Granite stone is a solid formation of one or many minerals available in many types that have been quarried throughout the centuries from all across the world mainly Italy, Spain, Turkey, United States, Mexico, China, Taiwan, India, Greece, Canada, France and Brazil. Due to its high durability and low maintenance, granites are ideal choices for commercial and residential floors, external paving, wall cladding, bench tops and vanities. The general term granite encompasses many varieties of stone that are light in colour eg. Beige, pink and grey and the textures can differ from fine grained to very coarse grained with crystals. The strongly coloured and textually unusual granites are generally quite old (over 1.5 billion years) and young granites greyish or pink simply reflecting the fact that the older it is the more processes that have affected it, causing it to become more unusual looking.
Granite is an indigenous rock generally formed at lower crystal levels by a number of different processes. Two of the main processes include (a) the accumulation of small amount of residual melt derived from indigenous parent material and (b) partial melting of crystal material that has been deeply buried. While there are other processes that form granites these tend to be the more localised. Most granites are never total liquids, generally containing up to about 60% crystals. Many granites tend to have the consistency of porridge for example, it is often very difficult for the melt component to effectively separate from the original source material, which is entrapped and carried with the granite magma. These tend to become the finer-grained dark inclusions and "balls that are so common in granites. Although it has often been generalised that cooling rates determine the grain size of granite there are many factors that collectively assume a greater importance.
There is commonly much confusion about granite nomenclature. For example, the term "black granite" often causes some consternation among purists, academics and those not intimately associated with the stone industry. The two terms in the strict sense, are contradictory. Granites in the broad sense are dominated mineralogically by sub equal amounts of quartz, alkali feldspar and plagioclase feldspar, which commonly collectively comprise around 90% of the rock and give them a light colour. Relatively small amounts of dark coloured biotite and/or amphibole provide additional descriptors. (eg. Biotite granite). Black granites usually contain little or no quartz, rare alkali feldspar, and typically abundant more-calcic plagioclase feldspar. Biotite and amphibole are usually present in only small to trace quantities; instead, calcic pyroxene and less commonly, Ca-poor pyroxene dominate the ferromagnesian mineral assemblage. Apart from these fundamental mineralogical differences there are many other gross differences between "true" granites and "black granite. However, in this imperfect stone trade the two varieties are acceptable worldwide under the umbrella of granite because of their indigenous mode of formation, degree of cystillinity and interlocking textures.

Where's Willie?
December 5, 2016 / cpolk99
For over 29 years, William "Willie" Thornton has strolled the halls of Jeff High, cleaning up messes along the way. However despite being at JHS for nearly three decades, Thornton hasn't been seen in months.
Willie is battling health issues, which have kept him from coming in to do the job he loves.
"I like my job and I like the people I work with," Thornton said. "It's up to the doctors on if I can return or not. I really want to come back."
The impact of his absence can be noticed around the janitorial staff, as every one of them who has worked with Thornton mentioned his dedication to the school.
"We miss Willie's leadership," said Michelle Grut, a day janitor at JHS. "He has put lots of years into this school, and we truly, truly miss him."
As for a possible return to work, Thornton (and his doctors) have until March to decide on whether he will be able to return to the janitorial staff.
"He's been an anchor for our custodial staff for years. He's a tremendous worker," said assistant principal Timothy LaGrange. "He's had some health issues, so losing him was a big blow to us during the day. I personally miss him alot, he had a great sense of humor and I just enjoyed being around him. In his situation if he came back, we want what's best for Willie."

Lotus Eletre EV: Because Every Manufacturer Needs a (Performance) SUV
Posted on November 6, 2022 by Nathaniel Lucky
The new Lotus is an SUV. Yes, it seems every non-defunct manufacturer will inevitably have its own SUV. This time around though, it's an EV, and the Eletre boasts some notable numbers.
First off, the Eletre comes in three different trims, the base, S, and R. Dual motors with equal power make up its all wheel drive, and all the trims share the same battery pack. The base and S variants has 602 horsepower and 523 lb-ft of torque, but the performance-focused R throws balance out the window by switching out the rear motor for one with 603 horses. The result? 905 HP and 726 lb-ft, paired to a two-speed gearbox. That allows the R to achieve a 0-62 mph sprint of 2.9 seconds, and a top speed of 265 km/h. The other trims do it in 4.5, with a lower top speed of 257 km/h. The WLTP measurement of range for the Eletre grants 600 kms on 20-inch wheels. Being the performance model, the R clocks in at 489 kms.
Its handling department features air suspension with adjustable ride height and adaptive dampers, with the R adding an active anti-roll system. Carbon ceramic brakes will supposedly be on the top trim. Inside, passengers are treated to a 15.1-inch infotainment system, powered by twin Qualcomm 8155 chips. There's also a 15-speaker audio system by KEF. The interior bits are made of environmentally friendly materials which were a product of recycling, and could be recycled a second time. The lidar sensors come as standard, with promise for full autonomous driving as updates are rolled out overtime. The base is priced at $84,500, the S comes in at $98,500, and $113,000 for the R.
Lotus says that, when it is perfected, the self-driving capabilities will allow for a full lap of the Nürburgring, a racetrack/public highway that has claimed the lives of many cars, and several unfortunate folks. They also claimed the R will be the quickest (dual motor) EV in the world, which we suspect is subject to change, with all the other manufacturers hopping in on the performance EV market. With the rising numbers, it's just a matter of time till power restrictions hit.

What are PCBs and What Should I Do about Them?
PCBs are hazardous materials that need to be removed safely when disturbed. Learn more about PCBs below and what should be done to avoid exposure.
PCB stands for Polychlorinated biphenyl. Before July 1978, PCBs were used frequently in fluorescent light ballasts at 50 ppm or greater in the capacitors and asphalt potting material surrounding the capacitors. It's a known carcinogen that does not exist in nature. PCBs are either oily liquids or colors, are colorless or light yellow, and have no smell or taste. They were used as coolants and lubricants prior to 1978 because don't easily burn and are good insulators. PCBs are persistent, bioaccumulative (meaning that it can be absorbed by living organisms), and toxic pollutants that are dangerous to humans and animals alike.
Where are People Being Exposed to PCBs?
What are the Risks of Exposure?
Those who have been exposed to PCBs may experience stomach, liver, or kidney damage, skin irritation, and/or thyroid gland injuries.
How Can I Make Sure There Aren't PCBs in My Property?
The best way is to call AQHI, Inc at 800-481-8080 for an expert hazardous material evaluation.

Q: Recent behavior changes in ColdFusion's RegEx engine? We run ColdFusion 2018 on a Windows 2016 server with IIS.
We rebooted the Windows server on Jan 16, 2020 as part of routine maintenance. The next day we started seeing isolated stack overflow errors when users posted long strings (~2500 chars) in form data. The reboot seems unrelated but is the only recent change in our environment. Users have successfully submitted data equal to or greater in length for a number of years.
Here's the error:
java.lang.StackOverflowError
at org.apache.oro.text.regex.Perl5Matcher.__match(Unknown Source)
at org.apache.oro.text.regex.Perl5Matcher.__match(Unknown Source)
at org.apache.oro.text.regex.Perl5Matcher.__match(Unknown Source)
[Repeats many more times....]

The error originated from the "REFindNoCase" line of the code below, which checks for malicious-looking input coming from submitted forms.
var failedTest = false;
var doZealousTesting = true;
var badTagsAndEvents = "SCRIPT|OBJECT|APPLET|EMBED|FORM|LAYER|ILAYER|FRAME|IFRAME|FRAMESET|HREF|SRC|PARAM|META|onClick|onDblClick|onKeyDown|onKeyPress|onKeyUp|onMouseDown|onMouseOut|onMouseUp|onMouseOver|onBlur|onChange|onFocus|onSelect|javascript";
var zealousRegex = "((\%3C)|<)(.)+((\%3E)|>)";
var conservativeRegex = "((\%3C)|<)(.)*(#badTagsAndEvents#)+(.)*((\%3E)|>)";
var regexTest = iif(doZealousTesting,de(zealousRegex),de(conservativeRegex));
for (key in form) {
  failedTest = (failedTest or REFindNoCase(regexTest,left(form[key],3999)) neq 0);
}

Are we missing some inherent problem with the code?
(By the way, we were able to quell the errors by setting ColdFusion's "useJavaAsRegexEngine" flag to true.)

A: The 2016 Adobe link given by @DWR (reReplaceNoCase is throwing a java.lang.StackOverflowError) offers two explanations for how regex could cause a stack overflow unexpectedly.

*

*change in jvm version (probably in conjunction w/ #2)

*-Xss property reset at too small a value

Windows, CF, and the RegEx engine don't have anything to do with the issue. Stack size is the main variable at play. The solutions given by Adobe were to "increase the value of the Xss property in jvm.config or improve your regex pattern." Our solution was to set the "useJavaAsRegexEngine" property to true. For whatever reason, the Java engine parses the regex we were using more efficiently.

The This Is Us Character You Are Based On Your Zodiac Sign
By Sezin Koehler/Jan. 11, 2022 8:16 pm EST
Astrology is about a simple twist of fate occurring the moment we are born, and our unique place in the cosmos based on where the planets and stars align in that very moment. This is why astrologers need to know your birth time to make an accurate chart since every hour of every day creates a different personality.
Time is also of the essence in Dan Fogelman's beautiful family drama "This Is Us." The intersections of Rebecca (Mandy Moore) and Jack Pearson's (Milo Ventimiglia) lives ripple out to touch many others, and especially their triplets Kate (Chrissy Metz), Randall (Sterling K. Brown), and Kevin (Justin Hartley). This is especially important as the plot of "This Is Us" reveals itself in snippets that travel back and forth through different characters' timelines over decades.
While the show is in many ways realistic in detailing the tribulations and joys of one American family, it takes some liberties in an astrological sense. After all, four members of the Pearson family were born on August 31, the Big Three in 1980 and Jack in 1944, meaning their personalities should have been a whole lot more alike than different, and in real life they all would be Virgos to boot. But as we've seen it unfold over six seasons, the main personalities are distinct entities that still correspond to the stars, even if they don't exactly match their birthdays. Here's the "This Is Us" character you are based on your zodiac sign.
Aries: Beth Pearson
Aries are determined individuals, but sometimes they have a tendency to begin projects and never finish them. However, once Aries identifies their passion and has a champion who motivates them, that Aries will, in fact, see it through to mastery. This is the case for Randall's headstrong wife Beth Pearson (Susan Kelechi Watson) and her dancing career, which had been her own personal universe and joy until her father's tragic death from lung cancer when she was a teen. As a young girl, her dad is her biggest cheerleader, but when he dies Beth's mother Carol (Phylicia Rashad) forces Beth to abandon this dream for more serious money-making careers.
Aries tend to thrive on excitement, so it's no surprise Beth does well in the corporate world, where she is often a team leader responsible for important accounts. When she was young, Beth had no choice but to comply with her mother's demands. However, in true Aries fashion, when Beth loses her high-powered executive job she was good at but never loved, she decides to see her dancing career through to whatever conclusion she could make now, becoming a dance instructor and opening her own school.
As a wife and mother, Beth is fiercely loyal and stands by her family, even when she needs to give them moments of tough love about their questionable choices, and especially when they decide not to listen to her. Aries understand independent thinking and acting like nobody else.
Taurus: Toby Damon
Like their Aries cousins, Taurus has a similar single-minded determination, but their goals are often pursued with a more methodical and organized approach that tends to have better long-term consequences. Taurus comes with a natural charm that draws people to them, even when they might not be interested at first. This is exactly the case for Toby Damon (Chris Sullivan), as he has a love-at-first-sight moment with Kate Pearson and it doesn't take him long to win her over.
With his warm sense of humor and ability to make anyone feel comfortable in his jovial presence, Toby quickly becomes Kate's rock. Toby makes Kate feel safe and loved as she processes many of her early childhood issues, in particular the death of her father. He is refreshingly honest and open, especially about his mental health struggles and how much his previous relationship wounded his self-esteem through his ex's focus on his weight.
Also in classic Taurus style, Toby's even keel goes off the rails when he starts having work troubles, especially when he loses his job and has a hard time finding a replacement offer. Taureans receive a lot of their inner security from financial and job security, so even as his home life thrives, we see Toby struggle when his career begins to fizzle. Sadly, Toby's reliance on his job prospects leads him to choose work over his family — an occasional Taurus occurrence — which spells doom for his marriage to Kate.
Gemini: Madison Simons
Gemini is a sign of duality, and one of their biggest struggles is finding a balance between their intellect and emotions, with their intellect dominating until they access a sense of inner harmony. As a result of this tension, Geminis have a great deal of energy that can make them talkative and sometimes erratic, which can end up being a self-fulfilling prophecy. For instance, a Gemini might guard their emotions to not get hurt but also often speak to others without a filter, alienating those around them.
Madison (Caitlin Thompson) has had a dramatic arc on "This Is Us." She starts as Kate's nemesis in their eating disorder support group and later becoming Kate's best friend, maid of honor, and the mother of Kate's eventual nephews, so she is a part of the Pearson family regardless of how anyone might feel about her. Geminis often harbor feelings of inadequacy that contribute to their struggle between their minds and hearts. For Madison, this aspect explodes into her life when her parents divorce and she thinks it is her fault, which is a contributing factor to her bulimia.
While her abrasive personality can grate, in the moments she quietly reveals her true, insecure, and struggling self with Kate and her ex-fiance Kevin is when we realize Madison is far more than the inappropriate blabbermouth she seems. This is Gemini duality hard at work, and it requires a lot of patience.
Cancer: Jack Pearson
Like its crab representative, Cancer is a sign often marked by self-containment. However, at the same time, Cancer has a deep yearning for a permanent home for themselves and their families. There's a deep sensitivity and intuition in Cancer that makes them great communicators, especially in romantic regards, but this is also a sign that worries a lot and can take on the personal concerns of everyone they care about, often to the detriment of their health.
For the beloved patriarch of "This Is Us," Jack Pearson, the abusive home in which he was raised becomes the anti-blueprint of how he wants his own family to be, and he is successful before his tragic and untimely death. Where Jack receives no love or compassion when he is growing up, he offers these things in spades to his wife and children, even when he's so tired he doesn't feel he has anything to give. This is a huge reason his persona looms so large over the family decades after his death.
We also see Cancer's dark side in Jack, as at first, he struggles with alcohol addiction to cope with all the emotions pent up from his terrible childhood and financial struggles. However, when he realizes he risks turning into his own awful father, Jack gets himself back on track to build one of the most beautiful families ever to grace television screens.
Leo: Rebecca Pearson
Leo is a sign that thrives in the spotlight, so being a stage performer is second nature. Even when they're not on stage, they often have an inner radiance that follows them wherever they go. Like its representative lion, Leos are born leaders and have an intense loyalty to their packs, whether chosen or blood prides, or a combination, as we see with the "This Is Us" matriarch, Rebecca Pearson.
Leos want to go their way, and Rebecca never sees herself with children — let alone triplets — when she first meets Jack. Because of this fierce Leo independence, it takes Rebecca a minute to adjust to life with children, and she struggles to bond with her adoptive son Randall. It's here we see the Leo trait of thinking they always know best emerge in Rebecca when she seeks out Randall's birth father, William (Ron Cephas Jones), for advice, keeping this fact to herself until William seeks out Randall decades later.
It takes Rebecca a long time to admit she was wrong and almost sacrifices her relationship with Randall because of it. This Leo trait is heavily ingrained and tough to overcome. So is her tendency to carp on Kate's eating habits, seemingly provoking an eating disorder through her comments about Kate's dietary choices when she's a child. As she gets older, Rebecca does eventually realize that her opinions aren't fact, and it's here that she truly begins repairing the wounded connections with her children.
Virgo: Randall Pearson
Even though the Big Three and Jack Pearson are all technically Virgos since they were born on August 31st, the only one in the group who presents a typical example of this zodiac sign is Randall "Resumes Are My Jam!" Pearson. From childhood, Randall is a meticulous student who strives for perfection in all areas, even when nobody is pressuring him for that level of excellence. He studies in advance for tests, does his homework early, and enjoys things when they are in a particular order. These are Virgo qualities that follow Randall into adulthood, including his constant worrying that has turned into a full-blown anxiety disorder by the time he's moving up the corporate ladder.
Randall sometimes manages to sublimate all this nervous energy into his daily runs. We can only imagine how much worse he'd be if he didn't take the time to get outside and work off some stress. While Virgos aren't necessarily known for their leadership skills, Randall channels his overdeveloped organizational skills into his campaign for city councilman.
However, unlike other signs when they enter politics, Virgos rely on the help of others to make decisions. Randall is no exception with his campaign manager Jae-Won Yoo (Tim Jo), who Randall entrusts with huge decisions. Still, for all his success, Randall is a worrier through and through, and this classic Virgo trait continues to get the better of him, even if it strains his family relationships.
Libra: Kate Pearson
Like their Virgo cousins, Libras need things to be just so, but their version is often more diplomatic and self-sacrificing to maintain peace and order. This can lead to a Libra tendency to swallow their own needs for others' benefit. Kate Pearson is bullied at a very young age about her weight, and in true Libra fashion, she wears baggier clothing and doesn't speak up until her parents find out on their own. Kate often also finds herself as the mediator between her brothers as she tries to help keep the peace as Randall and Kevin's wildly different personalities clash.
Libra energy can be a natural born caretaker, which vibes a lot with Cancer energy and could be why Kate and her father Jack have such a close bond. Libra is a sign that craves romantic partnership, sometimes at whatever cost necessary, which in the case of Kate Pearson leads to her first boyfriend being emotionally abusive. Sadly, Kate caves in to take the pain since it feels better than being alone.
When Kate finally finds a loving and supportive partner in Toby, she continues to challenge his feelings to make sure they are true since a Libra's insecurity is hard to shake. This is especially true after her abusive ex-boyfriend gives her that impression, seemingly confirming her worst fears about herself. Kate eventually makes peace with who she is through returning to music, and it's then that things finally start to fall in place.
Scorpio: Kevin Pearson
Scorpio is a big energy sign that's often defined by its sexual magnetism, for better or worse. Like its representative, the scorpion, Scorpios have a bite that's as bad as their metaphorical bark and their ability to hold a grudge rivals that of an Aries. Scorpios tend to be dramatic individuals with a powerful charisma that constantly draws others and attention to them. Whether through sports or his film career, Kevin Pearson is the star in whatever room he enters, and that's not always a good thing.
Once he injures his knee and can no longer play football, Kevin is the embodiment of textbook unfulfilled Scorpio rage until he discovers his knack for stage acting. While he seems dedicated to his high school sweetheart Sophie during their younger years, Kevin shows his worst side when they reconnect as adults, and Kevin realizes in that moment he doesn't want the same things Sophie wants. He then tells her in the cruelest way possible, just to make sure he'll never go down that road again, but not considering how devastating it is to her.
Alcohol does nothing to help Kevin's more harmful tendencies, and it's not until his sobriety that he finally begins to reckon with the kind of person he wants to be, and he finally reckons with the ways he has hurt others. When a Scorpio stops putting themselves first, that's when they become truly marvelous forces of nature.
Sagittarius: Miguel Rivas
Sagittarius is a sign that thrives on challenge, whether in his work or personal life, and claustrophobic energy of any kind will surely send them packing. When we first meet Jack's colleague and soon-to-become best friend Miguel Rivas (Jon Huertas), he is an up-and-comer who thrives at the construction company where Jack has a much harder time integrating. Miguel is personable and approachable, as well as direct and honest, Sagittarius traits that make him a great salesperson as well as an excellent confidant for Jack.
It's in his relationships, though, where the Sagittarius tendency toward boredom comes through, resulting in his first marriage ending abruptly in divorce. Decades later, Miguel and Rebecca reconnect long after Jack's death, and they fall in love. With Rebecca, Miguel gets all the excitement and drama his Sagittarius spirit can handle, thanks to her strong-willed personality. However, this includes all the tensions that arise between him and her triplets when Rebecca and Miguel get serious about their relationship.
Finally, Miguel can settle down and, in many ways, sublimate his desire for change in his devotion to making Rebecca happy. He also makes it his mission to win over the Big Three by using that Sagittarius hunter spirit, and eventually, he does proves himself to be a vital member of the Pearson family.
Capricorn: Deja Pearson
Represented by the steadfast goat, some of which can climb a sheer cliff wall by force of will and careful planning, Capricorns are methodical in a very different way than their Aries or Taurus cousins. When a Capricorn gets knocked down, it'll dust itself off and get right back on track when other signs might start something new altogether. Often Capricorns are shy, with a withdrawn nature that sometimes has to do with a lack of self-confidence, even though their strengths are so evident.
In the case of Deja Pearson (Lyric Ross), her lack of confidence stems from a great deal of abuse and neglect she'd survived already at such a young age. She bounces from her grandmother's house to her young mom and then through a brutal foster care system that doesn't do Deja any favors until she meets Randall and Beth Pearson, who eventually adopt her.
Even as Deja rebounds from terrible situations, like her mother giving up parental rights entirely, it still takes her a long time to find that core of safety in herself, allowing her to relax and become part of the Pearson family. Once Deja starts settling into her new routine, we see her Capricorn dedication to maintaining not just her academic work and future plans but putting loving care and attention into all her relationships while securing her own personal boundaries.
Aquarius: Nicky Pearson
Thanks to a sequence about his birth and the draft that took him into the Vietnam War, we know that Jack's younger brother Nicky Pearson (Griffin Dunne) was born at 11:58 on October 18, 1948, which technically makes him a Libra. But since "This Is Us" doesn't follow astrological personality archetypes in its storytelling, Nicky actually corresponds more accurately with an Aquarius, a go-your-own-way kind of soul. Aquarians often stand out for their eccentricities, and in this sense, Nicky is a classic example. Unfortunately, Nickey stands out so much that his abusive father often targets him for violence because of it.
Aquarians are humanists and often have a collective perspective, even at a young age, that makes them primed to be activists for social justice rather than soldiers of war. This explains an enormous tension in Nicky Pearson's personality when he is forced into battle just because he wasn't born three little minutes later to escape the draft.
Aquarians are also immensely free thinkers and independent beings, which often leads to difficulty in long-term relationships and can sometimes end with a life spent alone. When we rely on our solitude, it becomes almost impossible to even imagine sharing our space with others. This likely would have been Nicky's future had Kevin not taken it on himself to bond with Uncle Nicky and help re-socialize him with the Pearson family and beyond.
Pisces: William Hill
Often called the poet of the zodiac, Pisces is a sign marked by deep sensitivity, uncanny intuition, and boundless creativity. In the case of Randall Pearson's birth father, William, he actually is a poet and produces some beautiful works of art that Randall and his family would later cherish. However, the problem with being so sensitive and overflowing with empathy is that sometimes the realities of the world can be too much, and some might turn to unhealthy coping mechanisms to find moments of escape.
In the case of William, drug addiction tears apart his family before it's even begun. A misunderstanding separates him from both his beloved wife and treasured son, creating a rift that he is never fully able to resolve before his death. But before William dies, he leaves an indelible positive mark on Randall, and especially his daughters Tess and Annie, who love William's soft-spoken manner and storytelling abilities. William has a comforting warmth characteristic of Pisces, making him an excellent caregiver and demonstrating he would have been an amazing father had circumstances gone differently.
It's common for Pisces to absorb all the energy, good and bad, around them, which can be an overwhelming issue, as we see William struggle with. Thankfully, by the end of his time on earth, William does find peace in reuniting with his family, repairing an ancestral trauma that no longer will pass on to his grandchildren.

Uruguay and Australia Sign Work and Holiday Agreement
April 12, 2013 by Migration Angels
People from Australia and Uruguay aged between 18 and 30 can now participate in a work and holiday arrangement which came into effect at the beginning of April 2013. Up to 200 applicants will be able to take advantage of the new program each year.
Australia's minister for immigration, Brendan O'Conner commented:
The new work and holiday arrangement aims to strengthen the relationship between Australia and Uruguay and build on economic ties and links between our two countries.
This arrangement will allow university-educated Australians and Uruguayans aged between 18 and 30 to work and holiday in each others' country for up to 12 months.
This work and holiday arrangement will further enhance our cultural links between the two countries.
The program aims to encourage international relationships between participating countries and in most cases agreements are only entered where pre-existing economic ties have already been established.
The difference between the Work and Holiday program and Australia's Working Holiday Visa program is that applicant must have the support of their government, hold or be studying towards tertiary qualifications and to speak functional English.
Uruguay has become the latest country to have a reciprocal work and holiday visa arrangement with Australia, joining a number of other countries, including Argentina, Bangladesh, Chile, Indonesia, Malaysia, Papua New Guinea, Thailand, Turkey and the United States.

This winter at Copenhagen Fashion Week, we fell for the swedish brand MASKA. Not only is their quality great, but the colors and designs are on point, and their sustainable profile is strong. We are happy to introduce the brand in our store!
MASKA (means "knitted stitch" in Swedish) was founded in 2009. The idea was to start a brand that took the best parts from the hand knitting world – the quality of yarns and the elaborate structures – and make it commercially available.
Each MASKA garment is crafted from natural fibres, and only use oil-based fibres or threads to enhance the performance of a garment, never to reduce costs. Buttons and knitting yarns are always natural materials.
All knitwear yarn is spun in Europe apart from the cashmere and silk blend. All yarns and fabrics are handpicked, and all knitwear is produced in the EU following the labor laws of the European Union, apart from one style which is produced in Nepal at a Swedish-owned factory. Though outside the EU, this supports the growth of local industry. The factory is managed according to fair labour guidelines created by the international non-profit organisation Fair Wear Foundation. All woven garments are also produced within the E.U. following the labour laws of the European Union.
Not only is the choice of fibers important, but also the garment's entire lifecycle and frequency of wear and care. Selecting materials that age with grace and are long-lasting is central to the sourcing philosophy.

An insight into the simultaneous equations models
Publicizing is a significant strategy for rivalry in ventures that are exceptionally focused, for example, the cigarette business. Firms in enterprises of this sort tend not to contend by cost, however, attempt to build deals with promoting and other showcasing procedures. Since various earlier investigations have discovered little connection among promoting and tobacco utilization, it is critical to look at this writing before continuing with another experimental examination.
Monetary hypothesis gives a few bits of knowledge into how econometric investigations of tobacco publicizing ought to be led. A significant financial part of promoting is lessening negligible item. Lessening negligible item proposes that, after some point, augmentations to promoting will bring about ever littler increments to utilization. This idea is the premise of the publicizing reaction work. Promoting reaction capacities have been utilized for quite a while in brand level exploration to show the impact of publicizing at different levels on utilization.
A significant number of the ongoing publicizing presentation and review reads have controlled for other hazard factors for smoking inception. This implies the supposed causal factor of publicizing ought to be confined from other hazard factors so an authentic affiliation can be resolved. For example, the facts might prove that sixteen-year-olds who can recollect tobacco commercials are bound to smoke as twenty year-olds than sixteen-year-olds who don't recall tobacco promotions, however it doesn't follow from this that this affiliation is because of the way that they recollected tobacco ads. It likely could be that those 16-year-olds may likewise have shared some other trademark, for example, being progressively disposed to hazard taking, or performing inadequately at school, and it might be that these components - which have been avoided from most investigations as opposed to tobacco notices, are the cause(s) of resulting smoking.
The fact of the matter is that without controlling for these different elements one can never know. A considerable lot of the review examines are rendered risky by the way that they expect that the heading of impact among promoting and smoking take-up and utilization is single direction. That is, they accept that the supposedly causal bearing is from presentation to promoting. However there is next to no exact help offered for this. To be sure, significant investigations have negated it. Young people who are keen on and responsive to smoking can be expected to have a smoking inclination that would prompt their enthusiasm for and review of tobacco publicizing.
Their inclination for smoking could have been framed preceding and autonomously of any tobacco promotion. This would imply that finding a relationship between recalling tobacco ads and along these lines smoking doesn't comprise convincing proof that the previous prompts the last mentioned.
In addition, tobacco promoting introduction and review concentrates frequently depend on self-revealed information, which represents a huge issue as far as legitimacy. For instance, self-revealed information might be off base due to certain situational factors related with the social attractive quality of the conduct, for example, smoking, being contemplated. The examination writing takes note of that self-reports are regularly tormented by social allure inclination, that is, subjects frequently report what they accept the questioner wishes to hear or what is the socially favored choice, as opposed to what is really the situation. A few investigations have demonstrated that the probability of untruthful reactions ascends with the level of danger offered by the conversation starter. In any case, in any event, putting aside the subject of cognizant misleading, there is the chance of noteworthy incorrectness because of broken review.
Numerous tobacco promoting introduction and review contemplates experience the ill effects of an assortment of methodological issues which sabotage their inside legitimacy. These incorporate misspecified differences, excluded cooperations and ways, endogeneity, test weakening and choice predisposition.
Identification in synchronous conditions model:
A synchronous conditions framework is characterized as a framework with at least two conditions, where a variable clarified in one condition shows up as an informative variable in another. Along these lines, the endogenous factors in the framework are all the while decided.
The Auxiliary Structure:
The auxiliary type of the synchronous conditions framework can be composed as follows:
β'Yt+ Γ' Xt=εt
•β'- framework of coefficients of endogenous factors of request (nxn)
•Yt-vector of endogenous factors of request (nx1)
•γ'- framework of coefficients of exogenous factors of request (nxm)
•Xt-vector of exogenous factors of request (mx1)
•εt-vector of mistake terms of request (nx1)
The conditions above are known as Auxiliary or Conduct Conditions since they depict the structure of an economy or the conduct of a financial specialist.
The β' and Γ' are known as basic parametersor coefficients.
The Diminished Structure:
The diminished structure for synchronous conditions framework can be obtained as follows:
We know,β'Yt+ Γ' Xt=εt
This can be changed as: β'Yt= - Γ' Xt+ εt,
Since β' is a non-particular lattice [i.e det(β') isn't equivalent to zero], it is invertible, in this way:
Yt= - (β')- 1Γ'Xt+(β')- 1εt
Yt= π'Xt+ut Where: π'= - (β')- 1γ' ut= (β')- 1εt
A diminished structure condition communicates an endogenous variable exclusively as far as the foreordained factors and the stochastic unsettling influences. The decreased structure coefficients are otherwise called Impactor Short Run Multipliers.
The Topic of ID:
By ID we mean whether numerical evaluations of the boundaries of an auxiliary can be acquired from the assessed diminished structure coefficients.
If this should be possible, we state that the specific condition is recognized else the condition viable is over-distinguished or under-distinguished. Hence, if we assess π and the connection between π, β and Γ, at that point recognizable proof offers the conversation starter of whether there exists a one of a kind answer for β1 and Γ1 (the boundaries of the main equation)?Identification is checked for the basic boundaries, condition by condition. There are two elective ways to deal with study this:
•By an investigation of the direct mixes of the conditions of the framework, that is, from the basic structure.
•By an investigation of the connection between π , β and Γ.A auxiliary condition is supposed to be recognized if and just if every one of its boundaries are distinguished. The boundaries of an auxiliary condition are supposed to be recognized if and just if they can be gotten in a special manner from the diminished structure. A concurrent conditions model (framework) is supposed to be distinguished if and just if all the basic conditions in the framework are recognized. If there are no from the earlier limitations on β1and Γ1, at that point the condition has no arrangement and subsequently can't be distinguished. Earlier limitations on the model empower ID of the basic conditions. There are two sorts of limitations:
•Normalization limitations: Such a limitation requires one of the coefficients to be decreased to 1 or - 1.
•Exclusion limitations: Such a limitation requires one of the coefficients to be decreased to zero.

The diary includes dates of major events throughout 2009 and has space to keep your essential contact numbers and your horse's event registration numbers. These useful extras, along with the colour photographs of hunting, polo, vaulting, snow racing and the Olympic disciplines, make it an ideal gift for horsy friends.
The diary is on sale for £10 at events, in tack shops and online to raise money for two charities. The first, the Claire Lomas Walk Campaign, funds treatment for Claire, who produced horses to and competed at 4-star level until an accident in 2007 at Osberton Horse trials left her paralysed. So far the fund has paid for equipment and treatment that has seen Claire take her first steps again, albeit with the aid of a sling and a treadmill. Read more about the campaign at Get Claire Walking.
The second is a branch of Spinal Research. The Saddle Up campaign was launched to raise money and awareness among the equestrian community who are at risk from spinal cord injuries. So far the campaign has raised more than £744,000. The charity does not receive any government funding, therefore it can only continue its research through generous donations from its supporters. To find out more about donation and the charity, call 01483 898786 or visit Spinal Research.

Q: Why set.intersection() works on `list` object as argument? The problem where I met the issue was, how to find the intersection between 2 lists of different lengths without duplicates.
Example:
l1 = [3, 8, 9, 6, 5, 3, 7, 8, 2, 10]
l2 = [7, 13, 20, 12, 12, 2, 6, 1, 2, 8, 19, 3, 15, 16, 14, 22, 22, 4, 9, 15, 8, 13]

The solution I suggested was:

res = list(set(l1).intersection(set(l2)))  # [2, 3, 6, 7, 8, 9]

This works fine, but what also worked was:
res = list(set(l1).intersection(l2))  # [2, 3, 6, 7, 8, 9]

Why intersection of set with list also worked, does the argument of intersection cast to set automatically?
I couldn't find a solution or source online, would appreciate it if someone could shed some light.

A: Note from the set() document:

Note, the non-operator versions of union(), intersection(), difference(), and symmetric_difference(), issubset(), and issuperset() methods will accept any iterable as an argument. In contrast, their operator based counterparts require their arguments to be sets.

A: I would assume that it accepts any iterable as a parameter, because the algorithm for finding the intersection will be fast as long as at least one of the collections has O(1) searching, and that must be the case if you're calling it as a method on a set.

Welsh Labour must retain the electoral college that has brought socialism and success to our great nation
Mick Antoniw
This month sees the close of Welsh Labour's consultation on the new rules for selecting the leader and deputy leader of Welsh Labour. For many in our party, this may seem inconsequential but trade unionists should be worried. The threat of ending the electoral college for electing our leader and deputy would weaken and undermine our historic friendship with trade unions.</div
As a politician of the left I'm very aware and proud of Labour's history. It is one inextricably linked to the trades unions and unique in social democratic politics – borne from organised labour determined to give working people a voice in parliament. We praise this link almost as a mantra in our political discussions and yet, in recent years, the sad reality is that the involvement of trade unions and affiliates with our party has been radically weakened.
When Ed Miliband chose to make the trades union-Labour link his cause celebre and take on the unions in the guise of OMOV democracy the rather shocked left of the party correctly condemned it.
It was seen as pandering to a right-wing media or dismissed as an attempt by those intent on continuing in the vein of New Labour. Blair took on Clause IV, Ed was taking on the unions. Socialists saw it for what it was – another attempt to distance the party from our trades union roots and what was perceived as an increasingly outdated allegiance to the working class and traditional socialist values.
The change was driven through and nobody could have predicted what would follow – an authentic left wing candidate with a very different and direct socialist appeal who inspired a massive increase in membership and momentum.
It is easy, and understandable, that there is a temptation for the left within Labour to advocate a simple copy-and-paste of those changes into Welsh Labour's rulebook in the belief it will deliver a similar outcome here.
I totally disagree.
For potential short term gain, if we were to end the electoral college and reduce our strong links with the unions by embracing OMOV, then we would undermine Welsh Labour's strength and ability to represent the people and communities of Wales.
Wales is not England and anyone who suggests blindly following England "just because" does our party – and those who most need a Labour government – a terrible disservice. The truth is that the structural link with the unions and its role in the election of Labour leaders creates a progressive stability and continuum that we should be proud of.
The electoral college for electing Labour leaders has delivered for Wales. We have had Welsh Labour government since devolution 20 years ago and a majority of MPs for almost a century. We have always pursued a traditional socialist path and we have been hugely successful. When Scottish Labour was all but collapsing, Welsh Labour was thriving.
It works well and I believe it remains the correct model for our party. It is a socialist model, recognising the importance in Wales of trades unions and seeing them as an equal partner in our mission to forge a better deal for working people.
In the absence of any compelling argument for change, we should not seek to lessen our relationship with those with whom we have stood shoulder to shoulder for a century or more.

How many biologists does it take to treat a loggerhead?
Acadia as she is removed from her rehabilitation tank for treatment.
At least twice a week we bring out Acadia, the loggerhead sea turtle, for treatments. She has some superficial skin lesions on her leading edge of the front flippers. This is often seen in cold-stunned sea turtles after they are returned to their proper temperature.
Some of the skin sloughed off and under microscopic examination we noticed some bacterial rods. This finding prompting the veterinarians to start her on an antibiotic. Her blood work also still shows some minor anemia so we also have been giving her a shot of iron as well.
Unlike the smaller sea turtles we normally admit to our sea turtle clinic, ones that are easily handled by one person, Acadia requires a team. I am told eight is the optimal number but we can get by with five in a pinch.
Putting her back in is not as hard as getting her out!

Title 45. Public Welfare
Chapter A. Department of Health and Human Services
Subchapter B. REQUIREMENTS RELATING TO HEALTH CARE ACCESS
Part 155. EXCHANGE ESTABLISHMENT STANDARDS AND OTHER RELATED STANDARDS UNDER THE AFFORDABLE CARE ACT
Subpart E. Exchange Functions in the Individual Market: Enrollment in Qualified Health Plans
Section 155.420. Special enrollment periods.
45 CFR § 155.420 - Special enrollment periods.
§ 155.420 Special enrollment periods.
Link to an amendment published at 84 FR 29027, June 20, 2019.
(a)General requirements -
(1)General parameters. The Exchange must provide special enrollment periods consistent with this section, during which qualified individuals may enroll in QHPs and enrollees may change QHPs.
(2)Definition of dependent. For the purpose of this section, "dependent", has the same meaning as it does in 26 CFR 54.9801-2, referring to any individual who is or who may become eligible for coverage under the terms of a QHP because of a relationship to a qualified individual or enrollee.
(3)Use of special enrollment periods. Except in the circumstances specified in paragraph (a)(4) of this section, the Exchange must allow a qualified individual or enrollee, and when specified in paragraph (d) of this section, his or her dependent to enroll in a QHP if one of the triggering events specified in paragraph (d) of this section occur.
(4)Use of special enrollment periods by enrollees.
(i) If an enrollee has gained a dependent in accordance with paragraph (d)(2)(i) of this section, the Exchange must allow the enrollee to add the dependent to his or her current QHP, or, if the current QHP's business rules do not allow the dependent to enroll, the Exchange must allow the enrollee and his or her dependents to change to another QHP within the same level of coverage (or one metal level higher or lower, if no such QHP is available), as outlined in § 156.140(b) of this subchapter, or, at the option of the enrollee or dependent, enroll the dependent in any separate QHP.
(ii) If an enrollee and his or her dependents become newly eligible for cost-sharing reductions in accordance with paragraph (d)(6)(i) or (ii) of this section and are not enrolled in a silver-level QHP, the Exchange must allow the enrollee and his or her dependents to change to a silver-level QHP if they elect to change their QHP enrollment.

FIFA Lifts Five-day Ban On Premier League's South American Players

2021-09-11T10:35:28+05:30 FIFA Lifts Five-day Ban On Premier League's South American Players
Published: 11 Sep 2021, Updated: 11 Sep 2021 11:05 am
Premier League clubs which blocked South American players from traveling to World Cup qualifiers will be able to play them this weekend after the threat of a five-day ban from FIFA was lifted. (More Football News)
Brazil, Chile, Mexico and Paraguay agreed to waive their right to trigger a FIFA regulation in what would have been a bid to prevent players from competing for their respective clubs in England's top division this weekend.
Those players were called up for World Cup qualifiers but didn't travel after Premier League teams objected to them going to South American nations which are red-listed by the British government and require 10 days of mandatory hotel quarantine on their return.
FIFA is hoping the British government eases the quarantine requirements for players in time for the next set of World Cup qualifiers in October. There had been confusion among Premier League managers over the availability of their players throughout Friday until the assurances from FIFA.
The five-day restriction period would have started immediately after the international window which, for South America, ended on Thursday. It could also have taken in Champions League games next week. Newcastle manager Steve Bruce already seemed sure Miguel Almiron was available to play against Manchester United on Saturday despite not going to Paraguay for games.
"A bit of common sense has prevailed," Bruce said, "and he's available for selection so we're extremely pleased." Among the Brazilian players who were under threat of not playing in the Premier League this weekend were Alisson Becker, Fabinho and Roberto Firmino at Liverpool; Ederson and Gabriel Jesus at Manchester City; Thiago Silva at Chelsea; and Fred at Manchester United.
Manchester United also have Uruguay striker Edinson Cavani available and Watford can field Chile defender Francisco Sierralta against Wolverhampton on Saturday. The Premier League teams had said that if players went, they then would have to spend 10 days in hotel quarantine upon their return and have little chance of training.

Why Choose RK Test Prep?
I highly recommend Rick for tutoring! He was so helpful and great at explaining everything that I felt so prepared when I went in to take the ACTs. My score ended up improving 4 points which I feel so proud of and I wouldn't have been able to do it without his help. He was so kind and I felt that he was very invested in making sure that I performed well on the test.
A couple of weeks ago I asked my daughter how it was going with Rick and if she felt that she was getting positive traction from the tutoring sessions. She turned to me and said, "Absolutely. And in addition, Rick is making me smarter in all of my classes". We are very happy with the services. We will be recommending Rick to all our friends.
Rick tutored my son, Paul, on the SAT. He had previously taken them without studying and did well but wanted a better score. Rick was recommended by Paul's college advisers. Rick was professional and easy to work with. We live further away, so after the initial meeting, they used skype for the sessions. Paul enjoyed the sessions and his SAT score went up 260 points which included a perfect 800 on the math section. We would highly recommend Rick.
My wife and I wanted a tutor for our son that had experience with the SAT/ACT. We were blessed to find Rick. Yes, he is pricey, but trust me, its well worth it if you want your son or daughter to succeed. Rick not only tutors for the exams, he actually takes them himself. We interviewed a bunch of tutors before we found Rick. They all claimed they had the best tutoring results, but how can you claim you have the best results and never sit for the exams annually. He took the time to understand what the problems our son was having and created a lesson plan for him. Our son had his sights set on a tier 2 school before tutoring sessions with Rick. We are proud to say that he was accepted to 9 out of 11 schools he applied, 3 ranked in the top 30 according to US News and World Report. It could not have happened with Rick. He is challenging, detailed and extremely patient. My sons score went up 5 points from the first ACT score after tutoring with Rick. If you want your child to get it right the first time, choose Rick.
Rick is fantastic. He's very experienced with the tests so he's basically reverse engineered all the patterns and algorithms that go into making them. His feedback on essays is very thorough and constructive. His tutoring gave me a lot of confidence going into the test and I ended up getting a total of 3 questions wrong on the entire SAT. He really helps you understand why you got certain questions wrong and how to recognize the same types of questions in the future and how to answer them correctly. I highly recommend Rick for everyone.
In addition to helping students from dozens of local schools at his office in West Chester PA, Rick has worked online with students in California, Florida, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, Texas, Virginia, and Washington, DC helping prepare for the SAT and ACT.

Interior contradicts climate objectives with carbon bomb in Wyoming
WASHINGTON, D.C. – The Department of Interior released its Proposed Resource Management Plan and Final Environmental Impact Statement for the Buffalo planning area in north-central Wyoming. The Bureau of Land Management currently manages 780,000 acres of surface lands and 4.8 million acres of federal minerals in the Buffalo planning area under a 30-year-old management plan. The updated plan authorizes the production of 10.2 billion tons of coal, estimated to produce nearly 17 billion tons of carbon pollution, and thousands of new oil and gas wells. Not included in the updated plan are reclamation plans for old, idle, or abandoned wells and mined lands, consideration of the climate impacts of new fossil fuel development, and adequate conservation measures to protect vulnerable wildlife populations and their habitats, including the sage-grouse.
Friends of the Earth Climate Campaigner Marissa Knodel issued the following response:
The Interior Department is being downright hypocritical. Secretary of the Interior Sally Jewell recently called for an "honest and open conversation about modernizing the federal coal program" in a way that is "consistent with our climate objectives." Leasing nearly all of the remaining recoverable coal in the nation's largest coal producing region is hardly a way to start that conversation.
Developing the Buffalo area coal leases could release up to 16.9 billion tons of carbon pollution, which nearly triples the estimated 5.3 billion tons of carbon savings from the Environmental Protection Agency's Clean Power Plan. President Obama has committed the U.S. to carbon emissions reductions but the Buffalo Proposed Resource Management Plan takes us in exactly the wrong direction.
To avoid further climate disruption and to align the federal government's management of our public lands with a safe and healthy climate future, new coal leases must be out of the question. The only place for dirty fossil fuels like coal is to remain in the ground.
