The story got interesting at the end, but otherwise I felt it was drawn out. There were way too many story lines going on and too many characters.
A fun, light read. Perfect summer read!
A very unique and interesting read. Read in two days, I didn‘t want to stop!
Such a sweet read that I could not put down! | [

An interesting Op-Ed on the ethics of eating meat.
Animals convert calories that human can't eat (such as grass) or prefer not to eat (such as grubs) into calories humans want to eat (such as chicken).I have made that case before (well at least to myself when that hamburger looks sooo good). If an animal gets to live a good (although a little short) life, what is wrong with eating it? And, if the whole world went vegan, we would not be able to take advantage of the ruminants ability to turn grasses that we can't digest into milk and meat that we can.
But there's a strong case that giving a farm animal a happy life making a constructive environmental contribution and slaughtering it humanely to feed people is ethical. Even animal rights hard-liner Peter Singer, in "The Way We Eat" (co-authored with Jim Mason), can't condemn "the view that it is ethical to eat animals who have lived good lives and would not have existed at all." He concludes that it's "more appropriate to praise" this relatively enlightened view than to criticize it for not being the veganism he prefers.
Every time I see pictures of Ethiopia, I wonder how can people live there? It is only by having goats or cattle that can eat plants that we can't are they able to live there. Speaking of Ethiopia, the Economist has a nice, er make that depressing, look at the Horn of Africa. All I can say is that it sucks to be them.
On the other hand, not eating the meat would allow for more wild animals to exist. Instead of raising a cow, that same land could support a wild buffalo. Or you could raise the cow but instead of eating it allow another carnivore like a bear, mountain lion or a tiger to eat it instead. There is a trade off between how well we as humans want to eat and how large the population of other wild animals, especially carnivores, on earth can be. In a way it is like vegetarians and other low calorie eaters are donating their "uneaten" calories to nature.
Speaking of tigers, this article has an interesting take on how to protect them from going extinct. Farm them like cows or goats and sell their products.
For instance, there are perhaps 1.5 billion head of cattle and buffalo and 2 billion goats and sheep in the world today. These are among the most exploited of animals, yet they are not in danger of dying out; there is incentive, in these instances, for humans to conserve.Reminds me of salmon, where humans run salmon hatcheries to make sure enough young salmon make it back to the ocean each year. I don't know if this scheme would work, but the idea of actively managing the tiger population to help their numbers increase sounds good to me. If you breed extra to allow for more hunting, but their population increase, fine by me.
Wildlife farming and ranching could potentially break the poverty trap that most forest villagers find themselves in. In Zimbabwe, before the current spiral into chaos, villagers had property rights on the wildlife in the forests around them, and they earned revenue by selling a limited number of hunting licenses.
But tiger-breeding facilities will ensure a supply of wildlife at an affordable price, and so eliminate the incentive for poachers and, consequently, the danger for those tigers left in the wild. According to senior officials I met in China, given a free hand, the country could produce 100,000 tigers in the next 10 to 15 years.
Given the growing popularity of traditional Chinese medicines, which make use of everything from tiger claws (to treat insomnia) to tiger fat (leprosy and rheumatism), and the prices this kind of harvesting can bring (as much as $20 for claws, and $20,000 for a skin), the tiger can in effect pay for its own survival. A single farmed specimen might fetch as much as $40,000; the retail value of all the tiger products might be three to five times that amount.
But wait you say, the tiger is a wild animal, it could never be tamed. Think again.
Of the planet’s estimated 5,000 wild tigers, about 75 percent are in India, which, like most nations, believes that commerce and conservation are incompatible. Only a relative handful of tigers — probably a few dozen — can be found in China’s forests. (The United States is home to some 10,000 tigers, owned by zoos and private citizens.) The tiger, in short, is still staring at extinction. | [

SALT LAKE CITY — Even as Utah health officials and hospitals deal with ever-growing COVID-19 case counts, some residents remain upset about the statewide mask mandate and other temporary restrictions recently put in place by Gov. Gary Herbert and the Utah Department of Health.
Under the public health order that went into effect Nov. 9, casual social gatherings between people of separate households are halted until Nov. 23, as well as most extracurricular activities except for intercollegiate athletic events and high school athletic championship games and practices.
On Sunday, Utah health officials reported 2,667 additional COVID-19 cases and eight deaths. The new cases were confirmed out of 10,485 people tested, with a 25.4% positive rate, according to the Utah Department of Health. The rolling seven-day average for new cases is 2,985 per day, and the average positive test rate is 24.34%.

Evidence strongly supports the important role of insulin resistance in cognitive decline and dementia and suggests that insulin sensitizers may protect against cognitive decline in diabetic and pre-diabetic individuals. Inconclusive results have been reported in clinical trials of rosiglitazone, an insulin sensitizer that also increases cardiovascular mortality risks. No study has yet reported a protective cognitive effect of metformin, an insulin-sensitizing biguanide widely used in diabetic patients. We studied 365 older persons aged 55 and over in the population-based Singapore Longitudinal Aging Study with diabetes who were followed up over 4 years. The odds ratios (OR) of association of metformin use (n = 204) versus non-use (n = 161) with cognitive impairment (Mini-Mental State Exam ≤ 23), and by duration: up to 6 years (n = 114) and more than 6 years (n = 90) were evaluated in cross-sectional and longitudinal multivariate analyses. Controlling for age, education, diabetes duration, fasting blood glucose, vascular and non-vascular risk factors, metformin use showed a significant inverse association with cognitive impairment in longitudinal analysis (OR = 0.49, 95% CI 0.25-0.95). Metformin use showed significant linear trends of association across duration of use in cross-sectional and longitudinal analyses (p = 0.018 and p = 0.002, respectively), with use for more than 6 years significantly associated with lowest risk of cognitive impairment in both cross-sectional analysis (OR = 0.30, 95% CI 0.11-0.80) and in longitudinal analysis (OR = 0.27, 95% CI 0.12-0.60). No significant interactive effects of metformin use with APOE-ε4, depression, or fasting glucose level were observed. Among individuals with diabetes, long-term treatment with metformin may reduce the risk of cognitive decline. Further studies should establish the role of hyperglycemia and insulin resistance, and the protective role of metformin in the risk of cognitive decline and dementia.

“When this aircraft appeared on the scene the British were unable to put anything in the sky to effectively counter it. It was the most maneuverable WWII aircraft ever produced, and with its higher top speed and climb rate, it could decide when and where to fight. The aircraft is just so beautiful to experience. The visuals and sound just make cruising anywhere so enjoyable, but it is a true thoroughbred performer. Like all of our aircraft built with Absolute Realism technology, every variant performs exactly as it should in all flight regimes. Watch the forums (www.shockwaveproductions.com/forum) for screenshots and the latest developments,” said Tim Gallagher of Shockwave Productions.
Built with “Absolute realism” flight technology
Can be flown “by the book”
Built with rare historical flight test reports
“Absolute Realism” means the entire flight envelope is modeled via the actual pilot’s training manuals
Authentic cruise performance under various conditions with realistic fuel economy
Absolute Realism even delivers authentic “distance-to-altitude” performance under various power settings
High engine torque means full power cannot be applied with brakes on or aircraft will “nose over”
Gorgeously constructed aircraft, inside and out, down to the last rivet
Professionally recorded and mastered engine sounds
Realistic, deep radial engine characteristics captured inside and out at all power levels
Stall buffet, canopy, ground roll, flaps, gyro, and authentic cockpit wind
Both modern and veteran warbird pilots helped create the “feel” of flight
“Wings of Power “Special Effects” package includes:
Historically accurate lighting for stunning nighttime visuals
Realistic startup visuals modeled after the real aircraft
Belly landings with realistic effects and physics programming
Additional Wings of Power information can be found at www.shockwaveproductions.com

I’ve completely re-written my ActionScript function. For those who are hearing about it for the first time ActionScript(Object, ‘name_of_the_variable’) – gets complete reusable actionscript string of the Object including circular references.
Now it takes care of special characters in properties and also shows null values properly
Now the actionscript produced is more readable. See the following example for better understanding.
It Produces the following output

The latest EBA stress tests did not include promotional actions or failures, but were used to confirm the distribution of a large loan such as Intesa Sanpaolo, which in the third quarter increased nine months to 3 billion, and banks less wide and therefore more exposed in the event of shock or recession.
For Italian institutions, in the case of the "unfavorable" scenario, the test results remain within the range of 2.2% of Intesa's risk assets at 4.5% for Banco Bpm. Not only that. As mentioned on the Lavoce.info website, Andrea Resti, Bocconi's lecturer and adviser to the European Parliament for banking supervision, the latest tests do not provide data from the national authorities' banks and details of sovereign exposures that would allow simulation of the effect of a further margin on margin (yesterday closed to 300 basis points). In December, EBA will publish more detailed information on the 130 large banking groups in the EU (against 48 on November 2), which will be complemented by exposures to the states and updated in June. Meanwhile, Vice-President De Guindos said on Monday that fragile banks would have to strengthen their banks in terms of capital. And yesterday, Nomura analysts in the report used the ECB's third Tltro proposal (long-term interest rate subsidy) that would "do well for Italian institutions" because it would reduce the risk of contagion if it were to be implemented under liquidity tensions. The first Tltro program was in June 2014 and the second in March 2016: the loans will be due from June 2020 to March 2021 for a total of 740 billion and approximately 30% of this amount was requested by Italian banks.
Those who will not be afraid of new stress are Intesa Sanpaolo, which responds to a "sale" that Goldman Sachs gathered on Thursday with a healthy quarter: In the first nine months, the Carl Messina Group earned a net profit of over 3 billion (+ 26% last year). The results of the third quarter also grew with a profit of 833 million (650 million in September 2017). This figure is better than the consensus of analysts predicting a profit of 791 million. Meanwhile, the bank's position on Italian sovereign bonds remains stable with an exposure of EUR 28.1 billion. Although the spread spread had a negative impact on capital by 45 points, the institute also has a sound financial position. During the presentation of the accounts yesterday, the bank also responded to the situation in Italy as a "fireman" by responding to the analyst: "It is true that there were situations that could be better communicated by the government, but also by the EU Commission", and in any case " is something other than this if someone wants to do a stress test other than Eba, but the reality of the basics is different, there are no Armageddon scenarios, and if we want to see the end of the world, we go to the cinema.

The Recruit is a pretty basic 84mm Swiss Army Knife. It has only 2 layers and it has no back side tools. This one is an uncommon version, the Serrated Recruit. It has a fully serrated large blade.
I believe this model was aimed at the North American market; mine came in a Swiss Army Brands Ltd. box. | [

Kolkata Knight Riders v Sunrisers Hyderabad – Betting Tips and Prediction
Here are three more cricket betting tips for today’s match to help you along the way. These IPL tips are based on the best odds and our years of experience in backing player form and trends.
Rely on Russell to Be the Top Batsman for KKR
Andre Russell is arguably still batting to low in the KKR order. But whenever he arrives at the crease, he’s looking in good shape at Funbet’s price of 5.0 to be the top batsman for Kolkata.
We’ve seen him go big time and time again. Russell, being an all-rounder, is also a good pick in Funbet’s player of the match and top bowler markets.
Select Shankar to Be the Top Bowler for Hyderabad
Vijay Shankar is one of the local lads impressing at SRH. He probably should have bowled more against the Super Kings after taking the key wicket of half-centurion Devdutt Padikkal.
LeoVegas have priced Shankar at 6.5 to be the top bowler for the Sunrisers here. Like Russell, he’s an all-rounder, so features at competitive cricket odds in their player of the match and top batsman markets, too.
Back More Than Runs in Their First Three Overs For Each Team
22Bet continue to be quite inventive with their markets for the IPL. This time, they have each team to score over five runs in each of their first three overs at 8.5.
That’s a bet well worth taking and could bring great value. The Sunrisers and Knight Riders have top-order batsmen who can get stuck straight in during the opening six-over powerplay.

Personal ads. They’re … personal! Very.
My brother and I have a thing we call SMOPL.
It stands for Something Meaningful On a Personal Level.
We use this term for a lot of things, but most often it comes up in the context of trying to reconcile our discomfort with religion (ours and in general) with our love of ritual and the desire to have some sort of connection to our complicated tribe.
So we take bits and pieces, and allow a SMOPL to emerge.
Sometimes we opt out of tradition, and make it a SMOPL. Sometimes we opt in, and just switch things up, and then that’s our SMOPL.
What do I want?
To choose towards SMOPL. To live in SMOPL.
To be true to my desire in a much deeper way than before, checking in to make sure I’m choosing something that feeds me, choosing from love and not from perceived obligation.
This year when yom kipur came around I really felt the need for comfort, with all the painful things that have been going on. I just didn’t really, really didn’t feel up to to leaving the house, or being around people.
Sam came to keep me company, and we did two hours of sweet slow yoga, in the dark, with just the sound of our breath for company.
We set our intentions and each breath was intention, and everything about it was perfect. I was able to access such a deep peacefulness and knowing, to fill up on the well of me. It was such a clear example of No, Really, This Is Right.
I got all the things I needed and even some of the things I didn’t know that I needed:
Quieting, peace, clarity, sweetness, trust, a renewed sense of faith, deep trust in the my own process as a human being and in the bigger process of this life, a thank you heart of appreciation and gratitude, a re-committing to life and aliveness.
SMOPL is always the right answer for me, sometimes that is hard to remember.
The tango lesson.
I had signed up for Portland Tango Fest this weekend, and then my mother went into the ICU and from there into hospice, and she died Thursday night.
I sat on a couch in the corner while the tango lesson was happening, and couldn’t dance, couldn’t get into it. Tango is not my dance anyway, not yet at least, and it requires an intensity of focus when I had none.
So I sat there and watched people dance. I didn’t watch the way I would watch, as a dancer. I watched the way my mother would watch. I noticed color, texture, interesting faces, little human moments.
I imagined her smiling over things she found beautiful, silly, playful, surprising.
One of the tango instructors was this very small, very charming guy from Buenos Aires, amazing dancer. At one point he said, “Do you know, I always want to be this tall big black guy with an afro and a boom box, like, funky, like uh huh uh huh uh huh uh huh, and it isn’t fair, god made me short and white and like this, so I have to cultivate the attitude of what I want, to feel sexy and move like how I imagine I am, this is tango.”
She would have liked that, I think.
My mother loved watching argentine tango, one of her favorite movies was called The Tango Lesson, and she’d fast forward through the drama to watch the dance scenes, so I feel certain she would have gotten a kick out of being a fly on the wall in that workshop.
And I had suddenly this idea of SMOPLing the entire mourning process by doing things she liked.
What if that becomes my process of grief.
Maybe instead of [some of the traditional things that do not speak to me], my brother and I could instead choose things she would like and do those.
Like watch tango and eat soup and sleep in. What else did she do?
Watch her happy movies (The Tango Lesson. Strictly Ballroom. 50 First Dates.) Stay in bed until eleven. Enjoy flowers. Be in the garden. People-watch. Make up back-stories about people in advertisements. Read a book last-chapter-first.
Ez: Yeah, and we could watch just the fun scenes in movies.
Me: Or go to something really late, like, show up right before it ends. Or make random changes in our homes.
Ez: Yes. Hahaha. I like this plan.
Me: Or take a hundred books out of the library on one topic.
Ez: Wait, I already do that.
Me: Okay, I can | [

ETH Zurich (Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich) is one of the world’s leading universities of technology and natural sciences. Countless scientists of international standing have contributed their intellect since the foundation of ETH Zurich in 1855, while 21 of them have won a Nobel Prize.
The increasing complexity of the European electricity network and a liberalised electricity market are resulting in rapid changes in the load flow. This dynamic can have serious consequences, including a blackout. Given the essential role played by Switzerland as a transit country for electricity, it is critical that the secure conducting of electricity is optimised continuously.
The maximum current carrying capacity of a line is also determined by the thermal limit of the conductors. In a world-first project, Swissgrid is working together with ETH Zurich, EMPA and meteorological services, using state-of-the-art methods of measurement on the transmission grid line and in the laboratory, to gain important insights into the maximum current carrying capacity and the ageing behaviour of conductors to ensure the security of the grid in the future.
Another joint research project between Swissgrid and ETH Zurich, as part of a project for the Swiss National Science Foundation and in cooperation with additional partners, is investigating the potential of the alternative transmission concept of direct/alternating-current hybrid lines as well as their feasibility in Switzerland, in compliance with all the specific requirements. Hybrid lines would allow existing routes to be used to transport higher transmission capacities without major renovations. This could be a solution for the Swiss transmission grid, which is already reaching its limits.
Innovation is a priority at Swissgrid. We are constantly working on gaining new insights, new methods of operation and technologies across all areas. This also applies for education.
In cooperation with the School of Engineering and Architecture of Fribourg, Swissgrid has developed Switzerland's first certified vocational training course for system operators, the CAS “Electrical energy systems – system operation”. Operators must always make the right decisions in a complex environment, with changing interfaces, technologies and tools, often under time pressure, while keeping an eye on grid security and efficiency and ensuring optimal responses in normal as well as hectic situations. The new course provides optimal preparation for these challenges.
At the same time, Swissgrid is also implementing a nationwide Training & Simulation Centre to train and educate personnel in the control centres of the transmission and distribution grid and in power plants. Realistic computer simulations of the system operation as well as grid faults and grid failures can be implemented with the aid of models and the replication of the Swiss electricity grids. The focus is on practicing situational assessments, fault limitation measures and restoring a secure grid status.
Swissgrid issues tenders every week to procure control power for secure grid operation. The surcharges are granted using an algorithm, which determines the costs/quantity and quality. In 2015, Swissgrid was able to optimise this algorithm so that the results are now available within one to two minutes instead of 40 minutes. The time gained gives Swissgrid more latitude in case of unexpected events or control processes and, for instance, reduces financial risks.
The frequency measurement values are important for balancing the Swiss control area and for monitoring the grid frequency. This information can be used to ensure a consistently high level of control quality in Switzerland. The operator in the grid control room can also promptly detect at-risk or disrupted circumstances and act accordingly. In 2015, Swissgrid commissioned a prototype for high-precision frequency measurement: frequency is not only measured in the control centre in Laufenburg, but in five other substations across all regions of Switzerland. This increases robustness and redundancy, as adequate measurements for subsequent grid restoration are now also available in the event of a grid breakdown in isolated grids. | [

Leading up to the Paris Climate Change conference at the end of November, the International Society for Reef Studies has prepared a consensus statement (authored by Ove Hoegh-Guldberg of the University of Queensland, with Mark Eakin, Reef Check's Gregor Hodgson and Charlie Veron, and reviewed by a large team) on the current scientific view of the impact of climate change on coral reefs. The conclusion of this group is that the targets being proposed for Paris will NOT reduce greenhouse gas emission NOR limit temperature rise to the degree required to prevent widespread coral reef decline in the foreseeable future. The rapidly developing Global Coral Bleaching Event, which threatens to be more serious than even the 1998 event, likely heralds further severe decline of coral reefs as a result of climate change.

Parents have a financial responsibility to their children whether the parents are married or unmarried.
There are two methods by which the resident parent can obtain child maintenance. The first is by way of an agreement between the parents as to the specific amount of maintenance based on both parents’ income, their financial circumstances and the needs of the child. Parents may also agree to contribute to additional expenses for the child such as school trips, school uniforms and dentist and doctor’s fees.
If the parents are unable to reach an agreement regarding child maintenance, the resident parent may wish to make an application to the court. Both parents will be required by the Court to complete forms disclosing their finances and their assets. Once the forms have been exchanged, the non-resident parent’s lawyer will calculate the amount of child maintenance payable per child, per week based on the non-resident parent’s financial circumstances. The rate will usually be in line with the UK Child Support Agency Guidelines (the “CSA guidelines”).
The guideline amounts set by the CSA are as follows:
Although the Jersey Courts are not bound by the CSA guidelines, the Courts will take into account the guidance of the CSA which is often a good starting point when calculating child maintenance. In addition to the CSA guidelines, the Court will also take into account any issues as to affordability and will consider both parties’ outgoings and liabilities.
Once the Court has made a decision as to the level of maintenance payable, the decision will be reflected in an Order of the Court which is binding on both parties. Should the non-resident party default, the resident parent may enforce the order in the Petty Debts Court.

Institute will relish the challenge of trying to stop Crusaders goal machines Jordan Owens and Paul Heatley at Seaview today, according to manager Paddy McLaughlin.
After an inconsistent opening to the campaign, the Crues now look to be firing on all cylinders with the brilliant Owens and Heatley hitting the target on a regular basis.
Last weekend the deadly duo netted stunning goals in a 3-0 home success over Glenavon as Stephen Baxter's side claimed a fourth victory in succession.
"We are going to the home of the champions and it will be tough," admitted McLaughlin.
"They began the season in stop-start fashion but they have shown over the last few weeks what they are all about.
"Jordan Owens and Paul Heatley are in great form and we know it will be difficult, yet we have to embrace the challenge and look forward to it.
"I always knew that Crusaders would come good. You don't win the league one season and become a bad side the next. Even the best teams can go through a sticky few weeks and then it's about character, and they have displayed that. They are definitely back in the mix."
Institute have impressed in the top flight this season but are experiencing their first run of defeats, having lost four in a row, including three in the league.
"We played Coleraine, Dungannon - where we felt the defeat was a harsh because a big penalty decision went against us - and then Linfield. Now we have Crusaders, so it's a tough run of games but this is why we worked so hard last season to get promoted.
"We want to play against the best teams and the best players in the country," says McLaughlin, who along with assistant Brian Donaghy will sit in the stands today due to suspension after words with referee Keith Kennedy after the loss to Dungannon.
"The boys haven't let their heads go down, and they understand we are underdogs every week we play, but they enjoy the challenge and are determined to get points back on the board as soon as possible." | [

Held to coincide with Armory Arts Week in New York, Sotheby’s "Contemporary Curated" auction, on March 2, is primarily geared toward new collectors, offering a lineup of blue-chip works by top postwar and contemporary artists at less prohibitive prices. This year the auction house recruited siblings and society fixtures Jill Kargman, author and star of Bravo’s Odd Mom Out, and Will Kopelman, a leading art adviser, to select pieces they admire for the sale. Kargman and Kopelman were introduced to fine art during childhood, when, as neighbors of Andy Warhol, they would visit galleries with their mother and father, Arie Kopelman, the former president and COO of Chanel. For the upcoming auction, the siblings chose pieces by Edvard Munch, Ed Ruscha, and Josef Albers, among others.
“Jill and I share a passion for art and collecting, and so working with Sotheby’s on the Contemporary Curated sale was a really fun sibling collaboration for us," says Kopelman. "The auction has something for everybody with a great range of artists, styles, and price points.”
Watch a video of the siblings talking about their appreciation for art here.
See some of the siblings’ respective selections for the Sotheby’s sale, alongside quotes about their picks, here. | [

With the State Electricity Regulatory Commission finalising norms for open access facility for power purchase, the Kerala State Electricity Board (KSEB) is looking at special energy meters for accurately measuring the electricity thus procured. Following a request by EHT (Extra High Tension) consumers, the KSEB is preparing a list of efficient models of ‘Availability-Based Tariff’ (ABT) meters and also specifications so that consumers can procure them on their own if needed.
The matter was discussed between the KSEB and the high-end industrial consumers (who generally fall in the EHT category). Open access allows consumers to procure electricity from distributors other than the KSEB, using the transmission facilities of the KSEB.
“To put it in a nutshell, ABT meters will allow the KSEB to accurately measure the power procured by a consumer through normal KSEB channels and via open access,” KSEB chief engineer (commercial and tariff) Dinesh D said.
On the other hand, the Time-of-Day (ToD) meters, the other special energy meters which the KSEB has in place, measures the consumption during off-peak hour and peak hour time zones. | [

Government of Canada issues Interim Order and signs agreement with whale watching association to further support recovery of Southern Resident killer whales
May 27, 2019 Vancouver – Transport Canada
The Government of Canada recognizes that Southern Resident killer whales face imminent threats to their survival and recovery – and has implemented additional measures to save these endangered marine mammals.
On May 10, 2019, the Government announced a suite of new measures to be implemented this summer that help address the key threats of lack of prey, and acoustic and physical disturbance. Today, the Government of Canada issued an Interim Order, effective June 1, 2019, to protect whales from vessel disturbance.
The Interim Order will be in place until October 31, 2019.
As of June 1, 2019:
- All vessels are prohibited from approaching any killer whale within a 400-metre distance. This prohibition applies throughout the Southern Resident killer whale critical habitat.
- Recognizing their specialized knowledge to identify different species, commercial whale watch operators and eco-tourism companies that demonstrate a commitment to environmental conservation may apply for authorization from the Minister of Transport to approach non-Southern Resident killer whales to a distance of 200 metres.
- Vessels are prohibited from entering areas newly designated as Interim Sanctuary Zones. These zones are located at Swiftsure Bank, off the east coast of Saturna Island, and south-west of North Pender Island. Some exemptions are provided for emergency response vessels and Indigenous persons engaged in certain activities.
The population of Southern Resident killer whales is small and declining, with only 75 remaining, and they are exposed to a number of serious threats, including underwater noise and disturbance from vessels. Given the imminent threats whales are facing, the Government is also asking vessel operators to respect the following voluntary measures:
- Respect a “Go Slow” zone around whales by reducing speed to less than 7 knots when within 1,000 metres of a whale in the Enhanced Management Areas that have been identified through the Gulf Islands, the Strait of Juan de Fuca and the Mouth of the Fraser River; and
- Reduce noise by turning echo sounders off when not in use and turning engines to neutral idle when within 400 metres of a whale.
As a sign of leadership, the Pacific Whale Watch Association signed an agreement today demonstrating its commitment to refrain from offering tours on Southern Resident killer whales, as well as taking other stewardship actions. On the basis of the exemption outlined above, the Association’s members will receive authorization from the Minister of Transport allowing them to approach non-Southern Resident killer whales to a distance of 200 metres within Southern Resident killer whale critical habitat. Other whale watch operators and eco-tourism companies willing to undertake similar measures for the protection of Southern Resident killer whales may equally apply for this authorization.
Environmental stewardship is a shared responsibility of all Canadians. This agreement demonstrates the strong, ongoing commitment and collaboration between industry, environmental groups and the Government of Canada, among others, to support the protection and recovery of endangered Southern Resident killer whales.
Building on the $1.5 billion Oceans Protection Plan, last year the Government of Canada introduced the $167.4 million Whales Initiative to protect and support the recovery of three at-risk whale species: the Southern Resident killer whales; the North Atlantic right whale; and the St. Lawrence Estuary beluga whale. In October 2018, an additional, $61.5 million was dedicated to address threats to the Southern Resident killer whale. These initiatives support the recovery of Canada’s endangered whale populations by addressing the main threats they face: lack of prey, noise and physical disturbance from vessels, vessel strikes, and pollution from land-based sources.
“Today’s agreement furthers our Whales Initiative by putting in place additional protective measures that help in the recovery of the Southern Resident killer whale. Through the support of vessel operators, our coasts and marine species are protected more than ever. I want to thank everyone who has provided their expert advice and support in this collaborative effort.”
The Honourable Marc Garneau
Minister of Transport
“We continue to build on our commitment to protect the Southern Resident killer whales by working collaboratively with industry associations to advance our efforts. We commend the Pacific Whale Watch Association for showing leadership in minimizing vessel noise and reducing the disturbance on this iconic species. "
Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of Transport
“For 25 years, PWWA members have supported science-based efforts and research to understand and limit the effect of vessel traffic on killer whales. The realities on our shared waterways include vessels in size from three metres to 300 metres. Today, we alert military, passenger, shipping, and recreational vessels when they are unaware of whales in an area. We remain the quietest vessels on the water, and the sentinels of the sea for whales through our science-based vessel management plan. PWWA members educate passengers and drive conservation efforts with every trip."

The film begins with a flashback of Yashvardhan "Yash" Raichand (Amitabh Bachchan), a wealthy businessman, and his wife Nandini (Jaya Bachchan) adopting a young orphan named Rahul as their son. They also have a biological son named Rohan, who is much younger than Rahul. Yash and Nandini love both their sons equally and raise them with great care and affection. Rahul grows up to be a successful and charming man, while Rohan is a cheerful and playful boy.
Yash decides to arrange Rahul's marriage with his friend's daughter Naina (Rani Mukerji), who is also in love with Rahul. However, Rahul falls in love with Anjali Sharma (Kajol), a lively and spirited girl from a lower-middle-class family. Anjali has a younger sister named Pooja "Poo" Sharma (Kareena Kapoor), who is very fashionable and modern. Rahul and Anjali get married secretly with the help of Anjali's father Bauji (Alok Nath) and her friend Sayeeda (Farida Jalal). When Yash finds out about this, he is furious and disowns Rahul for marrying a girl of his choice. He also forbids Nandini and Rohan from having any contact with Rahul and Anjali.
Rahul and Anjali move to London, where they start a new life with Pooja, who joins them later. They have a son named Krish (Jibraan Khan), who is very close to his parents and aunt. Nandini misses Rahul terribly and hopes that he will return someday. Rohan grows up to be a handsome and smart young man, who is unaware of his brother's existence. He studies in a boarding school and returns home for his father's birthday.
On his birthday, Yash receives a letter from Rahul, which he burns without reading. Nandini secretly reads the letter and learns that Rahul has named his son after Yash's father Krishnaraj Raichand (Achala Sachdev), who is in a coma. She also sees a photo of Rahul's family and feels happy for him. She decides to tell Rohan the truth about his brother and asks him to bring him back home. Rohan agrees to do so and leaves for London without telling anyone.
In London, Rohan meets Pooja at a shopping mall and pretends to be in love with her to get close to her family. He also befriends Krish at his school and learns that he is Rahul's son. He then meets Rahul at his office and introduces himself as Yash's nephew. He also meets Anjali at their home and bonds with her. He tries to convince Rahul to forgive his father and return to India, but Rahul refuses to do so. He tells Rohan that he loves his father, but he cannot forget the pain and humiliation that he caused him and Anjali.
Rohan then devises a plan to reunite the family. He invites Yash and Nandini to London for his graduation ceremony and | [

04 Apr 2016 Student News Bulletin
This week, new research published in The Lancet predicts that one fifth of adults will be obese by 2025; we see the start of IBS Awareness Month and we look at new research examining the risk of fructose consumption during pregnancy on male offspring.
New study predicts that by 2025 one fifth of all adults will be obese
Research carried out by scientists at Imperial College London and published in April’s issue of The Lancet has been at the forefront of health news reported by media this week. The study, which compared the BMI data of more than 19 million adult men and women between 1974 and 2014, found that obesity has tripled in men and more than doubled in women.
April is IBS Awareness Month
In 1997 the International Foundation for Functional Gastrointestinal Disorders (IFFGD) designated April as IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome) Awareness Month. Worldwide prevelance of IBS is estimated to be between 9 and 23%, yet many people remain undiagnosed and unaware that this is a medically recognised disorder. #IBSAwarenessMonth
New research shows effects of in utero fructose-rich diet on male offspring
The study, published in March 2016, measured the effects of high fructose consumption in pregnant rats on their male offspring, throughout their lifespan. Researchers concluded that high fructose consumption by pregnant mothers, primes the first male generation with a high risk of developing metabolic syndrome, obesity and type two diabetes.

Our team was contacted by Mike and Skip of Southern Boating Magazine in 2017 regarding their interest in a marine ceramic coating to protect their 2007 31' dark blue hulled Jupiter. Considering their passion for fishing and routine trips out in the ocean exposing their boat to the harsh elements here in South Florida, they wanted to take the opportunity to try a different approach from traditional buff and wax.
For this particular case study, we are going to showcase the initial process from July 2017 and provide you with a marine ceramic coating review after 21 months here in South Florida.
As the manufacturer and applicator of marine ceramic coatings, our goal is to continually educate you as the boat owner about the advantages of ceramic coatings and how it can protect your investment. The case studies and updates of the boats is one of the ways we look to assist.

- Length Overall:
- Ceramic Coating To:
- Hull, Transom, Top Side, Gunwales & Fish Boxes
- Pompano, FL
Marine grade ceramic coatings are becoming more popular within the industry and for fellow boat owners.
More and more companies are offering a range of products either spray on products like our Marine Shine & Shield, or a more longer lasting applications such as our professional grade marine marine ceramic coating.
When attempting to parse through all of the options in the market, we feel it is best to inquire about real life results. Here at Glidecoat, we have completed over two years of laboratory development, running a number of tests from extreme UV (up to 2 years) and salt spray testing to confirm the ceramic coating would meet our expectations.
Once, the laboratory results were completed in early 2015, we began the process of applying our ceramic coating, here in South Florida, which, is one of the harshest conditions in North America. By applying our ceramic coating to various boats, we then had the ability to track the entire process and more importantly the real life results over time.
To provide transparency on the performance of the Glidecoat ceramic coating, we routinely check back in with completed boats to showcase the results. This brings back to the 2007 31' Jupiter.
The initial marine ceramic coating application was completed in July of 2017 and after 21 months, we returned to the boat to take photos and gloss meter readings to show the results.
Initial Marine Ceramic Coating Application - July 2017
For an older boat (2007), this boat was in relatively good shape as a number of factors contributed to that;
1). The boat is stored indoors when not in use
2). Before the marine ceramic coating application, the boat would receive routine buff and wax
For the initial marine ceramic coating application, our team completed the;
• Top side including the fish boxes
After completing the application back in 2017, the gloss meter readings jumped well into the 90's and looked amazing.
After the marine ceramic coating application, the gloss meter readings on the hull registered at 98.
The top side is typically more time consuming to complete a ceramic coating application and more exposed to the elements. During the initial application, the gloss meter readings jumped to the high 80's and low 90's.
Ceramic Coating Results After 21 Months
We returned back to the boat April 30th, 2019 to take photos and gloss meter readings to provide an update. On average, over the course of 18 months we anticipate, an approximate 15 - 20% drop in the gloss meter readings from the initial application.
As shown in the photos listed above, the highest gloss meter reading on the hull back in July 2017 was 98. After nearly two years, the gloss meter readings registered at 84. Right inline with our expectations and as an FYI, readings in the 80's is typical of factory new boats.
For the top side, the gloss meter readings were registering in the low 80's. | [

Decades Behind Bars
A 20-Year Conversation with Men in America’s Prisons
About the Book
More than two million people are incarcerated in America’s prisons—one in nine is serving a life sentence. Mass long-term imprisonment devours state budgets, adversely affects community well-being and skews our collective moral compass. This study examines the human costs of keeping the convicted out of sight, out of mind.
Beginning in 1994, the author began recording the personal stories of 50 incarcerated felons—17 of them were still in prison 20 years later. The men candidly discuss what it means to commit a serious crime and to be confined for perhaps the remainder of their lives. Their stories are balanced by conversations with correctional officers, prison administrators, chaplains and parole board members. The author identifies circumstances that ruin some prisoners and save others and presents insights for possible improvements in the criminal justice system.

A man was killed in a tragic accident after he was mowed down and killed by a Boeing 737 as it took off at Moscow’s Sheremetyevo airport.
The 25-year-old man — identified as Albert Yepremyan — was deported from Spain and was going to his home country Armenia when he fled the terminal during a layover in Moscow, a Daily Mail report said.
Shortly before take off, the pilot operating the Athens-bound Boeing 737 flight reported that the aircraft has hit an “animal” on the runway at the Sheremetyevo airport runway. The aircraft suffered no damages and it was decided not to abort the flight because the systems did not detect or register any problems at the time of take off.
After the runway was inspected on November 20, a dead body, along with the man’s possessions, was found. The Russian Investigative Committee released a footage which shows the macabre torchlight search on the runway, the report said.
According to Russia’s Interfax news agency, the man was deported from Madrid on Tuesday, November 20 and was due to take a flight from Moscow to the Armenian capital Yerevan. Police in Moscow had been informed that the passenger had been deported from Madrid and the flight crew had reported that the man caused disturbances on the aircraft.
It was reported that the 25-year-old passenger attacked a male member of the cabin crew on the Madrid flight, an airport source said.
“As soon as the man left the plane in Moscow, his fate was unknown. He did not cross the border into Russia.”
Per another local report, the man — who had been residing in Barcelona — was on a terminal bus to be taken to the Yerevan bound flight when he escaped.
The Boeing 737 was later grounded after landing in Athens after some “biological material” was found on its wheels. Although no further details were provided about the aircraft in question, local reports said that the plane also received damage to its main body.
Following the tragic accident, the Russian Investigative Committee took to Twitter and said that the “the 25-year-old somehow ended up on the runway where a Boeing 737 plane inflicted deadly injuries on him during takeoff.”
Alexander Neradko — the head of Russia’s aviation watchdog — told Russian agencies that the “plane was operated by Russian flagship carrier Aeroflot”, per the Daily Mail.
In a video posted on Twitter, investigators said parts of the man’s coat and a shoelace were found among the fragments scattered on the runway. Per the report, no official criminal investigation has been launched yet.

Chennai : Kumar Rajendran, MGR’s grandson and Chennai-based advocate, has appealed to Sri Lankan Prime Minister Ranil Wickramasinghe to build a suitable memorial for former Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu MG Ramachandran in his city of birth – Kandy in Sri Lanka.
Rajendran was part of a high-level delegation from Tamil Nadu that met Ranil Wickramasinghe in Temple Trees, his official residence in Colombo. Rajendran said his family was ready to install a bronze statue of the late leader in his hometown in the memorial. Besides statue, he will provide all the photos of MGR’s visit to Sri Lanka along with actress Saroja Devi to build a photo exhibition in the memorial.
Kumar Rajendran told the Sri Lankan Prime Minister such a noble gesture would develop deeper ties between the two nations and promote tourism into Sri Lanka. “People still regard MGR as god and thousands of his fans visit his final resting place at the Marina. If a memorial is built in Kandy, it would attract thousands of his fans from all over the world,” he said. Kumar Rajendran honored Sri Lankan Prime Minister with a silk shawl with MGR photo inscribed on it.
Ranil Wickramasinghe who praised MGR as a leader and an actor promised to look into the request of Kumar Rajendran.
The delegation comprised Tamil Nadu Education Minister K A Sengottayan, former Mayor of Chennai Corporation Saidai Duraiswamy, President of America Tamil Sangam Prakash M Swamy, Chairman of Hotel Le Meridian and industrialist Dr Palani G Periaswamy, former AIADMK MLA AC Shanmugam, Education Secretary Pradeep Yadav and J Muthu Rajan, Managing Partner of VV Minerals Group.
Earlier the conclusion of MGR centenary was celebrated in a befitting manner at Mahinda Rajapakshe auditorium in Kandy. The event was attended by Speaker of the Sri Lankan Parliament Karu. Jayasoorya, Member of Parliament (Kandy district) Velu Kumar, Sri Lankan Education Minister of State Velupillai Radhakrishnan and Chief Minister of the Central Province of Sri Lanka Sarath Ekanavake. Actors K Bhagyaraj, K Padiarajan, Ramesh Khanna and Madhumita conducted a pattimandram and music composer Deva conducted a light music show of MGR songs to mark the occasion. | [

Lieutenant William Lewin
Halifax Fire Department
Lieutenant William Lewin was injured at a call on January 1, 1898 on Maynard Street and died of his injuries on March 4, 1898. He was 29 years old, and married. The City Council officially acknowledged his death in session on March 22, 1898. His death certificates explains the cause of death as follows: “Compound fracture of skull and lacerations of brain tissue”. It lists his occupation as “Locksmith”.
He was a paid-on-call member of the department who originally started as a member of the Union Engine Company, attached to the No. 7 Hand Division (hand-pumped engine), the same Division as Rufus Keating, another LODD.
The funeral of Lieutenant William Lewin of the Halifax fire department, who was fatally injured by the falling chimney at the Tower road fire, took place in the afternoon from his late residence, and was very largely attended by civic officers, firemen and citizens generally.
The casket was drawn on the hose reel “Salamander” which had been very neatly draped and decorated.The whole of the upper part of the reel was covered in black and the casket rested on a stand in the centre. From four supports extending from the corners of the reel and joining above the casket was suspended a crown covered with crape, while hanging below the crown was a small bell which was kept tolling as the funeral procession moved. A miniature fire ladder rested on the front of the carriage and led up to the bell. The ladder and supports were in black and silver, and the design of the arrangement of the carriage was a good one. On top of the casket, and immediately below the bell, rested the white hat and belt of the late lieutenant; at either side of it, as well as on the carriage, were the many floral tributes that has been sent.They included a miniature fire ladder, at the top of which was a dove, from the members of No 1 steamer and No. 2 hose divisions; a handsome wreath from the mayor; wreaths from the fire commissioners, St. Mary’s young Men’s Society and the Union Protection Company, a cross from “brother firemen” and an anchor from C.W. Davies and employees. The reel ropes were covered in black and white. | [

The Crawley Boatshed, an iconic location along the Swan River in Perth Western Australia and one of the most photographed locations along the river as well. With this in mind I want a photographic representation of the landmark that was not just another image of the area but more in balance with the mood, feel and ambience that the boatshed conveys as it sits along the banks of the Swan RIver.
I have travelled to the boasted countless times never really coming away with what I was really happy with. I did not want what I had seen so many times before big colourful skies or dark moody clouds that seem to take away from the prime focal point, the Crawley Boatshed itself. Finally this week after many attempts the weather and light was near perfect to what I think best represents the simplicity, colour and beauty of this little shed along the banks of the Swan River we call "The Crawley Boatshed". | [

The clamp type check valve is a kind of universal one-way fluid valve. Its weight is light, size is small. It is easy to be installed between flanges. The inner part of the valve consists of two semi-circular springs and a plate, with a pin fixed to the valve body. The spring deformation makes the valve plate closed, while the fluid pressure makes the valve plate open. The spring deformation is quick, which can protect the pipeline from the damage of water hammer.
Installation precautions: when placing the pipe, make sure that the passing direction of clamp type sanitary check valve is the same as that of the fluid flow direction. And it should be installed in vertically placed pipelines. For horizontally placed pipelines, place clamp type check valve vertically. Put a telescopic tube between clamp type check valve and sanitary butterfly valve. Never connect it directly to other valves within the operating radius of the valve plate. Avoid adding pipe fittings and obstructive materials. Don’t install a reamer at the front or rear end of clamp type check valve. When installing a clamp type check valve near the bend, keep in mind that there should be enough space. When installing a clamp type check valve at the pump outlet, leave space at least six times the valve’s diameter to ensure that the butterfly plate is eventually affected by the fluid. | [

There’s been a lot of hype about the Hilton Residence’s new restaurant FLOW. They offer a range of cuisines – Sri Lankan, Indian, Chinese and Japanese. These are still the opening days, so we may make a second visit once their menu is set up, but meanwhile we gave their buffet a shot. It costs about Rs. 2900 per person.
Ambience & Service
Hilton as a five-star hotel is generally known for its pleasant ambience. FLOW is pretty nice, a short walk from the lobby and across from the HCR bar, with soothing colours and a delicate partition wall. Although they occasionally missed a few requests for water and food, the staff were generally attentive and friendly, with the manager taking us on a little tour of the buffet and what not. We saw mostly tourists and Colpetty aunties in the room with us.
The food at the buffet here is more appetizingly displayed than at most other hotel buffets. Instead of big silver containers or ceramic bowls, much of the food is placed in rows of wide non-stick pans, so it looks hot-hot and more inviting for serving.
The buffet typically includes Japanese, though sadly they didn’t have sashimi ready during our visit, a very detailed salad bar (you can even make your own salad), a continental table for pastas and meats, a spicy array of Indian dishes, a little touch of Chinese (wok fried noodles, some seafood), and Sri Lankan hoppers and pittu.
The Sri Lankan food here is spot on – they make some wonderful hoppers and thick, delectably spicy seeni sambal and lunumiris. We also tried out the chicken curries from the Indian selection and these were well seasoned and tasty. So Sri Lankan and Indian felt like their strong suit – which is great news for European tourists looking to try out something new.
We also tried out the seafood, beef and chicken kababs, and lamb chops – the meats are alright, tasty but indistinct, nothing you’d remember the next day.
There isn’t much carb selection outside the Indian department – just pastas and the spring onion rice – the latter was pretty good, a little oily and very flavoursome, while the pasta just tasted okay, served with a watery tomato puree, and needing a bit of seasoning.
We are hopeful about the Japanese section here than at most buffets. The tragedy was that they only had sushi on the day that we visited, but we were told they usually have salmon sashimi and other meats available too. The sushi we had was by no means the best out there but it was still good, with avocado, sticky rice and fresh ish salmon and crab.
The desserts were not as underwhelming as most of the mains kind of were – we went all out and grabbed a bit of everything. The blueberry cheesecake is legit, rich and creamy, with a good thick biscuity layer and plenty of fresh blueberry topping. The chocolate mousse is also pretty simple and tasty if you’re a chocolate lover. Besides that they had tarts, ‘vanilla explosion’ marshmallow/ tiramisu type cakes, and fruits, which were all pretty so-so.
The food was alright, it had its highlights, but it wasn’t 3000 bucks worth of wonderful. FLOW hasn’t finalized their menu yet, so we’ve got our fingers crossed and hoping their a la cart menu is going to be more exciting than the buffet. | [

The UNM-LA Campus continues its ongoing mission of Community Outreach and Service through their sponsorship of the Sunday Musicale Recital Series, presented at 2 p.m. this Sunday, April 22, by students of teachers in the Los Alamos Music Teachers Association (LAMTA).
Frequently in attendance at the performances herself, Dr. Cynthia Rooney, CEO of the UNM-LA Campus, will welcome 19 outstanding young Los Alamos pianists between the ages of 4 and 14 to the campus. The recital is FREE and open to the public, held in the campus Student Services Building. Students will be presenting a program that is a wide mixture of musical styles spanning all musical periods from Baroque, Classic, Romantic, and the Modern era.
Making his debut in a public recital is young Apollo Chen, just 4 years old, the son of Cong Pam and Yu Chen. A student of Ms. Ellen Scudder, Apollo recently demonstrated his prowess at the piano through his First Place standing at the recent NM State Performance Evaluation Program. He is performing two short works of Janet Vogt.
Several of Sunday’s performers have been recent prize winners in piano competitions held throughout New Mexico this past year. Most notably, Julia Chen, age 14, was the NM State First Prize Winner in Level III of the statewide Honors Competition, held in Albuquerque last November. On Sunday, she is performing the virtuosic first movement of Beethoven’s Sonata No.16, Op. 31, No. 1. Her parents are Haidan Yan and Houtong Chen. Her teacher, Dr. Madeline Williamson, notes that this is a new work in her developing repertoire, which is why the LAMTA Sunday Musicale Series is so invaluable: It provides much-needed performance opportunities for all levels of serious piano students, from the earliest ages throughout their high school years.
The LAMTA’s Sunday Musicales are regular public presentations in both fall and spring terms for the public’s enjoyment and to highlight appreciation of the city’s musically talented youth. Students of LAMTA members Ms. Janna Warren and Dr. Patricia Wood will also be performing.
Performing in the Musicale are two siblings frequently on the Musicale and in competition. John Kang, age 10, will perform the final movement of Clementi’s “Sonatina in G”, Op. 36, No. 5 and his sister Betty, age 12, will perform the vibrant “Tarantella,” Op. 39, No. 2 of Edward MacDowell.
- The remainder of the recital will feature pianists:
- Benjamin Yu, age 8, performing Elie Siegmeister’s “Banjo Tune” and two “Preludes” of Fritz Spindler;
- Tate Plohr, age 9, performing the first movement of Clementi’s “Sonatina in C,” Op. 36, No. 1;
- Henry Gans, age 9, performing contemporary composer Dennis Alexander’s lyrical “Arietta in G”;
- Anna Simikov, age 9, performing the well-known “Minuet in G” of J.S. Bach;
- Clara Colgan, age 9, performing Beethoven’s “Ecossaise”;
- Julianna Tang, age 10, performing the first movement of Freidrich Kuhlau’s “Sonatina in C,” Op. 55, No. 1;
- Riley Rheinheimer, age 10, performing “Legend of Madrid,” by Cornelius Gurlitt;
- Emily Xu, age 10, performing the first movement of Clementi’s “Sonatina in G,” Op. 36, No. 2;
- Charles Cai, age 11, performing the first movement of Kuhlau’s “Sonatina in G,” Op. 20, No. 2
- Annie Xie, age 11, performing Mozart’s first “Viennese Sonatina”;
- Lucas Yeager, age 12, has chosen Robert Schumann’s “Wild Rider,” Op. 68, No. 8;
- Daniel Kim, age 12, opens the recital with Bach’s “Invention No. 14 in B-flat,” BWV 785;
- Yunseo Kim, age 13, also performs Bach with “Prelude in B-Flat” from Book I of the | [

The purpose of this study is to investigate the thermal behavior at the die-attached interfaces of flip-chip GaN high-power light emitting diodes (LEDs) using a combination of theoretical and experimental analyses. The results indicate that contact thermal resistance increased dramatically at the die-attached interfaces with aging time and stress, degrading the luminous flux. The junction temperature and thermal uniformity of the flip-chip structure both strongly depend on the arrangement of gold bumps. Local hot spots effectively reduce light output under high electric and thermal stress, influencing the long-term performance of the LED device. The results were validated using finite element analysis and in experiments using an infrared and an emission microscope. A two-step thermal transient degradation mode was identified under various aging stresses. A simulation further optimized the bump configuration that was associated to yield a low junction temperature and high temperature uniformity of the LED chip. Accordingly, the results are helpful in enhancing the performance and reliability of high-power LEDs.

The aim of this study was to determine the risk factors for and clinical outcomes of breakthrough yeast BSIs in patients with hematological malignancies in the era of newer antifungal agents” Kim et al (2017).
Although yeast bloodstream infections (BSIs) are increasingly being reported in patients with hematological malignancies undergoing antifungal therapy, clinical information regarding breakthrough infections is scarce. The aim of this study was to determine the risk factors for and clinical outcomes of breakthrough yeast BSIs in patients with hematological malignancies in the era of newer antifungal agents.
ReTweet if useful… Yeast bloodstream infections in patients with hematological malignancies https://ctt.ec/28fco+ @ivteam #ivteam
Between 2011 and 2014, all consecutive patients with hematological malignancies who developed yeast BSIs were included in a case-control study wherein breakthrough infections (cases) and de novo infections (controls) were compared. Of 49 patients with yeast BSIs, 21 (43%) met the criteria for breakthrough infections. The proportions of Candida krusei and Candida tropicalis in the cases and controls were significantly different (32% [7/22] vs. 3% [1/29], P =.015; 5% [1/22] vs. 38% [11/29], P =.007, respectively). Acute leukemia, presence of a central venous catheter and neutropenia in the 3 days prior to BSI were significant risk factors for breakthrough infections. Six-week mortality rates was 33% [7/21] in the cases and 43% [12/28] in the controls (P =.564). Refractory neutropenia and the Pitt bacteremia score were independent predictors of 6-week mortality. In conclusion, breakthrough infections accounted for a significant proportion of yeast BSIs in patients with hematological malignancies. However, these infections did not increase the risk of death by themselves. Our results suggest that current clinical management of breakthrough yeast BSIs, which includes switching to a different antifungal class and prompt catheter removal is reasonable.

Should you go with liposuction or CoolSculpting? Liposuction is tried and true with decades of development, but CoolSculpting technology has some advantaged of its own.
Since it was first developed over 30 years ago, liposuction has evolved staggeringly, to become one of the most popular cosmetic surgery procedures. But liposuction is no longer the only options for the removal of unwanted fat. A new, non-invasive body contouring procedure has been developed to selectively destroy fat cells. Utilizing a controlled cooling system, cryolipolysis, or CoolSculpting, has become a popular alternate option to liposuction.
As liposuction has matured over the last several decades, many different techniques have been developed. In general, before the procedure begins you will be given anesthesia. The specifics of your anesthesia will depend on the degree of fat being removed, and the technique being used. It may be applied locally, or you may be put under general anesthesia. Unwanted fat is removed from the body using suction, and a small, stainless steel straw-like instrument called a cannula. The cannula is interested into fatty areas between the skin and muscle through a small incision. The length of the procedure will also depend on the chosen technique as well as the amount of fat to be removed. The result however, regardless of technique, is an improved body shape.
CoolSculpting was created by Harvard scientists after watching children develop dimples in their cheeks while eating popsicles. The whole process works thanks to a strange quirk of human biology. As it turns out, the fat cells below your skin freeze and die at a higher temperature than all the surrounding tissues. The area is cooled to nearly 4 degrees Celsius. This is cold enough for the fat cells to crystallize, but still warm enough that the skin is unharmed. Over the course of several weeks following the procedure, these cells shrink, die, and are disposed of through your body’s own natural processes. As the cells die, you are left with fewer fat cells and a more sculpted body.
Benefits of Liposuction
While CoolSculpting is the up-and-coming technology, there are still a few benefits to choosing liposuction:
- More dramatic & complete removal of fat
The first benefit is that, simply put, liposuction is a much more aggressive and complete removal of unwanted fat. Liposuction, thanks to its various techniques, is extremely versatile when it comes to each individual patient’s needs. Whether you are looking to contour more of your body, or just a specific part, liposuction is a viable option. Liposuction is able to target areas of unwanted fat with extreme precision, locking onto both the specific location, as well as removing the desired volume.
- Better contouring
This skill with the instruments has also led to an incredible level of contouring that CoolSculpting cannot reach. Because liposuction can remove higher volumes of fat than CoolSculpting, can target larger areas, and often only requires one operation, surgeons are able to use their experience to shape and contour your body in a much more significant way.
- More immediate results
Which brings us to liposuction’s final advantage: faster and more significant results. When your liposuction procedure is complete, the fat is gone. It may take a couple of weeks for your body to fully recover, but the results are immediate. CoolSculpting, on the other hand, requires at least a month to three months for your body’s natural processes to removed the frozen and crystallized cells.
Benefits of CoolSculpting
However, CoolSculpting wouldn’t be rocketing into popularity like it is right now if it didn’t offer some advantages of it own:
- No surgery
The first is probably the largest benefit: CoolSculpting is completely non-invasive. This procedure is not a surgery. There is no anesthesia involved, and absolutely no cutting. Most patients enjoy the freedom to work on their mobile device, watch TV, even use social media while they are going through the procedure. CoolSculpting is one of the few effective non-surgical fat cell reducing options available for those who may not be a good candidate for surgery, or would simply prefer to avoid it.
- No recovery time
And thanks to the fact that it is a completely non-invasive procedure, CoolSculpting can also brag that it has no recovery time. Many patients go back to work the next day. It is even possible, and not uncommon, to come in on a lunch break, and go back to work the same day (the procedure can be finished in as little as an hour in some cases). No bed rest is needed, and antibiotics are not required. This makes CoolSculpting a great choice for those who want help removing their stubborn | [

President Petro Poroshenko stresses the importance of providing Ukrainian nuclear power plants with domestic fuel.
“The next strategic step in the supply of fuel should be the provision of Ukrainian nuclear power plants with domestic fuel,” the Head of State noted at the meeting on nuclear energy development and enhancing nuclear safety at the Khmelnytskyi NPP during a working visit to Khmelnytskyi region.
According to him, the work in this direction is already under way. “I am convinced that this is a very ambitious, timely task. It is about creating our own nuclear fuel production plant, which is part of Energoatom. We only dreamed of this. And I want to emphasize that now it is being realized during the war,” Petro Poroshenko said.
According to the President, the production of this fuel by Energoatom is appropriate because the company is the only consumer of nuclear fuel and already produces some of its components. “It facilitates the implementation of the project,” the President said.
According to the President, another important step towards liberation from Russian nuclear blackmail is the construction of a centralized storage facility for spent nuclear fuel.
“To date, this is a question of both security and economy. It has finally started in 2017. The construction is carried out due to the American loan, which I agreed upon during the negotiations with the President of the United States. It is 250 million dollars. The American lending agency provides this. This was made possible due to the trust in the country’s political leadership, in the Ukrainian Government, in Energoatom. Lenders believed in the project,” Petro Poroshenko said.
“Why was this possible? Because we agreed on the audit of Energoatom and we had nothing to hide. Vice versa. The audit was conducted and now the company has a high credit rating. That, incidentally, provides economic indicators, because there is a favorable lending rate, as well as fantastic opportunities for the future projects,” the President noted. | [

VOLT – A unit of electrical pressure (or electromotive force) which causes current to flow in a circuit. One volt is the amount of pressure required to cause one ampere of current to flow against one ohm of resistance.
What is electrical pressure measured in?
The term to describe pressure in electricity terms is ‘voltage’. It’s measured in volts using a voltmeter.
In what unit is an electrical unit measured?
Electricity is measured in Watts and kilowatts
Electricity is measured in units of power called Watts, named to honor James Watt, the inventor of the steam engine. A Watt is the unit of electrical power equal to one ampere under the pressure of one volt. One Watt is a small amount of power.
What is the unit of electric energy?
Electricity. A unit of electrical energy, particularly for utility bills, is the kilowatt-hour (kWh); one kilowatt-hour is equivalent to 3.6 megajoule. Electricity usage is often given in units of kilowatt-hours per year or other time period.
What is the unit of measurement for electrical pressure or electromotive force?
It is abbreviated E in the international metric system but also, popularly, as emf. Despite its name, electromotive force is not actually a force. It is commonly measured in units of volts, equivalent in the metre–kilogram–second system to one joule per coulomb of electric charge.
What is electricity and SI unit?
The SI unit of electric power is Watt or joule per second.
What is the unit of electric abbreviation?
Electrical & electronic units table
|Unit Name||Unit Symbol||Quantity|
|Ampere (amp)||A||Electric current (I)|
|Volt||V||Voltage (V, E) Electromotive force (E) Potential difference (Δφ)|
|Watt||W||Electric power (P)|
What are volt units?
volt, unit of electrical potential, potential difference and electromotive force in the metre–kilogram–second system (SI); it is equal to the difference in potential between two points in a conductor carrying one ampere current when the power dissipated between the points is one watt.
What is work measured in?
In the metric system of units, where force is measured in newtons (abbreviated N), work is measured in newton-meters (N-m). For reference, a newton is roughly equal to the force exerted on your hand by a baseball.
Why EMF is called force?
The man who coined the term “electromotive force” was Alessandro Volta, who stated that there was a force separating the charges in current flowing in a closed circuit. He then named this “force”; as a result, his last name is forever attached to the EMF as its unit, the volt.
What name is given to the unit of electromotive force?
What is the unit of EMF? The unit for electromotive force is Volt. EMF is numerically expressed as the number of Joules of energy given by the source divided by each Coulomb to enable a unit electric charge to move across the circuit.
Is EMF and voltage same?
Voltage is the potential difference between two points which causes current to flow. It is the amount of energy per unit charge while moving between two points. EMF or electromotive force is the amount of energy supply to the charge by battery cell. | [

Hubert’s idea of a great time was helping people in need. He enjoyed that much more than having a better quality of life for himself. Hubert will greatly missed and be remembered and loved by many family members and friends. His legacy of love and giving is a powerful testimony of a life well lived. “For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.” Philippians 1:21 Hubert was preceded in death by his two Godly parents, Harvey and Virginia McGahan who taught all their children to love God. Also preceded in his death are two brothers, George and Arthur, along with four sisters, Levelia, Myrtle, Lola, and Leona. His sister Pearline is survived by him. Hubert is also survived by his wife Linda, stepson Shane and his wife Angelia, stepdaughter Stephanie, and her significant other Michael, step grand-daughter, Tiana, and step-great grandson Rogan.

OPEN HOUSE | STATE SECRETS opens July 22, 2010 at SUPERFRONT LA in the Pacific Design Center B208.
” – Would anyone like to have a little look down into the secret of how ideals are fabricated on this earth? Who has enough pluck?... Come on! Here we have a clear glimpse into this dark workshop.” -Nietzsche, On the Genealogy of Morality
OPEN HOUSE | STATE SECRETS is about the dark side of architecture – ‘architecture’ in both the abstract political use of the term and the literal experience of normative buildings. Conceiving of this exhibition as a laboratory, Farrah Karapetian, Mitch McEwen, and architectural collective Bureau E.A.S.T will accumulate work in SUPERFRONT’s space between July 6th and August 22nd. SUPERFRONT’s space at the Pacific Design Center becomes a studio for the exploration of the parameters of photography, sculpture, mapping, and architecture.
McEwen’s architecturally-informed installation interrogates the relationship between architecture and truth-production. Elements of a C.I.A. interrogation facility are constructed at one-to-one scale. Referencing secret sites of U.S. military detention, the work incorporates testimony of deposition statements from detainees held in the “War on Terror”. The work reproduces the multi-sensory experience of the facility typology analyzed, including multimedia elements such as white noise and rap music, as based upon evidence gathered of actual C.I.A. detainment practices.
Displayed as a projection of a series of analytic mappings, Bureau E.A.S.T.’s Ceuta and Mellilia research project focuses on the peculiar situation of the only territories on mainland Africa that belong to the EU. The project seeks to analyze the impacts of such hard edge geo-political border formations on the urban landscape of Ceuta and Mellilia and on their Moroccan hinterlands. In doing so, the project reactivates the discourse on physical borders, which has been spurned in the past decades by postmodern liberal theorists (Castell and O’Brian) who proclaimed the advent of a “liquid, borderless” world. Instead, this research unveils the emergence of an elaborate paradigm of mobility control characterized by a significant trans-border economic inequality and the deployment of an urbanism of surveillance and exclusion.
Mitch McEwen is both a practicing designer and the Director and Founder of SUPERFRONT, a gallery and project space for architecture and interdisciplinary projects. Since founding SUPERFRONT in January 2008, she has curated more than a dozen exhibits and published 4 architectural catalogs, working with artists, historians, and architects from New York, Los Angeles, Berlin, Madrid, and elsewhere. Her exhibits at SUPERFRONT have investigated the relationship between architecture and performance, as well as phenomenology, community engagement, and urbanism.
Bureau E.A.S.T. is a collaborative design practice based in Los Angeles, Toronto, and Fez, Morocco. Founded by Aziza Chaouni and Takako Tajima, Bureau E.A.S.T. is a collective of architects, landscape architects, urban designers, planners, and engineers. This diversity is reflected in the range of projects currently within their office – from the landscape master plan to revitalize a forgotten river to the intimate residential garden; from the renovation of a non-profit animal hospital to the adaptive reuse of a 17th century palace. Their work has been published and exhibited internationally, including the International Architecture Biennale in Rotterdam; INDEX: Design to Improve Life in Copenhagen; and the United Nations Human Settlements Programme (UN HABITAT) World Urban Forum. | [

Osaka Gas and Chubu Electric to Conduct a Joint Study
July 24, 2003
Osaka Gas Co., Ltd.
Osaka Gas and Chubu Electric Power announced today to conduct jointly a feasibility study on construction of a natural gas pipeline connecting Osaka Gas’ high pressure trunkline with LNG terminal of Chubu Electric.
A pipeline to be studied by the two companies involves a link between the high-pressure trunkline currently being built by Osaka Gas (46km in length, scheduled for completion in 2007) with the existing terminal (Kawagoe or Yokkaichi) of Chubu Electric. The two companies plan to proceed with technical and economic examination of a new pipeline including its route, specifications, construction costs, economics, and other points.
Osaka Gas expects that a pipeline link will contribute to increasing the company’s gas supply capabilities and to improving stability of supply. Chubu Electric, on the other hand, considers that a pipeline linkage with Osaka Gas will function as a back-up for natural gas supply for its power generation and help to increase the reliability of power supply. | [

Anyone know how that happened? I thought you needed to be over a fault line?[/quote]
Yes and no.
Earthquakes are common even in tectonically ‘passive’ areas. You probably have many 1-3’s that you never hear about because you don’t typically feel them and they’re below your threshold for detection.
The type of geology in your area affects how you feel the quake as well. Unconsolidated materials such as sands/loams ‘move’ more during an event versus solid bedrock.
There are lots of faults around that area, they are just relatively passive as the mid-atlantic region is not generally tectonically active.[/quote]
Interesting, thanks for the info! | [

The widespread acceptance of numerical technology by the customer and the experiences of the user helped in developing the second generation numerical relays in 1990. Modern power system protection devices are built with integrated functions. Multi-functions like protection, control, monitoring and measuring are available today in numeric power system protection devices. Also, the communication capability of these devices facilitates remote control, monitoring and data transfer. Traditionally, electromechanical and static protection relays offered single-function, single characteristics, whereas modern numeric protection offers multi-function and multiple characteristics. Some protections also offer adaptable characteristics, which dynamically change the protection characteristic under different system conditions by monitoring the input parameters. The measuring principles and techniques of conventional relays (electromechanical and static) are fewer than those of the numerical technique, which can differ in many aspects like the type of protection algorithm used, sampling, signal processing, hardware selection, software discipline, etc. First generation numerical relays were mainly designed to meet the static relay protection characteristic, whereas modern numeric protection devices are capable of providing complete protection with added functions like control and monitoring. Numerical protection devices offer several advantages in terms of protection, reliability, and trouble shooting and fault information. Numerical protection devices are available for generation, transmission and distribution systems. The following sections cover relay hardware, relay software, multiple protection characteristics, adaptive protection characteristics, data storage, instrumentation feature, selfcheck feature, communication capability, additional functions, size and cost-effectiveness.

When you have a routine -- wake up, work, sleep, then repeat -- life can get boring. It doesn't have to be that way, though. To keep yourself excited about life, make life interesting, suggests Quora contributor Shikhar Agarwal.
"It's up to you to make your life meaningful and interesting," Agarwal says.
One way to live a more tantalizing life is to do things you're afraid of doing. "Afraid of water? Go scuba diving! Afraid of rides? Go to Europa Park in Germany (6 Flags would look like child's play!)," Agarwal continues. "When you overcome your fear, or at least fight it, it gives you invaluable happiness. And believe me, the probability that you would be hurt because of scuba diving is as low as a cosmic ray escaping from a distant star and hitting your laptop."More Tips:http://www.inc.com/quora/8-ways-to-live-the-life-you-want.htmlQuestions, Comments, Suggestions?Contact Successful Meetings Editor in Chief Vincent Alonzo with your "How To" ideas. | [

Estuarine Fish Ecology Field Course
Dr. Joe Wroblewski, Memorial University
Dr. David Methven, University of New Brunswick
Dates 19 June to 1 July, 2006
Credit 3 credit hours
Description Community structure, function and distribution of northern coastal fishes in fjords and estuarine environments. Emphasis on sampling, field techniques, taxonomy, quantitative characterization, adaptations and habitat relationships. A comparative approach will contrast fish communities from deepwater, estuarine, near shore and freshwater habitats.
Goals By the end of the course you will have an understanding of how coastal fishes have adapted to the diverse environments they occupy. You will be able to identify common characteristics of the five classes of fishes and identify local estuarine and coastal fishes to species. You will know how to collect relevant information from individual fish to better understand their ecology and life history, be able to construct a dichotomous key to distinguish among the species you’ve caught, and be able to characterize various fish assemblages using percent similarity and diversity indices.
Evaluation Mid term 10%, Lab write-ups 10%, Research project 25%, Field book notes 10%, Presentation 10%, Final 35%

The letter applauds lawmakers for swiftly passing the CARES Act, which suspended federal student loan payments for 80% of student borrowers. However, the letter notes that the suspension still left out 1 in 5 student borrowers who owed on commercially-held FFEL loans or Perkins loans. Now the coalition of organizations calls on congress to address the student debt crisis more broadly in the next Coronavirus package. Specifically, they request federal student debt cancellation for the “hardest hit” borrowers and extending the suspension of student loan payments until March 2021 for those borrowers who will have to continue making payments. “Canceling student debt would ensure that borrowers are able to shoulder the ongoing costs of food, supplies, and medications if they, like many workers, face layoffs or smaller paychecks (due to reduced hours or slower business) because of the pandemic. ”
Student loan debt has been a crisis since long before COVID-19. Before we were swept by a global pandemic, outstanding student loan debt had reached $1.6 trillion and over 9 million borrowers were in default on their federal student loans. According to the Student Borrower Protection Center, a new borrower goes in to default every 26 seconds.
The letter paints a bleak economic future, predicting 30% unemployment rates in the second quarter, a 24% drop in GDP, and a contraction in the world economy by 1%. For perspective, that’s a greater contraction than the one that followed the 2008 financial crisis. The letter claims student borrowers will be hit the hardest by this economic fallout, who are already struggling to cover basic necessities like food, rent and medical care. It goes on to say the women and communities of color bear the brunt of the burden. “Black students must borrow at higher rates and in larger amounts due to racial inequities in incomes and wealth. Additionally, women hold two-thirds of the country’s student debt and on average borrow $3,000 more than men to attend college—yet because of the wealth and wage gap, women find it harder to repay their loans.” Even more shocking is the revelation that more than three million Americans over the age of 60 are still laden with student debt. “More than 40,000 people over 65 have their Social Security payments, tax refunds, or other government payments offset or garnished because they have fallen behind on their student loan payments. ”
According to these organizations, wide scale student debt cancellation would benefit 43 million Americans, increase GDP by up to $108 billion each year, add 1.5 million jobs per year, and increase borrowers’ incomes by about $3,000 over a 3-year period.
While Republican lawmakers and the Trump administration have implied they are open to a second stimulus package, it’s unlikely we will see another round of relief passed until July at the earliest. Until then, student borrowers will still be anticipating the September deadline when CARES Act is scheduled to expire and federal student loan payments will be due once again.
Here is the Letter That Was Sent to Congress
Dear Speaker Pelosi, Majority Leader McConnell, Minority Leader McCarthy, and Minority Leader Schumer:
The 66 undersigned community, civil rights, consumer, and student advocacy organizations thank you for taking swift action to pass the CARES Act to begin to grapple with the ongoing economic fallout caused by the coronavirus. However, much more must be done to ensure that student loan borrowers and the economy recover when this crisis ends. We urge you to include student debt cancellation in the next coronavirus package, and for those who will still have federal student debt, to extend suspension of those payments through March 2021.
We are concerned about the increasingly grim predictions we hear about the state of our economy. Without a comprehensive long-term solution, the CARES Act suspension of federal student loans for eighty percent of borrowers merely kicks the problem down the road to this fall, when jobless claims are predicted to exceed Great Depression-era levels, and the financial crisis will have severely deepened. The president of the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis, James Bullard, predicted the U.S. unemployment rate may hit 30% in the second quarter, a level five percent greater than was reached during the Great Depression. Goldman Sachs is projecting a record-breaking 24 percent drop in GDP for the second quarter of 2020, and that the world economy is expected to contract by 1 percent this year—which would be a greater worldwide contraction than the one following the 2008 financial crisis. And the downturn is expected to last well beyond this year: Morgan Stanley predicts that GDP in developed markets won’t return to pre-virus levels until the third quarter of 2021.
The student debt relief in the CARES Act fails to address this looming economic crisis. First, the six-month suspension on federally-held federal student loans leaves out an estimated one in five borrowers who owe on commercially-held FFEL loans or Perkins loans. Second, even for the eighty percent of borrowers who benefit from | [

My son will not stop asking me, “Can we go see Ant-Man? Can we go see Ant-Man?” Well lucky for me, it opens this weekend and we can’t wait to check it out. Hopefully I can keep this new offering from Sideshow Collectibles and Hot Toys off his radar because I will surely be bombarded with a new chant, “Can we get that awesome Ant-man statue? Can we get that awesome Ant-man statue?!”
Here is what Sideshow Collectibles had to say about this tiny titan over on their OFFICIAL WEBSITE. Marvel’s newest film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Ant-Man opens in theatres worldwide today! Our new hero, Scott Lang, will don the Ant-Man suit with the astonishing ability to shrink in scale but increase in strength. He must help his mentor, Dr. Hank Pym, save the world against Yellowjacket who uses the same technology as a weapon for evil.
To celebrate the release of this new film, Sideshow Collectibles and Hot Toys are excited to present Ant-Man Sixth Scale Collectible Figure! The movie-accurate Ant-Man Collectible Figure is specially crafted based on the film and features a newly developed helmeted head sculpt with an authentic likeness of Paul Rudd as Scott Lang.
When closed, the helmet features LED light-up eyes. The Ant-Man also includes a specially tailored Ant-Man suit, an Ant-Man miniature figure, detailed accessories and a specially designed figure stand.
We LOVE that LED feature on the helmet and the overall detail on the whole figure is breathtaking. CLICK HERE to preorder this figure today! | [

If you find a wet spot on your carpet left by your dog or cat you have a good chance of removing the urine by rinsing it with cold water and drying it really well. If you find an older dried urine spot in your home or just smell urine in the carpet with no stain then you have a much more difficult problem to deal with.
So how do you eliminate urine odor in your home? You have to treat the urine in the carpet, carpet backing, carpet pad, and possibly the sub flooring as well. At Chem-Dry of Tampa FL we use P.U.R.T. (Pet Urine Removal Treatment.) It's an oxidizer that destroys the odor molecules in the pet urine. Chem-Dry's PURT treatment is formulated to reduce staining and permanently remove the urine odor in your home. It removes 9.8% of urine in the carpet.
As a professional carpet cleaner in Tampa FL I use PURT on a regular basis. It's the only solution I know of that works consistently on all types of urine and other pet related odors in your home. Urine deposits in the carpet become a breeding ground for bacteria and other micro organisms that add to the odor and make your home less healthy. When your carpet is sanitized along with our pet urine removal treatment we can remove 99.9% of the bacteria associated with the urine deposits.
Need to eliminate urine odor in your home, call Chem-Dry of Tampa FL. | [

In 1969, NASA Moon Landing mission succeed landing on The Mare Tranquillitatis. Even 50 years later today, we are moved by the bravery and the determination to achieve something thats seems to be impossible to human. This event motivated us to design a modern approach Apollo11 tribute watch- S11.
– Apollo11 moon landing mission inspired wrist watch
– Face of the watch is a 3D topographic representation of the exact landing area
– Unique sweeping rotation second hands, thanks to SEIKO (VH31) movement, appears like a radar constantly marking the landing site
– Crown is modelled on the oxygen valves from the front of the Apollo 11 spacesuit, we select the same material and color tribute to the original spacesuit.
– Caseback is made out of technical ceramic and features a mention of the Apollo Mission
– Unique metal clasp features the laser-etched coordinates of the landing
– Comes in 4 moon landing inspired models (Lunar Mission Red, The Dark Side, Spacesuit Silver and Aluminized Kapton)
We have developing this project for 2 years, we spend countless hours to seek for the best manufacturers and overcome the difficulties on productions especially the dial (it takes 300 ton machine to make). Each part of the watch has been refined to perfection and you can see each design elements on the watch are well thought base on the references of the NASA moon landing mission. | [

Boosie Badazz is never one to shy away from self-expression.
Yesterday, accountability was served when George Floyd’s murderer, Derek Chauvin, was found guilty of all three charges of second and third-degree murder and manslaughter. Boosie joined the rest of the world to react on social media, but his peculiar reaction was met with some eyebrow raises.
“He lucky he ain’t going to jail n LOUISIANA #bosscallwouldabeenmade,” tweeted Boosie.
The use of the eggplant emoji certainly sent Black Twitter into a frenzy. DJ Akademiks even took to his Instagram to ask Louisiana natives about Boosie’s tweet.
One person took to the comments saying, “As a resident of Lousianna idk wtf this mean.”
The Baton Rouge native has become a go-to account to follow for hilarious antics, commentary, stories, and more. A number of these instances have gotten his account banned from Instagram, leading him to often create a new one.
For instance, last month his account was taken away again. Boosie and DaBaby were on the set of his new video. The “Wipe Me Down” rapper paid a man to slap him silly for the video. After catching wind of the situation, Boosie was forced to make another account. He is currently facing another Instagram ban for the umpteenth time.
“IG just be f***ing over me #racist a** b**ches.”
Despite another Instagram ban, Twitter did not let him live down his comments following Derek Chauvin’s verdict. Peep more of the reactions to Boosie’s tweet below. | [

The Renewable and Low Carbon Fuel Requirements Regulation (Regulation) reduces British Columbia's reliance on non-renewable fuels, helps reduce the environmental impact of transportation fuels and contributes to a new, low-carbon economy. The Regulation enables the Province to set benchmarks for the amount of renewable fuel in B.C.’s transportation fuel blends, reduce the carbon intensity of transportation fuels and meet its commitment to adopt a low-carbon fuel standard. This legislation supports British Columbia’s goal to lower provincial greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 33 percent by 2020.
The Regulation diversifies B.C.’s transportation fuel supply, decreases GHG emissions and establishes a market for low-carbon fuels by:
- Encouraging suppliers to determine how best to meet the requirements in accordance with consumer demand and market forces;
- Reducing reliance on non-renewable fuels; and
- Encouraging emerging cleaner fuel technologies.
The Regulation reduces the carbon intensity of transportation fuels through two major requirements:
Part 2 (Renewable) Fuel Requirement
- five percent renewable content in gasoline
- four percent renewable content in diesel
Part 3 (Low Carbon) Fuel Requirement
- ten percent reduction in carbon intensity by 2020
The use of renewable and low carbon fuel in 2012 saved 904,868 tonnes of greenhouse gas emissions from being released into the environment, the equivalent of about 190,499 cars being removed from the road. (see RLCF-007-2012)

Minimalist Design. High Performance Durability.
The Parlanti Denver Essential™ Dress Boot is the perfect balance between the show ring and the training ring. Handcrafted using the same elements as the Classic Parlanti Miami Field Boot with the exception of a canvas interior lining and single stitching. Designed for increased durability with only the essentials in mind.
The Parlanti Essentials Collection is minimalism at its finest. Equipped with only the essentials, the collection was designed to provide an entry-level cost for a top-shelf boot. With all the bells and whistles stripped down from Parlanti’s signature Classic Collection, the Essential Collection’s minimalism defines class and elegance.
It’s All In The Lining
The Essentials come with a canvas interior lining in place of the standard calfskin leather lining. The canvas lining provides a soft and supple feel, and can provide a longer lifecycle than the Classic Collection. The canvas lining is extremely durable and can handle the heavy day-to-day wear.
The Essential Collection is equipped with the most durable zippers that can withstand the daily wear and use. The added zipper protectors ensure that zippers do not get stuck or misaligned. The zipper buckle on the top ensures that the zipper stays zipped and flush with the top of the boot. | [

Nearly 150 elderly people gathered at Alnwick Garden today as part of the garden's Elderberries Project which aims to help those who feel isolated as they get older.
At the Elderberries' Christmas Party, presents were given to those in attendance by local schoolchildren, and pupils from the Holley Park Academy performed carols as the gifts were distributed.
Today also marked the continuation of the scheme for a further three years thanks to a donation from the Stuart Halbert Foundation.
"The foundation has always been very impressed by the Elderberries' down to earth, pragmatic, and above all compassionate services which combat social isolation of elderly residents in rural Northumberland."
- Gary Lydiate, Chairman of the Stuart Halbert Foundation

Jan 28 2016
Washington—Senator Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) today released the following statement on the final master plan for the West Los Angeles VA campus:
“I strongly support the West LA VA master plan, which was released today by the VA. This is a key step to transform the campus into a leading provider of veterans’ services.
“The Los Angeles area is home to the largest number of veterans in the country—300,000. While the department has made progress in reducing the number of homeless veterans, the city estimates that more than 4,000 veterans remain homeless. That’s why getting the master plan right is so important.
“The plan proposes developing up to 900 units of new housing through new construction and renovation of existing buildings—in addition to the 180 units at Buildings 209, 205 and 208 that are complete or underway. Importantly, housing will be connected to health care, education, legal and mental health services to address the underlying causes of veteran homelessness and help veterans become self-sufficient.
“To help implement this part of the plan, Congress should pass the Los Angeles Homeless Veterans Leasing Act, a bill to provide the department the authority it needs to quickly and efficiently construct housing and provide additional services. The Veterans’ Affairs Committee has held a hearing on the bill and is expected to pass it soon. I’ve also had good conversations with Congressman Jeff Miller, chairman of the House Veterans’ Affairs Committee, about the benefits of using community partners to build housing and provide services.
“The master plan designates an area on the campus for a new 450,000 square-foot hospital building to be completed by 2020. The hospital building is seismically unsafe and must be replaced. This is a significant project and I’m working with my colleagues and the administration to secure funding for it.
“The master plan also calls for the benefits office to be relocated to the campus from the city’s federal office building. This is a change I have long advocated for and one that will make it significantly easier for veterans to learn about and access the benefits they have earned.
“My sincere thanks to Secretary McDonald and his team for their tireless work to get this done after several previous attempts stalled. I look forward to working with them to implement the plan.” | [

IPsec Security Gateway Sample Application
@@ -61,6 +62,44 @@ The Path for the IPsec Outbound traffic is:
* Write packet to port.
+The application supports two modes of operation: poll mode and event mode.
+* In the poll mode a core receives packets from statically configured list
+ of eth ports and eth ports' queues.
+* In the event mode a core receives packets as events. After packet processing
+ is done core submits them back as events to an event device. This enables
+ multicore scaling and HW assisted scheduling by making use of the event device
+ capabilities. The event mode configuration is predefined. All packets reaching
+ given eth port will arrive at the same event queue. All event queues are mapped
+ to all event ports. This allows all cores to receive traffic from all ports.
+ Since the underlying event device might have varying capabilities, the worker
+ threads can be drafted differently to maximize performance. For example, if an
+ event device - eth device pair has Tx internal port, then application can call
+ rte_event_eth_tx_adapter_enqueue() instead of regular rte_event_enqueue_burst().
+ So a thread which assumes that the device pair has internal port will not be the
+ right solution for another pair. The infrastructure added for the event mode aims
+ to help application to have multiple worker threads by maximizing performance from
+ every type of event device without affecting existing paths/use cases. The worker
+ to be used will be determined by the operating conditions and the underlying device
+ capabilities. **Currently the application provides non-burst, internal port worker
+ threads and supports inline protocol only.** It also provides infrastructure for
+ non-internal port however does not define any worker threads.
+Additionally the event mode introduces two submodes of processing packets:
+* Driver submode: This submode has bare minimum changes in the application to support
+ IPsec. There are no lookups, no routing done in the application. And for inline
+ protocol use case, the worker thread resembles l2fwd worker thread as the IPsec
+ processing is done entirely in HW. This mode can be used to benchmark the raw
+ performance of the HW. The driver submode is selected with --single-sa option
+ (used also by poll mode). When --single-sa option is used in conjution with event
+ mode then index passed to --single-sa is ignored.
+* App submode: This submode has all the features currently implemented with the
+ application (non librte_ipsec path). All the lookups, routing follows existing
+ methods and report numbers that can be compared against regular poll mode
+ benchmark numbers.

Cash drives the Indian payments market, and is valued by consumers for its security, convenience, and comfort. By tapping into this, mobile wallet providers can gain market share in a country with an online commerce market set to be worth $63.7bn by 2020.
Accounting for 21% of total online spending by value of transactions and 50% by number of transactions in 2015, cash is the most popular payment tool in India when shopping online. Our Online Consumer Payments Analytics shows that that 31% of Indian consumers selected security as the most important reason for using cash, followed by convenience (22%) and comfort (21%). While credit cards are the most popular payment tool across the majority of markets, Indian consumers value the safety and ease of use associated with cash transactions.
With internet penetration on the rise and the number of smartphones significantly increasing over the last 12 months, the share of Indian consumers who have a mobile wallet and use it gained more than 20%. According to our Megatrends framework (which asks respondents to rank eight specific behavioral trends in order of importance), younger family consumers are among the first to try a new product and prefer to buy goods and services online. As such, mobile payment providers should specifically target this segment in their marketing of product launches to gain market share.
In order to promote mobile wallets as a replacement for cash when shopping online, providers should include adequate security features while making them as easy and convenient to use as cash. To reach critical mass over the next five years, providers should move the value proposition of mobile wallets beyond payments to additional services across the mobile-enabled space, including loyalty/reward programs, bill payment, money transfers, and post-purchase experiences.

Two more backwards compatible Xbox 360 games have been added to the Xbox One. These games are Syberia and Boom Rocket. You can download either game from the Xbox One Store for 10 dollars, or if you have bought either game on the 360 Marketplace, they will be available to download on the Xbox One. If you have a physical copy of Syberia, just putting the disc in will let you download it. Sadly, there never was a physical release of Boom Rocket, so you would had to have owned digitally on same account you are signed into on your Xbox One. | [

The show features 30 women sitting on stage as a man a describes himself to them. All the women have a light switch in front of them and when they don't like what the guy says, they switch their lights off. Once the stage is dark, the man has to leave the stage.
Lopez also says women send conflicting messages about women.
"They want a guy that's confident, not arrogant, and they say they want guys to be honest but then a guy will be honest and they don't like it" Lopez said. "When they find a guy who is tall dark and handsome, but he lives with his mom, they won't like that."

[uhclem] was looking for a novel yet easy way to remind his kids to do their chores, and instead of using a series of post-it notes, he constructed a nice wireless Arduino-powered message board. The message board is powered by an Arduino Pro, and communicates with his computer via a pair of series 1 Xbee radios which relay a series of canned messages to an attached VFD. He installed all of the components in an old cigar box, and mounted it on the wall, making for a nice overall presentation.
Programming of the messages does not require any special software as the user interface is handled by the Arduino and accessed via a standard terminal session. [uhclem] mentions that the his code consumes nearly all of the device’s RAM when running, so he keeps a handful of canned messages stored in the Arduino’s flash memory, recalling them when needed. The optional EEPROM is used to allow for streaming messages to the device as well. | [

5 Spotlight Power Search Secrets
You use Spotlight (Command-Space) all the time, right? Or perhaps you use the search bar in your Finder windows? Did you know you can make your searches even more accurate with Boolian queries and other Spotlight Search operators? Here are a few good examples:
Pete or Pierre?
Are you looking for something written by someone, but you aren’t sure if that person is called Pete or Pierre?
Open up Spotlight and type:
author:pete OR author:pierre
Spotlight will look for items authored by Pete OR Pierre.
Looking for an item that contains a specific word/phrase written by the contact? Then write that word/phrase at the beginning of the search, something like
Give Jonny money author:pete OR author:pierre
And Spotlight will look for items containing that phrase that happen to have been written by Pete or Pierre.
Get the date
Searching your Mac for an email from a contact? You get too many results. If you know the message was sent between April 1 2015 and March 27 2016? Just write the following in your search bar and it should be easier to find.
[Contact first name] kind:message date:4/1/15-3/27/16
Looking for travel documents? Try this search:
This searches for the word “trip” in documents only. Or use the word images instead of document to ensure only images are searched through, or music to search through your music collection.
There’s a host of keywords you can work with in Spotlight search.
These words include applications, apps, contact, folder, folders, email, emails, mail message, event, events, image, images, and so on. You can also look for all kinds of different metadata within a search: kind, author, title, meeting, and more.
To use a keyword, enter it followed by a colon, then enter your search term. For example, enter “author:Jonny” or “title:Lisbon.”
I was inspired to put this short collection together by a report on OSXDaily, which describes how to use Spotlight Search operators to find all the screenshots you may have on your Mac.
Basically, type this into the Search:
And if you want to search for a specific shot, just put the name of the item in front of the search, eg: | [

I love this book! The ‘before and after rheumatoid arthritis’ pictures are inspiring. The book is easy to read, has solid information, and details the effort involved and payoffs for each section. It effectively combines the author's personal story of success using the methods she covers and her extensive study of relevant scientific research. Her gift to us is her ability to distill all this into a form that is accessible. While this is not about an easy cure, it is about methods that will give huge rewards for the effort involved.
This book covers a group of methods that help eliminate symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis and other medical conditions linked to food-related problems. These conditions include diabetes, overweight, depression, hay fever, irritable bowel syndrome, learning disorders, eczema and premenstrual syndrome.
Friends and relatives reading this book may find the chapter on exercise provides them with new incentives to begin or keep moving. Another of the things I love about this book is the broad range of topics. For instance, medical research about how foods are absorbed into the bloodstream sits next to information about how to use meditation to reduce pain. There's even a whole section about making foods that are safe, tasty and similar in texture to favorites by using modifications and substitutions for ingredients that are problematic.
As the friend of several people who have rheumatoid arthritis and other food-related problems, I appreciate and highly recommend this book.

This book is the best book I have ever read about arthritis. I know the author and I knew her before she was "cured" and after so I know what an amazing change she was able to make in her life. I have mild arthritis and have found her advice more helpful than anything a doctor ever told me. This book can really change your life if you have arthritis.

Barbara's personal and passionate commitment to understanding her self and her illness and the rich personal exploration she undertook is a living example to the potency we each contain to healing in a personal way. Her book safely opens many avenues of healthy practices to explore in our search for deeper health and wholeness. This book is a masterpiece.

is a phenomenal book. I have recommended it to numerous patients who have chronic pain
. People who are experiencing fibromyalgia
benefit greatly from the book, especially from the chapters on leaking gut, food intolerances, and trigger point therapy. This is a must read
for anyone who is ready to take charge of their health and their lives.
Sharon K. Hepburn
Physical Therapist, Nationally Certified Massage Therapist
I am a certified health supportive chef and I cook for people who have health challenges such as food sensitivities and chronic pain syndromes. Barbara's book, Conquering Arthritis, provides me with great guidance in advising, menu-planning, shopping and cooking for my clients.
As I read Barbara's book, a light came on: I realized that some of my own health challenges are probably related to food sensitivities and other conditions that generated these sensitivities. Barbara's book set me on a profound path of healing and has lead me to collaborate with physicians who are 'on the same page'---there's great reason to be hopeful that I will become the healthiest I've ever been in my life!
Wow! Finally the lighthouse to true healing!
This is a real life guide to self healing and empowerment!
Barbara Allan shows you how to take control of your own health and healing and become responsible for you own health! I love this book and I love this woman! She's the real thing. This book is inspiring! It shows us how to be courageous enough to commit to our own health. One will find balance, energy and relief from pain, and most of all the inner confidence that we can heal our own bodies! This is a gem of a book. It's wisdom, priceless.

I have had ankylosing spondylitis (an auto-immune form of arthritis somewhat different than the author's) for 25 years and have spent the last 15 years exploring a variety of alternative healing modalities to deal with arthritis pain. Through my own exploration and dedication to healing, I have been able to manage my pain without prescription drugs for most of that time, yet the arthritis has continued to define much of the circumstances of my life. I read Allan's book 6 months ago at the suggestion of a friend and have been amazed to find how much I have learned despite my own extensive explorations in this arena. This book has helped me take my healing to a new level, assisting me with defining key triggers and inspiring me toward a new vision of health.
What impresses me most is that my own arthritis is different enough from Allan's that her techniques do not apply directly to my situation--and yet the example of her experience | [

Today I get to share the last step in finishing up the quilt top for the Daisy Chain Mystery Quilt Along hosted by Alison at Little Bunny Quilts. This is the block that is made with the remaining units.
The quilt top went together very easily. The big challenge was getting photos of the finished quilt top in the crazy wind that was blowing. I’m sorry, but these are the best photos that I could get. I love how this quilt top turned out and can’t wait for it to be quilted. | [

The American Heart Association estimates that 102.2 million adults in the U.S. have total blood cholesterol values of 200 mg/dL or higher putting them in the "borderline to high-risk" category for heart disease. *
Chronic inflammation in the body is directly linked to heart disease and other diseases such as asthma, arthritis, inflammatory bowel disease, irritable bowel syndrome, obesity and cancer. *
The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) reports that one out of every three U.S. adults has high blood pressure which is a major risk factor for heart disease, stroke, congestive heart failure, and kidney disease. *
At Xooma, we produce premium quality products at surprisingly affordable prices. We understand the importance of providing honest "value" to our Members (especially in today's global economic times) and it shows in everything we do. Perhaps that's why we're one of the few Companies in our industry who has been successfully serving people's health needs for more than 29 years. | [

Malaria protein could give us a broad cancer treatement
Malaria has been a menace in Sub-Saharan Africa and other parts of the world, with about 3.2 billion people at risk of contracting it (World Health Organization, 2015). WHO also states that in 2015, Africa had 89% cases and 91% of malaria deaths. In spite of this, scientist have spent sleepless nights to do more research on malaria and its protein, and found that it could aid in cancer treatment.
Tumor cells, placenta and malaria have something in common; a sugar. Not just any sugar but one that can pave way for development of broad cure effective against ranges of cancer. This discovery was published in a book called Cancer Cell, as a result of collaboration between the University of British Columbia, the University of Copenhagen and BC Cancer Agency, and offers an explanation to observations scientists longed to explain. The World Health Organization (WHO) says that in low transmission settings where women of reproductive age have relatively little acquired immunity to malaria, there is pregnancy associated with malaria. But the scientists were more interested about another possible cause of malaria in pregnancy, which could lead to an incredible solution to cancer.
They discovered that the malaria parasite, Plasmodium falciparum makes infected red blood cells to produce and present a malarial protein called VAR2CSA, which sticks to a type of sugar exclusively found in the placenta, which is also present in tumor cells. It was also interesting to find out that both placental and tumor cells divide rapidly. “Scientists have spent decades trying to find out similarities between placenta tissue and cancer, but we didn’t have technology to find it,’’ study coauthor and project manager Mads Daugaard in a statement. “When my colleagues discovered how malaria uses VAR2CSA to embed itself in the placenta, we immediately saw its potential to deliver cancer drugs in a precise controlled way to tumors.”
The researchers also tested the protein against normal and cancer cells and encouragingly, the drug displayed specificity to cancer cells only. They saw it kill up to 95% of the cancer cells lines investigated including brain, blood, prostate and breast. This was done in a culture dish, but they went further and tested it in mice, which gave an impressive result. Another two companies in the world are already working towards developing a compound suitable for trials in humans.
There is some irony that a disease destructive as malaria can be exploited to treat another dreaded disease. Should this work, it would be easier to treat multiple cancers using a single drug. The long term effect will be cheap and safer chemotherapy. | [

Growth and quality parameters of Tea (Camellia sinensis) mediated by arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi
Keywords:Antioxidant, Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi, Camellia sinensis, Chlorophyll, IAA, Polyphenol
Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) inoculation not only increases the growth but also improves the quality of many commercial plants. Tea (Camellia sinensis) plants were grown on different growth medium (with and without AMF inoculation) and the chemical properties of the leaves were assayed and compared. The growth media were sterilized soil with AMF, sterilized soil, natural soil inoculated with AMF, natural soil, and natural soil in natural condition with AMF. The highest root colonization (23 %) was found in tea plants grown on natural soil with AMF, whereas no colonization was found in the sterilized soil treatment. The highest level of leaf chlorophyll-a (2.74±0.06 μg.mL-1), chlorophyll-b (1.77±0.03 μg.mL-1) and carotenoid (0.35±0.01 μg.mL-1) contents were found in tea plants grown on natural soil under natural condition with AMF. The highest polyphenol concentration (64.46 mg.L-1) was found in natural soil inoculated with AMF whereas the lowest (38.09 mg.L-1) was recorded in sterilized soil. The highest contents of tannin (30.34 mg.mL-1) and reducing sugar (46.61 mg.L-1) were recorded in plants grown on natural soil under natural condition with AMF and the lowest values (21.22 mg.mL-1, 33.16 mg.L-1, respectively) in sterilized soil treatment. Though antioxidant properties (% scavenging effect) did not differed due to treatments, the highest IAA (Indole-3-acetic acid) concentration (3.16 μg.mL-1) was recorded in tea plants grown on natural soil under natural condition with AMF. The study concludes that AMF inoculation improves the quality of tea leaves.

Experts: Insurgencies In Southern Iran Could End Up Bolstering Regime
Shiite Arabs and nomadic Baluchi in the country’s southern provinces have increased their violent campaigns, posing a threat to a monolithic regime
Iranian authorities arrested 10 people in connection with last week’s suicide bombing—claimed by al-Qa’ida-linked Ansar al-Furqan—that killed two people at a police headquarters in the country’s southeast.
It comes on the heels of another attack in late September by four gunmen dressed in military fatigues who opened fire at a parade in Khuzestan, a southwestern province bordering Iraq. Both Islamic State and the separatist group Ahvaz National Resistance claimed responsibility for the shooting which killed 25 people.
The uptick in violence is part of a growing insurgency in southern Iran by two different peoples: namely, ethnic Arabs in Khuzestan Province and nomadic Baluchi, primarily Sunnis, located largely in Sistan and Baluchestan Province. The former are struggling to achieve statehood or, at the very least, partial self-rule, while the latter feel threatened in a predominantly Shiite state.
“Whereas the Baluch militants frame their plight as a struggle against oppression and victimization at the hands of the ‘apostate’ Shiite regime, the Arab separatists frame theirs as a struggle against the ‘Persian enemy,’ which prevents the emergence of an independent Arab state in Ahvaz [Khuzestan],” Chelsi Mueller, an Iranian expert at the Moshe Dayan Center at Tel Aviv University, explained to The Media Line.
In 2003, an armed insurgency in Sistan and Baluchestan Province began with the creation of the Jundullah group, whose initial mission was to gain equality for Sunnis in Iran. Jundullah’s first act of violence was the ambush of former president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’s motorcade, followed by a series of bombings, shootings and kidnappings targeting government officials and citizens alike. After the group’s leader was killed in 2010, members shifted focus towards waging Jihad in order to restore an Islamic caliphate.
In Khuzestan Province, the Arab Struggle Movement for the Liberation of Ahvaz (ASMLA) aims to carve out its own autonomous region for ethnic Arabs considered a minority even though they also are Shiites. While the oil-rich province is a primary source of Iran’s wealth, the Arabs therein are often denied the economic dividends.
ASMLA was created in 1999 and six years later launched a series of suicide bombings. Last year, the group took credit for blowing up two oil pipelines in Khuzestan Province.
“Iran is a very multi-ethnic state but also a very ideological one [and the leadership] opposes all attempts at separatism,” Dr. Jonathan Spyer, a Research Fellow at the Jerusalem Institute for Strategic Studies, stressed to The Media Line. “To this end, Iran deals with the insurgencies brutally, employing the [Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps] to mass arrest and kill people.”
In fact, the IRGC in June assassinated Molavi Jalil Qanbar-Zehi, leader of the Baluchi Ansar al-Furqan organization, and last month drew widespread criticism after attempting to execute the head of the ASMLA on Danish soil. Another member of the latter group was murdered last year in The Hague with many pointing the finger at Iran.
Dr. Eldad Pardo, a Middle East expert at Jerusalem’s Hebrew University, believes that ongoing unrest in southwest Iran may, somewhat counter-intuitively, benefit the mullahs in the long-run.
“Iran’s major argument to maintain popular support is that it is a stable country, unlike others in the region like Iraq and Syria,” he contended to The Media Line.
“If we see major violence it means the regime can’t exercise control, but with small-scale [relatively infrequent] attacks Tehran’s case that it provides security for its people is bolstered.”
Meanwhile, the Islamic Republic continues to deflect blame onto other foreign powers, foremost Saudi Arabia, which it claims finances and provides logistical support for the insurgency movements.
“However, it is hard to see how this would help other Gulf countries,” Dr. Pardo concluded, “as the attacks help garner support for the regime and the Iranians would retaliate against them.”

Fast Actuation of Hydraulic Switching Valve by Parametrically Excited Structures
Sprache des Titels:
Proceedings of the 6th UK Mechatronics Forum Conference (Mechatronics '98), Skövde, Sweden
The mathematical model and several design ideas for a new type of hydraulic switching valve are presented. Design goals are extremely high switching frequencies (in the order of 1 kHz), and robust and simple mechanical components and control electronics. The actual flow control element is driven by a parametrically excited elastic structure, in this case a beam. A method that allows an appropriate design of this beam is developed. A first prototype with hydraulic force control was built and its set-up is presented. Several design ideas for future, high speed versions are discussed focusing on piezoceramic actuators, the elastic structure, and the flow control element as key components. | [

The program, run by the Foundation for Agrarian Innovation and Corfo, seeks a potential market of 4,000 million dollars a year. An ambitious program that aims to create a healthier food industry in the country, which has access to a potential export market. of 4,000 million dollars a year, they launched the Foundation for Agrarian Innovation (FIA), the Ministry of Agriculture and Corfo for more than 200 people.
The initiative, in which ProChile, the Choose Living Healthy program, the Office of Agrarian Studies and Policies (Odepa) and the Chilean Food Safety Agency (Achipia) participate as allies, considers the creation of information networks in the fields of technology, markets and regulation, while empowering technology managers and brokers in that area, the organization of face-to-face activities (seminars, talks, meetings, etc.) and the implementation of a virtual platform.
“By promoting the creation of a healthier food supply, agricultural and food entrepreneurs will be able to turn to markets that show an increasingly dynamic demand for this type of product, such as the USA, Europe and Asia”, pointed out the Minister of Agriculture (S), Álvaro Cruzat.
The Healthier Food Innovation Program (PIA+S) was generated after FIA and Corfo discovered the existence of information asymmetry in the local value chain, which prevented the global demand for healthier food from being met, a market that today would exceed USD 100,000 million a year.
“SMEs and entrepreneurs are the business segments that have the greatest opportunities for developing new businesses in this industry. If we want to be a developed country by 2020, we need to add value to our goods, as this program encourages,” said Corfa’s Executive Vice President, Hernán Cheyre.
Therefore, the initiative is aimed both at entrepreneurs with new projects, as well as at small and medium-sized enterprises that want to innovate food, which will be given access to relevant information in the field of new technologies, business, and legal and regulatory aspects. A lower search cost than the current one.
“Through our network of 54 commercial offices around the world, we will support initiatives such as researching international trends, developing specific market profiles for healthy products and positioning campaigns abroad so that our entrepreneurs have more tools to enable them to internationalize their healthy food offering,” added ProChile’s international deputy director, Carlos Honorato.
The launch – held at the Gabriela Mistral Center (GAM) – was also attended by the director of Achipio, Nuri Gras; deputy director of Odepa José Ignacio Vargas and executive secretary of the Choose Living Healthy program Pauline Kantor.
Prior to launch, the Program held a series of meetings with potential beneficiaries in the Metropolitan, Maule and Los Lagos regions, which will be replicated elsewhere in the country.
“The aim of these meetings is to expand the networks of participants – businessmen, entrepreneurs, suppliers, researchers, investment funds, incubators and the public sector – and to support the exchange of information between them, for example, through dynamics that will facilitate networking,” reported the executive director of the FIA Fernando Bass.
In addition, strong community building work was conducted through social media, an effort that resulted in the creation of a community of more than 1,000 entrepreneurs and innovators in healthier food. | [

Knowing how wasteful Phil is(throwing out 1/2lb of meat), he probably dumps the whole cat box out instead of scooping.Cats do not piss and shit as much as people (including Phil) thinks, unless you're giving them alotta food, I don't understand how he has so much litter that he has to throw out, because a cat does not dirty the entirety of the litter as soon as it uses it, just the small little crystals and the shit itself, the waste from a cat is incredibly miniscule.
So I'm guessing he just straight up chucks all the litter into bags even when it starts to smell even a little bit like cat piss?
What a grade a numbskull, no way could this dude ever take care of a fucken kid in his sorry life.
Knowing how lazy he is, he probably stuff it in one of those bins and forgets about it. Out of sight out of mind. He probably doesn't bother/forgets to take the trash out to the curb. | [

Advocating for Women’s Rights and Sudan’s Democratic Future
Nuba Women for Education and Development Association, 2020 Democracy Award Winner
The Nuba Women for Education and Development Association (NuWEDA) supports the women of Sudan to engage in peace processes and activism on local and national issues related to women’s rights. Now during a time of change in the country, NuWEDA focuses on advancing a national women’s agenda, passing legal reforms to protect women’s rights, and identifying and training women to serve in the transitional national assembly.
“What is keeping me [going] is the situation of the women I'm seeing, who are coming from the Nuba Mountains, coming from Darfur, coming from Blue Nile, coming even from some areas within the middle of Sudan, who have no education, whom they feel they have no role at all,” says Kamilia Kura, president of NuWEDA. “So I saw that I have a role, I have to do something for my community and especially the women.”
The Nuba Mountains is a historically-marginalized region in Sudan that has endured multiple conflicts, in addition to ethnic cleansing, aerial bombardments, and denial of humanitarian aid. Founded in 2002 to improve the welfare of these communities, NuWEDA promotes the active political participation of Nuban women and girls, and helps them gain access to education, healthcare and jobs skills. The organization campaigns against sexual and gender-based violence and for the elimination of all forms of discrimination against women in Sudan, and leads advocacy efforts for women’s inclusion in the resolution of Sudan’s many conflicts.
“The whole community was out for the revolution but women, we were really behind it very strongly, and they were even leading in the revolution.” explained Ms. Kura. “And I was so happy to see that what we have been struggling to do for a long time, it is now that we are seeing it happening in front of us.
