One of three Iowa teens convicted in a carjacking was sentenced to two 25 year in prison sentences.
Updated: 5:16 PM CDT Oct 30, 2014
WEBVTT KCCI 8 News ..."> A Des Moines teenager is sentenced for nearly beating a man to death! 16 year old Leshaun Murray was convicted of robbery and conspiracy in the carjacking of Mike Wasike... he suffered permanent brain damage in the attack. KCCI's Shaina Humphries is LIVE outside the courthouse with that! Leshaun Murray must serve two consecutive 25- year sentences with a mandatory minimum on one of them. That means he will serve no less than 17 and a half years in prison... and could serve up to the full 50 years. Which is essentially what the prosecution asked for, who described Murray as a gang member since the age of 12, with a long and troubled history, and the ringleader... In the brutal carjacking of mike Wasike. The defense, described a troubled teen with a diminished mental capacity, which the judge DID take into consideration... But that was not enough for a lenient sentence. Murray himself did have a few words to say. he apologized to Wasike's family, before saying he never had a father either, though he admitted he can't truly know what they've been through. The testimony from Wasike's wife and daughter was intense, each of them looked Murray right in the eye as they spoke, and Murray even shed a few tears as they explained how he shattered their dreams and lives, and how he took away everything their family has worked so hard for, after moving to the United states from Kenya. <"YOU DID NOT HURT MIKE, YOU KILLED MIKE. YOU HAVE MIKE'S BLOOD ON YOUR HANDS. AND IT WILL FOLLOW YOU WHEREVER YOU GO."> She said she hoped he would be away for s long time and ....no doubt will be ... But as everyone in the courtroom pointed out today... None of this can change anything for the all the family members involved. Just a very emotional, very sad day on all sides. Live in Des Moines, Shaina Humphries, KCCI 8 News, Iowa's News Leader.


It's no secret that you can earn money with your blog and lots of newbies and long-standing bloggers are making money with their blogging. What they earn can vary from just a few pennies to a lot of serious pounds. There are also numerous ways to earn money from a blog from selling a digital product to affiliate marketing. The trick is working with ways that work for your blog. Here are a few ideas that you can earn money with your blog that I can think of. There will be more I am sure that I have missed.
This one is probably the easiest to set up and have running on your blog in minutes. That said it doesn't mean you will be earning in minutes too, though. Ad Networks are places like Google Adsense or Media.Net. You sign up and sign in and get the code for your headers, sidebars, footer etc. The code enables third party advertisements to be shown where you have put the code. Normally you get paid per thousand impressions or an amount per click.
A bit like ad advertising but instead of being paid per click or impression the blogger gets paid per lead or per sale of what they are promoting. You can sign up sometimes at each company or you can sign up for sites like Affiliate Window who handle a lot of companies. Once accepted ( each company has their own rules for accepting ) you get a code which you add to your site in text or picture form. Then when someone reads your post and clicks the link you have your affiliate code in and purchases something, the blogger gets a percentage of the sale.
Important Note – when you have affiliate links in a post you must, by law, tell the reader that the links are affiliate links.
Direct advertising is where the blogger is in direct communication with a brand and has been paid directly by the brand or company to place adverts on their blog. This does give the blogger more control than Ad Networks ads as they can choose what they want to advertise whereas in Ad Networks the blogger doesn't have so much of a choice what's being advertised.
This is how I normally earn my money in blogging. It's basically a post was written by you or supplied by the advertiser with a link or two within the post to the advertiser's site. Prices can vary from £20 to hundreds per post. Some advertisers will run a series of posts too. You can pick up sponsored post opportunities from places like Linqia or from PR's contacting you through your site.
Important Note – Sponsored posts must be disclosed as a sponsored post so that the reader knows that when it reads the post it was paid for.
If you offer a service or a product then your blog is an excellent way to sell your own stuff. Things that work really well are services like coaching, writing, graphic design, virtual assistant, and e-books.


Moon Duo was formed by Ripley Johnson of Wooden Shjips and Sanae Yamada in San Francisco, California, United States in 2009.

Names of the Philippines
For a description of the island state, see Philippines.
The nation's Coat of Arms showing its official name in Filipino, one of its official languages.
This article contains special characters. Without proper rendering support, you may see question marks, boxes, or other symbols.
The name Philippines (Filipino: Pilipinas [pɪlɪˈpinɐs]; Spanish: Filipinas) derives from that of the 16th-century Spanish king Philip II, and is a truncated form of Philippine Islands. During the expedition of Ruy López de Villalobos to the region, the Spanish sailor Bernardo de la Torre bestowed the name Las Islas Filipinas on the islands of Leyte and Samar, in honor of the then Prince of Asturias (heir to the Spanish throne).[1][2] Despite the existence of other names, Filipinas ("Philippines") was eventually adopted as the name of the entire archipelago.
The official name has, however, changed throughout the course of the Philippines' history. During the Philippine Revolution, the state officially called itself República Filipina, now referred to as the First Philippine Republic. From the period of the Spanish–American War and the Philippine–American War until the Commonwealth period, United States colonial authorities referred to the Philippines as the Philippine Islands, a direct translation of the original Spanish. It was during the American Period that the name Philippines began to appear, a name that was officially adopted.[3]

Historical names[edit]
The Philippines was named in the late 1500s after Philip, Prince of Asturias (1527–1598), later Philip II of Spain and other territories (1556–1598).
In addition to the Philippines, the islands have historically had numerous other names.
Ma-i. According to the Zhao Rugua's (趙汝适) book Zhu Fan Zhi (诸蕃志) written around the 13th century during the Song Dynasty, there was a group of islands found in southern South China Sea called Ma-i (麻逸, Pinyin: Máyì). The islands groups were later invaded and renamed and identified by the Spanish to be the island of Mindoro.[4] This was further proved by Ferdinand Blumentritt in his 1882 book, Versuch einer Ethnographie der Philippinen (An Attempt to the Study of Ethnography of the Philippines) that Ma-i was the Chinese local name of present-day Mindoro.[5] On the other hand, historians claimed that Ma-i was not an island, but all the south of South Sea islands groups and Manila itself,[6] which was known to be an overseas Chinese settlement which was in constant contact with the Chinese mainland as early as the 9th century AD.[7]
Ma-i consists of the Sānzhōu (三洲, "Three islands") group of islands: Kia-ma-yen (卡拉棉, Calamian), Bālāwàng (巴拉望, Palawan) and Pa-ki-nung (布桑加, Busuanga).[8]
Aside from Sānzhōu, Ma-i also consists of the islands of Pai-p'u-yen (巴布延, Babuyan), P'u-li-lu (波利略, Polillo), Lim-kia-tung (林加延, Lingayen), Liu-sung (呂宋, Luzon) and Li-ban (盧邦, Lubang).[9] It was said that these islands had contacts with Chinese traders from Canton (Guangdong) as early as 982 AD.[5][6]
Liusung was the name given by the Chinese to the present-day island of Luzon. It originated from the Tagalog word lusong, a wooden mortar that is used to pound rice. When the Spanish produced maps of the Philippines during the early 17th century, they called the island Luçonia which was later respelled as Luzonia, then Luzon.[10]
Las islas de San Lázaro (St. Lazarus' Islands). Named by Ferdinand Magellan in 1521 when he reached the islands of Homonhon in Samar (now Eastern Samar) on the feast day of Saint Lazarus of Bethany.[4]
Las islas de Poniente (Islands to the West). Another name from Ferdinand Magellan in 1521 when he learned that the Las islas de San Lázaro also included Cebu and Leyte islands.[11] However, various sources claimed that Magellan was not the one who renamed the area, but his chroniclers instead. The name came from the fact that the islands were reached from Spain en route approaching the left part of the globe.[4] Conversely, the Portuguese called the archipelago Ilhas do oriente (Islands to the East) because they approached the islands from the east of Portugal in the late 1540s.[12]
The Portuguese referred the whole island of Luzon as ilhas Luções, or Luzones Islands.[12]
Mindanao was formerly called ilhas de Liquíos Celebes because of the existence of Celebes Sea south of Mindanao.[12]
Las islas Felipinas (Philippine Islands/Islands belonging to Philip). Named by Ruy López de Villalobos in 1543 to Samar and Leyte, honoring the Prince of Asturias, the then Philip II of Spain.[13][14]
Caesarea Caroli was the name given by Villalobos to the island of Mindanao when he reached the sea near it. This was named after Charles V of the Holy Roman Empire (and I of Spain).[15][16][17]
The southern island of Sarangani was renamed by Villalobos as Antonia, in honor of Antonio de Mendoza y Pacheco, the Viceroy of New Spain who commissioned Villalobos expedition to the Philippines.[14]
Villalobos also named the littoral zone between the islands of Samar and Leyte as Tendaya.[18]
Las islas Filipinas, or simply Filipinas (Philippines). Vernacular corruption of Las islas Felipenas; irrevocably became the archipelago's name.[4]
Pearl of the Orient/Pearl of the Orient Seas (Spanish: Perla de oriente/Perla del mar de oriente) is the sobriquet of the Philippines. The term originated from the idea of Spanish Jesuit missionary Fr. Juan J. Delgado in 1751.[19] In his last poem Mi último adiós, Dr. José Rizal referred the country with this name.[20] In the 1960 revision of Lupang Hinirang, the Philippine national anthem, the Tagalog version of this phrase was included as the translation from the original Spanish.[21]
Mi último adiós, original Spanish (1896, first stanza)[20]
English translation[22]
Adios, Patria adorada, region del sol querida,
Perla del Mar de Oriente, nuestro perdido Eden!
A darte voy alegre la triste mustia vida,
Y fuera más brillante más fresca, más florida,
Tambien por tí la diera, la diera por tu bien.
Farewell, my adored Land, region of the sun caressed,
Pearl of the Orient Sea, our Eden lost,
With gladness I give you my Life, sad and repressed;
And were it more brilliant, more fresh and at its best,
I would still give it to you for your welfare at most.
"Lupang Hinirang", official Filipino lyrics
(1958, rev. 1960s, first stanza)[21]
Original Spanish lyrics[23]
Bayang magiliw,
Alab ng puso,
Sa Dibdib mo'y buhay.
Tierra adorada,
hija del sol de Oriente,
su fuego ardiente
en ti latiendo está.
The Philippine Islands. This was the anglicized form of the original Spanish name, used under direct American rule and the succeeding Commonwealth Era.[24]
Disputed[edit]
Maniolas. According to Fr. Francisco Colin in 1663, a Jesuit cleric and an early historian of the Philippines, Maniolas was the name used by Claudius Ptolemy to refer to the group of islands south of China (i.e. Luzon).[24][25] Colin quoted Ptolemy's writings speaking about the Maniolas islands, which is probably Manila. This theory was further supported by José Rizal and Pedro A. Paterno. Rizal also said that the country was recorded to Ptolemy's maps when a sailor named Hippalus told him the existence of "beautiful islands" in southeastern Far East.[12][26] However, Trinidad Pardo de Tavera rejected this notion on his 1910 book, Notas para una cartografia de Filipinas (Notes for the Philippine Cartography).[27]
Baroussai. Along with Maniolas is the Baroussai which was also quoted from Ptolemy. Barrousai is believed to be the Visayas with Mindanao, thus, composing majority of the now Philippine archipelago.[28][29] Some scholars however have identified Baroussai with Barus in Sumatra.[30][31]
Ophir (Hebrew: אוֹפִיר) is a region of islands mentioned in the Bible, most famous for its wealth. Accounts mention that King Solomon received the riches of the region every three years. At the emergence of the hydrography of Spanish colonies in Asia in the early 17th century, Dominican Gregorio García wrote that Ophir was indeed located in the Moluccas and the Philippines.[32] In 1609, Juan de Pineda wrote a diverse collection of literature relating Biblical accounts of Solomon, Ophir and the islands.[32] Former Prime Minister Pedro A. Paterno said in one of his works on conjectural anthropology that Ophir is the Philippines because the scented wood Solomon received from Ophir also exists in the Islands.[33] This notion was however, later dismissed by modern historians as merely alluding and comparing the Philippines' position to the Spanish economy with that of Ophir to Solomon's kingdom—the sudden discovery and colonisation of the Islands bringing wealth and prosperity to the realm.[34]
Tawalisi, was an ancient kingdom in Southeast Asia reached by explorer Ibn Battuta. He reached the kingdom when he left Sumatra and headed towards China. According to the historical accounts of the explorer, he met Urduja, a legendary warrior princess from Pangasinan. However, according to William Henry Scott, Tawilisi and its warrior-princess Urduja are "fabulous, fairy-tale, fiction".[35]
Proposed names[edit]
Haring Bayang Katagalugan (Sovereign Tagalog Nation). Andrés Bonifacio's suggested name for the Filipino nation, intended to be governed by the 1896–1897 Republika ng Katagalugan (Tagalog Republic), although unrecognized by non-Tagalog Filipinos. The name drew flak because of connotations of regionalism. A historian claimed that Bonifacio's usage of "Katagalugan" was not meant to demean other ethnic groups as the word itself meant "people of the river", from the word "taga-ilog", which supposed to represent the ocean-faring ancestors of all Philippine ethnic groups.[36] This was later used by Macario Sakay for his 1902–1906 government that was suppressed by the Americans.[37][38]
Kapatiran ("Brotherhood"), or its semi-equivalent Katipunan ("Assembly"/"Gathering").[39]
Luzviminda. A portmanteau of the first syllables of the country's three major island groups: Luzon; Visayas; and Mindanao. The term has sometimes been interchanged with Luzvimindas, due to the territorial claim of the country on eastern Sabah in Borneo.
Mahárlika (Sanskrit: mahardhikka (महर्द्धिक), "freeman"[40]). In Pre-Hispanic Philippines, the mahárlika was the common Tagalog term for freedmen, not for the royalty.[40] The maharlika were the largest sector of society, and included warriors, artisans, artists, and others.[41] Unlike the rulers, maharlika did not participate in politics.[42] In 1978, then-president and dictator Ferdinand Marcos supported a House Bill mandating the country's renaming to Mahárlika under military rule.[43] Marcos claimed that Mahárlika was the name of the guerilla force he allegedly led during World War II. This was later proven as a Marcosian hallucination and fabrication, as testified by an Army investigation which "found no foundation" for the late dictator's claims.[44] Eddie Ilarde, who filed the bill, wrongfully[45] stated that Maharlika connoted royalty and wrongfully translated the term as "nobly created".[45] In the book, "Vocabulario de la lengua tagala", the term translates into "alipin na itinuring na malaya" or "a slave that was treated as free".[46] Historians noted that in some accounts, the term means "big phallus" or "large male genitalia".[47][45] The bill did not pass since the term was seen by numerous ethnic groups as "imperial in nature".[39] The proposal was revived by populist president Rodrigo Duterte in February 2019,[48] but the name was dropped a month later.[49] The name change is still supported by the government, although a new name has yet to be determined.[49]
Rizalia. Named after Filipino patriot José Rizal,[50] in a similar fashion to Bolivia being named after Simón Bolivar.[39]
República Rizalina ("Rizaline Republic"). While exiled in Japan, former revolutionary general Artemio Ricarte proposed the name and had already drafted a constitution for this attempt at a revolutionary government. The term has been pushed by many pro-Rizal Filipinos, however, the term itself is criticized by many as Rizal was not in favor of Philippine independence during the Philippine revolution against Spain as he believed that the Philippines was "not yet ready" to be separated from "mother Spain".[51] However, historians agree through surfaced historical documents that Rizal "believed in the supreme right of revolution" but "did not think it timely in 1896, and considered the people and the country unprepared for it."[52]
Basis for name-change[edit]
Since the official naming of the country as Philippines under American colonial rule, and even earlier as Filipinas (or similar names) under Spanish colonial rule, the primary reason for the country's name-change has always been "to break away from colonialism".[53] A holistically government-backed name has yet to be determined,[54] although a pan-Malay word reflecting the nation's island identity has been proposed as more appropriate, or one related to the archipelago's pre-Hispanic excellence in sailing and boat-building.[55]
In other languages[edit]
The obverse of a 1944 one centavo coin. "Filipinas" is printed on the lower ring.
The 1987 constitution provides that Filipino and English be official languages of the Philippines. The constitution does not contain a provision specifically designating an official name for the country; however, "Republic of the Philippines" is used consistently throughout its provisions (in English). Article XIV, section 8 of the constitution also mandates that the constitution be also promulgated in Filipino but no such official Filipino version exists. "Republika ng Pilipinas" is the de facto name of the country used in Filipino. When standing alone in English, the country's name is always preceded by the article the.[56][57][58] However, the definite article ang does not precede the name in Filipino contexts.
The country has throughout its history been known as Filipinas. In the 1930s, the scholar Lope K. Santos introduced the abakada alphabet for writing Tagalog which no longer used the letter F as this sound was absent and was usually pronounced by speakers of several Philippine languages as "P". The abakada alphabet also subsequently spread to other Philippine languages (which had been using spelling systems based on the Spanish abecedario). Thus, the form Pilipinas propagated and came into general use.[59] The Commission on the Filipino Language and National Artist, Virgilio S. Almario urges the usage of Filipinas as the country's official name to reflect its origin and history,[60] and to be inclusive of all languages in the country of which phonologies contain /f/, represented by the grapheme F in the present-day Philippine alphabet.[61] In many Philippine languages such as Tagalog, Pilipinas is used; while some other languages, including Ilocano and Chavacano, use Filipinas.
At international meetings, only the English name usually appears to identify the Philippines (e.g., when there are meetings in the United Nations or the Association of Southeast Asian Nations) in this setting. This is also the tradition even if the meeting is held within the Philippines. The country's name in other languages is more often than not based on either Filipinas or Philippines, both ultimately rooted in the Latin Philippinae.

The best time to buy a nursing bra is during the 3rd trimester, usually 2-4 weeks before the due date. Read our tips for choosing the correct nursing bra.
The best time to buy a nursing bra is during the 3rd trimester, usually 2-4 weeks defore the due date. Your bra cup size has probably increased by now and you can try on a nursing bra.
If you are shopping for nursing bras during the last month of pregnancy, you can buy a bra that is the currently correct size and take the bra into use immediately. Even if the bra might be too small when the milk rises, don't worry, you can probably use them in a few months, when your milk-flow has regulated, or at the end of breastfeeding.
When breast swell and change size rapidly post birth you will probably need even bigger cup size. The change in bra size varies from person to person. Some won't see much of a change, while for others the cup size can grow by 4-5 cups. The usual breast growth is 1-3 cup sizes.
What kind of nursing bra should I buy? How many bras should I buy for breastfeeding?
For the first months after child birth we suggest that you wear only wireless nursing bra as the wires can press down on the sore breasts. There is also a risk that the wires press on the milk glands and cause complications such as mastitis. When the milk production has settled you can start using nursing and non-wired maternity bras or flexible wires. You can do just fine with everyday bras but breastfeeding is much easier with nursing bras which have drop cups for fast access to breasts. Usually you should at least buy 2-3 nursing bras: one you can wear and 2-3 bras drying after a wash.
Do I need sleeping bra?
Most people don't prefer a night-time bra, but if your breast are sore you may feel more comfortable if they are supported. You can use your nursing tops or regular nursing bras also during night, but only if the are wirefree and not too tight.
Because nursing and maternity bras get milk stains easy we recommend that you wash your bras daily. Bra should be washed as soon as possible after use so that the milk stains don't set in. Wireless bras can be washed in a washing machine in a washing bag. We recommend handwash for a wired bras.
If you need any help with choosing a size or nursing bra model, don´t hesitate to contact our customer service!

Freezer to Crockpot Sausage and Peppers!
This may not be as kid friendly as some of the other meals unless of course, your kids love spicy (ours do!). This is a super easy freezer meal and healthy. The most time consuming part is chopping all the peppers and onions, but when you are making several freezer meals, just chop all your vegetables at one. Freezer meals are just so handy for busy families. No more trying to figure out what to fix for dinner, because the meals are already prepared. Takes away all the fuss and hassle.
This meal was super easy to make and so often the Eckrich Sausage is on sale for under $1 so this is a very inexpensive meal. For all freezer meals make sure to label your freezer bag with the name of the recipe, cooking instructions, and prep date. Freezer meals can be frozen for up to 3 months.
We also like to fill tortillas with the sausage and peppers – it is YUMMY!!
We also love to fill tortillas with the sausage and peppers!
Have you ever frozen a meal for your crockpot before? Please share your thoughtsin a comment below!
NEW Make Ahead Freezer Meals – Meal Prepping!!
We have added a few more Make Ahead Freezer Meals for all you busy families. Almost all meals serve 6-8 so if you have a smaller family just divide them appropriately.
Always mark your bags with the important information. Such as, which recipe it is, prep date, and cooking instructions.
Organize your freezer so you have room for your freezer meals to lay flat or stand together.
Make sure to take your meals out the night before to thaw so they are ready to be dumped in the crockpot the next morning.
Easy Recipe – Salad in a Jar!
With back-to-school beginning, here is a super easy lunch that you can prepare ahead of time. We are finding this is one of our kids favorite lunches now – and it's healthy (or somewhat depending on what all they put in it).
If you prepare these ahead of time, they are good for about 5 days. A few ingredients are better to put in morning of, if you are making too far in advance. We used the large mason jars as our kids are older and the smaller ones would not fill them up enough. Our daughter, Jadyn, likes to put her's in a plastic container the morning of.
Hard vegetables: Add hard vegetables including carrots, cucumbers, and green peppers, etc.
Cheese and Proteins: Cheese, tuna fish, chicken, hard boiled eggs, etc. Only do this if you are going to use the salad within 2 days you can put these items in otherwise wait and add these ingredents the morning off and add to the top of the jar.
Softer Vegetables: Tomatoes or if you want to add fruits like strawberries.
Salad Greens: Lastly, fill the rest of the jar with salad greens. We use both shredded lettuce as well as romaine mix. You can also firmly pack this, if you would like.
Storing the salad: Screw the lid on the jar and refrigerate for up to 5 days. Again, remember if you not using for 3 or more days, include any cheese or soft fruits and vegetables, add these to the top of the jar the morning of.
Eat: You can either shake the jar and eat the salad right out of it, or pour it in a bowl. Here is a picture of what it looks like when you pour it in a bowl. It saves time and we truly enjoy meal prepping.
Looking for a quick and delicious pork chop meal? Well here it is! This recipe has your favorite chops dancing with flavor and one the kids will love.
Prep time on this recipe is fairly quick. Just open a couple of cans , drain the mushrooms, mix them in a bowl with the dry onion soup and it's ready for the bag. Place the chops in, pour the gravy over and freeze. The gravy is fantastic on mashed potatoes and the chops are so tasty.
We love to serve these with mashed potatoes, gravy from pork chops, and a vegetable – YUMMY!!
We love to serve these with mashed potatoes, gravy from pork chops, and a vegetable - YUMMY!!
This is a delicious hearty meal that's sure to please!! Just some minor prep work with the potatoes and its ready for the bag. We love carrot and potato meals, throw in chicken and a creamy ranch sauce and it becomes something your family will ask for again and again!
This meal is fairly cheap to make and goes together so well. Adding the dry ranch dressing to the cream of chicken makes the perfect zesty gravy for this dish. Way better than anything you'll pick up at the nearest drive-thru window. Make sure to place the potatoes in the bottom so they do not turn brown/black!
Mix all ingredients in a gallon-size freezer bag (except milk).
We love to serve this with dinner rolls as that is the ONLY thing it is missing – DELICIOUS!!

Amateur Radio Works and Communications
Figure-4. Part of the Neumayer-III amateur radio station. (Image Credit: DP0GVN)
Question: The hardware in the amateur radio station in the Neumayer-III Research facility is one of the most curious subjects. First of all, can you explain the reasons for the existence of an amateur radio station in a scientific research facility?
We have a shortwave transceiver at the station as part of our communication equipment. Its main purpose is communication with other nearby Antarctic stations. So as a radio amateur, you can also use it for amateur radio in your free time.
Figure-5. Examples of QSL cards used by the Neumayer-III amateur radio station DP0VN. (Image Credit:DP0VN)
Question: What kind of amateur radio devices are deployed in the amateur station, and what antennas are used with these devices? How do the extreme cold climate, snow, and ice affect the performance of your antennas?
Shortwave transceiver with a wideband dipole, not exclusive for amateur radio usage,
QO-100 Base station, also capable of DATV transmissions,
WSPR beacon and receiver.
There is no problem with ice, as it normally gets blown away very quickly.
Question: Based on your geography and location, you are within the coverage area of the Es'hail 2/QO-100 satellite with a viewing angle of 5-10 degrees. Can you tell us about the work done with this satellite?
The main usage for the QO-100 station is school contacts. The pupils can prepare questions during the lesson and ask them via QO-100.
Question: In which bands do you communicate at your station in Antarctica? Are SSB or digital modes more advantageous for you in amateur radio activities?
My main amateur radio activities during the overwintering were digital modes on shortwave and SSB via QO-100.
Figure-6. Neumayer-III amateur radio station. (Image Credit: helmholtz.de, Marcus Heger, DL1MH)
Question: Could you share the Weak Signal Propagation Reporter Network (WSPR) study and its purpose in the air chemistry laboratory SpuSo?
The WSPR beacon is a long-term project conducted by the Technical University of Munich (TUM) and the Hochschule Bremen City University of Applied Sciences (HSB) in cooperation with the Alfred Wegener Institute Helmholtz-Zentrum für Polar- und Meeresforschung (AWI) and the German Amateur Radio Club (DARC). The project is meant to run several years to gain long-term data on radio propagation.
The WSPR transmitter is placed on the station, and the receiver is placed at the observatory for atmospheric chemistry, to have 1,5 km. distance between them.
Question: Do you have any problems communicating with the satellite phone in the Antarctic region?
Our main communication runs via a geostationary satellite link. Additionally, we are using satellite phones as backup communication without problems.
Question: With which system can you benefit from the Internet service? How do narrow band and speed usage affect your work? How do you interact with your families?
For internet and telephone communication, we are using a connection via a geostationary satellite. The connection is used for transferring science dater and also for communicating with our families.
Question: Does the facility have its own intranet system?
Yes, we are running a local network, which also includes some servers for storing and processing science data.
Question: Are there 4G and 5G mobile phone networks and local radios in Antarctica?
We have no mobile phone networks here at the station.

Question: What is your station's amateur radio call sign, and what are the most remote and exciting places you can be contacted so far?
Callsing of the station is DP0GVN. One exciting contact was the DXpedition to Svalbard in April, with them I did the farthest north-south QSO, which has been done via QO-100. I was also happy about my QSO with TC100QO, when QO-100 operation was allowed in Türkiye for one day.
Question: Can you use amateur radio systems on the International Space Station (ISS)? Have you tried to communicate with the ISS or other amateur radio satellites?
The ISS is equipped with some amateur radio communication, but I have not tried any QSOs with the ISS.
Scientific Topics
Question: Why are most research stations close to the continent's coastline?
An interesting part of antarctic stations is to cover areas that aren't covered by other stations. So it makes no sense to have ten research stations at the south pole. Additionally, the supply at the coastline can easily be handled by ship.
Question: How can you benefit from health services? Can you introduce your health facility with telemedical features?
The station has a hospital the size of five shipping containers, which includes an operating room and the doctor's office. In addition to the year-round stationed medical, we can get support from Germany via telemedicine.
Picture-8. Supporting the bottom of the hydraulic support legs with snow (Image Credit: AWI)
Question: How long does the staff at the research center change? Is there a cycle like the ISS astronaut exchange for base officers?
That depends on your work and your position. In the summer season (November till February), the scientists normally spend some weeks here at the station for their projects.
The overwintering crew spends 13 to 14 months here at the station to keep the station alive and to have a look at the long-term observatories
Question: What is the most complicated aspect of living in Antarctica, and how long does the departing crew stay?
Mostly the low temperatures make things challenging, for example, maintenance work outside when parts are covered by ice or handling small screws with thick gloves.
Figure-9. Condition of hydraulic support legs after they are supported by snow/ice layer (Image Credit : AWI)
Question: How long can you stay outdoors in suitable clothes? Are there any special hours that do not go out or are prohibited?
With suitable clothes and some food, staying outside the whole day is no problem. Only when there is a strong storm you want to avoid going out.
Question: What happens to abandoned research stations?
Abandoned stations, like the station's predecessor, "Neumayer Station-II", will be dismantled.
Figure-10. 30kW Wind Turbine (Image Credit: AWI / Thomas Steuer)
Question: From which sources do you provide your electricity generation?
Energy for the station is provided by diesel generators and a wind turbine. Most remote observatories use a combination of wind and solar power.
Figure-11. Each ice core is split into several pieces that are used for targeted analysis. (Image Credit: Jan Vincent Kleine)
Question: Are Antarctica's environmental conditions suitable for using renewable energy technologies?
It is possible to use renewable energy in Antarctica. Still, you have to verify that the hardware is capable of this harsh environment and that returning maintenance can be done by engineers at the station.
Figure-12. A photograph of the meteorological station works. (Image Credit: AWI / Thomas Steuer)
Question: What are the primary scientific researches? Is the main criterion for selecting this region for research, is its extreme environment?
There are long-term observations for atmospheric chemistry, meteorology, and geophysics located at Neumayer Station-III, which are running all year long. I think the most important benefits of this location are the distance to civilization (e.g., for atmospheric measurements) and the fact that you want to get measurements from all continents, e.g., for climate studies.
Figure-13. A part of marine research. (Image Credit. AWI)
Question: We generally hear about scientific research on geology and climate. Are there ongoing observational studies in different disciplines, such as astronomy and space?
Additionally, there are many different studies each summer season, e.g., a project named "Seals and cryobenthos at the Ekström ice-shelf," where colleagues try to look underneath the floating ice-shelf tongue using seal-bourne infrared cameras and a remotely operated vehicle (ROV).
Question: Finally, which do you think is more difficult: Living in a desert station in Africa or the poles?
I think both places have different challenges for living there all year long.
Question: How are human wastes evaluated? How are the remaining solid wastes disposed of?
Waste gets sorted, compressed, and stored in a shipping container so we can send it back for disposal.
Question: How does the compass behave in Antarctica?
Generally, the compass is also working in Antarctica. But you must consider the difference between the magnetic and the geographical pole. For our area, there is a difference of 14°.
Question: How is the storage of vegetables and fruits or other foods?
There is one big supply via ship once a year, which includes spare parts, food, and so on. There are different stockrooms for the food supply, down to -25°C, so that it keeps fresh over a long period.
Figure-14. German polar research ship Polarstern. (Image Credit AWI)
Question: How does it feel to have the nearest supermarket 3,300 kilometers away?
You don't miss the supermarket here, because you have everything you need.
Question: Do animals come near the station?
During winter, you don't see animals near the station, but in the summer season, you have birds flying around the station and sometimes also penguins passing by.
We believe that communication, which started with an amateur satellite communication, will take shape much better in the future. We know you are working in challenging conditions for humanity and science, and we touched on that in this interview.

Even though you cannot see anyone outside when you look out the window in a snowstorm or cold winter night, we want you to remember that there are friends out there somewhere whose heart is with you.
On behalf of MoEP and our readers, for your courtesy of communication, the time you spend with us and the information you share, and their support on behalf of amateur science, we would like to thank and send our greetings and best wishes from TÜRKİYE to;
Alfred Wegener Institute, Helmholtz Center for Polar and Marine Studies,
To the Neumayer Station-III crew and scientists,
To the AMSAT-DL association,
Station operators.

From Lizst to the Carmelites in Kensington: Father Hermann Cohen
Blessed Dominic Barberi, whom we celebrated earlier this week, was not the only nineteenth century missionary sent to England to help bring converts to the Church. David Oldroyd-Bolt writes in The Catholic Herald about Hermann Cohen, "Jewish child prodigy of the piano and gambling addict turned champion of the Eucharist and promoter of nocturnal Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament." He was convert to Catholicism because of the Real Presence of Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament at Benediction and Holy Mass:
It was while taking time to discern his vocation that Cohen popularised the practice of nocturnal devotions to the exposed Blessed Sacrament. Having taken advice from several priests Cohen decided to become a Discalced Carmelite. He served his novitiate at the convent of Le Broussey, near Bordeaux, receiving the habit on October 6, 1849 (the feast of the Holy Rosary) and making his religious profession on October 7, 1850.
Cohen, now Fr Augustin-Marie du Très Saint Sacrament, then spent a decade preaching around western Europe, often to crowds of thousands. Liszt and Cohen were reconciled in 1862 during a visit to Rome and remained close thereafter. At Cardinal Wiseman's request, Pope Pius IX sent Fr Cohen "to convert England, as one of my predecessors sent the monk Augustine". On October 15, 1863 he, along with several French Carmelites, moved into a house in Kensington. That year, for the first time since the Reformation, an English novice took the habit.
During the Franco-Prussian War, Fr Augustin-Marie went to Spandau prison to minister to the 5,000 French soldiers being held there. Smallpox was rife, and it was while administering Extreme Unction without a spatula to two men that he himself caught the disease. On January 19, 1871, he made his last Confession, received Holy Communion and said his last words: "Now, O my God, I place my soul into Your hands." He died peacefully the next day.
Fr Cohen's Cause for beatification was put forward on January 19, 2016 by Archbishop Jean-Pierre Ricard of Bordeaux and Bazas.
In researching this Carmelite foundation in Kensington, I realized that this was the Carmelite church we attended every day for Mass when Mark and I visited London with Monsignor William Carr from May 7 to 14, 2003, Our Lady of Mount Carmel and St. Simon Stock. What a providential coincidence:
Cardinal Wiseman asked Fr Hermann Cohen, a former professional musician, protégé of Liszt and convert from Judaism, to found a Carmelite monastery in London. In 1862, Fr Hermann came to London and temporarily based himself with the Sisters of the Assumption in Kensington Square. In 1863 he rented a large house in Kensington Church Street with extensive grounds to the south which later became the site of the church. A disused school was converted for use as a chapel. In 1864, the property was bought for £3,500. In July 1865 the construction of a permanent church began, from designs by E. W. Pugin. Built predominantly in the Early English style, the church opened on 16 July 1866. In 1875–76, the community also bought the copyhold of the remaining land along the north side of Duke's Lane for approximately £4,600 and built there the priory, from designs by Goldie, Child & Goldie (1886–89, photo top right).
During the Second World War, Pugin's church was severely damaged. A new church was built from designs by Sir Giles Scott, Son & Partners, who had been appointed in 1954.

Monsignor Carr, who concelebrated our wedding Mass on April 6, 1991, concelebrated Mass every weekday at Our Lady of Mount Carmel and St. Simon Stock, always proclaiming the Gospel. For Sunday Mass during that visit Mark and I went to the Brompton Oratory because the Oratorians would not, according to the Carmelites, allow Monsignor Carr to concelebrate Mass. He wanted to experience the choir at the Oratory and of course to revel in the connection to Cardinal Newman!

Pulse Sports caught up with the man at a recent event in Lagos where he granted an interview.
Emmanuel Amuneke was part of the golden generation of Nigerian footballers that won the 1994 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON), impressed the world at the 1994 FIFA World Cup and won the gold medal in the football event of the 1996 Olympic Games.
He later went on to sign for La Liga giants Barcelona and is until today the only Nigerian player to be on the books of the Spanish club.
Pulse Sports caught up with the man at a recent event in Lagos where he granted an interview, talking about his time at Barcelona, his experience at the 1994 FIFA World Cup and his last coaching job in Sudan.
"The guy I normally go out with most of the time was Busquet, the father of the player playing now.
"They discovered me through my playing. These big clubs don't sign any player anyhow, they take years of study.
"It is not only about the talent, it has to do with the kind of player you are. Are you a team player or an individualist? Are you hardworking?
"It was a big opportunity for most of us, something that we have dreamt of to play in the World Cup. My first World Cup experience was in 1986, Maradona in Mexico that was the awareness of most of us playing in the World Cup and since then we had dreamt of playing in the World Cup and then having the opportunity of playing in the World Cup in 1994 for me it was one of the highest things ii achieved that year.
"We thank God we were able to make statements in the World Cup not just making up the numbers. As a country, we were able to tell people that apart from individual qualities we had, we could also play as a team.
"We believed in ourselves, we came to realise that we had a good team, we were like brothers. Each time we came to the national team there was this unity, this understanding and harmony in the team and everyone realised that the only way we could achieve something is by working hard.
"It was great scoring against Bulgaria. When you score in the World Cup that is when people start to recognise and know you. The goal I scored, the goalkeeper was not expecting it. It was a cross from Finidi (George) and I had to anticipate before the defender and flew in and headed the ball."
"Because we had the opportunity again in the Olympics and we were able to manage things better than what we had done at the World Cup. We were not able to manage the game against Italy."

'Course, I couldn't help but think of mycroftb on reading this entry regarding Animal Crossing. What will I be letting myself in for.. ^_^
This could be a promising community.. scifi_fashion, dedicated as its name implies to the aesthetics and fashion of sci-fi.
Dalek passport photos.
Wow, the tablet works!
No, I don't think I'll be uploading that one at any higher resolution. ^_^;
Meanwhile, some kind soul has taken it upon themselves to be armed with the goatse photo, and a camera, to capture people's first reactions thereto.
And why doesn't FA have "rabbit" as one of the species options? Four different kinds of dragon, though..
Damage control, or an earnest desire for real change? "Conservatives call for return to core Republican principles": 'Jeff Flake, an Arizona Republican congressman who co-led the petition drive that helped oust Tom DeLay, the House majority leader, said in an interview yesterday: "We don't just need a new majority leader, we need a course correction. "A lobbyist can't be corrupt unless he has somebody to bribe, and we've created a culture that just breeds corruption," he charged.'

Huh. So Toys'R'Us is going to close down? Oh well. Nasty places. Not quite as depressing as Wal-Mart, but only through their ironic sterility.
Chumbawumba have posted a very cool mini-editorial on CD copy protection. "Well, I'm not one to believe statistics and the like, but most recent independent research clearly shows that these same people who illegally download music on P2P networks also spend more money on legal downloads (from sites like Napster, iTunes store etc..) and buying CD's than those people who don't venture into this shady world."
Further musings on the MacBook with cheese:
- there are mixed reports on battery life. I've seen one person report they've called Apple, and been told it's similar to the previous PowerBooks; another says they were told the official line is "no comment" until they're actually shipping. One person pulled out the AC adaptor at the show and saw around four hours on the menu bar battery meter, another just saw "calculating". My guess is it'll wind up around the five hour mark on light duty.
- the card slot isn't PC Card or PCMCIA. Whilst ExpressCard is a compatible protocol, the standard comes in different physical widths - 34mm is the narrower, and thinner than a PC Card. Apparently quite fast, though. [Edit: You can find the ExpressCard overview here. Unlike its PC Card/CardBus/PCMCIA predecessors, it isn't backwards compatible - even aside from the different width of the narrower variant - as it's based on a combination of PCIe and USB2]
- no reports yet on what the boot process is like internally. As I recall, Apple said it wasn't going to be Open Firmware - perhaps Intel's new baby? Apple has no BIOS baggage, after all. [Edit: looks like it's Intel's EFI after all]
- and as one Slashdot commenter noted: "Be bloody, bold, and resolute! Laugh to scorn the power of man, for none of woman born shall harm MacBook." ^_^

Apparently, the arctic hare can reach around 64mph (103kph). ^_^;
From Grzimek ed.2 vol.16 p.484, "One of the only known instances in which a lagomorph survives by eating meat is found in an isolated population of the collared pika (O. collaris). These pikas live on nunataks, or small islands of rock in the middle of a sea of ice, protruding from the Seward Glacier in the Yukon, the world's largest non-polar ice field. It is remarkable to find pikas in this environment, and even more so that they can survive on the few plants that also hang on in this bleak place. These pikas eat the brains from birds that die while flying overhead and fortuitously fall on the nunataks giving them their slim margin for survival."
As they say - it's a living. Just not for the birds.
While I was disappointed to see Charles Kennedy edged out of the (British) Liberal Democrats leadership, perhaps Simon Hughes would be an effective replacement, "putting an emphasis on radicalism, civil liberties, public services and the environment."
There seems to be some confusion in the past few days regarding the R1 release of the recent season of Doctor Who - it may have been postponed in the US, but might still be on course for Feb 14 in Canada. (Of course, there's always the R2 release, out now)
Ah. There appears to be a reason for this. ^_^ Outpost Gallifrey's news page notes "the US-based Sci-Fi Channel, owned by NBC Universal, has secured a deal to broadcast the 13 episodes in America starting in March, beginning on what Outpost Gallifrey believes is likely March 17 (the week after the season finales of the popular "Battlestar Galactica" and two "Stargate" shows), at 9:00pm Friday nights, and it will likely conclude at some point in mid-to-late June in time for Sci-Fi's summer premieres of those shows", and "In addition, BBC Video has moved the US release date of the DVD from February 2006 to July 4, 2006 to capitalize on the exposure from the TV broadcast." [Edit: it appears the Doctor Who webmaster at the BBC has heard the news..]
And here's (1.1MB) why it's not a good idea to look like a seal in front of a polar bear.

The stepper is a unique method for medics to quickly move about in the far-fetched extremity of the hospital, be this within internal paved platforms or in the open air paced roadway within the hospital compound.
The stepping phenomenon has caught on with medics since the foot movements involved are the same as with the cross-trainer.
Since the hospital complexes are expanded in modern global hospitals, expedience in medics arrival is vital and this means is much more efficent and time saving.
They are relatively inexpensive for hospitals, encouraging their staff to use these free-of charge to the benefit of their medical community.
Also this secures "green cards" from the authorities.
These steppers go with either with racing tyres or wide tyres.

Then we have the steps with small wheels (three variants), usually dual at the rear whereby it stands vertical on its own; has brakes and is real sturdy and will even allow transport of material if desired.

Q: how to marshal to an Array of objects - C# I am kind of confused by Marshal and C#.    I don't understand how to make a code change to marshal to an Array of Class.  This is what my current code looks like.
IntPtr pBarcodesRaw = IntPtr.Zero;
retVal = LeadTools13Imports.L_BarCodeRead( handle, null, // null to scan whole image                                                 (uint)barcodeTypes,
                         LeadTools13Imports.BARCODE_SCANLINES_PER_PIXELS,LeadTools13Imports.BARCODE_MARKERS,                                                                        1, //this parameter control if read the first bar code or all the bar codes.   0= first and 1 =                            all.
_barcodeReaderParams,IntPtr.Zero,
null,
out pBarcodesRaw );

Lead tools is a third party library.
This use to only read the first bar code and stop which was marshalling to a single instance of BarCodeData.    Now I have to read all the bar codes on a page.
if LeadTools13Imports.SUCCESS == retVal )
{  // extract the barcode read
    barcodeData = (LeadTools13Imports.BARCODEDATA)Marshal.PtrToStructure(
                        pBarcodesRaw,
                        typeof( LeadTools13Imports.BARCODEDATA )
    );
}

The bar code data class looks like this:
[StructLayout(LayoutKind.Sequential)]
internal class BARCODEDATA
{
    internal Int32  nGroup = 0; // used only for CodeOne and PDF417

    internal UInt32 ulType = 0;

    internal Int32  nUnits = 0;

    internal RECT   rcBarLocation = new RECT();

    internal Int32  nSizeofBarCodeData = 0;

    [MarshalAs( UnmanagedType.LPStr )]
    internal String pszBarCodeData = "";

    internal Int32  nIndexDuplicate = 0; // for reading only

    internal Int32  nTotalCount = 0; // for reading only

    internal Int32  nDupCount = 0; // for reading only
}

I added this class
[StructLayout(LayoutKind.Sequential)]
internal class BarCodeArray
{
    [MarshalAs(UnmanagedType.ByValArray , ArraySubType = UnmanagedType.Struct , SizeConst = 2)]

    public BARCODEDATA[] _barcodes;
}

I am having a hard time understanding how do i change this line of code
barcodeData = (LeadTools13Imports.BARCODEDATA)Marshal.PtrToStructure(
    pBarcodesRaw,
    typeof( LeadTools13Imports.BARCODEDATA ) );

to marshal to an array of BARCODEDATA[]


Ambati Rayudu takes a dig on chief selector MSK Prasad after his exclusion from World Cup squad.
Vijay Shankar was picked ahead of Ambati Rayudu in the World Cup squad. Ambati Rayudu struggled against Australia in both away and home ODI series. On the other hand, Vijay Shankar was made a good impression in the recently concluded series against New Zealand and Australia.
Indian team seemed to have been grooming Ambati Rayudu to play at no.4 position in the World Cup. While his exclusion from the team came as a surprise for few, India's chief selector MSK Prasad explained the decision. Prasad pointed out that Rayudu got his fair share of chances after 2017 Champions Trophy but he failed to utilize them.
It is clear that selectors thought that Vijay Shankar's all-round ability makes him more useful for the team. Ambati Rayudu does not seem to have taken this decision well as he tweeted to take a dig on the decision. He wrote that he had ordered a set of 3D glasses to watch the World Cup. This tweet seems to be a reply to the comment made by Prasad who pointed out that Shankar is a three-dimensional cricketer.
Every cricketer dreams of representing their country in the World Cup. So it is not surprising that Rayudu is hurt by his exclusion.
The Indian team play their first game in the World Cup against South Africa on June 5th.


Sheryl Stringer has been fantastic to work with. She had great insight and ideas when I was scratching my head wondering what style to go with.
She is incredibly easy going so the whole process feels simple and do-able.
I had some 2nd thoughts on two of our purchased front porch gas lights. She immediately said, "Let's make this right, I want you to love them" & offered to change them out for a preferred style. Wow!

Evan Peters Makes For The Perfect Andy Warhol With His Take On 'American Horror Story: Cult'
Entertainment Writer
We now have our first look at Evan Peters in one of his famous cult get-ups that we'll soon see in an episode of American Horror Story: Cult. While the season is beginning to make sense plot-wise, the show can be a little heavy handed with some of the political commentary. Where he does hit a home run is with the horror portion of the show, with this season taking the sadistic nature of the series to different levels.
It also seems like it will do justice to the past versions of famous cult leaders played by Peters, serving as a reminder of the Hotel season's serial killer dinner party — also featuring Peters deep in character. While the actor will also take on Charles Manson, David Koresh, and Jim Jones during the future episode, the one that stood out was Andy Warhol and the "cult" that surrounded him at The Factory. Tim Stack with Entertainment Weekly shared Peters as the legendary artist on Twitter and the results are pretty stunning:

HomeNewsLocal marijuana retailer sees lasting impact on cannaversary
Local marijuana retailer sees lasting impact on cannaversary
By Tre Lopushinsky
Thursday, Oct. 17th, 2019
Local recreational cannabis retailer has high hopes for recreational cannabis after one year of legalization. (File Photo)
One year after recreational weed became legal in Canada, a local retailer is optimistic the cannabis market will have a positive impact on Canada's economy in the future.
"Maybe a lot of people don't agree with cannabis but the one nice thing is that at least it is a safe product; it hasn't been tainted with anything that's going to harm anybody. The government is collecting tax dollars from it which is giving them an influx of money to stabilize the economy as well," says House of Hybrids owner Phil Zweirs
House of Hybrids was the second store to open on the Alberta side of Lloydminster. The store opened on November 24, 2018, just under a month after Plant Life opened its doors. For a short amount of time, they were the only two stores sharing the market in the Border City as a shortage of product caused a freeze on licenses.
Zweirs believes the stigma surrounding recreational cannabis isn't gone but is slowly dissipating.
"People are a lot more open to it. I would say if you were to look back at this in five years, I don't think it's going to be any different then drinking alcoholic beverages."
Currently, Lloydminster has five cannabis retailers on the Alberta side, with two shops on the Saskatchewan side after winning the permit lottery.
Zweirs says business started off with a bang but found it tampered off once other stores opened. He believes due to product and customer base, stores might not last if they aren't owned by largely funded companies.
"To be completely honest, you would see some stores closing within a year if they weren't tied into three to five years leases in some of the spots that they're in."
Percent of provincial populations that have used recreational cannabis in the last three months. (©Statistics Canada.)
According to the Statistics Canada Q2 National Cannabis Survey, 20 per cent of Albertan residents over the age of 15 admit to using cannabis at least once over the last three months. The report put Alberta ahead of more than half the country, while Saskatchewan was closer to the bottom with 15 per cent.
One year after cannabis was legalized across the country, it was announced three new products have been green-lit including regulated cannabis edibles. Residents won't see the products on the shelves till around mid-December.


How to change a burnt out license plate light bulb in the rear bumper cover of a 7th generation 2011-2014 Dodge Charger.
This automotive maintenance tutorial was specifically written to assist owners of the seventh generation (2011, 2012, 2013, 2014 & possibly also the revised 2015) Dodge Charger sedan in changing a burnt out license plate light bulb in the rear bumper cover.
A replacement license plate light bulb is part number 168, which is available from various manufacturers such as Sylvania, GE, Eiko and PIAA.
You could also use a brighter compatible 168 LED bulb.
The only tool needed to remove the housing and replace the bulb is a Phillips head screwdriver.
Remove the two screws holding the license plate light bulb housing in place by turning them counterclockwise with the Phillips head screwdriver.
Carefully pull the bulb housing down out of the bumper cover.
Rotate the grey plastic bulb socket 1/4 turn counterclockwise before pulling it straight out of the housing.
If necessary, you may also use any other miniature wedge base bulbs such as the # 158 (dimmer), W5W, 2825, 194 (brighter) or a compatible LED unit.
Carefully re-insert the bulb housing in to the opening in the bumper cover.
Line up the screw holes in the bulb housing with their corresponding holes in the bumper cover.
Spin in the two screws a turn or two by hand.
Tighten the two screws with the Phillips head screwdriver until they are snug.
Try to avoid over tightening the two screws to prevent from stripping the threads or cracking the plastic housing.
Test the new license plate light bulb by turning on the headlights or by pressing the "Unlock" button on the key fob.


This experiment explains how a transformer works.
There are two circuits, the primary one and the secondary one. The primary circuit consists of a source of electricity (in the video is the battery) and a coil.
The secondary circuit consists of a coil and an instrument that measures electric current (microammeter). The coils are positioned close to one another.
As the primary circuit closes, electricity "flows" through the primary coil and induces (creates) electric current in secondary coil. Therefore the microammeter gives an indication.
If we put a metallic object in the core (centre) of both coils the induced current has a greater intensity.
Would you like to find out why is that?

Another excellent illustration! You're a master and Your drawings get more and more refined. Applause!
Another fascinating illustration , the thing I like about your work is the content, there is so much going on that you have to stay a while to take it all in.
I looked at this yesterday and came back to it today and discovered things I did not see yesterday.
Beautiful painting, as always. So much lovely detail, and really well drawn.
Fantastic. You still, as we say, 'threw in the kitchen sink' (meaning lots of stuff in it), but it reads beautifully supported by the limited colors and values. The washes support that really nice drawing. Well done. It's still blissfully colorful, but it's controlled so the eye can rove around easily and to the delight of the little details, the angle of the stacked dishes and all that. Very groovy.
Arjen, your style really draws me in. I love roaming round the picture and particularly enjoy the wee mouse! What a character!

We're not going to lie. As a Kentico gold partner, we get a little giddy about new version releases. After beta testing Kentico 11 on our own site, we are pleased to report that the newest release, Kentico 11, does not disappoint. This major upgrade focuses on marketing systems, internal data structure, and building key third-party integrations. Whether you're currently on an earlier version and want to upgrade to Kentico 11, or looking to build your site on the latest version of Kentico, it's important to familiarize yourself with some of the exciting new features that Kentico 11 offers.
Kentico recognized that by advancing the email builder, built-in analytics would also have to be upgraded to allow marketers to test and retest to maximize conversion. In Kentico version 11 (EMS version), the campaign report has been expanded so administrators can analyze the overall stats in more detail, down to individual content blocks. Furthermore, administrators can click through conversion numbers to see lists of contacts, aggregated by demographics such as country, gender, age, and other key identifiers.
To understand how personas are performing, Kentico added a new reporting tab in Kentico 11 which features a visual chart that allows administrators to select and deselect personas to hone in on their results. Now administrators can see which persona is resulting in new contacts, and which is not - vital information marketers need optimize website personalization strategies.
The legislation was created and approved by the European Union (EU) to regulate data protection for all individuals in the EU. Called General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the implications are starting to feel felt by all businesses who have any connection to consumers in the EU. The law passed April 27, 2016. and had a built-in two-year transition period. As of May 25, 2018, fines will become allowed and enforceable for online presences who do not adhere to these new rules. Luckily, Kentico 11 has built in a stronger Data Flow map, allowing for user consent and right to access. Learn more about GDPR in Kentico in their handy infographic.
E-Commerce in Kentico, while robust, often needed custom programming for certain combinations. Version 11 has remedied most of that with shopping cart calculation updates. The new cart calculation engine is broken down into logical steps, automating most of the rounding and tax applications. Also added is a delayed payment capture feature - meaning that an order can still be taken and then they can apply payment through the website later through standard gateways or PayPal. This change will save on the custom code previously needed to make this functionality work.
UCommerce: Even with the native e-commerce updates, Kentico users now have the option to replace the internal e-commerce app with a third-party option from UCommerce. The benefit is that as an e-commerce-only solution, UCommerce focuses solely on making the best solutions for different e-commerce needs. Kentico joins the ranks of other .Net CMS providers like SiteCore and Umbraco in this new service offering.
Dynamics, Salesforce, and Marketo: Continuing on the path to make Kentico the CMS for all businesses with different sales and marketing solutions, they have opened up new integrations with Microsoft Dynamics 365, Salesforce, and Marketo. While businesses will likely need to customize these further to suit their needs, these out-of-the-box integrations are a nice feature for businesses needing to share data across platforms.
Azure Search: Kentico also added to the functionality of Azure Search, a search-as-a-cloud service that can handle complex queries through a website, mobile, and even enterprise programs that are connected to a server.
Kentico version 11 is a smart investment for any business looking to move to Kentico's platform or upgrade from an earlier version. Kentico continues to invest in its platform and will roll out Kentico 12 in November 2018. This release will include a widget-based visual page builder and much more.
As a Kentico Gold Partner, ZAG Interactive's team is always excited to help businesses maximize their online presence. Do you want to learn more about Kentico or upgrade your CMS? Contact us to talk more about your specific needs, or schedule a Kentico demo.
