Human coronaviruses are the major cause of upper respiratory tract illness. They are positive-stranded RNA viruses, and contain the largest viral RNA genomes known to date (27-31 kb). SARS (severe acute respiratory syndrome) and COVID-19 are both caused by human coronaviruses, SARS-CoV and SARS-CoV-2, respectively. The genome of SARS-CoV-2 shares 82% nucleotide identity with human SARS-CoV and 89% with bat SARS-like-CoVZXC21 (Lu et al., 2020; Zhou et al., 2020). However, initially it displayed lower pathogenicity and higher human to human transmissibility (Li et al., 2020). The coronavirus genome encodes four structural proteins: the spike (S) protein, nucleocapsid (N) protein, membrane (M) protein, and the envelope (E) protein. Cell entry is the first step in cross-species transmission and SARS-CoV-2 is likely to infect lung type II alveolar cells, which may explain the severe alveolar damage observed after infection (Zhao et al., 2020). Both SARS-CoV and SARS-CoV-2 uses the spike (S) protein to gain entry into host cells and it has been shown that the spike binds the entry receptor angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) on infected cells. It is predicted that SARS-CoV-2 recognizes human ACE2 more efficiently than SARS -CoV (Wan et al., 2020). Therefore, the S protein is considered a key target for vaccine development (Li et al, 2020).
This recombinant antibody binds to both SARS-CoV and SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) with high affinity; 86% of the epitope residues are conserved between SARS-CoV and SARS-CoV-2 (Tian et al., 2020; Yuan et al., 2020). The binding site is amino acids 318-510 (RBD, Receptor Binding Domain) in the S1 subunit of the Spike protein (Yuan et al., 2020). The antibody also binds to P462L-substituted S318–510 fragments of the SARS spike protein (Joyce et al. 2020). The crystal structure of this antibody has been resolved in complex with the RBD of the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein. The spike binding epitope is only accessible in the "open" conformation of the spike protein. The epitope can only be accessed by the antibody when at least two RBD on the trimeric spike protein are in the "up" conformation and slightly rotated (Joyce et al. 2020; Yuan et al., 2020). Antibody was originally isolated from a convalescent SARS patient, and is a neutralizing antibody that targets the receptor-binding domain (RBD) of SARS-CoV (ter Meulen, 2006). It did not neutralize SARS-CoV-2 in an in vitro assay, although it may show neutralisation in combination with other antibodies (Yuan et al., 2020). It has been shown to work synergistically in combination with antibodies that target the ACE2 binding site on the SARS-CoV RBD and reduce viral escape capacity. This antibody does not compete with ACE2 for binding to RBD, unlike most other known SARS RBD-targeted antibodies (ter Meulen, 2006). The epitope of this antibody does not overlap with the SARS-CoV-2 ACE2 binding site (Tian et al., 2020).

Yoga is defined as a mind and body practice that aims to enhance physical, emotional, and mental health. Meditation is a mental discipline that allows a person to transcend internally and reach a level of self awareness through concentrating and breathing. Practicing yoga and meditation together proves to be effective in promoting mental and physical wellness. The history of these practices can be traced back to religious organizations where meditation is highly associated with a spiritual journey. Presently, it is now used as a form of therapy by people who are plagued with physical and mental illnesses.
The use of yoga and meditation primarily started when people looked for ways to relieve work stress. People turn to relaxation techniques such as yoga and meditation as a solution. But these activities can provide more benefits other than relaxation. As more and more people discover the benefits of these practices, schools and gyms started to promote them to their members.
Modern styles of yoga have incorporated meditation in their routine. Originally, they are done separately but now there are schools that combine both to create an even more effective technique. When doing yoga and meditation together it is essential to synchronize one's movement, breathing, and concentration at the same time. It helps in enhancing both the physical and mental aspects of the body. A complete harmony of movement and breathing will free the mind from needless thoughts. Once the mind is free then the body will completely relax. The person will feel more peaceful and fit after the activity.
• Physical Fitness. People working in a regular office environment can greatly benefit from yoga. Working in an office promotes a sedentary lifestyle that will decrease muscle capacity, flexibility and strength due to the lack of activity. Bad sitting postures also worsen the body's integrity by weakening the bones and straining the muscles. Doing yoga regularly helps in keeping the body well oiled. There are movements that help build muscle, increase flexibility, and teach proper body posture.
• Stress Management. A prime benefit of learning yoga and meditation techniques is that it reduces stress responses to the body. A regular person is always besieged by pressure from work, job and the environment. This can lead to mental and physical illness. Regular meditation helps a person relax his mind from his worries. It reduces inflammatory responses when a person is overwhelmed by these thoughts. Learning to relax is an effective defense mechanism to stop anxiety.
• Emotional Boost. Aside from mental and physical benefits, practicing yoga can also improve a person's emotional well being. Regular yoga practitioners experience an uplifting emotion after finishing their routines. They feel more healthy and upbeat when doing yoga. Practitioners often describe their feeling as peaceful and happy. These results are attributed to the state of relaxation achieved when performing yoga and meditation. This positive disposition helps in boosting confidence and outlook of a person.
• Healthy Diet. Practicing yoga also introduces one to have better eating habits. Yoga increases awareness of personal health. This, in turn, inspires a person to choose foods that are nutritious and beneficial to the body.
The benefits of yoga and meditation are boundless. People from any age can enjoy its wondrous effects. It is indeed a lifestyle worth pursuing.
Ryan Rivera is a writer and owner of the site calm clinic. For the past years he also suffer from anxiety and other mental issues, but through the help of natural techniques such as yoga and meditation he was able to overcome the illness. He now dedicates his time helping other people who endures mental problems.

Q: Uncountability of real numbers between 0 and 1
Possible Duplicate:
Proof that the real numbers are countable: Help with why this is wrong

I know there are uncountably many real numbers between 0 and 1, and I am trying to figure out why this argument is wrong:
Proof that there are finitely many real numbers between 0 and 1:
Consider the string of digits after the decimal point.
We start with strings of length 0, then length 1, then length 2.
Each set of strings has only finitely many elements, so they can be numbered.
We will eventually reach every string by this process.
Therefore we can enumerate all the real numbers between 0 and 1.

There is no such thing as a perfect store and even Costco has its own flaws. Is it worth it to have a Costco Membership?
Overall, the biggest appeal of Costco is the huge savings and the biggest turn off is the crowd and this is due to the huge membership base. However, shopping is a personal preference and people have their own pet peeves when it comes to it. While some do not want to go through the crowd, you can still see a lot of people willing to do otherwise.
A perfect example would be the Black Friday crowd. Other people are willing to go in line, put up tents and wait in the cold for at least three hours so they can be the first one to get in the door and avail of the huge savings while others would rather pay for a higher price instead of dealing with the crowd.
I believe shopping at Costco works the same way. Here's a closer look at the advantages and the disadvantages of shopping at Costco.
As mentioned before, wholesale prices and low costs are the main attraction of Costco. If you are using non-perishable items on a monthly basis, buying quantities in bulk is a great way to save money. Most items that we purchase at Costco are household and personal effect items such as soaps, paper towels, toothpaste, detergents, deodorant, to, shampoo, paper products, bottled water, juices, school and office supplies, etc. We've also purchased big ticket items such as refrigerators, vacuums, and other electronics.
I like the fact that when we buy tires at Costco, we can shop inside the store while waiting for our car to be finished . We've also taken advantage of the various Costco gift cards which we use not just as a gift to someone but for personal as well. You can save as much as 20%. on purchase mostly to restaurants such as Elephant Bar, California Pizza Kitchen, Ruby's Diner, Coffee Bean & Tea Leaves, See's Candy, Jamba Juice, etc. Lastly, Costco also offers other discounted services such as insurance, travel, car shopping, banking, merchant services, investing, and other financial services.
For those who complain about the cost of Costco Membership, $55 is just a drop in the bucket for all the potential savings that you'll get. Some members actually get the cost of the membership back in the form of the 2% rebate offered by the Executive membership. In fact, just this year, our rebate is around $137, which pays for the $110 Executive Membership and some change. However, if people do not shop there a lot, I can see why people would have some problems paying for it.
On top of the wholesale prices, Costco also offers instant rebate and coupons. What I like about Costco is you do not have to cut the coupons. If you only use one coupon, it will automatically ring-up the other items with coupon discounts even if you do not hand out the coupon for that particular item. It really saves time and hassle. As for me, the coupon book is just list of items with current discounts or rebates that you can take look at.
With regards to the membership fees, they will refund your membership in full if you are not fully satisfied. When it comes to your purchases, they guarantee customer satisfaction on every product they sell with a full refund. Certain items such as televisions, projectors, computers, cameras, camcorders, iPOD / MP3 players and cellular phones must be returned within 90 days of purchase for a refund.
It is hard if the family does not have the discipline to budget their utilization. Once they see that they have a lot in stock, the tendency is to use everything in a week even if the stock is good for three weeks. This would probably apply more on food purchases. The other bad thing about buying in bulk is if products have an expiration date and you did not fully consume the products. Often times we ended up throwing stuff (such as food products, medicines, multivitamins) away because the items have already expired.
I carry all three main credit cards so I do not have a problem with this. However, a couple of times, I get stuck in a line where the person in front of me did not have enough cash and wanted to find out if they can use their VISA and/or MasterCard. It is an inconvenience to a lot of shoppers since not everybody carries the American Express card.
However, if you order online through Costco.com, you can actually use your Visa and Master Card to make your purchases.
I think Costco can have a big argument on this since they really are a wholesale store selling in stuff in bulk. But times have changed and they sell single items as well. At times I see people carrying just a couple of items such as a cheesecake or rotisserie chicken and yet they have to wait in line along with the people who have their full carts. Although you can see a few considerate people to let you go first, other customers just do not care.
One thing I hate about Costco is that it is always too crowded and the line is always long when you get to the cash register. They also do not have an express line so if you are just buying one item, forget it. As a wholesale store, Costco seems, in my opinion, to discourage people from buying few items. They probably want you to buy a lot so you can feel that waiting in line is well worth your time. In addition, parking is ridiculously bad especially on the older Costco stores.
In Costco's defense, I can see how they have made improvements as the new store in our area now has three lanes that has self-check out counters. In addition, they also have staff who scans your items before you even go to the register that speeds up the process as well.
A couple of years ago, my sister-in-law, who rarely goes to Costco decided to let the membership expired. However when she tried to renew it about six months from the previous expiration date, Costco was charging her for the whole year, which means that if she paid that time, it would only be good for just six months.
For example, if your card expired on June 2008 and you did not renew it until January 2009, the expiration date for that card does not reset to January 2010 but it would expire on the original sign up month of June. So in this case, it would actually expire on June 2009, thus, only giving you six months of membership benefits.
I'm not sure if this is the case or if they have changed their policy already but this happened just a couple of years ago. I believe that around 2008 or 2009, Costco was involved in a class action lawsuit with regards to renewal of membership policy and they ended up settling the case.
Since that class action lawsuit, Costco has changed their policy on the Costco membership renewals. If you renew your membership within two months after your membership expired, the effective start date of the renewal will be retroactive to the expiration date. On the other hand, if you renew your membership after two months from the expiration date, the new effective date will be the renewal date. This will extend the use of your membership for at least two months especially if you have not used your card after the expiration date.
In spite of all the headaches at buying at Costco, we continually do so because personally, the savings that Costco can bring more than outweigh all the disadvantages.


Half term week in Northamptonshire gave us the opportunity to go down to Cornwall to spend a few days with our daughter, son-in-law and grandchild. Ever the opportunist as far as SOTA is concerned, I was quick to suggest that I might be able to escape during our stay to activate a couple of summits and so allow a day for Bev to enjoy a one-to-one day with daughter Nic. This suggestion was readily accepted and so arrangements were made to activate High Willhays and Dunkery Beacon in order to grab the nearest two winter bonuses on offer. Even so, this meant a round trip of over 230 miles on the day.
I left Lostwithiel in Cornwall at 08:20 and dropped son-in-law Phil off at his work in Bodmin a quarter of an hour later. The roads were reasonable if rather damp, but once out onto the A30 and heading east it was evident that fog would cause me some delay and the combination of roadworks and slow lorries added further problems. Once in Okehampton, it was easy to find the right turn at the crossroads in the town centre, but I initially missed the further right turn in the direction of the station. Having corrected my error, the next problem was icy roads once I was outside the town boundary… apparently the military don't need such nambi-pambi assistance as road gritting and it was rather slippery and although the fog had cleared to a certain extent, it was still difficult to see which of the multitude of roads I should be taking. In the event I ended up following a 4WD vehicle and parking in a spot at New Bridge (SX595904) close to East Mill Tor at 09:55. This position turned out to be one track east of where I should have been (SX591906) according to the directions that I had received from John M0JDK via Paul G4MD. The handheld Garmin failed to work properly inside the car and one hand out of the window while driving over the potholed access road had definitely not been an option, so I was pleased to be reasonably close to where I had intended to be.
In order to ensure that I could find my car again, I waymarked the spot and then set off at 10:03 towards Yes Tor guided by John's track which was showing on my satnav out on my starboard side. Opposite the tor I traversed the heather and a small stream and joined the main track up to the summit and then turned south to High Willhays. The additional distance and traversing cost me a few minutes so I was not at the summit until 10:36, already past the time that I had posted for the activation. There was a desire to rush and activate 2m, but I resisted this and got all three bands set up. This was relatively easy in the light breeze, as I had chosen my position to take maximum advantage of the shelter provided by the rocky outcrop at the summit. As I was completing my set up operations, the first of a number of walkers passed by showing just how popular this part of Dartmoor is, even on a Monday.
Opening up on 2m at 10:58, I received a prompt response from Frank G3RMD and we QSY'd to 144.320MHz since my usual working frequency was in use by a very strong French station. Signals were reasonable though not spectacular into Cheltenham as the path was slightly obstructed. Frank kindly spotted me and the run continued with John M0JDK, who by contrast was well over S9 despite being considerably further away. In all I worked 13 on 2m SSB, the more unusual contacts being with Roger G4OCO in Newquay who advised that he has 70cms and 23cms capability, Graham G3OHC near York whom I used to speak to on a regular basis many years ago when he lived in Sutton Coldfield and Jon G4TSN/M on the M1 near Nottingham running 100 watts to a 5/8 wave vertical. Paul G4MD managed to make contact from his work QTH at Bristol despite the local QRM at his end.
At 11:45 I changed over to 70cms SSB and worked Don G0RQL, Graham G3OHC and Frank G3RMD in reasonably quick succession, with signals being very similar to 2m. The prized fourth contact on 70cms was not to be, so at 12:00 I advised Don G0RQL that I was moving to 23cms and came up on 1297.500MHz with the C710 handheld (280mW) linked to the 15 over 15 beam at 4.5 metres via a length of LMR400 semi-rigid coax. Signals were excellent - I was able to give Don 58 and he gave me 57. Don's power was 35mW to a 19 element yagi. We managed a chat before I tore myself away, though I did put a call out down towards Newquay before closing just in case Roger was listening. Unfortunately he wasn't.
After managing to dismantle the 3 band station in a near record 17 minutes, I set off at 12:27 and half an hour later was back at the car where I had a quick lunch before setting off for my second summit. The route north was via the A30, M5, A38 and the dreaded A396, the road up the Exe valley. A combination of slow vehicles and icy patches on this section prevented me from making up any time, so I did not arrive at the car park for Dunkery Beacon until 14:40 where I had to change batteries and get the kit ready for the second activation.
The route up Dunkery is a comparative motorway and despite a few brief stops en route, I was at the beehive cairn on the summit in 22 minutes. After a quick reccy I decided to set up on a small hump to the south west of the cairn, this time leaving the 23cms beam off the pole as the wind was now quite fierce and somewhat colder than earlier in the day. I opened up on 2m at my predicted delayed time of 15:30 and this time Don G0RQL was ready waiting. We moved to 144.333MHz, my usual frequency and Don kindly spotted me. The run of 12 contacts on 2m were with regular chasers with the exception of Malcolm 2W0END located at Newbridge, 20 miles North of Cardiff. At 1600 I announced a move to 70cms where I worked Don G0RQL, Frank G3RMD and Matt M3WDS in quick succession, but again no fourth contact. Don and I moved up to 23cms and although I had to hold the 15 over 15 above my head, we managed to make contact with signals 41 both ways. I had visions of Don jumping about in his shack, such was the exuberance that clearly came over the air.
Before packing up, I tried a few calls out on 433.500MHz FM, but to no avail. Some local repeaters were in use, but I was not in a hi-jack mood, so at 16:25 I started to dismantle the kit. After taking a few photos it was a quick romp down the hill to decant everything into the car, have a bite to eat and set off back down to Cornwall.
Thank you for an interesting report, as usual. Good to have some activity on 432 SSB. Good fun!
Thanks for the activation and a great report Gerald,very pleased to make that first contact on 23cms,not on one but both activations on the same day(still jumping).I have operated 23cms for a few years now but only on ATV which has a 6mhz sub carrier for sound so not true two way contact as we made.
The TS2000 has now been returned from the factory the 23cms unit installation complete so now qro with 10w,a bit different from 35mw.Will continue to use the Sandpiper 19 ele for a while as it doubles with the ATV which requires considerable broadbanding due to the tx/rx frequency split.
Lets hope 2/70/23 activations and chasing increases in 2008.73 Don G0RQL.

I went out for a spontaneous late-night snack with my girlfriend last night. We tried out YesYesYes, which I really liked! It's a vegetarian restaurant/ bar with delicious snacks and foods. I think it became a new favorite of mine! That rarely happens since I usually stick to old patterns once I go out. I highly recommend trying it out. Although, it seemed like I was the last one on the ball considering how full it was yesterday. Lovely and lively atmosphere and the halloumi fingers were to die for!
This weather though, how perfect can it be?Today we're going shopping for the kids and picking out a birthday gift for a friend of ours who's birthday party we are attending later today. Family themed weekend continues. It's been wonderful.

The next morning, the Dutch parentials, Robb and I jumped on Dutch-quality bikes and round around town. Robb and I hoped to enjoy cool, autumn weather as we had spent the entire summer in tropical Vietnamese humidity. But no such luck. We ended up experiencing an unexpected heat wave going through Europe!
It was an enjoyable ride along the Berkel river and stops De Dikke Boom van Verwolde (the thick Verwolde tree) and castles. It was nice to ride a bicycle again. It had been a while and especially on peaceful roads and surrounded by greenery.
We did a whole lot of nothing while in Laren. I got to walk Dede a few times, and even had a run-in with other neighborhood dogs. We went to a local backyard house party. We ate plenty of Dutch pastries and meats.
Being back in Laren and Europe in general made me realize that it's a nice place to live… when I'm a bit older. I still need to brush up on my [non-existent] Dutch.

Top Chef Season 7: Foreign Affairs, Episode 8
Jacquelynn D. Powers
Jacquelynn D. Powers | August 5, 2010 | 10:55am
Can we just skip this middling episode and embrace the fabulousness that is Restaurant Wars next week? The preview looks like the drama-filled, make-it-or-break it moments Top Chef is celebrated for. So excited.
In the meantime, with the exit of Andrea Curto-Randazzo (goodbye, Miami gal), we were left to ponder the remnants of Pea-Gate. Accused cheftestant Alex was still sticking to his guns that he made his winning pea purée during the last Elimination Challenge: "I had no idea that Ed had a pea purée. I really don't care what anyone else thinks. I feel good. I won the last challenge. I want to get out there. I want to cook. I want to win."
Ed didn't seem too indignant by the potential thievery: "I'm not angry about the pea purée. I'm more confused. Did somebody take it or did somebody throw it away? I'm perplexed. Now I'm just trying to focus on moving on."
I cheered when I saw Top Chef Masters winner Marcus Samuelsson next to Padma. The always-stylish Samuelsson introduced the Quickfire Challenge, which had the cheftestants making a dish inspired by Ethiopian cuisine. Samuelsson introduced a few Ethiopian cooking staples to the crew, including berbere spices; injera, a sourdough, pancake bread; and wat, a spicy stew.
According to Angelo, "The challenge is not to overdo it with the spices." What, no Asian food? Apparently, our randy chef had consulted for an Ethiopian restaurant and had a leg up on his competitors. Kenny had dabbled in Ethiopian cuisine too. The remaining women -- Kelly, Tiffany, and Amanda -- seemed clueless when it came to Ethiopian food, though.
During the tasting, Alex's tongue concoction was called out by Padma for not being spicy enough, while Kelly was complimented for her seasoning. Kenny, unsurprisingly, prepared a duo of lamb. Does he know how to do only duos? Angelo was given the ultimate compliment by Marcus, who said, "Are you sure you weren't born Ethiopian?"
The least favorite chefs were Kevin ("too shy, not bold enough"), Stephen ("the lamb meatballs were not that juicy"), and Alex, whose tongue stew was too dry. The favorites were Amanda ("absolutely fantastic"), Angelo ("your dora wat was absolutely beautiful"), and Tiffany ("hearty flavors"). Ultimately, Tiffany won her first Quickfire Challenge and immunity. Ed's cattiness came out when he noted, "She beat Angelo. That's the best part."
For the Elimination Challenge, the cheftestants were given a choice of nine countries in order to prepare a meal for 100 diplomats, ambassadors, and royal dignitaries. The catch was that there would be no electricity -- only chafing dishes -- at the venue. Most of the chefs were able to select their favorite cuisines (based on a knife draw): Tiffany (Mexico), Amanda (France), Alex (Spain), Kelly (Italy), Kevin (India), Kenny (Thailand), and Ed (China). Mr. Asian, Angelo, pretended to take Brazil but went for his comfort level with Japan. That left Stephen with Brazil, a country whose cooking style he was not familiar with.
Ed, on the other hand, seemed to base his knowledge on Chinese cuisine on the fact that he had "several Chinese girlfriends in the past." OK, then. The cheftestants seemed to rise to the task with some innovative dishes. Kelly, Tiffany, Angelo, and Kenny were on a good course with the challenge, while Alex was literally flailing about in the kitchen, and Stephen seemed lost. It all went to shit for Stephen at the Meridian House, where his rice spent too much time in the chafing dish. Amanda, too, suffered from dry beef, and her solution was to cut it into smaller pieces, something for which she was criticized during the judging.
Speaking of judges, how dapper did Marcus look in that hat? Another guest judge was one of Spain's most famous chefs, Jose Andres. (Where, oh where, art thou, Eric Ripert?) I knew Jose would find fault with Alex's Spanish-inspired plate of braised veal with red wine sauce, olive salad, and torta. Stephen, too, was derided for his mushy rice and overcooked beef.
Onto the Top Chef commercial interlude, which seems to be salacious just to be salacious. This week, we were treated to a prank as Angelo covered the toilet with plastic wrap in order to have Stephen spray himself. How old are we?
At Judge's Table, Kelly, Kevin, and Tiffany were the top three. Tiffany said, "I treated this like I didn't have immunity." And everyone loved her chicken tamales, especially Tom, who noted, "The dish made perfect sense." Kevin, who had never before made Indian cuisine, was praised for his tender braised chicken. And though everyone adored Kelly's subtle beef carpaccio, Tiffany was declared the winner. She also received a surprise bonus of $10,000. "My wedding is paid for," Tiffany enthused. And all was right again in the world of reality TV.
Alex, Stephen, and Ed weren't so giddy. I was shocked Amanda wasn't called in for her disastrous dish, but I guess they want to keep this controversial character on the air for a few more episodes. Instead, every aspect of Stephen's dish was picked apart while Alex's veal was called a "little nightmare" by Jose Andres. Ouch. Ed was accused of overpromising and underdelivering, which meant he was safe for the night. And buh-bye, Stephen.
Next week is Restaurant Wars, and I can't wait for this culinary showdown.

Albion Millennium Green
Nature Diary
A PEACEFUL AREA OF WOODLAND AND MEADOW IN THE HEART OF FOREST HILL
At Year's End
December 31, 2021 Jorella Andrews
The end of year on the Green is somewhat waterlogged but there is much to celebrate.
Thank you to everyone who enjoys the Green, and to our Friends, Trustees and other volunteers, for collectively making the Green a safe and refreshing haven over the last year. We are also grateful for the ongoing support we receive from Lewisham Council's Nature Conservation team and those working for Greenscene, from Nature's Gym, and many others.
This October we again received a Green Flag Community Award. In addition, despite C-19, we safely hosted a film production company on the Green and, in June, the Teatro Vivo performance, "Tales from the Common". We commissioned local artist Walter Hayn to create a set of drawings documenting the event. They are so evocative and are visible in a previous blog post.
Finally, we are pleased to have secured funding from the Kenneth White Legacy Award for "Birds, Bats, Butterflies and Bees: Albion Millennium Green Biodiversity Project" which will run over 2022. As part of this project, we will build and install bird and bat boxes. We are hoping to hold a community butterfly identification event in Spring 2022 facilitated by Big City Butterflies, a new butterfly conservation project. We will make further information available in due course so that anyone who wants to be involved, can be.
Best wishes to all for a happy and fulfilling 2022.

Q: Default button hit in windows forms (trying to find the best solution) The question is: How to make default button be focused on form focus and response on "Enter" hit, but not focused when the caret is in textbox with multiline property set to true for example?..I know that i can do some exceptions in code, but maybe there is some "best practices" i dont know for now :(
thank you

A: (edit - the answer here is very good for TextBox; this pattern might be useful for other controls that lack the AcceptsReturn or equivalent)
You can use the GotFocus and LostFocus events to change the AcceptButton fairly easily, for example:
[STAThread]
static void Main()
{
    Application.EnableVisualStyles();
    TextBox multi, single;
    Button btn;
    using(Form form = new Form {
            Controls = {
                (multi= new TextBox { Multiline = true, Dock = DockStyle.Fill}),
                (btn = new Button { Text = "OK", Dock = DockStyle.Bottom,
                    DialogResult = DialogResult.OK}),
                (single = new TextBox { Multiline = false, Dock = DockStyle.Top}),
            }, AcceptButton = btn
        })
    {
        multi.GotFocus += delegate { form.AcceptButton = null; };
        multi.LostFocus += delegate { form.AcceptButton = btn; };
        btn.Click += delegate { form.Close(); };
        Application.Run(form);
    }
}

A: A Windows Form has two properties: AcceptButton and CancelButton. You can set these to refer button controls on your form. The AcceptButton tells which button should be clicked when the user presses the enter key, while the Cancel button tells which button should be clicked when the user presses the escape key.
Often you will set the DialogResult of the AcceptButton to DialogResult.OK or DialogResult.Yes and DialogResult.Cancel or DialogResult.No for the CancelButton. This ensures that you can easily check which button was clicked if you dispay the form modally.

A: Maybe I got you wrong, but what I would do is:

*

*Set the "AcceptButton" of the form
to the Button you want to respond on
"Enter"

*Set the "AcceptsReturn" of
the textbox with multiline to true

et voila

A: or you can do it in de focus event of your textbox as in
_targetForm.AcceptButton = _targetForm.btnAccept;

and then ubind it in the other textbox with multilines

A: on Form_Load, set
this.AcceptButton = buttonName;

A: Do as following:
private void Login_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    this.AcceptButton = btnLogin;
}


Specializing in Catfishing and live bait fishing for Stripers and Smallmouth Bass on Pickwick and Wilson Lakes on the Tennessee River.
612 Clark St, Muscle Shoals, AL, U.S.A.
Follow Brian Barton Outdoors Fishing Guide today to get updates, news, and reports. Try it.
Trophy Trip - We target 25 pound and larger fish on this trip. This means slower fishing with much larger baits. A client can expect fewer bites and catches but fish in the 60 to 70 pound range are possible, with 40 to 50 pound fish common. Prime season for a trophy outing is mid September to mid December, February and March.
Regular Trip - We go catfishing. This trip is designed to use whatever baits, tactics, locations, etc. are currently producing the most action. The purpose is for the angler to catch as many fish as possible of whatever sizes are avaliable at that time. We use a diverse range of baits (including jigs and spoons at times) and techniques centered around the skill level of the angler. This is the trip if you want to carry fish home for the freezer.
Catfish 101 - This is what I collectively call " Catfish School". After 35 years of catfishing I have discovered an aresnal of tactics that can be used at different times of the year, water, weather conditions, etc. to catch fish. This is a FULL day on the water that is dedicated to the many different ways to catch cats. The purpose of this package is to give the cleint in a day what it has took me over 35 years to learn. We go over several types of rigging, how to choose the proper bait for the proper time, visit multiple structures on the lake and use electronics to identify items you can find on your home lake. Learn how to use hair jigs, spoons, and other lures to catch cats. I also offer basic trotlining, how to set limb lines, jugging, and other alternative methods of catching catfish. This is truly the best deal you will ever get if you just want to learn more about catfishing. If you choose to take this package make sure to bring along a tape recorder, notebook, video camera or all the above.
Live Bait fishing - Fishing live shad minnows or shiners for Stripers and Smallmouth Bass below Wilson and Wheeler Dams.
Extra clothing - Allow for temperature changes and rainfall.
Food or Drinks - Bottle water will be provided.
Cooler with ice for fish. Each person is allowed to keep 10 fish under 10 lbs. Any fish over 10 lbs. well be released!Fish cleaning fee extra.

Ry Cuming (* in Angourie, New South Wales), auch bekannt als Ry X, ist ein australischer Musiker.

Biografie
Ry Cuming stammt von der Ostküste Australiens und wuchs in der Gegend um Byron Bay auf. Mit 18 Jahren warf er seine Ausbildung hin und reiste nach Zentralamerika. In Costa Rica wurde er 2006 von einem US-amerikanischen Regisseur entdeckt und nach Los Angeles geholt. Er arbeitete an seiner Musikkarriere und veröffentlichte 2010 sein Debütalbum bei Jive Records. Es wurde von John Alagía produziert und Sara Bareilles gehörte zu seinen Gesangspartnern auf dem Album. Obwohl er danach auch bei Auftritten von Künstlern wie Maroon 5 oder Phantom Planet im Vorprogramm spielte, gelang ihm der Durchbruch nicht.

In Europa machte er erstmals 2012 zusammen mit dem Produzenten Frank Wiedemann von Âme auf sich aufmerksam. Dieser nahm sich sein Lied Howling vor und machte daraus ein erfolgreiches Elektro-Stück mit Cumings Gesang. Daraus entwickelte sich das gemeinsame, nach dem ersten Song benannte Elektroprojekt Howling.

Im Jahr 2013 unterschrieb er beim schwedischen Label Dumont Dumont, wo er eine Solo-EP unter dem Künstlernamen Ry X veröffentlichte. Das Titellied Berlin wurde für die Werbung entdeckt und im Werbespot für ein neues Fernsehgerät eingesetzt und konnte sich danach in Frankreich, England und Deutschland, wo der Spot ausgestrahlt wurde, in den Charts platzieren.

The highlights in issue 02/22 (Mar/Apr) are Thermoforming / Rigid packaging and Additives / Masterbatches. Basics: Plastic or no plastic - that's the question
I recently read an essay in The New Yorker called "In A World On Fire, Stop Burning Things" that resonated with me a lot. While the article did not touch on the issues of our industry specifically (e.g. plastic pollution or bioplastics vs. fossil-plastics) it did touch on the issue that goes far beyond – climate change, or I should rather say the climate crisis. The key message that Bill McKibben, author of the essay, tries to bring across is that we can switch from fossil to renewable energy right now – and that it would be cheaper long term to boot.

According to the industry association European Bioplastics (EUBP), Berlin Germany, global production capabilities for bioplastics will almost double in 2022 and are estimated to reach 2 % of global plastic production by 2026. Both the market and end consumers are increasingly demanding more sophisticated material and end applications. As a result, bioplastics are and will continue to play an important role in the development of a circular economy and a decisive role in reaching the Green Deal objectives. That is why bioplastics are definitely part of the solution.

Material manufacturer Covestro (Leverkusen, Germany) and biotechnology pioneer Genomatica (San Diego, California, USA) announced an important industry milestone to advance sustainability resulting from their partnership. The two companies have teamed to be the first to successfully produce significant volumes of a 100 % plant-based version of the chemical raw material HMDA (hexamethylene diamine).
New compostable mineral fillers & black masterbatches
Committed to sustainable innovation and circular economy
Unique antistatic ingredient for bioplastics
There are different types of static charge control additives for polymers: these are permanent, internally added, and externally applied, depending on the level of performance and application. Croda Smart Materials ((Snaith, UK) offers all three of them.
Masterbatches with soil improving pigments
Colouring plastics is a standard procedure throughout the industry, but what if instead of simply getting the desired colour of an application a colour masterbatch could have an added value on its own?
Home compostable 3D printing filament
Within its work on the European Nenu2phar project, Elixance (Elven, France), a company specialized in the elaboration and production of masterbatches and compounds, has developed a compostable 3D printing filament based on PHA. The R&D department formulated two types of filaments to cover a large field of applications: a rigid filament, and a more flexible one. The objective was to develop a fully biodegradable filament without losing the performance of a petroleum-based plastic like, e.g. TPE, ABS.

W e are sure that many of our readers know TECNARO or have at least heard about the company from Isfeld, Germany. Who does not know the term 'liquid wood'? Who has never seen the picture of the famous loudspeaker housing?
About reducing the fossil fuel addiction via compostables
From a historical perspective, it is quite remarkable to see how geopolitical events can have an unexpected influence on the way we deal with our materials.
Bioplastic Feedstock Alliance new guidance
The Bioplastic Feedstock Alliance, the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) (Gland, Switzerland) led initiative to advance thought leadership on responsible biobased plastic, released an updated methodology for guiding responsible sourcing decisions.
Plastic or no plastic – that's the question
Initially announced as a Basics article, this turns out to be more an opinion article. However, this article shall serve as food for thought. I explicitly encourage stakeholders in this topic to share their opinion with us. Maybe we can publish a kind of "Pro – Con" article in one of the upcoming issues.
Brand-Owner's perspective
on bioplastics and how to unleash its full potential
In March 2022, Hendrik Müller – General Manager Huhtamaki Foodservice Germany Sales GMBH & Co. KG Alf, Germany says:
When Zero-Waste meets 3D printing
GREENFILL3D – a Polish start-up (located in Łódź) operating on the edge of ecological, biodegradable materials, and 3D printing, announces the premiere of its unique filament based on wheat bran – GF3D Branfill3d.
There are no silver bullets but this one has a pretty shine
Since I joined bioplastics MAGAZINE in a bigger capacity about two years ago I came across one material that just sounded too good to be true – the UBQ™ material. The premise of taking mixed municipality waste (or municipality solid waste – MSW) and turning it into plastic material without the need for separation lies somewhere between an oil sheikhs' fever dream and an environmentalist's wet dream.

El Mes de María es un período de conmemoración en la Iglesia Católica. En el hemisferio norte, suele corresponder con el mes de mayo, mientras que en el sur se celebra en noviembre y parte de diciembre.

Historia
La celebración de un mes especial de advocación mariana surgió en tiempos del rey Alfonso X de Castilla, en que se mandó rogar a la Virgen durante las ceremonias del Palo de Mayo. El mes escogido guarda relación con el apogeo de la primavera. Para el siglo XVI se difundió el opúsculo conocido como Mayo espiritual, difundido en regiones de Alemania e Italia, que asienta la idea de conmemorar este mes de manera especial a la Madre de Dios. A principios del siglo XVIII, los jesuitas componen las primeras codificaciones de rezos y cánticos para la conmemoración del mes. Los papas Pío VII y Pío IX fueron grandes impulsores de la celebración de esta fiesta, premiándola con indulgencias.

Dado el carácter mariano de la evangelización, en América es posible que la conmemoración del mes fuese realizada desde el principio. Puesto que en el hemisferio sur el mes de mayo cae en otoño, la celebración se habría trasladado a noviembre, que es el equivalente en esa parte del mundo (inverso a mayo). Con todo, también alcanza a los primeros días de diciembre, buscando coincidir con la fiesta de la Inmaculada Concepción (8 de diciembre).

Celebración por país

Argentina
Comienza del 7 de noviembre y finaliza el 7 de diciembre, en Vísperas de la Solemnidad de la Inmaculada.

Chile
Se inicia el 08 de noviembre y se extiende por un mes, hasta el 8 de diciembre, fecha que coincide con la celebración de la Inmaculada Concepción. Durante todo el mes se busca obsequiarle flores a la Madre de Dios, contemplar y meditar sobre su vida y rezar las oraciones dedicadas a Ella

Dado el carácter mariano del comienzo de la evangelización, no parece exagerado afirmar que la devoción existiera desde el principio.

Sin embargo, el origen de la estructura que tiene hoy el Mes de María se debe al entonces rector del Seminario Pontificio de Santiago (más tarde obispo auxiliar de esa ciudad), monseñor Joaquín Larraín Gandarillas, quien señaló la manera de prepararse a la definición del dogma de la Inmaculada Concepción por el beato Pío IX mediante la bula Ineffabilis Deus del 8 de diciembre de 1854 —es probable que Larraín conociera la costumbre europea y ubicó la celebración del Mes de María desde el 8 de noviembre al 8 de diciembre como manera de dirigirse a la Virgen—. Las oraciones compuestas para dicha ocasión son las que se siguen rezando hasta hoy, y son una tradición para los fieles católicos, junto con el canto del «Venid y vamos todos (con flores a María)».

Venezuela
Se celebra desde el 1 de mayo hasta el 1 de junio.

Colombia
También se celebra desde el 1 de mayo hasta el 1 de junio. Como en el de Venezuela.

so hanging out at scott's is fun. HAPPY BIRTHDAY SCOTT! yeah. smelly mollusk that he is, scott is 24 today. we went out last night to a bar that played a ton of late 80s/ early 90s music, so it pretty much turned into scott's friends having our own little sing-along. good times. last night before the celebrations i bought a $5 shirt that says "grows power/ aventurea lover of adventure/ direction the car drove/ direction of toward the coast." it's very cute, and it amuses me. i kindof identify with it. what with the adventures of the summer and all..
just kindof thought that was interesting, given that i am going back to miami on tuesday. a place that has not exactly been frustration-free for me. though it's possible that frustrations might not come from miami. i have a tendency to frustrate myself, so maybe i should be watchful of that. grant me the patience.. to calm the heck down and stop thinking so much. and also the focus to start really working on the things i want and need to focus on.

About PSDI Partners and Funding Work With Us
PSDI is a regional technical assistance program undertaken in partnership with the Government of Australia, the Government of New Zealand, and the Asian Development Bank.
Since 2007, PSDI has worked to alleviate poverty and promote economic growth in the Pacific region through reforms that reduce the constraints to doing business and promote inclusive growth, entrepreneurship, and new business models.
The support of the Australian and New Zealand governments has enabled PSDI to assist with more than 300 reforms.
Why is PSDI needed?
For any country to achieve sustainable and inclusive economic growth that increases formal employment, investment, and entrepreneurship, and reduces poverty, a robust and vibrant private sector is necessary. This is a challenge in the Pacific, as isolation, small market size, and inadequate infrastructure make doing business difficult.
PSDI is needed because these intractable problems are often compounded by preventable ones, such as outdated laws, limited access to credit, overbearing public sectors, and poor competition. These preventable impediments to private sector-led growth further reduce productivity and prosperity, harming long-term growth. And it is these PSDI helps governments and the private sector to overcome.
What is PSDI's goal?
The overall goal of PSDI is to reduce unnecessary costs of doing business in the Pacific and enable private sectors to formalize and grow, which creates jobs, increases tax revenues, and lifts people out of poverty.
To achieve this, PSDI helps Pacific countries address the problems outlined above through its five focus areas. The specific goals of the focus areas are to:
Modernize business laws
Develop better financial markets and services that increase access to finance
Reform state-owned enterprises and pursue public-private partnerships
Establish effective competition and consumer protection frameworks
Advance the economic empowerment of women.
What private sector challenges does PSDI work to address?
PSDI works to improve the business environments of Pacific countries through reforms addressing challenges in five areas:
Outdated business laws and unnecessary regulations. Business laws in Pacific countries are often unsuited to the needs of modern commerce. In many countries, starting a business involves high costs and long delays, which have an especially adverse effect on smaller businesses. In addition, overly burdensome regulations impose significant costs on business. This compromises investment and business growth and contributes to Pacific countries having small formal business sectors and large informal ones, which contributes to low productivity and reduced tax revenue for governments.
Limited access to finance. Many Pacific island economies have underdeveloped financial markets because of weak institutions and lack of scale. But unless investors, entrepreneurs, and viable businesses can be financed, opportunities go to waste and growth potential goes unrealized.
Inefficient state-owned enterprises. In many Pacific countries, state-owned enterprises provide essential services such as power generation, water, sewage, and telecommunications. But they are often inefficient, draining government resources and providing low returns, as well as providing costly, low-quality services that increase the costs of doing business. Where state-owned enterprises are monopoly service providers they can also crowd out potential investment from the private sector.
Dysfunctional or non-existent competition and consumer protection frameworks. Confronted with small and concentrated markets, extensive participation by governments in domestic economies, and a few firms' dominance of key markets, competition policies in most Pacific countries struggle to break monopolies or level the playing field. But when competition and consumer protection is weak or non-existent, consumers have less choice and pay more, and micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises are constrained.
Barriers to women's full economic participation. A lack of awareness of business processes, limited access to finance, support and training, along with discriminatory laws and customary practices results in Pacific women not engaging in business to the same extent as men. Along with holding women back from realizing their potential, this means they are prevented from contributing fully to the private sector, community welfare, and economic growth.
How is PSDI support provided?
When Pacific countries request PSDI assistance, and a reform program has been agreed upon, PSDI support is delivered through technical assistance, capacity development, and intensive reform implementation support. Legislative reform, for example, will typically commence with diagnosis and analysis, followed by policy design, and concluding with the introduction of new laws or legal instruments.
Independently, and in support of specific reforms, PSDI experts regularly conduct in-depth analyses of Pacific business environments and the unique economic, political, and cultural issues and challenges facing each Pacific country. These analyses identify business constraints and opportunities, and inform policy dialogue with Pacific governments and private sectors. This insight and discourse facilitates the development of policies to overcome the challenges identified and improve the business climate in support of inclusive economic growth.
How is PSDI unique?
PSDI is committed to country-led development. The following aspects of PSDI facilitate its capacity to deliver demand-driven support in response to requests from Pacific countries.
Flexible and fast. A key feature of PSDI is its ability to respond rapidly and support reform opportunities when requests for assistance are received. PSDI's flexible program design allows it to mobilize expertise quickly when support is needed, to demobilize should political commitment to reform wane, and to pick up where the process left off when countries are ready to re-engage. This flexibility also allows PSDI to allocate resources where the need and political will for business environment reform is greatest and will be most effective.
Regional and responsive. Working across the Pacific allows PSDI to accrue knowledge and learn from experience gained undertaking similar reforms in various countries. Meanwhile, its adaptable approach allows it to sequence, prioritize, and design reform measures according to the political commitment and existing institutional capacity of each country. Together, this insight and flexibility ensures PSDI-supported reforms are informed through regional experience while remaining responsive to countries' individual needs and local conditions.
Established and long term. Since its inception, PSDI's core team of highly qualified, deeply experienced experts has built the trust and confidence of Pacific governments. As change processes can be complex and reform initiatives often require several years to design and implement, these relationships are a pre-requisite to reform success. Strong partnerships with key bilateral and multilateral partners, meanwhile, ensure reform interventions are coordinated and harmonized.
Another benefit of PSDI's longevity is its record of achievement, with successful reforms in one country often motivating others to follow suit. Ongoing awareness-building and advocacy with policy-makers, the private sector, civil society, and the media fosters understanding of the benefits of business environment reform and awareness of opportunities to pursue it.
Complementary and interdependent. PSDI's five focus areas provide a range of interconnected support that works together to develop dynamic provide sectors. For example, business law reform initiatives facilitate access to finance mechanisms; state-owned enterprise reforms and public-private partnerships pave the way for enhanced competition; and through considered implementation, all PSDI activities promote the economic empowerment of women.
What are PSDI's key successes?
Key PSDI achievements include:
Secured transaction frameworks established in ten countries, making it easier for lenders to accept movable assets, such as vehicles, inventory, accounts receivable, and crops, as collateral for loans, and resulting in the number of secured loans issued more than tripling, on average. PSDI has also supported the commercial transformation of government owned banks and strengthened the capability of retirement funds to finance long-term domestic.
Increased business formation, investment, and trade through a sustained effort to reform business laws across Pacific countries. The establishment of online business registries in five countries has dramatically increased the rate of company formation. This has made new investments possible and spurred formal economic activity and job creation.
SOE reforms that have more than doubled the profitability of infrastructure SOE portfolios in five countries. Improved governance frameworks and support for privatizations and public–private partnerships has further advanced this agenda, while advocacy and transparency initiatives have articulated the benefits of reform and made performance results more accessible.
Establishing or strengthening competition and consumer protection safeguards, with assessments of competition and regulatory frameworks undertaken in seven countries, competition policies or laws supported in three countries, and dedicated support for three competition commissions ongoing.
Five PSDI pilot projects have demonstrated approaches to help women gain technical skills, establish formal businesses, access credit and markets, or reach senior professional roles. Meanwhile, PSDI has assessed the impact on women of all its outputs.
