Exchange-Traded Funds – Cheap and Easy Way to Invest in Russian Stocks
Investors interested in buying Russian stocks, who were once limited to the big gun institutional investors, can now do it easy and cheap by the advent of exchange-traded funds (ETFs), The Moscow Times reported.
According to the report, in the old days, investors had to set up a brokerage account and order their broker to buy the shares for them. These accounts were complicated to create and expensive to use, as investors were charged for each transaction. The alternative is to invest into a fund, but most of these have a 2+20 deal where the fund manager takes a 2% commission management fee each year and keeps 20% of any profit the fund makes.
One of the biggest appeals of an ETF is that it charges a flat fee — typically less than 1% of the money under management — making it a far cheaper way to invest in somewhere like Russia.
Russia's stock market has returned about 30% this year, making it one of the best performing in the world.
"Investing in Russian equity is a rollercoaster ride, but when the market performs, it flies. So far, this has been one of the up years, with Russian stocks outperforming not only the other emerging markets but even the U.S. S&P500 index," The Moscow Times writes.
The benchmark MSCI Emerging Markets Index has gained 3.42% over 12 months, and the S&P500 5.27%. But Russia's RTS Index gained 36.57% during the same period. On top of that, investors earned an additional 9.29% if you count the generous dividend payments companies dish out to shareholders.
ETFs take a lot of the leg work out of buying shares as they come as a premade bundle of stocks — typically the biggest and most liquid bluechip names — designed to give the investor a nice balanced portfolio.
And ETFs are sold under various wrappers such as index trackers or growth names. ETFs are also themselves listed on exchanges, so they are easy to cash out of, as the fund itself can be sold at any time, The Moscow Times wrote.

After reviewing the videos on the web, I remembered to keep the top fabric separated and up high when sewing. It worked pretty well. I think I had an issue with the AccuQuilt fabric cutting. I just threw some scrap fabric on the form and I think the white fabric was thinner in some placed when folded. They came out different sizes. I know there is some talk of this issue but I'm hoping it was my mistake because they were pretty off.
The other issue I had was that I tried to piece using the curve master foot. Do not try this at home. What a mess. I was not able to sew a straight line at all. Thus, all my mismatched corners and seams. That's a big lesson learned for me. I'm still encouraged by the results so, I'll try more in the future.
Yesterday, we took a trip to Lancaster. I'm about 40 minutes away. Since we are both on vacation for this week and next, a day trip was planned for Shady Maple buffet and QVC outlet shopping. Can you believe that I was in Lancaster and did not buy a stitch of fabric? What's up with that? Well, it was a very very very rainy day. I was too lazy to walk in the rain so we skipped the quilt shops. Yep, save them for another day. However, we did get some great scenery photos. Here's a favorite from a distance.

Computational Approach To Explore the Link Between Serum Biomarkers & Clinical Outcomes in Psoriasis

BIOMED Master's Thesis Defense
A Computational Approach To Explore the Link Between Serum Biomarkers and Clinical Outcomes in Psoriasis
Aakankschit Nandkeolyar, Master's Candidate
Hasan Ayaz, PhD
Psoriasis is a chronic autoimmune skin disease that affects nearly 2% of the world's population. It is characterized by the formation of red plaques on the skin. Such plaques can cause irritation and pain to patients, not to mention the plaques are a major source of anxiety related to appearance for patients, making psoriasis a disease with high morbidity. While there are currently no cures for psoriasis, anti-inflammatory pharmaceuticals can be used to treat psoriasis by reducing the severity of the symptoms. The efficacy of treatments for psoriasis is measured by improvement in clinical outcomes, the most popular of which is Psoriasis Area Severity Index Score (PASI). These scores are provided by a dermatologist to quantify the severity of psoriasis in a patient. Quantitative Systems Pharmacology (QSP) is a new field in the area of computational disease modeling that allows for quantification and prediction of disease serum biomarkers in virtual patient models. Such prediction can potentially be correlated with clinical outcomes, such as PASI scores, to allow a scientist to predict clinical outcomes in virtual patients. The current study proposes the use of machine learning algorithms to bridge the gap between QSP simulation data for serum biomarkers and clinical outcome measures to predict PASI scores post-treatment to potentially reduce cost and time for clinical trials.
This work specifically aims to develop predictive models for clinical outcome (PASI scores) using serum biomarker data (generated by a QSP model of psoriasis built by GlaxoSmithKline) via an array of machine learning algorithms, which include regularized regression models, Support Vector Machines regression, and ensemble methods (kth-Nearest Neighbor, Random Forest, and Stochastic Gradient Boosting). To construct and test the models, a comprehensive dataset was compiled from across eight different clinical trials that accounted for a total of 2,131 patients, where these trials altogether accounted for three different treatment regimens that target different biomarkers in patients, which included anti-IL-17, anti-IL-23, and anti-TNF-alpha. The dataset contained both PASI scores and their respective serum biomarkers, and was developed via a systematic literature review. To compile the dataset, the average PASI scores across all patients in the clinical trial, recorded every week, were found in the literature and used as a sample PASI score. The serum biomarker data associated with the PASI scores were generated using an "average patient" simulation of the GlaxoSmithKline QSP model. The models were trained and tested using 6-fold cross-validation.
Results indicate that machine learning methods can be utilized to predict clinical outcomes. The best models were generated using a regularized regression algorithm and had a mean square error averaging 14.7 PASI score units (within PASI score range of 0-72), with an R-squared value of 0.75. This is the first attempt to develop a predictive model of psoriasis from serum biomarker data, generated using QSP simulation data to clinical state. The significance of this research is based on the novel approach for using computational methods to potentially reduce the cost and time of clinical trials, and aid in faster development of treatments for different diseases.

Royal Peeps: Alessia's Walk
Posted on January 14, 2011 by MusicMarauders
Words By J-man
"Alessia's Walk marks the begining of a new way of creating music, while thinking about life as a musical instrument," Cristian Basso told me.
"The inspiration for Alessia's Walk came from a couple places. Most importantly it came with the birth of my daughter, Alessia, who became the catylist for the emotion and creation of the music and lyrics. The album was being recorded in a time of my life when I also wanted to write and produce a record with a group of musicians that I had been performing with live and who I respect, both musicially and personally. Capturing this moment in time was intentional gesture of love for my family and friends," he stated.
From the first few funky notes, it's clear that there was a focus on production. The clean horns, bass and keys suck you right in, then enters Ty Taylor's R&B style vocals. From the get go, I think the vocal production/effects leave something to be desired. It's not to say that they aren't fitting to the music, it just takes the music in a very simple/conformed direction. Following a majority of the vocal lines were very impressive solo sections, that took the music to new heights. Only to cease for additional vocals, which in them self become repetitive and redundant. Songs like "Have No Doubt", "Apple Face (Blue Skies)" and "Supersonic" offer a brighter and more fitting Range/tone for Ty's vocal lines.
The instrumentation, specifically the solos and melodies are impressive and fitting to the genre of music. CR Gruver's Hammond and Wurlitzer parts were full and groovin'. His fills and general use of effects were very intuitive and tasteful. Cristian Bassos's bass playing is strong and funky. His ability to hold down the low end in conjunction with his tonal exploration, make him an extremely versatile bass player. The combination of Cristian's bass and Darren Pujalet's (Particle) drumming create an interesting dynamic, and a groove that is next to impossible not to move to.
Johnny Janowiak and Ron Haynes contribute some essential horn tracks. Together with Leo Nocentelli's rhythm guitar they mold that true funk sound. I thought that Cristian's lyrics were solid and meaningful. One can tell that "Alessia's Walk" came at a crucial point in his life, both personally and as a musician. However my favorite track on the album came without lyrics. "Caring For a Stranger" offered some of the most interesting and explored notation of the album as well as the beautifully unique vocals of Kandace Lindsey.
To say that one should immediately purchase "Alessia's Walk" would be a stretch. But, it offers some interesting ideas, excellent production and proof of the creativity and talent of Cristian Basso and the Royal Peeps. This being their first studio album, there is much room for growth, but the album itself is a great stepping stone and hopefully a preview of a little bit of what's to come from the Royal Peeps.

red and purple flowers - Flower baskets tend to be made of clay, but this will not signify that there are not stylish and attractive options out there there to use to spruce up the chambers in your residence or even to make outside look brand new. Growing blossoms or alternative plants interior of these baskets is not any brand new breakthrough or design trend, but it is good in keeping the clutter out of the dirt in the absolute minimum.
Flower pots are most frequently looked at as being that red color which they have been on time, however you will find more solutions compared to that. Over the last few years plastic pots have turned into an affordable and non-breakable alternative, and painted clay pots are getting to be popular also.
Everyone likes just a small break of gap from your norm. While plastic or coloured flower pots aren't likely to create your whole room or home seem brand new, they are a great accent in many houses and could become a tiny bit of you're employing large ones for plants that are large, or even simply going to keep plenty of vegetation inside them. Many of those which you find today are made to be more decorative because of all these specific functions, even though those smaller ones may have this type of large impact.
The more compact varieties which are plan are found at any given massive department store which includes a gardening section. These usually vary within the two to seven dollar array, depending on the specific size and the store. The decorative varieties are most often found at craft outlets and stores which focus on gardening equipment. The purchase price for those pots are often at twice that of the fundamental styles - this is particularly true for anyone that are quite extravagant. The huge and very detailed pots could be thirty dollars or more.
The entire point of the pots is to get a container to securely hold the plant and also the dirt, also has have a little water reservoir in the floor. A number of the simple plastic pots will have a little plate at the bottom that is attached or separate, and also this is sold with all an bud . On occasion the clay amount will soon be sold individually by the reservoir plate. The big and decorative styles often possess the reservoir built into the base of the pot, which makes it some thing that doesn't need to be concerned about.
Expanding your favorite crops and flowers in a bud would be somewhat different from accomplishing so directly inside the soil, however it's the only real option for climbing inside. Flower containers come in a whole selection of fashions and materials, and choosing the right type that you personally will come down to whether or not you would like to spend alot or have a pot a part of the plant demonstration.

A friend introduced me to Kim about 8 years ago when she was training at a well-known body building gym. He and his friends often competed in competitions and spoke very highly of her.
After several years of working long hours in the city I was found myself very unfit and extremely out of shape.
I was quite hesitant at first as I thought she didn't cater for someone with little or no gym experience . I've been training with Kim for almost 3 years now and haven't looked back, I believe she is one of the most experienced, capable & committed Personal Trainers around. I started training once a week as part of a small group session, I really enjoyed the variety and challenge she put into the group sessions and then took on full time personal one-on-one sessions.
Kim is very focused on helping me achieve my goals and makes every session challenging and somehow enjoyable. My fitness has vastly increased and I've seen huge improvements in my ability to complete core exercises, lift progressively heavier weights & generally push myself harder throughout each session, there has also been a monumental change in my physic. I find I actually look forward to my workouts. She ensures that my technique is always correct to avoid any injuries. She is extremely reliable & punctual – always set up and ready to start training ahead of time, with an exercise routine planned.
As far as nutrition guidelines, Kim's detailed approach of caloric intake, foods to avoid and maximize, meal plans and supplements is incredibly detailed and accurate.
I thoroughly enjoy working out and would recommend Kim to anyone looking for a dedicated Personal Trainer whatever your targets maybe.

D. II.2.j.i. Ukraine, Euromaidan Rebellion and Aftermath, 2013-2014
Volume One -> D. Resisting Authoritarianism in Post-Communist and Post-Soviet Regimes -> D. II. 'Electoral Revolutions' and 'Critical Elections' in Post-Communist States -> D. II.2. 'Electoral Revolutions' (and 'Critical Elections') in Individual Countries -> D. II.2.j. Ukraine 2004-2005 -> D. II.2.j.i. Ukraine, Euromaidan Rebellion and Aftermath, 2013-2014
EnglishFrenchGermanSpanish
The 'Euromaidan' rebellion began on 21 November 2013 and ended on 21/22 February 2014, when President Yanukovytch fled from Kiev (allegedly taking $32 billion with him). It was not, as the 'Orange Revolution' had been, a challenge to the outcome of an election achieved by electoral malpractice, but began as a reaction against Yanukovytch's sudden decision to suspend negotiations on a political and trade Association Agreement with the EU. This appeared to be a decisive turn towqards Putin's Russia, which was putting pressure on other former Soviet states to renounce ties with the EU. The initial demonstrators looked at the the EU as a symbol of freedom and democracy, and called for Ukraine to sign the EU Association Agreement. Later, the gorwing movement also attacked the spectacular corruption of Yanukovytch's Presidency since 2010, and demanded respect for human rights and a return to the Constitution as amended in 2004, which limited presidential powers and gave greater powers to Parliament, including the appointment of the Prime Minister.
Yanukovytch had been seen as both authoritarian and pro-Russian by the activists in 2004, who forced him to accept the election of the more liberal Yushenko. But, in the following years, Yanukovytch (who had always had a significant support base, especially in Eastern Ukraine) made an electoral come back, first as Prime Minister and then again as President in 2010. The conduct of the 2010 election (unlike in 2004) was not seriously criticised. But in office Yanukovytch tried to discredit a former leader of the Orange Revolution, also a former Prime Minister and his rival in the 2010 election, Yulia Timoshenko. After she was charged in May 2011 with exceeding her authority in signing a 2009 gas agreement with Russia (she used the trial to ridicule the prosecution), Timoshenko was arrested in August 2011 for 'contempt of court', and remained in prison until 21 February 2014, when Parliament voted her release. Yanukovytch also put pressure on the Constitutional Court , which in 2010 declared tje 2004 Amendments unconstitutional and restored the 1996 Constitution, which entrenched his position. There were geuine constitutional issues related to the hasty 2004 Amendments, but in both 2004 and 2010 political requirements dominated.
The 'Orange Revolution' was a disciplined nonviolent movement against electoral corruption and authoritarianism, which was peacefully resolved, although it did not lead to fundamental systematic chenge. It also had a geopolitical dimension (some left wing commentators stressed the role of Western organisations and funding), but did not result in a decisive swing by Ukraine towards the West. Euromaidan, on the other hand, although it developed into an impressive self-organised and nonviolent protest in November and December 2013, erupted into a more violent confrontation in the later stages from 19 January until 23 February 2014. The Euromiadan movement met with serious violence from government security forces, mincluding covert attacks on supporters by special police and unofficial governement-funded mercenary agents, the 'titushki'. There were brutal beatings of demonstartors, and at the end snipers shot into the crowd. By 23 February 2014, 112 protesters were dead, over 600 injured and another 200 were still classed as missing in March 2014. An estimated 17 police mebers died in the fighting in the last three days, and nearly 200 were injured. Euromaidan was also much more revolutionary in its outcome, and threw Crimea and Eastern Ukraine into a geopolitical crisis.
Evolution of events
The Euromaidan protests began with a few hundred students and middle class demonstrators, but grew rapidly into rallies of around 100,000 and a tent occupation of the Maidan, Kiev's Independence Square. It also spread to other cities such as Lviv. The government escalated confrontation on 30 November, when it sent in the Berkut special police force who brutally attacked the few hundred protesters occupying the square overnight. In response an estimated 700,000 people rallied in Kiev and thousands more elsewhere. Groups, probably of agents provocateurs, fought with the police, but did not manage to discredit the main demonstration. When the government sent in Berkut again to clear the square at 1am on 11 December (joining shields and pushing demonstrators back), the protesters resisted with the mass of their bodies and began to set up barricades, but did not retaliate with violence. There were weekly Sunday rallies: on 29 December a Manifesto of the Maidan was put to the crowd, which included calls to disband the Berkut special force, dismiss legal charges against protesters, free all political prisoners, and for the resignation of the Interior Minister and others responsible for security force violence. In late December a new organization, 'Auto Maidan', used their cars to transport and provision the protesters, patrol the streets and, at times, block security forces. During January the regime stepped up covert violence against demonstrators, including the drivers of Auto Maidan, whilst the opposition developed new tactics: a widespread economic boycott of companies owned by prominent regime members, and setting up of neighbourhood watch groups.
Yanukovytch's public response to the protests was to announce on 17 December 2013 an agreement with President Putin that involved Russia cutting the price of natural gas supplies by a third and buying up many Ukrainian bonds, thus both indicating the economic gains from ties with Russia and rejection of the EU. Unable to quell the protests, Yanukovytch prompted Parliament (where he had a majority) to pass a stringent anti-protest legislation on 16 January 2014. In response there were further mass demonstrations and militant protests in many other parts of Ukraine, including seizures of government buildings. An impromptu march on Parliament from the Maidan after a rally on 19 January 2014 precipitated into serious fights between protesters and police.
In the final phase of the movement there was an escalation both in the violence used against protesters (including the wounded in hospital) and in the militancy of protest. Key buildings in Kiev and other cities were seized - often by the direct action group Common Cause, which was trying to focus attention on opposing the regime itself. There was also a turn towards greater willingness by some protesters to use violence. In the four days of confrontation from 19 January protesters threw stones and molotov cocktails, and there were reports of home-made weapons such as slings and ad hoc rocket launchers. During the final days of 18-23 February guns were also in evidence. Common Cause had authorized members with military training to shoot if the government did so first (according to Oleksander Danylyuk in an interview with Andrew Wilson). Police stations were occupied in Lviv, which led to over 1,000 guns going missing (it was not clear who acquired them), and the Right Sector advertised their possession of arms on stage at the Maidan on 21 February. But the great majority of protesters were not armed.
The Yanukovytch government adopted a dual strategy in the final phase. It negotiated with leaders of the protesters and offered apparent concessions, for example on freeing prisoners if occupations of buildings ended, and on a possible new Constitution (although Yanukovytch refused to reinstate the 2004 constitution as the protesters were demanding). His party in Parliament joined with the opposition on 28 January to repeal most of the laws against protest recently passed, and the Prime Minister resigned. But the government was also making preparations to crush the rebellion by force. On 18 February there were violent confrontations between protesters and regime forces in the streets and security forces tried unsuccessfully to clear the Maidan. On 20 February riot police again tried to clear the square while snipers on high buildings shot and killed demonstrators. The regime was apparently planning to use much greater military force on 21 February, but the government was losing its parliamentary majority, as members of Yanukovytch's Party went over to the opposition, and late on 20 February parliament voted for security forces to leave Kiev. There were also military defections in the final days, both at the top and in the ranks - many summoned to Kiev stayed in their barracks. Activists reportedly also blocked both railway lines and roads carrying troops.
The Interior Minister and other top officials left the country on 20 February, just ahead of Yanukovytch. An interim coalition government was created - Parliament endorsed an ally of Yulia Timoshenko as a temporary president on 23 February and soon after accepted a new Prime Minister. The interim coalition was committed to holding new presidential elections in May. On 25 May 2014 Poro Poroshenko, a wealthy businessman who had supported the Orange Revolution and become prominent during the Maidan protests, was elected as the new President.
Important and Debatable Issues
Interpretations of both Euromaidan and the subsequent developments vary with different ideological perspectives. One especially sensitive issue is the role of the far right in the protests. For brief analysis of the different rightist groups see Wilson (2014, pp. 70-72), and Ischenko (2014, pp. 5-6 & 8), both listed below. It is generally agreed that far right groups (though in a minority) were quite prominent in the square and in the movement across the country in the later stages, but their impact on events is less clear. Their role was highlighted by the Russian media. The far-right did have some influence in the temporary coalition government, although the leading role was played by Timoshenko's Party. For example, the far right Party Svoboda (founded in 1991), which first gained representation in Parliament in 2012, held four seats in the cabinet.
A second source of confusion concerns who started the shooting in the Maidan on 20 February, when snipers fired at and killed demonstrators. Protest leaders continued to blame the security services and previous government, and it was also claimed that Russian security forces were involved. But there were rumours too of a third force trying to provoke trouble, and accusations against protesters. A leaked telephone call of 4 March 2014 between the Estonian Foreign Minister and the EU foreign affairs representative, Catherine Ashton, revealed that a doctor in Kiev had suggested that snipers shooting both protesters and policemen came from the opposition (MacAskill, Ewen, 'Ukraine Crisis: Bugged Call Reveals Conspiracy Theory about Kiev Snipers', Guardian (5 March 2014). A BBC documentary a year later interviewed a man who claimed he was a protester in the square, was given a gun, and began to shoot at policemen, though he said he was trying to force them back, not to kill them. The report also noted conflicting evidence from various groups involved (Gatehouse, Gabriel, 'The Untold Story of the Maidan Massacre', BBC News Magazine, 12 February 2014: http://www.bbc.co.uk).
A third question is how to assess the formal agreement reached in the evening on 21 February by three parliamentary opposition leaders with Yanukovytch (brokered by the EU foreign ministers from France, Germany and Poland) in the context of subsequent developments. The agreement was endorsed by Russia. It was accepted (under pressure from the Polish Foreign Minister) by the Maidan Council, which included many politicians, by 34 votes to 2. Under this compromise Yanukovytch would (among other concessions to demands of protesters) reinstate the 2004 Constitution immediately, but could remain in office until new elections to be held by December 2014 (three months ahead of the already scheduled elections in March 2015). Parliament voted unanimously that evening to reinstate the 2004 Constitution and to remove the Minister of the Interior. The protesters in the square had been radicalized further by the violence used against them in the preceding days, and there was booing when the terms were read out. There was also obvious support for a much reported speech of passionate rejection by a 26-year old man, who called for seizure for government buildings in Kiev unless Yanukovytch resigned by 10 am the next day. But there was no formal vote in the square on the terms of the agreement.
Yanukovytch, whose household had been recorded by security cameras packing up for several days, left very early on 22 February for Kharkov in Eastern Ukraine (perhaps to try to rally support), and then travelled on to Russia, where he was treated as the legitimate president of Ukraine. The Kiev Parliament voted by a majority on 22 February to remove him from the presidency, but did not follow the more prolonged constitutional procedure for impeachment, and the reported majority of 328 out of 450 fell slightly short of the constitutionally required three quarters. Moscow has continued to stress the legitimacy of the 21 February internationally endorsed agreement and accused the subsequent Ukrainian government of breaching it. Western states have backed the new government in Kiev.
A week after Yanukovytch and other senior government members fled, armed groups seized the Crimean Parliament and set up a pro-Russian 'government' in the Crimea. This led to Russian military annexation, given a semblance of legitimacy by a hasty referendum. Uprisings in other parts of eastern Ukraine against Kiev (interpretation of these is also disputed) led to a state of war between the new government and breakaway areas such as Donetsk, and threatened a revival of serious conflict between Russia and the West. As a result it is now difficult to assess Euromaidan without taking account of the immediate aftermath. Some of the references listed below cover both, although others focus on the Euromaidan movement.

An interesting post in The Diplomat today (12 May 2014). That's not uncommon, btw. The title of the post resonates with something I've been thinking about: "Africa and China's Values Deficit".
Chinese entrepreneurs and diplomats in Africa can make a powerful case for how their investments and trade are lifting people from poverty and making a difference to people's lives in some of the poorest places in the world. We have to appreciate and recognize the truth in this. But what sort of lifestyles and values will people have after economic development has made them wealthier? On this topic, the vision becomes blurred. Just like in China itself, the vision of the Chinese Party state of what constitutes a good life, beyond being immersed in material goods, is at best vague, at worst non-existent. This makes one suspect that there might be no real vision.
This gives me some more to think about, resonant with some earlier initial musings. I find it expected that the Chinese avoid the Western indulgence of "showing the way to a better life", but it's still a little unnerving.


As if we needed further proof of Serena Williams' badassery, ABC News has uncovered footage of her heroic chase down of her cellphone thief.
Williams described the incident on her Facebook Wednesday, explaining she was eating dinner when a man awkwardly picked up her phone and left the restaurant.
Instead of letting the thief go or asking her dinner partner for help (Is that rumored boyfriend Alexis Ohanian?), Williams describes how she sprinted out of the restaurant in pursuit of the man.
ABC News' video shows the tennis champ dodging customers and running out the door before confronting the man and retrieving her phone.
This man should just consider himself lucky there were no tennis rackets around.

It's Your Health
Safety of Wi-Fi Equipment

Wi-Fi Health Canada Video
Wi-Fi equipment
Health risks of Wi-Fi
Minimizing your risk
The Government of Canada's role
Wi-Fi equipment is being installed in many public places across Canada including schools, offices, libraries, shopping venues and coffee shops. Some people are concerned that radiation from Wi-Fi equipment could cause health problems and that children may be at particular risk in school environments.
Wi-Fi is a technology that allows devices such as home and portable computers, digital audio players and video game consoles to communicate data wirelessly. It is often used to link home computers to the internet. Wi-Fi is the second most common form of wireless technology, next to cell phones and cell phone towers. Like other commonly used household products (cordless phones, Bluetooth devices, and remote controls for garage door openers), Wi-Fi equipment emits radiofrequency fields.
The RF energy given off by Wi-Fi is a type of non-ionizing radiation. Unlike ionizing radiation (as emitted by X-ray machines), RF energy from Wi-Fi equipment and other wireless devices cannot break chemical bonds. While some of the RF energy emitted by Wi-Fi is absorbed in your body, the amount largely depends on how close your body is to a Wi-Fi enabled device and the strength of the signal. Unlike cellular phones where the transmitter is in close proximity to the head and much of the RF energy that is absorbed is deposited in a highly localized area, RF energy from Wi-Fi devices is typically transmitted at a much greater distance from the human body. This results in very low average RF energy absorption levels in all parts of the body, much like exposure to AM/FM radio signals.
In 2011, the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) classified RF energy as "possibly carcinogenic to humans". The IARC classification of RF energy reflects the fact that some limited evidence exists that RF energy might be a risk factor for cancer. However, the vast majority of scientific research to date does not support a link between RF energy exposure and human cancers. At present, the evidence of a possible link between RF energy exposure and cancer risk is far from conclusive and more research is needed to clarify this "possible" link. Health Canada is in agreement with both the World Health Organization and IARC that additional research in this area is warranted.
As long as RF energy levels remain below Health Canada's RF safety guidelines, current scientific evidence supports the assertion that RF energy emissions from Wi-Fi devices are not harmful. Health Canada's conclusions are consistent with the findings of other international bodies and regulators, including the World Health Organization, the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection, the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers and the U.K. Health Protection Agency.
RF energy exposure from Wi-Fi equipment in all areas accessible to the general public are required to meet Health Canada's safety guidelines. The limits specified in the guidelines are far below the threshold for adverse health effects and are based on an ongoing review of thousands of published scientific studies on the health impacts of RF energy. The public exposure limits apply to everyone, including children, and allow for continuous, 24/7 exposure.
Health Canada's position is that no precautionary measures are needed, since RF energy exposure levels from Wi-Fi are typically well below Canadian and international safety limits. As with any product, Wi-Fi devices should be operated in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.
Health Canada's role is to protect the health of Canadians, so it is the Department's responsibility to research and investigate any possible health effects associated with exposure to RF energy, such as that coming from Wi-Fi equipment. Health Canada has developed guidelines for safe human exposure to RF energy (Safety Code 6). It is one of a series of codes that specify the requirements for the safe use of radiation-emitting devices operating in the frequency range from 3 kilohertz (kHz) to 300 gigahertz (GHz). Wi-Fi operates in the 2.4 and 5.8 GHz frequency range.
Industry Canada, the federal regulator responsible for the approval of RF communications equipment and performing compliance assessments, has chosen Health Canada's RF guidelinesas its exposure standard. As long as exposures respect these guidelines, Health Canada has determined that there is no scientific reason to consider Wi-Fi equipment dangerous to the public.

Which?, a British consumer protection group, is set to ask the U.K. Office of Fair Trading to look into credit and debit card surcharges it claims several European low-cost airline carriers have illegally forced on their customers who pay online for air fares and other services.
Which? accuses Ryanair, Flybe Group Plc, easyJet and other low-cost airlines of levying fees on online purchases that are far in excess of what the airlines themselves are charged by their banks for processing these payments.
According to the consumer group, a debit card payment is processed at a cost for the airline of no more than 20p ($0.32) per transaction, while the equivalent cost for credit card payments is no more than 2 percent of the transaction amount. Which? claims that airlines typically charge card-paying customers a fixed amount that far exceeds their cost.
The consumer watch dog gives an example of a family of four that books a flight with one of the accused offenders. If paying by a card, the family would incur a surcharge of ?ú40 ($64) by Ryanair, ?ú38 ($61) by Flybe and ?ú5.50 ($9) by easyJet.
Airlines are by far the biggest offenders, the watchdog claims, but far from alone. It also accused local authorities, real estate agents, cinemas and others of the same offense.
Are U.S. Regulators Paying Attention?
The airlines and other businesses named in the Which? report are all angrily denying any wrongdoing and the case is unlikely to be settled any time soon, but the case is quite relevant to the debate currently under way in the U.S. over limiting debit card interchange fees.
As we have reported in several articles on this blog, in the U.S. the Federal Reserve has proposed a limit on debit card interchange fees that would reduce the cost for merchants by about 70 percent. The proponents of the fee cap have claimed all along that ultimately consumers will be the ones who will benefit the most from a fee limit, as at least some of the merchants' savings will translate into lower prices.
If the British experience is anything to go by, however, we should have plenty of reasons to be skeptical about this claim. Full disclosure, I am not at all familiar with the U.K. interchange fee model. Still, if the figures released by Which? are correct and a debit card transaction costs U.K. merchants 20p, this would mean that the British currently have in place a debit interchange structure very much like the one we will have in April, if the Fed has its way. Yet, this hasn't prevented airlines, retailers and even local governments from charging consumers way more than what their own processing costs would have been, even under current U.S. rules.
I hope that the people charged with crafting the new rules on debit interchange fees in the U.S. will take into consideration the European experience. If their goal really is to secure some savings for American consumers, it seems evident that a cap on debit fees by itself is unlikely to produce the desired effect. The only certainty is that retailers will benefit from reduced processing costs and no one could force them to pass the savings on to their customers. In fact, evidently regulators need to ensure that retailers, not banks, charge reasonable processing fees.


I have always been fascinated by photographs that stunningly capture the beauty on Earth. Be it nature, people, or animals, I love to see a moment captured. Looking at them, I felt like capturing similar ones myself. I was looking at a way to start exploring my interest. This introduced me to mobile photography.
In today's world of smartphones with powerful cameras, people need not rely on expensive DSLRs and it's expensive accessories to take good pictures. There are world famous mobile photographers that capture mesmerizing photographs of people and surroundings. I wanted to know how they are able to achieve that with their phones.
This course has been produced by a private firm called Amlab in collaboration with a well-known mobile photographer from Ukraine, Sergei Sarakhanov. He is known for portrait and nature mobile photography around the globe.
The first thing I need to put forth is that this is not a complete beginner's course. It does not teach the basics of photography like exposure, ISO, shutter speeds, etc. The course itself very different from the traditional way concepts are structured for teaching.
The entirety of this course is based on a road trip taken by the film crew and the instructor. It explores various locations, lightings, and scenarios that cover a variety of concepts in mobile photography. The instructor shares every little detail on what he is looking for to take the perfect shot. He takes the students through the complete journey of identifying objects, observing the light, and much more.
His reasoning behind the settings used to take photographs is very clear and easy to replicate. Concepts such as exposure settings, symmetry, the light falling on the subject are some of the topics that are emphasized multiple times to make sure the students understand its importance.
I loved the way he explains the process behind taking photographs. But the thing that I loved the most was the way in which he decides if a photograph is good or bad.
When we take photographs, there are many things that we tend to ignore that prevents us from taking photographs that are beautiful. We are unaware of some of the tricks that we can employ in mobile photography that brings in an element of uniqueness in our photographs. For example, when we visit tourist places, most of the time, it is very crowded and we aren't able to take good pictures with an iconic monument in the background. Through this course, I realized that using motion blur, I would be able to remove most traces of people in the background and take good pictures.
This is just one of the examples, but there are numerous such tricks that instantly makes you a better photographer than most of the smartphone users.
This is a complete course on mobile photography. The reason I say this is because this course not only covers the most important topics on mobile photography, it also delves into the procedure of post-processing. The instructor takes in numerous examples and explains how they can be processed to make them look much better.
He explains the various smartphone apps that we can use to post-process the image and get stunning results. This post-processing includes things that teach us how to rectify few mistakes that are committed while taking the photographs. So, not only did this course teach me great concepts in an amazing way, it provided me with a set of tools that will help me transform my image and make it look better.
You can head over to the course section of Mobile Photography: beautiful educational story to view the various topics covered and look at other student's review of this course.
This is an amazing mobile photography course out there. I have learned a lot from it and I am able to capture some good images. After taking this course, I have started to take many pictures, processing them and trying to take better photographs. I have added a gallery below to share some of the images that I have captured. I hope you like it!
We've found it by accident and it's so pleasant to read your kind words.
Hi Alex, it's my pleasure. The course helped me a lot to learn a lot of new things about mobile photography. I like the course a lot as I can watch it again and make sure I grasp the techniques and tricks.

Weston Neighbourhood Guide
Weston is a neighbourhood in the City of Toronto that lies in the northwest end of the city. It is north of Eglinton Avenue, east of the Humber River, south of Highway 401 and west of Jane Street. The downtown core of Weston is on Weston Road, just north of Lawrence Avenue and features many small businesses in addition to services. Weston was integrated as a village in the 1800s and was absorbed into the Borough of York in the late 1960s. York in turn was amalgamated into Toronto in 1998.
Real estate in Weston is charming since it still looks and feels like a small Ontario town rather than a big city community. This may be because the Humber River and the Railway are still significant landmarks in this neighbourhood.
Weston's profuse civic pride is obvious along Weston Road, which acts as the main thoroughfare in the area. Large green and gold road signs on Weston Road greet visitors to this neighbourhood as Weston Road is also the parade route for the yearly Weston Santa Clause Parade every December.
With many small parks throughout Weston, the most extraordinary is Cruickshank Park in the Humber River valley. This green space has lots of mature trees as well as paved bicycle paths dotted with large weeping willow trees.
The nearby Weston Lions Park is home to football, rugby union, soccer, tennis, and baseball facilities in addition to an ice rink, swimming pool, basketball court and skate-park.
Homes for sale in Weston may include some from the large collection of Victorian styles which date back to the mid to late 1800s. These Victorian homes in addition to early 1900 Edwardian style buildings are situated south of Church Street and the Humber Memorial Church Hospital.
The north enclaves of Weston around Pelmo Park and Fairglen Crescent, were not included in Old Weston. These subdivisions were developed between the late 1940s and the early 1960s and contain mainly of Tudor and ranch-style bungalows sprinkled in with back and side-split structures.
The apartment complexes that dot Weston Road were developed in the late 1950s and early 1960s. A majority of these rental apartment buildings are on the west side of Weston Road and offer great views of the Humber River Valley. Weston's renewed status has also resulted in the recent addition of many new housing plans within this Toronto area.
Weston's history goes back to the 1790s when it was a small farmland known merely as "The Humber." Weston's premier settlers were mill owners who were lured into this area by its rich timber resources and the potential of water-power of the Humber River.
The Weston name is linked to the Wadsworth brothers who immigrated to this area in 1828 and bought a local flour mill and general store. They renamed this community Weston after their familial home in England.
Weston's early expansion took place on both sides of the Humber River, though in 1850, a terrible flood demolished the west bank settlement. In 1856, the Grand Trunk Railway began servicing to this area and the Toronto Grey and Bruce Railway started in 1869. The railway and related industry brought great affluence to Weston.
This community first incorporated as a village in 1881 and then as a town in 1915. Weston stayed an independent town until 1967 when it amalgamated with the former Borough of York, which is 1998 amalgamated with the City of Toronto.
MLS listings might mention that most errands can be accomplished on foot in Weston, however public transit is also available.
The buses on Weston Road and Jane Street link directly to stations on the Bloor-Danforth subway line. Bus service on Lawrence Avenue shuttles passengers to the Lawrence subway station on the Yonge-University-Spadina subway line. Weston also has its own Go Train station situated on Lawrence Avenue West at Weston Road.
Weston Road and Jane Street offer motorists with instant access to Highways 400 and 401. These routes also link commuters to major arterial roadways such as Eglinton Avenue that head towards downtown Toronto.
Weston real estate agents can lead potential homebuyers to local amenities and shopping opportunities in the area. For example, there are about 309 restaurants, bars and coffee shops in the community and residents or visitors alike can walk to an average of 9 restaurants, bars and coffee shops in 5 minutes.
Weston Road acts as the main street in this neighbourhood full of everything from car dealerships to fast food restaurants as well as small retail shops. The Crossroads Centre on Weston Road, south of Highway 401 is a big box retail area that offers a nice mix of high profile national chain stores.
Prices of homes for sale in Weston and elsewhere depend on the availability of local entertainment attractions. Luckily, this neighbourhood is located near some amazing options. Lions Park off Hickory Tree Road which overlooks the Humber River, is the largest park in this area. This park includes four tennis courts, two baseball diamonds, two swimming pools, a snack bar, as well as a children's playground.
Lions Park is also the home of the Weston Lions Recreation Arena which features ice rentals and banquet hall facilities. The National Hockey League All Star Paul Coffey was played in the Weston Minor Hockey League and operates out of this arena.
Furthermore, the local Weston Golf and Country Club hosted the 1955 Canadian Open where the famous Arnold Palmer won his first professional game.

Laminarin ist eine in der Natur häufig vorkommende chemische Verbindung. Es ist ein zu den (1→3)-β-D-Glucanen gehörendes, je nach Form in Wasser lösliches Polysaccharid. In seiner polymerisierten Form dient es Algen, vor allem Braunalgen und Kieselalgen als Energiespeicher, ähnlich wie die Stärke bei den Landpflanzen.

Aufbau
In unregelmäßiger Folge ist die Hauptkette des Laminarins verzweigt, wobei ein weiteres Glucosemolekül β-(1→6)-verbunden ist. Das Verhältnis von β-(1→3) und β-(1→6)-glycosidisch verknüpften Glucosemolekülen beträgt 15:1. Andere Quellen berichten von einem Verzweigungsgrad von 3:1.

In verschiedenen Braunalgenarten wurden sowohl lösliche (Laminaria digitata), als auch wasserunlösliche Formen (Laminaria cloustoni und Laminaria hyperborea) gefunden. Der Verzweigungsgrad bestimmt, ob die Verbindung wasserlöslich ist; das wenig verzweigte Laminarin ist löslich. Die wasserlösliche Form besteht aus 23–25 Glucoseeinheiten. Pro 37 (wasserlösliche Form) bzw. 57 (wasserunlösliche Form) Glucoseeinheiten ist das reduzierende Kettenende mit einem Molekül Mannit glycosidisch maskiert.

Das Dimer aus zwei Glucoseeinheiten, die (1→3)-β-verknüpft sind, ist die Laminaribiose.

Gewinnung
Laminarin wird in größeren Mengen aus dem Fingertang (Laminaria digitata) gewonnen.

Verwendung und biologische Bedeutung
Bei Tieren erzeugt Laminarin eine Antwort des jeweiligen Immunsystems. Wie viele Algen-Polysaccharide sind sulfatierte Laminarine potente Gerinnungshemmer. Früher wurde Laminarin auch als Arzneistoff zur Behandlung von nervösen Störungen verwendet.

Bei den Braunalgen ist Laminarin ein Reservekohlenhydrat mit ähnlicher Funktion wie die Stärke der Landpflanzen oder das Glykogen bei Tieren. Das Enzym Laminarinase (endo-1,3(4)-β-Glucanase) baut Polysaccharide mit β-1,3- und β-1,4-glycosidisch verbundenen Glucosebausteinen ab.

In the summer of 2012, as Avengers assembled and a Dark Knight (arguably) had risen, critics and audiences headed to a quirky indie comedy about a group of reporters investigating an unusual classified ad seeking a time travel companion called Safety Not Guaranteed. But can this film last the test of time or should it get lost in film history? Eric, Kent and Lobster investigate.

Secret Empire Exposed: Quake
Daisy Johnson leads her reluctant Secret Warriors against evil!
by TJ Dietsch
Each week, we use our super sleuth skills to dig into the histories of the characters fighting on both sides of Secret Empire!
The world has gone crazy. Captain America took over the world for Hydra and now Daisy Johnson leads her own team of Inhuman heroes against him in SECRET WARRIORS by Matthew Rosenberg and Javier Garron.
Also known as Quake, this hero has been working the darker side of the Marvel Universe since she first appeared in SECRET WAR #2 back in 2004. That story, by Brian Michael Bendis and Gabriele Dell'Otto, featured Nick Fury sending Captain America, Spider-Man, Luke Cage, Wolverine, Black Widow, and Daredevil to illegally take over Latveria under Johnson's command. Since the mission led to a major super villain attack on New York City and he used brainwashing to entice his operatives, Fury went underground which eventually paved the way for Daisy to become Director of S.H.I.E.L.D. for a time.
When Fury put together his original Secret Warriors team, Daisy not only helped recruit the offspring of existing super humans for the "Caterpillar" squad, but also went up against Hydra a number of times while working with the group. Those encounters seemed to carry over into her other appearances. In the pages of AGENTS OF S.H.I.E.L.D., she worked with her team as well as the Avengers to stop Gorgon from unleashing an army of Iron Man armors programmed with Agent Coulson's plans on how to take down just about every hero in the Marvel Universe.
Now she's leading her own squad in SECRET WARRIORS, including Ms. Marvel, Karnak, Moon Girl, Devil Dinosaur, and Lockjaw. Not bad for the daughter of Mr. Hyde!
Thanks to Daisy's ongoing presence on "Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D." as played by Chloe Bennet, a whole new audience has gotten to know the erstwhile Inhuman. As viewers of the series will remember, she began life on the series as super-hacker Skye who got recruited by Agent Coulson. In the second season, she gained her familiar powers and learned that Daisy Johnson is her true name.
