<p>We propose an algorithm to find piecewise linear skeletons of handwritten characters by using principal curves. The development of the method was inspired by the apparent similarity between the definition of principal curves (smooth curves which pass through the "middle" of a cloud of points) and the medial axis (smooth curves that go equidistantly from the contours of a character image). The central fitting-and-smoothing step of the algorithm is an extension of the polygonal line algorithm which approximates principal curves of data sets by piecewise linear curves. The polygonal line algorithm is extended to find principal graphs and complemented with two steps specific to the task of skeletonization: an initialization method to capture the approximate topology of the character, and a collection of restructuring operations to improve the structural quality of the skeleton produced by the initialization method. An advantage of our approach over existing methods is that we optimize the skeleton graph by minimizing an intuitive and explicit objective function that captures the two competing criteria of smoothing the skeleton and fitting it closely to the pixels of the character image. We tested the algorithm on isolated handwritten digits and images of continuous handwriting. The results indicate that the proposed algorithm finds a smooth medial axis of the great majority of a wide variety of character templates and substantially improves the pixelwise skeleton obtained by traditional thinning methods.</p>

Levels of adiponectin, in contrast to leptin, negatively correlate with adiposity. Adiponectin functions to counter the metabolic program associated with obesity and hyperleptinemia by modulating glucose metabolism, increasing fatty acid oxidation and insulin sensitivity, and decreasing production of inflammatory cytokines. The possible mechanisms through which adiponectin exerts anticancer effects may include increasing insulin sensitivity, and decreasing insulin/IGF-1 and mTOR signaling via activation of AMPK.

Cramer’s suggestion: Gather all the heads of Citigroup, Wells Fargo, JPMorgan Chase, Morgan Stanley, Goldman Sachs and Bank of America and offer to guarantee their debt, at least until the markets settle. Let these banks pay off their debt with government money, and guarantee their accounts.
The only stipulation would be that the banks had to start lending again – to the tune of $100 billion a piece. To make this easier, the government would provide the money. And the loans would go only to corporations in desperate need of cash and potential homeowners. (Hedge funds can fail, Cramer said. This is about Main Street.) That way the engine under this market – credit – would start to flow again, and we could see a turnaround.
The last piece of Cramer’s plan would be for these larger banks to swallow up their weaker counterparts, those with bonds trading as if they were about to fail. Take the deposits and sell the troubled assets to TARP.
This same type of private-sector coordinated effort worked in 1987. A group of brokerages put in simultaneous buy orders to prop up the market on Terrible Tuesday (obviously, the day after the Black Monday market crash).
That same kind of deal is needed now, Cramer said, and it has to at least look like Washington had nothing to do with it. People just don’t trust the feds these days.

The Worldmap Panel is a tile map of the world that can be overlaid with circles representing data points from a query.
Data points are linked to locations on the map by matching part of the metric name to a key in the set of ‘Location Data’.
Included location data:
- Countries (2 letter codes)
- Countries (3 letter codes)
- US states
- Probes (a selection of cities)
This works by matching country codes (like US or GB or FR) or US state codes (TX or NY) to a node or a wildcard in a metric namespace. If there is a match in the list of countries or states then a circle will be drawn at the location.
The size of the circle depends on the value of the matched metric. Circle size is relative e.g. if you have 3 countries with values 1, 2 and 3 or 100, 200 and 300 then you will get one small circle, one medium circle and one large circle.
Use the aliasByNode function to point to the field containing the country code. See the image below for an example of a graphite query.
Map Visual Option Settings¶
|Center:||This settings configures the default center of the map. There are 5 centers to choose from or you can choose a custom center..For a custom center there are two fields: latitude and longitude. Examples of values are 37.09024, -95.712891 for the center of the US or 55.378051, -3.435973 for Great Britain.|
|Initial Zoom:||The initial zoom factor for the map. This is a value between 1 and 18 where 1 is the most zoomed out.|
|Min Circle Size:|
|This is minimum size for a circle in pixels.|
|Max Circle Size:|
|This is the maximum size for a circle in pixels. Depending on the zoom level you might want a larger or smaller max circle size to avoid overlapping.|
|Unit:||The unit is shown in the popover when you hover over a circle. There are two fields the singular form and the plural form. E.g. visit/visits or error/errors|
|Show Legend:||Shows/hide the legend on the bottom left that shows the threshold ranges and their associated colours.|
Map Data Options¶
There are four location data options for the worldmap panel:
|countries:||This is a list of all the countries in the world. It works by matching a country code (US, FR, AU) to a node alias in a time series query.|
|The same as above, but with 3 letter codes (USA, FRA, AUS).|
|states:||Similar to countries but for the states in USA e.g. CA for California|
|probes:||This is a selection of cities around the world.|
City keys included in probes
taipei london los-angeles new-jersey portland south-carolina sydney charleroi frankfurt new-york san-francisco seattle singapore amsterdam chicago miami paris sao-paulo silicon-valley tokyo atlanta dallas omaha
You can choose an aggregation here: avg, total etc.
Thresholds control the colour of the circles.
If one value is specified then two colours are used. For example, if the threshold is set to 10 then values under 10 get the first colour and values that are 10 or more get the second colour.
The threshold field also accepts 2 or more comma-separated values. For example, if you have 2 values that represents 3 ranges that correspond to the three colours. For example: if the thresholds are 70, 90 then the first colour represents < 70, the second colour represents between 70 and 90 and the third colour represents > 90. | [

Spreading A Quality Message
Being the world’s largest soybean customer has its advantages. China’s 90 million metric tons (3.3 billion bushels) per year soy appetite means every soybean-producing country has their eyes on China. But not all soybeans are created equal.
Several South Dakota farmer leaders are in China meeting with soybean processors and feed companies promoting the quality of soybeans produced by South Dakota farmers and purchased through ports in the Pacific Northwest. The farmers are working to make South Dakota soybeans stand out in a crowded field.
South Dakota’s sizeable soybean crop and proximity to rail and port service means South Dakota soybeans can reach Southeast Asia the fastest of any U.S. state. Delivery reliability and quality are front of mind for many of the companies the growers are visiting.
“They’re interested in learning about our crop size, what we had for yields and what we’re expecting this year,” says Dawn Scheier, a farmer from Salem. “They’re also interested in how we store our beans. They’re learning from us how we use good storage on our farms so we can keep our soybeans in good condition and deliver a quality product to them.”
Research has shown that even though soybeans grown in warmer regions like South America may have higher crude protein, soybeans from northern climates, like South Dakota, have a better balance of essential amino acids. That is important to animal feeders. In most instances, buyers aren’t making the connection between amino acids and soybean quality, but momentum is growing.
Dachan Great Wall is a diversified company based in Taiwan, but has enterprises in China and several other countries. Dachan Great Wall operates four food companies, has eight poultry slaughter facilities and 15 feed mills. Total annual production of poultry, swine and aquaculture feed tops 1.5 million metric tons.
South Dakota farmers toured Dachan Great Wall’s feed mill in Shenyang, which produces over 300,000 tons of feed each year, utilizing large amounts of soybean meal for fish feed, hog rations and poultry feed. Purchasing Manager Weng Wei said while she knows animal nutritionists formulate their livestock rations based on amino acids, she buys soybean meal for the company based on crude protein, because that is the only information they have to define meal’s value.
South Dakota farmer leaders are working to change the way soybean quality is defined. Moving from a crude protein value to one centered around amino acid balance would help South Dakota soybeans move to the head of the class. | [

Jazz Soul Hard Bop
'At Club Baby Grand' is a live album by American jazz organist Jimmy Smith featuring performances recorded at Club Baby Grand in Wilmington, Delaware in 1956 and originally released in 2 volumes.
This is the organist at his raw, jawdropping best. You really do get the feeling of what those original jazz fans and curiosity seekers must have felt when first going to a Jimmy Smith show - the Charlie Parker of the organ. Also make no mistake, this is the Jimmy Smith show, and guitarist Thornel Schwartz and drummer Donald Bailey are simply along for the ride. Smith is bursting out with amazing rapid runs on the B-3, filling the air from one end of the room to the other as only he could.

Though much of the United States is accustomed to “falling back” and “springing forward” each year, some states hope to do away with the biannual practice of adjusting the clocks by one hour.
In Florida, the Sunshine Protection Act that went into effect in July 2018 would allow the state to remain in Daylight Saving Time (DST) year-round.
Although Florida Gov. Rick Scott signed the act into law, Congress has the final say on whether it will take effect.
If the change does happen, Florida would be the only state on the Atlantic coast that would remain an hour ahead of the rest of the Eastern Time Zone during winter, according to the Orlando Sentinel.
However, the act has yet to receive the required congressional approval, so Florida’s clocks will fall back on Sunday, Nov. 4, along with most of the rest of the U.S. Arizona and Hawaii do not observe DST.
In California, a “yes” vote for Proposition 7 would mean a permanent change to DST. If passed, it would still require a two-thirds vote in the state legislature and federal government approval, according to KTLA 5 News.
Some New England states, including Maine, New Hampshire, Massachusetts and Rhode Island, have also considered the idea of keeping their clocks on the same time throughout the year.
Winter sunsets occur quite early in this region of the U.S. For example, the sun starts to disappear below the horizon in Maine before 4 p.m. between Thanksgiving and Christmas, which is an hour earlier than sunset in Detroit during the same period, the New York Times reported.
In November 2017, a special commission in Massachusetts voted to endorse a report which stated that a year-round shift to DST “could have positive benefits” but added that such a change should be regional, according to the New York Times.
Earlier that year in May, a bill cleared the Maine Senate that allowed voters to determine in a statewide referendum whether the state moves an hour ahead to Atlantic Standard Time, which is the equivalent of staying on DST all year long.
The bill stated that the vote would only happen if neighboring New Hampshire and Massachusetts were also on board with the change.
Across the Atlantic Ocean, a recent public survey revealed that 80 percent of European citizens would prefer to do away with changing the clocks twice annually, and the European Commission has recommended that nations of the European Union remain on DST for the entire year.
The change won’t go into effect until all member nations and the European Parliament approve new legislation, Travel + Leisure reported.
Daylight Saving Time drawbacks
“It appears that the primary reason some voters, activists and legislators seek to get rid of Daylight Saving Time is that it is inconvenient and annoying, and there has never been conclusive evidence that it is worth the trouble,” said Mises Institute Communications Director Ryan McMaken, an expert in state policies and their economic impacts.
“Indeed, studies over the past decade in places as diverse as Australia and Indiana have shown that DST doesn’t lead to less energy consumption — as DST’s advocates have long claimed,” McMaken told AccuWeather.
On the other hand, McMaken added, some studies have shown that DST leads to significant health problems, including higher incidences of strokes, as well as issues with fatigue and a heightened risk of car accidents.
“These problems are related to the fatigue and lack of alertness that results from the time changes involved in switching back and forth from DST,” McMaken said.
The time changes impact our circadian rhythms of being asleep and awake, but they can also affect the rhythmic pattern of our blood pressure, according to Robert Soler, former NASA scientist and founder of BIOS Lighting.
“When we wake up at a time too early, it puts a lot of strain on our heart. As we ‘spring forward,’ we see an uptick of heart attacks,” Soler told AccuWeather.
McMaken noted that much of the debate surrounds the issues with changing the clocks twice per year and not the problems of DST itself.
“Were each jurisdiction to choose a time and just stick with it, we’d likely not hear anyone mention DST ever again; it’s the switching that causes most of the problems,” McMaken said.
Choosing a specific time for each populated area, as is done with time zones, has always been a largely human invention somewhat designed to match up the time on the clock with the natural human patterns that form around sunshine or lack thereof, according to McMaken.
“Adopting DST full time would likely accomplish the same thing as totally getting rid of it — avoiding the problems of the time changes that have never been shown to have any substantial benefits,” he said. | [

IMA on-line Fast Conveyor Analyzer (FCA) is used in sensing coarse primary crushed and/or fine crushed ore before it enters the grinding mills and concentrator. The role of the FCA is to fast track the ore grade and type for optimum processing by delivering immediate feedback of ore grade to loaders at the muck pile. The information is also fed forward for process optimization few hours before the ore enters mills and concentrator. Loading wrong ore type or waste rock is thus avoided, and ore blending is optimized, and different minerals can be treated with optimum and sustainable way. This reduces waste rock dilution and increases mill through put and metal recovery in the concentrator. Further ore losses can be reduced by more accurate reactive loading. All this improves mine economy and reduces mining costs. | [

Should All Patients With Early-Onset Kidney Cancer Undergo Comprehensive Genetic Risk Assessment?
Posted: Tuesday, January 11, 2022
According to Maria I. Carlo, MD, of Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, New York, and colleagues, there are limited data regarding the spectrum of germline mutations and clinical associations in patients with early-onset renal cell carcinoma (RCC). The results of a retrospective analysis, which were published in the journal European Urology Oncology, revealed that germline pathogenic or likely pathogenic variants are reported at high frequencies in this population.
“We found a high prevalence of mutations in genes that increase the risk of cancer in both kidneys and other organs for patients and their at-risk family members,” the investigators commented. “The high frequency of germline mutations in patients with early-onset RCC supports both the NCCN and American Urological Association [AUA] guideline recommendations regarding genetic counseling for patients with early-onset RCC.”
The investigators focused on 232 patients who underwent germline testing between February 2003 and June 2020. Of this population, 50% had non–clear cell histology; this group included patients with unclassified (12.1%), chromophobe (9.7%), fumarate hydratase–deficient (7%), papillary (6.6%), and translocation-associated (4.3%) RCC. Metastatic disease was reported in 43.5% of patients. A total of 17.7% of the study population was found to harbor germline pathogenic or likely pathogenic variants; a total of 9.1% were in an RCC-associated gene and 8.6% were in a non–RCC-associated gene. DNA damage repair genes, such as BRCA1/2, ATM, and CHEK2, were mutated in 7.3% of patients.
Bilateral or multifocal renal tumors, non–clear cell histology, and additional extrarenal primary malignancies seemed to be associated with the presence of pathogenic or likely pathogenic variants in RCC. The incidence rates of pathogenic or likely pathogenic variants in RCC-associated and non–RCC-associated genes were 0% and 9.9%, respectively, in patients with a solitary clear cell RCC.

African leaders have promised to establish a continent-wide regime to buy medicines at this weekend’s annual African Union summit in Addis Ababa, but momentum towards a pan-African medicines agency remains stalled.
In a statement on Monday (19 February), the Africa Centres for Disease Control and Prevention (Africa CDC), announced the creation of a pooled African medicines procurement mechanism, promising that this could drive “a new era of predictable demand for African manufacturers, empowering them to plan for the long-term and establish a robust market worth over $50bn [€46bn].”
“The decision means the creation of a robust market for manufacturers and ensures the health security of all Africans. This will be the second independence of Africa,” added Africa CDC director feneral Dr Jean Kaseya.
The move is the latest step towards a more harmonised regime for producing medicines across the African continent, a project that the European Commission has promised to support as part of a drive towards African ‘health sovereignty’.
The AU has set itself a target that by 2040, 60 percent of vaccines used in Africa will be produced locally.
Currently less than one percent of vaccines are manufactured in Africa.
Production and industrial capacity became a hot topic during the Covid-19 pandemic. South African President Cyril Ramaphosa and others accused the EU of “vaccine nationalism” after the bloc was slow to make good on its pledge to release surplus vaccines to African states. This was compounded when the EU joined forces with the United States to oppose a proposal by India and South Africa at the World Trade Organization to partially waive the agreement on intellectual property rights on vaccines to allow Covid shots to be produced at low cost.
In 2021, the European Commission announced that it would provide financial and technical support for an African Medicines Agency and pharmaceutical sector, including three vaccine hubs in Africa that could eventually become pharmaceutical production facilities.
German pharmaceutical giant BioNTech SE has also agreed to manufacture vaccines at sites in Rwanda and Senegal.
The AMA would be an AU agency intended to facilitate the harmonisation of medical regulation across the continent, modelled on the EU’s European Medicines Agency.
However, the push towards an AMA has been held up by the failure of over half of the continent’s governments to ratify the treaty to establish it.
“To date, 27 countries have ratified the treaty, an important achievement that warrants celebration,” said members of the African Medicines Agency Treaty Alliance in a statement released during the summit. “However, the ratification and deposit of instruments by all 55 member states is imperative.”
South Africa and Nigeria, the continent’s two largest economies, are among the group of 18 states who yet to sign the AMA treaty.
Earlier this month, EU health commissioner Stella Kyriakides said that the EU was committed to “fully-fledged African health sovereignty,” and that the bloc had mobilised €1.3bn for the production of vaccines across Africa. | [

Mumbai: Actor-producer Ajay Devgn believes that his home production ‘Toonpur Ka Superhero’ is technically as advanced as any Hollywood film. Directed by Kireet Khurana, the film is being promoted as India’s first 3-D animation film. Ajay plays a superhero in the film which is slated to release this Christmas.
Talking to reporters about the film, the actor said, “‘Toonpur Ka Superhero’ is technically as advanced as any other top line film in Hollywood. We have made sure that the film opens a new chapter in animation industry in India and shows the world the technical craft and expertise that Bollywood has achieved over the years."
As a producer, the two time National Award winning actor has always made films which have “out of the box” concepts. His films, ‘Raju Chacha’, ‘U, Me Aur Hum’, ‘All The Best: Fun Begins’ have done relatively well. Now its time for India’s first live action - 3D animation combination feature film to hit the screens.
And to give stiff competition to Ajay’s Hollywood styled ‘Toonpur Ka Superhero’ is Akshay starrer ‘Tees Maar Khan’ which is due for release this week.
Now, whether or not Ajay’s technically advanced film of Hollywood standards manages to impress Bollywood fans is something we’ll have to wait and watch. | [

GOLFING star Tony Jacklin is helping to design a major redevelopment at Magnolia Park.
The two-time major winner, who captained Europe to three successive Ryder Cup victories, is lending his expertise to a project which will see the construction of a par three championship course.
The 70-year-old was on site last week to oversee the progress.
He said: “I have been an advocate of par three golf for many years, which is why I am the ambassador for the Farmfoods British Par 3 Championship. I believe it is the future for golf.
“Alan (Pither, owner) and the team at Magnolia Park have a great vision for the future and want to provide its members with the best golfing facilities, and for me to join that team is a privilege.
“I can’t wait to get started.”
Alongside the course development, Magnolia Park are building a 30-room hotel, including a Tony Jacklin-branded clubhouse bar, as well as lodges and staff accommodation for the 70 new jobs created.
It is due to be completed by 2016 and Pither said: “I’m excited about the opportunity to work with a golfing icon such as Tony Jacklin who I think will be a great asset to Magnolia Park throughout the relationship.”

Can you paint over high gloss with high gloss?
High-gloss finishes are typically both shiny and slick.
This makes their surface extremely hard for additional coats of paint to stick to.
While it is possible to paint over a high-gloss surface with semigloss enamel, you will need to first prepare the surface in order to gain satisfactory results..
How do you paint with high gloss enamel paint?
How Do You Paint with High-Gloss Paint?The surface must be flawless. … Primer is absolutely essential.Sand before your finish coat, then clean the surface thoroughly (no dust should be left behind!).Multiple, thin topcoats need to be applied as well.Applying high-gloss paint with a brush is very difficult.
How much do you need to sand gloss before painting?
Use 240-grade sandpaper (wrapped around a sanding block, where possible) to put a key onto the surface so the undercoat will adhere to it.
Can I paint gloss over Matt?
Yes. It is also possible to paint flat, satin or semigloss over gloss, too, with the correct surface preparation. The key to a good adhesion is to make the intended surface as willing as possible to “grab” whatever paint you are applying. This means the surface needs to be clean and be dull(ish).
Can you undercoat over gloss?
Firstly, your new wood will need to be primed with a good quality primer. Then you can undercoat and top coat. The old gloss surfaces will need to be sanded down to remove imperfections and provide a key for the new paint. Once sanded, clean and the undercoat and then topcoat.
Can you paint over enamel paint?
Contrary to popular belief, you can apply latex paint over enamel. But you must do the required preparation work first to avoid peeling paint in the furture. Clean, dull, dry and prime the enamel surface before you paint. … You can use either latex or oil-based primer.
How do you paint over gloss enamel with acrylics?
After that, use sandpaper to remove the top glossy layer and to create a smooth surface for painting. Apply latex primer over the enamel paint to bond the surface on couple thin layers. Make sure every layer is dry before applying the next one. After the coating is completely dry you can paint over with acrylic paint.
How can I paint over high gloss without sanding?
This is how to paint over gloss:It’s important to have clean and grease-free surfaces to paint on. We used sugar soap to wipe down the area and then let it dry thoroughly.Then, we primed the area with this Super Grip Primer. We only needed one coat of primer, as it adhered to the gloss paint really well.That was it.
What paint can you use to paint over gloss paint?
You can use oil-based, water-based latex, acrylic, or any other type of paint to paint over the gloss paint because the surface has been sanded and prepared. | [

Jonathan Cowie, editor of the online journal Concatenation, commissioned me to write the first version of last week’s article in the Autumn of 2022, with the option of delaying it till Spring this year, which I had to take due to other commitments. He sent me an illustration from another publication, comparing launch costs for vehicles at the top of the US range, past, present and future, and asked me to expand it into a full comparison of all the launchers currently available. It proved to be a much taller order than he imagined, bordering on impossible. When he said, ‘What would have been good is: Year: Booster: US$ valued at a defined year (the same year for all boosters) per kg.’. it might have been good in theory, but it’s not attainable in practice.
A minor point is that the USA is not on the metric system, and since they dominate the market, launch prices are normally quoted in dollars per pound. The conversion to kilograms is easy enough, as long as it’s not made twice (the error which doomed Mars Polar Lander), and I did it at Jonathan’s request, but the resulting table is not compatible with most other published lists. For the Ariane entries, the situation was the opposite: payload masses (or ‘throw weights’, as they’re known in the business) were already in kilograms, but the prices were quoted in euros.
Also, in many cases up-to-date data is simply not available. Interestingly, quite a few of the websites had been updated since the end of February 2023, where previously they were 3-7 years out of date. I suspect that was because the whole field of launch provision was reacting to the presence of dynamic new kids on the block. But even then, the prices quoted came mostly from Wikipedia and many of them were dated, often quoted ‘as of 2020’ and in at least one case ‘as at 2016’. There were still no costs quoted for China’s Long March V, because so far it’s not been used for any commercial payloads, nor for Orbex and Skyrora at the other end of the payload mass scale, even in reply to my email queries. Trying to bring them all to a single year, and factoring in inflation, would be a huge undertaking. Thinking about it, I realised that for the whole of the 1970s and beyond, prices were routinely quoted in 1970 US dollars, because it was so convenient – everything could be compared directly to Saturn V, still the largest rocket ever built and one of the most successful, which had almost achieved cost-effectiveness, the point at which the cost per launch began to go down, when averaged over the whole programme. And then all the other interacting variables that I mentioned last week come into play. It was no coincidence that the example table Jonathan had sent me compared only big boosters, all vertically launched, all with some combination of the same propellants, and crucially, all from the same launch site, Kennedy Space Center.
In any case, like-for-like comparison in terms of dollars per kilogram or pound over the whole range of available boosters was unworkable. To take two extremes, the maximum payload of Richard Branson’s Launcher One was 300 kilograms. There’s no way you can take the price of that per kilogram and relate it to the corresponding figure for the much larger Delta IV Heavy. A payload as small as that could only go on Delta IV as a subsidiary payload, and what portion of the Delta IV cost it took up would depend on what else it was launching. And there’s no point in working out the Launcher One cost of a 5-ton communications satellite because it couldn’t carry it. I discovered that the cost per kilo of air-launches is actually very high, but that’s because the air-launched payloads are very small and what their owners are paying for is flexibility of launch site, choice of destination orbit, and above all how fast a launch can be provided. In the mid-1980s, Prof. Gerard O’Neill’s Earth resources company went bankrupt after he built his satellite, because he couldn’t get a shared launch before the money ran out.
In addition, the figures in the table below represent the cost per kilogram of a launch using full payload capability, which will often not be the case, depending on what the payload is and what it’s for.
To take a couple of extremes again, consider a big solar sail (Fig. 1) or a prototype solar power satellite. Because it was so thin, the solar sail illustrated packed up really small (Fig. 2), but one for a full-size interplanetary mission could be much larger – even when packed for launch, it could be so large that it needed the whole payload fairing of something like Atlas V. The booster would have unused payload capability but | [

The department is a lively community that is recognised internationally as one of the top centres for research and teaching in development studies.
Podcast of Annual Elisabeth Colson Lecture by Alessandro Monsutti Now Available
A podcast of the RSC's annual Elizabeth Colson Public Lecture, States, Sovereignties and Refugees: A View from the Margins?, delivered by Professor Alessandro Monsutti, is now available.
Drawing from his research with Afghan refugees living in the diaspora, Professor Monsutti outlined a world witnessing shifting sovereignties in which the lines between the nation-state and transnational actors were blurred, and displaced people could increasingly be viewed as agents of their own lives rather than the passive victims seen from a state-centric perspective.
The lecture was delivered on June 6 at the Oxford Museum of Natural History.
Professor Monsutti is Research Director at the Programme for the Study of Global Migration, Associate Professor at the Department of Anthropology and Sociology of Development, Graduate Institute of International and Development Studies, Geneva and Research Associate, Refugee Studies Centre, University of Oxford. | [

All-new Lexus NX now available
Second generation Lexus NX goes on sale locally
Lexus have launched the second generation NX, their mid size luxury SUV. This model is said to signify a new chapter for the Lexus brand as it heralds a new direction in design, powertrains and performance as well as the connection between the driver and machine through the Lexus Driving Signature.
The NX also debuts a new multimedia platform that takes connectivity, information and convenience to the next level and benefits from the scope and functionality of the next generation Lexus Safety System as well as a variety of innovative driver assistance systems.
Lexus believe that the new NX will play a defining role in shaping the future of the Lexus brand in South Africa. The original NX, introduced in 2014, became one of the best-selling Lexus models, attracting many new customers to the brand.
Model line up
The range starts with the Lexus NX 250 EX which features Lexus first technologies such as safe exit assist incorporating new e-latch electrically activated door handles, this technology detects cyclists or vehicles passing close to the vehicle and keeps the door closed to avoid a collision.
Other ground-breaking technologies include Intersection Turn Assist and emergency steering assist. This is coupled with a pre-collision system featuring pedestrian and daytime cyclist detection, parking support brake with obstacle and vehicle detection, blind-spot monitor, dynamic radar active cruise control and lane tracing assist.
The NX 250 EX grade is fitted as standard with 18-inch alloy wheels, LED headlamps with automatic high-beam assist, dual-zone climate control as well as power adjustable and heated front seats. The human centric Tazuna cockpit concept includes a 14-inch touch-display, DAB+ digital radio, “Hey Lexus” natural speech recognition and wireless smartphone compatibility.
Lexus will launch the new NX with two engine options. The 2.5-litre normally aspirated EX grade power plant offers 152kW and 239Nm and is paired to an eight-speed automatic transmission with two-wheel drive.
The 2.4 litre turbocharged engine in the F Sport derivative boasts 205kW and 430Nm. It too is paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission but power delivery is via all four wheels.
Specification highlights on the F-Sport model include 20-inch alloy wheels, tri-beam LED headlamps with an adaptive high-beam system, heated and ventilated front seats, a panoramic view monitor, opening and closing panoramic sunroof and F Sport-exclusive styling elements. The NX F Sport features dark chrome exterior details and a unique F Sport design mesh grille. New front and rear bumper designs with larger side vents cut into the bumper.
The Tazuna cockpit concept has been further elevated in the F Sport grade with an expansive 14.0-inch touch display, satellite navigation, high-grade digital instrument cluster and a colour head up display with touch capacitive steering wheel controls. A 17-speaker Mark Levinson sound system, digital rear-view mirror and leather trim upholstery add to the premium feel as do a leather-covered F Sport steering wheel, leather trimmed shift knob, eight-inch TFT colour display, aluminium pedals and footrest.

CORDOVA (AP) -- A 40-year-old woman is accused of stabbing her boyfriend on a fishing vessel in Prince William Sound after he refused to dock in Cordova and buy her alcohol.
Ann Atwood was charged with assault and is being held at the Cordova jail pending a transfer to Anchorage
She is charged with stabbing Dan Pettit, 46, as he lay in bed on board the Midnight Sun. The boat was anchored along Spike Island near the Cordova harbor.
Pettit suffered a 4-inch wound in the lower right side of his back.
''The defendant asked Pettit to take her to town to buy alcohol,'' according to a criminal complaint against Atwood. ''Pettit told the defendant that she was not going anywhere because he had to go commercial fishing at 5:30 in the morning. Pettit stated the defendant then replied that he wasn't going anywhere either and stabbed him in the back with a filet knife.''
Atwood had consumed several beers prior to the stabbing, the complaint said.

More budget puzzling fun from Suzak
Vertex is another take on the puzzle genre in the G.G. Series and like Energy Chain it's a competent and fairly original concept, but not necessarily an addictive one. Players move a small glowing green dot at the bottom which is projecting a guide line to the top of the screen. The object is to press buttons to light up the correct number of darkened vertices.. | [

Those are all valid points. But they do not constitute the fundamental objection to government support for the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. Let me note here that the term “public broadcasting” is a euphemism that hides an important fact. In actuality, all broadcasting is public: it is produced by members of the public, paid for by members of the public, and consumed by members of the public. What is misleadingly called “public broadcasting” is actually coercive, tax‐funded broadcasting. Even if all the programming supported was unobjectionable, there would remain an incontrovertible case against CPB, namely, that subsidies to broadcasting fall outside the proper scope of government and, in particular, the enumerated powers delegated to the federal government by the U.S. Constitution. In other words, the appropriation of money to the Corporation is flagrantly unconstitutional.
Determining the constitutionality of any given government act is not solely a matter for the Supreme Court. Every member of Congress takes an oath to uphold the Constitution. That oath has a very specific meaning. It obligates every member of Congress to ask before every vote on every bill, “Did the Constitution delegate to the national government the power embodied in this legislation?” If the answer is no, it should be rejected.
This approach to legislation was the one used by all three branches of the federal government for more than one hundred years after the founding of the Republic. Much well‐intended legislation was defeated after it was pointed out that the implied power was nowhere to be found in the Constitution. For example, in 1794 James Madison opposed an appropriation of relief funds because, as he put it, he couldn’t “lay [his] finger on that article of the Federal Constitution which granted a right to Congress of expending, on objects of benevolence, the money of their constituents.” That approach was not a mere custom to be outgrown. It is logically entailed in the very idea of a constitution. The primary purpose of that document was to define, circumscribe, and limit the powers of the national government. Had that not been the purpose, there would have been no need for the Constitution beyond setting up the branches. But the document did not merely establish the branches. It said what each of those branches could do. And that meant there were things they could not do. The idea of limited government is intrinsic to the Constitution. There is no way to get around that fact.
According to the federal budget, the Congress provides taxpayer money to the Corporation for Public Broadcasting so that it may give grants to “qualified public television and radio stations to be used at their discretion for purposes related primarily to program production and acquisition.” It also “supports the production and acquisition of radio and television programs for national distribution [and] assists in the financing of several system‐wide activities, including national satellite interconnection services.” No one can reasonably oppose the objective sought by the creation and funding of the Corporation: the support of broadcasting. But the desirability of the objective of legislation is not the test imposed on the Congress by the Constitution. The test is much tougher. That test is: Where in Article I is the Congress empowered to transfer money from the one group of citizens to another for the purpose of supporting broadcasting? In the days of the Founding Fathers, there was of course no broadcasting; but there were newspapers, theater, and other forms of entertainment. And yet, the framers did not authorize the national government to subsidize those things because in their view it would have been outside the scope of a properly limited government. That is how you should view the appropriation for the Corporation for Public Broadcasting.
Why did the framers see support for newspapers and entertainment as outside the proper scope? The most obvious reason is that they believed that government existed to protect the people’s rights and to maintain the peace. It should, as Jefferson put it, “restrain men from injuring one another [but] leave them otherwise free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and improvement.” George Washington provided the reason for this decision to limit the power of the state. “Government,” he said, “is not reason, it is not eloquence, it is force; like fire, it is a troublesome servant and a fearful master.”
That fact ought to provide sufficient incentive to contain the power of government. But Jefferson issued an admonition that directly addresses the matter we are discussing today. In the Virginia Statute of Religious Liberty, he wrote, “To compel a man to furnish contributions of money for the propagation of opinions which he disbelieves is sinful and tyrannical.”
Jefferson was referring to the establishment of a state church and the taxing of citizens to support it. But his wisdom applies perfectly well to subsidies to broadcasting. Virtually everything that is broadcast on National Public Radio and the Public Broadcasting Service involves someone’s opinion. Not everything can be broadcast. Someone makes a selection among all the things that could be put on the air. Ideology is part | [

87 North the production company of David Leitch and Wife Kelly Mccormick is moving places and how. The Duo have a first look deal with Netflix and NBC Universal and has now found another house for themselves.
The film follows a man who wakes up in Tijuana after being left for dead with absolutely no memory. As he follows a string of clues to uncover his identity, he discovers that he’s been living two different lives
One as a super-successful crime kingpin, surrounded by beautiful women, expensive toys and a lavish lifestyle, and the other as an undercover CIA agent, but with a puny salary, no family or home life whatsoever and zero trappings of success. The problem is, he can’t remember which of these two personas is his true identity.
The film is written by Jon and Eric Hoeber, The Hoeber brothers have written films like BattleShip along with the Red Series and the most recent and extremely successful Jason Statham Starrer the Meg.
As of now no director has been attached to the project but Rumors doing the round are that Sam Hargrave who is a prodigy of the team is being tapped to direct.
87North will executive produce. Drew Simon, Kevin Sauer and Sam Brown are overseeing the development for STX entertainment.
We at amdb.in wish the entire team all the very best.

World Student’s Day 2019 History Why Is It Celebrated On Abdul Kalam’s Birthday :- World Students’ Day is marked as the birth date of A. P. J. Abdul Kalam. The day is is observed every year on Kalam’s birthday, that falls on 15 October. World Students’ Day is a celebration of multiculturalism, diversity as well as cooperation among students from all over the world.
World Student’s Day 2019
In the year 2010 the United Nations declared 15 October as “World Students’ Day” and from then the day is celebrated every year on the same day.
APJ Abdul Kalam was born on 15 October 1931 and served as the 11th President of India from the year 2002 to 2007. He was born and raised in Rameswaram, Tamil Nadu as well as studied physics and aerospace engineering.
He spent four decades as a scientist and science administrator, largely at the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) along with Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) and was familiarly involved in civilian space programme and military missile development efforts of India. Therefore he is also popularly known as the “Missile Man of India” for his work on the development of ballistic missile and launch vehicle technology.
Later on 2002, he was elected as the 11th President of India with the support of both the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party as well as the then-opposition Indian National Congress. He was also widely referred to as the “People’s President”.
World Student’s Day 2019 History
On World Students’ Day, students display and celebrate their acts of social responsibility along with having gatherings on campus in order to showcase the causes they volunteer for. They also take part in delighted competitions, have some student food, gossip about the student unions as well as also complain about their student fees.
The day is commemorated on APJ Abdul Kalam’s birth anniversary for the reason that Dr Kalam was a dedicated teacher as well as identified himself foremost in that role before anything else.
Because of the former President’s love for students, several educational institutions in India celebrate Kalam’s birthday in their own way. Remarkably, in the year 2010, the United Nations declared October 15 to be World Students’ Day.
APJ Abdul Kalam’s Birthday Quotes
APJ Abdul Kalam was always focused on and talked about proper education and for students, therefore he was very popular and much- loved amongst the students. One of his best sayings for students were, “Dream, Dream, Dream, Dreams transform into thoughts. And thoughts result in action.” He had also further said, to students, “If you fail, never give up because FAIL means ‘first attempt in learning’.”
His another inspirational saying was: “Real education enhances the dignity of a human being and increases his or her self-respect. If only the real sense of education could be realized by each individual and carried forward in every field of human activity, the world will be so much a better place to live in.” | [

The Seventh Continent (German: Der siebente Kontinent) is a 1989 Austrian drama film directed by Michael Haneke. It is Haneke's debut feature film, reportedly inspired by a true story of an Austrian middle-class family that committed suicide. The film chronicles the last years of the European family, which consists of Georg, an engineer; his wife Anna, an optician; and their young daughter, Eva. They lead routine urban middle-class lives, with hopes of escaping to Australia to start a new life, but suddenly decide to destroy themselves without any apparent reason. The film was selected as the Austrian entry for the Best Foreign Language Film at the 62nd Academy Awards, but was not accepted as a nominee. | [

Australia's chances of a hotter and drier than usual year have increased with the likelihood of an El Nino event forming in the Pacific Ocean this year now an odds-on risk, the Bureau of Meteorology said.
Sea-surface temperatures in the equatorial Pacific are "now just shy of El Nino levels", the bureau said in its latest update, adding that large areas of abnormally balmy waters below the surface are likely to keep the region warm for some time.
"Ocean temperatures in the tropical Pacific continue to be warmer than average, trade winds remain weaker than average, and all models surveyed suggest further ocean warming will occur," the bureau said.
It predicts the likelihood of an El Nino event this year "at least a 70 per cent chance", matching the recent forecasts of the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.
"All international climate models monitored by the bureau indicate that El Nino thresholds will be reached or exceeded by June," the bureau said.
The chart below of monthly sea-surface temperatures shows the regions of warmer-than-average temperatures, according to the Bureau of Meteorology.
El Nino years are typically dry ones for eastern Australia and large areas of south-east Asia as rainfall patterns shift further east. Droughts and bushfires are more common in such years.
Conversely, countries on the eastern fringe of the Pacific have abnormally wet conditions.
Globally, El Ninos can add about 0.1 degree or more to surface temperatures as the Pacific absorbs less heat from the atmosphere. Building on the background warming from climate change, the additional burst of heat from the naturally occurring El Nino would raise the likelihood that 2015 and even 2016 will exceed last year as the hottest year in meteorological records, climate scientists say.
The bureau cautioned that model accuracy is typically lower at this time of the year than for other periods, so an El Nino event is not a certainty.
Relatively warm sea-surface temperatures in the Indian Ocean also favour wetter-than-average conditions over the next three months as additional moisture is typically drawn in across the continent, the bureau said.
All international climate models...indicate that El Nino thresholds will be reached or exceeded by June
Some of that rain is on the way, with forecasts for much-needed falls across much of southern Australia in the coming week, particularly for southern NSW and eastern Victoria, according to the bureau: | [

DMGA Meeting -
Monday, September 25, 2017
Speaker: Betsy Abrams
The "Weediorologist's" Guide to Weeds
At our September 25th meeting, DeKalb Master Gardener Association
will have a presentation by our own "Weediorologist" Betsy Abrams.
It will be her guide to weeds, including a Top 10 of the Worst Weeds.
Betsy has put together a Show'n'Tell with photos of local weeds.
You'll see cool and warm season annuals and perennials.
You're bound to recognize some of the nastiest ones: Once you
have a few of them, expect a ton, plus some with seeds from "heck"
and nasty taproots!
Betsy became a Master Gardener in DeKalb County in 2011, but she's been busy gardening
since 2004, when she left her job after 22 years as a Senior Meteorologist behind the scenes
at the Weather Channel. She's been a storm-chaser and has given talks at schools about storms
and hurricanes. She currently works part-time at Sevananda Natural Foods Market in Little 5 Points
in the wellness department, dealing mainly with bulk herbs. Her special interests include native plants,
daffodils, growing herbs and vegetables, and competitive soccer.
DMGA meetings begin at 6:30 p.m.
at the Northlake / Barbara Loar Branch of the DeKalb County Public Library located at
3772 LaVista Road, Tucker, GA 30084 (inside I-285, corner of Harobi Dr. and LaVista Rd.,
turn at the BB&T Bank). Click here for a
of the library's location.
Plan to join us and bring a friend. There is no charge or pre-registration for
this DMGA educational program.
DMGA Announces Scholarship Recipients for 2016-2017
At the March 2017 monthly meeting, DeKalb Master Gardener Association
awarded a second set of horticulture scholarships for the 2016-2017 academic year.
Scholarship checks of $500 were awarded to these two Gwinnett Technical
Ms. Katherine Angell
Ms. Jill Baker
A continuing scholarship, also in the amount of $500, was awarded to:
Mr. Thomas Kmetz
Under a program created in 2006, DMGA awards scholarships each year to
DeKalb County residents attending UGA or Gwinnett Tech. We enjoy the
opportunity to promote and encourage horticulture education in this way.
Our congratulations to these deserving students and our
best wishes for their future successful careers in horticulture. | [

A casino is a place where people go to have fun and win money. However, it is not always a good place for people to spend their money. Oftentimes, people can get cheated or lose money while gambling, so it’s important for casinos to implement effective security measures to prevent such incidents. One common way to do this is through security cameras.
The best way to prevent this is by only playing with money that you can afford to lose. This means you should only take cash with you and leave your bank card at home. Also, it’s best to limit your time at the casino to avoid being overwhelmed by the temptation to gamble more than you can afford. Another good way to limit your spending is by using a pre-commitment facility.
A casino can offer several types of comps to reward loyal players. These comps depend on the number of hours you spend at the casino and the amount of money you stake. Ask the employees of the casino for details about this program. The employee will be able to advise you on how you can maximize your comps. Once you’ve got the right comps, you can start winning big money at the casino.
A casino can be a great place to have fun. The name comes from the Italian word “casino”, meaning “little house.” Many casinos also include hotels, restaurants, and shopping centers. Some even have entertainment events, like live shows. In earlier days, the casino served as a summer house for the rich. Now, many people go to casinos to have fun and win money. | [

Today the practice of urban design has forged a distinctive identity with applications at many different scales – ranging from the block or street scale to the scale of metropolitan and regional landscapes. Urban design interfaces many aspects of contemporary public policy – multiculturalism, healthy cities, environmental justice, economic development, climate change, energy conservations, protection of natural environments, sustainable development, community liveability, and the like. The field now comprises a core body of knowledge that enfolds a right history of ideas, paradigms, principles, tools, research and applications, enriched by electric influences from the humanities, and social and natural sciences.
Companion to Urban Design includes more than fifty original contributions from internationally recognized authorities in the field. These contributions address the following questions: What are the important ideas that have shaped the field and the current practice of urban design? What are the major methods and processes that have influenced the practice of urban design at various scales? What are the current innovations relevant to the pedagogy of urban design? What are the lingering debates, conflicts ad contradictions in the theory and practice of urban design? How could urban design respond to the contemporary challenges of climate change, sustainability, active living initiatives, globalization, and the like? What are the significant disciplinary influences on the theory, research and practice of urban design in recent times?
There has never before been a more authoritative and comprehensive companion that includes core, foundational and pioneering ideas and concepts of urban design. This book serves as an invaluable guide for undergraduate and postgraduate students, future professionals, and practitioners interested in architecture, landscape architecture, and urban planning, but also in urban studies, urban affairs, geography, and related fields. | [

There was once a time when the name Merchant/Ivory stood for something. It meant a certain kind of product that was unmistakably Merchant/Ivory. A classical cinema of sorts - many times based on 19th and early 20th century novels - that played out in a grand classical opulence. Though oft-maligned for their old-world dreariness (modern audiences may be thrown off by the slow and steady style of these films) these period pieces, which include such award-heavy works as A Room with a View, The Bostonians and Howard's End, set a standard for this kind of filmmaking style. So much so was this certain style of filmmaking that the term Merchant/Ivory-esque was often used to describe movies that found themselves in a similar vein. This producing/directing team of Ismail Merchant and James Ivory was almost a sub-industry of their very own. That is, until Merchant, the more dynamic of the two, passed away a few years ago.
Since then, perhaps the magic is gone. Granted, Merchant/Ivory, though well-made quality filmmaking indeed, has never been known for dynamic filmmaking (more a classical upper crust kind of style - at least on the surface), but somehow the power and prestige of this sub-industry of sorts, seems to be lacking in James Ivory's latest work, The City of Your Final Destination. Yet, with this new work, there seems to be a much more passionate feel that was always sorely lacking from the team's hey day of the 80's and early 90's. There was always a sexualized undercurrent flowing through their films (a sort of titillating innuendo), but here, with Ivory on his own, this innuendo has surfaced and, though it does not pervade the characters in the usual way, works its way into the meat of the film. Perhaps, instead of the magic being gone (what actual magic there was in such staid films) the magic has just became something else.
Of course much of this passion (and distrust of passion) I speak of is shown through not only the characters in the film - all played beautifully by their respective actors - but in the gorgeously subtle cinematography that makes the film a thing of natural beauty to behold. Filled with succulent earth tones that nearly engulf the story itself. Ivory's film takes the already well-known (if not a bit well-worn) Merchant/Ivory style and transcends it into a pulsating cascade of thrusting emotion. Of course, when one has the talents of Laura Linney, Charlotte Gainsbourg and the Merchant/Ivory mainstay of Anthony Hopkins, how can one not transcend into a pulsating cascade of thrusting emotion? I suppose in the end, the magic, though transformed, is still there after all. [07/22/10] | [

Pleiades 1B, the Centre National d’Etudes Spatiales (CNES) Earth observation satellite, has captured its first images using e2v high-performance imaging sensors. Two types of e2v sensors (for panchromatic and multispectral imaging) are used as part of the satellite's high-resolution optical imaging instrument.
Pléiades 1B has been designed to provide dual use optical observation coverage with a 70cm resolution. It was launched into space from French Guiana in November 2012 and has accompanied its twin, Pléiades 1A, which was launched into space in December 2011.
The 200kg, high-resolution optical imaging instrument on board Pléiades is equipped with a panchromatic and multispectral focal plane. Five e2v CCD98-50 imaging sensors equip the panchromatic focal plane; the sensors have 6,000 pixels each (giving 30,000 pixels per line), are back-thinned to improve sensitivity and have time delay integration functionality to enable them to capture high-resolution images (70cm on-ground resolution).
The multispectral focal plane is made up of five e2v AT71554 imaging sensors. These imaging sensors cover four spectral bands, made up of 1,500 pixels each, with each spectral band providing 7,500 pixels once installed in the focal plane.
Bertrand De Monte, marketing manager of high-performance imaging at e2v, said: 'We are very pleased to be continuing our successful relationship with CNES by supplying high-performance image sensors for Pléiades 1B. e2v has provided image sensors for a number of Earth observation satellites including the original Pléiades 1A and SPOT 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7. We look forward to seeing yet more high-resolution images of the Earth.' | [

Students from the University of KwaZulu-Natal are angry and they decided to show
their emotions by blocking Hospital Road, in Durban’s South Beach on Thursday
Following the same pattern as two weeks ago, they threw furniture and kitchen
appliances out of their 10 storey residence.
The say they are owed better furniture, and a broken elevator at their residence
should be repaired. When a journalist asked them how it would it help to damage the
little they have, one student offered a flimsy answer, ‘that their anger is prolonged
and at a boiling point.’
Now police have to continue to monitor the situation until they calm down.
The police force will not take any chances because these are the same students,
who two weeks ago burnt bed mattresses and threw bed frames onto the road. | [

The VT-Eye® from VisiTech International is a breakthrough in confocal imaging for the life science community.
This product takes confocal point-scanners to the next level, using the AOD technology. Using the novel Acousto-Optic Deflector (or abbreviated as AOD) technology, the VT-Eye allies ultra-fast scanning and acquisition with high resolution confocal imaging to deliver a system that sets new standards in real-time live-cell confocal microscopy. The incorporation of the AOD technology in VT-Eye allows for high speed beam deflection without having to steer any parts for scanning the X-axis. The result is a confocal laser scanning microscope that scans at up to 50,000 lines per second. Ultra-fast image capture rates of 400 frames per second and above offer the ability to capture clear images of diverse dynamic events such as Calcium puffs, sparks and waves in Life Sciences and particle movement in fluid flows in Materials Science.
The flexibility to image a sample using multi-wavelength, from Ultra Violet through the visible to the near Infra Red, aids in the study of fluroscent proteins, protein expression, and protein-protein interaction. VT-Eye operates with almost any laser or combination of lasers using the Acousto Optical Tuneable Filter (AOTF) technology to provide fast laser line selection of different excitation wavelengths.
Multiple ROI's, of any shape, are used to generate simple and complex masks for illuminating small portions of the field of view, which may be used for viewing some cells without illuminating their neighbours. The image mask may also be used to photobleach selected multiple regions while retaining the unmasked image for viewing the whole area. This offers many possibilities for FRAP and FLIP type experiments.

IRON CONTROL SYSTEM FOR
by Ilan Bar
Drip irrigation of 16 ha. of greenhouses, shade houses and
field grown containers was accomplished using water containing up to 6.0 mg/l of iron.
Crops were irrigated on a daily basis for three years without significant clogging
problems. The system designed and installed to control the iron problems consisted of the
1. Gas Chlorinator - To allow consistent injection of
chlorine in its most available and efficient form.
2. Hydrocyclone Containing Filtering Discs - To ensure
complete and uniform mixture of the gas in the water within a limited space.
3. Sand Media Filters - To settle the oxidized iron and
filter it from the water.
4. Back-up Disc Filters - To control filtration failures and
complete iron separation.
KEY WORDS: Drip irrigation, Filtration, Chlorination, Iron.
Iron deposit problems (ochre) in drip systems have been
reported primarily in the U.S.A., but also from other parts of the world including:
Australia, Zambia, Taiwan, and Israel. These deposits create severe clogging problems in
drip systems. Iron deposit is described as a filamentous amorphous gelatinous type of
brown-reddish slime, that precipitates from water that contains iron. The sticky iron
deposits clog the drippers and cause complete plugging of the system.
The problem exists in well water areas where the groundwater
aquifers are formed mainly of sandy soils or organic muck soils (very common in Florida)
usually with a pH of below 7.0 and in the absence of dissolved oxygen. These waters
contain ferrous iron (Fe+2) which is chemically reduced, 100% water soluble and serves as
the primary raw material for slime formation.
Iron bacteria, mainly from the filamentous genuses such as
Gallionella Sp. Leptothris and Sphaerotilus and less from the rod type, like Psendomonas
and Enterobacter, when present in the water react with the ferrous iron (Fe+2) through an
oxidation process. This changes the iron form to ferric iron (Fe+3) which is insoluble.
The insoluble ferric iron is surrounded by the filamentous bacteria colonies and creates
the sticky iron slime gel that is responsible for clogging the dripper.
Concentrations of ferrous iron as low as 0.15-0.22 mg/l are
considered as a potential hazard to drip systems (H.W. Ford 1982). Emitter clogging hazard
is moderate for concentrations between 0.2-1.5 mg/l. Concentrations above 1.5 mg/l are
described as severe (Bucks and Nakayama - 1980). Practically any water that contains
concentrations higher than 0.5 mg/l of iron cannot be used in drip systems unless they are
treated chemically or otherwise. Experiments in Florida indicate that chlorination
successfully controls iron slime when iron concentrations were less than 3.5 mg/l and the
pH below 6.5 (Nakayama and Bucks - 1986). It is also stated that long-term use of water
with a high level of iron may not be suitable for drip irrigation. The literature mentions
that water containing more than 4.0 mg/l cannot be efficiently chemically treated and it
should undergo a pond sedimentation process before pumping it back through a drip system.
Using the following system, 16 ha. of greenhouses, shade
houses and field grown containers were drip irrigated with water containing up to 6.0 mg/l
of iron. Daily irrigation for three years occurred without any significant clogging
IRON CONTROL METHODS:
There are several ways to control iron slime problems. The
common denominator of all treatments is prevention of the formation of slime.
Basically there are two preventative treatments:
1. STABILIZATION (Precipitation Inhibitors)
Stabilization treatments keep the ferrous iron in solution by
chelating it with sequestering agents. Such agents include various poly phosphates and
2. OXIDATION - SEDIMENTATION - FILTRATION
This type of treatment oxidizes the soluble
"invisible" ferrous iron into the insoluble "visible" ferric iron. It
then will precipitate, so it can be physically separated from the water by means of
The second procedure was the preferred treatment for the
severe iron problems in our supply water.
The various means to oxidize iron include aeration,
chlorination, and potassium permanganate. There are also other oxidizers.
Chlorination using gas chlorine was selected for the

King water stones were among the first Japanese stones introduced to the West. They are aluminum oxide abrasive in a resin bond. In our testing, they were effective in O1 steel but noticeably slower in tough alloys such as A2. The particles fracture and dull after a short period, performing like progressively finer grits, which allows you to move from a medium grit straight to a finishing stone. They are economically priced, require only a quick soaking before use, and are a good choice for honing softer tool steels or when cost is a concern.
These excellent 4000x finishing stones quickly put a mirror finish on tools. The standard stones measure 7" × 2 1/2" and are available as a 1/2" thick stone mounted on an 8" × 2 3/4" rubber-footed plastic base or, for those who store their stones in water ready for use, as a 3/4" thick stone without a base. The large stone is 8" × 2 3/4" × 7/8" thick on a 10" × 3" non-skid plastic base, and is wide enough for even the largest plane blades.
Producing a finer edge than a hard Arkansas, these have the best combination of speed, economy and finish of our fine stones.

On Tuesday, Los Angeles County Superior Court Judge George G. Lomeli became the latest participant in California’s criminal justice system to send a strong message to elected officials in California that it is against the law to reside outside of the district you were elected to represent, and that the consequences of doing so will be harsh, and permanent.
Judge Lomeli sentenced Richard Alarcon, a former Los Angeles councilman and state legislator, to 120 days in county jail and 600 hours of community service after he was found guilty by a jury of four felonies stemming from the fact that Alarcon ran and was elected to represent a city council district in which he did not actually reside.
Alarcon and his wife, Flora Montes de Oca Alarcon, were both found guilty, with the latter avoiding jail time but being sentenced to 400 hours of community service. The entering of felony convictions for the two Alarcons means that both are barred for life from holding public office again.
Alarcon had signed under oath that he resided at a home in Panarama City in the 7th City Council district, but he and his wife actually lived in a nicer home in Sun Valley, outside of the district.
Dozens of supporters and friends of the Alarcons had submitted letters to Judge Lomeli pleading with him not to sentence the ex-politician to jail time. Apparently such appeals fell upon deaf ears–though the judge could have sent Alarcon to state prison for up to six years, based on the crimes he committed.
Alarcon is the ninth politician to be successfully prosecuted by the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s office for not living in districts they represent, according to the Los Angeles Times.
Just last month, State Senator Roderick Wright was sentenced to three months in county jail and community service for multiple felony convictions for pulling the same illegal maneuver as Alarcon — purporting to reside within the Senate district for which he ran and was elected, while actually living in a nice home in a tonier neighborhood nearby, but not in his district.
The recent convictions of Alarcon and Wright for lying about where they actually reside highlights what has been an accepted, if not common, practice in the State Legislature–of State Senators and Assemblymembers not actually residing in their districts.
57 District Attorneys around California should be following the lead of L.A. County District Attorney Jackie Lacey, and her predecessor Steve Cooley, and take the matter of elected public officials allegedly lying about whether they are qualified to run and serve very seriously.
Given Sacramento’s unwillingness to act, enforcing a zero-tolerance policy would be a good idea.
Allowing politicians to flout residency requirements creates the sense that it is within their purview to decide for themselves which laws they would like to follow.
Just last month, State Senator Ben Hueso (D-San Diego) was arrested and charged with driving under the influence of alcohol. At the same time, his official Senate website was running a warning about the hazards of drinking and driving.
Still, a DUI arrest is not uncommon. But two of Hueso’s Democratic colleagues, Senators Ron Calderon and Leland Yee, are both under indictment by federal prosecutors for extremely serious charges of criminal wrongdoing. The State Senate has refused to take up a vote of expulsion. Their colleagues instead invented a new status called being “suspended,” which in all ways is similar to a forced paid vacation.
On Wednesday, State Senator Kevin DeLeon was sworn in by California’s Supreme Court Chief Justice at a lavish event in Los Angeles, where donors to DeLeon were reportedly be picking up the $50,000 price tag. Perhaps it would appropriate for DeLeon to begin by addressing the clear culture of corruption that exists within the State Senate, and about the notion that apparently a great many elected officials believe that they are above the law, deciding for themselves which laws to obey and which ones to break.
That said, I wouldn’t hold your breath.

But inside the bubble, stars would be more likely to have had their disks blown away, the study found.
Our solar system probably formed in a star nursery similar to the Rosette Nebula. But Balog said, "our sun probably didn't get too close to one of these massive stars."
Today our sun's closest star, Proxima Centauri, is nearly 30 trillion miles away.
A Lot of Earths?
"I find it a very optimistic result," said Dimitar Sasselov of the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
"The effect of these massive stars is only important in the near vicinity," he said, so stars outside the zones are still good candidates for planet formation.
But Sasselov and his colleague Scott Kenyon, also at the Center for Astrophysics, think that radiation from an O-star will tend to blow away just gas, and not dust or rocks, from any nearby protoplanetary disks.
This means that the formation of big gas planets similar to Jupiter may be more affected than the formation of smaller, rocky, Earthlike planets inside the zones, they said.
(Related news: "Many 'Earths' Are Out There, Study Says" [April 6, 2005].)
Henry Throop of the Southwest Research Institute at Boulder, Colorado, is skeptical about the new results.
But based on his work on another star-forming region, the Orion Nebula, he agrees that radiation from massive stars could favor the formation of rocky planets.
"We might actually expect to get a lot of Earths in systems like this," Throop said.

A star that changes into a diamond planet? What sounds like science fiction is apparently reality. The discovery was made by an international team of scientists from Australia, Italy, Great Britain, the USA and Germany, including Michael Kramer from the Max Planck Institute for Radio Astronomy in Bonn. The researchers found the diamond planet with the help of the 64-metre Parkes radio telescope in Australia. The planet apparently orbits around an unusual, very dense star, a pulsar.

Pulsars represent the very last stages of star formation. They are rapidly rotating neutron stars the size of a small city which emit a highly focused beam of radio waves. As the star rotates, the beam sweeps over the earth – like the beam of light from a lighthouse – and radio telescopes detect a regular signal which seems to pulsate: thus the name pulsar.
With the newly discovered pulsar, which is known as PSR J1719-1438, the astronomers noticed a regular modulation in the arrival times of the signals. This “disturbance” is caused by the gravitation of a low-mass companion. The type of modulation tells the researchers quite a lot about the small celestial body: it has a diameter of only 60,000 kilometres and is therefore half as big as Jupiter. It orbits the pulsar in just two hours and ten minutes, at a distance of 600,000 kilometres – that’s only slightly less than the radius of our sun. Thus the planet orbits so close to the pulsar that its gravity should really rip it apart.
“The density of the planet is at least as great as that of platinum; this tells us a lot about its origin,” says the team leader, Matthew Bailes from Swinburne University of Technology in Australia. The scientists believe that the companion planet is the tiny core of a once-massive star. It only just managed to escape destruction as the rest of its material was being siphoned off by the pulsar.
J1719-1438 is an extremely rapidly rotating type of neutron star, which is known as a millisecond pulsar. It spins around its own axis more than 10,000 times per minute, has 1.4 times the mass of the sun, but a radius of only 20 kilometres or so. Around 70 percent of pulsars have partners of various types. The astronomers suspect that it is these companions which transfer mass when they are still stars and thus accelerate an old, slowly rotating pulsar to a very high orbital speed. The result is a rapidly rotating millisecond pulsar with a companion whose mass is greatly diminished - often a white dwarf.
In PSR J1719-1438 the pair is so close together that the companion can only be a white dwarf with greatly reduced mass which has lost all its outer layers and more than 99.9 percent of its original mass. The remnant must consist predominantly of carbon and oxygen because lighter elements, such as hydrogen and helium, cannot explain the data obtained from the observations. The density derived leads to the conclusion that the material is certain to be in a crystalline state; a large part of the star could therefore have a diamond-like structure.
“The ultimate fate of this binary star depends on the mass and orbital period of the donor star at the time the mass was transferred. The rare occurrence of millisecond pulsars with planet-mass companions means that the formation of such exotic planets is the exception rather than the rule, and requires a combination of special circumstances,” says Benjamin Stappers from the University of Manchester.
The data on the pulsar-planet pair were confirmed with follow-up observations with the Lovell radio telescope in Great Britain and one of the two Keck telescopes on Hawaii. The system is around 4,000 light years away towards the Serpens (Serpent) constellation in the plane of our Milky Way. The pulsar itself was identified among a total of 200,000 gigabytes of data – with the help of special analytical programs on supercomputers at Swinburne University of Technology, the University of Manchester and the INAF-Osservatorio Astronomico di Cagliari on Sardinia.
The project is part of a systematic search for pulsars in the entire firmament in which the 100-metre Effelsberg radio telescope, belonging to the Max Planck Institute for Radio Astronomy, contributes measurements in the northern hemisphere. “What we have here is the largest and most sensitive mapping of pulsars in the whole sky ever conducted,” says Michael Kramer, Director at the Max Planck Institute in Bonn. “ | [

The KSB Group will introduce its new UPA S 200 submersible borehole pump, designed for water supply, irrigation, groundwater management and pressure boosting applications, at this year’s IFAT trade fair which will now take place from 7–11 September 2020.
The company says the UPA S 200 pump series has an optimised hydraulic design and metal casing wear rings and silicon carbide bearings keep energy consumption low, even when there is high grit contents in the fluid handled. When the pump is combined with high-efficiency motors of the UMA-S type series and variable speed control, energy costs can be further reduced.
For operation without a frequency inverter, the impeller diameter is trimmed to a high level of precision. Characteristic curves are individually adjusted to demand and excessive power consumption prevented in fixed-speed operating modes.
UPA S 200 will initially be launched on the market as an 8-in pump and available in four different hydraulic sizes. Its optimum flow rates range between 40–160 m3 and its maximum head is 400 m. All cast components are made of high-grade stainless steel 1.4408, or optionally 1.4517. | [

- Fire Hydrant (Most Disadvantaged)
The term "most hydraulically disadvantaged hydrant" refers to a specific fire hydrant landing valve within the water distribution system of a fire hydrant system that is at a significant hydraulic disadvantage compared to other hydrants in the system. There are two main factors that determine the hydraulically disadvantaged hydrant:
- Distance from the incoming water main: In a typical water distribution system, water is supplied through a main pipe, and fire hydrants are connected to this main. The hydraulically disadvantaged hydrant is the one that is farthest from the point where the water enters the system. This means it has to overcome more friction loss and pressure drop due to the length of the piping network, resulting in reduced water flow and pressure at that hydrant.
- Elevation in multi-level buildings: In the case of a multi-level building, the hydraulically disadvantaged hydrant is located at the highest level. Since water pressure decreases with increasing elevation, the hydrant at the highest level will experience lower water pressure compared to hydrants at lower levels.
Identifying the most hydraulically disadvantaged hydrant is crucial to determine the performamce of a fire hydrant system at the most disadvantaged point within the system. | [

I'm helping Dean prepare sample for the Invertebrate Collection Room at the moment. The Collection Room has an estimated number of 300,000 jars of samples that have been collected over 50 years. Thousands of samples are added through ongoing collection programmes each year.
The samples I am preparing were collected late last year and have been 'fixed' in Ethanol and stored in plastic bags. It is amazing looking at the different sorts of starfish, sea urchins, and gross-looking sea cucumbers! Will get to learn the proper names soon no doubt!

FREMONT, Calif., Dec. 7, 2009 – AutoFarm announces a new Central Business System, available now, that will provide a unique approach to service technology with the AutoFarm ParaDyme Precision Ag System.
The Central Business System (or CBS) is a Web site that allows AutoFarm and its resellers or dealers to offer customers unique new services that enhance the efficiency and productivity of their new ParaDyme precision farming system.
The ParaDyme system is the industry’s first single system solution to everything precision ag: planter control, application control, yield monitoring, data logging and management, plus hands-free GPS steering via WAAS, EGNOS, OmniSTAR HP/XP, RTK and more. ParaDyme offers unique new built-in features including 100% factory integrated and activated 2-way wireless communications. AutoFarm CBS allows the customer to access these new precision ag applications and services such as AutoFarm RTK ReadyConnect and Remote Real-Time Service.
RTK ReadyConnect provides corrections-by-cell in monthly packages making it a flexible option in areas that have state-sponsored CORS networks. The grower can get RTK accuracy without a base station and without having to deal with third party carriers, monthly billing or contracts from a cell service.
Remote Service via CBS is in real time and this feature is 100% set-up and activated at the factory to eliminate separate cell plans, equipment compatibility, separate contracts, etc.
Remote Service is extremely user friendly: When the grower presses “Call Support,” on the controller touch screen, in the tractor or combine cab, his dealer receives a message alerting them to a service request. If the dealer cannot resolve the service request with a phone call, they can access the grower’s ParaDyme system remotely to resolve the request, in real time. This new feature can dramatically reduce potential costly downtime for the customer because most service requests can be resolved without a field visit by the dealer.
To support CBS and the factory integrated and activated wireless system, AutoFarm currently has over 50 wireless partners across North America, and the list continues to grow to provide the best rural wireless coverage.
“AutoFarm CBS gives customers Remote Service that allows immediate diagnostic capability in the field so they can solve issues in real time,” says Deane Malott, AutoFarm Director of Marketing. “RTK ReadyConnect allows growers to get RTK accuracy without a base station and with the monthly use plan they only use it when they need it.”

Is skin resurfacing always done with chemical peels? I want to have my skin resurfaced to help get rid of my acne scars and sun spots, but I feel like a chemical peel might be too harsh on my sensitive skin. Are there any other skin resurfacing options th
Yes,. Yes, skin resurfacing to treet acne scars and sunspots can be done with lasers. Besides chemical peels dermabrasion is another option. The goal with any of the treatments is to remove the outer layers of skin cell to then allow the body to reline with new, fresh skin cells. I wouldn't say that one method is any less harsh than the other necessarily. That are lasers available that are non-ablative (don't actually remove skin cells) that can help treat pigmentation problems. This would be less harsh for your skin but wouldn't be expected to improve your acne scarring.
Not always. Skin resurfacing is performed by a variety of techniques - chemical peels are only one option. Other options include dermabrasion and laser resurfacing (done with a variety of lasers depending upon degree of scarring). The best option for you would depend upon the how deep your acne scars are and how extensive your "sun spots" are. | [

I recently read a book by CS Lewis titled Surprised By Joy. It was different from any other CS Lewis book I’ve read, more of a biography really. Starting with his childhood, he journeyed through his life, and I read with interest as he moved from Christian to atheist to deist and back to Christian. Like all his nonfiction work, I was bobbing just at the surface of comprehension most of the time. Several concepts caused me to reread the same pages several times hoping his thought process would sink through my dullness. One of his many thought-provoking concepts is the topic of this post.
He helped me see there is a difference between being selfish and being self-centered. Both have a central focus of self, but selfishness does so to the exclusion of other people’s needs or longings. Selfishness has no conscience. Selfishness has no problem using others for the good of self. However, being self-centered still allows for acts of service to others and cringes at even the thought of hurting them. Yet the person who is self-centered expects a payoff – they want to feel good about their service. They may distance themselves from specific acts of charity, even if it truly helps others, if it leaves them unfulfilled. Self-centered people may also find it necessary to receive acclaim or recognition for their generosity of time, talent, or treasure.
Both situations can be modeled by whirlwinds. Self-centered people spin about expelling charity to others, but their energy to give depends upon what self-satisfaction can be vacuumed into their vortex. On the other hand, selfishness is a whirlwind that only captures. It never releases what it takes, and it can never take in enough.
I honestly don’t know where my heart lands between these two attitudes. I want to think I’m closer to self-centered, but I can easily catch myself being selfish. I’m less selfish today than I was five years ago. I’m making progress, and I take comfort in that fact. Honestly, sometimes I have fleeting moments selflessness. As crazy as it sounds, all three of these seem to inhabit me. Regardless, the distance to where I want to be (selflessness) seems far away. I’m pretty sure I’ll run out of time before I fully arrive there.
I trust some of you CS Lewis fans will have your opinions on what he meant on this topic. I want to read those opinions. These are just the thoughts that came to me from the reading. | [

Hate the cockroach all you want, but there's a lot to admire about its physical prowess. For one, the insect can zip across surfaces at 50 blps—body lengths per second. To put that into human perspective, by the time Olympic champion sprinter Usain Bolt reached the 10-meter mark in a 200-meter race, a scaled-up cockroach would have crossed the finish line. The bug can also withstand pressure 900 times its body weight with barely a scratch, endure 10 times the radiation that would kill a human, and squeeze through the smallest of cracks, thanks to its flexible exoskeleton and oil-secreting glands. No wonder Johns Hopkins physicist Chen Li and his colleagues in the Terradynamics Lab have taken inspiration from this ubiquitous pest to design robots that can traverse unpredictable, sometimes treacherous terrain such as building rubble, a forest floor, or mountain boulders.
To inform the design of a bio-inspired robot, Li analyzes actual cockroach motion, putting them through obstacle courses like laser-cut paper that simulates tall grass. "We try to understand the principles of an animal's mechanical interaction with the environment, basically how animals make use of their bodies to move around, through, or over objects," says Li, an assistant professor of mechanical engineering. "We then transfer those principles to the robots." Li is currently testing several prototypes, with the plan to integrate elements of each into a single design. The team hopes the roach will aid in search and rescue missions by transmitting data such as signs of life or structural safety.
The robot has a thermal-formed rounded soft shell that is malleable and elastic enough to compress and then recover its form. The shape also reduces draft and terrain resistance, meaning it can quickly roll its body to either side to slide through grass, a small crack, or any other obstacle. In nature, cockroaches use their malleable shells to flatten themselves to a quarter of their height, or roll through gaps less than half their width.
One current version of the robot features six identical short, C-shaped legs. The powerful appendages move in an alternating tripod gait that maintains three legs on the ground at all times to help the robot remain stable, scamper across smooth surfaces, and push over and through tougher terrain.
Cockroaches only fly short distances as needed, but they also use their wings as an extra set of appendages to push up and flip their bodies over when necessary. One version of the robot has a bisected plastic outer shell that opens up like wings when the robot is on its back.
Vision and sensors
Like a simple windup toy, the device can move only by following a preprogrammed command, and its passive interaction with the environment takes care of the rest. However, future versions can be remotely controlled and will likely include sensors and a camera to transmit information and help navigate. Robo roaches could be outfitted with thermal sensors to search under debris, or with a toxicity sensor to test air quality in the case of gas leak.
Li is studying how cockroaches use both head and antennae to feel what's in front of them and traverse terrain. "We're just beginning to study how the cockroach's head moves up and down, and we think this vibration and oscillation help push it forward," he says. "Cockroach motion is actually a complex, integrated system. It's not just the body shape. One big challenge going forward is how to integrate all this function in one robot."
The prototypes are palm-sized, but future iterations could be made bigger or smaller as necessary. "When people build robots, size does matter," Li says. "If we build them small, we have a more limited choice of actuators, sensors, and motors we can integrate into the design, and the battery is also smaller." But Li says smaller robots can squeeze into tight spots, effectively serving as "scouts" that gather information and get the lay of the land for humans and larger robots. | [

As many of my readers should know, the world of fashion is a consistent and vicious cycle. We are seeing many trends that were huge in the 70s and 80s come back to life and go full force-we see the street-style Instagram stars and influencers as well as many celebrities and models start a specific trend and then it just BLOWS up from there. Some of these trends varying from
culottes to tie-dye. However, one of my personal favorites have been the dad sneakers; and not just any New Balance or Nike chunky shoe, big name designers are coming out with their own variations of the shoes.
Balenciaga has been at the forefront for the revitalization of the bulky dad-style sneakers, thus began Louis Vuitton shortly following after, and most recently Fendi. The shoes are mostly very comfortable, but have been paired amazingly well with tight fitting dresses for a casual yet cozy look. You are also able to simplify a cool rocker style t-shirt and jeans. Attached are some of my favorite looks from some of the influencers that I completely adore, I will also do an updated version with the affordable branded Dad Sneakers!
The shoes will be linked below if you plan on coping a pair! | [

For the first time in eight years, owners of Emerald Phoenix Comics in Aldergrove were unable to pay $1,700 rent this April.
They’re saying their decision to now ultimately close up shop is a result of the federal government’s inaction to protect “truly small businesses” during the COVID-19 pandemic.
“We have been crippled as a business,” expounded co-owner Chris Bodnar in a letter sent to government officials Sunday.
“The government has talked about helping small businesses but the things that come down do not help the small mom and pop shops. In our case it’s ‘too little too late.”
Bodnar and partner Katrina Halliwell first relocated their quaint shop full of comics, board and card games, and collectibles from Abbotsford in October 2017.
They situated their store on 27127 Fraser Hwy. and relished in a community of regular gamers to keep them financially afloat – up until now.
The pandemic has halved their sales in the last two weeks of March compared to last year, Bodnar said.
“We started to see a lot less walk in traffic,” he explained, and most comic suppliers have shut down to comply with government mandates.
As a result, not enough store profit was made to cover the cost of rent.
The couple was expected to pay April’s rent, with the landlord giving them the option of deferring or making partial payments.
But Bodnar said “to keep piling up rent and operating expenses is too risky when there’s no end [to the pandemic] in sight.”
That’s why the Canadian Federation of Independent Business (CFIB) is calling on the federal government to introduce rent subsidies for hard-hit businesses by COVID-19, among other emergency measures.
“If the provincial government had enacted some sort of temporary rent-freeze on commercial properties with businesses adversely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic instead of leaving it up to the landlords it would have alleviated a lot of stress,” Bodnar added.
Emergency loans out of reach for many small businesses
Bodnar went on to say the federal government’s definition of “small business” is not inclusive enough, considering the $25 billion dollar loan program it announced March 27.
Starting mid-April, Canada Emergency Business Account (CEBA) will provide interest-free loans of up to $40,000 to businesses grappling with the financial consequences of COVID-19.
“We don’t qualify for the up to $40,000 loan they mentioned – the requirement is a minimum $50,000 payroll in 2019,” Bodnar said.
“As a mom and pop shop we keep ourselves afloat each month. ‘No one ever opened a comic shop to make lots of money, it’s a business of passion’.”
CFIB executive vice-president Laura Jones is urging hardship grants of $5,000 a month be made available to those threatened by revenue losses.
Bodnar pointed out that a near $10,000 of the new CEBA loan is eligible for forgiveness if businesses repay the $30,000 in two years.
Jones, with CFIB, is urging the government to make the forgivable portion of the loan ($10,000) a grant available to small businesses instead.
Langley City business Forever Yours Lingerie just made the $50,000 payroll cut-off, and applied for a CEBA loan.
Owner Sonya Perkins said if she receives the maximum $40,000 “it will only cover a quarter of [her store’s] monthly bills.”
What the federal government announced is giving dying businesses false hope, Perkins said.
Especially for businesses without a website to turn to in order to sell product.
“It sounds great but in reality it’s not the support we need – we need rent relief.”
Long-time customer, Aldergrove resident Stephen James, was disheartened by news of Emerald Phoenix Comics’ closure.
“Some of my best memories playing Magic: The Gathering were at your shop. I met Jesse Raven there and we are still friends to this day. Thank you for creating a space for that,” James told Bodnar.
His friend Raven, another loyal customer, ardently agreed.
“I’m having trouble expressing just how unfortunate this is. Some of my best memories of nerding out and playing games were at the Phoenix nest,” Raven said.
Store regulars were what made Bodnar and Halliwell’s decision to shutter so gut-wrenching, they told the Aldergrove Star.
“We didn’t want to be another vacant storefront in the heart of Aldergrove,” Bodnar said.
“But with a heavy heart we must submit. This will be our last month we will be open. We’ve exhausted all of our options.”

Philadelphia Democrat leaders unanimously selected State Rep. Mike Driscoll to fill the Northeast Philly City Council seat left vacant after Bobby Henon resigned last month following his conviction on federal corruption charges.
Driscoll, who represents Northeast Philadelphia in the Pennsylvania House, was the only candidate for the post, said former City Controller Alan Butkovitz, one of the ward leaders who voted in the special election for Henon’s successor, held last week at the Ashburner Inn.
“It really was a very celebratory event, and it was pretty remarkable in my experience and that nobody in the preceding weeks or months had even uttered the possibility that they might consider running for the seat,” said Butkovitz of the election.
Under the city charter, there is no primary election when there is a resignation of an elected official. Instead of a public ballot, ward leaders for the political parties choose the candidates. With a seven-to-three Democrat to Republican majority in the district, Driscoll’s ascension to the 6th Council District seat is a virtual certainty.
Butkowitz, a ward leader since 1994, said he’s never seen a time when there was only one candidate for this type of election. A few people made inquiries, he said, but no one other than Driscoll officially entered the contest. There was some speculation that Butkovitz would run for the job, but he said his focus is a possible run for State Treasurer in 2024. The Philadelphia Democrat will have to fight for his seat in an open election in 2023, when voters will select a new Council and mayor.
Driscoll, 61, won his 173 statehouse seat in 2014. A graduate of Cardinal Doughtery High School and LaSalle University, he went on to earn a master’s degree from the University of Pennsylvania. He went into elected office after years in government, serving as deputy secretary of the Department of General Services under Gov. Bob Casey.

Chauvet Cave Paintings Gallery Discovered on December 18, 1994, it is considered one of the most significant prehistoric art sites. A study published in 2012 supports placing the art in the Aurignacian period, approximately 30,000–32,000 years ago.

Wednesday’s Sports in Brief
HOUSTON (AP) — Major League Baseball will speak with the Astros to determine whether the commissioner’s office or the club will handle any decision following an investigation into the conduct of Houston assistant general manager Brandon Taubman.
Commissioner Rob Manfred said before World Series Game 2 that MLB investigators were at work in their probe.
“I think that there will be a conversation with the club at the end of the investigation and as is often the case, we’ll make a decision working with the club as to how who should handle it, as opposed to exactly what the outcome is,” Manfred said. “At the end of the day, he is an Astros employee.”
Taubman has apologized for using language that was “unprofessional and inappropriate” in the Houston clubhouse following the Astros’ pennant-winning victory over the New York Yankees last weekend. Sports Illustrated reported he repeatedly yelled toward a group of female reporters about closer Roberto Osuna, who was suspended for 75 games last year for violating MLB’s domestic violence policy before being traded from Toronto to the Astros.
Taubman shouted “Thank God we got Osuna!” according to SI, which said he made similar remarks several times, punctuating them with a profanity.
Manfred wasn’t sure how long the investigation will need.
HOUSTON (AP) — Commissioner Rob Manfred says Major League Baseball will look into a politicized tweet by umpire Rob Drake that referenced a rifle and criticism of President Donald Trump.
Drake posted this message to Twitter: “I will be buying an AR-15 tomorrow, because if you impeach MY PRESIDENT this way, YOU WILL HAVE ANOTHER CIVAL WAR!!! #MAGA2020”
The tweet has since been deleted.
Drake, 50, has worked spring training or regular-season major league games since 1999 and joined the big league staff in 2010. Drake was not assigned to work the postseason this year.
“The dialogue in this has been really positive with the players association, a lot of common ground on addressing the issue,” Commissioner Rob Manfred said before Game 2 of the World Series. “We understand that our workforce is a microcosm of society. There’s a societal problem.”
Skaggs was found dead in his hotel room on July 1 before the start of a series against the Texas Rangers. The Tarrant County Medical Examiner’s Office said the 27-year-old died after choking on his vomit with a toxic mix of alcohol and the painkillers fentanyl and oxycodone in his body.
While the joint program of MLB and the players’ association has testing with penalties for performance-enhancing drugs and banned stimulants, opioids are included in drugs of abuse and not subject to testing with penalties for players on 40-man rosters.
LOS ANGELES (AP) — Boxing promoter Oscar De La Hoya denies accusations of sexual assault contained in a lawsuit filed against him this week.
De La Hoya’s company, Golden Boy Promotions, issued a statement describing the action as a “frivolous lawsuit” and calling the allegations “completely false.”
The lawsuit filed Monday in Los Angeles County Superior Court alleges that the unnamed woman had a consensual sexual relationship with De La Hoya until he assaulted her at his home in Pasadena in November 2017.
The lawsuit goes into graphic detail in its allegations against De La Hoya, claiming the former boxing champion was intoxicated at the time that he overpowered the woman. The lawsuit doesn’t specify whether she filed a complaint with the police after the alleged attack, which left her requiring medication for “extreme swelling and pain.”
The complainant says she went to a hospital after the alleged attack and eventually sought psychological treatment, during which she was diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder. The woman claims she still has daily symptoms of depression and anxiety.
Golden Boy Promotions’ statement suggests De La Hoya is being extorted.
FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) — The Patriots have placed receiver Josh Gordon on injured reserve with knee and ankle injuries.
The move was posted on the NFL’s transaction wire.
Gordon suffered the injuries during New England’s win over the Giants in Week 6 and sat out Monday night’s win over the Jets. He did not participate when the Patriots returned to the practice field on Wednesday.
Gordon’s absence will mean the Patriots will now be leaning even more on veteran Mohamed Sanu, acquired in a trade with Atlanta on Tuesday, to provide some stability to an offense that leads the league in scoring at nearly 32 points a game.
Gordon was among New England’s leading receivers this season. In six games he has 20 catches for 287 yards and a touchdown.
This marks the second abbreviated season for Gordon. Following a trade from Cleveland last season, he appeared in 11 games for | [

The current headline on the front page of the Huffington Post has the sensational headline, "GOP Sends National Guard After Dem Leader." When I first read it, that was news to me. No one else is reporting that. No one but HuffPo:
But here's where it gets real interesting. When you click on the headline, the story it takes you to says nothing about the National Guard being dispatched. Even the actual story's headline makes that clear:
That is a huge difference. Sending the Guard conjures up images of military personnel rounding up politicians. Having the state troopers go look for a politician is quite different. The story's content explains exactly what the move is:
The Wisconsin Constitution prohibits police from arresting legislators while they're in session. Fitzgerald says he just wants to send a message to Miller – if he's even home – that he must bring his caucus back to Madison.
One commenter on the HuffPo story noticed the discrepancy, and wasn't happy:
Makes you wonder.
I won't go as far as to say that Arianna reads The Blaze, but I can report that HuffPo has changed its front page: | [

Lee Fields Park
Address: 2430 Bentine Lane, West Terre Haute, IN 47885
Phone Number: 812-462-3391 (Admin Office)

Park Overview & Features
Lee Fields Park is a neighborhood park located on Ferguson Hill in Sugar Creek Township off of U.S. Highway 150. The land had once been the playground of the old Concannon High School and was deeded to the Park Board in April, 1975 by the Vigo County School Corporation. The park was named Lee Fields in honor of a West Terre Haute businessman and Rotarian who had spent many years developing recreational facilities and programs for young people in the area.
The park has a small playground, a multipurpose court with basketball goals, a softball field with a back stop, an open field, a picnic shelter, and a wooded area. As no rest rooms are available in this park, a stone water fountain was installed especially for those individuals participating in sports.
Lee Fields Park is used mainly by neighborhood children and families, joggers, and local baseball and basketball teams for practice.

An Economic and Social History of the Ottoman Empire by Prof. Halil Inalcik is an excellent resource for anyone who wishes to understand, in detail, the nature of Ottoman economics. It is particularly interesting, for example, to note that one of the reasons that the author gives for the decline of Ottoman economic power relative to Europe was that the Ottomans had implemented a command economy and found themselves unable to compete with the dynamic free markets of Europe.
Inalcik describes the silk and dye trades — two of the most important industries to the Ottoman economy — and how the government had tightly regulated these industries: controlling the quantity, price and even quality of the output. Even though markets were rapidly expanding and there was increasing demand for new and cheaper products, the Ottoman central planners refused to allow this demand to be met and went so far as to regulate the quantities of silk and other fibres that could be used in particular textiles. Indeed, it became necessary for craftsman in the 15th century to actually bribe Ottoman officials in order to be allowed to produce more than what the central planners deemed necessary or to produce textiles of differing quality to that legislated by the state. This kept prices artificially high, but it also left considerable demand unmet and exposed markets under Ottoman control to cheaper imports from the rapidly growing economies of Europe.
Of this issue, Inalcik writes:
This case illustrates how the Ottoman economy was bound under the strict control of a strong centralist state to follow a typical medieval economy with a fixed market and production levels. This also explains, I believe, the dichotomy between stagnant Ottoman industries and commerce and the dynamic European market economy which first appeared in Italy and the Low Countries and then in other Western countries. Thus, it was European market expansion and competition which stimulated new technologies producing cheaper and better quality goods. These changes secured Western economic supremacy and the decline of Eastern industries. Ottoman woolen and silk industries and mining were severely affected by the growing import of cheaper Western products at the end of the sixteenth century.
Whereas the market economies of Europe had led to the development of more efficient means of production, initially in textiles and metallurgy but then in all sectors in the Industrial Revolution, the commnd economy of the Ottomans had led to stagnation because, when the state is controlling your production, there is little incentive to innovate. Whilst there were obviously other factors that led to Ottoman decline — such as war with the Russians and later in World War I — it seems almost certain that a failure to develop a free economy was one of the contributing factors. | [

Acrylic on canvas
Framed in white floating frame
Featuring Edmund de Waal (The hare with amber eyes)
This painting is part of the "Books on Canvas" Series. It is an interpretation of Edmund De Waal's "The hare with amber eyes", which is set in the Palais Ephrussi in Vienna. The palais can be seen in the background of the painting. It is a book about memories and remembering. Thats why I chose to paint a kid and used my own daughter as a model. The book touched me because it raises questions like "What gives items meaning?" and "What will be remembered of me?".
The painting does not only express love for my kids, but also my love for the city of Vienna.
They painting is framed in a white floating frame. Please write me an email if you have any questions about this painting.

Just when you think you understand bluebirds, they throw you a curve ball. In this case, four curve balls. The bluebird couple are now working on the 4th nest of the current nesting cycle. The first completed nest was built in a Home-For-Bluebirds nest box in our neighbor’s front yard. For some reason, the nest was abandoned before any eggs were laid. The second complete nest was built in a Gilbertson style nest box in our yard near the back door. That nest was abandoned before any eggs were laid. The third complete nest was built in a standard wood nest box in our back yard. That nest box was abandoned before any eggs were laid. The fourth nest is currently under construction in the nest camera box in our back yard.
The reason for the vacillation between nest boxes is a bit of a mystery. The female bluebird is very young. This may be her first nesting cycle. Whatever the reason, she has been working very hard the last few days building nests. Hopefully, this nest will be the one and we’ll see some blue eggs in the next few days.

Dog owners urged to be more diligent
Published Thursday, 20th December 2018
The City of Wanneroo is calling on all dog owners to be socially responsible and ensure their pets are under control in public areas.
This follows concerns raised by community members about dogs being exercised off-leash without being under adequate control.
Dog owners have responsibilities as outlined by the Dog Act 1976 including:
- Dogs must wear a collar and Council registration tag when in public places
- Dogs must be on a maximum two-metre leash in public areas such as local streets
- In designated areas, dogs may be exercised off a leash, but the person in control of the dog must carry a leash in case it is required
- Dogs must be under control the owner’s control at all times.
The City’s Director Community and Place, Debbie Terelinck, said it was disappointing that many dog owners failed to take their responsibilities seriously.
“To date in 2018 there have been 304 dog attacks in the City of Wanneroo (on people and animals), and the majority of these were caused by irresponsible owners failing to control their pets in public places,” Ms Terelinck said.
“I urge all fellow dog owners to do the right thing – keep your dog on a leash when walking out in public, ensure you can control your dog when exercising them off leash at parks, never allow your dog to approach another person without their consent, and keep your dog away from other animals.
“And of course, always pick up your dog’s waste and dispose of appropriately.”
Dog poo is litter and a cause of major worry for communities because of the potential health, environmental and amenity impacts. While dog poo bags are available in many parks, owners are responsible for ensuring they have bags with them before leaving the house.
An on-the-spot fine of $100 will be issued to owners who don’t remove their dog’s poo.
Other important points to remember:
- Owners’ properties must be adequately fenced to confine pets
- Dogs must be registered in one person’s name, over the age of 18 years
- Dogs must be registered with the City and micro-chipped from the age of three months.
Dogs may be exercised off leash in approved exercise areas providing they are under effective control (meaning they will come back when called) and are close to their owner so they the leash can be quickly attached if need be.
Dogs are not permitted at:
- Frederick J Stubbs Grove, Quinns Rocks
- Beach Reserves, except designated areas
- Wanneroo Showgrounds, Wanneroo
At Kingsway Regional Sporting Complex, dogs are permitted off leash in the dog exercise park only, and must be on a leash in all other areas. Dogs are not permitted on any hard sports courts in the City
Dog beach locations
Dogs may be exercised in approved dog beach locations:
- Part of Quinns Rocks Beach, Quinns Rocks - north from Tapping Way
- Part of Yanchep Beach, Yanchep - south from Nautical Court
- Part of Two Rocks Beach, Two Rocks - south of the southern groyne.
An on-the-spot fine of $200 will be issued to owners who fail to control their pet or allow it to enter areas which are not designated dog exercise areas.

Pittsburgh will experience a break from the current chill at midweek, but with the milder temperatures will also come rain.
Cool air will remain in place across southwestern Pennsylvania through Monday, sending temperatures in Pittsburgh into the 20s Sunday night and holding Monday's highs to just shy of 50 degrees.
A break in the chill will come on Tuesday with temperatures rebounding to the upper 50s.
Further warming on Wednesday will cause temperatures to approach 65 degrees.
Umbrellas can be left at home through Wednesday with dry weather in control.
The warming will occur ahead of a cold front that is set to return rain and gusty winds to western Pennsylvania on Thursday.
While widespread wind damage is not expected, wind gusts could become briefly strong enough Thursday morning for isolated tree damage and power outages as the storm's cold front passes through.
In the front's wake, another blast of colder air and brisk winds will follow for late week.
The worst of the ice headed to the eastern U.S. will focus on the I-81 corridor from Virginia to southern Pennsylvania.
While heavy snow and ice are not expected to fall over much of the Midwest Sunday into Monday, some slippery roads and travel disruptions are likely.
As the saying goes, no two snowflakes are exactly alike. Russian photographer Alexey Kljatov's collection of high-resolution magnified flakes makes this widely-held belief more convincing.
Fresh cold and the return of Santa Ana winds are in store for Southern California to start the new week.
Tropical Cyclone Madi has developed over the Bay of Bengal, northeast of Sri Lanka and east of India.
A magnitude 4.5 earthquake shook the ground near Jones, Okla., Saturday afternoon.
LaMesa, CA (1938)
100 degrees, warmest ever in US for Dec. Downtown LA had 91.7 degrees, only 90 degree reading in December.
Elkton, MD (1963)
Jet liner exploded near Elkton, MD killing all 81 on board. Lightning is believed to have caused the explosion of residual fuel under one of the outboard wing tanks as plane passed through a vicious thunderstorm. | [

Inhibition and detection of 15-lipoxygenase-1
|Mr N. (Nick) Eleftheriadis
|January 13, 2017

In his thesis Nick Eleftheriadis has described the design of new inhibitors of human 15-lipoxygenase-1 (15-LOX-1) using a novel approach for fragment–based screening. 15-LOX-1 is an important mammalian lipoxygenase and plays a crucial role in the biosynthesis of inflammatory signaling molecules, having a regulatory role in several inflammatory lung diseases such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and chronic bronchitis. Recently also roles in various diseases of the central nervous system like Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s as well as stroke have been described. Novel potent inhibitors and activity-based probes of 15-LOX-1 are urgently required to explore the role of this enzyme further and enable drug discovery efforts. This thesis consists of part A and part B with related but distinct topics.
In Part A the design of new inhibitors of 15-LOX-1 using a novel approach for fragment–based screening has been described. This method employs diversely substituted scaffolds for substitution oriented screening (SOS) in order to find lead compounds for 15-LOX-1 inhibition. The initial hit structures have been optimized using structure-based design and molecular modeling studies resulting in various potent inhibitors. The best inhibitors were evaluated in cell-based studies and ex vivo studies in mouse precision-cut lung slices, where they showed anti-inflammatory and neuroprotective effects.
In Part B the development of a novel probe for activity-based labeling of 15-LOX-1 has been described. We have created for the first time an activity-based probe as an efficient chemical tool for activity-based labeling of recombinant 15-LOX-1 that also provides 15-LOX-1 activity dependent labeling in cell lysates and tissue. By mimicking the natural substrate of the enzyme, activity-based probes have been designed that covalently bind to the active enzyme. The probes are tagged with a terminal alkene as chemical reporter that has been employed for bioorthogonal linkage of a detectable biotin functionality via the oxidative Heck reaction. | [

East Africa is currently suffering from a massive invasion of locust, threating food security throughout the region. The UN’s Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) has said that Africa is experiencing the worst invasion of locust in over 25 years. Over 19 million people live in East African and already have trouble securing food. The FAO is urgently asking other countries to donate $70 million in emergency funding to help fight the locust and protect future crops. The locust could potentially spread to other parts of Africa if not stopped.
Desert locust are short-horned grasshoppers that gather at the massive and swarm to food sources. Because they have the ability to swarm, they can travel fast and cover larger distances. They are a major threat to crops and is a huge contributing factor to famines, especially in Africa. These inspects are often associated with The Bible and have been featured in movies like The Mummy (1999). There are two phases that the locust has which are important to their swarming. The two phases are solitary and the gregarious phase. The in solitary phase, the locust do not group together. However, they can move independently and will be greenish in color. In the gregarious phase, the locust will swarm and group together. They became a brownish color and are able to blend in with their environment. The desert locust feeds on leaves, fruit, shoots, flowers, bark, seeds, and stems. Not only are locust a threat to crops, but they consume noncrop plants such as sugarcane and cotton. The desert locust can travel up to 80 miles or more in just one day. They do not attack animals or people and currently there is no evidence that the desert locust carries diseases that can spread to humans.
Kenya’s government is currently spending over $5 million dollars to attempt to prevent future spreading and manage the massive swarms. In the 1920s-1930s, African and Asian countries began developing ways to control the locust outbreaks. The best way to control the desert locust is with insecticides. Insecticides are chemical substances used to kill insects, eggs, and larvae. Insecticides are used to increase agricultural productivity. Although most farmers use insecticide, some use the desert locust’s natural enemies. This includes using birds and reptiles to eat the locust.
There is scientific evidence to show that partial blame for the locust outbreak in Africa is due to global warming. East Africa had a different year in terms of rain patterns. They received large amounts of rains between the months of October and December. The warming waters from the Indian Ocean produced more typical storms in 2019 which caused the large amount of raining to the region. This caused East Africa to have a wet year of 2019. This made the excellent living and growing conditions for the locust. “The land is perfect for the locust to breed for the next six months” said Keith Cressman, FAO’s senior locust officer in forecasting. The United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization says that if the desert locust situation isn’t dealt with, the swarms could grow 400 times bigger by the beginning of summer 2020. The FAO is predicting a plague if the swarms are not contained quickly, furthering threating the spread of the locust and food. It is estimated that one swarm, the size of Paris, can eat as much food as half the population of France according to the FAO.
If you want to get more involved, the FAO is seeking donations for food and pest control. You can go to the FAO’s website or twitter account, @FAOKnowledge, to follow up with the desert locust outbreak. Also, look for the hashtag #desertlocust or #HornofAfrica to get updates on the situation. | [

As seen in Issue 3 of Uncaged Book Reviews. To read the full magazine, see the link below.
Limousin, France, 1249: In one night, Damien La Croix loses his life and his soul, as he willingly choses Undeath rather than perish of the Plague. Once risen as a vampire, he takes his betrothed into the dark with him, but something goes wrong and Antoinette perishes. Now, Damien begins a solitary walk through the corridors of time searching for that one person to take his beloved’s place.
Through Mankind’s long centuries, many women and one man cross his path, respond to his enticements, and are forced to make the choice. None survive to become his companion in the darkness, and so many are lost, now even Damien begins to ask himself the question: Is there no one for me to love…in spite of what I am?
…for when the Night Man Cometh, Death is never far behind...
Uncaged Review: This is the first of a kind for me. This book doesn’t merely span years or even decades, it spans more than a millennia in the life and death and undeath of Damian laCroix. We begin in 1249, France, where the plague is ravaging the village of Limousin. Damian is the son of the Marquix, and a selfish man, but also vulnerable at the same time. His only wish is to live and marry his love, Antoinette, but the plague has taken a hold of her. Desperate and inconsolable, Damian wanders into the forest, and to the large pit that has been dug to throw in the bodies of the villagers who have passed on. Here he meets LeMaitre, a sansmort, or vampire. In his desperation to not catch the plague, Damian makes a deal to be Turned with LeMaitre. When he is Turned, he goes to his Antoinette, to be able to “save” her, by turning her as she’s near death from the plague, so they can be together forever.
I can’t go into the full story, but there is betrayal, and over the course of the book, you see the creature that he is along with the humanity that still exists within him. The only thing that Damian is looking for - a woman that he can love forever.
This book is not a vampire romance, nor is it a nosferatu, with the vampire only a monster. It lies somewhere in the middle, as it chronicles this very long unlife of Damian. This book has a very dark tone, but the ending surprised me. Well worth the read for vampire fiction, and highly recommended, although not for the faint of heart. Review by Cyrene | [

Tale of the Tape: Clinton Takes the Fight to Sanders in DebateBy
Clinton accuses rival of `artful smear' over Wall Street ties
Sanders leads polls ahead of New Hampshire Democratic primary
Hillary Clinton came looking for a fight.
She accused rival Bernie Sanders of a “very artful smear” with his criticism of her ties to Wall Street and of using innuendo about her acceptance of high-dollar speaking fees. “Enough is enough,” she told Sanders during Thursday’s Democratic presidential debate in New Hampshire. “If you’ve got something to say, say it directly.”
But Clinton’s outrage did little to put the issue of her ties to Wall Street to rest five days before the Granite State holds its first-in-the-nation primary.
For Sanders, who entered the debate with a 20-point lead in the state, according to a Wall Street Journal/NBC News/Marist poll, the event provided a chance to rail against corporate interests and excite liberal supporters who have rallied behind his cause. Sanders also sought to discount questions of his electability and stumbled a bit through rambling answers on national security.
Here’s the tale of the tape:
Money in Politics
Clinton responded most forcefully when Sanders repeatedly raised the issue of her campaign donations and speaking fees from Wall Street, accusing the Vermont senator of “insinuation” and “innuendo.”
“It’s time to end the very artful smear,” Clinton said, drawing a combination of applause, gasps and boos from the crowd at the University of New Hampshire in Durham.
Clinton invoked President Barack Obama as an example of a “responsible” politician who had taken money from Wall Street, and still pushed to regulate the banks. She said her plan to tackle big banks “takes us further” and had the endorsement of more leading economists than Sanders’s pledge to break up the biggest banks.
Earning cheers in the debate hall, Sanders said “the business model of Wall Street is fraud.”
Sanders has said that as president he would order his Treasury secretary to compile a list of financial firms that are “too big to fail.” He’d then use the Dodd-Frank law to break up those banks.
Whether Sanders could actually deliver on his plan remains a question of debate.
The law permits the Federal Reserve to break up financial institutions deemed “a grave threat to the financial stability of the United States.” But it also requires the backing of the Federal Reserve’s board of governors and then a two-thirds vote by the members of the Financial Stability Oversight Council, a panel that includes all eight major financial regulators and the Treasury secretary. Appointees to the Fed’s Board of Governors serve staggered, 14-year terms, so Sanders would inherit members appointed by Obama.
Clinton has called instead for a “risk fee” on banks with more than $50 billion in assets. She says she would impose broader changes than Sanders by placing new restrictions on “shadow banks,” including hedge funds and high-frequency traders.
“It’s important for everyone to understand I have a record, I stand firm and I will be the person who prevents them from ever wrecking the economy again,” Clinton said.
Defining a Progressive
Clinton also fought back on questions Sanders has raised about her bona fides as a progressive.
Sanders has swiped at Clinton’s vote to authorize the war in Iraq and said she was late to oppose the Keystone XL oil pipeline from Canada and the Trans Pacific Partnership, a trade deal with a dozen Pacific Rim nations that critics say could lead to the loss of U.S. jobs.
Clinton said that by Sanders’s definition, nobody could be a progressive -- a term that resonates with the party’s liberal wing just as “conservative” does with hard-line Republicans. She said Obama accepted donations from Wall Street, and New Hampshire’s Democratic Senator Jeanne Shaheen has backed the trade bill.
"Let’s not be, in an unfair way, making an accusation or making an attack about where I stand and where I always stood," Clinton said, adding that she had "the scars to prove" her devotion to the progressive cause.
"If we’re going to get into labels, I don’t think it was particularly progressive to vote against the Brady Bill five times," she said referring to Sanders’s record on gun-control legislation.
Sanders appeared to shy away from the fight, saying he wasn’t interested in “arguing about definitions.” But as Clinton continued to criticize him as a “self-proclaimed gatekeeper” of progressivism, Sanders responded by saying he “walked the walk.”
When Sanders said he didn’t have a super-political action committee or take “huge sums of money,” the audience cheered.

This exhaust is amazing! my car runs more smooth now and sound is incredible at downshift.
Great hood for my AP1. the hood is not lighter than stock but I got it for the carbon look & it fits pretty darn good.
I bought my 94 civic cat back and it works good for me. I am not sure if my car is going faster now but it sounded darn good now.lol

These Shoulder Screws, often known as shoulder bolts, are a kind of fastener having a cylindrical head and a threaded shank. They feature a shoulder that runs from the head to the shank which is machined to a precise tolerance. Shoulder screws are commonly used to connect two components, with the shoulder acting as a bearing surface.
Shoulder Screws are appropriate for applications requiring a mounting pin, dowel, joint, shaft, or sliding motion.
This range of Shoulder Screws features a slotted head, which allows them to be driven with a slotted screwdriver. They are magnetic and have excellent shear resistance, although they corrode somewhat more easily than conventional shoulder screws. These screws are suitable for electronics, machinery, automotive and construction applications.
Plastic Slotted Set Screws are utilised in many applications that require a secure and non-marring connection. These set screws have a plastic slotted head and offer distinct benefits over standard metal set screws.
Its high corrosion resistance makes these screws appropriate for use in locations where moisture, chemicals, or other corrosive substances are present. Furthermore, the plastic head is non-conductive, making it suitable for electrical shielding applications. This keeps the screws from shorting out or interfering with delicate electronic components.
It is designed to be simple to install and adjust with a flat head screwdriver due to the slotted head. Commonly used in industries such as electronics, automotive, and furniture manufacturing. | [
