Electrical Connection Donates Services to Rebuild Electrical Systems in Home for Disabled Mother
Debbie Augustine thought she was on the threshold of stabilizing her life after recovering from a coma and a serious illness. The 47-year-old mother bought a home next door to her parents' house on Mitchell Avenue in St. Louis only to find it had serious electrical issues that would cost $4,800 to repair.
"My daughter and I had been through so much and it finally looked like we going to have a home of our own," said Augustine. "But the electrical issues were overwhelming, creating unsafe living conditions. I had limited resources to buy the home and nothing left for the needed repairs."
After buying the home in the 6900 block of Mitchell and learning of its electrical issues, Augustine met Jim Curran, executive vice president of the Electrical Connection, a partnership of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW) Local 1 and the St. Louis Chapter, National Electrical Contractors Association (NECA). Curran detailed Augustine's plight to the Electrical Connection board and within days the IBEW/NECA partnership agreed to pay for the electrical repairs.
"The Electrical Connection is such a blessing in my life," said Augustine. "IBEW/NECA rebuilt my electrical systems ensuring my daughter and I can live safely in our new home."
Augustine's medical issues began two years ago when she suffered a cardiopulmonary illness that put her in a coma for seven days. Forced onto disability, Augustine and her daughter, Dakota, moved in with her parents who lived on Mitchell Ave. in St. Louis. "I was grateful, but for my parents, myself and my daughter it was cramped quarters," said Augustine.
Augustine said she thought her prayers were answered when the home next door went up for sale. But after purchasing it, she learned it had significant issues with the electrical service into to the home, including improper wiring, a rusted out circuit panel, overloaded circuits, lighting and junction boxes in need of repair.
"I thought it was a dream come true, but it took the Electrical Connection to make that happen," said Augustine. NECA contractor Northwest Electric Co., Inc. teamed with IBEW to make the repairs on August 4, 2017.
This is not the first time the Electrical Connection has responded to a community need. For 14 years, the IBEW/NECA partnership has supported Rebuilding Together St. Louis. Since 2003, the partnership has donated labor and more than $825,000 in materials to improve more than 485 homes for low-income, disabled and elderly St. Louisans. It also supports Habitat for Humanity St. Louis in building new homes.
Members of the Electrical Connection provide safe and reliable electrical construction, maintenance, repair and replacement services across Missouri, the nation and the world. Find a contractor near you in the Electrical Connection contractor database.

Excerpt from Deadlier
The morning arrived dull, grey and cold. Red didn't notice because she was more in tune to her ancient intuitions at this moment. As an Ancient, she was in her role as Sentinel and had been for a few days. Luke was not overjoyed at the transformation that had occurred since her return from Elizabeth's dungeon, especially as she had banished him – not just from her bed, but also from the house - and Steve had been begrudging in his offer of a bed at his house until after the trial and end-proceedings.
http://i.imgur.com/gb1IjNK.jpg
In this most austere proceeding, the assembled dignitaries were sat in silence at the head of the hall. The tribunal was the most exceptional in recent times. No Wolf younger than four hundred years sat on this conclave, waiting for the proceedings to begin. Twelve jurors had been chosen but that is where the similarity to a human court ended. These Wolves were not sitting to determine the accused guilty – because as it was the Sentinel that had accused them - they were guilty until they could prove themselves innocent – the Jurors were there, as tradition dictated, to witness that the procedure was held in the proper manner.
Above the awaiting assemblage, in galleries on three sides of the hall, other Wolves were gathered. The younger or less influential Wolves – those not invited to participate in this most historic event - spoke in muted tones, creating an indistinct murmur that hung almost tangible in the air. Most had to stand as seats had been removed in order that more Wolves could attend. Many of the discussions ran into one another, one Wolf overhearing his neighbours' conversation and giving his input and then passing the information he had gleaned onto his group. Most were discussing the forthcoming trial, but what was also catching everyone's attention – congregation and Jury alike - was the fact that the three sat at the Head of the hall were Victoria – the Lycaeon herself - and the two Wolves flanking her, both of whom had not been seen since the Middle Ages and had almost passed into legend.
Jakob – former ruler of his own pack in Bavaria before swearing allegiance to the Lycaeon sat at her right hand, as fierce a protectorate of the legacy he had once opposed as any.
http://i.imgur.com/tU5Ujgb.jpg?1
And Niall – the ancient Celt and staunch supporter of Victoria - as he was with Anton before her - sat at her left hand.
Questions were asked amongst the audience as to who these two Wolves could be. Not many knew either by sight, but some knew of them and these Wolves were not slow at passing on the information.
Victoria and her advocates were studying reams of documents, maps and scrolls. They had each received copies of all documentation on agreeing to stand as arbiter and had been studying them for weeks. Red – or Hazel as she had to be referred to in her official capacity - had made comprehensive reports on all the accusations she had made, citing not a few Wolves as willing witness and others not-so-willing – all were compelled to attend, even though their written statement was enough. They looked up as the Custodian's Runner approached and awaited acknowledgement. Victoria nodded to him and he bowed in the proper manner, then he leaned forward to inform the trio: "The Custodian wishes to advise our Lycaeon and Elders that the Sentinel Exemplar is here and she is fully prepared."
Victoria answered, "Very well, our thanks to the Custodian. Are the accused assembled?"
"Yes Lycaeon, they arrived a short time ago."
Victoria nodded and the Runner left to return to the Custodian's side. Victoria nodded to the Custodian.
It seemed uncanny how the incessant drone that had been present, all at once was silenced in favour of an apprehensive stillness.
From a door in the only wall that did not have a gallery above it, a lone figure stepped out onto the floor and the hush detonated into derisive jeers and heckling.
Hazel ignored the insults and contempt, even the 'bitch' comments. Today she would hold herself in consummate superiority. Today the Prophesy came to another fork and it was of ultimate significance that the correct path was taken, the proper ceremonies conducted and appropriate respect to traditions and elders afforded. She had no way of knowing if any of her actions or reactions to particular circumstances could influence the outcome – of either this trial or the prophecy – and so she had decided to take whichever path was directed by using her knowledge and power as Sentinel and take the consequences for good or bad.
Hazel approached the Lycaeon's bench from the back; she skirted around, turned to face the table and halted a few feet from it to give a deep bow as mark of respect to Victoria, then turned to each of her colleagues and bowed to them, as she had to the Lycaeon. Victoria looked up, past Hazel at the howling mob and as one, they became silent once more. Then Hazel turned to the awaiting dozen jurors and faced them square on. The Custodian stood central between the Jury and the Lycaeon.
http://i.imgur.com/MOnci6N.jpg?1
"Sentinel, as representative of our ruling classes and emissary to our society we charge you to produce evidence and substantiation in order that our First Laws and bloodlines remain consistent, unimpaired and irrevocable. Can you?"
Hazel nodded once and said: "Yes." Then she held out the bulging folder of documents, copies of which, Victoria, Jakob and Niall already had. With a slight bow, the Custodian's Runner took the folder and placed it on the desk to the left of the Lycaeon where the Custodian would sit. Hazel took her place at a table to the right of the Lycaeon; the small table was bare except for a jug of water and a glass.
A gasp from the audience was heard and it seemed all but Hazel and the Lycaeon's table contributed to the sound. The three Wolves that had entered via the same doorway as Hazel were recognised by all attending.
Phillipe took the front, as youngest Wolf, then Darius.
With a deliberate and obvious measure of putting a greater distance between himself and the previous two, Emilio the Elder strode onto the floor, wielding his stick more like a weapon than a walking aid. His presence was what had elicited the gasp of surprise.
The three were directed to sit opposite the Jury. Four chairs had been placed and Darius and Phillipe sat alongside each other. Emilio, again with due consideration, sat apart from them and Hazel got the feeling that he would have moved his chair further if he could. Emilio looked at Hazel with a neutral stare, neither venomous, nor affable. Phillipe did not look at the Jury, Hazel, or his Lycaeon. He did see who the two flanking her were and could not prevent the disbelief from showing on his face. Darius glared at every one in turn, leaving his most malevolent stare until last – for Hazel. She saw him from the corner of her eye, but pretended not to notice.
The Custodian stepped to the centre of the room, facing the collected Wolves. His voice rang out clearly. "This trial will begin immediately. It will not cease until verdicts have been given on all three Wolves. Once the trail is ended, any judgements will be decided forthwith according to the crime - and be it execution, ostracism or acquittal - that too will be expeditious." Then he turned to the accused: "Phillipe Marchand, Darius Mauvoisin, Emilio Lovari the Elder: You are charged with Traitorous acts against Wolfkind. Poisoning. Murder. The manufacture of Throwbacks and most serious: Amassing an army in order to overthrow the Lycaeon and her Bloodline."
The watching Wolves were abuzz with excitement at the announcement of the charges.
Hazel was watching the accused, she saw the look on Emilio's face, it was a mask of absolute fury and he turned slowly to Darius and Phillipe. As the phrase goes: 'If looks could kill', there would have been no further need for the trial.


No BFG video cards .... they are pre overclocked!
Someone said about no Corsair XMS? ..... I beg to differ!
No, Dell, Emachines and DEFFO no GATEWAY!
Agr, sorry this should be in the LAST one!! about what hardware NOT to buy! sorry!
what the hell is this post for?
This should of been on another thred!
I'm not use to this type of forum!
what the hell is this thread all about?
Aubrey you should've edited this post and gave alink to the right one... Corsair's good. I like corsair, but if you're overclocking, which i don't think you are it's not the best, but for low oc itll do.


Rummo Mezzi Rigatoni, are of the same family of traditional Rigatoni, commonly used in Southern and Central Italy, with a smaller size.
The large diameter and ridges of Mezzi Rigatoni make it ideal for retaining sauces on the entire surface, inside and out.
Their size is great for chunkier sauces, as well as many baked casserole dishes.


Take one of the meandering pathways through the Westin, or walk up Seven Mile Beach and you'll come to the low concrete balustrade of the Beach House. Put your shoes on before you enter, but don't worry too much about tracking in sand. The floor is designed to resemble a hard-packed beach. After you sit down, prepare yourself for an exquisite dining experience. From the start the staff is attentive, but their skills are most apparent when asked about the menu. They always know the answer; they've tasted all the food.
Chef Michael Farrell who came to Grand Cayman by way of New Orleans, Denver, and Nantucket, has created a menu rich in regional remixes that express his experiences and shear knowledge of food and cuisine. Heading up a kitchen crew of 38, and with an abundance of resources behind him, every dish is a marvel of creative combinations. Order the rather unremarkable sounding local kale salad and you'll be served a finely chopped rendition of the dish with a tender, fresh presentation, but this one comes topped with a poached egg, paired perfectly with prosciutto and plums. The same skill with unpredictable pairings describe the crab and watermelon salad, which shares the plate with a little gathering of micro greens. Jumbo lump crab cake might seem too ordinary on such a menu, but this one is made without breadcrumbs or flour. The result is as light as air with hints of avocado and orange, presented as a heavenly mound that defies gravity and cascades onto the fork with the first bite.
You can combine small plates for a varied and extraordinary meal. Those in the mood for a bigger entrée can choose from the large plates of equally inventive dishes such as beef risotto with peas, baby carrots, and goat cheese, or Jamaican coffee crusted lamb sirloin with rosemary potatoes gratin. Though certainly not ordinary, this food is approachable and satisfying, and sourced fresh and organic whenever possible. An added feature of this menu, one that is not common but should be, is the suggested wine pairing for each dish printed just under the offering.
But this experience shouldn't end with your main course. The dessert chef makes an array of sweet finishes, and it would be wrong not to try one like the chocolate pop-up cake with pistachio ice cream and Grand Mariner crème anglaise. Made with Valrhona chocolate, the pop-up cake is served still warm in its own baking cup. Dipping the spoon through the crusty outer layer reveals a molten core of dark liquid so exquisite it defies description.

As you may or may not be aware, the Art & Feminism initiative is running a series of editathons at art institutions around the world.
We've had numerous requests (most at quite short notice), to assist in running events around the UK. WMUK staff will be supporting in person, but really we need at least one volunteer lead trainer for each (or some kind of superman trainer who could cover a couple if needed).
So far we have:
Institution Location Day Date Trainer
National Library of Wales Aberystwyth Friday 04/03/2016 Jason Evans
Institute of Contemporary Arts (ICA) London Saturday 05/03/2016
Tate Britain London Saturday 05/03/2016
Leeds Central Library Leeds Saturday 05/03/2016 Katherine Bavage
Dulwich Picture Gallery London Tuesday 08/03/2016
Goldsmiths London Saturday 12/03/2016
Scottish National Portrait Gallery Edinburgh TBA TBA Sara Thomas
Women of the World Festival at Southbank Centre London 8/03/2016 - 13/03/2016
As you can see we're covered everywhere except London. So if anyone is free on one or more of the dates above, we're happy to cover travel expenses etc.
Regarding times, the weekend events would be morning/afternoon.
I have yet to determine the times for the Dulwich Picture Gallery one.
The content will vary between institution, though most will be referring to the existing redlink lists created (or not created) here. Having spoken to the curators and academics who are leading on these events, I've asked them to research the areas they see as needing more coverage on Wikipedia, and to try and find verifiable sources to support these.
Additionally, you will see on the list, there is the Women of the World Festival at the Southbank Centre, who have asked us to be involved and run an editathon.
We haven't been able to pin down the day of that with the organisers, but it would be dictated somewhat by when a trainer could be available, so let us know if there's a date that could work for you.
Please let us know if you'd like to support any of these events, and we'll go from there.

Q: How to set the name tag in a ngFor* loop dynamically? I'm trying to set the name tag dynamically with values from a ngFor loop. It's no problem to assign a value to the id tag, but for the name tag it does not work.

        <input type="text" id ="{{i}}" (change)="check($event)" name ="{{i}}" [(ngModel)]="s.ZBez">

The $event, which I pass onChange to the check() function has an id equal to i, but name is always an empty string. Why are they different and how can I set the name dynamically?

A: You need to use it like [attr.ATTR_NAME] and without double braces.
<input type="text" [attr.id]="i" (change)="check($event)" [attr.name]="i" [(ngModel)]="s.ZBez">

You can check this official docs about template syntax for more info:
https://angular.io/guide/template-syntax
Update
As @ConnorsFan stated in the comment, property binding should work as well. I created a stackblitz project with all possibilities. Please check it out:
https://stackblitz.com/edit/angular-ckp8fz

A: You can try [name]="i"
<input type="text" id ="{{i}}" (change)="check($event)" [name]="i" [(ngModel)]="s.ZBez">

EDIT: For id you can try same [attr.id]="i"

Two Whales Wash Up Dead on a Coast in Germany Due to Plastic Waste in Their Stomach
Alternative Health Universe February 15, 2019
Plastic pollution is killing the environment faster than most people think. It's in the earth and oceans, destroying whole ecosystems while we continue adding fuel to the fire. Not long ago, two sperm whales washed up dead on the North Sea shore and scientist were immediately called to examine them. The autopsy revealed some shocking findings.
A national sea park from Schleswig-Holstein (Germany) reported that the stomachs of both adult whales were full of plastic, including car pieces, barrels, and a fishing net. It's probably what killed these poor gentle giants and another sign that plastic pollution is far more dangerous than we think. We're throwing away too much plastic and it's polluting the oceans, resulting in these bizarre deaths.
What Did the Autopsy Find?
The findings are indicative of our dependence on plastic. There's just too much plastic waste in the oceans, destroying ecosystems and killing thousands of marine animals. The larger pieces can block and pierce the gut, but it's the smaller ones doing the most damage. They can make an animal suffer and starve, and no soul should experience that.
Unfortunately, this is not the first case of whales dying from plastic pollution. In 2011, a young whale washed up dead on the shores of Mykonos, Greece, and the autopsy revealed the same as in the latest case. His stomach was full of plastic waste, with more than 100 plastic bags found within.
National Geographic reported that the whales died from heart failure when they ran into the shallow waters. They couldn't support their own weight and that was what killed them in the end. Sperm whales usually migrate from tropical climates to colder waters while searching for squid at depths of 1,000+ m.
Danny Groves from the Whale and Dolphin Conservation project says that the discovery of plastic in the whales' stomachs is disgusting and concerning. We are throwing too much plastic nowadays, with more than 80% of it ending up in oceans. With so much waste in the water, it's inevitable for some animals to consume it, which eventually kills them.
Ocean pollution should be everyone's top concern, yet we all ignore it, unaware of the consequences it can bring. Recycle people, before it's too late to save mother Earth.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Jan. 03, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) – Constellation Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: CNST), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company using its expertise in epigenetics to discover and develop novel therapeutics, today provided an update on progress in the MANIFEST Phase 2 clinical trial of CPI-0610 in myelofibrosis (MF). The Company also reviewed its 2018 accomplishments and announced its data disclosure plans for 2019.
As of December 10, 2018, each of the first four ruxolitinib-resistant second-line MF patients in MANIFEST remained on study. The two patients treated with a combination of CPI-0610 and ruxolitinib (i.e., CPI-0610 added onto existing treatment with ruxolitinib) have been treated for over 16 months. The two patients treated with CPI-0610 monotherapy have been treated for over 12 months. Each of the four patients has shown a reduction in spleen volume and improved hemoglobin levels. One of the combination therapy patients was transfusion dependent before therapy and converted to being transfusion independent after CPI-0610 was added to the patient's regimen. As of our data cutoff, this patient's response has persisted free of transfusions for over 52 weeks. Additionally, bone marrow biopsies before and after treatment were analyzed for the two patients on monotherapy, and both demonstrated a one-grade improvement in bone marrow fibrosis score as well as associated improvements in hemoglobin and platelets. Taken together, these results suggest that CPI-0610 may be modifying the underlying course of the disease in these ruxolitinib-resistant MF patients.
The Company has now opened 16 clinical trial sites in the U.S., Canada, and E.U. and enrolled 18 patients in MANIFEST. Only one patient has discontinued treatment, which was due to a non-drug-related serious adverse event. The recommended Phase 2 dose of CPI-0610 in the MANIFEST study is 125 mg once daily (may be titrated up), which is below the maximum tolerated dose of 225 mg once daily. Furthermore, in a Phase 1 clinical trial of CPI-0610, the Company also showed that the dose-limiting toxicity of thrombocytopenia was reversible and non-cumulative. Taken together, preliminary data suggest that CPI-0610 may have a wider therapeutic window and the potential for a differentiated toxicity profile relative to some other BET inhibitors, based on their published data.
MANIFEST is an open-label Phase 2 clinical trial of the BET inhibitor CPI-0610 in patients with myelofibrosis (MF). MANIFEST is evaluating CPI-0610, either as a monotherapy or in combination with ruxolitinib, in patients with MF who are refractory to or intolerant of or have relapsed or lost response to the standard of care. Based on encouraging preliminary data, Constellation amended the design of each second-line cohort to stratify all patients enrolled in the study based on transfusion dependence status. In addition, the Company amended the design of MANIFEST to include a third cohort designed to evaluate treatment with CPI-0610 in combination with ruxolitinib as a first-line therapy in JAK 1/2-inhibitor-naïve MF patients.


Physics Potential of Long-Baseline Experiments - Download this document for free, or read online. Document in PDF available to download.
The discovery of neutrino mixing and oscillations over the past decade provides firm evidence for new physics beyond the Standard Model. Recently, has been determined to be moderately large, quite close to its previous upper bound. This represents a significant milestone in establishing the three-flavor oscillation picture of neutrinos. It has opened up exciting prospects for current and future long-baseline neutrino oscillation experiments towards addressing the remaining fundamental questions, in particular the type of the neutrino mass hierarchy and the possible presence of a CP-violating phase. Another recent and crucial development is the indication of non-maximal 2-3 mixing angle, causing the octant ambiguity of . In this paper, I will review the phenomenology of long-baseline neutrino oscillations with a special emphasis on sub-leading three-flavor effects, which will play a crucial role in resolving these unknowns. First, I will give a brief description of neutrino oscillation phenomenon. Then, I will discuss our present global understanding of the neutrino mass-mixing parameters and will identify the major unknowns in this sector. After that, I will present the physics reach of current generation long-baseline experiments. Finally, I will conclude with a discussion on the physics capabilities of accelerator-driven possible future long-baseline precision oscillation facilities.

OIC decries Israeli President's visit to Ibrahimi Mosque in Hebron
November 29, 2021 at 2:43 pm | Published in: Africa, Egypt, International Organisations, Israel, Middle East, News, OIC, Palestine
Israeli President Isaac Herzog on 29 October 2021 [Israeli Presidency / Handout/Anadolu Agency]
The Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC), on Monday, condemned a visit by Israeli President, Isaac Herzog, to the Ibrahimi Mosque in the West Bank city of Hebron to celebrate the Jewish festival of Hanukkah, Anadolu News Agency reports.
Herzog forced his way into the Mosque on Sunday to participate in a candle-lighting Jewish ceremony. He was accompanied by a large number of Israeli police forces and Jewish settlers.
In a statement, the Jeddah-based OIC decried the move as a "provocation of sentiments of Muslims" and a "continuation of Israeli assaults on the rights of the Palestinian people, their land and holy sites".
The pan-Muslim grouping said the Israeli President's visit "was part of Israeli plans to Judaise the Ibrahimi Mosque and tighten Israeli grip on it".
The OIC called on the international community to "act urgently to protect the holy and historical sites [in Palestine] and to force the Israeli occupation authorities to respect the sanctity of the holy sites."
READ: PA condemns new Israel settlements in Hebron
On Sunday, Sheikh Hefthi Abu Sneina, director of the Ibrahimi Mosque, said Israeli forces shut the Mosque and prevented Palestinian worshippers from reaching the site.
After the 1994 massacre of 29 Palestinian worshippers inside the Mosque by a Jewish extremist settler, Baruch Goldstein, the Israeli authorities divided the mosque complex between Muslim and Jewish worshippers.
UNESCO World Heritage Committee decided in July 2017 to include the Ibrahimi Mosque and the old city of Hebron on its World Heritage List.
Hebron is home to roughly 160,000 Palestinian Muslims and about 500 Jewish settlers. The latter live in a series of Jewish-only enclaves, heavily guarded by Israeli troops.

This week's Blast from the Past is one of the only photographs Christine Stacey has of her uncle Herbert Rice.
Looking handsome in his military uniform and lopsided cap, Rice is all smiles, truly unaware of what unimaginable horrors were ahead of him overseas.
"My uncle Herby was in a death march," said Stacey.
During World War II, German SS guards would force prisoners to evacuate out of one concentration camp into another. Over long distances and harsh climates and terrains, men, women and children would be forced to march for days.
If anyone were to fall behind, the guards' simple solution was to execute.
Rice entered service in 1943 and he was captured as a soldier in Germany and was held as a prisoner of war and placed in a concentration camp.
"The enemies held guns at them and marched them to a newer concentration camp – a bigger one," said Stacey.
The six-year war ended in 1945, with the Allied troops rescuing all prisoners. Stacey said her uncle survived the march and the war, but was never able to get over what he'd been through after his return.
While post-traumatic stress disorder is certainly not uncommon for veterans of the Second World War, Stacey said he was the only one she knew from the family who was ever severely bothered in the aftermath.
Rice had three brothers; Pat Stacey (Christine Stacey's father), Louis "Woody" Stacey and Leonard Rice, who served in the war, while his sister Elda Stacey was employed in the war department.
Leonard was killed in combat and buried overseas in Belgium. But Pat, Woody and Elda had all settled down with their partners, with the former two having children of their own as well.
After coming back from the war, Rice tried to do the same. He got married to a girl named Millie and they had four children together in Montreal.
For her uncle Herby, the drinking was much different.
The husband and wife separated and Millie took her four children away to Buffalo, New York, where her in-laws, Herby's parents, resided.
Without Rice, Millie had no choice but to work in order to support and raise her children. She went back to school and became a high school teacher and also worked at a computer company.
Rice met his brother Woody's sister-in-law and the two decided to wed.

The first variable concerns the quality of property decision making. The second focuses upon the mixture of uniform and diverse structures of rights and duties within property law. The third involves stability and flexibility, and the risk of turmoil and instability, within the property system. The balance of these three variables dictates that the breadth and depth of presidential governance of the property system should vary based upon differences among resources and contexts of ownership. Surprising as it may sound given our conventional understanding of what property law is and how it is made, we should not ignore presidential governance of property—not in how we teach property law or in how we write about it.
Food Law & Policy now enjoys a strong and growing presence throughout the legal academy. This Article introduces ten categories of original empirical data to document the field's vitality—including figures on law school courses, legal scholarship, clinical legal programs, and student societies at U.S. law schools. It details the past and present of Food & Drug Law and Agricultural Law alongside that of Food Law & Policy. The Article demonstrates that Food Law & Policy has proven to be a timely and vibrant addition to the legal academy and suggests next steps in the ongoing development of the field.
The limited literature analyzing the ODR movement has so far neglected the ethics of these emerging systems. Where should policy makers, business leaders, and societies draw the line between disputes that may be resolved online—potentially using an automated system—and those requiring in-person hearings? This Article seeks to begin the conversation about these questions by reviewing the current technological state of ODR and its use by companies—including eBay, Modria, and Cybersettle, among others—before moving on to consider ethical ODR issues including balancing such values as transparency, efficiency, and conflict dynamics. Finally, this Article makes suggestions for regulating this burgeoning industry, drawing from the interdisciplinary literature on polycentric governance.
While most circuits look at all these factors and engage in a true balancing test, the Seventh Circuit effectively bars all Contract Clause claims at their outset because of its narrow definition of the term "impairment." This Comment specifically challenges the Seventh Circuit's narrow interpretation of state "impairment" of contract and argues that 42 U.S.C. § 1983 is the most appropriate vehicle for making Contract Clause claims. The Seventh Circuit should adopt a three-pronged balancing test that would evaluate the reasonableness and necessity of a state's chosen course of action. Courts should examine whether a state's unilateral breach of a contract was reasonable and necessary to serve an important public purpose.


As of November 2018, the BMW i3 and BMW i3s are now able to cover a distance of 260 kilometres*** in real world driving conditions which represents an almost 30 per cent increase in range.
Since the market launch of the BMW i3, the storage capacity of its high-voltage battery has been doubled, thereby increasing the car's range as well. At the same time as the introduction of the new battery, a new body finish, a new colour for the optional interior design Loft and adaptive LED headlights with matrix function for the high beam are also available for the BMW i3 and BMW i3s. In future, a sports package will be available for the BMW i3 that includes black wheel arch surrounds and a sports suspension with specific dampers, springs and stabilisers, lowered suspension, a widened track and 20-inch light alloy wheels. The optimised guidance system in the tile design of the iDrive operating system is now available in conjunction with the optional navigation system Business. In future, the options telephony with wireless charging and wireless LAN hotspot will also be available for the BMW i3 and BMW i3s.
The combined power consumption of the BMW i3 (120 Ah) is between 13.6 and 13.1 kWh per 100 kilometres*, while the BMW i3s (120 Ah) has a power consumption of 14.3 kWh per 100 kilometres*. The high efficiency of the electric motor and the enhanced battery capacity result in a range that is nearly 30 per cent higher than that of the predecessor models. The range of the BMW i3 (120 Ah) is 380 to 395 kilometres* (previously 290 to 300 km) according to NEDC, and 285 to 310 kilometres** (previously 235 – 255 km) according to WLTP. For the BMW i3s (120 Ah), a range of 360 kilometres* (previously 280 km) has been calculated according to NEDC, and a range of 270 to 285 kilometres** (previously 235 –245 km) according to WLTP. In everyday conditions, both models now achieve a range of 260 kilometres*** (previously 200 km).
* Power consumption, emissions figures and ranges are calculated based on the new WLTP test cycle and adapted to NEDC for comparison purposes, dependent on the tyre format selected.
** Ranges based on the WLTP test cycle, dependent on the tyre format selected.


Aquarius: How fortunate to have Jupiter in Sagittarius in your 11th house sector of pursuing your hopes, goals, and dreams! You have every opportunity to realize your ambitious goals. Friends could be very helpful in this eventful endeavor. Shoot all of your arrows and you will be fortunate in your accomplishments.
Saturn and Pluto both in Capricorn this year are holding you back behind-the-scenes as they are residing in your12th house sector. Getting organized will help with your daily agenda. Do address any health issues to avoid being off for extended periods of time. The work you put into better health will keep things stable. You may be going through a personal transformation as you explore the deeper side of life. You benefit from a more serious approach.
Your ruling planet, Uranus, will be moving into Taurus for seven years bringing new developments with home and family and your outlook on life. It anything, you will experiencing personal changes and be more inspired about life. If you are not feeling this way, restlessness will encourage you to start making changes in your life so you do. You can start with your living situation. Try sprucing it up or bring in some new age technology. If you are in a stagnant situation it's time to move. Trust your intuition.
With Mars in Aries, you will not waste any time in January addressing work issues and your agenda. Being so motivated, you are likely to succeed during the month with Mars in positive aspect to the Moon, Venus, and Jupiter. Progress may be hindered on the 1st, 18th, 20th, and the morning of the 21st as aspects cause difficulty with your daily agenda. You will make good strides on the afternoon of the 21st, the 22nd, and 25th. On the 13th when Jupiter squares Neptune you need to be extra cautious with all financial dealings. Don't let a friend encourage you to get involved with a quick-rich scheme.
The 1st of February, you will experience resistance and possible upset on the job as well as behind-the-scenes as Mars squares Pluto, but the 2nd to the 7th are good days to capitalize upon. Sudden changes in your environment may occur on the 12th as Mars influences Uranus. Be careful of accidents. Financial issues will need to be addressed on the 19th and 20th with the Virgo/Pisces Full Moon. Look out for a financial or partnership loss.
You may be plagued with indecision or a change of mind at the start of March and then Mercury goes retrograde on the 5th until the 28th. You will need to keep tabs on all of your finances as unfavorable mistakes could be made that zap your funds during this retrograde. It is best to avoid making important decisions and watch out for misunderstandings.
In April, you will find much more clarity with Saturn aspects and he New Moon on the evening of the 4th into the 5th, but challenges are noted on the 9th and 10th where romance falters, money disappears, and risky ventures are not the way to go. You will experience much better luck midmonth on the 14th, 15th, and 16th. The Full Moon on the 19th will be the cause of communication problems with coworkers and personal relationships. You may be disappointed with money and love on the 26th and 27th so don't over-extend yourself as Mars is squaring Neptune.
During May with Saturn going retrograde, you may feel rather sluggish, but still need to maintain a serious, organized itinerary to keep you on track. If your health is suffering it's time to take another look at how to improve your overall vitality. You may be in serious thought the first couple of days of the month as Saturn and Pluto adversely aspect Mercury. Your social life is temporarily blocked. Take advantage of this wonderful morning on the 9th as Venus aspects Jupiter. Issues on the home and career front surface on the 18th with an intense Full Moon. Watch out for financial problems and avoid risky ventures on the 29th as Mercury squares Neptune.
In June, you will accomplish set goals and even have some time for leisure life the first week. Still, it is bound to be a low-key month, where your self-esteem and earnings will feel stifled. A setback and possible disappointment are indicated on the 9th and 14th. Visions of grandeur will not materialize on the 16th and 17th as Jupiter is in square aspect to Neptune and the Full Moon are manifesting. Do not be persuaded to get involved with shady deals that drain your finances. Obstacles and delays are noted on the 18th and 19th, but the morning of the 21st, the 22nd, and the 23rd are more agreeable days under favorable Moon aspects and Venus influencing Jupiter.
During July with the New Moon, you will be focusing on your health the first couple of days, but a sudden turn of events could end or distance yourself from a relationship or family member on the 9th to 11th as Mars is in adverse aspect to Uranus. Don't let tensions and anger get the best of you, especially at home. The 6th, 12th, and 13th are optimistically productive days. Mercury goes retrograde starting the 7th to the 31st. Postpone important decisions and don't start anything new during this retrograde. Yet, you will enjoy socializing and going out on the 25th . You may find yourself reassessing where you stand with a personal relationship and your health and well-being.
In August on the evening of the 1st Venus in challenging square aspect to Uranus causes some unexpected stress in the home. The 8th and 9th, however, are great banner days where you want to be capitalizing upon your future hopes and goals, romance, and friendship to the fullest with Jupiter is favorable aspect to the Sun, Moon, and Venus. An on-going relationship soars and if single a new romantic prospect is looking good! Luck is on your side. Jupiter going direct on the 11th will steer you in a great direction with your desired hopes, goals, and dreams until the beginning of December. Fulfill your ambitions. You will encounter an aggressive Full Moon on the 15th that creates tension with your career and home life. Better influences are noted on the 19th to the 21st, where you have success with your work and especially on the 26th with Venus in positive aspect to Uranus where financial opportunities and investments thrive.
The beginning of September is insightful and productive with Mercury trine Uranus and Venus trine Saturn, but beware of the 4th and the evening of the 6th where Venus oppose Neptune and Mercury oppose Neptune will be the cause of disappointment. Don't over-do-it or over-extend yourself on the 11th, 12th, and 13th as Mars squaring Jupiter and opposing Neptune along with the Full Moon is persuading you to do so. Wait for a better period to pursue your plans. You will be able to accomplish much on the 18th, 19th , and 20th as the Moon trines Mars, Mars trines Pluto, and the Moon trines Mercury and Venus. Following pipe dreams will disappoint you financially on the 21st and 22nd.with Jupiter squaring Neptune. Strained relations are indicated on the 26th as Mercury is in square aspect to Pluto.

You will be concentrating seriously on the job with Mercury in Scorpio in positive aspect to Pluto and the Moon on the 19th and 20th. Challenges lurk in the morning of the 27th with Mars in adverse aspect to Saturn even though there is a New Moon. Mercury goes retrograde in Scorpio on the 31st until November 20th causing you to reevaluate your work position and seeing if it is actually benefiting you.
In November Venus moves into Sagittarius to link up with Jupiter the whole month bringing you more happiness and opportunity to pursue your sought after goals in life. Take advantage of this wonderful influence. On the 5th in the early morning Mars in adverse aspect to Pluto will be creating difficult communication where you are not seeing eye to eye with others. Days you will excel are the 6th, 7th, 8th, and 11th. The Full Moon on the 12th causes Career and home stress and the 14th brings a monetary loss if you are not careful. with Venus opposing Neptune.

PDP, Atiku planning to sabotage Buhari
Stop whining, face your self-inflicted woes, PDP replies
By Leon Usigbe - Abuja On May 15, 2019
THE Federal Government on Wednesday accused the main opposition, Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and its presidential flag bearer in the February 23 election, Atiku Abubakar, of planning to sabotage the President Muhammadu Buhari administration.
But the main opposition party has immediately fired back, asking the government to face its "self-inflicted woes."
Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Mohammed, made the accusation while addressing State House correspondents in Abuja.
Reading from a prepared text titled, "PDP's Brand of Opposition Politics Poses Great Threat to Nigeria's Democracy," the minister alleged that the PDP and its candidate were keen to make the country ungovernable.
He also accused them of attacking the judiciary in a desperate move, saying that if they did not desist from their actions, they may soon overreach themselves.
The minister who declined to take questions after reading his text stated:
ALSO READ: World leaders won't attend Buhari's inauguration ― FG
"The Federal Government has strongly decried the increasingly unpatriotic and desperate opposition politics being played by the PDP and its presidential candidate, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, warning that such dead-end opposition could be toxic for the nation's democracy if left unchecked.
"Never in the history of politics in Nigeria has an opposition party and its presidential candidate exhibited the kind of desperate tactics being deployed by the duo of the PDP and its flag-bearer, especially since President Muhammadu Buhari overwhelmingly defeated Atiku to win the 2019 presidential election.
"Either by themselves or via their proxies, the PDP and its presidential candidate are doing everything possible to sabotage the Buhari Administration, generally overheat the polity and make Nigeria seemingly ungovernable, especially through their public utterances and their poorly-thought-out press releases before and after the 2019 general elections.
"Unless they quickly retrace their steps, they may, sooner than later, overreach themselves.
"For those who may be quick to accuse the government of crying wolf, the pre-election statement credited to the former Vice President, that unless Nigerians vote out the APC Administration, killings by herdsmen will continue and ultimately spark a series of ethnoreligious crises that will be irreversible, is looking more like a Freudian slip than anything else.
"Also, in recent times, the PDP has taken its desperation to a new low by attacking the judiciary, an action many see as indicating a reversal of the party's hitherto self-assured stance that it has a solid case against the election of the President.
"And either by coincidence or orchestration, a faceless group emerges from nowhere calling for an overthrow of a democratically-elected government, a totally egregious act of treason.
"It beggars belief that a candidate who prides himself as a Democrat can so allow desperation to becloud his sense of propriety to such an extent that he will be associating with anti-democratic forces or making inflammatory statements.

"For acclaimed democrats, there are acceptable channels of seeking redress after an election defeat. Even President Buhari himself went to court three times to challenge election results.
"What is not acceptable is to either resort to self-help after an election defeat or to embark on a journey of subterfuge and sabotage while also mounting a legal challenge or pretending to do so.
"Worst still, painting the judiciary bad for whatever reason is anti-democratic and unconscionable.
"We want to urge the main opposition party to stop beating the drums of war, concentrate on the legal challenge by its candidate against the election of President Buhari if indeed they have any faith in the country's judiciary, and desist from unnecessarily overheating the polity."
In its response, the PDP in a statement issued by Kola Ologbondiyan, it spokesman, observed that the minister once again veered off issues of governance and dwelt on hauling insults, misplaced accusations and threats against Atiku.
The statement added: "The minister's tone, to say the least, betrays the frustration of a failed administration seeking excuses and scapegoats, instead of accepting its failures and self-inflicted woes.
"It is incontrovertible that the PDP, as a highly responsible political party, committed to the unity and stability of our dear nation, nurtured our democracy for 16 years and has continued to express its full respect for every arm of government including the judiciary
"It is equally indisputable that the All Progressives Congress (APC), within a period of four years, has wrecked our democratic structures, relegated and harassed judicial officers, disregarded our laws and judicial pronouncements, divided our people and practically brought our nation to its knees only for them to now turn to look for scapegoats where there are none.
"It is instructive to state that, in the course of serving our dear nation for sixteen years, the PDP was never known for intimidating and harassing judicial officers at any level.
"It is therefore unfortunate that the Minister of Information and Culture could suddenly recourse to making irresponsible allegations against the PDP and our Presidential candidate instead of accepting their failures.
"As a party we consider it awkward for the APC and its government, under whose only four years tenure, our judiciary has been thoroughly embarrassed, to make frivolous allegations against our party and Presidential candidate.
"It is manifestly clear that the PDP and our Presidential candidate are in court to seek justice and the issues of bias raised by our party are in public domain and in the general interest of the majority of Nigerians who gave their Presidential mandate to Atiku Abubakar.
"The fact remains that the APC and its failed government owe it as a responsibility to be accountable to Nigerians; the PDP has a constitutional role to play in this accountability process and our party will not shy away from it."
The PDP, therefore, charged the Federal Government to stop inventing excuses and making frivolous allegations of treason for its mass failures.
"The expectation of Nigerians is for the Buhari Presidency to live up to the demands of their offices instead of blaming our party for their self-inflicted woes," it added.

Are Your Customers Shouting Into the Void?

While the figures were what we reported to the CEO, it was the simpler informal sign that became our mantra. Let's face it — no one likes being ignored, yet more often than not it is the standard operating procedure of many support organizations. Even if it isn't intentional, that's often the way it appears to the customer.
It used to be fairly easy to monitor and listen to your customers; they either called, emailed, or even wrote an actual letter (remember those?) with any issues they had. There was really no excuse for being a "black hole." Today, it is much more complex. There is an overwhelming number of channels that customers can use to communicate with you, and while you may be able to monitor most of them, it is almost impossible to capture them all; like the example I came across of a disgruntled customer painting his complaints on the side of his van (https://thecontentpool.wordpress.com/2017/10/16/so-what-exactly-is-omnichannel/).
Capture it, and then do nothing.
Acknowledge there is a problem, but don't take any action.
Acknowledge the problem and provide a solution.
The type of response tends to be a reflection of when and where within the organization the customer data is received and handled. A few months ago, I wrote here on CMS Wire about how the customer input should be treated as a single unified data set.
So how do you go about using that data set to deliver on what the customer needs? The first rule of thumb goes back to not being a "black hole," and acknowledging that the customer has an issue. Do that and you'll be way ahead of most companies. However, while empathy is all well and good, it's actions that are appreciated more. So how do you provide the fix?
Give your customer-facing teams access to intelligent content. Content is an expression of everything a company does, and it needs to be valued as an asset across a company. To solve customer issues and provide positive actionable feedback, you need to be able to tap into that pool of content in efficient ways that allow the right pieces of knowledge to be pulled together to provide personalized responses. That content can come from knowledge bases, technical documentation, support articles, operating schedules, customer profiles, and machine learning chatbots; match that with current marketing campaigns and offers and you can pull together positive customer experiences that help solve problems, further engage, and continue to build the customer's brand engagement.
It once again comes down to taking a holistic strategic view, this time in regards to your content. Look at not only what it was created for, but where else it can be used, and where it can provide answers to customers' questions. The content needs to be structured, modeled, understood from a semantic customer viewpoint and have the right common taxonomies and metadata applied. It's not a quick or easy task, but it's one that increases efficiency, leverages your content assets, and allows you to respond to the voice of the customer in the best possible way.

'How To Save Your Daughter's Life': lock her up - Macleans.ca
'How To Save Your Daughter's Life': lock her up
A criminal profiler advises keeping a tight rein on girls
by Julia McKinnell
David Young-Wolff/Getty Images; Photo Illustration by Taylor Shute
Pat Brown knows every grisly crime imaginable. She's television's go-to criminal profiler and the CEO of the Sexual Homicide Exchange, a group that helps police zero in on suspects in unsolved sex crimes. Talk to her on the phone for 10 minutes and she's referencing the Florida man, shot dead by police, who chewed the face off a homeless man.
Raising her daughter, Brown did everything in her power to keep the girl safe from the perverts and psychopaths, and the drugs and depression that can ruin a girl's life. She home-schooled all three of her kids and didn't let her daughter date unchaperoned until she was 18.
As she proudly points out in her new book, How To Save Your Daughter's Life: Straight Talk for Parents from America's Top Criminal Profiler, her children turned out fine—her daughter is now a child-abuse detective—and "none of them ever cursed at me or told me they hated me."
"Better to be tough when they're little and then slowly let out the reins than be too easy when they're small and create a monster for a teen," she writes. Be strict and use discipline. If your daughter throws a tantrum or uses spiteful words, remove her from the environment, sternly reprimand her and implement a punishment. "It may be really hard work, but believe me, you will have so much less work when she is older: you won't be babysitting your grandchild while your daughter goes to high school, or hiding your jewellery from your crack-addicted young adult child."
Brown encourages parents to involve young girls in after-school hobbies like knitting and stamp collecting. But if that's too tame for a teen girl who easily bores, get her involved in an adventurous sport. "If I had a daughter who was getting crazy on me and sneaking out and doing all kinds of garbage, I'd see if I could find her an activity that she could really get into that has some rules and regulations, even if it's driving race cars." Like boxing to vent anger, "there are ways to channel your daughter in an environment that's handled by an adult. She gets her adrenalin rush but she's controlled by the rules of the game," Brown said in a telephone interview from her home in Washington.
Another way to keep a girl safe is to delay the milestones. "The younger one starts messing with anything the sooner one goes to the next level," says Brown. If your girl starts dating at age 12, she'll probably have sex sooner. If she drives at 16, she's more likely to crash into a tree while texting at the wheel. Make her wait to get her driver's licence and then drive shotgun with her everywhere she goes for the next year, advises Brown. "Every year and month you can delay improves your chances of having her maturity increase. Also, the slower she gains these opportunities, the less she expects to be given free rein and the more she accepts her parents having a say over her activities."
If you don't want her to do something, use logic to explain it. If she says, "Why can't I go to Meghan's house?" don't say, "Because I said so!" That tells her nothing and makes her think you're being stupid, mean and selfish. "Because Meghan's mom has a drinking problem and she has a creepy boyfriend hanging around," is better, Brown says. "You can further explain why these things are concerning to you. This helps her to respect you as a parent and also teaches her something about why good behaviour or certain choices are better."
If your teen gets trapped in a relationship with a boy who is too domineering, she may be able to get rid of him by talking about herself—her hair, her nails, her shoes—non-stop. "A psychopath is only interested in himself so the last thing he wants is to have a girl yakking about herself," she says. "Suddenly laughing non-stop for no good reason in the middle of lunch at McDonald's is going to make him squirm," because it's all about his ego. "If his trophy stops shining, if people are like, 'What are you doing with that girl?'— he's not gonna like that."
Whatever happens, never allow your daughter to be alone with a controlling boy she's broken up with. "That's when we find girls not getting home," says Brown.

Q: How to use TextureRegion.split in LibGdx I am new in game development and am trying to split an image in libGDX, but having a problem.
This is the image that I want to split:

This is my code:
textureZ60=new Texture(Gdx.files.internal("data/z63.png"));
TextureRegion[][] tmp = new TextureRegion(textureZ60).split(
    textureZ60.getWidth() / column,
    textureZ60.getHeight() / row);

allFramesZ0 = new TextureRegion[column*row];

int index=0;
for (int i=0; i<row; i++) {
    for (int j=column-1; j>=0; j--) {
        allFramesZ0[index++]=tmp[i][j];
    }
}
animationZ0 = new Animation(0.25f, allFramesZ0);

My problem is that if I make array descending it returns 6 TextureRegion:

*

*0-Orange

*1-Black

*2-Red

*3-Red

*4-Red

*5-Red

and if I make array ascending it returns 6 TextureRegion

*

*0-Red

*1-Green

*2-Orange

*3-Orange

*4-Orange

*5-Orange

I tried everything, but it's not returning all 6 different images. Why does it repeat Red or Orange, and how can I get all 6 different images?
Please help me on this. Thanks.

A: I've checked & debugged it and it is creating 6 different TextureRegion with correct data. Seems your problem is somehow related to the animation - maybe the frame rate you are using is somhow wrong or something.
How are you playing your animation? is it repeating itself or only once?
From what you are describing it seems that it jumping 3 frames forward and at the end stopping at the last frame. Notice that both orange to black and red to green has 3 frames betwwen them.
If you are plaing it only once maybe you should try playing it repeatedly to first verify that all frames loaded ineed (but it might play in the wrong order: red->green->purpole->red->...). also if you will add one more frame it won't repeat itself and than you'll probably be able to see all colors.

All Aboard Harvest | Sage: What a way to end the day.
Sage: What a way to end the day.
04 Jun Sage: What a way to end the day.
I learned a long time ago it isn't how you act in certain situations, it's how you react to them. Some things are just out of your control and can test your cool. On harvest you learn you have to react to many things from repairing the combines to dealing with long lines at the elevator. I have learned that cooler heads prevail and the job will get done in a timely manner, so there is no reason to get upset about it. But there are still those days that test your patience.
Mine happened yesterday. We finished cutting one part of the field and had to road the combines 30 miles to the next one. The combines only go just over 20 miles-per-hour, so you can imagine how long it took. I have dealt with that my whole life so that didn't bother me at all. We got to the field and started cutting and everything was going very smoothly. The combines were able to run efficiently and the haul was only five miles away, so it was great, until about 10:30 p.m.
I was just getting ready to take my last load and call it a night. I started off to town just like any routine trip, but was pulled over mid-way through town. I wasn't speeding, if fact I thought he was going to ask why I was going slow, so I wasn't sure why I was being pulled over. He came up to the window and said follow me. So we went around the courthouse and there he informed me that my license plate light was out. So I tried to fix it but just figured the bulb had gone bad. After that I figured he was just going to warn me and send me to the elevator to make it before they closed at 11:00 p.m., but I could not have been further from the truth.
He went on to weigh my truck, which took forever because I couldn't get the truck over the tiny portable scales right. I was way under the legal limit and he was pretty surprised by that. I told him we had a scale on our grain cart that is pretty close to being on track. Then he checked all my lights, my windshield wipers and my air horn. I truly felt like I was being tested to get my CDL again. But after all was said and done, he just wrote me warnings for no license plate light, broken reverse light on the tractor and running with a train horn instead of an air horn (which is a Texas state law, not a federal law he informed me). He was extremely nice and patient, and I kept a cool head, even if I did miss getting to the elevator by 10 minutes.
I knew today would be better though, and it was. We finished the field we were on and then ran into wheat that was too wet to cut, and is going to be until Monday. So dad went out and luckily found a job that was close. We only had to road the combines 15 miles. Hopefully we can get a lot done tonight and finish it up tomorrow before we have to make the jaunt back to where our wet wheat is.
I could have gotten upset at the fact I was pulled over and missing the elevator, but it would have been in vain. He was just doing his job, as was I, even if it was almost midnight.
Way to go Sage!! I know you had many thoughts going through your head as the DOT guy was checking out your truck. If you get caught again – just sit back, relax and remember it is only a little over 5 months to Rebel Basketball.
State RevenuersThey are not out to make sure the trucks are safe,all they want is money and everything they do is centered around money.This is the most worthless bunch of people to ever work for the state of Texas.Sorry for the rant,I gotta put up with these revenuers all the time and have no love lost for them.
You got lucky,maybe he already had his quota for the day.

The Most Prosperous Small Cities in Russia
Ufa is the largest city of the republic of Bashkortostan, in the North of Russia. It is located on the river banks of the Belaya (White) River and is one of Russia's most important cities in termsWhen the Russian empire collapsed, Ufa was one of many towns that became a trade crossroads between China and Europe, and today it still attracts a lot of tourists who come to witness the unique culture and life under the yarraine (romanovia). It was a major trade crossroad between Asia and Europe at that time, and it developed a strong economy. Today, the city prospers economically with its vast amount of oil resources, gas and coal deposits, making it one of the richest cities of Russia. During the times of the Mongolian rule, their biggest city was also located here, Bashgirdt
The first UFA house museum is located at the junction of the riverbank and the oblast (republic) of Ufa, which is located in the district of Rustavi oblast. The exact location of Ufa is not clearly known. But from the present time, the main residential area of Ufa consists of mostly apartments and flat buildings, and the town serves as a crossing point for trucks, motor vehicles, and people. Besides, there are modern housing complexes in Ufa and a large number of factories and warehouses, both public and private. Besides, the city also has a large amount of recreational centers, including a huge sports complex – the Sportpalast.
The present-day town of Ufa has been developing rapidly and became a big metropolis of Russia with a bustling commercial and business center. Besides, the region has an important port that has a port complex, a large industrial park and a whole host of other industries. As far as the culture and history of Ufa are concerned, the city's rich cultural heritage is widely spread throughout the oblast as a major cultural center of Bashkortostan region. For example, the best known cultural tradition of Bashkortostan is its artistic and literary heritage, which can be traced through the names of famous poets and writers like Vasili Oschepkov, Pavlovsky, Khrenov, Pushkin and others.
The best and the most profitable commodity imported or exported from Ufa or Bashkortostan are currency. It's the only city in Russia where you can purchase rubles (also called Russian rubles) at a rate of 100 rubles per person. It's true that you will find a lot of tourists who are buying and selling rubles as they see fit. You will find a large number of posh shops all over the city selling all kinds of precious and semiprecious stones and metals. But if you want to get the real value of your rubles, it's more sensible to exchange them on the black market rather than to buy them in the capital of Russia.
The people of Ufa are very hard-working. They don't have time to complain about anything or to take any rest. Though the capital is a large city and many people live there, they prefer to live in the outskirt of the town, where there is less crowd and many entertainment activities are going on. There's nothing better than working in such a relaxed atmosphere.

There certainly is a techie joke in there, but let's concentrate on the film side of it, the fact that the plot for Duncan Jones' next film has been revealed online.
Well when I say revealed, sure the plot has been announced, but it's not really anything we didn't already know about the film, just telling us in a little more detail.
We knew that it would feature a soldier in a unique device, returning to a moment in time again and again to try and figure out the events behind the bombing of a train, but there's an extra dimension added by the plot, the fact that the soldier doesn't really understand what's happening to him, and it would seem that every time he returns to the real world he has to be reminded about who he is, where he's going and why.
Captain Colter Stevens (Jake Gyllenhaal) wakes with a jolt to find himself on a commuter train heading into Chicago. Although the other passengers all seem to know him, he has absolutely no idea where-or even who-he is. The last thing Colter remembers is flying a helicopter mission in Iraq, but here he is in someone else's life going through someone else's morning commute. Before he can do anything an express train zooms by on the opposite track and a bomb explodes, seemingly killing Colter and all the other passengers.
Colter comes to in an isolation chamber, strapped to a seat, and wearing his military flight suit. He still has no idea what's happening, except that he's being spoken to by mission controller Carol Goodwin (Vera Farmiga), who calmly recites a series of memory questions to which Colter is shocked to realize he knows the answers.
He learns he's part of an operation called "Beleaguered Castle," but before he can progress any further, Goodwin starts up the machinery and suddenly…Colter is back on the train, at exactly the same time he first appeared there, once again speeding through Chicago with the same group of commuters.
Colter figures he's in some kind of simulation exercise, with his task being to find the bomber onboard the train before it goes off again. Living the explosion over and over, Colter must uncover the identity of the bomber, while also figuring out what the alternative universe of "Beleaguered Castle" is. Adding to the puzzle, Colter uses the second chance opportunities to make peace with his father, and to find romance with a fellow passenger on the train.
The great thing about this is the idea that the guy really doesn't understand what's going on, and with Duncan Jones making the film after the superb success of Moon (Filmstalker review), and with a cast including Jake Gyllenhaal, Vera Farmiga, Michelle Monaghan and Jeffrey Wright, you can't be thinking anything but excited thoughts about this.
Seems a bit like quantum leap?
Now I hadn't actually through of that before, but yes, it actually does.

De Kaapse jan-van-gent (Morus capensis) is een vogel uit de familie van genten (Sulidae).

Kenmerken
De Kaapse jan-van-gent lijkt sterk op de noordelijke jan-van-gent die in Canada en Europa broedt. Hij heeft dezelfde afmetingen en bijna dezelfde zwart wit verdeling in het verenkleed. De Kaapse jan-van-gent heeft meer zwart op de vleugel, een zwarte rand langs de hele vleugel en hij heeft een zwarte staart.

Verspreiding en leefgebied
Het is een zeevogel met een verspreidingsgebied rond Zuid-Afrika en Namibië. Er zijn kolonies op drie eilanden voor de kust van Zuid-Afrika en op drie eilanden voor de kust van Namibië. Een daarvan Vogeleiland (Lambertsbaai) is uitstekend toegankelijk voor vogelliefhebbers. Buiten de broedtijd verblijven de genten meestal binnen 120 km van zeekusten. Ze volgen vissersschepen en foerageren vaak op de overboord gegooide bijvangst.

Status
De Kaapse jan-van-gent is een bedreigde diersoort omdat in 2017 bleek dat de populatie in de periode  van drie generaties 50 tot 79% in aantal was afgenomen, vooral door de ineenstorting van de ansjovispopulatie (Engraulis capensis) voor de kust van Namibië. Andere bedreigingen waren een olieramp, de exploitatie van guano op de eilanden en de predatie van jonge genten door pelikanen (ook door gebrek aan vis). Daarom staat deze zeevogel als bedreigd op de Rode Lijst van de IUCN.
