on the 7 June, 2017.
Recently, British Airways suffered such a serious IT issue that there were no flights for nearly 24 hours, on one of the busiest single days of the year. What will be remembered will be the pictures of delayed passengers, waiting in very orderly queues that snaked out of the terminal, along the taxi ranks and out into the car park. Listening to what passengers were saying, to reporters and on social media, their frustration and increasing anger was less about the delays and more directed at the lack of any communication they were receiving from the airline; they wanted to know what was happening, why it was happening and an idea about when it was going to be resolved. It was the hottest day of the year, families were going on holiday and one man interviewed was taking his mother abroad to celebrate her 80th birthday – and they hadn't even been offered a bottle of water. Lack of any available staff at the airport to talk to, added to the perception that the airline had contempt for their customers.
The big issue here isn't the IT failure. Things will go wrong and continue to go wrong; It's the level of displeasure the customers experienced and the little or no communication they received from British Airways that is the problem.
Modern expectations are at such a level that when 24 hour delivery of an item ordered on-line gets closer to 36 hours, then we are dissatisfied. Customer expectations are always rising – the cliché that today's added value is tomorrow's expectation has never been truer, particularly to a generation that expects instant gratification.
But if communicated with properly, people are surprisingly understanding when there are failures in systems, deliveries don't arrive on time and things go wrong.
Great customer care isn't created by laying down rules or setting up a process; customers are best served by staff free to use their common sense; Timpson's which has survived and thrived on the High Street while other businesses have disappeared, has done so by being close to their customers and empowering all branch staff to make decisions for them. Branch staff also have total freedom to serve each individual customer in the way they want (and as a customer, that shows every time I go into any of their shops) and have the authority to spend up to £500 for a complaint without approval from the boss.
The airline staff apparently couldn't or wouldn't even offer a free bottle of water to stranded passengers; they can't all have been fixing the IT. Nor the CEO, who chose to make a You Tube video to say sorry rather than be interviewed on live television.
So, in today's world communication becomes even more critical: the Chairman of the ENO, Harry Brünjes, recently said, "The one thing that unites all the disciplines I've worked in is good communication – be it in order to ready yourself for a performance backstage, or having the right answers on figures in the boardroom". Communication to customers by front line service providers – and communication between different departments and functions that support the external customer- is critical.
Communicating with customers – from greeting them (whether in person, on the phone or by email) to understanding their needs, issues, explaining the what and the why – and ensuring the customer has been heard and understood, should be easy. When there is bad news to deliver, service providers sometimes hope that the problem will go away or not be noticed; they in turn disappear, put their phone onto voicemail or don't respond to emails. So the problem escalates and the result can be a cost to the business, future business (lack of – we all have choice) and damage to the company's reputation.
The skill of giving bad news, of being honest – and sincere – with the customer is one that can be learnt and applied to great effect.
At Miradorus we believe communication is the hidden secret to business success and we are on a crusade to help everyone understand how communication affects us inside and out. If you'd like to know more about how to communicate more powerfully and effectively just drop us a line.
Delivering service excellence is paramount in today's interactive marketplace. The old adage that 'good news travels fast' has never been so true but we all know bad news travels even faster. A disgruntled customer is now just a click away from sharing their experience with hundreds of others. Customer loyalty isn't what it used to be either, with those dissatisfied simply taking their business elsewhere. Poor service is cited as the number one reason why customers switch their allegiance. Businesses that succeed in satisfying their customers must go the extra mile and take ownership of the customers' issues. Every member of staff can make a difference to the customer experience, ensuring a positive first impression in every interaction, asking the right questions at the start to ensure a complete understanding about what the customer really wants. This is where we come in. Click here to read more about how we deliver service excellence.
Helping organisations, teams and individuals learn what, why and how to change their service culture is at the heart of the Miradorus methodology. We have 20 years' experience working with our clients – across multiple market sectors – to improve service effectiveness, through training, development and consultancy. Ninety-five per cent of our work is referrals based so if we don't help you succeed, we don't either.
Assessment – continuous measurement of how effective the training has been.
Each workshop is highly interactive. We ensure that participants understand a new skill before they are asked to put it into practice in a non-threatening learning environment. We then give them the chance to apply the new skill in real, day-to-day situations. In our experience, repeated practice of skills and behaviours is the only way they can reliably be taken back to the job.

In 2020, Nakayama passed a bill changing the name of Tonoshiro (a locale in Ishigaki) to "Tonoshiro Senkaku", as the Senkaku Islands are a de facto part of Tonoshiro in an administrative sense. This was immediately condemned by both China and Taiwan, who also claim sovereignty over the Senkaku Islands (also known as Diaoyu Islands).

how was sagittarius a formed
Take the Sagittarius out, in the open air - that should do the trick, most of the time. Crotus and Chiron were both exceptions to their races, being instead gifted in the arts and sciences and were knowledgeable and polite to humans. Accomplishing what was previously thought to be impossible, a team of international astronomers has captured an image of a black hole's silhouette. The Sumerian name Pabilsag is composed of two elements – Pabil, meaning 'elder paternal kinsman' and Sag, meaning 'chief, head'. James B. Kaler, Prof. Return from Sagittarius Myth to the Constellation Myths page. It is one of the 48 constellations listed by the 2nd-century astronomer Ptolemy and remains one of the 88 modern constellations. [5], Zeta Sagittarii (ζ Sgr) ("Ascella"), with apparent magnitude 2.61 of A2 spectra, is actually a double star whose two components have magnitudes 3.3 and 3.5. By March, Sagittarius is rising at midnight. In Sagittarius A*. However, perhaps due to the Greeks' adoption of the Sumerian constellation, some confusion surrounds the identity of the archer. It is hidden behind the Sun's glare from mid-November to mid-January and is the location of the Sun at the winter solstice (December 21). How metals are formed?

But no, there is simply no way that any single star could ever mass [math]4000000\, M_\odot. Nova Sagittarii 2015 No. These same stars originally formed the bow and arrow of Sagittarius.[3]. Sagittarius A* is a compact, extremely bright point source. The radio source consists of the supernova remnant Sagittarius A East, the spiral structure Sagittarius A West, and a bright compact radio source at the centre of the spiral structure, called Sagittarius A*. The myth behind Sagittarius actually refers to Crotus, a satyr that lived on Mount Helicon with the Muses. Crotus, much like Chiron, was a skilled musician and hunter. Was Milky Way formed after Sagittarius A Explosion? Sagittarius famously points its arrow at the heart of Scorpius, represented by the reddish star Antares, as the two constellations race around the sky. To complete the teapot metaphor, under good conditions, a particularly dense area of the Milky Way can be seen rising in a north-westerly arc above the spout, like a puff of steam rising from a boiling kettle. [5] Or, as an alternative tradition holds, that Chiron devised the constellations Sagittarius and Centaurus to help guide the Argonauts in their quest for the Golden Fleece. Add to this the individual requirements of your Sagittarius male. In Greek mythology, Sagittarius is usually identified as a centaur: half human, half horse. They observed that when G2 got close to Sagittarius … They both were known to hunt with a bow and arrow (though this is a bit misleading as centaurs did not traditionally use a bow and arrow. This makes it a powerful grounding stone. It lies in the direction of Sagittarius constellation, near the border with Scorpius. Other than Virgo, the Sagittarius myth is probably the most commonly misinterpreted of all of the constellation myths.. [5], The arrow of this constellation points towards the star Antares, the "heart of the scorpion", and Sagittarius stands poised to attack should Scorpius ever attack the nearby Hercules, or to avenge Scorpius's slaying of Orion. Instead, the brightest star is Epsilon Sagittarii (ε Sgr) ("Kaus Australis," or "southern part of the bow"), at magnitude 1.85. Most interpretations conclude that the mythology of Sagittarius refers to the centaur Chiron, who was accidentally shot by Hercules (Greek mythology) with a poison arrow. Asked by Wiki User.

The very center of our Galaxy in the core of the bulge is located in the direction of the constellation Sagittarius. α Sgr (Rukbat, meaning "the archer's knee"[6]) despite having the "alpha" designation, is not the brightest star of the constellation, having a magnitude of only 3.96. A study was done with the measured parallaxes and motions of 10 massive regions in the Sagittarius spiral arm of the Milky Way where stars are formed. In 1999 a violent outburst at V4641 Sgr was thought to have revealed the location of the closest known black hole to Earth,[22] but later investigation increased its estimated distance by a factor of 15.

how was sagittarius a formed 2020


Hitchin and Harpenden MP Bim Afolami has been appointed a parliamentary private secretary in the Department for Transport.
Mr Afolami, who has just returned to Westminster after the summer break, said he was delighted to announce his acceptance of the role – which will see him working with ministers headed by Transport Secretary Chris Grayling.
Parliamentary private secretaries act as a minister's contact with MPs. The post is often seen as the starting point for MPs with ministerial aspirations.
Hitchin, Harpenden and the surrounding stations were some of the worst-hit amid the chaotic roll-out of a new timetable from May onwards.
Last week Mr Afolami joined fellow Tory MPs Heidi Allen, Stephen McPartland and Jonathan Djanogly in signing a letter to Mr Grayling calling for the upcoming rail fare increase to be delayed until "passengers have experienced three months of a reliable, sustained service that meets the levels expected due to the May timetable change".
The letter quoted Network Rail statistics citing the Great Northern line, which serves Hitchin, as performing far below the national average.
It added: "Statistics only give a partial picture. The concentrated human cost of these percentages is played out in the massive impact that these delays and cancellations have had on our constitutents; missed business opportunities; lost work time; resignations; missed children's bedtimes; stress-related illnesses; additional expense incurred through added travel arrangements. The toll has been huge.
In response to the letter, Hitchin Labour chairman John Hayes asked Mr Afolami on Twitter for clarification as to what would constitute a "reliable, sustained service", and what Mr Afolami would do if Mr Grayling failed to make Great Northern operator Govia Thameslink deliver this.
Mr Afolami is yet to respond to Mr Hayes' questions.

WASHINGTON -- Experience on the battlefield helped earn Gen. Joseph Martin the nomination to the Army's second highest military rank.
Martin was sworn in as the Army's 37th vice chief of staff in a Pentagon ceremony Friday, following a steady progression of the service's senior leadership into higher positions within the Department of Defense.
Gen. Mark A. Milley, the Army's chief of staff, said Martin's extensive time in combat during several deployments amply qualified him for the job.
"This is probably one of the top two, maybe three, general officers with combat experience," said Milley, who presided over the ceremony. "He has been in combat at every level of command. This guy's got five combat tours. He's got over 40 months in combat. It's an amazing combat record."
A 1986 graduate of West Point, Martin deployed to Iraq five times including stints as a company commander during Operation Desert Storm, as a battalion and brigade commander during Iraqi Freedom and he commanded the famed 1st Infantry Division at Fort Riley, Kansas.
Martin also served as the commander of the Combined Joint Forces Land Component Command during the pivotal Battle of Mosul, a major multi-national offensive that helped the Iraqi government retake control of the Iraqi city from ISIS forces.
Martin has said that he will continue to emphasize the Army's priorities of readiness, modernization and people, and to recruit the "best and brightest" into the force.
Martin, the Army's former director of Army Staff, succeeds Gen. James C. McConville, who will take over for Milley as the service's chief of staff. Milley and former Army Secretary Mark Esper both received nominations for higher leadership positions within the DOD. The Senate confirmed Milley on July 25 to succeed Marine Gen. Joseph Dunford as chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and President Donald Trump swore in Esper as secretary of defense last week.
A graduate of the U.S. Army War College who holds a master's degree in education, Martin earned such military awards and decorations as the Distinguished Service Medal, Bronze Star Medal with "V" device, the Defense Superior Service Medal, and the Army Commendation Medal with "V" device.
The Michigan native credited his former military mentors and his wife Leann in helping him reach this career milestone, which included a promotion to four-star general. Martin was joined on stage by several fellow members of the West Point class of 1986, including Esper.
"Today is an opportunity … to see what can happen when a family of families, a band of brothers, a lifetime of friends can do when they combine the incredible power of tough love, friendship and care while raising a leader and supporting his family over the course of a lifetime," Martin said.
Serving as the deputy to the Army's chief of staff, the vice chief is charged with the management of the Army staff and the many programs that fulfill the Title 10 responsibilities of the department. The vice chief often will take the duties of the chief of staff when the chief must engage in interservice responsibilities, such as those of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
Milley, who said he has known Martin for nearly 10 years, said Martin's humility and experience were deciding factors in his nomination.
"He's a person of phenomenal character," Milley said. "This is a guy who has a backbone of titanium steel. He's never afraid to speak truth-to-power, but he also does it with class. He does it with dignity, he does it with respect. A beautiful thing about General Martin is that he's a team player and he's incredibly humble."

History of Argentine Tango
June 20, 2013 / Deb Sclar / Tango History / 37 Comments
In the late 1800's, millions of European immigrants arrived on the shores of the Rio de la Plata in South America, in the two port cities of Montevideo, Uruguay and Buenos Aires, Argentina. Most of them were Italian and Spanish, and the vast majority were single young men looking to make their fortunes in America. They brought their music: the sweet sounds of the violin, the driving flamenco guitar, the strange mournful wail of the bandoneon – and their dances: the waltz, the mazurka, the polka – and mixed them with the Argentine folk music and dance, with the Cuban habanera, with the African candombe rhythms from the freed slaves' street parties. With very few women around, many of these young men found themselves looking for excitement in the bordello districts of the burgeoning port cities. The tango dance arose in these seedy waterfront areas from this turbulent mix, becoming a "mating dance" between barmaids and their customers in shady nightclubs. Shunned by the upper and middle classes in Argentina, it nevertheless became a sleazy fixture of urban nightlife in Buenos Aires. Young men in neighborhood gangs would practice the steps with each other in order to become skilled enough to win the attentions of a woman. A beginner would often dance the follower's part for six months to a year before being shown how to lead.
As Argentina became very wealthy around the turn of the century, the sons of rich families would often look for adventure and excitement in the rougher parts of town, and learned the tango as part of their escapades. Some of these young men of privilege would show off the tango as a treat for their friends on their sojourns to Paris, then the cultural capital of the world. The Parisians were shocked and titillated by this raw, sensuous dance. This led to a "tango craze" that swept all of Europe, and reached America in the years just prior to World War I. New York newspapers in 1916 feature ads from over seven hundred tango establishments. While the original tango was disturbing to many arbiters of good taste, a heavily sanitized version of tango found its way into the European and American dance academies, where it remains a fixture in ballroom competitions today.
But in Argentina, the blessings of the tango-mad people of Paris led to an acceptance of the original homegrown tango in all classes of society. Tango musicians found themselves elevated from roughneck street performers to respected and adored composers. The tango dance became the courtship ritual of the middle class. In the '40's, the "Golden Age" of tango, every night found half a million people dancing from midnight until 3 or 4 in the morning. The best tango orchestras would be booked for more than a year in advance. Each neighborhood would feature its own variation of tango, and intense rivalries often turned dance competitions into riots ended by the police. Elaborate unwritten codes of behavior in the "milongas" or dance gatherings became as much a part of tango as the dance itself.
Influenced by the rise of repressive military dictatorships in Argentina after World War II, tango dancing slowly declined in the face of curfews and clampdowns on public gatherings. Tango music developed a rich new concert-hall tradition, more and more removed from the dance. The culture of late-night dancing went underground, and nearly all the regular milongas closed their doors.
Accompanying the return of democracy and social liberalization after the Falklands War of 1982-83, a groundswell of interest in learning to tango surfaced throughout Argentine society. A younger generation of dancers and teachers began reclaiming their tango heritage while re-examining the structural underpinnings of the dance they had inherited. Simultaneously and independently, the Paris debut of "Tango Argentino", a large tango touring stage production, brought the dance back to worldwide awareness. In theatrical reviews reminiscent of the shocked Parisians of two generations before, Broadway, London, and Paris again became enraptured by the smoldering passion in this exotic dance and music, cultivated in far-off Buenos Aires. A new generation of Argentine tango dancers, tango teachers, and tango musicians found receptive audiences for their country's primary cultural export. Audiences first enraptured by the stage spectacle of the big tango shows discovered for themselves the passionate pleasures of the social dance connection, available to anyone willing to invest a minimum of time in learning the silent vocabulary of the dance. Today, major cities around the world (including the Denver/Boulder metro area) feature active tango communities where strangers and acquaintances can once again meet to share the sweetness of "the three minutes that can last a lifetime."

Patricia Gundert says:
I believe this article is full of the misinformation and legends woven around tango's early days. A more fact and research based history of tango can be found in Alberto Paz' Gotta Tango book.
Thanks for responding. I've read Alberto's book, and while it's very fun to read, it is not at all "fact and research-based" in any normal sense sense of the word. His chapter on the history of tango is sixteen pages long, and contains *only one* citation, footnote, quotation, or reference to anything else except his own very strong opinions, which I grant you are expressed in a very entertaining fashion.
If you are truly looking for facts and research about tango, I recommend Beatriz Dujovne's "In Stranger's Arms", Robert Faris Thompson's "Tango – the Art History of Love" (with 29 pages of footnotes and citations), Gustavo Benzecry Saba's "The Quest for the Embrace" (fewer footnotes, but extensive crediting of other's opinions in interviews and quotations) and Christine Dennistons' "The Meaning of Tango".
Kara LM says:
I agree with the above books (Beatriz Dujovne's "In Stranger's Arms", Christine Dennistons' "The Meaning of Tango") but, also I highly recommend, Polly McBride's Tango Quest and Tango and Life. Polly McBride and Beatriz Dujovne know each other personally and live in Portland, Oregon. Beatriz is originally from Buenos Aries and continues to return and dance at the milongas.
This website helped me a lot with my ballroom dancing essay. It was very informational and had many details.
Nony O`Hara says:
I have loved the Tango , am looking to learn.
The lessons are $100.00 each
I hear the closest place to dance, is New York City
I am getting flustered
So I watch it on Utube all nite
Hello Nony – We'd love to help you! Where are you located?
Thank you so much! I am a fifth grader and I am having a ballroom dance performance, and I had to make a SA for if I get chosen to speak about one of the dances we are preforming. This helped so much. Thank you.
Emily C says:
thanks so much for the help i am an 11th grader and it helped me put together my presentation for my Spanish class, i will be teaching them the dance myself and i wish you guys could teach us instead.
Regina Pareigis says:
I'd like to include this summary in our newsletter to get people interested in Tango. I would of course site the source. Is that ok?

We''re not in Kansas anymore! The Tornado has 6 arms that hold four bucket seats which riders control the spin of their individual cars. As the ride begins to spin, the center lifts and swings the cars outward.


Rain in Pohkara and snow and clouds in Jomsom kept us grounded today. While killing 4 hours at the airport this morning, I broke out Google Earth, Chris's route photos from last year and picked Lakpa's brain as we zoomed around the mountain virtually. We came up with a highly detailed route line I'll be loading on my phone and my watch. This is what happens when you take nerds and their toys camping. I'm including a photo of the route we drew but if you like playing along with Google Earth, here is the KMZ file.

MSIG | Parked and Damaged: What Should You Do?
Check your windscreen for any note by a witness or the person who damaged your car. Otherwise, walk around the area and look out for witnesses as well as other vehicles that are damaged. If the area is equipped with CCTV cameras, approach the car park management for a copy. If you have installed an in-car camera, play back the recordings to see if the other party's vehicle registration number is captured. Also, take down the date and time you discovered the damage plus the car park lot number your vehicle was parked in.
If there is no note left behind by the other party, lodge a police report at the nearest police station. Otherwise, drive your vehicle to the nearest IDAC or your insurer's authorised workshops to lodge an accident report.
Note: An accident report is required regardless if you have lodged a police report.
If you have sent your vehicle to your insurer's authorised workshop, let the workshop notify the other party's insurer to get an indication of liability. Alternatively, you may contact the other party's insurer directly and submit any evidence you may have.
What if the other party did not report the accident?
If an insurer receives a claim against their policyholder but have yet to receive the accident report, the insurer will contact their policyholder to lodge a report. If the policyholder fails to report the accident despite his insurer's reminders, the insurer has the option to involve the Traffic Police to remind the policyholder to file the accident report.
Failure to do so by the policyholder is a breach of policy conditions where the insurer is entitled to repudiate liability.
What happens if the other insurer repudiates liability?
If there is a breach of policy conditions such as non-reporting, the other insurer has no choice but to repudiate liability against their policyholder despite available evidence. This also means the insurer is unable to handle your claim against them and will have to direct all claims to their policyholder.
In such cases, you may submit a claim for your vehicle repairs against your own comprehensive motor insurance policy. However, please check your policy as some insurers will have a timeframe for you to submit an own damage claim. Please also check for any applicable policy excess and if the No Claim Discount (NCD) will be affected.
No matter how careful we are in protecting our vehicles, we are also subjected to the actions of other motorists. Although comprehensive motor insurance is more than what is required by law, it is beneficial in the event a claim against another party is not feasible.


The Dieter Family: New Blog Look!
So I did some electronic house cleaning this weekend and updated the old blog. I had some time to get caught up reading the blogs that I love and I thought, why don't I make our blog cute like that? So I started to update it with a new title picture and layout. I also added more links and features. Please feel free to browse to the "Blog Envy" links on the left menu and become as addicted to them as I am. The top menu links are all connections to the other social media that I use, so if you use them too, feel free to follow if you want!
I'm also doing actual house cleaning getting ready for our Colorado VACATION! Yeah! That's right one week without the kiddos, just Jered and I checking out Denver and hanging out with our friend Michele! The last time we went to Colorado was for my brother's beautiful wedding which was in Estes Park.
I like the new look, Shauna! the yellow links are a little hard to read, though... a slightly darker yellow might be easier on the eyes.

Public Enemy's Chuck D: fighting systemic racism "is a long hike and you got to continually go at it"
The rapper also discussed the forthcoming U.S. election
Amy Fielding
Public Enemy's Chuck D has said that fighting systemic racism "is a long hike and you got to continually go at it".
Speaking in a recent interview with The Guardian, Public Enemy frontman Chuck D discussed the forthcoming U.S. election, calling Donald Trump a "half-baked celebrity", the importance of Black women in the fight for racial justice, and his recent fake fued with Flavor Flav.
Discussing the Black Lives Matter movement, which gained traction earlier this year when protests erupted following the death of George Floyd, Chuck D said BLM had "made a difference", but that there was still more work to be done.
"You know, it's a marathon, it's not the 60-metre dash," he said. "To work on systemic racism and all those other ills, man, it is a long hike and you got to continually go at it. It's a constant counterattack."
Chuck D also discussed Public Enemy's 1989, anti-establishment anthem, 'Fight The Power', which saw a surge in streams during the BLM protests, alongside tracks by N.W.A, Beyoncé, and Kendrick Lamar.
In June, Public Enemy released 'State of the Union (STFU)', an Anti-Trump anthem taking aim at the current political climate, on Juneteenth — a holiday commemorating the emancipation of enslaved people in the U.S..

Motorcars – SOLD
1991 Yamaha FZR 1000 'Genesis'
UK delivered, just 3,090 miles in its lifetime and an absolute beauty to behold!
Our Genesis is a tremendously special example with its collector-status mileage and exemplary condition. Capable of 156 mph thanks to its 1002 cc water-cooled 20-valve inline DOHC 4 cylinders, we sincerely doubt the full potential of this motorcycle has ever been attempted, let alone reached…
There are ten MOT's with this motorcycle from 725 miles in 1995/96, to 2,965 miles in 2016 covering sufficient evidence to be confident that the claimed 3090 miles is accurate, although, only a cursory glance at this bike is required to be absolutely certain of its accuracy!
Our motorcycle will shortly be presented for a fresh MOT so you can be assured of its road-worthiness. It received two fresh tyres in January 2016.
Included in the history file is a copy of "Two" magazine from December 2008 where our motorcycle was featured. The article pitted the Yam against a 1991 Suzuki GSX-R 1100M with the six-page story concluding "The FZR1000 is the better machine, history showed this to be the case. It is more sophisticated both internally and externally. It is more modern and refined in every department and scores highly with its looks".
Also included is a spare key, some receipts and invoices, the aforementioned MOT's and a sales brochure, albeit curiously in German…

I have been thinking for a very long time, what makes a man appreciate his woman.

Posted by M Bharath Bhushan in Hyderabad, Rangareddy, SEZ, Telangana.
HYDERABAD: The Government's plans to project the city as an aviation hub received a major boost with the Tata Advanced Systems Ltd (TASL), promising huge investments in the aerospace sector.
The Tata group company has decided to set up its first facility in aerospace engineering at Adibhatla in Ibrahimpatnam mandal, in Ranga Reddy district, where the Government recently notified a 250-acre Special Economic Zone dealing with the aerospace and precision engineering industry. TASL, which has tie-ups with aircraft majors like Boeing, sought a 50-acre plot exclusively for setting up a manufacturing facility with an investment of US $ 2 billion (about Rs. 8,000 crore).
This is the first major investment by the Tata group in the aerospace sector in the State. Works are likely to start immediately after the gazette notification of SEZ is issued by the first week of August. TASL will be the anchor client of SEZ. It will collaborate with other companies, which have tie-ups with the defence establishment.
According to Industries Department officials, the Tata group selected Hyderabad for setting up its facility as an SEZ as it was already notified and land was readily available. It had a bitter experience in Singur (West Bengal) and chose Hyderabad where the process for setting up the facility was hassle-free, they said.
The group is in active collaboration with DLRL, DRDL and BHEL. It can leverage the collaboration further with the new facility. Opening of the defence establishment for private collaboration and the offset clause mandates procurement of at least 30 per cent of products from local/domestic industries.
B. Sam Bob, Principal Secretary, Industries, told The Hindu that TASL, AP Industrial Infrastructure Corporation and Samoha, a cluster of industries like MTAR Technologies, Zetatek Industries Ltd and other aerospace companies, would be co-developers of the SEZ.
HYDERABAD: The Centre has in principle agreed to chief minister Y S Rajasekhara Reddy's proposal to utilise the Begumpet airport for activities like general aviation services and national and international air shows.
The airport was closed for civil aviation on March 23 this year after the Rajiv Gandhi International Airport at Shamshabad became operational.
Interacting with officials on the overall development of the aviation sector from New Delhi, the chief minister said Hyderabad would become India's aviation hub with an international airport, an aerospace & precision engineering SEZ (a first of its kind in the country) coming up near the new airport and Begumpet airport becoming a centre for general aviation services and air shows. He wanted Hyderabad to be marketed as one of Asia's best aviation destinations and transit hub between Europe and China.
Reddy had recently written to Union minister for civil aviation Praful Patel suggesting that the Begumpet airport be used during any national emergency or at any time by the Indian Air Force and other armed forces. It could also be used for general aviation services (other than those relating to commercial aircraft, charter flights, and aircraft hired or operated under commercial arrangements). He had also suggested that the airport could also be used for hosting air shows.
The chief minister's office (CMO) in a press release said that some aerospace industries in Hyderabad had come together and formed Samuha Engineering Industries Limited to promote an aerospace and precision engineering SEZ in the city.
The Centre has already granted permission for a 350-acre aerospace SEZ at Aditya Nagar, Adhibatla village in Ibrahimpatnam mandal of Rangareddy district. Samuha and the APIIC have entered into an MoU to promote the SEZ, which is likely to provide 10,000 jobs.

Q: Android drawable only have image for one dpi If I only have image for xhdpi, and I don't want to create scaled images, I want android automatically scale down when screen density is lower than xhdpi and scale up when screen density is higher than xhdpi. How can I achieve this?
I tried create drawable-xhdpi folder, and put the image into it. However, in layout editor, the image doesn't show up, after I change the folder name to drawable-xxhdpi, the image appears, but too small.
I guess the preview device is xxhdpi so it can't use images in xhdpi, I wonder if same thing happens in real devices?
If so, how can I use only one dpi image and let the system automatically scaled to other dpi?
Edit: I forgot to mention it is used as bitmap item in a layer list used in launch screen windowBackground, since app haven't launched yet, it can't run java code there.

A: You can put your drawable in res/drawable/ folder (without any density qualifier) and then use the ImageView.ScaleType that fits your needs.

A: If you have to use one image that scales well across different densities and screen sizes, then SVG(Scaleable Vector Graphics) is the way to go.That scales pretty good and you wont see pixellation.
Here is all you need to know about Vector Drawables

Let's face it: first kisses are never not awkward. They're not like the movies; there's never any fireworks or pouring rain in the background. Sure, some are better than others. And some are definitely worse than others. We asked college girls all over the country about their worst first kiss experiences and got some pretty cringe-worthy stories.

Modern Pentathlon: What Did I Just Watch?
Perhaps its because I rode in the IHSA during college, and have witnessed similar "oh crap" moments when riders pull 'that horse' whose description reads something to the tune of "hold on and Jesus take the reins", but after watching a clip sent to me by a friend of the 2012 riding portion for the Modern Pentathlon…I am genuinely curious to know why the riding is that horrifically bad.
Um….What…The….Shit? Image courtesy of VC Star.
If you are offended by pictures of terrible riding and some foul language….yea just keep reading anyway.

What is 'Horse Tripping' And Why Should We Ban It?
YouTube seems to be the most effective medium for getting attention for major issues this season: after ABC aired footage from Celebration, a storm of videos from YouTube depicting inhumane behavior towards horses have gone viral and brought more attention to major injustices in the horse world. One of these injustices is 'horse tripping'. Check this video to learn more:
Most recently, it has been argued whether or not the sport should be removed from rodeo shows in Oregon. Already having been pulled from rodeos in Oklahoma, Arizona and Texas, it has been argued that the practice should not be used for entertainment. Its roots originate from a need to quickly capture and contain animals that were not fully tamed yet. In ranch work, an emphasis on humane practice and due diligence is encouraged, but many argue the sport in the show ring is often not humanely pursued: horses sometimes fall directly on their faces and snouts.

Scandal, Walking Horse
UPDATE: The Walking Horse Trainer's Association's New Inspection
Dr. Clem Dussault of the Office of Inspector General and veterinarian Angie Lingl investigate for evidence of soring on this Walking horse. Image courtesy of Knox News.
In the wake of the scandal caused by chemical soring at Walking Horse competitions, The Walking Horse Trainer's Association has claimed they are introducing a "new" test to see if horses have been sored with caustic chemicals. This new test, it is alleged, is not all that different from tests performed by USDA representatives at shows currently. There has been some speculation whether these new tests will actually have an effect on abusers of these horses, or if they are merely a placation. It is alleged that those found abusing Walking horses with soring will have fairly lenient punishment:
"The trainers group said the horses will be tested for caustic and masking agents through special technology. Trainers refusing to submit to the testing will not be allowed to compete in that show and will have their license suspended for two weeks." The Republic
In addition, those found abusing these horses will have their names publicly listed online as animal abusers. In addition to these new tests, the Humane Society of the United States is now offering a reward of up to $10,000 for the names of those suspected to be horse abusers. Whether these new threats will deter the abusive practice of soring in the Walking horse world, is yet to be seen.

Walking Horse National Celebration Scandal Rages On
You may have heard a while back about Pepsi pulling its sponsorship after controversial footage about the Walking Horse National Celebration was aired. If not, take a quick peek at the Humane Society video most of the clips were gathered from below:
After ABC aired the controversial footage, Pepsi pulled its sponsorship from the event entirely and stricter penalties were put in place to prevent further abuse of these horses. The method referred to as 'soring' causes these horses to step higher due to stifling pain, resulting in a more 'fancy' high-stepping gait. It it important to note, however, that not all Tennessee Walking Horses are trained with this method. Thus far four Tennessee Walking Horse handlers have pleaded guilty to horse abuse, and it is expected that this number may steadily rise.

Atrocities At Aqueduct
Since last year, the Aqueduct casino and racetrack in Queens, NY has been experiencing a staggering rate of horse injuries, deaths, and equine contestants are reported to have a staggeringly high number of injections previous to hitting the turf. On March 3rd, three year-old hopeful Wes Vegas took to the track only to break his leg in the first turn and be euthanized. A week previous, four year-old Coronado Heights suffered a fatal breakdown, largely attributed to an 'early degenerative disease'. Horses like these are reported to have received as many as 13 drug injections, many of which are used to mask pain and help sore horses run more comfortably. However, these practices often come with disastrous results.

Horses In Mountain Grove Can Rest Easy
With the recent lifting of the horse slaughter ban, horse lovers everywhere have begun to grit their teeth at the prospect of living in a town where horse slaughter plants could crop up. One such town in southwest Missouri, Mountain Grove, angrily shouted down the prospect of one coming to their town on Tuesday, March 13, 2012. After Sue Wallis and Belgian company Chevideco (please be advised that images of horsemeat are listed on this site) approached the town with the prospect of opening a plant that could slaughter as many as 400 horses for human consumption. Met with outrage, Wallis has stated that she and Chevideco will look elsewhere and look forward to starting production.
Pictured is a Missouri Fox Trotter Stallion, a smooth-gaited breed which originated from the Ozark Foothills.

Its A Rough Week To Be A Horse: HBO's Luck and History Channel's Full Metal Jousting
Still shot from HBO's 'Luck'. Image courtesy of The Atlantic.
HBO's horse racing series 'Luck' faces an unprecedented number of horse deaths on set, raising questions about the treatment and well-being of animals being used in filming. In previous productions, even one horse death was extremely rare, the last known horse to be euthanized during a productionwas in "3:10 to Yuma" from 2007: Luck has lost three horses.As a result, Luck will end its first season abruptly on March 25 after HBO has decided to pull the show entirely. Whether this was due solely to the loss of life, or in combination with its low ratings is still unclear.

The decennial Aarhus conference – August 2015
1975-1985-1995-2005 — the decennial Aarhus conferences have traditionally been instrumental for setting new agendas for critically engaged thinking about information technology. The fifth decennial Aarhus conference, Critical Alternatives, aims to set new agendas for theory and practice in computing for quality of human life.
The conference series is fundamentally interdisciplinary and emphasizes thinking that is firmly anchored in action, intervention, and scholarly critical practice. With the title Critical Computing – between sense and sensibility, the 2005 edition of the conference marked that computing was rapidly seeping into everyday life. In 2015, we see critical alternatives in alignment with utopian principles—that is, the hope that things might not only be different but also radically better. At the same time, radically better alternatives don't emerge out of nowhere: they emerged from contested analyses of the mundane present and demand both commitment and labor to work towards them. Critical alternatives matter and make people reflect.

Students designing for the future
At the Department of Digital Design and Information Studies we help our students to meet the business community and find out what it's like to be an entrepreneur.
For instance, once a year our students are challenged to compose a design that solves a social problem. During this process they gain contact with interest groups, have prototypes developed at design companies, and test the resulting products on a test panel. Finally, they present their designs at a trade fair which is evaluated by experts in entrepreneurship.

New telemedicine research network
Researchers at the Department of Digital Design and Information Studies work on the interaction between people and IT, which is why they have been included in Aarhus University's new focus area: an interdisciplinary telemedicine research network. The main idea of the network is that it should be open and inclusive to ensure that everyone with an interest in telemedicinal solutions can take part – including not only people at Aarhus University, but also companies and other external stakeholders.

Interactive Terracotta Warrior
The researchers at the Department of Digital Design and Information Studies are often involved in external collaboration. For instance, they added an interactive dimension to Moesgaard Museum's exhibition about the terracotta warriors.
To illustrate the fact that the terracotta warriors of emperor Qin Shi Huangdi's tomb were all painted, CAVI in collaboration with Moesgaard Museum made an interactive part of the temporary exhibition, "The First Emperor – China's Terracotta Army", which ran April 1 - September 30, 2015.
