Politische Positionen
Modernisierung des Bildungswesens in der EU

Sabine Verheyen vertritt die Meinung, dass in einer zunehmend globalisierten und digitalisierten Welt Bildung der Schlüssel zum Erfolg ist. Um auch weiterhin eine hochwertige Bildung zu gewährleisten, bedarf es innovativer Lern- und Lehrmethoden. Es ist wichtig, dass die Möglichkeiten, die die Digitalisierung und die Einrichtung gemeinsamer Bildungsplattformen für die moderne Bildung bietet, insbesondere im Bereich des Fernunterrichts, auch genutzt werden. Gleichzeitig sollten altersgerechte IKT- (Informations- und Kommunikationstechnik) und Medienlehrpläne erstellt werden, die das Erlernen eines verantwortungsvollen Umgangs und kritischen Denkens mit Medien vorsehen.

Erasmus+

Es ist Verheyens Ansicht nach wichtig, dass junge Menschen Europa kennen lernen und darauf aufbauend eigene Ideen und Vorstellungen zur weiteren Gestaltung der EU entwickeln. Dies setzt jedoch voraus, dass junge Menschen die Möglichkeit haben die Vorteile und Vielfalt Europas selber zu entdecken. Das Erasmus+ Programm ist für Verheyen daher eines der wichtigsten Förderprogramme.

Tihange

Verheyen forderte zusammen mit anderen Europaabgeordneten der Euregio die Kommission auf, in Bezug auf das Atomkraftwerk Tihange, eine gemeinsame europäische Lösung zu finden. Die als bedenklich eingestufte Sicherheitslage des Kraftwerks Tihange betreffe, über Ländergrenzen hinweg, die Menschen in der Euregio. Aus diesem Grund müsse sich die Kommission für verbindliche europäische Sicherheitsnormen von Kernkraftwerken sowie für die Einrichtung einer europäischen Atomaufsichtsbehörde einsetzen, die die nationalen Aufsichtsbehörden und Betreibern kontrolliere.

Audiovisuelle Mediendienste Richtlinie

2016 übernahm Verheyen im Ausschuss für Kultur und Medien die Co-Berichterstattung für die Novelle der Audiovisuellen Mediendiensterichtlinie. Während der Verhandlungen setzte sich Verheyen vor allem für eine faire Angleichung der Regeln für lineare und non-lineare Medien ein, zum Beispiel bei der Werbung und bei Jugendschutz. Die Novelle soll 2019 in Kraft treten.

Kommunalpolitische Sprecherin der CDU/CSU Gruppe

Verheyen setzt sich "für ein starkes, bürgernahes und kommunalfreundliches Europa ein." Sie ist der Meinung, dass ein starkes EU-Parlament und ein intensiver Austausch mit den Kommunen für die Umsetzbarkeit und dadurch auch die Effektivität europäischer Gesetzgebung grundlegend sind.

Urheberrecht im digitalen Binnenmarkt

Sabine Verheyen hat für die Richtlinie gestimmt, weil sie "mehr Fairness im Internet ermöglicht und insbesondere die rücksichtslos kapitalisierenden Großkonzerne in die Verantwortung" nimmt.

ABOUTguidesPressDE
Maison de thé depuis 1867
The son of a Russian peasant family, Pavel Michailovitch Kousmichoff left his hometown at the age of 14 to look for work in St. Petersburg. He found a delivery job for a small tea merchant, where the owner let the bright young boy in on the secrets of Russian tea blends.
In 1867 Pavel opened his first teahouse. He experimented with the finest different ingredients and, combining the knowledge he learnt from his master and his enjoyment of trying new things, he created unusual tea blends of his own. Pavel became more and more successful and his clientele grew. He also created a tea blend called Bouquet de Fleurs, which soon became the tsar's tea.
And then in 1917, following the death of his father, who succeeded in building up an impressive tea empire in Russia, Pavel's son opened the Kusmi Thé house in Paris.
Still to this day, Kusmi Tea's creations are a delight for fans of original tea flavours. The historical legacy of the original recipes is reflected in all of the carefully compiled, exclusive blends. Kusmi Tea's so-called "Russian blends" are still regarded as the brand's absolute classics. Wellness teas, rooibos and herbal teas, as well as ice teas for the summer are also part of the collection. The lovingly designed tins are available as miniature sets and the tea portfolio is perfectly rounded off by accessories such as teapots, cups, warmers, infusers and lots more.

Tank!
Mike@bitaboutbritain 15th May 2016 7th December 2017 South West 6 Comments
Last Updated on 7th December 2017
They needed to break the deadlock. By the end of 1914, men had gone to ground in the wasteland of the Western Front. Perhaps, some thought, a breakthrough would come when the weather improved and cavalry could be used. But attacks through coils of barbed wire against well-defended dug-in positions, from which machine-gun and rapid rifle fire could mow human beings down in their thousands, did not produce the war of movement that the generals wanted. Something had to be done about trench warfare; but what?
If it had not been for the First World War, no one would have developed the tank when they did – if at all. War is so often a catalyst for invention, innovation and change of all kinds – ironically, not all of it destructive. But no one person can claim credit for creating the tank. The idea – though he did not call it a tank – was probably Leonardo da Vinci's, who in 1482 designed and proposed "covered wagons for the transport of guns into the enemy's lines…and behind which the infantry can follow without danger". Some even speculate whether vehicles very like tanks were used in ancient times: in the Old Testament, Judges 1:19 says the Lord "could not drive out the inhabitants of the valley, because they had chariots of iron".
A little more recently, in 1855, James Cowen took out a patent for an armoured traction engine – though it was never built. In 1903, HG Wells published a short story, 'The Land Ironclads' which featured enormous, 100 foot (30 metre) long military gun-vehicles which also carried infantry. In the same year, Captain Levavasseur of the French Army unsuccessfully proposed an "automobile cannon project". In 1904, David Roberts of Grantham patented a continuous track for use on tractors and Benjamin Holt in California demonstrated the real thing.
An Australian, Lancelot de Mole, actually submitted an innovative design for an armoured military vehicle to the British War Office in 1912. Yet the man often credited with conceiving the tank was Lieutenant Colonel Ernest Swinton of the Royal Engineers, who in 1914 proposed to the War Office that it should build an armoured tracked vehicle capable of destroying German guns; though the original suggestion seems to have come from a friend in South Africa. Some form of siege engine was needed, Swinton thought, and he realised that the agricultural caterpillar tractor might provide a technical starting point. Maurice Hankey, Secretary of the Committee of Imperial Defence, agreed. But it was the enthusiasm of Winston Churchill MP that gave the project wings. As First Lord of the Admiralty, Churchill was obviously principally concerned with war on land (!) and actually convened a committee to look into methods for attacking trenches. He wrote to Herbert Asquith, Prime Minister, "It would be quite easy in a short time to fit up a number of steam tractors with small armoured shelters" and envisaged "forty or fifty of these engines…smashing away all the obstructions and sweeping trenches with machine-gun fire."
Churchill's idea of 'landships' as he called them became a joint army/navy project under the leadership of Colonel Albert Stern, an ex-banker. The focus shifted to purpose-built vehicles designed by inventor Lieutenant Walter Wilson of the Royal Naval Air Service and engineer William Tritton at the firm Foster's of Lincoln. The vehicles were by this time known as 'tanks', a name suggested by Swinton for deception purposes. The world's first working tank, 'Little Willie', was tested in September 1915, followed by further prototypes including 'Big Willie' and, in January 1916, 'Mother'.
The first action using tanks took place on 15th September 1916, when 53 Mark Is lumbered across the Somme battlefield in support of British, Canadian and New Zealand troops. There were two types: the 'male' armed with two naval 6-pounder guns; and the 'female' equipped with four Vickers machine-guns.
Don't take my word for any of this. You can find out all about it by visiting The Tank Museum at Bovington, in Dorset. Tanks were originally tested in Suffolk, but the army deemed the area around Bovington and Lulworth more suitable for training – and they are still there.
The Tank Museum is the museum of the Royal Armoured Corps and it is located adjacent to the military base, Bovington Camp. It was, apparently, Rudyard Kipling's suggestion that a tank museum should be set up and it opened to the public in 1947. The museum now has more than 300 vehicles with the largest collection of tanks in the world – excluding those being used by various armies, of course. The largest museum collection of armoured fighting vehicles is the Musee des Blindes in Saumur.
The fascinating story of the tank unfolds through six, massive, exhibition halls at Bovington. It takes you through the inter-war years, when forward thinking military minds like Heinz Guderian (author of 'Achtung-Panzer!' In 1937) advocated a new type of warfare leading to Blitzkrieg. It tells tales of battles, from Cambrai and Arras to Alamein, Normandy and, the greatest tank engagement ever, Kursk – when something like 6,000 (estimates range up to 23,000) German and Soviet tanks clashed. The story evolves through the Cold War to the present day. The tank can give an army mobility and the means to deliver a decisive strike whilst offering protection to its fighters. But visibility can be poor and tanks are also large and difficult to hide. These days, thermal imaging is used to locate enemy tanks whilst silencers, exhaust shields and stealth technology is used to make them harder to find.
Bovington's collection includes iconic vehicles whose names will be familiar to schoolboys of all ages, including me. So here you will find the outstanding German Panzer, Tiger and Panther tanks, the amazing Soviet T34 (I remember seeing a graveyard of T34s in Cyprus), British Centurion and Challenger…and, of course, the American M4 Sherman – grimly nicknamed 'Ronson' after the cigarette lighter ("lights every time"). There is even a DD (duplex-drive) version of the Sherman – an amphibious variety used during D-Day (disastrously at Omaha Beach) and elsewhere.
The 2014 movie, Fury features an M4 Sherman – as well as Brad Pitt. The museum was approached to offer its expertise, as well as the loan of its working WW2 tanks. 'Fury' was mostly filmed in Britain and the museum decided to recreate part of the film set to help tell the story of its involvement with Hollywood.
The Tank Museum is an absorbing experience – even if only for a limited period if you don't find tanks particularly warm and cuddly. Personally, I find them terrifying: huge, seemingly unstoppable, machines; the mass of unforgiving, unyielding, mobile metal is shocking enough – without considering the firepower. Having read, and listened to, accounts of tank warfare, I can imagine few things more frightening than going to war in one; possibly, the fear and helplessness as one of these monsters inexorably approaches you might be worse. The cramped, sweltering, conditions of the early tanks in particular gave me a feeling of awe for the men that fought in them, often with bonds closer than many families. I daresay modern tanks are a little more comfortable.
As part of the story, the museum includes an interesting mock-up of a tank factory as well as Battlegroup Afghanistan, a moving exhibition depicting part of the British Army's role in Helmand Province.
There's plenty to do in this part of southern England, but I'd say that the Tank Museum should be on your list of places to go. It's also a very good rainy day option. Being weaned tales of derring-do, it is definitely my kind of place. I loved the factory smell of steel and engine oil and was impressed by the range of visitor types; they were by no means all middle-aged fat nurds in combat fancy dress trying to look tough. I was disappointed to have missed one of the regular live displays the museum puts on, but have noted that they stage an annual 'Tank Fest', which looks captivating. The museum also has a passable canteen and a very good shop which sells everything from the usual tat to an excellent range of books.
At the end of it all, I came upon a very out-tanked Mrs B. Curiously, that didn't stop her wanting to buy 'Fury' on DVD; she's never shown any previous interest in American tank tactics of WW2 and I can't imagine what the sudden attraction was.
Another option not far away is the Fleet Air Arrm Museum at Yeovilton. Discover more museums and other places to visit in A Bit About Britain's Attraction Directory.

Should I ever get to England, I shall make The Tank Museum one of my priority stops. As a former M577 driver and T.C., tracked vehicles are close to my heart.

Well, thanks for dropping in. I hope you DO make it to the UK and get to visit the museum; it sounds as though you could lose yourself there for at least a day!

I LOVE tanks! I have several with me on my boat. There's the main cold water tank, the hot water tank, the engine coolant tank… tanks for the memories, a bottle of Tankueray Gin…

That's a lot of tanks; tanks a lot…

Fascinating but also horrifying machines. Luckily for me I can only imagine the horrors of war (so far, the world is teetering on the brink again…) and the terror that all of those ordinary men who just wanted to get on with their lives must have felt at being forced into battle by [extremely rude words describing politicians and the Establishment]. Humans are indeed a peculiar species.
Can't disagree with any of that!

Here's All the Culture News You Missed This Week

Justin Bieber and The Weeknd criticized the Grammys, Taylor Swift released her Folklore film, and more.
By Pahull Bains
From Taylor Swift's Folklore film to The Weeknd and Justin Bieber's criticisms of the Grammys, here's what made headlines this week.
The 2021 Grammy nominations were announced
Earlier this week, nominations for the 2021 Grammys were announced, with Taylor Swift, Beyoncé and Drake getting several nods. However, the announcement was swiftly followed by controversy. Canadian musician The Weeknd, whose latest album After Hours didn't receive a single nomination despite critical and commercial success, tweeted: "The Grammys remain corrupt. You owe me, my fans and the industry transparency…" The musician had two singles in the top 10 on the Billboard charts and six songs on the Billboard Global 200 list this year. Justin Bieber also voiced his dissatisfaction with the fact that his album Changes was classified as a pop album instead of R&B. "I am very meticulous and intentional about my music. With that being said I set out to make an R&B album. Changes was and is an R&B album. It is not being acknowledged as an R&B album which is very strange to me," he wrote on Instagram.
Taylor Swift's Folklore film dropped on Disney+
A film featuring Taylor Swift performing all the songs from her new album Folklore dropped on Disney+ this past week. "folklore: the long pond studio sessions" was filmed in upstate New York in September 2020 and sees Swift singing her latest songs, accompanied by co-producers Aaron Dessner and Jack Antonoff along with a guest appearance by Justin Vernon from Bon Iver. Directed by Swift herself, the film also reveals the stories and secrets behind all 17 songs from her Grammy-nominated album.
TIFF's Secret Movie Club launched its digital version
TIFF's Secret Movie Club, a film club that allows viewers early access to the year's buzziest films, will be shifting to a digital format for the 2020-21 season. TIFF's Robyn Citizen and NOW Magazine's Norm Wilner will serve as this year's hosts and each screening will be followed by a live discussion with someone from the film team or a critic or subject expert. All of the films in the lineup will be new, unreleased films not yet seen by the public and as the name suggests, the titles will be kept secret ahead of time. The digital movie club goes live this weekend, with single tickets for $16 and subscriptions for $105.
The Oxford English Dictionary announced it couldn't pick just one Word of the Year this year
"It's both unprecedented and a little ironic – in a year that left us speechless, 2020 has been filled with new words unlike any other," said Oxford Dictionaries president Casper Grathwohl. So instead of selecting a single word that dominated discourse over the course of the year, they selected a whole list of words and terms including coronavirus, pandemic, lockdown, BIPOC and BLM.

Wanted for Arrest, Bavet City Penal Police Chief Still on the Job
by Khuon Narim
The Svay Rieng Provincial Court has issued an arrest warrant for Bavet City penal police chief Sar Chantha in relation to the 2012 shooting of three garment workers, although authorities have yet to apprehend the officer, who has been continuing to show up for work, according to his boss.
Mr. Chantha has been convicted of illegal weapons possession in connection to the shooting during a garment worker protest that left the three women injured, though the officer has maintained that he was not present at the time of the incident.
Former Bavet City governor Chhouk Bundith was convicted in absentia of firing the shots that injured the workers and handed an 18-month jail sentence, but remains at large.
On Monday, provincial court prosecutor Hing Bunchea said Mr. Chantha was now officially wanted for arrest.
"The court has issued an arrest warrant for Sar Chantha, maybe in May, on the 10th," he said. "There is no arrest yet."
Asked about Mr. Bundith, the prosecutor said he still did not know the ex-governor's whereabouts.
As for Mr. Chantha, his boss, Bavet City police chief Keo Kong, said he knew of the arrest warrant, but said the wanted officer had been coming into work every day, including Monday.
"He has not been arrested yet; he comes to work normally," Mr. Kong said, declining to comment further.
Mr. Chantha could not be reached Monday, but said by telephone on Sunday that he remained a free man.
Am Sam Ath, technical supervisor for rights group Licadho, said be believed Mr. Chantha had nothing to do with the shooting and that he was being used as a smokescreen for Mr. Bundith, the true culprit.
"This is a game; they are just transferring the blame onto Sar Chantha," he said. "Sar Chantha is one of the victims, because witnesses have said that he was absent when Chhouk Bundith shot at the workers."
In the initial trial, the provincial court dropped its case of unintentional shooting against the ex-governor and charged Mr. Chantha with the shooting instead.
Amid public outcry, the Justice Ministry ordered the Appeal Court to reinvestigate the case. In a subsequent retrial at the provincial court, Mr. Bundith was convicted of unintentional shooting and Mr. Chantha of illegal weapons possession.
The Supreme Court upheld the convictions in December.
Mr. Bundith, who was named by numerous witnesses as the sole shooter but still remains free following the incident, has become a symbol of impunity for the well-connected under a court system widely seen as being corrupt and politicized.

Shaheen believes businesses have a key role in moulding and training the youth with transferable skills.
Published: 10 September 2018 - 7:32 a.m.
InfoFort, an information management solution provider, recently announced a partnership agreement with the Canadian University Dubai (CUD) to train and provide job opportunities to students pursuing careers in information management and related fields.
Through this partnership, selected students will receive hands-on training that focuses on developing their technical and business skills, mentorship from InfoFort's senior executives, as well as an opportunity to enter the company's internship programme.
The overall aim is to equip them with the necessary skill sets and complement academia and spark their interest in technology, Shaheen said.
As part of this agreement, InfoFort and CUD will also collaborate on applied research projects to help students advance their skills and knowledge in their chosen area of specialisation.
The UAE ICT market witnessed remarkable growth in the past two decades and continues to grow and support the nation's advancements particularly across aviation, healthcare, retail, finance and manufacturing sectors, Shaheen observes.
"As part of its growth vision, the UAE has laid special emphasis on empowering its national human capacity, particularly in the field of STEM education and today as one of the most advanced digital economies in the world, it is strongly positioned to support, nurture and build a strong workforce capable of contributing to global advancements in the near future," Shaheen said.
The InfoCare platform covers three main areas, Environment (InfoGreen); humanity (InfoSave); and youth development (InfoGrow).
"Youth development and skills building are core to our sustainability platform. Over the years we've worked closely with a number of educational institutes and youth organisations to empower students to receive hands-on training to develop technical and business skills, in addition to receiving mentorship from InfoFort employees and an opportunity to intern at the company," added Shaheen.
"We are proud of what we've achieved through InfoGrow and how it has empowered the youth living in marginalised communities to develop their IT skills to join the workforce and ultimately become self-sufficient," he Said.
As a UAE-based global information management solutions provider, pursuing a higher purpose and being impactful is rooted in InfoFort's culture and DNA, said Shaheen.
Arab Region by the QS World University Rankings.
InfoFort began its operations in the UAE in 1997 and today is one of the leading information management solution provider with more than 2,000 customers in 25 cities in the Middle East, Africa and Asia. "Given our experience and 20 plus years in the UAE, we have the capacity to scale up and offer these transferable skills and internship opportunities as needed," Shaheen asserted.
"This initiative serves as a stepping stone for young graduates who are eager to pursue a career in this field," he added.
InfoFort has a long-term roadmap in its youth-empowerment initiative. CEO Shaheen said the company intends to reach out to as many educational institutes and youth organisations across all the markets it operates in. To further promote this skill sharing initiative InfoFort launched SkillPowerment initiatives in 2015 to allow other like-minded companies to connect with the youth.
The platform aims to address the alarming youth unemployment and poverty rates in the Middle East and Africa region, said Shaheen. "SkillPowerment challenges typical "No Budget" excuses. It starts with the premise that doing good does not always require financial commitments and that we can create significant impact through sharing certain skills," he added.
"We see this as a duty and a part of our active citizenship. We believe as organisations and individuals it is our moral obligation to actively participate in improving and building a better future for our communities, societies and economies," Shaheen concluded.


All catering menus are prepared in-house by The Cypress Columns' executive chef. Event menu packages are designed for a buffet presentation, but seated banquet presentations are available for certain events upon request (ask event consultant for further detail.) Buffets remain open to guests for the entire time of the event, but please note that certain items may not be replenished.
A guarantee of the total headcount for an event is required 14 days prior to the event date. Children under the age of 6 are not to be included in this count. This guarantee allows Executive Chef Tedesco to prepare the appropriate amount of food; which will average at least 10% over the final guaranteed headcount.
A booking deposit of 1/3rd of the total package price is required to hold an event date. The remaining balance will be due in monthly installments as indicated in the contract. Alternative payment arrangements are available at the discretion of management and will be agreed upon at the time of signing. Failure to comply with agreed payment arrangements may result in the total loss of all moneys paid to The Cypress Columns. Accepted forms of payment include: cash, check, money order, or credit card (certain fees may apply.) Clients will be held responsible for any fees associated with returned checks. All fees associated with a guest overage (refer to "Guarantee" section) will be due within 15 days after the event date. A security deposit may be required for certain events. If so, the full amount of the security deposit will be returned within 5 business days, after the event date, upon the facility passing a full inspection by management.
In the event that the client must cancel the scheduled event the following policy applies: Client acknowledges that upon reservation of the event date and receipt of the initial payment, referred to above, The Cypress Columns will no longer market its facilities and services for the date and time reserved and will commence preparing for the client's event. As a result, the client agrees that should it be necessary to cancel the event for any reason all moneys paid to The Cypress Columns shall be forfeited and shall, in their entirety, belong to The Cypress Columns. All contracts are non-transferable.
Outside alcoholic beverages and the possession and/or consumption of alcohol by a minor are strictly prohibited. All glassware and alcoholic beverages must remain on the premises at all times. The Cypress Columns' staff fully abides by all Louisiana State Liquor Law policies and procedures. A final call on alcohol service will be announced 15 minutes prior to the end of the event. If the bar package selected is based on a consumption limit, a final call time on alcohol service will be planned in advance.
It is mandatory for all events held at The Cypress Columns to obtain event insurance coverage. The standard coverage of $300,000 may be added to most homeowner policies. In the event that the parties involved cannot secure coverage in this manner, The Cypress Columns will be of assistance. It is the responsibility of the client to provide a copy of the insurance policy at the time of the final payment installment.
In the event that the client deems it necessary to change the date of the event the following policy applies: Prior to 6 months from the event date, the date is transferable with no penalty if the new date has not been reserved for another event. If it is necessary to move a date within 6 months of the original event date, a $1,000 re-booking fee will be assessed to the client.
It is understood that The Cypress Columns should in no way be held liable for any breach of contract by the clients or outside vendor agreements, reached between said clients and vendors, other than the Cypress Columns. The client should notify the facility of any discrepancies or cancellations with vendors within 2 weeks of said cancellations. The Cypress Columns' consultant agrees to attempt to locate a satisfactory substitute, as directed by the client or at the consultant's best discretion. Any changes made to this agreement should be in writing and signed by all parties involved. In the event that this agreement is terminated by the client (in writing) fees will be assessed as per above stated policy.

PH2033 is a semester module in English language at Master's level which is offered in winter semester.
Responsible coordinator of the module PH2033 is Matthias Althammer.
This module provides an introduction to the various manifestations of magnetism. After a contextual and historical motivation, it begins with an introduction to the fundamental relations describing quantitatively the response of matter in an externally applied magnetic field. It describes the types of magnetism present in isolated atoms or ions and discusses the influence of the crystallographic environment. Afterwards, magnetism originating from the free electrons in a solid are discussed. Additionally, various coupling mechanisms of magnetic moments, collective effects, magnetic ordering and phase transitions are studied.
In the thematically structured lecture the learning content is presented. With cross references between different topics the universal concepts in magnetism are shown. In scientific discussions the students are involved to stimulate their analytic-physics intellectual power.
In the exercise class the learning content is deepened and exercised using problem examples and simulations based on physical models. Thus the students are able to explain and apply the learned physics knowledge independently.
There will be an oral exam of about 30 minutes duration. Therein the achievement of the competencies given in section learning outcome is tested exemplarily at least to the given cognition level using comprehension questions, discussions based on sketches and formulas.
How can one distinguish ferromagnetic, ferrimagnetic, and antiferromagnetic materials based on their magnetic susceptibility?
What are different classes of magnetic materials and which experiments need to be carried out to classify them?
How are homogenous magnetic fields generated?

But in asking about actual day to day behaviors, the survey found a huge disconnect between what people feel is right, and what they actually do about it. The survey discovered that 61% of Americans actually make decisions based on comfort or convenience over those that they believe would positively impact the environment.
Why such a huge disconnect? As our society becomes more aware of environmental issues, people can get completely overwhelmed with the enormity of the problems. It can be hard to see how any one of us can make a difference. Many times, people just don't realize how much of an impact each of us has on the environment by the way we live and the choices we make in our homes, our cars, and in our day to day activities. And even more importantly, many people don't realize that there are choices available to them that not only benefit the environment, but that also support better comfort, health, and quality of life for ourselves as well! Even small changes can add up to a big difference over time.
Let's take energy for example. Every home requires energy to operate, usually in the form of electricity and natural gas. We use energy for cooking and for keeping indoor temperatures comfortable when the outdoor temperatures are too hot or too cold. Some homes waste much more energy than others, but there are very easy and cost effective fixes that not only save money but make our homes much more comfortable.
Caulk and apply weather stripping to seal up air gaps around windows and doors, or any other places where your conditioned air to the outside.
Have your cooling system tuned up, change filters, and make sure it is in good working order.
Saving water is important too.
Just about every community in the country is facing the need to conserve and manage their water supplies, but that is especially true here in the desert Southwest. There are very practical steps we can all take to reduce our consumption of water without making changes in our lifestyle.
First, check for water leaks, both inside and outside. Many gallons of water are wasted each year through leaks in water faucets, toilets, hose bibs and irrigation systems. Sometimes excessive water pressure coming into our homes can cause extra pressure on pipes and lead to leaks. Fix the leaks – why pay for water that just gets wasted?
When water faucets, shower heads or toilets need to be replaced, buy water saving fixtures. They can be basic or fancy, but you won't even notice you are saving water.
The great thing about taking small steps to a more sustainable home is that people become aware of just how much they can make a difference. Once people get started, they realize there are so many opportunities to do more for the environment while saving money, adding comfort, and maybe a little satisfaction about doing what we feel is right for the environment and for future generations. True sustainability is a balance between meeting people's needs, maintaining prosperity and preserving the environment not only for today but well into the future. No sacrifices needed – just making smart choices!

Q: How the checkerboard size affect an accurate Camera Calibration?
*

*Right now, I am calibrating a monocular camera so afterwards I can calculate distance of planar objects in the image (Z=0).

However, I'd like to know how much it is important to know the structure size. The board's squares sizes change a lot in the image based on how far you are so I am not sure if it is a robust parameter as you would always have a relative scale?
Moreover, for my camera which will be mounted on a ceiling (around 10 meters high), how could I estimate suitable sizes of a checkerboard and squares for accurate calibration?

A: Basic rule of thumb is that the checkerboard should be in focus, approximately fill the field of view in some of the images, and be significantly slanted in some other images. It helps if you have a finite volume of space you work with, and you span most of it with measurements. See this other answer for more.

Two weeks ago, I launched the initial beta of my Neptune framework. As I am prone to do, I missed something obvious in the released files (failing to include a needed file), causing the example in the documentation not to work. Tom Hubbard was nice enough to point this out to me.
In addition to that, my CF-Talk announcement, generated quite a discussion on the security of file uploads in Neptune. Consequently, I have made some adjustments in response to that discussion.
I felt these to changes were significant enough that I wanted to get them out right away, but not significant enough to call this release "Beta 2", so I punted and called it "1.0 Beta 1.5" - kind of a lame version number, but oh well.

More Snow On The Way
Published: Feb 01, 2015 12:00 AM
A storm system in the central part of the country will push east, setting the stage for a widespread precipitation event across the central and eastern United States through Monday. A wide swath of accumulating snow is forecast from Nebraska to New England.
That's the word this morning from the National Weather Service (NWS), who has issued a Winter Storm Warning for northern Fairfield County that will be in effect from 7 pm tonight until 6 pm Monday, February 2. The warning from the New York City office of NWS also includes northern New Haven County, as well as Orange and Putnam counties in New York.
Heavy snow, sleet and freezing rain are expected to affect interior portions of southwestern Connecticut and the lower Hudson Valley, according to the latest NWS warning. Newtown could see between 10 and 14 inches of snow, adding to what remains in place from Winter Storm Juno, which arrived January 26-27. Less than a tenth of an inch of ice may also come with the new precipitation.
The weather event is not expected to arrive until tonight, about three hours after the warning goes into effect. NWS is stating that most of today will be cloudy, with temperatures reaching a high of 28 degrees. Winds will remain, but not as strong as yesterday's, moving 5-7 mph and creating wind chills between 10 and 20 degrees.
The snow is expected to arrive "mainly after 10 pm," the weather service currently states. Temperatures will drop to a low of 17, and a light east wind will increase to 6-11 mph after midnight. Wind chill values will be between 5 and 10 degrees.
Chance of overnight precipitation is 100%, according to NWS, with new snow accumulation of 3 to 5 inches "possible."
Monday will dawn with continuing snow "before noon, then snow, freezing rain and sleet," according to the weather service. Temperatures will be "steady" around 20 degrees, but the wind chill will make it feel closer to 5-10 degrees. An east wind of 11-14 mph will "become north in the afternoon."
Chance of precipitation for Monday remains 100%, with new snow and sleet accumulation of 4-8 inches, and new ice accumulation of 0.1 to 0.2 of an inch "possible," NWS is posting at 8:58 am Sunday, February 1.
Wunderground.com, a weather dedicated website, is echoing NWS on some of its predictions. While Wunderground is showing 5-8 inches of snow for the Sunday overnight, that website is posting expectations of just 1-3 additional inches of "wintry precipitation" for Monday.
Wunderground's staff is looking at a mix of wintry precipitation for Monday morning, "then periods of snow expected in the afternoon." It is still a 100% chance of precipitation, according to that site's professional, but a lesser amount arriving.
Monday night, according to Wunderground, will see "some lingering evening flurries or snow showers. Evening clouds will give way to clearing" with a low of -1 degree F.
No announcements have been made concerning school delays or closings as of 9 am Sunday, but The Bee will announce any updates as they are made.
Businesses and groups that may have events cancelled or postponed due to Monday's weather are encouraged to contact Associate Editor Shannon Hicks with this information, at shannon@thebee.com. Any announcements that are received will be posted on The Bee's website, and shared through social media.

Hello Neighbor Animated Series Pilot To Air Friday
It's always interesting to see what games make the jump from the confines of your computer and into the world of merchandising and franchising. Minecraft, Bendy and the Ink Machine, Five Nights at Freddy's, Assassin's Creed… okay, let's not talk about that last one. It's very common for spooky games—especially the cartoony ones—to draw a large enough young audience to make printing plush toys akin to printing money. With that in mind, I can't say I'm entirely surprised that Hello Neighbor is getting a pilot for an animated series. The game is probably more popular as a YouTube topic/spectator sport than an actual game.
What does surprise me is that the Hello Neighbor cartoon looks like an actual cartoon for children. As colorful and zany as Hello Neighbor is, it is an actual horror game. I remember a time in early access where the cartoony visuals were meant to juxtapose the terror, not be the selling point. But before you go thumbing your nose at it, kids need their gateway horror. I had Goosebumps. Monster High has probably spawned more new hardcore horror fans than the 2018 Halloween.
At any rate, this might not even be how the final show would look. This is just a test pilot to gauge interest in a larger series. This first episode, titled "Breaking & Entering," is just 6-minutes long. The plot is simple enough: "A group of kids led by Nicky are breaking into their creepy Neighbor's house to find their missing friends." If enough people tune in, the good people at tinyBuild are hoping to get a distribution deal. The pilot is written by Carly Anne West, who wrote the four Hello Neighbor books. And if you're wondering why it looks like a Cartoon Network cartoon, that's because the animation studio behind it is Animasia Studios, who are best known for their work on Cartoon Network cartoons.
So if you're a big fan of the Hello Neighbor lore or are looking for a good gateway horror piece for your kids, then check the show out when it premiers this Friday. It airs at 10 am PST (12 hours from now) on the tinyBuild YouTube channel. You can find where it will broadcast and set a reminder by clicking here. Subscribers to the YouTube Community will also get 14-minutes of behind-the-scenes extras.

Lou Mongello / Tuesday, March 13th, 2012
Tags: Downtown Disney / Pleasure Island / Raglan Road Irish Pub and Restaurant
LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. – Authentic Irish food, music and dance performances set the scene for a three-day St. Patrick's Day celebration and the "wearin' of the green" March 15-17 in and around the Raglan Road Irish Pub & Restaurant at Downtown Disney Pleasure Island.

When St. Patrick's Day arrives March 17, non-stop entertainment kicks off at noon with Creel, The Raglan Road Dancers, more outdoor entertainment and a special appearance by U2 tribute band Elevation.
The weekend of festivities spans Pleasure Island with live Pleasure Island stage performances by The Wyndbreakers — Florida's own "neo-traditional, pub-rockin', guitar pickin' Celtic" musicians; Celtic Wave, with its own traditional Irish flair; and Celtic Nova, putting its own twist on popular lrish tunes. Family-fun activities will include face painting and stilt walkers, and St. Patrick's Day souvenirs will be in abundance.
More St. Patrick's Day fun is in store:
Authentic Irish cuisine is featured March 15 at 1 p.m. as Raglan Road celebrity Irish chef Kevin Dundon creates a four-course kickoff luncheon and culinary demonstration in the restaurant's Grand Dining Room. (Call 407-938-0300) or visit www.raglanroad.com for reservations).

At 7 p.m., house band Creel rocks the audience on the restaurant's main stage – expect surprise guest appearances. Guests can order favorites like fish 'n chips and Shepherd's pie from the restaurant's lunch or dinner menus.
March 17, St. Patrick's Day, doors open at 11 a.m. House band Creel performs on the main stage at noon and at various times throughout the day. Entertainment on the patio kicks off at 1 p.m. with Irish dancing from The Raglan Road Dancers and performers from the Watters School of Irish Dancing, established in Central Florida more than a decade ago to train young dancers for championship performances. U2 tribute band Elevation is expected to bring down the house with renditions of U2-s greatest hits. Guests can order from Raglan Road's dinner menu throughout the day, which includes the authentic Irish dish of St. Patrick's Day — loin of bacon and cabbage. A $10 cover charge applies on March 17 for guests 18 and older.
Entertainment subject to change.

CollegiateRacingMacalester Cuts Nordic Ski Program
FasterSkierFebruary 6, 2004
On Tuesday afternoon the members of the Macalester College Nordic Ski Team were called in to attend an unplanned meeting with our coaches, the athletic director and assistant athletic director. I knew upon entering the room that all was not right with the world and that whatever the athletic director said to us would greatly affect the future of nordic skiing- and athletics in general- at Macalester. Without any prior notice we were informed that a committee had decided to dismantle the cross country ski team as a varsity sport.
Our biggest qualm with this news is the manner in which it was presented to us. I remember the situation with the football team two years ago. Although circumstances were different as to the reason for cutting the program, I would just like to point out that the team was informed before a final decision was made. Community meetings were held. Opinions were heard. People rallied to support their team. Our team was given no such opportunity. The decision has been made. Our team will not belong to the MIAC and NCAA next year.
I am reminded of a very similar thing happening at Carleton, just two years ago. Once a very strong skiing program, they now have a club team consisting of three members and no coach. I fear a similar fate for our team. Now it seems that the loss of the Carleton program was just the beginning of a decline of the MIAC (the Minnesota Intercollegiate Athletics Conference). St. Mary's cut their program last year as well. I fear it is only a matter of time until all the skiing programs of the MIAC fold.
The disbanding of the ski team calls into question Macalester's commitment to quality athletics. I would like to point out the fact that our team is the first to be dismantled since the loss of the men's hockey team in the 1970s. The school and its athletic department have endured occasional economic hardship between then and now without cutting other teams. The solution to eliminate a varsity team was chosen over decreasing the entire department's budget by 5%.
The timing of this announcement is also rather unfortunate. New skiers have been recruited and several of them have already withdrawn their applications as a result of our loss of varsity status. Also, the team is primarily composed of sophomores and freshman who are thinking very seriously about transferring. However, they will have a difficult time of it because many application deadlines have already passed. If I was not graduating, I know that I would very seriously consider leaving Macalester.
The existence of a Nordic Ski Team at Macalester made the school unique among the elite, small liberal arts colleges in the Twin Cities and surrounding area. In fact, Macalester is the only Division III college in an urban setting which supports nordic skiing as a varsity sport in the nation, setting it apart from all other schools. Having grown up in St. Paul, I know just how strong the local skiing community is. I hate the idea of such a thriving nordic skiing community losing the one college in the Twin Cities that offers skiing at the varsity level.
The team is committed to finishing out the season as strongly as we possibly can. While I am racing next weekend I will not be able to ski with the usual sense of calm, meditative focus I usually achieve during my speedy passage through the woods- rather I will be driven on by anger created by this injustice and the desire to obtain glory in the dying moments of our team. I have no doubt that this occurrence has lit a fire in all of us and we will ski with the passion of knowing that we are participating in one of few precious final races.
If you have any opinion on this matter, the ski team would be very grateful if you would make your voice heard. We recommend that you send a letter or make a phone call in support of our program to Macalester's president, Brian Rosenberg, at rosenbergb@macalester.edu, 651-696-6207.

Editor's Note:
The members of the Macalester ski team would love your support, but they ask that any comments you send be positive. They ask that skiers emphasize the broader impact that cutting the Macalester program has on the ski community in any further correspondence. Personal attacks on those who made the decision will only make things worse. They do not want to anger the administration any more than they already are. Anger gets nothing accomplished.

Silent Scr3am
Written by: PP on 16/12/2009 19:36:35
It sucks that in gothic metal you have to go through fifteen dead-on-mediocre clone acts that inspire no feeling or emotion in you whatsoever to find one decent act that immediately catches your attention. You start having a cynical opinion to all bands in the genre before you've even heard a single track, and as a reviewer, you subsequently postpone all gothic metal reviews for as long as possible by default. The tiny success rate is also the one reason why the gothic metal genre has been reduced to obscurity as this decade is drawing to a close, a free fall drop in popularity when compared to the genre's popularity ten years ago, around when Nightwish put out their classic record "Wishmaster". In case you didn't guess it yet, Greek gothic metallers Elysion are one of the exceptions to the rule with their entirely decent debut album "Silent Sc3am".
So what separates Elysion from the other two million European gothic metal bands? For starters, their vocalist Christianna. She is hands down one of the best vocalists I've heard in the genre to date. Instead of opting for the high-pitch, operatic delicate and/or weak delivery, she utilizes a medium-range singing voice but packs it with surprisingly much power, strength and emotional connection. The vast number of places where her extended cries fly dominantly and flawlessly through the soundscape - stealing the spotlight completely in the process - is admirable. With the kind of pipes that she owns, she'd have no trouble launching a solo pop career and people would fall head over heels for her. Check out especially "Weakness In Your Eyes" and "Bleeding" for lessons on how to sing, I'm almost tempted to compare her vocal talent to the likes of Shakira / Mariah Carey, though I have no idea whether their vox are a result of production rather than talent. Variety is no problem for Christianna either: you can hear her shift seamlessly through different layers of sound, from the deeper quiet sections to the overwhelming power of the pop passages and everything in between.
Consequently, the instrumentals are left to background, and one could easily be forgiven for not noticing the industrial tinge to the synths/keyboards, or the difference in soundscape to the typically funeral-speed, boring instrumentation this genre's known for. You could argue that the instruments have a slight pop-metal sense to them because they aren't flashy at all, despite squeezing out droplets of symphonic metal every now and then. But this is also why "Silent Scr3am" just works: the instruments are used as a platform to elevate Christianna's voice to the recognition it deserves. The record isn't the truly magnificent and groundbreaking album out of the gothic metal genre that's been a looooooooooong time coming, but it's absolutely a step in the right direction.

Punjabi Sarson Ka Saag Recipe
I find traditional restaurants that serve typical Punjabi food. We ordered Sarson da Saag, Saag Paneer, a spinach stew with cream and cheese, and chicken biryani, a chicken stew with spices and basmati rice.
Kalyan Panja August 22, 2020
This was one of the deepest trips I've made, not because of the distance traveled but because of its effect on me. It is not that my life has been divided before Amritsar and after Amritsar, but it is the place where I have felt better. The trip was good. We arrived directly at the hostel. The city is not pretty compared to the city I visited before (Udaipur). But it is not the beauty of the urban area but the religious centers that make Amritsar famous.
Amritsar would be nothing more than a dusty and forgotten enclave near the border of Pakistan was it not for the impressive Golden Temple. It makes Amritsar a highlight on the map and very important place of pilgrimage. There is an atmosphere of mystery. It is gray. Now that I think about it, it was a good idea to take the photos in black and white, so they are prettier.
We came from a long trip of more than 10 hours by bus, so we needed dinner. My hostess suggested that we go and try Punjabi food, obviously. Once I had tasted Punjabi food in Delhi and it was rich, so I felt ready to try something new. In every neighborhood, I find traditional restaurants that serve typical Punjabi food. It is staffed by its owners and has an excellent, comfortable and familiar atmosphere. The food is prepared in a tandoor (cylindrical furnace with coal) or in a clay oven. And everything is cooked at the moment.
We ordered Sarson da Saag, Saag Paneer, a spinach stew with cream and cheese, and chicken biryani, a chicken stew with spices and basmati rice. They also gave us Roti, a flatbread that also has a lot of additional spices. I ate some rice, which was the only thing that did not sting and also a bit of Roti.
Next morning we visited the Golden Temple. Being in the golden temple at sunrise means having the opportunity to enjoy the most delicious chai in the world with a slice of bread. As soon as we get inside we hear the Shabad kirtan and see the contrast between the immaculate white marble floor with the gold of the main building.
We walked through a corridor with white walls at the end of which was a huge staircase, also white. Behind it opened the true heart of the temple of overwhelming beauty. Personally, it left me with my mouth open. Literally, I hallucinated. People bathe in their sacred lake to purify themselves, sit for hours to pray or simply relax with their friends.
The sunlight reflected on the marble of a clean white color that returned it and threw it on the golden temple that in the center sparkled and shone as if it were a huge jewel. The luminosity was such that it made me squint at first. The whole is, in a word, impressive.
Frankly, Amritsar itself is an unattractive city, quite devoid of charms and in which it is difficult to visualize, at first glance, objective reasons that justify the trip. It is not a pleasant city to walk, it is chaotic, noisy and many of its buildings are practically in ruins. But neither should we let ourselves be carried away by first impressions.
Amritsar has, in addition to the Golden Temple, remarkable points of tourist attention. I must say that the Mata Temple was one of the most strange and surreal temple experiences. The sanctuary is dedicated to Lal Devi, the holy woman with glasses, who became pregnant after her visit. Currently, hundreds of women visit the temple devoted to the cause throughout the year, some of them with glasses, hoping to get pregnant.
All the locals we spoke with insisted and fervently recommended that we visit Jallianwala Bagh. We still see the marks of the bullets on the walls and strange figures made of wire that simulate perverse British soldiers pointing to the horizon. The whole set is exaggerated and a bit tacky, but the truth is that for the inhabitants of Amritsar the garden is a source of pride and is there to remember the sad massacre.
I take this opportunity to also comment that smoking in the vicinity is also prohibited. As a result, we had to easily walk a mile and a half and hide in a corner. Finally, we go for food hunting. We took a taxi and tasted a tandoori chicken in a restaurant recommended by one of our guides, but frankly, the dinner was not something worth remembering. I much more enjoyed the completely vegetarian and a wide range of local specialties.
In any case, if there is a reason worth making a trip to Amritsar (apart from the Golden Temple, of course), above all the places I mentioned above is the welcoming and open character of Sikhs and Punjabis. During our time in Amritsar, we have met especially attentive and kind people, concerned about protecting the traveler and with an innocent curiosity towards the visitor that is more difficult to see in other parts of India and not to mention the globe.
I had Sikhs offering their card to us that in the event that we had any problems during our stay in Punjab we would call them, or another man who came running to warn us so that we would be careful with our backpacks in a taxi because they could steal our luggage without paying attention. Little by little, a few prejudices were dismantled and although it is hard to let the guard down in India at times, I have to say that in broad strokes and generalizing, the Punjabis are charming.
We took hundreds of photos, we let ourselves be enveloped by the mystic atmosphere of the temples. We enjoyed casual conversations with strangers and locals. We ran into unexpected encounters. We were thrilled with the kindness of its people and we even ended up dancing in the streets at the rhythm of a Punjabi wedding. I think you can not ask for more.
The cuisine of Punjab, is not only highly diversified, in dairy products but also uses many spices. The most popular dish here is Sarson da Saag, a curry made with mustard leaves, spinach and numerous spices. The ideal places to have a Punjabi meal remains the dhaba, the restaurants or the taverns of truckers who are on the road that connects Delhi with the region and expose the metal on the outside of their pots, which unequivocally call for a hearty lunch. In these simple kiosks the variety and quality of food is truly remarkable.
There are many different types of sauces to mustard, which usually change from country to country. In France, the mustard is called moutarde literally mustard, is particularly widespread and already in 1500 in Orléans was born the first guild of producers.
Around 1550 the corporation was founded in Dijon, where it is still produced one of the most spicy mustards and famous, known as Dijon mustard Moutarde de Dijon, produced in different varieties with basic ingredients such as brown mustard, vinegar, salt and citric acid. The vinegar is often replaced with the sour grapes, grape juice acidity which has not reached the maturation.
In the milling process, the integument of the seed is removed, giving this less spicy mustard flavor.
Other renowned French mustards are those of Meaux, Bordeaux, and Alsace. The latter is prepared with white mustard, is less spicy and more bitter. Particularly popular in the country is the traditional old-fashioned mustard, obtained with the use of white mustard and black mustard. In French cuisine, mustard accompanies meat dishes and is added to the popular sauces remoulade and vinaigrette.
The mustard widespread in Japan is called karashi, it is particularly hot and you get grinding the seeds of Brassica nigra, Brassica alba and Brassica juncea and mixing them with warm water at 40 °. The spicy taste must be the absence of the wheat in the base compound.
It is used to flavor nikuman, popular snack national, and accompanies popular dishes such as oden, restricted soup made with dashi fish broth, and the shumai, dumplings of Chinese cuisine popular in Japan. In the market there are also non-spicy mustards, similar to those that are sold, called Yo garashi. All mustards on the market in Japan are called karashi or mastādo, and buy the product requires some attention.

A little while ago I was involved in a conversation with someone about being able to have a button on your computer to trigger a rimshot noise, or a 'wah-wah-wahhh' (yes, of course I was in a pub).
In a moment of bordem the idea returned to me this weekend, and then I remembered we now have the <audio> tag (actually we've had it for over 18 months).
Now the bookmarklet is no code at all!
Drag the bookmarklet up to your bookmark bar, and if the browser supports HTML5, then you can fire off a rimshot or 'wah-wah-wahh' next time you near something daft in the office!
2009-07-07 I've since updated the bookmarklet to load both .wav and .ogg with correct mime types (Google code was serving it as application/x-octstream (thing - you know what I mean) ), and I've switched around the order in which they're being served. Apparently Safari is quite good at just getting the audio just to work, whereas Firefox is a little more picky!
I'm running the sound files off of a Google code project, so if you want some other daft sound, ping me and we'll add it in (or if you have better sound files).
