Five (or more) of the following symptoms have been present during the same 2- week period and represent a change from previous functioning; at least one of the symptoms is either (1) depressed mood or (2) loss of interest or pleasure.
depressed mood most of the day, nearly every day, as indicated by either subjective report (e.g., feels sad or empty) or observation made by others (eg., appears tearful). Note: In children and adolescents, can be irritable mood.
significant weight loss when not dieting or weight gain (e.g., a change of more than 5% of body weight in a month), or decrease or increase in appetite nearly every day. Note: In children, consider failure to make expected weight gaines.
The symptoms are not better account for by Bereavement, i.e., after the loss of a loved one, the symptoms persist for longer than 2 months or are characterized by marked functional impairment, morbid preoccupation with worthlessness, suicidal ideation, psychotic symptoms, or psychomotor retardation.
The mood in a Major Depressive Episode is often described by the person as depressed, sad, hopeless, discouraged, or "down in the dumps." In some cases, sadness may be denied at first, but may subsequently be elicited by interview (e.g., by pointing out that the individual looks as if he or she is about to cry). In some individuals who complain of feeling "blah," having no feelings, or feeling anxious, the presence of a depressed mood can be inferred from the person's facial expression and demeanor. Some individuals emphasize somatic complaints (e.g., bodily aches and pains) rather than reporting feelings of sadness. Many individuals report or exhibit increased irritability (e.g., persistent anger, a tendency to respond to events with angry outbursts or blaming others, or an exaggerated sense of frustration over minor matters). In children and adolescents, an irritable or cranky mood may develop rather than a sad or dejected mood.
A careful review is essential to elicit symptoms of a Major Depressive Episode. Reporting may be compromised by difficulties in concentrating, impaired memory, or a tendency to deny, discount, or explain away symptoms. Information from additional informants can be especially helpful in clarifying the course of current or prior Major Depressive Episodes and in assessing whether that have been any Manic or Hypomanic Episodes. Because Major Depressive Episodes can begin gradually, a review of clinical information that focuses on the worst part of the current episode may be most likely to detect the presence of symptoms. The evaluation of the symptoms of a Major Depressive Episode is especially difficult when they occur in an individual who also has a general medical condition (e.g., cancer, stroke, myocardial infarction, diabetes).
By definition, a Major Depressive Episode is not due to the direct physiological effects of a drug of abuse (e.g., in the context of Alcohol Intoxication or Cocaine Withdrawal), to the side effects of medications or treatments (e.g., steroids), or to toxin exposure. Similarly, the episode is not due to the direct physiological effects of a general medical condition (e.g., hypothyroidism). Moreover, if the symptoms begin within 2 months of the loss of a loved one and do not persist beyond these 2 months, they are generally considered to result from Bereavement unless they are associated with marked functional impairment or include morbid preoccupation with worthlessness, suicidal ideation, psychotic symptoms, or psychomotor retardation.
Individuals with a Major Depressive Episode frequently present with tearfulness, irritability, brooding, obsessive remination, anxiety, phobias, excessive worry over physical health, and complaints of pain (e.g., headaches or joint pain, abdominal or other pains). During a Major Depressive Episode, some individuals have Panic Attacks that occur in a pattern that meets criteria for Panic Disorder. In children, separation anxiety may occur. Some individuals note difficulty in intimate relationships, less satisfying social interactions, or difficulties in sexual functioning (e.g., anorgasmia in women or erectile dysfunction in men). There may be marital problems (e.g., divorce), occupational problems (e.g., loss of job), academic problems (e.g., truancy, school failure), Alcohol or other Substance Abuse, or increased utilization of medical services. The most serious consequence of a Major Depressive Episode is attempted or completed suicide. Suicide risk is especially high for individuals with psychotic features, a history of previous suicide attempts, a family history of completed suicides, or concurrent substance use. There may also be an increased rate of premature death from general medical conditions. Major Depressive Episodes often follow psychological stressors (e.g., the death of a loved one, marital separation, divorce). Childbirth may precipitate a Major Depressive Episode, in which case the specifier With Postpartum Onset is noted.
No laboratory findings that are diagnostic of a Major Depressive Episode have been identified. However, a variety of laboratory findings have been noted to be abnormal more often in groups of individuals with Major Depressive Episodes compared with control subjects. It appears that the same laboratory abnormalities are associated with a Major Depressive Episode regardless of whether the episode is part of the Major Depressive, Bipolar I, or Bipolar II Disorder. Most laboratory abnormalities are state dependent (i.e., affected by the presence or absence of depressive symptoms). Laboratory tests are most likely to be abnormal in episodes with melancholic or psychotic features and in more severely depressed individuals.
Sleep EEG abnormalities may be evident in 40%-60% of outpatients and in up to 90% of inpatients with a Major Depressive Episode. The most frequently associated polysomnographic findings include 1) sleep continuity disturbances, such as prolonged sleep latency, increased intermittent wakefulness, and early morning awakening; 2) reduced non-rapid eye movement (NREM) stages 3 and 4 sleep (slow-wave sleep) , with a shift in slow-wave activity away from the first NREM period; 3) decreased rapid eye movement (REM) latency (i.e., shortened duration of the first NREM period); 4) increased phasic REM activity (i.e., the number of actual eye movements during REM); 5) increased duration of REM sleep early in the night. There is evidence that these sleep abnormalities may persist after clinical remission or precede the onset of the initial Major Depressive Episode among those at high risk for a Mood Disorder (e.g, first-degree family members of individuals with Major Depressive Disorder).
The pathophysiology of a Major Depressive Episode may involve a dysregulation of a number of neurotransmitter systems, including the serotonin, norephinephrine, dopamine, acetycholine, and gamma-ambiobutyric acid systems. There is also evidence of alterations of several neuropeptides, including corticotropin-releasing hormone. In some depressed individuals, hormonal disturbances have been observed, including elevated glucocorticoid secretion (e.g., elevated urinary free cortisol levels or dexamethasone nonsuppression of plasma cortisol) and blunted growth hormone, thyroid-stimulating hormone, and prolactin responses to various challenge tests. Functional brain imaging studies document alteration sin cerebral blood flow and limbic regions and decreased blood flow in the lateral prefrontal cortex. Depression beginning in late life is associated with alterations in brain structure, including periventricular vascular changes. None of these changes are present in all individuals with a Major Depressive Episode, however, nor is any particular disturbance specific to depression.
Culture can influence the experience and communication of symptoms of depression. Under-diagnosis or misdiagnosis can be reduced by being alert to ethnic and cultural specificity in the presenting complaints of a Major Depressive Episode, For example, in some cultures, depression may be experience largely in somatic terms, rather than with sadness or guilt. Complaints of "nerves" and headaches (in Latino and Mediterranean cultures), of weakness, tiredness, or "imbalance" (in Chinese and Asian cultures), of problems of the "heart" (in Middle Eastern cultures), or of being "heart-broken" (among Hopi) may express the depressive experience. Such presentations combine features of teh Depressive, Anxiety, and Somatoform Disorders. Cultures also may differ in judgements about the seriousness of experiencing or expressing dysphoria (e.g., irritability may provoke greater concern than sadness or withdrawal). Culturally distinctive experiences (e.g., fear of being hexed or bewitched, feelings of "heat in the head" or crawling sensations of worms or ants, or vivid feelings of being visited by those who have died) must be distinguished from actual hallucinations or delusions that may be part of a Major Depressive Episode, With Psychotic Features. It is also imperative that the clinician not routinely dismiss a symptom merely because it is viewed as the "norm" for a culture.
The core symptoms of a Major Depressive Episode are the same for children and adolescents, although there is data that suggest that the prominence of characteristic symptoms may change with age. Certain symptoms such as somatic complaints, irritability, and social withdrawal are particularly common in children, whereas psychomotor retardation, hypersomnia, and delusions are less common in prepuberty than in adolescence and adulthood. In prepubertal children, Major Depressive Episodes occur more frequently in conjunction with other mental disorders (especially Disruptive Behavior Disorders, Attention-Deficit Disorders, and Anxiety Disorders) than in isolation. In adolescents, Major Depressive Episodes are frequently associated with Disruptive Behavior Disorders, Attention-Deficit Disorders, Anxiety Disorders, Substance-Related Disorders, and Eating Disorder. In elderly adults, cognitive symptoms (e.g., disorientation, memory loss, and distractibility) may be particularly prominent.
Women are at significantly greater risk than men to develop Major Depressive Episodes at some point during their lives, with the greatest differences found in studies conducted in the United States and Europe. This increased differential risk emerges during adolescence and may coincide with the onset of puberty. Thereafter, a significant proportion of women report a worsening of the symptoms of a Major Depressive Episode several days before the onset of menses. Studies indicate that depressive episodes occur twice as frequently in women as in men.
Symptoms of a Major Depressive Episode usually develop over days to weeks. A prodromal period that may include anxiety symptoms and mild depressive symptoms may last for weeks to months before the onset of a full Major Depressive Episode. The duration of a Major Depressive Episode is also variable. An untreated episode typically lasts 4 months or longer, regardless of age at onset. In a majority of cases, there is complete remission of symptoms, and functioning returns to the premorbid level. In a significant proportion of cases (perhaps 20%-30%), some depressive symptoms insufficient to meet full criteria for a Major Depressive Episode may persist for months to years and may be associated with some disability or distress. Partial remission following a Major Depressive Episode appears to be predictive of a similar pattern after subsequent episodes. In some individuals (5%-10%), the full criteria for a Major Depressive Episode continue to be met for 2 or more years.
A Major Depressive Episode must be distinguished from a Mood Disorder Due to a General Medical Condition. The appropriate diagnosis would be Mood Disorder Due to a General Medical Condition if the mood disturbance is judged to be the direct physiological consequence of a specific general medical condition (e.g., multiple sclerosis, stroke, hypothyroidism). This determination is based on history, laboratory findings, or physical examination. If both a Major Depressive Episode and a general medical condition are present but it is judged that the depressive symptoms are not the direct physiological consequence of the general medical condition, then the primary Mood Disorder is recorded.
Finally, periods of sadness are inherent aspects of the human experience. These periods should not be diagnosed as a Major Depressive Episode unless criteria are met for severity (i.e., five out of nine symptoms), duration (i.e., most of the day, nearly every day for at least 2 weeks), and clinically significant distress or impairment. The diagnosis Depressive Disorder Not Otherwise Specified may be appropriate for presentations of depressed mood with clinically significant impairment that do not meet the criteria for duration or severity.
When the Limbic system fails for what ever cause, it creates a behavior cluster called Major Depressive Disorder. For instance, Bipolar Depressive cluster appears to be the same as Unipolar Depression. Many Bipolar depressed patients never experience hypomania or mania. Diagnosis into artificially pigeon holes is not necessarily important.
The important point is the mechanism that creates the Depressive Syndrome. The earlier the onset of depression and the more cycled the depression, the more likely that ion flux in the Limbic System is the cause. In this case, an ionic flux modulator is medicated such as Lithium or Anticonvulsants (i.e. Lamotrigine/Valproic Acid/Carbamazepine/etc.) Family history is usually positive.
Major Depressive clusters that are not cyclical are those with an onset later in life (age of onset > 40), and usually related to a medical disorder such as Diabetes Mellitus Type II. They are often caused by a deficiency of a neurotransmitter modulator, such as serotonin. In this case, a Serotonin Re-uptake Inhibitor is medicated, such as Lexapro/Celexa/Prozac/etc.

The Massachusetts Housing and Shelter Alliance's "Pay for Success" program is one of the top 10 finalists for the $100,000 Drucker Prize award.
The Drucker Institute recognizes non-profit organizations at a national level. Peter Drucker helped create philosophical and practical base for contemporary business and established the institute that has awarded the prize over the last 27 years.
MHSA's Pay for Success Initiative is the first program of its kind in Massachusetts. The program uses a mix of philanthropic and private investments to provides permanent supportive housing to chronically homeless individuals. Permanent supportive housing gives these individuals stable homes and the resources they need to maintain housing and address medical needs. They're also less reliant on public resources like emergency shelters.
Pay for Success is based on MHSA's Home and Healthy for Good program which has helped over 1,000 chronically homeless people find permanent housing. Pay for Success continues this work and, according to MHSA September Fact Sheet, the program has housed 729 tenants.
Between 200 and 800 organizations apply for the Drucker Prize every year, starting in February. In 2018, 509 applications were submitted. The first round of applications are vetted by a team of judges made up of Ph.D. students from Clermont University. The top 50 semi-finalists are then chosen to go through a second round where their executive directors or CEO complete the next part of the application.
From the pool of 50 semi-finalists, Drucker Institute's staff narrows it down to the final 10. The final 10 went through a panel of external judges in early September who will select the winner of the cash prize. Once the winner has been chose, the Drucker house will host a celebratory gathering of about 30 people to present the check and celebrate the organization's success.
If MHSA is awarded the $100,000 cash prize, they plan to develop new ideas and innovations while developing measures and more efficient approaches to end homelessness.


So a bunch of people on Twitter have been using this application called Formspring to let people ask them questions in an easy format. So I thought I'd follow their lead.
It's so amazing when people comment on a post. It means the world to me when people reply. So here's a chance for something a little more open-ended.
So this is a short little post to invite you to ask me questions…I'll post some or all of the response on this blog. Ask away!

"For I'll be your prince, and you'll be my…dwarf."
– The Prince's tune after receiving a surprise audience
I have a confession to make: I feel like I skimped out on Thumbelina's origins last month. Had circumstances not prevented me from doing so, I would have done a deep dive into other thumb-sized characters in folklore around the world, how they fed into her creation, and the similarities and differences between them. Well this month's review isn't gonna leave the history buffs high and dry, baby. I'm going the full hog with Snow White, one of the most iconic fairy tales with a rich, detailed historical background to match, so strap in!
The Fairest One of All might just hold the record for most variants of her story worldwide. In the Aarne-Thompson-Uther classification of folklore, she has a category all to herself! Richilde, Gold-tree and Silver-tree, Myrsina, The Young Slave, Bella Venezia, Bright Star of Ireland, Hajir, La petite Toute-Belle, Der zauberspiegel, Rose-Neige, Lé Roi Pan, La hermosa hijastra, and Anghjulina are but a few folktales from around the globe that retell Snow White's adventures. Each one shares the tropes common to the story we know (a jealous queen, a magical fairness-rating artifact, multiple assassination attempts, poisoned objects, glass coffins, a prince partly responsible for waking her, etc.) though the details vary. For example, the dwarfs who take Snow White in aren't always dwarfs, or even miners. Sometimes they're robbers, sometimes they're the twelve months personified, sometimes they're purely magical characters like djinns and dragons!
The biggest revelation one can take away from these retellings, however, is that Snow White usually isn't menaced by a wicked stepmother but her own mother. Indeed, the German oral tale recorded by the Brothers Grimm in 1812 had the evil Queen be Snow White's birth mother, until they revised it seven years later to keep the fable more in line with their patriarchal beliefs. See, Jacob and Wilhelm envisioned motherhood as something pure and infallible. They didn't want to rock the familial boat by suggesting mothers could be capable of spite and cruelty. So they pinned the queen's jealousy and murderous tendencies on a figure that was already on the outs with the family unit, one seen as new, unfamiliar and untrustworthy: the stepmother. It also doesn't help that the Queen is the most proactive character in the story, spinning the narrative that clever women with agency and authority are evil, self-serving and dangerous. Between this, Cinderella, and Hansel and Gretel, it's not much of a stretch to say that the Grimms are the source of the evil stepmother/queen stereotype that's plagued so many narratives and even negatively colors real women to this day.
Why no, I'm not at all bitter that everything Hilary warned us about could have been avoided if everyone listened to her instead of The Former Guy yelling about periods and emails, thanks for asking.
As for her origins, Snow White and her assorted fair counterparts have roots going all the way back to Ovid's Metamorphoses. One story featured within, the legend of Chione (whose name translates to "Snow", by the way) is about a woman described as the most beautiful in the land, which earns her the enmity of the goddess Diana and the lust of gods Apollo and Mercury. Apollo visits Chione disguised as an old woman and…has his way with her, as deities do (blegh). One could also draw parallels to Adam and Eve and the infamous apple, if you're willing to dig that deep.
That's not the half of it, though. Scholars may have found precedence that the tale of Snow White might be based on actual historical figures. According to German historian Eckhard Sander, young countess Margaretha von Waldeck fits the bill for a real life Snow White. She was renowned for her beauty, raised by her stepmother, her father owned several copper mines that employed child labor (which explains the dwarfs), she had to travel to the next kingdom "seven hills" over for a goodwill mission, and she died tragically young; the rumor circulating the court was that she was poisoned. Another theory that was initially tongue-in-cheek but turned out to have some credibility was that Snow White was inspired by Baroness Maria Sophia Margarethe Catharine of Lohr. Mirrors from Lohr were said to always speak the truth thanks to their high quality, hence the Magic Mirror. One such Lohr mirror that still exists was owned by Maria's stepmother, Claudia Elizabeth von Reichenstein. Claudia is described as a domineering woman who favored the children from her first marriage. There's a history of nightshade poison growing in abundance in Lohr, a mining town stood close to there, and the glass coffin may be another nod to the city's famous glassworks. While there are sound arguments disproving these hypotheses, I find it fascinating that Snow White has taken such root into culture as a whole that historians and folklorists alike are willing to connect the dots between the story and factual occurrences.
When it comes to modern iterations, though, the Disney film is the one that obviously stands foremost in the public consciousness. It's inspired nearly every adaptation going forward since 1937, and Faerie Tale Theatre's is no exception…


I've read on multiple occasions that plenty of options where to be found there, but my Tools menu does not feature such an item. (I installed the pale moon controler addon just in case I missed something and it was (now) separated, but that's obviously not the case.) This was of course done on a brand new profile (though same result when importing my FF profile).
Any idea why this would happen? Why could I have done wrong for this to happen? I downloaded the source for 24.6.1 and did a pretty basic compilation, pretty much "make -f client.mk build && make -f client.mk install" (though I can share the PKGBUILD and/or mozbuild if that can help).
I am not familiar with mozilla's source code/build procedure, but I have compiled FF before without issue (AFAIK). Is there anything specific that needs to be done for the palemoon's statusbar (options) to be featured?
You must also initiate the packaging stage by cding to the build dir and invoking "make package".
Although, AFAICS "make install" will still not do what's needed to include PM's statusbar. While "make package" does it, it also creates an archive, which isn't what I'm looking for here (I want to create the archive myself, or have my package manager tool do it more precisely). Shouldn't "make install" also take care of installing everything that's needed? After, that is a legitimate way to install PM?
Right now I've ended up doing a "make install" and then adding files from statusbar/distribution into usr/lib/palemoon, which seems to do the trick.
A lot more is done in the packaging stage than just the status bar inclusion. While you can install it from the build tree directly with make install, you're not getting everything set up as-intended. E.g. jar packaging is also don in the packaging stage; you may end up with flat chrome format instead if you "make install' which is definitely suboptimal.
The normal way to go about installing Pale Moon is to create a package first, then install said package.

The Mozilla codebase is quite different from conventional Unix/Linux projects where the locations are hardcoded into the binary via the "--prefix" argument to configure. The binaries generated thus can be moved around quite easily, making installation and usage easier.
Also, you can unpack the archive yourself if that's needed, and run whatever tools you need to run them on.

Students Help Fellow Students Stay in School at TSU
August 30, 2013 Emmanuel Freeman
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (TSU News Service) – While educators are praising President Obama's recently announced blueprint for making college more affordable, that announcement was not an immediate music to Dimetrius James II's ears.
The junior Mass Communications major at Tennessee State University had just hours to come up with nearly $5,000 left on his fees and tuition or he would be dropped from his classes and sent home packing.
"I have never been so concerned, worried and almost frustrated," said the St. Louis native, as he was about to be purged by the registrar's office. "I had no where to turn; time was running out; and I couldn't call my parents because they are both unemployed."
As the cost to attend college continues to spiral upward, James and many students like him who yearn for an education but lack the means to support their dream, face an unlikely future.
But then it does not have to be this way, according to a group of other TSU students.
"To see our fellow students come this far and only to be turned away and cut short their dream for an education is just not fair," said Devonte Johnson, president of the Student Government Association.
In what has been described as a "students helping students" initiative, and for the second year in a row, the SGA set aside funds from its institutional appropriation to help students like James who cannot meet their full fees.
At a gathering on campus this morning, the SGA president, accompanied by other officers of the student group, presented a check for $17,000 to TSU President, Dr. Glenda Glover to cover the extra expenses for 75 students who had a 4:30 p.m. deadline to come up with their balances or be dropped.
"I am very proud of our students to see the need to come to the aid of their fellow students," said Dr. Glover, a TSU alumna, who recalled being nearly purged as a student because she did not have her full fees. "I know the feeling of coming this far and being told you are going to be dropped, but thanks to an organization, I was able to stay in school."
Surrounded by other senior University administrators, the President thanked the SGA and TSU students, who she said, could have spent their funds for other activities, but felt helping their fellow students was a better use for the money.
Now James, who said he only heard about the SGA assistance this morning, can sit easy.
"This is a major help and very thoughtful of our student leadership," James said. "I am very thankful to them and our financial aid office for all the help that is going to help me stay in school."

WhatsApp, which began testing its payments service in India with 1 million users in early 2018, can finally start to expand the feature to more users in the world's second largest internet market.
National Payments Corporation of India (NPCI), the body that operates the widely popular UPI payments infrastructure, said on Thursday evening that it has granted approval to WhatsApp to roll out UPI-powered payments in India.
Like Google, Samsung, and a number of other firms, WhatsApp has built its payments service atop UPI, a payments infrastructure built by a coalition of large banks in India. NPCI said WhatsApp, which has amassed over 400 million users in India, can expand payments to its users in a "graded manner" and to start with, it can only roll out the payments service to 20 million users and has to work with multiple banking partners.
A WhatsApp spokesperson in India did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Google and Walmart currently dominate the mobile payments market in India with roughly 40% of the UPI market share. UPI has emerged as the most popular digital payments method in India, thanks in part to New Delhi's abrupt move to invalidate more than 85% of the paper cash circulation in the nation in late 2016.

news, latest-news, canberra raiders, raiders, nrl, braddon, raiders centre of excellence, josh hodgson, andrew barr
It will be a few weeks before they can use the training paddock, but Canberra Raiders co-captain Josh Hodgson is excited about opening their centre of excellence with all it's bells and whistles. While the Raiders have already started using the gymnasium, Chief Minister Andrew Barr will open the $19 million Braddon facility on Friday. The funding was split three ways in an historic cross-border agreement. Barr's government chipped in $5 million, the NSW government $4 million and the Raiders coughed up the rest. While the CoE is based in the ACT, the Raiders will use it to service rugby league across the surrounding regions in country NSW as well. It's got everything from cryogenic chambers to physiotherapy facilities to meeting rooms to a television recording studio. MORE CANBERRA SPORT The Raiders staff, including chief executive Don Furner, laid the turf in early January, but it's recently been top-seeded with a winter grass and they need to wait for that to establish itself before they can start training on their new field. They'll continue to do their on-field work at Bruce, but everything else will be done at Braddon. It's the perfect boost for the team on the eve of the 2020 NRL season as they look to go one step further than last year's runner-up finish. Hodgson felt they wouldn't be the only ones who would be impressed by it once it opens. "It's a fantastic joint, we're a very lucky bunch. It's got absolutely everything you need. You name it, it's got it," he said. "We're very spoilt. Once the pictures come out of the place, I'm sure everyone will be blown away by how good it actually is." Hodgson said there was nothing wrong with their old facilities at Bruce, but the ones at Braddon would allow the team to go to the next level. There's already a massive buzz around the club after making last year's grand final. Many have tipped them to end their premiership drought, which stretches back to 1994. "As a team you want the best because you want to strive to be the best," Hodgson said. "It's important to have great facilities and all the things you need to tick the boxes and do what you've got to do. "We've always had everything we need and the facilities here [at Bruce] are good, there's nothing wrong with the facilities we've got here. "It's definitely on another level. It ticks a lot of boxes, not just for us as a playing group but as a full club."

Shining a light on the people, places, breakthroughs and traditions of the past 150 years that made Lehigh the institution that it is today—and is poised to become tomorrow.
At an historic 2015 Founder's Day celebration—one that came on the occasion of the Lehigh's Sesquicentennial—John D. Simon was formally installed as Lehigh's 14th president.
Simon told those assembled in Packer Memorial Church that he would lead an ambitious agenda, bolstered by the trustees' commitment to an investment of $250 million in institutional resources in the areas of teaching, learning, research and student life. This investment will support a comprehensive plan that will strengthen Lehigh, allow the university to leverage core strengths and build a university that will serve the needs of students and society of the future.
The following day, Simon and other administrators gathered with local officials for a Community Breakfast. The event, held on a rainy and chilly morning under the cover of the Tamerler Courtyard Outdoor Concert Pavilion—built especially for Lehigh's Sesquicentennial Weekend—offered an opportunity for Lehigh officials celebrate and recognize the accomplishments and significant anniversaries of its community partners, as well as the university's combined efforts to foster a vibrant South Bethlehem.
Celebrations continued on Goodman Campus, where officials gathered to formally dedicated three recently renovated facilities—the expanded Cundey Varsity House, the new home of Lehigh's successful softball program, and the completely rebuild Ulrich Varsity Tennis Courts.
The previous day, Lehigh's Campus Square was officially dedicated as Farrington Square Thursday in honor of former Lehigh president Greg Farrington, who, with his wife, Jean, inspired the center that is considered the gateway to the South Side.
Farrington, Lehigh's 12th president, and Jean were on hand for the late afternoon ceremony, which included the unveiling of a plaque that honors their contribution to a vibrant area that combines student living, the university bookstore, and other shops and restaurants.
The weeklong celebration of 150th events kicked off with a "Diner en Blanc (and Brown)" that was attended by 500 students and held on Goodman Campus. At the conclusion of the dinner, students were transported to the soccer stadium for dessert and music before the entire stadium was plunged into darkness and a 10-minute fireworks display began. The celebration continued throughout the weekend with a series of performances and a block party in the Tamerler Courtyard Outdoor Pavilion outside the Zoellner Arts Center.

Nifra has in a vast couple of years gone from being a local talent in central Europe to one of the most popular figures in the Markus Schulz "Coldharbour" entourage. With releases such as Dark Harbour, Ransvik and more she has taken the throne as the "Queen of Coldharbour".
She kicked of her DJ career back in 2008 and learnt her trade playing alongside and supporting such acts as Armin Van Buuren and Tiesto in her home country of Slovakia which lead to her becoming quickly recognized as a massive potential future talent. We fast forward a few years to the present and now an accomplished producer and world renowned DJ in her own right, Nifra has now played countless shows around the world including Armin Van Buurens massive annual, "A State of Trance" party, Ultra Music Festival in Miami as well as multiple appearances all over Europe, North America and Asia. Her music regularly finds itself in the DJ wallets of the top names of trance such as Armin van Buuren, Markus Schulz, Gareth Emery, Andy Moor and this global support has not only lead to remix and collaboration requests from many of her peers but has also lent a lot of support and extra respect to her own solo productions. She has gradually built up a loyal, hardcore fan base whilst keeping the integrity within the "Coldharbour" sound that she has become know for. Progressive Trance with balls!! Is how she likes to put it. As well as writing and producing music and touring the world Nifra also hosts a very successful monthly radio show. "Be Progressed" airs on the 2nd Thursday of each month on Afterhours.fm, one of the leading online radio stations. The show is fast approaching 80 episodes and has like the artist, amassed a very loyal following who tune in religiously every month.

Workplace hazards are all around us, some are easily seen while others are less obvious. Some employees are highly trained and professionally experienced enough to solely focus their job responsibilities on recognizing potential hazards. Many other positions are not centrally focused on identifying safety concerns. How can you better control the hazard recognition in your workplace? It's all centered on employee involvement.
Imagine yourself in a training classroom speaking to your employees and you ask them, "What does safety truly mean?" Some might say, "Staying safe while working" or maybe "Staying up-to-date with OSHA standards." These answers are correct, but do they truly convey the core meaning of safety to your employees?
To me, safety means getting employees home the same way they arrived. That requires everyone to be thinking safe, and doing safe. It's preventative maintenance, just like everything else. Take for example your vehicle. Oil needs to be changed or the engine will eventually fail. Tires and brakes need to be replaced every so often in order to prevent an accident. Things need to be checked and maintained daily or you run the risk of failure. The same goes with safety in the workplace; it is a daily concern that requires constant attention. Some daily safety concerns might include the required fall protection when working above certain heights or the personal protective equipment that is necessary to protect your eyes, hands and feet. If your safety equipment is not properly maintained, like your car, it will eventually fail and cause an accident.

[Believe Tech or Not] When Bill Gates Promoted Apple!
Yep, it happened
by: Nimish Dubey - Last updated on: October 29th, 2017
Mention Apple and Microsoft and the first images that come to mind are those of fierce, intense competition bordering on near hatred. Both companies have been instrumental in making technology so accessible that it is an almost routine part of our lives.
But ah, they have never been the greatest of friends. At least not in public perception. The Microsoft vs Apple battle is considered by many to be one of the most fierce in tech history. In fact, even the founders of the two companies, Steve Jobs and Bill Gates, were at one time supposed to be close to bitter enemies, although they often (but not always) expressed admiration for each other in public. The battles were many: Mac OS vs Windows, Standard vs Proprietary, PC vs Mac…and they were bitterly divisive. Never was this Apple vs Microsoft war more evident than in the ad campaigns that the two companies came out with, often poking fun at each other, sometimes discreetly and sometimes directly.
And yet it was not always so. Microsoft, in fact, backed the Macintosh. Publicly.
Sounds difficult to believe? Well, let us give you some evidence. A promotional video for the Macintosh in 1984 has Gates praising the machine for about half a minute:
"It is a great machine. It is a step forward in terms of the way it uses graphics and speed…I was enthused. Microsoft does not work with new hardware very often, but we have put a team of people on it from the beginning. We are planning that over half of our retail sales next year will come from Macintosh software…"
You can see the video below.
But you know, we suspect the Apple vs Microsoft rivalry was already brewing at that stage. For, guess who does not feature in the promotional video at all (the link above is to a shortened version of the video but evidently this was the case in the complete video too).
Steve Jobs.

Apple considers 'success factors' in launching stores
When planning an Apple-branded line of retail stores, Apple put together a list of nine "success factors" needed for a retail operation to succeed, Apple CEO Steve Jobs said. The company felt it already had the first six in place. They are:
Concept: "We have a great concept and are selling billions of dollars of product," Jobs said. "That is our concept, and we're extending it to the digital hub we've discussed before."
New product pipeline: "We have over 2,000 folks in our engineering groups who do nothing but work on new and exciting products," Jobs said. "Apple is a pretty good new product company."
Financing: With over $4 billion in the bank, the company has the necessary financing.
Marketing/brand names: Apple spends a "few hundred million a year on advertising" and has one of the most recognizable name brands in the world.
Supply chain management: "Apple is one of the best companies in the world at supply chain management and logistics, and we know how to extend into retail," he said. The retail stores would be viewed as extra warehouses in the current system, so there would be one supply chain group for the whole company.
Information systems: Apple has already built an IS system for its stores on top of its global ISP system.
However, there were three "success factors" at which Apple had no previous experience: real estate, store design, and store operation. Regarding real estate, Apple knew that the old adage of "location, location, location" was on target and the company realized that "destination" locations (such as Best Buy and Office Depot) won't work for the 95 percent of non-Mac computer users.
"We've got to 'ambush' that 95 percent by being where they're already at, by locating in high-traffic gathering places, such as malls, hip streets, and the new lifestyle centers, such as coffee shops," Jobs said. "We're going to put our Apple stores in top tier locations."
Regarding store design, Apple wanted a concept that would fit the needs of its customers and would showcase its products, but which would also be flexible enough for change and growth. To come up with the best concept, Apple actually built a prototype in a warehouse. The result, according to Jobs: a solutions-focused store.
When it comes to store operations, Apple realized it had to deliver a "fantastic experience," the CEO said. That meant the "right stores at the right place with great merchandise, incredible employees, and operational excellence," according to Ron Johnson, Apple's new senior vice president of retailing.
The new retail stores will carry, not surprisingly, Apple's entire product line and the "best" (as determined by Apple) third party products and peripherals. Apple also plans for its stores to have the very newest technology products on the market.
"We want to carry a great selection of third party software to showcase the range of solutions available for the Mac platform," Jobs said. "We've chosen products we think are the right ones to start with. We'll edit and re-edit the selection as new products come out. Obviously, we're putting our judgment on it, but we'll rethink things as time goes by and we see what our customers are buying."
Every Mac in the retail stores will be connected to the Internet, will come fully loaded with software, and will be designed to showcase the platform's integrated solutions. This will "set us apart" from competitors, Jobs said.
The retail stores will handle service for all Mac systems, no matter where you bought them. They'll also take returns on any products bought from Apple (whether at the retail or online stores), but not from other stores.

Rep. Barbara Lee: Bernie Sanders' Message "Resonating," "Galvanizing Progressives"
"And I think by the turnout and by what the response of the people around the country, we see that his message is resonating and so I think it's a good thing that he's out there."
by Andrew Kaczynski
BuzzFeed News Reporter
Posted on July 7, 2015, 10:07 pm
California Rep. Barbara Lee, a key leader of progressive House Democrats, says she believes Bernie Sanders' candidacy is "galvanizing progressives" and the progressive agenda.
"I know Bernie first as a colleague and as a friend. I did serve with him on the then-Banking Committee and we actually came up with, initially, with the National Housing Trust Fund, worked together on that, and so I've worked with him on many, many issues and he's a friend," Lee said on the Jeff Santos Show.
"And I think what he is doing really is galvanizing progressives to really develop a strong progressive agenda that deals with all of the issues, that the majority of Americans want to deal with," she added. "And I think by the turnout and by what the response of the people around the country, we see that his message is resonating and so I think it's a good thing that he's out there," she said.
Last week Sanders supporters filled the 10,000 seat Veterans Memorial Coliseum in Madison, Wisconsin.
"I'm supporting the progressive agenda, Mayor DeBlasio, myself, and probably 8 to 10 members of Congress signed on to a progressive agenda that we are putting forward, that addresses many of the issues that Senator Clinton and Bernie Sanders are raising--excuse me Secretary of State Clinton and Senator Sanders are raising."
"And so income inequality, when you look at a living wage, when you look at climate change, there are many, many issues on that that progressive agenda that both Mrs. Clinton and Senator Bernie are really addressing and I think it's a very exciting time that he is doing this."

Q: Which statistic can be used to measure significant text frequency increase? I am working on text data. I am interested to find out words that have significantly increased in the recent times. For example, the word 'iTunes' might have appeared 30 times in September, 50 times in October and 60 times in November. Similarly, I have the frequencies for multiple words for a period of time. How can I know if the increase is statistically significant? My objective is to highlight the words which have seen a significant increase recently.

A: It is probable that you're working with specific hypotesis, about specific words.
You can test your words of interest, and use some random words (with same length/word class) as controls. For example, if 'helmet' is a word of interest, a control word may be something like 'motorcycle'. Anyway, the word choice strongly depends on what you want to test.
Using those two classes, you can test your hypotesis. For example, you can estimate the frequency increase for all of your words of interest from september to october, and compare those increases with the increase in the random control words frequencies, using a t-test. You can do the same for all of your time intervals. Depending on the amount of time intervals, then, maybe you can consider the implementation of an ANOVA.

Preheating battery in cold weather use.
Discussion in 'Model 3: Battery & Charging' started by evJOULE, May 13, 2018.
Anyone with experience parking their Model 3 outside in cold/snow conditions? Unlike the Model S/X, the Model 3 does not have a dedicated heater for the battery, and I am curious to know how preconditioning/heating the battery in the Model 3 works. I understand that the Model 3 uses software to direct heat from the drive train even when parked to warm the batteries. Having only a one-car garage, we will have to rotate the two 3's between a 220plug in-garage, and a 110plug on the exterior. How will our Model 3's hold up in extreme cold weather conditions?
It takes a long time... I parked my car I. My insulated garage, 32F, outside temp 20F. Took about an hour for all Regen available and loss of efficiency with cabin heater to 320Whr/mi.
Thanks for the reply Shoal007. Sorry, but just to clarify, did you mean your car was parked outside in 20F weather? Obviously the pooled experience regarding the Model 3 performance in cold climates is limited at this point, but it would be nice to see more people share their experience as I think it is an important aspect of owning one. If your car was parked in your garage and it took an hour to precondition for regen, then there are real concerns for anyone that might have to leave the car parked overnight in real cold weather. -25C is not rare for winter weather in Canada.
From this I would surmise that if one has a Model S and a Model 3 and garage space for only one of the two vehicles, that it's better to give the garage to the Model 3 at winter time, agreed?
Thanks for chiming in. I would agree Rockster, but both of our cars are Model 3's, first delivery in June 2018, so it won't make any difference in our case. The best we will be able to do is rotate every second night, every third if we include a possible addition for our daughter. I am just trying to get views from the collective experience here as to what we can expect. This is a major design difference from what we understood regarding the Model S and X design. I have to hope at this point that Tesla took into consideration that the Model 3 will be used in cold climate regions when they redesigned the thermal regulation system of the battery. I am hoping that this means the Model 3 can adequately warm the battery when needed. Canada and large parts of Europe as well as China will have to deal with extreme cold weather for the foreseeable future. The other question this opens for me at least is whether long preconditioning periods (2-4 hours) needed to keep the battery warm during extreme cold weather has any negative impact on the motor in terms of wear-and-tear? I think this is a very relevant topic that this community should actively explore, and I hope others with real world experience see the value in sharing. Obviously we only have the last winter season in the USA to draw from. Cheers.
Reduced charging rate at supercharger.
My experience a cold soaked battery at garage temp of 32. Outdoor temp of 20, it took an hour of freeway driving at 65mph to get to normal temp.

I want to make sure this is clear, because some people have a misunderstanding of this. Some people saw articles on this and think there is no heating for the battery at all. That's not the case. The Model 3 doesn't have a single-use piece of equipment that is a heater only inside the battery pack. It does have a way to actively heat the battery pack. It uses a way of running current through some of the coils in the motor and then sending that heat through the battery pack. So yes, it is a different method of battery heating, and maybe you are asking for experiences with the effectiveness of it.
Thanks Rocky-H, Yeh that is precisely what I was asking about, I would like to get an idea of how well the new method works. i.e. can it warm the battery in -25C weather while plugged into a 240V 40amp plug? I plan on upgrading the exterior plug and purchasing a first GEN UMC in an effort to help with this situation. Thanks for your input.
The Model 3 uses the motor and inverter to heat the battery. They run power through the motor without creating torque so all that energy is turned into heat which then warms up the coolant and the battery. I don't think anyone knows how much heating power it can produce this way. I would assume similar to what the Model S/X does (aprox 6 kW).
The battery in the Model S is heated that way until it reaches aprox 8 or 9 degree Celsius. From there on the heat losses in the drive train continue to warm up the battery. The battery still has some restricted power so regen will be partially limited. It goes away when the battery is aprox 20 Celsius. I assume the Model 3 battery has similar characteristics. Only with access to the CAN bus would it be possible to test this all out.
It is definitely a good idea to keep the car plugged in while it heats the battery. I did a test once measuring the energy consumed for heating the battery from being cold soaked parked outside at -25 Celsius over night. It used aprox 7 kWh. That included cabin heating as well. Again that was with the Model S but since the battery is roughly the same size and weight, the numbers would be similar.
How does one precondition/heat the battery?
Do you just turn on the car heater to max?
Thanks for your input David99 and the much appreciated positive outlook. I especially appreciate your insight into power usage to rewarm in cold temps. It doesn't seem reasonable to me that Tesla, or any other car maker for that matter, would neglect something so obvious as heating, but you can understand my concern living in Canada and finding out that the Model 3 doesn't actually have a dedicated heater for the battery, coupled with individual reports of low thermal regulation performance in moderate temperatures. I am expecting that Tesla could also tweak the system with software if need be. Your post does raise another question for me though. My original reaction to this was to upgrade the exterior plug with a 50amp breaker to be able to use the full 40amp capacity of the original GEN1 UMC. Do you think the slower rate of charge with the 32amp GEN2 UMC would be better for battery life? If I take from the experience that others have posted here, the logic follows that maybe a little slower charge especially when dealing with cold weather issues, would be better for the battery's longevity. Any thoughts?
Not a stupid question at all TesSpartan. It might be better for someone with actual experience to respond, but from what I understand reading from other Model S owners that have posted here is that preconditioning of the battery in cold weather is done from the Tesla app on your phone and is separate form heating the cabin.
The app, though, only has a climate control for the interior. So someone should know by experience if that when you heat the interior, that is what is used to heat/precondition the battery.
Seems that using the Outdoor Car Cover would help to retain heat while plugged in. It has multiple layers and might go far enough down to block a lot of the wind from hitting the bottom of the car.

The question itself is valid about whether slower = better, but you need to remember what numbers context it is in. At Superchargers, they use power levels up to a little over 100kW. Slower than that? Yes, probably better. But this 40A or 32A question you are asking about for home charging is the difference between about 7kW or 9kW. They are both so extremely low power from the battery's perspective that there is no difference.
So someone should know by experience if that when you heat the interior, that is what is used to heat/precondition the battery.
There is an answer to this now. Battery preheating functionality was added about December 2017. Here is a thread about it.
It will only do it if it's about freezing or below. There isn't a separate button for it, but if you turn on the cabin preheating in the app, and you see a little snowflake show up in the picture of the car, that is running the battery preheater as well.

Based on the info I have gathered throughout the years I would say it makes little to no difference for the battery life/health charging to 32 vs 40 Ampere. If I had a Model 3 I would definitely go with the 'old' UMC and charge to 40 AMP. Tesla had it on their website at some point showing how long it takes to charge at different speeds and also how efficient it is. It showed that charging at a lower rate is slightly less efficient. One reason is that during charging the coolant pump and other systems are running using some energy. A longer charge time uses those system longer thus using more energy total. The other reason is that the charger is most efficient near it's rated power. At partial power it's not quite as efficient (that's quite normal for power electronics). So there is some advantage overall to charge at 40 vs 32 Amp.
... from what I understand reading from other Model S owners that have posted here is that preconditioning of the battery in cold weather is done from the Tesla app on your phone and is separate form heating the cabin.
Actually you can't start the battery heating from the app. At least not in the S or X and I assume the 3 is the same here. The car decides when to use the battery heater or not. There is no switch either in the app not in the car to start or stop the battery heater. When you start your cabin heater from the app and the battery (not the ambient temp!) is below 8 or 9 degree Celsius, the battery heater will also start. If you get in the car and start driving and the battery is below 8 C, the battery heater will start. Recently Tesla updated the app to show the activity of the battery heater in the app, but not a way to switch it.
Two exceptions: The performance cars have a setting called 'max battery power'. When turned on, the battery heater will start and bring up the battery to 40 C. At that temperature the battery has the best power output and is most efficient. The other exception is the 'Range Mode' option. When turned on, the car will not use the battery heater.
Last but not least, the car will always use the battery heater if you are trying to charge it and the battery is below 0 C. A lthium battery can't be charged when below freezing. It would be damaged.
If the car is parked it will never turn on the battery heater, no matter how cold it gets.
So in effect, It is imperative to keep the car plugged in during cold months? What if car is at airport in winter in Canada for one week, unplugged (no plug in was available). What should I expect to have to do when I get in the ice cold car upon return?
The car will heat the battery to prevent it from getting so cold that it is damaged. The exact level depends on if range mode is on or not and the State of charge of the battery.
@jaguar36 Can you direct me to a post or article that describes this behavior in the Model 3?
Not sure this is relevant but yesterday mornin the outside temp was 59 degrees and had been about 50 overnight. In the morning we drove about a mile to the supercharger. At 52% charge level we started to charge at 32 kW and very quickly dropped to 28 kW. Long story about moving to different stalls, rebooting, calling Tesla, etc but the charge level did not change until about 80% level. Then the charge level dropped to 26 kW.
Later that same day, after driving about 150 miles and charging at a destination charger we returned to the same supercharger. The charge level was normal at about 100 kW.
We had charged normally at this same supercharger two days earlier.
Battery temperature had most likely nothing to do with it. Worst case the battery would have been 50 degrees. That doesn't cause a Supercharger to slow down to less than 30 kW.
I have Supercharged about 900 times with my car at over 100 stations. I also have a tool to monitor my actual battery temperature and other data from the car. My experience with Superchargers not delivering full power is pretty random. Calling Tesla has never ever helped. The people that take the calls have no special knowledge. They were never able to tell me why or what is going on. In 90% of the cases, their standard answer is there are variations and that's what it is. They are trained to go through standard situations but their knowledge ends after telling you about stall pairing or a 'busy station' or cold or hot temperatures. Here and there they confirm the station is known to have issues, but that's it.

November | 2016 | Broomsticked The Life and Times of a Real Witch.
I've noticed as this moon has drawn closer and closer some little things I've been in denial about or just not wanting to face or deal with are really being made ridiculously clear today. Alot of boundaries and things relationship wise, both family and romance.
I'm grounding out from my own issues and meditating before starting anyone's work but this is a powerful moon, it's strong light for sure showing clarity even when it's not what you wanted to see.
No matter what your working to manifest tonight, may it's force be with you!
I'm a huge Cubs fan, yes even in bad years. I'm from Illinios and also a Bears and Bulls fan. But as my excitement for tonight's game has grown, I decided to do something fun and crazy, that hopefully will help promote me but not turn into thousands of people seeing it !
If the Cubs win the World Series tonight, I will perform one free luck spell for anyone who contacts me at my ArtFire shop within a week from today, Wednesday November 2 2016.


Breakfast is the first meal of a day, some say the most important. The word in English refers to breaking the fasting period of the prior night. I don't know about that, but sometimes I think there should be a middle of the night meal. I love breakfast and in Memphis we have all kinds. Here are five choices to start your day off on the right foot.
The line starts at 5:00 a.m. at Bryant's Breakfast for those who wake up extra early. Bryant's has been around and making addictive biscuits since 1968. A cup of coffee and a country ham biscuit or their banana-strawberry pancakes would be a great start here.
If you are closer to downtown around 6:oo a.m. Then Sunrise Memphis would be an excellent choice. This colorful oasis of breakfast offers an eclectic southern breakfast. Try a Chef's Breakfast bowl ($8), that has fried eggs, sausage, and cinnamon toast chicharrones on a bed of cheddar grits, or perhaps P Love's biscuit sammie ($5.50) with smoked bologna, american cheese, fried egg. They also make a mean Bloody Mary.
RELATED CONTENT – A Bloody Mary with bacon and beef jerky? Yes, please!
Brother Juniper's — 3519 Walker Ave.
Opening at 6:30 a.m. near the University of Memphis is Brother Juniper's. Serving up hearty dishes like their Spanakopita Omelet ($9.95) with fresh spinach, feta, mozzarella cheese & green onions. You should also try the cinnamon roll pancakes ($8.95) swirled with cinnamon sugar and cream cheese icing might put you in a coma, so we suggest pairing this with a hot cup of coffee.
Elwood's Shack — 4523 Summer Ave.
Now if you are near Summer Avenue around 7 a.m. then Elwood's Shack would be the place to be. Try Eggs Over MyHammy($10), a breakfast pizza with eggs over easy, ham, bacon & tomato or the Pimento Cheese Biscuit ($7), a fluffy sandwich with applewood bacon paired with vine ripened tomato and Elwood's homemade pimento cheese.
Now if you just can't wait for morning to come, head to Gibson's donuts. The almost 50 year old institution of glazed perfection is open 24 hours a day. The variety of mouthwatering, tummy loving fresh donuts is enough to make you feel like you've gone to donut heaven. Our personal fave is maple bacon.
