The default hanging indent value (i.e., how far in the text begins) isn't wide enough for the 3-digit numbers. (Default seems to be for the number itself to be indented 0.25", and the following text indented 0.5", which leaves only 0.25" for the number.) When it's not wide enough, then, Word has to move the hanging text over to the next tab stop.
You can fix this as follows: select the entire numbered list, right-click and select Adjust List Indents, and then set Number position and Text indent to whatever you want.

I have got the steps for fixing the Numbering Issue of Microsoft Word 2007. Just follow the steps so that your text and numbers will be aligned correctly :
From the numbered list, select all of the items. Then click the drop-down arrow at the right of the Numbering tool in the Paragraph group, on the Home tab of the ruler. You will find that Word displays a palette of options. Click the Define New Number Format option. Word displays the Define New Number Format dialog box, and all the options in the dialog box should match whatever was set in the numbered list you selected in step 1. Choose the Right, using the Alignment drop-down list. Finally click on OK.

Sure, but what if he does want the numbers to be left-aligned, just that the following text should always be indented the same distance from the page margin? – Alex Feb 12 '10 at 17:51

How to build a motorcycle ramp for a shed
How long should my shed ramp be?
How high should shed be off ground?
What is a good angle for a ramp?
Bottom line: recommended ramp slope:
The preferred slope for a building access ramp is 1:12 or 1 inch of rise per 12 inches of horizontal run – that's roughly an 8% slope also written as a 4.8 degree angle slope.
What is best for shed base?
You can also use a wooden frame or concrete slabs. Using concrete slabs is a very traditional way to build a shed base and although it takes some initial work, it does provide excellent stability in the long term. Below are the steps involved in building a shed base using concrete slabs.
How do you load a motorcycle without a ramp?
Grab the right handle with one hand and the axle with the other, and lift the front of the bike onto the truck bed. Lift the bike up again until the engine plate is also resting in the truck bed. Grab the rear axle and pull the back tire into the truck.
How steep can a ramp be?
Maximum slope for hand-propelled wheelchair ramps should be 1″ of rise to every 12″ of length (4.8 degree angle; 8.3% grade). Maximum slope for power chairs should be 1.5″ rise to 12″ length (7.1 degree angle; 12.5% grade).

pEvtObj [in]
Type: IHTMLEventObj
Standards information
When one object loses activation and another object becomes the IHTMLDocument2::activeElement, the HTMLInputFileElementEvents2::onfocus event fires on the object becoming the IHTMLDocument2::activeElement only after the HTMLInputFileElementEvents2::onblur event fires on the object losing activation. Use the focus events to determine when to prepare an object to receive input from the user.
Elements cannot receive focus until the document is finished loading.
For Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.5 and later, focus on a document, and the IHTMLDocument2::activeElement of a document can be managed separately. The synchronous events HTMLInputFileElementEvents2::onactivate and HTMLInputFileElementEvents2::ondeactivate provide better control for managing activation changes.
As of Microsoft Internet Explorer 5, elebrowserments retain focus within the current history when the user returns to a page. To avoid firing the HTMLInputFileElementEvents2::onfocus event unintentionally for an element when the document loads, invoke the IHTMLElement2::focus method on another element.
Sets focus to an object.

The Meaning of a Spider Sighting
Meaning of a Spider Sighting | California Psychics
Regeneration and Patience
When you think of a spider, do you think of darkness, unpredictability, entrapment, fangs, and venom? Or do you think of creativity, balance, regeneration, patience, and courage? The relationship you share with this creature of both light and dark, may determine how its presence plays out in your life.
If you combine the many different cultural beliefs of the spider, there is a suggested connection to its web and the creation of the world. Native Americans see the spider as perched in the center of its web with everything emanating from its centric position. This position also enables the spider to draw things back into itself, thereby becoming both the creator and the destroyer. When you see a spider's web it is a reminder that you are always weaving the outcome of your own future. It is reminding you to balance each strand that will soon become your past, because a web (future) is only as strong (balanced) as the previous weaves before it.
There is a creative energy inside of you, whether it's expressed in the creative arts, or in other ways, it exists. A spider sighting, particularly in a dream, may be a hint to engage those creative juices to weave something new and beautiful into your life. This could refer to your career, your relationships, or in your home life. Spiders are also quick to recognize when it is time to move locations because their web keeps getting knocked down by a gate or the wind. And if your own creative ideas are in a state of constant tear down, it may be time to move to the other side of the garden the next time you rebuild.
A spider's web is an intricate piece of construction, patiently built by the spider. When you see a spider's web, remember that you are in charge of your own life as a spider is the weaver of it's web. It's a reminder to be careful about the choices that you make. Spider webs also symbolize the ability to positively affect your life through your thoughts and actions.
It may take many nights before a spider will receive any benefit from building a web. If you have put a lot into a project, task, relationship, or a dream, a spider may be reminding you to look back over what you've built and see if there are some threads you've yet to connect. It could also be a reminder to pay closer attention to opportunities you are missing.
The spider has anywhere from two to eight eyes at its disposal, each offering a slightly different viewpoint on the world. A sighting could be a reminder to look at a particularly troublesome situation from a variety of vantage points, including the ones from the people around you.
Consider if the fear of where a decision could take you may be the true source of any darkness you're experiencing. If this is the case, keep in mind that young spiders cast a strand of silk for the wind to carry them to new areas – sometimes they fly only a few feet, other times they can cross entire oceans. The only way to control the distance is to never throw out the entire strand, but that is no different than choosing to remain within the shadow of your true potential.
Infinite Possibilities
Spiders have both eight legs and eight eyes, and the number eight is associated with the concept of infinity. Now, picture yourself in the center of a spider's web, with each strand as a path that you can take in your life. You are standing in the center of infinite possibilities, which can be both frightening and exhilarating. Place your faith (not your fear) within the spider to give you the courage to face the changes that must come as you begin your next journey down one of these paths, for a spider sighting is also a symbol of luck and a sign for change. So, when you see a spider, know that a change, or a time when you'll have to make a decision is coming.
The Spider in a Dream
A spider in a dream can mean several different things, and it's very important to analyze how you are feeling when dealing with the spider at the time. If you are frightened it could mean that you fear you're not living up to your highest potential. If you want to kill the spider in you dream, it means that you need to release some tension in your life.
Not all spider dreams are negative though. If you dream of a spider building a web, it means that you are likely to build something in your life that will lead to your happiness. Spiders are also considered lucky, so if you don't experience any feelings of fear or anxiety during the dream, it could be a good omen.
Don't Panic!
It's not uncommon to be frightened when a spider appears, but don't immediately swat it away. Take a moment to contemplate what the spider may be trying to tell you about your day or a situation you're grappling with. They may have fresh insight for you.

Question: Is it safe to refreeze a partially thawed turkey? I started to defrost a frozen turkey for a holiday dinner, but now I've had a change in plans. Can I refreeze the turkey?
Answer: It's fine to refreeze a thawed turkey — as long as you thawed it in the refrigerator. If that was the case, you can put it right back into the freezer according to the United States Department of Agriculture. If your turkey is fully thawed, you can safely keep it refrigerated for an additional one or two days before refreezing it. When you eventually thaw the turkey a second time, you may notice a decrease in quality, but it'll certainly be safe to eat.
If, on the other hand, you thawed the turkey in cold water or the microwave, the USDA advises that you should cook it immediately. That's because with either method, the turkey could have at least temporarily warmed up to a temperature higher than 40°F. At that point, harmful bacteria can begin to multiply and only further cooking will destroy it; simply refreezing the turkey won't do the trick.
Finally, if you thawed the turkey on the counter or in hot water, you shouldn't eat it at all. The USDA cautions that it's dangerous to eat any meat or poultry that's been thawed under those two methods, as the outer layer of the food would have been allowed to sit between the bacteria-breeding temperatures of 40° F and 140° F for far too long to be safe.

Abstract: Enterprises can influence and shape the behaviour of individuals in order to boost the innovativeness of the enterprise by applying HRM practices. The objective of the study is to identify relations between the application of a coherent bundle of HRM practices and internal sources of innovation, effectiveness of the individual phases of the innovative process, and the novelty scale of the innovation. The study was conducted among 92 innovative enterprises in Poland. The study is based upon an original bundle of HRM practices in six HRM areas significant for an innovative enterprise. The results show that there are relationships between the bundle of HRM practices and the innovativeness of an enterprise viewed in three aspects. Therefore, this article contributes to theory by original complementary approach to HRM practices and innovativeness of the enterprises. Analysis of the study resulted in a broad set of managerial implications of usage of HRM practices.

Throughout history, women have made a name for themselves by being pioneers in their fields. From Sally Ride to Marie Curie, Elizabeth Blackwell to Rosa Parks, women have worked hard to change the world.
My Name is Not Isabella is a children's book by Jennifer Fosberry with pictures by Mike Litwin that tells the story of a day in the life of a little girl named Isabella who dared to dream. She dreams of being an astronaut, a doctor, and an activist among other things, telling her mom what she will do to help change the world.
This is a great story for any little girl to inspire her to dream big and believe in herself. You can never start believing in yourself too soon and never dream too big. In a world full of stories about princesses and fairies, it's refreshing to see a book teaching girls that they can be whatever they set their minds to.
Not only is this a great story to help inspire little girls, it's a great book to help teach any child about women's history.

Key design considerations for lifts and escalators in offices - part 3 lift design for the redevelopment of existing office buildings
Graham BarkerView bio
Part one covered lift design considerations affecting building layout and space take.
Part two covered making the right choices during lift design.
There are many key design considerations for lifts and escalators in offices which are consistent across all projects, in Part 3 we'll focus on lift design associated with the redevelopment and refurbishment of lifts and escalators in existing office buildings:
- The challenges of lift design for existing office buildings
- The importance of lift and escalator feasibility studies for existing offices
- Suitability of the existing office lift provisions
- Opportunities to increase building population density
- Escalator constraints
The challenges of lift design for existing office buildings
For new office developments, the vertical transportation design has the luxury of not being restricted by an existing structure. Instead, the key consideration is minimising the building area occupied by the lift cores and lobbies to maximise the net lettable area. Every square foot or metre given over to lift shaft is space that can't be leased to a tenant.
In an existing building, the cross-sectional area of the lift shaft is typically a restriction due to the significant structural works, and therefore costs, which would be needed to move lift shaft walls. Frequently existing building will be increased in height with the addition of extra floors, and the lift shaft extended. Similarly, lift shafts may be excavated to increase their depth, or to enable the lift to serve new basement levels.
In any case, the constraints of an existing building often increase complexity and require a slightly different approach to that applied to new build development.
The importance of lift and escalator feasibility studies for existing offices
In an existing building, the first action should be to engage a lift consultant to undertake a feasibility assessment which will identify restrictions or limitations imposed by the structure on any lift or escalator works, and determine the areas where challenges may exist complying with latest regulations and standards. In parallel with this, the lift consultant will consider the architect or developer's plans and pull all these inputs together to provide advice on realistic opportunities which will help in delivering the overall aims of the development.
The lift and escalator survey and feasibility assessment can often form part of the developer's due diligence when considering purchasing a property, with the lift consultant often surveying the existing lift provisions as part of the acquisition process providing advice on the feasibility of future vertical transportation modifications.
Some examples of challenges a lift consultant may face for existing buildings include:
- Addition of new lower floors, associated with the excavation of the lift pit
- Addition of new upper floors and extension of the lifts to serve them
- Extending existing lifts to serve what was previously the roof level to activate the roof
- Increasing the size or speed of lifts to improve the buildings lift capacity without structural modifications
- Change lifts to a machine room less arrangement to release the area previously occupied by machine room
- Assessment of options to extend the lifespan of the lift whilst minimising capital investment
- Replacement or refurbishment of aged escalators which are landlocked
The feasibility assessment will inform the developer if their plans are deliverable within the envisaged budget and programme. The long lead time and high capital costs associated with lift works can have significant impacts on the projects on-time and on-budget success if not correctly planned for from the start.
Suitability of the existing office lift provisions
In most existing office buildings, the key initial consideration regarding lifts and escalators will be the suitability of the equipment for the intended use, the remaining life span of the equipment, and any significant capital expenditure which will be needed.
Opportunities to increase building population density
Over time the way that offices are used has developed. And the theme over recent years has seen office population density increasing placing greater demand on the lift system. It is important to assess the potential for existing office buildings, and lift systems, to handle this increased building population and to ensure that lift waiting times will be acceptable. This is an area where your lift consultant can couple a lift performance measurement survey with lift traffic analysis simulation to assess the suitability or limitations of the existing equipment.
Taken to the next step, performance measurement of existing lift systems can also identify ways in which a lift system's performance can be improved – be it by tuning of the existing system, or through targeted lift modifications and upgrades to deliver enhanced lift system performance with minimal intervention or capital investment. In a recent project, performance measurement of the existing lifts identified minor adjustments which could be made to the setup of the existing lifts, delivering marked improvement in lift performance, allowing the lifts to achieve BCO compliance even though the occupancy of the building increased.
Escalators are usually inserted into a building as part of the building's construction sequence, often being installed before surrounding walls and floors.. An escalator in a need of refurbishment or replacement will need to be managed differently.
In this scenario there are generally three potential solutions:
- A complete replacement can be undertaken when the escalator can be removed and a new unit brought into the building. If the escalators are located adjacent to the building entrance, or in an atrium this replacement can be undertaken easily.. However, the further into the building an escalator is, the bigger the challenge becomes of removing it.
- Where removal is not an option, then refurbishment of the existing may be considered. The various wear components of the escalator are removed and either reconditioned or replaced with new.
- Over recent years the concept of 'in truss replacement' has been developed where the escalator internals are stripped out leaving only the structural escalator shell. Then through detailed surveying and design, a new escalator is engineered and manufactured to fit within the original structure.
Its fair to say that no two escalator projects are the same and each needs its own detailed assessment of the available options, which are a factor not only of the escalator equipment but more significantly of how the old and new escalator equipment can be brought to site.
Lift and escalator consultancy for office developments
There are many ways in which a lift consultant can help to improve the value and operation of office buildings, through the thoughtful specification of the vertical transportation equipment.
This series of blogs aimed to provide some thoughts, coupled with experience from previous projects, to assist with the reader's future building designs and the associated lift and escalator design considerations. To discuss in more detail please don't hesitate to contact the writer.

How likely is it that Amesbury novichok is from Skripal batch?
This article is more than 3 years old
Experts say nerve agent degrades slowly and direct contact is most likely route of exposure
A police officer stands at a cordoned-off litter bin near the scene of the Wiltshire novichok poisoning.
CCTV footage shows novichok victim day before attack – video report
Science correspondent
Last modified on Fri 24 Aug 2018 07.20 EDT
The latest novichok case raises the question of whether the British couple Dawn Sturgess and Charlie Rowley were exposed to the same source of the nerve agent that poisoned the Russian former spy Sergei Skripal and his daughter Yulia in March.
There has been no official comment on this question, but it is scientifically plausible that the agent might persist for long enough, particularly if it was contained in some way.
Novichok is not a single chemical, but a family of nerve agent compounds that the Soviet Union developed in the 1970s and 80s from chemicals normally used for insecticides and other non-military purposes. Like sarin and mustard gas, their exact chemical structures and properties are considered classified in the UK, the US and other countries.
"How long they take to degrade is certainly not data that is publicly available, but from discussions with people at [the defence laboratory] Porton Down, I understand they are slow to degrade," said Alastair Hay, an environmental toxicologist at the University of Leeds who investigated the use of chemical weapons against Iraqi Kurds in Halabja in 1988. "This is one of the reasons the Skripals were unconscious for so long – it doesn't break down readily in the body."
Novichok chemicals left in the environment would degrade in two main ways: through hydrolysis – being broken down by water – and evaporation. Traditional nerve agents such as sarin are relatively susceptible to these processes. The fact that sarin evaporates quickly means people are rapidly exposed through breathing it in during a chemical attack.
Novichok agents are understood to evaporate far more slowly. "They've been deliberately designed by chemists to be more robust and hang around for longer," said Andrea Sella, a professor of inorganic chemistry at University College London.
The flip-side is that they pose a lower risk to people in the vicinity of a contaminated area. Hay said: "Direct contact is the most likely route of exposure."
The authorities are now engaged in an urgent and expanded cleanup operation. They will also be hunting for forensic evidence that might be relevant for both cases. Access to a bulk sample would give scientists far more information than what they have been able to ascertain so far from blood samples from the Skripals and trace samples from their front door.
"There's the feeling that there's a little crock of forensic gold out there," Sella said. "That would give them a real chemical fingerprint which would give you far more information."
This article was amended on 10 July 2018 because an earlier version referred to mustard gas as an organophosphate compound. This has been corrected.

Men's Issue
Manhoodv Schwannoma Could Disfigure a Handsome Penis
Beauty is just skin deep, but with regards to acquiring a handsome penis, which can be deep enough. Penis health is, clearly, a lot more important in comparison with looks in the member, however the handsome penis will elicit significantly more interest among partners especially among potential partners. Thus when something arrives that disrupts its appearance, it's really an obstacle having a man as well as the sex existence. This is often easily the issue with the design of men organ Schwannoma, that could result in a disfiguring make use of an effective penis.
Almost everyone has not discovered men organ Schwannoma, or in the Schwannoma regardless of the sort, with justification: it's pretty rare. But rare is small security in situation your guy is actually among individuals number of whose penis is location from the Schwannoma.
But what exactly is a Schwannoma anyway? To solve that, you should know just a little about nerves. Generally everybody recognizes that nerves would be the areas of the body which get stimuli – as being a touch, and send an e-mail for the mind, thus prompting an answer. (Your penis has especially sensitive nerves, and that's why why touching or fondling it so enjoyable.) every nerve within you offers what is known a nerve sheath, that's basically a layer of protective tissue which will keep the nerves safe.
When you have a Schwannoma, meaning the tumor is moving in negligence nerve sheaths. This happens only in nerve sheaths that are individuals from the peripheral central nervous system, and for that reason they're ultimately within the brain or even inside the spine-cord.
That sounds terrible, nevertheless the good factor is always that Schwannoma are benign tumors, not cancerous. But they may be supported getting a burning or stinging sensation or, alternatively, by numbness – neither being wanted within the penis.
And they also can disfigure a handsome penis because these tumors can every so often get quite large. A really small you can look like somewhat bump, but bigger ones may be several inches in space – difficult to ignore, even round the really big penis. Even if they're not causing discomfort once the penis reaches rest, they frequently occasions may become painful during sexual activity – then when too big, will make transmission impossible.
How to handle it
In situation your guy has what he thinks generally is a Schwannoma on his penis, he'll vacation in the doctor and get a powerful diagnosis. Be it determined the lump is Schwannoma, really the only treatment choice is surgical excision. Normally, this is not a genuine difficult surgery, and sometimes requires just a nearby anesthetic. There's, however, chance of nerve damage as detaching the Schwannoma could require impacting the nerve beneath the sheath.
When the tumor is extremely small land isn't causing discomfort or discomfort, the physician may recommend simply monitoring the lump. Although generally benign, if for reasons unknown a physician suspects it might be malignant, however, he then will recommend removal even if it's causing no physical problems.
Removing a Schwannoma may restore a handsome penis for the former condition, nonetheless still it needs it health labored with. Regular usage of a greater drawer penis health oil (doctors recommend Man 1 Man Oil, that's proven mild and safe for skin) might help. To be able to give you the penis optimal benefits, the bets oil contains numerous vitamins, along with a, B5, C, D and E. And it also helps when the oil contains L-carnitine, an amino acidity which supports with maintaining appropriate penis sensitivity.

Standardisation of a European measurement method for organic carbon and elemental carbon in ambient air
The European Committee for Standardisation (CEN) Technical Committee 264 'Air Quality' has recently produced a standard method for the measurements of organic carbon and elemental carbon in PM2.5 within its Working Group 35 in response to the requirements of European Directive 2008/50/EC. It is expected that this method will be used in future by all Member States making measurements of the carbonaceous content of PM2.5. This paper details the results of a laboratory and field measurement campaign and the statistical analysis performed to validate this method, assess its uncertainty and define its working range to provide clarity and confidence in the underpinning science for future users of the method.

Difference between Adaptor and Scaffold protein
What is the difference between and scaffold protein??

Difference between Adaptor and Scaffold proteins
Both of these types of proteins are involved in the signaling pathway.
Signaling pathway itself is the mechanism, or the process (name it however you like) in which a signal comes to the cell and triggers some ordered series of events (signaling pathway) which results in some changes in the cell. These changes are usually related to the gene expression or solute concentration (solute uptake, e.g.) which allows the cell to respond to the signal and adjust its metabolism to the current conditions in the environment.
Signaling pathway usually starts with the signal itself which binds to the receptor on the cell membrane which then transmits the signal inside through a number of different proteins. Basically, both adaptor and scaffold proteins are "located" in this group of proteins responsible for transmitting the signal from the receptor further down into the cell.
The main difference between them is in their function. They also differ in the structure, of course, but then again this is the case for any two different proteins so it is not worth mentioning. The role of scaffold proteins is to coordinate the signal transduction by "attracting" a number of different proteins needed in the signaling pathway. They basically form a complex of proteins by tethering other actors in the pathway, thus localizing them to a specific place, making the signal transduction more effective. Having this role, they can also regulate the signaling pathway (through positive and negative feedback signals) and they can isolate specific proteins (the right ones needed in the current active pathway) from other competitive proteins that are not wanted during that time.
Adaptor proteins, on the other hand, are smaller and they too help in the formation of protein complexes, but they do so by usually binding only two proteins. They accomplish this through specific domains (usually SH2 and SH3) which recognize specific amino acid sequences in the target protein.
One of the best examples for scaffold protein is MEKK1, which is present in the MAPK pathway (mitogen-activated protein kinase). This pathway is responsible for sending the signal further into the nucleus, regulating specific transcription factors responsible for the expression of proteins which affect the cell-cycle and cell differentiation.
Good example of adaptor protein is GRB2 (growth factor receptor-bound protein 2). It sends the signal further down by binding to the EGF receptor (epidermal growth factor receptor) with SH2 domain, and it attracts the next protein in the pathway (Sos protein in this case) with SH3 domains.
Hope this answers your question. Sorry if I have made the answer too long, but I like to start from the beginning, just in case if somebody else is searching for this, but lacks the basic knowledge needed to understand the subject.

These are the current rules around going on holiday in the UK - and when foreign trips could be allowed
Tuesday, 2nd June 2020, 4:18 pm
Updated Tuesday, 2nd June 2020, 4:18 pm
Overnight stays outside of your home are still not allowed (Photo: Shutterstock)
Across the UK, lockdown restrictions are gradually starting to ease, with people given more freedom to spend time outdoors and meet loved ones from a safe distance.
As freedom of movement becomes slightly more relaxed, many may be looking forward to the prospect of holidaying again, particularly given the current warm weather.
But are holidays allowed yet?
Can I go on holiday in the UK?
Since the UK government relaxed restrictions in May, people in England are allowed to travel to other destinations irrespective of distance.
However, people must not travel to destinations outside of England, as Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland are each following different government guidance.
Current rules state that day trips to an outdoor space are acceptable, providing you are able to return home on the same day.
As such, an overnight stay away from the place you are living for a holiday, or similar purpose, is not permitted. This includes staying overnight in a second home.
In circumstances where your job requires you to stay away from home, this is acceptable, providing social distancing is maintained.
Hotels and bed and breakfasts still remain closed, except when providing accommodation for specific reasons set out in law, such as for work.
What are the travel rules across the UK?
In Scotland, only recreational trips that are "broadly within five miles" from your home are allowed, and these should be done by walking or cycling wherever possible.
In Wales, people are still advised to stay at home as much as possible and while outdoor exercise can be done more than once per day, it must be done locally.
In Northern Ireland, driving for daily exercise is allowed, although day trips have not been specified in the government guidance.
Instead, people have been urged to "be sensible and limit the number of journeys" that they take.
Indoor gatherings of different households are still banned, but this is being kept under review.
When will holidays be allowed?
Culture secretary Oliver Dowden recently suggested that holidays in the UK could be permitted at the beginning of July, which could see rules change to allow overnight stays.
Self-catering cottages, Airbnb properties, campsites, hotels and holiday parks will still remain closed until at least July.
If the UK government believes enough progress has been made against its five key tests, England could move into phase three of lifting lockdown in July.
In this phase, other parts of the hospitality and leisure sector could be permitted to reopen, including hotels and holiday resorts. However, this phase is not expected to begin until 4 July.
When will foreign holidays be allowed?
Spain's tourism minister confirmed that foreign tourists can book holidays in the country from 1 July, with the mandatory 14 day quarantine rule for foreign tourists to be lifted from this point.
Jet2 will restart its flights and holidays from 1 July, along with Ryanair, while easyJet willresume a number of limited flights from 22 airports across the UK and Europe from 15 June.
The UK government has not yet confirmed when travel bans are likely to be lifted.

is a brand of different flavour sweets
, which have a hole in the centre. The peppermint
flavoured polo was first manufactured in the United Kingdom
in 1948. The name 'Polo' is reportedly from the word 'Polar' and is to symbolize the cool and fresh feeling one gets from sucking a Polo.
Polo mints were introduced by Rowntree in 1948, and Polo fruits followed soon after.
Polo is still Britain's number one mint brand with approximately 20 million mints produced every day and an average of one hundred and fifty Polos eaten every second.
Over the years Rowntree and Nestlé
have come up with variations of the Original Polo mint. Some of these have been successes, whereas others have flopped. However, none have been as successful as the Original Polo mint.
- Spearmint: These Polos have a strong spearmint flavour and aroma. The original design of the sweets had turquoise flecks on them, however now they are simply clear white to reduce E numbers.
- Fruit: These Polos are fruit flavored and come in several flavours, all in one tube. These Polos are not mints but boiled fruits. Flavours included are strawberry, blackberry, orange, lemon, and lime.
- Polo Gummies: Fruit-flavoured soft gummy sweets in the polo shape.
- Sugar free: This is the sugar free version of the Original Polo containing sorbitol
- Polo Holes: Nestlé experimented with this variation for a while. It was the original Polo flavour in the shape of the hole from the middle of the sweet.
- Mini Strong Polos: These were tiny Polos (about 1 cm in diameter) with a strong minty flavour. They were packaged in a box shaped like a Polo Mint. They were also available in a not so successful orange flavour which is no longer available
- Smoothies: These creamy sweets came in flavours such as blackcurrant, sunshine fruits and strawberry.
- Citrus: Lemon flavoured Polos
- Butter Mint Polos: These were butter mint flavoured
- Ice: These flavour Polos came in a shiny blue wrapper, and had a cooler mint taste.
- Cinnamon flavoured Polos
- Paan flavoured Polos (Previously available in India)
- Mint O Fruit: (available in Indonesia). These come in the following flavours: Raspberry Mint, Blackcurrant Mint, Peppermint, Lime Mint and Cherry Mint. These polos come with the following slogan "Think Plong! Masih Ada Bolong!" These are also sold in the UK in some Poundland stores.
Prior to this Rowntree had already experimented with different polos in the 1980s. The boiled fruit ones were always available but they briefly made:
- Lemon: Similar to the citrus flavour that Nestlé put out around 10 years later, but not identical.
- Orange: Similar to the lemon, but in an orange packet.
A Polo is approximately 1.9cm in diameter, 0.4cm deep and has a 0.8cm wide hole. The original Polo is white in colour with a hole in the middle, and the word 'POLO' embossed twice on one side around the ring, hence the popular slogan The Mint with the Hole
Ingredient of the main variety include: sugar, glucose syrup, modified starch, stearic acid (of vegetable origin), lubricant(570) and mint oils.
Packing and look
Polos are found in all major and minor newsagents, sweet shops, and supermarkets. They are usually sold separately in tubes that are about 10cm tall containing 25 Polos, but can be found in multi-packs ranging from 3 to 8. The tube of Polos is tightly wrapped with silver foil backed plastic. A green and blue paper wrapper, with the word 'POLO', binds the foil wrapper. The Os in 'Polo' are the images of the sweet. For the spearmint flavour, the paper wrapper is a darker green also the Extra Strong flavour is in a black paper wrapper.
In 1994 when the new Trade Marks Act was introduced in UK, Nestlé applied to register the shape of the Polo mint. The application featured a white, annular mint without any lettering. This application however was opposed by Kraft Food, the current owner of Life Savers
, and Mars UK because of the lack of distinctive character of the mint in question. Nestlé's application was allowed to proceed if it agreed to narrow the description of the mint i.e. the dimensions of the mint were limited to the standard dimensions of the Polo mint and that it was limited to 'mint flavoured compressed confectionery'.
Kraft Foods and Swizzels Matlow (owner of British Navy Sweets) have made similar applications for annular sweets bearing the mark LIFESAVERS or NAVY. Nestle has tried to oppose these trademark applications but have failed as the court ruled that customers would be able to distinguish between a Polo, a Lifesaver and a British Navy mint as all of them have their marks boldly and prominently embossed on the mint.
- "Polo, the mint with the hole"
- "The Mint,The Hole Mint and Nothing But The Mint!"
- "Holy Moly Minty!"
- "HOLE-Y REFRESHING"
- "Life's a Hole Lot Cooler!"
- "People Like Polo!"
Media & Entertainment
- Polo mints are mentioned in the song "Low Budget" by The Kinks. "We're all on our uppers were all going skint I used to smoke cigars but now I suck polo mints".
- The Polo mints are an important visual theme throughout the BBC Three comedy television programme The Mighty Boosh. They can be seen on many of the costumes and props (as well as in the opening graphics), and are directly referenced to on several occasions, most notably during the Hitcher's song ("creeping in your room in the dead of night / with my solo Polo vision" - the character of the Hitcher has a big Polo over one of his eyes.).
- A recent advertisement claims that Polos are now 13.063% mintier.
- Polo mint has become rhyming slang for skint(a slang term meaning to have no money) and for bint(slang for "woman").

Global consumers willing to pay more for British manufactured products
Sophie Chapman
2 min
Supply chain inefficiencies and miscommunication through "Chinese Whispers" are costing UK businesses over £1.5bn in lost productivity
A report released by Barclays Corporate Banking indicates that 39% of global consumers would be more likely to purchase products produced in the UK.
The report, dubbed Brand Britain: Export Opportunities for UK Businesses, notes that Asia and the Middle East are the most likely, conveying more interest in Brand Britain, and the association with quality.
Out of the 8,060 people surveyed, 67% Indian people, 62% people from the UAE, and 61% of Chinese people were more inclined.
The Barclays research also suggested that the dedication to British manufactured products was strongest with young people, with almost half (48%) said they would be more likely to purchase.
The majority of young people in China, between the ages of 25-34, were more interested in British made commodities, at 73%.
People with the over 55 age group, however, were less likely to be encouraged by British production, at only 24%.
The survey, which questioned people from eight markets – France, Germany, Republic of Ireland, India, China, UAE, the US, and South Africa – noted that food, fashion, and cars were the most popular products from the UK.
22% of consumers would be more willing to purchase food knowing it was from Britain.
Cars received 10% interest, with 9% of the group encouraged by British exported clothing, matching with 9% of people more likely to purchase British alcohol.

This Rulemaking Task (RMT) addresses the following issues:
- The turbine engine endurance test conditions that are required by the Certification Spefications for Engines (CS-E) are very hard, if not impossible, to achieve with modern engines.
- An initial maintenance inspection (IMI) test for turbine engines is required by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) regulations for many years, but not by the European (Joint Aviation Authorities (JAA) and European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA)) certification specifications (CSs).
- CS-E does not contain a specification for applicants to demonstrate the time between overhauls (TBO) interval. A safety recommendation on this matter was addressed to EASA.
The specific objective of this RMT is to modernise the engine certification test requirements to:
- upgrade the turbine engine endurance test specifications to take into account modern engine design characteristics;
- improve the level of confidence in the robustness of turbine engine designs prior to entry into service, as well as, in some cases, the definition of initial maintenance inspection (IMI) intervals;
- ensure that EASA exercises oversight of the IMI tests and benefits from the resulting knowledge;
- ensure the robust and harmonised substantiation of the TBO and of the maintenance programmes for piston engines; and
- ensure the greatest possible harmonisation with the related FAA regulations and certification policies.

Forestry Minister Michelle O'Neill has launched a new Tree Safety Management Practice Guide aimed at maintaining a safe environment for visitors to Forest Service woodland.
Publishing the document Minister O'Neill said: "Our forests are a vital community resource and recent research has indicated that there are approximately 4.7 million visits to Forest Service woodlands annually.
"We are publishing the Tree Safety Management Guide because we want to keep forest visitors informed about how they may be affected by our tree safety management activity. It is also a useful source of advice to other forest owners and managers with similar obligations."
The Minister added that tree safety management does not seek to eliminate risk but to reduce it to an acceptable level.
She said: "People enjoy trees in what they regard as 'natural' or 'unmanaged' places and will accept a degree of risk because of the value they bestow and the pleasure they derive from visiting or participating in leisure activities in our woodlands."

Meet Tribe With Most Beautiful Women in Africa, They Don't Bath Because Of What Will Happen to Them
There is a tribe from Angola which have the most beautiful village women in Africa according to tourists. The Himba tribe are the indigenous people of Namibia and Kunen, they live on the northern side of the country, and on the other side of the Kunene in southern Angola too. They have approximately 50,000 people in the village.
In this tribe, there are some other groups still residing in the village who are regarded as OvaTwa groups, they are called hunter-gatherers as well as OvaHimba.
The Himba Community speaks in Otjihimba language known as the Bantu dialect of Herero. Although English is the official language of Namibia but the Himba rarely speak in English, only small amount of English is used in their Omuhongan schools.
Both men and women from this tribe love wearing their traditional dresses. Men usually wear clothes and footwear sandals, they also wear with foot soles often found in old car tyres, because men and boys tend to lead cattles in the bushes all day long. However, the woman roam about the village with skirts made from goat skin.
They are most famous for their wives' natural beauty, attracting numerous tourists and journalists who have praised their amazing beauty.
Despite the fact that they don't bath with water it hasn't stop them from maintaining their natural beauty. One of the reasons why the people of Himba do not bath with water is because they live in one of the most extreme surroundings on earth.
The harsh weather condition and the desert climate, coupled with the lack of clean water prevents them from a 'normal' water bath.
Meanwhile, their refusal to take a bath did not affect their personal hygiene. Members of the tribe use red ochers on the skin and take part in a daily smoke bath to maintain their beauty and good hygiene.
What's your opinion about this beautiful tribe? let's hear your opinion

Short Questions and Answers
Question 1: Why did Hari Singh approach Anil?
Answer: Hari Singh was a thief who had not much luck in his work recently. So, he approached Anil with the intention of robbing him, as he seemed to be an easy-going and simple man. According to Hari, winning Anil's confidence was an easy task.
Question 2: 'Anil walked away. I followed casually.' Why do you think the narrator followed Anil?
Answer: The narrator's purpose of robbing Anil had not yet been served. He followed Anil to gain his trust and to look for an opportunity that may help him give shape to his plans. Though he was a thief so he wanted to be educated like him.
Question 3: Was Hari Singh successful in robbing Anil? Was Anil the only one who was robbed or did Hari also rob himself of something?
Answer: Yes, Hari Singh was successful in robbing Anil. But Anil was not the only one who was robbed at that time. Hari had robbed himself as well. He had lost the chance of receiving education and being literate.
He had robbed Anil monetarily but he had robbed himself of the chance for a better and brighter future, which was much more valuable.
Question 4: What did Anil and Hari agree upon to be the mode of payment?
Answer: When Anil started his inability to pay Hari, Anil questioned Hari if he could feed Hari. Hari realised that he had misjudged his target and moulded the situation for his benefit. Anil then agreed to feed him if he knew how to cook.
Question 5: What made Hari Singh go back to Anil's house?
Answer: Hari Singh realised the importance of education he was receiving from Anil. He knew that learning how to read and write and being a literate person would open doors to many opportunities. He was sure that he would then be able to earn more than a few hundred rupees he had in had at that time. This made him go back to Anil.
Question 6: Did Hari like working for Anil? Give reasons in support of your answers.
Answer: Yes, Hari liked working for Anil. He was happy to carry on the chores for him and was grateful for the education he was receiving. He used to make profit of about a rupee a day as well, which was a decent amount besides being fed.
Question 7: Why was it difficult for Hari to rob Anil?
Answer: It was difficult for Hari to rob Anil because Anil was the most trusting person Hari had ever met. He was really simple and kind. Hari knew that loss of money will not affect Anil but the loss of trust will make him sad.
Question 8: State the events that took place on the night of the theft?
Answer: After stealing Anil's money and leaving Anil's house, Hari went to the railway station but didn't board the train to Lucknow. He walked slowly through the bazaar as he did not know anyone who would provide him shelter except Anil, for he didn't have any friends. He was forced to take shelter under the clock tower later when it started raining heavily.
Question 9: How was the morning after the theft?
Answer: The morning after the night of the theft was just like a normal one. Hari woke up late and Anil had made tea by then. Anil gave a fifty rupee note to Hari and told him that he will now be paid regularly. Hari was aware that Anil knew about the theft but he didn't show anything.
Question 10: How you do think Anil may have come to know about the theft?
Answer: Anil may have come to know about the theft because of the dampness of the notes because of rain. He was a kind but wise man. It wouldn't have been difficult for Anil to make out the series of events that would have taken place in the night.
Question 11: Had Anil really forgiven Hari Singh? Support your answer with evidence
Answer: Yes, Anil had forgiven Hari Singh. It is evident because Anil handed over to Hari a fifty rupee note as soon as Hari woke up. Though he knew Hari had robbed the money at first but his subsequent action gave him hope of change in Hari's character.
Question 12: In which queer way did Anil make a living?
Answer: Anil made a living by writing for magazines which seemed queer for Hari, because the money was earned by fits and starts and not on a regular basis.
Long Questions and Answers
Question 1: Money can't make a man as much as education can. Elucidate the statement.
Answer: The statement stands true in almost all the aspects of life. Money may but us all the luxuries and fulfil our needs but it cannot buy us knowledge, civilised thinking, skill and abilities to achieve our dreams. Education lays the platform for all to act upon our goals according to our abilities. Education enables us to keep up with the fast-moving world. It opens the door to opportunities we do not know even exist. Money, on the other hand, can assist us to a certain level. It can buy us a plan but education gives us the knowledge of its execution. Just as in the story 'A Thief's Story'.
Hari Singh befriends the struggling author 'Anil', in the plans of making a steal. Anil, the author is a good fellow and wants to teach Hari Singh how to read and write. Gradually, he develops trust in Hari Singh. But Hari Singh has been waiting for the right moment to steal the valuables of Anil. After stealing money from Anil, Hari Singh tries to go away forever. But some inner voice stops him from doing so. He returned to Anil because he wants to live a life of respect. This shows that Hari Singh prioritised the chance of being literate over a few hundred rupees; we must understand that education can help us to achieve whatever we desire.
Question 2: Hari Singh didn't board the express and returned to Anil. Why did he return? On what values does this incidence put light on?
Answer: Hari Singh was a thief and he had stolen Anil's money. After the theft, he realised that he had robbed not only Anil but also himself of the chance of being literate and having a bright future. His conscience pricked him to think what all he could have got had he not done this. It was difficult for him to rob Anil but it was tougher for him not to back. He realised that he could not make tea, buy daily supplies and learn how to read and write then. His inner self did not agree to bypass this and forced him to return.
Hari's return to Anil shows that despite indulging in criminal acts, he still had a practical and positive attitude towards life. It is the awakening of Hari's conscience and Anil's love and care that reformed (changed) Hari's character. It teaches us that love alone can change a person. Anil's understanding nature and care changed Hari's thinking to mend his ways for good.
The whole incident clearly shows that it might be difficult to choose a path of honour and respect but the inner satisfaction and peace are the most valuable assets, we need in our life. When we realise the value of love, care and affection than the easy way of stealing money, we would prefer to choose the path of hard work and dedication. Here, in the story, we see that Hari Singh preferred the love and affection of Anil to the money he stole from him. As he realised that trust and care are more powerful than any other thing in life.

We describe the development of an analog very large scale integration (AVLSI) system for perceiving depth of a stationary object, termed the depth through motion parallax (DTMP) system. The system consists of an AVLSI smart focal plane array and an optical lens, with a laser system for the object. The DTMP integrated circuit is implemented using the AMI Semiconductor 1.5-µm process available through the MOSIS integrated circuit fabrication service. The DTMP chip and the lens are mounted on a single motion-controlled stage to mimic the human head and eye. The object is mounted on a different motion stage and is manually moved to different depths with respect to the lens. We report experimental results obtained for depth perception with the head being stationary and the object moving with a constant velocity that is geometrically equivalent to the object being stationary and the head moving with a constant velocity. Our results show that the transit time across the DTMP chip, which is equivalent to the perceived velocity, can be used to determine the depth of an object, and uses less than 2 mW of average power.

(Leaves; seed pods; flower. Photos E. Cousins)
Running Postman is a common, sun-loving ground cover around Cape Jervis. They like sandy soil, and are drought tolerant plants, so look for them off Flinders Drive, towards the Ferry Terminal. The wiry stems spread along the ground for up to 1.5 metres. Leaves occur in threes, and have wavy edges. The lovely red flowers occur singly or in pairs, in spring. Note the yellow spot at the centre. The seed pods are like long pea pods, but are dark red. They can be up to 5 cm long.

Taking food to and from the Pacific islands
It is very important to keep food safe while taking it between New Zealand and the Pacific Islands. Food is often shared so if it's not safe, it can make many people sick. Food can go bad and make people sick if it is kept warm for more than two hours. The total time of a trip, including time travelling to and from the airports at either end of the flight, time at the airports and during the flight is long enough for food to go very bad.


instant pot timer not starting
The Instant Pot Says On No Timer( What It Means And Solution)
When you get an instant pot, you get an appliance that can cook different food. That way, you save yourself from buying many appliances for cooking different food and end up saving some space in the kitchen.
The best part is the appliance is easy to use. But just like any other thing once in a while you may come across some challenges trying to operate it. An example, the timer may at times seem like it's not working, but at the same time the instant pot reads ON.
When this happens, you don't have to call a technician or start looking for the warranty card to take the pot back. These are some minor issues you can fix yourself without spending anything. This article is here to help you understand why they happen and how you can fix the issue.
Why is Your Instant Pot Timer Not Starting?
The instant pot is easy to use. It has direct functions with preset time. The operation required is minimum as compared to other appliances. If the timer is not starting it's probably something minor or, normally, it's just taking its time to start.
Gaining pressure
When using the pressure cooking function, after you put the food and close the lid, the pot will read 'ON'. But it takes a while to start the pot as it is first gaining pressure.
The process of gaining pressure is different with different foods. Some will gain pressure and start the timer fast, while others will take a lot of time to gain pressure. At this point, there is nothing much you can do as long as the food has water in it give it time as the timer will start with time.
Blown fuse
If the instant pot timer is not starting completely, it could be a blown fuse. Instant pots have an electronic fuse that helps in controlling the flow of current in the instant pot. When the current is high than required, the fuse cuts the current.
In case the fuse is malfunctioning, it may lead to the timer not starting. An example, it may interfere with the current going to the pot and supply less power and cause the timer not to start but the display reads ON.
In extreme cases, the timer may not start at all.
If this is the case, buy another fuse and replace the old one and your instant pot will work just fine. You can check on the manual on how you should go about replacing the fuse.
Not Plugged in Properly
In case the instant pot is not starting at all you should start by checking if the instant pot is plugged in and if yes, if it's plugged in properly.
Most instant pots come with a detachable cable. At times the cable may not be connected, and you don't know. So in case it's not starting, start by checking the connection to ensure it is connected.
The plug could also be loosely attached to the pot and hence not enough current getting to the instant pot system. At this point, the pot may read on, but the current getting in is not enough to start the timer.
Before starting an instant pot, ensure it is plugged in and tightly plugged to ensure it functions smoothly.
Not connected or a bad connection
Instant pots need electricity to function. If there is no power connection or the power connection is not smooth, the pot may not start or even start, but the timer may not function.
In case you experience such a problem, check the connection to see if it's smooth and uninterrupted. If that's the case, wait for the connection to get back and use the pot then.
The power flow is inconsistent
We all have experienced inconsistent power supply. One minute there is power the next there is no the next there is, but it comes in low voltage, and all the bulbs are dim.
When this is happening, not only the bulbs are affected, but appliances too are affected. An example, the instant pot may fail to start or start but not open the timer.
When this happens, all you can do is wait for the power to get back to its normal voltage to operate.
The water is taking time to heat
After you have filled the instant pot with food and water and closed the lid for pressure cooking, the next step is to start the pot for it to cook. But the timer doesn't go on immediately.
At this point, the display may be reading on, but the timer is yet to start. The pot is taking time to heat the water so it can produce the steam that helps in creating pressure in the pot that helps in the cooking process.
Confirm with the manual
If you have tried all the above and nothing seems to work, it's time to confirm with the manual. Check on the troubleshooting section to see if there is something that can help.
Instant pots are not exactly appliances and for that case don't require experts to help with the minor issues. After going through the manual, you may find something you can do to fix the pot and the timer.
Reset or restart the instant pot
When you are cooking two meals in a roll, you may need to reset the instant pot before cooking the next meal. This is because after cooking the first meal, the pot remains on the temperature and the time you had previously set.
All you need is to reset the instant pot, and the timer will work just fine and cook your food smoothly.
The setting is out
The setting on the instant pot could be out of order and thus causing the on but no timer issue. There have been many complaints about this. It could be someone who interfered with the settings unknowingly.
The solution is pressing the reset button on the instant pot, and the pot will work just fine. If you can't see the reset button as different models have different structuring, you can check on the manufacturing guide to see how you can restart the instant pot.
An instant pot takes around 10 to 15 minutes to reheat every time you are using the pressure cooking function. The time is for the pot to heat up and bring the pressure level up.
After that time, it is when the timer start. Every time you are cooking a meal that requires a 5 minutes timer, you should have in mind it will take more than that due to the time used in preheating.
Tips to have in mind when using an instant pot
Immediately you get your instant pot the first thing you should do is read the manufacturer's manual and ensure you understand it.
The instant pot comes with many different buttons that all perform different tasks. If you haven't read the manual, the buttons can be confusing, and the whole cooking process can get stressful and frustrating.
Pressure cooking uses water to produce steam which in return helps in raising the pressure levels in the pot that helps in the cooking process. This means, ensure you add water to the food no matter what you are cooking. At least add a cup and a half to the food to prevent burning the food.
Every time you are setting your cooking time with an instant pot, always add a few minutes to the cooking time as the pot takes time to preheat the pot and also takes time in releasing the steam naturally.
An instant pot tends to boil food so good. At some point, it can lead to overcooking of food. Due to this, ensure you set the exact right time. If it means releasing the steam manually do so as the time you take to release the steam naturally the cooking process is still happening just that it's a little bit slow.
Do not be afraid to explore with your instant pot, try a different recipe, and change temperatures and timing. That's how you come up with the best recipe and food. All you need is to be careful and don't try recipes that are prohibited like deep frying.
The convenience that comes with an instant pot is on the next level. But at the same time, you may experience some minor issues. The good part is you don't need to get someone else to fix the problems for you. You can do it yourself.
Using the information above, you can fix a timer to work. But in case the issue becomes major, and you are not sure you can handle the issue get an expert to avoid causing more damage.

Turning Packaging From Trash to Toys Turning Packaging From Trash to Toys
Turning Packaging From Trash to Toys
by Adele Peters
December 17, 2012
How can food packaging have a useful life after you've eaten whatever's inside? One solution, from a Greek design company, is to create a box that can easily be converted into a toy that kids want to keep.
Matadog Design needed to create a new brand for a snack company that sells small boxes of raisins. Initially, their assignment was to add a toy inside the package. They realized that if the box itself could become the toy, then they'd be able to eliminate waste.
As the designers studied paper toys, they discovered that most are somewhat complicated to construct—they usually require scissors and glue or tape, and a lot of time. After building countless models, they created a series of designs that are truly kid-friendly: they don't require any tools, and they're simple enough that kids can put them together by themselves.
The boxes come in 10 different designs, so kids will want to keep buying the snacks—and so they have a reason to keep more packaging out of the trash.

Homemaker Figures were the figures used to represent people within various Homemaker sets from 1974 through 1982. They are comprised of a head piece and one of several different types of hair pieces, with the rest of the body usually built from basic System bricks.
These figures came before the minifigures. The first minifigure was released four years later in 600 Police Car in 1978. After their introduction, minifigures were used together with Homemaker figures to represent a baby or a doll.
- Some hair parts (man, woman) can be assembled in two configurations because they have two front sides, enabling to change the hair dressing with the same part (turning it). This allows, with the same part, to have both the boy and the man hair dressing, or the girl and woman hair parts. Two examples are given below:
- The arms could be made of several lengths (1 or two) because they are made of several parts. This helps to recognize adults (double length) from kids (single length).
- The arm parts have been used later for other purposes, like for the arms of 6880 Surface Explorer or the 6822 Space Shuttle. In this new usage the arms have been replaced with grippers, for instance. The colors have moved from vivid colours (blue, yellow, red) for clothes to technical colours (grey, white) for arms and technical systems.
- The head has three attachments, two on the side (ears) one on the top. Hair pieces are fixed on the two hears, hats on the top.
