Hand woven giant Merino felted wool Footstool with Industrial Hairpin Legs. The Helena has that ever so cool Scandi-Hygge vibe that everyone is talking about, and as an original design, it will be a talking point wherever it resides. If you want a piece of furniture that is on-trend, will be the talking point of your room, yet can be easily maintained, this is your next purchase! The hand woven Merino wool top makes it tactile, durable and functional from living space, to nursery to bedroom. It would make an amazing gift to that person who treasures one off pieces, and their size makes them welcome in even thesmallest of spaces.
Each footstool is hand crafted, and covered in a neutral upholstery fabric that compliments each of the woven tops. Please feel free to message me with any fabric/yarn combinations, as I can easily source other colour ways.
The giant merino wool starts off as the ultra thick, luxurious wool used in extreme knitting but is hand felted, much like when you accidently put your favourite sweater in the washing machine and it now fits your three year old! Except this isn't an accident, this process give the wool it's longevity. If you have a houseful of sticky hands, or perhaps a tipsy dinner guest, the top will come off and can be dry-cleaned. The legs of The Helena are 10" two or three pronged industrial Steel Hairpin Legs that have been manufactured in the NW of England.
There are several colour choices available. This is a 100% handmade item.

2019 Executive Summit: Utopia for Beginners
Home / Who We Are / Events / 2019 Executive Summit: Utopia for Beginners
Tuesday, September 10, 2019 10:00 AM - Wednesday, September 11, 2019 2:00 PM
Four Seasons Hotel - 120 E Delaware Pl, Chicago, IL 60611
When you were young, you had dreams. Perhaps you still have. But as a digital chief focused on delivering digital transformation, we sometimes forget to dream and explore.
However, successful companies have realized that part of the success in the digital age is keeping the chief exploration officer in you awake. After all, digital transformation is first and foremost a journey of exploration—discovering uncharted new territories.
This year's Executive Summit is therefore a wake-up call, revitalizing your exploration skills. The point on the horizon: your Utopia.
There are important questions to consider:
How is your organization fostering a 'Utopia' that leverages technology?
What are the next trends in AI that could create new products, designs, and ideas? Generative Adversarial Network (GAN) is just one of these where this area could help spike fantasy and creativity.
Are you catering to the needs of the post-millennials? Based on the latest insights coming from our recent research "The Synthetic Generation," we suggest another question: how do you align with not only the technical side of their behavior but also their new ethical standards to build their trust?
With so much to explore, even the most experienced executive can feel like a new beginner. At this year's Executive Summit, we want to start creating the future. Based on your expertise, the inspiration from key-note speakers, and the team effort of the attendees, we will build a new Utopia.

Chicago Development News
20-story Fulton Market apartment tower headed to Plan Commission
The high-rise proposed for 166 N. Aberdeen is back to its original height
By Jay Koziarz Apr 4, 2018, 3:00pm CDT
Rendering of 166 N. Aberdeen from
On Wednesday the Chicago Plan Commission published April's agenda of developments that are expected to seek zoning approval later this month. While the Obama Presidential Center does not appear on the docket—as many expected it would—the newly posted list does feature a number of notable projects from Sauganash to Pullman.
Here's a quick look at what the city commissioners will consider at this month's meeting:
166 N. Aberdeen.
Solomon Cordwell Buenz
166 N. Aberdeen
After shrinking two stories in May of last year, the apartment tower slated for Fulton Market's Fabbri Sausage plant is back to its original 20-story height. Developed by MCZ and designed by SCB, the high-rise will contain 236 rental units and ground floor retail space. The plan, which saw on-site parking pared down from 84 to 80 spaces, settles on 70 spaces in its latest iteration.
Chicago's St. Boniface Catholic Church at 1358 W. Chestnut Street.
Space Architects + Planners
1358 W. Chestnut
After months of discussion and planning, the adaptive reuse of Noble Square's vacant 1902 St. Boniface Catholic Church is taking a big step forward. The plan from Stas Development and Space Architects + Planners will see the historic religious building turned into 17 for-sale condo units. It will be joined by a new two-story building occupied by a local nonprofit group and four affordable housing units as well as a new four-story building containing another 24 market-rate condos.

3500 N. California
This massive Commonwealth Edison development is proposed for an L-shaped parcel in Chicago's Avondale neighborhood. If approved, the project will deliver a new 120,000-square-foot office building, an 80,000-square-foot warehouse, a 1200-space parking garage, a supply yard, and a future substation. More info on the North Side project can be found on the 33rd Ward website.

Replacing a parking lot in the Loop, this seven-story development is amending its previously approved plan from 2016. The proposal now calls for ground floor retail topped by 81—up from 60—dwelling units. Chicago-based Hartshorne Plunkard Architecture will lead design duties.

1139 N. State
While not requiring a change to the underlying zoning, a plan to replace an older three-story Gold Coast building at the corner of State and Elm with a new retail/restaurant offering will need to seek Plan Commission approval under Chicago's Lakefront Protection Ordinance. An online marking flyer shows what the redevelopment of 1139 N. State could look like.
Montclare Senior Residences of Calumet Heights
Worn Jerabek Wiltse Architects
94th Street and Stony Island
Known as Montclare Senior Residences of Calumet Heights, this proposed development at 9329-9429 South Stony Island Avenue calls for a seven-story building with 134 mixed-income senior housing units. Amenities include a community room with kitchen, fitness center, media room, arts and crafts room, library, computer lab, beauty salon, laundry facility, and 94 parking spaces.
Additional Developments
Other notable items on the agenda include a proposed addition to Lakeview's Bernard Zell Anshe Emet Day School and new People's Gas Campus at 4025 W. Peterson Avenue in Sauganash. The Plan Commission will also consider plans for a six-story, 35-unit development at 2317 N. Clark Street in Lincoln Park and a zoning amendment for Gotham Greens to construct a new commercial greenhouse in Pullman, next to its existing facility on top of the Method Soap factory.
The Chicago Plan Commission will convene on Thursday, April 19 at 10:00 a.m. The meeting will take place in City Council Chambers at City Hall (121 N. LaSalle Street) and is open to the public.

The bottom line? If you're an Xcelsius 2008 user, this book belongs on your shelf.
(Sams Publishing, 2009, ISBN 978-0672329951). According to the bio on the back of the book, Loren is editor-in-chief of Xcelsius Journal, the online magazine for Xcelsius users.
Loren's book provides a comprehensive view on Xcelsius 2008 functionality including samples, which can be downloaded here from the Xcelsius Journal web site. The book contains 16 chapters organized into three sections: Xcelsius 2008 Fundamentals, Xcelsius 2008 Best Practices and Techniques, and Advanced Features. As an IT professional who didn't use Excel much before Xcelsius, I really appreciate how Loren brings his extensive knowledge of Excel to the material. This includes treatment of statistics, financial analysis and "less-than-optimal" (uh, dirty?) data.
In the "Advanced Features" section, Chapter 15 deals with XML and Data Connectivity. I would have preferred a more robust treatment of Query as a Web Service (QaaWS) and Live Office. But "rather than attempt a cursory across-the-board discussion, this chapter outlines from a hands-on perspective pragmatic issues and techniques for accessing XML data, particularly Excel XML maps". Of course, treatment of QaaWS and Live Office would have required a big investment in sample universes, reports, BIAR files, etc.
The last chapter, Chapter 16, is about "Creating Custom Components for Fun and Profit" using the Xcelsius Component SDK. Many Business Objects professionals don't code applications, but the chapter helps Xcelsius developers stick their toe into the water with Adobe Flex Builder and ActionScript/Flash/SWF development.

Nebcheperure Tutanchamon byl faraonem Horního a Dolního Egypta, 11. faraon 18. dynastie. Vládl jen 9 let, přibližně v letech 1333–1323 př. n. l. (uvádí se i jiná jen nevýrazně odlišná data). Jeho hrobka byla objevena až v roce 1922.

Odkrytí hrobky

Víra v existenci hrobky Tutanchamona v Údolí králů vyplývala z předchozích vykopávek Theodora M. Daviese v letech 1908–1909 kdy se našel úlomek fajánsové nádoby se jménem Tutanchamona v blízkosti pravděpodobně identifikované menší hrobky Aye, následníka Tutanchámona. Později byly v Metropolitním muzeu umění v New Yorku identifikovány další fragmenty pocházející z pohřebního ceremoniálu Tutanchamona. Hrobka byla Howardem Carterem objevena 4. 11. 1922 po delší době neúspěšných pátrání v zásypu po budování hrobky Ramesse VI. (budované zhruba v letech po 1145 př. n. l.) KV9 a pod vrstvou zbytků chýší dělníků. V kritický den byl odkryt první schod schodiště mířící do svahu. Po odkrytí vchodu do hrobky a vyklizení vstupní komory se objevila neporušená zeď s pečetěmi strážců údolí. Po pečlivě Carterem vedených pracích byl odkryt vstup do pohřební komory zaplněné pohřební výbavou a nepoškozenými sarkofágy Tutanchámona.

Život
Tutanchamonovo původní osobní jméno znělo Tutanchaton, což v překladu přibližně znamená: "Žijící podoba Atona", "Živoucí obraz Atonův" či "Dokonalý je život Atonův". Jméno mělo poddaným připomínat, že je přímým potomkem tehdejšího nového nejvyššího boha Atona. Teprve ve 2. roce své vlády se stal široké veřejnosti dobře známým Tutanchamonem, tj.: "Žijící podobou Amona" atp. Někteří badatelé používají zkráceninu jeho jména a nazývají ho též "králem Tutem", což je ale velmi neoficiální forma.

Při svém nástupu na trůn si faraon musel zvolit tzv. trůnní jméno, jež se pak vždy psalo před jeho původním osobním jménem. Pod trůnním jménem byl znám např. v cizině – objevovalo se v korespondenci atp. Od Střední říše bylo definitivně vžitou tradicí, že trůnní jméno obsahovalo nejvyššího boha egyptského pantheonu – boha slunce Rea (v období Nové říše známého pod jménem Amon-Re či Amenre). Svým jménem se faraoni hlásili k Reovi, za jehož syny se pokládali. Tutanchamon si zvolil za trůnní jméno Nebcheperure (či Nebcheprure), což lze přeložit jako: "Pán zjevení Rea" či "Pán proměny je Re". V korespondenci s cizinou (např. Chetity, Babylonií) bylo trůnní jméno zkomoleno na: "Nipchururia" či "Nipchuriria".

Jako princ Tutanchaton vyrůstal na královském dvoře svého otce v Achetatonu (dnešní Amarně) ve středním Egyptě. Jako faraon vládl v době velké 18. dynastie. Tato slavná a mocná dynastie, kterou egyptologové považují za jednu z nejvýznamnějších v dějinách, sjednotila v 16. století př. n. l. opětovně Egypt a stala se tak zakladatelkou Nové říše. Tutanchamon vládl královstvím Hornímu a Dolnímu Egyptu (a dalším zemím, podmaněným Egyptem). V jeho době však veleříše 18. dynastie byla již za svým zenitem a musela se smiřovat s četnými neúspěchy, územními ztrátami a ústupem z velmocenského postavení v přední Asii či v Núbii.

Tutanchamon se stal faraonem v přibližném věku devíti let a vládl až do své smrti (18 let). Pro jeho nízký věk však nepanoval sám a po léta byl jeho poručníkem a skutečným vykonavatelem moci vezír a jeho příbuzný a nástupce Aye. Mladý panovník zemřel již po devíti až deseti letech vlády (čeští vědci udávají dobu pod 9 let), přibližně v osmnácti letech, pravděpodobně na malárii nebo spíše na gangrénu po zlomenině stehenní kosti, po pádu z vozu. Pohřben byl v Údolí králů u Luxoru, při severozápadním okraji staré říšské metropole Théby (staroeg. Vesetu) .

Světově proslulou hrobku předčasně zesnulého faraona objevil po téměř 3300 letech v roce 1922 britský archeolog Howard Carter. Jeho sarkofág se podařilo otevřít ale až roku 1925 a tím i potvrdit, že se jedná o místo skutečného hrobu. Díky nálezu se o tomto panovníkovi ví mnohem více než o ostatních faraonech z tohoto období.

Zásluhou téměř neporušené hrobky, která byla téměř kompletní i s pohřební výbavou, se Tutanchamon stal faraonem, o kterém se podařilo zjistit velké množství informací. Pro egyptology ovšem nadále zůstává jedním z nejméně probádaných a politicky významných panovníků v historii celých egyptských dějin. Stále mnohé se toho o jeho osobě, rodině a vládnutí neví. Je to zapříčiněno jeho poměrně krátkou vládou a vymazáním z dějin Egypta jeho pozdějším následníky, kterými byli: Aj II. a především Haremheb a proslulý Ramesse II. (ten již přináleží k 19. dynastii).

Původ Tutanchamona

Nejnovější poznatky
Teprve před několika lety se podařilo vědeckému týmu egyptologů prokazatelně stanovit původ Tutanchamona. Početný tým slavného egyptologa Dr. Zahi Hawasse nade vší pochybnost (za pomocí počítačového tomografu, srovnávání DNA ad. vědeckých a historických metod) potvrdil starší (nejvíce uváděnou) teorii, že mladík byl synem tzv. kacířského faraona Achnatona (tj. původního Amenhotepa IV.). Otcova mumie byla při tomto výzkumu také definitivně ztotožněna. Vedle těchto zjištění se pomocí výše uvedených vědeckých metod podařilo objevit Tutanchamonovu matku, kterou byla vlastní Achnatonova sestra a (nepochybně) zároveň i jeho vedlejší královská manželka (hlavní královskou ženou byla slavná Nefertiti). Matčino jméno není dosud prokázáno, ale snad jí mohla být Achnatonova vedlejší žena – královna Kija. Zjištěná Tutanchamonova matka byla, podobně jako Achnaton, dítětem faraona Amenhotepa III. a slavné královny Teje, jejíž dříve nalezenou mumii se též podařilo při průzkumech jednoznačně ztotožnit. Podle nedávných zjištění Hawassova týmu však byla Tutanchamonova matka brzy zřejmě zavražděna a to úderem do hlavy. Incestní vztahy v egyptských dynastiích byly běžné a jeho rodiče tudíž nijak zvláště nevybočují z tehdejší praxe.

Egyptologové předpokládají, že Tutanchamon byl posledním právoplatným dědicem 18. dynastie. Jeho nástupci (Ayj a Haremheb) jsou do dynastie počítáni díky svému společensko-politickému sepětí a díky svému příbuzenskému spříznění s tímto rodem.

Dřívější teorie o původu
Existovalo několik hlavních teorií, přičemž nejstarší (už od dob objevení hrobky a znovu potvrzená po roce 2000 zkoumáním pozůstatků koster počítačovým tomografem) pravila, že faraonovým otcem by měl být faraon Achnaton/Amenhotep IV. a matkou by snad mohla být Achnatonova vedlejší manželka Kija. Hlavní královská manželka Nefertiti Achnatonovi totiž porodila pouze šest známých dcer.

Další, méně přijímaná teorie pravila, že Tutanchamon by mohl být synem jednoho z předních dvořanů a šlechticů Achnatonova dvora. Pokud byl Achnaton bez mužského dědice (z písemných dokladů a vyobrazení je známo, že měl pouze šest dcer), se tato varianta jevila jako opodstaněnou a sňatek s Achnatonovou třetí dcerou – dědičnou princeznou Anchesenpaaton/Anchesenamon, pak mladíčkův nárok na trůn legitimizoval.

Méně přijímanou a opuštěnou teorií původu byla i ta, jež za jeho matku měla královnu Teji. V tomto případě by ale otcem jistě nebyl Amenhotep III. Uvažovalo se dokonce, že Teje mohla mít chlapce se svým vlastním synem Achnatonem.

Osoba Tutanchamona a jeho dětství

Tutanchaton/Tutanchamon byl tedy prokazatelně Achnatonovým synem z jeho incestního spojení s vedlejší manželkou a zároveň vlastní sestrou. Snad i díky tomu byl mladík slabší fyzické konstituce (což prokázaly testy na jeho mumii). V dětství byl princ Tutanchaton snad nezávislý na otcově dvoru a ze začátku byl zřejmě vychováván svou matkou, Achnatonovou sestrou (předčasně zavražděnou), tak svojí babičkou – vlivnou velkou královnou Teje. Proto také neuctíval pouze boha svého otce Atona, jehož jméno nosil, ale i dříve zavedeného boha Atuma, který podle pověsti stvořil počátek světa. Princ se veřejného života nijak nezúčastňoval (není známo jeho vyobrazení z této doby) a žil spíše v ústraní.

Teprve po smrti otce Achnatona a jeho spoluvládce Smenchkareho, jenž samostatně vládl snad jen několik měsíců či maximálně tři léta, (buď šlo o jeho strýce, mladšího bratra Achnatona, což se jeví datově pravděpodobnějším, či šlo o jeho staršího bratra, není ovšem zřejmé, zda mohlo jít o vlastního sourozence) se stal jeho a otcovým nástupcem. (Oba zemřeli v týž samý čas, krátce po sobě. Usuzuje se dokonce, že mohli být zavražděni, což je ale doposud jen nepotvrzená teorie.)

Aby nový faraon Tutanchamon potvrdil a legitimoval svou pozici, oženil se (v rámci tradic) s Achnatonovou třetí dcerou a zároveň nevlastní sestrou dědičnou princeznou Anchesenpaaton, přejmenovanou posléze na Anchesenamon. (Její původní jméno se dá přeložit jako: "Žijící Atonem" či "Ta, která žije pro Atona"). Princezna Anchesenpaaton byla dcerou hlavní královské manželky – královny Nefertiti a Tutanchamonova otce Achnatona a je velmi pravděpodobné, že již dříve se s ní oženil její vlastní otec.

Při svém sňatku byl Tutanchaton ještě dítětem (zhruba devítiletým) a princezna Anchesenpaaton byla zhruba třináctiletá mladá dívka (byla asi o tři/čtyři roky starší, narodila se ve 4. roce vlády svého otce).

Rádci
Tutanchatonovým rádcem (preceptorem), vychovatelem a zřejmě i prastrýcem (bratrem babičky královny Teje) byl vysoký hodnostář, pozdější král Aj II. Aye byl hlavní postavou vlády (především v jeho prvních letech) mladičkého panovníka a měl tehdy tituly: "Božský otec a vrchní velitel jednotek bojových vozů" (tj. velel části egyptského vojska). Předpokládá se též, že byl zároveň dědem královny Anchesenpaaton/Anchesenamon.

Další vlivný muž dvora dětského faraona byl generál, písař, právník a druhý nejvlivnější dvořan – pozdější faraon Haremheb. Ten patřil k nanejvýš mocným lidem, ale prozatím se držel v ústraní či pobýval u armády, neboť hlavní úlohu na dvoře získal Aj.

Návrat k Amonovu kultu, nová jména a vláda
Korunovace nového krále se konala v Thébách (tradičním říšském hlavním městě 18. dynastie a zároveň centru Amonova kultu).

Tutanchaton po převzetí vlády postupně opouštěl Atonovo učení, které již začal opomínat jeho předchůdce Smenchkare, jenž uctíval současně s Atonem i Amonův kult v Thébách. Atonovo jméno bylo za dětského faraona příliš spojené s neblahými reformami jeho otce Achnatona, které zemi očividně společensky, hospodářsky a nábožensky devastovaly a výrazně mocensky oslabovaly. Mladíček se proto – za pomocí regenta Aye a dvořanů – ve 2. roce své vlády vrátil se k tradičním egyptským božstvům, zřekl se Atonova učení a zahájil postupnou obnovu země, v níž opět kvetla náboženská svoboda.

Výrazem nastupujících změn bylo demonstrativní přijetí nového jména. Se svou manželkou (dosavadní) Anchesenpaaton tak ve 2. roce své vlády (snad již v novém sídelní městě Memfidě) přijal nové jméno. Faraon Tutanchaton, což lze přeložit (jak již bylo na začátku řečeno) jako: "Žijící podoba Atona", se stal Tutanchamonem, tj.: "Žijící podobou Amona". Královna Anchesenpaaton, jejíž jméno se překládá jako: "Žijící Atonem", se současně přejmenovala na Anchesenpaamon neboli Anchesenamon, což lze přeložit jako: "Žijící Amonem". Obě přijatá jména, jak vidíme, jsou velmi podobná původním, jen se vyměnili ve jménu obsažení (tehdejší hlavní egyptští, proti sobě stojící) bohové. Tutanchamonovým otcem Achnatonem zavržený a nakonec zakázaný bůh Amon se tímto krokem opět dostal do popředí, jako tomu bylo do konce vlády Tutanchamonova děda Amenhotepa III. a ještě v počátcích vlády jeho otce Amenhotepa IV./Achnatona. Opuštění Atonova učení však neproběhlo okamžitě a jeho kult zanikal postupně, přežil vládu Tutanchamona a zřejmě zanikl až v období Tutanchamonova nástupce Aye II.

Dalším dokladem velkých změn bylo v prvních letech vlády symbolické přesídlení nedospělého panovníka a jeho dvora z Achetatonu, za čímž samozřejmě stál dvůr v čele s Ajem a Haremhebem. Achetaton, teprve nedávno dostavěná metropole, byla v důsledku opuštění dvorem velmi rychle ponechána osudu též dalšími obyvateli a po krátkém čase (ještě za 18. dynastie) zcela zanikla. Její stavby byly rozebírány a zbytky pohřbil písek. K zániku města přispěla i rostoucí nenávist kněží, obyvatel, dvora a Tutanchamonových nástupců k faraonovi Achnatonovi a jeho bohu Atonovi, jehož kult sídlil právě v Achetatonu.

Panovník tedy odešel do Memfidy (Memfis, staroeg. Mennefer), což bylo někdejší hlavní město Egypta a zároveň metropole Dolního Egypta, nacházející se dnes 30 km jz od Káhiry. Rozlehlé a zelené město (poblíž delty Nilu) bylo do jisté míry opakem spíše pouštního Achetatonu, jehož sídelní funkci za Tutanchamona nahradilo. Vedle Memfidy byl Tutanchamon často přítomen i v Thébách, které po mnoho staletí fungovaly jako oficiální hlavní město starověkého Egypta a zároveň jako hlavní náboženské centrum země (a hlavního boha Amona). (Na okraji této megapole ve známé nekropoli zv. Údolí králů, následně našel i své poslední místo odpočinku.)

Nový král Tutanchamon dal opravovat všechny chátrající chrámy a ostatní památky starých bohů v čele s Amonem. Amonovým kněžím a kněžstvu dalších božstev vracel majetek, který předtím z velké části připadl právě kněžím Atonova kultu. Tímto krokem se měla do země navrátit přízeň božstev a zároveň hospodářská prosperita, neboť chrámy byly centry hospodářského i kulturního života (byly v nich knihovny, archivy, školy). Hlavnímu staronovému bohu Amonovi, ke kterému choval úctu zřejmě již před nástupem na trůn, dal vystavět nepřeberné množství nových soch, které se nalézají především v Thébách. Vedle toho začal mladý faraon realizovat mnoho stavebních podniků, ale řada byla dokončena až za faraona Haremheba, jenž si je také přisvojil (odtesával kartuše s Tutanchamonovým jménem atp.).

V šestém roce vlády faraon Tutanchamon dosáhl věku patnácti let a začal se podrobně seznamovat s povinnostmi krále a učit se vedení státu. Aje a Haremheb byli schopnými rádci a jejich výchova a učení Tutanchamona znamenala mnohé pro jejich pozdější mocenský růst (až k trůnu).

Tutanchamon se nechával zpodobňovat klasicky jako faraon, který poráží své nepřátele. Skutečnost byla ale jiná. Tutanchamon se pravděpodobně (podobně jako otec) žádného vojenského tažení nezúčastnil. Za jeho vlády se mezinárodní situace příliš neměnila. Jeho zástupce generál Haremheb měl od samotného Tutanchamona plnou moc s titulem "Zástupce krále" a díky tomu mařil všechny nájezdy nepřátel ještě na hranicích stále rozlehlé říše.

Předčasná smrt
Osud je nevyzpytatelný a Tutanchamon zřejmě v devatenácti letech bez dědiců nečekaně zemřel. (Jedna jeho dcerka se narodila nedonošená a mrtvá, druhá zemřela hned po porodu.) Po skonu mu byla postoupena malá nedokončená hrobka v Údolí králů (na západním břehu Théb), kterou doposud držel jeho nástupce Aje II. Tato hrobka se nachází v sousedství Tutanchamonem určené malé hrobky otce Achnatona a babičky – královny Teje. Dělníci měli tehdy sedmdesát dní na to, aby hrobku připravili. Proto pohřeb faraona Tutanchamona a obřad otvírání úst královské mumie řídil právě Aje II., který se na obřad mohl dokonale připravit.

Sám Aye II. si přivlastnil původní Tutanchamonovu nedokončenou hrobku v západním Údolí opic, vedle hrobky králova děda Amenhotepa III.

Dopis pro chetitského krále
Po náhlé smrti faraona Tutanchamona se začaly dít zvláštní věci. Královská vdova Anchesenamon napsala dopisy znepřátelenému chetitskému králi Šupiluliamaši I., ve kterých mu oznámila smrt svého manžela a krále. (Ještě dnes ovšem někteří badatelé soudí, že dopisy mohla napsat spíše její matka Nefertiti. Tato verze je ale podstatně méně přijímána.) Královna žádala o jednoho z Šupiluliamašových synů, kterého by si vzala za manžela a tím by se princ stal novým králem. Tím chtěla zřejmě říše spojit, zajistit si moc a zároveň zabránit dalším výpadům ze severu. Klínopisná verze dopisu se dochovala v tomto znění:

"Můj manžel (Tutanchamon) zemřel. Ty máš dospělé syny. Pošli mi jednoho z nich. Provdám se za něho a udělám z něj krále."

Diplomatické sňatky byly zcela běžnou záležitostí, ale dosadit na trůn chetitského prince byl neskutečný plán. Egypt by ho na trůně nikdy nepřijal. Chetitský král Šupiluliumaš na královninu žádost odpověděl otázkami:

"Kde je syn krále? Zemřel snad?"

Po prozkoumání celé věci chetitský král Šupiluliumaš I. skutečně svého syna Zannanzu poslal, ten ale do Egypta nikdy nedorazil. Na cestě (v Sýrii) byla výprava přepadena a princ zavražděn, což znamenalo vyhlášení války Chetitskou říší. Za jeho vraždou mohli stát právě nástupci na trůn Aye II. s generálem Haremhebem, kteří zřejmě úmysl královny pojali jako velezradu. Navíc v tehdejších podmínkách bylo nemyslitelné, aby na trůn usedl Neegypťan.

Tutanchamonovi bezprostřední nástupci a zamlčení mrtvého faraona
V důsledku nastíněných událostí po smrti faraona Tutanchamona vzrostlo válečné napětí s Chetitskou říší a Egypt potřeboval urychleně nového krále. Anchesenamon se proto pravděpodobně musela formálně provdat za Ayeho II. (zřejmě vlastního děda /poslední teorie, že byl otcem Nefertiti/, jakožto bratrem její babičky královny Teje), který se ihned ujal vlády a zabránil vpádu Chettitů do země. Jedině Anchesenamon totiž měla dle egyptské tradice dědické právo na trůn, neboť Tutanchamon zemřel bez potomka, který by zdědil korunu a zřejmě už z dynastie nežil nikdo, kdo by přicházel v úvahu.

Aye II. se tedy stal Tutanchamonovým nástupcem a vládl přibližně 4 roky. Při nástupu k moci vyhlásil, že je přímým duchovním nástupcem Tutanchamonova děda Amenhotepa III. Amenhotepovy tři nástupce, včetně Tutanchamona (jenž byl s Achnatonem příliš spojen) tímto krokem vyškrtnul z oficiálního seznamu egyptských králů. Stejně se zachoval i Ajeho nástupce král Haremheb a později Ramesse II. Těmito kroky se oba Tutanchamonovi nástupci chtěli distancovat od Achnatona a jeho kultu. Památky na něj, na kult a poslední členy dynastie byly tak ničeny. Díky tomu se Tutanchamonovo jméno jen zřídka vyskytuje v některých textech, zatímco na stélách, stavbách či v hrobkách nefiguruje vůbec (bylo odtesáno, vyškrábáno atp.).

Spoluvládcem starého Aye II. se stal generál Haremheb, který na hranicích (v Sýrii) zatlačil Chettity zpět a odvrátil hrozbu vpádu do země. Haremheb byl velmi pravděpodobně manželem mladší sestry královny Nefertity – Mutnedžemet, jež byla zřejmě dcerou Ayjeho II. Po smrti Ayeho II. se pak Haremheb sám ujat trůnu a stal se posledním faraonem 18. dynastie.

Bohatství nalezené v hrobce

Hrobka Tutanchamona obsahovala kompletní pohřební výbavu, která se skládala z různých věcí pro faraonovu posmrtnou potřebu. Například to byly nádoby s oleji, vodou i vínem, byly tam potraviny, oděvy, které faraon používal za svého života. Byly tam předměty vyrobené pro den smrti, kdy byla pohřební výbava vnesena do pohřební komory, jako byly například sošky, lůžka, rozložené vozy, luky, šípy, truhlice naplněné šperky, truhlice s oděvy nebo truhlice s plátnem. V hrobce byla pohřební komora se sarkofágem a zde v několika rakvích spočívalo tělo krále. Hrob byl menší, ale předměty v něm nalezené se počítaly na tisíce.
Mezi nalezenými předměty se nacházelo také několik rozložených dvoukolových antických válečných vozíků, které se staly předmětem intenzívního výzkumu jejich konstrukce, schopnosti pohybu a dynamice v nerovném terénu, možnosti řízení směru jízdy, technologie jejich výroby a v neposlední řadě i materiálů, které byly v době 18. dynastie k dispozici. Z četnosti nálezů v hrobce se vyvozuje, že to nebyly dobové unikáty, ale v širším měřítku vyráběné vozíky ať pro potřeby lovu, nebo také ve válečných výpravách Tutanchamonových předchůdců, jako byli například Thutmose IV., či následníků – generála-faraona Haremheba. Zmíněné výzkumy ukázaly na sofistikované prvky konstrukce, optimální dynamickou vyváženost pro pohyb v nerovném terénu, ale zejména technologie výroby a v historické době použité, převážně dřevěné konstrukční prvky. Ujal se termín jejich označení jako Tutanchamonova třída vozíků (chariot). V hrobce byla také nalezena dýka z meteorického železa, která patrně pochází z království Mitanni.

Kletba faraónů
Objevením Tutanchamonovy hrobky se začaly šířit spekulace o kletbě faraónů. V žádné z hrobek nebyl nikdy nalezen nápis, který by kletbu nebo jakékoliv potrestání toho, kdo naruší klid zemřelého, obsahoval. V hrobkách se objevovaly texty, které chrání zemřelého a jeho duši před zničením, a formulky, které měly zahnat zlé duchy. Tzv. kletba faraónů není vědecky ani historicky podložená, je to spekulace určité skupiny lidí.

Zpracování nálezů z hrobky

Tutanchamon vládl jen krátkou dobu a zemřel náhle a patřil k těm méně významným panovníkům Nové říše. Bohatství nalezené v hrobce mu vyneslo slávu a jeho jméno je známé nejen mezi egyptology, ale i mezi veřejností. Bohatství nalezené v hrobce je vystavováno v káhirském muzeu. Howard Carter pečlivě provedl zdokumentování předmětů vynesených z hrobky a pečlivě předměty popsal a opatřil akvarelem. Ve třech svazcích vydal záznamy doplněné kresbami a chtěl vydat detailní a precizní publikaci, ale v roce 1939 zemřel a publikaci nestihl dokončit. Obsah hrobky je vystaven v souhrnné kolekci v několika sálech v Egyptském muzeu v Káhiře. Křemencový sarkofág a vnější rakev jsou vystaveny v původní hrobce KV62 v Údolí králů.

Genetická genealogie
Testy DNA z roku 2010 vyvrátily teorii o skonu panovníka cizím přičiněním a potvrdily, že faraon zemřel v devatenácti letech na gangrénu po úrazu nohy nebo na malárii. Testy rovněž potvrdily, že jeho rodiči byli sourozenci, a to král Achnaton a jeho vlastní sestra. Měl malý rozštěp horního patra, stejně jako jeho otec. Levou nohu měl kratší než pravou, a proto při chůzi musel používat dřevěné hůlky. Byla prokázána vada kostí s diagnózou Köhlerova syndromu. Bezprostřední příčinou úmrtí byla synergie geneticky zděděných vývojových defektů, zmíněný Köhlerův kostní syndrom, snížená imunita s prokázanou infekcí malárie.

Rodina – shrnutí
 Otec: Achnaton (Amenhotep IV.). Jeho otcem je určitě zesnulý z hrobky KV55, který je podle testů DNA Tutanchamonovým otcem z 90 % nebo jeho bratrem z 10 %. Z logiky věci je tedy jeho otcem, což naznačily a potvrdily i jiné testy.
 Matka: královská princezna a vedlejší královská manželka Achnatona (zároveň jeho vlastní sestra, pravděpodobně Kija). Potvrzeno testy DNA.
 Sourozenci: 7 (jinde se píše jen o 6) částečně vlastních (po otci) sester a snad (úplný či poloviční) bratr, faraon Smenchkare? (Zatím se nepotvrdilo.)
 Manželka: poloviční (nevlastní) sestra Anchesenamon (původně Anchesenpaaton), třetí dcera Achnatona a jeho hlavní královské manželky Nefertiti.
 Děti: jedna nenarozená dcera a druhá dcerka, která zemřela hned po porodu.

Q: how to dynamically add id to the table rows so that they can be identified uniquely I have a table structure in manage.component.html which gets populated with the data from the server.
I have a 'edit' button which can be used to edit a cell in the column.
Requirement:I want to uniquely identify each cell which can be further be used to edit and send back the value back value to the server for update.
I tried to append "counter" to the "id" of the  so this can be used to uniquely identify each row cell, but the "counter" is not setting on the "id"
manage.component.html

            {{work.req_id}}
            <input id="btnn{{count$}}" type="text" value="{{work.client_ip}}" maxlength="4" placeholder="name" onload="addID()"/>
            {{work.client_type}}
            {{work.project}}
            <button (click)="edit()" type="button" class="btn btn-primary">Edit</button>

manage.component.ts
export class ManageComponent implements OnInit {

count$ = 0;

edit(event){
    document.getElementById('btnn').focus();
  }

addID(){
    this.count$ = 5;
  }
}

when i click the "edit" button the focus should be on the  element of the rows and after editing when i click "send" button the change in the value should be accessible on the .ts file so that the value can be send back to the server.

A: There are various method to do it. But since you wanted to get it by id or class, check out the below code

            {{work.req_id}}
            <input id="btnn-{{i}}" type="text" value="{{work.client_ip}}" maxlength="4" placeholder="name" onload="addID(i)"/>
            {{work.client_type}}
            {{work.project}}

            <button (click)="edit(i)" type="button" class="btn btn-primary">Edit</button>

and in your typescript
edit(_index){
    document.getElementById('btnn-'+_index).focus(); //get the element by id
  }

Hope that helps

Berry College has been a member institution of the Georgia Poetry Circuit since 1998. The Circuit was founded by Adrienne Moore Bond, Mercer Professor, who served as the Circuit Director until her death in 1996. Dr. Gordon Johnston then assumed the Directorship, a post he held until 2007. Mercer served as the flagship school for the Circuit from 1985 to 2007, when the Circuit directorship was moved to Berry College, where it is now housed. Dr. Sandra Meek, Professor of English, Rhetoric and Writing, has served as Georgia Poetry Circuit Director since 2007.
Founded at Mercer University in 1985, the Georgia Poetry Circuit is a consortium of ten Georgia colleges and universities working together to bring three poets of national and international reputation annually to all members' campuses, providing an important access to the literary arts for Georgia residents across the state. At each school, each Circuit poet gives a free and open reading of his/her work. Visiting poets also meet with creative writing students at each campus for workshops, talks, or extended question and answer sessions. In addition to the opportunity to hear work from diverse writers of national and international reputation, the Circuit events provide Georgia students with an immensely valuable educational opportunity for interaction with many of the best contemporary poets in the United States. Recent GPC poets include Adrian Matejka, Aimee Nezhukumatathil, Sholeh Wolpe, Kevin Prufer, and Kim Addonizio.


With the pressures of land intensification, water demand and population growth, the design and implementation of more integrated approaches to environmental management to tackle these issues seems to be on everyone's minds. Integrated Catchment Management (ICM) has been advocated for land and water management since the 1960s. The Parliamentary Commissioner for the Environment's report Growing for Good was a renewed call for ICM approaches for sustainable land and water management. But learning how to do ICM effectively is still a challenge.
Catchment Connections has been reactivated to share learning about ICM. The newsletter is primarily a forum for sharing research experience from the FRST-funded ICM research programme. The programme is led by Landcare Research in partnership with Cawthron Institute and Tasman District Council, in collaboration with other researchers. We would also love to include your contributions to enable wider sharing of the ICM experience among practitioners – whether from regional and district councils, NZ Landcare Trust, iwi groups, sector groups, catchment and community groups, or the wider research community.
Fundamental to ICM is integration, and a theme of ICM is working across organisations, across the landscape, across disciplines and with resource users.
In this edition we present our take on ICM as a process for engagement, learning and action. With examples from the Motueka catchment where the ICM research programme is based, we describe the process of identifying ICM issues and introduce a context for stakeholder engagement generally and with iwi specifically. Some useful tools for ICM are described, ranging from the Influence Matrix methodology to the WATYIELD water balance model. Finally we acknowledge the impact that catchments can have offshore in describing the concept of a river plume ecosystem.
Integrated Catchment Management is a process that recognises the catchment as the appropriate organising unit for understanding and managing ecosystem processes in a context that includes social, economic and political considerations, and guides communities towards an agreed vision of sustainable land and water resource management for their catchment.
ICM is also a research approach. Its objective is both to analyse and synthesise to provide the knowledge needed to integrate human and environmental systems. It aims to improve understanding of catchment processes from the ridgetops to the sea, to provide tools for sustainable management, and to help people plan for more sustainable futures.
As a policy approach, ICM is a way to promote sustainable management of the natural and physical environment under the Resource Management Act 1991, and thereby contribute to the social, economic, environmental, and cultural well-being of communities promoted under the Local Government Act 2002.
As a human process, it encourages communities, government, businesses, sector groups, stakeholders and individuals to work collaboratively toward sustainability, with people seen as integral parts of natural ecosystems.
While this process might suggest a major role for biophysical science such as hydrology, modern catchment management is less of a technological fix involving top-down management and engineering solutions than 50 years ago. Catchment managers still need knowledge about biophysical processes such as water yields, sediment loads and aquatic ecology; but they also need to understand community values and aspirations for their place in the catchment, and engage stakeholders in resource management. These bring in social, cultural and economic (including political) dimensions to management.
So we see modern ICM as having two pillars: biophysical knowledge and social process. Increasingly this combined approach will be needed when working in an integrated way at any scale, not just catchment scale.
The Motueka catchment is home to a national ICM research programme. ICM research was initiated here following a Top-of-the-South sector workshop, which saw land-use impacts on fresh and marine waters as a priority issue. An important reason for choosing the Motueka River catchment for research was the strong links between the land, river and coastal environments. The Motueka catchment was chosen not only for its diversity of climate, geology, soils, land and water uses, but for its range of environmental issues.
Water allocation is a significant issue among water users, especially forestry and horticulture – particularly the availability and allocation of surface and groundwater in this seasonally-dry catchment.
The impacts of water use and land management practices – especially sediment movement – on the Motueka River and its tributaries, which are a nationally and internationally recognised trout fishery.
The consequences of the combined impacts of land and river management on coastal aquaculture and fishing industries, which are of national economic importance.
Cumulative effects of development by an increasing and more diverse population, including increasing tourism and Māori cultural and business opportunities.
A fifth research component is integrative tools and methods across the water, land, coastal and human themes.
These themes inform the policy needs of the Tasman District Council through its Tasman Resource Management Plan and its Long Term Council Community Plan processes. From the council's perspective, some current priorities are the setting of water allocation limits, a monitoring strategy for the state of the environment, policy development for river management including gravel extraction and floodplain management, management of diffuse discharges, and coastal space allocation for aquaculture development.
Integrated catchment management covers a wide variety of scientific and resource management disciplines and a diverse range of stakeholders/end-users. Successful ICM needs leadership to encourage conversations among all the players about the resource management issues across the catchment. Discussion among different resource users often doesn't take place until controversy hits, usually leading to an adversarial situation with the parties on opposite sides of a court room. Encouraging conversations among diverse groups is not easy, but our research approach based on collaborative learning theory and methods provides a basis for such discussion to occur.
In the ICM-Motueka programme we have placed an emphasis on trying many different ways to support stakeholder engagement and engender a shared understanding of the Motueka catchment. These approaches have ranged from learning groups that have come together around both science and management issues to collaborative initiatives that have used art and photography as a conversation centrepiece. In this inaugural newsletter we will provide an introduction to the format of our annual general meetings, and in other issues we will cover other stakeholder engagement processes.
From this perspective our annual 3-day AGMs can be seen to have contributed in many ways to the successful adoption and implementation of the ICM approach. The AGMs have been an excellent way to review research progress, build social capital among the team and with stakeholders, and to interact with the catchment communities. Depending on the theme, each AGM requires contributions from ICM researchers and subcontractors, our resource management partner Tasman District Council, and stakeholders such as forestry, farming and marine farm reps, DOC, Fish & Game, and iwi – groups which in the past may have struggled to reach consensus. Participation has resulted in stakeholders observing the research process from the inside, rather than the outside, and being willing to contribute to identification of issues and to the direction of the programme in finding solutions. The AGMs are also an opportunity for stakeholders to hear from each other about their concerns and issues.
A 2004 workshop with TDC mapped ICM research into their Resource Management Plan framework.
The river gravel/channel dynamics workshop in 2006 provided an opportunity for researchers and a range of stakeholders to discuss an issue that has been highly controversial in the Tasman District for decades. This discussion helped defuse tensions about gravel extraction between extractors and council by providing an objective review of gravel fluxes and the limitations of river cross-section surveys. Feedback from the workshop indicated that a common level of understanding had been reached and priorities for further work were identified.
Similarly, the land–marine day on a boat in Tasman Bay (2006) gave all involved an appreciation of the scale of the river outwelling plume and the difficulties associated with managing resources in the coastal zone.
How can we account for all the trade-offs that happen when we manage resources at catchment scale? In this article we describe a participatory method called the Influence Matrix, which can be used to identify and prioritise factors affecting catchment futures.
Over a series of six participatory workshops with the ICM Community Reference Group (ICM-CRG), an ICM research team developed and trialled an Influence Matrix method. The aim of this collaborative exercise was to actively involve scientists and community members in thinking about the future of the Motueka catchment based on collective goals, envisioning, sharing understanding, and model building. The model building provides a structure and process to aid the dialogue process. It helps to organise and evaluate ideas and information generated by the group, using elementary mathematics.
The residents of the Motueka catchment want to manage their catchment so as to ensure they continue to enjoy … a safe place to play and live, its pristine character and beauty, its identity, economic and ecological balance, its economic viability for business development, its exceptional climate, biological, community and landscape diversity & coastal integrity.
Results and their application for strategic policy development were reported back to the group and to the Tasman District Council, who had one staff member participating in the ICM-CRG.
The significance of this work is the trialling of an integrative Triple-Bottom-Line modelling approach using a participatory process with a group of non-technical catchment residents and scientists. The process and its results raised awareness of the value of such tools for informing Long Term Council Community Plans, and residents' own perspectives. It is also a good example of collaboration among different disciplines within the ICM research team: an ecological economist, hydrologist, and social scientists. This work is informing current development of a Motueka Catchment futures model, part of the IDEAS modelling framework.

Incorporating tangata whenua perspectives, values and knowledge requires the right process and effective dialogue to be established early on in ICM. The development of iwi-led and iwi-issue-driven collaborative projects has been instrumental in building strong iwi–science partnerships and increasing iwi engagement and interaction in ICM science objectives and multi-disciplinary research.
Engagement has been at many levels, including iwi participation at organised meetings and workshops, field-days, project planning, community reference groups, joint papers, sharing expertise and knowledge, and learning together. Iwi representatives have also attended and spoken at several ICM AGMs and science meetings, and accompanied scientists in the field. This spirit of cooperation and collaboration creates an environment in which we respect each other, learn, understand, and share different perspectives, It also improves access and uptake of science and technical information. Establishing the right environment is therefore an integral part of ICM for increasing multi-stakeholder engagement, particularly iwi involvement. An integrated and inclusive understanding of stakeholder knowledge and values ultimately informs, guides, and improves decision-making to achieve the sustainable management natural and cultural resources and strategies for achieving stakeholder aspirations.
Improving capabilities for decision making.
Te Uri o Hau is a hapu of Ngati Whatua whose rohe covers the northern part of the Kaipara Harbour. They reached a deed of settlement with the Crown in September 2000.
The Kaipara is one of those sacred taonga and Te Uri o Hau is responsible for protecting it for the benefit of all people.
Following a successful seeding grant application to FRST/Health Research Council, Te Uri o Hau, through their resource management arm Environs Holdings, provided the 'glue' or coordination role to initiate a process that began with hui in 2005 facilitated by Glen Lauder (Common Ground), Shaun Awatere and Chris Phillips (Landcare Research). The hui used lessons learnt from our Motueka experience to explore an ICM approach for developing and implementing a plan of action for a multi-stakeholder participatory process focused on improving the management of land, freshwater, and near-coastal environments with multiple, interacting and potentially conflicting land and harbour uses.
The importance of leadership, governance and commitment to ensure the project moves forward.
A management group (Integrated Kaipara Management Group – IKMG) was later formed with representatives from regional and district councils and other government agencies and community groups. The group's vision is 'A healthy and productive Kaipara Harbour'. The establishment of IKMG is assisting Te Uri o Hau in meeting their responsibilities under the Te Uri o Hau Settlement Act and is consistent with a number of memoranda of understanding and protocols established between Te Uri o Hau Settlement Trust and key stakeholders.
In June 2007 an environmental coordinator, Leane Makey, was appointed to assist the activities of IKMG and has begun assembling a database of information about the Kaipara Harbour and its contributing environments. A new website for this project is expected to go live in early 2008. This website is helping create a focus point for those with an interest in the management of the Kaipara Harbour, will become a repository for information about the Kaipara, and is assisting in coordinating the group's activities and affairs.
How much will stream flows increase when a pine forest is cleared?
Will irrigators downstream be affected by steeper farmland reverting to scrub?
If I establish a forest, will it reduce the low and flood flows downstream?
These types of questions can be addressed using a land-use change toolkit completed by staff at Landcare Research with Ministry for the Environment and regional council support. This toolkit comprises a summary of knowledge on water use by different vegetation covers in New Zealand and a spreadsheet-based hydrological model: WATYIELD.
WATYIELD is a water balance model working on a daily time step and is particularly suited for catchments up to 50 square kilometres. The model takes daily rainfall data and calculates daily catchment water yields where there is a limited amount of data on the climate, soils, and vegetation of the catchment. It runs in a Windows environment and uses an EXCEL spreadsheet for input and output of data.
All of these reports and the WATYIELD model are available for free download or hard copies can be supplied for a small charge.
Since initial development WATYIELD has received some further refinements and improvements that are not included in the downloadable version.
Based on our observations of the influence of the Motueka River discharge on coastal waters and seabed habitats, we propose the development and implementation of a river plume ecosystem concept for management of New Zealand's coastal environment.
Management of coastal regions around New Zealand is often conducted without evaluating and considering the extent and degree of influence of river outflows. Coastal aquaculture development, in particular, is taking place in many regions throughout the country at locations potentially influenced by river outflows with largely unknown consequences.
The Motueka 'catchment' effectively extends offshore for many kilometres into the marine environment of Tasman Bay. Considering this, we can redraw catchment boundaries to encompass a mobile and variable-sized freshwater plume of >400 km2 that is frequently achieved during rainfall events.
The main freshwater influences on the coastal environment include salinity, temperature (and related density stratification), nutrients, phytoplankton biomass, suspended sediments (and related water clarity), and a variety of potential contaminants.
ICM research shows that approximately 50 km2 of seabed off the Motueka River Mouth in Tasman Bay has a terrestrial signature arising from the river's outwelling plume. Organic C/N ratios, stable C & N isotope ratios, certain lipid biomarkers and trace metal concentrations provided useful indicators of terrestrial and riverine influence on subtidal sediments extending at least 6 km offshore from the river mouth. These sediment influences also appear to dictate patterns in the abundance and diversity of seabed animal communities. The results were consistent with simulated sedimentation patterns from Cawthron's Nelson Bays hydro-dynamic model.
Catchment effects were shown to be particularly relevant to the management of three aquaculture management areas (AMAs) covering a total of >40 km2 in western Tasman Bay. Our results suggest that the deposition of river-borne sediments discharged into the bay during major rainfall events could mask (or mitigate) benthic impacts caused by aquaculture activities. Natural sedimentation events were shown to significantly reduce the survival of juvenile shellfish that drop to the seabed beneath commercial spat collection facilities. Because of this work, the Ministry of Fisheries has been able to relax its requirements for exhaustive dredging to avoid overpopulation of shellfish. In situ experiments suggest that the deposition and chronic resuspension of catchment-borne suspended sediments can reduce feeding and survival of scallops. Thus land catchment activities can contribute to the extreme harvest variability within the Nelson Bays' scallop enhancement programme.
In conjunction with a series of related outputs showing the more spatially extensive water-column effects, this information demonstrates that coastal ecosystem management cannot be effectively conducted without considering the activities on the entire land–sea continuum comprising our redefined 'catchment'.


Want proof that you haven't changed one bit since you were 4 years old? Just stare at a cookie.
Researchers ended up tracking the kids ever since, and noticed that those who couldn't resist the first cookie often had lower SAT scores, higher BMIs, and a higher risk of substance abuse later in life than the kids who waited.
But it gets better: The researchers recently chose almost 60 volunteers from the original study—now in their 40s—and conducted a similar impulse-control test. Sure enough, the adults who had trouble delaying gratification now were the same ones who couldn't wait for the cookie all those years ago, suggesting that the self-control trait stays remarkably stable throughout life.
Resisting temptation and learning some discipline can be tough—it's why we can't help reading all those spoilers—but it's hardly impossible. In fact, studies show that simply improving one self-regulating aspect in your life could have a big trickle-down effect.
In a 2007 study in the Journal of Economic Psychology, people who signed up for a 4-month program to monitor their finances ended up not only quadrupling their savings rate, but also significantly decreased their use of alcohol, ate healthier, and studied harder. See? A little willpower can go a long way.
Here's one secret to having more willpower: Think back to a time when you didn't fold under pressure, advises Greg Walton, Ph.D., a psychology professor at Stanford University. That reminds you that even when you're pushed to the limit, you won't crack—giving you just the shot of motivation you need to power through.

Trump's latest decision may ease the trade dispute with China
Categories:Steel pipe knowledge
(Summary description)The "Business Insider" website reported on June 27 that US President Trump announced on Wednesday the details of the plan to restrict Chinese investment in US technology companies, including expanding the authority of the US Foreign Investment Commission (CFIUS), which is more than previously expected The measures are much milder. The report said that the specific contents of the Foreign Investment Risk Review Modernization Act (FIRRMA) of the Senate and the House of Representatives still need to be finally coordinated, but both versions will strengthen CFIUS's review authority for foreign investment in key technologies. In addition, the senator 's version of FIRRMA includes a stricter review process for investments from countries such as China, South Korea, Iran, Russia, and Venezuela.

A: As mentioned in the comments, you can use GetClientRect to get the dimensions use refer to. My answer here provides some additonal information about GetClientRect and the other variants.


Топик Мир профессий рассказывает о важности правильного и своевременного выбора профессии. Проводя большую часть нашей жизни на работе, мы напрямую зависим от того, насколько интересна нам именно эта работа, соответствует ли она нашим способностям и, конечно, заработная плата играет не последнюю роль. Вопрос о выборе профессии нужно решить еще в школе, а не ждать ее окончания. Зная свои предпочтения и таланты в определенной области, следует приступить к исследованию предполагаемого рынка труда, собирая необходимую информацию о подходящих предприятиях, о перспективах развития отрасли в целом. Например, наука, искусство, бизнес, социальное обслуживание, консультирование, продажи и так далее. Надо понимать, что только новые, растущие отрасли будут предлагать рабочие места сейчас и в будущем.
We spend great part of our lives at our jobs, so choosing a right career is one of the most important decisions you will make in your life. Many students finish high school and begin college without a clear idea of what they want to do in future. Part of the problem is the size of the job market itself. With so many kinds of jobs (2000) how can you tell which will interest you? Some of occupations are already overcrowded. In old industries there may be little need for new workers, while new and growing industries will offer jobs now and in the future.
Therefor, it is extremely important to explore your choice of occupations from every angle, collect as much information as you can. But above all you must evaluate yourself. Find out where your interests and talents lie. Postponing a decision is an error people make. "I'll get started tomorrow or next week, or next year," - many people think. These people refuse to face the problem, hoping it will go away. But if you don't take the first step now, how can you plan for the future, how can you take the right way? Such people miss many opportunities. First start with yourself, make a list of your interests, talents and abilities. Most people have a lot of these, but at the beginning they are undeveloped and may not seem outstanding. By concentrating on a few, or on one, you may surprise yourself at how good you can get.
The interest inventory that follows covers the major fields in which most people find careers: science, art, social service, business, sales and so on. Sometimes we say that someone we know is 'a square peg in a round hole'. This means that person we are talking about is not suited for the job he is doing. Unfortunately, many people in the world are 'square pegs'. But to be a 'square peg' is not a real problem, a real problem for millions of people is to be unemployed.
Unemployment especially hits poor and working class families the hardest, not because this people are more likely to be unemployed, but because they don't have financial resource to fall back on. Unemployment exists primarily for two reasons: first - the existence of millions of unemployed people tends to present most of those working from asking for higher wages since they can be replaced easily, second - in their search for profits, corporations are interested in finding the cheapest labor.
As for our country more than 10% of our people are unemployed. There is no lack of work force in Russia, but at the recent moment the need for professional workers is increasing. Old industries are overcrowded and it is hard to get new education for people whose age is 35-40 years. The problem of unemployment is also connected with the economic crisis in our country. And I think when this crisis comes to an end the problem of unemployment will not be so urgent.

British female artists are underrepresented on UK radio, study finds
Songs by Jorja Smith, Mabel and Shaybo were broadcast less frequently than their male peers in a 12 month period
Tuesday, August 25, 2020 - 14:45
British female artists are underrepresented on UK radio, a new study has found.
The Gender Disparity Radio Report, from Why Not Her and Linda Coogan Byrne, has produced a report to provide analysis of the 20 most-played british acts across British radio stations in the period of June 2019 - 2020, and the top 100 radio airplay chart in 2020.
Broken down into male, female and collab categories, the findings on the report outline the Gender Disparity that is present in the Top 20 most played songs by British artists across 31 individual radio stations in the UK. Among the radio stations included were BBC Radio 1, BBC Radio 1Xtra, Kiss, BBC radio 6, Capital FM, and Heart. Each of these radio stations played less than 25% of songs from female artists during the 12 month period.
BBC Radio 1 played 85% male music in the last year, with acts like Jorja Smith, Mahalia, and Shaybo making up BBC Radio 1Xtra's 30% of female artists to recieve airplay. According to the report, Radio X have played no songs by female artists in the last 12 months.
You can see the full Gender Disparity Radio Report here.
In 2019, over 250 organisations pledged to tackle the music industry's gender imbalance. The announcement was made by the PRS Foundation, expanding on the Keychange pledge, launched in February 2018 to level the male-female playing field at festivals across the world.
Barcelona's Primavera Sound 2019 was the first to achieve a 50-50 gender split, with more than 190 events now signed up to do the same by 2022.

DLR Transport
Mobile Situation Center
Parnters and Cooperations
Credit: DLR (CC-BY 3.0)The Mobile Situation Center consists of a portable operations tent and an antenna for receiving data transmissions from an airplane.
The mobile situation center of VABENE++ consists of a vehicle with an antenna for receiving data transmissions from an airplane, and a portable operations tent. Depending on the given situation, the receiver antenna can also have a stationary mounting, such as on a roof. Inside the tent there is equipment for controlling and monitoring the receiver antenna and processing the incoming data. These data are then distributed and analysed, and the generated products are forward to the relevant portals. The results are finally visualized in the operations tent and can also be provided to users in the form of maps. Because various results can be combined and displayed at one location, it is possible to have a more rapid and detailed overview of a situation than is otherwise possible. The mobile situation center has another advantage: it can be set up quickly and is ready for use in less than an hour.
There are two different possibilities to transmit the processed aerial images and traffic data from the airplane to the ground station, but at present the microwave link is the one chiefly being used on a routine basis for the mobile situation center. Transmission via an optical data link is being experimentally tested.
Mikrowave Link
Microwave data transmission is being accomplished with the commercial "WINS" system produced by Schulze Radio Systems. The challenge in using this directional radio system comes from the necessity to have the antennas on the aircraft and on the ground constantly in line with each other despite the aircraft movement. In the system being employed this is achieved by determining the precise position of both antennas with the help of GPS receivers and exchanging the momentary position data of each via the data link. The flight direction, orientation and altitude data are also recorded on the aircraft and taken into account when adjusting the aircraft antennas. The system permits a transmission rate of 11 Mbit/s over a maximum range of 70 km.
Optical Data Link
An optical data transmission system was developed to rapidly transmit especially large volumes of data from the aircraft sensors. The optical communication system consists of an optical terminal on the airplane and a mobile ground station. Besides its high data rate the system has the advantages that it can operate without a radio transmission licence and that it guarantees a high level of eavesdropping security.

Which economics is this then?
Ragging on Ritchie
And I agree: that might be necessary if Scotland did, as the archly neoliberal thinks appropriate, fix its currency against sterling. Of course in that case Scotland would have no choice but spend all its earnings trying to maintain parity with the pound, crushing economic growth in the process.
But if Scotland had its own currency and let it float, as it would have to, Scotland could concentrate on delivering full employment instead.
Entirely true, an independent Scotland with its own currency could print as much as it likes in order to stimulate the economy. There might be the odd side effect or two of course:
June 7 2018 at 11:45 am
Correct me if I'm wrong Richard, but if Scotland had a free floating currency, but a huge budget deficit, would that currency likely lose value quickly?
And if the currency starts losing it's value quickly that will make us Scots poorer, as inflation goes up and our imports cost more.
Richard Murphy says:
June 7 2018 at 12:32 pm
Do you know it will have a huge budget deficit?
A trade deficit is a threat: but is a budget deficit really a cause when the reality is that these need never be funded with foreign currency borrowing?
In other words I do not agree with your hypothesises
A currency in greater supply does not fall in value. That's just so neoliberal to insist that it does.
previousWell, it's an interesting idea
nextSigh

I like the idea of someone being archly neoliberal more than their being saucily collectivist but I can't think of an actual person in the former category, alas.
Andrew M June 7, 2018 at 1:22 pm
The Scots will just crank up their tax rates to cover the deficit (or to soak up the money-printing, as Spud would say). Since nobody ever changes their behaviour in response to changes in tax rates, everything will be rosy. I look forward to Scotland's 80% tax rate.
Jim June 7, 2018 at 1:32 pm
"I look forward to Scotland's 80% tax rate."
And 30% VAT on whats left…..
john 77 June 7, 2018 at 3:03 pm
@ Jim
It's not just the absolute level of the tax rate – it's also whether it's on gross or net income after other taxes. 30% on what's left still leaves you with 14% of pre-tax but some years ago when no 1 son was at uni and no 2 son at school I was working part-time ro share caring responsibilities and I calculated that my marginal tax/withdrawal of tax credit/uni grant rates was noticeable over 90% and if I'd had two kids at uni and one at school it would have been over 100%.
There must have been some contracts where the non-tax-deductible expenses wiped out the tiny amount of taxable profit left after deduction of taxes.

Hmm, is he thinking only those living in Scotland will be allowed to buy/own the SNP Bonds? That would possibly wipe-out any trade deficit as Scots would be living on gruel.
Rob June 8, 2018 at 8:25 am
If it doesn't have a budget deficit, how will this new currency get into the economy?
Can't have it both ways, Spud. Though you try desperately hard to do so.
Jack Hughes June 8, 2018 at 9:23 am
An independent Scotland would, presumably, want to remain in the EU.
It would therefore need to adopt the Euro, licketty-spit. So, it would not be independent for long, and what it does with any currency in the meantime is largely irrelevant.
Chris Miller June 8, 2018 at 4:44 pm
Unless Brexit is massively delayed (sadly, looking increasingly possible), there's no possibility that Jockxit could take place until after we'd left. So they'd have to reapply if they wanted EU membership. They'd struggle to pass the economic tests, and why would the eurozone want another basket case? Further, Spain would be at the front of the queue of EU countries with fissiparous tendencies of their own, who would veto a Scots re-entry in order not to create a precedent.
