Day 1 - Arusha to Tarangire
Pick up at 8:30 AM from your hotel in Arusha and depart for Tarangire National Park with a picnic lunch for a full day game drive. Tanzania's third largest National park is known for its majestic baobab trees that dot the landscape, dwarfing the animals that feed beneath them. The Tarangire River is the centerpiece of this park which is famous for some of the largest herds of elephants in Africa. Here you may see lion, leopard, cheetah, lesser kudu, buffalo, Oryx, eland, giraffe and zebra. Post the game drive, you will head back to your camp/lodge where a delicious dinner awaits you.
Day 2 - Tarangire
Your day will begin after a breakfast by about 8AM with a full day game drive in Tarangire National Park ahead of you. The national park is extremely famous and special for its diverse landscape and nine different vegetation zones. As you begin your game drive, you will be welcomed by the ancient and gigantic Baobab trees, which make even animals like the giraffe look tiny. The game drive goes on till about late afternoon and includes a small stop for a picnic lunch. The 3,000 Sq Kms park gets its name from the Tarangire river that flows through it. The river attracts a lot of diverse animals and you should be able to spot a lot of elephants, giraffe, lions, antelopes and zebras. If it's your lucky day, you might be able to spot the tree climbing python and the long necked Gerek. The Tarangire National Park has the highest concentration of elephants, which offers a unique chance for you to observe interactions between elephant families. Don't forget to capture this beautiful scenery with your camera ready at hand. Post the game drive, you will head back to your camp/lodge where a delicious dinner awaits you. Have a good night's sleep for tomorrow's adventure.
Day 3 - Ngorongoro Crater Tour (5 Hours) to Arusha
On the last day of your safari, you will have an early start. Finishing up with a quick breakfast you will make an early descent at around 6:30 AM into the crater floor. The Ngorongoro Crater is the world's largest inactive, intact and unfilled volcanic caldera. It has a massive floor of about 260 sq kms with a depth of over 2000 feet. The 5-hour game drive on the crater floor will show you a lot of animal action. Keeping the camera ready is definitely recommended. The African elephant, buffalo, Black rhino, Hippos, Hyenas, Cheetahs and Lions are found in plenty. Post the picnic lunch at the beautiful Hippo pool, you will begin a steep ascend to the top exit of the crater. This is the last leg of your safari, with a 4hr drive left to Arusha. You will be dropped off to your preferred location in Arusha by 6:00 PM in the evening. With an incredible experience and loads of memories to cherish, this is the time you bid goodbye to your team.

Q: XCode 11 : Embedded Binaries Framework Inside Framework Project I made a new framework project that contain other frameworks. In older version of XCode, I can put the other framework in "Embedded Binaries" section in General so whenever it archived it wouldn't show any framework inside the framework file (Umbrella Framework), and whenever I used it in My App, it worked.
In my case, I already updated to XCode 11 and there is no "Embedded Binaries" section in General. If I set the third party framework to "Do Not Embed" and tried it in My App, it crashed because the My App can't find the third party framework.
Is there any best practise for me to make the third party hide inside my framework project ?

A: I already looked for the answer and found this article
Adding a third party framework inside a first party framework in Xcode
So, it said I need to add path of my third party Framework in Build Setting -> Runpath Search Paths & Frameworks Search Paths.
And then I set my third party Framework in General to Do Not Embed, after that I tried to Archive/Run the project and get the Product/Framework and put it in the App.
It worked.

'Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles' Cast Megan Fox Leaving The Sequel?
While a "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" sequel is well on its way, it's been speculated that Megan Fox will no longer appear in it.
The rumor started following her statement in an interview with Screen Rant, saying that there has yet a "real plan" for a sequel.
Contrary to what her "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" co-star said in a separate interview with Flickering Myth.
And when asked if he's still in on "TMNT 2″ Fichtner quickly confirmed.
Variety previously confirmed that a "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" sequel is indeed happening following the box office success the first movie achieved.
Nickelodeon Movies and Paramount Pictures reportedly confirmed that the rumored sequel to the highly successful reptile movie is happening and it will be released on June 3, 2016.
"To know moviegoers are embracing the Turtles with such enthusiasm is everything that we and all our filmmakers have been hoping for," Paramount chairman and CEO Brad Grey said in a statement. "We are thrilled with this weekend's result, the enduring power of this franchise, and the opportunity to make another one," he added upon learning that the film had gaine $65 million on its opening week.
Michael Bay is coming back to produce the sequel with his partner Platinum Dunes. He will be joined by Josh Appelbaum and Andre Nemec to pen and executive produce "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" sequel. Director Jonathan Liebesman, oh the other hand, offers no statement about the project.

There has been a fundamental change in Formula 1 auto racing. After decades at its helm, former F1 supremo Bernie Ecclestone is out as Chief Executive, and Liberty Media has taken over ownership.
For decades Ecclestone, a former race team owner who is now in his late 80s, had been instrumental in molding and shaping Formula 1 into what had become arguably the world's preeminent auto racing series. While there can be little doubt about the technological superiority of Formula 1, competitiveness waned and the drivers were kept at too great a distance from their fans. The popularity of F1 suffered.

NGC 7129 est un amas ouvert situé à environ  de la Terre, dans la constellation de Céphée.

Histoire
NGC 7129 se trouve dans la zone d'une nébuleuse par réflexion découverte par William Herschel le . Elle rend difficile l'observation et l'étude de l'amas NGC 7142 situé juste à côté.

En 2004, des chercheurs de la NASA détectent la présence de « bébés étoiles » âgés d'un million d'années avec le télescope spatial Spitzer. On estime qu'il y a plus de 130 jeunes étoiles dans cette zone. L'image en infrarouge de l'amas est publié au moment de la Saint-Valentin de 2004 et sa forme combinée à sa couleur rouge le font surnommer en anglais , en français « rose cosmique ». Ce rayonnement infrarouge des poussières de l'amas indiquerait la présence de molécules d'hydrocarbures.

Q: J-invariants, Elliptic Curves, Cross Ratio Let $E$ be an elliptic curve in $\mathbb P^2$ and $p$ be any point on $E$. From $p$ we can draw four tangent lines to $E$ and let $\lambda$ be the cross ratio of their slopes. How can we prove that $\lambda$ is independent of $p$?
I saw this in a note on elliptic curves which suggests that from above we can see the j-invariant is really a invariant.
Thanks in advance.

Media Release: CELA'S Clients Intervening in Supreme Court of Canada Municipal Pesticides By-Law Case
Casework, Media Release
child health, cosmetic pesticide use, pesticide bylaws, public health, Supreme Court of Canada (SCC)
Toronto. Late Friday afternoon, Toronto Environmental Alliance, Sierra Club of Canada, Canadian Environmental Law Association, Parents' Environmental Network, Healthy Lawns-Healthy People, Pesticide Action Group Kitchener, Working Group on the Health Dangers of the Urban Use of Pesticides, Environmental Action Barrie, Breast Cancer Prevention Coalition, Vaughan Environmental Action Committee and Dr. Merryl Hammond, represented by Canadian Environmental Law Association, were granted leave to intervene in an appeal to be heard by the Supreme Court of Canada.
In an Order issued February 25, 2000 by Mr. Justice Major of the Supreme Court, the Court allowed the group's intervention application. A similar application by a group of clients represented by the Sierra Legal Defence Fund was also allowed. Mr. Justice Major turned down an application to intervene by the Crop Protection Institute of Canada.
The case involves a by-law passed by the municipality of Hudson, Quebec, to control local use and application of pesticides by homeowners and businesses in the municipality. Two corporations, Chemlawn and Spraytech, applied to court to have the by-law quashed. Their request was denied by the Quebec trial court and denied again by the Quebec Court of Appeal. They were granted leave to appeal the decisions to the Supreme Court of Canada last fall. Friday's intervention decisions means that the Court will be able to consider the submissions of CELA on behalf of its clients before making a decision as to the validity of the by-law.
CELA's client group took what for most of them was the extraordinary step of seeking to intervene because of the potential significance of the Supreme Court of Canada's decision to the ability of municipality's across Canada to enact local pesticides control by-laws.Cosmetic use of pesticides – that is use for lawns and flower gardens – is much greater on a per-acre measure than even agricultural use of pesticides, and yet this is the use that places our children, our pets, our neighbours and ourselves at the greatest risk.
Many of the groups have been working in their local communities for reduced urban pesticide use. The Supreme Court's decision will be relevant, not just to Quebec, but to most provinces in Canada. "Quebec's municipal legislation has a power that is quite similar to Ontario and other provinces, to pass by-laws for the general welfare of their community members. To interpret that legislation so as to restrict municipalities from exercising these powers in the way they think is in the best interests of their residents would have serious repercussions," said Theresa McClenaghan, CELA counsel.

First off, I want to say that Clayton Barker's article on honeybees was very well done. The research was thoroughly sought after, and the writing was easy to understand. This topic isn't well known, and yet it is a serious global issue. I'm glad Barker's article taught people the possible dangers of losing the honeybee. You're a great writer Mr. Barker and i'd like to read more of your work next year.
Some suggestions to improve your work would be to use more meaningful words. Also when your writing I would recommend thinking in a new reader's perspective so that an average person could easily make sense of your writing. Great job overall.
In the May 2015 edition of the school newspaper that arrived today an article titled "ISIS Gains popularity in the US" was published on the second page. While most of the article was adequately written , the statistics given were misleading. If only 180 or so U.S. citizens were known to support the Islamic State extremists, compared with thousands of recruit in Europe and elsewhere, this is a very inconsiderable number among the over 20 million U.S. total population. Therefore, the danger exists but is minimal compared to ones in Europe.
I liked Ginny Creamers article about senior challenges in their final year. The part about unfulfilled expectations and comparison to peers really stood out to me. It's important that Ginny addressed these problems, and it's important that seniors can find a way to be confident in themselves and their decisions. The article about dressing for interviews was interesting as well. I think that for most teen jobs, saying skirts should be at least knee length is a little extreme. I also didn't understand why the article only told women explicitly to dress modestly. While the article told men what to wear, it told women what to cover up. While this seems like a specfic, even petty point, I think it's important to teach people to not be ashamed of their bodies by using more positive language.
I read the article about comparative religion and the discussion about having an optional class at public schools that will teach the students about different religions.
To be honest I think it's a good idea. Back in Spain I go to a Christian school where religion is a required class if you want to graduate. I'm not Christian, my family is, but i don't believe on that, and you really don't need to for that class.
But we live in a world full of different cultures, where people are faithful to different beliefs, and we should learn about it.
A comparative religion class I think it would help to understand the way other people think, students would learn about things they maybe don't agree with, but they'd also learn how to respect them.
That's why I think schools, parents and students should think about it and be open minded.
I read "Hillary Clinton: Campaigning to make history." I like how the article explained who Hillary Clinton was. Also how it informed us on the history of women. Personally I didn't know women had ran before. It is interesting seeing the evolution of women.

Q: What is the coding behind system calls? I'm currently working on a design project that at it's basic form involves changing the frequencies on the different processors to optimize performance.  It's essentially observing how governor's perform and then quantifying the results. Pretty straight forward.
One of the advisers for the project wants my partner and I to provide a more detailed explanation of the system calls.
My understanding is that since the system calls are making changes within the kernel that it's done mostly through hardware.
My adviser believes that the system calls are actually directories.  If that is the case where can I access these directories to examine the code?
For example, can someone explain to me exactly what is being called for this:
system /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_min_freq
Thanks for any information provided.

Pakistan taking action against all militants: US
Islamabad: A top Pakistani security adviser Monday told a visiting US regional envoy that the security forces are targeting all armed groups in the North Waziristan tribal region.
The comments came days after the US commander of NATO-led forces in Afghanistan, Gen. Joseph Dunford, said he has reservations about the overall effectiveness of the army operations in North Waziristan.
Dunford said Pakistani forces have had some success against the Pakistani Taliban and the Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan (IMU) in North Waziristan, but that they certainly has not had the effect against the Haqqani network and others that Washington would want to have seen.
However, Pakistan's Advisor to the Prime Minister on National Security and Foreign Affairs, Sartaj Aziz told outgoing US Special Representative for Afghanistan and Pakistan James Dobbins in Islamabad that Pakistan was taking action again all militants in North Waziristan, Xinhua reported.
"The advisor highlighted Pakistan's monumental effort to address the threat of terrorism and underscored that the military operation was addressing this menace without any discrimination or distinction," a foreign ministry statement said.
Pakistani forces launched a major offensive codenamed "Zarb-e- Azb" against local and foreign militants June 15 and have killed nearly 450 militants.
"The two sides reiterated their resolve to further deepen the bilateral relationship and strengthen mutual consultations on Afghanistan post-2014 with a view to advancing the shared objectives of peace, stability and economic development in the region and beyond," the foreign ministry said.
Aziz welcomed the solution to the election crisis in Afghanistan and appreciated the efforts of US Secretary of State John Kerry, who had contributed to an amicable settlement on election-related issues.
"The advisor also underlined Pakistan's support for a peaceful democratic transition, underscoring its vital importance for stability in Afghanistan and the region," he said and reaffirmed Pakistan's commitment to a peaceful, stable and united Afghanistan.
Dobbins arrived in Pakistan Monday on a farewell visit after meeting President Hamid Karzai in Kabul.
The advisor took the opportunity to laud Ambassador Dobbins' efforts for the promotion of stable, cooperative and durable relations between Pakistan and the US during his term as the special representative to Afghanistan and Pakistan.

Corbeille de fruits (en italien Canestra di frutta) est un tableau de Caravage conservé à la pinacothèque Ambrosienne de Milan.

Historique
La datation exacte de ce tableau est sujette à débats, depuis sa « redécouverte » en 1919 (date de sa réattribution par Longhi ; il passait auparavant pour une œuvre issue des Pays-Bas). Son attribution à Caravage, en revanche, ne pose désormais aucune difficulté. Certains auteurs y ont vu initialement plutôt une œuvre de jeunesse (L.Venturi, Marangoni et Voss) ; Longhi en repousse cependant la datation de quelques années, soit vers 1596-1598. D'autres auteurs penchent pour des dates avoisinantes, parfois plus précoces, généralement plus tardives ; l'échelle va de 1594 à 1602.

Quoi qu'il en soit, il est probable que l'œuvre ait été réalisée lors du séjour de Caravage chez le cardinal del Monte, bien que sa présence soit attestée dans la collection du cardinal Federico Borromeo qui en fait don en 1607 à l'Ambrosienne qu'il venait de créer.

Description
Sur un fond uniforme jaune paille, une corbeille tressée ronde chargée de fruits et de feuilles se détache nettement au centre du tableau, dont elle occupe surtout la partie inférieure ; elle est posée sur un rebord de table, presque en déséquilibre. Fruits et feuillages sont entremêlés, débordant de la corbeille ; un branchage de vigne s'étend vers la droite, jusqu'à sortir du cadre du tableau. Les fruits représentés (pomme, poire, figues, raisins, pêche) sont mûrs, voire trop mûrs pour certains. De même, certaines feuilles sont fraîches, mais d'autres paraissent déjà fanées. Beaucoup de marques d'imperfection (traces d'insectes ou de maladies végétales diverses) sont rendues avec une grande précision et sans chercher du tout à enjoliver la réalité.

Analyse

Il s'agit là de la seule nature morte incontestablement attribuée à Caravage. C'est un tableau qui touche beaucoup son propriétaire le cardinal Borromeo, de même que del Monte qui en aurait eu  ; mais elle marque aussi les artistes contemporains de Caravage, qui ne manqueront pas d'en réaliser de nombreuses copies. Cette façon de représenter une nature morte à hauteur du regard, en trompe-l'œil, est en effet peu courante bien que ce type de nature morte autonome sans lien avec des figures soit déjà une pratique courante en Lombardie.

Le trou de ver dans la pomme, les fruits trop mûrs et les feuilles déchirées montrent que le traitement de cette nature morte la fait tendre vers une vanité, renforcée par le  du fond jaune paille, ce fond doré qui constitue pour Francesca Cappelletti un . Les feuilles peuvent ainsi résumer le cycle de la vie : du haut en bas et de gauche à droite, on les voit passer de la fraîcheur au dessèchement et à la mort.

Même si d'autres tableaux, dans les débuts de la carrière de Caravage, présentent des ensembles de fruits (Garçon pelant un fruit, Garçon avec un panier de fruits…), le lien le plus évident dans son œuvre est à établir avec le Souper à Emmaüs de Londres, où une corbeille très semblable est posée également en déséquilibre au bord de la table. Cet élément est l'un de ceux qui font pencher pour une datation plus tardive du tableau.

Alfred Moir fait remarquer que la toile au départ était plus allongée : l'analyse aux rayons X révèle qu'une frise de putti et de rinceaux y figurait auparavant, mais que Caravage en a coupé l'extrémité pour renverser la toile, l'apprêter et y peindre la corbeille de fruits avant d'ajouter le fond.

Postérité
Le tableau fait partie des « 105 œuvres décisives de la peinture occidentale » constituant le musée imaginaire de Michel Butor.

Brian Wilson of the Beach Boys has disavowed a concert staged at a Donald Trump fundraiser in California on Sunday, insisting that neither he nor Al Jardine support the president in any way.
Wilson, 78, formed the band with his brothers Dennis and Carl, their cousin Mike Love, and their friend Al Jardine.
Dennis died in 1983 aged 39, and Carl in 1998, aged 51.
Following Carl's death Love, now 79, was given permission to tour as the Beach Boys, and it was his band that played on Sunday for the president.
'We have absolutely nothing to do with the Trump benefit today in Newport Beach. Zero,' Wilson and Jardine told Variety through a spokesperson.
Parler, the social media network of choice for the Proud Boys, says its activity tripled during the debate where Trump mentioned the group
Parler is a social media platform popular with Trump supporters and used by the right-wing Proud Boys group.A Parler spokeswoman told Business Insider that the site saw "a very large user spike during and after the debate," and that traffic rose to "about 3x normal load.

Wilson's rise brings back memories of BYU's time as QB U
A generation of college football fans grew up knowing BYU as QB U. Cougars quarterbacks consistently became first-round NFL draft picks and Heisman Trophy contenders in the 1970s, '80s and '90s. Under innovative coach LaVell Edwards, BYU offenses helped lay the foundation for today's pass-happy game. For the first time in a long time, BYU has that kind of quarterback again. With the help of a former Cougars QB, Zach Wilson is conjuring up memories of Jim McMahon and Steve Young in Provo, Utah.

The last time all the surviving members performed together as the Beach Boys was for a 50th anniversary tour in 2012.
Wilson and Jardine have previously attempted to distance themselves from the Trump family.
In February the pair signed a Change.org petition after Love booked a headlining gig at the Safari Club International Convention in Reno, Nevada, where Donald Trump Jr, a hunting fan, was the keynote speaker.
'This organization supports trophy hunting, which both Al and I are emphatically opposed to,' Wilson said in a statement at the time.
'There's nothing we can do personally to stop the show, so please join us in signing the petition.'

'I don't have anything negative to say about the president of the USA,' Love said in a 2017 interview with Uncut magazine.
'We did attend the inauguration. That was a moving experience.
'I understand there are so many factions and fractious things going on – the chips will fall where they may.
'But Donald Trump has never been anything but kind to us. We have known him for many a year. We've performed at some of his venues at fundraisers and so on.'
Wilson and Jardine join a long list of musicians objecting to the president, and his use of their music.
In June relatives of the late Tom Petty objected to Trump playing Petty's 1989 song 'I Won't Back Down' at his first rally since March.
'Trump was in no way authorized to use this song to further a campaign that leaves too many Americans and common sense behind,' wrote his daughters Adria and Annakim, and his two former wives, Dana and Jane Petty.
Petty, who was a staunch guardian of his own artistic control, died in October 2017, aged 66, from an accidental overdose of prescription drugs.

Top of the list of those musicians who have complained are the Rolling Stones, whose song 'You Can't Always Get What You Want' was a feature of his 2016 campaign, and has now become something of an anthem for his supporters.
The Stones have tried, and failed, to make the campaign stop using it.
Others who have objected to their music being used by Trump at rallies include Pharrell Williams, R.E.M., Aerosmith, Neil Young, Adele, Rihanna and the Village People.

Salary of an Ambulance Nurse
Stress & Work
By Aurelio Locsin
CNA Vs. EMT
LPN Vs. EMT
Job Description of an Intermediate EMT
Does a Surgical Technician Make More Than an LPN?
Description of a Vocational Nurse
Ambulance services employed over 155,000 people, as of May 2011, with average wages of $16.44 per hour or $34,190 per year, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Positions included the managers, secretaries and accountants you would find in any industry, plus those specific to ambulances themselves such as emergency medical technicians and nurses. Salaries for the latter varied according to nursing designation.
Ambulance nurses provide critical care to patients until they reach a hospital. They are often assisted by paramedics. The work can be physically strenuous and can involve kneeling, bending, crouching and lifting while caring for patients. It can also be highly stressful because it involves life-or-death situations. Ambulance nurses may work more than the standard 40-hour week, including overnight and weekends, because emergencies can happen at any time. They may also work for other employers at the same time, such as in hospital emergency rooms.
Registered nurses in ambulance services provide medical services, and record symptoms and treatments. They observe patients, operate medical equipment, perform diagnostic tests, and consult with paramedics and doctors. Their education can come from a bachelor's of science in nursing, an associate degree in nursing, or a diploma from an approved nursing program. All states mandate that RNs be licensed, and licensure requires graduation from an approved program and passing the National Council Licensure Examination. Registered nurses in ambulance services earned a mean $33.36 per hour or $69,400 as of May 2011 according to the BLS.
LPNs/LVNs
In ambulance services, licensed practical nurses or licensed vocational nurses provide basic medical care, typically under the supervision of doctors, registered nurses and paramedics. They monitor patient health such as checking blood pressure, ensure that patients are comfortable, report medical status to paramedics and doctors, and perform basic medical tasks such as changing bandages. They must complete an approved program, which normally takes a year. They must also have a license, which requires passing the National Council Licensure Examination for Practical Nurses. Licensed practical and licensed vocational nurses in ambulance services averaged $19.39 per hour or $40,320 per year in 2011.
The BLS predicts that jobs for all RNs will increase at 26 percent and that positions for all LPNs/LVNs will grow at 22 percent. These include positions in ambulance services. Compare this to the 26 percent growth for health treating practioners and health technologists, and the 14 percent expected for all occupations in all industries. An aging population that requires more medical attention, and emergency transport will drive much of the demand. Technological advancements are also allowing treatments for a wider array of conditions, both during and after emergencies.

More than 160 scouts, adult volunteers, parents and carers from Flitwick enjoyed a fun and activities at a weekend camp at Great Barford.
The activities included archery, climbing, fire lighting, kayaking and making and launching water rockets. Parents and carers had a chance to activities such as craft, making water rockets and building chariots, with their children. One of the highlights of the weekend was the children encouraging their parents to get to the top of the climbing wall. A favourite activity for the children was "water wars" where they used tennis racquets to try to return some of the water-filled balloons to the other team.

Work starts on new town centre enterprise hub in Stafford's Shire Hall
In LatestNews
Work to fit out a new enterprise hub providing workspace for over 20 small businesses in Stafford's Shire Hall has begun.
The £2million project will see the area of the building which formerly housed the town's library transformed into the fully serviced business hub. Like the county council's other enterprise centres, it will offer office space, reception facilities, meeting areas, networking opportunities and business advice and support.
The hub will aim to attract businesses from a range of professional services including solicitors, ICT firms and digital/tech businesses. It offers an ideal town centre location, close to amenities like the railway station. Work is scheduled to be completed in early 2022.
Initial phases will see the historic features restored and remodelling works carried out to bring this building up to modern day office standards, whilst maintaining the character and history of the building.
A total of £1.6million has been secured from the national Getting Building Fund through the Stoke-on-Trent and Staffordshire Local Enterprise Partnership. The remaining cost will be met by the county council or other available funding sources.
Bringing part of the Shire Hall back into productive use will help revitalise Stafford town centre by bringing in new businesses. This project will form part of the wider long-term regeneration of the Shire Hall. It will also complement plans to repurpose and redevelop land occupied by vacant buildings – including the former magistrates court and county council's own Wedgwood Building – off Eastgate Street.
Staffordshire County Council's cabinet member for economy and skills Philip White said: "The Shire Hall is an iconic building in the heart of Stafford town centre and it is important that we brought it back into productive use for the community and the local economy. We're pleased to see work to fit out the enterprise hub beginning. We anticipate work to progress quickly and all being well should see a summer 2022 finish.
"Much consideration has gone into the planning of the hall's future use and our evidence and research has shown there is a need for provision in the town for small businesses. The enterprise hub facility will be in the former library area to the rear of the building and include all the facilities our target businesses will need. It will follow the model of our other enterprise centres with flexible tenancies and a support team on site.
"A thriving enterprise hub in the Shire Hall will benefit the wider town centre economy and recent investment and planned regeneration undoubtedly make Stafford an attractive place to work and live. How we repurpose our town centres will be critical as we move out of the pandemic period."
Stoke-on-Trent and Staffordshire Local Enterprise Partnership chairman Alun Rogers said: "The former library space in the Shire Hall will provide ideal space for small businesses and support the town centre economy, particularly as it recovers from the pandemic period. It is a priority to the LEP to support small businesses and ensure they can operate in the right environment to enable them to thrive.
"The Getting Building Fund is aimed at projects which are ready to go and can make a difference as soon as possible. Transforming the vacant space at the Shire Hall in to an entrepreneurial and collaboration hub is ideal and we look forward to working with our partners to bring it to life."
Frances Beatty, cabinet member for economic development and planning at Stafford Borough Council, said: "We're pleased to see the start of the renovation of the Shire Hall. This will be a centrepiece for the renaissance of popular community events and gatherings in the Market Square and indeed across the town, in the post Covid world. The Shire Hall forms an integral part of the wider work that the borough council is leading on – including the Station Gateway and regeneration of the town centre."
Shire Hall
Following £1.6 million funding boost, Staffordshire County Council are creating a new hub for start-up and small businesses in the centre of Stafford Town Centre.

This is a one-man farming operation . I grow grain and bean crops using organic methods and materials. Currently everything is grown on a fifth-generation farm in Wheatland, California where there is abundant flat land.
My name is Reed Hamilton, and my wife Judy and I have lived in Grass Valley for 25 years and are the parents of two adult sons who grew up here. I have been in business here for all of that time, though I returned to farming in 2007. We have a wide circle of friends here and a strong commitment to our community.
I began Grass Valley Grains as a way to provide a source of wholesome, locally grown grain and grain products to local consumers. I chose to grow grains because I grew up on a grain farm and because I love bread, which seems such an elemental food. I am committed to growing food in a way that builds the soil and produces nutritious crops without the use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides. I want to educate people about the properties of what they eat and the many grain crops that are available besides wheat.My mission is to find ways in which conservation agriculture can be practiced in a chemical-free system. I am building soil health, reduce greenhouse gasses, and trying to make it profitable.
How Can You Buy Grain?
Currently, all sales are farm direct in bulk.

Een reflexhamer is een neurologisch onderzoeksinstrument, vooral gebruikt door neuroloog en huisarts. De reflexhamer wordt gebruikt om spierrekkingsreflexen, bijvoorbeeld de achillespeesreflex en kniepeesreflex, op te wekken in het kader van neurologisch onderzoek.

De hamer bestaat in verschillende vormen. Vaak lijkt hij wat op een bijltje met een bot rubberen kop; er bestaan ook vormen waarbij loodrecht op een steel een ronde schijf is geplaatst met een rubber rand.

De kop van de hamer moet voldoende massa hebben (circa vijftig gram) om een stevig tikje uit te kunnen delen maar toch zacht genoeg zijn om geen pijn te veroorzaken. Vaak zijn in het handvat nog een of meer andere instrumenten opgenomen zoals een neurologische naald om de pijnzin, of een kwastje om de sensibiliteit te testen. Gebruik van een dergelijke speld zonder deze na iedere patiënt te steriliseren wordt echter om hygiënische redenen niet aanbevolen.

Done Deal
ISBN: Highshore Publications
All is far from well in what claims to be the world's 'most liveable' city…
As former British secret service agent Bromo Perkins tries to establish an anonymous life as a travel agent in Melbourne, Australia, he finds himself being blackmailed into resolving murderous turf wars between property developers.
The trouble starts for Bromo – who blends hard-man machismo with a soft touch with the ladies – when he is presented with a photo of himself in flagrante delecto with Aurelia Nuyen, whose husband Gerry is one of said developers.
But besides art gallery owner Aurelia, there is Fiona, the beautiful minder of Gerry's arch-rival Peter Rasheed, a punky Goth who works at the town hall, a high-ranking copper called Delia and a nightclub bouncer named Sonia.
The question is, can Bromo keep all these ladies sweet as he uncovers an unholy mess of bribery, corruption and death as he tracks through the city's less-than-savoury underbelly – a journey that reveals much about its seamy past and present.
Done Deal will give all crime thriller addicts a fix to remember in this roistering adventure through the inner suburbs of Melbourne – a city they will come to feel is strangely familiar.
Praise for Tony Berry:
"Done Deal, set in the mean streets of inner-city Richmond, is a gripping crime story"
– Nicole Lindsay, the Herald Sun
"Richmond is lovingly and accurately rendered."
"Bromo's dialogue is pretty snappy and he's a man of action. This was fun and I'm glad I ordered a copy."

La torre della solitudine è un romanzo di Valerio Massimo Manfredi del 1997.

Trama

Philip Garrett è un giovane archeologo che crede che il padre, Desmond, sia morto in una delle sue esplorazioni nel quadrante sud-orientale del deserto del Sahara. Un giorno però scopre un messaggio lasciatogli molto tempo prima dal padre, contenente indizi sulle proprie ricerche, e decide di seguire le sue tracce. Lungo il suo cammino troverà numerosi ostacoli, in particolare quando cercherà di ottenere un libro, custodito nella Biblioteca Vaticana, che il padre consultò a suo tempo. Nel corso della storia, scoprirà che lo scopo del padre era trovare un luogo misterioso situato in mezzo al deserto, detto Torre della solitudine, una fortezza difesa da un popolo leggendario, i Blemmi. Philip avrà inoltre una storia d'amore con Arad, un'affascinante donna del deserto, anche lei in cerca della Torre.

Nel frattempo, altri personaggi sono in cerca del sito leggendario: uno è un prete, inviato da Padre Boni nel deserto per registrare un misterioso messaggio ultraterreno, grazie ad un apparecchio appositamente creato da Guglielmo Marconi. L'altro è Selznick, un criminale di guerra, convinto che le sue ferite, che sembrano essere maledette al punto di non rimarginarsi mai completamente, saranno sanate da colui che abita nella Torre, che lui definisce Signore della solitudine, o L'uomo dalle sette tombe.

Altri media
Nel 1998 dal romanzo è stato tratto un film per la TV intitolato I guardiani del cielo, con Peter Weller. Sebbene ispirato al romanzo, sia i personaggi che la trama sono diversi.

Fossils in Disguise
November 17, 2015 April 17, 2016 / pseudoplocephalus
As July progressed into August and we neared the end of our field season, it was time to start hauling blocks back to camp and closing down quarries. This is Suicide Hill, a spot I didn't work at very much but which contains lots of juvenile Eolambia. Lindsay has a great system for bringing large blocks back to camp with people-power only, since we cannot use vehicles at many of our sites. We strap them with ratchet straps to a backboard (or what everyone else was calling a sled, but it's a backboard guys! We were totally prepared for spinal injuries!). This way, 4-8 people can lift large jackets with relative ease and less potential for back injury. I think this jacket was somewhere over 500 pounds.
Closing down quarries also means Khai and Haviv and I got to haul gear back to camp, like pry bars and crack hammers and water jugs and all kinds of other heavy things. WHAT FUN.
We had started a new quarry called Mini Troll relatively late in the season after the sauropod site was largely completed. Lisa had found this spot last year and it looks like it contains a very nice small ornithischian, possibly something a bit like Orodromeus in general shape and size. It's not articulated, but it looks like a lot of it is in this little lens of sandstone.
Also, I found a TOOTH! Maybe from Siats?
Mini Troll kept getting bigger and bigger and bigger and we were starting to run out of time.
That meant we had a couple of nights where we ate dinner at the quarry to save time. Did you know that mayonnaise tastes great in leftover chili? (This is probably my favourite photo from the whole field season – what a great moment of collegiality and teamwork and friendship.)
Click to embiggen this sort of ok panorama of Mini Troll at about 9pm at night!
By the final morning, Mini Troll had gotten so big that we felt we couldn't really call it 'mini' anymore, and so while the site is still Mini Troll, the jacket was dubbed Megatron. We were finishing the final layers of plaster at about 8am on the last day.
Megatron weighed over 600 pounds and needed to go up this extremely steep hill without many footholds. I still can't believe we got it up successfully and with, ultimately, minimal hassle or terror.
And that finishes off my overdue fieldwork posts! If you find yourself in Raleigh, come visit Megatron! He's hanging out in the window of the prep lab and Lindsay and Lisa just started to open it up a week or so ago. I think it's going to be pretty cool!

6 thoughts on "Fossils in Disguise"
Possible Siats tooth–great find! Interestingly, wiki indicates Siats was coeval with Eolambia, both about 98 Ma. Abydosaurus was older–c 104 Ma or Albian instead of Cenomanian. Siats, furthermore may have been a tyrannosauroid instead of a neovenatorid. If a tyrannosauroid, it was probably ecologically associated with Eolambia, just like later tyrannosaurids went after hadrosaurs. At 6-9m Eolambia would've been worthwhile prey for the big Siats.
Source for Siats as a tyrannosauroid? (And not just Wikipedia!). Is it a reliable, published paper that everyone can evaluate?
Well wiki did cite this:
Novas et al. 2012 "Megaraptorans as members of an unexpected evolutionary radiation of tyrant-reptiles in Gondwana."
Tyrannosauroid affinities wouldn't be at all surprising, considering Siats lived alongside Eolambia, not Abydosaurus. Tyrannosauroids had lived alongside hadrosauroids at least as far back as Yixian/Barremian time, when Yutyrannus faced Bolong. I think Abydosaurus probably was up against some big as yet unnamed carcharodontosaur, closely related to A. atokensis which lived several million years earlier.
Oh btw the paper by Novas et al. was in Ameghiniana 49 (Suppl.) R33.
Right, the point I'm making is that the Novas et al. result is currently only available as an abstract (as far as I know), which is a short summary of a research project used when you're giving a conference presentation. I don't think the results of that study have been published as a full, peer-reviewed paper yet, which means we can't assess the quality of the results. I'm not saying that their result is necessarily wrong, and it is certainly interesting, but it is preliminary, and we need to wait for a paper in order to be able to look at their dataset and decide whether or not we agree with it.
In your comment of November 10, you mentioned the Mussentuchit has "the first appearance of things like tyrannosaurs" (in North America). If tyrannosauroid remains occur at the same level as Siats 98.5 Ma, that would be suggestive. 🙂 It's probable given the association of tyrannosauroids and hadrosauroids–Eolambia is the same age.

Q: RhinoMocks mock method without return I am new to mocking. I need to mock method (it doesn't have return value). I cannot find any examples of how to mock a method. I need to mock ITempDa.Import method.
 var stub = MockRepository.GenerateStub<ITempDA>();
 stub.Stub(x => x.Import(param1)). ???

 public void MockedImport() {
    // some processing here
 }

ITempDa.Import should be mocked and instead some internal method "MockedImport" should be called.

A: As @JamesLucas said you don't need to use Return() method(you should use this method only when your method is not void).
In this case you should use the Do() method:
var stub = MockRepository.GenerateStub<ITempDA>();
stub.Stub(x => x.Import(Arg<object>.Is.Anything))
                .Do(new Action<object>(o => MockedImport()));

or if MockedImport ths same arguments as Import:
stub.Stub(x => x.Import(Arg<object>.Is.Anything))
                .Do(new Action<object>(MockedImport);

You should use WhenCalled method when the method under test called your fake and you want to intercept the execution(execute something + change return value/change arguments/do additional steps and etc...). Another reason to use Do instead of WhenCalled is, your code become more readable.
Usually I do not recommend to use IgnoreArguments method. The reason is quite simple, you test the method behaviour. When something violate the method behaviour then the test should fail. IgnoreArguments easily hide things. However, if the calling parameters aren't important do:
stub.Stub(x => x.Import(null))
                .IgnoreArguments()
                .Do(new Action<object>(o => MockedImport()));

A: In this instance you don't need a Return() call as the method is void returning. If you want to intercept the call and perform some logic on the mocked operation then use WhenCalled. In this scenario it's also worht just ignoring the arguments in the Stub and handling everything in the WhenCalled expression. e.g.
 var stub = MockRepository.GenerateStub<ITempDA>();
 stub.Stub(x => x.Import(null))
     .IgnoreArguments()
     .WhenCalled(invocation =>
     {
         var arg = invocation.Arguments[0] as ...;
         // etc
     });

Palaces for the People
Guastavino and America's Great Public Spaces
March 16, 2013–January 20, 2014
Baker Hall at Carnegie Mellon University. Photo by Michael Freeman.
The Guastavino family's soaring tile vaults grace many of the nation's most iconic structures including Grand Central Terminal, the Cathedral of St. John the Divine, the Boston Public Library, the U.S. Supreme Court, and the Nebraska State Capitol. Yet the name, the accomplishments, and the architectural legacy of this single family of first-generation Spanish immigrants are virtually unknown. Not only did the Guastavinos help build many great American public spaces between 1881 and 1962, they also revolutionized American architectural design and construction. Their patented vaulting techniques made it possible for the greatest architects of the day to create the breathtakingly beautiful spaces that represent the nation's highest ideals and aspirations.
Palaces for the People: Guastavino and America's Great Public Spaces sheds light on the story of Rafael Guastavino Sr. (1842–1908), arguably the most influential architectural craftsman working in late-19th and early-20th-century America. An established master builder in Barcelona, Guastavino immigrated to New York with his young son, Rafael Jr. (1872–1950), in 1881. His patented tiling system—based on a centuries-old Spanish building method—enabled the construction of self-supporting arches that were simultaneously lightweight but strong, fireproof, and attractive. The construction system interlocked and layered thin clay tiles and quick-setting mortar in highly decorative patterns. Compared to stone or brick vaults which required additional time and materials, Guastavino's tile vaults were exceptionally economical and highly flexible. Within a few short years, Guastavino's signature vaulting technique had transformed the American architectural landscape.
This exhibition features specially-commissioned, large-scale color photography by Michael Freeman; original Guastavino Company drawings, patents, and advertisements; 3D-printed scale models; immersive videos; a full-scale tiled vault built by masons from the International Masonry Institute; and construction demonstrations. Construction was filmed using stop-motion photography so it could be integrated into the exhibition.
