’s why one piece of art could mean something entirely different for various observers that come across it. Art appreciation stimulates one’s thoughts and opens up points of view. When people are willing to listen to one another’s perspectives and interpretations of art, it encourages people to have meaningful conversations.\nArt is still largely inaccessible\nThe art world has been struggling for a while now. Buyers and artists alike have remained passive for the last few years, leaving only a small circle of enthusiasts, collectors, galleries, and museum directors to control the agenda. All other parties, including curators and the artists themselves, now play a minor and supportive role, forming the lowest part of the pyramid whose peak has become highly inaccessible.\nArtists hoping for notoriety and success are doomed if they dare break the rules and those that succeed after doing so have become extremely rare. The art market has become almost soulless and totally under the control of private ownership and monetary value. People no longer create art just to create it.\nDespite the wealth of tools available that should make art accessible, such as eCommerce and social media, nothing much has changed in the art scene. Other industries have found ways to take advantage of these resources. However, in art, these tools stay greatly underutilized. Even worse, curators remain in charge of exhibitions while the museums, at best, are only ever interested in counting visitors and profits.\nOnly a few players have control and the public’s opinion usually counts for little to nothing at all since public institutions and popular art events such as biennales are dependent on galleries and collectors for monetary support. For this reason, these galleries and exhibitions only tend to display art that will make donors and supporters happy.\nIn many cases, only a small network of gallerists and collectors maintain authority over what is referred to as good art and what isn’t. It is this small elite circle that determines who, outside of the circle, is worth looking into.\nFor things to change, the public has to be taught about art so that they can start to realize that they do not have to wait on someone else to tell them what good art is or isn’t. The point is to empower the public enough so that they are able decide what is worth seeing and what isn’t.\nPublic art institutions also need to be made more democratic. An art ecosystem must be set up in which artists are allowed to nurture their audiences and vice versa. If this shift can be introduced into the existing ecosystem, the art has a chance of becoming something that isn’t just leveraged for its commercial value but something worth truly learning and preserving. If this happens, we will have built a world where art is created to represent and mirror our interests as evolving human beings.\nNot many people are willing to become artists\nBecause of all these factors discussed above, art is not one of those careers for which people are lining up for. It has become tough to make a living as an artist these days. As a result, talented artists have eventually been forced to seek other reliable sources of income to supplement their artistry. Some artists spend years furthering their education and bettering their skills, only for them to find themselves looking for a steady paycheck in a bid to supplement their artistry.\nArtists looking to make a living off their art often find that they have to put more time and effort into attracting buyers while also building a reputation, which can take its toll. Artists are typically forced to work around showcases, openings in galleries, and other establishments just for an opportunity to display their work.\nFor these reasons and more, many people prefer to pursue other professions that are more sustainable, which has led to a dramatic shortage of new works from new artists. For those artists that manage to succeed, it takes a dedicated lifetime of work and a good measure of luck to reach any loft ambitions of success.\nEveryone can all agree that art is one of the most important components we have in society. Unfortunately, the pandemic-induced school closures have placed the future of arts education in jeopardy. As schools continue to struggle to keep their core subjects going, art programs all over the country are now at risk of being shut down.", "label": "No"}

It has long been suspected that clove may have anticancer effects, too\nSource: The Amazing Healing Powers of Nature, Reader’s Digest\nWhat is clove oil?\nClove oil is a common essential oil that can be purchased in most pharmacies, often in the first aid section. It is used as a local anesthetic for toothaches, as well as to help prevent stomach ulcers. Clove oil has antibacterial, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, as well as possible anticancer activity.\nWhat are commonly referred to as cloves are the dried unopened flower buds of the clove tree; the tree’s buds, stems and leaves are also used to make clove oil. The main component of clove oil, and the compound that carries clove’s characteristic aroma, is eugenol.\nClove oil for tooth pain\nPharmacies sell a range of eugenol-containing products aimed at soothing dental pain. You can also make your own toothache-easing mixture by crushing cloves in a pestle and mortar and adding a little olive oil.\nThese measures are designed to give only temporary relief, however, and it is important to seek professional dental care as soon as possible. Note, too, that clove oil and products containing eugenol can cause irritation in some people and that, in large amounts, clove oil is toxic when taken internally.\nMedical studies and research on clove oil\nSeveral research teams have found that eugenol is potently antibacterial and antioxidant, a fact that accounts for clove’s use as a food preservative.\nClove oil’s effectiveness as a local anesthetic has been investigated in several studies: in a 2006 study at Kuwait University, for example, clove oil worked as well as the synthetic local anesthetic benzocaine at numbing the pain of toothache.\nIn 2011, researchers at the University of Vale do Itaja', Brazil, found that clove enhances the production of mucus in the stomach lining, protecting against stomach ulcers. It is also an expectorant, encouraging the production of mucus in the respiratory system, and so eases coughing.\nClove oil and cancer\nIt has long been suspected that clove may have anticancer effects’and modern science seems to be confirming that. In 2006 researchers at the Chittaranjan National Cancer Institute in India reported that eugenol inhibits the growth of lung cancer tumours in mice, and a 2011study conducted at the IILM Institute, India, found that in the laboratory clove oil caused cancer cells to self-destruct while leaving normal blood cells unscathed.

{"text": "Why Knowledge of Students is Important for Effective Teaching\nAn effective teacher must master the professional skills necessary to deliver a high-quality 21st-century education to their students. In this blog post, I will discuss the importance of knowing the students we teach.\nOne of the cardinal rules of effective teaching is to \"know your students.\" This is because a deep understanding of the individuals we teach is essential to forming positive relationships. According to William Powell and Ochan Kusuma-Powell in their book, How to Teach Now: Five Keys to Personalized Learning in the Global Classroom, point out that building positive relationships with students can do the following: create a psychologically safe environment for every learner; determine each student's readiness for learning; identify multiple access points to the curriculum to increase engagement and success and develop and demonstrate greater emotional intelligence in the classroom. Since the average teacher spends over 1,000 hours with their students in a typical school year, the relationship between teachers and their students is highly consequential.\nDeveloping strong relationships with learners can help teachers build a classroom climate based on trust and mutual respect. This is true of relationships between the teacher and their students and between students and their peers. This psychologically safe atmosphere will allow students to take intellectual risks by removing obstacles such as fear of chastisement or failure. And while there are criticisms of Maslow's hierarchy in that it is based more upon philosophy than scientific evidence, research indicates that strong teacher relationships are associated with short-term and long-term educational growth. This can be seen in student engagement, attendance, higher grades, fewer disruptive behaviors, and lower school dropout rates. Healthy relationships are beneficial to teachers as well. A study from the European Journal of Psychology of Education found that when teachers have strong relationships with their students, they tend to be happier and experience less stress and anxiety in the classroom.\nUnderstanding adolescent development is a critical component of the knowledge of students. Effective teachers understand that adolescence is a time of profound change and presents many challenges to the teacher, learner, and the learning environment. Research indicates that unlike adults who cogitate using the brain's rational part called the prefrontal cortex, teens process information with their amygdala. The amygdala, or \"lizard brain,\" is where emotions are generated. The teenage brain is not fully developed until around twenty-five, when connections between the prefrontal cortex and the amygdala are fully formed. This is why teenagers can be overly emotional and irrational leading to impulsive decisions and behavior. Effective teachers consider their students' developmental needs as they plan and implement learning activities that support their socio-emotional growth. As a child-rearing expert, Dr. Ron Taffel points out, \"Even as kids reach adolescence, they need more than ever for us to watch over them. Adolescence is not about letting go. It's about hanging on during a very bumpy ride.\" Adolescence is about self-discovery and forgoing an individual identity while cultivating membership in various social groups. Teens are trying to make sense of the world and their place in it. They are exploring notions of fairness and justice and should be given opportunities to confront these issues in a supportive and safe environment. They are in pursuit of autonomy, and many will test the limits of authority at home and school.\nThere are brain-based teaching strategies that teachers should use with adolescents. This is important because teens are not little adults, nor are they children. Teachers must engage teens in developmentally appropriate learning strategies specifically designed to address their unique needs. For example, teachers should give simple and straightforward directions and explanations while using multiple models of instruction. Because every student is unique and differs in how they perceive and comprehend information, teachers should provide students with multiple representations to communicate content. Additionally, teachers should help students develop competence in their discipline. Adolescence is an awkward time in which students do not want to feel incompetent or that people are judging them. Teachers can help students develop competence by knowing their students’ strengths and weaknesses and help struggling students by offering extra help or tutoring. Teachers should try to incorporate decision-making into their curriculum as much as possible. Teenagers’ brains are rapidly developing in adolescence, and as a result, their decision-making processes are often flawed. Teachers should help their students evaluate potential solutions and think through consequences. An excellent teaching approach that allows students to think through various decisions and points of view are roleplaying and simulations. For example, in a U.S. history class, students could recreate the constitutional convention and debate the important issues of 1787 including slavery, representation, and federalism. Or students could put Harry Truman on trial for his decision to drop the atomic bomb on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The possibilities are limitless. And roleplay and simulations are an excellent opportunity for students to examine issues from various points of view and consider the pros and cons of historical decisions. A word of caution, however. Be sure that roleplays and simulations don’t expose students to unnecessary trauma by engaging in activities that are hurtful or insensitive, especially for students of color.\nStudents in most schools are grouped into grades by age and not ability. Unfortunately, this process overlooks the fact that students develop and mature at different rates. That is why teachers must provide sufficient supports for developing learners to reach higher levels of understanding. The Zone of Proximal Development (ZPD), first postulated by Russian psychologist Lev Vygotsky, suggests that there are things a learner can do without assistance, and there are things that a learner can do with help from a more knowledgeable person. When students are in the ZPD, they are provided scaffolding or learning support from the teacher or more knowledgeable peer to help them accomplish a task they could not do independently. ZPD is one of the reasons that collaborative learning is so effective, especially when learners of mixed abilities are grouped together. Further, collaborative learning supports socio-emotional learning by developing self-awareness, self-management, responsible decision making, social awareness, and relational skills. All of which are critical skills as students grow and mature.\nKnowledge of students can also mean understanding students' unique skills to include their strengths and weaknesses. Research conducted by the Center for Education Policy and Analysis at Stanford University reveals that knowledge of individual students' skills or KISS is an effective way to increase student achievement for all learners. Teachers who differentiate and target their instruction to meet their students' unique needs have higher academic gains. According to Carol Ann Tomlinson, author, speaker, and differentiated instruction expert, \"differentiation is simply a teacher attending to the learning needs of a particular student or small groups of students, rather than teaching a class as though all individuals in it were basically alike.\"\nThank you for taking the time to read this blog post.

{"text": "It’s not unreasonable to claim that most Malaysians are at least bilingual. We’re constantly exposed to billboards, advertising, and public announcements in more than one language. Being multilingual affords us plenty of advantages including access to various cultural experiences, potential delay of onset Alzheimer’s disease symptoms, and even an enhanced ability to bargain.\nHave you noticed that people (maybe even yourself) will sometimes change the way they talk and even pepper their sentences with non-English words when negotiating prices or ordering at a local hawker stall? We do this because it works. Not all the time and not at every level, but it does. There are several reasons why this is so.\nThe use of a shared language signals more than just familiarity. It also suggests communality between speakers. When fluent speakers of Tamil recognise each other for example, they both also recognise that the other person is more likely to be familiar with Tamil movies, Indian customs, and temple activities.\nBiologists refer to this as ‘kin recognition‘, or the ability of a species to acknowledge and accommodate beings of the same family or tribe. A simple sentence spoken in the right language can trigger this immediate bond and invite the seller to be more helpful to the buyer. Which can then lead to more generosity with regards to discounts or special offers.\nThe linguist Benjamin Lee Whorf claims that each language has its own specific identity. That is to say that the language a person uses can affect the way they think and act. Consider how Malay encourages the use of different first person pronouns depending on the level of familiarity between speakers (saya is more polite than aku for example) where English does not.\nMultilinguals can then sound more polite when addressing themselves in Malay compared to English. This linguistic personality can then be imparted in their message, softening the request from a buyer and making them more likely to acquiesce.\nAppreciation for Effort\nLearning another language, especially if you didn’t grow up exposed to it, takes time and energy. The less likely you are to know a language when you do, the more impressed a native speaker will be once they learn that you know it.\nA native speaker of an obscure dialect or a little-known language will be appreciative of your efforts in studying their language beyond just a “hello” or “thank you” and is more likely to reward your endeavour with some welcome discounts or freebies.\nRemoving Information Asymmetry\nIn trading, the seller always benefits when they know more than the buyer. Some less tactful sellers may even discuss short-changing the customer out loud in a language they assume the customer doesn’t understand.\nRevealing that you do speak the same language as the seller disables this advantage. They may even feel more obliged to ‘come clean’ and offer you some extra goodies so you don’t tell others about their shady shenanigans.\nNow we know that being good hagglers isn’t just the result of being doggedly persistent, it’s also because of our multilingual surroundings. If you can’t yet speak more than one language or know somebody who doesn’t, there’s no better time than now.\nSpeaking of special offers, check out the latest promotions and deals on the similarly titled subsection of our site. Recently there have been some good deals on Yee Sang and fine dining for you to ring in the Chinese New Year with.\nDoes being multilingual help you in your business? How so?

{"text": "To Warn or Not to Warn\nFor decades, mental health professionals have chafed against \"duty to warn\" laws, which require them to notify authorities if their clients threaten others or themselves.\nThese laws can be traced back to a landmark California Supreme Court decision, Tarasoff vs. Regents of the University of California. Tarasoff was a young woman murdered in October 1969 by an unbalanced graduate student who had previously confessed his intentions to his psychologist. In the years since, 43 states have passed so-called \"duty to warn\" laws. Some require mental health professionals to warn the authorities or the threatened party. Others say professionals can warn at their discretion.\nGiving a warning \"may seem like a reasonable response, but from a psychologist's point of view, it is not,\" Edwards says. \"They argue that the whole reason the doctor-patient relationship works is that everything said is confidential.\" According to mental health professionals, such laws make it less likely that potential victims will be protected, because patients will be less likely to divulge violent plans—and that means fewer opportunities for professionals to intervene through counseling.\n\"This debate has been going on for years,\" Edwards says, and determining an answer is not obvious. How can you tally up the number of people who were prevented from murder, or suicide, by a psychologist's warning? That is the goal of the law, after all, to stop these events from happening.\nEdwards came up with a solution: If the mental health professionals were right, there should be an increase in suicides and murders in states after these laws are passed. But you need to be careful to tease out this signal from a sea of other possible contributing factors. For example, suicide rates are higher in the Pacific Northwest due to the gloomy weather and plentiful supply of isolated bridges, Edwards points out.\nMurder rates fluctuate as a factor of policing strategies, drug violence, and a host of other reasons. So Edwards compared statistics from states after they passed duty to warn laws to the data from the same states prior to passing the laws. Then he compared that difference to the numbers from one of the states that have never passed duty to warn laws. Using econometric techniques, \"I'm able to control for a lot,\" Edwards says. \"This allows me to infer something similar to a randomized controlled trial, but with laws and states instead of individuals.\"\nWhat happened? \"I found that the psychologists are right,\" Edwards says. In a paper published in 2013 in The International Review of Law and Economics, \"I found that these laws actually increase suicides among teens, but have no effect on adult suicides,\" he notes.\nIn a separate paper forthcoming at the Journal of Law and Economics, Edwards found that \"homicides increase by anywhere from 5 to 7 percent\" after mandatory duty to warn laws are passed. \"Permissive\" laws, which say mental health professionals can warn potential victims or the police, had no statistically significant effect.\nEdwards is now examining involuntary commitment laws. \"Every state has a different length of time you can commit someone involuntarily if you suspect they are a danger to themselves or others,\" he explains. In some states the period is three days; in some it is three years. He wants \"to see if locking someone up is actually stopping the crime from happening or just delaying it.\"\nGrain and Greens\nEdwards's interests range far beyond mental health. \"We tell our students that the great thing about economics is it's the study of everything,\" he says. He has used official government data on hops and barley crops to estimate how much people were drinking during Prohibition (not as much as you may think), and pored over medical records to determine the effects of Prohibition on infant health (banning alcohol was good for babies).\nEdwards is \"really excited\" about a new paper on golf carts and player performance—a question that caused an uproar in the early 2000s. Casey Martin, a talented golfer born with a degenerative knee condition that makes him unable to get around the course without a cart, sued the Professional Golf Association (PGA), which wouldn't let him use a cart in its mandatory Qualifying School. His case made it to the Supreme Court. The justices agreed with Martin's lawyers that the Americans with Disabilities Act applies at Pebble Beach and Augusta National just as much as it does in any other public place.\nMany commentators were outraged. \"Lots of people were saying, 'He's ruined sports; pretty soon we're going to see quarterbacks on crutches and referees with seeing-eye dogs,'\" Edwards says. The PGA and its defenders argued that walking was a crucial part of the game. But, Edwards wondered, how much of an advantage did Martin really get from his cart?\nSearching for evidence, Edwards hit on a quirk of NCAA scheduling for college golf tournaments. Because these events need to be fit into a single weekend, all players use carts on one tournament day, and walk the other day. Analyzing hundreds of tournaments, Edwards found that players scored worse rather than better when they drove carts. (Possibly because the trudge to the next tee helps a player burn off steam from a bad shot on the previous hole, and gives that player a chance to visualize the approach needed on the upcoming hole, Edwards speculates.)\n\"It actually makes you better to walk,\" Edwards says. \"So not only does it not give him an unfair advantage, it actually puts him at a disadvantage. The point of that paper is, maybe we could be a little more accommodating to people with disabilities.\"\nThere is evidence that judges are beginning to cite empirical legal studies research in their opinions, Edwards says—a trend that should continue as the discipline matures. But Edwards also has another motivating factor: \"I try to do research that's not totally boring to my wife,\" he says. \"Something she can at least pretend to be interested in.\"\nFind more UAB Research at The Mix at UAB", "label": "No"}

{"text": "Comics have been the most noticed, popular but least appreciated forms of art. The comic is targeted at a wide range of genres. These include action, romance, adventure and humour.\nAction comic books are formed from a combination of the newspaper comic strips and pulp fiction. They present visions of strength, heroism, secret powers and speed. They are aimed at offering adventure, excitement and fantasy. Comic books made their appearance in the mid 1930’s. These were humour comics that were sold on small newspaper stands 01. But there soon came extreme pressure to include adventure material within the pages. The genre made new demands on the comic book artists and publishers. Artists started to favour a more representational style, figurative art, bold lettering, strong colours and artists started becoming more ambitious towards action strips. They started to challenge the traditional layout in terms of concept and content. The emphasis was again based on simplicity. The action comic book developed a different aesthetic. The first idea based around this was a character in the first ‘Action Comics’ in June 1938 02. Superman was the first superhero by National Periodicals, which later changed their name to the better known DC Comics in 1940. In this decade of action comics the genre target was children. But the comics often contained political and social themes therefore were also targeted at an older audience. These new comics proved that action stories were as successful as the humour strips. The humour newspaper strips were struggling to contend with the new development of the action comics which were becoming more and more in demand by the genre. DC Comics along with rival Marvel Comics had over taken the comic world by storm, later becoming America’s two best leading brands. These two major companies have wiped out many small adventure comic companies and publishers in their time but still remain the two biggest comic companies.\nIn the early 1940’s the action superhero comics were a unique visual rarity. The brightly coloured covers and action packed stories were irresistible. The new creation of the superhero controlled the pages of the early comics. This resulted in later becoming their own comic stars, having their own comic book range. These superheroes were drawn as muscular men. Strong, courageous, performing remarkable heroic rescues. The costumes are bright and eye catching. Children could only dream and fantasise about growing up to be like one of these amazing heroes.\nSuperhero comics are almost predictable. Their story lines of the good guy defeating the evil world threatening villain are almost unrewarding, as they are the same all the time. This helps the reader understand what to expect and why. Each genre has its own customs. Crime novels for example read similarly. We expect a crime, an inspector, mystery, an investigation and a solution. This is the same as the superhero comic. When we read it we expect a strapping hero, a villain, a fight and victory for the hero.\nMany of the heroes of today have survived over fifty years of publication. Undergoing many physical and critical changes, but still maintaining the key components, for example their morals and style. The genre craves the fantasy of action and adventure. The dangerous missions and the divine personalities all provide firm inspiration. The superheroes are characterised either as a hero with extreme strength and ability or as ‘one of us’. Heroes are honourable, heroic and tough characters. They have strong body language and postures symbolising masculinity. These are better known as establisment figures, an act to follow, showing how they are developed to be indestructible.\nSuperheroes as many things in life have evolved with time. Their image especially has changed particularly with the influence of self-esteem, body building and masculinity. Emotions and sentiments are a weakness usually the heroes care for a loved one or family resulting in pain or sorrow. The female often is used as the victim and is saved by the male hero. This is evidence that masculinity is a principal concept of distinguishing an enduring hero. Male and masculine are distinct examples of how effectively a superhero uses mind and muscle. Gaining public recognition by using authority and self-sufficiency.\n– Post Written By Sarah-Leigh Wills 2014 – Taken from my Dissertation: ‘Is the ‘Marvel Misfit’ a better role model than the traditional superhero?’ Written February 2007.", "label": "No"}
{"text": "NINETEENTH TEXAS CAVALRY\nNINETEENTH TEXAS CAVALRY. The Nineteenth Texas Cavalry served in the Trans-Mississippi Department as part of Parsons's Brigade throughout the Civil War. The regiment mustered into the Confederate Army on March 31, 1862, when fear of the draft encouraged many men to join the cavalry before being inducted into the infantry. The colonel, Nathaniel Macon Burford, had been a law partner of Confederate postmaster general John H. Reagan and served as a district judge in Dallas and surrounding counties. He had joined a battery recruited at Dallas shortly after the war began and fought in Arkansas under Ben McCulloch. In the winter of 1861 Reagan secured a colonel's commission for Burford and permission for him to raise a mounted regiment in North Central Texas. Companies came primarily from the following locations: Company A from Ellis County; Company B from Dallas County; Company C from Ellis County; Company D from Hill County; Company E from Parker County; Company F from Dallas County; Company G from Kaufman County; Company H from McLennan County; Company I from Dallas and Navarro counties; and Company K from Dallas County.\nBurford took the regiment to Arkansas in the autumn of 1862. It is unclear how Burford joined William Henry Parsons's Brigade, especially since the authorities had recommended the troops be transferred to infantry. It is probable that he asked his friends in Richmond to intercede and help his regiment retain its horses, although the lieutenant colonel, Benjamin W. Watson, made a personal plea to Maj. Gen. Thomas C. Hindman in Little Rock to countermand the order to dismount. The Nineteenth operated as scouts and raiders in Arkansas, skirmishing frequently with Union cavalry, until selected to take part in the invasion of Missouri in the spring of 1863. Brig. Gen. John S. Marmaduke took the majority of Parsons's Brigade on the Cape Girardeau raid between April 17 and May 2, 1863, serving under the direct command of Col. George W. Carter. Soon after returning to Arkansas, the Nineteenth was ordered to rejoin Colonel Parsons and the Twelfth Texas in northern Louisiana to help in the defense of Vicksburg. In Louisiana the regiment raided Federally-run plantations that used freed blacks as labor. They raided in the region of Lake Providence and Milliken's Bend.\nThe Nineteenth saw no major action until Maj. Gen. Nathaniel Banks's invasion of Louisiana in 1864. The regiment did not arrive in time to take part in the fighting at Mansfield and Pleasant Hill but did participate in following the Union Army on its retreat down the Red River, fighting numerous skirmishes with Union cavalry and infantry. The Nineteenth saw its last action at the battle of Yellow Bayou on May 18, 1864.\nBurford commanded the regiment until his resignation following the Red River campaign in the spring of 1864; it was subsequently ably commanded by Lt. Col. Benjamin Watson, who had generally led the men in Burford's absence. Returning to Texas early in 1865, the regiment disbanded on May 23, 1865. Throughout its three years of service, the Nineteenth provided valuable service as scouts and raiders and took part in the defense of Texas in the Red River campaign of 1864.\nJohn Q.

{"text": "There are many mainstream Catholic schools, as well as some specialist schools and programs.\nOn this page:\nMainstream Catholic schools are inclusive of all children and young people, including those with a disability. They are provided for Catholic families, but are also open to non-Catholics.\nThere are a few Catholic specialist schools and programs, including for Deaf and hearing impaired students, students with Autism Spectrum Disorder, and students experiencing social, emotional or behavioural challenges (see below). Some provide long-term schooling and some provide placements for children needing a break and additional support before returning to their usual school. There are also a number of ‘flexible learning’ education centres for children and young people who have dropped out of school (‘disengaged’) or are at risk of doing so.\nFamilies might choose a Catholic school because they like its culture, philosophy or educational approach, its approach to students with a disability, its particular programs, curriculum or resources, or because they prefer a single-sex school environment for their child.\n“I didn’t really know what school to pick for Charlie, because I didn’t know initially if he was intellectually impaired or not. I got a lot of support from kindergarten teachers and experts, to help me pick the right school. And I really listened to the people I trusted on that, rather than throw him into a school where he was out of his depth.I had a friend who had a child with a mild disability. And she was really well supported at the [local Catholic] school. And when I was at the school, I met some children who were a bit further down the track, who also had disabilities. And they were really happy, so that was a good sign.\nOne of the reasons I chose the school was because I had friends at the school. School friends, school parents are a big part of our social life, and that’s really important to our family. And when there has been issues with him socially, I’ve been able to ring up a friend, instead of ringing the school, and deal with it that way. Some weeks Charlie will just want to play by himself, and he doesn’t quite know how to break into social interactions again with other children. I just pick up the phone and ring a friend, and then they tend to include him again.” – Janet\nFees and funding\nCatholic schools receive government funding, and also charge student fees. Fees vary from a level comparable with voluntary parent contributions at government schools for many smaller Catholic schools, to much higher fees at other schools. Many schools have fee structures and bursaries to support enrolment by students from a range of socio-economic backgrounds.\nThe Commonwealth and Victorian governments also fund Catholic schools to give additional support to students with a disability. This includes targeted funding through the Literacy, Numeracy and Special Learning Needs (Students with Disabilities) program, which is broadly equivalent to – but funded by the government at a lower level than – the PSD in government schools. This program is administered by the Catholic Education Commission of Victoria.\nBy law, enrolment of students with a disability must be ‘on the same basis’ as other students – so school fees must not be higher for students with disabilities. Nor can the cost of ‘reasonable adjustments’ be passed on to families in any school. For more information, see Education and your child’s rights.\n- Find out more about support in Catholic schools in A guide to supports for students.\nEnrolment and eligibility\nCatholic schools set their own selection criteria and procedures, informed by the policies of their local diocese – although all schools must comply with the Disability Standards for Education and other anti-discrimination legislation, which give students and prospective students with a disability the same right to education and training opportunities on the same basis as students without a disability. Legally, no school can refuse your child a place solely because they have a disability, or because they are ineligible for additional targeted funding.\nCatholic schools have catchments based on parishes, similar to government school zones. Children from a parish are given priority for enrolment in one or more schools. You can also apply to Catholic schools for which your parish does not have priority. Talk to the school you are interested in about their enrolment policy. Living in a school’s priority parish does not guarantee your child a place. This also depends on the school’s enrolment policy and student numbers. Contact individual schools to find out more.\nIf a school offers a place to your child, it must be on the basis that ‘reasonable adjustments‘ will be made to accommodate their needs. It is important to have discussions with the school to clarify what this would mean, to help you make your decision.\nIf you feel that you have been discriminated against in applying for a place for your child, or you have any other complaint in relation to a Catholic school, you can ask for a copy of the school’s complaints handling policy. The Catholic Education Commission of Victoria provides the template for such policies, which lays out who you can complain to, what procedures should be followed, how and where to appeal if you are unsatisfied with the outcome.\n- Find out more about complaints processes in Catholic schools.\nSpecialist Catholic schools\nCo-ed non-residential school and centre offering placements for children experiencing social, emotional and/or behavioural difficulties.\nMacKillop School (Whittington)\nSpecialist co-ed programs for children and young people under 16 who have disengaged or are at risk.\nSt Joseph’s Flexible Learning Centre (North Melbourne )\nEdmund Rice Education Australia.

{"text": "As we once were The wartime emergency medical service and the future NHS\nWhen Mr Chamberlain announced on September 3rd 1939 that this country was at war with Germany, the Emergency Medical Service (EMS) swung into action. This organisation, which was to influence the future structure of the NHS, did not come ‘out of the blue’ but was the result of considerable hard work, cooperation and negotiation between ministries, local authorities, organisations and the military, starting many years earlier.\nInitial ideas about the impact of war on London surfaced in 1926 when a casualty scheme for the City revealed a woeful shortage of ambulances. Furthermore, their designs differed and not all could take standard stretchers. By 1928, the general concept, based on the First World War experiences, was to establish casualty-clearing hospitals in target areas with base hospitals in the country. Casualties resulting from air raids on London would require 36,000 beds.\nFurther planning followed the passing of the Air Raid Precautions Act in 1937. Much discussion ensued regarding which authority was responsible for what. The 1938 Munich Crisis brought matters to a head and the Ministry of Health took responsibility for hospitals, first aid services and ambulances. The armed services had their own hospitals but with access to civilian facilities. The Ministry realised it had no idea of the number of beds available in the country. The subsequent survey revealed the good news that there were 500,000 hospital beds, of which 130,000 were in mental hospitals. The bad news was that not all were in good structural shape: two-thirds were built before 1891 and nearly a quarter before 1861. Many lacked diagnostic facilities, pathology, radiology and operating theatres while catering and heating required urgent attention. At one London hospital, the legs of the cots in the maternity department stood in tins of oil to discourage the cockroaches from crawling up!\nThe Air Ministry anticipated that the Luftwaffe would attempt a ‘knock out’ blow in the first few days of war and estimated that about 100,000 tons of bombs would fall on London in the first fortnight of war! A massive number of civilian and service causalities would result - 25,000 casualties per day for the first ten days of war - thus some 300,000 beds would be required in Great Britain.\nThe Emergency Medical Service\nThe Ministry’s aims were:\n- To create 300,000 beds in hospitals for civilian casualties and all sick service personnel\n- To provide outpatient and hospital treatment in casualty clearing hospitals and in fully equipped base hospitals\n- To treat certain types of injuries and disease in fully equipped and staffed special hospitals\n- To provide adequate accommodation in hospitals for medical and convalescent cases\nTwo categories of hospital existed pre-war: independent hospitals and those controlled by the local authority with specialist units such as tuberculosis and maternity hospitals. The standards provided by the municipal hospitals varied widely. Some were so short of nurses that they started washing patients before 4am. For wartime purposes, hospitals were classified into two groups: Class 1 would carry out surgery and treat casualties, while Class 2 hospitals would provide convalescence and medical care.\nThe Ministry accepted that the current number of beds was inadequate for the anticipated casualties, service personnel and the usual range of civilian illnesses. The total would be increased by:\nSending patients home. On the declaration of a state of emergency, all hospitals, even some mental ones, were to discharge those patients no longer in urgent need of hospital treatment as well as moving patients from larger general hospitals in danger areas to more distant hospitals. These moves would free about 100,000 beds within 24 hours. Hospitals had to make their own arrangements to organise appropriate transport.\nAdditional beds. An extra 100,000 beds were created by ‘crowding’: putting up extra beds into existing wards. Some private homes were equipped and converted for EMS use.\nBuilding hutted accommodation. This would be on existing hospital sites and would provide an extra 40,000 beds. The wards would be 144 feet long and 24 feet wide with kitchen, sluice room, two bathrooms, four WCs, sister’s duty room, linen room and the main ward. This would be 108 feet long and would provide 36 beds. However, if space between beds was reduced to 5 feet then the available space would accommodate 42 beds. This ‘temporary’ accommodation remained in use for many years, as post war doctors well know.\nThese measures would, it was calculated, provide an extra 290,000 beds. To support the system, casualty bureaux were set up to collect information about admissions, deaths, discharges etc. By March 1941 over 80% of hospitals were included in the EMS scheme.\nThis was far from the whole story. Many hospitals required considerable modernisation by installing lifts, improving operating theatres, laundries, kitchens and sanitary facilities. They also needed protection from bomb damage. Ground and upper floors required shielding from blast and splinters, while operating theatres required sandbagging against flying glass. Staff needed bombproof accommodation and, if off duty, access to basements, slit trenches or steel shelters. In the event, many hospitals were bombed. Ten London hospitals were evacuated completely due to bomb damage and a further 7 were closed for repair due to flying bomb damage. In total, enemy action destroyed over 4,400 hospital beds.\nInter-hospital transport was needed to move patients quickly away from the centre of attack. For short journeys, the Ministry arranged the conversion of 300 Green Line buses into ambulances with 8-10 stretchers. Outside London, other bus companies converted 500 buses. For longer distances, 340 train brake vans were converted into ambulance trains with 36 stretchers per van.\nThe Ministry divided the country into regions and appointed one of its medical officers to each. The London region was subdivided into 10 sectors radiating from the centre towards the Home Counties. Each sector had at its apex one or more teaching hospitals, which would triage patients before transferring them to peripheral hospitals. The main teaching hospitals and patients were moved away from the centre: e. g. Guy’s moved to Pembury in Kent.\nFirst Aid Posts. Local authorities provided first aid posts, supervised by the local medical officer of health, and controlled by a local medical practitioner and volunteers. Mobile ambulance parties collected casualties.\nHospital supplies. The government, using the London County Council as agent, purchased large supplies of bedsteads, blankets, mattresses, surgical and hospital equipment, which were stored in regional depots. Hospitals were encouraged to increase and store supplies of drugs and dressings.\nLaboratories. The Medical Research Council was made responsible for the organisation of wartime laboratory services. Vaccines and sera were stored in depots in different parts of the country.\nMedical personnel. Medical organisations created a register of those volunteering to serve in the armed forces and devised a scheme for a doctor’s practice to be continued by another practitioner. By 1941, over 1,700 doctors were employed full time in the service, with some 560 employed part time and thousands employed on a sessional basis. However, the EMS and the Armed Services were remained short of doctors. In April 1940, all doctors were subject to ‘call up’, medical staff were recruited from the USA and foreign ‘alien’ doctors were registered to work in the UK. The shortage was such that even final year medical students were employed. The Polish School of Medicine in Edinburgh, 1941-1949, was established for Polish medical students who received training from Polish Professors.\nNursing Personnel. Because demand for nurses in 1938 exceeded supply, the Ministry set up a Central Emergency Committee for the nursing profession. It created a register of trained or partially trained nurses who would be available for service in wartime. Large numbers of auxiliary nurses and a special volunteer nursing service would support them.\nOperation Pied Piper. The Ministry and the Board of Education were involved in planning the voluntary evacuation of schoolchildren, younger children and expectant mothers from areas considered most ‘at risk’ such as London and the coastal areas of East Anglia and the South Coast.\nAt the end of the war, the EMS was generally considered a success although mistakes had been made. One was that the sudden emptying of beds in tuberculosis hospitals, which resulted in infected patients returning to the community. Sick civilians paid the price of the success. Mental hospitals became overcrowded. Physically ill patients had to wait for admission, experienced delays in investigations and treatment in spite of empty manned EMS beds.\nThe number of casualties. Happily, this proved smaller than anticipated but left large numbers of empty staffed beds available throughout the war. As late as March 1944, there were still 40,000 empty staffed EMS beds. Consequently, the Ministry relaxed the rules to allow the admission of sick civilian patients up to 75% of the hospital’s normal capacity.\nDisplacements. Over 7,600 chronic sick and shelter derelicts, found in public shelters and rest centres in London during the air raid period, were moved to emergency hospitals in the provinces or coastal areas during 10th October–14th November 1940. Similar transfers took place in Southampton, Plymouth, and Cardiff.\nEvacuations. Almost 3.75 million people were displaced, with around a third of the entire population experiencing some effects of the evacuation. In the first three days of official evacuation, 1.5 million people were moved; 827,000 children of school age; 524,000 mothers and young children (under 5); 13,000 pregnant women; 7,000 disabled persons and over 103,000 teachers and other 'helpers'. The evacuation procedure partially ceased in September 1944 and ended in June 1945.\nAftermath for the elderly. Elderly and chronic sick patients were evacuated to safer hospitals but were sometimes moved so often that they ended up in institutions akin to workhouses. In 1947, Dr. Sturdee, at the Ministry of Health, reported on the number and condition of elderly patients evacuated from chronic wards of hospitals in dangerous areas to institutions in safer parts of the country.\n‘It was something of a shock to find that while the patients were being fed and cared for to the extent of being kept clean and free from bedsores, little or nothing was being done in the way of active treatment or rehabilitation. The common view seemed to be that the patients were ‘chronic sick’, and no treatment would be of any avail. They must therefore be kept in bed until they died, in five, ten or possibly twenty years’ time.’\nWhat was the legacy of the EMS? Notable features included the regional organisations, the relationships between central teaching and peripheral hospitals, and the creation of regional specialist centres, regional blood transfusion and laboratory services. Less well-endowed hospitals benefited from upgrading, opening outpatient departments and the expertise of teaching hospitals. Medical education improved, doctors were able to move more freely between voluntary and municipal hospitals, and medical research stimulated. A wag once said that the Luftwaffe had achieved in months what had defeated politicians and planners for at least two decades!\nDunn Lieut. Col. C.

{"text": "A recent report forecasts the market for water flow sensors will be worth $3.1 billion by 2025 due to a heightened focus on water conservation. As sustainability concerns rise, flow sensors are advancing to monitor usage more effectively.\nLet us take a look at a comprehensive overview of water flow sensor technologies, examining the diverse categories and applications both commercially and residentially through a detailed analysis of their underlying functions.\nWhat is a Water Flow Sensor?\nA water flow sensor is a device used to measure the flow of water through pipes and channels. It works by detecting the movement of water and converting it into an electronic signal indicating the rate of flow.\nWater flow sensors are available in diverse sizes to fit various pipe diameters and can measure a wide range of flow rates. They are commonly used in applications like plumbing systems, irrigation networks, water treatment plants and industrial processes where continuous monitoring of water usage is important. Whether detecting leaks, ensuring equitable distribution or maintaining optimal system function, flow sensors provide vital insights into water management and conservation.\nHow Does a Water Flow Sensor Work?\nNext, the question “how does a water flow sensor work?” must have popped in your mind. Let us find out!\nThe main components of a water flow sensor include a turbine wheel, magnet, and Hall Effect sensor. As water flows through the sensor, it makes contact with the turbine wheel located inside. The flowing water causes the turbine wheel to spin at a rate proportional to the flow velocity.\nAttached to the wheel is a magnet that rotates along with it. Nearby is a Hall Effect sensor, which is a solid-state electronic component that detects the presence and strength of a magnetic field.\nAs the magnet attached to the spinning turbine wheel rotates, it causes a change in the magnetic field around the Hall Effect sensor. The sensor detects these changes and outputs square waves or pulses. The number of pulses is directly related to how many times the magnet passes by the sensor per unit of time. Since the rotation speed of the turbine wheel and magnet is dependent on water flow, the pulse output can be used to calculate the flow rate.\nFor every full rotation of the turbine wheel, a specific volume of water will pass through the sensor. The sensor records this volume by counting the number of pulses or square waves during that time period.\nBy measuring the number of pulses over a set time interval, usually one second, the flow rate in units of volume per time, such as litres per minute, can be accurately determined through simple calculations. This basic operating principle allows water flow sensors to provide a digital output corresponding to real-time flow data.\nApplications of Water Flow Sensors\nWater flow sensor applications extend far beyond basic plumbing and irrigation systems. These intelligent devices play an important role in ensuring efficiency, safety, and sustainability across many sectors.\nIn water treatment facilities, flow sensors are crucial for maintaining water quality. They allow operators to dose chemicals like chlorine precisely during purification processes. Minor fluctuations in flow can affect disinfection levels, so sensors ensure chemicals are added at the correct rate.\nSimilarly, flow sensors are vital for industrial processes that rely on water, such as cooling systems and boilers. By monitoring usage, facilities can optimise energy consumption and reduce waste. Environmental monitoring also benefits significantly from flow sensors. Devices placed in rivers and streams provide data that helps with flood prediction and sustainable resource management.\nHowever, the uses of flow sensors go beyond these core applications. In healthcare, they are integrated into technologies like dialysis machines and anaesthesia equipment to regulate fluid delivery. This helps ensure patient safety and treatment effectiveness. Chemical plants rely on flow sensors to maintain the proper flow of reactants and solvents. This is important for preventing accidents and hazardous spills.\nFlow sensors also enhance everyday conveniences. Water heater control systems use them to adjust heating based on demand to save energy. Your morning coffee might owe its quality to a flow sensor that precisely measures water for the perfect brew. Even vending machines employ flow sensors to dispense accurate water quantities and enable fair transactions.\nFrom managing basic needs to safeguarding important industries, water flow sensors play a mostly unseen but critical role. With their ability to continuously monitor and precisely measure flows, these intelligent devices quietly underpin applications across many sectors. As technology advances, the possibilities for flow sensors are vast, considering the wide range of processes that rely on controlled water flow. Their contributions to efficiency, safety, and sustainability will surely continue to expand.\nTypes of Water Flow Sensors\nThere are several different types of water flow sensors that use various technologies to measure water flow accurately:\nElectromagnetic flow sensors:\nElectromagnetic flow meters operate using Faraday's Law of Electromagnetic Induction. A magnetic field is applied to the fluid passing through a conduit, generating a voltage proportional to flow velocity. They have no moving parts and can measure the bidirectional flow of most liquids.\nVortex flow meters:\nThese water flow sensors take advantage of vortex shedding - oscillating vortexes form when fluid flows through a bluff body, and the frequency is determined by flow rate. They are highly accurate, have no moving parts, and can measure liquids, steam, and gases. However, they are limited to certain flow rates and fluid densities.\nUltrasonic flow meters:\nThese water flow sensor types transmit ultrasonic pulses upstream and downstream to calculate flow velocity based on time of flight differences. They are non-invasive, suitable for large pipes, and can measure many fluid types, including gases. However, they may be impacted by acoustic noise or particles in the fluid.\nTurbine flow sensors:\nTurbine flow meters have a rotor engaged by flowing fluid that generates an electrical signal proportional to the flow rate. They are inexpensive, easy to install, and have a wide operating range. However, they are less accurate at low flows and cannot handle dirty or high viscosity fluids without wear.\nPositive displacement meters:\nPositive displacement sensors transport measured volumes of fluid mechanically and are highly precise, even for viscous liquids. However, they have moving parts requiring maintenance.\nCoriolis mass flow meters:\nThese types of water flow sensors use the Coriolis effect induced by vibrating tube walls to measure mass flow rate along with density and temperature directly. They are extremely accurate and unaffected by other fluid properties.\nThermal mass flow sensors:\nThese flow meters apply heat to the fluid and measure temperature changes to determine mass flow rate with very low-pressure drop and high water flow sensor accuracy. However, they only work for gases and have no moving parts.\nAlso Read: Exploring Different Types Of Flow Meters\nWhat is the avg water flow sensor price?\nThe water flow sensor price can vary significantly depending on the specific model and features. On average, homeowners and business owners can expect to pay between Rs. 442.50 to Rs. 1,598.99 for a quality flow meter.\nKey factors that influence the final cost include the needed accuracy, type of liquid, desired flow range, materials, installation environment, and hygiene standards. More advanced sensors with wider flow measurement capabilities tend to have higher price points.\nWhat sensor is used to measure liquid flow?\nThe most common type of sensor used to measure liquid flow is the water flow sensor. These specialised flow meters are designed to precisely monitor and detect the movement of water.\nFlow sensors work by measuring the rate of liquid, gas, or solid flowing through a pipe over a period of time. This measurement is crucial for effectively controlling industrial processes and ensuring machinery's optimal performance.\nFlow sensors can operate mechanically or electronically using ultrasonic detection. Some common varieties include differential pressure, positive displacement, variable area, magnetic, vortex, and thermal flow meters. The appropriate sensor depends on factors like the fluid's nature, viscosity, required flow rate range, and desired accuracy.\nIs a water flow sensor analog or digital?\nWater flow sensors can be either analog or digital. Analog sensors function mechanically by linking flow rate to a physical measurement like fluid displacement or pressure drop, while digital sensors convert flow properties into electrical signals using transducers for a digital readout.\nNavigating Tomorrow’s Challenges with Water Flow Sensor Solutions\nSo, in case you’re looking for the best water flow sensors to digitally monitor your water usage, Kritsnam’s Dhaara Smart is a smart choice to consider. As a new-age water meter combining IoT and advanced sensor technologies, the Dhaara allows for easy remote water consumption management from any location.

{"text": "Explorers also understood the dangers of consuming only lean meat. Vilhjalmur Stefansson wrote as follows:\n\"The groups that depend on the blubber animals are the most fortunate in the hunting way of life, for they never suffer from fat-hunger. This trouble is worst, so far as North America is concerned, among those forest Indians who depend at times on rabbits, the leanest animal in the North, and who develop the extreme fat-hunger known as rabbit-starvation. Rabbit eaters, if they have no fat from another source—beaver, moose, fish—will develop diarrhea in about a week, with headache, lassitude and vague discomfort. If there are enough rabbits, the people eat till their stomachs are distended; but no matter how much they eat they feel unsatisfied. Some think a man will die sooner if he eats continually of fat-free meat than if he eats nothing, but this is a belief on which sufficient evidence for a decision has not been gathered in the North. Deaths from rabbit-starvation, or from the eating of other skinny meat, are rare; for everyone understands the principle, and any possible preventive steps are naturally taken.\"\n\"We were here able to buy some biscuit. I had now been several days without tasting any thing besides meat: I did not at all dislike this new regimen; but I felt as if it would only have agreed with me with hard exercise. I have heard that patients in England, when desired to confine themselves exclusively to an animal diet, even with the hope of life before their eyes, have hardly been able to endure it. Yet the Gaucho in the Pampas, for months together, touches nothing but beef. But they eat, I observe, a very large proportion of fat, which is of a less animalized nature; and they particularly dislike dry meat, such as that of the Agouti. Dr. Richardson, also, has remarked, “that when people have fed for a long time solely upon lean animal food, the desire for fat becomes so insatiable, that they can consume a large quantity of unmixed and even oily fat without nausea:” this appears to me a curious physiological fact. It is, perhaps, from their meat regimen that the Gauchos, like other carnivorous animals, can abstain long from food. I was told that at Tandeel, some troops voluntarily pursued a party of Indians for three days, without eating or drinking.\"I found a very good description of the symptoms here (article by Jessica Ellis).\n\"The mechanics behind rabbit starvation are fairly simple. Protein in the body is converted into glucose by the liver, and can be burned as energy. The liver, however, can only safely process a limited amount of protein at a time. If the body receives more protein than it can safely turn into glucose, the resulting strain on the liver and kidneys can cause an increasing buildup of ammonia and amino acids. The liver then flushes these excess byproducts into the bloodstream, causing dangerous and even fatal consequences.\nIn addition to straining the liver, protein over-consumption also causes various symptoms of malnutrition, including fatigue, nausea, diarrhea, and constant hunger. These symptoms occur because the body is being deprived of necessary nutrition provided only by fat, carbohydrates, and micronutrients such as vitamins. Symptoms will occur regardless of how many calories a person experiencing rabbit starvation eats, since the body is limited in its ability to process energy and nutrition from protein. Thus, a person can be eating an enormous amount of food, yet still experiencing weakness, hunger, and other malnourishment symptoms.\nThe possibility of rabbit starvation leads many health experts to counsel against some protein-heavy diet regimes. Although the exact upper limit for safe protein consumption is not widely agreed upon, some authorities suggest that protein poisoning becomes a concern if protein comprises more than 35% of daily calorie intake. Some suggest that high-protein diets should be monitored by a doctor or dietician to prevent rabbit starvation from taking hold.\"", "label": "No"}
{"text": "In today’s article, we’re going to take a look at the three popular languages: PHP vs. Ruby vs. Python\nWe will check how they work, how they differ from each other, who uses them and how popular each language is.\nAt the end of this article, you will have an idea about which one to learn and which the best option is for each particular task.\nYour Designer Toolbox\nUnlimited Downloads: 500,000+ Web Templates, Icon Sets, Themes & Design Assets\nPHP: Most Popular Scripting Language for the Web\nPHP (Hypertext PreProcessor) is a server scripting language designed by Rasmus Lerdorf, a powerful tool to create dynamic and interactive websites.

A PHP file usually contains HTML tags, and some PHP scripting code.\n<?php // PHP code goes here ?>\nPython: General Purpose Programming Language\nPython is a widely-used high-level (but it also used in a wide range of non-scripting language) design for programmers to express concepts with fewer lines of code. It was conceived in the late 1980s and was implemented by Guido van Rossum.\nPython code resembles the pseudo-code just like all the scripting languages.

Much of the growth is attributed to the popularity of software written in Ruby, particularly the Ruby on Rails web framework.\nAll Ruby files will have the extension “.rb.” Using the Ruby interpreter available in /usr/bin directory, you can run Ruby codes.\n#!/usr/bin/ruby -w puts \"Put something here\";\nTime to Ruby dooby do! It can take a lot of time, and be quite boring, to learn a new programming language. A .Net developer will jump up and say why should I even learn it? I am a professional .Net developer and my day job doesn’t give me time (and scope) to learn a new programming language.\nBut, it isn’t like that. You learn a lot with new programming languages especially when they are a refined version of other optimized ones. Ruby is that sort of language. I agree that the transition from being a noob developer (in a particular programming language) to a pro is arduous but you will appreciate the experience. As of now all that I can do is let you guys know that if you stick around with Ruby, then you won’t be at a loss. Just be positive.\nWhat is Ruby?\nRuby, as I said before, is a refined combination of various programming approaches. Ruby is the perfect mixture of python’s easy to understand flow, Smalltalk’s elegance and Perl’s easy to learn syntax style. Ruby is a high-level object-oriented programming language (as is the case with most of the programming languages these days) which came into existence in mid-1990s in Japan. With time Ruby has started to become more dominant in the U.S. and Europe too.\nRuby is famous for its dynamic type system and automatic memory management. By dynamic type, I mean that most of the type checking in a Ruby program is done during run time which means you don’t have to worry about integer and string types. Ruby will do that for you. We will see more about this in a short example later.\nThe basic purpose of launching Ruby was to make it easy for humans to interact with machines and understand codes. Yukihiro Matsumoto, the father of Ruby, insists that Ruby was designed for programmer productivity and not for machine optimization.\nOften people, especially computer engineers, focus on the machines. They think, “By doing this, the machine will run faster. By doing this, the machine will run more effectively. By doing this, the machine will something something something.”\nThey are focusing on machines. But in fact, we need to focus on humans, on how humans care about doing programming or operating the application of the machines. We are the masters. They are the slaves. – Yukihiro Matsumoto\nWhat is Rails?\nRails is an extremely productive application framework written in Ruby by David Heinemeier Hansson. It is said that developing a web application on Rails is ten times faster when compared to that of a Java-based web application framework. Rails is open source (of course!) Ruby based framework that can be used for easy (and fast) database integration.\nRails is famous for over-the-top ideas which resulted in shunning conventions and picking up a dynamic programming structure. The basic application code and the updated database will always contain everything that Rails will require to execute a program from start to finish.\nA Basic Ruby Program\nSee how interesting (and easy) things will get after this:\npersonal = “I don’t love my girlfriend”\nI don’t love my girlfriend\nYep! That will actually be it to print an output in console. No initialization, semicolons and main methods.\nNow, let us see a quick difference in programming between PHP and Ruby when we have to reverse a string:\nVoila! Your string will be reversed in no time. See the difference in effort in both the programming languages. A Ruby based programming language will make it easy for you to write a program. It is more like writing in English than in coded language. It is the future of programming languages.\nAdvantages of Sticking with Ruby (and Rails)\nI know the world of Ruby is big and I haven’t scratched the surface of it but a blog post will prove to be overly small to dive into the world of Ruby. Henceforth, let us directly go through the advantages of Ruby:\n- Elegant – As I have pointed out before, this happens to be the strength of Ruby. As a programming language Ruby is super elegant and almost like English. It is this similarity to English that makes it easy for noobs to take on Ruby without being afraid of it.\n- Concise and Powerful – Our example above itself explains how concise a Ruby code can be. As short as it can get. Also, Ruby is as powerful as any other language as it is Object Oriented High-Level Programming Language just like other trendy programming languages.\n- Never Reinvents the Cycle – Rails (based on Ruby) is one programming interface that will never let you reinvent the cycle. It generates codes that can be reused over and over.\n- Built in Testing – Rails is famous for its harness and fixtures which act as supporting codes that will make it easier for programmers to write their test cases. Also, Rails creates simple test stubs that can be extended by programmers.\n- Dev, Test and Prod Environments – Rails smartly starts your project in three different environments namely Dev, Test and Prod. All three environments behave a little differently from each other and each complement the original software development life cycle.\nYou are not done yet. You really aren’t. Hang around with Ruby and keep riding the journey on Rails. Someday you will call yourself a Ruby Pro and who knows, your article might just come in handy for me. Ruby has its disadvantages, and the most obvious of them all is the that it is very new to this game. It is still evolving and has a lot to prove. Still, we know that it is going to go places.\nNow, it is in our hands. Either we can wait and let it grow or else jump in and evolve as an expert when there is high demand for Ruby professionals.\nIf you prefer using proven tools and aren’t that hardcore programmer, read this article about what programming languages to learn.\nSo Which Is the Best Programming Language to Use and Learn?\nThe answer you’ll have from the most of the programmers is: “You can do everything with all of them”. All of them are good options. There is no real good or bad answer. It always depends on what you want to accomplish.\nIf you take a step to learn a programming language, chances are, you will use built-in frameworks to use for your projects. Basically, a web framework makes it easier for you to develop your application. Most sites have a common set of functionality (like handling sessions and data validation), and a framework is something that prevents you from re-writing this each time you create a website.\nPHP has several number of developed CMS frameworks available if you already dived in learning it. The most popular PHP CMS are WordPress, Joomla, and Drupal with most of them having loads of plugins. You can write new ones easily with a few days of patience and going through the tutorials.\nThere are others that are quite good too, but using the popular ones increases your probability of finding support quickly or finding that plugin you might need. For Python, there is the Django and CherryPy web framework, which give you quite a good tool kit.\nIf you go for Ruby, I think you’ll be a bit more limited (since that the language is newer) but its basic framework is Rails. You also need to consider which language offers the best support so that you can find answers quickly in case you encounter problems with your codes.\n- PHP is the best language for creating HTML pages\n- Python is a general purpose programming language. It can be used to build almost anything from web apps, crawlers, daemons, and desktop GUI applications.\n- Ruby is best at creating web application of data entities quickly so that you can focus on the special functionality rather than on the query operations: insert, update and delete.\nAnd that’s it.

{"text": "The Art Genome Project\nBy Sarah Gottesman\nMay 20th, 2016\nOriginally found on Artsy.net\nArtists invented the first pigments—a combination of soil, animal fat, burnt charcoal, and chalk—as early as 40,000 years ago, creating a basic palette of five colors: red, yellow, brown, black, and white. Since then, the history of color has been one of perpetual discovery, whether through exploration or scientific advancement. The invention of new pigments accompanied the developments of art history’s greatest movements—from the Renaissance to Impressionism—as artists experimented with colors never before seen in the history of painting.\nFound in iron-rich soil and first employed as an artistic material (as far as we know) in prehistoric cave paintings, red ochre is one of the oldest pigments still in use. Centuries later, during the 16th and 17th centuries, the most popular red pigment came from a cochineal insect, a creature that could only be found on prickly-pear cacti in Mexico. These white bugs produced a potent red dye so sought-after by artists and patrons that it quickly became the third greatest import out of the “New World” (after gold and silver), as explains Victoria Finlay in A Brilliant History of Color in Art. Raphael, Rembrandt, and Rubens all used cochineal as a glaze, layering the pigment atop other reds (like red ochre) to increase their intensity. A non-toxic source for red pigment, the cochineal bug is still used to color lipsticks and blush today.\nEver since the Medieval era, painters have depicted the Virgin Mary in a bright blue robe, choosing the color not for its religious symbolism, but rather for its hefty price tag. Mary’s iconic hue—called ultramarine blue—comes from lapis lazuli, a gemstone that for centuries could only be found in a single mountain range in Afghanistan. This precious material achieved global popularity, adorning Egyptian funerary portraits, Iranian Qur’ans, and later the headdress in Vermeer’s Girl with a Pearl Earring (1665).\nFor hundreds of years, the cost of lapis lazuli rivaled even the price of gold. In the 1950s, Yves Klein collaborated with a Parisian paint supplier to invent a synthetic version of ultramarine blue, and this color became the French artist’s signature. Explaining the appeal of this historic hue, Klein said, “Blue has no dimensions. It is beyond dimensions.”\nFew artists in history have been known for their use of yellow, though Joseph Mallord William Turner and Vincent van Gogh are the most notable exceptions. Turner so loved the color that contemporary critics mocked the British painter, writing that his images were “afflicted with jaundice,” and that the artist may have a vision disorder. For his sublime and sun-lit seascapes, Turner used the experimental watercolor Indian Yellow—a fluorescent paint derived from the urine of mango-fed cows (a practice banned less than a century later for its cruelty to animals).\nFor brighter touches, Turner employed the synthetic Chrome Yellow, a lead-based pigment known to cause delirium. Vincent van Gogh also painted his starry nights and sunflowers with this vivid and joyful hue. “Oh yes! He loved yellow, did good Vincent, the painter from Holland, gleams of sunlight warming his soul, which detested fog,” wrote the painter Paul Gauguin of his friend and artistic companion.\nWhile the color green evokes nature and renewal, its pigments have been some of the most poisonous in history. In 1775, the Swedish chemist Carl Wilhelm Scheele invented a deadly hue, Scheele’s Green, a bright green pigment laced with the toxic chemical arsenic. Cheap to produce, Scheele’s Green became a sensation in the Victorian era, even though many suspected the color to be dangerous for artists and patrons alike. The French emperor Napoleon Bonaparte’s bedroom wallpaper even featured Scheele’s Green, and historians believe the pigment caused the revolutionary’s death in 1821.\nBy the end of the 19th century, Paris Green—a similar mixture of copper and arsenic—replaced Scheele’s Green as a more durable alternative, enabling Claude Monet, Paul Cézanne, and Pierre-Auguste Renoir to create vivid, emerald landscapes. Used as a rodenticide and an insecticide, Paris Green was still highly toxic, and may have been responsible for Cézanne’s diabetes and Monet’s blindness. Not surprisingly, it was eventually banned in the 1960s.\n“I have finally discovered the true color of the atmosphere,” Claude Monet once declared. “It’s violet. Fresh air is violet.” The purple shadows and lavender specks of light that enliven Monet’s haystacks and waterlilies owe much to a little-known American portrait painter named John Goffe Rand. In 1841, Rand grew frustrated with the messy practice of storing paint in a pig’s bladder, which was the prevailing method for preserving pigments at the time, and invented a more practical and portable option: a collapsible paint tube made of tin. This enabled artists like Monet to paint plein air, easily transporting their color to outdoor locations to capture impressions of the environment, and in turn led to the production of nuanced, pre-mixed paint shades in tin tubes, such as Manganese Violet, the first affordable mauve-colored paint that meant artists no longer had to mix red and blue to make purple. The Impressionists—especially Monet—so adored the new hue that critics accused the painters of having “violettomania.”\nThe darkest pigment found in Old Masters paintings is aptly named “bone black,” and is produced by burning animal bones in an air-free chamber. While the Impressionists avoided black paint—finding areas of darkness to be filled with color—American artists in the ’50s and ’60s returned to black with a vengeance.\nFrank Stella, Richard Serra, and Ad Reinhardt all created monochromatic black paintings, stripping the canvas of any subject matter other than the paint itself. Taken together, these painters prove that black is as nuanced a color as any other, capable of many permutations, tones, and textures. Speaking about his practice in 1967, Reinhardt quoted the Japanese painter and printmaker Katsushika Hokusai, saying, “There is a black which is old and a black which is fresh. Lustrous black and dull black, black in sunlight and black in shadow.”\nOf all the pigments—Chrome Yellow, Scheele’s Green, Paris Green—that have been banned over the centuries, the color most missed by painters is likely Lead White. This hue could capture and reflect a gleam of light like no other, though its production was anything but glamorous. The 17th-century Dutch method for manufacturing the pigment involved layering cow and horse manure over lead and vinegar. After three months in a sealed room, these materials would combine to create flakes of pure white.\nWhile scientists in the late 19th century identified lead as poisonous, it wasn’t until 1978 that the United States banned the production of lead white paint. In this era, Robert Rauschenberg, Robert Ryman, and Agnes Martin turned to titanium and zinc whites to create monochromatic white paintings, while artists like Dan Flavin bypassed pigments altogether in sculptures that emitted white light directly.", "label": "No"}

{"text": "Ransomware has been around for a long time. The first case originates in the late 80s with something called the AIDS Trojan– a simple floppy disk was sent to the WHO AIDS Conference in 1989. When the software it contained was opened, it demanded either a monthly payment of $189 or a lifetime payment of $378 to decrypt the files it contained. It was an easy attack to circumvent, in the end, and asked very little of the end users. Since then, ransomware has changed a lot- both in its tactics and its scope.\nUp until the mid-2010s, ransomware was focused on mostly attacking individuals. Once the attacks on corporations began, however, the damages in money and affected people increased to unimaginable levels. In 2017, the largest attack to date happened in South Korea, when web host Nayana paid 1 million to the hackers who infested their computers with a virus called Erebus. It was clear back then that the landscape around ransomware was only going to get worse. In fact, the South Korean attack was far outdone by the recent Colonial Pipeline hack in May, which originally cost the company 4.4 million USD in bitcoin.\nIn 2020, we started to see the increase of something called Ransomware 2.0. Previous methods of ransomware have simply locked users out of their systems indefinitely until they pay. This meant that if the victims did not comply, the data was simply lost to them forever, so long as it remained encrypted. Ransomware 2.0 involves the hackers stealing and copying the data first and then encrypting it. Once the hackers have the data, they’re able to threaten to leak it to the public. This is an especially scary concept when applied to corporations, as it has been for the past years. Companies now have extra pressure on them to pay so that their users don’t lose faith in their security and end up hurt from the leaks. It is no longer just a loss of access to data, but a complete loss of privacy for that data. Unfortunately, that leaves end-users, and not the companies themselves, as the real victims of the breach. For instance, in December 2020, a cosmetic surgery group called The Hospital Group had patient data stolen which led to a leak of patient’s personal data, including photographs. In this case, it seems that personal data such as payment information wasn’t collected, but the intent to try and destroy the medical group’s reputation by humiliating and outraging its customer base is clear. Ransomware groups work on the assumption that corporations would often prefer to pay the money than deal with the fallout of data leaks, which can also be extremely costly. However, it is still discouraged to pay these hackers when the attacks happen- after all, if the tactics work, they will continue.\nProtecting your data on personal devices is already a difficult task, but trying to control how companies protect your data is impossible. Companies strive to earn trust from their consumers, especially in cases where they commonly handle sensitive information. In retrospect, it seems like a natural evolution of ransomware to move from a lockdown situation to a hostage situation, with you as the unwitting victim. What’s in store for ransomware next? It’s unclear, but as long as Ransomware 2.0 continues to yield results, it may remain static for the next few years.", "label": "No"}

{"text": "In recent years, discussion about economic concepts like inequality and income mobility has been everywhere. Thrust into the spotlight by the global financial crisis, they have rarely left the front pages thanks to Thomas Piketty’s Capital in the Twenty-First Century and a series of rolling financial crises in Europe. These days you can’t even enjoy your artisanal quail egg omelet and fair trade coffee without some bearded, tweed wearing, artisanal whiskey distilling, overgrown trust fund baby complaining about how unfair it all is, in between cashing rent checks from his parents.\nWhen it comes to discussions of inequality though, one of the underlying assumptions that few are willing to challenge is that the drivers of inequality largely boil down to nepotism and inherited wealth, while the answer to most inequality based problems comes down to one idea: meritocracy.\nWhat is a Meritocracy?\nMeritocracy is a system in which the people who hold power (through democratically elected means or otherwise) are those that are most deserving based on individual merit. In common use, it is usually taken to be slightly broader than that – a world in which money and success are allocated, perfectly, to those who are deemed to deserve it the most.\nIn an increasingly polarized political system in the US, meritocracy – or ‘the right to rise’ – is often the only thing that politicians on both sides of the aisle seem to agree on. The ideal of meritocracy is so ingrained in the US that Americans are famous for their belief that hard work will be rewarded with untold wealth and success. But this belief is far from unique to the US. In Australia meritocracy has long been considered part of the national identity with politicians of all stripes often talking in jingoistic terms about ‘the fair go’.\nFor all the talk of meritocracy though, how feasible is it in the real world? What would be some of the major hurdles to implementing a more meritocratic system?\nThe first question that should arise whenever meritocracy is discussed is how is merit defined? There are 4 basic criteria that most commonly are thought of as contributing to merit:\n- Work ethic\nFor almost all competitions where there are winners and losers – jobs, university positions or other – some combination of these traits will generally be used to decide a winner. To keep things simpler, let’s focus on the job market for now.\nThe first thing to consider when defining merit for a given job is that to have an accurate measure of merit, the criteria need to be modified for every position. Jobs requiring manual labor place a higher value on work ethic but little value on qualifications. Jobs in tech often place higher value on intelligence, but less on formal qualifications and, depending on the role, large amounts of experience can be seen as detrimental. Most jobs will require applicants to possess experience in one or more specific areas.\nFor the most part, this customization of criteria for each job is already being done – a job advertisement is essentially a statement of the criteria that merit will be assessed by. But the question is, are those criteria actually the correct ones to identify the best possible person for a given job? I believe the answer to that question is a resounding “no”. Let me explain why.\nLet’s look at a common example that anyone who has tried changing sector, industry or country in his or her career will be able to relate to.\nImagine you have been working for around 10-15 years and have spent all of that time in one industry. During that time you have picked up a lot of useful workplace skills, spreadsheets, experience with various applications, writing skills, general how-not-to-piss-everyone-off skills and so on. Now you want a new challenge that will require a lot of the skills you have, but in a different industry. You approach a recruiter, bright eyed and excited by the possibilities, but despite your best efforts to sell your skills as relevant, the recruiter basically discards your experience as worthless and tries to push you towards a low level role or something in your old industry.\nThis experience is a simple example that reveals an underlying truth – if we were being truly meritorious, there could be no fixed criteria for merit for any job because there is no way to preemptively identify what combination of skills and experience will ultimately prove to be the most valuable.\nThe possibilities for what combination of skills and experience lead to the best performance in a role are endless. Many successful business owners do not have MBAs. Many of the best investors on Wall Street do not come from finance backgrounds. Some of the best NFL punters are ex-Australian Rules Football players. What people who excel tend to have in common is a combination of skills and experiences that allows them to bring a different perspective to a problem.\nYet, despite history proving time and time again that different perspectives are often vital to important insights, it is a rare employer or recruiter that will take a bet on a candidate with ‘unusual experience’ rather than a candidate who ticks all the boxes. The reason for that is simple – it is safer. Choosing the candidate that ticks the boxes provides cover (“I gave you what you asked for”) and it gives a better guarantee of an acceptable level of performance. The unusual candidate could be fantastic – but they could also be a complete flop who turns out to be way out of their depth.\nUnfortunately, this is only the first hurdle for a true meritocracy – if merit is a difficult thing to define, it is an even more difficult thing to measure.\nOnce we get past the step of deciding what criteria will determine the most deserving applicant, the next step is deciding who best meets those criteria. A quick look at the application process for college admission or a technical job will give you an instant appreciation for the lengths that people will go to try and get an accurate assessment of an applicant’s true merit.\nTests, interviews and essays are probably the most common tools used to assess merit but all can be (and are) gamed by people who understand the system. Material for tests can be rote learned with little to no understanding necessary. Interviews are notorious for being poor predictors of talent, which makes sense when you consider that the most confident people are often delusional. Essays, aside from providing evidence of basic writing skills, are assessed subjectively.\nEven if these tools for assessing merit were designed in such a way as to prevent gaming the system, these are still three very narrow tests of ability. As Megan McArdle explains, the experience in China shows that selecting for people who do well on exams gives you… a selection of people who do well on exams.\nAssumptions and Prejudice\nOne interesting side effect of the difficulty in determining merit is it leads to people basing their assessment on completely superficial qualities (at least partially). A good dress sense, physical attractiveness, and being an eloquent speaker are just some examples of relatively superficial qualities people use to assess intelligence and merit. As frustrating as this can be for the unshapely, poorly dressed, mumblers out there, these are all things that can be improved and worked on (at least to some degree). Others are subject to prejudices that cannot be addressed – the impact of race on the ability to get interviews, for example, is well established.\nAnother concerning trend is the increasing use of someone’s current level of success/wealth as an indicator of merit. That is, if someone is wealthy and/or successful, they must be someone who is highly intelligent and works harder than everyone else. This line of thinking is dangerous for two reasons:\n- Too much value is placed on the opinions of wealthy and successful people – particular on topics outside their domain. Anyone who has listened to Clive Palmer or Donald Trump speak should know that is a mistake.\n- The implicit assumption made when you believe wealthy and successful people are fully deserving of their place in the world is that anyone who is poor and unsuccessful is also fully deserving of their situation.\nEvidence of this thinking is present everywhere to some degree, but seems particularly prevalent in the US, where TV shows like Shark Tank are extremely popular and prominent CEOs are regularly asked for their opinions on public policy issues.\nThis belief system can largely be explained as the flip side of the optimistic view American’s have of their economic prospects. As this paper from the Brookings Institution highlights, American’s are far more likely to believe hard work and intelligence will be rewarded and yet are second only to the UK in terms of how closely correlated a son’s earnings are to his fathers (i.e. hard work has the least chance of improving your situation). If you truly believe that hard work and intelligence is all you need to be successful, you must also believe that people who are currently experiencing success have those attributes.\nBest Person for the Job\nGoing back to our problems with creating a meritocracy, everything discussed so far has overlooked a key factor in this endless quest to find the most deserving – people are not cogs that can be simply transferred in and out of a machine seamlessly. The person who ‘deserves’ the job on merit (provided we can define it and measure it accurately) is often NOT the best person for the job. The best person for the job is often determined by qualities such as:\n- how that person fits in with the team culture,\n- their personality type, and\n- how they respond to authority (or the lack thereof).\nThese traits are all key factors in how well someone will perform in a given role and yet none would typically be thought of as meritorious qualities.\nThis realization is not new. Employers and hiring firms have been pushing the idea of the ‘beer test’ (asking yourself which of the candidates would you most like to go for an after-work beer with) for some time now. But it does beg the question – what would happen if a company simply hired the ‘best’ candidates for each position without considering whether these people will work well together? Would that team be more productive than a team that hired less ‘deserving’ candidates but aimed to build a harmonious work place? The entire body of management knowledge (and every buddy cop movie ever made) would tell us otherwise.\nOne thing that becomes obvious when you start thinking about how a true meritocracy would actually work is how difficult it would be to implement:\n- Many of the criteria we associate with someone being deserving of a role or position are subjective or exclude applicants who would in fact be far superior.\n- Our methods of assessment are often deeply flawed, subject to gaming and our own prejudices.\n- Selecting the most objectively deserving candidates is not guaranteed to provide the best results anyway.\nYet, despite the reasons above hopefully being enough to give pause the next time someone begins expressing frustration with the current lack of meritocracy, all of these issues are only really logistical problems.\nThere is a good argument to be made that we can and should try to improve on all of these things – that we should aim to get better at identifying the right people and refine our methods of assessing skills. We should pay more attention to team fit and personalities when selecting the best candidate. It is hard to imagine the world being a worse place if employers were more open minded about what skills might be valuable to their company and sociopaths were less likely to impress during an interview.\nHowever, the next question is how far should we take this. What does a truly meritocratic society look like and is it something we really want? That is the subject of discussion in Part II in this series on meritocracy.\n You can easily replace ‘industry’ in this story with ‘company’, ‘field’ or ‘country’.\n Einstein famously worked at a patent office where his work often exposed him to the transmission of electric signals and electrical-mechanical synchronization of time.

{"text": "In 1924, Edmund Rossiter, a research chemist for the British Cyanides Company Ltd. (later to become British Industrial Plastics), developed a process for the condensation of Thiourea with Formaldehyde, first called beetle. The result of the process was the production of a “water-white” synthetic resin syrup. This was a major breakthrough in the development of plastics as prior to this, the phenolic resins used in the production of Bakelite had been straw coloured or brown. In 1925, processes were developed to turn this “water-white” syrup into white and pale-coloured moulding powders by combining the resin with cellulose pulp. These became known as Beetle moulding powders and were the first white ‘paper filled’ moulding powders to be produced anywhere in the world.\nBandalasta was the name given to a series of mostly mottled plastic wares was produced by the English firm, Brookes and Adams. The purity of the solours and the translucency of the material made for the unsual marbled effects and the appearance of stoney solidity. The following description was adapted from a Bandalasta sales catalogue from about 1927: “The synthetic resin was ground up with a suitable “filler,” and a dye added to produce the required colour. The requisite quantity of this powder was taken, the various colours being carefully weighed and blended by skilled workmen, the quantity being sufficient to fill the mould producing the shape required. The article was then moulded or shaped under a pressure of 2 tons to the square inch in hardened and beautifully polished steel dies, hydraulic machinery giving pressures up to some hundreds of tons being used. Heat was applied during the process that caused the resin to soften and flow. The heat and pressure was maintained for several minutes, when a chemical change took place, the resin hardened, and the article took the shape of the mould. At the end of this time the resulting piece of Bandalasta was removed from the mould and allowed to cool, and subsequent heating could not soften it again. The edges were then trimmed and the surface polished by special machinery and the result was the beautiful Bandalasta article that could not be successfully imitated by any other process.”\nBecause Leo Hendrk Baekeland brought all the key patents for producing the new resins, the naming “Bakelite” became the common word for all infusible and insoluble plastics.\nIn: Bandalasta catalogue, “The ideal picnic and dainty table ware”, Brooks & Adams, 1927, p.8.\nViewing by appointment.

{"text": "Henry Posamentier had success in a study he conducted using seismic geomorphology in the Java Sea while he was with Arco Indonesia.\nThe study used a combination of seismic reflection attributes, time slices and horizon slices extracted from 3-D seismic volumes to look at alluvial systems in the near surface Late Pleistocene sediments and the deeper Miocene of the southern Java Sea shelf, offshore northwest Java.\nThe plan view expression of these systems range from low sinuosity to high sinuosity and incised to unincised.\nAn incised valley develops when a river has cut into its floodplain sufficiently so that even when it is at flood stage, flow doesn't overtop the riverbanks. This leaves the formerly active floodplain abandoned and serving as interfluves. Incised valley systems are most commonly thought to have characterized extensive shelf settings each time a relative sea-level fall has occurred.\nLate Pleistocene alluvial systems imaged on the shelf were active during periods of lowered sea level when vast shelf areas were exposed. Only a few of these systems are characterized by incision. The hallmark of an incised valley is the presence of numerous smaller tributary valleys that develop on the abandoned floodplain that feed the trunk valley.\nThese tributary valleys form in response to drainage of the floodplain and are characterized by longitudinal profiles anchored or adjusted to the level of the channel within the trunk incised valley, according to Posamentier.\nIncised valley systems can be filled with a complex array of depositional systems, ranging from open marine to estuarine to fluvial. Incised valleys can be the sites of numerous stratigraphic discontinuities that punctuate the stratigraphic architecture, including:\n- Tidal ravinement surfaces.\n- Base of channel local erosional surfaces.\n- Valley within valley widespread erosional surfaces.\nIt is not uncommon for incised valleys to be the sites of multiple incision events associated with successive sea-level falls.\nIncised valleys have been the subject of numerous studies in recent years, he said. Such systems have been thought to be the most common response to relative sea-level fall.\nStudies of incised valleys largely have been based on outcrop, well log and core data. Incised valley recognition has been based largely on the presence of multi-story channel fill, the presence of a significant time break at the channel base or the absence of a transitional facies between the channel/valley fill and the underlying substrate.\nHowever, the most unequivocal evidence for the existence of incised valleys -- the presence of small subordinate tributary valleys to the principal trunk valley -- has rarely been used.\nThat will change, Posamentier believes, now that 3-D seismic data has been introduced into the process. In past studies coeval incised tributary valleys were not commonly recognized due to the discontinuous nature of most forms of data other than 3-D seismic data.\nPosamentier said lowstand unincised alluvial bypass systems have not been well documented. They are difficult to distinguish from high stand alluvial systems -- and in mid- to outer shelf environments, a niche commonly occupied by lowstand depositional elements, their presence has not been anticipated.\nAt such times, unincised alluvial systems are consequently mistaken for incised valleys.\nThe shallow Pleistocene section Posamentier studied in the Java Sea is characterized by a variety of alluvial systems that are clearly imaged on 3-D seismic data. The alluvial systems range from high to low sinuosity channels, to braided channels.\nIn some cases these alluvial systems are clearly associated with small tributary valleys.\n\"These time slices illustrate the geomorphologic evolution of the Late Pleistocene section under the southern Java Sea shelf,\" he said.\nSeveral slices showed a prominent channel system that appears to lie within a valley -- which in turn appears to be associated with numerous subordinate tributary valleys.\nThe tributary valleys are characterized by a dendritic drainage pattern, and in most instances extend only short distances away from the trunk system.\nThe width of the principal trunk valley is about three to four kilometers in the north widening to five kilometers in the south. A single channel that bifurcates in places and is characterized by low sinuosity dominates the trunk system.\nAlso, lateral accretion with associated meander scroll bars can be recognized within the incised valley.\nThis system seems to be fully confined by valley walls. The trunk valley can be mapped across three 3-D seismic volumes for a total distance of 90 kilometers and lies approximately 110 kilometers from the closest shelf-slope break to the south-southwest, resulting in presumed total valley length of at least 200 kilometers.\n\"We gathered a great deal of details on how this incised valley formed in the near surface Pleistocene that we can export to datasets where the data quality might not be as good,\" Posamentier said. \"We're not prospecting at this level that's just about 100 meters below the seafloor, but with the superior resolution at this level we are learning a great deal.\n\"Here we have a near modern system that shows us what has been preserved,\" he continued. \"We can then extrapolate what we have learned here to deeper systems where we are prospecting for hydrocarbons.\n\"Clearly, the higher the resolution of the data the greater detail we can see,\" he said. \"In near surface sections we can detect bed thicknesses of one to two meters. At deeper levers where the data resolution is not as good we might not be able to image anything less than 15 meters.\"\nDown In the Valley\nThe study also looked at horizon slices through the deeper Miocene shelf section, which is interpreted as constituting an unincised lowstand alluvial bypass system, according to Posamentier.\nConspicuous by their absence are any incised tributary valleys, such as those observed within the Pleistocene section.\n\"This Miocene alluvial system was emplaced on the exposed seafloor during a rapid sea level fall and flowed towards the southeast as indicated by the truncation of meander scroll bars to the northwest,\" he said. \"The high-sinuosity channel was established first, followed by infilling, abandonment, and eventual establishment of the low-sinuosity channel, which flowed towards the south.\"\nNo true incised valleys have been observed on the 3-D seismic data in the Miocene section. This could be a result of inadequate seismic coverage or the shelf in this basin was not fully emerged during the Miocene -- the amplitude of sea-level change was insufficient to expose the shelf relative to the highstand water depth at the outer shelf.\nPosamentier said the seismic used in the study was high quality data, so it is likely the shelf was not fully exposed.\nIn light of the abundance of unincised lowstand alluvial deposits observed in this study, this play type should be relatively common in the rock record. However, review of the literature reveals a virtual absence of documented unincised lowstand alluvial deposits, he said.\n\"Whether these deposits have been overlooked or misinterpreted is not clear,\" he said. \"In the least, their clear under-representation in the literature should prompt a re-evaluation of previously interpreted incised valley systems on the one hand and a closer look at lowstand deltaic or shoreface systems that seem to lack fluvial feeder channels on the other.\n\"Unincised lowstand alluvial deposits should be especially common in shallow marine basins with gentle rap margins such as intracratonic basins and shallow foreland basins,\" he said. \"Such basins commonly lack a necessary high-gradient seafloor, such as encountered at the outer shelf or upper slope on passive continental margins, required to induce valley incision.\"", "label": "No"}

{"text": "Movie’s have made this sea disaster famous, but do you know which International Collision Regulation Rule the Captain of the Titanic, Captain E.J Smith broke?\nDeparting from Southampton, England on April 10, 1912, bound for New York Titanic’s owners were keen for her to deliver a good show of speed for the voyage. On the 14th of April, at 22.5 knots, near to her top speed of 24 knots iceberg warnings began to come in from other vessels. Iceberg warnings were common at that time of the year and Captain Smith being a prudent and experienced mariner altered course slightly to the southwest. At 11.40pm the lookout in the crow’s nest sounded the alarm, “Iceberg dead ahead”. The helm was put hard to starboard, but not quickly enough. Less than forty seconds after the alarm, the iceberg struck the Titanic a glancing blow, punching a series of holes beneath her waterline.\nThere is little doubt that pressure for a speedy Atlantic crossing clouded the judgement of a capable Captain. Have you guessed which rule Captain Smith broke?\n“Every vessel shall at all times proceed at a safe speed” Rule 6\nProceeding at a safe speed means taking into consideration:\n- Visibility (fog, rain, spray)\n- Traffic density\n- Manoeuvrability and stopping distances of the vessel\n- Background lights at night time\n- Weather conditions\n- State of wind, sea and current\n- Depth of water\n- Navigation hazards (ice, rock shoals, channel markers, other vessels and any submerged floating objects)\n- Limitations of radar\nTravelling at a safe speed means that your vessel can be stopped in time to avoid a sudden danger. As the Skipper it is your responsibility to keep a proper lookout at all times and to be continually assessing your speed for safety. Slow down at night and in conditions of poor visibility.

{"text": "Noise control fact sheet - Working quiet\nA lot of the noise which you are exposed to at work can be reduced by 'working quiet'. Regular maintenance of plant and using a quiet method for a task can reduce the noise you and your co-workers are exposed to. This fact sheet offers some guiding principles and practical ideas on to how to work quietly.\nImpact or pressure\nUsing impacts (short, sharp bursts of energy, e.g., a hammer) to do a job can be very effective, but is very noisy. Sharp impacts cause high peak noise levels, which can sometimes cause instant permanent hearing loss. Sometimes using a steady pressure can bring the same result, with a lot less noise.\n- bend metal in a press or a vice instead of hammering; and\n- screw type fittings are usually quieter to insert than nails.\nChoose quieter tools or machines\nIdeally, your workplace should have noise level information (either from the manufacturers or from measurements done in the workplace) for each noisy piece of plant. Using this, you can select the quietest plant for the job.\n- an electric power tool may be quieter than a pneumatic one; and\n- choose a silenced compressor or power pack.\nReduce noisy work\nThe risk of noise deafness depends on both the noise level and the time you are exposed, so choose methods which reduce the amount of time spent on noisy work.\n- More accurate cutting, bending, welding and fixing means less need for noisy corrective work in hammering and grinding; and\n- if two machines produce roughly the same noise, use the faster one.\nReduce noise output\nReduce Impact Velocity\nLowering the velocity of impact can reduce impact noise.\n- Lower materials slowly to the ground or floor, using the proper manual handling techniques; and\n- reduce the fall height of objects such as tools, offcuts etc. by using a bench, breaking the fall of the object or working close to the ground.\nSpread impacts over a longer time\nBy spreading the impact over a slightly longer time, it is possible to do the same work with less noise.\n- use a 'dead blow' hammer (filled with lead shot) or a soft face hammer; and\n- place a wood block between the hammer and workpiece.\nMany impact noises need never occur!\n- use rubber floor mats to cushion noise of falling or rolling objects;\n- treat work benches;\n- line scrap bins with rubber; and use rubber buffers on truck trays, bin lids, gates etc.\nReduce working forces\nSometimes the system provides more 'grunt' than you need.\n- when using nail guns, air hammers, et cetera try to reduce the pressure in the air line (using a regulator) to the minimum needed for the task; and\n- avoid overloading machinery so that it \"screams\".\nDamp the noise radiation\nDamping the vibration, in the same way as you can damp the ringing of a wine glass by putting your hand on it can reduce the 'ringing' resonance of materials that have been impacted. The module on Building Quiet gives information on damping.\n- lay rubber blankets or sand-filled bags on the vibrating workpiece; and\n- use materials which radiate less noise than sheet metal, e.g., steel mesh, plastic for scrap bins, guards etc.\nSeparate the noise from the people\nEven if you have to be exposed to your own noise, others in a workplace can avoid unnecessary noise if you are careful where you position your plant.\n- try not to work in a corner, or an 'echo-ey' area, as this increases noise;\n- work further away from others, even outside;\n- use mobile screens or work behind partitions; and\n- locate your compressor or power pack further away, outside or behind a screen.\nControl access to noisy areas\nThere are some simple ways of preventing people being in areas where noise is occurring.\n- restrict access to noisy areas by cordoning off and/or warning signs, in consultation with the relevant persons on site; and\n- arrange to carry out very noisy tasks at times when other employees are not at the workplace.\nWhy machines get noisier with use\n- Here are 9 reasons why machines of all types may get noisier with use.\n- Worn or chipped gear teeth - worn or chipped teeth will not mesh properly. The shiny wear marks are often visible on the teeth.\n- Worn bearings - bearing wear will show up as vibration and noise, as flat spots or cracks appear in the balls.\n- Slackness between worn or loose parts - this appears as rattling noises, squealing from slack drive belts, 'piston slap' in motors, air leaks, etc.\n- Poor lubrication - this appears as squeaking noises due to friction or excess impact noise in dry and worn gears or bearings.\n- Imbalance in rotating parts - just like your car wheels, any imbalance in a fan impeller or motor shaft will show up as excess vibration.\n- Obstruction in airways - a build-up of dirt or a bent/damaged piece of metal in an airway or near a moving part, e.g., a bent fan guard, can cause whistling or other 'air' type noises.\n- Blunt blades or cutting faces - blunt or chipped saw teeth, drill bits, router bits etc, usually make the job noisier as well as slower.\n- Damaged silencers - silencers for air-driven machines or mufflers for engines may become clogged with dirt, rusted out or damaged, so losing their ability to absorb noise.\n- Removal of a noise-reducing attachment - mufflers, silencers, covers, guards, vibration isolators etc., which reduce noise, should never be removed except during maintenance, and then must be replaced.\nHow wear and tear affects noise output\nWe can understand how wear and tear affects noise output by looking at the 'bathtub' curve (see graphic in PDF version of this document). This shows what happens to the noise output of a machine over its working life.\nServicing needs to be carried out at Point C, before the wear and tear becomes serious. By doing this, we may not achieve a large noise reduction, as the noise level will drop back to the level at Point A or Point B. But what we will do is to avoid the period of high noise exposure up to Point D.\nNot only this, but repairs carried out at Point D are going to be much more expensive.\nWorkSafe study on noise output\nWorkSafe carried out a study to see how this works in practice. (Reports ENC-6-94 and ENC-7-94 available in the WorkSafe library).\n- A total of 11 power tools, including drills, angle grinders, sanders, a circular saw and a planer were tested for noise \"before\" and \"after\" routine servicing at a commercial power tool service centre.\n- The average noise level 0.5 m away was 93.9 dB(A) 'before' and 92.0 dB(A) 'after'.\n- Noise reductions ranged up to 7 dB(A).\n- The average reduction was 1.6 dB(A).\n- As expected, this average reduction is small in terms of decibels. However, it means that sound energy output before maintenance was 45% higher, showing that wear and tear was clearly on the rise.\n- One machine with badly chipped gear teeth. Its noise output had risen to 100 dB(A), mostly because of a dramatic rise in gear noise level (it was not included in the 11 machines tested as it was not able to be repaired and re-measured at the time.)\n- The average cost of repairs related to noise reduction was about $50, or about $30 per decibel of noise eliminated. This is cheap noise control, especially when you think of the expensive repairs and the noise you have avoided!\nIn other studies on specific machines, the Department noted significant noise reductions through careful maintenance work:\n- The noise level of a common type of reciprocating compressor was reduced by about 8 dB(A), by adjusting the valve seating to improve the seal and adding \"Molyslip\" additive to the lubricating oil to reduce roughness in the piston stroke.\n- The noise level of a pneumatic knife used in abattoirs was reduced by about 8 dB(A), by improving the balance of the rotor vanes and replacing bearings and a worn collar which allowed parts to rattle.\n- The noise level of an electric motor and belt drive for an aluminium docking saw was reduced by 15 dB(A) when free running, by replacing squealing belts and worn motor bearings and drive pulley bearings.\nHow can I tell when my machine needs servicing?\nThere are three simple ways you can check whether any of the nine problems above are starting to appear.\nLook - can you see signs of wear? Is the machine's performance down? Remember, however, that only qualified people may take an electrical machine apart.\nFeel - some of the problems will show up as looseness or increased vibration, which you can learn to recognise by feel, especially in hand-held machines. Again, only touch the machine where you can do so safely.\nListen - your ears are a good fault detector - even with hearing protectors on. Listen for new noises, especially tonal ('whining') sounds, repeated impacts, or high frequency ('screech') sounds. Also, slipping belts will cause a screech at start-up, while a damaged bearing may appear as a 'clunk' during run-down.\nEliminate or reduce noise at the source by using a quieter method for doing the task, using a quieter machine, and doing regular maintenance on plant.\nInstead of having to think of these points every time you do a job, work through the most useful ideas in consultation with others in your workplace to come up with a set of procedures for working quiet. Ideally, your workplace should have in place a system for checking and servicing the various machines and power tools and a set of procedures for quiet working methods.\nShare this page:", "label": "No"}

{"text": "The birth of Jesus (Yeshu Satsang) is the reason behind probably the most widely celebrated global holiday – Christmas. Though many know about Christmas, fewer know Jesus’ birth from the gospels. This birth story is far better than modern-day Christmas with Santas and gifts, and so is worth knowing.\nA helpful way to learn about Jesus’ birth in the Bible is to compare it with Krishna’s birth since there are many similarities between these two stories.\nThe Birth of Krishna\nVarious scriptures give different details of Krishna’s birth. In the Harivamsa, Vishnu is informed that the demon Kalanemin was re-born as the wicked King Kamsa. Deciding to destroy Kamsa, Vishnu incarnates to be born as Krishna into the house of Vasudeva (a former sage re-born as a cowherd) and his wife Devaki.\nOn earth, the Kamsa-Krishna conflict started by prophecy when a voice from the sky announced to Kamsa foretelling that Devaki’s son would kill Kamsa. So Kamsa was fearful of Devaki’s offspring, and imprisoned her and her family, murdering her children as they were born to not miss striking Vishnu’s avatar.\nHowever, Krishna was born to Devaki and, according to Vaishnava devotees, at the instant of his birth there was an atmosphere of prosperity and peace as the planets automatically adjusted for his birth.\nThe Puranas then describe the escape of Vasudeva (Krishna’s earthly father) to save his newborn from being destroyed by Kamsa. Leaving the prison where he and Devaki had been confined by the wicked king, Vasudeva escaped with the baby across a river. Once safe in a village the Krishna baby was interchanged with a local baby girl. Kamsa later found the exchanged baby girl and killed her. Oblivious to the exchange of babies, Nanda and Yasoda (the baby girl’s parents) raised Krishna as their own humble cowherd. The day of Krishna’s birth is celebrated as Krishna Janmashtami.\nHebrew Vedas foretell Jesus’ birth\nAs prophesied to Kamsa that a son of Devaki would kill him, the Hebrew sages received prophecies concerning the coming Messiah/Christ. However, these prophecies were received and written down by many prophets, hundreds of years prior to Jesus’ birth. The timeline shows many prophets of the Hebrew Vedas, indicating when their prophecies were revealed and recorded. They foresaw the coming one like a shoot from a dead stump and prophesied his name – Jesus.\nIsaiah recorded another remarkable prophecy concerning the nature of the birth of this coming person. As written:\nTherefore the Lord himself will give you a sign: The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and will call him Immanuel.Isaiah 7:14\nThis puzzled the ancient Hebrews. How could a virgin have a son? That was impossible. However the prophecy predicted this son would be Immanuel, meaning ‘God with us’. If the Most High God, who created the world, was the one to be born then it was conceivable. So the sages and the scribes who copied the Hebrew Vedas dared not remove the prophecy from the Vedas, and there it remained through the centuries, waiting for its fulfillment.\nAround the same time that Isaiah prophesied the virgin birth, another prophet Micah predicted:\nBut you, Bethlehem Ephrathah,Micah 5:2\nthough you are small among the clans of Judah,\nout of you will come for me\none who will be ruler over Israel,\nwhose origins are from of old,\nfrom ancient times.\nFrom Bethlehem, the ancestral town of the great King David, would come the ruler whose origins were ‘from ancient times’ – long before his physical birth.\nBirth of the Christ – Announced by Devas\nFor hundreds of years the Jews/Hebrews waited for these prophecies to happen. Many gave up hope and others forgot about them, but the prophecies remained as silent witnesses anticipating the coming day. Finally, around 5 BC a special messenger brought a puzzling message to a young woman. As Kamsa heard a voice from the sky, this woman received a messenger from heaven, a Deva or angel named Gabriel. The Gospel records:\nIn the sixth month of Elizabeth’s pregnancy, God sent the angel Gabriel to Nazareth, a town in Galilee, 27 to a virgin pledged to be married to a man named Joseph, a descendant of David. The virgin’s name was Mary. 28 The angel went to her and said, “Greetings, you who are highly favored! The Lord is with you.”\n29 Mary was greatly troubled at his words and wondered what kind of greeting this might be. 30 But the angel said to her, “Do not be afraid, Mary; you have found favor with God. 31 You will conceive and give birth to a son, and you are to call him Jesus. 32 He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High. The Lord God will give him the throne of his father David, 33 and he will reign over Jacob’s descendants forever; his kingdom will never end.”\n34 “How will this be,” Mary asked the angel, “since I am a virgin?”\n35 The angel answered, “The Holy Spirit will come on you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. So the holy one to be born will be called the Son of God. 36 Even Elizabeth your relative is going to have a child in her old age, and she who was said to be unable to conceive is in her sixth month. 37 For no word from God will ever fail.”\n38 “I am the Lord’s servant,” Mary answered. “May your word to me be fulfilled.” Then the angel left her.Luke 1:26-38\nNine months after Gabriel’s message, Jesus would be born to Mary the virgin, fulfilling Isaiah’s prophecy. But Micah had prophesied the birth would be in Bethlehem, and Mary lived in Nazareth. Would Micah’s prophecy fail? The Gospel continues:\nIn those days Caesar Augustus issued a decree that a census should be taken of the entire Roman world. 2 (This was the first census that took place while Quirinius was governor of Syria.) 3 And everyone went to their own town to register.\n4 So Joseph also went up from the town of Nazareth in Galilee to Judea, to Bethlehem the town of David, because he belonged to the house and line of David. 5 He went there to register with Mary, who was pledged to be married to him and was expecting a child. 6 While they were there, the time came for the baby to be born, 7 and she gave birth to her firstborn, a son. She wrapped him in cloths and placed him in a manger, because there was no guest room available for them.\n8 And there were shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping watch over their flocks at night. 9 An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. 10 But the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid. I bring you good news that will cause great joy for all the people. 11 Today in the town of David a Savior has been born to you; he is the Messiah, the Lord. 12 This will be a sign to you: You will find a baby wrapped in cloths and lying in a manger.”\n13 Suddenly a great company of the heavenly host appeared with the angel, praising God and saying,\n14 “Glory to God in the highest heaven,\nand on earth peace to those on whom his favor rests.”\n15 When the angels had left them and gone into heaven, the shepherds said to one another, “Let’s go to Bethlehem and see this thing that has happened, which the Lord has told us about.”\n16 So they hurried off and found Mary and Joseph, and the baby, who was lying in the manger. 17 When they had seen him, they spread the word concerning what had been told them about this child, 18 and all who heard it were amazed at what the shepherds said to them. 19 But Mary treasured up all these things and pondered them in her heart. 20 The shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things they had heard and seen, which were just as they had been told.Luke 2:1-20\nThe world’s most powerful person, the Roman Emperor himself, issued an imperial decree causing Mary & Joseph to travel from Nazareth to Bethlehem, arriving just in time for the birth of Jesus. Micah’s prophecy was also fulfilled.\nLike Krishna as a humble cowherd, Jesus was born into lowliness – in the stable where cows and other animals were kept, and he was visited by humble shepherds. Yet the angels or devas of heaven still sung about his birth.\nThreatened by Evil\nAt Krishna’s birth his life was in danger from King Kamsa who felt threatened by his arrival. Likewise, at the moment of Jesus’ birth his life was in danger from the local King Herod. Herod did not want any other King (which is what ‘Christ’ means) threatening his rule. The Gospels explain:\nAfter Jesus was born in Bethlehem in Judea, during the time of King Herod, Magi from the east came to Jerusalem 2 and asked, “Where is the one who has been born king of the Jews? We saw his star when it rose and have come to worship him.”\n3 When King Herod heard this he was disturbed, and all Jerusalem with him. 4 When he had called together all the people’s chief priests and teachers of the law, he asked them where the Messiah was to be born. 5 “In Bethlehem in Judea,” they replied, “for this is what the prophet has written:\n6 “‘But you, Bethlehem, in the land of Judah,\nare by no means least among the rulers of Judah;\nfor out of you will come a ruler\nwho will shepherd my people Israel.”\n7 Then Herod called the Magi secretly and found out from them the exact time the star had appeared. 8 He sent them to Bethlehem and said, “Go and search carefully for the child. As soon as you find him, report to me, so that I too may go and worship him.”\n9 After they had heard the king, they went on their way, and the star they had seen when it rose went ahead of them until it stopped over the place where the child was. 10 When they saw the star, they were overjoyed. 11 On coming to the house, they saw the child with his mother Mary, and they bowed down and worshiped him. Then they opened their treasures and presented him with gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh. 12 And having been warned in a dream not to go back to Herod, they returned to their country by another route.\n13 When they had gone, an angel of the Lord appeared to Joseph in a dream. “Get up,” he said, “take the child and his mother and escape to Egypt. Stay there until I tell you, for Herod is going to search for the child to kill him.”\n14 So he got up, took the child and his mother during the night and left for Egypt, 15 where he stayed until the death of Herod. And so was fulfilled what the Lord had said through the prophet: “Out of Egypt I called my son.”\n16 When Herod realized that he had been outwitted by the Magi, he was furious, and he gave orders to kill all the boys in Bethlehem and its vicinity who were two years old and under, in accordance with the time he had learned from the Magi. 17 Then what was said through the prophet Jeremiah was fulfilled:\n18 “A voice is heard in Ramah,Matthew 2:1-18\nweeping and great mourning,\nRachel weeping for her children\nand refusing to be comforted,\nbecause they are no more.”\nThe births of Jesus and Krishna share much in common. Krishna is remembered as an incarnation of Vishnu. As Logos, Jesus birth was the Incarnation of the Most High God, Creator of the world. Both births were preceded by prophecies, utilized heavenly messengers, and were threatened by evil kings opposed to their coming.\nBut what was the purpose behind the elaborate birth of Jesus? Why had he come? From the beginning of human history, the Most High God declared He would meet our deepest needs. As Krishna came to destroy Kalanemin, Jesus came to destroy his enemy, the one holding us prisoner. We learn how this unfolds, and what it means for us today, as we continue to explore Jesus’ life revealed in the Gospels.", "label": "No"}
{"text": "PROPAGATION OF SOUND IN WATER.\n[Not hitherto published.]\nFKOM the theoretical point of view there is little to distinguish propagation of sound in an unlimited mass of water from the corresponding case of air; of course the velocity is greater (about four times). It is probable that at a great depth the velocity increases, the effect of diminishing compressibility out-weighing increased density.\nAs regards absorption, it would appear that it is likely to be less in water than in air. The viscosity (measured kmematically) is less in water.\nBut the practical questions are largely influenced by the presence of a free surface, which must act as a nearly perfect reflector. So far the case is analogous to that of a fixed wall reflecting sound waves in air; but there is an important difference. In order to imitate the wall in air, we must suppose the image of the source of sound to be exactly similar to the original; but the image of the source of sound reflected from the free surface of water must be taken negatively, viz., in the case of a pure tone with phase altered by 180°. In practice the case of interest is when both source and place of observation are somewhat near the reflecting surface. We must expect phenomena of interference varying with the precise depth below the surface. The analogy is with Lloyd's interference bands in Optics. If we suppose the distance to be travelled very great, the paths of the direct and reflected sounds will be nearly equal. Here the distinction of the two problems comes in.\nFor air and wall the phases of the direct and reflected waves on arrival would be the same, and the effect a maximum. But for the free surface of water the phases would be opposite and the effect approximately zero. This is what happens close to the surface. By going lower down the sound would be recovered. It is impossible to arrive at quantitative results unless all the circumstances are specified—distance, depths, and wave-length. If there are waves upon the surface of the water there is further complication; but in any case the surface acts as a nearly perfect reflector. The analogy is with a rough wall in air.\nThere is also the bottom to be considered. This, too, must act as a reflector in greater or less degree. With a rocky bottom and nearly grazing incidence, the reflection would be nearly perfect. Presumably a muddy or sandy bottom would reflect less. But I imagine that at grazing incidence—as when the distance between source and place of observation is a large multiple of the depth—the reflection would be good. This makes another complication.

{"text": "First hours of life are critical in calf's entire life.\nYou have heard the warning: “What happens in Las Vegas, stays in Las Vegas!!!” Perhaps you have not heard: “What happens in the first 24 hours, impacts the rest of a calf’s life”! Veterinary scientists, while with the USDA experiment station at Clay Center, Nebraska monitored health events and growth performance in a population of range beef calves in order to identify associations of production factors with baby calf passive immune status.\nBlood samples were collected at 24 hours after calving from 263 crossbred calves to determine the amount of passive maternal immunity that had been obtained from colostrum. Colostrum is the first milk produced by a cow upon giving birth. The baby calves were classified with “Inadequate” or “Adequate” Passive Immune status based on that blood sample at 24 hours of age. Growth performance and health events in the study population were monitored from birth to weaning, and after weaning throughout the feedlot phase.\nThe lowest levels of passive immunity were observed among calves that were sick or died prior to weaning. Calves with “inadequate” passive immunity had a 5.4 times greater risk of death prior to weaning, 6.4 times greater risk of being sick during the first 28 days of life, and 3.2 times greater risk of being sick any time prior to weaning when compared to calves with “adequate” passive transfer. Based on 24 hour proteins (most of which are antibodies or immunoglobulins) in the blood, the risk of being sick in the feedlot was also three times greater for “Inadequate” compared to “Adequate” calves. Passive immune status was also indirectly associated with growth rates through its effects on calf health. Sickness during the first 28 days of life was associated with a 35 pound lower expected weaning weight. Respiratory disease in the feedlot resulted in a .09 lb lower expected average daily gain.\nThus, passive immunity obtained from colostrum was an important factor determining the health of calves both pre- and post-weaning, and indirectly influenced calf growth rate during the same periods. Therefore, the cow calf producers can help themselves and the future owners of their calves, by properly growing replacement heifers, providing a good health program for cows and heifers, and providing natural or commercial colostrum replacers to calves that do not receive it in adequate quantities on their own. Remember that most of the transfer of antibodies from colostrum to the calf happens in the first 6 hours. The first day sets the stage for the rest of his life. (Source: Wittum and Perino. 1995.

{"text": "The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in America is pretty much the leader worldwide when it comes to vaccines and declaring that they are safe and necessary. In Europe we do have the European Medicines Agency (EMA) which would appear to be heavily influenced by studies that the CDC carry out or cite.\nI already knew that the CDC owned over 20 patents for vaccines and about 30 other patents including one for a strain of Ebola virus; however I was quite surprised to hear someone say recently that the CDC was run by the armed forces.\nI thought, “Surely not, that has to be wrong”. So I went looking.\nIf one looks at the CDC on Wikipedia one can see that the parent agency is listed as the United States Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS). Seems fine so far, right? Actually, no. There is another body called the Commissioned Corps of the US Public Health Service, they are a 6,500+ strong group of people (military) who can trace their origin back to 1789 and this is from their website:\n“The Commissioned Corps of the U.S. Public Health Service is a team of more than 6,500 full-time, well-trained, highly qualified public health professionals dedicated to delivering the Nation’s public health promotion and disease prevention programs and advancing public health science. As one of America’s seven uniformed services, the Commissioned Corps fills essential public health leadership and service roles within the Nation’s Federal Government agencies and programs. Officers serve their country in communities that are most in need by providing essential health care services to underserved and vulnerable populations.” (Emphasis added).\nFrom this one might be forgiven in thinking that this is an altruistic group of military individuals serving in the third world but it is not, it is within the United States as can be seen by going to the active duty station map. Using the map one can select the agency of interest – CDC in this case – and over 50 jobs are listed in the US.\nThere are many other agencies that this military corps is involved in too, for example, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), National Institute of Health (NIH), US Department of Defense, US Department of Homeland Security, US Marshals Service, even the CIA are mentioned on the drop down bar of the map but are conspicuously missing on the listings.\nThis begs the question “Is the whole of the US deemed an “underserved and vulnerable population” that needs controlling?\nAlso as the CDC owns patents on vaccines and viruses are these being controlled by the armed services? It would appear that this is highly likely.\nGiven that the armed forces are not big into the rights of individuals, free thinking and freedom of expression is it really surprising that we are now facing a push worldwide for mandatory vaccination and total compliance?\nIn general armies expect to be obeyed by the masses, they are not known for their willingness to question their orders or their tolerance of the individual.\nCertainly what we can say is that the CDC is not independent and it is biased. We can also say that it is run as a business as can be seen when we look at the Gardasil vaccine. In this case the Department of Health and Human Services (the CDC’s parent agency) transferred technology it had developed to the pharmaceutical company Merck, which made it possible for them to develop Gardasil, and thus the DHHS became Merck’s business partner. Then the CDC approved the vaccine and the DHHS took a cut of the profits.\nSo do we trust these people when they say vaccines are safe?\nDo your own research and make your own decision based on that research.", "label": "No"}
{"text": "NASA’s spacecraft, Messenger, was launched more than 6 years ago. Although this may not be anything new – for fifteen minutes, the spaceshuttle fired the main engine in order to enter Mercury’s orbit.\nAn image of the planet Mercury, taken from MESSENGER in 2008\n“The Messenger spacecraft went into orbit around Mercury tonight; we can confirm that through the Doppler signals we’ve seen,” declared Eric Finnegan, NASA systems engineer.\nSuch a close encounter with Mercury (the planet closest to the Sun) represents an important milestone, both from an engineering but also scientific point of view. This marks the first local encounter with this small rocky planet since 1975.\nMercury is interesting for astronomers because it is not a gassy planet like Jupiter but a terrestrial one like the Earth. It is however difficult to explore because of the high temperatures on the surface, which is capable of melting lead. It can also be a provider of clues for other rocky orbs outside this solar system.\n“Now that so many new planets are being discovered around stars in other solar systems, we need to know the effects of space weathering on rocky surfaces so we can accurately interpret telescopic and other remote sensing data we obtain from other rocky or dusty worlds,” declared Ann Sprague, a member of the scientific team from the University of Arizona’s Lunar and Planetary Laboratory.\nMessenger (which is actually an acronym – Mercury Surface, Space Environment, Geochemistry and Ranging), started its journey in August 2004, and has been dancing around our planet, around the moon and finally around Mercury ever since. Its main purpose is to prevent it from being attracted by the gravitational pull of the Sun. Messenger has to orbit Mercury in order to complete the information provided by its two previous flybys but also by Mariner 10, back in 1975.\nThis spacecraft will study the magnetic field, the geological history, surface composition as well as other mysteries offered by Mercury. The space shuttle will simply drop on the planet’s surface as soon as it ends its mission.\nThe only images of Mercury available for scientists were those sent by Mariner more than thirty years ago. There was only one side of Mercury shown along with some ground-based surveys and other data regarding Mars and meteorites.\nDuring its journey, Mercury gathered pictures of what its predecessor missed to record, allowing scientists to see as much as 95% of the planet. The unseen areas are mainly at Mercury’s poles but they will probably be covered as well during Messenger’s orbital mission.", "label": "No"}
{"text": "In a fractious world, there is one enemy that has had a unique ability to compel people from all countries to lock arms: poliovirus. For more than 15 years, the World Health Organization (WHO) has coördinated mass- immunization campaigns in an effort to eradicate poliovirus, a goal it hopes attain by the end of this year. If this Global Polio Eradication Initiative succeeds, it will join the smallpox eradication program as one of the greatest medical triumphs in history. So there was a great gasp in 2003 when northern Nigeria broke ranks with the rest of the world and banned the polio vaccine, triggering an outbreak that soon spread to 12 neighboring countries – and illustrating once again how easily the virus can take advantage of any chink in our collective armor. Then again, the Nigerian setback may unintentionally have given the initiative the added fuel that it needs to cross the finish line on time.\nSince its inception, the polio eradication program has reduced the incidence of paralytic polio by 99 percent, from some 350,000 cases a year to fewer than 1,000. As of 2003, the virus was circulating only in Nigeria and five other countries. But in the middle of that year, Muslim clerics in northern Nigeria denounced the vaccine, claiming it contained hormones intended to sterilize girls or that it was contaminated with HIV. By the fall, northern Nigerian politicians and health ministers had banned the immunization campaigns in Kano and two other states – a move seen as a nod to the prestige of the Muslim clerics and a slap at both the West and the country’s Christian president, Olusegun Obasanjo. By year-end, Nigeria had reported more than 355 polio cases, surpassing India and Pakistan for the first time. “Nigeria is a painful example of the potential impact of vaccine refusal,” says Daniel Salmon of Johns Hopkins University’s Bloomberg School of Public Health.\nAs cases continued to mount in Nigeria, scientists confirmed that the virus had hopped a few borders and paralyzed a child in Ghana, which had not had a case of polio in three years. Soon, they found evidence of Nigerian-like polio strains in 11 other sub-Saharan African countries that had been polio-free for at least three years and so had scaled back their own mass-immunization campaigns. “When Nigeria began to export virus, the virus found an easy home,” says WHO epidemiologist David Heymann, who heads the Global Polio Eradication Initiative. “The tragedy of Kano is that Africa now has 89 percent of all paralyzed children.”\nAlthough the eradication program has elaborate plans for combatting outbreaks of the virus, combatting an outbreak of anti-vaccination fever presented a much different challenge. “We worked really hard behind the scenes,” says Heymann, who personally called the governor of Kano state every day for three weeks. The eradication program also encouraged the Organization of the Islamic Conference – which represents 57 states with large Muslim populations, including Nigeria – to issue a resolution in October 2003 that urged members to step up their eradication efforts. And in February 2004, the program arranged for a Nigerian commission to visit polio vaccine manufacturers in (predominantly Muslim) Indonesia, as well as South Africa and India.\nIn July 2004, after three Nigerian government commissions agreed that the polio vaccine was safe, Kano state lifted its ban and agreed to accept vaccine from Indonesia. But the ban had already strained the coffers of the eradication program. Its budget through 2005 is $3 billion, with more than $500 million coming from Rotary International. Heymann estimates that it is still $200 million shy of what’s needed, and he says the Nigerian ban accounts for more than half of that shortfall.\nThere is a silver lining. “What Kano has done is sensitized a whole new series of partners in eradication,” says Heymann. “In the long term, it’s brought solidarity among Islamic countries.” This is especially important given that four of the countries outside of Nigeria with the biggest polio problems are Pakistan, India, Afghanistan, and Egypt. And because of the setback, 25 African nations agreed to launch the largest immunization campaign ever staged, setting out four months ago to immunize 80 million children. In October 2004, at the start of that campaign, Heymann projected that polio cases would start to decrease by January. If WHO finds the funding, he says, it will say good-bye to polio by the end of this year, as planned.\nEven if there are no cases of polio by year’s end, several obstacles remain. One revives the old conflict between Albert Sabin and Jonas Salk, the polio vaccine pioneers who dueled each other for decades. The simple-to-use oral vaccine that is the cornerstone of the eradication program contains live, weakened strains of poliovirus that occasionally mutate and regain their ability to cause disease. Developed by Sabin, this vaccine will continue to reintroduce poliovirus to the human population as long as it remains in use. The Salk vaccine, which uses killed virus, does not have this drawback, but it must be injected, and that makes it more difficult and costly to deliver. Although plans call for the world to abandon the live vaccine once wild poliovirus stops spreading, timing this precisely will be tricky and may require strategic use of the killed vaccine.\nFor now, the biggest challenge is not one of strategy. It is one of will. If humans wanted to stop the circulation of wild poliovirus, they could. Yet in a tragic irony, because vaccines work so well, many people discount their value. Why get a vaccine for polio, measles, or diphtheria if you rarely, if ever, see those diseases in your community? This ambivalence fertilizes antivaccination movements, which recently have swept through not just Nigeria but also the United States, Europe, and Australia. In each case, vaccine-preventable diseases have surged. It’s a bizarre dilemma. Medical science has a means to control nature, but in the final analysis, human nature decides our fate.", "label": "No"}
{"text": "Posted by Clark Bates\nJune 1, 2017\nContinuing this series of articles and videos in honor of the 500th anniversary of the Protestant Reformation, we turn our attention to the papacy and Matthew 16:18-19. To best understand the importance of this passage of Scripture to the Roman Catholic Church and papal authority let us return to the edict of the First Vatican Council:\nChapter 1 On the institution of the apostolic primacy in blessed Peter\n- We teach and declare that, according to the gospel evidence, a primacy of jurisdiction over the whole church of God was immediately and directly promised to the blessed apostle Peter and conferred on him by Christ the lord.\n- It was to Simon alone, to whom he had already said you shall be called Cephas, that the Lord, after his confession, you are the Christ, the son of the living God, spoke these words:\n“Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jona. For flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my Father who is in heaven.”\n“And I tell you, you are Peter, and on this rock, I will build my church, and the gates of the underworld shall not prevail against it. I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.”\n- And it was to Peter alone that Jesus, after his resurrection, confided the jurisdiction of supreme pastor and ruler of his whole fold, saying:\n“Feed my lambs, feed my sheep.”\n- To this absolutely manifest teaching of the sacred scriptures, as it has always been understood by the catholic church, are clearly opposed the distorted opinions of those who misrepresent the form of government which Christ the lord established in his church and deny that Peter, in preference to the rest of the apostles, taken singly or collectively, was endowed by Christ with a true and proper primacy of jurisdiction.\n- The same may be said of those who assert that this primacy was not conferred immediately and directly on blessed Peter himself, but rather on the church, and that it was through the church that it was transmitted to him in his capacity as her minister.\n- Therefore, if anyone says that blessed Peter the apostle was not appointed by Christ the lord as prince of all the apostles and visible head of the whole church militant; or that it was a primacy of honour only and not one of true and proper jurisdiction that he directly and immediately received from our lord Jesus Christ himself:\nlet him be anathema.\nChapter 2. On the permanence of the primacy of blessed Peter in the Roman pontiffs\n- That which our lord Jesus Christ, the prince of shepherds and great shepherd of the sheep, established in the blessed apostle Peter, for the continual salvation and permanent benefit of the church, must of necessity remain forever, by Christ’s authority, in the church which, founded as it is upon a rock, will stand firm until the end of time.\n- For no one can be in doubt, indeed it was known in every age that the holy and most blessed Peter, prince and head of the apostles, the pillar of faith and the foundation of the catholic church, received the keys of the kingdom from our lord Jesus Christ, the saviour and redeemer of the human race, and that to this day and forever he lives and presides and exercises judgment in his successors the bishops of the holy Roman see, which he founded and consecrated with his blood.\n- Therefore, whoever succeeds to the chair of Peter obtains by the institution of Christ himself, the primacy of Peter over the whole church. So, what the truth has ordained stands firm, and blessed Peter perseveres in the rock-like strength he was granted, and does not abandon that guidance of the church which he once received.\n- For this reason, it has always been necessary for every church–that is to say the faithful throughout the world–to be in agreement with the Roman church because of its more effective leadership. In consequence of being joined, as members to head, with that see, from which the rights of sacred communion flow to all, they will grow together into the structure of a single body.\n- Therefore, if anyone says that it is not by the institution of Christ the lord himself (that is to say, by divine law) that blessed Peter should have perpetual successors in the primacy over the whole church; or that the Roman pontiff is not the successor of blessed Peter in this primacy:\nlet him be anathema.\nAs can be seen through the dogmatic decree of the Roman Catholic Church, the entirety of papal authority rests on two pillars:\n- The teaching of Scripture, particularly Matthew 16:18-19, and\n- That this interpretation was the historical interpretation of the church from its inception\nIn order to properly assess these claims, we must address each individually and on its own merits. Beginning with Scripture, we read in Matthew 16:18-19:\n18 And I tell you, you are Peter, and on this rock, I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. 19 I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.”\nIt should at least be acknowledged that even among Protestants, this passage of Scripture has garnered multiple interpretations. Before conceding the need for a magisterial proclamation however, we must examine the passage in light of both its context and the greater teaching of Scripture.\nIf we allow the context of Matthew 16 to teach us anything about the verses in question it can reveal some insight into the focal point of chapter. The Scripture opens with the Jewish leaders demanding that Jesus show them a sign to prove both his authority and identity (1-4), followed by a brief rebuke by the Lord against his disciples, reminding them of the miraculous things he has already done (5-12), suggesting that they already know who he is. This then opens the door to the discourse between Jesus, Peter, and the other disciples regarding “whom do others say that I am” (13-20).\nClearly, what creates the difficulty with this portion of Scripture is how to identify the “rock” of v.18 upon which the church would be built. Some have posited the rock as being the confession made by Peter, namely that Jesus is the Messiah. Others find it more reasonable to see the rock as Jesus himself. While others still, view the rock as Peter himself, but without the Roman Catholic succession.\nSo What is the Rock?\nIn defense of the viewpoint identifying the “rock” of Matthew 16 as Jesus, is Matthew 7:24 in which the author uses the parallel phraseology:\n24 “Everyone then who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock.”\nThe context of Matthew 7 being the famous parable of the wise man building his house in contrast with the foolish man. The rock upon which the wise man builds his house is clearly not the apostle Peter, but the Lord Jesus Christ. In addition, it must be acknowledged that a first century Jew such as Peter would not see himself as the “rock” as Rome sees it. A short survey of the Hebrew Scriptures testifies to this. “Throughout the Old Testament, the God of Israel is often called “rock” (Deut 32: 4, 15, 18, 30; 1 Sam 2:2, 22:32, 47; Ps 18:31, 19:14, 28:1, 42:9, 89:26; Isa 30:29). In the whole story of God’s self-revelation through His relationship with Israel, He proved that He was their provider and caretaker – the rock of their faith.” In addition, as has already been mentioned, the thrust of Matthew 16 is not the identity of Peter, but of Jesus.\nIn defense of the rock being the confession made by Peter, is largely the interpretation of St. Augustine, discussed in a previous video. According to Augustine,\n“In Peter, Rocky, we see our attention drawn to the rock. Now the apostle Paul says about the former people, ‘They drank from the spiritual rock that was following them; but the rock was Christ’ (1 Cor 10:4). So this disciple is called Rocky from the rock, like Christian from Christ…Why have I wanted to make this little introduction? In order to suggest to you that in Peter the Church is to be recognized. Christ, you see, built his Church not on a man but on Peter’s confession. What is Peter’s confession? ‘You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.’ There’s the rock for you, there’s the foundation, there’s where the Church has been built, which the gates of the underworld cannot conquer.”\nAnd while it is certainly difficult to be at odds with men of such stature, it is my position that the most faithful reading of Matthew is the identity of the “rock” with the apostle Peter himself.\nPeter as the Rock\nNow before anyone accuses me of blasphemy or swimming the Tiber you must allow me to explain. It is an undeniable fact of grammar that there is a clear wordplay being utilized by our Lord. In the Greek, it appears thus:\n18 κἀγὼ δέ σοι λέγω ὅτι σὺ εἶ Πέτρος (Peter), καὶ ἐπὶ ταύτῃ τῇ πέτρᾳ (rock) οἰκοδομήσω μου τὴν ἐκκλησίαν, καὶ πύλαι ᾅδου οὐ κατισχύσουσιν αὐτῆς·\nSimon’s nickname is a male derivative of the Greek word for rock. There is no place here for silly diversions about there being a difference between “little pebble” and “big stone”, for such nuances are foreign to this text. The simple truth is that were the Lord trying to distinguish the “rock” from the apostle he could have used the Greek word λιθος which also means “stone”. The use of πετρα/Πετρος should not be ignored. Another advantage to this understanding of Matthew is that it has been the consistent interpretation of the church for several centuries following the apostles.\nNeither should it be ignored that Peter held a place of prominence within the apostolic twelve. In all of the Synoptic Gospels, Peter is named first in the lists of the apostles (Matt 10:2-4; Mark 3:16-19; Luke 6:14-16), and is included among the innermost circle of Jesus’ apostles; even among this band, though, Peter is listed first (Matt 17: 1-8; 26:37; Mark 5: 37; 9:2-8; Luke 9: 28-26; 13:3). It is Peter who is the leading character in the story of the miraculous catch (Luke 5: 1-11). It is Peter who tries to imitate Jesus by walking on water (Matt 14:28). It is Peter who is called “blessed” for confessing that Jesus is the Christ (Matt 16:17), and it is Peter who is reprimanded for rebuking Jesus when the latter spoke of his impending death (Matt 16:23). It is Peter who cuts off Malchus’ ear in order to defend Jesus (John 18:10); it is Peter who is rebuked for doing so (John 18:11). It is Peter who denies Jesus three times (Matt 26:69-75; Mark 14:66-72; Luke 22:55-62; John 18:16-18, 25-27); it is Peter who receives a special commission from the post-resurrected Jesus (John 21:15-18). All four of the gospel writers, then, seem to attribute a unique position to Peter. What’s more, Peter is also featured prominently in the first half of Acts. He guides the process of choosing Matthias as a replacement for Judas (Acts 1:15-26); he functions as a preacher within the Jerusalem Church and as a missionary to those who are outside (Acts 2:14-36; 3:12-26; 4:8-12; 5:29-32; 10:34-43); he is a miracle worker and (as in the case of Paul) some of his miracles resemble that of Jesus (Acts 3:1-10; 5:1-11, 15; 9:32-42); he is the object of divine care and receives visionary or heavenly guidance (Acts 5:17-21; 10:9-48; 12:6-11); and he is a spokesperson for the Jerusalem community (Acts 8:14-25; 11:1-18; 15:7-11).\nWhile it might be easy to dismiss this prominence as being directly contingent to the brashness of Peter’s character, this would be dismissive of the purposes of the Gospel authors as well. If we examine the text objectively, and the story of the apostles that follows, it becomes quite clear that it is Peter who reveals the kingdom to the world (Acts 2:14-36). It is Peter who first administers the Gospel to the Gentiles (Acts 10), and it is Peter that becomes a key figure in the spread of the faith to the Diaspora (1/2 Peter). However, the fact that this exegesis points to Peter as the πέτρα in no way endorses a Roman Catholic understanding of Peter’s successors. In fact, the text states nothing about Peter’s successor, papal infallibility, or exclusive authority over the Church.\nWhat About Apostolic Succession?\nIn Matthew 16:19 our Lord tells Peter that he will give him the keys of the kingdom. As we have seen from the First Vatican Council, Rome interprets this to mean the authority of the church, both for the apostle and for all his successors. However, there is no clear answer as to when these keys are given. In fact, the power of these keys (i.e. to bind and loose on earth and in heaven) is then given by the Lord to all the apostles in Matthew 18:18. It does not follow that the Lord would give this singular authority to Peter in 16:19 and then reverse that decision to give it to all apostles in 18:18. The equality of authority among the twelve relates completely with the teachings of Jesus that masters are not greater than their servants (John 13), and the words of the apostle Paul in Eph. 2:19-22:\n19 So then you are no longer strangers and aliens, but you are fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God, 20 built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus himself being the cornerstone,21 in whom the whole structure, being joined together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord. 22 In him you also are being built together into a dwelling place for God by the Spirit.\nWhile the teaching of Scripture clearly reveals a special role for the apostle, it says nothing of a perpetual monarchical bishopric to follow. Certainly, the apostles appointed elders, deacons, and bishops in the local churches that they founded (1 Tim. 1:1-5; 3:1-13; 5:17-21; 2 Tim. 4:1-5; Tit. 1:5-9), but there is no evidence for the succession of the apostolic office. No student of the apostle Paul is said to assume his apostolic office after his death, neither is there any indication of a singular, pre-eminent bishop in Rome in the century that follows. What this suggests, quite forcefully, is that the author of Matthew knows nothing of a perpetual office of Peter.\nAccording to the First Vatican Council (and reaffirmed by the Second Vatican Council), papal authority finds its origin in the “gospel evidence” and it having “always been understood by the catholic church”. In this article, we have seen that the gospel evidence in support of perpetual Petrine authority over the church is considerably lacking. To suggest otherwise is to limit one’s understanding to the verses in isolation and to come to the text with a pre-determined solution. When examined objectively, we see that Peter’s privilege of being the “rock” is historically unrepeatable. Understood in its original sense, Jesus assigns the apostle a unique and unrepeatable position in the spiritual edifice of God. On the one hand, the verse speaks of the ἐκκλησία, a fellowship that is to be built in the future, without any time limit being given; on the other hand, the verse speaks about Peter, a human person, whose earthly activity will necessarily be limited by his death. Just as Peter’s feeding of the lambs in John 21:16ff is limited by his martyrdom, so is Peter’s status as “rock” of the Church limited by his earthly demise.\nHaving dealt with the gospel evidence of papal authority, the next article will address the historical testimony of the church in regards to Roman pre-eminance.\n http://www.papalencyclicals.net/Councils/ecum20.htm#Chapter 1 On the institution of the apostolic primacy in blessed Peter\n Chrys C.

The rich Iberian tradition of stringed instruments—guitar and guitarlike instruments, lute, mandolin, harp, and violin—spread rapidly through all of Latin America. Yet in practice these instruments respond to different aesthetic outlooks. In the Andean area, for example, the common charango is a lutelike or guitarlike instrument of five courses of multiple strings, frequently with a body made of an armadillo shell; it sounds quite differently among Indians, who use thin metal strings, and mestizos, who use nylon strings. The Spanish classical guitar and the Portuguese viola (a guitarlike instrument with five courses of double strings, as a rule) have become the characteristic folk instruments of Hispanic America and Brazil, respectively. The berimbau, a type of musical bow, probably of African origin, became the foundation of music for the Brazilian capoeira. Combinations of instruments in ensemble performance frequently integrate the tri-ethnic heritage, as, for example, in the Guatemalan ensemble of chirimía, marimba (of African origin), and Mayan drum (tun or tunkul).\nAs mentioned above, Indian cultures throughout Latin America created numerous wind instruments, many of them flutes. Most of the flutes are single-pipe vertical flutes with either whistle-type (e.g., the pincollos of the Inca) or end-notched (e.g., the Andean quena) mouthpieces. Whistles and ocarinas are also found throughout Latin America. Folk and popular music traditions continue to use numerous types of panpipes (for example, the sicuris of the Aymara people, the antaras of the Quechua, and the zampoña of mestizo Andean musicians), with varying numbers of pipes in single or double rows. (See flute for more-detailed descriptions of vertical flutes, ocarinas, whistles, and panpipes.) Natural trumpets (such as the clarín of indigenous Peruvians and the trutruka of the Mapuche of Argentina and Chile) also represent another native contribution to contemporary instrumentation.\nThroughout the colonial period, European influences continued to be felt as more instruments and ensembles were introduced to Latin America. Single- and double-reed woodwinds—for example, the chirimía (a Spanish folk oboe)—appear in many countries and in various ensemble combinations. Military-style brass bands became popular in the 19th century and developed into the common town band (banda del pueblo) used for civic occasions. Brass instruments and woodwinds are incorporated into various band arrangements among mestizo and Indian communities (as, for example, in the fiestas of the Purépecha of Michoacán, Mexico), as well as in a wide array of urban popular dance music. The European accordion, introduced in the second half of the 19th century, became an authentic folk and popular instrument in many Latin American and Caribbean genres, among them the Texan-Mexican conjunto, the Mexican norteño polka, the Colombian vallenato, the Brazilian baião and forró, and the Argentine cuarteto. The button accordion known as the bandoneón is one of the primary instruments of the tango of Argentina and Uruguay.\nLatin American music is particularly characterized by its prominent use of percussion instruments. Each of the major traditions contributed percussion instruments that remained in common use. The indigenous cultures had slit drums, single-headed small drums, cup-shaped ceramic drums, double-headed drums (e.g., bombos), and a great variety of shaken rattles (maracas), scrapers, and stamping tubes.\nInstruments of African derivation constitute the largest group of percussion instruments in Latin American use. Afro-Cuban religious music retains the batá drums of the Yoruba of Nigeria, as well as several types and sizes of conga drums (including the quinto drum of the rumba) and the larger tumbadora. In most Afro-Caribbean and Afro-Latin American traditional religions, drums are considered sacred instruments and undergo a rite of passage (“baptism”) to sacralize them. Conga-type drums (cone-shaped) and barrel-shaped drums are found with regional names in Haiti, the Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico, Venezuela, Colombia, Peru, and Brazil. Other typical drums include certain friction drums used in various folk and popular dance genres (e.g., Brazilian cuíca, Venezuelan furruco) and the bongos (two joined small drums of different sizes) of Cuba and Puerto Rico.\nMany other percussion instruments are also of African origin. A large number of scrapers were adapted to regional use, including the Cuban güiro, Colombian carrasca, Brazilian reco-reco, and many others. These join with bells, stamping tubes, wood blocks, claves (hardwood sticks struck together), and various types of rattles to form part of numerous ensembles. A large and deep-sounding version of the African mbira or sansa (“thumb piano”) is found in the Caribbean, where it is known as the marímbula. The marimba of southern Mexico, Guatemala, and other Central American countries, as well as the Pacific coastal region of Colombia, is of African origin and fulfills a solo or accompaniment function in specific local genres.\nThe most widespread European-derived percussion instruments are the bass drum, the snare drum, and various types of tambourines, such as the Brazilian adufo and the pandereta (both without jingles); the pandereta is especially significant in the Puerto Rican plena, a narrative song genre. The pipe and tabor combination in indigenous music making frequently consists of a large European type of bass drum and a small flute of Indian derivation.\nThe genres of Latin American and Caribbean urban popular music that developed in the 20th century incorporated musical instruments of all three traditions, most often European string, woodwind, brass, and keyboard melodic instruments supported by Indian or African-derived harmonic and rhythmic instruments.Gerard Béhague The Editors of Encyclopaedia Britannica\nLearn More in these related Britannica articles:\nMexico, country of southern North America and the third largest country in Latin America, after Brazil and Argentina.

{"text": "The Book of Acts: Part one of a 12 article Series (Chapter 1-12)\nIf one is reading through the bible chapters 1-12, and in whatever time period as his or her goal might be, most will read right past the context within the content these chapters found in Acts. One’s initial conclusion would be…it is all about the Apostle Peter coming out of his pre-crucifixion shyness. Not even close.\nActs comes in two parts: Part one is Apostle Peter centered on the original church. Part two is centered on Saul becoming Paul who becomes the missionary church builder for Gentiles of the near east and the northern Mediterranean area. This is the surface read through the bible conclusion. We will write about the facts, history and issues behind the rather obvious…Peter, chapters 1 -12 and Paul, chapters 13 – 28. It is fascinating as most will conclude in this series s/he did not know. In Acts we also read a bit about Mary however this is not a series of articles about the nostalgic Peter, Paul, and Mary of the 1960s music fameJ.\nActs, just as was the Book of Luke is written to someone by the name Theophilus. This is someone close to Luke or with whom he is quite acquainted. Theophilus means “Friend of God.” This name in and of itself may suggest a secondary reason for the writing of Luke’s Books. Luke may be writing to the general population of new Christian churches and believers identifying them as “friends of God.” Whatever it is we do not hear of this word or name being used again in the Bible.\nActs 1; 1 & 2 identify the context of this book. Luke specifically points out to Theophilus that he expressed in his first letter (book of Luke) to him that he has dealt with all that Jesus began to do and teach. The word “all” in the above verse is the Greek word pas. PAS means to exclude nothing according to both Strong and Thayer dictionaries. It doesn’t mean is that everything Jesus did while on earth is recorded in Luke and Acts. It is written AS CONCERNING ALL THINGS JESUS DID WHILE ON EARTH. It is what Jesus taught and new believers should exemplify; the standards by which we are to live or the “whole” of our denomination called Christianity. If we believe it means “to BE and LIVE these standards.” Easily put…Luke and Acts set our goals of life as Christians, not the world. It isn’t a WWJD (What Would Jesus Do) but WDJD (What Did Jesus Do).\nHebrews 10:25 underscores this WDJD attitude and practice. It reads: “not forsaking our own assembling [i.e. the church] together, as the custom of some is, but exhorting one another; and so much the more, as ye see the day drawing nigh.” NOT forsaking our own assembling together. This is standard #1 for the church. Egkataleipō (forsake) is very specific and is the absolute-tense in the Greek. It means to NOT miss gathering with other believers; do not abandon.\nHowever we must also remember that the same bible instructs us in Colossians 2:16… Let no man therefore judge you in meat or drink, or in respect to a holy day or the new moon or the Sabbath days. This means Be-Livers can meet anytime, anywhere but do not forsake meeting with fellow believers. Keep Acts 1, Hebrews 10, and Colossians 2 in context as they totally relate to the same thing; us as be-livers. This gives us a very clear picture of what God expects in exchange for HIS salvation package.\nNote in the Hebrew 10:25 passage where it reads: [ESV] “…as we see the (end) Day drawing nigh.” How can one know the end days are drawing night? This too is explained in the bible with hints galore in today’s news casts from around the world. Even telecasts can be seen as events unfold in real time. Doesn’t it appear at all odd that God always knew the day was coming when we can be informed simultaneously with live news from any corner of the earth? If we study the Bible we will see these “hints” of end time drawing nigh. If we remain ignorant then guess who is to blame for not knowing yet alone not understanding the signs of the times [Matthew 24:3-31]?\n- Let no man therefore judge you in meat or drink, or in respect to a holy day or the new moon or the Sabbath days; (Colossians)\n- Forsake not the gathering together with other be-livers; (Hebrews)\n- Even more so as we move even closer to the end time. (Matthew)\nIt should be a simple reminder but only to those who are already students of the Bible…The Book of Acts picks up right where the Book of Luke ends. Somehow the Book of John got between them. They were once one book called Luke-Acts. Luke’s Gospel describes only the beginning of Jesus’ work while on earth while he was present on earth. Acts describes the continuation of the Gospel and the work of Jesus through the Holy Spirit and continues to our present day.\nIn the Book of Acts Jesus, through the Holy Spirit, instructs the apostles regarding what to do in His absence. In Luke Jesus gives direct instructions to the disciples and people around him.\nEven walking day and night with Jesus after three years on earth, the disciples (Apostles) still asked a dumb question of Jesus just prior to Jesus ascent into heaven. Acts 1:6…“Lord, will you [now] at this time restore the Kingdom of Israel?” Restore the Kingdom of Israel???? Jesus simply replies that it is not for them to know the time of the restoration of Israel. This statement alone should assure us it will happen, but not then. It is both eminent and imminent.\nWhen Jesus ascends into heaven “to prepare a place for be-livers,” the Holy Spirit is not yet on earth in indwelling men. This begins at Pentecost ten days later.

The most important consequence of sleep deprivation is seen on brain function. Individuals with sleep deprivation fail to learn tasks properly as a result of memory disturbance, but also see disturbances of mood and behaviour with hyperactivity, irritability and impairments in attention and concentration.\nSo, a good night’s sleep is vital for body and brain to work at their best during the day.\nThe Challenger space shuttle disaster, the Chernobyl nuclear meltdown, and the 1989 Exxon oil spill were all caused to some extent by sleep deprivation.", "label": "No"}

In semiarid ecosystems, patterns in vegetation reflect water stress levels and how these ecosystems might respond to future changes. Another striking pattern in the African savanna is the regular arrangement of termite mounds. This pattern arises from intraspecies competition and results in an optimal packing of termite mounds across the landscape. Mathematical models developed by Tarnita and her team suggest that the spatial arrangement of the mounds makes the savanna ecosystem more likely to withstand and recover from periods of drought.\nThis talk is from a 2015 Holiday Lecture Series, Patterns and Processes in Ecology.\nbiomass, catastrophic collapse, colony, competition, ecological resilience, hysteresis, precipitation, vegetation", "label": "No"}
{"text": "Investigation of field - qualitative approach. A mode of research in the social sciences field research is understood as the systematic analysis of problems in reality, in order to either describe them, interpret them, understand their nature and factors constituents, explain its causes and effects, or predict its occurrence, making use of known characteristic of any paradigms or approaches to research methods or in development. Another feature of the field investigation is that interest data are collected directly from reality. This type of modality of research in the social sciences, can be inserted in the qualitative approach, and hence will have an interpretative descriptive perspective that goes in line with the epistemological concept of the constructivist paradigm. In this order of ideas, Perez Serrano (1988) defines qualitative research such as: an active, systematic and rigorous process of directed inquiry, in the which decisions about the searchable, as long as you're in the field subject of study, (p. 46). For its part, Wittrock (1989) proposes that in qualitative research, researchers believe that humans create significant interpretations of the physical and conceptual objects that surround them in their environment and act at a time of such interpretations, which allows thorough study of all the activities of a group of people. A definition provided by Denzin and Lincoln (1994), cited by Rodriguez, Gil and Garcia in 1999, emphasizes that qualitative research is multimetodica on the approach, involves an interpretive, naturalistic approach towards their object of study. This means that qualitative researchers study reality in its natural context, as it happens, trying to interpret phenomena according to the meanings that have for the people involved in the study. For the author of this article defines qualitative research as a process of inquiry through which you try to identify the nature deep realities constructed by the subjects involved in the study, through the description of the complex events that occur in the interaction as natural environment or context of occurrence.", "label": "No"}
{"text": "Assessing property boundaries is both an art and a science.\nDisputes regarding property boundaries can arise for a number of reasons. Properties can be difficult to survey. Rough terrain and human error may lead to miscalculation. Older boundaries may have been determined with poor instrumentation.\nOne common boundary-related problem occurs when a gap of land–known in the surveying industry as a hiatus–is found between properties and does not belong to either party. These gaps, as well as boundary overlaps, tend to occur when properties are resurveyed and discrepancies are found in either a subsequent survey (the junior survey) or with the original survey (the senior survey).\nThe federal courts have settled many property boundary disputes. Over time, established procedures have evolved for resolving these discrepancies.\nIn U.S. v. Weyerhaeuser Company (1967), the 9th Circuit Court decided that discrepancies in surveys did not matter and that the original monuments– the permanently placed survey markers in the ground–marked the boundary, and any resulting hiatus was deemed public land. The courts have consistently determined that hiatus land shall remain in the public domain.\nCases regarding overlaps are more complicated. Courts have consistently said that when two officially accepted surveys conflict, and the result is an overlap, the survey that is senior in time takes precedent.\nWhen it comes to court cases involving property rights, the concept of “first in time, first in right” is firmly established. In Wirth v. Branson (1878), the U.S. Supreme Court made it clear that once a property had been patented (title of ownership confirmed by the government) the government cannot convey that land to any second party.\nThe information contained in this article is educational and intended for informational purposes only.

{"text": "Author: Ian D. Young\nEdition: First (reissued)\nPublisher: Oxford University Press\nIan Young's textbook aims to review the basic genetic principles and relevant genetic diseases covered during the study of medical genetics by medical and biomedical science students. The book successfully achieves that aim, presenting the information in a logical order so that the concepts that often confuse students are made easy to understand.\nThe first few chapters act as a review of the basics of genetics, including transcription and translation, mitosis and meiosis and a summary of mutations and chromosome rearrangements. These chapters seem to be intended for revision purposes rather than as an introduction to the subject, and serve as a helpful reminder of what students may have forgotten from their first year.\nYoung then goes on to explain simple Mendelian inheritance, including how genes are identified and the inheritance of complex disorders. After the basics have been introduced, the book reviews some of the most medically important areas of genetics, including cancer, before going on to the current and future treatment of genetic disorders. The final chapters are primarily designed for medical students, as they describe the clinical skills needed in medical genetics.\nUnlike many genetics textbooks, Medical Genetics is relatively short and explains concepts in a concise and informative manner, with good use of diagrams to clarify the points made. Many textbooks have questions at the end of each chapter, but the multiple-choice questions presented here offer a particularly simple but effective way of checking the reader's knowledge. The reading list at the end of each chapter consists of only a few, well-chosen papers, thus allowing the student to easily access the most relevant information on the topic.\nOne of the best aspects of this textbook is its use of case studies and landmark papers that bring the text to life and allow the reader to understand more about a particular disease or the importance of a specific discovery. Some of the more interesting case studies include famous people who may have had genetic disorders: for example Frederic Chopin, who is thought to have suffered from cystic fibrosis.\nThis textbook offers a successful review of the basics of medical genetics. Some prior knowledge would be useful when reading it, but it makes a great revision tool, as the basic concepts are summarised clearly and effectively.\nThe book's overall layout and style help the reader to understand fully concepts that are often challenging when they are first introduced.\nWho is it for? Biomedical sciences and genetics undergraduates, and medical students.\nPresentation: Clear and informative, with case studies throughout the text and multiple-choice questions at the end of each chapter.\nWould you recommend it? Yes, mainly to medical students and genetics undergraduates in their second or final year.", "label": "No"}
{"text": "Ramsay MacDonald (Dictionary of World Biography: Twentieth Century)\nArticle abstract: The most significant figure in the development of the Labour Party, MacDonald guided it through his voluminous political writings, his organizational acumen and skills, and his actions as prime minister of its first two governments. The party became in practice more reformist than Socialist. It grew as a broad-based party aspiring to govern rather than a small pressure group within Parliament; it tapped trade union strength but rebuffed trade union control.\nJames Ramsay MacDonald was born on October 12, 1866, in the small fishing village of Lossiemouth, in Morayshire, Scotland, the illegitimate son of a ploughman and a farm servant. His mother, Anne Ramsay, a determined but warmhearted woman, never married and supported herself and her son as a seamstress. Influenced by an exciting schoolteacher, MacDonald became a pupil-teacher for four years (1881-1885), developing skills in analysis, speaking, leadership, and organization in his teens. Because class distinctions were of less significance in the Scottish Highlands, MacDonald was rising on his own merits. As a young man, he had already developed both his romantic and pragmatic tendencies, had an inquiring mind (he always loved geology and biology and once thought of becoming a chemist), and had become a local public speaker. He was impressive physically: handsome with wavy hair (and he was soon to wear a mustache), tall and trim, with a...\n(The entire section is 2828 words.)\nWant to Read More?\nSubscribe now to read the rest of this article.

{"text": "E. P. Thompson\n|Born||Edward Palmer Thompson\n3 February 1924\nOxford, United Kingdom\n|Died|| (aged 69)\nWorcester, United Kingdom\n|Alma mater||Corpus Christi College, Cambridge|\n|Occupation||Historian, writer, socialist, campaign|\n|Spouse(s)||Dorothy Thompson (1948–1993; his death)|\nEdward Palmer Thompson (3 February 1924 – 28 August 1993), usually cited as E. P. Thompson, was a British historian, writer, socialist and peace campaigner. He is probably best known today for his historical work on the British radical movements in the late 18th and early 19th centuries, in particular The Making of the English Working Class (1963). He also published influential biographies of William Morris (1955) and (posthumously) William Blake (1993) and was a prolific journalist and essayist. He also published the novel The Sykaos Papers and a collection of poetry. His work is considered to have been among the most important contributions to labour history and social history in the latter twentieth-century, with a global impact, including on scholarship in Asia and Africa.\nThompson was one of the principal intellectuals of the Communist Party in Great Britain. Although he left the party in 1956 over the Soviet invasion of Hungary, he nevertheless remained a \"historian in the Marxist tradition\", calling for a rebellion against Stalinism as a prerequisite for the restoration of communists' \"confidence in our own revolutionary perspectives\". Thompson played a key role in the first New Left in Britain in the late 1950s. He was a vociferous left-wing socialist critic of the Labour governments of 1964–70 and 1974–79, and an early and constant supporter of the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament, becoming during the 1980s the leading intellectual light of the movement against nuclear weapons in Europe.\n- 1 Early life\n- 2 Career\n- 3 Personal life\n- 4 Criticism\n- 5 Key works\n- 6 See also\n- 7 References\n- 8 Further reading\n- 9 External links\nE.P. Thompson was born in Oxford to Methodist missionary parents: His father, Edward John Thompson (1886–1946) was a poet and admirer of the Nobel Prize–winning poet Tagore. His older brother was William Frank Thompson (1919–1944), a British officer in World War II, who was captured and shot aiding the Bulgarian anti-fascist partisans.\nThompson attended two independent schools, The Dragon School in Oxford and Kingswood School in Bath. Like many he left school in 1941 to fight in World War II. He served in a tank unit in the Italian campaign, including at the last battle of Cassino.\nAfter his military service, he studied at Corpus Christi College at the University of Cambridge, where he joined the Communist Party of Great Britain. In 1946, E.P. Thompson formed the Communist Party Historians Group with Christopher Hill, Eric Hobsbawm, Rodney Hilton, Dona Torr and others. In 1952 they launched the influential journal Past and Present.\nThompson's first major work of scholarship was his biography of William Morris, written while he was a member of the Communist Party. Subtitled From Romantic to Revolutionary, it was part of an effort by the Communist Party Historians' Group, inspired by Torr, to emphasise the domestic roots of Marxism in Britain at a time when the Communist Party was under attack for always following the Moscow line. It was also an attempt to take Morris back from the critics who for more than 50 years had emphasised his art and downplayed his politics.\nAlthough Morris's political work is well to the fore, Thompson also used his literary talents to comment on aspects of Morris's work, such as his early Romantic poetry, which had previously received relatively little consideration. As Thompson noted in his preface to the second edition (1976), the first edition (1955) appears to have received relatively little attention from the literary establishment because of its then-unfashionable Marxist point of view. However, the somewhat rewritten second edition was much better received.\nThe first New Left\nAfter Nikita Khrushchev's \"secret speech\" to the 20th Congress of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union in 1956, which revealed that the Soviet party leadership had long been aware of Stalin's crimes, Thompson (with John Saville and others) started a dissident publication inside the CP, called The Reasoner. Six months later, he and most of his comrades left the party in disgust at the Soviet invasion of Hungary.\nBut Thompson remained what he called a \"socialist humanist\". With Saville and others, he set up the New Reasoner, a journal that sought to develop a democratic socialist alternative to what its editors considered the ossified official Marxism of the Communist and Trotskyist parties and the managerialist cold war social democracy of the Labour Party and its international allies. The New Reasoner was the most important organ of what became known as the \"New Left\", an informal movement of dissident leftists closely associated with the nascent movement for nuclear disarmament in the late 1950s and early 1960s.\nThe New Reasoner combined with the Universities and Left Review to form New Left Review in 1960, though Thompson and others fell out with the group around Perry Anderson who took over the journal in 1962. The fashion ever since has been to describe the Thompson et al. New Left as \"the first New Left\" and the Anderson et al. group, which by 1968 had embraced Tariq Ali and various Trotskyists, as the second.\nThompson subsequently allied himself with the annual Socialist Register publication. With Raymond Williams and Stuart Hall, he was one of the editors of the 1967 May Day Manifesto, one of the key left-wing challenges to the 1964–70 Labour government of Harold Wilson.\nThe Making of the English Working Class\nThompson's most influential work was and remains The Making of the English Working Class, published in 1963 while he was working at the University of Leeds. The massive book, over 800 pages, was a watershed in the foundation of the field of social history. By exploring the ordinary cultures of working people through their previously ignored documentary remains, Thompson told the forgotten history of the first working-class political left in the world in the late-18th and early-19th centuries. Reflecting on the importance of the book for its 50th anniversary, Emma Griffin explained that Thompson \"uncovered details about workshop customs and rituals, failed conspiracies, threatening letters, popular songs, and union club cards. He took what others had regarded as scraps from the archive and interrogated them for what they told us about the beliefs and aims of those who were not on the winning side. Here, then, was a book that rambled over aspects of human experience that had never before had their historian.\nThe Making of the English Working Class had a profound effect on the shape of British historiography, and still endures as a staple on university reading lists more than 50 years after its first publication in 1963. Writing for the Times Higher Education in 2013, Robert Colls recalled the power of Thompson's book for his generation of young British leftists:\nI bought my first copy in 1968 – a small, fat bundle of Pelican with a picture of a Yorkshire miner on the front – and I still have it, bandaged up and exhausted by the years of labour. From the first of its 900-odd pages, I knew, and my friends at the University of Sussex knew, that this was something else. We talked about it in the bar and on the bus and in the refectory queue. Imagine that: young male students more interested in a book than in gooseberry tart and custard.\nIn his preface to this book, E.P. Thompson set out his approach to writing history from below:\nI am seeking to rescue the poor stockinger, the Luddite cropper, the \"obsolete\" hand-loom weaver, the \"Utopian\" artisan, and even the deluded follower of Joanna Southcott, from the enormous condescension of posterity. Their crafts and traditions may have been dying. Their hostility to the new industrialism may have been backward-looking. Their communitarian ideals may have been fantasies. Their insurrectionary conspiracies may have been foolhardy. But they lived through these times of acute social disturbance, and we did not. Their aspirations were valid in terms of their own experience; and, if they were casualties of history, they remain, condemned in their own lives, as casualties.\nThompson's thought was also original and significant because of the way he defined \"class.\" To Thompson, class was not a structure, but a relationship:\nAnd class happens when some men, as a result of common experiences (inherited or shared), feel and articulate the identity of their interests as between themselves, and as against other men whose interests are different from (and usually opposed to) theirs. The class experience is largely determined by the productive relations into which men are born—or enter involuntarily. Class-consciousness is the way in which these experiences are handled in cultural terms: embodied in traditions, value-systems, ideas, and institutional forms. If the experience appears as determined, class-consciousness does not. We can see a logic in the responses of similar occupational groups undergoing similar experiences, but we cannot predicate any law. Consciousness of class arises in the same way in different times and places, but never in just the same way.\nBy re-defining class as a relationship that changed over time, Thompson proceeded to demonstrate how class was worthy of historical investigation. He opened the gates for a generation of labour historians, such as David Montgomery and Herbert Gutman, who made similar studies of the American working classes.\nA major work of research and synthesis, the book was also important in historiographical terms: with it, Thompson demonstrated the power of a historical Marxism rooted in the experience of real flesh-and-blood workers. Thompson wrote the book while living in Siddal, Halifax, West Yorkshire and based some of the work on his experiences with the local Halifax population.\nThompson left the University of Warwick in protest at the commercialisation of the academy, documented in the book Warwick University Limited (1971). He continued to teach and lecture as a visiting professor, particularly in the United States. However, he increasingly worked as a freelance writer, contributing many essays to New Society, Socialist Register and historical journals. In 1978 he published The Poverty of Theory which attacked the structuralist Marxism of Louis Althusser and his followers in Britain on New Left Review (famously saying: \"...all of them are Geschichtenscheissenschlopff, unhistorical shit\"). The title echoes that of Karl Marx's 1847 polemic against Pierre-Joseph Proudhon, The Poverty of Philosophy and that of philosopher Karl Popper's 1936 book The Poverty of Historicism. Thompson's polemic provoked a book-length response from Perry Anderson, Arguments Within English Marxism.\nDuring the late 1970s Thompson acquired a large public audience as a critic of the then Labour government's disregard of civil liberties; his writings from this time are collected in Writing By Candlelight (1980).\nVoice of the peace movement\nFrom 1980, Thompson was the most prominent intellectual of the revived movement for nuclear disarmament, revered by activists throughout the world. In Britain, his pamphlet Protest and Survive, a parody on the government leaflet Protect and Survive, played a major role in the revived strength of the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament. Just as important, Thompson was, with Ken Coates, Mary Kaldor and others, an author of the 1980 Appeal for European Nuclear Disarmament, calling for a nuclear-free Europe from Poland to Portugal, which was the founding document of European Nuclear Disarmament. Confusingly, END was both a Europe-wide campaign that comprised a series of large public conferences (the END Conventions), and a small British pressure group.\nThompson played a key role in both END and CND throughout the 1980s, speaking at many public meetings, corresponding with hundreds of fellow activists and sympathetic intellectuals, and doing more than his fair share of committee work. He had a particularly important part in opening a dialogue between the west European peace movement and dissidents in Soviet-dominated eastern Europe, particularly in Hungary and Czechoslovakia, for which he was denounced as a tool of American imperialism by the Soviet authorities.\nHe wrote dozens of polemical articles and essays during this period, which are collected in the books Zero Option (1982) and The Heavy Dancers (1985). He also wrote an extended essay attacking the ideologists on both sides of the cold war, Double Exposure (1985) and edited a collection of essays opposing Ronald Reagan's Strategic Defense Initiative, Star Wars (1985).\nAn excerpt from a speech given by Thompson featured in the computer game Deus Ex Machina (1984). Thompson's own haunting recitation of his 1950 poem of \"apocalyptic expectation, \"The Place Called Choice,\" appeared on the 1984 vinyl recording \"The Apocalypso\", by Canadian pop group Singing Fools, released by A&M Records.\nThe last book Thompson finished was Witness Against the Beast: William Blake and the Moral Law (1993). The product of years of research and published shortly after his death, it shows how far Blake was inspired by dissident religious ideas rooted in the thinking of the most radical opponents of the monarchy during the English civil war.\nIn 1948 Thompson married Dorothy Towers, whom he met at Cambridge. A fellow left-wing historian, she wrote studies on women in the Chartist movement, and the biography Queen Victoria: Gender and Power; she was Professor of History at the University of Birmingham. The Thompsons had three children, the youngest of whom is the award-winning children's writer, Kate Thompson.\nThompson was a user of marijuana, although he never made his habit public during his lifetime.\nWilliam Frank Thompson\nThompson's older brother William Frank Thompson (1920–1944), was also a member of the British Communist Party during World War II. A gifted linguist, Frank Thompson parachuted into fascist-occupied Bulgaria as part of a \"Phantom Brigade\" during Operation Mulligatawny. There, he supported the resistance as a liaison officer. Frank Thompson was captured and on 10 June 1944 he was executed. His body was buried in the War Cemetery of Sofia. After the war, the Bulgarians erected a statue in his honour. The nearby villages of Livage, Lipata, Tsarevi Stragi, Malak Babul, Babul and Zavoya were merged and renamed to Thompson in the British officer's honour.\nE. P. Thompson and his mother wrote There is a Spirit in Europe: A Memoir of Frank Thompson (1947). Frank Thompson was also a friend and confidant of Iris Murdoch, the philosopher and novelist. E. P. Thompson wrote another book about his brother, published in 1996.\nAlthough Thompson left the Communist Party of Great Britain, but remained committed to Marxist ideals, Leszek Kołakowski wrote a very harsh criticism of Thompson in his 1974 essay \"My Correct Views on Everything.\" Tony Judt considered this rejoinder so authoritative that he claimed that \"no one who reads it will ever take E.P. Thompson seriously again\". Kolakowski's portrait of Thompson elicited some protests from readers, and other left-wing journals came to Thompson's defence. On the 50th anniversary of the landmark publication of The Making of the English Working Class, journalists celebrated E.P. Thompson as one of the preeminent historians of his day.\n- William Morris: Romantic to Revolutionary.

{"text": "Lawsonite eclogite is a rare rock type that has been described from only five natural occurrences. In contrast, laboratory experiments and thermal models predict that lawsonite eclogite should be widespread in subducted oceanic crust deeper than 1.5 GPa. Here we report a new lawsonite eclogite find from the Dominican Republic that provides constraints on the conditions of subducted crust and on its return to the surface. In this sample, lawsonite coexisting with omphacite occurs as both inclusions in garnet and as porphyroblasts, the latter being partly replaced at their margins by epidote and zoisite. Peak pressure conditions estimated from lawsonite-phengite-omphacite-garnet assemblages were ca 1.6 GPa at a temperature of 360°C, implying formation under a geotherm of ca. 8°C/km. Peak temperature conditions of 410–450°C were in the zoisite eclogite field, suggesting that the sample crossed from the stability field of lawsonite eclogite into that of zoisite eclogite as a result of increasing temperature. A comparison with other reported occurrences indicates that most lawsonite eclogite exhumed at the Earth's surface formed in accretionary wedges. The rarity of lawsonite eclogite at the Earth's surface may be principally due to two factors: (i) that in ‘normal’ subduction settings lawsonite eclogite enters the subduction factory and hence is usually not exhumed; and (ii) that in accretionary wedge settings, where the PT path leaves the stability field of lawsonite eclogite due to heating, lawsonite eclogite is only preserved if the exhumation path is constrained to a narrow window where the terminal stability of lawsonite is not crossed.", "label": "No"}
{"text": "About Herniated Disc\nWhat is a Herniated Disc?\nIn the spinal column, there are intervertebral discs sandwiched in between many vertebrae. An intervertebral disc is made up of a fibro-cartilaginous round outer casing called annulus fibrosus. Within the annulus fibrosus is a gel like substance called the nucleus pulposus. The nucleus pulposus acts as a shock absorber for the spinal column, brain, and nerves.\nWhen a bulge or herniation is in a spinal column disc, the bulge or herniation will pinch nearby nerves; this is called a herniated disc\nTypes of Herniated Discs\nA herniated disc can also be known as a bulging disc, a ruptured disc, or a prolapsed disc.\nThrough the foramina of the vertebrae, the spinal cord travels down to the sacrum. At the sacrum, spinal nerve levels with sensory nerves exit laterally out of the spinal column, form bulbous dorsal root ganglia, and, once again, move laterally. When a disc becomes herniated, the outer wall of the annulus fibrosus starts to give way; this forms a “bulge” as the nucleus pulposus moves to the outer edge, thus, creating a bulging disc.\nRuptured and Prolapsed Disc\nAfter this happens, the bulge will pinch nearby nerves and cause pain. If a tear occurs, the gel-like substance, called the nucleus pulposus, ruptures through the annulus fibrosus and falls below onto the dorsal root ganglia causing severe pain in the neck or back. This creates a ruptured disc or prolapsed disc.\nSymptoms and Causes\nThe following symptoms are dependant on the location of the herniated disc.\n- Back pain may pass through the leg(s)\n- Neck pain may pass through the arm(s)\n- Leg pain, numbness, and/or weakness\n- Foot pain, numbness, and/or weakness\n- Arm pain, numbness, and/or weakness\n- Hand pain, numbness, and/or weakness\n- Difficulty walking\nA herniated disc can cause you pain in the area of the herniation. If it is in the cervical region, there may be some referred pain to your shoulders, arms, and hands. If it is in the lumbar region, there may be some referred pain to your buttocks, thighs, legs, and feet; the pain usually follows down the sciatic nerve. Because of this, it may be difficult to do any strenuous or physical activities. These include work, house, or sports related activities.\nTreatment for a Herniated Disc\n- Back stretching and strengthening exercises\n- Non Steroidal Anti Inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs)\n- Strong medications\n- Muscle relaxants\n- Epidural injections in herniated disc\nIf the above is not a solution to the pain and discomfort, surgery may be required. In order to provide pain relief, the surgeon may remove part of the disc or bone (lamina). Vertebrae bones may also be fused to alleviate pain.\nYou can contact the Law Offices of Michael Cordova by calling us at (602) 265-6700, or by our online Chat Services.", "label": "No"}
{"text": "What is SAS? What does SAS stands for?\nSAS (Statistical Analysis System) is a software package used for business analytics, business intelligence, predictive analysis, and data management. It helps the organizations to handle their datasets and take well-informed data-driven decisions with the help of visual reports.\nWhat are some important features of SAS?\nThe most important features of SAS are:\n- It has data analysis capabilities starting from simple statistics to advanced level analytics.\n- It has the ability to read any file or data format.\n- The syntax is easy and has the support of many libraries.\n- It has a feature called the SAS environment manager that is used for monitoring and managing the analytics environment.\n- It is highly secure and maintains the security of the SAS data through the SAS/SECURE.\nExplain the basics structure of SAS program?\nThe SAS has the following program structure:\n- The Data step – In this step, a data set is created that works as the source of data analysis.\n- The PROC step – Here, data from the above data set is analyzed.\n- The Output step – Here, the result of the data analysis done in the previous step is shown as output.\nHow many data type present in SAS?\nSAS has the following data types namely numeric, character and date.\nExplain the difference between If and Where in SAS?\nThe rules of the Where statement are verified when the DATA step gets compiled. When the DATA step runs, the records are filtered that matches the Where condition. So, only these data records get loaded into the program data vector. If the statement is analyzed at runtime, on variables that are already in the PDV.\nWhat is PDV in SAS?\nPDV (Program Data Vector) is the memory space that is created during the processing of a data step. It contains two variables permanent and temporary. SAS reads one observation into the PDV and writes that observation into the target dataset.\nWhat is clinical SAS?\nSAS clinical is an application used in the clinical domain for conducting research and experimentation by pharmaceutical companies. Clinicians and doctors use SAS programming to collect and examine clinical data.\nWhat is the base SAS?\nBase SAS is the foundation for all SAS software that has a flexible programming language. It has a web-based interface used for data manipulation, data storage, and retrieval and analyzing any data. It can be combined with Hadoop and MapReduce programs to work and manage large datasets.\nHow to create a permanent library in SAS?\nSteps to create a permanent library in SAS are as follows:\n- For a new library, the read/write/execute permissions are required. As rights to the server are needed, it is advisable that the administrator creates the library.\n- A permanent library is created in the SAS management console., where the metadata is stored.\n- In the stored process or program the meta-library has to be referenced by the statement\nLIBNAME LocalLib METALIBRARY='lib_name'; where lib_name is the library created in the SAS management console.\nWhat is SAS Model?\nThe SAS (Statistical Analysis System) is a software model that is used for business analytics, business intelligence, predictive analysis, and data management. The SAS software suite has a Model that is used for managing analytical models through a web interfaced repository. Candidate models are also developed and validated through SAS Model manager.\nHow to import xlsx file in SAS?\nThe excel files having an extension of flux can be converted into SAS using the PROC Import and the SAS Studio point and click method.\nHow to find missing values in SAS?\nThe missing values in SAS can be found out by the following steps:\n- Specify such a format for the variables so that the missing variables have a single value and the now missing value have a different value.\n- In the Tables statement, mention the Missing and Misprint\n- In the Tables statement, use the _char_ and _numeric_ keywords for mentioning that the FREQ procedure analyses the statistics for all numeric and character values.\nWhat is the data step in SAS?\nA group of SAS language statements that start with a DATA statement is called a data step. It is the basic step of creating a data set with Base SAS software. It contains other statements that are used to manipulate the SAS datasets and develop new data sets from raw data files. A data step can be used for evaluating variable values, obtaining information, managing files, writing files, etc.\nWhat is SAS grid?\nThe SAS grid is an environment where the tasks are distributed among multiple systems on a network, which is managed by the SAS Grid Manager. The workload is distributed across the system grid that helps in job scheduling, load balancing of the work and acceleration of the processing.\nDifference between nodupkey and nodup options in SAS?\nIn SAS, the Nodup option in Proc sort is used to remove the duplicate records that are contiguous, before sorting the data on variables that are listed in the Proc sort statement. The Nodupkey is used to remove the duplicate observations in the data according to the variables listed in the BY statement in Proc sort.\nHow to comment in SAS?\nSteps to comment code in SAS are as follows:\n- Highlight the several lines of code using the cursor.\n- Press Ctrl + / to comment out the lines of code.\n- To uncomment press Ctrl + Shift+ /.\nHow to convert character to numeric in SAS?\nIn SAS, the INPUT and PUT functions are used to convert values present inside a character variable to numeric values. A new variable is created when these functions are used that have converted values. The following code has to be used:\nnew_converted_variable = input (original_variable, informat.);\nHere the informat instructs SAS to interpret the value in the original variable.\nHow to rename variables in SAS?\nThe README function is used to rename a variable into another new name. To alter the name of the variable in a SAS dataset, the following code has to be used:\nRENAME = (old_name=new_name old_name2=new_name2 .... oldk=newk);\nHere old_name is the name of the original variable and new_name is the new variable name that has to be altered. If the RENAME=option is in the SET statement, the alteration of the variable name takes place when the program vector is created.\nHow to import SAS dataset into SAS?\nA SAS dataset is placed inside a library where the libname statement connects the library name to a directory. The datasets are read through the PROC SQL or Merge statements in the data steps.\nExplain Input and Put functions in SAS.\n- The INPUT function is used to convert the value of a variable into another value according to a specified format. They are used to change a character value to a numeric value.\n- The PUT function is also used to change a numeric value to a character value. The function has no effects on the formats specified in the PUT statement.\nSAS Developer Interview Questions and Answer\nPlease consider the following question very seriously because I have given plenty of Interview for SAS Developer and often interviewer asked me these following question.\n1) What are the SAS functions you have used?\n2) In which case you go for libname and in which case you go for proc SQL pass-through facilit diff?\n3) Suppose I have a dataset with variables empid and doj then how to calculate retirement age?\n4) Difference between proc sql merge and join?\n5) Difference between where and if statement in SAS?\n6) What data step statements you have used in your project?\n7) How many tiers in SAS architecture?\n8) If I have a million observations, I want to read 1 and last observation, how can we do?\n9) What is %sysfunc?\n10) How many ways to create a macro?\n11) What macro functions you have used?\n12) Difference between %str and %nrstr? In how many ways you can schedule a job?\n13) How many methods are available in SAS to eliminate duplicates?\n14) I have 2 datsets:ds 1 ds2\nI want inner join how many records using match-merge and SQL join will be there in resultant data set?\n15) How many ways to import text file into SAS using data step?\n16) Why call symput?\n17) What are the formats we have?", "label": "No"}
{"text": "When the mariner was about twelve, he was reading one of his father’s textbooks that had a chapter on Thomas Malthus, a British economist who, in 1798, said that population growth would be destructive and would be the end of the human species. Being impressionable at that age, the mariner never forgot that warning. He has not thought about Malthus for a while but has always been aware of the impact of overcrowding on the earth in general and on the human race in particular.\nMalthus based his prediction on the fact that population was a geometric growth pattern (1,2,4,8,16..…) and food sources grew arithmetically (1,2,3,4,5…..). Eventually, he reasoned, people would die of starvation. Among several opinions about how to control human population, the most memorable was to increase the death rate. Little did he know that science would not shorten lives but would extend them; now, on the horizon, people will live greatly prolonged lives. Further, science would boost food production to keep up with population growth.\nAll this came back to mind when Elizabeth Kolbert was interviewed on television. She is the author of a new book titled The Sixth Extinction, An Unnatural History. (Henry Holt & Company). Readers may be able to watch the interview on Jon Stuart’s webpage, http://www.thedailyshow.com/videos\nThe title derives from the fact that five great extinctions have occurred in the history of living things on Planet Earth. Most know about a meteorite that hit Earth in Mexico and ended the era of dinosaurs. Check Wikipedia or search “five great extinctions” for more information. Kolbert portends that humans are the cause of the sixth great extinction.\nThe book is drawn from scientific research and trips around the world with experts on climate, oceanography, ecology, animal and plant specialists and others who study living things and their habitats.\nTo make a detailed analysis brief, Kolbert’s point is that our species once existed only on the plains of Africa and now has spread to every spot on Earth, that is, every habitat of every plant, animal, fish, invertebrate, bacteria, and has altered every single ecosystem. The result of this overpopulation, especially by a species that is extremely high maintenance in its use of food, space, materials and energy, is that tens of thousands of species are falling into extinction on a continuous basis.\nNot only are there so many humans that other species are crowded out (cities and sensitive estuaries filled in for the benefit of real estate development to name two), humans are a dirty and careless bunch. Humans are the cause of innumerable destructions of habitat by deliberately invading them (farming and river dams to name just two). Humans carry diseases that kill not only humans but other plant and animal life as well, spew chemical damage into every habitat on Earth, and alter climates to such a massive degree that animals from whales and polar bears to tiny fish, bees, coral species and plant life over the entire Earth are dying or being deliberately killed.\nWe are an uncaring lot. However, what goes around comes around. No longer can our profit be measured solely by spreadsheets and bottom line profit and loss. We are undermining ourselves day by day, even as the riverbank slowly gives way to its river. Is life in the matrix* our future, where robotic life forms are the only survivors?\nMalthus would be horrified.\n*reference to movie The Matrix, where humans live unknowingly in a matrix of coffin-like life support units and are used as batteries to generate electric power for a lifeless robot reality.", "label": "No"}
{"text": "We all know about Simple interest. You loan an amount of money. The moneylender applies an annual interest on it and when you pay the money back, you have to pay back the principal and the interest on it accumulated during that period. Simple as that.\nHowever, Compound Interest is a bit trickier. By definition, it is an “interest on interest to the principal sum of a loan or deposit.” It basically means that when you loan an amount of money and the lender applies compound interest on that, you have to pay an interest on the principal plus the accumulated interest over the years or months. In other words, the interest is added back to the principal amount and then calculated for further interest. You can say that the interest is added exponentially rather than linearly as in simple interest. Let us see how that works.\nSuppose you have taken a loan of Rs. 10000 from a bank and the bank is charging a compound interest of 10% per annum. The table given below shows how your interest will accumulate over a period of 3 years.\n|YEAR||INITIAL AMOUNT||INTEREST (10%)||FINAL AMOUNT|\n|1||10000||10000 x 10%= 1000||11000|\n|2||11000||11000 x 10%= 1100||12100|\n|3||12100||12100 x 10%= 1210||13310|\nThat is how compound interest is calculated. Now, it looks easy on simple amounts over a small period of time. But if you have to calculate the compound interest on, let’s say, Rs.679270 over a period of 8 years, it might get a bit tricky. But do not worry. Here is Compound Interest Formula for calculating compound interest. The formula is given by-\nYou can do all that or you can do the clever thing, which is, use the Byju’sCompound Interest calculator which allows you to calculate the compound interest on any sum for any period of time. All you need to do is input the numbers and relax. The Byju’s Compound Interest Calculator will do the rest for you. It is true for all values, however small or big.\nAnother thing that bugs many students in Maths is the Trigonometry formulas. Byju’s has a solution for that too- the trigonometry calculator which calculates sine, cosine, tangent, secant, cosecant and cotangent of a triangle. Just put the values for the Perpendicular and the base of the triangle, and the calculator will give you all the trigonometric values. Easy, right?", "label": "No"}

As a marsupial, the female of this species has a well-developed pouch on its abdomen into which the tiny newborn climbs, where it grows for up to the next ten to twelve months. Even after it leaves the pouch, the joey continues to return to nurse for several months (3). Sexual maturity is reached at two years of age, and individuals have been known to live over 14 years in captivity (5).\nA superb climber and capable of leaping long distances, this tree kangaroo spends much of its time in the trees, but also frequently descends to the ground in search of food (6). A largely nocturnal species, Goodfellow’s tree kangaroo emerges at night to feed mainly on leaves and fruit, but also on flowers, grass and even cereals along the forest edges.

{"text": "By DEAN BAKER, Columbian staff writer\nJuly 16, 2001\nGovernment Island once had a beautiful name, and someday it might again.\nBriefly, 196 years ago when 32 members of Lewis and Clark's Corps of Discovery camped there, it was Diamond Island.\nToday a regional committee working on the Lewis and Clark Bicentennial wants to give the island back its original name.\nIt was christened as a jewel of a place in 1805 by Lt. William Clark.\nSetting off from today's Sandy River in \"fog so thick we could not see a man 50 steps off,\" Clark and the other explorers paddled to the island, which looked to them like a diamond in the middle of the Columbia River.\nIn his journal, Nov. 3, 1805, William Clark christened the place \"Dimond Island,\" leaving out the letter \"a.\"\nThe explorers spent the night on the island about three miles west of modern Camas.\nBut the name Clark gave the island didn't stick.\nWithin 50 years, folks on both sides of the river were calling it Government Island, and today it carries the same dull moniker.\n\"It was because the government raised hay for their animals over there and ran some cattle over there as well,\" said Vancouver Councilwoman Pat Jollota, an amateur historian.\n\"It's been flooded out a couple times, and they raised dairy cows on it, too,\" said Jollota. \"I don't know how the government got the cows over there; maybe they swam across. I try to ignore it; it's in Oregon, you know.\"\nBut today, Government Island is a favorite recreation spot as well as grazing land, a wetland and a possible location for a runway for Portland International Airport.\nThe Portland-based Lewis and Clark 2005 Committee wants to resurrect the name \"Diamond Island\" in honor of the coming bicentennial. The committee also wants to expand boat access and improve interpretive signs on the island.\nThe project is part of a $2 million Oregon state parks plan for Lewis-and-Clark-connected upgrades between Troutdale and Biggs.\nGovernment Island was one of Lewis and Clark's 14 landing sites in the Vancouver-Portland area.\nA little wilderness\nGovernment Island is a wild place in the middle of a growing metropolitan area.\nJust to the south is today's PDX.\nIn 1805, today's airport site was the location of a Chinook Indian village, Nerchokioo, a temporary residence used when gathering wapato, a food plant sometimes called \"the Indian potato\" that grows at the bottom of shallow lakes.\nNerchokioo was a good-sized Indian town, with 24 straw huts and a single 50-foot-long wooden house. In 1806, on their second pass through the area, Lewis and Clark counted 50 canoes pulled up on the beach where the big jets now land near the Interstate 205 Bridge.\nDiamond Island was a busy place already when the 32 members of the Lewis and Clark expedition visited it in 1805.\n\"River wide and emence numbers of fowls, flying in every direction,\" wrote Clark, the intrepid journal keeper who, like Lewis, made up his own spellings.\n\"Saw (Trumper and Whistling) swans, geese, Brants, (Sandhill) Cranes, (Wood) Stalks (storks), white guls, (double-breasted) comerant &c., also great numbers of Sea Otter in the river,\" wrote Clark.\n\"Capt. L walked out with his gun on the Island, sent out hunters & fowlers.\n\"Here we met 15 Indn. men in 2 canoes from below,\" wrote Clark.\n\"The men were dressed with a variety of articles of European manufactory. The large Canoe had emeges on the bow & Stern handsomly Carved in wood & painted with the figur of a Bear in front & man in a Stern.\"\n\"We landed on the North side of this Dimond Island and Encamped, a canoe arrived from the village below the last rapid with a man his wife and 3 children from the village below, and a woman whome had been taken prisoner from the Snake Inds. on Clarks River.\"\nClark said he sent \"the interpreters wife\" (Sacagawea, a Shoshone from the Snake River country and wife of Charbonneau, the interpreter) to talk with the prisoner, who probably was a Paiute. They couldn't understand each other, Clark reported.\nBut the Indians lent Capt. Lewis a small canoe, and four men from the expedition used it to cross a small lake (Jewit Lake) on the island.\nLewis killed a swan and several ducks, Clark reported, \"which made our number of fowls this evening to 3 Swan, 8 brant and 5 Ducks, on which we made a Sumpteous supper.\"\nThey gave a brant to the Indian who lent them the canoe and some meat to some other Indians.\n\"One of the Indians, the man from the vilage near the Lower Rapids has a gun with a brass barrel & cock of which he prises highly,\" Clark wrote.\nThe explorers' guns weren't the first in the area. Trade was well established up and down the river and with ships at the mouth of the Columbia.\nWith that, the explorers, usually in a hurry, went on their way to the coast, not spending any more ink on the island: Diamond or not.", "label": "No"}

And the very fact that Jesus had an ossuary would contradict the Christian belief that he was resurrected and ascended to heaven.\nCameron told NBC'S TODAY show that statisticians found \"in the range of a couple of million to one in favor of it being them.\" Simcha Jacobovici, the Toronto filmmaker who directed the documentary, said the implications \"are huge.\"\n\"But they're not necessarily the implications people think they are. For example, some believers are going to say, well, this challenges the resurrection. I don't know why, if Jesus rose from one tomb, he couldn't have risen from the other tomb,\" Jacobovici told TODAY. Link to full story.\nThe last comment by Jacobovici is an example of how any evidence would be looked upon...in immediate and persistant denial.\nMonday, February 26, 2007\nSunday, February 25, 2007\nSaturday, February 24, 2007\nExplanation: Dust makes this cosmic eye look red. The eerie Spitzer Space Telescope image shows infrared radiation from the well-studied Helix Nebula (NGC 7293) a mere 700 light-years away in the constellation Aquarius. The two light-year diameter shroud of dust and gas around a central white dwarf has long been considered an excellent example of a planetary nebula, representing the final stages in the evolution of a sun-like star. But the Spitzer data show the nebula's central star itself is immersed in a surprisingly bright infrared glow. Models suggest the glow is produced by a dust debris disk. Even though the nebular material was ejected from the star many thousands of years ago, the close-in dust could be generated by collisions in a reservoir of objects analogous to our own solar system's Kuiper Belt or cometary Oort cloud. Formed in the distant planetary system, the comet-like bodies have otherwise survived even the dramatic late stages of the star's evolution.\nThursday, February 22, 2007\nTwo clowns shot dead at circus\nBOGOTA (Reuters) - Two clowns were shot and killed by an unidentified gunman during their performance at a traveling circus in the eastern Colombian town of Cucuta, police said Wednesday.\nThe gunman burst into the Circo del Sol de Cali Monday night and shot the clowns in front of an audience of 20 to 50 people, local police chief Jose Humberto Henao told Reuters. One of the clowns was killed instantly and the second died the next day in hospital.\n\"The killings had nothing to do with the show the victims were performing at the time of the incident,\" Henao said in a telephone interview. \"We are investigating the motive.\"\nWith an entrance fee of under 50 U.S. cents, Circo del Sol de Cali attracts mostly poor Colombians. It pitched it tents in Cucuta, near the border with Venezuela, earlier this month.\n\"The clowns came out to give their show and then this guy came out shooting them,\" one audience member told local television. \"It was terrible.\"\nWednesday, February 21, 2007\nKUALA LUMPUR (Reuters) - A Malaysian state plans to recruit \"spies\" from the public to snoop on unmarried lovers and report them to Islamic religious authorities, a newspaper said Tuesday.It's not only Malaysia, Saudi Arabia has \"religious police\" to keep people in line even if they are not Muslim:\nThe Terengganu state government plans to enlist the part-time spies to look out for un-Islamic behavior, such as unmarried couples kissing or holding hands, the Star daily said.\n\"Some of these 'spies' could be waitresses or even janitors at hotels acting as auxiliary undercover agents for our religious department,\" the head of the state government's Islamic and welfare committee, Rosol Wahid, was quoted as saying.\n\"Accurate details are required for the enforcement officers to act, otherwise they could be pouncing on married couples.\"\nLast October, religious police in another part of this mainly Muslim country caused an outcry when they mistakenly raided the rented holiday apartment of a Christian American couple on suspicion that they were unmarried Muslims in \"close proximity.\"\n20 face lash, prison for dancing in Saudi Arabia\nRIYADH, Saudi Arabia - A Saudi Arabian judge sentenced 20 foreigners to receive lashes and spend several months in prison after convicting them of attending a party where alcohol was served and men and women danced, a newspaper reported Sunday.\nSaudi Arabia follows a strict interpretation of Islam under which it bans alcohol and meetings between unrelated men and women.\nThe religious police, a force resented by many Saudis for interfering in personal lives, enjoys wide powers. Its officers roam malls, markets, universities and other public places looking for such infractions as unrelated men and women mingling, men skipping Islam's five daily prayers and women with strands of hair showing from under their veil.\nTuesday, February 20, 2007\nAmerican Atheists has posted a story about something I have been talking about that has been growing in the Chicagoland area and is becoming a real nuisance for some neighborhoods where mosques have been built. Mosques sending out calls to prayer across neighborhoods via loudspeakers and fill the air with wails to the masses to stop what they are doing and pray to the imaginary sky daddy of Islam. When I worked in Bridgeview,Il. only a few blocks from the Bridgeview Mosque, I heard this crap over loudspeakers five stinking times a day. This noise makes Christian churchbells seem like nothing. It’s hard to tune out, as it’s so loud the wailing sounds came right through closed windows and can be heard despite the hustle and bustle of office noises.\nHere is the article describing what is happening because of these calls to prayers from loudpeakers of The Masjid Nur Al-Islam mosque at 21 Church Avenue in Kensington in NYC.\n“Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar,” the man sings in simple and repetitive musical notes. The message is in Arabic, and translates to, “God is the greatest.”\nIn Kensington, the call to prayer is amplified by a loud speaker perched atop the Masjid Nur Al-Islam mosque at 21 Church Avenue.\nIf you haven’t heard it before, it sounds just like this. Imagine trying to take an afternoon nap and being woken up by this:\nChurch bells are one thing, but chanting religious dogma over loudspeakers is another. Why is it ok for religious folks to be obnoxious and inconsiderate? They don't know when to pray? These \"faithful\" have to be reminded with bells and wailing alarms? Maybe someone should invent watches that are preset to go off and remind the holy it's time to pray, or maybe a little zapper they can wear that goes off at certain intervals to let them know. Why do the rest of us have to hear it?\nMonday, February 19, 2007\nclick on image to enlarge\nSome time ago, I posted an article about a small number of people who still worship Zeus in these modern times. (see Zeus Revival! Zeus worshippers demand access to temple) While reading one of my favorite websites today about the Greek god, Cronos, I clicked on the Zeus link and refreshed my memory about this Top God of ancient mythology. I then looked at website images of the ruins of the Temple of Zeus and ruins of other ancient temples where people at one time actually believed these gods were real and worshipped them. I then thought about all of the churches in the world today and then think about people in ancient times walking to temple for worship much like the people of today go off to their buildings to worship the Christian god, the Muslim god, the Hindu gods. One day these holy places where people worship gods they believe truly exist will one day be ruins for civilizations of the future to dig up and write and read about in an attempt to understand our \"ancient\" world. Anyway, here is Godchecker's entry on Zeus I thought you all might enjoy reading again, or for the first time if you haven't already. For Christian lurkers, you won't go to hell for reading since there is no such place except in the mythologies of human invention. ;- )\nZEUS: Top God of the Earth and Ruler of Mount Olympus, the lofty cloudland where the Greek Gods live and look down upon mankind.\nHe is a real high-flyer, an Olympic champion, battling with the giant TITANS, casting thunderbolts and engaged in all manner of gut-busting glorious Godly pursuits.\nHis father CRONUS was so terrified of the newborn baby ZEUS's awesome power that he swallowed him up. And lived to regret it. It was left to AMALTHEA (and her goat) to protect the budding SuperGod while he learned to walk, talk, and rule the Universe. Since then he's never looked back.\nZEUS is married to the long-suffering HERA, but spends most of his time lusting after Goddesses, mortals, animals, and indeed anything that will keep still long enough.\nIt's tough at the top being the most fantastic hunky irresistible God of all time and having constantly to prove it. And never a quiet night in with slippers and a mug of cocoa because he has to keep his long-suffering wife HERA happy too. Their trials and tribulations form the basis of half the Greek entries in our database.\nZEUS has had so many mistresses and fathered so many children that there's no point in giving a list here. Just take our word for it. See also CRONUS, RHEA, HEPHAESTUS, ATHENA... and in fact most of the other Greek Gods.\nMoving on to more Godly matters, ZEUS was also known to the ancient Greeks as Epiphanes, the Magnificent One, whenever a certain star appeared in the east. This was celebrated with piph-ups known as epiphanies.\nWhen he's not running around after nubile Goddesses in the form of a lusty animal, ZEUS looks after Law, upholds Justice, and casts thunderbolts on those deserving it.\nSunday, February 18, 2007\nJoking aside, mutations are often caused by copying errors in the genetic material during cell division and by exposure to ultraviolet or ionizing radiation, chemical mutagens, or viruses. Some mutations can lead to changes in a whole species naturally over time.\nMutations create variation in the gene pool, and the less favorable (or deleterious) mutations are removed from the gene pool by natural selection, while more favorable (beneficial or advantageous) ones tend to accumulate, resulting in (gasp!) evolutionary change.(From Wikipedia...read more about mutations HERE.)\nArticle from Yahoo news:\nLONDON - Webbed feet run in Stumpy's family, but a rare mutation has left the eight-day-old duckling with two nearly full-sized legs behind the two he runs on.\nNicky Janaway, a duck farmer in New Forest, Hampshire, 95 miles southwest of London, unveiled the duckling to reporters on Saturday.\n\"It was absolutely bizarre. I was thinking 'he's got too many legs' and I kept counting 'one, two, three, four,'\" Janaway said.\nStumpy would probably not survive in the wild, but Janaway, who runs the Warrawee Duck Farm in New Forest says he is doing well.\n\"He's eating and surviving so far and he is running about with those extra legs acting like stabilizers,\" Janaway said.\nThe mutation is rare, but cases have been recorded across the world. One duckling named Jake was born in Queensland, Australia, in 2002 with four legs but died soon after.\nSaturday, February 17, 2007\nExplanation: Planetary nebula NGC 2440 has an intriguing bow-tie shape in this stunning view from space. The nebula is composed of material cast off by a dying sun-like star as it enters its white dwarf phase of evolution. Details of remarkably complex structures are revealed within NGC 2440, including dense ridges of material swept back from the nebula's central star. Near the center of the view, the star itself is one of the hottest known, with a surface temperature of about 200,000 kelvins. About 4,000 light-years from planet Earth toward the nautical constellation Puppis, the nebula spans over a light-year and is energized by ultraviolet light from the central star. The false-color image was recorded earlier this month using the Hubble's Wide-Field Planetary Camera 2(WFPC2), demonstrating still impressive imaging capabilities following the failure of the Advanced Camera for Surveys.\nFriday, February 16, 2007\nI was tagged by Krystalline Apostate to list five of my favorite quotes. It's going to be hard to narrow it down to five, but here goes. (They aren't in any certain order.) :\n1. \"I, not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today. I can choose which it shall be. Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn't arrived yet. I have just one day, today, and I'm going to be happy in it.\"\n2. \"A rocky vineyard does not need a prayer, but a pick ax.\" ~Navajo proverb~\n3. \"I might repeat to myself, slowly and soothingly, a list of quotations beautiful from minds profound — if I can remember any of the damn things.\" ~Dorothy Parker~\n4.“Everything cometh to he who waiteth, as long as he who waiteth worketh like hell while he waiteth!” ~ by fictional character Charlie Chan and is our family motto~\n5. \"I prefer to be true to myself, even at the hazard of incurring the ridicule of others, rather than to be false, and to incur my own abhorrence.\" ~ Frederick Douglas~\nI now tag tommy, The Merchant of Menace, Mikayla Starstuff, Danica and MichaelBains\n\"WHEN MORE IS NOT ENOUGH\"\nP.T.

People will believe anything, and when it comes to medicine they are just waiting for that next new pill to come on the market.\nAustralian artist Justine Cooper created a fake drug and a fake ad campaign for the drug to parody the tactics used by the drug industry to sell their wares to the public.\nAmazingly, many people think this is a real drug and the pill-poppers are all over this one even though it doesn't even exist!\nLINK: Fake drug, fake illness -- and people believe it!\nNEW YORK (Reuters) - A media exhibit featuring a campaign for a fake drug to treat a fictitious illness is causing a stir because some people think the illness is real.\nAustralian artist Justine Cooper created the marketing campaign for a non-existent drug called Havidol for Dysphoric Social Attention Consumption Deficit Anxiety Disorder (DSACDAD), which she also invented.\nBut the multi-media exhibit at the Daneyal Mahmood Gallery in New York, which includes a Web site, mock television and print advertisements and billboards is so convincing people think it is authentic.\n\"People have walked into the gallery and thought it was real,\" Mahmood said in an interview.\n\"They didn't get the fact that this was a parody or satire.\"\nBut Mahmood said it really took off over the Internet. In the first few days after the Web site (www.havidol.com) went up, it had 5,000 hits. The last time he checked it had reached a quarter of a million.\n\"The thing that amazes me is that it has been folded into real Web sites for panic and anxiety disorder. It's been folded into a Web site for depression. It's been folded into hundreds of art blogs,\" he added.\nThe parody is in response to the tactics used by the drug industry to sell their wares to the public. Consumer advertising for prescription medications, which are a staple of television advertising in the United States, was legalised in the country in 1997.\nCooper said she intended the exhibit to be subtle.\n\"The drug ads themselves are sometimes so comedic. I couldn't be outrageously spoofy so I really wanted it to be a more subtle kind of parody that draws you in, makes you want this thing and then makes you wonder why you want it and maybe where you can get it,\" she added.\nMahmood said that in addition to generating interest among the artsy crowd, doctors and medical students have been asking about the exhibit.\n\"I think people identify with the condition,\" he said.\"IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION\"\nProblems can be avoided if you take HAVIDOL only when you are able to immediately benefit from its effects. To fully benefit from HAVIDOL patients are encouraged to engage in activities requiring exceptional mental, motor, and consumptive coordination. HAVIDOL is not for you if you have abruptly stopped using alcohol or sedatives. Havidol should be taken indefinitely. Side effects may include mood changes, muscle strain, extraordinary thinking, dermal gloss, impulsivity induced consumption, excessive salivation, hair growth, markedly delayed sexual climax, inter-species communication, taste perversion, terminal smile, and oral inflammation. Very rarely users may experience a need to change physicians.\nTalk to your doctor about HAVIDOL\nThursday, February 15, 2007\nFrom FFRF: On this date in 1564, Galileo Galilei was born in Pisa, Italy. Galileo was appointed professor of mathematics at the University of Padua, where he lectured for 18 years. Galileo pioneered the experimental scientific method, building a thermoscope, constructing a geometrical and military compass, and building an improved telescope. His observations of the satellites of Jupiter, sunspots, mountains and valleys on the moon made him a celebrity, but his Copernican views were investigated and condemned by the Church. Diplomatically seeking Church permission, he published \"The Assayer,\" describing his scientific method, which was tactfully dedicated to the pope (1723). It took Galileo nearly two years to persuade the church to permit him to publish \"Dialogue on the two Chief Systems of the World - Ptolemaic and Copernican\" (1632), in which he wrote about impetus, momentum and gravity. The Holy Office banned the book, summoning the frail scientist to Rome for trial. Galileo was ordered to abjure his theory and was condemned to house arrest for the rest of his life.\n“I have been . . . suspected of heresy, that is, of having held and believed that the Sun is the center of the universe and immovable, and that the earth is not the center of the same, and that it does move . . . I abjure with a sincere heart and unfeigned faith, I curse and detest the said errors and heresies, and generally all and every error and sect contrary to the Holy Catholic church.”-- Galileo Galilei's Recantation, June 22, 1633\nThree hundred and fifty years after his death, the Catholic Church \"forgave\" Galileo. D. 1642.\nWednesday, February 14, 2007\nExplanation: Would the Rosette Nebula by any other name look as sweet? The bland New General Catalog designation of NGC 2237 doesn't appear to diminish the appearance of the this flowery emission nebula. Inside the nebula lies an open cluster of bright young stars designated NGC 2244. These stars formed about four million years ago from the nebular material and their stellar winds are clearing a hole in the nebula's center, insulated by a layer of dust and hot gas. Ultraviolet light from the hot cluster stars causes the surrounding nebula to glow. The Rosette Nebula spans about 100 light-years across, lies about 5000 light-years away, and can be seen with a small telescope towards the constellation of Monoceros.\nTuesday, February 13, 2007\nLINK: MORE ABOUT THE \"MORALS\" OF GOD\nWhenever we read ... the cruel and tortuous executions, the unrelenting vindictiveness with which more than half the Bible is filled, it would be more consistent that we call it the word of a demon than the word of God. It is a history of wickedness that has served to corrupt and brutalize humankind. And, for my own part, I sincerely detest it, as I detest everything that is cruel. -- Thomas Paine, The Age of Reason\nRemember this whenever xians ask you where you get your morals from and tell you they get their's from God.\nMonday, February 12, 2007\nThe well-preserved skeletons were discovered facing each other, their arms entwined, during excavation work in an industrial zone of the northern city of Mantua.\n\"We found these two individuals entwined in a neolithic burial chamber,\" the lead archeologist Elena Menotti told AFP.\n\"We believe them to be a man and a woman, DNA tests should be able to clear that up in a few months. From first observations, they were young because their dentition is complete and shows little signs of wear,\" she said.\n\"Everybody obviously wants to know why they were buried in an embrace like that. I think that it's a sign of a great love which has transcended time.\n\"They obviously had strong feelings for each other,\" she said.\nMenotti said the find was unlikely to be an example of widow sacrifice, a practice whereby women were sometimes buried along with the remains of their naturally-deceased husband.\n\"In such 'widow sacrifices' the women is buried alongside her husband and not in his arms.\"\nOn this date in 1809, the 16th U.S. president, Abraham Lincoln, was born in Hardin County, Kentucky. Largely self-educated, he worked on farms, splitting those famous rails, and clerking at a store. Lincoln spent eight years in the Illinois legislature and also rode the circuit of courts for many years. He married Mary Todd; only one of their four sons lived to adulthood. While seeking the nomination for Congress, Lincoln ruefully wrote Martin M. Morris, of Petersburg, Illinois, that \"There was the strangest combination of church influence against me . . . everywhere contended that no Christian ought to vote for me because I belonged to no Church, [and] was suspected of being a Deist.\" (March 26, 1843, Complete Works of Abraham Lincoln, Nicolay & Hay edition.)\n“Mr. Lincoln was never a member of any Church, nor did he believe in the divinity of Christ, or the inspiration of the Scriptures in the sense understood by evangelical Christians.\nWhen a boy, he showed no sign of that piety which his many biographers ascribe to his manhood. When he went to church at all, he went to mock, and came away to mimic.\nWhen he came to New Salem, he consorted with Freethinkers, joined with them in deriding the gospel story of Jesus, read Volney and Paine, and then wrote a deliberate and labored essay, wherein he reached conclusions similar to theirs.”-- Colonel Ward H. Lamon (a religionist and Lincoln's longtime friend), Life of Abraham Lincoln, pp. 486, 487, 157 (1872), cited by Franklin Steiner in The Religious Beliefs of Our Presidents\nSunday, February 11, 2007\nSaturday, February 10, 2007\nFrom The Clergy Letter Project:\nOn 11 February 2007 hundreds of congregations from all portions of the country and a host of denominations will come together to discuss the compatibility of religion and science. For far too long, strident voices, in the name of Christianity, have been claiming that people must choose between religion and modern science. More than 10,000 Christian clergy have already signed The Clergy Letter demonstrating that this is a false dichotomy. Now, on the 198th anniversary of the birth of Charles Darwin, many of these leaders will bring this message to their congregations through sermons and/or discussion groups. Together, participating religious leaders will be making the statement that religion and science are not adversaries. And, together, they will be elevating the quality of the national debate on this topic.\nThe Clergy Letter states:\nWe the undersigned, Christian clergy from many different traditions, believe that the timeless truths of the Bible and the discoveries of modern science may comfortably coexist. We believe that the theory of evolution is a foundational scientific truth, one that has stood up to rigorous scrutiny and upon which much of human knowledge and achievement rests. To reject this truth or to treat it as “one theory among others” is to deliberately embrace scientific ignorance and transmit such ignorance to our children. We believe that among God’s good gifts are human minds capable of critical thought and that the failure to fully employ this gift is a rejection of the will of our Creator. To argue that God’s loving plan of salvation for humanity precludes the full employment of the God-given faculty of reason is to attempt to limit God, an act of hubris. We urge school board members to preserve the integrity of the science curriculum by affirming the teaching of the theory of evolution as a core component of human knowledge. We ask that science remain science and that religion remain religion, two very different, but complementary, forms of truth.\nWhile I would like to be optimistic about the attempts of these “rational” thinking xians in their endeavor to embrace both religion and science, I looked up just how many congregations there are total in this country and found this:\nThere is no official directory for all the congregations in the county, so sociologists of religion have to rely on statistical estimates extrapolated from surveys. These are often disputed, and to complicate matters, thousands of new churches open each other, while thousands of others close. Hartford Institute estimates there are roughly 335,000 religious congregations in the United States. Of those, about 300,000 are Protestant and other Christian churches, and 22,000 are Catholic and Orthodox churches. Non-Christian religious congregations are estimated at about 12,000.These figures indicate that 10,000 signatures is a mere drop in the bucket — not even ten percent of the total congregations in this country have signed this letter thus far. There is such a long way to go yet. It's hard to believe in the year 2007, despite the fact that Darwin's theory of evolution is so highly regarded at our best institutions of higher learning around the world, that superstition still precedes rational thought and scientific evidence.\nFriday, February 09, 2007\nThursday, February 08, 2007\nTuesday, February 06, 2007\nExplanation: What's happening to our Sun? Another Coronal Mass Ejection (CME)! The Sun-orbiting SOHO spacecraft has imaged many erupting filaments lifting off the active solar surface and blasting enormous bubbles of magnetic plasma into space. Direct light from the sun is blocked in the inner part of the above image, taken in 2002, and replaced by a simultaneous image of the Sun in ultraviolet light. The field of view extends over two million kilometers from the solar surface. While hints of these explosive events, called coronal mass ejections or CMEs, were discovered by spacecraft in the early 70s, this dramatic image is part of a detailed record of this CME's development from the presently operating SOHO spacecraft. Near the minimum of the solar activity cycle CMEs occur about once a week, but near solar maximum rates of two or more per day are typical. Strong CMEs may profoundly influence space weather. Those directed toward our planet can have serious effects.\nConjoined Twins and Parasitic twins (click previous and next to scroll through to see numerous photos and stories about these special people)\nConjoined Twins - Todd Battis on the Twins' Birth\nAmazing Conjoined Twins\nMonday, February 05, 2007\nWe could get even more in-depth and ask why a loving god allowed his creations to become amputees in the first place, and why he allows little children to be born without arms or legs. Of course, we know that things happen in life due to human error, errors of doctors, disease and oftentimes freaky things of nature. To believe that there is a loving god who has the power to prevent these things in the first place, but chooses to allow this kind of thing to happen anyway, is absurd.\nKey Point from Why Won't God Heal AmputeesNo matter how many people pray, no matter how often they pray, no matter how sincere they are, no matter how much they believe, no matter how deserving the amputee, what we know is that prayers do not inspire God to regenerate amputated legs.

Have you ever wondered, “where do coffee beans come from?”\nIn this quick guide, we’ll be diving into the history, types, and unique facts about coffee beans.\nHistory of Coffee\nAccording to legend, the discovery of coffee beans goes back to 600 A.D. in Ethiopia, Africa, (known as the province of Kaffa), where a goat herder noticed that his goats became energetic after eating a bright-colored cherry on a bush.\nThe goat herder then ate the same fruit to see its effect, and surprisingly, he experienced a rush of energy within a few minutes. He later plucked some coffee berries and brought them to a monk.\nThe monk went on to make a drink out of those coffee cherries. To his astonishment, he was able to concentrate more during his midnight prayer. That’s when the first cup of coffee was born! The discovery of that magical drink spreads like fire, and as they say, the rest is history.\nIt’s also documented that around the 15th century and 16th century, the Sufi of Yemen used the cherries to stay energetic. It’s highly probable that it was discovered in Ethiopia and later brought to Yemen, from where it began its journey across the world. However, it was only in the 17th century that it became popular in Europe.\nToday, more than 70 countries in the world grow coffee, and most of these coffee production centers are in Africa, South/Central America, and Asia.\nTypes of Coffee Plants\nCoffee beans come from coffee plants. These bean plants are a type of bush or shrub that can grow around 30 feet tall. The bean is located in the center of the coffee cherry, which is the fruit of the coffee plant.\nAfter the cherries are properly harvested, the beans are extracted from them and then put through a roasting process.\nThe essential factors to grow coffee trees are:\n- High altitudes\n- Nutrient-rich soil\n- Distinct wet and dry seasons\nThere are two major types of coffee species or plants, the Arabica and Robusta, and most varieties of coffee beans are variations of these two plants.\nArabica Plants (Coffea Arabica)\nThis is by far the most prolific coffee plant. It has about 100 varieties that are farmed and consumed all over the world. Arabica plants are grown all over the “coffee belt” (otherwise known as the Bean Belt, region lies between the latitudes of 25 degrees north and 30 degrees south). They grow in the tropical climates that exist along the equator.\nThese labor-intensive plants require 60 to 80 inches of rainfall per year, a dry period of up to 3 months, and a temperature range of 73F to 82F. These beans are longer and flatter. Arabica beans are one of the healthiest, as it’s low in caffeine content and delicate in flavor.\nThough highly-priced, it’s a true delight for the palate. About 99% of roasteries are from the Arabica family.\nMain Coffee Producers: Latin America, Brazil, Ethiopia, Columbia\nFun Fact: The first Arabica coffee bean plant was discovered in Ethiopia (the birthplace of coffee). From this very plant, the most expensive and high-end artisan coffees are processed, such as the Bourbon, an exclusive variety grown in South America, and Caturra in Guatemala and the Dominican Republic.\nRobusta Plants (Coffea Robusta, or Coffea Canephora)\nThis coffee plant is known for its strong, earthy flavor, and is high in caffeine content. The beans’ size is small and has fewer sugar compounds. There are a couple of varieties under this Robusta family, namely the C.c Robusta and C.c Nganda. This variety is very popular in the Middle East, Africa, and European region.\nThe Robusta coffee plant is much more cultivable than the Arabica, making it a cheaper bean. The coffee produced is more creamy. This makes it simple to be used in commercial-grade products, such as instant or as a filler in a dark roast.\nMain Producers: Although the bulk of Robusta beans are grown in Africa, Indonesia, India, and Uganda, Vietnam is the single largest producer of the heavily caffeine-infused Robusta beans.\nFun Fact: Vietnamese treat it as a specialty beverage. The use of the caffeine-intense Robusta beans is a rarity in the coffee world.\nCoffee Bean Facts\nHere are some interesting coffee facts that you may be interested to know:\n- Beans are technically fruit pits or seeds, but due to their resemblance to legumes, they’re referred to as beans.\n- Second most commercialized and legal merchandise in the world market after petroleum.\n- A new plant may take 3 to 4 years to produce fruit known as coffee cherries. They last for an average of 50 to 60 years.\n- Lightly roasted beans contain high caffeine in comparison to dark roasted beans.\n- No variety of plants can survive in freezing temperatures. This is why they’re mostly grown along the equator.\n- Kopi luwak, also known as civet-cat coffee, is one of the most expensive beans in the world. It’s produced in Indonesia, costing above $1000 per kilogram for a wild-collected assortment.\n- Finland drinks the most in the world (in terms of per capita). The United States ranks 25th on the list.\nThe above article has given you a fair answer to the query, “where do coffee beans come from?” both in the literal sense (comes from coffee plants) as well as the geographical aspect (the origin).\nNevertheless, production has reached far and wide. There are different methods to grow, harvest, and roast beans, and these methods assign the wide spectrum of taste we get from each production.\nSo, now when you order your cups or bags of beans, you’ll be more informed about its origin. Don’t forget to explore different varieties, as each origin has its unique taste. To know more about coffee and brewing products, visit greatcoffeebrewers.com!", "label": "No"}

A book where you feel as though you are right there, experiencing the action alongside your favorite characters. For Allie, that story was Left Hand of Darkness by Ursula Le Guin—a story about alien planets and otherworldly races that felt more real than any of the human stories she had read in school. For Claire, it was Brooklyn by Colm Toibin, a deeply personal read that closely paralleled her own grandmother’s immigrant experience.\nWhen we found these books, we realized that an expansive world of stories had gone ignored in our English classes with reading lists chock full of classics, including names like Dickens and Fitzgerald. Now college students, we look back on the reading lists we endlessly trudged through and realize it wasn’t us, it was the list!\nRead Outside the Margins was inspired by these personal experiences reading normative stories in school. Between homework and after-school activities, the books assigned in class are often the only stories that students are reading, and schools have long relied on “high literature” to expose students to a variety of stories. But no matter how different the plots of these literary classics might be, most of their characters and worlds reflect the same normative themes of the western canon.\nWhen students can’t relate to any of the stories they are assigned, reading stops at the classroom. Incorporating reading that showcases a variety of thoughtfully written identities will help students of all races, sexualities, and genders connect with their readings as well as help cultivate empathy and respect in all students for each other’s differences.\nRead Outside the Margins takes these tropes and flips them on their head. The series will highlight hand-picked stories that students can connect with and actually want to read!\nEach post in the Read Outside the Margins series will feature books spanning all reading levels and age groups. Claire’s picks will be focused on books for kids in preschool through elementary school, and Allie’s picks will feature books for middle and high schoolers. We’ll give you a brief description of the book, why we chose it, and how it can be useful in the classroom!

Recognizing some of the potential fall driving hazards could assist in preventing accidents. Outlined below are four reasons why driving in the fall can be more dangerous than during other times of the year.\nIt would be understandable to think that the sun poses the biggest risk during the summertime. However, during fall, the sun sets closer to the horizon. As a result, sunlight may strike you directly in the eyes or reflect strongly from nearby buildings and windows. Exposure to sunlight can cause temporary blindness, which significantly increases the chance of an accident. Having your sunglasses at hand, as well as keeping your windshield clean, could offer some protection from the sun’s glare.\nDeep puddles and surface water can pose a significant threat to the safety of drivers. However, so too can a lesser amount of water. California can often experience significantly dry periods throughout the summer, which could mean that dust and grime have built up on the surface. Once this dry dirt has been hit by rainfall, it can take on an oily texture, reducing traction on tires and leading to potential accidents.\nWhen daylight wanes during the fall, road users are forced to operate more frequently in the dark. Darker conditions generally mean that vision is obstructed, and a change in perception makes hazards more difficult to anticipate. Headlights, high beams and fog lights can be used to counteract these conditions, but they must be used appropriately.\nAdapting your driving style with the changing seasons could help ensure your safety. If you have been injured in an accident, it may benefit you to know your legal rights.", "label": "No"}

{"text": "Display to header level\nHow does decrease or increase in market value of land resulting from establishing or amending an easement relate to the conservation easement’s value? What do we mean when we refer to “value”? This guide explores these questions\nThis guide does not review the numerous factors to consider in analyzing whether to move forward with an easement amendment. It does not provide guidance regarding the crafting of restrictive covenants. It aims only to bring clarity to thinking in regard to the market value of land and its tenuous relationship to the financial and conservation value of a conservation easement.\nWe can think of the word value in market terms–the amount of money that a willing buyer would pay a willing seller in an arm’s length transaction. Or we can view value in conservation terms: water quality, wildlife habitat, scenic, or other environmental benefits delivered by an action or state of affairs. We might attach a dollar value to these conservation benefits based on the ecosystem services they provide, but—generally speaking and barring fundamental changes in our present economic system—they do not hold market value; there is no market in which to buy and sell the conservation value.\nConsider a proposed amendment to a conservation easement. Let’s assume that no money changes hands between landowner and land trust. Let’s also assume that the amendment would result in a lower market value for the eased property.\nCan we gather from this information alone that the land trust would gain value in this amendment transaction? No!\nIn strictly economic—dollars on the barrel—terms, the value delivered to the land trust is ZERO whether the market value of the property drops by 90% or increases a hundredfold. A landowner losing asset value in no way increases the marketable assets of the land trust. No matter the scenario, conservation easements consistently have essentially zero value on the market because they are unmarketable.\nIn conservation terms, the scenario presents too little information to evaluate whether the amendment delivers additional wildlife, water, scenic, or other conservation value. From the reduction in market value, one might infer that construction or other activities have been further limited in such a way as to create additional conservation value. While this inference likely will be correct, you cannot reliably discern the impact on conservation values by looking at the financial impact on the landowner; you must instead directly examine how the easement changes will affect the land.\nConsider now the deliberation over the terms of a grant of conservation easement that is to be conveyed from landowners to land trust. Let’s assume the parties are contemplating two possibilities regarding the types of uses permitted in a small, well-defined area (the “Minimal Protection Area”) within the larger property to be eased:\nAlternative A. The restrictive covenants will restrict all new improvements on the land to the Minimal Protection Area. Use of the Minimal Protection Area is further restricted to residential use or any use that has no more impact on conservation values than potential residential uses (for example, home businesses or some light commercial). If the transaction were to proceed, the easement would result in a $200,000 reduction in the market value of the land.\nAlternative B. The owners recognize that they only have interest in residential use; they are relatively young and could care less about the impact of restrictions on future owners. Number-crunching suggests that the market value of the land would be reduced by $300,000 if commercial uses of the Minimal Protection Area were to be prohibited and only residential use allowed. Due to the greater loss of market value brought by the more restrictive covenants on the Minimal Protection Area as compared to Alternative A, they could claim a larger tax deduction (or perhaps sell the conservation easement for a larger sum) based on the before-and-after land values determined by appraisal.\nAlternatives A and B result in essentially the same conservation outcomes. Neither alternative delivers appreciably better wildlife, water, scenic, or other conservation values than the other. Yet the alternatives deliver strikingly different financial results to the landowners.\nConsider now a different scenario where a fixed number of future structures (or impervious coverage) is to be permitted on a property. The easement’s covenants could be drafted to require that the structures be concentrated in one location chosen to be of least impact to conservation values, or the covenants could instead permit them to be spread across the property in any number of configurations. The concentrated approach would deliver far superior conservation results, but the choice of it over another configuration may or may not make any difference in the financial outcome for the landowners (although they may have preferences regarding placement).\nOne should not assume a straightforward relationship between the change in market value of the land and the conservation benefits delivered (or conservation detriment caused). One should not assume that one set of restrictive covenants is superior in conservation terms to another purely on the basis of impact of those covenants on land value. No matter the scenario, the value of the easement as a financial asset to the land trust is the same—essentially zero. Also, as in the amendment scenario, the choice of restrictive covenants may or may not affect conservation values.\n For that, see the Guide and Model Policy for Conservation Easement Amendment\n Could there be a scenario where one land trust covets another’s conservation easement for some marketing or other advantage? And from this, could one endeavor to assign some financial value to the easement? Sure, but this is quite the stretch.\nWeConservePA produced this guide with support from the Colcom Foundation, the William Penn Foundation, and the Community Conservation Partnerships Program, Environmental Stewardship Fund, under the administration of the Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources, Bureau of Recreation and Conservation.\nNothing contained in this or any other document available at ConservationTools.org is intended to be relied upon as legal advice or to create an attorney-client relationship.

{"text": "In the 1980s, northern Ethiopia plunged into one of the worst humanitarian crises in history. “A biblical famine in the twentieth century,” described one BBC reporter. For many concerned citizens, the images of hunger and war-torn communities broadcast around the world will never be forgotten.\nHunger persists in many communities throughout Ethiopia, though thankfully, not at the severity levels we saw three decades ago. A few miles down the road from Korem, the site of one of the country’s largest displacement camps in the 1980s, is the town of Hamusit. Today – despite facing recurrent droughts – there are signs of hope: with support from Action Against Hunger, the community is becoming more resilient and better able to cope with unpredictable rainfall.\nIn Hamusit and the surrounding Waghimra region, more than 90 percent of the population depends on farming, herding, or a combination of both to make a living. Ensuring an adequate supply of nourishment for livestock – fodder crops – is critical to the growth, health, milk production, and reproductive potential of cows, goats, sheep and other animals. But the land needed to grow these crops is not always available.\n\"In many cases, farmers in Waghimra do not own or cannot access land that is productive enough for fodder to grow using classical agriculture technologies,\" says Gebris Ayalew, head of Action Against Hunger’s resilience project there. Most of the land has been used for food crop production for people which, combined with chronic water shortages and poor irrigation infrastructure, has led to historically large livestock losses.\nTo combat the challenges faced in this drought-prone area, families are trying new methods of growing food for their livestock. Demberie and her husband, Kiros, grow grass for their goats through a technique known as hydroponics – an innovative method of growing plants without soil. The grass sprouts from a platform built with wood and plastics and is watered with a nutrient-rich mineral solution.\n\"This technique allows them to produce high-quality, nutritious, low-cost fodder within a short time,\" Ayalew explains. Compared to more traditional, soil-based methods, hydroponics can produce higher yields and uses water more efficiently.\n“Before, we had to walk with the animals all day in search of grass, but now, with the fodder we produce at home, it is no longer necessary. I spend that time at school,” says Kibru, the family’s oldest son.\nThe whole family has a role in the process: Demberie collects water early in the morning, and Kiros waters the plants, removes the newly harvested grass, and feeds the goats. Kibru milks the goats and takes them for a walk near the river every morning before studying and going to school.\n“With this food, the goats are reproducing more. With their milk, we feed our young children and we can sell what remains at the market,” explains Kiros.\nIn the afternoon, Demberie attends meetings for her local mother-to-mother support group, where women in the community discuss maternal and child health and nutrition.\nMany of the women who participate in the mothers’ group also receive support to generate income for their families. With a small loan of money and three sheep, Shewagu, a single mother of two children, has launched her own business selling berbere, a dried chili featured in Ethiopian cuisine.\nShewagu has not had an easy life: she married at 14 years old and was divorced shortly after her first child was born. She moved to Addis Ababa to try to find a job, but things did not pan out. A couple of years later, she returned to Hamusit, pregnant and sick. When Shewagu gave birth to her second child, a daughter, she still had very little to support her family. As a single mother, life was difficult. When she heard about Action Against Hunger’s program that would allow her to earn an income, she signed up without thinking twice.\n“With my loan of about $170, I started my business and things went well,” she says, proudly. “In two years, I have saved about $685. My sheep have reproduced, and now I have five.”\nShewagu received business training from Action Against Hunger, such as basic accounting skills, and the other women participating in the project have become a lifeline.\n“We have a social credit system,” she explains. “We meet every Saturday to share information and see how our businesses are going. We give [about $1.50] each month to our emergency savings fund, which we use to help a woman who has given birth or a family member who falls ill.”\nToday, Shewagu is an independent woman – she has come a long way from the dark place she was in a few years ago. \"I have hope again!\" she cries out, full of happiness.\nIt’s this hope, shared by Shewagu, Demberie, and so many others in the town of Hamusit, that is spreading throughout the region in the tireless fight against hunger.", "label": "No"}
{"text": "Organic gardening is not as easy as some may think! There is a lot more to it than just watering some seeds or digging around in the dirt. It is truly an art form. It has requires many techniques and products that require a green thumb as well as some hard work to achieve a great organic garden. Here are some tips to help you with your own:\nWhen taking an organic path to control garden pests, try to build up the soil to allow healthy microbes to flourish. Earthworms are also very important to organic gardening and they should be encouraged to stay in the soil. When the soil is unhealthy, it is not as resistant to pests.\nGrow your own organic tomatoes easily. Tomatoes love light, so choose a spot that gets sun all day long. Allow space between your tomato plants to reduce the chance of soil diseases that will affect your crop. If you buy seedlings instead of sprouting your own, stay away from small seedlings with poorly developed root systems; they will take weeks to show any real growth.\nIf you don’t have the space to have an actual garden in the ground, it’s perfectly acceptable to have an organic garden in containers. There are only a few root vegetables like asparagus that won’t grow well in containers, so feel free to explore. Containers are perfect to grow organic tomatoes, green beans, green onions and many other organic vegetables.\nProtect your seeds from fungus with natural products. You can use milled sphagnum moss to protect all your plants. If your seeds need light to grow, sprinkle the moss first and then place your seeds. This solution is much better than any chemicals you can find in a store and will protect your seeds efficiently.\nAs soon as your seeds start sprouting make sure they have enough light. Move your plants next to a sunny window or put them inside a greenhouse. If you cannot do this, use fluorescent lights. Remember that your plants need up to sixteen hours of light every day.\nUse mulch to fertilize your beds. You have to make sure you spread mulch evenly, as you need a certain quantity and do not want to waste any of it. Sprinkle mulch as best as you can and use a rack to spread it flatly and evenly. Make sure you cover all the areas that need it.\nTake steps to protect earthworms in your organic garden. Till your soil minimally, as tilling can kill earthworms. The best tilling depth is 3 to 5 inches. Avoid using chemical fertilizers because they harm the micro-organisms in the soil, decreasing earthworm activity. Be sure that the soil never dries out too much, but at the same time avoid over-watering. By maintaining these soil conditions, you will notice your earthworm population increasing rapidly!\nSo, organic gardening is a lot more that dropping seeds in the ground. It takes skill and hard work outside. No doubt, you want to enjoy the fruits of your hard labor! Use the handy tips above to help you get the most out of gardening the natural way!", "label": "No"}
{"text": "Storms, earthquakes, floods, and more recently volcanoes, show that geologic force, as Friends of the Pleistocene have put it, has become vividly contemporary again.\nFOP presents a comparison to geologic erratics, displaced rock left behind by glaciers, and in many cases like the Doane Rock of Eastham MA, quite large, to the displacement of humans due to environmentally caused flight disruptions. The eruption of Eyjafjallajokull in Iceland grounded thousands of flights in Europe leaving human erratics stranded and strewn about their airports. Its as though the volcano had little concern with our schedules and travel arrangements, and as volcanic heat continues to combine with glacial ice, more eruptions are likely. After finding out that they to would be stranded in Spain FOP wrote:\nAt that point, we began to suspect that erratic was taking on a broader, more experiential definition for contemporary life for thousands of people. Might erratic aptly describe the current status of human / geologic relationality? Given that our fragile infrastructures rely increasingly on a need for geologic forces to remain stable and oddly unchanging–perhaps erratic becoming the new norm. Air travel, one of the most monumental achievements and inventions of humankind, had transported us easily 3600 miles across the ocean just a few days before. Now, suddenly, it was rendered useless.\nThe discussion of environmentally caused human erratics or affected by, brings to mind some of the Glacier/Island/Storm writings curated by BLDGBLOG and contributions from the likes of Mammoth and Infranet Lab, among others. Human interaction/encroachment/engagement and vice versa is creating an ever evolving dynamic between man and nature. Through architecture and infrastructures, and now atmospheric geo-engineering, we have shown that we can impact earth's processes, but given a long enough time frame, the planet will always end up the victor.\nBut as populations grow, and as extreme natural cataclysmic events continue, the prevalence of human erratics, or environmental refugees would seem to become commonplace in our cultures and thus necessitate future planning schemes for such. Imagine the displaced erratics of Hurricane Katrina reaching a continuous global scale, how would cities prepare?\nFOP pointed to Michio Kaku’s words in The Wall Street Journal as a timely reminder: Humans need to find ways to move in accord with geologic time and force, not in spite of their unpredictability, but because of them – and because of our deep entanglement with them:\n“Unfortunately, our institutional memory lasts a few decades at most, while the cycles of mother Earth are usually measured in centuries or millennia. So for the future we have to appreciate that we humans will be pushed around like pawns as the earth slowly but inexorably changes and shifts.\nWe may think of volcanoes now as villains. But they are also givers of life. Much of the air we breathe and the ground we walk on can be traced back to ancient volcanic eruptions. And the extinction of the dinosaurs 65 million years ago (which paved the way for the coming of humans) might be traced back to a one-two punch caused by an asteroid collision and simultaneous volcanic eruptions.\nThe fact that humans are about 99.9% genetically identical could, according to one theory, be traced back to the Toba eruption in Indonesia roughly 70,000 years ago. That eruption might have killed off most of the human race, leaving only a few hundred of us to populate the planet. We might, therefore, owe our evolution and very existence to volcanoes.”–Michio Kaku", "label": "No"}
{"text": "Around 80% of auto accidents take place due to as little as three seconds of driver inattention.\nYou must have noticed people using mobile phones, playing video games, taking food or even applying makeup inside the car. A recent study found that such seemingly harmless distractions increase the risk of car accidents to a great extent. In fact, around 80% of auto accidents and 65% of near-crashes take place due to as little as three seconds of driver inattention, according to a study by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the Virginia Tech Transportation Institute. As expected, the study found that young drivers are more susceptible to auto accidents due to distraction.\nThe researchers installed cameras and sensors inside the respondents’ cars to monitor driver’s behaviors at the time of the accident. The study found that reaching for an object inside the car can increase the risk of accident like nothing else can. In fact, a car is exposed to nine times higher risk of accident when the driver of the car makes an attempt to reach for an object inside the car, according to the study.\nIn general, we all know that talking on the phone and text messaging while driving are common causes of auto accidents. However, the study says that driver inattention may be caused by several other reasons. For instance, the study found that the following activities may cause driver’s distraction and increase accident risks by three times.\n- Applying makeup\n- Dialing a handset\nHowever, mobile phone use was found to cause driver’s inattention in most cases. Even talking or listening on the phone while driving can increase the chances of an accident occurring. Still, dialing is more dangerous because accidents due to dialing occur more often than accidents due to talking or listening occur.\nThe Role of Distraction in Auto Accidents\nThe study found that talking over phone increase the risk of a crash or near-crash by 1.3 times, dialing a handset by nearly three times, applying makeup by three times, reading by around three times, looking outside by 3.7 times, and trying to reach for a moving object by nine times.\nPrevious studies revealed that using cell phones while driving increases the risk of an auto accidents considerably. Moreover, teenagers are exposed to higher risk of being involved in an accident due to taking over phone while driving. Drivers in the age group of 15-20 account for only six percent of all drivers but are responsible for 14 percent of all police-reported crashes and 10 percent of all deaths in road accidents.\nAccording to the collaborative study by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the Virginia Tech Transportation Institute, young drivers are exposed to seven times higher risk of crashes and near-crashes while dialing or reaching for a mobile phone, and four times higher risk of crashes and near-crashes while sending or receiving a text message. Earlier studies found that older drivers are also exposed to higher risks of being in an accident when they choose to dial a mobile phone while driving. What is frightening is that more and more young drivers are engaging in distractions while driving.\nSt. Louis Distracted Driving Accident Attorney\nIf you have been injured in an accident caused by a distracted driver, get in touch with an experienced auto accident lawyer at The Hoffmann Law Firm, L.L.C.

{"text": "Take any 3 digit number where the first and last digit areat least 2 apart. (1st number)\nReverse it. (2nd number)\nMinus the smaller number from the larger one. (3rdnumber)\nReverse it (4th number)\nAdd the 3rd and 4th number together.\nYour result is 1089.\nThis problem i first discovered in the book “1089 and all that”…an awesome little book!\nNow, take any 3 digit number, with the only requirementbeing that all 3 numbers are not equal (so the number 001 is allowed)\nNow, using these three digits, rearrange the numbers to makethe smallest and biggest possible numbers.\nNow subtract the smaller number from the larger one.\nRepeat this process. After a few steps you will reach 495.\nNow do the same process for 4 digit numbers….you get 6174.\nThe great thing about these processes is they seem magicalto someone who has never heard of it before. Try the 1089 trick on a 10 yearold, you’ll convince them you’re magical!\nThese ‘tricks’ are – to me – some of the most interesting ‘tricks’around – well, when it comes to mathematics at least. So what I thought I’d do in this post isexplore these numbers and why these methods work, and then see what othernumbers we can find etc.\nSo starting off with 1089:\nLets say your three numbers are x,y,z in that order. Lets alsosay that x is greater than z. so our two numbers are xyz and zyx. Subtracting thesegives:\n(x-z) (y-y) (z-x)\n(x-z) (y-y) (z-x)\nNow, as z is less than x, we need to ‘borrow’ a 1 from they, so we actually have\nBut we also need to ‘borrow’ a 1 from the x\nAs we’re working mod 10, and if we let x-z =c, then we have\n( c-1 ) (9) (10-(x-z))\n( c -1) (9) (10-c)\nNow we reverse this number\n(10-c) (9) ( c-1)\n+ ( c-1 )(9) (10-c)\n= ( 9) (18) (9)\n= (9+1) (8) (9)\nThis is always true.\nWhat about 495?\nLets take the number x,y,z where x>y>z\nThen we have\nx y z\n– z y x\nAgain, z<x so need to ‘borrow’ a 1 from the y, whichmeans we’ll need to borrow a 1 from the x. again, let x-z=c\nIf c were 1, we would have the number 990 and 099 for thenext round. If c were 0, it would mean that x=z and as x<y1\nIf c >5, then 10-c<c-1, so we will first look at when1<c<6\nthe biggest number will be\n(9) (10-c) (c-1)\nAnd the smallest\n(c-1) (10-c) (9)\nNow, subtracting them gives\n(9-c+1) (10-c-10+c) (c-1-9)\nAgain, we have to ‘borrow’ so\n(9-c) (9) ( c )\nWith c being 2,3,4 or 5\nIf we did the same thing when c>5 , we would end up with( c ) , (9 ) , (11-c)\nWith c being, 6,7,8or 9.\nIf c is 2\nWe have 792, so\n972-279=693, which is what we get if c is 3.\n693 gives us\n963-369=594, which is what get if c is 4…and if c is 5, we get the number 495, which isthe magic number!\nTo confirm, 594 is 954-459=495.\nIf c is 6\nWe have 695 which is\n396 which is the same as 693\nIf c is 7\nWe have 794 which is\n974-479=495, which is the magic number\nIf c is 8\nWe have 893 which is\n983-389=594 the magic number almost\nIf c is 9\nWe have 992 which is\n992-299=693 which we’ve already done.\nQuickly looking at c=1\n990-099=891 which is\n981-189=792 which we’ve already done.\nThis shows that it works for all numbers, unless all 3digits are the same.\nA similar method can be used to show that for four digits,you get the number 6174, and this number is called the Kaprekar number.\nWhat interests me is: what happens if you have n digits? Whathappens if you use repeated different operations (so using addition andsubtraction, but in different orders…maybe you subtract, subtract, add,subtract, subtract, add…)?\nYou could classify a sequence of operations as a binary operation.You could do operations on reversed numbers, or operations on biggest numberthat can be made from those digits and the smallest.\nAny of these methods could yield some interesting observationsin number theory. Applications of these observations could be used in chaostheory or cryptography….but the point of doing number theory is that there areseldom applications!\nIn a way, these tricks remind me of collatz conjecture. EvenWikipedia thinks so, as the wiki page on 495 and 6174 both link through tocollatz. Interesting correlations.\nI’ll end this post by looking at the Kaprekar routine fornumbers with 2 digits.\nxy, with x>y\nwe have xy-yx=(x-y-1) (10-(x-y))\nwe have (c-1) (c)\nso we have (c) (c-1)-(c-1)(c)=(c-c+1-1)(c-1-c+10)=9\nrepeatedly subtracting the smallest possible number from thebiggest possible number from a set of digits for n digits:", "label": "No"}
{"text": "Kiwi could disappear from our forests if we don’t work to save them nowAotearoa used to be home to millions of kiwi. Today, there are only 68,000. Save the Kiwi is on a mission to rebuild the kiwi population – but we need your help. Join the cause to return kiwi to where they used to live ... before it's too late.\nHelp return kiwi to where they used to live\nWhile kiwi chicks stay at our incubation facility until they’re big enough to be released into the wild, they eat a special diet filled with vitamins and minerals that will help them thrive.\nJust $25 will feed a kiwi chick for their entire stay, ensuring they’re in the best condition possible before they return to the wild.\nDogs are one of the biggest risks to adult kiwi. That's because a kiwi’s skeleton is very fragile. Just a gentle nudge from an inquisitive dog - even a friendly dog - has the potential to crush it.\n$50 could help a dog owner put their dog through kiwi avoidance training and reduce the likelihood of it harming a kiwi in the wild.\n95% of kiwi chicks that hatch in unprotected areas will never reach adulthood. Most kiwi chicks that are killed in the wild die in the jaws of stoats – public enemy number one to kiwi chicks.\nJust $100 could help provide bait, lures, and other trapping equipment so volunteer trappers can continue protecting their local environment.\nStoats and ferrets are the biggest threats to wild kiwi, but it can be hard to catch them. It's important that we have the best tools on the ground to make kiwi habitat safer.\n$250 could buy one DOC 250 trap which is effective enough to kill a stoat or ferret. And one less stoat or ferret in the wild means the kiwi population is much safer.\nPredators are very clever – and very elusive.\n$500 could buy two field cameras which will help us understand if predators like stoats, ferrets, and feral cats are present in habitat where kiwi live. Field cameras also help us better understand trap-shy pests, so we can tweak our trapping practices and be better at keeping kiwi safe.\nKiwi conservation is essential mahi - but we need everyone's support to make it happen.\nIf every New Zealander donated just a few dollars to Save the Kiwi, together we would be well on our way to restoring the kiwi population.\nEvery dollar counts. Please donate today.\nTo guarantee the future population growth of the kiwi, the Save the Kiwi Endowment Fund gives generous donors the opportunity to directly invest into the future of our national icon. Managed by Jarden and supported by patrons Sir John Key and Helen Clark, the Save the Kiwi Endowment Fund will ensure that predator control, training, the development of more kōhanga sites and incubation and crèching facilities, and other kiwi conservation initiatives will be guaranteed long into the future.\nLeave a gift in your will\nWant to leave a legacy that will really make a difference? Leaving a gift in your will to Save the Kiwi is a wonderful way to contribute to the return of the kiwi all over New Zealand even when you’re not here to see it.\nMigrant investor donations\nIf you are looking to emigrate to New Zealand via an investor business migration visa and you fit within one of the two investor visa categories (Investor 2 or Investor Plus), part of your investment can be donated as philanthropic gifts to registered charities like Save the Kiwi.", "label": "No"}
