We review Tapestry, a civilization building game published by Stonemaier Games. In Tapestry, you are tasked with taking your fledgling civilization from the early eras to the modern age.
Rub rub. Rub rub. WHOOSH. FIRE. You've done it. You've controlled fire. Nothing is going to stop your civilization from taking over the world now. Before you know it, you'll be headed to the moon and deploying mechs to vanquish your enemies. And you'll do it all in under 2 hours.
That, anyway, is the promise of Tapestry. A beginning of time to modern (or near future) civilization-building game that isn't going to take you all day. So, how does it work, and does it fulfill its promise? Time to find out.
Gameplay Overview:
In Tapestry, you'll start the game being given two different civilization powers and choosing one to represent your people in the game. Additionally, you'll get a capital city map that you'll try to populate with buildings and landmarks. These civs will give you a unique ability that you'll be able to use throughout the game.
Getting your civilization is a huge part of the game as it will often give you a direction for the rest of the game. From there, each turn you'll either take an income turn to earn points and gather resources, or an advance turn to progress on one of the four tracks in the game.
Each civ offering a wholly different experience.
You'll only take five income turns in the entire game, generally when you are out of resources to spend on other things. When you do, you'll get to activate your civilization and play a tapestry card which gives you another unique bonus, some of which are a quick injection of resources or points, while others give you an ability for the entire era.
On an advance turn, you'll have to spend some resources and then you'll gain benefits and optional bonuses. While there are some different rewards on each track, generally they work as such:
Technology: Awards technology cards and allows you to place markets in your capital city.
Exploration: Acquire territory tiles and place them on the map, gaining exploration bonuses. You'll be able to place farms in your city.
Science: Roll the science die and make progress on the rolled track. Unlock houses for your capital city.
Military: Conquer regions on the map, rolling the military dice and gaining a benefit. Armories will be added to your capital city.
Unlocking building along these tracks allows you not only to populate your capital city, but each building is covering up potential resources and victory points. When you take an income turn, you'll gain points and resources based on what is showing on your personal board. So, the more buildings you've placed, the more stuff you'll get.
As you conquer territory, you'll roll the military dice and get a benefit.
Each track works well with the type of scoring it unlocks. For instance, the more you move up the military track, the more armories you'll unlock and the more territories you'll control on the map. And some of those armories are covering up spaces that score you a point for each territory.
You will also score for developing your capital city. The capital city map is made up of a 9×9 grid, but some of the squares on each map are impassable. During an income turn, you'll score for each completed row and column. Each 3×3 section is a district and completing those rewards you an additional resource. As you unlock each income building, you'll want to keep this in mind as you place them into your city.
You can also fill your city with landmarks that are awarded for being the first civilization to reach a new tier of each progress track. These landmarks are represented by prepainted minis that really do give you more of a feeling of building something. The production on these are top-notch.
The game ends once all players have taken their fifth income turn. The player with the most points is the most advanced civilization and has won the game.
Every income turn you'll play a tapestry card, earn points, and get resources.
Game Experience:
Without a doubt, the civilizations in Tapestry will lead you down a different path every time you sit down to play the game. Some give you a more focused direction while others can be more flexible, but in either case, taking advantage of your unique ability will lead you down the path of prosperity.
Once you have that direction, you'll likely choose a track or two to focus on. It's not just the civilization that leads you down this choice but also what your opponents are doing, the tapestry cards you have available, and the territory tiles you explore. In my games so far, all roads seem viable. Games have been won going heavy into science and technology and not worrying about expanding your control over any additional territory. But taking over as much of the map as possible and gathering bonuses as you do it can pay off too.
Technologies can also give you additional benefits throughout the game.
The only strategy that doesn't seem terribly fruitful is an extremely balanced approach of going up every track. You'll likely make some progress on all of them but ending the game near the middle on all four is probably not going to work for you. Specialization is necessary. Adam Smith would be proud.
Turns in Tapestry are generally lightning quick. On an advance turn you really only have four options. Pick a track to move up, pay the resource, and get the benefit. But there is a lot packed into those decisions. You need to consider the resources you have available and what you want to do your next couple of turns. It's much more about the long-term goals for your civ than the short-term impact. Conquering territory is nice and all, but it doesn't really provide a ton of value until you find a way to clear more of the armories off your income mat so you can score all those points during the income turns.
There isn't much in the way of combat, although you can attempt to topple a territory controlled by another player. Their only potential defense is that a small number of the tapestry cards are "traps," which can be played in this scenario to cause the conquer to fail and grant you an additional resource. The would-be conqueror still gets most of the benefit of rolling the military dice from their conquer action though, so it's not overly punitive.
Controlling territories is one of many ways to earn points during income.
The reality here is that Tapestry is a cleverly themed euro. And a great one. You'll have to carefully manage your resources and your hand of tapestry cards. Gaining technologies to give you additional income buildings, points, or resources. Interaction with other players exists as you have small fights over territories, and you'll want to be the first up some tracks to earn landmarks. But you can form your strategy without having to worry too much about everyone else if you choose to.
As a "civilization" game, I think it's fair to say Tapestry doesn't come across like fans of the genre might expect. Personally, I abhor the desire gamers seem to have to make a game fit in an exact box—mechanically or thematically. But Stonemaier has put "A Civilization Game" right on the front of the box here and makes it worth digging into how much it fulfills that promise. The biggest concern I have in that regard is that as you progress on the tracks, invent technologies, and travel to space, the payoff isn't really huge.
As you approach the end of the track you get some better benefits, but they aren't always significantly better.
You discovered warships? Cool, conquer a territory. Yeah, that was the same thing you got when you figured out archery a few centuries ago, what of it? Remember when we floated a raft and explored a new tile? Now we have trains! So yeah, we explore a new tile. And space? The final frontier!? We've made it…have 4 points and a house. Mastering herbalism also gave us a house though. But … 4 points!
It isn't that there is no progression, but it's minor. It works very well within the game as having too big of a payoff on the ends of the tracks would really limit some of the strategic options. The benefits do get better, but only marginally so. If you are expecting complicated tech trees with abilities that ramp up considerably as you approach the modern age, you aren't going to find it here.
Also, of note: the game ends for each player after they take their fifth income turn. That won't necessarily be at the same time for everyone. In most of the games I've played, it's only left a player waiting 5-10 minutes after they are done for everyone else to wrap up. At the extreme though, it was nearly half an hour. This is probably abnormal but definitely possible and—especially because the player to end that early probably didn't do very well—feels pretty bad.
As you place income buildings, you'll uncover spaces on your player mat. Everything uncovered during an income turn will be activated.
Tapestry is a great civilization themed euro. Is it a "Civ" game? There will likely be lots of arguments over that question. But who cares? It's easy to teach, plays in 30 minutes or less per player, and is a ton of fun. The unique civilizations and the huge number of tapestry cards give you new direction every game and make for interesting experiences. There are several paths to victory, and I have enjoyed every play of Tapestry more than the play before it. That can't be said about many games today.
Final Score: 4.5 Stars – Easy to learn with lots of strategic depth. Unique civ powers make every game different.
• Civilization powers give vastly different asymmetric abilities to players.
• Rewards strategic use of resources and timing.
• Beautiful production with painted minis that make your capital city come alive.
Misses:
• Civilization theme is arguable, and progression feels minor throughout.
• Players will end at different times.

Thanks for the great review! I pre-ordered Tapestry as soon as I saw the SM Champions email link. I can't wait to get this one to the table.

Wonderful review! As one of the Lead Playtesters, I appreciate the thoughtful nature of your review and the time you clearly took to craft it. I will say that I found that the ramp-up of points proved incredibly powerful, which differed from your experience. I'll be curious to hear your thoughts after more plays.
Andrew Smith Sep 10, 2019 At 10:45 am
Appreciate the comments!
The points certainly do ramp up as all your actions kind of "add up" over time. The actions themselves are what I was a bit disappointed that they didn't get significantly more powerful!
Certainly enjoyed all my plays and will certainly continue to explore!

I played this for the first time this week with a friend. Neither of us had played, but we had watch Rodney Smith teach the game. We were up and running pretty quick with minor rules questions quickly resolved from the four page manual. I lost 108-132, but had a great time playing. We played it at a board game cafe, but I will definitely be getting this game as my wife will love the way it plays. Replay-ability seems really, really good. Great review!

Kans for Kate - An Arabian Show Dream
Twelve-year-old Kate Dobrotin and her trainer Anna Filleti of North Arabians had a unique idea to help accomplish her goals to attend shows with her Arabian horses.
Explaining where her love of Arabian horses started, Kate says, "About a year ago, I saw a Facebook advertisement that Anna had posted about horses for sale, and I convinced my mom to take me to check them out. We ended up purchasing our first two Arabians from North Arabians, and I have been riding them and Anna's horses since. The special Arabian horses that are in my life are "Blaze" or GG Blaze N Afire that we purchased from the Glasener's and "Lily" or Steel Cordilia that is owned by Anna's mom."
"When I asked Kate if she wanted to go to a show, she eagerly said yes," her trainer Anna shares. "We went to a local show here in Ramona to do some Walk/Trot with Lily, and she was hooked after she won one of her classes. Since then her knowledge of general horse care and her riding ability has grown, along with her passion. Kate has come such a long way in a short amount of time that I had her show my personal horse, Lapaz NA, at Region 7 this year. She was Regional Champion in the Sport Horse Under Saddle Hunter Type JTR and Reserve Champion in the Dressage Type JTR."
After her successful Regionals, Kate was eager to continue to show, but figuring out how to finance that showing prompted her to raise the bar, and her dedication to her dreams, even higher. "My goal was to be able to pay for the show in September that I planned on attending without having to ask my grandpa for money. It was going to cost $170 for me to show Lily and Dawn in some Sport Horse classes," she explains.
"Anna and I were discussing ways for me to achieve this and we came up with the idea of collecting redeemable recycling products from our friends and family. We posted flyers around town that said 'Kans for Kate,' and Anna made a post on Facebook to some of the local Ramona pages. We had tons of people that were willing to donate their recycling products to me. After the first trip to the Recycling Center, we came home with $155. I was so excited that we were only $15 shy of my goal!"
Anna is proud of Kate and her drive to achieve her dreams. "I think it's great that Kate is trying to help pay for her horse shows. I believe that when a kid learns the value of a dollar they appreciate the experience much more," she explains. "Horse showing is not cheap, and at twelve-years-old, Kate knows this. Her grandpa has funded her horse shows in the past, but when we started talking about the plans for the upcoming show season, I knew we were going to have to figure out some way to help offset some of the cost. Kate and I have been working really hard to collect recycling to try and cover the horse show in September, and we were able to do that. Kate was elated that she could tell her grandpa that he could save his money for the next show."
With her initial recycle goal almost met, Kate is excited to be able to join her friends and do what she loves without worrying about the cost. "I believe the best part about showing Arabians is being able to show them with my friends," she says. "Since starting my lessons with Anna I have made some new friends that are also lovers of Arabians, and we love taking lessons and going to horse shows together. Most of the time we are all showing our 'white Arabians,' and we like to match our outfits together."
Kate and her friends have big dreams, and Kate hope to continue her recycling in order to help her get there. "We all hope to be able to qualify for Youth Nationals and be able to experience it for the first time together, as a team," she explains. "I am going to continue to collect recycling products in the hope of being able to pay to show at Youth Nationals in 2020, and hopefully the other shows to get qualified for Youth Nationals."
Anna knows team spirit is common in her students. "Kate is always willing to help in any way she can and always does it with a smile on her face," she says. "It is really encouraging to see her and the other girls strive to better themselves and always support each other in the show ring and out of it."
In addition to her work as a trainer, Anna has gone above and beyond to inspire Kate and create options to make her dreams viable - a testament to her passion for her youth program at North Arabians.
"The program I have is small, only five girls, but that is enough for me at this time," she shares proudly. "I really enjoy taking them to shows around San Diego County and love to see the improvement from show to show. It's not always about winning, but having a good time and learning. They love to be together and love their Arabians, and for me that is what matters. In 2020 all my girls have their sights set on competing at Youth Nationals, and I am beyond excited to help them get there."
"Arabians are great family horses because they truly love being with people of all ages. Everyone at the little one day shows that sees these Arabians cannot believe how well behaved the horses are with the young kids. My horses love to be ambassadors and continue to prove people wrong about the stereotypes attributed to our breed. It's great knowing that I am helping create a love for Arabian horses for another generation of horsemen, just like my mother did for me when I was a kid."

Quite impressed by these architects and the concepts they've employed in the design.
"The vision for the Smart School project is to create a new type of school – a "School Park" – that unites architecture and landscape into a unique learning environment and gathering point for the local community. The design of the project is based on a both unifying and expanding concept that bridges between school complex, nature and modern society in the form a diverse, including and activating learning environment. The complex is organised as a permeable ring of buildings, which contain the main functions and are grouped around a central outdoor space. Each building and function expands towards the centre in the form of directly related outdoor area and together these areas form a diverse arena for experiential learning and pedagogical synergies. The very active and social spaces of this central campus are contrasted by a calmer and contemplative landscape of natural and agricultural areas outside of the ring, which allow the school to be partially self-sufficient and are included in teaching activities.

Ministry contemplates special entry for international MICE visitors
By TIN Media | MICE Published 1 year ago on 17 April 2021
The government is open to the possibility of opening special lanes to allow international business travelers to enter the country for meetings, incentives, conferences, and exhibitions (MICE).
Tourism, arts, and culture minister Nancy Shukri said that while such international events are still not allowed, the ministry is still working to ensure the country will be able to welcome travelers from the sector when border restrictions are loosened.
"So, special lanes are already being discussed. They are already there at the airport, so that's why we need to discuss further with immigration," she said.
"Once this (MICE travel) is allowed, we will be able to make use of the special lanes for our business delegates."
While international MICE events are still now allowed, the local sector reopened last month. In MCO areas, they could use 25% of a premises' capacity or a maximum of 250 people. MICE events in conditional MCO areas were subject to a 50% capacity while in recovery MCO areas, the restriction depended on the size of the premise.
Nancy was speaking at a press conference after the Malaysia Convention & Exhibition Bureau (MyCEB) launched its business events strategic marketing plan 2021-2030 at a hotel here.

ValueError: total size of new array must be unchanged.
What I really want to do is if the matrix is odd shaped then insert NaN for the missing values.  So if there was no November or December values in 2017 they would be NaN

Barcelona metro stations were closed, pickets blocked main roads and civil servants walked out on Tuesday in response to a strike called by pro-independence groups after hundreds were injured in a Spanish police crackdown on a banned independence referendum. As David Pollard reports, borrowing costs across the euro zone are also rising as a result of the crisis.
Catalonia protests - its local firemen on cordon duty. Their priority this time: to keep the political flames in check rather than real ones. While elsewhere they hold their own march too. After the violence that flared during its bid to hold an independence referendum, the region now caught in a day of demonstrations. Though these protesters do have jobs. A new point eight per cent rise in Spain's unemployment rate a reminder that 3.4 million people don't. (SOUNDBITE) (English) HEAD OF CORPORATE DEVELOPMENT, 7IM, JUSTIN URQUHART STEWART, SAYING: "Remember, unemployment is still at 17 percent overall. And the real damage caused by the euro which of course is youth unemployment is still incredibly high. If Catalonia does break away that's bad news for Spain." And (bad news) for the EU, which has called for talks between Madrid and Catalan leaders. Independence could potentially deprive Spain of a region that accounts for around a fifth of its economy. And threaten new uncertainties for its minority government. (SOUNDBITE) (English) HEAD OF CORPORATE DEVELOPMENT, 7IM, JUSTIN URQUHART STEWART, SAYING: "Spain's overall economy would have to adjust for such a major break away from it. Equally of course it wouldn't do Catalonia a great deal of good because its major market is actually the rest of Spain as well." That thought continued to play through Spanish stocks after their slide on Monday. Iberdrola among the biggest losers after markets reopened.... It and another Spanish utility, Red Electrica, downgraded by JPMorgan because of the political environment. While borrowing costs edged upwards. (SOUNDBITE) (English) NEIL WILSON, SENIOR MARKET ANALYST, ETX CAPITAL, SAYING: "There's lots of risks here. So far the markets are reacting pretty calmly. But I think if things get worse we could see the euro slide further." Though for the meantime, its losses have eased - as traders go into 'wait and see' mode. As have many locals caught out by the protests - hopeful of a break in the region's separatist gridlock.

Within the fourth one fourth from the Kansas Town Chiefs, Eli Manning fallen back again for any move, grown their feet as well as fallen towards the floor following finishing the actual move. He or she instantly snapped up their back heel. Manning ongoing for just one much more perform after which strolled from the area. A good MRI later on examined irritation associated with their plantar ligament. The actual plantar ligament is really a lengthy connective cells framework within the base from the feet. The actual cells is comparable within power as well as make up to some tendon. The actual plantar ligament begins in the back heel bone fragments as well as moves towards the golf ball from the feet, along with web-shaped rings increasing towards the within mid-foot and also the outdoors part of the feet. The actual plantar ligament features to aid the actual mid-foot. Manning had been identified as having plantar fasciitis (plan * TAR fash * ee * We * tis), ripping as well as irritation from the plantar ligament. This problem is usually a good excessive use damage that evolves because of repeated tension from the plantar ligament. Little microtears trigger irritation as well as deterioration from the ligament-type framework that can lead to additional ripping, irritation as well as discomfort. More than 2 zillion people have plantar fasciitis every year. The problem runs within intensity and may final for just two days or even may remain with regard to greater than a 12 months, disabling a lot of people with regard to actually lengthier intervals. The problem could be extremely unpleasant and may considerably reduce a chance to produce energy throughout the push-off stage associated with stride. For any quarterback, what this means is the lack of energy throughout the initiation from the move as well as discomfort whenever growing the actual feet. It had been documented which Manning experienced formerly lamented associated with back heel as well as mid-foot discomfort. He'd probably already been struggling with moderate plantar fasciitis. When the tendon offers split as well as swollen, even though and then a little level, this manages to lose it is power as well as gets much more vunerable to damage. Whenever Manning fallen back again for that move, he or she over-stretched their back again lower-leg. Whenever he or she grown their back again feet, he or she positioned this parallel in order to their lower-leg together with his pounds on your ball associated with their feet. The rear feet ought to be positioned much more verticle with respect towards the lower-leg with increased actually pounds submission within the whole feet. Whenever pounds is positioned on your ball from the feet and also the lower-leg is actually outstretched, this particular positioned extreme extend about the plantar ligament. In many problems, the actual ligament will be able to assistance this particular quantity of pressure, if the ligament is actually destabilized because of earlier damage, this gets vunerable to additional ripping. For many people, plantar fasciitis evolves due to repeated tension as well as there isn't 1 event or even distressing occasion that triggers the actual damage. The actual discomfort is usually razor-sharp at the end from the back heel from the initial step each morning as well as has a tendency to function by itself away following strolling. The actual discomfort might be heavy as well as boring, or even razor-sharp as well as stabbing through the rest from the day time. Actions for example heading down and up steps as well as hillsides, transporting items or even large products or even squatting may worsen this. The first remedies with regard to plantar fasciitis consist of relaxation as well as staying away from irritating actions mentionened above previously over. Throughout the very first fourteen days two times every day topping with regard to quarter-hour as well as switching in between the warm load up along with a chilly load up with regard to 5 min's every for any complete associated with half an hour may reduce the actual irritation. Putting on encouraging footwear as well as staying away from heading barefoot may considerably reduce the strain within the mid-foot. Extending the actual leg and also the plantar ligament may speed up recovery, this really is particularly useful prior to walking lower very first thing each morning. When the situation advances, evening splints, supports, steroid shots as well as bodily treatment methods for example ultrasound as well as iontophoresis might be started. Manning offers began along with traditional remedies and can possess their feet recorded to lessen tension with the mid-foot as well as assistance the actual plantar ligament.

Each from the second option 2 problems impact the actual metatarsal area from the ft. This really is a place which includes 5 lengthy bone fragments as well as numerous important joints, increasing in the ideas from the feet towards the tarsal area, close to the entrance from the ankle joint. Within golf ball associated with feet discomfort metatarsalgia, the actual impacted region is actually in between as well as at the rear of the very first as well as 2nd feet; the very first foot becoming the actual "big" foot.

Aramid Fiber-a Low-key Invisible King
Aramid fiber is no stranger to composite materials (here composite materials refer to resin-based fiber composite materials), because it is cost-effective, and it is destined not to be fully covered like glass fiber, nor is it as obvious as carbon fiber. Features and is widely used.
Aramid composite materials are widely used in general military industry, such as fighters, bulletproof armored vehicles, light tanks, bulletproof money transport vehicles, and bulletproof boards. During the Gulf War, aramid composite materials were used extensively on American and French aircraft. At the same time, in order to meet the needs of anti-terrorism, many military and police in developed countries have adopted a large number of para-aramid fibers in their bulletproof vests, bulletproof helmets, stab and cut-resistant clothing, EOD suits, and high-strength parachutes.
Aramid composite materials are also widely used in sports equipment, such as: preparing fishing rods, golf clubs, tennis rackets, bows and arrows, sledges and other products to increase the service life of these equipment.
Aramid fiber can also be used as a coated fabric for air supporting structures and inflatable tape products, such as rubber boats, life rafts, blimps, balloons, and special clothing. It can also be used in shipping, aerospace, rail transit and other fields.
01 Brief introduction of aramid fiber
The full name of aramid fiber is "aromatic polyamide fiber", which refers to the long-chain synthetic polyamide fiber in which more than 85% of the amide bond is directly connected to the benzene ring. The amide bond is connected to the aromatic ring or the derivative of the aromatic ring, which is flame retardant , High temperature resistance, high strength, high modulus, insulation and other outstanding properties. It is a new type of special polymer material. At present, there are two kinds of aramid on the market that have achieved wide commercial application and production, namely meta-aramid and para-aramid.
Meta-aramid has excellent thermal stability, flame retardancy, electrical insulation, chemical stability and radiation resistance. The full name of meta-aramid is "poly-m-phenylene isophthalamide" (MPIA) fiber, which is an organic polymer fiber synthesized from isophthaloyl chloride and m-phenylene diamine. Because the amide bond is connected to the No. 1 and No. 3 positions of the two benzene rings, it is also called Aramid 1313. Meta-aramid has long-term thermal stability, which is its most important feature. It can be used for a long time at a high temperature of 200 ℃ without aging, and has excellent dimensional stability. Meta-aramid is inherently flame-retardant, and its limiting oxygen index (LOI) is> 28%. It will not spontaneously combust or melt in the air, nor will it produce droplets, and will self-extinguish after leaving the flame. The electrical insulation of meta-aramid is excellent, and the insulation paper made of it can withstand breakdown voltage of up to 20kV/mm; meta-aramid has excellent corrosion resistance and radiation resistance. In addition, meta-aramid also has low rigidity, high elongation, and can be processed with conventional textile machinery.
Para-aramid has excellent properties such as high specific strength, high specific modulus, high temperature resistance and flame retardancy, and is known as the world's three major high-performance fibers together with carbon fiber and high-strength high-modulus polyethylene. The full name of para-aramid fiber is "poly-p-phenylene terephthalamide" (PPTA) fiber. It is an organic polymer fiber synthesized from terephthaloyl chloride and p-phenylenediamine. The amide bond is connected to two benzene rings. No. 1 and No. 4 positions, also known as Aramid 1414. The tensile strength of para-aramid is 6 times that of steel wire, 2 to 3 times that of glass fiber and high-strength nylon industrial yarn; the tensile modulus is 2 to 3 times that of steel wire and glass fiber, and 10 times that of high-strength nylon industrial yarn. ; Its density is only about 1/5 that of steel wire. Para-aramid has good impact resistance, corrosion resistance and fatigue resistance, and is referred to as "bulletproof fiber". The heat resistance of para-aramid is higher than that of meta-aramid. After hundreds of hours at a high temperature of 200°C, it can still maintain its original strength, and will not decompose or melt at a high temperature of 560°C. In terms of environmental protection, the stable and non-degradable properties of para-aramid fibers also determine the problem of difficult recycling and environmental impact in later stages.
02 History of Aramid Fiber
Aramid fiber was first developed by DuPont of the United States. DuPont developed a high-performance para-aramid under the trade name "Kevlar" in 1966, and began industrial production in 1971. In addition, the world's major manufacturers engaged in the production of para-aramid include Japan's Teijin Corporation, Russia's Heat Resistant Corporation, and South Korea's Kolon Corporation. Since the industrial production of aramid fiber in the late 1960s, aramid fiber has passed the transition stage from military strategic materials to civilian materials in the course of more than 40 years.
my country has started the research of aramid fiber during the "Sixth Five-Year Plan" period, but the key technology of industrialization has not been able to break through for a long time. The domestic demand for para-aramid mainly depends on imports. In recent years, with the continuous breakthrough of aramid technical barriers, the industrialization of para-aramid in my country has begun to flourish. At present, there are more than ten domestic enterprises in the industrialized production of para-aramid, including Sinochem Chenguang, Taihe New Materials, and Suzhou Zhaodat.
03 Market demand for aramid fiber
At present, the global demand for meta-aramid and para-aramid is 80,000 tons/year and 40,000 tons/year respectively. The production capacity is mainly concentrated in foreign companies such as DuPont in the United States and Teijin in Japan. The effective domestic production capacity of meta-aramid and para-aramid is 10,000 tons/year and 2,500 tons/year respectively. The domestic demand for para-aramid is more than 10,000 tons/year, and the import dependence is relatively high.
In 2017 and 2018, my country imported 3368 tons and 3392 tons of aramid fibers. With the broadening of downstream applications of aramid fibers, the high dependence of aramid fibers on imports will continue.
In summary, aramid fiber lags far behind foreign countries in terms of technology and output. It is not that the domestic market is not prosperous, but that it is extremely prosperous and therefore dependent on imports. From the perspective of market demand, aramid is definitely a fiber. The king of reinforcement materials, and the king of muffled fortune.

Did Hyuna Really Copy Hyori's Brand?
If you aren't one of the 14 million views on Hyuna's MV Bubble Pop!, then I really want to know how comfortable that rock is. Hyuna had to abruptly stop promotions for "Bubble Pop!" because of them, and had to move on to promoting her second single, Just Follow. Ever since, Hyuna's been closely followed and Bubble Pop!'s still fresh on the minds of many. Outside of the obvious "obscenity" controvery that surrounded the song, Hyuna's style concept has been hotly debated as unoriginal. Her accused muse and "inspiration"? Why, it's the princess Lee Hyori, of course.
Hyori's image and concept was a "street meets glamour" look. Lots of denim, simple t-shirts, and at times a sporty urban feel. Hyuna even has Hyori's (admittedly light) tan, something very few Kpop girls adopt due to the beauty ideals of soft, pale skin. Hyori (and Hyuna) definitely embraced the image, and kept the makeup relatively light or only enhanced her eyes. Jewelry was usually something dangly, shiny and trendy, and was very popular at the time. Her hair was kept long, flowing and surrounded her appealing facial features. Her clothes enhanced her legs and other "assets", yet kept her approachable and cool. Sometimes she dressed up a little or added more accessories, but her overall aura was a stylish, hip and urban glam one. No matter what she rocked, it was usually kept simple and her trademark was pretty obvious.
Watch her"10 Minutes" video and that was essentially her image for the majority of her debut. Hyori's also had many photoshoots and CVs using the same image, so it's pretty much ingrained in stone that when you see this look, it's undoubtedly Lee Hyori. First impressions are very powerful, after all.
Then came Bubble Pop!. Hyuna crashed the party with a similar street meets glamour look, complete with simple tops, sparkly, trendy jewelry and denim. Her high heels and red lipstick signified the glamour. Even her mannerisms were similar to old school Hyori's. She looked at the camera seductively while swinging her long hair, and her clothes also enhanced her assets. Watch a few of Hyori's old videos and then "Bubble Pop" right afterward. You can feel the same aura there, and even Hyuna's promotional pictures for Bubble Pop have the same style. As a fan of both artists, I will admit that it does seem like Hyuna's concept is eerily similar to Hyori's old one in many ways. However, it's just not enough to be a complete clone.
Hyuna's stylists could have definitely been influenced and inspired by Hyori. Hyuna rocks the concept just as well as Hyori does. Hey, 14 million views can't be wrong, right? Still, Hyuna brings her own charm to the table, and as similar as the two seem at first glance, there's a difference, and both remain unique. I have both "Bubble Pop!" and "U-Go-Girl" in my playlist, and in the end, that's all that counts. Don't let the controversy cloud your judgment and appreciate both artist's brands.

Opinion: This is why you should punch a Nazi today
By Noorhan Maamoon | October 24, 2017
Is it OK to punch a Nazi? Yes. The question of "is it acceptable to punch Nazis" also applies to white supremacists and members of the alt-right. The answer to that is also yes, it's OK to punch them too, and here's why:
After alt-right leader and white supremacist Richard Spencer was punched in the face by a member of the anti-fascist movement on the day of Donald Trump's inauguration, he said this to The New York Times: "I don't think I could go out to an inauguration event without bodyguards or a protest or a conference." Spencer added: "I am more worried about going out to dinner on an average Tuesday because these kind of people are roaming around."
I, for one, think those statements are the height of irony, especially coming from a man who has actively worked to make sure Jews, feminists and people of color feel isolated in their communities in the U.S. This man, with all his white privilege, feels unsafe going out into the world for fear of being attacked for his views? What about all the people who feel unsafe because they might be attacked by a member of Spencer's alt-right community for their race, religion or skin color?
It's important to note that Richard Spencer doesn't call himself a Nazi, but I'll call it like it is.
The issue of punching a Nazi has been made out to be about free speech, but doesn't free speech turn into hate speech when it incites clear and imminent danger? Alt-right publications such as Breitbart and Spencer's own National Policy Institute has cultivated a large white supremacist base that promotes otherizing non-white people.
In the months since Trump's inauguration, Jewish cemeteries have been desecrated in Missouri and Philadelphia. Some 63 incidents of mosques being vandalized, threatened or set on fire have been reported between January and July of 2017. Am I supposed to be skeptical of the alt-right's involvement in and encouragement of such incidents?
The world cannot be seen in binary terms, for the most part. Many things do not fall under black or white, but rather in the shadowy, grey area where things are murky and debate is necessary to discern the justifiable from that which is not. However, I was confused when discussing the "OK-ness" of punching a Nazi, many of my friends and colleagues argued violence is never acceptable. I say that's bullshit.
Violence for the sake of violence is inappropriate. However, oftentimes violence is the only way to stop your oppressor from treading on you. In those cases, violence is justified and even called-for. Additionally, punching a Nazi can be cathartic. If you've ever cheered while watching Indiana Jones punch a Nazi in Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, or if you smiled to yourself when the photo of Captain America punching Hitler popped up on your Twitter feed, then you know that hitting a smug Nazi face with your left hook could be a therapeutic form of stress-release.

To me, this is not an argument about the suppression of freedom of speech. Punching a Nazi is a way for those who have been oppressed to rise up against those who hurt them. It's time to let Nazis, white supremacists and the alt-right know that there is recourse for their actions.

These highlights do not include all the information needed to use KLOR-CON ® safely and effectively. See full prescribing information for KLOR-CON ®.
Klor-Con is indicated for the treatment and prophylaxis of hypokalemia with or without metabolic alkalosis, in patients for whom dietary management with potassium-rich foods or diuretic dose reduction is insufficient.
Take Klor-Con with meals and with a glass of water or other liquid. Do not take Klor-Con on an empty stomach because of its potential for gastric irritation [see Warnings and Precautions (5.1)] .
600 mg (8 mEq) are film-coated, round light blue tablets debossed with "KC 8".
750 mg (10 mEq) are film-coated, round yellow tablets debossed with "KC 10".
If severe vomiting, abdominal pain, distention, or gastrointestinal bleeding occurs, discontinue Klor-Con extended-release tablets and consider possibility of ulceration, obstruction or perforation.
Klor-Con extended-release tablets should not be taken on an empty stomach because of its potential for gastric irritation [see Dosage and Administration (2.1)] .
Use with triamterene or amiloride can produce severe hyperkalemia. Concomitant use is contraindicated [see Contraindications (4)] .
NSAIDS may produce potassium retention by reducing renal synthesis of prostaglandin E and impairing the renin-angiotensin system. Closely monitor potassium in patients on concomitant NSAIDs.
There are no human data related to use of Klor-Con during pregnancy, and animal reproduction studies have not been conducted. Potassium supplementation that does not lead to hyperkalemia is not expected to cause fetal harm.
The background risk for major birth defects and miscarriage in the indicated population is unknown. All pregnancies have a background risk of birth defect, loss, or other adverse outcomes. In the U.S. general population, the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2% to 4% and 15% to 20%, respectively.
Clinical studies of Klor-Con extended-release did not include sufficient numbers of subjects aged 65 and over to determine whether they respond differently from younger subjects. Other reported clinical experience has not identified differences in responses between the elderly and younger patients. In general, dose selection for an elderly patient should be cautious, usually starting at the low end of the dosing range, reflecting the greater frequency of decreased hepatic, renal or cardiac function, and of concomitant disease or other drug therapy.
Based on publish literature, the baseline corrected serum concentrations of potassium measured over 3 hours after administration in cirrhotic subjects who received an oral potassium load rose to approximately twice that of normal subjects who received the same load. Patients with cirrhosis should usually be started at the low end of the dosing range, and the serum potassium level should be monitored frequently [see Clinical Pharmacology (12.3)] .
Patients with renal impairment have reduced urinary excretion of potassium and are at substantially increased risk of hyperkalemia. Patients with impaired renal function, particularly if the patient is on RAAS inhibitors or NSAIDs, should usually be started at the low end of the dosing range because of the potential for development of hyperkalemia [see Drug Interactions (7.2, 7.3)] . The serum potassium level should be monitored frequently. Renal function should be assessed periodically.
The administration of oral potassium salts to persons with normal excretory mechanisms for potassium rarely causes serious hyperkalemia. However, if excretory mechanisms are impaired, potentially fatal hyperkalemia can result [see Contraindications and Warnings] .
It is important to recognize that hyperkalemia is usually asymptomatic and may be manifested only by an increased serum potassium concentration (6.5 mEq/L to 8.0 mEq/L) and characteristic electrocardiographic changes (peaking of T-waves, loss of P-wave, depression of S-T segment and prolongation of the QT interval). Late manifestations include muscle paralysis and cardiovascular collapse from cardiac arrest (9 to 12 mEq/L).
Intravenous administration of 300 mL/hr to 500 mL/hr of 10% dextrose solution containing 10 to 20 units of crystalline insulin per 1,000 mL.
Klor-Con ® extended-release tablets are a solid oral dosage form of potassium chloride. Each contains 600 mg or 750 mg of potassium chloride equivalent to 8 mEq or 10 mEq of potassium in a wax matrix tablet.
Klor-Con ® extended-release tablets are an electrolyte replenisher. The chemical name is potassium chloride, and the structural formula is KCl. Potassium chloride, USP is a white, granular powder or colorless crystals. It is odorless and has a saline taste. Its solutions are neutral to litmus. It is freely soluble in water and insoluble in alcohol.
The intracellular concentration of potassium is approximately 150 mEq to 160 mEq per liter. The normal adult plasma concentration is 3.5 mEq to 5 mEq per liter. An active ion transport system maintains this gradient across the plasma membrane.
The potassium chloride in Klor-Con extended-release is completely absorbed before it leaves the small intestine. The wax matrix is not absorbed and is excreted in the feces; in some instances the empty matrices may be noticeable in the stool. When the bioavailability of the potassium ion from the Klor-Con extended-release is compared to that of a true solution the extent of absorption is similar.
The extended-release properties of Klor-Con extended-release are demonstrated by the finding that a significant increase in time is required for renal excretion of the first 50% of the Klor-Con extended-release dose as compared to the solution.
Increased urinary potassium excretion is first observed 1 hour after administration of Klor-Con extended-release, reaches a peak at approximately 4 hours, and extends up to 8 hours.
Mean daily steady-state plasma levels of potassium following daily administration of Klor-Con extended-release tablets cannot be distinguished from those following administration of potassium chloride solution or from control plasma levels of potassium ion.
Klor-Con (potassium chloride, USP) contains 600 mg of potassium chloride (equivalent to 8 mEq of potassium). Film coated round Klor-Con is light blue debossed with "KC 8" extended- release tablets.
Bottles of 30 and 90 tablets.

DALLAS – As local and state water officials start planning how to spend a new multi-billion dollar water infrastructure fund approved by voters last week, a new report highlights projects in the 2012 State Water Plan which could further harm Texas rivers. Environment Texas Research and Policy Center used the report to call on water officials to maximize the investment in water conservation and avoid water projects that could significantly damage aquatic ecosystems.
The new Environment Texas Research and Policy Center report, Down to the Last Drop: Wasting Water Endangers Texas' Rivers, Fish and Wildlife, warns the state to avoid water projects harmful to Texas rivers, including the Trinity, Guadalupe and Sulphur rivers.
The Trinity River provides half of the freshwater in Galveston Bay, which supports an economically important oyster fishery. Adequate flows from the Trinity River are essential to protecting the bay, but the Houston region has proposed withdrawing more water from the river.
Water withdrawals from the Guadalupe River have led to the deaths of 23 birds in the world's only remaining flock of migrating whooping cranes. Despite flows that are already inadequate, the 2012 water plan includes proposals for more diversions from the river.
The Sulphur River is threatened by a proposal to create the Marvin Nichols Reservoir to meet growing demand for water from the Dallas-Fort Worth region. Building the reservoir would flood 25,000 acres of increasingly rare bottomland forest.
On November 5, Texas voters approved Proposition 6, which authorizes a new state water infrastructure fund backed with a $2 billion transfer from the state's rainy day fund. An accompanying law directs that at least 20 percent of the funding support water conservation projects and another 10 percent for rural or agricultural water conservation projects. As a result, billions will be available for farmers to upgrade irrigation equipment, to cities to fix leaking municipal water mains and to businesses to install drought resistant landscaping or water-efficient appliances.
Wasteful water use, coupled with drought, has lowered water levels in Texas' rivers. Half of measurements taken in August 2013 by the U.S. Geological Survey showed river water levels were less than 25 percent of normal and multiple measurements showed record-low water levels. Lower water levels hurt habitat, threaten wildlife, strain drinking water supplies, and disrupt outdoor recreational activities.
"Maintaining adequate freshwater inflows is crucial for Galveston Bay's health," said Bob Stokes, President of the Galveston Bay Foundation. "Oysters in Galveston Bay are particularly vulnerable to higher salinity levels that would come from the loss of freshwater inflows. The loss of oysters in Galveston Bay would provide not only a crushing ecosystem blow to the Bay, but also a crushing economic blow to the Bay area."
Wasteful water use occurs across Texas and throughout the economy, imperiling Texas' water supply. Agricultural, municipal and industrial water consumers withdraw more water from rivers and aquifers than is necessary to irrigate crops, maintain landscaping, and produce electricity. At least 500 billion gallons of water are wasted each year, enough to meet the municipal water needs of 9 million Texans.
Demand for water is expected to rise as Texas adds 21 million residents by 2060. The Texas Water Development Board anticipates that 51 percent of new water supplies will have to come from rivers and streams as the state's aquifers are increasingly depleted.

This Yorkism was totally an accident. It's one of those four-letter words I've been desperately trying to avoid. But since I said it the other day, I figure I might as well put it out there for public debate.
What could be so bad, you ask?
No, this is that ain't's hillbilly cousin once removed.
This "ain't" is another phrase thrown on to the end of a sentence, like quick or awhile or that old favorite, "once" (or wunst), which I'll post about later.
Rose, heaven help her, grew up one town up the road from me. She knew what I meant. And she didn't laugh too hard. But that's one I'd hoped not to fall into.
It mostly acts like the rhetorical "isn't it?" at the end of a sentence. The closest translation I can come up with is the old-fashioned phrase "And how!" Anyone familiar with that one, please comment so at least I know I'm not (or maybe I should say I ain't) alone.
