Dielectric Sensing of Toxic and Explosive Chemicals via Impedance Spectroscopy and Plasmonic Resonance
Technical Report,01 Apr 2015,31 Dec 2015
University of California - Santa Barbara Santa Barbara United States
Pagination or Media Count:
The primary focus of this nine-month effort was to develop electronic sensors for hazardous chemicals. The first step was to identify materials that have interaction potential with chemicals of interest. In particular, specific reaction chemistry allows for resulting materials to exhibit specificity. Based on the most favorable materials, which included metal-oxides and metal-organic frameworks, impedance measurements and devices were pursued as the plasmonic resonance of these materials were far too weak to make sensible measurements or device architectures. Our results show that there are materials electronically sensitive enough to enable impedimetric devices that use the frequency-dependence fingerprint of AC impedance to improve selectivity.

Have you ever heard of programmatic advertising? Or, is this a term that you aren’t familiar with. In today’s digital advertising marketplace, there are a number of different ways to purchase digital advertising. And like everything else in the advertising realm, things change regularly and it’s important you keep up with those changes.
In the past, purchasing digital advertising was a complicated process that involved salesmen and ad buyers. It involved finding the websites to advertise on and then a process of negotiation. Ad buyers and website owners needed to come up with the rate that they both would agree to. This was fairly time intensive. And, it had a greater margin for error than the processed used in programmatic advertising.
Programmatic ad buying uses software tools to analyze websites, their traffic, their keywords and a number of other factors. This software then purchases available traffic automatically based on these variables. It handles the time-consuming tasks like sending insertion orders and placing advertising tags automatically. This automation eliminates the need for hands-on human intervention.
There are many different benefits of this type of advertising. As I mentioned above, it reduces the amount of human interaction that’s needed in the ad buying process. This is beneficial for two reasons. People make mistakes. And, people cost more money than machines. They work 8 hours a day, get sick, need time off, etc. All of this drives up the cost of advertising even digital advertising.
For the moment, programmatic ad buying is done primarily online on a variety of websites, blogs, and video channels. Since it is less time and labor intensive and prone to fewer errors, it’s entirely probable that digital advertising will be purchased this way even more frequently. It’s also possible that this type of advertising may make its way into other formats including television and radio advertising.

Triplex boat cable is commonly used for AC circuits in boats and recreational vehicles. It is an ideal choice when considering multiconductor boat cable. Pacer manufactures 14 AWG triplex cable in Sarasota FL, USA for longevity & easy installation. How is this accomplished? Well, it starts with finely stranded tinned copper conductors which prevent corrosion. These conductors also allow the cable to be flexible. Flexibility is essential when working in enclosed marine spaces. Another important aspect of 14 AWG triplex boat cables is the insulation. The PVC insulation is designed for protection from moisture and fatigue. It is created during the extrusion process. The extrusion process fills the voids between the conductors. This serves to eliminate any possibility of moisture or air between the wires. To enhance the quality of this cable, talcum powder is coated on the wires. The powder allows for the easy removal of the jacket during installation. Another reason 14 AWG triplex boat cable is ideal for use with multiconductor cable connectors.

We determine the number counts and z = 0-5 luminosity function for a well-defined, homogeneous sample of quasars from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). We conservatively define the most uniform statistical sample possible, consisting of 15,343 quasars within an effective area of 1622 deg 2 that was derived from a parent sample of 46,420 spectroscopically confirmed broad-line quasars in the 5282 deg 2 of imaging data from SDSS Data Release 3. The sample extends from i = 15 to 19.1 at z ≲ 3 and to i = 20.2 for z ≳ 3. The number counts and luminosity function agree well with the results of the Two Degree Field QSO Redshift Survey (2QZ) at redshifts and luminosities at which the SDSS and 2QZ quasar samples overlap, but the SDSS data probe to much higher redshifts than does the 2QZ sample. The number density of luminous quasars peaks between redshifts 2 and 3, although uncertainties in the selection function in this range do not allow us to determine the peak redshift more precisely. Our best-fit model has a flatter bright-end slope at high redshift than at low redshift. For z < 2.4 the data are best fit by a redshift-independent slope of β = -3.1 [Φ(L) ∝ L β]. Above z = 2.4 the slope flattens with redshift to β ≳ - 2.37 at z = 5. This slope change, which is significant at the ≳ 5 σ level, must be accounted for in models of the evolution of accretion onto supermassive black holes.

HOw just... Sacred 3 voted worst game of the year?
Does this actually impact Deep Silver's marketing team, think anyone will face repercussions?
Pity we can't reserve a row of skulls somewhere for the guys from Deep Silver responsible for this abomination.
Heads Should Roll...
If Llama8 can be a demon in Underworld, so can DS marketing department be an infamous enemy in the game. I'm thinking something along the lines of a multiheaded corrupter... but a hydra is too weak... Tiamat!
Now, we need to figure out how to remake this thing into an original uncopywriten design. Multiheaded demon or something?.. Maybe have have it <censored> Octagolamus...
Also, who's got 99 euro?!

- The James Webb telescope captured an image of M51, a galaxy 27 million light-years away.
- The telescope is 100 times more powerful than Hubble and can take images in unprecedented detail.
- Astronomers hope the image will shed light on how stars form in galaxies other than Milky Way.
A hypnotic image of a whirlpool galaxy captured by the James Webb telescope has revealed how NASA’s new observatory outclasses its predecessor, Hubble.
The image shows the majestic spiral arms of the M51, a mysterious galaxy 27 million light-years away in the constellation Canes Venatici.
NASA likened the galaxy to “a grand spiral staircase sweeping through space” with its arms made up of lanes of newly-formed stars.
The below image of M51, also known as the Whirlpool Galaxy, is a composite produced from data gathered by Webb’s Near-InfraRed Camera (NIRCam) and its Mid-InfraRed Instrument (MIRI).
Dark red regions show the cosmic dust that permeates the galaxy, while the red regions show the light from complex molecules forming on dust grains. Orange and yellow reveal the gas created from the birth of star clusters.
Astronomers hope the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) will shed new light on how stars form in galaxies other than Milky Way.
Stars are the building blocks of galaxies, and working out how they are born could help provide clues to how the universe formed.
Before Webb came along, the Hubble telescope provided a glimpse of star formation in galaxies such as M51.
In the below image taken by Hubble in January 2005, red represents hydrogen within giant star-forming regions, blue depicts young stars, and yellow shows older stars.
The image also features a yellowish dwarf galaxy at the tip of one of the M51’s arms called NGC 5195. The small galaxy has been gliding past the M51 for hundreds of millions of years.
“The compact galaxy appears to be tugging on the arm, the tidal forces from which trigger new star formation,” said NASA. That may be why M51’s spiral arms appear so prominent.
But the image from Hubble is vastly inferior to the latest one produced by JWST, which reveals patterns of star clusters that had never seen before.
This is because Hubble sees ultraviolet light, visible light, and a small slice of infrared, while JWST can see across the infrared spectrum, Insider previously reported.
Webb is also 100 times more powerful than Hubble, which allows astronomers to peer further into space.
“Webb is opening a new window into the early stages of star formation and stellar light, as well as the energy reprocessing of gas and dust,” according to the European Space Agency (ESA).
“Scientists are seeing star clusters emerging from their natal cloud in galaxies beyond our local group for the first time.”
When Hubble captured an image of M51 more than a decade ago, the team behind it said that they couldn’t wait to see the same image with the planned James Webb telescope, according to Space.com.
The new telescope, it seems, didn’t disappoint. | [

COLUMBUS, Ga. – Autopsy results have now been released for the Muscogee County school bus driver who died in a crash that also injured several students back in August 2016.
“He considered himself in good shape that morning,” Muscogee County Chief Deputy Coroner Freeman Worley told News 3 about 67-year-old Roy Newman.
Worley explained that Newman’s autopsy lists atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease as a contributing factor to the bus driver’s death. The coroner says Newman’s heart was 90% blocked by plaque and other buildup in his main artery.
“Your heart’s not getting oxygenated and nothing else at 90%,” Worley said.
However, that same autopsy report shows Newman died of blunt force trauma to the head, torso, and other extremities, not directly linked to Newman’s heart problem.Newman’s toxicology report also showed no known tested drugs or alcohol in his system.
“We don’t know whether he hit the steering wheel or object in the vehicle after the wreck, or if something happened with this blockage that caused him to have a wreck,” Worley told News 3. “Those are the two things they don’t really tell us, which came first.”
Worley says he’s going by the autopsy. But he adds that Columbus Police will have the final say in what really happened. News 3 reached out to both the Muscogee County School District, to learn more about Newman’s health, and the Columbus Police Department to learn where this investigation stands. However, neither the school district nor the police department returned our calls or responded to our interview requests.
“That would be up to [Columbus Police’s] determination,” Worley said. “It’s not showing it on our paperwork..”
The Muscogee County District Attorney asked the GBI to investigate last summer’s deadly crash. The GBI was also called upon to investigate an alleged body slamming incident that caused a teen to have his leg amputated. Superior Court Judge Gil McBride recently asked the GBI to look into alleged criminal activity linked to a settlement in a 2015 crash involving a Columbus Police officer.
It’s noted that the GBI has declined to get involved in two cases (due to ongoing investigations) and is reviewing the officer-involved lawsuit settlement. | [

In making its determination, the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department Coastal Fisheries Division used the best available scientific information including samples collected by using trawls, bag seines, and information gathered from the shrimping industry.
“Brown shrimp stocks have been very widely distributed this year with some areas of high population levels,” said Larry McKinney, Ph.D., TPWD coastal fisheries division director. “Shrimp are still moving to the Gulf from the bays, but there should be good catches available by July 15.”
The purpose of the closed Gulf season is to protect brown shrimp during their major period of emigration from the bays to the Gulf of Mexico until they reach a larger, more valuable size before harvest and to prevent waste caused by the discarding of smaller individuals.
Federal waters (from 9 to 200 nautical miles offshore) will open at the same time that state waters will open. The National Marine Fisheries Service chose to adopt rules compatible with those adopted by Texas.

- Military documents indicate that the EcoHealth Alliance approached DARPA in March 2018 for funding for research into bat-borne coronaviruses. The proposal, dubbed Project Defuse, was rejected by DARPA on safety concerns and allegations that it violated the moratorium on research into functional gains.
- The main report on the EcoHealth Alliance proposal surfaced a few months ago but has so far remained unconfirmed. Project Veritas has received a separate report to the Department of Defense Inspector General written by Joseph Murphy, a former DARPA fellow.
- The proposal does not mention or assess the potential risks of gain of function (GoF) research, according to a direct quote from the DARPA rejection letter.
- Project Veritas asked DARPA to comment on the hidden documents and spoke to communications chief Jared Adams, who, when asked how the documents were hidden, replied, “It doesn’t sound normal to me.”
[WASHINGTON, D.C. – 10. Januar 2022] Project Veritas has received startling, never-before-seen documents about the origins of COVID-19, the benefits of functional research, vaccines, potential treatments that have been suppressed, and the government’s efforts to hide it all.
The documents in question come from a report by the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, better known as DARPA, which was hidden in a top secret shared drive.
DARPA is an agency under the US Department of Defense that is responsible for researching technologies with potential military applications.
Project Veritas has received a separate report to the Department of Defense Inspector General written by Joseph Murphy, a former DARPA fellow.
The report said the EcoHealth Alliance approached DARPA in March 2018 for funding to research how bat-borne coronaviruses work. The proposal, dubbed Project Defuse, was rejected by DARPA due to security concerns and a perception that it violated the moratorium on function gains research.
According to the documents, the NIAID, led by Dr. Fauci is continuing the research in Wuhan, China, and at several locations in the United States.
Dr. Fauci has repeatedly asserted under oath that the NIH and NAIAD were not involved in functional research under the EcoHealth Alliance program. However, according to the documents Project Veritas received that explain why the EcoHealth Alliance’s application was rejected, DARPA has certainly classified the research as a functional gain.
“The application does not mention or assess the potential risks of Gain of Function (GoF) research,” a direct quote from the DARPA rejection letter.
Major Murphy’s report goes on to describe grave concerns about the COVID-19 gain-of-function program, document hiding, suppression of potential cures like ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine, and the mRNA vaccines.
Project Veritas asked DARPA to comment on the hidden documents and spoke to communications chief Jared Adams, who, when asked how the documents were kept secret, said, “That doesn’t sound normal to me. “If something is classified, it should be labeled,” said Adams. “I don’t know of any unmarked documents that are in an area classified as secret, no”.
In a video posted Monday night, Project Veritas CEO James O’Keefe asked DARPA a fundamental question:
“Who at DARPA made the decision to bury the original report? They could have alerted the Pentagon, the White House or Congress, which could have prevented this whole pandemic that resulted in the deaths of 5.4 million people around the world and many millions more people in a lot of pain and suffering. “
Dr. Anthony Fauci has not yet responded to a request for comment on this article.

According to OECD data, in 2018 South Korea spent over £74 billion on R&D, maintaining its position as the fifth largest R&D investor in the world after the United States, China, Japan and Germany. The Korean Government has set a target to increase the R&D investment to reach 5%. In 2020, the total government R&D budget was planned to be £15.73 billion, which is more than a 17% increase from the 2019 budget.
The majority of Korean R&D is conducted by the industrial sector (76.23%, 2017) and carried out within the ‘chaebol’ or the large family-controlled international conglomerates that dominate the Korean economy.
As part of efforts to find wider uses for holograms, researchers from the Samsung Advanced Institute of Technology (SAIT), one of the country’s chaebols, began to study the development of holographic displays. After eight years of trials, the team has published a paper on slim-panel holographic video displays (see HN November 2020), which claims to overcome many of the problems that have prevented the commercialisation of holographic systems which were first demonstrated at Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) back in 1990.
Existing holographic video devices are limited by the size of their components, both in terms of the physical space required as well as data size. This resulted in either a very narrow viewing angle on a larger display or a larger angle on a miniscule display. The size drawback of video holographic devices was the bulky lens that was required to gather any scattered light from the display’s pixels in order to project a quality image.
To reduce the lens size, the research team used a geometric phase lens, thus saving space and reducing the display to a centimetre of thickness. The new slim-panel holographic video display uses a steering-backlight unit and a holographic video processor to address those issues.
Outside of the chaebol network, the remainder of science research is funded by the government, with research performed by national research institutes and universities.
Prize winning technology
Toward the end of 2020, a hologram technology ETRI developed by South Korean researchers won the top prize at one of the world’s most renowned conferences on display technologies. ETRI – the government-funded Electronics and Telecommunications Research Institute in Daedeok Innopolis in Daejeon – announced that it had won the top prize at Display Week 2020, an annual event hosted by the Society for Information Display (SID). At the event, ETRI introduced its 1µm pixel pitch Spatial Light Modulator (SLM) panel and 360° tabletop holographic display system.
The use of such a high resolution SLM allows the phase and intensity of the light to be controlled and so allowing hologram images to be displayed without resorting to visual aids.
Larger and colour display
Currently, ETRI is developing a larger panel than what was exhibited in the SID, with the target of producing a 3.1-inch spatial light modulator with 230 million pixels. ETRI announced that it is also working on a colour SLM panel, by which full colour hologram images can be reproduced with just one panel instead of using three.
Both these case studies demonstrate that the commitment shown by government, industry and research institutes to prioritise the budget for science will pay dividends in the long run – even if you can’t always predict where the research will take you. | [

Site investigation services involve the identification of seafloor and subsurface hazards and constraints, including features such as seafloor scarps, slumps, expulsion features, faults, gas pockets, hydrates, shallow water flow zones, etc.
Observations of the riserless portion of the well include pre-spud activities, jetting conditions, and drilling of the initial casing sections of the well. Early detection of geologic hazards have resulted in critical changes to the well program to ensure safety and integrity of drilling activities.
Our wellsite geologists are professionals providing oversight geologic aspects of drilling operations. The role of the geologist is to ensure that all of the geologic information (logging, samples, lithology, etc.) is collected accurately and distributed to decision makers promptly. Sampling intervals, techniques, etc. are aspects of the geologists responsibilities. Daily geologic reports are prepared for review.
Real time monitoring of pore pressure utilizes LWD data (Sonic, resistivity, gamma ray), drilling data (torque, ROP, WOB, etc.), gas measurements, and changes in mud volume. Early detection of primary and secondary indicators of geopressure-related issues are used to formulate alerts and alarms to the drilling team.

AS a casino marketing manager, John Harland is used to counting up piles of cash – but he’ll be clinking coins of more ill-gotten gains when he takes to the stage to play money-loving Fagin in a charity production of Oliver! at the Towngate Theatre tonight.
The charity event will run tonight and tomorrow at the Basildon theatre and raise funds for local charities, Basildon Woman’s Aid and la Danse Fantastique.
It has been organised by Actz Entertainment, with many of the stars on their roster taking on roles in the production.
“First of all it’s a fundraiser,” explained Lewis Simmons, joint owner of the agency, who’s also Mr Bumble in the show.
“La Danse Fantastique is a performance school really. A theatre school for children, young people and, even adults, who’ve got disabilities. They are in the performance – there are children with Downs syndrome and autism, which is great. Lots of entertainers who work on the cabaret circuit are also giving their time for free.”
The well-known story, based on Charles Dicken’s Oliver Twist, features songs including Consider Yourself, As Long as He Needs Me and You’ve Got To Pick a Pocket or Two. Lewis can’t wait for the curtain to go up on the classic family show which he has a particular soft spot for.
“I was in Oliver! when I was 12-years-old at the Towngate with Basildon Operatic Society,” he explained. “Then, when I was 13 I was in it at the London Palladium. I’ve also done it twice as an adult.”
Despite it being an audience favourite, Lewis admits he needs to sell a few more tickets to make a profit to hand to the worthy charities, so he’s urging more people to come and see the show.
Oliver! at the Towngate Theatre, St Martin’s Square, Basildon, today and tomorrow, 7.30pm, £10, 01268 270066. | [

Consider a graph G and an initial random configuration, where each node is black with probability p and white otherwise, independently. In discrete-time rounds, each node becomes black if it has at least r black neighbors and white otherwise. We prove that this basic process exhibits a threshold behavior with two phase transitions when the underlying graph is a d-dimensional torus and identify the threshold values. © 2020 Elsevier Show more

Abnormal data detection is an important step to ensure the accuracy and reliability of node data in wireless sensor networks. In this paper, a data classification method based on convolutional neural network is proposed to solve the problem of data anomaly detection in wireless sensor networks. First, Normal data and abnormal data generated after injection fault are normalized and mapped to gray image as input data of the convolutional neural network. Then, based on the classical convolution neural network, three new convolutional neural network models are designed by designing the parameters of the convolutional layer and the fully connected layer. This model solves the problem that the performance of traditional detection algorithm is easily affected by relevant threshold through self-learning data characteristics of convolution layer. The experimental results show that this method has better detection performance and higher reliability. | [

Queen’s College, Lagos has unveiled its vision tagged ‘Rekindling the Torch of Excellence’, its maiden Hall of Fame for distinguished old girls of the school, as well as a solar powered water project donated by the Australian High Commission.
The event, which was held at the school’s premises, saw the likes of Mrs Efunjoke Coker, MFR, first indigenous principal of the school, Prof Grace Alele-Williams, Alhaja Lateefat Okunnu, OFR, Prof. Chinwe Obaji, Mrs Sola David-Borha, Prof. Folasade Ogunsola, Mrs Winifred Oyo-Ita and Hajia Aisha Abubakar inducted into the Hall of Fame.
Speaking on the vision of the school to be restored its establishing standards, Principal of Queen’s College, Dr Lami Amodu said: “This vision, Rekindling the Torch of Excellence, is born out of what the college stands for in the development of women, my dream of giving back to the college and the need to change our concept of quality education to align with the new reality.
“We are reaching out to individuals and organisations who share this vision and have benefited from the services of the products of our college.
“It gladdens my heart to also announce that some international organisations and governments have kick started this vision. One of them is Australian High Commission which has donated a solar powered water system that will address the problem of portable water in the school.”
Represented by Mrs Yvone Odo Thomas, Head of Civil Service of Nigeria, Mrs Oyo-Ita, one of the inductees, said: “It is a thing of joy to me as an old girl to underscore the fact that Queen’s College has continued to make significant impact.”
on the society and has been an oasis in the rampant desertification in the educational sector due to tremendous expansion. The present large population of students, without corresponding increase in infrastructural facilities, implies extra cost and hard work for high standards.
“I want to thank the Australian High Commissioner, His Excellency, Paul Lehmann, for keying into the vision of the Principal, Dr. Lami Amodu to generously construct a solar powered water system for the college. We as Nigerians appreciate your commitment to the Nigerian Girl-Child education. I implore other individuals and corporate organisations to partner with the college in its effort to ensure quality education. I will support the Federal Ministry of Education, with the cooperation of the Ministry of Lands and Urban Development and other relevant federal ministries to acquire an annex for the college, which is part of this vision, and in actualising other identified projects.”
Commending the effort of the principal, wife of the Governor of Lagos, Mrs Bolanle Ambode, represented by Mrs Adetutu Odunlami, said; “The authorities of this great college deserve commendation for their determination to reposition the school, upon noticing a decline in the high quality of education for which the school is known.
“It is a mark of rare sincerity and truthfulness to make such an observation and a demonstration of diligence and to prepare to redress it through this vision. I profoundly appreciate the Australian Government for kindly donating to the school to complement government’s efforts.
I also wish to commend the management of the school for the award presentation to distinguished old girls, and their deserved welcome into the Hall of Fame. They have made their marks in various disciplines and careers and I urge them to continue to inspire the girls to great achievements.” | [

Health minister says clinics can't charge patients $500 after billing $169 to RAMQ. But doctors say the ban doesn't reflect their expenses.
When John Taylor heard that 11 endoscopy clinics in the Montreal area plan to close, he was so upset that he begged the Quebec health minister to reconsider.
One of those clinics saved his life two years ago.
Now, the private Westmount clinic and 10 others say they won’t be able to afford to stay open under a government ban on billing patients accessory medical fees.
Taylor was 63 and worried when he decided to go to MD Specialists, where doctors from several hospitals work part-time.
He had found blood in his stool, but his family doctor believed it was likely due to hemorrhoids. Blood tests came back negative for cancer markers. But eight months later, Taylor wasn’t reassured, and asked for a colonoscopy. When he heard the wait was one year, he turned to MD Specialists — and got an appointment within two weeks.
“And it was Stage 3 colon cancer that had spread to the lymph nodes,” Taylor said. “If I had waited another year … the cancer would have gone further.”
Taylor believes he’s not the only one who would benefit from quick testing, and wrote to the health minister to say so.
But in January, Quebec’s ban on billing patients accessory medical fees is set to take effect, and the hardest hit will be the private clinics doing colonoscopies.
The wait for a free colonoscopy in a Montreal hospital ranges from six months to two years, except for emergencies. That means thousands of patients redirected from the clinics back to the public health system can expect even longer wait times, colon-cancer specialists have warned, unless the government works out some kind of financial arrangement. Time is running out for Taylor’s clinic. Its lease is up on Dec. 10.
But in an interview with the Montreal Gazette this week, Quebec Health Minister Gaétan Barrette said clinics should look for financial relief elsewhere, for example, to the medical federations.
Barrette said clinics will have to absorb the accessory fees they charge patients. There will be no more “double-dipping,” Barrette said, referring to charging for services already covered by RAMQ, the provincial health-insurance plan.
However, endoscopic specialists maintain that the ban on user fees doesn’t reflect the medical reality in their specialty. The association of private Cliniques d’endoscopie du Québec members say they’re ready to work more hours in the public health network, but there’s no room for them because hospitals are hemmed by budget cuts.
Doctors working in colonoscopy clinics say they are filling a gap in the health system by working faster and cheaper than the public system can deliver.
While RAMQ pays a doctor $169 per colonoscopy whether it is done in a private clinic or in a hospital, the private clinics carry expenses that hospitals don’t have — from renting space to the buying and upkeep of equipment, nursing and technician staff, sterilization, sedation and other medication — and costs passed down to the patient are for goods and services that are not insured by RAMQ. Patients pay between $500 and $600 to have a colonoscopy in a clinic.
But Barrette said if the clinics want to continue treating patients, they should drop out of Medicare. He’s not forcing them to close, he said. However they will no longer be able to charge RAMQ $169, and then the patient $500, he said. “They will not be allowed to double bill. They can’t operate like that.”
Barrette announced the ban on extra fees in September, despite having passed a bill last year that standardized use of those fees. The two-tier system — allowing some patients to jump the public waitlists for faster service in private — has existed in Quebec for many years, but this fall federal Health Minister Jane Philpott leaned on Quebec to enforce the Canada Health Act and abolish the fees or be penalized through deductions in transfer payments.
Doctors say they are being portrayed as villains for opening the highly specialized clinics when the public system has failed to deliver services in a timely manner.
In Ontario, where about a quarter of colonoscopies are done outside of a hospital, the government injected $11 million into hospital colonoscopies in 2007-2008, determining it costs $320 per case — excluding physician fees, equipment or capital – it was for operating costs only. Which works out to about the same as the fees charged in a private clinic in Quebec.
But Barrette said the private clinics wouldn’t be in business if not for the profit. To alleviate pressure on the public network, Barrette said last year he proposed extra funding to cover extended hours on evenings and weekends at St. Luc Hospital of Centre Hospitalier de l’Université de Montréal, which does 22,000 scopes | [

About Aluminum Trailers
When it comes to towing heavy objects, like cars, boats, and horses, weight is a very important issue. An aluminum trailer is lightweight, which reduces strain on the towing vehicle. This means that you can avoid a lot of additional weight. Even small amounts of weight increase fuel usage and wear down on components, like brakes and motors. Aside from their low weight, aluminum trailers are very durable, which is useful as the metal can take a fair bit of abuse. If you sell or transport cars for a living, an aluminum car trailer is a must-have to move your goods from point A to point B. You may also find a trailer useful if you enjoy sailing and need to transport your boat. eBay offers an excellent selection of items, from aluminum boat trailers to large car trailers. You can find both new and used selections to fit your budget. | [

A drive through the Sony Sugar catchment region reveals a life of misery for cane farmers.
Overmature cane is a common sight in the villages. Some have dried and are being used as firewood.
Jaggery processing factories are sprouting in every corner to cash in on the desperate farmers.
The factories pay much less than established millers such as Sony Sugar Company. Despite this, some farmers opt to sell their cane to them to get quick cash to solve their financial crisis.
Mr James Omollo, 50, has a farm in Rongo, Migori County. He has not harvested for more than two years. He does not know what to do with his overmature cane.
“I have visited the factory (Sony) several times but I am being told to be patient. Cane on my neighbour’s farm is also overmature. I am contemplating switching to another cash crop,” he said.
Mr Tom Onyango, a father of five from Ranen in the same county, said: “I have no option but to take my cane to jaggery processing factories. I need money for my children’s school fees.”
HAVERSTING AND PAYMENT PROBLEMS
According to Mr Onyango, cane farming was lucrative 20 years ago when harvesting and payments were done on time.
“The sugar industry has no future unless the government expands the milling capacity of our factories. Cane farming has increased but the crushing capacity of our millers has remained the same. This is the genesis of our problems,” said Mr Onyango.
Mr John Agwenge has already switched to soya bean farming after waiting for more than two years for his cane to be harvested.
He sold his cash crop to the neighbouring Sukari Industries in Ndhiwa, which is privately owned.
Some farmers have been taking their cane to the Trans Mara Sugar Company
Sony currently pays Sh3,200 per tonne, although growers have been pushing for more than Sh4,000 due to the high cost of living and farm inputs.
A new cane variety, D8484, matures within 15 months, but many farmers have not planted it.
“The new variety will not make any difference to us if it will still take two years to get harvested,” said Mr Elijah Oyombe, another farmer.
“A number of cane growers within the Sony Sugar belt are now planning to stop farming the crop altogether because our pleas are falling on deaf ears,” said Kenya National Federation of Sugarcane Farmers Secretary-General Ezra Okoth.
The official said cane farming, which supported the livelihoods of millions of Nyanza residents, was “now becoming a liability”.
A top manager who requested anonymity because he is not authorised to talk to the media said the quantity of cane produced by growers in the region “overwhelmed our milling capacity, leading to delays in harvesting”.
Mr Okoth, however, thanked President Uhuru Kenyatta for coming to the rescue of the ailing Mumias Sugar Company and asked the government to consider writing off the huge debts of all millers so that they “start on a clean balance sheet”. | [

The latest from the US is that the power couple has of late been fighting which has resulted in the Keeping up with the Kadashians actress to ask for a break, the Daily Mail reports.
This comes shortly after Kim Kadashian’s Paris robbery ordeal. Apparently, Kim felt like she couldn’t lean on the “workaholic” rapper, who was becoming increasingly “paranoid” and not sleeping.
The Daily Mail reports that the 39-year-old Famous hit maker had become “unbearable” to live with and the duo, who share a 11,000 sq ft Bel Air home together, were fighting a lot.
“He would be up all night ranting about things,” said the insider who added that Kanye “unraveled” when he realized he can’t do it all. He’d be up drawing, writing and sketching, or pacing and doing push-ups. He would not calm down and go to bed.
Things reportedly came to a head when Kanye’s on-stage rants became increasingly worrying and controversial, ending one of his concerts after just three songs.
In Sacramento, California the rapper launched into a 15-minute tirade attacking friend Beyonce and begging Jay Z to call him before walking off stage. Two days later the producer canceled his remaining Saint Pablo tour dates.
“She didn’t know if she could take it anymore, and this time she refused to support him,” a source close to Kim revealed.
It all became too much for Kim, 36, who, at the time of Kanye’s breakdown was planning her first public appearance since the jewelry heist, at the Angel Ball in New York to honour her late father Robert Kadashian.
But as she left for the east coast, the KUWTK star informed her husband of two years that she needed a break and told him she didn’t want to talk to him, according to Us Weekly.
A source said Kim felt like Kanye had bailed on her and that “she felt like she needed him to be stable and her rock instead of the other way around.”
While Kim, who suffered nightmares and flashbacks, was “disappointed at the lack of support” from her husband after the October 3 heist, he himself was struggling to deal with the terrifying incident.
The experience reportedly left Kanye “completely freaked out” and the fact that it happened near the nine-year anniversary of the loss of his mother Donda only deepened the rapper’s distress. | [

SpaceX: Elon Musk Hints at New Rocket Recovery Plan
SpaceX’s quest to reuse rockets took another step forward Tuesday. In a Twitter response to a fan question, CEO Elon Musk revealed that the company is likely to be able to re-use the fairing protective shield after it’s landed in the ocean. The prospect is a big step forward for the company’s recovery technology, paving the way for future missions to Mars and beyond.
While SpaceX has almost perfected the art of recovering the rocket booster, costing around $46.5 million of the $62 million total construction costs for a Falcon 9, the $6 million fairing remains elusive. The company’s previous plan was to use a giant net on the back of an ocean ship, with Mr. Steven moving into position after launch. However, its attempt to catch the fairing failed earlier this month when it narrowly missed the net. Musk reassured his Twitter fans at the time that there’s “nothing wrong with a little swim” and they could fly again, but Musk has now gone further to suggest the net may not be necessary at all.

Ditching the net would avoid one of SpaceX’s trickiest challenges. Mr. Steven was first deployed in February 2018, accompanies by a modified fairing designed to make it easier for the shield to glide to the mitt. Unfortunately it didn’t quite work out that way, missing its target by “a few hundred meters” off the coast of Southern California. In June, Musk announced plans to upgrade the net to a size four times larger, totaling 0.9 acres.
The ship came very close earlier this month, but the larger net was not quite enough. Fortunately, the upgrades to the fairing enabled a softer landing with parachutes slowing down the speed and thrusters guiding the fairing to a more suitable spot. It’s not quite the result the company was after, but Tuesday’s comments suggest its new approach may make the catcher’s mitt less necessary than before.
SpaceX plans to use rocket reusability technology to send a manned mission to Mars as soon as 2024, using liquid methane rocket propellant to refuel by harvesting resources from the Martian atmosphere.

Amazing performances you MUST watch when in Korea
The first thing that comes to your mind when people mention Korean performances must be Kpop or Kdramas, right? Truth to be told, there’s actually way more variety of performances than just what you watch on TV. If you’re asking, “What more can there be besides Kpop and Kdramas performances?”, then prepare your heart as we’re about to introduce you to a whole other world of Korean performances. Trust us when we say—these exciting performances will be sure to keep you on the edge of your seat!
To start off, we highly recommend that you check out the historical performances at the Jeongdong Theater. “But historical performances are not exciting enough”, you might say. We’ve got to stop you there because the ones from Jeongdong Theater are! Their classic folklore and historical plays are all laced with a modern touch, making them fun and enjoyable to watch. Don’t worry about missing out on any hidden messages as there will be English narration provided on a screen.
Want some extra fun? Give the janggu experience a go—it’s a special activity for you to learn the Samul, a Korean traditional percussion, rhythm from the professional players of the theatre.
Be ready to be blown away by this exhilarating, gravity-defying martial arts performance! This one-of-a-kind performance is a combination of acrobatic stunts and live-action by talented actors, guaranteed to make you fall off your seat laughing. The story begins with a family of martial artists welcoming the grandfather’s visitor, a suitor who has a special skill, for his granddaughter. Find out how this unique family tries to stay together despite going through a series of misadventures.
If you fell head over heels over the film adaptation of Finding Mr. Destiny, then the original version, which is actually a musical, will make you fall deeper in love. Head on over to Daehak-Ro and see how this lighthearted rom-com unfolds as the hero and heroine bring you on an adventure of love and laughter—might we add that it’s a great way to spend your afternoon!
Did you know that Super Junior, Astro, ITZY, AB6IX, Mamamoo and many more performed at Busan One Asia Festival (BOF) last year? Okay, we know we said performances other than Kpop, but BOF is not all about Kpop—although we have to admit that it is the highlight of this festival. In fact, BOF is actually a Hallyu festival dedicated to showcasing all of Korea’s music and culture over a span of seven (yes, SEVEN) days. Last year, BOF Land was like a playground filled with board games, K-POP related VR, webtoon, drawing show, caricature as well as performances by Busan jazz and indie groups. “Made In Busan” also presented a variety of local performances telling stories from the wartime as Busan was the capital of refuge during the Korean War.
Wait, there’s more! All these performances and more are always happening all year round. Just visit our website for the full list. | [

Few games have a risk-reward mechanic as tense and thrilling as Need for Speed Rivals.
As a street racer behind the wheel of an exotic sports car, the longer you drive at outrageous speed avoiding the aggressive police pursuit, the more your points multiplier grows and the higher your wanted level. But if you wreck your vehicle or get busted by the cops before banking your points total in a hideout, you’ll lose everything.
It's exciting pushing the limits when your car is nearing critical damage, evading the police with a perfectly timed nitrous boost, a daring jump or even sneakily hiding under a secluded bridge.
Points are used to buy and upgrade increasingly exotic cars, but even the beasts you can drive at the start of the game are capable of eye-watering speed and outrageous drifts around corners.
Rivals also offers the chance to play as the cops, but it's not as interesting, even with "pursuit tech" toys such as EMP blasts, roadblocks, spike strips and mines.
The huge and varied open world of (Californian-inspired) Redview County includes winding roads through forests and snow-capped mountains as well as coastal drives, urban sections, farming country and deserts.
Events include standard races and time trials, and wild pursuits can begin whether you’ll in the middle of an event or just cruising. You are also given increasingly elaborate lists of objectives to perform.
Interestingly, you share the world with five real online players as well as computer-controlled rivals, so you can find yourself being pursued by a relentless human-controlled cop while trying to complete a challenge or and able to initiate head-to-head races against friends.
Unfortunately, the large size of the world makes interaction infrequent and difficult to deliberately encounter. It’s one of the few flaws in this heart-pumping arcade-style racer.

RTP Slot Online Hari ini is a narrow opening or slit, usually one for receiving something, such as a coin or letter. It may also refer to a position or assignment, such as the job of chief copy editor. The slot in the wing of certain birds helps to maintain the flow of air over their wings as they fly.
RTP Slot Online Hari ini are a popular form of casino gaming that is available on many platforms. They offer players the chance to win large sums of money by spinning reels and completing combinations. There are a number of different types of slots, each with its own theme and features. Some are progressive jackpots and others have bonus games. Some are even touch-screen compatible, allowing players to use their fingers to spin the reels.
A slots game’s paytable is an important part of understanding how the game works. It explains the rules of the game and provides information on what symbols will trigger which payouts. It is also where you can judge a slot’s volatility, which is the likelihood of winning or losing. A high volatility slot will typically not win often but when it does, the payouts will be larger.
Another feature of a good RTP Slot Online Hari ini machine is the number of pay lines. Usually, a slot will have X amount of paylines. Each of these lines will have a different probability of winning, depending on the symbols that land on them. It is best to play as many lines as possible, as this will give you the highest chance of hitting a winning combination.
Lastly, a good slot machine should have a high RTP (return to player). This is a percentage of the total amount that can be won by a slot machine. A higher RTP means a better chance of winning, and therefore a lower house edge.
When you’re playing a RTP Slot Online Hari ini machine, remember to focus on speed and concentration. While it is true that luck plays a huge role in the outcome of any spin, you can increase your chances of winning by keeping your head in the game and eliminating distractions. This means turning off your phone, silencering your friends, and minimizing other temptations while you’re playing. In addition, it’s a good idea to practice beforehand by spinning some virtual coins. This will help you get a feel for the game before spending real money. And always play with a bankroll that you can afford to lose. If you don’t, you will find yourself out of money faster than you think! Good luck! | [

Week 14 Steam Greenlight
We have some huge news this week! We’ve put our game on Steam Greenlight! If you’re reading this, you probably already knew that but just in case you didn’t here’s a link to the page:
The initial comments that were coming in made us realize that people very much wished it was a co-op game so I got to work on adding that feature in immediately. I’m proud to announce that we now have co-op mode as well as the normal single player mode. The best part is that you can switch between the 2 on the fly so a friend can jump in at any time.
Another big issue that people had with the game was the fact that the climb animation didn’t look great. Our animator had actually never animated anything before this project and he decided to pick up Spine and set out to learn it. I’d say they all look great considering but I believe climb was just a difficult one to pull off in 2D. We’ll continue to work on it and hopefully we’ll be able to improve it enough to the point that people like it.
Also this past week I submitted Above: The Fallen to the Intel Level Up 2017 contest. I’m not sure that anything will come of it but I had to at least try since we’ve gotten a pretty decent response on Steam. | [

This sleek blend of an advanced robe, a conventional kimono and a legitimate coat has been a shockingly in vogue and all around acknowledged pattern since the previous summer. A fancier, single-shaded adaptation of a year ago’s midriff length elegant gowns absolutely worth bringing down from the runways that it is administering this. They are slouchy, ample and lightweight. In spite of the fact that tossed in with these late spring trench coats, only for it, belts, particularly a medium-estimate obi belt, with a bunch in the side, can finish the look.
Drawing helps to form design solutions. Designers take notes and sketches whilst on trips from television, films, whilst shopping or researching, from books, galleries, etc. Sketching is an important part of understanding the human form and basic form of dress pattern. Sketchbook is a meaning of practicing the skills of drawing. It develops your illustration and fashion awareness. It is a visual diary of places, events, ideas, patterns, textures, form and colour. Drawing is a presentation of both design and illustration.
Born in Rome in 1890 to an aristocratic mother and an intellectual father, Schiaparelli soon rebelled against the conventional life of the upper classes. Her desire for exploration and experimentation landed her in hot water as a teen, when she published a book of poems with decidedly sensual overtones. Her work deeply offended her parents, who punished her by placing her in a convent. Schiaparelli was so determined to escape from the nunnery that she initiated a hunger strike which resulted in her release. By her early twenties she had fled to London, where she could live under less scrutiny. Later, during a foray in New York, she joined with artist friends and they all made their way to Paris…
I love Valentino, Tom Ford, Mary Quant, Yohi Yamamato and Donna Karen. I pull from these guys a lot for my cosplay. No, that isn’t sacrilege. Cosplay cannot be ignored as far as a money making design market goes. Top designs have trickled into cosplay and cosplay has trickled into top designs. There is just no way around it. Nor should there be. 🙂
Like Halston, Calvin Klein epitomized disco glamour in the freewheeling late Seventies. His tight designer jeans, which clung to the sleek bodies of the greatest beauties of the day, including the young Brooke Shields, cemented his fame and made him millions of dollars. However, Calvin Klein’s reign continued well into the 80’s and 90’s – his spare, stripped-down designs offered a minimalist perspective that carried a very modern message. The use of sexuality in his ads was often a keystone of his success; his campaigns were designed to send overt messages and perhaps to shock. Today, his empire is still strong, despite some turbulence in the late nineties: his suits, dresses, and couture still offer a unique viewpoint.
Women who enjoy the artsy style tend to stay away from the traditional ‘trends’ of the fashion world and love to make a statement with their clothing. Oftentimes they will be the creator of their own fashions, designing and creating their own blouses, hats, and jackets. Each artsy style will be different per woman, as everyone has their own idea of what ‘art’ truly is. That’s what makes this particular fashion style so unconventional and interesting.
His interest in sewing and fashion started at an early age; as a young boy, he tailored clothes and created hats for his mother and sisters to wear. After graduating from high school, Frowick went to University in Indiana, but he lasted only one semester. Dropping out of University led him to a more creative life: he took night school courses at an art institute in Chicago and began to work as a window-dresser.
India, a diverse nation though, has no typical or standard dressing style now a days. With the diversification of dressing-style, the style mavens have created a variety in dressing styles. Now people even wear shalwar qameez, sarees, churidars, kurtis, frocks, gowns, long shirts, trousers, jeans, capris, puffed sleeves, deep necks, in fact there is a fusion of western and eastern culture! In India fashion is put forward by the film-industry. In this day and age, Bollywood is considered a trend setter of Indian-fashion that revamp the top Bollywood celebrities. These mavens have not only fascinated Indian public but have also grabbed the attention of the world towards it.

This process, also known as the Phoredox process, is composed of an anaerobic zone preceding the Bardenpho process to achieve biological phosphorus removal. Part c
F. BioDenipho Process
FIG. 7.38.8 Continued in Figure 7.38.8 is a schematic diagram of the process. It is similar to the Bardenpho process in that the design includes an influent detention time of 18 to 24 hr, an internal recycling rate of 200 to 400% of the influent flow rates, and no partitioning of each zone.
This process can achieve an effluent NOx-N of 2 mg/l or less with proper detention time in the primary and secondary anoxic zones. However, the inherently low F/M of the process requires chemical polishing to achieve an effluent total phosphorus concentration of 1 mg/l. This process is used by more than 10 installations in the United States. Table 7.38.7 shows the design parameters.

Mortgage rates edged higher for the second week in a row and are at their highest level since July, according to Freddie Mac’s latest survey of lenders:
- 30-year fixed-rate mortgages averaged 3.98% with an average 0.6 point for the week ending Nov. 12, 2015. A year ago, the rate averaged 4.01%.
- 15-year fixed rates averaged 3.20% with an average 0.6 point. The same term priced at 3.20% a year ago.
- 5-year adjustable-rate mortgages priced at 3.03% with an average 0.4 point. Last year at this time, the same ARM averaged 3.02%.
“A surprisingly strong October jobs report showed 271,000 jobs added and wage growth of 0.4% from last month, exceeding many experts’ expectations,” Sean Becketti, chief economist for Freddie Mac, said in a release. “The positive employment reports pushed Treasury yields to about 2.3% as investors responded by placing a higher likelihood on a December rate hike. Mortgage rates followed with the 30-year jumping 11 basis points to 3.98%, the highest since July.”
Meanwhile, home loan demand sagged during the week of Nov. 6, according to the Mortgage Bankers Association. Mortgage applications were down 1.3% from one week earlier while refinance applications fell 2%.
Home sellers are optimistic, not fearful this year
Home sellers are optimistic but the real estate market is approaching “normalcy,” according to a new survey conducted by Redfin. The report says that last year sellers cited the fear of rising home prices and interest rates as a prime motivator for selling their home and buying another. This year, based on the responses from 730 home sellers, listing a home is likely to be more a matter of a lifestyle decision, such as upgrading or downsizing.
One in five sellers also say they want to pull out a profit from their home’s recent value appreciation.
“Seller optimism is flying high right now,” Redfin chief economist Nela Richardson said. “But buyers are more grounded now and pricing a home too high is risky. More sellers are having to drop their initial asking price this fall than a year ago.”

Latisse® is FDA approved for the treatment of hypotrichosis (inadequate, or too little hair) of the eyelashes. It leads to increased eyelash growth, thickness, and darkness. The exact mechanisms of action is unknown, but Latisse® is thought to increase the percentage of hairs that are in the growth phase. It takes approximately 12-16 weeks for maximum benefit, but improvement in lashes can be seen at 6-8 weeks*. The effect on eyelash growth stops once the medicine is no longer used.
Each night, the patient places one drop of Latisse® on a disposable sterile applicator and evenly applies it to the skin of the upper eyelid margin at the base of the lashes. They then blot off any excess solution and dispose of the sterile applicator.
Number of treatments:
Daily treatments are needed. The effects will stop once the medicine is stopped.
Appointment Time (may vary):
Physician consultation required.

Metallic yarns or threads, in general, have been known for more than 3000 years. Gold and silver were hammered into extremely thin sheets, then cut into ribbons and worked into fabrics. These were the first ‘man made’ fibres, which came thousands of years before nylon or rayon. The Persians made fabulous carpets with gold thread and the Indians, ornamental sarees with it. The metal threads were twisted, doubled or wrapped around some other thread such as cotton.
With the advancement of technology, metal/conductive textiles found extensive functional applications. These materials have high electrical conductivity and radar reflecting property, yet are lightweight and flexible. Various methods have been developed to coat fibers and textile materials by metals.
» sputter coating
» coating metal powder with binders
» electro less coating
» vacuum deposition
Many technical applications demand properties which cannot be obtained by simply processing common textile material into single textile fabric. However, combination of knitted structure, textile and metal yarn of wire make it possible to create innovative products for multipurpose technical application. Thus knitted fabrics are flexible and extensible and metal wire possess properties which are advantageous in technical textile with regard to their permanent antistatic behaviour, known conductivity, shielding from electro magnetic field & resistance to cutting.
The term metallic fibre, in its general sense, means simply a fibre that is made from metal. The generic term “metallic” was adopted by the U.S. Federal Trade Commission and is defined as: A manufactured fibre composed of metal, plastic-coated metal, metal-coated plastic, or a core completely covered by metal. Thus, metallic fibres are: fibres produced from metals, which may be alone or in conjunction with other substances.
These metal filaments were made by beating soft metals and alloys, such as gold, silver, copper and bronze, into thin sheets, and then cutting the sheets into narrow ribbon-like filaments. The filaments were used entirely for decorative purposes, providing a glitter and sparkle that could not be achieved by other means.
As textile fibres, these metal filaments had inherent short comings which restricted their use. They were expensive to produce; they tended to be inflexible and stiff, and the ribbon-like cross-section provided cutting edges that made for a harsh, rough handle; they were troublesome to knit or weave, and they had only a limited resistance to abrasion. Apart from gold, the metals would tend to tarnish, the sparkle being dimmed with the passage of time. Multicomponent Metallic Filaments
In recent years, the ribbon filament of metal has undergone a transformation, which has changed the commercial outlook, for this ancient product. The metal of the filament is now sandwiched between layers of plastic, which protect it from the atmosphere and from other corrosive influences. The multicomponent filaments produced by slitting sandwich materials of this type are stronger and more robust than the filaments cut from metal foil alone. They retain the glitter of the metal during prolonged periods of use, and have a soft, pleasant handle. Coloured pigments may be added to the adhesive used in sticking the plastic films to the metal foil or metallized film.
Metallic fibres of this type are now widely used in the textile industry, and are produced in a range of colours and forms by many manufacturers. They remain, however, essentially decorative materials and their applications are restricted to this type of use. Modern metallic fibres of the multi-component type are based largely on aluminium, which provides sparkle, and glitter at fraction of the cost of the early types of decorative fibre based for example, on gold.
The aluminium in these fibres is in the form of a narrow ribbon-filament of either (a) metal foil, or (b) a...

After about three to four months of testing, the app will go live, letting drivers use smart phones to check on availability of parking spaces, city manager says
Through the end of this week, people may see a three-man crew working in public parking spaces throughout the City of Sarasota, City Manager Tom Barwin noted in his Feb. 17 newsletter. “They’re installing electronic sensors that will provide information on parking availability,” Barwin wrote.
“Through the use of a cell phone app, drivers will be able to make smart parking decisions based on availability and lessen their time seeking a space,” he added.
City staff was approached by a private “smart parking” company, Streetline, which proposed installing the infrastructure for the system and operating it “at no cost to the City,” Barwin emphasized. “Following due diligence by the Parking Operations Division, we decided to embark on this tech savvy program that will empower drivers and strengthen parking management,” he added.
One to two sensors (slightly larger than a hockey puck) will be installed per block into the blacktop, he explained. Combined with other reporting technology, the sensors will enable accurate aggregation of parking data, he noted. Then through use of sophisticated algorithms, the sensors will report “with high accuracy information about the availability of parking spaces,” Barwin continued.
Once the program is up and running, that information will be available via a mobile app, he pointed out.
While the sensors will be installed by the end of this week, it will take the company three to four months to confirm the equipment is working properly, Barwin wrote. Afterward, the firm will activate the system for public use, he noted. “We’ll keep you posted when the app can be downloaded and used in Sarasota,” he added.
Barwin also extended his thanks to Parking General Manager Mark Lyons for pursing the cutting-edge approach to parking management. | [

In November of last year, I downloaded and started knitting the free “Shavo” sweater pattern by Berroco, in grey, size XL, for the husband.
using DMC Magnum on 5.5mm needles (4mm for the neck ribbing). That was finished just before Christmas. Then, because I enjoyed knitting this pattern so much, I cast on again, following size M to make a pink version for myself.
Happy dancing today, because it’s finished – yay! and it’s lovely and snuggly and warm.
I knitted mine also using a DMC Magnum yarn, which is an acrylic/wool mix. Also using 5.5mm needles and 4mm for the neck ribbing. I followed the pattern to the letter but should maybe have altered sleeve length slightly.
They’re probably a good inch too long, and the cuff is rather wide, slipping down over my lady’s wrists & hands. Since it’s a men’s sweater, I should (on hindsight) have decreased a little more for the cuffs. But not to worry – it’s a lovely big slouchy sweater and will keep me nice and warm. The grey version for the husband used approx 670g of yarn in size XL. The pink version required 600g.

Have you ever looked at your Instagram bio from other users' perspective? Does it feel boring or even blank? Let's fix that with some Instagram bio font ideas in this article.
How to use custom fonts on instagram?
Have you ever seen custom fonts on Instagram users' bios? I'm sure you have. Instagram allows users to customize their profiles with "custom fonts". But what are they, and how can you use them?
Bio fonts are not actually fonts. They are just characters from an extended character set called Unicode. You typically don't use them in daily use, but they are here to help you stand out.
It's pretty hard to list them all because Unicode contains more than 149,186 characters. They are used for special mathematical formulas, foreign languages, and so on.
You are free to use them if you know how. However, trying to manually list them is pretty much impossible. That's why we created our bio font tool. It will generate nice bio fonts for you in seconds.
Simply go to the fancy text generator and type what you want in your bio. But let's inspire yourself first with the ideas below.
Ideas for bio fonts
All the ideas shown below can be created using our free tool available at Fancy text generator.
Squared characters in bio
You can use square characters for the part of your bio that contains your name or profession. This type of text will draw users' attention. However, keep in mind that this text is harder to read than regular text. Therefore, we do not recommend going crazy with square characters. Keep them on one line and combine them with another font that is easier to read.
Boldy instagram bio
On the other hand, if you need to grab users' attention while keeping readability at the highest possible level, you can use bold text in your Instagram bio. Again, do not put bold text on multiple lines and mix it with other fonts to create the best result.
Ghetto instagram bio
This font is pretty fancy but also one of the toughest to read. We recommend using this font for text that is not too hard to read and is memorable, such as your name or brand. Do not write longer text with this font, as your users may have a hard time reading it.
Italic & Bold Bio
This font has no readability issues and can be used for larger text as well.
Outline glow Bio
This font is harder to read but very fancy. Use it for shorter text, and you will get amazing results when combined with other fonts.
Mixing with Emojis
The final idea is not only to use our fancy text generator but also to add emojis to the text. Which emojis to add is up to you. You can easily list them all via the mobile keyboard on your Instagram app. However, do not overfill your Instagram bio with dozens of emojis. Use a maximum of 4 to 6 emojis to get the best appearance result.
We have covered what those "custom fonts" are on other users' Instagram bios and how to quickly use them with our tool.
We have also covered a few font ideas that we hope will kick off your inspiration. Don't forget not to overfill your profile with dozens of custom fonts and emojis, and keep readability in mind.
We have also provided a few ideas that can help you stand out. We hope you will create an amazing Instagram bio! | [

Birdman reportedly has to give up his 20,000-square-foot Miami mansion after a $12 million foreclosure lawsuit. After such a long run as one of hip-hop’s most pivotal, profitable figures, one must wonder how he fell so far. According to Headkrack, it probably has to do with how he’s been moving his money since his heyday. Click on the audio player to hear more in this exclusive clip from the Hip-Hop Spot on “The Rickey Smiley Morning Show.”

Shanghai update will finally make Ethereum staking withdrawals possible
Despite the poor performance on the market and tumbling network activity, the development of Ethereum has not stopped for a minute, and developers have recently come up with the scope of the upcoming Shanghai update today.
First and foremost, developers agreed on the scope of the upcoming Shanghai update today; it will include some existential points like staked Ethereum withdrawals, implementation of EVM Object Format, time based EL forking and more.
Ethereum devs agreed on the scope of Shanghai today. It’s going to be:
– staked ETH withdrawals
– big EOF implementation
– warm coinbase
– limit and meter initcode
– time based EL forking
– getpayloadV2 and getpayloadbodiesbyrange
— Christine Kim (@christine_dkim) December 8, 2022
Apart from the staking withdrawals, all bullet points described by Christine Kim can be removed from Shanghai if developers see that it significantly delays the March 2023 activation date. The rigidity of staking withdrawals is not coincidental, as staking and ETH withdrawal from contracts remains a sensitive topic that has recently caused a dispute in the Ethereum community after no clarity on this topic has been provided by the project’s representatives.
The second most important addition to Ethereum would be the implementation of the Ethereum Object Format. The new feature would enable code validation during the contract creation process, which allows code versioning without an additional version field on the account. Technically, EOF is a new container format for the Ethereum Virtual Machine bytecode with once-off validation at deployment time.
With the Shanghai update, users will be able to work with a more scalable Ethereum network in comparison to what we saw in 2021. With the series of EIPs (Ethereum Improvement Proposals) being implemented in the update, contracts deployment, regular transactions and much more will become available in the next year.
As for now, developers are finalizing roadmaps and timelines by including and excluding improvements they planned to realize since the Merge. Luckily, no postponements have been announced recently, which shows that the update will most likely go through as planned. | [

From January 2011 until December 2012, forty Family Group Conferences (FGCs) will be studied in the public mental health care (PMHC) setting in the province of Groningen, the Netherlands. Research should yield an answer to whether FGCs are valuable for clients in PMHC as a means to generate social support, to prevent coercion and to elevate the work of professionals. The present study reports on two case studies in which shame and fear of rejection are designated as main causes for clients to avoid contact with their social network, resulting in isolated and marginalised living circumstances. Shame, on the other hand, is also a powerful engine in preventing clients from relapse into marginalised circumstances for which one needs to feel ashamed again. An FGC offers a forum where clients are able to discuss their shameful feelings with their social network; it generates support and helps breaking through vicious circles of marginalisation and social isolation. Findings of these case studies confirm an assumption from a previous study that a limited or broken social network is not a contraindication, but a reason for organising FGCs.

Sorted out the power limit on the Lexus inverter today. Two words: Holy Crap!
This thing has so much torque I can barely touch the pedal and spin the tires (well, the left one at least). I'm going to have to get an M3 rear end and some better tires very promptly.
It's just finishing touches at this point! So excited. I've never had a car that could do this before.
(sorry for the vertical video. Obviously I wasn't the one recording the video). | [

A stunning collection of nuclear bomb tests. From the website:
After the Limited Test Ban Treaty between the U.S. and the Soviet Union in 1963, nuclear testing went underground. It became literally invisible - but more frequent: the United States conducted a further 723 underground tests until 1992. 100 SUNS documents the era of visible nuclear testing, the atmospheric era, with 100 photographs drawn by Michael Light from the archives at Los Alamos National Laboratory and the U.S. National Archives in Maryland. | [

Once inside the fantastical world of the Barneys New York department store in Las Vegas, I felt like I was trapped on an expensive planet. The native inhabitants were friendly and well groomed, yet there was something off about them. Maybe it was the scent of money in the air. I felt sweaty and nervous when the staff spoke to me, like they might be cyborgs. Expensive cyborgs.
If this is your first time to Makeup and Beauty Blog, welcome and thanks for visiting. For a review of one of Frederic Malle’s newest fragrances, check out Frederic Malle Geranium Pour Monsieur Is for Ladies and Gentlemen.
I made my way toward the cosmetics department. I was looking for makeup and beauty brands I’d never seen before, and my research before the trip suggested that Barneys, located in the Palazzo Hotel on the Vegas strip, wouldn’t let me down.
My first reaction was disappointment. I was seeing all the same high end stuff also carried by Neiman Marcus and Bloomingdale’s — YSL, Chantecaille, T. LeClerc. Yawn.
The street entrance to Barneys New York in Las Vegas
I’d almost given up, and then it was there, at the very heart of the store. They resembled two empty telephone booths, or perhaps teleportation chambers, standing beside a display with several scientific looking bottles and a sign that read, “Editions de Parfums Frederic Malle.” Holla!
I began at one end of the display and sniffed my way to the other. With each scent, I grew more intrigued. Raul, a Barney’s sales associate with the smoothest hands I’d ever seen on a man, noticed my eyes rolling back into my head (seriously, some of the scents were *that* good) and proceeded to fill me in on the line.
One of the perfumes, Carnal Flower
Nine famous perfumers (noses) developed their own individual perfumes for the Editions de Parfums Frederic Malle collection. These are some of the most famous noses of our time. Without limits or boundaries placed upon them by anyone, each perfumer received free reign over their creations, resulting in the 16 scents that make up the line. You won’t find watered down eau de toilettes or body splashes here; each of the scents is complex and interesting in its own way.
When you test perfumes sprayed onto paper strips at a perfume counter, the scent’s top notes grab you (the initial burst of fragrance). If your nose is hyper-sensitive like mine, you might even smell the paper.
But you could be missing the more subtle aspects of the fragrance — the middle notes (which occur after the top notes fade), and then the dry down (which is like the scent’s finale). To appreciate the fullness and complexity of the Editions de Parfums Frederic Malle scents, Raul suggested I ditch the paper strips and use one of the store’s special scent chambers to fully appreciate the line.
A little scurred of the chamber…
The two phone booth/teleportation chambers are actually scent chambers. I’m claustrophobic, but Raul assured me that I wouldn’t have to step into the chamber to get the full experience, just stick my head in.
Raul explaining how the chamber works
Raul flipped a switch to activate fans installed in the ceiling of each chamber and then sprayed a fragrance from the line into each one — En Passant (a light floral) on the left, and Noir Epices (a spicy Oriental) on the right.
I took a whiff of each and instantly fell in love with En Passant. Created by perfumer Olivia Giacobetti and described as an “impressionistic” fragrance on the Editions de Parfums Web site, En Passant combines the scent of white lilac flower with orange tree leaves, cucumber and wheat. I could detect all of the different layers and rich fullness in the scent chamber. I couldn’t help but picture fields of lilac flowers and freshly laundered cotton sheets. Heaven!
Sniffing En Passant perfume is heavenly
A few other fragrances that I smelled and liked were…
Iris Poudre by Pierre Bourdon – Tonka bean, musk, vanilla, sandal wood and vetiver.
Nose fun fact: In 1988 Pierre created one of my favorite men’s fragrances of all time, Davidoff Cool Water.
Carnal Flower by Dominique Ropion – Tuberose, coconut and musk.
Nose fun Fact: Dominique, along with perfumers Loc Dong and Carlos Benaim, created Calvin Klein Euphoria, winner of the 2006 | [

The city is huge. It reminded me of the North Carolina State Fair in many ways: the same amount of personal space and the same fried food meets body odor smells emanating from all directions. It was loud and busy, everywhere you turned. It was sprinkled with more F bombs than I had ever heard in public. There was constant activity and constant movement. Yet, there was more…
Surprising to this North Carolina beach girl, the big apple was filled with something I didn’t expect…humanity. In every nook and cranny of this overwhelming place, there were glimpses of people connecting and relating. In the middle of the large seating spaces off of Broadway were weary travelers sitting and chatting with old friends, catching up on life. Young girls giggling and talking at warp speed at 1am down the avenues. There were friends bumping into one another, needles in a haystack, on overcrowded city streets. Policemen offering directions to lost visitors. And perhaps my favorite glimpse of humanness, the old lady singing most off key to a Beatles tune in the middle of a subway. I thought she was crazy, but then at the end, I realized she was just trying to make a buck as a kind, tired soul next to me smiled ever so slightly and tossed a dollar in her bag.
I never thought a place like New York would have so many hints of people’s goodness and kindness. It gets so lost so often in the speed of life, yet here in one of the biggest cities in the world, there it was. Not as loud as the honking or the cussing at crazed drivers, but in the quiet moments scattered amongst the five boroughs. It reminded me that no matter where in the world people live, there is an underlying desire from us all to connect.
I saw New York as a microcosm of our culture. In many ways, it is the heartbeat of America. And while this yearning to know and be known stealthily peaked out from many unexpected places, there was also something else I saw in New Yorkers, in us. It hit me most on the 1am subway ride back from Serendipity, the home of the world famous frozen hot chocolate seen in the movie bearing the same name as the restaurant. There on that train was a complete cross section of life: students, elderly, young professionals trying to make it in the place where dreams are made of, blue collar workers just hoping to make ends meet. I sat there as we listened to the sounds of the old lady with a thick German accent singing Let it Be. I looked at the eyes of all the fellow subway riders that night, many heading to the farthest points of the line because that’s where life is more affordable. There was a weariness I had never seen before or perhaps, I just have never noticed. The eyes I saw were loaded and tired and dreading tomorrow when they would do it all again. Wake up. Get the kids off. Take the bus to the subway station. Hop on the subway. Walk 5 city blocks and a couple of avenues and do it all in the reverse just in time for bed. Maybe the rest of us aren’t in a metropolis like NYC, but I see it in my friends too, everyone is just plain tired. It’s too much this hustle, the rat race is completely running us down to the core. The hamster wheel has fatigued our little legs and we can’t seem to make it around anymore. So what do we do? Where do we go from here?
We’ve set our pace far too fast for far too long. Technology, smart phones, and information is supersonic. We can go, go, go well beyond what was ever intended. God’s natural rhythms: the sun rising as our beginning and setting as our day’s end, have been ignored and instead we go until our eyes can’t take any more of the glow of our screens and we pass out in response. So many of us are just empty. Nothing more to give because there is nothing left. And it doesn’t take us living in a place like New York City to get like this, everyone from stay at home moms in Wilmington, North Carolina to third shift workers in Ohio are feeling this drought of epic proportions. People are stressed and tired at levels we’ve never seen before.
Something has to give and it isn’t a move from a big city to suburbia or vice versa. It has to happen right where we are, no matter our season or life circumstance. New rhythms must be created and priorities shifted. We are doing far more at a pace exceedingly greater than our design.
There is a way to more peace and rest than we’ve ever known, a rhythm to life that ebbs and flows like we were meant to:

The Cyclones fall to the Connecticut Tigers in extra innings by the score of 4-3.
Walter Rasquin opened the game with a single to third and was able to advanced to second after a throwing error by third baseman Colby Bortles. He was later moved to third on a ground out by Dylan Snypes before being driven home for the first run of the game after Wagner Lagrange knocked a sac-fly.
Chris Viall had a solid two innings before running into trouble in the third when the righthander gave up a leadoff double to Ignacio Valdez. The score was knotted, 1-1, after Andres Sthormes singled later that inning. Viall's struggles continued into the fourth and after a walk, pickoff throwing error,a pass ball and wild pitch the Tigers took a 2-1 lead. Viall squeezed out of the inning giving up only one run and was relieved by Nicolas Debora in the fifth.
Debora tossed one inning scoreless before giving up a solo shot to Bortles in the sixth that extended the Tigers lead to 3-1.
The Cyclones offense had an answer, in the top of the seventh Franklin Correa and Guillermo Granadillo strung together consecutive hits that forced a pitching change before Walter Rasquin knocked a single off of Billy Lescher to drive in a run, 3-2.
Brooklyn shortly tied the game after that with a run in the eighth when Lagrange knocked a triple and later scored on RBI-ground out by Jose M. Medina.
The score stayed the same through regulation, but in the bottom of the tenth RHP Joe Napolitano gave up single to Sthormes that was followed with a double by Cole Peterson. Napolitano was relieved by Cannon Chadwick who gave up a single that ended the game.
Tomorrow Brooklyn will head to the Staten Island for a game with the Yankees before returning home to MCU Park to close out the season on Thursday. Noah Syndergaard will get the starting nod on Fan Appreciation Day and the first 2,000 fans in attendance will receive a Brooklyn Cyclones calendar. | [

Quinton Tarantino Drops Sad Ryan Reynolds Bombshell
Quentin Tarantino recently cast Ryan Reynolds in his latest interview pointing out the growing popularity of the streaming giants.
The famous American filmmaker has been candid about the changing cinema landscape and the death of movie stars, which he attributes to being a factor in his decision to take a break from filmmaking after his next project..
And the always outspoken director has made his stance that streaming is killing cinema, specifically alluding to American actor Ryan Reynolds.
Quentin Tarantino opens up about Ryan Reynolds
Talking to Duration60 years old Inglourious Basterds The director scoffed at how Reynolds was able to earn huge paychecks for streaming movies that “didn’t exist.”
“I mean, and I don’t pick anyone, but obviously for Netflix, Ryan Reynolds made $50 million for this movie and $50 million for that movie and $50 million for that movie. next for them. I don’t know what those movies are. I have never seen them.” Tarantino said.
“I never spoke to Ryan Reynolds’ agent, but his agent said, ‘Well, it’s worth $50 million.’
“Well, it’s good for him that he makes so much money. But those movies don’t exist in the ideology. It’s almost like they don’t even exist.”
Reynolds, 46, has appeared in a number of Netflix original series in recent years, including red notice (2021) and Project Adam (2022), although Tarantino’s understanding of his salary may be a bit high.
It is reported that he has made a huge amount of 30 million dollars for red noticealong with A-list co-stars Gal Gadot and Dwayne Johnson, and about $23 million for Project Adam. | [

As we enter the fall months and begin looking forward to the Holiday season, we should not overlook October 1, 2021, the start of Breast Cancer Awareness Month. The purpose of Breast Cancer Awareness Month has always been to educate everyone about the signs and symptoms of breast cancer and the benefits of early detection. In addition to raising awareness, various events are held including walks/runs, sporting events, concerts, office dress down days, and so much more, to help raise money for breast cancer research and other related causes.
Every year since 1985, individuals throughout our nation have marked Breast Cancer Awareness Month in some way. The event originated through a partnership between the American Cancer Society and the pharmaceutical division of Imperial Chemical Industries. Shortly thereafter, Betty Ford, a breast cancer survivor and the First Lady to former President Gerald Ford, advanced the initiative by kicking off a week-long event bringing favorable press coverage and positive recognition to the cause.
So, what’s with all the pink, you ask? The first nationwide campaign for breast cancer awareness was held in 1990 during the “Race for the Cure.” Susan G. Komen, the founder of Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation, was in attendance, handing out bright pink visors to breast cancer survivors. The following year, the Foundation distributed pink ribbons to every participant in the New York City Race for a Cure. The pink ribbon gained more widespread fame in early 1992 thanks to Estée Lauder cosmetics, when pink ribbons were displayed in stores and given to customers with an accompanied card describing a proper breast self-exam.
Fast forward to 2021, and what was once such a sparse and unheard of diagnosis, has now become the second most common cancer in women in the United States, according to the Center for Disease Control (CDC). Breast cancer is also the second leading cause of cancer death in women. According to the American Cancer Society, incidence rates have increased by 0.5% per year. Since 2007, breast cancer death rates have been steady in women younger than 50, but have continued to decrease in older women. From 2013 to 2018, the death rate dropped by 1% per year. The decreases are believed to be the result of early detection through screening, increased awareness, and more effective treatments.
Currently, there are more than 3.8 million breast cancer survivors in the United States. Over the past 36 years, the events related to Breast Cancer Awareness Month have largely impacted those suffering from breast cancer, evidenced by the decrease in mortality rates. It is imperative that individuals, corporations, and governmental entities participate in the initiative to heighten awareness, advance medical treatment initiatives, and continue the decrease in death rates. | [

Great place to experience Vancouver and the area of Kitsilano. Right outside my front door is Kits beach and a bunch of great restaurants and pubs. My place is also a 15 minute walk from downtown or 5 minutes by Transit, so it's perfectly located to give you a chance to see everything our city has to offer.
My names Brennan, Im a 37 year old male and have had other guests stay with me in the past. I have enjoyed it and thought to give Air bnb a try.
Cancel up to 5 days before your trip and get a full refund. Cancel within 5 days of your trip and the first night is non-refundable, but 50% of the cost for the remaining nights will be refunded. | [

Atmospheric rivers (ARs) are narrow regions responsible for the majority of the poleward water vapor transport across the midlatitudes. They are characterized by high water vapor content and strong low level winds, and form a part of the broader warm conveyor belt of extratropical cyclones. Although the meridional water vapor transport within ARs is critical for water resources, ARs can also cause disastrous floods especially when encountering mountainous terrain. They were labeled as atmospheric rivers in the 1990s, and have since become a well-studied feature of the midlatitude climate. We briefly review the conceptual model, the methods used to identify them, their main climatological characteristics, their impacts, the predictive ability of numerical weather prediction models, their relationship with large-scale ocean-atmosphere dynamics, possible changes under future climates, and some future challenges. | [

When inserting cochlear implants, the main challenge facing otorhinolaryngologists (ORL) is to perform a nontraumatic insertion of the electrode array since it is vital to preserve the functional integrity of the undamaged parts of the cochlea. Electrode arrays must therefore be inserted into the cochlear duct, which is in the form of a spiral having very small radii of curvature (down to ~ 1.5 mm). The less damage caused by the procedure, the speedier the recovery, which greatly facilitates the rehabilitation phase following the operation.
To overcome this problem, we developed a noncontact fiber optic distance sensor based on frequency-domain low-coherence interferometry. This device instantly measures the distance from the end of the probe to the wall of the duct with a resolution of 30 µm over a 1 mm range. By using a special fiber featuring very low bending losses developed by INO, we are able to operate the probe even when coiled to a radius as small as 1.2 mm. The probe has very small dimensions (diameter = 140 µm), making it compatible with biomedical and industrial uses requiring a good degree of miniaturization | [

This is critical to understand how your current makeup is impacting your skin. When you are suffering one or more of the following adverse effects, it is time to take action.
Once you apply makeup frequently and leave it on your skin for an extended time, your skin pores may become blocked. Therefore, before you look for the best hormone replacement therapy, let’s know the tips before starting makeup.
Get the Right Product
Each skin type is distinct. As a result, you should not utilize a product simply because someone else is. Learn about your skin type and choose suitable items for it, and do not create an adverse response.
Carefully check the label to see if you are allergic to any components. When you’re unsure, run a patch test with a testing product.
Never underestimate the value of a moisturizer, regardless of your skin type. These with oily skin may believe that moisturizing will make their skin oilier. Yet, this is not true.
This moisturizing will assist you in maintaining your skin’s protective barrier. It can help you avoid skin problems, including dryness, redness, and flaky skin. But if the problems link with hormonal imbalance then you have to take the hormone imbalance treatment.
Sun damage prematurely ages your skin. Hence, it is critical to use sunscreen before applying any makeup. When you’re not comfortable using sunscreen, utilize a sun-protective moisturizer and foundation.
Tips for Getting After Makeup
After you’ve Done Your Makeup, Clean Your Brushes
When you’re finished with your makeup, don’t forget to clean your brushes and sponge. These should wash at least once a week. This is critical because dangerous microorganisms from dead skin cells and sweat flourish on makeup brushes. Bacteria may kill by thoroughly cleaning your brushes.
Removing Makeup before Going to Bed
Before going to bed, you must remove your makeup. Firstly, using soft cotton balls, remove your makeup with a makeup remover. Secondly, using a light face cleanser, wash your face.
Never, Ever Share Your Makeup.
Bacteria might spread when you share your makeup with others. Makeup should not share.
Consequences of Using Makeup Regularly
If you apply makeup frequently and leave it on your skin for an extended time, your skin pores may become blocked. It prevents your skin from breathing, making it more prone to acne, pimples, and other face skin disorders. You may also experience pimples around your eyes.
Among the essential things you can do to keep your skin healthy is preventing sun damage. Hence, you expose your skin to UV damage when you fail to apply sunscreen before putting on makeup.
Keeping makeup on for an extended amount of time, along with UV exposure, can result in premature aging indications such as wrinkles, fine lines, and age spots. In addition, if you don’t remove your makeup before going to bed, it might go into your pores, break down the elastin, and develop wrinkles.
Makeup that does not fit your skin type might cause it to become drier or oilier. When people with dry skin apply cosmetics that have not designed for their skin type, they may feel excessive dryness. Likewise, persons with oily skin may produce more oil than normal due to utilizing improper products. | [

purity, what ingredients are you not able to find? my recipe is only contains chicken pieces, organs, and some human suppliments, none of the ingredients are specific to raw feeding.
but Kai Bengals, i have to disagree with you on one point... all of my 6 carnivores, dogs and cats (esp the cats, picky little boogers), find cooked meat to be MORE palatable... i just dont give it to them cooked because i think raw is better for them. but if you offered my dogs a cooked chicken vs. a raw chicken they would take the cooked every time. then they would come back and eat the raw for desert. | [

What is the pinfire system? And why was it invented?
What is the pinfire system?
The pinfire system was a type of cartridge and firing mechanism for firearms that was invented by a French gunsmith named Casimir Lefaucheux in the early 19th century. The main feature of the system was the use of a small pin that protruded from the side of the cartridge and was struck by the gun’s hammer to ignite the gunpowder and fire the bullet. This was a significant advancement over earlier firearms, which used loose gunpowder and a separate ignition device such as a flintlock or percussion cap.
Lefaucheux was a well-known gunsmith and inventor who was credited with several innovations in firearms technology, and the pinfire system was one of his most notable contributions. He patented the system in France in 1835, and it was subsequently adopted by gun manufacturers in other countries.
What made the pinfire system a significant advancement over flintlock or percussion guns?
Flintlock and percussion guns were both commonly used firearms in the 18th and early 19th centuries, but they both had significant drawbacks and safety concerns. Flintlock guns, for example, used a piece of flint that was struck against a piece of steel, known as a frizzen, to create a shower of sparks that would ignite the gunpowder and fire the bullet. However, this process was unreliable and could easily be disrupted by moisture or other factors, making flintlock guns prone to misfires.
Percussion guns, on the other hand, used a small cap containing a chemical primer that would be struck by the gun’s hammer to ignite the gunpowder. While this made them more reliable than flintlock guns, they were still prone to accidental discharges if the hammer was struck or bumped in any way. In addition, the caps were often made of fragile materials that could break or malfunction, making them a potential hazard to the user.
The pinfire system developed by Casimir Lefaucheux addressed many of these safety concerns by using a self-contained cartridge with a built-in ignition mechanism. This made the firearm more reliable and less prone to accidental discharges.
Were there any safety issue with loading the guns?
There was significant concern about the possibility of loading a double-charge in flintlock and percussion guns. A double-charge refers to the practice of loading two or more times the normal amount of gunpowder into a firearm, which can cause the gun to explode when it is fired. This was a common problem with flintlock and percussion guns, which used loose gunpowder and loaded by the user. In many cases, users would accidentally or intentionally load too much gunpowder, resulting in a dangerous and potentially lethal situation.
The pinfire system developed by Casimir Lefaucheux addressed this issue by using a self-contained cartridge with a fixed amount of gunpowder. This made it impossible for the user to accidentally or intentionally load too much gunpowder, and it eliminated the need to measure and pour gunpowder into the firearm, making the pinfire system a safer and more reliable option.
In addition to preventing the possibility of a double-charge, the pinfire system had several other safety benefits over earlier firearms. One of the main benefits was that the cartridge was self-contained, with the bullet, gunpowder, and ignition mechanism all contained in a single unit. This made the firearm much easier and safer to load, as the user simply had to insert the cartridge into the chamber and close the breech. This eliminated the need to handle loose gunpowder and other dangerous materials, reducing the risk of accidental discharge or explosion.
In short, the pinfire system was a significant advancement in firearms technology, offering improved reliability and safety over earlier guns.
What happened to the pinfire system?
The pinfire system invented by Casimir Lefaucheux was a significant advancement in firearms technology, but it was eventually replaced by other cartridge systems that offered even greater improvements in reliability and safety.
One of the systems that replaced the pinfire was the rimfire cartridge, which was invented in the mid-19th century. Rimfire cartridges used a different ignition mechanism that involved a small rim of primer around the base of the cartridge that was struck by the gun’s hammer to ignite the gunpowder. This made the cartridge even more reliable and easier to use than the pinfire system.
Another cartridge system that replaced the pinfire was the centerfire cartridge, which gained prominence in the late 19th century. Centerfire cartridges used a primer that was located in the center of the cartridge and was struck by the gun’s firing pin to ignite the gunpowder. This made the cartridge even more reliable and easier to use than rimfire cartridges, and it allowed for the use of higher | [

Hingerose Limited is the UK and Ireland partner for the Dosatron range of water powered injectors for accurate dosing of liquid additives proportionately into water without the need for electric power.
Established in 1979, we have over 40 years' experience of the Dosatron in a diverse range of applications related to agricultural, horticultural, commercial and industrial market sectors.
Installed in the water supply line, the Dosatron is driven by water flow and the motor responds directly to the volume of water passing through it. At higher water flows, the motor will move more quickly and at lower flows it will move more slowly. This makes the dosing pump volumetric. The motor drives the dosing piston such that additive is continuously injected at the set dose rate. The Dosatron works with water flow to provide accurate proportional dosing. | [

There are many optical module manufacturers, far more than most people can imagine. 80% of them are very small, and some of them are even small workshops. Therefore, the quality of optical modules circulating on the market varies. In the purchase of optical transceiver modules, especially third-party optical modules, be sure to determine the compatibility of optical modules. Otherwise, you will encounter a variety of problems, such as the more common port not UP, link oscillation, a large number of CRC error packets or packet loss, optical module burn, optical module running down, or network card temperature rises, the optical module began to lose packets, a module plugged into the vicinity of a number of other ports are down, one end is UP the other end is down, and so on.
What are the differences between optical transceiver modules from different manufacturers?
The standard for optical modules is very uniform, so theoretically there should be little difference between module manufacturers. However, the reality is that there are a variety of compatibility issues between different modules and different devices. Even the same manufacturer with the same module model in the same device will have differences. Simply put, it is the difference between the quality of engineering and the quality of supply.
- PCB quality: the quality of the selected capacitor resistor, the length and width of the gold finger, the quality of the solder, and even the quality of the glue all affect the quality of the product. For example, there is jitter in the voltage and current, and problems arise when the temperature rises.
- Differences in coupling processes:such as COB coupling mode and SMD coupling mode. Each manufacturer’s choice is different, and even the same manufacturer’s choice of different products is different. They will lead to differences in cost, heat dissipation, and high-temperature resistance.
- Differences in production and test equipment: the number of equipment, the richness of the variety, the degree of automation, the richness of third-party equipment such as switches/server NICs, will lead to differences in yield and compatibility.
What tests have FiberMall optical transceiver modules passed?
- Average Output Optical Power Detection
The average output optical power is an important parameter of an optical module, which directly affects the communication quality. The FiberMall optical module uses an optical power meter to measure the optical power output of the optical transceiver, so as to test the average optical power output.
Average Output Optical Power Test Configuration
- Extinction Ratio and Optical Modulation Amplitude (OMA) Test
The extinction ratio is one of the parameters used to measure the quality of optical transceiver modules. It can be detected whether the laser works in the best bias point and the best modulation efficiency range by testing. In addition, the optical modulation amplitude (OMA) is also a measure of the power difference between the laser on and off. The two tests of FiberMall optical modules were tested by mainstream optical oscilloscopes, and both passed the tests.
Extinction Ratio Test Configuration
- Bit Error Rate and Receiving Sensitivity Test
Bit error rate (BER) is one of the parameters to measure the ability of an optical module to transmit symbols correctly. The bit error rate test of FiberMall optical module receives the optical signal with a pseudo-random signal output from the tested optical module through the standard receiving tube test unit. At the same time, the standard receiving tube test unit is used for demodulation and comparison to complete the bit error rate test.
Receiving sensitivity is one of the key parameters to evaluate the performance of optical transceiver devices. The receiving sensitivity of FiberMall optical module is tested by using a programmable optical attenuator to attenuate the signal power so that the receiving end of the optical transceiver module receives signals with different power. Finally, the receiving sensitivity test is completed by comparing the bit error rate under different optical power with the bit error meter.
Receiving Sensitivity Test Configuration
- Eye Diagram Testing
Eye diagram testing and adjustment is an important stage to ensure that the optical module gets the best signal. The digital signal quality of the optical transceiver can be seen from the eye diagram test results. The performance of the optical module is judged by carefully observing the eye height, eye width, jitter, and duty cycle of the eye diagram. The larger the eye indicates the smaller the inter-code crosstalk, the better the performance of the optical transceiver. FiberMall optical module eye diagram test results are very good, as shown in the figure below.
- Wavelength Test
Since the optical transceiver modules used on both ends of the device must emit the same wavelength to establish communication. Therefore, before shipment, FiberMall optical module wavelengths are tested to ensure that they are within the deviation range. In addition, FiberMall optical transceiver modules were subjected to very low-temperature tests, high and low-temperature cycle test,s and constant humidity and heat test, all of which worked properly.
- Aging Test

Each type of club requires a unique approach for your setup and swing. Unfortunately many recreational golfers attempt to use the same swing for every club and they pay the price. Actually the sweep of your club across the ground has the same type of arc but your point of impact has a huge affect on your success with each type of club.
You can easily adjust your draw or fade with any club by changing your face direction, your swing path and your trailing foot back or forward. A side hill lie (up or down) also has a huge impact on the success of your shot. Before you can master your swing with any club you need to see the resulting impact of a properly lined-up shot verses a poorly lined-up shot. This blog is primarily concerned with avoiding mishits with your driver, your fairway woods/hybrids and your irons.
Setup to LAUNCH your Drives
Your driver has a limited angle on its face. It’s really designed so that you can hit up on your ball and LAUNCH it in an upward angle. Of course that’s why you tee your ball up and line up your ball with the heel of your LEADING foot. That’s also why you need to impact your ball as your club arcs upward on an inside to outside path (AFTER it passes the low point of your swing arc).
To help you create longer drives you should setup with your shoulder line tilting slightly down on your trailing side and 55% of your weight on your trailing foot. Give yourself a count of 1, 2 to create time for a full backswing rotation (and count 3 for you downswing). Keep your leading ear behind the ball through-out your swing. Release up your target line as you thrust forward to LAUNCH YOUR BALL UPWARD.
Setup to POWER your Fairway Woods and Hybrids
Setup with your ball closer to the heel of your leading foot in addition to your weight evenly distributed. Your goal is to impact the ball near or just after the low point of the arc of your swing as you transfer your weight up your target line. Use the loft of your club to create the angle of rise on your ball.
Setup to SCOOP your Irons
Setup with 55% of your weight on your leading foot and your ball lined up progressively closer to the center of your stance for your wedges. Let your weight continue to press forward during your transition to ensure that you impact your ball on your downswing before you SCOOP any divot.
Focus on LAUNCH, POWER or SCOOP for each type of club to ensure that you create the right impact and shot. Finish your full swing to a balanced finish to ensure that you don’t leave the face of your club open at the point of impact. Practice with your GOLFSTR+ to keep your leading arm straight through impact. Buy one today at www.GOLFSTR.com

low ground cover on poorly drained clay
For my front yard, I need to establish a no-mow ground cover that grows no higher than 12". That is the guideline given to me by my town's weed enforcement officer. Yes, we have one! As long as it is a monoculture and not listed as a weed I can grow pretty much anything I want to a height of 12" in my front and side yards. Unofficially. Officially the weed police = God.
Currently there is no lawn. Just some weeds that have an uncanny resemblance to skunk cabbage, a bit of some kind of grass, a few remnants of some white clover I planted many years ago, and mostly mud. As soon as it stops raining here I plan to nuke everything with some newly generic glyphosate.
Every year I scrape the topsoil from my front yard to tame the weeds. What's left isn't very fertile. Even mint has trouble growing. I planted some chocolate mint last year and it hasn't grown at all. I have a clump of spearmint that grows but doesn't spread. The fact that a skunk cabbage-ish plant is my dominant weed and the fact that even a brief rain shower forms puddles which take more than 24 hours to be absorbed leads me to conclude that I have poor drainage. This seems to rule out all but a small fraction of ground cover options, leaving mostly semi-aquatics and an elite group of seriously tough customers who don't care what they grow in.
With poor drainage the topic of soil amendments or raised beds is sometimes brought up. I think either would be rather expensive. The soil is sufficiently hard that I can jump up and down on a sharp shovel and penetrate no more than a a few inches even when the ground is wet and that's if I'm lucky about where I put the shovel. I think amending it would be...challenging. The raised bed thing might be possible in the sense that I could maybe buy a truckload of loam and spread it around on top of the hard pack. I also still have the piles of topsoil that have accumulated. Unless I can manage to add a lot of soil I don't think it will be game changing and at the moment I'm not prepared to spend the money.
So assuming the conditions of hard, rocky, clay with poor drainage what are my options for a In terms of versatility, aggressiveness, attractiveness, and height Creeping Jenny seems hard to beat. One problem is the lack of seed. That makes it expensive to establish in any reasonable amount of time. I just ordered around 30 plugs of the 'aureus/goldilocks' chartreuse cultivar. As soon as the plugs grow out I'm hoping to help them to spread even further by clipping and rooting some cuttings. Nevertheless I am not expecting them to spread fast enough to stop the weeds this season. Or even the next. And, since I know next to nothing about gardening or botany, that's where things get complicated.
I'm having trouble coming up with a strategy. My goal is to establish a weed-choking, attractive ground cover ASAP. Creeping Jenny would be my first choice, but I'm not sure I am willing to wait 2-3 more seasons for the Lysimachia to form a dense, weed-choking carpet. I'm trying to figure out if there is some way to plant something that will fill in the gaps left after the Lysimachia plantings.
Presumably I should be thinking in terms of an annual or just something less hardy than zone 6. Maybe 8+ to be safe. And something that doesn't spread or spreads very little and can grow from quickly germinating seed. I guess my first question would be whether this idea of a temporary filler plant to help battle the weeds makes any sense. I don't know exactly how fast the Lysimachia will creep. I certainly wouldn't want to obstruct its path with a competing plant. Unless the filler plant is a very fast grower, it might not even out-compete the weeds anyway. It may even make weeding more difficult by mixing with the weeds so that I cannot spray glyphosate without also hitting the filler plant foliage.
On the other hand I really want to get some ground cover down there. Despite my desire for a Creeping Jenny monoculture in the front yard, it is difficult to resist throwing something in the gaps. But the filler plant idea is starting to seem like more and more of a bad one. Perhaps it would be better to put some of the money I'd save by not buying any more plants toward a pre-emergent herbicide. Since I'm not propogating the Lysimachia by seed, presumably a pre-emergent wouldn't hurt. It would just have to no longer be active in the fall when I sow the Rush seeds for the spring.
That's another complication | [

A Brief History
Chemical peels offer an excellent option for significantly reducing wrinkling and signs of aging in the face, neck, and décolletage areas. The concept has been around since at least the 1950’s and probably earlier than that. Specialized private formulas were developed by non-medical practitioners that were purported to decrease wrinkles. When these were studied in the early 1960’s the mechanism of action and was discovered and a whole new method of skin treatment was born.
Over the years different compounds were tried until today there is a fixed set of safe and reliable treatments.
How They Work
All chemical peels work by removing some of the outer layers of skin. The depth of the peel is determined by the chemical agent used and the concentration. The deeper layers of the skin respond by regenerating new skin and by increasing the amount of collagen. The result is skin that looks smoother and more youthful.
Alpha Hydroxy Acid Peels
Alpha hydroxy acids are naturally occurring acids and based on chemicals found in apples, milk, sugar cane, or tomatoes In mild concentrations (10% or less) they are sold over the counter. In higher concentrations (20% – 30%) they are usually applied by an aesthetician. AHA’s do a fine job of improving the skin’s texture and can also improve fine wrinkles but they do not treat significant wrinkles. In the lower concentrations they can be used as part of your daily skin care routine. Higher concentrations require periodic re-treatment.
Jessner’s solution uses a mixture of an alpha hyrdoxy acid (lactic acid), a beta hydroxy acid (salicylic acid) and resorcinol mixed with 95% ethanol. Quite the chemistry lesson here. This peel works at the epidermal level and so will also improve the skin texture and minimize small wrinkles. It can also be used as a pre-treatment for a TCA peel. Recovery is rapid.
Trichloroacetic acid, or TCA, was first discovered by a French chemist, Jean-Baptist Dumas in 1839. It is prepared by mixing vinegar (acetic acid) and chlorine. It was widely used in biochemistry but it wasn’t until Dr. Zein Obagi, a dermatologist, began using it that it became the most popular peeling agent. It works by dissolving the keratin in skin and altering the surface proteins.
It’s popularity derives from the fact that it is predictable, safe, and very effective. The depth of the peel can be controlled by adjusting the concentration. A 20% solution of TCA works well as an epidermal peel. Treatment can be done in the office with mild analgesics. The erythema (redness) usually resolves quickly, often in less than a week. Multiple treatments may be necessary.
At higher concentrations – 35% to 50% – a deeper penetration occurs. At this concentration the TCA penetrates to the superficial layer of the dermis. This is considered a medium depth peel and is effective for most facial wrinkles. Anesthesia is often recommended at these concentrations. Concentrations more than 50% are not often used because of the risk of scarring.
Phenol / Croton Oil
Phenol has been around a long time. It was used by Joseph Lister, one of the pioneers of antiseptic surgery. Its method of action is similar to TCA but when it was first used it seemed to always work at the same depth. With the addition of Croton oil it was possible to control the depth of the peel based on the concentration of the oil.
Phenol peels are typically used to treat deep wrinkles, scars, and damaged skin. The procedure requires anesthesia and takes almost two weeks before the skin is healed. It is very effective but is not recommended for dark skinned individuals since pigmentation changes can often occur. | [

Social Security Disability and Supplemental Security Income: How Are They Different?By Katherine L on October 11, 2018 | In Social Security Disability
The SSDI program provides income to disabled workers who have worked long enough to qualify and who have paid Social Security taxes. SSI benefits are need-based; to be eligible, individuals with disabilities must demonstrate that they have low income and very limited resources.
Medical eligibility for both programs is the same. In general, you must have a medical condition that prevents you from working and that will last for at least one year – or is terminal.
There are, however, essential differences between SSDI and SSI in terms of eligibility and payment amounts:
Social Security Disability
- To be eligible, an applicant must have earned a minimum number of work credits and paid FICA – Social Security – taxes.
- Payment amounts are based on the worker’s average lifetime earnings.
- Certain qualified family members may also be eligible for payments based on the worker’s benefit.
SSDI payments are funded by payroll taxes and are paid from the Social Security Trust Fund.
Supplemental Security Income
- This program is need-based so only those with low income and limited resources will qualify.
- Resources to be considered include but are not limited to bank accounts, vehicles, and personal property.
- A disabled individual can qualify for SSI even if they have not worked long enough to be eligible for SSDI.
- Benefit amounts are the same for all qualified applicants unless they are working – $750 per month for an individual and $1,125 for a couple (2018 values)
- There are no SSI payments available for family members.
SSI benefits are paid from general tax revenues.
Note that, based on individual circumstances, some beneficiaries may qualify for both SSDI and SSI payments.
California is one of the states that offers a supplement to SSI payments in the State Supplemental Payment.
You can read more about SSI benefits in this SSA publication.

French niche line Parfums MDCI has launched Fêtes Persanes, a new fragrance.
“Fêtes Persanes”, which translates as “Persian Feasts”, is drawn, like “Les Indes Galantes”, from an opera by 18th century French composer Jean-Philippe Rameau.
Also known as “Les Fleurs”, “Fêtes Persanes” is the third entrée in the “Les Indes Galantes” ballet héroïque which takes us to the garden of Ali, a confidant of the Persian Prince Tacmas, where a magnificent flower festival is to be held that night...
Fêtes Persanes was developed by perfumer Cécile Zarokian. The notes include bergamot, black pepper, elemi, cardamom, cinnamon, clove, white musk, lignum vitae, cedar, patchouli and vanilla.
Parfums MDCI Fêtes Persanes can be found now at First in Fragrance in Germany, in 75 ml Eau de Parfum for €225. | [

WHEN the closing operations against Richmond were being
arranged, President Lincoln went down to General Grant's head-quarters at
City Point. He remained there till Lee's surrender. He visited Richmond on
the day it was taken, and walked through the streets with his little boy in
his hand. The freed slaves crowded to welcome their deliverer. They
expressed iii a thousand grotesque ways their gratitude to the good "Father
Abraham." There had been dark hints for some time that there were those
among the Confederates who would avenge their defeat by the murder of the
President. Mr. Lincoln was urged to be on his guard, and his friends were
unwilling that he should visit Richmond. He himself cared little, now that
the national cause had triumphed.
He returned unharmed to
Washington on the evening of Lee's A surrender. The next few days were
perhaps the brightest in his whole life. He had guided the nation through
the heaviest trial which had ever assailed it. On every side were joy and
gladness. Flags waved, bells rang, guns were fired, houses were lighted up;
the thanks of innumerable grateful hearts went up to God for this great
deliverance. No heart in all the country was more joyful and more thankful
than Mr. Lincoln's. He occupied himself with plans for healing the wounds of
his bleeding country, and bringing back the revolted States to a contented
occupation of their appointed places in the Union. No thought of severity
was in his mind. Now that armed resistance to the Government was crushed,
the gentlest measures which would give security in the future were the
measures most agreeable to the good President.
On the 14th
he held a meeting of his Cabinet, at which General Grant was present. The
quiet cheerfulness and hopefulness of the President imparted to the
proceedings of the council a tone Ion, remembered by those who were present.
After the meeting he drove out with Mrs. Lincoln, to whom he talked of the
good days in store. They had had a hard time, he said, since they came to
Washington; but now, by God's blessing, they might hope for quieter and
In the evening he drove, with Mrs. Lincoln
and two or three friends, to a theatre where he knew the people expected his
coming. As the play went on the audience were startled by a pistol-shot in
the President's box. A man brandishing a dagger was seen to leap from the
box on to the stage, and with a wild cry—"The South is avenged!
"—disappeared behind the scenes. The President sat motionless, his head sunk
down upon his breast. He was evidently unconscious. When the surgeon came,
it was found that a bullet had pierced the brain, inflicting a deadly wound.
He was carried to a house close by. His family and the great officers of
State, by whom he was dearly loved, sat around the bed of the dying
President. He lingered till morning, breathing heavily, but in entire
unconsciousness, and then he passed away.
At the same hour
the President was murdered a ruffian broke into the sick-room of Mr. Seward,
who was suffering from a recent accident, and stabbed him almost to death as
he lay in bed. His bloody work was happily interrupted, and Mr. Seward
The assassin of Mr. Lincoln was an actor called
Booth, a fanatical adherent of the fallen Confederacy. his leg was broken in
the leap on to the stage, but he was able to reach a horse which stood ready
at the theatre door. He rode through the city, crossed the Potomac by a
bridge, in the face of the sentinels posted there, and passed safely beyond
present pursuit. A week later he was found hid in a barn, and well armed. He
refused to surrender, and was preparing to fire, when a soldier ended his
miserable existence by a bullet.
The grief of the American
people for their murdered President was beyond example deep and bitter.
Perhaps for no man were there ever shed so profusely the tears of sorrow.
Not in America alone, but in England too—where President Lincoln was at
length understood and honoured—his loss was deeply mourned. It was resolved
that he should be buried beside his old home in Illinois. The embalmed
remains were to be conveyed to their distant resting-place by a route which
would give to the people of the chief Northern cities a last opportunity to
look upon the features of the man they loved so well. The sad procession
moved on its long journey of nearly two thousand miles, traversing the
States of Maryland | [

College is too expensive for students to waste money paying incompetent professors who teach the long discredited belief that carbon dioxide has a magical power to affect the temperature of the air. I recognize that some of the professors who push Enron’s global warming scam are crooked rather than incompetent. The science version of prostitutes will say science is whatever their employers want it to be.
The claim that slight changes in the amount of atmospheric CO2 could affect air temperature is based on a primitive early 19th Century belief that infrared radiation was “heat” and the atmosphere was heated by trapping it.. Physicists at the time had only a limited understanding of radiation, heat or atoms. For example, Jean Baptiste Joseph Fourier claimed in what is called the “greenhouse gas theory” that the earth was heated in part by the IR received from distant stars. Physicists would not learn until late in the century that heat is the kinetic energy of atoms and atoms are not the smallest particles of matter.
Radiation doesn’t heat the gas molecules in the atmosphere, but may heat dust and soot particles in the atmosphere. If IR heated the atmosphere then the high energy IR from the sun would heat the atmosphere much more than the low energy IR emitted by the ground. Physicist R. W Wood disproved Fourier’s theory in 1909. He used small greenhouses that were identical except that one reflected IR and the other was transparent to IR. There was no significant temperature difference. In the initial run of the experiment the greenhouse that was transparent to IR heated faster than the one that reflected IR because the reflective greenhouse reflected the high energy solar IR back into space. If CO2 reflects IR then increasing the amount of atmospheric CO2 should result in more solar IR being reflected back into space and thus reduced solar heating.
Warmer have yet to provide any proof that the process they talk about exists. Their pathetic attempt to prove their theory involves creating a mathematically worthless number they call “the global average temperature”.
The so-called global average temperature “is thermodynamically as well as mathematically an impossibility, says Bjarne Andresen, a professor at The Niels Bohr Institute, University of Copenhagen, who has analyzed this topic in collaboration with professors Christopher Essex from University of Western Ontario and Ross McKitrick from University of Guelph, Canada.”
“It is impossible to talk about a single temperature for something as complicated as the climate of Earth”, Bjarne Andresen says, an expert of thermodynamics. “A temperature can be defined only for a homogeneous system. Furthermore, the climate is not governed by a single temperature. Rather, differences of temperatures drive the processes and create the storms, sea currents, thunder, etc. which make up the climate”.
“While it is possible to treat temperature statistically locally, it is meaningless to talk about a a global temperature for Earth. The Globe consists of a huge number of components which one cannot just add up and average.”
Even if “the global average temperature” had mathematical value, an increase couldn’t prove an increase in atmospheric CO2 was responsible. Continued increases in the heat generated by human activity should be causing an increase in air temperature. The global warming alarmists don’t claim that an increase in the teracalories of heat humans collectively introduce into the air each day can cause dangerous global warming.. Instead they claim that unverified process that involves a gas that comprises only 0.04% of the atmosphere is the threat. These people shouldn’t be teaching college. They should be reading fairy tales in a day care center.
A normal person entering a room that is too hot and has a space heater operating at the highest setting and a small it birthday candle would turn off the space heater. The person would treat the candle as a decorative feature that didn’t add any significant amount of heat. The alarmist would blow out the CO2 producng candle and ignore the heater. | [

The music industry is changing. CD sales and digital downloads are being replaced by streaming music. Without steady sales, it’s more difficult than ever to make a living as a musician.

The Celtfather Story Is Your Story!
Marc Gunn sings fun songs for Celtic Geeks like you.
You probably attend Renaissance festivals and science fiction conventions. You may own a cat or a dragon. You love Celtic music from traditional Irish tunes to Celtic rock. You can't wait to hear the funny songs of your favorite singer. You may even love “Weird Al” or other comedy musicians.
Needless to say, Marc Gunn is not your typical Celtic musician. For starters, he plays an autoharp, and still wins Celtic music awards. He gives you a high-energy show that makes you want to sing with an Irish brogue and dance a jig. Both are highly encouraged. But it's the songs that make a difference. It's Celtic, and yet it's nerd music inspired by fandom (filk)!
If you're a Celt or love Celtic music, and you also are a geek, then you will love being a part of the Gunn Runners community. Welcome!
If you like kilts, Celtic music, and you also are a geek, the welcome to the Gunn Runners community! Marc Gunn fuses his love of fandom with his Celtic heritage. Sing along to songs about Firefly, hobbits, dragons, cats, Star Wars, Star Trek and of course traditional Irish and Scottish songs.

The math worksheet is not only for the young children in kindergarten and early primary school; they are also used for tutoring high school and university students to keep the students math skills sharp. The sites that offer these worksheets have helped a lot and this resource is now a common thing to use for all kinds and levels of educators.
Each grade act as a step in the whole staircase to the mathematics high-rise building. Performing poor in math in any grade is like breaking some steps in the whole staircase. As broken steps make the whole staircase risky or scary to use in the future, incomplete math competencies in lower grades make math very hard in the high school.
The formats for the worksheets differ according to the level and content of the worksheets. For the young kids it is preferable to have the worksheet in large print, while the older students commonly use the small print ones that are simple and uncluttered.

More than 500 families rent homes and apartments from Beyond Housing. Meeting their need for adequate, affordable housing represents the tip of the iceberg in terms of the holistic services we provide—our model also covers employment, education, health, transportation, and personal finance.
But at the end of the day, all those other services would lose impact if people came home from school or work to find that their heat or air conditioning was out or that their electric and gas bills kept breaking the budget.
As a landlord, we embrace our responsibility to provide a safe, efficient physical environment for the residents in our rental units. Our top-notch maintenance team works directly with a network of community partners for repairs and upgrades across our portfolio of homes.
When the pandemic forced Ameren Missouri to stop the usual residential energy efficiency programs that often include in-home assessments, they partnered with Beyond Housing to come up with an impactful solution that reduces the energy burden on customers who struggle with financial security. “Ameren Missouri is really excited to work with Beyond Housing because they’ve been doing terrific work in North St. Louis County,” said Ameren Missouri CEO Marty Lyons. “We had a great opportunity to help families with energy audits, energy efficiency devices, and many other ways.”
Ameren Missouri donated more than $1.1 million of in-kind energy-efficient equipment repairs and upgrades, the largest in-kind donation Beyond Housing has ever received. “As an owner of rental properties, Beyond Housing would not have been able to achieve this scope of capital improvements in its housing stock without this partnership,” said Chris Krehmeyer, President and CEO of Beyond Housing.
For Raven Taylor, who lives in a rental home in North St. Louis County, this program has been a blessing. Ameren’s contractors performed services including an energy audit, replaced her thermostat with a “smart thermostat” system she can operate and optimize from her phone, and replaced all the lightbulbs.
“My favorite thing they did would be the lightbulbs, the energy-efficient lightbulbs,” Taylor said. “I honestly don’t think I’ve changed a lightbulb yet.” And her combined monthly electricity and air conditioning bills have remained below $200 each month since the upgrades. Read more about her experience with the program in this news story from the St. Louis American.
Partnering with Ameren Missouri and other companies
In 2020, Beyond Housing connected with Ameren Missouri’s CommunitySavers® Programs, in partnership with Spire Inc., for more than $600,000 in upgrades to heating and air conditioning systems. Environmental consulting company Resource Innovations, a diverse contractor, implemented the program. This work resulted in annual energy savings of 654,079 kilowatt hours.
The partners have built on that success this year, adding 166,857 kilowatt hours of savings with upgrades to 216 homes. Through August, Ameren Missouri’s donation of in-kind materials, labor hours, and other expenses totaled $479,693.
|Summary of Ameren donations|
|Amount of incentive||Annual energy savings|
Every home received an assessment valued at $130. Based on the results of the assessment, work by Anton’s Air Conditioning and Heating ranged from $200 for upgrades like aerators, lighting, smoke detectors, and furnace cleaning to more than $8,000 for major improvements such as air conditioning units, furnaces, and electronically commutated motor (ECM) fans, which can achieve higher efficiency in air-flow systems.
Next steps in energy efficiency
In 2022, Beyond Housing and Ameren Missouri will kick off a third phase to provide air sealing and insulation for 138 homes where the need for additional energy efficiency improvements was identified during the assessment process.
By decreasing the amount of indoor air flowing out of the homes and increasing the effectiveness of the insulation, this work will save our renters money on their energy bills—and make the homes more comfortable and durable.
Staff from Ameren Missouri and Beyond Housing—as well as other partner companies—will continue to coordinate closely to provide these air sealing and insulation upgrades in an integrated manner, helping strengthen individual families and create meaningful and lasting change. | [

The following is taken with permission from Sun-gazers.com. Enjoy and thanks to Sun Gazers for letting us share!
With all the crazy unexpected things that are happening in the world lately, the upcoming supermoon set to happen on November 14, 2016, will finally give us something that we can all look forward to seeing. The full moon that rises in the night sky will be a truly spectacular sight to behold, one that is actually worthy of our attention and appreciation. That’s because the moon will shine brighter and appear larger than it has in the last 68 years!
The rare November supermoon is certainly one for the record books, not since January 25, 1948 has a full moon come this close to Earth. If you’re wondering what it takes for the moon to attain supermoon status, it’s the right combination of the location, timing, and phase of the moon. First and foremost, the moon has to be in either its illuminated full moon phase or the dark and entirely invisible new moon phase. Then the moon’s orbit must bring it around to the one exact point where it comes closest to the Earth. Finally, there is the timing and these two factors must closely coincide with one another for the moon to be called a supermoon.
While all full supermoons appear super-sized and much larger and brighter than usual size, this November one is extra special because it’s happening when the moon is the closest to the Earth that it has been in the last seven decades. As such, it will likely be the biggest moon you’ve ever seen.
There are many other implications which are linked to this special lunar event beyond the scientific meanings, and perhaps the biggest one is the cosmic shift in energy that will accompany it. Astrologically speaking, the November supermoon will occur when the sun is in Scorpio and the moon is opposite that, in Taurus. This brings to the forefront a sort of tug of war between the powerful, determined, and intense Scorpio energy and the responsible, stability craving Taurus. The resulting clash will create a burst of energy which you can either embrace and grow with, or oppose and struggle against.
If you choose to welcome the shift with a positive attitude then equally positive effects can be gained from it. Below is a quick overview of all the best things this supermoon in Taurus features:
It’s an opportunity to re-evaluate your goals and how to best achieve them. Whatever it is that you may be striving towards will need to be tweaked and minor adjustments should be made in order to keep them within sight and reach. The practical and responsible side of Taurus will aid you in making the best possible choices so don’t put off your goal re-assessment because now is the time for it!
It’s a time to stay grounded- Don’t let a sense of self-importance or entitlement get the best of you and drag you down. Instead, stay conscious and present, be aware of your ego and don’t get caught up in it. If you stay grounded and stable then everything will go a lot smoother.
There will be a noticeable change in many of us in the days leading up to November 14th and you’re likely going to feel much more emotional than usual. All full moons tend to bring out the crazy side of people, hence the term lunacy, but the extreme proximity of this supermoon will end up supercharging our feeling and emotions. By being aware of this you’ll be better prepared to stay grounded, as mentioned above, and the moon won’t end up wreaking havoc on your emotional sanity!
This is the perfect time to strengthen and heal any rifts with friends or family. The parent/child bond is especially highlighted here and the focus should be on respecting and honoring our close family relationships. If we are to grow and succeed in life, both mentally, spiritually, and emotionally, then we need our loved ones supporting us and on our side.
It’s the perfect time to nest. With the moon being in Taurus, the sign’s stability and security loving traits will be highlighted and you’ll want to do nothing more than stay at home and relax. Want to read that book you’ve been waiting to get to or catch up on your favorite show? Grab a warm cozy blanket, sit back, and unwind!
Break free of all the toxic people in your life. Any relationships that are hurting you, dragging you down, or holding you back need to be fully re-assessed. You need to distance yourself or cut the cord completely if you find that someone is not worth the time, effort, or stress that they bring to the table. Don’t allow someone to take advantage of your kindness, put an end to it and move on.
Overall, the shift in energy accompanying this November supermoon will be mainly positive. If you don’ | [
