Q: Order all the prime ideals of $\Bbb{R}[X]$ and list the maximal ideals.
Let $R=\Bbb{R}[X]$. I need to do the following:

*

*find all prime ideals

*find all maximal ideals

*show containments of prime ideals

*indicate the minimal prime ideal

*is $R$ an integral domain

*is $R$ a local ring

My idea was the following:
Let me first remark that $R$ is a PID, so every ideal can be written as $(P)$ for $P\in R$. From here we immediately can deduce that $R$ is an integral domain.
We first want to find all the maximal ideals. We know that these are all ideals $(P)$ such that $P$ is irreducible in $R$. But this are all ideals of the form $$(aX^2+bX+c)$$ for $a,b,c\in \Bbb{R}$ such that for all $z\in \Bbb{R}$ $az^2+bz+c\neq 0$. From here we can also say that $R$ is not a local ring.
Now let us talk about the prime ideals. We clearly know that all maximal ideals are also prime ideals. So we only need to check if there are more ideals which are prime but not maximal. I claim that there aren't further prime ideals. Indeed let $Q$ be not a irreducible element of $R$. So $$Q=(X-a_1)...(X-a_n)$$ for $a_i\in \Bbb{R}$. Clearly $(X-a_1)...(X-a_n)\in (Q)$ but $(X-a_i)\notin (Q)$ since $\deg(X-a_i)=1<\deg(Q)$, hence $Q$ is not prime. Thus we have seen that all prime ideals are the maximal ones.
Now we see that $(0)$ is the minimal prime ideal and I think there is no maximal prime ideal.
Is this correct like this or am I completely wrong?

Minister for Defence - Australia welcomes Japanese defence reform
I welcome the decision of the Japanese Government to reform its defence policies to enable Japan to play a greater role in promoting peace and security in our region and internationally.
The reforms to Japan's defence policies will enable the further strengthening of Australia's defence and security cooperation with Japan. This includes Japan's full participation in the CEP for Australia's next generation of submarines.
Japan is one of three potential partners who are engaged in the CEP being conducted by the Department of Defence. I am very encouraged with Japanese engagement with Australian industry to date. I welcome Japan's commitment to continuing to strengthen this engagement.
Australia fully supports reforms that increase Japan's role in our shared interests in regional and international peace and security.
The reforms to Japan's defence policies will also allow Australia and Japan to further develop our trilateral defence relationship with our common alliance partner the United States.
Japan is a key defence partner of Australia in this region and I welcome the opportunity to develop this relationship further.

Targeted Individuals Canada
The Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms is part of Canadian Constitution that protects its citizens from human rights violations.
Home > articles, blog post, news	> TI OSEH Update (Videos)
TI OSEH Update (Videos)
May 6, 2011 @ffv
Targeted Individuals or TI is an individual who has been placed into a maze of psychological and often physical warfare tactics which is orchestrated by the U.S. military, C.I.A. and federal law enforcement. From community harassment known as "Organized Stalking" and various other invasion of privacy tactics and violations of basic constitutional rights to invisible, silent physical torture through the use of highly targeted overexposure to electromagnetic radiation (Amazines).
Targeted Individuals a department of defence term, are people who locals deem unfit for society, in one way or another. Some are whistle-blowers; some are dissidents, like anti-war demonstrators; some have a beef with one corporation or another; some just have different political or religious ideologies then the norm; some are targeted for reasons of lust and greed, and some are targets of convenience. They are targeted by means of gang-stalking, b & e's, harassment, poisonings (biological and/or chemical), remote electronic harassment (messing with radios and tv's, etc., remotely), vandalism, character assassinations, staged accidents, etc. Harassment is on-going, in and outside the home (The Cybercircle).
jonal0808's Channel – "I'm assaulted on a daily basis…with non-stop harassment in a forms of what I call and many targeted individuals called gang stalking…"
plexusxxl – "…mind control…people's mind are controlled against their will…the full capability of this technology is also to control biological functions in bodies and mind…"
Organized Stalking is the preferred term for that portion of the full crime of organized stalking and electronic harassment where people who live in the community will mercilessly harass a designated target, based on LIES, such as the target is a drug dealer, the target has a long criminal record, or the favourite lie, the target is a pedophile (Raven1).
mossbergization's Channel – "…pieces of a very large and complicated puzzles are starting to come together…and everything started to make sense…I've been targeted for the last four years or more…I lost numerous jobs for unexplained reasons…"
maikel8765's Channel – "…theres this wildest technologies coming in your brain, the same frequencies that your brain thinks at and its like having a thoughts and losing it its the two collide and never get together…and its cause a lot of damages…"
Electornic Harassment is a term referring to the use of electronic devices to harass, torture, and/or physically harm a person, not to be confused with cyberstalking. In Michigan, Public act 257 of 2003 makes it a felony for a person to "manufacture, deliver, possess, transport, place, use, or release" a "harmful electronic or electromagnetic device" for "an unlawful purpose"; also made into a felony is the act of causing "an individual to falsely believe that the individual has been exposed to a harmful electronic or electromagnetic device." In Maine, Public law 264, H.P. 868 – L.D. 1271 criminalizes the knowing, intentional, and/or reckless use of an electronic weapon on another person, defining an electronic weapon as a portable device or weapon emitting an electrical current, impulse, beam, or wave with disabling effects on a human being (publicsignal).
A health-related method of electronic harassment is the attack of directed energy weapon emitting electromagnetic radiation which can be classified into ionizing radiation and non-ionizing radiation, based on whether it is capable of ionizing atoms and breaking chemical bonds. Ultraviolet and higher frequencies, such as X-rays or gamma rays are ionizing. These pose their own special hazards: see radiation and radiation poisoning. Non-ionizing radiation, discussed here, is associated with two major potential hazards: electrical and biological. Additionally, induced electric current caused by radiation can generate sparks and create a fire or explosive hazard (Wikipedia).
The most common electronic harassment method is the use of voice to skull techonologies. Voice to Skull devices or V2K is a nonlethal weapon which includes (1) a neuro-electromagnetic device which uses microwave transmission of sound into the skull of persons or animals by way of pulse-modulated microwave radiation; and (2) a silent sound device which can transmit sound into the skull of person or animals. NOTE: The sound modulation may be voice or audio subliminal messages. One application of V2K is use as an electronic scarecrow to frighten birds in the vicinity of airports (fas).
RonPaulOrDie – "…it seems more on what they're doing is like remotely bombarding various regions of your brain with frequencies that block part of your brain from working…shutting down your conscious awareness…"
5ringa's Channel – "…this is cause from gang stalking and electronic harassments…I'm a targeted individuals of gang stalking…"

Q: Eclipse PMD automatic reparse once source file is updated? I am using PMD plugin under Eclipse.
How can one force PMD plugin to reparse a source file once it is updated to eliminate fixed warnings?
After right click on a project name in Package Explorer, I select PMD -> Check Code with PMD and many warnings/errors are shown. Then I start modification of source code to fix the issues, but warning don't disappear automatically.
Every time to verify I need to PMD -> Check Code with PMD manually which is very tedious.

A: For the 4.0 release of the Eclipse Plugin you have to go to the main preference page an ensure that the "Check code after saving" option is turned on.


The madness boils over in Season 4 of Psycho prequel Bates Motel, and we would immediately advise refraining from any unnecessary showers. Of course, the first photos of Season 4 premiere "A Danger to Himself and Others" might land you in the hospital regardless, as will the synopsis.
You can check out the first teaser below, and stay tuned for the March 7 premiere on A&E.

Q: Get three specific wordpress posts and random the output I've this wordpress get_posts arguments:
    $arg = array(
        'orderby' => 'rand',
        'numberposts' => 1,
        'post_type' => 'dmd_berater',
        'post_name' => 'test1',
        'meta_query' => array(
            'key' => 'dmd_subject',
            'value' => 'Daten und Analysen',
            'compare' => 'LIKE'
        ),
    );
    $consultant_post = get_posts($arg); //contains ALL posts.

The code above contains all posts but I only want the post with the post_name 'test1'.
Is this possible? And how?
It should be great if I can output three specific posts. I think it should be work with an array? Like:
'post_name' => array('test1', 'test2', 'test3'),

*

*Can somebody find my issue?

*Is an array possible?

A: 'post_name__in' => array('test1', 'test2', 'test3')
See the paramters section for more informations.

A: if you want 'test1' is the slug of the post, then use just 'name' => 'test1'.
-->here is the link
return value of get_posts is an array
--> here

A: You can do it by using WP_QUERY() and its parameter post_name__in
According to DOCS

'post_name__in' - Preserve post slug order given in the post_name__in
  array (available since Version 4.6).

$arg   = array(
    'orderby'       => 'rand',
    'numberposts'   => 3,
    'post_type'     => 'dmd_berater',
    'post_name__in' => array('test1', 'test2', 'test3'),
    'meta_query'    => array(
        array(
            'key'     => 'dmd_subject',
            'value'   => 'Daten und Analysen',
            'compare' => 'LIKE'
        )
    ),
);
$query = new WP_Query($args);
if( $query->have_posts() ) :
    while($query->have_posts()) : $query->the_post();
        // Your loop code
    endwhile;
else :
    echo wpautop('Sorry, no posts were found');
endif;

У Црној Гори је за вријеме вишевјековног османлијског управљања Балканом, подигнуто преко двадесет турбета, за која се зна. Она се међусобно разликују, па се тешко могу сврстати у неку одређену групу. Највише их је подигнуто истакнутим добротворима-вакифима, а најслженији комплекс има турбе у Старом Бару. Највише турбета је подигнуто у Улцињу (једанаест) од којих су очувана само четири. У Пљевљима је било, колико се зна, пет, а очувана су два. У Бару, Подгорици и Бијелом Пољу су постојала по два турбета, а сачувано је по једно. У Рожајама, Петњици и Гусињу, налази се по једно турбе.

Списак турбета у Црној Гори
Ово је списак турбета у Црној Гори:
 Хајдар-пашино турбе (Радулићи, код Бијелог Поља)
 Турбе Хаџи-паше Османагића (у Подгорици)
 Дервиш Хасаново турбе (у Бару)

Шехидска турбета:
 Шејх Мехмедово турбе (у Рожајама)
 Хусревбегово турбе (у Подгорици)
 Мурат Дедино турбе (у Улцињу)
 Фани турбе (код мале плаже, у Улцињу)

Travel Travel Guide 24 hours in Detroit, USA
"Why would anyone want to spend time in Detroit." asked the passport inspector at Detroit Metropolitan Wayne County Airport. Shocked, I heard myself saying, "well it's the birthplace of Motown, home town of Aretha Franklin, has the amazing Detroit Art museum not to mention the Ford museum". He raised an eyebrow – either I was a big shot or I had clearly done my research.
"In that case" he said, "if you have a good time and tell all your friends. Have a nice day now".
On reflection I'm not really that surprised at the banter. Detroit is still under the cosh of its reputation as being run-down and a little unloved. Yet the city has spent the last decade going through a regeneration process where forlorn skyscrapers and iconic buildings have been and are still being restored.
The buzziest part is downtown Detroit, where just one square mile. This is also home to a heritage steeped in ice hockey, baseball (Detroit Tigers) and American football (Detroit Lions) who collectively entice hundreds of thousands fans into the city's magnificent stadiums.
In any case, part of the State of Michigan, is known for two amazing achievements both of which will get you moving. The first is the motor industry thanks to Henry Ford and the second is the legendary Motown music.
Some say that the city reminds them of New York because it has skyscrapers. And like the Big Apple homes are heated by underground mechanisms and to release the pressure, steam is let out from holes in the ground. Fair enough, but that is where any similarity ends.
Must stay at the Aloft Detroit at the David Whitney building
The Aloft is housed in the iconic David Whitney Building. It was built in in a Neo-Renaissance style exterior with a beautiful terracotta and glazed brick facade. It recently underwent a huge refurbish costing $92 million resulting in 136 contemporary styled rooms scattered over 19 stories. The X-factor is the incredible four storey atrium and skylight that splashes daylight over a spacious lobby that is unabashedly covered in marble and gold leafing.
Must tour the Rouge Factory
Detroit aka Motor City has a long connected to the family. The city is known for the manufacture of Chrysler, General Motors and in the Henry factory. It impacted the city positively by employing 10,000 of its two million city folk. But then came automation and robots and the workforce reduced. Today there are around 3,000 people who oversee the smooth running of the production line.
Though it may seem odd to suggest a visit, watching how a car moves through the assembly line with the precision of human intervention is actually mesmerising. A new car leaves the assembly line every 53 seconds, averaging 1,500 trucks a day every single day. The style multi sensory in 5D is pretty amazing and later you get to see the Legacy Gallery display of the groundbreaking V-8, the classic Thunderbird and the Mustang.
Must check out Henry Ford Museum of American Innovation
This is a rather large snapshot of American life depicted through Henry massive collection of Americana which he started. You'll get to see his first ever car, the "Quadricycle," which ran on four bicycle tyres, presidential cars, airplanes, a museum of mathematica, furniture and even tractors.
You can also see the bus in which Rosa Parks, dubbed the Mother of Human Rights, famously made a stand against segregation causing a city-wide boycott of the bus company of Montgomery. The story goes that Rosa indignantly refused to give up her seat in favour of a white person. It was her arrest that led to the wave of protest and the following civil rights movement.
Other interesting artefacts are the rocking chair in which Abraham Lincoln was shot, tens of cars and tractors and even planes.
There's also a real Model T, the first affordable car, which is taken apart every day and visitors can put it back together again. It's really quite simple.
There are also the Diego Rivera's murals. Rivera, who was married to fellow Mexican artist Frida Kahlo, was a Mexican communist who was brought in by Cecil Ford during the Great Depression to create these artworks as a tribute to the industry and its workers. There are 27 panels collectively known as the "Detroit Industry Murals," depicting the evolution of the Ford Motor Company highlighting the human plight.

Spiderman VS Lizard Clones
You are in Spiderman Games
When things get out of hand in a crazy scientist's lab, a weird half man half lizard creature is created. The only one who can even think of stopping the creature is Spiderman. In this game we'll see him fighting against Lizard clones.
This is a first perspective 3D shooter. You practically can't even see Spiderman, except for his hand which is shooting out web. Lizard man, the villain Spiderman is fighting against, has obviously perfected the replication technique, and he is multiplying himself into dozens of clones. Since this game resembles defense games, levels here are called waves. Each wave consists of 11 Lizards. The only difference between levels is that with each new wave Lizards are more aggressive and have better organized attack.

Those webs Spiderman is throwing look like an electrical arch more then a web. Recharge is automatic, but the problem is that Spiderman is completely defenceless during that time. There is limited time to finish each mission, but it is possible to 'add' more time if you pick up certain gadgets form the ground.
While playing this game for 10 minutes or so, I haven't noticed any problems regarding controls. Movement is very smooth and there are no glitches in the game, even though it is in 3D. You use arrow keys to move and you can also move left ('Z') and right ('C'). The most important is the shooting key 'X'.
Who is Lizard exactly?
Lizard is the doctor Connor's alter ego. He is a scientist and a colleague of Peter Parker's father. Basically he is a good guy and Spiderman's friend. However, after he takes a limb regenerating serum, he turns into a giant Lizard and becomes one of the most dangerous villains. At first he didn't want to experiment on humans, but later on his plan becomes just that, to infect the population with serum and thus create a large army of humanoid lizards. He is one of the oldest Marvel's characters, dating back to the sixties and the time of Amazing Spiderman.
Lizard in Movies and Games
Lizard is one of the main villains in Amazing Spiderman movie from 2012. Actor Rhys Ifans is playing Dr. Curt Connors. And since there is the video game which goes with a movie, Lizard is also the villain The Amazing Spider-Man video game from 2012.
About Lizard's role in the movie.
Peter Parked had accidentally helped Dr. Connors develop a serum for limb regeneration, which is very common in lizards. Due to the pressure from his employer to start human testing, Dr. Connors had tested the serum on himself, and it worked. His missing right arm had fully regenerated which means it grew back completely. However, this serum has its side effects. Nice doctor occasionally transforms into an aggressive genetic mutant - lizard-man, with superhuman strength and speed, endurance and senses. At first Lizard doesn't know that Peter is really the Spiderman, but at the end, their duel is inevitable. You can see the fight in high school between these two in the clip from the movie down below. Here you can really see just how dangerous opponent Lizard is. He has extraordinary acrobatic skills and strength, but he is still powerless against Spiderman's spider web. This scene is specially interesting because the very creator of Spiderman - Stan Lee - appears in a supporting role.

Grape grower Chris Jentsch launched C.C. Jentsch Cellars somewhat precipitously in the 2012 vintage when Andrew Peller Ltd. decided it did not need his 60 acres of grapes any more.
It was not a reflection on the quality of the fruit. Peller's own substantial plantings had begun to produce more grapes.
Chris had been thinking of a winery but he had not had time to convert his fruit packing house into a production facility. So he arranged to have his 2012 wines made at Okanagan Crush Pad.
The new winery, on the highway midway between Osoyoos and Oliver, was ready for the 2013 vintage and for the new winemaker that Chris hired that summer.


Britain's departure from the European Union would be delayed until 22 May if MPs endorse Theresa May's Brexit blueprint under an agreement hammered out by EU leaders in late night talks in Brussels.
If the Commons rejects her plans in a third "meaningful vote" next week, the UK would have until 12 April to set out its next steps.
The new timetable was agreed following seven hours of often fraught talks in Brussels. It was not confirmed last night that Mrs May had agreed to the EU's offer, which would remove the prospect of a no-deal Brexit next Friday for at least a fortnight.
Tory discipline was near breaking-point last night after the party's Chief Whip lambasted Theresa May's handling of the Brexit endgame.
ITV News reported that Julian Smith had described the controversial speech in which she blamed the Brexit impasse on MPs as "appalling".
The prospect of a no-deal Brexit is growing as ministers insisted Mrs May is determined to lead Britain out of the European Union without an agreement if she fails to secure backing for her withdrawal plans.
Senior Conservatives are deeply pessimistic that she can win over enough Brexiteer Tories and DUP MPs to secure a majority in the third "meaningful vote" she plans to hold next week on her proposals. If she is defeated, ministers believe she is ready to press on with a no-deal Brexit although MPs overwhelmingly voted against the option last week. It remains the legal default option under the two-year Article 50 process.
The Prime Minister had asked the EU to delay Brexit by 30 June to give her one final chance to overturn two crushing defeats to her Brexit blueprint.
But she ran into open hostility from the other 27 leaders at a tense summit in Brussels, dodging repeated questions over what she would do if she lost the Commons showdown pencilled in for Tuesday.
Her plea for an extension to 30 June by extending Article 50 was rejected by the majority of other leaders who are preparing to offer a much shorter delay to Brexit.
After failing to reach agreement after a five-hour discussion, the leaders continued the talks over a working dinner in Mrs May's absence.
Donald Tusk, the European Council president, had suggested a 22 May Brexit deadline if Mrs May was able to win a majority for her plans – but no extension if she failed.
But his recommendations appeared to have been torn up at wrangling over the EU's terms for Britain's departure.

Unconfirmed reports suggested that an alternative exit date of May 7 – two days before a planned summit in Romania to celebrate the "renewal" of the EU – was being considered by leaders.
The president of the European Parliament, Antonio Tajani, said MEPs did not want any extension to run beyond April 11, the last possible date for the UK to announce its participation in the European elections.


In recent years, the integration of robotic technologies and archaeological research has given highly innovative and promising results. The novelties of this fruitful synergy will be presented to the public during a Workshop hosted within the International Robotics Festival. The programme, rich in interventions, will host groups of study among the most representative in the field, with the aim of illustrating the new frontiers of archeology.
The presentations will include the research on advanced technologies and robots for mapping, documentation and excavation of submarine and coastal archaeological sites, new applications and perspectives on the use of drones in archeology, virtual technologies and three-dimensional reconstructions applied to the study of mummified human remains, a new system for the automatic recognition of archaeological pottery, and virtual archeology and cyber-archeology technologies for monitoring and reconstructing ancient contexts and monuments.
At the end of the presentations, technology-based laboratory experiments involving the public have also been scheduled.


Bad behaviour? Blame the schools, blame ADHD ... blame anyone and anything but the parents.
To many the letters PR might signify the term Public Relations, but to me they conjure up another phrase — Personal Responsibility, a once common and admiral human trait that is now on the verge of extinction.
Years ago, anyone with a modicum of pride and self-respect would hold their hand up and admit they'd made a mistake or were part of the problem.
Nowadays, however, it's become all too common to play the victim as people desperately seek an appropriate scapegoat so they can absolve themselves of any wrongdoing.
And, in some cases, even though it may be the truth, we're too afraid to voice it for the very real fear that we will be accused of "victim blaming/shaming".
Yep, the hypocrisy is nauseating.
We can call out something or someone else for our problems, but no one had better have the audacity to accuse us.
I was horrified to read a story last week about the drowning of a toddler on a fenced piece of council property. The onus was clearly being put on the council.
There was no mention of how and why a toddler was able to wander unsupervised, in the evening, to meet their death. Where were the parents or other appropriate adults?
Is the asking of such a question really deemed inappropriate in the search for the truth?
And why should that valid question automatically be translated into "blame" by over-sensitive right fighters?
Instead, it's easier just shift the blame to those responsible for where the tragic incident took place.
Sadly, this lack of PR is nothing new — it's spreading faster than cream cheese on a bagel.
Rather than admit we may be a less than perfect parent, we instead blame ADHD or whatever disorder is currently trending.
We blame schools and overcrowded classrooms, we blame benefit levels (since when did discipline cost anything other than time and consistency?), we blame politicians ... we blame anything and anyone as long as it's not ourselves.
That's a great lesson to teach our kids — not. But this is why the problem is becoming worse because we have raised a generation to play the blame game and feel no personal responsibility whatsoever.
And it's not just the younger generation, many a mature adult has also chosen to abandon their ownership to any problems they've contributed to.
Ironically, I could blame social media and social justice seekers or political correctness gone mad ... even the media, for not having the backbone to ask the hard questions for fear of "victim blaming" accusations. But I won't because all of the above only exist due to the personal choices made by many, even though we probably won't take responsibility for them either.
The problem doesn't just relate to kids and parenting — it's become the standard go-to response for any personal setback or failing.
You over-committed financially to a mortgage or bought at the wrong time ... blame the bank or the housing market.
You beat your partner ... "I was drunk" or "they made me do it".
It just excuse after excuse.
Well, excuse me, but has our society become so jaded that the truth is now commonly overlooked for fear of offending somebody?
If we want to be treated like a responsible human being, a good place to start would be by taking responsibility for our own damn actions.
Blame who and whatever you like but ultimately nothing will change until we do.

Q: Knight's tour algorithm So I have to write this algorithm (this version does not need to end in the same spot that knight started), and I got it to work, but it's too slow. It works with starting positions x=0 and y=0 for size=8, but if I try to manipulate x and y to for example 2 and 4 it doesn't end after a few minutes. Can anyone help?
#include <stdio.h>
#define size 8
int ruch_x[]={ -1,  1, -2,  2, -2,  2, -1,  1}; //arrays of possible knight moves, for example 2nd move is [1,2]//
int ruch_y[]={  2,  2,  1,  1, -1, -1, -2, -2};

int done(int szach[][size])
{
   for(int i=0;i<size;i++)
   {
      for(int j=0;j<size;j++)
      {
         if(szach[i][j]==0)
            return 0;
      }
   }
   return 1;
}
//licz - variable for counting knights moves//
void konik(int szach[][size], int x, int y, int licz)
{
    szach[x][y]=licz;
    if(licz<size*size){
        for(int i=0;i<=7;i++){ //loop that checks every possible knight move//
            if(szach[x+ruch_x[i]][y+ruch_y[i]]==0&&x+ruch_x[i]>=0&&x+ruch_x[i]<size&&y+ruch_y[i]>=0&&y+ruch_y[i]<size)
// checking if candidat was already visited and if it's not outside of the board//
            {
                konik(szach, x+ruch_x[i], y+ruch_y[i], licz+1);}}}

    if(done(szach)==1) return; //checking if whole board is filled with numbers, if yes then skip zeroing current move//
    szach[x][y]=0;
}

int main()
{
    int i, j, x,y;
    printf("set x\n");
    scanf("%d", &x);
    printf("set y\n");
    scanf("%d", &y);

    int szach[size][size];
    for(i=0;i<size;i++) {  //zeroing array//
            for(j=0;j<size; j++) {
                    szach[i][j]=0; }}
    konik(szach, x, y, 1);

    for(int i=0;i<size;i++) {
            for(int j=0;j<size; j++) {
                    printf("%d\t",szach[j][i]); }
            printf("\n\n");}
    printf("\n");
    return 0;
}

A: It is probably a bad idea to simply brute-force, as the number of possible sequences can exceed 10^50 for 8x8 board.
Knight's tour article on wikipedia has decent information on the problem, I would recommend to start from there.
One of the most famous heuristics for finding Hamiltonian Path is the following: from any node u order the neighbours in non-decreasing order by their degrees in the graph. Let's say from u the knight can move to p and q (i.e. u has two neighbours), then in your recursion consider initially p if it has less available neighbours than q. This usually leads to to significant optimizations, especially if the graph has a lot of Hamilton Paths as in this case.
Regarding your code. You don't need to call done() everytime. If at any moment licz >= size*size, then you know that you found your answer. You can store a global boolean done instead for example. This should help a little bit, but won't help in all cases.
P.S. If you need any single solution for your project, I would recommend to store a single Hamilton cycle, and for any x,y just simply shift the sequence to get a valid solution.

A: This is by no means an answer, just an idea that might be helpful.
I remember that for some sizes a simple spiral pattern will fill the outer edge of the board and reduce the problem to a simpler one with size smaller by 4.
You can use this idea to simplify your problem. For example, fill a 8x3 and a 8x5 board instead of a 8x8 board (you will have to update your algorithm to look for suitable ending position).

A: ile's suggestions seem good. When I implemented just the one to consider first the candidates with lowest degree (number of possible moves from the position) in the graph (approximated by heading for the nearest of the four corners), the run time to find a solution for starting position x=2 and y=4 dropped from ten and a half hours to one minute and 15 seconds. The program changes are:
// arrays of possible knight moves, for example 2nd move is [1,2]
// rearranged so that adjacent moves differ by 45 angular degrees
int ruch_x[]={  2,  1, -1, -2, -2, -1,  1,  2};
int ruch_y[]={  1,  2,  2,  1, -1, -2, -2, -1};

#include <stdlib.h>

//licz - variable for counting knights moves//
void konik(int szach[][size], int x, int y, int licz)
{
    szach[x][y]=licz;
    if (licz<size*size)
    {   static char firstmove[2][2][2] = { 1, 0, 6, 7, 2, 3, 5, 4 };
        int m = firstmove[x<size/2][y<size/2][abs(size-1-x*2)<abs(size-1-y*2)];
        for (int s=0; s<=7; s++) //loop that checks every possible knight move//
        {   static int ply[8] = { 0, -1, 1, -2, 2, -3, 3, -4 };
            int i = m+ply[s];   // firstmove towards corner, then back and forth
            if (i < 0) i += 8;
            else
            if (i > 7) i -= 8;
            // checking if candidate ...
            if (x+ruch_x[i]>=0&&x+ruch_x[i]<size    // not outside of the board
             && y+ruch_y[i]>=0&&y+ruch_y[i]<size
             && szach[x+ruch_x[i]][y+ruch_y[i]]==0  // not already visited
               )
                konik(szach, x+ruch_x[i], y+ruch_y[i], licz+1);
        }
    }

    if (done(szach)==1) return; //checking if whole board is filled with numbers
                                //if yes then skip zeroing current move//
    szach[x][y]=0;
}

By the way, the original program's behavior was not strictly defined, because szach[x+ruch_x[i]][y+ruch_y[i]] was checked before the check that x+ruch_x[i], y+ruch_y[i] is not outside of the board array.

Posted on September 2 2008
Already a recognised agricultural process in the world of wine, the reputation of biodynamic farming in producing high quality produce is growing worldwide. In 2008, Mercanta began sourcing coffees from two biodynamic certified farms – Balmaadi in India and Camocim in Brazil.
What is biodynamic agriculture?
Sometimes referred to as 'super organic', biodynamic was arguably the world's first consciously organic farming system. It is founded on principles outlined in 1924 by Austrian philosopher, Rudolph Steiner, who acted in response to farmers worried about the destructive effect of chemicals on their land. Like modern organic farming, biodynamic farming eliminates the use of agrochemicals. It also adheres to a further strict set of principles that distinguishes it from conventional organics. These can be summarised as follows:
Soil regeneration – healthy soil is central to biodynamic farming. Biodynamic farmers approach the soil as a living environment, whose wellbeing depends on the quality, quantity and variety of bio-organisms such as bacteria, mushrooms and worms existing within it.
Biodynamic preparations – in order to maintain the soil's natural balance, farmers use nine specific preparations made from animal, vegetal and mineral extracts which are applied in homeopathic quantities (i.e. they are extremely diluted). This includes the practice of fermenting cow dung and powdered quartz inside a cow horn which is buried in the ground for six months.
Biodynamic sowing and planting calendar – biodynamic farmers adhere to a strict calendar which is produced each year and which is based on the cycles of the moon, planets and constellations. This highlights the best days for sowing, planting, digging and harvesting.
Self-sufficiency – a basic principle of biodynamics is to conceive of the farm as a self-contained, living entity. Each farm aims to function as a closed, balanced system, providing its own seeds, fertilisers and feeds.
Guiding philosophy – Rudolf Steiner believed that there was a spiritual dimension to agriculture that modern science ignored. He conceived biodynamic farming as part of a much broader spiritual philosophy, and it is often considered by its adherents to be not only a farming technique, but a way of life.
Biodynamic certification is regulated worldwide by Demeter (www.demeter.net). This means that, unlike conventional organic certification, the standards for biodynamic certification are the same in every country and biodynamic growing methods remain consistent worldwide.

Home / iPad / Apple's 13-inch M1 MacBook Pro: An enterprise buyer's review
Apple's 13-inch M1 MacBook Pro: An enterprise buyer's review
admin December 17, 2020	iPad Leave a comment 108 Views
When They Meant One More Thing, They Meant One More Big Thing.
Apple made groundbreaking announcements at its "One More Thing" event on November 10: The launch of the M1 chip, macOS Big Sur operating system, and a long-awaited update to the Mac line up. Apple takes its destiny into its own hands from silicon to services. By having complete control of the chip, operating system software, and hardware, Apple delivers exponential gains in performance, better value, longer battery life, and significant improvements to the Mac line up.
Mac mini, 13-inch MacBook Air, and the 13-inch MacBook Pro sport the new Apple-designed M1 chip (see Figure 1). This 5nm system on a chip (SOC) delivers Apple's own design and architecture which pulls the processor, GPU, DRAM, fabric, cache, Neural Engine and security features, all on one chip. With the power of 16 billion transistors, the chip blows away the competition when looking at performance per watt.
Figure 1. Inside Apple's M1 Silicon On Chip (SOC) Specifications
Compared To The Intel MacBook Pro 13″, The M1 MacBook Pro 13″ Has Many Advantages
When the M1 MacBook Pro 13″ is compared to the Intel MacBook Pro 13″, the obvious similarities come from the familiar chassis design and key display features (see Figure 2). Both models share:
Availability in Space Gray and Silver
13.3-inch LED-backlit display with In-plane switching (IPS) technology, wide color (P3) and True Tone
720p FaceTime HD camera
Wide stereo sound and support for Dolby Atmos playback
Figure 2. Everything You Need To Know About The M1 MacBook Pro 13″
Here are the differences between the two models (see Figure 3):
Figure 3. Side by Side Comparison of Intel-based vs M1 Apple SOC-based MacBook Pro 13″
Source: Constellation Research, Inc.
Overall, the M1 MacBook Pro beats out the existing Intel line up. However, a few areas of improvement for future releases include the need for a better than 720p FaceTime camera (though the M1's ISP does improve the performance of the 1.2 megapixel camera), Wi-Fi 6 support, and the lack of a touchscreen.
Compatibility With x86-64 Apps Remains A Work In Progress
Initial tests on the M1 MacBook Pro have yielded great performance and exponentially improved battery life when running native Apple apps. However, slight glitches and significant performance hits occurred with application crashes with some of the enterprise products from Microsoft including Microsoft Outlook, Microsoft Teams, and Microsoft Edge browsers. The Microsoft Office suite didn't show any lag at all when used and Microsoft Excel macros seemed to experience improved performance.
Other enterprise software such as Autodesk Revit, Avid ProTools, Google Drive File Stream, MatLab, Oracle VirtualBox, Parallels, and VMWare Fusion currently are not supported by the M1 chip. Initial experiences with much of the Adobe Creative Cloud suite show some compatibility issues with Rosetta 2 for Adobe AfterEffects, Illustrator, Indesign, Photoshop 2020, and Premier Pro. Ongoing fixes and updates can be found on the Adobe website.
Also: M1 MacBook Air review: Impressive, but doesn't beat my Intel MacBook Pro
Slack really slacked and needed a performance hit. Video software such as BlueJeans, GoToMeeting, WebEx, and Zoom all were quite laggy. Meanwhile, DJ controller software such as RekordBox by Pioneer wasn't working yet on Rosetta 2 or M1 as of this post. Enterprise clients should confirm which apps work with the new M1 architecture and ask for a roadmap from key vendors for M1 forward and backward compatibility on Rosetta 2.
Early adopters must determine the trade-off of native Apple performance versus x86-64 Intel compatibility. The independent crowdsourced site "Is Apple Silicon Ready" also confirmed some of the incompatibilities and performance issues with M1 and Rosetta 2 experienced in this review. (Note: this site is not an Apple-run or reviewed site, and the accuracy and timeliness of information it offers is not officially verified)
The Bottom Line: The New M1 Macs Are A Future-Proof Investment
The fully integrated control of the M1 chip, macOS BigSur, and Mac hardware kicks off the beginning of a new era for Apple. The venerable hardware innovator now has full control of its ability to differentiate on product, performance, price, and place. As Apple Silicon makes its way into the full line up of hardware, users can expect significant advantages over commodity and purpose built PCs. Moreover, the announcements made at the 2020 Worldwide Developers Conference and the November 10th event bring the convergence of iOS and macOS one step closer.
However, much work needs to be done on backward compatibility as early users and tests show a lot of broken apps to be addressed. Overall, the M1 MacBook Pro 13″, Mac mini, and MacBook Air are a wise investment into the future. In conversations with the major software vendors, Constellation expects backward compatibility to improve as major software vendors adjust and improve their offerings to support the new line up over the next 18 to 24 months.
Early adopters and Apple shops looking to modernize their computing should consider the M1 MacBook Pro 13″, Mac mini, and MacBook Air in their procurement refresh cycle plans and short lists over the next 24 months. Why? This is the next era of computing for Apple and the long-term benefits will significantly outweigh the costs.

The Continuing Importance of the International Criminal Court
Home/World Citizen Blog/The Continuing Importance of the International Criminal Court
The International Criminal Court (ICC) shines as an example of modern international law. There is nothing quite of its likeness in human history. The ability of a diverse international body to put individuals accused of crimes against humanity and genocide on trial is a great accomplishment of human civilization. The modernity of the International Criminal Court can also work to be one of its greatest flaws.
People tend to have a fixation on things in our past, and nostalgia can be a big factor in how people view their history. Collective memory intensifies this practice, and can reach back hundreds, if not thousands of years in order to create a homogenous national identity. The Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court (Rome Statute), which is the defining document from which the ICC draws its strength, was a treaty adopted on July 17, 1998, and it entered into effectiveness on July 1, 2002 (www.icc-cpi.int). Having been in proper effectiveness for only about 20 years gives the ICC little credit with the larger players in the field of international relations, and this limitation tends to be seen mostly within the types of cases that it prosecutes.
According to the Council on Foreign Relations, the ICC has indicted more than 40 individuals for crimes as outlined in the Rome Statute. Every single conviction has involved an individual from an African nation (www.cfr.org). There has been discussion for the ICC to investigate other instances of crimes against humanity, such as with the Rohingya crisis of South-East Asia. However, the fact that the only indicted individuals are from Africa has led to much opposition to the court, articulated with arguments that assert that the court has an African bias. The relative newness of the court means that realistically it can only take on cases that are feasible to prosecute, and the conflicts that have existed in some African countries provide an easier platform to try individuals without facing much opposition from a strong international player.
With each case and subsequent ruling, however, the ICC gains more and more clout as an international organization. This increasing relevance has served to actually spook some of the signatory nations who become fearful that ICC investigators will come to indict their citizens. This has led to some participating nations to either bar investigators from entering their country, as the current Trump administration has done in response to fears of U.S. service members being tried for alleged war crimes in Afghanistan (www.state.gov), or outright withdraw from the treaty itself such as in the case of the Philippine response to ICC investigation of alleged crimes committed under the guise of its "War on Drugs" campaign (www.icc-cpi.int).
The latter situation presents some interesting legal challenges on the issue jurisdiction, specifically on whether or not the ICC would still have jurisdiction to investigate crimes within a former signatory country that occurred while it was still an active member of the ICC. This view is argued by the ICC itself with respect to the Philippine situation, as it asserts that under the rules of the Rome Statute, any investigations that were undertaken by the ICC while a country was a signatory of the treaty, will not be affected upon a country's written declaration of its intent to remove itself from the Rome Statute (www.icc-cpi.int).
For all of its strengths and weaknesses, the ICC still stands as an important experiment. Is our current system of globalization and international law strong enough to support a system that has the unilateral power to try those who are accused of violating international human rights laws no matter what country they occurred in? We are not quite there yet it seems within our current system. There is still progress to be made, but progress is indeed currently being made in many areas of international law. However, time will tell if this current iteration of the ICC will keep its teeth long enough to become a cornerstone of the international law of the future, or if it will be stripped of its effectiveness before it can make a lasting mark.

This shortened 160m sloper is an ideal compromise antenna to get you active on Top Band. Overall length is 23 inches, schedule 40 pvc for extra durability. Includes 70 ft of wire (terminated with porcelain end insulator), grounding braid approx 12" with ring terminal.
Do you want decent performance on 160 meters?
If you have 45 feet you can be on top band with this fantastic reduced length sloper antenna. The feedpoint of this antenna needs to be up about 45 feet. The antenna itself slopes for 68 feet away from the feed. This antenna can handle up to 1 KW PEP on SSB. The 160m Reduced Half Sloper loads 120khz below 2.1:1SWR when properly trimed/tuned, and the entire 160m band 1.8-2.0 Mhz at 3.1:1 or less. As stated before, half the entire band is below 2.1:1 or less without a tuner. Slopers are generally omnidirectional with a bump in directivity in the direction of the slope.

Kellie Harrington gives her jewel and darling Portland Row its chance to shine
Olympic finalist cherished and loved by her own in Dublin's north inner city

Sat Aug 7 2021 - 01:00
Kellie Harrington's carriage awaits.
There is a choice: she could go for the fairytale, Cinderella-type glass coach. Or something more restrained in white or cream. A convertible landau, perhaps?
Portland Row has all the angles covered.
The women look across at the pristine horse transporter parked on the other side of street. It belongs to Michael Hanley, a neighbour who runs a horse-drawn carriage company. His wife Michelle is among the group discussing what they can do for the big homecoming.
The offer of a horse and carriage is there for Kellie. That goes without saying.
"I don't really see her seeing herself as a Cinderella. I don't think she'd want that," laughs Michelle. The women agree. "God no. Not the Cinderella. I'd say the white carriage or the cream, maybe," suggests one of them, doubtfully. "If she'd even want anything like that at all."
But it's a suggestion, one of many being bounced around Portland Row in Dublin 's north inner city as the street prepares to welcome home its Olympic heroine. The intense pride of the locals in one of their own is almost matched by their soaring excitement as boxer Kellie's gold medal final bout early on Sunday morning draws ever closer.
The residents' WhatsApp group has been hopping all week.
The helium balloons are due to arrive on Saturday (the private landlord at the apartments on the Summerhill Road junction is getting them in) and the bunting has been up since the Olympics started. They bought all the Tricolour bunting left in Carrolls and still hadn't enough. But community is strong in this part of the North Strand and Summerhill.
"We got the rest from Christy Burke's brother's funeral," explained Marie Harding.
Veteran city councillor Burke buried his brother Paddy three weeks ago. He lived behind the church on Seán McDermott Street and his neighbours put up green, white and orange bunting for him because he was a staunch republican. After a decent period of time they took it down and passed it on to Portland Row.
The North East Inner City taskforce is also expected to pitch in with more decorations.
There was talk of a big screen for the crack of dawn fight in Toyko, but hopes faded by the end of the week, what with the Covid and uncertainty about timing and numbers. At 4pm on Thursday afternoon residents held a short meeting at the houses beside the bronze statues of two little girls playing beds (hopscotch).
It was organised by "the women" and was about putting something in place for the local kids so they can enjoy Kellie's homecoming. They are still waiting to find out what sort of welcome is planned by Dublin City Council for Ireland's latest boxing medallist and if Portland Row is to be included in them.
Where Sunday morning is concerned, word is that there won't be a special screening.
The sporting success of this thoughtful, articulate and thoroughly decent young woman has thrown a welcome and positive spotlight on the proud community which made her
People are disappointed, but not that surprised. "I mean, the Tánaiste said 200 people outdoors. There's not even 200 people on this road, you know what I mean?" said Marie Harding. "We wouldn't get all the residents out anyway at six in the morning and if they're worried about crowds, sure the matches are back on in Croke Park and there's hundreds of people walking up and down here all the time. Can you imagine the excitement if they closed the road so we could watch Kellie?"
Catho Gavin from nearby Dunne Street says their world champion boxer was out at seven in the morning doing exercise classes with the local women during the lockdown. Great-grandmother Lily Fagan recalls how she also encouraged people to meet up with her for walks at the nearby Five Lamps because she wanted them to mind their mental health.
Eighty-four year old Lily is a media pro by now. She drapes the Tricolour around her shoulders and poses for photographs with practised ease. Kellie Harrington has given her jewel and darling Portland Row its chance to shine and make the headlines for all the right reasons. For once, they can showcase what they already know is so good about their close-knit, inner-city community.
The sporting success of this thoughtful, articulate and thoroughly decent young woman has thrown a welcome and positive spotlight on the proud community which made her. A community weary of being defined by sensationalist stories of gangland feuds and criminality.
"She's a great kid, a great person and a great inspiration," says Lily, proudly repeating Kellie's words for the umpteenth time to the umpteenth journalist: "She'd always say: 'I'm from the North Inner City. I'm from Portland Row'."
Lily buried her husband over 30 years ago and has two sons and two daughters, eight grandchildren and eight great grandchildren.
"Lily done her work alright for Ireland, " jokes one of the women.
"I worked up to 75 years of age, cleaning, scrubbing," she counters.
"That's what kept you going, Lily," chimes in another neighbour. "And she worked in Maguire and Patersons making the matches and thank God she never set fire to herself."
As for the boxing? "See my great granddaughter, Lily Mae? She wants to do it now. "
When Katie returned to her primary school in North William Street the girls were hanging on her every word. "She's such a hero to them in that school," said Helena Bartley. "But then, she does a lot for the local community. She came through a lot of the projects herself and she gives back."
When the the house in Buckingham Street burned down two years ago "she auctioned off one of her belts and the money she raised, she went across and gave it to the family. That's the type of person she is – you know what I mean?"
The residents are enjoying their time in the sun. The cars going by with drivers smiling and beeping their horns.

"Do know what, we were so low after that lockdown and my God, this is after lifting us. Like, Jesus, I feel like roaring crying. You feel like you're on cloud nine, don't you? It's amazing, the way that one person can lift you," said Berno, yet another Portland Road woman.
A few doors down, in the shadow of the Five Lamps, Kellie's Ma and Da are leaning into a parked car outside their house, talking to someone in the passenger seat. Yvonne turns around, tears in her eyes.
She had just met Bernard Smyth (71) who ran a successful fireplace business in the inner city for many years. "We're part of his care team from Right at Home," says Áine, who is with her colleague Sola. "Bernard is following Kellie on the telly and he really wanted to come down so he could see the house and congratulate them."
They're great neighbours. They're priceless. And they're great crack. They've had the journalists in knots
Christy and Yvonne realise his business was around the corner from their first house.
"Do you remember the Long Island Bar facing it?" she asks
"Do I what?" whispers Bernard, a huge smile breaking across his face.
"He's recovering from a stroke. We'll have him walking by Christmas," smiles Áine.
"Will you say a big prayer for Kellie?" asks Yvonne.
It's been hectic at the house. They've hardly had a wink of sleep.
A fella arrived up from Tipperary with a bottle of Prosecco. People are dropping in cards and gifts.
"All right! Christy. Nice one!"
They're can't wait for the homecoming, but don't know the day yet. It'll be wonderful for Portland Row. "They're great neighbours. They're priceless. And they're great crack. They've had the journalists in knots."
Christy hopes things will be kept fairly simple.
Yvonne agrees. "Like, there's people from the area that have died; it would be very disrespectful. They couldn't go to their families' funerals. Kellie wouldn't like that either. She's Covid conscious all the time. Working in the hospital, she'll be very conscious of it."
There have been some strange questions. Two lads arrived from a newspaper and "they wanted to photograph us sprinkling around holy water from Lourdes, " laughed Christy. They said no.
"Then he wanted Christy to water the plants with it," said Yvonne, shaking her head in disbelief. "I think it's because I say I go out into the garden and pray when Kellie is on – as any mother would. But I'm not hugely religious: if you do a good turn for someone, that's my belief."
The front window is plastered with good luck cards. They ran out of space when a teacher came up from St Columba's on the North Strand with ones done by the children. So Christy made a big wooden display board with a glass front and put it up on the outside wall.
"Sweet, isn't it?"
When the Dubs won the five in a row, the landmark Five Lamps shone blue.
Cllr Christy Burke has called on the city council to turn them silver or gold, whichever it is, when the North Inner City's Olympian comes home.
Proper order too.

Algae Emits Methane And Offsets Its CO2 Uptake, Study
Source: Sonja Filitz via Shutterstock
A new study suggests that although algae is known to absorb CO2, it also emits methane – a more potent greenhouse gas (GHG).
The study, published in Nature Communications, was co-led by Christoph Humborg, scientific director of Stockholm University Baltic Sea Centre and focused on bladderwrack forests.
Coastal ecosystems are known to draw in and store vast quantities of CO2 from the air (often referred to as blue carbon), thus acting as large carbon sinks.
As such, there is much effort focused on restoring these ecosystems in various parts of the world, as a natural means of combating global warming.
Algae is considered to be a particularly potent carbon sink and is, therefore, even viewed as a one of the key blue carbon ecosystems globally.
However, the team of scientists discovered that these algae create pockets of sediment where microorganisms that produce methane can be found.
The same microorganisms, called archaea, were also found on floating filamentous algae, as well as on organic matter associated with dense populations of bladderwrack.
Relevant: Microalgae Found To Remove Thousands Of Tons Of Carbon
According to the study, the significant carbon uptake of bladderwrack forests was confirmed and estimated to be roughly 0.52 tons CO2 per hectare per year.
However, the methane emissions offset some of this uptake and the scientists calculated the net carbon uptake to be reduced to 0.38 tons of CO2 equivalent per hectare and year.
Thus, as the importance of blue carbon and awareness of the role of marine habitats in mitigating the climate crisis increase, it is just as imperative that we consider the bigger picture and take into account the fluxes of GHG.
"Caring for and restoring macroalgae habitats could still be important from a climate perspective. Our study shows that these environments are net carbon sinks, just not as large as has sometimes been suggested", Christoph Humborg said.

Cal Neva. I'll be waiting. See ya there!
This board was put online in December, 2005. BC Dave, Stan_Allen and I have been members since then and Alison joined us in January, 2006. I guess that makes us the founding founders and mother. Oh, that could sound better. Other prolific posters that have been with us since 2005/06 are Hawk, JD, Remano, Mammothgambler, Jerry and CaSwede.
Should we instigate a ranking system?
If so, how many ranks?
Minimum number of posts to attain each rank?
What should we call these ranks?
I better start watching my rear as you are gaining on me. Speaking of rear what has happened to - spank me Alison?
I better get posting. Dont want anyone to catch up to me! Unfortunatley times have been hard and i havent been to reno in over a year. I logged in online and no offers from the pep since it has been so long. I do have a reservation for New Years at the Pep, but most likely we will have to cancel. Not to stoked about it. Hope everyone is doing good.

I was wondering if CaSwede's post was going to bring you back out of the hinterland. Nice to hear from you and it's always a thrill for us guys to see your Avatar brightening our pages.
Sorry to hear things haven't been at their best for you. I know I speak for all of us in wishing you much better days ahead.
How about putting a page end on the end of Mammoth's Mammoth post so we can read recent posts without scrolling thru twenty five thousand dollars worth of jackpots I did NOT GET.
Oh and John....there's a parrot special on tonight on PBS. 8:00 in my area.
But I doubt there;s much you didn;t already know. Maybe Charlie would like to watch it.
JD, I'm afraid I can't help you, but I can sympathize. That is technical stuff that only the WebMaster (or some hacker) can do. I draw funny pictures and can edit posts but I hope I don't have to do the latter.
I'll run your suggestion by John, via email, in case he missed your post.
Meh - ranking, shmanking; that's my input. I'm just pleased to be considered an "old timer" - it's both honor and burden, rolled into one.
JD, you are obliged to look at all those jackpots just to read a one-sentence response; it's an incentive system to gamble more!

Yang Jin-yul, the executive vice president and head of the hydrogen business division at Korea Gas Corp., speaks during an interview with The Korea Herald. (Kogas)
Korea Gas Corp. was born in the aftermath of the global oil crises of the 1970s, with a mission to lead a fuel transition to natural gas.
Nearly four decades later, the company is being asked to step up, as South Korea plans another grand energy transition to hydrogen.
"In the aftermath of the global oil crisis, Korea decided to switch its national fuel to natural gas and formed Kogas (in 1983). Since then, Kogas led the natural gas transition and experienced every step along the way," Yang Jin-yul, the executive vice president and head of the hydrogen business division at Kogas, told the Korea Herald.
Kogas built Korea's natural gas infrastructure from scratch. From countries thousands of miles away such as Qatar, Australia and the United States, it brought the fuel in by ship. At home, the firm laid out a network of pipelines that now spans some 4,945 kilometers across the nation.
After watching Kogas making money with natural gas shipped across the ocean, private companies such as Posco, SK and GS have jumped into the business one by one since 2005.
Yang says this is the exact scenario Kogas is aiming for with hydrogen.
"The role of Kogas, as a public company, is to set an example. It's our mission to develop a hydrogen business model that private companies can benchmark and follow," the 54-year-old hydrogen expert said.
Under the firm's blueprint, Kogas will invest roughly 37 trillion won to build solar and wind farms worth 17.1 gigawatts overseas by 2030. With the green energy generated, it would be able to produce 1.21 million tons of green hydrogen a year by 2040, which will be transported to Korea for local consumption. The green hydrogen business is projected to generate 4.5 trillion won in revenue.
"Right now, the industry doesn't know which is the best way to transport and store hydrogen. So private companies are asking, 'Is the hydrogen business profitable?' Kogas will find out and offer the most realistic option," Yang said.
As hydrogen is too bulky in a gaseous state, it is currently converted and chilled into liquid ammonia at below minus 33 degrees Celsius. This method can utilize the existing infrastructure of the global ammonia industry and therefore doesn't require additional investments.
But turning hydrogen into liquid ammonia and returning it to hydrogen is energy-intensive and drives up the cost of hydrogen.
Yang says the long-term solution is to chill hydrogen into pure liquid at minus 253 degrees Celsius. The problem is, there is no ship designed to transport liquid hydrogen yet.
"Private companies know that pure liquid hydrogen is the ultimate answer, but they're currently considering liquid ammonia because there's no ship. This is why Kogas is reviewing (to order) a liquid hydrogen carrier. Kogas will set a precedent."
As for the vessels to carry hydrogen, South Korea has a competitive advantage, being home to the world's top-ranked shipyards.
The real challenge is the source technology to liquidate hydrogen, Yang stressed.
"No matter how much hydrogen Korea imports, the country doesn't have the technology to liquidate it. Without it, Korea's retail of liquid hydrogen will be at the mercy of the technology of Germany's Linde or France's Air Liquide," he said, referring to global leaders in the liquid hydrogen field.
"We must localize the technology, or will lose the opportunity to take initiative."
Unlike oil and natural gas, hydrogen is everywhere. This means a lot for South Korea, a resource-poor country that imports all the fossil fuel it consumes.
"Until now, countries with oil and natural gas had the greatest say, and there was nothing Korea could do about it. However, hydrogen is energy which countries with the most advanced technologies can excel at. Korea must take this opportunity to lead the new energy paradigm."

Pinched Nerve is commonly used to describe the pain associated with a variety of conditions from subluxations, to tunnel syndromes to the referred pain from trigger points.
It is very important that the cause of any form of pain be properly diagnosed. This is especially important when nerves are affected as severe or long term irritation, or compression, of a nerve can lead to permanent nerve damage. If you have been told that you have a "pinched nerve" it is very important that you seek professional care from a doctor of chiropractic as soon as possible.

Media Advisory: Pelvic floor disorders linked to mode of delivery among first-time mothers
Nine-year, NIH-funded study suggests that C-sections present lower risk compared to vaginal delivery
Credit: Stock Image
A first-time mother's risk of pelvic floor disorders is strongly associated with how her baby is delivered, according to a study funded by the National Institutes of Health. Pelvic floor disorders are thought to result from weakening or injury of the muscles, ligaments and connective tissue in the lowest part of the pelvis. The study, funded by NIH's Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development, was led by Victoria Handa, M.D., of Johns Hopkins Bayview Medical Center, Baltimore, and appears in the Journal of the American Medical Association.
Researchers enrolled more than 1,500 women into the study after their first birth; 778 of the women delivered by cesarean, 565 by spontaneous vaginal delivery, and 185 by operative vaginal birth (delivery assisted by forceps or other devices to extract the fetus). After up to nine years of observation, researchers found that women who delivered by Cesarean were at approximately half the risk of developing stress urinary incontinence (incontinence resulting after a cough, sneeze or other activity) and overactive bladder, compared to women who had a spontaneous vaginal birth. Their risk of pelvic organ prolapse (when the cervix and uterus drop into the vagina and protrude through the vaginal opening) was 70-percent lower, compared to the same group. Women who had operative vaginal delivery were almost twice as likely to experience anal incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse, compared to those who delivered by cesarean.
According to the study authors, earlier studies had linked pelvic floor disorders to childbirth, but little was known about how the mode of delivery might influence their development. Treatments for pelvic floor disorders include exercises to strengthen pelvic floor muscles, medication for bladder control problems and surgery to repair the pelvic floor and provide support for internal organs.
