Intercomparison of global river discharge simulations focusing on dam operation --- Part II: Multiple models analysis in two case-study river basins, Missouri-Mississippi and Green-Colorado
Masaki, Yoshimitsu and Hanasaki, Naota and Biemans, Hester and Müller Schmied, Hannes and Tang, Qiuhong and Wada, Yoshihide and Gosling, Simon and Takahashi, Kiyoshi and Hijioka, Yasuaki (2017) Intercomparison of global river discharge simulations focusing on dam operation --- Part II: Multiple models analysis in two case-study river basins, Missouri-Mississippi and Green-Colorado.

We performed a twofold intercomparison of river discharge regulated by dams under multiple meteorological forcings among multiple global hydrological models for a historical period by simulation. Paper II provides an intercomparison of river discharge simulated by five hydrological models under four meteorological forcings. This is the first global multimodel intercomparison study on dam-regulated river flow. Although the simulations were conducted globally, the Missouri-Mississippi and Green-Colorado Rivers were chosen as case-study sites in this study. The hydrological models incorporate generic schemes of dam operation, not specific to a certain dam. We examined river discharge on a longitudinal section of river channels to investigate the effects of dams on simulated discharge, especially at the seasonal time scale. We found that the magnitude of dam regulation differed considerably among the hydrological models. The difference was attributable not only to dam operation schemes but also to the magnitude of simulated river discharge flowing into dams. That is, although a similar algorithm of dam operation schemes was incorporated in different hydrological models, the magnitude of dam regulation substantially differed among the models. Intermodel discrepancies tended to decrease toward the lower reaches of these river basins, which means model dependence is less significant toward lower reaches. These case-study results imply that, intermodel comparisons of river discharge should be made at different locations along the river's course to critically examine the performance of hydrological models because the performance can vary with the locations.

Q: TypeScript Recursive Partial confused when Classes share a property name I've been using a Conditional Type in TypeScript to create a Recursive Partial.  The issue I'm having is hard to explain without an example, so please see the code below (note: my particular use case is more complex, but the example illustrates the issue):
// The RecursivePartial type used in the illustration
type RecursivePartial<T> = {
    [P in keyof T]?:
      T[P] extends (infer U)[] ? RecursivePartial<U>[] :
      T[P] extends object ? RecursivePartial<T[P]> :
      T[P];
};

// A class we will use -- note it has a string property called "name"
// and a numeric property called "commonProperty"
export class Thingy1 {
    public constructor(public name: string) {}
    public commonProperty = 1;
}

// Another class we will use -- it has two properties that
// Thingy1 does not have (label and value) but it also has a
// numeric property called "commonProperty" just like Thingy1
export class Thingy2 {
    public constructor(public label: string, public value: number) {}
    public commonProperty = 2;
}

// A class with a property of type Thingy1
export class Thingy3 {
    public constructor(public thingy1: Thingy1) {}
}

// Define a RecursivePartial of Thingy3
const partialOfThingy3: RecursivePartial<Thingy3> = {};
// The following line illustrates the problem!  I set the Thingy1-type
// property to an instance of Thingy2, and TypeScript seems perfectly
// find with it!
// HOWEVER, if I change the commonProperty name (or remove it) from
// either the Thingy1 or Thingy2 class, TypeScript complains as expected
partialOfThingy3.thingy1 = new Thingy2("hi", 2); // This is allowed!

As noted in the comments, TypeScript allows us to set a property in the RecursivePartial to an object of a different type than the property in the original class.  This oddity happens only when the "different type" shares at least one property with the original class.
Is there a way to fix this behavior so that the Conditional Type will not allow a property to be set to an object of an incorrect type just because that type happens to share a property with the correct type?
Simplification thanks to kikon:
The following simplifies the example down to the root of the issue:
type RecursivePartialThingy3 = {
    thingy1?: {
        commonProperty?: number;
        name?: string;
    }
}

const partialOfThingy3: RecursivePartialThingy3 = {};
const thingy2 = {commonProperty: 2, label: "hi"};

// This is allowed:
partialOfThingy3.thingy1 = thingy2;

// And yet, this is NOT allowed:
partialOfThingy3.thingy1 = {commonProperty: 2, label: "hi"};

In the second case, TypeScript complains that "Object literal may only specify known properties, and 'label' does not exist in type '{ commonProperty?: number | undefined; name?: string | undefined; }'"
So why do we have two different requirements for type checking in these two cases?  Is it possible to tell TypeScript to issue a warning or error in the first case as it does in the second case?
Thanks!

A: If we simplify your code and expand the templates we'll see that this is the normal behavior of Typescript compatibility check:
type RecursivePartialThingy3 = {
    thingy1?: {
        commonProperty?: number;
        name?: string;
    }
}

const partialOfThingy3: RecursivePartialThingy3 = {};
const thingy2 = {commonProperty: 2, label: "hi", value: 2};
partialOfThingy3.thingy1 = thingy2; // This is allowed!

The assignment to property thingy1 is checked against the weak type Thingy1 using weak type detection so it's required to have at least one common property -- this is the reason you get the type ... has no common property with type ... error when you change the name of commonProperty.
On the additional part of the question
(for the record, initially a comment)
In TypeScript assigning an object literal is treated differently than assigning a variable to the same property. If the rhs value is a literal, it applies excess property checks.
This is not related to weak types, as one can see from this example:
type Thingy1 = {
  name : string
};
let thingy1: Thingy1;

const thingy2 = {name: "I", label: "a"};
thingy1 = thingy2;  // OK, regular compatibility rules of "structural typing"
thingy1 = {name: "I", label: "a"}; // ERROR: excess property checks

While one should treat this as a given (albeit funny) fact of TypeScript, and not analyze it much further, the only reasonable justification I found for it is that the compiler is concerned with mistyped properties:
type Thingy1 = {
  name : string;
  label?: string
};
let thingy1: Thingy1 = {name: "I", lbel: "a"}; // mistyped property "label"?

With the object literal assignment, the object literal only appears there, while if a variable is used, the typing error should be detected at the definition of that variable (and possibly with other uses of the same variable).

Q: Backwards Euler Method's error converges to step size (Python) I am trying to programmatically solve the ODE,
$$\displaystyle Y'( t) =-Y( t) +\frac{1}{1+t^{2}} +\tan^{-1}( t)$$
with initial condition $Y(0)=0$. I know the analytical solution is $\displaystyle Y( t) =\tan^{-1}( t)$.
I am using the formula for the backwards Euler Method, $$\displaystyle \boxed{y_{n+1} =y_{n} +hf( t_{n+1} ,\ y_{n+1})}$$
and am using an initial guess value as instructed from a book
$\displaystyle \overset{( 0)}{y_{n+1}} =y_{n+1,\ FE}$ which I obtain from the forward Euler Method, and then iterate over $$\displaystyle \overset{( k)}{y_{n+1}} =y_{n} +hf( t_{n+1} ,\ \overset{( k-1)}{y_{n+1})}$$
until it is sufficient enough to stop.
I have used code in python (found at the end), and have plotted the results obtained using both the forwards and backwards Euler Method for reference, as well as the difference of each method from the 'true result'.
Forwards and Backwards Euler Method Plots
My main question is regarding the difference of the backwards Euler Method's result from the true result obtained from np.arctan(t), and why it converges to the step size $h$.
The code,
import numpy as np
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
%matplotlib inline

h = 0.01 # step size
t0 = 0; tf = 10
numel = int(np.floor(((tf-t0)/h) + 1))

t = np.linspace(t0, tf, numel)
yf = np.zeros(numel) # forwards array
ybold = np.zeros(numel) # backwards arrays
ybnew = np.zeros(numel)
ytrue = np.zeros(numel)

yf[0] = 0; ybold[0] = 0; ybnew[0] = 0; # initial condition

for i in range(0, numel-1):
  # Forward Method
  yf[i+1] = yf[i] + h*(-yf[i] + 1/(1+(t[i]**2)) + np.arctan(t[i]))

  # Backward Method
  ybold[i+1] = yf[i+1]
  c = 0
  diff = 1
  while  diff > 0.00001 and c < 5:
    ybnew[i+1] = ybnew[i] + h*(-ybold[i+1] + 1/(1+(t[i+1]**2)) + np.arctan(t[i+1]))
    diff = ybnew[i+1] - ybold[i+1]
    ybold[i+1] = ybnew[i+1]
    c = c + 1

ytrue = np.arctan(t)

I believe I could have made a mistake when coding it, although if I have my mistake eludes me. Or, I am misunderstanding the errors of the Euler Methods.
Any help would be appreciated, thank you.

A:   while  diff > 0.00001 and c < 5:

will break the loop when diff = -1, so change to absolute values for the error bound
  while  abs(diff) > 0.00001 and c < 5:

Note that for a first-order method an error proportional to the step size falls in the expected behavior.

Mission Hill, Boston, Massachusetts Newspaper
Hill Agenda
Gazette marks 20 years of service
by John Ruch • April 5, 2013 • 0 Comments
The Mission Hill Gazette marks 20 years of serving the community this month.
The first issue of the Gazette hit the streets in April 1993. The front-page stories were about the controversial plan to sell the former English High School building in the Longwood Medical Area, and a profile of Mission Hill Little League co-founder Phil Doyle.
Sandra Storey, the former editor and publisher who founded the Gazette, recalled that the idea for a local newspaper came out of community demands. It had been several years since the prior local paper, "The Good News," ceased publishing.
"For years, Mission Hill would ask, 'Where's our newspaper?'" said Storey, who already was publishing the Jamaica Plain Gazette.
Mission Hill at the time struggled to express its concerns, in part because officials always considered the area as part of some other neighborhood, Storey said.
And it had been only a few years since Mission Hill faced perhaps the worst event in its history, the Charles Stuart murder hoax. In 1989, Stuart, a white man, drove his pregnant wife to Mission Hill and murdered her, then told police an African-American man committed the crime. It took months for the hoax to be revealed, while Mission Hill was stereotyped in major media as a terrible place and the police rounded up innocent local men.
"Charles Stuart happened and poor Mission Hill was in such a terrible spotlight," Storey recalled.
But at the same time, Mission Hill had many strong community institutions, from Mission Church to Roxbury Tenants of Harvard, Storey said.
"What a history of community leadership over there," she said.
Over the past 20 years, the neighborhood has changed dramatically. Massive redevelopments such as the reconstruction of the Mission Main housing complex and several former Mission Church properties have altered the landscape. More community organizations have arisen, including Mission Hill Main Streets and the Community Alliance of Mission Hill. Along the way, Storey said, the Gazette helped the neighborhood understand and carry out those changes.
"I think it certainly helped empower people," she said.
This photo of what was then called the "Ledge Site," largely vacant Harvard-owned land off Calumet Street in Brigham Circle, ran in the Gazette's first issue in 1993, when redevelopment was first considered. (Gazette File Photo)
The One Brigham Circle development on the former "Ledge Site" as it looked last week. Mission Hill Neighborhood Housing Services and other partners constructed the wildly successful commercial building and the adjacent Fitzgerald Park, which have been local landmarks for a decade.

Australian state to soon finalise order for miners to beef up coal supply
New South Wales is set to finalise an order by mid-February that will require all mining firms in Australia's biggest coal exporting state to reserve as much as 10% of their output for domestic supply. A Department of Planning and Environment spokesperson said the government would issue final directions after talks with miners. "The draft revised directions allow suppliers the option to provide coal from their own production or to strike an agreement from another supplier to meet their obligations under the directions," the spokesperson said.
EU coal rebound smaller than feared in 2022 energy crunch
European coal-fuelled power generation climbed last year as countries scrambled to replace Russian gas, but the increase was smaller than feared as renewable energy helped to plug the gap, researchers said on Tuesday. Russia, Europe's former top gas supplier, slashed deliveries to the European Union following its February 2022 invasion of Ukraine, plunging the 27-country bloc into a crisis of scarce energy supplies and soaring power prices. As a result, coal power's share of EU electricity generation rose by 1.5 percentage points in 2022, to account for 16% of annual generation, think-tank Ember said in a report.

Newstart problems
Australia has been described as a/the 'lucky country', and considering that we're thrown into the world, with no choice as to parentage, genetic inheritance, social environment or time period (or species, for that matter), it's pretty clear that being born or brought up in Australia in the second half of the twentieth century constitutes a lucky deal for most. I've recently been reading, with a deal of squeamish reluctance at times, stories and histories of the struggles and sufferings of today's Palestinians, either under Israeli authority or in impoverished and humiliated exile, which has further emphasised for me my sense of my own luck in the dice-throw of life.
But of course there are problems and inequities here too. I haven't written much about Aussie domestic issues, having been strangely mesmerised by the Trump train-wreck and other exotica. Australia seems boringly stable by comparison, though somewhat influenced by the conservative, isolationist turn taken by advanced and not-so-advanced nations elsewhere. Certainly our current conservative government has succeeded in maintaining power, much like governments elsewhere, by doing virtually nothing. No energy policy, no healthcare policy, no education policy, no attempt to deal with the long-term refugee situation offshore, no employment policy, and of course as little taxation as can be gotten away with. This is what they describe as 'responsible government' – don't do anything which will draw attention let alone criticism. The best governments should be invisible, not to say inert – for, as Reagan more or less said, government is always the problem, never the solution.
Which brings me to the subject of this post – employment, unemployment and Newstart, the interestingly named allowance given to jobseekers under Australia's welfare system. Our country's principal advocacy agency for the poor, the Australian Council of Social Service (ACOSS) has been campaigning for some time to 'raise the rate' of Newstart, which currently sits at around $39 a day, a figure which, it says, hasn't changed in 25 years. The question of raising the rate became a hot issue in the recent federal election, with Labor making noises about the poverty trap problem, but failing to commit to any changes. Only the sadly unelectable Greens had a policy, promising to almost double the rate to $75 a day. All of this amid claims that various policies and strategies are aimed at maintaining a pool of unemployed at a certain rate that's beneficial to the overall economy. Of course the cost of unemployment to government is related both to the amount paid and the number of unemployed. The unemployment rate is always a dodgy measure, as people can be employed part-time, or voluntarily, or simply doing questionably useful things like writing blogs… We don't look at the unemployment rate of birds, or sharks, but we can be sure there aren't too many of them wasting time tweeting inanities and cheating at golf…
It's also been pointed out regularly enough that, if unemployed people aren't contributing by making lovely foamy shapes on our daily lattes, or adding to the rate of diabetes and diet-induced heart conditions, they're at least contributing to the economy by spending their dole on whatever's needful for their survival. And if they were given a little more – as, say, advocates of a universal basic wage would have it – the flow-through would arguably be even more helpful.
Whatever the definition of 'unemployed' might be, it hasn't changed here for some time, so the rate can be reliably compared to previous months, years and decades. It currently sits at 5.2% and hasn't changed much over the past year or more, but it seems the underemployment rate is on the rise, and advertising for jobs is dropping. There's also been a gradual trend in rising unemployment and underemployment among older people, and this is a feature of particular interest to me. There are mutual obligation requirements for everyone on Newstart, though they're different for those between 55 and 59, and they change again for those 60 and over, though it's not easy to work out the details from Centrelink's website.
If you're registered with the Department of Human Services online portal, MyGov, you can find out what a person's commitments are for obtaining a Newstart allowance. For a start you have to agree to and sign a Job Plan, overseen by a service provider. For older clients, the person engaged in this supervision is often young enough to be their daughter – or grand-daughter if you're lucky/unlucky. As part of this Job Plan, you need to have looked for 20 or 30 jobs in the previous month to continue getting benefits, and to show proof of this to your provider. I believe the number is actually 20, though I know of one person over 60 who was asked to do 30 a month, and when he asked about voluntary work he was told that was all fine, but he still had to fulfil the obligation of applying or inquiring about 30 paid jobs per month. Possibly he was informed incorrectly, but it's an indication of the kind of thoughtless humiliation some older jobseekers are put through. The undervaluing of voluntary work is, of course, a common theme in modern post-industrial society. The current government, for example, in resisting any increase to the Newstart allowance, insists in interview after interview that Newstart should always be seen as a temporary payment, a bridge to paid employment – no matter the age of the recipient. It seems that talk of voluntary work as a value in this area is strictly forbidden.
Unemployment is often seen as primarily a youth problem, but an ACOSS report from September last year states that only 17% of Newstart and Youth Allowance recipients are under 25, while 43% are over 45, with that older percentile growing. Changing work practices and automisation are likely to exacerbate this trend. Government spokespeople, including ministers, continually argue that there is plenty of work available, as long as people are prepared to move, but this is hardly an appealing option for older people, whose social and family lives have become, over time, connected to a particular region. Politicians often spruik about a flexible, mobile workforce, but there's a clear clash between hyper-mobility and building and maintaining communities.
There is also the question of whether politicians are sincere in claiming that they want full employment – whether it has ever been a target to aim for. There is apparently a theory popular among economists that if the unemployment rate drops below about 5%, the lack of labour supply will give workers more bargaining power in terms of wages and conditions, to the 'detriment' of employers – the favoured sector of conservative governments. It's notable that the current federal government has recently started a new round of union-bashing. So it's quite plausible that these conservatives are playing a double game here – blaming the unemployed for their predicament while seeking to maintain a sufficient pool of unemployed to stifle wages growth. Wages have certainly been stagnant here for some time (especially for low wage earners – see the graph above), while CEO salaries continue on an upward spiral. It's worth noting, however, that the RBA is talking about the need for 'spare capacity' reduction in the marketplace, which would be assisted by a reduced unemployment rate. Such reduction would bring higher levels of growth to what is currently a sluggish market with a 1.3% inflation rate.
Meanwhile, there are many other issues with Newstart. DHS administrative data from two years ago revealed that some 25% of recipients had a significant disability. Most of these disabilities were physical but unsurprisingly depression, anxiety and hypertension were reported as common problems among the unemployed and underemployed. It's unlikely that many of these people could afford adequate treatment. Young people on the payment are struggling with rents and utilities while trying to live on part-time, unreliable jobs. Pay rates in vital but under-funded and under-respected jobs in aged care, for example, are inadequate – and often the work is too demanding as a full-time occupation. There appear to be problems with inadequate and poorly targeted training courses that young people – and some older people – are shunted into in order to meet their obligations. Then there's the problem with Centrelink's automated communications system – a cost-saving measure that's causing plenty of headaches for recipients. I won't go into detail here, but it's certainly getting harder to talk to real people if you're unemployed, with all the automated messages you're bombarded with – many of them providing misleading or incorrect information – being marked 'no reply'. It all adds to the humiliation of the experience, to the sense that you're not being dealt with as a real person. The estimated cost-saving to the government of this increased automation – some $2 billion – will help to make up for the revenue lost from tax cuts to the nation's highest earners. And so it goes…

Per gli sportivi, il campeggio prevede un programma di escursioni, passeggiate con accompagnatore e diversi percorsi in bicicletta. Il campeggio dispone di una piscina scoperta e una vasca per i più piccoli.
Non è sempre necessario cucinare, perché all'interno del campeggio ci sono ristorante con menù poche portate e ristorante con ampio menù presente. In campeggio è possibile acquistare pane fresco. Potete navigare su Internet, poiché c'è un punto wi-fi.
Ogni anno un ispettore visita il Campeggio La Viorna, controllando oltre 200 tra attrezzature e altri punti di interesse del campeggio. L'ispettore è un dipendente ACSI e non lavora per il campeggio.
Beautiful place placed at Picos de Europa. Just 20 min from Fuente Dé.
Camping has all facilities and cleanfull.
Good staff and friendly people.
The only thing missing is a beach. The rest is just perfect. Great view to Picos. You can tell how much dedication there is and attension to detail. Very friendly people and quit low prices for pitch, shop and Restaurant. Remarkable clean and practical facilities. Not even smelly toilets but wood essence from the nice traditional building. Great pool for little kids (0.5m). Nice walk to Potes or mountains apart from traffic.
A sink and toilet for kids would be great. A minus for having unsecured falling hazards for smaller kids in frequent places.
But finally: The best site we stayed this year out of of well over 20.
One review said this was the best camp-site in Spain. I haven't been to them all, but this is the best camp-site I have ever use in 55 years of camping. We stayed back on June and the scenery, service and facilities were all top class.
We think this is a fantastic campsite. Very clean and lovely hot showers. The site is well situated - a nice walk into Potes and the Picos mountains are brilliant. Extremely helpful owners and nice restaurant where we ate twice. We definitely hope to return.
The food is great and quite chip, there is a daily menu.
The facilities are spotlessly clean. The personal is friendly and speak English.
Lovely superbly run campsite in a beautiful location. Owners and staff are great. Spotlessly clean facilities.
Fantastic site and surrounding area with beautiful views of the Picos Mountains. Swimming pool was very cold. Excellent staff. Ideal for reasonably active people. A return visit is definitely planned. If you're towing a caravan and unsure of your towing capabilities then the road in and out of Potes is not for the faint hearted.
Brilliant site in glorious surroundings. Excellent and clean facilities with varying sizes of pitch. Staff are great, always available and helpful. The food in the restaurant could be a little more ambitious but you have the medieval town of Potes a short distance away with lots of eateries and bars. Many people return to this site, it's one of the best.
An extremely well organised and run campsite at the heart of the Picos de Europa. Terraced grass pitches, the site surrounded by stunning mountain scenery. We did not use the restaurant but it was very popular. The site about a mile from the historic, interesting town of Potes. Good walking area and an excellent teleferica (cableway) to Fuente Dé within 15 miles.

Estate Sales News wishes you all a happy Labor Day weekend. Whether you're heading to an estate sale, friends, or family please drive with care and arrive safely.
We want to share a photo of a happy buyer exiting an estate sale in Los Angeles from Again L.A. Estate Sales. You can find them on EstateSales.Net, EstateSales.org and Facebook. We visited with them last year at one of their fabulous sales in Los Angeles, CA.
Estate Sales News will be enjoying the Labor Day weekend and we'll be back on Tuesday, September 2nd.
If it's Friday, it's estate sales.
When retirement time comes many people on fixed incomes look for ways to save.
One way of saving is to shop at estate sales. There they can find linens, good second hand clothing (sometimes even new clothes never worn), and at many sales things like partially used cleansers, laundry products, paint and paint supplies. You might even find your next car.
Gifts for special occasions and holidays can also be found at good savings. Even gift wrap, ribbons and bows. Supplies like pens, scotch tape, pads of paper, paper clips etc. can also be found at estate sales.
Many people retired or not also shop for books on a variety of topics. Even sun glasses and readers can be found. So can computers, tablets, televisions, radios, DVRs along with a host of other electronics like irons, toasters, blenders, mixers, etc.
It's amazing how much can be saved by shopping at estate sales and for many individuals saving at an estate sale is a boost to their economic well being. Even if you aren't retired it is still a great way to save $$$ and help our planet.
Who Is Shopping At Estate Sales?
It's the Monday before the start of the Labor Day weekend and a good moment to talk about those buyers coming to estate sales.
If you have been looking on any social media websites or auction or sale sites there are a variety of shoppers.
The buyer who is looking for a particular item(s) to furnish their home or apartment (funiture, dishes, stemware, flatware, linens., etc.). Collectors are ever present at estate sales. Those that come looking for items for resale, and what a variety of markets there are. eBay, and Auctionzip ar just a sampling of the multitude of auctions sites for some. New websites like Lofty for items valued at over $500.00 (see their March 14th, 2014 article here on EstateSalesNews.com), Etsy a market place for not only crafters, but for those that sell vintage (Etsy considers anything 20 years or older to be vintage). Others are antique dealers and show dealers that sell in antique malls and participate in a variety of antique shows. There are also those that have second hand shops and consignment shops as well. There are those that shop estate sales for gold or silver to sell for smelting (jewelry, flatware, holloware) etc.
You can look at Pinterest.com to see many individuals who collect and like to share their collections through photos and also those that sell on Etsy.
The extreme growth that the estate sale industry has experienced in the last five years has opened the flood gates to a whole new audience and businesses.
As in any market place prices fluctuate with the economy, style demands, and location of the estate sale, but the following of buyers continues to grow.
With Labor Day only two weeks away, colleges are in session, many parts of the nation have their elementary and middle and high schools going and by September 3rd almost all students will be back in their classes.
Estate sales flourish in the autumn, especially after Labor Day and it is a great time to start shopping for those autumn and winter necessities. Dining room sets for Thanksgiving, table and home decorations for Halloween and the holidays, linens, china, stemware, and ornaments for the Christmas tree.
Estate liquidators look forward to the autumn with the return of the buying public from their summer vacations and the cooling temperatures.
Get your lists made, measurements taken, color choices decided on and your vehicle ready for a exciting and fun season of estate sale shopping.
Estate sales, saving you $$$ and helping to keep our planet green.
Estate Sales News is also refreshing our website for autumn too.

"I want to fly. Will you teach me?"
On this day (11 January) in 1935, celebrated aviator Amelia Earhart set yet another world record - for in the first flight of its kind; she departed Honolulu, Hawaii on a solo flight to North America. After traveling 2,400 miles in 18 hours, she safely landed at Oakland Airport, California.
An inspirational woman, Amelia was a real testament to hard-work, perseverance and determination. She challenged society's views, refusing to be pigeon-holed into the women's domestic sphere.
Instead she sought education, and looked to establish a career for herself in a predominantly masculine field. A true pioneer, she paved the way for female pilots, and for men and woman alike to follow their dreams.
Let's take a look at how Amelia came to make history:
Aged 23, Earhart visited an airfield where she experienced a ride that would change her life forever. Afterwards she recalled: "As soon as I left the ground, I knew I myself had to fly."
Amelia worked a variety of jobs, including as a truck driver and a photographer, in order to save the $1,000 she needed for flying lessons. She then immersed herself in learning to fly. She read everything she could find on flying, and spent much of her time at the airfield. Her commitment required her to accept the hard work and rudimentary conditions that accompanied aviation training.
All her hard-work paid off, and in 1928 she became the first woman to cross the Atlantic as a passenger on a trans-Atlantic flight. Though she received international fame, Earhart did not think she deserved it: "I was just baggage, like a sack of potatoes," she remarked.
This spurred Amelia on to complete the feat for herself and on 20 May,1932, she took off from Newfoundland, USA, and landed in Ireland nearly 15 hours later, becoming the first woman to fly solo across the Atlantic Ocean. She fought off many problems throughout the flight; mechanical failures, a leaky fuel tank, fatigue, thick cloud and icy temperatures. Without assistance, she relied on her own ability as a pilot, and her own skill in the extremely difficult navigation which the Atlantic demanded.
It was her drive and ambition which encouraged Amelia to succeed where others had failed. She had set herself a goal, confident in her own ability to achieve it, and she did. Her potential really was sky-high.
It is this same potential we strive to uncover within our Kumon students. We aim to instil passion and drive, like Amelia's, so our students become self-assured in their own ability, and have the confidence to go on to reach their own goals. The time and commitment required to work towards a goal, whilst challenging, will ultimately be worth its weight in gratification and pride upon completion.
With so many inspirational figures to look to as role models, let's all continue striving for our own goals. And for those of you currently studying with Kumon, figures like Amelia, and our past student successes, are great examples to help drive your own momentum through the programmes.
The merits of learning from mistakes as well as successes
Developing the ability to draw the positives from their successes and failures will help children on the path to becoming well rounded individuals.

In real estate, the most important factor is location, location, location! Your services are not quite as sensitive to the physical position of your technology, but location certainly can be a pivotal factor in optimizing your service design and service delivery. Ideally, location shouldn't matter; however, it does have an effect on customer experience. When technology services were simpler, location was largely irrelevant, but now the complexity of new services demands a strategy more in line with your BT agenda than your former IT agenda. The effects of regulatory, cost, risk, and performance factors will vary based on the physical location of your technology resources. Colocation providers, cloud service providers, and even traditional hosting services offer plenty of evolving options to help infrastructure and operations (I&O) professionals balance these factors to optimize service design and delivery.


DatingAdvice Forum | Is she still interested? 3 dates in 10 days..then cancelled twice!
Is she still interested? 3 dates in 10 days..then cancelled twice!
Things seemed like they were going well, but over the last 2.5 weeks it seems to have stalled.
The weekend previous to last we were meant to meet, but she cancelled last min saying she felt ill.
and a 'Star wars' light sabre toothbrush…which she liked and thought was nice.
Looking back at the WhatsApp messages I sent her I was asking her what she was doing a lot, which she didnt seem to mind but I felt I was being too full on so I stopped and just cut it down to setting dates.
I have tried to be flirty on texts etc but she doesnt respond to that..although she can be flirty in person.
I am being insecure but I have been checking her POF to see if she still uses it and her Instagram..I know this is stalkerish and I will stop!
The convo ended on text with me basically leaving the ball in her court 'give me a shout when you are free to meet another time'.
Another thing to add to this is she has to babysit her supervisors son on Thursdays!
My head is confused, should I message her again or leave it to her to message me? Help!
Honestly, it sounds to me like she might just be busy. I'd give it some time. Don't hit her up all the time either, but it wouldn't hurt to occasionally ask how she is, how her day was, what is stressing her out from work or whatever the reason she had a bad day was. Let her know you care enough to ask and be genuine about any concern that you show. If she continues to blow you off, you could be direct and straight up ask her if she still wants to continue dating or not. She needs to be respectful to you and not have you waiting for something that isn't going to happen, should that be the case. I wish you luck!
Thanks soniccats i appreciate your kind words! i think she really is busy as she told me she left her phone at home the other day…having studied myself I can remember the stress of having to get work done and not feeling like I had enough time to get it done.
I guess I am quite insecure and inexperienced in this area of my life, I recently lost my job as well and have started to feel unsettled..questioning the direction of where I am going in life. I guess I just want to spend time with her to enjoy myself and seek reassurance that she is into me…but reading this back I can see this is needy behavior! So I am focusing my efforts elsewhere on the areas of my life I need to address, such as career, personal wellbeing etc.
Its tough but I am going to give her some space, maybe text her over the weekend and see what she says.
Damn man, i feel for you. To be honest at times i just really don't understand women at all and i bet i speak for a lot of guys then. Your first post sounded very positive, something i can actually get slightly jaleous of because to be honest i haven't been too succesful with the dating game at all, for a long long time.
I really hope she gets back to you soon, because what you explained about losing your job and not really knowing what to do right now, i got you on that 100%. I've been there, hell i still am actually. Don't give up though and try to see the good things in life as well. There's nothing wrong with taking it a little easy and giving her time, but she should not expect that you'll wait a lifetime. Who knows what goes around in her head, but she should take your feelings into account as well. Hoping the best for you my friend, keep us posted.
Reply To: Is she still interested? 3 dates in 10 days..then cancelled twice!
Thanks Shinigami your kinds words mean a lot to me my friend.
Yes it has been a bit of a roller coaster of emotions, and I guess I have been latching onto her to make me feel happy at this time of insecurity. So I am going to switch my attention to other things now and focus on them like sport, career, work to keep me going and long term direction.
Thanks for the empathy about my job situation. I will give her space now and leave it now. She did actually text me back and told me not to worry and that she understood by what she meant by my last text.
I still worry that even if we do meet again she may friend zone me, but im just going to see what happens, everything has went well before and I cant force anything. I guess, looking back, that because we met up often in that initial period my hopes went up and I probably chased her too much.
The positives are that she said she will get back to me and she did try and make time for me last week, even when her work was mental.
Sounds like she is talking to someone else as well.


Absence seizures were formerly called "petit mal seizures".
There is a loss of consciousness for about 10 to 30 seconds during which the patient has generalized muscle twitching. Associated with this is a typical eye lid fluttering at a rate of about 3 flutters per second.
The muscle tone may or may not be lost. So, the child simply stops what he/she is doing, and after this pause where the above can be observed, continues with the prior activities as if nothing has happened. The child will not remember anything of the time during the absence seizure. These seizures happen often while the child is sitting and hyperventilation seems to bring them on. There is a genetic cause for these seizures and it is not surprising therefore that they occur in families.
Several medications are effective in treating absence seizures. Clonazepam (Rivotril, Clonapam), valproic acid ( brand names: Depakene, Deproic, Epival, Epiject,Alti-Valproic) and ethosuximide( brand name: Zarontin) are all effective in controlling these seizures. For absence seizures, which do not repond to these medications often acetazolamide (brand name: Diamox) is effective.

Darzi Bar and Kitchen Review: This restaurant in Connaught Place tries to be different, and succeeds
Darzi Bar and Kitchen in Connaught Place stands out from the regular restaurants in the Capital.
Dev Goswami
UPDATED: October 12, 2017 15:53 IST

Effort screams at you from all quarters when you step into Darzi Bar and Kitchen, a quaint diner spread over two floors on the outer circle of New Delhi's Connaught Place.
The restaurant, it seems, takes its name seriously and has taken great pains to bring alive its theme--a tailor shop. The walls are lined with the typical paraphernalia that you may come across in a darzi's dukaan, whether it is clothes hangers or sewing machines.

The decor is understated enough to keep you from questioning what you're doing inside a tailor shop when all you were looking for was a decent meal paired with a few refreshing drinks.

Moving on to the drinks, saying that the cocktails on the trial menu we sampled were masterpieces would be an understatement.
Perfectly mixed, the cocktails we tried were a testament to what playing with flavours and alcohol can get you when done right. A saffron-based gin drink stood out for its balance between the sweetness of the saffron and the harshness of the alcohol.
The drink that really blew us away, however, was a tiramisu-flavoured (yes!) vodka concoction that we really hope finds a place on Darzi's final bar menu. Much like the dessert it is inspired by, the drink hits in you in layers--first comes a hint of sweetness, followed by the touch of a coffee flavour and is capped off with a strong hit from the vodka.

With drinks this exciting, we enthusiastically turned to the food menu, which offers a wide range of the usual suspects you'd find at an Indo-Euoprean diner--the appetisers and small dishes are evenly divided between salads, pizzas and tandoor-based preparations while the mains focus more on classic Indian dishes.
The Secret Shorba is a Darzi special and has a reason to be--rich, creamy and delightfully seasoned, it is everything that you want in a soup, and does not disappoint. The Darzi Meat Salad--another in-house salad--too is recommended for its fresh cold cuts and tangy strawberry-mustard dressing. The nachos served alongside could have been done without, though. They did not add anything to the dish and did not complement any of the elements on the plate.

From the appetisers, we chose to focus on Darzi's Indian selection, trying their assorted tikkas and kebabs. Surprisingly, while the chicken, lamb and seafood dishes looked more tempting, it was the vegetarian selection that stood out.
The bar at Darzi Bar & Kitchen. Photo: Darzi Bar & Kitchen
All the paneer-based preparations were perfectly cooked and well flavoured. The Malai Soya Chaap deserves a special mention because Darzi's chefs manage to lend flavour and taste to what otherwise is a piece of food that shouldn't even exist--the soya chaap.
The non-vegetarian selection, on the other hand, was plain Jane. The flavours weren't new and the dishes were your standard preparations that you'd find at any half-decent Indian restaurant. Try them, but don't expect to go gaga over them.

Moving on to the mains, we had to limit ourselves to two dishes. The Darzi Mutton Curry, again, did not offer new flavours but was brilliantly made nonetheless. The perfectly cooked meat fell off the bone, melted in your mouth and was accompanied by a well-textured and well-spiced curry.
Also Read: This Delhi restaurant offers a feast fit for kings
The ISBT Makhni Maggi, a homage to the instant noodle preparations you will find on Delhi's streets, was just that - buttery and rich. The hearty dish, surprisingly, might just be the dish that you will most remember after a meal at Darzi.

For dessert, Darzi has just four options, one of which looks really interesting--a 1000-rupee "interactive" extravaganza that involves the chefs "painting" the dish on your table. We, sadly, weren't able to try that. We instead chose the Shahi Tukda Croquants, a cross between the international muffin and the Indian shahi tukda.
The dish's brilliant texture as well as the balance of sweetness won us over. While it looks rich, the dessert is surprisingly light on the palate and won't have you feeling unable to move at the end of your meal.

Overall, Darzi Bar and Kitchen is a place that tries to do something different--it has to if it really wants to stand out from the glut of restaurants, bars and diners that line Connaught Place. They more or less succeed in their endeavour, offering preparations that will take you by surprise and which you will take back with you in your memories.

Thank you very much for this time. There is a sense of cleanliness in the rooms and baths, and I am grateful to the wonderfulness of the correspondence from the female generals and other employees. And above all the taste of the food, the volume is a surprise. I was allowed to use the simmered type for breakfast, but it seemed that I was full of food, but I also ate the other dishes too delicious. I would like to see you again if there is an opportunity.
We stayed together for my husband's birthday celebration! It became the best trip! I felt it was completely tension full with a lot of fish unique to fishing boat fishermen town which appeared at the beginning of dinner. I thought that it would be nice if not possible to post not only the name explanation of the fish but also the fish. Outgoing cuisine I enjoyed it with my eyes and tongue from ingenuity to traditional dishes. It was a feast. Next time I would like to ask fish lovers who like it!
I used this with my husband. I was healed from the bottom of my heart, forgetting my usual busyness, in the scenery seen from the window of the room. How long did you enter the kotatsu for a number of years? This season, humidifier was thankfully thankfully used. Meals are perfect. I think that it is unavoidable that the outdoor bath was an impression different from what I saw in the picture, and the washroom of the inside bath is narrow. The correspondence of the people of the staff is polite and you want to repeat.
Enjoy dinner watching ships dock and leave the harbor. This spacious restaurant can seat up to 40 guests.
Dinner and breakfast will be served at this 2F location.
There is a fish tank next to the bath.
Watch fish and crabs slowly swim about as you relax.
This bath is like an aquarium. The types of fish and crab in the fish tank depends on the season.
The washing area is lined with tatami for minimal slipping. This is very safe for children.
Look out to the sunset from the top most floor. Experience the ultimate relaxation. You can book a free 50 minute session.
After 2:30pm, we will send pick up to Awa-Kominato station if you call us upon your arrival.


The school says the activities are designed to "increase the breadth and depth of the education"
A school has been accused of having double standards after organising a trip to Disneyland for pupils during term-time.
During the last week of the school year, the normal timetable has been suspended for Years 7, 8 and 9 for three days - from July 16 to 18.
The school states the activities are designed to "increase the breadth and depth of the education" and created "less formal" situations for staff and students to work together.
Students and staff will participate in a variety of activities that are not usually available during the normal college day, which next year will include the opportunity to go to Disneyland Paris.
But angry parent Trevor Munday told Devon Live it is a "ridiculous" case of double standards because parents would be refused permission if they asked to take their children on holiday to Disneyland, or anywhere else, during term-time.
In an open letter on a public Exmouth Community Facebook page, he shared the letter he has written to college prinicipal Andrew Davis and the board of governors.
Trevor said in the letter: "We had a ridiculous situation last year where we politely and respectfully asked for time out of school during activities week for my two children to go on holiday before the mad summer rush started which was denied, only to later discover that the school assumed my children would take the time off anyway and phoned me to see why my son was still signed up for activities?
"We are, of course, respectful parents who took the denied request as face value, apparently in our naivety.
"This year apparently a very expensive trip to Disneyland Paris is deemed a worthwhile part of my children's education and I'm sure along with cheaper options such as laser tag, Crealy Adventure Park, Thorpe Park, surfing, sailing or for those parents who cannot afford these things then board games at school.
"I'm pretty sure though if I were to request time off for them to see something far more educational, say Red Square in Moscow, the soon to be lost islands of the Maldives or the culturally and politically timely and poignant towns along the north west coast of Spain, that this request would be denied.
"The school hides behind the law that my child will do better if they don't miss any time at school, and even one day missed could be detrimental to their education.
"So I ask the school to justify activities week, and how an expensive 'holiday' to Disneyland Paris is in any way more beneficial to my child's education than any of the aforementioned destinations or the Roman ruins of Paphos where we took our children last year which was significantly more expensive thanks to the school denying my request for three days holiday during activities week.
"This ridiculous double standard has to end. This year I will no longer stand by and watch the school play the role of hypocrite when it comes to my children's education.
"I hold the school to a higher standard, one where I don't expect the school can do something that they specifically request parents not to do, namely take them on holiday during term time.
On the college's website it describes activities week as an opportunity to "increase the breadth and depth of the education the college offers and also to allow staff and students to work together in less formal situations".
Since September 2013, under guidance from the Department of Education, children can only be taken out of school during term time in "exceptional circumstances".
If they miss school during term time, parents face a £60 fine. That doubles to £120 if it is not paid within three weeks.
Those failing to pay face prosecution – and a fine of a maximum of £2,500 or up to three months in prison.
The controversial issue raised by Trevor has sparked a debate on Facebook.
Shaun Hutchings said: "It is unfair that parents are treated like criminals for this and handed fines, as well as parents that can't afford to take children on holiday abroad during school holidays due to the criminal prices you have to pay.
Fellow parent Jane George said: "I have two children at the school, both of who would love to go to Disney and Paris. Unfortunately for us we are a large family with nine children between us and I can't justify spending £900 for 2 of them to go on this trip.
And Laura Jayne added: "I see where you're coming from but actually I think your child going abroad with school teaches them independence and gives them confidence to travel without parents within the safety parameters of being protected by the school.
"Activity week gives your child the chance to experience different activities chosen by them which they wouldn't necessarily be able to do. I'm sure there is more to it than just having a 'jolly' but I'm no teacher.

New Web Portal Launched for Women's Rights and Laws
By Asma Sajid | Published Nov 25, 2022 | 3:41 pm
The Women Parliamentary Caucus (WPC) has developed a web portal to facilitate coordination between all provincial caucuses and to provide information on women's laws and their legislative roles.
The 'Women's Rights/Laws' portal was unveiled at the National Conference of Women's Parliamentary Caucus in Islamabad on Tuesday, which was hosted by the WPC under the Pakistan Institute of Parliament Serves (PIPS).

The web platform, according to a release, would link the women caucuses of all four provincial assemblies, as well as the Gilgit Baltistan and Azad Kashmir Assembly, and will give complete information on women-initiated and women-oriented laws and policies.
Addressing the gathering, National Assembly Speaker, Raja Pervez Ashraf, stated that women's empowerment was necessary for the country's growth.
While acknowledging the significance of women in the country's progress, the NA speaker declared that without the inclusion of women in law, economics, and politics, growth would continue to be an alien concept.
He went on to say that women had always worked relentlessly to bring about lasting improvements in the lives of their fellow women and that they had always played a critical role in establishing inter-provincial relations.

Whilst praising Shaheed Benazir Bhutto's determination, the speaker stated that she had been a beacon of indomitable women as the country's 11th and 13th Prime Minister.
He asserted that she was the first Muslim woman to lead a democratic government.
Likewise, the German Ambassador to Pakistan, Alfred Grannas, remarked that Germany endorses women's empowerment since their involvement and involvement in decision-making is critical for long-term sustainability and establishing peaceful communities.
Senator Sana Jamali praised the endeavors of the Speaker of the National Assembly and the WPC Secretary in facilitating communication between the Federal and Provincial Assemblies in promoting the significant role of women parliamentarians and working together to promote the upliftment of women across the country.

Members of a migrant caravan currently in Mexico clashed with residents in Tijuana last night after residents demanded that the migrants leave public spaces and report to shelters.
USA Today reports that Tijuana police were forced to separate groups of migrants and local residents, who were marching through city streets demanding police action.
Mexican authorities should have stopped them from entering their country in the first place instead of escorting them via motorcade.
This is only the advance group. They are waiting for the rest of the caravan to catch up with them before they make their next move. I think this is going to be a disaster. The open borders activists who organized this just didn't think through the problems that will occur when you get 10,000 people trying to all illegally enter the US at the same time.

De afkorting rRNA staat voor ribosomaal RNA, en is een speciaal RNA-molecuul dat belangrijk is voor de eiwitsynthese. Het rRNA-molecuul is een onderdeel van het ribosoom, en heeft als functie het katalyseren van de reactie die de eiwitketen verlengt.
Het feit dat het rRNA-molecuul zowel de eigenschappen van DNA heeft (informatie coderen, de mogelijkheid zichzelf te kopiëren) als van enzymen (namelijk het katalyseren van chemische reacties), maakt dat dit molecuul gezien wordt als een van de stappen in de evolutie van DNA. Het feit dat rRNA een enzymatische activiteit heeft, maakt het dan ook tot een ribozym.

GIFTED – I received PR Samples for the purposes of this post.
Lunch boxes, I don't mind admitting that I sometimes struggle with what to put in them. So I'm always on the look out for fun additions to the boys lunches and on most Friday's I try to add something new and different.
This week they've had Shaken Udder milkshakes added to their lunches. These handy little cartons of flavoured milk are popular with my boys, and are school lunch friendly. They have less than 5% sugar, and contain important things like B12 as well as being a great source of protein.
I like the fact that they don't need to be stored in the fridge, so I can just pop them into the fridge the night before we need them! I'm not sure about you but I do struggle with fridge space!
I've been a bit naughty and added a cake today too, normally it would have been a cheese stick but we've run out. So while the children are at school I'll be popping to the shop to stock up on lunch box bits. Including some more Shaken Udder milk for next Friday I think!

Dozens of supporters are planning to lie down across the road here in front of Ariel Sharon's northern Negev ranch early Sunday morning to stop him from driving to Jerusalem for the Cabinet meeting where he plans to resign.
Phone calls, gifts and entreaties from other friends and admirers are arriving by the hour.
''Arik, don't leave us!'' read one imploring note using Mr. Sharon's nickname. It was from the owner of a dairy conglomerate, and it arrived with a grand basket of cheeses.
But as the former general sees it, by resigning as Industry and Trade Minister he is not leaving; he is simply opening a new front. And the goal of this new campaign, he said in an interview, is to be Israel's next prime minister.
Mr. Sharon's fight to wrest control of the Israeli right from Prime Minister Yitzhak Shamir will start on Sunday afternoon, just a few hours after he formally submits his resignation. It promises further turmoil for Israel's confused and angry political scene.
Mr. Sharon said that as a minister he felt constrained from promoting his hard-line views. Mr. Shamir, on the other hand, says he has been unable to govern with Mr. Sharon continually sniping at him from the right.
But Mr. Sharon promised that released from Government service, he would mount an even more relentless attack on Mr. Shamir and his plan for Palestinian elections in the occupied territories.
He said he planned to open an office next week in Tel Aviv, hire a staff and campaign ceaselessly, attacking Mr. Shamir as weak and conciliatory.
Mr. Sharon said that if the United States believed that his resignation might help free Mr. Shamir's hand to negotiate, as the White House suggested last week, it was wrong.
''I will go from place to place, here and abroad,'' said the former military commander, the architect of Israel's invasion of Lebanon in 1982, who is now in his early 60's.
''I will give speeches, write articles, give interviews, all in a democratic way, in order to create a situation that will bring Mr. Shamir back to the principles he promised the Likud,'' he said.
As leader of Likud, Mr. Shamir undoubtedly holds the party's largest following. But Mr. Sharon holds a large block of votes that Likud cannot ignore - especially with the constant and deepening threat that the Labor-Likud coalition Government might fall.
The central theme in Mr. Sharon's platform seems to be the conviction that Israel needs to begin saying no firmly and unequivocally - no to what he sees as a weak-kneed approach to fighting the Palestinian uprising, no to elections in the occupied territories, no to talks of any sort with Palestinian Liberation Organization supporters in the West Bank, the Gaza Strip or abroad, and no to the idea that Israel should even consider Arab objections to anything it wants to do.
With those themes incessantly dogging him from the right, Mr. Shamir may find that he has little choice but to adopt some of them as his own, if he and his allies hope to keep their control of Likud. That would almost certainly damage Israel's already difficult relations with the United States.
Elyakim Rubenstein, the Cabinet secretary, called Mr. Sharon here at his ranch early Friday, just to be sure he was serious about his intention to resign, which he announced at a chaotic Likud meeting on Monday.
Mr. Sharon plans to go from the Cabinet meeting to a news conference to open his campaign.
To many people in the United States and most of the West, Mr. Shamir seems to be an unyielding ideologue. But as Mr. Sharon sees it, the Prime Minister is weak, indecisive and timid.
Mr. Shamir's proposal for elections in the territories will have no place in Mr. Sharon's plan. He has other ideas.

Huge rare earth deposits found in Pacific: Japan experts
TOKYO (Reuters) - Vast deposits of rare earth minerals, crucial in making high-tech electronics products, have been found on the floor of the Pacific Ocean and can be readily extracted, Japanese scientists said on Monday.
Marks made by an excavator is pictured at the old site of a rare earth metals mine on the outskirts of Longnan county, in Jiangxi Province October 27, 2010. REUTERS/Jason Lee
"The deposits have a heavy concentration of rare earths. Just one square kilometer (0.4 square mile) of deposits will be able to provide one-fifth of the current global annual consumption," said Yasuhiro Kato, an associate professor of earth science at the University of Tokyo.
The discovery was made by a team led by Kato and including researchers from the Japan Agency for Marine-Earth Science and Technology.
They found the minerals in sea mud extracted from depths of 3,500 to 6,000 meters (11,500-20,000 ft) below the ocean surface at 78 locations. One-third of the sites yielded rich contents of rare earths and the metal yttrium, Kato said in a telephone interview.
The deposits are in international waters in an area stretching east and west of Hawaii, as well as east of Tahiti in French Polynesia, he said.
He estimated rare earths contained in the deposits amounted to 80 to 100 billion metric tons, compared to global reserves currently confirmed by the U.S. Geological Survey of just 110 million tonnes that have been found mainly in China, Russia and other former Soviet countries, and the United States.
Details of the discovery were published on Monday in the online version of British journal Nature Geoscience.
The level of uranium and thorium -- radioactive ingredients that are usually contained in such deposits that can pose environmental hazards -- was found to be one-fifth of those in deposits on land, Kato said.
A chronic shortage of rare earths, vital for making a range of high-technology electronics, magnets and batteries, has encouraged mining projects for them in recent years.
China, which accounts for 97 percent of global rare earth supplies, has been tightening trade in the strategic metals, sparking an explosion in prices.
Japan, which accounts for a third of global demand, has been stung badly, and has been looking to diversify its supply sources, particularly of heavy rare earths such as dysprosium used in magnets.
Kato said the sea mud was especially rich in heavier rare earths such as gadolinium, lutetium, terbium and dysprosium.
"These are used to manufacture flat-screen TVs, LED (light-emitting diode) valves, and hybrid cars," he said.
Extracting the deposits requires pumping up material from the ocean floor. "Sea mud can be brought up to ships and we can extract rare earths right there using simple acid leaching," he said.
Factbox: Global reserves of rare earths
"Using diluted acid, the process is fast, and within a few hours we can extract 80-90 percent of rare earths from the mud."
The team found that sites close to Hawaii and Tahiti were especially rich in rare earths, he said.
He gave no estimate of when extraction of the materials from the seabed might start.
