You filled out your ballots, we tallied 'em up and the results of the 2016 Ultimate Classic Rock Awards are in. Here's a look at this year's big winners in each of the categories.
Paul Simon put in a strong showing among this year's contenders, winning Artist of the Year on the strength of his recent Stranger to Stranger LP, which won for Album of the Year while placing its second single, "Cool Papa Bell," second in the Song of the Year category.
"Cool Papa Bell" came in behind the Monkees' "Me & Magdalena," and although Song of the Year was the only category the group won, they placed among the top three in two others: Artist of the Year, placing third behind Simon and Axl Rose, and Album of the Year, where their Good Times! LP was sandwiched between Simon's Stranger to Stranger and David Bowie's Blackstar.
Bowie saw solid turnout at the polls as well, coming in first in the Reissue of the Year category — ahead of the Beatles and Pink Floyd — and placing in Album of the Year as well as Song of the Year (for "Lazarus," from the Blackstar LP). Check out the complete list of top vote-getters below, and take a look at the Ultimate Classic Rock Awards category page for a full rundown of the various contenders in each category.

Ok Guys. A little help here please. How the heck do I get Dek's PCIII .djm map file uploaded? It doesn't work like pix uploads and I've tried copying and pasting and that doesn't work. What's the deal?
We are not allowing direct uploads. You need to contact Wardog.
Thanks, but how do you do that. I've PMed him before with no response .
He will get back to you in time. He's got one of them real jobs and a family too.
Do you have DEK'S pc111 map in your possession?
The new pipe looks sweet. Have you done a "compare" in the PC software between Dek's Map and the stock map to see where the differences are?
COOL...can't wait until it's posted. Thanks Jim.
Here is a link to the map so you can download it until I get around to setting up the PCIIIMaps webpage.
right click and select "save link as" and remember to say a big thank you to Jim.
Thanks to Dek and Jim. The map works great.
Dek, I presume that map is sans O2 sensor??
Who is Trenchtractor? Watch my YouTube. See my BikePics.
According to Yamaha, ALL PCIII applications require the disconnect of the 02 sensor. Otherwise, the ECU will continue to read it and confuse the PCIII overide programming.
Where is the 02 Sensor? How do I disconnect it? Will disconnecting it have any other impact on the bike? Error codes etc?
THANK YOU!! Let you know how it runs and then I will do the sprocket change.

Nearly all of Glenwood Park's retail component (48,600 square feet) has changed hands, and the buyer, Coro Realty, sounds over the moon with its prospects. Retail space at the eco-conscious, mixed-use village is 81 percent occupied — with attractions like Gunshow and The Shed, among others — after years of relative difficulties. Said company partner Robert Fransen: "People will continue to gravitate to the combination of live, work and play within a walkable community, particularly one with Glenwood Park's dynamic streetscape and great architecture."

Nevada Division of Forestry Pilot Nick Lopes (left) and Helicopter Manager Lee Stewart (right) receive letters of appreciation from Commander Shane Yates, operations manager at Naval Air Station, Fallon, for their assistance in rescuing skiers near Heavenly, Nevada.
MINDEN, Nev. — When a skier went missing from Heavenly Ski Resort on March 3, an air-based search was determined to be the best way to look for the individual in the mountainous terrain.
Within an hour of being called out to the mission, the Nevada Division of Forestry's helicopter crew spotted the skier. The skier was not in a position to be rescued on foot because of heavy snow, so Fallon Naval Air Station personnel, who were also part of the search and rescue mission, recovered the skier from its helicopter.
Meanwhile, NDF's crew spotted two more skiers, who also appeared to be in trouble and out of resort's boundary. Contact was made with the two additional skiers, and it was determined that because of heavy snow and hypothermia setting in, that naval ground crews would rescue the skiers.
NDF's air operations provide search and rescue support, though the helicopter crew's primary mission is initial attacks on wildland fires. The crew averages 100 hours of flight time 35 days a year helping to fight wildfires.

Ruth Ware writes another twisty tale for us to devour. This time around there's a surprise letter from an attorney, a will to be read, new family members, and too many secrets to keep quiet. Ware does her typical terrific job of sussing out the motivations and fears of her characters, and her story is flooded with tension. She delivers the goods: a creepy psychological portrait of a family rife with lies and desperation. Delicious! Recommended By Dianah H., Powells.com
Publisher Comments
From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of In a Dark, Dark Wood, The Woman in Cabin 10, and The Lying Game comes Ruth Ware's highly anticipated fourth novel.
On a day that begins like any other, Hal receives a mysterious letter bequeathing her a substantial inheritance. She realizes very quickly that the letter was sent to the wrong person — but also that the cold-reading skills she's honed as a tarot card reader might help her claim the money.
Soon, Hal finds herself at the funeral of the deceased…where it dawns on her that there is something very, very wrong about this strange situation and the inheritance at the center of it.
Full of spellbinding menace and told in Ruth Ware's signature suspenseful style, this is an unputdownable thriller from the Agatha Christie of our time.
"Ware's novels continue to evoke comparison to Agatha Christie; they certainly have that classic flavor despite the contemporary settings. Expertly paced, expertly crafted." Kirkus (Starred Review)
"Ware's fourth novel is her best yet, with steadily increasing tension, a complicated twisty mystery, and a sharp, sympathetic heroine who's up to the challenge of solving it… well-crafted, gothic-tinged suspense." Library Journal (Starred Review)
"Ruth Ware is a magician. Her novels — suspenseful, sophisticated, relentlessly compelling — blow the dust off half a dozen crime genres, from Golden Age whodunits to psychological suspense. And The Death of Mrs. Westaway, her latest, is also her best: a dark and dramatic thriller, part murder mystery, part family drama, altogether riveting. More, please, and soon." A. J. Finn, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Woman in the Window
Ruth Ware grew up in Sussex, on the south coast of England. After graduating from Manchester University she moved to Paris, before settling in North London.

Actinic Keratosis, or AKs, are precancerous lesions that have the potential to turn into squamous cell carcinoma. AKs are caused by repeated exposure to the sun. They appear as rough spots on the areas of the skin that were affected by the sun.
The extent of treatment depends on the severity of the precancerous lesions. Most lesions may be treated with liquid nitrogen or a topical chemotherapy cream.


Odysseus and the nymph Calypso.
Odysseus was a great figure from Greek mythology: he was the king of Ithaca who fought in the Trojan War for ten years; after the war he spent the next ten years attempting to return home while enduring many trials and tribulations, not only among cannibals and cyclopes, sea monsters and sirens, but also among lovely women such as Circe and Calypso. The painting above is of Odysseus and Calypso. I am not sure who the artist is, but it looks like something from the 19th century.
There were different attitudes towards Odysseus in the ancient world: the Greeks both loved and hated him, since he was the prototype of not only a great war hero, but also of an amoral man who would say or do anything to achieve his goals. The Romans simply hated him, as they saw him as a symbol of what they considered the sleazy and duplicitous character of the Greeks in general.
There are many different depictions of Odysseus throughout the history of literature, but my favorite depiction of Odysseus is that of the Iliad and the Odyssey, the two great, ancient Greek epic poems at the fountain head of all Western literature. In these poems Odysseus is not only a great man of action but also a man of great intellect: two things which have always been prized, but especially so in the ancient Greek world. The fact that he endured many things, journeyed to many different places, and had to suffer much before he could return home from the Trojan War has always caught the imaginations of generations for over three thousand years.
There is a classic epithet used for Odysseus by Homer, the poet behind the Iliad and Odyssey: "polytropos" which roughly means "a man of many turns". This is often interpreted as either "a man who is much traveled or wandering" or "a man who is wily and crafty". The meaning is ambiguous, and deliberately so, since Odysseus was all of these things. Which shade of Odysseus one prefers, is usually left up to the reader of whatever work in which Odysseus is being portrayed.
What I like is that Odysseus had to go through many things in life, and although my life is certainly not as glamorous as his, the story of someone having to endure different trials is one with which most people can identify. This is one of the reasons why Odysseus has been and remains to this day one of the most enduring figures in all of literature. It is one of the reasons I have chosen to use his name as my moniker. It seems appropriate at this point in my journey of blogging.

Budweiser brewer sells Australian unit to pay off debt

BRUSSELS (AP) — AB Inbev, the world's biggest brewer with brands like Budweiser and Corona, said Friday it is selling its unit in Australia to reduce debt after it decided against listing shares in Asia.
The company is selling Carlton & United Breweries for $16 billion AUD ($11.3 billion) to Japanese rival Asahi Group.
AB Inbev, which is based in Belgium, said it will use almost all the money from the deal to pay down debt. The company has accrued a mountain of debt – about $100 billion – after going on an acquisition spree, including buying Anheuser-Busch in 2008 and its next closest rival, SABMiller, in 2015.
The SABMiller deal, which was worth some $107 billion at the time, gave the company broader reach in fast-growing markets in Asia and Africa at a time when consumers were shifting toward smaller brands like microbrews.
It gave it almost a third of the global beer market and put established brands that had formerly been rivals under the same roof – American icons Budweiser and Miller, for example.
AB Inbev has sought to shed some brands to slim down its debt load and had planned to list some shares on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange to further bolster its finances. But it said this month that it no longer planned to list those shares due to tough market conditions.

Home Article The Accidental Feminist:
The Accidental Feminist:
by Lindsay Sobel
Sure, George W. Bush did away with the White House Women's Office of Initiatives and Outreach. He's given us a first lady who prefers to be seen and not heard. He hired women with much fanfare, then promptly dismissed their input and humiliated them in public. (Think Dick Cheney usurping Condoleezza Rice's authority and the repeated episodes in which Bush publicly contradicted and muzzled Christine Todd Whitman.) He's hacking away at the right to choose, and he's eliminating birth control coverage for federal employees. Never mind that. In his first hundred days, George Bush has done feminists a big favor.
I realized the extent of Bush's contribution at this past weekend's Women's Leadership Summit sponsored by Harvard's John F. Kennedy School of Government and the American Bar Association. Though discussions ranged from old-fashioned gender bias to the double-discrimination faced by women of color, the conversation invariably returned to work/family balance. How can women achieve positions of power in anywhere near equal numbers so long as power comes with working endless hours -- and while women still bear a disproportionate responsibility for childrearing? And how can they become leaders if they actually value time spent with our kids?
Women's rights advocates frequently strategize about how to attain family friendly workplaces, but it's important to remember that work/family balance affects everyone. Because women often take more responsibility for children, reasonable workplace policies strongly affect their access to power at work. But men too benefit from a work schedule that allows them to spend time with their families -- or participate in community life. And children are much better off when their parents aren't worked to the bone.
Reasonable work schedules are good for employers too, according to the conference's report, "An Unfinished Agenda." "A wide array of research indicates that part time employees are more productive than their full time counterparts, particularly those working sweatshop schedules," writes Stanford Law School's Deborah Rhode. Rhode suggests that people working those sweatshop hours are more likely to suffer from substance abuse and health disorders related to stress; that's not good for them or their employers.
The women at the conference are not the only ones to point out the drawbacks of a workplace that demands an increasingly larger fraction of every day. Former Labor Secretary and American Prospect national editor Robert Reich, Director of the Radcliffe Public Policy Center Paula Rayman, and economics journalist Ann Crittenden have all recently published books demanding a more family friendly workplace. At the conference, former Attorney General Janet Reno echoed the common call for teamwork, flextime, and telecommuting to help employees work and parent -- policies she reported implementing in her Justice Department.
Has President Bush endorsed the fine work of the conference? Not exactly. The women spent their weekend (scheduled to run late on Friday and all day Saturday) discussing the importance of not working too long or too late. But President Bush spends most weekends practicing what the women preach; he leaves the work of Washington, relaxing at Camp David or his Texas ranch. Over his first 100 plus days, Bush has consistently worked from about 7 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. Monday through Thursday -- and less on Fridays. As Reno proposed, he relies on teamwork to get the job done.
This choice has its benefits. Unlike puffy-eyed President Clinton, Bush looks rested and sharp. If I trusted his motives at all, I'd think he was doing us a service by making sure he's alert and energized.
But as a man, Bush has never been forced to make the same choice women so often make. The conferees took care to note that women will never be able to achieve a reasonable work/family balance unless men participate. According to the conference report, 90 percent of law firms permit part-time schedules for parents, but only 2-3 percent of lawyers take advantage of the offer. That's because women who'd like to work part-time know that, like so many employers, law firms hold working mothers to higher standards; they assume women raising children are less committed to their work and force them to work extra hard to prove otherwise. If men demanded flexible workplaces, they'd be able to equally share parenting responsibilities -- and working mothers could ask for improved schedules without dredging up a bunch of nasty stereotypes.
Several powerful conferees said they have taken big risks to protect their family time -- and set an example for others. Said Margaret Marshall, Chief Justice of the Supreme Judicial Court of Massachusetts, "It takes enormous risks on my part [to] remind [coworkers] that I am a wife, a stepmother, and a daughter." Former Canadian Prime Minister Kim Campbell reported setting the same example, arguing, "If we can't get the business of government done in normal business hours, there's something wrong with us." These women have it right. No one should have to choose between professional success and family. But as people have succumbed to the indignities of the rat race, they've had to do just that.
Three cheers for George Bush. He -- a man with an important job -- has joined with Marshall and Campbell to prove that one can do the business of government during daylight hours -- with time for a midday workout. Now it's true that Bush has never called for workers across the country to follow his lead and demand a more balanced life. (In fact if Bush had his druthers, he'd enfeeble unions, making it harder for workers to demand anything whatsoever.)
But Bush has given the entire country something almost as valuable -- his example. With Bush in mind, working parents can demand a promotion and nights and weekends off. After all, why should they have to work longer hours than the most powerful man in the world? Yesterday's feminists and labor activists called for bread and roses. Today's want power and time to watch Little League. And our friend Dubya is leading the way.

Apple trees are native to a cold climate, and there is a rich history of pasty white northern natives getting a whopper of a sunburn the first time they ventrure into the Southern California sun.
It can hit well over 100 degrees F here as early as April, and many of the apple trees are not fully leafed out yet. This leaves the bark exposed to the direct intense sun, which can kill it as seen above, almost invariably on the southern side. The damage is not readily apparent however, except to a nasty worm pictured below called the Pacific Flathead Borer. The adult beetle has a knack for finding this sunburnt bark and laying an egg on it. The grub hatches and eats through the botton of the egg and into the sun-damaged bark, which can no longer "sap" out the invader. It then proceeds to the edge of the healthy bark to feed on the cambium layer, tunneling along and leaving a trail of sawdust under the bark. If it makes it all the way around the young tree, it will girdle it and kill it from there up.
The preventative remedy for this is to apply a layer of sunscreen in the form of white latex paint diluted 50% with water. Paint the whole trunk, paying special attention to the southern exposure, the graft union near the ground, and the tops of any exposed branches that will get direct sun without leaf cover. Folks in northern climates also do this, but for different reasons; they do it so that the winter sun does not prematurely thaw a section of bark to start the sap flowing, which will freeze and burst in a cold spell.
We'll cover more on finding the borers in a later post.
The tropics of Africa do not have seasons like we know them; instead life is governed by the rainy season, which consists of the short rains and the long rains.
The long rains in Sierra Leone start in June, and that is the planting time also if you expect your trees to live through their first year. Shipping via air freight can still take between 8-14 days and they may spend some time in a sweltering tropical cargo warehouse, and so it is best for the trees to be dormant; but where do you find dormant Anna and Dorsett Golden apple trees in June?
My strategy is to sprout apple trees from seed in January, bud graft them by late April, strip the leaves in mid-May, and refrigerate them for two weeks before shipping. In order to do this I have to sprout them in a mini-greenhouse over a heat mat, and also give them a few hours of extra light with a grow-light. We'll see how they do out in the garden bed with cooler soil temperatures (in the 60's).
EMLA 111 apple rootstock has resistance to wooly aphid, a major pest in parts of the world that can cripple apple trees. But to get more of this rootstock you cannot just plant seeds from it; it must be cloned. An easy way to do this is with a stool bed, and this example shows how to do it in a pot.
Last year I allowed an EMLA 111 rootstock to grow up in a pot and then cut it off at ground level. As the roots started sending up shoots, I put a bottomless pot on top and started filling it up with a mixture of peat moss and perlite (sawdust works well also). What resulted is that the shoots rooted into the peat quite nicely. While they were growing, I also bud-grafted each shoot with the desired variety.
Taking advantage of the beautiful weather this afternoon I pulled the top pot off and raked back the peat, exposing the rooted shoots. I dug down and was able to get the clippers under the root mass, and cut the two shoots free from the parent roots and potted them up. The potted parent roots will continue to produce rooted suckers like this every year.
I ended up with two new trees pictured below called "sleeping eyes" because the dormant bud graft looks like an eye. This spring the grafted bud will send forth a shoot that will become the trunk of the desired variety on the new tree, and it will have wooly aphid-resistant roots. Now I can buy these rootstocks already grown for only about 60 cents each, and so I'm not going to go into production; but its nice to be able to show folks in Africa who can't just mail order them how to do this ancient and useful craft.
After a 4-day storm that dumped 5 feet of snow in the local mountains, we were up at Silverwood Lake State Recreation Area today delivering the trees we've been growing out for them and taking cuttings from the existing trees for grafting the remaining trees they need for rejuvinating their historic orchard. These trees will consist of varieties grown here and other orchards in the local mountains. We have pretty good documentation both of the varieties and the history of the orchards, and this seems to be the perfect place for them. The elevation is in the foothills which receives frost and cold, but still gets summer heat that apples seem to like as it kills fireblight before it does much damage.
Ripening here about this time is Cocktail Grapefruit, which according to University of California, Riverside's Citrus Variety Collection is actually not a grapefruit at all but a hybrid of Siamese Sweet pummelo and Frua mandarin. The cross was made at Riverside, possibly in the 1950s. The variety was never officially released by the University of California, Riverside, but somehow made it into the public sector.
From the outside it looks and smells like a grapefruit, and it contains a tremendous amout of juice. However it is quite mild, very sweet with almost no acid at all but still with a grapefruit-type taste. A couple of them will give you a decent-sized glass of refreshing juice that's easy to down in a few gulps. The tree bears heavy crops of fruits that need to be thinned or they will break branches off the tree. Color is not a reliable indicator of ripeness, and it is not uncommon to have a greenish tint to the thick rind even when fully ripe. They hang well on the tree but dry out a bit if left too long. A nice substitute for folks who enjoy grapefruit but have stomach problems because of the acid. You probably won't find them in stores, so you'll have to grow your own.
The Dorsett Golden tree budded overnight. I know this because just yesterday I stripped the rest of the leaves off of it, and nothing was happening. Today I decided I better cut the scionwood from it, and to my shock there was a dozen branch tips swelling with the unmistakable green of leaf tips (Dorsett Golden sprouts leaves first, then blossoms against the green background).
I checked the Lady Williams tree, and sure enough, they still aren't ripe; I figure about another week or two, meaning once again we have apple season overlap. Speaking of seasons, just a week ago I was whining about needing rain; today the skys have opened up and we're getting hammered with a warm, steady downpour typical of El Niño storms.
While we're sitting around waiting for Lady Williams apple to ripen, I'll review some citrus that is just starting to ripen here, starting with Nagami Kumquat.
Kumquats are eaten whole, and the skin is very sweet while the juice is tart. If you're not fond of such tartness, the strategy is to bite the tip off, squeeze the tart juice out, and then eat the pleasantly sweet-tart flesh as one bite. We'll take these backpacking, as they pack well and you don't have to mess with peeling it; they are a welcome change to the dried fruit we usually have.
On Flying Dragon dwarfing rootstock, the minute trees can be kept on the patio in a large pot, and the fruit hangs on well on the tree for months. Last year a wayward truck knocked all the fruits off our tree, and so we're happy to finally get some.
The roses have hung on a long time this year; I took this photo this morning as it may be the last of them. Our balmy, mild weather is due to come to a crashing end next week with the arrival of a string of El Niño-driven storms that threaten to dump 6 to 8 inches of rain in the valleys and feet of snow in the mountains. Hard to believe it today, as it was blue sky and about 74 degrees.
Rain like this may be common in other parts of the country, but we often only get six inches of rain all year, and so it could be devastating to us. The main danger is in the areas in the mountains and foothills that burnt this year, as rains like this can turn dry canyons into flows that resemble brown wet concrete that sweeps cars, houses, and bridges down to the ocean. However we really do need the snow, as a good snowpack melts into the ground slowly recharging underground water tables and is our insurance against drought.
One other strange benifit is that heavy, extended rains act the same as chilling hours, giving excellent crop sets in the San Juaquin valley. It is not fully understood why, other than something is washed off the trees that make them think they've had a cold winter. The last time this happened was 1995, after an almost tropical winter with very warm temps and heavy rains had farmers terrified of erratic fruit sets; instead, records were broken with heavy crops all around. We can only hope for the same this year.
OK, its not exactly midnight, but I'm still out working well past dark under the spotlights trying to get the potted apple trees ready to send out to schools to free up my time for the grafting mayhem that's about to start in about a month. I'm happy for the good weather but we really could use some rain.
Today was the day to dig up the seedling rootstocks I started from seed back in June. I bud grafted them back in September when they were still only about 3/16″ in diameter, and every single graft took.
This little guy is a complete apple tree; if you look closely at the top on the left hand side you will see the bud graft. These were grafted with Anna and Dorsett Golden, and will be refrigerated for a couple weeks and then shipped to the tropics to become starter orchards and supply scionwood for further propagation. As you can tell they will be cheap to ship, and with no graft to heal and a seedling rootstock pushing it, they should grow like a rocket. Anna and Dorsett Golden will fruit the second year even on seedling rootstock, and so they will at least get a few apples to whet their tastebuds next year.
At the same time the first seed from this year's batch sprouted today, which means I'm able to successfully propagate rootstocks year round in order to ship to tropic countries to hit the start of their rainy season, typically the best time to plant.

Wowza! So its been a couple of months since I last did a blog piece, pathetic really when I've only done 3 blogs in total. Though many people have heard about my trip to Sierra Leone or have seen my videos I thought that I should do a small blog piece to go in my "archive".
In short, I went to Sierra Leone in September as part of a medical camp with 23 other volunteers as part of Better Lives Foundation (BLF) to offer free medical care to the less fortunate. Having just qualified as a pharmacist I thought this was definitely the first step I should take as I started my career.
I hope to do another blog soon, hopefully this time it will be within the next three months, so watch this space!
Once again thank you to BLF for allowing me to be part of the September 2012 camp and I look forward to the camps to come.

It is a beautiful summer's morning back in Norfolk from where I am writing this blog post. Since coming home, most of my time has been occupied with unpacking and generally settling back in. It is a wonder how you can accumulate so much in just 9 months?! I think I probably mention how quickly time flies in most blog posts, but it is surreal that one year at Cambridge has already passed by. The amount I have 'learnt' both academically, culturally and personally in three terms has been immense.
The two months since my last blog post have been slightly different from my previous two terms at Cambridge. The advantage of exams in Week 0 is that the rest of the Easter Term, in comparison, is relatively more relaxed. Our lectures finished at the end of the Lent Term, which meant suddenly there was just that little bit more time for the weekly essay and seeing more of Cambridge! With friends and family coming to stay, it has been fun exploring different parts of the city, including the beautiful Botanical Gardens.
I moved onto studying British Economic and Social History from 1880 onwards which has been fascinating. After studying political history for the same period last term, the two papers really complemented each other, and enriched my understanding of such an interesting period. I particularly enjoyed writing on the impact of the two world wars on the position of women, and reached some surprising conclusions. I have also enjoyed getting to grips with some of the challenges of economic history, exploring the real reasons behind Britain's relative decline at various times, as opposed to the ones commonly cited by the press and politicians at the time.
The Easter Term has also played host to three performances by the Cavendish Chorale; our concert at the start of term in St Edmund's Chapel, followed by two performances at the college's 50th Anniversary Super Garden Party. It was brilliant that we were able to put on our own concert, singing a variety of pieces from Mozart's 'Ave Verum Corpus' to Bob Dylan's 'To Make You Feel My Love'. We performed to our biggest audience at the Garden Party, a wonderful event bringing people together across the ages and the wider college community, to celebrate an important milestone in the history of the college. Keeping in line with the 60s theme, we sang a number of pieces from the era, including one of my favourites – Simon and Garfunkel's 'A Bridge Over Troubled Water', with some beautiful 3-part harmonies, arranged by our director Susie Self.

Q: Interesting overlapping UIScrollView conundrum Say you have two scrollviews, one vertical and one horizontal, that intersect in a "plus sign" pattern. Say you have one object (a UIImageView for example) in the center of the plus. If you touch the object and scroll upward, you want the object to scroll upward in the vertical scrollview. But if you touch the object and scroll sideways, you want it to scroll within the horizontal scrollview.
Problems:

*

*Which scrollview is the object initially in? Or is it in neither? You don't know which scrollview the object is in until you detect which scrollview began scrolling.

*If the vertical scrollview is on top, the horizontal scrollview would not receive touches in the center area where the scrollviews overlap.
Can anyone think of any solutions to this problem? (Change the design is not a solution)
Another way to think about it is this: You have a 100x100 grid of tiles, but you can only see a 10x10 grid on the screen at once. You want to be able to scroll each row sideways, but you also want to be able to scroll each column vertically. Obviously the scroll position would have to lock to the nearest multiple of tile size before each new touch/scroll began. But it means that at any given time any tile could be in either a horizontal or vertical scrollview.

A: Use a (single) scroll view (with directionLockEnabled = YES) for its physics, but don't actually make it the superview of your tiles.
See the WWDC2012 video "Enhancing User Experience with Scroll Views" for more on this technique.

Abuja — The Federal Government, through the Ministry of Lands, Housing and Urban Development, the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), the National Population Commission (NPC) and the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS), has developed a framework to determine whether Nigerians are adequately housed or not through a national housing survey.
Speaking at the weekend at the presentation of the 2014 ministerial platform, the Minister of Housing, Lands and Urban Development, Mrs. Akon Eyakenyi, said the overall aim of the survey is to help establish the actual number of housing deficit in the country instead of relying on forecast and the quantum of the investments needed to meaningful address the housing gap as well as the capacity requirements for transforming the housing and urban development sector.
On the high cost of building materials, she said government has concluded arrangement with building materials manufacturers on concession initiative. This, according to her, is intended to bring down the cost of housing development in the country. She said government will grant tax relief and other concessions, while the building and construction materials producers are expected to reciprocate through drastic reduction in the prices of the building components.
She acknowledged that government has signed a concessionary agreement with Messrs New FESTAC Property Development Company to build a new phase of Housing units to be called FESTAC Phase 11. According to her, only 3,798 Certificates of Occupancy have been granted, 1,756 consented granted for land titles and 3,787 serviced plots have been created by the ministry.
The new housing units which will be built on 1,126 hectares of reclaimed land from the swampy areas surround the town, adding that government is making efforts to restore FESTAC town to its glory.
According to her, President Goodluck Jonathan, has directed that the glory of FESTAC town be restored back. She said stakeholders in the sector, have been consulted with the view to addressing issues militating against the restoration of the town. She said the Ministry between July 2010 and September 2014, was able to able to add 43,126 housing units to the national housing stock through the various interventions by the Federal Mortgage Bank of Nigeria (FMBN) and Federal Housing Authority (FHA). She added that the FHA would be repositioned and reengineered to deliver on its mandate.
According to her, government has developed a framework for conducting a National Housing Survey, to determine whether Nigerians are adequately housed or not, adding that this would be done in collaboration with the NPC and the NBS.

The National Assembly was informed that policy regarding Hajj 2019 will be devised in three months.
This was informed by Minister of Religious Affairs and Interfaith Harmony Noor-ul-Haq Qadri, while responding to a question during Question Hour.
The Minister said the process for formulation of Hajj policy and Plan 2019 has been initiated. He said decision regarding Hajj dues to be collected per Haji will be taken after consultation with all the stakeholders including the designated airlines in due course of time and the House will be informed accordingly.
Responding to another question, he said Prime Minister Imran Khan and his government are committed to develop Pakistan on the pattern of the State of Madina.
The Minister said dialogue among various religious communities of Pakistan is vital for interfaith harmony in the country. He said the government is planning to organize an international interfaith harmony conference next year.
Minister of State for Housing and Works Shabbir Ali informed the House that the government is committed to provide housing facilities to the people under Naya Pakistan Housing Scheme. He said initially this program has been launched in some districts of Pakistan as a pilot project, but it will be expanded to other districts in the next phase. He said expansion of scheme will be undertaken after due consultation.
Responding to a calling attention notice, Minister for Water Resources Faisal Vawda assured that concerns of Sindh regarding non-provision of water according to 1991 water accord will be addressed.
He said 58 percent water theft has been reported in Karachi and the issue will be addressed in consultation with the Sindh government. He said a third party neutral audit of water theft can also be arranged.
The Minister said that concerns of other provinces over water issue will also be addressed on priority basis.
Minister for Water Resources Faisal Vawda has rejected the impression that data of all bank accounts of Pakistan has been hacked.
Responding to a point of order raised by Abdul Qadir Patel, he said only one account of Bank Islami has been hacked and the State Bank of Pakistan is looking into the matter.
Parliamentary Secretary on National Health Services, Regulations and Coordination Nausheen Hamid said that PIMS and Polyclinic hospitals of Islamabad have separate psychiatry departments.
Responding to a question, thirty-nine thousand patients for mental disorders have been registered at PIMS since 2017.
Speaking on a point of order MMA leader Maulana Abdul Wasay criticized the tendency of maligning religious people.
He said religious parties and their leadership had played a pivotal role in the creation of Pakistan and keeping the country united. He said no religious person is involved in any kind of corruption. He said no Islamic seminary is involved in terrorism. He urged the government to file a review petition in the Supreme Court in Aasia Bibi case.
Speaking on another point of order, PTI leader Ramesh Kumar Vankwani invited parliamentarians to join him at his residence in Islamabad tonight to celebrate Diwali festival. He said all parliamentary leaders and heads of political parties should attend the event to make it celebrations for the progress and prosperity of entire Pakistan.
PML-N leader and former Prime Minister Shahid Khaqan Abbasi, on a point of order, urged the chair to form a special committee of the House to investigate into the allegations leveled by Faisal Vawda regarding theft of water share of Sindh and Balochistan. He said the chair can also refer this matter to the concerned standing committee of the National Assembly .

Simple solution for viral diseases
Non-toxic perlingual tablets in infinitesimal doses
Interferons are proteins and more specifically glycoproteins (from the cytokine family).
They are originally produced by cells of the immune system, but also by other types of cells depending on the subtypes.
Interferon comes from the word interfere (prevent, hinder, oppose): these are polypeptides comprising about 160 amino acids, produced naturally by our body to respond to aggression: viruses, bacteria, parasites or tumor cells. There are multiple varieties of interferons (about 300) but the most important are the alpha"α",the beta "β"and the gama "ɣ". There are also other natural interferons, but they can only be taken for cultivation on humans who have not undergone any antibiotic treatment or vaccine. These interferons taken from these people are the "keystones" for all others.
Based on their biological properties and cellular origin, two main types of interferons are distinguishable:
Type 1 interferons mainly include alpha"α"and beta"β,"secreted primarily by macrophages(α)and fibroblasts (β). Interferon"α" and interferon "β" have antiviral, antitumor and anti-proliferative activity: they cause the activation of the synthesis of enzymes inhibiting the replication of viral or cellular DNA. In addition, it causes specific immunity to activate macrophages and NK cells by increasing the expression of antigens.
The interferon type 2 or gamma "ɣ" is produced mainly by T cells and the cells "Natural Killer" (NK cells) of which the synthesis is stimulated by IGIF (gamma inducing factor): the interferon-gamma "inducing factor ". Gamma interferon "ɣ" is involved in regulating immune and inflammatory responses. It has antiviral and anti-tumor properties and promotes the effects of Interferons alpha "α" and beta "β". It increases the phagocytic activity of macrophages and the expression of antigens. Gamma interferon "ɣ" is used in patients with severe infections. Recombinant "α '' interferon alpha is used in antiviral therapy (hepatitis B and C, Kaposi sarcoma associated with AIDS) and anti-cancer therapy (kidney cancer, melanoma, tricholeucocyte leukemia). Alpha "α," beta (β) and gamma "ɣ" interferons are inducible by the presence of viral genomes; their detections apparently show an ongoing viral infection, without presuming the nature of the virus in question. More generally, alpha interferons "α," beta "β" and gamma "ɣ" can be detected at significant rates (PCR example with an amplification cycle of less than 35). The World Health Organization (WHO) admits that all PCR tests performed for SARS 2 Covid 19 at a higher amplification threshold from 35 cycles or more are invalid (The CDC does not recognize an infection above 28 cycles which means that 90% of declared cases of Covid 19 are not valid) . In addition, how can we set up PCR tests for Covid 19 without any measurement standard, since the sequences have not been isolated. It is for this reason that we do graduate cycles at 35 in order to find a trace of ARN without knowing what it corresponds to since the immune system as soon as you are in contact, even with an Influenza virus will cause interferon proteins: however, this does not prove in any way that you are in the inflammatory phase by Covid 19, for example, since your body is only defending itself, but then one speaks of "cases", though very numerous, but far from being sick. It should be added that with the multitude of variants, the only valid tests are blood or salivary samples. Vaccination does not prevent a new infection with a new variant that will often be generated by a new vaccine.
Since the discovery of the tiny omega interferon genes in humans about 30 years ago, the tiny omega interferon "ω" has also been identified in groups of animals: felines, pigs, equines, rabbits, cattle and serotine bats, but has not been found in dogs or mice. Treatment with tiny omega interferon may be effective for patients resistant to interferon alpha "α" because the antigenic structure of the tiny omega interferon "ω" is far from the alpha "α," gamma "β'' and gamma "ɣ " interferons.
Interferon has raised many hopes for the control of many immunological pathologies since its discovery in 1956.
Interferons are known as one of the key factors of natural origin that can help the immune system solve multiple viral, bacterial, parasitic and oncological pathologies. The three different alpha interferons "α", beta "β" and gamma "ɣ" have been the subject of extensive research and development in medical applications.
However, despite these long periods of research, the first alpha "α" interferon that was put on the market in the 1980s administered as an injection at doses of multiple million molecular units was applied only in a limited manner because of its toxicity, its price but also its iatrogenic effects. Despite positive results on various degenerative or viral pathologies such as Hepatitis C, multiple sclerosis or corona or retrovirus viruses although usually no retroviruses occur naturally in humans...
As these are molecules of geometric shapes in alpha structures "α" beta (β) and gamma "ɣ": because of their proteolytic degradations, in the gastric environment, the possibility of administration of the various interferons orally had never be considered.
There were obstacles to overcome:
duplication and stabilization
hydrophobic peculiarity
Ideal storage at low temperature of 4 degrees Celsius
It was only a few years ago that a group of the Fulmina Institute decided not to adhere to these traditional and restrictive scientific certainties. Indeed, the various interferons including the alpha"α"were identified in human nasal secretions during periods of particular viral pre-infections in China and Hong Kong in 2002 during the epidemic of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS) CoV-1.
It has been noted that these interferon substances rigorously modulate the immune response.
The Fulmina Institute team persisted in this research by using the alpha "α'' interferon through the membranes of the palate and nasal cavities (rhinopharynx) in infinitesimal doses. The results of these trials revealed that by exposing the lymphatic plexus of oral or nasal mucous tissue in contact with a dose in weak molecular units of interferons, triggered a mechanism of keys of activations but also of stimulations of the immune system during attempts of airborne viral infections giving in some people acute or chronic symptoms (symptomatic or asymptomatic).
Historically, this discovery is not new, but it has been carefully shelved. Indeed, Russian, Chinese, Korean and South American researchers had discovered the therapeutic use of sublingual interferons as early as the early 1960s, long before so-called Western technology manufactured its first commercial variety of interferons. The word interferon was attributed in 1957 by the two researchers: Isaacs and Lindenman.
In 1972, interferon trials were successfully tested against viruses until the 1980s.
These various "atypical" scientific researchers have confirmed that interferons in nasal secretions represent an important defense mechanism as highly effective remedies against viral diseases, capable of transmitting information to the entire immune system chain. These nasal secretions containing interferons do not prove in any way that the person is at the stage of pathology since his body only expresses an immune reaction...
In 1985, in the United States and primarily in Texas, a biotechnology company marketed an oral interferon product to treat viral respiratory infections on cattle and horses in Texas. It was a derivative of interferons β (beta) of leukocytes: this product has had some success despite the preservation of the unstable product, in tablets.
For problems of scientific and economic battles, this product did not receive the approval of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in the United States: endless quarrels ensued to stifle this discovery momentarily.
Later, South American and Cuban scientists increased the purification and production of interferons. They were able to solve the problems of impurities by identifying the active agent. They developed extremely pure alpha interferon varieties and high yields in the 1990s. However, there was still a problem of stabilization and culture (duplication).
As for the Korean researchers, they went further in their research and applications at the time. They could not afford to vaccinate a large portion of the population with hepatitis B, so they isolated an interferon, then stabilized it and administered it sublingually, at a rate of one tablet per day, for cycles of three to seven days. In conclusion, they found that patients had developed immunity to the hepatitis B virus... They therefore understood that it was possible to stabilize vaccines under tablets, which was a considerable good for humanity, especially as the price of the product was reduced. It was no longer necessary to keep it at low temperature: there were no toxic effects.
It was later proven that high doses of injectable dose interferons are no more effective during a viral, acute or chronic infection than an infinitesimal dose.
Indeed, a body whose immune response is considered normal, does not produce thousands of units of interferons. Good immune responses, during attacks, will indeed produce nasal secretions only at low doses of interferons.
This normal immune-inducing signal is quantifiable in hundreds of molecular units and not in millions of molecular units of interferons, as had been widespread at that time in the scientific community.
We find ourselves in the same problem today... where some vaccines administered in millions of molecular units cause side and undesirable effects such as variants, for example. It would be enough to stabilize and put in infinitesimal dose tablets in order to have the same desired performance in terms of immune and vaccine response, without the many risks of adverse and perverse effects.
It has become clear that multiple subspecies of interferons from healthy people who have never taken antibiotics and have never received vaccine doses, are capable of producing twenty different subspecies of interferons, which give a very broad spectrum of applications in the field of virology.
Recombinant interferons are only a subspecies. Clinical trials have shown that most recombinant varieties, except that they will be selected specifically for a particular virus, are in infinitesimal doses, whereas the same parent dosage has a notorious toxicity.
We were able to develop a product in tablets with a result, without toxicity, containing two hundred units of interferons for sublingual administration. These tablets are made according to a specific formulation that successfully stabilizes and protects interferon molecules embedded in a vehicular substance of the spagyric carbohydrate complex: these carbohydrates are derived from ancestral trees. A method of duplication (culture) has been designed, allowing us to be as close as possible to the structure of the original strain.
The compound product in its final form acts as a binary formula that only activates when it comes into contact with one of the standard compounds of human saliva. This interferon in this particular mixture acts on sixteen subspecies of interferons simultaneously in cells and sometimes more. This method of preparation, thus represents an essential improvement on the various varieties of interferons.
The interferon molecule, like many other proteins, has hydrophobic properties (not water-binding) hence its instability when suspended in watery solutions. The interferon molecule, to avoid contact with water, looks for other particles, such as the wall of a vial.
The speed of these watery anti-suspension reactions determines the life of injectable products and their storage at room temperature which has a particular influence on the molecular movement of "Brown".
Studies have shown that this sublingual method of preparation is effective against a wide variety of viral pathologies. Tests for Herpes Zoster and Simplex, different influenza strains, hepatitis B and C, as well as on a very broad viral spectrum but also on certain types of arthritis, papillomavirus, multiple sclerosis and chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) which are viral pathologies.
This sublingual preparation has been tested in Kenya, Zimbabwe, Zaire, Uganda, Mexico, the Bahamas, China, the United States, Russia, the United Kingdom and New Zealand. This preparation has been registered as a dietary supplement, without any recognition of therapeutic properties.
In several other studies of many viral pathologies, symptoms such as persistent fatigue, diarrhea and fever, respiratory infections, mucous membrane ulcers and rashes have disappeared with extremely low doses of oral interferons. After eight to ten days of treatment, 90% of the symptoms were removed. The extension of treatment over eight to ten weeks, with a 500 mg tablet dose containing 150 stabilized units of interferons, showed an increase in cd 4 cell counts in patients whose initial counts were well below 200 CD 4.
It is obvious to many researchers that the lymphoblastoid cells of patients who are atrophied by a few pathological causes, produce very low T cells in active potential: the T cell lacks mechanisms to produce normally robust amounts of interferons. This leads to acute or chronic viral pathologies.
In addition, research in the United States has shown that very small amounts of interferons prepared in stabilized tablets and taken in sublinguals, have the ability to protect lymphocytes from the invasion of viruses, bacteria and will cover a wide spectrum of fifty-four viruses.
It should be noted that these U.S. researchers found that interferon bucal significantly reduced the contagious transmission of airborne dispersed particles of viruses.
The administration of very low doses of alpha "α" beta "β" and gamma "ɣ" sublingual interferons produces a powerful immune modulation effect on a multitude of varieties of viral, degenerative and autoimmune pathologies.
This sublingual dietary supplement is recommended with an appropriate diet. The person should abstain from mint, menthol, pork, cold meat, beef, shellfish, dairy products, sugar and strong spices. The tablet has to be allowed to melt under the tongue gently and should be taken at least one hour before breakfast.
No toxicity was found during clinical trials. There is no lethal dose (DL 50).

Alappuzha Backwaters have a vast network of lakes, lagoons and fresh water rivers criss crossing it. Alleppey or commonly know as Alappuzha is a Land Mark between the broad Arabian sea and a net work of rivers flowing into it. Etymologically the word Alappuzha is derived from two words, Ala and Puzha. According to Dr. Gundert the German Lexicographer, Ala means broad and Puzha is river. It is a Land Mark between the broad Arabian sea and a net work of rivers .In the early first decade of the 20th Century the then Viceroy of the Indian Empire, Lord Curzon made a visit in the State to Alleppey, now Alappuzha. Fascinated by the Scenic beauty of the place, in joy and amazement, he said, "Here nature has spent up on the land her richest bounties". In his exhilaration, it is said, he exclaimed, "Alleppey, the Venice of the East". Thus the sobriquet found its place in the world Tourism Map. The presence of a port and a pier, criss -cross roads and numerous bridges across them, a long and unbroken sea coast might have motivated him to make this comparison.
Alappuzha Backwaters have a vast network of lakes, lagoons and fresh water rivers crisscrossing it. You can avail the chance of watching some of the rare migratory birds and diverse animals. By virtue of its proximity to the sea, the town has always enjoyed a unique place in the maritime history of Kerala. It has wonderful hotels and resorts to make your stay a comfortable one.

The Zähringerbrunnen (Zähringen Fountain) is a fountain on Kramgasse in the Old City of Bern, Switzerland.  It is a Swiss Cultural Property of National Significance and is part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site of the Old City of Bern.

History
The Zähringerbrunnen was built in 1535 as a memorial to the founder of Bern, Berchtold von Zähringer. The statue is a bear in full armor, with another bear cub at his feet. The bear represents the bear that, according to legend, Berchtold shot on the Aare peninsula as he was searching for a site to build a city.  The armored bear carries a shield and a banner, both emblazoned with the Zähringen lion.

The basin below the fountain bore the date 1542 until 1889 when the entire basin was replaced.  At the same time the column and figure were repainted.  The old basin was octagonal.  On one face it had the inscription Protege Nos Domine and on another Soli Deo Gloria.  Another face had the date 1542 in Roman numerals and the fourth had an inscription that was unreadable in the 19th century.  The current basin is an exact replica of the Pfeiferbrunnen's basin.

Do you find yourself stressing out regularly and not knowing how to combat it? Are you overwhelmed with the constant state of rushing around to get things done? Do you wish you could just escape for a few hours to avoid all the "stuff" you have to deal with?
Unfortunately, stress is a daily occurrence for most of us. Often it feels more like an hourly event. I have found that stress does not have to control us so here are a 3 easy ways to get calm in times of stress.
1. Breathe. A plain and simple way to get out of a stressful episode and calm ourselves is to focus on our breath. In meditation, focusing on breathing is a way to center on the present moment. It is also helpful to use a count on the inhale, hold, and exhale of breath. The combination of the focus and the count relaxes our brain and body. Try it! First pay attention to your breathing, the inhale and exhale. After a few regular breaths which are often fast paced when under stress, we need to slow our breathing down. Inhale for a count of 4, hold that breath for a count of 5, and then exhale for a count of 6. Repeat for about 4 breaths.
2. Water. Drink some water. Many physical issues we deal with can be part dehydration as most of us do not drink enough water. Not to mention that dehydration can agitate our mood and increase our stress level as well. Now, I am not suggesting that you chug a water bottle, but take a few sips of cool water. Not only will the water aid in hydration, but drinking the water also diverts our attention from the stress to the act of drinking and the cool sensation in our mouth and throat. It cools our body after the rise in temperature that occurs when we are in a stressful state.
3. Thoughts. The most problematic issue that we deal with concerning stress is our thought process. We are already stressed out and negative thoughts overwhelm our brains increasing our stress. The best way to counteract this is to keep a special word or phrase with us that will bring us to a more positive space. For instance, the word "peace" can be used to keep clam or a phrase like, "I am calm, cool, and collected", or "I am not my stress." Personalize this to something meaningful to you.
With our full lives, it is not possible to take a few hours off to decompress or lock ourselves away from the chaos for the afternoon. These are just a few simple ways to calm ourselves down in a matter of minutes.
