NYPD releases bodycam video of confrontation that left officer dead by friendly fire

NEW YORK (1010 WINS) – Police bodycam footage from a deadly friendly fire incident in September shows NYPD officers struggling with an armed man outside a Bronx housing project before shots rang out and an officer was killed.
The footage, which was released by the NYPD Friday, shows 33-year-old Officer Brian Mulkeen grappling with the suspect, 27-year-old Antonio Williams, and shouting frantically moments before his death.
Warning: The following video is graphic.
"He's reaching for it! He's reaching for it!" Mulkeen can be heard saying in the newly released footage. A barrage of gunshots are then heard as Mulkeen continues to scuffle with Williams.
Police said six plainclothes officers fired 15 rounds during the early morning confrontation at the Edenwald Houses on Sept. 29.
The altercation left Mulkeen, a seven-year veteran of the force, and Williams, a convicted felon who was on probation for a drug arrest, dead.
Mulkeen was shot twice by other officers—once in the head and once in the torso, according to police.
The suspect's loaded .32 caliber handgun was recovered at the scene, police said, adding that the gun had not been fired.
"Make no mistake, we lost the life of a courageous public servant solely due to a violent criminal who put the lives of the police and all the people we serve in jeopardy," NYPD Commissioner James O'Neill said at the time.
Mulkeen's death echoed that of Detective Brian Simonsen, who was killed by friendly fire in February.
Simonsen was hit once in the chest by crossfire as he and six other officers fired 42 shots at a robbery suspect who charged toward them and mimicked pulling the trigger of a fake handgun.
In more than 6½ years with the NYPD, Mulkeen made 270 arrests — many of them for felonies, including possession of illegal guns.
Mulkeen, who lived in Yorktown Heights with his girlfriend, an officer in a different Bronx precinct, started his law enforcement career as a dispatcher for the police department in Tuxedo, a town near Monroe. He joined the NYPD in January 2013.

How Dave Grohl Switches Off From Making Music
X-Ray 2002
"I might see a flick or go swimming but I completely surround myself with music every day. Right now, it's my three weeks off before I go out on tour for a year. So what do I do?
Talk About My Career
"I think it all just comes down to really wanting to do it. If I was selling cellular phones, I'm sure I'd have a nice two weeks off in Catalina, but I'm proud of our music so it's worth spending time with it every day."
Hang Out With Queens Of The Stone Age
"I don't really go out any more - every once in a while I'll come down to a bar and hang out with a bunch of friends, but when Queens aren't in town there really aren't many people to hang out with. They're playing tomorrow. It's the first time in a long time I'll be able to watch the band. It's more fun playing with them, but thay have a new drummer now. You don't want to mess with that relationship. Drummers are touchy. They're the butt of every joke."
You've done your bit for drummers' rights, though.
"I've had a few rallies and parades, yeah. Drummers support groups, trying to empower a nation of drummers dying to be frontmen."
"I draw, but nothing serious. I was more involved with the art programme at my high school than anything else. It's nice to sit down with a blank page and let yourself spill onto it. It's nothing I'd want anyone to see. It's not Guggenheim material."

Q: Excel VBA Worksheet Function "Filter" has "Type mismatch" error Below is my attempt at filtering "0" from my list of values. When assigning "result" it gives me the error "Run-time error '13': Type mismatch".
Function FilterVals(list_of_vals As Range)

Dim result As Variant
result = Application.WorksheetFunction.Filter(list_of_vals, list_of_vals <> 0)
FilterVals = result

End Function

I think the error may be within this syntax "list_of_vals <> 0".
"A1:A5<>0" works fine in an Excel Sheet, but perhaps not so simple in Excel VBA...

A: In using Worksheetfunction.Filter, the second argument has to be an array of {True, False,..}, oriented properly (i.e. vertical or horizontal depending on what's being filtered) for your argument.
One way of producing that, in your code, might be:
result = Application.WorksheetFunction.Filter(list_of_vals, Evaluate(list_of_vals.Address & "<> 0"))

assuming list_of_vals is a 1D array

A: I needed to filter based on a cell value.  I tried Ron Rosenfeld's approach as is, but it needed tweaking.  This worked:
Dim result() As Variant

With WorksheetFunction
    result = .Filter(.Transpose(Evaluate(list_of_vals.Address)),_
    .Transpose(list_of_vals.Address & "=" & criteria_cell.Address)))
End With

A: I played around with this a bit more, and think I understand it pretty well now.   Here's a test sub to show the results of my exploration. For data, place the following starting in A1.

The Complete Leopold Godowsky, Vol. 1 CDR (NO PRINTED MATERIALS)
Columbia and Brunswick Recordings, 1913-1922
52046-2 (2 CDs) | $ 36.00
Note: Original CD set is Sold Out; you will receive a CDR Version
Leopold Godowsky (1870-1938), known to pianophiles as "The Buddha of the Keyboard" and "The Apostle of the Left Hand," was one of the great geniuses in pianistic history, earning the highest esteem as both performer and composer. Virtually self-taught, he concertized all over the world until felled by a stroke at a London recording session in 1930. Godowsky was praised for his effortless technique and the remarkable tonal subtlety of his playing. Godowsky's recorded legacy extends from 1913 to 1930 and includes discs made for both American and British Columbia as well as for Brunswick. Until now there has been no systematic, comprehensive reissue of his recordings. Marston is proud to present a Complete Godowsky series in three volumes, arranged chronologically by recording date and utilizing the best available original copies. Many items, including test pressings, appear on CD for the first time.

Wellborn.
Leopold Godowsky was born in 1870 in the small town of Sozly, near Vilna (now Vilnius), at the confluence of the Polish, Russian, and Lithuanian borders. There is little evidence that he underwent any kind of extensive musical education. He briefly attended classes in Berlin around 1884, then traveled to Paris where Camille Saint-Saëns gave him a limited amount of musical advice. Meanwhile Godowsky began establishing a reputation as a formidable pianist in a wide repertoire, performing in several European cities and making his official American debut in 1890. A sensational Berlin debut ten years later attracted much attention. Godowsky also maintained a constant interest in teaching and composing. During the 1890s, for instance, he held important pedagogical positions in Philadelphia, New York, and Chicago. Following his 1900 Berlin concert, he set up residence there and was in great demand as a teacher. At about the same time Godowsky embarked on a series of remarkable compositions that carried the polyphonic aspects of piano technique to new heights. Chief among these is his extensive series of Studies based on the Chopin Etudes.
From 1909 until the outbreak of World War I, Godowsky lived and taught in Vienna. He then moved permanently to the United States with his wife and four children. He traveled and performed widely on several continents, continuing his master classes and compositional pursuits. In addition to further transcriptions and paraphrases, Godowsky's output embraced numerous original compositions, both large and small. At a 1930 recording session in London, he suffered a stroke that effectively ended his public career. The final phase of Godowsky's life was marked by disillusionment, owing to further personal tragedies. He died in New York in 1938.
Leopold Godowsky was unquestionably one of history's greatest pianistic geniuses. Harold Bauer called him "the master of us all." The critic James Huneker wrote that Godowsky is "the superman of piano playing. Nothing like him, as far as I know, is to be found in the history of piano playing since Chopin." Perhaps most impressive of all are Josef Hofmann's words to Abram Chasins after an evening at Godowsky's home: "Never forget what you heard tonight; never lose the memory of that sound. There's nothing like it in this world."
In spite of the fact that Godowsky's playing was held in the highest esteem by his peers, his disc recordings have received surprisingly little attention. Instead, Godowsky is primarily appreciated today for his ingenious transcriptions that pushed piano technique to levels hitherto unimagined. The argument most frequently presented against Godowsky's recordings is that they are (supposedly) dull, uninspired, and not representative of the pianist. Yet few would disagree that Godowsky's 1926 recordings of two of his own Schubert song transcriptions ("Morgengruss" and "Gute Nacht") and his 1929 performance of Grieg's Ballade are some of the greatest treasures of the recording era.
It was said that Godowsky played at his best only at small, informal gatherings rather than in the concert hall. A colleague of the violinist Carl Flesch wittily stated "Godowsky's aura extends only two yards." For the general public, Godowsky's playing was something of an enigma. Cognoscenti and professionals could appreciate his immaculate mastery of the instrument, but such appeal proved elusive to the average concertgoer. A lack of public enthusiasm was not always the case for Godowsky, however. His debut in Berlin in 1900 was a success of a kind rarely seen before. He later wrote about the recital to his friend W. S. B. Mathews, "The success was greater than anything I have ever witnessed…I don't exaggerate the success—I can never do justice to it!"
Unfortunately, the confines of the recording studio did not appeal to Godowsky. He equated making records with "nerve-killing tortures" and found the recording process to be "a dreadful ordeal." In a 1938 letter to Paul Howard, founder of the International Godowsky Society, he flatly stated, "Do not judge me by my records!" In that same letter Godowsky lamented the primitive state of recording technology and the extra-musical obstacles the performer was faced with. "The left hand had to be louder than the right hand; the pedal had to be used sparingly and not at all when the hands were close to each other... The fear of doing a trifling thing wrong… How can one think of mood and emotion!" Performers, however, can be their own harshest critics, and, as already pointed out, Godowsky's finest recordings are the work of a master pianist.
Perhaps the most startling aspect of Godowsky's records is his tendency to alter the score where he felt improvements could be made. These modifications were not the result of any callous attitude towards the composer. Godowsky, in fact, believed it was a performer's duty to know by memory every single note and marking in a score, and he was known to explode in anger when he felt a performer had neglected his duty in this area. But as Abram Chasins explains in his book Speaking of Pianists, "Once you knew what was in a score, however, he would delight in showing you dozens of places where changes would make the piece 'sound better'–altering harmonizations and the disposition of voices, removing parallel fifths or octaves, or, especially, completing some contrapuntal line that the composer had abandoned…. In his philosophy, rewriting was really a service to the composer—who might not have thought of such a good idea—but inattention was ignorance and disrespect." Throughout Godowsky's recordings one finds such changes. Some are minor, audible only to someone thoroughly familiar with the work, whereas others can be radical, such as completely rewriting the ending of a work. No attempt has been made here to systematically list every alteration Godowsky makes, though an exhaustive listing is a project worthy of future consideration.
Godowsky's earliest records—those recorded for the American branch of Columbia Records between 1913 and 1916—are generally considered his least successful, yet even in these there is much of interest. His recordings for the Brunswick label benefit from a somewhat improved recorded sound—Godowsky's singing tone can be better heard and he is able to use a wider dynamic range. His very first recording, the Mendelssohn Song Without Words nicknamed "May Breezes," [CD 1, Track 1] is masterful. Taken at a leisurely tempo, it is full of subtlety and nuance. His loving phrasing, tender hesitations, delicate colorations, and melodic yearning result in a deeply touching performance. The "Spinning Song" that follows [CD 1, Track 2] is a more careful rendition notable for its rewritten ending. Whereas in the "Spinning Song" the score modifications are limited to just the ending, they occur throughout Godowsky's performance of Liszt's "La Campanella." [CD 1, Track 3] In altering this work he was hardly alone; Ferruccio Busoni often played and was soon to publish a significantly revised version of La Campanella, and Ignaz Friedman, in his recording of the work, took Busoni's version and adorned it even further.
Godowsky's two recordings of the Chopin Waltz in C-sharp Minor [CD 1, Track 9] [CD 2, Track 12] (a third version will appear in a future volume) show completely different aspects of the pianist. The earlier recording is much more successful. Godowsky plays convincingly from the onset. In the work's middle section he employs considerable rubato and expression. At the return of the 'B' section, Godowsky chooses to emphasize the notes played by the right hand thumb, thus creating an inner musical line. The highlighting of this particular line was common among nineteenth-century pianists (Sergei Rachmaninoff, Mischa Levitzki, Josef Hofmann, and Raoul Koczalski are just a few of the other pianists whose followed this practice), but Godowsky takes things one step further by adding notes to continue the line until the phrase ends. His later disc of the work demonstrates a curious aspect found in some of Godowsky's recordings—a tendency to begin in a very straightforward manner only to become more musically involved as the performance proceeds. In this second recording, the opening is stiff and heavy-handed. He continues to play in this manner until the work's middle section, where he finally starts to exercise some expression and freedom. At the return of the 'A' section the playing is considerably more expressive than at the opening. Godowsky's interest is now aroused, and he emphasizes inner voices, brings shape to the melody, and even surprises us with his varied dynamics.
The need to limit each recording to four and a half minutes so as to fit on one side of a record forced Godowsky to make brutal cuts to lengthier works. This sort of compositional mauling must surely have irked the composer-pianist, and in these abbreviated renditions Godowsky often sounds completely uninvolved. The Chopin Polonaise in A-flat [CD 1, Track 6] is a case in point. The introduction is cut, Godowsky is forced to invent an abrupt transition from the famous left hand octaves section back into the opening theme, which, by means of another cut, quickly leads into the work's coda. There is nothing "heroic" about the playing; Godowsky is merely going through the motions. The Verdi-Liszt Rigoletto Paraphrase [CD 1, Track 26] suffers a similar fate. Once again the pianist is forced to make cut after cut. Godowsky did record this work again (in 1926), and that less severely truncated version will be included in a future volume.
Another observation one might draw from listening to a vast selection of Godowsky's recordings is that his performances of non-standard repertoire often fare better than his renditions of their famous counterparts. Perhaps Godowsky was bored with the standard repertoire. Perhaps he found it more inspirational to bring something lesser known to the public. Whatever the reason (it may simply be coincidence), the less familiar pieces are often played more persuasively than the familiar ones. Chaminade's The Flatterer [CD 2, Track 17], for example, comes to life in Godowsky's hands. In Rubinstein's Serenade [CD 1, Track 18] he imparts a wonderful speaking quality to the left hand and utilizes a rubato full of expressive hesitations. Henselt's Gondoliera and "Si oiseau j'étais" [CD 1, Tracks 21-22] are both performed in an effective, poetic manner. On the other hand, some of the familiar Chopin works receive less than exemplary treatment. The Prelude in D-flat, op. 28, no. 15 "Raindrop" [CD 1, Track 4] has a few moments of expression but is mostly flat (its central section is particularly wooden). The Chopin Waltz in G-flat [CD 1, Track 11] has some noticeable ritards in its middle section, but overall sounds uninspired. Thankfully, not all of his Chopin performances are disappointing. The Berceuse [CD 1, Track 12] exhibits wonderful fluency and control, the Waltz in A-flat, op. 42 [CD 1, Track 17] is lively and energetic, and his performance of Fantasy-Impromptu [CD 2, Track 16] is especially fine in the outer sections.
We are extremely fortunate that so many of Godowsky's test pressings have survived. Whereas among Godowsky's commercially issued 78s there are almost no performances of his own compositions or arrangements (only the aforementioned two Schubert song transcriptions), several can be found among his extant unpublished records. Home, Sweet Home (presumably arranged by Godowsky) [CD 2, Track 15] exhibits some of his most tender playing. His Star-Spangled Banner arrangement [CD 2, Track 6] is bound to raise some eyebrows with its unusual harmonies. Hunter's Call and Military March [CD 2, Tracks 13-14] are the last two pieces of Godowsky's "Miniatures" for four hands. The second pianist in these spirited performances is thought to be Leopold Godowsky II. Humoresque [CD 2, Track 2], also part of the Miniatures for four hands, is heard here in Godowsky's published two-hand arrangement. Curiously, the Albéniz Tango [CD 2, Track 10] is not performed in Godowsky's then soon-to-be-published famous arrangement.
The early Godowsky discs presented here, confined as they are to the shorter pieces from his repertoire (and to the limitations of the acoustical process), nonetheless reveal a good deal of the refined musical taste and tonal subtlety that were characteristic of his pianism. His recordings often benefit from repeated hearings, as their subtleties are not always immediately apparent. There are of course those (the Schubert-Tausig Marche Militaire [CD 2, Track 9], for example) that impress at once. Future volumes of this edition will reveal additional facets of Godowsky's playing.

A Note from the Producer
Leopold Godowsky's commercial disc recordings extend from 1913 to 1930. They may be divided into three groups: American Columbias, 1913-1916; American Brunswicks, 1920-1926; and British Columbias, 1928-1930. Until now there has been no complete, systematic reissue of these recordings. The present series of Marston CDs provides a comprehensive chronological survey of Godowsky's 78-rpm discs, drawing upon the best possible source material. In the case of the Brunswick releases, a rather large number of alternative takes has survived in the form of test pressings. Most of these seem to have been rejected on technical or musical grounds. In most instances they represent repeat performances of repertoire that was approved for release; in one extreme case, there are no fewer than seven attempts at MacDowell's Witches' Dance. We have endeavored to include as many alternative takes as possible in this series.
In the accompanying track listing, the designation "unpublished" refers to items not issued during Godowsky's lifetime. However, several of these subsequently appeared on various LPs and/or CDs.
Any assessment of Godowsky's recorded performances presents a complex picture. The extent to which these discs accurately reflect his pianistic stature and artistic ideals has been the subject of much discussion. As with any performer who recorded extensively, some Godowsky discs are more impressive than others. However, as with his colleagues Hofmann, Rachmaninoff, Friedman, et al, the purely documentary value of offering his discography in toto cannot be denied. Only after thoroughly examining Godowsky's complete output, along with critical appraisals of his playing by those who heard him in public and in private, can we approach a realistic evaluation.
A more detailed biographical sketch of Godowsky, along with a works list and discography, may be found at www.godowsky.com. Another useful website is www.leopoldgodowsky.com, which provides further details on many aspects of his life and career. As of 2004, only one full-scale biography has appeared in print: Godowsky: The Pianists' Pianist by Jeremy Nicholas (Appian Publications, 1989).

← What did you call me?
I have found myself doing some bizarre research while writing. My primary WIP has a healer as the MC. In order to properly portray the healing process, I found myself browsing images of dissected hands and legs. Because I am somewhat… let's say 'flighty' at times, I would be writing along and suddenly need to know where the blood vessels in a human upper thigh are routed. Thinking nothing of it, I pop over to google images and start looking at cut open legs.
My wife, seated next to me, was not pleased. Especially those times we happen to be eating dinner while I work.
I suspect that this might be partially why she agreed that I should have my own, quiet place to write in. Happily, I moved into the "den" to do my writing.
Consequently, when I needed to know which part of the brain is responsible for motor control functions (for a different story) and thusly started browsing pictures of disembodied and partially cut apart brains, nobody was there to complain.
Share your bizarre research tales below! Looking forward to it.
Lol on the dissected pictures. I actually went to an autopsy and can tell you it's not that bad.
Never been to an autopsy. I don't think it would bother me, though. I guess I am just not that sensitive to those sort of things.
Stephen King was right. I often tell high school students, especially the girls, if they can survive high school, they can survive anything.
The most interesting thing I've researched was how to break into a high security building. I watched so many heist movies and read about several security gizmos. It was a lot of fun! So if you ever need to break in anywhere… you should probably ask someone else!
I would suspect doing that kind of research spoiled several movies for you when you realize how unrealistic most of those scenes are.
The most I've done for writing research is when I traveled to the town where my historical romance takes place–Lebanon, TN. The hub and I took a 4 day vacation there, where I toured the town, the historical museum, library, and some old Civil War plantations in the area. It was quite fun, but I'm still not finished with the draft. I think I've got more work ahead of me for that one than I'm willing to put forth effort for right now.
Hey, that's an idea! My next story will be set in Australia. It is research, so I can write it off as a "business" expense, right?
Dare I ask why you selected Lebanon, TN? I drove past there once or twice, although I usually take I-24 through TN. I used to "commute" from SC to Smyrna, TN for work. On the up side, I got paid mileage, plus a good hourly rate while I drove!
Cool. I live about 20 minutes from Abbeville, SC. Birthplace of the Confederacy. They still have Jefferson Davis Memorial Park and Lake Secession.

"We must not be led to believe that the Disciplines are only for spiritual giants and hence beyond our reach. Far from it. God intends the Disciplines of the spiritual life to be for ordinary human beings: people who have jobs, who care for children, who wash dishes and mow lawns." Richard Foster, Celebration of Discipline. I have had quite a few people respond to the sermon series on discipline from Luke. Several talk with me as though I am sharing something beyond their ability to either understand or accomplish. Nothing could be further from the truth. Take the example I used Sunday. Penny gave me a hug as soon as she saw me. I get to feel the hug and her love for me, and it feels good. What we fail to realize in the moment is that Jesus takes that act of love and saves it for me, for when I need it, in deep places, when life is hard. That is not so difficult to understand and any one of us can give someone a hug, send a card of encouragement to a friend, stand by someone when others leave. We can all do that. It is just discipline. Every meal Herman and the men make, every bag Jamie and Pack a Sack fills, every card you all sent to Brenda, all of it gets saved, stored up, lined up for a powerful moment of worship. We do not do these things to get a thank you from those we help. We do it because we never know which act of love is going to be remembered in deep dark places when someone needs God.


El Berlingo just finished his service on the 1.6HD. All went really well, no problems until the very end! My fault, but help from the forum sorted me out. Needed to prime the fuel system and then off we went! Thanks to the contributors for that! O.K. just a few 'heads up' if you are travelling in Europe in your Berlingo this summer. I've mention some of these before but will repeat in case you missed it the first time. Don't forget that if you need to wear spectacles for driving you must have TWO pairs in you car (in Spain). These must not be one sunglasses (prescription) and one normal. They must both be for normal day/night use. Big fine if you don't conform. Also, In France, don't forget TWO breathalyser kits. These can be purchased (cheaply) on line or at petrol stations. In Spain, apart from bulb kits, triangles, headlight deflectors don't forget a luminous jacket for ALL those in the car. Spain is strict on this and the jackets (vests) should be in the car CAB not the boot for quick use. No driving in flip flops or shoes with no back support. Police love this one during tourist time! NO shopping bags in the cab! Especially on the front passenger seat...big fine! Do not cross double lines to turn left or right and always, always STOP at stop lines DO NOT just give way....another easy target with a big fine! In France,make sure your Sat -Nav does not have speed camera alerts on it. New French law! Beware of speed cameras on EXIT roads from motorways leading in to rest areas and petrol stations.
On a more pleasant note, the price of diesel seems to come down in price (in Spain) daily! Its currently at 1.32 eur/litre.
Temperature currently 32 degrees and sun, sun, sun!


I don't know if its because I have a serious case of SOMETHING that wont allow me to "embrace" the world of color blocking completely or what. I love the whole idea of having on complimentary colors (but all different) but I cannot get my self to actually WEAR IT! I swear it took me about 3 hours to "try" and put together a color-blocked outfit, but I couldn't. I had to match my shoes to my shirt, lol.
I really like the way this outfit came out and I hope you do to. Don't be afraid to comment!
Share with me your likes or dislikes about this outfit in the comments below!
Very cute! LOVE the shirt!!!!!! I've posted on color blocking, too.....I'm also afraid to try it. The "brightest" I get is w/accessories. I just can't get myself to put on multiple bright colors. LOL....I did laundry Monday....I have TONS of black tees/tanks! They seem to be my "signature style"! Anyways. Great post! You look fab!
@ShoeGirlI am glad to know its not just me *WHEW* lol...I notice that I have a lot of beige or cream shirts in my closet...*heading out to shop now*...Thanks so much Heather!


2019 is off to an incredible start! We have big plans for this year with even more stadiums and teams on board, rallying even more people behind the fight against modern-day slavery. When our eyes were first opened to the issue of human trafficking in 2016, we knew we had to take action. We thought about how we could engage on the issue to make a difference. Baseball is obviously a huge part of our lives, and we wanted to see if we could use our love of baseball to spread awareness and support nonprofit organizations fighting against human trafficking globally.
We began to form partnerships with nonprofits on the front lines, met with and listened to survivors, and learned the staggering statistics on human trafficking. We learned that modern-day slavery is the fastest-growing criminal industry in the world, and more people are in slavery now than ever before. People of all ages and genders can be affected – including young children. It's shocking when you are faced with the magnitude of the crisis.
We first met with Major League Baseball back in 2016 to share our desire to use baseball to make a difference, and they walked alongside us on our journey of learning more. We created Strike Out Slavery in 2017 and MLB has been supportive of our efforts from day one. We're so happy to announce that the MLB and Major League Baseball Players Association (MLBPA) have taken their commitment to the cause one step further as they demonstrate their leadership on the issue.
MLB and MLPBA announced that they are contributing $500,000, through 2021, to nonprofits focused on efforts to stop human trafficking. Strike Out Slavery is among the grantees, and we will be part of a special council deciding how to distribute the funds to various organizations. We are so grateful for this financial contribution to Strike Out Slavery as well as other leading nonprofits who are fighting this issue. Thank you to MLB and MLBPA for their leadership and firm commitment to this issue. We couldn't be more proud to have you as a partner.
We have even more exciting news! In addition to this generous gift, we will also be expanding our SOS Pre-Game Awareness Festival to additional MLB parks this year. This means more baseball fans will learn about modern-day slavery, connect with leading nonprofits, and enjoy a family friendly festival and postgame concert. Stay tuned in the coming weeks for the full lineup of events.

NEW DEBATES BROUGHT ABOUT BY CYBERSPACE IN HUMAN RIGHTS
Nezir AKYEŞİLMEN
Cyberspace, human rights, new debates, right to be forgetten, right to access internet
Cyberspace, which has begun to affect every aspect of our lives, has deeply affected citizenstate relations and has brought new opportunities and threats in the field of human rights. In current international human rights law, the state is the only actor for violation of human rights and again the only actor responsible for protecting human rights. But with globalization process, non-state actors played an active role in international relations, and this traditional state-centered human rights mechanism was questioned. Today, along with cyberspace, borders and distances have been eliminated, anonymity has increased and the scale has become insignificant with the empowerment of individuals who now have the capacity to cause enormous harm to other individuals, companies and even states. Holding the state the only actor responsible for the violation and protection of human rights in multi-stakeholder cyberspace will greatly undermine and harm human rights. In short, the actor, dynamics and mechanisms of the traditional international system have been inadequate in the cyber
ecosystem.
Cyberspace affects human rights both positively and negatively. In addition, it has brought new debates on human rights. Some of them are whether access to the internet is a human right, the question need for a cyber human rights law, the responsibility of non-state actors for human rights, the redefinition of privacy, the right to be forgotten, the question of the physical hacking of human brain and the question on whether internet rights are a new group of rights otr not? As technology evolves, it will be inevitable that we will encounter new debates and new problems in the field of human rights. Now, the task of experts is to find solutions to these new problems within the framework of human rights paradigm.

Romesh D. Kumbhani, Najib J. Majaj, Golbarg T. Saber, J. Anthony Movshon; Influence of contrast on the pattern direction selectivity of macaque MT neurons. Journal of Vision 2009;9(8):739. doi: 10.1167/9.8.739.
Neurons in area MT can integrate the motion of 1D image elements to signal the 2D motion of complex patterns. This pattern direction selectivity is typically studied using plaids composed of two identical, high-contrast gratings. We wondered how pattern motion computation would be affected when we reduced the contrast of one of the plaid's components to make "hybrid" plaids.
We recorded from 73 MT neurons in anesthetized, paralyzed macaques while presenting drifting gratings and plaids with several component contrast ratios. The tuning of MT neurons to gratings was unaffected by contrast, but their preferred directions for plaids were strongly dependent on the ratio of component contrasts. When the component contrasts were unequal, even when each component evoked a strong response, plaid responses were dominated by the higher contrast component. At contrast ratios of 4:1 or greater, the lower contrast component had little or no influence on the plaid response, even though it was effective when presented alone. This "winner-take-all" interaction between component gratings may be partly mediated by cross-orientation interactions in earlier visual areas, but appears also to involve interactions in MT.
In human observers, we measured the perceived direction of plaids with different component contrasts and found a similar trend. Subjects veridically perceived the direction of pattern motion when the component contrast ratio was 2:1. At higher contrast ratios, subjects showed a strong bias towards the direction of the higher contrast component. We conclude that the pattern motion computation in MT neurons depends on contrast, and may underlie the perceived direction of plaids composed of unequal contrast components.
This work was supported by NEI Grants EY02017 and EY04440, and by the Robert Leet and Clara Guthrie Patterson Trust.

Chinese entrepreneur develops premium vegetables
GUI Fujiang, a vegetable breeding expert at Shanghai Changzheng Vegetable Seed Company in Jiading, could easily have left his beloved vegetable farm in 1984, when the state requisitioned the land in his hometown and assigned them jobs in a local factory.
Back then, everybody thought being a factory worker was more comfortable and socially respectable than being a farmer.
Instead, Gui chose to continue growing vegetables at the Jiaxi Seed Farm. That year he was 40, and had been a vegetable breeding worker at Changzheng People's Commune production team for 20 years.
Shortly after, Gui took over Shanghai Changzheng Vegetable Seed Company. The supply channels of vegetables were limited. Therefore Gui tried to breed his own.
One thing led to another. Now his Changzheng company has more than 1,500 varieties of premium-quality vegetables. Gui visited New Jersey in the United States to study advanced farming technology in 2000.
He remembers one incident especially clearly.
An American farmer introduced them to an expensive variety of Chinese cabbage called "Shanghai Green," which was priced at 1,000 yuan (US$154) per pound. The variety originated in Shanghai was later acquired by a Japanese vegetable brand and perfected into a new breed.
"I was shocked that we didn't see the value of the variety and somebody else beat us to it," Gui recalled.
Upon getting back to Jiading, he immediately attempted to breed his own version of "Shanghai Green" with a higher yield and lower cost.
After multiple tryouts and failures, he eventually did it. The success was a huge milestone in his career, reminding him to keep learning and keep improving his breeding technology. While trying out different ideas and approaches, Gui enjoys looking up information in the library when he runs into problems he's never dealt with before.
Thanks to his perseverance and forward thinking, Changzheng became the first agricultural enterprise to have a phytotron — an enclosed research greenhouse used for studying interactions between plants and the environment.
Through the phytotron, scientists can control light, temperature, humidity, atmospheric pressure and gas composition manually. The time required for vegetables to grow is dramatically shortened.
"Normally, only state-run research institutes and the Agriculture Committee have phytotrons," says Gui. He can't hide the pride on his face. He hired professionals to install the 300,000-yuan (US$44,920) equipment and the phytotron was put into use in 2013.
As a farmer who didn't receive a formal college education, Gui knows in his heart that to achieve real technological breakthrough, he has to find professionally trained young talent. Right now, the company has employed a few college graduates, some of whom studied at prestigious schools such as Huazhong Agricultural University and China Agricultural University.
"We are looking to hire two more young people. I hope they can endure the long growing period that this job needs," says Gui. "It takes at least 10 years to cultivate a qualified vegetable breeding expert."

The A.T.O.M project
March 27, 2015 / Andy Poon
We finally get to see the ATOM suit in full action in the latest episode of Arrow 'Suicidal Tendencies'. I was lucky enough to get a chance to go on set today to see the ATOM suit up close in person. This was probably one of the coolest and definitely proudest concept I've ever done. I was shocked when I first heard about the producers' idea of an exosuit from costume designer Maya Mani. I literally paused and said 'EXOSUIT ? for TV? Like EXO-Skeleton armor? Really?' and the answer was 'YES'. I was in joy of course. Not often you get to participate and help conceptualize in such ambitious design for a TV show, and it will have to be a functional practical suit that Brandon Routh will wear. I'm more familiar with the traditional spandex Atom suit from the comic and cartoon, and have only see a picture of 2 from some of the latest New 52 comic version where he has some sort of armor and helmet. I tried to emulate the feel of the traditional blue and red pattern as much as possible while keeping it still more on the grounded sci fi armor. I was so excited when I saw a little lighting test they did on a 3D printed 1/6 Maquette of the suit on Brandon. When they finally release the first photo of Brandon wearing the suit in full lighting, I had the biggest geek out moment screaming in studio to get all my coworker to check it out. Lots of amazing talents did lots of hard work into this suit, I'm glad that most people feel really positive about it. Either you like it or not as the ATOM, it is a pretty cool suit on an amazing actor. Stay tune, more cool stuff to come!

Running backward - Reverse Flash


No, you're not seeing double! Twins Mark and Steve O'Donnell are both College Now Greater Cleveland (formerly Cleveland Scholarship Programs) alumni, and they found success as nationally recognized writers.
Mark and Steve, 1972 graduates of John Marshall High School, credit College Now advisor Carolyn Beeler with helping them get their start. With Carolyn's help, the twins gained acceptance to Harvard University, where they found success as writers for Harvard's renowned satire publication The Harvard Lampoon. After graduating from Harvard in 1976, Mark and Steve embarked on slightly different journeys to becoming renowned for their respective works.
After starting his career writing quips for cards at American Greetings, Steve relocated to New York, applying for positions as a writer for TV shows. In 1982, he was hired as a writer for David Letterman, eventually achieving the position of head writer for 158 episodes of Late Night with David Letterman. During his time as head writer, Steve developed the iconic "Top Ten List," a long running, well-received segment of the show. After leaving Late Night in 1995, Steve went on to write for The Dana Carvey Show, The Simpsons, Seinfeld, The Chris Rock Show and more, before being hired as head writer for Jimmy Kimmel Live! in 2003. After his departure from Jimmy Kimmel in 2008, he wrote for The Bonnie Hunt Show and Norm Macdonald Live. His sharp wit and excellence as a writer has not gone unnoticed, leading to Steve receiving four Primetime Emmys and 20 nominations. Today, he resides in Los Angeles, continuing to write for TV.
Mark found success in humorous writing, as well. After his graduation from Harvard, he went on to publish stories, essays and poems in Ploughshares, The New Republic, The New Yorker, The Atlantic Monthly, Rolling Stone, Spy and The New York Times, as well as books Let Nothing You Dismay (1998), Getting Over Homer (1996), Vertigo Park and Other Tall Tales (1993), and Elementary Education (1985). Most notable, however, is his work in theater. His plays include "That's It, Folks!," "Fables for Friends," "The Nice and the Nasty," "Strangers on Earth," "Vertigo Park," and the musical "Tots in Tinseltown." In 2002, he and collaborator Thomas Meehan wrote the book for the Broadway musical "Hairspray," which earned them the 2003 Tony Award for Best Book of a Musical. Mark and Thomas also worked on the musical adaptation for the show "Cry-Baby," earning them a 2008 Tony nomination for the same category. In 2012, Mark passed away at his home in Manhattan. He was 58.

Мице Лазаров Козароски - Јандре познат и као Мице Козар (Варош, 24. септембар 1910 − Нежилово, 19. децембар 1942) био је комуниста, учесник НОБ-а, један од најутицајнијих чланова радничког покрета у Македонији између два свјетска рата.

Биографија
Козароски је рођен у прилепском селу Варош 1910. године. Одрастао је у добростојећој породици. Породица Козар посједовала је велику обрадиву површину под виноградима и дуваном, укључујући и хан у старој чаршији. Након завршетка другог разреда гимназије, под притиском оца, прекида школовање и постаје помоћник своме у оцу у његовим пословима.
Самоиницијативно набавља социјалистичку литературу и постаје један од вођа комунистичког покрета у Прилепу и Македонији. Године 1934. постао је члан КПЈ и члан Мјесног комитета Прилеп. Временом, његов хан постаје мјесто окупљања напредне омладине. Радници, дуванџије, занатлије и интелектуалци из Прилепа, Крушево, Велеса долазе код њега са циљем да осмисле и кординишу своју борбу против стране пропаганде у земљи и фашизма у Европи. Козароски се пријављује као добровољац у Републиканску армију у Шпанском грађанском рату против Франка, али није успео да оде у Шпанију.

Његова политичка активност није прошла незапажено. У народу је стекао велико поштовање и симпатије, са друге стране његово дјеловање се није допадало властима. Као посљедица тзв. "Велике провале", акцијe полицијских снага за сузбијање комунистичког покрета (од краја 1935. до марта 1936. ухапшено 950 чланова КПЈ, међу којима и највећи дио руководства у земљи), неколико чланова Мјесног комитета је ухапшено и послато у затворе Краљевине Југославије. Мице Козароски је ухапшен 13. априла 1937. Након годину дана затвора у Велесу, Козароски се враћа у родни град и наставља са активностима. Ангажован је у Народном универзитету у Прилепу, КУД-у Коста Абрашевић (као секретар управе) и у Удружењу произвођача дувана, гдје је члан управе. Један је од оснивача овог удружења које и данас постоји и носи његово име.
У децембру 1940. године мобилисан је заједно са још неколико затвореника под изговором војне вежбе и одведен у логор на изолацију у Међуречје код Ивањице. У логору Козароски се активно дружио са Костом Рацином. У логору Међуречје остаје до његовог распуштања 27. марта 1941. године.

Са окупацијом Краљевине Југославије 1941, почиње кретање маса под окриљем КПЈ. Козароски се активно укључује и ускоро постаје борац партизанског одреда "Гоце Делчев" један је од шеснаесторице партизана који подижу устанак народа у Македонији. Учествовао је. 11. октобра 1941. у нападу на затвор у Прилепу. По инструкцијама Партије, Козароски напушта Прилеп и своју породицу, одлази у илегалу и дјелује у околини Велеса, у области Азота. Након распуштања одреда, Козароски се илегално преселио у Велес, гдје је остао до 18. јануара 1942. године. Слиједи период политичког дјеловања и регрутовања нових бораца у новоформирани одред "Димитар Влахов", где је Козароски био командир треће чете. Извршени су бројни напади на непријатељске снаге и инфраструктуру, а села испод Солунске главе, дуж железничке пруге Велес - Битољ: Богомила, Нежилово, Ораов Дол, Теово су правац њиховог дјеловања.

Бугарске власти су, подстакнуте догађајима у Десову 10. октобра 1942. године, предузеле велику офанзиву за уништавање партизанских јединица у региону. У ту сврху, на железничким станицама Клајман, Богомила, Гостиражни и Браилово искрцавају се 14. и 15. бугарска дивизија са око 4000 војника, појачана са 400 полицајаца из софијске полицијске школе и локалним контрачетницима. После вишедневних блокада и претреса села, бугарски окупатор није успео да уништи партизански одред, али је починио бројне злочине. Домаћи контрашети су се посебно истицали по суровости. Без могућности да ступе у контакт са својом логистиком и куриском везом са одредом, борци треће чете коју је предводио Мице Козароски принуђени су да се повуку у испод Солунске Главе. Козароски је 30. новембра 1942. године са два курира отишао на консултацију у базу одреда "Димитар Влахов" у Лисец. На састанку са руководством одреда Козароски се оштро се успротивио директиви да се одред повуче у Албанију. У пратњи Христа Думе (у то вријеме студент медицине), борца из прве чете овог одреда, Козарски је, 4. новембра, кренуо у своју чету која се налазила подно Солунске Главе. Наредног дана пресретнути су у селу Чаплеш, након што су издати од стране сеоског кмета, од стране бугарске полиције и контрачетника. Христо Дума је рањен и заробљен, а Козароском се губи сваки траг. У децембру је трећа чета одреда "Димитар Влахов" разбијена од стране непријатељских снага. Већина бораца је рањена и заробљена, а међу погинулима је била и  Невена Георгиева-Дуња као и Ристо Шајката.

Тијело Мице Козароског пронађено је тек у прољеће 1945. године када су два ловца из Горњег Јаболчишта на надморској висини од 2.500 метара пронашла дјелимично очувано тијело Мице Козароског. Тијло је идентификовано по одјећи, цокулама, сату, риђој коси и брковима. На локацији гдје је пронађено његово тијело, 2000. постављена је рестаурисана спомен плоча на подручију Долне Бабине Дупке која је девастирана 2017. године. Пиштољ којим је Козароски покренуо народни устанак данас је реликвија у меморијалном музеју "11. октобр" у Прилепу.

How is Bonanza Healthcare ensuring complete healthcare through its twin products Bonanza Medical Tourism and Bonanza Health Card? Please provide details.
The ethos of Bonanza Healthcare is creating an ecosystem that can help people take informed health decisions. Bonanza Healthcare started its journey in the healthcare sector through its Medical Tourism Product by connecting people from across the globe to quality treatments at accredited healthcare facilities at an affordable cost. There was a great deal of learning in the process over the years – understanding the lacuna, the non-transparent practices and policies followed by the Indian healthcare facilities, and the rising cost of medical treatments, led us to design and develop this unique product called Bonanza Health Card, which connects customers with the best diagnostic and wellness centres in India. It gives the biggest discounts on carefully curated wellness, rejuvenation and preventative health packages.
The Bonanza Health Card is designed to make sure that everyone can be in good health at all times. We believe that prevention is better than cure and that prevention should not be expensive. Members can get discounts on any of our packages or treatments any number of times during their membership. As we book the appointments and also send reminders, the customers need to merely show up. Use your free online account to store your medical reports, doctors notes and treatment history, so that you always have them at your fingertips.
With such a huge customer base, what measures are being undertaken by Bonanza Healthcare to ensure management of patient data and records? How far have you succeeded in educating patients on patient management skills?
Bonanza Healthcare has implemented all security aspects to preserve the confidentiality of its members data and records. All data stored in its servers which are uploaded by its members are completely encrypted and which can be accessed only by the member. There are access restriction features for reports and other data sharing which is at the sole discretion of the members and which cannot be accessed by any other third party without the consent of the member. All data passes through secured protocols to prevent any breach.
Patient management skills are a continuous and ongoing process and we at Bonanza Healthcare take it very seriously through development of the knowledge, values and skills germane to the standard safety procedures, fundamental examination procedures, etc. into the patient-client management model and applied through clinical simulations that incorporate clinical reasoning, patient/family education and evidence-based practice principles to provide a foundation for best practice.
What all technologies are used by Bonanza Healthcare to tame the growing threat of big data in the healthcare sector? Are you planning to adopt any new technologies to ensure not just storage of data but also data privacy?
Big data will be a big boon to the healthcare sector and is going to aid the entire health ecosystem in the coming days. At Bonanza Healthcare, we are very open to the implementation of newer technologies and process to enhance and aid the decision-making process to help customers in taking informed health decisions.
Protection of our customers data is of paramount importance to us and we are and we will be implementing all advanced technologies for data storage and data privacy.
Please throw light on how far service providers like Bonanza Healthcare have succeeded in increasing the rate of adoption of patient data management tools in tier-II and tier-III cities of India?
We still face a lot of challenges primarily from mobile network and data connectivity issues. For a seamless adoption and implementation of data management tools in tier-II and tier-III cities, the availability of good data speed is of primary importance. There is pretty decent acceptance of these tools in tier-II and tier-III cities and people are very open to look at it as an important substitute from their conventional practice.
As one of the stakeholders in Indian healthcare ecosystem, what will be you key recommendations for policymakers and service providers in terms of big data management?
Big data management is becoming an important ingredient in almost all aspects of heath ecosystems, be it clinical trials, studying of genes of different ethnicity, and implementation of mass healthcare programmes and various other health ancillaries. We feel that policymakers should look at creating a central depository of all health records and other aspects of healthcare through a common unified identity, such as a Permanent Account Number (PAN), Mobile and Aadhar number, which can be accessed by healthcare providers to provide correct, timely and accurate treatments to patients in India.


2D puzzle platformers are a dime a dozen yet here's one that actually brings some clever concepts to the table.
Wait, why the heck am I reviewing a game that came out a few months ago? Basically, TurtlePop: Journey to Freedom seemed interesting to me since it released yet I didn't have the time to play it when it debuted. Then, a freshly updated version arrived and I thought that now would be a good time to play through and review it. I'm happy to say: I'm glad I did.
So, what's TurtlePop: Journey to Freedom all about? You essentially control a variety of turtles in order to lead them to each stage's exit. However, there are plenty of dangers lurking around so you have to constantly judge each scenario in order to make sure no turtle is harmed. Each type of turtle controls differently and has their own abilities so as you progress; the gameplay becomes much more varied. The basic controls involve running and jumping but you can also control a genie who can throw power-ups at the turtles as well as bombs and tiles that are used to alter the stages so your turtles can advance. Being able to achieve a perfect run will require a lot of planning and quick thinking. There's nothing quite like simultaneously controlling a horde of turtles so they make it safely home.
TurtlePop's visuals are colourful and vibrant which helps establish its cheerful tone. Speaking of which, the whimsical music is sure to put a smile on your face as you guide your turtles to victory. Plus, the sound effects add a layer of satisfaction to each onscreen moment, especially the victory screens. My only complaint in the presentational department is that when things start getting chaotic, the graphics tend to become ambiguous and hard to follow. This can lead to a stray turtle biting the dust which can be very annoying.
Turtle Pop: Journey to Freedom features extremely well-integrated multiplayer in that you can play through the campaign's stages cooperatively with a friend and there are even battle mini-games for up to four players. When playing co-op, one player controls the turtles and the other commands the genie which substantially helps to streamline the gameplay. The party games include Crown Thief where you try and claim a crown for yourself, Lick 'Em Up where you lick turtles to convert them to your colour, and Turtle Clash where you compete to see who can get the highest score while sabotaging your opponents. The developers really went above and beyond to ensure that you can thoroughly enjoy TurtlePop with friends and these mini-games are impressively fun to boot.
In the main story campaign of TurtlePop: Journey to Freedom, there's a complicated system that involves 2 kinds of currencies (Sun Coins and Moon Pearls), levelling up, collectible cards, achievements, and even a shop. All of these aspects work together to help give you certain boosts when you play through the stages but man, is it ever hard to wrap your head around. Can't I just play the game without having to claim prizes, level cards up, assign items to the genie, and all that jazz? I understand that these mechanics could be rewarding RPG elements yet it's all so overly complex that I ended up interacting with the menus as little as possible.
My only other complaint with Turtle Pop is that if you're the kind of gamer who likes to rush through your games, you'll probably have a frustrating time here. This is because you have to really plan ahead and keep an eye on each individual turtle so no harm comes to them. If that sounds like too much responsibility then unfortunately, this is clearly not a game for you.
Deephi needs to look before she leaps!
TurtlePop: Journey to Freedom is one of those games that grows on you the more you play it. If you're willing to put in the necessary time and effort then you're sure to love going on an adventure with these hard-shelled heroes.

Super-fine milling with the Wirtgen cold milling machine W 200 – rehabilitating roads for the World Cup in Brazil

The rehabilitation work must proceed speedily and economically, minimizing the obstruction to traffic. To meet these requirements, the contractor Fremix Engenharia e Comércio Ltda. elected to use a Wirtgen cold milling machine W 200 with super-fine milling drum.
The World Cup finals start in Brazil on 12 June 2014. The first match – between Brazil and Croatia – will take place in the Arena de São Paulo, in the Itaquera district in the eastern part of the city. The stadium's timely completion has been a highly popular subject of speculation.
In contrast, the international fans do not seem to have spared much thought for whether transport conditions and the state of the roads will let them arrive at the stadium in time to see the match. Ensuring that this is indeed the case is a key task at all the Brazilian locations.
São Paulo city and road building contractors have launched a major infrastructure programme specifically for this purpose. The Raposo Tavares (SP-270) motorway connecting the federal state of Mato Grosso du Sul with Sao Paulo was one of those in need of repair.
Varying degrees of damage to the surface course at several points between Sorocaba and Araçoiaba da Serra meant that the road surface no longer displayed the required skid resistance. Rehabilitation was necessary, but without removing the complete roadway, as the base course was still undamaged.
The concessionnaire, Concessionária de Rodovias CCR via Oeste, enlisted the services of contractor Fremix Engenharia e Comércio Ltda. to rehabilitate a total area of roughly 154,000 m² with a traffic lane width of 3.40 m.
Super-fine milling work with the Wirtgen W 200 is undertaken on a mobile site. Traffic continues to flow on the adjacent lane. This minimizes the obstruction to traffic and prevents long tailbacks.
The solution: super-fine milling with a Wirtgen W 200
Which was the best way to adhere to the tight schedule without blocking the congested roads more than was absolutely necessary? For Fremix, the answer was to use a super-fine milling drum. This modified version of the standard cold milling method produces a level skid-resistant surface in just one pass. Further steps, such as paving a new surface course, are normally not necessary. Alternatively, a thin surface course can be paved at a later date.
Fremix Engenharia e Comércio Ltda. placed its entire trust in the tried-and tested technologies of the Wirtgen Group. Valmir Bonfim, Site Manager for Fremix, decided to use a Wirtgen cold milling machine W 200 with FCS super-fine milling drum LA 6×2 for the job. Unlike standard milling drums, super-fine milling drums have a considerably smaller tool spacing. As a result, they are fitted with considerably more cutting tools: while a standard milling drum has 168 cutting tools, the LA 6×2 is fitted with a total of 672 cutting tools.
"With the super-fine milling drum we can groove the pavement at intervals of 6 mm and to a depth of between 2 to 20 mm," explains José Marques Pereira, the man in charge of Fremix's road milling team. This creates a fine surface texture meeting all the requirements of a skid-resistant roadway in just one pass. "And traffic can continue to flow unimpeded on the adjacent lane while the work is in progress. What is more, the rehabilitated lane can be reopened to traffic as soon as the milling work is done."
For super-fine milling, the W 200 removes just a few millimetres of the pavement, eliminates any unevenness in the roadway and restores its skid-resistance. Since the reclaimed asphalt pavement is loaded directly onto trucks, the roadway can be reopened to traffic as soon as the milling job is done.
Additional features make the work easier
Greater cost-efficiency with FCS:
The "Flexible Cutter System" or FCS for short allows the milling drum to be changed quickly and easily. The milling drums on these cold milling machines can be accessed from the side and are simple to remove. It is lowered onto a drum carriage for easy withdrawal from the housing. The new drum is installed just as easily.
Quick tool changes allow the owner to use the machine for a whole variety of jobs. Several FCS drums with different working widths and tool spacings are available for the W 200. A drum change takes no more than two hours and the cold milling machine is transformed from a standard machine to a super-fine milling machine. The FCS greatly increases flexibility, creating a host of new potential uses and considerably boosting the machine's cost-efficiency.
Easy levelling:
LEVEL PRO supplies information on the levelling process and allows the operator to control the milling depth without leaving his platform. Intuitive, ergonomically designed operation with user-friendly graphic displays and function keys are hallmarks of the system. A controller analyses the data from various plug-in sensors, controls the machine's height adjustment and transmits the corresponding data to the control console. Outstanding milled results are constantly assured by the software with optimized control characteristic.
On to the next job without delay – thanks to its compact size, this light-weight large milling machine is easily transported and immediately ready for the next job on another site. The protective canopy roof can be folded down hydraulically at the push of a button for transport.
WIDRIVE:
The interaction between key components – diesel engine, travel drive, milling drum drive and belt drive, water spray system and height adjustment – is centrally managed by Wirtgen's intelligent WIDRIVE machine control system. In this way, WIDRIVE automates many functions which would normally be performed manually by the operator, thus permitting fuel-saving, environmentally-friendly milling operations.
PTS – always parallel to the surface:
The proprietary PTS system developed by Wirtgen guarantees precise adherence to the set working depth while relieving the operator to the greatest possible extent. PTS stands for "parallel to surface" and automatically ensures that the machine is dynamically aligned parallel to the road surface.
The front and rear crawler tracks are uniformly lowered in parallel. As part of the PTS system, a 4-fold full-floating axle immediately compensates any unevenness on the right and left, thus ensuring automatic alignment of the machine at right angles to the direction of travel. PTS also includes an automatic backup function for resuming at the required milling depth. In this way, machine operation is greatly simplified while maintaining the high levelling quality.
Super-fine milling instantly restores the road's skid-resistance so that it can immediately be reopened to traffic.
ISC (Intelligent Speed Control):
Intelligent speed control ISC comprises three basic functions:
Electronic traction control
Automatic adjustment of the speed of individual crawler tracks in bends
Optimized rate of advance
Traction control by the ISC minimizes the extent to which individual crawler tracks slip in tough conditions and guarantees optimum traction. What's more, ISC electronically adjusts the speed of the inner and outer crawler tracks in bends, thus reducing wear on the crawler shoes. ISC also adjusts the machine's advance rate to optimize utilization of the engine power.
The Fremix Team Leaders: José Marques Pereira (right) and Willian Souza Azevedo (left) are proud to have completed their project sooner than planned, thanks to the W 200.
Quick completion of the project
Valmir Bonfim, Site Manager for Fremix, is more than happy with his cold milling machine's performance: "The W 200 from Wirtgen delivered a performance that surpassed our expectations. We were able to complete the project well before the contractual deadline and release the job site for other work.
Due to its compact size and low weight, the W 200 can easily be transported directly to the next job site." Once there, it is swiftly fitted with a standard milling drum thanks to FCS, enabling it to remove the asphalt pavement to a depth of 5 cm over an area of 21,320 m². Finishing the roadway is the job of Willian Souza Azevedo and his asphalt paving team.
The concessionnaire is also overjoyed: awarding the contract to Fremix ensured rapid completion of the construction work. Fans from the western fringes and neighbouring countries – Paraguay, Bolivia, Chile – can now reach the stadiums in São Paulo in good time to cheer on their respective teams.
Unlike a standard milling drum with 168 cutting tools (top), the super-fine milling drum with 672 cutting tools (bottom) produces a very finely textured surface. The road can hence be reopened to traffic without further treatment.

"The Israeli Songbook" Is a collection of classic Hebrew songs performed by Noa and Gil Dor together with the Jerusalem Symphony Orchestra. In this beautiful album, Gil and Noa pay homage to some of the songs that have inspired them personally and molded Israeli culture and consciousness for the past 50 years. The deep, poetic lyrics and the beautiful compositions represent the best the Hebrew language's musical tradition has to offer.
The invitation from the prestigious Israel Festival to collaborate with the Jerusalem Symphony Orchestra, and the fact that Gil and Noa are celebrating 20 years of career, served as impetus for the whole project. The basic arrangements were done by Noa and Gil, and Gil and Maestro Ilan Mochiach are responsible for the orchestral arrangements. Ilan Mochiach conducts the orchestra. It was the goal of the artists to raise these beautiful songs to the highest possible level, in the tradition of the classic "standard" tunes. On this album, Noa's voice soars in some of the finest performances of her career.

I've recently been on the hunt for a reasonably priced eye cream as believe it or not I've never used an eye cream before, its strange as I always keep up a good skincare routine but never seem to think about pampering my eyes so I thought it was about time I started. I opted for Simples Soothing Eye Balm, I'm a huge Simple fan anyway, most of my skincare routine actually consists of Simple products because I have such dry/sensitive skin and as the eye balm was on offer for £2.66 instead of £3.99 in Superdrug it was a done deal.
The eye balm comes in a small 15ml plastic tube which at first glance looks like a sample size and got me wondering would I have to repurchase often if I liked the balm, but to my surprise you only need the tiniest amount, I mean less than a pea size amount does both of my eyes fine so a little definitely goes a long way with this.
• Pro- Vitamin B5 which actively restores, softens and smooths the eye area.
• Vitamin E moisturises to improve the skins condition around the eyes.
• Jojoba Oil soothes and protects.
• Shea Butter nurtures and replenishes.
• Bisabolol soothes and calms.
• No unnecessary or harsh chemicals so it won't upset even the most sensitive skin.
• The balm is dermatologically tested and approved.
Simple claim that their eye balm winds down tired eyes, soothes a nurtures and reduces puffiness and I have to say I totally agree. I've been using the balm every morning before applying my make-up and every evening just before bed, popping a teeny, tiny amount on the back of my hand and then using my ring finger I gently pat the balm around the eye area, I tend to concentrate more on my dark circles as mine can get quite bad. The balm does have a cooling sensation when first applied making it great for the mornings when your tired eyes need waking up and need an extra boost ha ha. Since using the balm I've noticed such a difference in my eyes appearance, the dark circles under my eyes are no where near as dark as they where prior to using the balm, I rarely wake up with puffy eyes anymore, the skin around my eyes feels so smooth and moisturised when I wake up in the mornings after I've used the balm the night before. I also love the fact that the balm doesn't interfere with my eye makeups lasting ability, it doesn't crease or move my concealer which is one of the things I was worried about but no, no problems there.
Overall I'm so glad I decided to try Simples Eye Balm out, it's really impressed me and works an absolute treat, I will definitely be repurchasing this over and over when I need to.
Have you tried Simples Eye Balm or do you have another eye balm/cream that's your favourite? I'd love to know.
I might give this a try! Simple products are always so good and I don't currently use any eye cream or anything.
Can't beat Simple for their skincare, and for the price! Not tried the eye cream though, think I may have to pick that up too!
