Two twin flames feel intense vibrations, even if they're not together. They have a soul to soul connection that synchronises their minds, and consequently, amplifies their spiritual energies.
At least, one of the twin flames is spiritually evolved and has developed psychic abilities. They can perceive the other twin flame's thoughts and feelings, regardless of the distance separating them.
These telepathic skills stem from spiritual enlightenment. Spiritual evolution makes one of the twin flames more psychologically attuned.
One of the twin flames, is, however, spiritually immature, and lacks the abilities to connect with their fated counterpart.
Sometimes, they feel disconnected due to an existential crisis that continually unsettles their life, and leads them astray.
These contrasting spiritual energies give rise to the "twin flame-runner-chaser dynamic".
The twin flame that is spiritually immature flees from the love of their counterpart, whereas, the other twin flame chases them ― persistently trying to reunite with them.
The twin flame runner often resorts to drugs or other ineffective coping mechanisms.
The runners feign happiness and wear a mask out in the open, to conceal their emotional vulnerabilities.
Deep down, their souls are shattered, aimless, and lost. This deteriorating condition gives rise to an inconsistent and highly unstable vibration.
This instability in vibration makes them sway away from themselves and their twin flame. Instead of weathering storms themselves, they seek help from their self-ego and end up exacerbating the situation.
The twin flames who have found their higher selves should approach the spiritually immature counterpart carefully.
They should try to understand the runner's plight.
The runners are used to living a roughed up life. They become immune to love. They retreat to the darkest corners of their minds, because of their scarred past that haunts them daily.
Making them realise that they also deserve love is an uphill task and requires perseverance and patience.
If you are dwelling in sorrow and gloom, your vibrations will plummet, and the connection between you and your twin flame will slowly diminish.
You will no longer be able to connect with them telekinetically. Once you turn into a runner, you will let your self-ego rule over your heart, which will, in turn, decrease the chances of your rehabilitation.
To raise your vibrations, you must let go of your guilt, fears, insecurities, heartaches, scars.
You must learn to live with your flaws and imperfections. Hatred spreads like wildfire and destroys your soul.
A twin flame must face their fears and insecurities on their own. They should not ignore their emotional and spiritual problems, because, doing so, would make matters worse for them.
As long as the twin flames don't vibrate at the same spiritual levels, they will not be able to find harmony in each other's company. Conflicts will disfigure their relationship, and sway them away from each other.
Twin flame vibration is a very sensitive topic and requires profound understanding.
The twin flame experience is a subjective one. One must find his ways of filling his soul with love and light to become a worthy twin flame.

Day 74. I have finished reading Charlotte's Web to Bug on Sunday and so we were very excited to pick out a new book. I laid her choices out for her and she grabbed Jacob Two Two & The High Seas. I love buying children's chapter books - all of these were purchased in a thrift store, except for Jacob Two Two and Alice in Wonderland - which were gifts.
Day 75. I have been very pleased with the artwork that we have been finding homes for on our walls. I feel like this apartment has way more personality than any of our homes before. Isn't the chalkboard the cutest?
Day 76. Our family has really gotten into smoothies lately, Bug included. Actually I think Bug loves them more than I do, I am sure she could drink them all day, every day. Especially the spinach smoothies.
Day 77. Bug is really into lavender bubble baths with all of her bath toys accessible to her. She loves to make big splashes with her hands and pretend to drink out of her tea cup (not shown in this picture).
Day 78. I love this little project I did for Bug's room. I think it adds so much to her little space. Its a little more suited for a little toddler lady. You can check out the DIY here.
Day 79. Happy first day of Spring, hey? Although I don't mind this bit of snow. The last few weeks have reminded me of the joy of Spring, I know its going to come soon enough.
Day 80. Sometimes yarn gets tangled. It happens when I start too many projects at once and then throw them all together in one bag. Silly of me, I know, I am just thankful I have a husband who doesn't mind untangling.
I hope your week has been amazing. Thank you so much for reading.

It's as though the old adage 'it's what's inside that counts' somehow missed the food service industry. Blemishes of any description render an otherwise delicious ingredient to the scrap pile, adding to the 250,000 tonnes of food waste from restaurants and cafes that ends up in landfill every year in Australia.
However, in recent years, a new movement is underway: the 'Ugly Food Movement'. Tackling the issue of wastage and sustainability head on, the ugly food movement looks to switch up the view of what food should look like, for both the chef and the consumer.
In this blog, we'll look at the major players in the fight against food wastage, the impact on the modern hospitality industry, and how you can get involved.
In 2014, the European Union set about scrapping the rules that prevented the sale of oddly-sized or misshapen fruit and vegetables. Supermarkets across Europe were quick to respond, with various companies going viral for their embrace of 'ugly' produce. The movement was embraced by chains across the world: Tesco, Walmart, Loblaws, and even Jamie Oliver have jumped on board.
Here in Australia, we were also among the first to get involved. In 2014, Australia's largest supermarket retailer, Woolworths released its 'Odd Bunch' campaign. At the same time NSW food retailer Harris Farms launched its 'imperfect picks' range.
Whilst consumers were enthusiastic in buying wonky food for their home cooking, the expectation for perfect food from a restaurant still existed. In the kitchen, chefs and venue managers were yet to be convinced that imperfect produce was acceptable – after all, that's exactly what they were primed to look for from their suppliers.
Wastage in the kitchen extends beyond just rejecting blemished food; it also comes down to lack of imagination to make good use of the whole ingredient – even the ugly parts.
"[Hospitality] is an incredibly wasteful industry," said Tom Kime, executive chef of Goodtime Hospitality Group.
Outside of the professional foodservice industry, lesser-used ingredient like fruit skins, stalks, seeds, cores, and other parts usually considered garbage are being used in new and imaginative ways. This is yet to take off in commercial kitchens.
"While the movement is unquestionably gaining ground, getting the mainstream on board remains a serious challenge," writes Time magazine.
It is estimated that a third of all the food produced in the world is never consumed, with the total cost of food waste being as high as US$400 billion a year! 'Dumpster diving' has become a key indication of the perfectly usable produce that is thrown away daily by our local restaurants and supermarkets. So much so, that a new dietary preference has been coined: 'freegan', where you source all of your food from the commercial bins out the back of restaurants.
This is simply not sustainable. If our local hospitality industry made a concerted effort to embrace the ugly food movement, the ripple effects could be dramatic.
The ugly food movement has more benefits than you may consider at first glance. Given that 'ugly' produce would usually be rejected by you as the business owner, it would normally then be transported back to either a market or on to a disposal unit.
These transport costs would be cut, as ugly produce can be accepted and either used or sold at a lower price point. These savings will be passed on to you, as the owner, and eventually onto your customers as well.
How can you get involved with improving wastage in your kitchen? Get on board with the ugly food movement! A simple place to start is having a meeting with your supplier. They will be only too happy to discuss a discount to supply you with 'ugly' produce – after all, they are wanting to get rid of it too!
Sit down with your chef, and review your menu. What items can you remove that require 'perfect' produce? Or, what items can you create that will make use of the ugly items? You will be surprised with a little thought and creativity what kind of savings you can make.
The ugly food movement may seem kitsch and cute, but beneath the marketing campaigns lies a far more serious message. The amount of food being wasted from our country's commercial kitchens is an epidemic that needs to be stopped. With climate change dramatically affecting our farming capacity, we must all learn to be resourceful with how we cook, and how we eat.
Samantha and Troy Bottegal opened their very first Japanese-European fusion eatery, Peko Peko in 2004….

Movie Review: SHERLOCK HOLMES - GAME OF SHADOWS Is Bad, My Dear Watson
Guy Ritchie and Robert Downey Jr return to the world's greatest detective and try to make him Indiana Jones.
By Devin Faraci Dec. 12, 2011
There are minor spoilers ahead, especially for those familiar with Arthur Conan Doyle's Holmes stories.
Guy Ritchie's Sherlock Holmes butted right up against the boundaries of revisionism, using little-known aspects of the Holmes canon (his baritsu skills, for instance) to create a rollicking adventure starring the world's greatest detective. There was a hint of freshness to the film, and the chemistry between Robert Downey Jr's Holmes and Jude Law's Watson bouyed up a CG-heavy bunch of silliness.
Now the gang is back together, but the touches that made the first film a surprise seem to have disappeared. The Holmes/Watson relationship is now shrill (probably because Hollywood Blockbuster Screenwriting for Hacks 101 says they have to have a 'journey'), the facade of a mystery story has been chucked for a nation-hopping action adventure, and the volume has been turned up to 12, starting with a gibbering, strung out Holmes and never quite simmering down.
Oh, and it plays with the deep Holmes mythology - when, in the first act Mycroft Holmes (Sherlock's brother, a spy, and a real character from the stories) says he's going to a peace conference in Reichenbach, Switzerland, even casual Holmes fans will know what that bodes.
Game of Shadows opens after most of the canon Holmes stories have taken place, with Watson moved out and about to be married. Holmes has descended into a cocaine mania focusing on Moriarty, with whom he has already crossed wits on many cases. But this film has little patience for building a mystery about Moriarty's deeds - right from the opening narration we know that the Napoleon of Crime has been behind a series of bombings intended to send Europe into World War I a decade early. And so from the start there's no throughline of discovery, simply a slack chase of Moriarty as he goes on a European book tour/attempts to bring about the end of Western Civilization (seriously. He's multitasking).
To get some element of mystery, the movie has Holmes run into a gypsy whose brother is implicated in some aspect of Moriarty's scheme. She is a blank, pointless character who tags around for the remainder of the movie for no good reason; original Lisbeth Salander Noomi Rapace plays the gypsy woman with a dense blankness, refusing to give the character any spark of life. She doesn't even come into play as a potential love interest, nor does she have any real particular talents that make her integral to the story. They just needed a girl for the trailer, I guess.
Jared Harris, aka Lane Pryce from Mad Men, is Moriarty. What seemed like an inspired bit of casting ends up failing in the face of an unstoppable force: Robert Downey Jr's need to consume every inch of the frame like an angry sun going supernova. Harris' Moriarty is a buttoned down, seemingly normal guy hiding an interior of sheer madness - ie, the exact opposite of Downey's outwardly wacky, inwardly totally rational Holmes - and I imagine that contrast worked on paper. In the film it means that Harris is crushed under Downey's manic energy and charisma.
It turns out that the film has an actor who would have made a great Moriarty opposite Downey - Stephen Fry, who plays Mycroft (and who has an extensive nude scene that honestly pushes the boundaries of the PG-13). Fry has an expansive personality and presence that refuses to be bowed in his scenes with Downey, and while they aren't a great physical match - Fry towers over the hero - that energy is what the villain needed. Instead Moriarty sort of fades into the woodwork.
What's worse is that the script shortchanges Moriarty big time. There's one great scene where we see how Moriarty has outwitted Holmes, but there's no feeling of mental cat and mouse, which should be the whole crux of the film. The final confrontation between the two contains a bunch of random chess dialogue ("Rook to King's pawn. Mate!"), but that feels more like a dumb person's idea of how these two smart guys would interact than anything real. It's disappointing when Moriarty's method for getting information out of Holmes is sticking a huge meathook in his shoulder and torturing him. Really, that's the best he could come up with? Something that blunt and ham handed? Most Bond villains - which is what Moriarty has been turned into - would scoff at that.
The action quotient feels amped up this time, and Guy Ritchie just lets loose stylistically, never worrying about what any of his stylistic tics should MEAN. There's a scene where our heroes escape from the bad guys in the woods, pursued by gunmen and giant cannons, that's played out in a hyper bullet-time/Zack Snyder in the K-hole style. It looks cool, but it doesn't mean anything, coming across just as an effect that Ritchie liked. The sequence feels like a perfume commercial - Exploseeve, a new fragrance by Guy Ritchie. It looks cool but has no visceral feeling or impact.
This time out Downey and Law are reduced to just being a bickering couple, the Lockhorns of the Victorian mystery world. It's tiring, and it's not fun. The film has some strong set pieces, but it has nothing between them. This is where the Holmes/Watson stuff saved the day in the first film, smoothing over the plot mechanics that got the characters from set piece to set piece. This film is trying really hard to be an Indiana Jones movie, so they just slide from set piece to set piece, leaving little for Holmes and Watson to do together but have Jude Law play varying shades of exasperated. This is probably the biggest disappointment of the movie; I could maybe make an argument that turning Holmes into a 30s pulp spy is acknowledging the descendents of Arthur Conan Doyle's original serialized stories, but why make that argument if the movie you're arguing about isn't that much fun?
The script, by Michele Mulroney and Kieran Mulroney, is predicated on one weird concept - one that is a spoiler, but if you instantly understood what Reichenbach means for Holmes, you already know what the concept is. To be unspoilery for the layman, this film is set very near the end of the Holmes/Moriarty conflict; when the film opens the two geniuses have been sparring for some time. In cinematic terms it's weird because it feels like a second movie is missing, like this is the end of the Moriarty trilogy. We missed the point when the shadowy figure in the first film became a full-fledged character, and instead we're left with the end game of the rivalry. I don't know if better writing for Moriarty would have helped, of if casting someone with more verve than Harris would have been the answer, but this movie tells of a seminal moment in Holmes lore, yet it never feels as epic as it needs to be.
Game of Shadows is a tired sequel, a movie that doesn't quite understand what worked in the first film. It seemed like Robert Downey Jr had a chance to forge an interesting chapter in the history of Holmes adaptations, but now it looks like he's going to be an asterix while the BBC modern take, starring Benedict Cumberbatch, will probably be the defining Holmes of our time.

Here's How Much Teresa Giudice Is Really Worth
Daniel Zuchnik/Getty Images
By Gillian Walters/Updated: April 6, 2020 1:55 pm EST
Real Housewives of New Jersey star Teresa Giudice has experienced many low points in recent years, including the death of her beloved mom, Antonia Gorga, in 2017, followed by the loss of her dad, Giacinto Gorga, on April 3, 2020. The mom-of-four also served prison time in 2015 for fraud charges, while her estranged husband, Joe Giudice, was deported to Italy in October 2019 after serving his own prison sentence.
These incidents are a lot for one person to handle, especially when financial problems are also involved. This was the unfortunate case for Teresa, who filed for bankruptcy in 2009 and was ordered to pay back $414,588 in restitution to the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). Although the New Jersey native returned to Bravo post-prison and has since released two popular books, there are still questions concerning the health of her finances.
So has Teresa managed to bump her net worth back up? We reveal how much she's really worth.

Despite Teresa Giudice successfully paying back the IRS and avoiding foreclosure on her New Jersey mansion, she is reportedly carrying around a debt of $11 million, per Celebrity Net Worth. The unfortunate figure might be linked to Teresa and Joe Giudice's credit card debt, which as of June 2010, included "nearly $20,000 on credit cards for Bloomingdales, Nordstrom, and Neiman Marcus," and $104,000 in debt on "at least eight credit cards," per The New York Post.
Teresa might be in a financial pickle, but it doesn't mean she's cutting back on her expensive lifestyle. "If you see my vanity, I have so much makeup," she told Glamour about forking over $22,000 on makeup and beauty treatments. "Like, you don't even know, I have so much makeup."
The reality star's makeup obsession aside, it sounds like her bank account is on an upswing all things considered. That's because she reportedly earns $62,000 per episode of Real Housewives of New Jersey, according to Radar Online. Not too shabby.
Teresa Giudice shouldered a lot of responsibility

During Joe Giudice's time spent in prison and at an ICE detainment center, Teresa Giudice was responsible for handling her family's bills. Teresa worked harder than ever as a result, and she expressed feeling guilty about losing time at home with her daughters. "You know what Milania did say the other day, which made me feel really bad?'" the reality star recalled during an episode of Real Housewives of New Jersey (via People). "Milania's like, 'Mom, I don't care about money. I want how it used to be.'" She added, "It's sad. I worry every day about my kids ... My daughter wants me home every single night and it's like, 'You know, I work.'"
Making matters even tougher for Teresa? She chose to help Joe fight his costly deportation case. "Like, I should be much further with all my businesses. Like, I built up a lot," she explained. "And then everything came crashing down because of the legal stuff."
Now that Joe has seemingly accepted he won't ever return to the United States permanently, perhaps Teresa can abandon the fight to bring him home. Lawyer fees can be pricey, after all.
Teresa Giudice's brother was concerned about her finances
Although many fans found Teresa Giudice's crusade to help bring home Joe Giudice admirable, others were skeptical of her decision. This included her brother, Joe Gorga, who confronted Teresa about the issue during an episode of Real Housewives of New Jersey. "Let me ask a serious question here — why continue to fight? You're burying yourself financially," he asked in the scene (via Page Six). "I know, I know. It's crazy. It's just, his daughters want him to fight," Teresa explained, to which Joe replied, "Yeah, but when there's no money, it's that much harder. You know that, right?" He continued, "For your future, for your daughters, for your everything to keep going, you have to think now as a businessperson, that he's not coming home."
In a confessional after the conversation, Teresa admitted feeling torn about her brother's suggestion. "I understand what my brother's saying, but I've been through financial strain before," she said. "I've had to pay back taxes. I've had to pay off all our debts. So, how can I put a price tag on our daughters having their daddy home?"
Fortunately, it appears Teresa has found a solution in sending her daughters to visit Joe in Italy every so often. We're not mathematicians over here, but we imagine plane tickets are cheaper than an ongoing legal battle.

Contaminant Regulation, Where Are We Now?
Posted: Thursday, December 16th, 2010 in 2010, December, Shannon P. Murphy, Spotlight, Writer
Lead with lead
Focusing on contaminant regulations, in general and recently, lead has been king, which brings up the topic of HR 5320 (www.govtrack.us/congress/bill.xpd?bill=h111-5320). Effectively, it's a revision to the Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA). It is important to note, however, that buried within the confines of this bill is a motion to mandate on a national level the new lead laws that were birthed in California Law AB-1953. Specifically, HR 5320 mandates that the "weighted average of 0.25 percent lead when used with respect to the wetted surfaces of pipes, pipe fittings, plumbing fittings, and fixtures" be implemented on a federal level.
The intent is there: lead is bad and it is easy to understand why there would be new laws wanting to get it out of plumbing systems entirely. The rule, however, is not as ironclad as I believe the authors would like it to be, as a small faucet made of higher lead-content brass could technically pass this requirement today, if sufficient lengths of tubing were to be attached to the product prior to sale. I prefer text that is currently in the SDWA that indicates maximum lead content of brass that is being used itself, as opposed to weighted content of a product. Lead content of brass can be confirmed through ASTM standards. Overall weighted content of a product requires in-depth product evaluation, and depending upon how interpreted, lead analysis may be required on all plastic and rubber parts of a system, as well as the metal ones. This leans more toward a certification body evaluating the product, which adds cost to a product through the need to have each wetted item on the bill of material reviewed, tested and each system listed annually as compliant to the new lead regulation levels. This is an important differentiation to understand. Unlike the NSF standards, which allow extraction testing on a complete system where one extraction test result of that system is reviewed for compliance, this new law requires that each component be tested for lead content. If you have a product like an RO, which can have over 40 different wetted components, the cost for compliance testing can get very high, as each component needs to be reviewed and possibly tested. Keep a close eye on this one, especially for any new associated bills that mandate certification to this standard on a federal level. Sound familiar?
Who enforces these regulations anyway?
Regulations and the act of enforcement are ever changing, frequently surprising activities that have many faces and paths that seem never quite the same twice. A perfect example of this occurred here, in our new facility. The office and production location were initially a shell of a building, which required a complete design and build out. As with most moving projects, there were last-minute patches and bugs that were being addressed while settling in. Walking through the new facility, I noticed one of the interior finishing workers prying off the men and women signs attached to the wall by the restrooms. I asked him why and was surprised to hear that the inspector tagged them as a violation. Upon measuring the placards, it was noted that they were three-quarters of an inch too high and were red-tagged (to be fixed) to the proper regulatory code height before final approval. The worker was carefully trying to remove the signs from the wall; however, in the process, both signs were destroyed and the wall damaged. This seemingly unnoticeable three-quarters of an inch then required the wall to be cleaned, patched, resurfaced and painted and new signs had to be purchased. Additional trips (cost) by the construction crew—as well as the inspectors—were required in order to gain final approval; additional cost and time for seemingly little added value.
On January 22, 2001, US EPA adopted a new standard for arsenic in drinking water at 10 ppb, replacing the old standard of 50 ppb. Subsequently, there was significant buzz regarding this new regulatory level. Seminars packed with professionals and specialists from numerous medical and health boards were held, all reinforcing the significant health benefits for reducing regulated arsenic levels to 10 ppb. Arsenic had been deemed a significant carcinogen on its own, as well as a significant co-carcinogen for other factors in life, such as smoking. There were surprising revelations about ingestion of arsenic related to increase in lung cancer, which departed from any other type of consumed (but not inhaled) product in the environment. The science and specialists mandated a swift and absolute reduction rule for arsenic in the SDWA. Following a year of review and expert analysis from multiple sources, the rule became effective on February 22, 2002, with an implementation date of January 23, 2006. It was determined that a five-year allowance (from the date the rule was first adopted) would be put into place in order to provide adequate time for the drinking water industry to develop and provide cost-efficient solutions for affected communities, and to allow these communities to develop a strategy and financial plan to gain compliance. Science showed that the drop from 50 to 10 ppb would lower the cancer rates from one in 100 to one in 500.
Fast-forward nearly 10 years (since the new level was proposed) and five years after all communities across the US were to be in compliance. Based upon continued investigation and meetings with communities, operators and engineering firms, there remains a significant number of communities that continue to be out of compliance with this regulation. The vast majority of these drinking water systems have been granted extensions or exemptions, based upon a number of options that became available after the regulation went in to effect. One example of an extension that was provided was aimed at total arsenic loading over a set period of time.
In summary, if a community has a 50-ppb level of arsenic in their water, based upon the five-year allowance for compliance, this would allow for a total of 250-ppb loading over that period of time (50 ppb x five years = 250 ppb over five years). Therefore, if a community had a 25-ppb level, they would then be permitted 10 years to come into compliance, since the time-averaged loading would be the same for those communities with 50 ppb (250 ppb/25 = 10 years).
There are other factors involved as well, including a number of initiatives specifically directed at small and very small communities that were unable to afford centralized treatment for compliance. These extensions and exemptions are permitted under the 1996 Amendments to the SDWA, whereby primacy agencies are permitted to grant variances to small water systems that provide evidence that they are unable to afford the technology to come into compliance with various regulated substances. These variances allow a system to install technology that can reduce a contaminant to the maximum extent that is affordable and protective of public health, in lieu of technology that can achieve compliance with that regulation. One of the tools available to these small water systems is a review of other systems that are of the same size with similar source water that have not achieved compliance but do provide some treatment under this variance tool. Frequently, it is associations like the National Rural Water Association that go to bat and fight for these extensions and exemptions for the small and very small water utilities. By small and very small water utilities, we are looking at populations under 3,300 individuals for the small and 500 for the very small.
Why does this matter now?
Between 2004 and 2006, the world of arsenic-reduction products, media and hardware was developing and being aggressively marketed at a dizzying rate. New products came out monthly (almost weekly it seemed), claiming lower cost, longer life and US EPA approval. There were so many options available that, as soon as a decision was made for a community or engineering firm to use one type of system, it was bombarded with information about a new, better, faster, stronger product that should have been considered. Today, much of this chaos has gone by the wayside. Many of the functional processes for arsenic remediation have bubbled to the top and remain successfully in service for these communities.
Enter the realm of small communities with their extensions and exemptions. Gradually, these agreements are coming to a point where the system operators are being pressured by their primacy agency to come into compliance. States like Nevada, Texas and California are addressing many of these smaller communities on a case-by-case basis, now that the frenzy has passed and there is time to look at these cases with a more reasonable completion timeframe and agency staff workload. For these smaller communities, the POU program remains one of the best solutions for compliance.
California recently passed AB 2515, allowing POU as a means for compliance for small water systems. Nevada's Department of Environmental Protection recently finalized its program for POU remedies, and is actively moving forward with a number of projects, both pilot and full implementation. Texas was once considered the 'never' state for POU. Following several meetings over the course of a number of years, the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality has embraced POU applications as a viable means for compliance. Texas is now very interested in developing their POU program through monitored pilot testing with small communities for arsenic, as well as a few other contaminants that seem to affect small water systems throughout the state. In Arizona, POU programs have been up and running for years and doing well; the nuances of the program, however, can get a little tricky, depending upon the location of the community and how long the system has been utilizing POU options.
POU treatment for arsenic is just the tip of the regulatory iceberg. As we start peeling back the layers of regulatory issues, to include current drinking water 'sleeping' regulations (like those for radium and radionuclide, future developing perchlorate, personal-care products and endocrine disruptors) the efficiencies for POU treatment will continue to prove beneficial.
What does it mean for me, the reader of this article?
In this time of economic uncertainty, everyone is working hard to differentiate their business and provide niche products or services. The lesson to take away from this journey down regulatory lane is that there is a developing market for affordable small-system compliance through point-of-use technology. I know this has been talked about before in a number of articles over the past few years; however, as these systems are now actively looking for solutions, the time for cost-efficient, decentralized treatment seems to be emerging. For the heavily hit states, mainly in the southwest, most of the communities that have the financial ability to implement a full arsenic treatment program—either through their own funding or through funding opportunities such as the Drinking Water State Revolving Loan Fund, or the Rural Utilities Service of the US Department of Agriculture—have completed their projects. For the estimated 800 or so small communities that have yet to achieve compliance, however, the main reason has been the financial inability to implement a full treatment plant program. These communities have relied on variances and extensions in order to stay off the violators list. As these extensions come to term, these communities are looking for viable options for compliance.
What makes a POU project successful? After nearly eight years of working with engineers, regulators, water systems and installers, I have found that the most important part of a successful program is the local water dealer. It is the ability to meet directly with engineers, operators and, most importantly, the community, to review and discuss POU treatment options. Many operators and engineering firms remain leery of POU technology, relegating its use to a secondary option. At some point, however, communities start pushing back on cost; when economics come into play, the conversation often turns to POU technology.
For most compliance projects, reverse osmosis still remains one of the best solutions for these communities. When calculating a 10-year cost summary for a project, it is not the initial cost of the POU systems that affect the overall long-term cost. Heavy cost burden for the POU program occurs with the maintenance of the systems. Media-based systems are completely dependent upon total volume of water treated; therefore, each house or treatment unit will reach their monitored capacity at a different time of the year. A house with two people may have a year before a unit needs to be serviced, but a unit being used on a family of six with pets will require maintenance much earlier. These unscheduled service calls tend to be more expensive and are very difficult to manage for the individual responsible for the service contract. Through the use of RO units, maintenance can be anticipated with a pre-scheduled, annual service program, where the pre- and post-filters can be changed out and the system serviced. During this time, the water technician can test the TDS reduction capabilities of the RO membrane to determine if they need to be changed out as well. Due to compliance rules, each system should be equipped with a TDS monitor. However, pre- scheduled, annual service checks can easily determine the need to replace the RO membrane a little early. This saves on a second servicing later in the year if the membrane is close to needing replacement. An additional benefit to the RO system is its ability to reduce more than one contaminant. As new regulations are enforced and developed, RO systems remain a proven technology to handle these new and developing contaminants.
In summary, there remain opportunities in this area, but the ability to work with engineering firms, product providers, operators and regulators is necessary to fulfill all requirements for the state or primacy agency. Like putting up bathroom signs, it is important to know beforehand what the regulations are, and make sure they are followed before any installations can be completed properly. Otherwise, the signs may have to be ripped down and the walls repaired, which is an unnecessary cost in time and money.

Florian Griespek von Griespach (tschechisch Florián Gryspek, Florián Gryspek z Gryspachu, Florián Griespek z Griespachu; * 18. Dezember 1509 in Innsbruck; † 29. März 1588 in Nelahozeves) war ein böhmischer Adliger bayerisch-österreichischer Abstammung, hoher königlicher Beamter sowie Ahnherr des Geschlechtes der Griespek von Griespach.

Nach seinen Studien an den Universitäten Bologna und Paris trat er 1530 in die Dienste König Ferdinands I., welcher ihn wegen seiner Bildung und seiner Ergebenheit als Sekretär der Böhmischen Kammer sehr schätzte. So wurde er 1535 wegen seiner Kenntnisse der italienischen Sprache mit der Bauaufsicht über das Lustschloss der Königin Anna im Burggarten beauftragt. Im Jahre 1538 wurde er königlicher Rat, 1540 kämmerlicher Prokurator.

Weil sich Griespek auf Seiten des Königs stellte, wurde er während der anti-habsburgischen Aufständen 1547 kurzzeitig durch die Vertreter der Stände auf der Prager Burg eingesperrt. Er erwarb schrittweise einen umfangreichen Landbesitz, unter anderem die Herrschaften Kaceřov, Nelahozeves und Rožmitál, auf denen er umfangreiche bauliche und unternehmerische Aktivitäten durchführte, von denen besonders die Renaissance-Umbauten an den Schlössern in Nelahozeves und Kaceřov zu nennen sind.

Griespek besaß am Hradschin ein Renaissance-Palais (Gryspekovský dům), welches nach 1562 zum Erzbischöflichen Palais wurde.

Florian Griespek hatte vierzehn Söhne und zehn Töchter, darunter Blasius (Blažej). Sein Besitz wurde unter den sieben Söhnen, die ihren Vater überlebten, aufgeteilt. Florian liegt gemeinsam mit seiner Frau Rosina, geb. Helzl von Sillian, in der Kirche St. Peter und Paul in Kralovice begraben.

$2.2 million grant pays for stadium improvements
Special to The Star
In December 2021, Cleveland County ALWS Baseball Inc. learned that the N.C. Legislature had approved a $2.2 million grant for improvements at Keeter Stadium, the venue for The American Legion World Series.
In February 2022, the local ALWS committee hired Charlie Morrison of Morrison Construction Company as project manager for two major upgrades at the stadium: expansion of the canopy over the stands and the addition of LED lights over Veterans Field.
In March 2022, Morrison began work, noting that, barring any unforeseen issues, the projects would be completed before the 2022 ALWS opened on Aug. 11.
The canopy extension on the third base side will be 48 -feet long; the extension on the first base side will be 42 feet long. The canopies will be steel and metal construction. Each of the foundations for the canopy columns requires an 8-foot by 6-foot by 6-foot hole filled with a rebar cage and 48,000 pounds of concrete.
For the LED lights, electricians are replacing four of the existing poles around the outfield with new poles with climbing pegs and safety cables to allow access to fixtures without a crane or boom lift.
Four other existing poles on the concourse are being retrofitted as well as existing and new lights suspended under the canopies. All poles will have LED lights with RGB (red-green-blue) color mixing capability so Press Box staffers can produce various colors at varying levels of saturation. The lights can be coordinated with music to enhance field ceremonies and plays on the field.
The lighting system is from Cooper Ephesus, whose products are installed at Bank of America (Panthers) Stadium, Truist Field (Charlotte Knights Stadium) and Duke University.
Numerous other electrical upgrades will improve the press box, main concession stand, the baseball field house, and the vendor area of the third base concourse.
"We have needed these upgrades to enhance the ALWS experience for players and the fans," said Eddie Holbrook, chairman of the local ALWS committee. "The heat, humidity and downpours that accompany the games dampen the enjoyment of those who come to watch the tournament. The larger canopies will alleviate that for more fans. We are excited to see the reactions of players and fans to the light and sound entertainment package. We believe it will enhance enjoyment for everybody."
The 2022 ALWS is scheduled for Aug. 11-16, with the opening game at 10 a.m. on Aug. 11.
For more information about the upgrades at Keeter Stadium, call Eddie Holbrook at 704- 473-7865.
General admission tickets go on sale to the public June 1. For more information about the games and tickets, go to americanlegionworldseries.com.

-- About --
Liz DeRoche (aka The Singing Lizard) started playing piano and drums when she was just four years old. Growing up in the green valleys of Western Oregon, she drew her inspiration from nature and the simple joys of small-town living. As a child, she was surrounded by a tremendous amount of music. Her dad was a theater director and her mom was a music teacher. Someone was always creating harmonious music in the house. As a boundary-pushing teenager, Liz began to contemplate the most exciting life she could live.
Her intrinsic inquisitiveness led to seeking musical adventures abroad, back-packing throughout Europe and South America. She encountered music as diverse as the people she met. Music was a way of connecting with one another and she saw how empowering it was especially when interacting with young people. When she returned, she focused on working with kids and teenagers as a music teacher and mentor for non-profit and community organizations.
In 2010, Liz followed her dream of working as a full-time musician. She founded her own independent record label (AlphaBeat Records) to promote the release of family friendly music and began performing as The Singing Lizard, a nickname she acquired as a kid. With the creation of Electro-Kindie, Liz is one of the first artists to combine original and traditional children's music with electronic, pop, and dance genres. Her live shows are interactive, high energy and entertaining. Just watch all the kids line up for a hug from The Singing Lizard after a performance and you will truly understand the connection she creates with her audience. Adults make up some of Liz's most loyal fans, thrilled that she has inspired their children by gently encouraging the shy and channeling the exuberant to imagine, dance, and learn.

BE YOURSELF – NEW VIDEO FROM CLUB CALLED AWESOME!
I recently collaborated with the incredible team at HISHE Kids and multi-talented artist/animator, Ruben DeLuna, on three of my songs ("Imagination", "Show Me Your Happy", "Be Yourself"). The latest release, "Be Yourself" is a tribute to my niece and nephews. They are truly their own person, each with their individual ideas of how to be, how to dress, how to introduce themselves to the world. They are sensitive and strong, hilarious and intuitive, and they are unknowingly breaking every gender rule.
It's not always easy to navigate this conversation, in a time when there's increasing awareness of transgender adults, the youngest gender-nonconforming kids are also an important part of that conversation. That includes the kids who are adamant about having been born in the wrong body, as well as a much larger group of kids who consistently and markedly defy gender norms.
JOIN THE CLUB CALLED AWESOME!
OK, let's do this, friends! I've just launched a Kickstarter campaign for my new album. The funds will go towards mastering, printing, artwork and press. I am SO EXCITED about this project! The COMIC BOOK is going to be amazing and the SONGS are so much fun. Please tell everyone you know! Share this project far and wide. Spread the word & spread the love. I cannot do this without your help! THANK YOU!

New collaboration between NMI and Paysafe provides partners and merchants with significant international reach and capabilities to grow their business
NMI, a leading provider of payments enablement technology for independent sales organisations (ISOs), independent software vendors (ISVs), value-added resellers (VARs) and payment facilitators, and Paysafe, a leading global payments provider, today announced an expanded partnership which sees NMI leverage Paysafe's global acquiring and processing reach and Paysafe deepen its integration and offering accessible through NMI's payments enablement technology. Together, the two organisations have developed a customisable payment processing solution that provides flexibility and a range of features and payment method acceptance to their merchants and partners based on their specific gateway and acquiring requirements.
For more than a decade, NMI has worked with Paysafe to deliver its ISOs, ISVs and VARs value-added, innovative payment processing solutions. Through the new collaboration, partners using the NMI gateway can further enhance their platforms by enabling their merchants with a frictionless on-boarding experience and secure processing of credit card and direct debit (ACH) payments through Paysafe's supported platforms in the United States, Canada, Europe and Australia. A further benefit is that Paysafe is a principal member of Visa and Mastercard in Europe, meaning it can directly acquire and process Visa and Mastercard transactions across the continent. The Paysafe solution also allows for fast and easy account on-boarding for merchants. In addition, this collaboration will bring value to Paysafe customers by leveraging more than 150 NMI shopping cart integrations. And with NMI's strong U.S. distribution and multi-tiered hierarchal portfolio management capabilities, Paysafe partners can more easily on-board and manage their merchant customers.
"Our core focus is on delivering value to our partners and taking away the headache of having to develop their own technology, and our partnership with Paysafe is based on this guiding principle," said NMI CEO Roy Banks. "Paysafe is a very flexible partner, focused on providing customizable solutions for its partners and is also gateway agnostic, unlike other processors in this industry. It's strong, relevant partnerships like this that make sense for us and enable us to deliver innovative solutions to our partners."
"Our ethos is that one size does not fit all and we need to be flexible and allow our merchants and partners to easily plug into our platform in order to grow their business," said Paysafe CEO of Payment Processing for North America Todd Linden. "This expanded partnership with NMI reinforces this approach and our commitment to developing an unrivalled payments platform for our customers – something we continue to focus on and invest in."
For ISOs, ISVs and VARs wishing to use the technology provided through this partnership, NMI and Paysafe will work closely together to ensure seamless integration, operation and customer support.

Kiryas Joel Meat Market
Address: 7 Dinev Ct, Monroe, NY 10950
Establishment No.: p31727
USDA Inspection Report: 16 Sep 2011
Code: 03C02
Violation: 381.66(a), 381.66(b)
Citation: September 16, 2011 06:47 hours While performing an unscheduled, 06D01, facilities and equipment sanitation inspection procedure on the loading dock, I observed eight (8) pallets of young chicken and young turkey product in the process of being loaded onto a refrigerated box truck and on the verge of entering into commerce. I entered the truck payload into which three (3) pallets of product, approximately two thousand (2,000) pounds, had been placed. The labels applied to the exterior of the shipping containers of this product bore the marks of Federal inspection and the Julian date code, 111259, indicating that they were derived from live poultry that had been slaughtered, processed, and packaged during yesterday's production, 09/15/2011. I inserted a bi-metal mechanical stem thermometer provided to me by the establishment that had been calibrated on 09/12/2011 into the breast of a whole young turkey contained inside a waxed cardboard shipping container. The thermometer registered a temperature of fifty (50) degrees Fahrenheit (F). A boneless, netted young turkey product in another case registered an internal temperature of fifty-one (51) degrees F. Repeating this on items from each of the remaining seven (7) pallets, I discovered none of the young turkey products I probed registered internal temperatures below fifty (50) degrees F. I retained the young turkey product by affixing the Food Safety and Inspection Service Forms 6502-1 #B39718863, #B39718876, #B39718862, #B39718878, #B39718875, #B39718861, #B39718874, and #B39718877 and immediately requested management to have it removed it from the truck and shipping dock and returned it to the establishment's refrigeration facilities. I additionally noted that the refrigeration unit of this vehicle was not in operation at the time I made these measurements. These observations constitute a failure to comply with the United States Code of Federal Regulations, Title 9, Chapter III, Animals and Animal Products, Part 381, Poultry Products Inspection Regulations, Sections 66(a) and 66(b). The acting shipping and receiving manager alerted the establishment's HACCP Director, Mr. [redacted] of the noncompliance by telephone. Federal regulations regarding product temperatures and chilling and freezing procedures are mandated by law and enforced in the field by FSIS inspection program personnel to eliminate, or reduce to an acceptable level, the outgrowth of any spoilage and/or pathogenic microorganisms that may be present and promote product wholesomeness. This document serves as written notification that failure to comply with regulatory requirements may result in additional regulatory and/or administrative action(s). Past Similar NRs - Previous Ineffective Plant Actions: Failure to maintain the product temperature at or below 40F prior to shipping. NR: 34-2011 dated 7/18/2011
381.66(a) General. Temperatures and procedures that are necessary for chilling and freezing ready-to-cook poultry, including all edible portions thereof, must be in accordance with operating procedures that ensure the prompt removal of the animal heat, preserve the condition and wholesomeness of the poultry, and assure that the products are not adulterated.
381.66(b) General chilling requirements, except for ratites. All poultry that is slaughtered and eviscerated in the official establishment shall be chilled immediately after processing so that the internal temperature is reduced to 40 °F. or less, as provided in paragraph (b)(2) of this section unless such poultry is to be frozen or cooked immediately at the official establishment. Eviscerated poultry to be shipped from the establishment in packaged form shall be maintained at 40 °F. or less, except that during further processing and packaging operations, the internal temperature may rise to a maximum of 55 °F.: Provided, That immediately after packaging, the poultry is placed under refrigeration at a temperature that will promptly lower the internal temperature of the product to 40 °F. or less, or the poultry is placed in a freezer. Poultry which is to be held at the plant in packaged form in excess of 24 hours shall be held in a room at a temperature of 36 °F. or less.

I wonder if that means horizontal recoil isn't handled the same way as vertical recoil for the an94's 2 round burst. Or, maybe, it's just spread increase per shot higher than we would expect.
I have a request, since I can't figure out how to do things myself... sorry!
Could someone compare an accurate assault rifle, such as the M16A3, to an inaccurate rifle, such as the FAMAS, at a distance of 25 meters with a body inserted into the plot? I want to see the trade-off of accuracy at 25 meters, which I estimate to be the average distance of firefights in the game.
I am trying to get into Plotic.
I used the SCAR as a camparission.
I used the delievered weapon datafolder to draw a plot. After that I set up a custom weapon and set the parameters like shown on symthic.com for the SCAR.
I'll look into that when I can get a free moment apart from some other projects. The main thing that needs to be taken care of is to get new data files since the update.
Can we have the password please?
Can i have the pass too?
Such a tease. What is the password for the rar?
Let RobotMonkey update the Plotic.
Folder and file structure needs to be tweaked for it to work.

В обчислювальній геометрії існує багато алгоритмів знаходження опуклої оболонки скінченної множини точок з різною складністю обчислень.

Обчислити опуклу оболонку означає, що виконане недвозначне та ефективне представлення необхідної опуклої форми. Обчислювальна складність відповідних алгоритмів зазвичай розраховується в термінах n — числа вхідних точок, та h — числа точок в опуклій оболонці.

Плоский випадок

Розглянемо загальний випадок, де вхідними даними алгоритму є скінченна невпорядкована множина точок декартової площини.

Якщо не всі точки лежать на одній прямій, їх опуклою оболонкою буде опуклий многокутник, вершини якого — це деякі точки зі вхідної множини. Найчастіше його подання є переліком вершин, відсортованих за годинниковою стрілкою або проти годинникової стрілки. В деяких випадках зручно представляти опуклий многокутник як перетин множини півплощин або півпросторів у просторовому випадку.

Нижня межа обчислювальної складності

Для скінченої множини точок на площині нижня межа обчислювальної складності находження опуклої оболонки у вигляді опуклого многокутника є тією ж, що й в задачі сортування з подальшим зведенням. Це унаочнює такий приклад.

Для множини  чисел, які треба відсортувати, розглянемо множину  точок площини. Так як, вони лежать на параболі, яка є опуклою кривою, легко бачити, що вершини опуклої оболонки, що проходяться вздовж межі, створюють відсортовану множину чисел . Очевидно, для описаного перетворення чисел на точки і отримання їх відсортованого порядку потребується лінійний час. З цієї причини в загальному випадку опукла оболонка n точок не може бути обчислена швидше, ніж проведено їх сортування.

Стандартна Ω(n log n) нижня межа сортування доведена в обчислювальній моделі дерева прийняття рішень, в якому виконуються тільки порівняння, але не арифметичні дії; однак в цій моделі опуклі оболонки не можуть бути обчислені взагалі. Сортування також потребує час Ω(n log n) в обчислювальній моделі алгебраїчного дерева прийняття рішень, моделі, що більш підходить для опуклих оболонок, і в цих моделях опуклі оболонки також потребують час Ω(n log n). Однак в моделях комп'ютерної арифметики дозволяється сортувати числа швидше, ніж за час O(n log n), наприклад, при використанні алгоритмів цілочисельного сортування, пласкі опуклі оболонки також можуть бути обчислені швидше: Алгоритм Грехема для опуклих оболонок містить один крок сортування після якого йде лінійний об'єм додаткової роботи.

Оптимальні чутливі до вихідних даних алгоритми
Як зазначено вище, складність знаходження опуклої оболонки як функції вхідного розміру n обмежена знизу Ω(n log n). Однак складність деяких алгоритмів опуклої оболонки можна схарактеризувати як вхідним розміром n, так і вихідним розміром h (кількістю точок опуклої оболонки). Такі алгоритми називаються . Вони можуть бути асимптотично ефективнішими, ніж алгоритми Θ(n log n) у випадках, коли h = o(n).

Відомо, що нижня межа часу роботи в найгіршому випадку алгоритмів чутливих до вихідних даних опуклої оболонки дорівнює Ω(n log h) у планарному випадку. Існує кілька алгоритмів, які досягають цієї оптимальної часової складності. Перший з таких алгоритмів був представлений  і  у 1986 році (які назвали його «алгоритмом крайньої опуклої оболонки»). Більш простий алгоритм був розроблений  у 1996 році та називається алгоритм Чена.

Алгоритми

Відомі алгоритми обчислення опуклої оболонки, наведені нижче, відсортовано за датою їх першої публікації. Обчислювальна складність кожного алгоритму наведена в термінах числа вхідних точок n і числа точок оболонки h. В найгіршому випадку h дорівнюватиме n.

 Алгоритм Джарвіса — O(nh)  Один з найпростіших (також з найефективнішим використанням часу в найгіршому випадку) плоских алгоритмів. Винайдений Чандом і Капуром в 1970 і Р. А. Джарвісом в 1973 роках. Він має обчислювальну складність O(nh). В найгіршому випадку обчислювальна складність складає O(n2).

 Алгоритм Грехема — O(n log n)  Дещо більш складний, але значно більш ефективний алгоритм, опублікований Рональдом Гремом в 1972 році. Якщо точки вже відсортовані за однією з координат о за кутом до фіксованого вектора, алгоритм потребує час O(n).

 Алгоритм швидкої оболонки  Винайдений незалежно в 1977 У. Едді та в 1978 А. Бікатом. Як алгоритм швидкого сортування має очікувану складність обчислень O(n log n), але може погіршуватися до Θ(nh) = O(n2) в найгіршому випадку.

 Розділяй і володарюй — O(n log n)  Інший O(n log n) алгоритм, опублікований в 1977 році Франко Препарата і Хонгом. Цей алгоритм є також придатним для тривимірного випадку.

 Монотонний ланцюг або Алгоритм Ендрю — O(n log n)  Опубліковано в 1979 А. М. Ендрю. Алгоритм можна розглядати як варіант алгоритму Грехема який сортує точки в лексикографічному порядку за їх координатами. В разі, якщо вхідні точки вже відсортовані, алгоритм потребує час O(n).

 Інкрементальний алгоритм обчислення опуклої оболонки — O(n log n)  Опубліковано в 1984 році М. Келей.

 Алгоритм Кіркпатрика — Зейделя — O(n log h)  Перший оптимальний чутливий до вихідних даних алгоритм, він використовує техніку «шлюб перед завоюванням». Опубліковано  і  в 1986.

 Алгоритм Чена — O(n log h)  Простіший оптимальний чутливий до вихідних даних алгоритм винайдений  в 1996 році.

Евристика Акла — Туссена
Наступна проста евристика часто використовується як перший крок у реалізації алгоритмів опуклої оболонки для підвищення їх продуктивності. Він заснований на ефективному алгоритмі опуклої оболонки  та , 1978 р. Мета алгоритма в тому, щоб швидко відкинути багато точок, які все одно не будуть частиною опуклої оболонки. Цей метод заснований на наступній ідеї. Знайдіть дві точки з найменшою та найбільшою координатами x, а також дві точки з найменшою та найбільшою y-координатами. Кожна з цих операцій займає O(n). Ці чотири точки утворюють опуклий чотирикутник, і всі точки, які лежать у цьому чотирикутнику (за винятком чотирьох початково обраних вершин), не є частиною опуклої оболонки. Знаходження всіх точок, які лежать у цьому чотирикутнику, також потребує O(n) операцій, а отже, загальна кількість операцій дорівнює O(n). За бажанням, точки з найменшою та найбільшою сумою координат x і y, а також точки з найменшою та найбільшою різницею x- і y-координат також можуть бути додані до чотирикутника, утворюючи таким чином неправильний опуклий восьмикутник, всередині якого можна безпечно відкинути всі точки. Якщо точки є випадковими величинами, то для обмеженого, але часто зустрічаємого класу функцій щільності ймовірності, цей одноразовий етап попередньої обробки, призведе до виконання алгоритму опуклої оболонки за лінійний очікуваний час, навіть якщо складність алгоритму опуклої оболонки є квадратичною відносно n.

Онлайн та динамічні задачі з опуклою оболонкою
Вище розглянуто випадок, коли всі вхідні точки відомі заздалегідь. Можемо розглянути два інших параметри.

 Онлайн-задача пошуку опуклої оболонки: вхідні точки надходять послідовно одна за одною. Після того, як кожна точка прибуває на вхід, опукла оболонка для мнодини точок, які отримані на цей час, має бути ефективно обчислена.

 Обслуговування динамічної опуклої оболонки: вхідні точки можна послідовно вставляти або видаляти, а опуклу оболонку необхідно оновлювати після кожної операції вставки/видалення.

Вставка точки може збільшити кількість вершин опуклої оболонки щонайбільше на 1, тоді як видалення може перетворити n-вершинну опуклу оболонку в (n-1) — вершину.

Онлайн-версію можна обробляти за час O(log n) на точку, що є асимптотично оптимальним. Динамічна версія може оброблятися за допомогою O(log2 n) за операцію.

Простий багатокутник

Опукла оболонка простого многокутника ділиться багатокутником на частини, однією з яких є сам багатокутник, а решта — це «кишені», обмежені частиною межі многокутника та одним ребром оболонки. Хоча для задачі побудови опуклої оболонки простого багатокутника опубліковано багато алгоритмів, майже половина з них є невірними. Маккалум і Евіс надали перший правильний алгоритм. Пізніше спрощення, зроблене  і  використовує лише одну структуру даних — стек. Їхній алгоритм обходить багатокутник за годинниковою стрілкою, починаючи з його крайньої лівої вершини. При цьому він зберігає послідовність тих вершин у стеку, які ще не були ідентифіковані як вершини у межах кишень. На кожному етапі алгоритм проходить шлях уздовж багатокутника від вершини стека до наступної вершини, яка не знаходиться в одній із двох кишень, суміжних з вершиною стека. Потім, поки дві верхні вершини в стеку разом з цією новою вершиною не знаходяться в опуклому положенні, вона виштовхує стек, перш ніж, нарешті, помістити у нього нову вершину. Коли обхід за годинниковою стрілкою досягає початкової точки, алгоритм повертає послідовність вершин стека як оболонку.

Вищі розмірності

Відомі алгоритми обчислення опуклої оболонки в тривимірному просторі, як і в просторах з довільною вимірністю. Наприклад, у випадках більших розмірностей можна застосовувати алгоритм Чена і алгоритм швидкої оболонки.

Для скінченної множини точок, опукла оболонка є опуклим багатогранником в тривимірному просторі і опуклим політопом для будь-якої кількості розмірностей, чиї вершини є точками з вхідної множини точок. Його представлення не є таким простим, як в плоскому випадку. У випадку більших розмірностей, навіть якщо відомі вершини опуклого політопу, побудова його граней є нетривіальною задачею, як і задача побудови вершин при наявних гранях. Об'єм вихідних даних є експоненціально більшим за об'єм вхідних даних і навіть у випадках, коли вхідні та вихідні дані мають порівняний об'єм, відомі алгоритми обчислення опуклої оболонки для віщих розмірностей не є  даних у відношенні до питань вироджених вхідних даних і проміжних результатів високої складності.

The most important tip is; hire a professional. A professional can reduce your headache by taking all your worries regarding installation. In case you're replacing a Boiler, there are possibilities that your HVAC professional will help you figure out the flaws in your old system that need to be fixed for better performance in future.
The size of unit and pipes matter a lot. Choosing a wrong size Boiler will prove to be regretful and nothing else since it will either be an oversized Boiler that will bring hefty bills or a downsized Boiler that will fail to suffice for the needs. Then the size of a boiler needs to be compared with the size of piping to circulate the hot water and the one to fill the storage tank. You see, it's a whole lot of job and that's what make you dependant on professionals.
In place of being worried and over cautious for the process of Installation and yet risking your Boiler never knowing what might go wrong anytime, why not take services from a pro? At Cosmopolitan Mechanical Service Inc. we are offering Boiler Installation services at affordable rates. Our services areas are spread throughout GTA in over 20 GTA areas while the Installation is performed by a highly experienced tech that is both NATE and TSSA certified.

During depth analysis, we came across that Lucky Ransomware is a newly released virus which is developed by experienced cyber punks, is compatible with Windows 2000. Once your Operating System is affected with the virus, you notice so many weird activities onto your Operating System. Your PC may shutdown and restart several times automatically. Since, the virus creates so many unwanted registries and schedules tasks in Windows task manager, your useful applications may take longer time to operate or they may not respond and display error like CPU ran out of memory or application couldn't restart. What's worse, Lucky Ransomware may make significant alteration to your Chrome and force you to click frauds. Creepy commercial ads may appear on the webpages while you surf online. Somehow, the virus can also encrypt your files if you do not get rid of it immediately.
When you pay close attention, you can notice that few weird activities of your Operating System in case your Operating System is compromised with Lucky Ransomware.

Ska ej blandas ihop med den franske vetenskapsmannen Pierre Borel, som ibland använde det latiniserade förnamnet Petrus.

Pétrus Borel, ursprungligen Joseph-Pierre Borel d'Hauterive, född 29 juni 1809 i Lyon, död 14 juli 1859 i Mostaganem, var en fransk författare av dikter och berättelser. Som person var Borel en av de ivrigaste (och sista) bland romantikens anhängare. Under 1850-talet betraktades han som en halvt karikatyrartad person av den nya realismens företrädare. Bland hans arbeten märks diktsamlingen Rhapsodies (1831), novellsamlingen Champavert med undertiteln "omoraliska berättelser" (1833), samt romanen Madame Putiphar (1839). Borel grundade även en rad tidningar, däribland en med titeln "Satan", och översatte Robinson Crusoe till franska 1836. Sina sista 13 år bodde Borel i Algeriet. Hans samlade verk utkom 1922 i Frankrike. André Breton tog med några brottstycken ur Borels produktion som exempel på svart humor i sin Anthologie de l'humour noir (1940). Till svenska översattes Champavert av Elias Wraak år 2016.
