A Finite-Volume Solution with a Bidirectional Upwind Difference Scheme for the Three-Dimensional Radiative Transfer Equation
Haruma Ishida and Shoji Asano
A new calculation scheme is proposed for the explicitly discretized solution of the three-dimensional (3D) radiation transfer equation (RTE) for inhomogeneous atmospheres. To separate the independent variables involved in the 3D RTE approach, the spherical harmonic series expansion was used to discretize the terms, depending on the direction of the radiance, and the finite-volume method was applied to discretize the terms, depending on the spatial coordinates. A bidirectional upwind difference scheme, which is a specialized scheme for the discretization of the partial differential terms in the spherical harmonic-transformed RTE, was developed to make the equation determinate. The 3D RTE can be formulated as a simultaneous linear equation, which is expressed in the form of a vector–matrix equation with a sparse matrix. The successive overrelaxation method was applied to solve this equation. Radiative transfer calculations of the solar radiation in two-dimensional cloud models have shown that this method can properly simulate the radiation field in inhomogeneous clouds. A comparison of the results obtained using this method with those using the Monte Carlo method shows reasonable agreement for the upward flux, the total downward flux, and the intensities of radiance.

Estimation of Cirrus Optical Thickness from Sun Photometer Measurements
Masataka Shiobara and Shoji Asano
A method is proposed to estimate the optical thickness of cirrus clouds from ground-based sun photometry. Transfer calculations of solar radiation in ice clouds were made by the Monte Carlo method. A scattering phase function presented by Takano and Liou was employed for ice clouds. Simulations of sun photometry, which include strong forward scattering into the instrument's field of view, give a simple relationship between the true and apparent optical thicknesses. The correction method was applied to Sun photometer measurements for cirrostratus clouds observed at Tsukuba, Japan. The relationship between the visible optical thickness and the broadband solar flux transmittance obtained from observations agreed well with that theoretically expected for cloud optical thickness up to about 10.

Radiative Transfer in Water Clouds in the Infrared Region
Giichi Yamamoto, Masayuki Tanaka, and Shoji Asano
The problem of diffuse reflection, transmission and emission of infrared radiation by water clouds is investigated in the wavelength region from 5–50 μ. The drop-size distribution of clouds is assumed to be that of altostratus measured by Diem. The phase function and other optical properties of the clouds are estimated from the value of the refractive index of water proposed by Pontier and Dechambenoy. Radiative processes due to both cloud droplets and water vapor in the cloud are taken into account, and a method of averaging the solution over a spectral interval including a number of absorption lines is developed.

Estimation of Cloud Physical Parameters from Airborne Solar Spectral Reflectance Measurements for Stratocumulus Clouds
Shoji Asano, Masataka Shiobara, and Akihiro Uchiyama
A new method is proposed to retrieve various cloud physical parameters of water clouds from the solar-flux reflectances at four wavelengths measured by using the airborne Multi-channel Cloud Pyranometer (MCP) system. The MCP system was designed to measure the spectral reflectances at nine wavelengths in the visible and near-infrared region. The estimation procedure assumes a locally plane-parallel and vertically homogeneous water-cloud layer with monomodal particle size distributions of a fixed width. The cloud optical thickness τ500 and the effective particle radius re, of the water-cloud layer can be simultaneously retrieved from the MCP reflectances measured at the visible channel of λ=500 nm and at the near-infrared channel of λ=1650 nm. Under the assumption that cloud pressure height is known, the cloud liquid water content (LWC) can then be retrieved from the MCP reflectance at the oxygen absorption-band channel cantered at λ=760 nm. Finally, the in-cloud water vapor amount u H2O can be estimated from the MCP reflectance at the water vapor absorption-band channel centered at λ=938 nm. Using these directly retrieved parameters, we can estimate byproduct parameters such as integrated liquid water path, cloud particle concentration, and geometrical thickness of the homogeneous cloud layer. A reliably applicable range of the present method was estimated to be 1≤&tau500<100, 4 µm ≤re<25 µm, LWC≤1 g m−3, and u H2O≤10 g m−3.
The present retrieval method was applied to the MCP spectral reflectance data obtained through aircraft observations for wintertime stratocumulus clouds over the ocean south of Tokyo, made as part of the Western North Pacific Cloud-Radiation Experiment/Meteorological Research Institute program in Decembers of 1989 and 1990. Reasonable values of the cloud physical parameters were successfully retrieved for the stratocumulus clouds. However, a comparison with the simultaneous in situ cloud measurement showed that the estimated effective particle radii and liquid water content were lager than the in situ measured values.
Statistical microphysical features of the marine stratocumulus clouds have been investigated by taking various correlations among the contemporaneous cloud physical parameters estimated from the MCP spectral reflectances. It was found that, for thin water clouds with τ500<∼20, the effective particle radius was positively correlated with cloud optical thickness, but for thicker clouds with τ500<∼20, there was a negative correlation between them. For both cases, however, liquid water content was positively correlated with cloud optical thickness. It is suggested that, for thin clouds in the dissipating stage, evaporation might be dominant process of cloud particle formation; on the other hand, coalescence might be dominant in thick clouds in the mature stage with precipitation.

A Multichannel Cloud Pyranometer System for Airborne Measurement of Solar Spectral Reflectance by Clouds
Shoji Asano, Masataka Shiobara, Yuji Nakanishi, and Yukiharu Miyake
The design and performance of a spectral radiometer system are described for airborne measurements of solar flux reflectance by clouds. The system consists of a pair of identical multichannel pyranometers: one installed on the top and the other on the bottom of an aircraft fuselage to measure the downward and upward solar irradiances, respectively. This measurement scheme has an advantage in that reflectances derived from ratios between the upward and downward irradiances can avoid the need for absolute radiometric calibrations. The multichannel cloud pyranometer (MCP) system measures near-monochromatic solar irradiances at nine discrete wavelengths between 420 and 1650 nm by using interference filters with very narrow bandwidths. Included among these wavelengths are 760 and 938 nm in the oxygen and water vapor absorption bands, respectively. Solar radiation passing through the filters is instantly detected by a silicon photodiode for wavelength λ<1 µm and by a germanium photodiode for λ>1 µm. Good performance of the MCP system was confirmed through laboratory calibrations and airborne tests. The MCP system is suitable for remote sensing application to retrieve cloud physical parameters of water clouds from airborne spectral reflectance measurements.

Optical Depth Measurements of Aerosol Cloud, and Water Vapor Using Sun Photometers during FIRE Cirrus IFO II
Masataka Shiobara, James D. Spinhirne, Akihiro Uchiyama, and Shoji Asano
Optical depths in the visible to infrared spectral region were obtained from solar extinction measurements with two sun photometers during the First ISCCP Regional Experiment Phase II Cirrus Intensive Field Observation in Kansas.
A method is described to correct sun photometry for gaseous absorption and is extended to estimate the water vapor amount. The approach uses a prior computation of gaseous absorption for the narrowband-pass sun photometry, parameterized with the slant-path absorber amount. These produce correction coefficients for gaseous absorption, as determined by LOWTRAN 7 models. Near-infrared channels were calibrated by modified Langley plots taking account of gaseous absorption.
After the correction and calibration, the aerosol optical depths at the wavelength of 0.4–4 µm were obtained for clear sky conditions. The aerosol optical depth at the wavelength λ = 0.5 µm was 0.1–0.2 during the campaign. The cloud optical depth at λ = 0.5 µm was obtained for cirrus events on 26 November and 5 December 1991 correction of multiple scattering effects involved in sun photometry. The column amount of water vapor was estimated from the 0.94-µm-channel measurement and compared with results from radiosonde measurements. The comparison has shown a good agreement within a 10% difference during the campaign when the equivalent water vapor amount ranges from 0.3 to 1.2 g cm−2.

Solar Radiation Budget from the MRI Radiometers for Clear and Cloudy Air Columns within ARESE II
Shoji Asano, Akihiro Uchiyama, Akihiro Yamazaki, and Katsuyuki Kuchiki
As an international collaborative research activity within the Japanese Cloud-Climate Study (JACCS) program, the authors participated in the second Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) Enhanced Shortwave Experiment (ARESE II) using the Meteorological Research Institute (MRI) radiometers. This paper describes results of ARESE II, as well as specifications and calibration of the MRI radiometers. The solar radiation budget for 2 days of typical clear sky (27 February and 20 March 2000) and overcast sky (3 and 21 March 2000) has been analyzed using spatially collocated, total-band solar irradiances measured by the MRI pyranometers (Kipp & Zonen CM21). These were installed on a Twin Otter aircraft, and deployed at the ARM Southern Great Planes Central Facility site. On average, the clear-sky and overcast-sky air columns between the surface and the Twin Otter flight level of 7 km absorbed about 13% ± 2% and 20% ± 3%, respectively, of the total-band solar radiation incident on the column top. The measured solar radiation budgets agree well with those computed for models of clear and cloudy atmospheres. The present results indicate no evidence of anomalous solar absorption for either the clear- or cloudy-sky cases. It is suggested that about half of the observed absorption enhancement of 7% for the overcast-sky cases could be caused by the presence of larger water vapor, compared with the clear-sky cases, and that the other half could be caused by increased absorption within and above the rather low cloud layers.

Seasonal Variation of Aerosol Direct Radiative Forcing and Optical Properties Estimated from Ground-Based Solar Radiation Measurements
Tomoaki Nishizawa, Shoji Asano, Akihiro Uchiyama, and Akihiro Yamazaki
The surface direct radiative forcing and optical properties of aerosols have been analyzed from a ground-based solar radiation measurement, which was made under clear-sky conditions in Tsukuba, Japan, over two years from April 1997 to March 1999. The global and diffuse irradiances in the total and near-infrared (NIR) solar spectral regions were simultaneously measured by using two sets of the total-band and NIR-band pyranometers, respectively. The visible (VIS)-band irradiances were estimated by taking differences between the total-band and NIR-band irradiances. Spectral aerosol optical thicknesses (AOTs) in the air column were also measured, using a sun photometer. By combining the spectral AOTs and the surface diffuse irradiances, a retrieval algorithm for simultaneously estimating the effective aerosol size distribution and imaginary index of refraction (m i) was developed. Seasonal variations of the broadband surface radiative forcings and retrieved optical properties of the columnar aerosols have been studied. A close correlation was found among these parameters with similar features of seasonal variations. In winter the columnar aerosols exhibit the minimum surface radiative forcing and a minimum AOT, but the maximum m i value of 0.04. The opposite is true in summer, when the minimum m i value of 0.02 was estimated. The surface radiative forcing in the VIS band was estimated to be almost 4 times larger than in the NIR band. The total-band aerosol forcing efficiency is defined as the change in the surface radiative forcing in the total band due to a unit increase of AOT at 500 nm. This has its largest magnitude of −219 W m−2 in winter and its smallest magnitude of −150 W m−2 in summer. The results suggest that the correlated seasonal variations between the aerosol radiative forcing and the optical properties may result from seasonal changes in the dominant aerosol components.

With Veterans Day coming on November 11th, a newly-formed group of local volunteers is hosting a first-time event to bring together veterans suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) with members of the community who can welcome them 'back,' aiding in their healing process and showing our community's support for members of the military.
'The Welcome: A Public Listening' will take place on Saturday, November 9, 7:30pm at the Unitarian Church, 4340 W. Fort George Wright Dr. A group of 15 veterans will have spent the previous four days in an intensive retreat that focuses on using the creative arts to help veterans remember, understand and reshape their war trauma. During The Welcome event, they will share their stories in a unique performance that is open to the public. By sharing their personal stories through songs, poetry, or paintings, veterans charter a unique healing process.
Warrior Songs founder Jason Moon will emcee The Welcome and perform his music, featuring lyrics by veterans. Admission is $20 and free to veterans and their families. All of the proceeds go towards funding Healing Retreats. This event is an opportunity for community members to learn more about PTSD and to assist veterans in their recovery.
While PTSD is a nationwide epidemic, the event acknowledges those suffering on a local level. It generates a compassionate, more harmonious community between non-veterans and veterans through emotional and financial support. Because the retreats are free for veterans, funding for this organization is vital.
Individuals who would like to support the Spokane retreat can make a tax-deductible donation for Warrior Songs at warriorsongs.org/donate. More information can be found at www.WarriorSongsSpokane.org.

Faced with a similar challenge in relating to the 54 countries of Africa, the P.R.C. created the Forum on China-Africa Cooperation (FOCAC), which held its first summit in Beijing in October 2000. From the inception of FOCAC, the P.R.C. hoped to do something similar with Latin America and the Caribbean, but until recently, had been unsuccessful in doing so.
That opportunity came In January 2014 at the second annual meeting of the Community of Latin American and Caribbean States (CELAC) in Havana, Cuba, where the gathered members agreed to create a mechanism for collectively interacting with the P.R.C., with the first China-CELAC summit to be held by the end of this year.
The "China-CELAC Forum" is strategically important for the P.R.C. because it allows it to engage with the region as a whole, in a way that excludes the United States and Canada. The action highlights the boldness of Chinese President Xi Jinping and the new 5th generation of P.R.C. leadership in not refraining from an action simply because it might be seen as a threat by some parties within the United States.
Ironically, the assembled members' embrace of a relationship with the P.R.C. also circumvents the traditional argument against CELAC, that nothing important could be decided in the region without the United States.
Although the January 2014 communique establishing the forum suggests a key decision to proceed was taken in a meeting between the parties in September 2013 on the sidelines of a session of the U.N. General Assembly session in New York City, the groundwork for the new China-CELAC forum was probably laid in August 2012 when the foreign ministers of Cuba, Venezuela and Chile traveled to the P.R.C. and India in representation of CELAC.
The move is consistent with other actions by President Xi that suggest a greater willingness than his predecessor to symbolically challenge the United States in pursuit of state objectives.
While bold, the move is also consistent with other actions by President Xi that suggest a greater willingness than his predecessor to symbolically challenge the United States in pursuit of state objectives. Such actions include his unprecedented visits to Costa Rica, Trinidad and Tobago, and Mexico in June 2013 — just three months after assuming the presidency. The stops, made en route to a summit with U.S. President Barack Obama, was the first time that a Chinese leader had concentrated state visits on multiple Western Hemisphere countries all north of Panama, meeting with leaders from an unprecedented total of eleven heads of state from the region, as if to punctuate the point.
Such boldness is also consistent with President Xi's assertive behavior closer to home, including Chinese naval patrols in disputed waters in the South and East China Seas, and the P.R.C.'s November 2013 Declaration of an Air Defense Identification Zone in contested airspace.
Although the details of the new China-CELAC forum are not yet clear, it is likely that the organization will function in a manner similar to FOCAC, with a superficial focus on common political positions, but more importantly, as a vehicle for advancing Chinese business with the region through multilateral loan funds, framework agreements in areas such as finance, phytosanitary certifications, and investment projection, plus high-level political attention to (and the official blessing for) important commercial projects.
To the extent that the new forum follows in the footsteps of FOCAC and the objectives of China's own 2008 White Paper toward Latin America and the Caribbean, it is also likely expand and create a region-wide framework around educational and cultural exchanges, including Confucius Institutes and scholarships for students traveling to the P.R.C. It is similarly reasonable to expect it to work toward a regional framework to expand cooperation in science and technology, telecommunications and space, and military education and training, among other areas.
As with FOCAC in Africa, the initial summit will likely be accompanied by exuberant statements, particularly by leaders from the ALBA states, and the symbolism will likely prompt a new wave of conferences by think tanks in Washington D.C., and possibly, congressional hearings.
The new forum will likely not agree upon a meaningful program of political action.
With respect to questions in Asia, CELAC includes 11 nations which diplomatically recognize the Republic of China (ROC), including Paraguay, all of the nations of Central America except for Costa Rica, and approximately half of the Caribbean. As the China-CELAC summit approaches, the Taiwanese diplomatic machinery in the region will probably be in "overdrive" to ensure that the communique that comes out of the forum does not include support for a "One-China" policy, a euphemism for the recognition of the P.R.C. and not the R.O.C.
As an unintended byproduct, the China-CELAC forum may strengthen the hand of those in Taiwan who are dissatisfied with that nation's reapproachment with the P.R.C., as the 2016 elections approach. Despite a truce between the P.R.C. and R.O.C. since 2008 in the battle over diplomatic recognition of one versus the other, the countries in Latin America and the Caribbean that maintain relations with the R.O.C. have nonetheless significantly deepened their economic engagement with the P.R.C.
Beyond the "One China" question, it is likely that the China-CELAC forum will endorse some "principles of non-interference in the affairs of sovereign states." The P.R.C. and the nations of CELAC will find common ground in asserting (without mentioning names) that the United States should not "interfere" in the affairs of either Latin America or Asia. It is also probable, however, that both the P.R.C. and U.S. allies such as Chile and Colombia will seek to avoid antagonistic language regarding the "struggle against imperialism," although the ALBA regimes will surely attempt to include such statements.
Argentina will seek P.R.C. legitimation of its claims to the Falkland/Malvinas Islands, while the P.R.C. will likely seek support for its claims in the South and East China Seas.
While it is unlikely in general that concrete positions will emerge on matters of foreign affairs, if and how it treats territorial disputes will provide insight into its future character as an institution. Argentina will seek P.R.C. legitimation of its claims to the Falkland/Malvinas Islands, while the P.R.C. will likely seek support for its claims in the South and East China Seas. Nonetheless, the number of unresolved territorial disputes in the Americas, including those between Honduras, El Salvador and Nicaragua in the Gulf of Fonseca, between Costa Rica and Nicaragua over the San Juan River, and Colombia's resistance to recognizing a ruling by the International Court of Justice in favor of Nicaragua regarding the waters surrounding San Andres Island, will each undermine a meaningful China-CELAC position on territorial issues.
Another important question for the China-CELAC forum will be its ability to form institutions, or to integrate the P.R.C. into CELAC institutions as they are created. The plurality of political orientation and economic interests within CELAC itself has, to date, largely impeded the creation of permanent CELAC institutional structures and region-wide integration agreements.
The P.R.C. will likely offer to help fund and participate in institutions such as CELAC police and military academies, although traditional allies of the United States will probably resist actions that further draw the P.R.C. into the political, security and defense infrastructure of the region in a way that excludes the U.S. China-funded CELAC institutions for fostering education, trade and investment are likely to be more successful, even though more conservative participants will be concerned about government-to-government vehicles that help Chinese businesses expand their foothold in the region in a way that circumvents commercial competition and open bid and proposal processes.
In addition, although it will probably not impact the success of the institution, the P.R.C.'s very logic in creating the China-CELAC forum exposes the contradiction between the P.R.C. preference for dealing with "blocks" and "important powers," and the "every country is equally important" discourse that it uses in wooing small states.
On one hand, historically, China has been, and has perceived itself as the central actor in Asia, and culturally, has preferred to relate to focus its diplomacy on other "important" powers who can, in turn, ensure that the "lesser" actors within their spheres of influence act in ways beneficial to China. In the contemporary context in dealing with Latin America and the Caribbean, the P.R.C. has similarly designated "strategic partners"— Mexico, Argentina, Brazil, and later Venezuela — which were seen as more important and having influence over their neighbors.
In the end, the greatest impact of the China-CELAC summit will be to accelerate the Chinese commercial presence in the region, while further legitimizing its presence as a political actor there.
In November 2013, U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry made clear in his address to the OAS that the "Era of the Monroe Doctrine" is over. The U.S. will not try to prevent the sovereign states of Latin America and the Caribbean from developing relationships with the P.R.C., but such acquiescence makes all the more the responsibility of those states to think clearly about what kind of relationship with China is in their interest and that of the region.
The global governance system is built and shared by the world, not monopolized by a single country. China certainly has no intention to do so. China is involved in building the current international system, and has always done its part to uphold the international order and system with the U.N. as its core and the purposes and principles of the U.N. charter as its foundation.

I am not typically drawn to games about peaceful farm life, but when Slime Rancher was made free with Xbox Live Gold, I decided to give it a chance. Slime Rancher was developed by Monomi Park, and was fully released for Xbox One, Windows, Mac, and Linux in August of 2017. This humble game is surprisingly addictive, and I was only able to put it down once I had explored everything.
The story aspect of Slime Rancher is minimal, but delivers a good message. You play as a young woman named Beatrix LeBeau, who has moved from Earth to a distant planet known as "The Far Far Range." There, she pursues the profession of farming slimes, an indigenous species of gelatinous lifeform that produce byproducts with various scientific and industrial applications. The story is more in the background than the gameplay, and is told by notes left by the last rancher who lived in the area, Hobson Twillgers, and by emails received from a person named Casey back on Earth. The notes left by Hobson often contain hints about The Far Far Range, but further in the game they explore human ideas such as loneliness, love, and the concept of "when one door opens, another closes." The messages from Casey hint that Casey and Beatrix were close in some way, but quite different, as where Beatrix longed for adventure, Casey would rather stay at home in comfort. Together, these messages encourage the player to pursue their dreams and have an adventure, but to always appreciate love and the comfort of home.
The gameplay of Slime Rancher revolves around exploration, resource management, and economics. As you explore, you will encounter various kinds of slimes, which you can store by sucking them into your vacpack. On the ranch, you can build slime pens, chicken pens, crop plots, storage bins, water pools, and incinerators. When a slime eats a food, it produces an object called a "plort." The plorts of each slime have unique properties that make it valuable back on Earth. For example, the plorts of pink slimes, which eat anything edible, can be used in general manufacturing and construction, while the plorts of honey slimes are used to make extremely sweet food. You can sell the plorts you have collected on the plort market, which follows the general rules of supply and demand. If you sell a large quantity of the same kind of plort, it will lose value on the market, and if you don't sell any for a long period of time, its value will slowly increase. A risky but profitable way to maximize plort output is to create largo slimes. A largo is created when a slime eats the plort of a different kind of slime, and is twice as big as a normal slime, with the physical characteristics of both parent slimes. When a largo eats, it produces the plorts of both parent slimes, effectively doubling output. However, largos are more difficult to control due to their greater size, and if they eat the plort of a third kind of slime, they will become a dangerous slime called a Tarr. Tarrs are made of a black, oily substance, and will eat other slimes, chickens, and ranchers, and will cause crops to rot around them. When a Tarr eats, it will produce another Tarr, which can easily lead to a chain reaction if the player doesn't intervene. A Tarr is destroyed if doused with water or thrown into the ocean. Another special kind of slime are gordo slimes, which are so massive they have become immobile. However, they often hide a treasure, so the player must feed it a huge quantity of food so it pops, revealing its treasure and scattering normal versions of the slimes it consists of everywhere.
I must say, it is easy to become a victim of your own success in Slime Rancher. Once you begin to farm many different kinds of slimes and begin growing large quantities of the food to feed them, it becomes difficult to stop tending them and go back to adventuring. When last I played, by the time I had finished harvesting and feeding slimes on one end of the ranch, the other end was ready to be harvested again. The issue isn't that your farm can become extremely efficient, it's the fact there is very little the player can do to automate the process. Crops must always be harvested by hand and placed in the slime pens, and plorts must always be removed from the storage of the pen by hand. The whole system is very manual and hands-on, which gets very tedious at times. Another issue I have with Slime Rancher is its complete lack of multiplayer. This is more or less a sandbox game, and it would be quite interesting to play with a friend in the world of jiggly livestock.
The graphics of Slime Rancher hold an enormous amount of charm. They are cartoon-like, and filled with bright, eye-catching colors. Each environment is beautiful in its own way, be it a jungle or a desert. The smiling faces of the slimes will make a player say, "Awww," on several occasions. The music is extremely relaxing, except for when a Tarr is nearby, at which point it becomes menacing to alert the player of danger.
With these elements in mind, I give Slime Rancher a seven out of ten. The graphics are charming, and the game carries a good message. It's addictive and difficult to become bored with, and fairly straightforward to play. I expected it to be childish or boring, but Slime Rancher is filled with adventure and provides an important theme that you should follow your dreams, but always make room for happiness in life.

Natalia Deshyanov
Earth (North Asia sector)
Concordance Extraction Corporation
Natalia Raisa Deshyanov was part of the Colony Maintenance on Aegis VII.
Early life[]
Natalia Deshyanov was born in Earth's North Asia sector (Most likely in Russia) to a large extended family of engineers and laborers going back to generations. She spent her childhood stargazing and would often act out fantasies of living on Mars with her cousins.
Unlike most children, Natalia's fascination with the stars never faded and while serving out her apprenticeship as an engineer, she continually applied for spacebound jobs. It was the Mars Capita riots that would eventually grant her wish as the fledgling city-state desperately needed good engineers to repair and rebuild it's infrastructure. Natalia successfully applied and was taken on by a general engineering contractor. Forty-eight relatives turned out to bid her goodbye as she boarded the shuttle at Baikonur and Natalia never looked back.
Later, seeing that the Mars rebuilding was nearing completion and her job would soon be redundant, Natalia jumped before she was pushed. She found a new line of work in Mars' orbiting shipyards, working off a CEC subsidiary. She soon garnered a position within the CEC itself as a supervisor.
Natalia lived and worked her whole life around engineers and laborers and was completely comfortable working in a predominantly male environment. She gave as well as she got and could drink half of her own team under the table.
The Second Aegis 7 Incident[]
Natalia was part of a small security team sent to protect the Marker upon its discovery. Her assignment to protect the Marker was the result of the clumsiness of one of her co-workers who accidentally ripped a door open in Shuttle Bay 5 in the colony. She at first was skeptical of the Marker, only appreciating the view that it provided. However, upon the discovery of a recorded video of the Marker, possibly by Natalia, she and her team are reassigned and arrested. Obsessed with protecting the Marker, Natalia attacked and killed one of the security personnel sent to arrest her before being subdued. She was put under observatory confinement under the watch of Dr. Sciarello. While under confinement, Natalia developed a habit of compulsive scrawling while suffering from severe mood swings. These mood swings are made evident by Abraham Neumann's first visit to Natalia and noted that she had a cheery mood. However, upon Neumann's second visit, her mood was more distressed and fearful with little memory of Neumann's past visit. Her mood swings took a violent turn when she attacked Dr. Sciarello upon one of his visits. Upon being beaten down by a security officer, Natalia pleaded with the officer to end her life.
Upon the blackout of the entire colony and the sudden attack of the Necromorphs, Natalia was able to escape from her cell and make it to the rover bay. Taking a rover to the dig site, Natalia looked up at the sky and witnessed a sight (never shown, but possibly the crater left after the Planet Crack thought to be the Hive Mind's nest) that caused her to become so alarmed that she uttered "Oh my God." Upon witnessing the site, she spoke "I am ready. Make me whole" right before she leaped into the pit and to her death.

Q: Calculation of the diffusion/activation energy I am currently attempting to do a KMC simulation to calculate the diffusion coefficient of an Inconel-Ni alloy using LAMMPS. As a part of that, I would like to know how to calculate, in LAMMPS preferably (or in any other way), the diffusion/activation energy that is taken or expended by all the atoms at any given timestep in the model when they diffuse from their current atomic site to a new atomic site. I cannot use the Arrhenius equation since my objective is to calculate the diffusion coefficient 'D' and both D and activation energy 'E_a' are unknown. Could anyone provide any insight into this? Thank you.

Rajesh

Ioan Ivanovici, cunoscut și ca Ion sau Iosif () a fost un clarinetist, dirijor și compozitor român de muzici militare și muzică ușoară. Creația lui cuprinde în majoritate dansuri (vals, cadril, polcă) și marșuri. Cea mai cunoscută compoziție a sa este valsul "Valurile Dunării".

Activitate
Fiu al lui Axinte și Persida Ivanovici, a fost botezat la vechea biserică greco-ortodoxă Sfântul Ilie din cartierul Fabric. În copilărie, a primit în dar un flaut pe care a învățat să îl mânuiască de unul singur. În 1859 a intrat copil de trupă în fanfara Regimentului 6 Infanterie din Galați. Aici a luat lecții de clarinet sub îndrumarea lui Alois Red. S-a dovedit a fi unul dintre cei mai talentați interpreți din regimentul său și a fost încurajat să studieze muzica la Iași, unde s-a aflat sub îndrumarea pedagogului Emil Lehr. Ulterior, a fost numit dirijor al mai multor formații de muzică militară.

Ivanovici a rămas aproape întreaga viață la Galați, avansând ca ofițer. Interesul pe care îl manifesta pentru muzicile militare a culminat cu numirea lui în 1900 în funcția de inspector general al muzicii militare din România.

Cariera desfășurată de timpuriu în jurul ansamblurilor militare i-a sădit interesul pentru compoziție, genul abordat pendulând între muzica ușoară (dansurile) și scriitura în caracter marțial (piese pentru fanfară, marșuri). Este integrat generației de compozitori de vals vienez, al cărei exponent de prim rang este Johann Strauss-fiul; de altfel, discografia sa îl surprinde în această ipostază cel mai adesea, numele său fiind regăsit pe compilații de gen mai curând decât pe discuri proprii (una dintre puținele astfel de apariții a fost realizată de către Orchestra Filarmonică "Banatul" sub conducerea lui Ion Iancu, editată de către Electrecord și Discovery Records.

Ivanovici s-a stabilit în 1901 la București și a murit aici un an mai târziu.

Înregistrarea nașterii
La inițiativa Asociației "Salvați Patrimoniul Timișoarei" și cu susținerea Asociației Timișoara 2021 — Capitală Europeană a Culturii (ATCEC 2021), un studiu al registrelor bisericii greco-ortodoxe Sfântul Ilie din cartierul Fabric aflate în Arhivele Naționale Timiș a găsit înregistrarea privind nașterea, respectiv data, prenumele de botez, numele de familie și prenumele părinților. Acest fapt certifică cu exactitate aceste date și stabilește că deși numele are rezonanțe sârbești, el nu a fost botezat la o biserică ortodoxă sârbă, ci la una ortodoxă română. În înregistrarea nașterii nu apare prenumele Iosif, sub care Ivanovici este foarte cunoscut. În acest context, prenumele Iosif trebuie considerat un nume de scenă.

Cetățean de onoare al Timișoarei
Ioan Ivanovici a fost numit post-mortem Cetățean de Onoare al Timișoarei, iar acest titlu a fost preluat la 27 noiembrie 2019 de strănepotul său, pianistul Andrei Ivanovici.

Lucrări

A compus peste 350 de piese. Este însă cunoscut pe plan mondial prin valsul "Valurile Dunării", piesă care s-a bucurat de un succes atât de mare, încât a fost uneori atribuită altor compozitori, între care și Johann Strauss-fiul. A fost interpretată prima dată la Expoziția Universală de la Paris din 1889, în aranjamentul semnat de Emile Waldteufel, unde a câștigat premiul pentru compoziție și a devenit imnul expoziției.

Între compozițiile lui Ivanovici se înscriu nenumărate mazurci, polci, cadriluri, serenade, romanțe, piese în stil popular (de pildă, "Sârba moților", care a fost creată pentru a pune în lumină originea ardelenească a compozitorului). Piese de Ivanovici precum "Porumbeii albi" sau "Hora micilor dorobanți" fac parte din repertoriul fanfarelor militare și astăzi.

Carbon Disulfide Market Is Driven By Increase In Demand For Rayon And Other Fibers From The Fabric And Textile Industry Till 2022 | Million Insights
Million Insights – World's Fastest Growing Market Research Database
According to new report available with Million Insights, growing demand for cellulosic fibers and cellulose from several industries are the major driving factors of carbon disulfide market. The rise in application of chemical in agriculture end use industry is estimated to drive demand for fumigant and insecticide, which again boosts carbon disulfide market.
Global Carbon Disulfide Market is expected to grow at a significant CAGR in the forecast period owing to the increase in demand for cellophane from packaging segment. Also known as, carbon bisulfide, carbon disulfide is a transparent, flammable, volatile and toxic liquid chemical. The chemical has wide industrial applications in manufacture, rubber rayon, cellophane, electroplating, metal rust removal, and plywood. It is also used in agriculture as a fumigant and pesticide. A significant percent of carbon disulfide occurs naturally in marshes, oceans, volcanoes, wet lands even though it is found at low concentrations as compared to industrial chemical release. Natural carbon disulfide is produced by microbes, which are adapted to low oxygen settings.
Carbon disulfide is extensively used as an accelerator in rubber vulcanization process, in manufacturing of cellophane film and viscose rayon. The chemical is a valued intermediate in chemical synthesis of carbon tetra-chloride, organosulfur compounds like xanthates, metam sodium, dithiocarbamates, which are widely used in extractive rubber and metallurgy chemistry. Carbon disulfide is also used in fumigation of airtight storage containers. The chemical has also found applications as an insecticide for the fumigation of nursery stock, grains, preserving fresh fruits and as a soil disinfectant.
Growing demand for cellulosic fibers and cellulose from several industries are the major driving factors of carbon disulfide market. The rising cost of raw materials and the application of chemicals in the production of mining chemicals is gaining popularity and is expected to grow significantly in future. The increase in demand for rayon and other fibers from the fabric and textile industry is predicted to drive the market.

Carbon disulfide is used as solvent for sulfur, bromine, selenium, iodine, phosphorus, asphalt, resin, fats, and rubber for the cleaning of carbon nanotubes. Hence, increase in the demand for nanotubes is expected to propel demand for carbon disulfide. The rise in application of chemical in agriculture end use industry is estimated to drive demand for fumigant and insecticide, which again boosts carbon disulfide market. However, carbon disulfide is hazardous to human health, which hinders the growth of market. The chemical is claimed to have neurophysiologic changes along with behavioral changes when exposed for longer period. Environmental organizations like AIHA ERPG, EPS, NIOSH, and OSHA have imposed strict laws for exposure and utility limits of carbon disulfide in several industrial products. Moreover, the substitution of rayon with lyocell that avoids using carbon disulfide in synthesis process is predicted to obstruct the growth of carbon disulfide market.
The market is categorized on the basis of applications, and geography. On the basis of application, market is divided into rubber, fiber, rayon, agriculture, packaging, pharmaceutical, food, and others. Agriculture segment registered maximum growth in the previous years, owing to extensive adoption of the compound in pesticides and fertilizers. At present, packaging industry is predicted to lead carbon disulfide market due to the rise in demand for packaging material.
Geographically, market is segmented as North America, Latin America, Europe, Asia Pacific, and Middle East & Africa. Asia Pacific followed by Europe are expected to dominate carbon disulfide market in the coming years owing to increase in demand from packaging industry.
The key players in carbon disulfide market include Akzo Nobel N.V., Avantor Materials, Arkema Group, Jiangsu Jinshan Chemical Co. Ltd., Shanghai Baijin Chemical Group Co., Ltd., Manass Jinyunli Chemical Co. Ltd., PPG Industries, Inc., Univar Inc., and Alfa Aesar among others.

The 2015 Corvette Z06 has already made a run through the buff books, storming the 0-60 sprint in 2.9 seconds flat. So what is it like to drive it? Super Chevy editor Jim Campisano went to Road Atlanta to flog the 650-horsepower, LT4-powered C7. And why did Chevrolet engineers go the blown route? Corvette Chief Engineer Tadge Juchter gives us a hint.
In the below video, Juchter explains the finer points of the most powerful production Vette ever, then goes into the raison d'etre about why the C7 Z06 is what it is compared to the LS7 in the previous C6 Z06. To wit, the Z06 team had originally planned to produce a normally aspirated, high-displacement high-revving engine, but emissions regulations have been pushing manufacturers to forced induction and smaller-displacement engines.
Or, to get it from Tadge himself: "for the size of the package, for the cost-effectiveness, for the durability engine and for emissions requirements, a 'charged solution was better," so engineers worked at making the most compact, lightest-weight package they could and used the available technologies and techniques to increase specific output versus the outgoing LS9 of the C6 Corvette ZR1. The result? Arguably a better car all-around. Even if the LT4 engine is more susceptible to heat soak than the LS7.
Get both the commentaries and the track thrashing below.
Video won't download. It's listed as "This video is private"???!!!
Why is this video "private"? Cannot view….
We're not sure what happened to the video, folks. It was public at the time of this writing. Unfortunately there's not much we can do. At any rate, Tadge's words are still highlighted in the text.

A single amino acid change in the Marburg virus glycoprotein arises during serial cell culture passages and attenuates the virus in a macaque model of disease
Kendra J. Alfson, Laura E. Avena, Jenny Delgado, Michael W. Beadles, Jean L. Patterson, Ricardo Carrion, Anthony Griffiths
Marburg virus (MARV) causes disease with high case fatality rates, and there are no approved vaccines or therapies. Licensing of MARV countermeasures will likely require approval via the FDA's Animal Efficacy Rule, which requires wellcharacterized animal models that recapitulate human disease. This includes selection of the virus used for exposure and ensuring that it retains the properties of the original isolate. The consequences of amplification of MARV for challenge studies are unknown. Here, we serially passaged and characterized MARV through 13 passes from the original isolate. Surprisingly, the viral genome was very stable, except for a single nucleotide change that resulted in an amino acid substitution in the hydrophobic region of the signal peptide of the glycoprotein (GP). The particle/PFU ratio also decreased following passages, suggesting a role for the amino acid in viral infectivity. To determine if amplification introduces a phenotype in an animal model, cynomolgus macaques were exposed to either 100 or 0.01 PFU of low- and highpassage- number MARV. All animals succumbed when exposed to 100 PFU of either passage 3 or 13 viruses, although animals exposed to the high-passage-number virus survived longer. However, none of the passage 13 MARV-exposed animals succumbed to 0.01-PFU exposure compared to 75% of passage 3-exposed animals. This is consistent with other filovirus studies that show some particles that are unable to yield a plaque in cell culture can cause lethal disease in vivo. These results have important consequences for the design of experiments that investigate MARV pathogenesis and that test the efficacy of MARV countermeasures.

QGDnD: Episode 3: Bad at Making Plans, Good at Eliminating Witnesses | Elder Scrolls Online Podcasts & More!
So I just have to ask because it's driving me nuts; why does Koth roll 2 D20 every time?
Is this some feat or ability he has?
5e Dungeons and Dragons has a mechanic called Advantage and Disadvantage. You roll two dice and keep the highest if you have advantage and roll two and keep the lowest if you have disadvantage. When you have advantage or disadvantage is situational, decided on by the DM or other abilities.
Now, that out of the way, we do this game online over the Roll20 website, which shows all the rolls we make. To save time, the sheet we use automatically rolls two dice for every roll in case the GM has said that there is advantage or disadvantage. We use the number that appears on the left for us if there isn't.
We try to read the results of rolls out for the listener and Tim has a habit of reading out both numbers, just in case.
Koth also fights with two raptor claw "punch" daggers, one in each hand , so he gets two attacks per round.


In Colombia, during the past few weeks, the number of social leaders who have been victims of different paramilitary structures that seek to silence and dismantle social processes in different regions of the country has increased. With the systematic assassination of women and men fundamental to the political and territorial demands of their respective communities, the paramilitary power seeks to consolidate its territorial control and criminalize any attempt by the social and political organizations in different regions of the country.
From the Continental Platform of ALBA Movements, we denounce and view with concern the social and political situation of the Colombian social movement as a whole. More than 100 social leaders were assassinated between January and July 2018, with an exponential increase in the number last month, when more than 16 social activists were assassinated throughout the national territory. These include those who had worked as human rights activists, were part of the claims for land restitution, or had been part of the presidential campaign of Colombia Humana in their respective regions. More than 300 leaders have been assassinated since the signing of the peace agreement.
We demand from the Colombian State the cessation of these disturbing events. For all the organizations of Latin America and the Caribbean that form the ALBA Movements, the fundamental guarantee of protection of the lives of our social leaders in Colombia is the real and major combat of paramilitarism that remains in force in the territories and threatens the consolidation of the much desired peace for the Colombian people.
The peace agreement signed in 2006 by the Colombian government is the fundamental tool to protect the social struggle in the country. In this agreement, there are suitable mechanisms – which were discussed at the negotiation table in Havana, Cuba – to guarantee the lives of all those who decide to build peace in their territories. That is why it is essential that the Colombian State commits to implement fully the peace agreement as it was signed, and stops the persecution of social movements and the imprisonment of social leaders.
Being a social leader is not a crime.
The peace of Colombia is the peace of Our America.
Latin America is a territory of peace.

Our last day in London found us re-visiting the V&A and investigating the 4th floor where it is simply described as Britain 1760-1900. In these galleries you will find an exhibit that features objects and drawings illustrating aspects of early British design education.
Many students of Art and design do not realise that the process they partake in during the course of their degree stems from ideas about art education developed in the 19th century. One of those precedents is the South Kensington System which was a state run syllabus that was delivered in institutions across the UK. From the 1880s the syllabus was administered and examined by the South Kensington School, what is now the V&A.
How did the South Kensington System come about?
Well … it has more to do with manufacturing and industry than people realise. Problems Started to be raised as early as early as 1820 with imported goods gaining more of the market becasue they were better designed than the British counterparts. To counter this manufacturers started to employ foreign designers but this was not a long term solution as a better arts and design education system was needed. At the time the Royal Academy of Arts was the main institution for arts education but it had become a tight knit, unchanging, inflexible, elite group of men who controlled the gates of the profession vigorously. Following the Great Exhibition of 1851 where British design was percieved to be inadequate and following a Parliamentary inquiry into the state of Art Education the South Kensington System was established.
This design for a ceramic tile won a scholarship prize for Kate Greenaway who became famous for her illustrations for children's books. The National Competition provided funds for 15 students to study at the National Art Training School at South Kensington.
Twenty one year old Albert Edward Hayes submitted this pen, ink and watercolour piece for examination in the South Kensington School of Design. The sheet stamped with the letters 'ESK', which stand for 'Examined South Kensington'. Albert Edward Hayes went on to design wallpapers and textiles.
This student sketchbook of W.S. Singer would be called a studio or visual journal today. It Shows tracings of drawings made in the museum. Singer went on to become a designer of church furnishings.
Another section of the museum which directly relates to learning to draw is the cast galleries. At the moment only one is open as they renovate the other. The Cast collection opened in 1873. The aim of the collection was educational as the idea was that art students would learn to draw by studying the copies of significant art works that were cast. The cast galleries reproductions of Michelangelo's David, Trajan's Column, and Ghiberti's Gates of Paradise, amongst many others.
The South Kensington School in London, became the Royal College of Art (RCA) in 1896. At the time it shared space with the South Kensington Museum that became the Victoria and Albert Museum in 1899.
So interesting…..there is just so much out there for us to still see and learn about. Hope you have enjoyed your travels.
Hello Sharon, Hope that you have enjoyed your travels.
This is a very interesting article. I had no idea about any of this. We were sent to draw and copy at the V and A. but I had no idea what to study, draw or what the purpose of it was. I realize now, of course, what an amazing opportunity this was but I was too young and naive at the time to know this and participate.


Today Asus has officially confirmed that the upcoming ZenFone 6 series will make its debut on May 16th at a standalone event held in Valencia, Spain.
The date, which was previously rumored to be May 14th, was announced in a special video posted to the brand's social media channels. In it, Asus recaps the previous five generations of its ZenFone lineup before teasing the ZenFone 6.
The company didn't reveal any kind of features or specifications but it did claim a "revolution is coming," which would suggest some rather drastic changes are on the cards. If a range of previously-leaked prototypes is anything to go by, these could include everything from punch-hole cutouts to off-center notches. Triple-camera setups are a likely addition to the smartphones too.
As to what can be expected internally from the smartphones, Asus usually releases a flagship along with a mid-range offering and a budget device. As a result, processors such as the Snapdragon 855, Snapdragon 670, and Snapdragon 632 can be expected.
Each device should also be priced quite aggressively. In fact, the flagship ZenFone 6 model will likely be priced in the region of the OnePlus 6T. The other models, on the other hand, should compete with comparable smartphones offered by the likes of Xiaomi.


Getting ready for a job interview? It's important to research typical interview questions and practice your original answers well before the interview. The interviewing process is, of course, also an examination of the employer: be sure to get your questions answered and ensure that you feel comfortable with the job function and workplace culture.
Employers will find that the right interview questions can make all the difference in the assessment of employees. Rather than use stock questions, make sure to try out different interview techniques and see what works best for your individual company culture and skill requirements. A properly done interview will give both parties a good idea of both the quantitative and qualitative aspects of the potential match. The major types of interviewing include behavioral, stress, testing, committee and screening, with each having its own sets of appropriate question formats.
Some of the most common questions asked in job interviews are those regarding motivation for applying for the job and how the candidate plans to best benefit the company. Usually, an interviewer will want what amounts to a self-portrait. The answers should consist of a concise description of education, relevant achievements, goals, and qualifications. If you are being interviewed, approach this question by summarizing your resume and key highlights, focusing on how you can add value to the company.
If you are interviewing, consider using a "top-down" pattern of questioning-asking a general question first, followed by questions about specifics, e.g., "Have you had to cope with almost impossible deadlines?", "How did you deal with the most challenging one?"
Other common questions are aimed at determining how well an applicant's plans and interests coincide with those of the company. The questions are also aimed at weeding out those applicants who lack sincere interest in the job. Acing an interview is a matter of conveying an air of confidence and enthusiasm for the job along with quick and sure answers to whatever questions may be asked.
A vital question that must be answered with enthusiasm is "Why do you want to work here?" To answer this question sufficiently it is important to address one's interest in the company and in the industry. Expressing an understanding of the job requirements and explaining how one's personal qualifications will benefit the company are important elements of a well-executed interview.
The interviewer will typically want to know how a candidate perceives his or her own abilities. In order to do this, the candidate may be asked to describe personal strengths, skills and biggest weaknesses. The replies should focus on those skills that are most suitable for and highly valued by the company. It is effective to share experiences involving skills have been successfully tested. Likewise, consideration should be given to portraying weaknesses in a positive light and indicating that awareness of any weakness motivates working harder to overcome them.
The world's top employers employ advanced interviewing techniques. Google is one company famous for its interview questions. Find out about their hiring process.
Behavioral interview questions, when utilized properly, are questions that focus on past job performance-related issues, such as how a project was approached and carried out, in order to extrapolate to future performance.
