The Crucial Role of Powerbrokers in International Affairs
The media love to demonize them, and government bureaucracies tend to marginalize them. So why do political leaders entrust private business people with sensitive endeavors of national importance?
In recent days, private equity real estate investor Tom Barrack has made headlines over his efforts to bridge relations between the U.S. and Saudi Arabia. Barrack, well known for his politically-oriented investments in the Middle East, has made significant U.S.-based investments in digital infrastructure and telecoms backed also by Saudi Arabia's sovereign wealth fund. Reports have also emerged that the businessman planned to sell American nuclear energy technologies to the Kingdom. Some oppose Barrack's business activities saying they blur the lines between corporate interests and political decision-making, however Barrack, and brokers like him, see business as the essential bridge to foster cultural and political rapprochement.
Powerbrokers tend to be prolific networkers and exert influence across both politicians and business people alike, but it's their ability to seamlessly move between the worlds of government and business, which enables them to bring people together and facilitate unusual developments.
Using wealthy, connected brokers to mediate between world leaders, horse trade between governments and global corporations, dig up "dirt" on adversaries, or unite powerful people with one another is hardly a new phenomenon.
Indeed, President Donald Trump did it before he was even targeted by the Mueller investigation. Prior to the November 2016 election, for example, Tom Barrack arranged a meeting between the future president and the emir of Qatar in Trump Tower. Barrack, also a former deputy undersecretary at the Department of the Interior, introduced Trump to his ex-campaign manager, Paul Manafort, and facilitated conversations that fortified Trump's ties with Saudi Arabia and the UAE, helping to realign the Middle East.
Barrack has been one of the most prominent money figures of the Trump era. He fundraised for Trump's presidential campaign, delivered a prime-time television address at the Republican National Convention and was chairman of Trump's inaugural committee.
Trump isn't alone when it comes to using powerbrokers to reach and influence decision-makers. Others also turn to these industry insiders — politicians, business leaders or individuals who are "connected" — to make headway with a particular project or goal. Private sector businesspeople are less constrained by politics and diplomatic optics and can often achieve goals more effectively and efficiently than traditional diplomats.
Powerbrokers such as Barrack are prolific networkers who can sway politicians and business executives and who can think "out of the box." Sometimes they are industrial lobbyists and members of the media who, because they understand the ins and outs of a particular issue, can reach and influence decision-makers more quickly than those who are unfamiliar with key players.
Political leaders entrust leaders of industry with sensitive endeavors of national importance because they are discrete and creative. They can work outside the standard protocols and bureaucratic constraints, and operate at the intersection of private industry and foreign affairs.
Take Erik Prince, for instance. The ex-U.S. Navy SEAL and founder of the private security contractor formerly known as Blackwater was an important adviser to the UAE as it developed what is probably the Persian Gulf region's best-equipped and trained military.
After selling Blackwater in 2010, Prince put together an army-for-hire in the UAE. The country, a buyer of U.S. weapons, has reportedly paid millions to think-tanks and consultants to ensure its worldview is heard in Washington. It seems to have worked, with Trump poised to veto House votes to block emergency arms sales to the UAE (as well as Saudi Arabia).
Prince, the brother of U.S. Education Secretary Betsy DeVos, was one of two businesspeople recruited by Trump's advisers to develop alternatives to the Pentagon's plan to send thousands of additional troops to Afghanistan. He and Stephen Feinberg, a billionaire financier who owns military contractor DynCorp International, devised proposals to rely on contractors instead of American troops. Those plans raised serious ethical questions, as they would have benefited the two contractors, and were rejected by then-defense chief Jim Mattis — who later resigned over policy differences with Trump.
Another colleague of Prince, Australian-Israeli businessman Joel Zamel, first received public attention in 2018 with a number of media reports on the Mueller investigation. He is the founder of a number of private intelligence companies, including Wikistrat — a crowdsourced intelligence analysis and wargaming platform, and WhiteKnight — which specializes in counter-extremism activities and social media campaigns. Zamel's focus revolves around private sector influence campaigns — designed to supplement government CVE (countering violent extremism) programs.
Having cultivated a wide network of former government officials and politically active billionaires, Zamel is an active investor in cybersecurity companies that can bring technological capabilities to such CVE efforts.

Wealthy executives are not the only powerbrokers shaping private diplomacy. The likes of former U.S. Secretary of State Henry Kissinger and World Economic Foundation founder Klaus Schwab have also had an impact. These movers and shakers may be more motivated by their own visions and beliefs than businesspeople seeking to line their own pockets, and this means they may serve a more positive purpose in the international system.
Kissinger has played the role of powerbroker for more than six decades — the former U.S. secretary of state has met with Russian President Vladimir Putin and Chinese leader Xi Jinping more than any other American. Back in the 1970s, he pushed one president to use China to isolate the Soviet Union. These days, he's counseling almost the reverse. Despite a controversial foreign policy track record that includes accusations of war crimes, Kissinger has met with Trump several times in the last few years, showing that he still has political clout.
Much of Schwab's behind-the-scenes diplomacy comes during the annual World Economic Forum gathering at Davos in the Swiss Alps. He rubs shoulders with the business executives and government leaders who flock to the global economic meeting and meets political leaders around the world to discuss issues such as economic stability, globalization, trade wars, and technological change.
He's come under criticism, too. "Schwab's anti-globalist shift is a hijacking attempt," Stephan Richter and Uwe Bott wrote in Foreign Policy. "It shows how corporate elites are trying to accommodate nationalist populism while still maximizing their own personal gains — which, of course, come at the expense of the very masses they're attempting to appeal to."
While it can be debated whether all public diplomatic efforts should be in the hands of elected officials, many former diplomats and government officials suggest that powerbrokers come with two salient qualities: creativity and discretion. Such qualities are often amiss when it comes to modern-day diplomats, who are, perhaps discrete, but often lack crucially important creative abilities, which cannot be taught or learned in universities and foreign policy schools around the world.
These businesspeople-turned-powerbrokers can work outside the standard protocols and bureaucratic constraints, and operate at the intersection of private industry and foreign affairs, thus serving an effective purpose in the international system.

Have you ever feel dull and untidy after a long flight? It happens every time, whenever you board a flight with a glowing face and with lots of excitement. However, when you step off where you look just like coming out from a prison. This happens to everyone.You will find your hair is flat, your skin is dry and also you smell horrible.
Therefore, looking like a mess while your travel on a flight isn't something anyone would want. This guide might help you out, in giving some ideas on how to look fresh and feel tidy in an affordable time during your flight journey.
First and foremost, before you board a flight, keep your hair up. All you need to do is tie a bun which works the best while you travel by flight. Therefore, this will help you to minimize the feel of having knots and greasy hair which is kind of annoying right? Hence, in other ways, many people look good with their hair up or if you have a long hair then you can do ponytail or braids.
Always keep in mind, you should keep with you a deodorant which comes handy while traveling. I prefer to take the scented ones, this way you won't smell bad even after your long flight. However, it depends on how much you need because you need to put on after every 3-6 hours.
When it comes to staying fresh, you can also wash your face after a long flight. You don't need use soap, in fact, you can just wash it with plain water. It is the easiest option in order to stay fresh even after a long flight. Therefore, you can wash it either in a public bathroom or even with your water bottle or tissues when on flight can be a solution. Washing your face is one of the basic and easy ways to look fresh and clean.
When you are traveling, always keep in mind to avoid putting lots of makeup like eyeliners, mascara, heavy lipsticks, and eyeshadow. You must be wondering why? Because they will most likely get smudge while you are on a long flight and also will feel that your face is heavy. However, you can apply like simple lip balm or you can put on light foundations on your face.
Another thing, whenever you travel and want to look fresh even after a long flight, then try to keep a moisturizer with you. This way you can apply some to your face but without makeup either on your arms or on your legs. Therefore, it will help you to keep you relax and fresh throughout your journey.
When it comes to keeping hydrated, then not only just your skin but also your body as well. Always drink plenty of water and juices for more radiant skin, but avoid drinking fizzy drinks or coffee or tea this might affect your tummy badly while traveling.
When you travel on a flight, always wear comfortable clothes that don't get wrinkle easily. However, make sure to wear darker clothes in order to prevent from getting messed up with food or drinks spills on your clothes. And yes, don't forget to keep a scarf or a shawl with you, once it gets chilly up in the air. And also pack 2-3 pair of socks with you while you travel, this will help you to keep your feet warm.
Keep in mind to brush your teeth after every plane meal, this way you will feel some minty fresh on your mouth. However, if you find it difficult to carry your toothbrush with you then keep with you some mint in your pocket. Therefore, it will provide you something to chew on and also give you a good breath while you travel.
This might sound funny and silly, but stretching after every three to four hours can make you feel fresh while doing the journey. Therefore, not only stretching can make you feel relaxed but also make you aware as well.
While you are on a trip, if you are keeping your hair lose then you will need to brush your hair. This will make you look fresh and clean even after a long journey. In fact, you can also put some baby powder on the roots of your hair in order to minimize the greasiness. Therefore, you can look fresh even on your long flight.
These are the guidelines of how to look fresh even after a long flight. So, once if you follow these easy steps on how to look fresh even after a long flight, then you won't be looking unfresh and have a dull face. But you will feel fresh and clean and enjoy the rest of your trip.

Romandie Stage 2: A Lollipop Course, & LIVE Thread
By Chris Fontecchio Apr 30, 2009, 2:35am EDT
Share All sharing options for: Romandie Stage 2: A Lollipop Course, & LIVE Thread
One for the sprinters today?? We shall see; it's a bit undulating toward the end, with a cat-1 climb and three cat-2s in the last third of the race. But I think what's especially interesting is the rare appearance of a lollipop course: where the race heads out, then does a loop, then heads back on the original route to the starting point. This may sound minor, but can be very welcomed by the racers. I can say from personal experience, if you ride to the course with all your stuff in a backpack, it's a real help to be able to stow your pack someplace and then be able to retrieve it right after the race. Now, these are pro teams, so presumably they will figure out a place to safely stow their packs. Really, this stage should go very well.
Anyway, back to the sprinters. Mark Cavendish is on the startlist, and all eyes will be directed his way. But Robbie McEwen will be looking for an opening. Tyler Farrar will relish another chance to slip on by at the line. Oscar Freire and Koldo Fernandez too. But the climbs... they aren't fearsome but presumably are disruptive, particularly if the roads are as small and winding as today's course. Perfect for a guy who likes to hammer off on his own for a while. A guy like... Jens Voigt. Just sayin.

The more willing you are to travel at a moment's notice, the more opportunities you can access. Day jobs will limit travel, so will mortgages and car payments. Photojournalist Lynsey Addario recently wrote about being 7 months pregnant while on assignment in Gaza. I deeply admire her bravery and commitment to her work, but I imagine many photographers aren't willing to make such compromises. Consider your lifestyle, and how much time you're willing to spend away from home. As for myself, I'm a long-term digital nomad traveling with a suitcase and a backpack and an open mind. Being available and flexible has made a monumental difference to my career.
In February 2018, Hawaiian was rumored to be canceling its order for six A330-800s and replacing them with 787-9s.[82] It was reported that Boeing priced the aircraft at less than $115 million, and possibly less than $100 million, each; the production cost of a 787-9 is between $80 million and $90 million. Boeing Capital also released Hawaiian from three 767-300ER leases in advance; these aircraft were to be transferred to United Airlines. Initially, Hawaiian refuted it cancelled its A330-800 order, but did not dismiss a new deal with Boeing.[83] However, on March 6, 2018, Hawaiian Airlines confirmed the cancellation of the A330-800 order and the signing of a Letter of Intent with Boeing to purchase ten 787-9 aircraft, with options for an additional ten planes;[84] the deal was finalized at the Farnborough Air Show in July 2018.[85]
Meanwhile, Hawaiian Airlines also entered the new international markets of Australia and New Zealand in 1986 with one-stop services through Pago Pago International Airport. Hawaiian also aggressively grew its international charter business and pursued military transport contracts. This led to a large growth in the company's revenues and caused its inter-island service's share of revenues to shrink to just about a third of the company's total.[22]

The setting for the photo shoot which resulted in the slideshow was the beautiful Lin Ben Yuan Family Mansion and Garden (林本源園邸) in the Banqiao District, Taipei. It was a residence built by the Lin Ben Yuan Family, and is the country's most complete surviving example of traditional Chinese garden architecture. It can be traced back to 1847 when it was built for storing of rice crop whose location was more convenient for the increasingly wealthy Lin Ben Yuan family. A few years later, it became the family's main residence.

In August 2012, Hawaiian announced an upgrade to its economy-class inflight U.S. mainland service. Among the upgrades were a new menu, a complimentary glass of wine on lunch/dinner flights and a free tropical cocktail before landing on breakfast flights. This was in contrast to other airlines cutting back on meal service.[99] According to Hawaiian's CEO Mark Dunkerley:

Rio's Belmond Copacabana Palace comes alive
Rio's Belmond Copacabana Palace comes alive with stunning visuals by Christie and On Projeções
Rio de Janeiro, Brazil (September 16, 2016) – Christie's 3DLP® projectors were behind the spectacular projection mappings that took place each evening in August on the façade of the Belmond Copacabana Palace luxury hotel, located on Copacabana Beach in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. With the technical production of On Projeções, in cooperation with All Business, the beautiful visual reproduced butterflies whose wings bore the flags of different countries, representing the different nations gathering in Rio, to celebrate cultural diversity.
The hotel is widely considered as South America's premier hotel, and has received the rich and famous for over 90 years. Andrea Natal, the hotel's General Manager, explained she wanted to engage with guests and the local community, welcoming them to Rio in August 2016 when more than a million people visited the city. "Belmond Copacabana Palace is an important visual landmark, so we wanted to do something special with the façade that would create a wonderful, lasting impression."
The projection work consisted of a series of animations of butterflies which were projected onto the building's seven-story façade each evening at 7pm, carrying the message 'Rio Welcomes the World'. Each 10-minute display was enjoyed by the general public from the beach promenade in front of the hotel. The animations were created by Kristjana S Williams, an award-winning artist from Iceland, and were brought to life by animator Darren Hanson of the London studio thingsmove.
Christie 3DLP projectors, with 30,000 ANSI lumens and 2K resolution, were used to project the mapping on a surface measuring 70 meters long by 23 meters high. The projectors were installed together on a truss structure 14 meters high, located in the sand of Copacabana's beach at a throw distance of 96 meters.
The mapping projection had a total resolution of 3334 x 1080 pixels and an aspect ratio of 3:4. The contents were launched from two Mediaflow servers with three outputs each. The use of blending and warping was critical in adapting the images precisely to the irregular surface on which the mapping was screened.
The end result was a fantastic series of theatrical light projections that caused a big impact on the people including locals and visitors who viewed the shows. Luciana Barcellos, managing director at On Projeções, said: "The mapping projections were a resounding success and everybody expressed their happiness with them."
And specific to the Christie projectors, Barcellos added: "As they were located in a high structure, with limited access, the projectors could not fail because they could not be replaced easily. But their performance was outstanding and once again we were bowled over by their versatility, contrast, vivid colors and reliability."
Clayton Brito, Christie's Country Manager in Brazil, commented: "We are delighted that this stunning piece created by Kristjana S Williams and Darren Hanson was brought to life using our 3DLP projectors. Our valued partner On Projeções has repeatedly delivered extraordinary projection mappings."
Built in 1923, the Belmond Copacabana Palace's fame was assured when Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers referenced it in Flying Down To Rio, their first film together. Many famous people have been guests at the Copacabana Palace, including Madonna, Michael Jackson, Robbie Williams, Walt Disney, Rolling Stones, Elizabeth Taylor, Elton John, Marilyn Monroe, Rita Hayworth, Frank Sinatra, Brigitte Bardot, Princess Diana, among others.

Q: Huge data string passing in url I have created a html page which has a div displaying image.I have to pass the  base 64 image string into this html page in the url so that I can set the image div source on loading.
The html page can be called from any application may be java/javascript or any.But along with the url the image string has to be passed to the page. Here is the sample html application which calls my html page-
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<script>
imagestring ="R0lGODlhEAAOALMAAOazToeHh0tLS/7LZv/0jvb29t/f3//Ub//ge8WSLf/rhf/3kdbW1mxsbP//mf///yH5BAAAAAAALAAAAAAQAA4AAARe8L1Ekyky67QZ1hLnjM5UUde0ECwLJoExKcppV0aCcGCmTIHEIUEqjgaORCMxIC6e0CcguWw6aFjsVMkkIr7g77ZKPJjPZqIyd7sJAgVGoEGv2xsBxqNgYPj/gAwXEQA7";
</script>
<button type="button" onclick="window.open('URL?image='+imagestring)">open the html page </button>

</body>
</html>

Here URL points to the html page deployed on a server.This works fine only if the imagestring value is small.
But if the size is huge because of the limitation on several browsers it won't work.What alternate way I can approach?
My requirement is huge datastring passing in url.

A: You need to POST the image data.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
 <body>

  <form action="URL" method="POST">
   <input type="hidden" name="image" value="R0lGODlhEAAOALMAAOazToeHh0tLS/7LZv/0jvb29t/f3//Ub//ge8WSLf/rhf/3kdbW1mxsbP//mf///yH5BAAAAAAALAAAAAAQAA4AAARe8L1Ekyky67QZ1hLnjM5UUde0ECwLJoExKcppV0aCcGCmTIHEIUEqjgaORCMxIC6e0CcguWw6aFjsVMkkIr7g77ZKPJjPZqIyd7sJAgVGoEGv2xsBxqNgYPj/gAwXEQA7"/>
   <button type="submit">open the html page</button>
  </form>

 </body>
</html>

A: Standard URLs which use GET method by default have a limit of about 8KB in length.
If you want to send large data to the server, you must use POST method. In this case, URL remains short, and actual data will be sent to server as parameters in your submit form.
You can also POST data using ajax, like this.

A: You are using GET method to passing your data. you can't pass huge data by GET method. check this out: HTTP URI GET limit
Use POST method.

I have known John Mason for over twenty years, beginning in 1993. Among the artists I've worked with, Mason stands out as a quiet, thoughtful mentor. His pensive manner, and his encouragement over the years were consistent, understanding and supportive of me as I gained my footing as an art dealer. I've always said that my advantage in this business was to have the respect and encouragement of some of the first generation of major West Coast artists.
So, it's with pride and a sense of history that I curated a survey of Mason's work for Kayne Griffin Corcoran gallery, which opened just two weeks ago and runs through the end of August. Mason is an artist who helped me in the beginning, not only by respecting my vision of the formation of a gallery, but by providing introductions to his peers—and this presentation signifies that long history. It was an honor to present such a monumental group of John's work.
I would like to thank the partners at Kayne Griffin Corcoran Gallery—Maggie Kayne, William Griffin, and James Corcoran—for their steadfast support of this exhibition. They, along with their committed staff, made this possible. Colleen Brennan, Paige Huntley and Alexandra Lippman worked directly with me during the organization and assembly of the show, as well as the many contacts with lenders and the artist. Finally, I'd like to thank my staff, Kelly Boyd and Gabriel Seri, for their efforts to bring this exhibition to fruition. They worked behind the scenes for a year and half to coordinate the many moving parts involved in a show of this magnitude. Kelly and Gabriel have also produced an online publication, which can be viewed and downloaded here.

Your business may have been established for a number of years and be ticking over nicely, but what would happen if your order book were to expand rapidly and cash flow become an issue? If you have a robust business plan in place you should have sufficient warning to enable additional finance to be raised without a lack of working capital becoming problematic. If not, you may be unable to take full advantage of the opportunity to expand and become more profitable. Even worse, the survival of the enterprise may be at risk if sources of finance cannot be found to cover the cost of materials and labour. Countless companies have been forced to close simply because they ran out of cash despite the fact that they had full order books.
No matter how large or small the company, effective financial management is essential if an enterprise is to succeed and avoid the pitfalls that might otherwise catch it out in periods of growth or, for that matter, recession. One way to ensure the correct financial controls and strategies are in place and to gain access to additional funding is to contact companies such as private equity firm AnaCap for advice on which is the most suitable option in your particular case. As long as you can demonstrate that your company has the potential for sustained and significant growth, there should be little problem in attracting suitable investors.
The various forms of equity finance include venture capitalists who, in return for a minority stake in your company and a place on the board, will provide not only an unsecured cash injection, but also financial expertise and invaluable trade contacts. Another possibility are business angels, which can be either organisations offering their members a stake in a selection of commercial enterprises, or wealthy individuals. Angels provide mentoring and expertise and tend to have an in-depth knowledge of the sector in which the companies they invest in operate. Banks may also be prepared to offer equity investment. A key advantage for some business owners is that they do not play any role in the day to day running of the company. On the downside, one of the problems with any equity finance option is that it can take as long as 18 months to put into place.
Your bank may be prepared to offer funding in the form of a short or long-term loan, although in the current economic climate they may be reluctant to provide a significant amount. What's more, bank loans tend to be expensive and regular repayments will be required.
In addition to the financial challenges faced by any growing business there are several other potentially significant issues to address. For example, there will inevitably come a point where your existing premises can no longer cope and you will be faced with either relocating to larger premises or expanding your existing workspace. Either of these options can be extremely time-consuming and expensive, so planning ahead is essential. The second major challenge relates to taking on additional workers. It is almost inevitable that recruits will require training, which is likely to involve existing hard-working staff being taken away from their day-to-day tasks to act as educators. It is, therefore, desirable to plan your recruitment strategy well in advance.
Whilst growth inevitably brings with it new challenges, the rewards, in terms of increased profitability and the satisfaction of seeing your company succeed, are sure to more than make up for the effort required.

Q: Group generated by some transpositions in $S_n$ Let $T \subset S_n$ be a set of transpositions. Let $G = \langle T \rangle$. I want to show that $G$ has at least $n - |T|$ orbits.
Am I correct in assuming that "orbits" here is synonymous with "conjugacy classes"?
How do I go about getting started on this? I can't seem to get a foothold.

A: We prove this by induction. For one transposition $(ij) $, the orbits are $\{i, j\} $ and $\{k\} $ for $k\notin \{i, j\} $. Otherwise, suppose there are $m$ transpositions generating the subgroup. If we restrict to the first $m-1$, we have distinct orbits $O_p$ for $1\leq p\leq M$ with $M\geq n-m+1$.
Let the last transposition be $(ij) $. If there is a single orbit $O_p$ containing both $i$ and $j$, then the orbits of the larger subgroup are the same and the result follows. Otherwise, there is an orbit $O_p$ containing $i$ and a distinct orbit $O_q$ containing $j$. Adding $(ij) $ joins these two orbits and has no effect on the others, so there are $M-1$ orbits, and the result follows by induction.


Dry Ice is the solid form of Carbon Dioxide (CO2). CO2 is a colorless, tasteless, odorless gas found naturally in our atmosphere. It is what humans and animals exhale and is vital for plants grow.
Dry ice blasting is similar to sand blasting, bead blasting, or soda blasting where Rice sized dry ice pellets are accelerated in a pressurized high velocity air stream to impact and clean a surface. It is non-abrasive to surfaces harder than the soft dry ice pellets.
3. How is dry ice stored?
Dry Ice is stored in an insulated tote with thick insulation to slow down the sublimation. Depending on the climate and thickness of the container, typical dry ice sublimation is approximately 2% to 10% per day.
4. Why would I use dry ice instead of a traditional blast media?
Most other blast media leave secondary waste behind. Dry ice sublimates (vaporizes) upon impact with the surface. All that remains is the contaminate you are removing. Also, since dry ice vaporizes on impact, the process can be used to clean complicated cavities where typical grit blast media will become trapped.
5. How does the extreme cold help clean?
Unlike other blast media, dry ice has a temperature of -109°F (-78.3°C). Because of the temperature difference between the dry ice particles and the surface being treated, thermal shock occurs during the process of dry ice blasting. This causes a breakdown of the bond between two dissimilar materials. Gummy substances and adhesives are embrittled making them easier to remove.
6. What happens to the contaminate?
Contaminates can be dry, wet, hard or soft. Dry contaminates will break up into small chips and can be swept up or vacuumed. If the particles are large enough, they do not become airborne. If the contaminate is wet, such as grease or oils, the stream will move or push the liquid away much like a high pressure water stream would, except that the surface where the contaminate was will be dry and clean. To prevent re-deposition, the operator should work in a methodical way, from the top down.
7. Do the contaminates or dry ice pellets ricochet?
Upon impact, dry ice pellets sublimate to a gaseous state and therefore dry ice particles typically do not ricochet. The removed contaminant is usually washed away by the blast jet stream and does not come directly back into the blast gun vicinity; however, safety glasses must be worn at all times during the operation of the machine.
8. Will dry ice blasting damage the substrate?
The dry ice blasting process will not damage the substrate. The size of the dry ice pellets and their velocity can be optimized to remove the contaminate while being non-abrasive to the substrate. The process can clean delicate chrome or nickel plated tools, soft aluminum or brass alloys, wire insulation, and even circuit boards without causing damage.
9. Can you use dry ice blasting to clean hot tools in place?
Yes. In fact, dry ice blasting cleans faster when the substrate is hot.
10. Does dry ice blasting cool the substrate?
Yes, but not dramatically. The amount of cooling depends on the substrate material, the dwell time of the dry ice blast stream, and the dry ice usage. For example, a 30 inch (76.2 cm) by 30 inch (76.2 cm) rubber mold may have an initial temperature of 325°F (162.8°C). After the tool has been blasted clean (approximately 12 minutes), the temperature of the mold is about 300°F (148.9°C).
11. Will the temperature drop damage the hot mold?
Generally, no. The temperature change of the surface being cleaned is small and the corresponding tensile stress will be well below the point of what most molds will encounter during normal heat treatment.
12. Will the process create condensation?
Condensation occurs when the temperature of the substrate falls below the dew point. The dew point varies with climate and the daily weather patterns. When cleaning hot substrates, condensation will rarely occur because the temperature of the surface will stay above the dew point. If condensation does form, you can control it by using heaters, heat lamps, or blow off devices.
13. How much compressed air does Dry Ice Blasting use?
A typical ice blasting system operates at 90 psi (6.2 bar) with 150 scfm (4.25 m3/min), however the need depends on the application. Our technical people will determine if a diesel compressor will be needed to provide sufficient supply.
14. How portable are the dry ice blasting machines?
In a factory setting, one person can easily roll any of the machines around the plant floor without any special equipment. In a mobile set-up, you must considers trucks, and tow-behind, diesel compressors.
15. What are the primary safety issues when dry ice blasting?
There are the same safety issues that are pertinent to using compressed air and to ensure nothing is going to get blown at someone. Another concern is the temperature of the dry ice. At -109°F (-78.3°C), we recommend wearing gloves when coming in contact with the dry ice. Eye and ear protection must be worn at all times.
16. Can Dry Ice Blasting be used to remove paint?
Yes, However the removal rate is dependent on great number of factors including: the underlying surface profile of the substrate, the thickness of the coating, the adhesive bond strength of the coating, and the cohesive strength of the coating (generally a function of age).
17. Can Dry Ice Blasting remove rust?
Dry ice blasting will remove any loosely adhered oxidation and salts, but it will not remove the deeply adhered oxidation. You will not get a white metal finish. To achieve this you have to remove the surface metal, something that dry ice blasting cannot do. In many applications however, this is a major advantage as it preserves the original profile and surface integrity of the substrate.
18. Can Dry Ice Blasting be used on a wooden surface?
Short answer: Yes. Blasting wood with dry ice may raise the grain of soft woods, leaving a finish that upon close visual inspection can reveal imperfections that for some may be not be acceptable. Hardwoods generally respond much better to DIB. There are however, specialized DIB machines that are capable of cleaning VERY gently. Ask us about them.
19. Does Dry Ice Blasting generate static electricity?
It does. All dry air processes will generate a degree of static electricity and dry ice blasting is no exception. Dry Ice Blasting equipment is designed with integral grounding devices. As long as both the blasting unit and the workpiece are properly grounded to a good earthing point, you are very unlikely to have static discharge problems.

Q: Vectorizing the solution of a linear equation system in MATLAB Summary: This question deals with the improvement of an algorithm for the computation of linear regression.

I have a 3D (dlMAT) array representing monochrome photographs of the same scene taken at different exposure times (the vector IT) . Mathematically, every vector along the 3rd dimension of dlMAT represents a separate linear regression problem that needs to be solved. The equation whose coefficients need to be estimated is of the form:

DL = R*IT^P, where DL and IT are obtained experimentally and R and P must be estimated.

The above equation can be transformed into a simple linear model after applying a logarithm:

log(DL) = log(R) + P*log(IT)  =>  y = a + b*x

Presented below is the most "naive" way to solve this system of equations, which essentially involves iterating over all "3rd dimension vectors" and fitting a polynomial of order 1 to (IT,DL(ind1,ind2,:):
%// Define some nominal values:
R = 0.3;
IT = 600:600:3000;
P = 0.97;
%// Impose some believable spatial variations:
pMAT = 0.01*randn(3)+P;
rMAT = 0.1*randn(3)+R;
%// Generate "fake" observation data:
dlMAT = bsxfun(@times,rMAT,bsxfun(@power,permute(IT,[3,1,2]),pMAT));
%// Regression:
sol = cell(size(rMAT)); %// preallocation
for ind1 = 1:size(dlMAT,1)
  for ind2 = 1:size(dlMAT,2)
    sol{ind1,ind2} = polyfit(log(IT(:)),log(squeeze(dlMAT(ind1,ind2,:))),1);
  end
end
fittedP = cellfun(@(x)x(1),sol);      %// Estimate of pMAT
fittedR = cellfun(@(x)exp(x(2)),sol); %// Estimate of rMAT

The above approach seems like a good candidate for vectorization, since it does not utilize MATLAB's main strength that is MATrix operations. For this reason, it does not scale very well and takes much longer to execute than I think it should.

There exist alternative ways to perform this computation based on matrix division, as demonstrated here and here, which involve something like this:
sol = [ones(size(x)),log(x)]\log(y);

That is, appending a vector of 1s to the observations, followed by mldivide to solve the equation system.
The main challenge I'm facing is how to adapt my data to the algorithm (or vice versa).
Question #1: How can the matrix-division-based solution be extended to solve the problem presented above (and potentially replace the loops I am using)?
Question #2 (bonus): What is the principle behind this matrix-division-based solution?

A: The secret ingredient behind the solution that includes matrix division is the Vandermonde matrix. The question discusses a linear problem (linear regression), and those can always be formulated as a matrix problem, which \ (mldivide) can solve in a mean-square error sense‡. Such an algorithm, solving a similar problem, is demonstrated and explained in this answer.
Below is benchmarking code that compares the original solution with two alternatives suggested in chat1, 2 :
function regressionBenchmark(numEl)
clc
if nargin<1, numEl=10; end
%// Define some nominal values:
R = 5;
IT = 600:600:3000;
P = 0.97;
%// Impose some believable spatial variations:
pMAT = 0.01*randn(numEl)+P;
rMAT = 0.1*randn(numEl)+R;
%// Generate "fake" measurement data using the relation "DL = R*IT.^P"
dlMAT = bsxfun(@times,rMAT,bsxfun(@power,permute(IT,[3,1,2]),pMAT));
%% // Method1: loops + polyval
disp('-------------------------------Method 1: loops + polyval')
tic; [fR,fP] = method1(IT,dlMAT); toc;
fprintf(1,'Regression performance:\nR: %d\nP: %d\n',norm(fR-rMAT,1),norm(fP-pMAT,1));
%% // Method2: loops + Vandermonde
disp('-------------------------------Method 2: loops + Vandermonde')
tic; [fR,fP] = method2(IT,dlMAT); toc;
fprintf(1,'Regression performance:\nR: %d\nP: %d\n',norm(fR-rMAT,1),norm(fP-pMAT,1));
%% // Method3: vectorized Vandermonde
disp('-------------------------------Method 3: vectorized Vandermonde')
tic; [fR,fP] = method3(IT,dlMAT); toc;
fprintf(1,'Regression performance:\nR: %d\nP: %d\n',norm(fR-rMAT,1),norm(fP-pMAT,1));
function [fittedR,fittedP] = method1(IT,dlMAT)
sol = cell(size(dlMAT,1),size(dlMAT,2));
for ind1 = 1:size(dlMAT,1)
  for ind2 = 1:size(dlMAT,2)
    sol{ind1,ind2} = polyfit(log(IT(:)),log(squeeze(dlMAT(ind1,ind2,:))),1);
  end
end

fittedR = cellfun(@(x)exp(x(2)),sol);
fittedP = cellfun(@(x)x(1),sol);

function [fittedR,fittedP] = method2(IT,dlMAT)
sol = cell(size(dlMAT,1),size(dlMAT,2));
for ind1 = 1:size(dlMAT,1)
  for ind2 = 1:size(dlMAT,2)
    sol{ind1,ind2} = flipud([ones(numel(IT),1) log(IT(:))]\log(squeeze(dlMAT(ind1,ind2,:)))).'; %'
  end
end

fittedR = cellfun(@(x)exp(x(2)),sol);
fittedP = cellfun(@(x)x(1),sol);

function [fittedR,fittedP] = method3(IT,dlMAT)
N = 1; %// Degree of polynomial
VM = bsxfun(@power, log(IT(:)), 0:N); %// Vandermonde matrix
result = fliplr((VM\log(reshape(dlMAT,[],size(dlMAT,3)).')).');
%// Compressed version:
%// result = fliplr(([ones(numel(IT),1) log(IT(:))]\log(reshape(dlMAT,[],size(dlMAT,3)).')).');

fittedR = exp(real(reshape(result(:,2),size(dlMAT,1),size(dlMAT,2))));
fittedP = real(reshape(result(:,1),size(dlMAT,1),size(dlMAT,2)));

The reason why method 2 can be vectorized into method 3 is essentially that matrix multiplication can be separated by the columns of the second matrix. If A*B produces matrix X, then by definition A*B(:,n) gives X(:,n) for any n. Moving A to the right-hand side with mldivide, this means that the divisions A\X(:,n) can be done in one go for all n with A\X. The same holds for an overdetermined system (linear regression problem), in which there is no exact solution in general, and mldivide finds the matrix that minimizes the mean-square error. In this case too, the operations A\X(:,n) (method 2) can be done in one go for all n with A\X (method 3).
The implications of improving the algorithm when increasing the size of dlMAT can be seen below:

For the case of 500*500 (or 2.5E5) elements, the speedup from Method 1 to Method 3 is about x3500!
It is also interesting to observe the output of profile (here, for the case of 500*500):
Method 1

Method 2

Method 3

From the above it is seen that rearranging the elements via squeeze and flipud takes up about half (!) of the runtime of Method 2. It is also seen that some time is lost on the conversion of the solution from cells to matrices.
Since the 3rd solution avoids all of these pitfalls, as well as the loops altogether (which mostly means re-evaluation of the script on every iteration) - it unsurprisingly results in a considerable speedup.
Notes:

*

*There was very little difference between the "compressed" and the "explicit" versions of Method 3 in favor of the "explicit" version. For this reason it was not included in the comparison.

*A solution was attempted where the inputs to Method 3 were gpuArray-ed. This did not provide improved performance (and even somewhat degradaed them), possibly due to wrong implementation, or the overhead associated with copying matrices back and forth between RAM and VRAM.

I came across a tutorial that used colour crystals, a background stamp, and a stamp positioning tool that I thought would be perfect for our Stamparatus and Brusho. Only I didn't use a background stamp, I used Sheltering Tree.
It's a fantastic technique that gives you a different look each time you do it. We each made two cards at Linc n Learn this week, and everyone had different looking cards.
For this one, I used the Gamboge Brusho and for the second I added in some Brilliant Red, gave it a completely different look.
Here's the replay of my Facebook Live Card Class (come to the blog to view), you'll see how easy this technique is.
Super fun to play around with. I hope you give it a go.


Eastern Market Metro Plaza Archives - Blackburn Architects, P.C. : Blackburn Architects, P.C.
An intern architect at Blackburn, Matt Himler, who recently graduated from Catholic University, has the opportunity to possibly see one of his school studio projects constructed. This is a rare opportunity for a young designer, so I'd really like to promote his outstanding work by showing it off to all of you.
The District Department of Transportation (DDOT) here in D.C. joined several local business organizations in an effort to enhance the hospitality experience at the Eastern Market Metro Plaza, a metro stop in the Capitol Hill neighborhood on D.C.'s public transit system. In doing so, the group ran a design competition for an information hub/kiosk that will be used to direct visitors to attractions in the area while serving as a local events and news center for residents. Several designs were selected and are now in the comment period, during which the public can provide feedback that will be used to form a recommendation for a final design.
Matt's project is the custom design/build structure 2: MUTATIO. You can view his and alternative designs on the Capitol Hill Information Hub Project blog.


Corning leaders and members of the Changzhou government at the agreement signing ceremony.
CHANGZHOU, CHINA – Corning kicked off its two-day Reactor Technology Annual Conference by sharing exciting news. Corning executive Li Fang announced that the company had recently signed an investment agreement with the Changzhou government to establish a new headquarters in Changzhou for Corning's Advanced-Flow™ Reactors (AFR) business.
As part of the agreement, Corning received support to establish a headquarters and build the infrastructure for the business, including a technology development center and a reactor manufacturing operation in the Changzhou region. The new headquarters is expected to be operational by late 2020 and the manufacturing facility is expected to be complete before the end of this year.
The company celebrated the moment with a crowd of more than 600 professionals including 200+ executives who represent pharmaceutical, specialty and fine chemical companies, as well as academia and government agencies.

damage-resistant pharmaceutical packaging – Corning Valor® Glass – that resists damage and breakage and enhances the storage and delivery of drugs.
Since launching in 2002, AFR technology has grown steadily to become the market leader in continuous flow reactors due to Corning's superior material performance, parts integrity, and overall higher quality system design.
The conference also featured plenary talks from 11 distinguished industry, academia, and government leaders on relevant topics of interest.
Klavs shared how the recent progress made in integrating flow control, reactors, and work-up units with process analytical techniques (PAT) enables multistep synthesis and reconfigurable production platforms. The results of machine learning, computer-aided synthesis planning, and robot controlled continuous organic synthesis continue to further the acceleration of chemical development.
University of Liege Professor Jean-Christophe M. Monbaliu joined the conference remotely to present on "continuous flow organic synthesis at the interface with current societal challenges," including API manufacturing, Biobased chemicals, and neutralization of chemical warfare agents.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) recently published draft guidance for the industry titled: "Quality Considerations for Continuous Manufacturing". The guidance aims to accelerate integrated continuous manufacturing processes to reduce drug production cost, ensure drug quality, and minimize drug shortages.
To showcase these benefits, a representative from Shandong Chambroad Holding shared a case study of their installation and operation of a 10,000 ton/year AFR G4 production unit. They seamlessly scaled-up production, reduced their footprint, and implemented inherently safer designs with safety instrumented system (SIS) automatic controls while producing better quality products with significantly lower operating expenses.
Corning's Yi Jiang, president and general manager of Corning Advanced-Flow Reactor Technology Co., Ltd. with award recipients named as new AFR Application Qualified Labs.
Two companies (Shanghai Pharmaceuticals Holding Co., Ltd. and Shangdong Guanseng Polymer Materials Science & Technology Inc.) and one university (Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Delhi) received placards to honor their strategic commitment to AFR application developments, excellent technology capacity, and investment in innovation. They were also named as new AFR Application Qualified Labs (AQL).
The shortage of talent development for flow chemistry and flow reactor engineering was raised again as a concern at this year's conference.
The second day of the conference comprised training programs that gave more than 350 participants hands-on experience with our broad portfolio of products.
"Our annual technology conference began in 2011 with 35 participants from 15 companies. Thanks to great support from our strong customer base and industry collaborators, it has grown exponentially to become an important part of AFR's global brand," said Yi.

Q: How to get page when I refresh angular route in browser I have this router setup in my angular app (non-essential parts cut out for brevity):
#AppRoutingModule
const routes: Routes = [
  {
    path: '',
    redirectTo: 'apprent',
    pathMatch: 'full'
  },
  {
    path: 'apprent',
    loadChildren: () => import('src/app/containers/main/main.module').then(m => m.MainModule),
    canActivate: [AuthGuard]
  },
  {
    path: 'auth',
    loadChildren: () => import('./auth/auth.module').then(m => m.AuthModule),
  }
];

#MainRoutingModule
const routes: Routes = [{
  path: '',
  component: MainComponent,
  children: [
    {
      path: 'teams',
      loadChildren: () => import('src/app/modules/project-teams/project-teams.module').then(m => m.ProjectTeamsModule)
    }, {
      path: 'virtual',
      loadChildren: () => import('src/app/modules/virtual/virtual.module').then(m => m.VirtualModule)
    }, {
      path: 'dashboard',
      component: DashboardComponent
    }, {
      path: '',
      redirectTo: '/apprent/dashboard',
      pathMatch: 'full'
    }
  ]
}];

#VirtualRoutingModule
const routes: Routes = [{
  path: '',
  component: VirtualComponent,
  children: [{
    path: 'work-plan',
    component: WorkPlanComponent
  }, {
    path: '',
    redirectTo: 'work-plan',
    pathMatch: 'full'
  }]
}];

#ProjectTeamsRoutingModule
const routes: Routes = [{
  path: '',
  component: ProjectTeamsComponent
}];

The route in focus is appRoutingModule->mainRoutingModule->virtualRoutingModule->workPlanComponent
As shown in the gif below, when I navigate to 'apprent/teams' and reload page with F5, I still land on 'apprent/teams'.

However, when the current route is 'apprent/virtual-work/work-plan' and I reload page, I land on 'apprent/dashboard'.
Why does this happen? And what can I do so I can reload 'apprent/virtual/work-plan' and get routed to 'work-plan'.

Chains is een compositie geschreven door Gerry Goffin en Carole King in de vroege jaren 1960, toen het schrijversduo met elkaar getrouwd was. The Everly Brothers namen het nummer als eerste artiest op maar brachten dit niet uit. Amerikaanse meidengroep The Cookies scoorde er een hit mee in 1962, en werd in 1963 gecoverd door Britse rockband The Beatles.

Versie van The Cookies

The Cookies was een meidengroep die actief was in het Brill Building te New York, en zongen bijvoorbeeld als achtergrondkoor op Little Eva's The Loco-Motion, wat een grote hit werd.

Bezetting
 Earl-Jean McCrea - leadzang
 Margaret Ross - achtergrondzang
 Dorothy Jones - achtergrondzang
 Eva Boyd (Little Eva) - achtergrondzang

Versie van The Beatles

Achtergrond
Chains werd door de band live gespeeld voor hun debuutalbum Please Please Me werd opgenomen. Innovatief aan hun opname was de harmonicasolo van John Lennon.

Opname
Het hele album Please Please Me werd op 11 februari 1963 in minder dan dertien uur ingeblikt. Mark Lewisohn schreef hierover dat "het moeilijk voorstelbaar is dat er 585 productievere minuten in de geschiedenis van muziekopnames kunnen bestaan." Voor Chains had men vier takes nodig, maar producer George Martin behield enkel de eerste take. Volgens Ian MacDonald blinkt de opname niet uit in spontaneïteit en lijkt niemand echt toegewijd te zijn.

Bezetting
Bezetting volgens Ian MacDonald
 George Harrison – zang, leadgitaar
 Paul McCartney – zang, basgitaar
 John Lennon - zang, ritmegitaar, harmonica
 Ringo Starr – drums

Andere Versies
 Bulgaars-Franse zangeres Sylvie Vartan nam een Franstalige versie op van het nummer in 1963. Het nummer werd door Georges Aber herwerkt naar Chance.

Ask any Fiorentina fan who the biggest rivals of the club are, and they will tell you simply – Juventus. Despite Viola and Bianconeri holding very different sporting goals, there is a natural animosity between both supports. This was made during the Roberto Baggio transfer saga, and the hatred has never really subsided since. Though more of a one-sided hatred – Juventus consider Internazionale their biggest rival – there is a clear dislike among both clubs. So, when they find time to do business with one another it is usually a one-sided affair.
The signing of Dusan Vlahovic, then, will do nothing to adjust the bad blood that is being felt. The Serbian has signed a long-term deal to move to Juventus for a fee believed to be around €70m. Fiorentina fans are furious; at the club, the player, and the general situation. Only recently, Viola CEO Rocco Commisso had made clear that he was not willing to sell the Serbian – and especially not to the Old Lady.
That, though, has taken place. The signing of Cabral from Basel has done little to appease fans who feel like the club has sold away the rest of the season which looked so promising. However, according to Daniele Prade, the Fiorentina director, the club were 'prisoners' to the demands of Vlahovic and his agent.
At a tense press conference, the Fiorentina director tried to defend the clubs decisions to sell by saying: "Everyone knew full well what the situation was with Vlahovic and it was impossible to say no to that proposal,
"We understand the bitterness of the fans, but there are some situations that go beyond all of us. The clubs are close to becoming prisoners of agents and players. We couldn't say no to this because we risked losing him for free. This is modern football and we can only hope that things change."
Long-term repercussions for Fiorentina?
The arrival of media mastermind Commisso was supposed to signal a changing for Fiorentina. A club that used to fight for titles now looked to simply escape relegation and exist. The new CEO intended to make major changes, but the latest exit – following in the footsteps of the very Juve-favourable deal for Federico Chiesa – is not one that is going to go down very well at all with the fans.
Banners and abuse have been prevalent, with Commisso quick to come out and defend himself. Prade admitted himself that he felt "worried" by the words of Commisso, who is reportedly now questioning his future at the club he has invested so much into.
Saying that he would 'reflect' on what to do next following the fan outcry, Prade admitted he was 'worried', adding: "I too heard that interview and I too am worried by his words. Commisso is a man who gives his all, passion and enthusiasm as well as money. I understand his disappointment. It's too early now to say what his feelings are, but the coach and squad will do everything we can to give back that energy and enthusiasm.
"I hope we can win back the fans with hard work, fairness and winning as many games as possible."
For a club so used to heartbreak, the loss of Vlahovic so late in the window, to Juventus, has been a killer blow for the feelgood factor around the Tuscan giants.

Here you have a large variety of choice. The wild romantic surroundings of the "Tölzer Voralpenlandes" is by far the uptmost ideal of any alpine landscapes when it comes to relaxation and vacation.
Any guest will find his or her ideal adventure and in every season right here. The most precious sites in Bavaria lay almost in front of your doorstep inviting you to experience its mountainous world with breathtaking sceneries and wonderful excursions.


Though on June 23 we are offered what seems to be a simple choice – Remain or Leave – caveats hang heavy on both.
A Leave vote carries particularly dark and mountainous implications. Set aside for a moment the probable short- and possible long-term damage to the economy, the rejection of a valuable forum for solving collective problems, the loss of security, the loss of human rights protection, the abandonment of culture and friendship, the fact we will likely have to accept EU regulations with no say in their creation, like Norway.
Set those aside. The most important thing to remember when voting Leave is that you plant your flag with the far right, with Farage and the EDL and the BNP. With small-minded, mean little politicians who want England to shut the world out, who do not want to extend a helping hand to the thousands of refugees in need, and who do not want to work with our friends and allies to solve the vast problems of our age.
Consider the chaos a Leave vote unleashes. Cameron resigns and the government falls. The new government lurches to the right. Scotland and Northern Ireland immediately demand secession. Britain is pitched into a long dark constitutional crisis, in which swathes of our laws and treaties must be rewritten and renegotiated. The economy stumbles and falters. Far right groups across the EU gain strength. The Union begins to pull apart.
And for what benefit? A faint hope of a better economy, ten, twenty years down the line? Vague promises of sovereignty? The ability to turn our backs on human suffering and the great problems of our age? For nobler causes perhaps I could countenance the unshackling of such devilry, but not for the flimsy promises and grubby half-truths the Leave camp offers to us.
Of course Brussels has problems. It has deep, complex, sprawling problems, which only strong leadership and a humble, philosophical reassessment of the whole project can solve. But the UK carries real weight at the negotiating table. We have turned the EU aside from some of its mistakes in the past, and we can do so again. But we can only do so from within.
Please vote Remain on June 23.


Most importantly, remember that safety should be considered when installing speakers. Damage can be caused by not installing speakers properly – this can impose added cost and even possible injury. Protection for hearing/vision should be used as necessary.
Eventually, you'd have to turn on the radio and check the operation of the new speakers.
