You are here: Home / Known effects / Induced currents and fields
The quantum energy of 50 Hz electromagnetic fields is too small to break chemical bonds. It is clear that power-frequency EMFs or radiation does not cause ionisation in the same way that x-rays or alpha particles do. Instead, the main known way 50 Hz fields interact with people is by inducing currents.
Microshocks are a related but different phenomenon.
What currents do magnetic fields produce?
Any alternating magnetic field will induce an electric field, which in turn produces a current in a conducting medium. The human body is conducting and will therefore have a current induced in it – albeit, usually, a very small one. As shown on the right the current circulates round the body.
In power-frequency calculations, it is common to assume the human body has a radius of 0.2 m and a conductivity of 0.2 S m-1. Using this model, a magnetic field of 160 microteslas (µT) induces a peripheral current density of 1 mA m-2. More accurate numerical calculations can be done which take account of the actual shape of the body and the varying conductivities of different tissues.
What currents do electric fields produce?
Alternating electric fields also induce currents in the body. As shown on the right, for a vertical field, they run up and down the body. The calculation has to take account of the perturbation to the field caused by the body itself. For a typical person standing in a vertical field, a current of 1 mA through the body is induced by 70 kV m-1; more on numerical calculations.
Effects of induced currents on the body
Within the body, currents induced by fields have the same range of effects as currents injected via electrodes, e.g. in an electric shock. But these effects depend entirely on the size of the current. Thus current densities of about 0.1 A m-2 can stimulate excitable tissue and current densities above about 1 A m-2 can cause ventricular fibrillation, as well as producing heating. However these current densities correspond to fields far larger than are ever encountered at 50 Hz.
At lower fields a range of possible effects have been reported. The established effect observed in humans at the lowest magnetic field is the magnetophosphene effect, where a flickering sensation is produced in peripheral vision by 50 Hz magnetic fields above about 10 mT (i.e. 10,000 µT). Magnetophosphenes are probably caused by induced current densities in the retina; the threshold at 20 Hz (the most sensitive frequency) is about 20 mA m-2.
Microshocks are a related but separate phenomenon, caused not by a continuous current but by a one-off discharge.
What is a safe level of induced current?
Exposure guidelines are usually designed to prevent all effects of induced currents, on the basis that any effect in the brain or nervous system is potentially harmful. For example, the ICNIRP exposure guidelines currently recommend that people at work should not be exposed to current densities in the head, neck and trunk of greater than 10 mA m-2 (the "basic restriction") with a lower limit of 2 mA m-2 for the general population which may include people who are more sensitive because of medical conditions.

AP CM Gives Green Signal To Set Up Tram Trains in VisakhapatnamSaina Enters Malaysia Master QuarterfinalsMakar Sankranti 2020: Everything You Need To KnowChiru And Ram Charan Finally To Act In The Same Movie together
In a move, aimed at restoring and developing lakes in the Hyderabad metropolitan region, the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC) under the supervision of irrigation department had decided to take up the development of 19 lakes in the city. For this, the government had released Rs. 280 crores.
But in a span of one year, it saw only 30 per cent of the work had been done and the contractors failed to continue the works in lieu of their pending bills amounting to Rs.10 crores. The agencies which have taken up the restoration and development of the lake claimed that they have started silt removal from the lakes, for which Corporation has not paid the bills. Meanwhile, the 19 lakes which were left half-way are now turning into dumping yards for the locals. Hafizpet's Kaidammakunta is one of the finest examples of this.
Lack of coordination among the departments…
In an aim to restore and develop 19 lakes in the first phase under Mission Kakatiya scheme, the GHMC called tenders and handed over contract to different agencies. Then the irrigation department was asked to supervise the works. It drew criticism over the restoration works as there was no coordination between Municipal Administration and irrigation departments.
As per the argument of the irrigation department, the restoration and conservation of all 19 lakes should be given to them directly and transfer the same immediately by Municipal Administration to Irrigation Department. The higher officials of the Irrigation Department also wrote a letter to Minister for Municipal Administration in this regard.
Kaiydammakunta as dumping yard:
Kaidammakunta lake in Hafizpet has been turning into a dumping yard as it is filled with construction waste and most of the garbage generated on a daily basis is disposed of in the lake. the GHMC officials converted the buffer zone of the lake into dumping yard and disposing of the waste. Some private persons trying to take the land into their hands. The locals expressed discontent over the officials not taking action against the complaints being filed by them. The Irrigation and revenue officials of Serilingampally have failed to take any action against such illegal activities.
Adding to the vows of lakes which are turning into dumping yards, some outsiders have arranged cell towers and some others have laid private electric polls without the knowledge of the electricity department (TSSPDCL). Particularly, adjacent to the compound wall of Aparna County Gated Community, some people have laid electric polls, which are posing a threat to the residents.

Shared Ownership is a scheme which enables you to start out on the property ladder if you can't quite afford the mortgage on 100% of a home, or the mortgage deposit.
Once you have purchased your initial share, your lease will outline your options to increase your equity in the property. It will usually allow you to do this in increments of 25%. Your lease will also outline whether there is a maximum percentage that you can purchase. For example, some rural areas will have restrictions where only 80% of the property can be purchased for example, to ensure that properties always remain affordable in that area.
If you currently own one of our shared ownership properties and want to enquire about the possibility of increasing your equity (the process termed 'staircasing'), please complete the Further Options Form and email to: THG.sales@togetherhousing.co.uk. Once received, someone in our Sales Team will contact you to discuss this further.
Alternatively, if you currently own a shared ownership property with us and would like to enquire about selling, please complete the Shared Ownership Resale Enquiry Form (Part A) and email to: THG.sales@togetherhousing.co.uk. Once received, someone in our Sales Team will contact you to discuss this further.
Under a shared ownership lease, the Leaseholder buys a 'share' of the property and pays rent on the remaining share of the property (which remains in the ownership of the Landlord).
The Leaseholder can buy further shares in the property (up to the Maximum Percentage in Protected Areas) at the market value of those shares at the time of purchase. Buying further shares is referred to as 'staircasing'. As the Leaseholder buys further shares, the rent will be reduced proportionately to reflect the fact that the Landlord's interest in the property has reduced. If you would like to enquire about purchasing further shares in your property, please contact the Sales Team.
Although initially the property is not owned outright, the Leaseholder does have full repair responsibilities within the flat and generally the Landlord will have repair and maintenance responsibilities for any communal areas and for the structure of the building as outlined within the lease. The leaseholder's contribution towards these costs (as outlined in their lease) is then recovered within the Service Charges.
The leaseholder is not permitted to sub-let the property until they have staircased to 100% ownership of the property.
Although initially the property is not owned outright, the Leaseholder does have the normal responsibilities of a full owner. This means, for example, that the Leaseholder will be obliged to pay 100% of the outgoings relating to the property and to keep the property in good and substantial repair and condition.
Leases under the 'Leasehold Scheme for the Elderly' scheme are offered as shared ownership but have age restrictions outlined in the lease to ensure that older people have the opportunity to buy properties in the area at an affordable price.
The Leaseholder can buy further shares in the property at the market value of those shares at the time of purchase. Buying further shares is referred to as 'staircasing'. As the Leaseholder buys further shares, the rent will be reduced proportionately to reflect the fact that the Landlord's interest in the property has reduced. These properties are often capped at 75% as the maximum percentage that the Leaseholder can purchase (please refer to the lease restrictions as these can vary), with no rent payable on the remaining 25% that the landlord owns. This restriction is in place to ensure that this housing type remains affordable to people of this age group. If you would like to enquire about purchasing further shares in your property, please contact the Sales Team.
The lease for this property type will stipulate that the landlord must provide a warden call monitoring service throughout the term of the lease. The warden call service is a monitoring system in your home connected to your landline telephone which connects to an agency if the button on the system or the pendant is pressed. This is provided to ensure that older leaseholders are able to reach assistance in emergency situations. The service is provided by the landlord with the costs recovered through your service charges. It is important that leaseholders keep their records up to date with your landlord so that we can ensure that the monitoring agencies have your current medical and next of kin details to assist as best they can in an emergency.
Please click here to download the Personal Information Form, once complete email it to THG.leasehold@togetherhousing.co.uk.
Please note that the warden call system remains within the property's ownership, so if you sell the property, the system must remain in the property for the next owner.
Although initially the property may not be owned outright, the Leaseholder does have full repair responsibilities within the flat and generally the Landlord will have repair and maintenance responsibilities for any communal areas and for the structure of the building as outlined within the lease.

2018 NFL Draft: Is Calvin Ridley the Undisputed Top Wide Receiver?
Positives: Ridley is a route technician that utilizes his speed to keep defensive backs on their heels and then sinks his hips and explodes from his breaks to create separation. He is smooth, explosive, and naturally tracks the football without wasting movement. Ridley displays strong hands at the catch point and the ability to catch the ball away from his body. Works back to the ball aggressively to prevent ball hawking defenders from having a chance. Displays excellent body control to adjust to the ball. Plays with sideline awareness and demonstrates ability to drop feet on boundary catches. Hyper aware of defenders around him in space. After the catch Ridley fights for extra yards often using head fakes and his short area quickness to get a DB to cross his feet before leaving him in the dust as he cuts up field. When researching Ridley, I came across an article about how the Alabama defense used to taunt Lane Kiffin about not being able to get a first down in practice and then he would dial up a nine route to Ridley to shut them up as Ridley waltzed into the end zone. Also competed in track in high school.
Negatives: Limited opportunities to showcase his ability due to coming from a run heavy offense. Gets muscled around by more physical defenders at the line of scrimmage if he can't get a free release. Doesn't win his blocks due to smaller frame which needs to improve. A lot of his catches came on bubble screens and catch and run type plays where his speed and quickness got the yardage for him. Has some issues with focus drops. Needs to secure the ball before worrying about running after the catch. Has only put on 12 pounds since leaving high school, so he struggles to add weight. At 190 pounds he will be pushed around by larger NFL defensive backs.
John has been an avid football fan for as long as he can remember. John graduated from Buffalo State College with a Bachelors in Social Studies Education 7-12 and is now Assistant Video Coordinator at Buffalo State. He realized that the key to a happy life is to do what you love and make the most money you can doing it. Since he eats, sleeps and breathes football he will be pursuing a career in football with aspirations of one day working in the NFL.

Q: SDL_Mixer error "Mixer not built with ... support" I am trying to play music in the background of a game I'm working on. I'm using SDL2 and SDL-mixer for the first time. I compiled them myself and put the files at the root of my program folder (for portability purposes).
Now when I run the game, no sound is playing and Mix_GetError() returns this error:
"Mixer not built with MP3 support"

I'm trying to play a MP3 file, but I get the same error when I try to initialize with OGG and other formats.
Here's the function, if it's at all relevant.
int     play_sound(void)
{
    int         mp3;
    Mix_Music   *music;

    mp3 = MIX_INIT_MP3;
    music = NULL;
    if (mp3 != Mix_Init(mp3))
        return (put_error(Mix_GetError()));
    if (Mix_OpenAudio(22050, MIX_DEFAULT_FORMAT, 2, 4096) == -1)
        return (-1);
    music = Mix_LoadMUS("data/music.mp3");
    Mix_PlayMusic(music, -1);
    return (0);
}

I haven't found much on that particular issue, but I think the problem comes from me compiling SDL2 and SDL-mixer from sources. I must've forgot something, but I don't really know...
I'm on OSX by the way (and not really used to it yet).
Thanks everyone for the help!
edit/ I have not tried with a WAV file.

This is a lovingly crafted amalgamation of loads of tracks that would have been played in Indie clubs across the UK from roughly 1989 to about 1995 - from the tail end of C86 indie pop, via grunge and US alternative scene to the shore's of Britpop (but stopping just before it all goes off a cliff). It throws in some historical punk, synthpop and some dance tracks that were considered 'acceptable' in Indie clubs. All comments greatfully received.

Today we are visiting a typical shingle style cottage on Nantucket. Full of light and colours, and details in every room which give it an overall nautical feeling.
White painted Adirondack chairs in the wide front porch which was added to the house.
A whale carving that once hung on the outside of a 'Sconset house dominates the living room with its whitewashed walls. Antique chestnut floors run throughout the house.
Windsor style chairs surround a reproduction lace-maker's table in the dining room.
The master bedroom's open bookshelves hold an array of Nantucket baskets, some of which the homeowner made.
Olive green subway tiles, twin sinks, mirrors and light fixtures in the master bathroom.
The wife's office area is part of the bedroom suite.
Wow! Gorgeous! The wraparound window seats in the living room is perfection. good find!
Ok this is my favourite ever house you have posted, well a close first to the one with red cane dining chairs & the gorgeous cluttered kitchen. I must go back through a find that house again. I was an all time favourite on your blog.
I'm totally smitten...Nantucket is one of my favorite places and the charm and character of this house has me sold!!
love the color of those drapes in the living room!
Great American home! One of the loveliest ever. You give us great variety and it's appreciated very much.
Love this house, the colors, the view and that deck is fabulous,so relaxing and inviting.
Any idea where the chandelier above the dining table can be purchased?
they might have a contact address where you could inquire about the chandelier. Hope you find what you are looking for!
Pam I was about to write a comment asking about the chandelier. any luck finding out where its from?

Ralf Ziervogel's apartment, which curiously doubles as his studio though absent of nearly all traces, is awash with blinding early Saturday afternoon sunlight. Sheer curtains gently beat against the sliding kitchen window, which slightly ajar, hikes up its skirt to the nearly vacant Strausberger Platz below. The front door has been left ajar (presumably for me) and I tip toe into the spartan apartment to find Ziervogel positioned in silence at the kitchen table, his cigarette smoke ebbing and flowing past his face cascading out and over the railing. His barebones apartment is a picture of the black-and-white minimalism that takes him only seconds to cite as his unwavering source of inspiration. The space is seemingly devoid of any personal ornament save for some rolls of white paper resting on a Mies-style ottoman in the center of the foyer. A German artist born in 1975 and a student of Lothar Baumgarten's at the The Universität der Künste in Berlin, Ziervogel made himself known for obsessively elaborate and meticulously detailed panoramic ink drawings depicting a merge of character and mechanism—entwined, rhizomatic and sadistic orgies.
These large immersive panels provoke a dance between curiosity and horror, both enthralling and repelling viewers simultaneously. As we discuss his earlier works particularly those included in the catalog Every Adidas Has Its Story. Published by Walter Konig, the catalog depicts dozens of singular tormented figures caught in their own particular prescribed brand of torture.
Each individual page a small format drawing, presented alongside a blank black page, which lends to the hopelessness of the moment that came before it, priming you for the shock of the coming snapshot. But Ziervogel is keen on explaining that although seemingly caught in this never-ending cliché—the subject of the artist does not exert himself to clarify—he is done with these character sketches. He repositions himself on his chair, juts forward and eases back numerous times as he struggles to explain that he's "pretty much done with it".
Instead, he offers up a work in progress that is already laid out in the room adjacent. He leads me through the doorway and pointing at the work explains, "I mean it's totally fucking boring," he says shifting his weight between his feet and staring down. "No really," he assures me as I pick my head up to shoot him a sideways glance. This work in progress is more reminiscent of works like A+B+Z (infinite+infinite), 2009, where reduction becomes so condensed and overt that a code put forward by the artist is gradually reduced to illegibility. Here, instead, the line drawing originates at a single red node at the border to the paper and expands unsteadily outwards, threatening the plane.
Despite the abrupt dialogue he employs when discussing his work and counter-intuitive to the visceral content of his drawings, Ziervogel is actually an artist obsessed with the properties and merits of sequence. The violent gesture of putting such horrifically carnal scenes on paper seems of no significance to the artist, who instead insists on the importance of the procedure that's involved in its creation. While viewers approach his immense drawings with a bird's-eye-view sense of scale and perspective, the creative process employs precisely the opposite methodology. Unfurling only small sections of his expansive paper rolls at a time, he works almost as if transcribing notes. He becomes completely removed from his ability to take in the piece in its entirety, as conventional wisdom would expect for crafting such a sprawling scene. The unanticipated realization upon learning this then is that a painfully exacting chronological factor is equally important in comprehending his work as is the virulently gory content depicted. Or, if you ask Ziervogel directly, the process is just another cliché.
Even Ralf himself seems slightly amused by the inextricable role he plays within his own system of symbol assignation and he performances the role of the artist steeped in complexities all too well—a choreographed power-play led with a smile.

Author J.K. Rowling backtracks after calling out UK terror attack headline
9:50am Jun 20, 2017
J.K. Rowling has deleted a post on Twitter after she slammed the way British media was covering the latest terror attack. (AAP)
Author J.K. Rowling has taken to social media to condemn the British media's response to the latest terror attack in London.
The famous writer, who often voices her political opinions on Twitter, criticised the Daily Mail for describing the man who ploughed a vehicle through a crowd of Muslims yesterday as a "white van driver".
"The Mail has misspelled 'terrorist' as 'white van driver," she wrote.
Father-of-four Darren Osborne has been identified as the suspect. (Facebook)
Rowling has since deleted the Tweet, replacing it with a series of posts explaining her statement.
"I deleted my tweet about the Mail not calling the #FinsburyPark attacker a terrorist because many rightly pointed out that the headline was written before charges had been brought against him," she said.
"I was angry at what I saw as victim blaming in their immediate coverage."
She also acknowledged that it would not be good process for media to "rush to judgment without knowing the facts".
The Daily Mail's headline has since been updated and now label's the attacker as a "terror suspect".
As the story broke and developed yesterday Rowling kept up a stream of commentary focussed on discussing radicalisation
In one post she said people need to discuss "how the #FinsburyPark terrorist was radicalised" alongside a photo of Nigel Farage next to a billboard which read "The EU has failed us" over a picture of hundreds of displaced refugees.

I started She Is Not Invisible with great trepidation. Before this, I'd never read a blind character who is believable, or painless to read about. So, I was pleased to see that Marcus Sedgwick went for a vastly different approach. Although I don't necessarily identify with Laureth, even though she is also blind, I can see how other blind readers would. I know for a fact that the author did extensive research before writing the book, including spending a lot of time with blind students.
A number of things did bother me about Laureth's character, however. The biggest is that she's surprisingly dependent. She still holds her kid brother's hand for him to guide her, for example, and she seems unable to walk unaided. In one scene, Laureth is in an airport and someone has just called her forward. The following happens.
Personally, this felt unrealistic. Laureth knew she was first in the queue and could hear the voice of the person at the desk. Even without the use of a cane, there isn't really a reason why walking a few paces should be challenging. I don't feel like this behaviour is representative of most blind teenagers. Laureth is sixteen and has been blind from birth, which is why I found this particularly hard to believe. Still, as people reach independence at very different stages, it is possible.
Despite that, I enjoyed the story a lot. Laureth's father is a famous writer who has gone missing; she believes he may be in danger, starting a chain of events including a journey from London to New York. Laureth has an engaging voice and the characters are lively, making me want to keep reading. I also loved the idea of coincidence, which was one of the best themes in the book. Throughout, we see snippets of Laureth's father's notes, which hint at something powerful. However, in the end it didn't deliver. Without spoiling it, I'll just say I found it anticlimactic and a total disappointment considering I'd enjoyed the book up until that point. Whether I identified with Laureth as a blind person or not, the story was engaging and extremely entertaining (if somewhat unbelievable), making that ending a big letdown.
If you're interested in disabled characters in lit, this book is worth a read. I'm glad I read the book despite my criticism of the ending and Laureth's lack of independence, because it's still one of the less cringey portrayals of a blind character.
I applaud Sedgwick for all the research he's done—he clearly made more effort than most to portray a blind protagonist, such as by slipping in small details about technology that blind people use. He especially focuses on the iPhone, even going as far as to describe specific gestures that blind people use with VoiceOver.
I am interested in the group of people he interviewed. I know Sedgwick spent a lot of time at a school for the blind, yet I don't know whether he interviewed students in a mainstream environment. This is something to consider when thinking about Laureth's character. Most blind students in mainstream schools would not back away from using a cane—especially students like Laureth, who have no useful vision—quite simply because they have to in order to navigate that such large environments. By contrast, blind schools often let students walk around without a cane since the school is so small. When I attended one, the school went as far as to discourage students from using their cane inside, though this policy may be different now.
I wonder about the group Sedgwick interviewed in particular because Laureth says she was bullied when she was in a mainstream school, and implies that this isn't an issue now she's at a school for the blind. Whilst bullying is an experience that unfortunately many young disabled people face, I felt that the book contained an anti-mainstream subtext that made me a little uncomfortable. Having said that, I'm almost certain the author did this without even knowing it. I imagine this oversight is because he might not have talked to a more varied cross-section of the blind student population, who could have shared very different experiences with him.
Although Laureth didn't represent me as a blind person, it doesn't mean she was a badly written character. As within all groups of society, there are all kinds of blind people. Just because I didn't identify with Laureth because of her helplessness doesn't mean Sedgwick has failed. In fact, I think he achieved more than many other authors. He didn't feed off tropes and stereotypes; instead, he met with many young blind people and found out about their lives. This was, in my opinion, the book's strongest feature.
I would like to thank Marcus Sedgwick for doing such wonderful research and meeting with young blind people. Is Laureth perfect? No. I would like to see a strong, more independent blind teenager in another book. However, I think a lot of authors could learn from his example by talking to the group they are going to write about.
I hope that, as this book was released by a major publisher, others will consider coming forward and embracing diversity in literature as well.
I thought Laureth's issue at the airport was trying to conceal that she was blind. She had run away from home to try and find her Dad so she was kind of in disguise as a sighted person. It was a bit odd, I agree, and once she was in New York getting out a cane would have made more sense – but maybe she was concerned that her little brother would get lost if they weren't holding hands?

Das C/N-Verhältnis beschreibt die Gewichtsanteile von Kohlenstoff (C) und Stickstoff (N) – beispielsweise in Böden oder Pflanzenteilen – und ist ein gängiger Indikator der Stickstoffverfügbarkeit für Pflanzen und Mikroorganismen.

Bedeutung
Je kleiner die Zahl, desto enger ist das C/N-Verhältnis und umso mehr Stickstoff steht zur Verfügung.

Des Weiteren kann über dieses Verhältnis ebenso der Humifizierungsgrad des organischen Materials bestimmt werden. Bei der Zersetzung wird auch CO2 freigesetzt und N zum großen Teil in die mikrobielle Biomasse eingebaut. Dadurch wird das C/N-Verhältnis enger, was wiederum für eine fortgeschrittene Humifizierung spricht. Ebenso ist je nach Humusart das C/N-Verhältnis unterschiedlich.

Auch bei der Kompostierung ist das C/N-Verhältnis der zu verrottenden Materialien wichtig, da hiervon die Aktivität der abbauenden Mikroorganismen stark abhängt. In Biogasanlagen wird der Kohlenstoff in Methan umgesetzt, so dass der Gärrest wesentlich mehr Stickstoff als das Ausgangsmaterial enthält. Dies muss bei der Kompostierung berücksichtigt werden.

Bestimmung
Das C/N-Verhältnis wird folgendermaßen bestimmt:
 die Probe wird bei 950 °C oxidiert (verbrannt) → CO2 + N2 (nach Reduktion durch Reduktionsmittel wie bspw. Kupfer oder Wolfram)
 Konditionierung (Kalibrierung) des Wärmeleitfähigkeitsdetektor (WLD) mit zwei Blindwerten und zwei Standardproben zur Bestimmung des Eichfaktors
 Messung erfolgt im WLD nach Eingabe der Einwaage und der Probennummern
 Ausgabe der Ergebnisse der C- und N-Gehalte in mg/g Ctot und Ntot
 Gegebenenfalls wird die Probe bei carbonathaltigen Proben geteilt:
 erste Messung wird im Muffelofen bei 430 °C verascht und anschließend der übriggebliebene Canorg mittels Elementaranalyse bestimmt
 zweite Messung Ctot ohne Vorbehandlung bestimmt
 Differenz Ctot − Canorg = Corg
 Umrechnung und Angabe der Ergebnisse in Corg/Ntot (in Prozent)
 Schätzwert durch Multiplikation von C mit 1,72 bei Mineralboden bzw. 2 bei organischen Auflagen ergibt ungefähren Humusgehalt im Boden

Größenangaben

 Grünabfälle zwischen 7 und 15 C/N, Moder bei 20 C/N, Rohhumus zwischen 25 und 40
 Grünland etwa 11 C/N, Acker etwa 14 C/N, Forst etwa 21 C/N
 junges Gras zwischen 10 und 15 C/N, Mais bei 55 C/N, Getreide zwischen 60 und 100 C/N
 Ulmenwald ca. 28 C/N, Lindenwald ca. 37 C/N, Buchenwald ca. 51 C/N

Anwendung

Gerade für die Landwirtschaft lassen sich über das Verhältnis von C und N aussagekräftige Schlüsse bezüglich der Erhaltung der Bodenfruchtbarkeit ziehen. So sollte z. B. ein Getreidebauer nach einer Ernte bei Belassen des kohlenstoffreichen Strohs auf dem Acker das Feld mit Stickstoff düngen bzw. Leguminosen anbauen, um das verschobene C/N-Verhältnis wieder in die Richtung zu schieben, welche die Mikrobenaktivität erhöht.

Android :: How To Close Toast When Application Is Closed / Hidden?
I'm writing a little app that uses GPS coordinates and I have a toast that pops up and displays my current GPS coordinates (and updates them as they change).It works fine but when I close the app the toast remains and covers whatever I do on the homescreen (and continues to update the GPS coordinates).How do I get it to cancel when I close/hide the application?
Several commands - 'send text to', 'send mail to', 'note to self' and 'go to' - are missing. They are not parsed, and they do not appear in the Help list when voice search is launched.
I noticed that if I just speak a web search, it launches the HTC browser, whereas Dolphin is my dafault browser.
I'm currently writing an application for the Android platform that requires a mounted SD card (or ExternalStorage). I know that it might not be the best way to require something like that, but the application will work with quite a lot of data, and I don't even want to think about storing that on the device storage.Anyway, to ensure that the application wont run without the external storage, I do a quick check in the activities onCreate method. If the card is not mounted, I want to display an error message and then quit the application.When I run the application, and the exception gets raised (I raise it manually to check if everything works), the error message is displayed correctly. However when I press the button, the application closes and I get an Android error, that the application was closed unexpectedly (and I should force exit).I read some topics before on closing an application, and I know that it maybe shouldn't happen like that. But how should I instead prevent the application from continuing to run? How do you close the application correctly when an error occurs?

Michael Kintner from 360 Heros on the SyFy Network stopped by the 3D Systems booth at CES last month to demonstrate how he used the 3DTouch printer to make his own creation. He created what he calls a 360 Heroes rig that allows him to attach video cameras all around the 3D printed rig. This then permits them to record 360 degrees of video using GoPro video cameras. When on a bicycle, this 3D printed object with the video cameras attached allows him to see a 360 by 180 degree view of his surroundings. Once the GoPro cameras are in the shape of a cube, they are turned on by a remote camera system simultaneously and are able to capture a unique 3D video. Watch the video above to see this amazing invention in action!


To close out what has been a difficult, unprecedented, sometimes other-worldly week here in the United States, we learned yesterday that the legendary singer/songwriter/poet/novelist Leonard Cohen died at the age of 82.
In today's episode I talk to Stephen Wells (2nd from left, above) of the band Birthday Club. We talk about Stephen's transition from his old band Featherface, moving back home to Houston and the overall music scene there, and so much more. Enjoy.
In today's I talk to singer/songwriter Julia Nunes. We talk about her latest album, Some Feelings, which has just been re-recorded as a special live-to-tape acoustic version and how it felt to revisit those songs a year later. We also talk about Julia's own excellent podcast, That Was Us, and why and how it got started.
In this episode I talk to Zack Jones (center/seated above) of folk/indie/Americana outfit Gravel Kings. We talk about his upcoming EP, Lure, out September 9th, how it differs from their previous full-length record, and the new makeup of the band. We also talk about Zack's Florida roots and how the music he and his bandmates grew up with shaped their current sound.

Australian Minjee Lee birdied the final hole to win the LPGA's Volvik Championship by one shot and celebrate her 22nd birthday in style and just one week before the US Women's Open.
Lee, who took a two-shot lead into the final round, carded a four-under-par 68 to finish at 16-under for her 4th LPGA tour win. It was the Australian's fourth career victory to date.
"I've been playing pretty solid the whole year, and it's just nice to have a win," said Lee.
"It's is going to be a totally different week at the US Open, so I'll just try my best and I know I'm hitting it pretty solid and putting it solid, so I think we'll have a great week," said Lee.

Lee took a two-stroke lead into the final round but by the 15th found herself tied with South Korea's In-Kyung Kim and needed a birdie to win on 18. After a good drive, her second shot came closer to trouble, yet Lee retained her composure to secure the victory.
"I almost clipped the tree,'" Lee said. "I overcut it a little bit, but it finished out in a good position."
Lee's shot came to rest just to the right of the green, and from there, it was a simple chip and putt for the birdie that gave her a one-stroke win.
Lee, who won the 2012 US Girls Championship and the 2013 Australian Women's Amateur, had three LPGA wins at the age of 20 but had gone 0-for-her-last-38 LPGA starts since winning the 2016 Blue Bay Championship.
Since turning pro in 2015, Lee has amassed US$3,691,690 in earnings on the LPGA Tour which includes 31 career top-10′s. Sunday's win sees Lee climb to 8th on the LPGA Rolex Ranking.
Of the other Aussies in the field, Queenslander Sarah Jane Smith closed with a 73 to finish in a tie for 32nd at 6-under, while Perth's Hannah Green closed with a 74 to finish tie for 63rd at even par.

Allografts can reduce operating time and the need to damage another tissue site, but they bring problems with immune rejection and limited availability.
Our goal is to develop acellular xenogeneic tendon scaffolds for ACL replacement, providing an off-the shelf product to match surgical and patient needs.
The porcine superflexor tendon was identified as having the appropriate structure and properties for developing a decellularised class III medical device for use in ACL reconstruction. A bioprocess for removing the living cells from the porcine superflexor tendon was developed. This was evaluated over a six month period in sheep, where it showed good functional performance and there was evidence of regeneration.
The know-how from this research was transferred to Tissue Regenix Group Plc who began a clinical trial of OrthoPure XT, a decellularised porcine tendon implant, in 2015 and they remain on track to gain CE marking in Europe.
Our research has continued to examine the effects of variables in the decellularisation process on the biomechanical properties of the resulting scaffolds. This has included looking at the effects of different methods for reducing fat content and bioburden during the bioprocess. Sterilisation with gamma ray irradiation was also found to have some effect on the biomechanical properties of the acellular tendons, but they still retained sufficient strength and flexibility to be used as an ACL replacement. We are also continuing to analyse the cellular mechanisms of regeneration and integration after a graft has been implanted in a joint.
There is still research to be done to determine how we can better match grafts to patients. The ACL can vary greatly between a young female runner, for example, and a young male rugby player. We will explore how varying the age of the pigs the donor tissue is taken from and the bioprocess used to create the acellular implants can better tune ACL replacements to the patient's body.

A Negro and an Ofay by Danny Gardner
Crime Fiction, Latest Books
by G. Robert Frazier
Danny Gardner first made a name for himself as a stand-up comedian on HBO's Def Comedy Jam. So, what's he doing scribing dark, gritty tales of crime in 1950s Chicago? Turns out the author of A NEGRO AND AN OFAY has also toiled in scriptwriting, acting, and directing—a real Renaissance Man of the literary arts.
"When you take them separately, it seems like a lot," he says. "But be it stand-up, or screenwriting, or acting, it all comes from my deep, spiritual love for words. First, comedy and acting gave me a career and, eventually, a small place in pop-culture. Now that I'm a published novelist, it's the ultimate expression of that love. I'm always going to write, be it the next Elliot Caprice novel, or just doing improv on stage for ten minutes. That's who I am. That's how I love myself the most."
In addition to his comedy bits, Gardner is a frequent reader at "Noir at the Bar" events nationwide, and blogs regularly at 7 Criminal Minds.
Fortunately, the transition from the stage to the keyboard wasn't hard.
"Once I gave myself a chance, I realized my talent was suited for long-form writing," Gardner says. "I've found the proper outlet for my creative desires. I could finally stop cramming all the world building and multiple points of view into screenplays and comedy bits."
In this interview with The Big Thrill, Gardner shares details about A NEGRO AND AN OFAY, its genesis, and his story of success.
Tell me about the title of the novel and what readers can expect to see in your book.
Readers will walk in the shoes of a man who is both black and white, representing the Janus of American racial identity. During his search for A NEGRO AND AN OFAY, Elliot finds himself. Perhaps the reader will find a bit of themselves.
So who is Elliot Caprice? How did he manifest in your mind and novel? What drives him?
Elliot is someone I conjured from the genetic memory of folks in my bloodline. He sounds like my mother, acts like my father, and sometimes resembles myself. In the first book, he is driven by anger, although he learns this isn't sustainable and eventually finds a better way to face the world.
Is there some of you in your lead character? In what way?
My sense of indignation and my quiet fury at society's ills feel like Elliot. My desire for inner peace feels like him as well. And I've been in a fight or two in my life.
How and why did you decide to set this story in the 1950s?
As a lifelong hardboiled fan, it's never been lost on me that the genre's classic period is also an era of abject racism. How can I write a black gumshoe and avoid it? I found it better to embrace it and use it to give the work more heft and relevance.
What were the challenges of setting the story in that time period? What research did you have to do to capture that setting in your writing?
Readers are familiar with New York and Los Angeles, but what most folks know about Chicago is Al Capone, Michael Jordan, and Barack Obama. I used figures and events from Chicago's true crime history intersected with the dawning of the Civil Rights Movement to build Elliot's world. That took serious research.
What was your hardest scene to write? In what way?
The violent scene in the bowling alley where Elliot secures his first major clue. To this day, there is racial hostility in Chicago on par with the segregated South of the 60s. I worried it'd seem fantastical to a post-racial audience.
Tell me about the genesis of this book. This was previously self-published but has since been revised and expanded, correct?
The small press that gave me my original deal shuttered just a month before my publication date. Shortly thereafter, I found a wonderful agent in Liz Kracht from Kimberly Cameron and Associates and, after the query process, we decided that Down & Out Books represented the best chance to get it out in the world in its unexpurgated form. I worked with Liz on expanding the material to draw out more of the social aspects of the plot. Then my publisher Eric Campbell put me through the paces. It's the version I can finally be most proud to represent.
Since you have experience in film, is there a script version of A NEGRO AND AN OFAY in the works? Will we see Elliott Caprice again?
Well, it's broken down into what we call a show bible because drawing from my background, that's my writing process. Right now, I'm halfway done with the next book in the series, so Elliot hops in his Rocket 88 and rides again. If you're asking me: will we see him on the screen—well, that's the fantasy of most of us writers, isn't it? It's funny how, in their review, Publishers Weekly calls the book "an energetic if episodic saga," which may seem a bit like a slight, but to me, that feels right. They also mentioned seeing Danny Glover as one of the characters, which is bizarre, as that's how I've always imagined him. It's beginning to feel like fate.
What formal training do you have as a writer? In other words, how did you learn your craft?
I have no formal training outside of being an entertainer since I was 17 years old and growing up across the alley from Carter G. Woodson Public Library in Chicago. I attended college for about a month before I did stand-up for the first time. Then I followed that path, and I'm glad I did. I will say I'm fortunate to keep company with highly educated people. Professors and MFAs and whatnot. They're my beta readers, and whoa, they don't play. I believe in education. Perhaps I'll go back and actually get one.
From his beginnings as a young stand-up comedian (Def Comedy Jam All-Stars vol. 12), Danny Gardner has enjoyed careers as an actor, director, and screenwriter. He is a recent Pushcart Prize nominee for his creative non-fiction piece Forever. In an Instant., published by Literary Orphans Journal. His first short fiction piece, Labor Day, appeared in Beat to a Pulp, and his flash fiction has been featured in Out of the Gutter and on Noir On The Air. He is a frequent reader at Noir at the Bar events nationwide. He blogs regularly at 7 Criminal Minds. He is a proud member of the Mystery Writers of America and the International Thriller Writers.
Danny lives in Los Angeles by way of Chicago. To learn more, please visit his website.

The nice thing is that this made me read through David's full article. It's a bloody good article, and I don't see a lot I could add to it, so I'm not going to crib his article. Just go read it!
There's much less financial risk in solar and wind power projects. Credit: "Risk, innovation, electricity infrastructure and construction cost overruns: Testing six hypotheses," Sovacool et al.
The paper that chart came from analyzed 401 electricity projects in 57 countries. …But, hey, now I'm getting into the underlying details. Just go check out David's article, or, if you really want to dig deep, jump into the paper linked above and the second one from Benjamin Sovacool on this topic.
For a little additional context, however, I'm now inclined to list several of the key advantages of solar and wind power. Take a look, and throw more in the comments if I'm missing any big ones.
They don't destroy our climate (which we sort of need to survive).
They don't make our air and water deadly.
They use a lot less of our precious water.
They create a lot of domestic and local jobs.
If there's a massive disaster, some solar panels or wind turbines simply fall down, rather than destroying an ecosystem and killing a lot of people.
They're often cheaper (wind and solar now).
They make our grid more secure.
They offer essentially limitless supply of "fuel" at no cost.
They bring much less financial risk since they are less prone to cost overruns.
The list just keeps growing….

Q: How to find and remove optgroup and option in select? I've this select structure:
<select id="select-service" class="required span4" multiple="">
        <optgroup label="Capelli">
              <option selected="false" value="14">Colore capelli</option
        </optgroup>
        <optgroup label="Nessuna categoria">
              <option selected="false" value="13">Taglio capelli</option>
              <option selected="false" value="15">Mesh</option>
        </optgroup>
</select>

Now my goal is remove all option in select, so I've made this code:
$('#select-service')
  .find('option')
  .remove()
  .end();

but the problem's that this code remove only the option not the optgroup, how I can remove in one step option and optgroup?

A: You could simply pass two, comma-separated, selectors to the find() method:
$('#select-service').find('optgroup, option').remove();

You could also just remove all children elements for the same result:
$('#select-service').children().remove();
// or:
$('#select-service > *').remove();

The most concise approach would be to just remove the element using the .empty() method:
$('#select-service').empty();

A: The simplest way
$('#select-service optgroup').remove()

Since optgroup is the parent of option it will remove it as well.

A: Like this:
$('#select-service')
.find('optgroup')
.remove();

This will not only remove your optgroup, but all contents within it, meaning your option will also be removed.
