Spanish Flamenco Singer Chiquetete dies at 70
December 16, 2018 Angel Romero	Leave a comment
Chiquetete
Spanish flamenco and ballad singer Antonio José Cortés Pantoja, better known as Chiquetete, died in Seville, Spain on December 16, 2019 after surgery complications. He was 70 years old.
Chiquetete (the boy) was born in Algeciras, Cádiz, on July 26, 1948 in a gypsy family. The household relocated to Seville when he was 8 years old. At 12, he joined the group Los Algecireños (later called Los Gitanillos del Tardón) with Manuel Molina Jiménez and Manolo Domínguez "El Rubio". At that time he adopted the artistic name of his maternal uncle, known as El chiquetete de Jerez.
In 1976, he won the Mairena del Alcor Prize. After that, he began his solo career with the recording Gitano yo he nacio in 1977 and Triana despierta (1979), accompanied by acclaimed guitarists Paco Cepero and Enrique de Melchor.
He was a flamenco singer until 1980. Chiquetete's LP Altozano meant a radical shift in his career as he entered the romantic ballad genre with flamenco influences. This was followed by Tú y yo in 1981.
In 1988 he released Sevilla sin tu amor, which included one of his greatest hits: A la Puerta de Toledo. A year later he released Canalla, with songs composed by romantic ballad hit maker Juan Pardo, although this album was not as successful as previous efforts.
In the 1990s he released three albums. After retiring for a few years, Chiquetete came back with Como la marea (2004), produced by his son Fran Cortés.
In recent years, Chiquete continued performing traditional flamenco and ballads.

Q: Getting Waveforms with Negative Voltage Component on a Bridge Rectifier I am trying to simulate a Bridge Rectifier with 1N4005 diodes and an AC power source. The circuit looks like this: link here

I am getting a waveform that drops below zero V, is this behavior acceptable for a circuit like this? Thank you.

A:
I am getting a waveform that drops below zero V, is this behavior
  acceptable for a circuit like this?

Yes it's perfectly normal for low speed diodes like the 1N400x series. They have a reverse recovery time of many microseconds and this means that they will continue to conduct for "several microseconds" when the voltage is reversed. This one (from General Semiconductor) is about as bad as it gets: -

It looks like you are using an applied AC frequency that is "beyond the scope" for this type of diode. Look for fast-recovery diodes if this is a problem. Also try using a smaller maximum time-step in your simulator - it will give a much more precise resolution at the expense of a longer calculation time.

Good Charlotte/Sum 41
Michael Alan Goldberg October 28, 2004 4:00AM
"I don't want to grow up," spat Milo Aukerman, singer for pop-punk trailblazers the Descendents, nearly 20 years ago. Now two of their descendants -- Good Charlotte and Sum 41 -- are doing just that after coming out of the gates as snotty, Hot Topic-ed kiddy-punkers. Peep Good Charlotte's new album title, The Chronicles of Life and Death, then listen to the strings, synths, pianos and acoustic guitars wresting control from the three-chord crunch within (not to mention a parade of tunes about how shitty the world is), and it's clear these mascaraed Marylanders are grasping for the kind of gravitas found at Dick Cheney's house just down the Beltway. Meanwhile, Canadian goofballs Sum 41 chronicled life and death for real earlier this year, nearly taking rebel bullets in the Congo while there to film a documentary on behalf of the relief organization War Child. The band named its new album, Chuck, after the U.N. peacekeeper who helped get them out alive, and it, too, takes a serious tack both instrumentally and lyrically. Still, no one should be shocked if members of either band take off their pants or puke on each other onstage -- they ain't that grown up.

Saving 'Pugin's Chambers" at The Granville Hotel in Ramsgate for future generations
By HTNNews
Heritage Lab CIC is bidding to save Pugin's Grade II listed Granville Hotel in Ramsgate, Kent from disappearing into obscurity.
Heritage Lab has a legal agreement with the owner to buy the 999-year leasehold to the seafront Granville Bars. It has a year in which to raise the £485,000 needed to complete the deal and kick start their plans to transform it into a thriving creative hub and world class events space.
"We want to unleash creative potential by restoring Ramsgate's heritage buildings," said Rob Kenyon, CEO and founder of Heritage Lab CIC.
"We now know that this incredible Pugin building can be saved for ever, have a productive future and once again be the focal point for the community. This is the first of our Curiously Creative projects and with the support of the community and our supporters, we know we can make this happen."
Nick Dermott, Chairman, The Pugin Society, said: "The formerly palatial Granville Hotel represents an extremely rare example of Edward Pugin working in the commercial sphere. The remaining spaces still clearly express Pugin's grand ambitions, and his architectural panache.
"The spaces at the former Granville Hotel have not been seen by the public in 30 years. Their reopening would greatly enhance Ramsgate's facilities while revealing important historic spaces not seen for a generation."
Pugin's Chambers will bring life and light back into this architectural gem, designed and built in 1867 by Edward Welby Pugin, and return it into productive use for the benefit of local people.
Once a major Ramsgate and UK landmark, the treasures behind its boarded-up façade have been forgotten for over 30 years. All that remains internally of its glorious past is a sequence of spectacular, yet derelict, sea facing public rooms. Regularly visited by princes and princesses, grand dukes, lords & ladies, writers, actors and the rich and famous from all over Europe, the Granville Hotel guest list represents a "who's who" of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. With 26 spas and baths, a marble skating ring, theatre and ballroom, it was the premier destination of its day, with guests arriving on the privately chartered first class 'Granville Express' train from London.
It was commandeered as a military hospital for the Canadian Government in the first World War, and medical officers who served there include the first Canadian to be awarded the Victoria Cross and a future Nobel laureate.
Later in the 20 th century it was more widely known as a ballroom dancing venue and the Cave jazz club. Its public bar closed for the final time in 1991.

How do they work and what is the correct way to diagnose them?
The fan clutch or visco clutch as it is sometimes referred to is typically one of the least well understood components in an engines' cooling system and consequently it is also one of the most commonly misdiagnosed parts in the vehicle as a whole. However, with the correct understanding of it's workings and with the correct equipment it is not all that difficult. In this article we will therefore try to demystify the subject and hopefully help you to understand whether the part is indeed faulty or not.
So, first off, what is the full scope of functions that this part needs to perform and how does it actually work? The purpose of the fan clutch is to control the engine fan, not only to allow it to supply cooling air to the heat exchangers at the front of the vehicle, but to make it do so only when it is necessary, and to supply only the necessary amount of air when it does. The latter two points are important to note as they are often overlooked or not understood to be part of the primary function of the fan clutch. The reason why this is important is that the engine fan will draw power from the engine in direct relation to the speed at which it is turning and if the cooling load on the various systems collectively is low then only a small amount of air is required. The fan speed therefore should be correspondingly low so as not to draw in excess air thereby robbing the engine of power unnecessarily and consequently wasting fuel and money. The point then is that the fan clutch is not only there to drive the engine fan but to do so efficiently.
So then, how does it actually do this?
In a nutshell the viscous fan clutch is made up of two halves mated to each other and capable of rotating semi-independently of each other. The input side is coupled to the engine either directly or by means of a belt and therefore rotates in a fixed relation to the engine. The output side is mounted on a bearing which is in turn mounted on the input shaft so as to allow it to rotate at a speed different to that of the input side. There is a seal on the input shaft which keeps the assembly sealed. The input and output sides have a system of mating concentric grooves and the sealed space between them is filled by an amount of silicone oil which varies in relation to the amount of drive required from the fan clutch. The amount of oil in the grooved space between the two halves is controlled by a valve connected to a thermal element located at the front of the fan clutch. The oil is released from a storage reservoir incorporated into the assembly when more oil is required and it is pumped back into this reservoir when less oil is required in the working space. As the thermal element heats up in response to hotter air resulting from an increase in thermal load the valve will allow more oil to flow into the grooved space between the two halves. This increases the viscous shear forces (friction) between the input and output sides and thereby causes an increase in the speed of the output side. The fan therefore draws more cooling air through the heat exchangers which balances the cooling capacity of the air with the thermal load of the system.
Now that we have a basic outline of how the system works it is necessary to understand the system characteristics of a properly functioning viscous fan clutch in order that we may be able to interpret system characteristics which are out of line and thereby differentiate a functional fan clutch from a failed one.
In a correctly functioning system we would see that when an engine is started the fan clutch will be engaged to exactly the same extent as it was when the engine was last shut down. This means that even if the engine is ice cold when started, the fan would be fully engaged if the engine was running at full thermal load when it was last shut down. This is because the oil volume in the grooved space between the input and output sides is still the same as when the engine was shut down and the clutch stopped rotating. When the engine is first started again (when it is cold) the oil in the working chamber (the grooved space between the input and output halves) will start to circulate back to the storage reservoir thereby decreasing the drive force transmitted by the fan clutch back to the point where the fan is completely disengaged. At this point the fan will rotate with only a very small drive torque resulting from the frictional forces in the bearing. As the engine heats up, the air coming through the heat exchangers will heat up also, in response to which the thermal element on the front of the clutch will start to progressively open the valve controlling the oil flow. This will cause the drive torque of the system to progressively increase in balance with the thermal load on the system up until the point where it is fully engaged again.
A small deviation from the above pattern will be seen when a cold start up is performed due to the effect of oil viscosity which is higher at low temperatures than at operating temperature. The effect of this is that when the oil is cold the amount of fan engagement will be higher for a given amount of oil in the working chamber than when the oil is warm and a certain amount of fan engagement will therefore always be present on a cold start up but it will fall away relatively quickly as the oil heats up (due to internal friction) and the fan clutch reverts to the correct (low) level of engagement in response to the low thermal load under that condition.
With the above in mind it is now possible to determine whether a fan clutch is faulty or not. Essentially there are two ways in which a fan clutch can fail. The first and more obvious one is if the part is no longer transmitting the required drive torque necessary to allow proper cooling. The other is if the part becomes 'jammed' up and no longer varies the drive torque supplied in response to changes in thermal load. The first failure mode becomes evident in elevated cooling system temperatures and the second mode becomes evident in excessive noise from the fan due to the fact that it does not disengage at any time whatsoever. In addition the second failure mode should also become evident in increased fuel consumption.
This brings us to the next question, 'How do we test for the above?' The correct way to test a viscous fan clutch is to determine the amount of slippage allowed by the system at the various operating points that the system goes through while warming up. The pattern that should be evident is that on a cold engine the clutch will be engaged at a level in line with the engine temperature at the time of shut down and should disengage again within three to five minutes after start up. This setting should then hold until the thermostat opens and the engine coolant begins circulating. Only at this point would the air being sucked through the heat exchangers in front of the fan start to warm up and only from this point on should the fan clutch start re-engaging. By the time that the coolant temperature entering the radiator reaches full operating temperature the fan clutch should be fully engaged. At this point the measured slippage in the fan clutch should be no more than 5%.
The correct way to determine slippage is to measure fan speed relative to engine speed and divide the former by the latter. Anything less than 95% would become progressively more and more problematic as a healthy system should be able to maintain this level of performance. This measurement is best made using an infrared tachometer with small pieces of reflective tape on the input shaft to the fan clutch as well as on a suitable place on the fan hub between the base of two adjacent blades. At the same time the engine coolant temperature should be measured using an infrared thermometer so as to ensure that the temperature is indeed at operating temperature when measuring slippage. It should be mentioned at this point that it is not possible (not to mention downright dangerous) to determine how much slippage is present by trying to hold the fan blade with ones hand and then starting the engine, simply because it is not possible to differentiate between 5% slip and 10% slip or even 15% slip for that matter. To put this into context, a system with 10% or 15 % slip in the fan clutch could already have significant cooling problems.
Since the above tools are of a specialised nature, it is recommended that where it is suspected that a vehicles viscous fan clutch is failing or has failed, the vehicle be taken to the closest Silverton Radiators outlet where this testing can be undertaken and a diagnosis can be made by someone who has experience in cooling system troubleshooting. In addition Silverton Radiators stocks a wide range of OE manufactured viscous fan clutches and quality replacement parts to cover most requirements. In particular Silverton Radiators stocks the original Behr range of visco fan clutches being a partner to Behr via the Behr Hella Service joint venture. In summary then, your most reliable partner when it comes to engine cooling problems remains as always, Silverton Radiators.


The option in control and dynamical systems (CDS) is open to students with an undergraduate degree in engineering, mathematics, or science. The qualifications of each applicant will be considered individually, and, after being enrolled, the student will arrange his or her program in consultation with a member of the faculty. In some cases the student may be required to make up undergraduate deficiencies in engineering science courses.
The CDS option, as part of the Computing and Mathematical Sciences department, emphasizes the interdisciplinary nature of modern theory of dynamical systems and control. The curriculum is designed to promote a broad knowledge of mathematical and experimental techniques in dynamical systems theory and control. In addition to taking courses in the CDS option, students must select a focus area (see below).
Students will be admitted to the option who expect to pursue the Ph.D. degree. The master's degree may be awarded in exceptional cases. The awarding of this degree requires fulfilling the Institute requirements for a master's degree, satisfying the focus requirements, and receiving a recommendation for awarding of the degree from the candidacy oral examination committee.
Institute requirements for the Ph.D. degree are described in the section on degree requirements. Approximately two years of course work are required, and two or more years are usually needed for preparation of the dissertation.
Complete the following courses: CDS 131, CDS 232, and CDS 231 or CDS 233.
Complete the following CMS/ACM Courses: CMS/ACM/IDS 107, CMS/ACM/IDS 113 or CMS/ACM/EE/IDS 117.
Complete an additional 36 units in CDS or other advanced courses in systems theory, dynamical systems, robotics, and/or applied mathematics.
Complete the focus requirement, consisting of at least 27 units in a particular area outside of CDS. Courses taken to satisfy the focus must represent a coherent program of advanced study in the chosen area. Possible areas include biological systems, computer science, environmental science, fluid dynamics, information and communications, networking, robotics, and space systems. The program of study must be approved by the student's counseling committee and the option representative.
Preliminary examination. Toward the end of the first year, all incoming students must take a preliminary examination administered by the faculty. Its purpose is to ensure a solid and broad knowledge in control and dynamical systems, and in the event of a deficiency, to direct the students to necessary courses and reading.
Prepare a research progress report.
Pass an oral examination on the major topic of the student's research. The oral examination is normally taken no later than the end of the third year of graduate academic residence at the Institute.
In addition, CMS 290 is required for all CDS first year graduate students during each term (fall/winter/spring).
Advising and Thesis Supervision. Upon admission, each student is assigned an adviser in the option, who will approve the initial course of study by the student. A preliminary exam given during the first year of study will be used to evaluate the student's preparation for continued study.
The adviser will be replaced by a research adviser and a candidacy committee when the direction of specialization is determined, not later than the beginning of the second year. The candidacy exam is normally taken during the third year of study. The candidacy committee will be the judge of the completion of the engineering focus requirement, necessary before advancement to candidacy. The student's candidacy committee may be reconstituted as the thesis committee after the candidacy exam has been successfully completed.
At the early stages of thesis preparation, the student's thesis committee will meet as needed to advise the student of his or her progress and to deal with any problems that might have arisen.
A final oral examination will be given after the thesis has been formally completed. The thesis examination will be a defense of the doctoral thesis and a test of the candidate's knowledge in the specialized field of research. Normally this defense will consist of a one hour public lecture followed by an examination of the thesis by the thesis committee.

He is no longer on either of these medications. Xarelto or Eliquis. However is is suffering terribly with the side effects of joint and muscle pain. He could barely walk this morning. His doctor refuses to believe him. He never had this condition until taking this poison.
I would suggest Arthrotec, Meloxicam.
This is a horrible recommendation. These drugs are contraindicated for people that are taking anticoagulants. Also, how does a drug that is used for GI and stomach issues help with severe joint and muscle pain?
I am withdrawing this advice I do not want my advice to hurt anyone or confuse members. Please consult your pharmacist before taking any medications.
Why has your doctor not addressed this issue for you? The most you can do over the counter is take Tylenol. Ibuprofen and similar drugs in the family are contraindicated when taking an anticoagulant. You should ask your doctor if the Tylenol does not work about a low dose of Tramadol or similar drug. There was no reporting of joint or muscle pain during the trials. I would recommend that you report the "severe joint and muscle pain" to the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS).
Yes I missed the Eliquis, but an NSAID can be combined with a blood thinner with consultations with your pharmacist. I'm not a doctor so don't take my word verbatim.
Hello Nitro. I am quite suprised that your pharmacist would make this recommendation. In both the Xarelto and Eliquis prescribing information they make it clear that "using Xarelto or Eliquis together with ibuprofen or any NSAIDs may increase the risk of bleeding, including severe and sometimes fatal hemorrhage". It is considered a major drug interaction and high risk. Also, there is no anticouglant drug that "thins your blood". They interrupt the coagulation cascade, i.e. clotting process within your body. Hope this helps.
I'm sorry but your doctor will determine if the interaction is just a precaution or serious.
For example if I cross referenced all the medications I was on with Drugs.com there are at least 15 Major interactions and I always mentioned this to my doctor and he would smile and pass me the prescription and say " does your website know what dosage amounts you are on"? Your past history and tolerance to all the medications I have been keeping track of for 25 years?
I learned a great deal about interactions.
Anyway medications and pain management isn't as black and white as what the drug companies post in writing. I don't want to call you naive but but I've been on more medications in 10 years than you will ever be in your entire existence.
Also I am a counselor with a deep backround in addiction, chronic pain, and mental health with a college education in medications and mental health therapy.
I am withdrawing all my previous advice I do not want my advice to hurt anyone or confuse members.
** My apologies for any confusion or disrespect.
Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) - I am on Xarelto for a partial DVT diagnosed on 10-11. My Vascular Dr.?
How long on average should it take for eliquis to dissolve a DVT running the entire length of a leg?
Has anyone who experienced severe joint pain with Xarelto had it go away when you stopped taking it?


Fujitsu, which has made a name for itself and its Arrows-branded Android smartphones and tablets in Asia, is looking to expand its offerings globally. The outfit has revealed that it intends to bring its smartphones globally, and Europe may be the next destination for Arrows to head to. That said, we're beginning to hear about Fujitsu's Mobile World Congress plans, and the latest Arrows addition appears to be impressive on paper in the specs department.
The Japanese smartphone-maker will be introducing its first Tegra 3-powered quad-core Android smartphone at MWC. The device will be running Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich and like previous Arrows offerings, come with a dust- and water-resistant slim pastil shell. The device will have a 4.6-inch display, will come with a 13.1-megapixel camera, and will have a fingerprint reader.
When I previewed the current-generation Arrows smartphones at CES last month in Las Vegas, I found the phones to feel a little plasticky as far as build quality goes, though well made. The feeling is very much akin to early Android smartphones from Samsung. That said, Fujitsu has always been leading in the hardware department, and we're going to have to see how the 13.1-megapixel camera stacks up against the current crop of 8-megapixel camera offerings on high-end handsets from HTC, LG, Motorola, and Samsung today.
The device may appeal to IT departments with the inclusion of a biometric fingerprint sensor. The only other mainstream device with a fingerprint sensor to date in the U.S. is the original Motorola Atrix 4G, available on AT&T. The device made it quick and easy to unlock the phone without having to enter in a PIN code, alpha-numeric password, or enter any patterns on the display. The feature will be a nice backup or alternative to Android 4.0's new face unlock feature, which utilizes facial recognition to unlock the phone.
In a conversation I had with Fujitsu's executives at CES, the company eagerly anticipates to also bring its products to the U.S. market within the coming few years.

Automobiles are one of the most frequently advertised products on the planet. It's hard to turn on your favorite TV show, sporting event, or movie without seeing either direct or indirect car advertising. Some advertisements are informative, others are subliminal, while even others are just plain amusing. It's interesting, normally we do everything to avoid ads, but in the design world, we study and analyze ads to dissect their strengths.

Get Into the Groove on Grand
April 1, 2014 by Courtney McCune
The Grand Avenue Arts District is a neighborhood on the rise. Set along the lower section of Grand Avenue in downtown Phoenix, it is a place where arts and community converge.
Recent improvements resulting from the EPA's Greening America's Capitals grant have left Grand Avenue a more beautiful pedestrian and bike-friendly place. The district is home to a range of businesses, including art galleries and studios, offices, restaurants and bars. It is also a major hub of activity for Artlink's First and Third Friday Art Walks.
Part of this activity and growth can be attributed to the efforts of property owners like Tom and Laurie Carmody. The couple have championed real estate and redevelopment projects in multiple districts throughout downtown Phoenix, including in Roosevelt Row, Grand Avenue and the Midtown District.
Currently, the Carmodys' energy is focused on Grand Avenue, with a project called The Groove on Grand, located at 1028 NW Grand Ave., in the former location of The Paisley Violin.
No strangers to the neighborhood, they were part of the force behind the development of the Oasis on Grand, a vintage motor lodge transformed into an arts-focused residential community.
With The Groove, they hope to create a gathering place for people in the neighborhood and beyond. "We're very engaged in the revitalization of the arts district on Grand, and we think that this can be a part of that— a place where the community could come together and meet, with food and wine, and where artists can participate," says Laurie Carmody.
The layout of The Groove on Grand forms its own little neighborhood, with its main building facing the street, and a cluster of historic cottages situated around an expansive tree-shaded patio in the back.
The collection of brightly-colored cottages was once part of the World War II POW camps at Papago Park before they were salvaged and relocated by the Carmodys. In their new life, they house a variety of small businesses and studio spaces.
One of these is the Red House Pub, living up to its name with a small bar in a bright red cottage. The Red House serves beer and wine Tuesday through Saturdays, with different musicians and DJs every night.
Other residents of the Groove on Grand include Kustumz Hairshop; Grand Ol' Optics, a vintage eyewear and eyeglass repair shop; The Citizen Royal, a women's clothing and personal style boutique; Muse Gallery Boutique; artists' studios and soon, a retail/wholesale coffee roaster. The historic 1930s main building houses an art gallery and designer chocolate shop, ib2 Chocolate.
On First and Third Fridays, The Groove hosts live music, food trucks and displays different featured artists throughout its buildings.
With the arts as the linchpin for Grand Avenue, The Groove is focused on supporting the artists who work and live in the neighborhood. "The more artists we have that are thriving, then the street thrives," says Laurie.
The Carmodys see a bright future for the Grand Avenue Arts District.
"It's a dynamic place. It has a lot of energy and people like to be involved in it, to be around it. And I think it's creating a nice atmosphere to promote collaboration and communication between the neighbors and the street and the community."

When you go out to buy an electric hoist, make sure your options are considered carefully. There are several models of hoist with unique features in the market. At times this becomes very overwhelming for a new buyer to make up their mind when shopping. Hoists can be categorized into electrical and manual hoists. They are made up of levers and pulleys that help in lifting loads off the ground and landing various loads. In this article, we shall discuss buying the best engine hoist because most buyers do not know how to go about it.
It is very confusing to buy an electric hoist especially if you do not know some of the critical factors to look at. Most people fall for just the looks and the prices not knowing that there are other important factors to look at before placing an order. A good thing with the engine hoist market is that many brands and models have been introduced to give you a variety of option to choose from. The following is a complete guide to purchasing an electric hoist.
The first aspect to put into consideration should be the capacity of the electric hoist. Usually, a crane is constructed for a 5 to 1 safety factor. Therefore, before investing in an electric hoist ensure you choose a crane that will be able to pick a certain amount of load to meet your daily requirements. It is good to learn how an electric hoist operates before you even decide to invest in one. Ensure you understand the capacity of the crane before making up your mind.
Another essential factor to keep in the back of your mind when buying an electric hoist is the warranty. When the electric hoists are manufactured from the factory they may not all be the same due to variations in quality control. You may order an electric hoist, and later after it has been delivered, you find out that it has some issues. You will have to take it back to the seller for an exchange or repair within a specified period. Usually, a quality hoist can have a warranty period of up to two years depending on the brand. Always follow the recommendations of the manufacturer's to get served with by their warranty. You should also remember that a guarantee cannot be transferred from one buyer to another.
The budget should always be among the considerations when it comes to buying an electric hoist. Usually, these products cost a lot of money. That is why you need to survey to understand the prices of the products from various stores. If the hoists meet all the requirements herein and it is affordable why not have it? Make sure that you buy from licensed and certified sellers to avoid future problems especially when claiming warranty compensation. Draft a reasonable budget based on your findings and work with what you have.
Finally, look at the speed at which the host can lift loads. An electric hoist is usually fast, but various electric hoists vary in speed. Make sure the hoist meets your daily requirements before you choose it.

If you are switching jobs: The replacement of job shouldn't be an excuse for labelling the workplace you have worked in as bad. You should show your boss why you're leaving the company and you ought to point out the things that bothered you, take action in a polite and professional method however. Keep a way of measuring professionalism which has led you to this true point in your career. This can help one to make strong references in the future. In conversations with fresh potential employers, it is necessary to be expert. You should also tell your first-class that you will be grateful for the chance you have had in working for his or hers firm. You never know when your current boss will end up being a great reference. Be aware that no one loves to end up being criticized. Not from subordinates or co-workers. Even if they should have it. A person with whom you have ever worked with could be a possibly positive reference. Do not demolish the bridges behind you. Maintain genuine contacts.

OnePlus Takes a Hard Look at Verizon Compatibility
Justin Herrick
OnePlus and Verizon might be paired up later this year. While the nation's largest carrier isn't expected to sell the OnePlus 6T, the necessary bands could be included that allow the flagship device to work properly on the network. Tests are underway for the OnePlus 6T on Verizon's network, according to PC Magazine. Multiple sources have stated something similar.
It would be the first smartphone from OnePlus to be fully compatible on a CDMA network. So far, the brand has limited its bands to those for GSM networks.
The difference today is that Verizon started accepting LTE-only smartphones that don't need to connect to 3G and 2G networks. In fact, Big Red stopped activating 3G-enabled devices over the summer. Verizon plans on shutting down that network in late 2019, letting its resources go to maintaining the 4G LTE network and developing a new 5G network.
Don't worry, though. OnePlus' latest flagship will still be sold direct-to-consumer through its online store. That's how OnePlus has been able to tightly control its software. Around the world, carriers are given little-to-no input on its decisions.
Elsewhere, the OnePlus 6T should be sold by T-Mobile. CNET reported back in August that OnePlus and T-Mobile reached an agreement for exclusive U.S. availability. It'll be sold unlocked in the U.S., but anyone with Team Magenta can also take advantage of payment plans and promotions.
As for the global debut, OnePlus will make an announcement in two weeks. We'll see the OnePlus 6T go official on Tuesday, October 30. Expect the price, release date, and distribution to be clarified as well.

Without fail, she'd always ask, "Would that be alright?" Even into her 80s, she sought approval. Especially when it came to shunning the Lord's House for her own house.
I never tried to talk her into it or shame her. I always said, "You know what? You're 83 years old, and you've earned the right to stay home if you want to. You've spent all your life being in church every time the door opened. Stay home if you like." Through the phone, I could feel her beaming from ear-to-ear.
"Well, that's kindly what I thought, too."
As she eased toward the end of her years, there were two things on which you could always count: She'd say whatever she doggone pleased and, secondly, she wouldn't do whatever did not set well with her.
I admired both. And, now I dream of the time when I will not feel compelled to be diplomatic. That I won't say "Yummy" about a bite of food that is really "yucky," that I won't buy something just to please a store clerk when, really, I don't need it nor like it and I won't pretend to be interested in a topic of conversation that bores me. Mama would say, "Let's talk about something else. This ain't worth the air it takes to blow out our words."
Once, I took her a plate of food for dinner. She took a bite of something and almost spit it out. She made a childish face. "That's awful! What in tarnation did you put in there?"
I frowned. "If I were eatin' free food that had been hand delivered to me, I wouldn't complain if I were you."
"You would if you were eatin' this."
There were many times I was aghast at comments she would make to other people. She was so plain spoken. Not intentionally mean or rude. She just spoke what was on her mind and she only did it with people who knew her well. Sometimes, I would step in and apologize for her. Sometimes, she'd allow the apology to stand but other times, she'd say, "I meant it. She does looks better when she has a perm than she does with stringy hair."
What I've come to admire lately is how she didn't go if she didn't want to go. "Mama, why aren't you going with us? It'll be fun."
"I don't care about fun. I just don't want to. That's why."
The other day I wanted to stay home. Tink sweetly said, "I'll go and you stay here. Rest. I know you're tired."
I replied, "No. I need to go." Oh, but I look forward to the years when I can say, "I don't want to" and everyone else will cut me a wide swath. No one will insist or make me feel bad. They'll believe I have earned whatever respite I claim.
There's liberation with the advancement of age. I don't want to miss out on those rewards.

Play this for the beginning, November 27, 2010
by Kevin Jackson-Mead (Boston)
Related reviews: IF Comp 2010
I was definitely intrigued by the beginning of this game, and up through about half an hour in I was totally into it. I loved the setting and the story, and even though it was fairly linear, I was enjoying the interactivity. If the beginning of this game had been submitted to IntroComp, it totally would have won. However, after the first act, the game opens up completely, and I was lost. I quickly learned what I shouldn't do, but I had no idea what I should do. I did a few things. I resorted to the hints. I still couldn't figure it out. I didn't have the energy (or the time) to start over and use the hints from the beginning.
I totally recommend that you play the beginning of this game. It is very much worth it. And then just decide to end the game when you've escaped the house. Pretend that that's the end of the game and call yourself a winner. It's OK; you have my permission. (Of course, this is subject to change if/when a post-Comp version is released.)

Loved this, but it was impossible without the walkthrough..., April 14, 2013
by Jacqueline A. Lott
I was very deeply conflicted, on a few levels, as to how to rate this game.
On one level, this game has a beauty, an allure... a sensuality running through it. A spell. I felt like I couldn't stop with it, and this is the first comp game in a long time where I remember going far in excess of the two hour mark. I wanted to find the end. I cared.
That said—and there's unintentional metaphor here—the critical ingredient of the spell that binds you tightly and draws you through the game? The bit that makes it possible to find its ultimate conclusion? The walkthrough. I honestly don't see how you could get through this game without it.
At first blush the game is silly and on rails, but then suddenly it grows sinister and seductive and opens up in such a vast way that the interactor has no clue where to go, what to do. I tried an attempt without the walkthrough—and got far!—but could never have found the end alone. I'm not sure how this could have been mitigated, either. On the one hand, I enjoyed the agency it gave me, but it gave too much, too quickly. I drowned.
I said I was deeply conflicted on a few levels, and I've only touched on a couple. I should move on with that.
There are other things this piece does really, really well. For example, it does a great job of show—don't tell—with accents. By the time I was half-way through, I was reading dialog in my head that dripped of humid Southern nights laced with cicadas. This was done exceptionally well, without misspelling everything to hit you over the head with it. Maybe I only picked up on this due to having spent a lot of my time in the South, though. I'd be interested to hear others' views on this point.
To continue with respect to the writing: it is this lovely mix of succinct matter-of-factness, evocative descriptions, and eloquent dialogue. This is what hooked me fairly early on, kept me going through my initial dismay, and teased me far enough along that I couldn't let go.
Also, we begin with this sense of being a slave, of being directed, and gaining volition... earning it. That was well done, though (as mentioned above) I think the author loosened the reins just a touch too quickly.
(Spoiler - click to show)I've been asked what I thought of the Voodoo. It is, at its core, the sensationalist sort of voodoo you get in horror novels and Hollywood. But that's what this is meant to be, despite the author's research. It's obvious he knows a bit about Voodoo, though if this is because he's spent time in New Orleans or just read a lot of articles on Wikipedia, I'm not sure. I'm completely unfamiliar with Louisiana Voodoo.
But I know enough of Voodoo from a trip I made to Haiti and books I've read since that trip and research into some of the artifacts I brought back with me that I understood a lot of the terminology used in this piece of fiction. It was interesting to compare and contrast what I knew of Voodoo to this. I'm not sure if the areas where things diverge are on account of Louisiana culture, or just the sensationalism.
It's a work of fiction. It's probably pretty offensive to some. But I took it as a work of fiction, and I enjoyed it.
I didn't realize (for some reason(!)) until after I'd completed the game, that there was a hint menu. Maybe that would have been enough. Maybe I could have gotten through without the walkthrough. Maybe I could have found my way without feeling led. That's really all that held me back on scoring this very, very well. But I rather doubt that to be the case. Some of the things in the walkthrough felt so. poorly. cued. I stand by my original statement: I don't see how you could have gotten through this game without the walkthrough. If you did, please leave a comment. I'd love to know.
I wanted this to be more. Really wanted it to be more.
I should probably give this a 3, but I enjoyed it too much, and thus gave this a 4. That is, admittedly, a bit of a gift.

Gris et Jaune was the first IFComp 2010 game I played, due to the writeup over at JayisGames.com. In effect, they said: "We'd hate to spoil even the beginning for you. Just play."
So I did. And I think you'll enjoy it best that way, too, so I'll keep my comments brief.
The beginning grabbed me in a way that I haven't experienced since parts of ANCHORHEAD.
I've never seen this setting before in IF. It begs the question: why hasn't someone set a piece here before?
There's a lot going on emotionally. More than you'd expect from a work featuring (Spoiler - click to show)a zombie.
That said, I'm not sure how much of that emotion was conveyed clearly. I had a lot of questions about a certain character (Spoiler - click to show)--Mama John-- and how things fit together between some characters. (After emailing the author--whom I found very congenial--about it, it sounds like we may see some changes in the post-comp edition; hopefully the emotional links will become more clear.)
Gris et Jaune isn't perfect. But there is something very special about it. Play it. You'll feel the heart that went into it.

The story of how NASA created the first worldwide high-speed data network—in 1968
As ambitious as getting to the Moon was, creating the global tracking system to stay in communication with the Apollo spacecraft was almost as remarkable.

By Charles Fishman 5 minute Read
This is the 20th in an exclusive series of 50 articles, one published each day until July 20, exploring the 50th anniversary of the first-ever Moon landing. You can check out 50 Days to the Moon here every day.
There are many hidden corners of the race to the Moon in the 1960s, vast undertakings that were necessary to get astronauts to the Moon and back but that weren't glamorous or high-profile enough to get much attention.
One of the most impressive and vital was NASA's creation of a global tracking and data network to track the astronauts to the Moon and back, to get data and instructions to them and their spacecraft, and, of course, to talk to them and receive data and TV broadcasts from space.

It was a daunting project. To maintain contact with a spaceship 100% of the time, there had to be tracking stations—big antennas—located in just the right places, so communication could be maintained as the Earth turned and as the spaceships themselves rocketed to the Moon, orbited it, and then returned home.
To be useful, those far-flung stations had to be connected to each other—and to NASA officials back in the U.S.—with a fail-safe data network. Special attention had to be paid to the hours after launch and during splashdown, when critical events might happen out of reach of even the land-based tracking stations.
The antennas had to be able to pinpoint the relatively tiny spacecraft—docked together, the command module, service module, and lunar module were just 53 feet long, as long as a truck semitrailer—at a distance of 240,000 miles. They had to maintain their lock on the spacecraft while they were headed to the Moon, in orbit around it, and on the surface.
The whole thing had to be staffed 24 hours a day, in every time zone around the world.
Even with the tools of 2019, setting up such a network would be wildly ambitious. With the computer and communications technology available in 1965, creating it was an effort that was a microcosm of the larger challenge of getting to the Moon.
As constructed and operated during Apollo, the network—NASA called it the STDN, the Spaceflight Tracking and Data Network—had 14 big antennas in sites ranging from Bermuda to Madrid to Guam. The three largest antennas, still in use, have surface areas two-thirds the size of a football field, tilted up in the air, aimed at the signals coming from Apollo.

STDN also had four specially constructed ships at sea—oil-tanker hulls hollowed out and retrofitted with huge tracking antennas, mounted bow to stern—and two satellites to help relay signals. During splashdown, as the capsules floated to the Pacific Ocean on parachutes (well beneath the range of land-based tracking antennas), NASA put eight airplanes aloft to maintain communication.
The tracking stations were linked by two-million miles of communication links: telephone wire, undersea cable, microwave towers. That's enough communication line to circle the Earth 80 times, and it was the first global, high-speed data network. The system was designed and run by NASA's Goddard Spaceflight Center in Maryland, just outside Washington, D.C. That's where all the signals were collected from around the world and then piped from Goddard to Mission Control in Houston. They went back out through Goddard as well.
The network cost $370 million to assemble in the mid-1960s. For comparison, each lunar module cost about $100 million. It required 2,700 people to operate and relied on 39 Univac computers spread around the world to manage the signals pouring in. During the Apollo years, it cost $70 million a year to run. The phone bill alone, the cost of those two million miles of leased communications lines, was $50 million annually (almost $400 million in today's dollars).
The communication speeds were good for 1969, although what's amazing is what NASA was able to do with what seems today to be a trickle of data. Coming down from the spacecraft, the data rate was 51,200 bits a second. Going back up from Houston to the astronauts, the rate was 2,000 bits per second. The critical dedicated data link between Goddard and Mission Control ran at 40,800 bits a second at a time when we were still almost three decades away from home-based modems that could match and exceed that bit rate.
The pictures from Apollo 11, that first Moon landing, streamed in first to the Honeysuckle Creek antenna in Australia. That's where the images of Neil Armstrong stepping off onto the lunar surface came back to Earth. Twenty minutes later, when Buzz Aldrin came down the ladder, the Earth and Moon had shifted positions enough that the pictures of Aldrin came back through the next station in the network, Parkes Observatory, also in Australia.

Australia's role in the data network—bringing home the signals, voices, and TV images from the first Moon landing—was such a point of pride and drama that it inspired the (mostly true) 2000 movie The Dish, starring Sam Neill, which was well received in both the U.S. and Australia. It also inspired a 527-page history from NASA with the spirited title Read You Loud and Clear.
The global tracking network didn't just work: it was one of the quiet marvels of the early space age.
STDN's navigational fixes were so accurate and could be calculated so quickly that at most points during the Apollo missions, the best navigation data for the astronauts didn't come from their own ships and onboard navigation instruments but back up from the ground.
In lunar orbit, 240,000 miles from Earth, the NASA tracking network could pinpoint the location of the command module and the lunar module to within 30 feet (0.006 miles) and could clock their speed to within 1 mph.
NASA had created an intergalactic radar gun.

The hosting service Google Photos offers many interesting innovations. Face detection is one of the novelties. But to remain in European law, Google chose not to enable the feature on the old continent.
The Learning Machine Photos Google is very powerful, it can simply find your photos with a simple keyword. Google teams have also integrated the Face Detection in his system. Unfortunately, the option is not available for European users, and it is necessary to use cunning to unlock functionality in Google Photos. Do not worry, the method is rather simple and only takes a few minutes.
to activate the "Face Detection" function, it is necessary to use a VPN to fool Google Photos you're on American soil. There are different VPN android, we have chosen to use TunnelBear, it is free and offers 500MB connection for registration.
Once the VPN is installed, you have to go to settings then delete the Google Photos app data before activating the VPN. To do this, go to Settings, then Applications and Google Photos "Delete Data". Then close completely the Photos application, otherwise activation may be made.
Do not worry, deleting data will not delete your pictures stored on Google Photos. Only the settings of the application will be deleted.
Fourth and final step of our tutorial now up to the activation of the feature on Google Photos. To do this, launch the Google Photo application, choose your Google Account. Access your photos, as was the case previously. To turn on face detection, go to the application settings.
Good news, functionality is also available from the Web version of photographs of hosting service.

After stating a desire to improve their business offering, EDF approached us with the aim of identifying how the company could better engage business customers.
With 44% of businesses having never changed energy supplier, EDF spotted an opportunity to drive brand loyalty by enhancing customer service and experience - two other primary drivers our research confirmed companies consider when selecting a supplier.
Our research also revealed a lack of awareness in businesses as to where their energy consumption is highest and the methods they can employ to save money.
A dedicated team were asked to conduct a Design Sprint to identify a solution that would meet the needs and desires of businesses, energy brokers and EDF themselves, while educating the consumer, driving loyalty and increasing revenue.
hedgehog lab proposed a content-driven app for business customers, which would deliver tailored experiences to users based on a considered onboarding process.
By focusing on the need to improve both customer service and experience, hedgehog lab quickly identified a content-driven mobile application as a viable tool to inform and drive engagement amongst business customers.
The platform would use onboarding as an opportunity to gain an understanding of the business before tailoring the experience to the user's needs. A news feed would present relevant and interactive content designed to educate and engage the reader, with the user also able to save and curate content for later reference.
A web interface, built upon a Django framework, would allow EDF to create, edit and schedule content easily and efficiently, while Mixpanel's analytical offering would allow the company to generate a comprehensive understanding of user journeys across different audiences.
"We helped EDF not only to diversify their offering to businesses but to learn more about the audience itself while raising engagement."
The utilities industry is not one without its complexities - especially in the UK. Power and gas suppliers like nPower, British Gas and e.on have more than just their customers to consider.

President Tilghman receives a final an ovation from the faculty April 29.
PHOTO: DENISE APPLEWHITE/OFFICE OF COMMUNICATIONS
The Tilghman Years: Faculty tributes
The following remarks from faculty representatives were delivered at the April 29 faculty meeting, Shirley Tilghman's last as president of the University.
Jeff Nunokawa, professor of English
Whereas Shirley Tilghman has been one of the best friends that humanists at Princeton have ever had — doing all that she could to extend and deepen our chances to learn and to teach,
Whereas Shirley Tilghman inaugurated and oversaw a monumental expansion and transformation of the arts at Princeton,
Whereas Shirley Tilghman has attended virtually every single student performance put on during her Presidency,
Whereas Shirley Tilghman's own interdisciplinary intellectual curiosity has served as an emblem and agent for conversations between scholars who might well have imagined that they could have nothing to say to one another,
William Jordan, Dayton-Stockton Professor of History
Whereas President Shirley Tilghman has offered year in and year out sumptuous hospitality to hundreds of hungry chairs of departments and their wards, newly hired senior professors, and has listened with great good will to the latter's word pictures of themselves, followed by her putting of thoughtful, penetrating and altogether well-informed questions to them, no matter what their field of study;
Virginia Zakian, Harry C. Wiess Professor in the Life Sciences
Whereas, she transformed the Natural Sciences by starting two institutes, Lewis-Sigler Institute for Integrative Genomics and Princeton Neurosciences Institute, which bring together researchers from different departments, fosters interdisciplinary research, and provide state of the art facilities for genomics and imaging research that would be difficult, if not impossible, to achieve within a traditional departmental structure.
Whereas, she has promoted faculty and student diversity at Princeton University, by gender, sexual orientation, racial/ethnic origin, and economic status. I am particularly proud of being part of an institution where students with financial need graduate without debt.
James Sturm, William and Edna Macaleer Professor of Engineering and Applied Science
Whereas as President, she put the clothes back on the emperor and restored sanity to the grading process.
Whereas she kept Princeton afloat during the financial meltdown crisis, and
Whereas through her 24-7 duties as President, she went out of her way to be open and welcoming to all in the Princeton community, to appreciate the service of every employee on all levels, and to seemingly (and actually probably) know the name of every faculty member.
David Dobkin, dean of the faculty
And whereas this is the last faculty meeting she will chair, be it resolved that we as a faculty salute her efforts during the past 12 years and thank her for her excellent and continual work on our behalves. Please join us outside for a toast to Shirley.

STUDENT LIFE: The 'fun' quotient


The Ada County Clerk's Office was looking for a way to instill a culture of learning and development in their department; specifically for 25 of their managers. The biggest challenge? Finding content that engaged every participant and fit into their busy schedule.
"It's a high-quality way to share new ideas with your team. The learning is packaged in a way that is quick and easy even for the busy professional. It also allows anyone to do it on their own time, which has proven a big thing for the people in our office. It's been a great tool for all of us."
Starting late April of 2016, all 25 managers started the Personal Productivity course, meeting weekly in small groups to discuss their learning experience from the previous week. In addition to completing the 5-week Personal Productivity course as a group, the average user has driven their own development by watching an additional 15 video lessons in their own time.
"Learning at VMware is no longer confined to classrooms. It happens anywhere, anytime and all the time. Together with other offerings, the Big Think platform has helped us create a way to look at and offer learning differently. This is helping us remain agile and responsive to the needs of our business and the dynamic marketplace."


My day-to-day existence has become entirely unmanageable, and I fear for my health and safety. I do not have much of a plan at this point other than to get checked in. When I am back out I will try to decide if this project can continue. If not I will immediately suspend the Patreon, but feel free to stop your payments yourselves too. It is clear that I can never return to my old ways of engaging online, and I must leave semipublic life permanently, among many other changes. All I want is to build a quiet and simple existence where I can live and work privately without hurting myself or others. At present I have a hard time contemplating the future. I just know that my life is fundamentally broken and drastic measures are necessary to fix it.
There's not much more to it, but what's left is too brutal for me to feel good about excerpting here. I did not read Freddie consistently, but in the information ecology I live in, he was always around, from Andrew Sullivan's old blog to Facebook comment threads to various nooks and crannies of left-wing Twitter. I very much hope Freddie recovers, whatever that would look like for him.
There is a certain harsh, taut style of online opinionating that is probably inevitable and inevitably polarizing. I get mad on the internet, as they say, and I react to other people being mad (or haughty, or scornful, or merely vicious) on the internet fairly predictably. And since we see each other in these media as words on a screen by an unblinking avatar, it can be very easy to forget the possibility, even the likelihood, that all the stylized fury masks true pain and terror. We're a world of lonely, hurting people; some of us just have these particular ways of coping that look poised, righteous, and convinced.
On Sunday morning I woke up feeling something like what the monastics called "desolation." Maybe I'd read too much of the wrong things, maybe I hadn't slept well, maybe some subterranean reservoir of irritation was rupturing the surface. I don't know. But whatever I am supposed to be doing with my work and my faith appeared very far off. I went for a run, as I try to do every Sunday morning. And unusually, I prayed as I ran–just the decades of the rosary–if for no other reason than to occupy my mind, or to hold it vacant for a better moment.
Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah! For flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my Father in heaven. And I tell you, you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of Hades will not prevail against it.
I take very seriously Jesus's insistence that "flesh and blood" did not make him known, that it wasn't some personal excellence or attunement of Peter's that revealed the answer to his question. We're really, truly not capable of it. The humblest truths can snap us like a twig. We could never measure, we could never even guess at, the patience, forbearance, humility, and forgiveness everyone is needing from us at any given moment. Or, for that matter, the illusions and compromises we rely on to get through our own day. Behind the avatar is someone who really needs help. Behind the stone images and somber icons is a man whose flesh and blood could not know the Messiah. Who a few verses later is a stumbling block, a "Satan" to the Lord he loves so desperately.
So as I work toward this weekend's sermon I will try to remember to pray in particular for those people whose virtual presence I find especially vexing. I ask your prayers for me as well.
I can only respond to your desolation with this delicious salad recipe.
Slice cabbage and onion. Mix the butter with the noodles, sunflower seeds and almonds, and toast on a cookie sheet in a 325° oven for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden brown.
Boil dressing ingredients, and cool in the refrigerator. At serving time, whisk the dressing and combine with cabbage, onions, and toasted mixture.
