Composites offer many advantages for industrial parts. Composite parts can be self-lubricating, corrosion resistant, and more durable than metal. For example Globe has developed a family of thermoset and thermoplastic materials ideally suited for valves, that can replace traditional brass or leaded-brass material for valve applications. Now, valves can be made with FDA compliant material, require minimal secondary grinding and finishing operations, and deliver lower-cost, higher-performing fluid control.
Do you have hard to find parts or the OEM no longer supports or supplies the part? We can take an existing part and make replacement parts for you that perform even better than the original part, or create a new part to fit your needs. Please use the contact form on this page to let us know how we can help you find the perfect part.
In the day-to-day operations of a CT/PET/PT scanner operator, several different components are often altered, adjusted, and removed to accommodate patient needs. Unfortunately, during this process, the screws and fasteners used in the machine could be dropped onto or into the bed of the scanner causing damage to the scans and even the machines themselves.
Our client came to Globe Composite to develop a solution that was cost-effective, non-magnetic, and meets the most stringent of performance requirements. Thus, the Carbon Fiber Composite Screw for CT/PET/PT Scanners was born.
Globe makes a variety of low-friction, high-compression materials that have unique self-lubricating properties, making them ideal for low rotational, heavy-duty applications. Our self-lubricating bearings can be used in some of most demanding operating environments, such as metallic bearing replacement for offshore oil rig deck cranes, forklift bearings, or minerals/mining conveyance.
Globe has devised a unique application system and high-strength material that can be applied to flow sensors and other fluid-transmission components to increase fluid transfer and reduce corrosion. We can coat pipes ranging from 4" to 50" in diameter.
Replace traditional cast iron components that are used in mineral, diamond mining, and extraction applications using Globe's durable, corrosion-resistant materials. Since the components can be made with liquid-castable materials, we can make any size or geometry part to meet the demanding requirements normally associated with mining, extraction and conveyance.
Since the modular parts of many CT/PET/PT scanning beds -- like head, arm, or leg rests -- are often moved and/or removed, a need for high-strength fasteners with superior shear and tensile properties arose. Globe Composite Solutions has formulated a low-cost, non-magnetic, high-performing material that meets this need better than any other.
Want to replace traditional brass or leaded-brass material for valve applications? Globe has developed a family of thermoset and thermoplastic materials ideally suited for valves. Now, valves can be made with FDA compliant material and require minimal secondary grinding and finishing operations to deliver lower-cost, higher-performing fluid control valves.

I Served the King of England
Bohumil Hrabal
buying options reviews
An extraordinary and subtly tragicomic novel.
In a comic masterpiece following the misadventures of a simple but hugely ambitious waiter in pre-World War II Prague, who rises to wealth only to lose everything with the onset of Communism, Bohumil Hrabal takes us on a tremendously funny and satirical trip through 20th-century Czechoslovakia.
Fiction by Bohumil Hrabal
First published in 1971 in a typewritten edition, then finally printed in book form in 1989, I Served the King of England is "an extraordinary and subtly tragicomic novel" (The New York Times), telling the tale of Ditie, a hugely ambitious but simple waiter in a deluxe Prague hotel in the years before World War II. Ditie is called upon to serve not the King of England, but Haile Selassie. It is one of the great moments in his life. Eventually, he falls in love with a Nazi woman athlete as the Germans are invading Czechlosovakia. After the war, through the sale of valuable stamps confiscated from the Jews, he reaches the heights of his ambition, building a hotel. He becomes a millionaire, but with the institution of communism, he loses everything and is sent to inspect mountain roads. Living in dreary circumstances, Ditie comes to terms with the inevitability of his death, and with his place in history.

answered 5 days ago by (user.guest)
selected 5 days ago by (user.guest)
Counters are divided into two categories, which are:
Synchronous counters
Asynchronous counters
Synchronous: They operate on a higher frequency than the asynchronous counter, they have one global clock which drives each flip-flop and allowing for output in parallel.
Asynchronous: The concept of a global universal clock does nit apply in asynchronous counters, as only one flip-flop is driven by the main clock, there by resulting in a sequence or order for input and output of the respective flip flops.

pol / economics / writing: a study of incentives
About my experience with ePolicy for Young Leaders, an online certificate course designed as an introduction to public policy.
(Certificate)
A Study of Incentives: Patents in a Pandemic
India's second wave of COVID-19 has wreaked havoc across the nation, and its citizens are gasping for oxygen, beds, ventilators, medicines, and everything in between.
With a Reported Cases curve that is refusing to plateau, it is becoming increasingly clear that there is only one way to beat the pandemic: quick and efficient vaccination.
Our quest for herd immunity through vaccinations seems to be failing though. According to experts, the poorer, developing, and most affected countries will attain herd immunity only by the next 3–4 years. Keeping this in mind, US President Joe Biden has finally joined India's proposal that seeks the emergency waiver of the World Trade Organization's Intellectual Property rules for COVID-19 vaccinations.
What is a Patent?
A patent is an exclusive right to make, use, and sell an inventive product or process. Essentially, patents act as incentives. Makers and businesses are "allowed to benefit from the fruits of their labours and merits", thus incentivizing new technologies, inventions and benefitting society as a whole.
However, in the midst of a pandemic, it enables the Big Pharma companies to retain a monopoly over their vaccines and drastically increase their profits; but at the cost of human lives.
Patents over COVID-19 vaccines, while acting as incentives, have also acted as a barrier to knowledge and technical know-how for other companies to benefit from the innovation.
The State of Developing Countries under a Patent System:
To make maximum profits, it is essential that Big Pharma companies maintain their monopoly over the vaccine technology (especially with the long-term perspective of 'booster' shots). While many qualified manufacturers have sought approval to produce mRNA vaccines on a collaborative basis, Pfizer and Moderna have either outrightly refused or failed to respond.
The World Health Organization started the COVID-19 Technology Access Pool and the COVAX initiative to facilitate a more equitable battle against the pandemic. However, zero vaccine originators have shared any data. The number of doses given to the COVAX initiative as a percentage of total doses is absolutely dismal, barely adding to the global supply.
The WTO waiver would only facilitate voluntary arrangements with global manufacturers and will not legally force the Big Pharma companies to share technological know-how with anyone. These voluntary globalized arrangements won't deplete their profits by any means: they yet stand to make billions in royalty and compensation as IP holders despite having got large government funding for R&D.
"The very poor in the developing world are condemned to death". Under the current system, priorities are clear: companies are valuing profits over lives. What this issue boils down to, however, is what we must aim to solve: the issue of incentives.
An Alternative:
The pandemic has opened our eyes to the inequal loss of lives suffered because of the current pharmaceutical and healthcare system. From 2007–2010, a team of economists led by Nobel laureate Joseph Stiglitz explored alternative ways of incentivizing pharmaceutical innovation without restricting knowledge. Having conducted this research 10 years before a pandemic of this scale shocked the world, the researchers were way ahead of their time. They suggested 'a medical prize fund that would reward those who discover cures and vaccines.'
In the case of fatal pandemic diseases, it is essential to follow an "open science" approach where the emphasis is on saving lives over making a profit. In order to pursue this, there must be free knowledge and no IP/Patent considerations. According to Stiglitz, a medical prize fund would not only cover the costs of research and development but would also lead to a more equitable distribution of the resources (especially in today's pandemic world).
The researchers suggest that financing of this prize fund can easily be undertaken by the governments. In 2007 and even today (!), governments, directly or indirectly, already pay for a majority of essential drug-related research.
For example, the mRNA technology research (innovated for the Moderna and Pfizer vaccines) was conducted by the National Institutes of Health, a federal government agency, in collaboration with other publicly funded universities and organizations. In the case of the Oxford/AstraZeneca vaccine, more than 97% of the funding for research was sourced from public money. Re-orienting this public money towards a fund that rewards innovation can incentivize WHILE not acting as a barrier to knowledge especially in suffering, developing countries.
As the number of deaths due to COVID increase, the medical inequality of today goes against any principle of global justice.
We must reorient our priorities as a global society. We need to undertake a collective analysis of alternative systems on a global level.
To effectively deal with a pandemic of this scale, we must again re-analyze the issue of incentives.

Leaked Nexus 5X renders arrive to spoil the surprise even further
LG is making one of the two new Nexus phones, and this is our best look yet
by Andrew Hayward
Follow @ahaywa
24 September 2015 / 4:41MYT
If we learned anything from Apple's event earlier this month, it's that secrets are (mostly) dead: by the time gadgets are announced these days, we've already heard and often seen so much about them via leaks and reports.
That's definitely true again with the impending launch of the Nexus 5X and Nexus 6P phones from Google. The rumours started in February, pointing towards multiple models, and we know that LG's making the smaller one, and Huawei's got the phablet. We've had seemingly solid specs for both devices for weeks.
Leaked photos and images have been pouring out of late, and earlier today, we shared packaging leaks for both phones and renders of the Nexus 6P, via Android Police. And now that very same source has sharp-looking renders of LG's Nexus 5X, which apparently comes in white, black, and light teal backing options; a pulled Amazon listing called them Quartz White, Charcoal Black, and Ice Blue.
It's our best view yet of the proper successor to the great Nexus 5, which reportedly offers a 5.2in 1080p display, a Snapdragon 808 chip inside, and 3GB RAM, although some listings have suggested 2GB instead. It also has a fingerprint sensor on the back, just below the slight camera bump, and it'll ship with Android 6.0 Marshmallow, of course.
While some bits remain unclear - pricing, for example - it seems like we've got most of the big details in place for the Nexus 5X and Nexus 6P. Now, all that's left is for Google to confirm everything and let us at them, which the company is expected to do at an event on 29 September, next week.

Smartwork A few days ago, Microsoft launched Windows Cortana for iOS that's to be tested with a few users preferably those in China and US before it's finally let out to the market to the other users. According to Jennifer Reynolds (Microsoft's spokespersons), the full app is at its last stages of production and is slated for release before the end of this year.
Selected testers are going to get the app in a few weeks time and Microsoft will be monitoring them closely while releasing updates with a view to improving the functionality and features of the app. All these can actually be termed as the final test and tune ups before the app is fully released. The reason for targeting insiders is because they are already in touch with Windows and of course, Cortana.
For the last six months, Microsoft has been internally conducting Cortana for iOS alpha tests and from the observations and results obtained, the app apparently works and in fact, resembles its Android versions and Windows 10. However, it is expected that it will bring some new features and better functionality than what users are currently used to. This has been termed by analysts as a grand entry to the Beta territory. Do you think that's truly the case? Whether it's true or false, the fact is that Insiders of Windows have openly expressed their enthusiasm over the opportunity to have it put on test. Let's hope that the Apple is going to work with Microsoft and Google to allow Cortana's complete integration.
Users who will gain most from the app are those with iPhones but are comfortable and have invested in the stack of Windows. It's important to note that Cortana on iOS is not a replacement of Siri. It is addictive to it. What the company is seeking is just a test of the much awaited Cortana beta for iPad and iPhone as it gears up to the users. So as a user and an enthusiast, do not let your life be confined to a single device and so is your digital assistant. Last August, Microsoft availed its Cortana digital assistant to users of Android and is now on the process of availing it for iOS though as a test before it is fully released for use.
Users wishing to give it a try on their iPhones have the freedom to sign up for the program. A limited number is needed.

James Lee and his family took on the tenancy of the 305-acre Huxham Farm at Stoke Canon, near Crediton, only 18 months ago but already he's been getting the best out of the land.
"Looking to the long term, my intention is to look after this land but, at the same time, to farm how I want to farm. There's a tendency in modern farming of 'take take take' and farming for the moment, rather than for the future," James explains.
He's also hoping that by sharing his experiences through AHDB's Monitor Farm programme, he can help other farmers to think differently about their own operations. At the most recent meeting, held in December, he was joined by Philip Wright, an independent soil consultant who's been working with James to advise on soil structure, and the importance of managing and minimising soil compaction during field operations.
"Soil's about being far more than a growing substrate," Philip explained to attendees. "Crops need soils with an adequate supply of air and oxygen for the plant roots, and a good amount of water. To deliver that, we need to maintain the soil's porosity – in effect, a measure of the soil's level of compaction. On a well-structured soil, the aim should be for about 50% porosity – an equal number of 'gaps' in the soil as there are soil particles.
Out in the field, in a crop of winter wheat following grass, Philip pointed out that it was difficult to see – on the surface – where the power harrow combination tractor had passed through. Digging a couple of inspection holes – one in the line of the track and one dead-centre – allowed a visual inspection of soil compaction. An even clearer measure came from conducting infiltration tests.
"Although not truly scientific, by recording the amount of time taken for a given amount of water to drain away we can have a measure of the soil's compaction," explains Philip. "We recorded a 20-fold reduction in infiltration rate where there's been traffic.
Trafficking vulnerable soils can put pressure on the soil throughout the profile, Philip warned, but there are ways to reduce it. "Tyre pressures are the simplest and most 'accessible' option," he said, citing one example where just a 0.4bar reduction in tractor tyre pressure resulted in a 10-fold increase in infiltration rate.
"It's really worth making the effort on pressure. It's such an easy way to make a big difference to crop performance, and it's easy to get advisory visits from some of the tyre manufacturers to help you find the options best suited to you.
Even if the benefits to crop and soil structure fail to impress, the potential savings in fuel should sway any doubters. Trials showed that lower tyre pressures during field operations could deliver a £4/ha saving in diesel. That's because a high-pressure tyre in soft ground creates a deep rut; in moving forward, the tyre is constantly trying to climb out of that rut. It's effectively going uphill all the time, resulting in the increased fuel consumption.
"We've given him confidence to try some of the more radical approaches. Already I've seen a change in the soil. There's more life, more fibre, more spring in it; it's a heartening result.
The next Crediton Monitor Farm meeting is on 11 February 2016 at 11am. To attend the meeting, email AHDB Cereals & Oilseeds Regional Manager Philip Dolbear, philip.dolbear@ahdb.org.uk.

Los Angeles School District Fighting an Ongoing Ransomware Attack
ByTechnoidHost Posted on September 6, 2022
The Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) has confirmed it is fighting an ongoing ransomware attack causing technical distruptions
LAUSD is the second largest school district in the U.S. after New York City Department of Education and serves over 600,000 children. These students attend more than 1,000 schools with 26,000 teachers available to teach them.
The district experienced some cyber hacking over the weekend, and later figured out that it was a ransomware attack.
The LAUSD will be back to usual operations on Tuesday — after observing Labor Day on Monda, with no technical impact expected on the daily functions of the district.
The school district warned that there are computer and email malfunctions ongoing in the area. A specific school confirmed that Google Drive and Schoology, a learning management system for K-12 schools, educators, and students might not be fully functional.
From their preliminary analysis, LAUSD has seen no impact on employee health, payroll or safety mechanisms. They have yet to respond to our questions, but it is possible that files have been stolen. Ransomware actors typically release files still before demanding a ransom payment. It is as of yet unknown who was responsible for the attack.
LAUSD is investigating and responding to the incident. LAUSD was brought together with the White House for a rapid response to an incident, led by the FBI and DHS.
The LAUSD will provide monthly updates and mandatory cybersecurity training for employees and undergo an assessment of existing technology, critical processes, and current infrastructure.
Brett Callow claims that LAUSD is a fiftieth education sector which was attacked with ransomware. According to him, the list of victims includes companies operating in 26 universities and colleges and 24 districts, which have a total of 2,000 schools.

He will spend four months at Harvard (September-December 2006) to conduct research on "A Community of Others: The Identity of the Ukrainian Intellectual in Post-Soviet Ukrainian Prose." Andryczyk will study the depiction of the Ukrainian intellectual throughout the history of modern Ukrainian literature. As part of his work, he will look at the re-engagement of the Ukrainian intellectual in society during the Orange Revolution, the emergence of a new generation of writers, and the recent new scholarship that has been published on the topic.


Feedback — Haley Gershony, M.A., M.Ed, R.C.C.
I've been lucky enough to be invited into many people's lives over the years. On this page I've put together some of my most inspiring feedback! Please don't hesitate to send me your feedback, good or bad, at anytime.


Remember the Roland Sands SuperSingle? It seems that Aprilia has taken an interest in the project, commissioning Roland to build a one off prototype based on the SXV 4.5 supermoto. Piaggio -- Aprilia's parent company -- presented this concept at its 2008 dealer meeting earlier this month to see if they thought there'd be enough customer interest to justify a production run. The interesting thing about the RoadRacer is that it only changes very few of the major components, meaning production would require very little R&D and making it more likely that we could see a version of this bike available at dealers in the near future.
It'd be easy to point out the details on this bike that clash with each other. The frame looks a little odd paired with the fairing and fuel tank. The spoked wheels don't match the modern diamond-shape swingarm. But the rough and ready nature of this bike is the point. You could build this bike in your garage right now, or you could wait for Aprilia to do it for you. They don't need to invest millions of dollars in new model development; you don't need to wait 10 years to see the fruit of that project.
Demand for a sportsbike using Aprilia's 450 or 550cc v-twin has been high ever since the engine was unveiled. The closest we've come so far is a handful of projects -- the Tucscon BT550 Superleggera for instance -- that have either shoehorned the engine into an RS250 chassis or had a bespoke steel trellis made. This RSD RoadRacer is our best chance yet to get a 450cc v-twin powered sportsbike that we can buy.

NYT: America's anti-ISIS strategy in Iraq is giving Iran a big boost in the region
Noah Rothman Mar 05, 2015 4:41 PM ET
The White House's relationship with the Islamic Republic of Iran is an increasingly complicated one.
The administration has made it plain that one of the president's highest priorities before he leaves office is to secure a deal, any deal, with Iran over its nuclear program. That drive has led to the president's ongoing and increasingly personal conflict with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, as well as to clashes with those members of his own party who would like to create a tripwire that would impose stronger sanctions on Iran should negotiations fail.
But many have suggested that the administration is sacrificing its own leverage over the Islamic Republic as it has increasingly come to rely on Tehran to provide ground forces for operations aimed at dislodging the Islamic State from the areas of Iraq that ISIS forces presently occupy.
Even The New York Times has begun to make note of the fact that the White House's goals for an equitable nuclear accord with Iran might be frustrated by the administration's increasing reliance on Iran as a source of troops in the war on ISIS.
"The only way in which the Obama administration can credibly stick with its strategy is by implicitly assuming that the Iranians will carry most of the weight and win the battles on the ground," said Vali R. Nasr, a former special adviser to Mr. Obama who is now dean of the School of Advanced International Studies at Johns Hopkins University. "You can't have your cake and eat it too — the U.S. strategy in Iraq has been successful so far largely because of Iran."
American military planners see few alternatives to relying on Iranian Quds forces and Shiite militias loyal to Tehran to serve as the indigenous "boots on the ground" in the war against ISIS in the Iraqi theater, but many are expressing the concern that those forces will exacerbate sectarian tensions in Iraq if and when they wrest control of Sunni-dominated cities from ISIS.
This, as well as the increased influence over Iraqi affairs that Iran will secure in a post-ISIS environment, are sources of concern for Congressional Republicans. The Times' sources conceded that even greater Iranian domination over affairs in Baghdad will be a likely result of the administration's current approach to the war against the Islamic State.
This week, Republican lawmakers warned that Iran's influence in Iraq would increase with the Tikrit offensive. "We share the president's goal to degrade and defeat ISIL," Senator John McCain, Republican of Arizona, and Senator Lindsey Graham, Republican of South Carolina, said in a statement Tuesday. "But success in this mission will not be achieved by capitulating to Iran's ambitions for regional hegemony."
Landon Shroder, an intelligence analyst for corporations in Iraq who was in Baghdad last summer when Mosul fell, countered that the worry that Iran will gain influence in Iraq ignores the reality that Iran's Shiite government is already a key Iraqi ally.
"By this stage, everybody who observed what happened in Iraq with the Islamic State should know that the main influencer in Iraq is Iran," he said in a telephone interview on Wednesday. "That's an unpopular perception in the United States, after spending so much money and lives lost in the conflict, but it's reality."
It is only logical to conclude that America's reliance on the Iranian military to contain and roll back ISIS in Iraq is complicating nuclear negotiations. It would be unreasonable to suggest that they are not. Given these conditions, it would seem that Netanyahu's fear that a bad deal with Iran is in the White House's best interests are founded in reality.

The Compassionate Mantra of Om Mani Padme Hum
KenWu
Om Mani Padme Hum Mantra
Chenrezig
Om Mani Padme Hum Tattoo
Om Mani Padme Hum is a popular mantra in the religion of Buddhism and almost every lay person that follows this teaching will somehow know about it.
According to Buddhism, this ancient mantra is associated with the bodhisattva of compassion, Avalokiteshvara. For the Chinese, Avalokiteshvara is normally known as 'Guan Yin' which translates to Goddess of Mercy in English.
The Tibetan, on the other hand, refers this bodhisattva as 'Chenrezig'. It is said that all the teachings of the Buddha are contained in this Om Mani Padme Hum mantra and which the Tibetan buddhists believe that saying the mantra (prayer) out loud or silently to oneself, would invoke HIS powerful benevolent attention.
Additionally, Chenrezig holds a special place in the heart of Tibetan people because they regard him as their proctector. This is because according to one of the dharma stories, Chenrezig is sent by Amitabha Buddha to look over the people of Tibet with the intention to help them to ending their sufferings.
Tibetan Buddhism also states that Chenrezig is renowned as the embodiment of the compassion of all the Buddhas (TEN DIRECTIONS) and this is why HE is highly regarded in the Vajrayana Buddhism.
The Tibetans also believe that the Dalai Lama is an earthly manifestation of Chenrezig and that's why His Holiness is well respected by all the Tibetan people and also the followers of Tibetan Buddhism.
In Tibetan, this mantra is pronounced as "Om mani peme hung" and by practicing this mantra, it is believed that the practitioner will be able to accumulate merits and also purify his/her bad karmas and delusions.
It is very common that every Tibetan recites this mantra even though they do not understand the deep meaning behind it. For they know this mantra will bring peace and give them strengh when facing difficult situations or during turbulent times. One of my best friends that visited Tibet and Bhutan some years ago told me that he would hear this mantra played in almost every tea house that he stopped by.
Tibetan people recite this mantra thousands time a day as part of their daily prayer practice. Apart from that, they also carve this mantra on rocks and insert paper written with this mantra into holy statues and prayer wells. It is said that by doing this, the mantra's effects will be increased tresmendously.
According to wikipedia, a mantra is a sound, syllable, word or a group of words that is considered capable of "creating transformation".
On the other hand, Dr Deepak Chopra in "The Spontaneous Fulfillment of Desire", explains that the word "mantra" is actually made up of two components: man, which is the root sound of the word "mind," and tra, which is the root sound of the word "instrument." So the word mantra literally means "an instrument of the mind."
And by uttering a simple pattern of these sacred sounds, the practitioner will gain an insightful experience towards what the mantra represents. It is believed that mantras can actually promote physical healing, magnifying the powers of the mind and also attracting abundance into your lives.
The most important aspect when reciting a mantra is actually lies in the pronounciation itself. Accurate pronounciation is crucial for the mantra to take effect and some even said that reciting a mantra without knowing the meaning will work too. However, according to some, by knowing its profound meaning, the power of the mantra will get magnified. This is absolutely true when the practitioner does it with focus and single-mindedly.
The Meaning of Om Mani Padme Hum
Now, what is the meaning of Om Mani Padme Hum?
The middle part of the mantra, Mani Padme is often interpreted as "jewel in the lotus" and so it is translated as "Behold! The jewel in the lotus!" or "Praise to the jewel in the lotus".
However, according to Donald Lopez, Mani Padme is in fact addressing a boddhisattva called "Jewel-Lotus", which in fact an alternate attribution given to the compasionate bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara. This mantra which is preceded by the Om syllable and followed by the Hum syllable, actually do not have linguistic meaning at all.
Please also note that both the Om and Hum sounds are actually the natural sound of the universe and they can be found everywhere in the mother nature. Even these sounds also serve as the "base" sound of every sound in the world.
In short, it could be concluded that this mantra is praising the bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara which itself represents compassion. Practising this mantra tunes one mind into loving kindness and igniting the compasionate heart towards every sentient being including oneself.
Exact Meaning of Om Mani Padme Hum
However, it is important to point out here that it is quite impossible to give one single exact meaning to "Om Mani Padme Hum". This mantra has been interpreted by practitioners in many other ways; however, it is yet to divert far from its base meaning of compassion. Please find below the interpretation by His Holiness Dalai Lama and Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche.
From His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama
It is very good to recite the mantra Om mani padme hum, but while you are doing it, you should be thinking on its meaning, for the meaning of the six syllables is great and vast …. The first, OM … symbolizes the practitioner's impure body, speech, and mind; it also symbolizes the pure exalted body, speech, and mind of a Buddha….
The path is indicated by the next four syllables. MANI, meaning jewel, symbolizes the … altruistic intention to become enlightened, compassionate and loving….
The two syllables, PADME, meaning lotus, symbolize wisdom….
Purity must be achieved by an indivisible unity of method and wisdom, symbolized by the final syllable HUM, which indicates indivisibility….
Thus the six syllables, om mani padme hum, mean that in dependence on the practice of a path which is an indivisible union of method and wisdom, you can transform your impure body, speech, and mind into the pure exalted body, speech, and mind of a Buddha….
— H.H. Tenzin Gyatso, 14th Dalai Lama, "Om Mani Padme Hum" (from wikipedia)
From Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche
"The mantra Om Mani Päme Hum is easy to say yet quite powerful, because it contains the essence of the entire teaching.
When you say the first syllable Om it is blessed to help you achieve perfection in the practice of generosity, Ma helps perfect the practice of pure ethics, and Ni helps achieve perfection in the practice of tolerance and patience.
Pä, the fourth syllable, helps to achieve perfection of perseverance, Me helps achieve perfection in the practice of concentration, and the final sixth syllable Hum helps achieve perfection in the practice of wisdom."So in this way recitation of the mantra helps achieve perfection in the six practices from generosity to wisdom. The path of these six perfections is the path walked by all the Buddhas of the three times. What could then be more meaningful than to say the mantra and accomplish the six perfections?"
— Dilgo Khyentse Rinpoche, Heart Treasure of the Enlightened Ones (from wikipedia)
Mantras can be practiced by everyone regarding of creeds and religions. And this is absolutely true with Buddhism as often it can be regarded as a form of teaching or a special kind of knowledge rather than a pure religion.

Thanks Vinaya! Actually this mantra (and of course all other buddhist mantras) are from Sanskrit. Buddhism has its root in india and nepal.
Vinaya Ghimire from Nepal on July 21, 2012:
Very good interpretation of the Great Buddhist Mantra. This Tibetan mantra also has Sanskrit equivalent.
Hi soumyasrajan, thanks for the comment. Highly appreciate it!

Q: set different ids/entities/Sync entity relationships (for OneToMany) How can I update/set different relationship entities (or IDs) for my OneToMany relationship? The entities are these:

@Entity()
export class Role extends BaseEntity {
    @PrimaryGeneratedColumn('uuid')
    id: string

    @Column()
    name: string

    @OneToMany(type => RolePermission, entity => entity.role, {cascade: true})
    permissions: RolePermission[]
}

@Entity('role_permission')
export class RolePermission extends BaseEntity {
    @PrimaryGeneratedColumn("uuid")
    id: string

    @Column()
    permission: string

    @ManyToOne(type => Role, entity => entity.permissions)
    role: Role
}

I am trying to update the role's permissions but with no luck. I have tried this:
        const role = await Role.findOneByOrFail({id})
        await role.save({
            data: {
                name: form.name,
                permissions: form.permissions.map(permission => RolePermission.create({permission}))
            },
        })

But it doesn't set the new related entities in the table. I can still see the old relationships
I have also tried this:
        const role = await Role.findOneByOrFail({id})
        await Role.update({id},{
            name: form.name,
            permissions: form.permissions.map(permission => RolePermission.create({permission}))
        })

But I get this error for this one: Cannot query across one-to-many for property permissions
I have also tried this:
        const role = await Role.findOneByOrFail({id})
        role.name = form.name
        role.permissions = form.permissions.map(permission => RolePermission.create({permission, role}))
        await role.save()

But I get QueryFailedError: ER_BAD_NULL_ERROR: Column 'role_id' cannot be null EVEN if I specify the role when creating a RolePermission
Also, tried this:
await DB.createQueryBuilder().relation(Role, "permissions").of(roleId).add(permissionsIds)

But this one doesn't do anything. The table still has the old relationships
Any other solutions to this?

ClimateNews
Best UK politician: Caroline Lucas
Chosen,Johann Hari
Saturday 17 April 2010 00:00
Since 1997, Britain's emissions of warming gases have actually risen – and if you factor in the emissions from goods now manufactured for us in China, they have risen dramatically. Very few politicians have been honest about the crisis we face, or demanded the swift transition to an economy powered by the power of the sun, the wind and the waves. Working on the inside, the Environment Secretary Ed Miliband has a strong claim to this award, often trying to drag other government departments towards radical low- carbon approaches. But he is, in the end, too tainted by ineffective compromises, and by his sometime promotion of false solutions like the myth of "clean coal", to clinch it.
The politician who has most inspiringly proposed solutions to the climate crisis is in another party and another parliament altogether. Caroline Lucas joined the Green Party 20 years ago when it had a shabby office and almost no full-time staff. She has played a key role in leading it now to the brink of a historic breakthrough – her probable election in Brighton Pavilion next month as the first Green to the British Parliament.
In the European Parliament, without playing down the potential catastrophe of global warming for a second, Lucas has always proposed an optimistic and inspiring vision of how dealing with this crisis can also solve our other sicknesses. She has pioneered policies that can make Britain a more equal and fulfilled society, where instead of maniacally consuming ever more meaningless stuff, we find meaning in each other, and in the common cause of saving the biosphere. In a properly democratic electoral system, this vision could spurt ahead: in France, the Green party beat the Socialist party – the equivalent to Labour – at the last European elections.
If nothing else, there should be one great moment in the 2010 election: were you up for Lucas's win?

While You Were Sleeping: 5 stories you might have missed, April 23 edition
https://str.sg/3Miz
Obama says climate change 'can no longer be denied'
US President Barack Obama warned Wednesday that climate change "can no longer be denied," as he travelled to Florida's Everglades in a high-profile push to raise awareness about the dangers facing the environment.
Obama spent Earth Day in the subtropical wilderness to caution that a warming planet is leading to "stronger storms" and "deeper droughts" that risk hurting the economy as much as the ecosystem.
"Climate change can no longer be denied. It can't be edited out. It can't be omitted from the conversation," he said, ahead of a crucial period that is likely to be vital in shaping his environmental legacy.
Kerry's sweet secret... he once owned a cookie shop
Globe-trotting US diplomat John Kerry is known for his sweet tooth. But he surprised top chefs this week by revealing he loves to cook, and once ran a bakery.
Back in the 1970s when he was "bored stiff" working in a private law practice in his home town of Boston, he and a friend hit upon a madcap idea to open a late-night cookie shop.
"We came out after dinner, and I was craving a chocolate chip cookie. And this has been a craving all my life," Kerry joked in the sumptuous surroundings of the State Department at an event attended by some of America's top chefs.
"So we said, 'Wow, there's nowhere in Boston down here where we can buy a great cookie late at night.'"
Streaming, binge-watching gain in US: Survey
American consumers are increasingly streaming television instead of viewing live broadcasts, often using services like Netflix for binge-watching, a survey showed Wednesday.
In the survey by research firm Deloitte, 56 per cent of consumers said they streamed movies at least once a month and 53 per cent said they did so for television programmes.
The survey found 45 per cent of viewing time was via live television for all of those surveyed - but only 28 per cent for the 14-25 age group and 35 per cent for those aged 26-31.
"The notion of consumers sitting in their living rooms to watch television shows at programmed times, especially among younger generations, is quickly giving way to a market of viewers using multiple devices inside and outside the home to consume content when and where they choose to watch," the study authors said.
Football: Hernandez sends Real into semis at Atletico's expense
Javier Hernandez scored the winner two minutes from time as Real Madrid once again shattered Atletico Madrid's Champions League dreams with a 1-0 win on aggregate to progress to the semi-finals.
The tie was a repeat of last season's final, won by Real 4-1 after extra-time, but Atletico had gone unbeaten in seven previous meetings against their city rivals this season.
However, the visitors had to play the final 14 minutes with 10 men as Arda Turan was shown a second yellow card and Hernandez finally broke the deadlock over the two legs when he slotted into an empty net from Cristiano Ronaldo's pass.
Sandra Bullock named People's 'Most Beautiful Woman'
Sandra Bullock was named the World's Most Beautiful Woman for 2015 by People magazine Wednesday, following in the footsteps of Gwyneth Paltrow, Julia Roberts and last year's Lupita Nyong'o.
The 50-year-old Oscar winner, a Hollywood veteran known for her self-deprecating humour, said she initially thought the magazine's honour was "ridiculous."
"Real beauty is quiet, especially in this town," she told People.
It was more important to "be a good person, be a good mom, do a good job with the lunch, let someone cut in front of you who looks like they're in a bigger hurry," she added.

Maná: Sept. 18 @ Citizens Business Bank Arena
By Marvin Vasquez
Singer Fher Olvera and drummer Alex González of Maná performing.
(Credit: Marvin Vasquez)
Universally acclaimed Mexican rock band Maná made a unique stop to Southern California when the music act performed at Citizens Business Bank Arena in Ontario before a near sold out show Tuesday night.
It was truly an event like no other, given the different venue, area and weather conditions during this month of September. Nevertheless, that did not matter one bit for these distinguished music artists and their fans, who joyfully attended to not only support Maná, but to witness an electrifying show filled with non-stop hit tracks.
Known as the pioneers of Spanish rock, the quartet consists of singer-songwriter Fher Olvera, drummer Alex González, guitarist Sergio Vallín and bassist Juan Calleros. Olvera also plays the guitar while González occasionally sings. They all appeared on stage at the same time, as always, and that's a popular act of them - it means they are a team. Within the group, no one is greater than the other; their integrity over the years has been beyond admirable, to say the least.
Maná began with the infectious "Oye Mi Amor" from the 1992 album ¿Dónde Jugarán Los Niños?. This track, arguably its most popular tune, was perfect as the opener. It provided an already energized crowd more adrenaline to go along with its ecstatic demeanor. "Dejame Entrar" followed, and that just added even more thrilling moments.
The Guadalajara, Jalisco-based group continued its grand show with several melodies in the likes of "Mariposa Traicionera," "Clavado En Un Bar" and "Manda Una Señal." In between, Vallin handed a compelling electric guitar solo.
Although Vallin's solo was a true piece of art, González's lone drum playing for more than seven minutes elevated the audience's satisfaction. Near the end, he drank a delicious Corona. But González's singing in "Me Vale" truly cultivated several genuine memories; it's a track detailing someone's passion towards not caring about what people think or say.
"El Muelle de San Blás" and "Rayando el Sol" came before the encore, which included "Labios Compartidos" and "Corazón Espinado." In all and as always, Maná granted a fabulous night for those in attendance.

What did you learn about pseudocode from working on this challenge?
How crucial it can be to breaking down the steps!

What are the tradeoffs of using Arrays and Hashes for this challenge?
Arrays are better for sorting, but not as good at defining values for a specific key

What does a method return?
It returns an output based on the code that was applied to the original input.

What kind of things can you pass into methods as arguments?
Whatever it accepts! Usually a kind of object.

How can you pass information between methods?
If you return something in a method, you can then use that return in another method.

What concepts were solidified in this challenge, and what concepts are still confusing?
How to manipulate hashes, and also how to pass information from method into another.

Trojský mlýn je bývalý panský vodní mlýn v Praze 7-Troji v ulici Povltavská, který stojí na pravém břehu Vltavy jihozápadně od Trojského zámku, kde sousedí s jižní částí Zoo Praha. Spolu se zámkem je chráněn jako nemovitá kulturní památka České republiky.

Historie
Vodní mlýn je zmíněn roku 1433, kdy zde byl mlynářem Míka ze Zadního Ovence. Rokem 1534 je datovaná úmluva sousedů ze Zadního Ovence s mlynářem Janem Kopanem, podle které je v místě zapovězen rybolov. V letech 1565–1574 je zde připomínán mlynář Šebestián Rouchovanský ze Zadního Ovence, který vlastnil viniční pozemky v okolí, například stráň na vrchu Hradiště u Holešovic o výměře 5 strychů, kterou poté prodal Jakubu Popelářovi z Předního Ovence.

V roce 1603 byl majitelem mlýna královský místokomorník Jaroslav Vchynský z Vchynic (†1614). Od něj o čtyři roky později koupila mlýn s pilou, štěpnici, luka, dědiny, háj, vinici a platy z vinic Alžběta z Lobkowicz; mlýn je uváděn "z kamene postavený s klenutou světničkou". Roku 1624 jej získal Albrecht z Valdštejna a od něj za 5500 kop grošů míšeňských Maxmilián z Valdštejna.

V roce 1678 prošel mlýn přestavbou a roku 1707 při něm postavil mlynář z Císařského mlýna jez v hlavním řečišti Vltavy. Zvýšená hladina vody ohrožovala domy v Troji i mlýn, který je uváděn jako zpustlý. Tereziánský katastr z roku 1757 jej také uvádí jako zpustlý a k němu majitele mlynáře Václava Masáka. Majitel jménem Masák je uváděn i roku 1840 a kolem tohoto roku je odtokový kanál značen jako suchý. Pravděpodobně v roce 1857 byla v místech mlýna postavena sýpka.

Popis
Mlýnice a dům byly pod jednou střechou, ale dispozičně oddělené. Později postavená sýpka je mohutná vícepodlažní stavba ze smíšeného zdiva (cihly, opuka, pískovcové kvádry). Její severní trakt tvoří jádro zrušeného mlýna, ze kterého se dochovalo rozsáhlé sklepení s valenou klenbou.

Voda k mlýnu vedla náhonem a odtokovým kanálem se vracela zpět do řeky. Tento náhon zčásti dosud existuje, sousední Zoologická zahrada jej po úpravě využívá k napájení vodních ploch pro ptactvo.

Everyone says that gift certificates are sooo impersonal, but let's be real: in a world full of endless options online and in stores (basically everywhere we turn), not to mention the relentless temptation of in-your-face ads via various social media in all its glory, it is absolutely fair to say that it is more than challenging nowadays to find the perfect gift for everyone who makes your list. And frankly, I have yet to meet one person on the receiving end who does not appreciate the sentiment of a gift certificate; it says "I thought of you enough to get the card, but love you enough to allow you to pick what you love and not pretend you love what I picked out for you."
