AUSTIN, TEXAS – It is with deep regret that the Serie Project announces the passing of its founder, the Chicano painter and printmaker, cultural activist and arts educator Sam Z. Coronado.
Born in Ennis, Texas on July 12, 1946 to parents Sam Zaragosa and Margarita Coronado, Sam Z. Coronado voluntarily enlisted and served in the Army between 1964 and 1967. He graduated from the University of Texas at Austin, where he co-founded the Chicano Art Students Association, with a Bachelor of Fine Arts in 1975.
Following a successful career in commercial illustration, Coronado turned to cultural activism. He founded Houston's Arcoiris, a state-wide network of Latina/o artists, in 1980. Together with visual artists Sylvia Orozco and Pio Pulido, Coronado co-founded Austin's Mexic-Arte Museum in 1984. During this time, he also owned a private gallery named Cibola Studio on 5th Street in Austin.

His career in teaching spans decades. Early examples include his work with the Association for the Advancement of Mexican Americans in Houston. In 1986, he began teaching at Austin Community College through their Continuing Education Department. The Visual Communications Department at ACC became his department in 1991. He would later be promoted to Associate Professor (2001) and Full Professor (2004) in the Graphic Arts Department at this institution.

After two printmaking residencies at Self-Help Graphics in East Los Angeles, Coronado founded Austin's collaborative workshop Coronado Studio (1991), nationally renown for its fine art serigraphy. In 1993, Coronado founded the Serie Project, where he committed himself to promote the art of serigraphy, as well its continued influence throughout the Latino Arts.

Coronado's personal oeuvre in painting and printmaking has been the subject of many exhibitions and publications across the United States, Mexico, Europe and Africa. In 2012, the Austin Visual Arts Association presented him with the Lifetime Achievement Award.
He is survived by his wife Jill Ramirez; daughter Sonia Christina Sorenson; son-in-law Gary Sorenson; sister Yolanda Johnnie; brother-in-law Robert Johnnie; brother Ricky Coronado; sister-in-law Connie Coronado; half-brothers Johnny Garcia and Santos Garcia; nieces Samantha Addington, Ana Sorola and Cassie Coronado; nephews Noel Marquez and Nehemiah Coronado; and grandchildren Victoria and Noah Sorenson, who he adored. Our hearts and deepest sympathy go out to them for their loss.

In addition to his professional accomplishments, Coronado was a cherished friend and mentor to many. He inspired all who knew him with warm-hearted camaraderie and encouraged their creativity. The friendships and relationships that he made will forever be remembered, and his legacy in the Latino Arts is sure to stand the test of time. As Coronado himself would say, "That's cold-blooded."
Memorial services are being planned and will be announced shortly.
In lieu of flowers, his family would like to invite you to make a donation to the Serie Project in his honor in order to continue his legacy.

Contractor Kier is looking at working in Iraq as it seeks to increase the amount of work it does overseas.
The firm has worked abroad for more than 70 years, including in Iraq, but has tended to concentrate on the Caribbean, Hong Kong and the Middle East in recent years.
Any Iraq work would be carried out in an office in the country, Sheffield added. Kier was one of a number of UK firms on a trade mission that visited the Kurdistan region of Iraq this year.


Ljubljana, 25 January - The government confirmed on Thursday an agreement on Russia's clearing debt to Slovenia, under which Russia is to settle the US$ 129m debt in goods and services over three years. The deal is now in the hands of the finance and economy ministries.
The news item consists of 916 characters (without spaces) or 182 words words.


When the time comes to refurbish and redecorate, it's very tempting to play it safe, with a neutral colour scheme, plain white tiles and a fairly standard bathroom suite. Whilst there's certainly nothing wrong with such an approach, it could result in a space that simply doesn't reflect your personality.
If you really want to ramp up the style and produce a bathroom design to be passionate about, it pays to be bold, using darker, deeper colours, adventurous shapes and patterns and new technology, to produce a more immersive and dramatic setting.
Throughout this style guide, I'll be showing you 3 different ways in which you can be bold with your bathroom. Why not take a look at this short yet inspirational video first?
When choosing your bathroom style, it may seem like a simple choice between contemporary and traditional styles. For the uninitiated, contemporary means something that is fashionable now, following the latest trends, whilst traditional style usually includes ornate designs which have a timeless appeal to them, echoing classic interiors from bygone eras, like the Victorian and Edwardian periods.
However, one increasingly popular approach is to mix things up, without sticking to one distinct style, creating what would be termed an "eclectic" look.
To help you get the look, I've produced a mood board which will give you a flavour of my own Eclectic Vision bathroom.
As you can already tell, this bathroom uses a monochrome palette as a base, with a combination of both traditional and contemporary products. We've introduced rose gold to give the metallic finishes an on-trend edge. Don't be afraid to go a little glitzy with your choice of tiles and wall panels.
Your choice of bath is the perfect way to combine 2 different styles. The Botero croc skin effect freestanding bath features a classic bateau shape, whilst the black, textured surround provides a deliciously dark element. To complement and contrast, the contemporary style Spencer freestanding bath tap comes in a sumptuous rose gold finish.
Take a more in-depth look at this bathroom in our Eclectic Vision style guide.
Another great way to be bold with your bathroom is to add a more futuristic aspect to your design. With the latest in high-tech gadgets, you can turn your space into a smart bathroom, in more ways than one.
By using rich colours and being more daring with your lighting, your bathroom takes on a more contemporary form with hints of neon producing a more urban look and feel.
We've named this look "Power-Up" as your added technology really will enhance how you use your space.
To give you a flavour of this look, I've produced a mood board.
Bold colours, LED lighting and darker walls and flooring combine to produce a space-age design that will certainly be the envy of anyone who sees it.
The wet room shower enclosure contains some genuinely futuristic elements. A splash-proof bathroom TV means you never need miss out on your favourite shows, whilst the SmarTap smart showering system with LED shower head indicates when your water temperature is just right.
Monochrome bathrooms have been popular for a while now, yet many people feel too scared to give them a go, preferring to stick to a blend of neutrals or light colour schemes. However, with darker, more theatrical settings set to be a big trend this year, I've created a contemporary bathroom that uses monochrome to the max!
To help you visualise this look, I've produced the mood board below.
Hexagonal tiles are very on-trend and can be used to add a designer feature to your walls. I've also picked out black surfaces where you might not expect them, on taps and the shower tray.
The Ellis vanity unit is the perfect way to contrast black and white elements. The gloss white reflects light, whilst the black handle insert adds an accent colour without dominating proceedings.

TIP: Eat frozen foods slowly to avoid a brain freeze!
While we recommend eating slowly regardless, another good reason is to avoid a brain freeze when eating frozen foods like ice cream and frozen shakes.
Also dubbed 'ice cream headaches', they occur when something cold enough touches the roof of your mouth for a period of time. One second too long and that cold triggers blood vessels in the front of your head to swell. This rapid, swelling reaction is that familiar, awful pain you know as 'brain freeze'.
Simply eat and drink your frozen foods slower.

Growing Permian, Canadian Crude Production Hits Pipeline Limit
North America's great oil surge of 2018, amid the highest oil prices in more than three years, is threatened by pipeline gridlock from West Texas to Alberta and oil investors have yet to fully appreciate the implications, according to Energy Aspects Ltd.
North America will contribute about 1.2 million barrels a day of production growth to the world market this year, just enough to fulfill world demand, Dominic Haywood, an analyst at Energy Aspects said in an interview with Bloomberg at the Argus Canada crude summit.
But that forecast is 100,000 barrels a day lower than what was previously estimated and there are high chances that it could be reduced further, which means even higher world crude prices later in the year, he said.
"The recent run in flat prices was due to geopolitics rather than an appreciation that supply might be a little bit tighter than people previously expected," he said.
The discount to futures of West Texas Intermediate crude at Midland, Texas, widened to as much as $8 a barrel late last month, the biggest in more than three years, as pipelines out of the Permian Basin are operating at their maximum limit.
To the north, heavy crude from the Canadian oil sands has sold at a discount to futures by as much as $30 a barrel this year as a surge of new production filled pipelines to capacity.

Taking advantage of unpredictable gas prices and a rising consumer interest in all things green, auto-maker Ford is finally making its way into sales of dedicated hybrid vehicles with its freshly announced 2013 C-Max line.
The hybrid auto niche has long been dominated by Toyota and its popular Prius, with major players lke Hyundai, Kia and General Motors working their way into top spots as well, making Ford a relative latecomer at risk of being overshadowed by the competition; while Ford has released hybrid versions of its existing models in years past, the C-Max compact crossover stands as its first dedicated hybrid line.
With Ford accounting for only four percent of all electrified vehicles sold in in the United States this year through July, the company recognizes that it faces an uphill battle against its competitors. With the team behind the C-Max simply looking to make its way into the electric car conversation, it seems that officials at Ford understand that this new model isn't likely to immediately win over consumers; plans to produce their new hybrid line at the existing facility in Michigan where the Ford Focus and Focus Electric models are built will allow the company to avoid closing a plant if sales prove too low to continue production.
The 2013 Ford C-Max will be available as both a hybrid and a plug-in hybrid with a low starting price of $25,995 and an engine that will allow it to get a very attractive 47 m.p.g., both features that Ford hopes will make it a viable alternative to those invested in the high-flying Toyota Prius when it is made available to consumers later this year.


This information is just priceless.
NEW YORK – The law firm suing Trump University was founded by a wealthy San Diego lawyer with close ties to the Clintons who served a two-year sentence in federal prison for his role in a kickback scheme to mobilize plaintiffs for class-action lawsuits.
William Lerach, best known for winning more than $7 billion in legal settlements of a class action suit he brought against Enron, was found guilty in 2007 of a kickback scheme in which he his firm used intermediaries to pay clients with large stock portfolios a percentage of the law firm's $11.3 million profits for agreeing to be plaintiffs in 225 class action and shareholder lawsuits, spanning the period 1979 to 2005.
Lerach's former law firm, the once prestigious New York-based Milberg, Weiss, Bershad & Schulman, made an estimated $250 million in the criminal class-action scheme.
WND reported documents released Wednesday in the lawsuit accusing Trump University of fraud confirmed the law firm behind the suit paid Bill and Hillary Clinton a total of $675,000 for speeches.
In addition to prison, Lerach was ordered to pay a $250,000 fine and to complete 1,000 hours of community service for agreeing to plead guilty as charged.
On Dec. 21, 2007, the California Bar declared Lerach "not eligible to practice law," and he later was disbarred and prohibited from practicing law in California by order of the California Supreme Court.
Sounds like a Gloria Allred type, always looking for a "victim" to play the legal system with. Bringing suits is a profitable business on its own. Trump knows this and has said publicly that he doesn't settle out of court, it just encourages others to do it.
This is now a very partisan lawsuit. Proving that the information supplied couldn't make one a success will be a difficult task if you ask me. It seems all Trump has to do is to produce graduates who have in fact made lots of money with the training provided at Trump U. Graduates from every school must apply themselves and actually use the information provided. If Trump refuses to settle out of court there's not going to be a pot of gold at the end of this rainbow.


The BMBF-funded ARVIDA joint project has the objective of researching a web-based system environment for applications of virtual technologies (VT). For this purpose, ARVIDA developed a service-oriented, real-time-capable reference architecture, thereby creating an innovative basis for modular VT systems that can be flexibly composed. In this way, ARVIDA overcomes the current disadvantages of a monolithic system environment that is predominantly based on manufacturer-specific platforms.
Apart from the presentation of the ARVIDA architecture, two sample applications of the reference architecture were presented at CeBIT: motion capturing for a truck cab and the projection of 3D contents onto a vehicle surface.
Prof. Dr. W. Schreiber, Head of the ARVIDA joint project, presented selected exhibits of the ARVIDA project partners at the BMBF booth.

The wiring diagram on the opposite hand is particularly beneficial to an outside electrician. Sometimes wiring diagram may also refer to the architectural wiring program. The simplest approach to read a home wiring diagram is to begin at the source, or the major power supply. Basically, the home wiring diagram is simply utilized to reveal the DIYer where the wires are.
In a parallel circuit, each unit is directly linked to the power supply, so each system gets the exact voltage. There are 3 basic sorts of standard light switches. The circuit needs to be checked with a volt tester whatsoever points. Neon Speaker Wiring Diagram. Each circuit displays a distinctive voltage condition. You are able to easily step up the voltage to the necessary level utilizing an inexpensive buck-boost transformer and steer clear of such issues. The voltage is the sum of electrical power produced by the battery. Be sure that the new fuse isn't blown, and carries the very same amperage.

Q: Using whenever gem to schedule a cron job I'm testing whenever to figure out how to use it and am running into trouble even after reading the Github documentation.
I simply want to update the attributes of my model like this (config/schedule.rb)
set :output "/log/today.log"
every 10.seconds do
  runner "Example.update_all(sample: Time.now)"
end

I am neither seeing a log file nor seeing the model attributes updated.
Is there anything I am not doing correctly?

A: First you need to add your cron job in the cron tab.
If you do not want to add because you are just testing it, you can try the code given below(which i did for my rails application).
cd /home/your_home/your_project && script/your_script -e <environment> "method_call"
In your case:

India's Education Sector – Back to School
Byrahul
India's US$40b education market is experiencing a surge in investment. Capital, both local and international, and innovative legal structures are changing the face of this once-staid sector
The liberalization of India's industrial policy in 1991 was the catalyst for a wave of investment in IT and infrastructure projects. Rapid economic growth followed, sparking a surge in demand for skilled and educated workers. This, combined with the failure of the public system to provide high quality education and the growing willingness of the burgeoning middle class to spend money on schooling, has transformed India's education sector into an attractive and fast-emerging opportunity for foreign investment.
Despite being fraught with regulatory restrictions, private investors are flocking to play a part in the "education revolution". A recent report by CLSA (Asia-Pacific Markets) estimated that the private education market is worth around US$40 billion. The K-12 segment alone, which includes students from kindergarten to the age of 17, is thought to be worth more than US$20 billion. The market for private colleges (engineering, medical, business, etc.) is valued at US$7 billion while tutoring accounts for a further US$5 billion.
Other areas such as test preparation, pre-schooling and vocational training are worth US$1-2 billion each. Textbooks and stationery, educational CD-ROMs, multimedia content, child skill enhancement, e-learning, teacher training and finishing schools for the IT and the BPO sectors are some of the other significant sectors for foreign investment in education.
Opportunity beckons
The Indian government allocated about US$8.6 billion to education for the current financial year. But considering the significant divide between the minority of students who graduate with a good education and the vast majority who struggle to receive basic elementary schooling, or are deprived of it altogether, private participation is seen as the only way of narrowing the gap. Indeed, it is estimated that the scope for private participation is almost five times the amount spent on education by the government.

CLSA estimates that the total size of India's private education market could reach US$70 billion by 2012, with an 11% increase in the volume and penetration of education and training being offered.
The K-12 segment is the most attractive for private investors. Delhi Public School operates approximately 107 schools, DAV has around 667, Amity University runs several more and Educomp Solutions plans to open 150 K-12 institutions over the next four years. Coaching and tutoring K-12 students outside school is also big business with around 40% of urban children in grades 9-12 using external tuition facilities.
Opening the doors
Private initiatives in the education sector started in the mid-90s with public-private partnerships set up to provide information and communications technology (ICT) in schools. Under this scheme, various state governments outsourced the supply, installation and maintenance of IT hardware and software, as well as teacher training and IT education, in government or government-aided schools. The central government has been funding this initiative, which follows the build-own-operate-transfer (BOOT) model, under the Sarva Shiksha Abhiyaan and ICT Schools programmes. Private companies such as Educomp Solutions, Everonn Systems, and NIIT were among the first to enter the ICT market, which is expected to be worth around US$1 billion by 2012.
Recently, the central government invited private participation in over 1,000 of its industrial training institutes and offered academic and financial autonomy to private players. Companies such as Tata, Larsen & Toubro, Educomp and Wipro have shown keen interest in participating in this initiative.
Regulatory roadblocks
Education in India is regulated at both central and state government levels. As a result, regulations often differ from state to state. K-12 education is governed by the respective State School Education Act and the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) Rules and Regulations concerning affiliation and/or the rules of any other affiliating body. Under current regulations, only not-for-profit trusts and societies registered under Societies Registration Act, 1860, and companies registered under section 25 of the Companies Act, 1956, qualify to be affiliated with the CBSE and to operate private schools.
While the K-12 segment accounts for the lion's share of India's educational market, weaving through the complex regulatory roadmap to qualify for affiliation poses serious difficulties for investors. The CBSE requires privately-funded schools to be non-proprietary entities without any vested control held by an individual or members of a family. In addition, a school seeking affiliation is expected to have a managing committee controlled by a trust, which should approve budgets, tuition fees and annual charges. Any income accrued cannot be transferred to the trust or school management committee and voluntary donations for gaining school admission are not permitted.
Schools and higher education institutions set up by the trust are entitled to exemptions from income tax, subject to compliance with section 11 of the Income Tax Act, 1961. In order to qualify for tax exemptions, the trust needs to ensure that its predominant activity is to serve the charitable purpose of promoting education as opposed to the pursuit of profit.
Alternative paths
Alternative routes do exist for investors seeking to avoid the web of regulatory barriers that constrain their involvement. Sectors such as pre-schools, private coaching and tutoring, teacher training, the development and provision of multimedia content, educational software development, skill enhancement, IT training and e-learning are prime sectors in which investors can allocate their funds. These areas are attractive because while they relate closely to the profitable K-12 segment, they are largely unregulated. As such, they make attractive propositions for private investors interested in taking advantage of the burgeoning demand for quality education. Companies such as Educomp Solutions, Career Launcher, NIIT, Aptech, and Magic Software, are market leaders in these fields. Educomp recently acquired a large number of educational institutes and service providers across India. It has also formed joint ventures with leading higher education groups, including Raffles Education Singapore, for the establishment of higher education institutions and universities in India and China. Furthermore, it has entered into a multi-million dollar collaboration with Ansal Properties and Infrastructure to set up educational institutions and schools across the country and closed an US$8.5 million deal to acquire Eurokids International, a private provider of pre-school educational services in India. Gaja Capital India, an education-centric fund, has completed the funding of three education services companies in India. NIIT and Aptech, meanwhile, are engaged in the IT training business.

There are several elements that are needed to take a good portrait, and they all need to work together well. Things like proper communication with your subject and an interesting location are very important, but so are choice of focal length and aperture.
But to me, the most important element in any photograph is light. You can't do anything without it and the quality of light directly affects the quality of your images. Since photography knowledge has become so accessible and virtually everyone is free to post tips and advice online, certain myths have been formed, particularly about lighting.
Probably the most common myth is that the photographer needs to have the sun behind him. Well, it's not entirely false. If you want to play it safe, take a few portraits at sunset with the sun behind you. You'll most likely end up with a few decent shots, but they'll probably be nothing to brag about. But if you do the opposite, things will start to change. Shooting into the sun is considered a mistake, especially by beginners who read a lot and don't practice so much.
Backlighting is a technique that has been around for a very long time, but it was harder to use in film photography because of the lower contrast provided by old film and older lenses. Digital photography has taken care of that. Backlighting can be truly spectacular and flattering for your subject. The key is a proper exposure of your model.
Don't focus on the sun behind the subject, just make sure their face and clothes are correctly exposed. The beautiful, golden hair light will come as a bonus.
Here's a video of Karl Taylor demonstrating how to photograph in backlight.
