I got picture of dragon yesterday afternoon at the Oiwake-Shika-Kouen-Park accidentally. It appeared unexpectedly among clouds in the summer sky.
Dragon, they are messenger of law of the cosmos or power of the universe.
This understanding is very unique one from Japan and Eastern world.
He said, "you get on my back".
It was east to west.
Tatuki Narita is very cool violinist recently!
We are going to have a recital of him at end of next month.
I'd gotten a new friend, name is Chyoco-chan.
So she is very cute and wise Chihuahua.
But it is not from Beverly Hills or Mexico! Just heaven!

Sweet Caroline's closed Dec. 28 after operating for more than two decades in Medical Plaza next to NCH North Naples Hospital campus near the intersection of Goodlette-Frank and Immokalee roads.
The local café and bakery was a popular breakfast and lunch venue. The menu included fresh house-made muffins and pastries, omelets, pancakes, soups, salads and a large selection of classic and hot sandwiches on bread made in-house.
The restaurant's last owners, Brenda and Scott Mueller, sold the business after operating the restaurant since September 2014. The Muellers succeeded Laura Lenard, who ran the eatery for six years and now owns Sharky's Pizza in Bonita Springs.
► Stay "In the Know" and save with this introductory offer for new subscribers
"Scott and Brenda have retired. We appreciate your loyalty over the years," reads in part a note posted Jan. 17 on Sweet Caroline's Facebook page.
"Thank you for the memories," Brenda Mueller posted on Sweet Caroline's website.

Locale Eatery is targeted to open next week in the former longtime space of Sweet Caroline's in North Naples. The business will continue as a café and caterer with everything made from scratch but expect new menus for breakfast, brunch and lunch as well as a fresh look inside.
"It's breakfast and lunch and we are doing a lot of baked goods," said Terrence Burney, who will operate Locale Eatery. "We are shooting (to open) for some time mid next week but it's still up in the air right now."
► Keep informed with unlimited digital access for only $9.99 a month for this Presidents' Day special introductory offer for new NDN subscribers
Burney is the boyfriend of Chef Heather Lincoln, who operates Trail Café and Grill on U.S. 41 in North Naples. Trail Café and Locale Eatery are both owned by the Lincoln family but the breakfast-lunch dining concepts will not share menus, Lincoln said.
"It's a different menu. The menu is a little bit smaller," she said. "The take on the dishes will be completely different as well."
Menus for the new eatery list a variety of dishes such as Benedicts, breakfast sandwiches, French toast, shrimp and grits, avocado toast, sandwiches, burgers and a create-your-own salad option. The menu also offers some surprises such as a Belgian waffle topped with crispy duck confit, blueberry compote and a side of spicy maple syrup; a grilled cheese with braised short rib, smoked cheddar, grilled onions and a side of au jus; and lobster mac and cheese made with a four-cheese blend.
Following Sweet Caroline's tradition, expect fresh baked goods such as cinnamon rolls, muffins, cookies, cupcakes, biscuits, croissants and bread. But unlike Caroline's, the new eatery will serve beer and wine as well as wine-based cocktails.
Locale Eatery, 11121 Health Park Blvd., Suite 300, will be open 6 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. Monday through Friday, and 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturdays and Sundays. The café seats about 30 inside and 20 outside. For more information call 239-592-1111.

For many of us, the past few weeks have been a flurry of activities: traveling, visiting, hosting, gift giving, cooking, resolution making, etc. For me, a very blessed time with my family and meaningful conversations with my brother Jesuits guides me along the way.
As I enter 2016, I notice a desire to pause a little more, to take some time of quiet, to let the blessings of Christmas and the New Year sink in, to marinate in the mystery of a God who delights and longs to dwell deeper in me and my relationships. The first reading today speaks six times of remaining or resting in what gives us life.
I am invited to pause and rest in grace. It may not be long, deep, or grand. It is simply encountering the divine in me, in this present moment with its obvious and disguised blessings. Short pauses to welcome grace that opens up greater awareness and meaning. Three times a day makes a difference in my pilgrim path today.
but knowing when to stop?
but learning to live with less?
but resting in God's grace?"
Lord, help me rest more in Your love and care today and focus less on my agendas, expectations or worries.

The precious product of ptfe, known as the smoothest substance, is in the guinness book of world records. Limit "material" section in the record of "minimum friction coefficient" small is: under the heading "ptfe material between dynamic and static friction coefficients reached any solid friction coefficient between the lowest 0.02, the equivalent of wet friction coefficient on the surface of the ice contact".
Low friction coefficient of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) material is well known, in 1949, K.V souter and P.H Thomas in B - L machine measuring friction coefficient of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) material when confirmed: bearing 1 ~ 4 kilograms, sliding speed is 0.1 ~ 10 mm, polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) material of the friction coefficient is 0.04. The friction coefficient reached 0.01 in the case of 1360 kg.
High temperature stability of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) resin material comes from the strong carbon - fluorine keys, and determine the polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) resin material has become a very useful high temperature resistant polymer. Therefore, PTFE resin material remains unchanged at the high temperature limit of almost all other thermal plastics and synthetic rubber. At the same time, compared with other polymers, polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) resin material has a very high melting viscosity in the case of pure pressure and high temperature. Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) resin material has high heat resistance, high melting point, high melting point and self-ignition point, and PTFE resin material can resist high temperature and flame. At normal operating temperature range, polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) rated maximum temperature is 260 ℃, and in this case, it is not hot fission. Within the scope of the observation of 260-360 ℃, weight loss is fairly small, and the loss was due to absorption of a small amount of gas and water in the aggregate. Only under the condition of temperature over 400 ℃, polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) resin material thermal fission became apparent.
Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) resin material can maintain good performance at low temperature. At very low temperature, it can maintain strong impact resistance. Even in low temperature to - 196 ℃, carefully manufacturing specimen remains resilient, it has been proved that polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) resin material above the temperature to 268 ℃ still have use value, and above - 80 ℃ with high plasticity.
As we have observed, the molecular structure of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) resin consists of a chain of carbon atoms covered by fluorine atoms. The fluorine atoms shell to protect the vulnerable to erosion chain of carbon atoms, which made of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) resin material has exposed not react with the solvent in solvent unique stability and resistance to decomposition. Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) materials have little chemical reaction with any known chemical, and can resist corrosive chemicals and solvents even at extremely high temperatures and pressures. In the normal operating temperature range, the resin will not be dissolved and expanded by any solvent. This unique stability comes from the strong carbon - carbon bonds and strong carbon - a combination of fluorine in the key, and almost perfect fluorine atoms on the carbon skeleton chain protection shell and high molecular weight polymer, this structure also have some special properties, such as low coefficient of friction and insoluble.
We have been in Florida for over 20 years and proved that PTFE resin material is transparent to uv light, resistant to oxidation and surface contamination, and is not discoloured or brittle. Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) resin material does not change the visual effects of exposure to infrared to uv spectrum.
Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) resin material has strong resistance to water. It can completely resist water solubility, water infiltration great obstacles, after immersion in water for a long time can still remained stable, in the United States, France and the former Soviet countries such as the experiments of the resistance to water vapor, polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) resin material than almost any known plastic material to steam permeability are all well. Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) resin material has much lower gas permeability than most polymers. Due to the extremely low permeability of PTFE resin, it is widely used in chemical industry excellent shielding resin.
As early as 1946, it was known that polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) had no electric polarity, making it an ideal insulator, or non-conductive. Excellent insulation performance, together with its mechanical strength, chemical and thermal stability makes PTFE a versatile electrical insulator. Since PTFE resin does not absorb water, it can be impregnated in water for a long time without changing its electrical impedance.
Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) fiber and chemical resistance properties of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), low friction coefficient, high wear characteristics of unique and high intensity, the combination of the tough durable fiber structure. The high-porosity fiber structure, such as g-t, can be used in a variety of applications, and has been developed. It is a unique chemical fiber capability that USES the polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) resin.
Over the past 50 years, thousands of tons of PTFE have been produced and applied in a variety of potentially dangerous environments, including many applications that exceed the rated temperature. There is no such thing as the use of PTFE to cause illness and death and injuries.
PTFE has no irritation to the skin. Practice also shows that when swallowed, it is stable without chemical reaction. For 90 days, 25 percent of the fine polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) resin powder was added to the rats' daily food, and no symptoms of poisoning or digestive disorder were found. The same results were found in seven consecutive months of experiments. Because polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) resin polymers do not react with most chemicals, there is little possibility of producing toxic products through chemical reactions. Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) when the temperature was 200 ℃ don't absorb the acid and alkali. It absorbs extremely small amounts of solvents and does not have a large effect on the bonds within the molecule, so it should not be confused with fission.

Robotics How cute does a robot have to be?
How cute does a robot have to be?
dpa Picture Alliance, Markus Thums for WirtschaftsWoche
On this evening, there was little to suggest that it could be dangerous for K5: the robot quietly rolls over a parking lot in Mountain View to patrol at dusk. A white cone with flashing lights, reminiscent of R2-D2 from the movie "Star Wars", in the middle of technology-loving Silicon Valley. Suddenly, however, a drunk rams the robot from the side and knocks it over. The police come to protect him.
K5 got away with a few scratches. At Knightscope, however, the company that builds the safety robot, you are now faced with the question of how a machine has to be created so that humans can get along well with it.
Artificial twin: image of the robot pope Ishiguro.
Patrick Schuch for WirtschaftsWoche
Engineers around the world think they are at the beginning of the robot era. The androids are supposed to help with the care of the elderly, do the shopping, and vacuum the carpet and cook at home. But whether this new era really begins depends not only on powerful chips, sophisticated algorithms and enormous computing power. If industry wants to win people's trust, it must also build robots in such a way that they accept them by their side. Scientists are still faced with many puzzles – and age-old instincts have to be overcome.
How robots should become safer
A sensor skin senses where and how firmly it is touched and stops the arm in the event of danger. Or the robot evades.
Sharp corners and edges are taboo; Cushions protect against bruises. Joints and grippers have anti-trap protection.
Microphones eavesdrop on the environment. If they register screams of fear, stop the robot at lightning speed.
Cameras and laser scanners monitor the work environment. If a collision is imminent, the robot can warn or stop.
The robot's senses tell him how to avert danger. Algorithms control every action.
Engineers build bodies and arms from extremely light materials. So the lightweights cannot seriously injure anyone.
Orientate
The robot locates its position using a laser beam or ultrasound and recognizes whether people are getting in its way.
Martina Mara has been looking for the key to robot sympathy at the Ars Electronica Futurelab in Linz, Austria, for eight years. Once the doctor of psychology put the android of the Japanese robot pope Hiroshi Ishiguro in the cafeteria of her museum. Ishiguro created the machine, pimped up with artificial intelligence, in his own image. She looks so much like him that she sometimes even teaches at Osaka University.
Fascination and eeriness
In everyday life, the Japanese are considered to be more open-minded towards robots, which is probably due to the country's religious history. When the cafeteria guests in Linz noticed the robot, they approached cautiously, but still kept their distance. This is due to a mixture of fascination and eeriness, says Mara.
She made the same observation when the museum showed the mannequin-like robot Telenoid, which provides information and can imitate facial expressions and gestures in addition to the human voice. Some visitors did not even want to touch the silicone skin of the robot when specifically asked to.
These jobs stir up robots
Even today, many work steps are taken over by machines – but networked production is also setting in motion another wave of automation in the factory halls. The bottom line is that this does not necessarily have to lead to job losses, according to the economy: At the end of 2016, Germany was third in the world for "robot density" behind South Korea and Japan – and yet employment is at a record level, explains mechanical engineering Association VDMA. The president of the electronics industry association ZVEI, Michael Ziesemer, also says: "More jobs can be created than lost." Digitization will create a large number of new business models and thus new positions. "Anyone who is creative, approaches and thinks about things has a lot of opportunities."
Networked and automated driving in particular should make many jobs superfluous in the future. "In the future there will be no more train drivers, maybe also no more taxi drivers and truck drivers," believes Bavaria's DGB boss Matthias Jena. Studies predict something similar: in ten years' time every third truck sold in Europe could drive automatically on the autobahn, for example, the consulting firm McKinsey expects. In return, however, new services could also be created around robot cars and trucks.
Paperwork, order processing and billing – office and commercial specialists carry out work according to expert assessments that can already be automated to a high degree. This could also put many jobs at stake: More than 1.6 million people in Germany are employed in such professions.
Retail was one of the first industries to be captured by digitization – accordingly, many processes in online retail are automated. In stationary shops, however, people are usually still sitting at the cash registers, although payment can also be regulated automatically. The shipping giant Amazon is also demonstrating this: in the USA, it tests one and sales staff – billed via smartphone app and customer account.
They milk the cows, feed, muck out and help with the harvest – robots have long since made their way into farms. Where previously a lot of work had to be done by just a few hands, machine colleagues are a welcome support. However, the farm of the future with its diverse activities will probably not function exclusively mechanically either.
Robots in care – what is already part of everyday life in Japan, still causes many people in Germany to be uncomfortable. But because human staff is scarce, robots could also be an important support in this country. Some of them are already in use today to distribute food or transport laundry and sterile items – and as precise helpers at the operating table.
Robots are also already doing their job in the household, and new applications are likely to come with the connected home. The World Robot Association (IFR) expects that from 2016 to 2019 a total of around 31 million robots will be sold worldwide that help mow the lawn, vacuum or clean windows. This does not include assistance robots for people with disabilities. According to the Heidelberg Institute for Trend and Future Research, however, they will not completely replace household help made of flesh and blood. Some housework can simply be done better and faster by people, and the need for help in an aging society remains great.
The relationship between humans and machines is complicated: it has been shown that the likelihood that humans show robots increases the more human the machine looks. But that only works up to the point at which the robot appears almost completely human. From then on, a strong feeling of horror suddenly sets in. As we know from Hollywood films, this will only be overcome when robots and humans can no longer be distinguished.
Robot scientists call the effect Uncanny Valley, in English: the valley of uncanny. Experts argue about why the phenomenon exists. Some suggest that very human-looking robots instigate an ancient instinct in humans. The robots may remind them of sick people or corpses from which they want to stay away in order to protect themselves. The reflex is anchored in the subconscious.

Home> Water> projecten> Alternative purification of heavy metals
In the summer of 2011, HMVT was asked to come up with a practical solution to the purification of 600m³ of contaminated water in an old cellar in Zwolle. At the site of this project a soil remediation and demolition of former business premises was being carried out at the time. The location was severely contaminated with chromium-3, chromium-6 and nickel. Due to the wet summer, the old cellar that was yet to be demolished was full of contaminated water, with concentrations as a high as 400,000 µg/l. A mobile water purification installation based on ion exchange, supplied by a third party, was delivering insufficient results.
Our solution involved the on-site precipitation of the heavy metals and then pumping off the purified water into the sewer system. The contaminated sludge that ended up at the bottom would then be transported along with the excavated contaminated soil and concrete rubble for processing.
Before carrying out this work, we first collected water from the site and tested it at our lab to see whether we could realise a sufficient return and to determine the blend of chemicals that would be necessary. This was then translated into a practical application.
The first laboratory tests revealed that the water contained primarily chromium-6. The concentrations were not too bad: 25-36.000 µg/l. A three-phase treatment, in which firstly the pH was corrected and then the chromium was precipitated with iron (III) chloride and polymer, produced the best lab results. This allowed us to bring the chromium-6 levels down to below 100 µg/l. We also saw a fine sedimentation and clear discolouration of the water.
We then converted the lab results to full-scale doses necessary for the project. In the field, the water in the old cellar was treated in much the same way as in the lab. As the total amount of water turned out not to be 600m³ but had in the meantime increased to 1,500m³, the water was treated in a number of rounds. And in the field, too, after some time we managed to get the same fine results regarding precipitation: a reduction to less than 100µg/l chromium-6.
In addition to the on-site treatment of the water in the cellar, we also provided at this site the pumps that pumped away the clean water, as well as a minor purification unit to hold back any sludge flakes (sand filtration).

This Is How Much Lady Gaga Is Getting Paid for Her Las Vegas Residency, Plus What You'll Pay to Get Tickets to the Show
Megan Elliott
Lady Gaga's much-anticipated Las Vegas residency will kick off on December 28, 2018, at the Park Theater at the Park MGM. The 27-date residency will run through November 8, 2019, and includes two shows: Lady Gaga Enigma and Lady Gaga Jazz & Piano.
Enigma will be "a brand-new odyssey of [Gaga's] pop hit built as an experience unlike any other." Jazz & Piano "will feature stripped-down version of her hits as well as music from the Great American Songbook."
"We're creating a show unlike anything I've done before," Lady Gaga said in a statement. "It will be a celebration of all that is unique and different within us."
Lady Gaga will earn seven figures per night

Stars once sneered at the idea of signing up for a Las Vegas residency — a standing gig in Sin City was a sure sign your career was on the downswing. But after Celine Dion made millions with her popular and hugely successful A New Day… residency, which started in 2002, they started singing a different tune. Since then, everyone from Britney Spears to Elton John has set up shop in Vegas for an extended period.
Big-number deals for residencies are common now, but the money Gaga is commanding is in another category entirely. She'll be taking home more than $1 million per show, Variety reported in 2017, shortly after the residency was announced. She'll also likely get a 50% cut of any merchandise sales.
To put those numbers in perspective, Britney Spears, an established Las Vegas draw, is reportedly getting $500,000 per show for her next residency. She'll also perform at the MGM's Park Theater, starting in 2019. Her "Piece of Me" residency at Planet Hollywood earned more than $137 million over 248 shows.
Gaga's getting so much for her residency that industry insiders aren't convinced the number add up for MGM Resorts, which owns the 5,200-seat Park Theater, Variety reported. Overall, the "Joanne" singer's deal is said to be worth close to $100 million.
This is how much tickets cost for Lady Gaga Enigma
The cheapest tickets start at $77.90
Ticket prices for Lady Gaga Enigma and Lady Gaga Jazz & Piano start at $77.90, not including service charges and fees. For the best seats, Little Monsters will need to fork over more than $500, based on pricing on the Ticketmaster website.
Bundled tickets to both shows will also be available for a limited number of dates. Those start at $642, per Ticketmaster. A limited number of VIP packages and meet and greets will also be available.
Members of the Little Monsters fan club get first crack at tickets, with an exclusive pre-sale running from August 8 through August 12. You can sign up for free to get your pre-sale code here. Tickets will go on sale to the general public on Monday, August 13, at 10 a.m. PT. Citi cardmembers and M life Rewards loyalty members will also have access to pre-sale tickets.
Nightly rates at the Park MGM hotel start at $46.

Two Americans and a French citizen were among five people killed when a light aircraft crashed in Kenya's Great Rift Valley region on Wednesday according to the police.
A Kenyan pilot and an unidentified white male also died when the plane, a Cessna 206, clipped a tree as it attempted an emergency landing and crashed in a field in Kericho county to the west of the capital Nairobi.
"The accident occurred at around 10 a.m. involving this aircraft you see behind me. It was flying low and hit that tree and hence the crash. It had five persons on board who, unfortunately, all of them lost their lives. These are one African, four light-skinned persons, one of them being a lady," Kericho County police commander, James Mogera said.

The Kenya Civil Aviation Authority said in a statement it received a distress signal from the plane which was flying from the Maasai Mara wildlife reserve to the far north Kenyan county of Turkana just before it crashed.
Witnesses said the plane was making unusual sounds as it approached the field. The pilot tried to gesture at farm workers on the ground below to get them to move out of the way, before the rear hit a tree, crashing in the process.
Last year, eight passengers and two pilots were killed when a single turboprop Cessna Caravan plane operated by local firm FlySax on a domestic flight to Kenya's capital Nairobi crashed into a mountain.

Birdie Camper Van and Betty the Mini Trailer will be at Simply Cheshire on May 20th and 21st at Arley Hall.
BIRDIE is a unique photo booth experience in…wait for it… a marshmallow pink VW camper van!
Backdrops, props, snazzy technology – if you can name it, this photo booth has got it.
A self-contained, ready-to-roll shenanigan station. That's right – they've kitted out a classic camper van and turned it into the retro talking point of any event or party.
After thirteen years as a Primary School teacher Kitty Orme decided it was time to leave her job in London and go back to her creative roots. She moved back to her home town of Chester and started to plan her next adventure.
Kitty had always had a passion for customising, styling and photography and so the idea of a camper van photo booth was born…or better still, hatched! On an icy cold day in January she was introduced to her new love; a 1978 bay window camper van who was rusting away under a blue plastic sheet in a hay barn. Kitty affectionately named her BIRDIE after they found chickens roosting in her engine bay. And so the BIRDIE PROJECT began… Alongside best friend and VW restorer Dave Johnston, they plotted the most amazing and unique camper van conversion, that not only could be used as a photo booth for weddings, festivals and events, but would be completely adaptable so BIRDIE could also rock as a mobile vintage stall, cinema, craft camper, retro candy or cocktail bar.
And soon after…along came BETTY, their classic Mini trailer, used as a magic Mini printer for BIRDIE.


Hi, After reading through the site on occasion and been thoroughly entertained I have just joined.
Ive read somewhere on here, but cant find it again. I think it was nzberg that there are 5mm schrader valve bodies to convert the resovoir fill valve. Can anyone point me to where i can get them from.
Im also looking for parts diagram, manual for a WP 4681 rear shock.
Yeah Ive looked all through the docs and links. There is mention of a schrader valve being fitted and caution on the chain hitting it, but cant find out just what I need.
I think if you want to fit a schrader valve you will need to install a bladder kit, both WER and Racetech do bladder kits from memory.
This is the link to Factory Connections site and the bladder kit info. I live in Maine, they are about 60 miles away in Rochester, New Hampshire, had them rework my forks and shocks for woods riding rather than MX. My '98 Fc has a 4681 MX. Might want to give them a buzz.
I've yet to come across a 5mm to Shraeder conversion- but thats not to say they are not out there.
Most drill and tap for an 1/8 BSP to Schraeder "tank valve" or you can also go for an modified steel valve like the pic in my gallery.
If you have some lathe and silver soldering skills a 5mm to Schraeder conversion would be a simple task- negating the need to drill your reservoir, but would end up protruding from the ressy a lot more than the other options.
there is also a high pressure valve available that you screw on the schraeder valve, charge to 175 pounds per square inch and then release. this is VERY important. you don't want any HiiiiiSSSSSSSSSSSS no do ya!!!!
i've asked maddel to host it.
word from the pro tuners is that a bladder behaves well but to stick to original is better - just. with the two items i mention it suddenly becomes a whole lot easier!
and NZberg does have the shortest or so he says and i'm not going to argue!
Just another relatively cheap/simple option.Advantages being no drilling/tapping and doesnt protrude from the ressy.
how much for that neat re-gas tool. the blue 'cap'?
Have a look on the Race Tech USA site- they might be on there as well ?.

Factors Causing Damage to our Health
Death is not as terrifying as old age
Throughout ages, people dreamed about being immortal and searched for the legendary elixir of youth. Many scientists in the world look for ways to extend the human life.
There are many who believe that we should not try to resist the aging process. They say that it is as pointless as trying to revive an old dying tree or renovate an old wooden house whose walls are falling apart. According to this view, all we can do is to influence the process of aging in a limited way by reducing the symptoms and preventing extreme suffering as the nature takes its course.
Then, why does the body age? One of the reasons is our own attitude that conditions the body to speed up the process. We fear illness, immobility, and helplessness that come with the old age. Our aging process begins when we start dwelling on such thoughts and fears.
The way our aging process progresses greatly depends on our psychological attitude towards aging and death.
Unlike all other living organisms, we are able to influence all life processes in our body by using our mind. There are countless examples of people who became ill with a disease as a result of being preoccupied with fearful thoughts about it. There are just as many examples of individuals who conquered terminal diseases by maintaining a positive mental attitude.
Our thoughts have the power to make us healthy or ill; they can also make us younger or older.
Aging is the matter of attitude
When we start reflecting on our age, we usually think in terms of different milestones and stages of life: getting married, bringing up children, menopause for women, retirement, and so on. When we are strongly convinced that there is nothing we can do about the natural progression of the aging process, we program ourselves for premature aging. As soon as we notice our first wrinkles, the thinning of our hair, or pain in our joints, we pronounce the diagnosis: "I am getting old." We think that it creates the necessity to become less active, conserve energy, and lead a restful life. It does not occur to us that we brought these signs of aging on ourselves by incorrect diet, laziness, and lack of youthful enthusiasm for life. We shorten our life ourselves by incorrectly using our psychological powers. Our aging process gets under way because we subconsciously anticipate it.
The crucial period is the age between 40 and 50. During that period, we should pay particular attention to our hygiene and the condition of our skin, hair, hands, feet, and nails, to the flexibility and strength of our joints and muscles and to the overall shape of our body. Easy movements, straight posture, flexibility, flat abdomen, clear and bright eyes are the physical qualities of people who are not affected by aging. It is a mistake, especially for women, to avoid their image in the mirror as soon as they notice the first wrinkles on their face or fatty folds on their skin. Even though they try not to look in the mirror, they are subconsciously troubled by questions such as: "Is this really me? Has life worn me out so much? Do I look awful? Am I already getting old?"
Such concerns take away our enthusiasm for life and our interest in the way we look. When a woman stops admiring her own body and even accepting the way it looks, she allows the aging process to set in.
The mechanism of aging
The mechanism of aging is not completely known. There are several theories. One of them (hormonal theory) proposes that aging results from imbalance between old and new cells. This is caused by two related factors: our hormones "age" and the contact between the hormones and our cells becomes weak. Hormones are the means our brain uses to communicate with our cells.
Each cell has receptors that receive the hormonal signals. When the receptors do not react to hormones anymore, the cell undergoes aging and eventually dies. To use a simplistic analogy, our body is like a TV set, our brain like a remote control able to turn it on or off and switch channels, hormones are like the remote control's batteries and finally the receptors are like the contacts connecting the batteries with the remote control.
When the batteries get old, they still work for a while but cause oxidation on the contacts' surfaces. Even though there is nothing wrong with the TV set or the remote control, the system starts working erratically and eventually quits working at all. If the batteries are replaced and the contacts cleaned, everything starts working again. Something similar takes place in our body but the process is more complicated. This, however, is only one of the theories. Our body works according to a blueprint provided by nature; nevertheless the number of years we live on this planet depends largely on our daily attitude towards our body's maintenance.

'We're Here, We've Been Here'
Friday, February 6, 2015 / 2:11 PM
I've been approaching ABC's Fresh Off the Boat with cautious optimism since last summer when the show was announced. I love Eddie Huang's book, his voice--everything that makes the story what it is. It isn't a story I personally relate to, but there are moments scattered throughout his memoir that resonate with me and reflect personal experiences too. When I heard ABC was turning it into a sitcom, I was excited, but nervous. I didn't want to see the flavor of Eddie's voice disappear.
But along the course of reporting and watching its production and development, I began to get excited. When the cast was unveiled, I got even more excited. I'd been waiting for a show like this my whole life. Last February, I wrote about never seeing a family that looked like mine on TV when I was growing up. Fresh Off the Boat was the representation I'd been craving for years.
Disclaimer: I'm not a television critic. There was no way I would even attempt to be one. I'm an observer of the community, and I want to continue to be one for as long as my career will allow me.
On Wednesday night, I covered a watch party in New York City for the two-episode premiere of the show that was attended by the cast and crew of the show, along with more than 1,000 fans. I was watching the show, but I was also watching the faces of the people around me. Their faces reflected the excitement and emotion I felt inside. I took a breath as the second episode was ending, put down my reporter's notebook, and focused on the projectors.
Louis was sitting on the driveway with Eddie, telling Eddie that he knew their mom was tough, but it came from a place of love. (The whole episode had a running joke about how weird it was for Asian families to say "I love you" to each other, but the reason was that you didn't need to. Of course you loved each other. As the Magnetic North song says: "In a family, talking real is awkward/We don't say, 'I love you'/We say, 'Are you hungry?'")
Louis grabs a basketball and asks Eddie if he thought he could take him on. They play, and the two younger Huang sons run out to join them with permission from their mom, Jessica. As the four are playing, the neighbor's kid passes by and Eddie invites him to join. Jessica watches all this from the window, smiling.
That moment, paired with the moment from the pilot when Louis and Jessica stand up for Eddie at the principal's office after Eddie beats a kid up for calling him a chink, is something I get: it's not about how often your parents tell you they love you because waiting for them to say it wasn't the point. But you could be damn sure they'd show they loved you.
I was watching Louis and the kids play basketball and it was like someone had placed warm hands over my heart. Growing up, we had a basketball hoop on our driveway too. Na and I weren't particularly good at sports, but we had fun and we were encouraged by our dad to enjoy it. We played badminton outside too, rode our bikes around the cul-de-sac and to/from piano practice, played frisbee on the sidewalk. We didn't have a large social network, nor were we particularly close with all of our neighbors. But it never felt lonely; we had each other.
I paused to let myself be a part of the historic moment of what Fresh Off the Boat meant to a community often overlooked by the mainstream, and what the show also meant to me personally--and it was overwhelming. I've been the kid whose classmates made fun of her "ethnic" lunch, who just didn't eat because being hungry was better than being laughed at when you're in 3rd grade and just trying to make friends. I've been called a chink. I've also been pushed into a model minority box, and overlooked when trying to break out of it and just be myself.
There's so much about Fresh Off the Boat, the sitcom, that speaks to me as a child of immigrants and as an American kid just looking for an ally out there on the playground. And while the show is not without its minor faults (I'm still not crazy about the accents), it is certainly filled with so much heart that it's impossible not to smile. I hope it will continue to have its place on a network that, 20 years ago, rejected another Asian American family.
And no--having one sitcom about an Asian American family doesn't mean we've solved the issue of a lack of representation. This show is just part of the staircase we're climbing--and we as a community must keep climbing and making our voices heard. Last month, I spoke at the Asian Pacific American Awareness Conference at UC Irvine on the topic of the lack of representation in the media, and I think my conclusion for that speech is exactly what I want to conclude with here:
When we ask the question, "Where is Asian America?" it's important to clarify that our existence has never been in question in this country: despite the attempts to keep immigrants out, to keep our ancestors out, we're here. We've been here. And after decades of letting others decide what mirrors we were allowed to look in and how we were seen and what words defined us, the most powerful way to tell our stories is not to carry the burden of representation alone, but to enter the spaces that originally were not intended for us and to use our voices and our alliances to transform the media landscape into a place where representation is no longer a question, but a fact.

From candid snapchats to raving star ratings, rumours were buzzing and the bar for the stage adaptation of Trainspotting was set extremely high. Following the bestselling novel and cult film, it could all have gone very wrong. Nonetheless, before the tour hit Bristol this April, In Your Face Theatre had already had a pretty good time. A sell-out Fringe run in 2015 and the same in London earlier this year, no less.
For its run with the Tobacco Factory, the company leads curious thespians and film enthusiasts through the Temple Meads caves and straight into an ear-splitting fluoro rave party. The line between onlookers and performers is blurred as rowdy scots crawl through the audience, dripping with sweat, adrenaline pumping with every beat. Before the show begins, viewers are led to their seats by Sick Boy, Tommy or Renton as they catch their breath before being sucked back into the music. Onscreen nightclub scenes of the past finally become tangible- it is surprisingly fascinating to sit from afar silently studying the explosive techno euphoria. The distance never becomes too much, audience members still being close enough to receive sweat, spit and emanating heat-waves from time to time.
Trainspotting insults, soils and provokes the audience. What in the real world would offend and profoundly unsettle here heightens the quality of the performance by exciting all five senses of everyone involved, and no one is safe; people having come to just watch the show will leave having fully experienced it. Where Trainspotting triumphs is in its portrayal of such a well-known story, which is completely reimagined on a narrative, technical and artistic level. The production toys with the character dynamic by shifting narrative developments and readjusting the hierarchy.
Gavin Ross truly becomes Renton with no holding back, running through the story at an incredible pace and leading the show with such power, even when shown at his most vulnerable. Every inch of his body and character is scrutinised by the audience, from which he never shies away. His performance is fearless, tenacious and truly gripping. Amidst the thick accents and provocative intentions, spectacle trumps substance at times and meaning does get a bit lost. Diane is not present in the stage adaptation and unfortunately Alison's narrative here isn't given enough time or, dare I say, credibility to have as much impact as in the film.
Although every actor displays a similar drive that keeps the pace and excitement at a high, the highlight of the show is Greg Esplin's Tommy, cleverly reworked and given great importance. The character grounds the show, giving it necessary humility and a true understanding of the repercussions of the depicted way of life. Esplin, who also co-directed the show and founded IYF, delivers a layered and extremely convincing performance. He embodies the rise and fall of the addiction, honouring the original story while creating a new and complex character, heartwarming and heartbreaking in turn.
The script's reworking of the narrative creates a reflexive performance, with each character taking it in turn to narrate a new chapter of the show's episodic creation. This allows the creation of a sense of cohesion on stage and an instance of order among the chaos. But surprisingly, it is where the shows aims to sew scenes together clearly and seamlessly that Trainspotting's weaknesses actually lie. The switches between scenes rely on lighting changes and an extensive brit-pop score. While this does allows clear separation in episodes, at times the aesthetic detracts from the immersive nature of the production, making it feel somewhat jolted and more obviously staged. Equally, although the show's soundtrack seeks inspiration in all the right places instead of simply borrowing the film's music, some tracks do seem predictable and a bit easy.
However despite these fairly minor stylistic issues, In Your Face Theatre's Trainspotting is outstanding. The production as a whole proves its worth as more than a remake and truly testifies how exciting theatre really can be. It is for the most part slick and extremely clever, honouring the well-loved pillars and reworking them too by creating an experience far too big for cinema screens. It may be too loud, too offensive, too edgy, and really too much at times, but the show is aware of its flaws and responds with two fingers. Outrageously visceral and yet incredibly moving, Trainspotting shows everything you did and did not want to see. Despite my best attempts to move on, a week later Trainspotting is showing no sign of leaving my mind. And I'm not sure I want it to.

Q: How do I use an external .py file? I downloaded beautifulsoup.py for use on a little project I'm making. Do I need to import this .py file in my project?
Do I just copy and paste the code somewhere inside my current python script?
Thank you for the help.
I found this but it doesn't say anything regarding Windows.
http://mail.python.org/pipermail/tutor/2002-April/013953.html
I'm getting this error when using it. I copied and pasted the .py file to the folder where my project was on Windows Explorer, not this happens. Any suggestions?

A: When you install beautifulsoup the canonical way (with easy_install for example, or with a windows installer, if any) the beautifulsoup module will probably be added to your PYTHONDIR\lib\site-packages directory.
This means
import beautifulsoup

should do the trick.
Otherwise, adding beautifulsoup.py (if it's a single file) to your current project directory and then issuing import beautifulsoup should also do the trick.

A: You have several choices:

*

*you can cut and paste in the code, assuming the license permits etc.  however, what happens when the code is updated?

*you can put the code into the same directory (ie folder) as your code.  Then all you need to do is say import beautifulsoup before you try to use it.

*you can put the code somewhere in the python load path.

A: If it's in the same directory as your little project, all you should need to do is:
import BeautifulSoup

If you are keeping it in some other directory, the easiest way to do it is:
from sys import path
path.append(path_to_Beautiful_Soup)

import BeautifulSoup

Python keeps track of where it is currently, and first looks in the current directory.  Then it checks through all of the paths in sys.path for the module in question.  If it cannot find it in any of those places, it throws an error.

A: I've done it before, putting BeautifulSoup.py inside the same directory as the script and import it would work. If you have multiple scripts spread over different directories, put the beautifulsoup file in the root directory and do a relative import.

A: you have to  install a new package correctly in python by using in the command line:
pip install BeautifulSoup

if you don't know the name of the package use :
pip search beautiful

and the pip will get all package that have "beautiful" in their name or description ...
One more thing that is very important ; and because you use eclipse (netbeans it's the same) and pydev as i can see; you should refresh the list of package used by pydev when installing a new package by going in the menu to (for eclipse) Window -> Preference ->  Pydev -> Interpreter - Python and clicking on Apply  why is that ?, so that you can use the full power of pydev correctly (code completion , F3 ...) and because Pydev don't know if a package has been added until you tell him so.
the steps are for eclipse you can do their analog in netbeans right ?

L.K. Bennett - Trading in administration – options for creditors
L.K. Bennett entered administration on 7 March 2019, joining Patisserie Valerie as one of the marquee high street insolvencies of 2019. Rising rents and business rates, complaints now heard almost universally in retail insolvencies, were cited among the key factors in its collapse. On entering administration, L.K. Bennett operated from circa 130 stores globally. Online sales made up 33 per cent of total sales.
Talks were reported to have begun around a month ago to secure a buyer for the business. Had they been successful, L.K. Bennett might have been sold in a pre-pack administration sale, as was the case with the purchase of House of Fraser (which owed L.K. Bennett circa £400k) by Mike Ashley's SportsDirect.com group in 2018. Instead, L.K. Bennett continues to trade while a formal marketing and sales process is carried out. Five stores have been closed and internet sales have been suspended.
How does trading in administration work?
Once appointed, the administrators take over the running of the business, seeking to retain or increase its value for the benefit of creditors. Management have no formal role but may provide commercial input. The company enjoys a statutory moratorium on any legal claims being brought against it, including debt claims, except with the consent of the administrators or the court. This gives it breathing space in which to stabilise its affairs or realise assets.
Throughout the process, the administrators must be able to justify that trading the company fulfils one of the following statutory purposes of administration: to rescue the company as a going concern; or, failing which, to achieve a better result for its creditors as a whole than would be likely if the company were wound up; or, failing which, realising the company's property to make a distribution to one or more secured or preferential creditors. To achieve the second purpose, which appears to be the aim with L.K. Bennett, the administrators will generally seek to run the business as normal insofar as possible.
Options available to unsecured creditors
Trading with the company
The company will need to retain its trading relationships with key suppliers. Where the goods or services are essential to the company's continuing ability to trade, a creditor's position may be comparatively strong. While generally they must not prefer one creditor or class of creditors over another, administrators can justify making 'ransom payments' to creditors whose cooperation is necessary to the continuation of the administration.
While it is beyond the scope of this article, certain essential suppliers (utilities, IT infrastructure etc.), assuming they are paid in full, are obliged to continue supplying a company in administration. The default position, however, is that creditors may elect to terminate supplies.
Recovering debts
The statutory moratorium can prevent unsecured creditors from exerting meaningful pressure on a company trading in administration. Generally, only expenses incurred during the administration will be payable, meaning that historical unsecured debts, which will include most of a company's unpaid suppliers, are paid alongside all other unsecured claims from what remains of the company's assets at the conclusion of the process. Recovery for unsecured creditors at this stage is, typically, poor.
Contractual recovery
There are a number of situations in which unsecured creditors may be entitled to recover monies ahead of the statutory waterfall of distributions. These include:
Retention of title clauses in contracts. Frequently found in equipment hire or similar agreements, these can be enforced once the administrators have satisfied themselves that the provisions of the agreement are valid.
Monies impressed with a trust. Where monies were put into the business for a specific purpose, such as to pay a particular liability, they may be held on trust for the payer and therefore recoverable. This can include formal rent deposits or monies injected by third parties to pay specific debts.
Factoring or invoice discounting. Where it is shown in the relevant agreement that title to any book debts or invoices passed to a third party, those assets will fall outside the administration estate and be recoverable by that party.
In all of these scenarios, it will be for the creditor to show that such an arrangement exists.
Our Insolvency and Restructuring Group has acted in a number of retail insolvencies including Mothercare, Toys "R" Us and Maplin.
If you are a supplier to or a creditor of L.K. Bennett and are seeking legal advice on your position, or if you would like to discuss a retail insolvency issue more generally, please contact Coralie Gass.
