Veronika Scheljagin and Nima Soltani from our Frankfurt office, together with Michaela Lambertz and Sebastian Theißen of the TH Köln (University of Applied Sciences) presented about Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) at the 2019 Greenbuild Europe in Amsterdam, Netherlands. Greenbuild Europe is the premier annual conference for European green building professionals.
The session gave an overview about the LCA process and the benefits LCA offers in terms of climate and environmental protection. Based on 2 project examples, they showcased the whole process from the initial motivation to perform an LCA and information gathering to methods to calculate the environmental impacts and how to present the results to the project team to facilitate the process of reducing the environmental impact. The processes for the 2 projects differed significantly as they are located in different locations – Germany and the US.
LCA is a valuable tool to express the environmental impact potential for every building as it considers a wide range of factors. The most common environmental impact potentials are acid rain, smog, eutrophication of our ecosystem and moreover the global warming potential to name a few, all of which have to be reduced within the Paris Agreement goals.
The impacts of the embodi ed emission can be reduced by carefully specifying and selecting materials that are local, have a high recycled content and long service life. This is especially important for the structural elements of a building, which have a significant impact on the embodied emission. Even better of course would be to reuse existing building structures. Besides the embodied emission LCA considers the operational emission a building is emitting within its life cycle over 60 years.
As an example, a typical office building in Germany with an energy use of 35.5 kBTU/sf-yr (112 kWh/m2-yr) has a total CO2– emission of 10.4 lbs/sf-yr (51 kg/m2-yr) including embodied and the operational emissions. The ratio of embodied and operational emission is approximately 1:3 in this case and gives a clear direction to reduce CO2– emissions. The focus is on operational emissions by minimize energy demand, selecting low – carbon energy sources and efficient energy production.
A question we asked the audience during the session. What do you think the CO2 emissions of a LEGO piece are? The solution is provided at the bottom of the article, the result of the audience survey is shown below.
Furthermore, the session gave an outlook on what the future holds for LCA using BIM. With enough detail BIM-LCA integration empowers the decision-making process in early design stages by making environmental impacts of different building materials transparent. However, to date few BIM are set up in a way that allows the automatic transfer of information and immediate feedback of changes on the LCA.

Q: MBTilesWriter java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError slice-sqlite-jdbc-3.8.7 im using the mbtiles4j writer inside an Android App to create a new .mbtiles file in an AsyncTask class.
Here is my java code:
private class FetchData extends AsyncTask<String, Void, String> {
  private Exception exception;

  @Override
  protected String doInBackground(String... routeSelected) {
    MBTilesWriter w = null;
    String filePath = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory().getAbsolutePath() + "/MyRoutes/" + routeSelected;

build.gradle looks as follows

    compile 'org.xerial:sqlite-jdbc:3.8.7'
    compile 'commons-io:commons-io:2.5'

mbtiles4j is actually included inside my project: see screenshot. There were other problems with including it through build.gradle, so I managed to workaround it like this. The mbtilesreader works fine!
Edit: disabled instant run, error code is now: couldn't find "libsqlitejdbc.so"

A: Solution thanks to @Morrison Chang and @cCOOK
I had to rewrite the MBTilesWriter for specific Android implementation.

Writer Matt Rager adapted the feature screenplay based on the novel.
James Franco has assembled an all-star cast that includes Selena Gomez, Vincent D'Onofrio, Robert Duvall, Ed Harris, Bryan Cranston and Danny McBride for his adaptation of the John Steinbeck novel In Dubious Battle.
AMBI Group — the movie development, finance, production and distribution group owned and run by Andrea Iervolino and Lady Monika Bacardi — is financing the film and producing with Rabbit Bandini Productions and That's Hollywood Pictures.
Writer Matt Rager (As I Lay Dying) adapted the feature screenplay based on the novel.
Principal photography on the film will commence in March.
The movie continues Franco's fascination with Steinbeck; the actor-turned-filmmaker recently made his Broadway debut with a revival of Steinbeck's Of Mice and Men.
The novel, published in 1936, is the story of man who tries to organize a strike by fruit pickers in Southern California.
AMBI will introduce the project in Berlin and handle international sales. AMBI will co-represent the film's domestic rights with CAA.


Is Your Air Conditioner Safe From Florida Copper Thieves?
Florida thieves have an eye on your outside air conditioning unit.
Because they want to scrap it and sell the copper inside.
In 2011 in Sarasota, FL, a trio of thieves stole components from ACs from 5 unoccupied homes—in one night. Years later and these types of thefts still happen. In 2014, thieves stole an AC unit from an Outreach Center in Orlando, FL—presumedly for the copper inside.
Why all the clamor for copper?
It's simple: Copper's price has risen to about $3.00 per pound. So thieves in Florida and all around the nation have more incentive to steal it from air conditioner units at businesses and unoccupied homes and then sell it to a scrapyard.
However, the money thieves make (around a $100) is relatively small compared to the cost of repairing/replacing your air conditioner ($1000s). So how do you protect your AC from these meticulous metal scrappers?
Here are 3 solid solutions for protecting your home's outside unit.
These steel cages act as a barrier against not only thieves but also large debris that could damage the AC during Florida's hurricane season. Just make sure the AC has enough space around it for proper airflow. Otherwise it will run inefficiently.
Thieves won't try anything sneaky when the they're easily seen. Put motion sensors around the AC that will turn on lights around the AC.
The last thing you want is to come home to see your AC has been stolen or stripped of copper. So protect your air conditioner from copper thieves by investing in some protection.
Have any air conditioner-related questions? Ask our experts for help.

The 6 Things Everyone Needs to Know About the Big Data Economy
I recently blogged about sofware agents, mostly musing about how to reconcile their inherent rationality with our lack thereof as human beings.

But today I noticed an article by John Markoff in the New York Times entitled "A Software Secretary That Takes Charge ", which considers some companies trying to build services based on such agents. The article called my attention to the recent death of AI pioneer Oliver Selfridge, who coined the term "intelligent agents" and devoted much of his career to trying to make them a reality.
Markoff notes that "efforts to build useful computerized assistants have consistently ended in failure", which raises the question of why any student of history is still investing in this area. Markoff quotes an answer from Rearden Commerce founder / CEO Patrick Grady:
The promise of the Web 2.0 era of the Internet has been the interconnection of Web services. Mr. Grady says he has a far easier task today because the heavy lifting has been done by others.
"This is the connective tissue that sits on top of the Web and brings you more than the sum of the parts," he said. "I set out to deliver on the longstanding 'holy grail of user-centric computing,' a 'personal Internet assistant.'"
In other words, intelligent agents are possible now because of Web 2.0 and service-oriented architecture. An interesting theory–and I can certainly accept it in theory. But I'm curious how it plays out in practice. It seems to me that there's a lot of "heavy lifting" still waiting to be done.

Part X—an alternative to bankruptcy
PIAs can lead to a quicker and higher return to creditors
It is well-known that companies in financial crisis have options to deal with insolvency, such as voluntary administration and Deed of Company Arrangements. But it is lesser-known that a similar mechanism is available to individuals.
Part X (part 10) of the Bankruptcy Act allows an individual (the debtor) to enter into a binding arrangement with their creditors to avoid bankruptcy. The arrangement is called a personal insolvency agreement (PIA).
Some advantages for the debtor are:
they get immediate relief from their debts
they avoid some of the restrictions and stigma of bankruptcy
the PIA binds all creditors, including those that voted against the proposal
that only property offered in the proposed PIA is available to creditors.
Some advantages for the creditors are:
an independent insolvency specialist reviews the debtor's affairs and assesses the likely returns under bankruptcy and under the proposed PIA
the PIA should provide a higher dividend than in a bankruptcy
the dividend is often paid much sooner
costs of administering a PIA are usually much less than the costs of a bankruptcy
At Worrells we administer approximately 400 PIAs nationally at any one time.
In one case, 'Mr B' fell into financial stress following some unsuccessful property developments, despite his significant income as a civil engineer.
Mr B attempted to make informal arrangements with his creditors, but was unable to win their complete support—meaning that any dissenting creditor could apply to court to bankrupt Mr B. To avoid such action, he appointed a controlling trustee under Part X of the Bankruptcy Act and proposed a PIA.
Mr B's proposed PIA offered an immediate lump sum payment from a third party. Further, some related creditors would not participate in the dividend under the PIA—meaning funds would be distributed to a smaller pool of creditors than in a bankruptcy scenario.
We investigated Mr B's affairs and prepared a detailed report to creditors outlining the estimated returns under the proposed PIA and under a bankruptcy.
In a bankruptcy, Mr B would have to contribute 50% of his after-tax income, above a statutory threshold, for the three-year bankruptcy term. A small dividend would be paid in the bankruptcy scenario, but it would have been paid over three years and spread across a larger creditor pool.
Under a PIA the dividend rate was higher, partly due to the lower costs of administering the PIA and the pool of participating creditors being smaller. Further, the dividend would be paid immediately, rather than over three years.
A meeting of Mr B's creditors was held to vote on his proposed PIA.
The threshold for acceptance of a PIA is high (a majority in number of creditors voting and 75% of the value of debts is needed) and in this case the creditors met the threshold and as a result Mr B's proposal was accepted.
The Part X process, while lesser-known, is a useful solution for individuals who are unable to manage their debts. It also often produces a quicker and higher return to creditors in contrast to bankruptcy.

Flood Stage Warning: above 35BG paddlers are advised to stay off the river. Limited access. Most landings and approach roads will be underwater. Most islands will be gone. No easy camping. All sandbars will be covered. Fast waters with many hazards. All islands and landings will be surrounded by flooded forests full of snags, strainers, sawyers and all other dangerous conditions associated with floodwater moving through trees. Docks, wharves, dikes and any other man-made objects will create strong whirlpools, violent boils, and fast eddies. Towboats will create larger waves than usual. Freighters will have to push harder to get upstream which results in even bigger waves. The Rivergator will not describe the river and its islands at any levels above flood stage.
Easy walking to downtown Baton Rouge, but no road access. Possible resupply from here for water & food. Possible meet place.
Baton Rouge, the capital of Louisiana, was founded on top of the 50-foot Istrouma Bluff on the east bank of the Mississippi River, the last of the Mississippi Loess Bluffs. This last bluff coincides with the edge of the Pleistocene Escarpment. Beyond this point there are no bluffs, and all of the land you see was created in the last 7,000 years by the annual flood and sediment accretion process.
The riverfront here is an easy and convenient way for paddlers to access downtown Baton Rouge on foot, but use common sense safety practices. Originally called "Istrouma" by the native people, Baton Rouge means "red stick" and refers to a pole adorned with animal carcasses placed on the high ground in Baton Rouge marking the dividing line between the tribal lands of the Houmas to the north and the Bayou Goula to the south. This marker is thought to actually have been located on Scott's Bluff near the present location of Southern University (as previously described -- go to that listing at LBD 235 in previous Rivergator section).
Once you maneuver past the tankers at ExxonMobil and downstream past Seariver Maritime, and then between fleeted barges at Capital Fleet, paddlers are welcomed to the capital city of Louisiana with the words BATON ROUGE in giant red lettering set on the riverfront seawall with a big red Fleur-de-Lis in between. We're not certain who these words are written for, because this is not the place to make a landing, unless you're just stopping for a quick run around downtown with no intentions of pulling out or camping. Not a good access point to meet your shuttle. (Long walk over railroad tracks to nearest parking). You could make a quick rendezvous here if you only needed to meet someone for a quick hand-off or change of crew. But you shouldn't leave your vessel here unattended. (NOTE: your best land access is from Glass Beach Boat Ramp, downstream 1.5 miles RBD just past the I-10 bridge. See below for complete description).
Nearby over the seawall is found the Shaw Center for the Arts, Poor Boy Lloyd's, The State Capitol, State Welcome Center, State Library, State Capital Park, the Old Governor's Mansion, and the Old Louisiana State Capitol (that Mark Twain found so offensive he thought it should be dynamited!). WIFI can be found at the library, and most of the downtown cafes. For water resupply try your luck with the first friendly looking business you come across. The nearest grocery is Matherne's Market at 440 N 3rd St on the corner of 3rd and Florida Blvd. Hardware and boat repair supplies as well as paddles, pfds, and camping gear are all available in Baton Rouge but will require traveling further from the river to at least the mid city area. See below for current list (2015).
For shuttles, resupplies, parking your vehicle, and logistics on the Lower Mississippi River, contact Baton Rouge natives Paul or Michael Orr. The Orr brothers have been providing support services for decades on the Lower Mississippi River, and are the experts on the stretch downstream from Baton Rouge to the Gulf of Mexico.
Sorry, ignore the previous comment about the launch, I got ahead of myself. FYI - The old crumbling municipal dock has been developed. Search the internet for "the water campus" or "water institute of the gulf" for more info. Awesome site.
There is road access to the river in Baton Rouge. A crude boat ramp is on the east bank, 400ft South of the Horace Wilkinson Bridge near downtown. Road access to the batture and ramp is at the end of South Blvd.
Please look at Mile 138 RBD Reserve. City of Reserve, La. is located on the left side of the river descending.
Please look at mile 97LBD Gretna. City of Gretna is located on the right side of the river descending.
Please look at mile 99.8 LBD Magellan Marrero Terminal Docks. City of Marrero is located on the right bank decending.
River Mile 228 LSU Tiger Stadium is listed as RBD. It should be LBD 228.


One of the many sections of the dissertation, which one can decide the share of an applicant in discipline, will be the part of a conclusion. The actual final outcome to the dissertation characterizes not merely the dissertation employment, but the article author him or her self, as a general specialist, allowed to resolve the issues set in the review of the dissertation. Dissertation really is a new participation to scientific discipline all this share will be precisely articulated through the final thoughts.
What data is pointed out so?
The conclusion must not perform the a conclusion and generalizations of each and every sectors, findings are manufactured with the total give good results, that has been, it mirrors the important and new, identifying do the trick from formerly executed scientific studies on the subject.
The conclusion can often be constructed as outlined by the construction of research component within dissertation scientific study. Also, the medical novelty of an investigation, the theoretical and effective great importance for this dissertation deliver the results ought to be reflected. Final thoughts on the medical novelty of employment should not be duplicated with launch, in a concrete manner stand for the gap from in the past executed does the job.
Final thoughts by the theoretical and useful advantages of this dissertation research would be wise to ensure the depth of information for this applicant, his outlook in the neighborhood of ??researching. The author's suggestions connected with the usage of the effects of your dissertation examine really are a sign of the creator for a expert.
It has to be known that, in general, the vast majority of authorities individuals upload their verdict on the shield by looking at the ambitions and aims associated with the analysis and also the words in the verdict. So, it happens to be recommended to maximum extent available as clear out dialect, and not simply factors, to provide from the a conclusion the whole set of primary solutions to the tasks and exhibit the controlled novelty of our explore, the theoretical and useful value in the dissertation labor.
What to do with the details found on the studies?
Be cautious around the data gathered while in the technological explore. Ahead of the play with it starts, contemplate carefully over the process develops that you will make intermediate good results. If these varieties tend to be found to become malfunctioning – adjust them. You want to keep results of the research to be able to thoroughly grasp all the info among the play around by returning to them within a few years, reviewing them, finalizing compared to other ways. Never make use of your mind, remedy the various intricacies in writing and on your pc.
and many other scholar people.
Think with care for people who have not executed any background work earlier (when authoring training course documents, degree or diploma perform the job, during the duration of observe or during this process with the pedagogical employment). Conceivably a lot of them may be in the dissertation.
In many instances through the dissertation, the amount of conducted studies is provided. It really is mentioned in the number of things, removed from them indications, for example specifications, the full wide variety of hours and hours invested on dimensions, etc. Any time a controlled review is straightforward, you can be unable to estimate these quantities for the remaining period from the researching organizing. If scientific research is as well voluminous, record very close info ahead of time so it fails to minimize the meaning of give good results carried out because forgetfulness.


Besides being a vast continent full of hot, tanned inhabitants and dramatic geographical landscapes, Brazil has an overwhelming number of musical styles. You wll probably only think of one, samba. But don't worry if you're not an expert on the subject. That's what your BRAZA! fam is here for, to guide you through a tropical experience, this time presenting you with Samba Rock, A Celebration of Brazilian Soul.
Samba rock is the funkiest and most soulful musical movement Brazil has ever experienced. It emerged in the 60's, becoming very popular with the voice of the infamous Jorge Ben, who started to tune in to american genres and decided that the samba beat combined well with bebop, jazz and soul, giving fuel to a fever that is still alive today, all over the world.
Contemporary groups like Zuco 103, Seu Jorge, Farofa Carioca, Curumin and Clube do Balanço were influenced by and had their sounds shaped after samba rock. Many other composers from Jorge Ben's circle were copying his groove and helping push the style to the top of the charts throughout the 60's and 70's. Erasmo Carlos, Trio Mocotó, Bebeto, Tim Maia, all scored big hits that gave additional strength to the genre.
BRAZA!'s host and co-founder, Antonio Guedes, is the one of the only current musicians in the Bay Area who is an expert in the genre. Not only does he write and arrange samba rock songs, but he also brings back both classics, as well as rare and obscure jams never heard before on stage. Antonio is a former member of the psychedelic afrobeat band Afrolicious. He has traveled stateside with the chilean phenomenon Francisca Valenzuela, and has formed many of his own soul flavored projects, here in San Francisco and in Brazil.
So don't miss this one! It will be one of a kind cultural event. Going down on Thursday, October 22nd, at Elbo Room. Doors open at 9:30pm. DJs Elan (resident) and Izzy Wiser (Afrolicious, Hi-Life) will elevate your mood to higher heights.
Carnaval, aka Mardi Gras, is a Spring festival celebrating the rebirth of life. This year's rebirth in San Francisco comes with a special treat as one of the "SF Hottest Monthly Parties" – as selected by SFWEELY readers, returns with its iconic festivities known as BRAZA! for a Carnaval celebration with another Mission all time favorite weekly party – Afrolicious, at Elbo Room, on May 21st. The lineup features the world-class DJ/Producer, Marcelinho da Lua, the man behind the prolific electronic Brazilian group, Bossacucanova and a live performance by the Bay Area Brazilian All Stars, composed of members of various local bands, like Dona Francisca, Boca do Rio, Antonio Guedes (BRAZA!'s host), and more, at the SF Carnaval 2015 Kick-Off Celebration. A percentage of the profits will go to the Hamilton Family Center, which mission is to end homelessness for families and individuals in the San Francisco Bay Area.
Marcelinho's band, Bossacucanova, is most notable for having been nominated for a Latin Grammy award in 2002 for Best Brazilian Contemporary Pop Album for their release Brasilidade. They are the godfathers of combining traditional bossa nova with electronica, and among the group's members is Márcio Menescal, son of bossa nova legend and pioneer Roberto Menescal. His solo career is as equally successful as his group, with two awarded albums which are mandatory on Brazilian and international dance floors: Tranqüilo, Marcelinho's debut solo record from 2004, and Social, from 2007, both winners of the Brazilian Music Tim Awards as Best Electronica Album. The debut disc also granted him two Best Electronic Video awards by MTV Brazil, for the tracks "Cotidiano" (2004) and "Refazenda" (2005). With Tranqüilo, Da Lua comes up with a new approach to Brazilian electronica, creating grooves that go way beyond easy radio models. Working with artists like João Donato, Seu Jorge, Black Alien, Luis Carlos Ramos, Bi Ribeiro and Mart'nália, among others, Tranqüilo showed to the public and the critic that besides being an excellent DJ, Marcelinho is a producer and musician whose name has already been established in the contemporary Brazilian music grounds.
Part of the money the artists will raise will go to the non-profit organization Hamilton Family Center, which has been established since 1985, and has helped in risk individuals and families, who are facing, or about to face, homelessness. Their solution to solve this problem is primarily by re-housing families quickly and appropriately, and providing limited follow up to support housing stability. BRAZA! recognizes the value of such organizations in our community, especially in times like the one we are living in right now, with families being kicked-out of their homes, creating much broader issues for our city, and would like to start making a difference in our social environment.
If you are wondering what braza – which is an adaptation of the Portuguese word brasa – means, it is ember. But, it's also a nickname native Brazilians use to refer to their motherland. The event BRAZA! is exactly what the red burning charcoal represents: a celebration of the heritage and diversity of Brazilian music, and the warm culture of the country it comes from. When we say diversity we mean not just the cadence of the internationally cultivated samba beat, but also everything from Brazilian funk, Tropicália, hip hop, forró (from northeast of Brazil), MPB (Popular Brazilian Music), house, boogie, soul, disco, and bossa nova. The party started back in 2010, when a DJ, and first time club owner, Kento Tanaka, approached his 3 friends Antonio Guedes (musician), Elan Kamesar (DJ) and Vanka (DJ), to create an event that had one thing in mind: to make people sweat to temperatures manufactured and controlled by turntables, and to travel south, without even leaving the northern hemisphere. And so they did. Soon the party became a must-go in the City. DJs from all over the map have come down for a chance to play to a crowd hungry for tropical sets.
Here they are again, feeding the city with more hot lineups and eccentric vibes we all need to preserve and support in this ever changing environment we live on, so that we can always enjoy the diversity this city is known for, for years to come.
Event Date: Thursday, May 21st.
Doors: 9pm DJs at 9PM Show starts at 10pm.
Where: Elbo Room, 647 Valencia Street, San Francisco, CA 94110.

How To Get Calcium Without Dairy: Food To Include in Your Diet
It is true that cheeses, cream, and yogurt are a great source of calcium, but not everyone can consume dairy. People who are lactose intolerant tend to have an upset stomach whenever they consume anything that contains milk, especially from cows.
People with lactose intolerance are predisposed to low calcium intake because of their limited options. But that doesn't mean they can't have their daily requirement of calcium. Calcium is not only derived from dairy products. There are many ways on how to get calcium without dairy.
How To Get Calcium Without Dairy
Here are some dairy-free sources of calcium that can supply your needs.
Turnip Greens (Dahon ng Singkamas)
Turnip greens boiled without salt contain about 137mg of calcium in a 100g serving. They are packed with Omega-3 which aids in fighting inflammation, improving eyesight, and balancing cholesterol levels.
One-half cup of bok choy can supply 80mg of calcium. Aside from calcium, bok choy also contains vitamin K, which is an important blood-clotting agent that can aid in healing especially in injury and surgery. Bok choy also possesses sulfur-based compounds that can fight off oxidation, keeping the cells healthy.
One cup of broccoli can supply 60mg of calcium. Broccoli also contains Vitamin C which can improve metabolism, and boost immunity. Broccoli also has anti-aging and anti-inflammatory properties.
Kale or Kina
One cup of cooked kale can supply 150 mg of calcium. Kale contains vitamin K, which is good for people who are healing from an injury. Kale is also high in Vitamins A and C which is good for the skin, vision, and immunity.
Okra contains about 82mg of calcium per 100 grams serving. It contains a lot of vitamins and it also contains fiber, which aids in digestion and slows down the release of glucose which is great for diabetics.
Cooked spinach contains about 245mg of calcium per cup but only a fraction of this is absorbed by the body because of the oxalates found in spinach. Alternating spinach with other calcium-rich greens is proven to be beneficial.
Collared Greens (Bersa)
Half a cup of cooked collard greens contains about 175 mg of calcium. Collared greens contain vitamins and minerals that can be beneficial against cancer development in the breast, bladder, colon, lungs, and ovaries.
Seeds, Nuts, and Beans
There is about 100mg of calcium in a serving of baked beans. Baked beans are a great source of plant-based protein and fiber. Studies also show that baked beans can lower cholesterol and improve blood cell production.
In one cup of kidney beans, there could be as much as 359 mg of calcium. Kidney beans also contain a good amount of magnesium which can help prevent high blood pressure, diabetes, muscle spasms, and migraines.
A cup of whole almonds has 246 mg of calcium. This healthy snack also contains healthy fats, fiber, Vitamin E, and magnesium. Almonds are great at satiating hunger pangs and promoting weight loss.
Sesame seeds are one of the best dairy-free sources of calcium with at least 87mg of calcium for every tablespoon. These also contain plant compounds that lower cholesterol and promote better blood pressure control.
How to get calcium without dairy? Chia seeds are highly rich in calcium, containing about 136mg for every 2 tablespoons of chia seeds. They absorb water quickly which is why they are typically prepared with liquid foods and drinks. Chia seeds have very little flavor, which makes them easy to add to almost any dish.
Roasted soybean nuts contain 230mg of calcium while boiled green soybeans contain 180mg of calcium. Soybeans are an excellent source of fiber and protein.
Swordfish contains about 6mg of calcium per 100-gram serving but it contains a lot of vitamin D, which promotes calcium absorption resulting in good bone health. Getting enough of vitamin D is also essential in how to get calcium without dairy.
Tuna is another fish loaded with vitamin D that can aid in calcium absorption. This fish contains about 37mg of calcium every 100 grams.
Pink canned salmon with edible bones
A can of pink salmon contains about 181mg of calcium. Salmon also contains Omega-3 and selenium which help in maintaining proper thyroid function.
Canned sardines with edible bones
A can of sardines contains about 325 mg of calcium. Sardines are also an excellent source of protein, vitamin B12 and Omega-3 fatty acids.
100 grams of tofu contains about 350mg of calcium. Aside from being a popular substitute for meat, tofu also contains several vitamins and minerals including iron, phosphorus, and manganese. Eating tofu regularly can reduce the risk of obesity and cardiovascular diseases.
Orange Juice fortified with calcium and vitamin D
For people who might not have the luxury to prepare their meals or have calcium-rich food available, orange juice fortified with calcium and vitamin D can be a great alternative. This juice is not just an excellent example of dairy-free sources of calcium, but it is also rich in vitamin C. Vitamin C is an antioxidant that keeps the cells healthy.
Milk and dairy products are not the only sources of calcium. Calcium is found in many other foods such as vegetables, seeds, beans, and fish. Vegetables that are rich in calcium include kale, okra, and spinach. Seeds and beans are also an excellent source of calcium. Other food such as canned fish, tofu, and fortified orange juice can be consumed as a source of calcium. Consult your dietitian or nutritionist for more info.

Nathaniel's Retirement

Elly Pitts (BSc Hons DIP MSFC)
Elly was very fortunate to have been chosen to work alongside Nathaniel Underwood, she shadowed Nathaniel full time until his recent retirement and received arguably the best tuition on saddle fitting and repair available in the country.
As a horse owner herself, Elly understands that all owners need to consider input from vets, trainers, physiotherapists, saddlers, and rider influence in providing our horses with the best possible environment in order to maximise performance and alleviate any potential problems.
From her education in equestrianism, Elly had experienced first-hand the dramatic influence the fitting of a correct saddle can have on both horse and rider. She realised that her ultimate aim was to become a top class saddler. In order to fulfill this aim Elly has been working and training alongside Nathaniel full time. She is a qualified Master Saddle fitting Consultant and also holds the Society of Master Saddlers Flocking qualification.
Elly is from Exeter, Devon. Elly's mother has bred some top class show and event horses, so Elly grew up immersed in this equestrian environment, developing a passion for the welfare and performance of horses. In her late teens, Elly worked as an event groom at international 4 star level alongside some of the industry's top professionals and thus achieved a thorough understanding of the array of skills involved in providing each horse with an individual all round care programme essential for the attainment of its full potential.
Elly then went on to gain a First Class Honours Degree in Equine and Agricultural Business Management at the Royal Agricultural University in Cirencester. This took her to America and Europe to further her education at some of the best equestrian education centres in the world, such as the Cadre Noir at the National School of Equitation in Saumur, France and the Kentucky Equine Research Centre in America.
Nathaniel Underwood (now retiered from saddle fitting)
Nathaniel Underwood is recognised as one of the most experienced saddle fitters working in the UK today. His skills in the field of saddlery are exceptional in that he is both a horseman and a master craftsman. From an early age Nathaniel has felt an empathy with horses and has dedicated his working life to making and fitting saddles and creating innovative designs which help to minimise the inevitable restrictions that a rider and saddle can cause for a horse.
Nathaniel is a past president of the Society of Master Saddlers and served for over 10 years on their Executive Committee. It was during Nathaniel's term as president that the Society of Master Saddlers instituted the Qualified Saddle Fitters Certificate and Nathaniel has been a Lecturer and Course Leader for this qualification for many years. He is also a Liveryman of the Worshipful Company of Saddlers through Redemption of the Trade.
Following the sale of his retail business in 2004, Nathaniel has been concentrating on his work as a remedial saddler both based at his premises in Somerset and throughout the Westcountry. He sees many horses through referrals from vets, chartered physiotherapists and chiropractors. Often these are horses with long term or ongoing problems which other saddle fitters have not been able to solve. These horses need owners, health professionals, trainers and a saddler who will work together to maximise their performance and maintain their welfare. Although Nathaniel has worked with some of the most experienced riders in the country to fit saddles for top international competition horses he finds it just as satisfying to improve the comfort of a beloved family friend.

How Are Mega-Cities Like New York Implementing Sustainability?
Another edition of The Energy Gang, transcription-style.
Stephen Lacey: What's up, New York? I presume we have some fans of The Energy Gang in the house? It happens to be New York Climate Week; President Trump is in town. I think he's bouncing around the city checking out events on deforestation and emissions trading policies. We have some tickets for him at the box office but I think there was a conflicting event at the Russian Embassy tonight. We'll see if he comes.


I'm so sorry for neglecting you... - ASTA(r) is Born.
Thanks to my super good friend Debmark that I was reminded of my long-forgotten love--my Yashica Electro 35 GSN camera. Super vintage.
My uncle gave this gem to me back in college, when I was still studying film at UPFI.
Yashica, don't you worry I'll pimp you up. Soon.

Q: Configuring Siri to tell me the things I want to know in the morning Is there a way for me to configure my MacBook or iPhone so that Siri will tell me my schedule for the day and other relevant information I want to know (like what the weather will be for the day) without having to ask multiple questions?
Ideally, I could just say "Siri, tell me the plan for the day" and she would respond with something like "You have a meeting from 2-3 and 4-4:15. It is going to be rainy today with highs in the upper 70s."

A: Welcome to iOS 12!
Once iOS 12 is released you will be able to use Siri shortcuts to add a phrase and have it do what you want for example.
"Good morning" could

*

*Greet you

*Tell you the weather

*Tell you your schedule for the day

*Send a good morning text to your family

*etc.

all just with "Good morning".
I will edit this answer to include the step by step to achieve exactly what you want to do as soon as iOS 12 is released.
iOS 12 is planned to be released early fall).

A: Not sure that Siri is a true 'assistant' like Alexa, etc. I've previously researched the query in the past...


DICOM Structured reports are DICOM SOP Instances, organised just the same way as images etc., but which hold reports rather than images. They are typically therefore only a few kilobytes in size. They contain all the same indexing information as images, and therefore fit into the standard 4 level DICOM Hierarchy, complete with their own "psuedo-modality" of SR. They live with the same study (and therefore have the same Study UID) as the images to which they relate, but as the DICOM rules only allow one modality per series, they (like Presentation States) sit in their own series.


Imagine this – you dial a toll-free number, navigate through the IVR gauntlet and finally reach Steve, a friendly voice on the other side who'd love to help. The only problem is, Steve works in billing and is ill-equipped to handle the troubleshooting questions you're about to throw his way. You really need to speak to Susan in technical support that happens to work for an outsourced call center thousands of miles away.
Call transfers are not enabled. This scenario will require the customer to dial back into an alternative phone number in order to reach their desired party. This undesirable customer experience will likely result in frustration, brand degradation and, ultimately, customer churn and revenue loss.
Home-grown call transfers. In this scenario, calls are "transferred" by bridging Susan's call center to Steve's call center (i.e. hairpinning the call). This accomplishes the desired outcome; however, it can result in audio degradation, including call latency or an echo. In addition, it is capital intensive, as the bridged call consumes three customer ports.
Network-based call transfers. Here, the interaction is the same as in the second scenario but it is less resource intensive, without the audio quality pitfalls. The network-based call transfer enables efficient port utilization by freeing up the first port. Therefore, the caller is connected directly to the agent rather than being routed through the first call center which minimizes any latency or other audio issues and reduces bandwidth utilization between the two centers.
IntelePeer recently announced the launch of Cloud Transfer, a new feature which empowers call centers to use SIP Refer as a means to provide callers a better experience through network-based transfers. With an elegant billing model that does away with the nickel-and-diming of comparable features from other carriers and a SIP-centric, cloud-based model, we think you'll like it. Granted, in a perfect world Steve would be able to handle all customer issues. Still, if and when he can't, it's good to know Cloud Transfer is the next-best alternative.

The "New" California Clasico: Earthquakes and Galaxy work to rekindle their rivalry
By Robert Jonas Jun 24, 2011, 3:38pm PDT
Share All sharing options for: The "New" California Clasico: Earthquakes and Galaxy work to rekindle their rivalry
Quakes and Galaxy go together like oil and water...
In the new world order of Major League Soccer, the key to the growth of the sport has been tapping into the young adult market that enjoys the sense of connection and community that comes from group gatherings and activities. In many MLS cities, these fans proselytize to their friends at school, at work, and especially through social media about the virtues and excitement that come with supporting their local team. Taking that tribalism a step further, these groups take to the internet to defend their side while attacking their rivals across the league via blogs and article comments wherever the game is discussed.
Unfortunately for most fans, that is where rivalries in MLS end, as traveling to away matches to support their team and vocally compete with the resident supporters groups is a fiscal and time consuming hardship that most of these young adults cannot bear. When competing teams are in relative close proximity, these barriers to away support are somewhat diminished — see the Pacific Northwest Cascadia rivalries and the Eastern seaboard I-95 corridor teams. In Los Angeles, two MLS teams share the same stadium, and a fan rivalry has grown quickly into one of the strongest in the entire league.
Then there are the MLS cities that are remotely located throughout the U.S., where rivalries based on geographical closeness often feel contrived rather than organic in their development. Real Salt Lake and the Colorado Rapids (537 miles apart) seems to fall into that category, as does Sporting Kansas City and the Chicago Fire (515 miles apart). Traveling supporters make those arduous treks to watch their teams play, but the distance involved is longer than any side would need to go, for example, in the English Premier League — just 283 miles between Newcastle upon Tyne and Fulham, London.
Now the distance between teams should in no way diminish the rivalries between supporters, but it does present a hurdle that can expose whether a rivalry truly exists or is just manufactured by the teams themselves. In the case of the San Jose Earthquakes, a bitter rivalry with their closest neighbor, the Los Angeles Galaxy, developed from the inception of MLS in 1996. Located in the two big population centers of the state of California, the Quakes and the Galaxy ("just" 355 miles apart) joined a litany of Northern and Southern California rivalries that covered virtually every professional sport. Over the first 10 years of the league, supporters of both teams traveled to away games to join local transplants in representing their sides. The players and coaches themselves embraced the rivalry over that time, and the term "California Clasico" — which borrowed its name heavily from the La Liga rivalries in Spain — was born.
That all changed in 2005, when Chivas USA entered the league and the Earthquakes completed a lame-duck season in San Jose before the franchise was moved to Houston, Texas. Both on and off-field rivalries intensified between the established Galaxy and the newcomers Chivas USA, while the once strong animosity between the Galaxy and the now named Houston Dynamo quickly faded. Ten years of spirited California Clasicos soon faded into memory.
By 2008, when the Earthquakes were reintroduced to MLS as an expansion side, San Jose supporters welcomed the chance to again hate on their Southern Californian counterparts, and they snapped up tickets to the pair of home matches contested at the Oakland Coliseum between the two sides in record numbers. While the organizations and the players had changed in the barren Nor-Cal soccer seasons on 2006 and 2007, and the teams themselves had little animosity for each other, the supporters stepped up to show MLS that one of the great rivalries in the league's history was back.
With deference to the first ten years of the competition, the current Earthquakes and Galaxy rivalry has not grown much beyond what was seen in 2008. However, the match-ups have been compelling, and supporters from both sides would be well served to return the California Clasico to the list of top rivalries in MLS. With that in mind, here's a quick look at the matches hosted by the Earthquakes against the Galaxy over the last three seasons.
Galaxy cruise to 3-0 win on June 14, 2008: In the first home match-up between the new Quakes and the Galaxy, forward Edson Buddle netted a hat-trick for Los Angeles in front of 39,872 fans at the Oakland Coliseum. The match featured the first Bay Area appearance by David Beckham, and the crowd was filled with fans wearing his replica jersey. A strong show of support from the traveling Galaxy supporters groups also lent to a raucous atmosphere at the Coliseum. The nearly 40K in attendance that evening still marks the high water mark for any Earthquakes home game since their return to MLS in 2008.
Quakes score late to edge LA 3-2 on August 3, 2008: After taking a two goal lead over the Galaxy courtesy of goals from summer arrivals Arturo Alvarez and Darren Huckerby, Los Angeles equalized on efforts from Landon Donovan and Buddle. With the afternoon crowd of 26,071 fans— more on the side of the Quakes, as the Beckham fanatics were out in far fewer numbers — sensing a draw was in the offering, the Earthquakes saved one last foray into the Galaxy area that saw a goal-mouth scramble end with defender Ryan Cochrane poking in a loss ball in the 89th minute to give the home town the win. As part of nine game unbeaten streak that summer spurred on by the summer signing of Huckerby, the Earthquakes made a late season push toward the playoffs that eventually fell short. The last-gasp victory against the Galaxy remains one of the five best moments from the 2008 season.
Galaxy equalizer earns 1-1 draw on April 18, 2009: With Beckham on loan to Italian Serie A side AC Milan to open the 2009 season, the Galaxy didn't miss the English midfielder against the Quakes that day in front of a small crowd of 15,862 at the Oakland Coliseum. Promised two home dates with the Beckham-led Galaxy in their first two seasons back in MLS, the Earthquakes would not get to capitalize on Becks' appearance in this match or the next with a big box-office gate. On the field, a 5th minute goal from Pablo Campos (who by season's end faced the Galaxy as part of Real Salt Lake in the 2009 MLS Cup final) was cancelled out by a late Bryan Jordan equalizer. The Earthquakes would follow up the disappointing draw with Los Angeles with a five match losing streak in league play.
Quakes beat Donovan and Beckham-less Galaxy 2-1 on June 20, 2009: Already rooted at the bottom of the Western Conference standings as the 2009 season neared the halfway point, the Quakes gave 17,128 ardent supporters something to cheer about when the took down their rivals at the Oakland Coliseum. With Donovan away with the U.S. National Team at the FIFA Confederations Cup and Beckham still on loan in Italy, the Earthquakes took advantage of their below strength rivals to win just their third match of the season. Campos again was the hero for the San Jose, as his goal and assist bettered a second half strike from former Quake Jovan Kirovski. Of note that day was the home debut of newly acquired forward Chris Wondolowski, who made a substitute's appearance for that season's team MVP Ryan Johnson. Perhaps a bit of foreshadowing for the torch that would be passed by that time next season?
Quakes win "Wondo-nothing" on August 21, 2010: After unceremoniously dumping the Oakland Coliseum as a home field for the 2010 season, the Quakes welcomed the Galaxy to intimate Buck Shaw Stadium for the late summer daytime contest. In front of a still-record crowd for the Buck of 10,799 fans, an early Wondolowski goal held up against an onslaught of Galaxy attacks in the 1-0 victory. Despite the absence of Beckham, this time to an Achilles injury suffered before the season began, the Galaxy looked threatening all afternoon, but would leave San Jose disappointed. Los Angeles would go on to capture the Supporters Shield for the best record in MLS in that 2010 season, the Quakes earned three valuable points on their way to qualifying for the playoffs in just their third season since returning to MLS.
