Es'hagh Jahangiri met and talked with Shamshad Akhtar, the Executive Secretary of the United Nations Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific (ESCAP). The meeting was held in the Russian city of Sochi which the host to the 16th meeting of the Council of Heads of Government of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO).
The Iranian side, while referring to age-old history of Iran's ties with ESCAP, called for expansion of existing cooperation in line with sustainable development.
He said Iran was dealing with natural disasters like draught adding "Iran is facing lack of water while at times heady rainfalls lead to destructive floods."
"In recent years, drought has turned Iraq, Syria, Saudi Arabia and Iran into dangerous zones for formation of dust storms which affect lives of a great number of people even those residing in the Iranian capital," he underscored.
The official urged the United Nations to pay due attention to dust storms and help resolve the issue since it has caused difficulties for a large population inside the region.
He described earthquake as yet another common natural disaster in Iran recalling that two massive quakes had recently hit Iranian provinces of Kermanshah and Kerman.
Jahangiri referred to negotiations on establishment of the United Nations Natural Disaster Management Information Center in Tehran and stressed the need to finalize talks on the issue so that the center will become activated in the near future.
"Under provisions of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA), sanctions against Iran had to be removed while regrettably certain restrictions are still present indicating that the other side has failed to remain committed to its obligations," underlined Iran's 1st VP.
He said Iran would back measures of ESCAP in line with sustainable development asserting that the Islamic Republic of Iran had put sustainable and comprehensive development on the agenda.
The official underlined that Iran had taken effective steps in saving energy and using clean fossil fuels; "Iran supports any energy summit by ESCAP and is ready to share its experiences."
Dr. Shamshad Akhtar, Under-Secretary-General of the United Nations, for her part, said efforts will be made to open an ESCAP center in Iran as soon as possible though a number of administrative and technical issues need to be worked out together.
She said ESCAP was drafting a Sustainable Development Plan for Asia and the Pacific with member countries explaining "of course, Iran has also been actively involved in the preparation of the draft, and we are ready to provide more support to Iran as regards sustainable development goals."
Akhtar also presented a report on activities of ESCAP in various fields and provided Iran's Jahangiri with a written copy of the reports. She said a ministerial meeting on energy will be held in Thailand in April 2018 and, in view of Iran's significant in the field, expressed hope that a high-ranking representative of Iran will take part at the summit.

ED Farm Manager, Security Details Test Positive For COVID-19
in Africa, Health
President Mnangagwa's Sherwood Farm manager and some of his security details reportedly tested positive for COVID-19, The NewsHawks reports. This comes after President Mnangagwa reportedly changed his security detail after 20 soldiers from the Presidential Guard Brigade, reportedly tested positive for COVID-19 in October.
President Mnangagwa was reportedly forced to abandon his trip to Kwekwe after the diagnostics. A source reportedly told the publication that:
4 Soldiers from 2 Presidential Guard
10 Central Intelligence Organisation (CIO)
7 police officers from the Police Protection Unit
all went for COVID-19 tests ahead of COVID-19 tests:
The President's security team underwent Covid-19 tests at State House which involved inserting a six-inch-long swab into the nose (nasopharyngeal swab) for 15 seconds and rotating it several times.
It came as a shock when results came out. The President's security team had been struck by the virus and thankfully most of them are asymptomatic at this stage. A farm manager who is also related to the President also tested positive. His trip had to be abandoned.
Zimbabwe has gone through the pandemic's worst week as over 3000 new cases were recorded in the last 7 days alone.

Hi, Is it possible as I use a windows computer tethered to Helicon Remote once the images are finished rather than send to Helicon Focus send them out to Photoshop as DNG files or do you have to save first? as I always get the option to open in Helicon Focus and I want to work on the DNG file rather than a TIFF.
Re: HR to P/S CS6?
Helicon Remote saves the images in the format that the camera shoots in, as if you downloaded them from a memory card yourself. You can then take the folder and do anything you want with the images, but there is no complete integration with PS nor any other software except for Helicon Focus.


I was recently sent the Handstand Kids, Baking Around the World Cookbook Kit to review. I was excited to get this baking cookbook because my 9 year old daughter, Olivia, loves to cook and bake. I like to call her my little chef. She is actually able to do baking all on her own, but I still supervise. I remember at her age I loved baking and then being creative frosting the cakes. Olivia was thrilled to get the cookbook, she wanted to make something right away. But because of school we waited for the perfect Saturday to bake.
Not only is the baking cookbook filled with great recipes, the kit also included a whisk and 4 baking cups. It was tough to decide which recipe to bake but we finally decide on the Vanilla Cupcakes in a Cone. We had almost all the ingredients on hand, except for the cones. A quick run to the store fixed that. The cookbook's recipes are given a certain number of cupcakes on the top of the recipe page to tell you the difficulty of each recipe. The Vanilla Cupcakes in a Cone has 3 cupcakes, so it's considered a little more difficult. With two of my little chefs ready to bake, my 7 year old Isabella joined in the fun, so I stepped aside and was there for support.
They were able to read the directions, and do just about all the steps on their own. I actually poured the batter into the cones, but it was only because they were anxious to get them baked. There weren't as many cupcakes as the recipe stated but recipes always vary. Olivia and Isabella frosted some of the cupcakes in a cone with me. Olivia decided to top her own frosted cupcake with whipped cream and sprinkles and enjoyed it very much! Next time we are going to try putting something in the middle of the cupcakes since the frosting is only on top. We give the Handstand Kids, Baking Around the World Cookbook Kit, 5 cupcakes which is equal to 5 stars!
Visit their website to purchase your own Handstand Kids cookbook. They also carry other cookbook kits and cooking accessories. You can follow Handstand Kids on Facebook & Twitter to watch for great recipes and giveaways.


Private car is the best option to visit this place because when you will return you will face all sorts of difficulties to manage a public transport.
From Chittagong town go to TigerPass or Chittagong New market where you will find Bus or CNG that will go to the sea beach.
Bus fair maybe 15 tk per person. CNG fair is 150 to 200. But in the busy hour, specially when you return on night they will ask for 300 to 400 depending on the situation.
On the way you will see Marin Training Institute, Airport and Seaport. Road is good and all sorts of transports are available. I went there several times. Specially when I was working in Chittagong. The main beach is about 5 km long and wide enough. From the beach you can see the ships standing in the Bay of Bengal. Watching the sun rise and sun set from the beach is simply mind blowing.
This story is about my first visit to Potenga. My senior colleague and I went to Chittagong for the purpose of warehouse delivery of our project equipments. We kept all the equipments that we were going to install in different BTCL exchanges in Chittagong into a warehouse. We bought all the containers from seaport to warehouse and unload them, sort them and load them in the warehouse. We did the similar job in Dhaka warehouse as well. Maybe the last day of our work we went to Potenga (22.11.09). As my first time I was quite excited and enjoyed the place. Lot's of people come there in the evening and enjoy their time. Visitors view the Bay of Bengal sitting the heaps of the concrete bodies. There are lot's of big and small restaurants plus markets for the visitors on the beach. Though not many people take bath in this beach but it's popular for time pass and site seeing.
Now I am working in Huawei and doing GP Core IP Swap project. This days I am working in Chittagong and approximately the whole August month I have to stay here. On 08th August, Friday after Jumma prayer we decided to go Potenga. There are plenty of things to do rather than site seeing and taking batch. Play beach football, shoot the balloon with air gun, ride in a speed boat, ride in a horse, games for children and circus. We watch motorbike stunt inside a half wooden glob eat in a restaurant take lot's of pictures and few videos.
After joining KT it was my first Potenga visit with Tarick Bhai. Md. Tarick Ur Rahman Khan: Currently working in ADN Technologies. He is a nice man and always helped me in my bad times. There is a small pond inside the warehouse. It was a big place full of big equipment.That time I worked in Korea Telecom Corporation, Dhaka Office. Our work was to supervise the equipment that comes by port and kept in this warehouse. In the weekends we went there for refreshment.
This picture belongs to my 3rd visit to Potenga with BTCL officers and Korean colleagues. I wrote about that visit in my other post. Click here to see it. We went to Chittagong for the closing (FAT) of our project. Co-incidents is the time was same November, 30th, 2012. Same month after three years. The little girl writing her name in the beach sand in the picture is called Sadia.
3rd Visit at 2012.11.30 with Mr. Atiq & Mr. Saidur Rahman Sir, Mr. Ko & Mr. Lee.
4th Visit at 2014.08.08 with Huawei Sub-con team members.

US Senate Judiciary Committee begins Ketanji Brown Jackson confirmation hearings
Casey McGowan | Vermont Law School, US
March 21, 2022 07:19:45 pm
The US Senate Judiciary Committee began the Supreme Court confirmation hearings for Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson on Monday. This is the first of four days. During the first three days, Jackson will appear in front of the Senate Judiciary Committee, and the final day will entail testimony from others.
President Joe Biden nominated Jackson, a judge on the US Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit, as an associate justice to the Supreme Court on February 25. Jackson clerked for Justice Stephen Breyer from 1999-2000 and will replace him if confirmed. She will also become the first Black woman to sit on the Supreme Court.
The first day of confirmation hearings began with opening statements from the 20-member committee introducing Jackson. Once the opening statements were concluded, Jackson gave her 10-minute opening statement.
She reassured the senators that she takes her "duty to be independent very seriously." Jackson stated: "I decide cases from a neutral posture. I evaluate the facts, and I interpret and apply the law to the facts of the case before me, without fear or favor, consistent with my judicial oath." She said that she had met with 45 senators prior to this confirmation hearing, pointing out that this was the "fourth time" she appeared before the committee for confirmation.
The committee acknowledged that Jackson, if confirmed, would be the first justice to have experience as a public defender. Connecticut Senator Richard Blumenthal said that her experience as a public defender allows her to "understand our justice system uniquely, through the eyes of people who couldn't afford a lawyer." Blumenthal stated that Jackson had "appeared three previous times and [been] confirmed with bipartisan support."
South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham told Jackson that the hearing would not be a repeat of Justice Brett Kavanaugh's confirmation hearings, stating: "It means that no Republican senator is going to unleash on you an attack about your character when the hearing is virtually over."
Texas Senator Ted Cruz and Utah Senator Mike Lee asserted that Jackson's history on criminal cases was "fair game." Cruz stated: "Part of the Democratic effort to abolish the police is nominating justices that consistently side with violent criminals, release violent criminals, refuse to enforce the law and that results in jeopardizing innocent citizens," and questions regarding them are "fair game."
Jackson will face questions from the committee as the hearings continue Tuesday.

Arnold Schwarzenegger Set to Star in New Spy Series
Elliot Nash, 8 Sep 2020 | News
(Insert overused Arnold Schwarzeneggar quote here) The Terminator, the Governator, and everyone's favourite Austrian bodybuilder is taking a break from the big screen to take part in his very own TV series about a globe-trotting spy on CBS.
As reported by Deadline, Skydance Television is developing an original hourlong series headlined by the star of Conan the Barbarian. The series is expected to tour the globe, with a father (Schwarzenegger) and daughter at the center of the story. Expected to be offered to streaming platforms shortly, preliminary casting is also underway for the role of the daughter.

— Skydance (@Skydance) August 31, 2020
Being his the first significant venture into scripted television, Arnold will have to leave behind his stint on Celebrity Apprentice and join creator Nick Santora for the upcoming TV series. Coming as part of his overall deal with Skydance Television, Santora is producing the untitled series alongside another CBS property Scorpion.
Joining them as executive producers will be David Ellison, Dana Goldberg, and Bill Bost. With Arnold's name all over the credits, we're sure this one is gonna be another epic action fest.
Coming well after his titular role in last year's Terminator: Dark Fate, Arnold will be starring in the upcoming Kung Fury II: The Movie, and is also expected to reprise his role in in the Twins sequel Triplets with co-star Danny DeVito. Eddie Murphy is also set to join in for the sequel. Honestly, we just want to see the sequel to Junior, or better yet, The Last Action Hero.
While details are slim on what to expect from the new series, this writer hopes it mimics the genius of James Cameron's True Lies; the peak of 90s action movies. They better hurry up with production though, because our horse is getting tired.

Salary History Bans Laws Expand Across US
In August 2016, Massachusetts was the first state to pass a law preventing employers from asking job candidates about their salary history in an interview. Massachusetts also imposed a ban on employer conduct during the employer-employee relationship, making it illegal for an employer to require employees to refrain from discussing or disclosing their wages, benefits or other compensation. The new salary history ban laws are being enacted in certain cities and states to help reduce the wage gap between men and women workers. According to an American Association of University Women study, the pay gap between men and women starts at college graduation even when the course of study is the same. The organization found on average, women who work full time earn about 80 cents for every dollar a full-time male worker earns. The wage gap persists across all racial and ethnic groups and is found in every state and has been going on for decades.
New Salary History Ban Laws
Since 2016, seven other states and cities have passed salary history banning legislation. Some of these laws have gone into effect, while others will be enacted in the next few years. Each of the cities and states who have passed enacted banning salary history legislation all have a common goal of erasing the pay gap, but each state has unique provisions to their laws. Below are a few examples of the new laws:
The salary history law in Delaware (House Bill 1) was signed on June 14th and will go into effect December 2017. The law prohibits salary-based screening of job applicants where prior compensation must satisfy certain minimum or maximum criteria. The law allows for the confirmation of salary history information after a job offer has been made and compensation terms have been determined.
Oregon's Equal Pay Act (House Bill 2005) was signed into law on June 1st and went into effect in September. However, employers cannot be sued for violated pay history violations until January 2019 and won't face punitive damages until 2024. The law is similar to other state's salary laws but takes discrimination further. The Oregon Equal Pay Act expands the state's existing equal pay provisions from gender-based bias to discrimination based on race, color, religion, sexual orientation, national origin, marital status, disability, age or veteran status. The law in Oregon states that pay differences are permitted if they exist due to seniority systems, merit systems, travel, education, training and other factors.
Philadelphia's Fair Practices Ordinance (Bill No. 160840) bans pre-employment salary history inquiries, prohibits reliance on salary history in determining compensation for a new employee and makes it unlawful to retaliate against a prospective employee for failing to comply with any wage history inquiry. The ordinance was supposed to go into effect in May, but it has been put on hold pending a legal challenge by the Philadelphia Chamber of Commerce.
As of October 31, 2017, New York City will have a new law that prohibits employers in New York City from asking about, relying on or verifying a job applicant's salary history during the hiring process. The new law amends the NYC Human Rights Law and makes any violation of the law an "unlawful discriminatory practice." The new law allows employers to discuss with an applicant the proposed or anticipated salary for a position as well as the candidate's salary expectations. Employers also can consider an employee's salary history if the applicant's disclosure is made voluntarily. The law does not prohibit an employer from considering the prior salary history of a current employee who is seeking an internal transfer or promotion.
The New York City Commission on Human Rights published an FAQ guidance on the law specifically mentioning background screening. The law prohibits employers from not only asking about salary history from an applicant or prior employer, but also via public records or background checks. If an employer accidentally uncovers information about an applicant's salary history when conducting a background check (or otherwise), the employer may not rely on that information in determining what compensation to offer the applicant.
California is the 8th state and /or local government to prohibit inquiries into an applicant's salary history. Assembly Bill 168 enacts Labor Code Section 432.3, which makes it unlawful for California employers to ask job applicants about their salary history, including benefits and/or other compensation information. An employer could be held liable if they ask about salary history when interviewing, extending an offer or deciding how much to pay applicants. If an applicant voluntarily provides their salary history, an employer may consider the information but should do so with great care to avoid any hint of impropriety which could lead to a potential claim. Under the law, employers are also required to give applicants the pay scare for a position upon request. The city of San Francisco recently passed a similar salary ban ordinance with will go into effect on July 1, 2018. The San Francisco law also prevents employers from releasing a current or former employee's salary without consent.
Due to the growing trend of local and state legislatures enacting similar laws, employers who have offices in multiple states should consider making company-wide changes regarding salary history inquiries during the hiring process. Employers should consult with legal counsel to review and revise all hiring documents employment applications, background check forms, or any other forms used during the hiring process to ensure that there are no inquiries regarding salary history. HR teams, recruiters and hiring managers who conduct interviews of applicants will need to be trained on the implications of the new laws.
It is imperative to stay up-to-date on the latest human resources and background screening trends, laws and compliance standards. Sterling is here to help with your background screening and onboarding needs. For more information about our background screening capabilities, download our Background Screening 101 eBook today.

Confidential: Surveilling Black Lives Matter
Fault Lines investigates the scope and impact of police and FBI surveillance of black activists in the US.
15 Nov 2017 13:56 GMT Black Lives Matter, United States, Racism, Privacy & Surveillance, FBI
Rodney Barnette grew up in a segregated United States. He was drafted to go to Vietnam at the age of 21 and returned a year later, wounded in the line of duty.
After his return he joined the Black Panther Party, a civil rights movement that demanded an end to police brutality and equal rights to housing and employment. Like many other members of the group, Barnette was unaware that the FBI spied on him for years.
"Despite the fact that my dad had served in Vietnam and he is taking care of his family and is just a regular citizen, this information is being collected because he's considered an enemy by his own government," says his artist daughter Sadie Barnette.
We are going through a period where police are being trained, have been trained, to see Black Lives Matter and the Movement for Black Lives as a "terrorist" threat. I think that that's absolutely carrying out in terms of the level of surveillance that's happening.
Brandi Collins, Color of Change
There is a long history of government surveillance of black civil rights groups in the US.
It was supposed to have ended in the 1970s, but today there is a similar threat to Black Lives Matter (BLM), a movement fighting to end systemic violence against black people.
What started spontaneously in late 2014 as a protest around the shooting of unarmed Michael Brown, bled into cities across the country where other black men and women were being killed by police. A simple hashtag became a rallying cry: #blacklivesmatter.
As the movement grew, some organisers began to feel under watch, so they filed freedom of information requests with the New York Police Department to obtain surveillance records related to BLM. But the NYPD refused.
"The greater goal ... is to cover up the extent of their political use of their police powers to oppose Black Lives Matter. Because when they undertake surveillance of Black Lives Matter, this is not law enforcement activity. Black Lives Matter is not breaking laws," says Dave Thompson, who represents some of the organisers against the NYPD.
Alex Vitale, a professor at Brooklyn College who has researched political policing for years, explains that "the history of political policing is a history of the surveillance of individuals and organisations based on their political beliefs, not on their criminal behaviour."
For organisers of BLM, the threat of surveillance is a reminder of what happened to their parents' generation. And it's just recently that people like Rodney Barnette have been able to see the extent of that monitoring.
Fault Lines reporter Femi Oke went to Oakland, California, to better understand the history of surveillance and to see how far the government can go when its powers remain unchecked.

Hyperthyroidism means your thyroid gland is too active. This tiny gland is found in your neck. An overactive thyroid gland makes too much thyroid hormone. This makes your metabolism work at a faster rate.
Graves' disease. This is an autoimmune disorder. It is the most common cause of hyperthyroidism. It happens when an antibody overstimulates the thyroid. This condition is most often found in young to middle-aged women. It also tends to run in families.
Toxic nodular goiter. This condition happens when 1 or more lumps (nodules) of the thyroid gland become too active. Health experts don't know what causes this to happen.
Thyroiditis. It occurs when the thyroid becomes irritated. It temporarily causes the thyroid to be overactive. The thyroid then often becomes underactive.
Who is at risk for hyperthyroidism?
You consume too much iodine. This can happen if you eat a lot of iodine-rich foods or take too much medicine that has this chemical.
What are the symptoms of hyperthyroidism?
These symptoms may look like other health problems. Always see your healthcare provider for a diagnosis.
Blood tests. They can measure the amount of thyroid hormone and thyroid stimulating hormone in your blood.
Thyroid ultrasound. This test can see if your thyroid gland has any nodules.
Thyroid scan. This test uses a radioactive substance to make an image of the thyroid.
Medicine. It can help lower the level of thyroid hormones in the blood.
Radioactive iodine. It comes in the form of a pill or liquid. It can help slow down how much thyroid hormones are made.
Surgery. You may need to have all or part of your thyroid removed.
Beta blockers. These medicines block the action of the thyroid hormone on the body. That helps with rapid heart rate and palpitations.
Tell your healthcare provider if your symptoms get worse or you have new symptoms. If you are a woman of childbearing age and want to become pregnant, talk with your provider first.
Hyperthyroidism means your thyroid gland is too active. This tiny gland is found in your neck. If it is overactive, it makes too much thyroid hormone. Your body's metabolism then begins to work at a faster rate.
This condition can be caused by Graves' disease, toxic nodular goiter, thyroiditis, and taking too much thyroid medicine.
Symptoms may include nervousness, irritability, extra sweating (perspiration), and fine, brittle hair.
Treatment may include medicine, radioactive iodine, surgery, or beta-blocking medicine.

Sanders supporters jeer as Cuomo picked to lead DNC delegation
By JIMMY VIELKIND
ALBANY — A chorus of howls erupted at a Democratic Party meeting on Tuesday when officials loyal to Gov. Andrew Cuomo nominated him to chair the Empire State's delegation to next month's Democratic National Convention.
The uproar was sparked by supporters of Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, who won about 42 percent of the vote in New York's April 19 primary and have been calling for respect during the convention.
They simmered last month in Saratoga Springs, as a slate of delegates was formally nominated but the formal proceedings had the hue of Hillary Clinton, who is backed by Cuomo and the rest of the state's elected establishment.
On Tuesday, Buffalo Mayor Byron Brown nominated Cuomo to lead the delegation during a pre-convention gathering at a union hall in Manhattan. There were immediate howls from Sanders supporters when Mike Reich, the Democratic State Committee's longtime secretary, ignored shouted calls for additional nominations, people at the gathering told POLITICO New York.
"There was yelling in the back, but he shouted over it," said Ben Yee, a Sanders delegate who is also secretary of the Manhattan Democratic Committee. "The front half of the room raised its hand. He said all opposed, and then the back half of the room raised its hand. Then there was a lot of booing and shouting. From there it degraded. People sort of went to get the food. They gave up."
Yee said there had been a huddle of Sanders supporters before the meeting got under way to discuss strategy.
"What was agreed was that we would request an up or down vote, so people could register their discontent — and there would be a number generated," he said. "People wanted to have their votes counted."
Most delegates settled down for a PowerPoint presentation about the logistics of attending the convention, Yee said.
Basil Smikle, the party's executive director, said in a statement that members of the Sanders delegation "were informed weeks ago of our nominating slate, which was voted upon today in an open meeting per the process laid out on the state committee's bylaws."
Smikle said Sanders' representatives were also provided information on the process and the format of the meeting.
"Nominations were open to the floor, and then closed once none were offered," the statement said. "It is clear this primary has generated a lot of energy and enthusiasm. That's a good thing, and its what's needed to ensure Donald Trump is defeated and Hillary Clinton becomes our next president."

Der indische Film "Kesari" basiert auf dem Kampf um Saragarhi vom 12. September 1897. Das CinemaxX zeigt den Film auf Hindi mit deutschen Untertiteln.
The year is 1897 and the mighty British empire having conquered most of India, is now trying to infiltrate Afghanistan. Fort Saragarhi, in the NWFP (North Western Frontier Province) is a small communication post used to relay messages between two major military forts - Gullistan and Lockhardt. To be posted at Saragarhi is no matter of pride for the newly formed Sikh regiment of the British Indian Army. Marked in color KESARI (saffron), the Sikhs symbolize valor and pride and to die doing one's duty. Ishar Singh (AKSYAY KUMAR), a proud warrior who prefers to live by his community rules, is often found in direct conflict with the orders of his British officers. As a punishment, Ishar is sent to Saragarhi where a bunch of 20 unruly, undisciplined Sikh soldiers await him. And it is this bunch of cheeky but lovable rouges that Ishar leads into the battle when an army of 10,000 Pathans turns up at Saragarhi on the 12th of Sept 1897.It's now 21 Sikhs vs 10,000Afghans on the battlefield.
KESARI the true story of one of the bravest battles ever fought –the Battle Of Saragrahi.

Khashoggi showcases moral trilemma of big business

Total Chief Executive Patrick Pouyanné attended the Future Investment Initiative held in Saudi Arabia on Oct. 23-25. CEOs from a range of companies including BlackRock, Société Générale, and JPMorgan withdrew from the investment conference after the killing of Jamal Khashoggi, a prominent critic of Saudi rulers, at the kingdom's Istanbul consulate.
"I am convinced that an 'empty chairs at the table' strategy serves no useful purpose, especially when it comes to respect for human rights," Pouyanné said on Oct. 22.
Total said on Oct. 26 that third-quarter net operating income rose to $4.5 billion, up 49 percent from a year earlier, helped by a doubling of exploration and production net operating income to $2.9 billion.
The French energy group said adjusted net income rose 48 percent over the same period to $4 billion, and this month announced a $9 billion petrochemicals project in cooperation with Saudi Aramco.
HSBC and Credit Suisse sent the biggest team of bankers to the Future Investment Initiative, IFR reported on Oct. 24.
Total shares were trading at 50.3 euros, as of 0805 GMT on Oct. 26, down 2.2 percent.

New Algoma Steel boss details $300 million in capital improvements
Since January 2018, the Sault steelmaker has hired 368 full-time employees
Jun 25, 2019 2:57 PM By: David Helwig
Michael McQuade, Algoma Steel's chief executive officer, spoke today at the Sault Ste. Marie Chamber of Commerce's 130th anniversary luncheon at the Marconi Event Centre. David Helwig/SooToday
Michael McQuade, the former Stelco president appointed in March as chief executive officer of Algoma Steel Inc., today released new details of his company's $300 million in local capital improvments.
"I'm pleased to announce that we are in the midst of some momentous initiatives right now," McQuade told the Sault Ste. Marie Chamber of Commerce's 130th anniversary luncheon this afternoon at the Marconi Event Centre.
McQuade said the three main projects will take two years to complete at a cost of about $300 million dollars.
"First off, we're building a second ladle metallurgy furnace. This is a steel refining facility where we use electromagnetic stirring to refine the chemistry and heat up the steel to the optimal temperature for casting," he said.
"We currently only have one ladle-met furnace and it's become a significant bottleneck in our process."
"As we produce more advanced grades of steel, we need more advanced refining capacity and are unable to refine the advanced grades using our older traditional, chemical-refined facility."
"This new facility will deliver another 100,000 tons a year and greatly improve our ability to add more value-added grades. The project team is in place. Construction is underway," McQuade told chamber members.
Algoma Steel's second cornerstone project is an upgrade to its flagship direct strip production complex (DSPC).
"This is the facility where we go from liquid steel to a finished hot-roll coiled sheet in approximately 30 minutes. This complex is the only one of its kind in Canada and reflects the state-of-the-art technology that's being build around the world."
"Current capacity of this facility is about 2.1 million tons per annum and we're taking it to 2.4 million tons."
New DSPC segments were commissioned the first week of this month and McQuade says they're performing "exceptionally well."
"We're adding more water cooling capability, more roll grinders and other upgraded elements to increase the volume and improve the reliability and increase our grade capability off of this mill."
The third major capital project underway at the Sault steelmaker is a modernization of the plate mill.
"Our plate mill is the only one in Canada, unique in that it's a combination of plate and strip complex, which gives us the ability to flex production between those two products, depending on customer demand," McQuade said.
The three large projects and other smaller but important ones have been funded with $150 million in loans and grants from the federal and provincial governments.
"Having all of these projects on the go simultaneously is more than we can handle on our own, so we are drawing on external expertise and resources here in Sault Ste. Marie and across the globe."
"It's a great opportunity for our employees and an exciting time for both the company and the community," McQuade said.
Since January 2018, he said the company has hired 368 full-time employees.
"That doesn't include our summer students. On average, about 20 per cent of that group have been hired from outside the community."
McQuade said his company is helping Mayor Chrisitian Provenzano and FutureSSM build the Sault's population to 100,000 by 2037.
Sault Ste. Marie Chamber of Commerce was founded by 40 local businessmen on July 25, 1889.
At today's 130th anniverary celebration, the organization unveiled a new chamber website with associated app, member management system and member-posted profiles.

India is currently the world's fastest-growing large economy. India represents a sizable and dynamic market, with an annual GDP growth rate of around 7% and is an important player in global economic governance. India is an important trade and investment partner for the EU.
The EU is India's largest trading partner, accounting for €85 billion worth of trade in goods in 2017 or 13.1% of total India trade, ahead of China (11.4%) and the USA (9.5%).
India is the EU's 9th largest trading partner, accounting for 2.3% of EU's total trade in goods, well behind the USA (16.9%) and China (15.3%).
Trade in goods between the EU and India almost doubled in the last decade.
Trade in services between the EU and India increased from €23 billion in 2010 to €29 billion in 2016. India is now the 4th largest service exporter to the EU and the 6th largest destination for EU services exports.
The EU's share in foreign investment inflows to India more than doubled from 8% to 18% in the last decade, making the EU the first foreign investor in India.
EU foreign direct investment stocks in India amounted to €73 billion in 2016, which is significant but well way below EU foreign investment stocks in China (€178 billion).
Some 6,000 EU companies are present in India, providing directly 1.7 million jobs and indirectly 5 million jobs in a broad range of sectors.
Indian companies invested over €50 billion in Europe since 2000.
Negotiations for a comprehensive Free Trade Agreement (FTA) between the EU and India were launched in 2007 and suspended in 2013 due to a gap in the level of ambition between the EU and India. The EU remains committed to working towards an ambitious, comprehensive and balanced agreement FTA with India that responds to each side's key interests and is a win-win.
The EU continues engaging with India to ensure that such an agreement is economically meaningful, delivering real new market openings in all sectors to both sides, contains a solid rules-based component, and includes a comprehensive trade and sustainable development chapter, notably in order to deal with social and environmental impacts. Ensuring a high level of investment protection in order to remain an attractive destination for new investments is also a key dimension.
A key EU objective in its trade relations with India is to work towards a sound, transparent, open, non-discriminatory and predictable regulatory and business environment for European companies trading with or investing in India, including the protection of their investments and intellectual property. The aim is to contribute to unlocking the untapped potential of two-way trade between the EU and India.
Currently, India's trade regime and regulatory environment remains relatively restrictive. Technical barriers to trade (TBT), sanitary and phyto-sanitary (SPS) measures, deviation from international standards and agreements, as well as discrimination based on legislative or administrative measures by India affect a wide range of sectors, including goods, services, investment and public procurement.
The EU uses all available channels and fora to work with India to ensure fair market access and predictable investment conditions, as well as to promote the full respect by both sides of their multilateral obligations under the World Trade Organization (WTO). A key instrument in this respect is the EU-India Trade Sub-Commission established under the 1994 Cooperation and Partnership Agreement between the EU and India, and which meets annually. Furthermore, a number of technical working groups have been established to discuss a broad range of trade-related issues such as SPS and TBT, agriculture, animal and plant health, steel, etc.
The EU and India also share an interest in sustaining a rules-based multilateral trading system, with the World Trade Organisation (WTO) at its centre. While the multilateral trading system has been instrumental in integrating the global economy and helping to prevent protectionism, it is confronted with a serious crisis. The EU seeks India's constructive engagement in addressing global trade challenges in the WTO and strengthening a rules-based multilateral trading system.
More information on the EU-India strategic partnership, including in the area of trade and investment, can be found on the new EU Strategy for India adopted on 20 November 2018 and the related Council conclusions.


ROCKINGHAM – Chances are that you've read the statistics about heart disease. You may even know someone who has been diagnosed.
But do you really have all of the facts you need to protect yourself?
You can find out on Feb. 21, by joining physicians from Richmond and Moore counties for a special education session called "Taking Care of Your Heart." Sponsored by the FirstHealth Richmond Memorial Hospital Foundation, the event will be held from 6 to 7:30 p.m. in the cafeteria at FirstHealth Richmond Memorial Hospital. Dinner will be provided.
Heart disease is the number one killer in Richmond County, affecting both men and women. But what exactly is heart disease? Are there certain signs or symptoms? How is it treated and can it be prevented?
During a panel discussion, medical professionals will provide information on the warning signs of heart disease as well as options for treatment. A question-and-answer session will follow the formal program.
Steven T. Alexander, M.D., FirstHealth Richmond Family Medicine. Dr. Alexander is a family practice physician who received his medical training at Kasturba Medical College in Karnataka, India. He completed his residency at the University of Texas Health Science Center.
Kimberley Lingler, M.D., FirstHealth Richmond Family Medicine. Dr. Lingler graduated from Temple University in Pennsylvania before completing a residency at Washington Hospital.
Robert C. Parris, M.D., Sandhills Cardiology. A board certified cardiologist, Dr. Parris is a graduate of the University of West Indies, Jamaica. He did his internship and residency at Harlem Hospital Center in New York and currently provides care at offices in Rockingham and Laurinburg.
John F. Krahnert Jr., M.D., FirstHealth Cardiovascular & Thoracic Center. Dr. Krahnert earned his medical degree from the Wake Forest School of Medicine in Winston-Salem and completed his residency at the University of Kentucky.

NIU undergrad's exhibit offers historical look at student engagement
February 18, 2019 Sarah Quinn CHHSnews, Faculty & Staff, First-Generation, Homepage, Students
Oriana Flores isn't quite sure how to spend her downtime these days after spending hours upon hours sorting through old photos and article clippings to capture how NIU is "Creating Environments that Matter."
Praised by all who've seen it, Flores' eye-catching exhibit offers a historical look at how students have been engaged at NIU from the early 1900s through today. The research work was presented on Thursday, Feb. 7, during a presentation of the results of the National Survey of Student Engagement.
Oriana Flores
It also will be available during the Undergraduate Research and Artistry Day and Community Engagement Showcase on Wednesday, April 17.
After months of work, Flores' final exhibit exceeded expectations, even those of Flores, an undergraduate College of Health and Human Sciences student.
"I cried when I first saw it," said 22-year-old Flores, who visited the Regional History Center at NIU several times a week and credits employees there, as well as Marketing and Creative Services and Renique Kersh, associate vice provost for Student Engagement and Success, with helping her put it all together.
"Everyone was just saying how proud they were of me, and this is an incredible experience," she said. "I don't think it's sunk it yet, what I did. It definitely took a village."
Flores had worked with Kersh on another research project last year as part of Research Rookies. Over the summer, Kersh asked her if she'd like to be involved in a project to help illustrate the importance of student engagement, providing an illustrative example of the need to take the results of the National Survey of Student Engagement seriously.
She jumped at the offer, mainly because of how much she enjoys working with Kersh, but also out of interest in the topic.
Flores said she first spent time reading articles to understand exactly what student engagement means and to learn best how to represent it.
"I think it's important for people to see that engagement is not just research," she said. "It's so much more, it's Visual and Performing Arts, Athletics, engaging with faculty, being in student organizations."
Kersh supported Oriana's assertion, noting, "What a gift it is to be in a profession where we can provide students with experiences that spark their interests, encourage the creative and analytical process and support significant learning."
Flores worked earnestly to find the best photos, preferring candid shots and old article clippings from the Northern Star to illustrate the topic.
The experience made her feel more connected to NIU than ever before. A 2015 graduate of Chicago High School for the Arts, Flores transferred to NIU from City Colleges of Chicago.
"College was always in the stars," she said, but it wasn't an easy path.
Being a first-generation student means, "I'm not only going to school; my family's going to school," said Flores, whose dream is to become a family therapist in a hospital setting to help the families of children diagnosed with terminal illness.
Joining Research Rookies was one of the best choices she made, she said, as it gave her a sense of belonging. She'd eventually like to see the exhibit put on permanent display on campus.
"I would love to leave some sort of legacy here at Northern Illinois University's campus," she said.
Flores has done more than to leave a legacy, Kersh said. "She has been a lighthouse illuminating the return on investment that comes when we create environments that matter for all students, faculty and staff," she said.

Q: The psychology of downvoting others without telling them why! I have been active on different SO/SE forums for quite a while. I have rarely downvoted anyone. I usually try to

*

*let the person know what is wrong with their question/answer first and help them learn how they need to improve it

*edit the post myself if the person doesn't know how to do it.

*report/flag the post if the person doesn't consider the feedback

*downvote if the OP ignores all above issues

However, I have barely seen the same behavior from other SO users. Consider this post for example. There I have asked a question about compiling software on FreeDOS and I didn't ask it on SuperUser because I speculated (wrongly) it will include some programing. I immediately recived some downvotes and flags which led me to write a P.S. :

Unfortunately, the SO is becoming a very toxic environment again. I have spent quite some time doing a lot of research on this question and tried to format it as nicely as possible. But users come and downvote the post and flag it to be closed without even explaining why! This is not right. We are here to help each other not to silence one another. If this question has any issues and you think it deserves downvote, please give me a chance to understand what it is by leaving at least a comment!

As soon as I wrote this I experienced a tsunami of downvotes and flags on my posts and former posts! someone even took the liberty to edit my post and remove this criticize. So here are the points I want to discuss:

*

*what exactly happens in the mind of a person causing him/her to downvote others without giving them the chance to learn why? and why when this behavior is criticized they tend to do it even worse? Has there ever been a psychological study on people's behavior on social media and how they try to punish/silence others?

*Why SO/SE still has the feature of anonymous downvote without explanation. When there is a flag option what is the benefit of having downvote at all?

*what is the benefit of having so many SE forums when SO has tags? How flagging a post as off-topic and closing/removing it helps SO community?

*why there is no option to move questions across these SO/SE forums if being "on-topic" is so important?

In my humble opinion, these are really important issues we need to fix if we want to have a healthy community. Thanks for your support in advance.

A:
I have been active on different SO/SE forums for quite a while.

The sites here aren't forums, they're tightly curated Q/A resources, more akin to Wikipedia than a social network.

However, I have barely seen the same behavior from other SO users.
  Consider this post for example. There I have asked a question about
  compiling software on FreeDOS and I didn't ask it on SuperUser because
  I speculated (wrongly) it will include some programing.

The question was closed, and the close message gives a very useful pointer for you, namely:

"Questions about general computing hardware and software are off-topic
  for Stack Overflow unless they directly involve tools used primarily
  for programming. You may be able to get help on Super User."

Which tells you quite a bit about what went wrong with your post. Downvotes don't come with explicit messages, and this has been brought up and declined more then a hundred times already (no, really), but they do have a description on the privilege page and the arrow:
This question does not show any research effort; it is unclear or not useful
From which you can extrapolate quite a bit.

As soon as I wrote this I experienced a tsunami of downvotes and flags
  on my posts and former posts! someone even took the liberty to edit my
  post and remove this criticize. So here are the points I want to
  discuss:

That's regrettable but also understandable. In your message you basically accuse people who donate their free time and expertise to keep stack overflow clean of refuse and off topic questions of being toxic. Being that this is tagged with psychology, one of the universals of human psychology is that people dislike being accused of things they find reprehensible but haven't done. It''s therefore unsurprising that editing such a paragraph into the question would draw negative attention.

what exactly happens in the mind of a person causing him/her to
  downvote others without giving them the chance to learn why? and why
  when this behavior is criticized they tend to do it even worse? Has
  there ever been a psychological study on people's behavior on social
  media and how they try to punish/silence others?

When you curate posts on Stack Overflow, you see a lot of bad posts. Like, 90% of what you see in the close votes or new posts queue is bad or off topic. The strain of explaining the same thing to 1.000 people making the same mistake day after day makes people curt in their responses. The SE system has mitigated this by reducing human interaction: close reasons are largely canned, and commenting about your downvotes is discouraged.
I disagree that this has anything to do with silencing or punishing others, that is your interpretation into it from not knowing exactly how it works. This here site is not a social media platform or forum, it is a (supposed to be) tightly curated Q/A resource. You wouldn't accuse people of silencing others on wikipedia because your contribution to an article got rejected, for instance. It's in the same vein here.
Regarding for why making wild accusations draws additional negative attention, see above.

Why SO/SE still has the feature of anonymous downvote without
  explanation. When there is a flag option what is the benefit of having
  downvote at all?

This topic has been discussed, the idea rejected, and the topic discussed hundreds of times on Stack Overflow and on here. So much so, there's a FAQ dedicated to listing the arguments. You'll note that FAQ has 60 undeleted linked questions alone.

why there is no option to move questions across these SO/SE forums if
  being "on-topic" is so important?

There is, in limited circumstances, it's called migration. It's not often used, because usually questions have to be reworded / reworked significantly anyways to fit on the scope of another SE site, and usually these questions are poor to start.

Has there ever been a psychological study on people's behavior on social media and how they try to punish/silence others?

Depends on the post. I personally tend to do the "no research effort" downvotes for questions, as well as the absolutely terrible ones. I downvote mostly for active harmfulness in answers.
That said, the tone, completeness and general interestingness of a question all play a part.

*

*Why SO/SE still has the feature of anonymous downvote without explanation. When there is a flag option what is the benefit of having downvote at all?

A flag requires a mod to take a look. Votes are anonymous because people takes votes badly, but its a 'simple' organic way to handle what folks feel of a post's usefulness or otherwise. Its kinda how we've done things over the last decade, and is a fundamental part of the SE model.
Deletions are not anonymous, and I've occationally had folks wander over to my blog and demand answers. Some folks might do the same for close votes. There's a potential for some folks to rachet up the toxicity over it.
Personally where possible comments suggesting improvements are always useful but it requires someone to feel putting in the time and effort to do so has broader value.

*

*what is the benefit of having so many SE forums when SO has tags? How flagging a post as off-topic and closing/removing it helps SO community?

Not all SE sites would fit into SO. I don't see gardening questions finding a home there.  SO, SU and SF (the original trilogy in 4 parts along with the initial incarnation of MSO, now MSE) each had their own target audiences and very different cultures. More so now with the other SE sites - just cause there's scope overlap doesn't mean sites handle things differently

Why there is no option to move questions across these SO/SE forums if being "on-topic" is so important?

We have migrations, though folks often err on the site of caution. The advantage of re-asking is you can re-jig a question for the new site. In any case though, its useful to spend a little time getting to know the site, and figuring out what works.

We vote on posts to tell the world whether the post is useful or not. That it functions as a signal to the poster is merely a side effect. There are a limited number of people who are both willing and able to answer questions and if we direct them to questions that they can answer that's a far better use of their time than having them wade through piles of questions that they can't answer.
There's no punishment here. The poster can use that signal to improve their question. Perhaps they will now read the help centre or do more research on how to write a good question. These are all materials we provide here that many posters ignore in their headlong race to get their question, in whatever state it is in, in front of any audience they can.

Why SO/SE still has the feature of anonymous downvote without explanation. When there is a flag option what is the benefit of having downvote at all?

Since voting is for the many and not the one poster, the many don't need to know who voted, simply the aggregate. Flagging is for posts that we don't think are recoverable at all and need to be immediately deleted such as spam.

what is the benefit of having so many SE forums when SO has tags? How flagging a post as off-topic and closing/removing it helps SO community?

As regards to different sites, I can't see all of the people who are active on cooking or vegetarianism or diy or many of the couple of hundred sites we have now being interested in Stack Overflow. Nor should computer experts necessarily be given rights to close cooking etc posts.
Closing posts helps answerers to posts they can answer and gives the poster a signal that they need to do something about the post to get it shipshape. The former is the important signal here.

why there is no option to move questions across these SO/SE forums if being "on-topic" is so important?

If you want to move a post, delete it and re ask it. Many other sites don't want to be in the migration list because they believe they will get a flood of poor quality questions from Stack Overflow. The migration list has been generated over the years from migrations that end up being useful.
If you think of things from the point of view all the people who use this site to get answers rather than an individual question you'll see much more clearly why things are the way they are.

A: Look at the screenshot taken from this five-year-old Stack Overflow post: Do users upvote out of sympathy, and how should that be addressed?

The OP writes, [emphasis in bold mine]

How can one hope to improve the quality of questions on Stack Overflow when people upvote crap like this?

Who in their right mind would upvote such a ridiculously awful question?

*

*Does anyone disagree that the entire premise has a belligerent tone?

No doubt the OP was expressing their frustration and exasperation with the system. Not with users who upvote bad questions but with the system that ALLOWS users to express their judgement whether that be negative or positive. The OP was incredulous that someone would even dare upvote such an appalling question and asks how Stack Overflow can hope to improve quality while users are misusing the system.

"Except that's the problem. Someone will [write the code], and people will keep coming back asking terrible questions like this one."*

I thought the OP made a few valid points until I looked at the screenshot more carefully; seven downvotes in less than 3 minutes. Three minutes. How many other downvotes did that question receive before it was eventually closed [if it was]? The overall message is startlingly clear, the community strongly disapproved of the question but one user didn't, they chose to upvote it. The OP saw fit to publicly condemn  that action. Luckily for the upvoter, their identity was protected by the system, the OP couldn't name and shame the user but all the same, they wanted to know why a "crappy" question was upvoted.
Sometimes even the downvoters want to know why a post was upvoted!
Maybe the question wasn't so awful? It lacked effort and research but when someone is a beginner they look for help and they came to SO.
After spending six years on Stack Exchange, I have come to the conclusion, that the voting system is inherently flawed. Users may systematically downvote every off-topic, non-researched or disagreeable  question that is posted but the flood of low-quality (i.e. crap) off-topic questions will continue to swamp Stack Overflow, Mathematics, Super User, EL&U etc.
Unexplained downvotes have done nothing to prevent bad questions from appearing in the first place. That responsibility lies with the developers, when they find a way to impede the continual flow of bad questions, veteran users will, finally, be more motivated, more helpful and friendlier to newcomers (aka new contributors) via votes and comments, and the volume of downvotes that we presently see on Meta and on SO should decrease dramatically. Until then...
The fault lies with the system not with the users.

A: There can be many reasons to downvote without a comment.
The first and most important: sometimes you don't have the nerves to explain to the OP, without being considered an insult. For example, if it is clearly visible, that the OP could write correctly, but he intentionally doesn't even try to. Saying to him, where should he go with this attitude, would violate the Code of Conduct. But silently voting him down is okay. It might have a psychological effect, too: by allowing him to think about, why he could have got the down, could give him ultimately a much stronger motive to improve, as a flamewar.
However, not this is the typical problem.
The main problem is that many people, as I understood, have the habit of shoot his daily 40 "rockets" to questions. They are doing it every day.
It is very visible, because using the site as it is intended - searching for answers to our questions - simply doesn't lead us so many bad posts. The only way what I can imagine, to have many times more downs than ups, if one intentionally looks for downvotable posts.
I don't know, why are they doing it. Maybe a psychologist could decode them, or at least they could give some help to accelerate your own research.
My current best hyphothese is that they are executing some gamification algorithm, i.e. they are essentially playing a game, where their goals are very different from the goals of the voting system (what is to separate bad posts from the good ones, helping the search/indexing system to give good posts to the visitors). For example, they might want to decrease the count of happy programmers of the world. Or they might vote their friends up, everybody other down (sect mentality). Obviously no one explained it clearly, but searching for "rep farming" in newer, and for "rep whore" in older meta posts, could reveal at least their "explanations".
I checked your SO activity, and my opinion is that your posts are okay, and your skills make you a worthy contributor. You clearly don't deserve the downs. However, you don't get too much. Well, I would suggest to formulate your titles as round questions, instead of your current sentence fragments.
A possible symptomatic handling of the problem, if you try to compensate them: give ups easily, and give downs only to the real crap. It won't help you, but you can make the site a more friendly one.
Another possible workaround is using secondary account for your questions.
If you have a deeply and unfairly downvoted question, you can also ask the team to detach it from your account. I personally never did it, but all those who did, said that it happened seamlessly.

My answers to your other sub-questions:

Why SO/SE still has the feature of anonymous downvote without explanation. When there is a flag option what is the benefit of having downvote at all?

The SE f*ly needs your activities. They need you. They need your votes, they need your comments, and most heavily, they need your answers. They are using the votes to show their best face to the google, and to the visitors. If they would harden voting, they would have much lesser information to tune their indexing.

What is the benefit of having so many SE forums when SO has tags? How flagging a post as off-topic and closing/removing it helps SO community?
  Why there is no option to move questions across these SO/SE forums if being "on-topic" is so important?

All the SE sites should run from a common database, with loosely coupled tag system. As I've first found a different SE site after the SO, what was the ServerFault, I've thought that the questions are coming from the same database. Only they are somehow filtered for ServerFault topics and not for SO topics. It was simply so obvious, that so should the site network work. And my this opinion did not change since then.
However, the SE works on a much more... well, say, simpler way. The SE sites are entirely different databases, with zero connection to each other. Later some message passing system was invented, what was a imho a very bad idea. Instead, the databases should have been unified.
The SE probably has not the developer resource, and also not the intention, to re-develop their site interaction mechanism correctly (with unifying the databases). This is why the question migrations are so hard. They should be so easy than a re-tagging.
Currently, most of the off-topic closed questions are left to oblivion, despite that they could be used to improve their correct site (or to build them together to entirely new sites). I have simply no idea, why the SE gives up this huge power. I have simply no idea. In my opinion, the SE has simply shot himself on the foot with it. My best hyphothese is a big company syndrome, i.e. they might have some internal social inertia, maybe some boss once decided so, and since then no one has the courage to change this bad decision.
They have also a roughy public, although not very advertised explanation. And it is that they want to separate the communities as they can, to protect them from each other.

Dynamometer tests by a major diesel engine manufacturer have proven that SUDDEN LOSS OF COOLANT CAN DESTROY YOUR ENGINE IN 50 SECONDS and it will do so before an overtemperature signal is received. Overtemperature sensors are only capable of sensing excessive coolant temperature caused by clogged radiators, malfunctioning thermostats, failed water pumps, or any other "circulation" problem. Upon loss of coolant, however, these temperature sensors must try to respond to hot air which, being a poor thermal conductor, results in signals that arrive only after the engine is severely damaged.
By monitoring the coolant level in the upper radiator reservoir, the Robertshaw Mini-Tek Model 613 provides a WARNING IN TIME that coolant is being lost and allows corrective action to be taken before overheating and damage can occur.
In like manner, under leaking oil conditions low oil pressure signals are not obtained until the oil pump is starved for oil. Since the oil pump draws liquid from the very bottom of the crankcase pan, these signals arrive only after virtually all oil has been lost. Again! – the damage has already occurred.


Luke Varney has today penned a contract with Ipswich Town until the end of the season.
The popular frontman, who ended last term on loan at Portman Road from Blackburn, is available to make his second debut for the Club and could be involved against former side Derby at the weekend.
The striker, who can also operate out wide, suffered a serious achilles injury during the Play-Off semi-final first leg with Norwich City at Portman Road which has kept him sidelined since May.
However the former Charlton, Leeds and Crewe man has been doing his rehabilitation work at Town and, after featuring in a number of U21 fixtures, has now signed until the end of the season.
Luke will wear the number 42 during his time at Portman Road and an exclusive interview with the forward is available on Ipswich Player HD.
