Doors Open 2015
Bob Georgiou Doors Open June 1, 2015 June 2, 2015 3 Minutes
R.C. Harris Water Treatment Plant
What can be said about the RC Harris Plant that hasn't been said? It's a stunner architecturally and just so pristine and sterile inside. While my mind was not equiped to really understand the water treatment process, I did enjoy the exposition for the need for such a facility – a growing city needs its infrastructure.
Greenwood Subway Yard
A really popular site and for me, it was cool to say that I went, but I'm not sure it did it for me. It featured some very long lines, a ride on a subway car around the yard, and a self-guided tour through the machine shop. Massive facility, but like at the RC Harris Plant, I didn't care much for how the subway cars worked.
401 Richmond wasn't formally part of Doors Open, but they ran tours through the building in their own 'Doors Ajar'. I did an architectural/historical walk, which was a complete treat because it is such a great building. The industrial history was great, and to know that it's been repurposed into a beautiful space where great artists and groups can do good work is just amazing.
High Level Pumping Station
Much like the water palace, I didn't care much for the workings of machinery itself as much as the contextual significance of the site. A nice treat, though, was the 1885 house behind the building, which served as the original pumping station for the Yorkville Waterworks and later the engineer's house.
Masonic Temple
This was my favourite site of the weekend. The Masonic Temple has such a layered history and InfoTech pays such good tribute to preserving it and keeping in with its ethos. The top floor is the hall where the Freemasons themselves met. It also features Mick Jagger's pool table from when the Stones stayed in the building and a swirly slide in an adjoined room. The bottom floors are largely office space, some of which was occupied by MTV, and to pay tribute to the building's entertainment past, all the rooms are named after artists who performed on its stage.
Arts & Letters Club
The Arts & Letters Club reminded me a lot of the Masonic Temple: performance hall on the ground floor, another 'hall' on the top floor with an elevated 'stage' as well, and office space in the floors between. It's also a fascinating piece of cultural heritage as many prominent people have been members of the club, including the Group of Seven.
Knox College
I did this site last year, but lamented not getting pictures. Bad timing prevented me from doing the tour again, but from what I remember, Knox shows up in more movies than any Toronto location (OK, next to Casa Loma). And for good reason – it's gorgeous.
This was the smallest and most hidden of all Doors Open sites this year, but easily one of the best. Coach House Books is located in a laneway north of Robarts, and like the name suggests, it's a publishing company headquartered in a former stable house. What's remarkable about Coach House is it has a staff of only three that is responsible for putting out such an amazing line of titles. A few of my favourite books – uTOpia, Some Great Idea, StrollTO, and most recently, The Ward – are Coach House titles.
Munk School of Global Affairs
I was really trying to get to St. George subway when I passed by the Munk School. Then I thought, 'Eh, why not?' and walked through its doors. I'm glad I did, because the school's Transit House was a nice gem. It's the only building in Toronto that's positioned in accordance to the needles of a compass. It also has clinker bricks!

Erwin Stein (* 10. Juni 1935 in Frankfurt am Main) ist ein ehemaliger deutscher Fußballspieler, der im Jahre 1959 zu einem Einsatz in der deutschen Fußballnationalmannschaft kam.

Karriere

Nationalmannschaft, 1959
Als Zehnjähriger eröffnete Erwin Stein in der Jugend der SG Bornheim seine Laufbahn. Über die Zwischenstation Olympia 07 landete er 1954 bei der SpVgg Griesheim 02. Mit 24 Jahren wurde er als Mittelstürmer von Bundestrainer Sepp Herberger und seinem Assistenten Georg Gawliczek für das Spiel am 15. April 1959 in Enschede gegen Holland in die deutsche Amateurauswahl berufen. Der antrittsschnelle und schussstarke Stürmer erfüllte mit zwei Treffern beim 2:0-Sieg alle in ihn gesetzten Erwartungen. Aufgrund der ab dem 16. Mai stattfindenden Endrunde um die deutsche Fußballmeisterschaft nominierte der Bundestrainer den hessischen Amateurspieler überraschend auch für das Aufgebot der Fußballnationalmannschaft für das Freundschaftsspiel am 20. Mai 1959 in Hamburg gegen Polen. Beim Stand von 0:1 Toren wurde Erwin Stein in der 63. Minute eingewechselt, in der 81. Minute erzielte er den 1:1-Ausgleich, der auch den Endstand bedeutete. Am 27. Mai stürmte er zum zweiten Mal in der Amateurnationalmannschaft. Beim 2:0-Erfolg gegen England in Siegen wurde er wieder als zweifacher Torschütze gefeiert. Zum 50-jährigen Bestehen des Luxemburgischen Fußballverbandes fand am 13. Juni 1959 ein Spiel zwischen einer Belgischen und einer deutschen Auswahl statt. Belgien gewann mit 3:1 Toren. Das Tor für die DFB-Auswahl erzielte Erwin Stein. Im Finale um die deutsche Fußballmeisterschaft 1959 standen sich am 28. Juni 1959 Eintracht Frankfurt und Kickers Offenbach gegenüber. Die Eintracht gewann in der Verlängerung mit 5:3 Toren. Dreifacher Torschütze für Frankfurt war der Mittelstürmer Eckehard Feigenspan. Da Feigenspan zum TSV 1860 München wechselte, verhandelte das Eintracht-Präsidium in großer Intensität mit dem umworbenen Torjäger von Griesheim 02. Stein unterschrieb einen Vertrag im Riederwald für die Oberliga Süd ab der Runde 1959/60 und war damit für die deutsche Amateurnationalmannschaft nicht mehr einsetzbar. Da die Qualifikationsspiele für die Olympischen Sommerspiele 1960 im November 1959 gegen Finnland und Polen stattfanden, war das ein Rückschlag für die Pläne des DFB an der Olympiade teilzunehmen. Erwin Stein bestritt am 23. August 1959 beim Startspiel mit Eintracht Frankfurt gegen die SpVgg Fürth sein erstes Spiel in der Oberliga Süd. Er steuerte zwei Tore zum 5:3-Erfolg der Eintracht bei. Seine Torjägerqualitäten kamen auch in der Oberliga zum Tragen. Bundestrainer Sepp Herberger nominierte den torgefährlichen Stürmer aber nicht zum nächsten Länderspiel am 4. Oktober 1959 in Bern gegen die Schweiz. Nie mehr erhielt Stein eine Einladung des DFB. Er kam in der Oberligarunde 1959/60 auf 24 Tore und zog mit der Eintracht im Europapokal der Landesmeister in das Finale am 18. Mai 1960 in Glasgow gegen Real Madrid ein. Sportlich war seine Visitenkarte erstklassig – sein Absprung aus der Amateurnationalmannschaft wurde ihm aber von Seiten des Bundestrainers nie verziehen.

Eintracht Frankfurt, 1959–1966
In sieben Jahren bei der Eintracht absolvierte Erwin Stein 342 Spiele (inklusive Freundschaftsspiele) und erzielt dabei 267 Tore. In der Oberliga Süd kam er von 1959 bis 1963 in 107 Spielen auf 75 Tore. Er feierte 1960 den Triumphzug nach Glasgow in das Finale gegen Real Madrid und schoss gegen den legendären José Santamaría, genannt "die Wand", zwei Tore  – zwischen der 72. und 75. Minute das 2:6 und das 3:7 – bei der 3:7 Endspielniederlage. In den Jahren 1961 und 1962 reichte es zweimal zur Vizemeisterschaft im Süden und er spielte mit der Eintracht in der Endrunde um die deutsche Fußballmeisterschaft. In der Saison 1960/61 wurde er zudem mit 24 Treffern Torschützenkönig der Oberliga Süd.

In der Fußball-Bundesliga hatte er von 1963 bis 1965 noch zwei gute Runden. Er nahm mit dem Spiel am 4. September 1965 bei Hannover 96 an der Seite von Jürgen Grabowski und Wolfgang Solz seinen Abschied als aktiver Spieler der Eintracht. Von 1963 bis 1966 hatte er in 41 Spielen 14 Tore in der neuen Klasse für die Hessen beigesteuert. Im DFB-Pokal war der Einzug in das Finale am 13. Juni 1964 gegen 1860 München der Höhepunkt. Das Endspiel gewannen die "Löwen" mit 2:0 Toren.

Einsatzstatistik mit Spielen und Toren

SV Darmstadt 98, 1966–1969
Als Routinier schnürte der 31-Jährige ab 1966 noch drei Runden in der Regionalliga Süd für die "Lilien" am Böllenfalltor die Fußballstiefel. In 83 Spielen kam er, jetzt im Mittelfeld spielend, auf 18 Tore.

Karriereausklang
Bei seinem alten Klub in Griesheim beendete Erwin Stein 1969/70 seine Spieler-Karriere im Amateurlager – dort, wo seine Karriere ihren Anfang genommen hatte. 1970 wirkte er noch für ein Jahr lang als Trainer bei Viktoria Griesheim.

Im Anschluss an seine sportliche Laufbahn betrieb er in Frankfurt-Griesheim einen Tabakwarenhandel mit einer Lotto-Annahmestelle.

In recent years TANDEM Hamburg has been a partner in a number of projects working on various ways of learning and teaching languages at European level with a focus on special target groups. This work has been awarded with various prizes; most important, however, has been the immense growth of our didactic and methodological competence and expertise in writing curricula. We are very proud of our involvement, which has influenced our programm, e.g. in the shape of our teacher training courses, and which will continue.
Development of a train-the-trainer course for language teachers on how to deal with visually impaired people and how to use and create teaching materials for this target group; development of adaptable computer-based training modules for business English designed for blind and visually impaired adult learners. Partnership: 10 partners from 5 countries.
Vet4Vip was awarded with the European Language Label in the vocational training area. On the 8th of November, Antonio Quatraro from the Italian Union of the Blind and Visually Impaired, Mario Paiano from Centro Machiavelli, and Thomas Deharde from the Deutsche Angestellten-Akademie received the award on behalf of the Vet4Vip partnership from the Italian National Agency in Rome.
The Socrates Project »Accessible Language Learning« (225780-CP-1-200, 2005 to 2007) successfully suggests new possibilities for learning a language to blind and visually impaired people. The combination of force-feedback appliances and 3D sound navigation creates an alternative user interface for a self-guides learning software that works without a screen reader and allows an interactive use of the PC. Here this technology is used for a language course »English for German speaking learners« und »German for English speaking learners«.
The project ELLVIS (502249-LLP-1-IT-COMENIUS, 2009 to 2011) also intended to improve the access of visually impaired persons to language learning. As good learning material for visually impaired children is rare, it is essential to create innovative material which opens up new possibilities for this target group and makes it possible for VI children to take part in lifelong learning. We have been partners of institutions in France, Romania, Italy and Germany.
Partnership in planning the linguistic and didactic setup and during implementation of the WoCoCom project "English for Works Councillors" from 1997 to 1999 with participation of institutions in the UK, Germany, Austria, and Denmark. This project received the European Language Seal award for innovative initiatives in the field of language learning and teaching.


Zone is raw control over a new sound, created in Cloud Control's own time, space and leisure. Coming after the loss of bassist Jeremy Kelshaw, the album — 3 years in the making, as crafted by Alister Wright, Heidi and Ulrich Lenffer — provides audiences with an undeniable masterpiece that explores a complex and comprehensive new sound.
Their locations became paramount to the construction and creation of their songs. Writing in over five locations, the band's production was undeniably chaotic. Through break-ins and storms, laying by in their old school headmaster's house and even in a fan's garage, the album was slowly and gradually pieced together. 'Zone (This Is How It Feels)' became the mantra for the band — a culmination of the hardships that they faced; a track produced solely on the synergy of the band and an all encompassing hit to tie the diverse album together.
The new sound that the now-trio have produced has become grittier; a different sound defining their new combination of musicians. It's raw, and it's open. It's relaxed, but it's rough — enough to hook listeners on such an emotional sound that reflects just how unified the new Cloud Control worked to be.
It elucidates what Cloud Control can do, in all of their creativity and musicality, in their desire to say what they want to say, to sound how they want to sound. They are newer, and they are different — but above all? They are still Cloud Control.

Kašeing In: Czech Winger Hitting His Stride With The Leafs
Atlantic Division Eastern Conference NHL Toronto Maple Leafs
Mark Blinch/NHL via Getty Images
With a first-period assist in last night's game, making six points in his previous eight games, it's safe to say Ondřej Kaše has kicked his slow start and is heating up. Taking time to get into gear had to be expected for the oft-injured Czech, who played just three games last year and has missed significant time due to concussions in each of the last four years. But just as the slow start was to be expected, so was him rounding into form. Before the injuries, Kaše was showing all the signs of becoming a first-line complementary winger. In his sophomore season with the Ducks at age 22, he produced 20 goals and 38 points in just 66 games and drove play at an above-average rate. Now healthy and thriving with the Leafs, he seems to have rediscovered that form and more. He was known more for his offense than anything. He has been part of one of the best shutdown lines in the NHL through a quarter of the season. Among lines with at least 125 minutes played together this year, the Engvall-Kampf- Kaše line has given up just 4.7 xGA, good for 4th in the league.
Looking at his skill set, it's no surprise that he has rediscovered his offensive flair and added a defensive element. The winger's game can best be described as 'balls to the wall,' total effort at both ends of the ice, no matter if his team is down a goal or up by eight. He's a relatively high IQ player, often in the correct position in his own end with good puck support habits. That and his above-average skating allow him to be effective in transition, filling lanes, and beating opponents up ice. In the OZ, he excels at getting lost in coverage and finding soft ice in the slot and around the net where he can employ his most effective skill; his shot. Kaše has a really good wrist shot, and his one-timer isn't half bad either. He has the ability to one-time pucks coming from both his strong side and his off-hand, allowing him to score in various ways. His goals in Philly and New York illustrate this ability perfectly:

Should he keep up this stretch of solid play and stay healthy, Kaše could be an x-factor for a Toronto team that has been searching for more depth scoring for a couple of years now. Either way, the energy he plays with will be a shot in the arm night in and night out.

THERE'S THE BEEF
by Billy Manes
In my white-knuckled world of emotional roller coasters and intentional nonprocreativity, there are certain biological anomalies that necessarily whiz right by unnoticed. It's not because they're not there; no, it's just that I've programmed my squinting reflex so efficiently as to diminish them into blurred comets resembling a hunk of roast beef with an eyelash in it. See, I can't even talk about it. My fingernails are threatening to throw up onto the keyboard at the mere mention of it. I … I … must get it out of my mind!
Conveniently, there are shiny gay bars like Lava, and immaculately conceived guy friends like Roy and Keith, available to distract me from that female personal space from which we all (except those pesky Caesareans) first poked our heads. Typically, bar moments like this involve very little thinking at all – just silent stares and over-it eye-rolls set to the beat of Eurodisco, cliquish clusters of similar body types assuming the proper position to effectively water their holes. Ah, life.
But this isn't a typical bar moment. There's a backpack on the bar: a sure sign of pollution. And in front of that backpack is a mouthy, lonely lesbian, the kind who might feel the need to carry a backpack into a bar. Naturally, all biorhythms are knocked out of whack and myself and my cliquish cluster are simply not having it. Shots are in order. It's going to be a bumpy ride.
"Ahhhhh," nellies my friend Keith on his bathroom dismount. "What's that?!"
"Is it a rat?" cringes Roy.
"No, it's just a chunky lesbian," I grimace to myself.
I'm wrong. Climbing out of the top of the backpack is a little black patch of fur, which of course throws me back to the pubic thoughts I am trying to avoid. In fact, it's an itsy-bitsy kitten, three weeks old and therefore devoid of inoculation.
"Say it," says Keith. "It's a pussy."
Sheepishly, the lesbian grabs toward the center of the commotion, pulling out said feline and holding it up in the air with the kind of pride reserved for handy ladies with cats. Despite its apparent cuteness, the bartenders are glaring from the corner, jaws dropped in polite disgust. As if on cue, the pussy starts to pee, spilling its urine all over the bar, the stool and the lesbian, who takes to wiping the three-inch furball with the always-available tissue.
The unsanitary situation eventually settles as Keith takes to holding the cat on his neck until we bitchily warn him of potential health hazards from scratches. And my nerves are brought back to a gay-bar calm when Keith tells me, "You look better than ever. I mean I was looking at old pictures and most of my old friends either got fat or died." Chipper lot we are.
But all is not so well. To our right a lone gay straggler is flipping through bar mags and telling the cute bartender, without any obvious flirtation, that what he has been up to is "not getting laid, that's for sure." And to the left, the lesbian has taken to a loud conversation about the pulled-hair pain of long-term relationships with another lone gay man who seems happy to participate. What is going on here? There is no talking in gay bars.
Meanwhile, the patch of fur still haunts me, all clawing and crowing from beneath its urethane weave. I know. It sounds bad. Admittedly, my only real experience – beyond that of stolen Playboy magazines and accidental porn walk-ins – is one of an unfortunate menstruation situation in my freshman year of college. Four hours of flaccid cajoling, an eventual fit of strained sexual giggles and a ruined mattress followed. Based on such vivid evidence, I gave up roast beef forever. And I don't like cats much either.
But I like shots, so Roy buys me one for my nerves before we hop along to our next destination, the Bob Carr Performing Arts Centre, for the opening (ahem) of Morgan Fairchild in the traveling Broadway version of The Graduate.
Both of us express some reservations about the potential for a Fairchild ham-shot in the proceedings, but write it off because this is Orlando (not New York) and this is perfect/pretty Morgan (not Kathleen Turner), so the nethers will surely remain tethered. To be safe, we trade seats with someone on the aisle, just in case the cat does indeed come out of the bag. Ew.
"The doors will be locked for the first 20 minutes," an usher warns us, probably in light of our boyish fidgeting in unison.
Fifteen minutes of broad-gay style overacting by the male lead ("ARE YOU TRYING TO SEDUCE ME, MRS. ROBINSON!") reminds us that what made the original film so good is what wasn't said and who wasn't saying it. We can chalk this up to standard theater practice, though. But what follows cannot be forgiven. Even though Morgan's take on a drunken housewife is a touch drunker – and therefore more fabulous – than I expected, I get the sense the Fairchild is not playing fairly. Like something … is … about … to …
Thirty long seconds in the company of her landing strip and we hear the doors unlock, the very crack of their opening sucking us out to safety.
"Omigod. I'm traumatized," cowers Roy.
"I'm going to be sick," I rejoin.
We're pathetic. In our attempt to enact a stealthy exit, we've revealed ourselves to be a rattling pile of ridiculousness. Which doesn't work in my favor, for once.
"You're not leaving, are you, Billy?" Broadway Series head Kirk Wingerson glares down his perfect face at me – that same perfect face that gave me two free tickets just hours earlier. "You always leave. You left Copperfield."
Did not. He just made me disappear.
"Uh, no?" I lie very badly. "I'm just, uh, traumatized by the flesh of Morgan. I'll be OK."
He knows better, walking swiftly away in a palpable huff. I'll never be OK.

Students travel to Hawaii
Hajera Naveed, Everett Eck, Section Editor, and Hannah Anderson, Editor-in-Chief|November 30, 2017
Courtesy of James Ludois
In 2016, teachers and students traveled to Grand Teton National Park in Wyoming for a camping and hiking adventure.
From Tuesday, June 12 to Tuesday, June 19, teachers plan to take students to Hawaii (the main island) for their 10th annual summer trip to a national state park. Only 25 students can go on this trip, and they will be selected anonymously after completing an application process.
Mr. Ludois, earth science teacher, will be leading the trip with chaperones Mr. Canavan, Mr. Scheldrup, Mr. Jazak, Ms. Fernandez, Mrs. Gunderson and Ms. Brodell. On previous trips, the teachers have gone to places like Yellowstone National Park and Grand Canyon National Park, making this the farthest place they have traveled so far.
Because of the location, this year's trip is a popular one, and many students have shown interest. Since the trip was approved, 170 students have signed up for the Remind (to receive text alerts for the trip) and 35 students attended the parent meeting on Monday, Nov 27. Because the trip has a limit on the people that can attend, the teachers who are part of the trip will have to choose applicants based on their responses to questions they have asked on the application. According to Mr. Canavan, students who respond with enthusiasm and effort are more likely to be chosen.
Courtesy of National Park Service
Hawai'i Volcanoes National Park has special coastal lava viewing areas for visitors to explore.
The trip was the idea of Mr. Canavan and Mr. McCloud, who wanted to introduce students to the science of the real world. As earth science teachers, they had similar trips in college and thought those experiences were beneficial to the process of learning science and gaining a new appreciation for it.
"This is really an eye-opening science experience. When you get outside and see [the science you learn in school] happening, it changes your perspective," Mr. Canavan said. "It can open kids' eyes to that and shows them that you can observe things you learn in school outside of the classroom."
The students who are going on the trip are to pay $2065, most of which is to cover the airfare for the flight to Hawaii and back. The group will be staying at an old military base for free that is open only to veterans and school groups. Also, most of the activities that are planned will be free since school groups can enter the Hawai'i Volcanoes National Park for free and most of the time will be spent hiking. The rest of the money will be going towards transportation and food on the islands.
"I thought this trip to Hawaii would be really fun. I've never been to Hawaii before and going there with my friends would be exciting," said Sabrina Leon, junior. "It's also relatively cheap for going to the island since usually hotel fares there are pretty high."
Mr. Ludois has planned many activities in Hawaii for students to experience the nature of the island. The group has planned to hike to beaches such as the Green Sands Beach and the Black Sands beach, stargaze at night time, and hike in rainforests to see waterfalls.
"[Being the leader] involves planning the itinerary, meeting with the other teachers, getting it approved by the school board and other administrators, and doing other paperwork," Mr. Ludois said. "This is my first time in this leadership role for the trip, usually it's Mr. Canavan or Mr. McCloud."
The applications are due on Monday, Dec. 4 and can be filled out on this google form.

The US Securities and Exchange Commission has alleged that Sohrab "Sam" Sharma and Robert Farkas, who co-founded "financial services startup" Centra Tech, made "ill-gotten" gains of $32m from thousands of investors through their initial coin offering in September last year.
However, the SEC said that the claims the pair made in their advertising push – in which boxer Floyd Mayweather endorsed the product on Instagram and Twitter – were "simply false".
The duo were yesterday charged with orchestrating a fraudulent ICO, in breach of anti-fraud and registration provisions of federal securities laws.
"We allege that Centra sold investors on the promise of new digital technologies by using a sophisticated marketing campaign to spin a web of lies about their supposed partnerships with legitimate businesses," said Stephanie Avakian, co-director of the SEC's division of enforcement.
Such claims include Sharma and Farkas's assertion that funds from the CTR token they were selling would be used to build a suite of financial products.
The pair said that users would be able to instantly convert cryptocurrencies into US dollars or other legal tender through a debit card backed by Visa and MasterCard.
"In reality, the SEC alleges, Centra had no relationships with Visa or MasterCard," the US body said in a statement.
The SEC also claimed the pair "created fictional executives with impressive biographies, posted false or misleading marketing materials to Centra's website, and paid celebrities to tout the ICO on social media".
The charges come amid growing concerns about fraudulent initial coin offerings and follows repeat advice from the SEC that investors should not trust celeb endorsements, pointing out that they may be part of a paid promotion.

Distance from Earth
Quick Answer: How Far Is The Closest Galaxy To The Earth?
by Steven Dawson
Our galaxy, the Canis Major Dwarf Galaxy, is 236,000,000,000,000,000 km (25,000 light years) from the Sun, making it the nearest known galaxy to us.

3 How long would it take to get to Andromeda?
4 What is the largest galaxy in the universe?
5 How far is the nearest black hole?

9 Are any galaxies visible from Earth?
10 Will humans ever leave the Milky Way?
11 Is time Travelling possible?
12 How long would it take to get to the moon?
What are the 10 closest galaxies to Earth?
The galaxies that are closest to us (ranked)
In the constellation of Aquarius, the distance between Andromeda III and LGS 3 is 2,363,500 light years
in the constellation of Triangulum, the distance between LGS 3 and Andromeda III is 2,477,500 light years
in the constellation of Tucana, the distance between Andromeda III and LGS 3 is 2,836,000 light years. In the constellation of Tucana, the distance between Andromeda III and LGS 3 is 2,494,000 light years.
How far is the next closest galaxy from the Milky Way?
Even though it is gravitationally tied to the Milky Way, the Andromeda Galaxy (M31) is not the closest galaxy to us by a long shot – it is 2 million light years distant. The Andromeda Galaxy (M31) is the closest spiral galaxy to us. Our galaxy is now being approached by Andromeda, which is traveling at a pace of around 110 kilometers per second.

How long would it take to get to Andromeda?
How long would it take to go to the Andromeda Galaxy from where we are? It's a waste of time! However, despite the fact that it is one of the nearest galaxies to our own, the Andromeda Galaxy is 2.5 million light years away, which means it would take 2.5 million years to reach there if we could move at the speed of light (which is a significant 'if' in this case).
What is the largest galaxy in the universe?
The largest known galaxy is IC 1101, which is 50 times the size of the Milky Way and around 2,000 times more massive than the Milky Way. It has a diameter of around 5.5 million light-years. Nebulas, which are immense clouds of gas, may grow to be enormous in size as well.
How far is the nearest black hole?
A black hole with three times the mass of the sun has been discovered by astronomers, making it one of the tiniest black holes discovered to date. It also happens to be the nearest known black hole, located only 1,500 light-years away from the planet Earth.
Where is Earth in the Milky Way?
Earth sits within one of the spiral arms of the Milky Way galaxy (known as the Orion Arm), which is approximately two-thirds of the way out from the galaxy's central black hole (named the Galactic Center). In this location, we are a part of the Solar System, which is made up of eight planets plus an unknown number of comets, asteroids, and dwarf planets that circle the Sun.
You might be interested: Question: How Far Mars From Earth?
Can we travel to another galaxy?
The technology necessary to travel across galaxies is well beyond the capability of humanity at this time, and it is solely the topic of conjecture, supposition, and science fiction at this point in history. However, from a theoretical standpoint, there is nothing that indicates that interplanetary travel is inherently impossible.
What universe is next to Earth?
The technology necessary to travel across galaxies is well beyond the capability of humanity at this time, and it is solely the topic of conjecture, supposition, and science fiction at this point in time. However, from a theoretical standpoint, there is nothing to clearly demonstrate that intergalactic travel is not feasible.
Are any galaxies visible from Earth?
The only galaxies that humans can see with the naked eye are two in number. We have our own Milky Way Galaxy as the first of them. The second is Andromeda, our nearest neighbor, which occupies a region of the sky many times larger than the moon but is difficult to distinguish from the rest of our galaxy's stars because it is so far away.
Will humans ever leave the Milky Way?
We would have to travel around 500 light-years vertically, or approximately 25,000 light-years away from the galactic center, in order to depart our Galaxy. The 'halo' of diffuse gas, ancient stars, and globular clusters that surrounds the Milky Way's stellar disk would need us to travel a great distance in order to escape it.
Is time Travelling possible?
To summarize: Yes, time travel is a genuine possibility. However, it is not quite the same as you may have seen in the movies. While under specific situations, it is possible to perceive time advancing at a rate other than one second every second, or even faster.

How long would it take to get to the moon?
It takes around 3 days for a spacecraft to arrive at the Moon's surface. During that period, a spaceship will have traveled at least 240,000 miles (386,400 kilometers), which is the distance between the Earth and the Moon, according to NASA. The particular distance varies depending on the path that is taken to get there.

Q: Как использовать Lumen framework без роутера? собираюсь писать плагин для Wordpress хочу для своей работы использовать фреймворк Lumen, но как правильно его использовать в обход классического использования роутера и роутов в файлике route.php ? Смысл в  том что в Wordpress все ajax запросы поступают на один роут wp-admin.php и там уже в зависимости от параметров обрабатываются данные в колбеках. Теперь вот как на базе вп использовать люмен, чтобы не отвалились мидлверы и контроллеры?

A: Итак проблемку решил, кому интересно объясню.
Для начала определимся с точкой входа аякс запросов
add_action('wp_ajax_test', 'my_action_callback');
add_action('wp_ajax_nopriv_test', 'my_action_callback');

function my_action_callback() {
    $app = require __DIR__.'/core/bootstrap/app.php';
    $app->run();
    wp_die();
}

В колбеке запускаем приложение.
Далее в методе dispath файла /vendor/laravel/lumen-framework/src/Concerns/RoutesRequests.php
для переменной $pathInfo нужно указать наш uri
Конечно ядро править такое себе занятие, но я не стал заморачиваться, да и это не  стандартное решение как бы, просто нужно избежать обновлений этого файла в будущем.
Чтобы использовать Eloquent ORM нужно в файлике bootstrap/app.php расскоментить две строчки
 $app->withFacades();
 $app->withEloquent();

И теперь например, чтобы обратиться к таблице вп пользователей нужно в моделе User.php добавить строчку     protected $table = 'wp_users'; где wp_users название таблицы в бд (стоит учесть динамочность префикса). После этого в контроллере можем юзать наш орм User::where('ID', 1)->first();

Recording of ASERL webinar of next-generation library discovery tools. Second in the series -- VuFind. Speakers are Clint Bellanger & Marliese Thomas (Auburn University) and Kevin Gilbertson & Jean-Paul Bessou (Wake Forest University). Original webinar date = March 28, 2011.


I promise I'm not going to say "just when you thought it was safe to go back into the water".
Okay, so it really was not safe to go back in the water back in 1978 because Universal Studios cashed in on the cash cow that was Jaws; the original summer blockbuster. As sequels usually go, they can't hold a candle to the original but with Jaws 2, I would say they made a damn good attempt. Sure, it a silly premiss that a monster shark came to seek vengeance on a small beach community only a few years after the first monster shark had its head blown off but hey, life is weird like that. Just ask New Jersey.
So yeah, I am yapping about Jaws 2 but more importantly I want to climb the rafters with a bullhorn and call to prayer that the fine people of Narragansett beer have released a retro-throwback LIMITED EDITION lager that was featured in the first Jaws film. The can is in its original colors from 1975 and was actually crushed by Robert Shaw who played Captain Quint. I have drunk many cans of bud lights in the Army and college just for the purpose of reenacting that famous scene between him and Richard Dreyfus.
Also, I wanted to take this quick minute to brag about the time I met Jeffery Kramer who played Deputy Hendrix, Martin Brody's second in command. Such a nice guy and had a blast asking him all the lame-o questions a geek like me could ask. He signed a shirt (claiming that to be his first) but he also signed a couple of autographs to include a very special one. The autopsy scene in Halloween 2 but accidentally signed is "Deputy Hendrix", his Jaws character.
Doh! I doubt it increases the value in real life but for the dumb collection in my office, it's priceless.
So, please watch and sorry in advance about the crazy noises I make after eating this insanely hot, shark themed, hot sauce. It is a doozy. Honest, it will light your face.
FLTO: Toby and the Great Battle of the Burgers!
Jaw is one of those franchises I have never had an interest in. I always love it when a company makes a product referencing a classic movie though.


\MONROVIA, LIBERIA (ASSOCIATED PRESS) -- Liberian officials fear Ebola could soon spread through the capital's largest slum after residents raided a quarantine center for suspected patients and took items including bloody sheets and mattresses.
The incident creates a new challenge for Liberian health officials who already were struggling to contain the outbreak.
Liberian police restored order to the West Point neighborhood Sunday. Sitting on land between the Montserrado River and the Atlantic Ocean, West Point is home to at least 50,000 people, according to a 2012 survey.
Distrust of government runs high in West Point, with rumors regularly circulating that the government plans to clear the slum out entirely.
Though there had been talk of putting West Point under quarantine should Ebola break out there, assistant health minister Nyenswah said Sunday no such step has been taken. "West Point is not yet quarantined as being reported," he said.
Ebola has killed 1,145 people in West Africa, including 413 in Liberia, according to the World Health Organization.
Other countries across Africa are grappling to prevent Ebola's spread with travel restrictions, suspensions of airline flights, public health messages and quarantines.
Nigeria appears to be making progress in containing the disease. The country has 12 confirmed cases of Ebola, all of which stem from direct contact with the Liberian-American man who flew to Nigeria late last month while ill. He infected several health workers before dying.
Since then three others have died in Nigeria from Ebola, according to figures released over the weekend.
One Nigerian doctor has survived the disease and was sent home Saturday night and five others confirmed with Ebola have almost fully recovered, said the Health Minister Onyebuchi Chukwu in a statement Saturday night.
The most important part of containing the disease is to track all those who had contact with Ebola patients and to closely monitor them in order to quarantine if they show any symptoms. Nigeria had 242 people under surveillance but now 61 have been cleared and released, after completing the 21-day period without showing any signs of Ebola, said the health ministry.
In East Africa, Kenya will bar passengers traveling from the three West African countries badly hit by the Ebola outbreak. The suspension is effective midnight Tuesday for all ports of entry for people traveling from or through Sierra Leone, Guinea and Liberia, said Kenya's Health Ministry. Nigeria was not included in the ban, which also allows entry to health professionals and Kenyans returning from those countries.
Following the government's announcement Saturday, Kenya Airways said it would suspend flights to Liberia and Sierra Leone. Kenya Airways, a major transport provider in Africa flies more than 70 flights a week to West Africa.
Several airlines have already suspended flights to Sierra Leone, Guinea and Liberia, including British Airways, Emirates Airlines, Arik Air and ASKY Airlines.
Officials in Cameroon, which borders Nigeria, announced Friday it would suspend all flights from all four Ebola-affected countries. Korean Air announced on Thursday it would temporarily halt its service to Kenya despite the fact there are no cases of Ebola in the country.
AP writers Corinne Chin in Nairobi, Kenya, and Maram Mazen in Lagos, Nigeria, contributed to this piece.


Domtar Regional Public Affairs Manager, Bonny Skene, says the company has developed a plan to simplify and modernize operations at the Espanola pulp and paper mill, which will prepare the facility for capital projects over the next three years.
She says they are consolidating the fiber production line from two to one bleach plant, and reducing batch digesters from five to three to improve the mill's sustainability over the long-term.
That work will be carried out during the upcoming Spring shutdown.
Skene adds both specialty paper machines will continue to operate and around 70 jobs will be affected through attrition and retirement.
The Espanola mill manufactures pulp and specialty papers.


WASHINGTON— Attorneys general from seven states announced today they are challenging the decision by Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Scott Pruitt to approve ongoing use of chlorpyrifos, a dangerous pesticide known to cause brain damage in children.
In November 2016 the EPA announced a plan to ban use of the pesticide on food crops. But shortly after taking over as the agency's administrator earlier this year, Scott Pruitt announced, with no explanation, a reversal of this recommendation and allowed the continued use of the pesticide.
The seven attorneys general charge that the EPA wrongly approved the continued use of this dangerous pesticide on fruits and vegetables without first assessing its safety as required under the U.S. Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act. Today's challenge was filed by attorneys general from New York, California, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Washington and Vermont. Click here to read the filing.
In the weeks following Pruitt's reversal, Dow Chemical requested that the EPA abandon its legally mandated requirements to assess the impacts of chlorpyrifos on endangered species and indefinitely delay implementing common sense measures to protect them.
Dow's back-channel campaign to get the agency to abandon a nearly four-year effort to protect endangered species from these pesticides is revealed in letters in which Dow urges the Trump administration and Pruitt to withdraw "biological evaluations" that were finalized in January detailing how three highly toxic organophosphate insecticides — chlorpyrifos, malathion and diazinon — harm nearly all 1,800 threatened and endangered animals and plants.
Over the past six years, Dow has donated $11 million to congressional campaigns and political action committees and spent an additional $75 million lobbying Congress. In Dow was one of three companies that donated $1 million to the Trump inauguration.
Around 5 million pounds of chlorpyrifos are used in the United States every year on crops like corn, peanuts, plums and wheat. A recent study at the University of California at Berkeley found that 87 percent of umbilical-cord blood samples tested had detectable levels of chlorpyrifos.
The Center for Biological Diversity is a national, nonprofit conservation organization with more than 1.3 million members and supporters dedicated to the protection of endangered species and wild places.

The Department of Revenue is a department of the South Carolina state government responsible for the administration of 32 different state taxes in South Carolina.

The Department is responsible for licensing and taxing all manufacturers, wholesalers and retailers of alcoholic liquors. The Department is also responsible for enforcing the Bingo Act of 1996 which affects manufacturers, distributors, organizations and promoters. Coin-operated device tax is collected from all manufactures, distributors or owners of such devices or machines. Owners of such machines must also be licensed.

Tax records theft
On August 13, 2012, an unidentified remote attacker compromised systems at the Department of Revenue. The attacker initially penetrated the system using phishing emails to employees. The attacker then installed a backdoor. Over the next two months, the attacker remotely compiled and downloaded data such as employee password hashes and the tax records dating from 1998 to 2011. On October 10, the United States Secret Service notified the SC Department of Revenue of a possible breach. The attacker ceased activities on October 17, having compromised a total of 44 systems.

As of early 2013, this is the largest ever cyberattack on a US state government, with 3.8 million unencrypted Social Security numbers (equivalent to over 78% of South Carolina's population) stolen along with private and business-related financial information. South Carolina contracted with private credit-reporting agency Experian to provide South Carolina residents and other affected individuals with a year of free credit monitoring and identity theft protection.

China Can't Get Enough of Black Market Tiger Bone Wine
Chinese tiger bone wine might not cure eczema, but it could very well impress friends at a fancy dinner party.
by Lauren Rothman
January 4, 2015, 4:00pm

Sometimes, an expertly fermented grape or grain just isn't enough to pique the interest of drinkers. All around the world, there's a rich tradition of infusing wine and liquor with animals that are supposed to confer various health benefits upon the the imbiber: think of the worm at the bottom of a bottle of Mexican tequila, the whole snakes coiled at the bottom of some containers of Asian rice wine, and—less commonly seen—the bones of wild tigers, which are steeped in rice wine and aged for up to eight years (the wine's value increasing over time).
In spite of global efforts to tamp down on the illegal poaching of endangered wild tigers for use in these bone wines, Chinese thirst for the beverage continues apace and, in fact, has recently been revived by a reinvigorated tiger farming industry that has helped remove some of the stigma of using the animals' pelts and bones.
The use of tiger parts in Chinese food and drink has been a part of the culture for over a thousand years. To ingest an animal of such strength (and now, rarity) is believed to confer medicinal properties upon the eater. Tiger parts such as eyes, whiskers, and teeth are used in medical compounds to treat ailments ranging from insomnia to meningitis, malaria to bad skin. The calcium and protein found in tiger bones are said to have anti-inflammatory properties and to promote healing. Makers of tiger bone wine tout its pain-relieving properties, and its high alcohol content probably doesn't hurt, either.
In 1950, Mao Zedong declared wild tigers to be one of the four pests threatening Chinese progress, and within years, just around 1,000 remained. Those that did were subject to widespread hunting to support the demand for parts for medicine and for the animals' decorative pelts. In 1993, when numbers had dropped precipitously low—globally, fewer than 4,000 wild tigers are believed to exist today, and in China that number stands at 45—China banned the domestic trade of animal parts, but poaching has continued to be a major problem for the animals.
In 2005, the Chinese government authorized certain businesses to use captive-bred tiger bone for medicine, and since then, the bare-bones, often-depressing "farms" have proliferated across the country. China has about 200 tiger farms, housing between five and six thousand animals. And although the country's tiger-farming lobby argues that the availability of farmed tigers for use in traditional medicine—and wine—will alleviate pressure on China's wild tiger population, the opposite has proven to be true. Because it is cheaper to kill wild tigers and smuggle their bodies over borders than it is to raise and kill domestic tigers, poachers in nearby Asian nations such as India are killing off their own tigers and smuggling them into China, where the brains, bile, fat, and even genitals make their way into various powders and tonics for sale in special dispensaries. The very rarity of wild tigers holds a certain cachet with some high-rolling Chinese consumers who would rather pay the often astronomical prices for wild tiger parts, believing them to be more "pure" and desirable than their farmed counterparts.
Because tiger bone wine is a black market product, it's hard to get any precise numbers on how many Chinese distilleries produce it or how many consumers drink it. In 1986, China's People's Daily newspaper reported that 116 factories were producing the wine, but that figure is likely much larger now. What is clear is that whatever medicinal benefits the wine is purported to have, it's much more desirable as a luxury or status product. Tiger bone wines aged for three years sell for around the equivalent of $80 USD; a six-year bottle will set you back $155; and an eight-year wine costs around $290. And although Chinese tiger bone wine might not cure eczema, it could very well impress friends at a fancy dinner party—regardless of its true price to the animal world.
