Q: How is current flowing through this P-channel MOSFET? I am probably being stupid and should probably go to bed but how is current flowing in this circuit below?

From my understanding, a P-channel MOSFET allows current to flow when its gate terminal is at a lower potential than its source terminal. Of course a certain threshold must be met to fully "turn on" the channel but regardless. What I don't understand with this circuit is how the capacitor is able to charge. As can be seen from the graphs, the VGS starts at 0V. VGS = 0V means that the gate and source are at the same potential, thus from the earlier criterion, current should not flow. However, it does flow and charges the capacitor to the source voltage. What is going on here?

A: The MOSFET has a body diode (not shown on your symbol) which will conduct if source is a lower voltage than drain, that is, the 'reverse' direction.
The body diode anode faces toward the drain, and the cathode faces toward the source. As connected, that diode is forward biased.
So, the cap is charging through the diode, even though your starting condition is Vgs = 0.
More about that pesky body diode here: How should I understand the intrinsic body diode inside a MOSFET?

A: I found this kind if configuration in reverse polarity protection circuit as picture below.
First the current flow from drain terminal through body diode or intrinsic diode. After that source terminal got voltage as drain minus by diode's forward voltage drop. Then the body that connect to source has some positive charge that build the channel along with gate plane. The channel is just N-type with charge density created by electric field from gate that allow current pass through in bidirectional. At this point, the voltage dropped across source and drain is lower than diode's forward drop.

A: You are correcting using a P Mosfet as a high side switch.
Just invert source with drain by flipping horizontally the MOSFET and then your circuit is perfect.

Revision as of 01:39, 18 June 2021 by ::1 (talk) (Content Updated.)
Typhoid an acute infectious fever caused by a gram-negative, motile bacillus Salmonella typhi. Typhoid is highly prevalent in the tropical countries but may occur anywhere. In Bangladesh it occurs as an endemic disease. Its prevalence is higher after the rainy season but occurs throughout the year. In rural areas and in areas with poor sanitation, overcrowding, unhealthy environment, and lack of safe water supply, its prevalence is higher. Poor public health measures is one of the main contributory factors for its occurrence and spread.
The disease occurs due to ingestion of contaminated food or drink. Stale food and impure water contaminated with typhoid bacilli usually cause the disease. The contamination occurs from typhoid patient's stool or other contaminated materials.
The disease has insidious onset with malaise, headache, lack of appetite, and nausea. This is followed by fever. The temperature starts slowly, and gradually reaches its peak (often to 105BAF) in second week and may continue for three weeks, and the patient recovers during the 4th week with sudden remission of fever. Occasionally the patient may develop complications and may die. The main complications are bleeding from stomach, distension of abdomen, or even intestinal perforations with peritonitis (which is usually fatal). Sometimes the patient may develop diarrhoea, and vomiting. However, with modern treatment facilities, typhoid is completely curable and preventable with improved public health measures. Anti-typhoid vaccination has also a substantial role in the prevention of typhoid.
Typhoid is prevalent more in the rural areas of Bangladesh than the urban areas. Poor public health services could be the reason for this. In cities however, the disease is found more among the slum and Basti dwellers. Both sexes are equally affected. The disease occurs more in young adults. There are cases of drug resistant typhoid occurring in Bangladesh due to improper and irregular treatment, which needs special care and attention. [Md Serajul Islam]

On 02/02/2019, during the game between the Belfast Giants and the Coventry Blaze an incident occurred, deemed as Tripping. The incident was reviewed by the EIHL Department of Player Safety.
On review of the video footage, it has been determined by the EIHL DOPS that supplementary discipline is required. The incident is deemed as Category 1 – 'Careless' – insufficient attention or thought to avoid harm or error. It is liable to happen as a consequence of, by intending to affect an opponent through a reactionary or accidental motion; or the incident is deemed careless caused by negligence.
With the Coventry Blaze on a 5-on-3 powerplay, #28 Justin Hache took a shot from the high slot, which was blocked, creating a turn over. Belfast Giants #39 Patrick Dwyer was the player who gained puck possession and immediately turned up ice to get the puck out of their own zone. Considering the Belfast Giants were on the penalty kill, the main objective is to get the puck out of the zone (usually the length of ice). Instead, Belfast Giants #39 Patrick Dwyer does more of a chip play, chipping the puck towards the boards and turning his skating lane towards the middle of the ice. This creates a broken play- evident by Dwyer's other two line-mates initially heading for a line change. Consideration for Dwyer's puck decision and body movement was taken into consideration and deemed part of, but not the primary cause of, knee contact.
As the video shows, Hache has probable cause to make a body check. With the impending body check about to occur, Hache reverses from backwards out of the attacking zone to a forward attack, creating a head on approach (no angling approach). A head on (180 degree) approach into contact means that Hache has the primary responsibility to make body to body contact. Instead, and the reason for supplementary discipline, is the contact is not body to body – but knee to knee. Although accidental (as it is an intended legal body check gone wrong), the responsibility is on Hache to avoid knee to knee contact. The contact is deemed kneeing, recklessly endangering and avoidable. There was an apparent injury on the play.
Effective immediately, Coventry Blaze #28 Justin Hache is suspended for 2 games.

DEUTSCH K. IGNÁC
Glassware and Porcelain Store
An empire of glass.
The Deutsch Family
The family of the merchant Deutsch K. Ignác (Karl Ignaz Deutsch) came from the Czech Republic (Moravia), it was the third generation settled in the city. The records from 1851-1853 recorded the name Deutsch Simon, a tailor in the New City – we can only suppose the records were about his grandfather.
From 1909, Deutsch, the merchant, father of four, started to invest in real estate. He built a family villa on Republicii street no. 54 and a presentation and sales store for glass and porcelain objects on Vasile Alecsandri street no. 4.
The villa was built by architect Sztarill Ferenc, one of the most famous architects of the city at that time.
The opinions of the specialists are divided when it comes to the name of the constructor: some argue that it is not known, or that it might have been built by Sztarill Ferenc in 1906, while others argue that it was Rimanóczy Kálmán Jr.'s, who was, supposedly, both the constructor and the architect of the building, in 1903.
The glass empire
In 1877, Deutsch K. Ignác took over the Glassware Store, owned by Sonnenfeld János, located on Vasile Alecsandri Street no. 4. Sonnenfeld used to sell glass
articles as well, that were made at Pădurea Neagră (Black Forest, Schwartz Wald in German, named after the first owners).
From 1900, Deutsch's company started a business with the glass and porcelain factory from Pădurea Neagră, becoming the main distributor in the markets of Transylvania, the Balkans and Austria. In 1909, Deutsch K.I. becomes a joint stock company and from 1913 it took over the production line from the glass factory.
The Deutsch company became the second important company in the field of glassware distribution in the Empire. Their commercial power was reflected even in the facade of the store, designed with large showcases in which engraved stained glass articles and porcelain painted with floral motifs were displayed.
The sons of Deutsch K.I. have contributed to the expansion of the "Deutsch glass empire ". As it was the custom at the time, after graduating in Oradea, the two brothers changed their name from Deutsch to Dénes: Edmund and Sándor. In 1911 the glass business is transferred to their names.
Dénes Edmund (Ödön) was the head of the family business, as manager of the Glass Factory from Pădurea Neagră, he used to coordinate distribution as well.
His brother, Dr Dénes Sándor, a successful lawyer, a member of the board was also a shareholder at the Lefterder and Kálman Refined Spirit Factory, and in the 1930 he became the full manager of the enterprise.
Dénes Sándor belonged to the city's elite, was a wellknown journalist, writer, playwright and a close friend of Ady Endre. The avant-garde literary movement "Holnap" (1908) was created in his apartment on Republicii Street (Fő utca). He was the first leader of the nonconformist group in the city. At the same time, he was among the financers of the first anthology launched in Oradea by this group, in 1908.
Until the World War I the members of the Deutsch family were among the most wealthy people from Oradea. Dénes Sándor was recruited and enrolled in the army, fought on the eastern front, where he fell prisoner. After a period of captivity, he returned to Oradea in a state of depression. While being away he wrote the play "Nativity of the Lord", that was staged in Budapest.
In 1917 the glass factory was sold, then in 1920 the store and the distribution company were sold to a consortium led by Markovits Herman. From 1940, the store sold exclusively porcelain items produced in Hungary. In the 1960 the shop was transformed and became the children's store, "Gulliver".
In 1970, the façade was restored, and the interior was rebuilt several times. The last restoration of the façade took place in 2018. The main colours of the façade are dark blue and grey.
The façade of Deutsch K.I store kept its charm over the century and remained one of the most attractive secession style buildings on Vasile Alecsandri Street.


The rules have changed somewhat for the patient survey. The Government now carries out a twice yearly patient survey with random patients selected and asked to participate by the consultancy firm Ipsos-Mori (who create most of the opinion polls for the government).
The practice is graded according to not only your response, but also the number of responses. So please if you receive a survey request please fill it in and send it off.
We continue to receive a very high level of support from those patients surveyed so far, for which we are very grateful. This does help us to look at the areas you think we need to improve on.

Sources say that Ecuador insurance company Bellgenica is out of business
Sources familiar with Ecuadorian insurance provider Bellgenica report that the company has closed its operations. The company, which aggressively marketed its services to foreign residents in Cuenca and elsewhere, was not answering phone calls Friday afternoon at its Quito headquarters and its office doors were locked.
It is believed that the company, at one time, had 300 to 400 expat health insurance policy holders in the Cuenca area.
Quito insurance broker Ricardo Sanchez reports that he was turned away from Bellgenica's headquarters at the Quito World Trade Center Friday when he attempted to enter. He says guards provided no explanation for his denial of entry.
Meanwhile, Bellgenica's Cuenca landlord, who asked not to be identified, says the company is seven months behind in rent. He reports that his legal representative was in Quito Friday preparing legal action to collect back rent.
Cuenca expat Garnett Stewart also says the insurance company owes him money. "I was an English-speaking consultant with Bellgenica in March 2018 but left because the company was not being transparent," he says. "I was a victim of non-payment, as many other members have been, and was never paid for my services."
Earlier in the year, Bellgenica corporate officers promised on several occasions to provide information to CuencaHighLife about the company's financial health and plans to improve service but did not follow through. On two occasions, company representatives did not show up for scheduled meetings.
In addition to Quito and Cuenca, Bellgenica also has offices in Guayaquil, Manta, Loja and Machala.

Bush to let states amend road building ban in forests
The Bush administration Friday announced states will be allowed to modify Clinton administration rules that prevent oil drilling by restricting logging and road building in about one-third of the national forests. Yet the exact manner in which states will be allowed to exercise their authority is still an open-ended question, industry and government officials concede.
Maureen Lorenzetti
OGJ Online
WASHINGTON, DC, May 4 -- The Bush administration Friday announced states will be allowed to modify Clinton administration rules that prevent oil drilling by restricting logging and road building in about one-third of the national forests.
Yet the exact manner in which states will be allowed to exercise their authority is still an open-ended question, industry and government officials concede.
The federal regulations become effective May 12.
In a US Department of Energy-funded study completed last year, researchers from Arlington, Va.-based Advanced Resources International, Inc., said an estimated (mean) 11.3 tcf of natural gas and 550 million bbl of oil could underlie inventoried roadless areas. The vast majority of those resources are in the Rocky Mountain region, where the rule would shut-in an estimated 9.4 tcf (OGJ Online, Apr. 4, 2001).
Agriculture Sec. Ann M. Veneman indicated the Department of Agriculture, through the US Forest Service, plans to propose amendments in early June that will address industry concerns over the regulations. Administration officials note that in those amendments will be more details on how and when local officials will be able to decide when a road may be built that could be used to access energy resources.
Until the picture is clearer, most industry officials that have loudly protested the roadless rule in the past are taking a wait-and-see approach.
It also remains uncertain how the decision will affect pending legal challenges by some Western states. Idaho has challenged the Jan. 12 Roadless Area Conservation rule in federal district court.
The presiding judge withheld ruling on the preliminary injunction and issued an order citing several defects with the process by which the rule was developed, and reserving a ruling pending issuance of the government's status report, due May 4.
That report, to be filed with the court later Friday, will outline the administration's intended actions in the matter, including allowing the current rule to go into effect on May 12, 2001.
States, tribes, and others have filed six lawsuits challenging this rule. The actions announced Friday by Agriculture are aimed at protecting the principles of the rule, correcting data errors, and addressing concerns raised by the court, local communities, tribes, and state governments. For example, the rule designated more than 2.5 million acres of land as roadless that actually have roads.
On Capitol Hill, a key Republican lawmaker praised Bush's decision, saying the president's action to re-examine the roadless rule was a critical step toward saving thousands of existing roads that would be permanently closed by the previous administration's rule.
"The Bush administration made the right call in re-opening the rule making process on the Roadless Area Conservation rule. The previous process was biased and flawed. More than two-thirds of the state and federal elected officials who commented to the previous administration were opposed to this policy," said House Committee on Resources Chairman James Hansen (R-Utah).
"I have no problem with protecting pristine, roadless areas. But some of this land has roads on it -- some of them are as large as interstate highways. These roads are critical to fire prevention and could play a role in future energy development. "
Environmental sources told OGJ Online that allowing states to waive some of the rules ultimately means the federal government will not be able to protect national forests that should be closed to development.
"Today's decision is a paper tiger," said one public land advocate.

Q: Getting a list of Excel files in a folder on OneDrive using VBA In Excel I recorded a macro to open a file on OneDrive for Business and the code it generated was something below which works fine:
Workbooks.Open Filename:= "https://mycopmanymy.sharepoint.com/personal/john/Documents/John/Shared/Support/SDM%20Rebates%20v30.xlsm"

The problem is that for this to work the program must know exactly the file name. What I was hoping is that the VBA would scan that specific folder and open each file so I just removed the file name and used the same URL and used the following code:
Set oFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
Set oFolder = oFSO.GetFolder("https://mycopmanymy.sharepoint.com/personal/john/Documents/John/Shared/Support/")
For Each oFile In oFolder.Files
    Debug.print(oFile.Name)
Next

This gives me path not found error.
Please note that I do not want to use a local C: path since the idea is that the users will put files in the shared folder and will run the macro on their end (i.e. my local path might be different than their local path).
Thanks!

A: Referencing SharePointURLtoUNC from the link above, you could try this:
Sub TT()
    Dim f As String, oFSO, oFolder, oFile

    f = "https://mycopmanymy.sharepoint.com/personal/john/Documents/John/Shared/Support/"
    Debug.Print "URL", f
    f = SharePointURLtoUNC(f)
    Debug.Print "UNC", f

    Set oFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
    Set oFolder = oFSO.GetFolder(f)

    For Each oFile In oFolder.Files
        Debug.Print oFile.Name
    Next
End Sub

Public Function SharePointURLtoUNC(sURL As String) As String
    Dim bIsSSL As Boolean
    bIsSSL = InStr(1, sURL, "https:") > 0
    sURL = Replace(Replace(sURL, "/", "\"), "%20", " ")
    sURL = Replace(Replace(sURL, "https:", vbNullString), "http:", vbNullString)
    sURL = Replace(sURL, Split(sURL, "\")(2), Split(sURL, "\")(2) & "@SSL\DavWWWRoot")
    If Not bIsSSL Then sURL = Replace(sURL, "@SSL\", vbNullString)
    SharePointURLtoUNC = sURL
End Function

A: I found the solution in this link:
https://officeaccelerators.wordpress.com/2015/01/29/vba-code-to-download-list-of-files-and-folders-from-sharepoint/
It might need a little bit of tweaking but it lists all the files in the specified sharepoint folder
Note You must change this line of code to fit the url of your company:
 `SharepointAddress = "https://abc.onmicrosoft.com/TargetFolder/"`

Sub DownloadListFromSharepoint()
    Dim SharepointAddress As String
    Dim LocalAddress As String
    Dim objFolder As Object
    Dim objNet As Object
    Dim objFile As Object
    Dim FS As Object
    Dim rng As Range
    SharepointAddress = "https://abc.onmicrosoft.com/TargetFolder/"

    Set objNet = CreateObject("WScript.Network")
    Set FS = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
    objNet.MapNetworkDrive "A:", SharepointAddress

    Set objFolder = FS.getfolder("A:")

    Set rng = ThisWorkbook.Worksheets(1).Range("a1")
    rng.Value = "File Name"
    rng.Offset(0, 1).Value = "Folder/File"
    rng.Offset(0, 2).Value = "Path"
    GetAllFilesFolders rng, objFolder, "" & strSharepointAddress
    objNet.RemoveNetworkDrive "A:"
    Set objNet = Nothing
    Set FS = Nothing

End Sub

Public Sub GetAllFilesFolders(rng As Range, ObjSubFolder As Object, strSharepointAddress As String)
    Dim objFolder As Object
    Dim objFile As Object

    For Each objFile In ObjSubFolder.Files
        rng.Offset(1, 0) = objFile.Name
        rng.Offset(1, 1) = "File"
        rng.Offset(1, 2) = Replace(objFile.Path, "A:\", SharepointAddress)
        Set rng = rng.Offset(1, 0)
    Next
    For Each objFolder In ObjSubFolder.subfolders
        rng.Offset(1, 0) = objFolder.Name
        rng.Offset(1, 1) = "Folder"
        rng.Offset(1, 2) = Replace(objFolder.Path, "A:\", SharepointAddress)
        Set rng = rng.Offset(1, 0)
        GetAllFilesFolders rng, objFolder, strSharepointAddress
    Next
End Sub

A: The easiest way is to Sync your SharePoint folder to your PC (In SharePoint on the web there should be an icon that says Sync). Once that is done you should see a new folder on your Windows Explorer (File Manager). Once that happens, you can scan those files just like you scan any other folder on your pc as those files are being viewed as if they are on your harddisk.

Rapper T.I. became the latest celebrity to add his two cents to the conversation on all the fatphobia and negativity surrounding "Rumors" singer Lizzo.
In a video shared on Instagram, T.I. explained that while he didn't know Lizzo on a personal level, he wanted her to remember that her talent could never be diminished by the public's perception of her weight:

"My message to Lizzo. I don't know Lizzo personally. Listen, sweetheart, you are beautiful, you are talented, you are good enough for all the great things the world has to offer, don't wait on nobody out there in the public to validate that," the rapper said.
"Their perception of you has more to do with them than it does with you. All these people who out here who have negative things to say it's because they feel negatively about themselves."
The Atlanta rapper concluded:
"F–k them people. F–k what people say," the rapper added. "They should have no jurisdiction or no hold on your life."

The vision to eliminate water scarcity and take the gospel to all of Liberia, West Africa by the year 2020 was birthed in 2008 by Christian young adults at a church in Washington D.C. led by Todd Phillips.
Together, they were inspired by the movie Amazing Grace that chronicled the life of William Wilberforce who is credited with the historic feat of ending the slave trade in England. Together, they set out to make their own history and rallied around the cause of providing a nation access to clean water and the good news of Jesus Christ.
Since 2008, The Last Well has reached over 750,000 Liberians with water and the gospel.
Worldwide, roughly 748 million people lack access to clean drinking water.
That's over twice the population of the U.S. using dirty, disease-filled water for cooking, cleaning, drinking, washing and more. Nearly half of those in need are in sub-Saharan Africa where Liberia is located. Almost one million of those live in Liberia.
As a result, tens of thousands die every day from preventable, water-related disease. Sadly, children are the most vulnerable to the effects of unsafe drinking water and sanitation problems. Of the tens of thousands who die each day, up to 90 percent are children under the age of five.

RAJA RAVI VARMA : Displaying the Modesty of Women
Oil on Canvas Raja Ravi Varma

from temple and giving alms.
If only one painter of India is to be chosen for the display of his artworks, he would surely be Raja Ravi Varma. He infused the sense of modernity into the Indian art of Painting.
Raja Ravi Varma (1848-1906 AD) got recognition for his masterly painted canvases of Hindu Gods and Goddesses. His subjects were popular mythological scenes from Hindu epics. There are two main epics in the Hindu religion: one is Mahabharata and another is Ramayana. The theme of Raja Ravi Varma's paintings always revolved around two subjects: paintings of women and painting the mythological stories from the epics. He is believed to be the initiator of Modern Indian paintings among the Indian painters.
On seeing his paintings, we would know how wealthy are his decorative details. We would be fascinated by seeing how he painted the gorgeous garments the Indian women put on in ancient and medieval India. The collection of paintings is a treasure of Indian art, along with the great miniature paintings depicted in Hamzanama, which was sponsored by Mughal Emperor Akbar.
The depiction of Hindu Gods and Goddess and the mythological stories were his recurring themes. He had executed his painting skill in epic stories and making the characters alive. In 1873, in recognition of his skill, he won the First Prize at the Madras Painting Exhibition. But his popularity gets the acknowledgement of the whole world when he received the prize at the Vienna Exhibition in 1873. He died in 1906 at the age of 58. Raja Ravi Varma is considered one of the greatest painters in the history of Indian art.
The importance of recovering the customs and the institution of the past thus inaugurating the archaeological approach to art. -- Raja Ravi Varma
The Artist of Mythological Scenes: Modest in behaviour, a perfect religious follower, Raja Ravi Varma was a man of traditions. The logical implication of this could be that 'he would be an artist choosing mythological subjects'. He did the same. He did it extraordinarily. He executed infusion of the traditional style of Indian painting with modern dimensions of European art.

Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala.
Raja Ravi Varma paintings are considered to be among the best examples of the masterly adept combination of Indian traditions with the techniques of European academic art. He took the 'modesty of a woman' as one of the subjects and he was the first Indian artist to depict the grace and modesty of women so beautifully. No physical attractions; no seductive approach. He just painted the modesty.
Raja Ravi Varma first took lessons in watercolour painting. He did it under the guidance of another master painter. Thereafter he had become a disciple of one British artist who was a painter working in oil colours. After starting working in oil, he always painted his canvases by using oil colours.
Painting Analised: He had extensively used the European style of painting. That came to his help. Look at the painting Princess Damayanti Talking with Royal Swan, shown here. It is based on one of the stories of Ramayana. We can see the sharp lining of the figures depicted: the lady and the swan. about the painting skill, the use of bright colours for the figures and subdued for the background, make the figures looking three- dimensional. Remember his learning about the European style of painting.
The painting shown here displays how the master artist had painted the modesty of women through the colours and his masterly brush strokes. Each painting shows one or another woman-specific emotion expertly executed by Raja Ravi Varma.
The British administrator Edgar Thurston had sufficiently promoted the art of Raja Ravi Varma. Raja Ravi Varma had received huge acclaim when he got an award for an exhibition of his paintings in Vienna. It was the year 1873. Raja Ravi Varma's paintings were also exhibited in the well-acclaimed exhibitions in the world elsewhere, too. One of such despatches of Raja's artwork was sent to the World's Columbian Exhibition held in Chicago in 1893. Here he was facilitated by three gold medals.

The Artist: Raja Ravi Varma was born in an aristocratic family. His was a Maharaja family, in the city of Travancore. He was a Hindu by birth. He had painted several paintings depicting Hindu Gods and Goddesses
However, he faced several social stigmas related difficulties. It was tough for him to search for appropriate models for his paintings. There was one solace. Being from a royal family, he managed the presence of several attractive women to work for him as the models for his paintings. He generally painted the Goddesses from the great mythological stories of Ramayana and other Hindu scripture.
The Art: The depiction of Hindu Gods and Goddess and other characters of the Indian mythological stories was Ravi Varma's preferred subjects. He had executed his painting skill through the epic stories and their well-known characters like Lord Rama, Sita, and Ravana. Raja Ravi Varma. got recognition for his masterly painted paintings of Hindu Gods and Goddesses and the scenes from the epics like Mahabharata and Ramayana. His paintings are considered to be among the best examples of the skilful combination of Indian traditions with the techniques of European academic art.
If only one painter of India is to be chosen for the display of his work, he would surely be Raja Ravi Varma. Before he died in 1906 at the age of 58, he had earned enough popularity to make him one of the greatest painters in the history of Indian art.
Varma's sister-in-law, Bharani Thirunal Lakshmi Bayi, Thirunal Lakshmi Bayi (1848–1901) was the Senior Rani of Travancore from 1857 till her death in 1901
A Royal Lady and Maid in the Moonlight.
The paintings are shown here display how the master artist had displayed the modesty of women through the colours and his masterly brush strokes. The postures of the women models were also traditional. Each painting shows one or another woman-specific emotion, expertly executed by Raja Ravi Varma. He first took lessons in watercolour. After that, he took formal training and became a disciple of a British oil painter.
Raja Ravi Varma had painted several portraits of his family members, too. He belonged to a Royal family of Travancore, which is situated in the southern part of India. The two portraits shown here are of Raja Ravi Varma's sister-in-law. She was known as Rani (queen) Lakshmi Bayi of Travancore. [All the mages are in Public Domain, taken from Wikimedia Commons]


Siebold's Hosta features dainty spikes of white bell-shaped flowers rising above the foliage in mid summer. Its attractive enormous textured heart-shaped leaves remain bluish-green in color throughout the season. The fruit is not ornamentally significant.
Siebold's Hosta is a dense herbaceous perennial with tall flower stalks held atop a low mound of foliage. Its wonderfully bold, coarse texture can be very effective in a balanced garden composition.
Siebold's Hosta will grow to be about 28 inches tall at maturity, with a spread of 4 feet. When grown in masses or used as a bedding plant, individual plants should be spaced approximately 4 feet apart. Its foliage tends to remain dense right to the ground, not requiring facer plants in front. It grows at a medium rate, and under ideal conditions can be expected to live for approximately 10 years.


Unified communications software specialist Mitel and enterprise comms vendor Aastra have jumped into bed in a merger that is set to create a $1.1bn (£688m) revenue company.
The deal, announced Monday, will see Mitel acquire all outstanding Aastra common shares for $6.52 plus 3.6 Mitel shares each, for a total price of approximately $374m (£234m).
The move has been billed by both parties as a largely strategic play, designed to build scale in a consolidating market and, so the duo claim, will hand it the unified comms market-leadership position in Western Europe.
The enlarged company will boast 60 million end users in over 100 countries, served by a network of about 2,500 resellers.
It hopes to lever this reseller community, where it currently claims to see little overlap, to help it exploit near-term installed base upgrade opportunities in key markets, including the UK, as well as aggressively expanding into the enterprise cloud market Stateside.
It also pointed to an increased annual R&D budget, around $45m of run rate synergies over the next two years in areas such as supply chain optimisation and facilities consolidation.
The merger will also bring debt-laden Mitel a bit more leeway in terms of loan repayment and future liquidity.
The combined company, which will retain the Mitel brand, will be based in the firm's home town of Ottawa and will be led by current Mitel CEO Richard McBee.
In a brief statement McBee said he saw the UC market as ripe for consolidation, and on the brink of a massive migration into the cloud, and hinted that he saw Mitel as potentially marginalised if it did not react to this.
"Aastra's solid financial structure, complementary portfolios, geographic reach and large installed-base immediately augment and expand Mitel's market footprint, enabling us to … leap-frog the competition," he said.

How WhatsApp Was Made
Former Yahoo engineers Brian Acton and Jan Koum just made the deal of a lifetime with agreement today to be acquired by Facebook for $16 billion.
Messaging apps are becoming one of the most competitive sectors of tech.
Apps like WeChat are used by hundreds of millions of people to send a variety of messages to people all over the world for free.
WhatsApp has led the charge with the most users but now Facebook just gained a considerable advantage.
Prior to this deal, Acton and Koum made millions of dollars without the need of advertising.
Acton and Koum make money from WhatsApp in two ways. They charge iPhone users a one-time $.99 fee upon installation. They charge Android users $.99 every year (after the first year).Lots of people have paid Acton and Koum $.99.The Wall Street Journal reports that 250 million people use WhatsApp every month.
It doesn't take a very complicated estimation to figure out that 250 million people paying $.99 once or annually adds up to a lot of money – millions and millions of dollars.
Acton and Koum haven't said so (they are very press shy), but you have to assume huge percentage of that money is going straight into their pockets. The company has taken little to zero outside investment. A year ago this time, Acton and Koum told a reporter they only employ 30 people. Their company does all its development in Russia, where there is cheap talent.
The millions Acton and Koum are making is obviously nice.
But they could make much more if they chose to.
They are two ways they could do this:
Acton and Koum could potentially make a lot more money over time by taking venture capital investment and growing WhatsApp into a larger corporation.Two industry sources tell us that late stage startup investors would love to fund Acton and Koum's project, giving it a valuation north of a billion dollars.
According to several reports, Acton and Koum could make a ton of money right away by selling their app to Google or Facebook.
A couple of days ago, Koum posted a note to the WhatsApp company blog explaining " why we don't sell ads ."
It began with a quote from the character Tyler Durden in the book "Fight Club."
"Advertising has us chasing cars and clothes, working jobs we hate so we can buy shit we don't need."
It went on:
Brian and I spent a combined 20 years at Yahoo!, working hard to keep the site working. And yes, working hard to sell ads, because that's what Yahoo! did. It gathered data and it served pages and it sold ads.
We watched Yahoo! get eclipsed in size and reach by Google… a more efficient and more profitable ad seller. They knew what you were searching for, so they could gather your data more efficiently and sell better ads.
These days companies know literally everything about you, your friends, your interests, and they use it all to sell ads.
When we sat down to start our own thing together three years ago we wanted to make something that wasn't just another ad clearinghouse. We wanted to spend our time building a service people wanted to use because it worked and saved them money and made their lives better in a small way. We knew that we could charge people directly if we could do all those things. We knew we could do what most people aim to do every day: avoid ads.
No one wakes up excited to see more advertising, no one goes to sleep thinking about the ads they'll see tomorrow. We know people go to sleep excited about who they chatted with that day (and disappointed about who they didn't). We want WhatsApp to be the product that keeps you awake… and that you reach for in the morning. No one jumps up from a nap and runs to see an advertisement.
Advertising isn't just the disruption of aesthetics, the insults to your intelligence and the interruption of your train of thought. At every company that sells ads, a significant portion of their engineering team spends their day tuning data mining, writing better code to collect all your personal data, upgrading the servers that hold all the data and making sure it's all being logged and collated and sliced and packaged and shipped out… And at the end of the day the result of it all is a slightly different advertising banner in your browser or on your mobile screen.
Remember, when advertising is involved you the user are the product.
At WhatsApp, our engineers spend all their time fixing bugs, adding new features and ironing out all the little intricacies in our task of bringing rich, affordable, reliable messaging to every phone in the world. That's our product and that's our passion. Your data isn't even in the picture. We are simply not interested in any of it.
When people ask us why we charge for WhatsApp, we say "Have you considered the alternative?"
In Silicon Valley, industry sources are at once amazed by WhatsApp's success and skeptical that Acton and Koum can sustain it.
Jan Koum's Linkedin Profile LinkedIn
One industry source told us WhatsApp's strong and distinct company culture is modeled after Craigslist.
This was not a compliment.
Despite being world famous, Craigslist is still operated as a small, profitable company by its founder, Craig Newmark.
It has made Newmark very wealthy individually, but many believe it could have been a company the size of eBay by now, if it had taken outside money and had been run by someone with greater ambitions.
This source said WhatsApp's company culture makes itless likely Acton and Koum will be able to build what many in the Valley would consider to be a real business and company.
But the thing is … from where we sit, it doesn't look like Acton and Koum much care if the rest of Silicon Valley views WhatsApp as "a real business and company."
They are already making millions off an app which is used by hundreds of millions of people.
Also, both were relatively early employees at Yahoo, and it's likely that made them financially secure.
The best evidence that the WhatsApp founders don't care about how the rest of the Valley views them is Jan Koum's Twitter account.
His avatar for it is not your typical founder's studio head shot. His bio doesn't brag about his title. It's a quote. He is followed by just 4,000 people – a lot for most people, but not very much for a Silicon Valley star. He only follows one account. It's @jesus94306, the account for Jesus Christ Silicon Valley, a witheringly satirical blog about the tech business. One of his most recent tweets is a quote from a Kanye West lyric.
"You think you free but you a slave to the funds, baby."

This is the famous"Golden Thread" that runs through the criminal law of the English-speaking world. An accused person is presumed innocent until proven guilty according to law in a fair and public hearing of an independent tribunal. This means that you cannot call a person guilty for a crime before you have all the proof that will eventually prove that hi is guilty of that crime. So, if you cannot prove that a person is actually guilty, he has all the freedom to walk out a free man.
The accused person must know what he or she is charged with, so that full "answer and defence" can be made. This means that there must be enough "particulars" (details as to time and place, acts complained of, damage caused, Criminal Code sections violated, etc.) in the charge to avoid unfair surprises at trial.
Generally, an accused person is entitled to be in court for the whole trial, as well as for any preliminary hearings, so as to be able to confront his or her accuser, and to make full answer and defence.
Generally, too, a trial is open to the public. This is important if justice is to be "seen to be done", even though it can sometimes be painful or embarrassing for some of the people involved.
What this means is: since the Crown has brought this accusation to the court, the person it is accusing does not have to say a word in his or her defence until the Crown has placed evidence before the court which, if accepted, could justify a conviction. The prosecutor, in effect, has to justify the charge before the accused has to answer it.
Further, the prosecutor must prove the Crown's case beyond a reasonable doubt. The judge or jury is not just to decide whether the accused is more likely guilty or more likely innocent. There must be convincing proof of guilt. Of course, there might always be some tiny doubt, but for this to result in an acquittal, it must come from something more solid than mere speculation.
As for people who think rules like this favour the accused too much, they should perhaps bear in mind that we are still convicting a significant number of innocent people.


Heathrow has announced the longlist of 37 companies progressing to the next round in its search for expansion Innovation Partners. Successful entrants will now have eight weeks to bring to life business cases ready to pitch to the airport's top executives, ensuring the most efficient, sustainable and affordable plan is delivered.
Some 40 additional companies, who were not successful in progressing to the next stage, will now be added to Heathrow's supplier list as the company continues to invest in its operations outside of expansion.
Parliament has entrusted us with the job of delivering Britain's new runway, in a way that benefits the whole of the country and our neighbours. Innovation Partners is further evidence of us wanting to work with anyone who wants to legitimately challenge our way of thinking.


Marquette got some good recruiting news over the weekend, when five-star class of 2019 point guard Nico Mannion put the Golden Eagles on his final list of four schools.
Marquette got some good recruiting news over the weekend when five-star 2019 point guard Nico Mannion put the Golden Eagles on his final list of four schools.
But the competition for the 6-foot-3, 180-pound Mannion will be stiff, with blue bloods Duke, Villanova and Arizona also making the cut.
Mannion was the Arizona player of the year after averaging 23.4 points, 5.8 assists, 4.7 rebounds and two steals as a sophomore in leading Pinnacle High School to the 6A state championship.
Thanks to his mop of red hair and jaw-dropping highlights, Mannion is already a star on Instagram and YouTube.
SCOUTING REPORT: 247 Sports says Mannion "does a nice job mixing scoring and creating, using his handle and quick first step to take defenders off the dribble, efficiently attacking the defense from there. He's a consistent three-point shooter who can also hit floaters, get to the basket and draw fouls."
"He is a very coachable, hard working player who loves competition. Put a number to achieve in a drill or scrimmage and he competes to get that number. Nico has such a high IQ (that) he understands the why in doing a drill in practice. Since his IQ is so high, he understands the game plans and really gets everyone involved in the game. As talented of a player he might be a better person in our community too. I feel lucky, because you do not get to coach players like this very often in your career."
STRONG BLOODLINES: Mannion's father, Pace, played six seasons in the NBA, including 35 games with the Milwaukee Bucks in the 1987-'88 season.
"I think Pace is kind of a coach's player," then-Bucks coach Del Harris told the Milwaukee Journal in 1987. "In that statistically he may not come up on the score sheet every game, but he does a lot of the little things that don't show up and I think he does help other players to be better."
Mannion's mother, Gaia, played professional volleyball in Italy.
Nico was born in Italy as his father finished up his playing career in Europe. Earlier this summer, Nico played for the Italian senior team as a 17-year-old during FIBA qualifiers.
CLOSE CONNECTION: Pace Mannion has a close friendship with Thurl Bailey. They played together in the NBA and worked alongside each other on Utah Jazz telecasts. Thurl Bailey's son, Brendan, will be a freshman on next season's MU team.
CLASS SWITCH: Mannion made the decision in July to reclassify to the 2019 class and will graduate from high school early. He was the No. 20 prospect in the 2020 class by 247 Sports and is now the 17th best in 2019.
DECISION TIME: Mannion has said that he won't make his decision until January or February because he wants to take official visits during the season to get a feel for game environments. That's good news for MU, which will play in the brand-new Fiserv Forum next season.
FURTHER READING: Sports Illustrated's Chris Ballard went deep on Mannion when the hoops star was just starting to pick up hype as a 15-year-old.
FIT WITH MU: The Golden Eagles are already poised to have a deep roster for the 2019-'20 season, with Sam Hauser, Markus Howard, Sacar Anim and Ed Morrow as seniors; Jamal Cain, Greg Elliott, Theo John and Koby McEwen as juniors and Joey Hauser, Ike Eke and Bailey as sophomores.
The Golden Eagles will have two scholarships to fill that season. If MU added a five-star point guard like Mannion, the Golden Eagles would likely boast one of the most-talented teams in the nation.

AN EXCLUSIVE SONG BY SONG INTERVIEW
Wild Harbors: Song By Song
We talk with husband/wife duo Wild Harbors about the songs on their full-length debut album.
Posted: March 16, 2019 | By: NRTeamAdmin
As alt-pop group Wild Harbors prepares to release their full-length debut album, we talk with the husband/wife duo about the songs on their highly-anticipated release.
1. Monument
This was the last song written for the album, and it coincided with us making the leap to leave a decade of other careers behind and follow God's call to focus on music. We marveled at how easy it is to forget the reasons why we do what we do when life gets hard, and we were reminded of how the Israelites built monuments to have a visual, physical reminder of what God had done for them. These reminders help us look back to what's true, as well as guide our path forward.
2. We're Getting Better
One day Chris left the house and said, "Write me a love song while I'm gone!" So, I (Jenna) did. And then together we crafted it into this song. It's a celebration of the little ways we're growing in our marriage and as people.
3. House on Fire
Dealing with conflict can be extremely challenging. Often my (Chris) response is to flee from conflict when, in fact, I should be running towards it. Moving forward towards the people we love can look scary at times, but it's our hope to do so in our marriage, friendships and life.
4. Abigail
When friends of ours gave birth prematurely to their twin daughters, they were informed by the doctor that one of the twins would likely not survive. The lyrics to the song are a retelling of the mother's prayers in that time and her prayers of gratitude now as her daughter has lived and grown.
5. Come Clean
It's nice to enjoy things and to be good at things. But when your energy is divided by trying to chase after everything at once, you don't end up getting the time to do or be what you really love, what you were made to do. In these cases, it's time to cut back on excess "good" things so that the best things can be pursued and savored.
6. Alone Together
Early in our marriage, people would sometimes remark that once we had been married long enough we would lose the spark that made our relationship special. This song was written as a response to the idea that relationships inevitably transition into isolation. We had observed that loneliness in many relationships firsthand, and we did not want the same to be true of us.
In A Long Obedience in the Same Direction, Eugene Peterson says, "All the water in the oceans cannot sink a ship unless it gets inside. Nor can all the trouble in the world harm us unless it gets within us." We've seen friends weather unfathomable amounts of suffering, and we've also felt how easy it can be to let circumstances overwhelm us. With God, though, we can instead let our struggles teach us and learn how to float.
8. Battle
After Jenna read through Priscilla Shirer's Armor of God study, we were struck by the reality of spiritual warfare in our life and how much had gone unchecked for a long time. We dug into some of the lies we were facing and the need to daily pick up our armor and press on, knowing we don't fight the battle alone.
9. Ballad of Wallace & Jessie
There is a legend that tells of an orphan named Jessie who had a premonition of the Titanic's sinking, in which she saw Wallace Hartley leading the ship's band as passengers fled to lifeboats. The story says that she recounted this vision to an attendant at the orphanage before passing away later that night. The song reflects on the sacrifice the band made, using their musical talents to literally save lives at the expense of their own.
10. Tomorrow Morning
It's easy to tell yourself you don't want to try something because you're afraid you might fail at it. We have sensed this attitude in our own lives, especially as it relates to music, and have resolved to not let the fear of failure keep us from trying. This song is reminder for us that lives can change and good things are so often just around the corner.


People walk inside JP Morgan headquarters in New York, October 25, 2013.
JPMorgan Chase & Co said on Friday it agreed to pay $4.5 billion to settle claims by investors who lost money on mortgage-backed securities before the collapse of the U.S. housing market.
The deal is separate from the preliminary $13 billion settlement JPMorgan has reached with the U.S. government that would resolve a raft of actions over residential mortgage-backed securities.
"This settlement is another important step in J.P. Morgan's efforts to resolve legacy related RMBS matters," the bank said in a statement.
The bank said it believes reserves it has built will cover the expense of "this and any remaining" mortgage securities litigation.
Under the agreement, the trustees have until January 15 to accept the offer, which may be extended for another 60 days, according to JPMorgan and Gibbs & Bruns, the Houston law firm that represented the institutional investors.
Bank of America Corp agreed to a $8.5 billion settlement in June 2011 with 22 institutional investors. That deal is still awaiting court approval.
Washington Mutual is not included in the deal because of litigation between the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp and JPMorgan over who is responsible for losses at the former mortgage lender, according to a person familiar with the matter.
The exclusion explains the difference between the amount of the announced deal and reports last month that JPMorgan was near an agreement with the investors for close to $6 billion, said another person familiar with the negotiations.
