Thanks in advance. browser output A: I actually tried your given query and it returned a "status" : "OK". However, for some addresses that you got zer0_results, as discussed in Directions Response Elements, the following are the indications of values in the status field within the Directions response: * *NOT_FOUND indicates at least one of the locations specified in the request's origin, destination, or waypoints could not be geocoded. *ZERO_RESULTS indicates no route could be found between the origin and destination. To avoid these error codes, please check parameter values that you have entered in your HTTPS Directions requests. As standard in URLs, all parameters are separated using the ampersand (&) character. The list of parameters and their possible values are enumerated in Request Parameters.

The study, published in the journal Nano Letters, was led by A.T. Charlie Johnson, director of Penn's Nano/Bio Interface Center and professor of physics in Penn's School of Arts & Sciences; Renyu Liu, assistant professor of anesthesiology in Penn's Perelman School of Medicine; and Mitchell Lerner, then a graduate student in Johnson's lab. It was made possible through a collaboration with Jeffrey Saven, professor of chemistry in Penn Arts & Sciences. The Penn team also worked with researchers from the Seoul National University in South Korea. Johnson's group has extensive experience attaching biological components to nanomaterials for use in chemical detectors. Previous studies have involved wrapping carbon nanotubes with single-stranded DNA to detect odors related to cancer andattaching antibodies to nanotubes to detect the presence of the bacteria associated with Lyme disease. The groups of Saven and Liu have used computational techniques toredesign the mu-opioid receptor to make it easier to use in research. In its natural state, the receptor is not water soluble, making many common experimental techniques impossible. Worse, proteins like this receptor would normally be grown in genetically engineered bacteria to generate the quantity necessary for extensive study, but parts of the natural mu-opioid receptor are toxic to the E. coli used in this method. After Saven and Liu addressed these problems with the redesigned receptor, they saw that it might be useful to Johnson, who had previously published a study onattaching a similar receptor protein to carbon nanotubes. In that case, the protein was difficult to grow genetically, and Johnson and his colleagues also needed to include additional biological structures from the receptors' natural membranes in order to keep them stable. The high reliability of the manufacturing process — only one of the 193 devices on the chip failed — enables applications in both clinical diagnostics and further research.

View article without comments DC HipHop Caucus and Congress people push for Katrina bill by nancy shia (c)2006 Sunday, Mar. 19, 2006 at 10:11 PM [email protected] (email address validated) Pushing political pressure is a long struggle cmi-cleofields58.jpg, image/jpeg, 288x216 On Tuesday, March 14th, 10,000 Katrina survivor families were scheduled to be evicted from hotels in Mississippi and Louisiana. The same day, several congress people, civic leaders, and Katrina survivors held an 85-minute press conference in Congress (2226 Rayburn House Office Building, Washington, D.C.), addressing the dire situation for many survivors and legislation proposed to address the needs of survivors. HR 4197's stated purpose is "to provide for the recovery, reclamation, restoration and reconstruction of lives and communities and for the reunion of families devastated by Hurricane Katrina and to address the issues of poverty exposed by Hurricane Katrina." The bill was introduced by Representative Melvin Watt from North Carolina on November 2, 2005 and referred to the House Budget Committee on the same day. It is still in the House Budget Committee with no hearings scheduled to get it out of committee and onto the floor of the U.S. House of Representatives. The 62 co-sponsors of the bill are John Barrow [D-GA], Sanford Bishop [D-GA], Robert Brady [D-PA], Corrine Brown [D-FL], George Butterfield [D-NC], Julia Carson [D-IN], Donna Christensen [D-VI], William Clay [D-MO], Emanuel Cleaver [D-MO], James Clyburn [D-SC]. John Conyers [D-MI], Joseph Crowley [D-NY], Elijah Cummings [D-MD], Artur Davis [D-AL], Danny Davis [D-IL], Eni Faleomavaega [D-AS], Chaka Fattah [D-PA], Harold Ford [D-TN], Barney Frank [D-MA], Charles Gonzalez [D-TX]. Al Green [D-TX], Raul Grijalva [D-AZ], Luis Gutierrez [D-IL], Alcee Hastings [D-FL] Michael Honda [D-CA] Jesse Jackson [D-IL] Sheila Jackson-Lee [D-TX] William Jefferson [D-LA] Eddie Johnson [D-TX], Stephanie Jones [D-OH], Carolyn Kilpatrick [D-MI], Dennis Kucinich [D-OH], Barbara Lee [D-CA], John Lewis [D-GA], Cynthia McKinney [D-GA], Kendrick Meek [D-FL], Gregory Meeks [D-NY], Juanita Millender-McDonald [D-CA], R. Bradley Miller [D-NC], Gwen Moore [D-WI], Eleanor Norton [D-DC], Major Owens [D-NY], Donald Payne [D-NJ], Charles Rangel [D-NY], C.A. Dutch Ruppersberger [D-MD], Bobby Rush [D-IL], Janice Schakowsky [D-IL], David Scott [D-GA], Robert Scott [D-VA], Bennie Thompson [D-MS], Edolphus Towns [D-NY], Debbie Schultz [D-FL], Maxine Waters [D-CA] Diane Watson [D-CA], Lynn Woolsey [D-CA], Albert Wynn [D-MD]. An important highlight of the bill would give Katrina survivors the right to vote in satellite voting operations much like what our government recently provided for Iraqis and Afghanis living in this country but wishing to vote in their home country's elections. Several speakers explained how the upcoming elections scheduled in April in New Orleans are in violation of the Voting Rights Act of 1965, which requires certain states (including Louisiana and Mississippi) to "preclear" changes in electoral process. Hurricane Katrina dispersed over 300,000 survivors among 44 states. The voting process moving forward at this time disenfranchises all these survivors unless they are able to physically return to New Orleans to vote. While the press conference was winding down, about 200 people marched from the U.S. Capitol to the White House for a rally and vigil. The rally took place in Lafayette Park across the street from the White House. To the dismay of the marchers, they were greeted in the park by U.S. Park Police who were intent on imposing every little park regulation they knew against the people gathering. Bicyclists were not allowed to park their bikes to park benches. Camera people were not allowed to use their tripods. To the delight of all those present, the organizers of the event passed out t-shirts supporting HR 4197 and the inalienable rights of Katrina Survivors. The highlight of the afternoon was Courtney Dove singing her original song "On the Rise". Courtney's voice rivals Tracy Chapman's, and it is indeed DC's loss that she left here to go live in New York City. One of the most moving speeches was from Damu Smith, who got up off the radiation table at a local hospital to come to the park to speak. Damu recalled the days of the antiapartheid struggle in DC, when Congresspeople and celebrities would routinely get arrested at the South African embassy protesting against apartheid. The effort to secure equality and human rights for Katrina survivors will take a consistent concerted long-term effort in Washington in order to exert the necessary pressure on the rightwing establishment to make these changes happen. Rev. Weegar of Gulfport Louisiana [email protected] cmi-ronweegar2.jpg, image/jpeg, 384x288 Reverend Ron Weegar of Gulfport Louisiana, spoke of the difficulties faced by many people in Louisiana. cmi-conyers40.jpg, image/jpeg, 288x216 an early cosponsor to the bill HR 4197.

Kim Gandy, president of NOW cmi-kimgandy94.jpg, image/jpeg, 360x270 Ms. Gandy is a native of New Orleans and spoke of a friend who called herself "one of the lucky ones". Her friend had a daughter in another city in Louisiana and was able to get to her daughter's place to be safe. She "only" lost her home and her car and her job. Congresswoman Diane Watson cmi-dianewatson77.jpg, image/jpeg, 384x288 Rep. Watson is from Los Angeles.

In it, a reader asks the DC Indymedia editors why there is an abudance of anti-semitism on DC Indymedia. Nancy Shia's tirade against him is quite telling. First, the complaint http://lists.indymedia.org/pipermail/imc-dc-editorial/2005-February/0225-w4.html "Dear Indymedia Editors, Why does DC Indymedia tolerate many displays of anti-semetic racism? Do you believe that using the synonomous term "Zionist" excuses these racial slurs and displays of anti-semitic hatred? Current Titles From Newswire Page 1: 1) Why I don't like Jews 2) Russian Zionist Oligarch Arch-Criminals Shielded byUS Government and Its Complaisant Media 3) Awaiting the Prisoner of Zion From Within Israel'sFirst Circle Current Title From Features Page 1: Al Nakba Denial: Zionist Revisionist History Best Regards,Mario" And Nancy Shia's response. Note her seething hatred for Israel. http://lists.indymedia.org/pipermail/imc-dc-editorial/2005-February/0225-vj.html "Mario, Tell me why something written against the actions and policies of the Israeli government is anti-Jewish, just like something written against the Bush Administration is not anti-American. In fact, it is probably proAmerican. Sharon, like Bush, is a maniac. and governments are evil. Not peoples.By claiming antisemitism and attacking the left for its exposure of what the Israeli government does, you are diminishing the seriousness of the charge of antisemitism, to the harm of both Jewish and Arab peoples. Please stop it. N Shia" Nancy Shia evidently thinks articles such as "Why I don't like Jews" are not anti-semitic and conform with the alleged anti-racism policies of DC Indymedia. Nancy Shia's utter lack of intelligence clearly shines through in her answer to Mario Klein. dcindymediawatch.blogspot.com/2006/03/nancy-shia-excuses-anti-semitism-on-dc....

Please see our player page for Nolan Gorman to see projections for today, the next 7 days and rest of season as well as stats and gamelogs designed with the fantasy baseball player in mind. We've reached the end of the NL Central, and with only one division left to cover I'd say it's been a productive offseason. The redbirds are in good shape down on the farm – as you'd expect. The top two specs should be flipped and flopped according to your window of opportunity. Reyes will start contributing this season, while Gorman – who I think is the better overall prospect – won't be ready for harvest until late 2021/2022. Since Opening Day is an ungodly March 28th this year (hooray for postponed games!) I'll put out a list of prospects you should know for redrafts this Wednesday. Best thing to do is just stay seated and keep refreshing this site until then. No need to burn those precious calories moving. Razzball's own Paul The Martian (on Twitter @PaulTheMartin) makes a guest appearance on this week's Ditka, Sausage Pod! Discussion topics include 2019 #2earlymock drafts, Yankees players, The Martian's expectations for Nolan Gorman, Alex Kiriloff, Keston Hiura, and Jesus Luzardo, as well as, potential tax evasion techniques, and of course, some flat earth discussion. Are Aaron Judge and Christian Yelich fantasy first rounders for 2019? Acuna or Vlad in dynasty leagues? Gleyber or Andujar for rookie of the year? Who is Black Grapefruit?

Upcycle: understand this concept and its relation to art If we traced a timeline, we would be able to clearly see the many ways art has influenced our perception of nature and how we have been relating to the environment around us. Even though it may not have been the French impressionist painter Claude Monet's intention at the time, his 1877 painting The Gare Saint-Lazare interestingly portrayed Europe by the end of the Industrial Revolution, after 1840. Due to its significant inventions and discoveries, as the locomotives and the telegraph communications, historians consider this period not only a social and technological milestone but also a marker of natural resources' degradation and exploration for the sake of development. By almost poetically portraying the effects of light, seeping through the glass roof, and clouds of smoke coming out of the locomotives, Monet created a classic example of how art can document the relation between men and the environment at a given time. Besides documenting, other events and contexts demanded art to play different roles towards environmental issues. Take the emergence of the counterculture in the United States in the 1960s, for example. This movement, famous for the hippies and the civil rights mobilizations, was characterized by the rejection of conventional social norms as a response to issues like America's involvement in Vietnam in 1965 and had an artistic facet known as Environmental Art. Artistic manifestations as Art Povera and Land Art suggested a new outlook on men's connection to nature by returning to simple objects and messages. They also demonstrated how art could be used from that moment on as a political statement and shed light on environmental problems. But it was only in the 1990s and 2000s that art gained an even more significant role in constructing a more sustainable and conscient world: an active transformation tool. It was then that artists started to find ways of using art as a possible solution for environmental issues. Among the many creative alternatives that emerged at that moment, one of the most interesting is upcycling. Have you ever heard about it? What you need to know about Upcycle The upcycling technique consists of reusing objects and materials to create new items, often with different functions, without changing the original object's main characteristics. An upcycled item usually equals or outdoes its original in quality due to the design effort in adding value to it. Interestingly, the dates of some important mentions to upcycling coincide with those of significant worldwide environmental events. The first record of usage of the term upcycling was by the entrepreneur and environmentalist Reiner Pilz, from Pilz GmbH, during an interview with Thornton Kay, from Salvo, in 1994. In an excerpt from the interview, Reiner reinforces that, unlike recycling, which he called downcycling, the purpose of upcycling is to give more value to products. This exploration for new ways of thinking about the use of resources and the perception of product's values is strongly connected to the spirit of the 1990s, a decade marked by the search for a better understanding of sustainable development, in parallel with growing trends regarding globalization, international trading, and technology. A series of important international conferences took place in this decade. Events as Rio92, the World Conference on Human Rights (Vienna, 1993), and the International Conference on Population and Development (Caio, 1994) helped internalize the concepts of environmental sustainability that we know today. In 2002 the UN held the conference Rio+10 as an attempt to reassess and implement the conclusions and guidelines obtained during Rio92 and obtain more ambitious and well-defined goals for some of the main environmental problems. Not coincidently, the same year that William McDonough and Michael Braungart also used the term upcycling in their book Cradle to Cradle: Remaking the Way We Make Things. There, McDonough e Braungart affirm that the upcycling's objective is to avoid wasting potentially useful materials, using existing ones. And they were right. We can still notice this and many other benefits of upcycling today. Upcycling objects reduces the amount of waste taken to landfills and the need to explore raw material for the manufacture of new products, being one of the great examples of Circular Economy, which proposes the use of waste as an input for the production of new goods. Very creative, isn't it? Up to this point, has it become clear to you how upcycling diverges from recycling? We can explain this difference a little more! Infra-recycling and supra-recycling Society generates an immense amount of waste. As a possible solution to this scenario, recycling has become a necessary action to protect the environment. With the evolution of this process, two strands of recycling emerged, infra-recycling and supra-recycling In infra-recycling, certain materials are used to manufacture new products of lesser value than the initial ones. This process is widespread for plastic and paper-made goods, for example. Food and drink packages usually go through this process since they cannot be 100% recycled, and part of their integrity is compromised. They are transformed into resins, and only after that can they be transformed into objects such as tables, chairs, and other plastic products - such as dumpsters. Another typical example of infra-recycling is the recycling of paper, usually transformed into lower quality products, as toilet paper, or used for photocopying. Infra-cycling is indeed essential and useful, but supra-cycling adds an exciting outlook to the recycling and production processes. Through creative interventions, the final products acquire even more value, as it happens in upcycling. Can you see the difference now? Discover some upcycled artwork Now that we have gone through all these concepts and how they relate to historical contexts and environmental issues, let's check some examples of upcycled products and artworks? Kite Coat On average, a kitesurf kite has a life cycle of approximately 300 hours of sailing. On the other hand, it takes 300 years for the nylon present in the kites' composition to decompose in nature. Based on these figures, the Brazilian brand Kitecoat decided to give a much more stylish destination to expired kites. Instead of being discarded and possibly damaging nature, the kites are used as material to produce exclusive coats that carry stories of great adventures. Ocean Solo Would you ever imagine finding large-scale animal sculptures, souvenirs, or art installations made of footwear? That's the solution Ocean Sole found to solve an unusual problem. Each year thousands of flip-flops wash up East Africa's coast. The Kenian team collects this discarded rubbish that harms ocean eco-systems and uses the material to build products that are both visually exciting and good for the environment. PalletFest The majority of shipping pallets are only ever used once, contributing a significant amount of waste in the volume of discarded materials. What would be a possible solution to this problem? So picture this: a whole festival made of pallets with cool pallet-made projects as a pallet maze or a pallet amphitheater hosting live musical performances. That's what you can find yearly in Denver at the PalletFest.The vast array of art displayed at the festival delivers an essential message about the number of useful products we have been throwing out. Art, society, and the environment go hand in hand. Art documents, influences, and acts directly in the way we relate to nature and build environmental awareness. Within this scenario, upcycling excellently exemplifies how art allows us to positively impact the world and develop a more sustainable mentality by experimenting with techniques and materials creatively. So here's a challenge for you: how about trying upcycling the next time you consider discarding one of your belongings? We are sure it would look great, and that nature would be thankful! Art and technology: understand this historical relationship Art in codes: understand the concept of computational art 3 social projects that use art as a transformation tool Art and garbage: understand the power of this relationship

After spending a glorious weekend in Maine with some great company and family, it was all too obvious that my next recipe just HAD to be a New England Clam Chowder. I also had to make it because this soup is a rich one and has always been one of my all-time favorites. It's just heaven in a bowl…so let's eat that too! And after you try this soup, wave goodbye to the canned version forever because THIS is on another level. I'm not even kidding. And because the Instant Pot is a maestro at cooking potatoes in a fraction of the time they'd take on the stove (not to mention melds flavors together even better), this is going to be SUPER fast and SUPER easy. Start off with 2 Idaho potatoes. Peel 'em and chop 'em into chunks. Then, take and onion and two celery stalks and dice 'em up nicely while reserving the leafy tops for later. Take some canned chopped clams IN their juice and put them through a strainer so that the clam juice is separated and reserved from the clams. Take some butter and toss it into the IP so it melts. From there, add the onions and celery and cook for a few minutes until slightly softened. And then add some flour to coat. Mix well! Add chicken broth, the clam juice, the leafy tops from the celery and bay leaves. Secure the lid and cook on high pressure. Quick release, discard the bay leaves and now let's stir it up and add the heavy cream and chopped clams. Bring to a simmer in the IP and then add some salt & pepper (and some Old Bay and/or Zatarain's if you want to give it an extra kick!). …and serve in a bread bowl (you may as well go all out)! ENJOY! Vegetarian (who eats seafood) or Pescatarian? You can absolutely sub clam or vegetable broth for the chicken broth! Just use 2 cups of water + 2 tsp of either Clam Better Than Bouillon or Vegetable Better Than Bouillon! Prefer a tomato-based Manhattan Clam Chowder instead? You're in luck! I have the best recipe right here! While I think the consistency is perfect as is, some may want it even thicker. To achieve this, after you add in the cream and bring to a bubble on "Sauté," add in a cornstarch slurry comprised of 2 tbsp cornstarch + 2 tbsp water, stir well and let bubble for 2 minutes. Then, switch to the "Keep Warm" setting and as the bubbles die down, stir and it will thicken more. Some people like theirs with bacon or pancetta. Feel free to cut up a crew strips or used diced pancetta and add in in while cooking the onions and celery! Serve in either a bread bowl or top with some oyster crackers…or do both!

It's always (well, almost always) a relief to finally see a long-term project come to fruition in print. And this week it was a real pleasure to get the final version of my latest paper. 'Houses in Early Modern Stirling: Some Documentary Evidence', published Review of Scottish Culture, volume 25 (2013) p. 42-59, really is the fruit if 'years of work'. It is astonishing how much detail about the structure and internal arrangements of early modern tenements and town houses survives in the archives. It was when I was asked to speak at the English Vernacular Architecture Group some years ago, that I realised how little systematic information was in print. So I decided to do some extra work to supplement my old notes. And this paper is the outcome. There are few surviving upstanding examples of 16th to early 18th century tenements, archaeology has often been destroyed and is not really applicable above ground level and photographs of facades tell is little about the internal spaces, where the people actually lived. That is why the information from the archives is so helpful. And I hope that this paper will be a useful supplement to earlier work. To some extent, indeed, it gets us off the ground and behind the facades, looking at the real spaces that real people occupied (halls, chambers, kitchens, lofts, wardrobes, vaults and all).

In 1980, it was expanded and renamed for Mary E. Stapleton, a former teacher, principal, and school committee member. A school has been located on the present site of Stapleton since 1848, when a gray, primary school building was built. Today the Mary E. Stapleton School serves over 430 children from kindergarten to grade five. The Framingham Public Schools have adopted a 'school choice" program allowing for families from every area of Framingham the possibility of choosing the Mary E. Stapleton School. As a result, the student body is representative of Framingham's richly diverse population. In 1997, the Mary E. Stapleton School embraced Environmental Sciences as its educational theme. A Naturalist in Residence was hired via the Massachusetts Audubon Society. At the same time, local historic, environmental and preservation groups joined forces to construct The Carol Getchell Nature Trail. Located just behind the Stapleton School this trail follows the Sudbury River and includes the portion of the Sudbury River that was designated as a Partnership Wild and Scenic River and listed in the National System of Historic Rivers on April 9, 1999. Working in collaboration with community groups, an outdoor classroom and walkway was constructed connecting the Sudbury River to the School. Additionally, although all students in the Framingham Public Schools learn about the natural world in their classrooms, at the Mary E. Stapleton School the curriculum is enriched with frequent trips outdoors. Each excursion into the environment is focused on enhancing and providing depth to classroom lessons. The goal is to guide students to become responsible stewards of the natural environment and to develop an appreciation for the natural world. As part of the Framingham Public School system, the Mary E. Stapleton School embraces the district's mission as follows: "The mission of the Framingham Public Schools, a system that understands and values our diversity, is to educate each student to learn and live productively as a critically thinking, responsible citizen in a multicultural, democratic society by providing academically challenging instructional programs taught by a highly qualified and diverse staff and supported by comprehensive services in partnership with our entire community." 25 Elm Street Framingham, MA 01701 (PHONE) 508-626-9144 (FAX) 508-877-4908 Site Map

[email protected] October 16, 2020 Virtual Concert Event "The Mipso Show (Vol 1)" Slated for October 29 Ticket Sales to Benefit More than 30 Independent Music Venues in North America October 16, 2020 – Today, Chapel Hill-based quartet Mipso – a stalwart of North Carolina's independent music community for close to a decade – released Mipso, their debut recording for Rounder. For Mipso, the band collaborated with producer Sandro Perri toward the goal of shaping a sonic landscape that is expansive and atmospheric yet also personal. The album, which is the follow-up to 2018's acclaimed Edges Run, is already earning critical praise. The album was featured in NPR Music's All Songs Considered New Music Friday: The Top 10 Albums Out Oct. 16. Critic Ann Powers noted, "they're really going beyond the frame of any genre on this record," while Robin Hilton singled out the band's "perfect harmonies," and said the album felt like "an instruction manual for how to be happy." He concluded his remarks by saying, "It just felt good listening to this one." Writing in No Depression, Corbie Hill lauded the album's "precise four-way harmonies, whip-smart arrangements, and an ever-broadening set of timbres," while INDY Week's Spencer Griffith called it "Mipso's richest album yet." PopMatters' Michael Bialas declared, "Mipso seems like a band that will never run out of ideas." And as Andy Crump observed in Paste,"Prevailing warmth defines Mipso's sound, the kind felt on a bright North Carolina day, but the songs themselves follow their own directions: Gentle strums on love tunes, big uplifting choruses on countrified numbers, plucking strings on upbeat bluegrass songs. Mipso's creativity…is on full display here." Earlier this week, the band announced "The Mipso Show (Vol 1)," a one-night only virtual concert experience that will stream live on Thursday, October 29, 2020 at 5:00 PM PDT/ 8:00 PM EDT, and will feature Mipso performing new material, fan favorites, and more. Event tickets are priced at $6.00, with limited edition merchandise bundles available at higher price points. Each ticket purchase includes on-demand access for 48 hours post event. Tickets available now at mipsomusic.com. The four members of Mipso – Wood Robinson, Libby Rodenbough, Jacob Sharp, and Joseph Terrell – deeply concerned about the looming crisis independent music venues are facing as the pandemic-related lockdown goes into its eighth month – decided to partner with over 30 venues across North America to help host this event. $5.00 of every ticket sold will go directly to support venue partners (a full list is below).

< — Disagreement — > (1) TN: We are in Book 3! And we now have an update schedule! Kinda. Also my translations are being stolen… Jerome prepared a cup of afternoon tea as he did every day and went into the Duke's office. To avoid disturbing his master who was currently engrossed in his work, Jerome tried to drop the tea and leave but the desk was covered in documents and the person who was supposed to be there was nowhere to be seen. As this was more or less a regular thing these days, Jerome shifted his gaze in the direction he expected his master to go and as expected, the balcony window was slightly open. He went closer to take a look and he could see the back of a tall man, leaning against the handrail. These days, the duke would start work in the afternoon and then lazy around; something he had never done before. He would spend a long time standing in the balcony and looking down below. And below was the beautiful picture of Her Grace who had recently taken to diligently growing colorful flowers in the garden. Her Grace frequently went out to personally examine the flowers in the garden and his master would watch her. Jerome initially thought that his master's honeymoon phase would be briefly interesting but now he knew that it wasn't going to be like that. If there was a case where the prodigal son starts to change after he gets married and becomes a reliable person, then that was practically his master. This was why one had to live long in the world. Jerome wondered if his master knew that when he was with Her Grace, it was as if nothing else in the world was visible, his gaze was completely locked onto her. Surprisingly, Her Grace did not seem conscious of his master's intense and straight-forward gaze. It would seem that Her Grace was unexpectedly, insensitive. There was something delicate between the two of them. Obviously, their relationship was good. Her Grace would give his master a pure smile, and his frigid master would warm up when her Grace was around. Nonetheless, undeniably, there was somewhat of an invisible thin wall between them. It was too ambiguous to criticize and he couldn't speak out hastily on something so vague. It was a new routine to put a brief report on what Her Grace did or whom she met on his master's desk, so Jerome couldn't postpone his report anymore. Even more so because it was related to the health of Her Grace. Jerome hesitated a little then approached the balcony. "Your Grace." "Mmm." "I have something to tell you about Her Grace." At those words, Hugo turned his head. He stared at Jerome then walked past him and went inside the office. But even after waiting a while, he didn't hear Jerome speaking. Hugo could tell that Jerome was being hesitant. "What's so difficult? Talk." "…Her Grace has never had her monthly guest." (1). Lucia had a promise with Jerome that she would tell the Duke about her body condition together with Jerome. But as time passed, Lucia was still the same, keeping her mouth shut. Jerome considered that she had forgotten so he reminded her but Her Grace had only said that she understood and went back to being silent. Jerome knew that interfering in this could be exceeding his authority but it was also the task of the steward to take care of his master's health. Jerome worried several times if he should urge or even force Her Grace to personally tell his master but eventually he decided to tell his master personally. "Monthly guest?" "The thing that women go through every month…" "Ah. Continue." Hugo was familiar with the common knowledge of women's physiological parts but the rest was sleeping at the bottom of his mind. He had never been with a woman long enough for her to have her period. Moreover, he had never been worried about a woman getting pregnant so he really hadn't thought about it. "At first, a maid was concerned about whether Her Grace was pregnant or not, but then Her Grace was looked at by the primary doctor who said that she wasn't pregnant. According to Her Grace, she has never had a monthly guest. She also refused to be looked at by the doctor for treatment. Milady said it was something that Your Grace already knows about so there was no need for treatment." "She is not pregnant so is it something serious if she isn't menstruating?" "It is not normal, after all, it would be impossible for Her Grace to get pregnant. Her Grace has to have a medical examination for us to know for sure." "What does she mean that I already knew…" [I cannot have a child.] Hugo furrowed his brows. He gave a forced laugh. She had definitely said that. Originally, it was not something one could easily say but she had simply said that she couldn't have a child as if it was something trivial. She had also given a small laugh. To her, her inability to be pregnant was not a big deal because she couldn't have a child anyways. She had spoken like she was telling a big secret but he had simply thought it was interesting. "Right. I knew about it." His head ached like it had been hit with a blunt weapon. There was an uncomfortable twisting in his stomach and he felt an anger within him that he didn't know what for, couldn't explain it or even give a reason for it. "What is the doctor doing?" (Hugo) "It is not an external disease so if Her Grace doesn't speak about it, the doctor cannot diagnose it." (Jerome) "Call her now." "…Yes, your Grace." Jerome could see that his master's mood had soured so he immediately went away without saying a word. While standing still, Hugo suppressed his anger and clenched his fists tightly. He then tried to calmly think of where his displeasure was coming from. She was very much the ideal wife he wanted. She controlled the servants moderately well and did not give him any issues. He had nothing to complain about nor was he uncomfortable. Recently, she'd had a lot of requests but it was different from the bothersome requests he was expecting. "Ha, dammit." He gave a heavy sigh, cupped his head in his hands and sat on the sofa. This wasn't normal. He realized he still had no idea about what she was thinking. All he knew about his wife was what was written in the few reports Fabian gave him. Their relationship was good. As least he thought so. Their conversations were fun and in the bedroom, they were passionate. But they had never really talked. Had she ever exposed herself to him? He seemed to have misunderstood that she had exposed all of her heart to him since she smiled so purely. Something suddenly came to mind so he called for Jerome and ordered him to bring the details of her spending. Jerome soon returned with the documents. "What about the doctor?" (Hugo) "I sent someone to call her." (Jerome) "I'll be coming along for the examination." As Hugo flipped through the documents and checked the details, his eyes grew cold. Apart from the cost of decorating the garden and the cost of throwing a tea party a few times, there was no other history of personal use. "Has she ever called for a tailor or a jeweler?" (Hugo) "She has not." (Jerome) "Even though she has thrown tea parties and gone outside several times?" "There are dresses used by former Duchesses of the family and ornaments passed down in the Taran family. The dresses were chosen, mended and worn while the ornaments were returned to the storage room after use." Hugo knit his brow tightly. It was an inexplicable feeling. He was upset but he didn't know exactly why he was upset. 'Wasn't this what you wanted?' These words echoed in his head. He got married to what he hoped for. A doll-like wife that only kept her position as the Duchess. He needed the status and for that he needed to marry but duties of a husband were troublesome so, he made a deal. He made a contract. A contract beneficial to the both of them. From the start, she said that what she needed was the title of Duchess. Of course, he had thought that she wanted the wealth and power that came with being a Duchess. It hadn't been long since they were married but he knew now. From the beginning, she was not interested in his wealth and power. So, what exactly was making him so unhappy? Why should it matter if she didn't want his power or wealth? There was nothing for him to lose. Rather, he should toast to this overwhelmingly favorable contract. But he continued to agonize about it. He wanted to know exactly why he was in such a foul mood. His current feeling was as if the ground at his feet had collapsed. He felt desperate, he felt anxious. But he didn't know why he was desperate or anxious. As he was about to descend into his thoughts again, Jerome's voice could be heard. "The doctor is waiting." 1. So, there are two words that can be used for menstruation/period. The one here translates directly to monthly guest but it seems like a more formal way of saying it. ← Release Schedule Update carolkuro now yes they will start to really become a couple, he is seeing beyond what he expects of an ideal woman. It was exciting his anguish even he did not understand why Gotta love it when Hugo keeps blaming himself XD Ya know what, even I'm not sure what's he getting so anxious about. Heh silly man. You just wanna know more about her, but pity u cuz she's maintaining neutrality and firmly following the contract… Making him frenetic. He wants familiarity and intimate relationship now huh, which is completely unneeded/unnecessary as the contract only requires her to be titled duchess. Hohohohoho… Time to shot your own foot Hugh ( ̄. ̄) or digging your own grave (๏_๏)..because you're already jinks yourself with your additional contract… Thanks for the chapter… I'm glad there is fix schedule… kisa-chan I THINK… he's anxious bc she's not spending his money…. bc that's ALL he can offer to her… MONEY AND POWER (in his mind anyway, since Lucia just asks for minimal stuff like approval to go out with Kate)… which Lucia doesn't REALLY need… she's fine with hand-me-downs and reusing old jewelries, promptly returning the jewels after use.. Hugh gifted her a necklace after much thought but she doesn't wear it… he's frustrated bc he feels that he isn't pampering her enough… not giving her enough…. ALSO, it was part of the agreement that they keep their own personal space in some sort of way, not giving her heart, or tries not to anyway. And that she had to be infertile bc there's Damian as the heir. But now, he wants to KNOW all about her, he wants her to love him (but he f*cked himself up bc of their contract), he wants her to think anout him the way he does to her, and probably have a child as proof of that love and his obsession to her…. Sorry, that was long… but that's already the short version… i tried… You summarized it perfectly! I feel like they really have to sit down and talk about that contract. It is creating a barrier between them You've summarized it well! Thank you for your work. After life experiences and reading so many stories (especially stories where the best meanings are implied), these are the kinds of things we start perceiving intuitively. Funny how it takes 2 paragraphs to explain something we just 'get'. Poor Hugh, he can't read this cheat sheet you've written, he lacks practice in the emotions department, hahaha. Now we're really getting to the good parts. This is the dark part of the night before the dawn, they might make a deeper relationship after these issues. The contract is Verbal ^^ And divorce has to be on both sides I will quote Hugo here: "In the Taran family tradition, we don't believe in such things as divorce. If you wish to separate yourself from the Taran family, you will only be able to do it after death. No, you probably won't be able to even after your death." -Ch 4. It's totally because she drew the line in the sand. They're still not husband and wife in the most true form, but Hugh is coming closer Ebonita Thanks for the chap Eliana Latif Thanks for the chapter, translator! ❤️❤️❤️❤️ It must have been a hard work to translate it. *Pats on the back* Damn he's cute! Also who's stealing from you can you let us know so we can sla… I mean report 😇 them and get others to know and stop them also …. haven't done this be fore so how do we stop them and a link to the real site? And leav comments? Cause they could just delet them…… I honestly dunno how to stop them. I think it would be worse for me to link them here and give em more people lol. Thank you anyways! Did any of you remember in the chapter of how the ducal house made their brides eat that plant or not? I think that they are playing right into the old tradition by making the ride as 'pure' as can be. Yes.. But no one knows except Philip.. The doctor of Taran.. What Hugo knew: there must be women that prepared for continuing Taran bloodline..but he didn't want that, so he didn't know specifics What Lucia know: Mugwort can cleanse the bodies as well as stopping menstruation and if she want to have a child she has to get treatment from two mix medicinal plan from period of time that she knew from Philip in previous life What Philip know: Hugo have a wife, but he didn't know that the wife already meet the requirements to women that specifically for continuing Taran bloodline, because in this life time he didn't get to meet her.. He is anxious because Lucia is not dependent on him. She doesn't want anything from him, not anything materialistic at least so he is nervous because she is not "bound" to him by any needs. While he is getting obsessed with her, she is still normal to him. Maybe in his mind, she is too independent from him so if she was without him, she would still be Lucia. However if he was without her…. I believe Hugh would definitely be changed. Probably for the worse…. This relationship dynamic is unbalanced so it makes him nervous. He needs her but it doesn't seem like she needs him so it makes him feel a bit insecure and anxious. Jajajja interesante como se retuerce en sus pensamientos. Pobre hombre jaja Thanks for the chapter 😚😚 Will your translations be ok? Some sites been having trouble with people stealing their hard work. My translations are fine. It is saddening that they are hosting my translations and giving no credit but I think most people read here so I'm happy about that the heartache he felt (but don't understand) is how heartbroken and disappointed he felt when he realized Lucia didn't love him. "Had she ever exposed herself to him? He seemed to have misunderstood that she'd exposed all of her heart to him since she smiled so purely." Basically his thought flow throughtout the chap; 'She wasn't worried she can't get a child with me.'(since not worried about her period) 'She doesn't want a child with me.' *realizes she didn't tell him her personal matters* 'She doesnt open up to me.' *realizes she didnt spend anything with his money* 'She isn't depending on me.' 'She doesn't love me.' For a guy who was head over heels and initially thought that their love is budding(and mutual), that would be devastating. Poor Hugh. Even tho he did ask for it to be a contract, he's so into her that I can't help sympathizing. Go melt her heart, poor guy. Oh and the fact that he had to rely on Jerome's reports actually shoes how little Lucia opens up to him. That he HAD to have Jerome provides reports to know her (and that's his only source of understanding her). Instead of her telling him about things herself. Finally he starting to realize little by little..💕

Goodreads review: "All Systems Red" by Martha Wells All Systems Red by Martha Wells Poor Murderbot. The android is clinically depressed, and for good reason. It's essentially a slave, it works for a corporation it despises, and its work assignments are usually boring or awful. Worse than that, if humans develop any respect for it, which they rarely do, they start to ask it about its feelings, and it feels horrible and doesn't want to talk about them. It just wants to be left alone to watch video series in peace. That doesn't happen. Murderbot is accompanying a team of humans on a mission of planetary exploration. Things go wrong, then the situation gets even worse. Murderbot's job is to keep its humans alive and safe. Somehow. While this may sound glum, it's actually funny and exciting. I'm looking forward to reading Murderbot Diary #2, "Artificial Condition," coming in May. Tags:goodreads 31st-Jan-2018 08:07 am (UTC) puddleshark I did love this... Glad to hear there's a sequel on the way. 31st-Jan-2018 10:12 pm (UTC) Yes, Murderbot investigates its past. · Goodreads review: "All Systems Red" by Martha Wells [+2] · puddleshark - (no subject) [+1]

Plumbing leaks can be frustrating for homeowners to deal with, especially if they're located underneath your home's concrete foundation. If you suspect that you may have a slab leak of this nature, contact your local plumbing contractor to schedule an inspection. Here is a basic overview on how slab leaks are repaired so that you know what to expect. Most slab leaks go unnoticed until water starts seeping up through concrete, causing it to swell and dome over the broken sewer or water line . Sometimes, visible signs of leakage are not available, requiring a plumber to use specialized listening devices in order to locate the source of the leak. Once a plumber has found the leak, he or she can determine how best to repair it. It's relatively easy to find a slab leak. Getting to the leak, however, is much more difficult. If you have a slab leak, your plumber has to jackhammer through your concrete foundation to uncover the leaky pipe in order to repair it. Failing sewer or water lines need to be repaired using materials that are appropriate for the type of line involved: For sewer lines, cast iron, PVC, or clay are the most common materials. With water lines, copper tubing is the standard choice. In some cases, it may be advantageous—not to mention, cost effective—for you to replace your pipes altogether instead of repeatedly repairing broken sections. Your plumbing professional should be able to advise you on whether or not to repair or replace. For over 40 years, All Plumbing , Inc. is proud to continue providing our customers with the highest quality service to meet all of their plumbing needs. Customer satisfaction is our guarantee. We offer the best residential and commercial plumbing services in Arlington, VA, which includes emergency plumbing, waterproofing, and sewer and water line repair.

Q: Why is my conditional function of adding an item from an array to another one not working? Basically I have an array called "Heroes" and through buttons I'm trying to add or delete certain items from that array to another one called "favorites". When adding a hero to favorites, the message "item added to favorites!" appears, but the part in which I display my favorites in the document appears to show a blank space instead of the hero's name like I want to. Also, the part of showing "item already added" or "favorites list full" doesn't work. Also, when trying to add more than a hero to favorites, it doesn't allow me to. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. The "clear favorites" button works just fine, and the "remove favorite" appears to do so as well. ´´´ const [favorites, setFavorites] = useState([]); const [message, setMessage] = useState(""); const addToFavorites = (id) => { if (favorites.includes((heroin) => heroin.id === id)){ setMessage("hero already in favorites!") } if (favorites.length = 6) { setMessage("favorites list full!") } const newFavorites = favorites.concat(heroin => heroin.id === id) setFavorites(newFavorites) setMessage("item added to favorites!") } const deleteFavorite = (id) => { const newFavorites = favorites.filter((heroin) => heroin.id !== id) setFavorites(newFavorites); setMessage(""); } {heroes.map((heroin)=>{ const {id, props} = heroin; return <div key={id}><h1>{props}</h1></div>; }) <button onClick={clearFavorites}>Clear favorites</button> <button value={id} onClick={()=>addToFavorites(id)}> Add to favorites</button> <button value={id} onClick={()=> deleteFavorite(id)}>remove favorite</button> <h4>{message}</h4> {favorites.map((favorite)=>{ const {name} = favorite; return ( <div> <h1>{name}</h1> </div> ) })} ´´´ A: Issues You are calling array functions that don't take callbacks. * *Array.prorotype.includes takes a value, not a predicate function. Since the favorites array doesn't have an exact strictly equal version of the (heroin) => heroin.id === id) function, false is returned because no element can match. *Array.prototype.concat will add whatever the value is that is passed to to a new copy of the array and return the array. *favorites.length = 6 is attempting to assign a value to the length property. Code: const addToFavorites = (id) => { if (favorites.includes((heroin) => heroin.id === id)) { // Always false! setMessage("hero already in favorites!"); } if (favorites.length = 6) { setMessage("favorites list full!"); } const newFavorites = favorites.concat(heroin => heroin.id === id); // only adds function instead of hero object setFavorites(newFavorites); setMessage("item added to favorites!"); } Solution * *Use Array.prototype.find to search the array for a specific value using a predicate function. *Concatenate the found element if not already contained in array. Code: const addToFavorites = (id) => { const hero = favorites.find((heroin) => heroin.id === id); if (hero) { setMessage("hero already in favorites!"); } else { if (favorites.length === 6) { setMessage("favorites list full!"); } else { setFavorites(favorites => favorites.concat(hero)); setMessage("item added to favorites!"); } } }

Hi. I'm afraid I don't know the answer. The guys at Flight Illusion might be able to answer for you. I do know that the units talk to P3D – I just don't know how compatible they are with A2A. Hi. I would strongly suggest 1080p. To my eye, I notice a big difference when I switch to 780. Your mileage may vary. Hi. Hope you've had success with MoveVR. Works great for me. And if you use the Oculus Debug Tool, which sits in one of the Oculus folders, you can run super-sampling without having to run the Oculus home software. Saves a few frames I'm sure. For me I had to unplug all other monitors other than the main PC monitor. As for how to use the Dash itself, there are plenty of videos online that can describe it better than I. I don't use electronics that require arduino save the GNS 530, and it works flawlessly. I can say that most of the folks on here who have built their own gauges etc. use ArdSimX.

Many of the activities and sights described on this page may be difficult to access due to road damage and closure to vehicle access. Please check current alerts and Day Hikes chart below for more information. For millennia, the Klallam people relied on fish nurtured by the Elwha River watershed. That relationship was largely severed in 1913, when the Elwha Dam was built, blocking fish runs five miles from the river mouth. Glines Canyon Dam was completed upstream in 1927. Though a state law required fish passage, both dams were built without it. Thousands of salmon no longer reached most of the Elwha valley.

So I'm now making a record of it all with a dashboard camera (dash cam). A dash cam was the very first accessory I bought and installed in our new Roadtrek CS Adventurous XL and now that I've been on the road for about a week, I can say there's not a mile of the route that we took from Michigan to the Emerald Coast of Florida's Panhandle that I haven't videotaped. Not many of those images will make a report, other than the still I captured to illustrate the quality of the imaging. But when we hit the mountains, or later this week when we cruise the Emerald Isles National Seashore here in Florida, I'll be using it to document the great beauty of the drive. My Windsheld Witness dash cam captures a 145-degree wide angle view. It also swivels around so I can video towards the back. Dash cams have been hugely popular in Europe, and especially Russia, for several years now. I'm predicting that 2015 is going to see them really take off in the U.S., especially among RVers. Use of a dash cam revolves on a simple concept: Documentation of your drive, be it across the United States or to the corner convenience store. Documentation of a trip: When traveling great distances, there are just too many beautiful places and things to stop and photograph, especially if you're sticking to a plan like my 330 rule and intend to actually make it to a specific destination. A dash cam provides for a thorough recounting of your journey. Looking through the windshield. The camera captures 1080p at 30fps. It attaches to the inside of the windshield with a suction cup that can be easily removed. is simple – so many things happen so fast for even the most skilled camera quick-draws. Take the Chelyabinsk meteor that was caught flying over Russia last February. Because so many dash cams are used in Russia, plenty of documentation of the event exists. Now, you may not be likely to catch such a visual and impressive event, but then again, maybe you will. Reports indicate Russia, in fact, has lead the way with dash cam use because of the weight the legal system puts on the video evidence, especially when it comes to auto insurance fraud, a particularly problematic issue in the region. As use has proliferated around the world (though it's hard to get a fix on exactly how many vehicles are equipped with dash cams) through growth of social media sites like YouTube, prices have dropped and the number of dash cam models continues to rise. G-sensor: Any worthwhile dash cam will use an SD card that stores new video and deletes the old after a certain period of time. This sensor will earmark any video connected with detection of an impact. One tip to consider when looking at adding a dash cam: Check state and local laws as they relate to dash cam use, mounting and recordings. Prices online run the gamut – from cheap, no-brand dash cams that cost about $10 to more elaborate versions that run into the hundreds of dollars. Many of the cheapest seem to look almost exactly the same as the more expensive versions. Further complicating matters is the fact that there isn't a dash cam industry-leading company. There isn't a GoPro for vehicles, in other words. That makes it that much more important to know how you are going to use your dash cam so you can know what features to look for and how much to spend. The best place to search and find one is Amazon. Here's a whole page of dash cams. The one I bought was from a company called Windsheld Witness. I bought mine for around $200 and chose a 32 GB memory card, good for about 11 hours of recording. The one I got was one of their last units. Their website says they are now sold out and temporarily not taking new orders. I bought because of a friend's suggestion. A big feature for me in choosing the one I got is that it has a flip down video screen that can show me what the camera is seeing. The mount also can swivel the camera around, to capture video of the inside of my RV. And it also picks up and records audio. A word about the memory card. Make sure it is a Class 10. Any other class of card may not be able to adequately capture HD video. I can pull out the card and transfer the video directly to my computer for editing. For you geeks it is H.264/MPEG4 video. It draws power from a cigarette plug. I'm enjoying it a lot so far. I only wish I had one last summer, when a big grizzly walked right in front of our vehicle in Wyoming. Or I wish I was running one when we drove the Going to the Sun Road in Glacier National Park in Montana. But I have one now and I'm sure you'll be seeing images captured with it as we continue Roadtreking across North America. Mike, does your dash cam have a built-in battery so it can turn on during an impact while you are parked? Our cigarette lighter outlet does not have power when the ignition is turned off. Hello Shirley Joiner, the camera system has state of the art, twin Supercapacitors (Each 2.7v, 5.5F) and collectively store power to deliver the required energy necessary to finalize writing of the current video file (when necessary), upon power cut off or when sudden impact disconnects the vehicle's battery completely. These Supercapacitors also maintain current date and time for extended periods, alleviating the need for an internal battery that would typically be useless in two years time. In other words, if you purchase a dash cam with an internal battery, plan on the that battery not working after two years time. I have used my GoPro Hero 3 as a dashcam. It has a looping feature, records audio and video and is small enough not to be a distraction for me. Shannon: The one thing that the GoPro doesn't have is the G-Force sensor which will preserve the images leading up to an accident and immediately following an accident. Accident images will not be overwritten even if the camera is left powered on. Since all of "us" are driving carefully a video image of the accident will prove what we the innocent driver actually saw when the other guy hit us. As a firefighter who responds to many accidents, the police investigators have to try to assume what happened in an accident because typically the witness statements don't necessarily match. A video would help prove what actually happened. Thank you for your chosen profession of being a firefighter. You've raised an extremely important concern. Drivers seeking to better protect themselves from fraudulent accident claims indeed should have a camera system that employs a G-Sensor feature. Many drivers have felt, in the past, that merely having a camera on and recording is sufficient. Such is not the case, as you well pointed out. Files can and will be overwritten and oft times not saved at all (finalized and saved), without a working G-Sensor feature. Our system employs G-Sensor and the sensitivity level is adjustable.

Modi's Maldives, Sri Lanka Visit June 15, 2019 By Lt. General P.C. Katoch (Retd) Photo(s): By PIB The Author is Former Director General of Information Systems and A Special Forces Veteran, Indian Army The Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi being welcomed by the dignitaries, on his arrival, in Maldives on June 8, 2019. Close on the heels of oath taking of Modi-led NDA government on May 30, 2019 attended by heads of BIMSTEC nations, re-elected Prime Minister Narendra Modi made his first overseas visit to Maldives and Sri Lanka on June 8-9, providing further boost to BIMSTEC and in line with India's SAGAR (Security and Growth for All in the Region) Doctrine and policy of 'Neighbours First'. Latter was reinforced with External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar having visited Bhutan as his first foreign trip. PM Modi's visit provided occasion to review recent developments in bilateral relations and exchanging views on issues of mutual interest to further strengthen the special relationship with these two countries." After a ceremonial welcome at Male, PM Modi and Maldives President Solih held one-on-one talks followed by delegation level talks on June 8. PM Modi was conferred with the Maldives' highest honour "Rule of Nishan Izzuddeen" by President Solih during a ceremony in Male. Modi addressed the Maldives Parliament, outlining his vision for a democratic, just and equitable world and his desire to see sustainable peace and progress in the Indian Ocean Region (IOR). On the issue of terrorism, Modi said, "Terrorism is a danger not just for a country or region but entire civilization. State sponsored terrorism is the biggest threat today. It is time for a global conference on terrorism". President Solih expressed deep appreciation on PM Modi's choosing Maldives as his first overseas destination during his second term in office. Solih reaffirmed his government's "India-First Policy" and pledged his government's full support towards deepening the multifaceted, mutually beneficial partnership between India and the Maldives. Modi stressed the high importance that India attaches to its relationship with Maldives and reiterated his determination to work together with Maldives to realise his vision of inclusive development. The two sides signed following MoUs/Technical Agreements: Cooperation in Hydrography; Cooperation in the field of Health; Establishment of Passenger and Cargo Services by Sea; Cooperation in Customs Capacity Building; Training and Capacity Building Programme for Maldivian Civil Servants, and; Sharing White Shipping Information. Both leaders jointly inaugurated the Composite Training Facility of Maldives National Defence Force in Maafilafushi, and the Coastal Surveillance Radar System by remote link. The President of Maldives, Mr. Ibrahim Mohamed Solih presenting the Maldives Highest Honour Order of the Distinguished Rule of Nishan Izzuddeen to the Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi, in Male, Maldives on June 8, 2019. In March 2019, India had extended financial support for T-bills, currency swap, $800 million Dollar Line of Credit Agreement assisting Maldives achieve sustainable social and economic development, $5.5 million for implementation of High Impact Community Development Projects, Solih thanked Modi for the $6.9 million cash for grant for socio-economic development projects. Both leaders agreed that dynamic people to people contact formed the backbone of the relationship between the countries. Both leaders agreed to enhance cooperation in the field of youth and sports, particularly in cricket. President Solih thanked the Government of India for its offer to construct a cricket stadium of international standards at Hulhumalé under the Line of Credit, and for its gracious offer for comprehensive development of cricket in the Maldives. Both leaders emphasised the need to improve connectivity between the two countries through the establishment of enabling infrastructure and in this regard, directed their concerned officials to expeditiously work towards starting a regular passenger-cum-cargo ferry service between Kochi (India) and Kulhudhuffushi and Malé (Maldives). Both sides agreed to enhance bilateral cooperation on issues of common concern including piracy, terrorism, organised crime, drugs and human trafficking. They agreed to set up a Joint Working Group on Counter Terrorism, Countering Violent Extremism and De-radicalisation. Both sides recognised the need to pursue reform of the main UN bodies, including the UNGA and UNSC. The Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi being welcomed by the Prime Minister of the Democratic Socialist Republic of Sri Lanka, Mr. Ranil Wickremesinghe, at Colombo, Sri Lanka on June 9, 2019. Solih reiterated his country's support for India's candidature for permanent membership of an expanded and reformed UNSC and for India's candidature for a non-permanent seat for the year 2020-2021. The ferry service between Kochi (India) and Kulhudhuffushi and Malé in Maldives will greatly boost India-Maldives relations, as will the cricketing ties. The Coastal Surveillance Radar System, inaugurated through remote link by both leaders, operationalised the 10 Coastal Surveillance Radars recently set up by India in Maldives, linking a Central Control Station at the Maldives Maritime Rescue Coordination Centre in Villingili island near the national capital Male. This radar system will assist Maldives safeguard its sovereignty in its Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ), by monitoring movement at sea. The system would also be a strategic asset to India in detecting and responding to threats to its national security and sovereignty. From Maldives, PM Modi went to Sri Lanka at a time when Sri Lanka is facing the aftermath of the horrific Easter Sunday Bombings claimed by the Islamic State that claimed over 250 lives. He met with Sri Lanka President Maithripala Sirisena and went to pay homage at the at St Anthony's Shrine, Kochchikade which had been hit with the serial bombings. Modi's visit for paying homage at the shrine indicated India's solidarity with the people of Sri Lanka in their war against terror and boosting diplomatic ties between both nations for collective global counter terrorism effort. India is the lead country for cooperation in four priority areas of BIMSTEC, one being: counter-terrorism and transnational crime. Sri Lanka assumed chairmanship of BIMSTEC in August last year, and this year BIMSTEC meeting in Sri Lanka is likely to focus on trade, customs facilitation, grid connectivity, and counter-terrorism. Modi planted a sapling at the Presidential Secretariat in the presence of Sirisena and while addressing the Indian Community at India House in Colombo said that India's position in the world is getting stronger and a large part of that credit goes to Indian Diaspora. Sirisena said that India's role is vital for peace in the India Ocean. All in all Prime Minister Modi's visit to Maldives and Sri Lanka was strategically important and well prioritised, which also sent a strong message to the world for a global conference on terrorism.

Boyd believes Burnley fans can play major role George Boyd runs at Ryan Bertrand at Southampton in Burnley's last game Chris Boden Published: 12:34 Updated: 13:15 Monday 30 March 2015 George Boyd believes the Burnley crowd can play a big role in helping the Clarets stay in the Premier League. Boyd was blown away by the atmosphere at Turf Moor for the last home game - the 1-0 win over champions Manchester City, in which he scored the all-important goal. George Boyd was impressed with the atmosphere the fans created against Man City And he feels a repeat in the forthcoming televised games, on Sunday against Tottenham Hotspur, and the following week against Spurs' North London rivals Arsenal, would be a huge lift for the players. The Clarets are currently one point from safety with eight games remaining, and Boyd looked ahead to a home double header: "They're massive games, especially with the atmosphere we had against Manchester City. "If we can get that again and get the crowd behind us, then we can beat anyone on our day. "It was amazing against City, I've not known anything like that since I've been here. If we can get the crowd behind us, we can beat anyone on our day "It really spurred everyone on, and it was a massive part of us winning the game. "It gives us a great chance and gives everyone a lift so they can definitely be our 12th man." It will be the fourth time Burnley have taken on Spurs this season after two FA Cup meetings, and Boyd added: "We proved last week we can beat anyone so we're looking forward to it. "We've played them a lot so we know the way they play and we look forward to that." Burnley are likely to come up against man of the moment Harry Kane, who netted within 79 seconds of coming on for his England debut against Lithuania at Wembley on Friday night. Kane, who is expected to make his first start for his country in Turin against Italy tonight, has 29 goals for Spurs so far this season, including one against the Clarets in Tottenham's 2-1 win at White Hart Lane in December. He is one of the favourites to be named Player of the Year, but Boyd feels Kane's England Under 21 strike partner Danny Ings - who could be reunited with him at the European U21 Championships in the summer - is capable of achieving similar: "Ingsy has got all the attributes to be one of the best strikers in the country. "I'm sure Ingsy was disappointed (not to be called up for the full squad) but he will prove what a good player he is. "There's a lot of competition up front which is great for England. I'm sure he will be back with the goals soon and he will be fine."

Before PC Peter Grant can get his head round the case, a town planner going under a tube train and a stolen grimoire are adding to his case-load. But then Peter gets word of something very odd happening in Elephant and Castle, on an housing estate designed by a nutter, built by charlatans and inhabited by the truly desperate. Reviewed on 26th May 2016 The fourth book in the Rivers of London series is another thrilling and mysterious adventure for Peter Grant and his colleagues at The Folly, headquarters of the Metropolitan Police's only wizard division. There's a lot that serves as confrontation of the series' ongoing plot and I don't think this one really works as a stand-alone without the knowledge of what has gone before. For those who are following the story it offers a lot, including some titbits of background and some major developments. One of the aspects that I like best about this series is the simplicity of the magic system compared with the rich detail of the London setting. Aaronovitch demonstrates an endless knowledge of the capital and it's diverse cultural heritage which vastly increased the realism and depth of the story. Quite possibly his best yet, and one which only increases my desire to keep reading.

/ What is the benefit of magnesium orotate compared to other forms of magnesium? www.consumerlab.com/answers/what-is-the-benefit-of-magnesium-orotate-compared-to-other-forms-of-magnesium/magnesium-orotate/ What is the benefit of magnesium orotate compared to other forms of magnesium? Magnesium orotate is a complex of magnesium plus orotic acid. Some people use it for its magnesium content (to prevent or treat magnesium deficiency) while others take it for its orotic acid, which is used for improving athletic performance and endurance, and for heart health. As a magnesium supplement, it is often promoted as a better source of magnesium than other forms (e.g., magnesium oxide) due to improved absorption. Some websites claim that orotate carries magnesium across cell membranes and produces higher levels of magnesium within the cells. However, research does not show that minerals (such as magnesium or zinc) bound to orotic acid have improved absorption (Andermann, Eur J Drug Metab Pharmacokinet 1982). In fact, magnesium orotate probably isn't the best choice as a magnesium supplement for preventing or treating magnesium deficiency because it doesn't appear to offer an advantage over others and it can cost up to 9 times more than other magnesium products. To get, for example, 200 mg of magnesium from magnesium orotate supplements you might spend 10 to 18 cents. In contrast, you can get the same amount of magnesium for as little as 2 cents, as shown in ConsumerLab.com's Magnesium Supplements Review. Magnesium orotate might have a protective role in heart disease. A preliminary clinical study in people with heart failure found that giving 6,000 mg of magnesium orotate daily for one month, followed by 3,000 mg daily for 11 months reduced the risk of dying during the study by about 25%. It also improved heart failure symptoms in about 40% of patients (Stepura, Int J Cardiol 2009). Preliminary research in animals and humans suggests that this protective role of magnesium orotate may relate to its involvement in the synthesis of genetic material such as RNA and DNA (Rosenfeldt, Cardiovasc Drugs Ther 1998). Although magnesium orotate is often promoted and used to improve athletic performance or endurance, there is no reliable evidence that it works for this purpose. Some concerns about the safety of orotic acid from supplements such as magnesium orotate have been raised. Research in animals shows that doses of 100 mg/kg/day or more of orotic acid have tumor promoting effects in experimental tumors. Lower doses of 50 mg/kg/day did not have this effect (Laconi, Carcinogenesis 1993, Laconi, Carcinogenesis 1993, Laconi, Carcinogenesis 1988). Based on these data, a panel of the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) concluded that orotic acid-containing products, such as magnesium orotate, represent a safety concern when used in amounts of 100 mg/kg or more daily (e.g., 7,000 mg for a 70 kg [154 lb] adult) (EFSA Journal 2009). Magnesium orotate is not the best choice as a magnesium supplement and despite preliminary evidence of a benefit for people with heart disease, there is also evidence suggesting a potential safety concern at around the high dosage used for that purpose. Until more is known about the potential benefits and risks, it may be best not to use magnesium orotate. Are supplements with amino acid chelated minerals better than those with other forms of minerals? Learn more about chelates, including evidence from clinical studies on selenium, iron, and magnesium.

A tale of two airports: Heathrow and Schiphol It was a tale of two cities and their airports, when the cargo chiefs of Amsterdam-Schiphol and London Heathrow took to the stage in Abu Dhabi for the IATA World Cargo Symposium. The theme was "It takes a village", with Jonas van Stekelenburg, head of cargo at Schiphol, seated alongside Nick Platts, head of cargo at Heathrow, with David Ambridge, general manager, Bangkok Flight Services, as moderator. Schiphol is the third largest air cargo hub in Europe, based on 2016 volumes of 1.66m tonnes, with Heathrow a close fourth at 1.54m tonnes. As the two cargo bosses admitted, the airports operate two very different business models and have contrasting histories. Van Stekelenburg described how an early 20th Century Dutch government wanted a strategic airport close to the capital but built on the "cheapest" plot available, reclaimed land that even now provides Amsterdam with space to grow. Schiphol is today regarded as an innovative hub and the Dutch Air Cargo Netherlands community, described as a "benchmark" by Platts of Heathrow, is one aspect of a healthy tripartite government-airport authority-private sector engagement that encourages processes and procedures to promote volume growth. Heathrow, cramped and confined on a limited footprint originating in the mid-1940s, has only just won the chance to build a third runway after 50 years of government dithering. Its post-war 'horseshoe' design cargo centre is much maligned and the airport owners hold only the freehold for the land and so currently cannot pull the same investment levers to influence directly the cargo estate as their Dutch rivals. Ambridge, who worked at Heathrow in the past, said that the horseshoe "does not work", which elicited a wry observation from Platts, a straight-talking Australian: "I'm curious why the industry has not done something about it." Platts, who took on the Heathrow cargo role in May 2015 and so inherited a decades-long legacy of cargo inaction at the UK's number one hub, said of the Schiphol and Heathrow business models: "We operate in a different competitive market. The UK government does not favour one airport or seaport over another." Heathrow transitioned from state-ownership to private control in the 1980s and now its management has to sit down every five years with the regulator to decide what the airport can charge, what it can earn and what it can invest in passenger and cargo. Most UK industry pundits view Heathrow's cargo cluster as labouring under a "Cinderella complex," enjoying very little funding over the last 30 years. UK government departments regularly asked how air cargo works, Platts observed, and while they did not initially appreciate the value of the cargo component at Heathrow: "They do now." On stage, Platts went through a litany of Heathrow plus points: it handles 70% of UK air cargo, 30% of UK trade by value, 95% of the cargo is bellyhold, to and from 180 destinations worldwide. Platts surprised some in the audience when he confirmed that Heathrow does have freighter operations, with a prospect for more, as long as cargo airlines are realistic about the time slots they seek. He gave the example of a Boeing 747-8 freighter arriving in the afternoon and wanting a two hour turnaround. Heathrow has used up 98% of its 480,000 annual aircraft movements, "so don't ask me for a 7am slot," said Platts who added that there were freight slots available: "There is capacity and we need to work to unlock that. If you want to fly in twice a week, come and talk to me." He does not expect a mad rush to his office, primarily because Heathrow is in the "wrong spot geographically" for freighter operators, but his door is open. Van Stekelenburg observed from the sidelines that the UK airport and government had been "distracted" by the process for achieving third runway approval for Heathrow. Platts, answering criticism that the Horseshoe was congested with trucks and that the airport did not have a slot-booking system, pointed out that one such system had seen a poor take-up by the cargo community. He added however, that a new early-booking software was being tested which provides data and alerts so that ground handlers can prepare freight in advance of the vehicles arrival at the terminal. Platts also made the interesting point that e-commerce was fuelling the number of "white vans" at the airport's cargo area, asking "and who takes care of them?" Schiphol's cargo boss is clearly looking to grow his business and said that communication with the air cargo community was essential: "I want to attract business but I have to be open and transparent about what is possible. Communication and information are primary." Platts' first port of call on taking the Heathrow role was to visit Schiphol and to talk with Van Stekelenburg's predecessor and architect of the Amsterdam cargo revival, Enno Osinga. Platts said that Heathrow is currently where Schiphol was ten years ago, before Osinga began the process of engagement with all parties, including government, in the air cargo supply chain and beyond, including local universities and industry. Van Stekelenburg said that he was "flattered" by the comparison with Heathrow, but pointed out that the London airport enjoyed proximity to a very large city and a UK industrial base, quite different to the profile of Amsterdam and Schiphol: "We had to fight for cargo." He added: "The Netherlands does not have big industries, like certain German states. Yes, it is a model that works but we cannot relax and say this is going well and it will continue for ages. In a question and answer session, Platts was asked about the decision by industrial warehouse developer Segro to pay £365m to acquire 100% control of Airport Property Partnership (APP), whose assets include the majority of Heathrow Airport's airside cargo facilities. Segro bought the 50% interest in the APP joint venture that it did not already own from partner Aviva Investors. Platts said: "I think that the investment is good from an operational point of view, and that the decision-making process will be faster and easier, but I also think that it is a sign of confidence in the industry, that there is a future for air cargo at Heathrow." Describing Segro as a "strategic partner" Platts said the developer has brought in an operational team to look at how Heathrow can deal with growing volumes of cargo: "They recognise as well that things have to improve, and this has given us the opportunity to have a conversation about the impact of a third runway on the industry."

Flow may be expressed as a rate of volumetric flow, mass rate of flow, or in terms of a total volume or mass flow. directly through the interaction of the flowing fluid and the measuring device that is placed directly or indirectly in contact with the fluid stream. SFW paddle wheel sensor consists of a freely rotating wheel with magnets which is perpendicular to the flow. As the magnets in the blades spin past the Hall sensor, a frequency and voltage signal which is proportional to the flow rate is generated. SEKO's SFW range provides a low cost solution with high flow system accuracy, with no pressure drops making it ideal for gravity flows and offers a reduced dependence on flow, substances and film forming media. The SFW magmeter provides accurate data without moving parts for measurement of conductive and homogeneous dirty media. cooling tower, swimming pool, textile finishing.

Watch Gina Gershon Movies | Watch Gina Gershon TV Shows Gina Gershon Wiki Real Name: Gina L. Gershon Birth Place: Los Angeles, California, USA Occupation: Actress, Producer, Soundtrack Gina Gershon Biography Since making her unaccredited debut as a dancer in Beatlemania (1981) (1981), Gina Gershon has established herself as a character actress and one of the leading icons of American camp. For it was fourteen years after her movie debut that Gina made movie history as the predatory bisexual who was the leading light of a Las Vegas leg-line in director Paul Verhoeven's kitsch classic Showgirls (1995). Exploding out of a plaster-of-paris volcano clad in nothing but body makeup and a G-string, Gina Gershon obtained cinema immortality. After Showgirls (1995), she solidified her reputation playing a lesbian sexpot in the Wachovski Bros' neo-noir Bound (1996).Of French, Dutch and Russian-Jewish extraction, Gina Gershon was born in the Los Angeles suburb of Woodland Hills, the last in a brood of three kids. Raised in the San Fernando Valley, she got the acting bug early, appearing at the age of seven in a school production of Bye Bye Birdie (1963). Because of her acting ambitions, her parents moved to Beverly Hills so Gina could attend Beverly Hills High, where she indulged her acting jones by appearing in a student production of The Music Man (1962). Her first love, she says, is singing.After graduating from high school in 1980, she attended Emerson College in Boston, but took a part in the musical "Runaways". She transferred to New York University, where her official biography says she studied philosophy and psychology, but she graduated from the Tisch School of the Arts, taking a bachelor of Fine Arts degree in Drama in 1983. In New York City, while perfecting her craft, she co-founded the theater company, Naked Angels, with Helen Slater.Her big screen breakthrough came with a part in the 1986 "Brat Pack" teenage hit Pretty in Pink (1986). She also had parts in the Tom Cruise vehicle Cocktail (1988) and Arnold Schwarzenegger's Red Heat (1988). Of this period, she says, "One of my first gigs, a movie called Cocktail (1988), I found myself at 8 in the morning, in bed, practically naked, having to make out with Tom Cruise; hmmmm... movie business - so far, so good".Citing Frank Sinatra's song "My Way" as an inspiration, she says that following Cocktail (1988), "I was fortunate enough to play many diversified roles in film, television and stage. Not always to the liking of my managers and agents, but I always did what I wanted...." She played Nancy Sinatra, Frank's first wife, in the TV miniseries Sinatra (1992) (TV).Gina Gershon became a celebrity in Showgirls (1995). The following year, Gershon solidified her claim on second-tier stardom playing the calculating lesbian "Corky" in the crime movie Bound (1995). She never did capitalize on her mid-1990s breakthrough, but Gershon is established as a character actress and is never out of work, unlike most of her female peers who started out in the industry at the same time. Though no classic beauty, the talented thespian remains gainfully employed while many actresses of her vintage are out of work as she is possessed of a unique look and smoldering sex appeal that comes across on camera.Gershon is versatile, too, as at home on stage as she is in front of the camera. After appearing in off-Broadway and regional theater productions, she made her Broadway debut as a replacement in Sam Mendes' revival of Cabaret (1972) in January 2001. For six months, she played the key role of "Sally Bowles", returning that October to reprise the role for another month. In 2008, she once again appeared on Broadway in the revival of the farce "Boeing Boeing" on Broadway, which won the Tony Award for Best Revival.Gina Gershon also is a children's book writer. In 2008, Putmam Juvenile published her "Camp Creepy Time", a tale of a boy who discovers aliens at his summer camp, which she co-wrote with her brother, Dann Gershon. "Camp Creepy Time" recently was optioned by DreamWorks, which plans to turn it into a movie. In 2008, she also released a CD featuring nine songs which she wrote or co-wrote, "In Search Of Cleo".

Semiconductor demand sees Taiwan's exports to mainland hit record high The value of Taiwan's exports to mainland China and Hong Kong hit an all-time high of US$188.9 billion in 2021, thanks to the resilient demand for the island's computer chips, according to the latest data released by the island. Taiwan's finance ministry said the total was a 24.8 per cent increase from 2020. It included US$125.9 billion worth of exports to the mainland, marking a rise of 22.9 per cent from the previous year and almost double the 11.9 per cent growth rate seen in 2020. For December, figures show that Taiwan's exports of electronic components and audiovisual products to the mainland increased by 23.3 per cent and 19.9 per cent, respectively. "The mainland announced that they want to make their own chips, but they can't; their procurement of related goods from us has not decreased," an official with Taiwan's finance ministry told the Post, speaking on condition of anonymity and referring to mainland China's self-sufficiency efforts in chipmaking. Meanwhile, Taiwan's exports to Hong Kong rose 28.7 per cent to US$62.98 billion in 2021, compared with a 21.5 per cent growth rate in 2020. The official said that Washington's economic sanctions have led to a significant increase in mainland demand for Taiwan's chips, and that the strong demand is likely to continue until the mainland's chip technology is upgraded. He added that another major reason for the increased demand is that foreign-owned factories based on the mainland still need to purchase chips from Taiwan. "The impact of the pandemic has diminished," he said, "and the economy is booming compared with last year. Many new technologies are emerging, and these have led to the increased demand for chips from the mainland." In its statement, Taiwan's finance ministry also said the island has expanded its manufacturing capacity since last year, and robust exports are expected in the first quarter of 2022. Analysts with TrendForce said market demand in the global chip industry may have reached US$89.7 billion last year, and they estimate that Taiwan accounted for 64 per cent of that total. The US-based International Data Corporation predicts that demand for personal computers in China will continue to grow due to pandemic-induced work-from-home arrangements, and the research firm expects 60.01 million PC units to be sold in China this year. That would further drive up demand for chips on the mainland. Since Tsai Ing-wen of the Democratic Progressive Party became Taiwan's president in May 2016, cross-strait relations have remained strained. Given the impact of the pandemic on global supply chains, Taiwan has accelerated its investment diversification away from the mainland, while exports to the mainland have increased. China has long viewed Taiwan as a breakaway province and has vowed to take control of the island, by force if necessary. Taiwan's Ministry of Economic Affairs said the value of the island's investments in mainland China fell by 14.5 per cent, year on year, to US$4.79 billion in the first 11 months of 2021. On November 18, Taiwan opened a de facto embassy in Lithuania, prompting Beijing to immediately downgrade its diplomatic relations with Lithuania. And early last month, the US and Taiwan discussed cooperating on a new trade framework. 24htech German IT security watchdog: No evidence of censorship function in Xiaomi phones Beijer Ref acquires Croatian distributor

Glamuzina Paterson Architects have completed a modern residence in Mount Eden, Auckland, New Zealand. Entitled S House, the building separates the site into two gardens, not taking into account the conventional diagram of the front and back yard. Perfectly integrated in a green setting, the project offers good views from every room. According to the architects, "S House differs from the standard villa with a compact form and central circulation, with the elongated plan allowing for an extensive surface connection with the landscape. The activities of the house take place across a singular spine corridor which expands and contracts spatially as the house mediates the site, creating the contradictory east native garden and the west exotic sculpted garden. The complementary gardens are connected by the children's play area and bedrooms opening up to the two gardens". The interiors of this large home- especially built for a family of five– inspire both elegance and opulence. Have a look!

Black culture and resistance: the Harlem Renaissance One hundred years ago, an arts movement was forming in a mainly-black district of New York City. Later known as the Harlem Renaissance, it was primarily cultural but also inescapably political. Literature, poetry, jazz, theatre, sculpture and more articulated the lives and demands of African-Americans no longer willing to be grateful that they were no longer enslaved. O black and unknown bards of long ago. How came your lips to touch the sacred fire? How, in your darkness, did you come to know The power and beauty of the minstrel's lyre?

Review: First aid for the spirit CoronaVerses: poems from the pandemic (see here) is a rapidly pulled together collection in a rapidly changing world. Collected over the course of a week after Janine Booth set up a CoronaVerses Facebook group, it was collated and released in just over a fortnight. In a socially-distanced world this act of creating space for the looser, deeper observation poetry and other creative arts can make to our understanding of our present situation is important.

Simple, but potent Dan Rawnsley I continue to enjoy Janine Booth's poetry for its humanity. Her latest collection Fighting Tories: The Force Awakens (order online, £5, here) develops compelling political ideas out of personal experiences and observations.

An (electronic) consultative ballot will run from 4 June to 12 July or later. Disaggregated "real" ballots will follow at the end of 2019, in areas and schools where there has been sufficient response to the consultative ballot, and will conclude in January 2020.

Poet poisoned by Pinochet 15 Nov 2017 | John Cunningham Chilean poet Pablo Neruda may have been murdered by the Pinochet dictatorship. Recent autopsies suggest that the death of the Chilean poet Pablo Neruda in 1973 was possibly caused by poisoning. This should surprise no one even moderately acquainted with the dictatorship of General Pinochet. Neruda, arguably South America's greatest poet and a staunch champion of the oppressed, was admitted to hospital at the time of Pinochet's military coup which overthrew the left social-democratic government of Salvador Allende elected in 1971.

Ray Winstone records Wombles TV voice 13 August 2016 12 August 2016 by Tara Stockford A new behind-the-scenes video shows actor Ray Winstone recording the voice of Tobermory for the forthcoming Wombles TV series. Footage of him working in the studio with Mike Batt is interspersed with CGI clips from several episodes, building on some of the previews we saw earlier this year in The Return Of The Wombles. Not forgetting the obligatory song: "Who's the Womble with hammer and nails?

(Both brilliant) https://t.co/Fmex1rKpKe — Mike Batt (@Mike_Batt) May 28, 2016 The casting news made the national press in July, after Mike Batt mentioned it at the Children's Media Conference during a panel session about the increasing pace of children's television shows. "Bernard Cribbins is doing Great Uncle Bulgaria, and Ray Winstone is doing Tobermory," he said. "People keep asking if it's going to have that lovely parochial, cuddly quality that the Wombles are famous for. We have to bring it into the modern century, but do we have to speed it up, do we have to cut every second? Yes, we have to make it palatable to the modern audience, but we can do it other ways. You can hold the attention of the child with laughter, quality and music." Stuart Dredge reported on the event for The Guardian, and other sites were quick to pick up the story, leading to a stream of comments about how this contemporary version of Tobermory might intimidate people into cleaning up their litter.

Hockey teams know attendance is tied to performance. Photo by Brandon Wade /AP Is there a future for LeBreton Flats redevelopment without the involvement of mercurial Ottawa Senators owner Eugene Melnyk? Absolutely. In fact, it would be easier to get the job done with Melnyk out of the picture. Melnyk's LeBreton partner, veteran Ottawa developer John Ruddy, has a proven record of developing complex projects. He is a key force behind the tricky redevelopment of Lansdowne Park, for example. Melnyk, by comparison, has proven time and again that working co-operatively with others is not really his thing. All that Melnyk brings to the table is his ownership of the Senators. Denley: The sooner Melnyk is out of the deal, the better Back to video Ottawa Senators owner Eugene Melnyk. Photo by Tony Caldwell /Postmedia If you think a downtown arena is critical to the future of the Senators, that's a big deal, but not even Melnyk is arguing that any more. He has been musing for a year about whether the downtown rink is needed and his actions last week guarantee it's never going to happen. Not as long as he owns the team, anyway. People have adopted the idea that the Senators' attendance problems are related to the location of the rink, which is in far-flung Kanata, or the sticks, as some would call it. Funny thing, though. The team averaged more than 18,000 fans a year for 11 years, in Kanata. In the last three years, the quality of the team has declined and so has the attendance. Did they move Kanata, or are people unwilling to pay for a mediocre product with an unpopular owner? Just how many empty seats will there be at Senators home games this season? Photo by Julie Oliver /Postmedia Melnyk surely knows there is a connection between the product and attendance. He seems also to have realized that moving to a new arena would entail a huge financial commitment with no guarantee of a return, unless you think fans go to see the building, not the team. Or maybe Melnyk can't afford his share of the project or thinks it's not commercially viable, as his $700-million lawsuit says. The deal breaker, according to Melnyk's suit, is a three-tower condo development at 900 Albert Street, on the edge of LeBreton Flats. It would add 1,300 units at the junction of two transit lines. Melnyk argues that those 1,300 units will swamp the market and destroy the finances of the LeBreton plan, which calls for 4,400 more units over more than 20 years. John Ruddy, left, and Eugene Melnyk. Ruddy is a partner in the other condo complex and an expert in property development. If The Albert Street towers were going to kill Ruddy's own deal at LeBreton, why would he do it? Bagnall: Senators' lawsuit could be needed wakeup call for Ottawa, NCC LeBreton lawsuit: NCC must weigh options for the capital's 'jewel' The premise of Melnyk's suit might be weak, but he has leverage. He is part of the partnership approved by the National Capital Commission. If there is to be a change in that partnership, Melnyk has to agree to it. That puts Ruddy in the uncomfortable position of writing Melnyk a cheque to drop out, or walking away from the time and money already invested. If Melnyk can be bought out for a reasonable sum, expect Ruddy to approach the NCC with a Plan B that retains all the aspects of the approved plan, but pushes the hockey rink back several years, to that happy time when Melnyk no longer owns the Sens and a new owner wants to come downtown. The RendezVous LeBreton proposal for a new arena, which is partially seen here in architectural renderings. Photo by Wayne Cuddington /Postmedia Remember, redeveloping LeBreton Flats is not just about relocating a hockey rink. It's about creating a larger, livelier downtown core that is connected to the Ottawa River. We don't need the Senators and their 41 game nights to accomplish that. LeBreton without a rink won't satisfy everyone, but it's likely the best we will get. Government has no interest in putting anything there and the other group that wanted to develop LeBreton featured beer and car museums. The approved LeBreton plan, sans Melnyk, is far better than the nothing we have put up with for decades. The sooner Melnyk is out of the deal, the better. The hockey entrepreneur is in over his head – familiar waters for him – and he's certainly not the person we want to shape the future of our city.

LAWRENCEVILLE, Ga. - Texas Lutheran took control of the top of the SCAC Standings, improving to 13-1 in SCAC play as they took three out of four from Trinity. The Bulldogs dropped the opening game to snap their 10 game SCAC winning streak, but came back and won the next three games, giving up only three runs in the process. Centenary and Austin College split as well as Dallas and Schreiner to stay in the hunt for the postseason. Austin College went 2-2 against Centenary over the weekend, falling 7-2 in both halves of its doubleheader on Saturday before getting back to back shutout victories on Sunday, winning by scores of 9-0 and 5-0. Victoria Herrera was sensational on the mound all weekend, boasting a 1.21 earned-run-average and going 2-1 with a strikeouts to walk ratio of 22 to 3. On Sunday, Herrera tossed two complete game shutouts with nine strikeouts in game one and eight more in game two. Her first strikeout in game one on Sunday set a new Austin College single season strikeout record. Taylor Steelman was outstanding at the plate all weekend, batting .615 with six runs, two doubles, and an RBI, and Emily Low batted .385 with five RBI. Sophia Hernandez added a .357 average and Briana Hernandez drove in four runs on the weekend. Centenary went 2-4 this week, but registered back-to-back SCAC wins for the first time since Apr. 22, 2013 against Dallas. The Ladies finished their SCAC series at Austin College splitting the two twinbills. Centenary had three players hit .400-plus for the week. Whitney Patterson, Cadie Hancock and Mary Ann Allison each posted a .4112 batting average collecting seven hits apiece. Amber Smith batted .333 for the week while finishing second on the team in RBI with three. Lynsi Unruh stood as the pitcher of record in all six outings. The senior tossed 24.1 innings including two complete games. Unruh fanned 15, walked 15 and surrendered 34 hits during her time in the circle. Centenary returns to action on Friday, Apr. 4 as the Ladies host Trinity in a four-game series over the weekend. Dallas went 2-2 on the week, in conference games. On Saturday, in Kerrville, Texas, the Lady Crusaders fell 7-2 (F/7) to Schreiner, before achieving a 14-8 (F/7) win in game two. On Sunday, head coach Beth Krysiak's squad was defeated 9-0 (F/5) by the Lady Mountaineers in game three of the series, but persevered to a 10-7 (F/7) decision in the series finale. Dallas visits Richardson, Texas, for a 4 p.m. doubleheader on Tuesday versus the University of Texas-Dallas. The navy and white host Southwestern this weekend -- Saturday (1 p.m. 2x7) and Sunday (12 p.m. 2x7). Schreiner took on Conference foe, Dallas, on Saturday and Sunday. The Mountaineers split the weekend series (2-2), winning the first games of both double-headers. The two conference wins moves the Mountaineers up the standings from 4th place to 3rd place as the their push for the post-season continues. Pitcher Destiny Rodriguez went 2-1 on the weekend while continuing to lead the conference in strikeouts with 17 on the weekend (62 overall). She was supported offensively by Stormie Lutz, who recorded 8 RBI's and defensively by Sr. Holly Molenaar who had 17 put-outs over the weekend. Mountaineers will have their last home stand as they face conference rival Texas Lutheran on Friday at 5pm. Southwestern had a off weekend from SCAC conference play and faced only Concordia in a non-conference double-header on Tuesday. A couple of seventh-inning comebacks gave Southwestern a split, winning 3-2 before falling 7-6. now 9-14-1 on the year and 5-5 in the SCAC, Southwestern kicks off a four game series on Saturday against the University of Dallas beginning on Saturday at 1 pm. Texas Lutheran won four out of its six games this week, splitting a non-conference doubleheader against Pacific Lutheran before taking three out of four in a crucial home SCAC series against Trinity. Jennifer Gallagher was the hero against Pacific Lutheran, cranking a three-run walk-off home run to lift the Bulldogs to a come-from-behind 5-4 win in the second game of the doubleheader. The pitching staff was tremendous in the series against second-place Trinity, giving up just three earned runs in the four games for an ERA of just 0.72. The three wins helped open up a three-game lead in the loss column as the Bulldogs try to fend off Trinity for the SCAC regular-season title and the right to host the SCAC Championship. Trinity went 2-6 over the past week, splitting with Linfield to start things off, but then going just 1-5 over the remaining games. The Tigers were swept by nationally-ranked Pacific Lutheran on Wednesday, then lost three of four games over the weekend in the SCAC series against Texas Lutheran. This week, Trinity will be back on the road for six more games, facing off against the University of Mary Hardin-Baylor and Centenary College. The Tigers will finally play a doubleheader that was rescheduled from February 25 against UMHB, then will head to Shreveport, Louisiana, for a four-game SCAC series against the Ladies.

Gene Scheer > Works > Stage Works > Everest Everest (2015) Libretto by Gene Scheer & Music by Joby Talbot Mount Everest is the world's highest mountain and one of the most dangerous, having claimed more than 200 lives over the past century. Until last year's fatal avalanche, the deadliest year in recorded history was 1996: 15 people died, eight of them in a single blizzard. That disaster has been chronicled in at least five books, two documentaries — and now, an opera premiering in Dallas, Texas, simply called Everest.NPR Scott Freeman and Jim Farmer, ARTS ATL Atlanta Opera General and Artistic Director Tomer Zvulun said that dealing with the emotional intensity of the piece has been challenging and rewarding. "You see how powerful it is, how poignant."Kevin C. Madigan, Atlanta Jewish Times There are a myriad of reasons why an operatic adaptation of Jon Krakauer's Into Thin Air should not work. And yet it does. Composer Talbot and librettist Gene Scheer have crafted a compelling 70-minute opera adapted from Krakauer's nonfiction account of the disastrous 1996 Everest season in which eight people died.Lawrence A. Johnson, Chicago Classical Review. . . . Everest keeps melodramatic impulses at bay and controlled psychological tension ultimately saturates the scenario.Katherine Syer, bachtrack.com This piece is perfect for its time - it is completely relevant to the world that we live in today and applies to many things. Heggie, Zvulun, and Scheer make a perfect combo with an all star cast and crew and present a work prudent for today.Daniel Weisman, Schmopera 'Everest," a remarkable first opera by the British composer Joby Talbot, which had its world premiere at the Dallas Opera on Friday, forges art from a contemporary tragedy. Based on the true story of three climbers trapped on Mount Everest in a blizzard in May 1996 (the expedition that was chronicled by Jon Krakauer in "Into Thin Air"), this 70-minute juggernaut makes you feel disturbingly in the moment, living—and dying—along with the characters. Gene Scheer's taut, streamlined libretto, drawn from interviews with survivors, focuses on two situations: Rob Hall (the expedition leader) and Doug Hansen push on to the summit even though Doug is unwell, and Beck Weathers stays behind and gets lost. The fragmentation of the narrative builds suspense, and the stories are welded together by a chorus that echoes and questions the climbers.The Wall Street Journal ← Camille Claudel: Into the Fire Cold Mountain →

June 14, 2016 / 4:40 PM / 3 years ago Hackers sought to steal over $3 billion through wire-transfer fraud: FBI NEW YORK (Reuters) - Hackers have sought to steal more than $3 billion from businesses in a pernicious, fast-growing type of scam in which criminals impersonate company executives in emails ordering large wire transfers, the Federal Bureau of Investigation warned on Tuesday. The FBI disclosed the data as it launched a public awareness campaign providing tips on how to defend against such scams. The cases, which are widely known as business email compromise, target businesses and not consumers. U.S. and foreign victims reported 22,143 cases involving business email compromise cases in which cyber criminals sent requests for some $3.1 billion in fraudulent transfers from October 2013 through last month, according to the FBI. That represents a significant increase from the agency's previous tally, which put attempted losses at $2.3 billion through February of this year. Supervisory Special Agent Mitchell Thompson said victims should notify the FBI immediately if they find they have been victimized in such scams, so the bureau can work with agents overseas to ask foreign banks to freeze the funds before fraudsters pull them out of the banking system. "The sooner somebody reports this to the FBI, the better the possibility they can get their money back," he said at a news conference in New York. The bulk of the cases involved requests to transfer funds to banks in Hong Kong and China, though a total of 79 countries have been identified to date, according to the bureau. Thompson said he could not say how much money victims actually lost through the schemes, but said about one in four U.S. victims respond by wiring money to fraudsters. The FBI said the sharp jump in cases since its last tally was due to the high level of recent activity, as well as an effort by law enforcement agencies around the world to identify such scams as business email compromise, rather than generic wire fraud. The FBI said it has seen a 1,300 percent increase in identified exposed losses since January 2015. The size of the losses vary widely from case to case, from about $10,000 to tens of millions of dollars, according to Thompson. Austrian aircraft parts FACC said in January that it lost about 50 million euros ($55 million) through such a scam. Reporting by Jim Finkle in New York; Editing by Dan Grebler

The Classic Chinese Text - Brand New Complete Edition - Tao te Ching of Lao Tzu - The Tao Te Ching, along with the Zhuangzi, is a fundamental text for both philosophical and religious Taoism, and strongly influenced other schools, such as Legalism, Confucianism, and Chinese Buddhism, which when first introduced into China was largely interpreted through the use of Daoist words and concepts. Many Chinese artists, including poets, painters, calligraphers, and even gardeners, have used the Daodejing as a source of inspiration. Its influence has also spread widely outside East Asia, and is among the most translated works in world literature. The Wade-Giles romanization "Tao Te Ching" dates back to early English transliterations in the late 19th century; its influence can be seen in words and phrases that have become well established in English. "Daodejing" is the pinyin romanization.

Veterinary Negligence: Ethical and Legal Perspectives on Formulating a Duty of Care Posted on October 1, 2014 by ReValuing Care by Samantha Schnobel Describing a veterinarian's professional duty, Bernard Rollin dichotomised the role placing at one end a garage mechanic and and at the other, a paediatrician. Simplistic in design, this analogy gives us pause to consider the ethical and legal duties of care stemming from the triangular relationship created between animal, veterinarian, and owner. Within this triangular relationship, deeply meaningful, bi-directional relationships can occur between animal and owner. An integral part of the veterinarian's role, therefore, is not simply about animal health (though this is certainly a primary concern), it is also about preserving and fostering the animal-owner bond. In a very important way, then, veterinarians are the final arbiters not only of animal health, but also the caring relationship shared between owner and animal. Expanding briefly on caring relationships within the triangular relationship just discussed there will almost always be a relationship of care between owner and animal. In the first place, the owner, by the act of bringing the animal to the veterinarian in the first place, is exhibiting caring behaviour. Beyond this, the animal is almost wholly dependent on its owner for the basics of life (ie. food, water, shelter, etc.) and the fostering of basic capabilities, which animals experience (ie. emotion, imagination, etc.). Also, by virtue of the veterinarian's aesculapian position, caring relationships can also be said to exist between owner and veterinarian and veterinarian and animal. Having said that, complications can arise where, for example, the veterinarian is engaged in alleviating the suffering of the animal only to obtain payment of fees. The existence of this incongruous model of veterinary care is arguably what led Rollin to describe a veterinarian either in terms of a paediatrician or a mechanic. Unfortunately, as the below will discuss, the law has played a significant role in forwarding a framework which restricts the development of a more care-based model and rather supports an instrumental view of the veterinarian's role. The position I take throughout this discussion is that the law should seek to promote a construction of the veterinarian's duty which supports a much stronger, relational approach. Currently, then, from a legal perspective, the Cartesian example analogised by the garage mechanic is most accurate. Here, the duty of care is owed solely to the owner and the veterinarian is charged with repairing a mere, commodified "thing." In essence, the law treats the animal patient no differently than a car, or a table, or any other piece of property. No weight is placed on the relationship shared between animal and owner or the animal's individual sentience. Instead, the focus is placed on the commercial relationship between veterinarian and owner. Thus, if the treatment is negligently completed, monetary damages can be awarded which would allow the claimant-owner to buy a brand new "thing" of equal value. Because many animals lack a sufficiently high market value to make a professional negligence claim viable, very little attention has been paid to the legal duties of care owed by veterinarians [1]. If, however, courts could be persuaded to make the evolutionary step and acknowledge that an accurate characterisation of the legal relationship between owner and animal is not to be found in the base conception of owner and disposable/replaceable property, but rather more accurately as something far more complex and meaningful, veterinarians could face a considerably higher level of professional scrutiny, particularly at the duty of care stage. In light of several recent stories involving potentially criminal and negligent conduct in the execution of veterinary services, discussion of legal duties of care becomes increasingly important [2]. Current veterinary negligence case law⎯ of which there is admittedly very little in comparison to other analogous professions⎯ disregards an in-depth duty of care assessment, focusing instead on the economic loss sustained by the owner and the breach of duty analysis, which relies heavily on specific factual analyses. The duty aspect is largely forgotten, finding simply that a duty to act reasonably in the given circumstance existed. Such an approach is consistent with an economic theory of negligence which focuses on liability costs, an entrepreneurial economy based on freedom of action, and efficient settlements. What this theory leaves out, however, is the relational aspect both between owner and veterinarian, but also owner and animal, and owner-claimant and judge. According to West and Oliphant, it is adherence to the pursuit of legal certainty and economic efficiency which leads not only to injustice and incoherence, but also a time-frozen, rigid body of jurisprudence, out of touch with prevailing social standards. West's work in particular focuses strongly on the often-neglected role of feminist and caring theory in tort law and advocates a strongly relational approach not only for judging cases, but importantly in understanding the relationship between all concerned parties. Lastly, by neglecting the duty of care assessment we lose out on discussion related to how a veterinarian ought to act, as opposed to simply how one did act; thus, much of the normative force behind negligence jurisprudence is lost. To be preferred is an in-depth analysis at the duty of care stage which focuses on the relationship between the owner and the veterinarian. According to Goldberg and Zipursky and McBride, the duty of care analysis is inherently relational with more onerous and affirmative duties (i.e. the duty to protect against emotional harm and the duty to rescue) attributed to those instances where a strong, pre-tort relationship exists [3]. Importantly for veterinarians, this type of analysis more effectively guides human contact, better preserves respect for the law and better integrates law into a variety of professional settings (Goldberg & Zipursky, 1998). Further, adopting the relational perspective for duty causes individuals to focus on particular aspects of others' well-being and to develop an 'internalised normative pull towards certain sets of actions' (Goldberg & Zipursky, 1998: p.1831). It is this type of discourse which is sorely missing in veterinary negligence case law and literature. Building from the above, I would argue that similar to human medicine, veterinarians owe many duties of care stemming from positive acts and omissions. More specifically, duties could stem from treatment and diagnosis, disclosure of risk and duties to warn. Where there is a strong pre-tort relationship, there may be duties to rescue and duties to protect against the infliction of emotional harm. When this is combined with concerns with for the animal patient, difficult situations arise for which veterinarians have either very little guidance [4], or inaccurate guidance. In order to effect meaningful change in this area and provide veterinarians with a more clear sense of their legal duties, I would argue, following Oliphant and West, that the mechanical application of rules and insistence on institutional consistency⎯ especially those relating to a law and economics perspective⎯ should be rejected. In its place, the judiciary should adopt a duty of care analysis based on the identification of relevant factors derived from a holistic, compassionate assessment of individual cases, paying particular attention to the nature of the relationships between veterinarian, owner, and animal. It is only through this type of high-level analysis based on underlying values and fundamental principles relating to our duties to others that conduct can be shaped and the interests of all parties can be given more meaningful consideration. To what extent the ethic of care could inform development in this area is thus a legitimate and thought-provoking question warranting greater attention. Samantha Schnobel, Birmingham Law School [email protected] Samantha is a doctoral candidate and teaching assistant at the University of Birmingham. Her primary research interests lie in the fields of professional negligence and ethics, specifically in the areas of human and nonhuman medicine. Her doctoral research focuses on the legal and ethical considerations pertaining to the duty of care in human and non-human health-related negligence claims. Additional research interests lie in animal welfare and property theory, in particular sentient property and the interaction between property and personhood found in the work of Margaret Radin http://www.birmingham.ac.uk/schools/law/staff/profile.aspx?ReferenceId=46994 [1] In a negligence claim, it must be established that the defendant owed the claimant a duty of care. This is in addition to damage (ie. property or personal injury), fault, and causation. Essentially, the duty of care question asks whether the defendant owed the claimant a duty to take reasonable care to avoid or protect her from the type of harm suffered.

It's the Bush dressup game! Panda Golf 2, Advanced. Meaning that there is a Panda Golf 1, basic? A game with a hidden Publis Service Announcement hidden inside. Guess who's got the biggest pair. Hold down your left mouse-button and release it to shoot at the cats with the goal of knocking them into the doorways. Be careful, because if you miss it's splattered kitty all over the place and everyone knows what a pain it is to clean that stuff up. The Dutch embassy has been taken over by terrorists. As a sniper, it's your job to clear the building of all the bad-guys. You have to be quick because they move fast. Another great shoot-em-up game, this time in 3D. Use your space-bar to reload and KILL KILL KILL! This is the best kind of game, in my opinion. Just see how many people you can shoot before the time runs out. Different weapons to choose from too! The more you eat, the longer your snake grows. Make sure you don't eat yourself and try to clear out all the cookies! THE BEST GAME IN THE UNIVERSE. Found out he owed this year.

I have this affinity with old stuff. Antique stores, old houses, old cars, old recipes. I use to go to those storage auctions and bid on storage units just so I could go through people's old stuff. Honestly I just love walking through antique stores and looking at everything inside. I think I was born in the wrong year. I always wish I lived during the 50s. Maybe I have watched one too many episodes of I Love Lucy, but it just looked so much more real. All the women got dressed up to go to a show, people would sit around and listen to the radio and play board games and have actual conversation instead of watching tv all day long and scrolling through Instagram. It seemed like simpler times and honestly just so much more happy. For some reason when I look at antiques I get excited thinking about the person that was once super excited to be using whatever it is I'm looking at. Like the old desk that was once brand new. Whoever had it was probably so excited to bring it home and walk by it and admire it. Do you do that? I love getting new art in my home or new furniture. We have this piece of art in our house of a bird flying over LA. I absolutely love it and I always walk by it and say "gosh I love that picture" and the kids always laugh. Now it's a joke every time we walk by it. It just makes me happy. This house that I bought is pretty happy. Well it's actually a little cold and desolate and creepy right now, but you know what I mean. Overall it makes me feel good. I can see the charm through the dirt and I want to make it sparkle again. There are three bathrooms in this house. One powder room downstairs and two bathrooms upstairs. This bathroom is for the second bedroom and Lily and Olive are obsessed with the pink tile. Unfortunately the color doesn't really jive with what I have planned so I can't keep it. It's also cracked everywhere and ummm slightly dated ...... The house was built in 1927 and this bath was added sometime in the 50s/60s. The bathroom is fairly large, but it's not actually connected to the bedroom so I need to wall in the existing door and create a door into the bedroom so it's not just floating around in the hallway. I am also going to borrow part of this bathroom for the master closet. The bathroom is big and the master closet is like the size of this shower door so that ain't working for anyone. I have never met a girl that only has 4 pairs of shoes so Mama needs to make the closet a real closet. Sorry pink bathroom, but we gotta split you up! Scroll down to see the before pics and what my plans are and let me know what you think! This was the first picture I ever took in the house. It's my favorite room and well, I really, really like taking showers. This oversized mirror is a really deep medicine cabinet and underneath this counter is actually a pedestal sink which I would love to reuse downstairs in the powder bathroom, but I'm not sure if I can salvage it without damaging the edges. The cabinets were just built around it and there is no bottom to this cabinet so if you look underneath it, everything is just sitting on the floor. Weird. The window will be staying here and I love these old thermador grates, but is that weird to leave them?? I just love the look of them even if they don't function! Thoughts? I think they are so cool looking! They add so much character and I feel like they are true to the house. Do you think it's weird to leave them though? I actually really love the mirrors and think I can reuse them in a more modern way so I am going to be saving them. They will no longer be medicine cabinets but I'm going to take off the wood and add brass to the sides. I am also saving the soap dish and I plan to incorporate it back as a throw back to what was originally here. This is the existing floor plan and as you can see the bathroom backs up to a pretty large attic. The master closet is what you see in yellow and it's awful. Did I tell you how awful it is? Yeah just wait till I post those pics. I will be taking part of the second bath to widen the closet. I will also be taking the linen closet in the hallway and using part of the attic area behind it which is currently labeled as "closet". Alrighty, so this is my inspiration for the room. I want to incorporate green penny rounds on the walls and ceiling. It's a take on what is originally here but it will be more modern. I am going to use moss green penny rounds and gray grout. The floor will actually be white marbles it's clean and it doesn't fight with the tile. This picture is simply for the penny rounds. Classy, sleek, modern, yet perfect for this 91 year old house. Go with a wood vanity that's clean and simple. The white marble will match the floor and I will have a brass faucet and a dark framed mirror. I love the idea of doing a simple wood vanity with no hardware because I don't like seeing a bunch of hardware. I think people can get carried away sometimes with too much brass and this keeps it minimal. Thoughts on which direction I should go? Please let me know your thoughts and what you think!

Allison Eby and Brett Varley dazzle in novice pair; Joseph Phan jumps into lead in novice men's competition January 14, 2014 /by Skate Canada OTTAWA: Coach Kevin Wheeler had an inkling that Allison Eby and Brett Varley would be an entertainment twosome, given that they had always shown a little bit of moxie in his club in Cambridge, Ont. He matched the two together, not because he thought they'd have booming throws or endless lifts or soaring twists. He just thought, as a team, they'd have a lot of energy and appeal. And so they have. Skating to "Black Bottom Stomp," Eby, 11, of Ayr, Ont., and Varley, 19, of Thedford, Ont., won the novice pair short program at the Canadian Tire National Skating championships. They had enough technical tricks too to muster the win: a double twist, a throw double toe loop, double loop jumps, and a step sequence and a combination spin that both got level four for difficulty. They will take 40.25 points with them into the free skate, and this, even though this is their first season together. "Both had to learn the pairs moves right from the start," Wheeler said. They had been singles skaters. Varley had done some ice dancing. "We didn't know what to expect ," he said. "They had to learn the basics. But they get along really well." Keelee Gingrich and Davin Portz of Alberta are in second place with 38.62 points, and Naomie Boudreau and Cedric Savard are third with 38.17. Wheeler, a former senior national competitor in his day, has here novice and one junior pair in his stable, but was disappointed when his novice stars Renata Wong and Henry Su withdrew from the event. "We had big expectations for them this year," he said. "They've been skating really well." However, the day of the long program at the Challenge competition, Wong suffered a knee injury while practicing a twist on the floor. She fell awkwardly and the injury has taken a long time to heal. Wheeler had witnessed the accident. "They were very disappointed they weren't here," he said. Su is 19, Wong 14, and they are in their second year of pairs – his veterans on the team – and they had been working on triple throws. "We wanted to show them off," he said. They will have one more chance to do this, at the Ontario Winter Games in March. Even though the number of pair skaters is small at these championships – there were 10 pairs and 12 had been entered and the novice level – Wheeler is encouraged by what he has seen at pair practices at the novice and junior level. "They were very exciting," he said. "They are training some extremely difficult tricks. He's seen junior pair skaters attempting two triple throws and moves with a lot of quality. "They will fit well into senior," he said. "I see it being very exciting for the future. I'm looking forward to seeing this. And it's not as if they are landing the odd one. They are landing them solidly." At this stage, there are a lot of talented pairs in Canada that are currently eligible for the world junior championships later this season. In the novice men's short program, Joseph Phan of Montreal delighted the little crowd with his victory, by showing off his easy flow across the ice and a deft set of tricks, including a triple Salchow – double toe loop and a triple toe loop. He is only 12 years old, and coached by Yvan Desjardins. Phan is on top with 42.40 points, ahead of Josh Allen, 15, of Ottawa, with 37.11. Zachary Daleman, 13, of Newmarket, Ont., is in third place only two hundredths of a point behind (37.09.) He had an impressive cheering section: his sister, Gabby, who just made the Olympic team in the women's event, watched her brother compete.

1) Sprinkle around some lemon juice (or white vinegar). Add one part juice to two parts of water, then spray this concoction around the ants's home, around window and door frames. 2) Peppermint essential oil: Add a few drops (5-10) to two tablespoons of coconut oil. Apply this on their home's entrance. 3) Smoke: This one is a little tricky. Burn incense sticks very close to the ant home and its entrance. 4) Electric cig: Ants are not a big fan to nicotine, so if you're smoking, you can get rid of ants by smoking your cig close to their homes. 5) Chalk (not crayons!): Just take a chalk - any colour would do it - and just draw a line around the ants's home and where ever you can see them coming into your house. They will not cross a line drawn by chalk! If you can get chalk-powder, that's the same result, but chalks are easier to get. 6) Mix powdered sugar with baking soda, and place this mix nearby their paths.

He was my first baby born while I was writing this blog. I found out just a few short weeks after I started blogging that he was on his way into our family. Today, he turns three. Lincoln - my third baby boy. It has been such a joy sharing his life on here - announcing his birth to friends and family, sharing my struggle as we prayed for him to grow, and chronicling his life through pictures and stories. It's amazing to look back - through the pictures on this blog - and see how he has changed and grown and relive moments of his life. I spent some time today looking through his photos - the ones I've shared here. My sweet little boy has grown up right before my eyes, and yet, I don't see him as more than a baby. And, since so many of you have been here for much of his life, I thought I'd share what I saw today. Here's a look at how he's changed over the last three years. And, today. His first day as "a three". All he wants is a "bawoon" cake. We promised him one when Grandma and Grandpa come to visit and we have his party. Happy Birthday - to one of the sweetest children I have ever known. Oh so grown up already. I love that little boy and wish I could be close enough to watch him grow up even more. Thank you for letting me love on him and kiss his cheeks and more. I will treasure those memories forever. happy birthday to your THREE year old little man! He is truly one of the sweetest little men I have ever met. Happy birthday, sweet Lincoln. We love you. Just showed the post to Dave. We had fun looking back at your little boy. When I got the last photo Dave said, "Wow". I think our little baby boy has grown up. Happy Birthday to sweet Lincoln! I remember following your pregnancy on the blog and I remember when he was born. I also remember the evening we got to spend with him. He's a precious gift! I can't believe he is three already. What a precious boy! Happy birthday, Lincoln! He is someday going to knock some girls socks off, eh! He is so adorable. I don't know your family but I feel as if I do just watching your blog. Thank you for sharing. Awwwwww... I am one of those that started reading right before he was born. And I've loved every single photo since - he's a pantry snack snatcher after my own heart. haha. Happy Birthday to your super sweet boy! Awww....Happy Birthday, sweet, sweet boy!!! I think he starts to look like "himself" at around 3 mo. It's the eyes. Seriously, he's THREE already?!? What sweet, sweet photos! You must be so glad that you are recording these precious days. Don't blink. I remember the days reading your blog while you were expecting him. What a cutie! I hope you had fun celebrating him!

Fu padre del feldmaresciallo imperiale Hermann Carl von Ogilvy nonché trisavolo materno del generale austroungarico e governatore del Veneto conte Alajos Pálffy de Erdőd. Biografia La famiglia Ogilvy era figlio del barone George Jacob Ogilvy, comandante della Fortezza dello Spielberg presso Brno, il quale era a sua volta discendente da James Ogilvy, V lord Ogilvy di Airlie, del clan scozzese degli Ogilvy dei futuri conti di Airlie. Questo lo rende imparentato anche con Angus Ogilvy, marito di Alexandra, onorevole Lady Ogilvy, cugina di primo grado della regina Elisabetta II del Regno Unito. La carriera militare Al servizio del Sacro Romano Impero Nel 1664, appena tredicenne, entrò nel reggimento di picchieri al servizio del generale Leslie, raggiungendo il grado di capitano. Nel 1677 venne promosso al rango di colonnello del reggimento del principe Ludovico di Baden col quale prese parte all'assedio di Buda e nel 1689 venne nominato comandante della fortezza di Belgrado. Nel 1691 ricevette un proprio reggimento dall'imperatore Leopoldo I del Sacro Romano Impero e l'anno successivo divenne ciambellano imperiale. Nel 1696, generale di campo, divenne comandante della cittadella militare di Tokaj. Nel 1702 venne inviato a combattere sul Reno dove prese parte all'assedio di Landau, nel Palatinato, sotto il diretto comando dell'imperatore Giuseppe I del Sacro Romano Impero. Nel 1703, venne nominato feldmaresciallo. Al servizio dell'Impero russo Durante la sua visita a Vienna nel 1698, lo zar Pietro il Grande venne a conoscenza del valore militare di Ogilvy e pertanto lo chiamò in Russia. Con il permesso dell'imperatore, Ogilvy rispose a questa chiamata e succedette al defunto generale François Lefort come generale maresciallo di campo imperiale russo e comandante generale di tutte le truppe russe. In questa veste venne impiegato nella Grande Guerra del Nord. Nel 1704 comandò il campo durante l'assedio di Narva e fu in grado di conquistare la città il 9 agosto. Il 16 dello stesso mese conquistò il castello di Ivanogrod, motivo per cui anche il re Augusto II di Polonia gli concesse l'Ordine dell'Aquila Bianca, la massima onorificenza di stato. Al servizio della Polonia Dopo il suo servizio in Russia, il re polacco ed elettore di Sassonia, Augusto II di Polonia, lo nominò generale feldmaresciallo delle proprie armate, suo consigliere segreto e presidente del suo consiglio di guerra. Augusto II gli assegnò anche un reggimento di fanteria ed uno di cavalleria assieme a molti altri privilegi personali. Nel 1708 acquisì i domini di Zahorzan e Taschau in Boemia. Poco dopo, costretto nuovamente a trasferirsi in Polonia al seguito dell'esercito sassone per assediare Danzica, morì presso quella città il 10 ottobre (secondo altre fonti l'8 ottobre) del 1710. Matrimonio e figli Sposò la contessa Maria Anastasia von Zuckmantel zu Brumath († 4 giugno 1695). L'unico figlio della coppia, Hermann Carl von Ogilvy, divenne suo erede universale e come il padre proseguì la propria carriera militare al servizio del Sacro Romano Impero.

Q: What satellite imagery would help to show spring locations? I've got lots of tiny streams on a hydrography shapefile. Historic texts indicate that certain ones have headwaters at "sources" or springs, and I want to try to find these. Browsing the historical imagery on Google Earth was my first attempt, but the ground cover and tree canopies are too dense to properly identify a pool. What kinds of satellite imagery types would help to identify such features? A: As someone who did feature capture from imagery for a while, I would caution you against expecting a pool at a spring. The majority of the ones I've encountered (both in capture and on the ground in person) don't have one. We often referred to ancillary sources to suggest/confirm a spring. Depending on your purposes, USGS quad sheets or hydrography datasets may prove useful. As for imagery, time of year would be key. Imagery taken during spring or fall would be best - minimal snow and canopy/vegetation cover makes for better visibility. For this reason the US Ag Program (NAIP) imagery wouldn't be ideal, since their purpose is showing peak crop growth. Google takes their imagery from a variety of sources and it's rather hit or miss on time of year. I know some local county governments time their acquisitions to minimize canopy cover. Depending on your area of interest location, some times of the year may be better than others for spring activity/flow. A: If you have tiny streams then you will want to have satellite imagery with better resolution than Landsat (30 meter pixels). However, Landsat has the best historical coverage. I would do a combination of imagery and elevation (DEM) data. Using a DEM to make a hillshade, or some hydro analysis (flow direction) will provide you a great combination of options to identify tiny streams and potential head waters that are much smaller than a 30 meter pixel. Otherwise you will be looking to get IKONOS or QuickBird four band imagery, which can get very expensive. A: I have spent many years surveying rivers in the UK and have visited the sources of many streams. My experience in the UK a spring is rarely a pool of standing water but are "flushes", basically water seeping out of the ground. Springs could be swampy areas or heathland dominated typically with Juncus. But we do have the classic water bubbling out of the ground pools for sources (Eg. R. Itchen). Such a feature as identified by the others is too small to capture or obscured by vegetation. You don't say where in the world you are working? If it was in the UK our national mapping agency supplies those annotations as part of MasterMap. You could convert those to a point and snap them to the nearest end point of a stream network, that would be a good first pass filter? Also when you say spring are you talking about water seeping out of the ground or an Aquifer creating a pool? A: Landsat imagery would be helpful. Different bands can be utilized separately or together depending on your needs, in your case delineating water and land boundaries would be near infared. If the streams are as tiny as stated, they may not appear due to the resolution or lack thereof.

Think you know everything about water coolers? It's time to find out! Water coolers are among the best ways to enjoy always-fresh drinking water at your preferred temperature. But there's a lot more to water coolers than meets the eye. While most people are aware of the health benefits associated with water coolers, the amount of money you'll save by owning one, and the tremendous environmental benefits, there are other things you might be surprised to learn. Here's our list of seven things you didn't know about water coolers. Not all water coolers use those heavy jugs of bottled water. When most people think about "water cooler talk," they picture a group of people around a gurgling bottle of water perched atop a podium in an office hallway. And when the bottle's empty? Someone – hopefully with decent upper-body strength – needs to step up and replace it. While that certainly beats the money spent on bottled water and is lightyears better than tap water, it's admittedly not always the most convenient situation for some people. Fortunately, there are plenty of point-of-use water dispensers that can hook up directly to a water line. This means no more replacement bottles, no more heavy lifting, and plenty of fresh, clean drinking water to enjoy while you discuss your favorite Netflix shows with your coworkers during your break. Bottle-less water coolers are great for at home too, especially when you don't have a ton of space to keep extra bottles around. It's the ultimate convenience when it comes to fresh drinking water at an always-perfect temperature. You're not limited to cold and room-temperature. Although there are water coolers available that only dispense water chilled or at room temperature, models are available that can dispense hot water too. Hot and cold water dispensers are great for people who prefer tea, cocoa, or even just enjoy drinking their water hot. In fact, hot water dispensers are so versatile that you can actually use them to make soup and cup noodles. It's an incredibly practical feature, and most people wonder how they ever did without it once they have it. If you have children, you may be worried about safety with a hot water dispenser. Fortunately, hot water dispensers tend to have safety features that prevent against accidental use of the hot water spigot. Most manufacturers make safety features like this a priority, but you want to take care to check the model you're buying before you make a purchase. There are portable water dispensers that are perfect for barbecues, camping, or the countertop. Some people are surprised to learn that portable countertop water dispensers are a thing, but they are, and they're absolutely wonderful for so many reasons. Maybe you don't have enough space for a full-size water dispenser, or perhaps you want something you can bring with you and use during an outdoor event like a summer party or a camping trip. Regardless of your needs, portable water dispensers make it super easy to enjoy fresh drinking water anywhere you are. Select models have a built-in nightlight. Did you know that some water dispenser models have a built in nightlight? One example is the Primo 601118 bottom-loading water dispenser. If you wake up in the middle of the night thirsty, you don't have to turn on every light in the house just to get a drink. Just follow the glow of your water dispenser, fill your cup, enjoy it, and then get back to sleep. It's as simple as that. Maintaining a water cooler is very, very easy. Clean your water cooler once a month, keep it plugged in at all times, and keep it filled with clean water if it's a top- or bottom-loading unit that uses water bottles. That's it. In fact, water cooler cleaning and maintenance only takes a few minutes. That said, you'll still want to wipe down the unit regularly to keep it looking clean. Don't forget to check for leaks and wipe the wire grid on the back of the unit with a soft cloth to remove lint and dust (a vacuum works for this, as well). If it's ever completely empty, you'll want to unplug the unit – especially if it's a hot and cold water dispenser. Leaving it plugged in while empty could actually damage the unit, something you want to avoid. Refillable water jugs are an option, and they even filter the water for you. For some people, connecting a water line to a water cooler just isn't an option, and buying new bottles of water can be an inconvenience. That's completely understandable, and if this sounds like you, you'll be happy to hear that there are actually refillable water bottles available that will filter the water for you. The NewAir WAT10 Pure Spring Water Filtration Bottle is just one example, capable of filtering up to 211 gallons of water before you need to replace the filter.

Carrie Underwood revealed some tragic news this weekend about her fertility issues over the past couple years — during which she suffered three miscarriages. The country music star shared her emotional story on CBS Sunday Morning, where she got into some of the meanings behind her new single "Cry Pretty." She says one major hardship was unsuccessfully carrying 3 babies to term, and still having to put out new music. Carrie explains sometimes you put on a happy face … even in sadness. Carrie also suffered a serious injury late last year that required her to get about 50 stitches in her face. Needless to say … it's been rough for her for a multitude of reasons. Thankfully, Carrie is currently pregnant with her second child — which she announced just last month. She looks to be a few months along at this point.

Thu, Dec 12 Thu, Dec 5 Thu, Nov 21 Thu, Nov 7 Thu, Oct 31 By Joe Uchill Welcome to Codebook, the cybersecurity newsletter that never said it didn't collude with Russia. 1 big thing: Hackers target African banks using North Korean tactics A bank vault. Photo: Matjaz Slanic/Getty Images A cluster of attempted digital robberies at West African financial institutions appear to have been imitating the North Korea-linked Lazarus Group's run of heists, according to Symantec. Why it matters: Lazarus, internationally notorious for the Sony hack and the WannaCry malware, is currently very active stealing funds to support the Kim Jong-un regime. The Symantec finding is fascinating as an example of how attacks trickle down from nations to more common criminals. The big picture: "It seems like after the high public profile of the North Korea thefts, these hackers took those tactics," said Jon DiMaggio, a senior threat intelligence analyst at Symantec. The Lazarus group has utilized the SWIFT system, which banks use to request money from one another, in several high-profile thefts, but the attacks Symantec documented did not. What they did use were a similar set of tools to what Lazarus used to set up those attacks, as outlined in a 2017 alert. Symantec did not want to publicly specify the exact tools that were used. Background: This isn't the first time DiMaggio said he had seen hackers influenced by a high-profile Lazarus attack. After the group's most famous heist, the theft of $81 million from the central bank of Bangladesh, a separate criminal group added SWIFT fraud to their toolkit. Symantec's report outlined four different techniques of attacks currently being used in Africa that may represent more than one criminal group. The first, the one flagged as similar to the SWIFT heists, targeted firms in Ivory Coast and Equatorial Guinea. All four clusters used a mix of easily purchasable malware and "living off the land" techniques — avoiding detection using as much software already on victims' computers during the break-in as possible. The other groups of attacks spanned Ivory Coast, Ghana, the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Cameroon. Historically, West African financial groups have not been common targets for hackers, according to the Symantec report. DiMaggio believes that a softer regulatory structure may have made African banks a tempting target. The bottom line: DiMaggio stressed that IT staff globally have to become more accustomed to looking for living-off-the-land attacks that don't appear to create suspicious network traffic. "You have to look at legitimate traffic," he said. "You can't just wait for a warning screen to flash red." 2. Massive list of 1.1 billion passwords circulating on hacker forum Troy Hunt, the researcher who runs breach archive Have I Been Pwned?, announced he has come across a list of email addresses and passwords on a popular hacker forum with more than 1.1 billion pairs of email addresses and passwords. Why it matters: The list, titled "Collection #1," is an amalgam of multiple breaches and would likely be used by automated systems to find which of those email address owners reused their passwords on different sites. By the numbers: 773 million different email addresses appear in the list. Hunt estimates there are 140 million email addresses on the Collection #1 list that have never shown up in the Have I Been Pwned? database. Hunt doesn't store email addresses with corresponding passwords. By keeping them as separate lists, he minimizes the risk of storing data. But Collection #1 contained 21 million passwords Have I Been Pwned? had never seen before. Our thought bubble: We're not looking forward to Collection #2. 3. Facebook deletes fake accounts linked to Russian news site Sputnik The main newsroom of Sputnik news, Moscow, April 2018. Photo: Mladen Antonov/AFP/Getty Images Via Axios' Sara Fischer: Facebook said Thursday that it has removed hundreds of pages and accounts that pretended to be real news sites from places in Eastern Europe, but were actually operated by employees from Russian state-owned news company Sputnik. Why it matters: The effort potentially shows a new tactic being used by Russia to weaponize misinformation — using its state-run media arm to create fake posts that look like they come from real newsrooms in vulnerable countries. Details: In total, Facebook says it removed 364 pages and accounts from a network that originated in Russia and operated in parts of the former Soviet Union, such as the Baltics, Central Asia, the Caucasus, and other countries in central and eastern Europe. Facebook says the owners and operators of the accounts represented themselves as independent pages on topics like news, weather, sports and economics — or politicians from various countries. Some of the pages frequently posted about anti-NATO and anti-corruption topics. Between the lines: Facebook says the groups also spent $135,000 on ads, the first big ad spend announcement the tech giant has made since it first revealed bad actors bought ads on the platform in the fall of 2017. Facebook says the organizations paid for the ads, which started running in October 2013, in euros, rubles and U.S. dollars. They also set up 190 real-world events scheduled between August 2015 and January 2019. Up to 1,200 people expressed interest in at least one of these events, though Facebook can't confirm if any events actually occurred. Facebook also says, with a tip from law enforcement, that it removed accounts and pages from a separate campaign originating from Russia and Ukraine that used "coordinated misinformation tactics" on Facebook and Instagram. It says the two operations don't appear to be linked, despite using similar tactics. This campaign was smaller than the first. Facebook removed 26 pages, 77 accounts and 4 groups on Facebook, as well as 41 accounts on Instagram. These actors also bought around $25,000 in ads on Facebook and Instagram that were paid for in rubles. The ads ran throughout 2018. 4. Telegram malware left unsecured by Telegram's shortcomings Researchers at Forcepoint posted a deep dive into malware that used a service from the Telegram secure messaging app in its infrastructure. What they found revealed as much about the service as the malware. Why it matters: Telegram offers other developers a "Bot API," a Telegram interface to secure communications within their own programs. But the level of encryption in the Bot API is not as high as the one Telegram Messenger uses, allowing Forcepoint to tap in to the full history of the malware's communications that used the Bot API to obscure its function. The GoodSender malware profiled by Forcepoint has been active since Feb. 4, meaning the report is technically an early birthday gift to the malware infecting around 120 victims. The malware is propagated using EternalBlue, the now-patched, allegedly NSA-discovered vulnerability made famous by the WannaCry attacks. Forcepoint notes that the same techniques it used on GoodSender could easily be used on actual good senders — well-intending developers that thought the Telegram framework would secure their programs. 5. Coin miner may be the first to uninstall cloud security products Palo Alto Networks believes the Rocke group, criminals the firm first reported on last summer, may have designed the first malware that uninstalls cloud security products. Why it matters: Rocke group's intentions might be bland; the malware was designed to mine the Monero cryptocurrency. But the malware, which targets five cloud security products designed by Tencent Cloud and Alibaba Cloud, would be a new evolution in the field. The Rocke group's wares don't exploit vulnerabilities in the security software. Rather, it logs in as an administrator and uninstalls the products. 6. Report: Huawei may face criminal charges for IP theft The Wall Street Journal reports that Huawei may face criminal charges in the United States for theft of intellectual property. Why it matters: This is the latest in a flood of bad news for Huawei, including international bans on telecommunications products believed to be sabotaged by the Chinese government for espionage, unrelated arrests of employees for espionage and violation of sanctions against Iran, and the broader U.S. trade war. Investigators began to pursue the case, per the Journal, following civil lawsuits against Huawei, including one for the theft of testing equipment designed by T-Mobile. Our thought bubble, from Axios' Ina Fried: At issue here is a dispute over "Tappy," a tool that tests smartphone endurance — and it's a really old case to be basing new charges on. 7. Odds and ends The SEC charged hackers with using non-public information in illicit trading. (SEC) More than 3 TB of data exposed by the Oklahoma Securities Commission contains everything from life insurance policies to brokers social security numbers. The data exposure was short, and it does not immediately appear to have been noticed by any malicious actors. (UpGuard) A breach investigator believes a Trisis attack against a Saudi plant could have been prevented. (CyberScoop) Hackers breached systems at the South Korean Defense Acquisition Program Administration. (Dong-a Ilbo) The FCC asks for a delay in a net neutrality suit, citing the shutdown. (Ars Technica) Deepfakes need a deep fix. (Foreign Affairs) Hackers are exploiting a patched ThinkPHP exploit in the wild. (Akamai) Lazarus attempted robberies in Chile. (Flashpoint) Codebook will be back on Tuesday, following a weekend at ShmooCon.

Philip Glass - Dance Nos. 1-5 Genre: NEO CLASSICAL / MODERN / NEW AGE Format: 180g 3LP Edition 180g 3LP Edition 180g 3LP Edition - $1,318.00 Label: Music On Vinyl The music on Dance Nos. 1-5 was originally conceived as a three-way collaboration between composer Philip Glass, choreographer Lucinda Childs and artist Sol LeWitt. Dance received its world premiere in Amsterdam on October 19, 1979 and its New York premiere at the Brooklyn Academy of Music on November 29, 1979. Post-dating Einstein on the Beach - Glass's 1975-76 collaboration with director Robert Wilson - Dance was another Glass collaboration, this time with choreographer Lucinda Childs, known for her austere, athematically exact dances, and artist Sol LeWitt, who provided a ghostly, gigantic black- and-white film for several of the piece's five sections. Dance has an abstract purity that easily earned it the label "minimalist," a term that Glass himself disavows but that seems appropriate, at least in this case. After Dance, Glass's music took several turns, not so much in style as in the various new contexts in which it was presented: major opera commissions and film scores led him to write for forces other than those of the Philip Glass Ensemble. At the same time, an attempt to reach a wide audience resulted in some shorter, perhaps more accessible, narrative pieces. Dance marked the blossoming of the composer's experimental work. Here, though, the music - particularly Dance Nos. "1", "3" and "5", all written for the Ensemble-has an unforgettable exuberance that somehow speaks all at once of joyful innocence, intense erotic desire, tenderness, regret and, finally, acceptance. On the other hand, Dance Nos. "2" and "4" see Glass composing several large-scale works for solo organ; for instance, Dance No. 2 originated as a 1978 work entitled Fourth Series Part Two. This piece, later incorporated into Dance, and Dance No. "4" as well, have a more subdued, more darkly romantic quality than the work's other sections and are quite unlike anything Glass had previously written. Still, they too, with their mysterious tilts of time and key signatures, continue the exploration of polyrhythms and harmonic complexities within the context of Glass's repetitive, "minimalist" style. The complete Dance Nos. 1-5 album is now available on vinyl for the first time in its entirety on a 3LP-set with five sides of music. The 3 LP's are housed in a heavyweight sleeve.

Q: Google Maps visual refresh - how do disable font Roboto in InfoWindow Just trying the new option google.maps.visualRefresh = true in the new version 3.12 of the Google maps javascript API. And although the map new look is great, now the text in my InfoWindows is using the font size Roboto. The new InfoWindow content div CSS is: font-family: Roboto, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; font-weight: 300; This wasn't the case before and it doesn't work at all with the design of my website. Any idea how I could remove it to use the default font define in my body? A: You can still use your own font in an InfoWindow. Simply provide HTML content instead of plain text, and you can style it any way you want with inline CSS or a stylesheet. Example in this fiddle: var infowindow = new google.maps.InfoWindow({ map: map, position: center, content: '<div class="myinfo">Computer History!</div>' }); using this CSS: .myinfo { font-family:Georgia,serif; font-size:18px; } A: Use HTML content and style it like suggested in this answer. However, you need a CSS rule with higher specificity. See this fiddle (forked from Michael Gearys fiddle): #mapbox .myinfo { font-family:Georgia,serif; font-size:18px; } A: If you are quite lazy, as I am, you can out-specifitize Google by one-upping them.

If you remember I photographed Kelsey and Chris's wedding last March. I can't believe it has been a year already! Now almost exactly one year later they have a beautiful baby girl named Kynlee. So last weekend I was off to Adair to pay the White's a visit. This little girl is so cute and was so good for the whole shoot never making a sound. Kelsey and Chris have such a beautiful property that I just had to take advantage of their outdoor scenery for a lot of the shoot. It turned out to be a great session and I am really happy that I got to take these newborn photos of beautiful Kynlee White. Wonderful,awesome pictures of my new great grandaughter with her mother and father. I thought the pictures of their wedding were fabulous but these are even better. Thank you.

New Report Debunks the EU Jobs Myth Jobs are associated with trade, not membership of a political union, and there is little evidence to suggest that trade would substantially fall between British businesses and European consumers in the event the UK was outside the EU.Politicians who continue to claim that three million jobs are linked to our EU membership should be publicly challenged over misuse of this assertion. Jobs are associated with trade, not membership of a political union, and there is little evidence to suggest that trade would substantially fall between British businesses and European consumers in the event the UK was outside the EU.In a new report from the Institute of Economic Affairs, author Ryan Bourne calls for a rational debate, acknowledging how the structure of the UK labour market is fluctuating constantly; prior to the financial crisis, the UK saw on average 4 million jobs created and 3.7 million jobs lost every single year.Leaving the EU would see a multitude of new policy decisions which would affect trade flows and the composition of the workforce, from trade arrangements through to the regulatory policies adopted.

The parable of the Prodigal Son is one of the most well known. How Nicely Will James Harden And Russell Westbrook Play Collectively With The Houston Rockets? to him, embraces him, loves him and offers him presents; he appears totally oblivious to the truth that his son has disrespected him, acted outrageously, and lost every thing. Each the older son and his prodigal brother are problematic people - the older son fails in his familial duties and mistreats his father and brother, whereas the youthful son breaks his father's coronary heart. 2. The parables of the lost coin and the lost sheep are primarily stories of group celebration: the shepherd and the girl invite buddies and neighbours to rejoice with them over the restoration of the thing misplaced; neither the shepherd nor the woman stands for God within the parable. I Was Fired For Pointing Out CBS Information 'Hostile Work Atmosphere' of "The Parable of the Prodigal Son" is that a sinful life just isn't fulfilling and eventually results in destruction. Meanwhile, the other son has remained dutiful and worked arduous on his father's estate. Best Drugstore Buy Medications Online And Save Your Money - CLICK HERE The Pokemon Anime Character Followers Want To Return are borrowed immediately from the King James model of this best known of Jesus' parables. If a Jewish boy misplaced his family inheritance among the many Gentiles and sought to return residence, the neighborhood would perform the ceremony by breaking a big pot in entrance of him and declare - so-in-so is minimize off from his folks." Once performed, Authorities Remaining Flashcards would be an outcast and nobody would have something to do with him. As Serena Williams Career Statistics That Will Make Your Jaw Drop , the parable's messages of finding the misplaced, of reclaiming youngsters, of reassessing the that means of family offer not only good news, but higher information. Despite the daddy's pleading for them to come in," they refused and have been those who instigated the arrest and crucifixion of Jesus Christ (Matthew 26:fifty nine). There isn't Unpacking Ben Solo Aka Kylo Ren's Star Wars Ep 9 Ending in Deuteronomy 30 for the crucial distinction at the heart of the parable between the 2 sons. If we're trying at the three parables of Luke 15 as a group, we might expect the story to finish right here, in celebration. The son squanders his inheritance then returns residence to humble himself before his father, who celebrates his return. It recounts a son's departure from his father's home, the teachings he learns, and his return, wiser for the expertise. This very good parable comprises many classes which relate to the fabric in this book. This parable exhibits the deep love of a father for his lost son. Yahoo Is Now A Half Of Verizon Media restored his younger son's status, symbolized in putting a ring on his finger and giving him a brand new cloak. Seeing New Songs, Playlists & Newest News that the pigs had been eating better than him, he decides to return to his father and beg to be allowed to serve as a hired servant on the estate. 21 And the son mentioned to him, 'Father, I've sinned in opposition to heaven and before you. The central message of the parable, then, is an pressing and sobering entreaty to exhausting-hearted listeners whose attitudes precisely mirrored the elder brother's. That he was in a position to see the younger son when he was still a good distance off implies that the father was looking ahead to his son, ready for him, eager for him.

International Students Discuss Success, Challenges at Spotlight Seminar Panel Culture / November 12, 2018 by Sobia Moman International Students Discuss Success, Challenges at Spotlight Seminar Panel (Sobia Momon) Five of KPU's international students spoke as part of a panel discussion at the Surrey campus on Oct. 31. The discussion centered on each student's unique experience coming to Canada to study. One key takeaway from the event was that the panelists—each from a different country—were drawn to Canada because of its diversity. Most of them had heard that it was possible to feel accepted in Canada due to the many cultural communities already established here. The panelists also spoke about the challenges they have faced studying abroad. One panelist, Heo Yun Young, said she had a difficult time reading and writing in English, and like many international students, had to work on her language skills every day. Fernando Cilento, a panelist from Brazil, feels that instructors should check in with international students more often to help them adjust to their new life in Canada. Like Young, he believes that many international students may not feel comfortable in class because typically they are not wholly familiar with the language in which they're being taught. Arshdeep Boparai, an international student from India who attended the panel, echoed Cilento's point. She feels that both instructors and students should make an effort to help international students feel more welcome in the classroom. Although she enjoyed her first two years at KPU, she also has a hard time affording the high cost of tuition while still achieving good grades in school. Another panelist, Gunjanpreet Kaur, spoke about how, after she arrived in Canada, she was "totally by [herself] and had no contacts and no relatives" to make the adjustment easier for her. This struggle was difficult for all the panelists, and they predict that the same is true of many other international students. Roberto Leiva, too, talked about his struggle with being alone and about overcoming certain difficulties without the support of another person. Through this, he says that he "learned more about [himself] and others" and is still "widening his perspective" on all aspects of his life. Daniel Cole, a panelist from Nigeria, said that his most significant challenge as an international student is balancing school and work. He was not familiar with this lifestyle when he was in Nigeria, and says that while adjusting was difficult, he eventually "got used to how to manage [his] time." Another major concern mentioned at the panel was the financial pressure that international students feel when paying for tuition at KPU. Cilento addressed this issue as being "the biggest challenge for [him] and probably a lot of [international] students." He says that he "really admires international students" because of the sacrifices that they make to be at KPU, adding that "families are struggling as well" to support their kids financially.

Don't answer the phone unless you really have to… Or it's a customer – the same rules apply here as they do to emails and texts. The only difference is that you have to be aware of providing the best customer service you can, and that may mean answering the phone for customers and clients. Again, check voice-mails only a few times a day and respond as necessary. Tie your to-do list to your calendar – Most of us have a to-do list, and that list seems to get longer, not shorter, as time goes on. We then have trouble prioritizing and reshuffling the tasks and fewer and fewer of them get done. Part of the problem lies with due dates of "soon", "sometime next week", and "ASAP". Since these are abstract ideas of time, the human brain doesn't process them the same way as a hard due date. By putting tasks on your calendar with blocks of time to accomplish them, just as you would set an appointment, you automatically prioritize the tasks and reserve the proper amount of time to get that task done. Make sure that if the task is more than a few days out, you set periodic reminders for yourself. Delegate wherever and whenever possible –Much of the time we find ourselves doing things ourselves that we can delegate to others, freeing up our valuable time for those things we can't delegate. Make sure that when you delegate a task, you assign it in writing with a due date, and if the due date is more than a few days out, make sure you get periodic status reports. Most CRMs (Customer Relationship Management systems) allow you to assign tasks to others. If you don't have a CRM, do it on a shared calendar. Share your calendar – It's important that others on your team know what you're doing and when you're doing it so they know when not to disturb you. By calendaring tasks (above) and sharing that calendar, you indicate the times you are busy, removing in-office distractions. Access Expertise-as-a-Service when and where needed – by using experts to get the information you need in the proper context, you shorten the amount of time needed to make mission-critical decisions, freeing up time to do other important tasks. Try these tips for 60 days. Why 60? Because it will take you at least 30 days to break the habits of looking at your smart phone 50-100 times a day and keeping your email folders open. After using these methods for a few months, I think you'll find that it's easier to get more things done faster, with less aggravation and better results. Have you tried any of these tips before? how did they work for you? What advice do you have to use time efficiently? Please comment to let us know.

I grew up in a Catholic home. My father converted to Catholicism the year that I made my First Holy Communion. But, more importantly than being raised in a home with religion was that my parents raised my four older siblings and me to be good people by using our faith in God as our compass. And did I mention that I was raised in the Deep South where ours was the only Catholic church in the county? Luckily, Prince William has more offerings than my hometown did. If you are looking for your compass, Prince William has many options. We are as diverse in religious communities as we are in ethnicities and race. This month's cover story, "Finding Faith: Religions Across the Region" by Helena Tavares Kennedy explores Christian, Jewish, Muslim and Pagan religions that have places of worship within the county lines. Find out how some of these religions vary and how their leaders come together to help our diverse community. Big party? Check. Venue? Check. Caterer? I'm still looking. If local caterers are people you want to connect with, then look no further than this month's Local Flavor. In a different twist on local flavors, instead of writing about restaurants, Marianne Weaver writes about caterers who don't have a restaurant. In "Party Planning 101: Call in the Caterers," she discusses how they each got their start, what kind of food they serve and how you can contact these local businesses. Delia Engstrom wrote about the Thomasson Dairy Farm and interviewed the owners, who converted it a to brew house with a splash of entertainment on the side.

2022 artists Festival layout and map Festival Vendors Traveling: Train or Air Peoples Natural Gas Park Concerts and Events at the Park Event parking Park Rental COVID-19 crisis forces the cancellation of the AmeriServ Flood City Music Festival The Johnstown Area Heritage Association (JAHA) has today announced the cancelation of its signature event, the AmeriServ Flood City Music Festival, which was to be held Jul. 31-Aug. 1, 2020 at Peoples Natural Gas Park. "We waited to make this decision as long as we could, hoping for more clarity on when large gatherings like concerts and festivals would be possible – but at this point, no one knows, and we cannot continue in a holding pattern," said Ron Carnevali, festival chairman. "It is now time to let our patrons, sponsors, volunteers, and artists know that the 2020 festival is canceled. We are deeply disappointed, as we'd done a great deal of planning and were even ready to announce a lineup." "As an organization that is committed to the economic vitality of the communities we serve, we too, had hoped the festival would go on as planned," said Jeff Stopko, president and CEO of AmeriServ Financial, Inc. "However, it's important to do what's right to ensure the safety and protection of our residents and visitors. This pandemic has certainly proven that it is not business as usual and we must be patient and do what's right to be able to move beyond this in a planned and orderly manner. We look forward to once again sponsoring the festival in 2021 and joining with community and JAHA leaders to bring visitors back to our great city." In addition to the potential health risks, Carnevali pointed to challenges related to sponsorship support and selling advance tickets. "Our sponsors are the lifeblood of the event and have been incredibly supportive, but many of them are feeling the financial effects of this crisis," Carnevali said. "And in the current climate, it would be extremely difficult to sell advance tickets." Other major local and regional events that have canceled include Thunder in the Valley (Johnstown), Three Rivers Arts Festival (Pittsburgh), Deutschtown Music Festival (Pittsburgh), Central PA Festival of the Arts (State College), Delfest (Cumberland, MD), and many others. If the all-clear is given for larger events, JAHA hopes to hold a concert at Peoples Natural Gas Park in September 2020. "We don't yet know if this will be possible, but it's something to hope for," Carnevali said. "And we have every intention of bringing the festival back in 2021."

Department Policies Celebrating Excellence Clinical Goals & Objectives Seminar Goals & Objectives RCPSC Program Time-Based Program Rotation Objectives CBD Program Teaching Sites Off-Service Residents CFPC-EM Program Academic Calendar & Events McCabe Research Group Grants Received Emergency Medicine Research Group Informatics Program Emergency Medicine Questions Advantages of the FRCPS program over the CFPC-EM program: - Allows more for interest in a subspecialty of Emergency Medicine (ie. toxicology, sports, medical education, critical care, clinical epidemiology, pediatric EM, etc). - More time to explore niche areas (ie. neurosurgery, CCU senior, medicine senior, ophthalmology, radiology, dermatology, women's health, ultrasound, etc). - Easier route to becoming an academic physician/leader in Emergency Medicine. - Easier route to get a job in an academic centre. Are there sufficient elective opportunities during training in the FRCPS program to explore your special interests? As indicated above, our program contains ample elective time. Residents may place 12 months of elective together to obtain some subspecialty training (eg. toxicology) or pursue a Master's level degree. Disadvantages of RCPSC Emergency Medicine Program vs. CCFP(EM) Program: - You don't get a family medicine license (loss of flexibility). - Loss of income with extra two years of study. - Longer time spent in residency. How competitive is it to get in, and then to succeed in your field? The consistently high calibre of applicants makes entry into the field challenging, but shows that the future of Emergency Medicine is bright. Applicants are usually very well rounded and dedicated, but you don't have to be a Nobel Prize winner. How is your residency program organized (ie. year by year breakdown and schedule of rotations)? Refer to the FRCPS or CFPC-EM section of our resident website for details. There are two routes to ER training. The CCFP-EM route consists of two years of a family medicine residency then one year of ER. The RCPSC route is a five-year residency, with more than one year of elective time to pursue additional interests. Is there active and/or required research in your residency program? The Department of Emergency Medicine is actively involved in EM research at local, national, and international levels. Current areas of research include ED overcrowding, acute asthma/COPD care, pediatric CT head rules, and various studies in pre-hospital care, air medical transport, and medical education. We are very proud to be home the University of Alberta Emergency Medicine Research Group, led by Dr. Brian Rowe, the Canada research chair in emergency airway diseases and an internationally respected EM researcher. Each resident is expected to take part in some form of scholarly project during their training years. This project is defined as "the production and dissemination of academic education or research materials suitable for dissemination at a national or international level." The Department of Emergency Medicine Research Program provides support for these activities. During the PGY-2 year, residents participate in an Emergency Medicine Research Module, which includes a one-week research methodology course. The rest of the module is designed for the resident to start a feasible research project to be completed by the end of residency. We also have specific Evidence Based Medicine Rounds and Journal Club every month. Mentors help us learn to critically appraise the literature and practice evidence based medicine. Specifically is there a list of residents whom we can call or email? Contact our program administrator, Maria Borges at [email protected]. What can a potential candidate do now in order to be an appealing applicant to your program? - Show your interest in contributing to our program. Do an elective in emergency medicine in various cities in Canada and abroad. - Get letters of reference from emergency physicians if you can. - Participate in a project related to emergency medicine (contact the EM research office) if you enjoy research. - Be yourself around the residents and staff in our department. - Attend a local or national emergency medicine conference to gain further exposure to our discipline What distinguishes the U of A program from other programs? Our program has a strong, supportive group of residents and staff physicians. Also, the two Emergency Medicine Programs work closely with each other. Our program contains great flexibility and support for those who choose to pursue specific areas of interest in emergency medicine whether it be research, critical care, EMS medical direction or just about anything relevant. What do you look for specifically in a competitive candidate? - You work well in a team, especially as a leader. - You are well-rounded. - You adapt quickly to all situations. - You are compassionate and caring with patients. - You work hard and contribute to making the program better. - You can apply your knowledge and skills in a variety of situations What is the FRCPS residency program's orientation and focus? The FRCPS program is very focused on building competent academic emergency physicians. Academic half-day, journal club, various rounds, clinical learning and specific exam preparation in your final year of training allow you every opportunity for success on your Royal College certification exam. In addition, the CanMEDS competencies form an essential part of our evaluation scheme, ensuring that you become a complete physician. We aim to produce leaders in the field of emergency medicine in our own city, our country, and internationally. What is the on-call schedule during each year of residency? Call is really only an issue during the first three years of residency, when we do the majority of our off-service rotations. Call requirements are outlined in our current contract, negotiated by PARA, our professional resident body. Current call regulations dictate that a resident do no more than one in four in-house calls or 1 in 3 home calls, and no more than two of four weekends. What local, national or international conferences would benefit candidates interested in your residency program? The annual conference of Canadian Association of Emergency Physicians (CAEP) includes a dedicated Medical Student Symposium where students learn about career opportunities in Emergency Medicine. Whom do I contact for more information or to set up electives? - To set up a clinical elective, contact the Undergraduate Program Administrator, Mary-Lynn Ferguson. - Year 1 and 2 University of Alberta medical students can sign up for shadowing experiences through the 'EM Club', if you need access please email [email protected]. Can you describe a typical day? I arrive at my shift and take handover from the doctor going home, noting all the things that need to be completed. I start seeing patients, beginning with the sickest, and frequently reassess them as I take care of the less acute patients. I see a trauma patient, do a shoulder reduction, assess a short-of-breath 95-year-old lady, suture a laceration, thrombolyze an MI, decide if someone is suicidal, and eat when I can. After my eight-hour shift, I stay an extra hour or two to clean up. How do you see your discipline changing over the next decade? The next 10 years in emergency medicine will be both exciting and trying. Overcrowding in particular has become a key issue, preventing emergency physicians from providing the best care possible. Emergency physicians, through organizations such as the Canadian Association of Emergency Physicians (CAEP), are actively combating this problem. Patients are presenting to EDs with greater acuity, and the overall population is aging. We are being called upon to "up the ante" and become the true foundation of our medical system. Emergency Medicine is leading the way in evidence–based medicine, and while it seems our scope of practice is constantly changing and expanding, as a specialty our role as medical leaders is becoming more defined. How well does your specialty accommodate family life? Shift work has its bonuses and drawbacks. Although you may have to work two out of four weekends and some holidays, you have days off during the week. During these times, you may pick up your child from school, do your errands during business hours. With shift work, staff often "stack" 4 or 5 together in order to take an extended number of days off. Further, staff can usually trade shifts easily to accommodate various circumstances. One of the best things about shift work is that when you leave the hospital, no one calls or pages you. Your free time is free time. What are the best things about your specialty? - Diversity of problems and patients. - Very much acute care medicine. - Front-line work allows us to see undifferentiated patients not yet assessed by another physician. - Flexible work hours and areas of interest. - Shift work as opposed to being "on call." - Great mix of procedural skills and problem solving. - We are true patient advocates, and work hard to get the best care for the people we see. - Flexible hours and time for family and outside interests. What are the worst things about your specialty? - In our cross-sectional specialty, our consultants often have a deeper understanding of our cases than we do. - Lack of follow-up. - Shift work can be a tough adjustment, especially if you share a life with people who work 9 to 5. What types of clinical cases do you commonly see? All kinds of cases, from pediatrics to geriatrics, trauma to orthopedics, Infectious Diseases to Critical Care. Most cases are of a higher acuity. Why did you choose your specialty? - "I like to multitask and I fit in well with the mentors I have met." - "High acuity and variety." - "I liked every rotation in medical school and could not imagine only working in one narrow field." - "Shift work is great and I never have to carry a pager. I can go skiing in the middle of the week when there are no crowds." Postgraduate (Residency) Program Questions

A private jet with a flexibly-adjusted flight schedule is certainly the best solution for ad hoc trips or the need to visit several places in one day. An air taxi flight is a cost-effective but luxurious option for short-distance trips. In the case of a small airport with a short runway, or a poorly accessible mountain resort, a turbo-jet plane or a helicopter will be the best way to reach the destination. Safety, travel comfort and full discretion are our priorities in organising any journey.

Q: Accessing underscore.js on Heroku for local execution within Rails app I need to execute user-entered JavaScript on Heroku under Rails and I want to load underscore.js into my V8 context before running the user-entered js. I'm using the underscore-rails gem for purposes of browser-side execution, so I'd like to pull the underscore.js file from my server gem repository. My question is, how can I "find" this file in the gem repository? Alternatively, is there a better way to handle this? A: Use node.js and then download the npm underscore and then in whichever javascript files you want to use underscore in, at the top put var _ = require('underscore'); and your in business. Node can be easily ported to v8, and heroku has everything you need to run it. A: You can find the root of a gem as described in the answer to this question, then just append the relative path to the file you're interested in.

Q: Grand Central Dispatch (GCD) in swift I'm familiar with using AsyncTask in Android: create a subclass, call execute on an instance of the subclass and onPostExecute is called on the UI thread or main thread. What's the equivalent in swift?? A: I think using NSOperationQueue is more elegant and simple. You create a queue: var queue = NSOperationQueue() And create task: let operation = NSBlockOperation { () -> Void in // Perform your task } After that, put your task in queue queue.addOperation(operation) That is. In case you want perform UI-related task, using this code block: NSOperationQueue.mainQueue().addOperationWithBlock { () -> Void in // UI related task } NSOperationQueue offers you the simple way to set dependency between tasks. For example, you have 4 task, op1, op2, op3, op4. And you want that op1 needs to be done before op2, then you can write like this: op2.addDependency(op1) Then op2 will be fired after op1 done. Since there is no dependency for op3 and op4, it could be done before/or after op2 A: This solves most of my async requirements in Swift: public func background(function: @escaping () -> Void) { DispatchQueue.global().async(execute: function) } public func main(function: @escaping () -> Void) { DispatchQueue.main.async(execute: function) } Then use like: background { // I'm in the background main { // I'm back on Main } } For example: background { [weak self] in let result = longOperationToFetchData() main { self?.data = result.data self?.reloadTableView() } }
