The Brilliant (Round Brilliant) Cut is the most popular polished diamond shape; with a round girdle outline, eight bezel facets, eight pavilion facets and sixteen upper and lower girdle facets on the crown and pavilion, plus a table facet and eight star facets on the crown (57 Facets). A diamond's light performance, including fire and scintillation, are maximised with this style of cut.
Princess Cut diamonds became popular in the 1970's. It has a square outline with a shallow crown containing 17 or 21 facets, and 24, 32 or 40 pavilion facets. Princess Cut diamonds are also recognisable by their exceptional light performance―rivaled only by the round brilliant cut.
Radiant Cut diamonds have a square or rectangular outline, with a pointed culet and a crown facet arrangement similar to a Princess Cut. Radiants combine the rectangular facets of step cuts with triangular and kite shaped facets of brilliants, taking advantage of both styles, while cutting and polishing the diamond to best fit the rough crystal.


The purpose of this lab is to introduce you to some of the Maple commands that can be used to plot surfaces in three dimensions.
You can copy the worksheet now, but you should read through the lab before you load it into Maple. Once you have read to the exercises, start up Maple, load the worksheet Surf_start.mws, and go through it carefully. Then you can start working on the exercises.
The graph of a function of a single real variable is a set of points in the plane. Typically, the graph of such a function is a curve. For functions of two variables in Cartesian coordinates, the graph is a set of points in three-dimensional space. For this reason, visualizing functions of two variables is usually more difficult. For students, it is usually even more difficult if the surface is described in terms of polar or spherical coordinates.
One of the most valuable services provided by computer software such as Maple is that it allows us to produce intricate graphs with a minimum of effort on our part. This becomes especially apparent when it comes to functions of two variables, because there are many more computations required to produce one graph, yet Maple performs all these computations with only a little guidance from the user.
The simplest way of describing a surface in Cartesian coordinates is as the graph of a function over a domain, e.g. a set of points in the plane. The domain can have any shape, but a rectangular one is the easiest to deal with. Another common, but more difficult way of describing a surface is as the graph of an equation , where is a constant. In this case, we say the surface is defined implicitly. A third way of representing a surface is through the use of level curves. The idea is that a plane intersects the surface in a curve. The projection of this curve on the plane is called a level curve. A collection of such curves for different values of is a representation of the surface called a contour plot.
Some surfaces are difficult to describe in Cartesian coordinates, but easy to describe using either cylindrical or spherical coordinates. The obvious examples are cylinders and spheres, but there are many other situations where these coordinate systems are useful.
What does the contour plot look like in the regions where the surface plot has a steep incline? What does it look like where the surface plot is almost flat?
What can you say about the surface plot in a region where the contour plot looks like a series of nested circles?
Generate a surface plot for the following functions on the domains given.
for and . Use cylindrical coordinates.
for and . Use spherical coordinates.
Use the implicitplot3d command to plot the graph of the elliptic cylinder for .
which represents the deviation, in inches, of last year's rainfall from the average annual rainfall in a certain area. Considering only the domain and , use a contour plot to find the region in this domain in which the deviation was at least in. but no more than in.

The specific phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) inhibitors wortmannin and LY294002 have been invaluable tools for elucidating the roles of these enzymes in signal transduction pathways. The X-ray crystallographic structures of PI3Kgamma bound to these lipid kinase inhibitors and to the broad-spectrum protein kinase inhibitors quercetin, myricetin, and staurosporine reveal how these compounds fit into the ATP binding pocket. With a nanomolar IC50, wortmannin most closely fits and fills the active site and induces a conformational change in the catalytic domain. Surprisingly, LY294002 and the lead compound on which it was designed, quercetin, as well as the closely related flavonoid myricetin bind PI3K in remarkably different orientations that are related to each other by 180 degrees rotations. Staurosporine/PI3K interactions are reminiscent of low-affinity protein kinase/staurosporine complexes. These results provide a rich basis for development of isoform-specific PI3K inhibitors with therapeutic potential.

Add every one of the images you will find about your small business. Choose the keyword through the list that Google Places offers you, after which add as many more keywords as allowed. Once your Google Places entry is eligible, have 3 of the customers write a review of one's business on Google Places.

Local seo might possibly not have ideal results for those who are targeting international keywords, nevertheless the some time to resources that you will be gonna invest it is well-worth just how much that you will be gonna spend for it. This is the reason why there are many of people that will almost always be doing local SEO as an alternative to doing organic SEO, the industry harder and longer process.
Through the years, business happens to be influenced with changes in technology. In the 18th on the 1800s, the Industrial Revolution, which introduced breakthroughs in agriculture, mining, transportation as well as other areas, helped implement alterations in commerce, many of which survive approximately today. In later years, science maintained discovering technologies that helped improved communications and, eventually, business activities.
Global companies or statewide companies need broad SEO techniques. They target a number of regions. Smaller, more local companies differ because they require a far more narrow search engine marketing tactics focus. It is for that reason that seo companies use different tactics when marketing local companies. It is necessary to focus on an inferior geographic area and to use more specific terms.
A reference off their companies is among the best indicators the consultant can deliver on their promises. Whether it be videos testimonial about the consultant's website or speaking directly with a reference, this is probably the best approaches to uncover what the category of seo business person you are thinking about utilizing.

When targeting a local segment, your local area could be the magic word which is often employed in various ways to ensure a great SEO. While searching for a particular product, people usually use their location within their search.

In this scenario, you have to make different pages for different locations.
Once you have read what Google Places is focused on, immediately setup an account and optimize it by posting great shots of one's products and making sure that they're tagged on their proper categories. Do not forget to put basic operation information for example the days and hours when you find yourself open for business.
You can often find a healthy debate among people about which approach is best. That is the reason why you may see inconsistent positions about search engine positions because some consider it as time not well spent. There are actually countless net marketers who believe that it is low benefit work. A lot of online marketers think there is certainly an excessive amount of effort needed, and the gains do not rationalize all that work. We all realize that off page SEO is a thing that must be constantly worked on. Then other people will point out that search algorithms are constantly changing, and you never really know what will happen. The work is hardly ever fun, but if you achieve fantastic results the work will be worth the cost. You also desire to steer clear of the worst mistakes you can make with SEO.
If you pay any consideration at all, then you certainly know the past algorithm revision by Google is geared towards poor content. While there is no alternative for search rankings that is without flaws. However, apparently Google is generating a serious attempt to favor quality information over mass produced content of lower quality. They are undoubtedly placing a much stronger inclination on sites that are more expert in nature. It is the authority site that is evidently being desired in this latest change from them. The most significant take-away out of this is to create the best content possible that gives good value.
You can give your blog optimization some extra help with sound linking within internal webpages. Certainly you always desire to backlink to your interior pages more than to your home page. But far more around the worth of links on your inner pages. Needless to say you should backlink your inner pages for reasons which will be clear in a moment. Given that your inner pages are linking out to your home page, they will supply backlink page rank to your home page. For blogs, there is one or more plugin that conveniently builds links to similar posts right after each post you make. For non-blogs, or standard websites, then simply embed good anchor text within your content and link to other pages of content.
You need to get involved with social websites and the various resources that make it quicker to share. The purpose is so your readers have the ability to tell their buddies about your site. Place icons, or utilize plugins, that include links for posting to Facebook as well as Twitter at a minimum. Even though Facebook is on fire around the globe, Twitter remains a significant player so that it is necessary to include them. Optimizing your websites for social networking is fast becoming an important Background Marketing consideration.

If you are having a vegan dish that is heavier inside the oil or fat department you need to select a wine that has a medium body using a slightly elevated amount of tannins. Because oils coat the mouth, you should pick a wine that can cut through (think dry up) the oils which are a part of a dish. Merlot would have been a good choice here as the tannins are believed softer, but slightly elevated. Cabernet is acceptable in the event the tannins were moderately soft. Remember, ensure overpower your food but build a marriage of flavors. Wine is designed to increase the taste of the meat. I rarely drink a Cabernet with any vegan meal unless the wine includes a softer feel with lower tannins. It features a tendency to overpower the flavors with the food. This is why more and more people like the taste of red wines with real meat. Animal flesh is incredibly pungent with good amounts of fat. It needs to be paired having a wine that could give it a run due to the money inside intensity department. The only time I pair dark wine using a vegan dish is the place the foodstuff features a creamy or heartier consistency being a stroganoff or stew.

This may sound negative, in case you provide your website with the qualified keywords such as the city, town or state matched with original keyword searched it might develop a new keyword function that the business can utilize for the gain. This is another Google local SEO undeniable fact that it is possible to take advantage of while you reach your target customers in several locations.

If Dems Want POTUS to Release Tax Returns, Pass a Law for Everyone Instead of Targeting One Person
On Friday's broadcast of Bloomberg's "Balance of Power," Rep. Nicole Malliotakis (R-NY) stated that the release of former President Donald Trump's tax returns is "Democrats on the Ways and Means Committee weaponizing their role against what is now a private citizen" and that if they want to require presidents to release their tax returns, they should pass a law to require it for everyone, instead of "targeting one individual."
Host David Westin asked, [relevant exchange begins around 22:50] "[T]hese Trump tax returns, I haven't gone through them. I suspect you haven't gone through them. I don't know what's in there. Who knows whether it's right, wrong, or indifferent? But I wonder, more broadly, are we opening up a Pandora's box here about releasing tax returns?"
Malliotakis responded, "I certainly think that this is the Democrats on the Ways and Means Committee weaponizing their role against what is now a private citizen. This has always been an issue that is left up to the discretion of the candidate. He was very honest and said he wasn't releasing them and people elected him anyway. But, at the end of the day, if they want to require it by law, then they should do so in statute, not just targeting one individual. So, I think that is where it becomes a weaponization of the committee against a particular person who is a private citizen today. So, if you're going to do it, you pass a law that requires everyone to release it, not just target one person."

Main page / Strabismus. What is it? / Amblyopia ("lazy eye")
Amblyopia ("lazy eye") is a functional and reversible reduction of vision in the course of which one of the two eyes is almost not used (or not at all) in the vision process. The eyes register different images an d the brain fails to bring them together. This eventually suppresses functioning of one of the eyes.
Patients with amblyopia disorder have no binocular vision, i.e. the ability of the brain to correctly bring images of both eyes into one. This ability is essential for the estimation of the depth and the sequence of the objects within the field of vision, and the entity of perception. Amblyopia makes all this impossible.
Amblyopia: the causes
Amblyopia may develop due to a number of reasons. Strabismus is the most common cause. Amblyopia combined with strabismus is the result of the latter. While amblyopia in its turn may cause strabismus. This happens when one eye has such a low vision power (usually lower than 0.4-0.3 D) that combined imaging is not possible. The reason for low vision acuity lies in the changes which occur in the fundus of the eye, in the cornea, etc..
Amblyopia may affect people whose relatives suffered from strabismus and those who never had such problems.
It is essential to identify amblyopia as early as possible since with time this disorder progresses to the extent of complete suppression of the visual functions of the amblyopia affected eye.
It is important to bear in mind that it is hardly possible to identify amblyopia independently and that this disorder does not disappear with time. Quite often, a person accidentally closes one eye and realizes that the second eye is blind. That is why doctors recommend regular diagnostic checks at least once a year. Specialists point out that amblyopia may developed as a result of continuous absence of correction for refraction pathology, when a person does not wear glasses or contact lens and the eyes do not discern what a good vision and a bad vision are.
Treatment for amblyopia
Treatment for amblyopia may proceed in various directions: training of the amblyopic eye, true correction of ametrophy (optical defect), and removal of strobismus. The Excimer Eye Clinic conducts therapeutic treatment of amblyopia with Amblyocor – a unique apparatus which has been developed by leading specialists of the Institute of Brain. It is hard to believe that only a few years ago, ophthalmologists had no effective method to combat amblyopia (the "lazy eye"). Coordinated eye functioning could be restored then but not stereoscopic vision unfortunately (or not to a full extent).
Application of "Amblyocor"
Amblyocor operates on the basis of video-computerized autotraining. While the patient watches a film or a cartoon, the apparatus uses gauges to register data on the function of eyes simultaneously fixing an encephalogram of the brain. The image on the screen is retained only during "correct" vision and disappears as soon as it becomes unclear. In this way, the instrument stimulates the brain to subconsciously reduce the periods of uncontrolled vision. This method optimizes the performance of the neurons in the visual cortex, thus improving vision considerably.

If you plan to live on campus, membership in two organizations is automatically included. You'll be part of your residence hall and one of Cottey's four societies-Alphan (purple), Delphian (yellow), Emerson (red), or Magnoperian (green). Visit the traditions page for a full rundown on what these societies mean. The societies organize activities such as sponsoring dances and competing with each other in sports events.

Microsoft on Wednesday released a new Technical Preview build (10061), making many improvements to its Mail and Calendar apps, along with improvements to the Start menu, task bar and action center. This update comes on the heels of an update Microsoft introduced late last month, which included the company's new Spartan browser.
The biggest and most noticeable changes happen in Mail and Calendar; if you've used Microsoft mobile apps, the new additions will feel wonderfully familiar. For example, Mail now includes customizable swipe gestures, allowing you to swipe right or left to take a specific action (delete, flag, move, etc.).
Microsoft has introduced some terrific changes to its apps over the past few months, and Mail is yet another example of Microsoft flexing its design/functionality muscle.
Additionally, the new build also includes a new black system theme across the Start menu (which can now be resized), task bar and action center; Microsoft also said the first two have been imbued with some transparency for a cleaner and more modern look. And like Apple's Yosemite update, the new Windows 10 build has support for AutoColor, which pulls the primary color from your desktop background. It's a small touch, but a welcome one nonetheless.
Other features include improvements made to Continuum, task view and virtual desktop. Gabe Aul, the lead of the Windows Insider Program, also highlighted a number of issues that have been fixed in the newest build, along with a list of issues that Microsoft is aware of, but haven't yet been addressed. You can see all of that down below.
Microsoft is holding its BUILD conference next week, so perhaps we'll learn even more information about Windows 10. As of now, the company is aiming to release the update sometime this summer.
We have fixed have fixed the issue where Indexing of new email in Outlook was not working.
We know this one will be a bit painful but there is a bug with this build in which Win32 (desktop) apps won't launch from the Start menu. The workaround is to use search to find and launch these apps and pin them to your taskbar for quick access.

The first thing to remember when choosing a crib mattress, is that babies cannot lift their heads up from a soft mattress if they get turned over at night. Look for a crib mattress that is firmer than an adult mattress. Pick the crib mattress up in the middle and squeeze it with each hand on opposite sides to test it for firmness. Foam crib mattresses are another option. They are less heavy, less expensive but just as safe as conventional crib mattresses. In conventional, coil crib mattresses, wire gauge and coil count will determine the mattress firmness.
During their first seven months of life, babies will spend most of their time asleep, so providing a natural, chemical-free crib mattress for them is a good way to ensure them a healthy beginning.
Organic cotton bedding can reduce irritants in crib mattresses and pure wool will serve as a natural fire retardant. Some baby mattresses also include an anti-microbial top layer to reduce germs from spit-ups and diaper mishaps.
Multi-layer covers comprised of triple layers of vinyl or waterproof fabric is recommended for durability in a crib mattress.

Miyako Ishiuchi
Yokosuka Story
In Tate Britain
Miyako Ishiuchi born 1947
Photograph, gelatin silver print on paper
Image: 115 x 158 mm
Purchased with assistance from the artist through The Third Gallery Aya, Nishi-ku Osaka, Japan, with funds provided by the Photography Acquisitions Committee 2013
Yokosuka Story 1977, by the Japanese photographer Miyako Ishiuchi, comprises forty vintage black and white prints which are typically displayed in a large grid. As the title suggests, the work depicts the town of Yokosuka, a small port in Japan where Ishiuchi grew up during the 1950s and 1960s, when the town was the site of a large American naval base. In these years of military occupation the town was infiltrated by American culture and in turn the visual landscape reflected this struggle between local and foreign, past and present and the uncertainty of Japan's future identity. Like other slightly older Japanese photographers associated with the 'Provoke' movement, such as Shomei Tomatsu and Daido Moriyama, with whom she worked, Ishiuchi was part of the post-war generation who used their cameras to record and explore what it meant to be Japanese at this pivotal moment in history. The Provoke movement experimented with photographic techniques in order to offer a more subjective and radical vision of society in Japan post-Hiroshima, focusing on the alienation and disaffection characterising urban life.
Shot in 1977, Yokosuka Story was followed by two other series, Apartment 1979 and Endless Night 1981, which together later came to be known as a trilogy of early works. They were revisited in the publication Sweet Home Yokosuka 1976–1980 (PPP Editions, New York 2010). Photographed in the winter, the images that make up Yokosuka Story are deliberately grainy and dark, printed with high contrast. Ishiuchi documents various aspects of the town, from narrow streets of residential housing, to the architectural details of commercial buildings and views of the port and ocean. Often shot from a moving car, the images are sometimes set at a diagonal, with tilted horizons and cropped framing. This aesthetic is characteristic of photography associated with the Provoke movement. Unlike the two later series, Yokosuka Story is the only work from this early period in Ishiuchi's career which contains images of people. The citizens of Yokosuka are depicted going about their daily lives, not necessarily aware of the presence of the photographer. Ishiuchi is also present in one of the photographs, in which she captures her shadow while photographing a dog.
Ishiuchi's work is often referred to as stoic and unsentimental; she appears not to be concerned with the documentary process, but interested in capturing the passing of time and the experience of a place while photographing. This also holds true for her processing of images in the darkroom. For Ishiuchi this work is an integral part of realising the photograph and bears much more significance than simply producing high quality prints. In Yokosuka Story she often exposed the photographic paper for long periods of time, sometimes up to thirty minutes, turning skies that would usually appear white into a dark and grainy grey. This long exposure time can also be seen as related to her desire to transfer onto each image the entire memory of the experience of shooting the picture.

Outreach hub
The Library is here to support your research, the communication of your research findings, and the development of your research profile through a variety of specialist help, resources and services. The Scholarly Communications team can help you share, disseminate, and publishing your research findings so that they are available to local or global academic and public communities.
There are two main teams that support researchers:
Academic Liaison Librarians
Scholarly Communications Team
We are based in the Library, part of the Learning Resources Directorate. There is a dedicated Academic Liaison Librarian for each main discipline at Oxford Brookes. You can find your Librarian from the Course resource help pages. As well as Librarian contact details, these pages include information on subject specific resources, training, support for referencing and guides.
Your Academic Liaison Librarian can provide specialist help with finding information and resources for your research. We can assist you in accessing quality resources, including books, journals, databases, conference proceedings, theses and grey literature. We can also provide tips and techniques for developing search strategies, keeping up to date with your research area, managing and organising references using software services such as EndNote. We offer training and support via 1:1 appointments and email, so do contact us.
Contact your Academic Liaison Librarian
We are based in Learning Resources / the Library and we are:
Dan Croft: Scholarly Communications Team Leader
Joseph Ripp: Research Outputs Manager
Susan Wilkin: Library Assistant (Scholarly Communications)
Hazel King: Library Assistant (Scholarly Communications)
Our main role is to support staff and student researchers at Oxford Brookes with sharing, disseminating, and publishing their research findings so that they are available to local or global academic and public communities. This overall aim involves us in a number of areas of interest such as Open Access, research data management, research impact, research assessment, REF 2021, digitisation of archives, copyright and intellectual property.
What tools do we use?
The main tool we use to disseminate research findings is RADAR (Research Archive and Digital Asset Repository) which is the institutional repository of Oxford Brookes.
In a more limited way we also work with Converis (also called the CRIS, or Current Research Information System) which we use to communicate with Oxford Brookes researchers to make sure that we have all the information we need to support those researchers to meet the REF 2021 Open Access requirements.
Converis is how researchers tell Oxford Brookes what research activity they are taking part in, while RADAR is how Oxford Brookes publicly shares that research with researchers from other institutions and the general public.
Converis also feeds information to your Oxford Brookes web profile and can be used to produce a CV for your Personal Research Plan meeting, so please put the bibliographic details of all your publications onto the CRIS that you would like to appear on your web profile.

Bibliometrics and Altmetrics
Bibliometrics are a way to quantify the readership of research publications in the academic community based on the number of times that the publications are referenced in other academic publications.
There are many bibliometrics services and each one may have a unique set of propriety metrics. Oxford Brookes has a subscription to the Web of Science database which includes a set of bibliometric services at the levels of both the article (e.g. Times Cited) and journal (e.g. Journal Impact Factor).
Altmetrics are similar to Bibliometrics in that they try to quantify the reach of research publications, but instead of relying on academic citations they instead draw upon how often the publication is mentioned on social media, in the news, in governmental documents, and on other online platforms.
The leading service for Altmetrics is probably Altmetric.com - we have linked RADAR to Altmetric.com so that any record with a DOI (Digital Object Identifier) and that has an Altmetric score greater than 0 will display an Altmetric.com badge in the Related Resources section at the bottom of the page (e.g. this output with a very high Altmetric score).
The information from Altmetric.com may indicate where research 'impact' (i.e. affecting a change beyond the academic community) has happened (e.g. if it has been cited in a government policy document).
Whilst bibliometrics and altmetrics can offer a useful perspective on the reach of research publications they can be misunderstood and misapplied. Initiatives such as the San Francisco Declaration on Research Assessment (also known as DORA) and the Leiden Manifesto for Research Metrics argue for the responsible use of metrics in research assessment.
Developing your research profile
Here are two resources created by external institutions to help you develop your research profile:
Vitae: a non-profit programme supporting the professional development of researchers
UK Research and Innovation advice on developing a career in research
Intellectual Property and Copyright
Oxford Brookes has an 'Intellectual property policy and regulations' document that can be accessed from the Policies and codes of practice webpage.
One key aspect of the policy is that Oxford Brookes has waived the intellectual property rights that the institution could exercise over the research publications that Oxford Brookes research staff produce, meaning it belongs to the authors themselves.
The Scholarly Communications Team recommend that researchers consider the value of their intellectual property before giving the copyright of their publications to a publisher as part of a publishing contract. Some scholarly publishers only request the licensing rights of the publications rather than the copyright, which means that the authors retain ownership of the content of the publications.
An ORCID is a persistent and unique identifier for a researcher.
By signing up for an ORCID number you help to establish your research profile and distinguish yourself from any other researcher with a similar name.
ORCID numbers are increasingly important to the workflows of research funders, institutions, and scholarly publishers.

Facial oil is a skin saver in winter because of its ultimate moisture-boosting formula! Not only does it replenish your skin's natural moisture regimen, but also protects it from future moisture loss. Melvita Rose Hip Oil is made from the seeds of the Chilean wild rose, which is rich in essential fatty acids and nourishes and regenerates even the most delicate, lifeless skin. It helps reduce stretch marks and softens the appearance of blemishes while making the complexion more radiant.
Cold winter months are coming up! Itchiness and inflammation are easily caused. But no worries! An oatmeal bath is an effective and inexpensive solution to soothe a variety of skin problems. Prepare 1 cup of unflavored instant oatmeal. Soak in the tub for 15 to 20 minutes and gently rub some oatmeal on the skin. Isn't it simple to make? The healing power of oat is undoubtedly amazing as it instantly helps soothe irritation, leaving skin so soft afterwards. Soak yourself in an oatmeal bath once a week!
Exfoliation during winter is still necessary. But remember to replace your strong exfoliator with some gentler ones to protect your delicate skin in winter. Clarins Gentle Refiner Exfoliating Cream with Microbeads eliminates dead cells with a combination of exfoliating and refining microbeads. Exfoliating beads lift impurities. Refining beads deeply cleanse and tighten pores and smooth skin texture. Use it once a week. Over-exfoliation will only make skin irritated and the dry, flaky patches return and become worse. So enough is as good as a feast!
Indulging yourself in a hot bath is absolutely wonderful, especially when it is cold outside. But hot water will damage your delicate skin and remove the oils that keep skin hydrated. Other than reducing the amount of time you spend in the bath and not using water that is extremely hot, it is a wise idea to apply body moisturizer every time after a bath. L'Occitane Ultra Rich Body Cream has ultimate moisturising power with a high (25%) concentration of Shea Butter. A pampering, whipped cream enriched with linseed, mallow, sweet almond and honey extracts, apricot oil and vitamin E. Enchants with a light fragrance of jasmine and ylang-ylang essences, caressing body and mood wherever your day takes you.
Hope you find these winter skin treats useful! Our editors are going to share with you several absolutely amazing beauty products that are on trend in the next post. Stay tuned for it!
