December 09 was hectic, with running around looking at apartments that could suit both our taste and budget. This turned out to be a stressful ride. But finally one house, 2 streets behind the old, greeted us with some sort of an unexplainable serenity.
One of the most irritating task of living in a rented house can also be one of the most exciting one's – changing homes. It gives one a chance to re-create things, add or subtract some. With help of my friend Bat, cousin N and watchman Prathap, I shifted most of the stuff on the last week of January, before P and I could re-arrange things in our new home.
"So long, treasures," Clare said. Her breath made a spool-shaped flicker of steam on the glass.
Feb and March has gone by with decorating the house, inviting a group of friends for dinner, watching plays and Yakshagana along with friends, few travels, visiting a neighborhood temple, adding new plants to the garden and few new creative ideas of which I shall write in a future post.
On the contrary the new house balconies are frequetly visited by lots of pigeons, eagles and squirrels.
Kuppali is around 30kms from Theerthahalli and is the birth place of legendary Kannada poet/novelist, Kuvempu. We got down at the main road from where we had to walk around 1.5 kms to the centenary hall which also has several rooms for overnight stay. Unfortunately there was some program and hence all the rooms were booked. Disappointed we walked to Kuvempu's house, a magnificent three storied house with Mangalore style tiled roof. The house is now a museum preserving the author's belongings.
After a walk around the house, buying a book and requesting the KSRTC bus driver for a drop till main road, we walked to "Kavishaila", memorial of the poet…on a hill top, also a beautiful sunset/sunrise point that is believed to have inspired him many a times. The pathway and the place have been masterfully modified without affecting the original beauty, with some stone pillars which look very much belonging to the sight.
We sat there observing the sun set and a group of teachers (I guess) interrupting the silence that a place like that needs. Anyway, their talks kept us engaged and we also got to see an overly impressed lady who with her unchanging expressions made us wonder if she was impressed or depressed, we named her "Kalpana" remembering the famous Kannada actress most of whose movies are extremely sentimental.
After viewing the beautiful sunset, we walked back to the house, boarded the bus and got dropped till the main road, where we had some not so good Mangalore buns and tea. We reached Theerthahalli at around 8 and checked into a hotel. Tired by the entire day's activity we took a short nap till 9 and then walked to Hotel Mayura for Dinner. The waiter laughed at our orders like, juice before and ice cream after dinner. Classical music from the Marikamba temple fest kept the background score running, during the dinner.
Next morning, I got up at around 7, only to find the town like 5 Am in Bangalore. We freshened up and walked to the Rameshwara temple, a beautiful ancient temple. A walk along the Tunga River was refreshing.
Next stop was "Bheemana Katte."; we took a bus to Ranji katte and boarded an auto to the place. The driver asked – "Whose house?" we said – "Bheema's." :-) He dropped us at the Bheemeshwara Mutt. We entered the mutt and could here loud chants. Swamis were performing the daily rituals and pooja. One of them was very kind to tell us about the mutt and the village. He informed that Bheema had built a crossing out of rocks on the Tunga river and hence the name. He also recommended that we have lunch there before we left. Even though his invite was very tempting, we had to leave early so we decided to come back again to taste the food at mutt.
After viewing the Bheemana katte, Bheemeshwara temple and a suspension bridge we walked back to Ranji katte. On the way we stopped at a house to have water and jaggery. It is a custom in Mangalore and Malnad to offer water and some jaggery to anyone who comes home thirsty. My grandmother used to say that the jaggery would cease the thirst; the tradition now remains only in villages.
At main road we took an auto to the town, packed our bags and left to Shivamoga. Had tasty Biryani at a restaurant in Shivamoga and boarded another bus to Bangalore at around 2:30 and reached Bangalore at 9:30 Pm.
The trip was unexpected and unplanned with us just flowing with the surprises that places and people bring and hence this will remain as one more of those memorable trips.


Today is my rest day from the gym, but this is no excuse to stray from my diet! Sticking to the meal plan provided in the MP45 package. They say 70% of what you look like is based on what you eat… any fitness plan that doesn't incorporate nutrition as an element is bound to be a dud in my opinion.

Churches, faith groups across nation plan 'preach-in' on global warming
By Mark Pattison • Catholic News Service • Posted February 4, 2013
WASHINGTON (CNS) — Events that ended with the suffix "-in" were a staple of the late 1960s and early '70s. But organizers think the time is right for a "preach-in" on the effects of climate change and global warming.
Interfaith Power & Light, which is sponsoring the nationwide event Feb. 9-10, has already lined up one Catholic parish and one convent as early signers on to the preach-in.
At the Church of the Epiphany in Louisville, Ky., there won't be any preaching per se. "The liturgy was already planned" before the parish signed up for the event, said Larry Kerr-Howe, the parish's social responsibility minister.
"We're just doing the postcards" at the weekend Masses Feb. 9-10, Kerr-Howe told Catholic News Service in a Jan. 29 telephone interview from Louisville. The postcards ask President Barack Obama to "please act boldly to protect the climate. … As you acknowledged on the night you won re-election, 'we must protect our children from the destructive power of a warming planet.'"
Among the ways to protect the climate as suggested by the postcard are "speeding the transition to clean energy, limiting carbon pollution and supporting vulnerable people who need assistance." On an international scale, the postcard says the United State should be "sharing clean technology with the developing world, protecting global forests and supporting climate refugees."
The Church of the Epiphany is well-positioned to address these issues, according to Kerr-Howe. In this decade alone, the parish's Environmental Concerns Committee has conducted battery recycling, electronic trash collection, carbon footprint measuring, and sponsored programs on linking food and faith with the environment, and on Buddhism and the response to global warming.
Last year, a busload of parishioners traveled to eastern Kentucky to see the results of mountaintop-removal coal mining, and another busload will travel to the state capital in Frankfort as part of a Kentucky Interfaith Power & Light delegation to push for environmental bills awaiting action in the state Legislature.
At Our Lady of Angels Convent in Aston, Pa., outside of Philadelphia, the Franciscan sisters who reside there will have a little bit of preaching at their Feb. 9 Mass, but will sponsor a viewing and discussion of an Interfaith Power & Light-supplied documentary, "The Hungry Tide," Feb. 10. The movie shows how the warming climate it causing the ocean levels to rise, threatening the well-being of residents of the Kiribati Sea Islands in the Pacific Ocean.
"(On) one of the islands the tide has already washed out their road," said Franciscan Sister Betty Kane, the convent's director of evangelical life services. "Another island, because the tide came to their well, they don't have any drinking water."
Sister Betty added, "One of our sisters made her own (video). She's in Alaska. That, too, is showing the effect of water level rising, affecting the tribes in Alaska. They're not just losing their land, they're losing their lifestyle."
Although St. Francis of Assisi didn't exactly put it in these words, the Franciscans, both men and women, have made care for creation part of their charism. "Franciscans have always done this," Sister Betty said. But "it has to be everybody's issue, not just the Franciscans'. The Franciscans have always had a respectful love of creation because creation reflects the face of God for all people," she added. And, through their preach-in activities, she said her convent hopes to "show that there's a human face connected with global warming."
Even without the aid of a preach-in, faiths can work jointly on climate issues.
On Jan. 18, the outgoing bishop of Marquette, Mich., Alexander K. Sample, helped announce "EarthKeepers II," an interfaith energy conservation and community garden initiative sponsored by the Environmental Protection Agency's Great Lakes Restoration Initiative, the U.S. Forest Service, the nonprofit Cedar Tree Institute, and 10 faith traditions, including the Roman Catholic Church.
The project involves 30 community gardens and energy conservation audits at 40 houses of worship with grants to help pay for changes recommended by those energy conservation surveys.
Appointed Jan. 29 to be the new archbishop of Portland, Ore., now-Archbishop Sample will installed in April.
Editor's Note: More information about Interfaith Power & Light's preach-in on climate change can be found at www.preachin.org.

Q: Software buttons overlap camera capture accept in Silverlight app on WP10 I have a Windows Phone Silverlight app that calls the CameraCaptureTask to acquire a camera picture. This works fine, except on WP10 devices which have software back, Windows and search buttons, because this navigation bar hides the "accept" and "retake" buttons in the camera capture. To illustrate the problem, I took some emulator screenshots. This is what a normal accept screen looks like on a device with hardware buttons:

Here's how it looks with the overlapping software buttons:

In this second screenshot, you can just about see the top of the "retake" button, the rest is hidden behind the software buttons.
Is this a familiar problem for anyone, and is there a solution / workaround? I appear to have no control over the layout of the default capture task, but rolling my own just for this silly problem seems like such overkill..

Property Details (from Cuyahoga County Auditors Office)


8350 Clear Non-Tautening Butyrate is the recommended second product applied to fabric in sequence over the nitrate dope coats in the Ceconite/Randolph process. Nitrate dope is used only for the initial coats on Ceconite; butyrate is used for all others. Clear butyrate is used as a build coat to add thickness and body to the dope film while retaining flexibility. 8350 Clear Butyrate is tinted transparent tan to help see the product as it is applied.
Packaging: Quarts, gallons, 5-gallon pails, 55-gallon drums.
One thinned gallon will cover 200 square feet with one coat. See material estimates section in the rear of the Ceconite Procedure Manual 101 for an estimate for a specific aircraft.
Thinning: Thin to spray viscosity with 9703 Butyrate Thinner, usually one to one.
For best results, apply with a spray gun. Allow each coat to dry before spraying another. Do not rush coats, dopes work best when ample drying time is allowed between coats. As a rule of thumb, two coats a day is a good spraying rate. In cold or humid weather, slow down application time, use Y-9910 Blush Retarder, or wait for better weather. Applying multiple thick coats in a hurry can cause film splitting or wrinkling. Wet sand the last coat with 320 wet or dry paper.
Dry Time: 5 to 45 minutes depending on temperature and humidity.
Shelf Life: Two years unopened.


Marvel's Agent Carter, or simply Agent Carter, is an American television series created for ABC by Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely. It is set in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), sharing continuity with the films and other television series of the franchise.
Picking up after the events of Captain America: The First Avenger, the first season takes place in 1946 with Peggy having to balance the routine office work she does for the Strategic Scientific Reverse (SSR) in New York City while secretly assisting Howard Stark. The second season follows Carter as she moves to Los Angeles to deal with the threats of the new Atomic Age by the Secret Empire in the aftermath of World War II.
Viewership was steadily falling, forcing ABC to cancel the show after two seasons. According to Hayley Atwell, Carter's actress, another reason was because ABC wanted to bring her into a show that was more mainstream, which resulted in Conviction, though that show was eventually cancelled as well. Fortunately, Agent Carter's story is still continued through flashbacks featured in the companion series, Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.. A Reboot Is Currently In Development At Disney+.


I love Pretty Little Liars, and think all the leads are fabulous. Lucy Hale is so pretty, and I love a lot of her red carpet looks. On the show, her character's style is edgy and crazy whereas Lucy's style is more fun and flirty. Here are some of my favorite looks.

'Please don't deport the man who killed my mother'
THE daughter of a woman killed in a crash caused by a garbage truck driver says her mum wouldn't want the offender to be deported for his crime
by SARAH MATTHEWS
THE daughter of a woman killed in a crash caused by a garbage truck driver and Bangladeshi national says her mum wouldn't want the offender to be deported for his crime.
Muhammed Shah Newaz, 32, pleaded guilty in the Darwin Supreme Court on Wednesday to driving a motor vehicle causing harm or death, over the 2019 incident that resulted in the death of 51-year-old health care worker Trish Bartlett.
Newaz, who has never been in custody for the offending, is set to face a head prison sentence of at least 12 months.
This means his Australian working visa will automatically be cancelled unless he successfully applies to have the decision overturned by the Immigration Minister.
However, Ms Bartlett's daughter Rachael Sellers told media outside court that she did not want Newaz to be deported.
"Just with everything going on in the world, with COVID, I don't think it's fair or humane to send someone away," she said.
"He can do his time here in Australia.
"She (Ms Bartlett) was a lover, and she would not want him to be deported.
"She would be telling me 'Rachael, he knows what he has to live with, he was there, he doesn't need to suffer anymore than he has to'."

Ms Sellers said the death of her mother "flipped her life upside down".
"My mum was my rock, she was my best friend," she said.
"We drove to work and home (together) every day, but I was pregnant and I took the day off that day, so obviously I'm very lucky to be alive, as well as April (Ms Seller's young daughter).
"She was a kind loving person.
"Learning to be in this world without her is hard."
Shah Newaz leaving the Darwin Supreme Court with lawyer Ray Murphy after pleading guilty. Picture: Sarah Matthews
The court heard Newaz was driving a Cleanaway garbage truck inbound along McMillans Rd in Berrimah at around 4.45pm on July 30.
At the crest of the road, the offender failed to see traffic backed up from the roundabout and continued driving at 81km/h before smashing into the back of another car.
The truck then veered over to the other side of the road into ongoing traffic, causing a head-on crash with Ms Bartlett, who died at the scene.
Newaz tested negative for both alcohol and drugs at the scene of the crash.
"The effect that this incident, the taking of that innocent life, has been devastating for him," Newaz's lawyer Ray Murphy said.
The matter has been adjourned to Friday for sentencing submissions.

The Best India VPN in 2018
Which VPN is the best India VPN choice in 2018?
By Mark Neri Last update on October 28, 2018
Facebook Twitter WhatsApp Telegram Reddit
The Best VPN For India
VPNs, or virtual private networks, allow consumers to browse the internet or use internet services free from restriction. By encrypting traffic between the user and the VPN provider, ISPs and government censors cannot monitor the traffic. The IP address of the user is obscured, as an outward-facing IP is assigned from the VPN provider's pool. At the same time, users can get around government censoring or geo-restricted content blocks, by using VPN servers located in other countries around the world. This can also help with ISP restrictions on speed (throttling) and similar impediments to free and open internet for all.
Many people find VPNs vital, both at home and abroad. India is no exception. Bypassing censorship or blocks on websites, allowing full access to business-related e-mail and other services, getting around geo-restrictions on content, and being able to access unbiased information on human rights issues and similar are all possible with a VPN.
Why Do You Need a VPN for India?
Whether you live in India or are a tourist, it can be very beneficial to have a VPN service by your side. A VPN for India can give you free, unfettered access to the world of the internet. Recent studies by some top ISP web-blocking firms have shown that India, amongst ten countries surveyed, had some of the highest rates of IP, DNS, and related blocking. What's more, in a lot of cases, no information was provided – merely a time-out message was received by the user, so they didn't even know there was a block.
Many of these blocks are placed on websites that are fully legal and part of normal internet life for a lot of people, and not limited only to torrent or pornography sites. Many belong to non-profits, NGOs, musicians or entertainment industry sites, and similar (in addition to several hundred pornography, torrent, and other sites). Past big-name sites that have had blocks, at least temporarily, include Facebook, Google, Yahoo, Vimeo, various domain hosting organizations, Twitter, BlogSpot, WordPress, Wikipedia, Times of India, Telegraph (UK), GitHub, the Internet Archive, and many others.
Nevertheless, whatever the reason for blocking sites, an India VPN can help allow full internet access while within India. It can help protect citizens from government monitoring, too, allowing them to be free of fear of consequences for accessing so-called banned or illegal sites and materials.
The Best VPNs for India
Below we put 6 of the top VPNs to the test, to see which hold up as the best India VPN providers.
Starting at $8.32/Month
Get ExpressVPN Read Review
ExpressVPN is a leader in VPN services, founded in 2009 and based in the British Virgin Islands. They are committed to customer privacy and service, keeping no logs, and using standard AES-256 bit encryption. With over 2,000 servers in 148 locations in 94 countries, they have a massive global reach, which is perfect for anyone looking to get around geo-restrictions as a VPN for India. Their software is easy to use, with apps and clients for all popular operating systems. Up to 3 devices can be connected simultaneously per account. As for speed, they're one of the fastest around, with only about a 15% decrease in total download speed. And they fully support torrenting, Netflix unblocking, and video streaming.
Key positive points include:
Boasts of being among the fastest networks of any VPN.
Servers in 94 countries, one of the most diverse networks.
Torrenting and Netflix/streaming support.
Secure and reliable.
Get NordVPN Read Review
NordVPN is relatively comparable to ExpressVPN regarding features and quality. Founded in 2008, and based in Panama, they offer one of the largest server networks around, with almost 5,000 servers in 64 countries. They have one of the best no-logging policies in the industry, too. Standard encryption and multiple protocols are used, and there's even a double-encryption option available for ultimate security (though at the cost of speed). It allows up to six devices connected. Speed is nearly as good as ExpressVPN, with only a 20% or so hit to total download speed. Netflix unblocking and torrenting are fully supported, with servers specifically optimized for P2P file sharing, and the client is quite easy to use.
One of the largest server networks around.
Great privacy and security, with one of the best no-logging policies.
Speed is good to excellent.
Torrenting, Netflix unblocking, and streaming are all supported.
Get Vypr VPN Read Review
VyprVPN is possessed and run by Golden Frog, which was founded in 1994, and is based in Switzerland. Currently, VyprVPN has 700 servers in 70 countries. The use of standard encryption and offer a simple, easy-to-use client. However, they do have some logging, which might be a concern when looking for a VPN for India. They offer a three device plan and a five device plan with some other benefits. Speed is decent, at 20-25% hit to download speed only. Netflix and streaming are supported, and work on many of the servers. While torrenting and P2P are allowed, the company does receive and respond to takedown and copyright infringement notices and will suspend your account if you are illegally sharing content, so that's negative.
A reasonable number of servers in many countries.
Speeds are pretty decent.
Plans, options, and features are also reasonable and easy-to-use.
Starting at $10/Month
Get IpVanish VPN Read Review
IPVanish was founded in 1999 and is based in the US. At present, they boast 1,000+ servers in 60 countries. They keep no logs, and there are no bandwidth caps or limitations. Each account can have up to 10 devices. Speed is pretty good, with 15 to 20% download speed reductions only. All of these are important aspects for a good India VPN. Netflix is supported and works on some of the servers, though can be a bit spotty. Torrenting is fully supported as well.
Good mid-range VPN with the large server network.
Fairly high speed, on par with top-tier VPN services.
Lots of additional features and frills available.
Netflix unblocking, streaming, and torrenting support.
Hide.me VPN
Get Hide.me VPN Read Review
Hide.me was founded in 2012 and operates out of Malaysia. They offer a free VPN option with a bandwidth cap, and also paid plans. They have two kinds of paid plans, which make them somewhat unique. First, there's a 75 GB/month plan that supports one device. Then, for those who need more, there's an unlimited plan that supports up to 5 devices. They have around 150 servers in 34 countries, using standard encryption. They don't have any logging and offer advanced features for security. Netflix is supported, but doesn't work on most of the servers (they can't overcome the Netflix bans with such a small server base). Other streaming is supported, as is torrenting. However, a deal-breaker for many who need to use Hide.me as a VPN for India, the speed takes a big hit, with 60-75% download speed decrease over no VPN.
Variety of free and paid plan options.
No logging, and advanced features for extra protection.
Torrenting, Netflix, and streaming supported (though Netflix is hit or miss).
Starting at $11.99/Month
Get CyberGhost VPN Read Review
CyberGhost is a VPN provider based in Romania. They have around 2,700 servers in 60 countries and offer advanced configurable software that is still easy-to-use. Standard encryption is the norm, and up to 7 devices can be connected per account, with a strict no-logging policy. The interface is easy-to-use and friendly, and both torrenting and Netflix/other streaming services are fully supported. The only downsides are a relatively slow speed compared to the top-tier options, with 40-50% download speed hits, and some weak customer support, but prices and features are appealing, making this a viable VPN for India.
Lower cost than some of the top-tier alternatives.
Good server and geographic base.
Standard features and a good interface.
Torrenting and Netflix/streaming are fully supported.
What Makes the Best VPN for India?
The best VPN for India needs to offer standard features and technology, be secure and reliable, with high-speed access, a large base of locations and servers, and, ideally, be easy to use. At the same time, now-standard features such as supporting torrenting and video streaming are incredibly important, since those are some of the things that have been blocked and banned in the past in India. And, like all services, the price needs to be reasonable for the service, regarding comparison to competitors and for the features/level of service you receive.
Why are Sites Blocked in India?
As earlier seen some sites have been blocked or remain blocked in India. There's not much rhyme or reason to it from the outside, and it mostly stems from either court orders or selective enforcement, often based on entertainment companies with deep pockets seeking to stem piracy through brute force, or due to politicians and political ideology differences. And some blockages are merely the result of heavy-handed attempts to filter by IP or DNS, which can cause a lot of collateral damage to otherwise acceptable sites.
Is It Legal to Use a VPN in India?
At present, there is no law prohibiting the use of a VPN in India. So long as you are using the VPN for otherwise legal activities, and not using it to commit crimes, then there is no ban on using an India VPN. As always, though, laws around technology are fluid and subject to change, but this information was confirmed accurate as of the time of publishing this review.
Best India VPN in 2018 – Summary
In all of the above in considerations, the best India VPN options are ExpressVPN and NordVPN. These two leaders offer all the features and security necessary while maintaining high-speed servers in many countries. They offer torrenting and streaming, which as we said is extremely important since many torrent sites are often on the ban list in India. These companies are dedicated to the privacy of their users, with no-logging policies, and provide reliable, high-speed service, easy-to-use interfaces, and great performance.

On 31 October 2011, the world population surpassed 7 billion people. As inhabitants of Earth first, and investors second, should we be concerned?
According to economist and demographer Richard Hokenson, founder of Hokenson & Company and a keynote speaker at the CFA Institute travelling conference Investment Opportunities and Risks in Africa, the answer is no. Instead, we should be concerned that the world population is projected to shrink as it ages — and as a result the global labor force will soon be declining.
The population growth rate peaked in 1972 at 2.1% and is currently estimated at 1.9%.
Approximately 26.3% of the world's population is younger than 15 years old; 65.9% is between the ages of 15 and 64; and 7.9% is 65 years or older.
Labor force participation (i.e., the percentage of the total population 15 years and older) peaked in 1990 at 66.5%. In 2009 it was 64.7%.
So what are the economic and investment implications of these trends?
For Hokenson, the data suggest that we should expect low interest rates, slow nominal GDP growth, and the risk of deflation in more developed countries. In his recent interview with CFA Magazine, "The Race to Zero," Hokenson discussed the strong causal relationship between labor force growth and nominal GDP growth. He finds that countries with low population growth and aging populations have slow labor force growth — and that in turn leads to slow nominal GDP growth, which holds down nominal interest rates and creates a structurally disinflationary environment with risks of deflation.
Unfortunately, a slow-growth, low-interest-rate, deflationary environment does not bode well for pension plans, and we can expect the gap to widen between portfolio yields and the returns required to fund long-term liabilities. It also does not bode well for individual investors who are either approaching retirement or are already retired and who need income-producing assets to support their lifestyles. These factors suggest that both institutional as well individual investors must seek out and invest in riskier assets to achieve the higher returns that they need.
In Africa, new workers as a percentage of the global labor force are expected to reach 30% in 2020, up from 12% during the 1980–1990 period. Although Asia had the highest percentage of new workers (70% in the 1980–1990 period), the ranks of Asian workers are expected to decline to roughly 58% by 2020 due to low birth rates.
In Africa, 41% of the population is less than 15 years of age, versus 27% for the world at large, and 16% for more developed countries. Similarly, only 4% of the African population is over the age of 65, versus 8% for the world, and 16% for more developed countries.
Africa also has the highest total fertility rate in the world: 4.7 births per woman, versus 2.5 births per woman for the world, and 1.7 for developed countries.
Equally as important, the proportion of the African population with secondary and tertiary education is forecasted to increase significantly by 2050.
Nominal GDP growth will be higher than in the rest of the world and in more developed countries in particular.
Higher nominal GDP growth will generate higher interest rates and create an environment with higher rates of inflation and a reduced risk of deflation.
Earnings of Africa-based companies will increase at a faster rate than those based in the developed world.
Africa will become an increasingly important contributor to the revenues and earnings of companies based elsewhere.
Higher population growth, a younger population, and strong labor force growth also suggest a burgeoning middle class and a greater demand for consumer goods and services, including housing, retail goods, and technology. This is why Hokenson views Africa so favorably. He believes that the continent will be the beneficiary of aging populations in more developed countries. As labor forces in these countries decline, advanced economies will begin to outsource or expand current operations in Africa because this is not only where the labor supply is but also where there is an opportunity for higher output and productivity. This trend, in turn, will create greater demand for capital investment and infrastructure as well as property, plants, and equipment.
The 3-D Hurricane: Finding Opportunities in Challenging Markets: In this audio podcast, Robert Arnott describes a daunting capital market environment that will struggle to perform in the face of three challenges: demographics, debt, and deficits. He argues that the three pillars of successful investing are stocks, bonds, and low-correlation real-return assets.
Demographic Trends and Their Investment Implication: In this video interview, Amlan Roy discusses the implications of demographic trends for geographic regions, countries, and industries. He discusses similarities and differences among consumers and workers, as well as the short-, intermediate-, and long-term effects of these differences on interest rates, economic growth, asset prices, housing, inflation, and government spending.

The 2015 controversy over an apartment building at 43rd & Upton has long since subsided, though area business owners still have concerns about parking in the business district. Photo by Nate Gotlieb
In the summer of 2015, residents of Linden Hills and surrounding communities sent scores of comments to Ward 13 City Council Member Linea Palmisano and city planners about a proposed four-story, 56-foot mixed-use apartment building at the old Famous Dave's site in the heart of the 43rd & Upton commercial district.
Residents, many of whom expressed opposition to the project, said they feared it would ruin the character of the neighborhood, that the proposed building design didn't fit with the area and that it would tower over nearby buildings.
"The proposed development is too big for the location and would destroy the rare and much-loved atmosphere of downtown Linden Hills," Hannah Pepin wrote.
The apartment project had its particularities — notably the fact that a previous development fight on the site had led to the creation of a small area plan that called for building heights of no more than 42 feet on the site. But many of the concerns raised by Linden Hills residents echo those expressed by other homeowners and businesspeople as new apartment buildings sprout up across Minneapolis and leaders in City Hall push to increase housing density in every corner of the city.
While proposals for new apartment buildings are routinely debated and resisted, less attention has been paid to how those buildings actually impact their neighborhoods once they are in the ground.
In Linden Hills, the building on the Famous Dave's site, Linden43, has been open for over two years. People young and old live in its 29 one- and two-bedroom units. Bremer Bank, Copilot Dog Outfitters and Mint Orthodontics make their home in its first floor. While there may still be hard feelings over the long process that took place over the site, most business owners and residents of the area have moved on.
Tim Galligan, who lived on the 3900 block of Thomas Avenue in 2015, was one of the Linden Hills residents who opposed it. "It seems that when a developer is involved, politics plays a bigger role," he wrote to Palmisano in 2015. "I do not see density as a condition for getting a variance but it seems to be a hidden agenda."
In an October interview, he said he thinks the site looks better now that it has the building on it. "I think [the building] is pretty appropriate for the neighborhood," he said. "It seems to fit."
Galligan said his bigger problem is with the development process. "[The city] gives you a forum to vent, but you feel like you're not heard," he said.
Worries about 'charm'
Linden43 opened in August 2017, two years after receiving city approval.
It was the third project proposed for the site, which is zoned as a C1 "Neighborhood Commercial District." Development in C1 districts can be three stories or 42 feet by right, though the City Council has discretion to increase height, with conditions. (The Minneapolis 2040 Plan, which takes effect this year, allows development of up to four stories on the site.)
The first project planned for the site, formally proposed by Linden Hills resident Mark Dwyer in 2011, was a five-story, 40-unit condo building with commercial space. Dozens of Linden Hills residents and business owners opposed the plans, citing concerns such as parking and the area losing its "charm."
"The sheer magnitude of the proposed Linden Corner development would forever destroy the character and the scale of what many of us, including this developer, refer to as the 'village,'" Clancey's Meats & Fish owner Kristin Tombers wrote in a February 2012 Southwest Journal op-ed. (Tombers declined to comment for this story.)
Some residents and business owners organized and appealed a February 2012 Planning Commission approval of the project. The next month, the City Council nixed the plans and placed a moratorium on large-scale development in Linden Hills to allow for the creation of a small-area plan, which is intended to serve as a guide for development in the neighborhood.
The plan, approved in December 2013, calls for building heights that reflect the "adjacent architectural context" and are shorter than what the zoning code allows.
But before the plan was approved, in October 2012, Dwyer received approval for a three-story condo building on the site that didn't require a conditional-use permit for the building height. In July 2014, he asked for and received a conditional-use permit to add an extra story to the building.
In February 2015, developer Clark Gassen purchased the site from Dwyer and pitched plans for the current four-story building that sits there today.
Dwyer and Gassen declined to comment for this story.
The three homeowners who live closest to Linden43 said it hasn't had that much of an impact on them. Some Linden Hills residents had written in comments to Palmisano and city staffers that they worried about the building shadowing those homes.
"The details make a difference," said Jason Krause, who manages his family's liquor store in South Minneapolis and owns the home closest to the site. He said living next to the development has been fine and that construction was less disruptive than he thought it would be.
He and neighbors Judy Myers and Jeff Mellas said simply having a building on the property has given them more privacy. When the site was empty, people could see into their yards from the Linden Hills business district.
Mellas, who lived in New York before moving into Linden Hills in July 2014, said the building is attractive and "doesn't create any noise that wasn't there already."
"The apartment building hasn't really decreased any standard of living," he said.
Bill Geddes, who owns a house abutting France Avenue, was one of the few local residents to write in support of the variance in 2015.
Today, he said he thinks the building looks great. "I haven't noticed any issues with increased traffic," he said. "I think overall it's been nothing but good."
He said he thinks there are a lot of positives to allowing higher-density housing, including that it allows for economic diversity within neighborhoods.
Still, concerns over parking remain, especially for businesses in the node.
Paul Beach, an employee of Coffee and Tea Limited along 43rd Street, said parking in the area is a "nightmare." Steve Arnold, owner of the Great Harvest Bakery franchise in the node, said parking is crucial to the success of the area's local businesses.
Palmisano, who represents Linden Hills and supported the project in 2015, said she no longer hears concerns about the building but does hear concerns about parking in the area.
She said she's glad there's something on the corner rather than an empty restaurant space and that she doesn't think the building has affected the area's character.
Anders Culver rents a one-bedroom apartment on the third floor of Linden43. The 29-year-old software engineer, who has lived in different neighborhoods of South Minneapolis over the past 4-5 years, said he didn't hear too much about the prolonged fight over the building's approval until after he moved in.
He frequents local restaurants like Zumbro Cafe and the (now closed) Rose Street Patisserie and said he's never been made to feel unwelcome in the neighborhood because he lives in Linden43.
"I've never really noticed any hostile neighbors," he said. "If we told people we lived in Linden43, they didn't turn their noses up at us or anything."

was de zeventiende keizer van Japan, volgens de traditionele opvolgingsvolgorde.

Er zijn geen exacte data bekend omtrent zijn geboorte, regeerperiode en dood. Richū zou ergens in de vroege 5e eeuw over Japan hebben geheerst. De meest gangbare periode die aan hem wordt toegeschreven is 400 tot 405.

Volgens Nihonshoki en Kojiki was Richū de eerste zoon van keizer Nintoku. Hij zou in het zesde jaar van zijn regeerperiode zijn gestorven aan een ziekte. Zijn graftombe bevindt zich in de provincie Kawachi, in het midden van de huidige prefectuur Osaka. Hij werd opgevolgd door zijn jongere broer, Hanzei. Geen van zijn eigen zonen erfde de troon, maar twee van zijn kleinzonen werden later wel keizer: Kenzo en Ninken.

Sommige geleerden identificeren Richū met Koning San in het Boek van de Song. San zond tweemaal (in 421 en 425) boodschappers naar de Liu Song-dynastie, en werd na zijn dood ook opgevolgd door zijn jongere broer.

The large body of structural knowledge that is currently available for CRM1 has contributed to atomic level and mechanistic understanding of many steps in the CRM1 nuclear export cycle. However, structural analysis could still inform on several outstanding questions and guide future discoveries pertaining to CRM1-mediated nuclear export. The most glaring gap in current structural knowledge of this transport pathway concerns the lack of CRM1-nucleoporin structures. Are there different classes of CRM1-nucleoporin interactions, such as ones for docking onto the NPC and others for translocation? The mechanism of RanBP3 facilitated cargo loading in the nucleus is also unclear at this time, and structural work of complexes containing CRM1 and RanBP3 should shed light on this process. In addition to its hundreds of protein cargos, CRM1 also exports a subset of mRNAs in a Ran-dependent and LMB-sensitive fashion [20], [124], [125], [126], [127], [128], [129], [130], [131]. mRNA export by CRM1 likely requires NES-containing adaptors but it is currently not known if there is a general mRNA adaptor for CRM1 or specific adaptors for different mRNAs [132]. It is also not known if CRM1 shares binding interfaces with mRNA or other nucleic Sennoside C australia cargos. Structural analysis of CRM1-nucleic acid complexes may be possible and useful once identities of their adaptors are known. Finally, recent reports suggest that CRM1 is a relevant target for cancer and potentially inflammatory diseases, and efforts to design and develop CRM1 inhibitors for therapeutics has and should continue benefiting from the large body of structural data on the pathway [133], [134], [135], [136], [137]. Atomic understanding of the different steps of the CRM1 cycle and the different conformational states of CRM1 should guide discovery of reversible inhibitors for the NES binding groove and perhaps allosteric inhibitors that control CRM1 activity through binding at sites far from the NES groove.

Introduction Nucleocytoplasmic trafficking of proteins and RNAs is mediated by the nuclear exporter chromosome region maintenance 1 (CRM1, also known as exportin 1 or XPO1) protein, which has over 230 identified cargos (Xu et al., 2012). The protein plays a critical role in nuclear export of growth and survival factors in eukaryotic cells, including transformed cells. Certain natural products (e.g., leptomycin B, ratjadone, anguinomycin, and goniothalamin (Hamamoto et al., 1985, Komiyama et al., 1985, Hayakawa et al., 1995, Kudo et al., 1998, Kudo et al., 1999, Daelemans et al., 2002, Kau et al., 2004, Meissner et al., 2004, Bonazzi et al., 2007, Mutka et al., 2009, Wach et al., 2010, Turner et al., 2012)) are inhibitors of CRM1. This discovery led to the development of CRM1-specif ic small molecules (e.g., N-azolylacrylates, KOS-2464, and CBS9106) as potentially useful, anti-cancer agents (Mutka et al., 2009, Sakakibara et al., 2011, Turner et al., 2012). These include the potent, second-generation CRM1-selective inhibitors of nuclear export (designated as SINE) class of agents that has added further promise of this targeted strategy for the elimination of malignant cells (Etchin et al., 2013a). Indeed, in vitro experimental scenarios have shown that the blockade of CRM1 transport by these inhibitors can induce cancer cell death, which is believed to occur by the forced nuclear retention of tumor-suppressors, transcriptional factors that are inactive in these cells due to aberrant CRM1 transport into the cytoplasm. Furthermore, treatment of various solid tumors and hematological malignancies with SINE compounds has been shown to block transformed cell proliferation and induce apoptosis in these cells in vivo (Mutka et al., 2009, Sakakibara et al., 2011, Turner et al., 2012). SINE compounds apparently have limited toxicity in normal human cells, which enhances the overall therapeutic index of these agents (Etchin et al., 2013b). In particular, KPT-330, with its well-established pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamics properties, including high oral bioavailability, is a promising SINE that has recently entered into clinical trials. In this review, we present the cellular biology associated with the nuclear export of proteins/RNAs by CRM1, and outline the preclinical and potential clinical impact of the regulation of this protein function as a candidate therapeutic target in human malignancies.

Your home is your private space – the place you go to unwind and kickback. It only makes sense to create an environment that's personal and comfortable. You don't need superb decorating skills to give your space a personal touch, nor do you need to spend a lot of money. Not satisfied with your present decor? Don't fret. Here are four suggestions on ways to make your home quaint and comfortable.
1. Show your pride. Whether you're a citizen of the United States or born in another country, pay homage to your birth nation with patriotic pieces. The selection is endless. Greet houseguests with a patriotic wooden banner hung from your front door, or browse the selection of front porch flags from websites like the Flag Shop. Looking for a fun way to "wow" guests? Serve up dinner on patriotic dishes, or decorate your couch with pillows bearing your nation's colors. Other home additions might include a patriotic lamp or novelty pieces (such as an Uncle Sam clock).
2. Seasonal decor. The same home decor month-after-month is boring. Spice up your life and your living space with decor that reflects the change of season. Not to say you have to redo your entire living space every four months. Simply bring in new additions to complement your existing style. Want to make an impression in the fall? Add flare to your front porch with a harvest wreath, fall plants and etched pumpkins. Create a pumpkin flower vase for your dining room table or decorate your mantel with smaller pumpkins spray painted with rich, deep fall colors. Welcome spring with colorful flowers in pastel containers, or create a wreath or centerpiece filled with painted eggs.
3. Comfortable additions. A chilly home isn't very inviting. Rather than crank up the heat, think of comfortable, but practical ways to add warmth. For example, position an electrical fireplace in the corner of your living room or den, and safely position candles around the room to create a cozy, relaxing ambiance. Want to really snuggle up in front of the television? Consider a plush, electrical blanket. It's the perfect addition to a cold winter's night.
4. Highlight your travels. Personalize your space with decor or unique pieces from different places around the world. For each city or country that you visit, make an effort to bring home at least one distinct souvenir. This might be a hand-carved wooden walking stick from Jamaica, a wooden flute from the Bahamas or perhaps a coconut water canteen from Costa Rica. Proudly display these items on your mantel or a shelf. These items are not only conversation pieces, but they'll give your house a personal touch.
Tired of your boring house? There are plenty of ways to add fun and excitement. Think outside the box and you're sure to uncover pieces that will create a "wow" factor.
SAT Prep: How Early is Too Early?
I love the flag idea they're cute, I recently added an electric fireplace to my living room and I absolutely love it. I also love the idea of displaying items from past travels.

Q: Simplest Unhalvable Shape Consider a connected 3D-printable shape such as the below. It appears that any plane passing through the centroid will divide the shape into more than two pieces.  Define a shape with this property unhalvable.

Would the simplest unhalvable shape be topologically equivalent to a sphere, a torus, or something else?
What are some simple unhalvable shapes?
Is the below embedding of the Trefoil knot unhalvable?

A: I'd venture that it would be a sphere. Take a shape like the one you have above in $\mathbb{R}^3$ (which is topologically equivalent to a torus) and cut it somewhere. I guess that it's still "unhalvable", but is now topologically equivalent to a sphere.
One example of an unhalvable shape which I can think of is the co-ordinate axis in $\mathbb{R}^3$.
Whether the trefoil knot is unhalvable would seem to depend on how you embed it in $\mathbb{R}^3$ - because that would change where your plane intersects it. You probably would need to define "unhalvable" a little more rigorously to ask questions like that.


The Under 19s return to league business this coming Saturday when Rangers are the visitors to the Creamery Park, Bathgate.
The Steelmen are top of the Clydesdale Bank Under 19s League Table but have played more games than some of the closest challengers.
Indeed, Saturday's opponents Rangers have a 100% record having won their first three games but sit sixth in the table such is the unpredictable nature of the fixture scheduling.
So it's sure to be a fairly even, exciting encounter with plenty at stake for both teams.
Head of Youth Development Gordon Young said, "Games against the Old Firm are always special no matter what level you play at.
"However, we will treat this game no different to any other we face. The players are buoyed by a good SFA Youth Cup result last weekend and go into the game in good form.
The game will kick-off at 11am – Entry for spectators is free of charge and 'Well fans are encouraged along to give the youngsters plenty of support.
Referee for Saturday's trip to Ibrox will be the relatively unfamiliar face of Stephen Finnie.
The 40-year-old, a Grade One official for almost five years, will be taking charge of only his third Motherwell game.
The first, in his 'debut' season, was back in March 2007 when a Scott McDonald double gave 'Well a comfortable 2-0 win over Dunfermline at Fir Park.
His second, some seven months later, came when 'Well, under the tutorship of Mark McGhee, went down 1-0 to Dundee United at Tannadice courtesy of a Darren Dods header twelve minutes from time.
The last and final 'Well appointment was at the tail end of last season, when he oversaw the 3-1 home win against Hearts last March when goals from Mark Reynolds, John Sutton and Jim O'Brien handed Craig Brown's men an excellent three points.
In those three games, Finnie has flashed sixteen yellow cards; seven of them at players wearing Claret and Amber. No-one, as yet, has been sent for an early bath.
Finnie will be ably assisted by Billy Baxter and Brian Templeton with Anthony Law on fourth official duties.
'Well fans wishing to go to the game against Rangers this coming Saturday should note that tickets are only on sale until Friday afternoon.
Tickets will not be on sale from Fir Park or Ibrox on the day of the game.
Chris Humphrey admits he would jump at the chance to play for Scotland after confirming he qualifies through his Kilmarnock-born mother.
The Motherwell winger has been in scintillating form this campaign and has won rave reviews for his recent performances.
So much so, some have already touted him as a potential call-up, a prospect that excites the 23-year-old.
"I was born in Jamaica but playing for Scotland would obviously be brilliant," said Humphrey.
"I am delighted that I qualify and would welcome any chance to be part of Craig Levein's plans. My mother left Scotland when she was six or seven years old to stay in England. She then moved to Jamaica when she was 16.
Humphrey moved north last summer after an outstanding season with English League Two club Shrewsbury Town.
However, despite an offer than may have taken him all the way to the Barclays Premier League and a difficult first season both on and off the pitch, Humphrey is adamant he made the right move.
"My first season was difficult because of events off the pitch," he said in reference to his partner suffering a miscarriage. "On the pitch, it was also difficult to get a game with Jim O'Brien playing so well.
With the birth of his baby daughter recently, coupled with Craig Brown giving him the attacking licence his game merits, the speed merchant has been turning in spectacular performances, most notably in the recent 2-0 win over Hearts at Tynecastle.
"We play as a three in attack and the gaffer has really simple instructions for me. He just tells me to attack the full-back, to do what I am good at," he smiled.

A school official in central China has been sentenced to one year in jail for ringing a bell too early forcing students to hand in their national college entrance exam almost five minutes before the test should have ended, the state media said.
The national entrance exam is a very competitive test in which high school students battle for the limited number of spots in the country's universities. Winning a spot in the university brings pride and prestige to the student and their families. Those who go to university achieve great social advancement.
A school official from the province of Hunan, Xiao Yulong, 54, admitted that he made a mistake and rang the school bell four minutes and 48 seconds early, forcing the 1,050 students to turn in their exams before the proper time, local media reported.
The incident lead to hundreds of students with their parents to demand that the government open an investigation. Xiao was negligent in his work and in error he rang the bell early. People believe that his ringing the bell early had a negative impact on their kids because they were not able to complete the exam.
The court sentenced Xiao to one year in jail for negligence, however, the judge sentenced him to time served.

Summary: St Thérése of the Child Jesus, Virgin, Doctor of the ChurchBorn at Alençon (France) in 1873; died of tuberculosis at Lisieux on 30 September 1897. From a devout family, she entered a Carmelite monastery at fifteen, where she embraced the suffering of her ill-health with love and in service to the missionary spread of the gospel. Known through her popular autobiography and loved for her unaffected simplicity. Noted for her humble obedience and her fidelity to ordinary duties as the path to sanctity.
St Thérèse of Lisieux shows us the power of humility and of her "little way" spirituality to advance in holiness. In Jesus's garden of souls, she saw herself as "a little flower". Patrick Duffy outlines her short life.
T hérèse was born at Alençon, the youngest of five daughters of Louis Martin, a watchmaker, and his wife Azélie-Marie Guérin, who died when Thérèse was four years old. The family moved to Lisieux and in her mother's absence Thérèse looked to her elder sister Pauline as a mother. Thérèse was nine when Pauline entered the Carmelite monastery at Lisieux and she missed her. A second sister Marie followed. By the time Thérèse was fourteen, she too wanted to enter. She went with her father to Rome to appeal to Pope Leo XIII and although the Pope's reply was non-committal, she was allowed to enter the convent a year early for her age. She took the name of Thérèse of the Infant Jesus.
Her parents
Her parents, Louis (1823-1894) and Marie Zelie Guerin Martin (1831-1877), had nine children, five of whom joined religious orders. They themselveswill be beatified at Lisieux on Mission Sunday, 19 October, 2015.
The "little way"
Convent life was difficult for Thérèse. The prioress was severe and she herself had doubts about her vocation. But Thérése found what she called her "little way" – not trying great mortifications, but accepting everything and doing God's will with great love, convinced that she was a "little soul". This was her way of combating the temptation to pride.
Thérèse was appointed assistant novice mistress and she set down her "little way" in a book, The Story of A Soul, that became enormously popular when it was published (although with some doctoring) by the Carmelites soon after her death. An extract shows us how she came to be called "The Little Flower".
'Jesus set before me the book of nature. I understand how all the flowers God has created are beautiful, how the splendour of the rose and the whiteness of the lily do not take away the perfume of the violet or the delightful simplicity of the daisy. I understand that if all flowers wanted to be roses, nature would lose her springtime beauty, and the fields would no longer be decked out with little wild flowers. So it is in the world of souls, Jesus' garden. He has created smaller ones and those must be content to be daisies or violets destined to give joy to God's glances when He looks down at His feet. Perfection consists in doing His will, in being what He wills us to be.'
Contact with missionaries
A missionary gave Thérèse a copy of the Life and letters of Venerable Théophane Vénard, a priest of the Paris Foreign Missionary Society, who had been martyred in Vietnam some years previously. She was inspired by his example to volunteer for the new Carmelite monastery in Hanoi. But her health was declining from the tuberculosis she had contracted, so that was not on. However, she wrote a series of moving letters to two missionaries in Vietnam.
Her death and influence
The last eighteen months of her life were a slow and painful agony. Besides the physical breathlessness and discomfort, she experienced a real dark night of the soul. Most of the pages of her book were written at this time.
She died on 30 September 1897, clutching the relic of Venerable Théophane. She became hugely popular when her book, The Story of a Soul, was published and many cures took place through her intercession. People loved the simplicity of her "little way". When Pope Pius XI canonised her in 1925, he proclaimed her principal patron of all missionaries. In the centenary to mark her death, Pope John Paul II declared her a doctor of the Church.
