RC Power Wheels for My Son's 2nd Birthday!
I've had a dream to RC-ify a Power Wheel since I was about 10 years old. A few months ago, a friend gave me an old beat-up, used-as-a-chew-toy, barely functional Power Wheel. I decided to make a childhood dream come true and completely overhaul the Power Wheel so that my 2 year old son can ride in it! The entire thing was rebuilt and modified. The best part is, permanent modifications were kept to a minimum so when he's old enough, I can put it back to stock so he can drive it on his own!
Step 2: Lol! Jk! He's Stoked Just to Be Sitting in It!
It's pretty beaten up though... I got it second hand from a friend. Battery won't hold a charge, paint is faded, decals are peeling, and dogs had used it as a chew toy.
Let's see what we can do to improve on it!
Step 3: First Things First. Let's Strip It Down for a New Paint Job!
Note where it had been chewed to bits. Entire sideview mirror is missing and there's a hole in the windshield.
The entire thing was stripped and cleaned with dish soap before a light buff in preparation for a new paint job.
Krylon flat dark grey was used here.
Semi-gloss black for all trim pieces. I forgot to photograph it, but the grill and Ford logos all got some silver accents also.
Candy Apple Red! Starting to look sharp!
I needed extensive patchwork for the windshield. One corner was chewed to bits. I used Bondo and globbed it on. Then took a dremel to it and shaped it before painting. *Almost* can't tell!
Truck bed gets a few coats of PlastiDip spray. Here I also test fit the seats.
Step 9: Hey, How'd That Get Here??
Step 10: Interior Is Finished!
Note the empty slot in the dash. Future mods include a custom radio pre-loaded with all of his favorite sing along songs! I'll also eventually add functional head light, talk lights, turn signals, and various buttons/switches with lights and sounds for him to play with!
At this point in the build I'm waiting on the final body parts to arrive, so let's move on to electronics!
Step 11: Now on to the Fun Part! Electronics!
I used an industrial servo from eBay. 12/24v and 180kg/cm of torque. I'm only running it at 12v so in order to turn the wheels the car has to be moving. Maybe in the future I'll upgrade to 24v.
Servo mount is made from a 1/8" x 1 1/4" piece of weldable steel beat in to submission on my bench vice. 4th picture shows the angle needed for mounting. It wasn't easy but with my wood working protractor I estimated the angle and it worked out pretty well!
The opposite end of the servo arm is just a 6" bold with some rollers.
I was able to mount the servo in just the right place to use the existing steering holes minimizing permanent modifications. Only permanent mods are 4 holes drilled to run wires for the servo and ESC.
And just in time for my son's 2nd birthday! He is going to be SOOO Stoked when he gets to ride in it! I can't describe how excited I am to share my childhood dream with my son!
Thanks for making it this far in my build! If you have any questions please, feel free to ask! This was one of the most fun projects I've done in a long time. Some day I'll upgrade it further but for now I think this will make a 2 year old the happiest and coolest kid in town!
If you don't mind, take a moment to vote for me in the "Make It Go" contest as well! Thanks and all the best!
Your instructable was well done. I was impressed with the results you got painting plastic.
You are making indelible memories for your little one. Best wishes going forward.
Very nice job. I love turning junk into treasure. I hate seeing stuff thrown away unless it has been completely used up. I watch Craigslist for free stuff and rebuild as a hobby and a little extra cash. You find a lot of electric toys with nothing wrong except the batteries are dead, or they are missing the charger. That and some sun damage.
I picked up a free Power�Wheels off craigslist. It didn't run even after charging. Turns out the wire to the "gass" pedal wasn't connected. A quick solder and it ran fine.
Wow!! Featured with my first Instructable! Thanks anonymous Editor!!!

Can you name the largest bank headquartered in Louisiana?
'Most people are going to be shocked,' Origin Bank CEO Drake Mills said
Can you name the largest bank headquartered in Louisiana? 'Most people are going to be shocked,' Origin Bank CEO Drake Mills said Check out this story on dailyworld.com: https://www.thenewsstar.com/story/news/2019/11/22/origin-bank-set-become-largest-bank-louisiana/4269926002/
Greg Hilburn, Monroe News Star Published 10:31 a.m. CT Nov. 22, 2019 | Updated 3:49 p.m. CT Nov. 22, 2019
Can you name the largest bank headquartered in Louisiana? Not likely.
Origin Bank, headquartered in the village of Choudrant, will become the state's largest bank with $5.5 billion in assets when IberiaBank's merger with First Horizon is complete and its headquarters is moved from Lafayette to Memphis under the First Horizon name.

"Most people are going to be shocked," Origin Bank's Chief Executive Officer Drake Mills said, laughing.
Though the bank headquarters is located in Choudrant, with a population of fewer than 1,000 and one blinking traffic light, the corporate company headquarters is in the city of Ruston, home to a vibrant economy and Louisiana Tech University.
Mills said he promised his mentor and former CEO John Emory he wouldn't move the bank headquarters address, paying homage to the company's roots that got its start as the Bank of Choudrant more than a century ago in 1912.

Mills took the company public in the spring of 2018 and it now trades under the symbol OBNK.
"We've experienced pretty phenomenal growth — most of it organic," Mills said.
"It's a testament to the talent of our team and our culture," said Mills, citing bank President Lance Hall and others.
Origin Bank employs about 800 company wide with operations in Louisiana, Mississippi and Texas. More than 200 of those, including the company's executive team, are located at the corporate headquarters in Ruston.
"When I recruit other companies to Ruston I use Origin Bank as an example both as a point of pride and to show our city can provide an environment to support such a large company," Ruston Mayor Ronny Walker said.
"Drake's vision and his ability to execute it has been incredible, and we're excited the company has chosen to remain here and grow," Walker said.
Louisiana energy magnate James Davison is among the bank's largest stockholders.
"It's a big deal, and its success is one of the driving forces in my decision to develop Squire Creek in Choudrant," said Davison, whose Squire Creek golf club and surrounding residential area has become a signature development in the region.
The bank changed its name from the Bank of Choudrant to Community Trust Bank in 1986 and to Origin Bank in 2015 to elevate its brand as the company continued to expand beyond its founding borders with an eye toward going public.
Mills joined the bank in 1983 and rose to become its top executive in 2003.
"Becoming Louisiana's largest bank will make other companies and banks recognize us as a player as we continue to seek ways for smart, profitable growth," Mills said.
And having the headquarters of a public company located in Ruston maximizes the company's economic impact on the city and all of northern Louisiana, said North Louisiana Economic Partnership President Scott Martinez.
"Origin Bank is a leading economic driver along the I-20 corridor," Martinez said. "To have a company with such a broad reach centered in Ruston isn't just a feather in our cap, but it grows our economy.
"All of the decision makers are here," Martinez said. "That means anybody who wants to do business with the company has to come to Ruston and all of the profits from other states return to Louisiana to grow this economy."
Mills said future growth could come from acquisitions.
"We believe we have a model that will allow us to remain independent and grow to benefit our team, our customers, our shareholders and our community," he said.

This article explores the ethical challenges of providing Medical Assistance in Dying (MAID) in a paediatric setting. More specifically, we focus on the theoretical questions that came to light when we were asked to develop a policy for responding to MAID requests at our tertiary paediatric institution. We illuminate a central point of conceptual confusion about the nature of MAID that emerges at the level of practice, and explore the various entailments for clinicians and patients that would flow from different understandings. Finally, we consider the ethical challenges of building policy on what is still an extremely controversial social practice. While MAID is currently available to capable patients in Canada who are 18 years or older—a small but important subsection of the population our hospital serves—we write our policy with an eye to the near future when capable young people may gain access to MAID. We propose that an opportunity exists for MAID-providing institutions to reduce social stigma surrounding this practice, but not without potentially serious consequences for practitioners and institutions themselves. Thus, this paper is intended as a road map through the still-emerging legal and ethical landscape of paediatric MAID. We offer a view of the roads taken and considered along the way, and our justifications for travelling the paths we chose. By providing a record of our in-progress thinking, we hope to stimulate wider discussion about the issues and questions encountered in this work.
Contributors RZS, Director of the Department of Bioethics, and AR, Medical Director of Palliative Care/Paediatric Advanced Care Team, were asked to assemble and co-chair an interdisciplinary working group that would develop a policy for responding to requests for MAID at The Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto, Ontario. They invited CD, a PhD Candidate at the University of Toronto's Joint Centre for Bioethics, to participate in the working group and to draft the hospital's policy. Conversations with the interdisciplinary MAID Working Group brought important normative questions to light. These theoretical questions and their practical entailments were drafted into the present paper by CD. All authors provided substantial contributions to the conception of the article. While CD drafted, RZS and AR revised critically for important intellectual content, and all provided final approval of the version being published and agreed to be accountable for all aspects of the work.
Funding Funding for this project was provided by The Hospital for Sick Children.

ago, by Jane Abigail in Health → Fitness • 2615 views These days, at the Canadian Cardiovascular Congress 2010, Dr. Kevin Harris and colleagues made public the results of a study made on 63 children, all around 13 years old, with obesity signs. After taking their blood test, measuring their BMI (Body Mass Index), valuating their lipids and undergoing echocardiography, they calculated the Pulse Wave Velocity, which is an indicator of aortic stiffness. "The normal aorta has elastic qualities that buffer the flow of blood. When that elasticity is lost, aortic stiffness results - a sign of developing cardiovascular disease," Dr. Harris told the meeting. "Aortic stiffness is associated with cardiovascular events and early death." Aorta is the largest blood vessel of the body and it connects the heart with major blood vessels in the body.
Pulse Wave Velocity and other measurements showed that aortal health was already damaged. "We know there is an association between unhealthy lifestyles and heart disease. Our kids are at risk," she says. "Poor nutrition and inactivity are threatening their health and well-being. We must rethink the lifestyle standards we have accepted as a society to protect the future health of our kids." The children obesity is becoming an increasing problem in US and European countries, it has been tripled in the last 25 years and is continuing to grow. The results of this study are important because they show aortic modifications in the elastic properties, while the blood lipid levels and blood pressure remains normal. This may be a compensatory effect of the young child organism, but which may decompensate with aging. The risks of the children obesity include diabetes type 2, heart diseases and high blood pressure.

Side Effects of Edarbi (Azilsartan)
More in High Blood Pressure
Rebeca Schiller
Rebeca Schiller is a health and wellness writer with over a decade of experience covering topics including digestive health, pain management, and holistic nutrition.

Among the medications to treat hypertension (high blood pressure), Edarbi (azilsartan) is categorized as an angiotensin II receptor antagonist (ARB) and is used alone or concurrently with other medications to treat high blood pressure. It is used for adults 18 years or older.
High blood pressure is a significant risk factor for cardiovascular disease. In the United States, it affects at least 1 in 3 adults and can lead to the death of 1 in every 7 individuals.
If your doctor has prescribed azilsartan to manage your high blood pressure, note there are a number of potential side effects that may require medical attention, especially if you are on non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) treatment or you are pregnant.
Mild to Moderate Side Effects
Azilsartan functions by blocking the effects of the angiotensin II hormone that narrows the blood vessels, allowing the blood to flow with greater ease so that the heart is able to pump in a more efficient manner.
A 2011 study examined the use of azilsartan to treat high blood pressure. Among the side effects noticed in clinical trials with 4,814 patients, diarrhea was the most common occurring in patients who were taking an 80-milligram dose of the medication.
Other symptoms that don't necessarily require medical attention, unless they continue to be ongoing symptoms, include:
Physical weakness (asthenia)
Report any side effects, even mild ones, to your doctor.
Among the reported serious side effects that require immediate medical attention are the following:
Your doctor may note these abnormal findings in blood tests:
Increased levels of creatinine (a waste product produced by muscles)
Increased uric acid levels
Elevated blood urea nitrogen
For incidents of these adverse side effects, your doctor or you should send a report to the Food and Drug Administration's FDA MedWatch Adverse Reporting Program online or call 1-800-332-1088.
Azilasartan and Pregnancy
If you are pregnant, azilsartan can harm the fetus. Discontinue taking azilsartan immediately.
Medications that affect the renin-angiotensin system reduces the fetus's renal function, resulting in oligohydramnios (too little amniotic fluid around the fetus) that can lead to lung underdevelopment (hypoplasia), skeletal deformation including underdevelopment of the skull, and low blood pressure (hypotension) during the second and third trimesters of pregnancy, which may increase the risk of fetal and neonatal death.
Frequent ultrasound examinations are recommended throughout the pregnancy to evaluate the intra-amniotic fluid along with testing of the fetus based on the trimester of the pregnancy.
When to Talk to Your Doctor
There are certain conditions and medications that may increase the risk of side effects if azilsartan has been prescribed. For example, azilsartan can not be administered to patients with diabetes who are being treated with aliskiren-containing products.
Elderly patients who are currently treated with diuretic therapy and are volume-depleted (a deficit of extracellular fluid volume), have compromised kidney function, and are taking NSAIDs, (including COX-2 inhibitors) with azilsartan may experience side effects resulting in worsening kidney function that can lead to acute kidney failure.
These side effects typically can be reversed. However, patients will need to be monitored more frequently to check their kidney function.
Other concerns include:
Patients who have been prescribed azilsartan (or any other ARBs), combined with the consumption of alcoholic beverages will experience a dramatic drop in blood pressure that can cause dizziness or fainting.
If you previously experienced side effects with ACE inhibitors, alert your physician.
Azilsartan and other ARBs may interact with antacids, drugs, vitamins, or salt substitutes containing potassium and over-the-counter drugs for cold, flu, or hay fever.
Be sure to always consult with your doctor which prescription and over-the-counter drugs you are taking for specific conditions to minimize the risk of side effects.
Many people with high blood pressure will need to take more than one medication to control it to reach a healthy goal and reduce their risk of cardiovascular disease. Azilsartan is an ARB, but other types of drugs are used for the treatment of high blood pressure. Other medications include:
Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors
Beta-adrenergic blockers
Alpha-adrenergic blockers
Calcium channel blockers (CCBs)
Central alpha-adrenergic receptor agonists (also called central adrenergic inhibitors)
Direct renin inhibitors (DRIs)
Treating hypertension is a component of managing potential cardiovascular risk. Other measures, when deemed relevant, include lipid control, diabetes management, antithrombotic therapy (treating blood clots), cigarette smoking termination, exercise, and reducing sodium consumption.

National Manatee Appreciation Day!
March 26, 2014 |All Posts,avma animal health awareness,endangered species,manatee,manatee appreciation day,marine herbivores,mermaids,Smarty Vet,wildlife conservation
Today is National Manatee Appreciation Day, and we want to do our part to pay tribute to these unique and peculiar marine mammals. Each year, this last Wednesday in March is dedicated to raising awareness in the United States about Manatees in order to encourage preservation of their natural habitat and to protect the species. (Floridians also spend an entire month celebrating the Manatee every year during November).
There are plenty of reasons that Manatees have garnered such a following, the most obvious of which is that they are totally adorable.
Manatees are oftentimes referred to as "Sea Cows", but we won't tell them that. Interestingly enough, it isn't the cow that they are most closely related to. They are most similar to elephants, and have been known to weigh in at as much as 3,500 pounds! Manatees have spent thousands of years becoming what they are today, having evolved from prehistoric land mammals. Did you know that of all the marine mammals that have been identified, Manatees are the only herbivores? The only teeth they have are molars designed for grinding vegetation.
So, why is it important for us to focus on preservation of this gentle veggie-loving giant? What makes them so special? It's about more than just the manatee. It's about the ecosystem in which the manatee lives. Manatees control the overgrowth of some types of vegetation, while providing fertilization for others. Without the Manatee, survival for other sea creatures would be difficult, especially those who depend on this balance of vegetation.
It is believed that original sailors' tales of mermaids at sea were actually based on manatee sightings. According to the History Channel, on January 9, 1493, Christopher Columbus recorded an encounter with three mermaids, which were later found to be three manatees travelling together. In his journal, he stated that they were "not half as beautiful as they are painted to be."
We love you, manatee. We think you are beautiful. Don't change a thing.

The Xiaomi Mi 4i features a similar 5" Full HD IPS display to the one we saw on the Mi 4. It has 441ppi for pleasantly sharp imagery. Unfortunately, the glass covering the display isn't scratch-resistant.
Taking a closer look at it under our digital microscope reveals a standard RGB arrangement of the sub-pixels that make up the Xiaomi Mi 4i LCD panel.
The display on the Xiaomi Mi 4i has a lower maximum brightness level compared to the one on Xiaomi Mi 3, while retaining the same good contrast and colors.
Xiaomi is providing options for color temperature and saturation, so you can tweak the display to your liking.
The sunlight legibility has been slightly improved and the Xiaomi Mi 4i's screen performs very well outdoors. You will be able to comfortably see what's happening on the screen even on the brightest day.
Xiaomi has also included a display tech for boosting the brightness of darker areas of your screen to make them more visible when there's bright light source present. It's similar to what Sony has been doing with its flagships lately only here it works throughout the interface and not just in the gallery.
The Xiaomi Mi 4i supports 6 LTE bands and you can tap to an LTE network on either SIM, but the other will default to a GSM band. The Mi 4i also offers quad-band GSM connectivity and tri-band 3G connectivity with HSPA support.
The rest of the connectivity features include dual-band Wi-Fi a/b/g/n/ac support and Wi-Fi Direct. There is also support for Bluetooth 4.1, GPS and GLONASS, plus an FM radio.
A microUSB 2.0 port handles charging and data connections. Media transfer mode is supported for accessing the phone's built-in memory over a USB connection. The microUSB port also supports USB On-the-go for connecting USB peripherals such as pen drives, keyboards or real USB hard drives.
Xiaomi has put a 3,120mAh battery inside the Mi 4i, a solid capacity for a 5" device. In our battery test the Xiaomi Mi 4i scored a 64h rating, which means you can count on a little over two and a half days if you do an hour each of calling, browsing and video playback a day.
Opting for using the device with just one SIM card active, you can squeeze a little more out of the battery. The single-SIM endurance rating is 67 hours.

María del Pilar Montenegro López (née le  à Mexico) est une actrice et chanteuse mexicaine.

Biographie
Quand Montenegro a 10 ans, elle a décroché son premier rôle d'actrice dans la série télévisée Juguemos A Cantar. En 1988, elle rejoint le groupe Fresas con Crema avec Andrea Legarreta, toutes deux remplaçant Claudia Fernández ; plus tard la même année, elle quitte ce groupe pour rejoindre Garibaldi.

En 1994, elle fait ses débuts en tant qu'actrice dans la telenovela Volver a empezar, jouant Jessica, une jeune femme antipathique. En 1996, elle quitte Garibaldi pour poursuivre une carrière solo en sortant son premier album Son del Corazón. Elle se fait connaître avec le deuxième en 1997, De amarte.

En 2001, Montenegro revient sur la scène musicale grâce à son ancien mari et producteur de musique exécutif Jorge Reynoso, après 6 mois d'enregistrement avec la production musicale de Rudy Perez, ils sortent son deuxième album Desahogo. La reprise de Quitame Ese Hombre de Yolandita Monge est onze semaines consécutives numéro un du Hot Latin Tracks du Billboard. Pour cet album, elle remporte quatre Latin Billboard Awards.

En 2004, elle interprète le générique d'entrée de la telenovela Prisionera, produite par Telemundo.

En , au Mexique, elle fait sa dernière apparition publique dans la pièce de théâtre El comitenorio, elle abandonne à la fois sa vie artistique et les interviews et tout type d'exposition publique.

En 2014, elle affirme se consacrer à sa famille. En , lors d'une interview concernant la reformation du groupe Garibaldi, ses anciens collègues démentent les rumeurs d'un alcoolisme ou d'une maladie héréditaire terminale qui l'aurait mise dans un fauteuil roulant, mais ils confirment que la raison de sa retraite est bien l'ataxie de la sclérose en plaques.

What is ARISE?
ARISE is a broad-based partnership of elders, parents, community members and approximately 20 local organizations and agencies dedicated to the cradle to community success of Alaska Native and American Indian children and youth in Anchorage. We are a network of people committed to the success of all Alaska Native students in Anchorage, with an unshakable belief in the innate value and potential of each child and the importance of indigenous cultures in unlocking that possibility.
What is the mission of ARISE?
We are dedicated to ensuring that "From cradle to community, every Alaska Native child leads a healthy and empowered life with access to unlimited opportunities." We're committed to Anchorage being a community where Alaska Native children and youth get the best start possible are empowered to succeed as they move through the cycle of life to parenthood, careers and life as adults and, eventually, elders themselves.
What are ARISE's goals?
Our goals are to ensure that that all Alaska Native children are empowered and nurtured to:
Make successful academic transitions
Achieve emotional, social and physical well-being
Know who they are, their heritage and culture, and their role in the community
Is ARISE a program?
ARISE is a community partnership but not a stand-alone program of any one partner. Instead, ARISE partners cooperate to align existing resources like partner programs and local expertise to work more effectively, and to measure the collective impact of our differentiated efforts toward common goals. The 2012 McDowell Group study identified a lack of strategic coordination among many local programs serving Alaska Native students. ARISE is working to correct that through community engagement informed by local data.
What are these outcomes and indicators?
An individual's journey from cradle to community includes crucial benchmarks, or outcomes, that can be measured by specific indicators. These indicators will help us follow the progress of Alaska Native children and guide our efforts to support their success. For example, one outcome in the Academic focus area is "Alaska Native students attend school," and the indicator for this is the percentage of students who attend school 90 percent of the days they are enrolled.
Why focus on Alaska Native students?
Alaska Native and American Indian students make up nearly 20 percent of the students in the Anchorage School District (ASD). By learning more about their experiences, and aligning existing resources, we can have an impact on more than 8,000 students in the district, plus families and children not yet in school. A focus on this particular population means we can engage with them more specifically, and marshal unique resources available to Alaska Native and American Indian students and families. Alaska Native student success is vital to Anchorage's success and benefits everyone in our community – making this a better, stronger, and even more vibrant city. What we learn by helping Alaska Native students succeed will inform efforts to support all students' success.
How many Alaska Native and American Indian students are in the ASD?
When Alaska Native/American Indian students are fully counted, their population among the students within the ASD more than doubles, growing from 4,224 to 8,550, and from 8.8 percent to 17.8 percent of the total student body. This increase comes from accurately distributing the "two or more races" category required by federal reporting, which minimizes the actual size of racial minority communities by combining all multi-racial students into one category and counting all students who report being part Latino only as Hispanic. Our count results in an over-count for the total student population, but properly recognizes how all students racially and ethnically identify, including Alaska Native students.
How is ARISE different than other community initiatives?
ARISE has a special focus on Alaska Native and American Indian students, and our vision for them is "cradle to community" success, which encompasses their trajectory from learner to leader and toddler to elder. ARISE's focus is also broader than just school and career. We include a culture focus area, which we are working to develop outcomes for, and also a focus on social and emotional well-being. Some of our leadership council members are also participating in other initiatives such as 90% by 2020 and Alaska Native Dialogues on Racial Equity (ANDORE) – these efforts are complementary.
Who is involved in ARISE?
The ARISE partnership has members from approximately 20 local organizations, and includes parents, Alaska Native elders, educators, researchers, and other community members. Cook Inlet Tribal Council (CITC) employs ARISE staff person, hosts meetings, serves as the fiscal agent, and otherwise serves as the convening organization of the ARISE partnership. ARISE is comprised of a leadership council with an executive committee, outcome-specific strategic action teams (SATs), and work groups that provide analysis and support to the partnership's efforts. An array of allies, funders and experts contribute important assistance.
Let's ARISE together!

Shazia Hobbs: Forced to marry and violently abused under Sharia – in the UK!
Feb 19, 2017 | Victims/Survivors
"Sharia … should not be allowed to operate in the UK."
I had followed (Toni Bugle, founder of MARIAS) on Twitter for quite a while before we started speaking. She asked if I lived in the UK and from there we began to DM ("direct message"), exchanged mobile numbers and then spoke on the phone.
I wanted to share my experience, as I believe it is important for others who are still suffering to know that they are not alone and to also show that Sharia cannot and should not be allowed to operate in the UK.
I was forced into a marriage at the age of 18 (Ed: Shazia is now in her 40's). The nikkah took place in my family home. It was obvious that I was not happy to be forced into the marriage but the molvi didn't care. My father had decided I was to be married and his decision was gospel. The molvi didn't give a damn about my feelings or my refusal to say 'I do.'
The marriage was going ahead whether I agreed or not.
Forced into a marriage to a man much older than I was who made it clear, from the start, that he married me only for the red passport was hell. What else could it have been?
My mother told me I would grow to love him. Grow to love a man who raped me? Grow to love a man who raped me so violently one night that the next day I ended up in hospital?
Bleeding and passing clots I was taken into theatre where I was stitched internally. I refused to tell the doctors what had happened, too embarrassed, but surely they must have known. Nothing was done to protect me from him, no safeguarding agencies were notified and I left hospital a few days later.
This was the early 90's and some of the mullahs and molvis at mosques (in the UK) were beginning to enforce Sharia law.
"I was beaten because (under Sharia) he could"
My experience of it was part of life. I was beaten because he could, and he didn't need to tell me he had this right under Sharia. It was normal — same as the forced marriage was normal and part of life.
I had witnessed others getting forced into a marriage and so when my turn came I went along with it. At first I did protest but soon shut up when I realised protesting was not going to help me.
I left him after three years and for that my father and the entire Pakistani community disowned me; I was no longer welcome and had to make a new life in the 'white' community. When all you have known is the Pakistani community trying to fit into a different community is hard.
Twenty-five years later and I still suffer …
… from (the past experience of) being forced into a marriage and from being disowned. I struggled with intimacy, I abused drugs for the longest time, and I ruined friendships as I became too full on and intense, wanting my new friends to become my family.
The government failed to protect me all those years ago for fear offending my father's culture and today they are still failing in protecting.
They have made it a criminal offence to force your child into a marriage but when you have mosques enforcing Sharia law the British law is ignored. When Sharia law is allowed to operate, Pakistani families have no fear of forcing their children into marriages, as they know they are protected under Sharia and nothing will happen to them.

Cloud computing represents a new computing paradigm and a further step towards realizing the vision to provide computing resources as a utility similar to the provision of electricity (Buyya et al., 2009). Several Cloud vendors have emerged to date and their services can be classified according to the definition of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), which makes use of a three layer model (Mell & Grance, 2011): Software-as-a-Service (SaaS), Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS), and Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS). Although the service types are different, all types of Cloud-based resources have five essential characteristics in common (Mell & Grance, 2011):
Cloud-based resources are automatically provided on-demand, when they are requested by a Cloud consumer.
Cloud-based resources can be accessed worldwide using standard network mechanisms.
Cloud-based resources support access in a multi-tenant way.
The underlying Cloud infrastructure is able to adapt to changing resource demands, i.e., it allows for dynamic up- and down-scaling.
The resource consumption is measured and serves as a foundation for elastic pricing and billing models.
Taking these properties into account and focusing on data storage, Cloud-based solutions provide several advantages in contrast to former data centre solutions. Especially, the following three aspects can be mentioned (Armbrust et al., 2010):
The appearance of an infinite amount of available computing resources provisioned on demand.
No up-front commitment by Cloud users required in terms of reserving the estimated maximum of resource utilisation in advance.
Dynamic resource allocation and release allowing for short-term billing models.
Therefore, a Cloud-based Information Infrastructure is applied within SIMPLI-CITY for the preprocessing, storage, and access of data coming from various, technologically heterogeneous sources.
Thereby is cloud computing not only the common term for public available services. Also private and hybrid concepts exist:
Private cloud: Private clouds can involve pooling computing resources within the enterprise and allocating them dynamically to internal users. Normally, though, dedicated private clouds are provisioned and managed by an outside service provider. These clouds are designed to satisfy the specific needs of corporate customers and to provide ICT services on the fly. Specialized providers with network capabilities can supply private clouds as one-stop, end-to-end solutions. They cover the full range of ICT services and systems, from mobile and stationary devices to connectivity and bandwidth to the integration of ICT into the customer's business processes. They also guarantee service levels through binding Service Level Agreements (SLAs).
Hybrid cloud: It appears likely that the hybrid cloud – a combination of public and private clouds – will dominate cloud computing in the enterprise space. Providers are already mixing and matching private clouds and public services to create end-to-end offerings. They integrate public clouds mainly to capture certain functions or capitalize on economies of scale. The combination can even enhance security. A public directory service, for instance, lets users easily use and send encrypted or signed e-mails between secured private domains. Essentially, public cloud services connect private clouds and utilize the integrated security technology.
In general there are several new trends in Cloud Data Storage: Enterprises are beginning to see the benefits of using the cloud to harness the business intelligence (BI) in big data. And Cloud computing offers scalability, which makes it a practical vehicle for big data analytics.

The TA330 Breather Valve has the same performance characteristics as the TA333-R Pressure Relief Valve, except it does not have a manual release push button. It is ideal for pressure relief applications or situations where a manual release feature is not wanted. The TA330 has separate and distinct settings for both pressure and vacuum relief. It has a flow rate of 1.5 to 4.0 SCFM at 1.5 psi above the valve reseal setting. The lower the setting, the higher the flow rate.
The TA330 Breather Valve is tamper-proof and requires no field maintenance. Corrosion-resistant materials are used throughout. The valve seal is made of silicone rubber. The spherical valve seat is Teflon coated for easy "break- away" action even after prolonged storage. Gasket, washer and hex nut for mounting are provided with each valve.
A weldable nut is available for use as a threaded boss, or the valve may be used with our Mounting Flanges. RFI/EMI shielding is also available. For additional enclosure protection, AGM can develop a custom desiccant cartridge that mates with the valve. TA330 Valves may be equipped with a rear-mounted High Flow Filter, which can also incorporate RFI/EMI shielding.
The TA330 Breather Valve's unique cover and dust baffle provides superior protection from sand and dust intrusion. Additionally, the cover makes this valve well suited for high-pressure hose down applications. When compared to a screened valve such as AGM's TA238 Breather Valve as well as competitors' valves, the TA330 Breather Valve allows virtually no water to pass when subjected to a high-pressure water stream. The TA330 Breather Valve has been tested to the NEMA 250 5.7 high-pressure hose down test; contact AGM's Engineering department for more information.
The TA330 valve is offered in two types: "Cracking" and " Reseal". Cracking valves are rated by cracking pressure (the pressure at which the valve has opened enough to flow 1 cubic centimeter per minute) and the flow rate at 1.5 psi above the cracking pressure. Reseal valves are rated by reseal pressure (the pressure by which the valve is guaranteed to close after it has cracked open) and the flow rate at 1.5 psi above the reseal pressure.
Note that whether you are specifying a reseal valve or a cracking valve, the flow rate at 1.5 psi above the reseal pressure is usually the most important parameter when selecting a valve: per SAE Specification AS27166, you should select a valve with a flow rate of at least 12% of the container volume per minute at a pressure less than the container's pressure rating. For instance, when choosing a valve for a container with a volume of 10 cubic feet that can withstand a pressure of 2 psi, the recommended valve would flow 1.2 standard cubic feet per minute (SCFM) at 2 psid or less pressure differential. While at first glance it may appear that a valve with a crack point of 2 psi would be appropriate for this application, remember that the flow rate at crack is very low (1 cc/min) and therefore would very likely not provide adequate pressure relief. Refer to Theory and Characteristics for more information on selecting a breather valve.
Flow rate versus pressure curves are available for some valves. Contact AGM's Engineering Department if you require this information.
*A weldable nut is available for use as a threaded boss, or the valve may be used with our 658800 Mounting Flange. Add extra washer(s) for wall thickness less than 0.063 (2 mm). (AGM P/N 300013-16, order separately.) For threaded boss installation: 3/4-14 NPSM.
While typically configured as a two-way valve, this valve can be configured for one-way flow. Refer to the TA330-R drawing for two-way performance settings, and select the setting for the direction you need. For example, part number TA330-P-30 is the one-way pressure relief version of part number TA330-30-30-R, while part number TA330-V-30 is the one-way vacuum relief version. The vacuum relief version of the valve includes a manual release, but the pressure relief version does not. Contact AGM's Engineering Department for assistance, if needed.
*To convert psid to millibars, multiply by 69. To convert SCFM to liters/sec, multiply by 0.472.
Before making drawings of these valves, contact AGM for part numbers to be used.
Dash numbers for the Pressure and Vacuum sides may be used in any combination (i.e. TA330-05-15). AGM can also supply TA330 Valves with other settings than those shown above. Please contact AGM for availability. Before making drawings of these valves, contact AGM for part numbers to be used.
**Valves with -10C settings are rated for flow at 1.0 psi above the crack pressure, or 2.0 psid, instead of the usual 1.5 psi above crack pressure.
Dash numbers for the Pressure and Vacuum sides may be used in any combination (i.e. TA330-05C-15C). AGM can also supply TA330 Valves with other settings than those shown above. Please contact AGM for availability. Before making drawings of these valves, contact AGM for part numbers to be used.

During the breeding season, of about 5 months, flocks will occupy territories extending 2-15 sq km. Ostriches live in Africa and thrive in a wide variety of habitats, including deserts, semi-arid plains, savannas, and open woodlands. Only dinosaurs produced larger eggs. Feather Ease Slightly. Photos and Videos Today common ostriches prefer open land and are native to the savannas and Sahel of Africa, both north and south of the equatorial forest zone. Bouquet Bird Close Up. "Strothio camelus", the ostrich's scientific name, means camel-like. The males have an average height of … Hugh MacRae Morton (1921-2006), influential North Carolina businessman, promoter, public servant, and photographer, was born on 19 February 1921 in Wilmington, N.C., to Julian Walker and Agnes MacRae Morton (daughter of Wilmington businessman Hugh MacRae). These birds like water and frequently take baths, if given the opportunity, and are good swimmers. During the drought they are more likely to live in larger groups. Observing them in the wild gives us inside information that we often don't get. Habitat and distribution. Population in the Wild:Unknown The common ostrich (or Struthio camelus) is the largest known bird species in the world. Ostriches are mainly herbivores (granivores), they eat buds, leaves, seeds and flowers, and sometimes lizards, grasshoppers and animal remains that carnivorous predators have left. But unfortunately as the number of incidences of ostrich hounding escalates so … They fledge when they are 4 to 5 months old, and by about 18 months they are fully grown, reaching maturity at 2 to 4 years. One ostrich egg weighs as much as 24 or so chicken eggs. She lays her eggs first, then allows the others in the flock to produce theirs. Hannibul can be found roaming the African Forest. They live a nomadic lifestyle so as long as they are finding food, water, and shelter they will continue to inhabit various locations. However, the Ostrich is also known to live in colder regions as well. The habitat and distribution for the Ostrich is very diverse. Farmed common ostriches in Australia have established feral populations. These birds inhabit a range of semi-arid plains, from savanna to desert, as well as areas of open woodland. They often live around various grazing animals and it is a harmonized relationship. Ostrich is an indigenous bird of Africa nevertheless these birds also happened to be found once in the Middle East region too. That is where many people would never guess for them to be. Instead it runs. They are able to walk well on the sand due to the traction of their feet. This shows that they are able to adapt well to changes in their environment.
