I wanted a DNA helix model to have at my vendor booth at the Texas State Genealogical Society conference where I will be discussing the Early Texans DNA Project and Genetic Genealogy in Practice written with Blaine. I wanted something classier than foam or styrofoam without spending hundreds of dollars.
I came up with this idea for wire and beads. I realized the four colors of beads I picked to represent the GCATs could be called Green, Cyan (blue), Amber, and Tangerine (orange) so the first letter of the color matches the DNA chemical names Guanine, Cytosine, Adenine, Thymine. So I decided to make it a real map of the first rungs of the DNA ladder for my mtDNA sequence. I added small wooden beads to represent the sugar and phosphate binding agents.
I still need to play with the twist but I think I am going to like using this at conferences and maybe even at institute courses! The helix is about three inches wide and twenty or so inches long. The size could be adapted using different sized beads and chains.

I am a genealogist. I have a strong compulsion to know my ancestors. I have given up most other activities to follow this compulsion for years now, giving up even more after becoming obsessed with genetic genealogy. So, I can empathize with someone whose brick wall is with their parents or grandparents, whereas my brick walls are deeper in my family tree.
I also recognize that I am my own person; a product of my upraising and my experiences in life. My genes were passed down by my ancestors, but not their deeds. I am not doomed because of the bad things they did. My karma isn't influenced by the good things they did. I make my own destiny. I know who my father is, but he had little to do with the person I am, having divorced Mom when I was only two-years old. I grew up in a household with no father. I grew up in a house with no grandfather; my grandmother was also divorced. I never felt that I missed anything due to the lack of men in my childhood even though this was a rare circumstance in the 1950s and 1960s. My character was strongly influenced by my mother and my other matrilineal line ancestors in the photo below. They passed on the idea that I should consider the feelings of others as well as right and wrong when making decisions.
Too often today, in all areas of our lives, some have the idea that their way of looking at things is the only valid way and the way of the "truth." But there are no hard and fast rules. Ideas of right and wrong change over time, in different cultures, and with new experiences. My pre-teen and teen years encompassed enough of the 1960s for me to remember the teachings of tolerance and idealism. I may not respect all of the beliefs of others that are different from my own, but I respect their right to have those beliefs. What I can never respect is one person's right to force their beliefs on others.
Family is so much more than a blood relationship or shared genes.
One thing that impresses me with Griffeth's story is his understanding that our ancestors are people just like us, with shortcomings and imperfections, as well as honor. As much as he wanted to know the story of his biological father, he did not press his mother when he saw she was reluctant to discuss what she saw as a mistake she had made. He had empathy for his mother's feelings.
This struck me as so different from the sentiments I often hear expressed today. While I have sympathy for any person who does not know their immediate ancestors and wants to know, I also empathize with the men who were told no one would ever know they were a sperm donor, the women who were told no one would ever know they gave their child up for adoption, or the women who had a moment of indiscretion or a great love affair that resulted in them giving birth to a child whose biological father is not the one named on the birth certificate. In an earlier time, the accepted cultural mores meant never being "outed."
Yes, things have changed today, but many of us continue to believe in the morals we were raised with (or that we may have tortured ourselves with for years as we explored new philosophies). For those on all sides of the unknown parentage triangle who look forward to contact, I am happy for them. For those who do not, I have trouble accepting that any person should be forced to confess or accept something they may have tried to forget or that may cause them pain.
Knowing your medical history is important. Modern DNA tests can provide a lot of information. All of the health history revealed by my DNA tests just confirmed what I already knew from analyzing the death certificates of family members. Without those death certificates I could learn that information from my DNA test.
Not everyone feels the need to force a meeting with biological parents. Griffeth's book describes his acceptance. Some in my own family do not know the identity of their fathers or learned the identity after becoming an adult. One family member who contributed DNA for my family study said, "I don't really care one way or the other whether I learn who my father was. I know who my family is."
Context and empathy are required when researching all types of records. Census, court records, and many others can reveal just as much as a DNA test can reveal about a family secret. Time may lessen the impact of learning of unexpected events in the lives of our ancestors. I am much more careful with twentieth-century court records that reveal children born to unmarried parents than I am of the eighteenth-century "bastardy bonds." I would never apply that terminology to events in recent decades, but it is an historical term that genealogists use without thought for events in the far past. Context. Empathy. Time.
We should be willing to accept that not everyone else believes as we do. In my opinion, forcing anyone to confront an issue he or she is not ready to handle is wrong. Consider the consequences of an action on others before forcing an issue. Good philosophies to follow include the golden rule, "do unto others as you would have them do unto you;" the silver rule, "do nothing to others you would not have done to you;" and the Navajo saying about "walking a mile in the other guy's moccasins."3 Respect.
My colleague Karen Stanbary, CG, who is also a Licensed Clinical Social Worker cautions, "most adoption stories come from a place of profound pain or shame or both for the biological mother, and sometimes the father, too. We all have our own skill sets and defenses against pain and shame. Each person is unique in how much time and support one requires to be ready to take on the risk of additional pain or shame. One size never fits all."

Finally!! The National Genealogical Society (NGS) announces Genetic Genealogy in Practice is available. A "Learn more" information link at http://www.ngsgenealogy.org/cs/home leads to the order page which is now working.
I hope this book helps genealogists use DNA to solve genealogical problems as much as we believe it will. This is the book I wish I had when I started learning genetic genealogy.
Working with Blaine T. Bettinger was a fantastic experience. It was amazing how often we agreed on exactly how to handle each topic and unanticipated event during the writing, editing, and production process. Being in agreement with Blaine always boosts my confidence level in a conclusion. Each of us wrote some chapters then we passed the chapters back and forth making changes until we were both happy with the end-product. We had well-known genetic genealogists review the text and exercises then worked with a fabulous editor. The analysis techniques and methodology in the book should remain valid for a long time. Only a few items may change in the near future, such as when one of the testing companies changes their match algorithms or thresholds. The basic techniques will remain valid by incorporating any modified information.
We worked diligently to include all of the information needed to get started with genetic genealogy, expand your knowledge beyond the beginner level, and test your understanding using exercises based on real-life cases. The answers are in the back of the book along with an explanation of the reasoning leading to that answer. We integrate the genetic analysis with genealogical analysis. Some of the information is beginner level, some is more difficult to challenge intermediate and advanced practitioners. Some concepts have not been written about much until now.
You can learn more about the book and the process from our interview with Jane Wilcox of the "forget-me-not hour" podcast.

Ferrari Hits Back At Gloomy Remainer Who Says Price Of Stilton Will Double
16 January 2017, 08:02 | Updated: 16 January 2017, 08:24
This Remainer told Nick Ferrari that if Britain leaves the single market, the price of Stilton would double. But Nick Ferrari was having none of it.
Peter Wilding, one of two claimants challenging Theresa May's bid to start the process to take Britain out of the European Union, claimed that the taxes put on our exports after Brexit meant that the price of stilton would double.
When Nick asked him why people should care about the single market, he said: "Jobs and money. 44% of our exports go to the single market. So if we're out of it, what is going to be replaced with?
"A lot of our trade goes to Europe, the single market is where that trade goes.
"If we are out in the market, the price of Stilton will go up 100% because that's the tax, that's the tariff that will be put on cheese."
But Nick wasn't about to accept what he felt was scaremongering, stating: "I don't know why you are necessarily so gloomy.
"I don't know, perhaps you've been hanging out with George Osborne again, but effectively the world has come to an end then?"

Tetrachlorphthalsäureanhydrid ist eine chemische Verbindung aus der Gruppe der substituierten Carbonsäureanhydride.

Gewinnung und Darstellung
Tetrachlorphthalsäureanhydrid kann durch direkte Chlorierung von Phthalsäureanhydrid in einem organischen Lösungsmittel dargestellt werden. Nimmt man die Chlorierung in rauchender Schwefelsäure mit Iod als Katalysator vor, so entsteht als Zwischenprodukt 3,6-Dichlorphthalsäureanhydrid.

Eigenschaften
Tetrachlorphthalsäureanhydrid ist ein brennbarer farbloser Feststoff, der in Form von Prismen oder Nadeln vorliegt. Er ist praktisch unlöslich in kaltem Wasser und geht in heißem Wasser in Tetrachlorphthalsäure über. Durch Reaktion von Tetrachlorphthalsäureanhydrid mit Aminen entstehen Tetrachlorphthalimide, die als Schutzgruppe für Amine in der Kohlenhydrat- und Aminosäure-Chemie dienen.

Verwendung
Tetrachlorphthalsäureanhydrid wird als flammhemmender Zusatz in Anstrichmitteln verwendet. Es ist ein Ausgangsstoff zur Herstellung von Tetrachlorphthalat-Harzen, Fungiziden, Gummi, Weichmachern, unentflammbaren Wachsen, Kunststoffen und Schmiermitteln. Außerdem ist es ein Härtungskatalysator für Gießmassen aus Aminoplastharzen und Epoxidharzen. Es wird auch zur Herstellung von Phthalocyaninen, Xanthen-Farbstoffen, Isoindolinon- oder Chinophthalon-Pigmenten verwendet und wird auch in Farbfiltern für Flüssigkristallanzeigen, in lithographischen Druckplatten sowie zur Herstellung tetrafluorierter Phthal- und Benzoesäure-Derivate eingesetzt.

Dr. Fauci 'Would Not Be Surprised' if Omicron COVID Variant Is Already in the United States
The Omicron COVID-19 variant could already be in the United States, according to Dr. Anthony Fauci.
"I would not be surprised if it is," Fauci, 80, told Peter Alexander and Kristen Welker Saturday on Weekend Today.
Fauci said the strain — currently known as B.1.1.529 — "has a large number of mutations" particularly affecting the virus' ability to bind to cells in the nose and lung.
"We have not detected it yet [in the U.S.]," he added, "but when you have a virus that is showing this degree of transmissibility and you're already having travel-related cases that they've noted in Israel and Belgium and in other places — when you have a virus like this, it almost invariably is ultimately going to go essentially all over."
RELATED: New COVID Variant Inspires CDC Meeting, Impacts European Travel: 'Most Worrying We've Seen'
Based on mutations identified by researchers, Fauci said the strain "likely will be more transmissible" than others, including the highly transmissible Delta variant. "We don't know that yet," he noted in the interview, "but you have to assume that would be the case."
Fauci also raised concern over whether the new variant "could evade the protection" of key treatments such as monoclonal antibodies and convalescent plasma for those who have contracted and recovered from COVID-19 — "and possibly vaccine(s)."
"These are all maybes, but the suggestion is enough," Fauci shared.

The Omicron variant has spread rapidly through South Africa after it was first discovered in Botswana. The strain, which has now made its way to Europe, prompted a World Health Organization panel meeting on Friday, where the variant received its name and was classified as a highly transmissible "variant of concern."
In response, President Joe Biden announced that travelers from eight South African countries will be prohibited from entering the U.S. beginning Monday.
RELATED: Child COVID Cases Are Up 32% in the Last 2 Weeks as Infections Spike Nationwide
On Weekend Today, Fauci emphasized the importance of getting ahead of the virus while possible, which he said is why the country is already taking precautions.
"Even though the numbers are relatively small, its ability to infect people who have recovered from infection and even people who have been vaccinated make us say, 'This is something you've got to pay really close attention to and be prepared for something that's serious,'" the nation's leading infectious disease expert explained.
Blocking travel from countries with reported cases, Fauci added, allows experts more time to assess the situation. "The issue of blocking travel from a given country is to just give us time to assess it better," he noted.
In the meantime, the chief medical advisor to President Biden urged Americans to get vaccinated against the deadly virus and not let their guard down in "congregate settings" where the virus can be increasingly transmissible.

According to Weekend Today, cases of COVID-19 are up at least 10% over the last two weeks in at least 15 states, largely in the Eastern portion of the country. More than 100,000 cases are being reported each day.
RELATED: FDA Approves COVID Booster Shots for All Americans Age 18 and Up
Fauci also said the country's fate "is in our own hands," adding that the Omicron variant "is yet again another reason" for Americans to protect themselves against COVID-19.
"It is absolutely essential that unvaccinated people get vaccinated and the vaccinated people get boosters," urged Fauci. "We know now clearly that when you get a booster shot ... you dramatically increase the level of protection [you have]."

What Is an Energy Pathway?
Before we move on to discussing alternative ways to open vital pathways of energy to promote healing, let's first define exactly what an energetic pathway is. The Chinese call these pathways Meridians; I think the best way to 'get the picture', is to think of the electrical wiring in our homes.
Every light bulb or appliance has got to be somehow wired into the electrical juice so that when the switch is flipped, the bulb lights up or the appliance switches on. Too much energy may result in a blown out fuse or something worse!
When that happens it indicates that there is an obstruction somewhere along the wiring and in place of the normal electrical distribution we have blockages that backfire or blowout rather than conduct an even flow of currency. To the other side, when there is too little juice we will not have light much less a hot cup of coffee!
Given a problem like this, unless there is a simple 'fix' or a competent 'fixer' in the house, the electrician is called upon and they usually sort the problem out in a jiffy as well as speedily produce the invoice for said services!
Energy Pathways or Meridians, exist on the Earth and ALL living things.
These pathways exist everywhere and are clearly identified on any living organism. It was defined by nature. Once precisely located, and blockages detected, the stimulation of the meridian restores natures original exegetics'.
The word 'meridian' may not be familiar to most of you. This term is used to describe the Energy Pathways by Acupuncturists and practitioners of Oriental Medicine. They understand that a meridian is a pathway along which vital energy is believed to flow. To the Chinese, this flow of bodily energy is known as 'chi' or 'qi' and is pronounced "chee".
The West was a little slow introducing the benefits of acupuncture & acupressure, however, we now recognize their effectiveness to alleviate many ailments common to man and animal.
Here in the West we've developed methods of treating the pathways that are less invasive and as simple as applying 'light' via a small hand-held LED. This light is used on the surface of the skin or animal hide and assists the opening of the blocked meridians and encourages the flow of energy to the impaired organ or wound for the purposes of healing.
Those studied in the treatment of canine, equine or human healing arts are first to say that they all share commonalities so that learning to treat the pathways of one mammal is as easy as learning to treat them all. It's a matter of locating the meridian and then diagnosing exactly where its blocked, excessive or deficient.
This is the end of Lesson 1. I've included a link to some amazing books, charts and software below. Enjoy!

text: Q: Media controls not working on boot in Android 11+ I made a simple media player app that plays audio streams from the URLs. It has a button to play and pause the audio. I also added media controls at the push notification area with a button to play and pause the audio. I've test the app on different Android versions, and the media controls works as expected. But if I reboot the device, and open the app immediately. The media controls stops working for several minutes, clicking the button does not play or pause the audio. This only happens on Android versions 11 and above. It works fine on Android 10 and below. I guess Google has changed the media controls behavior since Android 11. I've tried to add the RECEIVE_BOOT_COMPLETED permission and BOOT_COMPLETED receiver intent-filter action in the AndroidManifest, but this still does not fix the issue. Can someone help me to understand the new implementation of the media controls?

Application of Gas-Liquid Chromatography to the Analysis of Essential Oils
NJ Milchard et al.
As a part of a collaborative study, samples of the six oils together with the NC-hydrocarbon mixture were distributed to members of the subcommittee (of the analytical methods committee, RSC, London) with instructions to prepare a standard fingerprint chromatogram of each of the oils using a methyl polysiloxane non-polar capillary column. Details of the NC-hydrocarbon mixture and its application are given in Part XVII.1 Each member was asked to submit the chromatograms of the oils and one of the NC-hydrocarbon mixture run at the beginning and at the end of the series. The latter was to ensure that the characteristics of the column did not change during the exercise.
A total of 36 chromatograms were received, along with the retention times and percentage relative peak areas (area %) and values from the flame ionization detector (FID) for each detected peak. The identities of the components of interest, usually those accounting for more than 1% of the total peak area, were confirmed by two different laboratories using capillary gas chromatography/ mass spectrometry (GC/MS) with identities determined by comparison with in-house and commercial mass spectral libraries. The relative retention index (RRI) of each peak of interest was calculated relative to the n-alkane series of hydrocarbons run under identical conditions and used to cross-check the peak identities. The g-pack values were calculated for each column used.
It was noted that 1,8-cineole and limonene were not completely resolved on the methyl polysiloxane non-polar column at certain relative concentrations. In these cases, the oils were examined on a polar column and the relative proportions were used to determine their contents on the non-polar column.

You may have read in the news that the Kansas Department of Revenue, or KDOR, had notified online retailers that state officials expected them to register and begin collecting and remitting sales tax on sales to Kansas residents.
The issue of the collection of online sales taxes has been roiling the Statehouse since at least 2003 when the legislature passed a bill giving KDOR the authority to collect sales tax from out-of-state retailers. The law has not been enforced until now because U.S. Supreme Court decisions had found that the states could not do so.
Since 1992, the Supreme Court decision in Quill v North Dakota established that sales taxes could only be required if the retailer had a physical nexus in the state. In other words, a state could require LL Bean to collect online sales taxes for the state only if LL Bean had a store in the state. But now a 2018 Supreme Court case, South Dakota v Wayfair, has changed all that. The Court has now determined that a physical nexus is not necessary; the retailers have an "economic" nexus in the state – essentially just sales in the state.
Many states have been enacting a sales threshold under which online retailers would be required to collect and remit sales tax to the state. South Dakota, for example, set a threshold of $100,000 in sales or 200 transactions before the requirement applied to the retailer. But the Supreme Court case did not set such a requirement.
The Kansas legislature in the 2019 session passed a bill that would have set such a threshold for Kansas but the bill was vetoed by Governor Laura Kelly because it also included large tax cuts for corporations which would have harmed the state's ability to fund the newly-passed school finance bill. Had the threshold bill been stand-alone legislation, she would likely have signed it but conservatives in the legislature apparently decided the only way to get their massive corporate tax cuts passed was to tie the two issues into one bill.
Since the Wayfair case did not establish a test for when retailers could be required to collect and remit sales tax, the KDOR notified online retailers that the state would now begin enforcing the 2003 law. This law was established primarily to protect in-state retailers. Making in-state retailers collect the sales tax while out-of-state retailers do not, creates an economic disadvantage for Kansas-owned businesses. The KDOR decision, based on the 2003 law and now allowed under the Wayfair decision, evens the playing field for in-state retailers.
Conservative, anti-Kelly legislators called for an Attorney General's opinion as to whether or not the Governor and the Secretary of Revenue had overstepped their authority despite the fact that they voted FOR the bill establishing thresholds and allegedly support "leveling the playing field" for in-state retailers. Kansas Attorney General Derek Schmidt recently issued his opinion, siding with the conservative legislators. Governor Kelly has released a response to the AG's opinion in which she says, "Department of Revenue believes that enforcing the existing law is legally required and that it levels the playing field for Kansas businesses. The Attorney General's opinion stretches legal analysis in a way that puts Kansas businesses at a disadvantage." The full response follows.
Response to the AG's Opinion on Notice 19-04 and the Wayfair Decision
As you may have seen, the Attorney General issued an opinion in regard to the Kansas Department of Revenue's Notice 19-04, which notified out-of-state businesses that the department intended to begin to collect sales tax on online purchases, as required by Kansas law and allowed under federal law in response to the Wayfair decision from the U.S. Supreme Court.
The Wayfair opinion changed the landscape for collecting these taxes in the United States. Department of Revenue believes that enforcing the existing law is legally required and that it levels the playing field for Kansas businesses. The Attorney General's opinion stretches legal analysis in a way that puts Kansas businesses at a disadvantage.
The legal decision and details
Kansas law gave the Department of Revenue the authority to collect sales tax from out-of-state retailers in 2003, under the restriction that those collections be allowed by federal law.
The U.S. Supreme Court had previously determined that it was a violation of the federal constitution to tax such retailers, so Kansas didn't enforce the tax, even though it was in statute.
Last year, the U.S. Supreme Court handed down a decision in South Dakota v Wayfair that established the right of states to collect sales tax on out-of-state retailers.
Because of that decision, the restriction in Kansas law was removed and the department was required to begin to enforce Kansas law as written, even if the Kansas law doesn't have the details in it that South Dakota's does.
What it means for Kansas
For the past 29 years there has been overwhelming support for tax fairness between out-of-state retailers and Kansas businesses.
Since the Wayfair decision, more than 3,200 out-of-state businesses have registered with the state to collect and pay taxes due and owed; 588 of those out-of-state businesses have registered since August 1, when the notice was published.
The KDOR notice simply implements law that has overwhelmingly passed: collecting tax that is owed and leveling the playing field between in-state and out-of-state retailers.
Wayfair did not establish a minimum threshold. Some states are reconsidering their decision to implement thresholds.

Valuing Cementos Pacasmayo SAA ADR stock is incredibly difficult, and any metric has to be viewed as part of a bigger picture of Cementos Pacasmayo SAA ADR's overall performance. However, analysts commonly use some key metrics to help gauge the value of a stock.
Cementos Pacasmayo SAA ADR's P/E ratio
Cementos Pacasmayo SAA ADR's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over a 12-month period gives a "trailing price/earnings ratio" of roughly 10x. In other words, Cementos Pacasmayo SAA ADR shares trade at around 10x recent earnings.
That's relatively low compared to, say, the trailing 12-month P/E ratio for the NASDAQ 100 at the end of 2019 (27.29). The low P/E ratio could mean that investors are pessimistic about the outlook for the shares or simply that they're under-valued.
Cementos Pacasmayo SAA ADR's PEG ratio
Cementos Pacasmayo SAA ADR's "price/earnings-to-growth ratio" can be calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its growth – to give 1.13. A low ratio can be interpreted as meaning the shares offer better value, while a higher ratio can be interpreted as meaning the shares offer worse value.
The PEG ratio provides a broader view than just the P/E ratio, as it gives more insight into Cementos Pacasmayo SAA ADR's future profitability. By accounting for growth, it could also help you if you're comparing the share prices of multiple high-growth companies.
Cementos Pacasmayo SAA ADR's EBITDA

Cementos Pacasmayo SAA ADR share dividends
Dividend payout ratio: 91.03% of net profits
Recently Cementos Pacasmayo SAA ADR has paid out, on average, around 91.03% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 10.06% of the current stock value. This means that over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Cementos Pacasmayo SAA ADR shareholders could enjoy a 10.06% return on their shares, in the form of dividend payments. In Cementos Pacasmayo SAA ADR's case, that would currently equate to about $0 per share.
Cementos Pacasmayo SAA ADR's payout ratio would broadly be considered high, and as such this stock could appeal to those looking to generate an income. Bear in mind however that companies should normally also look to re-invest a decent amount of net profits to ensure future growth.
Cementos Pacasmayo SAA ADR's most recent dividend payout was on 14 December 2022. The latest dividend was paid out to all shareholders who bought their shares by 15 November 2022 (the "ex-dividend date").
Have Cementos Pacasmayo SAA ADR's shares ever split?
Cementos Pacasmayo SAA ADR's shares were split on a 717:899 basis on 2 March 2017. So if you had owned 899 shares the day before before the split, the next day you'd have owned 717 shares. This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Cementos Pacasmayo SAA ADR shares – just the quantity. However, indirectly, the new 25.4% higher share price could have impacted the market appetite for Cementos Pacasmayo SAA ADR shares which in turn could have impacted Cementos Pacasmayo SAA ADR's share price.
Cementos Pacasmayo SAA ADR share price volatility

Q: Derivatives - Basic Question Can two different functions have the same derivative?
Given two function D[f[x],x] = D[y[x],x]
Must f[x] = y[x]?
Can there be no other possibility?

A: You can have two different functions with the same derivative, but they must differ by a constant.  That is,

Let $f,g:\mathbb R\to \mathbb R$ be differentiable functions. If for all $x$: $\frac{d}{dx}f(x)=\frac{d}{dx}g(x)$, then $$f(x)=g(x)+C$$ for some constant $C\in\mathbb R$

This follows from the fact that $f(x)-g(x)$ is constant (over any open interval) if and only if $\frac{d}{dx}(f(x)-g(x))=0$.

A: Consider any differentiable function $h(x)$ and then look at
$$
f(x):=h(x)+C_1, y(t):=h(t)+C_2
$$

He spoke in tongues. Complete and utter babble is its only true description. The never approaching cul-de-sac of words and cliché chorus. And he'd speak them while waving cups full of tea through flailing arms – as if active at a podium – and it'd cause a shiver up her spine every time she would hear the faint thump of liquid hitting the cream toned carpet. Thump. Stain.
Are you prepared for death, friend? She asked this while lifting his legs to sweep away bits of bread and half-chewed pills and tiny balls of paper, formed when he'd tear strips from the newspaper and roll them up in his tongue, and then tried to spit or lob them into the open fire, but he didn't have the energy to win. Even against his own self he'd lose. She'd ask this often, because it was an important question, but at no time in her recent memory had he understood or took notice.
Startled by his fluidity and senses, she knew now was the time to approach his soul. She asked him was he ready and he said he was. Running blood; it's a finite feature.
He lay stretched in the chair, kicked off and away his slippers, and adjusted the elastic on his pants which had tightened around a swollen stomach. She pressed it firmly against him and put a bullet through his temple.

Wi-Fi seems to be a real issue for some sites, it never runs right or not enough security or bandwidth etc. The problem is most Wi-Fi service is driven from the broadband router, like a two-in-one package usually its stuck in a cupboard or basement giving little or no chance to getting a good signal where it's needed. We use business grade Access Points such as the D-Link four-aerial twin frequency (2.4 Ghz and 5Ghz) for both penetration of old buildings and coverage.
If you need better Wi-Fi then do get in touch. You can even install your own Wi-Fi Access Point (AP) all we need is the fixed IP address you want it to be on plus the IP address of your existing Broadband Router.

CHEICK TIOTE has passed away at the age of 30 - but Newcastle fans will remember this goal forever.
The Ivorian spent seven years on Tyneside, only joining Chinese second tier club Beijing Enterprises in February of this year.
During that time the defensive midfielder was a popular figure with the St James' Park faithful, but he only scored once goal.
However, that strike was one of the most memorable in Premier League history, an 87th minute sumptuous volley against Arsenal to complete a comeback from 4-0 down at half-time to draw 4-4.
Reports from China say that the midfielder collapsed in training today and subsequently died in hospital.

One of the most successful and popular of all diet meal replacement home delivery programs in the last forty years or so is Nutrisystem. Starting life in the 1970s as a store based provider of diet plans, they moved to mail order and then to Internet based online diets for people who had little time for the more conventional kind of dieting systems.
They now provide customers with a package of ready to go meals that in most cases just need reheating in a microwave oven to free them from the time consuming and hassle that go into regular diets.
To get the most information from a variety of sources, it is always a good idea to read a selection of reviews of Nutrisystem and websites that specialize in this company's product, such as this one in particular: https://nstuf.com. This way you can get a fuller understanding of what is on offer and what you can realistically come to expect when you sign up for one of their weight loss programs.
The concise explanation is that you get to choose from a selection of specially tailored plans that are grouped for either men or women and then sub grouped into diet plans for vegetarians, diabetics, those over 65 and then everyone else. These plans can be further customized by the customer to suit their individual tastes, so if there are items on the plan's menu they particularly do not like, it is a simple matter of contacting their customer support and making the amendments to their order.
What you get when the package arrives on your doorstep is a full 28 days worth of meals. You get three meals per day, which are breakfast, lunch and evening meal with a dessert plus two additional small snack bars that are useful for eating between meals in case you get hungry and tempted to reach for any unhealthy snacks you may have lying around the house. The meals are calorie and portion controlled, while being nutritionally balanced and healthy so far as any diet that is made up of mainly processed foods can be.
The food quality is passable but do not go expecting gourmet meals from this company. Around thirty percent of the order is made up of fresh frozen meals which are of higher quality than the rest, but you will have to get used to eating mostly processed meals that are okay as long as you don't have fussy tastes.
The choices are extremely wide and varied with something like over 180 main meals to choose from. This is great if you have tried diets before and found them boring with little variation.
With this program you can literally eat a different meal every day, so you'll never get bored. It's a fact that getting bored with a diet is one of the primary reasons people quit early before seeing any real benefit, so choosing the right diet with lots of variation in the food is important. With this plan, you are far more likely to see it all the way through and enjoy all the benefits of losing weight easily because you stuck to the diet!
The cost is the real attraction of this convenient diet meal delivery plan. It comes in much cheaper than rival companies such as Jenny Craig, Bistro MD, Diet-to-Go, Medifast and eDiets so is very affordable for most people. The best part is that because the food they provide completely replaces your regular food, you literally do not need to go to the store and buy any food for yourself.
So what you should do is calculate what you would ordinarily spend on food for the entire 28 days and take that away from what your Nutrisystem plan is costing you. Most people find the price to be about the same, meaning they are actually getting the diet for free (the same price as their regular food). Some people find they spend more on food than the Nutrisystem diet costs, so they even make a saving while losing weight!
If this is a diet plan that appeals to you, the company is easy to contact via their official website at Nutrisystem.com or by telephone toll free on 1-800-435-4074. Check their website to confirm that number is up to date.

Clinical validation of a new algorithm for computerized dosing of vitamin K antagonist therapy: a retrospective simulation study Academic Article
The number of patients on oral anticoagulant therapy has increased in recent years, and this trend is expected to continue. The increased workload for physicians has led to the development of computerized systems to make organizational workflow more efficient. These programs may include algorithms to propose a weekly dosage and timing for the following visit. Before introducing a new algorithm in clinical practice, its safety and efficacy must be validated. We undertook a retrospective simulation study to test a new algorithm for the TAOnet system. The main outcome was the percentage of concordant and discordant proposals between manual- and algorithm-based prescriptions. Pairs of computerized and physician prescriptions were assessed. They were categorized as 0.1-5, 5.1-10 and >10% if the dose was different, and assigned as "algorithm better" or "manual better" dependent upon the subsequent international normalized ratio value. In 61.0% of cases, the manual and computerized weekly dosage assignments were identical; in 15.3% of cases, the difference was between 0.1 and 5%; in 14.7 of cases, it was between 5.1 and 10%; and in 9.0% of cases, it was >10%. The algorithm did better in 43.9% of discordant pairs, generally due to less frequent under-dosing. In conclusion, the new algorithm proved to consistently overlap with the manual method. The algorithm is useful but must be tested in a multi-center, prospective, interventional study.

I'm always looking for great non-traditional wedding cakes – something out of the ordinary and unique.
I think today's cake fits that description.
Now, when I think about bundt cakes I think about birthday cakes with chocolate glaze drizzled on the cake. I have never thought about a bundt wedding cake. Until now.
I love the simplicity of this cake – there's no muss, no fuss. It just a two-tier bundt cake frosted with simple white icing drizzled down the sides.
This cake would be ideal for an informal reception, a small outdoor wedding, or even a shabby chic themed reception. If you want to keep it simple yet beautiful this is the cake for you.
And since bundt cakes have no middle to speak of I love the use of succulents to fill that hole at the top. I imagine it would also be lovely filled with bright fall flowers, like sunflowers.
We found this great bundt cake here.
It was created by Nothing Bundt Cakes.

Q: Basics of "Concept of relation" and "less than equal to" Let R be a relation defined on set of natural numbers N such that x is related to y iff x is less than equal to y i.e xRy iff x $\le$ y .Now I can understand this relation is reflexive and transitive but not symmetric but I want to ask whether (5,6) belongs to relation R ? If yes then it means 5 is less than equal to 6 as well as 5 is less than 6 simultaneously? So what is the proper mathematical meaning of " less than equal to"

A: In Mathematics the word "or" is inclusive.
$$ x \le y \iff (x<y ) or (x=y)$$
That means if x is less than y, we can say x is less than or equal y.
Also if x=y we can say x is less than or equal y.
Thus if one component is true, the compound statement will also  be true.
Yes, (5,6) belongs to the relation because the component 5<6 is true.

A: The symbol $\leq $ means "less than or equal to" and is satisfied if "is less than" or  "is equal to" is true.

A: This might help:
If $x\le 6$ is true, means that no necessarily $x=6$.
Or, If $x\le 6$ is true, means that no necessarily $x<6$.

A: The mathematical relation of "less than or equal to" ($\leq$) for any two numbers $a,b \in \mathbb{R}$ is defined as $a \leq b$ if and only if $a < b$ or $a = b$. Utilising logic here, we can see that the $\textbf{or}$ means that at least one of the statements is true, i.e either $a < b$ or $a = b$.

Q: Unable to bind data to DropDownList I am binding XML values to a DropDownList. Below is my code:
protected void LoadDropdown()
{
     DataSet ds = new DataSet();
     ds.ReadXml (Server.MapPath(@"XMLFile1.xml"));

     DropDownList1.DataTextField = "country_Id";
     DropDownList1.DataSource = ds;
     DropDownList1.DataBind();
     DropDownList1.Items.Insert(0,new ListItem(" Select ","0"));
}

I want to get country names in the DropDownList, but I am getting id values like 0,1,2,3. What am I doing wrong?

A: Try specifying something else for the DataTextField:
DropDownList1.DataTextField = "country_Name"; //This value depends on what your XML structure is.
DropDownList1.DataValueField = "country_Id";

A: if you xml looks like this
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>

<Items>
<Item ddlValue="1" ddlText="YourlistItem1" />
<Item ddlValue="2" ddlText="YourlistItem2" />
<Item ddlValue="3" ddlText="YourlistItem3" />
</Items>

your code behind for your dropdownlist should be
protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    DataSet ddlDataSource = new DataSet();
    ddlDataSource.ReadXml(MapPath("XmlFile.xml"));
    DropDownList1.DataSource = ddlDataSource;
    DropDownList1.DataBind();
}

Hope this helps.

A: I found the solution for my problem.
protected void LoadDropdown()
    {
        DataSet ds = new DataSet();
        ds.ReadXml(Server.MapPath(@"XMLFile1.xml"));
        DropDownList1.DataTextField = "name";
        DropDownList1.DataSource = ds;
        DropDownList1.DataBind();
        DropDownList1.Items.Insert(0, new ListItem(" Select ", "0"));
    }


Corsi's collection arrived in Oxford to much publicity and was housed in purpose-built cases in the University's science library. When the library moved to the new Museum of Natural History, the collection came too, but it was left neglected in a gloomy upper gallery. The collection was rescued from obscurity by the combined efforts of Henry Miers, the new Professor of Mineralogy, and Mary Porter, a gifted young volunteer.
When word reached Oxford that student Stephen Jarrett had been successful in his bid to buy Faustino Corsi's collection of decorative stones for the University, Dr William Buckland was quick to circulate a press release. During February, March and April 1827, announcements appeared in journals as diverse as The British Critic, Quarterly Theological Review and Ecclesiastical Record; The London Literary Gazette and Journal of Belles Lettres, Arts, Sciences, etc; The Gentleman's Magazine and Historical Chronicle; The Christian Remembrancer; the New Monthly Magazine and Literary Journal; and Jarrett's family's local newspaper, the Bath Chronicle and Weekly Gazette1.
The collection arrived in Oxford in November 1827. Initially, it was suggested that it should be displayed in the picture gallery at Christ Church, the college where Buckland was Canon. However Buckland considered the lighting to be too poor for viewing the samples and proposed instead the Radcliffe library, a science library for the use of Members of the University2. The Trustees of the Library approved the construction of two new display cases to house it. For the next 25 years, the stones were displayed in the beautiful domed Radcliffe Camera, one of the highlights mentioned in guidebooks of the time. The cases are shown in an etching of the library interior in the University Almanack for 1835.
The two Corsi cases in the Radcliffe Library from the University of Oxford Almanack of 1835.
As early as 1831, the Keeper of the Ashmolean Museum, James Duncan expressed his support for the idea that the Corsi specimens should be sliced in two and half the samples to be given to the British Museum3. However he pointed out that both the University and the benefactor, Stephen Jarrett, might have reservations about any such scheme. In his letter to Charles Konig, Keeper of Mineralogy, Duncan also expressed his belief that the entire collection should be given to that institution in order that it should be seen by larger numbers of visitors; evidently he was keen to ingratiate himself with the London museum. The Radcliffe Librarian, George Williams did not offer any support to Duncan and Konig, and the scheme was dropped.
Again, in 1899, the great marble hunter William Brindley proposed to take slices from the specimens4. In exchange for the slices, he would produce a book of illustrations, and he had a plate of verde antico made as an example. This evidently did not have the support of University authorities, and the specimens remained intact.
In 1855, the University introduced a new Natural Sciences degree, and in response to pressure for a building that would bring together all the science collections, teaching and research into a single building, work commenced on the construction of the new Oxford Museum. The fine neo-Gothic building, with its glass-roofed courtyard, opened in 1860. The Radcliffe library books were transferred to new rooms along the front of the Museum. Corsi's collection was placed in its cases on the Museum's rather gloomy upper gallery; effectively abandoned by the library, yet not part of the Museum's collections either. The architect Sir George Aitchison wrote in 1884 that it was, 'needing cleaning and new labels. It was in the upper gallery inconvenient to students and visitors'5. He wrote at least two letters pointing this out to Sir Henry Acland, the Radcliffe Librarian.
Three events were to rescue the Corsi collection from a downward spiral of neglect. The first was the appointment of Henry Miers as the first full-time professor of Mineralogy at the University. Miers was a gifted scientist, curator and administrator, who had studied classics as an undergraduate at Oxford. It seems he quickly took the Corsi collection in hand, searching out all the blocks that had gone missing (some of which had reportedly been used as door stops), and finding out more about the specimens. He sought the opinions of William Brindley, the leading expert on marbles of his time, writing in November 1899, '... I am anxious to make this collection one of real use as a reference series'6. Brindley was one of the major suppliers of stone of his time and was responsible for rediscovering and reopening a number of ancient quarries.
The second event, in 1901 was the opening of a new Radcliffe science library next to the Museum. When the books moved out, Corsi's collection was left behind, to at last become officially a part of the Museum's collections. It was clearly a very welcome addition to Miers's area of responsibility.
The third event was the arrival in Oxford of a teenager with a particular interest in decorative stone. Mary Winearls Porter had spent some years in Rome while her father had been a Times reporter there, and had met Giacomo Boni and Conte Gnoli, archaeologists working on excavations of the Roman Forum who had fired her enthusiasm for coloured stone7. Moving to Oxford, she already knew about the Corsi collection. Miers, quick to spot her interest and talent, set her to work, translating Corsi's Catalogo ragionato into English, and reorganising the collection for new displays. A geological arrangement according to the system of George Merrill8, used in the Smithsonian Institution in Washington, was considered most appropriate.
Mary Porter's interest in the collection grew, and her research notes rediscovered in the 1990s show that she had spent considerable time identifying the coloured marbles used in the churches, colleges and public buildings of Oxford. She started contacting stone suppliers to build the Museum's decorative stone collections, getting many of the samples cut to the same dimensions as those of Corsi. As she learnt more about ancient marbles, she drew together her researches in a small book called What Rome was built with9.
Under the tuition of Henry Miers, Mary Porter started to study crystallography, and following Miers's departure to the University of London, little further work was carried out on the Corsi collection for several decades. Despite requisition of the Museum for troops use during the Second World War, the stones remained safe.
After some years carrying out crystallographic research in Germany and the USA, Mary Porter returned to Oxford in the 1960s as a Research Fellow of Lady Margaret Hall. Once again, she found time to work on the decorative stone collections. She gave instructions for the labelling of decorative stones in some of the older petrological collections of the Museum, and she reviewed the display of the Corsi collection. It was decided that a new case would be built, designed to store the slabs in pull-out racking that would make them readily accessible under the good daylight of the Museum's glass-roofed courtyard. A selection of samples would be displayed in glass cabinets on three sides of the new case.
The storage and display case built for the Corsi collection in the 1960s.
Porter now acknowledged that Merrill's arrangement was not particularly suitable for the Corsi collection and returned it to that of the Catalogo ragionato. She illustrated her displays with photographs of the stones used in monuments and statuary, and with samples of Egypian 'alabastri' and cosmati pavement.
The new Corsi displays were timely, for interest in ancient stone was growing. Visitors between 1964 and 1966 included Raniero Gnoli, the grandson of Conte Gnoli; John Ward-Perkins, the Director of the British School in Rome, and Oxford archaeologist Michael Balance. All were at the forefront of research into the ancient trade in marbles, and the rediscovery of ancient quarries. Gnoli's authoritative work Marmora Romana of 1971, which replaced Corsi's Delle pietre antiche as the leading reference on the subject of ancient stone, gave Corsi's collection welcome publicity. Interest in ancient stone has continued to grow, particularly by members of ASMOSIA, the Association for the Study of Marble and Other Stone in Antiquity.
In the 1980s archaeologist Lisa Cooke started a placement working on the Museum's historic rock collections. She became particularly interested in the history of Corsi's collection and his Catalogo ragionato, preparing a new translation that corrected a number of errors made by Mary Porter. Assistant Curator Monica Price had also started reviewing Corsi's data about the specimens, names, geological descriptions and localities. It was evident that Corsi's collection was important both for its 'modern' and its 'ancient stones' and their paper at the ASMOSIA conference in Boston in 1998 outlined its history and significance10.
A cataloguing grant from the Jerwood Foundation in 1999 enabled the digital imaging of the collection which would facilitate research, and in particular, comparison of Corsi specimens with those in other collections. Expert visitors to the collection, such as Professor Lorenzo Lazzarini of the University of Venice, Professor James Harrell of the University of Toledo, Ohio, and Ian MacDonald of McMarmilloyd Ltd, have also enriched our knowledge of the collection. Professor Jim Kennedy, Dr David Bell and other geologists working in the University have helped provide hand specimen geological descriptions, making the collection more useful as an identification aid.
The number of visitors to use the Corsi collection has grown steadily. They range from archaeologists, architects and antique dealers, to conservators, artists and craftsmen. Monica Price's book Decorative Stone: the complete sourcebook11, published in 2007, features selected Corsi and other decorative stones from the Museum's collection.
A fully illustrated catalogue of the entire Corsi collection would be highly desirable but prohibitively expensive. Instead, the internet has offered us a way to make Corsi's collection and its Catalogo ragionato freely accessible to a worldwide audience. This website has been designed in collaboration with the Oxford University Computing Services Web Design Consultancy during 2011-12, and we are very grateful to the Esmee Fairbairn Foundation for their grant which has made this possible.
The project continues, and we welcome feedback and further information about Corsi's decorative stones.
