Author: Trout's Staff
When you ask somebody to tell you what comes to mind when you say "Colorado Fly Fishing", most people would mention 2 things: the Rocky Mountains and Trout. The reality is that fly fishing in this state is very closely associated with the resident trout (Rainbow, Brown, Brook, Cutbow and Cutthroat), and not the many other species that fill our local ponds, lakes, reservoirs and rivers. Yet every Fall, the Kokanee Salmon make their annual migration out of a few or our states reservoirs, and essentially goes from being a complete anomaly to fly anglers to being a highly sought after species. Yet there still remains a large number of fly anglers who are completely unaware of this species, particularly how much fun they can be to catch on a fly rod.
The Kokanee Salmon is essentially a land-locked Pacific Sockeye Salmon. These fish were first introduced to lakes and reservoirs in the interior US starting in the early 1900's, and these stocking programs continue today. Because they don't venture from saltwater to freshwater, Kokanee Salmon are much smaller than their androgynous brethren, and only get to be about 1lb – 3lb. It's also important to point out that except for a few exceptions, Kokanee don't ever successfully spawn. As a result, local fish and wildlife agencies have to do annual stockings to maintain adequate population numbers. Yet although these fish don't successfully spawn, it is during the spawning period where this species becomes accessible to fly anglers as they will seek out gravelly shore lines in reservoirs, or small tributary streams to swim up and "spawn". Just like any other salmon species, once they begin their spawn these fish stop eating and will eventually die.

Physical Description[edit]
Gerudo amid desert dunes, poised to strike.
Gerudo bear a strong resemblance to the more abundant hylian race. Gerudo however are of a uniformly darker skin tone, and always have red hair. Their eyes are usually golden, but are occasionally more exotic colors such as blue-green or violet. A typical female Gerudo stands over 6 feet tall. They are particularly muscular, but this may be more of a cultural difference than a physiological one, as gerudo prize athletes and warrior elites.
Perhaps the most characteristic aspect of gerudo, however, is that they are almost universally female.
Gender and Reproduction[edit]
The basic physiology, lifespan, and reproduction of gerudo is almost identical to that of hylians, with one major exception. A gerudo is almost never born male. Such a child is said to be less than one in a thousand, at most. When a male is born, reactions to him vary wildly from one town of gerudo to the next. In some places, he is heralded as a god-king that is destined to rule. In others, he is treated as a woman, and dresses in traditional female garb. In a few, a male gerudo is seen as a curse—and in these instances, the child is seldom allowed to live.
Regardless of the circumstances, the entire race does not depend on these few sparse males for reproduction. Rather, the gerudo race as a whole has become dependent on the males of the hylian race, as the two are capable of interbreeding. In these instances, little if any of the male's genetic material is incorporated into the child the gerudo herself births.
The exact circumstances of the father vary widely. It is often the result of unwilling copulation, but other times the result of a more traditional union and partnership. In any case, the child is considered gerudo herself by wider society, and usually raised as such. The tan skin, red hair, and golden eyes make it difficult for a gerudo child to fit in as if she were a hylian.
History and Society[edit]
It is widely believed that gerudo were once a race as widespread and prosperous as hylians, if not more so. Ruins of their kingdom are spread widely throughout the Gerudo Desert, named after them. Although gerudo persevere, their numbers have been gradually declining for millennia. This is believed to be the result of the race's odd gender imbalance, which makes procreation for them even more difficult.
All that remains today are a few small outposts of gerudo, most of whom live traditional gerudo lives in the shadows of their ancestors. Many of these outposts survive as organized thieves or pirates. A sparse few have interwoven themselves in the societies of other races. The eponymous Gerudo Town, a village built on an oasis in the depths of the Gerudo Province in Hyrule, is perhaps the last upstanding bastion of traditional gerudo culture.
The proudest of gerudo believe that an unjust curse befell their race in an age long past—that this curse is the reason their race is so imbalanced, and the cause behind their dwindling numbers. The purported reasoning, cause, effects, and origin of this supposed curse vary. Belief in this curse is somewhat controversial, as even though there are historical references to it, there is little solid evidence to support it.
Ganon, in his humanoid form, was said to take the form of a male gerudo. Whereas most moblins praise what little connection to Ganon they have, this attitude is rare among gerudo. For them, the creature's wanton evil and spreading of chaos is usually seen as shameful. Most gerudo, but not all, prefer to distance themselves from such a beast.

Tougher legislation needed on hate crimes
May 21, 2010
....Here in Canada, the gravity of hate crimes was officially recognized in 1970, when the government amended the Criminal Code to include hate propaganda as a punishable offence.
In 1996, the government also introduced enhanced sentencing provisions for offences motivated by hate, and in 2001 included mischief to religious property as a specific hate-motivated offence.
Despite this evolution, we argue that these legislative responses to hate have not gone far enough. The problem most concerning to many diverse communities and law enforcement officials involves the fact that there are still no direct provisions in the Criminal Code to identify hate crime as a violent offence (such as assault) or as a crime against a person or individual property (such as vandalism).
....In Canada, the Supreme Court has ruled that individuals have the right to hold discriminatory beliefs; however, they do not have the right to act upon them in public space. This is the difference between belief (freedom of conscience and speech) and conduct (freedom to act in discriminatory ways).
....Hate is a learned behaviour, which divides families and communities. Rather than let hate divide us, we call for communities to stand united against hate and announce that it is not a value that will be tolerated in the province of Alberta. After all, hate imprisons everyone: the victim, perpetrator, and community.
To help achieve this vision of a hate-free Alberta, we call on the province to develop a strategy against hate. It should include:
- Directed advocacy to include specific provisions within the Criminal Code of Canada for hate crime offences;
- Development of a standardized definition and response to hate crime;
- Mandatory reporting of hate crime statistics by all law enforcement agencies;
- Support for restorative justice and innovative educational programs (punish the problem, not the people);
- Creation of a provincial hate crimes office to help with investigation, training, public education, and support for victimized communities.

Ottawa Public Health (OPH) has upgraded to a Frostbite Warning to ensure people take appropriate precautions before going outside and to encourage homeless people to seek indoor shelter from the cold.
A Frostbite Warning is issued when a wind chill of -35 or colder is forecast by Environment and Climate Change Canada for the Ottawa area. With a wind chill of -35 or colder, exposed skin can freeze in less than ten minutes. There is also an increased risk of hypothermia for people who stay outside for long periods of time without adequate protection. Overexposure can result in severe injury and even death. OPH recommends that you wear several layers of clothing to keep warm and make sure that the outer layer protects you from wind and moisture.
Frostbite results when the skin and underlying tissues freeze. Skin is white and waxy and feels hard to the touch. Frostbite is a serious condition that can require amputation. Medical attention is advised. Frostnip is a mild form of frostbite where only the skin freezes. Both frostbite and frostnip can be treated by gradually warming skin using body heat or warm water. Never rub or massage affected areas.
Infants, children, the elderly, people with certain chronic illnesses such as poor circulation and heart disease, and the homeless are particularly vulnerable to cold weather. Service providers to these groups including schools, daycares, emergency shelters and outdoor sporting programs should assess and adjust their programming to prevent cold injuries. There are many services available to help the homeless:
- Emergency sleeping spaces in Ottawa shelters,
- Street outreach services to encourage homeless people to come in from the cold, and
- Provision of emergency transportation and other services by the Salvation Army.
To seek assistance for a homeless person, concerned citizens are encouraged to call: 3-1-1. Calls are answered by the City of Ottawa Call Centre on a priority basis and referrals are made to the appropriate services.
For more information on frostbite, hypothermia and cold weather precautions visit OttawaPublicHealth.ca or call _PHONE_ (TTY: _PHONE_).

Key Methods for Identifying Hospital Staff
healthcare workers
In hospitals and other healthcare organisations, it's vital that patients are able to identify members of staff. It's also necessary for staff members to be able to identify each other and their roles. Different methods can be used to identify staff so that the people who need to know who they are can easily recognize them. Employees can use lots of visual cues that tell people about their role, their name, and which hospital they work for. These are some of the ways you can make sure your staff members are easily recognizable to anyone who needs to know who they are.
Uniforms are a great way to identify the staff in a hospital and to distinguish between people working in different roles. They are essential in hospitals for hygiene purposes, but they also serve an important purpose when it comes to making employees recognizable and trustworthy. Different uniforms help your staff to see who works in what role, and this can also be useful for patients, especially those who are staying long-term. Using different colors, patterns, and designs for different roles is helpful. You might also have logos or extra information printed or embroidered onto uniforms to provide further help.
Name Badges
It's not just roles that are important for patients and staff members to know. People should also be able to identify employees at a hospital by name. Name badges are an easy way to do this, putting names and roles in a visible place. Name badges should be easy to clean so that they can be wiped clean regularly. They might not always be appropriate to wear, but it depends on the environment and the duties of the person. Although name badges can be a quick way to identify someone, they shouldn't replace employees introducing themselves.
Official ID for Security
Security is another reason staff members may need to identify themselves. They will need to show identification when they enter the hospital and will likely need to use it to access certain areas of the hospital. When you provide ID for hospital staff, you also need to offer solutions for carrying and displaying it. A lanyard can make it easy for a member of staff to have their ID visible at all times. Some people might prefer to pin or clip their IDs to their clothing instead, especially if they don't want to have something hanging around their neck.
Identifying Information
It can also be useful to provide information that helps patients to identify staff members. This could include providing materials that tell them how to identify people in different roles. You can provide them with a guide to what doctors, nurses, and other members of staff wear. It's also helpful to explain what different roles mean. It's not very useful for a patient to know which uniform a phlebotomist wears if they don't know what a phlebotomist does.
Help your patients to identify hospital staff and your employees to identify each other by providing visual cues and useful information.

Chronic Pain: How To Regain Control Over Your Life Naturally
Chronic pain is estimated to affect over 50 million Americans and is becoming an even more popular condition. Due to our lifestyles, posture, exercise level, and diet, an increasing number of people have started to suffer from chronic pain. In some cases, pain can be minimal and only represent a minor inconvenience. However, in some other cases, chronic pain can take over your life and be so overwhelming that it might prevent you from enjoying even the easiest daily tasks. Depending on the cause behind it, chronic pain can develop from mild to severe. Therefore, while there is no definitive cure, chronic pain needs to be addressed. Here are five non-invasive ways to find chronic pain relief naturally.
Understand the Underlying Causes
Firstly, it is crucial to understand what are the causes behind your chronic pain. You might have been the victim of an accident, or you might have reported injuries that haven't healed. Alternatively, an inactive lifestyle and bad posture can also lead to lower back, sciatica, and leg pain.
In some cases, some chronic diseases such as cancer and arthritis might be the cause behind the pain. Before trying to find a solution for your pain, it is crucial to understand what is the underlying cause. This will help you avoid unnecessary painkillers and move towards a longer-lasting solution.
Use Meditation and Breathing Techniques
One of the main factors that can worsen your chronic pain is stress. Indeed, stress causes damage to cells and leads to increased free radicals. In turn, these can worsen inflammation and prevent your body from healing.
Breathing techniques and meditation are mindfulness practices that allow you to focus on your breath, repeat a mantra, or focus your attention inward. This can allow you to avoid additional stress and reduce inflammation.
Aim To Move Your Body Regularly
Regular exercise is essential to allow your body to release endorphins – the happiness hormone! These compounds are the ones responsible for the famous "runner's high" and act as mood regulators. In turn, this can reduce stress levels and allow you to feel more balanced. Exercise is also essential to help you get rid of any extra weight you might be carrying. By doing so, you can lighten up your body, which takes pressure away from your muscles, joints, and bones. And of course, it can help you reduce the risk of conditions such as heart disease.
Consider a Plant-Based Lifestyle
Studies have proven that whole grain, plant-based lifestyle can reduce fatigue and chronic pain. Indeed, fruits and vegetables are famously filled with the antioxidants your body needs to reduce inflammation and the damaging effects of free radicals. Speaking to your nutritionist allows you to get started in the right way.
Try Medical Marijuana
Medical marijuana has been seen to help with certain kinds of chronic pain. If you are affected by severe chronic pain which is impacting your life, or you have an underlying condition such as arthritis or cancer, you might be able to obtain a medical marijuana card. You can learn all about Harvest House of Cannabis and how to apply for a medical card here.

Unconventional Ways to Boost Your Health
With health tips and diets around every corner, it can be hard to know what the best course is going to be for your body. Between fad diets and finding the best workout gear, it can be overwhelming. Finding the specific rhythm to support what your body needs is going to be a lifelong journey, but there are things that you can do to get off to a good start.
Establish a Baseline
In order to know what specific health goals you need to have, you first need to establish a baseline. It is important to start with the basics and make sure that you are making generally healthy choices before you can start getting more specific.
Even though each person is different and will require different health goals, there are some things that are in common across all bodies. You need to be getting enough sleep. Not getting enough sleep can mess with your health in surprising ways. You also need to be drinking enough water each day. Most people are not drinking enough water. Being dehydrated can cause you to overeat and to be fatigued during the day. You may be surprised to see how just changing your sleep and water intake patterns can give you an extra boost.
You should also make healthy eating choices and try to get some exercise. If you are just starting on your wellness journey, then you should take small steps. If you try to take on too much at once, you will likely not be able to sustain the change.
You can start by adding more vegetables to your meals instead of trying to change what you eat. Even if you continue to eat like normal, but add in more vegetables, you will eventually be able to change your diet more drastically. You can also try switching to only drinking water instead of any other kind of beverage with your meals. This will also help with your water intake.
For exercise, you don't have to go running, even though that is probably what pops into your head first. You can start by just doing stretches before bed or going for a walk during your lunch break. Start where you are and then build on that.
Talk to Your Doctor
You should make sure that you go to your regular checkups with your doctor. If you have concerns about specific health issues, then discuss them with your doctor. If you are looking for advice in general, you can ask what their biggest concerns are and where your focus should be for improvements. They have insights into your health that can help you on your path to wellness.
Environment Changes
There may be changes you need to make to your environment in order to be functioning at one hundred percent. You should have your home tested for toxins and hazardous gases to make sure that you are not breathing in anything that may be harmful to you. You may also want to be asking questions like, What is the Safe Distance From Wifi Router? Or, does my electrical wiring need to be updated. Making these changes can improve your health if there is something happening that shouldn't be happening. You may be surprised to find out how your health can change when these silent issues get resolved.

Mean squared normalized error performance function
To use mean squared error with deep learning, use regressionLayer, or use the dlarray method mse.
perf = mse(net,t,y,ew) takes a neural network, net, a matrix or cell array of targets, t, a matrix or cell array of outputs, y, and error weights, ew, and returns the mean squared error.
This function has two optional parameters, which are associated with networks whose net.trainFcn is set to this function:
 -'regularization' can be set to any value between 0 and 1. The greater the regularization value, the more squared weights and biases are included in the performance calculation relative to errors. The default is 0, corresponding to no regularization.
 - 'normalization' can be set to 'none' (the default);'standard', which normalizes errors between -2 and 2, corresponding to normalizing outputs and targets between -1 and 1; and 'percent', which normalizes errors between -1 and 1. This feature is useful for networks with multi-element outputs. It ensures that the relative accuracy of output elements with differing target value ranges are treated as equally important, instead of prioritizing the relative accuracy of the output element with the largest target value range.
You can create a standard network that uses mse with feedforwardnet or cascadeforwardnet. To prepare a custom network to be trained with mse, set net.performFcn to'mse'. This automatically sets net.performParam to a structure with the default optional parameter values.
mse is a network performance function. It measures the network's performance according to the mean of squared errors.
collapse all
This example shows shows how to train a neural network using the mse performance function.
Here a two-layer feedforward network is created and trained to estimate body fat percentage using the mse performance function and a regularization value of 0.01.
[x, t] = bodyfat_dataset;
net = feedforwardnet(10);
net.performParam.regularization = 0.01;
MSE is the default performance function for feedforwardnet.
ans =
Train the network and evaluate performance.
net = train(net, x, t);
y = net(x);
perf = perform(net, t, y)
perf = 20.7769
Alternatively, you can call mse directly.
perf = mse(net, t, y,'regularization', 0.01)
perf = 20.7769
Input Arguments

Robert Lansing (1915–1920): Secretary of State
Robert Lansing was born on October 17, 1864, in Watertown, New York. He attended Amherst College, graduating in 1886, before becoming a lawyer in his father's practice.
Lansing entered the world of diplomacy when his father-in-law, Secretary of State John Foster, brought him along to the Bering Sea Fur Seal Arbitration; Lansing himself would serve as private counsel for the Chinese and Mexican diplomatic delegations. In 1906, Lansing founded the American Society of International Law. and with it, the American Journal of International Law. Four years later, and despite Lansing's affiliation with the Democratic Party, President William Howard Taft named him U.S. counsel for the North Atlantic Coast Fisheries Arbitration Panel at The Hague.
Having been appointed counselor to the Department of State by President Woodrow Wilson in 1914, Lansing took over as secretary of state in June 1915 following the resignation of William Jennings Bryan. Though he was cut out of negotiations involving the House-Grey memorandum, Lansing would be involved in various initiatives, including interventions in Haiti, the Dominican Republic, and Russia. Wilson asked for his resignation following Lansing's convocation of a cabinet meeting -- without Wilson's approval -- during the period in which Edith Wilson presided over her husband's affairs.
Lansing left the cabinet on February 13, 1920. Thereafter, he would write two books: The Peace Negotiations: A Personal Memoir, and The Big Four and Others of the Peace Conference. Robert Lansing died in Washington, D.C., on October 30, 1928.

PreviousFileshare on UNIX Error HandlingNext
Chapter 8: Communications
The Fileshare Client(s) and Fileshare Server(s) communicate using the Common Communications Interface (CCI).
8.1 Overview
A Fileshare Server can use several communication protocols concurrently, enabling it to communicate with a number of Fileshare Clients that do not all use the same protocol.
When you invoke a Fileshare Server, you need to specify the communications protocols it supports, using the /cm option in the Fileshare configuration file. Valid values for /cm are:
When running the Fileshare Server and Fileshare Client on the same UNIX machine, use the Named Pipes protocol for UNIX (CCINAMPU) as this provides significantly better performance than CCITCP.
8.2 Using CCITCP
Fileshare defaults to the TCP/IP (CCITCP) protocol. When using CCITCP, you can use either CCITCP Direct or the following process:
For details of TCP/IP, please refer to:
For details of CCITCP Direct, please refer to your online book:
8.3 CCI Trace
CCI Trace enables all the messages sent by CCI to be logged to a file. This can help in tracking down and debugging problems related to communications. To activate CCI Trace, add the following to the Fileshare Server configuration file:
/tr cci
To prevent unauthorized access to the CCI Trace information, you are prompted for the supervisor password when you invoke a Fileshare Server with CCI Trace enabled. If the password is accepted, CCI Trace is enabled and a second prompt asks if CCI Trace should be activated immediately or not.
Note: The supervisor password is that specified for the user-ID FSVIEW in the password file, so you must specify the appropriate password file when you start the Fileshare Server.
CCI Trace can be toggled on and off using the F3 key.
The CCI trace options are specified via the CCITRACE environment variable.
8.4 CCI Timeout
By default, CCI waits 120 seconds for a network request to complete before it times it out and returns an error. If a network request has not completed in a period much shorter than this, it can usually be assumed that it is unnecessary to wait any longer. For example, if a Fileshare Server with the correct server-name is not active when a Fileshare Client attempts its first open, the application appears to hang for 120 seconds before a 9/124 status is returned because the server cannot be contacted. See the section Communications Errors in the chapter Error Handling for more details.
You can configure the Fileshare Client to use a shorter timeout period by using the /ct option in the client configuration file, fhredir.cfg. The timeout period is specified in 1/10th seconds.
For example:
/ct 300

Is "Jesus Christ"
a good Jewish name?
by John J. Parsons
Jesus Christ
The most important ancient translation of the Torah is the "Translation of the Seventy" (also known as the Septuagint or LXX), which was originally produced by 70 Jewish translators for Greek-speaking Jews in Egypt during the 3rd-2nd centuries B.C.
 Targum Hashiv'im - "The Translation of the Seventy" (Septuagint or LXX). The title "Seventy" refers to the tradition that the translation was the work of 70 separate Jewish translators.
Targum Hashiv'im Fragment
Although the Septuagint is useful for doing certain types of biblical research, it is a translation of the Masoretic Text and therefore should not be given linguistic priority over the original Hebrew. That being said, the Septuagint provides insight about the usage of Hebraic concepts as translated into the Greek for Jews of that time.
For example, consider the word "Christ." This word comes from "christos" (χριστός) the Greek equivalent of the Hebrew term "Messiah" (הַמָּשִׁיחַ). Both words literally mean "Anointed One."
If you were to perform a word search in the Septuagint for the words "christos" (χριστός) and "christan" (χριστὸν) - the nominative and accusative singular of christos (Christ), respectively (there are other references in the genitive case and as participles, but these are sufficient), you will find the following references:
For example:
Lam 4:20 LXX and TNK
"The breath of our life, the LORD's anointed...." (Lamentations 4:20)
In light of this, we have textual evidence, that Greek-speaking Jews before the advent of Jesus referred to the Messiah as christos - that is, as "Christ." And later, in Hellenistic Greece during the time of Jesus, when some Jews came to believe that they had found the Messiah, they naturally would refer to him as ho christos (ὁ Χριστός) - "the Christ."
Nu? So what?
My point here is simple. "Christ" is a good Jewish designation for the term "Messiah." I raise this issue merely to demonstrate to those who are caught up in the "Sacred Name" movement or to those who feel it is necessary to refer to the "Messiah" and disparage the use of the word "Christ" that there is no need to be pedantic in this regard: "Christ" means "Anointed One" in exactly the same way that the word "mashiach" (מָשִׁיחַ) does.
What about the name "Jesus"?
Now what about the name "Jesus"? Do we have a transliteration problem here? Are we missing some important linguistic information? Need we get fussy about this and insist on referring to the Lord as "Yeshua" (or some variant) and drop the name "Jesus"?
The Hebrew name Yeshua (יֵשׁוּעַ) comes from Joshua's Hebrew name, Yehoshua (יְהוֹשֻׁעַ) which sometimes appears in its shortened form, Yeshua (e.g., 1 Chron. 24:11; Neh. 8:17). Now Yeshua, when transliterated into Greek, comes out as ᾽Ιησοῦς (pronounced YAY-soos), with the final sigma (ς) being necessary in the nominative case to designate a proper name. In Latin the name is rendered as IESUS, though in old English, the "y" sound was rendered as "j," and thus we obtain "JESUS":
Getting to the name Jesus
To quibble that Yeshua's name was incorrectly transliterated is like complaining that the Jews are called "Jews," rather than the more precise term "Yehudi," a word that was likewise transliterated from the Greek Ioudaios (᾽Ιουδαῖος) and ultimately into the English word "Judean." In like manner we shouldn't speak about Judaism but perhaps should call it "Yoodaism"?
Nu, So what?
The so-called "Sacred Name" movement that purports that the "true name" of the Messiah is "YAHushua" or "YAHoshua" (or some variant thereof) is founded on faulty linguistics and esoteric doctrine. These people think that the sacred Name (YHVH) is best rendered as YAHWEH, and suppose that since Jesus said He came in His Father's Name (John 5:43), YAH (יָהּ) must somehow appear in the spelling of this name. Hence we have YAHshua, or YAHoshua, or some other unsubstantiated and aberrant spelling.
As a matter of grammatical fact, the interpolation of the phoneme YAH comes at the expense of the original Masoretic text and standard Hebrew usage. Some in this "sacred name" movement go so far as to believe that you can only be saved if you pronounce the Name YHVH correctly! As a friend of mine pointed out, this teaching is inherently anti-semitic, since in order for this to be true, the "rabbis" must have corrupted the text and deceived the people. Moreover, this implies that Greek New Testament text has been corrupted as well, since it does not directly contain the sacred name....
The Name above All Names
According to the late Dr. David Flusser, Professor of Early Christianity and Judaism of the Second Temple Period at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, "Yeshua" was the third most popular male name during the Second Temple period. I think that is surely appropriate, since Jesus "came in disguise" - without announcing his greatness - not unlike King Solomon who secretly wooed the Shulamite woman... Ultimately the Messiah was born to die as a criminal on the cross, not to sit in velveted chairs before the religious world. The Name YAH is surely a valid Biblical Name, though it refers to YHVH (יהוה) and it is understood in light of God's redemptive power and saving acts. Yeshua - short for Yehoshua - therefore means "YHVH saves." The name Yehoshua - like the name Judah (יְהוּדָה) before it - explicitly uses YHVH as an embedded morpheme. In this connection I might add that it was Yehoshua who was chosen by God to take Israel into the realm of promise, not Moses.
My point here is simple. Let's not get so hung up on our pronunciation of Hebrew terms that we become linguistic snobs -- or worse -- gnostics! For those raised with the Latin-based alphabet in English speaking countries, "Jesus Christ" is an adequate title for the Savior and LORD, though it should also be understood to refer to His status and role as the anointed King of Israel and the world...
The Scriptures speak of the "Name above all Names" and apply it directly to the Yeshua our Savior: " the Name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is LORD (i.e., Yeshua is YHVH) to the glory of God the Father (Phil. 2:9-11).
Shalom to you... and may "the Lord Jesus Christ" bless you.

I. Freedom through Faith and Knowledge
The Black church and other faith assemblies have been at the core of the freedom movement since the mid 1800′s. Church provided opportunities to gather, and congregations throughout Orange County, black and white, have inspired and perpetuated the freedom movement. Schools for African-American children, often connected with churches, also were part of the freedom movement, beginning in the late 1800′s, in the midst of a segregated society. In 1968, Orange County schools became fully integrated.

Teledyne LeCroy claims to be the only provider of CAN FD measurement and graphing capabilities, and was the first to provide a trigger and decode solution for CAN FD. CAN and CAN FD Symbolic analysis packages allow a user-defined.dbc file to be used for Symbolic triggering, decoding, measurements, and graphing of a CAN or CAN FD bus. This creates a more user-friendly environment for CAN developers to work in and removes the need for a manual lookup or conversion from the typical hexadecimal or binary format. All Teledyne LeCroy CAN FD trigger and decode packages support both ISO and non-ISO frames per the ISO 11898-1 standard.
The ability to perform analysis directly on the Symbolic layer will greatly increase efficiency when working with Teledyne LeCroy's CAN toolset. When debugging using the oscilloscope to trigger on the Symbolic layer, it is simple to isolate a particular troublesome sequence of events by triggering on a specific message or range of values for a given message. The CAN and CAN FD decoders create an intuitive colour-coded overlay directly on top of the physical layer waveform helping to identify the different sections of the frame and rapidly flag any errors. Teledyne LeCroy offers the unique ability to take CAN and CAN FD analysis to the next level by using the.dbc file to extract the encoded values to perform precise timing measurements which correlate to specific occurrences on the bus. Furthermore, these extracted values can be plotted to provide a visual representation of how behaviour is changing over time. The combination of these tools provide new levels of insight into CAN systems, correlating physical layer signals and protocol layer data on a single display while also measuring and plotting bus performance.
Teledyne LeCroy also offers the ability to decode four buses simultaneously. These four buses can be a combination of any protocols, including CAN FD and classic CAN at the same time. Decoded

Full Answer
Hair shafts protect the skin in a variety of ways. For example, the hair on the top of a person's head serves to protect the skull from excessive heat and cold. Hair shafts provide warnings in some instances. If an insect alights on a person's body, the individual often feels the presence of the insect due to the tingling of a hair shaft. Hair shafts in the form of eyelashes help to protect our eyes as well.

Researchers seeking to redefine difference between solids and liquids
(Phys.org) —Charles Radin a mathematical physicist with the University of Texas and one of his former student's David Aristoff, have built a 2D model material made of disks to represent atoms. In their article published in Notices of the American Mathematical Society, they suggest that their model shows that defining the difference between a solid and a liquid should be more a matter of measuring the way a material responds to shear, than looking at the way its atoms are arranged.
For most people, the difference between a solid and liquid is easy to discern—liquids move, they flow, they take the shape of whatever they are put in. Solids on the other hand, are rigid and don't slosh around. For physicists however, things are not quite so simple, especially since 1984 when Dan Shechtman discovered what are now known as quasicrystals (for which he won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 2011)—materials that appear rigid but upon closer inspection reveal a non-repeating pattern in the arrangement of their atoms. Thus, they're neither liquid nor solid according to the traditional definition (solids are supposed to be arranged in a crystal lattice), which muddles the very definition of the state of matter. Because of that, physicists and mathematicians have been looking for a new way to clearly differentiate between a solid and a liquid.
Radin and Aristoff suggest that measuring shear in a material is the way to go. In physics, shear is witnessed as a body part being deformed and can be expressed mathematically as the sidewise displacement between two points in parallel planes divided by the distance between those planes. In building their model, they found that at low densities, materials show no response to shear, but as the atoms move closer to one another and eventually become densely packed together, they do show shear, and also tend to result in expansion of the material. It's where it crosses over, the two say, that the definition of solid versus liquid resides.
Another team, this one in France, has another idea—they say matter can be defined as solid or liquid by measuring its viscosity, or ability to flow. They note that glass actually flows, very slowly of course, and so does diamond, though they note researchers would have to measure it over the course of the age of universe to see it flow due to Earth's gravity.
In either case, redefining what constitutes the different states of matter is important because without clear terminology, material descriptions can lose their meaning.

This comic follows the efforts of a male cricket as he tries to attract a mate, and in the process, debunks common myths about what it means to be evolutionarily "fit."
UC Museum of Paleontology
Use the questions at the end of the comic to stimulate class discussion on the concept of fitness.
- There is a fit between organisms and their environments, though not always a perfect fit.
- Traits that confer an advantage may persist in the population and are called adaptations.
- Inherited characteristics affect the likelihood of an organism's survival and reproduction.
- Over time, the proportion of individuals with advantageous characteristics may increase (and the proportion with disadvantageous characteristics may decrease) due to their likelihood of surviving and reproducing.
- Evolution does not consist of progress in any particular direction.
- Fitness is reproductive success - the number of viable offspring produced by an individual in comparison to other individuals in a population/species.

a Pokemon can't learn two of it's two of it's egg moves. For example, Charmander can't learn AncientPower and Beat Up together, because no Pokemon learns these two moves, and there's no Pokemon that can connect these two moves together like Arbok did just now.
It's worth noting that all this chain breeding isn't needed in the Field egg group, where Smeargle is, simply because Smeargle can learn any move (through it's signature move Sketch). So that also means that there's no such thing as an illegal move combination in the Field egg group.
Hatching an Egg
Hatching an egg can take a really long time depending on the Pokemon that's inside. Actually, it doesn't depend on time, but the amount of steps you take. It could take between 1,000-10,000 steps to hatch an egg. If you have a Pokemon with the Magma Armor or Flame Body Abilities in your party, the amount of steps will be cut in half. You can ride your bicycle in a circle or up and down the same route until the egg hatches, or just take it with you on your adventure. Check the egg's status screen to get hints as to how long it'll take to hatch.

They resist a 16 bar nominal pressure in water pipes and a 10 bar nominal pressure in gas pipes. In the market, there are electrowelding quick fitting of PN 25 bar. They usually are black or blue for water and black and yellow for gas and they are welded with a tension that varies from 8 to 42 volts according to the model although the most usual tension and which is more used nowadays by the manufacturers is 40 volts. The input of the welding data (voltage and fusion time) in the electrofusion machine, can be performed with manual machines or with machines whose fitting data are registered by reading its bar code through a light pen or scanner.
The welding fittings are provided with labels or magnetic cards in which there are bar codes where all the relevant information of the product appears there like fusion data. We will indicate below some steps to perform the electrofusion.
Step 1: Preparation
During the transport, handling and laying of the PE pipes they could be damaged if it you are not careful enough. It is allowed cuts and lines no higher than 10% of the thickness of the wall in water pipes and 5% in gas pipes. Clean the joining area of the pipe with a cloth or paper towel that doesn't leave dirt.
Step 2: Scrap
To secure a good joint, the area of the surface of the pipe to be welded must be scraped to eliminate impurities, dirt, grease, etc. that could contaminate the welding. The length to be scraped must be marked with a felt tip and it must be used a rotary scraper. For tapping saddles, it can be used a manual scraper.
46bDon't touch the scraped surface!
Step 3: Aligners
The MOST important part of the electrofusion process, is making sure that the pipes have not movement and be aligned during the heating and cooling phases. If the pipe moves during the cooling phase, the formed joint will fail. The aligners help to perform a good joint, avoiding the movement of the pipes.

"Paul, a bondservant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, separated to the gospel of God" (Romans 1:1)
The word here translated bondservant is actually the word slave (doulos). It is a strong word, carrying the following meanings:
- It refers to one born into slavery.
- It refers to one who is in a relation to another which only death can break
- It refers to one whose will is swallowed up in the will of another.
- It refers to one who serves another even to the disregard of his own interests.
The word slave is an unpopular word….and for good reason. Throughout the history of humanity, the stronger have conquered the weaker and subjected them to the most horrific indignities. The first goal of a slave is simply to survive. But a close second would be to obtain freedom. Yet the Apostle Paul willingly made himself a bond-slave of Christ.
Born a slave to sin, he was born again a slave to righteousness. At the moment of new birth, he entered into a relationship with the Lord Jesus which not even death could sever, for the power of death was broken on the cross. He was a man whose will was utterly swallowed up in the will of God, demonstrated by his utter disregard even for his own life that he might preach Christ.
This disgraceful word…..slave…..has now been given an air of dignity by all of those who, like Paul, have gladly chosen the title of slave for themselves because of the exceeding greatness of the Master. Head high, chin up, eyes lifted heavenward…….we serve with gladness.


Updates, Healthcare & Self-Health Discussion & Beliefs
Every once in a while we like to 'wax philosophical' here at uvitals! Here we explore our core concepts and beliefs; everything from issues with the overall healthcare industry to deep-dives into the Self-Health concept and occasional behind-the-scenes looks into the nitty-gritty details of uvitals products & our business.
Why it's more important than ever to take your health into your own hands!
Why you need to take your health into your own hands!
Here we look at the concept of "Self-Health" and explain what it is: a philosophy of educating ourselves about how we function and then taking responsibility for our own health and well-being. It sounds simple but in this article we discuss why it's so vital that we become less dependent on a medical system that is only designed to manage symptoms, and that we become more proactive when it comes to living in a way that promotes overall health and prevents disease as much as possible.

The Cleveland (CL-55) class gun cruiser was derived from an extensively improved Brooklyn (CL-40) class design. They had four triple 6-inch gun turrets as a main battery as opposed to the five turrets in the Brooklyn class. Forty of these cruisers were ordered in all. Of these forty, ten would be completed as Independence (CVL-22) class light aircraft carriers and two were cancelled. Twenty eight cruisers were built, six of these would later be converted to missile cruisers in the late 1950s.
CL-55 thru 58 were laid down in mid to late 1940 by New York Shipbuilding Co. and commissioned mid to late 1942. These four ships would decommission in 1946-47, were stricken in 1959 and scrapped in 1960. CL-59 and 60 were laid down in mid 1941 by NYSB and the former was ordered completed as an aircraft carrier (CVL-22) which commissioned in January 1943 as the USS Independence. CL-60 commissioned in November 1942. CL-60 was decommissioned in 1946 and scrapped in 1960. CVL-22 also decommissioned in 1946 and was used in the Bikini Atoll atomic tests and later sunk as a target in 1951.
CL-61 thru 63 were assigned to Newport News Shipbuilding - and were laid down in early 1941. CL-61 was ordered completed as an aircraft carrier in February 1942 and would commission as Princeton (CVL-23) in Feb 1943. She was lost 24 Oct 1944 in the Leyte Gulf. CL-62 and 63 were commissioned in early 1943 - both were decommissioned in 1947 and scrapped 1959-60.
CL-64 thru 67 were assigned to Bethlehem Shipbuilding, Quincy MA. CL-64 was laid down in Mar 1942 and CL-65 thru 67 in early 1943. The former would join the fleet in January 1944 and the latter three in mid-to-late 1944. These were all completed as gun cruisers. CL-64 was decommissioned in 1946, stricken in Apr 1966 and expended as a target in Oct 1969. CL-65, 66, and 67 were considered for conversion to missile cruisers CLG-6, 7, and 8 respectively. The latter two were carried out but CL-65 was stricken in Dec 1970 and scrapped - CL-82 took her place. These conversions took place 1957-60 and as modified, two 6-inch gun turrets were removed aft and a twin Terrier missile launcher was fitted with a capacity for 120 missiles. CLG-7 (ex CL-66) went out of service in 1974 and was stricken in 1978, then scrapped. CLG-8 (ex CL-67) went out of service in 1969, was stricken in Dec 1973 and scrapped in 1975.
CL-76 thru 79 were assigned to New York Shipbuilding and all four were ordered completed as aircraft carriers (CVL-24, 25, 26 and 28). The first three were laid down mid-to-late 1941 and the fourth in early 1942. These light aircraft carriers were commissioned early to mid 1943 and were decommissioned in early 1947. CVL-24 was transferred to France in June 1951, returned in Sep 1960 and scrapped in 1962. CVL-25 was stricken in Nov 1959 and scrapped in 1962. CVL-26 recommissioned in Sep 1950 as a training carrier, went out of service in Jan 1956, was stricken in 1970 and scrapped. CVL-28 recommissioned in Oct 1948 and was modified for ASW duties, went out of service in Jan 1955 and from 1965-67 was refitted for transfer to the Spanish Navy where she served until 1989. The longest lived of the Cleveland class cruisers, she was sold for scrap in 1995. CL-80 and 81 were assigned to Newport News Shipbuilding, laid down in mid 1941 and commissioned mid-to-late 1943. Both were decommissioned 1946-47 and scrapped 1960-62.
CL-82 and 83 were assigned to Bethlehem Shipbuilding, Quincy MA and were laid down July 1943 and Sep 1944 respectively. CL-82 commissioned in May 1945 and CL-83 in March 1946. CL-82 went to reserve in June 1949 as did CL-83 in June 1956. CL-83 was scrapped in 1960-61. CL-82, which replaced CL-66 as contender for missile cruiser conversion underwent this conversion 1957-59. She was withdrawn from service in Dec 1973 and scrapped in 1978.
CL-84 and 88 were assigned to Federal Shipbuilding, Kearny NJ but were cancelled in December 1940 to allow that shipyard to concentrate on destroyer construction.
CL-85 was assigned to New York Shipbuilding but reordered as a light carrier in Mar 1942 - she joined the fleet as Langley (CVL-27) in Aug. 1943 - went out of service in early 1947 then transferred to France in Jan 1951. Returned in 1963, she was scrapped in 1964.
CL-86 and 87 were assigned to Newport News Shipbuilding, laid down in late 1942 and commissioned mid to late 1944. They went out of service in June 1947 and June 1949, respectively, the former was scrapped 1964-65 and the latter in 1960.
CL-89 thru 94 were assigned to Cramp Shipbuilding. CL-89/90 were laid down in Aug-Sep 1941 and entered service 1943-44, decommissioned 1947-49 and were scrapped in 1962 and 1969, respectively. CL-91 was laid down in Dec 1942 and commissioned Dec 1944 - went to reserve in June 1947 and underwent conversion to a missile cruiser (CLG-5) 1957-60. Two aft 6-inch gun turrets were removed and a Talos missile launcher with 46 missiles fitted aft. She went out of service in Dec 1979 and was last laid up in the NDRF at Suisan Bay CA in 1995. CL-92 was laid down Mar 1943, commissioned in June 1945, decommissioned in June 1949 and converted to a Talos missile cruiser (CLG-4) 1957-60. She went out of service in November 1976 and was preserved as a museum. CL-93 was laid down Aug 1943 and had work suspended in June 1946 when nearly complete. She became the first Talos missile cruiser conversion (1956-58) - went out of service in 1970 and was scrapped in 1973. CL-94 was laid down Sep 1944, cancelled in August 1945, at the end of the war, and scrapped.
CL-99 and 100, both assigned to New York Shipbuilding, were reordered as light carriers (CVL-29 and 30) in June 1942, laid down August and November 1942 and commissioned mid-to-late 1943. Both decommissioned in 1947. CVL-29 recommissioned in May 1950 after refit for ASW duties and went out of service in April 1954 after the Korean War ended. She was scrapped 1959-60. CVL-30 remained in reserve, was stricken in June 1979 and scrapped.
CL-101 and 102 were assigned to Newport News Shipbuilding, were laid down March and June 1943 and joined the fleet in January and June 1945, respectively; they were placed in reserve 1947-49 and scrapped 1970-71.
CL-103 thru 105 were assigned to New York Shipbuilding; laid down between Dec 1942 and March 1943 and commissioned between July 1944 and January 1945. Out of service by 1947-49, CL-103 was scuttled as an artificial reef in May 1972, CL-104 was scuttled October 1970, and CL-105 was scrapped 1961-62.
Atlanta (CL-104) was struck from the Navy list on 1 October 1962, and she was earmarked for disposal. Atlanta's career, however, had not yet ended. Instead, she underwent an extensive modification at the San Francisco Naval Shipyard. Reinstated on the Navy list as IX-304 on 15 May 1964, the vessel was converted to a target ship for studies of the effects of high energy air explosions on naval ships. The changes included cutting her hull down to the main deck level and erecting various experimental superstructures-designed for guided missile frigates and guided missile destroyers-on her deck. In these configurations she was subjected to explosions to determine whether or not the experimental structures could satisfactorily combine essential lightness with equally essential strength and blast resistance.
Atlanta (IX-304), off the San Francisco Naval Shipyard, configured for Operation "Sailor Hat," presented an interesting silhouette to those familiar with

and informal support services and processes that offer advice and guidance to learners in your organisation Introduction It is difficult to give a definition of the difference between formal and informal support. You will notice that some support services appear in both columns. This is because in my opinion they give both types of support. For instance a course tutor will give formal support such as the location of college facilities to students when he/she first meets then but might also operate an open-door policy for informal one to one meetings. Formal Support Services Course/subject tutor Student support services Counsellors Careers advisors Learning support fund/EMA/ALG Qualified staff to teach in specialised support areas Severe to mild learning difficulties Deaf and hearing impaired Specific learning difficulties Basic Skills needs Blind or visually impaired Learning support Interpreters (Communication support worker) Note takers Readers Enlarged or Braille material Trained First Aiders Special exam arrangements Learning resources Moodle LRC Student council Chatterbox nursery Management Unions Informal Support Services Course/subject tutor Mentor Student council Peers Family 7)Select at least one of the formal and one of the informal support service described above and analyse their effectiveness. Draw on your own experiences of these services to help you illustrate your points and suggest areas for improvement. The new college LRC is bright airy and modern and is designed to meet the needs of all its learners. It has over 700 square metres of learning space which houses books computers mini-laptops magazines periodicals videos DVDs and more. In this interactive learning environment there is a mixture of open plan group and individual study areas. Also relaxed seating and quiet individual or small group study rooms are available. Sounds impressive but is it effective I can think of two immediate improvements Firstly the zero tolerance policy of no mobile phones and noise in the LRC needs to be enforced. I have yet to spend any time in the LRC without being constantly interrupted by noise from students even in the quiet zone. Secondly it needs to open on weekends. Surely there are some learners who would like to study on a weekend or loan a book. Not to mention staff members who might like to access their offices in the building not just the LRC. There are deadlines for essays and lessons that need planned for 900am on Monday mornings? presumably the college expects this all to be done by 500pm the previous Friday Sadly in my opinion it reflects one of the biggest problems in the college? inappropriate use of PCs. The majority of students I witness in the LRC are playing games and listening to music. I would like to see the volume disabled on all machines in the college as an initial step in tackling this problem. It would also help in classrooms where there are always a few students who dont have headphones but still want to listen to music especially in key skills. Having studied at Newcastle University which has a much larger and diverse campus and where no PCs have volume except tutor machines I see no reason why this shouldnt be the case at Carlisle. A lot of my colleagues feel the same regarding PC usage and this is one of many topics that can be discussed informally with ones peers. Making good use of available resources such as other staff members can be a big help in a large organisation. When I first started at Carlisle College I was assigned a mentor who provided me with invaluable informal support that helped me cope with the stress attached to starting any new job. Things that might be overlooked in interviews and formal inductions such as where can you park your car how do you get a photocopying account or where exactly room 52 is can all be sorted out over a cup of coffee providing you can find the canteen. I know I sound a little melodramatic but I was literally dropped in at the deep end as are all key skills part-time lecturers when I started at the college and I would not have survived if it were not for the informal support of some of my peers. 8)Reflect on your performance as a teacher so far. List your strengths and weakness and propose ideas for your professional development. Try to be as specific as you can e.g. just saying youre a good communicator isnt enough. In what way too whom verbally or written General introductory statement introducing yourself as a teacher Looking to the future I foresee that in order to carry out my duties as a teacher I will have to assume many different roles and that each of these will require practice and skills that may not be taught on this course. In my teaching career thus far I have taken on the role of classroom manager disciplinarian evaluator counsellor decision-maker role-model and even surrogate parent. My effectiveness as a teacher is greatly improved through consistency efficient time management and reflection. Key strengthsKey weaknesses I am creative? development of activities use of resources My time management is efficient? lesson planning and delivery workload prioritising tasks I have a clear command of my subject knowledge? my confidence with maths techniques gives the learners confidence Clear and concise delivery I command my classes well? good rapport with students challenge inappropriate behaviour consistency Assessment and tracking of students? formative and summative assessment is checked good use of ILPs and tracking software Enthusiasm for subject? apparent in teaching Hard working Supportive? open-door policy for learners will help/share ideas with colleagues Management of resources? mainly regarding support worker/teacher. There have been instances of prolonged individual support and of support worker teaching Lesson evaluation Keeping reflective journal up to date Do not like criticism 9) Proposed ideas for developmentDetail how you intend to achieve your proposals More efficient and effective management of support worker/teachers Better lesson evaluation A separate plan for support staff could be introduced detailing responsibilities for each lesson. This can work alongside group profile which will highlight more general areas of concern. Continue to design and develop different forms of lesson evaluation until relevant and insightful comments can be elicited from learners."

Placing Control Of Your Property With A Receiver: What Business And Property Owners Need To Know
By: Anissa Hudy, Esq. and Sara MacWilliams, Esq.
On February 6, 2018, Governor Snyder signed legislation which adopts the Uniform Commercial Real Estate Receivership Act in Michigan. The Act takes effect 90 days after it is enacted. You can read the entire text of the Act here:
Link this language: _URL_
Once a topic relegated to foreclosure cases, suddenly everyone is talking about receiverships. This is the first in a series about Michigan receivership basics that all business and property owners need to know.
What Property and Business Owners Need To Know About Receivership: The Basics
1. What is a receiver? A receiver is someone appointed by the court to oversee the management and/or disposition of property usually as part of a lawsuit. Basically, the receiver takes control of the property to ensure proper management, preservation and stabilization during the pendency of the receivership.
2. Do receivers have to be appointed if a property is the subject of litigation? Absolutely not. Sometimes, if the property has an equity cushion or a competent management team in place, spending money to bring in a receiver depletes resources. In other situations, however, the existing management may be allowing fraud, devaluations or waste to occur to the property, and getting a neutral third party (receiver) in to competently manage the property is necessary to stabilize it and protect against devaluation. Typical times a receiver would be appointed are in commercial lending cases involving foreclosures, shareholder disputes or divorces involving significant assets or property.
3. What other situations are appropriate for receivers? In the case of death of the property owner, a receiver may be appointed while ownership is being resolved through probate court. In divorces, where property or a business is owned by two spouses going through a divorce, a receiver may be very beneficial in maintaining neutral control of the property and/or business and stabilizing those operations. Also, receivers are commonly appointed in white collar criminal cases where the management is accused of fraudulent conduct.
4. How, if at all, does the new Michigan law change in Michigan? The new rules provide for uniformity regarding receiverships, including:
(a) Uniformity regarding the appointment, removal, and discharge of court-appointed receivers. For example, the receiver cannot be someone who is also a lien creditor;
(b) Clarification regarding the receiver's duties and powers with respect to the receivership property;
(c) Uniformity regarding rules about notice to parties impacted by the receivership;
(d) Uniformity regarding rules about the property owners' duties with respect to the receiver;
(e) Uniformity regarding requiring that a receivership order operate as a stay (similar to a stay in bankruptcy).
Prior to this legislation, typically, these issues were handled ad hoc, and the new rules are intended to standardize the process throughout the state.
5. How do you know if you need a receiver? Deciding whether to seek the appointment of a receiver is no simple task and requires consideration of the unique factors of each situation:
(a) How will a receivership affect property value? Consider the impact of the news that the property or business is in receivership on the overall value.
(b) What is the debt to equity ratio? Receivers are appointed to avoid waste, stabilize assets and maximize their value. If the property is already stabilized, avoiding waste and in a position to maximize value, a receiver may not be a good use of resources.
(c) Is current management or control an issue to preserving the property and maximizing its value? If so, a receiver is likely appropriate.
(d) Are the parties so far apart, or the relationship so frayed that without a receiver, the assets will depreciated or be destroyed, such as in shareholder disputes or divorces involving business operations? This weighs in favor of appointing a receiver.
(e) Is pertinent information regarding the property being suppressed or withheld? If so, a receiver is likely appropriate.
(f) Will the receivership cost deplete the value of the property? Receivers are not free, and if there is no income coming into the property or business, this will make it difficult to attract a receiver. Additionally, keep in mind that many receivers bill by the hour, so consider what level of receivership management makes sense for the case and whether the costs are justified. Receivers who bill a flat fee may be a good solution.
(g) Is there a receiver who is experienced in the property or business at issue who can competently serve as a neutral? There are very good receiver options for standard commercial property, even property that has environmental or other complex concerns. Specialized businesses often require specialized receivers.

Parallel Computing Toolbox
Handling Large Data Sets with Distributed Arrays and Parallel MATLAB Functions
For MATLAB algorithms that require processing of large data sets, Parallel Computing Toolbox provides distributed arrays and parallel functions.
Distributed arrays are special arrays that store segments of data on MATLAB workers that are participating in a parallel computation. Because distributed arrays store data on many workers, you can handle larger data sets than you can on a single MATLAB session. Distributed array data that resides on workers can be manipulated from your client MATLAB session; MATLAB automatically transmits operating instructions to workers that then work collaboratively on the arrays.
You can construct distributed arrays in several ways:
 - Using constructor functions such as rand, ones, and zeros
 - Concatenating arrays with same name but different data on different labs
 - Distributing a large matrix
More than 150 MATLAB functions, including linear algebra operations, are supported directly for distributed arrays enabling you to quickly develop and prototype your parallel applications without having to write low-level message passing programs. Some of the linear algebra functions are based on ScaLAPACK library (Scalable LAPACK library designed for computer clusters). Refer to the documentation on Using MATLAB Functions on Distributed Arrays for the full list of supported functions.
Programming with distributed arrays
Programming with distributed arrays. Distributed arrays and associated parallel algorithms let you create parallel applications with minimal changes to your serial code. Click on image to see enlarged view.
You also have the ability to explicitly annotate sections of your code using the spmd (single program multiple data) construct for parallel execution on several workers. When MATLAB encounters the spmd statement, it sends all commands contained between spmd-end for execution on MATLAB workers. MATLAB ensures the transfer of necessary variables from your workspace to that of the workers. Variables that are in the workspace of the MATLAB workers can be manipulated from the MATLAB client, while the data contained in these variables continues to live remotely in the workspaces of the MATLAB workers.
Note how the example above can be recast using spmd-end in the example below. For details on relationship between Composite, codistributor1d, and distributed objects and the spmd-end block, see the Single Program Multiple Data section in the Parallel Computing Toolbox documentation.

In general, very few changes are required to convert your serial program to a parallel program. Note that in the NAS Conjugate Gradient Benchmark example below, the only requirement for changing between serial and parallel code is the declaration of distributed arrays. Other operations work transparently on distributed arrays.
See the Working with Distributed Arrays section in the Parallel Computing Toolbox documentation for more information.

Top 5 Surface Protections for Your Home
Renovating a building involves upgrading countertops, floors, and cabinets. All of them are created with materials like wood, marble or glass. They help to prevent damage, wear, and soiling of the surface of a material. The top 5 surface protections for your home include tapes, boards, mats, drop cloths and sealants.
People often use tapes but there are different types of adhesive tapes that are exclusively designed for specific purposes. Starting from plumbers, astronauts to secretaries, people make use of tapes for holding together a number of things. Adhesive tape is a strip of paper or cloth coated with an adhesive substance that allows it to get attached to different surfaces.
Painter's Tapes, Duct Tapes, Teflon Tapes, Masking Tapes and Double-sided Tapes are used for various purposes. Tapes used for surface protection are often created with Polyurethane which has an adhesive on it for binding it to a surface. These tapes are durable and strong and so they are ideal for protecting countertops, wooden floors, and windows. The side of the adhesive tape sticks to the material surface without leaving a residue. Therefore you won't face any difficulty in removing it by peeling it away. Usually, protective tapes have several functions like preventing scratches on wooden floors in high traffic areas as well as shielding surfaces at the time of paint renovations.
Shurtape is another surface protector which is used to seal aluminum backed duct wrap. It helps to create barriers between water and vapor and repairs metal temporarily. Moreover, it resists odor and smoke. Shurtape also provides a wide array of tape products that resist ultraviolet rays of the sun for greater surface protection.
Boards created with reconstructed cardboards are used as surface protection for different types of flooring like linoleum, marble, concrete, and wood. Usually, the boards are available in rolls. You can unravel the rolls for covering the surface of your floor or any other hard surface area. If you have to remove the board, you have to lift it up and roll it back into its original state as no adhesive is used.
Protective mats are pieces of materials created from different types of fabric or plastic. They help to protect your ceramic tiles, granite floors, carpets, and marble floors. You can easily place the mats in your doorways or on steps for keeping debris and mud away from your flooring. If you want you can spread the mats on countertops for preventing dust from settling on your indoor surface. Some of the mats are created for absorbing oil, paint, and grease and so they are perfect during the construction of homes and new buildings.
Drop Cloths
These are mostly used for protecting surfaces at the time of painting work during the renovation. Most of the canvas drop cloths seem like large bed sheets and they are spread over a surface loosely for preventing paint from staining it or for holding off dust particles.
This is an extremely useful thing that you can keep in your home. The sealant deals with small cracks before they break the structural integrity of your home. This surface protector is excellent for sticking to 2 surfaces together. Polyurethane sealant is used as adhesive due to its tear resistance capacity, hardiness, and strength. This material provides good adhesion to different substrates like glass, wood, plastic, and concrete because of its elasticity and structural properties. As a result of which Polyurethane sealant is used widely in the automotive, construction and textile industries.
Choose the best adhesive carpet protection from the top online store for your home and protect its surface for several years to come.


What will happen? If the astronaut shoots at his companion in space.
Space has its secrets. We all know that there is no gravity in space. The question is what will happen if there is a dispute between the astronauts and if an astronaut fires a revolver at his companion standing nearby. Will the revolver's bullet reach the nearest target. Will blood come out of the astronaut's body after being shot. Will the astronaut die. Let's try to find answers to all the questions.

Can a gun be fired in space like the ground?
Graduate from Indian Institute of Technology, Roorkee and Mukul Kant, who is researching the mysteries of nature, says that to fire any bullet or bullet, gunpowder or propellant has to be set on fire, due to which with the help of a blast The bullet comes out of the gun very fast. And to the fire we need oxygen, but there is no oxygen in the space. In such a situation, fire cannot happen. If someone presses the trigger of the gun, the miss will be fired.
Is there an option to fire with a gun in space?
But it is not that space cannot be fired. Mukul Kant explains that with the help of artificial oxidizers, the gunpowder can be set on fire and the bullet can be shot. Now if someone shoots a bullet with a gun in space, then because of this, it will know what the effects will be.
What will sound if shot in space?
If we shoot with a gun on earth, as soon as the bullet comes out of the gun then a heavy sound is produced. But due to the vacuum present in the space, there will be no sound on gunshot because the sound waves need some medium to travel and the sound waves in the vacuum cannot travel and due to this without any sound. The bullet will exit the gun.
What will happen if a shotgun blows in space?
When a gun is fired, it causes a shock to the back, which is called the recoiling of the gun. According to physics, due to newton's action-reaction rules and conservation of linear momentum, a backward force is applied when the bullet comes out of the gun. Due to momentum and mass, that backward force is very low, so that we do not have to push far and if we talk about space, then these rules also apply there but due to lack of gravity, we will start swimming backward and our displacement too. It could be a little more. According to a calculation, if the bullet comes out of the gun at a speed of 1000 m / s, the speed of the rear shock due to the backward force will be only a few centimeters/second.
How far will the bullet fired in space go?
Now a very interesting thing. When we shoot at the earth, due to gravity and air friction, it gets some external forces due to which its speed decreases after some time and it stops after traveling a fixed distance.
But if we talk about space, then there is neither gravity nor air which can put external force on the bullet and stop it. Also, due to the expansion of the universe, that is, due to the expansion of the universe, it will take several million light-years time for the bullet to go from one place to another. To make it simple and simple, the bullet will travel for infinite time and will not stop until an asteroid or a planet comes in its way.

The Audubon Center at Riverlands has partnered with the Rivers Project Office of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and the Cornell Lab of Ornithology to develop and implement a citizen science landbird monitoring program for bottomland forests on the Mississippi River, in the Great Rivers Confluence Region. This project will result in valuable information on breeding bird diversity in these forested floodplains.
In the Midwest, some of the largest tracts of forest are found along major rivers such as the Mississippi and Missouri Rivers and these forests have the capacity to support a great diversity of birds and other wildlife. Near the confluence of the Missouri and Mississippi River, the Rivers Project Office of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers alone manages close to 50,000 acres of public lands, much of which is bottomland forest.
The Mississippi River is a globally significant migratory flyway that provides nesting, resting and feeding habitat for 60% of the migratory bird species in North America, and 40% of North American waterfowl. In all, over 300 species of birds migrate along the Mississippi Flyway. Many species are relatively easy to identify and detect, and the presence and relative abundance of these birds, like the Prothonotary Warbler, may be used to help describe the overall health of bottomland forest ecosystems.
For more information or ways to be involved with the project please contact Jean Favara at _EMAIL_.

Marina Gold of the Egalitarianism research group, has recently published a new book at Palgrave Macmillan US, named "People and State in Socialist Cuba; Ideas and Practices of Revolution". The term revolution, is as Gold, states, surprisingly unexplored and her book enters into a highly dynamical aspect of egalitarianism through an analyses of the concept of Revolution. However, to follow the blurb of the book, Revolution is explored "not as a ideology but as form of practice and a fluid set of relations". Through an analysis of urban spaces such as urban agriculture, alternative medicine, migration, and self-employment, this book considers the complex interactions between the Cuban people and the state. These forms of revolutionary praxis also provide spaces of interaction with global environmental movements, international NGOs, and the market. Interrogating the meaning of 'Revolution' raises new questions about the nature of the Socialist state in Cuba today and its engagement with more global phenomena. The overarching themes of this book include the relationship between people and state, and a more categorical concern with the nature of 'the State.'" Thus, Gold orginises her book through chapter. 1. Perpetual Revolution, chapter 2. Accounts of Revolution, chapter 3. Practices of Revolution 4. chapter 4, Discourses on Revolution 5. chapter 5, Limits of Revolution, and chapter 6. Revolution and the State
The term revolution is at the preseent also a focus of another ERC grant at the University College London, named "Comparative Anthropologies of Revolutionary Politics (CARP)" and is led by Martin Halbraad.
