Who ART You? 02
Anita Mosher is my featured artist today! Love her art and her story!
Who ART You?
How did you grow up? I grew up in a home where my mother was an accomplished artist and maintained a working studio her entire life. My earliest memories of her studio where her beautiful portrait and figure life drawings in pastel. Mary Cassatt and Edgar Degas were her favorite painters. Mother was the “picture lady” at my grade school. Once a month she brought in art prints and discussed art history, different styles, techniques and interpretation. Mother also would rent paintings through our local library and hang them on the wall for month at a time. Wouldn’t that be great if libraries still did that?
My maternal grandmother was also an artist. I have two oil paintings that my grandmother painted a century ago that I treasure. My father worked for TWA and we traveled extensively. Wherever we were flew, my parents took me to art museums in every city/country we visited. I was exposed to many different art styles and mediums during my childhood. Art was deeply incorporated as a part of my everyday life.
I became an artist because...... Creating art is all I ever wanted to do. I have a photo of myself at 3 years old in front of my first chalkboard drawings with a huge smile on my face. My mother put me in my first art classes at the Nelson Art Museum in Kansas City at 6 years old. When I look at the projects I did in those classes, I remember how excited and fulfilled I was creating art. I still feel that way every time I have a paintbrush in my hand.
What brought you to art? I believe that there is a reason we don’t see the world in black and white. Color is vital to our daily lives. I find I express myself best in color and shapes that I can not find words for any other way.
Describe your favorite art piece that you had trouble letting go. It was an oil painting early in my professional career of three small rowboats waiting patiently to transport staff to the big yachts further out in the harbor. The sun was setting, the reflected light off of the water and colors of the worn and well used humble little rowboats caught my eye. When I first sketched this painting in, it hit me that this could be a “museum piece” for me. A term I heard from one of my instructors, meaning a keeper...many artists dream about museum shows during their lifetime. I was really happy with my composition and brushwork in that piece and at that time in my career, not sure that I could ever accomplish that again. I reluctantly sent it to a gallery in Santa Fe, NM that I was showing in at the time and when I heard that it sold I felt great regret. I still do. I don’t know who actually owns the piece or where it ended up.
If you could come back and live as any artist, (alive or dead) who would it be and why? Georgia O’Keefe. O’Keefe lead such an interesting life with her independent spirit, travel, relationships and her dramatic and unique works of art. She was the really the first woman artist to receive complete acceptance from the fine art world. O’Keefe refused to be hemmed in to a certain style or subject matter. She explored realism, abstraction, modernism and surrealism and her entire body of work is appreciated by collectors and museums. I also enjoy exploring different styles and subject matters and relate to her artistic restlessness and wanderlust.
Who, what influences your art? I am inspired by color. I find inspiration everywhere, the color combinations and light on a subject whether I am on a hike and see it on the mountain landscape, a figure walking down the street or an apple on my kitchen counter. Painting is my interpretation of the moment and how I describe it to the viewer.
What has art taught you? Art has taught me to trust and believe in myself and my own intuition and most of all, incredible gratitude for this beautiful, messy world we are privileged to experience. The beauty and complexity of nature and my chance to witness it, remind me to lace up my boots and wander as long as I am able.
Favorite/best resources as an artist? I collect other artists work whom I admire and want to learn from. In addition, I have a large library of art books that I refer to. Instagram and Facebook make it easy to check out what is happening in the art world.
What becomes a magical instrument in your hands? A palette knife is my magical go to tool whether a painting is going well or not. When I get too tight or need textural contrast or interest, my assortment of palette knives changes the visual conversation with just a few strokes.
What medium do you use? Why? I am a dedicated oil painter. Oils suit my personality. Oil paints are the most forg | [

I just run my business(if you want to call it that lol) out my home so I am not relaly a business savvy person. Do you make clients pay for their cakes when they order them? Or do you make them pay half and then the other half at pickup/delivery time? Or do you let them pay all of it at pickup/delivery time? Just curious what everybody else out there is doing! Thanks!
I picked a dollar level of $75. Anything under $75 could be paid in full at time of pickup. Anything over $75 required a 50% deposit with final payment due at time of pickup.
Wedding cakes had to be paid in full 2 weeks prior.
Commercial clients (businesses) had to give me a company credit card or issue a check in advance. I had a SHORT list of commercial clients who I permitted to be on Accounts Receivable, meaning I rec'd a 50% payment up front and the other 50% would be sent to me from their accounting dept within 30 days from delivery. (Like I said.... this was a SHORT list of catering clients!)
You'll get lots of ideas and suggestions, but bottom line is you pick a method that works best for you and how you choose to operate.
I get a deposit on all of my cakes. For all occasion cakes the deposit holds the date and the balance is due a week before delivery or if its not much of a balance I have taken it at the time of delivery. Wedding cakes always a deposit and the balance is due 3 weeks prior.
cake orders under $100 require full payment at time of order. orders over $100 require 50% deposit at time of placing order with the balance due 2 wks prior to delivery and 3 wks for wedding cakes. signed contracts are required for ALL orders.
Payment in advance three weeks before or the oven doesn't get turned on. If it was a last-minute order and I still felt like doing it, I'd require payment in cash in advance, no bouncy bouncy checks, thank you very much.
33% deposit at time of order, paid in full two weeks before cake is to be delivered.
Short notice orders, paid in full cash or money order.
Payment in advanced. That way you won't loose money for those who never
pick their cakes up or those who change their minds.
I learned the hard way, when I got stuck with cakes that were never picked up. Full payment for all cakes under $100 and 50% deposit for cakes over $100, with balance paid at least 1 week before the event.
I have only run into two customers that said, I don't want to pay upfront and I kindly told them that is my policy.
Thanks so much for the advice ladies! I am going to give it a try with clients paying 50% at the time of the order and then the other 50% at pickup/delivery time. I am just worried lately that with the economy like it is that people won't show up to get their cakes. Thanks again!
I dunno, I think with the economy most people aren't going to leave you with a deposit and not pick up their cake. haha.
I have a more "risky" method than some but so far its worked great.
I take a $50 deposit to reserve the date and the rest is either payable 10 days in advance (if a delivery) or in cash when they pick it up (or can pay online before pickup if they want to use plastic).
I always confirm the cake the week in advance too. Ever since I started doing deposits several years ago, I've never had anyone stand me up, and I've only had two people back out (before I made the cake) due to problems and I kept the deposit.
So its worked for me, I guess, so far! I chose the $50 deposit so that it would not "break" the customer if something did come up and cause them to have to cancel. I realize part of that is to atone for any orders you have to turn down on their account...but its okay for now.
I require payment in advance via PayPal. I give the client 48 hours to make the payment, during which time I will not give up their date to another customer. Since I started this, I haven't had any problems with payment.
This policy has evolved over the last couple of years. When I first started, I accepted payment upon delivery, but after I had to chase payments down from customers several times, I went to the advance payment via PayPal system. I had to institute the 48-hour rule when several customers didn't pay their bills after a week or more, and didn't tell me they had changed their minds about ordering from me until I called them to remind them to pay.
I don't do wedding cakes, so my cake orders generally are not very high- | [

Concrete Degradation: Why You Should Care
By Sarah Doenmez for C-10 Research and Education Foundation, 16 April 2015
- WHERE IS CONCRETE USED IN NUCLEAR POWER PLANTS? WHY SHOULD I CARE?
- WHY DOES CONCRETE DEGRADE?
- WHAT IS ASR?
- EVALUATING THE EXTENT OF CONCRETE DEGRADATION: WE NEED TO KNOW WHAT’S ON THE INSIDE
- C-10 RESEARCH & EDUCATION FOUNDATION HAS TAKEN ACTION
- WALLS FOR 100 YEARS, WASTE FOR MILLIONS OF YEARS
- WHAT YOU CAN DO:
I. Where is Concrete used in nuclear power plants? Why should I care?
Nuclear power plants use a lot of concrete to shield people and the environment from the radioactivity that is created in the production of the electricity. Every reactor has a containment dome made of concrete, as well as shielding walls, storage facilities, floors, and other structures. Most if not all structures for the storage of nuclear waste are made of concrete too. Concrete walls are considered the primary way of keeping the radiation created by nuclear power plants out of our world.
“Not only is concrete used in nuclear power stations, but it is also an issue for spent fuel pools, dry cask storage, burial of nuclear waste – whether a “facility” like WIPP, or burying it in concrete lined trenches or burying concrete casks in unlined trenches. Also it may be used for above ground temporary storage of nuclear waste.” (Nuclear Power Stations Concrete Damage) Concrete is used extensively in nuclear waste storage facilities.
However, our nuclear power plants are aging and the concrete structures that form their structures are showing signs of age. Depending on where the plant is, the signs can be different.
Seabrook in particular is known to have Tier 2 level cracks. These are cracks which are actively expanding. In 2010 it was found that there are cracks in the walls at Seabrook Nuclear Power Plant in NH. The cracks are thin but, as a recent report says, “by the time they are visible, the degradation is usually at an advanced stage…ASR capable of being detected visually, however, is probably in a fairly advanced stage of development.“ (William, Xi, Naus 2013 83, 88-89) 131 cracks have been visually detected in the walls at Seabrook, as noted in an NRC document.
The cracks have been found in all major structures.
Seabrook has not yet fully inspected the containment building and not inspected the building where the fuel rods are kept, but is scheduled to do so in 2015. It is expected that there will be signs of cracking there too.
Seabrook is the first nuclear power plant known to have ASR: Alkali-Silica Reaction, a form of concrete degradation.
The concrete that protects us from the radioactive by products of nuclear energy is crumbling.
III. Why Does Concrete Degrade?
There are different factors that contribute to the degradation of concrete: contact with aggressive water (water which is high in certain chemicals), contact with salt, changes in temperature, contact with radioactivity. Some factors affect the structure of the atoms in the concrete. Others affect the paste that holds concrete together, others create space between the concrete and the paste. All concrete degrades over time, and degrades in different ways. Different types of degradation can affect the strength, elasticity, ductility, and load-bearing capacity of concrete.
One significant conclusion reached in a study done for the NRC shows that temperature changes, either up or down, can cause degradation in concrete, and that such temperature changes take place in nuclear power reactors. “Elevated temperatures have two different effects on concrete. One involves phase transformations of the concrete constituents under high temperatures; the other refers to mechanical damage in the form of spalling. Both effects may result in significant deterioration of the stiffness, strength, and ductility of concrete and concomitant loss of load-bearing capacity. Phase transformations depend primarily on the temperature level, but not on the rate of temperature changes. Spalling damage occurs under high heating or cooling rates. A moderate elevation in temperature can occur in concrete exposed to gamma radiation.“ (William, Xi, Naus 2013 1) The radiation in a nuclear power plant causes temperatures to rise. We can be sure that this type of degradation is occurring in nuclear power plants.
Another significant finding in the study is that the radioactivity in a power plant can cause changes in the atoms of the elements which form the concrete, as well as in the water in the paste that holds the concrete together.
“Interactions between nuclear radiation and the internal structure of concrete produce geometric changes of the structure resulting from displacements of atoms from their lattice sites and phase transformations of the | [

Brewster insists Gophers close to succeeding
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) -- Toward the end of last week's loss, Tim Brewster consoled quarterback Adam Weber on the sideline while fans at TCF Bank Stadium called for the coach's firing in the background.
The image was fitting for the Gophers and the huge hole they're in, because Brewster and Weber have felt the wrath of frustrated followers more than anyone else in the program over these last four years.

Heavy snowfalls on the way with a record-breaking spell of cold weather
So the big freeze continues, as we hit a fourth week of severe wintry weather.
Katesbridge in Northern Ireland recorded a new low of -17.8C last Tuesday morning, with North Wales seeing heavy snow the following night.
Anglesey had several inches of fresh snow by Wednesday morning, while many parts of the Midlands were also hit by snowfalls.
Rainbands coming in from the Atlantic in the next 24 hours look set to bring heavy snowfalls (Above, the River Severn frozen on Christmas Day)
Other parts of Europe also struggled in the freezing temperatures and heavy snow, notably Paris and Frankfurt.
Heathrow Airport ground to a halt last weekend because of a sudden dumping of snow and severe icing on the aircraft.
Conditions are set to change, but there could yet be a sting in the tail.
Rainbands coming in from the Atlantic in the next 24 hours look set to bring heavy snowfalls as they meet the very cold reservoir of air across central and eastern parts of Britain.
Eventually the less cold air will dominate, but with temperatures for most remaining below normal for the rest of December this will be a record-breaking spell of cold weather.

This tutorial has two sections. The first contains the most common NFL bets. These include the spread, total and moneyline bets. Winning sports bettors stick these bets. They’re the most profitable in the long haul.
The second section outlines exotic NFL bets. These include the parlay, teaser, if bet, parlay card and props. Be careful! They all come with a higher house edge. Smart handicappers only place these wagers when they think they have an advantage.
Easy NFL Bets
1. NFL Spread Betting
Bet is made on the expected score difference.
Taking the Underdog
Add the spread to the underdog’s final score. The underdog wins if the sum is greater than the favorite’s final score.
Taking the Favorite
Subtract the spread from the favorite’s score. The favorite wins if the difference is greater than the underdog’s final score.
Identifying the Spread
The spread is the smaller of two numbers next to each team. The larger number is the total.
Sportsbook odds specify the juice to the right of the spread. This is the amount of money you bet to win $100. Assume -110 when no number is given. -110 is standard odds or full juice.
NFL Spread Example
New York 3½ -112
Green Bay 44½
- Bettor chooses favorite New York Giants. They must win by 3.5 points.
- The favorite’s juice is -112. Lay $112 to win $100.
- Giants win the game 24-21.
- Bet wins if favorite’s score minus spread is greater than underdog’s score.
Result: Giants 24 – 3.5 = 20.5. 20.5 is less than Packers’ 21. Green Bay covers spread.
Favorite bettors lose. Underdog bettors win.
Note: Tie bets are possible when the spread is a whole number, for example 3, 6, 7 or 9. Your bet will be returned if the final result ties the spread.
Consider the example above with New York as the 3 point favorite. A final score of 24-21 means New York tied the spread. The final 3 point difference (24-21) equaled the 3 point line. Bets for the both the favorite Giants and underdog Packers would be returned.
Watch our spread betting video and read our complete spread tutorial here. You’ll also find NFL key numbers, strategies, spread to moneyline converversion and other insights.
2. NFL Total Betting
Sportsbook estimates a combined point total. Bettors decide whether final result will be over or under this number. Final point total includes overtime result.
Identifying the Total
The total is the larger of two numbers next to each team. The smaller number is the spread. Sportsbooks specify the total bet’s juice to the right of the line.
Choosing a Side
One side of the bet may have different juice than the other. NFL betting odds will abbreviate over as “o” and under as “u”. The more expensive side will be provided. For example, 41 o-117 means anyone betting over 41 will lay $117 to win $100.
Assume -110 when no number is given. That means the juice for both the over and under is -110. Bettors taking either side will lay $110 to win $100.
NFL Total Example
New Orleans 41
- The total line is 41. The over and under both have -110 juice because no other value was indicated.
- Over bettors believe the final total will be greater than 41. They lay $110 to win $100.

Lubbock Christian wins women’s Division II title
Lubbock Christian’s Nicole Hampton and Kelsey Hoppel spent last season on the bench, hoping to play for a national championship this year.
The plan worked — to perfection.
Hoppel scored 27 points, Hampton nearly had a quadruple-double and the Lady Chaps beat Alaska Anchorage 78-73 on Monday for their first Division II women’s basketball title.
The seniors combined for 28 of Lubbock Christian’s 38 second-half points after they redshirted last year so they would be eligible for the Lady Chaps’ first year of postseason NCAA eligibility.
“I’m so glad we sat out because I wouldn’t here today, we wouldn’t be here today if we hadn’t. It was such a good move by coach (Steve) Gomez,” Hampton said. “There’s no better way to end your career.”
Hampton had 22 points, 13 rebounds, nine assists and seven steals and was named the tournament’s Most Outstanding Player. Hoppel made four 3-pointers and collected three assists and six steals on her way to the all-tournament team.
Led by its dynamic duo, Lubbock Christian (35-0) finished off the third perfect season ever in Division II.
“We had a storybook year and to fight off a team like that for 40 minutes really makes it special,” Gomez said.
Alaska (38-3) was led by Megan Mullings, who had 23 points and 12 rebounds, and Jessica Madison, who scored 14 points. They also made the all-tourney team along with Jen Gemma of Bentley.
But after breaking the Division II single-season record for wins, the Seawolves came up one short of their ultimate goal.
It wasn’t for lack of effort. They had a 47-30 rebounding edge, a 20-5 advantage on second-chance points and a 19-2 scoring edge for their reserves.
Alaska trailed 71-57 with 4:55 left before putting together an impressive comeback.
“We had decided at the timeout that we had to get stops, that’s what we had done all year,” Mullings said, fighting off tears during the postgame interview. “So we decided that if we played crazy, out of control defense, things would swing our way.”
Alaska responded by forcing three straight turnovers and when Adrianna Dent banked in a 3 with 1:16 to go, the deficit was down to 73-69.
Hampton answered with a 12-foot jumper, and then wrestled the ball away from the Seawolves after Lubbock Christian missed the second of two free throws. She followed with two more foul shots to seal the victory — even if nobody on the floor was convinced it was over yet.
“You really want to wait until that final buzzer goes off,” Hoppel said. “When it went off, it was like a happy cry.”
A moment that made everything worth it.
“It’s really incredible. It’s sad because you’re leaving your family,” Hampton said. “But there’s no better way to end my senior year.” | [

Product InformationBack to top
iC-PT 2613 is an optical sensor IC with integrated photosensors whose signals are converted into voltages by low-noise transimpedance amplifiers. Precise voltage comparators with hysteresis are used to generate the digital signals, supplied to the output pins via differential +/- 4 mA push-pull drivers.
The built-in LED power control with its 40 mA driver stage permits a direct connection of the encoder LED. Regardless of aging or changes in temperature the received optical power is kept constant. An external resistor presets the photocurrent operating point and thus the desired illumination level.
Selection input SEL chooses for three different operating modes: regular A/B operation, A/B operation with 2-fold interpolation, or analog operation. With analog operation the amplified signal voltages are available at the outputs for inspection and monitoring encoder assembly.
Typical applications of iC-PT devices are incremental encoders for motor feedback and commutation. To this end, device version iC-PT 2613 provides differential A/B tracks and a differential index track, each consisting of multiple photo sensors. The layout of the signal amplifiers is such that there is an excellent paired channel matching, eliminating the needs for signal calibration in most cases.
Additionally, three more tracks are provided to generate motor commutation information for the U, V and W outputs, for instance with 90 degree phase shift to operate 4-phase brushless motors (period count and phase shift can be varied by the code disc applied).

Thinking about grabbing a tall coffee or an energy drink to perk you up after a morning workout? Caffeine can be a good thing, registered Baylor College of Medicine dietitian Roberta Anding says, but moderation is important.
High calories coffee drinks, tea with milk or energy drinks should be avoided when trying to get an energy fix, she said.
“My preference would be unsweetened tea with lemon or honey as a natural sweetener. Turn to that for your energy drink and you’ll get the combination of good nutrition and the desired caffeine,” she said.

Once 2-factor authentication is set up you can perform a couple of actions from the 2-factor authentication menu.
- If you are using an Authenticator app for verification and have lost your device you can "Change Authenticator Device" which will generate a new set of codes for you and allow you to scan a new QR code to install on another mobile device.
- You can also "Disable 2-factor Authentication" although it is not recommended. If your organization enforces 2-factor authentication you will be forced to set it up again when you next log in.
The above describes the process to change or disable your own 2-Factor Authentication. To learn how to disable another user's 2FA, click here: Disabling a User's 2-Factor Authentication.

MARINE SPILL RESPONSE
A comprehensive study assessing current marine-spill preparedness and response capabilities was released by the Province today. The study also outlines necessary improvements to achieve a world-class system to ensure B.C.'s coast is protected from potential marine spills. Nuka Research, an international expert in spill preparedness and response, had been commissioned by the provincial government to undertake the study so B.C. could better understand the federal government's ability to deal with a spill off the west coast. The West Coast Spill Response Study contains three volumes, including: Volume 1 - An assessment of the existing marine-spill prevention and response regime in place for B.C. Volume 2 - A vessel traffic study assessing the current and potential levels of shipping on the west coast of Canada and the current volume of hydrocarbons being shipped or used as fuel. Volume 3 - An analysis to identify international best practices and the elements required for establishing a world-class marine spill preparedness and response system. "While we respect federal jurisdiction over marine spills, we must ensure B.C.'s interests are being met, and that means adding more resources to protect our coast,” said Mary Polak, Minister of Environment. “This study is essential to informing our discussions with the federal government in building a world-class marine spill response system."

John Dane III presented TY Offshore to the maritime industries. The re-branding of the company from Trinity Offshore to TY Offshore is intended to provide clear market positioning for the leading Mississippi-based designer and builder of commercial tugs, offshore barges, oil spill response, patrol and oil field support vessels from 10 meters to 95 meters (33’ to 312’) in length. The name change is also intended to delineate the company from Dallas, Texas-based Trinity Industries
According to the Coast Guard, the Marine Spill Response Corporation (MSRC) oil recovery vessel VIRGINIA RESPONDER began skimming operations, however, recoverable oil is widely dispersed and the amount recovered has been minimal to date. A helicopter has been flying throughout the day to locate patches of oil and direct the skimming vessel. The oil spill recovery vessel has been on-scene since Monday prepared to recover oil.
Two technical experts from Maritime New Zealand (MNZ) have flown to the U.S. at the invitation of one of the oil spill response companies assisting with the clean-up of the Gulf of Mexico spill. An oil spill equipment technician and a response planning officer from MNZ’s Marine Pollution Response Service (MPRS) have been seconded to support the Deepwater Horizon spill response. They will be working for Oil Spill Response Ltd (OSR)
The American Salvage Association (ASA) and the Spill Control Association of America (SCAA) have established an Affiliate Membership relationship. The Spill Control Association of America was organized in 1973 to actively promote the interests of all groups within the spill response community. The organization represents spill response contractors, manufacturers, distributors, consultants, instructors, government & training institutions and corporations working in the industry.

Shipping companies and oil-handling facilities should take immediate steps to increase the number of boats available to respond to oil spills in Puget Sound and along Washington's coast, according to Ecology Director Jay Manning. A newly released study commissioned by the Department of Ecology (Ecology) found that there are not enough vessels available to simultaneously deploy oil booms, transport oil-spill equipment and supplies
In anticipation of the winter storm which came on the heels of Hurricane Sandy, spill response teams based on New York’s Staten Island stopped work for just a day. NOAA’s Office of Response and Restoration is continuing aerial surveys of Arthur Kill, the waterway spanning New Jersey and New York which experienced several hazardous spills in the wake of Hurricane Sandy. These surveys serve as reconnaissance for responders managing the oil spill cleanup.

More clouds than sun as a front lingers this week
A front lingers nearby keep us cooler today.
- Front sags south with limited showers TUE-WED
- Increasing temperatures this week (90s)
REST OF TODAY
A front is lingering nearby with clouds that will decrease into the evening. Smoke from wildfires out west has become embedded in the atmosphere to our west, which will lead to another gorgeous, orange sunset. Lows tonight slip to the upper 60s along with muggy conditions. Low clouds will fill back in late tonight along with areas of fog.
A slow-moving front will push south of the area into the Carolinas early Tuesday. With it nearby, skies remain partly cloudy to mostly cloudy at times with highs in the mid 80s. By late in the day, drier air will help clear skies out leading to another deep, orange sunset thanks to the smoke overhead from the west coast fires. Any shower chances should remain isolated and confined mainly in the mountains.
WEDNESDAY - THURSDAY
Skies remain partly to mostly sunny Wednesday allowing temperatures to climb to the upper 80s to low 90s. A front will arrive in the mountains late in the day bringing a slight shower/storm chances mainly north of I-64 late. If we’re lucky, a few of the showers may reach as far south as Highway 460 by Wednesday evening. However, that chance remains pretty low at this point. Thursday also remains hot and fairly dry.
FRIDAY - SATURDAY - SUNDAY
Several fronts will take aim at the area from the northwest into the weekend before moving into North and South Carolina and fading away. This is a fairly typical pattern for Summer and often leads to nothing more than pop-up showers and storms along with muggy, warm temperatures. The first front arrives late Friday and another Saturday.
The one Sunday may stall just close enough to the region to deliver a slightly higher chance of showers Sunday into Monday. Even then, the pattern likely won’t bring anything more than spotty to scattered storm coverage.
Afternoon highs return to the upper 80s to low 90s. | [

I've read a couple posts related to this, but I still need some help.
The situation is we have different fees for transporting people from the airport to different destinations (with different fees).
We would like to quote the full price for different destinations (I imagine in a products form) but charge a 25% deposit for booking the service, with the rest of the amount paid in cash to the driver.
Ideally the client would have:
1) Total amount service will cost
2) Amount due to the driver (as information)
3) The 25% deposit we are charging as a deposit (payable through PayPal)
Suggestion on how to set something like this up? | [

THE END OF THE OLD STILLWELL AVENUE STATION
LEFT: Inside the 1925 D-Type Triplex
To celebrate ringing up Number 45 recently [those were he days!–2012], Your Webmaster purchased a new G4 IMac, some new web software (which hopefully will result in a Forgotten revamp in the near future), an ice cream cake, and a ticket to a Transit Museum Nostalgia Train excursion. It turned into a visit to some classic Coney landmarks and an elegy for the soon-to-be-renovated Stillwell Avenue Terminal, which will soon be a high-tech, 21st Century railhub. But not before Forgotten NY chronicles its past.
The D-Type Triplex subway cars were used exclusively on the BMT, which has characteristics such as car and platform widths that distinguish it from the older Interborough Rapid Transit, or the IRT. The Triplexes were made of steel, the BMT being in need of subway cars that could travel in the tunnels. Wooden cars were made illegal underground after the November 1918 Malbone Street Wreck, which had killed nearly 100 passengers, although they could be found on the Myrtle Avenue El until 1969.

According to subway historian and Forgotten host Paul Matus of rapidtransit.net…
This was Culver Depot, one of Stillwell’s predecessors, located just north of today’s Aquarium. It served the Brighton and Culver Lines until the Big Terminal was opened. It must be prior to Labor Day, since straw boaters are still the requisite headgear. Note the BRTRR Depot sign. The letters stand for Brooklyn Rapid Transit Railroad. In 1919, the BRT, which owned and operated Brooklyn subways and surface lines, was approaching bankruptcy. It was heavily in debt and the horrific Malbone Street Wreck, which had happened at Prospect Park on November 1, 1918, had pretty much pushed it over the edge of insolvency. In 1923, a new company was formed…Brooklyn-Manhattan Transit, the BMT, which bought the BRT’s assets and assumed its operations.
As for the Stillwell Avenue Terminal, it was gradually pared down from its grand beginnings until by the 1960s, it was a shell of its former self. Most of the buildings had been torn down, as well as its trolley station, and peeling paint and a dark, dirty and occasionally dangerous arcade was all that was left. But we’re getting a little ahead of ourselves.
Joining Forgotten Fans Clark and Mary (from Hoboken a New Jersey mecca of rail transit) at the 59th Street/Columbus Circle station, we joined about a hundred other railfans and began our journey south along the Eighth Avenue IND line. The Eighth Avenue was the first IND line to be built, in the 1920s, while the Sixth Avenue line was the last, finally compeleted in 1940. IND was built by the City to compete with the then-private BMT and IRT elevated lines, and pretty much succeeded in putting the Manhattan els out of business.
Mary repeatedly attested to the overall comfortability of rattan seating.
Until digital displays arrived in the 1980s, subway signage was pretty much changed the old fashioned way, with hand cranks.
The Bridge/Tunnel signs were important. They also showed on the outside of the train. This was an innovation, since in the days before the BMT Triplexes, passengers had to read two different sets of signs on a BMT car to figure out both the train’s Brooklyn route and whether a train would use the Montague Street tunnel (the long way to Manhattan) or the Manhattan Bridge (the short cut). With the Triplexes, all that information was in one handy place.
The Triplex rolled on, switching over to the Sixth Avenue Line (the current F line) at Jay Street and rolled through the 1954 connection between Church and Ditmas Avenues in Brooklyn, which connected the BMT Culver Line, which had originally connected to the demolished Fifth Avenue El, and the IND Sixth Avenue.
Even though the Triplexes are made of steel, its designers were still able to incorporate a fair amount of detail. Poles used by standees are coated with white porcelain, warm incandescent lighting was used, and the cars were kept pretty cool, except on the hottest days, by overhead fans (but Patrick Ewing would have had to watch out).
Using the Culver, which runs south down McDonald Avenue and then accompanies the Brighton Line west through the Luna Park Houses (named for a late, lamented Coney Island amusement park) the Triplex arrived at Stillwell Avenue, one of the busiest terminals in New York City. Subway trains run east (the Culver and | [

It’s no secret that people enjoy the sight of a well-decorated fence. Ever since the dawn of time, humanity has enjoyed the fine art of decoration– we decorate our bodies, our clothes, our cars– why should our homes be any different? Fences are the first thing people see when they look at a house. And as they say, “first impressions are important,” so it’s a no-brainer that you should decorate your fence in a way that will not only give a first impression but a lasting impression upon your neighbors and passerby. Be the envy of your neighborhood!
Placement Makes Perfect
The art of decorating a fence is, well, an art! Decoration itself is an art form. Too much of one thing can leave an object crowded-looking and achieves the opposite effect of decoration’s intent– to create a pleasing aesthetic– and ends up looking tacky instead. In addition to choosing the right amount of decorations, you need to put your decorations up in a place where they’re most pleasing to the eye. To do this, you need to have a good idea as to what kind of fence you’ll be working with in relation to what kind of materials you want to use.
Tansel is a popular decoration tool for Christmastime and sees some use during Easter and Saint Patrick’s Day, depending on the color. It’s a very versatile material, which can be intertwined between the posts of a fence, but doesn’t work as well for fences with large gaps between their posts, or fences with very small gaps. Chain link fences would be a wonderful fit for tansel and could be decorated in all the variations of red, green, and gold that you desire.
If you want a decoration that will last year-round, you can experiment with decor that isn’t tied to one particular time. Depictions of flowers and animals are popular baubles year-round, and are limited only by your creativity! You don’t need a big budget to decorate year-round. Many decorations can be nailed to the side of a fence, such as aluminum sunflowers, or glass jars, which hold flowers within them. To best achieve this goal, look for a kind of flower that doesn’t wilt out-of-season, or buy a fake one instead.
Tasteful, Not Tacky
There’s a right time for everything. Just as you throw away the Christmas tree, for example, after Christmas is over, you don’t want your seasonal decorations overstaying their welcome. And you don’t want to rock your shamrocks during Easter, do you? Hang up some colorful egg decorations during Eastertime, and keep your Santa hats firmly planted on their posts during the winter, but keep in mind that there is a limited time for such decorations. Luckily, holiday cheer will be there– just as your decorations surely will– next year, and it won’t be long for the next holiday to take its place. For a more reserved tone of decor, snowflakes and other objects associated with the wintertime can be used instead of Santa or a Nativity set. This is a rule of thumb for every season– dragonflies and flowers for springtime, depictions of children playing under the sun for the summer, multicolored falling leaves for autumn. If you don’t want to hang a decoration, you can paint one, instead! A well-painted fence is the delight of the whole neighborhood. | [

Analog security cameras have long been the standard type of camera used in surveillance systems, but IP cameras have surged in popularity over the last five years.
As the technology has become more readily available and more surveillance companies have invested in developing this technology, IP cameras have dramatically increased in quality and decreased in price which has made them more affordable than ever!
Higher Resolution and HD Video
Megapixel IP cameras can capture High Definition Video (HD Video) and provide greater detail improving identification. A 2 megapixel camera is an excellent choice for capturing license plates and can cover a 24 foot wide point of entry or exit.
IP Camera popularity is on the rise and it is estimated that over 60% of all security camera systems sold over the next few years will be IP based. The advantages of IP cameras over analog cameras are below.
When monitoring an area, a megapixel camera provides superior image quality compared to analog cameras. We illustrate this below by comparing an analog, 1.3MP, and 2MP image, the license plate in the 2MP image can be easily identified when zoomed into, but this is not the case at an analog resolution.
When you need a clear shot of what a person looks like, a megapixel camera image can provide a level of detail that can’t be matched by an analog camera. The improved pixel count also allows for the use of ePTZ technology. | [

The U.S. Navy said it completed the first successful arrested landing with an unmanned aircraft using Northrop Grumman's X-47B Unmanned Combat Air System (UCAS) demonstrator. The landing was conducted May 4 at Naval Air Station in Patuxent River, Md.
Arrested landing procedures feature the incoming aircraft extending its landing hook to catch a heavy cable extended from the landing area. The cable then brings the aircraft a rapid controlled stop.
With the X-47B, Northrop Grumman used a navigation approach to simulate the technique that the Navy will use to land unmanned aircraft on an aircraft carrier at sea.
"This precision, shore-based trap by the X-47B puts the UCAS Carrier Demonstration [UCAS-D] program on final approach for a rendezvous with naval aviation history," said Capt. Jaime Engdahl, the Navy's UCAS program manager. "It moves us a critical step closer to proving that unmanned systems can be integrated seamlessly into Navy carrier operations."
Later this month, the X-47B is scheduled to undergo sea-based aircraft carrier trials. According to the Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR), the X-47B will not be used for "operational use," but rather to develop a concept of operations for use in future unmanned carrier based aircraft programs.

The multiple light scenes in the Interact Sports system can be played back to meet different lighting standards that are required by rugby as well as football associations.
The Kobe Misaki stadium, one of the stadiums used for the Rugby World Cup 2019 tournament in Japan, has been fitted out with LED lighting from Signify (formerly Philips Lighting).
The Philips ArenaVision LEDs that have been installed, are controlled by Signify’s Interact Sports connected lighting system. They allow for the programming of multiple light scenes to adjust lighting standards to the different sports that are played in the stadium. A total of 404 LEDs were installed.
According to Signify, the lighting system in the 30,132-all seater stadium was commissioned via an innovative method using robotic measurement and includes video aiming and laser scan.
“We’re very proud to light up Kobe Misaki stadium for the world’s biggest rugby tournament held in Japan,” said Thierry Jean Baptiste Chapiteau, global sub segment manager sports and arenas at Signify.
“The players get perfect lighting on the field and the legion of rugby fans around the world, watching a match on TV, can see every detail in the highest definition. Fans in the stadium can enjoy light shows adding to the incredible atmosphere.”
The stadium is also the venue for the premier Japanese professional football league. The multiple light scenes in the Interact Sports system can be played back to meet different lighting standards that are required by rugby as well as football associations.
“The players get perfect lighting on the field and rugby fans around the world, watching a match on TV, can see every detail in the highest definition”
The new energy-efficient LED lighting also uses less electricity compared to conventional lighting, saving 45 per cent in electricity costs.
By introducing the robotic measurement method, laser scanning and a video aiming system, Signify claims installation time was ‘drastically’ shortened, and accuracy and quality were improved.
The whole process from dismantling the HID luminaires to the installation of the upgraded LED system was completed in only 65 days. In addition, higher protection to the grass pitch was guaranteed during installation due to the robotic measurement.
“We were impressed with Signify’s commissioning and engineering methods, which were very new to us. The new technologies were very useful and necessary to complete our project smoothly,” added Takayuki Nakamoto, assistant manager, Kinden Corporation, an M&E contractor appointed by Kobe City for this project.
“We’re very happy to work together in this project and would like to thank the project members within Signify.”
Alongside Kobe Misaki stadium, Signify is also responsible for the lighting Aichi’s Toyota stadium where another four matches of the rugby tournament will be played.

The Caisson Assembly for Tritium Safety Study(CATS)
To construct the ITER with high safely and acceptability, the safe tritium confinement is one of the key issues for realizing a fusion reactor, and tritium should be well controlled so that it is not released excessively into the atmosphere and to prevent workers from excess exposure.
In order to understand the tritium behavior in a large space clearly, the Caisson Assembly for Tritium Safety study(CATS)was installed in Tritium Process Laboratory (TPL)/JAERI(Japan Atomic Energy Research Institute, now:QST) in 1998.
The main purposes are followings.
Investigation of tritium behavior in the fusion facility
Demonstration of tritium confinement and detritiation system
Investigation of tritium measurement and analysis
Development of tritium decontamination method and tritium waste processing
Related collaboration researches have been carried out effectively under the CATS program with many universities, such as
lbaraki University, Kyusyu University, National Institute for Fusion Science(NIFS), Shizuoka University, Toyama University, University of Tokyo, Shimizu Corporation, etc. | [

Congrats! Your diamond art creation is now complete. It’s time to display your creation to the world, or at the very least to your guests. Yet, you might be unsure about what to do with your finished works, how to frame them, how to present them as gifts, or how to store your final diamond paintings. There are many options for storing your artwork, so we’ve got you covered. To aid with your creation, you can get Cheap Diamond Art Kits.
What should I do with my diamond artwork after I’m done?
You have a few options for what you can do with your completed diamond art project. Your finished project will enhance your living area whether you choose to hang it as a piece of art or show it in a frame on the wall. Or, you might make a special handcrafted gift out of it and give it to a loved one. Also, you can sell it if you’d like to because diamond art is a distinctive collector item and is growing in popularity. Whatever you want to do with your work in the end, you can always take a photo of it to save it in memory and to signify the accomplishment of finishing your job.
How to preserve diamond artwork?
Use foam board
You need to be able to store your diamond painting carefully without damaging its integrity and accidently dropping the beads when you’re ready to hang it, whether you’re choosing a safe spot for it or intend to present it as a gift. When you’re finished, foam board is a quick and affordable way to protect your paintings. Use two identically sized flat foam panels, or spend money on one with a tri-fold.
Simply set your diamond painting on one board, then place the other board on top, and tape the two pieces together to use the two flat foam board approach. While quick and simple, this method may make it more challenging to access your artwork. When using tri-fold foam board, place the painting flat on the centre block before folding the edges down to cover the top. While storing paintings, keep the boards flat. You might think about pressing the flaps down.
Make your own combination carrier
You can create your own portfolio vehicle if you want to get very inventive. Simpler designs can be created with cardboard and tape, but more intricate ones require stitching and fabric. You can go big and make some sturdy components that you will use for years to come depending on your crafting abilities and interest, or you can just make a temporary portfolio to help with temporary storage and transport. your depiction of diamonds.
Repurpose cardboard boxes
Repurposing the cardboard box as a storage container is one of the best solutions for how to keep finished diamond artworks. A minimum of one or two cartons that they don’t use or haven’t had a chance to dispose of are almost universally present. So why not recycle it yourself and use it as storage for your diamond paintings instead of shoving it into the attic to be forgotten or throwing it out in the trash? It should serve as a great safekeeper for your project as long as the box is bigger than the artwork. If you place a sheet of plastic in between each object, you can even store numerous diamond artworks at once.
It’s crucial to store your diamond artwork properly to prevent damage and deterioration. Even if you don’t immediately want to hang your work, you should still handle it with care by storing it using one of these techniques. To assist you in creating diamond paintings, you can purchase Diamond Painting for Sale from the app store. | [

Faf du Plessis: ‘I’m going to try and push for as long as I can’
South Africa’s former all-format captain Faf du Plessis says he wasn’t fussed by the two hare-brained bowling moments that cost the team the first T20 against England at Newlands on Friday night.
England, who were measured in their successful chase of 179, capitalised on two errant overs from Heinrich Klaasen and Beuran Hendricks that went for 14 and 28 respectively. England won the game by five wickets to take a 1-0 lead in the three-match series.
Jonny Bairstow, who bludgeoned an unbeaten 86 from 48 balls, was at the heart of that carnage. Du Plessis, who has visited and experienced similar pain in his career, understood what the two bowlers went through, especially Hendricks.
“Experience has told me that in a T20 game, someone is going to go on the night. That’s why we always look for balance with the sixth bowler,” Du Plessis said.
“I won’t look into it too much on the night if one guy goes on the night because it’s the nature of the beast in T20 cricket. In the next game, he can bowl in the exact same areas and he can get a five-for.
“I wouldn’t judge him too harshly as tonight wasn’t his night. He’ll learn from it and he’ll come back very strong.”
Du Plessis, who relinquished the various leadership roles in the wake of a forgettable 2019-20 summer for the national team, top-scored with 58 in an innings that included a spectacular assault on Tom Curran.
His knowledge of Boland Park in Paarl will come in handy in Sunday’s second T20 that South Africa need to win to stay alive in the series, especially with his intimate knowledge of the ground through his success with the Paarl Rocks in the Mzansi Super League.
He led from the front as the team’s senior statements and showed no signs of physical and mental frailties.
“I rely on my brain and my instincts to make a decision as a cricketer and that’s often been my strength. I assessed the wicket, gave myself an opportunity to look at the bowlers and Tom Curran was looking like the type of guy I was looking to take down on the day. You make those decisions on the day,” Du Plessis said.
“I’ve had a very good six months where all of us have had some time to reflect. I used that time to get as mentally fit and strong as possible.
“I found there was a lot that was left in my mind. I wasn’t anywhere close to thinking of stopping playing cricket.
“It showed in the IPL where I was moving around pretty well. I’m going to try and push for as long as I can.”

Vortex Flow Meter Installation
Vortex flow meter is a kind of flow meter that adopts the principle of Karman Vortex Street. It is used to measure the flow of liquids, gases and vapors, and it can also be used to measure turbid liquids containing small particles and impurities. It is widely used in petroleum, chemical, pharmaceutical, papermaking, metallurgy, power, environmental protection, food and other industries.
The vortex flow meter is based on Carmen's vortex street theory. When the fluid flows through a non-linear triangular cylinder block, regular vortex signals are alternately generated on both sides of the block. The separation frequency of the vortex is proportional to the flow velocity of the fluid. The vortex separation frequency is detected by a piezoelectric ceramic element installed behind the block, thereby obtaining the fluid flow rate.
1. Installation site and environment selection
- Try to avoid strong power equipment, high frequency or frequency conversion equipment, and strong power switching equipment.
- Try to avoid the influence of high-temperature heat sources and radiant heat sources; if the flow meter is installed outdoors, shade and rainproof measures should be taken.
- Avoid vibration places and strong corrosive environments as much as possible, and also consider the convenience of installation and maintenance.
2. Appropriate installation position
- For the installation location of vortex flowmeter, try to avoid choosing pipes with strong vibration, otherwise vibration reduction measures must be taken, such as installing shock-absorbing short joints.
- The flow meter can be installed horizontally, vertically, and obliquely. When measuring liquids, you must ensure that the fluid flows from low to high. When measuring gas, the flow direction is unlimited. When measuring steam or high-temperature gas, the pillar of the watch body is at 45 ° to the vertical direction.
3. Vortex flowmeter piping requirements
In order to measure accurately, there must be remaining enough straight pipe sections upstream and downstream of the flow meter installation site. There should be no components that affect the flow velocity distribution of the fluid in the upstream. The figure below shows the minimum straight piping length requirements before and after the flow meter under various pipeline conditions.
4. Grounding requirements
When the vortex flow meter is installed, the meter body should be reliably grounded. If the on-site pipeline does not have a grounding condition, a reliable ground wire should be separately connected to the ground terminal of the instrument case.
5. Installation method and welding
- The inner diameter of the upstream and downstream piping at the instrument installation point should be consistent with the inner diameter of the vortex flow meter, and the sensor should be concentric with the pipeline. The gasket between the sensor and the flange must not protrude into the pipe. The specific installation method is shown in the figure below.
- After the initial installation of the meter body, when the measuring medium is steam or other high-temperature medium, the flange bolts should be re-tightened after the pipe is filled with the medium. The pipe is insulated to avoid damage to the amplifier due to the high ambient temperature.
Please note that: For the vortex flow meter with integrated temperature and pressure compensation, to avoid damage to the pressure sensor due to high temperature or water attack, the pressure valve on the meter body must be closed before the pipeline is filled with fluid. When the pipeline is full of fluid and the working temperature and pressure are reached, the valve can be opened slowly. For the flow meter installed outdoors, the pressure bending pipe and pressure probe part should be insulated! | [

One of the things that my family loves about Sweden is driving through the beautiful countryside. When in Burma, we were primarily constrained to the confines of Yangon and only got out once in a while with a taxi. Coming to Sweden, it was one of my priorities to get a car so that we could independently explore this country, and get lost on their back rural roads. And no matter where we drive, we are bound to see some very quaint churches. Below is a sampling of some of the Swedish country churches we have stumbled across. | [

Quality of Service (QoS) in networking is the approach of managing network resources to lower packet loss as well as reduce network jitter. This innovative technology can address resources by assigning the different types of network data at multiple priority levels.
QoS is usually applied on networks that carry resource-intensive information like:
- Video conferencing
- Voice over IP (VoIP)
- Internet Protocol television (IPTV)
- Streamed media
- Online gaming
These sorts of data need to be transmitted in the shortest time frame to be consumable at the receiving end.
Why does network QoS Matter?
Earlier, a business’ network and communication networks were considered as different entities. The phone calls and teleconferences were managed by an RJ11-connector while the calls were monitored by a PABX system. It works differently from the RJ45-connector that used to link laptops, desktops, as well as servers.
When networks carried only data, speed was not so important. Currently, interactive applications that carry both audio and video have to be delivered across networks at high speeds and without packet loss in delivery speeds.
People now make business calls with the support of video-conferencing applications including Skype, Zoom, and Google Meet, which implement the IP transport protocol for sending and receiving video and audio messages.
To know more about the QoS, it is essential to know RTP.
What is RTP?
RTP is a common protocol used in internet telephony communications to handle the real-time transmissions of both audio & video messages. While RTP doesn’t guarantee the delivery of the data packets as this task is managed by switches and routers.
QoS is a hop-by-hop transport configuration applied to the networking devices to make them identify and prioritize RTP packets. Every device between the sender and recipient(s) must be configured to learn that the packet is a “VIP” one and needs to be pushed in the priority lane.
What happens if we don’t go with QoS in networking?
When the RTP packets are not assigned their priorities they will be delivered through default speeds. In a congested network, the packets need to travel along with the rest of the non-urgent packets. While network latency itself won’t have an impact on the quality of the delivered message, it will impact communication between end-users. At 100ms of latency, they will simply talk on top of one another as the packets arrive out of sync.
Real-time applications clear standard transport level buffering, so there is no process to reassemble packets received in the correct order. Jitter is all about the irregular speed of packets on a network. It can end in packets arriving late and out of order.
- Packet Loss
This is the worst-case situation where we find that a number of packets are lost because of too much congestion on the networking devices. When the output queue of switch or router fills up, a tail drop occurs where the device blocks any new incoming packets until space becomes available for packets to receive.
Best Practices to Follow for QoS
There are numerous practices that organizations should implement when determining their QoS requirements.
- Check that maximum bandwidth limits at the sender interface and security policy are not set too low to avoid any excessive packet discard.
- Identify the ratio at which packets are distributed between existing queues and which queues are used by which services. This surely impacts the latency levels, queue distribution, as well as packet assignment.
- Only place bandwidth ensures specific services. This will clear the possibility of all traffic using the same queue in high-volume scenarios.
- Configure prioritization for all traffic through either type of service-based priority or security policy priority, not both. This will ease the analysis and troubleshooting work.
- Try to reduce the complexity of QoS configuration to guarantee high performance.
- To avail of accurate testing results, implement User Datagram Protocol (UDP), and do not oversubscribe bandwidth throughput.
What are the benefits of QoS?
The main advantage of QoS is that it guarantees the availability of an organization’s network and the applications running on that network. It offers a safe, efficient transfer of information over that network. It also permits organizations to use their current bandwidths more efficiently, rather than upgrading network infrastructure to expand bandwidth.
A wide array of benefits include:
- Mission-critical applications have complete access to the resources they need.
- Easy for the administrators to manage traffic better.
- Organizations can lower costs by removing the need to buy new network infrastructure.
By following QoS mechanisms, network administrators can implement existing resources in an efficient manner and ensure the required level of service without expanding or over-provisioning their networks. Essentially, QoS avoid network congestion by prioritizing business-critical traffic to ensure business run efficiently.

The gastronomic scene of Austria's westernmost provinces is as varied as its landscape: first-rate gourmet restaurants, traditional inns, rustic local taverns, as well as international chains and ethnic cuisine are all part of the mix. In small towns throughout the region restaurants are often the dining rooms of country inns, and there are plenty of these. Austria used to have a reputation for substantial but stereotypical dishes of meat, dumplings and sauerkraut, but things have changed considerably. Gourmet meals are available at many wonderful restaurants, often at much more reasonable prices than is typical of Europe’s high-class dining scene. That said, in many villages you’ll find inns catering largely to local farm workers, where the old favorites are still the order of the day—prepare to be filled rather than thrilled.
Most hotel restaurants will be closed in the off-season, usually November and April. In ski season breakfast is typically served early enough for you to hit the slopes in good time, and dinner is timed so that exhausted skiers can get an early night in preparation for the next day.
Restaurants range from grand-hotel dining salons to little Wirtshäuser, rustic restaurants where you can enjoy hearty local specialties such as Tyroler Gröstl (a skillet dish made of ham or pork, potatoes, and onions, with caraway seeds, paprika and parsley), Knödel (dumpling) soup, or Schweinsbraten (roast pork with sauerkraut), while sitting on highly polished (and rather hard) wooden seats. Don't forget to enjoy some of the fine Innsbruck coffeehouses, famous for their scrumptious cakes and cappuccino. | [

Hello, i did google this and there were results on the process, but the sights weren't clear of exactly what it would accomplish ect. So i'm posting this here, just to be sure of what to do to get my desired results.
OK, Previously being a windows user, i'd make my backups with system image files, and when i had separate partitions it was still good because it would include all partitions including linux. If i ever needed to restore my previous file, i could with my windows recovery disc. I have gone pure linux now though and do not have a windows partition anymore.
What i was wondering, is how do i achieve an equivalent result from linux, where it backs up all partitions, and how to i restore my computer with this image file?
Hey again guys, thanks for the suggestions. I downloaded Clonezilla last night but for some reason my laptop wouldn't boot it; i checked it in desktop and it booted with that, so i guess that won't work. I haven't looked at Acronis yet. Doesn't Linux have some native tools to do this, command line or gui? Even Windows had it's own tool to do this. | [

This is a very sweet and funny movie. It gently pokes fun at class and social differences. It has a liberal romantic view of homelessness that is similar to the romantic view of poverty that Charles Dickens presents. It is close to "Sullivan's Travels" in its humor.
I watched the movie for Gale Storm who became a big television star in the 1950's on "My Little Margie" and "the Gale Storm Show". She is fine, even more natural, relaxed and open in her performance than on the later television shows.
The big surprise for me was Dom Defore as the romantic lead. He played a best friend on Ozzie and Harriet for five years and was the lead on a dismal 60's television comedy called Hazel for five more years. He's actually quite good here.
Victor Moore as the Hobo and Charlie Ruggles as the rich man are delicious. The scenes where they trade places are hilarious. There's a nice chemistry between these two old pros who actually starred in silent movies.
The director, Roy Del Ruth, also started out in silent films as a gag-man and writer for the great Mack Sennett (who discovered Charlie Chaplin). His silent film background contributes to the many delightful visual gags in the film. The first ten minutes could almost be a silent film.
It is a nice family movie, well worth seeing. While times were never as sweet as this movie portrays them, the movie does suggest that a more humane ethic existed at this time than we generally see around us today.

Farmers these days are often accused of paying little heed to wildlife and farming methods can be seen as damaging the countryside rather than nurturing it.
However, a couple in Dumfriesshire have just won a top award for their wildlife-friendly farm, as Derek Proud reports.
Watch his full report below.
The farming couple who own winning Williamwood Farm near Lockerbie have spoken about their happiness that they were chosen for the award.
A farm in Dumfriesshire has been awarded the top prize in the RSPC Nature of Farming Awards.
Williamwood Farm, near Lockerbie, scooped the award after impressing judges with their efforts to make their farm a home for nature.
The farm will now go on to compete against seven other finalists from across the country in a public vote.
The winner will then be decided through a combination of scores from the public vote and an expert panel.
A farm near Lockerbie which was chosen as one of the locations for a diamond jubilee wood last year has won the RSPB's top environmental award in Scotland.
The award recognises the way that wildlife benefits on the farm. | [

The maths of India
He affirmed the diurnal revolution of the earth on its axis; an assertion which is fully borne out by a quotation from one of his works, in a commentary on the "Brahmasphut'a-Siddhanta" of Brahmagupta by Prithudakaswami: "The Earth making a revolution produces a daily rising and setting of the stars and planets". At the same time he thought that this revolving of the earth was produced through the agency of a peculiar current of aerial fluid, or spiritus vector (“wind"), to which he assigned a distance of 150 yojanas (114 miles) from the surface of the earth. In opposition to the generally received opinion, he maintained that the moon, the primary planets, and the stars had no light of their own, and were only illumined by the sun; he consequently knew the true cause of solar and lunar eclipses.
Aryabhatta also ascribed to the epicycles, by which the motion of a planet is represented, a form varying from the circle and nearly elliptic. Moreover, he recognized a motion of the nodes and asides of all primary planets, as well as of the moon, and noticed the motion of the equinoctial and solstitial points, which he restricted, however, to an oscillation within the limits of twenty- four degrees, at the rate of one libration in seventy years. The length of AryabhatYa's sidereal year was 356 days 6 hours 12 minutes and 30 seconds. Aryabhatta stated the diameter of the earth at 1050 yojanas and its circumference at 3300 yojanas (25,080 miles). Hence it appears that he held the proportion of the diameter to the periphery of a circle to be seven to twenty-two, which is a nearer approximation than that of Brahmagupta and S'ridhara, who came after him.
The astronomical sects, of which Arja- bhat't'a is the reputed founder, were distinguished by the name of Audayakas, from Udaya, " rising;" implying that they fixed the beginning of the planetary motions on the meridian of Lanka (Ceylon) at sun-rise, in opposition to the Arddharatrikas, who began the great astronomical cycle at midnight. Aryabhatta is the author of the " Aryasht'- as'ata" (eight hundred couplets in the Arya metre) and the “Das’agitika" (ten stanzas). The “Laghwarya-Siddhanta" is also ascribed to him: but, unfortunately, none of these works have yet been discovered; and we know them only through the numerous quotations from them, with which the works of subsequent writers abound. For an exposition of his numerical system and algebraic doctrine we refer to the article by another renowned scientist called BHASKARA.

DUBLIN, Calif. — A wireless sensor-on-a-plate is giving photomask makers a view inside the manufacturing process, letting them solve critical dimension challenges without work disruption or the need for manual modifications. The MaskTemp Sensor Plate, developed by OnWafer Technologies (www.onwafer.com) features the company's proprietary mobile metrology technology, permitting non-intrusive measuring of critical process zones.
The sensor-on-a-plate technology uses 64 sensors to measure temperature, recording the thermal activity in the process zone of the plate's surface. BakeInfo and PlasmaInfo features take the MaskTemp data and plot it in statistical process control (SPC) style for comparing individual runs to trends.
MaskTemp's MatchTool feature provides a go/no-go decision by matching the run data to user-selected SPC tolerances. If the process is out of spec, or the user wants to look at the process more closely, the OnView feature provides a suite of fault-detection and classification screens to analyze the root cause (plotting temperature versus time or temperature versus distance from center).
The technology, says OnWafer, is available for plasma etch, resist processing, e-beam writers, scanners, and wet-processing steps. | [

CAR PARKING GUIDE SYSTEM WITH ANDROID BASED SOUND USING ULTRASONIC SENSORS AND ARDUINO
The Android-based parking guide system is a parking system that can be used by the driver of the car as a guide tool with the aim that the application can help reverse parking perfectly. This parking guide application is made for cars that do not yet have parking sensor features. Parking guide application is made using Java and C programming language with software used by Android Studio and arduino IDE software. The implementation of this parking guide application is directly installed in a car that does not have a sensor. Some of the tests performed on the parking guide application are testing on different devices (different smartphones) the parking guide application can run on each device (6 smartphones). Testing the connection time with the condition of the open and closed windshield produces a difference in the connection time, the connection time with the windshield is open faster than the closed car glass. Tests with different time sensors still work during the day and night and can still detect the distance of the object. Testing with corner objects, sensors sometimes detect objects. The sensor does not detect the parking limit because the size of the parking limit is shorter than the sensor. In the user test using the average Likert scale the results obtained were 74.84%

Editor’s note: We tested the 2010 R1200GS on pavement, and our own Luc Brière (a.k.a Doctor Dirt) got his hands on the bike during the first road test. We thought we should give him the chance to really put it through its paces in his own private playground, the unpaved roads in the Bois-Francs region of deep Quebec that he flatly refuses to show us. Here’s the account of what happened during the second sliding-oriented test.
|What the properly equipped BMW adventurer must wear - padded, waterproof and livable in hot weather. (Photo: BMW)
During a brief first ride in the rain, I noted how BMW had improved the big GS for 2010 by fitting the sporty twin-cam HP2
engine, toned down for this model more reminiscent of enduro bikes while proving distinctly punchier than the old, pre-2010 engine. Torque, for instance, is typically constant on this type of machine, but on the 2010 version it starts off strong and then increases measurably along with the rpm, which on gravel roads allows you to use the engine to actually turn the bike, much like a “Drift” car does.
A first test focusing on the road
The 2009 1200GS
’s calmer engine didn’t allow for some real dirt riding techniques, which exponentially increases fun and safety when zipping over soft terrain. And contrary to popular lore, if you do leave the modern ABS brakes and traction control on, the performance/safety ratio goes up a large notch, almost surprisingly so, on pavement as well as wet earth.
However, during my initial test ride over sodden dirt trails with the 2010 GS, the 19-inch front wheel (like on most other adventure bikes) shod in a “90% street” tire, and the street-soft suspension, gave no grip whatsoever. It seemed like it pushed through the earth rather than roll over it. Consequently, even if the engine was working hard, the front end refused to bite down in the dirt, and did not provide a base to allow me to steer the bike with the throttle – it just wanted to understeer straight off the road. My conclusion after that first test was that we were dealing with a great engine in a touring bike masquerading as an adventure model. | [

In some way or another, we experience a range of struggles throughout our lifetimes. In fact, sometimes these struggles require professional guidance, support, and care. This care often includes a range of therapies available for solving specific problems and meeting individual or group needs, such as integrative therapy. However, what is the integrative therapy definition and how will this therapy work for me?
Exactly What is the Integrative Therapy Definition?
Specifically, humans experience many complex and personal issues. Therapy helps us deal with our complex nature and ongoing problems, life stress, or urgent mental health needs.
Sometimes our problems do not actually relate to obvious root causes. A good example is suffering work or school stress when that stress actually links to your spirituality or irrational thoughts.
Because we offer so many sides to ourselves and suffer complex issues, therapy proves very helpful in our wellness and healing. However, therapies come in many types, methods, and settings. A range of therapies often works best to fix our issues from multiple directions. Moreover, using various methods and approaches is integrative therapy.
The integrative therapy definition is use of multiple different therapies to understand and treat one person. Together, these multiple approaches provide greater insight and problem solving than any one therapy, alone. Furthermore, this holistic method gives you more complete healing of your mind, body and spirit.
Another aspect of the integrative therapy definition is treatment of your whole being and all of its parts through therapy. For this, your treatment plan includes approaches meant to heal your conscious, unconscious, and preconscious mind. An integrative therapy services is simply a mix of multiple therapies for the same person.
Does This Therapy Work?
Integrative therapy uses multiple styles and approaches to treatment. For example, if you suffer substance abuse, or depression, you don’t only visit a talk therapist. Instead, your integrative therapy combines individual, group, and family therapies to understand and overcome your problem from multiple directions. In addition, you also receive CBT, holistic therapies like art and music, and experiential therapies like rock climbing. You face an unlimited number of approaches and styles for your treatment plan.
Overall, the integrative therapy definition works well for a wide range of problems. You start your sessions with your therapist getting to know you and developing your own treatment plan. Therefore, this plan uses the mix of therapies thought to best target and treat your specific needs.

How to Grow Corydalis
Spring flowering corydalis with bright flowers are an excellent plant for shaded areas. They are a large group of woodland plants, ferny foliage and related to the bleeding heart plant, so similar growing conditions.
Some species, such as Corydalis yanhusuo commonly called the ‘Chinese poppy plant’, are used for medicinal purposes.
With many garden worthy varieties offered for sale online it is the blue flowering Corydalis flexuosa that is most sought after although the yellow flowering C. lutea also has its attractions.
This is a plant that has the ability to flower in fairly deep shade the ferny foliage is usually an attractive mid green, however some species with a more blue green, you could grow Corydalis for the foliage alone.
The blue flowering species such as Corydalis flexuosa, pictured right make a wonderful addition to any garden and will reach around 12 inches (30cm) in height.
Other species with flowers, ranging from white to pink are also available. The flowers are spurred flowers and mostly bloom in in spring, with occasional repeat flowering during summer, especially after rain in a cool period.
The keys to growing corydalis are soil, moisture and sun. In terms of climate USDA zones 5 to 8 are best, in other zones they will need protection from heat or cold.
They are best suited to a situation with dappled shade and a humus rich soil these wonderful little plants will spread by underground rhizomes however never seen to become invasive.
Corydalis prefer climates that do not receive high humidity. In warmer climates shade will be essential during summer months.
This is a plant that has tap roots, so they do not take that well to transplanting, although if you dig them when dormant you can often successfully seperate a clump.
- Grow in light shade to dappled shade.
- Humus rich moist soil with added compost during winter. Neutral soil pH too slightly alkaline
- Plant in a well drained position
- Propagation is by rhizome division or from seed
- Although they will self seed, if collected the seed needs to be sown when fresh for good germination.
In most climates, corydalis are dormant in summer as the weather gets hotter and in winter, they die back and disappear underground. They reappear in spring as the weather warms
- Corydalis lutea is the yellow flowering corydalis native to the European Alpine foothills.
- Corydalis solida is a pink flowering species however varieties can produce either purple, red, or white flowers.
- Corydalis anthriscifolia good blue green foliage and pink flowers, although this species does go dormant earlier than some others.
The Blue Flowering Corydalis
Include both Corydalis elata and Corydalis flexuosa.
It is C. flexuosa that makes an attractive woodland plant with dense racemes of bright blue flowers. Named cultivars such as Corydalis flexuosa ‘Porcelain Blue’ are well worth looking for. C.elata has deeper blue flowers
- Corydalis yanhusuo rhizoma is used in Chinese medicine.
- Corydalis ambigua is a blue flowering perennial herb native to China and Japan. In China the common name is Yan Hu Suo.
- Corydalis sempervirens is sometimes called the ‘Rock Harlequin’ and has yellow and pink flowers.

In the ever-evolving landscape of the beauty industry, Morphe has emerged as a powerhouse, captivating makeup enthusiasts with their wide array of eyeshadow palettes. However, as consumers become more conscientious about the products they use, questions regarding the safety of Morphe palettes have surfaced. In this article, we delve into the ingredients, manufacturing processes, and regulatory standards to unravel the truth behind the safety of Morphe palettes.
One of the primary concerns consumers have when it comes to makeup products is the transparency of ingredient lists. Morphe has gained both praise and scrutiny for the extensive ingredient lists featured on their eyeshadow palettes. The brand is known for its rich pigments and vibrant color schemes, but do these formulations compromise safety?
Morphe often incorporates common cosmetic ingredients such as talc, mica, and various pigments in their eyeshadow formulations. Talc, a mineral used for its silky texture, has faced occasional controversies due to potential asbestos contamination in its natural form. However, cosmetic-grade talc undergoes rigorous purification processes to ensure safety.
Furthermore, Morphe palettes are generally free from harmful substances like parabens, sulfates, and phthalates, catering to the growing demand for cleaner beauty products. The inclusion of ingredients like jojoba oil and vitamin E in some palettes suggests a commitment to nourishing and moisturizing formulations.
The safety of a cosmetic product isn’t solely dependent on its ingredients but also on the manufacturing practices employed by the brand. Morphe emphasizes quality control and adheres to strict manufacturing standards to ensure the safety of their palettes.
The brand has a reputation for cruelty-free products, meaning their cosmetics are not tested on animals. This ethical stance resonates with consumers who prioritize cruelty-free options in their beauty routines. Additionally, Morphe palettes are frequently produced in facilities that comply with Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP), ensuring hygiene, cleanliness, and the absence of contaminants during the manufacturing process.
To gauge the safety of Morphe palettes, it’s essential to consider regulatory standards and compliance. Cosmetic products in the United States, where Morphe is headquartered, are subject to regulations set by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The FDA monitors and enforces safety regulations to protect consumers from harmful ingredients and ensure the quality of cosmetic products.
Morphe, like other cosmetic brands, is required to follow FDA guidelines for labeling, safety testing, and ingredient listing. The brand has demonstrated a commitment to compliance, with clear labeling and adherence to regulatory standards. However, it’s crucial for consumers to be informed and proactive in researching the regulatory landscape to make confident decisions about the products they choose.
Customer Reviews and Experiences:
While ingredient lists, manufacturing practices, and regulatory compliance provide a foundational understanding of product safety, real-world experiences from consumers offer valuable insights. Customer reviews, both positive and negative, contribute to the overall perception of a brand’s products.
Morphe has garnered a vast and dedicated customer base, with many praising the quality and performance of their eyeshadow palettes. Positive reviews often highlight the pigmentation, blendability, and long-lasting wear of Morphe eyeshadows. On the flip side, some negative experiences may revolve around individual sensitivities to certain ingredients or expectations not aligning with the product’s performance.
Are Morphe palettes safe for your beauty arsenal? The answer seems to lean towards a resounding yes. The brand’s commitment to transparency, quality manufacturing practices, and compliance with regulatory standards provides a solid foundation for consumer trust. However, as with any cosmetic product, individual experiences may vary, and it’s essential for users to be aware of their specific skin sensitivities and preferences.
Ultimately, the safety of Morphe palettes lies not only in the brand’s formulation and production processes but also in the informed choices made by consumers. As the beauty industry continues to evolve, brands like Morphe play a pivotal role in setting standards for safety, transparency, and innovation in the cosmetics market. | [

Our tailgate extender is strong enough to function as an ATV carrier, motorcycle carrier, snowmobile carrier, or lumber carrier. If you are a truck enthusiast and looking for a bed extender or cargo carrier that is as tough as your truck....look no further than Cari-Mor

SAVANNAH, GA (WTOC) - People in Eastside Savannah are frustrated and scared after yet another night of violence in their neighborhoods.
Police continue to investigate four shootings - two of them are murder investigations. Like many cases in Savannah, three of the four involved suspects or victims are in their 20s.
The violence started last weekend on East 33 Street near Waters Avenue. Sean Brooks, 27, was killed early Sunday morning. The person or people responsible have not been caught.
Later Sunday, police say Jose Carrillo shot and killed 22-year-old Shawn Rhinehart on Betty Drive. Carillo turned himself in on murder charges this week.
Fast forward to Friday morning, a 24-year- old suffered serious injuries in a shooting in Savannah Gardens.
And the final shooting, a drive-by on Seiler Avenue. Police say the shooter damaged several cars and homes in the area. Luckily, no people were shot.
For people living on this side of Savannah, they say it's violence that has become all too common.
"It's very frustrating. It's scary for everybody involved. Bullets don't have names. A lot of times you see that they're not really great shooters so a fly-by can happen to anybody," said Colleen Sheffield Greene, an Eastside resident.
Right now, there is no reason to think these shootings are related.
An arrest has only been made in the deadly shooting on Betty Drive. All four remain under investigation. | [

Welcome to the Alchemizing Imposter Syndrome mini-course.
If you’re here, it means that you are READY to turn imposter syndrome into fuel for your growth.
I like to say that imposter syndrome is only present when we are ready to expand, otherwise we would just feel complacency. So celebrate yourself for taking action onto these feelings and using them as stepping stones as you expand into the next version of yourself. In this course, you’ll learn how to:
- Recognize imposter syndrome and how it’s currently holding you back
- Separate yourself from the story you’re telling yourself
- Acknowledge yourself for all the times you were a beginner before- and all that you are capable of
- Look at the cost of what you’ll rob yourself and the word of if you don’t overcome imposter syndrome
- Double down on your own authentic way of doing things, and take bite-sized action to overcome imposter syndrome
- Expand into the next version of yourself with more authenticity and confidence than ever before
Find a quiet space, grab your journal and pen, and get ready to turn your imposter syndrome into fuel for the next version of yourself! | [

How Hot Is Too Hot For Plants
Caring For Plants During A Heat Wave
Summer is here and once again it’s delivering a one-two punch of brutal heat waves. Temps are skyrocketing for long periods of time and we humans must remember to keep hydrated and find clever ways to cool down.
But what about our plants?
Plants can’t dive into a nice cool lake or drive over to the mall to enjoy the free AC. They’re stuck dealing with heat and blaring sunlight, like it or not. And while they have some temperature-regulating tools built into their biology, there’s only so much heat they can take.
So, how hot IS too hot for plants?
The general answer is around 90 degrees F, with some exceptions to the rule. This means that when temps rise above 90 and remain there for a lengthy spell:
- Leaves wilt. Water evaporates into the atmosphere more quickly in high heat, draining a plant’s reserves. This is especially true in dry heat.
- Flowers, especially young blossoms, drop. Some plants need to forfeit their reproductive goals in order to use their available energy to manage their own cooling systems. Heat waves can mean fewer flowers.
- They stop breathing to prevent water loss. Harder to see, but some plants will close their leaf pores (stomata) to keep water from evaporating. This comes at a high price, as the pores must remain open to take up carbon dioxide, which is critical to photosynthesis. Plants with limited CO2 are slower to grow and may attract pests due to a weakened immune system.
What can we gardeners do about it?
Plant the right kind of heat-loving plants for your environment, be it dry or humid. Tropical plants like hot, sticky weather while xeriscaping (drough-tolerant) plants thrive in high-temperature climates that see little rain fall. Both sets of plants are standout choices for enduring heat waves, as they're already adapted to those conditions.
Water and Mulch. Whenever it's over 90, be sure to give your plants plenty of water. This will prevent wilt and give them the freedom to manage their internal systems without worrying about losing too much moisture. By mulching your plants early on (and refreshing the mulch 1-2 times throughout the season) you'll help to keep the surrounding soil cool and limit water loss.
Build healthy soil. Good soils mean more water-holding capacity and less evaporation. Perennial plants are best-positioned to survive extreme temps when their roots run deep and wide and healthy soils make this type of self-care possible.
Plant Defensively. Create some shade, especially from afternoon sun. This may mean planting a large shrub, bush, or structure on the western side of your favorite perennials, or it may mean intentionally revamping a large area, making it a Shade Garden. With the ability to lower temps in your yard by fifteen degrees, you and your plants will appreciate a shady retreat.

What is the purpose of this? People do things because they feel uncomfortable with the prospect of not doing them. More specifically, it seems that when people are in settings where they know other people will see what they do, they behave in a specific way that they believe they should, to satisfy how they want to be perceived. Social theory often refers to this as "performativity." People feel the need to air this declaration before going to do something else. What are people "performing" when they say "I'm not surprised about any of this"?
When people write their version of that specific sentence, they have in their mind the people who are going to read it. They think something along the lines of "lots of people on the internet are going to read this and [something]".
What I think that "something" is, is something along the lines of "a lot of people are going to agree with me and give me upvotes or props," and/or "the people who are acting surprised and excited are going be humbled by my cynicism/complete lack of emotion." It's perhaps sort of a modification of macho superiority. People who are acting surprised and excited must be more childish than I, less worldly than I, and so I must be a good role model and donate my comment to the unwashed, illiterate masses.
|She's not surprised about what Snowden revealed either|
So from what I can tell, either these people fundamentally misunderstand the point of why other people are acting surprised and energetic (because they think things should change ASAP), or they understand it and wish to exploit it for their own benefit (pretty much just +1's on a website) and/or for empty boosts of self-esteem. Maybe both sorts of people are making this comment.
I'm not surprised by the NSA revelations. When I read each article as it came out, I didn't gape at my computer screen, I didn't leap out of the proverbial bathtub and go running through the streets naked. What I felt like doing: I felt like learning cryptography programming, I felt like going to the DC protest (but didn't make it), I felt like talking to people I know and writing about the issue, I felt like helping my friends secure their computers. What I didn't and still don't feel like doing, is making sure that the world knows that I was/am not surprised. Some people are at a young age or have other things on their plate and simply have not had time to read all the books you have.
This kind of flamboyant posturing often betrays a smug sort of attitude, shared by people all across the political landscape, that posits that focusing on the NSA is futile, for any number of reasons depending on the person. Things like:
- What we really have to do is overthrow capitalism
- These kinds of programs have been targeting non-white people forever, so the focus now is invalid
- What we really have to do is reduce/get rid of the government
- The Constitution is broken and failed anyway
To me this is like proclaiming that rape victims shouldn't go to the police because the police are historically and presently bigoted racially, and protectors of the ruling class. However accurate a description that might be, rapists pose a real threat and law enforcement has power to protect rape victims. The NSA specifically poses a real threat to real people, and most people find the US Constitution a good ideal for a country to aspire to. Now we need a mass of people to see the connection there, between the NSA and their supposed rights, and what are you doing? If you've ever left a bare "I'm not surprised by any of this NSA stuff" declaration anywhere (before now, obviously), or written a piece where you declare as much, leave a comment linking to it and then tell me what you've subsequently done for real people.
I wrote this without really knowing where it was going to go -- sometimes thinking flows better when I'm writing it out (i.e. Graham's The Age of the Essay). I don't actually know why people make this sort of comment. I just think this particular phenomenon I'm talking about is a good crystallization in which we can see the reflection of what most people aren't doing: learning more, building more alternatives, finding ways to help radically change the way things are in the US government, that allow the NSA to be the way it is. | [

A five-year-old boy child has been operated on at Hoima Regional Referral Hospital after being attacked by a chimpanzee at Mparangasi Village in Kyabigambire Sub-county in Hoima District.
John Alinaitwe was severely injured in the stomach when the chimpanzee attacked him on Tuesday afternoon, according to his grandfather, Mr Julius Wamani.
Mr Wamani told this website that his grandson had gone to fetch water together with his siblings from a shallow well when the animal mauled him at around 12pm.
He said after being attacked, the siblings decided to run back home and later informed a man who was tending to his garden adjacent to the water source and in turn rushed to rescue the child.
“After being informed of the attack, the man ran very fast to the water source and rescued Jonah from the chimpanzee. Unfortunately, the chimpanzee had already bitten the young boy on the stomach and the intestines were out” Mr Wamani said.
Alinaitwe was later rushed to Hoima Regional Referral Hospital where he was admitted and operated on last (Thursday) evening.
“We are at Hoima Hospital for treatment. But we are not financially stable. For this reason, we ask the Uganda Wildlife Authority (UWA) to support us financially,” Mr Wamani continued.
This is the second time chimpanzees injuring children in the village in three weeks.
Last month, a chimpanzee attacked and took a baby up a tree after people gathered to salvage him before it finally let go of him.
However, the baby sustained injuries following the fall and is currently admitted at Hoima Regional Referral Hospital. | [

Dr. Ali A. AlMoshaweh, physiatrist R1, PSMMC, Riyadh.
The art of improving quality of life for people with disabilities.
“A true friend knows your weaknesses but shows you your strength, feels your fears but fortifies your faith, sees your anxieties but frees your spirit, recognizes your disabilities but emphasizes your possibilities…” – William Arthur Wards
PM&R, also known as physiatry, is a medical specialty that emphasizes prevention, diagnosis and treatment of patients who experience limitations in function resulting from any disease process, injury or symptom.
Physiatrists use a wide range of treatments, from medications, injections, physical modalities, exercise and education tailored to patient’s needs. Who’s in need for PM&R specialists, though? Generally, patients with neuromuscloskeletal disorders who have acute and chronic disabilities requiring rehabilitation services.
The goal of physiatry is to restore function in patients, in all spheres of life, including the medical, social, emotional and vocational dimensions.
Physiatry has been branded as the “quality of life medical specialty” and has grown in international recognition because of its commitment to meeting the quality of life and nonoperative neuromuscloskeletal needs of aging society, assessing patient’s functional capabilities, evokes patient’s life goals, designs interdisciplinary treatment plans and coordinates rehabilitation interventions to maximize outcomes.
How did PM&R get started?
A major shift in thinking amongst the health care providers began to take place in the middle of the 20th century. A holistic, comprehensive, team-oriented care for people with disabilities began to be recognized as an important societal obligation.
The year 1936 was a banner year for physiatry. Dr. Frank Krusen introduced the first residency training program at the Mayo Clinic. During World War II, there was an urgent need for such a specialty, in which many lives have been saved and many disabilities have been rehabilitated.
Pioneer physicians in this field helped to plant the seeds of an exciting new specialty that cared for the whole person not just the disease.
When did PM&R become recognized as a specialty?
Although the American Academy of Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation traces its origin to 1938, the American Board of PM&R was established in 1947.
What medical conditions are treated by physiatrists?
Comprehensive care for persons with diverse medical conditions and disabilities have gained a fundamental background for the field. Common conditions that are treated by physiatrists include amputations, arthritis, brain injuries, burn, cancer, cardiopulmonary diseases, spinal cord injuries, strokes, fibromyalgia, industrial injuries, pain disorders, multiple sclerosis, neuromuscular diseases, sport injuries, neuropathies, orthopedic injuries, pediatric disorders like cerebral palsy and traumas.
What subspecialties can I go for in PM&R?
For those who want to specialize in specific areas, subspecialty fellowships accredited by ABPM&R are currently available in Spinal cord injury medicine, Pain, Pediatrics, Sport medicine, Hospice and Palliative medicine, Neuromuscular medicine and Brain injury medicine.
I’m a physiatrist. Why did I choose physiatry?
I initially explored PM&R during my fourth year in medical school because I always had an interest in musculoskeletal system, neuroanatomy and pathologies occurring to them, like sport injuries. And I knew that physiatrists took care of patients with stroke, traumatic brain injury, spinal cord injury, and other disorders of the nervous and musculoskeletal systems. During my first rotation in PM&R was when I learned that physiatrists primary focus in helping their patients is by improving function. This focus on function is ultimately what attracted me to PM&R, because enabling patients with different abilities to function can substantially affect quality of life. Another aspect of PM&R that attracted me to the specialty was working with a multidisciplinary team to provide care. Where the team consists of, physiatrists, physical therapists, occupational therapists, speech therapists, prosthesis and orthosis specialists, clinical neuropsychologists, social workers, nurses, recreational therapists and others.
The family meetings that we conduct for each patient to keep him/her oriented and updated about every single detail regarding his/her condition was one of the many great things that attracted me to PM&R.
The recreational and social activities for the patients to keep them feel like home or even better.
PM&R feels just like home… | [

BP Halts This $10 Billion Project
BP’s (NYSE:BP) plans to initiate the second phase of its Mad Dog project in the Gulf of Mexico are on hold, according to company sources. Citing bad market conditions and rising inflation in the oil industry, company spokespeople declined to comment on when the project would be revived. The move followed several other major companies’ pullback from planned projects.
The Gulf of Mexico site where BP planned to start the second phase of Mad Dog is still a sore spot for the oil giant. In 2010, the biggest oil spill ever off the coast of the U.S. prompted a multi-billion dollar settlement and bad press worldwide. BP was planning to get production going with this project and was to invest close to $10 billion to access the oil-rich reserves and potentially start bringing the oil to consumers by the end of the current decade.
The company’s decision will stop effectively that momentum, leaving BP with the recent court defeat in the Deepwater Horizon settlement as its primary concern in the Gulf of Mexico area. The oil spill required a giant settlement following the damage caused to human lives, property and business in the region. The mining industry will take another major hit following the halting of the Mad Dog project…
The cost of drilling and construction elements in the Mad Dog project were the chief causes of concern among BP analysts when crunching the numbers. Similar concerns forced Woodside Petroleum (ASX:WPL) to pull back from its gigantic natural gas project planned for Western Australia. Industry momentum has slowed, leaving many to question the supply capabilities of the largest corporations in the coming years.
BP planned on teaming with Union Oil and Chevron (NYSE:CVX) in the second segment of Mad Dog development. Analysts have pointed out that the drop in crude oil prices might have prompted BP to make a second evaluation before beginning the enormous project. In a week dominated by news of gold mining’s slump, offshore industries are continuing to hear reports of a loss in confidence among the world’s biggest drilling companies.

CHICAGO — Facing questions about how Chicago’s Law Department handles police shootings and defends the city against claims of excessive force, Chicago officials announced on Sunday that they had hired Dan K. Webb, a former United States attorney, to lead a review of the department’s practices.
The announcement came after a federal judge last week accused two city attorneys of misconduct. The judge said the Law Department had concealed evidence in a civil case regarding the fatal police shooting of a black man, Darius Pinex, during a 2011 traffic stop.
Scrutiny of the department’s actions opened a new element in the broad questions being raised about police conduct and discipline in the city after the release in November of a video showing a different police shooting, which left Laquan McDonald dead.
Mayor Rahm Emanuel had initially said the Law Department’s behavior did not need to be included in a larger Justice Department investigation into the Chicago police force, but later last week he called for an outside review of the department’s handling of such cases.
Stephen R. Patton, who leads the Law Department, said in a news release on Sunday that Mr. Webb and his team would examine discovery practices and procedures as well as attorney training and supervision. Past or present potential misconduct will be reported to the city’s inspector general, Mr. Patton said, and Mr. Webb will provide a written report on the matter.
The city will pay the firm of Mr. Webb, who was the federal prosecutor for the Northern District of Illinois in the 1980s, an hourly rate of $295, which the city said was a discount from Mr. Webb’s normal hourly rate of $1,335.
“We have zero tolerance for any action that undermines the trust of the residents we serve,” Mr. Patton said. “Working with respected experts in the field, we are taking immediate action to ensure that city attorneys never again repeat the violations that were made in the Pinex case and maintain the highest professional standards going forward.” | [

Tue, 4 May 2021, 07:1907:19 AM | BY: EARTHQUAKEMONITOR
India's National Center for Seismology (NCS) reported a magnitude 5.1 quake in China near Shache, Kashgar, Xinjiang, only 12 minutes ago. The earthquake hit early afternoon on Tuesday 4 May 2021 at 3:05 pm local time at a shallow depth of 10 km. The exact magnitude, epicenter, and depth of the quake might be revised within the next few hours or minutes as seismologists review data and refine their calculations, or as other agencies issue their report.
5.1 quake 4 May 3:05 pm (GMT +8)
Based on the preliminary seismic data, the quake was probably felt by many people in the area of the epicenter. It should not have caused significant damage, other than objects falling from shelves, broken windows, etc.

TransForm ECU-300 is Barco's new generation of video wall controllers, engineered to perfectly master even the largest video walls. Optimally using the extreme bandwidth capacity of the PCI Express backbone, Transform ECU-300 is capable of capturing and displaying high amounts of video sources and graphical application data on even the largest control room video walls. Running standard Windows OS, TransForm ECU-300 is a powerful platform for running applications directly on the video wall controller.
With Barco’s DisplayControl software in combination with the networking and IP stream handling capabilities, the ECU-300 can either be operated standalone or be seamlessly integrated into a full networked environment.
Very large displays capabilities
Thanks to its modular and scalable PCIe based architecture, and high density output cards, TransForm ECU-300 is the solution for seamlessly and synchronously driving all sizes of video walls, including screens of up to 4K resolution.
High density for high number and types of sources
TransForm ECU-300 uses newest generation high density input cards supporting a high number of directly connected HDMI/DVI and Analog Video sources, in a particularly compact configuration. Additionally, streaming cards can be configured to allow for IP-decoding. The PCIe switch matrix backbone implemented in the TransForm ECU-300 base unit, combined with optional extenders, delivers double the bandwidth compared to a legacy PCIe based system. This allows more source windows, with absolute freedom of placement and zooming.
Standalone wall controller or fully networked
Whereas TransForm ECU-300 can start in many single wall installations as a Standalone Wall controller, it can be easily and fully integrated into a networked system. A networked Transform ECU-300 behaves as output node and application node with additional local source capture capabilities. It is then an integral part of a collaborative system environment, managed by the DisplayControl software.
Ease of use and reliability
TransForm ECU-300 comes pre-installed with the advanced Barco DisplayControl software, which meets all demanding 24/7 control room visualization needs, supported by redundancy and hot-plug capability features for the critical components.

When people are too passive to stand up for righteousness
Our beautiful city is being overrun by destructive, locally grown outlaws, as well as transplants of felons from other places that have found a home here, making for a lethal combination. Equally pernicious however, is the ring of upstanding citizens, self-appointed bootlickers, who have knowingly or naively partnered with a clumsy police department and city government, privately whispering in its ears and publicly raving enthusiastically about their wonderful performance.
Generally speaking, the criminal element is much like a lower animal that behaves instinctively in his/her path to self-preservation or destruction; with some exceptions of course, but in most cases, resulting from an assortment of adverse birth and social components, so many that the individual cannot control. Be that as it may, the end result here in Hemet is a disproportionate level of criminals that local police are incapable of reducing.
The real problem in Hemet is the abundance of well educated, well informed, nicely dressed individuals, both men and women, with a stake in the city, that instead of being a force for change and correction are nothing more than “second bananas” to an ineffective and inept police department and city council. A very real problem because the majority of these opinion makers are professionals, business owners, members of Hemet’s dominant forces looking out for their best interests while paying lip service to the idea of reducing crime.
These individuals, when faced with incontrovertible statistics that Hemet has a much higher crime rate than other similar size cities in California, and indeed other cities in the country with the same or lesser police resources, maintain that the Hemet City Council and Police Department are doing a great job. These persons are not – as they claim – part of the solution; they are very much part of the problem.
Meanwhile, the average citizen, as usual, is being manipulated by city officials and police in collusion with these hypocritical opinion makers to believe that more taxes are needed instead of devising a plan to reduce crime with available resources.
If and when the taxpaying residents of Hemet decide that enough is enough, and demand an accounting of achievement from the police and city council; if and when the voters understand their crucial role as overseers in the administration of the city and disallow undeserved words of praise heaped upon the City Council and police department for underperforming – then, and only then, will the people be standing up for righteousness.
Gray Wilkins, Hemet
Over regulated and under represented
According to Article 1 Section 2 Clause 3, every state is supposed to have two senators and one representative in the House for every 30,000 people. Today, we have 435 congressmen and women representing 320 million people, which equates to approximately one representative for every 700,000 people. If we were following the Constitution, we would have more than 6,000 congressional representatives. All legislative power is vested in the hands of 435 millionaires who are working for the 540 billionaires. If the power of the 435 was shared with more than 6,000 do you think we would be better off?
It is obviously a lot easier for the lobbyists representing the Wall Street Bankers and corporations to control the 435 corrupt politicians who are sequestered in Washington, D.C. than it would be to control more than 6,000 congressional representatives in more than 3,000 counties.
Let’s hope special counsel investigates everyone
I hope Special Counsel Robert Mueller will investigate Seth Rich’s murder. Seth worked for the Democratic National Committee, and is suspected to have released some of the DNC emails to Wikileaks. He was shot twice in the back.
I hope Mueller investigates some of the illegal unmasking of Donald Trump’s campaign officials, to see if it implicates the Obama administration in any way.
I hope Mueller also investigates why Hillary Clinton, while Secretary of State, signed away 20 percent of U.S. uranium to a Russian company, and then received a $145 million donation from Russia to the Clinton Foundation.
Some of these investigations would make up for the wasted time and tax money spent on investigating President Trump’s ties with Russia.
Being a business owner, I recently received about eight separate lengthy forms, sent to me from Riverside County Dept. of Child Support Services, regarding a supposed employee of mine. I previously have sent in paperwork denying this person is an employee. How typical of our government – wasting our tax money!
President Trump is trying to run the government more like a business. No wonder so many people are freaking out! The swamp runs deep, and cleaning up government waste is quite a task!
For me, when I’d like a good laugh, it’s not necessary to watch Saturday Night Live. I just turn on the mainstream media, and get comic relief watching Democratic officials in a frenzy over President Trump. Especially satisfying are senators Chuck Schumer | [

The Athens metro subway is expanding in coming years and presenting new buying opportunities for real estate investors looking for the next hot area in the Greek capital.
After originally starting in 2000, the underground train network has transformed the city and promises to keep doing so as it spreads, adding value to property and the economy.
Data shows that housing prices in areas benefiting from the metro show sharp gains as accessibility to the neighborhood improves, bringing along with it better living conditions.
Currently the Athens metro consists of two lines: Line 2, or the red line, runs from Elliniko through to Anthoupoli while Line 3 (blue line) runs from Doukissis Plakentias to Dimotiko Theatro in Piraeus.
Authorities have announced the introduction of one more route, Line 4 (yellow line), that will gradually add another 15 stations to the network by 2030. At a second stage, Line 4 will be extended towards Marousi in the north and Petroupoli in the northwest.
Third and fourth construction phases will follow, bringing the total number of stations on Line 4 to 35.
Here we will concentrate on the first construction phases of Line 4 where drilling work has actually started and the schedule is more concrete.
The Transport Ministry is currently conducting environmental studies and launching construction tenders for the remaining phases, which have been roughly outlined. (see below).
Apart from the 2030 delivery for the first part of Line 4, no other dates have been provided by Greek authorities on when the remaining stations will be ready.
It is worth noting here though that delays are likely. But keep in mind that the metro is very popular with Athenians, there is wide public support for extensions to its network and one more important detail: EU funds are mostly paying for these investments.
Changing real estate in Athens
The city’s expanding transport infrastructure will create many changes for home buyers to take a look at. Market experts say that in some areas where new stations will be built prices have already gone up by some 20%, with sellers already booking profits from the new means of transport to the suburb.
It is difficult, however, to determine whether these price hikes are due to the anticipated new metro stations or are a result of the broader rise in real estate prices. Greek real estate prices are rising, and expected to continue doing so, amidst low supply levels and strong demand for short term rentals stemming from booming tourism.
At GreekGuru.net we have identified 5 areas that will benefit from a new metro station in coming years AND have prices that rank at the lower end of the market, potentially offering a cheap investment option with upside potential.
So let’s jump into it.
5 parts of Athens with investment potential
An area close to the city where prices have already benefited from the recovery in the market. Currently apartments for sale in the area go for an average selling price of 2,341 euros per sq/m, with the cost of older homes (more than 5 years old) starting from 1,700 euros per sq/m.
Exact location of planned station: At the junction of Ethnikis Antistasseos Avenue with Vass. Alexandrou Avenue, between Imittou and John Kennedy Streets. (Source: Athens Metro SA)
Another area that is close to the city center and definitely worth keeping an eye on. Apartments here cost about 2,242 euros per sq/m in Goudi, a district which provides green spaces and includes the Goudi Olympic Sports complex.
Exact location of planned station: At Eleftherias Square and Lochia Spiliopoulou Street
Ilisia sits behind the Hilton hotel and is close to the Megaro Mousikis station. Prices here currently cost 2,742 euros per sq/m. Market data shows that house prices older than 5 years old may start from 1,600 euros per sq/m.
Exact Location of planned station: Will be positioned at Indou Street and at Aornou and Kyprou Squares in the Municipality of Zografou.
A large densely populated area in northern Athens where prices are at around 2,550 euros per square meter for new houses, with older houses going for 1,880 euros per sq/m. Galatsi is the biggest winner from the new line to be constructed as it will accommodate three of the new stations. (Alsos Veikou, Galatsi, Elikonos)
Exact location of 3 planned stations:
Viekou station: At the junction of Omorfoklissias (Veikou) Avenue with Tralleon Street.
Galatsi station: At the junction of Omorfoklissias (Veikou) Avenue and, more precisely of Aghias Glykerias (the continuation of Omorfoklissias Avenue) Street, with Galatsiou Avenue.
Elikonos station: At the intersection of | [

The 3.5-ton, 14-loop, geo-thermal, direct-exchange, EarthLinked® heating and cooling system is efficient and easy to service, says the manufacturer. Unlike other geothermal systems that rely on plastic tubing to transfer water and anti-freeze through a large intermediate loop, EarthLinked circulates refrigerant through highly conductive copper earth loops, enabling more direct transfer of thermal energy from the earth, says the company.

Local veterans impatient about new clinic
Published 6:00 pm, Thursday, February 17, 2005
In November, Congress and the VA secretary approved full funding for the clinics, including one in Conroe. Congress also added an additional $1.2 billion for national VA funding.
Local veterans must travel nearly an hour to receive treatment at the Michael E. DeBakey VA Medical Center, located at 2002 Holcombe Blvd. in Houston, which takes a full day, because MEDVAMC serves so many veterans.
"There's a lot of veterans that live here and go down to Houston," said veteran Joe Alvarado, of Conroe.
Alvarado goes to the MEDVAMC in Houston and said he uses an entire day just going down there because of traffic and the large amount of other veterans who use the center.
A Galveston VA facility will open March 4 and a Texas City VA facility will open April 4. The Charles Wilson VA Outpatient Clinic in Lufkin is still looking for a larger facility.
"After we make it through that, we'll make it to Conroe," said Bobbi Gruner, a public affairs officer for the MEDVAMC. "We're working as fast as we can."
In addition to Galveston, Texas City, Lufkin and Conroe, VA clinics are planned for Tomball, Katy, Richmond and Lake Jackson.
"I think they should be moving faster than that," veteran Charlie Pluck, of Imperial Oaks, said.
Pluck said he spends $700 a month out of his own pocket on medical services at local hospitals because it takes too much time to go to the MEDVAMC for treatment. If a center opened in Conroe, he would save that money as well as his time.
With nearly 28,000 veterans in Montgomery County and 211,400 veterans in neighboring counties, according to the Department of Veterans Affairs Web site www.va.gov, a local VA clinic is badly needed.
"There's a lot of interest in getting it here," said Peggy Capps, of Conroe, whose husband, Earl Capps, is a veteran. "It's needed very much."
She said it's hard for many veterans to travel to Houston, because of disabilities and age, and spend all day there.
U.S. Rep. Kevin Brady, R-The Woodlands, has been pushing for VA facilities in the Houston area for years.
But since the opening of the Galveston clinic was delayed, all other local VA facilities will be delayed. The VA has said the Houston region is its top priority.
But Brady said somewhere in the VA, either in Washington, D.C., regionally or locally, the process is being held up.
"We can't seem to get an answer from VA," Brady said. "We know they're getting the money, so maybe they're not making it a priority. There's a problem somewhere, and we're going to find it. We intend to get to the bottom of the run-around."
In March, Brady will meet with local VA officials, and he hopes to get some of his questions answered.
"I'm not very happy," Brady said. "Congress and the VA itself said we need these VA outpatient clinics."
A new facility in Conroe could cost $3 million, or less than $2 million to lease an existing building. Annual upkeep would cost $1.3 million, Brady said.
"That's not very much," Brady said. "We need to move forward on this clinic this year."
A site for the Conroe clinic has not been determined.
The Conroe clinic will be one of the largest facilities and is expected to provide primary care, a pharmacy, physical therapy, mental health and other specialty services.
Brady knows the process to complete the clinic will be a lengthy one, but he hopes it starts this year. If progress isn't made soon, Brady will ask local veterans to step forward and let their voices be heard.
As part of the National Salute to Hospitalized Veterans week, the public is invited to visit veterans at the MEDVAMC from through Saturday to show appreciation for what veterans have done for the country.
"It's basically just a visit to talk and let the veterans know they're appreciated," Gruner said.
Last year, the MEDVAMC had more than 500 community members show appreciation to veterans during the salute.
"They love the visitors and they always have a story to tell that's interesting," Gruner said about veterans at the MEDVAMC.
So far this year, the center has had school classes, sororities, Girl Scout troupes, council members and U.S. Rep. Gene Green, R-Texas visit the center. Former American Idol participant Lana Phillips is expected to visit March 15, and country music legend Lee Green | [

Despite choppy seas, 25-knot winds and ocassional rain showers during our 80-minute, 30-kilometer commute to the outer reef, the sun was shining bright on our arrival and snorkeling in the 75-degree water was as remarkable as anticipated.
A Red and Black Anemonefish, (amphiprion melanopus,) a species of anemonefish of which Nemo (a Clownfish, amphiprion ocellaris) is undoubtedly the most famous member!

Jun, one of our Silverswift crew members, leads a snorkel tour on the reef. In this image above, he's holding a pineapple sea cucumber, one of several sea cucumber species found on the reef.
A male parrot fish (there are over 30 species of parrot fish on the GBR), scrapes away at the algae on the coral reef, scratching away a thin layer of the calcium as well. The calcium bits help digest the cellulose of the algae. The calcium is excreted in long streams of sediment. It is estimated that 30% of coral sand is old parrotfish poo!
Parrotfish are protogynous, beginning life as a female and are dark (almost black) in color. After eight years, their sex changes to male at which time they acquire their beautiful coloring. | [

Sea cucumbers are interesting echinoderms (meaning spiny skin, related to sea stars) that live all over the world. In Hawaii they are found from tide pools, like this one, to much deeper waters.
Named for their long, round shape, sea cucumbers have a leathery skin. This variety eats mostly organic matter on the sea floor and specializes in tide pools. One of the most abundant varieties in Hawaii is the maroon-colored sea cucumber pictured here.
When threatened, sea cucumbers will shoot a spray of water out a small hole. This brings hours of entertainment to children. Interestingly, this same ‘expelling’ mechanism goes to an extreme when a cucumber is in serious danger, effectively shooting out much of the internal structure of the sea cucumber. Predators eat the expelled part of the sea cucumber and leave the rest intact. The sea cucumber then regrows its now missing stomach/intestines and continues to live.
Just to the left and also below the sea cucumber here are two stinging black sea urchins, locally known as ‘wana.’ | [

|Name of church or organization|
|St. James’ Episcopal Church|
|St. James’ Episcopal Church, founded 71 years ago, is located in Jackson, Mississippi, the state capital, with a population of about 165,000 residents. Jackson is the center of government, healthcare, banking and legal services for the state. The city has much to offer educationally and culturally with museums, symphony orchestra, opera company, theater, public, private and higher education, and ballet companies. Jackson is home to more than 15 faith denominations and is the seat of the Episcopal Diocese of Mississippi. St. James’ strives to seek and serve Jesus Christ in all persons, as a loving, joyful, and prayerful community that actively welcomes diverse views and beliefs. Located in the heart of the lively Fondren neighborhood, St. James’ today is a vibrant community of faithful people that has flourished and grown since our founding. With an average Sunday attendance of around 300 worshippers, over 1,350 active parishioners, and a $1.479 million annual budget, St. James’ is the largest church in the Diocese of Mississippi.
It is the people of St. James’ who define our parish, and we have a healthy mix of older parishioners, young families, long-time Episcopalians, the recently confirmed, and newcomers. We receive renewal from our liturgical foundation, exceptional music, active lay ministry, and strong educational ministries, especially our Catechesis of the Good Shepherd program for our youngest children and St. James’ School, a licensed educational center serving children from age one to pre-K each weekday. St. James’ supports parishioners in their journeys through life and ministers to the greater Jackson community by our outreach programs. We seek a rector who will walk beside us as a compassionate and accessible servant leader for our parish, an engaged and effective administrator, and an eloquent and inspiring preacher. We look to welcome a partner in ministry who invites all people to join us at the communion rail. We hope to find a rector who loves the liturgy of the Episcopal Church as much as we do, and who will invite us into a deeper faith and a surer understanding of God’s love for us and for the world. We hope our new rector can lead us in our mission to grow in the knowledge and love of God as revealed in Jesus Christ. We believe we are called to strengthen and grow parishioner involvement and leadership in all aspects of the life and ministries of our church. We seek to find a new rector who can appreciate and build upon the strong traditions and strengths of our church and guide and work with us as we build our church of the future.

After being caught by surprise by the sudden growth in mobile data, mobile operators have started to realize that, to profit from it in the long term, they need to strike the right balance between pricing and traffic, and limit the scope of network expansion to increase capacity. If they raise the prices too much they risk losing subscribers. If traffic is too high, congestion and the need for expensive upgrades ensue--and profitability is threatened. If they spend too much on network expansion, they will hurt profit margins.
One solution that mobile operators have timidly started to mention is the introduction of traffic limitations. Subscribers have been grown accustomed to flat-rate unlimited services--for both data and voice--and it will be difficult to wean them off this type of plans. Unless strict--and likely to be highly unpopular--caps are introduced, they will only affect a small fraction of subscribers. For instance, on AT&T mobile network, 3 percent of subscribers use 40 percent of the bandwidth, according to the operator. Traffic caps may be useful in managing these 3 percent subscribers, but they miss large opportunities for improving traffic.
Increasing the efficiency of the network is crucial to manage traffic in ways that benefit both subscribers and mobile operators. Mobile operators no longer have to transport traffic through a passive, best-effort channel. They can use tools like quality-of-service and traffic prioritization, subscriber policies, compression, deep-packet inspection to give subscribers more control over their mobile online experience while increasing the perceived network capacity through to a more efficient use of resources. The rigidity of traffic cap can be avoided by using a more flexible approach in which traffic flows are actively managed depending on data and infrastructure requirements and operators data policies. And in the process, mobile operators can escape their dreaded fate as commodity providers, and leverage data management to differentiate their offering from competitors and extract more revenues from data services.
The tools to actively manage traffic are available today, yet their implementation is taking a long time. Mobile operators are rightly concerned about the reception among subscribers who may see traffic management as a way to limit their freedom, while in fact it is more likely to result in a more fair use of network resources. Transparency and subscriber education of what managing traffic entails is going to be the next step for mobile operators to gain better control over data services and their profitability. | [

IRC’s folded IRC folded Extended text
This is essentially a Standard IRC except folded to accommodate larger sizes. Especially common in the cosmetics and pharmaceutical industries where package size is extremely limited.
When more info or pages are needed,
pages can be added through a process known as ‘onserting.’ Our onserter is installed on a 16” press capable of nine colors. If desired, some pages can remain on the package. Common in chemical and agri industries. | [

LONDON, Dec. 12 The Norwegian Clean Seas Association for Operating Companies is carrying out an emergency response following an oil spill of 4,000 cu m from the Statfjord A platform in the Norwegian North Sea.
The accident happened as the shuttle tanker Navion Britannia was loading StatoilHydro AS's oil from a buoy.
A company spokesman told OGJ that the spill was caused by a leak in the subsea hose between the loading buoy and ship. The loading buoy has been shut down, but oil production of 470,000-480,000 b/d and 6 million cu m/day of gas are continuing as normal from the platform, including satellite fields tied back to that unit.
"An aircraft from the Norwegian Coastal Administration and a helicopter have been deployed to determine the extent of the discharge," StatoilHydro said.
Wind speed of 45 knots in northern direction and wave height up to 7 m prevented the association from using four sets of skimming equipment to tackle the spill. "We are also looking at using chemicals like dispersants but we need to speak to the authorities," the spokesman added.
The field will undergo redevelopment in 2008 whereby StatoilHydro has postponed depressurization, which will increase its oil production by more than 7 million bbl, while gas production from the reservoir will be somewhat delayed. The delayed gas output will be partly offset by increased gas production from the Statfjord reservoir (OGJ Online, June 28, 2006).
Statfjord is 200 km west of Bergen, close to the border of the UK continental shelf.

I’ll be honest: There have been plenty of mornings that I have woken up with a completely negative attitude. Ever been there? Your eyes open to the ringing alarm and suddenly thoughts rush in about what you have to do today, who needs you, what is coming up, what you haven’t finished yet…talk about anxiety-inducing.
I’m slowly learning to let that part of me go and I’m becoming the person I want to be: a girl that wakes up rested, peaceful, and happy. A girl who can take a deep breath in and out, smile, and feel excited for the day ahead. A person who remembers to thank God for the new day He has given me before turning my phone off airplane mode and letting the world in for the day.
Picture yourself waking up in the morning, turning your alarm off (not hitting snooze), making your bed, drinking a big glass of water, doing ten minutes of yoga, enjoying some silence to pray, and getting dressed for a workout or for your day. How nice does that sound?! That’s what I want! I don’t want to hit snooze, crawl back in bed, or wake up late, feeling disjointed and behind. I don’t want to wake up with an “ughhh….” mindset. I want to wake up excited and happy, not worried and anxious. I’m finding out that this is way easier to do than you might think.
How? By shifting your mind to focus on the positive things you want to do.
Example: “I can’t wait for that workout! I can’t wait to eat that healthy meal. I can’t wait to wake up early and have a relaxing morning. I’m excited for that event this week.”
My mom says it this way: “Let gratitude change your attitude.” When I first heard that quote, I think I rolled my eyes. But now I’m seeing just how true it is. It’s not easy to do this, but it’s better than the alternative. Why would we want to worry? Why would we want to wake up with dread? Why NOT focus on the positives? Why not reframe your perspective to see the bright side?
If I could go back to the Grace who had just graduated from high school a few summers back who worried all summer long about starting college, I would tell her that instead of choosing anxious thoughts, she should choose positive ones (this will work for any situation in your life, too). For example:
- Anxious thought: “I am so worried about what’s going to happen.”
- Positive thought: “I am so excited about this new journey.”
- Anxious: “I have no idea how this is going to go.”
- Positive: “I can’t wait to see what God is going to do.”
- Anxious: “I am so nervous to meet new people. I’m going to be all alone.”
- Positive: “I am so excited to meet new people and make new friends.”
- Anxious: “I love my routine right now and I HATE change.”
- Positive: “I can’t wait to create a new, fresh routine. It’ll be fun to have new surroundings.”
It’s just such a brighter perspective, isn’t it? You’re either going to spend your time worrying or being excited, so you might as well choose the happier option. Why not choose joy instead of dread?
Worry = dread = negative perspective.
Excitement = joy = positive perspective.
We become what we tell ourselves. And don’t just take my word for it. This stuff is literally in the Bible:
Romans 12:2 – “Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.”
Proverbs 23:7 – “As a man thinks, so is he.”
We get to choose how we think. Just because your brain naturally wants to default to the negative thought or outlook doesn’t mean you have to let it go there. You can stop that thought and literally tell it, “Nope we’re not going down that negative road today.”
Think of it this way. Walking downhill = easy. Walking uphill = difficult. It’s a climb. However, if you choose to go uphill with your thoughts, if you choose the harder thing which is to choose the positive outlook, you’re going to end up with a much better view at the top instead of staying at the bottom.
Today, try to change one negative thought into a positive and see how it feels. The next time you’re dreading that workout, be grateful you have lungs | [

Egypt to seek out dollar bond issues proposals from banks
(MENAFN) According to banking sources, banks were sent a request a week ago by Egypt to provide proposals that aim for US dollar-denominated Eurobonds to be arranged.
Between January and February 2018, Egypt is to issue a dollar-denominated Eurobond to be followed through a euro-denominated debt sale later in the year, as stated by Finance Minister Amr El-Garhy.
$7 billion in international bonds were issued by Egypt this year by a $4 billion trade in January as well as a re-opening of the same bond in May. The issues are said to have been prepared by JP Morgan, Citigroup, Natixis and BNP Paribas.

Just passed 1,000,000 visits to this blog last week.
I started this blog in 2008 as a way to enhance my extension work and better reach out to the strawberry and caneberry production community on the Central Coast. The regular Strawberry Commission Green Sheets were being sharply reduced, and extension newsletters would only come out every one or two months. Even major industry problems would go unaddressed by any press for weeks and once something was written about them, not everybody could access the information since they were limited to mailing lists. Beyond that, low possibility of doing the color photos so important for diagnostics and little facilitation for author and reader interaction really didn't help the usefulness of these media.
The industries I work for deserved far better, and by 2008 it was time to jump in and try something new. Seems like it worked.
After one million visits and 240 posts, let me share a few thoughts on running a UCCE blog dedicated to berries:
Writing a blog is a good way to figure out how you think about a subject: When one writes for a demanding audience like all of you, getting an idea into an intelligible form means profoundly understanding your subject and so you do what it takes to get there. Some of these posts you read take hours, even days, of time immersed in books, scientific literature and on the phone with knowledgeable people. It's worth it though, because this process has allowed us (yes, us) to answer some pretty difficult questions.
Writing constantly is a good way to become a better writer: Absolutely you become a better writer by spending so much time writing for an audience of your peers. Thing is too for a blog you have to keep the writing tight and lean. No one is going to spend an hour reading thoughts that could have been condensed down to something understood in far fewer words and far less time.
By the way, translating some of the more relevant pieces has not only made these available to Spanish speakers on the "Fresas y Moras" site, but I've gained a lot of language skills in the process. To give an example, I am probably at a PhD level in Spanish plant pathology for all the joint articles I've translated with colleague Steve Koike!
Online publishing is a meritocracy: True that. Bloggers gain readers by sheer quality of their work – not through family connections, big salaries or fancy titles at important sounding organizations. Online readers don't give a hoot about any of those things - if you suck no is one is going to read your stuff and you are going to know it. The days of packing off a report into the mail and not knowing (or caring) whether anybody reads it or not are over.
Curation and content: The job of a blogger isn't just to write articles, but it's also to collect and curate articles relevant to the subject. You serve as a moderator, looking for quality articles and not letting the site get polluted with politically driven science or questionably researched material.
In my case, I love to draw from the deep bench of quality scientists we have at the UC and UCCE; case in point is the recent article written by Margaret Lloyd and Tom Gordon from UC Davis on Verticillium and compost – deeply researched and vetted science presented by top scientists in a timely way to address what was perceived to be a major deal here.
It's been a great experience for me to be writing this blog and the Spanish language one, and it seems from the amount of traffic these sites have been getting, you my readers are thinking along the same lines. Thanks for all the reading and participation!
Got a rather lengthy text from a colleague this afternoon concerning J rooting of strawberry plants - question was: does it really make a difference whether or not a strawberry transplant is J rooted?
Let's go to the Green Sheets, which have been a real treasure trove of information.
The one included in the link below was a summary of field work done by the late Warren Bendixen, who served as the Farm Advisor in Santa Maria for many, many years:
This work was done by Warren in response to a shift going at that time in Santa Maria from 40" inch beds with 5- 6" deep planting slots with very little J rooting to the 64" beds so familiar today, but with planting slots which would result in a lot of J- rooted plants.
Key takeaway from the paper, it's in bold because it's so important.
Plants with J roots reduced fresh fruit yields by 18.5%.
If this doesn't get your attention as to why we shouldn't be J rooting, I don't know what will.
Interesting short piece on the potential to use "fruit flies" (these would actually be vinegar flies belonging to the family Drosophilidae, true fruit flies belong to the family Tephritidae - IBD needs a better science blurbist) to detect bombs and illicit drugs given that they | [

I’m at the cinema with some friends. We’re about to choose the movie that we are about to see, and one my friends say: “Hey, wait a minute. I checked Rotten Tomatoes, it says that Man of Steel is a rotten movie… and it’s a really bad movie.” What this guy said was really weird, because I saw Man of Steel with this guy some days ago, and he said he loved that flick.
Source: Warner Bros.
Did this guy just said the new Superman movie is bad just because he wants to agree the 56% score that the movie holds on Rotten Tomatoes? Is this guy pretending he is a “movie critic” or something like that? I don’t get it, because when we saw that movie he even said that Man of Steel was the best movie of 2013, so far. The next day he says it’s a bad movie because he saw that film holds a rotten score… and by that, people are not supposed to like this film or at least share positive comments about it online.
For those who don’t know, Rotten Tomatoes is a movie site that gathers the top critics reviews and give a porcentage of how accepted the movie was by the critics. The site is quite useful sometimes if you don’t want to spend your money watching bad movies, because basically this site shows which movie is good or bad, but from the critics point of view.
So, maybe this friend of mine was too excited, and he was blinded by that all the visual effects and the fact that this is a Superman movie and this dude flies, but then he realised this movie was disappointing after thinking about it in his way home… or maybe he just changed his mind to agree most of critics and some of the regular people who review who share their review on this site.
Now look, I’m not here to defend Man of Steel or many other movies that were certified rotten by the website, because I was very disappointed by Zack Snyder. I’m here because movie viewers that change their opinions because of a number are very annoying. The last Superman movie is probably the best example to adress this issue because we can agree that Man Of Steel was the most polarizing film of 2013. Some people love it, some people hate it.
After it’s opening weekend, the reviews flooded the internet and most of them were bad or average. Viewers who enjoyed the film and Superman fans started changing their mind. Man Of Steel, in that moment, was panned by both fans and movie critics, with some exceptions of course.
The world is not supposed to agree in this kind of subjects. Like John Campea, editor-in-chief of AMC Movie News and creator of The Movie Blog says, film is subjective.
Seriously, I know people who hate Star Wars, and I’m talking about the original trilogy, not the precuels. There’s people who say the Exorcist is the worst horror movie in history. Maybe you have that friend who loves Anaconda or the one who constantly says that Roland Emmerich’s version of Godzilla is not that bad. Those are rotten films on this site. People that like and hate those movies actually exist. We don’t have to agree when we talk about films, no one is going to kill you if you say Spider-Man 2 is boring or if you didn’t like the Avengers or Pulp Fiction that much. Film is subjective.
You’re not a movie critic, journalist, or you didn’t go to film school. You’re a movie fan or an average moviegoer. I’m not trying to be mean, but maybe you don’t know a lot about films. When people talk about direction, cinematography and all those things, you’re probably not going to care, you just want to know if the movie is good or not. You know what is a good story, yes. But all the other deep aspects that critics review? Probably not, they learned that through the years.
Some weeks ago, what happened last year when I watched Man Of Steel for the second time happened again. Same scenario, different movie. We are about to see the new Godzilla movie, and a girl says the score Godzilla holds in Rotten Tomatoes is mediocre. You gotta be kidding me. We watched Godzilla some days before that incident, and she was nerding the fuck out when Godzilla was revealed, she loved that movie very much, and she even said it was her favorite King of Monsters movie to date… but now she thinks that this film is mediocre.

Days before Godzilla was released, the film held a 90% score on Rotten Tomatoes, so people who see that score were saying this movie was really good. Now, it has 73%, which means it | [

Jefferson County Bank Building
- This article is about the 1884 building. For the 1913 skyscraper, see City Federal Building.
The Jefferson County Savings Bank Building (also called the Enslen Bank Building) was constructed in 1884 as the home of the Jefferson County Savings Bank on the southeast corner of 2nd Avenue North and 21st Street. The four-story building was commissioned by the bank's owner, Christian Enslen and executed in a heavily-ornamented French style with a mansard roof above a deep bracketed cornice. The ground floor was brick with thick pilasters and a prominent corner entrance. The upper floors had projecting arches and deep-set double-hung windows. The attic story was marked by arched dormers and an ornamented ridge.
In the 1880s the building housed the offices of the Industrial Protective Association of Alabama, B. L. Hibbard, attorney, and Rousseau & Detterich, Architects. At some point before 1909 the building's height was increased to five floors with a new projecting cornice.
Enslen retired in 1911 and left the bank to his son, Eugene, who immediately began planning for a monumental new bank building. He commissioned the 25-story Jefferson County Savings Bank building which became the tallest building in the south when it was completed in 1913.
The older building was sold. It housed the Southern District offices of the Independent Pneumatic Tool Company in 1918 and was used to register draftees during World War I. On August 1, 1919 it became the home of the Birmingham Branch of the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta. The second floor housed the 19-room U. S. Quality Shoe Stores in the 1920s.

National Interest magazine, in a recent article, ADS Assault Rifle: An Underwater Assault Rifle That Isn't Science Fiction, reviewed a Russian special ADS machine. We offer a translation of this publication.
Water and weapons are not friendly. Modern firearms can be exposed to water or submerged and remain operational. But samples intended for use in the air usually do not work well under water.
The Russian ADS assault rifle is designed to solve these problems. It is designed for special operations and is intended for use by combat swimmers of the Russian special forces. The machine was created in 2007 and first introduced in 2013. It was intended to replace the outdated APS ("Special Underwater Assault Rifle"), adopted by the USSR in the 1970s. APS fired a special needle-shaped bullet of caliber 5,66 mm, length 120 mm.
The modern ADF is built on a bullpup layout — the store is located behind the fire control handle. Due to this, the machine has a length of slightly less than 27 inches (660 mm) with a full-sized 16-inch barrel (415 mm) - like the AK-74. The ADF has automation based on the removal of powder gases, shoots from a closed shutter and has the ability to select a fire mode.
The ADF is equipped with a Picatinny rail. It has its own open sight and can be equipped with other sights or night vision devices.
On the barrel can be installed silent shooting device. A 40 mm grenade launcher is integrated into the design of the machine. It uses VOG-25 family shots and can fire at a range of up to 450 yards (400 m).
A truly innovative ADS assault rifle is thanks to the choice of ammunition. The machine is compatible with the standard AK-74 magazine and can use standard 5,45x39 mm cartridges for air combat.
For use under water, the ADF uses a special cartridge PSP. It includes the original elongated bullet with a flat nose. When moving in water, such a bullet creates a cavitation cavity around itself, which sharply reduces the resistance of the medium. The PSP cartridge has dimensions of 5,45x39 mm and is used with a standard Russian machine gun store. To switch from one cartridge to another you just need to replace the magazine.
On land using an automatic cartridge, the initial bullet speed is 1000 yards per second (900 m / s), firing range - 550 yards (500 m). According to these characteristics, the ADF is similar to other machines. Underwater, an ordinary bullet flies only 10 feet - so special bullets are required.
When using the SSP, the underwater firing range reaches 65 feet (20 m) at a depth of 10-12 feet. Increasing depth reduces the firing distance. It is unclear what characteristics the PSP cartridge shows in air. Probably, according to the main indicators, it is seriously inferior to the regular 5,45x39 mm.
According to the general characteristics, ammunition of the PSP when firing under water is inferior to the needle-shaped ammunition of the APS assault rifle. However, the advantage of the ADF machine is different. Together with the APS, the combat swimmer had to take another machine to work on land. A modern ADS machine performs the functions of both. That is why, as reported, the two-medium automatic dispenser is already in service with some special forces of the Russian Navy. | [
