Big Daddy Ace vs Heidenreich
Written by Dprincedso & Rocknsock5230
Mark: Rhino, normally I would come from a Christian and Hunter match and say something like another great match but I believe this match was a bit different as both men fought like they had something to prove more so than ever.
Rhino:The Match up saw alot of back and forth action, but in the end the better man came out on top. Right now, we are going to see the returning Big Daddy Ace in action and here he comes.
Mark: This is a real EWA crowd too. Not your normal "do what I say" crowd that the wrestlers usually come out to. Some are chanting welcome back. Others go back home. Obviously, the EWA split on Ace here as he makes his way down to the ring. He looks physically fit but the story is going to be what he does in the ring.
Rhino:That would be correct, as he has had his personal problems, which has taken him out of action. But now its back to business for Ace. Coming to the ring now to his familiar tune, the man who is on a mission to get back the FTW Championship, Heidenreich. Do you think he can do it later tonight?
Mark: Is Heidenreich going to even go through with this? He said that he wanted to go after the FTW and that Chris should be there. Dangerous Politics kicks up and I guess we find out if the match happens or not.
Rhino:It looks like he is coming out here. If I were Ace, I would strike early and often, being that it is his first match up back.
Mark: Heidenreich nodding his head as he holds a microphone in his hands. Heidenreich been acting real strange as of late and I'm sure none of us expected him to stop in the middle of the aisleway and cut a promo.
Heidenreich: You know, I wanted to make this worthwhile and have us face Taz under the 24/7 rule. Since you want to cut some company time, I'm not going to waste mine, Chris. I'm going back to wait for Taz and Anarchiah and I'm gonna send them both the hell. You do what you want. I'm out of here.
Mark: Just what is wrong with Heidenreich anyway? He refuses to call Big Daddy Ace just that; Big Daddy Ace and now, he turns his back and walks away refusing to wrestle! What's Ace going to do? Let him walk away or go after him?
Rhino:Big Daddy Ace is not letting him walk away just yet as he runs up the ramp and goes after Heidenreich from behind… Guess Big Daddy Ace is here to fight Heidenreich and could care less about what Heidenreich wants to do.
Mark: Ace nails Heidenreich in the back! There's the bell and Ace with some furious punches to Heidenreich's head! Heidenreich trying to cover up but with no luck! Ace picks him up and a kick right to Heidenreich's chest! Ace grabs the arm and looks like he's going to get this fight out in the crowd here! Sends Heidenreich to the wall!
Rhino:Heidenreich is dazed and confused as he stands at the wall… Big Daddy Ace now reaches and pulls out a steel chair…Steel Chair Shot… Ducked by Heidenreich and all Big Daddy Ace was able to get was concrete wall… I dont think thats what he had planned.
Mark: His hands numb from the impact and what the hell? Heidenreich just hit Ace right in his lower back! I'm sure as I saw it that was a kidney shot! Another shot to the back of the neck? What the hell is wrong with this guy? Heidenreich with a whip and Big Daddy Ace just vanished into the curtains backstage!
Rhino:Big Daddy Ace just picked up something from underneath a table backstage… Heidenreich turns the corner and just got blasted with a fire extinguisher…Heidenreich seems to be blinded… But who is that coming down the hall way?
Mark: I don't know! I can't see! Ace with the extinguisher and is just emptying it all on Heidenreich! Man, that's gotta be cold! Heidenreich and Ace somewhere inside all that smoke! I hear fighting as this smoke clears. What the hell! It's Taz and Anarchiah! Taz is choking out Anarchiah with that towel he wears around his neck! Did I miss something like oh, I don't know, the FTW Title Match starting a few minutes ago?
Rhino:FTW is always 24/7, so I guess Anarchiah and Taz decided to start a little early tonight. Wonder who started the fight. But Taz is on the back of Anarchiah as he continues the choke…Anarchiah just fell backwards right on top of Taz. Look Out… Heidenreich just got hit in the head with the fire extinguisher. Looks like Heidenreich could be out cold…
Mark: The metal could be heard echoing off the head of Heidenreich as Ace just got his spring training in early and hit a home run. Ace not letting go of the extinguisher. Hits Taz off Anarchiah! Does this mean that Ace took up on Heidenreich's challenge? Who knows? Ace with the extinguisher and nails Anarchiah in his chest! Ace finally drops that extinguisher. Measuring Taz now. YAKUZA….no! Counter! Taz hooks him! CAPTURE SUPLEX AND ACE GOES RIGHT THROUGH THAT LOCKER ROOM DOOR! Who's dressing room is that?
Rhino:All I see are leather pants and handcuffs, must be Lenny & Lodi's locker room…Taz is now on top of Ace and is just hammering with clubbing shots to the head…Heidenreich is now getting up… Anarachiah just spun Heidenreich around and both big men are nose to nose… For once Heidenreich is looking up at someone…
Mark: I think that extinguisher shot opened Heidenreich up as Anarchiah and Heidenreich are wailing away at each other! Heidenreich not being able to get much advantage bleeding from that extinguisher shot and only managing a few shots as Heidenreich is sent crashing into all that stage equipment! Those boxes and whatever's in them come crashing down! I'm still wondering if this has become a 4-way FTW fight though!
Rhino:It looks that way to me right now Mark… Taz just grabbed a pair of handcuffs… What the hell… Big Daddy Ace has just been handcuffed to the locker… He is just wide open for punishment… From Behind… Anarchiah just laid out Taz… He seems to be dragging Taz out of the locker room and down towards the gorilla position…
Mark: And Taz intelligently hooking those cuffs so that they would lock around one of those hooks inside the locker because with Ace's strength, he could rip the door off a locker with ease. Taz fighting out but Anarchiah using his power advantage to bring him back out here in the Delta Center. Here we go! Taz and Anarchiah for the FTW Championship in DEATH BY TABLES! Anarchiah wish those huge forearm shots to the back of Taz's back and Hardcore Theater showing that indeed Ace is still chained to the inside of the locker but clearly not inside the locker itself. Heidenreich, still buried under all that stage equipment which is now being pushed away and I guess that means Heidenreich's about to free himself.
Rhino:Heidenreich is out from underneath the stage equipment and he is trying to get to where Taz and Anarchiah are… Taz just got thrown head first in to the steel…Taz staggering around a big boot from Anarchiah laying him down… Anarchiah is looking down at the tables and is looking to send Taz through the table…
Mark: Taz in trouble as Heidenreich comes out here! Taz about to go through the tables! No! Taz sidesteps the big boot and lands a huge belly-to-belly that won't keep Anarchiah down but will stun him. And would you look into the eyes of Heidenreich as he caught a glimpse of the helpless Ace!
Rhino:Heidenreich just spun Taz around and laid him out with a clothesline…Taz looks to be in trouble as Heidenreich is looking to put him through a table…Heidenreich has Taz up on his shoulder… This is not going to be good for Taz… Anarchiah just pulled Taz down and now Heidenreich and Anarchiah are face to face…
Mark:Things are looking to explode here Rhino… Slugfest is on… Heidenreich and Anarchiah trading blows back and forth…Neither man is giving an inch… Which one will budge Rhino…
Rhino:Heidenreich is starting to stagger backwards towards the back of the stage…Anarchiah goes for a big boot…
Mark:Heidenreich moved out of the way and Anarchiah's foot goes right in to the set…
Rhino:Anarchiah is now in trouble…
Mark:Heidenrich with a dropkick staggering the big man Anarchiah… Taz just hooked up Anarchiah from behind… T-BONE TAZPLEX OFF OF THE STAGE THROUGH THE TABLES!
Pa Announcer:Here is your winner and STILL FTW Champion… TAZ…
Rhino:Taz retained… Heidenreich isnt happy at all…
Mark:Officials are keeping everyone separated… Right now its time for the…

Shane:You have all heard the rumors… You have seen all of the reports on the website… That Omega is hiring someone to watch over me and what I do… The question I have is why… Why doesnt Omega trust me running the show?

Kurt Angle: Well you see Shane. Let me put it like this, I'm out here for one reason only. And that reason is that from now on, from this very moment, you can refer to me as . . . partner. Oh it's true.
Rhino:Partner?
Shane:What do you mean Partner Kurt? I am the only Vice President in this company… How could you be my partner?
Kurt Angle: Shane now I know we've been friends for a long time, I know it's been a while since you've seen me. But let me try putting it like this . . . Your new eWa commissioner has arrived. Oh it's true! IT'S DAMN TRUE!
Mark:Kurt Angle is the new Commissioner… I am in total shock…
Shane:Kurt, I must say… At least for once Omega got it right… Because who better than my good friend Kurt Angle… An Olympic Gold Medalist to be the guy I am going to work with every single week to make sure that this company is the best in the business… I dont know what to say Kurt… But welcome aboard…
Kurt Angle: Thanks Shane. And like you said, Omega finally got it right. You see he called me up and asked me to come in for an interview. What it was about, I didn't know. But he was looking for a certain individual who could work well with yourself Shane, someone who could help make this business even better. He saw our chemistry and made it happen. And Shane, what better combination of business partners than friends. Put it there pal.
Mark:Kurt Angle sticks out his hand for a handshake and Shane shakes his hand…
Rhino:It looks like we have a united force finally running the day to day operations of the Extreme Wrestling Alliance…

Mark:They are still hugging and smiling…I guess we should go the video package for the main event..
Rhino:Kurt Angle seems to be enjoying… Why did Kurt just get angry all of a sudden… Did someone say something to him…
Mark:OH MY GOD! BELLY TO BELLY SUPLEX ON SHANE MCMAHON! WHY DID KURT DO THAT!?!
Rhino:Shane McMahon has been laid out by Kurt Angle… But Why?
Mark:Kurt is now walking up the ramp once again smiling… Why in the world would Kurt Angle turn his back on his good friend Shane McMahon? Right now we need to get set for our main event…

What are properties of plastic?
How the physical properties of plastic are explained
Plastic is easy to mold when exposed to high temperatures, although if the temperature is too high it can decompose. For this reason, plastic is said to possess properties of flexibility and elasticity as it adapts to certain shapes.
Once it reaches its final form, plastic is quite resistant and difficult to degrade. Its uses are varied, it is used for the construction of bottles, tables, vases, among others.
In 1860, in a contest whose reward was 10,000 dollars, John Wesley Hyatt proposed dissolving cellulose in a solution of ethanol and camphor, and obtained celluloid (considered the first thermoplastic) with this simple process. At the time, the search was on for a substitute for natural ivory (which was used to make, for example, billiard balls).
Plastic is resistant to deterioration. However, it is important to mention that resistance is often not synonymous with sanitation. A plastic bottle may or may not be reusable, depending on the type of plastic from which the bottle is made. Each plastic object should have a label that specifies whether it is reusable or not.
Plastic is a material made up of organic or synthetic compounds that have the property of being malleable and can therefore be molded into solid objects of various shapes. This property gives plastics a wide variety of applications.[1] Its name derives from plasticity, a property of materials, which refers to the ability to deform without breaking.

In 1839 Goodyear in the United States and Hancock in England developed in parallel the vulcanization of rubber, i.e. the hardening of rubber and its increased resistance to cold. This was the beginning of the commercial success of thermosetting polymers.[8] The following year, in 1839, Goodyear in the USA and Hancock in England developed the vulcanization of rubber.
The plastics industry begins with the development of the first thermoset plastics by Baekeland in 1909. Baekeland produces the first synthetic polymer and also develops the plastic molding process, which enabled him to produce various articles of commerce. These early plastics were named Bakelite in honor of their discoverer. Bakelite is formed by a condensation reaction of phenol with formaldehyde.[9] Baekeland's first synthetic polymer is called bakelite.
Characteristics and properties of plastic
Today, most plastic water and soft drink bottles are made from a polymer called polyethylene terephthalate or PET. This polymer began to be used in the manufacture of bottles from 1976 onwards because of its excellent suitability as a beverage container.

In addition to mineral water and carbonated beverages, PET plastic bottles also serve as packaging for products such as cooking oils, juices, teas, isotonic beverages, wines and spirits, and as packaging for other products such as toys.
By recycling plastic bottles, we save a considerable amount of oil – one ton of oil for every two tons of plastic recycled – and we achieve great energy and economic savings, as well as a clear benefit for the environment by reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
In this way we also reduce the amount of waste that accumulates in landfills. To give you an idea, one ton of recycled PET plastic is equivalent to saving between 25 and 35 square meters of landfill space, or 3.32 tons of CO2 that would have been emitted had it not been for recycling.
All plastics have the same properties
Plastics are polymers obtained from petroleum. Both because of their properties (they are malleable, low density, impermeable and good insulators), and because they are easy to produce and very low cost, they are one of the most widely used products in society.

Today I'll show you a quite unique place, not so easy to find out, especially in the Marche countryside.
Here's the Gothic revival style chapel! For the uninitiated, without go to search, I open a parenthesis: the Gothic revival is the direct expression of the romantic culture that spread in Europe in opposition to the Enlightenment. The affirmation of the feelings in opposition to reason, and the exaltation, by the German Sturm und Drang movement, of the freedom of genius, led the romantic rejection of rules and classic models. First developed in the literature, and then in the field of architecture. The subsequent rediscovery of the Middle Ages, like a period of intense spirituality and battles for the affirmation of the people, led to a revaluation of Gothic architecture. From Romanticism to the mid-1800s, this trend has depopulated everywhere, even in Italy, where, however, in the countryside it cames with a little delay.
This country church was designed and decorated in 1927 by a well-known professor and also pastor of a neighboring diocese. When he retired, he built this structure to celebrate mass without "going out" of the house. In the '70 heirs tried in vain to donate the property to the curia, since for them it was more a burden than a pleasure, and that's the reason of the slow decline and abandonment. The last heir sold everything for a ridiculous amount of money to a local real estate company who wanted to renovate church and rectory, and sell it to some wealthy foreigner, project abandoned soon, given the current state.
The abandoned structures are two: the church and the rectory.
The church, of modest size, on the altar is placed a nativity scene, while all around we can see decorations in Gothic revival style. The building is not in the best conditions from the structural point of view, but with a good dose of caution you should not take risks.
The rectory seems more a farmhouse, and also parked in the courtyard there is an old farm-cart with decorations typical of the Sicilian style, strange to find such a thing here. Upon entering we see a great millstone and the large living room, probably the only interesting part, since the rest of the building is unfinished, waiting for the end of the restructuring.


The prevalences [correction] and patient characteristics of primary immunodeficiency diseases in Turkey--two centers study.
J Clin Immunol. 2013 Jan;33(1):74-83. doi: 10.1007/s10875-012-9763-3. Epub 2012 Sep 15.
Kilic SS, Ozel M, Hafizoglu D, Karaca NE, Aksu G, Kutukculer N.
Department of Pediatric Immunology, Uludag University School of Medicine, Görükle, Bursa, Turkey, 16059.
Primary immunodeficiency diseases (PIDs) are inherited disorders of the immune system resulting in increased susceptibility to unusual infections and predisposition to autoimmunity and malignancies. The European Society for Immunodeficiencies (ESID) has developed an internet-based database for clinical and research data on patients with PID. This study aimed to provide a minimum estimate of the prevalence of each disorder and to determine the clinical characteristics and outcomes of patients with PID in Turkey.
Clinical features of 1435 patients with primary immunodeficiency disorders are registered in ESID Online Patient Registry by the Pediatric Immunology Departments of the Medical Faculties of Uludag University and Ege University Between 2004 and 2010. These two centers are the major contributors reporting PID patients to ESID database from Turkey.
Predominantly antibody immunodeficiency (73.5 %) was the most common category followed by autoinflammatory disorders (13.3 %), other well defined immunodeficiencies (5.5 %), congenital defects of phagocyte number, function or both 3.5 %), combined T and B cell immunodeficiencies (2 %), defects in innate immunity (1 %), and diseases of immune dysregulation (0.7 %). Patients between 0 and 18 years of age constitued 94 % of total and the mean age was 9.2 ± 6 years. The consanguinity rate within the registered patients was 14.3 % (188 of 1130 patients). The prevalance of all PID cases ascertained from the registry was 30.5/100.000. The major cause of the mortality was severe infection which was seen in forty-two of seventy five deceased patients. The highest mortality was observed in patients with severe combined immunodeficiencies and ataxia-telangiectasia.
Promoting the awareness of PID among the medical professionals and the general public is required if premature death and serious morbidity occurs due to late diagnosis of the wider spectrum of PID are to be avoided.

Turtuk village is one of the remotest and most beautiful villages of Ladakh. It is located at the last corner of Nubra valley at India - Pakistan border and situated on the bank of mighty Shayok River in Nubra valley. The village was a main part of the silk route, the gateway of Ladakh to Xingang to China, to Mongolia and the village chieftain shared strong economic and cultural ties with the Kings of Ladakh and Tibet. Tibetan Buddhism was popularly practiced in the past but now the about 600 residents are entirely Nurbakshi Muslim.
The terrain to Turtuk is a swirly mountain road that descends into a valley abruptly. In summer, Turtuk is full of greenery with wheat and barley fields in bloom. The riversides and feet of lofty mountains are dotted with sea buckthorn bushes in full bloom with pale, shiny yellow fruits. Every house is fenced with Apricot and Apple trees. Turtuk's apricots are the sweetest in the entire region of Ladakh and no matter how many one eats, the stomach doesn't act up. Vegetables including cauliflower, cabbage, spinach and carrots are cultivated and stored for the long and hard winter. Inside the village is a world apart, reminiscent of a scene out of The Man Who Would be King. People either belong to Aryan or Mongol race. Villagers are fair, rosy-cheeked, with aquiline features. Many have auburn hair. The houses, of stone and wood, stand in the shade of giant apricot, walnut and mulberry trees. Water channels gurgle through the winding village lanes. Old women wearing gorgeous silver tiaras, their hair plaited in a dozen braids, sit winnowing barley. Village have beautiful wooden mosques dating back to 1690, boasts a Minar built entirely of latticed wood, and exquisitely carved ceiling panels.
Turtuk village, were only opened to foreign tourists in 2010, so they are still quite new in their contact with tourists and the West, and rather unexplored. A trip to Turtuk is in every sense a treat - culturally intact, untainted by tourism and simply delightful.
We are hoping to get comments from you. This adventure is one that you will come back to and cherish for a lifetime!

Key Enemies of Energy Reforms in Ukraine
By Andrian Prokip on September 9, 2020
EnergyUkraine
BY ANDRIAN PROKIP
Since the Euromaidan, Ukraine has made enormous progress with reforms in the energy sphere. However, these efforts have not been radical enough and were not implemented fast enough to launch a modern and effective energy sector in Ukraine.
Before the dissolution of the USSR, Ukraine's energy system was among the most developed in Europe. But after 1991, now independent Ukraine and its emerging energy market became reliant on importing many energy resources from other former Soviet states; there was no longer "free energy." Ukraine therefore needed new rules for the energy sector that would ensure a balanced price and a predictable schedule for the international transit of energy resources from suppliers to end-users. For this, the role of state in establishing and enforcing the rules was critical.
Together with a developed energy system, Ukraine inherited some specific features of the Soviet social contract that prevented the energy market from becoming more efficient. According to this contract, citizens pay unfairly low prices for goods and services, including energy services, in exchange for loyalty to the "caring" government. For more than twenty years the Ukrainian government's intent to let energy prices be shaped by market forces was constrained by the ruling party's fear of losing voters' support. Thus the social contract promoted populism among rulers and paternalism among the ruled.
This perverse situation made the energy sector inefficient. And the country became vulnerable to political pressure from energy-exporting countries, especially Russia. Inefficiency also provided an opportunity for corrupt rent seeking at the international level.
A good example of the tortuous impact of such a situation is that during the 1993–1994 Ukraine-Russia talks on division of the former Soviet Black Sea fleet in Crimea, Ukraine's gas debt to Russia worsened Kyiv's negotiating position. Later, in 2010, high prices for Russian gas and Ukraine's energy inefficiency drove Kyiv to sign the Kharkiv Pact, which stipulated that Ukraine would receive discounted gas from Russia in return for extending the contract allowing Russia to base its Black Sea fleet in Crimea until 2042.
In early 2011, Ukraine joined the European Energy Community. As a requirement for joining, Ukraine had to introduce energy regulations similar to the ones in the EU and other states participating in the Energy Community. Among other steps, the Ukrainian government had to finally form an energy market and revoke subsidies to households. However, the government was in no hurry to execute its obligations and fulfill its commitments. In early 2013, President Yanukovych criticized the EU for its lack of support in Kyiv's conflict with Gazprom and even floated a balloon about possibly abandoning the Energy Community, opining that membership in it contradicted Ukraine's national interests (which were understood within the context of the usual populist/paternalist expectations).
A new era in Ukraine's efforts to reform the energy sector (and others) started after the Revolution of Dignity. The radical nature of the reforms was caused by the conflict with Russia and the political-economic crisis of 2014. At that time, more than a quarter of Ukraine's energy came from abroad, mostly from Russia. All nuclear fuel and 92 percent of imported natural gas came from Russia. Russia and Belarus were major suppliers of oil and petroleum.
The Donbas war and the annexation of Crimea worsened Ukraine's energy dependency. Ukraine lost access to many coal reserves in the Donbas, thus becoming dependent on coal imports. Ukraine also lost about 10 percent of its domestic gas production with Russia's annexation of Crimea. The threat of further conflict with Russia in the military and energy spheres led to a further deterioration in Ukraine's security posture and challenged the government to acquire additional energy supplies before the upcoming 2014–2015 winter. All these factors together finally supplied the needed propulsion for serious efforts toward reforming the energy sector.
Since 2014, the Ukrainian government has promoted plans for gas self-sufficiency, for enhanced energy efficiency, for gas substitution, and for the development of renewable energy sources. In 2014 the government started taking the drastic step of canceling subsidies and increasing energy prices to consumers.
Despite the security and economic challenges, the government has managed to avoid disaster in the energy sector. The disruption of coal deliveries from the Donbas was addressed by increasing imports. Some nuclear fuel was purchased from the US-Swedish Westinghouse company, and the trilateral EU-Ukraine-Russia talks on gas supply were successful for Kyiv. Also, Russia's intended South Stream pipeline project, which would have bypassed Ukraine, thereby reducing revenues from transiting gas, was canceled, which somewhat improved Ukraine's role in Russian gas transit while also signaling a shift in Russia's longtime goal of delivering gas directly to Europe.
Later, in 2015–2016, when it became clear that an energy disaster had been avoided, the government got cold feet, again exhibiting more sensitivity to public attitudes in regard to energy prices. This shift coincided with the slowing of reform efforts and a reemergence of the traditional populist-paternalist social contract, followed by a renewal of the oligarchic consensus, whereby some governmental decisions are made not on behalf of the energy sector but to benefit specific business groups. Had these factors not reappeared, Ukraine's energy sector today would be in a much better position.
The reforms in the energy sector have currently stalled. In part this is the result of a deficit in strategic thinking. Several different energy sector reform strategies and a plan for the entire sector have been proposed over the past two decades. But none of these were ever fully implemented, nor were they adequately tied in to other economic reform plans, sometimes even seeming to work at cross purposes.
Now Ukraine must learn from its mistakes and achievements in planning and carrying out reforms. The reforms proposed for the energy sector must be realistic and connected to other sectoral reforms. In addition, a clear strategic vision uniting reforms in the economic and energy sectors is needed, one that recognizes each sector's specific needs and goals and is based on well-grounded calculations. And we need to overcome the curse of the post-Soviet social contract and the oligarchic consensus. The energy sector can help boost Ukraine's economic development. It just requires the reforms to be revisioned, replanned, and fully implemented in a reasonably short time.

That these agencies were established in the old Confederacy during the rise of the New South was no accident. Many southerners believed that in order to direct their future they had to preserve their past. In 1943 the North Carolina agency was designated the Department of Archives and History. With the reorganization of state government between 1971 and 1973, the agency became the North Carolina Division of Archives and History within the Department of Cultural Resources. In 2001 it was renamed the Office of Archives and History.
From its beginnings-when a young Raleigh attorney named William J. Peele began pressing for the creation of a state historical agency in 1900 and met with success three years later-the organization has enjoyed notable leadership. Among its directors have been R. D. W. Connor (who went on to become the first archivist of the United States), Albert Ray Newsome (first president of the Society of American Archivists), C. Christopher Crittenden (first president of the American Association for State and Local History), and H. G. Jones (twice recipient of the national Waldo Gifford Leland Award for excellence in archival history, theory, or practice). Through the years, the Office of Archives and History has established award-winning programs in archives and records management, museums, highway markers, historic sites, historic preservation, archaeology (including underwater archaeology), and publications. The degree of professionalism has remained high, largely because of the supervision of the North Carolina Historical Commission, an 11-member body made up of five historians and six laypersons appointed by the governor for six-year staggered terms. In 2003 a number of events were held in observance of the organization's centennial year.
The North Carolina State Archives is the state's depository for historically valuable documents and information. The agency collects, preserves, and makes available for public use historical and evidential materials relating to North Carolina. The archives' holdings consist of official records of state and local governmental units and copies of federal and foreign government materials. County records comprise a large part of the collection, including county court records, wills, estate records, marriage bonds, and tax records. The archives also houses some military records such as pay vouchers, pensions, and accounts from the Revolution to World War II.
Patrons can also access microfilm copies of the Federal Census from 1790 to 1920 (excluding the burned 1890 census) as well as bound volumes of county lists from the censuses. In addition to these official records, the archives possesses private collections, maps, pamphlets, sound recordings, photographs, motion picture film, and a small reference library. In all, the North Carolina State Archives houses more than 50,000 linear feet of permanently valuable materials, containing millions of individual items. New records are acquired as they become available. Counties and government agencies deposit records periodically, while the archives obtains other collections through donations and purchases financed by the Friends of the Archives.
The North Carolina State Archives received the first Distinguished Service Award of the Society of American Archivists in 1964, and The Way We Lived in North Carolina, a five-volume series of richly illustrated books examining the social history of the state with a special emphasis on its historic sites, won the James Harvey Robinson Prize of the American Historical Association for its outstanding contribution to the teaching and learning of history in 1984.

Q: Delete edges between vertices in igraph R I have an unweighted and undirected graph (A) with 10 vertices and 10 edges.
> A
IGRAPH UNW- 10 10 --
+ attr: name (v/c), weight (e/n)

I want to delete a bunch of edges from this graph as defined by vertex pairs, so for example, I want to delete the following edges:
V4 -- V5
V3 -- V7
V3 -- V6

These edges are stored in a data frame called "edges". I want to delete these edges in one go. I tried:
> delete.edges(A,t(edges))

but this does not work and returns the error:
Error in as.igraph.es(graph, edges) : Invalid edge names
In addition: Warning message:
In as.igraph.es(graph, edges) : NAs introduced by coercion

Why does this not work when the equivalent command for adding edges does work?

add.edges(A,t(edges))

How can I delete these edges from graph A in one command? Thanks

A: Probably the simplest way is to use the graph as an adjacency matrix:
library(igraph)
g <- graph.ring(10)
V(g)$name <- letters[1:10]
str(g)
# IGRAPH UN-- 10 10 -- Ring graph
# + attr: name (g/c), mutual (g/l), circular (g/l), name (v/c)
# + edges (vertex names):
#  [1] a--b b--c c--d d--e e--f f--g g--h h--i i--j a--j

g[ from=c("a","b","c"), to=c("b","c","d") ] <- 0
str(g)
# IGRAPH UN-- 10 7 -- Ring graph
# + attr: name (g/c), mutual (g/l), circular (g/l), name (v/c)
# + edges (vertex names):
# [1] d--e e--f f--g g--h h--i i--j a--j

See more at http://igraph.org/r/doc/graph.structure.html.

A: The manual suggests to either use E to extract the edges you want to remove from the graph,
or edges to construct them from their names (we do not know what your edges data.frame contains).
library(igraph)

# Sample graph
g <- graph.ring(10)
plot(g)

# Edges to remove, as a data.frame
e <- data.frame(
  from = 1:3,
  to   = 2:4
)

# Convert the data.frame to edges
e <- apply(e, 1, paste, collapse="|")
e <- edges(e)

# Remove the edges and plot the resulting graph.
plot( g - e )

A: Delete_edges takes a series of edge IDs.
Deletion of edges via their incident vertices requires an additional conversion to edge IDs.

ei <- get.edge.ids(g, c(3,6, 3,7, 4,5))

g  <- graph(c(3,6, 3,7, 4,5), 10, directed=FALSE) +
      path(1,2,5,6,7,8,9,10)

ei <- get.edge.ids(g, c(3,6, 3,7, 4,5))
g2 <- delete_edges(g, ei)

Edges can also be removed by symbolic names.
g3 <- set_vertex_attr( g
                     , name="name"
                     , value=strsplit(paste0("V", seq_len(10)), " " )
                     )
g4 <- delete_edges( g3
                  , get.edge.ids(g3, c("V3","V6", "V3","V7", "V4","V5"))
                  )

Japan Offshore Wind Project to Add Largest Turbine Ever Used at Sea
A floating offshore wind project in northern Japan will soon add a 7-megawatt turbine, the largest of its kind ever to be used at sea.
The new turbine will join a smaller 2-megawatt model, which has been generating power at the project about 20 kilometers (12 miles) off the coast of Fukushima since November 2013. The turbines are part of a pilot project led by Marubeni Corp. and funded by the Japanese government.
"Countries are exploring floating offshore wind technology and Japan is in a sense at the same level with Norway and Portugal," as they each have similar projects with about 2 megawatts of capacity, Yasuhiro Matsuyama, a trade ministry official in charge of clean energy projects, told reporters Wednesday.
"This will be the world's first pilot project to use such an extremely large-size turbine," he said, adding that the trial operation may start in September.
The government has allocated 50 billion yen ($405 million) for the project. The technology involves attaching turbines to structures that float in areas too deep for traditional towers fixed to the seafloor.
The new turbine and a floating structure are both made by Mitsubishi Heavy Industries.
Officials plan to add a 5-megawatt model later to test the function of various sized turbines, Matsuyama said.

But it is Still a Robot!
This months PLoS Biology contains a review article by Floreano and Keller on studies that explore evolution using robots. It is an interesting read.
Darwin suggested that adaptation and complexity could evolve by natural selection acting successively on numerous small, heritable modifications. But is this enough? Here, we describe selected studies of experimental evolution with robots to illustrate how the process of natural selection can lead to the evolution of complex traits such as adaptive behaviours. Just a few hundred generations of selection are sufficient to allow robots to evolve collision-free movement, homing, sophisticated predator versus prey strategies, coadaptation of brains and bodies, cooperation, and even altruism. In all cases this occurred via selection in robots controlled by a simple neural network, which mutated randomly.

1998 Ron Paul Chapter 75
Freedom And Privacy Restoration Act
Home Page Contents Congressional Record
(Mr. PAUL asked and was given permission to address the House for 1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
1998 Ron Paul 75:1
Mr. PAUL. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to introduce the Freedom and Privacy Restoration Act, which repeals those sections of the Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act of 1996 authorizing an establishment of Federal standards for birth certificates and drivers' licenses.
This obscure provision, which was part of a major piece of legislation passed at the end of the 104th Congress, represents a major power grab by the Federal Government and a threat to the liberties of every American, for it would transform State drivers' licenses into national ID cards.
If this scheme is not stopped, no American will be able to get a job, open a bank account, apply for Social Security or Medicare, exercise their second amendment rights, or even take an airplane flight until they can produce a State driver's license that is the equivalent of conforming to Federal specifications. Under the 1996 Kennedy–Kassebaum health care reform law, Americans may be forced to present a federally approved driver's license before consulting their doctors for medical treatment.
My fellow colleagues, make no doubt about this, this is a national I.D. card. We do not need it. Please join me in an effort to stop it.

Nesting if Statements — C# if, if...else and Nested if...else Statement..
You can nesting if statements in C#. This is simply placing if statements inside if statements. You can make something as complex as the code that follows.
Let's try a program that uses nested if statements.
You are a teenage boy.
You are still too young.
Let's dissect the program. First, the program will ask you for your age (line 13). Line 16 asks for your gender. Then the program will hit the first if statement in line 18. It will test if you will past the first condition and that's if your age is greater than 12. If you pass this condition, you will move inside the body of the if statement. If not, you jump to the corresponding else block (line 34) of that ifstatement. Let's say you pass the first condition, and you are now inside the block of the first if statement. Inside it, you will meet a second nested if statement (line 20). It will determine if your age is less than 20. If you pass this, you will be taken into its code block, but if not, you will jump again to the it's else pair in line 31. Let's assume the value of your age is indeed less than 20, then you will be taken inside its body and there you will encounter yet another if statement (line 22). This will look at your gender and if it is "male", then you will execute the code inside the body of the 3rd if statement, if not, it will execute the body of the else statement (line 26). The nesting ends there. If possible, avoid so much nesting of if statements. This makes your code very confusing to read. You can avoid using too many nested if statements using logical operators.
