1. Could you start by telling us a bit about yourself and your blog. I'm Emma, the Em behind Country Girl Em. I work full time as a social worker and blog in my spare time. My blog shares my interests and passions (outside of work) which is mainly beauty based, but I also blog about baking, food and my life. 2. How long have you been blogging for and what inspired you to start it? I've only been blogging just over 3 months now, so I am still a relative newbie to the wonderful world of blogging! I have been an avid reader of other blogs and watcher of YouTubers for a while and they inspired me to start my blog alongside my love of writing and wanting to have another interest outside of work. 3. What's the best thing about having your blog channel? Connecting with other people who have similar interests and being part of an incredibly community of bloggers who are so supportive and welcoming, alongside finding out new ideas and new products to try! 4. What's you're top tips for budding bloggers? Go for it! 5. What does a normal day look like for you? I work long hours Monday-Friday and have a stressful and demanding job. When I get home I check my blog and catch up on other blogs. Weekends tend to be more relaxed and that's when I plan, prepare and write my blog posts. 6. Who're your biggest style influences? This is a difficult question as I am definitely not a fashionista. I am vertically challenged and on the curvy side of curvy so I do struggle to find fashionable flattering clothes. However I would say my biggest style influence is Kate Moss because I have followed her career since I was very young – I was fascinated by her and absolutely love her relaxed style. 7. Who are your favourite bloggers/vloggers? Well of course Emily Hearts! I also love Really Ree (especially her periscope and new in beauty YouTube videos), Fleur De Force, I Covet Thee, Essie Button, and of course Norfolk's own Pixiwoo and Tanya Burr! 8. What are your three favourite beauty products right now? Liz Earle Cleanse & Polish, Liz Earle Superskin Concentrate, The Body Shop Camomile Cleansing Oil. 9.What lip product have you got in your hand bag right now? Several… L'Oréal Infallible Gloss in 'I Got The Power', Bourjois Aqua Lacque in a peachy coral colour, Revlon Balm Stain in 'Honey' and an EOS lip balm in 'blueberry'. 10.What are your three fashion essentials? I absolutely love handbags so a good bag is a definite essential. I also love nail polish and have quite an extensive collection and I do feel that a pop of colour on your nails can really sharpen a look! 11.What music are you listening to right now? At the moment I have been loving the new Kelly Clarkson album, Taylor Swift and Ed Sheeran.


Third outlet in Hyderabad must be crazy and special for those who eat out a lot. Happened to visit this place very recently with few fellow foodie friends and I was awed by the menu as its tasty but healthy and specially for me as I really like Mexican cuisine. It's so colorful, packed with veggies, proteins (chicken), corn, tomato and lot more in plate.
Started with make your own salad which is like Mini-Bowl of all nutrients anyone require in their daily diet- Carbs, proteins, vitamins, anti-oxidant, fibers etc. I chose lettuce, kidney beans(rajma), mushrooms, olives, grilled chicken, hot chicken, cottage cheese (paneer), walnuts, cheddar cheese and sour cream all in one bowl was not less than one spoon made this bowl a wholesome meal for me with some balsamic reduction & vinaigrette just for that sour dash on top it was one thing I just loved to eat.
Their menu offer lot of Mexican, Tex-mex and few Hyderabadi Indian dishes too with a twist which you will love to indulge.
Well wraps, quesadilla, tortilla , edibowl, biryanis, kebabs all were very good as the usage of fresh vegetables, soft paneer, nice chunks of chicken were served. Tomatoes, olives and jalapenos are good source vitamins, folate, Vitamin C and antioxidant properties respectively so binging over here is great deal.
I have tried their chicken & lamb pizza too and the best thing I like about it that they make their own fresh dough not like other places readymade one. Which makes the crust soft and crusty at the same time, tomato sauce is freshly made and not the bottled sauce. Toppings were enough as per the crust and thickness, lamb was well cooked so was that chicken and that cheese was just perfect not less nor overly cheesy.
Tortilla wrap and quesadilla both were well made with beautiful brown outer crust and that filling with bell peppers, chicken chunks, bit of cheese and tomato salsa. It's made by corn sheets so again its very healthy and one portion is great of one person to make them full.
Kidney beans and rice- Red and black kidney beans is staple in Mexican cuisine, you can add on that in your bowl as per your taste same goes with the option of white rice, brown rice and the one which is very rare in Hyderabad now is black rice a complete package of Vitamin E and antioxidant. And we all know kidney beans benefits its laden with proteins.
Kebabs and biryanis are like soul in Hyderabad so keeping that in menu is good catch for those who can't think any think except these two items. It's well made with less spices and less oil and same goes with biryani it tastes good with the spice aroma and those chunks of chicken in non-veg and paneer in veg were very tender, moist in taste. Portion wise it's good for two people, have it hot for better taste result.
After all those healthy meals one can binge on Walnut brownie with vanilla ice-cream which is an absolute sin anyone can do happily. They have other option in desserts too but I just loved this one also choco fudge was great option.
It's a great place to be on weekends or weekdays for grabbing a bite after work or for those healthy freaks after gym too you can have something which will go well with diet program.
Do try their fresh juices which consists-Anar, Berries, Litchi, Guava, Jamun and Grape other than that mango lassi was good option to refresh yourself. My favourite was grape with all that tangy and sweet taste it goes well with food too, but as I say over here something is there for everyone.
Why should anyone visit this place?


What if living a creative life did not necessitate a tortured anguished existence but rather was simply following curiosity into an abundance of ideas and energy swirling about you? What if those ideas were looking for someone, you, perhaps, to give them shape and form, to bring them into being? What if creativity meant elevating curiosity above fear?
"What if"–two of the most powerful words there are.
[Ruth Stone] told me that when she was a child growing up on a farm in rural Virginia, she would be out working in the fields when she would sometimes hear a poem coming toward her -– hear it rushing across the landscape at her, like a galloping horse. Whenever this happened, she knew exactly what she had to do next: she would "run like hell" toward the house, trying to stay ahead of the poem, hoping to get to a piece of paper and a pencil fast enough to catch it. That way, when the poem reached her and passed through her, she would be able to grab it and take dictation, letting the words pour forth onto the page. Sometimes, however, she was too slow, and she couldn't get to the paper and pencil in time. At those instances, she could feel the poem rushing right through her body and out the other side. It would be in her for a moment, seeking a response, and then it would be gone before she could grasp it –- galloping away across the earth, as she said, "searching for another poet." But sometimes (and this is the wildest part) she would nearly miss the poem, but not quite. She would just barely catch it, she explained, "by the tail." Like grabbing a tiger. Then she would almost physically pull the poem back into her with one hand, even as she was taking dictation with the other. In these instances, the poem would appear on the page from the last word to the first -– backward, but otherwise intact.
Even if we are not sensitive enough to hear poems galloping toward us, we may have experienced a moment of feeling like we were a part of something far bigger and more mysterious than ourselves. Of being in the flow where our sense of time stopped and we were caught up in the bliss of creating. Maybe while writing, drawing, dancing, gardening, cooking, running, skating or whatever it was that made time stop. We each step into this creative swirl differently, but what we encounter there is much the same: joy, transcendence, and mystery.


The Falcons didn't wait long to start feeding Tony Gonzalez in his final game, and they didn't wait to try to spoil the Panthers' party.
Gonzalez caught the first pass of the game, which started the Falcons on an 11-play, 80-yard scoring drive, giving them a 7-0 lead. Fullback Jason Snelling got the score, though all eyes have been on the retiring tight end early.
Gonzalez caught two passes for 28 yards on the drive, which marked the first time all year the Panthers have allowed a touchdown on an opening drive.
The Panthers can still clinch a bye in the playoffs with a win, but they haven't won in Atlanta since 2007.
Looks like Team B has showed up for the Panthers! Wonder where Cam Newton is? As appears Scam Newton showed up!


March was really busy for me. I organised a health and career talk for the girls of Community Grammar School, Mokola, Ibadan, Oyo State and that took a huge chunk of my time. I talk about how I overcome my fear and anxiety to organize the health and career talk here. I have received a lot of positive feedback from people via Facebook, Twitter and Instagram and I'm so overwhelmed with joy and thankful to all who sent me kind words of encouragement.
I reached 200 subscribers on YouTube in March. I'm so excited! I want to say 200 big thank yous and if you haven't subscribed, what are you waiting for? Go show ya girl some support, click here to do so.
Happy Hairversary to me!!! My natural hair is 1 this April. I'm so happy with my decision to go natural. My hair is so healthy and strong compared to when it was permed. This month, I'll share with you my hair care routine, products I use and my challenges with my hair and how I keep it soft and manageable. So there's going to be a lot of hair talk this month.
I sincerely can't wait for the Easter holiday. I feel like I'll sleep on Friday and wake up Monday evening, just kidding! I'll use the holiday to travel and get some blog work done so you can expect content on my YouTube channel and also on the blog.
What plans do you have for April? Care to share with me and other readers in the comments.

Der Gasspeicher Eschenfelden ist ein Untergrundspeicher bei Eschenfelden in der Gemeinde Hirschbach in Bayern. Der Speicher liegt in 600 Meter Tiefe und hat ein Volumen von 168 Millionen Kubikmeter, 72 Millionen Kubikmeter davon Arbeitsgas, 96 Millionen Kubikmeter Kissengas. Er ist stillgelegt und wird zurückgebaut. Am Bohrloch Esch 1 des Gasspeichers Eschenfelden kam es am 19. September 1970 zum größten Gasunglück in der Geschichte der Bundesrepublik Deutschland.

Lage
Die Betriebsgebäude des Gasspeichers Eschenfelden liegen östlich von Eschenfelden nördlich der Kreisstraße AS 6. Das Speicherareal mit einer Fläche von 3 Quadratkilometern erstreckt sich zwischen Fichtenhof und Pruppach. Die Mittel-Europäische Gasleitung (Megal) verläuft in nur 1,5 km Entfernung.

Geologie
Der Speicher liegt im Eschenfelder Gewölbe, einer von Südost nach Nordwest gerichteten längsovalen Flexur. Das Eschenfelder Gewölbe ist die Fortsetzung des Hahnbacher Sattels, wurde aber nur um etwa 120 m aufgewölbt, da die Hebungskräfte nach Nordwesten zu stark abnahmen. Das ist auch der Grund dafür, dass eine reine Flexur vorliegt und es nicht zum Zerreißen von Schichten und damit zur Bruchbildung kam, was eine Nutzung als Gasspeicher ausgeschlossen hätte. Hahnbacher Sattel und Eschenfelder Gewölbe sind durch die Oberreinbacher Querverbiegung, eine von Südwest nach Nordost streichende unterirdische Mulde, getrennt.

Geschichte

Bau und Inbetriebnahme
Der Aufbau des Speichers begann mit ersten Untersuchungsbohrungen an der Station Esch 1, die 1964 vom damals künftigen Betreiber, der Ruhrgas AG, beauftragt worden waren. Nach dem Ansetzen der zweiten Bohrung im Jahr 1967 (Esch 2) wurden in rascher Folge die Bohrungen Esch 2, Esch 3, Esch 4 und Esch B 2 abgeteuft. Im Laufe der Jahre wurden 13 weitere Bohrungen niedergebracht, davon elf als Injektions- und Entnahmesonden und zwei als randliche Beobachtungsbohrungen. Der Speicher wurde im Oktober 1967 in Betrieb genommen. Er diente ursprünglich zur Speicherung von Kokereigas. Ab 1971 wurde der Speicher auf Erdgas umgestellt.

Brand am 19. September 1970
Am 19. September 1970 kam es um kurz nach 11:30 Uhr am mit 170 Millionen Kubikmeter gefüllten Gasspeicher bei Wartungsarbeiten zum Gasaustritt über eine defekte Sonde mit einem Druck von 40 bar an der Bohrung Esch 1. Durch die Reibung an der Luft entzündete sich das austretende Gas. Pro Stunde verbrannten 10.000 Kubikmeter Gas in einer etwa 30 Meter hohen Flamme. Trotz Einsatz zahlreicher Feuerwehren aus der Region und der Flughafenfeuerwehren aus München, Nürnberg und Frankfurt konnte der Brand anfangs nicht eingedämmt werden. Das Hilfsangebot von Paul Neal Adair lehnte die Ruhrgas AG zunächst ab. Nachdem zahlreiche Versuche, den Brand zu löschen, gescheitert waren, nahm die Ruhrgas Adairs Angebot an. Adair traf am 23. September ein und drückte eine Lösung aus Schwerspat mit 60 Atmosphären Druck auf das Leck. Bereits der erste Versuch am 25. September um 9:40 Uhr glückte.

Der Brand war das größte Gasunglück in der Geschichte der Bundesrepublik Deutschland.

Stilllegung und Rückbau
Weil ein wirtschaftlicher Betrieb des Speichers nicht mehr möglich ist und er sich wegen seiner Größe für die Speicherung von Wasserstoff nicht eignet, ist der Gasspeicher gemäß Abschlussbetriebsplanantrag vom 11. Dezember 2020 an das Bergbauamt Nordbayern seit 1. April 2021 stillgelegt. Er soll bis spätestens 2027 rückgebaut werden. Wie das Gelände nach dem Rückbau genutzt werden kann, wird noch untersucht.

Eigentumsverhältnisse
Der Gasspeicher wurde von der Ruhrgas AG gebaut und betrieben. Die Ruhrgas AG ging in der E.ON Gas Storage GmbH auf, die wiederum an Uniper verkauft wurde. Heute gehört der Speicher zu zwei Drittel der Uniper Energy Storage GmbH, ein Drittel ist im Besitz der N-ERGIE Aktiengesellschaft.

Funktionsweise
Der Gasspeicher Eschenfelden ist ein Aquiferspeicher. Die etwa 600 Meter unter der Erdoberfläche liegende poröse Gesteinsschicht ist im Ausgangszustand mit Wasser gefüllt. Erst beim Einpressen von Speichergas wird das Wasser aus den Porenräumen verdrängt und so ein künstlicher Gasspeicher geschaffen. Da der höchstmögliche Speicherdruck des Speichers mit 46 bar geringer ist als der anstehende Leitungsdruck (maximal 67,5 bar), erfolgte die Einspeicherung unmittelbar aus dem Leitungssystem. Bei der Ausspeicherung sorgten zwei Gasturbinenverdichtereinheiten für die notwendige Erhöhung des Drucks auf das Niveau des Leitungssystems. Aus dem Speicher können maximal 60.000 Kubikmeter Erdgas pro Stunde entnommen werden.

The Hudson is arguably one of America's greatest secrets. At first glance, it's just another industrial river: tree-lined banks interspersed with farmers' fields, bridges, docks, factories, chemical plants and brickyards. But look a little deeper - there are sandbars, marshes, waterfalls, lakes, surging rapids and dense forests, with all the animals, birds and fishes that live on and in them: coyotes, bald eagles, black bears, 200 kg Atlantic sturgeon, beavers, deer and even flying squirrels. These are the Adirondacks. The Catskills. Thousands of acres of untamed wilderness that amaze us with each changing season. Native Americans called it Mahicantuck, «the river that flows two ways». A fitting name for a river that flows both north and south - a river of arrivals and departures, of giving and taking, death and regeneration.

HONG KONG — Two lawyers who said they represented the family of Prime Minister Wen Jiabao of China have issued a statement disputing aspects of a New York Times article about the family's wealth, a rare instance of a powerful Chinese political family responding directly to a foreign media report.
The statement, published in The South China Morning Post on Sunday, said, "The so-called 'hidden riches' of Wen Jiabao's family members in The New York Times's report" did not exist.
After criticizing several points in the article, the statement hinted at the possibility of future legal action. "We will continue to make clarifications regarding untrue reports by The New York Times, and reserve the right to hold it legally responsible," the statement said.
The statement reported in The Post, a Hong Kong newspaper, has not been obtained directly by The Times.
While the statement disputed that Mr. Wen's mother had held assets, it did not address the calculation in the article that the family had controlled assets worth at least $2.7 billion.
Eileen Murphy, a spokeswoman for The Times, expressed confidence in the article. "We are standing by our story, which we are incredibly proud of and which is an example of the quality investigative journalism The Times is known for," she wrote in an e-mail.
The lawyers' statement represents an unusual move for the family of a senior Chinese leader. When Bloomberg News published an article in late June describing real estate and other assets held by the family of Vice President Xi Jinping, his family did not respond publicly.
The statement published in The Post was attributed to Bai Tao, a partner in the Beijing office of the Jun He Law Firm, and Wang Weidong, the managing partner of the Beijing office of the Grandall Law Firm.
No one answered phone calls to both lawyers' offices on Sunday, nor did Mr. Wang respond immediately to an e-mail.
The statement denied an anecdote in The Times article that described how one investment in the name of Mr. Wen's mother, Yang Zhiyun, was worth $120 million five years ago. "The mother of Wen Jiabao, except receiving salary/pension according to the regulation, has never had any income or property," the statement said.
Corporate registration records reviewed by The Times showed that in 2007 the prime minister's 90-year-old mother held about $120 million worth of shares in Ping An, an insurance company, through investment vehicles. A signature bearing her name and her government-issued identity card were included in the registration record, which was obtained from government regulatory filings.
The Times article did not allege any illegal business activity, and it said that Mr. Wen did not appear to have accumulated assets. The article also said that there was no evidence that Mr. Wen personally intervened to help family members' investments. The article pointed out that as prime minister in a country where the state plays a large role in the economy, Mr. Wen oversaw many government officials whose decisions could play a large role in the fortunes of businesses and investors.
The Times posted the article in English on Friday, and in Chinese three hours later, after final edits in English were translated. The Chinese government quickly blocked access from mainland Chinese computers to the Chinese-language and English-language Web sites of The Times before the article was posted in Chinese. But many people in China appear to have used virtual private networks to view the article anyway.
The report on the finances of Mr. Wen's family has also received heavy coverage in the Hong Kong news media, which has extensive reach inside mainland China.

World Bank Cuts Thailand's Growth to 3.6% on Delayed Recovery in Tourism and Transport
In Economics, ThailandPosted 11/01/2023
The World Bank cuts projection of Thailand's economic growth in 2023 amid global risks of Russia's invasion of Ukraine, ongoing inflation and higher interest rates as the factor causes to weigh not only Thailand, but the global economy down.
Growth in Thailand is projected to accelerate to 3.6 percent in 2023, according to the latest projection from the World Bank in January 2023. This reflects the delayed recovery of contact-intensive sectors like tourism and transport.
A projection of 3.6 percent growth was lower than what the World Bank had projected in June last year for a 4.3 percent growth in 2023. Economic growth for the year after has also been cut by 0.2 percentage points to 3.7 percent.
Meanwhile, countries in the same region also see their growth being cut by the World Bank as well. For 2023, Vietnam's growth was reduced by 0.2 percentage points to 6.3 percent. 0.5 percentage points was cut from Malaysia's growth to 4.0 percent. Cambodia sees its growth being reduced by 0.6 percentage points to 5.2 percent.
Estimated growth in the region excluding China in 2022 was 0.8 percentage point above the June forecast. This reflects upgrades for Malaysia, the Philippines, Thailand, and Vietnam, most of which benefited from a surge in private consumption and strong growth of goods exports.
The World Bank noted that the recovery from the pandemic-induced recession has been uneven across the region. Output surpassed pre-pandemic levels last year in Cambodia, the Philippines, and Thailand; in contrast, it is expected to remain below such levels this year in many of the region's economies, including Myanmar and several Pacific Island economies.
The World Bank stated that the baseline projection is subject to multiple downside risks, including the possibility of renewed pandemic-related disruptions, more prolonged real estate sector stress in China, sharper tightening of global financial conditions, weaker global growth, and more frequent disruptive weather events linked to climate change. A prolonged war in Ukraine and intensifying geopolitical uncertainty could further reduce business and consumer confidence globally and lead to a sharper slowdown than projected in the region's export growth.
High global inflation has prompted rapid, synchronous monetary tightening. This has contributed to worsening financial conditions, particularly for less creditworthy emerging market and developing economies (EMDEs). Global growth in 2023 is expected to be the third weakest in nearly three decades, overshadowed only by global recessions. Most country forecasts have been downgraded. The recovery from the pandemic recession is far from complete, especially in EMDEs, and the per-capita income outlook is particularly subdued for poverty-stricken countries.

AS Chemi-Pharm and Innopolis Insenerid OÜ Entered into an Agreement for the Design of a Pharmaceutical Factory
An extension with cleanrooms will be added to the factory completed in Tänassilma Technology Park two years ago by Chemi-Pharm, a manufacturer of disinfectants and luxury cosmetics. Chemi-Pharm's goal in expanding its production, warehouse, and commercial premises is in the near future to enter the pharmaceutical industry.
The extension of the production building has three floors and, together with the existing building, forms a whole. The extension of production, commercial and warehouse premises cover 8500m². The new production building will also include production areas with a higher cleanliness level, i.e., cleanrooms, which will be used in biotechnology, medicine, and other areas sensitive to air pollution. The air enters the cleanroom through a filter that traps all the air pollution. The air in the room is constantly re-filtered to remove contaminants from the room.
The COVID-19 pandemic has led to an increased worldwide need for both disinfectants and medicines. After the outbreak of the corona crisis, Chemi-Pharm became the most important supplier of disinfectants and care products for hospitals, nursing homes, and many other health care institutions in Estonia.
"We have been able to operate in the current factory building, which was completed only in 2019, for barely two years, and unexpectedly even to us, the building has occurred to be too small for us due to high demand," says Kristo Timberg, CEO of Chemi-Pharm. "However, we are pleased that we had the opportunity to contribute and support hospitals, frontline staff, and society as a whole with disinfectants when they were most needed. But now we have to look further into the future again and increase our production capacity."
Kristo Timberg added that in the near future Chemi-Pharm in cooperation with Icosagen Group, OÜ Teadus ja Tegu, and Estonian University of Life Sciences, and the University of Tartu, will also launch a new nasal spray, "SARS-Cov-2 BioBlock," based on anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibodies. This provides additional protection against the coronavirus. "In the coming years, we plan to enter the field of pharmacy, for which we will establish a production unit based on cleanroom technology. The current crisis has shown that every country could have its own vaccine production capacity," he added.
Tarmo Kastemäe, CEO of Innopolis Insenerid OÜ, states: "Innopolis Insenerid OÜ is one of the largest design bureaus in Estonia with in-depth experience in the field of healthcare and pharmacy. Our cooperation with Chemi-Pharm combines the best knowledge of two strong Estonian companies in the field of medicine and pharmacy. This creates an opportunity for the development of the Estonian pharmaceutical industry in the midst of a pandemic. We are pleased to contribute to Chemi-Pharm's ambition to start manufacturing pharmaceuticals in Estonia and to increase the security of the Estonian people in the fight against the pandemic through the local pharmaceutical industry."
Founded in 1997, Public Limited Company Chemi-Pharm develops, manufactures, and markets disinfectants, personal care products, cleaning and special care products, and the D'DIFFERENCE series of luxury cosmetics. Chemi-Pharm has subsidiaries in Malaysia and Singapore, but production is concentrated in Estonia, and the company's head office is also located here.
Chemi-Pharm's product list includes over a hundred different disinfection, cleaning, and care products, which in turn are divided into six main product groups: detergents, hand and skin antiseptics, skincare products, products for washing and disinfecting surfaces, products for washing and disinfecting instruments and cosmetics products. Today, the company exports its products to 27 countries, and in addition to medical institutions, customers also include the food industry, cleaning companies, children's institutions, and schools.
Innopolis Insenerid
Innopolis Insenerid OÜ is a design bureau founded in 2007, which focuses on full-service building design solutions in Estonia and the Nordic countries. During its more than a dozen years of operation, the company has grown into one of the largest design bureaus in Estonia and a good partner in the construction of energy-efficient and sustainable buildings. Innopolis Insenerid OÜ has designed more than 140,000 m2 of healthcare and pharmaceutical buildings in the last ten years, which makes us one of the leading companies in the design of such buildings in the Nordic and Baltic countries.

Astronomers Identify Circular Orbits of 74 Earth-Sized Planets
TOPICS:Aarhus UniversityAstronomyAstrophysicsExoplanetKeplerMITPopular
By Jennifer Chu, Massachusetts Institute of Technology June 1, 2015
The system Kepler-444 formed when the Milky Way galaxy was a youthful two billion years old. The planets were detected from the dimming that occurs when they transit the disc of their parent star, as shown in this artist's conception.
New research from MIT and Aarhus University reveals that 74 exoplanets orbit their respective stars in circular patterns, much like the planets of our solar system.
Viewed from above, our solar system's planetary orbits around the sun resemble rings around a bulls-eye. Each planet, including Earth, keeps to a roughly circular path, always maintaining the same distance from the sun.
For decades, astronomers have wondered whether the solar system's circular orbits might be a rarity in our universe. Now a new analysis suggests that such orbital regularity is instead the norm, at least for systems with planets as small as Earth.
In a paper that will be published in the Astrophysical Journal, researchers from MIT and Aarhus University in Denmark report that 74 exoplanets, located hundreds of light-years away, orbit their respective stars in circular patterns, much like the planets of our solar system.
The old, Sun-like star, named Kepler-444, has five orbiting planets with sizes between those of Mercury and Venus. Kepler-444 formed 11.2 billion years ago, when the universe was less than 20% of its current age. This makes Kepler-444 the oldest known system of terrestrial-sized planets.
These 74 exoplanets, which orbit 28 stars, are about the size of Earth, and their circular trajectories stand in stark contrast to those of more massive exoplanets, some of which come extremely close to their stars before hurtling far out in highly eccentric, elongated orbits.
"Twenty years ago, we only knew about our solar system, and everything was circular and so everyone expected circular orbits everywhere," says Vincent Van Eylen, a visiting graduate student in MIT's Department of Physics. "Then we started finding giant exoplanets, and we found suddenly a whole range of eccentricities, so there was an open question about whether this would also hold for smaller planets. We find that for small planets, circular is probably the norm."
Ultimately, Van Eylen says that's good news in the search for life elsewhere. Among other requirements, for a planet to be habitable, it would have to be about the size of Earth — small and compact enough to be made of rock, not gas. If a small planet also maintained a circular orbit, it would be even more hospitable to life, as it would support a stable climate year-round. (In contrast, a planet with a more eccentric orbit might experience dramatic swings in climate as it orbited close in, then far out from its star.)
"If eccentric orbits are common for habitable planets, that would be quite a worry for life, because they would have such a large range of climate properties," Van Eylen says. "But what we find is, probably we don't have to worry too much because circular cases are fairly common."
Star-crossed numbers
In the past, researchers have calculated the orbital eccentricities of large, "gas giant" exoplanets using radial velocity — a technique that measures a star's movement. As a planet orbits a star, its gravitational force will tug on the star, causing it to move in a pattern that reflects the planet's orbit. However, the technique is most successful for larger planets, as they exert enough gravitational pull to influence their stars.
Researchers commonly find smaller planets by using a transit-detecting method, in which they study the light given off by a star, in search of dips in starlight that signify when a planet crosses, or "transits," in front of that star, momentarily diminishing its light. Ordinarily, this method only illuminates a planet's existence, not its orbit. But Van Eylen and his colleague Simon Albrecht, of Aarhus University, devised a way to glean orbital information from stellar transit data.
They first reasoned that if they knew the mass and radius of a planet's star, they could calculate how long a planet would take to orbit that star, if its orbit were circular. The mass and radius of a star determines its gravitational pull, which in turn influences how fast a planet travels around the star.
By calculating a planet's orbital velocity in a circular orbit, they could then estimate a transit's duration — how long a planet would take to cross in front of a star. If the calculated transit matched an actual transit, the researchers reasoned that the planet's orbit must be circular. If the transit were longer or shorter, the orbit must be more elongated, or eccentric.
Not so eccentric
To obtain actual transit data, the team looked through data collected over the past four years by NASA's Kepler telescope — a space observatory that surveys a slice of the sky in search of habitable planets. The telescope has monitored the brightness of over 145,000 stars, only a fraction of which have been characterized in any detail.
The team chose to concentrate on 28 stars for which mass and radius have previously been measured, using asteroseismology — a technique that measures stellar pulsations, which reflect a star's mass and radius.
These 28 stars host multiplanet systems — 74 exoplanets in all. The researchers obtained Kepler data for each exoplanet, looking not only for the occurrence of transits, but also their duration. Given the mass and radius of the host stars, the team calculated each planet's transit duration if its orbit were circular, then compared the estimated transit durations with actual transit durations from Kepler data.
Across the board, Van Eylen and Albrecht found the calculated and actual transit durations matched, suggesting that all 74 exoplanets maintain circular, not eccentric, orbits.
"We found that most of them matched pretty closely, which means they're pretty close to being circular," Van Eylen says. "We are very certain that if very high eccentricities were common, we would've seen that, which we don't."
Van Eylen says the orbital results for these smaller planets may eventually help to explain why larger planets have more extreme orbits.
"We want to understand why some exoplanets have extremely eccentric orbits, while in other cases, such as the solar system, planets orbit mostly circularly," Van Eylen says. "This is one of the first times we've reliably measured the eccentricities of small planets, and it's exciting to see they are different from the giant planets, but similar to the solar system."
David Kipping, an astronomer at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics, notes that Van Eylen's sample of 74 exoplanets is a relatively small slice, considering the hundreds of thousands of stars in the sky.
"I think that the evidence for smaller planets having more circular orbits is presently tentative," says Kipping, who was not involved in the research. "It prompts us to investigate this question in more detail and see whether this is indeed a universal trend, or a feature of the small sample considered."
In regard to our own solar system, Kipping speculates that with a larger sample of planetary systems, "one might investigate eccentricity as a function of multiplicity, and see whether the solar system's eight planets are typical or not."
This research was funded in part by the European Research Council.

Case Study: Resolving Conflict through Coaching
Posted October 17, 2014 • Case Story • by Jennifer Goldman-Wetzler, Ph.D.
The problem: Shannon and Daphne were both analytically-minded, high-achieving, Type A executives. They were also both passionate and determined to make a difference through their work at one of the world's most prestigious non-governmental organizations. Their CEO sought out coaching to help grow their leadership capacity, and to address issues they were having in their working relationship. While they generally got along well, 60+ hour work weeks and the intensity of their work made it increasingly difficult for them to collaborate effectively. The CEO wanted them to better manage their unhealthy relationship dynamics so they could continue to produce stellar work.
The underlying problem: According to the organization chart, Shannon reported to Daphne. However, in reality, Shannon and Daphne were on equal footing in terms of their ability and experience. As a result, there was a lot of unspoken disagreement about who reported to whom, and who could control how each spent her time. Added to this was a stark difference in their communication styles: Daphne was very direct and expected others to act the same. Shannon, on the other hand, did not like being on the receiving end of Daphne's direct feedback, and had a hard time being direct herself, especially with someone whose behavior intimidated her.
The solution: Through one-on-one coaching with Shannon and Daphne separately, we helped Daphne strengthen her ability to manage Shannon effectively—primarily by learning how to lead while giving Shannon much greater autonomy. We helped Shannon learn how to identify and directly articulate to Daphne what she wanted and needed to do her job effectively.
In addition, through a series of facilitated conversations, we helped Daphne and Shannon engage skillfully in the tough, honest conversations they needed to have not only with each another, but also with their CEO and other colleagues.
The results: As a result of the 1:1 coaching and facilitated conversations, Daphne and Shannon exponentially increased their leadership capacity. They were able to make sound decisions about who would work on which projects, on what timeline, and what each could expect of the other. They each honed their leadership styles to fit with one another's needs and expectations. This helped prevent the unhealthy dynamics of the past, enabled each of them to operate with greater freedom and ease than ever before, and allowed them to focus their attention where it was needed most: on their work serving the world's most deserving populations.


Medical specialist rates are commonly much higher than Medical Aid rates. This also results in an amount (often large) left for the medical aid member to fund out of their own pockets. Fortunately one gap cover policy per family from Zestlife covers the self-payment gap.
Medical aid members often do not understand that the Medical Aids may say they cover 100% of the costs involved but that, in fact, refers to, the 100% of the Medical Scheme Tariff (MST) rates which are much lower than doctors and specialist charges. Zestlife with their experience in the Medical Industry also has become experts in creating "Gap" insurance policies. So read more to find out more about Zestlife's one gap cover policy per family.
Statistics show that there is also an alarming growing gap, year on year, between what the medical aid pays and what the doctors/specialists charge.
There are also options available covering extended Cancer and Dentistry gap cover. Contact Zestlife for further details. There are also some general exclusions to persons i.e. suicide/speed racing/nuclear explosions etc. Please contact Zestlife for an up to date list. ZESTLIFE contact: 021 180 4220.

Welcome to Royston Rotary Club.
We are a lively group of men and women from a variety of backgrounds who enjoy the opportunity to meet socially, participate in the local community and contribute to international fund-raising. In normal times, members meet at Royston Golf Club to enjoy a meal and a glass or two and discuss club business or welcome an outside speaker. During the past year, we have continued meeting using video links, which has kept us connected and enabled some limited fund raising activities. At the beginning of my presidency, with the gradual lifting of restrictions we have begun to organize some small-scale face to face events but eagerly look forward to returning to our full calendar of events. At a local level, Royston Rotary are enthusiastic contributors to the local community with both financial support and through community activities. This year will be the 60th anniversary of the club's charitable efforts and in the past five years, we have raised close to £85,000 most of which has been directed towards local good causes. The pandemic has affected many lives and mental health issues have risen dramatically during this challenging time. As president I have therefore chosen the Hertfordshire Mind Network as my special charity for the club to support this year. This charity delivers vital mental health support to our local community and we look forward to supporting their efforts. In normal times we are involved in activities with a number of local schools through Youth Speaks, Youth Makes Music, a Technology Tournament and a recent Young Photographer competition. At the other end of the age range, we support those with dementia through our Memory Café . An annual Swimathon is held at Royston Leisure centre to raise money for local charities and during the pandemic, we supported the Royston Food Bank. Like many organisations, the pandemic has impacted greatly on our activities and due to uncertainty about the easing of covid restriction we have, after a great deal of debate, decided that the Kite Festival , our largest annual event, will have to be cancelled for a second year. This is a great disappointment to the club and the town but we look forward to a bigger and better Kite Festival in 2022 Royston Rotary are proud to contribute to Rotary International which is one of the world's largest and most successful humanitarian organisations providing educational and health support across the globe. In recent years, Rotary has been a major participant in the End Polio campaign and when disaster strikes, Rotary are often amongst the first responders. I joined Royston Rotary club just six years ago when we moved to the town and was impressed by the warm welcome my wife and I received. We have made many good friends through the club and enjoyed taking part in a wide variety of activities (the dining club, the walking group, quiz nights and outings). The fund raising events have been very enjoyable and collecting for Children in Need in a Pudsey outfit was definitely an experience! So if you've recently moved to the area or if you're a Roystonian born and bred, please delve into the club website to find out more information and how to join us (joining Rotary here). If you would prefer to contact me directly with a view to joining us, working with us, or asking for support please email me at president@roystonrotary.com Stephen Higginbotham President Rotary Club of Royston 2021-2022

Home Region & Caribbean English News : President-Elect David Granger addresses supporters May 14th 2015
[VIDEO]: President-Elect David Granger addresses supporters May 14th 2015
– Official inauguration to be done on Independence Day , May 26 at National Stadium
Amidst the display of love and support by thousands of Guyanese, David Arthur Granger, was sworn in as Guyana's 8th Executive President yesterday on the balcony of the Parliament with his wife, Sandra, at his side.
It has been several years since such a momentous occasion was held at Public Buildings. It is traditionally observed at State House. The venue was however chosen by Granger to demonstrate respect for the Parliament and for democracy.
There have been several attempts at coalition governments in the past but Granger's efforts will go down as being the most successful. It broke the 23-year hold the People's Progressive Party/ Civic (PPP/C) had over the nation.
Granger will be leading for the first time ever, a multinational, inclusionary government –A Partnership for National Unity plus Alliance For Change (APNU+AFC) which earned itself control of the legislative arm of government with 33 seats.
The party won the 2015 General and Regional election with just under a 5000 votes margin over the PPP/C.
Yesterday's occasional was an emotional moment, not only for the man-in-the-street but also for several public officials, members of the APNU+AFC and even some in the media fraternity.
Thousands crammed every building within range. Some found comfortable
spots at the Stabroek Market Clock, the rooftop of Demico, and the Georgetown Magistrates' Court. Others lined the fence of the Parliament building screaming for their President.
If they were not armed with APNU flags, they were decked out in creative green and yellow suits, shoes and hats.
Special invitees to the occasion included, ambassadors of America, Britain and Canada, Commissioner of the Guyana Elections Commission (GECOM), Vincent Alexander, GECOM Chairman, Dr. Steve Surujbally, International observers, the Private Sector Commission, the Georgetown Chamber of Commerce and Industry and former Labour Minister, Nanda Gopaul.
Owner of BK International, Brian Tiwarie was there as was Eddie Boyer of National Hardware. Tiwarie said that he was happy to be a part of the historic occasion. "I love Granger. He is a man of my heart. Everybody knows I support him."
When "the President of the People" arrived, there were screams. Palm branches were hoisted, horns were honked continuously, and party paraphernalia was thrown into the air.
Granger stepped out of his car elegantly clad in his black suit, with a Guyana emblem pinned to his left chest.
He then made his way to the balcony of the Parliament building. The short programme was chaired by former broadcaster Margaret Lawrence who invited local songbird, Lisa Punch, to sing the National Anthem. And she did so beautifully.
After the National Motto was recited, there were prayers by representatives of the three major religious groups in Guyana.
The Proclamation was read by Dr. Steve Surujbally then Granger took the Oath of Office which was administered by the Chancellor of the Judiciary (ag) Carl Singh.
He swore that he would bear true faith and allegiance to the people of Guyana. He also vowed to faithfully execute the Office of President without fear or favour , affection or ill will.
After signing the oath, he addressed the nation.
"It is written, this is the day which the Lord has made and we will rejoice and be glad in his name," he said to thousands of cheering Guyanese.
Granger, a historian, said that there is good reason to celebrate now, not only because of the election results but more importantly, for the restoration of democracy. He then expressed his heartfelt thanks to those who voted for the six-member coalition.
"We congratulate the successful candidates of all parties who will soon be elected to serve in the Eleventh Parliament, a parliament I will not prorogue. I encourage them to be faithful to their office."
"Let us now put the past behind us and live in unity and banish poverty, ignorance, fear and hatred.
"We are here to witness not the swearing in of the party leader but the President of all the people. I shall be a good President for all the people," the Head of State said.
Granger opined that he believes that the inauguration of a government of national unity is the best way to overcome the nation's historic divisions.
The President said that for 23 years, the citizenry witnessed the denial of democracy, the prorogation of Parliament, the high crime rate, the squandering of state resources, and youth unemployment.
The "President of the People" appealed to the nation that the damage to the nation should not push them to allow hate to fester within their hearts, but rather serve as another driving force for all to be more determined to refashion the country.
He said that it is time to look to the future. He invited all to his inauguration ceremony on May 26, Independence Day, at the National Stadium.
He also said that as soon as Parliament convenes, Moses Nagamootoo will be sworn in as Prime Minister and Leader of the House.
Granger said, too, that the outgoing administration, the People's Progressive Party/ Civic (PPP/C) has agreed to collaborate with the new government –APNU+AFC —for putting together a transition team to facilitate the transfer of assets and information needed to ensure the continuation of the country.
APNU's General Secretary, Joseph Harmon, will serve, temporarily as the Head of the Presidential Secretariat to head the APNU+AFC's team in that regard.
Though his party has been very critical of the PPP/C administration over the years, Granger still extended an olive branch to former President Donald Ramotar to join the unity movement.
Ramotar up to yesterday expressed that he is still hurt and aggrieved by the defeat.
The President then urged those present to live in peace and embrace each other regardless of race, class or political persuasion. He concluded by inviting them to join in singing the national song—"Let Us Co-operate" while holding the hand of the person beside them.
The moment was indeed filled with the feeling of joy and unity.

VOA Officially Launches Afghan Satellite TV Channel
VOA Afghan service journalists (from L - R) Noshaba Ashna, Hafiz Assefi and Roya Zamani on the air at VOA headquarters in Washington, DC.
One day after the ruling Taliban banned Voice of America broadcasts from terrestrial television, the U.S. government-funded independent news agency has officially launched a 24/7 direct-to-home satellite-delivered television channel for Afghanistan. The channel carries uncensored news and information in both the Pashto and Dari languages of the country. VOA's programs were ordered off affiliated television stations in Afghanistan effective Sunday, March 27, as part of a broad ban on content regarded as undermining Taliban policies, including prohibiting women from anchoring newscasts with men.
VOA's new TV stream, identified as "VOA Afghanistan," is on the Yahsat Y-1A satellite (52.2 degrees East), Transponder 12 (downlink frequency 11.938 GHz), Channel 469. The Yahsat satellite is Afghanistan's most popular platform, ensuring the Afghan audience will have access to VOA's programming despite the Taliban censorship.
"Afghanistan is now one of the most repressive media markets in the world," said Acting VOA Director Yolanda López. "Despite the Taliban's attempt to end press freedom, VOA News stands by its Afghan audience with credible and authoritative news and information."
The new VOA Afghanistan satellite stream includes its popular "TV Ashna" newscasts, its women's show "Etesal," viewer call-in programming, and programming from Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty's Azadi radio. Additional programming is planned, including entertainment shows to fill a void in Afghanistan, where local channels cannot air music programs.
The VOA satellite channel has been in development since August, before the fall of Afghanistan's elected government. The channel is also accessible on YouTube and on VOA's Pashto and Dari language websites.

Al Franken's "SNL" Partner, Tom Davis, Dies
Davis helped Franken develop some of the most popular skits in the early years of "SNL"
Tom Davis, a writer who with Al Franken helped develop some of the most popular skits in the early years of "Saturday Night Live," died Thursday at age 59.
His wife, Mimi Raleigh, said he died of throat and neck cancer at his home in the Hudson Valley, north of New York City. He was diagnosed in 2009.
Davis is best known as the thinner, taller partner in Franken and Davis, the off-kilter comedy duo who performed in the early years of the show. They also were among the first writers hired for the new show in 1975 and helped create memorable work such as the "Coneheads" skit with Dan Aykroyd and what evolved into the "Nick the Lounge Singer" skit starring Bill Murray performing lounge-lizard versions of songs including the "Star Wars" theme.
Raleigh said Davis and Franken "were two of the first writers hired — with one salary."
As performers, Davis was the quiet guy, overshadowed by the flashier Franken, who is now a Democratic senator from Minnesota. Davis, in a 2009 interview with The Associated Press, said, "If we were Sonny and Cher, he would be Cher."
Franken said he spoke with Davis's mother Thursday, and she recalled fondly all the laughter that would come from the basement when the two first got started in comedy.
"I visited Tom two weeks ago, and though he was deathly ill, we did a lot of laughing," Franken said. "He was a great friend, a good man, and so funny."
Dudley Riggs, founder of a comedy theater and improv in Minneapolis where Franken and Davis got their start in the 1970s before heading to "SNL," said Davis would always find "an oblique way" to tell a joke and had "a knack to be able to surprise."
Screenwriter Pat Proft called Davis and Franken a "perfect comedy team."
"Last I saw Tom he was happy," Proft said in an email. "He wrote his book. We talked. Had a wonderful time. I'm sorry for his wife. His family. For Al. For all of us who know him. A very sad day."
Davis met Franken at a suburban prep school in Minnesota, where their first gig was making announcements at morning chapel. They hit it big with "SNL" and stayed there until 1980, then returned a few years later. Davis left the show in 1994, feeling frozen out. Still, he told the AP he would always treasure his time on the show.
"It's my family. It's my extended, dysfunctional family, and I love them," Davis said.
"SNL" creator and executive producer Lorne Michaels said "no one saw things the way that Tom did."
"He was funny, he was original and he was always there to help no matter the hour," he said. "And I always trusted his laugh. I can still kinda hear it."
In the 2009 interview with AP, Davis recalled spending his childhood watching "The Mickey Mouse Club" on television while wearing Mouseketeer Ears. He was the older of two brothers. Their father worked for 3M and their mother was the 1950 Queen of the Lakes of the Minneapolis Aquatennial, an annual summer festival.
In his memoir, "Thirty-Nine Years of Short-Term Memory Loss: The Early Days of SNL From Someone Who Was There," Davis also detailed friendships with counterculture legends Jerry Garcia and Timothy Leary, his own drug use and his travel as a young hippie to India in the 1970s.
Davis kept up his quirky sense of humor to the end, writing an essay on his experiences with cancer and the coming end of his life.
"I wake up in the morning, delighted to be waking up, read, write, feed the birds, watch sports on TV, accepting the fact that in the foreseeable future I will be a dead person," Davis wrote. "I want to remind you that dead people are people too."
Veteran "SNL" writer Jim Downey said Davis had a sense of humor different from everyone else, seeming to come out of nowhere.
"He was a loyal friend, a generous and supportive collaborator, and utterly unthreatened by the success or talent of those around him," Downey said. "His old pals have known for some time that this day was coming, but still it's hard to accept that he's now no longer out there, somewhere, thinking those crazy thoughts that no one else would think."

While this all seems to be very succinct language to describe a very intricate and ongoing process, I shall reflect on the meaning of Lent under two themes: the Journey and the Goal.
These words emulate Mary's "yes" when she became the mother of God from the Gospel of Luke 1:38.
They will turn their ears away from the truth and turn aside to myths," reads 2 Timothy 4:2–4:4.
By unmasking the perception of yourself, you allow another the opportunity to prove their unconditional love for you, especially when they choose to love what is imperfect.
My father is Jewish and my mother is Catholic. They agreed to raise my brother and I Jewish. I was brought up Reform, which is the most liberal denomination in Judaism.
Sadly, by early morning on New Year's Day, the mirth of Christmas has already disappeared and most holiday virtues have been tossed to the curb along with the Christmas tree — thrown away like the crumbled-up boxes and packages that held such anticipation, wonder, and joy only days before.
Whether you're Catholic or not, St. John Paul II can help you understand how to be valued as a person and not as an object.
In 2005, a Marian shrine had been constructed for the sole purpose of private prayer, but slowly transformed into public veneration by various people. People of diverse ethnic backgrounds, cultures, races, and religious affiliations would frequent this Marian monument and ask for graces from the Blessed Mother.
Advent by its nature encourages us to espouse this virtue of hope because Christ was born, died, and rose from the dead. It is an encouragement to us to work toward a better world, knowing that we in our own lifetime may not see such an effect.
His presence provided his followers guidance on how to pray to God, how to avoid temptation, and, most importantly, his life story initiated one of the biggest pilgrimages that still continues on to this day.
The meaning of this psalm became clearer to me as I worked on trusting in Jesus and surrendering my fears over to Him during my preparation to study abroad.
"With this in mind, it might benefit us to slow down and appreciate work and virtue in everything we do, even if it doesn't seem glamorous. For people of all religious persuasions or lack thereof, there is something deeply powerful to be said for the appreciation, discovery, and practice of moral virtue in all stations and walks of life."
"The best way to surmount these artificial fences is as simple as honest conversation with those who think differently. Interreligious dialogue, as it's formally known, is a wonderful and valuable practice that helps us improve our understanding of our own beliefs and those held by others. Sincere, humble engagement is so simple, but is often neglected."
"The practice of the imagination in the development of the Catholic Church has been extensive, creative, and fruitful, but also risky and vulnerable to abuse .... But the question is not just whether or not the imagination has a role in the Church, as much as what exactly that role is. The Catholic Church is an extremely diverse institution, and it contains an immense range of spiritualities, approaches to God, and ways of expressing worship."


Tips for headlight anticipation shots?
Any tips for those style of night photo where you just see the headlight lighting up something in the distance, so called "anticipation" shots. I finally got to try some the other day but got a PAQ, which doesn't offer much input on what to do differently. Thanks.
I've did the best with these shots when several criteria below come together for a spot.
No ambient or artificial light to boost the lighting in the scene.
Near a curve, to give the headlight more time to 'brighten' the scene.
Bad weather (fog, snow, etc.) to better develop the glow in the atmosphere.
Railroad related elements that will be silhouetted by the headlight.
In your example you've got an artificially lit location which will 'fight' the locomotive headlight for exposure level in the shot. It also threw the color balance off, giving you a hot white headlight. The bridge is a great idea, but the surrounding location doesn't support this shot well enough.

Nice work Loyd! I've never been able to pull off one of the shots. How far in advance do you fire the the shutter? As soon as you see the glow of the headlight or a little before/after?
Yes, Lloyd, classic shots. Thanks.
I have tried a few, rejected.
When I see the bridge illuminated. Several nights I drove out to Dubuque on the Miss. R. You can sit on the levee and listen as they switch the yard and then work thier way up to the bridge. I would have my Border collie with me and play fetch forever and sometimes talk with kids and their cars hanging out.
Never tried this one as I didn't want to ruin some good memories with a rejection.
It varies depending on the scene, conditions, and my desire for the composition. I do try to aim for at least 20 seconds of exposure in most circumstances.
Once you can see the scene begin to illuminate from the headlight, it's time to start (but there's usually no penalty for starting earlier), and I always end the exposure right before the headlight(s) is visible. Knowing how bright the result will be based off the camera settings, the type of headlight(s), and the atmospheric conditions is something that is only possible from a lot of practice. It took me years to get to the point where I know exactly what to do to get a usable result with a very high degree of confidence.
shot 3 was 90 seconds f8, iso 400 in a heavy rain (mile long straight-away that allowed plenty of time for the headlights to work their magic).
shot 4 was 34 seconds, f6.3 iso 400 in a heavy fog. I could have halved the expsoure time to get the same level from the headlights due to the S curve behind the signal, but I wanted to introduce some red into the fog from the signal.
I didn't even notice there were other lights there but I can see now how that effects the color temp, etc. Also thanks for sharing your settings Lloyd, I would not have thought to expose for that long. Guess I'll have to continue practicing. Thanks.
I have no tips or suggestions. You just have to do it.
My advice would be to play around with different settings. There's not really a manual on any of this other than lots of practice.
I do believe simple past tense was correct for my statement sir.
Thanks to everyone for sharing tips.
One thing that maybe obvious but not explicitly mentioned.
It is good to find a location that has multiple movements or you can go back to easily. ..
After a lot of experience you might be able to get it right the first time but to start it helps to have redos.
Helpful and educational thread, thanks.
Yes very good info. I'll have to try some more shots and see what works and what doesn't. Appreciate the tips so far.
Looks like you took a chance and your good memories were not ruined.
More help and good information! Thanks Jon!!
Pull into the spot, wait an hour longer than expected, get rained on, it's getting darker, we hear the train, 20 minutes later we still hear the train, finally it's here, but it's nearly dark. so you go 1/100th, f5.6, iso 10,000 @ 400mm and start clicking.
Luck be a lady that night.
Saw that, very well done, thanks for sharing specs, finding the right trade-off.
Tripod I assume or is that a IS.
Ok. So I went out and tried doing headlight anticipation photos over the weekend. All I was able to get was streaks. Where did I go wrong?
Looks like a straight stretch, normal weather conditions (no fog, snow, rain, anything that will reflect light), and the train was way too far into the scene for anything other than a streak. You're too close to the track as well. Adjust your angle to keep the train out of the scene so that there's enough time to build the glow. Not a great location to attempt it again though.
Thanks for the reply. There is a curve there but I was too far up from where the track straightens out apparently. I hit very heavy fog getting there but was disappointed the valley didn't have any. Even the rain/drizzle stopped by the time I arrived.
