The heaviest artificial objects to reach space include space stations, various upper stages, and discarded Space Shuttle external tanks. Spacecraft may change mass over time such as by use of propellant.

During the Shuttle–Mir program between 1994 and 1998, the complex formed by the docking of a visiting Space Shuttle with Mir would temporarily make it heaviest artificial object in orbit with a combined mass of  in a 1995 configuration.

Currently the heaviest spacecraft is the International Space Station, nearly double Shuttle-Mir's mass in orbit. It began assembly with a first launch in 1998, however it only attained its full weight in the 2020s, due to its modular nature and gradual additions. Its mass can change significantly depending on what modules are added or removed.

Selected spacecraft (by mass)
The following are a list of spacecraft with a mass greater than , or the top three to any other orbit including a planetary orbit, or the top three of a specific category of vehicle, or the heaviest vehicle from a specific nation.

Скульптурна група «Козаки» — монументальна композиція на північно-західній околиці Волгодонська. Прикрашає шлюз № 15 Волго-Донського судноплавного каналу. Зведена в 1953 році за проектом архітектора Леоніда Михайловича Полякова і скульптора Георгія Івановича Мотовилова. Постановою Ради міністрів РРФСР № 1327 від 30 серпня 1960 року монумент віднесено до пам'яток державного значення. Скульптурна група «Козаки» є єдиним об'єктом культурної спадщини федерального значення в Волгодонську і Волгодонському районі. Скульптури козаків символізують подвиг гвардійців Кубанського козацького кавалерійського корпусу в роки Великої Вітчизняної війни та військову славу Донського козацтва в цілому.

Опис

Скульптурна композиція складається з двох веж-колон, розташованих по обидві сторони від останнього (№ 15) шлюзу Волго-Донського судноплавного каналу. На них встановлені статуї вершників. П'єдестали виконані в дусі раннього класицизму, зверху прикрашені фільончастим поясом. Ширина біля основи становить 4,5 м. Напис на меморіальній дошці свідчить: «Тут у серпні 1942 року стояли на смерть, захищаючи ворота Кавказу, гвардійці Кубанського козацького корпусу, здивувавши світ своєю стійкістю і величчю духу.»

Козаки в мундирах зображуються на здиблених конях. Один з козаків замахується шашкою, інший тримає її над головою. У зв'язку з тим, що «Козаки» є об'єктами культурної спадщини федерального значення на прилеглій території заборонено вести господарську або яку-небудь іншу діяльність, здатну чинити негативний вплив на збереження цього об'єкта, крім цього, заборонено розміщувати будь-які інформаційні або рекламні стенди і вирубувати рослинність.

Petpooja for Restaurants
Experience Dine-in with FoodBOT (Robot) -The future of food-service
It's 2021 and while the restaurant industry is far from its earliest incarnation, one thing that hasn't changed is the constant drive towards greater efficiency. And efficiency requires innovation and that's where the robots come in. The decreasing costs of hardware such as circuits and sensor boards and the real-time advancements in artificial intelligence software have contributed largely to this progression in innovation. The restaurant industry is fast adapting to these changes and some establishments have gone as far as fully automating the restaurant by providing each service with an AI-enabled robot. The future of dining out is here and it's only going to get better from now.
In Boston, Spyce, a new innovative restaurant by the Michelin star chef Daniel Boulud, robots have replaced human chefs. Boulud partnered with the robotics engineers from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology to make this happen. Seven automated woks cook the customer's meals in the kitchen, in three minutes or less!
While on the West Coast, in California, 'Flippy'- the world's first burger-flipping robot has been making waves since March 2018. The robot was designed to take orders through a digital ticketing system, automatically flip the burgers and remove them from the grill.
While Flippy can expertly handle the burger-flipping by using thermal and 3D sensors, the human staff still need to place the patties on the grill and assemble the rest of the burger with toppings. Whatever said and done, the robot was after all praised for being efficient, cost-effective, and time-saving due to its ability to flip an astonishing 150 burgers per hour.
Right of a sci-fi movie plot, outside the kitchen, Robot Waiters have become a reality. The robot waiters have not only become a viable way to increase profit margins but have also allowed the human staff by taking over menial tasks and freeing them to focus on customer service and other high-value interactions. The Petpooja Robot is a flagship AI-powered food-service robot that serves your guests and gets them their bill without any human intervention hence cutting down on unnecessary human effort.
The new generation of robots or cobots (cooperative robots) are designed to work together with humans safely and combine them with existing standard commercial kitchen equipment will ensure substantial cost savings.
Apart from being great from an advertising standpoint and not to forget, incredibly cute, robot waiters are also responsible for elevating food safety in restaurants. Especially in a post-pandemic era, when dining out is a big deal, safety and hygiene automatically have reached the top of the priority list for the diners. Less bare hand contact results in less contamination ensuring increased safety and consistency in the service.
Right from simplifying the cooking process to reducing the operating costs, the robots can be utilized and programmed for every step of the automating process. Since the robots can be programmed to prepare dishes by portioning the ingredients accurately, the probability of errors is highly minimized. The advantage of automation in this scenario also gives the restaurant a chance to offer all types of cuisines from around the world since the robots are not limited by culinary skills. This can as a result help restaurants draw larger, more varied crowds thus increasing revenues.
RECOMMENDED READ A Quick Guide to Temporary Restaurant Staff Management
Considering robots can work at a much faster pace than humans, they automatically improve productivity. By reducing wait time and enabling faster checkouts, a restaurant can take on and serve more customers during their working hours. Another added advantage is that robots can work longer hours than humans, and so the restaurant doesn't need to hire multiple people to do the same tasks in different shifts. Robots can therefore prove highly advantageous to restaurants that work long shifts.
While in the wake of restaurants replacing humans with robots, concerns relating to robots replacing them completely have surfaced and are valid. Complete automation at least right now also has its disadvantages. Restaurants should aim to strike a balance with semi-automated establishments with robots taking on the more mundane and menial tasks.
With the advent of newer and more sophisticated point of sale and Restaurant billing software and all-around automation with robots, the rise of technology is inevitable. India as a country is still gradually getting around to the idea and welcoming it with open arms from what we can tell.
We at Petpooja are considering this, no less than a revolution in the future of foodservice and are ready, front and center with our AI powered food service robot. An autonomous system, the robot consists of two components- a robot and a robot calling device for each table. Ergonomically designed to function smoothly at a restaurant, the robot can seamlessly serve food to your guests and get them the bill ensuring contactless and faster service. With the quick and hassle-free deployment, our robot is completely autonomous with its obstacle detection feature. This leaves the human staff to focus on delivering a better quality of experience to the diner. Sounds exciting already, doesn't it?
Petpooja leaves no stones unturned to bring to you the best and the latest technology for your restaurant needs. Committed to helping you grow every day, we're the biggest and the best restaurant management software in India catering to more than 15,000 + restaurants pan India. It has every management function you need for your restaurant at a fixed rate. To know more visit our website: www.petpooja.com or call us on +91 7046223344 Today and see our ROBOT!

The 48th annual Bubonicon science-fiction and fantasy convention teleports down to Albuquerque this Friday through Sunday, Aug. 26 through 28. This year's theme is "Rockets, Robots & Rayguns." More than 50 artists, authors and filmmakers will be among this year's special guests, headlining panel discussions, book signings and more. As always there's a decent selection of film- and TV-based events scattered throughout the weekend. Friday at 9:30pm will see the return of the popular, annual cult film panel, this time titled "For the Love of Cheese: Attack of the Cheese Magnet's Revenge." Ben Bova, Adam J. Brown, Craig Butler, Vic Milan, Scott Phillips and Robert Vardeman will take part in the discussion moderated by John Jos. Miller concerning the worst, most beloved cult movie double-feature the participants can imagine. On Saturday at noon, Lori Jansen will host a fan program titled "Smells Like Nirvana: Science Fiction & Fantasy TV of the '90s." Noted Texas author Joe R. Lansdale is coming to the festivities this year to serve as Bubonicon's prestigious Toastmaster. Over the years, Lansdale's written works have been translated into both films (Bubba Ho-Tep, Cold in July) and television series (Sundance Channel's recent "Hap and Leonard"). You can catch Lansdale giving a one-hour talk on Saturday at 4pm. At 10:30pm on Saturday evening, Adam J. Brown presents his annual late-night movie shindig. This year's feature is Glenn Berggoetz' no-budget action comedy To Die is Hard, in which a well-read English professor fends off a gang of terrorists who have invaded a college campus. Berggoetz is famous for being the director of the lowest-grossing movie of all time, 2011's The Worst Movie Ever (it made $11 its first weekend of theatrical release). Additional short film and internet shenanigans will accompany the feature. For a complete schedule of Bubonicon 48 events, go to bubonicon.com. All festivities will take place at the Albuquerque Marriott Uptown (2101 Louisiana NE). Passes are $45 for the entire weekend or $15 for Friday, $25 for Saturday and $15 for Sunday.
This week's Movies on the Plaza presents the 1998 Native American comedy/drama Smoke Signals, directed by Chris Eyre and written by Sherman Alexie. The film—about two very different Native American boys growing up on a small reservation in Idaho—stars Adam Beach, Evan Adams, Gary Farmer and Irene Bedard. Keeping with the theme, this week's ABQ Food Friday will be hosted by Pueblo Harvest Cafe. Show up between 5 and 8pm at Downtown's Harry E. Kinney Plaza to get your hands on some great food from this local eatery. Native Roots will also be on hand, filling the plaza's main stage with music. The film will begin at dusk (around 8:20pm). This is a dog- and bike-friendly event. Feel free to bring your own chairs or blankets. Admission is, as always, free to the public.

Key insights from Reni Eddo-Lodge's
A hard look at structural racism in Britain and the world at large.
Journalist Reni Eddo-Lodge wrote a blog post in 2014 called "Why I'm No Longer Talking to White People About Race." It immediately went viral; her frustrations with ambivalent or defensive white people resonated with many readers while infuriating others. In this Snapshot, you'll learn her thoughts on structural racism and how it seeps into every facet of our lives. As you'll find out, those who benefit from structural racism may not notice it, but it is painfully obvious to everyone else.
Care about racial equality and fighting discrimination
Are interested in politics
Want to engage in more-informed discussions about racism
In her 2014 blog post, "Why I'm No Longer Talking to White People About Race," Reni Eddo-Lodge wrote about frustrating conversations she'd had with white people who refused to acknowledge structural racism or white privilege.
There is an emotional disconnect when people of color attempt to describe their personal experiences to white people. This disconnect is the result of white people living a life where their skin color is the standard and others are the deviation, of bewilderment and defensiveness toward the idea that someone else's experience could be different from their...

Why I'm No Longer Talking to White People About Race - Reni Eddo-Lodge


Mentoring has been around for thousands of years. Mentor Coaching is the latest form of this powerful guidance system.
In exchange, the masters would eventually share their secrets, their sources, and their contacts. In the process the dedicated apprentice learned to think like they thought, do what they did, and get the same masterful results.
In 1500 BC the King of Ithica, Odysseus, needed someone to look after his son, Telemachus, while he was fighting the Trojan War. He entrusted an old friend to take care of the boy and to impart his wisdom, values, and learnings. This wise and trusted counselor was named Mentor.
What is Mentor Coaching Like?
We live in a much different world now. Life is faster, technology is better, and communication – even halfway around the globe – happens in just seconds. The value of being guided by the wisdom of a Master or Mentor, however, remains as important as ever.
Every successful person has a mentor. Most likely they have had several mentors.
Mentors share knowledge and experience that is hard for beginners to grasp on their own. Formidable learning comes easier and faster with a mentor guiding the process.
Just think of the last time you spent hours trying to figure out a challenge with your computer. Then someone came along and – in two seconds – showed you how to solve your dilemma. This is similar to the value of a Mentor Coach except with mentoring the objectives are much larger and the results more fantastic.
Like other forms of coaching, mentoring is about listening without judgment and questioning for clarification, and challenging for results. The safer and calmer the environment, the better the outcomes.
Where Mentor Coaching differs from other coaching specialties is in focus. Various types of coaches can help many people with varying levels of experience in numerous fields. The focus of a mentoring relationship is specific to the expertise of the mentor.
If an aspiring writer wanted to become a best-selling author the shortest route would be to hire a Mentor Coach with several best-selling books to their credit. A struggling, new attorney might work with a retired Senior Partner from a prestigious law firm. An aspiring speaker and trainer would become the protégé of a nationally recognized professional speaker.
Here's something else to consider: An up-and-coming Life Coach would do well to engage a Mentor Coach who specializes in working with new coaches. Imagine what a boost that would be.
Mentor Coaching enables the client to take a shortcut without missing the scenery. As a mentor, your protégé will learn valuable life lessons from your mistakes and skip the painful – and often long – recovery period. A mentor provides the wisdom of a lifetime minus the pain of acquiring it.
Without a mentor there is no guide. Individuals without Mentor Coaches are limited to their own knowledge, experience and resources. They might be able to reach the same level of success – eventually – but the amount of time it will take combined with the pain of trial and error will take its toll.
For this reason Mentor Coaches can easily command the highest fees in coaching.
Mentor Coaching is a unique combination of undeniable sage and exceptional coaching skills. This is not the level at which coaches normally start out though some coach's life experience offer them a great headstart. Even those individuals who have experienced tremendous success in their field may not have what it takes to mentor others. Mentoring change is very different from directing work or leading action.
How to create the ideal environment and to provide opportunities for their protégés to experience "teachable moments" and use new skills.
How to transfer their knowledge and articulate the critical ideas and relevant points that lead to the desired results.
How to manage the learning curve and allow protégés to explore the consequences of their potential decisions.
Relatable experience in their chosen field of mentoring.
A burning passion to share their wisdom but not give advice.
Confidence and self-esteem to give the best of themselves.

Stargates – The Magic of Images from Heka to the Monas Hieroglyphica
A lecture series dedicated to the material aspects of making magical images
Organised by Luisa Capodieci (Frances A. Yates Long Term Fellow, Warburg Institute)
Giuseppe ARCIMBOLDO, "Astrologie", 1585, Florence, Galerie des Offices (source : WGA).
Stargates – The Magic of Images from Heka to the Monas Hieroglyphica is a lecture series dedicated to the material aspects of making magical images, including the arsenal of objects and media which allow the maker to manipulate the flow of stellar influences. The roots of the question are Egyptian; they lie buried in a passage of the hermetic text, Asclepius, which explains how Egyptian priests "make gods" by shaping images able to attract the souls of the stars. Herbs, stones and aromas "which have an occult virtue of divine efficacity", words, sounds and fumigations are the other ingredients of this magic panoply, which has been discussed and enriched from Antiquity to the Renaissance and beyond.
Considering small portable talismans and large artworks, this lecture series features five leading scholars who offer a broad historical perspective. Combining a wide range of disciplines including archaeology, history, art history, anthropology, philosophy and cultural history, they will discuss both the "making" and the "mechanism" of these stargates, capable of bringing the stars down to earth.
Following a chronological sequence in order to underline the transformations, continuities, and discontinuities from ancient to "modern" practices, this lecture series builds on the legacy of the Warburg Institute scholars D.P. Walker and Frances Yates.

Toyota GR010 Le Mans Hypercar contender revealed
Toyota Gazoo Racing ready to continue WEC winning streak with all-new GR010 Le Mans Hypercar racer
Toyota Gazoo Racing has officially revealed its all-new Le Mans Hypercar class contender, the new GR010. It is the first of this year's new Hypercar class racers to be revealed in detail and represents not just a physical manifestation of Toyota's commitment to endurance racing, but also a preview of the road-going GR Supersport it remains committed to releasing to the public.
As an all-new racer under the Le Mans Supersport regulations its peak power is restricted to the class maximum of 671bhp. How teams have reached this maximum figure though is where the new regulations allow distinction between teams. In Toyota's case its 3.5-litre twin-turbo V6 petrol engine, mounted behind the driver, produces this maximum 671bhp figure, which is then supplemented by a 269bhp electric motor on the front axle, making the GR010 four-wheel drive.
In order to produce no more than its allowed 671bhp at any one time, clever engine management systems modulate the petrol engine's output as the front-mounted electric motor delivers power to the front wheels. When the battery's energy has been depleted, or at speeds of under 75mph where the electric motor is not allowed to be utilised, the petrol engine's full 671bhp is then available.
> Peugeot Hybrid4 500kW Le Mans Hypercar class racer technical details revealed
That V6 engine is not related to any current road-car engine according to Gazoo Racing, and has instead reached that engine capacity given the extra headroom Hypercar class regulations allow in overall weight, keeping the powertrain within a comfortable operating window. The powered electric front axle has been developed in partnership with Japanese automotive supply giants Denso and Aisin.
As a result, compared to Toyota's LMP1 TS050 racer, the new GR010 has 32 percent less power and weighs an extra 162kg overall. This will translate to a four to five second per lap rise in time around standard WEC circuits, and up to ten seconds on Le Mans' Circuit de la Sarthe.
> Toyota GR Yaris 2020 review - a true homologation superstar
Despite changes to the regulations that now don't require manufacturers to create a road-going version of their Le Mans Hypercar racer, Toyota has confirmed that it will continue with the development of its road-going homologation, the GR Supersport. This ironically makes it the second road-going homologation model that Toyota has developed needlessly after a last minute rule change within the motorsport's governing body. A similar fate befell the GR Yaris, who's WRC tenure was cancelled after the WRC rearranged its planned rule changes, making Gazoo Racing's 2021 GR WRC car irrelevant when a new hybrid class is introduced from 2022. The brilliance of the respective road car however doesn't make this a problem for performance car types, mind.
The Toyota GR010 will race against fellow Le Mans Hypercar class rivals from Scuderia Cameron Glickenhaus and ByKolles this year, with Porsche, Peugeot and Audi all confirming entries in the LMDh class from 2022 onwards, which altogether will make for one of the most diverse and competitive fields underpinned by manufacturer funding since the golden ages of endurance racing.

SSI masterplan to reveal site's future after 'approaches from companies all over the world'
Development corporation chief Jonathan Bretherton says investors from around the world had been making inquiries about the future of the SSI site
Mike HughesBusiness writer
The man responsible for the former SSI site says a masterplan will be revealed in September for "a whole load of new jobs".
Jonathan Bretherton is chief executive of the South Tees Development Corporation, the body responsible for the site's future following the devastating closure of the steelworks in late 2015.
He told The Gazette on Wednesday that investors from around the world had been making inquiries about the future of the 800-acre site and the hundreds of acres surrounding it - all of which will feature in the new blueprint.
He said: "We are on track and working to the timescales we planned for. It's a part of my life, and you don't get this sort of job unless you get excited by it all. It is a fantastic opportunity and some of the conversations we have been having with potential investors are very thought-provoking.
"We have had a lot of approaches from companies all over the world over the last six months or so who want to come and talk to us."

"The industrial masterplan is a consultation, but it will be very detailed and will ask some specific questions around the site, and will be very focussed on job creation. It will look forwards rather than back to create a whole load of new jobs. We are still doing a lot of work on it, but it is very firmly focussed on employment.
"My message for the people of Teesside is 'we are on it'. It is a long-term plan and I can't wait to launch the proposals, but we have to stress this is a 10-30 year vision and it will take some time to get that 'oil tanker' moving."
The men and women responsible for overseeing the transformation of the SSI site
"There will be public meetings around mid-to-late September once the plan is out and everyone has had a good chance to have a look at it. There are specific questions we want the public to respond to.
"For instance, we think it is extremely important to support town centres nearby, so we have some ideas about how we might join up to the outside world, particularly Redcar , and we want people to give us their view on that.
"There will be public meetings and exhibitions and we will be publishing the dates and there will be a website launch for people to use. We want to be very open and make sure people are engaged by it all."

The work on the site has been non-stop, with the massive clean-up at the centre of it all, alongside many hours of consultations with nearby industries.
"At the moment there are still months of work ahead of us on the detailed site assessment and we are in negotiation with the various landowners, the Official Receiver and the banks, and those talks are going well, but no-one can say how long that is going to take," said Mr Bretherton.
"That has been a pretty intense part of our work and the masterplan itself is a huge document that has taken up a lot of time, but we are beginning to ink in a lot of the detail. The future of Steel House itself is one of many areas we are investigating and we are doing structural assessments on it at the moment.

Who is Jonathan Bretherton?
"We are very pleased with the way everything is going and we are also particularly happy with the working relationship with the mayor and with other businesses in the area like PD Ports and British Steel.
"The masterplan will be such a huge step forward for the whole operation here, as will be the formation of the corporation itself. It is not like setting up a company at the drop of a hat, it is a statutory body, so there is a lot of procedural activity, which is just about all complete."

Tees Valley Mayor, Ben Houchen, will be chairman of the new development corporation.
He said: "Covering a massive 4,300 acres, the South Tees site is the single biggest regeneration opportunity in this country right now. The new mayoral development corporation, which I will chair, has been handed considerable powers from Whitehall to invest in infrastructure, attract new business, and coordinate land ownership - including through compulsory purchase powers.
"I have already received over 100 enquires from companies from across the globe that are wanting to down roots in the Tees Valley. This is a massive vote of confidence in our area which, if we pull this off, will lead to thousands of good quality jobs being created."

Windows 7 Pushes Microsoft to Record Earnings - InternetNews.
However, Microsoft's outstanding third calendar quarter was not limited to just Windows sales. There were other factors, from product sales to running the corporate ship. Datamation has all the facts and figures.
Exceptionally strong sales of Windows 7 helped drive Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT) to another record quarterly performance, company executives said today.
For the third quarter of Microsoft's fiscal 2010, ending March 31, the company turned in revenues of $14.50 billion, up 6 percent from the same period a year ago, while earnings per share (EPS) for the quarter came in at $0.45, a gain of 36 percent.
Analysts polled by Thomson Financial in advance of the announcement had expected Microsoft to turn in revenues of $14.38 billion and EPS of $0.42 for the quarter.

Chief Justice Orders Delay in House Fight for Trump Records
November 18, 2019 by Dan McCue
Chief Justice John Roberts
WASHINGTON — Chief Justice John Roberts on Monday imposed an indefinite delay in the House of Representatives' demand for President Donald Trump's financial records.
Roberts' order Monday provides no hint about how the Supreme Court ultimately will resolve the dispute.
It was handed down just hours after the general counsel for the House of Representatives told the court that congressional investigators would agree to a 10-day pause in their effort to see President Donald Trump's financial records.
Attorney Douglas Letter told the court the House opposes any lengthy delay in obtaining the records, but that 10 days would be enough time to allow all sides to file legal briefs on the matter.
In an emergency filing on Friday, lawyers for the president asked the justices to block the enforcement of a subpoena issued by a House committee to Trump's accountants.
The request came after the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit upheld a subpoena for Trump's financial records issued by House Democrats to Trump's accounting firm, Mazars.
In the wake of that decision, Rep. Carolyn B. Maloney, D-N.Y., the acting chairwoman of the Committee on Oversight and Reform, said, "this is another victory for the fundamental principles of the rule of law and separation of powers."
"Congress has a constitutional duty to conduct oversight of the executive branch, and no one is above the law—not the President, and certainly not his private companies," Maloney continued. "It has now been seven months since the Oversight Committee asked for these records. It is time for the President to let us do our job and stop blocking Mazars from complying with the Committee's lawful subpoena."
The subpoena at the center of the dispute came from the Oversight and Reform Committee, which wants to review Trump's financial records as part of its investigation into the adequacy of current government ethics laws.
The president is seeking to bar Mazars from turning over the documents, arguing that the subpoena goes beyond Congress' authority because it does not serve a legitimate legislative purpose.
The Supreme Court has a separate pending request from Trump to block a subpoena from a New York prosecutor for Trump's tax returns.
On Thursday, the U.S. 2nd Circuit Court of Appeals ordered the president to provide New York prosecutors with his tax returns.
Trump's requests went to Chief Justice John Roberts, who handles emergency requests from the D.C. Circuit. Roberts can act on the request alone, but he will almost certainly refer it to the full court.
As of early Monday afternoon, neither Roberts nor the court took any action on the requests.

Most of the people would think deeply if they needed to have a monthly or yearly repair for their concrete kind of roof. Most of the professionals would say that is not necessarily need a repair or to worry too much about this kind of matter. Concrete kind of roofing would give you a good and satisfying way of living as it not prone to damage and even to cracking. There would be an instance that you would repair it because of a very minor issue or problem up there. Part of it also is the maintenance that you should give to your roof so that it would perfectly do its duty to maintain a long last time service. Based on Roofers Columbia sc, the only thing that people need to put in their mind when they are having a concrete type is the moisture which needs to be retain. Below are some of the many things that people should think about when they are doing a repair or planning to have a maintenance and fix something on their concrete roof.
House owners would tend to complain about the leakage in water that is very common to roofs like concrete and even flat type. For Flat roof, the best way to stop the leak or the water from going in is to use a sealant or by using a cement that is waterproof. The same thing goes to your concrete roof. In order to prevent this one from happening especially during rainy weather or if your place is more prone to heavy rains, you need to apply and secure a waterproof material there. All you have to do is the clean all the part of the roof with the use of the pressure washer. Apply entirely the cement that is being used for roof and then you may coat it would a good quality of prime. If everything is set and dry, you may finally secure the elastomeric kind of sealant to the part that you can see are cracking. Try to inspect as well all the areas and hidden parts.
Another way to fix your problem under this matter is to replace with a new one. In this way, you could correct the position as well of the tiles. Now, if there is still a problem even you replaced this one already. Maybe, you can consider having a new kind of roof or to change it entirely.
You may give time to inspect all the areas and parts of the concrete roof. It will save you from spending too much money for the repair and to the possible labor that you need to pay. Don't focus one leak only, try to check every hidden area.
If you are not good at doing this kind of thing, then you can reach and call for an expert or professional service repairman to check everything. In this way, you would feel better and they can explain to you the problem properly and give some suggestion on how they are going to fix it.


Demonstrators join San Francisco's version of the Women's March on Jan. 21, a show of solidarity the day after Donald Trump was inaugurated president.
Regarding "Our elected leaders need to take a stand, not a knee" (Insight, Jan. 22): Those California congressional leaders who boycotted Donald Trump's inauguration are not, as columnist Dan Schnur characterizes them, "frightened people." Rather, they chose to signal to their colleagues and constituents that this particular transition of presidential power was not normal.
They reminded us that a leader who rises to power by denigrating others and praising dictators is not acceptable. They sent a message to President Trump that true patriotism involves more than empty slogans. This boycott did not make Rep. Jared Huffman the "Colin Kaepernick of California politics." Rather, it reminded Americans that the most effective way to counter someone who traffics in racism, sexism and xenophobia is through protest.
The points Dan Schnur makes would be valid for any other inaugural in our history. This is different. A president has just been inaugurated who rode to victory on the basis of lies, bigotry, hate, homophobia, sexism and white supremacy. He routinely uses the tactics of dictators throughout history (see Robert Reich's "Heed the 15 warning signs that a tyrant is taking over," Insight, Jan. 15) to try to silence a free press and his other potential critics.
He is unfit by any measure to be president, and I applaud the members of Congress who chose to reject this man rather than support the fantasy that this is a "normal" transfer of power. Calling attention to how little support he actually has is one way to stop the damage he does to our democracy. President Trump is the one who divides our nation, not Rep. Jared Huffman. And boycotting is not running away, it is making a statement.
The Women's March was a marvelous and inspiring event. I want to thank the person who mentioned the idea on Facebook that took off around the world. It has shown the power of the people who love what our country stands for: government of, by and for the people, not the rich.
I want to thank the Walnut Creek Police Department for their service to the Women's March on Jan. 21. The original plan restricted marchers to the sidewalks, and no provision was to be made for closing streets. However, so many people showed up that the march did spill out into the street. The police responded by closing some streets and redirecting traffic. After the march, my wife went up to some officers to shake hands and to thank them for their assistance and they seemed quite happy to have helped. Street closures and traffic control may be a little thing, but, as I've thought about that day, I do believe that the police officers justified the title public servants and did protect and serve American citizens as they exercised their constitutional rights.
It was so good to see the police and demonstrators working together and not against each other. That's just one more good thing to come out of the Women's March. To all the officers of the Walnut Creek Police Department, many thanks for your presence and your work.
With everything surrounding the election of the new president, Joe Mathews' article about "having a Trump in his closet" made me howl. I so needed that laughter, and I want to thank him for taking the doom and gloom away.
Regarding "Buffett's old proposal to end trade wars remains relevant" (Insight, Jan. 22): As is often repeated, but, in our world of politics, rarely applied, "You are unlikely to solve a problem which you have not stated." Daniel J.B. Mitchell wants to apply a government bureaucracy to a symptom. Give me a break! The problem is that much of American labor is not competitive with automation or foreign laborers. Failing to find a solution for that leads to symptoms such as Mitchell wants to avoid.
The Orwellian experience continues where up is down and left is right. The same guy who claimed to end the birther controversy when in fact he promulgated it is now saying that the media are the ones doubting the intelligence community, not him despite all evidence to the contrary. The question now is how will we move forward and whether the media will be cowed by the new administration's strong-arm tactics.


The merits of Off White Vapormax are well-constructed, seamless designing, sock-like fitting inside upper and durable outsole. The demerits of the version indicate that it is sock-liner brings restraining look. This version is not as breathable as the other shoes can be purchased in the same market niche.
Broadly speaking, the Off White Air Jordan 1 comes out as a stunning shoe if you are looking for any minimalist-fashion running without negotiating considering the comfort and cushioning. However, they would bring some that's getting applied to handle in both fitting and also purpose. The Nike free arrives as a recurrent recommended one. It was breaking into your communal running awareness in the course of 2004. Questionably, there was the development of the plainness along about it. Since, the line has spread all through the diverse models while catering to diverse jogging fashions and training pieces. The Nike 3. 0 arrives amongst the less-cushioned inside the free series. It is introducing a good unmatched fashion and sketching that allows an active range of motion over any surface as well as under any climatic problems.
the impression of Off White Air Force 1, the users were knowledgeable about the Nike Free experience and in addition they were keen to compare with 3. 0. The elements belonging to the fitting and riding stayed inside the same. However, the shoe had altered considerably when the users started wearing them during 2010. The checkered pattern from the outsole was entirely modified while appending the contoured design from the arch and heel. Your midsole brought adequate padding. It was to be expected.
The fitting and feeling of Off White Nike Vapormax offered the most severe alterations. The 3. 0 started to be still quite contented.

Setareh Eskandari (; also Romanized as "Setāreh Eskandari", ; born June 15, 1974) is an Iranian stage, movie, and TV actress. She is mostly known for her parts in TV series since 1994, especially the TV series Narges, where she took the place of Poupak Goldareh as "Narges" after the latter's unexpected death.
She has twice won the best actress award at Fajr International Theater Festival for her parts in the plays Unfortunate People's Shaky Happiness (2000) and Co-aspiration (2014).

Life and career
Setareh Eskandari was born in 1974 in Torbat-e Heydarieh, Razavi Khorasan Province, northeastern Iran. A sophomore in English translation, she dropped out to pursue her acting career, and joined the students of The Faculty of Fine Arts in 1993. Eskandari appeared in students' festivals for about six years, getting nominated for an award in 1995 for her part in the play Legend and two years later at Fajr International Theater Festival for her part in the play Earth's Last Heroes.
Her movies include The Visitor to Rey (2000), Parya's Story (2010), Yousef (2010), Unplanned (2013), The Unwished (2016).

Eskandari's debut as a professional stage actor was the play The Gold-Toothed (1999), directed by Davoud Mirbagheri, while she started playing in the stage group "Dey" under the management of Ali Rafiei, as well as taking parts on TV and in movies. Her debut as a movie actor was Rival of the Heart (1996), directed by Abdorreza Ganji.

She won Best Actress Award at the Fajr Theater Festival in 2001 for The Joy of Influencing the Lives of the Unfortunate.

Eskandari starred in the series The Gradual Death of a Dream (2006), Until Morning (2006), Factor 8 (2008) and Passion to Fly (2011).

Having directed two plays on TV, Eskandari has been also the producer of a number of plays, including The House of Bernarda Alba, directed by Ali Rafiei.

A spooky, skull-shaped "death comet" to fly by Earth after Halloween
News Astronomy
Eben Diskin
A creepy, skull-shaped asteroid will fly past Earth on November 11th and it's not Voldemort's Dark Mark, or a Halloween hoax.
The asteroid was first spotted on October 31st, 2015, leading NASA to name it the "Great Pumpkin" asteroid. When it was first seen, it passed 300,000 miles from Earth, but this year it's a little farther at 25 million miles. Unfortunately, given its distance and small diameter (around 2,000 feet) the "Great Pumpkin asteroid," or "death comet," can't be seen with the naked eye, so take out your telescope.
The first recorded images of the asteroid resembled a human skull, though that has been somewhat refuted by newer images. Vishnu Reddy, professor of planetary sciences at the University of Arizona's Lunar and Planetary Lab, told NBC News MACH in an email, "I don't know why it's called a 'death comet'…there is no scientific basis for such a term. Maybe it is related to the time of the flyby."
Due to its size and closeness to Earth — and true to its "death comet" reputation — the asteroid has been classified as potentially dangerous. However, astronomers do not believe we're in any immediate danger of being struck. The asteroid won't come anywhere near Earth until 2088, when it will approach within 5.4 million miles.
Check out this video from NASA to learn more about the asteroid.

'Can I migrate?' is a question that we at WTT often raise on behalf of fish. In most instances, this question is associated with two physical factors. One is whether there is sufficient water in the river for fish to move through; a problem exacerbated in the southern parts of the UK by abstraction pressures. The other is whether there are any barriers or obstacles to free fish passage - and there are usually plenty! But 'Should I migrate or not?' is an interesting one that does not get asked very often. Luckily I know someone who does ask such questions! With great pleasure, I hand over to Kim Birnie-Gauvin from the National Institute for Aquatic Resources at the Technical University of Denmark who is conducting her PhD research within the AMBER project.
Physiology & partial migration: from the free radical theory of ageing to residancy and migration in brown trout....

Where in the sea are sea trout?
As anglers, we often struggle to find fish in a stream, river or lake / loch, and we're generally seeking the bigger fish! Keeping track of the vulnerable juvenile life-stages is even more tricky, and then imagine translocating that problem to the sea.... OK, so with advances in acoustic telemetry, the boffins have a few tricks up their sleeves and are making some headway but the logistics of tracking in such a potentially vast environment are nonetheless challenging. Isabel Moore from the Scottish Centre for Ecology & The Natural Enviornment has risen to that challenge during her PhD and outlines one aspect below.
The brown trout is a remarkably diverse species; it can utilise multiple life-history strategies, ranging from freshwater residency through to migration into marine environments for a period of time before returning to freshwater to reproduce (i.e. anadromous sea trout). Unfortunately, this iconic species has been faced with significant population declines in recent decades across the UK and other parts of the world. A significant portion of the anadromous population decline is thought to occur in marine environments. However, the sheer areal extent of habitats utilised by sea trout makes the monitoring of their movements very difficult, leaving many unanswered questions about the types of challenges that sea trout face and how those challenges might affect the their survival rates. Both environmental (i.e. predation, climate change, etc.) and anthropogenic influences (i.e. overfishing, aquaculture, etc.) have been identified as potential sources of increased mortality, but further research is required to determine the effect of each on wild sea trout.

Tags under trees tell a tale
In science, new questions are always arising from serendipitous discoveries. Angus Lothian tells us of some interesting data on fish predation that has come to light as a part of his PhD project at Durham University, assessing trout behaviour at fish passes.
Every year, Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) and sea trout (Salmo trutta) undertake an upstream migration in autumn. People watch these fish 'heavy-weights' leap, or at least attempt to, over barriers after having already completed maybe tens of miles on their journey to and from sea. Such a migration allows the fish to use rich marine feeding areas to grow larger than they might achieve by staying in freshwater, thus increasing their fecundity or egg production for when they return to their natal rivers. But there are trade-offs. The migration between freshwater and saltwater is filled with risk, resulting in large annual mortality affecting fish populations. For example, for my MRes, I studied the emigration of salmon smolts from rivers, and their behaviour strongly reflected predator avoidance tactics.
Man-made barriers, obstacles, call them what you will, are commonplace along our waterways as we have (typically) in the past tried to harness or control the flow of water for our own use. Some of these installations were incredibly insensitive to the local and more widely spread ecology and physical processes in rivers and streams, not just the fish that might want free passage both up and downstream at all life stages, and in all seasons.
I recently spent an afternoon with Mike Forty, a PhD student registered at Durham University, and based with the Ribble Rivers Trust. His work, using telemetry to assess the efficiency with which fish can pass obstacles, has been enlightening, and some of the statistics he can rattle off are mind-boggling. His work was featured in the presentation that Jack Spees (Director of RRT) gave at our recent WTT Gathering and captured on video here. For example, the low cost baffle system that was installed on a previously almost impassable weir on Swanside Beck (picture to right) can now be ascended in 23 seconds (according to one sea trout), and several resident brown trout have been up and down it numerous times!

Q: problem with php script in 1and 1 hosting I have a problem.
I have wrote an upload form on my html page.  Then created an upload php file.  I added both to my webserver 1 and 1. when clicking on the script on the live webpage - it starts uploading, however the domain name/upload.php file sits there with nothing there (blank) when i check the destination folder nothing is there.
any gurus willing to help with this - i'm baffled - its my first time dabbling with php?

A: Have you checked that your <form> tag has enctype="multipart/form-data"?
Posting your source code would help you get better answers.
Also, in upload.php, try doing print_r($_FILES); to output the list of files.

A: Question is kind of vague, but most of the time these problems occur because of wrong folder permissions.
Try to chmod 666 on the folder you are writing to.

A: Try some more error-checking. Have a look at this IBM tutorial on Debugging techniques for PHP programmers. Some of the suggestions work only in an IDE, but there is a good deal on debugging using print statements (simple, yet effective).

Q: equivalence between decltype and auto Since auto and decltype are both used to infer the types. I thought
they would be same.
However, the answer to this question suggests otherwise.
Still I think they cannot be entirely different.
I can think of a simple example where the type of i will be same in both the following cases.
auto i = 10; and decltype(10) i = 10;

So what are the possible situations where auto and decltype would behave equivalently.

A: auto behaves exactly the same as template argument deduction, meaning if you don't specify a reference to it, you don't get one. decltype is just the type of an expression and as such takes references into account:
#include <type_traits>

int& get_i(){ static int i = 5; return i; }

int main(){
  auto i1 = get_i(); // copy
  decltype(get_i()) i2 = get_i(); // reference
  static_assert(std::is_same<decltype(i1), int>::value, "wut");
  static_assert(std::is_same<decltype(i2), int&>::value, "huh");
}
