In the oral presentation a review will be given on the most recent developments in film system technology.
During the oral presentation we will report on the latest status of film system classification. Currently we are co-operating with the BAM Institute-Berlin-Germany in round robin testing and fundamental measurement issues with regards to the current film system classification standard (EN584-1). For further reference, please see paper from U.Ewert et al, with title: "Surveillance and certification of industrial X-ray films - an international project for quality assurance."
Certified pre-exposed filmstrips (so called processor monitoring control strips).
During the presentation these tools and their use will be further described.
The major part of the presentation will be devoted to the latest development in film system technology rendering ecological improvements and faster processing. The remainder of this written paper will extensively explain and document this exiting new development in today's film radiography technology.
Environmental policy with regards to silver freight in the wastewater varies greatly from country to country and region to region, and furthermore is sometimes very unclear. Agfa has developed an approach for complying with ecological legislation in a step by step process. One of the first steps was the introduction of the Structurix Silverfix, which considerably reduces the concentration of silver in the fixer.
Secondly, a totally new processor was launched on the market: the Structurix NDT S eco, a film processor with fixer cascade.
Now, the total new eco Film System is presented with a new processor, new chemicals and optimised films: the Structurix eco Film System. The Structurix NDT S eco, processing at the fast 5 minute cycle, forms the basis for the "Structurix eco Film System ". In this system the Structurix film, chemistry and processor are all carefully matched and tailored to ensure the best possible ecological results in terms of reduced silver in the waste water.
and furthermore is sometimes very unclear. Local authorities may impose stricter regulations.
this directive has the greatest chance to become the future European legislation.
the freight norm is a good approach, better than the ppm approach!
But, nevertheless, several local authorities impose silver waste requirements expressed in ppm concentration.
The freight (mg/m2) of Ag in the wash water is determined mainly by the silver concentration in the fixer (g/l).
The average silver concentration in the fixer of a correctly functioning processor is about 6 g silver per litre of fixer (with a fixer replenishment rate of 1,200 ml/m²).
This average concentration leads to a silver freight in the waste water of 300 mg/m², equivalent to around 20 ppm Ag (at 13l/m² water replenishment). In other words, high above our target norm.
In order to reduce the silver freight, the solution must be sought in a drastic reduction in the silver content of the fixer bath, e.g. electrolytic desilvering or cascade fixing.
Accordingly, Agfa has developed an approach for complying with ecological legislation in a step by step process. One of the first steps was the introduction of the Structurix Silverfix, which considerably reduces the concentration of silver in the fixer through closed loop electrolytic desilvering.
Secondly, a totally new processor is launched on the market: the Structurix NDT S eco, a film processor with fixer cascade system.
Now the total new eco Film System is presented with a new processor, new chemicals and optimised films: the Structurix eco Film System.
The Structurix NDT S eco, installed in the 5 minute cycle, forms the basis for the "Structurix eco Film System" in which the Structurix film, chemistry and processor are all carefully matched and tailored to ensure the best possible ecological results in terms of silver in the waste water.
This system is certified according to the Industrial Film Systems Classification Standards EN 584-1, ASTM E-1815, ISO 11699-1 and JIS-K7627.
The Structurix films D2, D3, D4, D5 and D7 can be used in this system. Adaptations have been made to harmonise the drying characteristics of this assortment.
a two-part bath, non-hardening developer for universal use but specially designed for super fast processing, with the lowest possible replenishment rates whilst maintaining its optimum developing capabilities.
The Structurix NDT S eco is equipped with the "cascade fixing" system - two successive fixing tanks replenished in the counterflow principle. The result is nothing less than revolutionary in terms of the amount of silver in the waste water.
The cascade fixing principle is basically very simple: the exposed film is first developed in the developer tank and then washed in the intermediate-rinsing tank. The intermediate washing system ensures that there is hardly any carry-over of developer into the fixing tanks, thus keeping the fixer bath in optimum condition. The intermediate washing also prevents development faults occurring on the film.
The film is then 100% fixed in the first fixer tank and then rinsed once more in the second fixer tank. Since fixer replenishment is carried out in the second fixer tank, the concentration of silver in this tank remains very low. There is therefor very little carrier-over of silver into the final water wash tank, so that the wastewater complies with most stringent standards.
Fixer replenishment works on the counterflow principle, with the first fixer tank being replenished from the overflow of the second fixer tank. An added advantage of this is that nearly all the silver released in the fixing stage ends up in the overflow from the first fixing tank. This does ensure maximum amount of silver in the used fixer, which does allow maximum recovery.
This unique film processing system ensures that the amount of silver in the wastewater from the Structurix NDT S eco processor is 15 to 25 times lower than in a conventional processing system.
Moreover the NDT S eco significantly reduces the amount of replenishment, not only of developer and fixer, but also of the water. This is achieved through accurate square meter replenishment.
In the Structurix eco Film System, the Structurix NDT S eco is set to the 5-minute cycle, processing at no less than 51 cm of film per minute, increasing capacity compared to the 8 min. cycle with 60%!
With the NDT S eco, ecology goes hand-in-hand with economy.
ecoDEV developer immersion time at 5 min. cycle in NDT S eco processor is 62.5 sec. Temperature for classified system is set at 31°C.
At fixer replenishment of 600 ml/m² an Ag freight of 40 mg/m² (fulfilling norm < 50mg/m²) which equals 3ppm concentration.
At fixer replenishment of 1100 ml/m² a concentration of 1ppm is reached.
This Structurix eco Film System has all possible economical (e.g. high capacity) and ecological advantages (improved for reduction of: chemistry, wastewater, silver in wastewater, packaging waste, etc.).

Julius Dittforth (* 16. August 1890 in Nienburg/Weser; † 14. August 1947 in Schkauditz) war ein deutscher Klempner, Gewerkschaftspolitiker, Präsident der Reichsbahndirektion Erfurt und Stadtrat (SPD) von Erfurt.

Leben
Dittforth stammte aus der Familie eines Klempnerhandwerksbetriebes. Nach dem Besuch der Volksschule erlernte er den Klempner-Beruf. Seit 1905 war er gewerkschaftlich organisiert. Ab 1911 studierte Dittforth in Rostock Hoch- und Tiefbau. Nach seinem Umzug nach Erfurt wurde er Eisenbahner, trat 1915 in die Sozialdemokratische Partei Deutschlands (SPD) ein. 1920 beteiligte er sich an den Kämpfen zur Niederschlagung des Kapp-Putschs. Seit 1924 war er Vorsitzender der Gesamtpersonalvertretung der Reichsbahndirektion Erfurt.

Nach dem Machtantritt des NS-Regimes 1933 wurde er für kurze Zeit verhaftet, aber wieder freigelassen. Dittforth engagierte sich im Widerstand gegen den NS-Staat. Er war Mitglied einer illegalen Gruppe von Eisenbahngewerkschaftern, die in Erfurt und Umgebung aktiv war. Später gehörte er einer anderen Widerstandsgruppe an ("Alte Kumpane"), die Aufklärung über das NS-Regime unter ehemaligen Gewerkschaftern betrieb. Nach seiner Freilassung aus der "Schutzhaft" 1933 arbeitete Dittforth in einem Ingenieurbüro. 1944 wurde er zu Zwangsarbeit bei der Organisation Todt (OT) einberufen.

Im April 1945 wurde er zum Präsidenten der Reichsbahndirektion Erfurt berufen. Als Mitglied des Bund demokratischer Sozialisten (BDS) und der SPD unterstützte er deren Parteiaufbau. 1946 wurde er mit ihrem Mandat in den Erfurter Stadtrat gewählt.

Im August 1947 verstarb er bei einem Eisenbahnunfall. An der Unfallstelle am Bahndamm in der Ortslage Schkauditz wurde ein Gedenkkreuz für ihn und einen weiteren tödlich verunglückten Eisenbahner errichtet.

Value of Food & Agricultural Trade Resource Center
The U.S. agricultural sector can't afford to take its eyes off trade. The United States is the world's second largest agricultural exporter, behind only the 28 nations of the European Union. U.S. agricultural exports reached $139.7 billion in 2018. The United States is also the world's largest agricultural importer, bringing more than $128.8 billion of food and feed to U.S. firms and families each year.
Both agricultural exports and imports have grown significantly over the last few decades to meet growing international and domestic demand. While trade in agriculture still conjures up the picture of a cargo ship of soybeans, the composition and pattern of U.S. agricultural trade has also shifted significantly. The share of bulk commodities, like grains, oilseeds, rice, and wheat, has declined while exports of consumer-oriented and high-value products—such as dairy products, fruits and vegetables, and meats—have grown. Trade agreements, such as the North American Free Trade Agreement or NAFTA, and rising household incomes around the world have shifted the destinations for U.S. agricultural exports.
With more products going to more countries around the world, the trade policy decisions made in Washington, D.C., Geneva, Switzerland, and around the world are increasingly relevant to everyday decisions on the farm. For example, two recent studies commissioned by the Farm Foundation with Purdue University found that the decision to renegotiate NAFTA into the new U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) could benefit the U.S. agricultural sector by $450 million a year, but the decision to pull the United States from the Trans-Pacific Partnership could cost the U.S. agricultural sector $1.8 billion a year in exports..
Understanding the reasoning behind, the meaning of, and the potential impacts of these trade policy decisions is critical to the future success of the U.S. food and agricultural sector. Farm Foundation's new Food and Agricultural Trade Resource Center, which is designed to bring clarity to trade discussions and enable productive debate and dialogue on these trade policy issues, strives to do just that. Nelson Mandela once said, "Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world." I urge food and agricultural stakeholders to take advantage of this opportunity to educate themselves and join the conversation about trade, trade policy, and their implications, to ensure that U.S. agriculture is prepared to participate in the policy debates to come.
Author Darci Vetter is the General Manager for Public Affairs at Edelman. Ambassador Vetter is a former Chief Agricultural Negotiator with the U.S. Trade Representative and Deputy Under Secretary of Agriculture at the U.S. Department of Agriculture.

Stealth And Subterfuge:
Rapture Cult Tactics Betray Their True Nature
aving written literally dozens of essays on various aspects of the pre-tribulation rapture doctrine, and the hidden Jewish Supremacism that lurks beneath the surface of the false doctrine, I've repeatedly enunciated many, many Scriptural studies, which invalidate the theory. In this regard, the actual behaviour of those who engage in the ongoing debate is also a relevant factor in evaluating the various views held on prophecy.
In my early days of clashing with the Rapture Cult, I instinctively sought to refrain from attacking the doctrine through criticism of the deeds of the doctrine's adherents. Concurrent with this practice, I found that more than one Rapturist teacher was seeking to place the allegedly Christ-like behaviour of Rapturists into the evidentiary record, as an argument in favor of pre-trib. Documentation for this dubious tactic is found in the first of my 4 books on the subject, a work entitled The Rapture Cult: Dishonesty In Dispensationalism.
Although I was initially a bit reluctant to seek to counter those arguments through "dishing the dirt" on the doctrine's proponents, it became clear that since Rapture teachers had introduced the supposed "good works" of the Rapturists as a by-product that validated the veracity of the doctrine, I would be remiss if I did not stand and tell what I knew about the many, many pretrib liars I've encountered.
Furthermore, I found others who had trod the same logical path of progression. Notably, author Dave MacPherson, who penned a work on this very subject entitled The Three R's: Rapture, Revisionism, and Robbery. In that interesting tome, the intrepid Mr. MacPherson documented dozens of widely unknown cases of plagiarism by a multitude of Cult authors. The book proved, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that way too many Rapturist authors, seeking to "rapture" the golden fleece of writers royalties, can't seem to resist ripping off each other's work.
I might add that Cult critics are free to attack my behaviour as well, but I would hasten to mention I've never made the claim that post-tribulationism makes anybody manifest good works. This is a claim that is only heard in Rapturist quarters.
In studying the Rapturist arguments, I also found a huge amount of misquoting of anecdotal data concerning the historicity (or lack thereof) of the doctrine. This amounted to a fundamental form of dishonesty, and it occurred even in many institutions of higher learning. A top Rapturist would make statements, in print and in lectures, that essentially said "A knowledgeable Christian, Mr. ______ (fill in the blank) taught the pre-tribulation rapture, back in 1650."
Contrary to such assertions, my studies indicated that Dispensationalism, the theological system that Pretribulationism requires, was only developed in the late 19th century. I began to collect quotes, recordings, and writings where the rapture teacher claimed that pretrib had been around from the beginning. I then collected the original works of the authors and teachers who had supposedly taught the pretrib rapture so long ago.
After accumulating dozens of examples, to my complete astonishment, I found that not one of these ancient authorities ever heard of the pretribulation rapture, let alone taught it. These notes later formed the core of my first two books on the subject (The Rapture Cult, and Lying In Laodicea). I eventually concluded it was impossible to refute the dissemination of false historical data, in which teachers claiming ancient sources taught the rapture, without concluding these misquoting modernists were, in fact, liars.
As I didn't want to sound like some stupid and unlearned mental deficient with a personal axe to grind, I resolved to try to consistently place the criticism of such deception in a Scriptural context.
Once I crossed the aforementioned threshold, and began utilizing historical anecdotal data in addition to the Scriptural evidence for post-trib in this battle, it was as if I opened Pandora's Box, as an enormous amount of evil wafted up from the bottomless pit which controls the vessels that promote the Satanic sacred cow that is pretrib. As a result, for the umpteenth time, I have once again found myself the target of a completely unprovoked literary attack by Cultists; and as I considered the circumstances surrounding the latest episode, I was reminded there really is a nasty spirit that dispatches those fiery darts.
Lots Of Believing Liars
A group called Prophezine is a Texas based Rapture Cult that personifies the rampant Pharisaism that permeates the American version of the Whore of Babylon. Hypocritical in the extreme, Prophezine associates have now been seen to maintain a double standard, as they are "accusers of the brethren," even as the ministry utilizes misrepresentation, distortion of facts, slanting of Scripture, and even outright falsehoods to further their agenda.
Operated by a man named Ray Gano, rather than conducting themselves in a Scriptural fashion when conflict arises, I will document how the Prophezine "ministry" has been seen to use libel, defamation, and subterfuge as the weapons of their warfare. In short, their misbehaviour is consistent with that seen in corporate American Rapture Cults for decades. I'll return to the subject of this particular ministry shortly, but a little digression on the history of the ongoing war with groups of this nature will be useful.
Those hardy Remnant souls who have clashed with the Cult already know a preferred tactic is to espouse a gentle Spirit of alleged agape love whenever they find themselves in combat. Rapture Cults commonly seek to emphasize the putrid "we can agree to disagree" dialectical approach, even as they are ruthless and mercenary once their opponent's guard is down.
Indeed, in any conflict between competing Christian views, the party maintaining a truly Christ-like stance is at a severe disadvantage in terms of "winning" a dispute in any earthly setting. However, while the treachery and duplicitous practices of groups such as Prophezine seemingly gain the Spiritual "high ground" through their unseen manipulation of facts and Scripture, the real victor in the heavenly realm will always be the truly chosen of the LORD.
As the influence and reach of the Christian Media ministry has grown, our aggressive post-tribulational Remnant stance has been noted by many significant Rapturist groups. I might add that the very fact that I continually identify these doctrinal groups with the "cult" appellation, although admittedly abrasive and provocative, is an indicator of an inherently honest approach. Conversely, to feign agreement and fellowship while looking for an adversarial advantage is inherently dishonest. Thus, by telling them upfront I consider their doctrinal position to be false and of cultic origin, I am shooting straight from the hip.
On the opposite side of the chasm, Rapturists routinely attack on personal grounds, instead of offering a Scriptural analysis. They regularly try to project the image that they are reasonable believers, and urge those who disagree with them to maintain a modicum of Scriptural decency, even as they approach a collision. Yet, when the inevitable clash occurs, the Cult always seems to come into the ring with a no-holds barred attack.
Does This Remind You Of Anybody?
The tactic is reminiscent of governments who sign treaties such as the Geneva Accords on treatment of prisoners, in the hope their own combatants will be treated humanely if captured. Yet those same governments, when they are the captors, produce all manner of justification for mistreating the prisoners they've captured. I'm not saying that wartime procedure never justifies the use of extreme measures, I'm saying the deceitful process of trying to get your opponent to adhere to rules of combat you yourself have no intention of honouring, is patently dishonest. After all, Jesus did say "by their fruits ye shall know them." (Matthew 7:20)
So it is with the Rapture Cult. The common discourse among evangelical, rapture oriented ministries uniformly exhorts believers to adhere to Scriptural principles in all things; yet, before the smoke of this subterfuge begins to clear in the arena of religious rivalry, the venomous vultures of pretribulationism seek to destroy their enemies with a presumed air of righteous triumph.
Over the years, I've seen this phenomena many, many times, and marveled at the sheer audacity involved. A good example was seen on national Christian television over a decade ago. I was in Texas on the Dallas leg of a 25-city prophecy speaking tour, and I had been invited to be a guest on the Daystar Television Network, on a show hosted by Marcus and Joni Lamb. Backstage I was introduced to Dr. Randall Price, a prominent Rapturist author, and leading researcher with Tim LaHaye's cult corporation, The Pre-Trib Research Center.
Of course the deck was already stacked against me, as Dr. Price and the Lamb's are all 3 dedicated pre-tribulationists. Even though I knew I was going into a TV Lion's den run by the Lambs, backstage Dr. Price spoke of the bonds of unity, our common faith in Christ, and how two competing perspectives can still serve the same LORD. Being a warm and sensitive human being who wants to believe the best of people, I was lulled into complacency as I hoped the program would follow in that Spirit.
Once the program began, I was quickly jolted back to the real world as Price immediately began to attack ME, and not the post-tribulationist doctrine I espouse. One particular statement stuck with me, and it may be paraphrased as
"The pre-tribulationist rapture POSITION is looking for Jesus Christ, but JAMES is looking for the Antichrist."
While the technique may be a bit subtle to some, the fact is, with this attack Dr. Price abruptly attacked via a move called ad hominem, a Latin term for "to the man." Webster's states that ad hominem means
"Directed at or appealing to one's hearer's or reader's personal feelings or prejudices rather than his intellect."
A secondary meaning is just as appropriate in the present context, as Webster's also defines this ad hominem approach to conflict as
"Marked by attack on an opponent's character rather than by answer to his contentions." (Webster's Third New International Dictionary).
In other words, instead of arguing the position via Scripture, Dr. Price attacked the person holding the opposing view. Furthermore, while characterizing his point of view as a position, something that implies legitimacy through a perceived consensus, with this rather nasty swipe, he sought to make it personal.
Considering the fact that it is the pre-tribbers who commonly claim their doctrine induces holy behaviour, it wasn't as though I had made the same claim for post-tribulationism.
As I want to make absolutely sure my point is understood here, I'll reduce it to the language of the street by simply saying they fight dirty.
Pre-Trib Will Try To Pull You Up, You Tare
Just about every believer knows that Christ warned believers the day would come when
"whosoever killeth you will think that he doeth God service." John 16:2)
This is the exact opposite of Christ's admonition to the disciples when they sought His approval to destroy a Samaritan village for their rejection of Him. Attempts to uproot, or destroy a ministry through character assassination - the equivalent of an effort to pull up the tares - were strictly forbidden by the LORD:
"His servants said unto him, Wilt thou then that we go and gather [pull] them up? But he said, Nay; lest while ye gather up the tares, ye root up also the wheat with them. Let both grow together until the harvest..." (Matthew 13:28-30)
Obviously, there is a carefully discerned difference between exposing deception, and uprooting its source. While there are those who accuse Christian Media of such unsavory tactics, such critiques rarely bother to look behind the fa�ade erected by the provocateurs who function as the Pharisees of our time. In this regard, we've produced quite a bit of material that seeks to diagnose, analyze, and respond to the patterns of behaviour found in erupting conflicts with the Cult.
The best example of how to behave in such circumstances is, of course, seen in Christ Himself. The LORD's various denunciations of the Jews, the Sanhedrin, or the Scribes and the Pharisees were never unleashed until they had repeatedly provoked Him with their hypocrisy. Thus, a rather fine line is in view.
What I'm seeking to communicate here is how the provocations are provided by the Rapturists. Just as the ancient Pharisees stalked Christ with hypocritical questions and posturing, which ultimately culminated in His denunciatory "Woe unto you, Scribes and Pharisees, Hypocrites!," so too the Cult recapitulates the evil of their Spiritual forebears. In short, the anecdotal data plainly documents how wicked tactics utilized in the fight over the truth concerning the return of Christ, are almost universally found in the camp of the Cult.
Dave MacPherson documents, for instance, how the faculty leadership at the Biola Bible College denied him his semester credits - 3 weeks before the semester ended - for the "sin" of sharing his post-tribulationist view with other students. This was clearly a punitive and pre-emptive measure aimed at impeding his future ability to function in a ministerial capacity.
Christian Media has found similar examples of grossly oppressive behaviour at other institutions as well, including Calvary Chapel's Bible School, where a certain group of students were told they would be denied graduation for remaining unconvinced of pre-trib. Logic dictates that a few generations of this type of behaviour has invariably allowed the Cult to achieve primacy in American Christianity.
In a scholarly work entitled Living In The Shadow Of The Second Coming: American Premillennialism 1875-1982, respected author Timothy Weber documented this practice as well. A superb work, which is now out of print, it is likely this magnificent bit of research will never be read by most Christians. In it, Weber traces the rise of political and economic power in the emergent doctrinal group we call the Rapture Cult. He also documents how the Cult sought to crush their theological rivals in post-tribulationism, after they had achieved dominance in the American Christian landscape.
For those who are interested, there are many examples of Cult inquisitions of this type, and much more anecdotal data of this type of theo-tyranny is found in the book Lying In Ladocea: Rapturism Unmasked by the present author. The truth is, there are significant numbers of similar episodes of Cult suppression of the historic Gospel of post-tribulationism which can be documented, but the point is, the pulling up of alleged tares takes on many forms.
The Silicon Cesspool
There are few locales in American Christianity more polluted than the Internet, and it is in that vast wasteland we find the most excessive examples of the slithery strategic war on the truth, which is conducted by the Rapture Cult.
A short time ago, I was forwarded a correspondence that occurred on one of the websites of the previously mentioned Prophezine. As one might expect, there are significant numbers of Christians who have also felt the criminal backhand of the corporate church, and many of them have rallied around our Christian Media ministry - thus, slimy secretive attacks by the Cult frequently find their way to me.
The progression of this particular Satanic assault is particularly revealing, for it demonstrates the central theme of the present work - and that is how the underhanded methods used by the Rapture Cult betray their true Spiritual condition.
In the present instance, an Internet forum, one of those bulletin boards where believers voice their many opinions as they practice the dialogue to consensus, was the arena. It should be stated that Christian Media has long declared the Dialectic is a devilish system, but the Prophezine ministry, along with vast numbers of others, continues to utilize this infernal device (for more on this important issue, see Dragonspeak: The Language Of Lucifer).
This particular Cult bulletin board (there are thousands of a similar nature), consists of about 300 Christian Rapturists, and it recently carried about a dozen posts by Cultists all declaring why they believe the pretribulation rapture doctrine is true. These were posted over a period of days. In the middle of this flow of faulty reasoning, one member innocently asked "Has anyone heard of James Lloyd and the Christian Media Network?" The response was almost immediate, as one of Prophezine's key figures posted the following:
"He's a fake; a fraud. I don't recall ever reading anything good about him. False prophet (or is that PROFIT?) amongst other things. He's a money-grubber, a cheat, a liar, and that's just being nice from all that I've read about him. Don't waste your time with this nut job."
While new readers of our work might be taken aback by the ferocity of this attack, I'm sorry to report it is only the latest in a long line of sleazy slanders against me personally. Obviously, this fits the earlier definition cited for the term ad hominem:
But the interesting thing is, in the midst of consistent pro-pretrib statements by Rapturists, there were no "contentions" from me, as I have nothing to do with this group. In fact, there were no posts by anyone citing any post-trib assertions, or any of the many Scriptural arguments against post-trib that I have propagated elsewhere. Thus, the question could be asked, how did I get in the middle of this topical thread?
In this abrupt and unprovoked assault, what is very interesting is what is not in the acrimonious diatribe. There are no Scriptural citations. There is no documentation of any kind to support the wicked epithets thrown my way. And most revealingly, there is no connection ever stated to the fact that I am one of the key opponents of the Rapture Cult.
To put it another way, since I'm not all that famous, for the hundreds of readers who received this vicious broadside, there is no context whatsoever for the remarks. Thus, it's hardly a coincidence to find me personally, and despitefully sullied, right in the middle of a series of posts concerning the Rapture, since I just "happen " to be an opponent of pretrib.
Unfortunately, this is the way the Rapture Cult conducts business.
An Attempt At Scriptural Reproof
Although this sort of thing occurs relatively frequently, and I usually just turn the other cheek, on occasion I sense the LORD would have me respond. In such circumstances, the Scriptures are clear concerning what to do if a believer has a problem with another believer. Most know the prescriptive approach was given by Christ Himself in Matthew 18:
"Moreover, if thy brother shall trespass against thee, go and tell him his fault between thee and him alone..But if he will not hear thee, then take with thee one of two more...And if he shall neglect to hear them, tell it unto the church: but if he neglect to hear the church, let him be unto thee as an heathen man and a publican." (Matthew 18:15-17)
This is obviously a complex process, but the part where differences should begin to be addressed through some sort of private communication is obviously a good starting point. Unfortunately, the acrimonious statements made by the Rapturists were clearly engineered in a public venue in order to damage and destroy the credibility of one who is in a position to articulate the truth concerning the pre-tribulationist error.
However, this does not release me from Scriptural requirements for conflict resolution as provided for in the text. In other words, even though the Prophezine ministry has chosen to ignore Scriptural mandates when it suits them, I'm still bound by those same set of imperatives.
Thus, I privately emailed the person who slandered me. In this individual communication directed towards the person who posted the accusations, a man named Michael Larsen, I utilized a firm, but gentle tone. I wrote "Mike" the following:
"Your statements were crafted in an entirely unscriptural fashion. The Scriptures provide many statements including how believers are to behave concerning another who offends them, or they find offensive. They are to go to that person privately, and voice their concern (Matthew 18). You did not do anything of the kind when you chose to accuse me of being a liar, a cheat, etc.
"Perhaps I've encountered you before and don't recognize your handle/email name, or perhaps you are acting on an impression given you by another. That does not vitiate your responsibility as a believer to abide by Scriptural imperatives. Please give this your sincere attention, and I will hope to hear something of a favorable nature from you in the near future."
To say the Prophezine response was hostile is an understatement. Instead of responding to the opportunity offered through a call to abide by the Scriptural formula addressing conflict among believers, Mike immediately escalated the attack and posted another public attack on the Cult board! He also emailed me with venomous accusations, even as he reviled me extensively.
A dispassionate analysis of these written statements provides additional evidence of the pattern of deceit I'm addressing in the present work. For example, when this person showed his contempt for me in response to my call for a Scripturally based interaction, he specifically noted his awareness of my opposition to the rapture. He further noted my writings on the subject, and included a lengthy statement concerning his view that salvation has no relationship to "a person's belief on the timing of the Rapture."
Interestingly enough, 20 minutes later, when the 2nd attack on me was publicly placed on the Prophezine website, it omitted any reference to my teachings on the Rapture Cult! Revealingly, the 2nd attack focused on various prophetic doctrinal issues, predictions of mine, and referenced me with more guttural terminology such as "pompous," and "utterly stupid," and my personal favorite, "a consummate fraud."
My final response was to email a firm but gentle email to Ray Gano, the head of this hydra, to be certain he was aware of the slanderous, and once again, unprovoked attack, begun by his ministry. This correspondence simply stated that his associate had been politely asked to respond in the spirit of Matthew 18. Predictably, there was no response, but he did note to his public readers "I see from Mike that the pot is getting stirred," even as Ray Gano then obliquely addressed me in a writing called "frauds, fakes, and false prophets."
So much for Matthew 18.
More Attacks Of A Personal Nature
When Mike Larsen fulfilled his role as Ray Gano's Rottweiler, through his rabid attack on my character, he further revealed the caliber of these creeps by escalating his evil, as he then began to attack even my wife. In the 2nd round of Prophezine's unprovoked slamdance, the ministry's constituency was told that in 1997,
"James and future Sound Body Host Susan Lenox began using drugs at the ministry..."
This comes as a complete surprise to me since the Holy Spirit flowed like a mighty rushing wind at Christian Media through most of that year - but the Satanically inspired sleights were just beginning.
After mocking Christian Media for distributing prophetic material in books and tapes "at various prices in the online catalog" (something the Prophezine group also does), Larsen condemned me for distributing dehydrated food as well, stating
"James made out like a bandit while the "flock" were fleeced."
We're not sure how well "bandits" are supposed to "make out," nor do I know just what constitutes a "fleecing," but I note the Prophezine ministry presently (and prominently) touts storing food, and has a significant presence dedicated to the subject on their own website. So if Christian Media, a post-tribulationist ministry urges people to prepare for famine, it's fleecing the flock, but when the Rapture Cult Prophezine does the same thing, it's considered above board?
We might also ask just why is the Cult warning people to prepare for famine since they'll be leaving soon anyway, right?
Woe Unto You Scribes And Christian Pharisees, Hypocrites!
There are a few more interesting details to Mike Larsen and Ray Gano's deceitful attacks on the Christian Media ministry, but I think the reader gets the point. In conclusion, I'll reiterate that, other than Scripture studies referencing the lack of Biblical support for the pretribulation rapture doctrine, at no time have we previously written about any of the people at the Prophezine ministry.
They simply attacked with vicious, unsubstantiated and slanderous accusations that are either bald-faced lies, or gross distortions of what we really teach. Furthermore, as is the consistent pattern with Rapture Cultists, they routinely mount their attacks on subjects other than the one which really rankles them, and that is the fact that our work exposing the checkered history and lack of Scriptural support for the pretribulational rapture doctrine has caused the Cult considerable consternation.
After being condemned and spoken of contemptuously with everything but four letter words, when we sought to respond in the way Scripture instructs, the effort to comply with New Testament directives was ignored, and the vitriol sharply increased - and even added a very non Christ-like, and completely false, slander against my spouse.
Like previous slurs that have become a way of life for us, the Prophezine libel was personal, nasty, and vicious. Father, forgive them for they know not what they do.
The Scriptures state, in addition to forgiving them before the LORD, a public denunciation ("tell it to the church") is in order after the private overtures fail. This writing, which constitutes yet another public rebuke of the Rapture Cult, is not dissimilar to those seen in other cases of attacks launched by Cult leaders. In it, we sought to examine the degree of fidelity, or lack thereof, to Prophezine's own widespread admonitions that we should all consistently adhere to Scripture.
In this regard, I previously mentioned how Rapture Cult leaders boast that the doctrine of Pretribulationism leads to righteous behaviour. In writing, Ray Gano, the leader of Prophezine, has made that precise claim:
"The first implication of pretribulationism is that it leads to godly living in an unholy age." (The PTRC Conference, Ray Gano)
We can only wonder, as we continue to interact with those in the Rapture Cult, just when the "godly living" part is scheduled to begin.

Q: Finding distance from center of polygon to its furthest edge/point?
I have thousands of 2D irregular contours a shown. They are tree and other vegetation contours. I would like to come up with a representative radius from their centroid to their further edge/point with arcgis. I have spatial and 3d analyst licenses just don't see a way. I have already generated their centroids in a separate file.
Any advice on how I can proceed?

A: Perhaps you would be happy by computing minimum bounding circles for your polygons. See http://desktop.arcgis.com/en/arcmap/10.3/tools/data-management-toolbox/minimum-bounding-geometry.htm
You will get a new measure as an attribute:

For CIRCLE, the new field and measurement are:
MBG_Diameter—The diameter of the resulting circle.

A: Your best bet is to convert feature vertices to points, and then iterate through each midpoint and perform a point distance on its correlating polygon vertices. This will be a slow process, but I'm not aware of any other process that will work for you.
In the below example, I create a dictionary with polygon UIDs as its key and the furthest distance as its value. The script makes use of the Point Distance tool, which requires and advanced license. If you don't have an advances license I've written a blog with a custom Point Distance here.
#centroid points
centroidFc = r"C:\data.gdb\Test_Midpoints"
#polygons
polyFc = r"C:\data.gdb\Test_Polygons"
#unique ID field. shared in both feature classes
uidFld = "UID"

import arcpy

#feature verts to points
featVertFc = r"in_memory\vertPnts"
arcpy.FeatureVerticesToPoints_management (polyFc, featVertFc)

#empty dictionary
di = {}

#iterate midpoints
with arcpy.da.SearchCursor (centroidFc, [uidFld]) as curs:
    for uid, in curs:
        #sql for selection
        sql = "{} = {}".format (uidFld, uid)
        #create feature layer with sql applied
        arcpy.MakeFeatureLayer_management (centroidFc, "Test_FeatureToPoint", sql)
        arcpy.MakeFeatureLayer_management (featVertFc, "Test_VertPoints", sql)
        #create point distance table
        arcpy.PointDistance_analysis ("Test_FeatureToPoint", "Test_VertPoints", r"in_memory\PntDist")
        #get table max
        maxDist = arcpy.da.TableToNumPyArray (r"in_memory\PntDist", "DISTANCE")["DISTANCE"].max ()
        #add to dictionary
        di [uid] = maxDist
        #clean up
        for fil in ["Test_FeatureToPoint", "Test_VertPoints", r"in_memory\PntDist"]:
            arcpy.Delete_management (fil)

arcpy.Delete_management (r"in_memory\vertPnts")

print di

Result:

A: One technique could be this:

*

*Convert you polygons to polylines

*Run the Near or Generate Near Table tool

As you have extracted the centroid already, logically the polyline that surrounds it must be the nearest edge.
But you specifically state you want the furthest edge, so you would need to convert your polygon to it's constituent vertices and test all scenarios.
This could be easily wrapped up in a model.
You say you want a "representative radius" so alternatively you could extract the minimum bounding box and it's width may be sufficient?

Judith Krug and Judy Blume.
The late Judith Krug of ALA's Office for Intellectual Freedom (http://www/ala.org/oif) is credited with beginning this annual event held during the last week in September. This year it runs from September 22-28. While all of us believe in open access to information, it can become a scary concept to defend, particularly in some locations.
If you are not tenured, defending a challenged book can cost your job. Those with tenure risk ostracism, anger, reassignment, and possible retaliation to the library program. Standing up to censors takes an inordinate amount of courage. Even with support, the librarian (and I know one) frequently feels alone. Yet, each year public and school librarians rise to meet those who would impose their personal opinions and moral beliefs on others. Some of these heroes are honored at the state and national level with an Intellectual Freedom Award, but first they dealt with the stress and fear.
I commend them all and hope you find inspiration from them should the time come when you are faced with such a situation. For your own protection, do whatever you can to have a Selection Policy (approved by the Board of Education or it's not policy) in place including procedures for dealing with challenges—and make sure administrators are aware of it. The Office for Intellectual Freedom (OIF) has sample policies on its website. Do know, help is available from OIF. Contact them as soon as you are informed of a challenge and staff will guide you through it.
The titles of challenged books often make the best reading list. Books Challenged or Banned 2012-2013 (http://www.ila.org/BannedBooks/BBW_2012-2013_Shortlist.pdf) include the classic short story by Richard Connell "The Most Dangerous Game," Walter Dean Myers Fallen Angels, and the frequently challenged/banned And Tango Makes Three by Justin Richardson and Peter Parnell. You can find lists at the Banned Books sites on the most challenged over the years and lists from past years.
I hope you've planned something for the week and can raise awareness in your school. Find "Ideas & Resources" to mark the week at http://www.ala.org/bbooks/bannedbooksweek/ideasandresources and visit the Banned Books Week: Celebrating the Freedom to Read site at http://www.bannedbooksweek.org.

Чжанся́нь () — уезд городского округа Динси провинции Ганьсу (КНР). Уезд назван по реке Чжаншуй.

История
При империи Хань в 76 году в этих местах был создан уезд Чжансянь (障县, «пограничный уезд»). При империи Тан во времена правления императрицы У Цзэтянь он был переименован в Уян (武阳县). Впоследствии эти земли были захвачены тибетцами.

При империи Сун в этих местах было основано укрепление Яньчуань (盐川寨). Когда эти земли вошли в состав чжурчжэньской империи Цзинь, то укрепление было преобразовано в посёлок. Во времена правления монголов в 1270 году вокруг посёлка был вновь образован уезд Чжансянь (障县). При империи Мин написание названия уезда было изменено на 漳县. При империи Цин в 1829 году уезд Чжансянь был присоединён к уезду Лунси.

В 1913 году уезд Чжансянь был образован вновь.

В 1949 году был образован Специальный район Миньсянь (岷县专区), и уезд вошёл в его состав. В мае 1950 года Специальный район Миньсянь был расформирован, и уезд перешёл в состав Специального района Тяньшуй (天水专区). В 1958 году уезд Чжансянь был присоединён к уезду Ушань.

В 1961 году уезд Чжансянь был воссоздан и передан в состав Специального района Линьтао (临洮专区). В 1963 году Специальный район Линьтао был расформирован, и уезд Чжансянь вернулся в состав Специального район Тяньшуй. В 1969 году Специальный район Тяньшуй был переименован в Округ Тяньшуй (天水地区).

В 1985 году округ Тяньшуй был расформирован, и уезд Чжансянь перешёл в состав округа Динси (定西地区).

Постановлением Госсовета КНР от 4 апреля 2003 года был расформирован округ Динси и образован городской округ Динси.

Административное деление
Уезд делится на 10 посёлков и 3 волости.

If you're into hiking, the Garden route offers a collection of some of the best trails on the planet.
Here, we feature 5 trails within easy reach of Hog Hollow Country Lodge.
The beautiful Robberg peninsula with its astounding range of flora, fauna, unspoilt beaches and medium-difficulty rocky climbs, jaust 10 minutes drive from the centre of Plettenberg Bay, features 3 hikes of varying length.
Park at the secure parking area and strike out to the east for a circular route that brings you back to the car park.
Along the way you can view the Robberg seal colony, and sometimes, whales or even sharks!
Hike durations: 1 or 3 or 5 hours, depending on the route you choose.
There is an entry fee required at the gate.
Comprising the first 3km of the world renowned Otter Trail, this fairly difficult hike, westwards away from the Storms River campgrounds in Tsitsikamma National Park, features a fair amount of rock-hopping over some slippery, jagged, terrain, culminating at a beautiful waterfall. Although only 3 hours in duration, you may want to make a day of it and take a picnic and swimming gear.
You will need to pay for entry into the Tsitsikamma National Park.
So named because the destination is a high rocky outcrop resembling a pig's head, this moderate difficulty hike leads you across the Groot River, through Nature's Valley's beautiful indigenous forest and up some relatively steep, sometimes slippery, terrain, culminating in breath-taking views of the sea, coast, and Nature's Valley lagoon.
Hike duration is about 2 hours.
A challenging 9km circular hike, duration 5 hours, you will get to see a little of everything the area has to offer: a waterfall, indigenous forest, fynbos, gorgeous sea views and rocky beaches.
There is a less strenuous 4km option available, too.
There is normally an entrance fee applicable.
Just 30 minutes drive eastwards from Hog Hollow Country Lodge will bring you to the Bloukrans Forest Station, from where the Stinkhoutkloof Nature Walk commences. Be prepared for pristine indigenous forest featuring remarkable fungi, beautiful tree ferns and several river crossings. The water, although discoloured from tree tannins, is drinkable, and you also want to have a swim in summer. Entry to the trail is free, by self-issued permit, and the hike should take you no longer than 3 hours.
IMPORTANT: Since condition may vary according to weather and, in some cases, the tides of the sea, we suggest you consult the friendly staff at Hog Hollow Country Lodge before tackling any hike.

Hospital staff and other healthcare insiders may pose a greater threat to patients' protected health information than external hackers. That is the view of Michael DuBose, managing director and cyber investigations practice leader for global investigations firm Kroll Advisory Solutions.
DuBose penned a white paper titled The Insider Threat: Why Chinese Hacking May Be the Least of Corporate Worries. It states that two thirds of cyber thefts of trade secrets and other proprietary data involved insiders, rather than external hackers. He believes that healthcare organizations can take valuable lessons from its findings.
"There's a data broker in the underground internet for almost any type of personal information and because healthcare records provide, in many respects, the broadest spectrum of personal information on any given individual, its value is higher in the underground brokerage system," he said.
In order to protect against malicious insiders, DuBose recommends that patient data is encrypted and made available only to employees who really need to access it.
He also recommends having a credible deterrent in the form of a thorough investigation of any breach and serious consequences for staff caught stealing patient information. In order to identify culprits, it is important to ensure that there is sufficient logging of activity on the network to be able to trace who might have been responsible for a data breach.
"Without that, without the kind of digital footprint created by sufficient network logging it's very difficult for investigators to investigate a patient healthcare breach after the fact," he said.

Former club captain Chris Cowdrey has been named as Kent Cricket's next president throughout 2023.
From 1 January 2022, he will serve as the club's deputy president, with Yvonne Neame in place as club president for the next calendar year.
A prolific all-rounder, Cowdrey's cricketing career spanned three decades, captaining the county on 290 occasions between 1982 and 1990, officially as club captain from 1985 until the turn of the decade.
The former right-armer scored over 12,000 runs and took over 300 wickets, with 21 centuries to his name whilst wearing a Kent shirt.
He was awarded his Kent men's cap (no. 157) in 1979, three years after his professional debut as a Kent player against Yorkshire in 1976.
Cowdrey also made nine appearances for England in both red and white ball cricket, captaining his country on one occasion - a home test match against the West Indies in 1988.
Since retiring from the game in 1992, he has become an ardent supporter of the Lord's Taverners, a charity helping to provide opportunities for young people with a disability and those living in higher poverty through the vehicle of cricket. He was appointed as the charity's president between 2012 and 2015.
Qais Ahmad returns to Kent for 2022 T20 Blast
He is now joint-chair of Lord's Taverners' West Kent region, and raised over £25,000 this past month to support the work of dedicated volunteers helping to deliver their programmes in Kent and beyond.
On being named as Kent president for 2023, Cowdrey said: "I'm honoured to have been appointed as the president of my county club for 2023.
"Kent Cricket has deep roots in the local community and it's been so heartening to see the work that the club has been doing to make a difference on our doorstep through cricket – through my presidency, I will be making sure that this good work continues to thrive alongside the growth in stature of our men's and women's performance squads."
Kent's 2022 president Neame added: "It will be fantastic to be Kent Cricket's president next year with Chris serving as deputy president, before I formally hand over my role to him on 1 January, 2023.
"Chris' passion for improving people's lives through cricket is infectious and I'm sure he will be looking forward to helping enact more positive change in the next two years."

UP Housing Board to issue e-tendering for projects less than Rs 1 crore
Even though the system is officially launched from May this year, UPHDB formally announced it on the occasion of 242nd meeting of board.Priyanka Singh | TNN | July 07, 2017, 13:00 IST
LUCKNOW: With instructions coming from the Centre to implement online tendering of all housing projects, Uttar Pradesh Housing and Development Board (UPHDB) has announced to issue online tenders for projects less than Rs 1 crore too. Earlier, the board used to issue online tenders for only projects whose cost was above Rs 1 crore but in order to implement Centre's instructions and bring transparency into the tender process, the board announced to do it for projects less than Rs 1 crore.
Even though the system is officially launched from May this year, UPHDB formally announced it on the occasion of 242nd meeting of board. Another big decision in compliance with Centre's orders was to allow Rs 400 as special pay in salaries of all junior engineers. The board approved it too claiming that it will make a big difference to the salaries of junior engineers holding diploma in engineering.
The meeting was chaired by principal secretary of housing and urban planning department of Up government, Mukesh Singhal who instructed the UPHDB officials to launch a special drive for a week to resolve all pending property related disputes and grievances of people. He emphasised on complying with the deadline of government's integrated grievance redressal system (IGRS) and resolving people's complaints on priority.
The board has also announced constructing the first ever township in Lakhimpur Kheri after witnessing a huge demand for houses there due to urbanisation. The Housing Board has already developed such townships in tier III cities like Sitapur, Hardoi, Raebareli, Sultanpur etc and on the same patterns, it has proposed to build a township in Lakhimpur Kheri on 128 hectare land. This will be the first township of the city providing all sorts of housing units like flats, commercial spaces, plots, independent houses to all income groups of people.
The UPHDB Board approved the proposal on Thursday and forwarded it to the state government for approval. Officials said the cost of acquiring land would be about Rs 1000 crore and the project's construction would begin by next year.

A newly discovered vulnerability on Ethereum allowing for malicious GasToken Minting was found. The development team already acknowledged the issue and informed most of the affected users on November 13, 2018, via private disclosure.
Crypto exchanges usually allow the withdrawal of Ethereum to arbitrary addresses with no gas usage limit; since this executes a fall back function, attackers can use this to make exchanges pay for arbitrary computation, allowing them to force exchanges to burn their own Ethereum on high transaction costs. Moreover, this even gives attackers the chance of having financial benefits by minting GasToken.
When Ether is sent, the receiving address can perform arbitrary computations that will eventually be paid by the sender of the transaction. According to the report, this is an already known vector for griefing. In the case of exchanges, if proper security measures are not taken into account, this might put the system at-risk as this ends up to be an attack vector.
Since the GasToken, takes advantage of the Ethereum refund mechanism, it allows users to store gas when the gas price is low and receive gas when the price is high. If an attacker is capable of minting large amounts of GasToken with ETH refunds, the griefing vector becomes a successful attack.
Because it was unknown which exchanges did and did not have the protections in place, the private disclosure was made to as many exchanges as possible, many of which were not at risk. To our knowledge, all affected exchanges that received the disclosure have patched the vulnerability.
This malicious attack can also be used to exploit other types of contracts. Examples of contracts that run code vulnerable to this attack include ERC721, ERC777, and ERC677 contracts with the functions transferAndCall(), send(), and safeTransferFrom() respectively.
The disclosure letter also left some recommendations on how to avoid this type of attack. Exchanges should consider implement rate limit and gas monitoring on withdrawal.
Contracts that implement ERC721, ERC777 and ERC677 should put restrictions on gas usage when making calls to unknown addresses. Alternatively, warnings should be coded out to alert when an unusually large amount of gas is being used.
Users should also implement reasonable gas limits on all transactions. All transactions should be closely monitored extraordinarily expensive transactions, to ensure that the user bears the cost.
Most withdrawals should be to user (non-contract) addresses and will take 21,000 gas (the minimum an Ethereum transaction can take). Withdrawals to contract addresses may take more gas, but it is easy to calculate the cost or either set an appropriate gas limit or charge the user accordingly.

'Brittany Runs a Marathon' director: Comedy must become 'more human' in 'woke' era
Brittany Runs a Marathon director Paul Downs Colaizzo has disagreed with Joker director Todd Phillips' recent comments claiming that "woke culture" has put an end to comedy.
Colaizzo, who is making his feature debut with the comedy-drama, said that funny movies simply need to be "a lot more empathetic and filled with compassion" in an era of increased scrutiny via social media.
Brittany star Jillian Bell added that she is "done with" the brand of comedy which punches down on those deemed to be different from the norm.

Phillips, who directed the Hangover trilogy before stepping up to helm the dark take on Batman's arch-nemesis, said last month that it's impossible to be funny in the modern world.
He told Vanity Fair: "There were articles written about why comedies don't work anymore — I'll tell you why, because all the f***ing funny guys are like: 'F*** this s***, because I don't want to offend you.'"

Colaizzo, however, told Yahoo Movies UK he believes the change in comedy is simply a reaction to the fact that the image of a straight white male is no longer the "spine of our culture".
He said: "As a world, I'm grateful for the fact that we're moving off of that. When that was the spine, anything off of that spine was considered funny.
"Making fun of somebody for their gender or their sexual orientation or their race was allowed because it was off of centre.
"Now that we're redefining what centre is, I think humour has to become a lot more human and a lot more empathetic and filled with compassion. I think it's totally possible and exciting to find the mix of those worlds."

Brittany Runs a Marathon follows the title character, played by Bell, as she pursues running in an attempt to improve her fitness after a doctor tells her she's at serious risk of health problems.
Jillian Bell portrays the lead role in comedy-drama 'Brittany Runs a Marathon'.
She takes a role as a pet-sitter and ends up living with fellow pet-sitter Jern (Pitch Perfect's Utkarsh Ambudkar) as they both try to piece their lives back together.
Bell said she is particularly annoyed by the prevalence in cinema and TV of easy jokes aimed at overweight people, with prosthetics often used to joke about how fat characters used to be.

"I'm so sick of that message," the 35-year-old 22 Jump Street star said. "I was so protective with Paul, and he was great about it too, about coming together and just saying: 'If she is making fun of herself or doing some kind of a joke, let's be careful of what we're doing'.
"We're both very protective of her. We've seen that before and I'm just done with it."

Brittany Runs a Marathon debuted to strong reviews at the Sundance Film Festival earlier this year, and Colaizzo thinks the movie's brand of comedy has appeal to modern viewers.
He said: "I think there's a whole generation of people that are interested in telling stories about people who are funny not because of what their identity is and not because they're different from what we consider powerful or alpha or the best, but because we're humans.
"It's humiliating to be a human and it's embarrassing to be a human and to want something. We can relate to each other while we still laugh.
"There's comedy everywhere. There's just not comedy in that narrow lane any more."
Brittany Runs a Marathon arrives in UK cinemas on 1 November, and on Amazon Prime Video from 15 November.

Q: How to change the BaudRate of SIM 7600EI while connecting with arduino UNO? I am working on an Arduino UNO based project that requires the SIM 7600EI module, but the problem is that the baud rate I want to work with is different than the baud rate of SIM 7600EI.
So how can I change the baud rate of SIM 7600EI.
I am using Arduino IDE for the coding part.

A: You would need to connect to the module using Serial interface other than the one used for the PC, depending on your board that would be either a second built-in interface like Serial1 or library supported interface like SoftSerial.

Serial - Arduino to PC
Serial1 - Arduino to SIM7600 module

At that point you should be able to negotiate with the module using the default baud rate set by the manufacturer.
Look for a simple serial interface echo sketch and use it to operate and query the module.
If you wish to change the serial speed you can send an AT command with desired value, check out AT+IPR in the datasheet.
