Feet are the most neglected parts of our body. Which is strange, as they are extremely important. During the course of a lifetime, we walk 160,000 kilometres on them (equivalent to around 270 million steps). They not only bear our whole weight, they also suffer from being crammed into too high, too narrow or too small shoes. Feet only get our full attention when they start to feel uncomfortable or painful.
Many ancient cultures regarded feet as special parts of the body. They are our base, our foundation and our contact with the Earth and the energies which flow through it. According to reflexologists, our feet are directly related to our health because they are in fact a perfect image of our body. All organs, glands and other parts of the body are reflected (reflex) on the feet.
The same applies to feet as to hands. They also have relatively fewer sebaceous glands to protect the skin and moisture – like sweat – makes the skin sensitive.
If you have sweaty feet, it is a good idea to dust them with Purol Powder after your morning shower. This keeps feet fresh and dry and prevents unpleasant odours.
As with hands, the feet also benefit from the application of a cream. Purol hand cream helps restore the skin’s natural protective layer.
Hard skin and cracks
Exposure to daily friction and being enclosed in shoes can make the skin on the feet become dry. Insufficient perspiration can also cause dry skin. The dead skin cells are not properly removed and clog the skin, eventually resulting in hard skin. The skin feels rough and your feet can easily snag on stockings and tights. If this rough skin is not removed, cracks develop.
Areas of hard skin can be treated with Purol salve ● unguent. This softens the skin, thus preventing cracks. If you already have painful cracks, you can also use the healing action of Purol salve ● unguent. This yellow, originally medicinal salve has been proven to restore the skin. The soothing texture protects the skin and makes it supple, relieving the feeling of tightness. Apply generously to your feet and put on cotton socks, so that the yellow salve can continue its work during the night without rubbing off on your sheets.
Once your feet are back in good condition, you can maintain the skin with Purol Handcream. The cream is not greasy and is easily absorbed in the skin. | [

From the space ring, Long Yi took out a set of embroidered clothing, then he wore that clothes and threw the suit of armor inside his space ring. Only after that, he started to think which path he should take. It was clear that he shouldn’t stay in this Violent Dragon Empire anymore, so where exactly should he go? Go to the Proud Moon Empire in the north or go to Nalan Empire in the south, or just run to the small countries at the borderline of these big empires? In addition, what should he do hereafter, just living his whole life depending on this 10,000 Amethyst coins was not the nature of Long Yi.
After thinking for a long time, Long Yi was still unable to decide, so, for the time being, he decided not to think about these things and just go to a nearby town first. And then register himself at a mercenary guild and become a famous mercenary. After that take some risky missions, and temper his abilities. As his Ao Tian Jue could be refined and consolidate through only actual combat.
Blue Waves Continent has a lot of profession guilds, such as mage guild, mercenary guild, warrior guild, thief guild and so on. Every town of each country possess the strongholds of these guilds. But each guild of each country have self-control system, furthermore have a hostile relationship towards the similar profession guild of another country.
Long Yi touched the ring on his left hand, suddenly he remembered that this ring had the ability to amplify the douqi by 30%, so why not give it a try? And know in the end what the difference between douqi and Chinese internal energy was.
Long Yi took out a huge sword whose length was half the height of the human from the space ring, and with a low shout, he released Violent Dragon Douqi. Then he performed a Violent Dragon Chop, after that Long Yi sensed the energies in the air quickly poured towards his body. Together with light blue colored dragon shaped sword slash violently advance towards the big tree on the opposite side.
A few seconds later after the sword slash entered into a big tree, with a rumbling sound the big tree burst open from inside. The power was extremely terrifying.
‘It seems like douqi of this world is not devoid of any merit, at least it comparable with my level 1 Ao Tian Jue, eh, that’s not right, from my memory, Ximen Yu was merely an intermediate warrior, however how can he have the ability to release the light blue colored douqi of swordsman?’ Long Yi thought, but luckily many strange things had already happened to him, so he was not that surprised.
Long Yi recalled the principle he used to release his douqi, then he discovered the biggest difference between douqi and internal energy. The internal energy was from inside then outside, but douqi was just exactly opposite. Like this, although the internal energy was inferior to douqi in the initial stages, along with the increase in the layers of internal energy, douqi won’t be able to compare with internal energy. In the end, the power of this mysterious secret cultivation skills of Chinese and douqi was one at the heaven and other at the earth.
‘Can I mix together Violent Dragon Douqi and ‘Ao Tian Jue’? If successful then the internal and external power will be far greater.’ Long Yi thought so, but currently, he didn’t have any time to research. Because he had already bumped into even more mystical and magnificent skill in this world, that was magic. After knowing about this magnificent and also powerful skill, Long Yi was extremely interested in it. He was already unable to hold himself back to find the magic introduction book from the bookshelf in the space ring and read it.
Long Yi didn’t know how fast he was reading the book now, saying he was reading ten lines at a glance was not sufficient. Nevertheless, he was already completely immersed in the world of magic. So he himself didn’t realize how fast he was reading.
Before long, Long Yi closed the book and sighed. The major principle to release the magic was using the spiritual power to arouse the magic elements in the air, thus giving rise to different effect and power. But arousing the number of magic elements in the air depends on the strength of spiritual power and also the amount of various kinds of magic elements that could be gathered within the body. So mages mediate daily to cultivate the spiritual power and to gather the magic elements.
The first condition to practice magic was to have the magic physique. It was said every kind of magic element is mutually corresponding to the physique. Such as person with fire attributed physique could only specialize in fire element magic, and can only remain at the elementary stage in other element magic. Generally, the person having a magic physique was | [

A SENIOR politician is calling for ‘urgent action’ to address a ‘critical situation’ as latest figures reveal a third of children in four areas of East Lancashire are living in poverty.
MP Kate Hollern voiced her concerns after Government figures show 36.5 per cent of children in Blackburn with Darwen were facing poverty at the end of 2020.
Pendle has the highest percentage of low-income families - 37.3 per cent - while in Hyndburn and Burnley figures show a third of children are on the poverty line, both 33.1 per cent.
Mrs Hollern said: “It is really shocking that so many children are living in poverty and more needs to be done about levelling up and more investment in quality jobs for all areas. The UK is one of the most unequal countries in Europe for this. The Government needs to bring more opportunities for parents in Lancashire and Blackburn.
"I was a child growing up in poverty and each child should be treated equally to meet their aspirations and that is why we need investment. Urgent action has to be taken as this is a critical situation. Children shouldn't be living in poverty.”
It comes after the Lancashire Telegraph reported last year the same four areas were among the worst areas for poverty and the situation has not improved amid the pandemic.
Pendle MP Andrew Stephenson said: “It is very concerning and underlines the need for recovery from the pandemic and shows we need to make efforts to address the poverty. The Government has made progress with the living wage but we need to do a lot more to create more employers and rise out of the challenge that the pandemic is posing.”
Burnley MP Antony Higginbotham added: “This shows why I came into politics as Burnley has been left behind. The last 12 months have been difficult but the Government has been supporting people's income in the pandemic and now I want to drive up growth and work in Burnley so we can pull people out of poverty. This is exactly why Burnley and other areas have been identified as priority for levelling up funding.”
Hyndburn MP Sara Britcliffe added: “This is why Hyndburn is on the list for priority areas for levelling up funding. It has been a challenging 12 months. I have been working with community organisations to support families in the pandemic.”
The latest figures show that eight of the top 20 worst level areas were in the North West of England while Middlesbrough (39 per cent) had the highest proportion of children aged under 16 in low-income families.
In the financial year ending 2020, there were 2.99 million children living in families with low incomes. | [

This guideline reason is to be able to explain the Regulation necessities for the application of operator restraints or seatbelts on lift trucks. It is the employers' liability to ensure that every machinery, piece of equipment and device in the workplace is selected and utilized rightly and operated in accordance with the manufacturer's directions.
Rough Terrain forklifts ought to meet the regulations of ANSI Standard ASME B56.6-1992 regarding their maintenance, inspection, fabrication, use and design.
Mobile equipment like for example side boom tractors along with a Rollover Protective Structure (ROPS), ought to include seat belts which meet the Society of Automotive Engineers safety requirements; Society of Automotive Engineers Standard J386 JUN93, Operator Restraint System for Off-Road Work Machines. If any mobile machinery has seat belts required by law, the operator and subsequent passengers need to make sure they use the belts whenever the motor vehicle is in motion or engaged in operation for the reason that this can cause the machine to become unsteady and thus, not safe.
If a seat belt or different driver restraint is needed on a forklift.
The seat belt requirements while operating a lift truck depend on different factors. Whether the forklift is equipped together with a Rollover Protective Structure, the type of forklift itself and the year the forklift was actually made all contribute to this determination. The manufacturer's directions and the requirements of the applicable standard are referenced in the Regulation.
With regards to powered industrial trucks, ANSI Standard ASME B56.1-1993 refers to a driver restraint device, system, or enclosure. A driver restraint device, system, or enclosure is designed to be able to help the operator in lowering the danger of entrapment of the torso and/or head between the truck and the ground in the event of a tip over. The system or restraint device might comprise a seat belt, even though a seat belt is not necessarily a part of such machine or system.

We’ve featured quite a few LEGO Fantastic Beast creations over at TBB and this Niffler by Jannis Mavrostomos really does deserve a feature. The greedy claws of this little critter were used by LEGO on their Dimensions Niffler, so it is nice to see these parts getting repurposed on a better brick build Niffler. The platypus like beak is achieved by merging a snowboard and a plate with tooth which sounds simple, yet it is really effective. What sells this creation to me is the beady eyes. It is cute as a button.

Weather Alert : The Left only has 18 months to " Save the Planet " LMAO!!!!!!!!!
Democrats have been wrong numerous times already; doomsday passes, nothing happens, and the only outcome is a new doomsday prediction.
This is the Democrat version of science. "Climate change!" is just another tactic for turning idiots into useful idiots and keeping them in the fold.
Mark Ruffalo and Joe Romm are useful idiots by design.
One of the elements of good management/government is being able to identify a potential problem and dealing with it before it becomes a crisis.
History clearly shows that instead of the world's decision makers acting on sound expert advice they wait until they have to react to the catastrophes which their own stubborn inertia caused.
Future generations will curse us, all of us, into hell, for the bubbling poisonous inferno we're going to bequeath to them.
I'm sure we all have become weary of the mixed messages issued by the scientific elite on this subject but I feel we should study the reports dispassionately and filter out the few self-contradictory statements and concentrate on the actual measurable results.
Almost every day we're hearing global weather announcements about record rainfall, record high temperatures, landslides etc.
Governments are the only institutions which can introduce the recommendations which were agreed upon at the Paris Agreement on a worldwide basis.
Instead of letting them and ourselves off the hook we should be lobbying them to endorse and execute the expert's proposals.
My opinion is that climate change is a reality and to ignore or pooh pooh the potential of this rapidly approaching catastrophe would be grossly irresponsible.
The industrial nations must urgently formulate a united strategy to dramatically reduce the amount of Co2 gas their factories and industrial processes discharge into the atmosphere.
It is important that all the industrial nations implement the much needed Co2 reduction measures in unison and with total transparency.
China which produces almost twice the levels of Co2 gasses as The U.S.A., pays lip service to 'The Paris Agreement' while belching out some 27% of the world's destructive chemicals as opposed to America's 14%.
President Trump was, in my opinion too overt and honest by declaring his scepticism to the climate change warnings and his withdrawal from the U.N.F.C.C.C. Paris Agreement.
Should he have followed the Chinese strategy of bellowing support for the reduction in green-house gas emissions while continuing as usual and been more popular?
The Paris Accord is a meaningless piece of paper or papers for which Obie signed so he could throw tax dollars at it just to keep the minions on the left happy. Trump was never going to be popular with the American Left no matter what he has done. All those countries that signed onto the supposed Agreement were there to fleece taxpayers and Obie was quite fine with that.
Hi Outlaw, The Paris Agreement may only be a document confirming that the leaders of the world's industrial nations recognise the urgent necessity to address climate change even though many of them, apparently, do not intend to honour their commitments.
I feel it would be wrong to reject the well founded scientific certitudes upon which the agreement was based due to the probable ulterior motives of some of the more dubious characters charged with the implementation of its recommendations.
The personalities should not be allowed to taint or detract from what is probably one of the most important climatic reports of the 21st century.
First let me say this a bunch of Leftist Elitist jet off to Paris to preach to us about Man made Climate Change that drips of Hypocrisy. Now if computer models can predict the end of the Earth then why can't those same computer models predict the weather in 2020. Do not mean any disrespect as to what you might believe but i have been hearing the same old tired rhetoric since the 1970's. Every doomsday prediction comes and goes but the drum beat continues. Check Al Gore's Doomsday prediction guess what that did not work out. Climate Chaos is nothing more than a Government of Elitist trying to control the masses and i must say i will not buy into that and neither should anyone else that can see what is taking place around them by the powers that be.
You don't understand the science.
It has always been the case that global warming via the release of greenhouse gases and the decimation of lifeforms which offset this process, are the causes of anthropogenic climate change.
It's really that simple.
Climate change is happening too fast, because humans are warming the world up too fast. This will, if left unchecked, lead to a warming cascade, which will cause Earth to become uninhabitable long, long before it would have otherwise.
This has already happened through natural processes on Venus, a planet whose atmosphere contained concentrations of greenhouse gasses and water vapour which were too | [

The Benefits of 3D Scanning
3D scanning is a revolutionary technology that has transformed various industries, from architecture and engineering to healthcare and manufacturing. By capturing the physical world and converting it into precise digital models, 3D scanning provides a wealth of benefits that can significantly maximize return on investment (ROI) for businesses.
Improved Design and Prototyping
One of the key advantages of 3D scanning is its ability to enhance the design and prototyping process. Traditional methods of measurement and design are often time-consuming and prone to error. With 3D scanning, intricate details of objects can be captured accurately and with incredible speed, allowing for more efficient design iterations and prototyping.
By scanning an existing object or prototype, designers can quickly analyze the digital model and make necessary modifications without the need for physically altering the original object. This saves both time and money, as it eliminates the need for multiple physical prototypes and reduces the risk of design flaws.
Streamlined Manufacturing Processes
3D scanning also plays a vital role in streamlining manufacturing processes. By creating accurate digital representations of products, manufacturers can analyze crucial measurements and ensure precise production specifications. This minimizes errors and reduces waste, ultimately leading to higher quality products and increased customer satisfaction.
Additionally, 3D scanning enables the replication of existing parts or components, eliminating the need to start from scratch. This is particularly useful for industries such as automotive and aerospace, where replacement parts for legacy systems can be difficult to source. By scanning and 3D printing these parts, manufacturers can extend the lifespan of older systems and reduce downtime.
Efficient Quality Control and Inspection
Ensuring the quality of products is paramount to any business. 3D scanning provides an efficient and accurate method for quality control and inspection. By comparing the digital model to the intended design specifications, manufacturers can identify any defects or deviations that may occur during the manufacturing process.
Furthermore, 3D scanning allows for comprehensive inspections of complex geometries that would otherwise be challenging to measure accurately. This enhances the overall quality control process and reduces the likelihood of faulty products reaching the market, thereby preserving brand reputation and customer trust.
Enhanced Documentation and Archiving
3D scanning provides businesses with the ability to create detailed and accurate documentation of physical assets. By scanning objects, buildings, or entire environments, companies can create digital archives for future reference, documentation, and analysis.
These digital archives can prove invaluable in various scenarios. For example, in the architecture and construction industry, 3D scans can be used to document historical buildings or existing infrastructure, aiding in restoration or renovation projects. Similarly, in forensic investigations, 3D scanning can capture and preserve crime scenes, facilitating accurate analysis and reconstruction.
3D scanning services offer numerous benefits across a range of industries, including improved design and prototyping, streamlined manufacturing processes, efficient quality control, and enhanced documentation and archiving. By leveraging the power of 3D scanning, businesses can maximize their ROI by reducing costs, increasing productivity, and delivering high-quality products and services to their customers.
Investing in 3D scanning services is a strategic decision that empowers businesses to stay ahead of the competition, innovate faster, and unlock new opportunities for growth and success.

Oh boy, we're two months into Sale-A-Bration, which is the best time of the Stampin' Up! year. Have you seen the boxes they ship orders in? This totally cracks me up. When I told a friend about this, she thought I was kidding. Nope, the box REALLY says this.
OK, on to the sample I wanted to post. For this one I used Whimsical Words, which is one of the SAB stamp sets.
The ONLY way to get it is to place a qualifying order or host a qualifying workshop from now until the end of March. Don't you love the little die-cut "Kisses" piece that the words are stamped on. Those are in the Occasions Mini catalog. The flower is punched with the Jumbo Flower punch in the mini catalog. I punched 3 layers of the paper and then crumpled it up and then layered them together. All the designer paper is Cottage Wall, which is in the regular catalog. I cut up one of my embossing folders to do the single row of embossing. Fear not, I purchased 2 of them so I have one untouched Finial Press folder and then several strips that I cut out of the other one.
That's it for now. | [

There is just something about Fall that I have always loved. I don’t know if it’s the weather, the smell, the changing leaves, or all of the above, but I am – and have always been – one of those lovers of everything Fall. The whole season just makes me feel happy and at ease. If you find yourself nodding along, you likely love the fact that you live in Hastings County during these Fall months. This area is full of parks, trails, and communities to explore. If you haven’t yet, consider enjoying a family fun day in the beautiful town of Bancroft.
We recently spent a day exploring everything Bancroft has to offer and ever since then, we’ve been talking about how much we loved it! Bancroft is a charming little town right in the middle of cottage country and there are plenty of places to check out. We started our day just east of Bancroft at Egan Chutes Provincial Park – and I’m oh so glad we did!
If you’ve never been to Egan Chutes, there’s a beautiful river that runs up the middle with walking trails on either side. We picked a trail and started our hike in search of the waterfalls. The beginning of the trail is pretty flat and easy to walk, but as you get closer to the falls there are some dips and rocks that might be a bit challenging for younger kids. Our boys are explorers though, so they were up ahead checking everything out for us.
Soon, we started hearing water and we knew we were getting close to Egan Falls. Our youngest got excited and started shouting that he could hear the falls. A little further up the trail, we found what we were searching for. When we saw the falls, we just stood there and stared at them for a few minutes. For me, the sound of water is just so calming and peaceful. I could have listened to it all day. Honestly, pictures don’t do the falls justice, but hey, I tried.
Our visit to Egan Chutes inspired us to check out more trails. We’ve made plans to go for a family hike every weekend this Fall at a different park or conservation area.
After our hike, let’s just say our game plan didn’t exactly, well, go to plan. We wanted to check out Smokin’ Chip Wagon right on the main drag in Bancroft. When we got there, the line-up was quite long. With two hungry kids just finishing a hike, they understandably didn’t want to wait. However, that big line-up tells me just how awesome this place must be and why it was voted one of the best chip trucks in cottage country. We’ll definitely be back to check it out.
Then, our youngest suggested Eagle’s Nest Restaurant. We had been here before a few years ago while passing through and we LOVED it. However, it was also too busy. It seems everyone knows the good places to eat in Bancroft. We thought about heading to Maynooth for lunch at the Sun Run Café, which opened this year with new management, but since things weren’t exactly going our way, we thought we’d just head to Kawartha Dairy and grab some ice cream. When we pulled in, we noticed a cute little chip truck across the parking lot called Hillbilly Diner. So, we thought…let’s give it a whirl!
Our oldest is a lover of poutine, so that was a natural choice for him. My husband went with one of their homemade burgers, which he enjoyed. It’s a great little place to grab a quick bite to eat if you’re passing through.
Kawartha Dairy is in the same parking lot, and our youngest son loves ice cream. Actually, that’s an understatement – he’s OBSESSED with ice cream! We suggested he just get a two-scoop cone, but he somehow talked us into a three-scoop cone, and it was as big as his head! Kawartha Dairy definitely gives generous scoops. Just something to keep in mind for your future visits. I mean, check this out!
Bancroft is also home to some other great places to visit while you’re in town including Lakeside Gems just up the road from Kawartha Dairy. You can book a Geologist-led mineral collecting field trip for individuals, clubs, organizations, or school groups. It looks pretty cool!
We also wanted to stop by McG’s Cakes on Main. I checked them out on Facebook, and everything looked AMAZING! They have a lot of gluten free goodies available too. Seriously, go to their Facebook page and you’ll see why I wanted to check this place out. Sadly though, they happened to be closed | [

Religion, skepticism, and carving out a spiritual life post-Mormonism
TED Talk Tuesday: Sam Harris says science can answer moral questions
I saw this yesterday. I think when it comes to making a case for public policies based on rational thought, Sam Harris is one of the smartest guys in the room.
Some of this reminds me of the book "Universally Preferable Behaviour: A rational proof of ethics" (free download or purchasable from http://www.freedomainradio.com/Books/UniversallyPreferableBehaviourEthics.aspx) which I found quite good.
Dawkins on Sam Harris' website: "I was one of those who had unthinkingly bought into the hectoring myth that science can say nothing about morals. To my surprise, The Moral Landscape has changed all that for me."Does Richard Dawkins now believe there is objective moral truth? Does he now believe in a'real' good?Maryann SpikesSan Francisco Apologetics Examiner
@Ichthus,As dangerous as it may be to speak for someone else, or presume someone's thoughts, I will offer this:I think Dawkins might be offering up his own brand of 'happy humility'. This is something that comes bregrudgingly out of scientists from time to time, but usually signals a willingness to change.I would wager Dawkins has not become willing to leap towards an objective moral truth, or believe in a'real' good. I think he is in his way celebrating the idea that it can be studied and measured. Such an approach may bring small but sure steps of understanding which can then bring about 'good' practice.
Sam Harris is not my favorite of the four horesmen, Hitchens is, but he was really good in this. http://abcnews.go.com/Nightline/FaceOff Hope everything is going well. Happy spring to ya.Kriss
Excellent video, and Harris makes some really solid points.I can't imagine any morality more arbitrary or relativist than one based on whatever random gibberish happened to get incorporated into some "holy" book centuries ago.The only way the video would have been better is if it had left out the sniveling relativist at the end who comes on with the usual cowardly apologetics for Islamic barbarism.
Sam Harris says that science can determine what is right. In a sense, that is true. Scientific thinking can arrive at the Golden Rule (google my name and Moral Truth Litmus). Science can study the “moral center” in the brain, can try to figure out which genes work together to build a being who experiences empathy, can tell you which chemicals make a person more likely to feel prosocial feelings and carry out prosocial behavior. But in order to call the Golden Rule, or any other standard, “objective moral truth,” (without committing the fallacy of reification) science must be able to point to the real, fulfilled ought which that alleged true standard describes. Science must show us the being who is and does what we should all be and do—that for which we all hunger. Sam Harris denies such a being exists, committing the fallacy of reification in claiming objective moral truth.
Ichthus, I disagree. Here's a previous post explaining why. | [

Two earthquakes recorded near Stillwater
The Associated Press - December 5, 2017 8:54 am
STILLWATER, Okla. (AP) – Two earthquakes, including one given a preliminary magnitude of 4.2 have been recorded in northern Oklahoma.
The U.S. Geological Survey reports the quake struck just before 10:30 p.m. near Stillwater.
The U.S.G.S. reports a second quake of preliminary magnitude 2.8 struck less than 30 minutes later in the same area.
No injuries or significant damage are reported.
Thousands of earthquakes have struck Oklahoma in recent years, many linked to the underground injection of wastewater from oil and natural gas production. State regulators have directed several oil and gas producers to close some injection wells and reduce volumes in others. | [

I know it has been a while! I have had a busy couple weeks, but I am back. Here is a card I made using the wonderful Peachy Keen Stamps, BoBunny paper, and Copic markers. I think I am finally getting a hang of these markers, but I keep practicing. I also used an Impression Obsession shaker card pouch for the first time.
I tore off a piece of tissue paper to line the inside of the pouch and then put a little glitter inside also. I was trying to go for the crystal ball effect. Let me know whether you think I achieved it or not! | [

Explained herein is a method and equipment whereby windmills are used to directly propel water pumps to lift water from a lower elevation body of water to a nearby higher elevation body of water, where it is stored as potential energy.
In one application of this method, one or more water pumps, each powered directly by a windmill, lift water from downstream of a river, stream, or creek to upstream of a dam at which a hydropower plant is installed. The windmill may be of the vertical-axis or horizontal. Upon demand, the lifted water is used to generate electricity utilizing the hydropower plant. An adjustable weir is constructed across the river, stream, or creek downstream the windmill, whose function is to create a reservoir or pool from which water can be pumped and to regulate the flow of water downstream. The adjustable weir can be raised or lowered by means of a jack or jacks that are controlled by a computer. In another application of this invention, one or more water pumps, each powered directly by a windmill is installed at sites having 2 nearby bodies of water, one higher than the other. The bodies of water may be natural or artificial. The water pump lifts water from the low water to the high water, where it is stored as potential energy. Upon demand, the lifted water can be used to generate electricity utilizing a conventional hydropower plant. | [

In what is probably a bit of polite PR coordination, A Song of Ice and Fire author George R.R. Martin has written briefly at his blog about collaborating with FromSoftware and game creator Hidetaka Miyazaki in the creation of Elden Ring. He said he was excited by their “groundbreaking stuff with gorgeous art,” and so he contributed the world-building they desired: “a deep, dark, resonant world to serve as a foundation for the game they planned to create.” However, Martin said he did all of that years ago already, reflecting the increasingly lengthy development times of video games. The Game of Thrones creator unfortunately didn’t go into any further detail than that, but in a fun moment, George R.R. Martin did reveal some of the video games he used to play most often:
Now, video games are not really my thing — oh, I played a few back in the dawn of time, mainly strategy games like RAILROAD TYCOON, ROMANCE OF THE THREE KINGDOMS, and MASTER OF ORION — but this (Elden Ring) offer was too exciting to refuse.
Yep, George R.R. Martin used to play a lot of Railroad Tycoon, Romance of the Three Kingdoms, and Master of Orion. And while he may downplay his interest in video games now, Martin said to The Verge back in 2013 that he liked playing video games too much in the ’80s. He even said he “probably lost a novel or two” to playing games instead of writing, though he hadn’t specified back then which games he had been hooked on. It’s a good thing Martin isn’t playing games these days, or else the likelihood of his ever finishing A Song of Ice and Fire would shrink even further. | [

Patchworking singular algebraic curves I
- 113 Downloads
In this paper we present a general patchworking procedure for the construction of reduced singular curves having prescribed singularities and belonging to a given linear system on algebraic surfaces. It originates in the Viro “gluing” method for the construction of real non-singular algebraic hypersurfaces. The general procedure includes almost all known particular modifications, and goes far beyond. Some applications and examples illustrate the construction.

Type of Fantasy: Magical Realism
According to Arctic legend, if you whistle at the Northern Lights, they’ll swoop down and carry you off forever. Sixteen-year-old Eline Davis knows it’s true because it happened to her mother. Eli was there that night on the remote glacier in Svalbard, when her mother whistled, then vanished.
Years later, Eli is living with her dad on Cape Cod. When Eli discovers the Northern Lights will be visible for one night on the Cape, she hatches a plan to use the lights to contact her missing mother. And it works. Her mother arrives with a hazy story of where she’s been all this time. Eli knows no one will believe them, so she keeps it all a secret. But when magical, dangerous things start happening–narwhals appearing in Cape Cod Bay, meteorites landing in the yard by the hundreds, three shadowy fairytale princesses whispering ominous messages–the secrets start to become more like lies.
It’s all too much, too fast, and Eli pushes her mother away, not expecting her to disappear as abruptly as she appeared. Her mother’s gone again, and Eli’s devastated. Until she finds the note written in mother’s elegant scrawl: Find me where I left you. And so, off to Svalbard Eli goes.
The Wide Starlight was the first book I’ve read in a while that brought me to tears. Whenever an author can bring out emotion in me (besides frustration at their writing or characters), that’s worth at least three stars. The actual story in this book is just so rich and beautiful. More than anything else, it’s a tale about a girl who wants to reunite with her mother. It’s sweet and heartbreaking at the same time.
The actual writing was lovely. Almost every other chapter is in third perspective written like a fairy tale, which tosses a light sheen of magic over the story and reader. I did enjoy the mystery behind the magic in this book, but if you’re used to epic fantasy where the magic has rules and laws, just know that the magic in this book is different. Since it’s magical realism, the way the magic works isn’t explained. The part of me that loves Brandon Sanderson’s complex magic systems craved more explanation of why some people had magic and others didn’t, but not enough to ruin the story.
I loved the characters and the themes of friendship, family, lies and truth woven throughout this book that shines as bright as the Northern Lights. The settings were beautiful, though Lesperance could have done more in placing the reader in Cape Cod. I had trouble picturing it, though I could easily grasp the icy, long nights and sparkling glaciers of Norway. What a great read this would be in the winter!
I did think it odd when Eli’s mom showed up and Eli didn’t ask her about anything that I was dying to know and that seemed like normal things to ask a suddenly-appearing relative, like where she’s been all this time, what truly happened when she disappeared, and what was with all those random magic episodes when she was young?
But overall, I adored the pull of the mystery, the tendrils of magic fluttering throughout the story that Lesperance ties expertly together at the end into something beautiful, and Eli’s tenacity and deep love. This is a great book for those who enjoy character-based plots, slower/atmospheric writing, and rich characters.

This is the Evil Princess. How can you be so evil? What the hell did you do anyway? I don’t know, got a little pissed off. I guess I’m just born this way. Bad? With rage, going from one side to the other like a boat in a storm, picture of my emotional innerself. You know what, I’m glad the quality of my nature is confusing (confused) and how it makes me react in case of injustice and trauma, when you need to move fast. Have to do something to make things better and better and better. | [

AZTI-Tecnalia, the technological centre specialising in marine and food research, jointly with the Spanish Oceanographic Institute (IEO) have launched the JUVENA 2013 scientific trawl survey the fundamental aim of which is to identify the population and the spatial distribution of young anchovies in the Bay of Biscay, as well as the oceanographic processes involved in the repopulation of the stock of this fish species therein. In order to carry out the study, a group of experts from AZTI-Tecnalia and the IEO embarked from the Port of Gijón (Asturias) last Friday on board the oceanographic research vessel, Ramón Margalef, part of the IEO fleet. Subsequently, on Sunday 1 September, another team of researchers took to the sea from the same port on the Emma Bardán oceanographic research vessel, this belonging to the General Secretariat for the Sea.
The Basque technological centre has been undertaking this scientific trawl survey since 2003 and, since 2012, they have carried it out in conjunction with the Spanish Oceanographic Institute (IEO). The research will determine the abundance of the young anchovy population; i.e. of those eggs which were laid in spring and which will become fertile adults at one year of age in the spring of next year. The researchers will study, moreover, the state of their biological condition and analyse the environmental factors that affect their survival and the repopulation of the fishing grounds. The estimate of the young biomass will help to forecast the quantity of anchovies that will reach adult age over the next year. The results of the JUVENA survey are used to make recommendations to fisheries authorities about permitted anchovy catches.
The research – financed by the Department for Economic Development and Competitiveness of the Basque Government, the Spanish General Secretariat for the Sea and IEO – is to last for 35 days, over which period the two vessels will sail almost the whole of the Bay of Biscay. AZTI-Tecnalia will be responsible for the evaluation of the young anchovies while the IEO will deal with the ecological aspects related to the dynamics of stock repopulation. The scientists will calculate the population of the young anchovies through acoustic methods, using ultrasounds beamed into the water and then analysing their echoes in order to estimate the biomass in the zone under study. The scientists also have two other, additional, objectives: how to study the state of the biological condition and the behaviour of the young anchovies; as well as how to analyse the oceanographic conditions and the components of the pelagic ecosystem – that found in the uppermost layers of the sea -, from plankton to the upper layer communities of pelagic fish and the predators which feed off the anchovies (birds and marine mammals). Knowledge of this ecosystem is of great importance for understanding the process of development of the anchovy, from its larval stage to that of one year.
La JUVENA scientific trawl survey employs two vessels of small or medium size, as their lesser draught enable them to prospect in the most optimum conditions for studying the population of the young anchovies, and which usually occupy the first few metres from the water surface. Another reason for using two vessels is to cover a greater potential area in a short time, as the young anchovies, in this period, can inhabit either ocean waters out at sea or coastal waters. | [

Silvanna and Kenneth have been together for over a decade and therefore they thought they knew everything about each other and how to navigate a successful relationship. They were pleasantly surprised by the knowledge and insight provided by the Basic (Non-Religious) Course at Online Marriage Preparation. As a result of taking it, they say they feel better equipped to make their marriage a success.
I enjoyed how this course was broken up into different sections, each focusing on a different aspect of marriage. We discussed communication, expectations and roles, finances, problem solving, parenting, and relationships with family and friends. All of these topics were discussed in an open and honest way. The course had assignments that helped us learn more about each other and how to work through our differences. It was incredibly fun reminiscing back 10 years to when we first met.
At the end of the course, I felt much more prepared for this next step in our relationship. We had a better understanding of what to expect and how to handle marriage challenges. We also felt more connected to each other and had a clearer understanding of how to make our marriage a success. Overall, the pre-marital course was an invaluable experience. It helped me to gain a better understanding of myself and my partner and gave me the tools to navigate any issues that may arise in the future. I am grateful for the knowledge and experience I have gained, and I recommend the course to any couple who is preparing to get married. I was interested to see what I could learn from the course and how it would help me.
Being together for a little over a decade, I thought we had everything down. Nothing new to learn. Ultimately, I was pleasantly surprised by the amount of knowledge and insight the course had to offer. We discussed topics like communication, compromise, finances, family dynamics, and roles and expectations within the marriage. We learned the importance of trust, honesty, and respect, and how these values can help to build a strong and lasting marriage. The course also gave us practical tips and advice on topics such as budgeting, parenting, and handling disagreements. We were encouraged to have an open dialogue with each other and to practice active listening. The assignments were a great help. Overall, the pre-marital course was an insightful and invaluable experience. It gave me greater insight into the dynamics of marriage and helped me gain a better understanding of how to make it successful. It also gave me the chance to consider my own expectations and those of my partner, and to think about how we could work together to make our marriage a successful one. | [

London's Parks and Green Spaces
St. James's Park
St. James' Park is a 23 hectares (57 acres) park in the City of Westminster, central London. The park lies at the southernmost tip of the St James' area, which was named after a leper hospital dedicated to St. James the Less. The park is the most easterly of a near-continuous chain of parks that also comprises (moving westward) Green Park, Hyde Park, and Kensington Gardens. St. James' Park is bounded by Buckingham Palace to the west, The Mall to the north, Horse Guards to the east, and Birdcage Walk to the south. It meets Green Park at Queen's Gardens with the Victoria Memorial at its centre, opposite the entrance to Buckingham Palace. St. James's Palace lies on the opposite side of The Mall. The closest London Underground stations are St. James's Park, Green Park, Victoria, and Westminster.

monodroid: System.NullReferenceException in aresgen.exe
Just in case anyone else gets this uninformative error on their monodroid packaging, I got mine when I included an ImageView in my layout and this highlighted two problems.
1. I got the useless message because I hadn't created an AndroidManifest.xml file, new projects don't have them by default, so right-click on the project, go to properties, then Android Manifest, and create one. Fill in some details, the file needs to exist anyway, but you can get away with not having one until you put an ImageView in there.
2. Then when you rebuild the project you'll get a sensible message out of aresgen.exe, which for me was an incorrectly spelt resource name. My.png file was in the correct directory (Resources/Drawable) but I'd misspelled it by one letter.Hope this saves someone else 30 minutes of searching around for answers.

The 24 Bit WS2812 5050 RGB LED Built-in Full Color Driving Lights Circular Development Board has round black shape, 24 super bright smart NeoPixels LED arranged in a 86mm outside diameter circular PCB.
These ring RGB lamps can be simply connected via the output pin cascade one to the other’s input pin (DI-DO). In this way, by using only one single chip you will be able to control as many LED lights as possible, each LED lamp is integrated with a driver chip in it so that our LED becomes intelligent and addressable.
Each has a -18mA constant current drive, so the LED color will be very uniform, even if the voltage change is the same, do not need an external resistor current limiting resistor to make the overall design of the RGB lamp ring to become slim, as you see so simple and easy to use. With 5V power supply to drive the RGB lamp ring.
Single wire communication, to maximize the reduction of I/O port pressure, and the use of the RGB WS2812B driver chip, so that the peripheral circuit requires only a single capacitor can meet the needs of the circuit, give people the enjoyment of beauty, in addition, this RGB ring, but also through a simple Dout input port, and the other using the same chip RGB lamp cascade, without need considering the shape of the limit. | [

So, as I mentioned in my last blog for way too long I have allowed distractions to get in my way. They have got in the way of progressing me personally and professionally, they have hindered me achieving what I want to achieve, feeling how I want to feel, actioning what I want/need to action plus they have an effect on my psyche and my mental well-being. When I allow distractions to take precedence this affects my mind in such a way that I end up beating myself up about it and actually feeling quite down and frustrated.
Distractions can be anything from somebody texting you/calling you whilst you’re in the middle of something to your mind wandering off on a tangent disrupting your focus on a task. I personally think in the 21st Century it is incredibly difficult not to be immune to distractions, what with the constant flow of information through the numerous communication channels we now have, including social media, and the seemingly 24/7 lifestyles that our lives seem to have become. There also seems to be a requirement to be constantly available with the expectation to respond to messages, text, calls, emails straight away – it’s no wonder we’re all distracted, there is so much to be distracted by!
But … if you are constantly distracted then this will eventually have a detrimental effect on your health and the quality of your life so it needs to be managed. So far whilst I’ve been writing this I’ve received numerous emails (for some reason I have three email addresses!), a phone call from one daughter, a number of text messages from my other daughter plus my other half is on a day off today so he is in and out of ‘our’ office – this is on top of receiving notifications from various social media sites and having my mind wander off in different directions thinking of other things that I need to be doing. It’s not hard to see why I get distracted and ‘focus’ is definitely a challenging task for me.
I’m not sure if I’m like this because there’s always so much that I want to do, whether it’s because I do have a habit of becoming bored quite quickly (or is this because I don’t focus!), whether it’s to do with the modern age we live in, whether it’s the way my brain is wired or one of many other reasons. What I do know though is that something needs to be done to manage the distractions because otherwise as, Jill Coleman says, I won’t be able to GSD (Get Shit Done!).
So, what am I going to do, what strategies am I going to implement to firstly reduce the number of distractions I succumb to and secondly to GSD?!
1: Write a to do list in one place, I have so many lists (I even have lists of lists!) in a variety of different places including post it notes, scraps of paper, in notebooks, you name it if there’s pen and paper I will have written something I need to do on it – this is a distraction in itself as I’m wasting time with different lists and often hunting for them!
2: Switch off what I don’t need for what I’m focusing/working on, not always easy as a lot of my work is on the computer and it is so so tempting to have all the windows/programmes open so you can tap in and out of them, telling yourself you’re just keeping an eye, making sure that you know what’s going on, just in case (I’m a great one for ‘just in case’ but that’s a story for another blog!)
3: Try to ‘structure’ my time more and let people know when I’m working and won’t be available – as much as I love working from home I think that means other people think I’m always available to chat, pop to the shops, go out for lunch and so on – as much as I want to do those things as well I need to integrate them into my life in a much more productive way.
4: Undertake some research as to how else I can manage the distractions better and hopefully find out what it is about me personally that causes me to allow distractions to intrude so much.
Maybe you are also struggling with distractions – what strategies are you working on to reduce them? Maybe you used to struggle but now you have found ways in which to manage them, it would be great to hear from you if this is the case and to see what worked for you. It’s always good to share :-) | [

European films have been gaining more recognition in Singapore. Just this month, the Lion City’s first Ingmar Bergman Retrospective was held over four days at The Projector to celebrate the iconic director’s centenary. The festival screened eight of his films during the festival, curated by local film director Kirsten Tan to showcase Bergman’s best works.
Next month, the European Union Film Festival returns for its 28th edition. Taking place from 10 to 20 May, the festival will introduce a diverse selection of independent films from the other side of the globe to movie buffs in Singapore.
The festival kicks off with award-winning film Fly Away Home directed by Austrian film director Mirjam Unger, who has received numerous awards for her short films (including Vienna’s Lost Daughters, More or Less and Speak Easy) at international festivals. The film is a screen adaptation of a novel of the same name, and documents the events during the Russian occupation as seen from the unprejudiced perspective of a 9-year-old girl. The film has received accolades and was highly appraised by German daily newspapers Kurier and Die Presse.
If you’re looking forward to immersing yourself in the cinematic world of Unger (who will be present during the opening night screening) and other independent European filmmakers, check out these films at this year’s European Union Film Festival. You might just be hooked. | [

So it's good to know that advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS), like blind spot monitoring and lane departure warnings, are saving lives, according to the findings of another study, this time from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS). The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration just announced, however, that the number of road deaths in the US has increased for the second year running.
The first study was conducted by David Strayer and colleagues at the University of Utah and is part of a long-running research program funded by the AAA Foundation on distracted driving. The report, which was published this week, sought to answer several questions about current infotainment systems, which it notes are getting ever more complex. Among these were which types of tasks are the most distracting and if it's more work to interact with controls in the center of the dashboard (either buttons or a touchscreen, the study did not discriminate), controls between the front seats, or voice commands.
Each of the 30 different vehicles was driven by 24 different research participants, each of whom had to perform four different tasks (audio entertainment, calling and dialing someone on the phone, text messaging, and navigation) while driving on a residential road. The first two of these were equivalent in cognitive workload, but texting required much more attention, and entering a new navigation destination was the most demanding of all.
It depends what you do and what you drive
Unsurprisingly, the study found a great deal of variability between different vehicles and even between different models from the same manufacturer. As for which mode of interaction was the most distracting, if you guessed "poking a screen or buttons on the center of the dashboard," it will surprise you to learn this was actually the least demanding. Fiddling with buttons on the center console (the bit between the driver and front passenger where you also usually find a gear lever) was the most demanding way of controlling an infotainment system, though only four of the vehicles (an Audi Q7, Infiniti Q50, Mazda 3, and Nissan Maxima) actually had their infotainment controls located there.
Interestingly, voice commands kept drivers' eyes on the road but kept them distracted for longer, offsetting any benefits, thanks to much longer interaction times. If that isn't proof that more OEMs need to copy BMW's voice command system (which lets you interrupt), then I don't know what is.
There are a few caveats to this work, most notably the participants' lack of familiarity with each vehicle and its particular infotainment UI. Although they were given a brief acclimation period in each vehicle before being tested, I'm not sure they'd find the same levels of cognitive or visual demand associated with some tasks after a more lengthy period of time to develop muscle memory or find effective shortcuts. For instance, several of the functions tested can usually be controlled via a multifunction steering wheel that keeps the driver's hands on the wheel (usually in combination with the main instrument display).
As infotainment systems aren't going away any time soon, the report recommends that automakers think long and hard about whether all their infotainment features really need to be available while in motion. It notes that NHTSA guidelines recommend not letting people text, browse the Internet or social media, or enter navigation addresses while they are driving, nor should cars display long messages unrelated to driving. "Greater consideration should be given to what interactions should be available to the driver when the vehicle is in motion rather than to what features and functions could be available to motorists. With the best intentions, we will put some technology in the car that we think will make the car safer, but people being people will use that technology in ways that we don't anticipate," Strayer said.
ADAS actually works
If you do plan to enter a lot of addresses from a moving car, at least try to do it in one with some good, modern safety features. IIHS' study found that lane departure warnings reduced the number "of single-vehicle, sideswipe, and head-on crashes of all severities by 11 percent" and that injures in those kinds of crashes were down 21 percent. A less rigorous analysis of those types of crashes (which didn't control for driver demographics because of the smaller sample size) showed an 86-percent decrease in fatalities when lane departure warning was fitted.
"This is the first evidence that lane departure warning is working to prevent crashes of passenger vehicles on US roads. Given the large number of fatal crashes that involve unintentional lane departures, technology aimed at preventing them has the potential to save a lot of lives," said Jessica Cicchino, IIHS vice president for research. Interestingly, the study notes that these findings are more modest than a pair of earlier works that found lane departure reduced crashes by nearly 50 percent in US truck fleets and injuries in Swedish Volvos by 53 percent. One possible reason for this is that | [

Great breakthrough in medicine – German scientists have created the world’s first special protein implant that can help paralyzed people start walking again. The first tests on mice were successful: 80% of animals with chronic paralysis were able to restore motor ability after the implant was placed. The scientists used a procedure to mimic the embryonic development of spinal cord cells, which should reduce the risk of rejection in humans.
Below we will talk a little more about this revolutionary discovery of German scientists in genetic engineering for people, which can help people with paralysis restore their motor ability.
German scientists have advanced in the treatment of paralysis. They managed to almost completely restore the function of movement in paralyzed mice. Genetic engineering helped defeat paralysis. A special protein created by scientists in the laboratory was injected into the rodent’s brain. Thanks to this, damaged nerve fibers were restored, and after two weeks the mouse began to move. The peculiarity of this therapy is that the protein not only stimulates nerve cells, but is also transported to neurons that are located in another area of the brain. That is, thanks to one intervention, specialists will be able to ensure the regeneration of all damaged processes of nerve cells.
The invention has been successfully tested in animals, and scientists expect that within the next three years they will be able to move to clinical tests on paralyzed people. The researchers suggest that their technology could also be used to treat other diseases and injuries, such as Parkinson’s disease, brain injury, myocardial infarction and age-related macular degeneration.
In fact, all experimental methods for the treatment of paralysis in genetic engineering, which were previously proposed by scientists, were reduced to the transplantation of various cells and biomaterials, which should restore damaged areas of the spinal cord. However, most of the experiments failed due to rejection of the transplanted cells by the body due to an aggressive immune response or due to incorrect programming of cells at the gene level.
As Hans-Ulrich Demuth, leader of the research project, commented, this genetic engineering development comes from a completely new biopharmaceutical approach.
A group of scientists, led by Demuth, managed to identify the enzyme, the impact of which on the brain of an experimental animal caused brain cells to produce beta-amyloid plaques. This is the name of the protein accumulation that causes dementia, which is a typical manifestation of Alzheimer’s disease.
Researchers from Halle were able to find a substance that can block the action of such an enzyme. As a result, plaque formation in the brains of mice slowed down by as much as 80%. Scientists have already published the results of their sensational experiment in professional publications. And in the near future they plan to test whether their therapy will help mammals. Although, it is still unknown when exactly it will be possible to create a drug based on this substance that could be used in clinical practice. This will become clear only after a few years.
According to rough estimates, the costs required for further research and the implementation of the plans and ideas of scientists will amount to more than 500 million euros. However, the need to develop such a drug is quite high: in Germany alone, more than six hundred thousand people suffer from a so far incurable disease – Alzheimer’s disease.
If we talk about the latest breakthroughs in medicine, then earlier Israeli scientists also managed to make an incredible discovery in terms of its scale and clinical importance. A group of researchers implanted a special implant made of stem cells into the spinal cord of mice, which, by their natural properties, are capable of regenerating damaged tissues. A few days later, the mouse was able not only to crawl, but also to fully move around. Thus, scientists are actively working to find a means of combating paralysis and making tremendous progress in this direction. | [

May 5th is all about clean hands. At least if the World Health Organization (WHO) has its way, which declared this date to be World Hand Hygiene Day or World Hand Hygiene Day ( Save Lives: Clean Your Hands ) in 2009. Reason enough to include this day of action in the calendar of curious holidays from around the world and to tell its story in this article. Why should we wash our hands today?
Who started World Hand Hygiene Day?
As already mentioned at the beginning, the World Hand Hygiene Day goes back to an initiative of the World Health Organization and the year 2009. The basis here is/was the WHO Save Lives: Clean Your Hands campaign, which is primarily intended to raise awareness of the need for hand hygiene among healthcare workers.
Against this background, the difference to World Handwashing Day on October 15, which is also initiated by the WHO, but has a much broader focus with regard to its target group – namely all people – can be explained. In contrast, today’s 5th May focuses more on the staff of medical facilities.
Why does hand hygiene day fall on May 5th?
In contrast to many other curious holidays and action days, there is a very specific reason for choosing the date in the case of World Hand Hygiene Day. Because of the date of 05.05. According to the WHO, it symbolizes the two five fingers of a person.
Whether it’s about a substantive connection to also committed on May 5 international addition day of the photo frame (English International Picture Frame Day.), The International Hebammentag (English International Midwive’s Day or:. International Day of the Midwife) or the US Astronaut Day (English National Astronaut Day) or the cartoonist day (English National Cartoon Day) or the day of the filled baguette (English National Hoagie Day), I could not find out in the course of research. Purely thematically, however, it would definitely fit at least for the first-mentioned day of action.
Why is hand hygiene so important?
Hand hygiene is – not only in the medical field – one of the most important protective measures for avoiding infections. Regardless of whether it is flu viruses, gastrointestinal diseases or infections – washing and disinfecting hands correctly and regularly should be a top priority for all medical staff. Especially in view of the increasing number of antibiotic-resistant germs in medical facilities.
But be careful: Anyone who thinks that they now simply use disinfectants from the medical field for domestic use should think again. On the one hand, these agents disinfect so efficiently that they kill all germs on the skin. So also those that the body needs to strengthen its immune system. On the other hand, in times of the Covid 19 pandemic, they should also be reserved for the facilities that really need them.
With this in mind: wash your hands. | [

You might think of any given coal type as having relatively uniform properties: black, hard, carbon filled, and so on. However, dangerous mineral constituent concentration do vary widely; and, emissions of toxic constituents also vary greatly depending upon the design and operation of a combustion source. For example, some coal has trace levels of fluorides, while other deposits have highly hazardous levels of toxic fluorine compounds. The same is true for mercury, for arsenic, and for uranium and its radiological decay products. Relative to the radiological hazard, anecdotal evidence has emerged in India of children suffering from exposure to radionuclides associated with coal fired electricity production.From The Observer story titled India's generation of children crippled by uranium waste.
Health workers in the Punjabi cities of Bathinda and Faridkot knew something was terribly wrong when they saw a sharp increase in the number of birth defects, physical and mental abnormalities, and cancers. They suspected that children were being slowly poisoned.
But it was only when a visiting scientist arranged for tests to be carried out at a German laboratory that the true nature of their plight became clear. The results were unequivocal. The children had massive levels of uranium in their bodies, in one case more than 60 times the maximum safe limit...
The test results for children born and living in areas around the state's power stations show high levels of uranium in their bodies. Tests on ground water show that levels of uranium around the plants are up to 15 times the World Health Organisation's maximum safe limits. Tests also show that it extends across large parts of the state, which is home to 24 million people.
The findings have implications not only for the rest of India - Punjab produces two-thirds of the wheat in the country's central reserves and 40% of its rice - but for many other countries planning to build new power plants, including China, Russia, India, Germany and the US.

We don't know, from the cited article, the types and effectiveness of pollution controls at coal-burning, state power plants in Punjab India; nor do we know exactly how fly ash and other residuals were dispersed from them, relative to the allegedly exposed children. Hence, I refer to cited evidence from article as "anecdotal". That said, the Observer article explains a great deal more about what has been alleged about uranium exposures there, and is worth reading in its entirety before you comment.

BroadSeis™ extends the bandwidth to both high and low frequencies to deliver over 6 octaves of signal, with the best signal-to-noise ratio at low frequency. BroadSeis has been proven to be AVO compliant on both synthetic and real data, incorporating fully amplitude preserving deghosting algorithms to deliver true-amplitude, high-resolution subsurface images, reliable AVO attributes and stable, quantitative seismic inversion. As a consequence of the proprietary curved streamer configuration, BroadSeis is able to deliver the deepest tow in the industry, up to 50m to record low-noise ultra-low frequencies down to 2Hz. When combined with full source characterization and accurate 3D designature and debubbling, BroadSeis delivers stable low frequencies.
Why does your seismic inversion work so well? Because low frequencies in CGG broadband are so good!"
A major international oil company at Devex 2015
The lower frequencies provided by BroadSeis mean that a low frequency model derived from well logs is not required
The broad bandwidth and ultra-low frequencies achieved using BroadSeis acquisition and processing, translate into more accurate and quantitative seismic inversion. The lack of low frequencies in conventional seismic data means that a low frequency model must be incorporated into the inversion process. With BroadSeis data, high-resolution NMO-derived seismic velocities are used to define the low frequency model in the 0-5 Hz range, while the reflectivity provides information from 2.5 Hz. BroadSeis low frequencies are also ideal for FWI (Full Waveform Inversion) which yields extremely detailed velocity models and so raises the frequency provided by the seismic velocities, and reduces the gap between reflectivity and velocity from the low end. This means that quantitative inversion can be performed, even in areas without existing well information.
In order to quantify the impact of the low frequency content on seismic inversion, the results of 3D acoustic inversion over a test area of around 1330 km2 over a Brazilian offshore field were compared for BroadSeis and conventional flat streamer data. The first target was the Eocene reservoir and the second the pre-salt carbonates. The objective was to see the difference in acoustic inversion results for conventional and BroadSeis seismic datasets, quantified by a blind well test, and to delineate the Atlanta reservoir. The test was executed with effort to synchronize all parameters of both inversions and see the result caused by the differences in the input data. The same initial model was used for both inversions and was created based on the logs from Well X with Vp (P-wave velocity) and density values being interpolated along basic horizons. A low-pass filter of 2-5Hz was applied to the model. All inversion parameters are based on Well X and Well Y was used as a blind test.
The most obvious difference between them is that the broadband result shows much sharper borders of the pay interval of the reservoir (indicated by blue low impedance zones). The same effect can be seen on the vertical sections. The BroadSeis inversion defines the geometry of the reservoir better and decreases the uncertainty in calculating the reservoir volume. There is also better definition of geological bodies separated by faults, even where a fault is not included in the initial model, making interpretation easier and more reliable.
The impedance from the BroadSeis inversion gives a better match to the “blind” well Y (below) – the inversion values are closer to the real log values because of the presence of low frequencies.
In this example from northwest Australia, the inversion of BroadSeis data shows greater dynamic range and sharper boundaries than that from conventional data. There is an excellent tie with the well logs, which were not used in the inversion process. Both the conventional and BroadSeis inversions started from the same initial model.
The elastic parameters derived from the seismic inversion were used to predict the lithology using LithoSI. In this technique, a supervised Bayesian classification is performed to produce probability cubes of the predicted lithology or rock properties.
The gas sand prediction from the BroadSeis data matches the well data much better than the conventional data. This indicates a considerable reduction in the uncertainty of the lithology prediction, which is also shown in the cross-section below, where the BroadSeis data gas prediction matches the well logs with a high degree of probability. Note that the BroadSeis data also indicates a high probability of gas sands in a discrete volume between wells A and B, which is not apparent on the conventional

While the whole universe is still a mystery, what we can gather about our observable universe is that it contains 3 spacial dimensions and 1 time dimension and is a total of 93 billion light years in diameter. As far as we have been able to determine, there has been no sign of life except for us.
It is possible that the universe is indeed infinite. Though the Big Bang theory would suggest that at one point the universe was compressed into a small point which then "exploded" into the surrounding nothingness; something like this could still have happened if our universe were infinite.
The measurable space we call the "Universe" could have been compressed into a point within a larger infinite space before simply expanding (a process which obviously continues to this day). However the more our universe expands, the longer it takes light to reach our planet, meaning unless we begin to expand ourselves further throughout the universe it will take longer and longer to discover more of the whole universe.
Other names for this space "The Known Universe" or "Reality", though the latter term can be applied to everything that exists whether or not humans are aware of it.
Some people think there is a Multiverse. If there is, then this wiki would live.

i hope its good. third movies are sometimes the worst
I'm planning on seeing Captain America so I hope the ASM trailer is attached to that.
If it isn't.. I'm gonna raaage.
On topic: Apparently the Tumbler has been spotted in Pittsburgh! Or has that already been mentioned..?
Off topic: I plan on hopefully seeing Captain America, and I want to see the AMS trailer because: (1)I'm curious if it will be better than the Sam Raimi Spider-Man movies, and (2)I want to know if his costume looks better than it has in the pictures I have seen.
SuperheroHype: Vehicles spotted.
Off topic: The (Spidey) suit is getting a lot of hate, mainly because of all the amateur pics people have been posting.
Have you seen the photos EW had? If you haven't seen then, take a look. The suit look great in those photos.
I think ASM has the potential to become much better than Raimi's Spider-Man films.
Yeah, thats where I heard about the Tumbler.
Off topic: It wasnt the amateur pics, I'm not a fan of the design is all. I dont like his gloves or the eyes on the mask.
Ohh. Yeah, the glove look pretty weird. I read Ultimate Spider-Man growing up so I was used to the big 'eyes' so I kinda dislike the lenses of the new suit.
The costume itself is very different from the classic Spider-Man costume but he's still recognizable as Spider-Man. | [

ROUND ROCK, Texas & OKLAHOMA CITY--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The National Institutes of Health (NIH) has issued a Phase II Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) grant to biopharmaceutical company GMSbiotech, Inc. (GMS)—creator of novel microarray-based diagnostic solutions for personalized medicine—and subcontractor Pure Protein, L.L.C. (Pure Protein)—a leader in soluble Human Leukocyte Antigen (HLA) reagents production and application development—to co-develop and deploy a diagnostic assay for organ transplant patients.
This microarray-based assay will detect antibodies against HLA antigens or DSA in patient serum and to evaluate the efficacy and success of preventing rejections in organ transplantation. The assay is based on a merger of GMS’s patent protected novel microarray platform with patented, sHLA proteins manufactured by Pure Protein. This assay approach resolves several deficiencies present in the bead-based assays currently used in clinical transplant labs by minimizing variability in results, reducing the occurrence of false positives and negatives, decreasing high background levels and enhancing detection specificity. The envisioned assay will provide increased accuracy in identifying DSA, improving transplant outcomes, and facilitate better donor – recipient matching to reduce the risk of both false positives and false negatives in acute AMR, as well as early detection of DSA post-transplant patients that can cause chronic organ rejection.
“GMSbiotech is looking forward to this partnership with Pure Protein,” said Dr. Krishna Jayaraman, GMS Interim CEO and Chairman. “The combination of GMSbiotech’s novel Protein Array platform with Pure Protein’s unqiue sHLA proteins will allow for the development of a superior assay that we believe will have significant clinical impact in the transplantation field.”
“As proud members of Oklahoma’s growing biotech industry, the Pure Protein/Pure Transplant Solutions team is thankful for this award and excited to collaborate with GMS to utilize our nearly two decades of experience working with soluble HLA technology for application and development of a Chip-based antibody screening assay,” said Rico Buchli, PhD, Director of Research, Pure Protein. “The final product will fulfill a critical need long sought after by key leaders and clinicians in the transplant community.”
GMSbiotech, Inc. is a privately held company focusing on its patented microarray platform to develop accurate and affordable genetic and serology tests. With the company’s disruptive technology in Raw Sample Genotyping (RSG) combined with its microarray platform, complex genetic testing experienced by labs across the field has been substantially simplified into a routine, everyday low-cost component of clinical diagnostics and public health screening. The company is commercializing its technologies with an initial focus on transplantation diagnostics. For more information visit: www.gmsbiotech.com.

I explore colour and texture using a range of materials and techniques. Pieces often begin as a collage of fabrics, dyed, painted or printed, machine-stitched together before being over-sewn with layers of hand embroidery and other embellishments such as beads, buttons and foils. Some are landscapes, celebrating the beauty of rural Warwicksire while others are more abstract, compositions of fabrics and stitch with the imperfections of the materials - frayed edges and hanging threads - adding to the richness of the whole. Every scrap of fabric has a secret back story and each piece of my work has it's own story too. This is often alluded to in the title.
I hope my textile art pays some sort of tribute to all the generations of women throughout history who darned, knitted and stitched to keep their families warm and their homes beautiful. I do like to think that In my own small way I'm continuing that noble and undervalued tradition and each piece is an act of love.

June CPI Inflation to marginally ease, says DBS
May factory output and June inflation numbers are likely to reinforce the status that India's industrial activity remains weak while headline inflation hovers at recent highs, says a DBS report.
According to DBS, June consumer price index-based (CPI) inflation is expected to marginally ease to 5.6% year-on-year from May's 5.8%, but a shade above January-May average of 5.4%.
Food prices are likely to account for much of the pick-up. Moreover, domestic fuel prices have risen in the month, mirroring a global trend.
Going forward, DBS expects food prices to ebb as supplies catch up and inflationary expectations soften on strong rains.
"But further disinflation will be limited ahead of upcoming public sector wage and pension increases," the report predicted.
It further noted that the central bank is likely to be in-transition mode until July-September quarter of 2016, as the new Reserve Bank of India (RBI) Governor likely to be announced later this month, followed by the monetary policy committee members, possibly in August.
"We thereby defer our rate cut call to fourth quarter (Q4) of 2016, when further clarity on the policy leaning of the new Governor is discernible, inflation targets are reviewed and the new policy committee takes charge of rate decisions," DBS said.
In the June policy review meet, RBI Governor Raghuram Rajan kept interest rates intact, citing rising inflationary pressure, but hinted at a reduction later this year if good monsoon helps ease inflation.
The industry is still hopeful of further rate reduction from the central bank to boost investment. | [

Acharya Institutes Consolidates Campus-Wide Wi-Fi Access Using Aruba Networks’ 802.11n Solution
Wire-Like Performance of New High-Speed Wireless Network Expected to Satisfy Soldevanahalli Campus’ Networking Needs for Years to Come
Aruba Networks, Inc. (NASDAQ: ARUN), a global leader in distributed enterprise network solutions, today announced that Acharya Institutes has deployed its high-speed 802.11n networks across its 120 acre North Bangalore Soldevanahalli campus, including the Acharya Institute of Technology (AIT). Established in 1990, and today one of India’s top fifty engineering colleges, the Soldevanahalli campus has over 5,600 students and more than 670 faculty and staff. The new 802.11n system upgrades an Aruba 802.11abg network in use for the past three years, and replaces legacy HP ProCurve and Apple Wi-Fi access points.
“Laptop usage increased three fold over the past three years, and the demand for pervasive network access across the campus by increasingly mobile users was growing daily,” said Dr. Ramesh Babu, AIT’s Head of the Systems and Computer Science Department. “Our site had different Wi-Fi networks in the academic buildings, library, and pre-university facilities. The network refresh presented an opportune time to both consolidate everything into a single unified network while moving to a high-speed 802.11n network that would meet our needs into the future.”
Universities throughout India are using equipment refresh cycles to assess how their networks are being utilized, and are adopting 802.11n as students and faculty move to Wi-Fi as their primary form of network access. Positioned in the “Leaders” quadrant in Gartner’s 2009 “Magic Quadrant for Wireless LAN Infrastructure (Global)”* report, Aruba is one of the foremost suppliers of wireless LANs to educational institutions worldwide, with best-in-class capacity, client density, security, and reliability.
“Our Aruba 802.11abg network had run for over three years without so much as a single problem, a fact not lost on our IT department when it came time for an upgrade,” continued Dr. Babu. “The system uses a single console to manage security, configuration, and RF parameters – minimizing training and simplifying system operation. When these factors are coupled with Aruba’s strong local support team, they were the logical choice for our campus-wide 802.11n network.”
Students are increasingly using Wi-Fi networks for high-bandwidth multimedia applications, including video and gaming. These demanding uses can easily strain a network that isn’t designed to deliver high capacity or high client densities. Aruba’s networks are application-aware, dynamically adapting quality-of-service, airtime, and other parameters to ensure that data, voice, video, and telemetry are delivered reliably and with full fidelity.

Cold, sunny days in the forecast
Temperatures will once again hover near zero degrees in the days to come. Overnight lows dropping to near double digits below zero on the east side of town, and single digits below zero on the west side. Under clear skies, the sun will warm Anchorage to above zero each day— even if not by much.
It's not just you, this is some serious cold. We really didn't see this kind of cold in Anchorage in the past decade. In fact, the past 22 months in Anchorage (almost 2 years) have recorded temperatures higher than that of the average over the previous 30 years. Confusing, but long story short— temperatures were above normal. So when we see 2 weeks of temps well below normal, it feels downright cold.
When it comes to the month of January, this one of the coldest starts Anchorage has ever seen. January is typically the coldest month of the year. If you average the first 15 days of the month, high and low temperatures over the past 30 years— it's about 17 degrees. This year, the first 15 days give us an average temperature of just 1.7 degrees. Hardly above zero; and in the days to come that average temperature is expected to stay much colder than the norm.
That officially makes this one of the top 5 coldest starts to a year on record!
There is a carrot dangling in front of us. A shift in the weather pattern looks to bring about some warmer temperatures by next week. The warmer temperatures start moving in Sunday along with some cloud cover. By Monday the chance of flurries will bump temps up into the teens for much of the Anchorage bowl.
Until then, bundle up! Temperatures will hover near zero degrees, getting colder each day through Saturday.
Thankfully, all of this cold comes with ample sunshine! So don't forget the sunglasses.

Japan 3D map JV beginning process of creating high-def 3-D maps for autonomous vehicles; dynamic mapping
The Nikkei reports that Tokyo-based Dynamic Map Planning (DMP), formed earlier this year by Mitsubishi Electric, mapmaker Zenrin and nine automakers, will begin creating high-definition 3-D maps for self-driving cars this month.
The project is supported by the Japanese government (SIP-adus, Strategic Innovation Promotion Program Innovation of Automated Driving for Universal Services) in support of an effort to have autonomous vehicles on the road by 2020 equipped with a dynamic mapping system that combines real-time, “dynamic” information with a high-definition 3D map base. The result, say the planners, is a “one stop” information source that can provide necessary information for automated driving.
|Concept of the Dyanmic Map. Click to enlarge.|
DMP will begin by constructing maps covering 300 km (186 miles) of the main expressways. The development of 3-D road maps is part of the Cabinet Office‘s Cross-ministerial Strategic Innovation Promotion Program (SIP) and commissioned to the Dynamic Map Planning joint venture.
3-D maps, based on survey data of road grades, structures, signage and other inputs, offer highly accurate data used by autonomous vehicles to determine positioning. Although sensors can help cars navigate within lanes and prevent crashes with vehicles in front, recognition errors still present a problem. Sensors also have difficulty with complex road patterns—highway off ramps, for example, because they cannot determine which is the right-turn lane among several road lanes.
Although current vehicle navigation systems can display 3-D maps, however, these maps lack precision and data. In cases where elevated highways are located above a car, the navigation system often shows an incorrect location of the vehicle. The combination of high-resolution 3-D maps and sensors will enable the accurate detection of lane position and the distance to intersections or junctions.
Mitsubishi Electric has developed high-precision surveying equipment (Mobile Mapping System, MMS) that will be installed on a canvassing vehicle. Sensors designed to detect the inclination of the car will measure the road grades.
Data including the locations of road signs and traffic lights, as well as right- and left-turns and pedestrian crossings, will be collected using lasers. The survey data will be displayed as a collection of dots. Lines on the road, such as lanes, noise barriers and road signage, will be plotted on that image to re-create road conditions for 3-D maps.
A third SIP-adus Workshop on Connected and Automated Driving Systems is scheduled for 15-17 November in Tokyo. Among the topics to be explored further at this workshop will be dynamic mapping. | [

Based on the 1993 book by author Robert O’Connor, director Gregor Jordan’s Buffalo Soldiers seemed to be the latest cinematic entry in the darkly comical military films from the tradition of Dr. Strangelove, M*A*S*H, Catch 22 and Three Kings but two days after its debut at the Toronto Film Festival, an event occurred that would forever alter viewer’s perception in the form of 9/11. Shelved more than two years until a rerelease at Sundance where infamously an angry woman thrust a bottle of water at the cast in her disgust at what she perceived was Anti-American sentiment, there was a question of whether contemporary America would ever be ready for Buffalo Soldiers. However, in my recent viewing six years after its '01 premiere and when our country is involved in two wars, I can finally see it for what it is—an entertaining and compelling film and not at all the “evil” piece of propaganda that it’s been labeled in the past for as critic James Berardinelli wrote in his review, the film’s “viewership should not be diminished by the unfortunate and inaccurate ‘Anti-American’ label.” In fact, as of this writing, the film has a 70% fresh rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
Featuring another great, charismatic and offbeat turn by Joaquin Phoenix (one of the most exciting chameleon actors of his generation), the film chronicles the exploits of Ray Elwood (Phoenix) who is persuaded to enlist in the army after getting into trouble with the law and ends up stationed at the Theodore Roosevelt Army Base outside of Stuttgart in West Berlin, 1989 just before the wall is going to fall. Using his experience as a criminal, Elwood works by day as the battalion secretary for his dim-witted but teddy bear of a commander Colonel Berman (Ed Harris) and sells anything he can get his hands on in the black-market. When he isn’t rerouting government requisitioned Mop ‘N Glo to the locals, Elwood has yet another job as a heroin cook for the intimidating Military Police who dominate the base but he begins to find himself jeopardized by first finding five million dollars worth of stolen arms and secondly, by the arrival of rough, tough Vietnam vet Sgt. Lee (Scott Glenn) who arrives on base to weed out crooks like Elwood. Lee’s methods go from offensive to defensive when Elwood begins dating his free-spirited young daughter Robyn (Anna Paquin) and in order to punish the soldier Lee uses his Mercedes as a target practice for the squad. Being the girl in a military film is never easy but mature Paquin dives right into it headfirst, the same way her character Robyn dazzles Elwood in her dives from the highest board above the army pool on the base. Although it’s hard to empathize with a character who is as scheming and dishonest as Elwood, we’re completely engrossed in the wickedly funny storyline. In fact we're so hooked that we stay tuned even as things get progressively more distressing and harder to believe thanks largely in part by the subtle direction and sharp performances by our leads with an especially impressive counter-balanced dynamic of Elwood’s two opposing male authority figures Harris and Glenn whose radical differences recall the Berenger and Dafoe characters in Platoon.
Despite its cynical approach, the film is one that comes from a long line of these intriguingly different looks at the armed forces and director Jordan (much like the book’s author O’Connor) respects the intelligence of his audience enough to trust that they’ll realize it’s satirical and one of the better M*A*S*H like military comedies of the new generation… that is, if viewers take the time to seek it out with an open mind. | [

Welcomed Mid Winter Thaw
Congrats to all! We have survived the traditional “dead of winter"!
A close inspection of long time climate records shows that the last 10 days of January and first 10 days of February are often known for the coldest and snowiest weather of the season.
In aggregate then, we are about to enter the tail end of the winter season.
Granted it is only February 5th, but the pattern the next 5 days will resemble March more than February with nothing harsh and snowy in the pipeline through early next week. That will put us to February 11th and beyond the dead of winter!
But hold onto your seats! Since a recurrence of the siege of winter weather that we have just survived may make a comeback in the second half of February (yes, I believe the biggest snowstorm and coldest day of the season are still ahead), it is prudent to explore this winter’s history as a way to speculate what may come our way next.
For the first 4 weeks of winter, starting with the pre-Christmas solstice and lasting through the King Holiday weekend, our region managed just a few dustings of snow and run of the mill chilly temperatures.
Then starting on January 22nd, a series of arctic fronts and polar snow clippers slashed their way through our region.
First the coldest air in 2 winters invaded (11 degrees with wind chills below zero) prompting a frozen pipe alert. Three snowfalls helped refrigerate the air for several nights as ponds and streams took on a healthy sheet of ice.
A sudden 3 day warm wave gave us a brief reprieve at January’s end. This wave came complete with roaring winds and near record highs of 70+ degrees. On January 29th, the official temperature gauge at Tri-State airport failed depriving us of a certain record high temperature.
I personally had no qualms calling that day the warmest in recorded history in Huntington since the downtown temperature at Cabell EMS and at Old Main on MU’s campus registered 73 degrees.
Then just as suddenly the snows and harsh cold came roaring back. LIKE A RUBBER BAND STRETCHED TO ITS LIMIT, Mother Nature snapped back. Six straight days of light to moderate snowfalls netted most areas 4 to 6 inches of snow cover while temperatures fell into the single digits for the coldest air since 2010. (Charleston fell to 7 above this past Saturday morning).
The driving force behind the change from mild to harsh focused on the reorientation of the jet stream. For most of the first 4 weeks of winter, a Pacific flow of moderate air bathed Appalachia as it blew quickly and pleasantly from the west coast to east coast.
All the while a deeper snow pack was building in Siberia and most of Canada (away from the oceans). Since air over that snow cover was refrigerated by the snow, morning lows in the -20 to -40 range were common from the Northwest Territories (where Klondike Tony visited this past summer) to the home of the 2014 Winter Olympics in the fatherland of Russia. Ouch!
It merely took a change in jet stream wind direction to channel the cold and snowy clippers our way a second time. As the jet stream flow turned to the north, the cold came swooping back into the Midwest and Eastern USA.
And that pattern held its ground for a week before succumbing to another Pacific westerly wind flow at jet altitude level.
So you see the pattern! Cold shots of arctic air interrupted by mild streaks of oceanic air from the Pacific.
Now the latest news flash should not surprise you!
During the next 5 days, the flow will revert to a Pacific (peaceful) westerly direction with mild ocean air flooding the eastern USA.
Given the history of this winter with bouts of cold and snow overwhelming periods of mildness every few weeks, I am not about to buck the trend and pronouce winter over.
Instead, I will go with the "snap-back" theory to work its snowy magic again with another period or two of very cold continental air to invade in the second half of February.
If that occurs, the cold in Canada and Eurasia will come charging south for another blast or two of harsh winter weather and more SNOW DAYS for the kids and teachers!
The questions to be answered yet are whether the snap back will feature a big eastern snowstorm and whether the cold will lock in or again be fleeting.
Here’s a look at my favorite European weather model as it predicts a cold and snowy pre-Valentine's Day set-up. | [

It is thrilling and exciting to ride a motorbike. However, the unpleasant truth is that if basic safety measures are not implemented, riding a motorbike may be highly deadly. According to the Canada Department of Transportation’s (DOT) 2016 assessment, car drivers are 28 times more likely than motorcyclists to die in a traffic collision. The DOT also stated that 5,029 motorcycle riders lost their lives in crashes in 2016—a 5.1% increase from 2015.
Given these figures, it is evident that motorcycle safety is a top priority. Therefore, we’ve put up a list of advice so you may enjoy your journey without risk.
Enroll in a safety class.
You may learn motorcycle-specific traffic laws in a safety course. Additionally, you’ll learn the correct responses to use in potentially unforeseen riding circumstances. Safety training can assist you in developing the ability and sound judgment needed to operate a motorbike.
You should check the weather before leaving.
Your ride may be hampered by snow, ice, or rain. Biker driving is risky in these conditions since you have less grip than a car and less visibility. If bad weather is predicted, pick an alternative day.
Put on your riding gear.
You are shielded from the weather, road rash, and debris by your motorcycle gear. A DOT-approved helmet, goggles, leather jacket, leather leggings or chaps, over-the-ankle boots, and non-slip gloves are among the necessary accessories. To adapt to any changing weather during the day, layer your clothing.
Before each ride, check your motorbike.
Before you ride, check your bike to ensure it is as secure as possible. Examine your brakes, gasoline, oil, tire pressure, mirrors, handlebars, turn signals, taillights, headlights, and horns.
Use your turn signals, abide by the speed limit, and obey traffic laws.
Although it may sound counterintuitive, it’s crucial to go by the law, utilize signals, and travel under the stated speed limit to prevent accidents. The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety reports that in 2009, excessive speed contributed to 48% of motorcycle fatalities.
You can’t presume other drivers can see you. In 75% of motorcycle accidents lawyer, other vehicles failed to spot the motorbike, according to The Hurt Report, a publication of the National Highway Traffic and Safety Administration of the United States Department of Transportation in 1981. Here are a few strategies for staying visible:
- Drive with your headlights on, especially during the day.
- Wear reflective or visibly bright clothes.
- Stay out of other drivers’ blind areas.
- Always use your turn and hand signals.
Pay attention to any risks on the road.
When you drive cautiously, you can anticipate traffic jams and other dangers on the road. You might lose traction when driving through sand, grease, or gravel. It would be best if you avoided both bumps and potholes since they are both harmful. It would be best if you cross train tracks at the proper angle.
Maintain a safe distance.
It’s dangerous to tailgate. It is advised to keep at least four seconds between you and the car in front of you. This will enable you to halt in an emergency. Plan an escape route in case you can’t stop in time, like going to the shoulder.
Keep a first aid kit with you.
In an accident, keeping a basic first-aid kit with your motorbike is a good idea. You should include disinfecting wipes, bandages, hand sanitizer, gauze, adhesive tape, and Band-Aids.
Enroll in an advanced riding class.
By enrolling in an advanced riding school, you may practice and develop your abilities. You will pick up control tricks, braking methods, and complex turning manoeuvres.
We hope the advice on this list will help you plan a fun and safe road trip on your next outing. You can also contact our Ontario motorcycle accident attorneys for your protection. | [

Introduction to ISOLTRAP
Accurate mass measurements of short-lived nuclides are of high interest for a number of reasons: They allow direct observation of nuclear structure effects like the location of shell and sub-shell closures, pairing, or the onset of deformation. In combination with a precise study of super-allowed beta emission they provide tests of the standard model. Additionally, masses of unstable nuclei are the most critical nuclear physics parameters for reliable nucleosynthesis calculations in astrophysics.
The tandem Penning trap mass spectrometer ISOLTRAP at the on-line isotope separator ISOLDE at CERN /Geneva plays a leading role in this field. The masses of more than 200 short-lived nuclides have been measured with a relative uncertainty of typically δm/m ~ 1*10-7 and even almost up to one order of magnitude lower in some special cases. Recently, the performance of the Penning trap mass spectrometer ISOLTRAP has been considerably enhanced. Major technical improvements were implemented to increase the range of accessible nuclei to those that are produced in minute quantities of only 100 ions/s and to nuclei with half-lives down to ~50 ms as well as to decrease the typical relative uncertainty down to ~1*10-8. In particular, a linear radiofrequency quadrupole (RFQ) trap and a carbon-cluster source were added to the ISOLTRAP spectrometer. Since the unified atomic mass unit is defined as 1/12 of the mass of 12C the calibration of the magnetic field with carbon clusters allows absolute mass measurements. | [

Check out the official trailer of Believe Me, an upcoming drama comedy movie directed by Will Bakke based on a script he co-wrote with Michael B. Allen:
“Desperate, broke, and out of ideas, four college seniors start a fake charity to embezzle money for tuition.”
The cast includes Alex Russell (who played the role of Matt in the 2012 movie “Chronicle“), Zachary Knighton, Johanna Braddy, Miles Fisher, Sinqua Walls, Max Adler, with Nick Offerman, and Christopher McDonald.
There’s also a poster:
It’s only a sin if you get caught.
The tagline of this poster refers to embezzlement… but I guess it could also apply to adultery, nope? LoL!
The release date of Believe Me is set to September 26, 2014.
Update – A fellow movie fan left on youtube a witty comment about Alex Russell who’s starring in the film:
“So after killing his cousin and flying to Tibet, he swears to never use his powers again? I’m confused.”

Launching of death penalty abolition project in Barbados and the Eastern Caribbean
The objective of this event was to allow the partners of the project funded by the European Union to meet and set strong basis for their collaboration in the fight for the abolition of the death penalty in the region.
The opening of the meeting, chaired by David Berry, dean of Law of the University of the West Indies was attended by around 30 people including the partners of the project, law students of the Cave Hill campus, but also representatives from the European Union and the United Nations in Barbados.
After the opening, several sessions took place, where the partners of the project presented the different activities that they will develop within the three years: a study and a survey, mobilization kits, information tools, UPR shadow reports, speaking tours as well as films and documentary screenings.
Dr. Lloyd Barnett, member of the Greater Caribbean for Life’s board, addressed the issue of the importance of having a revitalised strategy for the anti-death penalty movement. The population in the Caribbean is young and they need to be aware of the inconsistencies and injustice of the death penalty. The message that this project should promote is, in his own words “You cannot protect life by promoting death”.
For his part, Saul Lehrfreund, Co-director of the Death Penalty Project, explained that the project will also focus on the need to rebut the argument for death penalty based on public opinion. In this sense, he stated: “It is important to inform the general public as much as possible but public opinion should not avoid political leaders from taking action”. Furthermore, although an important part of the project will focus on the political elites in the Eastern Caribbean, Leela Ramdeen, Chair of the Greater Caribbean for Life, highlighted that the awareness raising is not only essential, but complementary to the work with the political elites. The Greater Caribbean for Life and the World Coalition Against the Death Penalty will focus on strengthening and mobilising civil society, and lauched a call for actions in the region. To this end country representatives from the Eastern Caribbean states: Antigua and Barbuda, Barbados, Dominica, Grenada, Saint Lucia, Saint Kitts and Nevis, as well as Saint Vincent and the Grenadines were also invited to the meeting with the purpose of creating a strong civil society movement in each one of the countries
The second day was fully devoted to a training for the country representatives. It started with a tour de table, where each representative presented the situation of the death penalty in their country and the obstacles to its abolition. The three main obstacles that came out of the discussion are public opinion, political will and the lack of awareness raising.
The purpose of the training was to work on how to overcome the obstacles. To this end, the facilitator presented case studies on successful strategies for the abolition of the death penalty. Later on, the participants worked on a concrete advocacy strategy and presented the events that they are planning for World Day against the Death Penalty. | [

A two-storey extension to a house which would have blocked light from a neighbouring sunroom has been unanimously thrown out by councillors.
The owners of the property on Sanderson’s Grove, Tranent, wanted to add an extension which would have turned the house from a three-bedroom to a six-bedroom property.
But while planning officers recommended the extension for approval, councillors ruled against it.
At a virtual meeting of the planning committee, local ward councillor Colin McGinn branded the extension overdevelopment on the site.
And he pointed out that a sunlight report had ruled that the addition to the house would block sunlight from half of the neighbouring garden, where the residents have a sunroom from 9am until 1pm every day.
Neighbour Derek Henderson urged the committee to reject the planning application, adding that the sunroom was an important part of the house.
And Mr McGinn questioned officers’ assessment that the impact of loss of sunlight would be minimal.
He said: “When you think about using your own garden over the last year, to have that removed because someone wants to develop the site next door, I think that impact needs to considered very seriously.”
Applicant Mujahid Nazir did not speak during the meeting, although he was in attendance.
Concerns were raised by objectors over the scale of the extension and fears that it could lead to the house being used as a house of multiple occupancy (HMO).
Ward councillor Kenny McLeod asked if it was possible to add a condition banning an HMO use but was advised it would not be competent.
Councillor Norman Hampshire, planning convenor, said he also believed that the extension was too big.
He said: “I think it is not a very appropriate scale of extension to the property and cannot support the officers’ recommendations.”
The committee voted unanimously to refuse planning permission on the grounds of overdevelopment. | [

Cannon Falls, MN
Getting to know John Peterson and Ferndale Farms and his masterful turkey operation that acknowledged a caring and nuanced understanding of animal husbandry and ecosystem function was love at first sight for Keller Crafted.
During the green pasture growing season the Petersons raise their flocks by utilizing rotational grazing management. Keller Crafted and Ferndale made a collaboration to celebrate the turkeys grown exclusively during this time called "Pasture Grazed."
Because of this artful approach, Ferndale produces slow growing turkeys with robust immune systems not needing any antibiotics or any other unnatural additives or interventions.
PASTURE GRAZED MANAGEMENT
Growing turkey on grass pasture slows down the growing process and because of the slow growth and the level of activity creates a fully mature bird that renders optimum flavor.
- Rotationally Grazed on Lush Pasture
- No Antibiotics Ever
- Humanely Handled by Experts
Turkeys are managed in a dynamic production model that raises turkeys in a free range environment when beneficial for bird and landscape and on lush pasture during the growing season.
Our pasture grazed turkey selections come from the summer flocks only.
Ferndale Farms is a 3rd Generation Family Farm owned and operated by the Peterson Family located in Cannon Falls Minnesota.
When Fern and husband Dale (Ferndale) started growing turkey on their Cannon Falls farm, they did it the only way they knew how — without shortcuts. 75 years and 3 generations later, that philosophy hasn’t changed. Rather than following the industrial turkey farming model, Peterson Farm stuck to their roots and followed the time-honored approach.
Today, a compassionate approach to flock management and regenerative grassland farming is still practiced in a dynamic dance between land steward farmer and mother nature. | [

What is in a smart home?
A smart home's devices are connected with each other and can be accessed through one central point—a smartphone, tablet or laptop. Door locks, televisions, thermostats, home monitors, cameras, lights, and even appliances such as the refrigerator can be controlled through one home automation system.
How do smart homes work?
Smart homes use smart devices (from lightbulbs to alarms and more) that connect to a network over Wi-Fi. These devices can then be controlled from anywhere, anytime using an app on your phone.
Why smart home is important?
Smart homes allow you to have greater control of your energy use, all while automating things like adjusting temperature, turning on and off lights, opening and closing window treatments, and adjusting irrigation based on the weather. | [

Rodney Rothman is no rookie in the comedy world. He wrote Grudge Match and 22 Jump Street, so with his Hollywood success comes freedom — he now has the ability to make just about whatever he wants. Naturally, when someone is given free reign in Hollywood, they try out a passion project, so Rothman’s reviving an old project near and dear to his heart: a wacky sci-fi he wrote years ago called The Something. On top of his formidable comedy style, he’ll be directing and writing jokes for a cast of comedic superstars including Seth Rogen, Zach Galifianakis, and Bill Hader.
Of course, this isn’t the first time Bill Hader and Seth Rogen have worked together — they shared the screen in Knocked Up, Superbad and Pineapple Express — all
minor huge hits.
So, what is The Something? In an interview with Collider way back in 2010, Rothman described the movie as follows:
“It’s the first time they’ve seen women in five years, and then sh*t just goes crazy.”
Extrapolating on that, the log line is basically: a crew of astronauts are floating around space for years, then they happen upon another ship (this is where the women come on). You can expect laughs, some inappropriate jokes, and a heartwarming third act in a theater relatively soon.

Since the hinge belongs to both rigid parts and its location is not influenced by the internal rotation, both parts contribute evidence which is integrated in our algorithm. Below we describe the algorithm in more detail. Assume that we have a database of flexible model molecules, each consisting of two rigid parts joined by a hinge at a known position. Given a target molecule, we want to find a large partial match of the target with some model molecule allowing both external rotation and translation and internal rotation at the hinge.
Otherwise, the move that results in the best solution value is applied to s, and the search continues. Since converging to a local optimum is very fast, the search can be repeated many times, each time starting from a random feasible solution. A feasible contact map alignment solution is identified by a pair of lists of the same size, (A, B), where A = (a1 <.. < ak ) are nodes from G1 and B = (b1 <.. < bk ) are nodes from G2. 1(a)). Our two local search algorithms differ only in the definition of the moves that generate a neighborhood.
As described before, ub is the value of the LP–relaxation., large) lower bounds as well. Any feasible solution gives a lower bound lb to the optimum. e. Genetic Algorithms and Steepest Ascent Local Search. A generic Genetic Algorithm (GA, [24, 16]) mimics an evolutionary process with a population of individuals that, by the process of mutation and recombination, gradually improve over time. For optimization problems, an individual is a candidate solution, mutation is a slight perturbation of the solution parameters, and recombination is a “merging” of two candidate solutions. | [

Living Universe is a visually spectacular, scientifically informed doco that imagines as a real future possibility an interstellar space mission discovering life light years beyond our solar system. Enthralling, inspiring, transcendent in its hope and optimism.
The Wife is a stagey but gripping drama featuring a superb performance from Glenn Close. Unmissable for this alone.
RBG is an understandably affectionate biography of 85yo Ruth Bader Ginsburg, the frequently dissenting liberal Justice in the conservatively weighted US Supreme Court, whose life-long legislative pursuit of gender equality has elevated her to icon status. The most inspiring and uplifting film of 2018. | [

Given two integer numbers X and Y. find the larger of X^Y and Y^X, or determine if they are equal.
Input : 2 3 Output : 3^2 We know 3^2 = 9 and 2^3 = 8. Input : 2 4 Output : Equal
A simple solution is calculate x^y by looping for y times, but if the values of x and y is too large it will cause overflow.
To solve the overflow problem, we can simplify the equation by taking log.
log(x^y) = y* log(x)
Now, this equation will not cause overflow and we can compare two values directly.
- Find the larger exponential among two exponentials
- Check if a larger number divisible by 36
- Smallest triangular number larger than p
- Minimum sum of the elements of an array after subtracting smaller elements from larger
- Larger of a^b or b^a (a raised to power b or b raised to power a)
- Find (1^n + 2^n + 3^n + 4^n) mod 5 | Set 2
- Find the value of max(f(x)) - min(f(x)) for a given F(x)
- Find the value of f(n) / f(r) * f(n-r)
- Find K such that |A - K| = |B - K|
- Find value of (1^n + 2^n + 3^n + 4^n ) mod 5
- Find value of (n^1 + n^2 + n^3 + n^4) mod 5 for given n
- Find 2^(2^A) % B
- Find N from the value of N!
- Find minimum x such that (x % k) * (x / k) == n | Set-2
- Find minimum x such that (x % k) * (x / k) == n

5 Foods You Should Know If You Live In The Northland
You would know by looking at me that I like food. Food has meaning to me, it's love when you cook, safety, fun, it can be many things.
There are foods from every area I have lived that I can only get there or it's known for being made there. I lived in Baton Rouge and they ate a lot of seafood, fried food, and crawdaddies. When you live in the Northland, there are foods here that we all know that if we brought it up to people from other areas they would give you a curious dog look.
1. Lefsa-Basically, this is a Norweigan Burrito. What you do is start with a bunch of potatoes and smash them into a white tortilla looking thing. Some people like to heat them up, some like to make them wraps (I do), and some people add sugar and cinnamon. The only difference from tortillas is that these are cut into triangles most of the time.
2. Perogies-I am not a big fan of these. I know a lot of Churches make money off these because people love these. It's almost like a handheld pot pie. I think they taste like soup pie, but you sucked all the liquid out of them. They are so dry and bland to me and taste like guilt.
3. Lutefisk-My Grandfather used to make these or have this in the house. This is offensive smelling and offensive tasting. In my mind, here's how you make Lutefisk. Take a pound of fish, leave it out on the sidewalk in the summer, then boil it and serve it. If that sounds good you probably like Haggus too.
4. Smoked Ciscos-I don't know what kind of fish Ciscos are, but I love these. My Dad used to buy these in Two Harbors and we would go to a rock beach somewhere up the shore and cook hot dogs over the fire, and some kind of fruit and roast marshmallows. Before the main course, we would eat smoked ciscos right out of the package. When I was a kid I thought they were expensive because of their golden skin.
5. Wild Rice Soup-Wild Rice Anything is from the Northland. Get a wild rice burger at Grandma's Restaurant, or Wild Rice Soup anywhere. Wild rice all by itself. When anyone goes to visit my Mom in Arizona, we have to smuggle cans of wild rice to her. I feel like she is a drug lord and I am supplying her. I always get taken out of line at the airport and my bag searched, and every time they laugh. I feel like I need a note on my bag, I HAVE CANS OF WILD RICE IN HERE. It's good stuff though, I could eat a gallon of wild rice soup. | [

- In MACROECONOMIC NEWS, the US, Europe and UK are all looking at ongoing high levels of inflation
- In CONSUMER/RETAIL NEWS, wage inflation, home working, rising second hand car prices and house price difficulties hitting Gen Z become the norm while Lidl joins Aldi in low prices commitment, Very has a very good Christmas, Games Workshop suffers and Boots attracts prospective buyers
- In EV NEWS, China car sales rise with Tesla doing well and VW not so much, while Rio Tinto moves to electric trains to haul iron ore
- In MISCELLANEOUS NEWS, Heathrow passenger numbers hit a record low and Darktrace rises
- AND FINALLY, I thought I’d mention the new version of Fresh Prince of Bel Air…
Inflation chat dominates the headlines again…
I will be launching the Watson’s Yearly TOMORROW at 5pm with a 2021 review/2022 preview webinar with Jake Schogger from the Commercial Law Academy. PLEASE CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP! You will need to register to attend this event.
High inflation is ‘severe threat’ to US jobs recovery, Jay Powell warns (Financial Times, Colby Smith) highlights an interesting direction from the Fed chief as he said in his Senate confirmation hearing yesterday that in order to power labour markets higher for longer “we are going to need price stability”. This comes at a time when an inflation report, due out today, is thought likely to point to inflation hitting an annualised rate of 7%, which would be the highest in 40 years! Powell signalled a willingness to increase interest rates more aggressively if necessary. * SO WHAT? * Jay Powell is definitely softening the ground for a rate rise. I thought it was quite interesting how he framed it, though – about inflation being potentially damaging to the labour markets – because a lot of the argument for keeping rates on hold has been about waiting to see what happens with employment. It’s a subtle shift from saying that inflation and labour markets are being looked at separately (i.e. don’t change interest rates because we want to prioritise employment) to now saying higher-for-longer inflation could HARM labour markets. I would have thought that this will ratchet up the pressure on the ECB in particular to raise rates.
Talking of which, Inflation in rich economies surges to a 25-year high (Financial Times, Valentina Romei and Martin Arnold) cites official data released yesterday which shows that inflation in the OECD group of developed nations
reached 5.8% in November, 1.2% higher than November 2020 and the highest rate since May 1996! This was largely driven by energy prices, which shot up by 28%, and food prices. Given this backdrop, Bundesbank’s new chief takes aim at Lagarde over inflation (Daily Telegraph, Russell Lynch) shows that Germany’s new central bank chief, Joachim Nagel, is not letting go of his opinion of inflation in Europe and said that the ECB need to do something about it. ECB chief Christine Lagarde didn’t rise to it, though, and just waffled on saying “People can trust that our commitment to price stability is unwavering”. In the meantime, consumers’ standard of living gets more and more expensive by the day.
Nearer home, Britain ‘about to suffer far worse price rises than rest of Europe’ (Daily Telegraph, Tim Wallace and Tom Rees) shows that Jari Stein, chief European economist at Goldman Sachs reckons that we’ll be worse off than Europe as the Europeans have already passed “peak inflation” reached in the final quarter of 2021 at 4.6% and that factors driving its rise, like Germany’s VAT increase, will drop out while other things, like wage inflation, are already losing steam. In contrast to that, he argues that we have yet to reach what he thinks will be a peak of 7% mainly because of the increase in the energy price cap. He also expects three interest rate increases this year in the UK, taking it to 1% by year-end versus the ECB, which is likely to keep interest rates on hold for this year and next. * SO WHAT? * It just seems to me like inflation keeps going up and when economists can’t justify it, they change the goalposts by fiddling around with their interest rate targets and what they’d be comfortable with. I’d argue that the ECB should have increased its interest rate YEARS ago after cutting them deeply during the global financial crisis of 2007/8, but they chickened out of that. It would be interesting to see what WOULD make them change, because if inflation reaching high after high after high doesn’t make them, will they EVER increase rates??
It’s still a candidates’ market but consumers face ongoing challenges while Lidl goes low, Very does very well, Games Workshop | [

It is not a pleasure to write about Rush Limbaugh and my guess is if you have found your way to this substack you really don’t want to read about him either.
But before you put him out of your mind forever please think about this:
In America’s long march to Donald Trump and its current state of Cold Civil War, Limbaugh was the representative of forces that are still rampant.
Sorry for using a Titanic analogy but Limbaugh was the visible tip of an iceberg that holed the ship of state below the waterline.
He was the frontman for revenge.
One of the inciting events of America’s slide to its present condition was the resignation of Richard Nixon. Avenging that event motivated self-styled “conservatives.” In their analysis of Nixon’s downfall, the “liberal” media - meaning the three major broadcast networks and the New York Times and Washington Post - was to blame for overturning the will of the people and creating the Watergate scandal out of nothing, thus ending Nixon’s presidency.
These conservatives concocted a persecution narrative of a liberal, vaguely socialistic, New York-based newsmedia that was shoving its world view down American throats. They were not satisfied by the measurable fact that most broadcast media in America was already “conservative”.
A single broadcaster: Paul Harvey had more listeners than any individual network television newscast and his daily audience in the tens of millions from coast to coast far exceeded the reach of the Times or the Post. Right-wingers ignored the fact that evangelical preachers dominated the air waves in the old Confederacy and Midwest. Their sermons were less about the Gospels and more about anti-communist political indoctrination. Their definition of “communist” was broad to the point of meaninglessness … except to their listeners.
And there were syndicated hard right television programs from high-brow, like William F. Buckley Jr.’s Firing Line, to low as low-brow gets, like Joe Pyne.
But no matter. The hard right felt dissemination of their political points of view was constrained by an FCC regulation called the Fairness Doctrine. The Doctrine required holders of broadcast licenses to “present controversial issues of public importance and to do so in a manner that was honest, equitable, and balanced.”
Throughout the seventies and early into Ronald Reagan’s first term, right-wing think tanks devoted some effort to figuring out how to overturn the Fairness Doctrine. Eventually Reagan appointed a man named Mark Fowler as head of the FCC. Fowler worked diligently and with bureaucratic subtlety to remove the Doctrine from the statute book.
At the same time this piece of Reaganism was in process, two other parts of his program were proceeding: de-regulation of media ownership rules and de-regulation of capital markets.
Cap Cities was an owner of small market radio and tv stations. The men who ran the company were not of a liberal bent. The company used mergers and acquisitions to grow itself rapidly and then, in the 1980s way, used leverage to buy the ABC network, with $3.5 billion of borrowed money. At the time ABC’s revenues were four times bigger than Cap Cities. Leverage is great if you can get some.
And while all this was going on, out in Sacramento California, Rush Limbaugh was a disk jockey spinning platters and making humorous right-wing chatter at KFBK in Sacramento CA. The DJ thing was an attempt to slide around Fairness Doctrine rules. He wasn’t discussing political issues, you see, he was joking about them.
He caught the ear of ABC radio exec Ed McLaughlin. In Limbaugh’s words, “He was one of us.”
The merger of Cap Cities and ABC came together in 1985, then the Fairness Doctrine was repealed in 1987 and within a year McLaughlin had rescued Rush from small market obscurity and brought him to New York, making him the linchpin of a package of radio talk from ABC delivered to a ready made network of 56 stations.
Very quickly the network grew to hundreds of stations taking the show. For this Limbaugh deserves much credit. Speaking as a professional broadcaster, I can say, Rush was a great broadcaster. Limbaugh had the gift of speaking intimately to the listener, making the listener feel like this was a private conversation.
In 1993, the BBC World Service sent me back to the US for a fortnight to explore the Midwest for a season of programs they were doing about America including one on Limbaugh. In just five years his show had become internationally infamous. Midway through the journey I spent a couple of days in Limbaugh’s hometown, Cape Girardeau, Missouri.
I spent too many hours on the road listening to right wing talk. Most of it was mere ranting by | [

This patch looks mostly alright to me -- thanks very much for getting rid of the temporary file, and I agree that the FOF code should have a suffix to distinguish it from HOP structures. Here are some very minor comments...
http://codereview.appspot.com/52058/diff/1/2 File yt/lagos/HaloFinding.py (right):
http://codereview.appspot.com/52058/diff/1/2#newcode175 Line 175: _fields = ["particle_position_%s" % ax for ax in 'xyz',"particle_velocity_%s" % ax for ax in 'xyz'] This line is too long, split it to the next one.
http://codereview.appspot.com/52058/diff/1/2#newcode404 Line 404: self.data_source.get_data(["particle_velocity_%s" % ax for ax in 'xyz']) This is redundant with the line above; additionally, we don't need particle_velocity until the write_out.

Dr. Wright’s Tip
“ROMANZA” is a great color during the day because it is not too flashy. In the day we want our makeup to be simple and natural and then as you go into the night, you can add some eyeliner to give it some spunk! To do this, make sure and use an eyeliner in brown or black and apply on both the upper and lower eyelids. You can smudge it a little for that softer look. Also, use a pale shimmer for your highlighter. If your skin is a “warm” color then go for highlighters that are pale gold or beige. If your skin is a “cool” color, then try a silver or pale pink. | [

The ideal summer rewetter
Use Hydraflo to effectively decrease water surface tension aiding the successful rewetting of soils in dry summer periods, eliminating localised dry sports and increasing the uniformity of wetting throughout the soil profile. By allowing for better water penetration and absorption, Hydraflo helps grow deeper stronger roots.
The ideal winter drainer
Hydraflo encourages free drainage from water logged soils in winter and during heavy rainfall. This inhibits surface moss, algae growth and soil borne pathogens. When water logged soils drains, air is allowed into the root sone enabling the plant to take up valuable nutrients. | [

Which of the optical sensors in operation on the three spacecraft currently en route to Mars (China's Tianwen-1, UAE's Emirates Mars Mission (Hope), USA's Mars 2020 (Perseverance)) could image one of the other spacecraft, with resolution more than one pixel, assuming a correctly aimed sensor or spacecraft?
I couldn't find technical details of Tianwen-1's (orbiter's?) optical navigation sensor.
The Hope orbiter's EXI imager has an angular resolution of 22 arc seconds, but it might be turned off during cruise.
The Perseverance rover is inside an aeroshell. Photos from Lockheed Martin show that it has at least one small circular window. I couldn't find details of optical instruments outside Perseverance, nor whether an interior instrument is aimed at such a window.
So it might come down to Tianwen-1's sensor's angular resolution and how densely packed this convoy ever becomes. | [

ANDREW LUDLOW’S is no ordinary ticker. An intricate tangle of tubes, cables and lasers occupying an entire room at his lab in Boulder, Colorado, it is one of the best timekeeping devices ever made. “It’s the Lamborghini of atomic clocks,” he says.
That isn’t to say it is fast. But Yb-2, as the clock is known, is precision engineered. In fact, it should measure out each passing second so precisely that it wouldn’t miss a beat for around 20 billion years – more than the age of the universe.
This is the stunning frontier of precision at which timekeeping now finds itself. Clocks such as Ludlow’s could spur on as yet unheard-of technological innovations. They could transform our understanding of the universe, revealing wrinkles in established laws of physics and variations in the fundamental constants of nature that would otherwise be impossible to detect. But for metrologists like Ludlow, they raise an even more fundamental question: is it time once again to redefine time?
That might like seem an odd thing to consider for what is a fundamental property of the universe. The flow of time is an enigma; many physicists even suggest it is just an illusion. But clock time is our own invention. We define its basic units – the hours, minutes and seconds that break up the day. They started out as subdivisions of the time it takes Earth to rotate around its axis. Indeed, when astronomer Christiaan Huygens invented the pendulum clock in the 17th century, a second became firmly established as 1/86,400 of a solar day, a factor derived from the division of the day into 24 hours, then 60 minutes per hour and finally 60 seconds per minute.
But Earth isn’t a dependable metronome. The duration of its rotation varies by microseconds daily and progressively slows ever so slightly, meaning a second gradually gets longer. That became a problem in the early 20th century, when experimental verification of quantum mechanics and the emergence of radio broadcasting required a steadier, more precise unit of time. It eventually arrived with the microwave atomic clock: a timepiece that ticks in harmony with the frequency of microwave radiation emitted from the rapid oscillations inside caesium atoms, where electrons hop back and forth between closely spaced energy levels.
The first microwave atomic clock was unveiled at the National Physical Laboratory (NPL) in Teddington, UK, in 1955. It was accurate to 1 second every 300 years, meaning two such clocks would fall out of sync by just one second every three centuries. It wasn’t long before such precision transformed the way we measure the basic unit of time. In 1967, representatives at the 13th General Conference on Weights and Measures in Paris officially redefined the second as “the duration of 9,192,631,770 periods of the radiation corresponding to the transition between the two hyperfine levels of the ground state of the caesium-133 atom”.
The new second was no longer or shorter than the old one. But the change did provide a much more precise definition of that duration, dramatically improving the extent to which we can be sure each second is the same as the next, and the one after that too.
It is a time standard that persists today, even if the accuracy of microwave atomic clocks has improved to the point that the best caesium clocks now keep time with an accuracy of 1 second in roughly 300 million years. And it is a measure that has served us well. The steady backbeat of the caesium atom’s vibration underpins all manner of modern technologies, from GPS and smartphones to the internet and electricity grids, all of which require exquisitely precise synchronisation.
But it is no longer the best we can do – not by a long way. Ludlow, a physicist at the National Institute of Standards and Technology’s (NIST) Physical Measurement Lab, is one of many researchers working on optical atomic clocks, a new generation of timepieces that promise to once again dramatically improve the precision with which we can measure time passing.
We have known for a long time that other atoms oscillate much faster than caesium. Strontium and ytterbium stand out because the electrons surrounding their nuclei have stable excited states, relatively unperturbed by potentially disruptive outside forces like temperature and electric and magnetic fields. The problem was always that their electrons transition between energy levels so fast that there was no easy way to count them.
That wrinkle was smoothed out in 1999 with a device called an optical frequency comb, which essentially translates the atomic oscillations measured in the optical range into microwave frequencies. For the first time, the rates at which optical clocks “tick” could be calibrated against one another and the standard set by the caesium atom.
“The current definition of a second is no longer the best we can do”
The technique sparked something of an arms race, with labs around the world competing to | [

13th Sunday in Ordinary Time, Year B
Wisdom 1:13-15; 2:23-24
Psalm 30:2, 4, 5-6, 11, 12, 13 (2a)
2 Corinthians 8:7, 9, 13-15
June 27, 2021
Why are we here today?
Taking the question literally, we are here to celebrate Mass. Going a little deeper, what is the point of celebrating Mass?
The first and primary point of celebrating Mass is not for own benefit. It is to praise God. We praise God for rescuing us from the evil one and the netherworld. We praise God for not acting in anger when we have sinned. We praise God for rescuing us from our sins through Jesus’ Crucifixion. We praise God for changing our “mourning into dancing,” giving us hope in the Resurrection.
We praise God for his help in the past and, with an “attitude of gratitude,” we trust God to help us in the future.
We praise God for bringing meaning to our lives. “God did not make death…he fashioned all things that they may have being.”
God created us to be “imperishable” in his own image. Death came, not through God, but through “the envy of the devil.” The death that God speaks of is the death of sin.
To live is to live in God. The death of sin separates us from God. Separation from God is a terrible thing. The woman in today’s gospel had been hemorrhaging for twelve years. She would have been seen as “unclean”, meaning she could not go to the Temple or have relations with her husband. She would have been separated from it all.
No doctor could help her. Hearing of Jesus, she goes to him with faith that He can heal her. She is indeed healed. Jesus tells her “your faith has saved you.” Healed, she would no longer be considered unclean. She was restored to her proper place.
We also see a great faith in Jesus from Jairus, a synagogue office. His daughter is dying. Jairus goes to Jesus for help. As he is talking with Jesus, Jairus hears that his daughter has died. What does Jesus do? He restores her life.
When we commit mortal sin Jesus can save us. Jesus was rich in divinity in Heaven but He became poor to be human like us so that through him we can be saved.
Jesus embraced “poverty” in emptying himself of his divinity so that we might become rich as He gives his life for us. This is Jesus’ gracious act for us.
Paul writes to the Corinthians inviting them to share in a “gracious act.” The act of which he speaks is a collection for the church in Jerusalem. He is calling them to offer their help to others.
We are called to help one another in our needs. Paul refers to Exodus 16:18 when he writes, “As it is written: Whoever had much did not have more, and whoever had little did not have less.”
Some may hear this and think it is calling for socialism. It is not. The Church does not call us to be socialism. You can read in the Catechism that the Church does not condemn the ownership of private property. In fact, it can a good motivator for us.
It is fine to own private property but not to the exclusion of others who do not have enough. When we have more than our basic needs, in loving our neighbor, we are called to do Corporal Works of Mercy to feed the hungry, give drink to the thirsty, and visit the sick (Matthew 25:31-46).
Are you the person in need or are you the person with surplus that God is calling to help others?
Sometimes we are in need. Sometimes we are the ones with means to help others.
Some people think happiness comes in having much material wealth to the point of hoarding all they can. We are created for love. We can find great joy when we are blessed with a surplus and use that surplus to help others. In doing so, we experience the love that we are created for.
This is my last weekend at St. Luke’s. While I have only been here for two years (and a lot has changed in two years, starting with COVID), I hope I have helped you come closer to God. That is all I want.
Now, as I leave, I pray for you to know what God’s plan is for you. I know (see Jeremiah 29:11) that God has a plan for each of you just as He has a plan for me. God has a plan for St. Luke’s.
May we have the grace we need to trust and follow God’s plan. | [

Tough Question, Guys: Are You Proud Of Your Body and Life?
Are you proud of the way you look and feel? If so, keep doing what you’re doing. But if you answer anything other than a resounding yes, you’re not alone. Keep reading.
For the past 6 months, we’ve spent hours interviewing the guys in our S2B coaching program. We wanted to find out why they chose to join S2B when they just as easily could have hired a local personal trainer, signed up at a Crossfit gym, or bought the latest fitness book to get in shape on their own. Some of these guys were complete beginners before they started the program. Some of ’em were already in decent shape. Others were even personal trainers and coaches. This post shares what we found and how it can help you become stronger, healthier, and more like the kind of guy you want to be.
What We’ve Learned…
For the past 6 months, we’ve spent hours interviewing the guys in our S2B coaching program. We wanted to find out why they chose to join S2B when they just as easily could have hired a local personal trainer, signed up at a Crossfit gym, or bought the latest fitness book to get in shape on their own.
Some of these guys were complete beginners before they started the program. Some of ’em were already in decent shape. Others were even personal trainers and coaches.
This post shares what we found and how it can help you become stronger, healthier, and more like the kind of guy you want to be.
“It was time for me to get it together…”
In our interviews we noticed two distinct patterns for why guys joined S2B:
1. Something significant happened in their lives in the past year.
Nearly every guy we talked with joined S2B after some sort of event or “change.” These were both positive and negative experiences, including:
- breaking off a relationship
- scoring a new job
- graduating college
- starting a new relationship
- being laid-off
- starting school
- having a kid
- getting engaged or married
- moving to a new place
- being dumped
- dealing with an injury
- switching careers
These “changes” often made each guy look at themselves more closely and evaluate where they stood in relation to other guys. It put a magnifying glass to their lives.
2. Most guys already knew what to do in the gym and kitchen, but were having trouble staying consistent.
Lots of guys we talked with had tried getting in shape on their own, some with decent success. They read fitness books and articles and followed different workout programs — but still felt like they weren’t where they should be. They just didn’t look the way they wanted to look.
After dozens of interviews, the central theme became clear:
Each guy wanted to build a body and life they could be proud of.
Sure, they wanted to build muscle and look great. But they also wanted to get their sh*t together. They wanted to feel confident, responsible, and in charge.
They were tired of being inconsistent, falling back into bad nutrition or workout habits, and feeling guilty about it.
They wanted to be in control of their own lives and build a body that made them feel like anything was possible.
Consistency Is the Solution — and the basis of S2B
These interviews helped me clarify, once and for all, what exactly it is that we do so differently:
In the S2B coaching program, we keep our clients accountable, help them stay consistent, and show them step-by-step how to build a body they can be proud of – and we do it through world-class coaching and by using habit- and workout- tracking technology.
And here’s the rub: this style of coaching is incredibly effective. Just take a look:
As each guy goes through the program, their body becomes an anchor, the one thing you can’t take away from them, the one thing they have control over when everything else is uncertain. It looks good. It feels good. It is good.
There are lots of workout books, articles, programs, and trainers. But the S2B Coaching Program is truly the only program designed to keep you consistent and give you all the healthy habits, personal coaching, and muscle-building workouts you need to build an impressive body and lead an awesome life.
3 Ways To Build a Body You’re Proud Of
Of course, we’d love to have you join the S2B Coaching Program, and if you feel like you need to be more consistent with your workouts and nutrition, I highly recommend it. You’ll love the program and what it can do for you.
But either way, pay close attention to the lessons the guys we interviewed shared:

While the shooting of an unarmed, young African American, Michael Brown, by a police officer in Ferguson, Missouri, is a tragedy no matter what the outcome of the investigations, including the one promised by President Barack Obama and Attorney General Eric Holder, many observers who have worked -- or continue to work -- in law enforcement complain about the media feeding frenzy. To them, too many news people inject themselves into the coverage and use a familiar "story template" that needs to be updated or cast aside.
To them, the news media have turned a local tragedy into a national circus of sorts that reinforces a number of stereotypes, among them the trigger-happy, racist police abusing and victimizing the hopeless inhabitants of minority neighborhoods where young people are guilty until proven innocent.
One can only speculate about what would have happened if it was the police officer in Ferguson who was killed by the black youth. However, there was a similar situation that occurred last month in which the cop was not only killed but the community actually erected a memorial to honor that young officer's killer. Unfortunately, the national news media chose to ignore the entire incident and if reporters did cover the killing they ignored the memorial erected for a cop-killer.
In an Examiner news story dated July 15, 2014, the following was revealed.
Residents of a New Jersey neighborhood erected a memorial in the aftermath of a cop-killing to honor an alleged drug-addicted murderer, not the young police officer, according to local news reports in mid-July.
During the weekend, when he responded to a burglary-in-progress call, Jersey City, N.J., Police Officer Melvin Santiago was the victim of a surprise attack in which he was fatally wounded by gunman Lawrence Campbell. Upon arriving at the crime scene, in front of a Walgreen's pharmacy, Officer Santiago's fellow police officers fired and killed the Campbell when he refused to drop his weapon.
In a shocking demonstration of lawless bravado, residents of that Jersey City African American neighborhood created a prominently displayed sidewalk memorial not in honor of the slain young rookie cop, but to honor his killer as hero.
"This memorial says more about the residents of the city than it does about the man who ended the life of a kid who wished to protect and serve the very people honoring his killer," said former New York police detective, Sid Franes, himself an African American lawman.
Some of the creators of the cop-killer memorial designed T-shirts that they taped to the wall on which neighborhood residents wrote messages in memory of the cop-killing Campbell.
The killer's widow, Angelique Campbell, told a New Jersey cable television news reporter that she wishes her husband killed more police officers. While she wasn't a witness to the shooting incident, she claimed that police officers were out to kill her husband. The cop-killer's wife hours later apologized for her harsh language.
Angelique later apologized for her comments, but I don’t see how you can walk back something like that.
While Jersey City detectives continue to investigate the shooting, they claim that they were told that upon stealing the murder weapon, Campbell told a friend to watch the 11 o'clock news to see how famous he'd become.
Full disclosure: The writer, Jim Kouri, is the former director of public safety at Saint Peter's University in Jersey City, N.J. Several members of the Jersey City Police Department worked for him at that Jesuit university. | [
