Cheboksary as a family business has become the main supplier of basalt to the West
01.04.2012 Category: UkraineAuthor: admin
We are used to the fact that new technologies are coming to Russia or the West, or are based on the old, old Soviet research institutes. But here's the creators of Cheboksary family business "Galen", by contrast, have achieved commercial success in the fact that their products are adopting the West. About how it was created a unique, family-run business and the prospects for the use of composites in Russian life, "sparks" the founders told "Galen": the founder and chief inventor Valery Nikolaev and his eldest son, Eugene — part-time commercial director of the company.

Valery Nikolaev: I started from scratch. In the early 1990s, our factory producing chemical products, where I worked for chemical engineer for more than 20 years, came to conversion, and our main products have become useless. Here it was necessary to think of what to do next and how to feed my family. Well, the choice is something special was not … At first, I was engaged in processing electroplating waste, began to build a plant for processing of liquid waste from the production of cables, built them in Rybinsk, in Vladimir, at home, in Cheboksary. He worked day and night, even though a large income I did not bring this occupation. Of course, enough bread, but no more. By the way, these are my settings are still working. Then engaged in packaging of solvents and other chemicals. The fact that our Cheboksary "Himprom" was shipping solvents only tanks and wagons, and for retail, you know, we need a smaller package. And I opened a small enterprise for additional cleaning products and packaging. Then came the crisis of 1998, which we like all the other domestic producers, gave a tremendous impetus for development — foreign counterparts of our products are available to consumers, and our product was sold out. There are free money, and I began to look closely, where they could be invested — not just profits, but also with interest for the mind …
Eugene Nikolaev: By the way, we initially at the insistence of my mother — she have a doctor by profession — would do the production of medical equipment. This explains our name "Galen" — in honor of the Roman physician Claudius Galen, the second after Avitsennymedika antiquity. But the medical equipment we have not gone, but there was an order for the production of composites, and the topic was close to his father.
About composites
Eugene Nikolaev: On the advice of our friends builders we decided to undertake the development and production of composite reinforcement for civil and industrial construction. The fact is that while in our construction industry just developed new requirements for energy efficiency, according to which all concrete walls should be three layers — that between the outer and inner layers of concrete was placed a layer of insulation. , New approaches to the compound layers of the "sandwich", and the father suggested that instead of the usual steel bars use of composite materials. And in the end he developed the entire production cycle.
Valery Nikolaev: Eight years after the creation of the product and the production, I learned that the 1960s in the USSR adopted a government program to reduce metallozavisimosti. Then was the first experience gained production and use of composites based on polymers and compounds basalt rock. This program has had and cosmic significance — after sending the Soviet moon rovers our scientists have construction projects Soviet base on the moon. And of what to build it? From local basalt, using imported composite reinforcement. However, by the end of 1970 all of these programs have been closed and abandoned, many discoveries have remained unclaimed … And when I started to work on the creation of composites, I knew nothing about these modern developments.
Eugene Nikolaev: In short, the essence of the production lies in the combination of basalt fibers and a polymer resin with the addition of nanoparticles, such as clay. The result is a light and very rigid shaft, which can then be cut to the desired part. It would seem simple, but the technology nobody in the world could come up with. Therefore the production line's father received the award at an international conference in Baltimore, U.S.) — and it is in this country invented the technology of pultrusion technology that is making fiber composite profiles.
Valery Nikolaev: Well, now it's all so easy to say, he took and developed. In fact, it was a very difficult process: there was no experience, no knowledge of polymers. All battered by trial and error. Do not sleep at night, think about everything, whether it is necessary to embody this idea in a metal or something else … You try to think so, and that, and when it rolled as it should, the soul simply sings with joy.
On the "cold bridges"
Valery Nikolaev: You know what a "cold bridges"? If we perform a thermal imaging survey panel facade of any home, then we will see against the background of purple cold walls here and there scattered hot orange dots — this is the location of the reinforcing steel, through which flows away from the warmth of our apartments. The use of composite reinforcement can eliminate these "heat bridges" and to reduce the heat loss through the walls by 30-40 percent. Furthermore, it is the use of steel reinforcement in the construction is the main cause of corrosion and the further deterioration of concrete structures. The use of our basalt can not only extend the life of concrete, but also significantly reduce its consumption by the construction.
Eugene Nikolaev: More than 30% of the supply of our products are for export — in the UK, the Middle East and North Africa. Especially appreciated our stuff in the UK, which has a program for the construction of energy-efficient — a "passive" housing. Also our nanostructured materials have been used in the construction area of transnational highway "Europe — Western China" in Tatarstan, a bridge in the UK, in the mines of the Kuzbass coal basin. Moreover, the use of nanotechnology for us is a real competitive advantage — nanostructured materials increase the strength of the product, which ultimately saves us polymeric materials and reduce the price of our products. The plans — to launch mass production of several more developments. The advantages of these products as compared to conventional counterparts are obvious: they are more durable, have absolute corrosion resistance, reduce the cost of construction.
About nepotism
Valery Nikolaev: Our company is a family — both my son, Eugene Jr. and Victor are working on "Galen". In my opinion, this is the perfect device business. Of course, at the time the children rebelled wanted to go somewhere, but I think so: the stronger the effect, the stronger the resistance of the material. And vice versa: if you want someone to tie to the business, then it is released. I sent my sons to the free bread and they came back.
Eugene Nikolaev: In my opinion, and my father had the perfect partnership. You see, there are two approaches to the business, when the inventor sells his goods, it is interesting to quickly blurt out his idea of consumer interest him in the opening, but the entrepreneur, in contrast, is interested in what is actually necessary to our c
lient. Father we have — the present inventor, it is not very interested in the commercial side, but the little I know of his technological issues, and so we have a good team at the junction of the two approaches. Of course, there are disputes and serious differences, but, as written in the constitution of our family, we have every right to be wrong. The errors — are forgiven.
Valery Nikolaev: The family constitution — a document on your computer, where painted all the basic principles of our family: honesty, respect, forgiveness. Also on the basis of analysis of the strengths and weaknesses of each person assigned roles between us — it's Eugene after studying in London came up with.
Eugene Nikolaev: Nepotism company has both strengths and weaknesses. On the one hand, all important decisions are made very quickly and efficiently, and that's a plus. On the other hand, really can not get rid of even for an hour. Now we are fighting for our family get-togethers are not turned in planning meetings. That is more common issues can be discussed, but talk all the time about the work already painful … There is a third side of the coin: family conflicts. Let's just say, the family business became involved, not all members of the family, and I think that's fine. Because nepotism should not replace professional. For me, the ideal is the American approach to the family business, where the successor company to go through all the steps of the career ladder — from the lowest position. I worked with his father a laborer, pouring chemicals in a bottle, then became a foreman and so on.
On the Russian workers
Eugene Nikolaev: Today, the company employs 70 staff. To get a quality employee, you need to find the right motivation for the job, and it is not always money. The most important thing — it's honest transaction. We agree with the people about the work, and if people see that this transaction is fair, that they are willing to work hard. In general, the Russian working incredibly enterprising and hardworking, but only enough shook the world, it is fully aware of. For example, everyone is complaining about alcoholism, but the French are drinking a lot more of our, and work — less.
Valery Nikolaev: We are developing a production not only in Russia. We try to practice a flexible approach, because to produce in Russia is not always beneficial and, in some cases, quite profitable. For example, our Indian partners can by Indian health standards allow the use of those chemicals that we are strictly prohibited. So many products easier to produce in India for the Indian market. We are not afraid of what we will steal our technology. Because if they can do it, would already have done. But it's not as easy as it seems uninitiated.
About RUSNANO
Eugene Nikolaev: We are three years worked hard to become a RUSNANO project company — a status which gives us the green light for the cooperation of all of Russia's development institutions. It is a matter of national importance, because it is for the future of composites. Do you know what the global statistics of consumption of composites? In Russia produced 400 grams of composites per person per year. In China — about a kilogram, while in the U.S. — more than 8 pounds. Steel, aluminum — it's all the materials of the past century, because even the current aircraft by 60 percent is made of composite materials.
Valery Nikolaev: To be honest, in the production of basalt for construction of me is not so interesting. I had already thought of it all, created, delivered, as they say on their feet, now let the children of all further develop. I am also interested in new directions — for example, the use of composites in the road works in the energy sector or even in space. And that, in vain, whether that Soviet scientists have dreamed about the moon?

Ay yi yi! Grab a marg and enjoy these fish tacos! My husband and I honeymooned on the beautiful Caribbean island of Anguilla. While there we had a phenomenal fish sandwich at a beach bar called Gwen's Reggae bar. The fish had a spicy but sweet flavor that until now I couldn't put my finger on it! I had my ah-ha moment and realized it was a cumin and cinnamon mixture! I incorporated these flavors for a light summer dish of fish tacos. Enjoy ya'll!!
Preheat Oven to 400 degrees. Spray pan with non-stick spray. If skin on fish present place skin pan side down. Add spices to fish et rub into meat. Bake 15-20 minutes until fish is white and flaky.
Once fish is done remove skin and use fork to break apart fish into smaller pieces.
To make tacos, lay tortilla down and layer cheese, fish, and cabbage. Top with Avocado-Mango salsa and sour cream if you wish!
Combine all ingredients and serve chilled!

We packed up the pop-up camper and the SUV and we hit the road for a long weekend at the lake in the hot, high desert of central Oregon. This was our first long trip since we joined the OReGO program and I was curious to see how our trip would be logged.
Pulling the camper, packed with gear, and headed over the Cascades, the gas mileage was expected to be lower than usual. I wondered if the unit plugged into the ODBII port would correctly measure this change in fuel use.
So with the refund and fees, I was refunded 83¢ for this drive.
The MPG is not explicitly listed on the OReGO but they have miles and gallons, so it is not hard to compute. On this trip we averaged 15 MPG. This is lower than the 17 or 18 MPG that the SUV usually gets. So the unit seems to have correctly comprehended the change in MPG from pulling the camper.


If you have been feeling stressed, cranky or moody, your interior design may be at fault. Studies have shown that human beings simply feel better in a home that gets a lot of natural light. If you want to brighten up your space and mood, here are some tips to bring more light into your gloomy interiors.
Assess the dark areas in your home.
If you look at new condos in Toronto, you'll notice that they are generally designed to get lots of natural light – with high ceilings and large glass windows. Ideally, your home should be designed in the same way so the sun's rays can brighten inside.
But there's no need to change your windows or knock down your walls. What's important is that you know what areas don't bring in enough natural light and what factors may have contributed to this. Perhaps you can choose lighter shades for your walls? Or replace your curtains with sheer blinds?
Install recessed lighting fixtures to open up a dark ceiling.
Dark painted ceilings are common in homes today. Darker ceilings give a room a dramatic mood but the problem is that they can also make your room feel like a cave. To fix this, use recessed lighting fixtures to brighten up the ceiling. You can also install a dimmer switch so you'll have control on the lighting.
Choose double duty accent kitchen pendant lighting.
The kitchen is the one place in your home that you should aim to have as much light as possible – or at least create the illusion of brightness. So if it's dark in certain areas, using pendant lighting fixtures will do the trick. Lighting manufacturers have many options like stainless steel, mosaic tile, designer glass, and even artisan blown glass pendant lights that you can choose from!
Your bedroom is your own personal space and you are free to design it any way you choose. But to give your room a positive vibe, you need to strike a balance in the design. If you have dark bedding, then go for neutral walls to achieve a balanced and soothing atmosphere.
Closets are some of the darkest rooms in the home. But there are ways to bring light to these areas such as adding lighting fixtures, installing recessed lighting and painting your closets in light colors. You can also opt to add mirrors to reflect more light.
There are many things you can do to brighten up your dark interiors. The key is to know which areas you need to work on and identify the factors that may have contributed to the darkness in those areas. Once you've figured this out, you can then start making improvements with careful planning and research.

Atari VCS gets a browser surprise ahead of launch
Eric Abent | Dec 16, 2020
Atari is currently shipping out the very first VCS consoles to those who backed the system on indiegogo, and when those backers get their units, it'll come packing a surprise: Google Chrome. Atari announced today that Chrome is the official built-in browser of the VCS. While it's somewhat rare to see consoles supporting a third-party browser like Chrome natively, it makes sense for the VCS as Atari envisions it as a console/PC hybrid.
PONG re-released for your boomer parent Christmas
Today the folks at Atari re-released the original game PONG as a stand-alone gaming experience. Just like the original PONG, this unit includes two controllers and just ONE game. Instead of requiring a television set to show video, this "Atari Mini PONG Jr." is its own all-in-one system, including a 7.9-inch LCD panel for gameplay.
Atari VCS is finally ready to ship to backers anytime now
Crowdfunding has helped many dreams come true but also dashed many hopes. Pretty much like investors, backers took not just the financial but also the emotional risks of supporting projects in the hopes of seeing them come to fruition. For some time, it almost seemed like the Atari VCS would be one of those that remained as footnotes in history but the team behind the console revival is proud to announce that it shouldn't be long before backers finally get their rewards.
Atari VCS console will offer Plex movie streaming under new partnership
Brittany A. Roston | Aug 30, 2020
The upcoming -- and frequently delayed -- Atari VCS, a console that can be thought of as something like a 'remastered' Atari 2600, will offer streaming video through Plex, the company has announced. The app will be offered as part of the Atari VCS media apps under a new partnership between the two companies, giving users access to free ad-supported movies and TV shows.
Atari VCS console has a new and hopefully final launch date
JC Torres | Jul 2, 2020
Atari's recreation of its 80s home console is unique in many ways. It isn't a miniature version, for one, and it is also terribly late. In fact, it proudly celebrated the second anniversary of its Indiegogo crowdfunding last May. After setbacks, delays, drama, and even more delays, the Atari VCS may finally be ready to launch in the last quarter of the year, just in time for the gaming holidays.
Atari VCS shipments may begin this summer
It's been a long road, but it looks like Atari is nearly ready to ship out the first Atari VCS units. The VCS was first revealed a couple of years ago as something of a jack-of-all-trades; a console that seemed to tap into the nostalgia-fueled success of the NES Classic and the Sega Genesis Mini, but one that could still play more modern games at the same time. After all these years, the Atari VCS still feels a bit mysterious, but that veil should be finally pulled back entirely next month.
PONG Quest is the Atari Pong RPG no one ever asked for nor wanted
JC Torres | Apr 1, 2020
As the first computer game to grace human history, Pong has a special place in the minds and hearts of gamers and game developers alike. As a game itself, however, some might find the crude digital version of table tennis to be dreadfully boring. We live in an age of nostalgic comebacks, remasters, and mashups so it's not exactly shocking that Atari is giving the granddaddy of computer games a refresh. It is, however, puzzling that it decided to turn the paddle and ball game into an RPG instead.
Atari Hotels will put the gaming brand's legacy to the test
Some people still speak fondly of Atari today, at least those old enough to remember the gaming company's glorious past. The name, however, holds little meaning to the current generation, especially after the icon has been involved in not a few controversial news of late. It seems that Atari is desperate to keep its name from becoming just a footnote in gaming history, desperate enough to strike a deal that will put its name on a chain of hotels in the US.
Atari is building video game-themed hotels because why not?
While much of the attention Atari has received lately is down to the upcoming Atari VCS, it hasn't always been that way. Before the VCS was announced, Atari kept its business in the public eye by announcing some strange products. Some of those include its own cryptocurrency and even a hat with built-in speakers.
Atari VCS backers won't get their consoles on time
Eric Abent | Dec 2, 2019
We're quickly approaching the advertised release date for the Atari VCS, but Indiegogo backers will have to wait a bit longer than anticipated for their consoles. While the Atari VCS is set to go on sale to the general public in March 2020, Indiegogo backers were scheduled to get their at some point before the end of 2019. Now Atari VCS Chief Operating Officer Michael Artz is saying that's not going to happen.
Atari VCS gaming PC in question after key architect quits
JC Torres | Oct 8, 2019
Crowdfunding has given rise to dreamers, scammers, and everything in between. It has become an almost level playing field where even big companies may fail to deliver on promises or even make them a reality. It may be too early to judge the already delayed Atari VCS "retro" gaming PC "console" but it seems that it is getting dragged into controversy yet again after the departure of the still-unfinished product's designer.
Atari VCS will have a retro game subscription service
Back when Atari first revealed the VCS, the company said it would be a platform for both modern and retro games. It turns out that it wasn't kidding about the console's retro gaming chops, today announcing that it's partnered with Antstream Arcade to supply the VCS with "thousands of retro games." Antstream will do so by offering its retro gaming subscription service on the console.

The Damned plus Special Guests at Komedia in Bath
Posted on: 07 Jun 2019
Legendary punk band The Damned will be tipping up and making some serious noise (along with a few special guests) when they take Bath by storm at Komedia on Friday 28th June 2019.
Undoubtedly one of the greatest surviving punk bands, they're back once again with their first new album in a decade. They've lost none of their power either; breaking the rules, creating musical mayhem. Other bands have come and gone, but the mighty, indomitable spirit and energy of The Damned have kept them going - which is precisely why their legions of fans (and foreseeable legions of new ones) love them.
The Damned have always delighted in being somewhat unpredictable. Their albums Damned Damned Damned, Machine Gun Etiquette and Phantasmagoria merrily, mercilessly lunged from high-energy riffs to macabre psychedelia to the downright anarchic. Always on the road, always up for creating feverish musical havoc, their latest album, Evil Spirits, is their eleventh studio album and one destined to fit effortlessly into their incredible canon.
But despite the seeming chaos and maverick energy, they've always wanted to be heard, to be out there, to share their music. With nine singles that charted the UK Singles Chart Top 40, it's impossible to deny their influence and popularity too. And now - along with some special guests yet to be announced - fans of awesome punk rock music and one of the seminal UK progenitors of the movement can enjoy a mind-blowing retrospective of their incredible musical pantheon.
The gig is for ages 14+ (under 16s must be accompanied by an adult). Doors open at 7.30pm. Auditorium tickets are standing, balcony tickets seated (theatre style, unreserved). Tickets cost £25 advance and can be purchased here.
Komedia Bath is located at 22-23 Westgate Street, Bath, BA1 1EP. Tel. 01225 489070

Mercedes-Benz EQE teased again before Munich debut
In Cars, International News, Mercedes-Benz / By Gerard Lye / 2 September 2021 10:01 am / 0 comments
Mercedes-Benz will be very busy at this year's IAA Mobility event (otherwise known as the Munich Motor Show), as it has a whole slew of debuts planned. Ahead of a media night set to take place on September 5, the German carmaker has already unveiled the new Mercedes-AMG GT 63 S E Performance, but there's more to come.
One of the other models that will make its global debut will be the EQE, which has been teased ahead of the event. The EQE is the smaller sibling to the EQS in the company's line-up of EQ-branded electric vehicles, and based on what we can see, it certainly looks the part.
Despite the shadowy teasers, the body shape is clearly reminiscent of the EQS, with a slippery profile that will undoubtedly contribute to a low drag coefficient. Like the statelier model, the EQE also gets the brand's Digital Light headlamps, but the daytime running light signature is model-specific, appearing as arrows pointed inwards and without a light band in the middle.
As for the rear, the taillights get a distinctive 3D-effect design that is similar to the EQS, which is already known from earlier teasers. Other exterior cues shown include a large Mercedes-Benz grille badge that integrates a camera, surrounded by trim that has mini logos on it.
Moving inside, the EQE once again shares similarities with the EQS, sporting a nearly identical dashboard layout that consists of a digital instrument cluster and a large touchscreen. The latter is linked to the Mercedes-Benz User Experience (MBUX) system and is accompanied by slim air vents that extend across the dash to the doors. Elsewhere, the steering wheel and positioning of the engine start button are similar to the EQS, as what we've seen previously.
Built on the same Electric Vehicle Architecture (EVA) as the EQS, the EQE will reportedly arrive in two variants, including the EQE 450 with a rear electric motor, as well as the EQE 580 4Matic that packs two electric motors. We'll only get more details like outputs, range, battery type and performance when IAA Mobility kicks off in under four doors, so stay tuned.

																		hanging out via friend points

					rash92 25 Jun 2008 00:46

if you get enough friend points to hang out, do you hang out on that day or on the next day.

also, do you get the 30 stamina the day your hanging out or the day after you hang out with them.

(i.e. you get enough FP on monday, hang out on tuesday and get stamina on wednesday)

If you have enough FPs, you hang out with them the next day. Mood ring gives you the bonus the day you hang out with them.

Monday - Gather enough FPs

Tuesday - Hang out

Still Tuesday - +30 Stamina from Glowing Mood Ring

The exception would be Shorty and the Silver Hairpin, which gives you the stamina bonus the day after you hang out…

Monday - Gather enough FPs

Tuesday - Hang out

Wednesday - +100 Stamina from Silver Hairpin

It should be noted that you still get the +30 Stamina on the day you hang out with Shorty. So:

Monday - Grind enough FP.

Tuesday - Hangout w/ Shorty, +30 Stamina from Mood Ring, Cheaper Jutsu, etc.

Wednesday - +100 Stamina from Silver Hairpin. No longer hanging out with Shorty (Unless you ground more friendship with her, I suppose. Never tried it.)

Marʻī ibn Yūsuf ibn Abī Bakr Aḥmad al-Karmī (; 1580, Tulkarm – 1624, Cairo), often referred as Marʻī ibn Yūsuf al-Karmī, was a Muslim scholar and one of the most famous Hanbali scholars in the Arab world.

Q: Illegally placed  makes table rows invisible ONLY when served via AJAX OK, I'm asking for it, I know.  Please bear with me.
I have a <form> that is embedded in between some table row tags, something like this:

    foo

  <form>

    bar

  </form>

I know that is illegal placement of the form tag, but all the browsers I've tried will allow it anyhow.  I don't have control over the design of this code, so please bear with me.
When I load this page with JQuery and the JQuery UI.Layout plugin (see http://layout.jquery-dev.net/index.cfm ), the table row(s) that are enclosed by the form tag are no longer rendered.  I assume because forms don't have any display properties themselves that either JQuery or the UI.Layout plugin are forcing those rows to inherit that lack of display.
Firebug shows those rows grayed out and indented one level below the form tag, which corresponds to their (lack of) display I think.  Interestingly, when I don't use any of the JQuery stuff, Firebug shows those rows as NOT indented, but instead at the SAME level as the form tag that encloses them (and of course they are not grayed out) -- OH I also just noticed Firebug doesn't even show a closing form tag at all in this case.
I'm unsure if it's JQuery, the UI.Layout plugin, or something I've done with JavaScript that has caused this, and I'm still digging around, but there's a lot of code in those libraries, so I'd really appreciate pointers if anyone has any.
Is there a way to prevent this, or possibly force those table rows to have some display?  Maybe the form tag needs some display property placed on it so those rows inherit it?
I'm a big advocate of standards-compliant code, but sometimes the boss just won't listen.  So please spare the "fix your code" comments if that's all you've got.  I appreciate it, but that's not what I'm asking here.

A: It looks like this issue is caused by the fact that the page is being loaded via a XMLHttpRequest ("AJAX") instead of being rendered statically (and this may or may not be a Firefox issue only).  It seems to be the same as this:
http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?f=25&t=645220&start=0&st=0&sk=t&sd=a
That thread also didn't have any resolution beside resolving the malformed HTML.  It's quite annoying that the browser will render it if it is passed via a "normal" browser page request, but not when requested asynchronously and fed into the DOM via script.
Ah well, buggy code begets buggy behavior, eh?
For lack of anything else (well, there are a few JavaScript-based ideas floating around out there (such as http://federmanscripts.com/2010/01/12/form-and-table-row-nesting-workaround/ ), but these don't suit my context), I'm going with the solution proposed as a comment above by the user "mu is too short".

Teachers and parents are imploring the school board in Township High School District 113 to "stop the hemorrhaging" of highly-regarded teachers and administrators who reportedly are leaving because they feel disrespected, ignored and devalued in the district's current culture.
Scores of staff members and parents attended the school board meeting, relocated from the district office to the Deerfield High School cafeteria in anticipation of the large audience.
Leaders of the District 113 teachers' organization provided each board member a printed copy of the latest climate survey reflecting the views of 85 percent of DEA members, or 276 teachers. An electronic version of the 76-page document had been sent by e-mail that afternoon. They declined to share it with reporters.
Esgar said the results should provide the school board with any additional metrics needed to take action.
Several speakers brought up the exodus last year of Highland Park High School Principal Tom Koulentes and assistant principals Patrick Sassen, Casey Wright and Eileen McMahon, who all left for similar positions in other districts.
HPHS teacher Cathleen Case spoke of the adverse impact the culture change has had on staff members.
"I now work in a building where my professional input is seldom sought outside of my department and consequently, I no longer know my school or my colleagues and that is not good for students," Case said.
She said colleagues are so embattled, tired and overwhelmed there is little reserve left to support one another.
Margi Bordo, a Highland Park High School graduate and parent, expressed frustration at the absence of any response from the school board or superintendent.
Community anger appeared to have grown more widespread after a Facebook sounding board was launched Friday, three days before the meeting. The discussion focused on the climate issues at the two high schools.
Amy Dowell, a Highland Park High School graduate and current parent, said students are sensing teachers' frustration and can't help but be affected.
Dowell was one of several speakers who chastised the school board for ill-mannered behavior at an April 16 board meeting. At the meeting, board member David Small criticized President Michelle Culver for not enforcing a three-minute time limit for speakers addressing the board at the start of the meeting.
Dowell cited teacher departures and the large number of students requiring alternative placements for stress, anxiety and addiction as just a few of the critical issues the board should be addressing.
Though the April 16 meeting was sparsely attended, the video was circulated on social media. As of Tuesday, it had been viewed more than 1,300 times. Culver apologized for the incident at the start of the Monday meeting.
Kunal Pujara, who teaches Advanced Placement physics at Highland Park High School, told the school board he watched the video after his students brought it up in class. Pujara said he'd just told a student to stop teasing another student making a video presentation.
He said that is when students told him he should watch the April 16 meeting to see how the board members were disrespectful of each other.

Performances, Culture & Holiday Spice
A curation of theater, opera, improv and music holiday happenings throughout Tampa Bay.
BY STEPHANIE POWERS| Dec. 14, 2018
Here we are, knee-deep in the holiday season, and the parties and happy hours are stacking up. Let's hope that all that online shopping will give you more time to actually enjoy the season instead of hiding at the bottom of a nog bottle.
To give you a head start, CP Assistant Editor Julie Garisto and I picked out some unique holiday happenings by local artists and performers that will just add a pinch of jolly to your peppermint mocha latte. Some are educational, others are just silly. But none of them involve fighting the masses at the mall, The Nutcracker or lighted boat parades — you can handle that list yourself.

Alex Harris: Got Soul Holiday Tour
Alex Harris, an old-school-meets-contemporary R&B-world-touring performer, impressed us with his big soul sound last year at the Clearwater Jazz Holiday. Lucky for us, he's back to host a holiday show with swagger, backed by a formidable 7-piece band. His revue features classic soul songs from Motown, Stax and Atlantic, as well as some holiday favorites. Sat., Dec. 15, 8 p.m. Reserved seating; $30, $40. mypalladium.org, alexharrisofficial.com.–JG
Miss Bennett: Christmas at Pemberley
American Stage continues its "Live. Out Loud" season with Lauren Gunderson and Margot Melcon's ensemble comedy that provides an attractive twofer — both a sequel to Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice (sans zombies) and a holiday-themed play. Going by reviews so far, it's a charming and witty holiday show alternative — especially for Jane Austen fans. Runs through Dec. 30 at American Stage in downtown St. Petersburg. Visit americanstage.org/christmas for tickets.–JG

Every Christmas Story Ever Told (And then some)
freeFall's Theatre is one-upping the Lifetime network and packing every holiday character and plot into a 90-minute stage show. Actors Sara DelBeato, Dexter Jones and Michael Ursua exercise their acting muscles as they shred through dozens of roles to cram all the Christmas in. Shows run through Dec. 30, so you can extend the holiday if you haven't had enough merriment. 7 p.m. Wed. and Thurs. (Dec. 19, 20, 26 and 27), 8 p.m. Fri.( Dec. 14, 21 and 28), 2 p.m. and 8 p.m. Sat. (Dec. 15, 22 and 29) and 2 p.m. Sun. (Dec. 16, 23 and 30.) $25 to $50. freefalltheatre.com. –SP
A Very Misfortunate Christmas
Improv! Theatre! Murder! Spitfire Theater hosts A Very Misfortunate Christmas, an improvised murder-mystery two showings, 8 p.m., Saturdays Dec. 15 and Dec. 22. Based on the movie Clue-if you haven't seen it, you must–the audience are guests of Mr. Big's holiday party. (Not the Chris Noth Mr. Big for you Sex and the City fans.) Mr. Big is delayed, murder and hilarity ensue. There are shadow puppets and strange characters, what more do you need? $15; Recommended for 18 and up. 14 18th St S, St. Petersburg. spitfiretheater.com. –SP
Africanish: Kwanzaa and the Creation of Pan-African Identities
The Sulphur Springs Museum and Heritage Center is a gem to the neighborhood and community beyond. Located on the Hillsborough River, it serves to educate and entertain a historic place in Tampa that is sometimes forgotten. Valdosta State University Professor Tameka Hobbs, History and African American Studies, will discuss Kwanzaa and its importance in the African American community since its development in 1966 at 2 p.m. Sun. Dec 16. There will be refreshments and a prize drawing, to boot. Admission is free. 1101 E. River Cove Street, Tampa. sulphurspringsmuseum.org. –SP
The Bishop's Wife by Radio Theatre Project
Revisit or experience for the first time a touching, somewhat lesser-known holiday classic in an old-fashioned format. RTP presents the play inspired by the 1947 Cary Grant film, about a charming angel in human form entering the lives of a bishop and his wife. The script is a Lux Radio Theatre classic, performed by the Radio Theatre ensemble with full foley effects by Matt Cowley. Monday, Dec. 17, 7 p.m. at the Studio@620, St. Petersburg. $15. studio620.org. –JG
Carols of the Season
You can keep your carols classy at the Tampa Oratorio Singers take on Christmas classics with "Carols of the Season." Approximately sixty of the areas choral talent, hand-picked through auditions by director Nancy Callahan. The program includes standards "Jingle Bells," Silent Night" and "The First Noel" plus some that only the chosen should attempt like "Fum, Fum, Fum!" And "Veni, Veni, Emmanuel." Performances on both sides of the bridge: 4 p.m., Sat., Dec. 15, at Pass-a-Grille Community Church, 107 16th Ave., St. Pete Beach; and at 4 p.m., Sun., Dec. 16, at Palma Ceia Presbyterian Church, 3501 W San Jose St., Tampa. Both performances are $15 with discounted tickets for students and seniors. tostampa.org. –SP
Seasonal Sparkle, Holiday Hit Parade by the St. Petersburg Opera Company
Opera super fans and novices will both rejoice at the SPO's presentation of both classic jingles and heftier classics, such as Handel's Messiah and Tchaikovsky's Nutcracker, during their annual holiday celebration. Soloists Susan Hellman Spatafora, Rimas Karnavicius and Jackson Orchard join a chorus and orchestra for two performances at The Palladium, 253 Fifth Avenue North, St. Petersburg. 7:30 p.m. Tues., Dec 18, and 7:30 p.m. Wed., Dec. 19; $20 to $75; stpeteopera.org.–SP
White Christmas at Tampa Theatre
Though the Tampa Theatre hosts a weeklong showing of It's A Wonderful Life, my yearly tradition must involve Danny Kaye. My personal all-time favorite holiday movie White Christmas will be shown at the historic theatre at 3 p.m. Sun. Dec. 23. Watch Kaye, Bing Crosby and Rosemary Clooney dance and sing their way through the tale of helping an old friend win back his Connecticut resort business during a not so snowy, ski season. Arrive early to hear the organist play some Christmas classics on the Mighty Wurlitzer. Pro tip: if you decide to have an adult beverage before the movie next door at the sometimes very smokey bar The Hub (I recommend their potent, but tasty bloody mary) smuggle in some dry shampoo to use before going to the theatre. The surrounding movie goers will thank you. $10, $8 for members. tampatheatre.org.–SP
Holiday Strum Punk Extravaganza
Band of Sorrows frontman Jack Sprouse is wrapping up the year of hosting his monthly singer/songwriter night at Ella's Americana Folk Art Cafe by gifting us six hours of awesomeness Christmas Eve-Eve. Sprouse hosts a slew of Tampa Bay talent you can enjoy while gorging on Chicken and Waffles and Mimosas the size of a (large) baby's head. John Allen James starts it off at 2 p.m. before the massive list of the following performers go on in 20-minute increments: Joshua Reilly, Peter Nuffer, Al Torchia, Rob Osenton, Nickole McBerry, Blake Daniels, Marc Ganancias, Rodney Smith, Jeff Brawer, Lou Collazo, Dave Kibby, Scott Harrell, Shae Krispinsky, Mountain Holler, Rebekah Pulley and Will Quinlan. Have Gun Will Travel's Matt Burke finishes it all up at 8. Free. Dec. 23, 5119 N Nebraska Ave., Tampa. ellasfolkartcafe.com.–SP

New Granada's Annual Annual Xmas Night Extravaganza
New Granada's Annual Annual Xmas Night Extravaganza didn't die with the closing, and not yet re-opening, of the beloved New World Brewery, it got adopted by Crowbar for the time being. Gifts are unwrapped. Bellies are full. Dishes can wait. You have rewarded yourself with a night out of the hous, without the family. Or bring them, if they are older than 18. You know your one cousin on your mom's side can party. New Granada founder and Microgroove owner Keith Ulrey gave us a little history into the 25-year-old show. "The very first one that I can recall was 1993 at The Ritz…The next year we took it on and put on a show at Blue Chair, 1994. It also served as the record release for (his band) Pohgoh's 1st 7-inch single, so Xmas also doubles as an anniversary of New Granada Records, the label". The ruckus is being brought this year with headliners Meatwound with Station Cases, Slap of Reality and Nervous Girls. "This year's event definitely leans on the more DIY/punk/hardcore side of things," Ulrey added. Doors 7:30 p.m. Tues., Dec. 25; $10; newgranada.com. –SP

The purpose of this template is to prove guidance on both formatting and progression of ideas when drafting assignments.
The asset under review. This includes type, age, class, location (metropolitan statistical area and submarket/neighborhood). Also, include key metrics that are useful to consider when your reader is reintroduced to the deal and your new analysis included as part of this memo.
As this is a rolling assignment based on reading for each week, you will update the background section weekly throughout this course. Your background should be specific to the new information provided each week. For example, Week 3 asks students to apply debt to their scenario analysis. Use this section to inform the reader on any updates to negotiations and how this update impacted your analysis throughout. In the case of Week 3, you will want to share that the seller has partnered with a lender and also provide the terms of the debt offered. Week 4 and beyond will have unique updates to provide.
Images can help here as you deem appropriate and as needed as the deal progresses. Images may include maps, pictures of the property and surrounding location so as to provide context for your reader. The formatting of your assignments may look something like what is presented herein. However, this formatting template is meant to act as a guide when completing your work for submission at Georgetown, and in your career. Find opportunities to be creative in a manner that sets up apart from your peers.
What is the analysis telling you? What are your resulting recommendations?
It is equally as important to tell us about your perspectives on the deal; what you think and why.
In Week 2, we asked you to perform an unleveraged analysis for three asset class scenarios (Trophy, Class A, Class B). Week 3 asks to (i) review scenarios; (ii) apply the debt terms that are described in Blackboard to each scenario (iii) determine the type of investor that would be appropriate; (iv) identify the proposed returns that the project would earn. Week 4 will have novelty as will subsequent assignments.
Begin your analysis by providing a description of the respective development scenario and follow with a table that summarizes your findings. Best to have a simple, precise and clear narrative about what the reader is looking at in the table that follows your description. Also, helps to briefly explain your understanding of the assumptions that drive this analysis.
You will want to provide sufficient narrative such that your instructor(s) can easily identify where you may have made an error conceptually and help you address it immediately.
Provide bulleted notes below the table that help guide the reader in the same format as has been included here.
What would be useful comments that allow for a full understanding of your findings in the table above?
Replicate format above based on analysis performed for Class A scenario.
Replicate format above based on analysis performed for Class B scenario.
In support of your rent sensitivity analysis, your table will need to include a range of rental rates that are less than and greater than the projected rate that you concluded to earlier in this course (a range of at least 10% both positively and negatively). Projected cash flow through to disposition will change in conjunction with corresponding change in rent, as will disposition values, net proceeds, and ultimately IRR to the proposed investor. Ensure that your table has as sufficient range of rents to adequately capture the various scenarios we have asked you to run previously (Trophy rents; Class A rents; Class B rents). Provide notes as necessary that offer helpful guidance to the reader regarding your assumptions and the associated risks therein.
As above, construction costs will increase based on the various scenarios we have asked you to run (Trophy, Class A, Class B). The range of construction costs will impact the level of equity that your proposed investor will need to fund. Cash flows for each scenario will reflect rental rates per scenario type (Trophy rents…) and will ultimately impact IRR, which your table should show.
What would be useful comments that will allow for a full understanding of your findings in the table above?
As above, cap rates will be either higher or lower depending on the scenario. Buyers will pay more for better product, and less as the asset quality declines (no surprise then that Trophy will earn a lower cap rate than Class A, and Class B will earn a higher cap rate than Class A). Thus, disposition values will have a range based on range of cap rate, as will IRR.
Take a moment to reflect on your analysis above and insights that your analysis provided that should be reinforced. This is the 'therefore' section, and you are using language to motivate your firm's leadership without also coming across as overbearing. As an example for Week 3, it may be helpful to have a table that reflects the best option based on the sensitivities you generated. Ultimately each week will require new insight based on leadership's needs, so best to be flexible with your organization based on what you learned from performed analysis.
Our expectation is that you use assignments as opportunities to provide more than a summary of key metrics and also use as opportunity to concisely discuss impact on projected returns to investors based on new information provide each week.
What is the analysis telling you about risk? What are your resulting recommendations that are both realistic and can be achievable economically in the context of your investor's requirements about return rates? The purpose is to balance risk with your own solutions to continue deal flow and successfully create value.

Question 1: (10 points). (Bond valuation) Calculate the value of a bond that matures in 12 years and has $1,000 par value. The annual coupon interest rate is 9 percent and the market's required yield to maturity on a comparable-risk bond is 12 percent. Round to the nearest cent.
Question 5: (15 points). (Bond valuation relationships) Arizona Public Utilities issued a bond that pays $70 in interest, with a $1,000 par value and matures in 25 years. The markers required yield to maturity on a comparable-risk bond is 8 percent. (Round to the nearest cent.) For questions with two answer options (e.g. increase/decrease) choose the best answer and write it in the answer block.
c. What is the value of the bond if the market's required yield to maturity on a comparable-risk bond decreases to 7 percent?
g. From the findings in part e, we can conclude that a bondholder owning a long-term bond is exposed to (more/less) interest-rate risk than one owning a short-term bond.
b. You (should/should not) make the investment if your expected value of the stock is (greater/less) than the current market price because the stock would be undervalued.
b. If the firm decides to increase its retention ratio, what will happen to the value of its common stock? An increase in the retention rate will (increase/decrease) the rate of growth in dividends, which in turn will (increase/decrease) the value of the common stock.
similar shares of stock sell at multiples of 8.571 times earnings per share.


At his June 5 town hall meeting, Congressman Mast made a statement that reflects his and the right's ideology. He said that when he took the oath for Congress it was the same oath he took as a soldier — to uphold and defend the Constitution. That is, he is not in D.C. to represent us, but the Constitution.
I thought "upholding and defending the Constitution" was the job of the judicial branch. Is it not the legislative branch's role to make the laws?
I wish he or someone could answer: When he campaigned, was he asked what he thought the job entailed? Were his answer the same as the one stated at the town hall, he would have lost.
The Constitution doesn't say a lot of things. It doesn't say to pay Mr. Mast, to have an FBI, to provide the president with a jumbo jet, to build a Lincoln Memorial or a Washington Monument.
There are thousands of laws passed by Congress and ruled by the justices as being constitutional and some ruled unconstitutional.
So, I ask Mr. Mast and all you right-wingites, so-called conservatives, Republicans, and like-minded independents, why are you so inconsistent in what is constitutional and what is not?

Q: Cannot get is_valid() to go back to template with bound form In the Django docs, it says

"We call the form's is_valid() method; if it's not True, we go back to
the template with the form. This time the form is no longer empty
(unbound) so the HTML form will be populated with the data previously
submitted, where it can be edited and corrected as required."

I am trying to get this behaviour to work.
In views.py:
def test(request):
    if request.method == 'POST':
        form = TestForm(request.POST)

        if form.is_valid():
            return redirect('auctions/test.html')

    else:
        form = TestForm()
        return render(request, 'auctions/test.html', {'form': form})

In forms.py:
class TestForm(forms.Form):
    testnumber = forms.DecimalField(max_digits=1)

In test.html:
<form action="{% url 'auctions:test' %}" method="post">
    {% csrf_token %}
    {{ form }}
    <input type="submit" value="Submit">
</form>

Now, when I submit the form with a number that is more than 1 digit, is_valid() evaluates to False. When that happens, the docs says the template should be rendered with the bound form and the error. Instead, nothing happens, and I get ValueError: The view auctions.views.test didn't return an HttpResponse object. It returned None instead.

A: Your error is the last line of your views.py file is indented.
Instead of:
def test(request):
    if request.method == 'POST':
        form = TestForm(request.POST)

        if form.is_valid():
            return redirect('auctions/test.html')

    else:
        form = TestForm()
        return render(request, 'auctions/test.html', {'form': form})

It should be:
def test(request):
    if request.method == 'POST':
        form = TestForm(request.POST)

        if form.is_valid():
            return redirect('auctions/test.html')

    else:
        form = TestForm()
    return render(request, 'auctions/test.html', {'form': form})


As global medical business in the health care continues to expand, its effects continue to challenge global health equity particularly in the developing world. Increasingly government and for profit healthcare facilities are actively seeking medical tourists with an eye to tourism and to increase foreign investment. Our research in this area looks at the implications of medical tourism from many perspectives such as what are the consequences of selling health services to the global health traveller and the extent to which medical tourism affects the access to health service to its own citizens. Little is known about patient safety and quality care in transnational medical travel. It is clear that better reporting and documentation of these practices need to be enhanced if we are to have a better understanding of the true consequences and health implications of medical tourism. Our interests and research will continue to look at the ethical, social, cultural, and economic dimensions of medical tourism in today's global world.
It has been speculated that the travel of international patients from more-developed nations such as Canada to developing nations via MT is exacerbating health inequities in destination countries. Meanwhile, evidence is lacking that clearly demonstrates this is indeed the case. Alternatively, evidence is also lacking to support claims that MT is having a positive impact in developing nations through enhancing health care infrastructure and bringing revenues into the public sector. Research into MT will allow for valuable insights to be gleaned early on in the global conversation about MT, thus allowing Canadian patients to make choices regarding engaging in and ethical and equitable MT, Canadian health care providers and administrators to provide needed guidance to patients. Also allowing Canadian health policy makers to ensure that we are meeting our normative and legal obligations to improve global health equity and are not undermining efforts to expand universal health care and sustainable health system financing efforts in developing nations.


There has been a church on this site since 630, the first one would have been constructed out of wood and consisted of a chancel and nave. This was pulled down and a stone building started in 750/800. This stone building would have had a round tower and apsidal (round ended) chancel some time between 950 and the 12th century the nave was heightened and the south aisle was built. To serve it two arches were cut in the south wall.
The north door is part of the original building. It was the custom that the north door be opened and left opened during the service and until the priest left, in order to drive Satan out. But during the 13th century all churches were ordered by Pope Innocent III to have the north doors blocked up, because he decided this was mere superstition. One door jab on the north side survives in the wall, with a tiny shaft supporting a miniature Romanesque cushion capital.
The most striking survival of this early period are the wall paintings on the east wall of the nave. They show a very rare image of the Holy Trinity. This is the earliest known example of a wall painting showing the Holy Trinity in this way in Europe, and most likely unique to Britain.
Several further alterations took place in the 15th century. The aisle was demolished and the arches filled in, a new door was made in the south wall. A large window with decorated tracery was inserted at the east end of the north nave wall. In the 15th Century the chancel was almost doubled in length to 26 feet and given a square end. This chancel survived until the 1760's when it was then considered to be in a ruinous state demolished and the present chancel built.
There are two nave alters one either side of the nave arch which would have been used for low mass, these are presently blocked up and enclosed. Originally they would have been open in order for the congregation to view the proceedings in the chancel. These low mass alters represent a very rare surviving Celtic influence for an English church and is thought to be a surviving part of the church that was built in the 8th century. The rest of the original chancel was slightly narrower than the nave, and appears to be bonded into the east end of the nave showing that they were built at the same time. This can just be seen where the surviving masonry breaks the surface of the ground. Remains of the east end foundation (just below ground level) have been discovered, and confirms that the chancel had a rounded semi -circular east end (apsidal). This was the normal practice in the 10th century.
The present nave is estimated to have been built as early as the 8th century. The small round-headed double splayed windows in the north and south walls are also typical of this period. Another visible clue to the early dating of this part of the building is the use of long and short work at the corners of the nave , together with the use of the roman bricks. (Which look like very thick tiles). On the south side of the east wall and the north side of the west wall you can see the original line of the nave roof. The semicircular arch between the chancel and the nave also dates from around this time.
The tower is estimated to have been built in the 14th century perhaps earlier, replacing a round Anglo-Saxon tower. (Typical of this area at that time). Evidence for the round tower is the higher archway leading to the tower. The tower has been added to in height over the years. The first two sections are original, the second was added around 100 years later and in 1630 a steeple was added, however this was blown down in 1665.

Historic Restoration & Conservation
Specialists devoted to preserving the beauty of stained glass.
Stained Glass Restoration is a process where a leaded stained glass window or an individual section requires extensive restoration to bring back the structural strength and integrity of the leaded support matrix. The actual glasses that are stained, painted, etched and enameled glasses are considered to be the original artwork, the lead is merely a structural component to hold all of the glasses in place. Whenever and wherever possible the original glasses should be preserved and maintained to protect the artwork. Therefore, the replacement of the lead while maintaining original glasses will still allow your window to be original and preserve the historical value of the window.
A true Restoration will be a much more detailed and precise process than a simple releading. Releading is simply the swapping out of the lead cames while a restoration goes farther and is designed to preserve original and historic artwork in a reversible manner and should be done with a "do no harm" approach. Cathedral Crafts understands the difference is in the smallest of details and that our dedicated team of expert artisans and craftsmen will ensure your restoration is executed with the utmost of care. Our skilled team of artisans is capable of full reproduction of hand painted glass including enameling and the application of stains.


Lin-Manuel Miranda got the 44th president to perform the words of the 1st president.
Lin-Manuel Miranda closed out 2018 by dropping a Hamilton remix featuring none other than former president Barack Obama. It's a gospel-inspired take on "One Last Time," a song that finds Alexander Hamilton and George Washington singing about Washington's precedent-setting decision not to run for a third term of office. The number includes a recitation from Washington's real-life Farewell Address, and this time Obama did the honors.
"Though, in reviewing the incidents of my administration, I am unconscious of intentional error, I am nevertheless too sensible of my defects not to think it probable that I may have committed many errors," Obama reads. "I shall also carry with me the hope that my country will view them with indulgence and that after 45 years of my life dedicated to its service with an upright zeal, the faults of incompetent abilities will be consigned to oblivion, as I myself must soon be to the mansions of rest."
The Obamas have made it plain over the years that they're pretty big Hamilton-heads, so it's unlikely that Miranda had to do a lot of arm twisting to get the former president on his track. Miranda and Hamilton cast member Christopher Jackson performed the song at the White House near the end of Obama's term in 2016—an appropriate time to sing an ode to the peaceful transition of power. The only part of this recording that disappoints is that Obama doesn't sing even a single bar. Come on, we all know 44's got pipes.
