Phase Concentration Determination of Fe16N2 Using State of the Art Neutron Scattering Techniques
S. P. Bennett, M. Feygenson, Y. Jiang, B. J. Zande, X. Zhang, S. G. Sankar, J. P. Wang, V. Lauter
Due to limitations on the availability of rare earth elements it is imperative that new high energy product rare earth free permanent magnet materials are developed for the next generation of energy systems. One promising low cost permanent magnet candidate for a high energy magnet is α″-Fe16N2, whose giant magnetic moment has been predicted to be well above any other from conventional first principles calculations. Despite its great promise, the α″ phase is metastable; making synthesis of the pure phase difficult, resulting in less than ideal magnetic characteristics. This instability gives way to a slew of possible secondary phases (i.e. α-Fe, Fe2O3, Fe8N, Fe4N, etc.) whose concentrations are difficult to detect by conventional x-ray diffraction. Here we show how high resolution neutron diffraction and polarized neutron reflectometry can be used to extract the phase concentration ratio of the giant magnetic phase from ultra-small powder sample sizes (~0.1 g) and thin films. These studies have led to the discovery of promising fabrication methods for both homogeneous thin films, and nanopowders containing the highest reported to date (>95%) phase concentrations of room temperature stable α″-Fe16N2.

Cure for HIV/AIDS: New Strawberry Flavored anti-HIV Medicines to Stop AIDS in Children
By Taylor Johnson December 5, 2019
Cure for HIV/AIDS has not to be found out only for adults but the kids born as HIV positive are also a major part of the epidemic. There has to be a solution to cure the little children having HIV and AIDS so that the disease can be ended at the end level. There are roughly 80,000 babies and toddlers dying of AIDS every year and the primary reason is the unavailability of proper medicines.
Today we stand with everyone living with HIV & AIDS, and honor those we have lost. #WorldAIDSDay @WhiteHouse pic.twitter.com/Mz8CuROkhT
— Melania Trump (@FLOTUS) December 1, 2019
The bitter taste of the medicines treating HIV is something which the kids don't like and hence they don't swallow them. One of the biggest pharmaceutical company Cipla has invented a Strawberry flavored anti-HIV medicine, especially for children. With proper reach and distribution, the new meds can help to stop HIV/AIDS in children at a worldwide level.
Strawberry Flavored anti-HIV Medicine for Children
It is why Cipla has come up with an innovative solution, introducing an anti-HIV drug named Quadrimune, which is strawberry-flavored and tastes much better. It comes in capsules and can be sprinkled into other foods and drinks, making it easier to swallow and ingest by kids who are very little in age.
The new medicine will have four recommended antiretroviral drugs and won't require refrigeration which is a big issue in Africa due to high temperatures, lack of resources and frequent electricity issues. Quadrimune is also very inexpensive as it would just cost $1 per day for an average child of 25 pounds and it could save a lot of little lives.
Effective Way of Stopping HIV/AIDS
As of right now, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is reviewing Quadrimune and it would most likely be approved by early 2020. There will be still many years before an effective cure for HIV and AIDS is out and it is better to stop the spreading of the virus in the meantime. The plan is to widely distribute the Strawberry flavored HIV medicines and try to control the epidemic in children and end it in adults too by U=U means.

Intro German politician
A.K.A. Josef Antonius Heinrich Terboven
Was Politician
Field Politics
Birth 23 May 1898, Essen, Germany
Death 8 May 1945, Asker, Norway (aged 46 years)
Star sign Gemini
Politics Nazi Party
Josef Antonius Heinrich Terboven (23 May 1898 – 8 May 1945) was a Nazi leader, best known as the Reichskommissar for Norway during the German occupation of Norway and the Quisling regime.
Terboven (from the Dutch ter Boven) was born in Essen, Germany, as the son of minor landed gentry of Dutch descent. He served in the German field artillery and nascent air force in World War I and was awarded the Iron Cross, rising to the rank of lieutenant. He studied law and political science at the universities of Munich and Freiburg, where he first got involved in politics.
Nazi Party career
Dropping out of the university in 1923, Terboven joined the NSDAP with member number 25247 and participated in the abortive Beer Hall Putsch in Munich. When the NSDAP was subsequently outlawed, he found work at a bank for a few years before he was laid off in 1925.
He then went to work full-time for the Nazi party. Terboven helped establish the party in Essen and became Gauleiter there in 1928. From 1925 on he was part of the Sturmabteilung, in which he reached the rank of Obergruppenführer by 1936. On 29 June 1934, Terboven married Ilse Stahl, Joseph Goebbels' former secretary and mistress. Adolf Hitler was the guest of honour at the wedding. Terboven was made Oberpräsident der Rheinprovinz in 1935 and developed a reputation as a petty and ruthless tyrant.
Rule of Norway
Terboven (seated 2nd from right) with Quisling, Himmler and von Falkenhorst.
Terboven was made Reichskommissar for Norway on 24 April 1940, even before the military invasion was completed on 7 June 1940. He moved into the Norwegian crown prince's residence at Skaugum in September 1940 and made his headquarters in Stortinget (the Norwegian parliament buildings). Ilse and their daughter Inge did not accompany him to Norway, remaining in Germany.
Terboven only had supervisory authority over the civilian administration in Norway. The German civilian administration did not rule Norway directly, however, and remained relatively small. Daily affairs were managed by the existing Norwegian state administration, headed by an acting cabinet and then by the Quisling cabinet. Terboven did not have authority over the 400,000 regular German Army forces stationed in Norway which were under the command of General Nikolaus von Falkenhorst, but he did command a personal force of around 6,000 men, of whom 800 were part of the secret police.
In contrast to the military forces commanded by Falkenhorst, which aimed to reach an understanding with the Norwegian people and were under orders by Falkenhorst to treat Norwegians with courtesy, Terboven behaved in the same petty and ruthless way he did as governor of the Rheinprovinz, and was widely disliked, not only by the Norwegians, but also by many Germans. From 1941, he increasingly focused on crushing the irregular military resistance against the Germans, declaring martial law in Trondheim in 1942, and ordering the destruction of Telavåg. Goebbels expressed annoyance in his diary about what he called Terboven's "bullying tactics" against the Norwegians, as they alienated the population against the Germans. Terboven nevertheless remained in ultimate charge of Norway until the end of the war in 1945, even after the proclamation of a Norwegian puppet regime under Vidkun Quisling, the Quisling government. On 18 December 1944, Falkenhorst was dismissed from his command for opposing certain radical policies of Terboven.
As the tide of the war turned against Germany, Terboven's personal aspiration was to organise a "Fortress Norway" (Festung Norwegen) for the Nazi regime's last stand. Hitler's successor, Admiral Dönitz, dismissed Terboven from his post as Reichskommissar on 7 May, transferring his powers to General Böhme.
Impact of his rule on prison camps
Terboven also planned concentration camps in Norway, establishing Falstad concentration camp near Levanger and Bredtvet concentration camp in Oslo in late 1941.
On 18 July 1942 the Beisfjord massacre occurred. Terboven ordered the massacre a few days earlier.
In July 1942 at least one German guard employed by the Korgen prison camp was killed. The commandant ordered retribution: execution by gunfire for "39 prisoners at Korgen and 20 at Osen"; in the days that followed, Terboven also ordered retribution: around 400 prisoners shot and killed in various camps.
With the announcement of Germany's surrender, Terboven committed suicide on 8 May 1945 by detonating 50 kg of dynamite in a bunker on the Skaugum compound. He died alongside the body of Obergruppenführer Wilhelm Rediess, SS and Police Leader and commander of all SS troops in Norway, who had shot himself earlier. His family survived him in West Germany, and Ilse died in 1972.
Portrayal in popular culture
In the 1965 film The Heroes of Telemark, Josef Terboven was played by English actor Eric Porter.
He is portrayed in the 1996 film Hamsun by Edgar Selge.
A character resembling him appears in the single player campaign of Battlefield V and interrogates the player during a scene.

Q: Windows 10 TP UEFI requirements? Some documentation indicates that Windows 7 can be "upgraded to" (replaced by) Win 10TP. Other documentation says the hardware requirements for Win 10TP are the same as for Win 8. My understanding is that Win 8 uses UEFI while Win 7 (my computer), does not. Can Win 10TP be installed on a non-UEFI system (and will it handle that automatically)?
Will the Win 10TP installation automatically handle creating a MBR and other boot prep when installing on an empty external hard drive on a non-UEFI system, or is there any special partitioning or other preparation I need to do manually first?

A: Windows 10 still supports old legacy BIOS. UEFI is not required.
If you have GRUB running, the boot installation may override GRUB. In this case, install a Virtual Machine under Linux.

A: Windows install is pretty much "fool" proof. This does not mean it will always work just that most can do it without any issues. If you are planning to "duel boot" Linux and Windows on the same machines there are several issues that need to be handled. First if you want to continue to use your Linux install DO NOT allow the windows install to format the disk or write an MBR  to the disk. You will loose your Linux boot loader.
Best to either put windows on a separate partition and add it to your Linux boot menu or to put it on a totally separate drive and switch back and forth through BIOS boot order.
Windows does not like to play nice with Linux. If it can it will delete the Linux boot loader or as least corrupt it and make you have to work at getting back into Linux.

Where are the holes for the CHT probe on a 1962 C172?
There are none. Use sparkplug gasket probes.
How to install CHT probes with Tanis heaters?
No hole for CHT probes.
O-200 and O-300 engines do not have holes for CHT probes. Use M-113 gasket probes.
Can a bayonet adapter be substituted for a gasket ?
Yes. For the factory cylinder you will need our CHT adapter, p/n M113-3/8. – if factory probe is a 1/4-turn bayonet, or screw-on type. Cost is $50 more.
Missing one CHT bayonet probe.
For six(6) cylinder aircraft we usually send one fewer bayonet probe than cylinders, plus one adapter CHT probe. (p/n M113-3/8) This adapter probe is to be used with the factory CHT probe. The factory probe will ride piggy back on the M113-3/8.
Can I use the the EGT/CHT probes from the KS Avionics Hexad with your EDM?
NO. Even though the EGT/CHT probes are K type (red and yellow wire) their probes are ungrounded, our JPI probes are grounded. If you used their ungrounded probes, it would give you erroneous readings on the EDM.
Why does the EDM set its default CHT to 450?
Continental has their CHT normally set at 460 and Lycoming has their CHT normally set at 475 so we chose the conservative 450 degree setting.
CHT/EGT's are reading about half of what they should be.
Go to set alarm limits (Both buttons… END Y… both buttons).
Tap STEP until you see EGT-CHT followed by ENG F or ENG C.
Tap or hold LF to switch between ENG C and ENG F.
Tap STEP repeatedly to END Y.
The EDM wires for probes are probably reversed – make sure the CHT wires are not on the EGT probe.
CHT/EGT's reading half of what they should be.
EDM is probably are set to Celsius. Reprogram to Fahrenheit. See Pilot's Guide for programming information.
All CHT/EGT readings 'jumping' around in all modes.
Check instrument ground, must be grounded at engine. Also check adapter CHT probe not making proper ground make sure it is screwed in tight. Remove factory probe and see if jumping stops.
No 'holes' for CHT probes.
O-200 and O-300 do not have holes. Use M-113 gasket probes.
CHT readings disappear with spark-plug gasket probes.
Tanis TAS2144-K; Readings are normally a few degrees low.
Both CHT and EGT read 300 degrees F too high.
Check ground leads. Error can be caused by common mode voltage between electronics and ground. Instrument must be grounded at engine.
If a bayonet or threaded adapter probe is installed, check that it is screwed in tightly and the threads are clean in order to ground the factory probe. If the adapter is not grounded well to engine, voltage will be applied to the adapter thermocouple junction and disrupt the EDM instrument.
All CHT's reading 100 F too high.
If this is this a GEM conversion, the EDM-700 may not be calibrated for GEM J-type probes. Set CHT to J type see Pilot's Guide for programming instructions or call JPI.
CHT reads high and EGT reads low.
Check to see if the EGT and CHT probe leads are reversed.
Loose connections at the eye terminal – tighten or replace terminals.
Gasket probe reads higher than other CHT probes.
Place gasket on the top spark plug. On a Continental it will read 10 to 15 degrees too cold on the top and 10 to 15 degrees too hot on the bottom. Around 15 degrees difference between top and bottom plug location. Lycoming could read 50 to 60 degrees higher.
Plug removal most likely damaged the probe. Examine the probe for changes. If junction is separated from the copper ring, repair may still be possible. Try heating to about 1100 degrees F. and checking output temp at probe. If temperature is still incorrect, replace probe.
Swap the 'faulty' EGT probes wire to the next cylinders 'good' probe. Now since that 'good' probes wire is now off, fasten it to the 'faulty' probe. You just swap the wire, not the probes. Now turn on the EDM. Does the other 'good' EDM cylinder channel now behave in the same way – jumps up and down..? Then it's the probe. If not and the original 'faulty' cylinder is still behaving in the same way, (no change)- then it could be a bad crimp or connection or instrument is bad.
• Check crimps between probe and harness.
• Check that the EDM is grounded at the engine case(not in the instrument panel). Do not use panel ground, battery ground, or airframe ground. Airframe ground can vary from engine ground by 1/4v. This could cause the EDM to show too 'High' or 'Low', EGT, CHT temps. Or show 'Unsteady' readings. If grounded to the panel, to check if this ground is OK, use a digital voltmeter to measure the difference between the EDM ground and the engine block ground. If the difference is greater than 0.5 volts with the alternator charging, then remove the EDM ground (black wire) from instrument panel and connect it directly to the engine block ground.
• Check that leads are not shorted together on the harness or where the probes connect to the harness.
• Make sure probe wires are not routed with ignition, alternator, or twin engine cabin heater ignition wires because of potential interference with temperature readings.
CHT – no reading. Low EGT & high EGT diff.
EGT & CHT probe leads probably swapped. CHT too high to register.
Adapter probe not grounded or probe leads reversed. It is possible that the probe is defective.
Only one missing segment for CHT.
Probe(s) do not work on one engine on EDM-760?
At the instrument, swap two engine connectors.
If problem switches to other engine readings. If so, this is a wire or probe problem.
If problem stays at the same engine readings, this is an instrument problem. Contact JPI Tech Support.
Might be in the Normalize view. Switch to Percentage view: hold LF button for three seconds.
Could be in Celsius but the alarm limits are still set for Fahrenheit.
If a bayonet or threaded adapter probe is installed, check that it is screwed in tightly and the threads are clean in order to ground the factory probe. If adapter is not grounded well to engine, voltage will be applied to the adapter thermocouple junction and disrupt the EDM instrument.
Most likely a gasket probe. Place it on the top spark plug. Lycoming could read up to 50 degrees higher, Continental 20 degrees.
Replace gasket probe with adapter probe at additional cost.
Check instrument ground. Engine ground only – the same ground that the EGT probes are using – which is engine ground. Have them attach the 'black' ground wire directly to the engine case- NOT panel ground, battery ground or airframe ground. These can vary from engine ground by 1/4v. This small voltage is can cause issues such as all EGT or CHT readings seem High or Low, or Unsteady.
Could also be the CHT Adapter probe (p/n M113-3/8) not making proper ground. Make sure it is screwed in tight and its 'white' ground wire it attached to the engine case. Remove factory probe and see if 'jumping' stops. Also check inside the M113-3/8 for stripped wire. You will see inside a channel a 'red' and 'yellow' wire. Has the insulation been stripped away? if so, this will cause issues.

The capacity of high-technology joint venture of GC "Titan" SIBUR and "Gazprom-Neft" reached 25,7 tons of polypropylene in hour that will allow the plant to produce more than 210kt of product per year.
Omsk polypropylene plant received the report and expert report on industrial safety under the project of technical re-equipment of the polypropylene production workshop with assessment of the existing equipment and development of technical solutions to increase the hourly capacity to 25.7 tons. The expert report is registered by the Siberian administration of Federal Service for Environmental, Technological and Nuclear Supervision of Russia. The specialists of "Poliom" confirmed the capacity increase during the test run, which lasted 9 days.
This result has become possible through the implementation of a set of measures aimed at increasing the efficiency of polymerization unit. The project was implemented with the participation of the licensing company Lyondell Basell. Let us recall that "Poliom" reached the capacity of 22.5 tons of product per hour, which corresponds to 180kt per year, in May 2013. By 2017 the enterprise productive capacity was increased to 25 tons per hour. This became possible due to the technical re-equipment, the project of which also passed the expert review according to the established order.
Omsk polypropylene plant enters the list of participants of Petrochemical Industrial Cluster of Omsk region. The enterprise is equipped with the advanced equipment which providessafe and environmentally compliant operation.

HMS Indomitable
Messages 50 to 74
My Dad served on Indomitable 1945 Okinawa battle he was in Sydney in February prior to the battle where he met Mum his name was Stanley Lawrence Gordon Ellis Chief Petty Officer is there a list of the crew Dad passed away 10/01/1984.
Stan Ellis, Jr.
My father in law recently passed and he was on the HMS Indomitable in the second world war and often told us if his stories on board ship. One particular story was when they crossed the equator and fried eggs on shovels with no heat, that's how hit it was. We are putting a little album together with some of his pictures from that time on board ship. Is there any chance I could get a crew list with his name on? I would be most grateful if you could help.
Mrs. Marcia Brace
My father, John Tippett RN, served on the Indomitable from 1943(?) to 1945. He wasn't very forthcoming about his experiences during the war, but I do know he came to Australia after his time in Hong Kong on R&R on HMS Golden Hind, as per immigration papers, and ended up settling here in 1945. I have been unable to find any other records. It's as if he never existed prior to 1945. If anyone knows anything about him could they please let me know?

My late uncle, Francis Squires, was killed aboard Indomitable when she was bombed on the Malta convoy. I would very much like further details of this as my grandparents were told very little at the time, other than that he and others were buried at sea off the battleship Rodney.
Gratefully yours,
Andrew M. Lever
My grandad ARTHUR PHIPPS served on the Indomitable. Not sure when or where but was looking around to see if I could find anything on when and where he served.

My Father-in-Law, Jeffrey O'Neill, (dob: 4/10/24) sadly passed away on the 9/7/19 at the age of 94. He told us that he served on HMS Indomitable during World War ll. Unfortunately, we are unable to locate his service papers and we would be very grateful if you could please advise us where we could look for information relating to his time in the Fleet Air Arm.
Mr. Mark O'Neill &
Mrs. Larraine O'Neill
My Father in law, William Stanley Harwood, "Bill", served from I think late 42 until the cessation of WW2, I think he was a gunner but has never said too much about his experiences other than where they were deployed, I know he was off Taranto when torpedoed, then to USA and the far east, and the Malta convoys at some time. I believe he joined the ship at Liverpool in late 42. He is 93 next week, still with his wits about him, I doubt there are many left around from this era, but if anyone does have a faint memory it would be nice to hear from them.
Mike Youell
Sadly my father-in-law, William Stanley Harwood, passed away last week, there has been mention that he was probably one of, if not the last crewmember to die from this era, as the website is rather short of contributions, it would suggest there is not a lot of interest. Are you aware of any other sites where we could glean more information.
My father-in-law, David Samuel Peck, served on the HMS Indomitable during WWII while a member of the Fleet Air Arm. I think he was on the ship during visits to USA (for refit?) and throughout the Pacific war. He is a spritely 94 and enjoying retirement close to family on the north coast of New South Wales Australia. I know he would welcome any news or photos about the Indomitable during WWII. He met and married his wife Marjorie within a short month or so while on shore leave in Sydney. This loving marriage lasted until her passing in 2004. His time on the "Indom" is highly valued and remembered. Just a note to let people know that David is alive and well and interested to hear from any fellow crewmen who may share his longevity.

I am trying to find some information on my father Alan Gibling who, I believe, served on the Indomitable around 1953. I can remember Dad talking about the explosion and wondered if anyone remembers him. I am lucky enough to have letters covering three years between my parents in the early part of their marriage, but not for this period and would like to fill some gaps.
Susan Hare-Winton
I am trying to find our some more information on my Grandfather, Ernest Gordon Robson, born in Newcastle in 1911 and served aboard HMS Indomitable as a sickbay medical attendant. It is rumoured that he may well have deserted the ship at some stage during the Second World War, but I have not been able to verify this. Would be very interested to hear from anyone that may remember him form this time or anyone that can shed light on the desertion rumour.
Trevor Ellis
My father served aboard HMS Indomitable in WWII, his name was William Thomas Parker. One of his duties was helping men with recreation and so he was given a small boat and went from one ship to another showing film shows. Sadly he passed away 2009.
Janet Sloan
It is with great sadness that I have to inform you of the passing of Stanley Elmes on 23/6/2016 aged 95. Able Seaman HMS Indomitable 1941-46. As far as I know he worked on radio comms.
If anybody knew of him or has any information I could use to compile a memory book I would be very grateful.
Allanna Devine
I just found your website, very interesting. I have my great uncle's pocket watch. It has a handwritten inscription inside which says:
Carl Miller AB
Mess 26
May 26th 08
I know almost nothing more about him, he survived the war and emigrated to South Africa in the early 1950's.
Maybe someone among your correspondents might have some information?
I am enquiring on behalf 0f my partner about his half brother Kenneth Stephen Humphries boy sailor age 17 who died of his burns following an explosion on board ship in 1953 with several others the reason for enquiring is he has no photograph of Kenneth having just discovered his half brother We have been to visit his grave in Malta We would appreciate any information or photographs of Kenneth and the explosion from his former shipmates.
Rosemary Freeman
I don't have a photo of him and don't know where you could get one. I have some very limited info on him. The explosion on HMS Indomitable was caused by a cigarette which ignited petrol fumes on Feb. 3, 1953. Kenneth S. Humphries, Boy (JX899584) was injured and died of his wounds Feb. 7, 1953. Sadly that is all I know.

During the first eighteen days, your health will not support you. Your productivity may reduce, and you will not be able to enjoy your work. However, the rest of the days will be positive for your health; your willpower and self-esteem will also get a boost. You may take part in some physical competition and even win. The second and the fourth weeks may prove great for employees and people in the business. Employees may progress during this period, but, during the third and the fifth weeks they may get reprimanded from their boss. You may be disgraced even after working hard. During the first nine days of this month, your income will increase. From the 10th to 23rd of February, you may feel anxious and frustrated with regards to your family issues. The last week, however, will prove great for you. For your children's health and education, the beginning of the month will be great but the second half may not be positive. For your property related matters, 17th to the 28th of this month will be beneficial. Students will be able to get great results during the first nine days of this month, but after that, they will focus less on their study.

Michigan Restaurant Association Sues State Health Director Over Indoor Dining Closures
The lawsuit argues that the epidemic order issued on November 15 violates the constitutional rights of business owners and unfairly targets restaurants

Share All sharing options for: Michigan Restaurant Association Sues State Health Director Over Indoor Dining Closures
The owner of Townhouse Detroit is among several operators joining the MRLA in suing Michigan's Health and Human Services director over a November 15 epidemic order closing down indoor dining for three weeks.
Michelle and Chris Gerard
The Michigan Restaurant and Lodging Association (MRLA) has filed a lawsuit on behalf of several hospitality groups against Michigan Department of Health and Human Services (MDHHS) director Robert Gordon.
The lawsuit argues that the MDHHS epidemic order issued on Sunday, November 15, which closes food and beverage establishments for indoor service for three weeks, violates the constitutional rights of business owners and unfairly targets restaurants. The plaintiffs, which include Detroit's Heirloom Hospitality Group, are seeking a temporary injunction to the new epidemic order to avoid "catastrophic economic fallout."
Reached by Eater on Tuesday, attorney general Dana Nessel's office declined to speak directly on the lawsuit, stating in an email, "We are reviewing it with our clients and will respond in court."
Robert Gordon, the subject of the claim, offered a statement in an email to Eater on Tuesday evening defending MDHHS's epidemic order and reiterating that the decision fell within powers given to the director of the department. "Targeted and temporary closures that include restaurants have been part of successful strategies for containing COVID surges in Western Europe," Gordon says in a statement. "Other states are now following this approach, and it is supported by leading public health experts nationwide." While Gordon did express sympathy for individuals in the food and beverage industry who are being impacted by a lack of federal financial relief, he notes that COVID-19 spreads indoor settings like restaurants where individuals socialize without masks.
"The sooner Michiganders put a pause on indoor social gatherings, the more lives we will save, and the sooner we will be able to resume our normal social lives, including eating out, without fear. In the meantime, I encourage everyone to support their favorite restaurants by ordering takeout or delivery," Gordon says.
According to the filing, the MRLA argues that the most recent epidemic orders "impermissibly infringe" on the rights of restaurant owners as they were used to circumvent a Michigan Supreme Court decision striking down Gov. Gretchen Whitmer's COVID-19 response executive orders in October.
The plaintiffs claim that food and beverage establishments should fall under the same requirements as other services like hair salons and tattoo parlors that are not impacted by the November 15 order. Those types of services are permitted to operate following CDC and MDHHS rules indoors. "Inexplicably, restaurants and bars are not given that option under the November 15 Order, even though they have continuously and unequivocally demonstrated for several months of operation during the pandemic that they can do so safely," attorneys for the MRLA write in the complaint. They also argue that restaurant settings are "indisputably less likely to spread COVID-19 than the innumerable residential holiday social gatherings that will now occur in totally unregulated residential environments," because restaurants follow strict health and safety protocols.
The lawsuit also points to the cold weather this fall and a lack of government social safety nets, such as business grants and unemployment insurance, as factors that could further damage the restaurant industry:
While restaurants could rely on federal dollars and utilize outdoor seating during the comparatively mild weather of the first shutdown, those federal dollars are gone and the weather in Michigan in November and December will make offering outdoor seating options physically and economically impossible.
The MRLA cites its own surveys to claim that "more than 40 percent" of restaurants are likely to close temporarily due to the November 15 epidemic order and approximately 250,000 employees could be laid off as a result. The MRLA also estimates that 6,000 food and beverage establishments could close by spring 2021 if the indoor dining closure becomes "prolonged."
Heirloom Hospitality, whose owner Jeremy Sasson operates Prime and Proper and Townhouse, states in the restaurant group has laid off all but its "most senior team members" as a result of the pandemic. "While Heirloom survived the first shutdown... it will be economically gutted and may not survive a second shutdown," the complaint states. Heirloom is also joined in the lawsuit by Suburban Inns, a corporation located in Hudsonville, Michigan, which operates multiple hotels as well as restaurants including Sharkee's Bar & Grill in Holland and Big E's Sports Grill.
In a statement released to Eater and other outlets on Tuesday, November 17, MRLA president Justin Winslow says that the lawsuit was filed "after careful deliberation and as the last available option to prevent the outright devastation of restaurant operators and their hundreds of thousands of employees across the state." The trade group claims that it made "several good faith efforts in advance of the public release of the Order issued November 15 to reach a compromise with the MDHHS," including reducing capacity to 25 percent of normal occupancy and implementing a 10 p.m. curfew.
Many restaurants were taken by surprise as the MDHHS announced its new epidemic order on Sunday. The rules are set to go into effect at 12:01 a.m. on Wednesday, November 18. Some establishments, including Oak and Reel in Milwaukee Junction, have already laid off their staffs as a result of the order, which is particularly limiting to business that do not have an outdoor dining option or menus that easily conform to carryout and delivery services.
As outbreaks have spiked across the state, largely driven by social gatherings, cases associated with restaurants and bars have also climbed. While proportionally restaurants and bars account for only 5.5 percent of all reported outbreaks in the state during the week of November 12, the data doesn't speak to the magnitude of those outbreaks or how many people were infected. Experts also believe these outbreak numbers are underreporting the reality of the pandemic. During the week of November 12, there were 54 reported outbreaks involving bars and restaurants — double the number reported two weeks prior. Many of those reported outbreaks involved employees only. Approximately 15 of those outbreaks involved spread between employees and patrons.
In a statement to Eater, Gordon writes that "because about 50 to 60 percent of all COVID-19 cases cannot be tied to a known source of infection, and because tying cases to places where individuals may spend only an hour is difficult, there is an unknown number of further outbreaks not counted [in the weekly data]."
This appears to be the first time a state restaurant trade group has filed a lawsuit to fight COVID-19 mitigation orders. However, some restaurants in Dallas, Texas, and North Carolina have independently sued over forced closures.

Flight Review: Hong Kong Airlines short-haul HX284 & HX285

We booked a killer deal to Hong Kong, but decided to take a quick trip to Taipei. After weighing all the costs (and being gluttons for punishment) we decided to visit Taipei first, which meant tacking on a two-hour flight after more than 15 hours in the air.
Making the booking
We weighed several options. Frankly, I would have preferred a more conveniently-timed EVA Air flight, but we didn't want to risk our inbound flight being delayed and having problems changing carriers. It also would have required us to clear immigration in Hong Kong and for us to get our bags then transfer them to EVA.
Instead, we stuck with Hong Kong Airlines, which allows you to merge separate reservations together so your bags are automatically transferred.
We started the search on Google Flights and found a $170 round-trip ticket (we found round-trips cheaper than separate one-ways). For some reason after selecting dates, HKA would then show up with a price of $155. I took the data to Kayak and Momondo, which led me to now-defunct Zuji. It had the tickets for $70 each way...a savings of about $15 per person.
HX284 HKG-TPE
The computers in LAX wouldn't allow agents to print connecting tickets, so we had to stop by the transit desk in Hong Kong to get our boarding passes.
The security line was light and we had plenty of time to visit the Plaza Premium Lounge before our flight. It's in a different part of the airport, but is quickly accessed by a people mover.
From there, it was time to board. The A330 was about 30% full so boarding was quick and we pushed back early. The flight felt completely empty because everyone was so spread out.
The crew were cheerful despite the late hour. I was impressed they offered a complimentary meal service on such a short flight. There was only one option of a small, hot sandwich and it hit the spot.
Since it was a short flight, I didn't spend too much time with the Inflight Entertainment system, but I noticed there wasn't as much content as the long-haul A350. The remote felt strange to use after becoming accustomed to the touchscreens. Still, Cantonese captions and all, it served its purpose of putting me to sleep and we arrived in Taipei almost a half-hour early.
HX285 TPE-HKG
We made our way back to the airport early using the 1819 bus. It dropped us off well before the HKA ticket counter opened. Finally, a little after 5am, workers arrived and quickly took our luggage and printed boarding passes for our flight.
Security and passport control lines were long, but moved quickly. We still had plenty of time to visit the only 24-hour Plaza Premium Lounge in Terminal 2.
It was busy, given the early hour, but we snagged seats outside near the replica of Taipei 101.
About an hour later, the crowd thinned considerably so we went to the made-to-order breakfast area.
I had the beef noodle soup, which was a let down compared to the delicious soups we enjoyed in Taipei. I'd recommend sticking to the well-stocked buffet.
Soon it was time to board, and we made our way to the gate. It was harder than anticipated to find because of a lack of signage directing us toward the right area. Once we figured it out, we got there just as boarding was beginning.
Again, we were on a former Singapore Airlines A330. The larger, double-aisle aircraft is a change to the 737s or A320s we're accustomed to seeing on short-haul routes in the United States. The cabin seemed older than it was, but I suppose that might happen doing more frequent flights.
The service was great on this flight. The cabin crew was attentive and made quick work of the mostly full flight. I was again impressed they served a meal for the short flight.
This time, it was a generous portion of noodles, that I think was Zhajiangmian. I also appreciated the Taipei touch of a pineapple cake. I then sat back and enjoyed a movie. Before long, we were landing in Hong Kong.


Intel has announced their official launch event for their brand new 2018 desktop PC lineup which would take place on 8th October, at 10 a.m. EDT. The event will be live streamed to the audience and would include several announcements ranging from desktop CPUs to accompanying platforms which would support them.
Now Intel has promised new desktop updates at Computex 2018 and that mentioned not only the new Coffee Lake-R (Refresh) parts but also the Basin Falls refresh series and a new Skylake-X Core-X lineup featuring up to 28 cores. Intel did demo their flagship 28 core part at the Computex stage but we haven't really heard of it again since back then. I think this would be the right opportunity for Intel to discuss more not only their mainstream but also their High-End desktop lineup as it is currently facing some really heated competition from the Ryzen Threadripper lineup, both in price and performance segments.
The official tweet made by Intel's twitter handle reveals at the very end what seems like the same packaging which got leaked earlier. The packaging is said to be specific to the Core i9-9900K, the flagship 8 core mainstream processor. If you're really looking forward to upgrading your PC and buying a new processor, then you should definitely tune into this event to check out what Intel has to offer to you (the consumer) for this year and ahead. We will be making sure to post a link to the live stream when it's available.

Wildfire burns on reservation; communities evacuated
WARM SPRINGS — A fire tore through dry grass and brush on an Indian reservation in Oregon and burned several old, unoccupied buildings as it grew to 53 square miles on Friday.
Fire officials said several small communities have been evacuated.
A Red Cross Shelter has been set up at the Warm Springs Community Center, but no evacuees were staying there yet, center employee Sophia Suppah said. The Red Cross has set up cots, and it has food and first aid equipment ready, Suppah said.
The fire got the attention of Gov. Kate Brown, who announced the state fire marshal is mobilizing resources to help protect buildings. The fire on the Warm Springs Indian Reservation started Tuesday Aug. 8 on adjacent private property. Firefighters using two helicopters, three dozers and 16 fire engines have the blaze only 4 percent contained.
About 105 structures are currently threatened, including those at Kah-Nee-Ta Resort and a nearby fish hatchery, Brown said in a statement. However, employees at the resort said over the phone that they were only under a level one evacuation level, which means people should be aware of the danger and monitor emergency services websites and local media for information. They said the sky was smoky, but they noted that it has been that way for over a week from other fires in the area and in Canada.
The cause of the fire was listed as human in the official incident report, though authorities haven't announced the cause yet.
On Thursday, large plumes of smoke appeared every 20 minutes or so as the fire torched trees, The Bulletin newspaper reported. Ash sporadically fell from the sky like snow in the 104-degree heat.
Wildfire is a fact of summer life on the reservation and in much of Oregon. But Elizabeth Simtustus, whose house was included in an evacuation notice, said this is more dangerous than the standard Warm Springs blaze.
"The other ones weren't as close to houses as this has been," she said.
Despite the threat, she and many residents decided to stay put — at least for now — rather go to the shelter.
"It's my family home," she said. "I'm the third generation to live in that house. I was born in that house. I don't want to see it burned up just like that."


It seems the holidays start earlier every year – we've seen Christmas décor in stores before Halloween – and retailers are already starting to advertise their Black Friday deals. Recent research predicts online sales will hit a record $124.1 billion during the 2018 holiday season, nearly 15 percent higher than last year. But with more people shopping online than ever before, it means that more than just savings are at stake.
We did some digging into the top 10 U.S. e-retailers by e-commerce sales in 2018, made a list and checked it twice to see which sites best protect your personal information from all too common data breaches so your steals and deals don't cost more than they should.
Specifically, we researched key password requirements and other account security features to develop a ranking of the five most and least secure retail sites, based on whether and how well they met a set of criteria. Check out our results below.
Only two of the ten top retailers, Apple and Amazon, offer two-factor authentication (2FA) for customer accounts. 2FA provides an additional layer of security toward preventing unauthorized access to an account and retailers cannot underestimate its importance. When setting up an online account with an e-retailer (or any website), be sure to check the security settings and set up two-factor authentication whenever possible.
Just say no to social media sign-on.
Five of the top e-retailers let you use social media logins for Google or Facebook, for example, to create accounts on their sites without having to set a new password, a practice referred to as single sign-on. While single sign-on means one less password to create and remember, it also means that if that social media site is compromised, all the personal information shared with other sites accessed via that login become at risk of attack or compromise, too. Facebook, for example, recently disclosed that the personal information of nearly 50 million users was exposed.
The more requirements, the better.
Security experts agree that the longer and more complicated the password, the more secure your account. Eight out of the 10 e-retailers allow passwords up to 20 characters. It's always a good sign when a website requires you to include a variety of uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers and symbols. Just make sure to create a long password even if it's not required.
Generate new passwords as you sign up for accounts.
Our research shows that the fear of forgetting a password is the biggest reason for reuse, but luckily, most e-retailers make it fairly easy to create a new password if you forget it. Every single account that you create online should have a different password. Using a password manager is one easy way to ensure you have a new, strong password for every online account without having to worry about remembering it.
We were glad to see that all 10 of the top e-retailers secure your session on their site, denoted by an HTTPS rather than plain HTTP in the search bar. Beyond that, the most basic but important advice we can give is to stick with companies you know. Sure, you can check for Yelp or social media reviews, but those are easy to fake, so your best bet is confirming a site's legitimacy first or avoiding it altogether.
We conducted the online retailer account security research in October 2018. Using market research firm eMarketer's list of the top 10 U.S. retailers based on e-commerce sales in 2018, LastPass researched key password requirements and other account security features to develop a ranking of the most and least secure retail sites. Each site was analyzed based on a set of 17 criteria, with a scale of either 0 to 2 or 0 to 10 points depending whether and how well the criteria were met.
Criteria includes the following: password requirements, including minimum/maximum characters and character types allowed; whether these requirements and any helpful tips are given; whether the websites employ a password strength meter to encourage longer passwords; the use of security questions; whether HTTPS is used when any information is entered; how much personal information is collected (name, birthday, address, email, phone); the use of two-factor authentication; whether sites allow sign-on using social media logins; and, what companies do if a user forgets their password.

Good review, I'm a big fan of the lithium batteries. When I use them to power my boat lights on my kayak the lights are real bright all the way until the battery dies. With the lead-acid ones, as the battery is dying my lights get dim putting me in danger of getting hit by another boat. In a lightweight is a big factor when you're bringing multiple batteries.
where did you get it in Canada? i could not find any. I am in Ottawa. Thanks.
Hey seabass do you need a different charger for the lithium battery, or will the charger from my helix 7 work?
was looking at these at scheels the other day!
good to watch a honest unbiased review. looking forward to the next one.

Ophelia (United States) by Jamie Sims
What happens when grief becomes the third party in a relationship? What exists in the silence of the silent partner when the other descends into self-destruction?

Q: How long and what type of complexity would have been involved in Chris Sawyer writing most of rollercoaster tycoon in assembler? From this question, I have another question about...
How long and what type of complexity would have been involved in Chris Sawyer writing most of rollercoaster tycoon in assembler?
In order to specify and break this question down, I am interested in;

*

*Approximately how many man hours (have a guess) do you estimate it would have taken Chris to write the game by himself? Or alternatively give an approximate percentage of the ratio of assembler coding hours to say, writing the whole thing in C/C++.

*Do the programmers that know assembler well think of this as an overly complex task for such a low level language abstraction? Apart from performance benefits is this just a freakish natural ability that Chris has, or a skillset worthy of learning to that extent? I'm interested if people think the complexity/performance thing is worth learning assembler that well (in order to write), or is it only "worth it" if you have a lot of naturally developed skills in assembler (presumably from working with hardware/hardware drivers/electronics/etc).

A: If you think of C as little more than a "high-level" assembler, and we make the assumption that Chris was not make mad optimizations to his assembly code in every routine, then I would imagine in terms of % time longer, then it might not be that much more for a skilled assembly programmer.
Assembly gets complicated when you're doing all those mad optimizations (vectorising operations, making use of special instruction sets (SSE, etc) bit twiddling, etc) that you simply can't do from C. If you're doing that stuff, then the time is actually in the "fiddle this bit, assemble, measure... fiddle this bit, assemble, measure..." loop and not in the actual coding. With a good macro assembler and a skilled programmer, then writing assembly is not a huge step down from writing C code.
Still, I wouldn't have been able to do it! I shudder to think about trying to initialize DirectX directly in assembly! (Edit: Wikipedia tells me that he wrote some parts in C to "interface with the Windows operating system" so I guess he wasn't initializing DirectX in assembly then... phew!)

A: Another person known for writing a lot of Windows programs in assembler is Steve Gibson, author of SpinRite, ShieldsUp! and other utilities.  He discusses his love of assembly language here.
Randy Hyde (whom I used to know way back when we were both writing 6502 assembly code for the Apple II) has a new online book called Windows Programming in Assembly Language.  He is a big proponent of using fancy macros (including looping constructs) to make assembly programming more like using a high-level language.  Sawyer probably used a similar approach to be more productive.

A: From reading his rough bio, it looks like two years (early 1997 to late 1998).  Given that he seems to be a 'one project at a time' person and the tool set and timeframe isn't great for 'team development', I would assume a straight 24 programmer-months.
At that point he had been a professional games programmer working in assembly since 1983, so I wouldn't equate "two Chris years" to "two me years" of work.
Given that most professional games take around 25-person years for a team to develop, two-person years for an industry leading game is an amazing accomplishment, lending creedence to the sayings:

*

*A great programmer is 10x more productive than a good programmer

*The programmer is more important than the language for productivity

So in this case how much faster would Rollercoaster Tycoon be written had Chris used C or Java or Javascript or ...?  Probably it wouldn't have mattered other than the fact that he may have been a bit slower using a higher level language that he didn't have 14 years experience with...

The Journey: African Students Tell Their Stories At Taste of Africa
By Maia Anderson | Nov 13, 2018 | Culture, Events
Maia Anderson | Asst. Culture Editor
The walls in McGuffey's auditorium were lined with flags representing Africa's 54 countries as the African Students' Union hosted their annual Taste of Africa event Saturday evening.
This year, ASU partnered with Alpha Kappa Alpha's Lambda Mu Chapter, the first nationally recognized historically black sorority. The event featured music, dance, food and stories of African students' experiences at Miami.
Each year ASU organizes a feast representing a variety of countries. This year there was food from Nigeria, Ghana, Jamaica, Kenya and Eritrea, with a menu including jollof rice, doro wat, curry goat and samosas.
The theme of the night was "The Journey," and to emphasize this, ASU created a video documenting several students' experiences travelling from Africa to the U.S. Many stories echoed one another; they came for a better education or to have a chance for more opportunities in the workforce.
One such student was Irene Kabinga, a second-year architecture graduate student from Tanzania. Kabinga is an international student who decided to come to the United States for her masters after completing her undergraduate degree at a university in her home country. She was offered a scholarship to study at Miami, so she took the opportunity in hopes of receiving the best education possible.
Kabinga says while she has enjoyed her time in the States, she misses Tanzanian cuisine.
"My favorite part of Taste of Africa is the food. I don't get this kind of food here a lot," said Kabinga. "I used to like pizza, but I'm already sick of it."
In another video, ASU member Akosua Boadi-Agyemang, an international student from Botswana, described some of the struggles she encountered when she arrived at Miami. She discussed her peers asking her what it was like to grow up in a hut, illustrating the misconceptions many Americans have about Africa. Another international student from Kenya said she experienced similar situations, and was shocked that some students did not know that Kenya was a developed country with cities and cars.
Juniors Eric Laub and Johnny Barrow also came to Taste of Africa, despite having no affiliation with the group or its nearly 40 members.
"I saw the poster and saw free food," said Barrow. "I didn't know what to expect, but I came and I was very delighted."
Neither Barrow nor Laub have attended an ASU event in the past, but were immediately attracted to the atmosphere.
"I liked the energy of the dance," said Laub. "People seemed to be really into what was going on, and I think that made the event a lot more enjoyable."
The stories of their peers' efforts just to be able to attend the same university also touched them.
"I liked hearing about people's journeys and their struggles," said Barrow. "It was nice to hear their voices."
The ASU Dance Team performed a medley of dances, led by dance coordinator Arnold Kamazima. Kamazima, in his third year as dance coordinator, said the group serves to highlight the importance of dance in African culture.
"A lot of people know a big portion of African culture is food and language, but music and dance are also really big parts," said Kamazima. "We make it a point to have different dances from different countries and the diaspora, and we focus on modern dances."
While Kamazima has no formal dance training, he says it is an important way for him to express himself.
"What I love about African dances is, even though we're all doing the same moves, everybody has a different style and facial expressions," said Kamazima. "It's all about being yourself."
