Breguet in the Heart of Europe: Waterloo 1815-2015
19 May 2015 - Restorations
In 2015, Breguet marked its presence at the bicentenary of the Battle of Waterloo as a major private sponsor of the conservation of Hougoumont Farm. One of the last authentic testimonies to the battle, Hougoumont seeks to work toward peace and stability in Europe. This building is of particular importance for Breguet due to the relationship between the House and the battle's many legendary figures. Loyal customers of Breguet are indeed to be found in both France's side of the battle, as well as the Allies' camp. The most famous among them are of course the Emperor Napoleon and the Duke of Wellington. With the patronage of the project Hougoumont, Montres Breguet underlines its links with its own history as well as with the history of Europe. This partnership joins the global strategy that the House has actively maintained since 2005 in the domain of cultural patronage in order to protect important world heritage institutions.

Gymnastic Wonders or Just Plain Carelessness?
Region: Eastern Asia
On November 4, 2020, the South Korean military deployed near the border with the North was put on high alert and sent to search for an unidentified person detected by technical controls. For the search operations, troops were placed on the "Jindogae" alert, which is issued to cope with a possible intrusion of armed guerrillas from North Korea. According to the Joint Chiefs of Staff of the ROK Armed Forces, a North Korean citizen may have crossed the border into Gangwon Province's Goseong County late in the evening of the previous day.
About 10 hours after the recorded border crossing, a refugee from the DPRK in civilian clothes was detained. It was noted that "no unusual activity on the part of the North Korean military was detected," and the North side was apparently unaware of the fact of the escape.
Little is known about the identity of the fugitive, only that he is in his 20s, a civilian, and at the time of his arrest he expressed his desire to remain in the South. This is not unusual – as a rule, the defector is interrogated for about a month to find out who he is and whether he is a spy from the North.
It was later revealed that the defector was first caught on surveillance cameras twice near the Military Demarcation Line.
A question was raised immediately as to why the siren used for the barricades did not go off during the climb, and it was not until the next day, November 5, that the military began to check the security systems on the inter-Korean border.
It is not yet known how the inspection ended or whether anyone was punished, but the November 24 issue of the Chosun Ilbo newspaper reported that the defector was a former gymnast who was able to overcome a barbed-wire fence three meters high thanks to his skills. And on November 26, Yonhap reported that the reason the border security sensor could not detect a North Korean jumping over fences was a loose screw inside the sensor control system. Apparently, due to external factors, such as strong wind or rain.
As a result, in spite of articles in the media, Defense Minister Seo Wook stated that he does not consider the incident to be yet another failure in border security efforts, although there are some aspects of it that need further development.
This is not the first time the border has been locked with a rusty latch. In July 2020, a North Korean defector charged with sexual assault fled across the western side of the border to his communist homeland. The South Korean military was left in the dark until North Korea reported the incident.
The maritime borders are at a similar level of "inviolability". On May 24, 2020, a small boat used by illegal immigrants from China was found on the beach in the city of Taean. It was only after a local resident called the police about the boat after seeing it left untouched for several days that it finally got their attention. It was then discovered that the boat did not have a registered serial number and had an engine that is not used in South Korea, and security camera footage showed people leaving the boat and getting into a van waiting for them.
After some time the illegals were found and eventually caught. However, the Coast Guard's explanation of "we knew immediately that they were illegals and therefore took our time" made us wonder: what if they had been saboteurs from the DPRK? The amazement escalated when it turned out that military radars, coastal CCTV and other surveillance equipment detected the boat SIX times, but the soldiers in charge of monitoring failed to detect it, and the Coast Guard did not spot it until the Chinese reached shore and fled.
According to a military spokesman, it was believed that it was a common boat used by civilians for recreational purposes. However, it turned out that a similar incident occurred in April when five Chinese men crossed the Yellow Sea border in the same kind of boat and arrived in Taean on April 19. Radars captured the boat three times, but law enforcement did not see it, and the relevant CCTV footage has since been deleted, as it is only kept for 30 days.
"To prevent the recurrence of such incidents, the military has vowed to strengthen its maritime surveillance position with more equipment and increased training for troops," even considering the use of UAVs to better detect attempted illegal intrusions. Alas, on June 4, 2020, a rubber boat and two life jackets were found in virtually the same area, and again the Coast Guard took up the case after a local resident reported seeing the rubber boat for five to six days at an unused seawall.
However, this is nothing compared to an incident in June 2019, when a wooden boat carrying four North Koreans arrived at the South Korean port of Samcheok on the east coast, 130 kilometers south of the border, without being detected.
If we return to the "gymnast," then even taking into account the extraordinary gymnastic training, the author believes it is an extremely difficult thing to jump a three-meter fence with barbed wire, and then overcome other complex fences and barriers, which include minefields. Of course, a video in which the defector demonstrated his gymnastic skills would have removed some of the suspicions, but for now the author thinks that the story of the skillful gymnast was invented by Defense Ministry officials in an attempt to answer the question of why the border was once again breached.

GRASS VALLEY, CA, April 1 — Nevada County's Office of Education won a FAFSA Challenge Award today, further improving the chances that Nevada County foster youth who are seniors in high school will go to college.
Nevada won the Very Small-sized County category of the California Foster Youth FAFSA Challenge, a statewide effort to improve access to college for foster youth by helping them fill out the Free Application for Federal Student Aid. The Nevada County Office of Education today received a $500 award from John Burton Advocates for Youth during a lunch-time ceremony at the Foster Youth Education Summit at the Hyatt Regency in Sacramento.
One hundred percent of Nevada County's high school seniors in foster care completed the application.
Now in its second year, the FAFSA Challenge, is led by John Burton Advocates for Youth (www.jbaforyouth.org), a San Francisco-based nonprofit organization founded by retired state Senator John Burton. It is the only coordinated effort in California specifically designed to reach foster youth and help them apply for student aid. The FAFSA Challenge effort receives funding from the Conrad N. Hilton Foundation, Walter S. Johnson Foundation, the Stuart Foundation, and the Tipping Point Community.
The winners also included Tulare in the Small County category, Fresno in the Medium-sized County category, San Bernardino for Large County, and Placer for the Most Improved County over last year, a new award category this year. All the winners were honored today at the Foster Youth Education Summit in Sacramento. Counties were placed in categories based on the number of foster youth who are high school seniors rather than the county's population.


Of all opera providers in Scotland in the days before the arrival of Edinburgh International Festival and Scottish Opera, Carl Rosa Opera was by far the most important and long-lasting. It may seem hardly surprising therefore that in our historic work we are concentrating first on tracking down their contribution.
The current phase involves us tackling the remainder of the years from 1900 to 1923 when the company was managed by the van Noordens.
Tales of Hoffmann; Tannhäuser; Thaïs and Talmaae; Tristan and Isolde; Trovatore.
We intend over the next year to post details for their remaining performances.
Other productions during 2017 now detailed on this site include the Ryedale Finta Giardiniera and two more small-scale stagings - Boheme, by Heritage and Boheme by Opera Bohemia.
The Carl Rosa Trust has undertaken to produce a history of the Carl Rosa Opera. Iain Fraser of OperaScotland has agreed to contribute a chapter on Rosa himself. All at OperaScotland generally are to collaborate by contributing information.
If anyone reading this is able to help, we'd also welcome your contribution.

First Impressions: Love Wash by Mike Etten
Imagine Lou Reed fronting the Revolver-era Beatles, Rain Parade backing Townes Van Zandt, or Richard Thompson joining the Stone Roses. To an extent, any one of those mental pictures works well to describe Love Wash, the debut album from NYC-based singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Mike Etten, who's toured and performed with a variety of bands over the past decade. To borrow a song title from the Long Ryders, Love Wash is pure psychedelic country soul, with some folk and folk-rock flourishes tossed in for good measure. It's a compelling listen.
As a whole, it's low key but not lo-fi, and best appreciated through headphones, where the soundscape often mutates into an intense dreamscape. The first track, "Across the Flats," is a great example. It finds Etten on a cross-country train trip mulling over his fear of commitment and more. "Speed hits your head like a hammer/and you're gone, gone, gone, gone…." As the songs unfolds, tape loops occasionally percolate from the nether land (a la "Tomorrow Never Knows") before receding into the void.
"Drive," the first single, continues the spacey-yet-grounded vibe. Inspired by a late-night ride on a country road, it features Tristan Shepherd on steel pedal.
The second teaser track, "Saints," was released two weeks back. It opens with a strummed acoustic guitar, but expands into something much more, with drums, synths and a violin coloring the music to great effect. As on the album's other songs, Etten tends to surround his vocals with equal parts echo and harmonies, which can make it difficult to decipher what he's singing. It annoyed me at first, to be honest, but over time I've come to hear his floating vocals as part of the soundscape, a la Michael Stipe and early R.E.M.
The meditative "December Sun" finds him "thinking of what-ifs" and expands upon the country licks hinted at in the first two songs, while "Dredging Up the Blues" ups the tempo and rhythm while he makes like a boozy Bob Dylan: "Saw me at the lottery stand/I was holding a sign that read, 'leave me alone, child.'"
"New Thing" harkens back to the latter-day Byrds, while the gentle "Dune House" recalls a "weekend away where everybody's safe" in the COVID era. "Hidden Away" continues the reflective mood, with him sharing his disdain for mornings while yearning for a new nightlife—a sentiment that's shared by many, I'm sure. "East Side Walk," the most country tune of the set, finds him fed up with city life: "Well eight years gone by, like a film dissolved/The city's for the very young/And the folks from somewhere else." The album closes with the title track, which builds from an acoustic open into something a tad more ominous, with a violin curling in from the background like a scythe.
All in all, as evidenced by the above, I like it a lot. It reminds me, in some ways, of the music made my beloved Paisley Underground bands, which sported a mishmash of influences that somehow jelled into a coherent sound. The same's true here. Give it a go.
The album is slated for release on Friday, October 1st and can be pre-ordered from Bandcamp.

For the theme of my thesis I have chosen to build an environment for a platform game. In this topic I will be dealing with three main tasks. These are: modelling, using a game engine and finding an ideal workflow.
3D modelling techniques are widely used, they are showing up in different industry fields. They play an important part of visualisation, prototype planning and rendering. The possibility of use is improved by the techniques concerning virtual reality and the appearance of 3D printers. Hence the 3D modelling techniques are growing dynamically, there are more and more activities in this field where qualified specialists are needed. Therefore, in the first part of my thesis I introduce the 3D modelling techniques.
Nowadays building up a computer game from scratch is very unusual. Programming a game engine, the physics of a game and further basic properties are extremely time-consuming and repeating it for every single game is redundant work. The solution is to use a ready-made game engine, which, like other software frameworks, makes game development easier, reduces the time of development and opens the field of game development for people who are not experts in the fields of programming and computer graphics. From the perspective of a computer science engineer the most important advantage is the time gained. Since expectations towards game graphics are increasing, the process of such development could take years. There are plenty of ready-made engines in the market, I chose the Unity engine for my thesis and built my example game therein.
Speaking of game development, there are a lot of frameworks and programs to help us implement each tasks. There are modelling programmes for modelling and animation, graphic software and 3D texturing programs for texturing and countless game engines for game development. And the queue could be extended by their expansions and programmes for more specific tasks. Sometimes there are overlaps between the functionalities, for example models and environment elements may be built up to a limited extent in the game engine, and physical phenomena and material properties could be created both in a modelling program and in the game engine. My objective is, in this wide variety, to find the optimal software for my task, to learn how to move project easily between them, to choose the right tool for each of my tasks, and, in the end, to build up an efficient workflow. In my opinion, when the number of alternatives are high, finding the right tools and a suitable workflow for a project creates a significant value.

This Old Video of Allison Mack Is Creepy
Allison Mack Seems Brainwashed In This Uncovered NXIVM Video
Kathryn Lindsay
Photo: PETER FOLEY/EPA-EFE/REX/Shutterstock.
In the midst the Allison Mack saga about her involvement in NXIVM, a cult that allegedly required branding, meal restriction, sex, and blackmail, a 2013 video of her has surfaced that shows her singing the praises of JNESS, the all-female subgroup of NXIVM that Mack was heavily involved in. However, what she says in this video does not match up to the allegations against her, and it's seriously creepy to watch knowing what we know now.
"Working for JNESS is, I think, the most gratifying thing that I've ever done," she says in the video. "It's the most challenging thing I've ever done because it consists of working with a group of people in a way that is totally interdependent, meaning we're all working together and no one is ever punished and no one is ever told that they're wrong and they're bad."
However, one of the accusations against the cult is that they blackmailed participants in the inner-circle, allegedly called DOS, by requiring them to send "collateral" like nude photos, financial information, or confessions to crimes in exchange for their loyalty. Other women have spoken out about being branded, starved, and used as sex slaves. Compare that to this:
"Watching the women who are involved in JNESS completely transform and evolve in a way that is so pure is such a privilege and really seeing people's life paths completely turn 180 degrees where in one moment they really felt like this was all that they had and this was all that they could do and then all of a sudden they come through JNESS and start working with us and in our community and it's like a whole other life is born out of their new experience with themselves, and that's an incredibly satisfying and gratifying thing to do."
In fact, the only part that sounds ominous is when she says that "JNESS is an organization that looks to all participants to be 100% responsible for themselves and their lives, so it makes it hard to blame people for mistakes."
But in general, Mack is so happy and upbeat through this video, which somehow makes this whole thing even more dark. Watch below:

A Democrat, Hoyle formerly served in the Oregon House of Representatives, representing District 14, which includes West Eugene, Junction City, and Cheshire. She was appointed to the House in August 2009 and reelected to full terms in 2010, 2012 and 2014.

In December 2021, Hoyle announced her candidacy for the U.S. House of Representatives in 2022. The seat was open after incumbent Peter DeFazio decided not to run for reelection.

Early life and education
Hoyle was born on Travis Air Force Base in Fairfield, California, in 1964. She earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in political science from Emmanuel College in Boston.

Before the 2011 legislative session, Hoyle was elected assistant caucus leader of the Oregon House Democrats. During the 2011 legislative session, she was co-vice chair of the House Subcommittee on Higher Education, and served on the House Committees on Health Care and Business & Labor.

Hoyle also served as a legislative co-chair of the Oregon Elder Abuse Prevention Workgroup.

After Oregon Governor John Kitzhaber resigned in February 2015, elevating Kate Brown to the governorship, The Oregonian named Hoyle as a possible successor to Brown as Oregon Secretary of State.

In the 2016 Democratic primary, she came in second place, receiving 33.81% of the vote to Democratic nominee Brad Avakian's 39.06%.

Oregon labor commissioner

In 2018, Hoyle ran to become Oregon's 10th labor commissioner, a nonpartisan elected position. She won the race outright in May, receiving 52% of the vote and winning 17 of 36 counties.

The poor display of batsmanship to short-pitched deliveries both in T20 World Cup and West Indies series, prompted nervous selectors to lean back on the likes of Sachin and Dravid to solidify middle order. The inclusion of both Dravid and Sachin is alright but what message have the selectors sent to the youngsters? You have talent, play well in the domestic circuit, show immense potential during IPL but when the question of selection for high profile international matches comes, we will not pick you. This is the demoralising and demotivating message the Indian selectors have sent to our young players.
What if both Dravid and Tendulkar fail in the Indo-Srilanka series? Will they again change the combination and go in for fresh talent? This is nothing but absurdity. We have immense talent warming the benches. The selectors should have held their nerves and persisted with the policy of taking young talent to the highest international challenges. This could have given them an opportunity to excel. But the selectors had other ideas.
The team's success depends not only on batting and bowling but fielding which is so critical in any game. But players like Dravid, Sachin and Nehra could hardly run to their potential as they used to field some years ago. Age is not on their side and naturally like Ganguly, they are not the best fielders now. The burden of fielding in crucial places would now rest on talented Youvraj, Raina and Gambir, while others are in the list of "also ran" cases. The team has no genuine allrounder. Irfan Pathan would have been crucial both with the new ball and batting down the order.
Kris Srikant was a failure both as a batsman and skipper. He was removed as Skipper soon after his return from Pakistan. He failed to play domestic matches because he took his place for granted. A few knocks of demolition as an opener did not make him an automatic choice as he fell to a leg side delivery more often particularly against Wasim Akram. He was dropped eventually. As a selector and a team Manager for Chennai Super Kings, in both IPL (1) and (2) he failed to see his team reach the pinnacle. He also courted another controversy by not picking up the talented Irfan Pathan in the 50 probables. He had to duck questions, when Yousuf Pathan, obviously misquoted, questioned the omission of his brother from the probables. BCCI is not doing a good job in appointing the selectors to pick the best team.
While every Indian including this writer wished the Indian team all success in the forthcoming Tri-series in Lanka and Champions Trophy, I for one believe that the selectors have done a great injustice to some of the talented players like Badrinath, Munaf Patel, Vijay and scores of others who showed immense talent in the shorter form of the game during IPL II matches.
Let us hope the team that has been chosen performs well. If they don't, then Krish would be held responsible for it. I think the inclusion of Dravid in particular, more as a Test batsman than an ODI player, along with Sachin would be a retrograde step, and only reveals the nervousness of the selectors. Jai Hind.

Study Suggests It's OK To Drink 25 Cups Of Coffee A Day. It's Not.
An expert explains the long list of reasons to keep your habit to a few cups per day.
By Jamie Feldman, HuffPost US
Some news surrounding coffee is conflicting. This news seems just plain irresponsible.
A study by the British Heart Foundation examined the relationship between coffee consumption and stiffening arteries. The study's researchers found that drinking up to 25 cups of coffee every day does not increase the likelihood of stiffening arteries, which can increase a person's likelihood of heart attack or stroke.
"Hooray!" and "I can't stop shaking!" is how we presume the people drinking 25 cups per day reacted to this news.
Sure, it's comforting for coffee lovers to hear that their habit ― even if it errs on the excessive side ― is heart-safe. But does that mean everyone should up their intake by 20-plus cups? Not quite.
"This is rather silly and irresponsible reporting in my view," Dr. David Katz, a director at the Yale-Griffin Prevention Research center and author of "The Truth About Food," told HuffPost. "Imagine a study showing that routine use of a radial arm saw did not increase the frequency of, say, migraine headaches. Would that prove the perfect safety of radial arm saws? If you think so, I know some people with missing fingers you ought to talk to."
Katz's point, of course, is that just because something is deemed safe for a (very) specific reason does not make it safe overall. Coffee and caffeine, for all their researched health benefits, have also been found to have a potentially negative impact too. The more you consume, the more vulnerable your body becomes.
"There is much more reason to be concerned about a host of other dose-related effects, from blood pressure elevation, to heart rate elevation, to cardiac dysrhythmias," Katz said. "More importantly, extreme coffee consumption is likely to be associated with harms unrelated to the heart (or at least not directly related), such as insomnia, agitation, and possibly a range of other metabolic effects, from microbiome to bone density."
Caffeine is the most used drug in the world and typically safe at a daily dose of 400 milligrams ― between three and four cups ― or less, according to the American Psychological Association. Beyond that, though, there is potential for trouble, including the symptoms described by Katz along with others like headaches and anxiety.
That's because caffeine is a stimulant, and research suggests that people with anxiety disorders may have an increased sensitivity to it. For people who experience panic attacks, the potential side effects of too much caffeine may sound all too familiar.
L. Kevin Chapman, a clinical psychologist in Louisville, Kentucky, who specializes in anxiety disorders and cognitive behavioral therapy, described the similar sensations to U.S. News and World Report in September.
"Caffeine acts as a stimulant and mimics the physical symptoms associated with anxiety, such as heart palpitations, restlessness, chest tightness, hot flushes and other symptoms," he said. Caffeine can also trigger a stress hormone that can also cause anxiety-type symptoms, according to U.S. News and World Report.
So, Katz said, this news is only really exciting for a very small number of people for one very specific reason.
"This study does not prove that 25 cups of coffee a day are reliably safe," Katz said. "It simply shows lack of one very specific harm in a population where some few self-selected to drink that much, quite possibly suggesting an extreme tolerance the rest of us do not enjoy."
Think we'll stick to our one to three cups a day for now.

Concert Set to Honor Late Canadian jazz pianist Oscar Peterson
It is being reported that a concert is being organized for next Saturday in Toronto to honor the life of late Canadian jazz pianist Oscar Peterson.
Organizers of the show, which is scheduled for January 12 at the Roy Thomson Hall include Bob Rae, ex-premier of the province of Ontario, Brian Robertson, ex-chair of the Canadian Recording Arts Industry Association and Peter Herrndorf, head of the National Arts Centre.
"Oscar Peterson – Simply the Best" will have performances by Measha Brueggergosman and numerous choirs, as well as speeches by Governor General Micha'lle Jean and Peterson family friend Rae, in addition to showing film footage from the great musician's discography.
The event will be free for the public to attend, and for those who can not make it, it will be broadcast on CBC Radio One at 4pm.
"I was proud to know him, proud that he was a Canadian and that he was frequently thought of that way. And it took us a while to figure it out as Canadians," said Ross Porter, the president and CEO of JAZZ FM in Toronto.
"The accolades came later in life for Oscar as a Canadian … And I know that was a bit of a pebble in his shoe for a number of years, but I think, toward the end, he finally shook that pebble out and felt a lot better about Canada … People often assumed that he had moved to Los Angeles or New York or lived outside of Canada. But he lived in Montreal and he lived in Toronto."

The site has been carbon dated to be from 3900 B.C. by latest research.
Carbon dating carried out on material at the entrance of the Menga dolmen in Antequera, Málaga in June 2006 has made the burial monument 1,000 years older than previously thought.
The latest analysis dates the site at 3790 B.C. in Neolithic times and not dating from the Copper age as previously thought.
Now Granada University professor, Francisco Carrión, has confirmed second analysis carried out by Swiss investigators which confirms the date with two samples at 3790 and 3730 B.C.
It places the Menga dolmen as unique among the 300 or so which are to be found in the Antequera region, and not only as it is the only one which does not face East but instead to the summer solstice in the North East.
It's thought that the presence of impressive nearby mountain, La Peña de los Enamorados, could be part of the reason why the dolmen was constructed in another way and possibly for sacred reasons.
Great couple of days for articles! Plenty more to post, but I'm going to bed, goodnight all.

Memo to Pat Robertson: Shut Up
Sounds hard to believe, but Pat Robertson really is a smart guy. He's a Yale Law grad who transformed a single UHF TV station in Virginia Beach into a televangelism empire. Along the way, he started the 700 Club, founded a major Christian university, and made a smart bet against conventional wisdom in the broadcast business, founding a family-oriented channel that he sold to Fox for almost $400 million.
That's why it's hard to believe that Robertson routinely makes such incredibly stupid statements. A few months back, he advocated the assassination of Venezuelan strongman Hugo Chavez (good idea, Pat, but not exactly something that should be broached publicly, just in case we're cooking up a coup, or Chavez uses your comments for a preemptive purge, and tightens his security detail).
Now, Robertson says that Ariel Sharon's stroke was a "punishment" from the Lord for dividing God's land, aka the State of Israel. Based on Pat's reading of the Bible, Sharon incurred God's wrath by handing the Gaza Strip to the Palestinians, just as Israel's ancident kings were punished by the Almightly for various sins.
By that logic, former Prime Minister Begin should have been struck down for reaching a peace accord with Egypt. Afterall, Begin gave back the entire Sinai Peninsula (land that has been a part of Israel at various times), and the site of some of the most important events in Judaism, including Moses's receipt of the 10 Commandments.
According to Robertson's theology, former Prime Minister (Ehud Barak) would be another candidate for a bolt from above. During the Wye River summit with the Palestinians, Barak offered to give back both the Gaza and the West Bank, "dividing" God's land on a scale that was absolutely mind-boggling. At last report, Mr. Barak was alive and well, and Prime Minister Begin lived to a ripe old age. So much for that theory.
Pat Robertson is a classic example of a bright guy whose mouth tends to overload his brain. And, unfortunately, he has a global platform to spout his views, which are most unhelpful at a difficult time in the Middle East. Dr. Robertson would be well advised to think before he opens his mouth, or just keep it shut.

spook86, I attended the then CBN University very briefly back in 1987 (grad school, one semester). To this day, I recall two things regarding the school and Dr. Robertson from back then:
* CBN University (now Regent University), at the time a very young school - only ten years old - was very well run, and had an exemplary list of grants and endowments upon which for the school and students to draw (can't say about it now, but back then, the school's philosophy was strictly against borrowing money for educational purposes, especially if the borrowed funds had any strings attached by the Govt)
* Administration officials I spoke with back then were actively working to separate the school from the twin shadows of Dr. Robertson and the Christian Broadcasting Network, as Dr. Robertson had a proclivity to making public statements that those officials considered embarrassing to the school and its administration.
I personally find it a shame that Dr. Robertson continues to forget, or perhaps to disregard, the amount of weight his words carry - at least when he says something that lands him in hot water with the press. Like it or not, he is considered by many to be a very public figure, and one can only wish that someday, he will begin to weigh his words like one, BEFORE opening his mouth.
When Pat sold the "Family Channel" to Fox back in '97, a lot of the money was donated to Regent University, further enhancing its financial stability.
I get the impression that the "separation" movement you spoke of is continuing. The leadership team at Regent has made some real strides in recent years. For example, their law school is now fully accredited, and does well in student competitions. When Oral Roberts "gave" the school to CBN, it was unaccredited, and viewed as a joke in the legal education community. There are still a few snickers about "God's law school" from the secularists, but the school is doing well, and it benefits from maintaining a healthy distance from CBN and Pat.

Humans Place 1 Million Species At Risk Of Extinction
8 May 2019, 10:09 pm EDT By Naia Carlos Tech Times
A new report from the world's experts paints a devastating picture of the planet with up to a million species on track to extinction.
The potential death toll is higher than it has been at any point in human history and scientists say time is running out to save all the species at risk.
IPBES Report Paints Bleak Picture For Plants, Animals
The report by the Intergovernmental Science-Policy Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services is the most comprehensive report of it's kind with data from 145 experts from 50 countries. By looking at changes over the past 50 years, the report analyzes economic development pathways and their impact on the environment.
Of Earth's 8 million plant and animal species, about 1 million plant and animal species are threatened with extinction in the next few decades.
The numbers of many species have already dropped drastically in the past century.
More than 500,000 land species are without sufficient habitat for long-term survival, while more than 40 percent of amphibian species are already threatened by extinction. Nearly 33 percent of reef-forming corals, sharks, and shark relatives are also threatened as well as more than 33 percent of all marine mammals.
Since the 16th century, 680 vertebrate species and over 9 percent of all domesticated mammals for food and agriculture have gone extinct.
All of these mean that it's likely for the world to fail in meeting the United Nation's biodiversity targets, which was set up to protect species essential for human survival.
"The essential, interconnected web of life on Earth is getting smaller and increasingly frayed," said Professor Josef Settele, who is the co-chair of the assessment report.
Settele explained that the losses are the direct result of humans and will eventually become a direct threat to people all around the world.
The Human Footprint
Some of the human activities that have led to the devastation of many plant and animal species include climate change, changes in how humans use the land and the sea, pollution, invasion of alien species, and direct exploitation of organisms.
Of course, the people behind the report stress that it's not too late to ensure the survival of many species, if not all.
IPBES chair Sir Robert Watson called for "transformative change" to turn things around, adding that a fundamental, system-wide reorganization is necessary "across technological, economic and social factors, including paradigms, goals, and values."
"Ours is the first generation with the tools to see how the Earth has been changed by people at our own peril," Guenter Mitlacher, director of international biodiversity policy at the World Wildlife Fund, told CNN. "We're also the last generation with the opportunity to influence the course of many of those changes. Now is the time to act, not halfheartedly and incrementally but drastically and boldly."

Public hearings set for Bukidnon revenue code
Posted by BukidnonNews.Net on February 28, 2014 in Breaking, Business, Governance | 0 Comment
MALAYBALAY CITY (Bukidnon News/28 February) – Public hearings in the 20 municipalities and two component cities of the province will be held from March 11 to May 8, to enact Bukidnon's first ever provincial revenue code.
In a notice of invitation, lawyer Apollo Maguale, Sangguniang Panlalawigan (SP) secretary, urged the public to attend the hearings and give suggestions to the proposed code.
Maguale told this reporter the provincial government will codify its revenue ordinances based on the Local Government Code of 1991.
In its explanatory note, the resolution proposing the enactment of the code cited that the provincial government had approved the Strategic Financial Management Plan (SFMP), which identified existing and potential revenue sources.
"There is a need to update and consolidate and/or compile the existing revenue ordinances and those that have been reflected in the SFMP of the province, thereby producing one compressed document ..," the resolution said.
The move will be "of great help to the provincial government, and the Code will ultimately guide and assist the implementor for its efficient and effective collection of revenues," the note added.
Maguale said a technical working group led by acting provincial treasurer Teodora Dinlayan wrote the draft which the SP approved late last year.
But Maguale noted that as an ordinance, the proposed legislation needs to undergo public hearings and publication in a newspaper for it to be enforceable in case it is approved.
Roderico Bioco, president of the Bukidnon Kaamulan Chamber of Commerce and Industry Inc. welcomed the move but added they he has not read the proposed legislation. He noted that he had written Gov. Jose Ma. R. Zubiri Jr. asking the provincial government to make all local ordinances conform to Republic Act 7160 or the Local Government Code.
"That's a wise move to take. I hope the people will actively participate, especially the business sector," Valencia City councilor Policarpo Murillo told Bukidnon News via SMS Friday afternoon. Murillo is also from the city's own business chamber.
Maguale said the proposed code will include increases in fees for the extraction of sand and gravel, from P30 per cubic to P50, plus P75 polluter's fee and P25 administrative fee for a total of P150.
He also mentioned increases in hospital fees, among others.
The hearings were schedule every 1:30p.m. on March 11 (Kibawe), March 12 (Damulog), March 13 (Dangcagan), March 18 (Kitaotao), March 19 (Don Carlos), March 20 (Kadingilan), March 25 (Maramag), March 26 (Quezon), March 27 (Pangantucan), April 1 (Kalilangan), April 2 (Valencia City), April 3 (San Fernando), April 8 (Cabanglasan), April 10 (Lantapan), April 22 (Impasugong), April 23 (Sumilao), April 24 (Manolo Fortich), April 29 (Libona), April 30 (Baungon), May 6 (Talakag), May 7 (Malitbog) and May 8 (Malaybalay).

What is LDL Cholesterol assay used for?
Low Density Lipoproteins (LDL) are synthesised in the liver by the action of various Lipolytic enzymes on triglyceride rich Very Low Density Lipoproteins (VLDLs). Specific LDL receptors exist to facilitate the elimination of LDL from plasma by liver parenchymal cells. It has been shown that most of the cholesterol stored in atherosclerotic plaques originates from LDL. For this reason the LDL-Cholesterol concentration is considered to be the most important clinical predictor, of all single parameters, with respect to coronary atherosclerosis.
Accurate measurement of LDL-Cholesterol is of vital importance in therapies which focus on lipid reduction to prevent atherosclerosis or reduce its progress and to avoid plaque rupture.
It is recommended a patient get tested when aged 40; as part of a routine CV health check; if they are already thought to be at risk of CVD for another reason; or to monitor their response to treatments which lower LDL Cholesterol.

Q: Defining the characteristic polynomial of an endomorphism through its properties instead of a formula The usual definition of the characteristic polynomial of an endomorphism $f$ of a finite dimensional $F$ vector space is $\chi_f(T)=\det(T\operatorname{id}-f)$. It's essentially just a formula. Meanwhile, the usual definition of the minimal polynomial is much more conceptual: the minimal polynomial $\mu_f$ of $f$ is the unique monic polynomial in $F[T]$ of least degree except the zero polynomial such that $\mu_f(f)=0$. (Or more abstractly the monic generator of $\ker\varphi_f$, where $\varphi_f:F[T]\to\operatorname{End}(V)$ is the evaluation homomorphism at $f$). This definition emphasizes the properties of the polynomial in question, instead of a way to calculate it.
Question: Is there a nice way to define the characteristic polynomial in a similar way? Bonus points if it makes the theory built on top easier (like a more straightforward proof of Cayley-Hamilton). Additional bonus points if the definition doesn't rely on the existence of an algebraic closure of $F$.

A: Let $R$ be a PID (or more generally a Dedekind domain). Let $C$ be the category of finitely generated torsion modules over $R$. Then there is a unique way $F$ to assign to every element of $C$ an ideal of $R$ such that the following identities are satisfied:
$F(R/(a))=(a)$
$F(M\oplus N)=F(M) \cdot F(N)$
This $F$ is actually a special case of a more general construction, called the 0-th Fitting ideal denoted $\mathrm{Fitt}_0(M)$. Caley-Hamilton is a special case of the relation $\mathrm{Fitt}_0(M) \subset \mathrm{Ann}(M)$.
But we can also prove Caley-Hamilton from the characterization given above: Just use the structure theorem for finitely generated modules over a PID and note that if $M \cong R/(a_1) \oplus \dots R/(a_n)$, then we have $F(M)=(\prod a_i)$ and $\mathrm{Ann}(M)=(\mathrm{lcm}(a_1, \dots, a_n))$. As the least common multiple divides the product, we are done.
Anyway, if we have this assignment, we can associate to each finite-dimensional $k$-vector space with an endomorphism $f$ a finitely generated torsion $k[T]$-module and to that an ideal in $k[T]$, the characteristic polynomial is then the unique monic generator of that ideal.
To elaborate on how to get a $k[T]$-module from an endomorphism of a vector space, the construction is as follows: let $V$ be a vector space and let $f$ be an endomorphism of $V$. Then we can take $V$ as an abelian group and define the $k[T]$-module structure via the formula $(\sum a_i T^i)v=\sum a_i f^i(v)$, where $f^i$ denotes $f^{i}$ applied $i$ times. This yields a $k[T]$-module and if $V$ is finite-dimensional, the module is torsion, as indicated in the comments.
Note that this construction of associating a $k[T]$ module to a finite-dimensional $k$ vector space with an endomorphism as a way of studying the endomorphism has applications beyond characteristic polynomials and Caley-Hamilton. Indeed, via the structure theorem for finitely generated modules, it provides a conceptual and algebraic way of proving existence and uniqueness of the Jordan normal form and the Frobenius, which solves the problem of classifying endomorphisms up to similarity.

Thank-you, Miss Marilyn & Miss Danelda, for being our "adopted aunts" & for all the special memories!! We love you!!
We were finally packed up and ready to go at 6:45, at least 30 minutes later than we had wanted to go. But this was a beautiful day, we had good food to put over the fire, and everyone was excited about heading back to our camping site (a mile from our farm) for the first time this spring. We had packed supplies for supper, for spending the night , and for breakfast in the morning. Nobody told us we would need plenty of patience and a generous amount of laughter, too!! Carson, Joshua, Denver, and Taylor had gone back 2 hours earlier with the mower & the golf cart to pick up sticks and mow the grass. Allison biked back, Mitchell ran, and that left Marlin, Chelsy, Elizabeth, Hudson, and I to ride in the pickup which was loaded down with everything from pasta salad and brats to pillows and sleeping bags. When we were about 1/8 mile from the campsite our troubles started. I forgot to tell you that we have had an abundance of rain in the past week but the last few days have been dry and sunny so we thought the lane would be dry. Alas, the pickup got stuck so Marlin ran back to the farm to get the uni loader to pull the pickup out of the mud. Unfortunately, that didn't work, and we now had a pickup and a uni loader stuck. So Marlin and Mitchell ran back to the farm again, this time to bring back the tractor & the 4-wheel drive pickup. Finally, a plan that worked! :) While all this was going on, supper was cooked over the fire and the rest of us started to eat while Marlin and the older boys were working in the mud. By the time Marlin finally got to eat supper it was getting dark which meant it was time to put up the tents. Now we had another problem. The little boys had packed what they thought were 2 tents but in fact it was a very small tent and the cover and poles for our large family sized tent. It was dark by the time we got the first tent up so Marlin, Hudson, and I headed back to the house for the night while the girls settled in the small tent and the boys slept under the stars. All in all, it was an event that we will remember for a long time! If you have seen the movie "Facing the Giants" you will remember the phrase "We're gonna praise God when we win and praise God when we lose"! Truly, that applies to everyday life so well. Our camping trip was concluded the next morning with a tasty breakfast of brats and pancakes cooked over the fire and fresh fruit. (In case you weren't counting....we had 6 vehicles back there at one time! No, sorry, we didn't get a photo of all of them lined up.... :) ) And thus ended our first camping trip of "07.
The dilemma that comes when tires connect with mud...LOTS of mud. :O Daddy & Hudson enjoy strawberries for breakfast~what a yummy treat!!
Mitchell......the assistant cook for our breakfast.
Family devotions around the fire, with the beauty of God's creation surrounding us.
"My son, keep my words, and lay up my commandments with thee. Keep my commandments, and live; and my law as the apple of thine eye. Bind them upon thy fingers, write them upon the tables of thine heart."

Some people love Elizabethan gardens, and others like the wild ruins of Kenilworth Castle.
In the 13th century, Kenilworth was the castle where the bachelor knights supporting Parliament made their last stand against Henry III and his son Prince Edward.
In the 16th century Queen Elizabeth gave the castle to her favourite, Robert Dudley. He created a sumptuous residential block and a private garden which he thought would please her when she visited. Alas, she stayed for nineteen days. The expense of entertaining her and all her court almost bankrupted him.
However, the festivities are said to have been the inspiration for Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream, so that's alright.
The garden was closed to all but the Queen and her closest companions, but one day while the Queen was out hunting, Adrian the gardener allowed one Robert Langham inside.
Although he cannot have visited the garden for more than a few hours, Langham left an extremely detailed description of its features. The accuracy of his account is borne out by archaeological evidence, which confirms that an eight-sided fountain once stood at the centre of the garden, just as he claims.
English Heritage, which previously restored the castle gatehouse, has now re-created the garden based on Langham's private letters. Visitors will see an aviary, "water jokes", arbours, fruit trees and an 18-foot-tall, 8-sided fountain.

Our project was born due to the acquaintance of bitcoin enthusiasts until a few years ago. And in November 2018, we registered legally. We have been through it all: cryptocurrency's glory days, the down-lows, the roller coaster spikes, the cliff drops and many other things. But these ordeals have made us some of the strongest-willed holders in the volatile arena of trading. We're used to believing in Crypto's Potential, even if no one else does. It's never easy to keep believing through the bad times, but we crypto traders are of a different tenacity. The SUCCESSFUL INNOVATION LIMITED staff consists of the talented and experienced traders and miners in the field of crypto currency. We trade Bitcoin and altcoins on the most popular exchanges, which brings us and our investors a regular profit. The company implements the latest technologies and strategies of success achievement for a harmonious and stable development of the project every day. We have developed and successfully applied fully automated trading systems based on our trading experience, mathematical analysis and innovative software. Our activities also include mining of Altcoins. Bitcoin Mining is incredibly difficult now. The amount of energy required to mine bitcoin blocks increase as the community nears the maximum 21 million bitcoins. Instead of mining in an overcrowded market, we are currently specializing on mining various Altcoins, which can be then be swapped to Bitcoins by the user. This way we can circumvent the problem that the difficulty of mining is rising at an incredible pace. We believe that Altcoins have high importance, because diversity fosters innovative blockchain technology. The many different coins with their strong communities are an inseparable part of the digital currency sector and we stand by their side with full support. Our company is operating several mining farms that are located in Northern Ireland and Scotland. We have equipped them with the most powerful and modern mining hardware that runs around the clock. Currently, our goal is to develop wider European network of mining farms. And we have no limits in achieving our goal, so we are working so actively to expand the project, inviting new investors to cooperate. Many of you have been waiting for such a proposal, and we are confident that you will not be disappointed with our service.

This is a computer-generated vector image of a book-binders' ruler in perspective view. At the bottom of the image, the zero-point, the ruler's increments are very close to being accurate (the first inch is almost 1 inch), but they diminish as they approach the vanishing point 36 inches above. The picture of the ruler is the length of a yard stick (36 inches), but the ruler in the picture theoretically goes to infinity. When printed on a high-resolution press, the print resolution acts as a threshold: if the increments become too close for the printer to register, every second increment is skipped until the distance between the last increment and the vanishing point is below the threshold, at which time the process stops.


@support I restored 'Alexander' from a cloned backup using Carbon Copy Cloner; Plex, Backblaze all see this as the original 'Alexander' on a Drobo 5D, but Roon has the'Drive Not Ready' message. Files are in the same place, same volume name, same everything. What do I do now? I did a restore from backup and I get the same message.
I did not think this applied to macs though.
Same issue here on a Mac as well, and same solution. Clearly not limited to Linux machines.
Did you also have a 'panic moment' ? I did a whole restore from backup before I managed to find a solution via the forum.
Hey guys – we understand the underlying issue here, and we're testing some improved behavior in alpha right now. Hoping to release that soon, but this generally shouldn't be a big deal.
This error simply means we tried to scan the watched folder and couldn't access it. You're probably getting this because of how we're trying to identify the drive, and that's the exact behavior we're currently improving.
Since 1.3 was released, it's been easy to edit a storage location when Roon is unable to find it, or if it's location changes for some reason, and this is a nice safe way to point Roon at a new location for your files.
One thing to note here – when you are in this DriveNotReady state, Roon assumes the files are missing temporarily and the folder will be coming back online at some point. This means if you ADD the folder's new location (as opposed to editing or removing the previous reference) the files will be rescanned and imported as new, because Roon will be tracking the file in two places.
Yes, this is what happened when I deleted and readded the same location. A restore from backup and the 'edit' option and all was well.
