Here, Brendan Fox, Head of Commercial at multi-sport and active holiday tour operator Sports Tours International gives us his top tips on how to promote healthier minds and lifestyles at work.
Having a water cooler and keeping cupboards stocked with fruit and healthy snacks will help to promote a healthy diet in the office.
Organise exercise classes on site for employees to attend.
Enter a company team into a public run. This builds relationships within the workplace, encourages employees to get fitter and is a great way to fundraise for charity.
Sports Tours International hosts a series of 10k runs across the North West such as: UKFast 'We Love Mcr 10k', the UKFast City of Salford 10k and the Matalan Merseyside 10k. There is also the opportunity to compete in the 'corporate challenge' and take a trophy back to the office!
Use match funding incentives, such as matching the fundraising efforts of employees. This is a great way of encouraging staff and giving something back to the community.
Create an internal corporate challenge. Like a school sports day but for employees! These social events help people bond with others on the team who they perhaps wouldn't normally interact with on a daily basis and builds a better sense of community within your organisation.
Conduct a survey on what employees value as healthy wellbeing at work. By getting a response off employees, it helps to get a better understanding of the people you work with.
The cycle to work scheme is becoming more popular and is also environmentally friendly. It also serves as a catalyst for taking part in cycling events.
Create a physical toolkit. Outlining a plan for employees on suggesting how to get fitter from how to get to work to making use of your lunch break reflects positively on the company's image.
Experts at Sports Tours International are available to visit companies and create employee fitness schemes.

Luke Kennard scores 27 for Drive as he nears return to Pistons lineup
Detroit Pistons shooting guard (shoulder) scores 27 in rehab assignment as he nears return to lineup.
Luke Kennard scores 27 for Drive as he nears return to Pistons lineup Detroit Pistons shooting guard (shoulder) scores 27 in rehab assignment as he nears return to lineup. Check out this story on Freep.com: https://www.freep.com/story/sports/nba/pistons/2018/11/30/detroit-pistons-luke-kennard-injury/2162928002/

Luke Kennard is at the next step in his return to the Detroit Pistons lineup.
The second-year shooting guard was assigned to the team's Gatorade League affiliate in Grand Rapids late Thursday afternoon — an assignment for Kennard to reacclimate to the speed of the game after missing 15 games with a right shoulder sprain.
Kennard will miss Friday night's Pistons game against the Chicago Bulls and likely Saturday night's game against the reigning NBA-champion Golden State Warriors.
He will play for the Grand Rapids Drive on Friday night and possibly Sunday afternoon.
He scored 27 points in the Drive's loss to the Lakeland (Fla.) Magic.
He could be available for the Pistons' game against the Oklahoma City Thunder on Monday night at Little Caesars Arena.
"To me, it's not a put-down," Casey said. "It's a great place to work on your craft, conditioning, his defense, just overall the speed of the game. When you've been off as long as he has, the No. 1 thing you have to get ready for is the speed of the game."
Kennard was playing well, shooting 4-for-4, when he suffered the injury while trying to get around a screen against the Cleveland Cavaliers on Oct. 25.
The Pistons (11-7) have won seven of nine games with rookie Bruce Brown emerging as a viable option off the bench. Langston Galloway has also shot well recently, so minutes could be tough for Kennard. But Casey is ready to have the option.
"I don't think he's going to be there for a long period of time. I think it's going to be one or two games," Casey said. "It depends on how he comes out after (Friday)."

I couldn't figure out what was causing the pain on my leg. I felt as if I cut myself, but that wasn't the case. As I kept twisting in bed it dawned on me that it's far from being a cut, it's a burn and from no other source but the sun. It's been barely two weeks of beautiful sunshine here in Nor Cal and I've spent as many days as I could in the pool. We haven't had many warm days in a long time that I forgot what a sunburn feels like, but it was all good in a few minutes thanks to the cooling Aloe Vera gel.
The warm placid summer days for some reason force me into reading. Sitting behind a computer screen on a hot day is a torture, but a book in a hammock with a refreshing drink, is just ideal. With the excitement of spending more time behind books, I decided to have a themed summer read and revisit some of my favorite books on one of favorite places in the whole world . . . Israel. The last time I was in Israel was four years ago and even though it would be wonderful to stroll the streets of Jerusalem in person, for now I have to do it through books. I started off with some archaeology review with Hershel Shanks' Jerusalem an Archaeological Biography. Then this week I opened O Jerusalem and was completely emerged into the modern history of Israel. Today I added From Beirut to Jerusalem to my wishzilla list and am also thinking of flipping through the yellow pages of The Land and the Book from the eighteen hundreds. Yes, most of them have Jerusalem in the title, but the city is so remarkable that it can hardly be contained in just a few titles. There are a few others I'm still thinking of, but if you have good recommendations, make sure to pass them on!


BlenderNEURON is a software tool that takes a NEURON simulator model and exports its 3D structure and membrane activity to Blender, an open-source high-performance 3D modeling tool. BlenderNEURON is easy to install and requires no model translation or modification.
Once a model is in Blender, users can inspect or debug cell morphology and network connectivity, re-play, step through, or scrub through compartment membrane voltage over time, and render the model as beautiful images, videos, or animated GIFs.
The tool is useful for debugging biophysically realistic neural models, easily creating visually impressive figures, and as a virtual laboratory for teaching neuroscience concepts. Most importantly, the tool works with a large body of existing NEURON models. The export can be performed via NEURON GUI or automated via Python commands.
NeuroML models can be visualized by converting them to NEURON with j/pyNeuroML. Support for other simulators can be added by passing section morphology and activity data to the client library.
The tool has been developed by researchers at Arizona State University and has been used as part of the NeuroML-DB.org project.
Users interact with the client library, which sends commands to the Blender addon, which then creates the meshes, materials, and animations in Blender. The user can then interact and modify the model in Blender.
Load the BlenderNEURON GUI or Python module, and use them to export the model to Blender.

Advice & Best PracticeFeatures
The UK – Paying for Covid with tax rises: what are the least bad options?
By James Paull, Andersen UK's Head of Incentives
Heather Sandlin2 weeks ago
With the bill for Government support during the Covid crisis already high and likely to rise, there will naturally be a time for a reckoning. While it is hoped that some of these costs can be funded through economic recovery, increased productivity and targeted spending cuts, it is only realistic to expect that some of the bill will need to be paid through tax rises.
Tax rises are never popular, so it will always be a case of finding the least bad option. But what does this look like? We would suggest that the "ideal" tax rises would have the following characteristics:
they should not be harmful to the economic recovery;
they should be fair: for example, they should not seek to tax for a second time income or gains that have already been taxed;
liabilities should be simple to understand and calculate;
they should not be capable of easy avoidance by behavioural change or restructuring;
they should fall in the right places: on those who have done best through the crisis and can afford to pay and away from those who are experiencing difficulties; and
any risks from the increased tax should be more than offset by the potential revenue raising capability.
The focus of discussion in the media to date seems to have primarily focused on:
Rossum: The future of invoicing is here
Those that don't automate their financial processes in 2021 will get left behind
raising income tax or VAT;
increasing the rate of CGT and other tinkering; and
imposing a "one off" wealth tax.
We think all of these are bad ideas and fail to meet at least one, and in some cases many more, of the "ideal" conditions we mention above.
Raising income tax and/or VAT is simple to implement, calculate and understand and, as these taxes are widely paid, could raise significant revenue. However, they are very blunt instruments and would disproportionately impact those already struggling, particularly given the likely size of the rises that would need to be made to raise sufficient revenue. By reducing individual disposable income they would also hamper economic recovery.
Increasing the rate of CGT, potentially to income tax levels, would again be simple to implement and understand. However, it would have relatively low revenue raising capability and would be relatively easy to avoid (e.g. by deferring disposals or by ceasing to be UK resident). It also carries an unquantifiable risk of hampering economic recovery which, given the relatively low potential revenue raise, should be avoided at all costs.
The wealth tax as proposed is just an unequivocally bad idea. It is, in many cases, double taxation, and throws up some complex valuation issues in relation to illiquid assets (particularly property, unlisted shares and chattels) as well as funding problems in respect of these illiquid assets, which typically form a large part of many individuals' wealth. It cannot be right to expect people to borrow to pay a tax.
So if all of these are bad ideas, what can we propose that is any better? A good starting point of principle would be to look at areas where individuals have previously enjoyed tax relief and, on a strictly short term basis, claw back some of this relief. Similarly, identifying beneficiaries of the Covid crisis and targeting additional tax at these individuals and organisations would seem to be more equitable than across the board targeting. With this in mind, we think the ideas set out below merit further investigation.
A great deal of the wealth of the UK population is held in private pension funds. Estimates of the total amounts vary, but generally run into the trillions. A relatively low levy on these funds could have a very significant revenue raising impact.
Given the levels of volatility that equity markets have experienced over the last 9 months, a levy of, say a 1%, may scarcely be noticeable to most. It could, in some ways, be likened to an additional management fee. For defined contribution plans, the valuation and calculation of the liability is clear. Provisions could permit the pension plan to pay the tax so there are no liquidity issues and the payment is being made out of tax relieved income so is less unfair than a blanket wealth tax.
For defined benefit plans, the valuation is a little more complex – but not much. One could calculate the transfer value of the plan, take the required 1% of this and equate this to a haircut of pension income (say £20,000 to £19,800 per annum). This should, of course, be applied equally to public sector pensions.
Finally, the thorny issue of tax relief on pension contributions could be addressed again, with perhaps a temporary, and we mean temporary, erosion of the ability to claim full tax relief. The problem with this is that it may simply trigger behavioural change and incentivise individuals away from pension savings, which is a bad long-term direction to be taking.
The pill could, and we think should, be sweetened by providing some additional tax relief on distributions from the plan, perhaps by an increase in the tax free lump sum that can be drawn from the pension to reflect contributions to the Covid bill.
Although ISAs are purchased out of taxed income; any income or capital returns are tax-free. This relief could be partially clawed back by a relatively small one off levy on uncrystallized ISA gains. Again this should be relatively easy to value and any payment is from income/gains that would not otherwise be taxed so is less inequitable. The payment could be made from partial redemption and could be administered by the investment manager, so should not lead to undue complexity at individual taxpayer level. Realistically, given the low interest rates currently available, the burden would be expected to fall primarily on stocks and shares rather than cash ISAs.
Covid Windfalls
While many businesses have struggled through Covid, particularly those that have been forced to close, or those that operate in the hardest hit sectors, there can be no doubt that for some businesses Covid has been a time of opportunity.
Consideration could be given to introducing a windfall tax on super-profits where it can be demonstrated that these have flowed from the Covid pandemic. In our view, this could justifiably be set at quite a high rate (perhaps 10%) that would still be lower than the main rate of corporation tax in recent memory (which sat at 30% as recently as 2008).
Of course, there could be some complexity as to who is classified as making "Covid super-profits". Some organisations will be obvious (such as PPE suppliers, vaccine producers etc). Others may be less so. For example, an online retailer may have experienced a spike in profits partly due to Covid and partly due to other unrelated innovations. Designing a pragmatic mechanism to ensure as fair a method as possible of attributing profits to Covid related benefits may not catch all those who have benefited but could pick up a reasonable proportion.
Clawback of government funding
Some businesses have navigated the crisis without recourse to Government funding. Others have been forced to rely heavily on public money to meet their wage bills. Of course, this is in no way the fault of these latter businesses, but when the time comes to pay for the Government intervention, it is arguable that it is those that have benefited most from it should pay their share. This would only be payable on profits above a certain threshold, so should not impact those businesses still struggling to recover; only those that are, hopefully, out of the woods.
This could be argued to be philosophically no different from the seemingly acceptable principle of asking students earning above a specific level of income to repay, through an income tax surcharge, some of the costs of their university tuition. Using this analogy, a surcharge could be set at an equivalent amount to that contributed by graduates (currently 9%).
The possible liability to this surcharge could continue for a potentially long period to give businesses the chance to recover. Clearly, the surcharge would cease once all Government sourced finance had been repaid (potentially, following the graduate analogy to its conclusion, together with interest of up to RPI plus 3% per annum).
Corporation tax deductions for share plans
For employee share plans that meet certain qualifying conditions, the employer is entitled to a deduction against its profits for corporation tax purposes equal to the amount of gain realised by the employee. There does not need to be any cash cost incurred by the employer in funding these awards so, in some senses, this is a free deduction. Although there should be an accounting cost of delivering these awards, this does not necessarily equate to the deduction that is received, as in many cases the accounting charge will be calculated on a different basis (and may be higher or lower than the statutory deduction). For companies with large share price growth, the statutory deduction can have a material impact on the amounts of corporation tax paid, sometimes wiping out the bill entirely.
The rules relating to share plan deductibility could be adjusted either to move to an accounting basis, a hybrid (a deduction on the lower of accounting costs or statutory basis) or a temporary disallowance of share plan deductions altogether. This would have the impact of increasing the corporation tax take without affecting the cash position of the employer.
In our view, there is no single silver bullet that solves the problem of using tax to pay for Covid costs whilst being in any way equitable. We are concerned that the blunt tools currently being mooted could cause material collateral damage on an individual and/or wider economic level. We therefore think that a selection of the above ideas should be considered. In our view, these suggestions meet all or most of the criteria for an "ideal" tax that we have proposed and are capable of being viewed as targeted at those who are most able to contribute.
As we indicated in the introduction, we in no way wish for tax rises, but if tax rises there must be, then let's at least try to make them as painless as possible.

Elementary teachers' union updates electronic device policy
The Elementary Teachers' Federation of Ontario has updated its policy position on the student use of personal electronic devices, preferring for them to be turned off and put away unless a teacher says otherwise.
CBC News · Posted: Aug 17, 2013 5:31 PM ET | Last Updated: August 18, 2013
That policy, which was amended at the union's annual general meeting, informs ETFO in its discussions with the government and school boards on related issues.
A portion of that policy now states that such devices, which include cellphones, should "be stored and turned off during the instructional day unless their use is directly authorized by staff."
In a separate resolution, ETFO voted to study the effects of non-ionizing electromagnetic radiation, the potentially harmful radiation emitted by cellphones. A report is due on the matter in February.
Health Canada has said that the majority of research to date does not support a link between exposure and poor health.
An earlier version of this story incorrectly stated that ETFO had voted to ban the use of cellphones in classrooms. In fact, the union updated its policy on the use of personal electronic devices in the classroom.

A second patient at the Brantford General Hospital now has COVID-19 as part of an outbreak declared on the weekend.
The patient's diagnosis was confirmed Monday.
Two patients now part of COVID-19 outbreak at BGH Back to video
David McNeil, president and CEO of the Brant Community Healthcare System, which runs BGH along with the Willett urgent-care centre in Paris, said Tuesday that the two patients who acquired COVID-19 in the hospital and five staff members with the virus are all connected to unit C-7, the palliative care and complex continuing care unit.
"People can be reassured we have a mechanism to quickly identify and contain the disease. We have a very good screening protocol in place and the fact that we identified this so quickly is reassuring."
McNeil said all staff and patients who tested negative continue to be closely monitored, and enhanced measures have been put in place at the facility that include deep environmental cleaning and screening of all workers entering the hospital.
He said the outbreak was not caused by or connected to a lack of appropriate personal protection equipment such as masks, gloves and gowns.
In all, there are now seven patients with COVID-19 at BGH.
McNeil was part of a regular media tele-conference held by Dr. Elizabeth Urbantke, Brant's acting medical officer of health.
Urbantke said the Brant County Health Unit has now recorded 67 positive COVID-19 cases. Of those, 32 cases are now resolved.
The first and only COVID-19 fatality in Brantford and Brant County was reported on April 2 with the death of a woman in her 60s.
The COVID-19 assessment centre at the hospital has taken 1,400 swabs. Urbantke said 570 tests have come back negative.
Urbantke said that, of the confirmed cases, 29 people were infected through close contact with another case, 20 are the result of community spread transmission and 11 are travel-related. The transmission of seven cases is still under investigation
The doctor said the health unit has increased information on its web page about how people can lodge complaints about those failing to meet physical distancing and other guidelines aimed at stopping the spread of COVID-19.
Urbantke said the health unit has so far received 64 complaints, most dealing with a lack of physical distancing. Five complaints were about workplaces and three were reporting violations of self-isolations.
Health unit Inspectors or Brantford or Brant bylaw officers respond to the complaints, supported by police where necessary. But, so far, the health unit is focusing on educating people, said Urbantke.
"In a few cases, owners or individuals were given warnings. No tickets have been issued to date from BCHU enforcement officers."
Urbantke said the enforcement officers are visiting grocery stores, banks, delis, dollar stores and pharmacies to ensure there are not too many customers and lineups are managed properly and staff know their responsibilities.
"Issuing tickets is one tool in our toolbox to ensure the public understands the severity of what we are dealing with here. We also hope it's one we seldom have to use."
While the health unit is mandated to monitor those who test positive and to explore their contacts, the Brant Community Healthcare System is dealing with testing residents and health-care workers through its assessment centre.
McNeil said of the 1,400 tests conducted, 878 were direct referrals from the public or from staff and about 350 were in-patient tests.
While the assessment centre is facing a limited supply of kits needed in the lab to complete tests , McNeil said swabbing of potential cases can continue.
"It means a longer turnaround time and we are prioritizing health-care workers but we're not turning people away (at the assessment centre)."
Meantime, an outbreak at St. Joseph's Lifecare Centre in Brantford was declared over on Sunday. The outbreak was declared on April 2 after one staff member tested positive for COVID-19.
The provincial Ministry of Health has a "very low threshold" for testing at long-term care facilities, said Urbantke. A situation is considered an outbreak with just one positive test from a resident or worker.
An outbreak is declared over when there are no new cases in residents or staff for 14 days after putting the last case in isolation.
At the end of March, a third-party worker at Telfer Place in Paris also triggered an outbreak declaration but that was declared over on April 6.
Urbantke addressed some discrepancies in the numbers that the health unit releases each day at 11 a.m. on its website, and those the province releases each day.
The numbers have been different each day with the provincial numbers generally higher than the local ones.
"We were in direct contact with Public Health Ontario last week and found they have been putting Six Nations numbers in with ours," Urbantke said.
Six Nations of the Grand River has its own public health system. On Tuesday, Six Nations reported nine positive COVID-19 cases with one death. To date, Six Nations has conducted 140 tests, of which 112 were negative.
Seven of the nine positive cases have been resolved, meaning they are recovered and out of self-isolation but still physically distancing themselves.

If you are of Irish, Scottish, Welsh, or Gaelic descent, Celtic music is probably a component of your ancient heritage. You can trim the starting or end of a music track in the same way that you trim video clips, and you can have multiple audio tracks if you need to have them. I actually am not one to ever create issues like this, but I really feel like I truly ought to just say that YouTube to MP3 is the ideal, most intuitive, most cohesive and most cleverly made application I have ever downloaded. Chances are that this music may possibly only be approved for private use and uploading it to YouTube and monetizing it could have just violated that license.
I just ran into this situation and had a YouTube video embedded in a blog post which was removed for copyright. Rhapsody also produces the Rhapsody Music Software which competes with iTunes as a way to organise and synchronise your music collection. Bottom Line: Although it will price you a hefty $99.99, the Sony NWZ-W273 is an outstanding waterproof MP3 player. Meanwhile, 47 of the top 50 clips on YouTube are music videos, proving the value of the streaming web site to the music business – in spite of the truth the two sides are locked in a battle over royalty payments.
With guidelines, tricks and strategies to boost music practice and performance, improve creativity and develop a career in music as a performer or teacher, the Musician's Way blog expands substantially on the book. Namun tidak sembarang musik yang dapat 'diterima' oleh youtube, diterima disini maksudnya adalah musik yang memuat hak cipta, ketika anda mengaktifkan fitur monetize akan tetapi backsound memuat hak cipta, akan sangat disayangkan karena uang tidak akan mengalir ke akun adsense anda, dan yang lebih parah bisa terjadi banned akun pada channel youtube anda.
It made sense to assume this, since YouTube Music Crucial bundled Google Play Music All Access. But the BPI says that figure, a 5-year high, would be effectively more than £1bn if the market got the revenue it believes it deserves from video streaming. Extremely quick, effortless to use, and formats the music with all the right labels (at excellent quality, also!) Thanks for building this solution, as effectively as being cost-free! Application automatically detects artist name and track title of the video and saves it in the downloaded file.

Q: exception in thread main java.lang.arrayindexoutofboundsexception 1 well i have to make a java program which determinate if a given number is capicua(131,12121,13431) the same number from last to initial digit. but it gives me the error, in the line 23 (while(i>=0).....) the question is how can i call the array into thath while. pls help me im really sad :c. Here is the code:
public class Capi {
    /**
     *
     **/
    public static int num(int a) { // counting digits from the number
    int n = 0;
    while(a>=10) {    a = a/10;
            n = n+1;
           }
    return n;
    }
    public static boolean det(int a, int n) {
    int z = a;
    double y =0;
    n = n-1;
    int i = 0;
    int x[] = new int[n];
    for(i=0; i<x.length; i++) { // saving the digits into x[i]
        x[i] = a%10;
        a = a/10;
        }
    while(i>=0) { y = x[i]*Math.pow(10,n-1); // calling the digits x[i],x[i-1]   untill it gets 0
        i = i - 1;
        n = n -1;
            }
    double num1= y + a*Math.pow(10,n);
    if(num1 == z) { return true; }
    else { return false; }
    }
}

A: I feel the issue is that the value of i is set to x.length, before you attempt while(i>=0). I have hence added i-- before you run the loop.
See if the following does the trick.
public class Capi {

public static int num(int a) { // counting digits from the number
    int n = 0;
    while(a>=10) {
        a = a/10;
        n = n+1;
    }
    return n;
}

public static boolean det(int a, int n) {
    int z = a;
    double y = 0;
    n = n-1;
    int i = 0;
    int x[] = new int[n];

    for(i=0; i<x.length; i++) { // saving the digits into x[i]
        x[i] = a%10;
        a = a/10;
    }

    //i is now set to x.length, thus decrement it as index runs from 0 to x.length-1
    i=i-1;

    while(i>=0) {
        y = x[i]*Math.pow(10,n-1); // calling the digits x[i],x[i-1]   untill it gets 0
        i = i - 1;
        n = n -1;
    }

    double num1= y + a*Math.pow(10,n);
    if(num1 == z) {
        return true;
    }
    else {
        return false;
    }
}

}

Star Trek #10 (May, 1971)
Posted on March 6, 2021 by Alan Stewart
As I've mentioned in passing a time or two before on this blog, I didn't get to see Star Trek when it originally aired on the NBC television network from 1966 to 1969. Until 1970, we only had two TV stations in the Jackson, MS metro area; and although one of them was an NBC affiliate, it sometimes pre-empted that network's programming to carry something else (usually a program from ABC, the odd-network-out in our market). My maiden voyage upon the starship Enterprise would thus have to wait until reruns of the by-then-cancelled show started airing locally in syndication, probably sometime in 1970.
Once first contact was finally made, however, I immediately (and unsurprisingly, considering the other stuff I was into) became a big Trek fan. And I was keen to extend my enjoyment of the show through what we would now call ancillary media. The thing was, in 1970 and 1971, there wasn't a whole lot of licensed Trek story-product available.

The Man from U.N.C.L.E. #10 (January, 1967)
Posted on November 17, 2016 by Alan Stewart
"Batmania" may have dominated the pop culture landscape in 1966, but it was by no means the only thing going on at the time — not even within the smaller sphere of pop-cultural activity that was of special interest to nine-year-old boys such as myself. For one thing, there was also The Man from U.N.C.L.E.
The Man from U.N.C.L.E. (that's the United Network Command for Law and Enforcement, for those of you who don't already know, and yet might actually care for some reason), in addition to being something of a mini-phenomenon of its own, was of course also part of the larger wave of popularity of the "super-spy" genre in the early-to-mid-Sixties. The wellspring of this popularity was author Ian Fleming's James Bond, the hero of a series of espionage thrillers who'd debuted in 1953, but who'd really taken off (especially in the United States), when it was revealed that President John F. Kennedy was a fan. By 1966, the enormous success of Agent 007 had yielded a crop of imitators as well as variations on the "spy-fi" concept, including TV's spoof Get Smart and Western-spy-fi genre hybrid The Wild Wild West, not to mention comics' Nick Fury, Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D. and T.H.U.N.D.E.R. Agents series. Read More

Q: Number of Atoms in a Probability Space How could one show that the number of atoms in an uncountable probability space is at most countable?

A: Let $B$ be a set of positive real numbers. Then $B=\bigcup_{n=1}^\infty B_n$ where $B_n = \{ x \in B : x > 1/n \}$. Now
$$\sum_{x \in B} x \geq \sum_{x \in B_n} x \geq |B_n|/n.$$
So either $B_n$ is finite or else $\sum_{x \in B}$ is infinite. So if we assume that $\sum_{x \in B}$ is finite, then $B$ must be countable, because it is a countable union of finite sets.
I have proven that an uncountable sum of positive numbers is infinite. You can use this to derive your result.


One of the biggest brands in the world is getting ready to go online, and they're aiming to not win.
Sure, they've been online all along, but now it's become clear to them that the web is a real thing, and that a placeholder website and a few gimmicks aren''t sufficient. They're trying to generate online income and respect and audience.
Now, the choice: The safe thing is to organize to show. Showing up without glaring error and a major meltdown is something you can organize for. You say, "well, if everything goes well, we'll be in the top ten in our industry, and perhaps we'll hit the top three." In our industry. That means that when the overall global winners online are tallied up in a list at the end of the year, there's no way you're going to be on it. It means that the very things that made you one of the most powerful brands in the world will be missing, because all you're striving for is pretty good.
The challenge of shooting for a win is that it brings apparent risk with it. Not actual risk (the actual risk is in being mediocre, overlooked and on a slow death spiral) but apparent risk. The thing is that you overcame that risk when you built the original brand. You didn't set out then to be pretty good, good for your category, sort of important. You set out to matter.
So, Mr. Big Brand: organize to win. To do anything else is a waste of your time, your talent and your momentum. Ignore apparent risk, buy the assets you need to matter, avoid the compromises that your competitors have made and do something worth doing.

SpaceX to Coat Satellite With Non-Reflective Substance to Dull Brightness
SpaceX has been working with the American Astronomical Society for six months to figure out a solution.
By Donna Fuscaldo
3DSculptor/iStock
SpaceX's Starlink satellites are creating constellations of artificial stars in the sky, which astronomers worry will interfere with their data calculations and pollute the night sky.
In an effort to rectify it, SpaceX has been working with the American Astronomical Society for the past six months to come up with a solution.
RELATED: SPACEX SUCCESSFULLY LAUNCHES 60 STARLINK SATELLITES INTO SPACE
Non-reflective coating will be used on one satellite
One such solution will be tested on 6 January when a batch of 60 satellites are launched from Cape Canaveral Air Force Station in Flordia. The launch was originally slated for the 3 January but poor weather conditions prompted the date change. One of the satellites in the batch will have a non-reflective coating on the bottom.
"Despite all the complexities of how our community makes O/IR observations, we are working to see if we can develop a brightness level for them to aim at, and we are conducting a survey of research observatories to gather this information," wrote the American Astronomical Society in a early December update of its efforts with Tesla.
"The goal of Starlink is to provide worldwide internet service, an aspiration we do not want to impede, but this requires one to two orders of magnitude more low Earth-orbiting satellites (LEOs) than currently exist. We do not want to give up access to optical observations from the ground. Our group's task is to find a path forward that accommodates both uses of the sky."
Astronomers surprised by the brightness of SpaceX satellites
The satellites are necessary in order for SpaceX to realize its goal of providing Internet to the world. They have to be close enough to the planet and there needs to be thousands to provide the Internet to the remote corners of the world. To date, SpaceX is allowed to launch 12,000 satellites.
While its hard to see the satellites in the sky without telescopes, with instruments they are bright enough to get in the way of data calculations. "What caught everybody off guard was just how bright the initial launch was. It was pretty dramatic," said Jeffrey Hall, the director of the Lowell Observatory in Flagstaff, Arizona told the Oriental Sentinel.

••• The International Writers Magazine: Will You Still Love Me when I'm 85?
I was alone in our house in our Northern California retirement community. My wife Sally had gone to lunch with the "girls," none of whom were under seventy. I'd finished my own lunch, a tasteless sandwich, put away my plate and was sitting in our enclosed patio, feeling despondent. Why did I feel this way? I'd read that the late writer Norman Mailer didn't like people asking him how he felt because at his age how was he expected to feel but lousy and this was when he was only in his early eighties. I had turned 85 at the end of last year, which was now a month ago. 85. No wonder I felt despondent.
It had been an unusually rainy winter in California, although the State authorities were as usual reluctant to say our drought was over, maybe because then they'd lose their authority over our water use. The dreary weather didn't help. It was after two o'clock, so time to see if the mail had come. It was still drizzling so I decided to go through the garage and noticed that the rose fertilizer Sally was supposed to put out for Antonio was still on the table. Antonio was our gardener, more accurately our yardman, as I didn't think he knew much more about gardening than I did. I'd have to talk to Sally about the rose fertilizer; she was getting forgetful. So, for that matter, was I. It seemed much lighter outside and I saw that the drizzle had stopped and the sun was trying to break through the clouds.
I hadn't done anything outside in a couple of years. My back ached on and off and I didn't like to bend down. Still, I didn't have anything else to do so I thought I'd try to fertilize the roses. It was getting to February and Antonio wouldn't be coming until the next week. Besides my back, my balance wasn't too steady and Sally wasn't home. I'd have to be careful where I stepped. I pictured myself lying on my back in a bunch of weeds and unable to get up. It had happened to more than one person we knew. As a precaution, I put my cell phone in my pocket.
I found my old rake and cleared the dead leaves and other stuff from the bases of our six rose plants. I made sure not to trip over any roots in the ground. Then I poured the fertilizer out around each plant and used the rake to get it into the ground. Finally, I got the hose and watered the fertilizer in. By this time the sun had come through; it had gotten warm and I was almost sweating. I put everything away and repaired to my lazy-boy recliner in the bedroom. My back was killing me and I wondered if I had any pain pills left. I might take a shower after a while. Despite the physical pain, I was feeling a little bit better. It wasn't much, but I'd taken care of our roses and I'd see how they did when they started blooming in the spring.

Simple, easy to install and replete with enough space for all of your odds and ends, this setup will easily hide cords, match your decor and offer a range of compartments for more than a simple game system.
A home library doesn't have to cost the earth, nor does it have to be professionally installed. Here in this living room, the KALLAX features prominently, offering a space for vinyl records and books, as well as a neat shelf for the occupants to lean their chic artworks.
Do you need more wardrobe space? The handy Ikea shelf can definitely improve your organisation, in addition to ensuring your garments are categorised and easy to locate.
If of course you need a little professional assistance in building a completely new dressing room or robe, you can find an expert designer via the homify platform. Head over here and check it out!
Is your office looking a little worse for wear? Do your papers and filing system spew out papers into your working area and cause an array of clutter? If the answer is yes then you should consider some extra storage. Sure we all know the KALLAX works well as a shelf for books, but it can also assist by offering a space for boxes of papers, folders, and other workspace accessories.
Entrances are commonly messy places in the home. When we enter we take our shoes and jackets off, generally leaving them in the way of the door. With the shelf system placed neatly by the entrance, one can simply add their shoes, mail or clothing to a compartment, keeping the front door space clean and organised.
A child's room looks perfect when decorated neatly and brightly. This example shoes us how the KALLAX shelf can be implemented as a room divider, while also including plenty of space for toys, clothing and other baby accessories.
Do you have any other uses for the KALLAX shelf? Add your ideas below!

University Council tables proposal about makeup of search committees
by Larry Dendy
A proposed new policy governing the makeup of search and screening committees for deans will go back to the drawing board after the University Council tabled the measure following objections that it could exclude some faculty from serving on such committees.
At its Dec. 1 meeting, the council supported a request from Svein Oie, dean of the College of Pharmacy, that the policy be returned to the council's Faculty Affairs Committee, which had developed it. Oie noted that as presented, the policy could exclude a large number of pharmacy faculty who are not tenured or on tenure track from serving on search and screening committees.
The proposed policy required that a majority of members of a dean search or screening committee be tenured or tenure-rank faculty from the school or college for which a dean is being sought. The provost would appoint faculty from a list generated through an "open process that ensures consideration of any interested faculty" in the school or college.
Schools and colleges would provide the provost with a written procedure for how faculty would be nominated to committees. The procedure must allow all tenured and tenure-track faculty in the school or college to be considered for nomination.
Oie said that 45 percent of pharmacy faculty have "clinical" status and may not be tenured or be on tenure track. Other council members noted that faculty in other classifications, such as research or public service, also could not be eligible.
Prior to Oie's objection, the council had voted to accept an amendment offered by Bob Ratajczak, president of Staff Council, that the policy require that at least one staff member and one student be on the list provided to the provost.
David Shipley, Faculty Affairs Committee chair, said the committee will reconsider the policy in light of concerns expressed by Oie and Ratajczak.
The Faculty Affairs Committee was directed this past spring to draw up a policy on appointment of dean search and screening committees at the request of the Faculty Conference, a group of faculty interested in faculty governance matters.
The University Council also approved changing the name of the Daniel B. Warnell School of Forest Resources to the Daniel B. Warnell School of Forestry and Natural Resources. Richard Porterfield, dean of the school, said the new name better reflects the range of research and teaching in the school, and will strengthen student recruitment and fundraising. The name change was approved with the condition that any other school or college can use the term "natural resources" for current or future academic, research or extension programs and facilities.
In other action, Provost Arnett C. Mace Jr. presented new guidelines faculty must follow to request an extension of the tenure probationary period. The guidelines are for situations that are covered under the Family and Medical Act but do not necessarily result in the faculty member taking a formal leave of absence.
As presented by Mace, the guidelines would apply to such events as extended illness, disability, childbirth, death of an immediate family member or extended care of an ill child or immediate family members. Several council members asked that this list also include adoptions.
Requests for extensions must be approved by the faculty member's dean and by the provost before going to the board of regents for final consideration. Extensions will be limited to no more than two years.

Perfect for couples and manageable for first-timers, two-berth compact coachbuilts combine value and comfort – we look at three used motorhomes for sale
For those looking to make their first venture into motorcaravanning, compact coachbuilts make a lot of sense
Of course, compact coachbuilt motorhomes are by no means the sole preserve of first-timers.
Plenty of people, mainly couples, are more than happy with the layout and living arrangements, as well as how easy these 'vans are to drive.
But for those looking to make their first venture into motorcaravanning, compact coachbuilts make a lot of sense. 'Buy no bigger than you feel comfortable with' is the relevant adage.
So what is a compact coachbuilt? There's no official definition, but these days an overall length of 6m or less is generally accepted as 'compact'.
Here we are looking at three two-berth 'vans, we found at West Country Motorhomes in Swindon, all with a layout that is very popular in the UK.
There's a lounge towards the front, where both cab seats can be swivelled to face the settees, which in turn can be pulled together easily enough to make a transverse double bed. Each vehicle also has its washroom in the rear offside corner, with the kitchen across the back wall and a habitation door just beyond the rear axle.
There are, of course, specification differences, but they are certainly in keeping with the British penchant for living in our motorhomes (those in sunnier climes tend to do more living outside the confines of their vehicles).
They're all British-built, too, so replacement parts should be easy to source, and servicing is likewise similarly straightforward.
There's every chance they'll hold their value even better than most motorhomes, too.
And if these 'vans get you thinking, why not check out other used motorhomes for sale that sleep two?
As good as new – 2009 (09-plate) Elddis Sunseeker 115
Fancy something special?
Sunseeker is West Country's own special edition brand (a name it's used since 2004), based on Elddis's Autoquests.
Elddis's more belt-and-braces approach to making motorhomes is evident, even in comparison to the two other, older, models here.
But the extra equipment in a special edition like this does take the edge off things a little. Plus, you only have to look at the 'new and now' prices to see how well this has kept its value.
The 100bhp engine and five-speed gearbox may be a bit of a turn-off for some, but it copes better than you might expect in a vehicle like this.
Otherwise, the Sunseeker specification – ranging from a superior cooker and gas/mains heating and hot water to reversing monitor and more – are most welcome.
Other pluses include the fact that the first owner has taken the initial depreciation hit and sorted any possible new 'van glitches. The extras – such as the awning and bike rack – are welcome, too.
The cab keeps things basic, with a radio/CD player, steering wheel controls and walnut trim to the centre console.
Both front seats are on swivels, to enhance the lounge space when you face the twin settees, with a free-standing table nearby, stowed in the wardrobe.
Price now: £25,995
Price new: £30,000
Base: Peugeot Boxer
Engine: 2.2-litre, 100bhp
First registered: April 2009
Berths/travel seats: 2/2
Length/width/height: 5.7/2.2 (excluding mirrors)/2.77m
Extras: Bike rack, awning
MTPLM: 3300kg
Payload: 700kg
Plus points: Special edition upgrades, pristine order
Minus points: No passenger airbag
Value for money – 2003 (53-plate) Autocruise Starquest
From the original Autocruise company
When new, the Starquest was by some way the priciest of this trio – and some of that is reflected in a more opulent interior that's also a bit wider than its rivals.
Like the Sunseeker, this is a three-owner vehicle. Starquests of this era were built by Autocruise when it was an independent manufacturer (the marque is now owned by Swift), where it gained an excellent reputation in a relatively short space of time for the quality of its build as well as its after-sales service.
Slightly strangely, although the Starquest was on a 3300kg chassis, here it's been replated to 3500kg – that means an extra 200kg payload, before any extras.
The downside, for some, will be the older-generation Peugeot base. Even so, performance from that two-litre turbodiesel engine is actually quite perky.
The living quarters follow the same format as the other two, but somehow Autocruise has managed to make it all seem roomier, despite offering generally plusher materials.
For example, the washroom is relatively large, with a proper shower cubicle in the far corner as well as a fixed corner basin and a Thetford swivel-bowl toilet.
Engine: 2.0-litre, 86bhp
First registered: October 2003
Length/width/height: 6.09/2.23 (excluding mirrors)/2.8m
Extras: Reversing camera, Pioneer stereo with MP3
Plus points: Luxury fittings
Minus points: Heating and hot water are gas only
Super saver – 2003 (03-plate) Auto-Sleeper Nuevo
One of the UK's most popular small coachbuilts ... and it's an Auto-Sleeper
This is one of four pre-owned Auto-Sleeper Nuevos on the books at West Country Motorhomes at the time of writing, with two versions at this attractively low sub-£20k price point.
A highly popular little motorhome with the all-important Auto-Sleeper badge, vehicles such as this rarely disappoint.
It's had one former keeper, but this is a high mileage for a motorhome – although, of course, there will be a full base vehicle service before it goes to its next owner.
Bear in mind, though, the argument that motorhomes are based on commercial vehicles that relish doing the miles.
There are a few bits of DIY. Notably, the drinks locker has been part-adapted to carry plates, LED lights added throughout (with a remote dimmer control), extra hooks in the washroom and a grabhandle added just inside the habitation door. It's minor stuff, really, and doesn't detract from the original.
Overall specification is pretty high, although even Auto-Sleepers cuts the occasional corner. The Truma heater is gas and mains, but the hot water is gas only. And that swivel-bowl toilet has only a manual flush.
Overall, this is a proven popular two-berth that's well constructed and still has a lot to give its next owners.
First registered: March 2003
Length/width/height 5.42/2.18 (excluding mirrors)/2.78m
Extras: Nearside exterior-access locker
Plus points: Auto-Sleeper pedigree, a popular model, generally well made
Minus points: High miles
Vehicles are viewed and reported on as seen. Bear in mind that this is usually before any base-vehicle and habitation servicing, including any rectification work, before they go on to their next owners.
Dimension and payload figures refer to official measurements before the addition of any extras, unless stated otherwise.
Call ahead before making any visit to see a featured vehicle. Stock shifts fast!

Get Chaucer's General Prologue to the Canterbury Tales: An PDF
By Caroline D. Eckhardt
the final Prologue to Chaucer's Canterbury stories is likely one of the so much enduring works of English literature. liked by way of students, academics, scholars, and common readers, it's been given an outstanding many various interpretations. This annotated, foreign bibliography of twentieth-century feedback at the Prologue is a vital reference advisor. It contains books, magazine articles, and dissertations, and a descriptive record of twentieth-century versions; it's the such a lot whole stock of contemporary feedback at the Prologue. The wide annotations supply uniquely handy entry to many guides which are in a different way tough to obtain.
In her advent, Caroline Eckhardt offers a cautious and entire assessment of contemporary traits in feedback, traits which are traced in the course of the bibliography. in the beginning of the century, for instance, Chaucer's Prologue was once frequently defined as a 'portrait gallery' and praised for its realism - social, mental, and dramatic. Later within the century got here emphases on irony, rhetoric, Freudian interpretations, intricate allegories, and stylistic complexities. at the present, the Prologue is frequently interpreted as a approach of symptoms and emblems within which realism, if it exists in any respect, serves reasons past itself. The smiling and serene poet of the sooner interval has been changed by way of a self-conscious ironist, occasionally with a break up character. The portrait gallery of the start of the century remains to be there, although the spectator who walks alongside it has a tendency to work out whatever much less fastened textually (the Prologue is now normally mentioned as work-in-progress) and extra complex structurally, generically, and thematically. it's the spectator, in fact, who has changed.

My EPIC Childhood PC / Computer Games!
Computer has played an important role in my life. It has made me develop the attitude to be curious and never stop learning. As most of the kids, I got my first computer because I wanted to play games! Here, I would like to thank my father for giving me my first computer. It is only because of him that I have learnt a little bit about computers.
I got my first computer way back in 2002. Compared to today it was not even quarter as powerful as my present computer still it costed twice as much as it! Since then playing games has been a part my computer learning experience. I have played a lot of games till now but the following games which I am about to list has been a part of growing up and holds a special place in my heart. I hope this list of games will help you refresh your childhood memories and bring a smile on your face!
Dave was one of the games which I used to play most of the time. Collecting diamonds and hearts and then getting the cup in order to proceed with the levels was a fun task. Getting the gun and then killing the monsters was the most scary part.
One of the most famous game in computer history is Mario. I loved playing this game. My favorite part of this game was to jump on the tortoise and toss it to kill the other monsters. Getting the mushroom and growing bigger was the EPIC part of the game.
I don't know how many of you have played this game but I just loved this game. This game was very well designed and was very funny. One particular funny part of the game was the fat round guy who's pants used to fall off when you threw an apple towards him.
Though there are lot of sequels of this game these days, the original game was pretty much EPIC. It was a very tricky game, especially the jumps. You had to jump properly to proceed forward else you would fall and kill yourself. Drinking from the vessel to gain life was the most relaxing part for me!
The first racing game I ever played was Road Rash. It was a bike racing game which I played a lot. Snatching the chain or bat from others and then beating the other racers was one EPIC part. One of my favorite part of the game was the AV that the game showed after you won a race.
I played this game for hours. Dragunov was my favorite weapon as I could kill the enemy with one shot. The graphics of the game was amazing considering the year it was launched.
I still can't believe the developers designed this game way back in 2001! From normal enemies to ghosts, this game had everything. The levels were so complex and graphics were so amazing that I could still compare today's game with it. As a kid, this game was a little bit scary for me!
How could I end the list without listing my favorite game? If you haven't played Max Payne, get it from somewhere and play it. Everything about this game is EPIC. My favorite part fo the game is bullet time which is freaking awesome. For me, Max Payne series is my favorite third person shooter game.
So there you have it, a list of my EPIC childhood computer games. There is one game which I didn't list in this list. It was Call of Duty. The first Call of Duty game was released in 2003. The reason why I didn't list it on the list is just because it didn't run on my computer! It was a big disheartening moment for me as I was so excited to play it by looking at its cover! Though I played it later in my life.
So tell me, when did you get your first computer and which was your favorite game? Is there any game which I have missed? Do let me all of that in the comments section below.

What team has the best bench in the league?
Spurs, Lakers, Celtics, Cavs, Magic, Mavs, Bulls, Blazers, Nuggets, etc.
McGee, Blatche, Young, Stevenson, Oberto, Foye and Mike "GOAT" James.
Probably Magic after lewis gets back.... or L.a. tehy've played together a lot and they're pretty good.
I think it's a toss up between the Spurs, Cavs, Magic and Celtics for the best bench.
edit: ok wait, i think i messed that up. what i wanted to say was out of the teams, which are not elite.
Wow you think there bench is good thats funny.
magic, raptors have a decent bench too.
Ok, well let me see... Three of their bench players have started for their teams for the majority of their careers (Big Z, Moon, Delonte) and the other three are all valuable role players that provide different things that are key to a second unit (Gibson brings shooting, Powe brings a high energy, undersized banger and Hickson brings a big body who can hit the mid range jump shot).
its definitely the magic. see what they did to the sixers?
im glad even most lakers fans didnt pick their bench as the best and picked someone else.
Powe wont be back for a while so you can't really count him yet. Plus you don' really know how he is gonna return from the injury.
There is absolutely no question about it. Sin duda. MAGIC.
Does anyone think Shaq should come off the bench for the Cavs?
Nobody can touch Boston's bench.
I would say the Hawks' bench is better than the Bulls'. The Lakers have one of he worst benches in the league.
Nobody has a better bench than the Spurs. They got McDysse Ratliff and DeJuan Blair (the rookie out of Pittsburg that should have went top ten but dropped to the second round- he's been tearing it up), backing up Duncan and Bonner, and they got Ginobili and Roger Mason playing on the wing off the bench and George Hill, the sophomore, is probably the weakest link coming off the bench and he isn't too bad. They aren't deep at point guard, but their front court is stacked and they are solid on the wing.
Pietrus, JJ, J. Williams. Close call I think, The only two off Boston's bench that are remotely scary I think are Daniels and House. Tony Allen is terrible.
you're overrating the Jazz's bench dude.
Okay, okay I take that back. I just wasn't thinking at the time.
This I could agree to. Orlando doesn't have anyone that can quite provide what Sheed can and Daniels can be scary. But Orlando has more depth, so I guess it about evens out.
Bulls need some love with Hinrich and Miller off the bench.
Not sure but has the Jazz bench even been producing?
The Wizards have a decent bench: Andray Blatche, Javale Mcgee, Nick Young, Dominic Mcguire, Mike James, Randy Foye, Fabricio Oberto.
You may not like the Celtics but the reality is they have the deepest and best bench.
Celtics have the overall best bench.
Magic have the overall deepest bench.
They put their bench in, and their bench takes leads on other teams starting units. I think bostons bench has scored over 115+ pts in 5 games.
We won't know how good the Lakers bench is until Gasol comes back and Odom plays with the 2nd unit.
