Beamish and Crawford ist eine irische Brauerei.

Sie wurde 1792 in Cork von William Beamish and William Crawford gegründet. Seit 2008 befindet sie sich im Besitz der Heineken-Gruppe.

Geschichte

Die beiden Gründer Beamish und Crawford kauften 1792 eine bereits bestehende Brauerei auf, die im Laufe der folgenden Jahre erheblich erweitert wurde. Der Standort in der Corker South Main Street beheimatete bereits seit mindestens 1650 (einigen Quellen zufolge möglicherweise bereits seit etwa 1500) eine Brauerei. Damit war der Beamish & Crawford-Stammsitz zum Zeitpunkt der Schließung im März 2009 der älteste Brauereistandort Irlands an dem noch produziert wurde.

Beamish & Crawford wechselte im Laufe der Jahre mehrfach den Besitzer – 1962 wurde die Brauerei von dem kanadischen Unternehmen Carling-O'Keefe Ltd übernommen und 1995 an Scottish and Newcastle verkauft. 2008 wurde Scottish and Newcastle seinerseits durch die niederländische Heineken-Gruppe und die dänische Carlsberg-Brauerei übernommen. Das britische und irische Geschäft von Scottish and Newcastle wird nach der Übernahme durch Heineken betrieben. Die irische Wettbewerbsbehörde gab im Oktober 2008 grünes Licht für die Eingliederung von Beamish & Crawford in die Heineken-Gruppe. Im Dezember desselben Jahres gab Heineken bekannt, dass man den Stammsitz der Beamish and Crawford-Brauerei im März 2009 schließen und die Produktion der dort produzierten Biere stattdessen in der Corker Lady's Well Brauerei, in der bereits unter anderem Murphy's und Heineken hergestellt werden, fortsetzen werde.
Die Schließung bedeutete das Ende für den ältesten noch aktiven Brauereistandort Irlands und führte zum Verlust von 120 Arbeitsplätzen. Nach Heineken-Angaben wurden etwa 40 ehemalige Beamish & Crawford-Mitarbeiter übernommen.

Auch nach der Übernahme durch Heineken ist Beamish & Crawford die einzige Brauerei, die im irischen Markt offensiv mit niedrigeren Preisen als die Konkurrenz wirbt. Der Preis pro gezapftem Pint Beamish Stout oder Foster's Lager lag im April 2009 zum Teil um mehr als einen Euro unter den Preisen für andere Bier- und Stoutsorten.

Produkte

Das Hauptprodukt von Beamish & Crawford-Produkt ist das Beamish Stout. Es schmeckt etwas stärker als die beiden anderen bekannten irischen Stouts Guinness und Murphy's. Letzteres stammt ebenfalls aus Cork. Es gibt auch die weniger weit verbreitete Variante Beamish Red – ein süßliches Ale, das den Marken Murphy's Irish Red und Kilkenny nachempfunden ist.

Zusätzlich zu den eigenen Produkten werden etliche internationale Biermarken gebraut und vertrieben. Hierzu gehören unter anderem Foster's, Miller und Kronenbourg 1664.

ISC LLC owner Richard Chiu understands that businesses must evolve over time in order to stay competitive. His goal at ISC is to understand the unique needs of a business and provide solutions that evolve their technology to the next level. These solutions include Advanced Voice and Mobility Solutions, Fleet and Telematics, and Audio and Web Conferencing Solutions.
Prior to setting up ISC, Richard worked in the wireless industry for over ten years where he serviced consumers before transitioning to B2B solutions. There he saw a common trend among small and medium-sized businesses that were looking to advance and innovate. "I took my skills and knowledge to further my career by creating the opportunity to do what I love, which is to help support the local businesses in the area," he shares.


I was one of the highly skeptical ones, wondering about noise, ASA, and all that good stuff.
I never doubted the Dragon color rendition and overall image quality, but I was worried about excessive noise in the picture, as I really like shooting dark, high contrast frames, obviously when the story calls for it.
When the opportunity came up for the battle tested Dragons, I jumped on the Scarlet Dragon. I knew that eventually the market will demand Dragons, so even skeptical, I went ahead with the purchase.
I shot it at 500 ASA and processed the same. The only thing I did in RCX was cool down the color temp. and turn down the chrome a bit. On purpose I didn't use DEB.
As you can see, there's highlights and dark spots. Is there noise? Yes, but the amount is (given the complaints) surprisingly small and dare I say way less than 5219 would show grainwise at these light levels.
And the skin tone is just so great, somehow it feels "shinier", even there's no way that's possible.
This was shot with the V2 OLPF, so I can only imagine that V1 could make this even better, although I do not want to lose the skintone thats just really spot on.
Well, I'm sold. Good job RED.
Awesome. Thanks for sharing, Daniel!
Cool, can't wait to have both!
Does the G L / Sigma 18-35 cover 6k on the Epic Dragon does anyone know?
Great post! Generally, that's all it takes.
Here's a Dragon shot with the same 18-35 lens.
So Dragon has a better time with Tungsten sources than MX did? I think I remember reading the sensor's native kelvin has been lowered from 5000? So no more need for a CTB filters?
its not lower than 5000 but it might seem a smidge lower like 4600k.
Phil and I have both reported not really needing to add the 1/8 blue in tungsten.
Basically, the blue channel on dragoncolor does not have to be reigned in as much as it was on MX.
tungsten renders in a true way as you can see in the samples posted in this thread.
You should be good to go at 18mm as 6K WS is pretty narrow. If any is present, it should be fairly faint.
I thought V1 OLPF did a pretty dang good job, but V2 is as good, if not better than the Alexa in highlights. Let's put it this way, I don't mind blowing the top end any more because it's not ugly. Tungsten is beautiful-even if you are pushing light the noise structure is much nicer and smaller than the MX. But what I've been excited about is that mixed light and ugly light (such as sources with a green spike) is much closer to how my eye sees it.
Perhaps it was just fate, but several of the things I shot with OLPF V1 were compromised enough by the red orb issue that it skewed the color rendition across the image. YMMV.
Totally agree that OLPF V2 ST-H handles mixed sources quite well - try getting good color from a BMPC without proper lighting and tell me how that goes for you. Moreover, when I shot 3 subjects with differing natural skin tones and did some global grading on the R3Ds I was able to easily render those disparate skin tones with great accuracy. I think that is an indicator of a sensor/color matrix combo that is far more linear than anything I've seen from MX.
Processed with DEB and ADD.
In all these examples the darks are crushed all the way to pure black, with virtually no details in the shadows. Sometimes what you want, but not always, and certainly a way to hide noise and/or a lack of information the darks.
That's great Daniel. How would you compare 5K on red epic and scarlet dragon? In term of resolution, compression, etc.
I'd also like to hear the comparison.
Would you be willing to share some blow-ups of ungraded footage or provide a frame for download?
Music video I just shot in Nashville.
Glad to see you so convinced.
I can literally "see" why you are saying that.
stuff is just so "true" but hyper real at the same time.

Q: Allocating a Spritefont into an Class I'm trying to make an allocation of a Spritefont to an Spritefont in a class like showing above so that I don't have to pass SpriteFonts and Stuff every single time,  but everytime I try to Render with the Test_Font there is an null-exeption that the Engine.Test_Font is empty. I know that SpriteFont is an Sealed class but when I try to alloc Spritefonts in the mainprogramm it works?!
Thanks a lot!
P.S: Sorry for my English :)
class Engine
SpriteFont Test_Font;
public void Set_Engine(SpriteFont sf)
{
Test_Font = sf;
}
public void Render(SpriteBatch sb)
{
sb.DrawString(Test_Font, "Test", new Vector2(100, 100), Color.Red);
}

A: Ok, i figured it out, you can´t pass things which aren´t loaded yet. facepalm
Just moving the allocation BEHIND the Loading-Sequence and it works. Sometimes i feel Stupid.
Have a nice Day.

Well, we've got to be fair: it's good to have an 'uncle' boyfriend, but it's also good to have an 'auntie' girlfriend. This type of girlfriend would only show her true colour after a few years of relationship, but once she has 'upgraded' to that status, you can bet that she'll be the one to marry.
Why so? Here are ten reasons for you to agree. Or disagree.
She is always prepared for a rainy day.
In both the literal and metaphorical sense. She always has an umbrella in her bag to shelter herself from the sun and rain. Also, you can save money for a rainy day next time.
She is just as kiasu as you.
When you go to USS for a date, you will probably complete 3 rounds of all the rides, because she will make sure that both of you hurry to the next ride immediately to save queuing time. Super worth your ticket price right?
You save money when you are with her.
Not in a cheapo way lah, but we mean that she will always consider the best deals. You never have to worry about missing a good deal when you are eating with her, because she confirm plus chop will always order the set meal that saves like 50% off the usual price.
She nags for your own good.
She will always give the best advice, whether you ask for it or not. She takes care of you when you are sick and makes sure that you don't do it again, by giving you all sorts of health advice.
She willingly queues up with you.
If you are craving for some famous satay but the queue is horribly long, you can be sure that she is totally up for it. You don't need to worry about her complaints that it is taking too long and she'd rather be somewhere posher.
She doesn't need you to buy her luxury gifts or take her out on classy dates. Save the money for BTO lah.
Going to a coffeeshop for lunch? You can be sure that she has a packet of tissue ready to chope a place for you.
She doesn't take ages to dress up for dates.
You can be sure that she will always be punctual. She doesn't need to put on makeup to look perfect and only needs ten minutes to get ready to go out.
You can maintain a certain level of hygiene wherever you go.
Even if you visit some rundown coffee shop in JB, you can be sure that she will always have wet tissue paper to wipe your hands and the utensils. Also, hand sanitiser is indispensable.
You will always get fresh groceries.
When buying stuff from NTUC, she will grab the ones with the furthest expiry dates. Also, she will definitely look to see if the product is still sealed. You won't see any Instagram-worthy products, but products that serve its primary function: to do its job of keeping you full. Or clean.


Think you can design and build the greatest amusement park in the world? You select the site, you lay out the rides and attractions. You control every aspect of running a profitable amusement park: from staffing to R&D. Any mistakes, and tourists who populate your park will be sure to let you know. Oh, and that merry-go-round in flames is a clue too.


As part of the brand's ongoing 50th anniversary celebrations, Ralph Lauren will soon release a collection of watches featuring its famous mascot, the Polo Bear.
The Polo Bear watch collection is expected to hit Ralph Lauren's Polo e-commerce store and a number of retail outlets in the near future. The watch collection features a number of designs all featuring the brand's famous teddy bear logo on the watch face. The collection will retail for around $2,000 apiece.
The exclusive collection of watches includes four different bears that have all previously featured on Ralph Lauren's branding. These are the Ivy League-inspired Preppy Bear, the 1989 runway-style Flag Bear, the suit-wearing Martini Bear, and the spectacled Spectactor Bear. This collection marks the first watch design made specifically for the Polo brand. The collection also debuted the day after the birthday of Ralph Lauren himself.
The watches include RL300-1 movement and lacquered cream white dials. The watches' interchangeable straps are made from necktie silk twill patterns and also feature French calfskin and alligator-skin.
As part of the Ralph Lauren brand's half-century celebrations, the brand also recently released a '90s-inspired "Downhill Skier" collection that features brightly hued logos and "1992"-emblazoned hats.

The week in sports: Tonight's spectators limited to family; future attendance to be evaluated
by Beth Melo on December 21, 2021
Above: Boys Basketball's season is off to a strong start with a second win. (images above and below courtesy of Owen Jones Photography)
[Highlights from last week's competitions and what's on tap this week in high school sports.]
If the cheering in Algonquin's gym isn't loud tonight, it won't necessarily reflect Boys Basketball's performance on the court.
The team is off to a strong start (2-0) as covered by the Telegram last week. Unfortunately, a sudden uptick in Covid cases at the school has prompted a restriction in attendance. (To understand the decision, you may want to check out pics of the stands from their last game.)
From the administration:
Today, we were notified of ten ARHS students who recently tested positive for COVID-19. Additionally, we are awaiting test results from several others. Due to this rapid uptick in positive cases in our student population and in an effort to ensure that our events are safe for our students and families, student spectators are prohibited from attending any of today's athletic contests. These include: boys JV1, JV2, and Varsity basketball games at home versus Shrewsbury AND girls JV1 and JV2 games away versus Shrewsbury.
Please note: adult family members and siblings of players are welcome to attend. Please remember, masks are required to be worn properly (covering the mouth and nose) at all times.
There are no restrictions for students planning to attend the winter concert as the spacing in the auditorium prevents the type of crowding that we typically see at athletic events.
We are evaluating our ability for students to attend future athletic events and will share that information as soon as it's made available. I recognize how enjoyable our athletic events can be. However, it is critical that we do everything we can to keep students and staff safe and healthy; limiting fans at athletic events is one mitigation strategy we can employ to try to ensure in-person instruction is not disrupted.
Last week, the Telegram wrote about Boys Basketball as one of two Algonquin teams that show promise this season despite having lost key players to past success.
Algonquin Regional boys' basketball has had plenty of experience over the past decade transitioning on from a dominant big man — and coach Brian Doherty faces that same challenge again this year after center Todd Brogna transferred to Worcester Academy.
Brogna is the latest in the line a line of outstanding frontcourt players out in Northborough — following in the footsteps of A.J. Brodeur and Alex Karaban — but despite losing the top scorer in Central Mass. Division 1, Doherty has his squad off to a running start.
"We don't have that go-to stud, and we don't need it this year because we're very deep, very athletic and very quick," Doherty said. "This is a completely different style than we've played in the past. It's fun for me, and the kids love it. They're really buying into it." (read more)
Another undefeated team, with four wins under their belt as of last night, is Girls Hockey. The Telegram wrote:
Any concerns that the Algonquin girls hockey team would experience some sort of power outage following the graduation of Kerryn O'Connell has been quickly put to rest.
O'Connell – the program's all-time points leader and owner of the highest point-per-game ratio in school history – is now in New Haven, Connecticut, continuing her hockey career at Div. I Sacred Heart University.
Following the maroon and gold's 10-0 win over host Franklin at Pirelli Veterans Memorial Arena, it's clear that the Algonquin (3-0) offense hasn't missed a beat in O'Connell's absence, outscoring opponents 26-0 thus far.
It hasn't been just one player filling that void left by O'Connell. It has been a complete group effort for the co-operative team that has players from not only Algonquin, but also Hudson, Marlborough, Nashoba, Clinton and AMSA. (read more)
The paper also tweeted a video highlight from the Franklin game last Thursday:

Last week wasn't as good for most of Gonk's other varsity teams.
Boys Hockey won the first round of the Boroughs Cup, 8-1 over Westborough. (You can read about that in the Community Advocate.) But, they lost the Championship 6-2 to Marlborough. (You can read about that in the Telegram.)
For the news below, click links the Telegram's info on individual athletes' achievements (even when the overall team score was a loss):
Girls Basketball lost 51-63 to Notre Dame, followed by a 52-43 win over St. Paul's
In Swimming/Diving, Gonk Boys bested Shrewsbury 105-65 while the Girls lost 100-37
Wrestling lost to three teams in a tri-meet with Mt Hope, Central RI, and Canton RI.
In other, news related to Algonquin Athletics, the Regional School Committee approved the Mascot Study Group's winnowed down list of options. The next steps are completion of design concepts to share with students, followed by a student vote to pick their top choice. You can read more in the Community Advocate.
Now, here are the ARHS varsity games on tap for the week.

Chief LaForme passes the torch in New Credit
National Jim Windle • December 9, 2015 • Views 141 • Comments off Share
Mississaugas of the New Credit will soon have a new Chief. Outgoing Chief, Bryan LaForme, has decided to pass the torch to a new generation after 14 years as Chief. One of the many good memories LaForme will be taking with him was his community hosting the Pan/Am Games this past summer. LaForme is pictured here joking back stage with the legendary Buffy St.Marie at the Pan Am Gala. PHOTO BY JIM WINDLE
NEW CREDIT — After 14 years serving the Mississaugas of the New Credit as Elected Chief, Bryan LaForme has decided to "hang it up and let somebody else have a go at it," as he puts it.
Over the course of those 14 years, LaForme has seen a lot happen in his community, some good and some not-so-good, but he maintains the good times far outweighed the bad.
With this Saturday's elections on the near horizon, LaForme feels bittersweet about leaving office after winning seven consecutive mandates from the people, but believes it's the right time to do so.
"I never really planned on serving that long," he says. "It just kinda happened that way because we were always in the middle of projects that I wanted to see through. It certainly has been a privilege, for me anyway, to represent our community and have the community's support along with that of my family, particularly my wife Liz who always supported what I did and dealt with me being away from home all the time. It kind of puts a strain on a family but she has always been there for me."
He presently has no ambitions to run for any other office, provincially or nationally, but reserves that consideration for another time, if ever.
"I've been asked to do a few things but I have not decided yet," he says. "I want to take some time off and go where I want to, when I want to for a while and get all that out of my system."
For 10–years of his term in office, he was in negotiations over the Mississauga land claim which was eventually settled in 2010 to the tune of $145 million, the largest settlement in Canadian history up until that point.
"You are never going to please everyone," acknowledges LaForme. "Some think we should have held out longer, but we were faced with a take it or leave it offer and by accepting it, we have secured at least some future for our people through investments."
Every registered band member also receives an annual interest payment of between $1500 and $3,500, every year just before Christmas, depending on how the investments do on the stock market.
"The high points for me were the Mississauga settlement, which were very tense at times," he reflects. "The other was to host the Pan Am Games on our traditional territory this past summer. I think the Games really put New Credit on the map as far as recognition goes."
Despite some disappointments he believes his community's involvement on the Pan Am Games was well worth the hard work and headaches.
"It really let people know who we are," he says.
LaForme was especially proud of the Pan Am torch run that came through the New Credit Community in advance of the games and the attention it brought to New Credit.
"It was good that it would come through a First Nations Territory, but it also gave recognition and honour to the 'Front Runners,'" says LaForme.
The Front Runners, as they have been called, were a group of young boys who, because of their athleticism and feel good photo-ops, were picked to run the torch from Winnipeg into Minnesota, at distance of around 500 miles, back in the 1960s.
"They were residential school boys," Laforme recalls. "After running it for 500 miles, when they got to the stadium with the torch, they were not allowed to go in. They had to hand it off to a non-Native to carry the torch in. They were then taken to a restaurant where they were given a pancake breakfast and sent back to residential school."
The front runners, now elderly men, were on hand at a number of events leading up to and during this year's Pan Am Games. Any disappointments stemmed from not being included in the planning of the games from the beginning and being forced to play catch-up with a panel of people who did not understand the concept of being a host nation and what that means to First Nations.
Other highlights have to do directly with the People of New Credit.
"We were able to build more housing," he says. "We started a sub-division, we got water, even though it is not completed yet. We also have a new Community Centre."
Sitting at a table at the Country Style Coffee Shop and Bistro at the New Credit Plaza, Laforme looked around with pride in the community obtaining a franchise, the first Native owned Country Style franchise in the chain.
LaForme is also proud of the friends, associates and good relationships he has had opportunity to make during his time as Chief, including National leaders of both Canada and Onkwehonwe Nations across Turtle Island.
At the same time, however, LaForme was pleased with the platform he and all First Nations had to help educate Canadians about the role they have played in the building of Canada.
The most important message he believes was delivered, and the message he always carried to the non-Native world, is the individuality of all 633 First Nations across Canada and the 133 throughout Ontario.
"My message has been that you can't use a cookie cutter approach in dealing with First Nations," he says. "We are all different."
This coming election, LaForme doesn't mind revealing whom he will be voting for. His money is on longtime councillor Stacey LaForme to take over his office. Stacey is running against former New Credit Chief, Larry Sault.


Let's enjoy the opening lines of Lewis Carroll's "Jabberwocky:"
And the mome raths outgrabe.'"
And here's the boy's father, bubbling with pride, describing his son with a word that means "bright, cheerful, and hopeful:"
"'And, has thou slain the Jabberwock?
Come to my arms, my _____sh boy!
He chortled in his joy."
That brings us to the delightful word chortle. Let's explore it!
To chortle is to chuckle happily.
"he chortles," "she chortled," "they chortled over their coffee mugs."
"Chortle" can also be a noun, the countable kind.
Usually, "chortling" is soft laughter, controlled laughter, laughter you're trying to hide or tame: it's not nearly as loud or unrestrained as guffawing, howling, or cachinnating.
Talk about people chortling, often at or over something funny, with joy, to themselves, among themselves, etc.
It's less common, but you can use "chortle" in a transitive way: "he chortled the song," "she chortled the comment." And although you can use "chortle" to tag your dialogue ("he chortled 'no way,'" "she chortled a quick 'oh my goodness'"), I don't recommend doing that. It just sounds awkward to me.
To use the noun, talk about someone's chortle(s), or about people who say or do something with a chortle: "he agreed with a chortle."
For an adjective, use "chortling:" "the chortling audience," "their chortling glee."
I knew she'd just set up a prank when I saw her covering her mouth, chortling with anticipation.
"He chortled to himself, rocking and bouncing as if he were a lanky, bearded, drunken volcano preparing to erupt with delight at his own brilliance."
Look away from the screen to define "chortle" without saying "to titter" or "a sensible chuckle."
Fill in the blanks: "(Someone) chortles, (retelling how, remembering how, or pointing out that) _____."
Example: "He chortles, remembering how he and his friends would drive through McDonald's and order a small water with cheese."
From the previous issue: Can you think of an athletic company named after a Greek goddess?
Try this one today: Can you think of a vehicle named after a French province?
2. He elicits a few chortles from the audience, _____.


cute patterns! This would be great on pillows and tote bags!

En la tradición cristiana, el amor al dinero es condenado como un pecado basado principalmente en textos como Eclesiastés 5:10 y 1 Timoteo 6:10. La condena cristiana se refiere a la avaricia y la codicia más que al dinero en sí mismo. Los textos cristianos (escrituras) están llenos de parábolas y usan temas fáciles de entender, como el dinero, para transmitir el mensaje real, hay más paralelos en Solón y Aristóteles, y Massinissa - que atribuyó el amor al dinero a Aníbal y los cartagineses. La avaricia es uno de los siete pecados mortales en las clasificaciones cristianas de los vicios (pecados).

Judaísmo
Berachya Hanakdan enumera el "amor al dinero" como un amor secular, mientras que Israel Salanter considera el amor al dinero por sí mismo como una fuerza interior no universal. Un cuento sobre el Rabino Avraham Yehoshua Heshel de Apt (1748-1825), rabino en Iasi, cuenta que él, que normalmente despreciaba el dinero, tenía el hábito de ver con buenos ojos el dinero antes de dárselo a los pobres en Purim, ya que sólo al valorar el regalo podía éste expresar el amor de Dios. Berachot 54a enseña a los hombres de negocios a "elevar su amor por el dinero al mismo estatus que su amor por Dios, lo que significa que deben amar a Dios lo suficiente como para seguir su mandamiento".

Cristianismo

Texto de origen
El original griego Koine dice, ῥίζα γὰρ πάντων τῶν ἐστιν ἐστιν ἡ φιλαργυρία (Rhiza gar pantōn tōn kakōn estin hē philargyria) - "la raíz de todo tipo de mal es el amor al dinero".

La palabra griega αργυρία(argyria) puede, al igual que sus cognados en muchos idiomas europeos, traducirse como plata o dinero.

Un texto popular actual, la versión King James muestra 1 Timoteo 6:10:

Porque el amor al dinero es la raíz de todos los males, que mientras algunos codiciaban, se han apartado de la fe y se han traspasado con muchos dolores.

(Se muestra el verso completo pero se añadió en negrita siendo el tema de esta página.)

Otro texto popular, la Nueva Versión Internacional tiene "Por amor al dinero es la raíz de todo tipo de maldad..."

Durante la reforma, Martín Lutero (1483-1546) tradujo la entonces Biblia latina al alemán, y 1 Timoteo 6:10 "Porque la avaricia es la raíz de todo mal..."

Poco después de la traducción de la Biblia al alemán de Martín Lutero, William Tyndale (1494-1536) hizo una traducción similar al inglés como "Porque la codicia es la raíz de todo mal;..."

El gramático Daniel B. Wallace enumera seis posibles traducciones alternativas del texto griego primario, 1 Timoteo 6:10. Hay dos razones para ello: primero, es difícil saber si el sustantivo "raíz" tiene la intención de ser indefinido, definitivo o cualitativo. En segundo lugar, la palabra griega para "todos" puede significar "todos sin exclusión" o "todos sin distinción". Pero al leer más versículos a ambos lados de 1 Timoteo 6:10 una mayor seguridad y confianza de que el mensaje es la codicia y el esfuerzo de la codicia por algo en la tierra es el pecado que los judíos y los cristianos definen, donde el dinero podría ser intercambiado con cualquier otra cosa en la tierra, por ejemplo, el poder. Lo opuesto a la codicia es la caridad, cada uno de los Siete pecados capitales tiene una contrapartida en las Siete virtudes.

Historia cultural
Agustín define el amor al dinero como una subcategoría de la avaricia. Lutero se refirió al amor al dinero en fuertes acusaciones contra la Iglesia Católica en su trabajo inicial de las Noventa y cinco Tesis o Disputa sobre el Poder de las Indulgencias. Vio la venta de una indulgencia por parte de la iglesia, es decir, el pago de dinero a la iglesia para obtener una reducción de la pena por los pecados del purgatorio (una creencia exclusiva de la iglesia católica) como una avaricia más comercial de la iglesia que como un bien real para la persona cristiana. Más tarde, en algunos sermones, él puso de relieve a los prestamistas comerciales que resultaron ser judíos y se puede argumentar que tienen un trasfondo antisemita.. Sin embargo, más al punto es la tesis 43 de la tesis de los Noventa y Cinco "Un cristiano que da a los pobres o presta a los necesitados lo hace mejor a los ojos de Dios que uno que compra 'perdón' (compra una indulgencia)", como en un judío que cambió de ser un prestamista de dinero con codicia a un prestamista de dinero con caridad lo haría mejor a los ojos de Dios que simplemente comprando un pedazo de papel que decía que pasaría menos tiempo en el purgatorio desde el punto de vista de Lutero.

A COMPARISON IN VINYL FLOOR OFFERINGS - LVT VS VCT
With the recent launch of Joy Squared, Shaw Contract is adding an LVT product to our portfolio in a square tile format. We thought we would take a moment to explain what LVT is and how it differs from a more traditional vinyl offering, VCT.
COLOUR AND THE BUILT ENVIRONMENT
The impact of colour in our inhabited spaces has a profound, subliminal effect on how we process and interact with the world, others and ourselves. As students of design, we understand that the colors we choose for a designed space are emblematic of a mood, a culture or an intended outcome. How does this shade of grey make our patients feel when they're in a healing environment? Which shade of blue brings luxurious calm to a hospitality environment?
BDNY 2019 Roundup

See some of our favorite moments from the show below.
HOW CAN ARCHITECTURE RESPOND TO THE LOCAL ENVIRONMENT AND SPEAK TO A GLOBAL AUDIENCE?
In the world of design, sustainability can take many forms. It can involve a renewable material. It can mandate buildings that respect the geography of a place. It can come from architecture that favors local materials and building types. Or it can encompass all of the above, as the work of the three design professionals profiled here illustrates so eloquently.
SHANNAN BILLINGS AND JOHN STEPHENS
HOW DO OUR DECISIONS MAKE AN IMPACT AT EVERY SCALE— AT HOME, IN COMMUNITY, AND ON THE PLANET?
You could call this a marriage of the minds. John Stephens is the Vice President of Marketing for Shaw Contract. Shannan Billings is the Senior Director of Global Sourcing for Shaw Industries, the parent company to Shaw Contract. He's a former history major. She can't get through a meeting without using the word "molecule" more than a dozen times. They share a belief system, an employer and their home. Is this a house united? Here's what happens when they sit down to talk.
HOW CAN GOVERNMENTS PROMOTE SUSTAINABILITY AND HEALTHY ENVIRONMENTS FOR ALL THEIR CITIZENS?
City governments are increasingly recognised as leaders on environmental issues. But one important tool they use to promote sustainability—procurement—sometimes flies under the radar.
HOW DO WE DESIGN FOR THE OTHER 99%?
I'm an optimist, by nature, so I've had to befriend failure over the course of my career—seeing it as instructive for the next big thing, rather than a referendum on my leadership or the capacity of change in design. I experienced this most acutely when I co-created "The 1%" pro bono design program with my colleagues at Public Architecture in the mid-aughts.
HOW CAN DESIGN FOSTER CONSERVATION AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT?
In the jungle of the Congo Basin, in a part of the Democratic Republic of Congo that is six hours by motorcycle from the nearest airstrip, the Ilima Primary School serves as a learning and community centre that enables and encourages integration with local wildlife. Opened in 2015, the school was designed and built by the architecture firm MASS Design Group, in collaboration with the African Wildlife Foundation.
What Do We Hold Dear?
Second chances abound in the work of emerging artist Juli Bolaños-Durman.
HOW CAN BEAUTY CHANGE OUR MINDS?
We have to reevaluate the idea that this land is here for our consumption.
WHY SHOULD DESIGNERS COLLABORATE WITH SCIENTISTS— AND NATURE ITSELF?
More than 60 trans-disciplinary projects including two large-scale, site-specific installations. Five curators. A six-person advisory board. A 240-page book. And countless hours of investigation, meditation, experimentation and scholarship. Those are just a few ingredients in the heady stew of "Nature—Cooper Hewitt Design Triennial," the sixth instalment of the museum's signature exhibition.
WHAT DOES IT TAKE TO FOSTER A CULTURE OF DIALOGUE?
Today, the design industry is complex. Key ingredients used to be attention to detail, market analysis and strong technical knowledge. However, ethics and building consensus increasingly surface as more important design skills.
Seeking The Horizon
That starting point of elusive, natural beauty is the inspiration behind the new custom collection Mist.

WHAT DOES IT TAKE TO MAKE DYE LAB?
Dating back to the eighth century, dyeing technique consisted of taking fabrics that are bound, stitched, folded, twisted, compressed or clamped then dipping them into a colour bath. The results were not just distinctive in pattern but in depth of colour, too. The Shaw Contract design team took inspiration from this ancient textile dyeing method when conceptualising new colours to update our best-selling Dye Lab collection.
For this year's Design Awards, we pulled together an elite group of judges from all around the globe. For us, the Design Awards are a celebration of the creative vision architects and designers bring to the world. They highlight the truly innovative and inspiring work being done by the design community.

DESIGN AWARDS GIVE BACK
In its 14 years, the Shaw Contract Design Awards Program has given nearly $150,000USD to non-profit and charitable organisations around the world. Each year, the final winners and People's Choice Award winner select a charity of their choice to donate $2000 USD as part of their prize winnings. This allows designers the opportunity to make an impact beyond the built environment.
WHAT MAKES DESIGN GOOD?
This year's Shaw Contract Design Award Final and People's Choice winners have shown us how designers are reacting to evolving needs in the built environment. The very nature of an awards program begs the question, what actually defines good design? How do judges of a competition like this decide on standout talent and ingenuity? We asked two of our Final judges, Karen Daroff of Daroff Design and Sophie Safrin of Hot Black to weigh in on their definition of good design, observed trends and the future of design.

We've answered some of the questions you may have about carbon neutral manufacturing and how it works.


Revelation 9:19 For the power of the horses was in their mouths and in their tails; indeed, their tails were like snakes, having heads with which to inflict harm.
Their power was in their mouths and in their tails. For their tails had heads like snakes, with the power to injure people.
For the powers of the horses are in their mouths and in their tails; for their tails are like serpents having heads, and with them they injure.
For the power of the horses is in their mouths and in their tails, because their tails, which resemble snakes, have heads that inflict injury.
The horses had powerful mouths, and their tails were like poisonous snakes that bite and hurt.
For the power of the horses is in their mouths and also in their tails. Their tails are like snakes with heads, and they use them to hurt people.
For the power of the horses is in their mouths and in their tails, for their tails, which resemble snakes, have heads, and they inflict injury with them.
For the power of these horses is in their mouths and their tails. Their tails have heads like snakes, which they use to inflict pain.
For the power of the horses resides in their mouths and in their tails, because their tails are like snakes, having heads that inflict injuries.
For the power of the horses is in their mouths, and in their tails. For their tails are like serpents, and have heads, and with them they harm.
Because the power of the horses was in their mouths, and also in their tails.
For the power of the horses is in their mouths and in their tails; for their tails are like serpents and have heads; and with them they do harm.
For their power is in their mouth and in their tails; for their tails were like unto serpents that have heads, and with them they do hurt.
For their power is in their mouth, and in their tails: for their tails were like unto serpents, with heads, and with them they do hurt.
For their power is in their mouth, and in their tails: for their tails were like to serpents, and had heads, and with them they do hurt.
For the power of the horses is in their mouth, and in their tails: for their tails are like unto serpents, and have heads; and with them they hurt.
For the power of the horses is in their mouths, and in their tails. For, their tails are like to serpents, and have heads: and with them they hurt.
For the power of the horses is in their mouth, and in their tails: for their tails are like unto serpents, and have heads; and with them they do hurt.
For the power of the horses is in their mouths and in their tails; their tails being like serpents, and having heads, and it is with them that they inflict injury.
Strong's Greek 3769: A tail. Apparently a primary word; a tail.
Verse 19. - For their power is in their mouth, and in their tails; for the power f the horses is, etc. Another example of disagreement between Erasmus and all the Greek manuscripts (see on ver. 10). For their tails were like unto serpents, and had heads, and with them they do hurt. "Are like," and "have heads," in the present tense. Here (unlike ver. 10) the tails are like serpents themselves. The image is not uncommon among the ancients. We may paraphrase the passage thus: "Their power is for the most part in their mouth; but also, to some extent, in their tails; for their tails are like serpents," etc. An endless variety of interpretations have been given to these details, which are probably not intended to bear any distinct signification. Bengel refers to a species of serpent in which the head and tail were so alike as to be with difficulty distinguished; which he thinks may have suggested the image. Many apply it (though in different ways) to the Turkish horse, who fight as they retreat, etc.

Severin suspended for comments about Mexican immigrants
Comments about Mexicans and swine flu by WTKK radio host Jay Severin have prompted a flood of complaints to station management. (Suzanne Kreiter/Globe Staff/File 2001)
By David Abel
Globe Staff / May 1, 2009
Email|
Jay Severin, the fiery right wing talk show host on Boston's WTKK-FM radio station, was suspended yesterday after calling Mexican immigrants "criminaliens," "primitives," "leeches," and exporters of "women with mustaches and VD," among other incendiary comments.
Heidi Raphael, a spokeswoman for the station, said Severin had been suspended indefinitely from his afternoon drive-time show. She declined to say which of his comments - made since an outbreak of swine flu was linked to Mexico in recent days - sparked the suspension.
"I can assure you that the station has not been using the remarks for which he has been suspended in on-air promos," she said, declining to comment further.
In an e-mail, Severin, a bombastic voice whose views often mirror those of fringe conservatives and who rarely lacks something to say, referred questions to his lawyer. "I am simply not at liberty to discuss it at this time," he wrote.
George Tobia, his lawyer, said it was not clear how long Severin will be on suspension. "All we know is it's indefinite," he said in a telephone interview. "We're just learning of it, and we're dealing with it."
Severin's comments sparked deep concern among Mexicans and other Latinos living in the Boston area, prompting what Tobia described as a flood of complaints to station management in recent days.
"It would certainly be unfortunate if someone was suspended because some people didn't like what he said," Tobia said.
He said he did not know Severin's precise comments.
In one of his broadcasts this week, Severin said: "So now, in addition to venereal disease and the other leading exports of Mexico - women with mustaches and VD - now we have swine flu."
Later, he described Mexicans as "the world's lowest of primitives."
"When we are the magnet for primitives around the world - and it's not the primitives' fault by the way, I'm not blaming them for being primitives - I'm merely observing they're primitive," he said.
He added that Mexicans are destroying schools and hospitals in the United States. He also criticized their hygiene.
"It's millions of leeches from a primitive country come here to leech off you and, with it, they are ruining the schools, the hospitals, and a lot of life in America," he said.
He added: "We should be, if anything, surprised that Mexico has not visited upon us poxes of more various and serious types already, considering the number of criminaliens already here."
In a previous broadcast this week, Severin argued that the Obama administration wasn't taking sufficient action to seal the border.
"The usual 5,000 criminaliens that come across the Arizona border will probably be 8,000 tonight, and maybe tomorrow it will be 12,000, because even Mexicans are going to be trying to get out of Mexico at a greater rate."
Afterward, while talking to a nurse who called his show to complain about healthcare provided to immigrants, he commiserated with her when she said she was glad she didn't work in an emergency room.
"Yeah, well, that's become essentially condos for Mexicans," he said.
It is not the first time Severin has faced criticism for derogatory comments about minorities on his weekday program. On a 2004 broadcast, he compared US Muslims to a fifth column, and when a caller suggested that the United States should befriend Muslims, Severin responded: "You think we should befriend them; I think we should kill them."
He has called former Vice President Al Gore "Al Whore," Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton "a lying [expletive]," and Senator Edward M. Kennedy "a fat piece of lying garbage."
Severin has also been criticized over the years for falsely saying that he had won a Pulitzer Prize and that he had earned a master's degree from Boston University.
Amparo Anguiano, deputy consul of the Consulate General of Mexico in Boston, called Severin's latest language "hatemongering."
"All he does is spread hate," she said. "It's not the first time immigrants have been denigrated unfoundedly for being dirty, uncivilized, and bringing in diseases. There's nothing more to say, other than these statements spread unfounded biases, hate, and prejudice."
Marcela Garcia, editor of El Planeta, a Boston-based publication distributed to Latinos throughout the region, said she shudders when she hears Severin on the radio.
" Any time I catch him on the radio, it's aggravating, insulting, and disgusting," she said. "I just can't listen to him. He doesn't just show a lack of respect; he shows a lack of knowledge about what immigration means to this country. What he says just fuels the racist dialogue going on about immigration."
Franklin Soults, a spokesman for the Massachusetts Immigrant & Refugee Advocacy Coalition, called Severin's language "dehumanizing."
"What he said is just patently offensive," he said. "There has been a huge rise in hate crimes against immigrants, especially Hispanics, and on the show, he doesn't just talk about Mexicans as criminals, he talks about them as if they were animals and should be quarantined.
Severin's lawyer said he expects that ultimately, his client will be back on the airways.
"I think we're going to sit down with them [station officials] soon and just go forward and put it past us," Tobia said. "I'm confident he'll be back on the air soon, but I don't know when or what the particulars are."

Saturday's Marrakesh ePrix was a cracker of a race for Mahindra Racing, Felix Rosenqvist and Indian motorsport fans all over the world. Rosenqvist clinched victory for Mahindra Racing, his 3rd for the team, also making him the only driver to have won races for the team in its Formula E history. This victory also marked Mahindra Racing's first ever back-to-back-win (they won the previous ePrix in Hong Kong a month ago) which goes a long way in confirming the team's performance and consistency.
The victory also meant that Rosenqvist stormed to the top of the Formula E 2017/18 championship standings ahead of Sam Bird (50 points) and Jean-Éric Vergne (43 points), making his presence felt as a serious title contender. Mahindra Racing leads the Teams' Championship, ahead of DS Virgin Racing and Techeetah.
This was also the first time the Indian national anthem played in Formula E this season - fans will remember that the team's earlier victory this season (in Round 2 of the Hong Kong ePrix) happened post podium proceedings when Rosenqvist inherited first place after Daniel Abt was disqualified for an infringement of FIA rules.
This was by no means an easy race or expected win - Rosenqvist started only fifth on the grid after a botched Super Pole run in qualifying. Despite making progress after Lucas di Grassi dropped out of the race early on, and Sam bird had a problem with his car on the main straight, Rosenqvist looked destined to finish second behind pole sitter Sebastien Buemi, who comfortably led for most of the race. However, things turned around with just four laps to go as Rosenqvist pulled off a textbook perfect move on Buemi by driving down the inside at Turn 7 to take the lead - and victory at the chequered flag.
Further down the pecking order, Nelson Piquet Jr. turned in another consistent performance finishing fourth for Jaguar Racing. He also recorded the the fastest lap of the race. Jean-Eric Vergne finished fifth for Techeetah. The second Mahindra driver Nick Heidfeld saw his race hopes dashed after a disastrous qualifying session saw him losing control of his car in cool, slippery conditions and start 18th on the starting grid. Even so, he managed to bring the car home in seventh after a plucky drive. He said, "It was an eventful race, and was tough driving out there today, my car was quite damaged, due to my qualifying crash. The aim was to finish strongly and keep the car in one piece while not doing anything risky." There were also points for Formula E debutant Tom Blomqvist, driving for the Andretti team.
The FIA had announced its intention to scrap the 'minimum time' that drivers must spend in the the pitlane at the Marrakesh ePrix - believing that teams had managed the "fastest possible stop," negating the risk in removing the limit. This would probably add drama to the sport (especially since the pitstops are considered the least exciting parts of the race). However, most teams protested against this decision, arguing that removing the minimum time made the pitstops into an outright timed competition - and create potential mistakes. The teams were successful in lobbying to keep the minimum pitstop time kept in place for this weekend's race as the FIA overturned its decision. However, there is a high chance that timed pitstops will be introduced at the debut Chile ePrix in February.
There were high hopes from Neel Jani in Formula E, given his track record as a Porsche LMP1 star at the World Endurance Championship. However, Jani split from the Dragon Racing team to leave Formula E after just one race weekend in the series. The split is ostensibly due to a failed campaign to organise a Porsche engineering tie-up (similar to the Venturi/HWA or Andretti/BMW deals). Sadly, Jani had a dismal showing in the opening round in Hong Kong, lapping 18th in both rounds. Jani was replaced by Jose Maria Lopez, who marked his return to Formula E with a sixth place finish for the Dragon team - scoring the team's first points of the season.
Will the series organisers be working overtime to find a replacement? The ePrix was scheduled for July 2018, so they have 6 months to find a replacement. However, Formula E's ever-changing calendar would be a worry for all stakeholders involved - the teams, organisers and sponsors. But despite such setbacks, Richard Branson (the owner of DS Virgin Racing) is positive that Formula E would overtake Formula 1 in ten years. "It's been incredibly exciting. It's growing very rapidly, every season they're bringing in new initiatives. I'm willing to forecast that 10 years from now, if Formula 1 continue in their current way, I think Formula E will overtake it," said Branson.
Nobody could have predicted the turn of events this Formula E season, on and off the track. While defending champion Lucas di Grassi is yet to score points this season, last year's rookie Rosenqvist is leading the rankings. While the racing seems to be interesting and competitive, it is the off-track matters and management that needs to keep pace.

Fox News Ratings Plummet After Abandoning MAGA Viewers
Here's how the Democrats 'rigged' the 2020 election
Fox News host Tucker Carlson said the 2020 election was "rigged" to favor President-elect Joe Biden in plain sight.
The top-rated cable news figure used his opening monologue on Monday to argue that Democrats orchestrated an expansive scheme to bend the presidential contest in their favor. He started by claiming that electronic voting is unreliable and called for a return to hand-counting paper ballots without the use of machines.
He made the case following a week in which Carlson challenged Sidney Powell, who is involved in the Trump legal fight in battleground states, to show evidence that voting machines are being used to flip votes and a couple hours after the General Services Administration authorized the transition to a Biden administration.
"You've heard a lot over the past few days about the security of our electronic voting machines. And this is a real issue, no matter who raises it or who tries to dismiss it out of hand as a conspiracy theory. Electronic voting is not as secure as traditional hand-counting, period. It never will be as secure. Voters can see this because it's obvious, and it makes them nervous," Carlson said.
Carlson blamed the country's leaders for sowing this doubt and claimed other countries avoid electronic voting "because they know it undermines confidence in democracy."
"Going forward, we need to find out exactly what happened in this month's presidential election. We need to find out no matter how long it takes the investigation to unfold or how much it costs. And once we get answers from that investigation, we ought to revert immediately to the traditional system of voting, the one that served our democracy for hundreds of years. What we are doing now is not working," he said.
President Trump and his allies have argued the presidential election was "rigged," and Trump, who has not conceded the race, is waging legal fights across several battleground states and has requested some recounts.
But evidence of widespread voter fraud has not turned up, and any problems with voting machines have been blamed on human error.
Earlier this month, the Homeland Security Department released a joint statement with some partners and advisers that said that "there is no evidence that any voting system deleted or lost votes, changed votes, or was in any way compromised." The statement also stressed that "the Nov. 3rd election was the most secure in American history."
Afterward, Trump fired Chris Krebs, who served as the director of the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, and said the statement was "highly inaccurate."
Carlson claimed the 2020 election was unfair in several other ways, part of a process that spanned across the entire year.
"On many levels, the system was rigged against one candidate and in favor of another. And it was rigged in ways that were not hidden from view. We all saw it happen. The media openly colluded with the Democratic nominees. Joe Biden and Kamala Harris refused to explain what they would do if they were elected. That's never happened before in any presidential election in American history. But the media allowed them to do it," he said.
"At the same time, beginning in the spring, Democrats used our public health emergency for nakedly partisan ends," he added, referring to the coronavirus pandemic. "They punished Trump supporters for trying to gather, but they exempted their own activists, rioters, and vandals from BLM [Black Lives Matter] and antifa from the COVID lockdowns entirely."
He said the restrictions Democrats did enforce "crushed" small businesses, which he said are "the heart" of the Republican Party, while their own donors got richer. He named Amazon founder Jeff Bezos and said the world's wealthiest man saw his net worth jump by more than $70 billion during the pandemic.
"Then, Democrats used the coronavirus to change your system of voting. They vastly increased the number of mail-in ballots because they knew their candidates would benefit from less secure voting, and they were right," he said.
"They used the courts to neutralize the Republican Party's single most effective 'get out the vote' operation, which, for generations, had been the National Rifle Association," Carlson continued. "Not enough has been written about this, but anyone on the ground saw it. Thanks to legal harassment from the Left, the NRA played a vastly reduced role in this election, and that made a huge difference in swing states like Pennsylvania and others."
Carlson said, "Above all" was how Democrats "harnessed the power of Big Tech to win this election," referring to how news is curated in Google and social media giants Twitter and Facebook deciding to "censor" ideas online.
"They rigged the election in front of all of us, and nobody did anything about it," he concluded.
Biden is projected to have 306 electoral votes, 36 more than is needed to win the Electoral College, and so far leads Trump by about 6 million in the popular vote, according to the Associated Press. Trump, who needs to flip more than one state to pull off a victory, is running out of time as states certify their votes, and the Electoral College meets in mid-December. Inauguration Day is Jan. 20.

The tester (circuit meter) is designs the electrical circuit and the electric circuit, and an indispensable measuring instrument for production and the repair. The direct voltage, direct current, the alternating voltage, and resistance, etc. can be generally measured by operating the changing-over switch. There are the analog one and the digital one.
DA-54LS digital multimeter of Sanwa that I am using It is YX-361TR analog tester of (left) and Sanwa (right). Special high-level goods are not necessary for the repair etc.
I think that I use an analog tester easily than a digital tester. It is not understood at all that the value changes in digital. If it is analog, it might be predictable in how of the needle to swing. When the capacity of the electrolytic condenser is seen with the ohmeter, it is impossible if it is not analog.
It might be earlier to be analog at time until measurements are displayed. The measurement cooking stove might be not steady, and I think that the response is generally late of digital.
An analog meter combines a moving coil and a permanent magnet and is made. When the current flows to the moving coil, the indicator is shaken by the balance of power of the interaction and the spring of magnetism with the coil and the magnetism of a permanent magnet.
Therefore, only direct current can be measured only by this meter. It rectifies with the diode to measure the exchange, it converts into direct current, and it measures it.
The ammeter of high sensitivity is very used for this meter. A lot of resistors are connected around the cooking stove switch switch. The purpose of it is to measure a current a lot of branch [sasete], and to measure it as a voltmeter by connecting the resistor of a large value with the series and decreasing the current to the meter in the resistor as for the current that has flowed from the measuring terminal.
It is a circuit to measure resistance composed of the battery and the resistance built into the ammeter and the tester. The measurement thing is passed an electric current with this battery and resistance is measured.
The tester can generally measure the direct voltage, direct current, the alternating voltage, and resistance, etc.The exchange current cannot be measured with a usual tester though there is the one that the exchange current can be measured in the inside, too.
The cooking stove is made a cooking stove corresponding to the voltage that tries to be measured by direct voltage DC[V] or alternating voltage AC[V].
It connects it with the terminal of ..minus (-).. ..red of tester stick.. ..plus (+).. display of the black of the tester stick to the terminal of the display (It is at the COM display).
Red of the tester stick is connected with one with high voltage, and the black of the tester stick is connected with one with low voltage for direct current. Both are not cared about at the exchange either.
When it is not easy to read it, the cooking stove switch is done. After the connection of the tester stick is removed at this time, it does.
The cooking stove is made a cooking stove corresponding to the voltage that tries to be measured in direct current DC[A].
It is noted that the terminal that connects the tester stick is different according to the tester at a large current.
The measured circuit is separated, red of the tester stick is connected with the flow of the current, and the black of the tester stick is connected with the flow of the current. In a word, it inserts in the circuit and the tester is inserted in the series.
Never connect the tester stick by the same sense as the voltmeter. A large current flows when connecting it just like the voltmeter because it is an ammeter and the meter breaks.
The cooking stove is switched to resistance [OHM]. The cooking stove that the resistance that tries to be measured at this time is in the vicinity of the center of the meter is chosen.
0-ohm regulator is adjusted so that the black of the tester stick and red of the tester stick are short-circuited, and the indicator may indicate 0OHM.
Because 0-ohm adjustment shifts when the cooking stove is switched, it readjusts.
The tester stick is connected with the place where it wants to measure resistance.
When resistance is not removed and measured, the power supply of the equipment is put into the state cut without fail. The battery is removed for the equipment using the battery.
Never connect the tester stick by the same sense as the voltmeter. A large current might flow when connecting it just like the voltmeter because the resistance cooking stove is the same basically operation as the ammeter and the meter break.
It is the one that can be used for various usages if the tester not only is made an original usage but also it devises it. I think that it might be faster the response of an analog tester, judge by the swinging condition of the needle, and use it easily for such a usage of this though it is possible to do also with a digital tester.
The quality of the diode and the transistor is judged by the tip of the resistive measurement.
The transistor and the diode might be able to be judged and to judge these qualities by measuring resister with an analog tester.
The current flows from the anode to the cathode in red of the tester stick (The voltage of the minus has gone out) for the diode (LED is also the same) if the cathode and the black (The voltage of the plus has gone out) are connected with the anode because the current flows from P type semiconductor to N type semiconductor. The current doesn't flow in the opposite. LED lights by the current of the tester when an appropriate cooking stove is selected.
When the voltage of the battery of the tester is lower than this because the voltage of directions of easy flow is at least 1.7V or more necessary, this measurement cannot be done for LED. Please note that there is the one for which the voltage of directions of easy flow of LED is 3V or more necessary, too recently.
Because the current flows from P type semiconductor to N type semiconductor, I understand the base for the time being for the transistor. The collector and how to distinguish the emitter do as follows.
It explains as an example of the NPN type (2SC and 2SD type). The tester is made about 1000 time resist cooking stove. A black stick (The plus has gone out of the voltage) of the tester is applied to the foot that seems that a collector it, and a red stick (this minus) is applied to the foot that seems that an emitter it as shown in the photograph. It touches between the foot and the base that seems that a collector it by the finger. If the needle of the tester swings more widely than the time usually applied only to the finger, the assumed foot is a collector and an emitter.
The PNP type reverses the color of the tester.
As the application, it is possible to use to look for becoming complete hfe as it looks for hfe large, and it is possible to identify it simply from among transistors how many. The transistor understands and whether it is alive or dead is understood. I am always before using the transistor. I do not think that it knows and there is a disadvantage.
This forms an easy amplifying circuit by using resistance the power supply of the tester and in the tester. The finger between the base and the emitter assumes the human body to be resistance and throws the current of the use base.
I think that I use the analogue easily for the tester.
SCR and MOS-FET can be checked with the tester.
Because the explanation is troublesome, it doesn't write here though there is a thing that thyristor (SCR) and field-effect transistor (MOS-FET) can be checked with the tester, too in reality. Please think independently.
The capacity omission and the insulation of the electrolytic capacitor have been judged by the tip of the resistive measurement.
The capacity omission of the electrolytic capacitor can be judged only with an analog tester though there is the one that the capacity of the capacitor can be measured in a recent digital multimeter, too.
An analog tester is made a high cooking stove of the resistive measurement, and it applies it to the electrolytic capacitor. The needle swings momentarily and it returns to the origin. Capacity can be presumed by the swinging condition of the indicator. It is possible to do even by degrees how many by replacing red and the black of the tester stick. It understands well if it compares it with a new thing.
The stick with a red tester becomes in the minus terminal of the capacitor and a steady instruction value when the stick with a black tester is applied to the plus terminal of the capacitor becomes the insulation resistance of the capacitor. The larger this value is, the better as the capacitor.
The tester is used as a galvanoscope by the tip of the amplitude measurement.
The voltmeter of a recent tester also is large internal resistance, and has the one of about 50kOHM/V. When it is 1000V cooking stove, internal resistance becomes 50M OHM. Internal resistance is 5M OHM in 100V cooking stove.
If it is this, it is possible to use it as a galvanoscope with 100V-1000V cooking stove of the voltmeter. The needle of the tester swings if this is a voltage side (Hot side) if a red stick is inserted in the outlet of 100V with the black of the tester stick by the hand in a word for instance. It doesn't swing on the earth side (Cold side). Both both needling swings if it is 200V.
However, self-responsibility of this, please. Do not use it in the voltage of 150V or more in the voltage of ground for safety. Moreover, do not neglect the attention of the limit in case of being on a carpet and a futon dry as it puts on shoes and slippers with a good insulation.
It is needed to know whether the electric wire is hot or cold at electrical work. It doesn't know and the incompetent constructed or there is occasionally a case that doesn't become the street though a hot side (black) and a cold side (white) are classified by the color of the electric wire. Moreover, the classification is not done to begin with in [i] wiring of corresponding old.

New rules seek to limit ICE arrests in N.J. courthouses
Nicholas Pugliese
New guidelines issued by New Jersey Supreme Court will make it more difficult for federal immigration officers to make arrests at courthouses in the state.(Charles Reed/U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement via AP)
New rules seek to limit arrests by federal immigration officers at New Jersey courthouses, but it's unclear what recourse courthouse personnel will have should officers fail to comply.
The directive issued Thursday by New Jersey Supreme Court Chief Justice Stuart Rabner also orders court staff to cut back on the information they collect about people's immigration status.
The top judge said he expected Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents to carry out civil enforcement actions in courthouses "only in rare situations." But when they do, he said, ICE agents should identify themselves and courthouse security personnel should ask to see a copy of a warrant that authorizes an arrest.
But no mention is made of what will happen if those guidelines are flaunted. A spokesman for the New Jersey Courts declined to address that question directly.
"The intention of the directive is to lay out the policy for courthouse personnel in dealing with federal immigration agents," the spokesman, Peter McAleer, said.
The directive is Rabner's latest attempt to stop enforcement actions by ICE agents in and around courthouses, which he has said discourages undocumented people from reporting crimes, seeking assistance and testifying in cases over fears it could lead to their deportation.
Judges nationally have likewise raised concerns that courthouse arrests threaten to undermine the justice system for everybody — citizens and non-citizens alike — if victims, defendants, witnesses and family members do not feel secure appearing in court.
Rabner appears to be making progress toward the goal of ending courthouse arrests, noting in his directive that John Tsoukaris, ICE's field office director for Newark, said in a recent meeting that ICE will "minimize" arrests in courthouses.
"The statement is accurate," an agency spokesman confirmed. "ICE has always sought to minimize arrests inside courthouses. Arrest location determinations are based on case specific circumstances."
The spokesman said ICE does not track the number of arrests that occur at courthouses, a tactic ICE has previously said is often necessitated by the unwillingness of local officials to transfer targeted individuals to its custody.
The agency has also said courthouse arrests reduce safety risks because visitors are typically screened for weapons before entering such buildings.
Rabner raised the issue of courthouse arrests in an April 2017 letter to then-Homeland Security Secretary John Kelly. He said ICE had recently arrested two people who had showed up for court appearances in a New Jersey court and asked that courthouses be added to a list of "sensitive locations" where ICE enforcement activity should not happen.
The list includes schools, hospitals, houses of worship and public demonstrations.
"To ensure the effectiveness of our system of justice, courthouses must be viewed as a safe forum," he wrote. "Enforcement actions by ICE agents inside courthouses would produce the opposite result and effectively deny access to the courts."
The Department of Homeland Security declined to make the change. But it did issue a new regulation in January 2018 stating that ICE agents "should generally avoid enforcement actions in courthouses." When such actions do occur, it added, they should take place in non-public areas of the courthouse and be conducted in collaboration with court security staff.
Rabner's directive also says courts should retain information about the immigration status of those who appear there "only when needed to fulfill a legitimate court purpose," such as during criminal matters or adoption proceedings.
"Courts will no longer collect immigration-related data for demographic or other non-specific purposes," the directive says.
Rabner said the new rules are consistent with the sweeping immigration order issued by state Attorney General Gurbir Grewal in November that limited cooperation between local law enforcement and ICE.
They do not go as far as a directive issued in New York last month that requires ICE officers to show a federal judicial warrant or order to a New York judge or court attorney before making an arrest in a courthouse.
ICE officers often rely on administrative warrants issued by the agency as opposed to judicial warrants, which are approved by a court.
