September 2014 – Hero Hurrah!
One of the caring moms in my library recently asked for books about true heroes, not the kinds who wear undies on the outside! Her idea was so good that we should share it here!
The importance of children "experiencing" heroism cannot be overstated. They must sense not only its stirrings in their own hearts, but see that heroes are simply ones who did more than they first thought possible. A child can then know that God can empower him likewise!
A different woman once assured me that her sons needn't bother reading about anyone in the past. My heart ached for the boys. How will they ever taste the joy of heroism or so easily discover that they too can do brave and important things for others when needed?
Let's enjoy a first sampling of heroes—and heroines—in different spheres of life. Because you can easily find books in your local library about these folks, I will do something different this time. I will focus more on citing rare retro "living book" gems which you might not otherwise find. Perhaps you can seek these, if you wish, either through purchase (there are oodles of online sellers of older books) or borrow through interlibrary loan, an area homeschool library, local private or parochial school libraries (which tend to have more precious older collections), or even in the archives of a nearby college's Education Department's collection of children's lit. So, while scores of books could be cited, this seems like a special opportunity to highlight some of the lesser-known vintage gems. You can start building your own library (other homeschoolers would love to share your treasures) or you can simply find something else about these great heroes and heroines.
There are many more such folks than are listed here, so we'll make more trips through the wonderful "buffet line" in later months!
George Orwell said those words in 1946 in his work titled Why I Write. People read books today for a chance to look through that window pane, into the worlds of imagination and wonder and inspiration.
Homeschool students of all ages can also use books to look into the worlds of oceanography, meteorology, and chemistry. Or take a closer look at the lives of great composers, the science of music, and the spiritual lives of men and women throughout history. Let them share their stories of heroism and perseverance, faith and strength, daring and brilliance of the men, women, and children who fought and struggled to endure during World War II.
But with so many books to choose from, where does one begin? Truth Quest HIstory author Michelle Miller provides Reading List homeschool language arts units, including her top choices on a variety of themes, with a recommended reading level for each title. She shares her favorite authors, series, and books while exploring museums and zoos, photography and inventors, art and art history, and more!
Print each list to take to the nearest library or used book sale!
So, get busy and start exploring the world through the pages of a good book! Enjoy!

Whether you are considering selling your home, you will get a competitive home market, so that all you could do to be able to receive your home more inviting for buyers and find the absolute best for your business to do them. Decorating a house is hard work. There is a saying that it's more than just a house and that the decor is more than just furniture. Decorating a home or space is an incredibly exciting activity.
If you currently have decorations and do not need to replace them, you must decide on a color that compliments the current decor of the home. The decoration of the house has changed into a popular TV topic in the UK. A great decoration can give a totally new look to the house.
You have chosen to sell your house, and you can not wait to sell it fast! It would be wise to use a Columbia Sc home remodel. Decorating your home can also be expensive and time consuming. It is possible to call your family members to your house to party or you can book any pool party program may be the most appropriate choice on Christmas Eve.
The room does not observe direct sunlight, so the use of bright colors becomes an essential part of the design so that you do not get a dark and dirty space. If your room becomes exposed to direct sunlight all day long, your window decor is an excellent approach to creating a pop mood while allowing you to control the light. Applying a new decor to any room where you change the look can be expensive if you choose a room that is too big.

Pumas will start their Copa MX campaign with an away trip to Tampico, as they face Tampico Madero. Pumas will be coming off a better than normal Copa MX campaign, in which they went into the Quarterfinals but lost to eventual champion Necaxa. The loss at home was especially bad because they were at home and Necaxa went down a man but still managed to come out with the win. This tournament comes as a new opportunity for the Universitarios against a Tampico Madero team that will be missing their best player, Eduardo Aguirre, because of the Central Americana and Caribbean games.
Pumas hasn't had a good time in Copa MX. They have only been to the second round once, last season. They then moved to the Quarterfinals after beating Lobos BUAP. But the home loss to Necaxa brought the dream crashing down, although Pumas was able to bounce back in the Liga MX and qualify to the Liguilla before having another painful elimination at the hands of America. If the past is any indication, it's to be expected that they will go with an alternate squad to the one they will use in the league. Still, although it's a tough away game in Tampico, Pumas will benefit from them missing their best player in Eduardo Aguirre. There is also the fact that even with an alternative squad, Tampico is still an Ascenso MX team and Pumas should have a great opportunity to start the tournament in a positive note. If Pumas take the opportunity, they might build enough momentum to achieve a better run than last season's.
HOW TO WATCH, STREAM 2018 Copa MX
Date: Tuesday, July 24
Time: 7:00pm Pacific, 9:00pm Central, 10:00pm Eastern
Venue: Estadio Tamaulipas, Tampico, Mexico

Producers are looking for teams of five contestants who want to take on the Aztec, Medieval, Industrial and Future zones of the maze.
It was one of the most-loved TV shows of the '90s.
And now the Crystal Maze will return for a full length series later this year.
The new show will air on Channel 4 and be hosted by comedian and IT Crowd star Richard Ayoade.
The Crystal Maze originally ran from 1990 to 1995; it was hosted by Rocky Horror Show's Richard O'Brien for its first three years before Ed Tudor-Pole took over.
The physical, mental, skill and mystery challenges will all return and participants will gather crystals to give them time in the Crystal Dome at the end.
Each team of five will be required to have a sixth stand by player available, and closing date for applications is March, 1.
To apply visit their website .


"You cannot add more buses, or more people onto the buses, so you have to concentrate on getting people off the bus and onto the bikes."
A new city bike hire scheme is coming to Edinburgh, operated by Norwegian technology. Serco will introduce and operate the innovative cycle hire scheme, using software provided by the Oslo-based Urban Infrastructure Partner (UIP).
"We're providing both the backup systems for Serco to operate the scheme and the apps to unlock and lock the bikes," said Axel Bentsen, CEO of UIP in Oslo. This is the first time that UIP has won a contract outside Norway.
UIP has been running the Oslo bike scheme - providing the software and operating the bike scheme - in partnership with the City of Oslo for the last two years. Since then, bike usage has gone up by three times. Riders (not usually wearing lycra and often going to work) made 2.7m journeys in 2017. This compares with 9m taxi trips. In other words, a third of journeys in Oslo are now made by bike – and that's in a city where snow makes the roads unusable for the best part of at least four months a year.
One of the new Edinburgh scheme's features will be UIP's innovative cycle lock, which is being used for the first time in the U.K. This allows users not only to dock at physical stations but if the docking station is full, to lock and leave the bikes in designated, geo-fenced parking zones. In Trondheim, for instance, where UIP operates the city bike scheme, if surplus bikes are left at the train station in the docking stations in the evenings, they can be safely left in the geofenced area.
The technology is so smart, thanks to the built-in GPS, that the operator can immediately see when there are too many bikes piling up in one location and quickly redistribute them. It also makes it easy to locate those bikes that are due for planned maintenance, which helps to improve operating efficiency and cut costs. Serco and Transport for Edinburgh (TfE) said that this technology will enable Edinburgh's users can benefit from the flexibility of a dockless system, without compromising the city's streets.
"We've made a tech platform to track and share assets and their location and service history," says Bentsen, "and we make this available to share. Through crunching and collecting data, we are able to ensure that the scheme operates as efficiently as possible."
Dockless bike schemes come with a cost: bike dumping. Bentsen said that dock schemes work better in large cities, because of the dumping problem. He concedes a few bikes may end up in the Oslo fjord each year, but by using smart data, better technology, and decent bikes, the Norwegian and Edinburgh bike schemes should be less vulnerable to this than has been the case in Asia, where bikes are cheaper and regarded as more disposable. Furthermore, UIP's ability to geofence its bikes outside the docking station makes them far more secure.
Bentsen sees UIP less as a software company - although the app that UIP designed won it the 15-year tender to operate the city's bike scheme - but a logistics one. In time, he says, UIP's unique software platform can be rolled out and applied across a variety of logistical systems.
One benefit UIP has brought to Oslo is helping to get people off an already overcrowded bus transport system and onto rental bikes. "When we won the tender, Oslo needed people to stop making short journeys on the bus. Other cities have the same problem; all over the world, buses don't come and then they form a line," says Bentsen. "You cannot add more buses, or more people onto the buses, so you have to concentrate on getting people off the bus and onto the bikes."
What surprised UIP in Oslo is how short the average journey times have been - eight minutes on average on the weekdays, 13 minutes at the weekend. "It's those extra minutes people save when they are late for a meeting," Bentsen said. "If they can save four minutes when they are running eight minutes late, they will."
In Edinburgh, 500 manual cycles will be delivered, with 200 operational by the start of the university term this August, and 100 electric bikes. By April 2019, there will be 600 bikes in operation but Serco and TfE believe the scheme will grow incrementally, driven by user demand. "To make a bike scheme sustainable over time, you have to work with the city," says Bentsen. "If you don't team up with the city, to have the best locations for the bike docks, then a scheme can't work."
Serco will use bikes made by its partner on the TfL scheme in London, Pashley Cycles, the longest-established British cycle manufacturer. In Oslo, UIP uses sturdy Czech bikes and is equipping them all with strong kevlar chains.
In UIP's workshop across the main square from the central station in Oslo, CTO Johan Høgåsen-Hallesby explained to me that UIP believes the cheaper-bike model favored in Asia does not make as much business sense, because having bikes off the road because of unscheduled repairs reduces the efficiency of the fleet, and bike schemes are all about maximizing the fleet's efficiency. The most comparable schemes to Oslo City Bikes are Motivate in New York and Jump in Washington D.C. and San Francisco, he added.
In case you are a Scottish reader wondering whether a bike hire scheme used by fitness conscious Norwegians in the relatively flat environs of Oslo will work as well in Edinburgh on the way up the Mound or Calton Hill, well, here is some news. UIP recently carried out a three-week trial of its bikes in Bergen, whose steep hills and narrow streets make Edinburgh's Old Town look like East Anglia. The city transport authority was dubious as to whether people would really bike in Bergen - but the trial was so successful that the scheme will be introduced this summer, as well as in Trondheim where UIP has a 14-year contract.

QWSTION BioLight Collection: Sustainability Without Sacrifice
by David Vo, August 17, 2020
Ten years after their founding, the Zurich-based carry brand QWSTION achieved an important milestone in their quest to produce full life cycle sustainable products – the release of their Minimal Collection utilizing their breakthrough fabric, Bananatex. Now, less than two years later, they are back with their latest effort, the BioLight Collection. To me, it represents two things: the culmination of QWSTION's singular focus for the past decade and one of the most important carry releases this year. Allow me to explain.
If you take the time to think about how we typically discuss bags, there is very little consideration to sustainability or the full life cycle of the bag. The industrialized world operates on a very linear level; there's the production of the product, then at the end of life, it ends up in landfills. The term product life cycle gets thrown around but this is not a closed loop system in the slightest. The focus has always been the best performance, at the cheapest price. Let's break down each of the two components and consider thinking about them in a different way.
Thinking About Performance and Cost in a Different Way
When you speak about the performance or capabilities of a product or material, it's important to think about appropriateness. As Christian Paul Kaegi, co-founder and Creative Director at QWSTION, explained it doesn't make much sense to drive a large truck (for example) if you're just transporting yourself because you are using a 6,000 lb vehicle to move a 150 lb person. Taking that concept and applying it to bags:
"When you speak of sustainability it is absolutely crucial. It doesn't make sense to create a bag that can carry 600 pounds which Cordura basically can do. The strength to the materials is at a point where it has really high tear resistance and really high tensile strength but it's overshooting the goal."
Christian Paul Kaegi
If we are truly being honest with ourselves, how much bag do we need? When will we ever utilize the 2000 lb capacity of a Cobra buckle? How important is waterproofness if we live in an area with very little rainfall? How important is colorfastness? With such advancements in materials (particularly plastic-based), consumers are spoiled by the performance they are able to achieve. These abilities, which are often relegated to specification sheets for bragging rights, are rarely needed by most users. Shouldn't buying a bag that can do everything you need (plus a reasonable margin for extra breathing room) be sufficient?
Moving on, how much would such a bag cost? Unfortunately, due to the unfettered nylon and polyester industry, our expectations and ideals for cost are completely out of touch with the realities of a product's total cost. And by total cost, I mean the price that's paid for both the materials and production but also after the item is discarded. Currently, about 9% of plastics are recycled while 11% are incinerated, which releases CO2 into the environment. The rest end up in landfills where they stay for 30-400 years. The cost of climate change is paid by everyone but because it's harder to measure or see the effects of it on an individual basis, it's really hard to really understand what this cost is. Additionally, the effects of climate change are spread across all citizens on the planet, which acts to minimize the costs.
With those two things in mind, let's take a look at QWSTION's latest offering, the BioLight Collection. It consists of three bucket bags (in Mini, Small, and Medium sizes), each in three colorways – Heron, Raven, and Robin. While the Minimal Collection bags were the first to use Bananatex, their focus (as their namesake suggests) was on simplicity and minimalism. This means: minimal waste, minimal use of materials, and maximum sustainability. The Roll Pack, for example, is made from 30 parts, compared to the industry standard of over 100 pieces to make a pack. In contrast, the BioLight collection is focused on organic original materials and lightness.
Who It Suits
On a broad level, the BioLight collection is for someone who is concerned about the total life cycle of a product. The user is someone who is interested in how far organic/plant-based solutions have advanced and their performance. On a practical level, the collection with its three sizes is ideal for anyone carrying small to medium-sized loads to and from the office and school and for weekend trips exploring the city, or even evenings out on the town.
Who It Doesn't
The nature of the materials and construction means the BioLight collection is quite rugged and robust but it would not be ideal for the most extreme situations or conditions. It would not be ideal for situations where inclement weather was expected. It is not designed to be resistant against extremes whether that's rain, abrasion, puncturing, etc. It's perfectly performing what it's meant for – a bag you can carry with you daily.
The BioLight collection comes in three sizes (Mini, Small, Medium) but besides capacity differences, each one has a unique design as well. First, the common traits, which will be covered in other sections, have to do with the overall build and construction philosophy. They are broadly based around an organic cotton shell, Bananatex structure and straps, a simple drawstring enclosure, and flexible carry options.
The Mini Bucket is the smallest of the trio and holds 3L and weights 0.14 kg. There's a single large YKK zipper on the front with a key hook inside. The main compartment is a single cavity with drawcord closure. The bag is entirely recyclable due to the build and materials: cotton, Bananatex and lightweight aluminum.
The Small Bucket is the middle child, weighing a little less than half a kilogram but able to hold a respectable 18L. Here, you can see the trapezoidal shape that is unmistakable in the BioLight design language. Like the Mini, the single outside pocket features a key hook. But here, the extra volume allows for more features and flexibility. For example, an EVA-protective sleeve is included that can hold up to a 13″ MacBook Pro. It also has an additional small inside pocket. Lastly, the straps allow for multiple carry options: backpack, shopper, or shoulder bag. Swapping between the modes is seamless with a clever to carry handle that is slotted to allow for the backpack straps to pass through. Sliding this handle transforms the Small Bucket.
The largest bag of the bunch is actually named Medium Bucket. It's slightly larger with a 20L capacity and weighs exactly 0.5 kg. It's very similar to the Small Bucket except for two key differences: first, the sleeve holds a 16″ MacBook Pro and the design of the straps is unique. There are permanent tote straps that can be secured with a strap closure. This means that it's both in tote and backpack mode permanently.
Both the Small and Medium Bucket have an interesting draw closure that takes a quick demonstration to figure out but once you see it, it's simple to use. You need to grip the small QWSTION loop with your fingers and tug on the metal bar to close it. To open the bag, grab onto the loop again but this time pull it away while gripping the opposite side of the bag.
As mentioned earlier, QWSTION is all about distilling bags to their purest forms. That means for their Roll Pack the pattern consists of just 30 pieces instead of the over 100 required for a typical pack. That theme continues with the BioLight collection. The team worked closely with their production partners in Huizhou, China to produce simple forms that could be easily constructed.
What they ended up achieving is a build that is very simple but not lacking. The quality of the construction is stellar, with no frayed edge or stitch undone. The shapes and panels are quite simple but for the intended use case, there is no need for added complexity.
The Bananatex is really the glue that holds the BioLight bags together. As mentioned, it adds structure and strength and provides the handles and straps. The material is quite light for the strength it provides and is even doubled up at stress points.
The star here is of course the Bananatex fiber that QWSTION developed after several years of R&D, partnering with farmers and growers in the jungles of the Philippines. QWSTION actually started out the brand by developing their own organic cotton, which took a few years. Then they started investigating bamboo before they saw the potential of banana fibers. There are around 40 different types of banana plants and the one they chose is not used for the fruit because it's not very good to eat. Locals have been using the fibers to make ropes but QWSTION came in and figured out a way to develop a technical fiber from it.
The plants grow completely naturally and it turns out you can extract the fiber from the plant in its natural life cycle. It has a one-year growth phase until it bears fruit, then it naturally dies and then replenishes.
"A crucial difference versus cotton, you know, the cotton fibers can be manipulated in ways to make strong textiles, but it always comes with added weight and using a strong fiber as a starting point allowed us to ultimately create a lightweight strong material."
Despite being a monoculture crop, cotton still has advantages and makes up a large portion of the bags. The super-lightweight shell is made from Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS)-certified cotton with a natural wax coating for water resistance. The Bananatex pulls double duty forming the structure and backpack straps. All the metal hardware including the YKK zipper(s), buckles and key hook are made from aluminum which allows them to be recycled completely. The only aspect of the BioLight bags that cannot be recycled are the EVA-foam laptop pockets found in the Small and Medium Bucket. However, these are detachable and can be re-purposed as standalone sleeves or even a seat cushion.
With QWSTION's last major release, the Minimal Collection, the focus was minimal use of materials with maximum sustainability. They redesigned patterns from the ground up and instead of starting with the design, they started with the materials and figured out the best way to build a bag.
With BioLight, QWSTION took all their learnings (pattern creation and material use) and focused on lightness. The main aim is to combine lightness with organic origin materials. Traditionally if these were your end goals, you would not look at organic materials. Plastics dominate this field due to their incredible performance characteristics and low prices. With Bananatex, lending strength and structure, the brand is proving that it is possible to create a bag that meets the needs of most users but is also responsible.
When I listened to QWSTION's founder Christian speak about their journey to this point, I couldn't help but think about how much it mimicked other sustainability ventures – hybrid/electric vehicles, solar panels, rechargeable batteries. The tale starts the same way – a few companies try to offer an alternative that is better for the environment, less wasteful, and more sustainable. It gains traction slowly and only the most ardent supporters are willing to pay the price premium for admittedly less performance. But eventually with enough dedication and commitment, there's a tipping point. This is when the product is good enough, or even exceeds consumer requirements, and the price sacrifice is not nearly as high. I think this is the goal of all sustainable companies and their founders: when their customers are ordinary people who are willing to support the environment by making sound purchasing decisions and not those who would be considered rebels or risk-takers. QWSTION has accomplished this with Bananatex, their organic cotton, and the BioLight collection and with their plans to license and share the textile with other makers and brands, they will prove to be a major driving force behind conscious consumerism.

QP Optoelectronics Co. Ltd. has announced that it will be showcasing the LightPad product at the CES 2012 exhibition in Las Vegas.
The LightPadTM is an awesome piece of technology which extends the functionality and user interface of smartphones by providing the user with expanded utility via built-in 11 inch high contrast rear projection screen, up to 60 inch screen in front projection mode, and a full-size keyboard.
You can connect a smartphone with the LightPadTM which then provides virtually all functions of a notebook computer. This is done all thanks to a rebirth of rear projection using a pico-projector. The high gain and high contrast rear projection screen provides for a high quality display. Advantages of using a pico-projector for the display is power efficiency (over 500 nits for under 2.5 Watts), thin form factor and light weight.
Notebook sized displays are not sufficient for many applications including small group meetings where PowerPoint presentations are common. This device can produce up to 60 inch display in front projection mode with its super short focal length projection lens. It can be used as a big screen display/projector for meeting presentations, video/TV viewing, and big screen gaming. Connectivity to all smartphone platforms with HDMI or MHL output (iOS, Android, Win, Blackberry) are supported.

A production-standard Raven AESA radar is now installed on Gripen demonstration aircraft. Flight testing of the radar with the Skyward G IRST have been underway since March 2014. With the Raven ES-05 radar, Skyward-G and Mode 5 Identification Friend/Foe (IFF) systems Finmeccanica– Selex ES already provides about 30 percent of the next-generation Gripen's electronics.
Selex ES announced it has signs contract with Saab for the supply of 60 Skyward-G InfraRed Search and Track (IRST) Skyward for Saab's Gripen E. The new systems will equip the Swedish Air Force's Gripen E fleet. Saab is developing the new version for the Swedish Air Force. Skyward-G can silently detect threats, at beyond-visual range without relying on active (radar) emissions that could betray the aircraft's intentions and position to hostile forces. With the IRST a Gripen can detect and track enemy targets, including aircraft, naval vessels and ground vehicles. The system can also complement the radar by tracking the heat signatures of stealthy targets that are not visible or trackable by radar.

Our veterinarians at Peninsula Dog & Cat Clinic in Portland are dedicated to helping you prevent fleas & ticks on your pets and in your home. This is why we offer various types of flea and tick medications as well as tips for removing the pests from your home.
Fleas & ticks are more than annoying. They can cause serious illnesses in dogs and cats. Fleas carry tapeworm eggs, and they can cause flea dermatitis, which is an allergic reaction to flea saliva. In puppies, kittens and very small dogs and cats, a severe flea infestation can lead to anemia. Ticks carry a variety of illnesses, including Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever and Lyme Disease. Therefore, it is very important that you prevent these external parasites from making their homes on your pets.
There are numerous types of flea and tick treatments available for dogs and cats, including topical gels, sprays, pills and collars. Our Portland veterinarian can help you decide which treatment would be best for you and your pet. Just remember, if you have both dogs and cats to never put your dog's flea medication on your cat and vice versa.
External parasite control treatments for dogs include oral tablets, topical sprays and gels and flea collars. Depending on the type of medication you use, it will kill fleas and ticks and may kill or repel mosquito, biting flies and lice. Some medications will even prevent heartworm and roundworm infestations.
Different brands of external parasite medications contain different active ingredients, including Amitraz, Imidacloprid, Methoprene, Moxidectin, Nitenpyram ,Permethrin, Pyriproxyfen and Spinosad. Our vet can help you determine which medication would best benefit your dog. If your dog becomes pregnant, she may need a different preventative medication.
Flea and tick medications for cats include gels and sprays, tablets and flea collars. Most sprays and tablets are given once every one to two months. Flea collars can last as long as three months. Common active ingredients include Amitraz, Dinotefuran, Etofenprox, Fipronil, Lufenuron, Methoprene, Moxidectin and Pyriproxifen. Depending on the type of medication you choose, it will either kill or repel fleas and ticks, and it may kill ear mites and lice and repel mosquitoes.
Our Portland veterinarian can also give you some flea control tips while you are at our veterinary clinic. Some common tips include vacuuming the high-traffic areas of your home once a day and washing your pet's bedding once a week. If you have a current flea infestation in your home, our Portland vet can help you eliminate it with various pet-safe insecticides and home cleaning tips, including washing all your curtains and bedding.
To schedule an appointment for flea and tick preventative medications, call us at 503-285-7661.


With the birth of his baby just weeks away, Prince Harry is brushing up on his skills with kids.
The royal paid a solo visit to a YMCA in west London Wednesday, and even tried his leg at a ballet move in a class full of kids ranging in age from 4 to 6.
When the 34-year-old prince asked a tiny dancer what was his favorite part of class, an exuberant Emanuel Lester, age 5, replied the "ballet challenge."
Instructor Jade Groves led the class in a demonstration.
"Arms out, one leg up!" she cajoled her charges. All obeyed, including Harry. The tykes were also balancing discs on their little heads, with varying degrees of success.
Even the prince was a little shaky on one foot. "You wobbled!" one kid cried.
"Well done, you were fantastic," Harry told the children.
But it was the sight of a baby sitting on her mother's lap that drew Harry's undivided attention.
Naz Ahmad, wearing a pink flowered onesie, was enthralled by the charming prince. "Sleeping?" he asked the baby's mother. "Sometimes," the mom replied.
After Harry stuck out his tongue and pulled goofy faces, Naz rewarded him with an adorable grin. He reciprocated with a belly tickle.
"I love that face," he said.
Harry and wife Meghan Markle are expecting their first child in the coming weeks.
"I think he has babies on his mind," Naz's mom later said.
Did Prince Charles Tell Meghan Markle Not to Wear a Tiara in Fiji?

Add Facebook Subscribe Button To Instapage
The entire point of setting up a site is to participate with visitors. Engaging with your site's visitors well enables you to sell more products or increase your followers. Constructing great landing pages is a massive deal precisely of that. If you have an effective landing page, it will open up more opportunities for whatever you're putting on your website.
Back then, when making landing pages required that you start from scratch by writing your own code, site owners had to pay a hefty amount of cash. And often, the bill will not even include the actual look of the landing page. Now, however, as technology advanced and things got a little bit easier for regular folks, making landing pages has become something that everybody can do. One of the services that lets users create, manage, and maintain landing pages is Instapage, and this review will help you decide if it's the one for you.
Features: How Can Instapage Assist You? Add Facebook Subscribe Button To Instapage
Right after finalizing an Instapage account, users will be brought to the dashboard. Instapage's dashboard does not have the most striking visuals, but you can view the main things easily here. Links to every tool and feature you'll need for your landing page will be in the main menu which can be found on the left side of the page.
The more important features such as; AdMap, Landing Pages, Personalization, Experiments, and Analytics, are sure to be the first thing a person sees. On the bottom half are things like your inbox, admin area, settings menu, and an overview of your current projects.
Suppose you synced your Google Ads accounts with Instapage. Data from ads can be automatically imported and will reflect towards your PostClick score if you have enabled syncing. Simply put, the PostClick score allows users to compare the entire number of ads that they have and the complete number of personalized experiences. Add Facebook Subscribe Button To Instapage
Once calculated, the PostClick score is easily seen on the Instapage. The dashboard allows users to manage domain access. This means that they can easily give or take away access to domains. But to do this, the"Domains" page ought to be enabled first in the settings menu. The main settings area also shows a log of modifications done to the entire account. Actions including renaming or editing projects will be logged automatically.
Adding newly generated leads as well as new team members is also another feature that this page includes. This is easily the most essential page here, as this gives the Instapage Dashboard a switchboard functionality.
The security of everything, even if every setting can be accessed from it, is one thing that I enjoy about the Instapage Dashboard, You won't have to worry about sketchy third-party providers, as syncing with them will automatically direct users to an authorization page. This is an fantastic way of handling security, instead of entering an accounts API key such as other applications would require.
The actual Landing Page Editor is really easy to use because it is mostly just drag and drop. Users can start from scratch, or they can choose from the huge array of template choices. The templates on Instapage are also fully customizable, so users can build just what they want in the templates. I can confidently say that Instapage gives users the freedom to easily create the landing page of their dreams.
Even, by comparison, creating a landing page with Instapage is still outstandingly easy. Moving around editing elements of each template can be done by users as much as they want. This isn't the case for several other services where components can only be set among fixed, predetermined spots.
The way that the editor balances creative freedom and being user friendly is another thing that makes it great. Professional applications usually suffers from this, much like how novice drivers would find it more challenging to drive a manual transmission vehicle. Instapage assists users when they move around page elements by displaying markers and grids. This makes lining up things easy.
Users can also see the distance between the element being transferred from other neighboring elements. This is really helpful for making sure that an element looks nicely positioned with respect to its environment. Upon dropping an element to a new place, a crispy snapping cartoon occurs.
Although you're free to ignore this grid along with other indicators, it is wonderful to have some guidance when organizing the page elements.
While you're working in the webpage builder, you can preview your landing page at any point in a new browser tab by clicking on the preview button. However, the page builder has a WYSIWYG interface, so you won't need to preview your design often. It should look exactly how it does in the editor once it's posted.
Another great trick that Instapage has under its sleeves is your Instablocks feature. Instablocks lets users manage multiple landing pages which will save them so much time. A library of reusable groups of elements called "blocks" can basically be done in Instapage. Yes, it is just like having modular landing pages.
Users can create a block for any purpose that they want, say something that's intended for website visitors to leave comments and such. Once it's stored in the Instablocks library, then it may be included in any landing page that the user is editing. It really puts the instant in Instablocks.
What is even better is that there already are pre-installed blocks ready for use. They're all editable, so users can tailor them easily to fit their requirements. The blocks saved in the library can also be edited. Having changes mirrored across all landing pages containing the edited block is possible. But, this feature requires an upgrade to the more expensive Instapage Enterprise plan. Add Facebook Subscribe Button To Instapage
So that visitors can interact with your landing pages, adding widgets is vital. Instapage lets users place widgets in landing pages immediately. It will be ready to use with just a click on the widget's icon on the sidebar menu.
Once this task is done, it's quite simple to be able to put it anywhere on your website Users can also choose to edit the look and functionality of any widget. The changes to performance can range from changing targets to completely revamping the way the widget behaves.
Although the pre-installed widgets work well, other applications used for making landing pages edges out Instapage. Divi Builder, which can be used to make WordPress pages, feature more intricate widgets. But, Instapage widgets should be sufficient to cover the requirements. Here are some of them:
Adding readymade sliders, reviews, pricing tables, and a lot more things to your pages can be done with more contemporary WordPress page builder plugin, such as Beaver Builder or Thrive Content Builder.
With Instapage, you may make your own pricing tables or testimonial panels by blending the text, image, and headlines widgets, for example.
Still, it's not as convenient as having the ability to put in a ready-made purpose-built widget to your page. There are some pre-built pricing tables and other elements in the page template to help save you time. Having access to ready-made widgets that you can drag and drop onto your pages is still easier than the ones in Instapages.
Luckily, the Instablock feature mentioned earlier does give you a way to make an element, such as a pricing table or call-to-action. You may then save it for reuse on any page when needed.
The device and display size should not be a problem for an effective landing page to look good. Luckily, you won't have to worry about compatibility if you use Instapage. When making a landing page, users may switch to mobile view to see how the page would look like on a smartphone.
The Business plan for Instapage prices $199 a month, or $149 per month if paid annually. Choosing to pay on a yearly basis requires $1,788 upfront but will save you $600.
Conclusion Add Facebook Subscribe Button To Instapage
Instapage is a fantastic recommendation for beginners and even those with quite a bit of experience. The interface is intuitive, easy to navigate, and neat. The complete freedom in designing a landing page can be intimidating during your first few trials. Nonetheless, the program's assistive user interface attributes will set you on track. Although other apps can do better with regard to pre-installed widgets, Instapage allows room for building widgets.
A: There is no free plan, but Instapage offers a free trial for one week.
Q: Can I use third party applications analytics apps with Instapage?
A: Yes. Instapage integrates readily with analytics programs, as well as other blogging and marketing apps.
A: Yes. In actuality, there's a plugin specifically for WordPress to ease publishing better.
Q: How can Instapage handle customer support?
A: Instapage has a very responsive customer center. They may be contacted through live chat from Monday to Friday, 4 am and 3 pm PST.


We all love the story of the prince who is cursed to be a 'beast' until he learns to love. In this enchanting version, you'll find loads of female roles, starting with a poor widowed woman who plucks a forbidden rose from the Beast's property. Though he sentences the woman to death, Beast allows her to first say good-bye to her family. At the widow's farm, we meet her two distasteful daughters and greedy sons-in-law. The four of them hear her 'insane' story and don't believe her. But her third daughter, Beauty, goes to the Beast and promises to stay if her mother's life is spared. Of course, Beast falls in love with Beauty, but can he change enough for Beauty to ever love him? Read more...Unfortunately, the two sons-in-law slink into the eerie castle hoping to filch a treasure. In a hilarious and thrilling scene, not only is there a battle with the Beast, but also with the enchanted clock, chair, and masterpiece painting! One of Pioneer's top-selling children's musicals, your audience will be touched by both the script and the score, filled with nine dazzling musical numbers.

Japan was the last industrialized country to pass such laws. Among the political issues that interest woman are job discrimination laws and national labor laws that identify them as the "weaker" sex. Japan has been criticized by a United Nations panel for making only lukewarm efforts to implement anti-discrimination measures. Comic books often feature brutalized women. And the biggest problem is the gap in perspectiveJapanese men tend to or want to believe that women do not need such gestures, but in fact women do want and need them. Women are treated in this way because of the past.
Many women shoulder sacred shrines along with men at important festivals; girls play on boys teams in Little League baseball; and match their male coworkers beer for beer in after work drinking sessions.
The evolution of Japanese society has caused women to acclimatize to new customs and responsibilities. Both genders have the right to learn, and all students are taught subjects like Japanese, Mathematics, science, social studies, music, crafts, physical education and home economics.

Search - Gone in 60 Seconds [UMD for PSP] on UMD for PSP
UMD for PSP
Actors: Marion Busia, George Cole, Jerry Daugirda, Parnelli Jones, James McIntire
Director: H.B. Halicki
Kip Raines (Giovanni Ribisi) is a cocky young car thief working with a crew to steal 50 cars for a very bad man whose nickname is "The Carpenter." Being young and cocky, Kip messes up, so it's up to his big brother, Randal... more »l "Memphis" Raines (Nicolas Cage), to come out of car thief retirement and save him. With a cast that includes Robert Duvall, Angelina Jolie, Delroy Lindo, Cage, and Ribisi, it would be easy to say this story wastes all their talents--which it does, but that's not the point. This is a Jerry Bruckheimer film. A good story and complex characters would only get in the way of the action scenes and slow the movie down. No, Gone in 60 Seconds (based on the cult 1974 film of the same name) is not about the stars as much as it's about cars. Fast cars. Rare cars. Wrecked cars. All cars. Too bad director Dominic Sena (Kalifornia) doesn't come across as more of a gearhead; he seems less interested in fast cars than fast cuts. But is this movie fun? Absolutely, and it's fun because it's so stupid. With pointless car chases and hackneyed dialogue in one of the most predictable plots of the year, Gone in 60 Seconds is a comic film that's not quite a parody of itself, but darn close. --Andy Spletzer « less

Does Turkmenistan Have Globe's Greatest Gas Reserves?
"The total natural gas reserves of Turkmenistan are estimated at 50 trillion cubic meters."
Turkmenistan undoubtedly has huge reserves of natural gas. But there is not any proof to support Myrat Archaev's claim his country has 50 trillion cubic meters of gas. If that was true, it would mean Turkmenistan would have the largest gas reserves in the world, surpassing Qatar, Iran, and Russia.

Muscatatuck State Hospital and Training Center
Indiana Farm Colony for Feeble Minded, also known as Muscatatuck Colony, was opened in Butlerville, Jennings County, in 1920. It was originally a work farm and residential facility, which housed developmentally disabled men over the age of sixteen. In 1925, the Colony's administrative authority was transferred to the School for Feeble minded Youth at Fort Wayne. For this reason the mortality lists for the Colony were included in the Annual Reports of the Fort Wayne State School to the Governor. The Colony became the Muscatatuck State School in 1941 and began to accept women as residents. A decision was made to close the Muscatatuck State Developmental Center by the beginning of 2005 and have its grounds used for Homeland Security training.The current Homeland security Facility is called the Muscatatuck urban training center and is used to train first responders in a variatey of Natural and Man made disasters.

Several hundred patients were buried on the property throughout its years. 328 graves are marked and can be viewed here [1]

It is estimated that the annual runoff from a 92-foot by 200-foot barn roof near Springfield, Mo., will average about 470,000 gallons. If allowed to be polluted by manure, this nearly one-half million gallons of previously clean water must be disposed of on land without producing runoff.
Uncontaminated roof water can be discharged into the waters of the state or stored for farm use, such as watering livestock. Frequently, dairy barns present special problems due to their huge roof areas, which require large gutters and downspout capacity.
Positioning gutters to reduce snow and ice slide failures may be a major consideration. If the building eave-line has a 2- to 3-percent slope, as is common on gutter-flushed buildings, gutter capacity is increased compared to gutters mounted nearly level. Most gutters are mounted level for appearance, but a slope of 1/16 inch per foot is desirable for drainage.
An alternative to roof gutters for buildings with at least a 12-inch overhang and where an open channel will not be polluted is a surfaced channel or a stone-lined, tile-drained ditch alongside of the building. Also, an open channel could conduct water from a small gutter with multiple downspouts.
In typical construction, downspouts are spaced from 20 feet to 50 feet with a 60-foot maximum. The final routing of the roof water may determine whether a small gutter with many downspouts will be more feasible than a large gutter with few downspouts. House-sized gutters are readily available. But in many rural locations, specially formed gutters may be quite expensive. Gutter hangers are normally spaced 3 feet on center (o.c.), but 1.5 feet o.c. is recommended where ice and snow are long-lasting.
In an environment with broad temperature changes, the gutters need to move without being restrained by the hangers. An alternative is to build the gutter with shorter lengths, allowing a space between sections for expansion. Table 1 shows the thermal expansion/contraction of a 100-foot length of gutter with 100 degrees of temperature change.
This publication will work example problems to illustrate the use of roof gutters.
Design a gutter/downspout system for a 92-foot by 200-foot free-stall barn located near Boonville, Mo., with a 4:12 gable roof. Assume a level rectangular gutter with a depth to width ratio of 0.75.
On the 200-foot-long roof, assume four downspouts. Use the factor of 1.05 from Table 2 to adjust the roof plan-area for the 4:12 roof pitch.
1When the roof is sloped, neither the plan area nor the actual roof area should be used in sizing drainage.
Width of level rectangular gutters for given roof areas and rainfall intensities.
Use Figure 1 to find the width of gutter for 50-foot lengths of gutter. Use the rainfall intensity value of 7.2 inches per hour for Boonville from Figure 2 . For a segment of roof 46 feet wide by 50 feet long, the adjusted "IA" value will be: IA = 46 feet x 50 feet x 1.05 x 7.2 = 17,388. From Figure 1, for a depth/width ratio of 0.75, the required gutter width is 7.5 inches. Select a rectangular gutter 8 inches wide by 6 inches deep.
Map shows rainfall intensity in inches per hour for 5-minute periods to be expected once in 10 years. Normally, this is adequate for design, but storms have been twice as intense in some areas. See local records for more accurate data.
Assume the foundation, eave height and gutter for the free-stall barn are sloped at 2 percent for flushing the alleys. To determine the width of a rectangular gutter, see Table 3. Refer to Table 4 to determine the diameter of a semi-circular gutter to carry runoff from a 50-foot long portion of the building.
Depth of gutter = 0.75 x width.
Q = 1.486 x S 0.667) with n = 0.012 for smooth metal, smooth concrete or planed lumber and P = wetted perimeter in feet.
Q = 1.486 x S0.0667) with n = 0.010 and P = wetted perimeter in feet (flow depth = 50 percent of diameter).
*Roof area adjustment factor for 4:12 roof slopes.
Select a gutter with at least 0.40 cfs capacity at 2 percent slope. From Table 3, select a rectangular gutter 5 inches wide (depth = 0.75 times width = 3.75 inches). Select a semicircular gutter 6 inches in diameter (Table 4).
Select an adequate downspout to accommodate 0.40 cfs flow with 3.75-inch head from the rectangular gutter in Example 2.
In Table 5, we find that with a 3.75-inch head, a 6-inch diameter downspout will be required. Because the gutter is only 5 inches wide, a rectangular 5-inch by 6-inch transition may be used to connect the 6-inch round downspout to the 5-inch gutter.
Q = CA (2gh)0.5 where A = cross-sectional area of downspout in square feet and h = head in feet.
An alternative would be to increase the head above the 6-inch downspout by means of a drop box.
Downspout capacity can be increased by using a tapered transition to enlarge the downspout entrance in the bottom of the gutter, thus increasing the inlet area. Or you may add a dropbox at each downspout location to increase the head of water above the downspout entrance. See Table 5 for the capacity of various downspout diameter sizes at various heads.
A rule of thumb for sizing the tapered inlet or drop-box inlet is for the cross-sectional (horizontal) area to be at least 1.5 times the downspout cross-sectional area and the vertical drop from the gutter to the downspout entrance to be at least twice the downspout diameter.
Using the 0.40 cfs downspout capacity needed for the 50-foot sloped gutter in Example 2, determine the total head necessary to cause 0.40 cfs to enter a 4-inch diameter downspout.
From Table 5, by interpolation, we find that 11 inches of head will cause 0.40 cfs to enter the 4-inch downspout.
Clearance for snow and ice slides should be taken into account in positioning the gutters. In general, the flatter the roof pitch, the greater the clearance required. Use Figure 3 as a guide in positioning gutters for the snow and ice clearance.
Properly position gutters. Snow and ice can slide off the roof clear of the gutter. Steeper pitch roofs require less clearance.
Table 6 provides data for selecting sizes for various shapes of standard downspouts, based on cross-sectional area.
For small downspouts discharging water onto erosion-resistant surfaces, spreader/splash pans may be used (Figure 4).
Spreader/splash pan for discharging downspouts onto erosion-resistant surfaces.
Discharging large downspouts or conduits receiving water from several downspouts onto soil may require special treatment to prevent erosion or to eliminate a plunge pool.
Typically, discharges from large gutters may be routed via an underground or overland pipe to a stable channel or via a surface channel to a grass waterway or a rock-lined channel. Table 7 gives suggested permissible discharge velocities to use if more specific values are not available for bare and vegetated waterways. Table 8 contains data for flow in trapezoidal channels with recommended 4:1 side slopes.
1More erodible soils generally have a high content of fine sand or silt and lower plasticity. Typical soil textures are fine sand, silt, sandy loam and silty loam.
2Less erodible soils generally have a higher clay content and higher plasticity. Typical soil textures are silty clay, sandy clay and clay.
4Must have good quality vegetation on these slopes.
Manning's formula for an open channel: V = (1.49/n) R0.5 where V = velocity in fps. R = the hydraulic radius in feet and s = the hydraulic gradient in feet per foot. In this table, velocity = 2 feet per second for non-vegetative, uncultivated waterways (n = 0.022) and velocities for vegetated waterways = 3, 4 and 5 feet per second (n = 0.04).
1Slope in percent/velocity in feet per second.
Some means of spreading the discharging water uniformly over a wide vegetated waterway is required. A suggested method is to use a gated discharge pipe in a concrete basin across the width of the flat bottom of a trapezoidal waterway (Figure 5). Data for selected gated discharge pipes are tabulated in Table 9.
Schematic drawing of gated pipe in a concrete distribution basin discharging into a trapezoidal waterway.
Other types of energy-dissipating structures are shown in Soil and Water Conservation Engineering (References). One alternative is discharging water into a bed of large rocks to dissipate the energy and spread the flow.
For more information on the design of grassy waterways, consult your local Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) office or your local MU Extension agricultural engineering specialist (you may get that person's name at your local MU Extension center).
Select the bottom width for a trapezoidal waterway on an 8-percent slope with a good stand of fescue. Table 7 shows the allowable waterway velocity is 3.5 feet per second. From Table 8, we see that a 4-foot-wide waterway will carry 2.6 cfs on an 8-percent slope at a velocity of 3 feet per second and 6 cfs at 4 feet per second on an 8-percent slope. By straight-line interpolation, the capacity of a 4-foot waterway at 3.5 feet per second would be a 4.3 cfs, adequate for the 3.22 cfs roof runoff. Note that the bottom width of a trapezoidal waterway channel may be chosen based on the width of equipment used for construction or for mowing and removing the grass instead of the minimum width necessary to achieve a non-erodible velocity.
Use Table 9 to select a distribution system with a 4-foot width and capacity of 3.22 cfs. A 4-foot distribution system with 5-inch diameter pipe, 12 holes that are 2 inches in diameter and 5.2 feet of head will result in a 3.2 cfs flow rate — just adequate for the maximum flow.
1Pipe diameter is based on distribution pipe being center-fed. If pipe is end-fed, pipe size will need to be increased substantially.
If the slope from the barn to the distribution pipe is also 8 percent, from Table 10 we find that a 4-inch PVC pipe will be adequate for conveying the 3.22 cfs flow from the barn to the gated distribution pipe. However, to have a residual head of at least 5.2 feet at a gated distribution pipe (as opposed to an open discharge pipe, as in Table 10), the pressure drop through the conduit from the barn should be investigated and the conduit should be sized to provide adequate pressure at the distribution point.
Manning's formula for open channel flow: Q = 1.486 x S0.667) with n = 0.010 and P = wetted perimeter in feet (flow depth = 70 percent of diameter).
For more information on the design of gated-pipe systems, consult your local NRCS area engineer or your MU Extension regional agricultural engineering specialist. You may get that person's name from your local NRCS office or local MU Extension center). The engineers have a computer program available for design of gated-pipe systems.
Downspouts can be discharged into a pipe suspended on the side of the building at some design slope, laid on the ground alongside the building or buried underground at the design slope. Use Table 10 to select the pipe size based on the required capacity and the pipe slope. The capacities are based on water flowing in the pipe at a depth equal to 70 percent of the inside pipe diameter.

WPU takes down #8 Central Methodist in OT
WILLIAM PENN ATHLETICS DEPARTMENT
Fayette, Mo.—The Statesmen women's basketball team notched a signature win on the road Wednesday as it rallied to upset #8 Central Methodist 62-60 in overtime in a Heart of America Athletic Conference battle.
William Penn (12-4, 8-3 Heart) collected huge shots from Olivia Usher (Sr., Cedar Rapids, Iowa, Mathematics) and Brenda Pennington (Sr., Hammond, Ind., Psychology) and survived some nail-biting moments down the stretch to drop the Eagles (15-2, 9-2 Heart) for the third-consecutive time. CMU had entered Wednesday in a tie for the league lead, but now trails Grand View by one game. The navy and gold sit in a three-way tie for third, two games back of GVU.
The instant classic featured five ties and 13 lead changes, but the hosts looked like they were going to run away with it early, claiming an 8-2 advantage just three minutes into the evening. WPU responded and kept it close, trailing just 12-9 after one period and 27-20 at halftime.
The deficit grew to nine points before the Statesmen scored eight unanswered. The visitors continued to apply pressure, eventually going on top for the first time at 36-35 before relinquishing the edge seconds later to trail 38-36 entering the fourth quarter.
Central Methodist again appeared to put the game out of reach, tallying eight straight as part of a 10-0 run, but William Penn refused to quit and answered with an 11-0 run of its own for a 47-46 edge with 3:34 to go in regulation. The final minutes were a back-and-forth affair with Usher seemingly giving the visiting crew the lead for good at 54-53 on a leaner with 3.6 seconds remaining. The senior ended the night with 15 points.
CMU took a timeout to move the ball to the frontcourt and Lanay Rodney then drove the baseline. She was fouled by Pennington with 1.6 ticks left and had two free throws to either tie or possibly win the matchup. She fortunately missed the first try, but hit the second. The sides were looking down the barrel of an extra session, but WPU turned the ball over in the backcourt, allowing the Eagles a last-gasp effort. The buzzer-beater came up short, though, and overtime was indeed forced.
The 'fifth' period included two more ties and four more lead changes. William Penn was up 59-58 in the waning seconds, but left the door wide open for the home squad as Veronica Preciado was fouled on a three-point shot. What followed was par for the course for the Eagles as she fortunately missed the first two throws, but made the third to tie the game. Overall, Central Methodist was just 8-for-18 at the charity stripe, including 4-for-11 in the second half and overtime combined.
The navy and gold then called timeout to advance the ball and Pennington, for the second time this winter (sent game to OT against Evangel on December 7), called her own number for the heroics. She took the inbounds pass with 5.8 seconds on the clock, but was immediately trapped in the corner. Someone, the senior managed to gain a little separation and her deep heave found nothing but net as the eventual game-winner made it 62-59 in favor for WPU. Pennington tied for the game lead with 18 points on 6-for-9 shooting (2-for-4 3-PT).
With 1.6 seconds still remaining, the Eagles again were left with one final opportunity. They did not get a chance for a field-goal try, but instead even more insanity was brought into the contest as a collision occurred at midcourt, leading to two free throws for CMU. Mercedes Jefflo was successful on the first shot and then, with only 1.0 seconds left, purposely missed the second. The ball bounced around, but no one could corral it as time expired and William Penn escaped fairly anti-climactically with the road 'W'.
Neither side found much success shooting the ball as WPU was on the bottom side, 36.5%-32.8%. The Statesmen were stronger, though, from behind the arc (30.0%-18.8%) and at the line (WPU was at 76.5%).
The victors also took advantage of an impressive 51-37 rebounding edge (18-13 offensive), which translated into an 18-7 mark in second-chance points.
Despite a rough go in the ball control department (24 turnovers to 16 for CMU), William Penn was only outscored 20-16 in points off turnovers.
Makenzie Pezley (Sr., Keokuk, Iowa, Elementary Education) entered the game as the NAIA Division I's leader in three-point percentage and did not slow down Wednesday. The senior narrowly missed double figures off the bench, hitting a team-high three three-pointers (five attempts) for nine points.
Kate Ylitalo (Sr., Maple Plain, Minn., Biology) was next with eight points, while also playing a huge role on the boards with a game and career-high 13 rebounds.
Autumn Voigt (Sr., Clintonville, Wis., Business Management) added five points and two blocks, while Pennington recorded six assists and Usher stole two passes.
"This was a big win for our ladies, beating a very talented and well-coached team on the road," Head Coach Steve Williamson said. "Our players fought hard and grinded out a win. Brenda Pennington was of course clutch with that late shot, but we had so many players make huge plays on offense and defense all night that led us to this victory."
Next Up: William Penn travels to Cedar Rapids Saturday to face Mount Mercy in Heart action at 2 p.m.

The cryptocurrency market is flooded with new projects everyday. Projects that promise to further the current capability and potential of the existing blockchain. These projects, apart from being advancements in the technology, they are also investment options. The better the project does, the better the investment does.
Two such projects that deal with blockchain protocol are Edenchain and EOS. in this article we will discuss both projects separately, evaluate their features and stress points and then finally compare them with each other.
Edenchain is a permissioned blockchain protocol that deals with increasing blockchain capability. Edenchain focuses on real-world use-cases of the blockchain and furthers its capabilities with them in mind.
Scalability is a problem that all versions of the blockchain face. For blockchain to be able to take up the workload that it is expected to in the event of the world going decentralised scalability is something that needs to be worked on.
The current market is not even at half the traffic and is already fraying under the trade volume. Edenchain's solution to this particular problem is to take the transactions and make their computing parallel. Using namespace technology, Edenchain aims to take transactions and allow them to grow linearly. Which in turn increases the scalability of the blockchain through the Edenchain protocol.
Another major problem that is faced by blockchains in the current market is that they are all separate chains working in isolation. There is no medium that allows these chains to work with each other nor is it easy for chains to communicate with the currently available technology.
To tack this particular problem Edenchain's solution is to harness the power of the smart contracts and make it easier and more secure for individual chains to interact with other chains and external data modules.
The cryptocurrency market and the blockchain industry are a very niche space at the moment. It requires immensely sound technical knowledge to understand and high technical skills to implement. It is not easy for businesses that are not tech centric to adopt the technology without shelling out money.
To tackle this monopoly that the technically sound have over the blockchain industry, Edenchain is making their platform and protocol very user friendly. They are also using RESTful API to make it easy for businesses to integrate their existing systems with the blockchain.
The platform and protocol have a specific native token that will be used on it. The token is called EDN. EDN's current value is $0.037 USD. Edenchain is a South Korean startup. Its founder and current CEO is James Ahn.
EOS is a blockchain platform and protocol that developers can choose to use for their decentralised applications. The EOS platform's native cryptocurrency is called EOS. the aim of EOS is to build a blockchain platform that runs on a protocol that readies both application and platform for the future.
Scalability is a problem that both the protocols have in common. They both are trying to increase the scalability of the blockchain which currently runs about one tenth the required transaction rate for it to take over the current financial industry's load.
EOS plans to do this by making its protocol differentiate between authentication and processing. Another important feature that the EOS platform has included into making the platform and protocol more scalable is inter chain communication.
To increase flexibility in blockchain based systems and applications, EOS intends to implement general role based permissions. Another interesting feature that EOS is including to increase flexibility is the automated fixing or freezing of applications that aren't performing as expected.
Usability is an issue with all things blockchain because it is not the most intuitive or easy to learn. To tackle this particular problem, EOS has implemented a user interface that is easy to understand without having to know how the platform works and has also instituted buttons and features that are self-describing in nature.
Thereby making the platform easy to use and makes it more accessible to people in the industry.
Overall both projects are well equipped to achieve what they have set out for themselves. The only major difference here is the consensus algorithm that they have respectively chosen. Other than these minor technical differences between the projects, the end goal of both projects are the same. They both want to further the capabilities of the blockchain and make it more scalable, accessible and usable.
The deciding factor, however, between these two projects are the people involved. The company's team and the community that will eventually use the platform and protocol.
Edenchain is a relatively very fresh project, unlocked their tokens yesterday and currently trading at 0.04$ on IDEX and other two markets. We can expect a good growth in the value of eden coin in near future.

Clinical trials for coronavirus vaccine progress
Katherine Shagoury

As the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) continues to spread across the world, scientists and researchers are working tirelessly to develop a vaccine. There are currently nearly 50 vaccine programs underway worldwide, according to the Milken Institute based in Santa Monica, California.
However, only three vaccine candidates have entered the Phase I of clinical trials, the first of three stages of human testing before approval.
Before reaching Phase I, a drug or vaccine is tested in non-human subjects to gather efficacy, toxicity, and pharmacokinetic information. Phase I testing determines drug safety using healthy volunteers. Phase II and Phase III test the drug on patients to assess efficacy and side effects and efficacy, effectiveness, and safety, respectively. From there, an approved drug or vaccine is monitored while in use in the general public.
The three vaccines entering Phase I testing include:
Ad5-nCoV developed by the Beijing Institute of Biotech and CanSino Biologics
mRNA-1273 developed by Moderna Therapeutics
ChAdOx1 developed by the University of Oxford
Other vaccines still in preclinical stages include:
BNT162 developed by Pfizer and BioNTech
INO-4800 developed by Inovio Pharmaceuticals
Unnamed DNA vaccine developed by Sanofi Pasteur
A nationwide trial is also underway to see if the drug hydroxychloroquine can prevent the disease in people exposed to COVID-19. The trials, which have been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, are being run by David Boulware, MD, MPH, an infectious disease scientist at the University of Minnesota. The trial was first posted on the U.S. National Library of Medicine website on March 16, and currently has over 550 healthy volunteers, with an aim to recruit 1,500.

Little, who enters the meet ranked first in the NCAA and fifth in the U.S., boasts a remarkable record of success in Eugene. In 2014, Little won her first NCAA title here in a personal-best and school-record time of 55.07 seconds. Since then, Little has racked up Hayward Field victories at the 2014 IAAF World Junior Championships, the 2015 NCAA Championships, and the 2015 USATF Outdoor Championships — all en route to winning a silver medal at the IAAF World Championships in Beijing last summer.
If Little can fend off a deep list of challengers this week, including Jaide Stepter (USC), Sage Watson (Arizona), Kiah Seymour (Kentucky), Autumne Franklin (Harvard) and Chanice Chase (LSU) among others, she'll claim her third straight NCAA title and enter the U.S. Olympic Team Trials – Track & Field, July 1-10, with a perfect record at Hayward Field.
But will the road through Eugene lead Little to Rio?
With her sterling credentials and signature hair bow, Little might be the most high-profile Olympic hopeful competing this week. But here are four other women who could also make a splash at this summer's Trials in Eugene.
After two consecutive runner-up finishes in the 100-meter dash, Texas senior Morolake Akinosum will try to break through this week for her first individual NCAA title. Akinosum's wind-aided time of 10.97 is currently the fifth-fastest all-conditions mark in the U.S. — and the best in the NCAA.
Akinosum's top challenger this week is likely to be Oregon sophomore Hannah Cunliffe, who ran a wind-legal time of 10.99 at the Mt. SAC Relays in April. Both Akinosum and Cunliffe have qualified to compete at the Olympic Trials in July, along with former UO stars and NCAA 100-meter champs Jenna Prandini and English Gardner.
Perhaps no athlete will be as heavily favored this week as Texas senior Courtney Okolo, the 2014 NCAA 400-meter champion and 10-time NCAA All-American.
A year after missing the 2015 NCAA Championships due to injury, Okolo has returned with a vengeance in 2016, breaking her own collegiate record with a U.S.-leading performance of 49.71 seconds, which currently ranks as the second-fastest time in the world. Okolo's closest competitor at the NCAA meet, Arkansas senior Taylor Ellis-Watson, has run the one-lapper in 50.78.
Courtney Frerichs, the 2015 NCAA steeplechase runner-up for the University of Missouri – Kansas City, will be wearing a different-colored uniform on the track this week. By Saturday, Frerichs hopes she'll also be sporting a different-colored medal.
Since transferring last summer to the University of New Mexico, Frerichs has made herself a clear favorite to replace last year's winner, Colleen Quigley, atop the podium. Her season-best performance of 9:29.31, set at the Payton Jordan Invitational last month, is the third-fastest time in the U.S. this year — and the fastest in the NCAA by nearly 18 seconds.
With a stiff breeze at her back at last month's SEC Championships, Georgia sophomore Keturah Orji leapt to a personal-best mark of 47 feet, 10 ¾ inches — the longest all-conditions jump in the U.S. this year. Last week, Orji proved she doesn't need the wind.
Competing at the NCAA East Preliminary Round in Florida, Orji jumped to a wind-legal collegiate record of 46-10 ¾, putting her officially atop the U.S. rankings. This week, Orji will be challenged by Vanderbilt senior Simone Charley – who has the second-best mark among collegians at 45-1/2 – plus Nebraska junior Tierra Williams, Penn State junior Dannielle Gibson and Auburn junior Marshay Ryan.
