Q: query optimization I need newest 4 product from different 4 categories. this query is not working
SELECT
  ProductID,ProductName,thumb
  FROM
  tbproduct
  WHERE
  status =2
GROUP BY
`CATEGORYID`
ORDER BY
`ProductID` DESC
LIMIT 4

so i first order by all records.and use following query...
SELECT
ProductID, ProductName, thumb
FROM
  (
  SELECT
  ProductID,ProductName,thumb,CATEGORYID
  FROM
  tbproduct
  WHERE
  status =2
  ORDER BY
  `ProductID` DESC
  ) AS tmp
GROUP BY
`CATEGORYID`
ORDER BY
`ProductID` DESC
LIMIT 4

this query is slow can any one suggest me its fast query. I a using MySQL.

A: If you simply use:
SELECT
  ProductID,ProductName,thumb,CATEGORYID
  FROM tbproduct
  WHERE status=2
  GROUP BY CATEGORYID
  ORDER BY ProductID DESC
  LIMIT 4

A:  SELECT
  Max(ProductID), ProductName,thumb
  FROM
  tbproduct
  WHERE
  status =2
GROUP BY
`CATEGORYID`
ORDER BY
 ProductID DESC
LIMIT 4

Does this not work?

Not sure if this will help, see the updated query. See usage of Group-by Aggragate.
Note: This will not reliably return other columns. Please look here for left-self-exclusion join

A: SELECT
ProductID, ProductName, thumb
FROM tbproduct
WHERE ProductID in (
  SELECT max(ProductID)
  FROM tbproduct
  WHERE status = 2
  GROUP BY CATEGORYID
  ORDER BY ProductID DESC
  LIMIT 4
) ORDER BY ProductID DESC

That should do.

One of the greatest benefits of following our Low-Carb, Keto-Hypercarnivore Diet is how uber simple it is to prepare meals ~ a stark contrast to our vegan daze.
Eating raw meat, fish and eggs raises the bar on simple.
Raw beef or fish is typically more tender, juicy, and enjoyable than when cooked. We find it easier to eat and digest. And, so simple to prepare!
Slice, and possibly add a drizzle of this (XVOO, MCT Oil, &/or good quality balsamic vinegar), a squeeze of that (citrus), plus a pinch of Real Salt, sea salt or other seasoning, and your are good to go. Add some diced fresh herbs, chives, scallion, grape tomatoes, &/or peeled and seeded cucumbers if you desire.
Literally, you can do all that ahead of time, and easily pack your meals to go if not ready to eat before leaving your home for the day.
I think it's mostly that our culture has been trained to avoid raw meats because of the potential for ingesting harmful bacteria. Bacteria are everywhere. It's really encouraged by the government and handlers of foods to avoid liability. However, many cultures do eat raw meat on a regular basis. They don't have the 'ewww' factor, because they are used to it.
In the not so distant past, meat was consumed in varying states of 'aging' and possibly preserved using salt, or other methods. These days, butchers working at grocery stores are trained to safely handle meat, and are kept under tight supervision through food handling laws, and frequent FDA inspections. Standards are much more stringent now, then they were way back when!
We have a virus in our mind that has been trained to consider raw meat very dangerous, or 'icky' yet our ancestors never had this mental barrier to their ability to consume animal foods, and survive challenging conditions. We are here as a result of their accepting their role as apex predator ~ wisely managing the live food supplies. Humans are an integral part of wildlife management.
You may be thinking, yes, well, they are eating fresh hunted or caught meats, fish, or seafood.
That may be true, but we recently purchased some London Broil that was on sale. Don was going to try to just sear it, as it can get really dry and chewy if not cooked right. It's a lean meat, and requires the right preparation method to be enjoyable, and easy to eat.
Before starting, he tasted a small piece raw, and decided to not bother cooking it at all. It was much more palatable raw!
We have been eating this commercially purchased London Broil raw for three days now, and have been feeling great!
When it warms up around here, I naturally begin to crave a little more raw food in my diet. It's more refreshing, and saves from heating up the apartment.
I often feel like a dietary heretic. Our meals are so basic, anyone could eat them.
We don't spend NEAR the money nor time buying, then cleaning, storing, and finally chopping and preparing bunches of dark leafy greens, or a variety of other vegetables the way we did every single day while vegan. And that did not include soaking and pressure-cooking pots full of lower belly bloating and gas-inducing whole grains, beans, soups, and porridge.
We also don't blow our food budget on fresh juices, green smoothies, Kombucha drinks, and all raw, all organic anything, which I discuss in the video linked on my previous post. Nor do we spend money on gluten-free, sugar-free, dairy-free, fat-free, paleo, or keto baking mixes, treats, or other special foods.
Our diet IS NATURALLY gluten-free! And grain-free, with minimal amounts of the anti-nutrients.
Given the popularity of these products, Americans are clearly addicted to carbohydrate-rich, and especially refined grain, sugar, and fat-rich foods ~ pizza crusts, buns, breads, pretzels, chips, muffins, cookies, bars, or other special treats. I have encountered many who claim to really want to lose weight and improve their health, yet if it means having to give up their bread or pasta, it's a total deal-breaker.
You feel miserable. You pay practitioners to help you feel better. You go to doctors to get prescriptions. Perhaps you even opt in for a surgery to remove, say, your gall bladder or uterus, yet you are NOT at all willing to go through a little discomfort to overcome the very addictions that are derailing your mental and physical health.
I'm not at all saying to never indulge in a treat. Just do so mindfully. Know if you are truthfully at a place where your health won't suffer the consequences. And, if you know it will, and still decide to indulge, do so with the clear intention to enjoy indulging, then get back on track afterwards. A treat is a TREAT, not daily fare.
Our Keto-Hypercarnivore diet could not be simpler. It has helped us recover lost vitality and health after five plus years eating a produce-rich, totally plant-based diet ~ despite eating mostly conventional meat and dairy.
Of course as soon as we are able, our preference is to either raise our own food, or support a local farmer. It is just not yet in our budget or means to do so.
I have gained hours back in my day ~ literally! It truly could not be easier to pull together meals when following our keto-hypercarnivore diet ~ raw or cooked.
~ the raw was better!
Once you get mentally over the belief that you have to have tons of greens and vegetables, and accept the fact that animal protein and fats, including red meat, bacon and bacon fat can be part of a healthy diet ~ the rest is easy! Seriously. It's only the mind ~ and decades of indoctrination ~ that gets in the way!
Animal foods provide many nutrients, including some B vitamins, Vitamin A, K2, D, Heme-from of Iron, and several important amino acids that plant foods do NOT supply.
Of course eating bacon is not mandatory. Nor is eating raw meat, raw eggs, raw liver, or raw anything if you really don't want it.
Forget kale/green smoothies! 'Eggnog' ~ raw eggs blended w/ milk &/or heavy cream is the best! Satisfying & refreshing.
However, perhaps consider cutting a thin slice of some raw beef before cooking it next time. One bite won't kill you! You may be surprised as to how enjoyable it can be. In fact, many people find cooked food to be far less palatable once used to eating meat raw.
If you decide to try more, toss 100-150g of sliced beef (I've been consuming 150g) with 2-3 tsp. XVOO, or MCT oil, and Real Salt, sea salt, or other seasoning. If you have a good quality balsamic vinegar on hand, add 1/2-1 tsp. Toss it all together, and let it sit in the fridge until ready to eat. SUPER EASY MEAL! Great with raw or softly boiled eggs, 1/4-1/2 cottage cheese, and any chopped vegetables you enjoy, such as diced cucumber and tomato. Or, just follow up your raw meat meal with some citrus, fresh berries, an eggnog, or yogurt.
Photo taken in 2018. These days, I peel and de-seed cucumbers before eating. Less likely to experience gas or other bad effects. They are refreshing in the summer tossed with fresh, local tomatoes. These low-sugar 'fruits' are good choices for low-carb, and even hypercarnivore dieters.

United Kingdom 1930 - 1938
With the end of the First World War (then known as the Great War), the British Army returned to a peacetime establishment. Conscripts were released back into society, with the Regular Army returning as a small, professional army, tasked with policing the empire. Several cavalry regiments were merged in the period of 1920 to 1923, with reductions made in the number of infantry battalions during this period. The creation of the Irish Free State in 1922 resulted in five infantry regiments disappearing from the establishment of the British Army. The Territorial Army was reformed in 1920, its purpose being to reinforce the Regular Army at times of crisis.
The 1930's were a time of economic restraint, and the finance available to the British Army was limited. The British Government's policy was to maintain a small, regular (ie, full time or professional) army, supported by a larger territorial (part-time) army that could be mobilised at times of crisis. There was also a small Militia, mainly comprising recently retired regular army personnel. The main purpose of the British Army was to police the British Empire, in particular India, whilst maintaining a small corps in the United Kingdom able to be deployed to trouble-spots as and when required. The British Government relied on the concept that there would be at least ten years of increasing tension before a major war, during which time rearmament could take place. In the end, there was less than two years to prepare for the Second World War.
By 1930, the establishment of the British and Indian Armies had settled down. In the United Kingdom, there were five Commands, and two Districts. Based in the U.K. were five Regular Army infantry divisions, The 1 Infantry Division and 2 Infantry Division were up to strength and based at Aldershot. These formed the 'Spearhead Corps' available for deployment to meet the needs of the United Kingdom foreign policy. The 3 Infantry Division was based in Southern Command, the 4 Infantry Division in Eastern Command, and the 5 Infantry Division was stationed in Northern Command. There were some cavalry regiments and a few tank regiments, but mechanisation had only tentatively commenced by 1930. The Regular Army anti-aircraft artillery comprised two brigades only.
The main strength of the British Army was to be found in the fourteen Territorial Army divisional formations located across the Territorial Army. There were also a few T.A. yeomanry cavalry regiments and yeomanry artillery regiments.
Rearmament began slowly in 1932 with the creation of additional T.A. anti-aircraft units, a process that accelerated in 1935 and 1936. Mechanisation of the cavalry also continued during this period, albeit slowly. The appointment of Isaac Leslie HORE-BELISHA, M.P., as Secretary of State for War on 28 May 1937 did provide the political impetus for rearmament of the British Army, but the policy of the British government was still one of appeasement. As increased funding was found for rearmament, the priority was for the development of the Air Defence of Great Britain. This was a consequence of the Spanish Civil War, and the new impact of Air Power. The decisions of British Prime Minister, Neville CHAMBERLAIN, and his National Government proved to be extremely sound, as it was during this period that the U.K. developed the Home Chain radar system, and the Hawker Hurricane and Supermarine Spitfire single seat fighters. It was decisions and work undertaken in in 1937 and 1938 that led to the outcome of the Battle of Britain in September 1940.
By April 1939, the outbreak of war was becoming inevitable, so full scale expansion of the British Army began. The declaration of war with Germany on 3 September 1939 found the British Army only partially ready, yet by 1944 it had developed into a large, well led, well equipped and effective fighting force deployed across the world. The cost, however, in terms of those killed, wounded and taken prisoner of war was considerable, as was the financial cost to the United Kingdom economy.

Available as a Master of Science degree program or as a concentration in a Master of Business Administration degree program, a graduate-level financial planning curriculum will help you to develop an in-depth understanding of financial planning strategies, analysis models and investment research techniques. You can usually expect this type of degree to require two years to complete, and some prerequisite courses may be necessary if your undergraduate background was not in finance. As part of the program, you may need to complete a thesis project under the guidance of a faculty advisor.
Although certification is not required to begin working as a financial advisor, it can demonstrate your level of training and experience to prospective employers and clients. The CFP credential is a common certification sought by professionals in the field. It shows your expertise in financial planning processes, including retirement, investment and estate planning.
All CFP certification candidates must hold at least a bachelor's degree in a finance-related subject area, complete courses approved by the Certified Financial Planner Board of Standards, pass a certification examination and have three years of related professional experience. There's also a code of ethics that you will have to agree to follow. As a certified professional, you'll be required to complete 30 hours of continuing education credits every two years in order to stay up to date with investment trends and advancements in the industry.
According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), personal financial planners can expect favorable job prospects due to the 30% employment growth expected over the 2014-2024 decade. This rate, which is much faster than average, is expected to result in 73,900 job openings over that period. Most of this growth is due to the aging population's need for financial planning advice. As of May 2014, the BLS reported an average wage of $108,090 for personal financial planners. The middle half of workers earned between $52,590 and $139,350.

Key Insights from our Panel Discussion 'The transformative potential of the SDGs in the Netherlands'

GLOBALGOALS2020 News
By Melanie van Driel and Maya Bogers
The United Nations Sustainable Development Goals were adopted in 2015 to 'inspire multiple levels of government to embark on the transformation to sustainable development'. Five years into the goals, can we say that the SDGs are living up to these high expectations? What steering effects of the SDGs can we see so far, and what is their transformative potential for the decade to come?
In the context of the GLOBALGOALS research project, we invited four experts – representing national government, academia, business and youth – to discuss these questions for The Netherlands, our research team's home base. The experts answered all our questions, and the questions of the audience, in an interactive online panel discussion that took place on January 19th, 2021. This is a short report on their insights and reflections.
The Status of the SDGs in the Netherlands
According to the European Sustainable Development Report 2020 The Netherlands is currently ranked 14thin Europe when it comes to achievement of the SDGs. The Netherlands is doing well in achieving SDG 1 (No Poverty) and SDG 9 (Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure). Achieving the other 15 goals remains a challenge. Major challenges include achieving the goals for Responsible Consumption and Production (SDG 12), Climate (SDG 13), Life Below Water (SDG 14) and Life on Land (SDG 15) as well as Partnerships for the Goals (SDG 17).
Johan Schot, Professor of Global Comparative History and Sustainability Transitions at the Utrecht University Centre for Global Challenges kicked of the panel with a reflection on the potential of Dutch academia to contribute to the SDGs. He posits the SDGs as an agenda for the world, and universities can be part of this agenda by doing SDG-relevant research. However, an important focus of the SDGs, that is often forgotten, is transformation. To move beyond business as usual, scholars, faculties and universities must transform themselves too. One way this is addressed at Utrecht University is engaging in a reflective process of what research is currently being done, and how research can better connect to existing societal challenges and become problem driven. The latter is a broad process of reflection that must occur bottom-up and with the involvement of societal stakeholders. This focus on transformation is initiated by an SDG-mapping of existing research. Schot also emphasizes that sustainable development requires lifestyle changes that start at the level of the individual.
Sandra Pellegrom, the National SDG Coordinator stationed at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, shares insights on the commitment of Dutch government to achieve the SDGs. She states that exactly because of its transformative and ambitious nature, the 2030 Agenda takes time to implement. Yet, many actors in Dutch society already play an active role in implementing the SDGs in a bottom-up matter. For example, 'SDG Nederland' is a network of over a thousand Dutch organizations (for-profit, not-for-profit, large and small) that have voluntarily committed to use the SDGs in their organization, and actively contribute to their achievement. This network already started in 2013 (then under the name 'SDG Charter'). The Dutch government tries to facilitate such bottom=up initiatives. However, the current Dutch coalition agreement is not based on the SDGs, and few national policies explicitly mention or link to the goals. Pellegrom nevertheless is happy with the progress being made. An ongoing mapping of the relation between existing policies and SDG targets shows that, although this is currently not explicitly stated, policies exist for nearly every SDG target. In addition, policies do exist that address weaknesses observed in the monitoring reports, including on environment and climate. It will be essential, however, to focus more on the social goals in the near future, including those around poverty and inequality.
Joukje Janssen,Partner at PwC and responsible for Sustainability Reporting and Governance, reflects on the role that companies play in achieving the SDGs. She is positive about the extent to which companies have adopted the SDGs: many show how their strategy relates to the SDGs, and a few are even taking the SDGs as a basis for new strategies. It remains a challenge, however, to balance short term revenue gain with long term impact. This requires a cultural shift within companies that is a time-consuming process. Furthermore, as businesses try to define areas where they can have the highest impact, it proves difficult to design useful impact indicators. PwC, itself an early adopter of the SDGs, only recently started an impact measurement pilot. Joukje contends that the regulatory push of the European Union has inspired businesses to incorporate sustainable development in a way not observed before.
Thyrza Zoons, Board Member of the National Youth Council (NJR), reflects on the involvement of Dutch youth in SDG implementation, and the potential to trigger youth to more action.The mission of the council is to inspireand enable young people to express their voice, which she deems highly relevant in the context of the SDGs. Changesin our educational system are needed to realize the full potential of youth to contribute to the SDGs. Instead of focusing solely on the 'hard' sciences like math and biology, weneed to allow youth to develop all interests and talents that might help them tomake a positivechange. Another necessary change relates to the language used to propagate the goals, which she considers 'not sexy'and not inclusive enough. The term'is too abstract' and too detached from the daily lives of Dutch youth to spur mass action of young people.
Does The Netherlands communicate clearly, and steer forcefully enough?
In general, the panelists agreethat more action is needed to reach the goals in 2030, that more needs to be done to communicate the goals in a comprehendible manner, and that all societal actors are needed to realize the envisioned transformation. The panelists differed, however, in their vision on the need for a leading actor to kick-start this transformation. Pellegromstatesthat many actors are already coordinating via the SDG Netherlands network, and that the government is working hard on its SDG mapping to improve the communication of its SDG related activities. Schot emphasizes the importance of individual activities and lifestyle choices related to the SDGs and warns that steering 'from above' might empower actors that have in continuing business as usual. Janssen, on the other hand, does recognize the added value of a regulatory pushfrom government, as this has worked well in the past to enforce more sustainable business practices. During the discussion, multiple participants didquestion the transformative nature of the SDGs themselves. Within and outside of the research community, it has been clear that trade-offs between SDGs exist. Ambitions for continued growth co-exist with aims to tackle climate change and increase biodiversity. Schot emphasizes the need to look at entry points for transformation that take these trade-offs into account, and Pellegrom also recognized the need to study interlinkages more closely. The adequacy of existing indicators was also questioned, as well as the timeline beyond 2030. It was also mentioned that companies, government and academia are not prevented from engaging in SDG 'cherry-picking'. This leaves the door open for actors to focus on goals they can easily contribute to, instead of goals that require the biggest effort.
Moving forward: five avenues for action
All actors agree that more needs to happen to transform the Netherlands and reach the 2030 Agenda. Several action venues were suggested during the panel that have real potential to accelerate the 2030 Agenda in the Netherlands.
The way in which the goals are communicated must be simplified to reach a broader audience and inspire action within Dutch society more broadly.
Dutch citizens need to be reminded of the small actions they can make in their own lives to contribute to these goals.
Dutch government can inspire activity among citizens by clearly relating its own policies to the SDGs, using the SDGs as the framework for the next coalition agreement, and issuing yearly reports where it is clarified how goals that are currently facing significant challenges are going to be addressed.
More can be done to create a level playing field for businesses who might be willing to implement the goals into their strategy but are currently concerned that this will impact their competitiveness.
All actors, and companies especially so, should be discouraged from cherry-picking SDGs. A shift towards integrated reporting on all goals could help in this regard.
Upcoming SDG events in the Netherlands
The panelist suggest interested readers to keep an eye out for the following events:
The parliamentary discussion on the SDGs in May
The SDG Barometer that is being developed by PwC
Especially relevant for young people: The "Night of the UN", and workshops and lectures related to the SDGs hosted by the Youth Council.
From our side as the GLOBALGOALS team, we invite you to join our upcoming webinars on our forthcoming SDG Mid-term Assessment: an assessment of the steering effects of the SDGs globally, conducted with a group of over 40 renowned international scientists.

We would once again like to thank the panelists and everyone that tuned in for their insights and questions. The panel discussion was originally held on January 19th, 2021 and was moderated by Maya Bogers and Melanie van Driel. You can re-watch the entire discussion here.

Michelangelo Ricci (1619–1682) was an Italian mathematician and a Cardinal of the Roman Catholic Church.

Biography

Michelangelo Ricci was born on 30 January 1619 in Rome, then capital of the Papal States, to a family of low social standing that originated in Bergamo.

He studied theology and law in Rome, where he was a contemporary of René-François de Sluse. He also studied mathematics under Benedetto Castelli who himself had been a student of Galileo Galilei. He was a friend of Evangelista Torricelli, kept close links with contemporary scientific culture, and played an important role in the development of the Galilean school.

Like de Sluze, he spent his entire career in the Roman Catholic Church and served the pope in various roles on several occasions.  A trained theologian, he acted as consultant to various Congregations of the Roman Curia.  Having suffered from epilepsy since his birth, he was (according to canon law of the time) disqualified from ordination.  Nonetheless, he was created a Cardinal-Deacon in the Consistory of 1 September 1681 by Pope Innocent XI, with the title 'Cardinal-Deacon of Santa Maria in Aquiro'.  His position in the church was very useful for protecting his friends and fellow scientists in their controversies with the opposing scholastic school.

He played a significant part in the theoretical debates and experiments that led up to Torricelli's discovery of atmospheric pressure and invention of the mercury barometer.  In particular he followed the experiments in this field by Gasparo Berti, in Rome.

There is an unpublished manuscript by Ricci, devoted to algebra, in the library of the Mathematical Institute of Genoa.  It shows that by 1640 he was familiar with the 'New Algebra' of François Viète.  In this book he provides a critique of the solutions given by the geometer Marino Ghetaldi of Ragusa in his De Resolutione et Compositione Matematica to the problems posed by Apollonius of Perga.

His published mathematical work is summarised in a treatise of nineteen pages, Exercitatio geometrica, de maximis et minimis (1666) in which he studies the maxima of functions of the form  and tangents to curves with equation , using methods that are an early form of induction.  This treatise was much admired by his contemporaries and has recently been republished as an appendix to Mercator's 'Logarithmo-Technia' (1688).  He also studied spirals (1644) and cycloids (1674) and recognised that the study of tangents and the calculation of areas are reciprocal operations.

Ricci is also known for his correspondence with Torricelli, Vincenzo Viviani, Rene de Sluze and Cardinal Leopoldo de' Medici, founder of the Accademia del Cimento. These letters give his thoughts on paraboloids and hyperboloids when cut by parallel planes, on the surface of a ring, and on the properties of the vacuum.  It was Ricci who welcomed Marin Mersenne, when he came to Italy to present the work of René Descartes. In optics he studied the magnifying effect of lenses. With Giovanni Battista Baliani he discussed the Galilean revolution. Ricci was also a close associate of Antonio Nardi, another mathematician in Rome. He collaborated with Nardi on his Scene, an unpublished manuscript that circulated among Torricelli and others, in which Ricci included some of the material that would later appear in his 1666 Geometrica Exercitatio.

Following the death of Torricelli and the disappearance of Bonaventura Cavalieri, he was requested to collate and publish his correspondence with these two men.  However he declined the invitation, leading to Torricelli's work being forgotten for some time.

He endeavored to defend Francesco Redi against Cardinal Leopold when Redi published his Esperienze Intorno alla Generazione degl'Insetti, arguing against the spontaneous generation of insects.

Ricci was also the backer of Abbot Francisco Nazzari in the publication of the first review of Italian literature, the Giornale de' Letterati (1668-1683).

He died in Rome, age 63, on 12 May 1682.

Super Bowl 50 – All You Need To Know
We explore The Super Bowl, the biggest sports event in North America with over 110 million viewers. Check out this guide to the essential facts.
Aah… San Francisco. Home to Haight-Ashbury, the Golden Gate Bridge and, this February, the biggest annual sporting occasion in North America. Yes, the city that gave birth to hippy counter-culture is about to welcome the Super Bowl. The match that Americans understatedly call "The Big Game" is taking place on Sunday February 7, at the home stadium of San Francisco's own 49ers.
At this point, we should really mention that the stadium itself isn't in San Francisco itself – but actually about 40 miles outside the city limits, in Santa Clara. So you'll need to drive. All is not lost though, as it gives you the opportunity to also explore both Santa Clara and nearby San Jose as part of a wider Super Bowl excursion – allowing you to really get an authentic flavour of the Bay Area.
The 49ers themselves are among the franchises to have played in London in recent years – a further three NFL matches are coming to the UK capital in October 2016 – but for now all eyes are on the grand prize in San Francisco. American Football's showpiece event routinely draws TV audiences of more than 110 million, but how much do you know about it? Here's our guide to the essential facts.
It turns 50 this year
The 2016 final is being billed as the "Golden Super Bowl". Why? Not only is it being played in California, the so-called Golden State, but it's also the fiftieth edition of what has become America's biggest annual sporting occasion (only the UEFA Champions' League final draws bigger viewing figures worldwide). The Super Bowl is celebrating its golden anniversary. Not only that, but with the match taking place at the home of the 49ers – a team named after the 1949 Gold Rush – we're provided with yet another "golden" link.
The match is a championship showdown between two "conferences"
The Super Bowl itself represents the season's finale, pitting the winners of the American Football Conference (AFC) against their table-topping counterparts from the National Football Conference (NFC). Both leagues contain 16 teams from around the US, and they're fairly well matched historically – NFC teams have won the trophy 26 times over the years, compared to 23 victories by AFC teams.
The final routinely takes place in front of a capacity crowd, with last year's attendance well in excess of 100,000. But the stat that really tells you how popular the event has become? "Super Bowl Sunday" is officially the second largest food consumption day in the US, after Thanksgiving.
Its name was inspired by a child's bouncy ball
The event's name was coined by a sports promoter named Lamar Hunt in the 1960s, who had been watching his kids playing with a synthetic rubber toy known as a Super Ball. Combining this with the American habit of calling championship college football matches "bowl games" (the "bowl" in question being the stadium), he came up with the now-familiar title. In a letter to the sport's commissioner in 1966, Hunt wrote "I have kiddingly called it the Super Bowl, which obviously can be improved upon." The media thought more of the name than Hunt seemingly did, however, and it was adopted from the word go.
This year's Halftime Show comes from Coldplay
"Madonna Halftime show" (CC BY-SA 2.0) by SAB0TEUR
Halftime entertainment at the Super Bowl has become as big a talking point as the action itself. Long gone are the early years, when spectators were serenaded only by university marching bands. These days, it's A-list mega-artists or nothing. Taking up the mantle this year are the UK's own Coldplay, who follow in the sizeable footsteps of acts like Bruce Springsteen, U2, Prince, Stevie Wonder and Madonna. The London foursome are far from being the first Brits to headline, of course: past performers also include The Who, Paul McCartney and The Rolling Stones. Sets can sometimes be up to nine songs long.
An advertising slot will now set you back five million dollars
A sporting contest of this scale is a natural magnet for big-name consumer brands – but it's far from cheap for advertisers to get involved. It's been reported that the host broadcaster is now demanding $5 million for a 30-second commercial during the event; an astronomical rise from the $37,500 that was being quoted back in 1967 for the very first Super Bowl. And big-buck corporations aren't the only ones expected to dig deep – a helping of "souvenir popcorn" cost a cool $15 at last year's final.
Predicting the winners isn't straightforward
"MRR_0152.JPG" (CC BY 2.0) by SteelCityHobbies
In contrast to many sporting tournaments around the world, the Super Bowl throws up a thoroughly democratic range of champions – the past nine years have seen eight different winners. The most successful team to date are the Pittsburgh Steelers, who have lifted the trophy six times (including four times between 1974 and 1979). And pity the only four current teams never to have reached the Super Bowl final: the Detroit Lions, the Houston Texans, the Jacksonville Jaguars and the Cleveland Browns. The latter are sometimes known, unkindly, as the "Cleveland Clowns".
The host cities tend to be world-class travel destinations
The first ever Super Bowl took place in Los Angeles in 1967 (the year of the "Summer of Love" further up the coast in San Francisco) and the event has been back to the LA region six times since. Even more established as host cities are Miami and New Orleans, which have both witnessed finals on ten separate occasions. The upshot? The potential for turning a Super Bowl holiday into an unforgettable road trip is generally very high. On which note, if you're in the San Francisco Bay area this time around, don't miss the chance to take in the Pacific Coast Highway.
If you're planning well in advance, next year's Super Bowl takes place in Houston in February 2017 – which also happens to be within easy driving distance of Texas' famous rugged terrains of "hill country". So get ready to saddle up…

/Sectors & Themes/Mobility: Mode of Transport/Maritime
Erik Schumacher
Head of Division Strategy & Coordination
Dr. Christopher Stanik
Programme Manager Mobility and Fuel Strategy
Federal Funding Programme NIP
Mobility and Fuels Strategy
Ahoy! LNG technology can now come on board! The federal government is funding the equipping and conversion of ships, and the fuel itself can be provided in ports. Clean air at the port is also to be promoted through funding support for sustainable on-board and mobile shore-side power. This will not only benefit those working there but also all that live or go for walks tin the area. Other areas will also be the focus of support, including battery and fuel cell drives on ferries and as well as excursion vessels. Pilot projects are welcome.
In order to make shipping more environmentally friendly, limits have so far been set for pollutant levels in fuels and specific emissions. Since 2015, the maximum permissible sulphur content in usable fuels for maritime shipping has been 3.5 percent. In 2020, this internationally applicable limit will be reduced to 0.5 percent and for all EU ports to 0.1 percent. A maximum limit of 0.1 percent already applies to emission control areas of the North Sea and the Baltic Sea. From 2021, the North Sea and the Baltic Sea will also be considered emission control areas for nitrogen oxides (NOx). From 2021, the NOx Tier III standard will apply to operations in the North Sea and the Baltic Sea.

LNG as a Fuel – Already the Low-Emission Alternative
Liquid natural gas (LNG) causes virtually no sulphur oxide and particulate matter emissions (SOx and PM). As an alternative to conventional, oil-based shipping fuels, LNG also facilitates a reduction of nitrogen oxide emissions (NOx) by up to 90 per cent. Therefore using LNG for onboard electricity supply while in harbour offers great potential to improve the air quality for local people. Greenhouse gases are also reduced through the use of LNG. For example, already through equipping a 1,400 TEU containership with an LNG drive, the annual greenhouse gas emissions of 1,500 and the nitrogen oxide emissions of 500,000 diesel trucks can be compensated for. With renewable LNG, greenhouse gas emissions can be even more steeply compensated for. Another advantage of the LNG system is feasibility. LNG technology is already mature enough for shipping and the fuel can be provided at harbour. In order to mobilise shipyards towards the environmentally-friendly option, the Federal Ministry of Transport and Digital Infrastructure (BMVI) is providing funding, supported by the NOW GmbH, for the equipping and conversion of seagoing vessels with LNG systems.
Further alternative drive and fuel technologies can also be funded by the BMVI as innovative pilot projects in the framework of the Mobility and Fuels Strategy.
Battery With an Electric Engine – Clean With Renewable Electricity
Quiet, efficient, environmentally-friendly: electric engines that are operated with electricity from renewable energies, cause no emissions in operation. Above all ferries or passenger ships, which cover relatively short distances, are already now particularly suitable for the battery-electric drive. Recharging takes place during mooring and at night or during the trip via solar electricity. The electrification of the ferry service contributes on the local level to national greenhouse gas reduction goals. The use of fully electric ships is also increasing in Germany. The first battery ships are already sailing. In order to advance battery-electric mobility for ships, the electric mobility funding guideline of the BMVI comprises funding possibilities in research and development areas (R&D) as well as in concept and procurement funding.
Fuel Cells With Electric Engines – Long Ranges and No Harmful Emissions
Hydrogen and fuel cell technology can be used in the shipping area for emission-free drives and for onboard electricity supply. In the short term, available fuels can be resorted to (LNG, diesel, methanol), but also electricity-based fuels (hydrogen, synthetic fuels, etc.) can be used.
Three relevant projects for inland shipping with hybrid drive concepts with fuel cells will be tested at the technological hub of Germany and funded by the BMVI. For seagoing vessels, the use of fuel cells for the generation of onboard electricity will be tested in three additional funding projects in order to replace conventional technology and thus avoid damaging exhausts. Since the introduction of the National Innovation Programme for Hydrogen and Fuel Cell Technology (NIP), the federal government is investing in projects for alternative energy systems with hydrogen and fuel cells in shipping.

Reportage Politics
Manmohan Singh at the centre of the storm

SIPRA DAS / THE INDIA TODAY GROUP / GETTY IMAGES
[ I ]
ON THE MORNING OF 15 AUGUST, India's Independence Day, it was raining cats and dogs in Delhi. By 7 am, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh was atop the ramparts of the 17th-century Red Fort, hoisting the flag and saluting the assembled soldiers and citizens from behind a glass enclosure. Amid a sea of umbrellas, children who had gathered to watch the parade ran about, as if at a disorderly festival ground; the soldiers and paramilitary troops -paraded on the wet asphalt, completely drenched.
It was an unusually gloomy Independence Day, and not merely because of the inclement weather. After a cursory presentation of his government's achievements over the past seven years, Singh devoted almost the entirety of his eighth Independence Day speech to a series of crises: the recent terrorist attacks in Mumbai; the ongoing "challenge of Naxalism"; inflation and rising food prices; the "tensions caused" by land acquisition; and, most of all, "the problem of corruption"—"a difficulty for which no government has a magic wand".

Last week I hit Ikea on the way home from the Dentist. Fun! (Nothing like a good incentive to go to the Dentist like a stop at Ikea on the way home.) I always love to check out their fabric selection because they have great stuff at great prices. Here's what I found new this time. Love it! So Scandinavian looking. It's called Snoa Flinga and is only $4.99 a yard. I didn't have a specific project in mind (maybe throw pillows?) so I only bought a yard. Now I'm wishing I bought more and I would just quilt it as is for a cool throw.
In the mean time I used a small piece like this. Instant wall art. And so much faster than sewing something.
Here's my other new love at Ikea. The Hemnes Linen Cabinet. I LOVE this one. Wouldn't it look awesome with stacks of folded quilts inside?They used to have a similar piece in gold; while totally awesome on it's own, it just wouldn't look super against my taupe colored walls. I used to look at it and contemplate how hard it would be to buy one and paint it red. Well, thank you Ikea people for doing the work for me! Now I just need to start saving my pennies!
Finally – one thing to consider when visiting Ikea on the way home from the dentist with a numb mouth: don't eat the frozen yogurt cone until you are safely inside your car. Or you may end up like me, checking your rear view mirror only to discover the frozen yogurt dripping down your chin of which you were totally unaware. Just a friendly warning.
I love that Linen Cabinet! The red would match my place perfectly! hmm… gotta start saving also!
I love that whole collection of furniture. That is too funny about yogurt runnng down your chin. :)

I so love that store. Way too addicting. Is their material too stiff for quilts? I've often wondered that.
That cabinet is wonderful! I've got two dressers from that line, and both are in my kitchen. I've got my microwave sitting on the red 4 drawer one, with all my dishtowels, and silverware, plastic wrap and foil & the like. I've also go the tall one in black with all the things that won't fit in my too few and totally inadequate kitchen cabinets.
A trip to the dentist is a small price to pay for a stop at Ikea. Love your fabric. And hope you get your cabinet soon!
that cabinet is fabulous! As is the yellow and white stripe in the back of it. Yes. Is it illegal to paint a nice cabinet that is in good condition, but you just want it to look like this one? I'm personally of the belief that a wood finish is not sacred. We'll see what my husband says about that, though.
Oh. wow. That linen cabinet is to die for. I have to say that I have a whole new appreciation for dental appointments since having kids (=unfettered alone time). I had a teeth cleaning appointment last week and I was giddy with excitement. Weird.
Ohh! I love that cabinet (I have been obsessed with red ever since I can remember)… I have some similar red/white fabric and I've thought of doing some throw pillows. Seeing your post has reminded me that it's buried somewhere down there….
I love that linen cupboard as well. I am hoping that we have space for it in our new place next year.
Oh that Snoa Flinga is beautiful!
I have been stalking that linen cabinet in yellow for about a year now. I just love it!
Great fabric and it would be awesome just quilted as is!
That is such great fabric! I wish I lived close enough to an IKEA to go pick some up – but it's a five hour drive for me. That would make a lovely whole cloth quilt. Feel like picking some up for me?
I love Ikea as well 🙂 I can never leave without buying a yard or two of something. I just got a cool glass door cabinet from there and I can't wait to stack my fabric in it.
I love IKEA too, but have always lived 3+ hours away. Such a great price! Their fabric I see online is wonderful! And I'm nuts about anything Scandinavian!
I love those Ikea products too. My favorite part – well i love it all – but i think that's such a great touch that they add the very cool stripe liner. We own a few Ikea pieces too – looks great and very affordable :).
Oooh! I didn't know that cabinet came in red now! My husband's gonna be MAD.
My MIL just bought that exact cupboard for her sewing room. She filled it up with fabric and it is nearly the most perfect storage item ever. Love it!
I absolutely love the linen cabinet! What a great piece! Whenever I think of storing quilts I think to put it on a quilt rack…but this is perfect!!
i hsd no idea Ikea had fabric!!!
